Chapter 1:

In Suna..

I woke up to an uneasy wind. I battered my eyes, removing the grains of dust and sand upon them, then sat up.

"I don't like this wind."I thought.

I got up, walked passed my mirror, and stopped. I was wearing my black and purple shorts and tank top.

"Even when I'm sleeping, I still look good."I smirked.

I went inside the shower and let my hair rinse out.

I came out, and put on my purple shorts, tank top, fishnet leggings and arm sleeves. I slipped on my ninja shoes and grabbed my giant fan. I put my hair in my signature four pigtails, and went to the kitchen where Gaara and Kankuro were sipping tea.

"Morning."I greeted.

"Morning, I have a misson for you."Gaara stopped sipping his tea.

"What is it?"I asked.

"Okay, I need you to go to Konoha and meet up with the messenger, Nara Shikamaru. There, you need to stay and take place in the Jounin Exams even though you're one already. There is a new village and we need information on their ninja."He explain.

"Alright. I won't let you down Kazekage."I bowed.

"Kankuro will escort you to the gate where your misson begins. Good luck."He nodded me to leave.

I tightened my fan and walked with Kankuro to the gate.

"You ready sis?"He asked.

"Always ready. Don't question my ability!"I snapped.

"Sorry. See you soon."He poofed away.

I nodded, then flew on my fan towards the forest to Konoha.

"Here comes the Sand Ninja, Sabaku No Temari."I thought.

Shikamaru POV~

"Great, now another troublesome kuinochi is coming, and this one is spunky. I hate spunky."I said as I walked inside the Hokage tower with Ino.

"Hey watch it Shikamaru, Temari is one of my best friends. And I know you have feelings for her."Ino defended.

"So troublesome aren't you?"I smirked.

"You already know it, baka!"She slapped my arm playfully.

We walked inside, then Ino left me alone with the Hokage.

"Shikamaru, you may have heard that Temari is coming. Please show her the best of hospitality you can, knowing you're a lazy bum."She joked.

"Troublesome old lady.."I mumbled.

"You mind repeating that?"She shouted.

"No, I'm good."

"Thought so, you, Temari, Neji, Saskue, Tenten, and Ino will be on a team during the Jounin Exams. There is a new village and we need intel on them."She explained.

"Okay, but for how long?"I asked.

"At least a month."She answered.

"Great! A month with troublesome kuinochi!"I thought.

"You begin your misson by meeting Temari at the gate in one hour. Dissmissed."Tsunade said.

I nodded, then poofed to the nearest bench near the gate.

"One quick nap..."I thought as I dozed off.

A few hours later..

"You rude lazy baka!"A female shouted as she smacked me with a huge fan.

I woke up startled and in so much pain.

"Tsk tsk Shikamaru. You should know better."Neji smirked.

"Hehe. Are y-you okay, S-shika?"Hinata giggled.

"Nice Temari."Saskue observed the bump on my head.

"Oh he is so lucky I'm exhasted or he would be in the hospital."She snapped.

"Nice to see you too, troublesome woman."I smirked trying not to show the pain I was in.

"Stupid baka."She scoffed and walked away.

"I think your failing your misson."Tenten smirked.

"Oi. Temari wait!"I ran towards her.

"I give him a week."Naruto betted.

"Make that three days."Ino also betted.

Temari POV~

"That stupid, rude, cute baka!"I thought as I walked passed his house.

"Temari wait!"He called out to me.

I sighed, stopped, then turned around. He finally caught up to me and gasped for air. Being kind, I gave him a breeze.

"Thanks."He panted.

"What do you want lazy?"I smirked.

"Invite you to stay at my house."He blushed slightly.

"Oh? Is the lazy, Shikamaru-Kun, inviting a spunky girl like me, to stay with him?"My smirk grew.

"Is that a yes or no troublesome woman?"He got serious.

"Sure. Why not?"I answered as I followed him to his house.

He opened the front door, and I was ambushed by Yoshino, his mother.

"Temari! You're back in town! Oh I didn't have time to make a nice dinner! Please forgive me!"She rambled but I put my hand up.

" its okay. Its a suprise anyway. No worries."I put on my best smile.

She smiled, nodded, then gestured me to her husband, Shikaku.

"Always nice to see you Mr. Nara,"I greeted.

"Same for you. First girl I ever saw around here to be as good as us in Shogi. Wanna play?"He asked.

"Why of course, but could I unpack first?"I asked.

"Take your time. I need to talk to Shikamaru anyway."He nodded with a smile.

I nodded and poofed upstairs to "my" room. I unpacked my stuff and unhooked my fan and scroll. I let out my hair and changed my clothes into my robe. I went back downstairs and stopped by the wall. I started listening to the whispers of the wind.

"Not good."I mumbled.

I darted into the living room where Shikaku and Shikamaru were engaged in a game.

"Excuse me, Mr. Nara. I need to talk to Shikamaru."I started to shake.

"What's wrong?"Yoshino asked.

"Nothing at all, just need to talk, now."I emphasized towards Shikaku.

He understood and let Shikamaru leave the game.

"What's going on troublesome woman?"He smirked.

"The breeze I felt, I know which village that's from. Its from the Village of the Mountains. That's the mysterious new village. And their not kind."I started to feel rage growing inside me.

"Woah, calm down. Why do you hate them so much?"He asked.

"They are the ninjas who went against my village."I started to growl.

"Listen,"he held my face gently. "We will find out more at the Jounin Exams tomorrow okay?"

I nodded, but then it happened. He leaned in and kissed me. At first I was shocked, then relaxed.

"What's wrong with me?"We both thought.
