Miki's POV
This morning I woke up with a startle as I did on the night before the fight with Zabuza and Haku. I totally forgot that today was my birthday, June 21st. That day I heard a knock on the door. I went towards the door and opened it. The person standing there was Sasuke. "What are you doing here?" I asked.
"I came to give you something." He held out a small box. "Happy Birthday, honey!" He said. "I totally forgot was my birthday." I said and opened the small box. In the small box was another charm but it was a heart that had our names carved in it. "Thank You. I love it." I said and gave him a kiss on the lips and he kiss me back. "Kakashi-sensei wanted to talk to us today." Sasuke said. "Oh yeah the Chunin exams." I thought.
I grabbed an apple to snack on. Sasuke and I were holding hands while walking to the training grounds to meet up with Kakashi. We now saw view of the clearing. "You guys are finally here." Sakura said. "Yup! So is Kakashi here yet?" I asked. "No not yet, but Naruto is here. He's over there." Sakura said while pointing her finger to a sleeping Naruto.
Just then Kakashi popped out of nowhere. "Ah. You guys are here. Today I recommend that you guys should take the Chunin exams but if you do not want to you can take it next year." He said. Everybody said they were going to take it. Kakashi passed out a registration paper to us. "You will have to have this paper filled out before you enter the building to take the exams. Also Miki, you will be separated from this team and go solo." He said.
"Why is Miki going solo?" Sasuke asked. "He's being overprotective." I thought.
Sasuke's POV
Kakashi was explaining to us about the Chunin exams. "You will have this paper filled out before you enter the building to take the exams. Also Miki, you will be separated from this team and go solo." He said. I stopped breathing for a second. "Why is Miki going solo?" I asked.
"Miki is going solo because she is on a different level compared to you guys. She is S-Rank level and an Anbu at that." He said. "Hey Kakashi! Why did you tell them that? I wanted to keep it a secret." Miki yelled. I smirked at her reaction. "She's so cute when she's angry." I thought. "That's it so be sure to fill it out before you enter the exams." He said and poofed away. We all put the paper in our pouches.
I left them because I had to do something. I said goodbye to Miki and she gave me a kiss.
Miki's POV
Sasuke said he was leaving so I gave him a kiss and he left. "I wonder what he's doing?" I thought. That's when I saw Konohamaru and his crew. He called Sakura and name and started running off. He bumped into someone. "Ooff. I'm sorry." Konohamaru said. "You think sorry is going to be enough." Kankuro said and grabbed Konohamaru by the neck. "Kankuro, put Konohamaru down." I said.
"How does this girl know my name? She does look a bit familiar." Kankuro thought. That's when I saw Temari. Her eyes widened. "Is that really Miki?" She thought. Kankuro then started to strangle Konohamaru, that's when a rock it his hand and he dropped Konohamaru. Before he could fall, I caught him and put him beside Naruto.
"What do you think you are doing in our village? I thought villages weren't able to enter without permission." Sasuke said. "We are here to take the Chunin Exams." Temari said showing her their papers. "Temari! Is that really you? It's Miki, do you remember me?" I said. Her eyes widened. "Miki! OMFG! I haven't seen you since forever." She said.
"Do you guys know each other?" Kankuro said. "Kankuro, this is Hagoromo Miki. Don't you remember her? We used to play with her all the time before she left." Temari said. Kankuro thought about it and he realized. "You sure have grown, Miki specially in that area." He said. That's when sand came flying.
Gaara's POV
I was walking when I saw those idiots making a scene. "Kankuro, this is Hagoromo Miki. Don't you remember her? We used to play with her all the time before she left. "Is that really Miki. I haven't seen her for about 6 years." I thought. I saw Kankuro think for a second. "You sure have grown, Miki specially in that area." Kankuro said. I got mad and moved my sand towards him.
Someone grabbed Miki, I saw that it was a boy with raven black hair with onyx eyes. "GAARA!" Miki said. She came up to me and hugged me.
Sasuke's POV
I saw sand coming towards them. I grabbed Miki and I saw a boy with red hair with sea-foam green eyes. "GAARA!" Miki said. She ran up to the red head and hugged. "Get off me." He said. "What happen to you, Gaara? You used to be sweet." She said. "I'm no longer the same person you saw 6 years ago. Let's leave." He said and they left.
"Miki? How do you know them?" Naruto asked. "I was wondering the same thing." Sakura asked. "Well, I met them when I went traveling and I settled in the Sand Village. That's where I met Temari, Kankuro, and Gaara." I said.
**Time Skip**
Miki's POV
I went home to get some rest. I had to fill out my paper for the exams. I finally finished it and somebody knocked on my door. I opened the door and I saw Naruto standing there. "Miki, are you ready?" Naruto said. I nodded. We decided to meet around 3pm.
We were now walking towards the building. I saw Sasuke and I ran up to him. I gave him a hug. "I missed you." I said. "Me too." He said and gave me a kiss. "Keep it PG-13 you guys." Naruto said. I rolled my eyes and we headed up the stairs. We kept on walking and we finally reached the doors.
Kakashi was in front of the door waiting for us. "Are you guys, ready?" He said. We all nodded and he opened the door.
We walked in and saw other teams. That's when I noticed a sinister chakra. I looked around trying to find it. "Miki, what's wrong?" Sasuke asked. "Oh it's nothing. Just nerves." I said with a fake smile. I saw a guy walk up to us. He had white hair with glasses.
