Hello and yes I thank you Tempest07, gaisensei and La-Avenger for telling me her name is Moegi…..I always forget that!!!

To answer your questions Lady Laran, for the first, there is a catch to the mind-wipe jutsu that was set on her and will be revealed later on...you simply must be patient!

And for the second one, I apologize for not mentioning this or making it clearer, but Tsunade and Shizune is working full-time at the hospital, which takes up most of a person's personal life, I know that much, and since she is the best medical person she has many things to do.

Jiraiya is usually doing two things, one, he's with Sarutobi, going over and planning for the Chuunin exams and I would think it has lots of issues that would need to be solved or taken care of, (like: medics, security, diplomatic relations, feudal lords coming etc etc.) and the other is gathering information, on things such as the Akatsuki, and…well…lets just say Kakashi's little orange book (wink wink)

I hope that clears some things

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, (mayu cries her heart out, with only the thought of this fic as comfort)

Now that that's over, enjoy!

Innocence

Chapter 18

"Oh my…." Narue said staring at the crowd of people bunched in front of the admission doors. Apparently two genin drop-outs were blocking the doors saying things like, 'You're just going to fail anyways!' and 'You shouldn't even try!' They had apparently fought back a couple people, and it was shown when one back-handed a bun-hair-styled girl onto the floor.

Sasuke finally growled and pushed his way to the front, leading the way with Narue behind him and Shikamaru after her. It was kind of finny because there were many people who thought Narue was an 8/9 year old child, and they gaped because she carried herself like someone who could fight (and she can!). The crowd parted for the last Uchiha, so in little time team seven stopped before the two barring the door

"Move out of the way, I would like to enter the exam." Sasuke said loudly, catching the attention of the genins. One stepped forward smirking, "and what makes you think you're qualified to go through this door?"

Sasuke didn't answer so Narue leaned forward, putting her hand to her mouth as if sharing a secret, "We're on the second floor dummy!" the genins behind her gasped and started to whisper. The exam was supposed to be on the third floor. The drop-out genin, the one who spoke up, glowered at the crowd and at the mini-blonde, finally deciding to rush her to maybe scare her enough to quit.

Dashing up towards the girl, he brought out a kunai, pointing it at the girl's chest. He was halted in a blink though, when three things happened. One, Sasuke was behind him with a kunai pointed at his back, two; Shikamaru was beside him, a kunai poised to slit his throat and three, Narue's hand was prepared to…flick his forehead?

"If we had been enemy ninja, you would have been killed." Shikamaru smirked and jumped away with Sasuke. Narue smiled happily at the genin and waved her other hand saying, "Bye-Bye!" and then she…flicked…and the drop-out went flying. Hecrashed into his partner, and slammed them both into the wall, leaving cracks and indents.

Narue giggled as she, Shikamaru, and Sasuke all waltzed through the doors and continued on, ignoring the gaping crowd behind them. A long haired girly-boy…I mean long haired boy with pupil-less eyes watched them leave and smirked, maybe these rookies aren't really rookies at all.

Walking along the hallway, team seven was silent, preoccupied with their own thoughts. How will this test start? End? They were interrupted when they turned a corner and found it blocked again, but this time with their instructors.

"(Cough cough)…It's good to see…. (Cough cough)….you guys here (Cough) today." Hayate coughed into his hand, offhandedly catching Narue, who on first sight launched herself into a group hug with the three of them.

"Yes! It's great that you're here! Now you can go in there and kick some serious ass!" Anko exclaimed, earning a yell from Narue. Kakashi nodded and eye-smirked behind his book at the three before motioning his head to Sasuke, taking him off to the side from the group. As Sasuke joined him away from his teammates, Hayate also took Shikamaru away, and Anko crouched to her knees to speak to Narue.

With Sasuke and Kakashi

"Sasuke, during this test you will have to fight many people, and I have decided to give you these," the jounin brought two large wrapped scrolls from behind his back, carefully settling them in the boys arms, "I give you permission to use this technique, but only if your teammates are in dire trouble." The serious glint in Kakashi's eye told Sasuke he was certain.

Fighting back the excitement and joy that came with holding his special weapons, Sasuke nodded gravely, ready to use them only for that purpose.

With Shikamaru and Hayate

Hayate handed Shikamaru a ceramic white scroll. It was small, easily held in one hand but Shikamaru's eyes widened and stared at it. Hayate nodded, "You'll need this in there, (cough) it's one of your best jutsu, and you might need it." Hayate nodded again, and hacked into his hand.

Shikamaru gripped the scroll and stuffed it into the small utilities pouch on the back of his belt, shifting his sharp weapons for better reach.

With Narue and Anko

"You realize that you may have to hurt, maim, or outright kill anyone in there, so I decided to give you these." The snake-woman held out two shin-guards. They had intricate gold metal work inlayed across them and seemed to be molded for a young girl's leg.

Anko smiled, "These I had specially made for you, to see what they do, simply gather chakra into them, and kick anybody who crosses you." Anko's smile widened into a devilish grin that was reflected, (if only slightly less evil) on Narue's face.

As the group came back together, the three genin asked no questions or comments on their new equipment. When they left around another corner, to enter the test the three sensei's all poofed away and reappeared in a different room, one filled to the brim with all the different jounin sensei's of the teams participating.

