Naruto: The Legend Of Astora

Part 1 Chapter 20: Second Exam Start

Huh? Naruto said. H-hey, what does that mean? All of a sudden your telling us that we passed!? Sakura said. Brain restarting... brain back up. What about the tenth question!? Sakura said. I stood up. This was the tenth question isnt it!? All of that test was to see if were good at information gathering, huh!? I yelled. Ibiki laughed. There wasnt such a thing to begin with. Well, you can look at the choice you just had to make as the tenth questin. He said. What!? Sakura said. Hey! The blonde on gaaras team said.

What was the point of the other questions!? She yelled. Well i think Astor said it best, information gathering. Ibiki said. I see, i see i kind of felt that was the point of the test! Naruto said. No you didnt. We all thought. I tuned out everything until i heard something flying in. I turned to the window, getting a suprised look from Ibiki as he turned as well. Then a woman apeared as she threw kunai to hang up the black cloth behind her.

You guys! This isnt the tim to be celebrating! Im the proctor of the second exam! Anko Mitarashi! Lets move onto the next stage! Next! Follow me! Anko yelled with her fist up. Gyat damn shes hot. I thought. Ibiki thwn srepped out from behind the cloth. Read the atmosphere. He said. Ankos face redened a bit. 78!? Ibiki! You let 26 teams slide by? I guess, the first exam this time around was to easy. Anko said. It seems like this time, there are excellent candidates. Ibiki said. Me and my sister were drooling at anko by now.

Huh! Well, all right... ill drop more then half of them in this exam! Anko said. M-more than half!? Sakura said. Im getting exited. Ill give you the details tomorrow! Anko said. We'll be changing locations, so get information from your jonin about the location and the time! Thats it. Your dismissed. She said. The next day we were standing infront of a gated off forest. W-what is this place? Naruto said. Tjis is the location for the second exam, the fourty fourth training field. Also known as the forest of death. Anko said.

The forest of... death!? Naruto said. Then a box aproached us. What the fu... I muttered. Huh? Naruto said, looking at the box. Is that supposed to be a rock? Naruto and Astora thought in sync. I knew it was the thirdd grandson, so i tuned out once more. When i tuned back in Anko was explaining. This place is called the forest of death, youll soon find out why. She said. Then naruto... was doing a Naruto thing. The dorest of death, youll soon realize why. That kind of threat wont work on me one bit. Im not scared! He mocked. Really? Youve got alot of energy. Anko said.

Then she pulled out a kunai and threw it at Naruto. It cut his cheak, but i drew my sword and pointed it at Anko who apeared a milesecond latter. A kid like you dies at every begining, dappled with the red blood i like. Anko said then turned to me. And you are quite sharp kid. She said. I just gave her a blank look. Then Anko grabed a kunai and a grass ninja appeared behind Anko. Im returning you kunai knife. The grass ninja said holding the kunai with an ungodly long toungue. Thank you for taking the troble... but dont stand behind me, thirsty for blood. If you dont want a quick death... Anko said.

I just looked at the grass ninja who looked at me. Well its my nature to act up at the sight of red blood. The grass ninja said. And my precious hair was cut so i got exited. She said then walked away. Freaky bitch. I thought. I sheathed my sword and stood next to Naruto. Evedently, weve got alot of hot-blooded kids this time. This will be fun. Anko said. Well before we start the second exam i have to pass this out to you! Its a consent form, before you can take part in this exam you have to sign this. She said. Why? Naruto asked. From here on out corpses will come out, i have to get your consent to that! Or itll be my responsibillity. She answered. Oh so its real now. I said. You bet it is kid! Anko said.

Well, ill start explaining the second exam now. In a word, the limits of your survival will be challenged. She said. First, ill give you a step by step instruction of the terrain of the training feild. Training feild fourty four is surrounded by fourty four locked entrance gates, there are rivers and forests and a tower in the middle. Its about ten kilomiters from the tower to the gate... in this confined are, you will go through a certain survival program. She said. The contents of wich are... anythin goes scroll battle! Ok you lost me. I thought.

Scroll? One guy questioned. Yes. I want you to fight for two scrolls, the heaven scroll and the earth scroll. Ok you reeled me back in. I thought. All together twenty six teams got through the first test. Half of them thirteen teams get the heaven scroll, and the other half get the earth scroll. Anko said. Oh, its all coming together now. I thought. Ill hand over one scroll to each team. To put it simply, thats what your fighting for. She said. And the conditions to pass? Shikamaru asked. Three of you bring both the heaven scroll and the earth scrolls to the tower in the center. Anko answered.

That means out of the thirteen teams, half will fall for sure... Sakura said. Exept it has to be in time. For this second exam, the time limit is one hundred twenty hours. Do it in exactly five days! Anko said. Five days!? Sakura said. What do we do about food? Choji said. Dude, animals exist ya know. I said to choji giving him a blank look. After that i tuned out everything and thought about stuff. Will i survive? Will my teamates survive? Why is cheese so expensive? Thoughts like that flowed through my mind. Then i was brought back to reality with a smack to my head.
