P.S. I just found out what Icha Icha paradise means. Flirting Paradise! I mean seriously! Even the name has me wanting to puke! (I hate sappy romance stuff like 'flirting' or books like Icha Icha Paradise, but I can write small amounts of romance it like in this story)

CHAPTER 6: Chuunin Exams & Kagome's Secret

Kagome sighed as she waited at the bridge with squad 7.

'What us taking him so long! He's probably reading that stupid Icha Icha Paradise book. Pervert,'

"5, 4, 3, 2, 1…" Kagome muttered

"WHAT IS TAKING HIM SO LONG!" Naruto screamed.

"Bingo, Naruto you are so predictable!" Kagome said rolling her eyes.

"Am not!" Naruto and Kagome said at the same time.

"Yes you are." Kagome teased.

"NO I'M NOT!" they yelled at the same time.

"Naruto just admit defeat." Sakura said.

"No!" they yelled together.

"Hi, sorry I'm late. I got lost on the path of life." Kakashi said from above the roof.

"YOU LIAR!" Sakura and Naruto yelled while Kagome muttered.

"Kagome what are you doing?" Kakashi asked.

"Proving that it is easy to predict what Naruto is about to say." Kagome answered.

"I am not predictable." Naruto and Kagome yelled at the same time.

"I'm sorry, but you are Naruto, you'll admit it sooner or later." Kakashi sighed.

"Now, I know this is a bit sudden, but I recommended you for the Chuunin exams, all 4 of you. These are the application forms." Kakashi explained.

"Application forms?" Sakura asked.

"You're repeating me Sakura. This is all voluntary for each of you, if you don't feel up to it; you can wait 'til next year." Kakashi sighed.

"ALL RIGHT!" Naruto screamed. "Kakashi-sensei, you rock!" he yelled and jumped at Kakashi, hugging him.

"Ah, don't slobber on my vest! Whoever wants to take the exams, fill out the forms and come to room 301 at the academy: It's at 3pm in 5 days from now, that's it." Kakashi explained handing out each form.

"Ha-ha Chuunin Exams, Chuunin Exams!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Yes Naruto, Chuunin Exams, Wow!" Kagome said. (I only just realised but Kagome, now, behaves like I do, Lol)

"Kagome? Is it alright if I talk to you about something?" Kakashi asked.

"Yeah sure," Kagome said as the others left.

"Kagome, you know how you were able to tell what Naruto was about to say?" Kakashi asked and Kagome nodded.

"Well, you can use that in fighting, What I would like you to do in the next 5 days is to train with other people besides Naruto, study them while you fight them and then figure out there fighting style. By doing this you'll be able to predict what they are about to do next, do you understand?" Kakashi explained.

"Kind of, you want me to play with them at the start and see how they fight, to figure out there style to help predict what their next move is, am I correct?" Kagome asked.

Kakashi nodded. "Well, I better go, practice the technique." He said before he disappeared in a puff of smoke.

'Okay then, let's find someone to train with.' Kagome decided and ran off looking for a training partner.

With Sakura

Sakura sighed as she walked down the path with Naruto and Sasuke.

'This is hopeless, I can't keep up with Sasuke or Kagome, and I can't even beat Naruto. I'll never pass these exams.' she sighed and stopped walking.

'I think I might go practice a bit.' She decided and headed towards the nearest training grounds.

As Sakura neared the training place, she heard fighting.

"I thought you said you wanted to practice, this is more like dodging or running away!" Someone yelled.

'I-InuYasha?'

"Oh, I am practicing, I'm just not telling you what on." Someone else taunted.

'Kagome?'

Sakura hurried towards the grounds to see Rin and Shippo sitting there watching InuYasha and Kagome fight.

"Hey, what's happening?" Sakura asked.

"We ran into Kagome who was looking for someone to practice fighting on, so we recommended InuYasha, who has been complaining about needing a new training partner." Shippo explained.

