Chapter 3: Sleepover Gone Wrong

TenTen's P.O.V

I didn't actually think Neji would help me with my problems I was having. He usually tells me stuff about fighting and tips to become stronger and all that other important stuff. Or he just gives me a" Hn" and that's it. Conversations over. Well it's thanks to him for giving me the idea of having a sleepover, it's better then going back to sleep and teleporting into another dimension and almost getting killed by someone you don't even know.

I then tried focusing on getting home instead of thinking what neji told me. I was walking down the dark and scary street thinking 'god, why didn't neji offer to walk me home or something'. I hurridly walked down not wanting to be out to late cause there are those stupid people at night who...well you know. My house was on the corner of the block so I started walking a little faster. But then suddenly I heard something that made me stop dead in my tracks.

It sounded like foot steps getting closer and closer, So I turned around slowly wishing it were Neji or someone I knew but...There was nobody.

'Come on,' I said to myself' you could get through this, you were just hearing things, don't worry, your house is just a couple of minutes away'. I looked around me one more time before I turned back around to go home. The only thing that I saw was the leaves being slowly picked up in the wind. I didn't see nothing else, nobody.

So I walking going home again, but this time I wasn't walking, I was running. I could still hear the footsteps behind me but I didn't stop and turn, I just kept running to my house. Within minutes I reached my picked white fence. I yanked oped the gate and ran through the yard running up the stairs of my house, skipping three steps at a time. I was on my porch and was getting nervous thinking the one who was chasing me was gonna grab me and pull me away from the house. I simply reached for my keys in my pocket and pulled them out quickly. I stumbled with the keys and accidently dropped it. I bent down and grabbed the keys, choosing the right one this time, and stuck it into the keyhole. But the problem was...The door was already unlocked.

"What the..." I said to myself" I thought I locked this door before I left. I know I did."

I slowly opened the door and walked in. Then I just realised that someone was chasing me so i quickly went into the house and slammed the door closed. I let out a sigh of relief thinking I was safe in my own home. But I wasn't. Right when I slammed the door shut and turned around, I saw a black shadow at the end of the hallway and in a split second, it dssapeared. My heart was racing right now. I didn't know what to do. I was scared, petrified. Then all of a sudden...

"Riing"

Once I heard the phone ring, I jump up quickly.

"Riing"

"Riing"

I didn't know whether to answer it or not. I was to scared to even move.

"Riing"

It rang a fourth time as I finally decided to answer it. I picked up the phone that was hooked up to the wall on the side of me and I slowly brang it to my ear.

"H-hello" I stuttered

No answer

"Hello" I repeated

Still no answer

I hung up the phone and backed up slowly. I took a big gulp as my eyes focused on the phone. Once again it started ringing.

Riing

Once again I was to scared to move. I falt as if my heart stopped.

Riing

'maybe it's one of the girls or it could be neji to see if I got home safely' I thought to myself

Riing

'or maybe it's not' I then inched my way to the phone. I slowly picked it up and placed it on my ear.

"Hello" I said once I picked it up.

Still no answer

"HELLO!" I said with anger in added to my voice.

nothing

I then slammed the phone back on it's charger. I was getting kinda mad now. It keeps ringing and no ones picking up. Weird.

Riing

Instantly I picked up the phone holding my anger and said "Hello"

But no one answered

"Who the hell is..."

She got cut off by a guys deep voice on the other line of the phone " I told you not to go near her, now you will pay the consequences."

In an instant I quickly hung up the phone. I was petro right now. I was starting to freak out. I coudn't controll my self any longer.' where's neji when you need him the most' I thought to myself

Riing

I grabbed the phone and screamed through the phone almost in tears because all the strange things that's been happening" WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?" I screamed.

"Tenten?"

Tenten felt a huge weight lift from her shoulders as soon she heard neji's voice on the other line

"Neji!" I was so happy I heard his voice. I felt like nobody could touch me, like I was invincible or something.

"What happened, are you alright?" I heard him getting anxious on the other line like he wanted to fight someone for messing with me. He then continued" I tried calling earlier but the phone kept ringing."

'That's impossible'I thought' I picked up the phone and no one answered, except for...'

"Tenten!" neji said almost in a scream snapping me back to reality.

"Wha-oh nothing happened, I'm fine." I lied.

I didn't want him to worry, not for me that is.

"You sure?" he asked

"Yeah dont worry about me, I'll be okay. So anyway, what happened? Why'd you call?" I asked trying to change the subject.

"Hinata and sakura are going over there to the sleepover or whatever you wanna call it. They'll be over there in a few minutes. They left a while ago so they could pick ino up on the way."

