A/N: Hello, everyone it's time for the fourth chapter. This is another more Temari POV chapter. I doubt this one will be as exciting as the last but it does start with a kind of confusing mind rant / somewhat kinda hot masturbation scene so maybe it will keep you interested. So yeah, enjoy.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, so who really cares...

Temari's plan had worked perfectly. She had managed to get that cute, innocent girl to have sex with her. Now as she lie alone in this unfamilliar bed she wondered if it was truly worth it. Under the wide umbrella of activities designated as 'sex' Temari had never found anything she didn't enjoy, and she figured that lesbian sex would be the same. She imagined that her first lesbian encounter should be something memorable, and that is why she went through all the trouble pursuing Tenten. She knew that, in her village she could have had any one of the young girl's who idolized her, but she wanted someone special. It seemed like a good idea and a good challenge, to force someone who was her former enemy, someone who hated her on sight, to fall for her. She was actullay expecting much more resistance, but Tenten was easier then she let on, and perhaps Temari doubted the allure of her own exotically beautiful frame.

She was expecting she would enjoy this encounter. She was not, however, expecting to enjoy it this much. She cursed herself tearfully as she found her hand glide between her legs. Could she really have found lesbian sex preferential to everything else? No, not just preferential, that encounter had blown every other encounter out of the water. She didn't understand it at all. All it was, was just touching and kissing, there was practically no penetration, no anything that normally managed to bring her pleasure.

She shouldn't enjoy this more, it wasn't right... unless she was meant to be a lesbian. But did that mean that all that time she had spent with him was just a lie. Sure their relationship had went from passionate to fragmented to practically non-existant these days, mostly as a result of his complete and utter lack of initiative, and she had every right to stop caring about him, but she couldn't just write out that whole episode of her life as something that simplywasn't met to be, when only a year ago she was certain it was her one and only future. She felt her forefinger begin rubbing against the edge of her clitoris as she began to pleasure herself. Temari never masturbated, she never needed to, but she seldom was this turned on.

This confused her even more, how could she be more turned on now then she was even in those long weeks when there was no one there to love her, and even more so then she was just prior to having sex. She had never had two orgasms in one night before, she seldom managed one, most times she just faked it. The one tonight was real and easily the most intense feeling she had ever felt, yet now it seemed her body had gotten so worked up in the process of making that girl squirm in delight as she forced her climax with her tongue that she was calling out for more pleasure and she obliged herself as she felt one of her finger's slip deep inside her core.

How she would have loved to have fufilled that girl's wish and stayed beside her this night. She would have had no need to masturbate then, that was for sure. She would have stayed too, if it wasn't for her foolish, stupid pride. She couldn't just up and tell Tenten how she made her feel. She let on a tough act, but she wasn't strong enough for something like that. Tenten... she found herself refusing to think of anything else, but that girl, her young body with it's delicate feminine curves, her face wit those deep and piercing brown eyes, her legs and the taste and warmth of the soft organ beteen them, the taste that still clung to the back of her breath. She inhaled, and slowly began to increase the tempo with which she moved her fingers, deeper and harder against every fiber of her sex, all the while thoughts of the dark haired Konoha beauty continued to trace through her mind and finally her name about her lips as she felt the intense fire of her passion burn vehemently and then fizzle out. She licked the resultant off of her hand and fingers. As she thought she realized that her game was not over the long term goal had only changed.

---

Day's passed on their journey, and Temari couldn't help but realize things had changed since that night when she had held her companion as her lover. This change however was not quite what Temari desired. There had been several nights since then and every time she was alone, and every night she pleasured herself to the thought of the girl in the neighbouring room all the while calling out her name.

The day's were different too. Tenten opened up to Temari now, she actually initiated conversations, and kept them going seemingly endlessly. Still there was no mention of that night before, the two talked as if the passionate moments between them were nothing more than a far off dream. Temari was content with this, for the moment the gentle sound of Tenten's voice was enough.

"So, Temari do you have any one speacial to you." Tenten asked happily, starting this particular day's conversation.

Temari fought every urge to say: 'yes you, you moron, you're the only one I care about,' but instead found an alternate reply.

"I did, but things aren't what they used to be between us, and our relationship seems to be pretty much over." Temari said entirely too happily considering the subject.

"Oh that's too bad, what happened?" Tenten replied feigning sadness through her smile.

Temari wanted to reply with: 'um okay, you shoud know this one, you had sex with me and I realized I'm a lesbian, and now I couldn't go back even if I wanted to,' but instead found something else to say.

"He was too lazy and laid back, and lacking in intiative, and the two of us pretty much just went our seperate ways." Temari sighed softly.

