Chapter 2: The Art of Seduction

A/N: Hey guys, anonymous reviews are now allowed so please R n R.

Hinata and Tenten arrived in the training grounds to find it empty. "Where are they?" the kunoichi with bun hair asked. "They are never late," the Hyuuga heiress started to worry.

"Hey, what are you guys doing there?" a kunoichi with pink hair waved at them. "That's not where we'll be training…" the blond haired kunoichi informed her teammates.

The four walked down the streets of Konoha. "So where will we be training?" Hinata asked the two. Ino grinned widely. "Here," she said but she kept on walking. "Here… Where?" Tenten glanced at the nearby establishments. "In the streets…" Sakura smiled at the two while the looked back at her with confusion.

"Listen… one way to test if you perfect the art of seduction is that you can stop a man in his tracks by just a glance." Ino quoted for them. "Sakura… show them," she requested her best friend.

"Alright… Hinata pick a guy," she winked at the shy kunoichi. Hinata pointed at a man wearing a formal suit and holding a briefcase. Sakura raised an eyebrow while she observed the man. "Here we go…"

Sakura made her way to the man as the tree observed her every movement intently. The man was about thirty years old above and was clearly busy with the conversation he was having in his cell phone. Sakura slowly made her near the target. She slowed down and looked at the ground as she walks. When she was side by side the target, she slowly lifted her eyes to the man, made their eyes made the briefest contact and then she averted her gaze continuing her gait. The man stopped talking and walking when he looked into her emerald orbs. His stare followed her as she walked by.

Wow… she's good. Tenten and Hinata mentally praised Sakura as they saw the reaction of the man. "See what I mean?" Ino said as she looked at her best friend that was currently walking back to them.

"Alright… I don't actually know what should go first but… I think we should first start by walking…" Sakura stated as she stood by Ino's side. "Walking?" Tenten and Hinata said simultaneously.

"Yes... you see walking is a statement of who you are. Tenten walk like the usual in front of those boys." Sakura pointed towards a group of boys about same age as theirs. Tenten did as she was told she walked in front of them like the usual. The boys backed off as they saw her coming.

"Tenten do you know those boys?" Hinata asked as she saw their almost scared reaction. "No… why?" "Alright… Hinata you're next," "H-Hai," the Hyuuga heiress unsteadily walked past the boys. The boys whoever did not even paid attention to her and kept on talking with one another.

"Hmmm, Ino show them how to do the walk," Sakura had her fingers under her chin. "Alright… watch me," Ino walked. She swayed her hips sexily but not exaggeratedly. Keeping her head high, she walked past the boys earning a few whistles and a lot of stares.

"Do you get it? It's how you show who you are. Tenten… you're walk is too masculine. It made them think you're a lesbian or something. Hinata… you're walk somehow says don't look at me I'm nobody. Ino's walk, however, declares I'm beautiful look at me." Sakura explained.

"Actually, it not walking… it's literally gliding… it's like imagining yourself light as a feather and then you… glide. Also the swaying of the arms must be lessened. Focus also on how you sway your hips… not much but not less… the facial expression also helps but we'll talk about that later." Ino gave details to make it easier for them.

"Ready? Alright let's focus on a different group. There… Tenten… Hinata… let's see your moves," Sakura winked at them as she pointed at another group of males.

Tenten was the first to try again but this time he reaction of the men were to stare and whistle. Hinata was nervous but still she did the walk. She earned a couple of whistles and many stares plus some cheers.

"Okay… next, we have the facial expressions. The most important is how your eyes react. For example Hinata your eyes avoid contact so it expresses shyness and innocence. Tenten's eyes however show determination and strength. When a person lies he usually avoids eye contact, when she is sad and lonely her eyes are weak and teary, when she is seducing someone her eyes are playful and somehow sends a nonverbal message to the person she's seducing." While Sakura was explaining the details she observed their baffled expressions.

"Alright… we'll do this practically. Ino and I will transform and make you feel the emotion you should project through your eyes. We'll be having a camera so you can look at your eyes through the photos and try to imitate it okay?" she suggested as she called Hinata first.

Sakura smiled at her and asked what she would like to see first. "Happy… I guess," ""So you want to see what your eyes look like if you're happy? Alright," the pink haired kunoichi smiled then formed a hand seal. In a puff of smoke, the Kiba appeared then grabbed her hand. "Hinata you're the most wonderful person I've ever met. Would it be okay if I say I love you?" Kiba looked into her eyes. Hinata blushed furiously and then a blinding light cut her fantasies short. "There Hinata that's how you're eyes look like if you're happy. What do you want next?" Sakura showed her the Polaroid photo.

