Chapter Six: Psycho Analysis

"Welcome to the second part of the Chuunin Exams! I am your instructor Mitarashi Anko!" The loud-mouthed instructor announced, thrusting her arm out dramatically. She liked to put on a show… That only made Ruriko dig her nails into my arm more. I think she ignored my previous comment…

"For this portion of the exam," Anko yelled, pulling a stack of papers from her coat, "You must all sign these forms or you won't be able to take it. These forms are just in case, you know, you kick the bucket. We don't want anyone screamin' at us because we found you all rotten and torn up."

"Well, that was a friendly description." Akira muttered under his breath, folding his arms over his chest.

"Sounded yummy to me." Ruriko deadpanned, averting her eyes. Akira and I both winced at the same time. Anko started tossing the forms at us. Ruriko, thank the gods, let go of my arm and snatched the form, scanning it over. I just handed my form to Ruriko, who huffed, but took it anyway. I followed her to a comfortable spot to sit down, listening to her read the form out loud.

I didn't ask her to, either. I just told her to sign my name for me, but she insisted on reading it out loud to me. I think she liked reading things out loud… It made me smile as I watched her eyes scanning over the form, her lips moving with the words.

"And so, I, Nero, allow myself to participate in- What the hell are you looking at?" She asked me with a flat expression, her eyes half lidded. I blinked and met her eyes, then grinned.

"Nothing. I just like watching your lips move."

"… YOU PERVERT! Listen to what I'm reading to you! It's extremely important, fool! You can't just sign something without reading it!" Ruriko yelled at me, smacking me in the back of the head. I smirked, despite the dull pain in the back of my head now where I placed my hand.

"Hmph," Akira plopped down beside me, leaning on my shoulder, making me wince, "That lady may be hot, but she's got a nasty temper." I noticed a cut over Akira's nose, which told me Akira tried to something worse than watching her lips move while she read.

"Akira, you don't go up to a woman and try and grope her the first time you meet." I muttered. Akira blinked and looked at me.

"You don't?" He asked, obliviously. I sweat dropped. Ruriko glared at him, slamming the forms down in her lap.

"You men have no respect for women! Unbelievable! I'll have you castrated, you pigs!" She snarled, swiping the forms back up to smack both Akira and I over the head. We both yelped.

"Well, well. Looks like that guy can talk after all." A voice said. Ruriko, Akira, and I all looked up to see Ayaka, Honoka, and Ryuuko coming near us. I looked in the other direction as Akira huffed.

"Course he can. He just chooses not to talk to girls because he has-" I quickly shoved him to the ground, elbowing him in the side of the head, making him yelp. Ayaka smirked, folding her arms over her chest. Honoka sighed, scratching the side of her head as she sweated a bit.

"What did you guys think of the first exam?" She asked, hopeful to change the subject. I frowned and looked at Ruriko, who cocked her head.

"Pretty easy. Akira cheated off my paper… But I was cheating off the guy next to me, even though he failed the last question. Pretty funny, though. I didn't put an answer because I don't care why I deserve to be Chuunin. I just wanna be a Special Jounin so I can do whatever the hell I want, like my brother, Hioshi!" She announced with a proud smirk.

Well, that's a sad dream. Tsukuyomi Hioshi, the last brother I ever met from their family, was a shut-in Jounin. He mostly just collected information and worked on smaller tasks. He was afraid of leaving his home, according to Kazuya, and refused to leave it. He was pretty lazy because of this and rather careless… A lot like Ruriko. The two were practically twins.

"That doesn't sound like much of a goal." Ryuuko finally said honestly, his eyes averted. Ruriko shrugged, leaning back against the tree trunk.

"Doesn't matter. It's not like I wanna be Kazekage or anything. I've already seen what stress they go through and there's no way in hell I'd ever want that to happen to me." She replied, jabbing a thumb at herself.

"Sounds like pure laziness to me." Ayaka retorted.

"Your point?" Ruriko asked with a deadpan expression. Honoka sweat dropped. I smacked my forehead and Akira laughed.

"That's Ruriko for you. She'll only fight if food's at stake." He replied as if he were proud of her. I'd be a lot more proud if she got off her butt and tried to train with us once in a while.

