Story time kids; I hope you all enjoy this new Chapter and continue supporting my story. Also, just for y'all's information I'm thinking of another story for when I finish my Loyalty and Lies story. This one's going to be Sasuke centric and I'm going to try my best to make Sasuke less of an Emo bastard. Ok now back to a story where Sasuke is a bastard.

Set in Stone: Chapter 10

Naruto, Sarada, Hinata, Moro, Tsubaki, Yakumo and Ichigo were standing outside the door to the first portion of the exam with Yugao and Anko who was eating a stick of Dango.

"You all know the plan" Yugao said as the 7 genin nodded "I will like to say that working with you all has been the best thing I've ever done in my ninja career; I expect you all to succeed like I know you can" Yugao said with a smile on her face. Anko finishing her snack then spoke up.

"Go in there and kick some ass runts" she said with a giant grin before walking up to Naruto and spoke to him "when you see Orochimaru kick his ass and tell him I'm coming for him" Anko said to which Naruto nodded.

"Copy that Anko-sensei" Naruto chirped; Anko then leaned down and kissed his cheek which made the boy blush, sputter and get a goofy look on his face. Anko laughed at his response and vanished in a swirl of leaves; if she stayed she would have seen the looks of annoyance on both Sarada and Moro's faces, the light giggling coming from Hinata who found Naruto's reaction a little funny and Tsubaki who was now writing down in her note book.

"Older girl, younger guy" Tsubaki said with a perverted grin on her face "man I can totally work that into my book" she said. Yugao pinched the bridge of her nose in annoyance.

'I give a speech from the heart and Anko just has to ruin the moment' Yugao thought; "just get inside" Yugao said as she vanished in a swirl of leaves.

"Ok girls" Naruto said before Ichigo then coughed "and Ichigo" Naruto said rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment "lets go" he said as he turned around and kicked the door open.

Everyone in the room looked at him in surprise as they were not expecting that to happen; "my name is Naruto Uzumaki, and I'm here with my team to beat all you assholes" Naruto said loudly. Sarada then came up behind Naruto and bonked him in the head.

"Why did you just announce that you idiot" Sarada said with a angry look and flames appearing behind her "do you want everyone here to target us" she asked and Naruto looked at her confused.

"Uhh… yeah that was the plan" Naruto said; Sarada then blushed and remembered something.

*Flashback* 2 hours ago

"Remember we need Kabuto to come to us" Sarada said to the group "so we need to look like a bunch of rookies and draw him to us" she said. Naruto nodded with a grin on his face.

'I can totally draw attention; it's like my super power' Naruto thought.

*Flashback end*

"Amazing Naruto; only been in the room for 20 seconds and you are already causing problems" Shikamaru said walking up to Naruto who was getting up off the floor "I swear you blondes are so-" Shikamaru was pushed out of the way by Ino who walked over to Ichigo. Ino wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips.

"Hey babe about time you showed up" Ino said as she smiled at seeing her boyfriend "where were you" she asked and Ichigo eye smiled.

"Sorry my sweet; I sadly got lost on the road of life" Ichigo said to which Ino rolled her eyes.

"Goddamn we got another guy who talks like Kakashi" Kiba said walking up with his team to the group like with a arrogant look on his face "well he doesn't look like anything special I bet I could-" Kiba began until Ino in a burst of speed appeared behind him with a dark look on her face.

"Insult my love again and I'll neuter you dog boy" Ino threatened; Kiba swallowing hard only nodded. Ino then sheathed her sword and looked over to Sakura "hey there forehead; hope you are ready to get your ass kicked by me" she said getting into Sakura's face.

"Shut it piggy" Sakura retorted "I'll kick your ass and prove that I'm stronger than you and show Sasuke who's the best girl for him" she said as Ino rolled her eyes.

"Please; my Ichigo can kick his ass up and down the hokage mountain" Ino said walking away "besides I like a man who isn't an emo bastard most of the time" she said as she walked to Ichigo with Sasuke fuming in the back ground.

"That was awesome" Ichigo stated "but telling the truth isn't polite at times babe" he said; Ino then patted his butt making him jump a little and blush from embarrassment.

"Sorry babe but a girl has to stand up for her man from time to time" Ino said sticking her tongue out.

"Yamanaka" Sasuke shouted getting everyone's attention " I dare you to repeat that to my face" he said marching over to her only to be stopped by Naruto and Sarada.

"Back off Uchiha" Naruto threatened "you wouldn't want your clan to go extinct right here would you" Naruto said. Sasuke was now fuming mad as Naruto smiled evilly "go ahead make the first move tough guy" Naruto said. Sasuke was about to move in but was pulled back by Sakura and Kiba.

