Chiyoko's Pov ~Age 7~

I was really excited when I woke up this morning, you see today is the first day of the jonin exams and gramps said that I qualified for them this year! The exam basically goes like this. There's an intelligence test in the beginning to see who can get the most and the best intelligence, during this part the group will be cut half down. After the intelligence test there's a physical portion and whoever is left from that one will ultimately become a jonin  while the other's have to wait and try again next year like usual. 

The intelligence portion of the test is being held in the intelligence and interrogation building's lower levels. The anbu are going to spectating and watching our every move during this exam as some the current jonin take part and help run the exam. I was one of the first people to show up at registration, at the desk was inoichi and shikaku. I met inoichi and shikaku when I had to take people into the intelligence unit of the building, they were pretty surprised to see that I was already a chunin as their kids were still in the academy. I walked up to the duo smiling as I held out my paper work to enter the exam "I see you're going for the exam this year chiyoko" said inoichi as he took my paper's "Yup! I've been a chunin for 3 years now and I think its about time I upgrade, that and ita-kun and shi-kun aren't chunin anymore and I don't want to be left behind them for too long" I said earning a chuckle from the older men. 

I walked into the room taking one of the seats up in the front of the room so I can see better. After an hour of sitting around a man walked in saying that he was the proctor of the exam. He explained what was going to happen during this portion. We were all going to be given a different destination within the land of the fire, and at that place we had to find the 'bad guy' and follow him around for 2 days collecting data before coming back here and reporting what we found out, of course the 'bad guys' will be fakes played by some comrades. After we sat and listened through what we are suppose to do everyone went up to the desk that sat in the front of the room and got a sheet of paper that said where they were suppose to go in the land of the fire. I was lucky and got a nearby town, its name is Nagoya and me and itachi have had a  few missions that either passes threw the town or been in there so I already know where its located at. Unlike some of the other people I got a description of the person that I have to follow around, it works out better for me since I'd be able to find them easier. 

We were given an hour to pack up everything that we'd need before we had to head out of the village, being the smart person that I am I packed last night and have everything with me right now. I didn't take my sweet time like most people who had close locations did, knowing that every second counted and if I really wanted to be a jonin then I'd have to do my best against people who have 3x the experience that I do. It was a good 2 hours of running through the tree's by the time that I reached the small town, and the sun was high in the sky so it must have been some where around noon. I looked at the description on the paper again, male who's 5' 8'' with black spiked hair and brown eye's. It wasn't much but enough to find someone in this small town. 

I started my search in the middle of the town, I had made a few shadow clones to help along the way and to cut the search time down. It only took an hour for a clone to disappear letting find the location of my target. I was on the other side of town, canceling the jutsu I made my way over making sure to keep my chakra hidden and taking off anything that could identify me as a ninja. I had deiced to use my appearance as an advantage, since unlike the other examines I was still a kid I used this to my advantage. No one would be expecting a kid to be a chunin in the middle of their jonin exam and would easily talk about their plans or other thing alike with one nearby since kids were also suppose to be thick skull-ed and stupid. 

The next two day's were slow and slightly boring in my opinion, I didn't sleep at all and followed my target the whole time only eating when he stopped and ate, and so on and so forth. By the end of the second day the man turned and looked straight at me with a smirk before releasing the transformation jutsu and nodding his head towards me to return to the village. He didn't nod directly at me but in my general direction, he must have been an anbu since my chakra wasn't high enough to be detected by a  jonin. I left my hiding spot and started back towards the village, intelligence gathering had always been really boring to me but then again I always preferred to fight than gather intelligence. 

On my way back to the village I had put my normal clothing back on and ended up meeting up with a couple of other people who were taking the exam as well. I had gone on a few missions with some of them before so we ended up talking catching up with each other on what had been going on in our lives. By the time we all got back to the village everyone had gone quiet going back to our professional appearance's since we were back in the village and the exam was still going on. We all walked back into the exam room, there was a station for each town. I went to the one that was set up for Nagoya, pulling out a scroll that I had wrote everything down in I placed it into the hands of the anbu member who held another scroll to compare the information to. After a good 10 minutes the anbu nodded and wrote some stuff on a piece of paper before handing it to me "Report to room 702" he said in a gritty voice, I nodded before leaving the room. I looked to the room number to see that I was just in room 704. Going two doors down I walked into the room seeing that I was the first person inside of the room. As time ticked by a person or two would come in. By the time the hour to turn our information in was up there was a total of 20 of the 40 of us inside of the room. 

A side door by the desk up in the front opened up and gramps walked into the room with his pipe in mouth as another guy followed close behind shutting the door after he came into the room. When the duo had entered the room everyone went silent and stood alert waiting to be told what we were going to have to do. Gramps looked over everyone in the room and as his eye's landed on me they lit up just a little bit. "We have deiced to remove the physical portion of the exam this year, I've looked through all of your records and seeing as everyone in this room had won their chunin exam and I know that your all very strong on your own, we have deiced that for this year only those who can last 2 hours with Ibiki will become jonin, there are more and more missions each year that deal with relying message's to neighboring village's and we need shinobi who are both strong of body and mind" said gramps "Alright maggots! grab a number and wait for it to be called" yelled out the man who I'm assuming was ibiki. He was tall and is wearing a black trench coat and gray shirt and pants much like inoichi wears every once in a while. Most of the shinobi that I see in the torture and intelligence units have this kind of uniform? I think it is at least. We all went to stand in line grabbing a number out of the box as we went. When it was my turn I stuck my hand in the box grabbing a sheet of paper. I pulled my hand out and looked up to ibiki who had a curious look in his eye's. I grabbed the edge of the paper and opened it up, gulping I turned to to show ibiki the big bold number 1.