"All right," Anko's voice echoed throughout the clearing, "Hand in your forms and line up behind the red line in front of the tent! Within the tent, there is a scroll that you're being handed. The scroll contains top secret information regarding dangerous criminals. However, if you open the scroll, a Genjutsu trap will be released and it will delay your trip… The point of the exam is that you gather as much information on certain criminals as possible and make it to the center tower within five days. There should be information littered about this forest, but each one is guarded with advanced traps. You may have to fight opponents for the information within their scroll as well…. I think that's it. So grab your scroll and pick a door, maggots, so we can get this show on the road!"

Ruriko signed her form and mine, placing them in the tent with Akira's. She snatched up the scroll, glancing at it sideways as we walked out.

"It's just a simple scroll… Good thing Hioshi's an information hog…" She murmured as we went to find a gate. I frowned, shoving my hands in my pockets.

"What'd you mean?" I asked. Ruriko smirked, tossing the scroll into the air and catching it.

"Duh. Hioshi and I talk a lot back at home. I've already got information on 'certain criminals'. Such as Akatsuki and Orochimaru." I stared at her. I didn't think Ruriko planned anything. Most of the things she does, including her fighting style, isn't planned and just flung out there randomly. I was surprised. Akira seemed pretty shocked too, his periwinkle eyes wide.

"Seriously? Wow, Ruriko… You actually impressed me." He mused. Ruriko rolled her eyes.

"I think when I feel like it… Besides, I have a big interest in criminals. They're so fun to do research on… Maybe that's what I'll do," She said suddenly as we halted in front of a gate, "I'll be a Jounin specializing in criminal organizations. Sounds pretty fun to me."

"If you want to risk those undercover missions." I muttered. I heard that some shinobi were kidnapped or murdered on those missions. Pretty dangerous for someone like Ruriko, but she didn't seem to care and laughed.

"Hell yea! Dressing up is fun too!" She winked. Akira smirked, not seeming the slightest bit worried. I sighed, shaking my head.

"You should dress up as a geisha." A voice stated. I winced and whipped around to glare as Hajin approached, alone. Ruriko glared at him too, clenching the scroll tightly in her fist.

"To hell with you, shrimp. You're nothing but a parasite!" She snapped, but I saw her eyeing Hajin's spidery tattoos on his chest. I knew she hated spiders and bugs equally, even if it was a tattoo. Hajin smirked, folding his arms over his chest.

"Hmph… Let's see you keep that attitude throughout the exams." He replied cockily. What did I tell you? Every team has it's own cocky bastard and Hajin was the only one who knew how to set me off. I wanted to slam my maul right into that tiny skull of his, but I dug my nails into my arms to calm me down.

"Che," Ruriko crinkled her nose in disgust, "You're disgusting. Get out of my sight and get ready because as soon as we get past these gates, I'm going to tear your body apart. No joke… I've taken a bite out of other shinobi before and I can definitely have fun doing it to you." Hajin grinned slowly, his pale red eyes flickering dangerously, sending chills up my spine. He seemed a lot creepier when he did that.

"Of course, doll face. I wouldn't have it any other way. I enjoy your hostility. It entertains me." He replied and took a step forward, his hand reaching out. Immediately I whipped my hand out, grabbing his wrist, Akira's hand joining mine on Hajin's arm. Ruriko blinked, looking surprised at our agility. Hajin frowned, then an angry smile split his face as her tore his arm away from us.

"You can't protect your teammates for long," He drawled, "Half the Genin made it this far… And half of them are going to end up dead… As for you, doll face, you'll end up one of the few who I let live, but I'll keep you wrapped up in my web." Ruriko fumed and stomped her foot.

"You're sick! Shove off before I rip your throat out with my teeth, hear me? I'll fucking slaughter you!" She yelled. Hajin only smirked and flicked his hand at us as a wave before walking off. I frowned, then winced when Ruriko punched me in the arm, doing the same to Akira too.

"Don't defend me," She ordered, thrusting a finger in our faces, "I can take care of him myself! He's just a squirt that I could easily turn into a fried shrimp. Don't step in for me because it's only giving him the impression that I'm weak, got it? Keep defending me and you two will end up without a limb too!" Akira and I shared annoyed looks. Ruriko was way overconfident. Her expression had quickly changed when Hajin went to touch her, like she was freaked out. She could nag at us and tear us apart, but we weren't going to let her fight alone… Although, maybe I should have let her try and defend herself…

No, I'm just stupid.

