Hello Guys! Here is the re-write chapter number 12! Enjoy reading.

Chapter 12 Exciting Battles!

Some way Sasuke is acting strange, but he tried to fight back. then he had that guy in a hold. But that guy grabbed the collar of Sasuke and some chakra came free. Then Sasuke couldn't move and the other guy slammed Sasuke with his arm and came free of Sasuke. But Sasuke couldn't move. I looked at Michi and saw that she was worried again. Has she feelings for him? Or is she just worried about her team mate? Then that guy grabbed the head of Sasuke with chakra in his head. I think that, that chakra absorbed chakra from someone else. That a battle could turned out like this… I hope that my opponent is not that strong.

The fight was very exciting, but I was not sure who would win. Although is Sasuke acting strange I think that he would win. I don't like that other guy he is creepy. I saw that Sasuke's chakra is going to drain from his body. I looked again at Michi and then back at Sasuke. It was terrible to see that Sasuke couldn't do anything, but then he kicked that guy away. I was relieved, but I didn't know why. Then that guy came back with again chakra on his hand and tried to grab Sasuke again, but luckily Sasuke dodge it every time. Then that Blonde boy is screaming.

" Sasuke! You call yourself Uchiha Sasuke with that?! Stop acting like an idiot! Get serious!" Man that guy can scream loud, but he is doing it for his friend. I got a smile on my face. I wish I had a team like that. I saw that Michi was smiling at me and I smiled back to her and we watch further the fight.

That guy was running again at Sasuke with his hand and tried to grab him again and Sasuke is dodging it again. Then he disappeared.

" What he disappeared?!" I looked around but couldn't see him. Also Temari and Kankuro were looking for him. I looked at Gaara, but he didn't do anything. Then he appeared below his opponent and kicked him in his stomach in the air. I saw that many people were amazed by that. But, wait there is something wrong with Sasuke! But he has cool moves! It took awhile but then Sasuke began with his moves. Then Sasuke slammed and kicked him to the ground. Both of them laid on the ground, but Sasuke got up.

" I will stop this match now. The first match winner is Uchiha Sasuke. This means he passes the preliminary round" Yeah, Sasuke has won! I looked over at the team of him and they were all happy about it. This fight has fired me up! I can't wait to fight with someone! I had trained a lot so I'm not afraid that I will lose! Sasuke is all worn out and his sensei stands behind him to support him. I'm curious who is next. Then Kankuro and I sensed that Gaara want to fight. I hope he don't kill somebody. Then Sasuke left the room with his sensei.

Then we all looked at the big screen waiting for the next names to be announced. And the names were Zaku Abumi and Aburame Shino. I'm curious what kind of fight this would be.

" Fighters, step up. We will now begin the second match." That guy has his arms in bandages, how is he going to fight like that? Would he be okay? Then they may begin. I was sitting on the railing and watched curious at the match. Temari was standing next to me and we chat a bit and were also watching the match. That guy who had his both arms in bandages released one arm and ran up to that other guy with glasses. He tried to hit him but the other one blocked it. Then some air came free out of his hand and the other one felt some meters away.

" Wow!" I looked amazed and watched further. I sensed that Gaara was looking at me sometimes, but I didn't want to put energy at that. I didn't look at him and I know that it will make him angry but I didn't care. I watched further and saw that, that guy stands up again. But there was a creepy sound in the whole room, everyone was curious what that sound can be. I had a suspicion that it came from that one boy, who was swept away. OMG! There are bugs all over him! I covered my mouth with disgust. I hate bugs! Then a whole swarm of bugs were behind that guy with his arms in bandages. Like the whole floor was covered with bugs! I know that there are no bugs in Suna, but I saw them in books and I hate them!

It was a moment of silent but then the guy with bandages began to move and tried to attack the bugs and that guy. I suppose that his both arms were broken, but that he can use them so fast. But something went wrong and chakra came out of his arms if it is going to explode. Ieee! There are coming bugs out of his hands! . Then the guy with the bugs give the other one the last hit and felt on the ground.

" It seems that this match is over. Winner, Aburame Shino."

" Wow, what a fight. I'm glad that I don't have to fight those two." Temari laughed.

" I think you will win Asuka, don't worry. You are strong." I gave her a smile and we watched further.

" I would like to move on to the next match, now" Said Hayate.

" I hope that I would fight soon!" I watch with full energy to the board, but unfortunately it was Tsurugi Misumi and Kankuro.

" Good luck Kankuro-san!" I lift my thumb and gave him a bright smile. " Let's see how strong you are!"

" Thanks Asuka!" Kankuro walked downstairs to the battleground and was standing in the middle with his opponent. Kankuro released his puppet from his back and let it stand next to him.

