Note: I just choose this picture because it looks cute.

Sakura: but wait... that doesn't make any sense! If she have the sharigan, why didn't she use it during the first round? Rito said that she leave the paper blank!
Naruto: and like I said, she's an idiot. She probably didn't even thought of cheating.
Ino: Mito, do you know about this?
Mito: ya... she use it just now during the second round (thought) well, I know about it since a long time ago.
Sakura: you mean that you didn't know about it earlier?
Mito: yes...
Naruto: see? What I said is true
Mito: but... how did you know that Rito have the sharigan... (thought) that demon should have known about it! Why..?
Sakura: oh ya! Rito didn't even tell Mito about it but you know! Mito is her best friend!
Naruto: well.... I just knew, alright?
You shared a SS class secret to a bunch of brats. Brilliant! Just brilliant!
Naruto: ( thought ) ya, just shut up

Back to the fight....
So I'm lazy to write what exactly happen, but I will give you a brief summary
As soon as the fight started, Rito use her sharigan, surprising quite a lot of people. Not including the people who already know and the Konoha Genin.
When Ron use a jutsu, Rito will used the same jutsu on him. When Ron ran around, Rito attack him with taijutsu to beat him. When Ron use taijutsu, which he's bad in, Rito will fight back with taijutsu, which she's good in, on him. So in the end, Rito won

Hayate: stop ( cough ) winner is uchiha Rito.
Rito: (sweating profusely) yes!!! I won!!
Ron: I would have won if you didn't have the sharigan
Rito: but sadly, I have them~
Hayate: and that's the last fight ( cough ) let's welcome the hokages ( cough ) for a speech ( walks away )
Rito: is he alright?
Ron: he seriously need to see a doctor
Sakura: I can't believe that he became a Jonin
Ino: I'm amazed that he actually became a shinobi!
Naruto: don't look down on him. He might be stronger than you think
Kiba: I don't think so, he look so weak that even I... I mean you can defeat him
Naruto: ya... though he is tokubetsu jonin like Ibiki... sensei
Sakura: what is a tokubetsu jonin in the first place?!
Naruto: it just mean some people who is not actually strong enough to be a jonin but are specialized in something, for example kenjutsu, they are able to break the rules and be a jonin
Sakura: then why Ibiki sensei look so surprised when you said that he is a tokubetsu jonin
Naruto: well.... not many people know him, due to the fact of what he is in charge of, so he is surprised that I know him, I know that he is tokubetsu jonin and he is not a teacher
Sasuke: what is his job?
Naruto: what are you talking about? Of course he is a shinobi
Shikamaru: ( trying to hold his laughter )
Sasuke: I mean what is he in charge of?
Naruto: he is the head of the TI force
Choji: what's is the TI force
Naruto: it's short form. In full it means the torture and interrogation force. They are in charge of getting information out from shinobi.
Sakura: you mean the thing that zabuza got into?
Naruto: yes
Ino: wait... so the rumor about zabuza in Konoha is true?
Sasuke: well... yes
Kiba: wow! one of the seven swordsman
Kushina: quit talking already Genins!

And it was then that they realize, everybody is staring at them

Minato: em...I'm trying to make a speech here, could you all keep it down?
The konoha Genin: hai...
Minato: thank you.. as I was saying, the third round, which is also the last round, of the chunin exam will be held a month after, please don't be late or you will be disqualified. The third round will be a one on one match. Could the Genin that won come up now and draw your number card for the match?

They went up and draw, the result is on the screen.

Naruto ( 1 ) vs Neji ( 2 )
Sasuke ( 3 ) vs Gaara ( 4 )
Kankurō ( 5 ) vs Shino ( 6 )
Temari ( 7 ) vs Mito ( 8 )
Shikamaru ( 9 ) vs Rito ( 10 )

Naruto: ( thought ) I got one.... great, that neji guy
What's wrong with him?
Naruto: ( thought ) he is just annoying with his destiny, fate and stuff
And here I thought it was because of that hinata girl
Naruto: ( thought ) what? Why?
She is nice to you... not like the others. She likes you... not like the others. She tried to help you... not like the others. She...
Naruto: ( thought ) stop... before I get headache. If you like her so much, go talk to her yourself
What? I saying the truth!
Naruto: ( sigh ) Kurama. I don' t like her, got it?
Rito: Naruto nii? What's wrong?
Naruto: nothing...
What do you mean nothing?! I'm serious here! Do you like her or not!
Naruto: ( ignoring him ) can we go?
Sakura: not yet, the yondaime haven't release us yet
Naruto: oh....
kit? Kit? Kit? Kit? Kit?
Naruto: ( thought ) could you shut up?
Kit! Finally! You are not ignoring me!
Naruto: ( sigh ) what do you want
So do you like her or not?
Naruto: ( thought ) like I say I don't like her and please just stop talking
Hm! I want the old kit back! At least he shows feeling!
Naruto: hai hai...
Minato: and that's all I want to say, please use your time wisely. See you all at the last round
Rito: finally!! It's over!
Mito: what are you going to do during the half month?
Rito: sleep!
Sakura: could you say something more realistic?
Rito: ?? I don't get it
Ron: she meant training, to get prepared
Rito: oh...why?
Mito:... never mind
Naruto: okay time to go ( shunsin )

Appear at the training area...

Naruto: let's start to do my punishment
Hey kit, if you don't like hinata, do you have anybody you like in particular?
Naruto: no
Oh come on! Name someone you won't mind to be friend with!
Naruto:... I don't need friends
But you need someone you can trust, right? Someone that's around your age and not like Kakashi, iruka, Itachi or anko they all
Naruto: nobody
Then do you feel happy when you are with them? You know? Your teammates
Naruto: come on, Sakura is a total banshee and Sasuke isn't any better
Then the others? Like Kiba they all
Naruto:... why are you asking all this question?
....
Naruto: answer me, why are you asking all this question?
...you know that your emotion is back, don't you? Or should I say they were never gone.
Naruto: ....what are you taking about, my emotion are gone.
You know! You just don't want to admit it!
Naruto: no it's not back! It will never be back!
Don't listen to what that doctors says! You know he can't be trusted! He is one of the medical experts! You recognize him! You know he's lying but you choose to trust him!
Naruto: he's not! He's right! My emotion aren't back and it will never be back!
Then why are you shouting now? If your emotion isn't back, you won't panicking and shouting.
Naruto:....
Kit... it's not good for you. You are making the people around you worry
Naruto: oh? Really? Who?
....
Naruto: Tell me Kurama, who are those who would be worry about me?
....Some people
Naruto: some people? Who? Dad? Mom? Mito? Sakura? Sasuke? Who exactly would be worry about me?
Your dad and mom are worried about you!
Naruto: but most of the time, they don't see me. Mito hates me. Sakura only cares about her Sasuke and Sasuke just think he could make use of me to make himself stronger. Maybe Hinata cares but it's just a short term care or maybe even pity. None of them treat me as a twelve year kid and no one cares about me.
I care about you! You are my kit!
Naruto: yes, and I care about you too... But if having emotion only makes me feel more hurt, then what's the point of having it in the first place? Wouldn't it be better for me, the monster, to have no feeling at all?
Kit...
Naruto: please Kurama... just... leave me alone for awhile...
.....okay.
Naruto: ( smiled ) thank you




The end
Note: although when Naruto was younger, he was tortured and to counter this shock, his body sealed his emotions away.
So he started acting out emotions since then to be more... normal.
But then one day, the emotions are back. He don't know what triggered it but... he didn't want it back.
Since a monster don't need emotions.
