Chapter 35

" you're an interesting child" she said

Miyuki struggled to get free. she thrashed around trying to break free. the grass ninja noticed something around miyuki's neck.

" So this is..." She said reaching up touching the necklace

" Don't touch it!" Miyuki growled " I don't want your filthy hands on it! "

' So my suspicions are true this girl is from the Yuki clan...I was after one prey and I found her... She can do all of that at her age...interesting. ' She though

" you're an interesting one. Summoning ice like that it can't be melted by simple fire... " She said softly touching miyuki's cheek " I wonder what other Jutsu's you have"

' is this the end for me?...I don't want to die yet!' Miyuki though she glared at the grass ninja ' No! I won't give up! what kind of ninja I am if I can't defend myself or anyone precious to me!'

' the look in her eyes. She isn't afraid' she though as she felt a chill in the air ' Cold...is this coming from her?' she felt a crack on the ground under them. steam rose up the grass ninja quickly released Miyuki. ice spikes were aiming at her at each step until Miyuki couldn't see her as she stumbled onto the floor Miyuki was breathing heavily.

' damn it I was close to get her!' Miyuki though

' Miyuki!' Sasuke though he tighten his fist. ' she's right! If I can't learn to face against someone like her then how can I ever face him!' he walked towards Miyuki

" So it finally happened his uchiha blood has finally come to a boil" the grass ninja said

" Miyuki...thanks. Let me handle her" Sasuke said he took out his kunai. he put it in his mouth then he ran at the grass ninja.

sasuke jumped up and started to throw shurikens and kunais at her. the grass ninja dodged it as it was nothing. he gave a few quick kicks and punches. she blocked him. sasuke landed on his feet he swiftly ran to her as they started to throw punches and kicks. they each dodged the others attack. sasuke used his sharingan to see her movements even though she was faster than him it wasn't a problem for sasuke as he did a fireball jutsu. fire was everywhere. the grass ninja was underground trying to get sasuke. he quickly ran back.

' You're good. You anticipate my attacks and your aim is true you can see my moves can't you?' She though ' both of them are very interesting the boy and the girl'

Meanwhile with Anko

the sun was setting after the first day in the second Exam as Anko was climbing from tree to tree.

' Sun's going down. I gotta find him soon, the odds are bad enough as it is, worst in the dark' Anko though ' but what now? What the Hell could he be after? No matter he's here time to finish this'

Back with Miyuki and the others

the grass ninja send out a strong wind blast at sasuke he quickly dodged it. the blast hit the tree then sasuke swiftly grabbed her. they both went down. the grass ninja slammed her head on impact to the tree. the grass ninja froze by the shock. sasuke jumped back. he looked at the grass ninja as it turned to mud.

" substitution!" Sasuke exclaimed he saw kunais aimed at him but then he saw an water shield around him.

' water style: water shield jutsu!' Miyuki though sasuke looked at her. he swiftly looked around until he felt a punch. he moved the grass ninja punched him even more then Miyuki jumped down. she held a kunai and ran at the grass ninja. she saw Miyuki. they're weapons clashed against each other,the grass ninja found an opening and punched Miyuki in the gut but Miyuki grabbed her the ninja punched her again by the force pushing her back into a tree.

" What a disappointment you turned out to be as for the girl she's not as bad as I though she'd be " the grass ninja said as she looked at sasuke " your ancestors weep. The uchiha clan might thank me for killing you"

Miyuki let out a cough as there was a slight smirk on her face. what the grass ninja didn't know is when Miyuki grabbed her she gave Sasuke the chance to place small bombs on her. it was activated surprising her. sasuke took this chance to punch her back and swiftly took out some wires.

" incredible the sharingan windmill triple attack!" She said as the wires tied her against the trees as she couldn't move an inch of her body then sasuke had the wires in his hands and one in his mouth.

he did a few handsigns ' fire style: Dragon flame jutsu!' Sasuke though as a large fire streamed

Past the wire and aimed at the grass ninja screamed in pain.

" they did it!" Sakura said

" Sasuke finally dropped them" Miyuki muttered

the flames started to slowly die out. sasuke breath heavily. he saw Miyuki on the ground breathing heavily also. he walked towards her.

" hey..." Sasuke said holding out his hand towards her. she gave him a small smile as she took his hand helping her up.

" hey yourself" Miyuki said

' maybe...she...' Sasuke though. he looked at Miyuki staring into her eyes as he gripped her hand tightly.

" Sasuke you can let go now. I'm already standing" Miyuki said. sasuke ignored her he kept looking at her. she started to heat up a bit by his gaze.