" Then, let the third match begin." But after he had released his puppet from his back the other guy tried to hit Kankuro but he blocked it but the other guy wrapped his whole body over Kankuro.

" What?! How is that possible!" The other guy hold his neck, with one move he could break Kankuro's neck. " Kankuro-san!" I yelled and watched carefully and looked worried at Temari.

" I can take my joints off their hinges and use my chakra to control my loosened body." Said that other guy.

" What he could do this with his chakra, but that is impossible!" Temari looked also worried, I hope that Kankuro will win.

" that's why I can strangle you until your bones break. Unless you give up, I will continue strangling you. I don't know what kind of tool you use… But there's no point to it if I immobilize your body like this. I can break you neck, as well. Hurry up and give up." Kankuro… I didn't dare to watch, but I was also curious what will happen so I looked a bit.

"No."

" Do you want to die?" He began to strangle Kankuro further. Please Kankuro don't die!

" Idiot. You're the one who's going to die." Then he broke his neck. I looked stunned… I saw his head hanging. Oh no Kankuro!

" Kankuro-san!" I yelled and had tears in my eyes. This can't be…

" How stupid." I looked over at Gaara. I know that he don't see him as his older brother… But still!

" Damn it, you idiot. I got carried away and broke it." Huh?! His face is crumbling. It is his puppet! I wiped of my tears and was happy that he was still alive.

" what?!"

" Now, it's my turn." His puppet came out of the fake Kankuro and wrapped his arms around his opponent. And began to strangle him.

" A Marionette!" Then Kankuro came out that thing what he had carried on his back. Then Kankuro let the bones of his opponent break.

" You can become softer if I break your bones." Kankuro laughed and I was happy.

" Since his opponent is unable to fight, the winner is Kankuro."

" Woehoe Kankuro! You did it!" I jumped several times and saw that Michi must laugh. Kankuro came back upstairs and I hugged him. " you did it Kankuro!" He hugged me back and smiled. " I'm not going to lose." We both noticed that Gaara was looking deathly at us and we separated from each other, I walked back to Temari and Kankuro was standing between Temari and Gaara.

Then the fourth match began and that was between Yamanaka Ino and Haruno Sakura. A girls fight! I'm fired up! I hope that I also would fight against a girl!

Sakura and Ino stands on the battlefield, I could see that there was a tension between them. They ran up to each other and gave each other some kicks and hits. Sakura threw some kunai's and Ino blocked them with her kunai's. They used taijutsu at each other. You couldn't see who is actually winning. Then Ino punched Sakura in the stomach and wanted to hit her in the face but instead she gave her a soft slap in her face. They both looked stunned.

" Nani? What kind of fight is this?" I looked a bit irritated, but was still curious how it will end. '

Then they put their headband on their forehead and began to fight each other again. It is kind of ironic to see those two fighting each other. I had heard from Michi that those two fight every time over Sasuke. So let's see who would win in this match…

Sakura used clone jutsu then the three Sakura's fight Ino and hit her to the ground. They both looked fired up with this fight. I leaned on the railing and watch with amusing to those girls. They ran up to each other again and used their shurikun.

Many minutes has passed by and they were still fighting. Man how long would this fight take? They slapped each other in the face and felt both on the ground. And they are arguing again about stupid stuff, but then Ino grabbed a kunai and grabbed her ponytail and cut it with her kunai. I was stunned by that, why would she do that?! I hold my own hair what was long too. I would never cut off my hair. and threw her cut off hair to Sakura and her hair spread over the floor. That girls is insane!

Then Ino make some hand signs and was going to use ninjutsu, what kind of jutsu has she? Her last name was Yamanaka I had heard some of that clan. They have jutsu's what can control your mind, but it is dangerous to use it in here. If Sakura dodge it, Ino would kill herself. It is not actually a jutsu to use in combat. Then Sakura runs around Ino, and Ino felt on her knees and Sakura was still standing. It looks like that Ino had missed, but then Ino was awake and had made of her hair a rope what was around the legs of Sakura. Now she is doing the Mind Transfer Jutsu. After she had said that, Sakura began to acting strange.

When Sakura or better to say Ino let to Sakura say that she want to give up, that blonde boy began to scream. Then Sakura screamed that she would never give up. They both panted and were sitting on their knees. They both stand up and looked at each other and they ran up to each other again with full speed and hit each other, their headbands came from their head and they both laid on the ground defeated. It's a draw… I had never imagined that it would turned out like this.

" Both are unable to fight. Due to a double KO, no one passes the 4th preliminary match." Their sensei's came down and brought them back to their teams. Okay, let's see who is next. Then the fifth match began. Temari VS Tenten.

" Good luck Temari." I gave her a bright smile and she gave one back. I was excited, I always wanted to see how Temari fight. Well I have trained with her but that was different, because she was easy on me. Now I want to see how she fight in a real battle.
