"Aika!" Naruto shouts from the kitchen "Haruto!"

Haruto walks into the room already dressed and ready, he yawns as he looks at Naruto "what are you shouting about?"

"The Chunin exams are today!" Naruto shouts excitedly "we can't be late"

"yeah and we won't be late, we still got time to get there" Haruto tells him

"But Aika's still sleeping" Naruto tells him as he gets pocky out of the cabinet

"Again" Haruto pacepalms

The two male ninja walk into the bedroom to see Aika laying halfway off the bed, asleep.

"Aika" Haruto shakes her "Aika wake up!"

"no" Aika turns over and hugs her pillow

"But the Chunin exams are today" Naruto whines "we gotta go"

"It starts at 3" Aika mutters

"It's 2pm!" Naruto shouts "We all slept in for extra energy, but we gotta go now"

"Noooo" Aika whines and burries her head in her pillow

"Come on Aika" Haruto sighs and rubs the back of his neck "geez, how are we gonna get her up?"

"Oh I know" Naruto smiles and kneels down next to the bed "Princess" he rubs her head "it's time to wake up your highness"

"huh?" Haruto stares at them confused

Aika opens one of her eyes "hm?"

"It's time to wake up princess, I got your pocky all set and we got to get going working on today's agenda" Naruto grins happily

"Oh alright" Aika sighs as she sits up in bed and rubs her eyes

"great, we'll be outside while you get ready" Naruto stands up

Naruto and Haruto walk out of the room so Aika could get ready. Haruto stares at Naruto with a curious look on his face as they stand in the kitchen.

"What?" Naruto looks at him

"Why'd you call her princess and say all that stuff.. it's a bit strange" Haruto asks confused

"Oh, while me and Aika grew up as orphans, all we had was each other" Naruto leans against the counter "We had just started school, and a lot of boys used to pick on her. She would cry while I ran over and beat them up. Aika was more sensitive then me and worried about me fighting so I always told her we were playing a game. 

I told her she was the princess and I was her knight, as long as she listened to me as her big brother, I would always protect her" Naruto smiles sadly "and growing up I guess it just became a thing we did, if I asked her to do something she'd do it, as long as I called her princess. After awhile Sasuke started doing it too, and I guess she gained another knight"

"Naruto.." Haruto looks sad "I-"

"But I guess she also just loves the nickname Princess" Naruto smiles "she's one strange little girl"

"...yeah" Haruto agrees

"I'm ready" Aika walks out of her room in her ninja gi with her hair down

"Ah, you forgot your pigtails" Naruto points out

"Oh" Aika looks in the mirror "I guess so"

"Here I got it" Haruto offers walking over

Aika watches Haruto as he takes ties and puts her hair in their normal pigtails.

"thank you.." Aika says before walking to Naruto and taking her pocky from him "alright boys" Aika puts a pocky in her mouth "let's head out and kick some ass!"

"Right!" Naruto and Haruto shout excitedly

-

The three met up with Sakura and Sasuke at the destination and entered but saw a group of people with two guys in front. A girl with her hair in buns was on the ground with another boy. 

"The lives of your squad members is in your hands.. You better be tough enough. Delicate little girls don't belong here." one guy says

"You won't pass anyways. Go home and play with your dolls!" the other guy with him adds

"Real nice speech" Haruto says as the group walks forward

"Both of you step aside and let me through and while you're at, reverse the genjutsu" Sasuke steps forward "We can see through your illusion. Anyways, we're going to the third floor." 

"You've noticed the genjutsu huh?"

"Go ahead, tell them Sakura" Aika looks at her "I'm sure you saw it before anyone else did. You have the sharpest eyes and analyzing skills. You must of seen this coming from a mile away."

"Well sure of course! This is only the second floor" Sakura smiles and the genjutsu was reversed

"Let's see you deal with this!" One of the guys was about to kick at them

Sasuke was going to block it but a guy stopped them both. He had a bowl hair cut, wore a green suit and had the weirdest eyebrows. A boy with brown hair and pupil-less eyes stepped towards him with the bun girl.

"You said to keep a low profile"

"I know but.." The boy looked at Sakura and Aika, he walked over. "My name is Rock Lee. You are Sakura right? Please be my girlfriend! I vow to protect you with my life!" He gave a toothy grin

"No, you're a weirdo" He deadpanned at Sakura's response 

Lee looked at Aika hopefully but Sasuke stepped in front of her.

"Don't even think about it" Sasuke glares at him

"Ooo, looks like Batman like Ai" Haruto whispers to Naruto

"hahaha" Naruto laughs then stops "wait.."

