Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but if I did, Tenten would be a much more major part, and she would've kicked Temari's ass (though I really don't have a problem with Temari).
-Wow, my reviewers are sooooooooo cool! Thanks to:

HimeHikari, MingShun.
-You guys are the coolest, and I want everyone to give them their just respect, as my first reviewers for this story! Hail the reviewers! Ok, now on with the story!
…..
-Normal Pov.-
"So, shall we get started?" Tenten asked again, after receiving nothing but stares from the other teens.
"Hmph. Who do you think you are? Do you honestly think that changing your look will make you stronger, or more popular with the guys? You aren't pretty enough to get attention from boys, and by the way, your outfit looks ridiculous!" Sakura smirked as she said this, but her smirk was replaced be a look of surprise at the cold, calm look she received from Tenten.
"At least I don't have to walk around in next to nothing to feel good about myself."
"Ah! You little…Neji-kun! Did you hear what that whore called me? …Neji-kun, aren't you gonna' make her pay?" Sakura looked expectantly at Neji to find that he was smirking in amusement.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Looks like you'll have to avenge yourself. Oh well, I'll understand if you don't want to…after all, you might break a nail." Tenten smirked as Sakura let out an indignant growl.
"Like I'm afraid of some low-rate kunochi!" She shouted. At this Lee, who had gotten over Sakura when she became a slut, started for her, angrily. Tenten stopped him, putting her arm out. She'd never looked calmer.
"Now, now Lee-kun, there's no need for you to get into this. If Sakura needs to insult people to make herself feel strong, then let her. There's absolutely no reason to respond to such a pathetic insult."
Tenten turned to Sakura, pulling a kunai out of no where, and getting into a ready position. Sakura just stared at her blankly. In this time of peace, there hadn't been many missions, and as Sakura was a medic Nin now, she didn't have to fight at all.
"Well, are you going to fight me or what?" Sakura jumped at the venom in Tenten's voice, and quickly got her self into position. (A/N: just for some back round info, Tenten, Lee, and Neji are all on the same ANBU team, and thus they still train together).
Sakura growled, as she shot towards Tenten. Performing quick hand motions, she summoned three shadow clones, and they each charged Tenten. Tenten merely smirked, lightly twirling her kunai; she threw it towards the middle Sakura.
"Eeep!" Sakura dropped back in surprise. She looked at Tenten in surprise, then, smirking (A/N: wow, a lot of smirking here, isn't there! They shouldn't hang around Neji so much. XD) she pulled her hand back, revealing chakra strings. Instantly, hundreds of kunai and shuriken flew towards Tenten.
Registering this, Tenten realized there was no way for her to dodge them all. Quickly she pulled out a fuma shuriken, and began to twist it around and around, until it was a blur of blades on her hand. Holding it out, she felt many of the weapons crash into it, and go spinning off. Those that she didn't deflect missed her by a long ways.
The rain of weapons stopped just in time for Tenten to notice an irate (furious) Sakura flying towards her, katana in hand.
Tenten dodged Sakura's attack, and focused chakra to her feet. In an instant she had Sakura pinned to a tree, and the kunai pressed softly to her neck.
"Well what do ya' know, looks like I win." Tenten smirked as Sakura growled at her. She released Sakura, and back flipped away, landing gracefully a few meters away.
"Wow, Tenten-chan, that was amazing! When did you learn to do that?" asked Lee, practically hopping beside her.
"What, use a fuma shuriken? Come on Lee-kun, I'm a weapons misstress, how could I not know how to use one?" she laughed at his eager face.
"No, not that, how did you learn to spin it like that, last time I checked, fuma shuriken weren't supposed to do that." Tenten just laughed. Unknown to them, though, someone was watching them.
……
-After Training-
Tenten waved a cheery good-bye to Lee, and left the training grounds. As she walked, she sensed someone behind her. Figuring it was Sakura, she pulled out a kunai and began to twirl it; a silent threat. When the person continued to follow her, she turned abruptly and launched the kunai.
"Whoa! What was that for?" came the familiar voice of one Uchiha Sasuke. (A/N: Sasuke killed both Orochimaru and Itachi, though with the help of Naruto, and was welcomed back into the village).
"Sasuke-san? Why were you following me?" she asked, confusion etched into her face. Sasuke had become an ANBU, and was in Naruto's group, as he was no longer a psycho, power obsessed avenger. He was actually a pretty nice guy (A/N: Oh my god! It's the end of the world! No, I'm just kidding XD).
"I saw how you beat Sakura, and I wanted to congratulate you." He said, smiling lightly.
Wow, he's actually, kind of hot when he smiles…uh-oh, I don't need another crush right now, I'm having enough trouble getting over Neji!
"Uh…Tenten-san, you okay?" He asked, waving a hand in front of her face. Tenten blushed.
"Huh! Oh, yeah, I'm fine. What were you saying Sasuke-san?" she asked, fighting off her blush.
"I was saying I was really impressed with your skill, and wondered if sometime you'd like to go out sometime?" Tenten was surprised to find that he was blushing (A/N: for those of you who don't know what pairings I like, I suggest you check out my profile, but for those of you who don't know, I love Tentenx Neji, I do, however, like pairing Tenten up with others, during the story. Also, Sasuke's majorly ooc, but it's intentional, please don't review about it).
SHIT, WHAT DO I DO NOW? Wait, dating Sasuke might help get my mind off of Neji.
"Sure Sasuke, I'd like that a lot." Tenten smiled, "Where and when?"
"How about Itchikaru's at seven tomorrow?" he smiled back (A/N: ...The Apocalypse!).
"Sounds great, I live in the apartment building on the corner of thirty-ninth, near the park."
"Then I'll see you then." He said, and in a second he was gone. Tenten turned and walked home, feeling happier even than she had after beating Sakura.
Tomorrow is going to be very interesting.

/preview of next chapter/
Neji's byakugan was activated, and Sasuke's sharingarin was as well. The two launched at each other, when Tenten stepped in between them.
"STOP!" The two boys skidded to a stop, as the other ninjas (A/N: the rookie nine, the sand siblings, and Lee) watched them in surprise.
"You're not dating her, so it's none of your business if she's dating me." Sasuke stated coldly, turning back to Tenten.
……
A/N: Okay, I hope you liked it. I've decided Tenten is going to end up dating a couple guys, so you guys can vote. Here are the options: Gaara, Shino, Sasuke…well she's already dating him, Kankuru (sp?), Choji. Okay, please REVIEW and tell me what you think, and who you want her to be with next…and or with longer (in Sasuke's case).
