Chapter 3

"You will have 5 days to collect both a Heaven and an Earth scroll. You will be given one and will have to get the other. So the most teams that can pass are half the number that is here. Please get your scroll and find your starting gate. You will have to take both scrolls to the tower and the center." Sakura said as we walked up to the tent where they were giving out the scrolls.

"Earth scroll." I whispered to Bitto. Luckily our gate was near the place we were standing so we didn't have to waste our charka in moving over to our starting point. The buzzer sounded and we were off.

"Bitto can you hear what the other teams are saying?" Shuhan asked.

"Ya. There's a group just a half a mile over who had just said they have a Heaven scroll and are standing there talking about strategy." Bitto answered.

"Awesome. Easy prey." I said breathlessly as we ran to see them.

"First we should track down a team and get our scroll then head over to the tower and collect some other scrolls to make it more likely that we will be the only ones who pass." Said one of the ninja's. They looked considerably older and from the Country Hidden in the Rain. If we were just rookies we wouldn't stand a chance against them but luckily we were rookies with demons.

"There's one problem with that strategy, we're gonna take your scroll." I said with air and class.

"What are you wimps gonna do about it??" said the one who was acting like their leader. The others shook there head in agreement. Just the Bitto released her seal to let her demon out for a scare.

"Nice Gen-jutsu, but we aren't fooled so easily." said one of the ones in the background.

"If you're so sure it's a Gen-jutsu realease it." Shuhan said so smugly. She could sense the surprised look I gave her for her boldness and she just smiled.

"Wha-wha-what are you?" said the leader once more realizing it's not a Gen-jutus. Bitto didn't have time to respond because my sand whipped out and stole their scroll.

"Can I please freak them out?" Shuhan whispered to me.

"Have fun." I said. Bitto cackled her Raven call that sent the hairs on my neck on end.

"Call of the Wolves!" Shuhan shouted and made her extremely loud wolf call. About 30 wolfs came running around them. I had to join in the fun so I made my sand contort into me and put on the most devilish face.

"Stop!!" one of them called "Please have mercy."

"Come on guys. Let's just get to the tower." I said sauntering off. We made it to the tower.

"Great job. You guys are the first ones here. I would expect it from Sand Ninjas. By the way I'm Chouji. You guys can head over to the holding area." Said a plump Ninja who I presumed was named Chouji.

"Chouji Akimichi? Aren't you my dad's best friend?" I asked.

"Nadehsiko? I haven't seen you in forever. How's your dad doing? Lazy as always?" He asked.

"Ya, he's here actually. He conducted the 1st exam," I said "Wait he's here now." I continued as my dad walked up.

"Chouji? Is that you?" My dad wondered as we walked away.

It was at least half a day before any one else arrived and even then it was longer before any one showed up after that. Finally after the time was up we were ushered to a room that had a balcony and underneath an arena for fighting. They also had a statue which was just a pair of hands that was making the sign of the ram.

"Now I will let the Third Stage Proctor take over." Said Sakura.

A/N: Preliminary rounds are up next! I'll also reveal who fights who in the finals.
