Ninja Swap!
Disclaimer: I may be an awesome goddess but I did not create the ever so awesome anime Naruto. I wish I did (so I could rightfully say that I, AiOrikasa, OWN Gaara) but I do not. A low life like me could not have created something so amazing. I give props to Masashi Kishimoto.
Warning: This story contains yaoi and bisexuality. If you are a homophobe (like me) don't read it. I just so happen to like GaaNej get over it. If you don't like GaaNej then why do you even bother. You should not even be on the Internet right now! Go study like a good little professor!
Chapter 2- InterrogationClick! Tsunade clasped her bags tight. "You got everything?" Shizune asked her.
"I have everything," Tsunade sighed.
Tsunade was getting ready for her departure from the village. Gaara and Shizune stood with her at the front gates of the village. Her bra was hanging out of her large brief case and fell slowly down to the ground like a feather. Gaara eyed the large cupped bra, he felt very sick. How could they be that big? Gaara thought. He had a very big nosebleed coming.
He held onto his bleeding nose and handed the bra to Tsunade. She angrily bopped him on the head," You bakka!" She put the bra back into the brief case.
"And this young pervert boy is going to run my village," Tsunade smiled. Tsunade rested her hands on Gaara's shoulder. Gaara looked up to Tsunade in shock, after her anger outburst she was being kind and caring. She held onto Gaara tightly in a huge bear hug.
"Be safe Gaara-kun," she said.
"Alright… but I cannot breath Tsunde… sama…" Tsunade released him from her vicious hug.
"Take care!" Tsunade said. Tsunade and Shizune started to walk out," Oh and Gaara…"
"Hm?"
"You better get used to pests here at this village," Tsunade coughed," Naruto."
Gaara rolled his eyes and said sarcastically," Oh no not Naruto!"
Tsunade shook her head yes," Well, I'm not only doing this for your safety. I also need a break from that knuckle head ninja. You'll see." Tsunade waved good bye and finally left Konoha. Gaara crossed his arms indifferently.
"So Gaara-sama are you ready?" Shizune asked. Gaara shook his head yes and Shizune began to direct him back to his new office. Gaara felt a slight breeze of another person's presence and stopped foot in his tracks. Someone was watching him and he had a gut feeling that they were up to no good.
"Is something wrong Gaara-sama?" Shizune asked.
"No nothing at all," Gaara continued to follow Shizune. There, a tall massive tree stood an elite ninja that was spying on Gaara and his every move.

Tenten took Neji by the hand out of the department store. "Come on Neji! We just got to go to the other store!"
Neji sighed. How boring, he thought, men don't shop! "Do we really have to?"
"Oh please Neji-kun!" Tenten said with loving eyes," I'd love for you to come with me."
I hate it when she give me that look, Neji thought, I can never turn it down…
Neji slapped his face," Fine, on to the next shop," he said nonchalantly. She gave Neji a wide grin," Perfect! I really like this spot!" She took him by the arm.
Neji groaned. No one was able to save him from his everlasting boredom…
With great timing, Neji heard the cute snort of Shizune's pet pig. Next to Shizune was the red headed, Gaara. Neji smiled. Sorry Tenten, Neji thought, but I have buisness that needs to be taken care of.
"Tenten, I just remember that my Uncle needed me this afternoon," he lied.
"Aw but Neji…" she said sadly. Tenten let go of his arm.
"I'm sorry but… maybe next time," he said apologetically. He hurried away from the girl and pursued after Gaara. He moved with stealth and great speed without putting attention to himself. He jumped on top of a large nearby apartment building, leaping over other massive buildings in his way. He finally reached Gaara. He scanned down at the village and started to observe his every movement.
