Truth

By Yue-Gonzhu

Chapter 3 - Before the Exam

 

 

I looked at that building. It was the same as last year. When Orochimaru stroked, it was destroyed, but was rebuilt after the battle.

 

It made me nostalgic. I am quite anxious actually… Who knew what the exams would be reserving for us…? Stupid wasn't it? Me, being an Anbu at a young age, scared of the Chuunin Exams…

 

My fears were probably felt by Kyuubi-nii since he started to growl in me.

 

Yes, Kyuubi was my nii-san, well adopted of course. He was really not a bad guy! That night, the night of the attack, he was too angered. Orochimaru killed his daughter and mate, and told him that the ninjas of Konoha attacked them, which sent him in his demon rage. Blind by his demon rage, he killed numerous ninjas and citizens without realizing what he had done. He regretted it but it cannot be reversed, the seal had formed by Yondaime. He has no choice but to let the Shinigami seal him in my body…

 

“Kit. Are you alright?” his thunderous voice echoed in the deepest of my mind.

 

`Yea… Just anxious, that's all…' I answered him with my thoughts.

 

“Don't worry… You'll do just fine.”

 

`Thanks nii-san.'

 

Kyuubi-nii didn't answer me but I could feel his contentment. To him, I'm the Kit that he had but all lost. He was really protective of me, not that I mind of course…

 

I looked at my teammates. Sakura was looking tense, while Sasuke just clenched his fists. I could tell his excitement.

 

Yes. I should be excited as well. This time I'll become a Chuunin!

 

I looked back at them and saw them nodding at me. I smiled. Not the goofy one, but a true smile. Sasuke looked surprised but I didn't care. I would tell them the truth soon, why should I care?

 

I took a deep breath. Then I led the way; my team trailed behind me.

Kakashi had already left us to meet the other Jounin instructors. As we entered the building and arrived at the room, we were surprised to see that there weren't any genjutsu on the door. Maybe because they thought that we were too good and too awesome to fall into a trap like that one?

 

“Kit! Don't act like your mask please! I am already annoyed by it and if you become like that… I'll become crazy!” growled Kyuubi-nii.

 

`Sorry Kyu-nii… but it is the truth you know…'

 

“…”

 

So I laughed. The Great Kyuubi No Kitsune was out of words by a mere human child girl? Hilarious!

 

In the depth of my mind, I heard Kyu-nii growled and replied.

 

“You are not a mere human you know… well, not really. Because you're my vessal, you can't be call as a mere human and you know it!"

 

`Whatever…'

 

He's right. Since I'm his vessal, I couldn't be count as a mere human. My Chakra pathways could allow more Chakras to pass and my senses were more powerful than those of normal human had. If you wanted acomplete definition of what I am, a human youkai, which means I am in the middle of the two different kinds. This didn't appear on my physical so it wasn't sealed.

 

I turned my head to observe other teams.

 

Lee was the same as before. He still had those thick elbows and his green spandex suit. I shuddered. `I wonder if he'll be the next Green Beast…'

 

Neji looked almost the same as before. Only his eyes changed a little bit. They had somewhat softened, as he did not glare at everyone anymore. `Does he still have that destiny thing? I really should ask him. Not now though… after the exams I guess…'

 

Hinata looked shy as always. Though she left her habit of playing with her fingers. Gosh that got on my nerves countless time before! Thanks god that she had rid of that habit! ((sorry people but I really don't like that habit! Though she was cool and all,I think that she is too shy!Cuz I think girlsare better independent... No offense to girls, especially shy girls since I'm a girl and I have a lot shy friends, I still think that we should all be independant... :D ))

 

Shino was like always, mysterious, while Kiba was loud as ever. God! He was louder than me with my mask!

 

Ino was clung on Sasuke's arm and arguing with Sakura while Shikamaru was sighing and saying `troublesome' countless time. Chouji was eating his bag of chips as usual.

 

Gaara and his siblings were the same, except Gaara's killer intent eased a bit. Oh and Kankurou's face was weirdly painted. Nothing surprised really…

 

All my friends were here ready to take the exams. I am as well… the only person I knew who wasn't there was that traitorous Kabuto who worked as a spy for that bastard Orochimaru!

 

The Sound was not a participant of this year's Exams. How could they actually? They have tensed their relationship with Konoha and as well of our allies. Especially after that last attack Orochimaru led. I seriously doubt that they'll participate in any Ranked Exams of Hidden Leaf, Hidden Sand, Hidden Grass, Hidden Lightning and Hidden Mist. Of course that the Hidden Mist and our relationships were not as great as the one of Hidden Sand, they were still our allies against the Sound and Akatsuki. That'll only leave one option: the Village Hidden in the Stone, since this particular village had been Konoha's enemy since the Great Shinobi War. Last time I heard, the Sound allied with Stone, though that wasn't confirmed yet… I just hoped that they won't ally with Akatsuki, or I'll be toast! Well, not technically but close… Even with my full power, I won't stand a chance against them. Maybe against the Low Ranked one yes but with the Higher Rank, I'll be captured for sure... that's why my powers were sealed. Not only for being a teenager, it also gave me a chance of run when ever my powers were usless against someone or when I run to a Akatsuki Member...

 

I was interrupted of my musing by Sasuke's voice.

 

“Dobe, the first exam will start soon. Snap out of your daydream and start preparing yourself!”

 

I looked up. Ibiki, the same examiner of last time came out of the examination room and snapped at us.

 

“I'm your first examiner! Come with me!” he ordered before leading us in the room.

 

“The Chuunin Exam will be in two parts. They will be testing of your competences and also of whether you are worth of being a Chuunin or not. The first part is…”

All right… finished the third chap… finally…! OUF! This chapter is longer than the others!

Ok, back to business: I have some important things to say.

-First of all, can anybody tell me what exactly is a Mary-Sue? I received a review telling me that my story is Mary-Sue but I really don't know what is it!

-Secondly, I need someone who can translate my own Jutsus to Japanese…

-Third of all, I officially open the poll of pairings! Please note that there will not be Yuri or Yaoi. I can't stand Yuri and I can't write Yaoi. So, please vote whom you want Naruto to be paired with. And after finishing Naruto's pairing, we'll see about other characters. Also, please know that I will make the final decision of pairings. So if a pairings is really not my thing, then I'm sorry, I can't write it down…

- And finally, I need help! Could someone give me some ideas on the first part of the Exams? I want to be original... cuz Naruto and others past the first part of exams so they know what to expect... I want something original that they didn't know...

That's all, thanks for reading my fic… Till next time!