Sarada pushed Naruto back "back off Naruto" she said "you will get your chance to beat his ass into the ground soon" she said loud enough for Sasuke to hear.

"Your right darlin'" Naruto said grabbing her by the waist "I bet you'd love to see me shit on that bitch ass pretty boy" Naruto said mockingly as Sasuke was now giving him and Sarada a death glare.

"Don't rush in honey" Sarada said kissing Naruto "I want good seats to watch the massacre" she said turning around with a smirk on her face.

"You are all making a lot of racket" said a boy walking towards the group; he had silver hair, glasses and a purple outfit. Kabuto Yakushi; "You should really keep it- "he began until he heard a scream. He then looked over and saw a brown-haired girl pointing at him.

"That's him, it's him" Yakumo shouted frantically "examiners, examiners" she yelled and Ibiki and 2 chunin showed up.

"What's wrong" Ibiki asked "why are you yelling?"

"That's the guy who I saw in the women's bath house yesterday" Yakumo said loudly "I saw him rummaging through my underwear; I made a police report because I saw him but he left the area before the authorities came" she said.

Yakumo on the inside way applauding herself for her very convincing routine; before they came to the building they needed a plan to get Kabuto out of the exams and find out everything he knows about Orochimaru. So she came up with the plan to get him arrested during the exams over a phony crime; she even used a genjutsu on the women's bath house to make several other women see 'Kabuto' to give her story more credit.

Ibiki doing his part of the routine looked at Kabuto with a death glare "so big guy scaring a little girl huh" Ibiki asked as Kabuto began to sweat profusely "well how about you try to scare me sun shine" Ibiki said as he kneed Kabuto in the stomach before punching him in the face breaking his glasses. Ibiki then pointed at the 2 chunin "take his ass into custody, disqualify his team and call in Anko" he said before he looked at Kabuto one last time "you done fucked up boy; you are going to love what we have in store for people like you" he said evilly as the 2 chunin took Kabuto away.

Ibiki looked over to the sobbing Yakumo 'Damn she's a good actor' he walked over and placed his hand on her shoulder "don't worry honey he is in custody; you're safe" he said in a cam soothing voice.

"Thank you; it was just really scary to see him again" Yakumo said wiping her alligator tears from her eyes.

'That was very convincing' Naruto thought in his mind.

'If I didn't know it was staged I would've fallen for it" Sarada said impressed by the play they just witnessed.

'Poor Yakumo' Hinata thought 'after this I'll sit down with her; she needs a friend to help her though this difficult time". Apparently, no one in the group told Hinata about the staged arrest.

"Ok maggots" Ibiki said gaining everyone's attention "we burned enough time already; lets begin the exam" he said.

The Next day the forest of Death outskirts

"Hahaha" Tsubaki laughed at a blushing Hinata "I can't believe no one told you about our plan to get four eyes arrested" she said. Hinata looked like she was about to cry from embarrassment until Moro came from behind and bonked her on the back of the head.

"Don't make fun of her" Moro said as she looked at Hinata with a sheepish smile "sorry; I forgot to tell you" she said.

"It's fine" Hinata said "so what's the plan now" she asked as Sarada spoke up.

"Simple You, me, Naruto and Yakumo will trail Sasuke and his team until they get attacked by Orochimaru" Sarada said.

"While you are doing that we are going to find the Sound team and take them out" Moro said as Ichigo nodded and Tsubaki cracked her knuckles.

"I wanna fight that dude who looks like a mummy" Tsubaki said as Moro rolled her eyes.

"Ok and what about the sand team what will they be doing" Naruto asked.

"We will be trying to pass the exam to make it to the finals" Gaara said coming out of nowhere behind Naruto and Sarada making both jump.

"Damn it you creepy mother fucker" Naruto shouted "don't sneak up on people."

"You nearly made me have a heart attack" Sarada said holding her hand to her chest.

"I apologize for nearly killing you " Gaara said bowing to her "I will try to refrain from killing you by terror in the future" he said making everyone sweat drop before turning to Naruto. "Uzumaki" Gaara began as Naruto listened "Temari has informed me to tell you 'good luck' and called you 'whiskers'" he said to which Naruto chuckled.

"Tell her I said good luck as well and to be careful" Naruto said to which Gaara nodded.

"Also Uzumaki" Gaara said "if you try anything inappropriate with Temari" Gaara said as he became enveloped in sand "I will crush you like a grape" he said before disappearing in a swirl of sand. Naruto gulped at the accusation.

'Man, it's not like I'm dating her or anything' Naruto thought before he heard a voice on a loud speaker.

"All examinee's report to your gates for the second phase of the exam; you have 5 minutes to the start" the announcer said. Naruto said goodbye to Moro, Tsubaki and Ichigo as the 2 teams began to walk to their gates.

