Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.

Chapter two. Man, this came fast. Anyway, most chapter are going to be 2,000 words. Yup, and if anyone read the chapter where Neji died, I swear, I will not live again.

But continuing on, there will be a couple revealed. And some new characters will be revealed too.

What characters were revealed so far? Oh yeah, Tenten, Sakura, and Neji. Sakura's boyfriend, the most obvious, is going to be revealed or maybe not. I'm still deciding.

Tips for writers when they come to the chapter 17 and up, write extra document chapters early so you have a lot of inspiration for the story. If you don't, the story slowly becomes boring. But, let's continue on~~this is just my tip, you don't have to, but hey-It's here if you ever want it.

My inspiration for this chapter...sad KPop songs, specifically Gummy ft. TOP's I'm Sorry.

Um, the story may change some POVs but it will mostly be Tenten. I do better girl point of views than guys anyway, considering I'm a girl too and all that.

-Tenten

My feet finally hit its limit.

I was tired from running from god-knows-who for so long.

I tumbled to the ground, tipping to the sides and rolled down the hill. The sky was painted black with slightly purple clouds and the moon was so white, it looked blue. The stars were nonexistent. A cold wind whipped my loose rich brown hair around. Why did I have cuts on my body? Why was I soaked in cold rain? Why were there tears all over my face? Why was I so cold? Most importantly, who the hell was chasing me? I turned around, my eyes widened.

I opened my mouth to scream out the name when-

"Tenten! Wake up, you lazy dumbass."

I opened my eyes, to see one of Akira's followers.

Sasuke Uchiha.

To be honest, though he is a total jackass with a pole up in his a**, he's like a brother.

"Sasuke, why'dja wake me?" I whined, rubbing my eyes.

"Because Akira told me so. The gangs are meeting up at midnight. It's nine now. Go take a shower. You smell."

"At least, I'm not the smellier one."

"Just go take a shower!" he snapped and I wanted to wring his neck, but instead smiled wickedly to say: One day, Uchiha, I will kill you.

I could definitely see why Sakura liked him and why I wouldn't.

With his spiky black hair, tall-ness, dark endless onyx eyes, and fair skin, he was already known for his handsomeness. Add in his indifferent face, cold attitude, very much hidden soft side, and his overprotectiveness, he was known as the cool genius. Every girl Triple F-ed over him. The Triple F standing for: fawned, fan girl-ed, and fainted over him. But there were beauty-s(or not) without the brains that threw themselves at his feet only to get in his pants.

To them, if they managed to sneak in, they would declare it a lifetime achievement, a campfire story, a personal goal achieved, and they received a status of admiration and envy, more likely the latter.

But despite him being a total douche, he cared for me. He and I were childhood friends for a long time and he helped me a lot.

And the fact that we were both orphans helped to our progressing friendship.

After a warm shower, Sakura appeared to help with the makeup.

As she began to remake me, I start to muse and reflect on my memories today.

After I fled the handsome stranger-Neji, his name is Neji, Tenten. Remember that. A voice reminded me with a slightly nasal tone.

Right. I thought, annoyed at being interrupted.

I saw my hair being blow dried and brushed through thoroughly. Then piled high in two buns. Neatly and tightly without so much as a single rebellious strand sticking out. Then layers upon layers, application after application, came the make up. Full red lips, skin that glowed and hid the scars and bruises, eyes with a light application of eye liner and mascara, a brush of blush(ha) to give my cheeks a rosy glow, and to make sure I don't ruin my makeup, I made sure to use long lasting water proof ones. Specifically the ones used for night times. I dressed in a warm t-shirt, both black skinny jeans and thick hoodie, dark knee high brown leather boots made for running, and hid my two buns in under my hood.

So, where was I?

Oh yeah, the scene where I fled Neji.

After I did so, I came back the apartment, eating myself sick, then fell asleep due to being emotionally and mentally exhausted, waking up at nine. I checked the clock, it read eleven.

One hour to kill until the battle where I'm supposed to attend.

Sigh.

I saw the two young teens, both seventeen, both even younger than me, stare at each other lovingly.

Sasuke was her boyfriend and yet, he wasn't the type to woman beat.

Sigh again.

Sakura was so lucky.

I decided to eat a warm bowl of ramen to kill time and after, I brushed my teeth until they were minty-white and smelled of Tic Tacs.

Sasuke and Sakura, by the time I was done, were making out.

I checked the mirror in case I ruined my makeup or anything, but nope, I looked...normal.

I said annoyingly "Hey, hey, both of you. Yeah, you can both suck each other's face off when the gangs finish fighting each other. Now, don't we have a battle to attend?"

Both, sheepish and embarrassed, fixed themselves and made sure no trace was left behind.

At eleven thirty, we began to walk to junk yard, bundled in thick warm hoodies, comfortable skinny jeans, and good running boots.

Sasuke moved to side of the Reapers while me and Sakura stood to the sidelines.

I looked at the gang of the Reapers and stared at the other gang.

I nearly had my vein popped out.

The leader was Neji!

