The demons within the devil [Completed]

NARROWING THE FIELD: SUDDEN DEATH ELIMINATION!

"There's something I would like all of you to do before the third exam" Hayate spoke coughing "Uh, we have to have a preliminary exam before we can move on to the real one" all the Genin looked at Hayate in shock taking what he just said in." Preliminary! Just What Do You Mean By That?!" Shikamaru shouted "Um I'm sorry Sensei excuse me, but I really don't see the point. What's this preliminary all about? Why can't we just move on the third exam?" Sakura asked.

"Well you see, the first and second exams might of been too easy. The fact is we never expected so many of you to still be here. According to the rules of the Chunin exams a preliminary round can be held at any stage in order to reduce the number of candidates remaining" Hayate explained." B-but is that fair?" Sakura questioned "It's just that at this stage we have to speed things up a bit. As Lord Hokage said, a lot of important guest will be watching and we can't waste their time, so if there are any of you that your not in top physical condition nows your chance to" Hayate started coughing before finishing his sentence but soon stopped and continued "Sorry about that. As I was saying, any of you who don't feel up to this, nows the time to leave. The preliminary exams will start immediately.

"C'mon! You Mean Right Now?!" Kiba shouted "We just finished barely surviving the last exams, don't we get a break?" Ino asked "Man, what a drag" Shikamaru commented "Oh yea, the winners will be decided by one on one combat sudden death" Hayate added. Shade stared at all the Genin but her team caught her attention, a look of pain crossed Sasuke's features as he held on to the curse mark, Shade presumed. Sakura started talking to Sasuke and soon Naruto turned around to see what was going on, She presumed Sakura wanted Sasuke to quite the Chunin exams and she could see why..

"It's just as I feared" Lord Hokage spoke catching Shade's attention "What do we do with him?" Ibiki asked "We take him out of the exam, hand him over to black Ops and let them keep him locked up. We have to keep that seal under control or-" Anko was cut short by Kakashi "Oh and he's gonna quietly go along with all of this huh, you really think so? Your forgetting he's of the Uchiha clan" "I Don't Care What The Heck He Is! If He Stays He's A Danger To Everyone! Don't You See! As He Gets Stronger So Does The Curse Mark! That Thing Is Feeding Of His Chakra! It's A Forbidden Jutsu That Devours The One Who Bares It! It's Incredible He's Still Standing... By now he should be dead, Lord Hokage..." Anko finished.

Shade looked at the Hokage as he stared at Sasuke, then moved her gaze to Sakura and Sasuke who seemed to be arguing. She stared in shock as Sakura was about to put her hand up but someone else did before she had the chance, Kabuto raised his hand smiling "Okay you got me, I'm out." Hayate looked at a list of participants before allowing Kabuto to leave, Kabuto left but not exchanging some words with Naruto. Shade looked back at Sakura to see her and Sasuke discussing something, tears in Sakura's eyes. The Hokage spoke again catching your attention "I'm still concerned about what Orochimaru said. Allow the boy to continue with the exam for now and we'll see what happens" "W-what? B-but Lord Hokage!" Anko said "However at the first sign of the curse mark growing or his power is getting out of control you'll step in and stop it" Lord Hokage continued "Right" Ibiki answered, Anko was gonna argue but sighed answered "As you wish"

"Alright then, we will now continue with the preliminary round. This is not an exercise, these battles will be one on one. There are 22 of you remaining along with two of our Jounin so 12 matches will be held. The winners of these matches will move on, as for the rules there are none. Know it's time to reveal what faith has chosen for you" Hayate spoke as he turned to look at Anko with a nod. Anko then spoke into a speaker and a screen appeared on the wall "The names chosen will appear on the monitor behind me, the names of the first opponents will appear" Hayate finished.

Everyone stared at the screen, waiting for the names to pop up. The names were shuffling but soon stopped and the screen read
