It Takes Three to Play
Karui paid for her breakfast and left the restaurant feeling confident. "Would you like to try our Oreo Cheese Cake young lady?" A voice called out to her as she past the stands in the streets. Karui paused and turned looking for the voice that called her. An older lady past her late sixties was about five feet from her waving her hands to get her attention. Karui bowed her head and walked to her. She repeated the question to Karui. Karui bowed her head and apologized for being full and in too much of a hurry to buy desert. The Old lady bowed her head and offered a mint cookie, this however was received with a much better reception. Karui paid for three cookies and ran to make up the distance lost by spending time with the merchant.
Sasuke bowed his head looking at the floor. "Wow is this what Naruto feels every day when Sakura tells him no?" Sasuke thought to himself. He stole a glance in Hinata's direction. Sasuke could not remember a single girl in all his life turning him down. "Why?" Sasuke found his voice after fifteen minutes in silence. Hinata looked up surprised to hear his voice. Although he wasn't sure why she would be surprised she knew he was there. "Why what?" Hinata replied. Sasuke got up and walked in front of Hinata. "Why did you act like you were interested in me?" Sasuke questioned. His face showed somewhat anger but it was actually mostly confusion. "Well someone needed to put you in your place, after all you probably leave a lot of girls broken hearted?" Hinata replied off handily.
Hinata was surprised to see Sasuke's reaction. Hinata could see a bit of anger but mostly there was something behind his onyx eyes. "Are you going to tell me you actually liked me?" Hinata mockingly pronounced the sentence slowly. Sasuke turned away from her without a word. Hinata could see why every girl fell for his act, right now it looked like he was genuinely interested. "What happened to the two girls you met yesterday?" Hinata questioned Sasuke. Sasuke turned around and looked her in the eyes. "What do you mean?" Sasuke was now very confused. "Yesterday I saw you kissing a girl with long pink hair and a blonde girl at a flower shop." Hinata couldn't help but hear her words and think it sounded like she had been following him.
Karui was thankful she bought the mint cookies they would help ensure her breathe was perfect and not smell like onions. "Remember to study them, they will be your teammates but both are from dangerous clans". Danzo's words echoed in her mind. She could not remember a time she had a single friend, a real friend not someone paid to watch her or play with her. "I can't believe I am stuck spying potential new friends!". Karui punched the wall she was next to. A man walking next to her gave her a look and walked the other way. "It's not like that I'm angry…." Karui called after the man but he just left. Karui entered the Academy's front doors. The Halls were empty but she could see there was another person late as well.
Sasuke looked at Hinata with a look of contempt and embarrassment all at once. "Are you following me around?" Sasuke replied. Hinata felt her face flush. "Of course not, yesterday I happen to run into you twice in one day, answer the question don't dodge it!" Hinata replied loudly. "I never called them, I just wanted to fool around nothing serious". Sasuke replied truthfully. Hinata moved a foot away from him and Sasuke slowly backed away. "Did you plan on doing the same with me?" Sasuke looked her directly in the eyes. "I wanted to date you ". Sasuke could see Hinata back way not expecting that answer. "I don't believe you, why me?" Hinata replied. Sasuke felt self-conscious. "Your incredibly beautiful, there is something about you that is different from all the others". Sasuke replied getting cut off before he finished.
"Because I didn't fall head over heels for you I'm the one?" Hinata mocked. Hinata sat down at the desk. Sasuke did the same. "I bet you tell every girl that". Hinata commented. Hinata focused on the board. Sasuke glanced at her. "I haven't". Sasuke replied. "Should I feel honored to be picked, after all yesterday after the girl with pink hair gave in to your charms you switched over to the blonde, you're a slime ball this will never happen!" Hinata replied with all the conviction she possessed. Hinata was now annoyed at her team's composition already, she wondered what the other teammate would be. Everyone knew teams were formed with two male students and a single female student, she had a hard time imagining the other teammate.
Karui reached out for the door to her room when she noticed another doing the same. "Karui?" Tsunade addressed her. Karui stood stunned and confused on who this person was, because they were heading to the same room it became clear she was the sensei. "Lady Tsunade?" Karui questioned. Tsunade smiled. "You're a bit late aren't you. Karui fired back a look of embarrassment. Tsunade smiled and opened the door letting her go first. "You arrived before me so that will be fine". Tsunade told Karui as she entered the room. Karui looked around a found a raven haired boy looking at her. From the side she could see a girl was in the room too, she found the boy to be very attractive.
Sasuke looked up to see the door open. A girl with dark mocha skin entered the room, her fiery red hair drew him in. She was the definition of exotic, her features were unique and she had two amazingly intense eyes he couldn't help but be attracted too. He could see Karui noticed him, he had no idea what her name was but he would find out. "Hello students, my name is Tsunade Senju I will be your Sensei for these next couple years. Sasuke immediately realized his team was unique as he had two female teammates. He gave a glance to Hinata and then looked at Karui. "If Hinata doesn't want me maybe Karui will". Sasuke thought to himself. Sasuke turned to focus on his sensei. She was blonde and looked to be in her early thirties but he heard from Itachi about each Sanin. She was known to him because of her famous affiliation to the Sanin, she looked young but was nearly twice the age she appeared. Sasuke had to admit she was beautiful with a figure most men drooled over. She was easily the most attractive sensei in the entire academy without a doubt.
Hinata watched Tsunade do introductions waiting for the beginning to end. "What would you have us call you?" Hinata pointed to her fellow teammates. "Tsunade sensei" She replied. Hinata didn't know how she felt about it but the others nodded without hesitation. "Hinata since you seem interested in names, why don't you stand here and state who you are, your dreams, your likes and dislikes". Tsunade motioned with her hands. Hinata bowed her head and did so. "I guess I asked for that". Hinata thought to herself. Hinata stood in front of the class and looked into Sasuke's eyes then Karui but returned to Sasuke. "My name is Hinata Hyuga, my dream is to hunt down the man who killed my clan and then restore it to glory, I like lavender, and I hate dogs". Hinata stared into Sasuke's eyes as she said dogs.
Tsunade could already see Sasuke had introduced himself to Hinata. "Already an hour as Teammates and Sasuke is trying to get with Hinata". Tsunade motioned Karui to Stand and do the same.
