Chapter 1
AN: HI! ME AGAIN! I've written so many stories in my agenta and I'm DEING to post'em all, so I'm gonna have A LOT of stories started and am gonna update the one's that you like the most! SO ENJOY :D
I was in Tsunade's office waiting for her to rage out in exhasperation and give me detention for I have NO IDEA HOW LONG! Yeah, Yeah I did somethin' bad, sue me why don'tcha?(-insert roll of eyes here-)Although I do not consider playing rock music during class THAT BAD. Of course I should mention that it was broadcasted through out the entire school and that I might have told the teachers that it was a day off, so it was a little bit of... I don't know: MAYHEM, but it was SSOOO FUNNY. Someone even started a fire in the girl's bathroom and the sprinklers poured water EVERYWHERE and this meant that all the girl's shirts turned SEE-THROUGH! It was PRICELESS! But now I have to pay for it. As if I was the one who designed the school uniform and made it sooo... R-RATED. Anyway here comes Tsunade and she doesn't look like she's in a forgiving move.
"TENTEN THIS IS THE LAST STRAW!" she screamed in face while flopping down in her chair looking for another bottle of sake... yup I was sip and she's at it again, screaming at me that is.
"DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH EXPLAINING AND BRIBING I'LL HAVE TO DO TO CLEAR THIS MESS UP!" she spit in my face and I swear some of it ended up on my new boots which I held crossed over her desk and may I just say:
I'm ROCKING these boots. To top it of I wore a long black T which said DON'T MESS WITH THIS CHICK! under a blue jean jacket with different band pins on it, tight black skinny jeans and my fav. SCORPIONS cap. All in all I looked pretty bad-ass, the kind you see in movies or principal offices which fits this situation perfectly, don't you think?
"OOHHH COME ON! You can't possibly tell me that the guy wasn't easy to bribe. You just throw him a new GUCCI wig from one of those street sellers and there's no way he ain't gonna agree to your terms, heck you could even get a good word out of him with the right merchandise." That last one I said while rubbing two fingers together in the universal sign for money, but apparently Tsunade didn't see it my way 'cause she started yelling again. Geez what's with this woman it's like there's no moment of sanity or silence around her.
"TENTEN, I HAD ENOUGH!" she slammed the desk almost breaking it, ok I was OFFICIALLY FREAKED! But before I could retort she sat back down and put on a serious face completely changing the mood.
"I've been considering this for some time now, but have been avoiding the subject because I didn't think you were sutibal for the job, however... she paused again sending chills down my back. Seriously, what's her today? Where does she think she is, in some police movie or somethin'?
The way you have been acting lately has shown me that your not only most capable of handling this job, but that you deserve it as well... At this she gave me a crooked smirk and continued: as a punishment, that is."
To say that I was getting more freaked would be an understatement! What EXACTLY does the hag plan on doing to me? What job? What punishment? And most importantly WHAT THE HELL DID I DO SO BAD THAT THIS HAG IS MENTALLY KILLING ME HERE IN THIS SUSPENCE?While I was apparently falling in the hag's trap she took another shot at her sake and spoke the words that completely ruined my train of thought.
"I'm assigning you to child care."
Excuse me WHAT? CHILD CARE?
"CHILD CARE?" I slammed both hands on her desk, man that must be some solid material if it didn't break by now, but I was too caught up in my 'punishment'.
"HOW IS PUTTING ME ON CHILD CARE DUTY GONNA SOLVE ANYTHING?Apart from the fact that it's CHILD CRUELTY for both me and the kid, do you really want that kid to end up like ME, which now that I think about it, wouldn't be so bad." I flipped some loose hair over my shoulder to emphasize my point and continued
"He could be my sidekick, ay Tsunade?"
At this she visibly tensed, but answered nonetheless
"I have taken that into consideration, however I'm willing to take that risk because..., she paused obviously thinking it through. I kinda felt insulted, I mean, I know I'm not the best at taking care of things, especially people, but that doesn't mean I CAN'T just look at ME! I turned out pretty great actually. I couldn't help, but smile approvingly at myself and just then as if I had the WORST OF LUCK, which I really think I do, Tsunade finished:
... because I care about your well-being"
I fell anime style, but recovered quickly and yelled
"OK BLONDIE! SPILL IT! HOW MUCH DID THEY PAY YOU?" No matter how angry I was I couldn't help but smirk at the hag's sudden change in , DON'T YOU JUST LOVE IT WHEN THE KID OVER POWERS THE POWER AND MAKES IT QAUER! Well... I SURE DO! And Tsunade's current face was PRICELESS!
After that sudden accusation Tsunade immediately flustered and started blabbering
"Wh-wha-tever gave you that idea, I would NEVER! To think...? T-tenten, how could you say something like that!"
"Fine I'll do it... Not like I have a choice
.. BUT what's in it for me?
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN? THIS IS YOU PUNISHMENT!" The woman crossed her arms and gave me a skeptical look.
"Surely you don't think that I'll simply go along with your little scheme, I let the words roll of my tongue and gave her an amused smirk, do you?"
"Well..." I didn't let her finish because in a flash I stood up from my seat and sat crossed legged on her desk looking her straight in the eyes and with a small giggle reminded her that...
"I'm not just the slyest woman in Konoha, but also..."
Again I disappeared and reappeared behind Lady Tsunade, holding a kunai at her throat and muttered the words I am most proud of:
"The Weapon's Mistress of Konoha" Tsunade on the other hand didn't seem fazed by this at all. On the contrary she smirked that all-knowing-smirk and stood there calmly, lost in thought then with a small laugh stated
"You know this is one of the reasons I assigned you this child..., she gestured to the position we were in then continued
You are strong, independent, sly and most importantly you don't take shit from anyone. You're stunts only emphasize my point further. The child I'm assigning you to is the Hyuga Household's youngest prodigy, however she is also the snotty brat type and I need you to rub off that attitude of yours on her. Show her that money isn't everything and that daddy won't always be there to pay or protect."
I was speechless. Never before have I been complimented on my attitude. Far from it, I was rejected, beaten even neglected. To say this took me by surprise would be an understatement. Tsunade wanted me to influence a snotty kid and teach her how to act. It all sounded RIDICULOUS, ABSOLUTELY PREPASTOROUS! Then why did I retreave my kunai and nod weakly at Tsunade? Well... DON'T ASK ME! I SURE AS HELL DON'T KNOW!
Funny thing is I did't realise what I had gotten myself into until a heavy file hit me STRAIGHT IN THE FACE! Almost making me trip! !THAT SHIT WAS HEAVY! And I bet I know who the pitcher was. I glared at Tsunade, but to no avail. She kept rambling about my mission
"Great this is all you need to know for the mission and how to approach it, you'll appear in front of the Hyuga Household tomorrow morning at 7 a.m. SHARP and don't forget to pack a lot of spare clothing 'cause you'll be stayin' there for quite some time. Understood?"
I didn't even get to answer 'cause she was already pushing me out the door. "OK, so you'll have a lot of packing to do and don't forget DECENT cloths. Anyway I have a lot to do as well, so OUT!" She slammed the door behind me and I sweat dropped. Suddenly I regreted giving into her sweet talk. Something tells me, that whole monologue was all part of her evil, twisted little plan and I strolled right into it. MAN, I GOT TO UP MY GAME!
AN:How was it?The next one is gonna be in Neji's POV!
