It's getting creepy. Okay I hope you all know how Anakin was and talked when he was fighting JedI and Obi-wan in the end. You know how? Well Tenten will talk in the same way. Use your imagination. Mine is getting limb. Well I wished it would.

Chapter 10

Breaking through.

The next day Tenten had to wear a blouse which almost had no back. Just a string to keep it in place. She didn't say anything and didn't do anything. "She's broken." Gai whispered gloomy. "Tenten, would you like to walk on the water for me." the man said. Tenten didn't react at first but then walked towards the water. "I don't see anything." Lee said. The man (Jackie) frowned. 'Is she really as strong as her sister then?'

He walked over to his bag and threw a large scroll towards Tenten. "Use it!" Tenten stared at him. "Why would I? To kill another friend?" Jackie walked towards the water and stepped in front of her.

"Let me see how you use that technique!" Tenten just stared at him. "What is he going to do?" Neji asked Tsunade. Jackie had whispered something to her and then had walked over to Tenten. Tsunade just stared tensed at them. 'I hope he won't get hurt.' she thought.

"I don't want to." Tenten replied. "Is that what you're made of?! Are you that stupid, that scared?!" Jackie yelled. Tenten frowned. "What did you just say?" Jackie grinned. "I guess Konoha ninja really are weak, or is it just you?!" Tenten's grip on the scroll tightened. She bit her lip. "Afraid to use a technique? You really are pathetic!" Tenten jumped up in anger. "I'll show you!" She threw a lot of exploding kunai towards the man. "You'll need a lot more than kunai to win against me!" he yelled at her. Lee stared at Tenten, normally she would've kept her cool, but now, it looked like she couldn't. "You'll pay for that!" The man dodged.

Tenten was getting out of breath. Neji didn't like it how she acted, like she wasn't herself anymore. "You will only be able to defeat me if you use that technique." Jackie said. Tenten grew angry even angrier than she already was. She took her scroll put it in front of her and formed some seals. One scroll turned into four scrolls. "a kage technique?" Lee asked. Tenten once again formed some seals and then there was a huge explosion.

Four dragons rose from where Tenten was. Tenten jumped up. She grabbed some special weapons and threw it to the man. He disappeared and appeared right behind her before she could complete the technique. She turned around.

Tenten opened her eyes. The man sat right in front of her. "How did you block my technique?" she asked. "Tenten it's time to drop your façade." he whispered to her. "What are you talking about?" Tenten asked with an angry blush on her cheeks. "You can stop pretending to be strong, you can be yourself again." Tenten stared at the water. "Are you sure about that?" she whispered scared. Neji, Lee, Gai and Tsunade ran over to them. "You can drop your mask." he said. Neji stared at Tenten. She was obviously afraid of something. 'What is that?' Neji thought when he saw some sort of seal on her back. Tenten's hands shook and tears filled her eyes. "You have to become Tenten again." Tsunade said. "Can I?" Tenten said with a shaking voice. Neji walked over to her, kneeled and put a hand on her shoulder. "What do you want to do now?" Jackie asked. Tenten stared at him. "I, I want to stay in Konoha, with my team." she said silently. They heard something break. "You broke the seal Tenten." Jackie said. "You did it."

Neji walked over to the office of the hokage, together with Lee and Gai. "What did you want to talk about?" Gai asked immediately. "About what happened yesterday." Tsunade said. "Jackie explained what that seal was. It's some kind of barrier to hold out most of the pain." Lee stared at her. "Isn't that a good thing?" Tsunade stared at a paper she was holding. "It would be if you could actually use it without bringing your personality into danger. But you become angry really quickly and you just lose it." "I don't understand." Gai said. Tsunade sighed. "In order to protect herself from pain, Tenten tried to become different. She tried to turn into some figure they asked her to be." She turned to her window. "Jackie wants her to do some missions with her team like she used to, so she can get used to being Tenten again." Tsunade smiled. "You guys are a lot more important to her than you would expect."

"What was that all about?" Lee asked. Gai smiled. "It means, that our Konoha flower will be with us for a while." Neji smiled. "She can become herself once again." Lee smiled. "I guess that's a good thing." Tenten was waiting at their training ground. "Since when are you guy's so slow?" she said with a smirk. Neji smirked back at her. "Let's get started then."

"You have a mission in the country of water. You have to escort a politician." Tsunade turned to them. "You will bring him there and bring him back after two weeks." Tenten smiled. 'I will be on a mission with them again.' she thought happily. Tsunade turned to Tenten. "Jackie will come with you and will train you." Tenten's eyes widened. "Is he going to teach me? Why?"

Wow this is my first multiple chapter story and I'm already at ten! Cool.

I don't even know how to explain what will happen in the next chapter. It's not too boring, nor too, well, see for yourself. J