"I see," Sakura said and sat down watching the battle.

"Come on, is this all you've got?" InuYasha taunted.

"Nope, as I said, I'm practicing a new technique, which doesn't exactly mean I will be fighting…, at first." Kagome smiled before she disappeared.

"Where the hell did you go? Get back here and fight Wrench!" InuYasha exclaimed.

"I'm over here." Kagome sighed and InuYasha turned around.

He swung his sword around and was about to hit her when she grabbed the blunt edge of the sword and pulled it out of his hands and into a tree where it turned into its old form.

Then Kagome appeared behind InuYasha, a kunai knife against his neck.

"I win!" Kagome sang before appearing in front of Shippo and Rin.

"Do you know of anyone else I can practice against who is better than him?" Kagome asked jerking a thumb at the sulking hanyou.

"As a matter of fact we do, my adopted father." Rin said and stood up. "I'll be back in a moment." She said before running off.

"You better be good Gome, or you'll die." Shippo sighed as he remembered when he was sparring with Sesshomaru.

"Oh I am Shippo." Kagome laughed and turned to Sakura.

"Hey, what's the matter?" she asked frowning.

"Nothing is wrong." Sakura disagreed.

"Yeah, and I'm the Kazekage of Suna, what's the matter?" Kagome pushed sitting in front of her. Sakura frowned at her choice of words when she remembered Kagome's past. Sighing she answered.

"I'm hopeless Kagome. I can't keep up with you or Sasuke, Naruto even. I suck and I'm weak! I won't be able to pass the exams." Sakura exclaimed.

"You are only weak if you think you are weak." Kagome said looking up at the sky. "I was hopeless when I started at the academy at home." She sighed. "The worst in the class and everyone teased me but with training from my best friend, family and me never losing hope, I ended up top of the class. And it was because I wasn't afraid to ask for help and because I never gave up on myself." Kagome smiled and turned to Sakura.

"Listen, if you don't give up and try harder, I'll help you, train you even." Kagome decided.

"Y-you would do that for me?" Sakura asked in disbelief.

"Yes of course, you're my teammate and we need to help each other to make it to the top." Kagome explained.

"Really? Thank-you!" Sakura exclaimed and hugged Kagome. Shippo smiled at his Mother.

"No problem, now where is my new victim?" Kagome asked getting up.

"Here!" Rin said as she walked out of the trees with someone behind her.

Sakura smiled at the man behind Rin and Kagome smiled at the challenge.

"Kagome, this is my Father, Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru, this is Kagome." Rin introduced.

"So, you ready to get your ass kicked?" Kagome asked.

"Hn," Sesshomaru replied pulling out his sword and they began to fight.

"You know you should believe what Kagome said." Shippo commented.

"My Mum had the exact same attitude in life and she ended up one of the strongest people here, besides Uncle Kakashi and Grandpa that is." Shippo said. "She was always telling InuYasha and the others to never give up and always try your hardest, even if you think there is no point."

"Yep, Aunty Kags was always happy, even when everything was taking a turn to the worse; she just smiled and kept trying. She sacrificed a lot for us." Rin sighed. "I miss her." She sighed.

"Same," Shippo agreed and Sakura gave a small smile.

'Thank you Kagome.' Sakura thought as she watched Kagome spar against Sesshomaru.

Okay, so you know what happens when Iruka tests all 9 leaf village rookies (or 10 in the stories case) so I'm not going to type it up. I also don't want to type it up as I think it is a waste of space.

Everyday Kagome and Sakura would disappear to train with each other. The only rules were to never give in and train til you can't train no more (or until one of them says stop, which neither did.)

Everyday Sakura would get stronger and believe in herself a little more and everyday Sakura and Kagome would become closer.

They both decided not to tell or show neither Naruto nor Sasuke of their new skills until the very last possible moment.

Then the day came for the Exam.

Naruto, Sasuke and Kagome were already there when Sakura finally arrived.

