Three Weeks Later, Owen was seen with his brothers. It had been a while since they hung out together and to keep their brotherly connection alive, they decided to spend some time talking about their teammates and sparring. Noku mentioned that being on Team Ino was interesting to say the least. The blonde teal green eyed girl had flaws, just like Shika, but when the moment came to be a leader, she earned her stripes in that department. Shika was the second in command and very tactical despite seeing even everyday living as a "Drag".

For Edwin, he remarks that Rock Leigh was incredibly gifted, despite not being blessed with the potential that made Kounichis Kunoichis. Nejiko was a bit of an Edge-maiden. But she would, AT TIMES, expose her true self to Edwin. Perhaps she was growing more comfortable being around the middle Brother of the Noshuan Brothers.

Owen talks about his teammates too. But he also talks about these weird dreams he was having. Along with seeing his past-lives Osu and Uso. Now...Despite the Noshuans being philosophers in their own right, they didn't believe in reincarnation. They believed that there was indeed a heaven and a hell, but reincarnation? It was a hard pill to swallow because there was no way one could be reborn in a different body and view life through the lens of that said body. Owen, Edwin, and Noku did agree on one thing...Something big was coming their way. Each brother could sense a powerful force that tried hard to mask itself. Yet Failing.

The brothers would talk about the Chunnin Exams. Their Sensei's brought these exams to their attention. These exams would further the brothers towards their goal. They would also meet different Kunoichi from different Nations of the Ninja World. In fact, Owen already met a trio that came from the Sand Village. It was a sisterly trio of Temari, Kankuko, and Garika. These girls were the daughters of the late Kazekage, the leader of the Sand Village. Out of the three sisters, Sabaku No Garika was the one that filled Owen with the most excitement. He couldn't wait to challenge her potential and see how his potential rivaled hers. She likewise, but for a WHOLE different reason.

The Chunnin Exams were a week after the Third Week. And while everyone was preparing for these Exams...Kikyo, somehow, someway...Located the MAIN antagonist that would become the main Antagonist of the Noshuan Brothers. Orichimara Frieza. That's right, the female variant of Frieza was reincarnated into a woman named Orichimara. Twisted like her past life in every way imaginable, Orichimara experimented on those that wanted to become TRUE Freaks of Nature. This meeting between Kikyo and Orichimara was to inform Orichimara that Kikyo and HER past life had fused into one being for this SOLE purpose. This SOLE Canon event.

Kikyo informed Orichimara that Owen was the past lives of the men they used to love. Yes, female Frieza also had affections for Uso, but only teamed up with Blackfire to wipe out the Sengokuans due to their ability to gain potential and wisdom at a much faster rate than she or the Tamarans. Orichimara chuckles turned into Howls of laughter. Turning to face Kikyo due to her having her back turned towards the Priestess/Tamaran, says, "I love how you think." She tells Kikyo. "And I have the PERFECT plan to make our dreams...A REALITY..."

Now what was there to say about the Chunin Exams? They were exams to extract the best from the worst. The strongest from the Weak. Teams Naruko, Ino, and Gaia took part in the chunin exams, along with their other classmates that went to Konoha Academy. The first part of the Chunin Exams dealt with a written course. This was the first part of the exam because it separated the strong from the weak. The key to the written course was to see who could cheat without getting caught. If you got caught... "GET OUT OF HERE! AND TAKE YOUR LOUSY TEAMMATES WITH YOU!" Fuki Iyuki, the instructor for this part of the exams, would not only call you and your teammates out, you'd get humiliated and lose your chance of becoming a Kunoichi or a Shinobi. FOREVER.

Due to the wisdom gained throughout their travels and throughout their sparring, The Noshua brothers were able to finish their test and even pass notes to their teammates in secret in order for them to pass. However... "PENCILS DOWN!" Iyuki was about to throw a curveball. She told the participants that they already failed. In given detail, she explains that these "Snot-nose Punks" never had a chance of becoming anything other than failures. They could never become the greatest Kunoichi or shinobi like those who came before them.

This enraged Naruko, who gave a speech displaying that nothing would stop her from achieving her goal of becoming Hokage. Not even a "Stuck-Up Bitch Like Iyuki". Naruko's words. Everyone nodded in agreement, each with their own goals/Ninja Way in mind. Iyuki smiles. "Very well..." She says, "If that is what you wish to be your fate...Then Congratulations! You all pass the exams!" Baffled and confused, the participants' baffle and confusement would expand even further once Anko Mitarashi entered the scene. A "Variant" of Naruko most would agree. Even Owen.

Anko led the remaining participants to the Forest Of Death. "Ooo..." Owen steps over towards the gate, along with Noku and Edwin. "Hey Ed, can you see what's inside the forest?"

Edwin peeks a bit. "It's pretty dark in there." He tells Owen. "But enough about that, are we gonna talk about THAT GIRL over there?" Edwin points his finger at a Grass Kunoichi. Something about her...Felt...Off...Like...WAY OFF.

Noku seethes for a moment. "I felt her energy since the written part of the exam." He tells Owen and Edwin. "Whatever or Whoever she is under that human face, she isn't someone nice."

"Huh...What are you..." Then it clicked. "She's wearing a human face." Owen says to his brothers.

Noku nods. From their teammates POV, they were wondering what Noku, Edwin, and Owen were talking about. Kinuyasha especially. Honestly, she didn't see a point in doing all this just to travel the world. If she only knew how much the world changed since her slumber. "HEY!" Anko shouts. "GET AWAY FROM THE GATES!" Edwin, Noku, and Owen did what was requested of them, with Noku getting smacked on the ass by Anko. "Nice ass." She remarks. "You can bounce a Kuyo off that thing." A kuyo was a nickel in Konohakagure. Noku just looks at her dully while massaging his bum. Anko passed out scrolls to the teams of Konoha and other villages and explained the reasoning of these scrolls. Heaven and earth scrolls. To ascend to the next part of the exams, you needed both Heaven and Earth Scrolls. You also had to sign a waiver. And that waiver was made JUST in case you DIED during the exams.

That's right. If you Died...You Died...Plain and simple. Should've just become a carpenter or a shop owner. It was around the afternoon, the 15th hour, when Anko shouts, "ALRIGHT YOU MAGGOTS! THE SECOND PART OF THE TEST HAS BEGUN!" The chains clipped and the gates opened, allowing each Ninja Team to sonic rush through the forest.

'Now then...' Orochimara says in her mind... 'Let's have some fun tormenting the Young and Lovable Owen Noshua.'