"Sadness I think…" "Alright," in a puff of smoke, Hiashi appeared and looked at Hinata with furious eyes. "You are a disgrace in this family… I am ashamed to call you daughter." Hinata's vision began to blur then as always the flash cut her drama short. "Oh my god, did I go too far?" Sakura went to Hinata's side to wipe her tears away. "But… you know that's good because tears are a woman's best weapon… you're lucky you can still cry. I, on the other hand, already forgot how." Sakura handed her the photo.

"Alright… Tenten you're up next," Ino said with enthusiasm. "What do you want to see first?" "Disappointment I guess," Tenten muttered. In an instant, Nenji appeared and looked at her "Tenten, I'm sorry… you're only a teammate in my eyes. The truth is… I'm in love with somebody else," Tenten eyes widened then a flash again took the feeling away. "There…" Ino poised the photo in front of her eyes.

The session was so emotional that they decided to continue tomorrow. "Listen, take the photo's and practice at home in front of a mirror. You may feel stupid at first but then you'll get the hang of it," Sakura waved at them. "Just make sure nobody's looking at you while you practice or else they'll think you're nuts," Ino teased as she and Sakura walked away.

The next day, Sakura and Ino talked about lips. "Lips what are most men look at because that's where they kiss you. So sometimes to seduce a guy you have to bite you lips gently as if saying I can't wait. Pouting sends that you're a little mad and wetting your lips say that either you're nervous or you to get noticed… or… you want to get kissed. Smile is another thing. You smile slightly not revealing you're teeth. That's the sexiest smile you can give." They explained. This detail is pretty easy to learn anyways.

"Where your fingers and hands touch is also a detail, if you touch your arm with you other hand it means you're reluctant. When you cross your arms it means you're against something. When you caress your nape it means you're tired. When you're seducing a guy, you're fingers slowly glide from your face to your neck or if needed to your cleavage," Ino informed then as Sakura demonstrated it.

The two only nodded as they took mental noted on what Ino and Sakura are teaching.

That same day, the four were summoned by the hokage. "Listen, I know you're training but you also have to complete you're missions. So I'm sending you with your usual team to accomplish your assigned missions," Tsunade said as she stared out the window. "Here's a test if you're improving you're training in seduction. Try it on you're teammates… or better yet you're sensei well except for Hinata of course. If you are successful in making you're sensei blush then you're done with perfecting the art of seduction." Jiraiya suggested.

"Oh, before I forget… don't show your teammates what you have leaned in your trainings or even your improvements… keep a low profile. Just act like you were before," the hokage verbalized as they were heading towards the door.

The four sighed heavily as the exited the hokage's office. "Huh, I think I'll have difficulty making Gai-sensei blush," Tenten complained. "You think you've got problems? Kakashi-sensei's a perverted teacher so usual seduction stunts won't appeal to him. I doubt he blush even when he's having sex." The four burst out laughing.

"Ano…" Hinata started as their giggles died down. "Huh? What's up Hinata?" Ino inquired as she cocked an eyebrow. "What about me? Kurenai-sensei is obviously a girl so what should I do?" "Hmmm… I suggest… Iruka-sensei," Sakura smiled at her. "Yeah, you can make him blush either before or after your mission. Meanwhile I suggest you focus on Shino and ESPECIALLY Kiba," Ino playfully elbowed Hinata as Hinata blushed madly.

"Alright, see you guys on the next training session then…" Sakura and Ino waved at Hinata and Tenten who also waved back. "Ino… how are you going to do this?" Sakura immediately asked when they turned around. "What?" "How are you going to make him blush?" she clarified. "I don't know… I'll find a way… but Sakura you know… it still hurts when I see him with Temari," "Wounds of the heart don't heal in a blink of the eye…" the medic kunoichi quoted intellectually.

So, the four kunoichi headed off to their usual team to accomplish their task. They decided it was best to do conduct their little test when their team was camping for the night.

Team Kurenai

Target # 1: Shino

Hinata sat in front of the fire as she tried to figure on how to start the test. The ninja wearing shades, stared at her seeing the distress expressed by her eyes. "Hinata?" he broke her thoughts. "W-What is it?" she stuttered as her cheeks blushed lightly. "You've been staring into the fire for quite some time now. Are you alright?" Shino asked almost worriedly.