" I was wondering after the Exams that if you'd like to—" sasuke started as he continued to breath heavily.

" wanted what?" Miyuki asked

" Sasuke! Miyuki! You did it! You guys did it!" Sakura said as she climbed down and ran to the duo.

' Sakura don't interrupt! Not when I'm...ah forget it I'll try again later' Sasuke though

" it's all over now" Sakura said

Unknown to them the grass ninja got loose as she used a paralysis jutsu on them. they couldn't move.

" No! Impossible!" Sasuke said

" Damn it!" Miyuki exclaimed ' Come on move!' She though trying to move.

" such a mastery in the sharingan in such a young age" as the female voice changed to a male voice. " you're a true uchiha after all...and you my dear that ice of yours is very interesting you must be from the Yuki clan...hmm...but you'll do nicely." As his headband changed from grass to a sound headband.

sasuke tries to move. Miyuki struggled to move as well.

" you are definitely his brother if anything your eyes are even keener than itachi's " he said " and you my dear I would love to try my hand at you but sadly I've already decided on who to pick"

" who are you?! What do you want?!" Sasuke shouted

As he chuckled as he took out the heaven scroll. " My name is orochimaru but what I want will have to wait until we meet again. Which won't happen until you have the best score of all" He said

As he burned the heaven scroll.

" the scroll!" Sakura said

" Damn you bastard!" Miyuki muttered as she struggled to move.

" first you'll have to defeat the sound ninja that serves me" orochimaru said

" I have no idea what you're talking about" Sakura said

" Listen to me you snake! If we ever do meet each other again it'll be too soon the next time I'll use other things than my ice!" Miyuki said darkly as she glared at him.

" heh your a bit feistier than the last person I met from your clan. oh he and I will meet again" orochimaru said as he did a handsign his neck stretched out fast bitting sasuke's neck. miyuki's eyes widen at the situation.

" Sasuke!" Sakura said

orochimaru stretched back. he looked at Miyuki.

" your power is interesting but I'm afraid is not very interesting to study It. I've already have researched your clan by someone else that abilities are similar to yours so I don't think you'll have anything else new but it was quite a show" orochimaru said

sasuke held his neck in pain. he leaned forward to Miyuki holding her tightly.

" You! What did you do to Sasuke?!" Sakura asked

" I just gave him a little parting gift." Orochimaru said " very soon Sasuke will seek me out. To desire my power in the meantime I enjoy the demonstration of the powers that you already possess. " with that orochimaru disappeared

Sasuke was gripping tightly at Miyuki screaming in pain. The only thing Miyuki could do was hug him waiting for the pain to stop.

" what's wrong with him?" Sakura said leaning towards the other two teammates swing Sasuke gripping at Miyuki tightly.

" I don't know Sakura...I don't know" Miyuki said gripping sasuke's hand while watching scream in pain. Then he passed out his head landed on miyuki's lap.

" Naruto! Sasuke's hurt!" Sakura shouted

" Naruto!" Miyuki shouted looking around to see the blonde still pinned in the tree.

The sound made the crows flew out scaring Sakura.

" Sakura...calm down" Miyuki said softly

" But! Naruto and sasuke!" Sakura said as she was shaking.

" they're still alive! Look he's still breathing. And so is Naruto they need some rest" Miyuki said " Let's get them out of here and look for shelter away from any enemy ninja."

Sakura looked at Miyuki. Miyuki could tell that Sakura was scared and Miyuki feels a little scared too. She's used to having all of her teammates ready for anything.

" I'll carry Sasuke while you carry Naruto okay" Miyuki said Sakura nod as she went to get Naruto while Miyuki gently carried Sasuke in a piggyback ride. She felt sasuke's breath tickling her throat.

" for a boy you're a bit heavy" Miyuki whispered looking at his face " you're actually kind of cute when you're asleep. I'll never say it when you're Awake though"

" I got Naruto!" Sakura said while carrying the blonde ninja.

" Let's go while there's still light out" Miyuki said

Meanwhile with Anko

She was running through the trees at a fast pace.

'I can feel him!' Anko though while jumping from tree to tree as she climb down ' he's somewhere close!'

Anko ran as fast as she could through the forest to encounter a person inside the tree.

"Well, well Anko it's been a while" orochimaru said. He started to chuckle a bit.

"this is no time to reminisce your an S-class criminal top on the most wanted list, you've got yo be taken down and I'm the one fitted to do it" Anko said taking out a few needles " after all you're the one that taught me everything I know right sensei?"

