The Love of a Perverted Ninja
"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god! He-he-he-he-he KILLED him!" Sakura said in shock. "Dead! As in NOT ALIVE!"
"I told you that death happens in exams," Kakashi said, reading his book.
The screen now flashed on with names quickly scrolling, slowing down until it read: 'Nara Shikamaru vs. Inuzuka Kiba'.
Kiba instantly hopped down from the balconies and sprinted towards the center of the ring with Akamaru hopping out of his jacket. Shikamaru well, he didn't do anything.
"SHIKAMARU, YOU LAZY-ASS!" Ino yelled. "GET DOWN THERE RIGHT NOW, MISTER!"
"Tch. It's too troublesome," Shikamaru whined, reading one of the books Michelle said was good.
"GET DOWN THERE OR ELSE I'LL MAKE YOU!"
"Fine, fine," Shikamaru sighed, putting the book away, and then slowly made his way down the staircase. He really didn't want to fight today. Then again, when did he ever in his lifetime?
After a century of waiting (Kiba's exaggeration), the lazy ninja FINALLY stepped on the center ring, yawning. Hayate lifted his hand, threw it down, and then shot out of the way.
Kiba gave both himself and his dog a soldier pill. Akamaru's fur turned red and transformed into Kiba. Both Kiba's hands grew claws and their jaws grew fangs. They charged at Shikamaru. Shikamaru jumped out of the two raging beasts, but found himself their target again.
Kiba and Akamaru started spinning at Shikamaru. "Piercing Fang!" The two looked like rapidly spinning silver screws. They circled around him, scratching and biting and kicking him. The fighting threw up a cloud of dust around them. They stopped, emerging out of the cloud of dust, grinning. When the dust cleared, Shikamaru was barely standing with slash marks and bruises and his hands in the sign of the rat! Both Kiba's tried to attack once more, but found they couldn't. They were trapped by Shikamaru's signature move: The Kagemane no Jutsu.
Shikamaru sighed, and then turned so that both Kiba's faced each other. Then, he did what any comedian would appreciate very much: he made them hit each other. Repeatedly. This is what it sounded like:
Smack! "Ouch, dammit!" Pow! "Sorry, Akamaru!" Bam! "Stop hitting me!" Whack! "I'm sorry!" Crack! "DAMMIT!" Boom! "Stop making me hit Akamaru!" Pow! "STOP MAKING ME HIT MYSELF!"
Two minutes later, both Kiba and Akamaru were on the floor, unconscious. Hayate checked both their pulses. He stood up, coughing, and announced, "Winner! Nara Shikamaru!" Ino screamed like an idiot.
"SHIKAMARU!"
"Troublesome…"
On the screen, the slot machine game was played once more, slowing down on the names: 'Fujiwara Taiki vs. Wong Henry'.
"Go Henry!" Kenta and Kazu said together. Henry took a few steeps towards the stairs. Suddenly, he felt faint and passed out.
"HENRY!" his friends yelled. Some med-nins ran up there and looked at him.
"He's fine. He's just really sick," one said. "He won't be able to continue with exams."
"Great!" Rika said. "First Takato almost dies, now this! The next thing you know, Kenta and Kazu will be smart and Haku will have a life!"
"HEY!" Kenta, Kazu, and Haku yelled.
Tsunade whistled loudly and she got everyone's attraction. "Ok, because Henry can't fight, we have another contestant! Nakamura Emi! Ok…now I'll get out of your way," and she left.
Taiki walked down the staircase, looking at his new opponent. Emi had brilliant white hair that streamed down to her waist and dark, brown eyes. On her forehead was a headband that had the symbol for sand. She wore a sleeveless orange turtleneck and baggy black shorts. She wore steel gauntlets that traveled the length of her wrists with spiked knuckles. There was a shuriken star hanging from her pierced ear. Under his mask, Taiki formed a grin. This was going to be easy.
The two stood in the center of the ring, waiting anxiously for Hayate to signal the start of the fight. Hayate threw down his hand and jumped out of the way. Almost immediately, the two fighters engaged in hand-to-hand combat, trading off blows.
Taiki threw a high kick to Emi's face. Emi blocked it and shot her left fist towards the Shadow ninjas abdomen. Taiki, using his right leg, pushed off from the ground and jumped to dodge the punch. He somersaulted into the air and landed twenty from Emi. Taiki used a few hand signs while the Sand ninja charged at him. Just as her fist was about to connect with Taiki's face, Emi suddenly stopped, the points of the spikes barely touching his face. She backed up and started swinging elsewhere, frantic. Everything she aimed at was nothing but the air in front of her. Sakura realized Emi was a victim of Taiki's illusion assault, probably making her think there were numerous enemies around her.
Taiki slowly pulled out a kunai knife, grinning at his opponent. Emi grew weary and tired fighting the illusionary fighters, panting and gasping for air. The Shadow ninja released the Genjutsu around her, allowing her to look into her opponents' eyes, frightened. Taiki threw the weapon; finding its mark between her eyes. Emi plopped down on the floor, dead.
"Winner! Fujiwara Taiki!" Hayate yelled. Taiki walked to the balconies with a smile similar to Kazuma's. Sasuke glared at the Shadow ninjas, his fist gripping tightly.
