Ryuki: I-I can't believe I won babe, like my lil sis was really kicking my ass out there.

Ino: (laughs) You two gave it one hell of a battle. I'm proud of both you guys.

Shikamaru: Yeah. Too bad only one could've made it to the final exam.

Naruto: Gives this to rin for me ryuki. (Hands ryuki a gift) Tell her it's from whiskers.

Ryuki: Sure thing Naruto (takes the gift and puts it in his pouch) Good luck on your upcoming match bud.

Naruto: Thanks. And awesome match out there today. After seeing that I'm sure hyped for my match! Anyways take care! (Runs back to his group and stands next to sakura)

Ryuki: Thanks. You too.

*After a rather quick match with Kankuro leaving victories, the next match progresses*

Hayate: Okay time for the next match. (Watches the monitor as it stops) The next match will be, Ino Yamanaka and Sakura Haruno.

Ryuki: Whoa. What a pick. (Looks at Ino as she has a certain look that he hasn't seen before)

Ino: I got to fight Sakura huh?

Shikamaru: Seems that way.

Ino: Well then I have no choice but to win right. I'll win for ya.

Ryuki: This fight is for you not me. I believe in ya. Now go out there and kick some ass.

*Flashback*

Ryuki: You want me to train you?

Ino: Yeah.

Ryuki: But I mean are you sure babe cause the training Is kinda harsh and extreme.

Ino: Trust me, I'm all in for this. I have my reasons Ryuki. Just like you.

Ryuki: Well I can sure see the fire in your eyes. (smirks) Well How can I say no. We'll start tomorrow okay?

Ino: Yeah sure thing (kisses him on the cheek) I'll kick a lot of ass for you babe.

Ryuki: Make me proud. (smiles)

*Flashback ends*

Ino: (smiles) You bet. (Walks and spots sakura as they exchange a look)

Sakura: (Looks back then walks down to the battle ground)

Ino: I never thought I'd have to fight you or at least this soon. Don't expect me to go easy on you.

Ryuki: (Leans on the metal bar) Mhm, this is a rivalry match. I can't wait to see the verdict of this. Let's go!

Asuma: Three of my students fought back to back. Well now Ino you have the advantage in this fight. So let's see what you can do.

Naruto: Go sakura! You can do it!

Ryuki: (Looks at naruto then Ino) Let's go ino!

Hayate: (pauses) Begin.

*Without a second to spare they both dashes towards each other and on the first blow they clash fist and counter each other attacks*

Naruto: Sakura has this match in the bag!

Shikamaru: Yeah. Whatever you say fool.

Naruto: Huh (turns to shikamaru) What'd you say!?

Ryuki: Ino's gonna win this match naruto. (Looks at ino) She has a lot of damn fighting spirit in her. A lot more than you think.

*Ino and sakura stop for two seconds then continue the fight*
