Yo. I couldn't wait! So much suspense!!!!!

"Who is this?!?!" asked Sakura alarmed.

"I am Orochimaru." said Orochimaru.

"But then... your... Cho?" asked Sasuke. Cho bowed her head.

"What a surprise to see you here." said Orochimaru. "I was just going to see the young Uchiha but it looks like I'll have to deal with your first." Orochimaru did some hand signs and clapped his hands together. Cho flew against a tree and screamed. Her scream was so loud that teams all over the forest heard it. They also felt a strong chakra come from that area, so they headed for it.

Outside the forest:

"What is that chakra?" asked Iruki.

"Stay here. Get the Hokage." said Anko. She leapt into the forest.

Inside the forest:

All of the teams had found there way to the forest. They saw some snake-like guy standing across from Cho, who had been blasted against a tree. Cho looked up, here eyes looked snake-like, here hair had taken the form of snakes and tattoos covered her body. The new Cho laughed a laugh that made everyone shiver and stood up. "You think you can defeat me mortal?" asked Hebinesan . (I'm gonna call her Hebinesan for now because Hebinesan has control over Cho's body for now.)

"Yes actually." said Orochimaru.

"C-cho?" asked Sakura.

"Actually Sakura my name is Hebinesan. I have been trapped inside Cho because people thought that I was a demon. But in reality, I am the one who lets the demons through into your world from the demon realm. I am the daughter of Medusa(1). Now I'm going to kill Orochimaru!" Hebinesan put a hand on her stomach and pushed down lightly, Orochimaru did the same. For a second their faced looked contorted then a snake appeared from each of their mouths. A katana hilt appeared from the snakes mouths and shot out, the two caught the swords. Orochimaru's sword was a silver color and Hebinesan's was a black katana.

"Die Orochimaru!" said Hebinesan, the two charged at eachother and a huge wave of black chakra radiated from the clash of the weapons and pinned the other teams against trees. Orochimaru summoned two graves that opened two reveal two ninjas.

"Now die sister!" said Orochimaru. Anko appeared just in time to hear that last statement and clutched her right shoulder.

"S-sister?" she whispered. Then she saw who Orochimaru was talking to. "Cho!" she yelled. Hebinesan was pushed to a tree again. But she just chuckled.

"Summoning jutsu!" Orochimaru said, a puff of smoke later and he was standing on top of a giant snake.

"Two can play at that game." said Hebinesan. A tattoo slithered off of her arm and that too changed into a snake, black like the one that held her sword. "Your lucky Orochimaru, my powers to open portals to different worlds have been sealed away... at least until Cho turns eight-teen. Otherwise you and this whole world would be destroyed by now. I couldn't care less. All the demons would be released." Hebinesan's hair had now turned into red snakes writing out of her scalp. But with his great speed Orochimaru got behind Hebinesan and stuck the sword in her back. Hebinesan's features vanished and Cho was back. Cho screamed in pain, all the other teams just stood constricted by the chakra and Cho fell onto her knees with the sword still stuck in her back. She coughed up a lot of blood.

"Hello Sasuke." said Orochimaru. His neck lengthened and his teeth sunk into Sasuke's neck and Sasuke yelled in pain.

"Until next time." said Orochimaru. He disappeared along with the black chakra that had held everyone against the trees. Anko rushed over to Sasuke and Cho. Cho pulled the katana out of her body and discarded it.

"Are you two alright?" asked Anko worried.

"Yes. But you shouldn't be here Anko." said Cho in a low raspy voice then she spat up more blood.

"True, I'll see you at the tower." Anko disappeared and Sakura and Naruto (who had appeared sometime in the fight) ran over to their team. All of the other teams went in the direction of the tower, leaving Sakura, Cho, Sasuke and Naruto together. Cho had fainted and Sasuke was also unconscious.

"Naruto get down!" yelled Sakura, but to late a kukuni knife lodged it's self into his pressure blade. He yelled and collapsed, unable to move.

