Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto
Shibo sat on a tree limb, eating a small cake. She ate the last of it when she saw Naruto's team.
"Oooo, finally you come~" Shibo pulled a string, signaling to Orochimaru that she was close to the target. Shibo jumped off the tree limp, and followed Naruto.
"N-Naruto…!" Naruto and crew stopped. Sasuke glared at Shibo as she approached.
"M-my team's dead, c-can I join you guys?" Sasuke continued to glare at her.
"I thought it was when your team died was when you would get disqualified…" Shibo shrugged.
"Lemmie tell you the truth: I'm here on a mission to protect you, Uchiha." Shibo pointed at Sasuke. The pink-haired girl pushed Shibo.
"You don't need to protect him, he's strong enough…!" Sasuke sighed.
"Fine, and I guess the enemy killed your team?" Shibo nodded, then saw something in the tree move. A girl who had blue eyes came up behind Sasuke and hit his head. Sasuke turned as the girl kicked him. Shibo sighed, and pulled the girl to the tree.
"Oi, oi, calm down…." The girl pushed Shibo away and off the massive tree limp. Shibo caught a branch, and jumped back up. Her head was bleeding, and she blinked.
"Now, was that necessary…?" Sakura and the girl glared at Shibo.
"Yes." They both replied. Shibo sighed, her ear twitched. She jumped onto the higher branches as a mass of wind blew at them. Shibo scratched her ear as the man she was with earlier appeared.
"Father, they're all yours. I'm going on ahead." The man nodded, and Shibo ran deeper into the woods.
Shibo sat in the hall, now in a pair of boots that went up to her thighs, a pair of shorts and a skirt that opened in the front. Her shirt was a simple black one, with the sleeves shredded off. She waited in the hall for her father to walk in. He did after a while, and changed into a sound jounin outfit. Shibo smirked.
"Now, father. Did you secure the bait?" Orochimaru chuckled.
"Indeed I did, Shibo-chan. Now, why did you change?"
"Cause I wreaked of human, I wanted to change into something easier, anyways." Orochimaru scratched her ear.
"So long as you can keep this up, okay?" Shibo nodded. She stood up, and hugged Orochimaru. Orochimaru scratched her ear more.
"You're so cute, anyways~" Kabuto appeared in front of them. Shibo let go of Orochimaru, embarrassed he walked in on them. Kabuto looked at Shibo, and snickered. Shibo ran over and kicked his face like a ball, destroying Kabuto's glasses AGAIN. He grabbed her foot, and was about to throw her clear across the hall when Orochimaru cleared his voice.
"Kabuto, I will not allow you to hurt my daughter in such a way. Now, let go of her foot so she doesn't have a reason to hurt you. Kabuto sighed, and released Shibo's foot, only to get it back where it hurts. He tensed up, and fell to his side. Shibo laughed out loudly, but was silenced quickly by her father's words.
"And you, stop instigating him to attack you. Do I make myself clear?" Shibo nodded. Kabuto snickered again, then cleared his own voice.
"Now, m'lord, the Uchiha is fairing fine, but he is trying to control the seal." Shibo turned to the door.
"They're calling for everyone…" She walked to the door, and opened it. Orochimaru vanished while Kabuto followed Shibo.
Shibo was standing alone, while Kabuto stood with his team. The Hokage looked at Shibo.
"My, my, did your team die?" Shibo nodded.
"I collected their remains, you see, th-they were blown up…" The mass of people murmured. The Hokage calmed them down.
"That is part of a ninja's life. You risk yourself at every second." Shibo nodded.
"Now, let's get this started with." The old man went through the next part of the exams, which would be a preliminary match.
Shibo stood with the rest of the Oto ninja, across on a balcony from the rest. She watched the screen as it started randomizing names.
She could sense something familiar across from her. Something vial, evil. She looked up at the screen, and paled. Orochimaru was staring at it as well.
"That's…"
It read:
'Shibo Uirusu Vs. Kaoru Uirusu'
Kaoru jumped down from the other balcony, looking up at Shibo. She backed up, shaking her head.
"I…I can't fight her…I can't…" Orochimaru grabbed her shoulders.
"Remember all she did to us. You can fight, Shibo-chan…"
Shibo swallowed hard, and jumped down from the balcony. Kaoru looked at the ref.
"You just need to make sure we don't tear eachother apart. DO NOT interfere, you'd all die…" The ref nodded. Shibo took out her katana, as so did Kaoru. The tips of their swords touched, and they stared into eachother's eyes. Shibo looked down, which made Kaoru slash at Shibo. Shibo dodged the first slash, second and third. She jumped up on the wall, and spat blood into Kaoru's face. Kaoru was unaffected, and sliced Shibo's chest. She jumped up in time for her stomach to be sliced. She held onto the bar of the balcony, her other hand holding her stomach and her mouth holding her katana. She felt the skin come together, and put her katana in her hand. Kaoru sliced Shibo's hand, causing her to let go of the bar. She jumped to the ground, then back up to Kaoru. Kaoru anticipated her, and vanished. Shibo landed on the ground, looking around frantically. Kaoru appeared behind her, and landed a deadly blow through her spinal cord to her heart. Shibo coughed up blood, and fell to the ground. She stood up, and ran out to the middle of the large room. Kaoru ran at her, and tried to trip Shibo. Shibo jumped up, and kicked Kaoru in the gut. Kaoru caught her foot, and twisted the ankle. Shibo yelled out in pain, and got freed from Kaoru's grasp. She fell onto the ground, and Kaoru stabbed her though the heart again. She continued again, and again, and again. Shibo laid there, still, waiting for her time to die. But, it never came.
In fact, the stabs stopped.
The Oto jounin stood over Shibo.
"Enough, you got your fun out of her…" Kaoru laughed.
"It's not like you to ruin my fun!" Kaoru pushed the man, but he pushed her strong enough so that she fell to the ground. He picked Shibo up, and vanished. Kaoru smiled, and vanished also.
Meanwhile, the rest of the room was left utterly speechless. The room was covered in blood, and the two fighters were both gone.
Orochimaru set Shibo onto a bed, and covered her with a blanket. Her wounds were healing, but staining the white linens red. She was asleep, and Orochimaru looked over her.
"Rest now, no one else will hurt you…" He kissed her forehead, and vanished again.
Kabuto appeared with a medical kit. He knew what to do, this was a common kind of injury for Shibo. He took out some gauze pads and a big roll of bandages.
"Now, let's fix Shibo-sama up."
