Winter Ookami Never Fails

I wrote this special for the amazing Infinitely_Eternal, thank you for the wonderful idea. 

For the purpose of this special, Sauske Uchiha returned to Kohona after killing Itachi Uchiha and was put on probation for six months before finally being reinstated as a ninja. The original Team Seven was put back together.

This special takes places in the rebuilt Storm Village a few weeks after the Storm and Leaf Villages make an alliance, and the war hasn't happened, nor is it anywhere close to starting. This special will have two parts. 

Enjoy. xx

Winter Ookami Never Fails

Contest Special : Part One

Winter was bored. She stood underneath the shade of a great oak tree, watching Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki beat the shit out of each other, a sleepy feeling being cast over her. The sun beat down on the clearing that was surrounded by tall trees, all nearly identical to the one she leaned against.

It had been Emiko's idea to create a miniature tournament between the visiting shinobi and the Originals, which proved to be quite a popular hit amongst the two visiting teams.

Team Seven— Kakashi Hatake, Sakura Haruno, Naruto Uzumaki, and Sasuke Uchiha —were quick to agree to the prospect of friendly sparring against the village they had created a new alliance with. Though really all it took with the possibility that Naruto might be able to fight Sasuke, and the blonde managed to convince everyone within a half hour to participate. The other team that had been visiting was Team Guy— Might Guy, Rock Lee, Tenten, and Neji Hyuga —had also agreed to participate, seeing how half of that team was obsessed with competitions, and the other half were interested to test their strength.

How the competition worked was quite easy; the first round your opponent was chosen by luck of the draw, the second round you waited for you name to be drawn and then you challenged someone who made it through to the second round as well. The third round, well Emiko said she'd explain how that worked when they got there.

So far the fights had been pretty entertaining to say the least.

Aexstra had barely beat Tenten.

Neji had made quick work of the nervous Eien.

Guy had screeched a victory cry after he defeated Daiki (who'd received a smack on the back of his head by Emiko, who knew just like the other Originals, that he really didn't try because he thought that the competition was a waste of time).

Rock Lee had been knocked out by Winter herself after he tried to get her to put on a green, spandex suit, that was identical to the one he wore daily.

Kakashi obliterated poor Kishi after he accidentally shredded his signed copy of Icha Icha Paradise.

Sasuke had nearly lost to the misleading voice of Sairen, but eventually he won as well.

Naruto had a tough battle with the airborne Kuki, and finally brought the winged girl to the ground with his use of a Shadow Clone ladder.

Sakura had the advantage of superior strength compared to Ja'far (not that he would ever admit it), but he'd spent years in an unforgiving environment, and his experience was vastly greater than hers. In the end the veteran of fighting brought down the pink haired girl.

Seeing how the fights had started rather early in the morning, which made Winter grumble because she'd much rather prefer to sleep in then go fight when she didn't have to, Emiko had given everyone a four hour break which was enough time for all of them to regain any chakra they might've used and also to insure they wouldn't be tired. To be honest, none of the first fights were particularly exhausting, just lengthy. And in Winter's case, it had been a full on taijutsu battle. She knew she could've used any jutsu to swiftly beat Lee, but she wanted to see how long she could last against the taijutsu powerhouse. She was lucky that she was as fast as she was, otherwise she'd never beaten Lee.
