Ares nods his head slowly, he looked forwards to breaking this female during combat, if that was what was going to come up next. Turning on his heel, he began walking forwards towards the two that he had been watched by for quite a while now, it was about time to make them know that he had indeed saw them, and he was curious about their current thoughts on this teaming up idea. Although as he normally worked, Ares did not walk towards the male of the two, instead of walked towards the female, with a slow smile forming across his lips. "Why hello there.. Are you looking for a team?" He says with a sly smile forming across his face, as he looks upon Alice's frame. His very tone spoke towards something a lot different from the team that everyone else was trying to form, after all he was not really ever looking for a team, but instead more followers for his personal religion. What a fun little thing such a search was, and this young female would make a prime addition to his already attractive circle of followers. Ares' cold gray eyes peered directly at her through the dark shades of his sunglasses, as he awaits her response, though he had not joined a team the first time, he had managed to make sure he had others to which he could choose from this time around, and that was good enough for him.

Fushou Seibetsu [Death Swallower]  Feeling accomplished Seibetsu decides to let Asuka in on things. "You can call me Seibetsu. Fushou is away right now because he's useless when it comes to being around strangers. Now," her attention turns to examining those around. She could see and hear the decisions of those around. Groups had begun to form and most were set in stone. The only individuals that hadn't made it clear of who they will be teaming up with were, "Two people. That guy that you seemed to be hitting it off with and another person that I have yet to see. I'm guessing Ares won't want to join us. And that you wouldn't want him to anyway. So we only have one other choice. Might turn out being just the two of us even if we jot down Kamisori Abumi's name," Seibetsu glances at the paper she is carrying a bit annoyed. Why hadn't anyone wanted to team up with her but Asuka? Grimace had people eyeing her left and right and all she could do was fling her arms around and play with her silly bells. Seibetsu could easily top that. And as for the others, well, she would soon see if any of them were anything special.
"I think we'd better just put Kamisori on our list and keep hoping that another alliance will fall apart. Or else we're going to be the underdogs in this exam regardless of if there is a team battle or otherwise. As far as if he wants to team up with us, he really has little other option so he's a sure thing at the very least." The Death Swallower snorts before beginning to alter her list that she'd made.
Team #
1. Seibetsu Fushou
2. Asuka Sinobi
3. Kamisori Abumi
She then notices Asuka read through the rules before posing a question."I'd assume that only the group that winds up without a person listed mutually between them will fail if anything should more than that participant be penalized." She would keep that thought to herself, however. She would rather have the information granted from someone with more authority over the exam. "Perhaps the Proctor can shed some light on that question? And make sure to update your list too~." Seibetsu comments just to show she had heard his question, but would not give an unimportant opinion on it. Ome [Hyuuga], Grimace  Grimace watches Ares leave before turning to her team. She props herself atop the nearest desk and decides that now might be a good opportunity to get a feel for her comrades. She seems to jut sit and stare at the two, her eyes trailing their bodies idly now and then without moving too much to show that she was examining them. She figured they would be able to tell but figured it was less invasive if she didn't have her eyes going up and down their bodies. She takes in their size and stature, adding in her own measurements, before sighing. "I guess we have a team then. As we are now, I am confident that we aren't the type of group that needs to take time outs to discuss strategies. However, do any of you have a useful means of communicating between the three of us?" Grimace's eyes seemed affixed on Shiori, figuring that by the way she made her presence known she might be able to pull something like Grimace inquired off. Her eyes then shift to Nita who she was curious if he also had that capability along with his other ability that he voiced to her. By her asking, she really didn't have much of a means to do so.

 What Seibetsu said about Fushou not being around slightly perturbed Asuka, but he let it slide since he was happy to have a teammate. The girl put out a good point about Kamisori Abumi and their lack of options. "Yeah our options are slightly limited. Lets plan on having Kamisori for now and see how the rest of this situation pans out." Team # 1. Seibetsu Fushou 2. Asuka Sinobi 3. Kamisori Abumi Asuka could tell that Seibetsu was avoiding his concern about the rules earlier, and he could understand. Nobody here was really sure about anything right now in terms of their exams. The cloud genin breathed a sigh of relief as things began winding down in the room. He realized that his teammate and him knew nothing about each other. "So just so you know Seibetsu, I use a lot of lightning and wind elemental jutsus, but I also have some skills with taijutsu and I'm alright with a sword as well. Basically I like to make things up close and personal, but I can handle a ranged fight pretty good as well. What about you? What's your deal?"