" Not quite" orochimaru said

Anko then threw needles at him, orochimaru countered attacked by attacking her with his snake like tongue as Anko dodged it. But the tongue extended even further grabbing one of her wrist.

" Striking shadow snake!" Anko said using her other hand revealing a few snakes aimed at orochimaru when the snake hits there was a cloud of smoke.

" Come out of there!" Anko yelled out when she pulled the snakes that she had with great force dragging his body away from the tree. Slamming his body into another as she ran swiftly. Taking out a kunai as she stabbed her hand into his pinning him to the tree.

" I gotcha now let me borrow your left hand" Anko said making a handsign at orochimaru' left hand.

His eyes widen for a second." That handsign " orochimaru whispered

" Right...it's over you and I are going to die here " Anko said taking a deep breath closing her eyes for a second. ' ninja art: twin snake sacrifice jutsu!' She though then orochimaru started to chuckle

" I'm afraid you will die alone Anko " orochimaru said the real one was standing behind Anko her eyes widen at this.

" that's right substitution " orochimaru said looking at Anko as the one that she pinned at the wall turn to mud as he let out a chuckle. " of course you're one of the Elite now. A righteous warrior how naughty of you. Using a forbidden jutsu I taught you." He was walking towards Anko when she pulled out the knife from her hand throwing it at orochimaru as he easily caught it. Moving even closer to her as he used a paralysis jutsu immobilizing her.

"Why are you here?" Anko asked

"What a disappointment I expected a friendlier reception after all of this time" he said

" Don't tell me you're here to assassinate Lord hokage " Anko said

" No, not yet I don't have quite enough followers for that" orochimaru said " I've heard good things about this village I though I could make it mine."

Anko held her neck as she was in pain slowly leaning to the floor.

" Oh it's the mark isn't it?" He asked " I put that same curse mark on a young man just a little while ago, he's a very promising prospect "

" you haven't changed I see, he'll die before he serves you!" Anko said

" Possibly I say the odds are one in ten against him" he said " of course the kid may survive you did."

"Sounds like you want it badly huh" Anko said while orochimaru gently caressed her cheek.

" oh, jealous? Is that it? You Cant forgive me can you? For using you and tossing you aside, in some ways the boy has even more potential than you have. You see he inherited the abilities of the uchiha clan and his physical condition is excellent. Yes he might well be the heir I'm looking for." He said " at the very least he makes things interesting. Whatever happens don't let the Exams end early, a few followers are also my candidates i look forward to see how they fare. Bear this in mind, if there's anything that deprived me of my fun it'll be the end of the leaf village."

With those words he disappeared leaving Anko alone.

Meanwhile with Lee and his team

" Okay that's enough resting" Neji said " the other teams will call it a day, and that means it's time to strike you know the plan right? We spilt up and fan out whatever happens whether we made contact with another team or not. We meet up back here in this spot" throwing a kunai at the ground " got it?"

" no sweat" tenten said

"Roger" Lee said

" Let's move!" Neji said

Back with Miyuki and the others

The two female kunoichi's manage to find a secluded place to rest until they're teammates wake up. Sakura was checking up on Sasuke while Miyuki checked in Naruto.

" he's finally breathing easier now but he's still got a high fever" Sakura said " how's Naruto?"

" he's fine, his pulse is good doesn't look like he's bleeding anywhere else. But won't know until he wakes up" Miyuki said looking at the two boys in the ground then at Sakura.

' looks like it's up to us...the place that we found is good but if we run into any enemies which I hope we don't...but were the only ones that can fight right now' Miyuki though

" Sakura you rest I'll take first watch in an hour I'll wake you up so that you'll stay and watch" Miyuki said

" but..." Sakura started

" no buts. You rest just listen to what I say okay?" Miyuki said

" okay..." Sakura said as she got comfortable in the tree's corner slowly closing her eyes.

' Okay Miyuki...you can do this' Miyuki though

Miyuki slowly took off sasuke's headband as she felt his forehead he was burning up. It wasn't good do Miyuki took out her handkerchief adding some water from her canteen giving it a quick soak then folding it placing it in sasuke's forehead.

"M...Miyu..." Sasuke whispered getting miyuki's attention.

' did he just say what i think he said?' She though leaning to hear him breathing

" mi...Miyuki..." Sasuke whispered

' huh?...he's dreaming...yeah he's dreaming...WAIT he's dreaming about me?! What the hell man! That's weird!' Miyuki though there was a slight color in her cheeks finding out a teammate dreams about you was just too weird. she ever though someone would dream about her. ' I just hope it's not like in dads books...if he ever thinks he can do that to me in real life...hell never have kids'
