Liana was staring the other two girls down as they were staring her down.

"The three-way match will begin," the director said and jumped out of the way.

They all just stood and eyed each other down deciding on who to attack first and a strategy for the other if they decide to fight.

*If Gai sensei had to take one of my ink bottles and thinks it causes my headaches then I will try to avoid using the ink*

Liana jumped towards Ino and she started to attack Liana. Sakura joined and they both started to fight each other. Ino kicked Liana aside to the wall underneath where the others were standing. She was in the wall when she felt the major headache again and fell to her knees.

"I can do this," she whispered as she got up and ran towards the girls.

Liana threw some punches and they landed a few of their own on her.

"I thought you two would be tougher than this," Liana said as she kicked off of Ino's back and to the center of the arena while they were towards the front.

"Really and how so," Ino asked with fists up as was Sakura.

"I am sure you two saw Sasuke smile at me on his way out as well as that hug I gave him. I bet you two were dreaming about him hugging one of you," she said and they were both getting angry.

"Yeah, like he would want to go out with someone like you. You would be lucky enough to go out with Lee," Sakura said as something inside Liana snapped.

"Oh, really, how about when Sasuke wanted to kiss me on the way to the exams, what did you think about that," Liana said and they really got angry.

They threw some shuriken at her. She caught one and hit the other ones with it.

"Really, what if he did kiss me," Liana said.

"Sure, like he would, no boy would ever want to go out with you," Sakura said.

"Oh, then why does Sasuke want to? He obviously does want to go out with me," she said and they threw more shuriken.

Liana caught one and threw it at the others again but missed one. She jump up ad backwards but then felt her drawing book fall out of her pouch and slide towards the girls opened to the page of a drawing of Sasuke sitting next to the window in class and on the other page of him smiling while she landed on her two feet.

"You drew him, who else did you draw," Sakura said as she grabbed the book and flipped through it.

"Give that back, that is very personal," Liana said and saw they were at the page that had a drawing of Sasuke that had writing underneath it saying how she thought he was troubled, stubborn, self-centered and ignorant.

"How can you say something like that about him? You are so dead for drawing him and writing such bad comments about him, Sakura truce," Ino asked and looked at Sakura.

"Truce, let's get her," Sakura said as threw the book off to the side opened to a page of her crying and bleeding.

"You will pay for that," she said when she saw Sakura was holding a page from her book she ripped out, the drawing of Neji with the comments underneath it.

"Isn't this cute, she loves someone. It says and I quote "Neji in my vision of his great power, he is the most caring person I have ever met-," she said and Liana pulled some ink and threw it at Sakura's mouth.

"Give that back, that is very personal," Liana said and ran towards her.

Ino grabbed the drawing folded it and put it in her ponytail.

"Come and get it," she said.

"Gladly," Liana said as she formed a kunai with the ink and threw it at her ponytail. It sliced cleanly through it with the drawing pinned to the wall.

"You are so dead," she yelled as she threw punches and landed each one of them on her.

Liana took each hit, punched to the wall and her head hit the handle of the kunai in the wall. She slowly stood up and felt blood coming from her head and mouth.

"I have had it with the two of you, Secret Art: Ink Octopi arms jutsu," she said and all of her ink flowed out of their jars and onto the ground. It came up towards her and she formed octopus like arms coming from a circle formed around her like Katara in the Avatar when she is fighting Zuko at Ba Sing Se. She slammed an arm to each of them but they sliced through them spreading ink every which way on the ground forming puddles of ink then jumped towards her, punched her to the ink on the ground while the rest of the ink fell onto the ground and her.

"LIANA, DON'T GIVE UP," she heard Lee yell.

"YEAH, YOU WORKED TO HARD TO GIVE UP," Tenten yelled but she still didn't move.

"LIANA, REMEMBER THE POWER OF YOUTH," Gai sensei yelled but she still didn't get up.

"LIANA, IF YOU LOSE NOW, HOW WILL YOU FACE UP AGAINST YOUR PAST," Neji yelled and her eyes opened wide. Of course, that is why I became a ninja in the first place, to kill those thugs who killed my family

She heard the director was about ready to call her out.

"WAIT," she yelled and was on her hands and knees drenched in her ink. "I still didn't get to finish my fight," she said and stumbled up.

"YEAH, LIANA, WAY TO GO," Lee, Tenten and Gai sensei yelled while Neji smiled. She smiled back and looked at the director.

"I am still fighting," she said and he nodded.

Liana focused her attention back on to Ino and Sakura.

"Now, for the two of you," she said and formed weapons of all sorts from the ink on the ground. She was about to attack when she felt a major headache that was even harsher than all the ones before. She could not push aside and collapsed to the ground face up without sending off a weapon at the girls and yelling out in pain.

"LIANA," she heard Neji yell and looked to see Neji running towards her and bent next to her. He picked up her up and held her in his arms.

"N-Neji, I-I am s-sorry for being w-weak," she said and passed out in his arms.

Neji's POV

Neji watched as Liana closed her eyes and passed out in his arms.

"Liana," he said and placed his hand on her cheek and faced her head towards him.

He felt there was ink on him but didn't care.

"Liana," he heard the rest of the squad say and were now surrounding the two of them.

"Coming through," he heard a medical ninja say and were now standing next to him.

"Boy, we have to get her out of here," the nin said.

"Alright," he said and placed her on the stretcher.

He held her hand and let go as they took her away from him.

"Liana," he whispered and watched her disappear.

"Neji, we have to get out of the arena so they can continue the match," Gai sensei said and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Yes, of course let me get something," he said and walked to where a drawing from her book was pinned to the wall with the ink kunai. He grabbed the drawing and the book on his way up to where everyone else was standing and ignored everyone else, thinking only of Liana.
