Yo-What-Is-Up-My-Homie-Peeps? Hehe my friend has that on her story. Yeah... anyway I couldn't wait to get rolling. I hope you like this chapter. Oh and if you don't DEAL WITH IT! See you at the end of the chapter! Here we go!
As the clapping dies down Cho knew it was her turn to fight. Naruto came up into the stands and said "Good luck." Cho nodded. She was going to need luck to win this one, without her snakes Cho was a pretty pathetic ninja... Unless she could make Hebinesan give her the chakra.
"Go get 'em!" she heard a yell from her teammate Sakura. Cho walked over to the rail and jumped onto it. She steadied herself on the metal and waited for Dosu to enter the arena. She saw his chakra walk in on the other side across from her. Cho jumped down onto the wall and ran down the wall picking up speed and skidding to a stop in front of Dosu ad the protector.
"Are you ready?" he asked.
"Yes." said Dosu. Cho nodded.
"LET THE SECOND MATCH BEGIN!" he yelled. Dosu leapt backward a few feet and stopped facing Cho. She faced him, hand at her sides and her face was still covered by the hood.
"Are you going to attack?" he asked. Cho stood and didn't talk. "Why wont you talk? It doesn't matter, I bet I can make you scream!" Dosu touched the little speaker on his arm and sound reverberated from it. Cho knelt down on her knees and held her hands over her ears.
"What is she doing?!" yelled Lee.
"Lee!" yelled Sakura. "Your back!"
"Yeah, but what is she doing? She's a sitting duck there." he said. The sound reached Cho and it disappeared in a plume of smoke.
"What?" asked Dosu.
"Where is she?!" asked Naruto. Then they saw her: she was in a tree on the battle field holding her ears closed. She was shaken slightly but otherwise seemed unharmed, she had hid in the tree letting it absorb the sound waves. Cho walked toward Dosu and threw a few kukuni. His sound waves blew them back at Cho, unfortunately they also blew off Cho's hood.
On Cho's jaw line, on the right side of her face, was some white-ish scars that connected to make the kanji trust. She frowned at Dosu and pressed on her stomach once again. The snake came out and it coughed up the katana which she caught in her hand. The snake disappeared and Cho left her hood down. 'There's no point hiding it anymore.' she thought. Cho charged at Dosu and swiped at him with her katana. Dosu tried to dodge but the black sword caught him and sliced the metal instrument on his arm rendering it useless.
"No!" yelled Dosu. Cho smirked and aimed at his other arm, this time she missed the metal and hit flesh, she sliced his arm completely off from the elbow down! Dosu fell to the ground and Cho ran over to him. She made a few hand-signs and Dosu was slammed up against the wall. The only thing that Dosu had to protect himself were shiruken, they were no match for Cho's katana. Cho's eyes filled with killer intent as Hebinesan's voice grew stronger in her mind.
"He is holding you back, if you let him go now then your wasting this opportunity to get stronger. To kill Orochimaru, is that what you want Cho?" asked Hebinesan. Cho's grip on the katana tightened. "This Dosu, he works for Orochimaru I can sense Orochimaru's chakra around him. Do you want one of Orochimaru's henchmen to survive? I think not. Kill him Cho!" Cho swung her katana once again connecting with Dosu's shiruken. She smirked and attacked, aiming for the heart, she hit her mark. Dosu coughed up blood slumped over and was dead.But Cho was not done, she decapitated him and then turned to face the protector with a murderous glint in her usually misty eyes.
"W-winner, Cho." said the protector. Cho swallowed the katana again. And walked up the wall toward where Naruto was. Cho resumed her place in the stands. She felt Naruto's eyes on her but did not acknowledge them. Cho heard yells from the different villages: They wanted to see Sasuke vs. Gaara. 'Well, I cant sense Sasuke's chakra... he must not be in the arena.' thought Cho.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! THE CONTESTANT FOR THE NEXT MATCH HASN'T ARRIVED YET! THEREFOR WE WILL PUSH THIS MATCH BACK AND PROCEED TO THE NEXT ONE!" came the protectors voice.