With Ichigo, Moro and Tsubaki

Once the announcer started the exam the 3 ran in the direction of the sound team in order to take them out.

"You got their scent right Moro" Ichigo asked and Moro snorted.

"Of course, I do" she said touching her nose "I got the Inuzuka sense of smell" she said as Ichigo nodded.

"How far away are they" Tsubaki asked excitedly "I wanna beat some ass" she said as Moro sniffed the air.

"About a mile and a half" Moro said.

"Good lets find them and set up for a ambush" Ichigo said as the 2 girls nodded.

With the sound team

Dosu, Zaku and Kin were all looting from the 2-grass ninja they just ambushed. Kin felt sick to her stomach; she never wanted to be a ninja but Orochimaru had other plans for her. It's not like she could say no it was either join as a shinobi or die.

"Hey Kin" Dosu said getting the girl out of her thoughts "we got the scroll get the lead out of your ass and lets move" Dosu said.

"Give me a minute" Kin said as she placed the looted kunai into her pouch; she then heard a twig break and looked over to a bush. Underneath it was a redhead girl with glasses and a scared look; the red-head looked over to Kin and put her hands up in a gesture to spare her.

"Kin what's keeping you" Zaku said; Kin looked at him and snapped her pouch shut.

"Nothing lets just move" she said; the 3 ninja then left the area and all was quiet.

Karin moved out of her hiding spot and ran over to her dead comrades and began to cry. Kaneda and Shiki were her teammates; she cared about them, they didn't treat her like a walking medical kit, they protected her. Karin began to cry until she heard the sounds of feet landing behind her.

Karin spun round and saw 3 leaf Ninja; a busty blonde girl, a girl with long dark blue hair who was using a henge and a silver haired boy.

"Miss" the silver haired boy spoke "are you ok?"

"N-no" Karin said while crying "Kaneda and Shiki… those sound ninja killed them" she said. The blonde girl then came in front of her and kneeled down.

"I'm Tsubaki. What's your name" she asked in a soft voice.

"Karin Uzumaki" Karin said to which Tsubaki and her friends looked surprised. Tsubaki then looked over to her teammates.

"Seal up their bodies" she said as Moro walked over with 2 scrolls and began to seal the bodies away. She then turned to Karin "where did those Sound Ninja go" she asked.

"They went east" Karin said. Tsubaki nodded and lifted Karin up.

"You best stick with us for a while" Tsubaki said; Karin seeing as she didn't have much of a choice nodded. Tsubaki looked back at her teammated "Ichigo, Moro, lets move; let's go kill those bastards".

4 hours later: With Kin

Kin and her squad were camping in the forest and she was standing guard while Dosu and Zaku slept; her mind was wandering back to those grass ninja and that girl.

'She's a lucky one' Kin thought 'I'm glad I didn't rat her out; but her teammates are still dead… fuck' she thought. She then had a flash of light hit her in the eyes; as she looked she saw the red-head girl from earlier signaling her with her headband. Kin silently walked over to her and whispered.

"What the hell are you doing here" Kin whispered angrily "I spared your ass and you-" she began until a blonde girl came up from behind the red head.

"Karin said you spared her when you didn't have to" the blonde said "I'm offering you the same courtesy; your friends however they are not going to be so lucky" she said. Kin looked at her sleeping teammates and looked back.

"They are not my friends" Kin said "do what you will; I'm done" she said.

The blonde girl nodded "sit here with me and Karin" she said; she then threw a kunai with a flash bomb at Dosu and Zaku that exploded waking both up.

"What the fuck" Zaku shouted before dodging a spinning tornado and shooting a blast of air from his hands.

"Where's Kin" Dosu yelled.

"Dead just like you 2 are going to be" said a silver haired boy who slashed Dosu across the back. Dosu swung his arm around to hit his attacker with a sound attack; only for his arm to be sliced off.

Dosu fell to the ground clutching the bleeding stump that used to be his tight arm; his screams were silenced by Ichigo stabbing him through the temple. 'Ok he's done for' Ichigo thought before rummaging through his pockets before revealing both the heaven and earth scroll that he and his team needs 'ok now I just need to wait for Moro to finish' he thought as he looked over to Moro.

Zaku once again got hit with a fang over fang; his air attacks were not powerful enough to slow the attacks down. Zaku landed on the ground and was mounted by Moro with her knees on Zaku's hands; Moro then grabbed Zaku's head her claws digging into his skin.

"This is where we end our little dance; sound boy" Moro said with a feral look on her face.

