Hey everyone! Andra here. First story on this account! I've got two other accounts, but this one is for my requests, mainly. Okay! First story is a request from my friend Hikari. Here's the full summary:

After completely ruining a mission, Hinata and Sasuke are bound together with chakra strings and forced to stay together for a whole week. Can Sasuke get over his initial dislike? And can Hinata manage to stop being so shy and stand up for herself?

Pairing: SasukeXHinata

Rating: T

Genre: Romance, Humor, Action/Adventure

Warnings: Swearing, partial OOC-ness

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto because I'm kind of not Kishimoto. If I did, Haku and Zabuza would still be alive /3.

Another note, I am aware that this is an extremely weird pairing, but this is for a friend. Unless I'm 100 against the pairing, I will take requests for just about anything. :: Shrug :: If you flame this because you don't like the pairing, then you fail at life.

"Hinata! What are you doing?!"

They cry came from the onyx eyed shinobi behind the poor Hyûga girl. She ducked and then activated her Byakugan again, having been too afraid to leave it on previously. She ducked again, and moved her hand up, slamming her palm into the offending shinobi's arm. He gasped out and then swung at her with his other arm. As she brawled with him, the Uchiha behind her formed hand seals and then put his hand by his mouth, Sharingan eyes now activated and glaring at the man.

"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu!" he yelled. A giant fireball exploded from his mouth and hurled toward the Iwa shinobi. The shinobi cursed and dove to the side, the fireball sailing harmlessly over his head. After a quick Shunshin, the Iwa shinobi was behind Sasuke, his foot planted firmly on the Uchiha's back, shoving him to the ground.

"Shit," Sasuke muttered, growling lightly.

"Oi! Little girl! Give us the scroll, or your friend here dies!"

Hinata gasped and turned, the Iwa shinobi she was fighting taking the chance to grab her, one arm hanging limply to his side. Hinata froze, watching as the man knelt down and putting a chakra-restraining device on Sasuke's arm. She looked down and reached into her pouch.

"Hinata! Don't you dare!" Sasuke snapped, his eyes blazing furiously at her as his Sharingan was deactivated. Hinata's head snapped up and she gasped, looking at him. She opened her mouth to speak, but then she closed her mouth and ignored him, pulling out the scroll and giving it to the Iwa shinobi by her.

"Such a good girl," the man behind her smirked, then they both disappeared. Sasuke stood up, yanking the device off of his arm and throwing it with all his might at Hinata, who ducked to avoid getting hit.

"Why the hell did you do that?! Do you realize that Konoha's alliance with Suna could be completely destroyed now?!" he snapped. Hinata just stayed down, holding her head. Sasuke growled in frustration and then disappeared, leaving Hinata there as he went to tell Tsunade of their mission.

"WHAT HAPPENED?!"

The angered yell of the Hokage could be heard practically echoing through Konoha. Hinata cowered in front of Tsunade and Sasuke stood there stoically.

"I… I…"

"Hush! I don't want to hear your excuses. That scroll holds vital information meant only for Gaara's hands! Seeing as the two of you are too incompetent to get it there in the first place, I'll send someone else to retrieve it and then give it to him. Now, get the hell out of my sight until I can think of something else for the two of you. Don't even think that you're getting away without a punishment. I'll call you back when I think of something."

"Hokage-sama, what the fu-"

"Sasuke! OUT!"

Sasuke's fist slammed into the tree in sheer rage. How dare she get him into trouble?! If it would have been him, they could have killed Hinata for all he cared. He knew how valuable that scroll was for Konoha. Why did she have to go and fuck up their mission because of her damned morals? That guy couldn't have killed him anyway.

"Damnit!"

Sasuke launched another fist at the tree, his rage causing another dent. Bark flew around him and he shook his fist, ignoring his bleeding knuckles. His chakra still hadn't completely come back after that asshole Iwa nin put the restraining device on him. His onyx eyes glared at the tree. Damn, that pissed him off.

His rage was redirected as he caught sight of a bird in the air. The hawk circled above him and let out a high pitch screech. Sasuke glared slightly at the hawk before he took off toward the Hokage's office.

The Hyûga girl sat in a small café in Konoha, head in her hands. She knew she messed up, but she couldn't help it. She didn't think Sauske's life – Sasuke! Naruto's best friend, now that they had gotten over their differences – was worth some stupid scroll. Shows how much she messed up.

"Excuse me?! Do you want anything?!"

The aggravated and impatient voice snapped Hinata out of her misery and she looked up, cheeks a bright pink.

"N-no, s-sorry," Hinata stammered. The waitress sighed in frustration and bounced off, blonde hair bouncing back and forth. Hinata put her head back down on the table and sighed, eyes closing. Maybe she really wasn't meant to be a kunoichi. She screwed up too much. How much good was she if she was nothing but a screw up?!

A high-pitched screech caused Hinata's head to snap up, so fast she knocked a tray out of the server's hand as he walked behind her. She saw the hawk, and hastily went to help him get the plates and stuff back on the tray, apologizing profusely before she took off toward the Hokage's office. Tsunade had gotten their punishment thought up rather quickly…

A soft knock sounded on the door and Tsunade's angry voice snapped a, 'Come in!' Hinata opened the door slightly, poking her head in to see Sasuke leaning against one wall as far away from the chair in front of Tsunade's desk as possible. Tsunade wasn't even looking up, her gaze directed at the paperwork in front of her.

Hinata walked in and stood behind the chair, trying her best to ignore Sasuke's angry glare in her direction. No one in the room said anything as Tsunade signed the paper in front of her. After a few minutes of silence, Tsunade looked up and intertwined her fingers as she put her hands together on the desk.

"Uchiha Sasuke and Hyûga Hinata. You both have disappointed me today. I sent you on a simple mission to deliver something, a mission that should have been a breeze for two shinobi of your rank to do, even with an ambush. Instead, you give up the scroll to an enemy village simply because one of your teammates was being threatened," Tsunade broke off here and shook her head. "Therefore, you shall be punished. Both of you come and stand in front of my desk."

Sasuke growled, but did as he was asked, standing next to Hinata, who wouldn't look up. Tsunade took Hinata's right hand, and Sasuke's left hand, and then just held them for a moment. Hinata gasped and Sasuke's eyes widened. After a moment, Tsunade let go and sat back down.

"Congratulations. The two of you will be bound together by chakra for the next week."

That's it for right now guys. Cliff-hanger!!! Kinda… sorta… not really. Anyway, next chapter, Tsunade will explain everything to Hinata and Sasuke.

Brief Glimpse of Chapter Two:

Hinata's eyes widened as she watched Sasuke, unable to tear her gaze away from him. Her cheeks turned a bright pink and she gasped, biting her lip. Those dark eyes looked up at her, and Hinata nearly stumbled backward as she saw the hatred reflected in the depths of those eyes. How could one person hate someone, or anyone, that much? Hinata finally tore her silver gaze off of him and looked at the ground, her heart breaking.

Ahaha. There ya go!

Chapter Two will be up whenever I can get it up… or 5 reviews. Yeah.

Review, please!
