Sabaku Kankuro is one of three children of the Kazekage. Chosen to uphold the long tradition of Sunagakure Kugutsu, he has taken to the art with passion and skill not seen since Akasuna Sasori.

Assuming Kankuro wasn't an idiot, Ino would go down fast. Of course, Kankuro might be an idiot, he looked rather ridiculous. The young man was wearing a black cat suit and his face was covered in make-up. He looked more like a clown than a shinobi.

Ino looked like a kunoichi thanks to Sakura's intervention. The girls still liked clothes that hugged her budding figure but now they were far more functional. You could see light armor plating now sewn in under the clothes. She still preferred to have color but the dark purple that could be confused for black in the dark was an improvement. Now if only she'd do something about her hair.

"Hajime!" started the fight.

Ino started things out first. "Shintenshin no Jutsu!" Her body dropped her spirit perfectly on target to capture Kankuro if only it was Kankuro. The puppet fell apart on contact with Ino's technique.

Kankuro meanwhile let his hiding place go and frowned at the state of his puppet. He was clearly confused, the puppet was twitching but it wasn't through any action of his.

He looked at the unconscious girl and then proctor who wasn't moving. Then he had to suddenly dodge as one of his puppets traps triggered almost skewering him. He now saw that one of Karasu's eyes was directed at him, following him even, it was really creepy. Kankuro looked again between the puppet and the girl's body when he suddenly figured out was happened.

"Holy shit, you put yourself into my puppet!" he exclaimed and had to dodge another of his puppets traps. "Yeah, it's harder than it looks to control you stupid bitch." He had to start dodging again as Ino seemed to be gaining more control. Finally he decided to target the body, running to it and picking it up, holding a kunai to her throat. "Surrender or you die."

The puppet shook a few times before going limp.

The body Kankuro was holding hostage seemingly sprung to life, being careful not to move given the kunai pointing at her carotid artery.

"I surrender," she said, not hesitating even a second.

"Winner, Sabaku Kankuro!"

Kankuro released her but not before he gave her a little squeeze. He never saw the punch coming that knocked him out.

"Get fresh with me will you?" howled Ino, kicking the downed boy repeatedly. She finally had to be pulled off by Asuma.

"Idiot," groused Baki, retrieving Kankuro and his puppet, carrying both out to join Temari in the infirmary.

"Don't you think that was a bit much, Ino?" asked Chouji, a slight quaver in his voice.

Ino didn't respond but definitely gave him and every male present the stink eye.

Karin vs Haruno Sakura

"Ooh, now this should be a good fight," chirped Naruto excitedly.

Name: Haruno Sakura

Title: Genin (+10 increase to experience gain)

Level: LV26 Next Level: 7.14%

Affiliation: Konoha

HP: 970/970

CP: 720/720

STR: 31

VIT: 97

DEX: 44

INT: 288

WIS: 412

LUK: 8

DEF: 100

SPD: 42

Status: Perfect Control (+15 WIS per level, -50% cost to all jutsu), Medic (-25% cost to iryojutsu, +25% healing to iryojutsu), Book Smart (+10 INT per level, -75% CP, +25% increase to skill experience).

Haruno Sakura is the smartest student in class. Though very intelligent she is not very physically gifted. After becoming a Genin and being forced to face certain realities she done some significant growing up starting with putting away the silly and childish crush on Sasuke. The question remains whether or not she can repair the relationships in her life she has damaged as a result of her Fangirlism.

They were pretty evenly matched, it would come down to techniques and strategy to see who was stronger.

"No bets," called Naruto, this was a match he was unwilling to gamble on. One of the fighters was family and the other his teammate.

"So, are you Naruto-kun's girlfriend?" asked Karin bluntly, as she stood across from Sakura.

"Hell no!"

"No need to me mean about it," whined Naruto from the balcony.

"Is he gay?" asked Karin.

"What the hell?" screamed Naruto.

"I'm pretty sure he's not," said Sakura, embarrassed for her teammate. She would be mortified to be related to such a strange girl.

"Are you gay?"

"What is wrong with you?"

"What? It's a fair question," she answered with a shrug. "So . . . are you?"

"No, I'm not gay."

"Oh, so why aren't you dating Naruto-kun?"

"I like someone else but beyond that Naruto is a friend, that's all."