Wait a minute… Kurenai-sensei's left the three of us for a moment… Kiba's gathering firewood with Akamaru so that leaves… the two of us… CHANCE! Hinata swallowed difficultly. "T-The truth is…" she raised her eyes slowly accessorized by the pinkness of her cheeks. Shino's concealed eyes widened then he managed a "N-Nani…" then he saw her tongue wet her lips. "I-I want to ask you something…" her eyes looked into his shades. Shino felt warm all over as his heart beat madly against his chest. "W-What is it?" SUCCESS! She withdrew all her gestures and acted normally. "Could you go call Kiba? Dinner's ready." She smiled naturally as Shino was confused by the sudden change in her actions.

Team Azuma

Target #1: Chouji

While Shikamaru was dozing off and Azuma went away for awhile, Chouji and Ino ate rather quietly except for the loud chewing and swallowing sounds that came from no other than the one who was eating as if he'll die tomorrow. "Chouji," his blond teammate started to raise her blue eyes seductively at him. "What is it Ino? Do you have something in your eyes?" he questioned dumbly and continued his feast as Ino sweat dropped in disbelief of this guy's denseness.

WAAAAHHH! How am I supposed to make him blush when all that matters to him is food and the last piece of potato chip saying… As she was mentally complaining, her glance dropped on the almost empty potato chip pack. Ino quickly grabbed the last piece, beating Chouji to it. Everything is a weapon after all. "Ino… that's…" he was about to say as his eyes were fastened on the potato chip. She intentionally let the chip slowly touch her lips. "What is it Chouji?" she withdrew the potato chip from her lips and then playfully bit her lips accentuated by the mischievous expression in her eyes. The fat ninja's breath was coming short as he was sweating rather quickly. "Can I have the last piece?" he asked as he rose into a bright red shade. SUCCESS! Ino grinned widely as she handed him his prize.

Team Gai

Target #1: Lee

Lee was training his taijutsu in a distance from their camp. This would be easy. Tenten rose from her seat and filled her canteen with water from the nearby spring. Approaching her sweating teammate, "Lee-kun…" she called so he turned around. "What is it Tenten?" he asked as he turned around.

Tenten walked over to him as she did her walk. Lee's eyes were distracted by her hips. Her eyes smiled, "Here," she handed him her canteen. "You should be thirsty by now." He gladly accepted it and quickly drained the contents into his throat. Tenten wiped away the sweat from his forehead with her soft hands. His eyes widened if that was still possible, "Look you're sweating now… you should take care of yourself more…" she continued to wipe it with her hands as she rejoiced seeing his face gradually turning red. "H-Hai!" was his stern reply. SUCCESS!

Team Kakashi

Target #1: Sasuke

Team seven were sitting around the fire when Sakura stood up and said she was going to get some water but in truth she wanted a time alone to think of a plan. She was refilling her water gourd. How am I supposed to start when I don't know how to start? Huh… Suddenly, someone sat beside her and also refilled his canteen. "S-Sasuke… you surprised me," she said honestly.

Wait… I'm alone with Sasuke… how many chances can that be possible! CHANCE! Sakura smiled inwardly as she corked her filled gourd. She splashed the cold water in her face, then let her wet hands travel form her face to her neck. "Ah…this feels wonderful," she uttered seductively. Sasuke can't help but stare at her and to where her hands wandered. Then his gaze lowered into her open blouse which revealed a peek of her cleavage. "Sasuke, what are you looking at?" she asked as her fingers glided on her neck. "N-Nothing," he was blushing furiously now. Why did my eyes travel that far! He shook himself awake then headed back to camp. Hehe… SUCCESS!

Team Kurenai

Target #2: Kiba

Kiba returned soon after Shino and Hinata's awkward conversation. They had dinner like always and this time but soon after they dozed off. The Hyuuga heiress was thankfuk that she had to stand watch today; she had to think of a plan. Hinata looked at the sleeping Akamaru while her thoughts wandered in ways on how to make Kiba blush before she could even faint in embarrassment. Unconsciously, she was already red as a tomato and Kiba cracked one eye open to see his female teammate gazing at his dog.

"Hinata? Are you alright?" Kiba sat up and made his way to her. "K-Kiba-kun…" she was losing in this game, for she knew she was blushing furiously now. Thanks, to Kiba's close proximity. "Are you having a fever? You look red all over…" he placed his palm over her forehead making her redder still. "I'm fine, Kiba-kun… really…" she started to remove his hand but he lost his balance so he fell on Hinata and they behind the log, she was sitting on a while ago.