"Hey Sakura, you're late!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Ah right, sorry guys," Sakura said and when she turned to Sasuke memories of what happened earlier that week came to mind. "Morning Sasuke," she said.

"Yeah," Sasuke answered.

'What's up with her? She's different.' Sasuke realised.

With everyone else

Everyone watched as the 2 kids wouldn't let anyone into the room. They watched as they kicked a kid away.

"You're taking the Chuunin exams but you can't even get passed us." One of the boys scoffed.

"Why don't you just give up now before you get hurt?" The other one sneered.

"Yeah, I think I hear your Mummy calling you." The 1st one said.

"Please let us through, we're suppose to go in there." TenTen exclaimed as she walked up to them.

One of the boys knocked her away and she landed next to Lee. Everyone started muttering about how harsh they were.

"Did you say harsh?" the 1st boy asked. "Don't kid yourself, were begin nice to you by comparison. The exams are going to make this look like a picnic." He said.

"Some of you won't survive the exam, others will be wrecked for life and some of you may go crazy. For Chuunin it's always life or death." The other boy added.

Sasuke, Kagome, Naruto and Sakura arrived as they were on about how Chuunin are qualified to lead missions and stuff like that.

"Real nice speech, but both of you step aside and let me through." Sasuke said he then stepped away from the group. "And while you're at it, reverse the Genjutsu, we can see through your illusion anyway. We're going to the third floor."

"What does he mean? Where on the 3rd floor," Someone asked. "I know," Someone answered.

"Well, Well." The blue haired boy said.

"So you noticed the Genjutsu huh?" the other asked.

"Go ahead Sakura; you probably noticed it before anyone else did." Sasuke said.

"Huh?" Sakura asked not expecting Sasuke to ask her something.

"You have the sharpest eyes and the best analytical skills in our squad; you must have seen this coming a mile away." He said.

"I must have? Well sure, Of course, I spotted it right away. This is only the second floor." Sakura smirked.

"Right!" Naruto said As Kagome winked at Sakura.

The Genjutsu reversed and the sign said 201 instead of 301.

"Well, aren't we the smart ones, so you noticed an illusion." The boy laughed. "Now let's see you deal with this!" he yelled and aimed a kick at Sasuke.

Sasuke noticed this and was about to kick when Lee ran in between them grabbing both of their legs.

'How did he do that? I thought he was some weakling getting knocked around like that. But he's as fast as Sasuke.' Sakura thought.

Kagome suddenly appeared behind Lee.

"Let go of my teammate." She said emotionlessly.

'He stopped my kick, that's some Chakra he's got in his arm.' Sasuke realised.

"Hey, what happened to the plan?" Some asked Lee. "I thought you were the one who said to keep a low profile and don't let anyone see our skill level."

"I know but…" Lee turned around and walked to Sakura.

"My name is Rock Lee, You are Sakura, right?" he asked.

"Huh?"

Lee suddenly had a huge smile. "Please be my girl friend, I vow to protect you with my life." He said.

"Definitely… not," Sakura said.

"Why?" Lee asked heartbroken.

"Because you're a weirdo," Sakura answered.

Kagome suddenly laughed. "Aw man, the fan-girl has a fan-boy!" she exclaimed and Naruto started laughing with her.

"Hey you, what's your name?" some asked Sasuke. He had pupil-less lavender eyes and long brown hair

"It's common courtesy to give your own name before asking for someone else's." Sasuke replied.

"Hey, you're a rookie aren't you, How old are you anyway?" he asked.

"I'm not obliged to answer." Sasuke said.

"What's that?" the guy asked annoyed. Sasuke turned around and walked to the others.

"Hey team, let's go." Kagome said and Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto followed.

"A team of 4, that's rare." Someone muttered.

Behind the door of room 201 the 2 boys started talking.

"So that's the bunch of misfits that Kakashi and Gai have been going on about, I guess they passed the first test of getting their applications through." One boy said.

