Chapter 15 - Forest of Death

Training Ground 44 also known as the forest of death. Its Konoha's deadliest training ground reserved only for chunnins and ANBU. The forest itself contains various monster and other deadly animals from big spiders to gigantic bears and tigers.

The forest of death is the traditional place for second round of every chunnin exam done in the leaf. The chunnin exams are hosted in various countries and rotated. Every three years the chunnins happen in the leaf.

To everyone in Konoha the forest of death, as the name says, its hell and one place to don't come near. Obviously this doesn't apply to the crazy snake lady, also known as Anko, to her this place is her home away from home and the reason she is always in charge of the second round.

Of the original two hundreds applicants to the chunnin exams more than half were failed in the first task. Now we are currently at the entrance of the forest of death.

"Alright maggots welcome to my home, training ground 44 also known as the forest of... death" - Anko said a got the desired reactions from a few of the gennin which was fear as they should be. Even chunnin can't wander through the forest without getting hurt.

Anko spotted Naruto and noticed he wasn't affected and decided to play a little game. Anko threw a kunai that was going to slightly cut his cheek, however the kunai simply phased through Naruto and hit the ground.

Naruto got a worried look and very quickly in a panic began checking himself with his hands to see if he was in one piece. "Oh good...i'm not a ghost" - Naruto said and smirked when he saw everyone looks of disbelief.

Anko vanished in a blur and appeared behind Naruto with a kunai at his neck. "You seem confident. It kids like you who get killed first" - Anko said pressing her body against his back and licking his cheek.

Hinata's eyebrow twitched was about to juuken the bitch away from Naruto when she saw him smirking. Naruto dissolved into a bunch of black crows that flew away and started circling Anko. The crows flew towards her and quickly turned into shuriken heading to Anko.

"Genjutsu! KAI" - Anko thought and flared her chakra making the shuriken disappear. She looked around a found Naruto not far away smiling at her.

"Genjutsu, not bad brat" - She said "And you don't seem scared of the forest" - Anko stated.

"Meh, those things are nothing compared to the furball" - Naruto said and Anko snickered. He had to have balls to call the kyuubi furball.

"I told you I AM NOT A FURBALL" - Kurama yelled inside his mind.

"Actually you kind of are. You have fur and it's so soft and cuddly" - Naruto squealed in a fan girlish way. Kurama simply sweat dropped and cursed to kami why he had to end up in this vessel.

"Alright brats let me explain how this works. See these" - Anko said and showed everyone two scrolls she had on her hands. "These are the earth and heaven scrolls. Each team gets one. In order to pass this exam you must get the other and reach the tower which is located in the middle of the forest. You have five days" - Anko explained.

"What about food?" - Chouji asked panicking over the fact they would spend 5 days in a forest surrounded by monster.

"You can hunt if you didn't bring any supplies" - Anko said. "Also you need to sign these documents so that Konoha can't be blamed for your deaths" - she concluded and few shivered at the thought. "Oh yes there will be deaths. Just thinking about blood makes me jump for joy" - Anko said in a far too happy tone.

Anko proceeded to distribute the forms and once everyone had signed and got their scroll each team made its way to their respective gate.
