Third Exam P2

*Just a minor heads up, most jutsus from now on are "thought" instead of spoken. I came to that decision a few weeks ago and it makes more sense than the characters actually saying it. There will still be times when they will be said however. *

"Will Sasuke Uchiha and Dosu Kinuta head on down to the arena?" The announcer seemed to ask.

Dosu was the first one down, still wearing his bandages that block half of his face and his two gauntlets that allow him to use sound as an attack.

Sasuke followed soon after, having replaced his usual blue shirt with a black short-sleeved shirt and black shorts as his new outfit. His hair seemed just a tad bit longer.

"The match between Dosu Kinuta and Sasuke Uchiha will now begin!"

Dosu charged forward as swung his right arm, only for Sasuke to not have stood idle and had already made distance between them.

'Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!'

Sasuke breathed out a ball of fire that quickly made its way to Dosu.

'Earth Style: Stone Wall!'

Dosu slammed his hands into the ground before a wall shot upwards, blocking the fireball with a small explosion.

Sasuke followed it up by throwing several shuriken that arc in a path that would have gone around said wall.

A low sound went through the area before the shurikens wobbled before losing their trajectory and either missed the mark completely or collided with each other.

'Fire Style: Fire Flower!'

Sasuke shot out a few waves of fire that curled into themselves, giving them a vague impression of a flower. Each one struck the same area, causing several booms before a figure flew out of the smoke.

It revealed that Dosu was a little singed.

'Lightning Style: Orbs!'

Sasuke, keeping momentum, shot several orbs of lightning forward, each moving pretty quick before striking Dosu, causing him to cry out from the sudden electrocution.

Dosu seemed to growl before he charged him once more.

Sasuke grabbed a kunai from his pouch and waited until Dosu swung again. Sasuke spun to the side before slashing into Dosu's side, causing his side to start to turn red already.

Sasuke suddenly ducked before pushing himself away from Dosu.

Dosu didn't seem to happy that Sasuke had dodged his sound attack before glaring when he saw the reason why.

Sasuke had his Sharingan activated, allowing him to see the chakra from his attack and avoid it.

Unfortunately, he looked into his eyes before he blanked.

------------------------

Sasuke smirked as his clan's genjutsu worked. Whenever one gains the Sharingan, they can use a genjutsu with it that is stronger the more advanced the eye. Since he had the strongest, besides the strange version Suki has, the genjutsu can paralyze the target for a limited amount of time.

Sasuke ran forward and with his kunai, placed it against Dosu's neck.

"He is trapped in a genjutsu so he doesn't know this is even happening." Sasuke told.

After giving Dosu about 5 seconds, the proctor called it.

"The winner of this match is Sasuke Uchiha!"

-----------------------------

"Yeah! I knew he would win!" Naruto exclaimed.

"I was curious how he would deal with the fact that he couldn't really use taijutsu that well against him." Suki commented.

"Would it have been difficult for you to beat him?"

"No for a few reasons. Without my seals, I can move faster than some Jonin so I could have moved fast enough to attack him before he tried his sound attacks. Along side that, I have a variety of clones that could either explode, electrocute, or slash him enough to leave him either dying or dead." Suki listed off, unknowingly, slightly disturbing a civilian family that was unfortunate to be close enough to hear a child talk like that. "However, even you could take him easily. Especially with the wind jutsu and clone combination you've pulled off in your match."

"Will Temari of Sunagakure and Shikamaru Nara come on down?"

------------------

'Man, this fight is going on for a bit.' Suki couldn't help but think.

Their fight has been going on for about half an hour before Shikamaru revealed, through his actions, that he had dragged the match out on purpose so that his range with his Shadow Techniques could go longer.

The Nara clan are known users of the Shadow Style Techniques. They can manipulate shadows to do many things, such as capture, strangle or even kill an enemy.

Suki and the others were watching as slowly, Shikamaru began backing her into a corner, until he finally caught her.

"Yeah! Go Shikamaru!" Ino cheered.

Shikamaru and a, visibly struggling, Temari walked closer to each other before both put up their hands.

"I give up." Shikamaru announced. "Using my Shadow Technique has used up too much of my chakra. I could hold her for at most, 10 more seconds."

The proctor nodded.

"Winner by forfeit is Temari of Sunagakure!"

The crowd was full of mutters, most not understanding how to feel about the match.

However, most of the experienced ninjas could tell that Shikamaru seemed to have the highest chance of becoming a Chunin so far.

"Will-" The proctor started.

Before suddenly, Gaara appeared down on the ground with a Sand Shunshin and Suki appeared via Leaf Shunshin.

Gaara still wore his emotionless face while Suki wore a grin.