 Nita looked towards Grimace with a smile and sent a single word to her and Jiten into their minds. "Somewhat.""It is a bit lacking but single word warnings is what I can do given some rests in between. I should also be able to see our surroundings if I borrow your eyes for a bit. You don't have to do much, just do what you normally do when you activate the Byakugan," said Nita with a smile. "In short, my capabilities only come out when there are allies that can support me nearby, or enemies that let their guard down. You should do well not to learn more than you need about me and where I come from by the way. Things are better left a secret. That goes the same for Ares over there. Even though he believes himself as God, he won't be what he wants to be if he doesn't have any followers."With that, Nita sat down upon a nearby chair and waited for the others to respond to this... Whether it would be advantageous for him or not.

 "Communication? Would this suffice?" Without another word, Shiori pulled out a pair of sheets of paper, and in only instants, folded them into miniature birds. While pretty enough to look at, there had to be more to them than just appearances. And sure enough, they were. The two small paper birds seemed to come to life, flapping their paper wings as they moved to land on either of her partners' shoulders. Passenger pigeons of a sort, these would provide a solid alternative to what Nita's ability seemed to offer. At least, she assumed it was his ability that had seemed to speak directly into her head. That was two solid methods for the three of them to stay in communication with each other, enough to handle most situations. With that inquiry having been dealt with, Shiori took a seat as well, slipping into another of the empty desks littering the room. All that was left to do now was to wait.

Zetsumei After calmly calling for Ares, not aloud due to her being close to him, the other man she would have to call her teammate came next to her. The first words he said was about how great Ares was. "We'll see." She said lowly mostly to herself. Alice didn't even look at Sanosuke as he spoke, and she already knew about what he was efficient in, that's why she chose him. Instead of telling Sanosuke what she was particularly skilled in, she just watched Ares speak to the others. She took in his personality, and knew that nobody would want to team up with him regardless of how strong he was. The godly types were always frowned upon with the others who had "morals", but to someone like Alice, that didn't matter at all. Ares can believe in what he liked, Alice had her own beliefs that she knew nobody else around her was even aware of. But regardless, it may be a little hard, but this team was going to get along whether or not anyone liked it, because if they didn't, they weren't going to pass these exams.
Zetsumei Finally Ares was coming their way, hers a lot more than Sanosuke. Alice could feel him scanning down her figure, and then back at her eyes. Her expression didn't change, her body didn't move, and she was staring him down right back. His eyes couldn't be seen because of his shades, but it was obvious his full attention was on her. The tone of his voice, especially his grin were... questionable, but the question was all the same. "Yes. I am..." She started as if it was only her and not Sanosuke even though she was right next to her. "From what you've experienced from the others, you'll noticed we're more... free. I don't care what you think about me, nor do I care what you believe in. But it's clear that we have the power to pass these exams. If you want to make friends, fine, if not, we'll just deal with each other and go our separate ways after we pass. Interested?" She said keeping a solid, calm voice without changing her expression nor her tone. Maybe Ares would find this as a game, it wouldn't be the first time somebody thought she was just playing "hard to get".

Sanosuke sat on a desk and watched the exchange intently, Alice seemed more than capable of handling the negotiations, should either talk to him he'd answer otherwise silence was his. Silence is the tool that serves a killer best, and for the Kodohma Family he would be an assassin, though he didn't really have the finesse of a real assassin, his sonic attacks made up for that though even if they were a hefty cost to use at times for the more potent effects like loss of sight and dizziness, though dizziness was pretty much them stumbling around cause they can't see so it wasn't a reliable effect. He mainly used that particular jutsu to deafen his opponent then launch a sound lance at them so they can't hear it coming. In that respect he had two options his personal creation or that of his master, obviously his masters was far more sophisticated causing a large line of destruction at not even a fraction of Sano's cost while Sano's sound lance exploded on impact costing significantly more while also being far louder. He noted how more and more people were whittling down as it stood it seemed Ares was stuck with them unless he felt like being a douche and withdrawing from the Exams altogether but Sano knew that was unlikely as despite believing himself a god there were still restrictions placed on him because he was considered Genin, restrictions that this little test would get rid of. A few annoying people wouldn't ruin that for him.

