Her long flowing snow white dress ran from her shin too her chest. Everyone was in awe when the unfamiliar aura of the girl filled the room.

The mask which hid her face wasn't keeping anyone away from her, the smile on her face itself proved her beauty.

The chocolate haired, perfect frame girl had a purpose for attending this function.

Not to smile in the faces of others, not to drink and laugh the night away and most definetly not to wake up in an unfamiliar bed.

Tenten was here too do one thing.

Assassinate. And that's what she'll do.

"Neji you've been sitting here for almost an hour", a familiar voice said. Placing his drink down too look up at the speaker Neji saw his close friends Naruto with his fiance who was also his cousin; Hinata

They pulled out chairs and sat with him at the table . "This event doesn't amuse me", the man stated blandly.

He pulled the glass closer too my mouth and avoided Naruto's grin.

Don't get him wrong the well known Hyuuga doesn't hate parties. The man hated attending them without a companion, especially when his friends always came with the most gorgeous women. Its not that he was incapable of getting a woman to accompany me, far from.

Inviting any woman would make her think she was 'special ' too Neji , and she'd assume they were in a relationship.

Then the male would have too explain she was only invited too accompany him and asking her too accompany the man was not leading too crawl all other him constantly but never have thought about getting serious with one.

Neji looked down at his finger eying a ring of major significance. Naruto must have noticed him looking at the ring because the blonde started again.

"Neji... you can't fixate on that anymore." Immediately he knew what he meant.

"Hn"

"I mean, I Naruto Uzumaki was in love with Sakura for years. But here I am now engaged to the most beautiful woman in Konoha". Naruto said softly but loud enough to make his cousin blush madly.

Neji almost rolled his eyes. " The girl you made that promise too could be a completely different person now. And do you honestly think she's sitting looking at her ring?, she's probably enjoying herself so you should too".

The man hated when Naruto was right, which he usually was. "A guy like you should be having fun with a a gorgeous lady it may not amount to anything but you both would make nice memories.

He was right. "So what lady should I be with right now?" Neji asked. He could not deny the fact that he as amused, Naruto had a knack for picking the best companions.

"Hmmm, I already have the gorgeous woman at this function so I guess that one" Naruto answered. He pointed to a womanwho was sitting alone in the corner of the ball room alone with a drink in hand.

She looked similar to Neji before Hinata and Naruto had joined him.

"Hn". The man got up from his seat and walked up to the woman hoping that she would not be annoying.

No words could have described the shock that hit Tenten when Neji Hyuga asked her too dance. The data book said he wasn't the type to show interest in a woman first so the brunette had decided to wait until he had a decent amount of drinks to make her move.

But their was a change of plans. Tenten was now on the dance floor her hands on his shoulders, his on her waist and having a conversation.

"I don't recognize you", he said. His voice was smooth,low and velvety and the girl could not help but to be mesmerized by it.

"That would defeat the purpose of this being a mascaraed party". she answered giving him a small smile. She'd admit he had a nice voice but she was known to have a dulcet tone.

He gave a short chuckle. "What I meant to say was that this is an invite only function, but I don't think I've ever seen you before". The girl slightly tensed but quickly regained her composure.

"So you're gonna tell on me?" she giggled, the Hyuga nodded his head meaning no. "What are you doing here?" he asked with a perfect eyebrow raised.

"I just wanted to see how the rich live."

"How'd you get an invite"

"I found it... I guess the right thing to do would've been to give it back but I couldn't resist this once in a lifetime opportunity to mingle with the rich, powerful and gorgeous", she smiled.

Tenten could not lie she always wanted to be rich. To be someone of importance and help others, but unfortunately life had other plans for her.

"You guys have it so good". she muttered only realizing what she said too late.

At first Neji thought this woman was only one of the billions of people who wished to be rich with there own personal wish. But after she stated how 'good' he has it the man could hear sadness in her tone.

"What's your name?" Neji found himself asking. The woman hesitated, as if she was wondering if to tell him or not.

"Tenshi."

"It's not you took too long", the man laughed. He saw how wide her eyes were through her mask she looked right at her toes.

"It's Tenten".

"Well Tenten a poor man with a family is rich. I have no family therefore I am truly the poor one."

"As wise as you are handsome, I like that" Tenten smiled and Neji simply nodded.

After about 15 minutes of talking Neji had told the girl that he had something to show her. This was the part where she'd end him, but Tenten didn't want too this was something new to her. Usually she was sent to eliminate those fat, rich, selfish obnoxious men. But this one was different.

He seemed kind, honest and when he asked her anything his voice was always telling her he cared. Other men would have attempted to grope her but this one kept his hands to himself.

And strangely enough he managed to seem interested in her without even flirting! It made her sad to think that such a perfect man would die today.

But she had to do it.

I honestly don't know if to continue this story. Please review!
