Hello
Thanks all who added me to author alert and stuff like that! I won't fail to mention you later. This is the second chapter YAY! This time I was listening to Spit Fire by Prodigy. It's so weird that I do that. Inspiration from the craziest songs ever, I think something is wrong with me. Please don't forget to review.
Um, I think I failed to mention that I (takes nervous glance around the room) don't own Naruto. Shocking, I know. If I did, well let's just say that Itachi wouldn't go blind and he'd my slave 4-eva!
Chapter 2
Tenten arrived to school with a smile on her tired face. After she put her stuff in her locker, she made sure she wouldn't get stuck in it and scooted on toward her classroom.
Tenten sat down with the girls. They were talking about the play. "Tenten, Hinata says she going to try out for Maleficent in the play, Sleeping Beauty." Ino exclaimed laughing. Tenten's eyes widened a bit before asking, "Isn't she the bad guy? Hinata, no offenses but you're one of the nicest people I've ever met."
Hinata giggled at her friends. "Don't worry, I can pull it off." "Whatever, I wish you luck." Sakura said as Ino and Tenten nodded their heads in agreement. Other people in the classroom kind of widened their eyes too because they over heard their conversation. In the other corner of the classroom, the four nasty maniacs were laughing at Hinata. Then they felt stupid because everyone had gotten over it and they were still laughing.
"Hey Hinata, just wanted to say that you'd probably be great in the play!" Naruto said/yelled to the blushing girl. 'Naruto just said something to me…' she thought. Then she snapped and yelled "Ihavetogogetadrink!" and Hinata ran out of the room like something was threatening her life. Tenten was about to run after her but Sakura stopped her. Naruto walked back to his seat with a slightly worried expression.
"What's wrong with Hinata?" "Oh, nothing. She just has a major crush on that dude. She's so shy about that I'm afraid she might not be able to handle it." Sakura said with Ino disagreeing. "She's a big girl, she can take care of herself, forehead." Sakura glared as her forehead kind of gleamed in the light and she muttered something like 'Ino pig' or 'miss piggy'.
The whole class period went by without the arrival of Kakashi or Neji. Tenten didn't really care. She moved on to second then third period and finally fourth and that's when he decided to show. Fourth period was P.E. and it was her favorite class of the day. Even though she sucked at any other sport that wasn't lacrosse, she enjoyed the freedom her muscles got. Today they were playing softball.
Strike! And the Shikamaru and Naruto lover girls', Hiko and Rasa's, team had to go into the field for the other team to bat. They were losing the game for their team and they were becoming very irritated. They stayed with each other in the wrong places on the field. Tenten was now up to bat. 'I can't mess up.' she thought as the ball was coming for her at its rapid speed. Neji was in the stands watching her intently now. Tenten swung the bat hard and hit the ball for the first time in all the times she's played softball. Tenten was jumping up and down until her teammates yelled for her to start running. The happy girl took off in the wrong direction. One of her teammates turned her around so she would run the right way.
While everyone was laughing at Tenten and not paying attention to the ball, it was heading straight toward the two oblivious morons. When Hiko screamed, everyone looked. Tenten who had already run to home and had nothing to worry about looked up to see Hiko holding her face in agony. When she removed her hands, you could see that her face was twice its normal size. "Now how will Shikamaru kun love me now?!" Hiko whaled. Rasa who was laughing had shut up so she could hold Hiko to comfort her. They rushed to the nurse's office.
Once they were gone, everyone cheered for Tenten. The person inside her was laughing her head off but Tenten felt really bad. Still that's what Hiko deserved; another point for karma (cheers)!
Neji walked up to Tenten after she got changed out of her gym clothes. "I saw what you did out there." The girl looked at him and smiled. "It wasn't my fault. After all, I suck at the sport." Neji smiled at that. Tenten now got to have a good look at his handsome face. She looked away with a little blush before he could return his attention to her again. She turned back around to see his hand held out to her. Accepting it, he helped her off the bench.
"Are you trying out for the play?" Neji asked her as they were walking to their next class. "I don't know, maybe." Now Tenten was actually thinking about the play. Everyone else was thinking about it too, but it's just now that she starts to think about it. "Maybe I will." As much as she sucked at softball, she was pretty good an actress. She just had never really used her acting abilities, except for the dramatic lies she tells her disgusting parents.
Neji was glad that she said that she'd try out. He had already admitted to himself that he liked her. Tenten was an interesting person to him. She was also different from the type of person he'd usually date. Now all he had to work on was the courage to ask her out. I know, you're thinking 'but Neji is a brave big boy, right?' but yes he's chicken in this situation. He'll work on it later.
