Summary: The chunin exams are back and Tsunade wants to know why both Izumo and Kotetsu and a black mark beside their names.
A/N: So I've had this idea for a while now and it's just one of those things that when you really think about it... well, anyways takes place during the chunin exams.
Kotetsu/Team Eight

"So tell me Kotetsu, the chunin exams are being held in the village this year yet when I look at the Sandaime's notes, the two of you have marks beside your names saying that your are banned from helping out." Tsunade leaned forward, resting her head upon her clasped hands while taking in the two chunin shifting uncomfortably before her. "Care to explain?"
"Uh yeah, about that," Kotetsu began, smiling awkwardly and rubbing the back of his head. "Well, you see…"
.
Two years prior…
"Mmm, have you two tried any of this home made syrup?" Anko asked the two men while sucking on a stick and carrying a jar under her arm. They were all sitting around bored, in the tower for the second part of the chunin exam, waiting for the teams to return. "The stuff's great. Here, try some."
Anko tossed the jar high towards them before walking off without looking where it fell. Kotetsu sprang up at the same time Izumo did, both reaching out to grab it, only to collide with one another and leaving the jar to smash on the ground, spraying the sweet, sticky syrup everywhere.
The two swore, surveying the damage and picking at their now ruined clothes.
"Shower?" Izumo asked.
"Yeah," Kotetsu sighed. "This stuff is going to ruin my hair."

Team eight had just arrived at the tower. Being a tracking team, the task had been incredibly easy for the young ninja and now the three stood with their two scrolls, grinning from ear to ear. Well, Kiba grinned, Hinata smiled, and Shino smirked.
"So now what?" Kiba asked, looking up at the message on the wall and then back to scrolls in Hinata's hand.
"I- I think we're supposed to open them," Hinata said with a small frown. Shino nodded and took one from her hand.
Together they opened the scrolls, tossing them to the ground once the summoning jutsu activated.
"So I told her, you call this mauve? It's clearly fusha..?" Kotetsu stopped speaking as cold air suddenly met his wet naked skin. A few things came to him in that moment, one; the water had stopped, two; this was clearly not the showers, and three; there was a young girl letting out a small, high pitched scream.
"Hey, what the hell is this!" A boy yelled from behind him.
Kotetsu turned around just in time to see the young girl pass out in her teammate's arms while another boy with a puppy growled at him.
Shit. Okay, so clearly this was unexpected, he thought looking at the boys who seemed ready to spring on him at any moment. Now, how to smooth this over?
He smiled, it was time to play it cool.
"Oh hey guys," Kotetsu said, tossing his wet hair back. The girl had already passed out from seeing his god like manly physique, so being in front of the guys didn't really matter he supposed. "Congratulations, you've passed the second part of the chunin exam! It's a chunin's job to welcome the passing genin to the next part of the test."
Kiba's mouth dropped while Akumaru whimpered.
"When I am chunin I will not participate in such activities," Shino said calmly, still holding the unconscious Hinata in his arms. "Why? Because I am not a pervert."
.
Tsunade felt a vain throb in her head as she listened to the story. She then turned the Izumo, raising one eyebrow. "And you?" she asked, almost afraid to hear.
The man shuddered. "I'd rather not say, but it involves a bucket of water, purple dye, and a particularly expensive feather duster."
.

A/N: Ok, the second part of the test takes place over how many days, and those chunin can be summoned at anytime? Come on, that's just asking for unexpected inappropriate situation to pop up.
