AN: Hey guess what people I didn't die! School has been… uh… messy. Plus music and all the other jazz I have and my boyfriend and stuff, so basically I'm sorry to all my readers.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any of the songs in this chapter.
Summary: Everything in the village hidden in the leaf had settled down. No more Madara, Pein, or Akatsuki. Naruto was perfectly at ease. But when Tsunade puts the Konoha 12 in a 'Battle of the Bands' and they are forced to compete with and against each other and other teams of ninja. They want to back out… to bad they all play instruments.
CHAPTER 7A week later, six nervous bands met in the Chunnin Stadium. Wondering about what was about to go down. There were people putting up the stage and cleaning out the seats. It was 9 am, and the bands were wondering why they had to come so early in the morning. And to answer their thoughts, Tsuande came walking in.
"Okay we have made a few adjustments to the schedule. There will be four rounds, and two other bands entering.'
From the left side of the stadium, Tenten groaned. "Really, more competition to deal with? It was bad enough with six bands now we have to face two more… ugh.'
Ino walked over to the girl and gave her a whack on the head. "Don't be such a Debbie downer Tenten! This just means we have to work harder at what we are doing." The blonde looked like she was about to explode with determination, she had fire in her eyes and everything. Everyone sweat dropped and stepped away.
Naruto grabbed Ino. "Lets stay clam now Ino, we need to uh… conserve our energy?" He tried.
"Okay Naruto-kun." And it worked!
When they stopped talking Tsunade then said, "Here are the two new bands that will be completing. Here is the first new band" And in walked Anko, Kurenai, Shizune and Hana.
"Hana? Sis? What the hell are you doing here?"
The female Inuzuka slowly turned around to face Kiba. "Ah littlest pup, Tsunade-sama asked me and the three other kunochi to come play music for this 'Battle of the Bands. How lame. But Hokage's orders are Hokage's orders. Though it surprised me that other ninjas like yourselves would be here, but yet I've seen stranger."
"Hem." Tsunade loudly cleared her throat.
"And hers the second new addition." Then four others came walking in. One had long black hair that went down to her waist. She had green eyes and was about 5'6. She wore "Hey I'm Tessa, I play the guitar. I'm part of the band DotNet. Pleased to meetcha."
Another had platinum blonde hair that fell about mid back in a tight ponytail. She had soft blue eyes and was about 5'9-10. "Hey the name's-
"Whoa! Hey look, doesn't she look like Ino?"
"Shuddap baka!"
"Ow you didn't have to hit me so hard…."
"Just shut your pie-hole and let the woman talk."
"Okay."
The tall blonde raised her eyebrow and continued. "Anyway the name's Jamie I sing and play bass. It's a pleasure to meet all of you."
"See! She plays the bass too! Are you sure you don't have a long lost twin or-."
"Grr,"
"I'm gonna shut up know."
"Smart choice boy."
Tessa then started looking around franticly. "Jamie, I think we lost them!"
The blonde looked around and sighed. "I swear those two get into too much trouble."
Suddenly a voice came out of nowhere. "Oh jeez Cameron, I don't need a stupid introduction." The voice was feminine.
Jamie and Tessa sweat dropped and then started to walk toward the noise.
"Bianca! Jamie and Tes gave one so I think it would only be fair if you and I gave one."
"Bullcrap Cameron! Bullcrap I say!"
"Eh…" All of the ninjas were staring wide eyed at what appeared to be a bickering couple. In walked a tall blonde haired guy and a short raven haired woman. The man had blue eyes and piercing green eyes, while the woman had think wavy black hair and golden brown eyes.
The blonde female, Jamie, turned to face the confused ninjas. "This is my band called DotNet. We've traveled from far away to get here so some people," Looks pointedly at the short raven-head. "Might be a little crabby. Our bands bass player is yours truly. The guitarist is my best friend Tess. Our drummer is Cameron, the only guy in our band." He waves. "And our singer is Bianca, the total drama queen of everything."
"I said I didn't need an introduction, Jamie!"
"Too bad child, you got one."
'I need to remind myself why I got this band…' Tsunade placed her fingertips on her temples and cleared her throat… again.
