Inuyashagirl22: okok!
Standing before them was someone that they had not seen in a VERY long time.
"Mother?" Hinata questioned
"Yes Hinata, I'm here."
Everyone was silent and apparently thinking except for Tenten, who's expression(this is funny) was: O.o
"Tenten, why the weird look? Don't you know how to greet your own mother?" Nushimi cocked an eyebrow up as if to expect a blunt answer.
"…" -.-'
"well, anyways, I'll let you ponder on that, but for now I want all of you to come with me" Their so called flesh and blood related mother stated matter-of-factly
"why should we?" Ino stepped up
"Now now Ino, let's not get too excited" wow, a mother sarcastic? I never thought I'd lived to see the day…
Sakura giggled. The look on Ino's face was priceless, a perfect kodac moment.
Tenten apparently knew what Sakura was thinking and joined in on the giggling.
"What's so funny?" Ino turned towards them
"Nothing"
"Hmmm…." She glared at them
they smiled innocently.
"Just come, no exceptions, and besides, don't you want to get stronger so you can prove yourselves?" Nushimi turned around and started walking towards the door
O.O can she read minds?
Sasuke, Neji, Naruto, and Shikamaru(amazingly…-.-') walked down the streets of Konoha.
"I'm boooreeedd…" Naruto whined
"No need to tell us dobe" ( you can probably guess who that is)
"Shut up Sasuke-teme!"
"Would you both be quiet! I swear, so troublesome…"
"…"
they continued walking in silence with occasional girls at different stands pointing at them and giggling.(
A/N: I don't get it, y waste your time being a fangirl of someone who doesn't even know u exist?)
Suddenly, Ino came running along.
"OOO! Shika-kun!" Ino waved
"…so troublesome…"
"Shika-kun meet me tonight at 6:00 at the north gate of Konoha, no exceptions so get your lazy ass over there on time"
"…"
"good!"
o…kay…O.o
with that, Ino ran off again.
"That was weird…" Sasuke mumbled.
This time, Sakura came running up
"whoa, dajavu…"Neji thought out loud
"hm? O never mind, Sasuke, I want you to meet me at the North gate of Konoha at-"
"6:00 tonight right?"
"Um.. yes, how did you know?"
"Ino came running by here and told Shikamaru over there the same thing" Sasuke jerked his head in the direction of the lazy ass ninja.
"yah well, see ya!"
Sakura went running off.
"Ok, if that happens again…" Neji didn't get to finish his statement when Hinata came running.
"Speak of the devil…"
"N-N-Naruto-kun! I finally found you!" Hinata was panting.
"What is it?"
"I want you to meet me-"the Hyuuga heirress(sp?) didn't get to finish her sentence because of a certain annoyed Neji.
"you want him to meet you at the noth gate of Konoha tonight at 6:00 right?"
"h-h-how did you know?"
"Let's just say this isn't the first time" Sasuke and Shikamaru snickered.
"o-o-ok then… bye!" and Hinata also took off
"Ok, I swear, if this happens again I'm gonna-"once again, Neji found himself having dajavu. Because suddenly a very rushed Tenten popped up in front of them.
"Neji, noth gate tonight 6:00 sharp, don't be late" and with that she teleported away.
"this is the 3 time I've had to eat my words…"
"I wonder what they want to tell us though?"
at Tenten's house:
"gotta hurry and pack! Auuughhh!" she started throwing everything into her bag.
"Ok let's check, weapons? Check, money? Check even though I don't really need that much. Clothes? Check, other useless stuff? Check. Ok, I'm ready, gotta hurry and meet mother at gate in 1.. hour!" Tenten grabbed her stuff and jumped out of the window.
Hinata's house (more like Hyuuga mansion):
"Father!" Hinata yelled.
"What is it?"
"um… I well… I have to go…"
"to train with your mother right?"
Hinata looked up at her father, how did he know? O well…
"y-y-yes"
"then hurry and get ready, she won't wait I know that much."
"Thank you father"
Hinata ran up to her room to pack
Sakura's house:
"MOM! DAD! I'm LEAVING!" Sakura yelled
out of nowhere her parents appeared in front of her.
"your going with Nushimi-chan right?" her so-called-mother said sadly.
"…yah…"
"We'll miss you, hope that you come back soon…" her 'parents' hugged her.
"Yeah… me too…"
"Well, you'd best get moving, it's already 4:00!"
"WHAT!"
-.-'
Ino's house:
"MOM?DAD?"
"we're right behind you Ino"
Ino whipped around.
" i.. gotta go…" she whispered sadly.
"we know, Nushimi-san came for you right?"
"Uh-huh…"
"then hurry up and go, we've already packed for you."
"HUH!"
her parents stepped aside and Ino saw her luggage on the floor and ready to go.