"What's your name?" The boy asks Sasuke, glaring at him

"It's common courtesy to give your own name before asking someone else" Sasuke crosses his arms

"You're a rookie aren't you? How old are you?" Lee asks determined

"I don't have to answer that" Sasuke replies as he takes Aika's wrist

"What's that?" Lee started to get angry but Sasuke ignored him

"Let's go" Sasuke says to the group as he walks away, pulling Aika with him

"Sasuke you didn't have to step in like that" Aika mutters "I could've handled it"

"yeah right" Sasuke says annoyed "you probably would've said yes to not hurt his feelings"

"Sasuke you meanie" Aika pouts "I couldn't do that even if I wanted to"

"Hm?" Sasuke glances at her

"I'm already taken remember" Aika smirks glancing at him "what was it you said the other day? Don't touch your girl?"

Sasuke's face turns a bit red and he flicks her forehead "I-idiot"

"hehe" Aika chuckles "I still remember that"

"It was a poor choice of words" Sasuke argues

"mhm" Aika snickers

"It was!" Sasuke shouts

"You know I hate him but I kinda ship it" Haruto mumbles

"What?!" Naruto shouts shocked "no"

"yes" Haruto smirks

"Hey you! With the attitude! Hold on!" 

The group turns around to see Rock Lee standing there.

"I want to fight.." He looked at Sasuke. "Right here and right now. My name is Rock Lee. You said it was common courtesy for the challenger to give his name first, right? Sasuke Uchiha.."

"So you do know me?" Sasuke questions

"I challenged you. Everyone is always talking about the Uchiha Clan and how great they are. I want to see if its true. I figure you test it for me. And also.." Lee again looks at Aika and Sakura. "Oh Sakura.. I can't choose between you or Aika.. I'm so torn!"

Aika hides behind Naruto and Haruto nervously.

"Stop being a creep!" Sakura shouts

"You, Sakura, are bursting with youthful energy and Aika is an angel!" Lee winks

Sasuke steps forward "You've heard about the Uchiha Clan yet you're challenging me? You must be even more psycho then you look, if that's possible. If you want to know more about my clan, I'll teach you.. the hard way"

"Sasuke" Aika steps out from behind her brother and Haruto "we don't have time for this"

Sasuke turns towards her and rubs her head "this'll be quick, don't worry"

Aika's face turns red and she looks down embarrassed

"You have no chance against. Your skills are inferior." Lee states, looking at Sasuke "You see, out of all the top genin, I am the best. I will prove it you."

"This will be fun. Let's do it." Sasuke turns to face him "This will be all over in five seconds."

 Sasuke heads towards Lee and tries to punch him, Lee quickly moves out of the way.

"Leaf Hurricane!" Lee actually landed a kick on Sasuke's face.

"Sasuke!" Sakura and Aika shouts as he fell to the ground. 

When Sasuke looked up, he had activated his Sharingan. He headed towards Lee again but he used an upwards kick on him. They started exchanging hits at each other but Sasuke was loosing. 

Lee kicked him up again, went underneath him and started wrapping his arm bandages but before he could continue, he was stopped by a large turtle.  Sasuke fell to the ground and Aika ran over to him.

"That last technique is forbidden!"

"I am sorry. I didn't mean to.. I was not planning to use it. I was in the middle of a fight and I mean.. you understand-"

"Hey! That weird thing he's talking to is a turtle, right? That means Turtles can be Senseis too!" Naruto points out. 

Aika looks at her big brother "I guess so?"

"You're a disgrace! You think you can get away with lame excuses like that?! A shinobi never reveals his techniques unless it is needed! It's such a basic rule, you should know it by now!" The turtle chided. Lee lowly apologized, slumping. "Are you prepared to take the punishment for your actions?!"

"Yes Sir.."

"Alright then, please come out.. Guy-Sensei!" On top of its shell, smoke puffed and once the smoke cleared, a guy in green tights stood in a very strange pose.

"Hey! What's shaking?! How you doing, everybody?!"

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Sakura and Naruto yell

"He's got the biggest eyebrows yet! They're almost alive!" Haruto shouts

"Do not insult Guy-Sensei! He's one of the greatest sensei in the entire world!" Lee shouted but then Guy punched him in the face

They also started hugging and crying.

"this.." Aika looks at Sasuke

"Nope" Sasuke turns around "let's go"

"Hey Sasuke!" Lee calls out and they face him "The strongest genin is on my team. You're just practice. Now you are a target and I will crush you. Consider yourself warned" with that he left

"Looks like the Uchiha's aren't so great like everybody thinks they are" Naruto mutters

"Shut up!" Sasuke looks annoyed "Next time, I'll drive him to his knees."

Aika giggles "yes you will"

"Hey I mean it!" Sasuke looks at her

"If it's you Sasuke" Aika smiles "I know you will"

Sasuke turns away and smiles "The Chunnin Exams.. This thing is starting to get interesting. Can't wait to see what happens next. Let's get started, Naruto! Aika! Sakura!"

"Hey I'm here too" Haruto comments

"and I'm talking to my team" Sasuke glares at him

Aika starts laughing and the group looks at her strangely.

"What are you laughing about Ai?" Haruto asks

"I'm just so.." Aika smirks "excited!"
