(Bell's Point Of View)

Today was the day of the third exam, and all those who passed the Preliminaries are now standing in the middle of the arena with millions of people watching us, waiting for the final exam to begin.

We were just waiting for two people which were part of my team, Naruto and Sasuke. I sighed, trusting them that they would get here on time.

Suddnely, Naruto came in through the arena doors with a bunch of raging bulls behind him which made me sigh in disappointment but I smiled at him nonetheless.

The proctor said that we had to start without Sasuke which made me frown but agreed with him as he told us that Naruto's fight was up first against Neji Hyuuga.

I was a bit concern for my crush because Neji Hyuuga has been the top genin for five years in a row and he is a genius.

The proctor said that we had to to up into the spectating spector of the arena. I walked over to Naruto and smiled at him, telling him good luck for which he rubbed under his nose in embarrassment but thanked me.

Walking up to the spectating floor and I watched as Naruto pointed his fist at the Hyuuga and told him that he was going to win.

The match begone and they just stood there, looking at each other... The audience was silent, waiting for one to make their move.

Finally, Naruto threw kunai's at him for which he blocked it then he ran at him trying to punch him. Neji dodged all of them and finally, he used his eight palm technique and severed one of Naruto's Chakra pools.

My eyes widen as I watched Naruto fall to the ground and was panting, holding his arm. I heard Neji speak, saying that he has no way of beating him which made me grip the railing in anger.

Naruto smiled, saying that he was just checking his moves, that was all. I shook my head and smiled, knowing that Naruto had a plan. "Okay, now that we are all warmed up, we can get started."

Naruto made the hand sign for the Multi Shadow Clone Justu and four other of him appeared while they reached into their ninja pouch and each grabbed a kunai.

The four front clones ran at Neji with their kunai's ready to hit him, but I knew better then to think that they would actually hit him.

Neji fought off the clones, destorying them then spoke, "You think that you can become the Hokage... It's never going to happen..."

Naruto clenched his teeth as Neji spoke about his eyes and how they can see people's limitations, and that he can see what people could never be.

I see that Naruto is clenching his fists in anger as he asked about he can judge what people can or cannot do.

"Do you think that anyone can be the Hokage? That all it takes is a little hard work... Open your eyes, all the shinobi in all the world, think that he can become the Hokage, they were born destined to be the Hokage. It's not something that you become merely by trying to become, they were chosen by destiny. Each person has a path they are supposed to follow, and he must follow it, obediently... To the end."

I narrowed my eyes as he kept speaking about that we all share one destiny which was death.

Naruto's eyes widened and his fists still clenched in anger until he thrusted it in front of him and told him that he didn't know when to give up then made about one hundred shadow clones.

They all raced after him and he took them down one by one until he said that he can't be fooled then ran to the back clone and took him out, thinking that it was the original, but it wasn't.

The clone popped and two clones from behind jumped at him, but he brought Chakra around him and spun around which knocked the clone and the real Naruto away.

He made more shadow clones and circled him, trying to get him from all sides, but he did the same attack and blew them away.

Neji then made a stance which made my eyes widen, knowing that it was the tri-grams sixty-four palms. I wanted to shout to him but I knew that I couldnt, it would distract him.

He hit all points in his body which made me scream out his name in distress as I watched him fall to the ground.

The proctor walked in between them and said that the match was over, which made me look at him in sadness,

Naruto rose his head and looked at Neji, then looked over at me and saw my facial expression and I heard him say... "No way..." I see him slowly stand up which made Neji look struck.

I smiled at him, knowing that he could do it for which I also cried, right then and there.

Neji told him to stop this and that he had nothing against him personally for which Naruto said that it was touching and that he was going to cry.

Naruto said that he had a lot against him for which he was confused.

"Oh really, I thought you were mister know it all. You don't remember what you did to hinata, huh? The way you worked on her with your mind games... tearing her down even though she worked hard to get here... You mocked Hinata, calling her a failure, all that stuff about the great Hyuuga clan, main household, branch families, what a bunch of crap! It doesn't give you the right to decide who's a faliure!"

