xPrincessKagurax: I have returned with a new chapter.

Anna: At least it didn't take as long as last time.

xPrincessKagurax: Yeah, good point.

Anna: Are you going to update faster?

xPrincessKagurax: Why am I being lectured by my own OC?

Anna: Why ask me?

xPrincessKagurax: I don't know. I also don't own Naruto.

Anna: But you do own me.

xPrincessKagurax: I know.

Tsunade sat behind her desk as she stared at Naruto, Hinata, Tenten, Neji, Sasuke, Karin, Jugo, and Suigetsu.

"So, why are we here?" asked Naruto. "And more importantly, why is Sasuke back?!"

"Hn," mumbled said Uchiha.

"The eight of you are here because you have all either met with Anna or had a connection with someone who did," said Tsunade. "Sasuke is here because of Sakura. Now, someone tell me, how did this start?"

Hinata spoke up. "I was the first one out of us to see Anna."

"And how did you find out about her?"

"I heard some girls talking about how Anna helped them."

"I see. Then, you told the others about her."

"Yes."

"Now, tell me about this Anna."

"See only meets you at night," said Tenten. "Behind Yamanaka Flowers. She always wears this cloak, so you can't see her face. Anna only communicates through letters. She can get you a date with whoever you want but she takes something of yours."

"Actually," cut in Karin. "She won't make a deal with just anyone. I went to ask with a date with Sasuke and she wouldn't agree to it."

"Interesting," said Tsunade.

"I think Anna knows me. She knew my name but I didn't tell her it. I don't know who she is though."

"She could know all our names," countered Tenten. "Hinata found a note from Anna in her room and she didn't tell her name either."

"Sakura also got a note and she didn't tell Anna," said Hinata.

"Anna is one strange girl," said Tsunade more to herself than to anyone in the room. "You are free to go." They left and Tsunade turned towards Shizune. "Call in Ino."

"You wanted to see me, Lady Tsunade?" asked Ino, when she came in.

"Yes. Do you know anything about Anna?"

"I've heard some things here and there, but I don't know that much."

"Anna is a girl who can get people a date with almost anyone they want. She appears at night in the alley behind your family's flower shop."

Ino looked surprised. "I had no idea she was that close to me."

"Ino, I want you to make a deal with Anna. She obviously has a large amount of chakra and I don't trust her."

"What deal?"

"Ask for a date with someone. It doesn't matter who. Afterwards, we'll track the chakra on whoever the other person is."

"Alright, I understand."

"Good."

It was around midnight when Ino went to the alley behind the flower shop. She never really realized how creepy it was until now. Out of the shadows came a figure in a cloak.

So this is Anna, thought Ino.

You were looking for me? came Anna's reply.

"Yes, I was."

Who would you like a date with?

"I would like a date with Sai. And the price?"

It seems you know more about me than most people do. Your price will be decided later.

"Is that it?"

Yes. Have fun with Sai.

Ino blinked for a second, only to have Anna disappear.

"That girl is very strange," said Ino, leaving, unaware that someone was watching her.

The next night, Ino was working at the flower show, thinking about last night. I wonder how long it takes for her chakra to work. I hope it's soon. I really do like Sai but I don't know if he likes me. If Anna really can help others, why should she be considered a threat? Well, she's extremely creepy, doesn't talk, and doesn't show her face. That's not a crime though.

Ino sighed. I shouldn't be thinking all this. My mission is to help track down Anna.

"Ino?" asked someone.

She looked up and saw Sai smiling at her.

"Oh, hey," she said. "I didn't see you there."

"I could tell. I was trying to talk to you for a few minutes, but you weren't paying attention."

"Sorry, I was thinking about something. So, why are you here?"

A slight blush appeared on Sai's face, but it disappeared as quickly as it came. "I came to buy some flowers," he said, picking up a few roses and giving her some money.

"I see. So, are they for anyone special?"

"Actually, yes."

"Oh, really. Who?"

Sai blushed again. "They're for you," he said, holding them out for her.

"You didn't have to buy me flowers. My parents own the shop."

"I know but I didn't know how else I'd ask you?"

Now, it was Ino's turn to blush. "Ask me what?"

"Do you want to go see some fireworks with me? They're going on right now."

Ino hugged him. "Of course! Let's go."

They walked outside and saw bright red, purple, and pink explosions in the sky.

"This is beautiful," said Ino.

"Ino?" asked Sai.

"Yeah?"

He tilted her head up and kissed her.

Wow, this night is awesome, thought Ino. She reached for the flower that Sai had given her, only to find that it was gone. Aww, that's too bad. I wonder what happened to it.

XxXxXxXxX

"And the fireworks were so beautiful," said Ino.

"Can you try not to get off topic?" asked Tsunade.

"I'm sorry, but it was just so wow."

"Uh, Lady Tsunade?" asked Shizune, opening the door. "A package came for you."

"Well, bring it in," she said. Shizune put the box on the desk. "So, who sent it?"

"That's what I wanted to tell you."

The three of them looked at what it said on it.

To: Tsunade & Ino
From: Anna

"From Anna?" asked Ino.

Tsunade opened the box and inside was a few roses and a note.

I do not like being tricked. Here's your refund. My chakra spell on Sai is worn off and he will have no memory of last night, but he will still remember that you two are dating.
-Anna

xPrincessKagurax: Okay, maybe that chapter could have been better.

Anna: -sarcasticly- Really?

xPrincessKagurax: To anyone who may be reading this, I need some help. I kinda ran out of ideas for couples. If anyone has any suggestions for the next couples, please send them in.

Anna: You're the author! You're supposed to know what'll happen in this story!

xPrincessKagurax: -mad- Well, sorry.

Anna: -sigh- I guess we'll see you in the next chapter.