Fifth period was unusually energetic for world geography (sorry, but I couldn't think of a good 11th grade coarse) because of some girl who'd changed her schedule. "Oh, the pain these innocent people had gone through! Oh, thy tears of thy people!" That's how this girl reacted to hearing about a war. Some of the students had to cover their ears to block out some of her booming voice. She was dressed quite colorfully. Her poncho was tie dye, covering up her flower decorated jeans. The girl had on these bright blue boots and the end of her jeans been tucked into them. When ever she flailed her arms in the air dramatically, you could see that she wore a gray shirt that said in big black letters 'DRAMA' under her poncho. In the girl's curly, shoulder length, purple locks were a huge red poinsettia flower.
This certainly was an interesting character to high school. "Hinata, who is this chick?" Tenten asked. Hinata looked at Tenten nervously before saying, "That, is the almighty drama student, Yumi. She exists solely for acting, or so she says. Yumi was also one of the main characters in every school play there has ever been. Very talented but also very greedy over parts of the plays she wants to be in. In other words, if you try to be one of the characters she wants to be, then she will do anything to get the part."
Tenten took a long look at this Yumi person. She didn't look like the type of person who would be conniving. But Hinata was the one who warned her and even though Tenten knew her for only a little while, she already knew she was the type of person who couldn't lie. "I just hope that she doesn't want to be Maleficent." Hinata said in a very un- Maleficent but rather worried voice.
'I hope that she doesn't want to be Aurora because that's exactly who I'm trying out for.' Tenten thought.

In the auditorium
Tenten looked around to see that Ino was there with paint all over her face. "Hey, Tenten!" She welcomed happily. Ino recognized the 'what the heck are/were you doing?' look and explained that she is one of the people who paint the backdrops.
Tenten went to go sit down in one of the seats where the rest of anybody who wanted to try out sat. "Who are you going for?" Neji asked, suddenly appearing there. Tenten mentioned Aurora and Neji's eyes widened for a second. "Good luck." was his muttered reply. They talked for a bit until this insane looking woman emerged from the other side of the maroon curtains.
"Oh my God, this better not be the drama teacher." Tenten thought desperately. The woman indeed was the clichéd drama teacher. Tenten could only guess she was just as nutty and spazzy and wild as any of the ones from the movies she's seen. Mrs. Kyo her name was and for heaven's sake, she had blue streak running from the hair line along her forehead all the way down to the end of her waist length blonde, almost white, hair. This woman flashed these serious but wild brownish red eyes that made sure everyone understood that she can be one dangerous woman if you screw her project up.
"Good afternoon everyone. I want everyone to get into groups of characters you want to try out for. In other words, all the ones who want to try out for one of the fairies get together and so on. Also if you wanted to try out for Prince Philip then forget it. I've already decided that Neji will be perfect for the part." When she said that, all of the ones who wanted to be him had sulked away from the auditorium.
"Neji, you could sit in one of the seats in the back for now, I need you to stay until the end of try outs for some important information."
Mrs. Kyo turned around to take a look at how things were going to go. When her hawk eyes spotted the only two Auroras, her thin red lips turned up in a smile and she made her way to the stage. 'I'll save the best for last.' The psycho thought.
With Tenten and Yumi
"Who the hell are you?" Yumi asked in an ice cold tone of voice. "I'm Aurora, how are you?" Tenten replied happily. Yumi huffed a good amount of air before saying, "Oh no you're not, you peasant." Tenten cocked an eyebrow at her as did Yumi and they both turned their backs to each other before they created some drama that nobody really needed at the moment.
Hinata got her chance to try out and everyone was utterly shocked. This chick sounded so evil. The girl automatically found her place in the play. Sakura, who had gotten there late, had made it for the red fairy, and Sasuke made it for King Stephen (Aurora's dad).
Finally it was Yumi and Tenten's turn. They both got up but before Tenten could move at all, Yumi had shoved her back down in her seat. She ran ahead toward the stage, as she did, Yumi tied her purple hair up. When Yumi was done Tenten crawled onto the stage and acted her heart out. She shouted the lines she was given, acted anything she had to. If she had to pretend to cry, Mrs. Kyo knew she could probably do it.
In the end Tenten made it as Aurora and Yumi as the blue fairy, Meriwether. When Yumi got home, she dramatically tore up her room. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah, gggggggrrrr!" She screamed and yelled. The girl grabbed a picture of her mother. She was a glamorous looking woman who was never home. Yumi chucked the thing at the wall and formed a small hole in it. "Oops." Yumi picked it up and grabbed a nail and hammer out of the little desk next to the area. "This 'Aurora' girl is going down." She seethed. Yumi pictured that she was banging Tenten's head rather than the head of a nail into the wall.
