Yamanaka Ino and Shikamaru Nara were walking down the street chatting like friends. (Well Ino was chatting Shikamaru was just mumbling troublesome under his breath.)

"Hey Ino Asuma said we were supposed to train with Team Gai today…" the shirker said.

"Team Gai? Isn't that the team Nejis on?"

"Yeah, so?"

"Grr… I HATE THAT JERK HOW DARE HE INSULT ME AND DENY MY BEAUTY!" (Chunin exams) Ino shouted at the top of her lungs making several people stop and stare.

"Troublesome woman…"

"What'd you say!?"

"N-nothing… What do you care if Neji thinks your beautiful? I thought you liked Uchiha."

"I do!" Ino said still angry "And one day we going to get married, but forehead girl keeps trying to come between us!"

"Huh? I didn't think she liked him anymore."

"Of course she does! Sasuke is perfect everyone likes him and that's why I am the only one good enough for him!" she stated matter-o-factly with a smug grin on her face. "I cant believe Sakura actually thinks he would ever like her better then the wonderful beautiful me!"

At this point Shikamaru had taken to watching clouds as he walked and trying his best to ignore the psychopathic girl walking next to him.

"She's just jealous of my beauty and Sasukes obvious love for me" she said once again with the smug look.

"I really don't think he likes either of you troublesome women… in fact he seems to like Naruto more then both of you" Shikamaru replied to her rant while still staring up at clouds.

"HOW DARE YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT!"

To make a long story short it took 5 Anbu to pull Shikamaru out of the crater that Ino smashed him into.
