CHAPTER 11- Get your lazy butt in gear!

`Thanks a lot Naruto…' He looked away from the loud mouth that pushed him over the railing and stared at the clouds.

Akira looked at the lazy bum on the field staring at the clouds with a simple face.

`This guy's got serious cloud envy…'

Naruto stood there, still cheering his lazy friend on, trying to get him to start.

“C'mon Shikamaru!! Get your lazy butt in gear! You got a battle to win!!” He continued to cheer. But he wasn't the only one…

“Yeah! Go Shikamaru-kun!!” Ino was going insane over, which she calls, a good for nothing-lazy ass bum. When did she start cheering that loud for Shikamaru? And when did she call him Shikamaru-kun? She only called one person that and that was Sasuke.

Sakura looked away from her friend and began to sulk, again. Where was Sasuke? It wasn't like him to be this late; it was more like…

`I'll you Kakashi-sensei!!' But how was she to be certain that her sensei was the one who had Sasuke? He could have gone to…

She squeezed her eyes shut and shook her head violently. No, he wouldn't… would he? She tried to push that possibility aside. Her mind kept going back though.

`What a bum… this will be too easy!' Temari drew back her fan and swung it forward, releasing a wind mixed with chakra.

“Wind scythe jutsu!!”

Shikamaru stopped looking at the clouds when he heard the jutsu called out.

`Oh shit!' He barely had any time to react, but made it just in time.

Temari glared at the place the pineapple-headed boy was. He was gone.

`Where'd he-!' She looked up and saw him sitting on a kunai, just above the attack's range. She could see that he had made it by a hair and that he was very much awake now. `So that's how you play huh?' She drew back her fan again.

This time, he had some stretch to react and as her jutsu was unleashed again, ran for the trees. Though he had some time, it was still too close for him.

`Gotta find some way…!' He peeked around the tree he was standing on and noticed the hole that Naruto had made to K-O Neji. `That should do.'

Temari became angry at his little hide and seek game, wishing he would just come out and fight her.

“Enough! If you're not gonna come out and fight me, I'll just have to find you by killing you!” She was about to attack when she saw him standing in the shade of the trees and the shadow of the arena. He had his fingertips touching and seemed to be concentrating on something.

Was that a hand sign?! What kind of jutsu was he planning?

His eyes opened. He was finished with his plan now all that there was to do was put it to work.

He disappeared behind the trees again, he had to in order for his plan to work. He needed that wind scythe jutsu of hers.

Wind scythe jutsu he wanted…

Wind scythe jutsu he got.

“Stop running away!” Her airstreams of chakra was unconfined once more and it sliced through the branches and trunks of the trees easily. She did it again, the trees would perish for her wins sake. Little did she know that's exactly what he wanted.

A kunai came flying towards her and she moved her fan in front of herself quickly.

“Ha, you're not gonna beat me like that- what?!” A shadow came rushing at Temari.

`Shit! His shadow possession jutsu!' She jumped back but it kept coming at her. `Shit!' She jumped back again and it followed her but couldn't reach her entirely. `Ha!' She made a line where it stopped.

“Your shadow can't go any further than this!” She smiled this was going to be fun.

`Good, her specialty is at attacking long distances.' Kankuro thought and looked over at Gaara. That Sasuke kid hasn't shown up yet. Gaara wouldn't kill him before the match, would he?

“Go Shikamaru-kun! See how cool he looks!!” Ino continued to cheer as Chouji stuffed his face full of chips.

“Yeah, this exam is too much work for him, he'll give up sooner or later.” Ino looked at Chouji with an angry glare.

“He will not! He's gonna win! C'mon Shika-kun!”

“I'll make a bet with you.” This got her attention.

“What kind of bet?” He stopped eating.

“I say Shikamaru will give up. If he does, then that means that I know him better.” Ino thought for a second. “Deal?” She smirked,

“DEAL!”

A/N: Thank you viewers for racking up my hits to over 1200! And to show my appreciation, I'm gonna scan a picture of Akira onto my photobucket account. I don't know when but I'll do it before the story ends so you know what she looks like. And yes I'm drawing it so don't you dare say it's too good for a 13 year old!

Please review!!!