Ares raised an eyebrow slightly, it would seem a lot of these females in this exam were a little more then just hollowed out souls looking for a God, what a pity, although it would be a lot more exciting to be able to break ones with a little more worth to their soul. It ended up making for a much better member of his court, when such a thing happened. "Alright.. Then if such a thing is to happen, our papers will read as follows: One; Ares Kami. Two; Alice Zetsumei. Three: .. That guy over there." Ares says with a slight nod towards the male standing beside Alice, taking on a sort of leader like demeanor, it was rather easy seeing as he was a God and all, used to bossing people around and setting up plans and things like that. He chuckled lightly and extended his right hand upwards towards her with a small smirk on his lips. "If these terms are agreed upon for the both of you, I will join as part of this team, and we shall enter through the next part, and surely finish it without any issue as all. Although if you do not place me as the lead on your own papers.. We are going to have an issue, and I assure you.. Neither of you would have any fun dealing with the issues that will come." He says, his composure taking a more serious tone to it, before he grins suddenly and raises the hand he had extended outwards, in order to cup Alice's chin. "Now I do believe... As teammates we should get a little better.. Acquainted.. Don't you?" He asks, tilting his head forwards slightly in order to reveal his rather cold gray eyes, peering at her over the lenses of his sunglasses.

Zetsumei Figures. She already knew that Ares was going to give such a request. That's why she already changed the listing as Ares was getting rejected by the other genin for his ego. Like it was said before, Alice didn't care. She came here to become a Chunin, and she didn't care if she was going to lead or not considering she's by herself with only one person. Speaking of which Alice wondered what he could be doing right now, but she didn't think about it too much because there were much more important matters to attend to. Sano was keeping quiet during this time, and maybe it was best considering if he said anything it might throw off or even piss off Ares since his full attention was on her. His threats were unnecessary, nor did they phase the Zetsumei Princess at all, they were more annoying than anything. As his hand came to her chin, she still remained her posture and her expression. Alice even let him touch her, and she gazed at his gray eyes with her own crimson ones.
Lightly, as though they've known each other, she grabbed his wrist, took his hand off her chin, and placed her sheet of paper with the team listed as he requested:
Team #
1. Ares kami
2. Alice Zetsumei
3. Sanosuke
"Deal." She said not making it clear that she accepted his request or the him wanting to get "acquainted" with her. But on the piece of paper was the list of their team, showing that she already knew that's what he would want. Alice then let go of his wrist gently letting him take the piece of paper that would now be his. Of course she didn't talk much, that's something the other two were going to have to get used to. Without really giving Ares time to respond, she turned around to get another piece of paper and write down the list of the team, exactly how it needed to be. If Ares wanted to get closer to her, he would have to try a little harder than that. Even though it's damn near impossible to get on her happier side, even Ares had his chance during the exams. That specifically, not meaning anything once the exams were over though.

Sano looked with interest as Ares and Alice spoke, Sano had long filled out his little piece of paper in something he didn't quite know or care what he'd written it in but it didn't matter cause he'd already handed it in to whoever was taking them. Sure it seemed like he had a world of confidence in himself doing something as brash as that but what did he care if it didn't work out... darn. Sano's eyebrows went up slightly as Alice shot Ares down without even saying anything, if he kept trying Sano had a feeling that this test was going to be a bit annoying yet interesting if not downright humorous at times. "Mine was already filled out like that when I submitted it." He said blankly sitting on the desk as his rather unnatural eyes stared at the two of them standing there. Whether he told the truth or not was up for debate but the fact that he seemed disinterested in the subject was apparent.

The ex-platinum haired warrior may have been one of the last if not the last warriors to make it to the recriutment portion of the exams. As far as he knew him and Rosalia were going to team up, making that two out of three people needed to move on with the exams. With the way their situation shined on both of them Reiko was willing to do the tests with Rose by his side. Did they have a higher chance of failing, yes, but could he trust her one hundred percent and vice-versa? Hell yes. The ex-platinum haired warrior stepped into the door where inside the only familar face belonged to his Hidden Cloud partner Rose. The rest of the people that were inside were complete and total strangers to the ex-platinum haired Miyanari warrior. He noticed that she was also talking to another person who may have beeen the one who stuck out like a sore thumb from everyone else. Did Rose choose her as the third teammate of their squad? If so, then hopefully the girl Rose was talking to would have more her sleeve than hankercheifs and electric hand-buzzers.
Team #
1.Seldab, Reiko
2.Laxzi, Rosalia
3.Pillo Payna
Walking over to his teammate, his eye's pupils transformed to a vertical thin pupil, scanning everyone that was inside of the doors; attempting to get a basic feel in terms of power level and other info that he was allowed to receive. His ryuugan eye may have welcomed itself to the ex-platinum haired Miyanari warrior a bit cruel at first but shortly afterwards Reiko managed to tame his new ability. Once he was in range with Rose and the other girl, he introduced himself and apologized for being late. " Hi nice to meet you the name's Reiko. Hey Rose, sorry I'm late. Is this our third member or are we taking this on by ourselves?" he asked, referring to the clown girl. If it was, then that was fine by him and if not that was still okay in his book. What was better than finishing the exams and passing on a two-person squad.

