Chapter 6: The Exams Begin… Ixy joins 7…
At a building…
"So you three did arrive." Kakashi stated as he took a glance at Ixy. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Why not, I'm not going to cost them their chance while I was partially at fault for their teammate being in the hospital." Ixy replied as she looked at the boys. "Anyways, they have a better chance with me."
"Why is that?" Kakashi asked.
"I'm not a fangirl." Ixy stated as she walked to the door. "Come on the longer we wait the less chance to scout the weaker teams."
"Let's go, Naruto." Sasuke stated as he followed her in.
"See you sensei." Naruto stated as he followed.
At the door on the second floor…
"Sasuke, is there something wrong here?" Ixy asked as she looked about.
"We are on the second floor." Naruto stated quietly.
"He is correct, should I reveal it?" Sasuke asked.
"Why? It is getting rid of the competition." Ixy stated as she shook her head. "Wait, Naruto how did you know?"
"I prank the school when I was younger; there is a janitor closet right next to the stairs on the third floor." Naruto pointed out.
"So why are we still standing here?" Ixy asked as they continued on.
Inside the exam room…
"Sasuke!" Another blonde shouted as Sasuke sidestepped, followed by Naruto and said blonde nearly hit the wall. "Where's Forehead?"
"Hospital." Ixy stated as she looked at the blonde who looked sheepish. "Something is off?"
"I only act the fangirl. The names Ino Yamanaka." Ino stated making Sasuke sigh. "I had to make Sakura have some form of confidence."
"Your idea flopped." Ixy stated with a sigh.
"I know… I thought that giving her a challenge by a friend she would try to have the best female win, but she went too far." Ino muttered.
"And all those times you chased me?" Sasuke asked.
"To make Sakura think I wasn't giving up. Just to tell you Sasuke, dark and broody isn't my type." Ino stated making Sasuke do a stiff snort. "What?"
"Hn." Sasuke grunted.
'NOOOOOO! He is back to grunting!' Both Ixy and Naruto thought before mentally laughing.
"So who's the new babe?" Another guy asked with a dog on his head.
"K-k-kiba, she might have been…" A girl with a large fluffy jacket started to say.
"Name's Ixpellia Lanster. And you buster are not my type so be quiet." Ixy stated as she glared at Kiba.
"Burn." A guy stated that spooked Ixy.
"Where did you come from?" Ixy asked as she looked at him.
"I was standing next to him the entire time. Also I've never seen you in the village before." The guy stated making the girl take a glance.
"I'm only a place holder for their missing teammate." Ixy stated as she shrugged. "And who are you two anyways?"
"Hinata Hyuuga." Hinata stated quietly.
"Shino Aburame." Shino replied with a curt nod.
"My, my you guys make a lot of noise…" An older teen stated as he walked up but stopped when he saw Ixy and frowned. "I never seen you before."
"Isn't that a surprise." Ixy stated with a smirk. "I'm the complete unknown here."
"Why are you on team seven?" The teen asked as he pulled out a deck of cards.
"Not repeating myself again. Also why do you have information about everyone in the room anyway, what are you a spy?" Ixy asked making the teen pale and drop the cards to the floor. "Normally information about new people should be hard to get, so why do you have information that is not known normally?"
"You can read the cards?" the teen asked as he backed up a few steps.
"Why are you surprised, I can read them plain as day, though I do have to ask, what is a Jinchuriki?" Ixy asked making a few people in the room flinch.
"Ummm, Ixy whose card did you read that on?" Naruto asked quietly.
"Tell you later, if you know what it means I'll asked you after this." Ixy stated as a guy in a trench coat appeared and got them all seated down, and as she looked over her test. 'There is no way I can answer some of these… Some of these are easy due to my training… but Sasuke told me that Naruto isn't good at this.'
After a few long moments…
'Good…' the guy wearing the trench coat thought as a few teams were kicked out. "Pencils down, it is time for the tenth question."
"Finally." A guy with a four diagonal lines in a row stated. "So what is this mysterious tenth question?"
"Before I give it, you have to make a choice." The guy stated with a smirk. "You can chose to take it or not, because if you fail the question you will be barred from ever taking the Chunnin exams ever again."
"That's bullshit, there has been several people from other chuunin exams!" Kiba shouted as the guy in front of everyone just started to laugh.
"Really, well that means they got lucky that I wasn't picked to be the proctor for the exams." He stated making a few teams get up and leave.
"I'm going to call your bluff." Naruto stated as he looked up. "I don't care if I get stuck as a genin, I will be the Hokage, and then I'm going to make you do D-rank missions for that."
'Damn… all that hard work to get rid of a good chunk of the teams and he ruins it with that.' The guy thought with a sigh. "All of you that are still here you all passed."
"Huh?" A blonde girl with a black bar that was leaning on the desk asked.
"I mean that was the tenth question. Most of you figured out that the test was for stealthily getting your answers for the test and the last question is to deal with a question under fire." He stated as the window exploded and a tarp unrolled revealing a message on it.
"The Wonderful, talented, beautiful Anko, the second proctor." Was what the tarp stated.
"Anko you are early again!" The guy shouted as he lifted the tarp off his face.
"Wow, boss you are getting soft. Sixty-eight teams, well I'll cut that number down, Ibuki." Anko stated from the door. "And how did you end up under the tarp?"
"I didn't detect you." Ibuki stated as he glared at her.
"Oh… Well when he releases you head to training grounds forty-four." Anko stated as she left.
"Well, you have two hours before the second half is started and if you don't know where it is; ask a jonin." Ibuki stated as he sighed and left.
A little later at another training ground…
"So what should we expect?" Ixy asked as she was shadow boxing.
"What are you doing?" Sasuke asked as he saw her do that before.
"Keeping my body limber." Ixy stated as she stopped. "So how about we make some plans here, pass phrases and the like."
"Well they have to be simple, and be things that only we know how to do." Sasuke stated.
"Ummm… I barely know you two." Ixy stated making the two smile.
"Good, my pass code is my favorite food." Sasuke stated.
"Okay." Ixy stated as she nodded and looked at Naruto to see him nod. "You know?"
"Naruto is one of the few that can grow them right." Sasuke muttered. "He tricked me once at the academy."
"Mine is my hobby." Naruto stated making Ixy tilt her head. "It goes hand in hand with Sasuke's."
"Oh. Well mine is Lionheart." Ixy stated as she pulled out a card. "This is Lionheart, sealed form. I'm not revealing unsealed anytime soon."
"Good, let's head to that area." Sasuke stated as he stood up and was followed by the team.
"Also if we get over our head, listen to me; I can get us through most situations." Ixy stated making the two boys look at her. "I've battled before."
A/N: I hope this time the format I wanted stays... As always questions arise as to how Team seven will handle the forest with Ixy, and will a certain Snake bite off more than he can chew... and when will Riot Force get there... Till Tuesday...