Now what is he doing, he thought? Gaara slowly entered the Hokage's building with Shizune. He followed the two the building, he stayed outside and activated his Buuyakugan and watched closely…
Shizune handed Gaara a ton of paperwork and a pen," Get started." Gaara eyed the tall stack of papers," I never did this in Suna…"
"Well since Tsunade likes to meddle with Konoha's expenses she has left it all to you," Shizune said," Blame it on her lazy ass. She has a serious financial problem." Gaara sighed.
He has to be pissed, Neji thought, he is going to kill the 5th I know it!
Gaara picked up the first pile of paperwork," 'Still need to pay debts on a bet for pig weighing contest'…What the heck?"
"She was so determined that TonTon was going to win," Shizune sighed.
"Tsuande-baa-chan!!!" Naruto burst in through the office doors," Um… Gaara why are you in Tsunade-baa-chan's office?"
Stupid, Neji thought, he was not there during the announcement?
"Have you come for a mission Naruto-kun?" Shizune asked. Naruto did not listen to her question and started chatting with Gaara.
"Hey, when did you come here?"
"Where is the old lady anyways?"
"We cool right? Wanna get some ramen anytime?"
He is so loud, Neji thought, I cannot even hear what Gaara is saying back to him. Naruto was known to be one of the most annoying ninja in the village, but when he spoke with Gaara he did not seem to be affected at all.
Neji heard a soft 'sure' come from Gaara's mouth. He is friends with Naruto, Neji thought?
Yes the dismal Gaara of the Sand befriended with the knuckle headed ninja of the Leaf. It was hard to believe through Neji's eyes. Not even the Buuyakugan could see how much they resembled each other. Neji was too lost in thought when Gaara and Naruto stepped out of the office, he had no time to hide himself. It was probably clear to the two that he was spying.
Naruto smiled," Hey Neji! You wanna come to Ichiraku Ramen with us?" Neji regained his composure; they did not notice a thing. He looked over to the eyes of the man he was spying on. Gaara was waiting for his reply to Naruto's offer.
Awkward, Neji thought. "Uhh… sure Naruto, I'd be glad to come."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why is my heart pounding like this, Gaara thought? He held onto his chest as they walked the streets to Ichiraku Ramen. Naruto was blabbing to him the whole time but he drowned his words and paid more attention to the beautiful man near him.
This is the closet I have been to him, Gaara thought, I always looked afar. Now he's standing right next to me. He looked over to Neji, but Neji was scanning Gaara head-to-toe first.
He's looking at me, Gaara thought. He started to blush. He hid his blush and said," You got a problem?"
Neji turned away from him," No, I am just looking at my new leader."
"Leader?" Gaara said.
"You are the temporary Hokage aren't you?" Neji asked.
"You replaced Tsunade-baa-chan?!" Naruto said flabbergasted," No fair, I wish I was in your shoes right now."
"Yes that is correct," Gaara said. They sat down at the ramen stand and ordered their meals.
Gaara continued," Tsunade believes that our villages will be safer if we switched positions, considering that the Atkatsuki is still at large."
"For how long?" Naruto asked.
"What do you mean?" Gaara asked.
"I think Naruto means how long will you be staying here," Neji asked suspiciously.
Gaara scratched his head," I'm not sure… I…"
Ayame handed their ramen and said cheerfully," Here is your ramen."
"Great! I love your ramen with egg and steak!" Naruto said happily. He loudly slurped his meal. Gaara just stared at the ramen, he really was not a big of a ramen fan like Naruto. Instead he stared at the Hyuuga sitting next to him. For a man he was very delicate, the way he picks up his chopsticks, the way he placed his long locks behind his ears, the way he quietly ate his noodles. Gaara really admired Neji's feminine qualities. He was especially turned on when Neji licked his pink lips away from the ramen's mouth-watering soup. Gaara felt an erection coming on… his penis was moving like a shriveled worm.
"Are you gonna eat that?" Naruto asked. Gaara hid his erection, and tried to hide his embarrassment.
"Yes take it!" Gaara said.
"You're missing out dude," Naruto said. He swallowed his ramen whole.
