I'm hoping this chapter can help you learn about Naki a bit.

Thanks for reviewing-

Long winded

Kuroshin, "Black Heart"

Naki slid into the stair room and furiously climbed the stairs, her eyes shut tightly. She collided right into someone, falling on her butt.

"…You're late." Glared Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto, and Kakashi behind him.

"…ehehe…sorry Sasuke-san. I ran into…some trouble." Muttered Naki, standing up. The two of them walked closer to Kakashi. He smiled at her. They walked in and Naki quickly walked off to a far corner, immediately feeling pressured. Random Genin started coming up to Team 7, speaking to them. Naki avoiding listening to them, looking carefully through everyone. Her eye stopped on the three familiar Sound nins…then Huganmatsu. Her eye turned to an evil look. A bit of screaming got her attention and she looked to Ino and Sakura. Her eye turned to a light haired boy, wearing a lot of…purple walking toward the small Genin group. Naki sighed and walked closer to see what they speak about, her ears strained, but she could hear them.

"Rock Lee and Gaara of the Desert." Came Sasuke's voice. A puff of smoke came and explanations later. Another puff, more explanations Naki's expression turned lazy and she walked back over.

"…Hey hey…Kabuto-san. What about Naki?" asked Naruto. Sasuke then looked closer at Kabuto.

"Naruto! Why would you ask about Naki?" asked Sakura.

"…well Sakura-chan…we don't know anything about her!" said Naruto, jumping up and down.

"…Do you have someone named Hekimetsuki Naki?" asked Sasuke. Naruto looked at Sasuke in surprise. Kabuto grabbed a random card.

"…I don't have someone specifically named Hekimetsuki Naki, but I do have someone named Hekimetsuki Nakimetsume." Said Kabuto, activating the card. A cloud of smoke came then a picture of Naki came up, who looked menacing, but her left eye was still closed. "according to this, Nakimetsume, or as she calls herself, 'Naki' who went on several missions before joining team 7, one going to the Land of Sand. Her family all died on the same day, same time she disappeared and came back right when the killer fled. It says her strength is horrible, but her speed is abnormally high, her weapon is a large scythe and she's blind in the left eye." Explained Kabuto. It was silent …for the longest of time (specifically 2 minutes). Sakura looked at Naruto, who had started Shaking madly after that… Naruto started screaming.

"I'm UZUMAKI NARUTO! And I am NOT losing to ANY of you! UNDERSTAND?!" shouted Naruto. Naki smiled. She stood up then footsteps were coming to her. She looked and saw Hugan. He grinned.

"Hey. So you mind answering a question for me?" asked Hugan, already sending Naki into a Stiff sensation.

"Yes…you may Hugan-san." Said Naki.

"…What happened to your family anyway? I heard what that Kabuto guy said." said Huganmatsu, a smirk on his face, cocky and positive that he had gotten to her. A loud, angry roar came and he found himself smashed against the wall. Sasuke looked over and noticed Naki's hateful face, the same menacing look was on her face like it was on the card. Her left eye ripped open, which was pure black in color. Sakura's face screwed up into a terrified look, a heavy, bloodthirsty Aura crowded the area. Sasuke then noticed something deep inside the black eye started to come out, something blue…like Chakra was charging into it or something. Then the Chakra turned gold, like starting to form a gold eye or something, round or related.

"What are you doing Naki-chan?" asked Naruto. Sasuke noticed the gold color disappear completely and her eye shut completely. Naki let go of Hugan's shirt, she smiled.

"Nothing. Just saying hi to an old friend." Said Naki. Hugan glared at her then left. Sasuke walked over to her.

"What was that?" he asked.

"…what was what?" asked Naki nervously.

"…Hn, I saw it. That gold in your eye."

"…you deserve to know if you've seen it…" answered Naki.

"…It's called Kuroshin… or 'Black Heart'. It's my Bloodline limit Doujutsu. Sasuke-san, it's a curse, I used it against Zabuza's allies." Said Naki. Sasuke still glared suspiciously but knew he would get no more information. He left her alone.

"Hey Punks! Don't start a fight or I'll have you kicked out of here!" snarled a voice. A man appeared, wearing quite a bit of black. "Morino Ibiki!" Naki stiffened. He soon started to explain the test they were being forced to do.

---

The test had started two minutes ago…and yet she was still as confused as a donkey. "I don't get the faintest clue on how to do this." She thought sadly. She looked carefully to the person next to her, Neji was his name? Sasuke was 2 seats behind her, Sakura was wayyy back and Naruto was much to far in front. She grunted in annoyance. She sat there…for maybe 4 minutes…until she noticed the furious tapping of pencils. "I'm not a genius…" she thought to herself…Then she smirked. "but the person next to me is…and they all think I'm blind." She sighed lightly. "But that would mean I would have to use Kuroshin to see…" she thought to herself darkly. "or…I could use Kuroshin to it's fullest Extent…but I've never used Kuroshin that far…" she sighed, her hand slipped down her face then landed to a pocket on her cloak…she fingered…a paper? She pulled it out and looked at it secretly.

