This is a prologue to the actual songfic, and my first attempt at chapters without actually forgetting and just making one really, really long chapter, so… here goes…
Btw, I don't own Naruto characters. Masashi Kishimoto, you lucky dog! (although. I do own Manadea and Katsuya. Who they are, you will soon find out.) I do own the idea I based this on, though! (.)
Behind These Brown Eyes – Chapter One, Prologue.
Tenten gasped as the jutsu her opponent threw hit her. "Hope you don't want to talk until my special jutsu wears off!" The tall, dark-haired woman laughed, "Do you know why?" Tenten was on a solo mission, again. She opened her mouth to come back with something like "Who cares?" but, instead, to her surprise, "No, why?" came out. She clamped her left hand over her mouth. "Ha! You are already experiencing the effects! It's a truth jutsu! You can't lie!" Her opponent cackled. Tenten's eyes widened in anger, and she tackled the woman that was the cause of the mission. "Tell me how to get rid of it, and I'll only turn you in, Manadea. If not, I'll--" The jutsu wouldn't let her say 'Kill you,' because Tenten wouldn't. "I'll hurt you very badly." She snarled. "I'll tell you: someone you love has to kiss you. And now that you know, you can't tell that person something else!" Manadea stated happily. Tenten punched Manadea hard, knocking her out. Tenten pulled Manadea onto her shoulders and hopped back to the gates of Konoha.
"This is – bad." Tenten tried to say 'great,' but couldn't, because she ended up mouthing it. "Okay," she thought out loud, "I guess I end up mouthing what I want to say if it's a lie or something like that." Tenten decided to test the limits of the jutsu. "Lee, I – Think you're annoying!" at first, she mouthed 'I love you.' Seeing that this didn't work, she decided to try something else. "Love pandas!" she decided to leave out 'I' and see if that worked. "—Hate the spandex my former sensei wears!" "-- Love using weapons!" "Hair is in -- two buns!" She growled.

Tenten entered the Tsunade's office, rushing right past a very shocked Shizune, still carrying Manadea on her shoulder. "Hokage-sama?" she called, ignoring Shizune's constant warnings not to disturb Tsunade-sama. "I see you're back, so fast!" Tsunade greeted. "Where did you find her?" she asked. "About a mile and a half outside Konoha," Tenten answered, choosing her words carefully. "Okay!" Tsunade smiled, "set her in that chair over in the corner," She pointed at a chair in the corner of her office. "Thank you!" Tenten sighed, leaving the office.
She walked in silence, wondering how in the five Shinobi countries she was going to get kissed, and who in the five Shinobi countries was going to kiss her? As she was walking, she never noticed Neji, who was walking with his head tilted towards the sky, Byakugan activated. Tenten never noticed that he stopped when he saw her. She ran right into him, and was thrown completely off guard.
