Discalimer: Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto… not me or Sabaku no Kiri or anyone else for that matter. However, Momo, her sister, Asauma Jr, Kayori, and a partieal Amearu belong to Sabaku no kiri. The other part Amearu, Taro, and the rest of the Akatsuki Kids you will meet later belong to ME!

The younger Akamichi child growled. She stepped into line behind Kayori. Everyone followed. Moegi then took out slips of what seemed to be, paper.

"When you touch these papers, it will rip. Some papers may rip more than once, that indicates how much chakra you have. This is the first test. You need to have a specific amount of chakra before the Academy lets you in. To get in, the paper will have to rip once." Moegi said, she started at the back of the line.

She gave a paper to the first boy, his ripped in half twice. Everyone was in shock. The next boy had his rip in half. And the next. About half way through the line, a girls didn't rip enough.

"I'm sorry, you didn't pass." Moegi said placing a hand on her shoulder. The girl ran to her parents and cried. Both mother and father glared at Moegi, then sighed and continued.

When she had come to the Akamichi girl, she snatched the paper from Moegi's hands. Instantly, it ripped three time. "Beat that!" She laughed at Kayori.

Moegi gave Kayori her piece. 'Let's see if she has a lot of chakra like Taro.'

Taro looked at Kayori, 'I wonder... Mine ripped into many small pieces. Will hers do the same.'

Kayori took the piece from Moegi. It quickly ripped five times, into very small turned to the Akamichi and said, "I did Momo!" Kayori smiled at her, showing her sharp teeth. She then looked at Taro who held his thumb up and smiled, showing his razor sharp teeth too.

Most of the kids left the line to go to their parents, who congratulated them. Only a few remained, Kayori, Momo and a few boys.

Taro walked over to Kayori, "Good job!" he said patting her head. "You and I both have a lot of chakra. We get it from Dad." he explained,

"Mine ripped five times!" She exclaimed.

"Yes, yes. So did mine." He knew she was just to excited, "Well, don't forget. You have more tests."

Kayori gasped and covered her mouth, "Right!"

Taro laughed, 'yeah, she's not always evil.'

Moegi had been recording everyone's results at the time. When she finished, she noticed all the kids were out of line. "HEY!" She shouted over the random chit chat. Everyone turned to look at her, "Did I SAY to get out of line?" She asked looking at all the kids. Slowly the kids started walking back to the line. "Don't let it happen again." Moegi muttered quietly, but loud enough for Taro and Kayori to hear. Both snickered. Moegi rolled her eyes, "Alright! Next test!"

Moegi led the line out of the room and on to a practice field. "Here we will be doing races. Individual races." Moegi explained. Kayori, being in front of the line, looked at the track. It was small enough that she could sprint around it once and make a decent time.

"So, there is a time limit for this too. It is one minute around it." Most people thought it was a reasonable time.

"So, who is first?" she asked, most kids backed up. Momo started to but she say Kayori staying where she was, so she moved back. "You," Moegi pointed to Momo, "you first." the girl groaned, she was a little on the chubby side so she knew this wouldn't be good.

"Ready?" Momo positioned herself, "GO!" And the girl shot off like a bullet. She was sprinting about a quarter of the way around the track until she became tired and she jogged the whole way. 'Wow, chubby isn't half bad,' Taro thought. He glanced at Kayori, she was cheering for the girl. 'She is to naïve to notice that Momo doesn't like her.' He just shook his head.

Momo had finally come around the track after thirty seconds and stopped at the end. "Fifty three seconds." Moegi said looking at her watch.

Momo let out a sigh of relief. "Okay." was all she said

"Can I go next?" Kayori asked, raising her hand. Moegi looked at her in shock. "Erm alright."

Kayori approached the line. "Ready" Moegi yelled, Kayori set up in a ready position. "Set!" She shifted putting her right leg in front of her and her left behind her. "GO!" She pushed off with her right foot, she had some how put chakra into her foot making her push off strong.

"Whoa!" She yelled, she continued her running but none of her strides had that extra push she had in the beginning. She heard people cheering for her which made her run faster and faster though. "Come on Kayori!" Yelled Asuma and Taro. When she crossed the line Moegi yelled to her, "Forty three seconds!"

Kayori tried to jump for joy but she was too tired. She just huffed and fell on all fours. Asuma and Taro ran over to her, "I'm... okay," she huffed. Taro picked her up and brought her back to Kurenai. "Just wait until everyone is finished." Kayori nodded and smiled, "I went fast." She whispered, "Yeah, you put chakra into your first stride so you went farther and faster." Taro explained, while Kayori just nodded.

Whoa short ne? Do not worry I'm sure the next one will be longer. I have not done much with this chapter, but as I have stated before we both are posting and working on this fic. My chapters will pop up eventually so just wait patiently. I'm not stealing this from Sabaku no Kiri, we're BOTH working on it TOGETHER!!! Remember that, please. I do not want any flames accusing the two of us to be thieves… If you think about it, it makes sense for both of us to post since my chapters will come, and it's not like I can post the second part of the story and she only posts the first half, that makes no sense.

Other then that, isn't Kayori a naïve sweetie? She has no idea that Momo hates her, poor girl. I don't like Momo she's a meanie! Though Taro's such a good older bro! *huggels Taro* He's so cute too~ [I doodled designs of the characters… well except for Kiri's characters, that's HER job but trust me he's adorable!] … Well that's all I've got to say, later readers… and if you've read ALL of this you deserve a cookie… but you won't get them… they're my cookies… MINE! *Runs off laughing evilly*