Neji said that he would tell him about the Hyuuga clan, but I zoned out because I already knew about the Hyuuga clan and there ways of how they do branch families and main households.

I saw that he took off his headband to show the mark of the branch family for which they all get for the main household purposes.

After he was done telling him about his fathers death, he ran at Naruto with full force and hit in right in the stomach with the eight tri-gram palm, blowing him away.

Neji said that it was over and that he was a failure then he started to walk away, but Naruto told him to stop, not to walk away from him.

"I'm not done yet, I don't quit and I don't go back on my word... That's my nindo, my ninja way..." I smiled at his words and kept watching to see what happens next.

"All this destiny crap... If you really believe it then why are you the one walking away!" He said that he didn't want to waste his breathe telling him about the destiny that we were all given at birth.

"You don't know what it's like that sets you apart... A mark that can never be mark away!" I frowned because Naruto did have a mark that set him apart, Neji just doesn't know that.

Naruto was breathing healivly while he spoke, "Oh yea, I know what that's like... Well, big deal, who cares! Man, you think you have troubles? I've got news for you Neji, your not the only special one around here... Did you ever think that Hinata is suffering as much as you are? It's not her fault that her father was born before yours... But you resent her for it! You disrespect her even though she tries so hard to prove herself! All she wanted was your respect... That's what she was fighting for, even though it almost killed her! And what was that all about anyway? I thought it was your destiny to serve the main household, not to bleed it to a bloody pulp! After all you said about "you can't fight your own destiny", you don't really believe either, do you?"

Naruto started coughing which made my eyes widen and say his name softly.

Neji says that he blocked all sixty-four of his chakra points so Naruto wasn't going to be able to fight in his condition.

"Oh, really, you think that, that Byakugan sees everything! You know everyone's weakness right!" Neji said that he can prove him wrong then be his guest while Naruto agreed.

Naruto made a hand sign to bring up his chakra which made my eyes widen, thinking of what he is going to do next.

Neji said that what he was doing was pointless, and that he should give up but Naruto said that poeple called him a failure, so he was going to prove them wrong.

This made Neji flinched and activate his Byakugan for which we all saw that Chakra started to flow around Naruto, but this Chakra was orange, not blue...

This made me think about the Nine Tailed Fox sealed inside of him which made me narrow my eyes. Wind blew everywhere from the Chakra emitting form Naruto which made people shocked.

The orange Chakra formed around him making a cloak around him of the Nine Tails Chakra.

Suddenly, Naruto's speed increased and he ran to the left and behind Neji where he jumped into the air and threw shuriken at him, but Neji did rotation for which blocked his attack.

Neji threw shuriken back at him but Naruto dodged it and went to punch him but Neji evoided it.

Both pulling out a kunai, they jumped into the air and clanged the kunai's together then landed on the floor.

Naruto then ran at him and said, "If you think that's the Hyuuga destiny, it's not mine! Just stand there and take it! I will change the Hyuuga way... After I become Hokage!"

There kunai's touched and so did their Chakra which made a shining bright light then an explosion. When the smoke cleared, you could see two bodies laying on the ground, Naruto's and Neji, both in their own craters.

Sudden, a hand popped out of the ground and Neji pulled himself up then slowly walked over to where Naruto was laying and spoke,

"Sorry, but this is reality, your a failure... This match is over-" Suddenly, a hand thrust out of the ground and punched Neji in the lower jaw knocking him up and onto the ground unable to move.

The fist was Naruto's and I could see him smiling as he knocked Neji to the ground and landed on his feet.

Walking over to Neji as Neji said that he should have known that he used a shadow clone because that was his best Jutsu then Naruto spoke.

"For the record, I failed the Genin Exam three times... Because there was always a Jutsu that was on the exam, and it tripped me up every time. It was that one jutsu that I couldn't master... My clones were pathetic... That's right, I failed the shadow clone Justu every time... So don't come whining to me with this destiny stuff, and stop telling me that you can't change who you are. You can do it too, after all, unlike me... you aren't a failure..."