"Whoa! Thanks!"
"that's the least we can do."
"thanks mom… dad…" Ino used the term that she used to call her 'parents' one last time.
"Bye…"
"Goodbye Ino…"
6:00!
"whew! Made it huf… huf…" Sakura was panting heavily from having run from the opposite side of the village to get to her destination.
"What took you so long Sakura?" Tenten asked.
"well, unlike you 3" she guestured to everyone "I have to run across town to get here!"
"Yah well, we almost got tired of waiting for you and were about to leave!" Ino snorted.
"You can't leave without telling Shikamaru remember?"
"…"
"Ha! Thought so…"
"Shut up! Here they come!" Tenten hissed.
Sure enough, Neji, followed by Naruto and Sasuke and Shikamaru who apparently was dragging his feet with much effort came up to them.
"Why did you ask us to come?" Sasuke questioned.
"well… I'm not saying it!" Sakura backed away.
"Me neither" Hinata stepped back
"not me" Ino did the same
"HEY! Why do I have to do it! I mean you guys are leaving too!" oops… wrong move.
"YOUR LEAVING!" Naruto shouted
"um… yes?" Tenten said hesitantly
"WHY!" this time it was Sasuke's turn to shout.
"cos' we have to"
"Which is because…?"
"well, you see that lady over there?" Tenten guestured towards Nushimi, they nodded.
"well, she'll be explaining to you, hey!" Tenten threw a kunai at her.
"Now now Tenten, no need to rush into your training, and show some respect for your mother"
"MOTHER!"
"Uh.. yah, anyways, here, she can explain to you" Tenten jumped back quickly as Nushimi slowly moved towards the group of boys
"Ok, now first of all, we're leaving, second, we're going training for 5 years, third of all we'll come back on this day 5 years later, and no use to look for us cos' you'll never find us got it?"
"…"
"but why do you have to leave? Can't you train here?" Neji began to look at the options.
"nope, no can do, the training that we plan to do must be at different sites like the ocean, the forest, and so on so on."
"no, they are not going." Sasuke stepped up
"Oh? Why don't you tell them that?"
the four girls suddenly froze.
"You won't go will you Sakura?" Sasuke pleaded.
"well…i…i…"
"What about you Hinata?" Naruto faced the white-eyed girl
"uh…ah…umm…" she began poking her 2 index fingers together again.
"Ino, do you WANT to go?"
"Well… yes… I just can't stand being weak… I'm sorry Shika-kun…" Ino casted her face down.
"If you want to go I won't stop you, but come back, because I'll be waiting"
Ino's head jerked up.
"you will?"
nod.
"Promise?"
nod.
"THANK YOU!" Ino leaped onto the pineapple head ninja.
"just come back safe and sound and we'll contnue our relationship then…"
"ok, I promise…"
with Sasuke and Sakura:
"Sakura?"
"I… i… I'm sorry… I have to go, I NEED to go, I can't get stronger here, just like you, you had to leave Konoha when you trained to kill Itachi, do you understand?"
Sakura suddenly found herself in the arms of Sasuke.
"Please come back safe… I'm begging you…"
"You're letting me go?"
"yes… I have to, I know what you mean, you can't really get stronger with people always worrying about you, but please, come back… I love you…"
Tears formed in Sakura's eyes.
"I love you too…"
With Naruto and Hinata:
"Hinata, tell me your not going…"
"I-I'm s-sorry Naruto-kun…"
tears started coming out of her eyes slowly.
"Hinata, don't cry, if you really want to go I can't stop you but please come back soon…"
"I will… I promise…"
With Tenten and Neji:
"…Why?" Neji asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
"Why do you care?"
"What do you mean: why do I care? Of course I care!"
"huh… yeah right…"
"I'm sorry…"
Tenten looked at Neji with wide eyes O.O
"What?"
"I'm sorry…"
"I just wanted to tell you I'm sorry, that's the least I can say so you won't leave having a grudge on me. But you should know that I care for you more than anything."
"…!"
Tenten took shaky steps towards Neji.
She reached out to touch him but before she could do that, he pulled her into an embrace.
"You won't forget about me will you?"
Tenten's eyes changed from a shocked to a gentle look.
She hugged him back.
"I won't, I promise, but when I do get back, you have to promise me to train with me everyday and no more cheating on me."
"promise."
"ok, you couples done now?" Nushimi was getting really irritated from having to wait for so long.
"Yeah…"
"come on. Let's go." She stepped out of the gate and continued walking.
The girls followed, but before they left the turned around and said these three words to their one and only.
"I love you…"
A/N:Ok, this is so far the longest chapter I've ever written, I hope it wasn't too stupid…lol. I got the feeling that it was a little too simple. Heh heh… anyways, I might not be able to update in a while.
R&R plez!
