A rain of weapons flew at the enemy.
A Byakugan kept watch for danger.
Twin chocolate buns.
Loose midnight hair.
Two halves.
One whole.
Soon to be just a lonely half.
But not for long.
The weapons mistress of Konoha
The Hyuuga prodigy.
Caught in a hopeless battle.
Too many to face.
Too close to run.
They would go down together.
Fighting.
Her treasured weapons flew.
Their targets shown by his bloodline.
They hit every one.
But there were more.
"Neji, I'm sorry." whispered the kunoichi to her self.
"Me too, Tenten." He replied. even though she had not meant for him to hear her.
Deadly kunai raced towards them.
The first half had fallen. Riddled with kunai Tenten slumped. Looking at her first, last and only love she whispered.
"love you."
The light in those nutmeg orbs fading she smiled for the last time.
For eternity.
As Neji caught her body, all his will to live faded. Gone with her precious sparkle.
Silent tears fell as he waited for his end.
And it came.
As a hail of kunai.
"love you too."
Lee lead the reinforcement team to the rendezvous. When his teammates were absent, he panicked.
Spreading out to search, he headed in the direction he had last seen them.
Then he saw.
Midnight hair fallen loose danced across ragged chocolate buns.
The prodigy holding the mistress.
Tenten's last act of love.
Neji's loss of will to live with out her.
Lee's silent tears of regret.
But the duo was smiling.
Tenten wore her brightest, warmest, happiest smile.
Neji' his soft, tender, protective smile.
The smiles they only wore for each other.