Ares chuckled and took the paper. It would seem the male who, upon reading the paper handed to him, was named Sano. Had been rather confident in who he was going to be teamed up with, what a surprise. Such confidence was something that Ares both took into consideration, and held as an annoyance in his mind. Although since he knew that he needed to hand the paper he held in, Ares held his tongue and nodded to Alice, before turning and walking away with the paper in hand, disposing of it in front of the Proctor without a word, as he then returns back to where he was standing beside his new team in order to await the final results to the first half of this exam.

Clicking his tongue softly, the Exam Proctor leaned forwards in his chair and set a clipboard with some hardly legible words written on them. "Alright then.. I have looked over all your submissions, and I say proudly, if most of you could fail this exam with this part, you would have!" He says with a grin, before shaking his head slowly, he did always love the stunned looks he got when this sort of thing happened. "Most of you failed to realize how a team works. You don't just throw a bunch of names together and hope for the best. When you're in a crisis, and you need to use teamwork. It is always better to have one person to make the plans, and the other's follow.." He says as he pauses and spins the pencil in his hand around his fingers. "Now that of course doesn't mean you're following their every word, but it leads to organization.. What you all have shown here, is something a lot less then acceptable for Shinobi. Not a single one of you revealed any idea towards actually having a leader, or even a basic structure in your team to fall back on. In essence, you created a bunch of groups.. Which was not the instruction. As it stands, I have taken the liberty to group those that had manage even a small bit of structure in their selections. All others were placed together randomly, in an attempt to make the teams even.." He says as he flicks the pencil onto the desk and rises upwards, leaving the sheet on the table for everyone to see. "Take a look at your new teams, and get used to who they are. The next part of the test will be coming soon enough...Oh, and unless it wasn't all too obvious; Kamisori Abumi has not shown up.. I have taken this into account, and we will reward you promptly upon the start of the next exams with a possible advantage that may equal the odds a little for you. That is all, rest while you can and prepare.. The real part of the Exams are about to begin!" he says finally, before turning and walking out of the room.