"Right," the other said before they turned back into their older self.

Kagome then turned around.

"Oh yeah, ah you 2 boys in 201, nice try but I know you are Jounin, no one is that skilled if they are Chuunin." She laughed and the 2 boys/ men looked at each other in shock.

As squad walked up the stairs, Kagome couldn't help but laugh.

"Man, I wish I saw those Jounin's faces!" Kagome laughed and Sakura rolled her eyes.

I'm not gonna write the fight between Lee and Sasuke as it is the same as in the episode (episode 22 to be exact)

When squad 7 arrived at the door, they found Kakashi-sensei standing there, reading.

"Oh, what is it about those books that you like too much?" Kagome exclaimed.

"Wouldn't you like to know?" Kakashi said and Kagome appeared in front of him, book in hand and her eyebrow raised as she read it.

"Honestly, this is worse than that movie Naruto and I watched." Kagome said as she turned the page.

"What was the movie called?" she asked Naruto.

"Was it Confessions of a Shopaholic?" Naruto answered.

"That's the one." Kagome frowned as she read a line out loud.

"'Oh it was my fault Cherry-Pie.' Alana exclaimed. 'No, it was my fault Snuggle-drops; I was the one who started it.' Honestly Kakashi, I think we need to have you looked at by a doctor." Kagome muttered before handing the book to Sasuke.

"Hey, are you able to burn this?" she asked.

"NO!" Kakashi yelled as Sasuke burned the book.

"Just talk Sensei; I want to watch my opponents." Kagome sighed.

"Okay, oh and glad you came Sakura, for your sake and the others." He said.

"Huh?" everyone asked.

"Now you can all formally register for the Chuunin exam."Kakashi finished.

"Why? What do you mean?" Sakura asked confused.

"You see, only groups of 3, or in our case 4, are allowed to apply for and take the exam. That's the way it's always been."

"I thought we could decide to come or not, you know, as an individual." Kagome said.

"That's right, I did." Kakashi replied.

"Was that a lie?" Sakura asked.

Kakashi looked out of the window.

"Sort of, it is an individual decision but it affects the others, I didn't tell you before because I didn't want the others pressuring you." He explained.

Everyone frowned.

"At the same time, I didn't want you to feel obliged because of any feelings you might have had for Sasuke or Naruto. I wanted you to come to a decision on your own free will." Kakashi said.

"Wait a minute, Do you mean if the others had shown up but I decided not to come with them-"

"It would have been the end of the line." Kakashi finished Sakura's sentence. "If you hadn't of come along, I wouldn't have been able to allow the others in. But it's a moot point you're all here and for the right reasons. Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke and Kagome, I'm proud of you." He said doing the one eye smile thing.

"I couldn't ask for a better team, good luck." He said as he stepped aside.

"We won't let you down Sensei!" Kagome and Naruto exclaimed at the same time. "Believe It!" Naruto added as they walked through the door.

Everyone looked around the room in shock.

'Man, I didn't think there would be this many people.' Sakura thought.

'YES! Lots of competitors! That means lots of battles, YAY!' Kagome cheered.

"Sasuke! Where have you been?" someone squealed as they latched onto him. "Boy, you have no idea how much I was hoping you would show up here, I miss those broody good looks of yours." Ino exclaimed while Sasuke glared at her.

"Hey you stalker, Back off, he's mine!" Sakura exclaimed.

"Miss Forehead, they let you in? Still got those big frown lines on your bill-bored brow, I see."
Ino said.

"Leave my forehead out of it!" Sakura growled and Ino stuck her tongue out at her.

"Honestly you guys, leave Sasuke alone, if you haven't realised yet, he's mine." Kagome joked. She couldn't help but get the 2 of them angrier.

"WHAT!" they exclaimed.

"Oh My God you guys are so gullible!" Kagome exclaimed laughing.

"Oh it's you guys." Someone said. "I knew this was gonna be a drag but I didn't know it was gonna be this lame." Shikamaru said.

