The trouble with Tenten.
Tenten decides that Neji needs a change and cuts off most of his hair. Neji uses this to his advantage. Slight crack! Be kind, my first fic…rated T just in case! Please R&R!

At the training grounds, Tenten lunged at Neji, her kunai ready for her attack. He just barely jumped out of her path. She was getting stronger and the training sessions more intense.
"Let's take a break" Neji said, sweat running down his back. It was the middle of summer in Konaha and the residents were feeling the heat. It was alright for most of the other teams; they were all on missions including Team 7 who were at the Sea country.
Tenten nodded and sat on a log at the side of the grounds. "Would you pass me my drink bottle Neji? It's in my bag just behind you."
Neji Nodded and picked up the bag. Lee and Gai had embarked on 100 laps of the village. They were taking it easy, they had told Neji and Tenten earlier, because of the heat. He reached in and pulled out a small flask which he, with his back turned, skulled half of. Tenten smiled in thanks as he handed her the flask and didn't seem to notice. Neji picked up the end of his hair, trying to allow some of the fresh, cool breeze onto the back of his sweaty neck.
Look at him! I don't know why he doesn't just cut it all off! It's only a hassle. Tenten thought, glancing sideways at the young prodigy's hair. He looks like a girl from the back! Well I'll just have to do something about it won't I.
Neji shuddered as he turned to see an evil grin creep across Tenten's face.
OoOoOoOoOo
In his bed, Neji tossed and turned. The hot nights always bothered him and he slept fitfully. His sheet was off the side of the bed and the ceiling fan turned slowly as he fell asleep, the sound masking the footsteps outside his door.
The door opened slowly but Neji did not stir, so the intruder continued.
Neji's eyes finally jerked open as 2 people grabbed him, one throwing him over his shoulder, the other one holding a strange smelling cloth over his mouth and nose and finally, he fell into a deep sleep.
OoOoOoOoOo
Neji squinted as a beam of sunlight bore into his eyes. Where am I? Neji asked himself, and why am I strapped down to a chair? Two people approached him, one in a tight green suit...and another with a small bun on either side of their head.
"Wha-What's going on!?" Neji half yelled half said as he was still half asleep.
They appeared to be in a shed or small warehouse. "Where the hell am I?"
"Neji my youthful companion! Tenten and I decided that your hair needed a more youthful look for this youthful summer!" Wow, Neji thought with a smirk, not realizing what Lee had just said, he really outdid himself this time.
"Wait, what?" Neji yelled, the smirk disappearing from his face.
"Hold still and this shouldn't hurt." Tenten said, a smile creeping onto her face as she walked towards Neji, electric clippers in hand.
"Noooooooooooooooooooooo"….
OoOoOoOoOo
"Just hold still, all we need to do is wash out the dye!"
"Wow, wait…dye..?"
"Don't worry, just some youthful blonde highlights"
"Ahhh, Lee? Is it supposed to be running like that..?"
"Do not worry Tenten, Neji; you now have youthful, bright, blonde hair!"
"…..You will both pay severely for this."
OoOoOoOoOo
"Oh"
"My
"God"
Neji looked in the small handheld mirror and the reflection didn't look like him. It looked like… "Naruto.."
Tenten giggled. "Here, wait a sec." Tenten raced over to where she had left her bag and pulled out a small pencil.
"What the hell is that!?" Neji yelled. "You had your fun, now let me go!" (1)
" Relax! It's just eyeliner. I just want to try something." Tenten said, once again proceeding to Neji's side.
Neji squirmed in the chair, trying to break the bounds tying him to it. He just had to get away. In a desperate bid for freedom, Neji picked up the underside of the chair and ran (2) about 3 metres, before tripping and landing head first on the cement ground.
"Neji!"
"Neji
(1) I know, hard to imagine Neji yelling, but just use your imagination.
(2) Have you ever tried this? It's extremely difficult!
