Okay so maybe I am a tad slow
Kuwabara: you can say that again
Shut up here we go chapter 11
No Guts No Glory
Chapter 11
Tsunade walked out to see the remaining participants of the Jounin exam. Naruto was standing in front of everyone smiling. "What took you so long?" Naruto asked "Couldn't find your dentures?"
"Ahem. Congratulations on all of you making it past the first test" Tsunade announced "mow we will begin the second test immediately"
"The last one wasn't much of a test" somebody said from the group. The boy was tall with short red hair and brown eyes. He had a decent build and woe his forehead protector on his arm.
"And you must be Yingchi Ryu am I correct?" Tsunade asked
"That would be me" Ryu responded "So what of it?"
"Never mind lets just begin the second test already. Kakashi could you please lead them to the second test and explain the rules?" Tsunade asked
Kakashi motioned for them to follow. He walked away from the forest. Naruto looked around and realized he had never been here before. It was just behind the forest of death. Suddenly the group stopped in front of a large concrete wall about twenty feet high. "This is where you will begin the second test" Kakashi explained
"What the hell is this thing" Temari asked "And how is it a test"
"If you would give me a moment I will explain" Kakashi said "There are currently sixteen of you. My job is too make sure there are only eight of you remaining. So here's you dilemma. You must go through this maze and find the center where I will be waiting. The first eight who can find my body will move onto the final stage of the exam. There will be many obstacles including traps and ANBU members who will be attempting to stop you. If you make it to the center and are not one of the final eight well better luck next year. One more thing you cannot go over, under, or through the walls. You must go through the maze. Lets begin". Suddenly Kakashi disappeared.
"Bunshinn. Tykiei Ken whispered "I should have known."
"Well what are waiting for" Naruto said "I am going to the center of the maze later!" without a second thought Naruto took off only to return a second later. "I forgot my good luck charm" Naruto said. He bent over and kissed Hinata on the cheek. Hinata blushed a deep crimson but Naruto just smiled and ran into the maze. A few seconds later everyone else rushed after him. The first passage had seven different directions. "KAGE BUNSHINN NO JUTSU" Naruto shouted and seven of his clones ran off into different directions trying to find the right passage. Shortly after each one of the remaining sixteen picked a passage and hoped for the best.
Aki stopped where she was headed and Temari who was running with her stopped as well. "What is it Aki?" Temari asked. Aki just pointed straight ahead. "What oh crap!" the entire passage was filled with exploding traps set to go off the minute any movement was detected. Temari smiled "I will take care of this" Temari said taking the fan off of her back.
"NO Temari don't do it!" Aki shouted but it was too late she had already swung her fan erupting a huge gust of wind. But the notes didn't explode instead they let out a gigantic flash. 'Why in the hell would it flash?' Aki thought 'the only things it could do would ether blind us or signal to an…' "ANBU! SHOOT TEMARI WE NEED TO GET OUTTA HERE!"
"Why there wasn't even an explosion?" Temari asked "there's no danger"
"There's gonna be lets go ANBU are gonna be here!"
"No just an ANBU" a voice said from behind. They turn to see an ANBU member in a flak jacket and a Tiger mask. "You two are about to be eliminated"
"Heh" Temari scoffed "I don't think so. I'll take this one down Aki". The ANBU thought that she was bluffing until Temari took out her fan again. "Later pal" Temari swung her fan knocking the guy back so hard he smashed into the wall leaving an indent of his body outline.
"Well Temari I must say you haven't lost your touch" Aki said "Come on we have to hurry"
Meanwhile (this part has been overly done in Animes but I think you'll like the originality of the end result)
Lee had been running as fast as possible with his weights on until he noticed two ANBU standing in between a fork. Lee stopped in front of them in a combat stance ready for anything.
"Stop we are not here to fight we are going to be less than kind" the first one said with a monkey mask
"Yes this part of the maze challenges the mind" The second one said with a snake mask
"You must answer our riddle so you can rest" Monkey said
"Or fail this test" Snake said
"One path will lead you to the end and you can rejoice in singing" Monkey said
"While the other will take you back to the beginning" Snake said
"Fine give me your riddle" Lee said
"One of us we tell you only truths" Monkey began
"And the other will tell only lies and cause disputes" Snake finished
"So you may ask us on question each" Monkey began
"To find the final destination you must reach" Snake finished
'hmmm one question' Lee thought 'I could ask which one is lying nah then they would just point to one another. How about which one likes men yeah. The lair will have to answer wrong Hahahanaha'. "Okay then which one of you likes men?" Lee asked smirking but niether one raised their hand. 'wait a sec if one is lying the…ewww I think I am gonna puke'.
"You have one more question to ask" Monkey said
"Let it help you complete this task" Snake finished
"Fine which one of you two is stronger?" Lee asked. The two looked puzzled before answering in unison "I AM!". Lee smirked and ran at them. Lee jumped into the air and aimed to kick them both "LEAF SPINNING WIND!" the attack hit them both underneath the chin knocking them back. Then he grabbed them both by the shirt and banged their heads together cracking their masks. "I am going to do this the old fashioned way! Guessing is always the best way especially when you have my luck!". Lee took the right passage and continued running.
Shortly after Sasuke came running down the same way and saw the two beaten up ANBU. "What the hell happened to you two?"
"We got hit by a truck" Monkey began
"And I must say the feeling literally sucks" Snake finished
"Umm okay then goodbye!" Sasuke said heading down another passage.
Meanwhile
Hinata was trying to find the right way out of the maze when she saw an ANBU walking down the passage. Hinata instantly took a fighting stance. "Well, well, well isn't this interesting" The ANBU said "At first I was going to just kill Naruto but I think I'll do the next best thing and kill his heart first"
"Who are you?" Hinata asked "What do you want with me or Naruto"
"I don't think you and I have formally met" The ANBU said removing his mask o show a mans face with silver hair and glasses. "I am known as Kabuto and you are my next victim".