"K-Kiba-kun…" Kiba was leaning on his hands that were on the sides of her head. Unconsciously, she reached out her hand to touch his cheeks. His black eyes met her blank eyes for the longest of time. Kiba felt her caress on his cheeks, without hesitation his gaze traveled to her lips then back to her eyes. His right hands left the ground and started to graze the side of her face. Without hesitation, the dog ninja started to lower his head as his eye lids grew heavy. Hinata gradually closed her eyes and felt his breath on her face.

His lips brushed against hers then he drew back, staring again into her eyes. "What are you guys doing?" Shino asked as he got up. "N-Nothing!" they both yelled as they got up. Hinata side glanced at Kiba to find him madly flushing as he was making up an excuse for their previous position. That's a success… I guess… the scenes before again crossed her mind. She unknowingly touched her lips and smiled.

Team Azuma

Target #2: Shikamaru

How am I supposed to approach him after what I've done to him? This thought plagued the mind walker's conscience ever since she broke up with the shadow master. Staring into the half filled cup in her hands, she sighed maybe I can't do this test on him yet. "What's with the face?" the exact person on her mind asked. This snapped her out of her miseries and back to reality.

"It's nothing," she stammered as she starred into his eyes. Chouji was snoring loudly in one corner of the fire as the two were on the other side. Shikamaru sat by her side. "Ino…" he begun to feel awkward already. "I… I just wanted to ask you something…" he was scratching the back of his head unknowingly. Ino cocked an eyebrow nervously as her stare traveled back to her cup "Ask away…"

He gathered his confidence to hold her hand. "W-Why did you have to leave me?" his thumb stroked her shaking hands. She closed her eyes to feel the warmth from his hand then withdrew her hand. "Shika… there are many fishes in the sea… why waste your time on me?" she flashed her most beautiful yet fake smile. His heart skipped as he saw again her smile. "Shika… do your best alright," she placed as kiss on his forehead, making him red. I really don't consider this to be a success but I guess I fulfilled my objective in making him blush.

Team Gai

Target #2: Nenji

"Nenji… let's spar," his female teammate suggested. The Hyuuga protégé just stood up and went straight to the open field. I don't know just how the hell will I manage to make him see me but… I have to lower his ego for starters. She grabbed her scroll as Nenji activated his Byakkugan.

The sparring match ended with Tenten helplessly panting and Nenji confidently walking towards her. I can go serious on him but Tsunade-sama said we should keep our cover so… hey this might be a good enough chance to pass my test. As Nenji stood in front of her, she faked a faint. "T-Tenten," upon reflex he caught her as she staggered forward.

She felt him carry her bridal style. Faking a waking stunt, she stirred and then slowly opened her eyes. "N-Nenji?" she managed. "You're becoming strong Tenten…" he acknowledged but he did not look at her. She pouted then CHANCE!. "Thank you Nenji!" she wrapped her arms around his neck immediately. Nenji was stained red from head to toe. Never in his life had he been in this close proximity with a girl. But Tenten did not expect her stunt to backfire on her when she felt herself flush as well when she drew back and stared into his blank eyes.

Team Kakashi

Target #2: Naruto

"Ow…ow. That hurts Sakura-chan… be gentle," the noisy blond ninja pleaded. "Stay still or it'll hurt more," the pink haired kunoichi was applying a certain ointment on Naruto's injuries that he got from an encounter with a wild animal. "Where's Sasuke by the way?" she mindlessly applied the cream directly into his wound. The burning sensation spread to his body. "THAT HURTS!" "S-Sorry," "Sasuke said he would meditate someplace," he put on his shirt and Sakura handed him his jacket.

As she did, Naruto accidentally grabbed her hand. They both jumped in surprised as their faces grew red with their short caress. "Here," Sakura tossed him his jacket. "Thanks," he caught it and immediately put it on. I passed my test I guess… but I flushed as well… no matter… I achieved my goal. She rejoiced mentally.

"Sakura-chan…" her mental celebration was cut short. "What is it?" "A-Are you mad?" Sakura cocked an eyebrow in confusion. "Why would I be mad? You just grabbed my hand… but… I will kill you if you grabbed something 'else'," she showed him her fist. Naruto sweat dropped "N-No, that's no it," he waved his hands in front of him. "What then?" "Ano… about me and Sasame…" he began. Sakura felt she will dislike this conversation but still she listened.

"Sakura-chan… I'm sorry… I realized that what I felt for you when we were kids was merely infatuation…" he said this rather intellectually. "Don't worry about it Naruto-kun… after all I love you and Sasuke just like a brother," she half heartedly lied. It was the truth when she said she love them like a brother but in her heart. Deep down, there was a part of her that still expects Naruto to love her. That part however crashed upon his confession just now and she felt really broken. She faked a smile that could've fooled even herself.
