"I'm Ibiki Morino, proctor of the first stage of the Chunin Exam."
The crowd of Genin turned to stare at him in silence and he pointed his finger at the back of the group.
"You! Genin from the Sound Village! No doing as you please before the Exam! Unless you want to be failed before we've even begun?"
Team Dosu turned to look at the scarred man, and Dosu cleared his throat slightly.
"Sorry. It's our first time taking the Exams, so we flipped out... despite ourselves."
"Hmph." Ibiki chuckled slightly and he lowered his arm. "This is a good opportunity, so I'll say this now: There will be no battles, competitions, and the like without the permission of the proctors! And, even if you do get permission, actions that could lead to the death of an opponent will not be permitted."
Ibiki's eyes narrowed as he looked over the entire group and his expression darkened. "Any pig that screws with me will be disqualified immediately. Got it?!"
Most of the Genin furrowed their brows and met the intense look with one of their own, remaining silent.
Zaku smirked slightly and crossed his arms. "This Exam looks like it's going to be too easy."
The proctors chuckled to themselves and the corners of their mouths twitched in smirks as they watched the haughty Genin.
"Now then," Ibiki continued. "We will finally start the first test of the Chunin Exam. Turn in your applications now, take one of these number cards in exchange," He held up a small with the bold number one on it for them to see. "And then, sit in the seat corresponding with that number. After you've done that, we will hand out the paper for the written test."
"Written...?" Naruto repeated under his breath. "Paper...? Paper...?"
Kotetsu held up a stack of papers with a smirk, giving them a little shake as the candidates looked at him.
"A p-paper test?!" Naruto's stammered and his eyes widened, his face paling slightly.
After every candidate had turned in their application and sat, the tests were placed in front of each of them with the backs up. Once the room quieted, the proctor's assistance all sat in chairs on either side of the room with a clipboard and watched the candidates carefully.
Naruto gulped at his seat as he looked around the room and made a face. "Everyone's seats are all scattered... what should I do?" He gulped again and clutched at his head.
"He's deflating..." Sakura watched Naruto clutch his head and rest his forehead on the desk, then she smiled to herself as she sat two rows behind him. "It's the worst type of test for Naruto..." She laughed quietly under her breath.
"Naruto..." Hinata mumbled quietly and looked at him as she sat to his right.
"Huh?" He sat up slightly to look at her. "Oh, you're Hinata. Since when were you...?"
