the exams continues with epic battles!
naruto: ready...start! (at that instant both girls jump back each pulling out weapons. hanako has her two short swords and sakurako has a long staff) hanako: how long can you last? sakurako: right back atcha. (hanako runs straight at her swords at ready while sakurako stands ready. hanako begings swing her swords is complex two part combos. sakurako is skillfully blocking each hit and launching her attacks with no succsefull hits on either side) hanako: good as always sakurako. sakurako: youve improved from last time. but its not enough to beat me! (sakurako manages to sweep hanako with her staff and lands a direct hit on hanakos stomach with her staff) sakurako: geuss i win. ( at that moment hanako turns into a piece of floor tile) sakurako: the substitution jutsu! where are you!? hanako: behind you (lands a kick to sakurakos back folowed by a 5 punch combo and finishes it with a swift sword swipe to sakurakos shoulder) sakurako: gaaahhh! hanako: not to shabby huh? sakurako: (holding her shoulder wound) youve improved alot...hanako. hanako: remember im not the same little girl from so long ago. ( hanako begins haveing a flash back. we come to a feild with two young girls sitting in the grass. one girl has blond hair with a green top. hanako when she was 5. the other girl has orange hair with a green kimono. sakurako at 5) hanako: so many flowers out here. there all so pretty. sakurako: i know! i could sleep out here.
(a young boy shows up who looks alittle older than the girls) boy: couple of girly girls. what so "pretty" about flowers. hanako: go away tazu. were playing! tazu: i dont care shrimp! sakurako: back off. tazu: make me! (sakurako punches the boy in the face then kicks him while hes down) tazu: ow. ow! i give i give! (runs off) hanako: that was awesome! i wish i could fight like that...sakurako: dont worry. some people just cant fight. hanako: sakurako! (both laugh. back to hanako vs sakurako) sakurako: you couldent fight then. how did you become so strong? hanako: i trained...to prove you wrong. sakurako: prove me wrong? hanako: thats right. i know you meant what you said. we may have laughed but i knew. i made a goal and began sword training. i WILL be the best swords woman ever. then youll see...just how powerfull i am. let me show you my progress. sakurako: (stands up) you are still weaker than me. just like before. if you really think you can win, then lets go. hanako: you asked for it (weaves several handsighns) wind style: crushing gale! (a mass wind blasts at sakurako but she manages to jump above it) sakurako: water style: ripping torent! ( a swift current of water shoots from the ground)
hanako: not happening! wind style: freazing wind! ( a chilling wind shoots out freezing the water in its tracks)sakurako: not enough to beat me! water style: pressure water pistol! hanako: no way! ( dodges a thin line of super pressurized water that shoots through the floor) hanako: that was close. wind style: wind sythe justsu(a gust of wind shoots shredding anything in its path. sakurako manages to avoid it and runs tward hanako and to hanakos suprise draws a sword from her staff) sakurako: lets see whos the better swords woman! (the two clash swords violently blocking eachothers blades) hanako: ive traind to hard to be out done by you! (sweeps her sword away then points one of her blades at her throat) hanako: give up. sakurako: *smiles* hanako: whats so funny? (suddently a voice from behind her whispers "goodbye". at that moment a thin stream of pressurized water shoots through hanakos chest and the sakurako in front of her turns to a piece of floor tile) hanako: gaahh! ikiru: HANAKO! sakurako: (hanako is on the floor holding her wound in pain) i told you. i am stronger than you. just like then, just like now. and it will always be that way. like i told you. some poeple just cant fight. hanako: and some poeple...are just stupid. wind style: TORNADO RAMPAGE! (a massive amount of wind kicks up and begins spining at nearly 500 miles an hour. the water from sakurakos jutsus are feeding into storm clouds and creates a smaller but far more deadly tornado in the room. sakurako is caught in it is being thrown around like a ragdoll) sakurako: aaahhhhh! hanako: (stands up) hmph. ( hanako turns around and syama falls to the ground behind her after the mini storm clears) sakurako: h...how? hanako: when i was holding my wound i used medical ninjutsu. i acted to lure you into a false sense of security and struck with my most powerfull attack at your most vunrable moment. remember, streingth means nothing without strategy. that is your fatal flaw.
