"Yes, that's just one of the many quirks of our nameless team!"* Kirai said happily.* "So about those Chunin exams..."

"I'm fine with it if it'll get you to shut up.* Kent remarked.

(Sorry for making poor little Setsy wait.* :P))

"There's Kaguya!"* Kirai greeted.* "Great, we're all here!* What do you guys think of participating in the Chunin exams?"* He said to the whole...

"Did someone say miracles?!"* Kirai jumped from seemingly nowhere next to Alice.* "I don't want to call myself Jesus or anything, but I think I'm pretty good at those."

Kent rolled his eyes.* "Um,...

"Greetings."* Kent greeted.* "Don't worry, you're not alone.* I'm sure sensei will appear out of nowhere and explain everything here pretty soon."

((It's two days later and people are just kinda interacting at this point.))

Kent was sitting in a tree somewhere in the village fighting to keep awake.* "Two days later and we STILL don't have a number for our team..."* He muttered.* "I hope someone to talk to shows up here...

"Yeah."* Kent surpressed a shiver down his spine.* Then he snapped out of it.* "Oh, erm, some tea will be good."* He smiled.

"Sure.* What do you have?"* Kent asked, admiring the inside of the house.*

Ignoring Kaguya, Kent whistled.* "That it is.* I'm impressed."* He nodded approvingly.*

"Yes, indeed."* Kent confirmed.* "After his nap and whatnot."* He looked around.* "You live in the forest?"

"After you."* Kent said, motioning for Alice to go ahead of*him.*

Kent raised an eyebrow.* "Uh, huh.....so I guess it's just me and you, Alice, shall we go?"

"I think I'll pass."* Kirai yawned.* "I'll collect my share of the money and get a short nap.* Meet here in three hours for another mission."* And with that, Kirai had walked into the village and...

Kent nodded approvingly of Alice's whispered scheme, trying to make it look like he was bored.

"I get more pay because I'm a jonin."* Kirai said thankful for a change of subject.* "Besides, I'll...

"Well..."* Kirai said.* "Having them join would make a..."* He counted on his fingers.* "6 man team.* That is way too big of a team if you ask me."

"Yeah, and not to sound rude, but I don't like...

"Smile, guys!"* Kirai said.* "If you look all sullen like that, someone will think you're up to something shady.* What are you up to, anyway?"

*

"Hm, you're right."* Kirai said.* "I'm sure they don't want anything of importance..."*

"I hope not, I do not want to do much else today..."* Kent said.

"Agreed."* Kent said.

"Oh, you'll get over it.* The less people, the more tight knit we'll be."* Kirai said cheerfully.* "And that means better teamwork!"*

"Yeah, good point, and we'll be less...

"I like that idea."* Kent said.* He ddin't know what Alice had in mind, but he had an idea of what he was using the money for.

"Lots and lots of missions, sounds great."* Kirai said.* "By the way,...

Kirai laughed.* "Sure!* And we'll just tell the hokage she's dead or something.* Now, though, we have another matter to attend to."* He clapped Kent's shoulder.* "You okay kid?"*

Kent seemed to...

"Unconventional, but it works!"* Kirai said approvingly.* "Let's get back to the Leaf!"

"We'll go to the Leaf without you."* Kirai threatened.* He turned to go to the Leaf, but hesitated.* "Gah, I can't leave a student behind."* Kirai sighed.* "C'mon guys, to...wherever she's going, I...

"Uh, huh...."* Kirai nodded.**"Kaguya, would you like to head the other way?* That is the way to the leaf village and our cash reward."

"You don't have to like me."* Kirai said.* "It would just be best to trust me.* By the way, we're not done, because..."* He pointed at Kaguya.* *"You got a ninja after you."

Kent continued fighting his ninja before hearing the snap.* He turned to see Alice stepping on her enemy's neck and paused long enough to allow his enemy to stab his lower leg.* Kent grabbed the...
