Chapter XIV: Chunin Exam Stage Two: The Forest of Death, Begins

All of the Genin gathered at the front of the Forest, and saw Anko.

"Hello maggots!"

Turan wanted to knock her block off already.

"Well, I've got good news, and good news." Anko said.

Virtually all the Genin thought the same thing… Huh?

"I will not be the proctor! However, he will be!"

The Genin looked to their right, where Anko pointed. They saw a tall man. He had formal robes on. And really long hair. He also had white eyes. "Neji, Hyuga." Tanahi and Turan looked as though they were going to have heart attacks. They're uncle Neji, was going to be proctor. They had heard Hinata saying many things about him. One of them, that he could be ruthless, and unforgiving.

"Alright you pampered little worms, you're now under my command! You will do as I say!" Neji exclaimed. The Genin shuddered. "I'm not scared of you Neji-hakufu!" Turan exclaimed. Neji just rose his eyebrow, and mumbled "Turan-oi, you're an idiot…" While Anko threw her kunai at Turan and vanished. The kunai flew right at him, but he then caught the blade, so his hand was cut. Then Anko appeared behind him.

"Wow, you're fast kid."

"Well, I am the most powerful ninja in the village."

"Right…"

"I am!" Turan jumped to tackle Anko. But then she vanished and reappeared behind him again, and tackled him to the ground. Her hands were holding his wrists, and her knees his legs. She pulled her face close to his. "So, still think you're a big shot?" Her lips were so close to his, he could feel the warmth from hers on his. Turan was speechless. He honestly couldn't think of anything to say. "That's what I thought." Anko got up, and jumped back next to Neji.

Turan checked his pulse to make sure he was alive. It was racing. The beats were so fast he couldn't count them. He slowly got back onto his feet, and dusted himself off. The only proof he had that that happened, is the blood on his hand from the kunai.

"Again, to begin this test, you all must sign these consent forms. All they do is say that it isn't my fault, if any of you don't come back alive."

The Genin again, shuddered.

"Bunshin no Jutsu." Neji said as he did a hand seal. Three clones of Neji appeared. He handed them the consent forms and the began to hand them out to the Genin.

"This'll be a survival test. Here's an idea of what it looks like." Neji pulled out a scroll, opened it, and it had a bird's eye view. "You can see forty-four gates, rivers, and of course, the forest. In the middle, is a tower. Within this ridiculously oversized cage, you'll experience the torture of the Forest of Death. The point is, to obtain these scrolls, in any way possible." Neji pulled out to more scrolls. "The Heaven, and Earth scrolls."

"Hm?" Turan looked puzzled.

"There will be thirty-four scrolls. Each team will get one random scroll. You must obtain the other scroll to have both by whatever means necessary. Once you have both, you must travel to the tower in the center."

'There are thirty-four, scrolls, so that means that only seventeen teams can pass…' Shikamizu thought.

"By the way, one more thing, look in the scroll, and your team is disqualified."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By now, everyone had signed the consent forms, and were lined up to get their scrolls.

"Well Neji-san, I'd love to stay and watch the mayhem, but I have to go find my perverted husband…" Anko said.

"Why?"

"Because, he went on a mission last week to Otogakure, and hasn't come back yet. Plus, it was only B-rank…"

"Wow. How unlike him."

"Yeah, I'm kinda worried, so I'm gonna go get him." Anko said as she left.

'Hm… Kakashi-san, you've never taken so long for a B-rank… What are you doing?' Neji thought. "Hm?" Neji looked up and all of the Genin were in front of him.

"They all have their scrolls, and their numbers!" One of the ninja that was handing the scrolls out exclaimed.

"Alright… All of you, go to the gates that match the number on the slip of paper that was given to you. Then, wait until you hear the signal."

"What's the signal Neji-hakufu?" Tanahi asked.

"You'll know Tanahi-mei."

The Genin looked puzzled, but didn't doubt him, and went to their respective gates. They all waited anxiously for minutes, until the gates swung open. At cell 13's gate, it smashed Turan through the side. Tanahi and Shikamizu started running in, and Turan soon followed.

