Announcer:We have decided to bend the rules a little for the mere fact that we have less participants than we anticipated, because of this 1 of our fighters will have to be facing 2 opponents, if you wish to be this fighter I shall warn that you may have to be facing your teammates

'Two battles huh, sounds fun'

With my power it will certainly be relatively easy

'Good to know, hopefully I don't have to face team 7 or 8'

Why's that

'I could really care less about these exams, as long as my friends pass I'll be satisfied, so if worse comes to worse I'll forfeit'

What about the other leaf ninja

'It's none of my concern if they pass or not, especially that Neji kid, I hope I don't have to face my team so I can crush him in the finals'

'I wonder how Naruto's doing right about now, probably freaking out hehe'

Announcer:The stage to the final exams are now commencing

*Timeskip to the finals because these fights were very anticlimactic in my opinion*

Announcer:Neji Hyuga and Naruto Uzumaki, please step forward

"Neji against Naruto? Call me crazy but even though I want Naruto to win, if he does then there's a chance I'll have to fight him"

You can't change the inevitable

'I suppose you're right, I just hope Naruto atleast makes it further, right now he's the one person I hope doesn't fail'

You care too much for that boy

'He's the only one who cared about me after the incident, how could I not?'

I suppose you're right

'Now, let's pay attention, we don't wanna miss something important because I'm staring off into space talking to you'

Announcer:BEGIN!

Right off the start Naruto threw a kunai in which Neji caught

'Naruto isn't the smartest shinobi or anything but did he really expect that to work'

He may be dense, but I can assure you Kurama will help him

'Who's that'

THE 9 TAILS YOU IDIOT!

'Could've started with that...parasite'

PARASITE?!? APOLOGIZE!!

'No'

APOLOGIZE!!!!

'Alright, fine, I'm sorry'

*Timeskip brought to you by Naruto getting his ass handed to him*

After a while of Naruto continuously getting hit something 'incredible' happened

'Those tails, they're made up of chakra, BYAKUGAN'

'I've never seen anything like that, his chakra is red, it's the power of the 9 tails'

I told you Kurama would help

'Well yeah but if it continues don't you think that it'll take over and kill Neji'

No, if Kurama would've taken control of Naruto, he would have a cloak if chakra around him, and his eyes would be red with slits

'Let's hope it stays that way, I may not like Neji but not enough for me to wish death upon him, that's just wrong'

They then started clashing until the last hit, where only a screen of dirt could be seen

Neji was crawling out of crater, while Naruto stay laying on another one

'Damnit, the one person I hoped wouldn't fail was the first one out'

Look closely, that's not Naruto

'A shadow clone, but if that's not Naruto then where is he'

Down under

As he said that Naruto plopped out of the ground and uppercut Neji

'Ooh that's gonna leave a mark'

Naruto:My clones were pathetic, that's right, I flunked the shadow clone jutsu every time, you can do it too, cause after all, unlike me you're not a failure

Announcer:The winner is, Naruto Uzumaki

*Crowd bursts into cheers*

Announcer:Up next, Shikamaru Nara and Temari

'No last name, strange'

The whole fight was very one-sided, Temari barely got any hits on Shikamaru and managed to get trapped by his shadow possession jutsu

Shikamaru:I lose, I give up

*silence*

'I'm gonna be honest with you, I'm not surprised'

He's a smart kid, if he forfeited then he knows what he's doing

Temari:What did you say?!

Shikamaru:I used up too much chakra using the shadow imitation so many times, I can only hold you for an additional ten seconds, so, I've thought about 200 possible moves, but time's up, it's too troublesome to do more, one match is good enough for me

Announcer's thoughts:*smiles* what a weird guy

Announcer:Winner, Temari, for now we will take a brief intermission while we choose our next competitors

'This is starting to get boring, my first fight against that sound ninja was pretty lame, I wasn't even trying'

Stop being cocky, you won because of me

'Yeah but that's the thing, we're barely even doing anything, I wanna have a chance to see your power too you know'

I suppose you're right

'Besides, I really wanna fight that Gaara guy, he seems creepy, and besides, he beat bushy brows, and that kid was fast'

We can now only hope we face a worthy opponent, but this is the finals, all of our opponents will be worthy

'You yourself said that you can beat everyone hear, so I wanna see the extent of your abilities'

*30 minutes later*

Announcer:For our next matchup, Gaara of the Sand, and Sasuke Uchiha

".............."

Well, think on the bright side, both are very strong shinobi, if we've to fight them it will certainly be interesting

'The match itself is pretty awesome to say the least, expect the part where Gaara started screaming about his blood, but then something strange happened, some of the shinobi watching were acting really weird'

Random ninja:OROCHIMARU HAS INFILTRATED THE VILLAGE

After that everyone started panicking, but there was only one thing on my mind

'The exams........have been.....CANCELLED!!!!! THIS IS SOME BULL-

Calm down, we won't get anything out of getting angry

'I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO FIGHT THE LAST FIGHT! HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO BE CALM!!!'

If we fight Orochimaru maybe they'll still promote us, we beat him once anyway

'Y-Yeah, you know what you're right, we got this, no problem, let's go'

Yes I'm still alive, this certainly took me a lot of time to make, I'm still feeling a little 'under the weather' but I'm starting to feel better, hopefully I can make another chapter in the next coming days, but for now our little 'hiatus' is over, see ya next time! (Goodbyeeee)
