Neji crept along the corridor silently, trying to appear as casual as possible. Temari, Temariā¦ah, he would get his revenge this time for hurting Tenten so badly!
"Byakugan," he murmured, summoning his very useful kekkei genkai to scan the area.
With his Byakugan, locating Temari was more than easy. Right now, Temari was in her room, removing the iron fan from her back. Now that the first round of the Chunin exam was over, she undoubtedly thought it time to rest a little.
Her brothers Gaara and Kankuro were much further away, making Neji's job much safer and simpler. If either of them were there, especially the fearsome Gaara, Neji was not too sure he would have risked it.
Smiling to himself, Neji raised a hand and knocked politely on Temari's door.
"What?" Temari yelled out. "Who's there?"
Clearing his throat softly, Neji tried his best to imitate Kankuro's voice.
"It's me, Kankuro. I've got something to tell you, Temari. Come on out."
"Coming." Temari sounded less than pleased as she pushed the door open. "What now?"
"Take this!" Resuming his normal voice, Neji pinpointed a chakra point near Temari's heart with his Byakugan and mercilessly struck at it with his Gentle Fist style. "I told you I'd avenge Tenten, didn't I? Who told you not to believe me?"
Gasping with shock, Temari staggered backwards, clutching her chest.
"It's not over yet, Temari." Using Gentle Fist style again, Neji effortlessly pinpointed a few more chakra points on Temari's body, and mercilessly struck.
Blood seeped out of Temari's mouth. Gasping, whimpering with pain, Temari finally collapsed weakly onto the floor.
"Good riddance, Temari," Neji muttered, bending down to pick her up before dumping her unceremoniously onto her bed. He wouldn't have to worry about much, that was certain. Nobody would know who was responsible; there would be no marks on her body for anyone to find. "Don't say I didn't warn you."
Smiling cheerfully to himself, proud of his accomplishment, Neji left the room softly and shut the door behind him.
