On With The Chapter

Story of a Girl

A Mission

After two weeks, with the help of the cast and great medics, Ino was back on her feet. She was more than happy to be rid of the horrible cast. To celebrate, Ino and her team, and Tenten and her team, went out to eat. They went out to the barbeque place. Ino sat down and Tenten sat next to her. Neji took the seat next to Tenten. Lee sat next to Neji. Choji sat next to Ino, and Shikamaru sat next to Choji. "I'm glad you got out of that cast, Ino-chan. It is so unyouthful." Lee shouted. "Umm, thanks?" Ino said. "Yeah, you were so troublesome." (a/n hmmm I wonder who that could be) Shikamaru moaned. At this Ino stalked over to him and whacked him in the back of the head. He screamed in pain, and she walked back to her seat with a smiled plastered on her face. Everyone laughed at this. Then the waitress came over, they ordered and went back to their conversation. Later the food came. Then within seconds of its arrival, half of it disappeared. All eyes turned to Choji. He was chewing, then he stopped when he felt all the eyes. He smiled and some food fell out of his mouth. "Ewww that is so gross, Choji!" Ino yelled. He closed his mouth. Tenten looked away, Shikamaru rolled his eyes, and Neji looked disgusted.

After the trauma they ate the food. When they were done everyone was full. (except Choji) Then came the most sireous question. "Who's paying?" Choji asked. They all looked at each other. "I will." Neji and Tenten said at the same time. Tenten looked at him and blushed. "I will." Neji said strongly. "Ok." Tenten said, still blushing a little. Ino smiled at this. Lee, Shikamaru and Choji looked confused. They passed it off as a timing thing and went back to talking about boy stuff. After the bill came, Neji paid, and they left. On the walk they were stopped by a Chunin. "Hyuga Neji, Yamanaka Tenten and Rock lee, Hokage sama wants you." He said. "Hai." Neji answered for the team. Then the Chunin left. "Wonder what Hokage sama wants." Ino said. "Probably a mission." Neji said plainly. "Ino, would you tell mom and dad that I'll be home later?" Tenten asked Ino. "Sure." Ino replied. She hugged her sister then left with her team. "Let's go." Neji ordered.

When they got to the tower, Anko was there again. "Can I help you?" She asked. "We were summoned by Hokage sama." Neji said calmly. "Ok, go on up he is just in his office." She said. When they were gone she went to the window and pulled the curtain away to reveal a certain masked jonin. "Shall we continue?" She asked. He nodded.

Upstairs the three ninja knocked on the door. "Come in." Was the response. Inside the Hokage was standing by a window looking out. He was watching the academy kids playing ninja. "Hyuga Neji, Yamanaka Tenten, and Rock Lee reporting." Neji said. "Oh yes. I have a mission for the three of you." He started. "I want you three to go to the Land of Rice, and retrieve a scroll for me." He explained. "This mission, should you choose to accept, is a C-ranked mission." He looked at them, they all looked very confident. "We accept." Neji spoke for the team. Sarutobi looked at Tenten and Lee. They nodded to him. "Very well, you leave tomorrow morning." He said. "Pack what you need and be at the gates at 6. Dismissed." He said. They turned and left. They left the tower and walked along the road. "I am going to pack. See you in the morning, my youthful teammates of youth!" Lee shouted as he ran off. That left Tenten and Neji alone. "I wonder how long we'll be gone." Tenten wondered aloud. "Not long, it is only a C-rank.' Neji stated. Tenten smiled.

They walked a while longer, when they passed a young trio. It was team 7. Naruto was whining about something. Sakura was glaring at him, and Sasuke had his head in the clouds. "I can't believe Kakashi sensei would not show up. I know he's always late but he never doesn't show up." Naruto complained. "It is kind of weird." Sakura said. "Hey Sasuke-kun, what do you think Kakashi sensei was doing all day?" Sakura asked him. He grunted and turned away. "You should have trained to day instead of wondering where he was. It would help you a lot if you had trained and not complained." He said sourly, then walked off. "Ha ha Sasuke teme is rhyming!" Naruto yelled. "Shut up Naruto!" Sakura shouted, and then punched and stalked off in her own direction. Tenten was trying so hard not to laugh at what she just overheard. Neji rolled his eyes and muttered "Weak." Then he walked Tenten home.

The sun was just setting when they got to the doorstep. "Thank you for walking me home." Tenten said. "No problem." Neji said. They stood there for a minute, then Tenten rolled her eyes and pulled Neji into a kiss. When they let go Neji was dazed. By the time he broke out of it Tenten had gone inside. He turned around and walked home.

Tenten smiled and was blushing like crazy as she watched him walk away in a daze. She walked into the kitchen and sat down to eat. Inoichi saw her red face and jumped up. "Are you ok honey?" he asked frantically feeling her forehead to see if she was sick. "Yes dad." She said. He looked at her and was about to ask another question when Ino asked. "What did Hokage sama want?" She winked at her sister, and Tenten smile. "I'm going on a mission tomorrow. To the Land or Rice to retrieve a scroll." She said as she began eating. "That sounds interesting." Karin said.

After Dinner Tenten went upstairs to pack. She packed most of her weapons, some clothes, some scrolls, and a hairbrush. She took a shower, changed and got into bed. She looked at her dresser and saw something shine. She got and grabbed her necklace. She looked at the kunai and the clover charm. She smiled as she remembered when her sister gave her that charm. She smiled put it on and went to bed.
