The demons within the devil [Completed]

SURVIVING THE CUT! THE ROOKIE NINE TOGETHER AGAIN!

You kept your gaze on Sasuke, deep in thought but that was soon broken by Naruto's scream. You turned to look at the blonde haired knucklehead who had finally woken up. You remember your Sharingan was open, you walked where you threw your eyepatch at and once you found it, you put it back on and walked back to Naruto. Naruto seem to be taking his surroundings looking from you to Shade then Sasuke and Sakura then at Ino helping Lee, he then looked around with panic "Everyone hide!" Naruto yelled falling to the floor to crawl "Quick get down, That ninja where can she be hiding?" He continued looking around.

"Naruto?" Sakura questioned as she and Sasuke turn to look at he, Choji poked Naruto's head with a big stick as Shikamaru spoke "You really are one of a kind that's for sure. And I mean your the kind that gets on my nerves" Shikamaru finished while Choji agreed. Naruto glared at them then went back to looking around he soon started to panic again "Sakura! Sakura! Sakura! Something happened! Yea I mean something serious happened! Something happened to your hair!" Naruto shouted running towards Sakura, Sasuke, Shade and you "Oh, that's all. I just wanted to.....change my look. I like it better long but when I'm out in the wilderness like this and moving around all the time it gets in the way too much" Sakura explained.

Naruto nodded and looked towards Choji and Shikamaru who were coming his way "What's your story? Why are guys here in the first place? What's going on around here?" Shikamaru sighed "Explaining everything to you is going to be such a pain" "Everyone showed up to help" Sakura answered. Shade looked at Naruto then at Ino and Lee as TenTen came to help her teammate, Lee finally woke up after TenTen shook him and soon Sakura was yelling at Naruto for calling Lee bushy brow claiming that Naruto better not say anything bad towards Lee. Sakura turned to look at Lee "Lee, thank you. Because of you, I was able to stand up for myself and I've become a little stronger" Lee looked at Sakura on the verge of tears answering "Thank you Sakura but it seems my efforts alone were not good enough. So Sasuke, you are as good as your reputation. Just what you would you expect from the Uchiha clan. To beat those ninjas you must've been very strong, not like me, I was just beaten to a pulp."

'What's he talking about? Beaten to a pulp? Is he serious? Were those guys really that strong?' Sasuke thought in shock. You looked at everyone then you noticed something in the corner of your eye, making them go wide......you saw Itachi looking at you with a small smile on his face and motion you to come closer, you then looked back at everyone to see that no one was looking and you quickly walked towards Itachi "What is it Itachi Sensei?" He looked at then took off your eyepatch looking into your Sharingan "Your almost to the next stage (M/N)...... Have you decided?" He asked giving back your eyepatch. You nodded then put back on your eyepatch "Yeah.....I have" "What is it?" You turned your head to the left side and looked at everyone then back at Itachi "I'm going back to the Akatsuki.....to train. Sasuke doesn't know how stronger  I am than him.....I'll leave after the third stage.." Itachi nodded then ruffled your hair "Your like Aunt Saiuke.....confident and calm" you fixed your hair back then small smile remembering the memories of your mother and father "Yeah.....well I'll see you later or tonight" Itachi nodded then disappeared while you walked back to the group.

Shade saw you walking up to her and stood next to her then she looked back at her team then at the direction the tower was located at 'We should get going, I need to talk to Anko' she thought as you picked up the bag you carried the other scrolls in and walked away from the group with Shade following." Shade! (M/N)! Where are you going?!" Naruto shouted, Shade turns around and looks at him "We need to keep going with our mission, we'll see you guys in three days" she answered turning around again." Wait (M/N)!" Ino called "Hm?" You asked stopped walking and turned your head "Would it be okay if you gave us the scroll we need?" "Ino?!" Shikamaru sighed "What?! It's worth a try" she answered. You smirked making Shade shiver then turned to look at her "Sure" "Really!" Ino smiled as everyone else turned to you disbelief "Yeah....you can have a scroll but you'll have to defeat me in a fight.....just remember I wouldn't go easy on you" you answered a smirk on your face with mischievous in your eyes "N-no thank you" Ino answered backing away 'Thought so' "Alright we'll get going then" Shade said as you walked away "Good luck with the rest of the exam!" She lastly yelled.

Once Shade and you were away from the Genin the fake smile dropped. Shade was not only worried for sasuke but the rest of the village 'If Orochimaru is here then everyone's in danger, I need to tell Anko' she thought as you both dashed away.

______***_____
Shade ran nonstop towards the tower, and she also knows that you disappeared to the tower, the only thing on her mind was the danger that Orochimaru brought towards the village, reaching the tower, Shade ran in at a fast pace but once inside she met with two different squads, two she knew very well. One of the squad was Kurenai's team and the other was from the sand village with you talking to them, everyone stared at her as she stopped by the door "Shade what are you doing here?" Kiba asked "There's some business I need to take care of so I came back earlier than expected" she answered walking into the room.

As she walked in she made eye contact with you and the other squad, she nodded in recognition and turned back to look at Kiba and the rest of his team "Glad you guys made it this far. I'll see you guys later" she said walking towards the other side of the room and towards the hall. She made eye contact with you then the sand Genin, well Gaara and she stopped to look at you "You coming (M/N)?" You opened your eye to look at her then rolled it as you stood up "Tch....I better since you'll be freaking out later..." You said monotone and tiredly. Shade growled and was about to punch you but you grabbed her fist easily and you had the deadliest glare you ever had "Don't.Even.Dare.Idiot." You said then shook your head and went down the hall away from Shade, Shade's eyes widen when she saw your eye changes into different colours then she shook her head and went to find Anko.

*Timeskip after Shade talked to Anko*
"First of all, congratulations on finishing the second exam!" Anko talked through a speaker to all the Genin. All the Genin were now in front of the Hokage in a big indoor area, while official Chunin stood by his side 4 on each side, the Jounin in charge of the remaining teams stood behind the Hokage, You and Shade stood next to Kakashi while his other side was occupied by Giy Sensei next to him was Kurenai and next to you was Asuma, in total there were 9 Jounin so 7 teams remained.

You stayed silent thinking of a plan to meet up with Itachi while Shade remained silent looking at the remaining Genin "I see your team didn't do too bad Kakashi" you heard Guy Sensei speak "They've must've gotten real lucky. Of course my team still around your team is doomed to failure, after all what matters on the next test is ability and we've got you far outclassed. Well I guess that part of growing up is learning to deal with heartbreak right Kakashi" Guy Sensei smirked and turned his head to Kakashi "Humh, did you say something?" Kakashi asked turning to look at Guy Sensei. In return Guy Sensei looked mad and turned away from Kakashi, Shade chuckled turning to look back at the Genin.

Alright now pay attention, Lord Hokage is going to explain the next exam to you!" Anko yelled. Lord Hokage walked forward and started to explained the true purpose for the Chunin exams "Okay now listen closely! I'm going to tell you exactly what you all will be doing in the third exam!" Lord Hokage started but another leaf ninja jumped in front of the Hokage bowing as he spoke "Lord Hokage, before you do. Please allow me Hayate Gekko as Procter of the third exam to speak first" "So be it" Lord Hokage agreed.

"It's nice to meet you all" Hayate spoke getting up and turned around "There's something I would like all of you to do before the third exam" he spoke coughing in between each couple of words. He stared at all the Genin as the Genin started back in shock.