"you didn't tell anybody? Did you?" I asked a bit scared that the girls will find out and they'll ask me questions like if I need help and so on.

"No, I didn't. Whatever you tell me, stays between us, got it?" he told me

A smile lit up my face" Yup, got it"

"Okay, I gotta go, I'll see you tommarow."

"Wait" I yelled

"What is it?" he asked.

"Thanks neji, for everything" I said almost in a whisper.

"Sure. Just tell me how it all turns, alright?"

"Alright" I said playing with the phone wire.

"Oh and one more thing," he added" call me if anything happens. And if you have that dream again, try to get information out of it. Like ask her her name and age, okay?"

"Sure thing, bye"

"Bye" and with that I heard a click on the other end of the phone line.

I hung up the phone and turned to my left to go down the hallway to my room. I suddenly stopped when I remembered that I saw a shadow at the end of the hall. I didn't want to go but it was the only way to get to my room and the bathroom across from it. I then repeated that saying in my head as I went down the hall slowly, 'nothing to fear but fear itself. nothing to fear but fear itself' I made it to my room and slowly peeked my head in. I put my head on the wall searching for the lightswitch. When it came on I thought something was gonna happen. But nothing did.

I quickly made it to my drawer and pulled out my blue shorts, pink tanktop and some undies. After I got everything I needed to get, I crossed the hall to the bathroom. I turned on the light and placed my stuff on top of the toilet seat lid and looked into the mirror again. I concentrated on my hair as I was removing the barettes that kept my hair up. Then all of a sudden, The image started to change. I saw a girl with cuts and buises with her long hair down and had tears coming down her eyes. I backed up slowly until my back touched the cold wall. The image dissapeared in a minute. I was scared so I grabbed my clothes and ran into my room and closed the door. I took a deep breath in and calmed myself down. I then hurried up and changed.

'Think stright tenten,' I told myself' soon Hinata's gonna come and then you'll be safe around the girl's'

I then went to my closet and pulled out four different color sleeping bags, pillows and blankets. I got the red, Hinata got the purple, Ino got yellow and Sakura got pink. We used to always sleepover my house when we were small and we each had our own color blanket and pillow to match. We sometimes got the boys to join us but that was when we had a day off and we got back from our missions. So now we barely do it at all.

I got the stuff and brang it to the living room, I made two trips just to get all the pillows and blankets to the living room. I then started to Set it up in a circle where we could talk about boys and all.

Ding-Dong

I suddenly looked up and ran to the front door. I peeked in the peek hole and noticed Ino's eye looking through it at the same time.

"Hey"I said as I opened the front door letting the girls come in and hug me syaing "long time no see".

They walked in and as I was about to close the door, I saw someone across the street wearing all black and looking directly at me. Ino closed the door shut as I looked at her.

"What happened?" Ino said in a worried tone" Who's out there?"

She then opened the door again and there was nobody there.

"Nothing" I said as I took one last look outside before shutting it.

"Wow Tenten," I heard sakura say from the living room" You even set up the blankets and all for us"

I walked in the living room and saw the three girl's sitting down on there usual color.

"don't you got any clothing to wear, cause if you don't then you could borrow mine." I insisted seeing how they were still in there everyday outfit.

"Oh no. Were okay, we brought our bag with us and decided to change here." Ino said as she took the bag from hinata.

I didn't even see them with the bag. I just noticed it. Ino then dug into the bag and took out her clothes. So did sakura and hinata after. They each took turns using the bathroom to change. If I were them I'd would've changed in the bedroom, but they don't know what happened so I don't blame them for using the bathroom.

After we all got settled down, Ino started asking questions.

"So where were you? We never see you around most of the time."

I sighed and said "Training, where else?"

"Wow, you serious?" Ino said suprised" Your still training. What does he do, work you to death?" Ino then got up and went across the hall into the kitchen.

"Yeah but I don't mind, He just want's to help me get stronger and I don't blame him." I simply stated as I watched her go to the kitchen making sure she doesn't make a mess.

"Neji to-told me that he adds an ex-extra hour to your training i-if your late." Hinata stuttered trying to get the words out.

"WHAT!" Ino and sakura yelled in unison.

Ino came rushing into the living room holding a bag of chips and a bowl of dip. She sat down and passed it around and then continued what shewas about to say" He can't do that, he's not in charge of your life, he can't do that'

" It's okay, i'm bearly late anyway," I said taking a chip and dipping it in the dip" don't worry about me anyway. I'll be fine"

" Come on tenten," Sakura said not changing the subject" We all know that your the puppet and he's the puppet master who's controlling you."