"So all 3 stooges are here," Naruto said.

"Hey you know what pip-squeak, ah forget it; you're a waste of time." He sighed.

"Well, well what do you know? It looks like the whole gang is back together again." Kiba said as he stepped away from the crowd. Akamaru yipped and ran to Kagome.

"Oh, Hi Naruto," Hinata said from behind Kiba. Naruto looked at her and she blushed and looked away.

"You guys to huh? Man everyone's here for this stupid thing." Shikamaru sighed.

"Yep, here we all are; the 10 rookies. Ha-ha ha. This is going to be fun." Kiba laughed. "At least for those good enough to make the cut, right Sasuke?"

"Kiba, careful you don't get over confident." Sasuke said.

"Just wait, we're gonna blow you guys away. We've been training like crazy." Kiba smirked.

"What do you think we've been doing? Sittin' 'round and pickin' daisies, you don't know what training means!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Don't mind Kiba, I'm sure he didn't really mean anything by it." Hinata said fiddling with her hand.

"Huh?" Naruto asked.

Hinata gasped, blushed and looked away. Kiba and Akamaru looked at her confused.

Kagome realising what was up with Hinata decided she was going to have a talk with her when this exam was over.

Everything is the same up to the cards Kabuto owns.

"Do those cards of yours have any info on the other candidates, individually?" Sasuke asked.

"They might, you have someone special in mind?" Kabuto asked. Sasuke's eyes narrowed.

"I might." He answered.

"Well, I can't promise my information is complete or perfect, but I have some information on just about everyone, including you guys of course. So, which one is it, tell me anything you know about them, a description, where they're from, whatever, anything at all." Kabuto said as he put the deck together and pulled out a card.

"He's Gaara of the desert and there is Rock Lee of the leaf village while you're at it." Sasuke told him.

Kagome's balance faltered slightly when Sasuke mention Gaara. She was shocked and she couldn't help herself.

"Don't Sasuke!" she exclaimed and everyone looked at her confused.

"Why not?" Sasuke asked. Kagome bit her lip as she tried to come up with a good excuse as to why she didn't want him to find out about Gaara.

"The information might be wrong and we don't want to go around holding false info that could get us killed." Kagome lied. Sasuke looked like he didn't believe her.

"I don't care." Sasuke decided and turned back to Kabuto. Kagome didn't miss the worried glance Naruto and Sakura sent her.

"Man, this is easy, you know their names." Kabuto said as he swiped his hand across the deck.

Sasuke watched as Kabuto showed two cards.

"Here they are." He said.

"Show 'em to me." Sasuke demanded and this time Kagome had to jump off the roof before she did fall.

Naruto went over to Kagome and they sat down.

"What's the matter?" Naruto asked.

"He's going to have info on me that no one should know except you and the people involved." Kagome whispered biting her lip and Naruto realised what she meant.

"Maybe he'll not mention you to Sasuke." Naruto said.

"I don't know." Kagome mumbled.

"Okay, first up is Rock Lee." Kabuto said as he spun the card around.

Yada Yada Yada same as episode 23, now Gaara

"Okay, now for Gaara of the desert." Kabuto said and spun the card.

"Mission experience: 8 C ranks and get this, 1 B rank as a Genin. There's not a lot more information on this guy, he was a rookie from another land originally. But there is this, he survived every mission without getting a scratch on him."

"The dudes done a B rank as a Genin and has never even been injured." Shikamaru said.

"What's the deal with this guy?" Naruto asked.

"Leaf, sand, rain, grass, waterfall, sound, from the looks of it, they've all sent exceptionally skilled candidates to the exam this time around. Of course the hidden sound village is small, it sprang up recently and no one knows anything about it. Those guys are a mystery." Kabuto put the cards back.

"Oh, one more thing about Gaara, his weakness would be the injury or death of a particular person or girl. The only problem is she is your best rookie, or teammate." Kabuto said as he looked directly at Kagome.