"Think we're ready for this?" Tanahi asked.

"Hell no." Shikamizu replied.

"But I don't care!" Turan exclaimed.

Dozens of other Genin leapt through the forest, at astonishing speed, all with the same intention.

Meanwhile, near the back, a man snuck in. He must've been in his early thirties. He wore a cloak. On it, were several red stars. It covered his entire body, even dragging on the floor a little. It had a large neckband, but the front was missing. He had a samurai hat on, that had several long steaks of confetti going down, that were long enough to fall to the cloak in the back and sides, and were shorter in the face, where, at the front, the only went down to the top of the eyes. He had blue eyes. He began to venture into the forest.

Turan looked around, no one in sight. His sight anyway. "Sis!" Tanahi looked over. "Yeah?" Shikamizu looked to see what they were saying. "You can use the Byakugan now, right?" Tanahi was curious what he was thinking. "Yeah. Why?" Turan was surprised she hadn't already thought of it. "Use you byakugan to see if there are any enemies nearby." Tanahi did an hand seal, and said, "Byakugan." Her eyes turned white, and veins on the side of her eyes were bulging. "I think I see somebody." Turan looked worried. "How many?" Tanahi squinted her eyes. "Two. They're coming this way. From the north-east." "Damn…" Turan swore. "Can you see their forehead protectors?" Shikamizu asked. "They look like… stars." Shikamizu sighed. "Then they're ninja from Hoshigakure. The Village Hidden among Stars." "Hm… I wonder what they're attacks are…" Turan wondered. Tanahi's eyes popped open. "That's not our prime concern right now!"

Suddenly, a large blast of fire shot through the trees to the side of Turan's cell, catching Turan on fire, while Tanahi and Shikamizu managed to dodge it. Turan fell into a large bush. "Brother!" Tanahi exclaimed. "He'll be fine!" Shikamizu exclaimed as he pushed her out of the way of another blast. Shikamizu looked around, and saw a stream. He did a hand seal, and exclaimed, "Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu!" Three clones of Shikamizu crawled out of the water. Then, dozens of shuriken and kunai flew out of a tree at Shikamizu's clones. Shikamizu's eyes looked to the tree. "That's where they are…" He grabbed a handful of shuriken and kunai and threw them at the point of the tree where the weapons came from. A blast of fire shot out of the tree, setting it ablaze, but continued toward Shikamizu and Tanahi. Shikamizu did another hand seal, exclaiming, "Mizu Sen!" He outstretched his arm as far as he could and flattened his palm. His clones reverted to water, and swirled around his hands in a sphere, until he shot it in a beam at the fire. Steam was everywhere.

From the side, the other ninja came, and threw a kunai into Shikamizu's side. He grunted and blood dripped out. He then pulled out a shuriken, of quite large size. Roughly the size of a television. Shikamizu stood with fear. He couldn't stop shooting the water, or he'd get burnt. On the other hand, if he didn't defend himself from the enemy, he'd be killed. He looked behind him and saw Tanahi.

'She's frozen with fear. I gotta do something.' Shikamizu looked, thought, eventually prayed they'd find a way to survive. Then, he heard, something like choking. He looked to his side, and saw Turan holding the enemy by the throat. But something was wrong. It was as though there was a dark aura around him. "Turan, are you okay?" Turan turned, and Shikamizu thought he was having a nightmare. His eyes were blood red, and strange whisker-like marks appeared on his cheeks. His nails were also longer, and much sharper. He even had slitted eyes. He kept squeezing, harder and harder. You could hear the tightening of his grip. "Turan, stop! STOP!!!" Shikamizu exclaimed. Turan growled, and squeezed harder, until the kids head, popped right off. Blood squirted out of his neck and head. Shikamizu was speechless. He just saw his good friend, kill someone, with his bare hand. The fire stopped.

