Thank you for all the reviews! I am sorry that this is a super late update!

"I, Ino Yamanaka forfeit this match." Ino said raising her hand and smiling at Sakura.

"Very well, the winner is Sakura Haruno!' Genma announced, the whole audience roared with cheers and Tsunade, the brand new Hokage, smiled at her apprentice.

As the day continued many more of the genins battled and winners were quickly announced.

"In two days, these people will be fighting against each other randomly: Sakura Haruno, Neji Hyuuga, Shikamaru Nara, Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki, Tenten, Hinata Hyuuga and Rock Lee! Now a few words from the Hokage." Genma announced. Tsunade got up from her chair and smiled.

"The skills that everyone performed today was fantastic! I've never seen so much potential in all my life. Now in two days we will resume the chunnin exams; get some rest you all deserved and enjoy the festival. I hope to see you there!" the blond, busty woman said.

"I'm excited! Dattebayo!" Naruto cheered pumping his hands up in the air as he walked out the stadium with his team.

"Tch dobe," Sasuke muttered under his breath.

"What did you say TEME!" Naruto yelled.

"Naruto-kun, please don't yell." Hinata said putting a hand on her crush's back.

"Sorry Hina-chan, do you want to go to the winter festival with me tonight?" the cerulean eyed boy asked smiling widely at the blushing Hyuuga. Suddenly, Naruto felt a dark aura behind him.

"NEJI HYUUGA! Leave them alone! Naruto won't let anything happen to her." Sakura preached putting her hands on her hips to show her boyfriend that she was serious.

"Hn, fine but hurt her Naruto and I will personally kill you." The older Hyuuga threatened.

"The prodigy is whipped! That's not something you see everyday!" Anko yelled with laughter as she approached the group with Tsunade, Shizune, Jiraiya and basically all the senseis, including Genma and Ibiki behind her.

Sasuke smirked, "Sakura did train him pretty well." This earned another round of laughter among the senseis and the rookie nine.

"Watch it Uchiha, I'm sure Tenten has some kind of leash for you." Neji said back.

"She can't control me, I control her." Sasuke countered back. Again, a dark aura surrounded the area.

"SASUKE UCHIHA! What did you say?" Tenten screeched gripping a kunai tightly in her hand.

"I love you darling," Sasuke mumbled earning another laugh from everyone. (A.N. Sasuke and Tenten are now together. Sorry I know it's a little occ but please continue reading)

"As much as I want to listen to all of you rant and prove yourselves that we all need to get ready for the festival, we only have five hours! We girls need to go shopping and get ready! So Hokage-sama, Shizune-san, Anko-san, Kurenai-sensei, Hinata-chan, Sakura-chan, and Tenten-chan we have to go! Shika-kun, you take Kakashi-sensei, Asuma-sensei, Neji, Sasuke, Naruto and Jiraiya-sama with you and get ready! Meet us the Hyuuga compound around eight. Dress nice!" Ino said dragging the poor ladies into a massive shopping spree.

"What about Kiba, Shino, Lee and Choji?" Shikamaru asked lazily.

"We have dates," the four chorused smiling widely.

"Okay well see you tonight!" Ino said leading the way to the shops (I will be making the dresses more modern and the guys' outfits more modern too!)

Well there you have it! Chapter 19 will be just a chapter of the festival

Please review and NO flames! Sorry again that it is short and that it takes a long time for me to update.
