But.... He's so Short!! Novella [[[LIZAARA]]]

Welcome to the exciting event known as the Chunin Exams! Aspiring genin from all of the ninja villages are huddled together and basically made to fight to the death for the third phase. However, there's a surprise this year. The fighting test now has two rounds, which means that someone who lost their first match now has a second chance and those who won their first match now get some more time to show off their skills. Suna no Gaara just got done beating Rock Lee to a bloody pulp when he's called back into the ring with Hyūga Liznel, whom has a deadly infatuation with knives.