'Of corse, many people just came for Gaara's and Sasuke's fight.' thought Cho. 'Well, Gaara you have a bit of time before you face my teammate.' Cho turned her head and looked for the familiar chakra signature of the Kazekage, Gaara's father, she saw him sitting next to the Hokage. 'He wants Gaara dead, there is no other thing he wants more. He thinks Gaara is too dangerous to keep around.'
"Which is odd, the Hokage didn't try to kill us. I am more powerful that Shikaku! How dare he underestimate me!" Hebinesan yelled.
'No, your not really Hebinesan. Calm down.' thought Cho. 'Lets just watch the next match.'
"AND NOW, THE NEXT MATCH! KANKURO AND ABURAME SHINO! COME DOWN!" Came the protectors voice.
"I forfeit!" Yelled Kankuro. Cho turned her head to his voice.
'What?!' Temari went down to the field with a wave of her fan. 'Why did he quit? What's wrong with him? Whats going on?' thought Cho.
"Looks like your eager." said the protector. "Shikamaru get down here!"
"Alright Shikamaru! Go for it!" Naruto yelled right in Cho's ear. Shikamaru fell down as Cho clamped her hand over the mouth of her moronic teammate. Naruto looked at her but her but Cho's eyes remained on the field. Naruto noticed that her eyes were more focused on the arena then was normal for a blind person, not that he had seen many.
"What? Are you going to give up too?" asked Temari. Cho released his grip over Naruto's mouth and Naruto took the opportunity to yell,
"Shikamaru! Good luck!"
"If you wont come then I will." said Temari charging.
"Hey I didn't start the match yet!" yelled the protector.
"Aw man... that girl is really revved up." said Shikamaru.
"You know, I don't really want to fight... and I don't care if I become a chuunin or not..." said Shikamaru. "But I'm not going to loose to a girl!"
'I really hate him right now.' thought Cho.
"Why?" asked Hebinesan.
'Saying that a girl cant fight is like saying I couldn't because I'm blind.' Cho explained.
"And we all know that's not true." said Hebinesan.
"Cant have a guy loose to a girl... So I guess I'll do it!" said Shikamaru. Temari used her fan and Shikamaru disappeared to the other side of the field.
"Go Shikamaru!" yelled a girl's voice.
"Ninpou kamaitachi!" yelled Temari swirling her fan. The wind it created blew the trees around and Shikamaru's chakra became long again. Temari jumped back several times to avoid it.
"Ah... I see. I've seen through your kagemane no jutsu." said Temari triumphantly swiping her fan across the earth creating a line where the shadow had come to a stop.
"Looks like there's a limit to how much you can stretch, shrink and change the shape of your shadow isn't there?" asked Temari. "No matter how much you change and stretch the shape of your shadow, you still cant stretch it any further than the surface area of your normal shadow, right?"
"Hehe right." said Shikamaru. Shikamaru bent down and formed something with his hands, but it wasn't a handseal.
"Looks like your finally going to be a little serious." said Temari unsheathing her fan again. She made a huge wind that almost uprooted the trees on the battle field. "There is not use hiding!"
Cho smirked, Temari was ready to tear this guys head off. She watched as Shikamaru threw kukuni at Temari. Then Shikamaru's shadow extended again but it did not stop where it had the first time. Temari leaped back to avoid the shadow.
"Very good. You saw through that." said Shikamaru.
"I see, you were whiling away the time." said Temari. "Waiting for the sun to drop lower. So the shadows of the wall and yourself would grow larger."
"Hmph." said Shikamaru.
"The closer the sunset, the longer the shadows grow." she finished. Then a kukuni with fabric attached to it that made a parachute came falling down. The shadow it cast touched the very tip of Shikamaru's shadow and made it longer.
"You wont escape!" yelled Shikamaru.
Oh cliffy! But those of you who have seen this fight know how it goes. Please reveiw. I would really appreciate it.