"Hi my name is Yakushi Kabuto." He said with a smile. "That smile is a fake. I know it." I thought. He talked about getting information about any enemy. "Can you look information about Hagoromo Miki of the Leaf Village and Gaara of the Sand Village?" Sasuke asked. "A Hagoromo, interesting. I'm sure Orochimaru would be glad to hear this news." Kabuto thought.
"Why do you want to look me up?" I asked. "I want to see how strong you are, that's why." He said. "I don't have much information on both of them, especially Hagoromo Miki." He said. Before we could say anything a jounin walked in. "Hello there my name is Morino Ibiki. I will be your instructor for this section." Ibiki said.
Everyone took a seat where they were placed. Ibiki then talked about the rules about no cheating. "This test is obviously about gathering intel without being noticed." I thought and the test began. I already knew the answers so I didn't have to cheat.
**Time Skip**
The test was now over. We were now going to get our tenth question. "People who get this answer wrong will forever stay as a genin, but you can raise your hand and leave to try again next year. Then again if one of your team mates raises their hand, you whole team will be disqualified." He said. People started to raise their hands and leave. "I DON'T CARE IF I STAY A GENIN ALL MY LIFE. I'M GOING TO BE THE HOKAGE ONE DAY AND THIS ISN'T GOING TO STOP ME!" Naruto said.
"Nicely said, Naruto." I thought. "The tenth question is that you... ALL PASS!" Ibiki said. Some of us were confused but most of us were too happy to think about it. That's when I heard a crash and someone landed near Ibiki. "Hello you squirts, my name is Mitarashi Anko. I will cut this group in half when I'm finished with them. Everyone follow me." She said and everyone followed her.
We were now walking towards a forest. "I've heard about this forest from Gramps. It's called the Forest of Death." I thought. "Well bye you guys. I have to go to a different area. So you in the forest." I said and turned around. Before I could start walking, someone put their arms around my waste. "Be careful." Sasuke said. "I will. You be careful to. Something is going to happen in there that I can't tell you." I said and I kissed him. I ran before he could asked me.
"Why was Miki acting so weird? What's going to happen in the forest during the Chunin exams?" Sasuke thought.
**Time Skip**
I was given the heaven scroll, I now had to obtain the earth scroll. I noticed someone's presence and they ambushed me. I saw that they had the Earth scroll. "Would you like to give us the Heaven scroll the easy or hard way?" One of them said. Before he could do something I knocked out all his comrades. "Wwhat how did you do that so quickly?" He said. I knocked him out and took the Earth scroll. Suddenly a chill went through my body.
"I hope nothing happens to Team 7." I thought. That's when I felt that sinister chakra again and I headed towards it. What I saw was Sasuke holding the side of his neck. There was a huge snake and Naruto was fighting it. Sasuke and Naruto had knocked out, it was just Sakura and I. "Sakura, take them someplace safe. I'll take care of him and I'll come search for you." I said. She nodded and left with both of the guys.
"Now, what should I do with you?" I said. The snake had turned into a human. "Now I see. You are the last person in the Hagoromo clan." Orochimaru said and he started to attack me. Of course I overpowered him. "You are quite strong. I will take you later, but for now I will have Sasuke as my new vessel." He said and disappeared.
I left and found Sakura's chakra signature and I followed it. "I could I let this happen. When I knew it would happen. I'm such an idiot." I thought. When I arrived, I saw ninjas and I saw one holding Sakura by the hair and the girl had cut her hair. "SAKURA!" I yelled. I was now pissed. I ran towards the ninjas and I started to fight them.
I did some hand seals. "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" I yelled and blew fire from my mouth. I was extreme pissed. I kept fighting and I sensed an evil aura. I turned around and saw Sasuke engulfed with the dark aura. I wasn't paying attention and I got kicked off my feet.
Sasuke was now going on a rampage. I ran towards him and hugged him from behind. "Sasuke! Stop! Please stop." I said with a teardrop in my eye. I felt the dark aura disappearing. "I'm sorry I scared you, Miki." He said and he fainted after using all his strength. I put him next to Naruto and I healed them including Sakura.
"I will be leaving first. You can come when they have both awaken." I said to Sakura and she nodded. I left to the building.
**Time Skip**
I had finally reached the building and I handed the sensei my scrolls. "Good job getting here, Miki." Sarutobi said. "Gramps. can I talk to you in private?" I asked. He nodded and we headed to a room. I told him what happened and I told him to be careful of an attack. "Thank you for letting me know, Miki. You should go rest and wash up. There is a room for you to rest." He said. I nodded and head towards the room.
I took a shower and I took a nap. When I woke up, I felt Team 7's chakra signature so I knew that they had arrived.
Sasuke's POV
We had finally arrived at the building. "Where is Miki?" I thought. I felt some pain on my neck. "Are you alright, Sasuke-kun?" Sakura said. "I'm fine." I said. She started complaining that I should get it looked at but I refused. After the Hokage talked, Kakashi grabbed me. "I know about your curse mark. The Third Hokage heard it from Miki." Kakashi said. "Miki is here. I'm glad." I thought.
"I will seal your curse mark." He said and he started to seal it. I had to say it did hurt while Kakashi was sealing it. After he finally healed it, I went back to the balconies. I also saw Miki standing next to Naruto. I walked up to her and put my arm around her waist. "How are you doing?" She asked. "I'm doing fine." I said.
I looked up at the screen and I saw who was going to fight next.
Hagoromo Miki vs. Yakushi Kabuto
"Be careful." I said. "I will." She said. I kissed her forehead before she jumped off the balcony to the ground.
"Good Luck." I mentally told her.