We all got to our gates as Anko blew her whistle, thrusting her arms out.

"OPEN THOSE GATES!" She yelled and the sentinels by the gates cut the chains and padlocks, letting them fall. Immediately, our group rushed in at the same time as the others. Ruriko was ahead of us, being the self-proclaimed leader. Akira and I at her sides as we bolted through the trees and brush.

"You got the scroll, Ruriko?" Akira asked to be certain, since Ruriko had the tendency to be forgetful. She rolled her eyes.

"Yea… I'm hiding it." She replied. I frowned.

"Where? Don't take offense by it, but you don't wear that much clothing." I replied. Ruriko blushed and scowled.

"Shut the hell up! I do too. I have two- Never mind! All right, we're supposed to be looking for scrolls that contain information and this forest is almost as big as our village… And there's probably no chance of convincing you guys to split up, right?" She asked with a smirk and a shrug.

"NO!" Akira and I barked in unison. Ruriko sighed and looked up through the trees, giving it a disgusted look.

"There's bound to be tons of bugs and spiders… And brats." She added bitterly.

"We're up against tons of violent, Chuunin-rabid Genin and all you can think about are the insects?" Akira demanded, putting his hands on his hips. Ruriko smirked. I sighed and frowned.

"Wait… Ruriko, what sort of information did Hioshi give you on those criminals you mentioned?" I asked. Ruriko beamed and it was a bit odd to see her face light up with excitement.

"Well," She began eagerly, "The Akatsuki is a huge criminal organization set on kidnapping all the Biju in the world! They're being led by a man by the name of Pein, who is also the current leader of the Rain Village! There are rumors that he's actually under the control of a much higher power!"

"Whoa, hold up!" Akira protested. I sweat dropped. Ruriko folded her arms over her chest, pouting a bit stubbornly.

"Yes?" She asked, her voice sharp. Akira averted his eyes with a weak smile, then held up a finger matter-of-factly.

"You said this criminal leader is in charge of the Rain Village, right?"

"Yea?"

"Hajin is from the Rain Village. What if he didn't join the exams so he could become Chuunin?" Akira asked. Ruriko blinked and let her arms drop to her sides as she tilted her head thoughtfully.

"It makes sense," I jumped in, "Why wouldn't a criminal organization send pawns out to gather research on people who oppose them? I'd do it if I were this guy." Ruriko smirked.

"Okay, this'll be fun. We get to take down an S-ranked Criminal… While trying to become Chuunin at the same time!" She barked, glaring at us. Akira shrugged.

"At least we figured something out." He replied. Ruriko frowned, folding her arms over her chest.

"Just how in gods' name do we prove that? In the researching world, proof is extremely important. Right now, we're just coming up with possibilities that Hajin might be a pawn of Akatsuki's." She explained. Akira raised an eyebrow.

"Maybe you should be an information ninja like Hioshi… You're almost sounding like him. All you need to do is lock yourself in your room, wear pajamas all day long, and get that evil glare going. You two could almost be mistaken for each other, if you cut your hair." He added.

"And got rid of your big boobs." I coughed. Ruriko went red and whipped around to glare at me, grabbing the front of my cloak, holding a fist in my face.

"I do not have big boobs, you stinking pervert! If you weren't part of my team, I'd slaughter you and feed you to the spider brat!" She yelled in my face. I smirked. There was no denying that Ruriko was cute when she was mad. She was too busy yelling at me and I was too busy laughing at her to notice that Akira was staring up into the trees overhead.

"Uh, guys…?" He tried.

"Wait until I tell Kazuya about this! Kazuya will get you if I don't!" Ruriko yelled at me.

"Calm down. I coulda kept going on about you~" I cooed.

"Shut up!"

"Guys…?"

"WHAT?" We demanded, glaring at Akira, who sweat dropped. He pointed up just as a kunai shot down from above in front of Akira's feet. Akira yelped and leapt back. Ruriko and I jumped back as well, jerking our heads up as a familiar dark haired Genin came falling from the leaves with his two teammates. Osamu stood up, holding a kunai in his grip and a smirk on his face.