'How the hell is Kagome Gaara's weakness?' Sasuke thought.

"Who?" Shikamaru asked.

"Well, who is Squad 7's best female genin?" Kabuto asked.

"Kagome," everyone whispered/ gasped.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Kagome grumbled when everyone looked at her.

Annoyed Kagome stalked over the other side of the room and talked to Alaria about random things to take her mind off of the exam.

"Actually, there is one more person I want you to do." Sasuke admitted.

"Okay, who?" Kabuto asked.

"Kagome," Sasuke said and everyone gasped.

Kabuto smirked and pulled a card out of the deck. Doing the same as the others, Kagome's information appeared.

"What do you know about Kagome?" Kabuto asked.

"Well, not much. She arrived a few of years ago and started living with Naruto. No one knows who she really is." Sasuke said.

Kabuto nodded.

"Kagome or Sabaku no Kagome is originally from Suna and lived with the Kazekage's family. She was close to Gaara who found her and bought her to the village. She is a demon vessel with the 2 tailed fox demon inside of her. She now lives with Uzumaki Naruto in Kakashi's squad with Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto." Kabuto explained.

Kankuro and Temari's eyes widened heaps.

'She lived with us? Why don't we remember her?'

The 9 rookies were shocked. She used to live in Suna with the Kazekage's family so she is virtually royalty and she is a demon vessel!

I can't exactly remember what happened with the sound village so I am going to skip up to the part were Ibiki comes. Um, I'm also not quite sure about the rules for exam 1 so they will probably be a bit different.

"NO fighting in this exam room! I am Ibiki, your instructor for the first exam! Get a number and sit in the place the number is!" Ibiki yelled.

Everyone did as asked and sat on the seats they were given. Kagome tried not to smile as she was sitting next to Gaara, and she was two seats behind Sakura and four rows down from Naruto. In the row next to her sat Sasuke, behind him Kankuro and 2 rows in front of him sat Temari.

"We are doing a written test. No cheating! If you get busted by the Jounin posted at the end of each row, they will write down your name. You have 10 points and 2 get taken every time you get busted. When you lose all your points, you get disqualified along with the rest of your team. For any question you don't answer at the end is 2 points gone and any you get wrong is another 2 points." Ibiki said.

"On the paper are 9 questions. When there is 10 minutes remaining I will give you all the last question. Any questions? No, get started!" Ibiki yelled.

The sound of turning paper was heard in the room. Kagome looked down and groaned at the questions. It wasn't that she was worried about losing, she knew some of the answers, and it was Naruto she was worried about.

'Naruto is definitely gonna lose.' She thought as she started to answer the ones she knew.

Gaara looked over a Kagome, she was answering question 5 but missed 3 and 4. Smirking slightly he made a third eye out of sand and sent it to the person 3 rows down. Sand went into their eyes as Gaara copied his answers.

Sakura had almost completed the sheet when she looked over a Naruto who was a mess. Next to him sat Hinata who had also almost finished the test.

"Naruto-kun, you can look at my answers if you like." Hinata whispered while sliding the paper under her arms for him to read.

"Thanks Hinata!" Naruto whispered looking at the answer. When he heard the scratching of a pen from the Jounin, he immediately looked away.

"Actually, don't worry." He said and went back to looking around the room and freaking out.

"Um, okay." Hinata said.

Sasuke was fine. He realised that the point of the test was to cheat and In front of him was someone who knew the answers. Using Sharingan he copied the genin's answers.

Kankuro used his puppet to get the answers and also gave them to Temari.

Kagome bit her lip as she stared at the paper. She had only answered questions 1, 2, 5 and 8. Not even most of the questions. She needed to answer most of them so she could at least try to get her team threw.

'Kagome, do you want me to teach you a trick?' Alaria asked.

'YES!' Kagome exclaimed.