Akira said "Neji Hyuuga. What a surprise."

I had to have Sakura slap a hand over my mouth so I didn't exclaim something.

He was Neji?

The Neji HYUUGA?

So this was the infamous Neji Hyuuga. The one who was known for their silent killings, the bloodiest of battles, they had no defeat at all. He was the one who put a serial killer in the hospitable for telling his cousin she had a good set of cleavage. He'd put a professional martial artist in a coma for telling Neji he was "pretty." Their gang was called the Shinobi since they were so silent in their killings.

Neji turned his head over to me, his eyes deepened "So, Akira, Tenten's your girlfriend, right?"

Akira growled "Stay away from Tenten. Wait, how do you know Tenten?"

"That isn't important. Look, I got a deal. We win, I take one of your men, your girlfriend, and you stay off our territory."

I almost wanted to scream out. Since when am I property?

Sakura looked at me with wide eyes, silently begging me to not make anything worse.

I leaned back, my eyes at the ground, scowling.

Akira snapped back "And if we win, we kick you off your territory and make all your women our slaves."

I nearly wanted to pound his face in. To him, we were lively toys for them to play with.

Neji flashed out a switch blade and said "Akira, honestly, I don't want another murder on my record. So, just hand them over and we'll forget all about this."

"No, I don't go down without a fight. Especially over my men."

Not a single word directed about me.

How lovely of my sweet, caring boyfriend.

Not.

Neji sighed empathetic-ally, almost apologetically he said "Alright, you just signed your death warrant."

"Likewise, pretty boy."

If anything, Neji's white eyes stopped being so fascinating and they turned to downright intimidating as he glared at them. They all trembled.

Even Akira almost let a face of fear slip.

But he scowled, a definite fake one.

I clenched my fists together, wondering who I was more mad at: Neji or Akira.

Neji said, "Deal?"

Akira scowled "Deal."

They shook hands.

I was mad at Akira for considering me not even good enough to fight over and Neji since apparently, I'm property now.

I scowled at Neji and h-he literally winked at me!

I blushed and Akira noticed this.

"Tenten, have you met this guy before?"

I shook my head immediately and said "Him? N-n-never seen him in my entire life."

Akira narrowed his ugly cerulean blue eyes "You've met before, haven't you? Are you cheating on me?!"

Its always Akira who jumps to conclusions, don't blame him.

I shook my head, more desperately and panicked "No! Absolutely not. I'm in love with you, you, and only you. So don't even think like that."

Neji frowned at me and took my hand, "Tenten, don't be afraid of your feelings. He obviously hurts you. I wouldn't hurt a single sole hair on your pretty little head."

I held in my breath. Neji, despite his record, seemed so gentle and with his warm touch, I have never felt so safe and secure in my entire life.

The only problem was Akira, he likes me and claimed me for him. And that made me his property.

I wanted to believe Neji, to run to his side and feel his lips on mine, except the fact that I've been hurt so badly, I couldn't even trust anyone properly. Even Sakura.

I just stared at him, disbelieving, until Akira ripped me from his soft grip and both boys were ready to rip each other's throat out.

Akira muttered in my ear, the smell of alcohol leaking from his mouth "Tenten, don't believe him. He's a psycho. Remember his record. He would so use you, you know that, don't you?"

I let a shiver run down my back and then dared a glance toward Neji.

He looked at me simply, a small smile tugged on those really good looking lips.

How badly I wanted to run to him right now.

Akira finished, "Tenten, stay by Sakura. Don't get in the fight. I'll try to finish it fast."

I nodded like I understand but I couldn't really care less.

I ran to Sakura's side and she said "What happened? I saw Neji hold your hand until Akira took you away. What did he say?"

I tucked my hands in my pockets, feeling more cold than ever. "He said that Akira hurts me and he wouldn't."

Sakura blinked, then her jade green eyes became watery.

I frowned "Sakura?"

"Aww, that's so cute!"

"Sakura!" I whisper-yelled, slightly annoyed and infuriated.

She said "Admit it, you like him. Even just a little bit."

"All he did was say some words and look caring, there was nothing really special about him..." I mumbled under my breath but really, there was a tug in the heart strings.

And I wouldn't say it out loud...but he is pretty cute. His long hair matches his looks, if he had short hair, it wouldn't look as good though.

I hated Akira. No lie about it. He hurt me, abused me, and all I felt was emotional pain from him. He made me feel insecure. He didn't tell me I was pretty or loved. And when he's drunk, all he either wanted was pleasure or pain from me.

I couldn't hold him back or hit him.

That resulted in more punishment.

And no one could interfere, it was as if they were purposely told to stay away from me, crying out and reaching for help, for the light, and for the savior of mine.

But now I'm starting to think I don't have one.

Hey guys. I also was listening to Cody Simpson's Not Just You and started to tear up a little. I was really upset over his death. I only wished they had moment of romance before his you know... And I'm thinking, why didn't Kishimoto, the manga author, like, kill someone useless? Why Neji? WHY?! Anyway, send me the reviews. REVIEWS~~!