"It was pretty easy finding you guys, screaming and all." He added. Akira glared at Ruriko and I, who both looked in separate directions with a huff.

"To make things easier," Osamu continued, "You guys can just give up your scroll and we'll be on our way… It doesn't look like you're in the mood to fight with us anyway."

"Bullshit," Ruriko yelled, whipping out her kunai, "I'll smash your face in the dirt!" Akira flinched, but reluctantly pulled out his kunai. Osamu frowned a little. He probably assumed Akira and Ruriko were all talk. Sure, they had a loud bark, but they had a good bite to follow through with it. Ruriko jumped ahead, slashing her kunai at Osamu, who whipped around to block it, their kunai clanging and echoing through the trees as they pushed back. Akira went right ahead and attacked Kishi, who easily blocked his attack with her own kunai.

I rolled my eyes. We couldn't even take a second to talk, but that didn't surprise me. I took my chance to make a few hand signs, attacking their last member, Eiji, who was moving his hands faster than I could see them. In a flash, stalagmites shot up from the ground. I winced, not even able to finish my hand signs before I had to jump into the air, pushing off a tree trunk and shooting up higher into the trees. He was faster than me… I definitely wasn't a ninjutsu person.

As soon as I landed on a perch, I managed to make a few hand signs, an explosion of lightening blasting downwards toward the earth. To my relief, Ruriko and Akira had managed to dodge the attack. I was pleased to see that the electricity had bounced around, scorching Osamu and Eiji in the process, Kishi getting lucky enough to jump away in time.

As Eiji moved for another ninjutsu, I had to think fast. I caught up with him just as he released a water jutsu up at me. I winced and finished off a useless fire jutsu that was dosed as I leapt back. Of course, that didn't help and I ended up getting soaking wet, slamming into the tree's trunk.

We were wasting our time doing this. The point was to get the opponent's scroll. Being all the way up here away from them wasn't going to help. I had to get down there and tackle that kid to see if he had the scroll. Then it'd be one down and two to go. I struggled to get up, then quickly ran along the branch before jumping down, grabbing my maul from it's place on my back. Eiji flinched and he leapt back, just as my weapon collided with the ground between a pair of stalagmites. The tall structures crumbled and fell apart around us as the ground seemed to dent inwards. Eiji managed to dodge some falling rubble, his eyes locking on me behind his glasses.

Normally, this would be a good time to make some smartass comment, but that wasn't my style, so I simply swung my maul back up, hooking it onto my back before bolting forward. He blocked my punch to his face easily, knocking my arm away to get me in the gut, but I dodged to the side. I got a glimpse of his kunai pouch, but it didn't seem like the scroll was in there…

Then again, Ruriko said she didn't put hers in her pouch. She put it somewhere safe… The boy wasn't wearing anything heavy that could hide a scroll, but I couldn't make assumptions. If I went to help Akira or Ruriko, he'd be on my tail and ready to put me out of submission. I had to keep fending off Eiji's swift attacks, glancing over at Akira and Ruriko. Akira seemed to be holding his own against Kishi and he had more cuts on his face to join the one Anko gave him…

But I guessed it wasn't because Akira was flirting with her. He knew when to get down to business. Ruriko was doing a lot of yelling, which meant Osamu said something to piss her off. I frowned and did a quick back flip, skidding backwards along the ground. If Ruriko was mad, that meant she was going to either get herself hurt or all of us hurt. I had to hurry and put this kid out or else we're all screwed.

I went to make a hand sign, but Eiji was way ahead of me as if he was reading my mind. A water jutsu slammed right into me, sending me crashing into a stalagmite. My body immediately exploded with pain. I gasped and crumpled to my knees, holding my ribs. I felt something poking my skin and knew right away that I had broken a rib. I jerked my head up as Eiji swung out an array of shuriken, but he seemed more hesitant now. I couldn't duck in time, one of the shuriken pinning my hand to the ground.

A new stinging pain exploded up my arm, giving me a serious headache. Eiji was coming at me, but I picked up one of the fallen shuriken, swinging it at him. It almost hit his feet, but he jumped up and landed right in front of me. I really didn't want to say anything, but I might as well.