The proctor said that Naruto Uzumaki was the winner of the first fight which let me breathe out the air I didn't know I was holding.

He was celebrating, thanking the crowd as he walked up the stairs back up to where we were standing.

Once he got up, I ran over to him and gave him a hug in happiness while congratulating him. He was shocked at first but then slowly put his arms around me and thanked me.

The next fight was with Garra and Sasuke for which he wasn't here for which I sighed and Naruto grumbled.

The proctor said that they were going to propose the match and go on to the next on which was Kankuro and Shino.

Kankuro said that he forfieted the match for which I looked at him in shock then narrowed my eyes, wondering why he would do that.

The next match was with Temari and Shikmaru for which I sort of black out of.

**********Time skip brought to you by having a migraine**********

The battle ended with Shikamaru almost winning the match but he forfeited right at the end so Temari won the match.

The people in the stands started getting mad because the next battle hasn't started, but then leaves started to swarm in the middle of the arena while Kakshi-sensei and Sasuke appeared in the middle.

Naruto jumped down and started shouting at Sasuke for being late, but he just asked if he won his battle for which he did.

Naruto started walking up the stairs as the battle began, but a minute after the battle started, both Naruto and Shikamaru hasn't come up from the arena.

I walked down the stairs to see Naruto and Shikamaru sitting on the stairs, so I walked up to them and asked them what was wrong...

"That Garra dude... He's a monster..." I hummed, knowing that he was the One Tailed Jinchurriki but I knew that I wasn't allowed to tell them anything.

Naruto then stood up and looked at me with determination in his eyes. "We need to stop the match... Let's go to Kakashi-sensei!" I nodded and grabbed both of their shoulders then teleported them to where Kakashi-sensei was.

Once we teleported to him, and Naruto called out Kakashi-sensei's name.

"Sensei, please, you have to stop this match right away!" He was confused as to what he was proposing.

"The guy that Sasuke is fighting is completly different then the rest of us! He's about as far from normal as you can get! He think his point in life is to kill people... Don't you see, if this continues... Sasuke will die! You've got to believe me!"

Kakashi-sensei shook his head, "You know, Sasuke and I weren't just goofing around... There was a reason that we were so late getting here..." I shook my head, thinking that our sensei was an idiot, but I let it continue, trusting Naruto.

I watched the fight to see that Sasuke was trying to break the sand ball protecting Subaku no Garra. I see that Sasuke's eyes are activated to the Sharingan.

Naruto said that this was no time for talking for which Kakashi-sensei spoke, "You're right so shut up and watch!" My eyes widen at how brutal Kakashi-sensei was being to Naruto so I stood up.

"Can't you see... Naruto's worried... Why don't you believe him... Why so harsh about it!"

Kakashi-sensei looked at me with a bored look and just said to watch Sasuke because he was about to surprise everyone.

I narrowed my eyes and asked what he trained him for which Kakashi-sensei stayed quiet.

Turning my head to the battle, Sasuke ran backwards up a wall then made handsigns that I didn't reconize.

Suddenly, a lightning ball came out of Sasuke's hand and sparked all over the place which made my eyes widen and I glare at Kakashi-sensei. "You taught him the Chidori!"

He looked over at me with a bored look and I just at him with sadness. "Now I see that you only care about one person, and that's your precious Uchiha..."

His eyes widen and he quietly says my name but didn't say anything else as I looked back to the match while Naruto looked at me with a shocked look.

Sasuke ran down the wall and ran towards the ball of sand that was covering Garra.

Once he got close to the ball of sand, sand like spikes shot out at him but Sasuke dodged all of them then directly hit the sand barrier for which went through and hit his chest.

Suddenly, Garra started shouting about himself seeing his own blood and an yellow like arm grabbed onto Sasuke for which I gasped, knowing that it was the One Tails arm.

I walked next to Kakashi-sensei as tear fell down my face he looked at me and asked me what was wrong and what was happening. "It's all your fault, you know..."

He looked shocked at to what I was proposing then I wiped away my tear then I looked up at him. "It's your fault for teaching him the chidori... Because you didn't think of the consequences and didn't stop the fight, now the One Tails is going to be free..."

