I don't own Naruto. Dang this is fun to type!

Cho's POV:

"Now Lord Hokage himself will explain about the third exam!" came Anko's voice. "Listen up and take every word he says to heart! There all your's my lord."

"Very well." said the Hokage. "The third examination is about to commence... But before go onto the specifics of how it will be conducted let me make one thing perfectly clear! It pertains to the underlying purpose of the exam."

'Man the Hokage likes to talk a lot.' I thought.

"Why do you suppose an examination of this nature is being jointly conducted by all of the nations in our mutual alliance?!" I tensed, 'What did this mean?' "To promote friendship among allied nations and raise the level of standards in the art of shinobi... be very clear about what those fine-sounding phrases actually mean! This series of so-called examinations is in fact..."

'In fact a what, old man!?' I thought.

"... A war-in-miniature between all of our allied lands." finished the Hokage. I wondered about this statement, 'So we are like tools? All of us are tools... they want us to kill eachother off.' I looked at Gaara's chakra, it was building in tension. He asked about moving onto the life and death stuff. "Of course Shikaku is getting impatient." said Hebinesan.

'I will not kill you Gaara.' I thought. I heard people talking but I payed to attention. Then a new chakra appeared amongst all other chakra.

"...Forgive my interruption lord Hokage but...if you don't mind handing the rest of the proceedings over tome, Gekko Hayate the proctor of the third exam." said the new chakra.

"Go ahead." said the Hokage.

"Good to meet you, everyone... I'm Hayate, Uhh before we start the exam... I must ask you all to do something for me..."

'I wonder if this guys ok. He seems pretty sick.' I thought.

"Ummm you see... there are some preliminaries in the exam proper... and whether you proceed to the main exam is contingent on how well you manage those." explained Hayate.

"Preliminaries...? like what?" asked someone.

"Master Hayate... I don't understand what you mean by preliminaries." said Sakura. "Why can't all of the applicants just proceed directly to the next exam?"

'Sakura are you that dumb?' I thought. Hayate explained something that I really didn't care about. He asked if anyone wanted to quit, no one said yes. I saw Sasuke's chakra fluctuate, apparently in pain 'Probably the curse mark.' I heard a rumbling sound and something was moving nearby.

"What is it?" I whispered to Sakura.

"It's a panel that's gonna show who's fighting." she whispered back.

"Oh."

"Oh look." she said. I glared. "Sasuke is fighting some guy named Akado Yoroi. Come on we have top get up away from the arena." She grabbed my wrist and led me up a flight of stairs I sat down against the wall trying to ignore the stabbing pain in my stomach, that katana wound still hurt... A LOT.

"Go Cho!" yelled Naruto, he pushed be over the rail and I landed on my butt.

"Naruto." I said through gritted teeth. "When I'm done you are so dead!"

"The second battle will now commence!" said Hayate.

Normal POV:

Cho stood with her arms in a fighting stance but the tattoo's did not appear.

"Well, are you going to attack?" Kabuto asked.

"Not yet." said Cho. Kabuto ran towards Cho and she ran out of the way.

"Fight back!" said Kabuto in an annoyed tone. A kukuni whizzed past his face, he ducked and it missed. Kabuto disappeared and Cho looked confused.

"Where is he?" Naruto asked. Then Kabuto appeared from below Cho and made a grab for her ankle. Cho pulled out a kukuni and launched it at Kabuto but he just caught it.

"So you think a little blind girl can defeat me?" Kabuto asked her.

"Yes," said Cho. Kabuto pumped chakra into his hand and aimed for her vital points. Cho was frozen.

"Why cant I move?" asked Cho.

"I got chakra holds on your ankles when you were looking away, impressive huh?" asked Kabuto.

"Yeah... but you have one little flaw." said Cho.

"Huh?"

"I'm the real Cho!" said a voice from behind Kabuto. She grabbed his shoulders and shoved him away from her. Now Kabuto was down and Cho was pushing his back down with her foot, Kabuto coughed up blood. "Is that all?" she taunted.

"Nope." said Kabuto. He smirked and disappeared leaving a rock in his place.

"Darn it!" yelled Cho she closed her eyes and fell to her knees.

"What's wrong with Cho?!" asked Naruto.

"No... no..." Cho's voice came from beneath her hood.

"It looks like Kabuto is using some form of mind torture on her." said Kakashi.

"No!" screamed Cho she fell forward onto her hands and she whispered "No." over and over.

"This is to easy." said Kabuto. Then his eye's widened, Cho stood up still muttering "no." then she gasped for breath.

"If you ever do that again you will never see the light o day again!" she seethed. Taking out a few kukuni she pinned Kabuto to the wall. She walked over to him and held a kukuni at his throat.

"The winner is -cough- Cho." said Hayate. Kabuto was ushered to the infirmary and some medic nin were trying to get Cho to come along too. Then finally they forced her to come and led her away.

"What do you think she saw?" Sakura asked.

"It must have been pretty bad."said Lee who stood next to them.

With Cho:

I tried to block out the words of the medical ninja around me but I still heard every word that they spoke.

"The extent of the damage that he did to her mind was very large. We will have to watch over her for a while." said one.

"Move her over here." said another. I was lifted into a bed and then they attached some tubes to me. They told me to rest, but I did not. I didn't want my mind to replay what Kabuto showed me, not now... not ever. Someone move to remove my hood but I resisted, then they gave up and let me rest. 'Damn Kabuto.' I thought as I fell asleep.

What do you think? I'm amazed that Cho's hood stays on throughout this whole thing. I wonder how she does it. Anyway please review. I really hope you like it. Thanks to everyone who reviewed my other chapters.
