Me: Eeeewww... My last chapter sucked.. It didn't explain anything and I had turned Kankuro into a she.
Sakura: It wasn't that bad.
Naruto: Eh? But Sakura-chan, it really was bad.
Sasuke: Too true.
Sai: It was worse than bad.
Me: Shut up all of you except Sakura. You're supposed to comfort me when I say something of mine sucks!!!
Sai: ... Why?
Me: Why are you still talking??
Sasuke: Technically, we're allowed to say anything we want since you include us in your stories.
Me: ... Damn technical stuff... But shut-up again.
Naruto: Is that all you say?
Me: ANYWAYS!!! As an apology for the crappy chapter I decided to write another chapter earlier. As long as I have time since my laptop's dead, but it's Spring Break so I don't have an excuse.
Sai: Pssh, do you have to have an excuse everytime you turn in a chapter late?
Me: Shut-up.
Sasuke: And your pissed because Masashi Kishimoto is probably turning gay or into a yaoi fan.
Me: I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!! LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!!!!!!!!!!!
Sakura: That chapter was...
Naruto: Sick.
Me: la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la...
Sakura bit her bottom lip. 'Okay, I'm not nervous. NOT nervous... Okay, I am a little nervous. Tiny puny nervous... Not a lot... ARGH SHUT-UP!!!' She screamed in her head. She was scared. She had heard a lot of stories about Chuunin exams at different places and thanked all gods that Konoha's Chuunin exam is said to be the weakest. Male talk translated to normal person speak: the easiest. Despite that, the stories made her skin crawl.
They stopped in front of a very big building and she was glad they were there. Especially Naruto, he was a good stress reliever, to yell at and to make herself forget she was nervous.
"Baka! You don't know that??" Sakura scolded when Naruto asked about the slips. "You have to sign your name or no one will know you even signed up. No matter how loud you are." She sighed.
"Ne, Ugly, you seem to be a bit nervous." Sai said sweetly.
"Shut up." Sakura grumbled and dragged them all up the stairs and Sakura tried her best to pay close attention to everything.
Then they got to a point when they reached a door with two guy standing in front. They were talking to everyone with a very smug attitude. Now, normally Sakura wouldn't give a care. But then, one of the punks KICKED a GIRL. IN THE FACE. Now, a guy kicking a guy she might understand, but kicking a girl is very wrong.
"Heh, I agree, but I'm going to the 3rd floor. And I'm getting rid of the genjutsu around here." Sasuke said. Sakura blinked. It never occured to her he was talking.
"So you noticed." A kid said.
Sakura suddenly noticed too. She remembered she noticed it a few seconds ago. She shook her head, she's gotta pay better attention now.
"Sakura, you must have noticed first. Your anaylitical ability and genjutu is the most improved on our team." Sasuke said.
Sakura thought. Remembering, that those guys kicked a girl she wanted to freak them out. She smirked. Hee hee, yep. Of course I noticed awhile ago. Because this is the second floor." Sakura said with an innocent smile that even sent shivers up people who didn't even know her.
Sasuke smirked.
"Not bad..." One kid said. "But all you did was see through!!" He jumped up and aimed a kick for Sasuke's face just as Sasuke was ready to kick back at him. But a guy that was sitting on the ground a second ago suddenly jumped between them and blocked their feet.
'He could see both kicks and could stop them at once?' Sai thought in surprise.
'Catching my kick in his hand... What's this chakra in his arms?' Sasuke thought.
'This is way different from the guy that got knocked to the ground earlier.' A guy thought.
"Whew..." The guy said and exhaled.
"Hey.. What happened to the plan? You're the one that said we shouldn't draw attention to ourselves." A guy with white eyes and a biege shirt said.
"Well..." The guy said and glanced at Sakura, his face turning pink and smiley. Sakura smiled uncertainly back. She stepped slightly closer to her teammates.
"Oh no..." The girl with buns and had been kicked to the ground muttered, shaking her head.
"Hi, my name's Rock Lee, yours is Sakura?" He said when facing her with a smile. "Let's go out together! I'll protect you till the day I die!" He said and did this sparkly faced thumbs up thing.
"... Go out? Like outside?" Sakura asked. She didn't know what he was talking about. "And why would you protect me? You just met me..." Sakura said. She really didn't get it. (It's not that she's clueless, it's just no one's ever told her what 'go out' also meant.
Lee suddenly looked down and his face was red, and he was looking very nervous.
"Ugly, he wants to be your boyfriend." Sai muttered.
"Boyfriend??! Ew... Boyfriends are gross though..." Sakura said disgusted. Sasuke, Sai, and Naruto gave a silent (And secret) breath of relief.
Lee was now in a corner and looking quite gloomy.
"Aiya!! I didn't mean to offend you, it's just the prospect of boyfriends is gross to me!" Sakura tried her best to explain. Three boys shrunk sadly.
"Really?? So if that changed you'd go out with me??" Lee asked hopefully.
