"I can't believe what I did," Soma said, in disbelief. "It's okay Superstar," Troah said, "you're alright now." "Guys… I could've died… I almost killed someone! It's not okay!" Soma exclaimed. "You're just upset Soma… it's really okay," Katara said. "Stuff like that happens all the time during the Chunin exams," Anko said. "You see… no big deal," Katara said.
"But still…" Soma cut herself of, trembling slightly. Katara and Troah sat on either side of her, "c'mon Soma… cheer up. Troah is buying us Ramen after the exams," Katara said. Troah grumbled slightly, then smiled at her, "I'll buy you Ramen… I'm not so sure about Katara." "I won the fight," Katara said. "We didn't bet before the fight," Troah said.
"You two had to face each other?" Soma asked, almost alarmed. "Yup… and I won!" Katara said with a smile. "Oh, Troah your arms!" Soma exclaimed, not listening. She was focusing on Troah's bleeding arms, "why didn't you heal them?" "It's not serious Soma… they'll heal on their own," Troah said, happy that Soma was making a fuss over his injuries.
"But they're bleeding so much," Soma said, looking over the cuts. "They're fine," Troah said, gently, "if they get worse… I'll heal them… don't worry." "It's hard not to," Soma said, "you're my friend." Troah's heart sank as Soma said she was worried about him because he was her friend… not because she had hidden feelings for him or something. "I'm sorry to worry you then," he said, trying not to sound too disappointed.
"Oh well, I'm the one who hurt him," Katara said, getting Soma's attention. "That was unexpected Katara, good job," Troah remarked, sarcastically. "Whatever," Katara responded. She turned away from them and went toward the railing, watching the match between Hinata and Neji. "Katara how could you say that!" Soma yelled. Katara ignored her, watching the match carefully.
Soma huffed and stood up, "I'm mad at you until further notice," she said, keeping her back to Katara. Soma looked over her shoulder, noticing that Katara wasn't responding to her shunning. "Katara! How could you hurt Troah like that! He's our team-mate! Our friend!" Soma yelled. "Superstar… It's okay it was just a match… we're suppose to attack each other with all we've got… remember?" Troah asked. "I'm still mad!" Soma yelled.
Soma's yelling was distracting Hinata, and soon began to distract Neji as well. Katara turned to Soma, "Soma… shut up!" she snapped. Soma fell silent, scowling at Katara. She walked back over to the railing and watched the match, Troah between her and Katara. Neji nearly killed Hinata, which made Soma look away, remembering her own match.
