Naruko-

It was the Chunnin Exams. The Hokage insisted I take part as the third member in team 7. Sasuke's team, it was a two man team, him and some pink haired girl. So he said I could join. Our captain is Kakashi, I won't call him sensei, what has he taught me? We entered a giant room, it was a written test we're doing. I sat net to some black haired boy (A/N: I'll make Hinata a boy in this, meet... uh, Hinoto!) They told us the directions. If we were caught cheating, we would, well, our whole team, would be disqualified. I was all good with getting kicked out, but I guess this Chunnin thing is important to Sasuke. The test started. It was obviously to test out information gathering skills. And... I had none. So I was screwed. I sighed at the test. I didn't know any of this...

The test was almost over. If I didn't finish Sasuke was sure to fail along with me. I sighed, the the boy next to me nudged me.

"I-i can't help but notice..." He started.

"That I haven't put a single answer?" I grumbled. He nodded.

"You c-can copy o-off me, if you want." He whispered again. I smiled a bit, he seemed kind. I nodded in thanks when he 'accidentally' slipped his test closer to me. I was able to looked form the corner of my eye, but the test ended before I finished a single answer.

The man running the exam said we had one final question, if we raised our hand we could leave. If I got it wrong WE ALL failed. Great. What am I supposed to do.

Sasuke-

It was the end of the test. I was a bit worried about Naruko, she probably wasn't taught this stuff when she was in Akutsuki. Hinoto Hyuuga was trying to help her, at least that's how it appeared. I tapped my foot nervously when the test ended. It was the final question. Lots of people raised their hands and left the room, failing with their teams. I watched Naruko, she seemed conflicted about something, probably deciding what to do. I wouldn't blame her if she raised her hand, I'm sure Sakura wouldn't either. But still...

I watched as Naruko hesitantly put up her hand, then, I guess, by a change of thought, slammed it down, snapping the table in half. Everyone's eyes were on her now, even the Jonin that were supervising the test were in shock.

"I don't particularly care about this test, in fact, I could care less about the Chunnin here. Look, I'm not from here, so this written test was hard as hell. And I'll be damned if I fail now. So I'll pass, if I don't, someone in this room can be this broken table's twin." My eyes went wide. She had said that with such confidence and yet it was filled with so much truth.

Umino sent Naruko a smile.

"THAT'S a good attitude!" He pointed at Naruko, who was resting her feet on the shambles of the table. "It's not my problem but I won't give up! What's your name kid?" He asked.

"Naruko." She said.

"Naruko, you have spirit. I like you, so. All those who've stayed pass!" He exclaimed.

Sakura-

This Naruko girl was on our team now, I didn't know much about her. She has a bad attitude. And, she's always around Sasuke! And even worse, Sasuke doesn't mind! I mean, he's always so emotionless and shoos the other girls away, yet, when Naruko grabs his hand or talk to him, he's suddenly a different person. It wasn't fair! And now, she's made such a scene, even broken a table! I bet she doesn't even know anything that was on the test. Who let her in the exams?

On the other hand, she was pretty cool I guess. She didn't take crap from anyone, and was her own person. She was pretty too. Long blond hair, big blue eyes, and those scars on her cheeks made her look even cuter. Ino thinks she's weird. Hinoto, Sasuke, and some of our other friends don't seem to mind her though, she hasn't caused any trouble, and she doesn't seen bad.

I though a bit more, before our next exam adviser came crashing through the wall. It was Kurenai.

Naruko-

We had moved outside, to a fence that was littered with danger signs. The lady was handing out scrolls and telling us something I didn't feel like hearing. I let a yawn escape my mouth. Then, a kunai flew towards me. I moved to the side and caught it. The lady was behind me, I whipped around by instinct, holding the kunai to her neck. She smiled.

"You got spunk kid." She grinned. I gave her back her weapon. "Am I boring you?" She asked. I sighed.

"No, I'm just waiting for the next part of the test to start." I shrugged. The lady chuckled, then went back to explaining. I heard some murmurs and felt some stares from the crowd. I brushed them off.

I couldn't find Sasuke when I got bored of standing alone. But I did find someone I had seen before the whole exam thing started. His name was Kabuto, he had gray hair and glasses.

"I don't have your card, Naru-chan." He smiled warmly at me. "I know nothing about you." He said. I shrugged.

"I'm not from Konoha, well, I am, but you probably won't find any info on me." I said. He smirked.

"You are very intriguing." He pushed up his glasses.

"Naruko!" I looked over and Sasuke was waving me over. I ran over to him, ignoring whatever Kabuto was trying to say.

It was a long walk. We stood around when we were well into the forest. Trying to make a plan. We came up with a code word, or a pass word, but I didn't care to listen to that. I heard a noise. I wandered off to where it came from.

"Hello?" I muttered. Some rain ninja jumped out at me. Suddenly, rope was being spun around me, I jumped. "Who the hell are you?" I asked. The people didn't answer me. I turned and ran back to where Sasuke and Sakura were. I jumped out the bushes.

"Whats the password?" Sakura asked.

"I DON'T GIVE A DAMN!" I shouted. Sasuke whipped out a kunai.

"At least we know she's real." He said, glaring at the ninja behind me.

Sasuke-

Naruko came bursting out the bushes, three ninja on her tail.

It was a big fight, Naruko was knocked to the side after a while, a giant snake was attacking us now. Naruko came back. She charged the snake and the person controlling it. It was a man who had apparently killed a shinobi and taken his body. Naruko was fighting with her nine tails chakra. The man stared at her with interest. More snakes came out. Naruko was begin held her hands and feet.

"Let go!" She pulled on the snakes but it was no use. I'm ashamed to say I was to petrified to protect her.

The man stared at her and smiled.

"Such immense power..." He muttered, moving her face from side to side.

"Don't touch me!" Naruko snapped, trying to bite his hand.

"And so graceful at the same time." He said, ignoring her. He leaned in and bit down on her neck. Naruko screamed and struggled. He pulled away, a small mark formed on the side of her neck. The nine tails chakra shot out to defend its vessel, when the man, Orochimaru, made a hand sign and twisted it on her stomach. Naruko screamed and fainted, Orochimaru threw her to the side.

I shot a kunai and Naruko was hanging from a tree. Sakura was behind me, And I started the fight. I was bit on the neck too. I felt power surge through me, I started attacking, braking limbs, until Sakura stopped me, I forced the power down and fainted.

Sakura-

I got Naruko down from the tree. I used some medical skills I had learned to try and wake them up. The ninja we were fighting had fled. I was alone.

More ninja attacked. I fought as best as I could, I even had to cut off most of my hair. I was gonna lose, I was sure I was, until, Lee jumped in to protect us.

"I won't let you harm these helpless lady's!" Lee yelled. Neji and Tenten came next.

"Naruko? Are you okay?" Neji was at her side. Tenten was fighting along side Lee. Then came Ino's team. They fought as well.

The battle was won, we all went our separate ways. So I waited for them to wake up. And Sasuke did. Naruko followed, the usual annoyed look on her face. Sasuke sighed.

"We should get going." He said standing. Naruko stood too.

"Thanks pinky." She said to me.

"No problem." I said, ignoring the nick name.
