"What was that for?" Asked an annoyed Kakashi

"S-sorry i just got startled" Kagome explained frantically. She didnt want him to be mad at her.

"Its fine" he said "I understand. I would put someone at the edge of life if they startled me that bad"

Kagome laughed at this. "hey..." She said casually

"Hn?"

"What was that really for?" Kagome asked

"What do you mean...oh..." Kakashi didnt want to tell her the real reason.

That...that...he kind of...liked her.

Kagome nodded "yeah that"

"Well I have to go" Kakashi said

"H-hey! Wait a moment! Stop avoiding my question!" Kagome yelled, but Kakashi was already gone

"Grrrr...he will so hear from me!" She growled

"Give me your passes" the officer standing at the entrance said The for students gave him their Chunin passesand entered the chamber. Once they got in the room, Kagome grabbed the collar of Kakashi's shirt and lifted him up. The room that was once loud of chattering suddenly got quiet.

"Answer my question from yesterday" Kagome said in a serious tone Their faces were an inch apart. Kakashi blushed under his mask, which was totally unlike him. He was happy that his face was covered up. He looked at Kagome with a lazy eye, which apparently made her angrier. Obito and Rin were staring at them.

"What happened yesterday?" Rin muttered

"Exactly what I was thinking" said Obito

They've never seen Kagome this angry. Kagome's face softened "Kakashi..." She said with with a sweet voice and smile. Then...her face turned into the most terrifying face ever. Everyone took a step back.

"LIKE HELL IF YOU THINK YOU CAN GET AWAY FROM ME WITHOUT ANSWERING THE QUESTION!" Kagome shouted at the poor boy within her grasp.

"Alright!" A voice interrupted "I'm Morino Ibiki" the owner of the voice announced. He had scars all over his face and looked bald. "I am also the instructor of the first exam." Kagome let Kakashi slip out or her hands

" you got lucky"she hissed Ibiki handed out papers to everyone

"this will be your test to see if you pass the first round of the Chunin exams"

"W-we haven't learned this yet" thought Rin

"You have one hour to complete this and when the one hour is up, I will give you the tenth question. The rules are dont get caught cheating" Ibiki explained "start!"

"He told us not to get caught cheating...that means we can cheat but we can't cet caught" Kagome thought. She did several hand signs.

"Wind style: eye of the hurricane"Kagome said silently. Yes, at this age she mastered her chakra style, but very few people know that. Kagome closed her eye and opened them again. She could see everyones answers clearly. She looked at everyone's paper and one caught her attention.

Kagome quickly jotted the answers down and did several more hand signs.

"Wind style: wind's whisper" Kagome said under her breath. She normally used this technique to deliver a message.

"To Kakashi, Obito and Rin: He told us not to get caught cheating...that means we can cheat but we can't cet caught" Kagome thought "go!"

"He told us not to get caught cheating...that means we can cheat but we can't cet caught" Kakashi frowned as he heard the wind whisper quietly to him.

He was confused at who sent it. He looked at Kagome who was sitting still, pencil down.

"She must have got the answers" he thought

-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"-"

Obito flinched when he heard the whisper of the wind

"Okay, got it" he muttered to himself and proceeded to do a jutsu which would be able to spy on people. He spot some and wrote down the answers. He then glanced across the room wondering who sent the message.

.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

"Amazing" was the word that went through her mind when she got the message

"Kagome is really smart" she mumbled.

Rin was one of the few people who knew Kagome's wind chakra. She pondered how she would get her answers.

-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

Kagome looked around and spotted Rin. Rin was doing some hand signed and when she finished, Kagome saw her mouth something. Then Rin wrote down her answers. Kagome smiled to herself

"Times up!" Ibiki announced. There were moans and groans of dissapiontment.

"I will now give you the tenth question" Ibiki said. There were murmurs heard across the room.

"I will warn you" the murmurs stopped suddenly and all eyes turned to Ibiki

"if one of your team members fail the tenth question, you will never be able to enter the chunin exams again. If you drop out now, you and your teammates will be disqualified from the exam, but you can renter next time...so...who's dropping out?" Ibiki said seriously

One by one, people started to get up and leave. Kagome looked at her teammates who were trying to make a decision. Obito, Rin and Kakashi all agreed to stay, so they looked over at Kagome.

She was stuck between a rock and a wall. Kagome thought it over and over again.

"Oh-no! Rin, Obito, and Kakashi might pass, but what about me?! I will surely fail..." Kagome frantically tried to make up her mind. She stood up and raised her hand slowly...

Her team's eyes looked at her nervously

Kagome's hand was shaking while it kept rising and her face looked helpless "I..."
