A.N. Hi Guys and Gals sorry for the long wait between updates, but my computer crashed and I had to get a new one. Anyway I will try to update more frequently, but I cant promise anything except to promise to do so at least once a month. but please remember that as a writer i thrive best when my story is read and reacted to by reviewers. So please Follow,Favourite, and Review.

Tsunade shook her head and turned to Kakashi who was standing beside her and in and said "I hope your keeping a close eye on these little Gaki Kakashi, because at the end of the month it will no longer be my problem in keeping them in line. It will be yours."

Kakashi nodded his head and said "I understand Tsunade-sama; I can't say I will enjoy the challenge of being Hokage, but it is the will of the Daimyo and the Council, so I will bear the office of Hokage with Honor and do the best I can."

Tsunade smiled and said "that is the best anyone can ask Kakashi, besides I did my time and I have delayed it enough, it's time for me to retire and make way for the Next Generation of leaders. After all isn't that the job of the older Generation to impart its wisdom and help their children prevent the same mistakes. Now let's table this discussion for another time and let's see what skills our new Chunin have learnt."

"Kakashi nodded his head in agreement and looking towards his audience he said "Congratulations on reaching this far Team Kiba, I know I speak for both your current and former sensei when I say, that you have made us all proud and your skills as Shinobi have increased by leaps and bounds. However it is now time for Team Chouji to show their skills and face their masters in one final battle."

He then turned towards Tatsuki and said "Chunin Arigawa, it is your turn to battle so please choose your opponent, however to ensure there is no undue advantage given, you are forbidden from choosing Jonin Tenten, Jonin Chouji or Jonin Lee as they have already battled and as a result removed from the selection process. All the other rules previously stated are also in place, so with that in mind who do you choose as your opponent?"

Tatsuki bowed to the Hokage and after bowing and taking permission to fight from Anko, Shizune and Chouji walked towards the gathered Jonin before stopping before Ino and after bowing respectfully said "Ino sensei, I have trained for five years with Anko sensei in not only perfecting my Taijutsu Style Jungle Silat, but I also trained extensively with the Cobra clan in the hopes of one day being able to face you and the Eagle Clan. Therefore I ask for the honor of facing you in combat."

Ino smiled and said "You're an interesting duckling Tatsuki-chan, you want to fight a battle of the animals, but something tells me that is not all you have planned for this match, after all when it comes to testing your abilities, I am sure Shino kun or even Hinata chan would prove a better adversary than I, after all the Eagle Clan and the Snake Clan are known to be bitter enemies."

Tatsuki smiled and said "Ino sensei, while all that you have said is true, is not also true that in Hindu Mythology the Eagle and the Snakes both share the same father and are as such brothers in blood. You ask me Ino sensei why I choose to fight you, knowing that if I lose I might lose the respect of my Summon.

However I say to you the same thing Anko sensei taught me at the beginning, if a student wins or loses against his master, it is still a victory for him, because if he wins the world will applaud him for who he won against, and even if he loses the world will still applaud him, because of who he lost against. So you ask me if I am willing to pay the price of failure Master Ino, I say this: you talk of loss, I say I see only victory, because to me losing and winning is the same. If I win, your fame will be known in all directions, and if I lose it is still a victory, for that too enhances your fame.

Ino laughed heartedly and said "your masters have taught you well Tatsuki chan, indeed all that you have said is true, and I will be honored to face you in battle. However I want to change the rules a bit, just to make it that more interesting." She then turned to Kakashi and said "is that ok, with you Kakashi sensei?"

Kakashi nodded his head and said "as long as there is no intent to kill or maim and no Kinjutsu is used, the match is yours to customize as best as you think it will benefit your student to showcase her skills."

Ino nodded her head and turned to Tatsuki and said "Alright little duckling, here are the rules. To ensure things are fair on either side. Neither of us will use our clan based techniques in any way, shape or form. This venue is not being chosen to display our clan based skills. I want to test your skills in co-ordination with your Summons, the agility and level of skill you hold with your Kris Dagger and your Taijutsu style Jungle Silat. I will also adhere to the same rules, I will only use my Capoeira and my Urumi sword to combat you is that agreed?"

Tatsuki nodded her head and said "I agree Ino sensei, but what about the stakes, what are we playing for?"

Ino smiled and said "that's the best part little duckling, you get to set the stakes. The stakes are as high or as low as you make them."

Tatsuki thought about that for a few minutes before replying "Very well Sensei, the stakes will be two fold. The first Shinobi whose summoned animal either admits defeat or disappears first will be the victor. However if either of us is disarmed or loses their weapon. They must retrieve it within forty five seconds or less, if the shinobi fails to do so, then they automatically forfeit the match."

Ino smiled and said "you are one interesting little duckling Tatsuki chan, I accept your offer in all aspects."

She then turned to Gai sensei and said "Sensei, I know Kakashi sensei can advise on my Capoeira Taijutsu style, but am I correct in presuming you are familiar enough with the premise and style of Pencak Silat to advise Tsunade Roshi?"

Gai nodded his head and said "while I am not as great an expert as my student Lee in Tatsuki chan's hybrid style, I have enough expertise on the parent Martial art that I can advise the Godaime. However I will require Kakashi to explain your style and Iruka sensei's expertise on snake style fighting so that Godaime Sama and the rest of the Jonin can make an informed decision about Tatsuki chan's level of skill."

When Iruka nodded his head and Yamato had repaired the damage to the forest, Ino turned towards Tatsuki and said "alright little duckling, since we both have styles that evolved from the Jungles. How about we make this a jungle fight."

Tatsuki smiled and copied her sensei as both kunoichi cut their thumbs on their respective blades and simultaneously made the hand signs for the Boar → Dog → Bird → Monkey → Ram and said at the same time: "Ninpou: Kuchiyose no Jutsu!"

Suddenly the Forest of Death was covered in two large pillars of smoke, that when dissipated showed the large forms of a Snake and an Eagle, with their respective summoners standing on their heads.

Tsume smiled widely and said "this is going to be an entertaining dog fight, all right then bitches time to put your money where your mouth is and Hajime!"