" He ain't controlling me" I snapped back

" Then why are you letting him do this to you. We barely see each other anymore and your always training. Can't you at last take controll of your own life. He got his and you got yours."

" Yeah, she's right," Ino continued for her" one of these days your gonna push yourself too hard and then possibly pass out. You have to calm down, Take a break once in a while, you know? We haven't been together in how many months? Like four or five to be exact."

" Yeah tenten, just be careful" Hianta said tking the chips and eating it without the dip.

I sighed and rolled my eyes. I then got up and went to the kitchen that was just across the hall from the living room. I then called to the girls " Want anything to drink?"

"ICE TEA PLEASE!" I heard sakura scream "AND SO DOES HINATA AND INO!"

I went to the fridge and opened it and took out the gallon of ice tea. I placed it on the counter and went in the cabinet and took out four cups. I set out the four cups on the counter and took the gallon and poured ice tea in each of the cups. Once I turned around, Ino was right behind me almostmaking me drop the gallon.

" Need help?" she asked

" Just grab the two cups and bring it to the living room." I answered

" Tenten," Ino started" Why don't you settle down and go out with someone for a change?" She said as she went and grabbed the two cups.

" What?" I said suprised as I grabbed the last two cups remaining.

Just then the lights went out for a second and went back on.

" Tenten?"Ino said confused

" What?" I said annoyed thinking she was gonna bring up the subject again.

" Did you pay the electricity bill?"

" Of course," I said" last week"

" Just great, we finally get together and look what happens," I complained" Just my luck. What could possibly go wrong now?"

We then heard a loud crash of thunder, which made me and Ino jump, and a loud scream in the other room.

I then quickly ran out the kitchen across the hall into the living room with Ino behind me. I saw Hinata and Sakura grabbing onto each other. I gave a sigh and sat down in front of them giving them there drinks' Thank god there not hurt' I thought

" So" Ino continued" What do you think?"

I took my cup from her and said" No thanks, i'm better off by myself thank you!"

" What happend" Sakura asked not knowing what was going on.

" Nothing" I said quickly hoping she wouldn't ask anymore questions.

" I told tenten that she should settle down and start looking for a man." oh how I wish Ino would die right now.

" Yes which I already got one!" I said sarcasticly "That's why I didn't want to answer you"

Ino then was about to spit out her drink " Really, is it Neji?"

The other two girls looked at me in shock.

" No, it's not neji. He's a really nice guy, ya don't know him. He's SOOO adorable" I brang my hands together and Started fluttering my eyelashes" He brings me gifts and our first kiss was the night before on the moon light beach. It was so romantic"

" REALLY!" The three girls said in unison.

" OF COURSE NOT!" I screamed. "I don't want anybody. I'm good by myself. If i'm ready then i'll tell you guys then you could help me find the right one, okay"

The three of them then relaxed and went back to eating and drinking ice tea. Then It started to rain. And I mean pouring, not drizzling but the water came down in buckets. I kinda felt sorry for anyone who was outside this late at night. Also the thunder got louder which made all the girls scared including myself.

" This storm is pretty bad" Hinata stated.

" Don't worry," Sakura tried to comfort her" were staying here anyway."

" Guess you right." Hinata said with a soft smile on her face

" At least we got light." I added

Just then the lights shut off yet again.

" Me and my big mouth!" I complained

" Oh you got to be kidding me" I heard Ino say

" Let's just stay together until the lights go back on." Hinata suggested

" Let me go check the fuse box" I said as I made my way to the wall with my hands sticking out in front of me making sure I won't trip.

I followed the wall out of the living room and walked slowly down the hall into my room.

When I got into my room, I walked stright, knowing where my bed was, and went next to my bed inside the draw and searched around in it looking for a flashlight. I found a flashlight and shown it on the wall. I pointed it to the wall across from the bed and found the fuse box. I then walked to the fuse box and clicked the switch to the left and the back to the right. The lights went back on.

So I clicked the flashlight off and left the room and continued down the hall to the living room. The girls wee sitting on the couch and I walked over to them. I threw Ino the flash light and she caught it.

" Sorry 'bout that," I apologized" This doesn't happen that much"

" It's okay" Hinata said still smiling

Then there was another flash of lightining and following that was a big crash of thunder, which of course turned the lights off again.

" Tenten," I heard sakura say" next time we have a sleepover, were going to my house"

I ignored her and did the same thing I did last time, I stuck out my hands and followed the wall. " I'll be back." I said

Riing

The phone started ringing as I entered the hall. So I made my way to my room and went to my bed. I sat on my bed and followed my hand onto the telephone. I'd let it ring once more before answering.