"You won't find anything," I told him under my breath, panting harshly past the searing pain, "I don't have the scroll." Eiji's eyes wandered upwards to watch his teammates. I took my chance and tore the shuriken from my hand, jumping up and tackling him to the ground. Eiji gave a slight yelp and pushed up on my chest. I held him pinned down, despite the shocking agony in my bloody hand.

"And who has the scroll on your team?" I asked. Eiji kept his mouth shut, biting into his lip stubbornly, refusing to speak. I smirked.

"Then I'll search you if you won't tell me and when I'm done with you, I'll beat your team." I told him and grabbed the front of his shirt. He winced and swung his hand up, grabbing my bloody one and gripping it tightly. I cried out and tried to wiggle my hand away, but Eiji kept his grip on my hand, his fingers digging into the bloody hole on the top of my hand. I screamed and tried to tear my hand back, but that only made it hurt worse.

"Nero!" I heard Ruriko yell my name and a loud explosion behind me. Through the agony in my hand, worry shot up into my throat as another yell of pain. I started to lean down to bite him on the hand, pulling a Ruriko, but I felt someone's foot collide with my gut, making me wince and fly back into the ground. I slammed up against a stalagmite, gasping in pain. I looked up with a wince to see Kishi pulling Eiji to his feet. I gripped the shuriken in my fist, then swung it forward, but missed Kishi's face by an inch when Eiji's hand shot out to grab it. He threw it back, but I ducked just in time.

In a second, Akira was by my side, pulling me to my feet.

"Get up, Nero! Osamu and Ruriko went up into the trees!" He yelled at me. I nodded a little, grimacing as Akira helped me to my feet. He had a bad cut on his shoulder, which was seeping blood like a leaky faucet, but he didn't show that it hurt. Eiji and Kishi shared a short conversation under their breathes, then shot up into the trees to find Osamu. Akira and I shared looks and shot after. As we neared the higher parts of the forest, we could hear yelling and cursing accompanied with clangs and explosions.

As Akira and I came to a halt by Eiji and Kishi, we were met with a hot blast of flames from a fire jutsu Osamu blasted, scorching the trees and other plants. I grimaced, watching Ruriko do a back flip, landing on a far branch, breathing hard. Her headband was long gone, probably having fallen off down below. Her vest was sliced open in the front, revealing a blood stained jumpsuit, her skort also having been cut up.

Even so, she wore a confident smirk on her face as she took out a few shuriken. Osamu laughed from her perch on a tree branch in a crouched position.

"Didn't I tell you those weren't going to help you?" He yelled at her.

"No, but throwing things at you makes me feel better!" Ruriko barked back and flung them right at him. Osamu ducked them, catching one through the hole in the middle and flinging it back. I winced when I saw Ruriko jump over it. Her hands moved in a blur, almost as fast as Eiji's, creating a lightening jutsu. Blue zigzags of electricity blasted out over the forest, scorching things and even breaking branches to bits. Osamu winced and managed to dodge a few shocks, getting hit on his cheek and hip.

He landed back to his feet on a lower branch as Ruriko leapt off her own. Akira cursed.

"Crap… Nero, did you make sure Eiji didn't have a scroll?" He demanded. I nodded. Akira looked up.

"That means Osamu has it…" He muttered. Kishi perked up, glancing at Eiji, who was holding a cut on his cheek.

"Eiji, that guy didn't have the scroll?" She demanded. Eiji shook his head. Kishi whipped around and cupped her hands around her mouth.

"OSAMU! That girl has the-" Akira came up behind her, tackling her to the branch. Kishi yelped, wincing. Eiji made a grab at her, but I came up behind him, grabbing him around the waist and covering his mouth with one hand in case he decided to speak.

"Ugh!" Kishi squirmed and writhed to escape Akira's grip on her arms that were twisted behind her back.

"No way you're opening that pretty little mouth of yours." Akira smirked, digging his nails into her wrists. I held onto Eiji despite his wiggling around and glanced up as Ruriko tackled Osamu to a tree branch. I saw Osamu's eyes shoot up to his teammates after hearing the beginning of Kishi's yell. His eyes widened. Ruriko, however, slammed him back into the tree branch.