"Um..." Sakura looked at Lee. He had very bushy eyebrows. Was wearing a green spandex suit. Had a bowl cut. Was scary looking. But she wasn't mean enough to say these things. And Sakura wasn't too shallow, besides, he seemed nice, but... "I really wouldn't want to go out with anyone..." She said as nicely as possible.
Lee was in the corner again.
"Hey, what's your name?" The white-eyed guy asked Sasuke.
'DAMN IT!!! IT'S ALWAYS SASUKE!!!' Naruto thought.
Sakura looked at Sasuke and the white-eyed guy. 'What is it with guys and names?? Are they gonna call them or something??'
But Sasuke merely said. "Uchiha Sasuke, You?" In a way that seemed like he had practiced it a million times in the mirror.
The girl with brown hair in buns blushed. Sakura gave a sideways glance at all the girls. They were all blushing.
"Hyuuga Neji." Neji said.
Sakura cupped her chin in thought. Where have I heard that before... Hyuuga... Hyuuga Neji... Hyuuga... Neji... Neji... Argh! Where have I heard it??!! (Check the chapters before if you can't figure it out either.)
"So those are Kakashi's and Gai's prized pupils.. This'll be fun." The two kids guarding the entrance turned into two adult jounins. "Even for us examiners. Unofficial first exam. Done."
"C'mon, you guys!" Sakura smiled and pulled them all up the stairs. 'I can do this. I don't know why I'm feeling so happy, but it just seems like I can do it all!' Sakura thought.
"Oi oi, don't pull so hard." Sasuke murmured.
"Ugly, don't break my arm." Sai said.
Naruto didn't say anything. He liked the feel of Sakura pulling on his hand like this. He just had to pretend she wasn't pulling on Sasuke and Sai too.
Sakura started humming or singing softly.
"Hey, Lee what're you doing, we need to go." Neji asked.
"You guys go ahead, I need to do something." Lee said and headed toward Sakura & co. "Hey, guy with dark eyes." Lee called.
"?" Sasuke um... Said? "What?"
"Will you fight me here?" Lee said solemnly.
"A fight right now?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes." Lee said, and jumped down to face them. "I want to fight you, to test myself and my techniques on the offspring of the genuis ninja clan... And because..." He looked at Sakura... ... ... And winked... ... Everyone cringed.
"EWW!!!! THAT WAS GROSS!!!" Naruto yelled. Sakura was scooting as far away as possible.
"Ew... That was worse than anything ever imagined..." Sai groaned.
"Like you could ever get Sakura-chan!! That lame hair-style... And THE THICK EYEBROWS!!!!!!!" Naruto yelled.
"Ne, ne, Naruto, he isn't... Like that bad..." Sakura tried her best to say.
"Mua! You are an angel!!" Lee said and sent a pink little heart toward her.
Then Sakura lost control. "AAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed and dodged it. "Don't do stuff like that!!!" Sakura shuddered. 'I've almost been infected...'
"You don't have to be so mean..." Lee said and looked like he was gonna cry.
"That was even worse..." Sai looked like he was gonna snap.
"Challenging me and knowing about the Uchiha name... You're about to learn what this name means, thick eyebrows." Sasuke said darkly. (Okay, not just saying this because Sasuke said the insult, but what kind of insult is thick eyebrows?? It takes too long to say and honestly doesn't get a good effect no matter who says it. Maybe in Japanese it sounds better...)
"Please." Lee said with a smirk.
"Wait." Naruto said suddenly. "Let me fight him. I'll take him down in five minutes." Naruto said and suddenly charged forward to attack Lee. Lee merely punched him to the ground and did an attack that no one except Sasuke could probably follow.
"I'll say this. None of you guys can beat me." Lee said. "Right now I'm probably the strongest leaf genin."
"Sounds like a challenge..." Sasuke said. "I'll do it."
"Ne, Sasuke, don't do it. I mean, we only have 30 min. till the meeting." Sakura said, glancing at the clock.
"I'll be done in five." Sasuke said, charging forward.
"DAMMIT! BAKA!!" Sakura called.
They all watched Lee aim a punch aimed at Sasuke, Sasuke blocked, but it didn't work.
'What?? What is that??' Sasuke thought in disbelief. He groaned and stood up. Then he activated his Sharingan.
Lee kicked Sasuke in the air.
Sasuke was in just plain shock. 'I couldn't read it. The Sharingan can't read it...'
... You know what? I think all of you know what happens. Lee kicks Sasuke's butt, and all is in surprise. Because a turtle stops Lee from continuing to fight Sasuke. Now to skip to the part where Sasuke falls down.
"Eh? Sasuke!" Sakura cried, breaking his fall. She had at least expected him to land, she didn't think she was really gonna have to catch him. So now he was on her back. "Ow..." She groaned.
"Lee! That technique is forbidden! What were you thinking??" The turtle scolded.
"I'm sorry... It's just..." Lee didn't get a sentence in.
"Hey, that's a turtle right?" Naruto asked Sakura.
"Isn't that obvious?" Sai asked.
"Shut-up! I was asking Sakura-chan!" Naruto yelled. "Ne, Sakura-chan, can a turtle be a teacher?"
