So today was the day of the exams. I thought their would be a test to get to the exam but it was simply two guards guarding the wrong floor. But I knew that it was a simple Genjutsu so I simply walked by them. Once in the exam room their was a bit of talking. Their were a lot of nin I could sense. A few I knew like Kiba and his team and Gaara and his siblings. When Naruto showed up he was his usual loud mouth happy self. It was kinda cute how he acted sometimes. I could sense Ino and Sakura fighting over Sasuke. Poor boy. All he wants is to be left alone. I could sense him watching me which was unusual. After Naruto had a big outburst some person got their attention. His aura was wrong and I could sense a malevolent presence surrounding him. He's far to strong to be a mere gennin. He's here for a reason. But what. He began showing off his skills by using nin cards to show the prowess of certain nin. Sasuke had named a few but his last one surprised me. "Do you know anything about Shurui Hatake?" What. Why ask about me. "Hmm, let's see. Shurui Hatake. Daughter of the legendary copy nin. Blind and uses earth jutsu. Has remarkable chakra control and above average detection skills even above most jounin. Impressive! Add a high intelligence and you have a deceptively deadly girl." I didn't like how people were looking at me now. But luckily Shika got in their way to block me from view. The person who I found out was called Kabuto was attacked suddenly by a group of nin using sound as a weapon. I was afraid it would turn into a serious battle but a familiar voice interrupted them. It's Ibiki. I guess he's our proctor. So our first test will probably be a test of intelligence. As we all were taking a seat I realized I was sat beside Gaara. I could detect his signature a mile away, just like Naruto. I turned in his direction and spoke a quiet good luck as we were given the rules of the first test. I know Ibiki well enough to know he expects us all to cheat even after he tells us not to. Good thing our team prepared for this.

Why am I so calm whenever this girl is around. Even mother is calm and all she wants to do is kill. Strange. This test is obviously a test of our ability to gather information from other sources. I can use my sand eye to cheat but what is the girl doing. I see her and her team tapping their fingers. I watched for a bit until I figured it out. Morse code. Clever. This test was easy. Let's just hope my useless siblings pass as well.

The Morse code Shika and I came up with worked brilliantly as our team sped through the test. When the time for the tenth question came I could tell by Ibiki's chakra that he was bluffing so I relayed the info to my team. Several teams left out of fear of failing but when it was time for the reveal the ones that stayed were surprised by the bluff. He then went into explaining the purpose of his test to everyone. As he finished up I heard a crash as a new person jumped in through a window. Her whole aura screamed attitude and danger. The woman introduced herself as Mitarashi Anko and then proceeded to escort us to the next test area.
