Nuji was seated close to the front, Jiejie was in the center row, and Gege was back a few rows and over from Jiejie.

Jiejie and Gege hadn't been separated much. They are always together, being siblings and all. They were twins, actually, though Jiejie was about five minutes older. Hehehe. She's not taller or anything. Jiejie is actually a little younger than Gege in many ways. She's childish and enjoys catching butterflies. She hates getting dirty, but, once she's dirty, she loves having mud wars with the other two.

Gege, on the other hand, does not like socializing and doing almost everything the others deem "fun". He was on top of the class, but, then again, the class consisting of only nine students. He's always used his free time to read or study and was considered weird for it, but it didn't matter anyways. He'd always been an outcast, just like his twin and Nuji. But mostly Nuji…

Nuji is different than the other two. Extremely different. She's young, but she keeps the others on top of chores and cleaning in their master's house. She makes sure that Gege has a book to read for every journey, and that Jiejie has plenty of kunai for target practice on pesky flies...And birds…And annoying people. Hehe.

It wasn't that soon that Nuji realized that the problems were impossible.

"...what's the velocity of...this is impossible!"

"How is...does this...no...that guy looks like he's got it, though...perhaps I should copy him?"

"Maybe if I...No, that doesn't work either…"

After only ten minutes, Nuji tracked down two people who seemed to be undercover.

"It would be funny if one of these kids could read my thoughts and knew that I was actually a chunin and was totally undercover…"

"It doesn't look like any of them have figured it out."

Nuji began tapping her pencil.

Tap-tap tap tap-tap tap. Tap tap tap tap. Tap. Tap tap-tap. Tap-tap.

A short pause before she continued.

Tap-tap tap tap tap. Tap tap tap-tap. tap-tap.

Another pause.

Tap-tap tap tap. Tap-tap tap-tap tap-tap. Tap-tap tap. Tap-tap.

Pause as she shifted slightly. One of the sentries were writing something on their clipboard. She listened, but she could tell it wasn't her name by the the sound of the pen.

Tap-tap tap. Tap. tap-tap. Pause. Tap-tap tap tap-tap tap. Tap tap-tap. Tap tap tap-tap. Tap-tap tap. Tap tap tap tap. Tap-tap.

Then the tapping stopped and she began writing. It wasn't until about ten minutes later that the confused thoughts of the genin in the room began to switch to annoyed mental face-palming.

"Of course, I get it now...I have to cheat…"

"That guy seems to have it down...I'll cheat off him…"

One of the sentries close to her caught her attention as he studied her, though. "That tapping...it sounded like morse code. Tap-tap tap...Cheat but don't get caught...that's what she said. Wow, she's quicker to catch up on things than the others. How old is she?"

Just to freak him out, she smirked and began tapping again.

Tap tap. Tap tap-tap. Tap-tap tap-tap. Tap-tap tap-tap tap-tap tap-tap tap.

She smirked even wider as the man's thoughts and heart beat quickened.

"Sh-she answered my question?! But how did she know what I was thinking?! Nine...she's only nine...What's her name again?"

Tap tap tap-tap. Tap-tap tap tap-tap. Tap-tap tap. Tap-tap tap-tap tap-tap. Tap tap-tap tap-tap. Which translated to "U know already."

She held back a laugh as the man freaked out mentally. She always loved messing with people. Making them break was always the most fun, but Jiejie always stopped her before she could destroy somebody's mind.

"Nuji, I know what you're doing. Stop it."

She tapped out "Fine" with her pencil, confusing the sentry slightly.

She listened to the other genin in room as the began cheating off others. Nuji, who flipped over her paper so nobody would steal her answers, heard a boy next to her get sand in his eyes. Somebody a few rows back got possessed by another genin. The sound ninja could listen to the frequency of the sound waves of a pen scratch and figure out the answer. One used mirrors and some just looked at other's papers.

It didn't take long after everybody figured out they needed to cheat that people began getting written down. Except for one. While people were getting kicked out and others were finishing, there was one boy who was still stressed out.
"Naruto Uzumaki…" She whispered as she continued with her listening. The people who'd been sitting next to her were both gone, caught and thrown out.

Jiejie seemed to be enjoying this. She was playing with the thoughts of others. With her hands under the desk, she cast her secret mind lock jutsu. With one hand staying under the table to keep the jutsu in place, she picked up her pencil and began writing in what she saw in the other genin's eyes. She was done within moments, leaving her victim to faint over her test.

Gege, however, decided to use his ink thief jutsu, one he'd taught himself as a kid for fun. He did the hand signs under the table, just like his sister, then closed his eyes. The kid in front of him was almost done, only for the ink to fade and disappear. The writing reappeared on Gege's page. Gege, that unexpressive boy didn't even let out a smile as the kid in front of him began searching for the missing words.

Not that he'd ever find them.

All the while, Naruto was still freaking out over the test.

"No no no! This isn't good! I'm almost out of time!"

It was actually quite funny when Naruto almost got hit by by a kunai. Naruto didn't try to cheat after that. Hehehe.

Soon, the last question came out and Naruto seemed to rely on it to pass. It's clear that Nuji had a strange interest in the boy and Gaara. They were different from the others...familiar in a way…
