hey new story my first M rated story lol this will be a dark and unpleasant experience for the ninja lol enjoy plz review!


"We have received word of a possible rogue ninja hiding out in the ruins of an abandoned village outside Konoha," a blonde woman with a very large bust explained, her assistant pointing to an area on the map.

"My mission is to take them out?" a brunette girl replied, her hair tied in two familiar buns.

"Only if necessary," the older woman sighed, folding her hands and placing her head on them. "You are currently one of the few Shinobi who are available for missions. We've received many requests and this one is urgent. Your mission is to observe and keep an eye on your target, I expect you to send me word of your findings within the next three days. I will contact you with your next order, which will either be to attack or wait for backup. Use this scroll to contact me."

"Hai, Tsunade-sama," the girl bowed, taking the scroll in her hand.

"You are to leave straight away, pack up your gear and leave. Try not to speak with anyone on your way out, I want this as secret as possible."

"Understood." The girl turned to leave.

"And Tenten?" The girl stop before opening the door.

"Hai?"

"If you do talk to anyone, do not give any specifics on your mission. Not even Neji," Tsunade ordered grimly.

Tenten gripped the door's handle before daring to say her thought. "May I ask why?"

"This is a top secret mission, it could mean vital Konoha information is on the line. We believe that the rogue ninja may have stolen some intel from us. This is, in fact, an S-ranked mission, worthy of Anbu recognition. Do not take this lightly, proceed with as much caution as though you are a member of the Anbu."

She understood, nodding as she left. This was her chance to prove herself.

"Tsunade-sama, should she really be doing this on her own?" the young assistant questioned, holding Tsunade's pet pig.

"There are no Anbu who are here and/or able to complete this mission. Tenten is the best we have, you need to have faith in her, Shizune." Tsunade took a sip of her sake.

"I do, but shouldn't you at least send Neji with her?"

"Neji just came back from a mission late last night, it would be cruel if I send him on another. Especially one of this rank." Tsunade sighed, opening up the file. "I already had it planned that once Tenten sends us word of what's going on, Neji would be her backup. Not to mention, Tenten's a Jonin now, she can handle this type of mission. It will look good on her record."

"Alright, if you say so," Shizune reluctantly agreed, looking out the window seeing Tenten go on her way.


Tenten found her teammate meditating in the training grounds. As usual. She had packed her things was making her final goodbyes, having already said them to her sister-in-law, nephews and adoptive siblings. "Hn?" came the reply Tenten was all too used to hearing.

"Hey, Neji," she replied, smiling. He turned around.

"You have a mission?" he inquired, noticing her pack.

"Hai, I should be back in a few days, seems kind of short for an S-rank mission," Tenten muttered the last part under her breath in slight annoyance.

This caught the Hyuga Prodigy's attention. He knew, maybe better than anyone, that a short S-rank mission was far more dangerous than that of a longer one. "S-rank?"

"Huh? Hai. I better get going, see you later, Neji." Tenten turned to leave hearing her friend's goodbye.

"Good luck. Take care of yourself."


Swiftly jumping from trees and dodging branches, Tenten gradually made her way toward the abandoned town. Her friend's words looming in her head. That was one of the few times she had ever heard him remind her to be careful, at least when it came to missions they were not together on. No, this wasn't the time to ponder all this, she had a mission, her thoughts could wait.

The town was not very far, Tenten knew she was around the outskirts in no time. Hiding her only bag behind a bush nearby her soon to be campsite, she made her way to her first solo S-rank mission.

The village was empty all right, not a soul around, or so it seemed. The rogue ninja had to be somewhere, she was really wishing that Neji had come along, or had taken the mission himself, this would have been done faster. No, what was she thinking? He had only come home from another S-rank mission the night before, with some injuries to prove it. Sure it was nothing the Hyuga couldn't handle and would be training within a day, but still. She shouldn't be thinking like that, she knew he needed rest.

With stealth and the cover of shadows from the setting sun on the trees, Tenten made her rounds around the town. Subtly checking as many of the abandoned homes and establishments as physically possible without making her presence known. Just where could this guy be?

Her search had finally come to an end, as she was finally covered in the shadows of the night, a full moon being her only guide. The smell of a fire, either being used for warmth or light, she didn't care, it was a sign. The rumors were true! There really was a rogue ninja hiding in this village!

Tenten managed to get as close as she could to the once empty house. The fire inside, used for light she was certain, made only a single lone figure apparent. There was no talking, and whoever it was in there hadn't noticed the young Kunoichi's presence, she wasn't about to push her luck. She was already treading dangerous waters, she could come back and gather more information later.

Quieter and slyer than any cat would ever be able to accomplish, Tenten left the seen without a sound. She could make camp and start her report to Tsunade, things were going smoothly.

Although something a the pit of her stomach told her things were far too easy, if she was going to continue this streak, it was best for her to stay out of the town for a day and come back and gather more information later, to make sure no suspicion was raised.


In Konoha, Neji was giving Tsunade his report from his latest mission. "I trust things went according to plan?" the Hokage inquired, quickly flipping through the file.

"Hn," came the usual reply.

"How about your wounds? What did the medics say?"

"I'll be fine, just a few scrapes. I'll be able to return to training and missions tomorrow."

"I see…" The Hokage took a sip of her tea.

"Hokage-sama, I would like to inquire about Tenten's most recent mission."

This caught the busty woman off guard, yet she was expecting it all the same. She placed her cup down and gave a deep sigh. "Neji, you know I'm not exactly supposed to give details of missions, especially those of S-rank."

"That is what I want to ask you about." Neji paused as Tsunade beckoned him to continue. "Why did you have her go alone?"

"Doubting you're partner's abilities?" Tsunade teased.

"I'm simply worried for her safety." Neji retorted emotionlessly.

Tsunade would have given an embarrassing retort to the Hyuga, but the air suddenly went rigid.

As she reached for her cup, a crack appeared. Only a second later, the cup tipped over the edge of the desk and fell to the floor. Shattering in an instant.

Neji's body tensed. No, it couldn't be. An omen?


Tenten was at her camp site, writing up her report to send to Tsunade. It was a cool night, with a quiet atmosphere. Too quite.

A fuma shuriken came flying into the site with a whistle. Tenten managed to escape it and pull out her scroll, awaiting her attacker to show himself.

Just as she thought, it had to be the rogue ninja from the small town, but she wasn't ready for the face she met with.

"You-?" Tenten was cut off as the eyes that she could recognize anywhere revealed themselves in the moonlight.

"Never thought Tenten would be the one chasing me…"
