Fight 1 Sasuke Uchiha vs. Kiba inuzuka

"Will the first pair step forward." Hayate requested of the Gennin. Sasuke and Kiba each stepped away from their teams and joined Hayate up at the front. "You two have been chosen for the first official match of the Chunnin Exams. Uchiha Sasuke, Gennin student of Aburame Torune, the Killing Touch Ninja and member of Team 1. The rules are simple, you may use any ninjutsu, taijutsu, or genjutsu in your arsenal to defeat your opponent. Do you have any reason not to fight against Inuzuka Kiba?"

"No." Sasuke said.

"Very good." Hayate said as he then turned to look at the other ninja. "Inuzuka Kiba, gennin student of Yūhi Kurenai, the Mistress of Genjutsu and member of Team 8. The rules are simple you may use any ninjutsu, taijutsu, or genjutsu in your arsenal to defeat your opponent. Do you have any reason not to fight against Uchiha Sasuke?"

"Nothing from me." Kiba returned with a feral grin. "I'm finally going to show you just what I can do Sasuke."

"Are there any objections?" Hayate questioned as he first looked toward the Jonnin instructors and then to the Hokage who each gave nods of acceptance for the fight to continue. "Very well then, let's start." Hayate said as he turned to the crowd. "Everyone except for these two needs to clear out to the upper levels."

Everyone nodded and began moving. As Kakashi walked he paused behind Sasuke for a moment. "I may not be your Sensei Sasuke, but listen to me don't use your sharrigan. If that mark gets out of control your life could be in danger."

"I'm aware of that." Sasuke returned to the Jonnin.

"Just to let you know if it gets to that point I'll have to step in and stop the fight." Kakashi warned the boy.

"You really think you can?" Sasuke sneered at the one eyed man.

"Don't push me Sasuke, Torune may let you get away with those sorts of things, but because you decided to attack my students I'm more than willing to deal with you as quickly and harshly as I may need to. By becoming a threat to my students you have become a threat to my team." Kakashi returned to the Uchiha in a deadly voice that promised no mercy should the boy push him on this. "Don't mistake Peter holding back as weakness either, he was merely being loyal to you as a member of the Hidden Leaf. Next time he might not be so nice about putting you down if he needs to, and if he doesn't then I will. I'd wish you luck, but I'm actually kind of hoping Kiba kicks your ass." He then walked away to join his team leaving a rattled Sasuke behind him. It was worrisome that the Jonnin could bother him as much as he had without using any Killing Intent. He shrugged his worries off though as he focused on Kiba.

"Then if you're ready, let the first match begin." Hayate said as he stepped back.

"It's been a while since it's been just the two of us Sasuke." Kiba said excitedly as he looked the Uchiha over with interest. "It should be interesting to see how far we've both come since our days at the academy."

Sasuke smirked coolly at the other boy. "I told you when we first started this Kiba, don't get overconfident."

"Maybe you should take your own advice." Kiba returned in annoyance as he made a hand sign. The dog at his side seemed to bark in agreement.

"Hey sensei why are they letting the puppy stay in there with him?" Naruto questioned Kakashi who was standing alongside them and watching the match. "Won't it just get hurt in there?"

"If Akamaru was an ordinary dog then most likely he would. However Akamaru is as far from an ordinary dog as you are from a regular person. Akamaru is a part of Kiba's unique clan fighting style though." Kakashi explained to his team who were all listening in. "As a member of the Inuzuka Clan, Kiba is trained to live, work, and fight with Akamaru acting as his partner. In this manner Akamaru is considered as an extension of Kiba and his fighting style or a ninja tool that Kiba can use. Kiba has a very unique fighting style that derives from Akamaru going as far as using jutsu in combination with him as a sort of a catalyst. Watch and see what you can learn from each of their fighting styles."
