Here I go!

Chapter 22 - The What Now? ( Chuunin Exams Part 2 )

"I like those that are like you the most, it's a shame you die too quickly and if you try anything like this again, you're disqualified"she spoke as she licked the blood off his damaged skin before glaring sharply at me for a split second. I smirked as I relaxed my arms once again, a sound of glass shattering ringing through the air as the ice needles fell to the ground, making a few gasps escape as people glanced between each other. Ice release wasn't really a common thing, y'know?

After the scene was over and everyone went to sign their forms, Oni-chan ran over to me.

"Hey sis, that was so so cool!"he said, sparkles dancing in his eyes as he jumped up and down in excitement.

"Yeah, yeah, whatev-"I started but stopped as soon as I saw a square "rock" hit Naru's foot. He looked down before walking in a small circle around me, the weird thing following in toe before slamming into my brother's foot once he stopped walking.

"Oh come on, no rock on this planet is square!"he yelled, dramatically pointing at the... box?

"You saw right through my disguise boss, but I didn't expect anything less from you!"a familiar voice yelled as smoke clouded our vision. As soon as the smoke cleared we could see Team Konohamaru standing in all their glory.

"What in the loving hell are you 3 doing here?!"purple striper said as she appeared out of nowhere.
"We are here from the academy newspaper to interview some people"Moe-tan replied, holding a voice recorder and a notepad.
"Ah yeah, Hokage-sama mentioned it. Alright, 10 minute break! Those that are getting interviewed go on and the rest, do nor interrupt!"purple dot yelled.

"Come on boss and Mai-nee, we are interviewing your teams"Udon sniffed, adjusting his glasses.
"Alright, I'm gonna go find them"I said before disappearing into the crowd in search of my team. It didn't take me long to find Ayane getting held up by her collar for whatever reason by that sand guy as Haku tried calming him down.

"I've already had more than enough of you kitty boy, put my teammate down or you won't see the end of the exams"I threatened, twirling a kunai in my hand.
"Oh look at that blondie, your tomato friend came to save your gut"he mocked, looking at her emerald eyes.
"Do whatever you want with me, but don't you dare insult my friends"she spoke in a deep tone.
"Oh, did I anger the little wittle blondie?"he laughed and just as I was about to jump in action, Haku held me back.

What surprised me more was when, not a second later, Ayane had the guy pinned to the ground, a kunai to his throat.
"Ah yes, yes you did make me angry and believe me, if we were allowed to harm others, I would've killed you by now but it seems I'll have to wait until we get into that forest so"she said as she got off of his back and started walking away before turning around to face him one more time.

"Don't die if I don't get to kill you"she said before grabbing mine and Haku's hand and walking away from the circle of people that gathered to watch the whole thing go down. We walked in an awkward silence before I remembered why I was looking for the 2.

"Um, team Kono is here to interview us and team 7"I said as the 2 nodded before we went to where I was at the beginning of my short search to find Moe-tan standing there, waiting for us.

"OK guys, Mai you are up first, then Ayane and Haku at the end"she said and we nodded before I followed her into some sort of a booth.

"Alright, time to start, please introduce yourself"she said, holding the recorder to me.

"My name's Uzumaki Mai, twin sister of Uzumaki Naruto. I'm 13 years old and am a proud member of team 13 under the leadership of Maki Yukie, our jonin sensei"I said.

"Have you ever been interviewed before?"she asked.

"Nope, this is my first time"I grinned sheepishly.

"Alright Mai, we heard you used to be the 4th member of team 7, would you mind telling us why you are not anymore?"

"Because, as you probably know, genin teams are supposed to be formed out of 3 people. I was 4th because of the odd number of students that year. As soon as my fellow teammate Ayane graduated from the academy and Haku became a leaf village ninja, I was placed on team 13 as the 3rd member"I explained.

"Fine, so, how would you describe your old teammates and sensei as well as your relations to them?"

"Lets start of with my brother. He is a blond knucklheaded idiot that can't help but try to be the very best in everything he does. He hates Duckbutt aka Sasuke and this gets in the way of teamwork as well as his liking to Cherry. We are excellent when it comes to working together since we are kinda used to each other.

Next of is Haruno Sakura or Bubblegum or Cherry as I nicknamed her. She is a smart one and can be polite at times but most of the time is a burden to the team because of her obsession with Mr. Emo Duck and blinding hate for me and my brother for whatever reason. She hated me and probably still does so we never really worked that well with one another.

Next, Uchiha Sasuke or Duckbutt, Duckpost, Ducky, Mr. Emo Duck, Emo Ducky and so on and so on. As you can probably tell from his nicknames, he is the emo one. He is incredibly strong and intelligent but thinks very lowly of his teammates and refuses to work with them, thinking he is better off on his own, plus he is obsessed with his revenge ambition. My whatever you wanna call it with him is very confusing. I remember one day we were kinda something similar to friends and the next we were like eternal enemies.

And the last but not the least, Hatake Kakashi, the Copycat ninja aka Grandpa. There is no doubt that he is insanely strong as well as smart and will do anything and everything to protect his team, no matter the cost, but when we used to do D rank missions, he would be a lazy ass, sitting in a shade with his nose stuck in a perverted book. He was always like some sort of an annoying nice uncle to me"I spoke.

"Ummm, OK, how about you tell us something about team 13?"

"Well, there is Yuki Haku, my childhood best friend. He is calm, collected, patient and polite as well as smart. Even though he would never hurt a fly, don't be fooled, if it's for the sake of someone close to him, he will destroy his golden heart and kill the opponent if necessary. We build a bond way

Second, there's Sadao Ayane. In a somewhat strange way, she is similar to Ducky if we look at her sad background story and cold emo nature. But even so, she is, unlike him, not blinded by revenge or hatred and does not think low of her comrades. She graduated earlier from the academy thanks to her intelligence.

Last of all, there is our sensei, Maki Yukie. She is, just like Grandpa, very strong and would give up her life for any of ours in a heartbeat. Even after becoming a jonin at the age of 14 and being such a well known and powerful ninja, she still managed to be a happy-go-lucky person to this very day"I finished, making her smile.

"Thank you very much!"she cheered with a bow before walking outside to call Ayane in.

About 10 minutes later

"We are done here, thank you once again for letting us do the interview"Kono said as all 3 children bowed before exciting the exam sight. My team and I got our heaven scroll a few minutes ago and it was safe and sound with some empty scrolls that Ayane will cast a genjutsu upon so that they all look the same except for a little detail we will ad to them: they will all have a tiny number 13 on the far corner.

"One more advice before you go in: Try not to die!"purple striper said, standing on top of the tall fence as we all stood in front of the big gates, waiting for the signal.

"Oh man, I was planning to die here until you advised us not to"I mumbled sarcastically.

"On your marks, get set, go!"and just like that, the gigantic gates opened and we sprinted inside.

Eyo people! How's everyone? Not mad I hope, I'm sorry for not updating in a while but it will get better in a bit more than 2 months!

Anywho, thanks for reading, see you next time annnd

You're the best,
Don't let others get you down,
Stay awesome,
Love you all,