"Well know that that's done, I told you all that we have changed the competition so here they are. There will be the First Round, where every band performs two songs each to get things started. This is so the crowd gets to hear every band play and for you guys to look out for the bands that you haven't heard. After that the judges will choose the top four bands and the lowest four bands. The top band goes against the fifth band, 2nd vs 6th, 3rd vs 7th, and 4th vs 8th. This line up needs to happen in order to proceed in the competition."
Everyone nodded their heads as they began to process the information.
Tsunade spoke again. "Then for Round Two, well you'll have to find out after the opening round."
*Queue Collective Groan*
"Okay all of you will meet back here at 5 pm to get set up. Come prepared with two songs you want to play. And don't forget to have fun!"
"Fun? Is this what she's calls fun? Troublesome."
Shino started walking away with Kiba and Hinata. "Come on Shikamaru, lets go practice some more. We need to be successful tonight."
Kiba turned around. "And I need to beat my sister." Hana was staring a hole into her brother's back as he spoke.
"Your going down pup."
"Troublesome."
After their band had left the others followed suit and only Naruto's band was left. "Well that was exciting." He got up from where he was standing and helped everyone else up. "Time to go practice!"
SIX HOURS LATERThe Chunnin Stadium stands were semi-full off people and the bands were getting anxious. They were all hiding backstage mulling around and talking. But suddenly the loudspeaker was turned on and you could hear the annoying announcer.
"Welcome to the 'Battle of the Bands', I'm your host Iruka!" He was dressed in his normal chunnin wear. "Lets meet the judges. First up Konoha's own Tsunade-sama!' There were applause and the buxom blonde walked up through the audience and took a seat on the three seats where the Hokages usually sat during the real exams.
"Next up, from Kiri, we have Mei Terumi, the Mizukage!" The beautiful red head strode down and sat next to Tsunade in the judge's box.
"Finally from Konoha as well the reluctant, perverted scarecrow, Kakahsi." All of the Rookie 9 sweat dropped and Anko's band laughed at the poor man who was now being dragged to the seat my Pakkun.
"Okay now lets meet our eight bands that our competing. First is the band from Suna called 'Drowning in Sand'!with band members Matsuri, Gaara, Temari and Kankuro.' Said people came out and the crowd cheers.
"Now the band from Kiri, 'Shrouded in White', with band members Ao, Chojuro, Midori, and Miyabi!" The Kiri band came out- well only three of them- .
"Wait! Where's Miyabi?" A few seconds later the other twin dragged herself out and waved to the audience.
The Mizukage then jumped up and yelled at the lazy woman – whci made Tsunade and kakashi jump out of their seats - . "Yasa Miyabi! If you make Kiri look bad I will see to that you will have to be Ao's personal assistant for the next year!" She quickly straightened up and sat back down.
Miyabi just yawned and muttered, "How bothersome."
Iruka just laughed it off and announced the next band. "From Kumo, 'Culture Shock', with band members Killer Bee, Omoi, Samui, and Karui." The third band onstage ran out from behind the curtain and smiled to the crowd.
"Next from uh… wait where are they from…" The dolphin chunnin scratched his head in embarrassment and kept going anyway. "Uh.. from a place in which we do not know of, the band 'DotNet'! With band members Bianca, Cameron, Jamie and Tesssa!" They came sprinting out like energized bunnies and pumped up the crowd.
"Finally we have four bands from our own Leaf Village. Up first is 'Warp the World' with Sakura, Sasuke, Chouji, and Lee. Second is the band Fatal Attraction wit Anko, Kurenai, Shizune and Hana." Both bands came out at the same time.
"Third we have 'the Troublesome All Seeing Beasts' with Kiba, Shino, Shikamaru and Hinata. Wonder how that name was formed?" They walked out calmly and stood next to the Suna band.
"And finally we have 'A Different Alike' with Ino, Tenten, Naruto and Neji!" The four arrived together and bowed one by one in a comical fashion.
"Alright now we will have each band play two songs for us just too grab a taste of what they are like. First up 'Fatal Attraction'!"