"W-wait" Zaku begged only for Moro to snap his neck by turning his head 180 degrees; Moro got up and was shaking. Her rage, her hate, her bloodlust was making her unstable again; she cleched her fists so tight her nails dug into her skin.

"Moro" Tsubaki shouted getting her attention "calm down; it's over. I don't want a repeat over what happened in that hospital" Tsubaki said seriously all bubbliness in her personality gone.

Moro remembered the field hospital, she found it during a mission shortly after escaping from Kiba; there were over 20 Inuzuka clansmen and numerous other shinobi in that tent injured along with their canine companions. Whether it was because of Kiba or Koga or them being Inuzuka, she flew off the handle; she went on a rampage killing everyone she could get her hands on. By the end over 40 shinobi were ripped apart. The carnage only ended after Tsubaki subdued Moro; since then, Tsubaki has been tasked with being Moro's 'watcher', to make sure she doesn't go berserk again.

Moro took a deep breath and thought happy thoughts 'sparring with Naruto, talking with Hinata, reading with Sarada and Yakumo' she then exhaled and looked at Tsubaki "I'm calm now" she said.

"Great" Tsubaki chirped her serious mood gone "Ichigo do we got the scrolls we need now" she asked and Ichigo held both up and she hopped in joy "great now lets go to the tower and rest" she said. She then looked over to Karin and Kin "you 2 want to come with us" she asked.

Karin thought about it and nodded "yes please; get me out of this fucking forest" she said and Tsubaki chuckled.

Kin was hesitant; she just saw this happy go lucky girl go to serious mode and back to happy in a blink of a eye, then that feral looking girl probably had mental issues. Kin let out a sigh "sure I'll come with you; not like my options are that great and plus I'm probably not going to live that long anyways" she said.

"Great" Tsubaki said patting her back "don't worry we won't let Orochimaru get you; you'll be safe with us" Tsubaki said as Kin looked at her wide eyed.

"How do you know about Lord Orochimaru" she asked; Tsubaki just laughed it off and patted her shoulder.

"Don't worry about it; it'll cause you to have a aneurism" she said as Kin got a tick mark at her response "let's go already I want to get some sleep and write some more chapters of my book" she said as everyone began to run to the tower.

Kin feeling the stress of the situation build inside of her looked over to Tsubaki "so Tsubaki;what's your book about" she asked wanting to keep her mind occupied. After she said that Ichigo began to giggle like a school girl, Moro groaned in annoyance and Karin looked interested as well.

"Well, what do you know about the Icha Icha series" Tsubaki asked.

With Orochimaru

Kiba was sent into a tree knocking him out as his partner Akamaru got swatted away like nothing and into the ground.

"How pathetic" Orochimaru stated "this is what the leaf produces nowadays; my god how the mighty have fallen" he said. Orochimaru looked over to Sasuke who was on the ground in pain clutching his neck from the curse mark Orochimaru gave him, Sakura was unconscious on the ground a few feet away.

Orochimaru was about to leave until he dodged a fireball that hit the spot he was just standing at; when he landed he then dodged a hail of shuriken and kunai. However this maneuver proved to be a mistake as he was then hit from behind with a rasengan and sent spinning into a tree.

Orochimaru shed his old body and got back up and saw 4 more leaf shinobi standing a few yards away.

"Man, that was gross as hell" Naruto said looking at Orochimaru "I thought for sure my rasengan would work".

"Don't worry about that Naruto" Sarada said re-adjusting her glasses "you will have plenty of chances to try again."

Orochimaru scowled at the small group of genin "you little runts do you know who I am" Orochimaru shouted.

"Orochimaru of the Sanin, S-class criminal and traitor of Konoha; ordered to kill on sight" Hinata said activating her Byakugan.

"User of the Hebi style of taijutsu and kenjutsu; uses the sword Kusanagi he stole from the hidden grass village" Yakumo said adjusting her headband.

"User of the snake summoning contract and multiple forbidden jutsu" Naruto said pulling out a special metal kunai and charging it with wind Chakra.

"Leader of Otogakure and former member of the Akatsuki" Sarada said adjusting her glasses and activating her sharingan.

Orochimaru was now no longer angry he was nervous; most of the thing these genin just mentioned were known only to him and a few other close associates. "How do you know that?! Who are you" Orochimaru asked angrily.

"We're the team of brats that's going to skin your scaly ass" Naruto said as him and his team got into their battle stances as they prepared to begin their first big test.

Ok another chapter done; next chapter is going to be a Naruto and team vs Orochimaru chapter so be prepared. Also, before any of you begin to ask yes Kin and Karin are going to be in the harem and not Anko; I actually have a idea for Anko but I need to think it over. Ok well hopefully you enjoy the chapter so leave a like and a review and until next time bye.
