Sasuke had made quick work of Dosu, and Shino handily defeated the Sound-nin's teammate Zaku . Hayate glanced up at the board for the next match.

"Aiko Uchiha vs. Ino Yamanaka . Please come down to the battle area."

The two girls glanced at each other in surprise, before steeling their features. The two Leaf ninja went down to the field quietly.

"Begin."

Aiko quietly got into a stance, while Ino racked her brain for a way to win. She had gotten stronger and faster training with Naruto, but Aiko was still faster and stronger. Her only chance was to capture the other girl in her Shintenshin no Jutsu, but it was slow and Aiko would be watching for it.

"You won't beat me, Aiko." Ino smirked, getting in her own stance. Aiko didn't respond to her taunt, however. Ino grimaced inwardly, she needed to put the girl off balance or it would never work.

Ino attacked, luckily the Uchiha had no equivalent of Jyuuken or she might be in trouble. The two girls traded swift blows, but even though Ino had Aiko on the defense, the Uchiha was perfectly calm, blocking every blow with practiced ease. Ino growled and tried to slam a particularly fierce punch in her opponent's face, but it was blocked.

"I told you," Ino whispered furiously, "Naruto likes me. Stop being such a bitch and get over it."

Emotion finally entered Aiko's face, as it settled into a scowl worthy of Sasuke, "He'll get tired of you, Ino." She replied quietly, "He doesn't like you anymore than my brother does; Naruto is just too kind to tell you."

"Shows what you know!" Ino shouted, flipping back, forming seals, "Clone Jutsu!"

Four clones flanked Ino, but Aiko didn't appear worried, "Clones? Is that the best you can do, Ino?"

Ino ignored her, running forward with her clones and attacking Aiko head on. Aiko grimaced as she punched through the illusions, wishing that she had activated her Sharingan, she would be able to just see through this with no problem.

Punching through the last clone, Aiko realized she lost track of the real Ino, suddenly a yell to her left made her turn, Ino had gotten around her and hidden against the wall using basic ninja cloth.

Aiko moved to block the blow, but it came in too fast, and with a small cry she went flying sideways as Ino's wild punch slammed into her jaw.

The Uchiha girl growled, and flipped around, landing on all fours. "You'll pay for that!" Aiko muttered, rubbing her jaw, she spat a bit of blood out of her mouth.

"Make me." Ino taunted.

Kiba laughed as the other genin watched from above, "This is awesome! Right Shino? Cat fight!"

"..." Shino said nothing.

Sasuke scowled, "Aiko should have won this by now. Ino is weak."

"Troublesome..." Shikamaru grimaced, "Why bother even fighting Aiko? Ino can't win."

"That's not a nice thing to say, Shikamaru." Asuma scolded, "Ino has been training hard, harder than you for sure."

Down below the fighting continued, but it had descended into an angry brawl. Aiko forgot all of her lessons about remaining absolutely calm, instead charging at Ino over and over wildly. Ino was surprised by the increased aggression, but responded in kind.
