I Dont Own Naruto Or Any Characters Except For My Own

I ran towards Kakashi, brain moving ahead twenty steps as I plotted out my attack.

"Let me show you my true POWER!" I yelled, jumping into the air and showering him in a rain of kunais, as I placed a clone in my place and hid to recover some chakra before I took him on full force. Kakashi, or what I had thought was Kakashi, poofed, and a log was left in it's place.

My eyes widened as I watched him appear behind my clone and land one punch in the dead center of it's back, making it disintegrate. I quickly quit with the chakra recovery and jumped down attempting to use taijutsu on him. Punch after punch flew but none of them landed. He was just too fast!

I jumped backwards, breathing heavily, feeling my energy drain from my spar with Sasuke earlier. Crap... I definitly wasn't going to last at this rate. Kakashi jumped forward, pulling one fist backward to punch. I blocked and parried with a kick which he easily blocked. Our fight had quickly erupted into a dance of throwing and blocking blows.

I was low on energy and chakra, so my blows became sloppier and sloppier, and my blocks slower until finally Kakashi landed a solid punch into my stomach, making me double over in pain, and blood come spurting past my lips as I coughed up blood.

I flew backwards, rolling over myself to land in a just stood there on the other side of the field, waiting to see if I was even able to continue. Sasuke gaped and tried to move towards me, but Father stopped him with a firm hand on the shoulder. I moved shakily, supporting my weight on one elbow as I shuddered myself into a kneeling position. I gasped a little in pain before moving myself into a barely standing position and looked at Kakashi from beneath the veil of my hair, contemplating my next move.

I grimaced at my only move left since it would drain my chakra, but I HAD to prove myself to the Hokage and Father. I would hate myself otherwise...

I did familiar, yet aching hand symbols, extending my chakra to the area around me, drawing in moisture from the air and plants, leaving them brown and dead. Once I had enough moisture around me, I thickened the spheres of water to form a smaller than usual dragon, and with my last burst of energy, spent it spiraling towards Kakashi.

As I thought it would hit him, he poofed yet again and landed behind me again, this time hitting me in the back of the neck. As my vision blurred and dots swam in my vision, I saw Sasuke run towards me screaming my name, then all was black.

'Ugh...'

I slowly, hesitantly opened my eyes, blinking in pain from the harsh light of the hospital.

"Hey, you're up."

I jumped, twisting my head sharply and looking at the person who had spoken. A boy was in the bed beside me, holding a small white and brown puppy with a bandage wrapped around his arm. He had shaggy, thick looking brown hair, and matching brown eyes, with these dark maroon tattoos underneath that looked like triangles.

He grinned, showing off pointy white teeth. "I'm Kiba. Kiba Inazuka." Ah. So that explains the dog...

I sat up, holding one hand to my hand in pain. "Tsukiko Uchiha. But just call me Tsuki." He nodded again, jerking his thumb towards the door. "Your brother here hasn't shut about you so I know." I looked up to see Sasuke smirking at me.

"So, Tsukiko, who put who in who's place?" He teased, letting his satisfaction leak through his words. "Shut up." I shot back, unable to think of a good comeback because of my killer headache. Kakashi appeared behind him, his visable eye crinkled closed in what I guessed was a grin.

"Ahh, so she is awake."

I nodded my head towards him, accepting my defeat. "Kakashi-sempai"

He shook his head. "Just Kakashi, will be fine. So," He said, moving over to stand at the foot of my bed. "You are quite good, Tsukiko."

"Arigatou. Doesn't change the fact that I lost though." He nodded and began to speak again. "However, Tsukiko, if I had been a Genin, I would have lost, or even if I were a low level Chunin. That puts you at a highly skilled level for being in the academy." Sasuke glanced at me but my attention was focused on Kakashi.

"And...?"

A voice cut in. "And, Tsukiko, you will not have to take the Genin exam this coming week, but will be placed in a Team on the day of." I grinned, nodding at the Hokage and my father, who had just walked in. The Hokage spoke again. "However, you will not be on a team with your brother, if he passes."

My eyes widened as I nodded. I guess it makes sense... Balancing out strengths and weaknesses, me and Sasuke on the same team would cause a disadvantage. "You're tired, aren't you?" Tou-san asked, and I nodded, settling myself back down onto the pillows. The three older men left, leaving me, Kiba, and Sasuke. Sasuke walked over to the chair in the corner of the room, obviously not leaving me.

I slid down the pillows, closing my eyes and slipping into my world of dreams.

YES! THERE! Ok, Kiba's in, now to get to the rest of the story. YAY!
