The Growth of the Second Cherry Blossom: Sakura's Twin Sister

Chapter 19

The match between Shino and Zaku started. The only thing was that Zaku's arms were in slings because Sasuke broke his arms.

"Heh, I'll win this fight! No problem!" Zaku yelled. Shino wasn't phased.

"I wouldn't doubt your opponent if I were you. No matter how small they may be," He said. This made Zaku laugh.

"Oh Please! I'll blow you away!" He yelled and brought his arms out. He tried using his jutsu, but it wouldn't work. His arms started to blow holes out of them.

"I told you, don't doubt your opponent. No matter how small they may be," Shino said and his bugs flew around him. Zaku started yelling and the match was over. Zaku was rushed out and Shino walked back up to the balcony.

"Woah, he defeated him with bugs?" Naruto asked Sakiya in amazement.

"Yeah, he's from the Aburame clan. They used bugs as their jutsu. They let them stay inside of them and then they use them when needed." Sakiya explained to him.

"Oooohh. That's gross," Naruto said and wrinkled his nose at the thought of bugs living in him. Sakiya giggled at him. They watched as the board flew through the names again. Misumi Tsurugi vs. Kankuro. Sakiya watched them go to the center. She didn't know anything about these two. She had only met the Sand Siblings and apparently, Gaara knew her. Why? She didn't know. Kankuro gave her the vibe of a cross between Sasuke and Naruto. He was cocky and arrogant and then yet he was childish. The match began and the guy was wrapped all around Kankuro.

"Woah! He can dislocate his joints and do that," Sakiya said in amazement. She watched as Kankuro's face started to crack.

"What the hell?" She said. She could feel herself leaning on the railing. She was interested in jutsu. It amazed her and she didn't know why. She suddenly felt eyes on her. She looked around and scanned the room. Everyone on her side of the balcony was watching the match. She looked down at the sensei that stood around the Hokage and they were watching the match as well. She looked across the way at the other side and saw something staring directly at her. She saw it was the sensei from the hidden sound village. He had two teams. The one with Kabuto and one with Dosu. She wondered why he was staring at her. She shook it off and looked down at the match. Kankuro had used poison darts on the guy, which meant he had to be immediately removed from the arena for treatment.

"Woah, he's scary," Naruto said with a gulp. Sakiya looked at him.

"I thought you wanted to fight strong ninja?" Sakiya said with a smirk. Naruto looked at her.

"Not if they have poison darts," He said. She looked back up at the board. It flipped through names. She thought about how many people were left. It made her nervous because she didn't know anyone else's strengths. It landed on two names. Sakiya felt her heart stop.

"Sakiya Haruno vs. Kabuto Yakushi," Hayate called out.

"Go Sakiya! You got this," Naruto said to her.

"I believe in you sis," Sakura said with a smile. Sakiya looked down, seeing that Kabuto was there. She jumped down into the middle of the arena and walked forwards.

"Looks like we meet again, Sakiya," Kabuto said.

"Looks that way," She said. She was nervous. He didn't really help in the forest, so she didn't know his jutsu. She had a bad feeling about him.

"Begin!" Hayate yelled and got out of the way. Sakiya jumped back, trying to make some space between them.

"Distance won't help you," Kabuto said. She saw his hand glow with chakra. It looked like a knife. He charged at her. She quickly made hand signs. Right before he got to her, a wall of Earth formed in front of her. His hand came through the wall but stopped just a couple inches from her heart. She felt her breath hitch. She backed away, but her back hit the wall. Kabuto broke the rest of the wall.