'Krap! If we get attacked here I'm useless!' thought Sakura., then a guys that was hunched over, a girl with really long hair and another guy with spiked black hair appeared.

"Give us that buy." said the girl sound ninja.

"N-no." said Sakura.

"Then we will fight you for him." said the spiky haired one. He rushed at Sakura and she closed her eyes. But no attacked came, when she opened her eyes Lee was standing there with a squirrel on his shoulder.

"No body lays a hand on my cherry blossom." said Lee.

"Lee..." whispered Sakura.. Lee fought the sound ninja but got badly injured, then they started on Sakura. Sakura threw kukuni knifes at the spiky haired boy but his sound barrier deflected them. Sakura cut her own hair to get the female sound ninja off her. Soon after Sakura was down and had no more strength. Then one of the sound ninja tried to throw another kukuni but Sasuke stood up. Sakura however was frightened by this new Sasuke. His body was covered in black flame looking things and a hint of blood lust was in his eyes.

"SAkura." said Sasuke. "Point out the one who did that to you." Sakura pointed to tyhe spiky haired one. Sasuke was behind him in a second and put his arms behind his head. "Your very proud of these arms of yours, aren't you? Very attacked to them." Sasuke broke the sound ninja's arms and threw him to the side. Then a kukuni knife whizzed by Sasuke's head ans Sakura hugged him from behind. Sasuke looked around to see where the knife had come from. He saw Cho clutching her stomach wound looking at him from under her hood.

"Why did you do that Cho?" asked Sakura.. "Sasuke is our teammate!"

"I will not consider him my teammate anymore. He is now as much my enemy as Orochimaru." Cho coughed up more blood. "Now that he has the curse mark his lust for power will consume him." Sasuke's flame marks retreated back to his shoulder and Sakura let go of him.

"Cho let me see your stomach." said Sakura. Cho obeyed reluctantly. Sakura wrapped up the wound as Naruto woke up. Then the four of them headed to the tower.

"We need a scroll fast!" sais Naruto.

"Yes we do." agreed Sakura.

"Look!" said Naruto. Indeed in a clearing a little ways away there were three dead rain ninja's and a scroll was laying a little way away.

"It might be a trap though." said Sasuke.

"It isn't." said Cho. "Their chakra is dead and nobody else is near by. Lets go." So Sakura went and got the scroll. They made there way to the tower and entered one of it's many doors.

"Open the scrolls." instructed Cho.

"But Anko said..." started Sakura.

"She said not to open the scroll's until we get to the tower." said Cho. So Naruto and Sakura opened the scrolls. Sasuke yelled, "Naruto! Sakura! Drop the scrolls now!" They dropped the scrolls and a new chakra that she didn't recognize appeared.

"Y-your." started Sasuke.

"Huh?!" asked Naruto.

"Hey kids." said a man's voice. "Its been a while eh?"

"I don't understand!" said Sakura.

"Well you four look like you've really been through the wringer." said the man.

"No offense but who the hell are you?" asked Cho.

"He's Master Iruki." said Sasuke.

"Master Iruki... what are you doing popping up out of a summoning spell?" asked Naruto. Iruki proceeded to say something about a message and a warning but Cho didn't pay much attention. She wondered if Gaara's team had made it.

Meanwhile:

"Hokage-sama I have some information that may disturb you."said Anko.

"What is it Anko?" asked the Hokage.

"In the forest today I saw our old enemy Orochimaru. He claims to be Cho's sister." said Anko, the Hokage's eyes widened. "And that being inside her Hebinesan, is the one who opens the doors to other dimensions."

"I see. But there is nothing that we can do. Anything else?"

"Well, the young Uchiha has been given a curse mark."

"It is as I feared." the Hokage sighed. "But the exams must continue."

"Yes sir." said Anko.

In the fighting room:

"Congratulations to you all..." said one of the instructors, "... on passing the second exam!"

'Heh... We started with seventy-eight applicants... its amazing that twenty-one of them actually made it.' thought Anko. 'I said I would pare the numbers down to less than half, but really I was only expecting a single digit figure.'