sakurako: heh heh. you got me...(passes out) naruto: the winner is, hanako dengen! (jumps back up to her team) ikiru: way to go hanako! hanako: thanks. karoshi: not bad. no wonder your on this team. ikiru: dunno where wede be withoutcha. hanako: *blushes* naruto: now we will pick the next two contestants. ( the screen begins cycling through multiple names rapidly and stops on the next two fighters) naruto: round two will be kazuma ikotsu (one of the sound boys) and karumaru nodachi! karoshi: kick that sound brats ass for me karumaru. karumaru: you got it dude.( jumps down to the arena) naruto: come. (both boys come to the center) naruto: ready...start! (instead of jumping back, karumaru jumps forward with his ninja fists blades already out and attacks franticly. kazumas claws can barley keep up defense) karumaru: please, is that all you got!? kazuma: hardly! ( manages to jump back and swings his claws through the air) karumaru: what? that was pointle-( at that moment 3 claw marks corrisponding with kazumas claws apears on his chest) karumaru: (holds injuries) (on the walkway above ichimaru is with karoshi) karoshi: why is he just standing there? ichimaru: this is classic karumaru. when he is injured to a certain degree like with those claw marks he becomes...something else.
karoshi: what do you mean? ichimaru: when he knows the fight has taken a deadly turn his true instincs that normaly lie dormant apear. he bomes animalistic. and his openent can no longer run away. get ready karoshi. your about to see first hand why karumaru is called the demon of the cloud. (karumaru seems to be smiling like kenpachi when he gets crazy and his chakra level seems to increase) kazuma: what is with this guy!? karumaru: let me show you...(he suddently apears behind him and swings his ninja fist blade at him. kazuma barley manages to avoid being slashed. with no evasion time kazuma is nailed by his 2nd ninja fist blade landing a clean cut on kazumas left side) kazuma: gaahhh! kazuma: (thinking: damn it! why hasent my genjustu claws taken effect yet!? could it be that hes attack based on instict alone!? is his thought prosses turned off?) (meanwhile with karoshi and ichimaru) karoshi: tell me more about this thing hes doing. ichimaru: when karumaru goes into battle mode he looses all concious thought and uses instinc alone. as of now hes fighting like a wild animal with a bloodlust. because of his animalistic behavior in this form he was dubbed the demon of the cloud by lord raikage. he is the clouds greatest wepon since 8 tails. karoshi: weapon?
ichimaru: i know what your thinking. but thats not the case. karumaru when hes normal is a very kind although flamboyant person. most poeple like him. because this form is under his comtrol he can turn on and off it. he is not feard by anyone but our enimies. karoshi: truly impressive. glad hes on my side. ichimaru: heh heh. indeed. (meanwhile kazuma struggles to fight off the pure power of karumarus animal style of fightning) kazuma: *huff huff* your good. i havent been pushed this far in a while. (pulls out a 2nd pair of claws) kazuma: come! (with no hesitation [or thought for that matter] he runs straight at him) kazuma: you dont think at all do you? (using both claws he creates a massive sound wave) karumaru: (seems to flinch at the sound and holds his ears) kazuma: your mine! (stabs karumaru with his right hand claws) karumaru: *cough* ichimaru: heh heh heh. karoshi: whats so funny? ichimaru: he belives hes won. just watch. kazuma: if you give in now ill spare yo-( just then kazuma freezes with fear as he can see the face of a demon in place of karumaru) kazuma: what...in hell? ( karumaru uses his ninja fist blade to slash kazuma across the chest kocking him out in one shot) karumaru: youve underestimated me. big mistake. karoshi: what just happened? he froze. ichimaru: when karumaru takes on that form the chakra released from him creates illusions to all who get close enough. kazuma was trapped in a genjutsu.
karoshi: wouldent karumaru be caught to? ichimaru: remember that his thought prossess is off during this. he dosent think enough to be caught in any genjustu no matter how powerfull. karoshi: heh. thats a guy i would love to fight. naruto: the winner is karumaru! (jumps back up) karoshi: nicly done karumaru. karumaru: im just that good! syama: do you ever shut up? ichimaru: surly by now you know the answer to that. karoshi: in other words no? ichimaru and syama: yup. naruto: time for the next match. (the screen lands on two more names) naruto: the next battle will be agea aburame (a boy in the blue coat mentioned in chapter 2) vs asaga kaguya! (another boy mentioned in chpt. 2) naruto: come to the center. ready...start! (almost imedietly agea puts his arms out and insects swarm all around him) asaga: what is that? agea: my clans secret jutsu. different aburames can controll different insects. i use a rather strange type. all of my insects are scarab beatles. karoshi: (flinches with fear) ikiru: what is it karoshi? karoshi: scarab beatles are extinct. man kind drove them extinct. ikiru: so whats so scary? karoshi: idiot! dont you know anything about anything? scarab beatles were driven to exstiction for there taste. there carniverous! they can reduce a human to a skeliton in seconds!