"If you've seen this you figured out I gave you it. I won't want you failing this early without me killing you…" she stared at the answers then at the end of the paper it said in big letters. "love, Hugan." Her eyes glared harshly at the paper. She glared and compared her questions with his answers…she glared at him, who was right in front of her. He smirked, she felt it. "…I don't want you dieing on me…"

"Put your pencil's down. I will now tell you the Tenth Question. But before it, there is something I must say…" …Naki gave a sideways glance. Someone entered, who had gone to the bathroom. "I will now explain. You do not need to take the Tenth Question. if you choose not to, leave with your team and have a chance to become a Chuunin next year…or fail this year with your allies and never get a chance to become a Chuunin again." Said Ibiki Harshly. Everything went to an awkward silence. Many people, one at a time start raising their hands. Naruto started to nervously raise his hand. Naruto then slammed his hand down. Naki jumped in surprise.

"Man! SCREW YOU!" shouted Naruto loudly…so loudly and so powerful Naki couldn't help but grin. "Even if I'm stuck as a Genin forever! I'll become Hokage!" shouted Naruto, slamming back down into his seat.

"…Did he even consider out feelings? Not that I would back out…" said Naki to herself, a grin on her face.

"I will ask one more time…are you sure you don't want to quit?" asked Ibiki. Naki grinned more widely.

"I agree, why should we be scared of a question? No matter what there's always more then one chance." Said Naki.

"hmph, well then, You all…" Naki waited anxiously. "pass." Said Ibiki.

"What is the meaning of this? What about the tenth Question?" shouted Sakura. Ibiki laughed.

"There was no such thing!" he replied. Naki anime fell off her chair.

"What were the other nine questions for? A waste?" asked Temari. Naki then sat back up.

"Those were to test your Information gathering skills. Two ninja were put in here that already knew the answers to be subjected to be cheated off of." Said Ibiki. Two ninja's rose their arms in reply.

"Of course! It would be hard not to know." Said Naruto laughing loudly. Naki fell off her chair again.

"he…didn't…know?" thought Naki.

"Information is very important! It's a matter of life and death!" Ibiki pulled off the Bandana off his head, showing his terrible injured skull. "Chuunin's lead others! You need these skills to become Chuunin's or you will lead your friends, your companions, your allies to their deaths. You cannot be a fool." Replied Ibiki, putting the Bandana back. "I wish you all luck." Said Ibiki. Naki sat up in her seat and sighed, just then a ball busted through a window, and Kuani's were shot up, holding up a large sheet of cloth saying,

"Second Examiner, Mitarashi Anko is here!"

"This is no time to be happy! I am your second Examiner! Mitarashi Anko!" shouted Anko. "Everyone! FOLLOW ME!" shouted Anko. Naki anime fell off her chair, yet again. She got up partly and sat on the ground.

"I am not falling off my chair anymore." pouted Naki.

"…bad timing." Said Ibiki.

"78? You let 78 pass? Ahh… you're too soft. No matter, I'll cut it in half. Anyway. Ask your teacher for the location tomorrow!" commanded Anko. As soon as the door opened Naki rushed out of there and sat in the large room before the room she just came out of. She sighed deeply scratching at her face. She started walking home slowly then she glanced back to her team and a smile formed on her face before grabbed Naruto and Sakura's hands.

"You are coming with me!" said Naki.

"Where are we going Naki-chan?" asked Naruto.

"Ramen shop." Said Naki dropping their hands. "My buy." Said Naki. Naruto jumped high and ran off toward the ramen shop. Naki shrugged. Sakura sighed and ran after Naruto. Naki smiled and grabbed Sasuke's hand.

"Let go of me." He glared

"Right now you are my Captive therefore your opinions have been completely denied!" said Naki, dragging Sasuke by his hand. He looked at his hand, which was occupied with hers, her fingers entwined with his. …He'd let it go…just this once. She did help him out with the needle thing.

Naki sighed happily, her beef ramen sliding into her mouth easily.

"Why did you take us out for Ramen anyway Naki-chan?" asked Naruto.

"welll…see, I just thought of something, we are a group of four, and since I'm probably the weakest link, I'm gonna die. Sooo, I wanted to spend some time with you guys!" said Naki lightly and carelessly. An awkward silence fell upon them, and then Naruto slurped the rest of his ramen in his mouth.

"How could you think that!" asked Naruto. Sakura looked at her surprised.

"Well, think of it this way. I've got a bad feeling. But if we get out of this alive, I promise I'll buy us more Ramen. And Sasuke you have no say in this!" shouted Naki, accusingly pointing a finger at the number one Rookie.

"hn…" was his response.

" Your 'hn'-ing won't get you outta this one mister! You are forced to come, you have no say in this What-so-EVER!" said Naki. Sasuke ignored her Out of Character yell. "Don't ignore me!" she growled out. Sasuke…ignored her. Naki sighed. "Fine, Ignore me. But I will drag you here if it's the last thing I do." Said Naki, crossing her arms in a annoyed manner. Sasuke looked at her from the corner of his eyes. She suddenly snapped her fingers, leaving money of the table and turned to her friends/Companions. "I'll be a bit late for the Exam Tomorrow. I should be back by the time we get out to the gates though. I've already been briefed on the mission." Said Naki. Naruto nodded dumbly then spurted out.

"But why Naki-chan?" asked Naruto.

"…it's a long story. Mostly to see Hokage-sama. We have a small brief talk that needs to be discussed." Said Naki. She started to walk away.
