The Ten Tails (A Naruto Fanfic)

Chapter 15

The next day, the four was at the bridge, once again. But this time...Akiko was sleeping. Surprise surprise! Anyways.

The team got tired waiting for Kakashi Sensei.

"Why is it that he's the one who always calls us out, and never show up!" Sakura yelled in frustration.

"Yea yea!" Naruto agreed.

Why are these guys so hyper in the morning...Sasuke sighed and mentally facepalmed. The Kakashi appeared.

"Hey, good morning folks." He said as Naruto and Sakura yelled at him for being late.

"Uh well.. This is sudden, but I recommended you guys for the Chunin Exam, so... Here, these are your applications." Kakashi said and handed us four an application.

"Chunin exams?" Sakura asked.

"That being said, the recommendations are not compulsory. You guys are free to decide whether you take the Exam or not." Kakashi said.

"All right! I love you, Kakashi Sensei!" Naruto said as he ran over to hug Kakashi. (I was literally like (▀̿Ĺ̯▀̿ ̿) but like yea.)

"Hey! Cut it out! Get away already...! Anyways." Kakashi said, patting his clothes.

"For Akiko, you're a different case so yea." Kakashi Sensei said.

"Hai.." Akiko said and yawned.

"If you want to take the exam, come to room 301 of the academy at 3:00 pm, five days from now. Akiko, you can come."

"Hn..."

"That's it. I wish you all luck." Kakashi Sensei said before disappearing into thin air.

"Hehe! Chunin Exams! Chunin Exams!" Naruto chanted as the four walked.

"I bet a lot of strong people will be there!" Naruto said as he admired the application. The team went on thinking about the chunin exams. Naruto thought about winning, while Sasuke thought about fighting Gaara.

I....I don't want to do it...Here I can't even keep up with anyone. Sakura thought. Akiko seem to take notice of this and began walking over to the poor girl doubting herself. Akiko placed her hands on Sakura's shoulders.

"Do it for Sasuke. If you do it, maybe Sasuke would like you." Akiko whispered into the girl's ear as she immediately began to fire up. But little did Akiko know, that Sasuke had feelings for a certain someone.

---------- 5 days later

Many people from different villages poured into Konoha to take the Chunin exam. Akiko, Sasuke, and Naruto waited for Sakura as she finally came. Akiko smiled at her.

"Sakura your late!" Naruto whined.

"Yea, sorry about it." She said and the four walked in. The hallway was full as the four saw that a guy was getting beat up.

"Ho? They allow people this weak to attend the chunin exam?" Bully #1 said.

"Please let us through..." The girl next to him with 2 brown buns said. (TENTEN MAH GIRL, MY LOVELY) She walked over to the class labeled '301' and the bully #2 punched her, but was blocked by Akiko. Her snow white hair fluttered as her thick eye lashes looked at the bully.

"Stop." She commanded as her chakra filled the room. The room tensed up as her immense chakra was overbearing. It was just like Zabuza's bloodlust, but worse. The tension suddenly stopped as Akiko went over to the girl and helped her up.

"Are you ok?" Akiko asked as the girl looked up at her.

"Thank you, Tenshi-san." She said as she walked away with the boy with the bowl cut. (Tenshi means angel.)

"An argument. However, you will let me pass." Sasuke said. He walked up to the pair.

"And could you also remove the genjutsu while your at it? It's kinda annoying." Akiko deadpanned at the two.

"Well well...."

"So you noticed huh?"

"Right Sakura? You noticed it first." Akiko said, trying to give the girl some confidence. Sasuke looked at Akiko with a 'what are you doing? She's useless' face as Akiko shook her head. (But like she is)

"Huh?"

"Your analytical strength and Genjustu realization has improved the most in our squad, So."

"Akiko-chan...thank you. Of course. I realized it ages ago! You see, this is the second floor!" Sakura said confidently and smiled softly at Akiko who returned it. The sign immediately turned to '201'.

"Well, not bad. But all you've done is catch on. Right?!" The bully launched a kick as Sasuke did the same but was stopped by the boy that was getting bullied. He had a green spandex/jumpsuit on. A bowl cut and bushy eyebrows.

H-he's fast. This person, He's a different person that was getting punched before! Sakura thought. He let go of both of the guys foot ad sighed.

"Hey, this isn't what you promised. You were the one who said that you wanted to keep a low profile." A guy with long brown hair and pale lavender eyes said.

A Hyuga. Akiko thought. Bushy brows began to blush as he looked at Sakura. He began walking over to Sakura.

"My name's Rock Lee. Your name's Sakura right....?" Lee asked as he began to blush harder.

"Please go out with me! I'll protect you until I die!" He said as Sakura looked disgusted.

"Absolutely....not." Sakura said, grossed out. Lee sulked as he looked at Sakura.

"You're...too tense." Sakura said as Naruto laugh. Then Lee began walking towards Akiko and bowed.

"Thank you Tenshi-San for protecting my comrades!" He said.

"Ah... it's Akiko." Akiko said while smiling, she wasn't used to this kind of stuff.

"You, identify yourself." Said the Hyuga, looking at Sasuke.

"It's common courtesy to give your name first when asking for someone else's name." Sasuke said with a smirk. Akiko went over to poke Sasuke's cheek.

"Don't pick a fight right now Sasuke. This guy is a Hyuga." Akiko whispered.

"You both are rookies, right? How old are you?" The Hyuga asked.

"I'm not obliged to answer." Sasuke asnwered.

"Same here." Akiko said as she walked off.

"Now then, Sasuke-kun, Naruto, Akiko. Lets go!" Sakura said as she dragged the three up the stairs towards room 301.

Yare Yare, the chunin exam is full of monsters........
