City Life

Chapter 4: Neji and Co.

(Monday, January 10th, second semester)

Tenten jerked as she heard another crash. She held onto her books tightly and leaned against the wall, not wanting to be discovered. But also being way too curious to see what was going on, she made a brave move to poke her head out the wall.

"So, are you doing it or not?" a boy with raven hair said as he pushed a short nerdy looking boy to the ground.

"But, but, I don't have it," The boy stuttered.

"Well go get it," A boy with red hair said, leaning on the wall, "and be quick."

"But, but it's a-at my house," the boy whimpered.

"Go home and get it!" a spazzy blonde boy screamed.

"But, but, my house is re-really far," the little boy shrank more and hid under his books.

"Well, start running then," the boy that Tenten knew as Neji said.

"B-but, I…" the little boy started to say when…

"Hey! What are you guys doing here!?" a teacher popped out of nowhere.

Neji turned his head lazily and returned his attention to the boy, "so are you gonna go get it or not?" Neji said ignoring the teacher.

"Hey!! Don't you dare ignore me!" the teacher screamed.

"Shut up!!!" the blonde boy screamed back to the teacher.

"Who do you think you are talking to me like that?!" Tenten could see the steam floating on top of the teacher's head.

"Whatever," the raven haired boy said turning his back to the teacher.

"So hurry up and go get it," the red haired boy said stabbing his finger in the boy's chest.

The boy quickly stood up and scrambled to the door. But since the teacher was there, he was blocked.

"So, boys, give me one good reason why I should let you guys bully him around," the teacher questioned as he walked towards Neji and his friends.

"Well, why shouldn't you? I mean, you do know who we are right?" the raven haired boy smirked deviously.

"Who can you guys be?" You're probably just a bunch of spoiled kids that only got into this University because your parents won the lottery," the teacher said casually.

The red haired boy came up to the teacher and looked at him darkly before he landed a heavy punch to the teacher's stomach. Tenten gasped at the sight.

"Since we feel so sorry for you because your guess was so wrong, we'll tell you who we are," the blonde boy smiled evilly.

"Our fathers are the one's who created this school," Neji said, "without them, you probably wouldn't be here. We go by the names, Hyuuga Neji,"

"Uchiha Sasuke,"

"Uzumaki Naruto,"

"and Sabaku no Garra. Oh yeah and next time, we won't be so kind." With that, Sasuke came over and threw the teacher on the ground. Just as he was about to land another punch, he was cut off by the screaming of a girl.

"STOP!!"

The four boys turned their heads and saw a girl with chestnut brown hair running towards them. She was indeed Tenten.

Tenten ran to the teacher and looked at the four boys, "Why are you guys doing this?"

"Cause he's being nosy," Naruto responded.

"About what? You guys torturing the poor kid over there?" Tenten looked at them with determined eyes.

"Seriously, what's wrong with you?" Sasuke asked.

"I think I should be the one asking you that, just because you have some money in your pockets, it doesn't mean that you can just start bossing everybody around." The four boys raised their eyebrows at Tenten's incompetence.

"Pshh," Garra crossed his arms and smirked.

"You think you're so cool right? You think you're so great right? You think you're do brave that you can just randomly go around and torture people right? Well guess what, you aren't any of those things. You're just spoiled selfish brats living off your father's fame and fortune!" Tenten shouted.

"Hn," Sasuke walked towards Tenten as she slowly backed away. She accidentally tripped over her own foot and fell back.

Sasuke knelt down so he was at Tenten's level, since you're so brave, I think you won't mind taking a hit for the teacher," Sasuke smirked evilly as he raised a fist preparing to punch.

Tenten covered her face with her arms and winced as Sasuke was about to punch her. But after a while feeling no pain, she slowly opened her eyes and saw Neji beside Sasuke holding onto his fist.

"Hey! What's wrong with you?" Sasuke scowled at Neji, "let go!!"

What kind of wimp are you? Hitting a girl?" Neji frowned.

"You know, I kinda have to agree with him," Naruto came up and put a hand on Sasuke's shoulder.

"Yeah, come-on, forget about it, let's go," Garra said.

"Fine," Sasuke scowled as he turned around and left followed by Garra and Naruto.

Neji took a step towards Tenten and held out his hand. Tenten looked at him warily before she put her hand in Neji's and allowed him to pull her up.

"Thanks," Tenten mumbled looking at her feet.

"Hn."

"Hey Neji! Hurry up! What's taking you so long?!" Naruto shouted to Neji from down the hall.

"Coming!" Neji shouted back to Naruto before he turned his head back to face Tenten.

Neji smirked at Tenten one more time before he turned and left.

Tenten stared at him dumbfounded as she watched him walk farther and farther away from her.