What is wrong with me, Gaara thought?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gaara paid for the bill, and they left the restaurant.
"Thanks for coming with me, Gaara, Neji," Naruto said," Hope you feel at home, Gaara." Naruto walked back to his apartment. Neji looked over to Gaara.
"Uhm… well… what now?" Gaara said nervously.
Neji kept a serious face," I need to talk to you, Gaara."
"Hm?"
Neji continued to walk, Gaara followed. Neji looked up at night sky, as the lanterns at the sides of the streets lit.
Konoha is a sight to see, Gaara thought, Neji makes it even more scenic.
Neji interrupted his thoughts," Gaara… do you consider yourself a trustworthy person?"
Gaara raised an non-existent eyebrow," What are you asking me Hyuuga?"
Neji cleared his throat and faced Gaara with an angry look," Don't act stupid! You know what I am trying to say!"
Gaara was speechless, what could he have done to make Neji think that he was untrustworthy?
"Is that why you were spying on me earlier this afternoon?" Gaara asked nonchalantly. Gaara moved away from Neji's angry glare. Neji held onto Gaara's arm tightly.
"Remember the chunnin exams? I did not know you very well back then, but even a blind man can see how dangerous you were."
Gaara felt very uneasy about Neji's sudden interrogation. He slapped Neji's hand from his arms with his summoned sand.
"See what I mean," Neji said. Neji brushed his hand; just looking at his bruised hand hurt Gaara. Gaara moved as quick as he could, trying to avoid the Hyuuga. He stepped onto his sand and levitated back to the office. He ran to the office door and swished the door open quickly. When he swung the door open, Neji faced him persistently.
"You are the temporary Hokage correct? I need to get to know you a little more," Neji said.
No way to get rid of this guy, Gaara said. Gaara sighed," Whatever." Neji moved out of the way and let Gaara into the office. He situated himself on a nearby seat and crossed his arms.
Gaara sat down. "Please listen to my words carefully Neji Hyuuga," he crossed his arms and leaned over his desk," 2 years ago in the chunnin exams… I guess I was the center of attention. I did not think that I drew enough attention to make you notice me. That boy 2 years ago was lonely and afraid. He did not understand why even walked the Earth, he did not understand why people spat on him, he did not understand why he could not fit in… That boy was driven by insanity. You may have wondered when you were spying me earlier… that I am not annoyed by Naruto-kun at all. He changed the way I look at the world, because of him I am a different man. He saved me twice from going to Hell, and I respect him for that. Without Naruto Uzumaki I would be a dead man."
"That is something we have in common," Neji said," Before I met Naruto, I felt as if I was better than everyone else. I had to make others feel low because of my own hurt. Since I am in a lower branch of my clan… I had to make others feel lower than myself. But with my match with Naruto I learned that fate and social classes does not matter. It's the heart that counts."
"Exactly," Gaara said," Because of him he has made me into a better man, a trustworthy man." Gaara raised Neji's hand with sand for a handshake.
"Truce?" he asked. Neji was skeptical at first but shook his hand.
He has soft hands… Gaara thought. Gaara set his lustful thoughts aside and let go of his hand.
"My answer. I can be trusted, why else would Tsunade let me lead her village?" Gaara said.
"True," Neji said," Well… I best be heading out."
Come on Gaara say it before he goes, Gaara thought.
"You are welcome to come anytime you want Hyuuga," Gaara said.
"It's Neji and… sure," Neji said. He walked out of the office," Welcome to Konoha."

For Corvin, the first reviewer of Ninja Swap! Thank you. Right now I think I maybe grounded because my cousins found a Shikamaru and Temari porno that I received and deleted a long time ago. Like months ago. Those nosy kids were looking at it.
Highlights for the next chapter:
Neji and Gaara become friends. Gaara finds out that Neji has sour opinion on homosexuals. Gaara is jealous of Tenten, and he'd do anything to win the Hyuuga's heart.