"How on earth would I know?" Sakura asked.
'I lost to these weirdos..' Sasuke thought bitterly.
"Are you willing to pay the punishment?" The turtle asked.
"Yes." Lee said.
"Then here comes Gai-sensei." The top of the turtle's back exploded with smoke and standing in the middle was... Lee in the future. Except worse. Either way it was ew... Like incredibly ew. And the anime version of Gai looked better by the way.
"Geez! You guys are the epitome of adolesence!" Lee's future version said.
"Eck!!?" Sai... Made that sound...
"?!??!!" Sasuke... Punctuated...
"URGH!!!" Naruto gurgled.
Sakura fell down in disgust.
"EEEEWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!! HE'S GOT EVEN THICKER EYEBROWS!!!!!!!!!!!!" Naruto screamed.
Sakura clinged to them. She was probably reacting the best because she was pretty much the only polite one, and she had seen people like him... Not looking like him, it's just she's seen a couple more freaky people in her lifetime... But that didn't mean she couldn't react. "Molester... Pervert... Scary person.. Fag... All those put together..."
"Super thick..Eyebrows.." Sasuke groaned.
"Incredible.. I've never seen eyebrows like that..." Sai said in amazement.
"Totally gross." Naruto managed to choke.
"HEY!! STOP INSULTING GAI-SENSEI!!!!!!" Lee yelled.
"SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!!! HOW THE HELL ARE WE SUPPOSED TO REACT TO FREAKS POPPING OUTTA NOWHERE??!!!" Naruto screamed.
"Lee!" Gai said.
"Yes?" Lee asked.
Then Gai PUNCHED Lee clear across the room.
"Eh?" Sakura asked.
"Sensei I..." Lee said, anime tears running down, and blood pouring out of his mouth. Literally.
"It's alright Lee, your punishment will be moved until after the Chuunin exams." Gai said. "500 laps around the training field!"
"Gai-sensei!" Lee said.
"Lee!!" Gai said and hugged him.
"... That's wrong.." Naruto said.
'I lost to him?' Sasuke thought.
"Isn't there a word for that... Incest?" Sai asked.
"EW!! THAT'S GROSS!!" Sakura yelled and hit his head. "And besides, it's not a known fact yet that they even are related."
Everyone except the turtle looked at her.
"Oh c'mon! Anyone would look like him if they had bushy eyebrows, had black hair, wore a spandex, and had a bowl cut!" Sakura said.
"And how many people do?" Sai asked.
"Well, she's actually right, Lee and I are not related, but we are the ideal picture of father and son." Gai said proudly.
Everyone except the turtle looked at him.
Naruto imagined Sasuke like that... "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!" Naruto laughed.
Sakura gave him a look.
"?" Sasuke...
"..." Sai dotted.
'These kids are Kakashi's...' Gai thought.
'Ugh, he's looking this way.' Sai thougt in disgust.
"Scary..."Sakura whispered.
"Hey you guys! How's Kakashi doing?" Gai asked.
"You know Kakashi?" Sasuke asked.
"Know him?... Well..." Gai stood there for about 3 sec. He disappeared and reappeared behind them in half a sec. "He and I are known as 'Eternal Rivals.'" Gai said. "50 wins, 49 losses, actually I'm stronger than Kakashi."
"See! Gai-sensei is amazing!" Lee said.
"You guys should head to the class room." Gai said.
RING!!!
"DAMMIT!! SASUKE YOU SON OF A !#$'&) WE ARE LATE!!! YOU SAID 5 min!!! I WOULD TORTURE YOU TO DEATH NOW IF I HAD ZOMBIE POWDER AND THE ABILITY TO STOP TIME!!!" Sakura screeched.
Sasuke shrank back. He was officially scared... But so was everyone else.
"One more thing, I was lying before, I do however, most likely have the strongest genin on my team. I've come here to beat him." Lee said and jumped away.
"WELL I DON'T GIVE A SHIT, WE ARE GOING RIGHT NOW, OR SASUKE, I WILL RIP OFF YOUR ASS AND SELL IT ON E-BAY!!" Sakura roared and yanked all their arms.
"So, I guess the Uchiha clan isn't worth much." Sai said.
"Shut the hell up." Sasuke said, aura turning incredibly dark.
"So, I'm right." Sai said with a smile.
"I'll beat him soon." Sasuke said.
"Are you kidding? Thick eyebrows probably trained everyday. Check out his scars." Naruto said. "He probably worked more than you."
Sasuke looked like he was ready to punch but...
"DAMMIT!! MOVE YOUR ASSES!!!" Sakura roared, grabbing Sasuke's hand.
"Why are you so pumped up for this?" Sai asked.
Sakura blinked. "Well, as much as I'm against useless violence, you have to admit, this exam's really getting... Interesting..."
Sasuke suddenly smirked. "Yeah..."
Sai smirked too. "Hmm..."
"Alright!" Naruto cheered.
"Let's go already!!" Sakura said desperatly.
