《Inner Demons》Chunin Exams Begin!

Advertisement

Voices are raised in annoyance as we push our way through the crowd. Everyone is surrounding a single door labelled with the room number we were told to meet at. Two men stood at the door, restricting access from aspiring Chunin participants. I feel irritated as I watch the scene before me, 'these people looked like jerks'.

I started to stride up to the men, arrogance and pride taking over. I felt my hand clench into a fist, ready to punch one of the men as soon as we got into range. I was closing in on them when I felt a soft tap on my shoulder. It was soft and hesitant, as if the person was unsure whether this was the right action to take. I turned around expecting to see a petite female but instead I saw the most unexpected person.

"Naruto?!" I was confused, befuddled and unsure on what was going on. Naruto's face was blank, a void of emotion. He looked right and left before whispering something in my ear.

My only response was, " Tch, I knew that! Only a complete and utter IDIOT wouldn't notice that the door and people are acts of genjutsu!" I pushed him slightly, causing him to fall behind me and I continued to walk onwards.

This time, my choice in action was different however. This time I wanted to show off my knowledge to the people around us.

" Oi brat! You're not allowed in there!" The man's face looked down on him, a glare of distaste.

" Hn, I didn't want to go in. This isn't where I'm heading, this is merely a genjutsu to fool those who are unworthy of becoming Chunins."

"Tsk! You got us..." A puff of white smoke blurred my vision before I saw that the figures had changed. They now wore proper ninja gear that conveyed their status as Chunin or higher.

" Well, are you going to go to the class now?" I glanced up at the male, remaining stoic and aloof before I merely grunted in acknowledgement. I then sauntered away, Naruto and Sakura scurrying after me. We almost made it to the door when we heard a squeaky, enthusiastic voice.

I turned around to find a scrawny boy wearing the most HORRENDOUS green bodysuit and also fashioning bandages around his arms. His face was lit with determination and excitement. " You there!" He pointed at Sakura, showing all of his teeth in a wide grin, " My name is Rock Lee! Will you go out with me?!".

I already knew the answer before it was spoken- well, screeched. "No way, baka! I only love Sasuke-kun!"

" Who's that?" The teenager asked, obviously hoping that he could destroy someone as supreme as ME.

"Hn." I grunted, gaining his attention.

Lee straightened up before declaring, " I challenge you to a battle for this fair lady's heart!".

I merely gave a sigh of annoyance before I quickly surveyed the setting around us. No one else was here besides his two teammates, a girl and a boy. The girl looked bored and slightly annoyed, while the boy was winking at someone behind me. I turned around, expecting to see Sakura or a different beautiful girl. There stood Naruto. He looked flustered from the attention, yet he gave a small smile back in the boy's direction.

I felt a tiny bit of annoyance at the situation before I brushed it off. I didn't like Naruto at all, why should I care if someone flirts with him? I turned back to my opponent and began to fight.

Author's Note: Contrary to multiple beliefs, I am NOT DEAD! [*Insert confetti bomb and cheering here*]. I am SO sorry for not updating sooner, I was caught up with quite a lot of things and ended up neglecting my writing. Anyways, I'll try to make it up to you. Also, this isn't a Neji x Naruto fanfic (in case you were confused). I support the ship but that isn't where the story is headed, you shall find out why I put that in there later on.