The other ninja jumped down. "Kori!" He ran to the corps of his friend. He got up to attack Turan, but as soon as he stood, Turan placed his hands on the side of his head, and squeezed so hard, that he crushed his head. Blood shot in random directions, and out of the neck. Shikamizu and Tanahi gasped. Turan tuned to them. "I have a strong urge to live. I must live… I shall not lose life!" They heard rustling nearby. They looked and saw another ninja. On the same team as the other two. Before he could even speak a word, Turan appeared in front of him, knocked him to the ground, stuck his hand in his chest, and ripped his living heart out. Blood squirted of the heart, and covered his chest. Shikamizu and Tanahi were going pale. They couldn't believe their eyes. They were only here for five hours, and Turan had killed three people. Turan's "claws" were covered in blood. He tore the heart to shreds, increasing the blood. Turan had a look of pure disgust on his face. "Filthy vermin…"

"Hm… That demon's as strong as leader thought… I must seal it. Furui isn't with me, so if I attack him in a battle, there's risk of me being killed, since he's the one that would contain it. No…" The man said.

Turan averted his gaze to his side. He swung his arm out and caught several kunai, mostly cutting his hand, spewing more blood. Turan growled. Then, a small grey bug crawled up onto his chest. He was about to grab it, when it exploded.

Tanahi's face looked as white as the paper you're reading off of. "TURAN!!!"

From the bushes the man emerged. "I didn't think the demon would be the weak. No…"

When the smoke cleared, Turan stood, he was unharmed, all that happened was, his jacket and shirt fell of. "Was that… Supposed to hurt me? It didn't even tickle." This time, his voice had an evil back tone. "Hm… I guess you are stronger than that. Nah…" The man put his hand behind his back. Four small flames of black color appeared on each of his fingers. In each flame was a symbol. On the index was: 火 (Fire). On the middle was: 空間 (void). On the ring was: 風 (Wind). On the pinky was: 水 (Water). On the thumb was: 地球 (Earth).

"I'll kill you filthy vermin!" Turan charged at the man, ready to slash him to bits. Just as Turan was about to swing his claw, the man forced his fingers into his stomach, exclaiming, "Kyousei Gogyō Fūin!" Turan screeched in agony. He flew back into a tree. He impacted and lost consciousness. The man walked over to him and placed his hand on his chest. A bright light shone, and then the man was gone. On Turan however, was a mark. It looked like a winged snake eating it's own tail, with three triangles inside the circle it made, with triangles at the sides of those.

Tanahi and Shikamizu weren't exactly sure what had happened. They were still in shock. So much had happened so fast.

"Sh-Shikamizu… I-I th-think w-we should g-get, ou-out o-of h-here…"

"I-I a-agree. Le-lets find a safer p-place…"

Shikamizu and Tanahi gathered Turan and his jacket and shirt, and began to search for a place to rest. They eventually came to a hollow tree that led deep into the ground. They decided it'd have to do for tonight. They crawled deep in. Shikamizu did a hand seal and whispered, "Bunshin no Jutsu." His clone crawled to the front.

"Why'd you do that?"

"It has a string on it. If it's attacked, the clone will pop, and the string will fall, since it has a rock on it, it will pull this bell, to my ear, and I'll wake up."

"So then you can wake me up, so we both can watch as we're cornered and die?"

"No! So we can escape. I have explosive tags with me."

"I hope you know what you're talking about…"

"It's risky, but it's our best bet."

Tanahi sighed. "G'night…"

"Good night…"

VIOLENCE!!! A WORLD WHERE BLOOD CLATTERS FROM THE DEEP AND ENGULFS ALL THAT IS IN A CHAOTIC FRENZY OF MADNESS!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Hm? Guess I got carried away there. Sorry. But yeah, violent chapter, and, we got an odd seal. I don't think I'll mention it's name for a while, so I'll tell you know. It's the… No, I won't tell you. But I didn't make it up. It's an actual symbol. It's called the Ouroboros. That's not the name I'll give it, but that's what it's true name is. So if you want to see what it really looks like, look it up. Well, sorry about the wait by the way. It took me a while to type this one. I'll see you guys later!
