Hey guys...I was seriously thinking about stopping this after i got a flame but...for your sakes, i decided to continue. Oh and don't blame me if the story sucks after this. Blame Flying fox of Snowy Mountain he's the one who made me lose confidence in writing. O hyeah, this is the end of the story. Don't forget to read the blurb at the end!
Ino and Tenten arrived at Sakura's house shortly after getting the phone call. Both were waiting in anticipation of the so called gossip. Sakura opened the door with a wide smile on her face. She ushered both in and shut the door, still smiling.
"So whats the news?" Ino said impatiently tapping her foot against the floor.
"Sit, then I'll tell you." Sakura said delaying for time. Both girls sat. Sakura remained standing.
"So??" Tenten asked.
"SASUKE IS MY BOYFRIEND!!" She screamed out in joy. Ino yelled and hugged her best friend hard. Tenten shouted congrats over and over again.
Just then a paper bomb went off, with a message attached to it.
Do ya mind pipin down!? I'm trying to sleep here!
Shikamaru
All the girls sweat dropped. Shikamaru will always be Shikamaru. However they did tone it down. A fraction...Ino soon left, she wasn't in the mood to study. So it was just Tenten and Sakura.
The music was on again and both were humming to themselves. The exam was on friday and today was tuesday. Who said they weren't nervous. Then again ninjas must always hide their feelings, right?
"Did you get together with Neji yet?" Sakura asked slyly. Springing the question on Tenten suddenly.
"N,no.I,I-" Tenten stuttered and blushed.
"Hmm. You should get together. You could make quite a cute couple." Sakura said smiling.
"Y,you think so?" Tenten asked shyly.
"Yeah." Sakura replied thoughtfully.
Tenten smiled to herself. She hoped that the Hyuuga wasn't busy next Saturday.
And so the days went by, each student studying furiously and sparring with each other. Most students had to go to Konoha Hospital at least once out of lack of sleep, and brain damage or physical damage.And finally the dreaded yet anticipated day came. Friday, also known as the exam day. The day where they would all be decided whether they were worthy of being a true Ninja...
The day of the Exam:
No one said anything, the room was packed with people yet no one was saying anything. A very odd but eerie combination. An occasional mutter or mumble sounded, either reciting a law or muttering a complicated jutsu. Finally, Kakashi came out.
"Come in and don't make any noise." He said and held the doors open.
Everyone filed in silently then gaped. The room was enormous, and it was filled with desks and chairs. Naruto fainted on the spot.
"You each have a number, go to the seat with the exact number that is on your card." Kakashi directed.
After everyone had sat down, Kakashi began handing out paper and pencils. Naruto who had just woken up, fainted again.
"Start."
There was a flurry of paper turning and scribbling noise. Sakura looked down on the paper. She would not fail this test! She would become a ninja if it was the last thing she did! With that she smiled and scanned the first question.
Describe in your own words what is chakra, and how is it used?
Oh easy! This was an easy question. Hastily she scribbled down the answer. Second question.
An enemy is hiding, his location unknown, how do you pinpoint his location without moving?
Saywha?? Sakura thought. She thought hard. It came to her slowly. She wrote down the answer though not fully sure.
You are on a mission. A teammate has fallen, will you continue the mission or help the teammate?
Sakura knew that no matter what you had to finish the mission, but she herself could not just leave anyone helpless and dying. It was too inhumane. This was a peculiar test. She scanned down the other questions. Slowly it dawned on her. She couldn't believe she was so stupid. This test was a test for character! Not any stupid law or whatsit! It was a kind of test of what "would you do" situations. She had the upperhand now. Afterall, she knew herself the best, right?
The written exam was over. Sakura and many others were exausted but she had a good feeling about the exam. They waited outside the next classroom. One by one they were called in by Iruka. Finally it was Sakura's turn.
"Sakura, I would like you to demonstrate your best offence and defence jutsu." He said, clipboard in hand.
Oh this was too easy. She smiled and filled one hand with chakra. She slammed it in to the floor. A wave of wood flew over Iruka.
"Very good." He said and smiled.
Here is what the others did:
Sasuke, Naruto, Ino, Shikamaru,
Katon, Goukakyuu no Jutsu
Tajun Kagebunshin no Jutsu
Shintenshin no Jutsu
Kagemane no Jutsu
Chouji,
Baika no Jutsu
Neji,
Hakkeshou
Tenten,
Just weapons. After all she is a weapons mistress.
Lee,
Konoha Senpuu
Kiba,
Gatsuuga
Hinata,
Byakugan, and taijutsu.
Shino,
His bugs...
Everyone was dismissed, so tired. Sakura was currently hyped up with nerves and worry. What if she failed!? What would she do then? She had no parents and definetely no life...
That night everyone slept unfitfully, dreaming dreams of nothing...
Sakura woke up, heart pounding she walked to school. The exam results were already out. It was Saturday, but Sakura coldn't enjoy it.
Walking through the front gates she saw a big billboard and students milling about. She stepped up for a closer look. There were the students name, exam result, and which group they would be in. Almost afraid to look, Sakura scanned her eyes down. There!
Haruno Sakura, 80/90, Sasuke and Naruto.
Oh.My.God...Oh my fucking god! She gasped and put her hand to her mouth. She passed. She looked around for Sasuke. There he was. She ran and jump-hugged him. He laughed and hugged her back. (Totally not Sasuke, but I feel like crap after that review...)
"I can't believe we're in the same team." She whispered against his lips before kissing them.
"I can." He said looking deep into her eyes.
"Love is fate." And pulled her closer.