His eyes widen then he looked down in shame as I watched Garra shout in pain. Then it went silent as the arm retracted his arm and it went silent until the roar of a beast filled the air for which scared everyone but me and the Jonin sensei's.

The defense ball came down and and you could see Garra holding his shoulder in pain as a scary look in his eyes appeared.

Suddenly, I felt a warm, fuzzy feeling surrounded me and I started to feel tired. I knew it was a genjutsu so I hurry made a hand sign for which released it and so did Kakashi and Gai sensei while also Sakura.

An explosion happened in the Kage booth for which we all looked and saw that smoke was visable in the booth.

I could sense an army of ninja heading our way for which Kakashi-sensei and I looked at each other and nodded.

I see that it was the sound ninja racing towards us to I close my eyes. "So I was right about Kabuto being a spy." Kakashi-sensei nodded and we started to fight of the ninja's

A snake appeared and crashed the walls of the Chunin Exam arena, and from the outside walls for which led into the village.

I look over to see that Sasuke ran after Garra who fled the arena with his siblings. I sighed knowing that he want's to finish his battle.

Kakashi-sensei stopped fighting and was talking to Sakura about a B-Rank mission that he was giving to her which was to go after Sasuke and help him with his battle.

She nodded and woke up Naruto for which he tiredly woke up then she went over to Shikamaru to find out that he was awake this whole time.

Shino was in the corner and said that he was coming along as well for which Sakura nodded and said that they needed a four man squad.

Kakashi-sensei made a summoning and told him that his dog name Pakkun would guide them to Sasuke. He looked over at me and I nodded and went along with them.

As we were running through the trees sensed nine ninja following us for which I told them and Pakkun agreed with me which made me smile.

Shikamaru said that he would stay behind and fight them off for which we hesitantly agreed then went on.

We went on for about ten minutes until we caught up to Sasuke and the sand siblings for which Garra went on ahead while Sasuke followed him.

Shino said that he would stay behind and fight off the sand siblings for which we, again, hesitantly let him fight them as we chased after Sasuke and Sabaku no Garra.

Once we caught up to them, we could see Sasuke laying on branch with his curse mark activated and Garra about to finish him off.

Naruto raced ahead, right before Garra got him, and kicked him in the way.

Sakura and I landed next to Sasuke for which she looked over him, trying to see if he was okay.

A hand then reached out to Sakura trying to grab her, but I saw it and pushed her out of the way and took the hit.

I was now pinned up against a tree with a giant hand keeping me there, squeezing me to death.

I heard Sakura and Naruto call out my name in distress, but I wasn't able to answer...

I knew that I was going to die here; I felt it squeezing the life out of me...

I started to think of this one song that I heard the Hokage's wife sing to me when I was taken away from the Anbu.

'An ache
So deep
That I
Can hardly breathe
This pain
Can't be imagined
Will it ever heal?
Ooh... ooh...

Your hand
So small
Held a strand of my hair
So strong
All I could do
Was keep believing
Was that enough?

Is anyone there?

I wanna scream
Is this a dream?
How could this happen,
Happen to me?
This isn't fair
This nightmare
This kind of torture
I just can't bear
I want you here
I want you here
Ooh... ooh...

I waited so long
For you to come
Then you were here
And now you're gone
I was not prepared
For you to leave me
Oh this is misery

Are you still there?

I wanna scream
Is this a dream?
How could this happen,
Happen to me?
This isn't fair
This nightmare
This kind of torture
I just can't bear
I want you here
I want you here

God help me,
God help me,
God help me
Breathe

I wanna scream
Is this a dream?
How could this happen,
Happen to me?
This isn't fair
This nightmare
This kind of torture
I just can't bear
I want you here
I want you here
Ooh... ooh...

An ache
So deep
That I
Can hardly breathe'

After hearing the song in my head, I started closing my eyes... Right before I passed out I heard Naruto shout, "Don't worry Bell! I am going to save you!"

With that, I feel into a deep sleep...
