Unmask the Kitsune

Second Round Begins

"Alright... with that...

The First Round of Chuunin exams will now Begin." Everyone's attention were directed at the man.

"I'm the proctor for the first round, Ibuki Morino. This first exams has a few important rules. You will answer the test paper infront of you and you will have to finish it within a certain amount of time." Ibuki explained as the examinees turned the paper and read the questions before they answer. Everyone was in confusion when the test paper seems to be incomplete without question Number ten.

"Excuse me---" a random ninja raised his hand to ask for it... "Where's the tenth question? Are we only gonna answer nine?"

"It's good that you notice it. We will give you question number ten if you happen to finish all of the first nine questions." Ibuki replied with a smirk. "Also... if you are going to cheat then at least don't make us notice it. Once we saw you cheating, then you are out." He said making the genins confused and lost by his words...

"Start!!!"

'Test paper? Written exam?' Naruto asked confused in his mind. 'Kit~ you're so gonna fail this course.' Kurama stated joining him in his mind.

'Wow~ I don't wanna hear that from a fox who doesn't know anything.'

'Haha~ we foxes have a high hearing capability and sharp sight for prey. I can use this to cheat but, how about you?' She said as she smirked at Naruto who's making waterfall of tears right now. 'Hmm~ I'll just conract Susanoo be right back.'

'W-wait a s---' Naruto didn't finished his sentence as he was cut off from Kurama's link. He could only just sigh for the upcoming despair that was going to happen. 'What should I do now?' He stated, he was beginning to panic himself, wondering why those old geezers in 'heaven' never taught him written knowledge. 'Calm down, Naruto. You can do it. This won't hold you... back.' He let out another sigh again as he found it hard to apply his encouraging words to himself.

Naruto was about to give up when a sudden movement beside him cause him to turn to his right. It was then that he noticed the timid purple haired girl right beside him. 'Eh? I didn't notice this girl. She could've said someting instead of being quiet.'

He was surprised when the girl slipped her paper through her left arm allowing him to see the answers in every questions. Naruto was unsure of what the girl was doing. He was very cautious, it might be a trap for him to be kicked out or something more malicious.

"Uhm... Hinata, right?" Naruto whispered at the girl, unsure if he was capable of remembering names. The girl only nodded in response not even paying a single glance to Naruto. The girl has red tint visible on his cheeks. 'Is she sick..? Anxious..? Uncomfortable?' Naruto asked within his mind as he watched the girl. Too dense. "Hinata-chan, I can't really copy y'know. If I were to be spotted copying from you then there will be a possibility that the two of us will fail. Besides, I got this..." Naruto said in a reassuring voice making Hinata blush for his concern of her...

'No... way... I didn't mean to act cool like that~! Waaa~~~ This is so Embarrasing.' He yelled, contemplating...

An hour had already passed and most of them were finished. Some of them were eager to know the question for Number Ten. Naruto on the other hand had his paper still blank. The proctor then called for their attention to announce something...

"It seems that almost all of you are already finished. Now. For question number Ten. Before I give it out, I will give you one last chance to back out from the exams and will never be allowed to answer the last question. This question is the most crucial and very deadly for everyone considering the fact that half of you will most likely fail if you were to answer it wrong. So... pick your poison."
