Zara's sword slammed down onto her opponent's. The Amegakure ninja flinched before jumping back. Zara wasted no time in attacking him again. This time she landed a hit to the shinobi's side. The man stepped back, holding a hand to his side he raised his other to announce his defeat.

"Match! Winner Arashi Zara!" The exam proctor's voice echoed through the stadium causing bursts of joy through out it.

Zara was the last to compete meaning in only a few moments they would announce who became jonin. Including Zara only five had beat their opponent. From those five only three could step forth and become the jonin they were trained to become. Amegakure had the Arashi's on a very short leash.

The other four that passed their test came back out onto the field. Awai walked to Zara's side with a huge triumphant smile on her face. But looking in her eyes you could see the anxiety that ran through her. Tonight was the night they were to leave. Tonight they would sever all ties to this village and everyone in it.

The exam proctor came forth and cleared his throat as everyone but Zara crossed their fingers awaiting the results. "When I call your name come forth and select a forehead protector from the box." Zara's eyes drifted to the box by the man's side. In it were three Amegakure forehead protectors. She had to hide the hatred she felt from looking at the four lines that represented the village she hated most.

"Arashi Awai." The crowed cheered as Awai practically jumped all the way to the proctor. She swiftly tied the headband around her neck and then stood off to the side. She and Zara locked eyes and in a moment Zara understood Awai was second-guessing this decision. This could be bad.

"Arashi Tamaki." Zara's mind was elsewhere while she watched Tamaki collect his forehead protector and join Awai on the other side of the proctor. She had to convince Awai that this was the right choice.

"Arashi Zara." Zara shook herself from her thoughts as she calmly walked up and grabbed the last headband and promptly tied it around her head. Joining Awai and Tamaki she looked up into the crowed. She caught sight of her parents in the stands. Her mother was crying and her father had the proudest grin on his face.

"You are to report to the chief's house tomorrow for debrifing on your new lives." The proctor smiled kindly at them before addressing the crowed. "These are your new jonin!" Shouts and whistles boomed through the stadium as the crowed came down to give their congratulations to the new representatives of the Arashi Clan.

That's when Zara got the feeling of regret. She had grown up with these people and tonight she would let them down and possibly wipe them out forever. Looking at the beaming Tamaki she felt bad for him. Working so hard to get to this point just to have it taken away.

Zara shared another look with Awai, this one with understanding. Sure they would hurt all these people but they needed to. To avenge this clan they mustbetray the village. It was the only way to settle the score with Amegakure.

Zara's parents came over and hugged her. Her father beamed brighter than the sun when he said, "You've turned out way better than Kuoku. I'm proud of you."

Those words cut deep. Kuoku was her brother, the man who faced God and ended lifeless at his feet. Now she was about to go up against God herself. The guilt from those words was too great. She had to turn her head and pretend to watch the rest of the crowd.

After a few congratulatory words were exchanged the crowd began to disburse until only the new jonin and their immediate families where left. "Alright. Since you three have made it to this turning point in your life each of your parents have a gift for you.

Tamaki's parents stepped forth to present their son with a new sheath for his sword. It was solid black with gold designs all over. Zara heard Awai's breath catch as the gold shimmered in the light. Tamaki quickly freed his sword from the old sheath and slid it into the new.

Awai's grandmother walked up to her granddaughter and placed a bottle of sweet smelling liquid in her hand. Awai stared at the small clear liquid with her mouth wide open. From her friend's reaction she would guess that liquid to be Ankio, very potent poison. If you consume one drop you'd be writhing on the floor. Your insides slowly being ripped apart. Being he most deadly known in the ninja realm only skilled Medical ninja could use it. Awai's side of the family were the more medical ninjas and after each member had passed some momentous event or task they would receive a bottle of their own.

Zara knew this could've been what undid Awai's resolve but after a few moments Awai turned her eyes to her grandmother. She hugged her excitedly but her eyes were dull behind the tears. She was doing this for her grandmother after all.

Zara's parents came to her then to present her with a gift of their own. She was handed a long black case. With a questioning look at her parents she opened it. Her eye's widened. The box contained a necklace. It was a simple blackish purple lightning bolt but it meant so much more. With just a look at the source of her power she could feel a great surge throughout her. She gave her parents a very out of character hug and had her father put it on for her.

With her power source fastened around her neck she knew she could do this. For her clan, for her parents and for her lost sister. Tonight she would start to take vengeance on the village that started it all, Amegakure.

Please Review and tell me what you think. I don't think I mention it before but God and his Angel are Pain and Konan. I also lied. One more person from Naruto will be in here. She if you can spot him when he pops up (hint: it wasn't in this chapter or the last two) ;D