"You're done for…!" I heard her yell and she made a grab at his throat, but Osamu swung his elbow up into Ruriko's gut, making her wince. He grabbed her hand and whipped her around. Ruriko lost her balance and yelped, slipping forward off the branch. Instinct kicked in and I released Eiji, bolting for Ruriko.

"Osamu, she has the scroll!" Eiji managed to get out, his voice sounding kind of shaky. Osamu winced and whirled around to go after Ruriko. I knew it wasn't good to leave Akira alone with Eiji and Kishi, but I had to get to Ruriko before Osamu did. I pushed off the underside of the tree branch I was on, catching Ruriko around the waist and jerking her out of Osamu's way just in time before he could grab her kunai pouch. I slammed into a tree branch, keeping Ruriko close to me as we hit it. I heard her gasp against my chest as we came to a stop after hitting the tree trunk.

I struggled to push myself up, panting in pain. Ruriko was underneath me, groaning a little and spitting up a glob of blood. I looked down at her, holding the place where my rib was now sticking out of my skin. Ruriko grimaced and looked like she was gonna scream at me, but stopped when she saw the blood bubbling out of the place where my rib was coming out. She stared.

"Nero…"

"Dummy," I muttered, "They know you have the scroll now. Osamu's probably on his way to get it thanks to Eiji. Give me the scroll. I'll take off somewhere and hide. You and Akira have to try and fend them off, got it?" Ruriko blinked and nodded, then glared.

"Don't look."

"What'd you mean?"

"… Just don't." She muttered. I rolled my eyes and pretended to close my eyes, peeking past them. No wonder… She hit the scroll in her bra. She slammed it into my face, making me smirk at her. I took the scroll and shoved it in an inside pocket of my cloak, then rose to my feet, jerking Ruriko up with me. She stumbled slightly. We stared at each other for a moment before we heard crashing and looked up. Ruriko smirked and looked back at me.

"Now go, Nero! You're wounded and can't fight!" She yelled dramatically and shoved me. I laughed a little and before she could think, I grabbed her by her vest and kissed her quickly on the forehead before shooting off into the trees. I got the pleasure of seeing her turn pink before screaming curses after me. I shot through the trees as fast as I could in my injured state, hearing more explosions behind me. I hoped Osamu showed up after I disappeared because there was no way I could defend myself again Eiji or Kishi by now.

I also hoped I wouldn't run into any other teams on my way through the trees. I hopped from tree branch to tree branch, each landing sending pain through my body. I could feel the rib sticking out of my skin, pushing back and forth, practically sawing. I tried to push it back, but that only made the pain worse.

I finally had to take a break, landing on an array of tree branches that were all looped together with vines and leaves. It made a nice resting place. I collapsed to my knees, breathing hard as I watched blood trickle from my mouth and to the wood and leaves. I reached into my pocket and took out the scroll, frowning at it.

Anko said not to open it… A genjutsu trap was going to smack me in the face, but it had more information on the criminals… Wouldn't that tempt us? Of course… I bet half the teams out there already opened it… I tucked the scroll away and struggled to get to my feet, only to fall back down.

Great. Now I was stuck… I glanced around in hopes of finding a hiding place. That's when I heard it. The high-pitched maniacal laughter. My body stiffened and I felt all the color drain from my face before I jerked my head up, whipping around to find the source. Panic was surging through me uncontrollably and I tried to get to my feet again, but failed. My legs were shaking and my eyes were darting around. The laugher echoed off the trees, just like it did in my nightmare. I grasped at my chest and yelped in pain when my hand hit my broken rib. I whipped around frantically, my breathing coming out in short gasps.

I dropped my hands, squeezing my eyes shut and trying to calm down, but I was slowly failing. My fears were realized when I felt someone grab me from behind around my waist. I screamed and my paranoia let loose. Adrenaline numbed the pain in my body and I tore away from the grip, scrambling away and getting to my feet. I whipped around to see nothing there. I looked around quickly, the laughter still ringing in my ears.

My head started to throb in pain, spiking throughout my entire body, exploding microscopically. I clasped my hands over my ears, squeezing my eyes shut and screaming at the top of my lungs.
