Chapter 10

Lee's eyes went wide. "PARENTS?"

Lee started rambling through words, trying to figure out what was going on.

Guy put his hand on Lee's head, stopping him in his babbling. "Calm down Lee," Guy said looking at his student before turning back to Tenten's parents. "Hatsuru, Rina, it's been a while," he greeted the two, "So, you heard?"

The Hatsuru nodded, "We were waiting at the Hokage's office to give her our mission report. Lady Tsunade returned to her office after checking on Tenten. She told us what happened and we headed here."

Rina nodded. "And to think, I was hoping to finally have some time to spend with my daughter."

Lee was about to say something when Neji spoke up. "They go on mostly long distance missions, Lee. Tenten doesn't get to see them too often. Most of the time, she's out on a mission when they are home."

Rina looked over at him, "You're Neji aren't you? I've seen the pictures Tenten's put up at home. It's great to finally meet you in person."

Neji was about to say something when they heard the shifting of covers. They all looked over at Tenten. Her eyes twitched before peeking open.

As Tenten's eyes adjusted to the light, she started to sit up. Before anyone could say anything, Neji had pulled her into a tight hug. "I'm so glad your ok."

Neji released her from the hug, feeling so relieved. She looked at him confused. "Tenten, what's wrong?" he asked her, starting to get a little worried.

Tension rose in the room. Tenten looked between all the people standing in her hospital room. Soon she was back to looking at Neji. "Who…are you?"

The room became deadly silent. Everyone's eyes were staring at Tenten, except for Hatsuru's which were closed. Neji looked deep into Tenten's eyes, trying to find some glimmer of humor or some sign that she was joking. He waited for her to just burst out laughing, but the longer he waited the more of his hope faded away.

"Tenten, what…what do you mean? This is just some kinda joke…right?"

No one needed to hear an answer to know there was no joke.

Hatsuru opened his eyes and looked over at Rina. "Rina, do you think…?"

Rina looked over at him and nodded. She turned back to Tenten and sat down on the side of the bed. She put her hand on Tenten's. "Tenten, that your name," she told her as she pulled a kunai out and showed it to Tenten. "Can you remember what this is?"

Tenten looked at the kunai for a long while. Her eyes started to squint in pain. Suddenly her hands went up to her head as her body tightened up and she let out a small squeal of pain. Neji pulled Tenten into a firm, comforting hug.

Hatsuru sighed "Just as I thought." He motioned to Guy, Lee and Neji to follow him into the hall. Rina stayed with Tenten as the four walked out into the empty hallway.

"Let me explain before you start asking questions," Hatsuru told the as soon as the door closed. He waited a second before continuing. "This isn't the first time something like this has happened to Tenten, and I'm sure it's very similar to last time. First off, I should tell you that Tenten won't remember anything or anyone. Last time we thought it was a simple case of amnesia, but we soon found it was a bit more complicated. We think it might be some kind of jutsu. It seems that whenever she tries to remember something, her head starts hurting. The harder she tries to remember, the more it hurt. A few times she fell unconscious because of it."

Neji thought back to a week ago when he'd been over at Tenten's house and she fainted after a serious headache.

"We had many people examine her, including Inochi Yamanaka and Tsunade, but no one could locate, better yet break, the jutsu. Luckily, we found that Tenten relearns things very quick. Her body seams to remember how to do everything from talking to fighting just as well as before, but her mind will take a little time to get into the rhythm of her old life. All we can really do is help her relearn her life."

"Well, this can't be too hard," Lee spoke up, hoping to create a more positive atmosphere.

"You're probably right Lee," Neji agreed with him before turning back towards the room. He opened the door and walked over to where Tenten and Rina were talking. The both turned to him as he approached.

"Tenten, this is Neji," Rina told her.

"We're pretty close friends," Neji told his girlfriend as her sat down in the chair next to her bed. He could tell the she was trying to make mental note on what she was being told.

Lee, Guy and Hatsuru all still stood out in the hallway. Lee was about to walk into the room when Hatsuru spoke up. "It's probably fair to warn you that she might act a bit childish for a while." Guy and Lee nodded before the three headed into the room.

Hope you all enjoyed this chapter. I tried to not make it such a drop off ending as the last few chapters have been. Alot went on in the chapter, hope you guys got it all.

The next chapter is started and I will get it up ASAP. I have the next chapter planned to be alot happier (and for those whole love NejiTen fluff, I think you'll be happy) Till I update again,