"Oh well that's too bad, I know a couple guys who I would say lack serious initative when it comes to winning me as well. I suppose your looking for something new then? So, What would your ideal lover be like?" Tenten laughed enthusiatically.

Rather then reply truthfully with 'I'm not looking for anything, I already found my ideal lover... it's you,' Temari found a sly response.

"My ideal lover would be cute, with a sexy body, unyielding drive, a truly honrable spirit, and an undying will, and would be very strong and intelligent and do anything for loved ones." Temari said shyly, sure that her statements lack of personal pronouns, and use of her prior descriptivesgave away her intent.

"Hmm, yeah, those sound like good qualities, I'm sure a guy like that would be something speacial. I hope you find someone like that someday." Tenten spoke sucessfully containing her laughter.

"Yeah." Temari replied softly.

"I think I see a village in the distance, I believe it's Iwa." Tenten said enthuiastically after awhile.

"Yeah that's Iwa, Were almost there." The blonde Suna girl replied with equal enthusiasm, relieved that the prior conversation was at an end.

The two soon reached their destination and walked through the busy streets, bustling with excitement over the upcoming event. It seemed like a happy place, though every so often Temari felt the intense glare of eyes on her person.

"I guess these people don't like us much." Temari said suddenly, as to see whether her companion had noticed this as well.

"It's me they don't like, they have a right to, with their history." Tenten replied somberly.

"Why's that? You never did anything to them. They just need to grow up and get over the past." Temari said cooly.

"Temari please don't say stuff like that. They could hear you." the other replied forcefully but quietly.

"Let them hear, they can't do anything to us. The IKC is overseen by an international commission loyal to no nation, but having an influence on all. While the IKC banner flies over this village, these people can't do a damn thing to you without serious legal ramifications." Temari sighed on smartly.

"Alright, but still I don't want to get on anyone's bad side. It looks like that is where we sign up." Tenten said sighingly.

The two walked to the registration booth in the center of the town. The crowd there was more friendly, it being consumed of international peoples. There were even a few faces familiar to Temari among the endless crowds ofspectators to be, mostly wealthy Suna buisnessmen and people of influence. The two completed their registration easily, and soon were greeted by a new presence.

"So you would be more of my possible opponents." A soft voice reached the two.

Temari turned to find herself facing a young girl, she had very long soft white hair, and wore a long flowing gray dress. She was short and thin and looked to be about ten years of age.

"Wait, a child? You mean some village has decided to enter a child?" Tenten spoke very surprised.

"Tenten! Didn't you say you didn't want to make any bad impressions. Although there's an upper age cap on the tournament, there really isn't a lower age cap... So what's your name?" Temari started with an indignant tone, and asked her question in a kind mannor.

"My name is Kohana Ishibashi." The girl spoke softly.

"Oh that's nice. So where are you from, Kohana?" Temari asked nicely.

"I call this village my home..." Kohana replied in the same low melancholy way.

"You mean Iwa's holding the tournament this year, and they don't have anything better then a little girl?" Tenten said taken aback.

"Tenten you shouldn't be so discriminating. If Kohana is representing her nation, I'm sure she must have very advanced abilities... So, Kohana don't mind my friend here, I, hope you do well." Temari spoke with a certain quickness.

"I take no offense. It is only natural to make speculations of a possible opponent. Appearances can be misleading but they are as good a place as any to start." The young Iwa kunoichi spoke somberly.

"Wow you're pretty smart, little girl. Maybe will see eachother in the tournament then." Tenten said with a smile as she patted Kohana on the head.

"I somehow doubt it. Someone like you will never make it far enough to fight me. Miss Temari, I wish you luck." The little girl spoke slowly and bitterly before turning and walking into the distance.

"Well that was mean. I don't think she likes me." Tenten said with a laugh.

"You know that girl has just as good a chance as any of us. You may not have noticed, but she had a certain look in her eyes, a sort of cold terror, I wouldn't be surprised if her abilities surpassed even my own." Temari said respectfully.

"Sure, whatever. We sholud probably go secure our rooms. The tournament doesn't start for a couple more days and we need all the rest we can get." Tenten said with a cool sigh.

"Right, let's go." Temari spoke with a hint of sadness, reminded once more of her restless nights of late, and of her unquenchable desires. Tonight would be another such night, but soon enough, if all went her way, she would have what she wanted once more.

A/N: Well yeah that's a chapter. Not a lot of anything here. Mostly just a means to conclude the trip so I can start the tournament in the next chapter. I aslo waned to introduce my other OC Kohana, I tried to make her as different from Amaya as I could, I hope she is in the very least somewhat interesting, it really doesn't matter, since the OC's in this story don't really do a whole lot but act as opponents for the girl's. I also hope you didn't mind the rambling trip into Temari's thoughts. I hope you continue to read, expect another chapter sortly.
