Drawing another kunai, the pink haired teen pointed one at Sasuke to add effect while keeping the other trained on the grass ninja.

"Your quarrels and scroll do not matter to me! I could simply kill you all and take it!" The grass ninja declared with a creepy tongue flourish.

"Yeah let's see you do it then!" Naruto yelled and charged straight for the snake lady, kunai drawn.

The enemy ninja bit her thumb drawing blood, and rolling up her sleeve to reveal some strange markings imprinted on her skin, wiped her thumb across the markings.

"Summoning Jutsu!" the ninja yelled doing a few quick hand signs.

The same gust of wind that had separated Naruto from his teammates blew once again and the grass ninja was soon standing upon the head of another summoned giant snake.

"Yum, yum! Nothing makes these dumplings go down better than sweet red bean soup!" Anko exclaimed as she ate quietly sitting atop the sentinel's desk outside of the Forrest of Death.

"As soon as I finish my snack I'll see how the kiddies are doing" she said happily taking another big bite of a dumpling.

Suddenly one of the sentinels appeared in a puff of white smoke in front of her. "I'm sorry ma'am but we have a situation" he said in an urgent tone. Anko huffed.

"There are corpses, three corpses!" the sentinel explained.

"Seriously dude? Hello trying to eat here?" Anko said mouth full.

"I think you'll want to see them, there is something very strange about them" the sentinel said before disappearing and leaving Anko to follow him.

"So what's their deal?" Anko asked one of the four sentinels who stood around the corpses.

"Hidden Grass village ninja, registered for the Chunin exams. They weren't just killed either" one responded.

"All their faces are gone as well" Anko observed, a terrified look coming across her face.

"Yeah it's like their faces melted or something" another person commented.

"It's his jutsu, no doubt. Why is he here? What could he possibly want at the Chunin exams?" Anko asked herself, rubbing a spot on the back of her neck.

"Listen up! You need to report exactly what has happened to Lord Hokage. Then you need to tell ANBU Black Ops that we need to convoys in the Forrest of Death stat! I'm going in after these impostors!" the proctor yelled.

"Right!" the sentinels departed immediately.

So you've come to the Hidden Leaf Village, Orochimaru,Anko thought as she entered the Forrest of Death.
