Chapter 17

"Why is Kakashi-sensei always late," Naruto growled in annoyance.

"Good morning everyone," Kakashi said. "I got lost on the path of life."

"Bull," Sakura and Naruto shouted.

"This is sudden, but I-"

"Kakashi-sensei," Naruto interrupted. "You have to let us take the chunin exams!"

"About that-"

"We're strong enough and you know it," Naruto interrupted again.

"I'm saying-"

"If you don't let us we'll kick your butt!"

Kakashi poofed behind Naruto and stuck duct tape over her mouth. "I nominated you three for the chunin exams. Here are your applications." Kakashi handed each of them a slip of paper.

Naruto ripped off the duct tape. "Kakashi-sensei, I love you!"

"You don't have to take the exam. Otherwise fill out those sheets of paper and turn them in to room 301 at 4 tomorrow. That's it." Kakashi disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"There are going to be a lot of really strong people at the exams, like that Gaara guy. This is going to be so cool," Naruto yelled to no one in particular.

"Be quiet dobe."

Naruto stuck her tongue out at him and turned to Sakura. She looked like she was depressed about something.

~*The Next Day*~

"Hey Sakura-chan," Naruto said as she joined her teammates.

"Yeah. Hey Naruto-chan," she said a little distractedly.

"Is something wrong Sakura-chan?"

"No, I'm fine."

The three genin walked to the academy. They walked up a few flight of stairs and saw a group of genin standing in front of the door. Naruto jumped to see over the body of young shinobi. Two guys were standing in front of the door. They were saying something about being kind and how hard the chunin exams would be.

"Blah, blah, blah," Naruto shouted. "Just let us in."

Sakura punched Naruto on the head. "This is the wrong room stupid."

Naruto rubbed the back of her head. "What are you talking about? That sign clearly says that this is room 301."

"This only the second floor. Even an idiot like you should be able to see through this genjutsu."

"Ah. Gomen, Sakura-chan…I couldn't"

"That dobe is too stupid to see through it."

"Shut up Sasuke! I'm impressed that you noticed though Sakura-chan."

Sakura's mood visibly brightened and Naruto smiled knowingly. That was just the pick me up she needed.

One of the boys standing in front of the door with three bandages looked at the trio. "Hmm…Not bad. You saw through my…GENJUTSU," he finished as he and Sasuke prepared to kick each other. (1)

Out of nowhere, a boy with a bowl style haircut, big bushy eyebrows, and wearing skin tight green jumpsuit. Eww… Both boys lowered their legs. The green boy sighed.

A boy with long black hair walked up next to him. "I thought you didn't want to stand out?"

"Well…" Bushy brows looked at Sakura and a light blush appeared on his face. "My name is Rock Lee and you must be Sakura-chan. Let's go out together. I'll protect you until the day I die."

"No way," Sakura flat out refused. "You are lame."

Rack Lee's head fell in shame. Naruto began laughing. Who knew the chunin exams would be so entertaining?

"You," his teammate called to Sasuke. "What is your name?"

"Aren't you popular recently," Naruto commented.

He gave his typical Uchiha response. "Hn." Both raven-haired boys whipped around.

"Naruto-chan, Sasuke-kun, let's go," Sakura cheered happily.

The three were about to enter room 301 when the bushy brow guy from earlier shouted down at Sasuke. "Hey you, with the dark eyes. Will you fight with me right now, Uchiha Sasuke?"

"So you know who I am?"

"Yes. I want to use my techniques against a genius clan member like you. Plus…" He winked at Sakura.

"Eww…He's so gross!"

"He's not that bad Sakura-chan," Naruto said with a laugh.

"You only say that because he isn't winking at you," Sakura whined. "His hairstyle is lame and those eyebrows…"

"You are an angel," Lee said as he blew a kiss.

Sakura screamed and dodged it.

"You're being such a drama queen."

"Challenging me knowing the Uchiha name…"

"You're being stupid," Naruto finished.

"What are you doing dobe?"

"I feel ignored," Naruto pouted. "Besides, it would be idiotic if you fought before the exams. What if they throw you out?"

Sasuke's expression darkened. "Let's go," he said as he walked into the room.

"That is fine. After all, I am currently the strongest Leaf Genin."

Sasuke turned back with his eyes glowing red. "I'll fight."

"Of course you will," Naruto groaned.

"Should we try to stop them," Sakura asked.

"No. Once he's made up his mind you can't change it…plus, watching him get beat up once in a while is fun." Naruto dodged the punch Sakura threw at her.

Naruto and Sakura turned their attention to the boys at the exact moment Sasuke got kicked into the air. Sakura stood speechless and Naruto cheered for Lee.

Lee appeared behind Sasuke in mid-air. "Shadow Leaf Dance. Even if your eyes can see my technique your body can not keep up." Lee started unwrapping the bandages around his wrist. "With this technique I will prove that hard work surpasses genius."

Before Lee could finish his technique, a pinwheel pinned his bandage to the wall (A/N: And that somehow managed to stop him…). "That's enough Lee," a turtle said.

Sakura managed to catch Sasuke as he fell. Naruto was a little distracted. "A talking ninja turtle!"

"Lee! That technique is forbidden," the turtle yelled.

"I'm sorry," Lee apologized. "I just…But…I wasn't planning on using the other one."

"You fool! You can't get away with an excuse like that. Are you prepared for your punishment?"

"Yes…"

A cloud of smoke appeared over the turtle and an older man that looked like Lee stood in a weird pose. "Greetings youthful adolescence."

"My eyes," Naruto screamed. "I've gone blind!" (2)

"Eww," Sakura cried. "He's got even thicker eyebrows."

"Stop insulting Gai-sensei!"

"If he didn't look like that then we wouldn't say anything," Naruto shouted back.

"What did you-"

"Lee."

"Oh, yes."

"You fool!" Gai-sensei punched Lee and he flew a few feet away.

"Sensei…" Both bushy brow and super bushy brow were crying. As they embraced each other in a hug Naruto noticed something rather odd.

"Where did that beach and sunset come from?"

"Let's go."

"Yeah, before I throw up," Sakura groaned.


A/N: That'll be good for today. I'll have more soon enough.

1-You know…I've never understood why people talk louder when they're about to hit someone. At least not until I did it myself. It's for no reason really. Although it is pretty fun.

2-Honestly, who hasn't felt like that when they see Gai-sensei.

Naruto: Lee is right! Hard work is better than genius any day.

Lee: That is right Naruto-chan. Come, let us go train together! We shall run one-hundred laps around the village.

Naruto: That doesn't sound too bad.

Lee: On our hands!

Naruto: Nevermind. Read and review. Dattebayo!