| Post? | Fushou Seibetsu [Death Swallower] Seibetsu nods to Asuka's agreeing with her on adding Kamisori's name to their lists. The small girl then focuses her eyes on Asuka when he speaks on certain things about him. She assumed he was giving her intel since, unlike him, she didn't have his eyes. but she soon determined that he was both providing social interaction as well simply giving her what information he felt relative to their situation. She wasn't particularly a fan of sharing her secrets, especially with the competition around, but felt it didn't matter this time around. Her abilities would soon come out and many of them probably already had a small inclination of what she may be capable of. She would not tell him everything, and would voice that to him, but would give him information in the same amount as he'd given her. "Well, even though I think that sharing our data in a room with potential opponents is particularly dangerous, it matters very little in this scenario. People have ways of reading us and probably have a feel about our capabilities based on acquired knowledge."
She figures that she would dumb down her vocabular to maintain her child-like facade before going on. "But I like you so I'll tell you some stuff about me and Fushou that you will want to know. Hm. I don't use very many element based attacks at all, Fushou either, but it's a possibility. The same can be said about any form of hand to hand combat. My body may not seem equipped to go into close quarters combat but I can manage well. Fushou likes to keep things long ranged while I prefer to get in close when it's possible. So I guess I am pretty good with all ranges but best with long range given how slow I am compared to the others present." She also had other talents, of which she would reveal when the time was suitable. It was a hand of aces that she would not disclose in case there was need for a surprise on her part.
Her attention turns to the proctor as he comments on the choices of those present. She had been one of the ones who had matched her name with those of her team on the list, and was granted to team she wanted. However, when she notices that Pillo did not get placed with Rosalia and her friend upon strolling over to the proctors desk to view the list, Seibetsu's face grows bit agitated. She had let the clown go so that she could be placed where she wanted and then the proctor puts her somewhere else. She wasn't exactly angry at the proctor, but some form of rage had to bring on her twisted thoughts. "Kill, kill, kill, kill... Cut! Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut!" Her body seems to gradually grow darker in shade and her eyes began to darken at a faster speed. However, one eye would seem to be lit by a strange light. But her form soon reverts to normal when she thinks on things and realizes that Pillo is with a fairly stable group. At the very least a group that would not hinder her. So her rage subsides.Her mind returns to the more pleasant thoughts in her mind. Thinking only of the word 'Mom'.
As it stands, Asuka and herself would be teamed up with this Jiten character, or is it Shiori? She hadn't met this stranger or tried to. It wasn't because she wasn't worth seeking out, but she just didn't seem to notice her. Which wouldn't be outrageous since a lot of people didn't seem to start yelling at the top of their lunges, "THERE'S A PAPER WOMAN FORMING FROM PAPER OVER THERE! LOOK BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!" so she didn't notice amidst her own search for a team and disappointment at Pillo already having been taken. She supposed that she would simply assume that Jiten Shiori was better than a no show and decided that seeking her out would be beneficial. She makes her way over to where Asuka may be standing at this point and declares, "Let's find... Shio~!" She even smiles a little at her partner after deciding that the cuter of the names and one that she could shorten into a nickname is Shiori. Ome [Hyuuga], Grimace "Very useful indeed! The two of you far exceed my expectations as a team up to this point alone. I am very anxious to see what more we can do as a trio!" The Hyuuga seems to let her happier emotions through as she speaks with her team. Her face is rather cheerful, though still holding a tad of the smug appearance it had not long ago.She looks at her paper companion and soon decides to speak to her team more when the proctor interrupts. Grimace turns her head to view the proctor first before shifting her entire body about until facing him. As he mentioned how he wanted the lists to go, she can't help but guess she was included in the lot who did not do as expected. She couldn't help but chuckle on the inside at that. She never was one to do as expected so if that would have been her downfall then she would have to change herself greatly in order to improve for the next exam. She would quickly return to listening as the proctor mentions the team placements. She was certain that, despite the way they may have ordered their lists, that they would still be fine on the same team.
She quickly kicks off of the desk and strides over to the proctors desk. She notices Seibetsu but the girl seemed absorbed by her own thoughts to notice her. no matter. It's not like she wanted to say hello to the child. grimace's eyes trail the paper quickly before her eyes grow large. She reads the paper again and again before crossing her arms beneath her breasts. "Well that just sucks. We go and choose a team and it's altered." She sighs soon after and reads the name of her teammates again. "Who the hell is Sanosuke Kodohma anyway," she asks a bit under her breath. Normally Grimace wouldn't curse since it added very little to her normal statements, however, in a time where she is agitated, annoyed, angry, and so on, she would color her sentences just a hair. She turns around and decides to seek out her team and see if they'd seen the news that they weren't a complete team anymore. She would also need to check in with Nita to see if he knew anything about Sanosuke before they sought him out.

 ♣ P i l l o XXP a n y a ♣
Pillo's left eye twitch as she listened to the exam protector speak. The female was fairly shocked as she listened to the male speak about how to pick teams. He did have a point however she was not use to working with teams. It was an old generation ideal to put genin in teams of three as now a days it was uncommon to see let alone hear about. With a defeated sigh the female walked up to the sheet, eying over the names. When seeing that she wasn't with anyone who she picks or met a disappointed look seemed to cross on her face. ' I hope my own team is fun,.. She thought while eying the names on her team. The first name seemed familiar but the other name was unknown to her. The female took a few steps backwards as she thought around why the first name seemed to familiar. Glancing around the room she eyed a few of the males in the room before finally stopping on Ares. Her eyes grew wide as she realized why she recognized the name. " I'm suck with the pervert god.. " She muttered to herself before taking a small breath and walked over to where Ares was standing. She stopped a few steps away from him, balancing back and forth on her heel as she glanced around the room. She still needed to find the female named Alice. " Ya know who Alice is? "She asked while glancing around the room.
