"Minxie... Minx." I ignored the person calling my name. All I wanted to do now was crawl into bed and sleep forever.

"Minxie!" The person called, sounding very urgent this time. I opened my eyes groggily, rubbing them. As soon as I remembered what occurred the night before, I flinched away from the person who had tried to wake me up.

"Get away!" I screamed, crawling back and bumping into the wall. "Wait... Why the flip am I on the floor!?"

"That's just what I was about to ask you. And why are you telling me to get away?" Mitchell asked. Oh, so it was him... Not my creepy reflection stalker...

There's no way in hell that I fell asleep naturally last night. That thing from the mirror... She... She touched me! But she's not real... Right?

"Minx... Are you okay?" Mitchell said, kneeling next to me. His violet eyes shone with concern, which was saying a lot, since he was never really concerned about anything.

"Not really," I said shakily, running a hand through my hair. "But I'll... I'll be fine." Then, I remembered what was happening today.

"HOLY FUDGE! THE CHUNIN EXAMS! I need to get ready!" I shouted, running around the room like a maniac.

"Um... Sure. Let's go with that," He said, shrugging. He sighed, exiting my room and leaving me to change in peace.

Grabbing everything I needed, I got myself ready for the day, taking a shower and getting dressed.

Once I was completely done with getting myself ready, I paused in front of my mirror. Looking at myself briefly and placing my headband around my forehead, I grabbed a cloth that was thrown randomly in my room. 

With a quick movement, I had covered the mirror completely. No reflection of mine would be appearing and freaking me out like yesterday.

I smoothed my hair down, letting out a deep breath. I walked over to my room door, opening it slowly. Chunin Exams, here I come...

"All of you! Stand still and face forward towards the guests... For you all are the stars of this year's Chunin Exams!" The proctor guy announced. It wasn't Hayate, like last time. Hm... I wonder what happened to him...

The stadium was crowded with people, all of them from various lands and nations. They were all eager to see the Chunin Exams, wondering who'd win in which match. They all tensed with excitement, whispering about seeing the match between Sasuke and Gaara. 

Apparently, some of them were excited to see my match as well. They whispered things like: 

"Oh, it's that girl from the Takeda clan... The only survivor! I wonder how strong she is..."

"Isn't she that Uchiha kid's girlfriend, too? Maybe she's strong like him..."

"Those emerald eyes... She's a Takeda, no doubt. Who's she going against? I bet she'll win..."

"Nah, she doesn't look that strong. Isn't she the weakest link or something?"

And comments like that just kept circulating. None of them helped my nerves at all. 

I looked around, noticing that Sasuke wasn't here, either. He told me he'd be here... So where the heck is he? Dosu was absent, too. You know, since Gaara killed him.

... It's bad that I say it like it's nothing, right? Gaara is very lucky that he's cute. If not, I would've smacked him and talked his ear off.

But the thing is... I saw no one else besides the original candidates who had drawn the numbers after the premilinaries. Meaning... I still had no idea who I was supposed to fight. Oh, well this is just dandy.