'Okay, I want you to gain control of my chakra and hold it in your hand.' Alaria explained.

Kagome did as asked.

'Now, place that hand on the table and spread it in the wood.'

Kagome did this.

'Now, read the wood. See what people have written down.' Alaria said.

Kagome started reading the wood and almost gasped at the result.

'What is this?' Kagome asked.

'I can control the elements which means you can as well and this is what you can do when using earth.' Alaria explained.

'Wow,'

Kagome shut her eyes and kept reading the wood.

'You can also talk if you tried. Just, talk quietly you don't want to arouse suspicion.'

Kagome nodded and whispered.

"What are the answers for the test?" she asked.

One by one Kagome was told the answers and she wrote them down.

"Thank you," she whispered before taking her hand off of the table.

Gaara watched this in shock. He watched as a green chakra pooled on the underside of her hand. He watched as Kagome placed her hand on the table, after a while nodded and whispered a question to the table. He watched as she wrote the answers to the questions one by one before saying her thanks and taking her hand off of the table.

'Her demon can control the elements and is teaching Kagome.' Shukaku explained.

'That explains it,' Gaara said when Ibiki started talking again.

"Now is time for the 10th question! The rules are different here though. Before I give out the question you get a choice whether or not you answer it. If you choose not to answer it, you and your team are immediately disqualified and you can try again next time. If you choose to do it and you get it wrong... you team will be disqualified with and will not be able to try for the Chuunin exams again. If you get the question right as well as the rest of your teammates, you all pass." Ibiki said.

Everyone gasped and stared at the instructor in shock.

"Now, raise your hand if you don't want to answer it." Ibiki said.

One by one people raised their hands and one by one full teams got disqualified.

Naruto then exclaimed something about not giving up and less people started leaving.

'Hmm, more people are staying than usual. This kid has given them a boost in spirit.' Ibiki realised.

"No one else?" he asked. "Okay, you all pass!" he exclaimed.

"What!" Sakura exclaimed.

"You all pass." Ibiki repeated when this chick burst through the window. She had brown eyes and purple hair in a pony tail type thing.

"Okay all you pipsqueaks! I am Anko, the instructor for the 2nd exam! 3 days from now you are to meet me at the forest of death for the next test!" she exclaimed.

"Anko, I only just told them they passed." Ibiki stated.

"Oh, all well." Anko shrugged.

Ibiki sighed. "You are all dismissed." He said.

Soon everyone left the room and Ibiki walked down the middle isle looking at the test papers. When he came across Naruto's he laughed.

"I just passed someone who didn't answer a single question." Smiling he went to report to the Hokage about how many people passed.

~With Kagome~

On the way out of the building Kagome saw Hinata and remembered what happened in the exam room.

"Hey Hinata!" she yelled and ran over to her.

"Oh, Hi Kagome, can I help you?" Hinata asked.

"I want to talk to you about something; can we go for a walk?" Kagome asked.

"Sure," Hinata said.

They walked down the street in silence.

"Hey Hinata, you like Naruto right?" Kagome asked after a moment.

"Um, I-I don't K-know-"

"I'm not stupid, I can see the looks you give him and the blushing and all that jazz." Kagome interrupted. Hinata turned bright red and Kagome laughed.

"If you like, I can help you two get together." Kagome said.

"Really?" Hinata asked.

"Sure, anything for my friends." Kagome laughed.

Hinata smiled and hugged Kagome.

"Thank you!" she exclaimed.

Kagome smiled and with a quick goodbye they split and went home.

Man! That took forever! Other then it taking forever my laptop broke while writing it. Luckily I backed up everything!

Anyway, hope you like it!

Please review and tell me what you think!

Also it might take a while for the next chapter as I am helping my friend, Jappa with her stories. She is going to write all of her chapters for all of her stories and complete them then she is only going to write one-shots and beta stories as she hasn't got time to write chapter stories. So bare with me and I will write the next chapter as soon as I can.

Sorry,
