I don't know where did she go, since I deactivated my Byakugan, that is.
I withdrew my shuriken and grabbed a kunai instead. My eyes scanned for the area. I finally found Tenten, she was sitting on a branch of a tree, setting her weapons stringed by some thread.
(Third Person's/Narrator's POV)
"What a foolish girl, indeed!" Hanagura whispered to the wind, "Leaving the boy behind!"
Hanagura disappeared in his hiding place, the bushes. He stealthily crept behind Neji.
'Is this the boy so-called strongest? He doesn't even have the slightest idea that I'm behind him!' His inner self pointed out.
Hanagura raised his kunai. Neji saw the shadow and quickly turned to his back.
"DIE, HYUGA NEJI, DIE!!!" Hanagura spoke.
Neji's eyes widened and they closed when Hanagura motioned his arms downward.
But he didn't feel any harm... He opened his eyes only to see Tenten was stabbed. His eyes widened at the sight.
"Don't you dare lay a finger on him, bastard..." she muttered, "I'd have to die first before he does... Get those screwed in your head..."
"I'd love to see a woman die!!!" Hanagura yelled.
Hanagura kept the kunai near to her collarbone and released the grip. Tenten fell backwards but Neji was able to catch her fall. He gritted his teeth and sat down to lay her body on the grass. Tenten's eyes were shut. Neji was on the verge of tears as he clenched his fists and he was trembling in guilt.
'Tenten, rest assured. I'll get him for that! I'll make him pay!' Neji thought.
"BYAKUGAN!" Neji shouted as his veins popped out near his eyes.
"It feels good to kill a woman!" Hanagura disgustingly said.
"YOU!!!" Neji spoke, "I'LL GET YOU FOR DESTROYING MY LIFE!"
"Bring it on, kid." Hanagura said.
When Tenten opened her eyes, she can only hear kunais banging and throwing anger on someone. She closed her eyes again...
She opened her eyes only to find out that she was in a hospital room. Outside the hospital room...
"She's going to be fine." Sakura comforted the Hyuga boy who was walking around in circles for the whole time.
"Anyway, Sasuke-kun, I have to go. Okasan's waiting for me at home. Bye!" Sakura bid as she left the two rivals alone.
"You know, this wouldn't have happened if you weren't weak." Sasuke spoke. Neji stopped walking and faced Sasuke, "What did YOU just say?"
"You heard me. I said 'this wouldn't have happened if you weren't weak!' Are you getting deaf, Hyuga?" Sasuke told Neji.
"How am I weak? I'm a Hyuga. I'm never weak." He replied, giving Sasuke a death glare.
Sasuke smirked and crossed his arms on his chest, leaned on his chair and placed his leg over the left and replied,
"You don't know what keeps me stronger. After training, I don't always get the strength that I need to move on, the strength I need to believe. Do you want to know what keeps me strong, huh, Neji?"