Kurenai looked at them curiously, "What did you give those three?" her answer was a chorus of "Nothing"s, and three identical, large grins.

"Woooa." Narue's simple word brought a nod from the two boys with her. The room they had just stepped into was filled to the ceiling with Different genin from many different countries. Since every time a team stepped into the room, they all directed their full killer-intent on them, they were all surprised when it was reflected back at them….but only more severely.

Most of them turned away immediately, but some didn't and only continued surveying them. These 'some' included Gaara, some chick from grass, and another leaf, one they had not seen before who had glasses and silver hair.

"SASUKE-KUN!" two identical cries came from two directions, just before a pink rhino and a yellow boar came flying in, to crash-land on the poor boy. Sakura and Ino squeezed his head between them, glaring at each other from across his duck-styled hair.

Behind the two came their teams, Chouji who was smiling happily, Kiba who was laughing his ass off, Hinata who was shyly blushing and poking her fingers together, and the still silent Shino.

"HINATA-CHAN!" Narue launched and brought Hinata down with her in a giant hug. Still on the floor, the blonde hugged and nestled on the blue-ettes stomach, smiling brightly. Those around smiled at the eccentric blonde and her shy companion.

Kabuto stood by and observed them interact, much like one would with bugs. His dark eyes glinted behind his harry potter glasses, and he pushed them up when they fell. Yeees, Orochimaru-sama will be pleased, the Uchiha is coming along lovely, and the time will come to convert him over to sound. However, that little blonde, she is radiating large amounts of chakra, but she des not seem to be all in the head. Maybe this will interest his master.

Kabuto smirked before moving over to the little group, plastering on a happy, polite face.

"You're being awfully noisy, well, that's to be expected by rookies." The voice came from over to the left, and they each turned to see the speaker was the leaf Nin with the glasses.

Kiba scowled, "And who are you to say that?" Narue popped up from behind his shoulder, "Yeah!"

Kabuto smiled again and said, "oh, sorry! Let me introduce myself! I'm Yakushi Kabuto, nice to meet you." His introduction was accepted mostly by teams 10 and 8, but team 7 continued peering at him with narrowed eyes, well at least Sasuke and Shikamaru did, Narue smiled and hopped onto his back from Kiba's.

"Hi! My name is Narue, and that's Kiba and Hinata, and…" she continued with the introductions one at a time, with Kabuto tensed under her, at first she thought it was because he was unused to having a little girl on his back. When she finished she stared into his face, troubled and uncertain. He didn't feel right….as if he was covering something, something important.

When Kabuto started talking again, Narue bounded off, slipping away from the group to lean against Sasuke's side, whispering urgently.

"Sasu, the boy doesn't feel very nice, it's almost like…it's…not him?" she didn't know how to explain it, but tried harder at his confused face, "as if he's covering himself…is this important?" Shikamaru, who had been listening, thought hard, telling Narue to act normal, at least until the white haired boy lets something slip.

"Yo! Shika! Narue, Sasuke! Come see this!" Kiba called from the group, they had had clustered around Kabuto while they had been talking. He was showing them all cards, and as they drew closer, they heard and recognized the name, "rock lee." (Kakashi had stupidly invited Gai and his clone to a training session…ugh…the nightmares)

"Rock Lee, a taijutsu specialist, teammates, Hyuuga Neji and Tenten, and jounin leader Gai. Apparently has no talent in chakra as his coils are fried and incapable of channeling chakra. Has been in his team for two years, and has participated in 1-B rank mission, 7 C-ranks, and 59 D-ranks. Sounds strong."

Team seven's boys looked at each other and they both knew at once, this boy is not what he says to be. Shikamaru leaned down to notify Narue, and shushed her when she gasped loudly, attracting Ino's attention for a second. Of course she immediately turned away, leaving Narue to say, "Is he a bad guy in-infi…"

"Infiltrating and he might be, we're leaving it to you to tell Ibiki, remember how he let slip he was proctoring?" Narue nodded fast and stayed quiet. Kabuto then said something that apparently pissed off the sound team enough to rush him. Team seven stood by and watched as Kabuto jumped aside and then puked his guts out from the sound waves.

A poof at the front of the room came with a bellow as well, "YOU MAGGOTS, QUIT FIGHTING OR DDO YOU WANNA BE DISQUALIFIED?" The familiar voice of Ibiki and his signature trench coat were familiar to the team, but not the others who gulped at the man's scarred face.

"NOW SIT DOWN IN FIVE MINUTES OR YOUR OUT!" as the genins scattered to find their seats, Narue ran straight for the interrogator. She stopped beside his leg and pulled on the long coat to get his attention. Ibiki at first tried to ignore the pull but finally gave in when a strong one attempted to strip it off his shoulders.

He knelt down to the girl's height, ignoring the odd stares from the other genins. His face slowly hardened at the information coming from the girl, when she was finished he quickly straightened and told her off. The blonde ran fast and was quickly in her seat, three rows back. Many eyes followed her curiously, and she paid no mind, she was too busy staring and smiling for that.

"Today, we will be participating in chuunin exam part one, and genin," Ibiki grinned hideously, letting loose his killer intent. "I will be your proctor."

Bahahahaha