Riing

I picked it up and placed it on my ear.

" Hello" I said

" Hey" I heard the other line say.

" Oh, hey neji"

" Just checking if the girls came or not. The storm out there is brutal."

" I know, It took out my lights and the girls are all here." I said looking into the dark room.

" Good"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I heard out of nowhere, knowing it was the girls.

" What's that? What happened?" He kept asking

" Neji? Neji?" I kept repeating but all I heard was static on the phone so I hung up.

Riing

The phone rang again so I picked it up and screamed into it" Hello, Neji? Are you there?"

"You will pay the consequences" I heard on the other line.

" LEAVE ME ALONE!" I screamed into it and then hung up.

" AHHHHHHH!" The girls screamed again" TENTEN HELP!"

I quickly got off my bed and ran into the hall but once I got into the hall, out of nowhere, all the doors shut closed. The living room, my bedroom, the bathroom, the front door, the kitchen. I was trapped in the hallway. I felt scared all I heard was the girls screaming and I couldn't even help them.

"SAKURA, INO, HINATA!" I screamed as I started banging on the door.

"OPEN THE DOOR!" I heard Ino scream through the door

"IT'S NOT OPENING!" I screamed back

Then the lights went back on but the doors stood shut. I then heard sakura scream "TENTEN, THERE'S SOMEONE IN HERE. HELP! HE'S WEARING ALL BLACK, TENTEN PLEASE!"

At that point, I couldn't move, I just backed away from the door slowly as I stared at the door in front of me. I coldn't even do nothing, I felt so helpless. I backed away more as my back touched the opposite wall of the door. I wanted to help, I really wanted to but there was nothing I could do.

" Heh, Heh, Heh," I then looked to my left and saw the guy with the hooded cloak on. The one from my dream. He was actually here, in my house standing at the end of the hall.

I turned my body to face him as he moved closer and closer to me. I couldn't move, somehow he used a jutsu. The paralysis jutsu. I couldn't move, I tried to move my feet to run out the house but that was impossible.

" Found you" Was all he said as he stopped a few feet away from me.

" W-what do you w-want" I stuttered

" You know what I want!" In a quick second he was right in front of me with his index finger and thumb on my chin." I want the girl, where is she?"

" What are you talki..." I stopped as he squezzed my cheek tighter.

" Don't play with me, where is she? Where is haiku?" He demanded for an answer

" I don't know, I swear!" I answered truthfully

I still couldn't see his face. He had his stupid hood covering it from view. He then said " you know which girl i'm talking about. Your just hidding her from me. You will pay dearly!"

And with that, He let go. I feel to my knees feeling the same pain as I did in my dreams. My whole body ached and my head felt like it was going to explode, I could die in just any minute now. With all the strength gathered up I managed to say " S-stop, p-please"

" Not until you tell me where she is," His voice in an angrier tone then before" Don't worry, your not alone. Your friends are feeling the same pain as you are!"

"L-leave them out of this, p-please" I tried yelling but couldn't.

" NO, NOT UNTIL YOU GIVE ME WHAT I WANT!" He screamed.

Then I felt even more painrunthrough my body as I started crying begging for it to stop, but it didn't. I could hear the girls in the other room screaming too. Then slowly, every thing started dissapearing.

BANG!

The front door flew open as I turned my head slowly to see who it was."Neji!" I muttered as a smile crept up to me face.

" Tenten" He screamed

Then all of a sudden the guy in the black robe dissapeared and so did the pain, but it felt like the pain didn't leave my body and was still there. I then fell to the floor, not holding up my body anymore.

" Tenten" He screamed as he ran to me and picked up my head from the floor and held me in his arm.

The doors in the house all opened and and out popped sakura, hinata, and ino.

"Neji! Your here!" Hinata said happily as if she didn't see him for years.

" What happened" He said demanding for an answer.

" Were not sure," Sakura answered" The lights went out and everything went black and then this guy in a black cloak came. Tenten was seperated from us and we couldn't do nothing to help her."

" I see," Neji said, he then looked down at me" Tenten are you alright, speak to me!" he said softly

"I-I can't move" I tried saying as my eyes slowly started to close" I'm too weak, I'm sorry"

And with that I closed my eyes and my head fell to the side. I then went off into a deep sleep hearing my name being called several times.

"Tenten, Tenten, TENTEN!"

Well there you have it. please review. I really hope you guys like it. I'm gonna be updating late because my laptop broke and i'm using my parents.
