CHAPTER 2 THE MISSION

"Uchiha Sasuke." Said Tsunade

"Nani!" Said all of his fan girls and the genins, but especially Rina. Sakura and Ino were furious and crying why.

"O-okaasan."

"Its been decided." Rina was annoyed by her parents.

-Later on-

"W-what are y-you doing?" Hinata looked at Rina.

"Hiding from my parents and my friends." Rina saw her friends coming this way. "Hinata?"

"Yeah."

"Can you...stand in front of me and act normal so...that they can't see me?"

"Uh..."

"Please."

"Alright."

"Where is she?" Chihiro turning her head.

"I don't know." Sophie turned and saw Hinata alone. "Maybe she knows."

"Who?"

"That girl over there." Sophie pointed to Hinata. They walked towards Hinata. "Excuse me, you're Hinata right?" Sophie smiled at her.

Hinata nodded her head.

"Have you seen Rina?"

"I-iie."

"I see...well thanks anyway." Sophie and Chihiro walked away.

"She was lying, wasn't she?" Chihiro smiled at Sophie.

"Yeah, but its okay. We'll meet up with Rina anyway."

Night

Bridge

"H-how come y-you don't...I mean..." Hinata let out a sigh.

"I don't want to get engaged to a Uchiha."

"Why?" Hinata looked at her confuse.

"I...I always hated the Uchiha's." Hinata looked at Rina surprised.

"But...you said that it didn't matter who you got engaged too." Hinata turned away.

"I didn't think it was going to be him." Hinata looked at her again. "My parents...they know that I hate Uchiha's."

"So...they're doing this on purpose?"

Rina nodded her head. "Maybe. Even if I do get marry to him, I'll still hate him."

"Is...there s-someone w-who you l-l-like?" Hinata blushed and look into the water to hide it."

Rina chuckles. "Iie."

"Oh."

"Hinata."

"Yeah."

"Why don't you tell Naruto that you like him?"

Hinata blushed even more. "I-I-I..."

Rina smiled. "Are you scared of what he might say?"

Hinata let out a sigh. "He...l-likes t-this one girl al-already."

"Sakura...ne?"

Hinata looked at her surprised.

"It's okay if he doesn't like you back, there are always others."

Hinata didn't respond, but just kept on looking at the water. Rina looked at her and then turned away.

"I don't mean it literally."

"I k-know...but can I ask you something?"

Rina looked at her.

"Do you know a guy by the name of...R-R-Riku?"

Rina eyes widened, but didn't let Hinata see. "I don't. Is he someone important to you?"

"I-iie. I-I was just wondering."

"It's getting late, we should go home."

"Yeah."

"See you tomorrow." Rina waved to her and Hinata did the same thing then left.

Walking "Is there something you want?"

"Long time no see."

Rina turned her head to the side.

"Heard you got engaged to a Uchiha."

Rina got annoyed. "What do you want...Riku?"

Riku smiled. "I just want to talk."

Scoff

"Yeah right."

Riku smiled again. "Why don't we go somewhere that's more private then here?"

Rina ignored him again.

"I'll take that as a yes." Riku used his chakra to surround Rina. They disappear into thin air.

-A place in the woods.-

"What do you want?"

"Why are you getting engaged to an Uchiha?"

"My parent's idea."

"Do you want to?"

"You know that I hate Uchiha's!"

"Then why don't you-" He got cut off by Rina.

"Even if I did, I still have too." Rina turned her head. "Sophie and Chihiro would find me anyway." Rina leaned against a tree.

"Well now...we can't let that happen." He put one of his arms above her head and hold her waist with the other hand.

Rina turned and looked at him. "What are you...?" Before she could say anymore, he kissed her. Rina was surprised. She tried pushing him away, but he wouldn't budge.

After a minute or so passed, he let go. Rina wiped off the kissed. "You..." Rina said angrily.

He put a finger to her mouth. "This is between you and me." He whisper to her ear, and let out a smile before disappearing.

"Baka!"

-The next day-

Gasping for air. "He came again...Riku. Why does he show up in my dream?" Hinata wonder to herself. She shook her head and got out of bed.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura said sweetly.

"Nani." He answered boredly.

"Would you like to go out...with me?" Sakura blushed happily.

"Iie." Sasuke said closing his eyes. Sakura gave a big sad sigh.

"Ha. You see Sakura. Sasuke-kun won't even go out with you!" Ino stick out her tongue.

"Like he would go out with you Ino Pig! Sakura yelled backed at her.

"He would too forehead girl!"

"Then ask him!"

"Fine!"

"Fine!"

"Sasuke-kun...would you like to go out with me?" Ino said sweetly.

"Iie."

"I told you so!" Sakura smiled evilly. "Cha, he'll never be with you Ino-Pig." Inner Sakura. The two were about to have a fight until someone yelled out Sasuke's name.

"It's her." Sakura and Ino said angrily folding their arm.

"Hey Sasuke...kun." Chihiro hugged him again just to get Sakura and Ino angry.

"Chihiro." Sophie said annoyed. Then she turns her attention to Sasuke. "Have you seen Rina?"

"Do I look like I have?" Sasuke looked at her annoyed.

"You..."

"Sophie!" Yelled Rina.

They all turned their attention to her. Sasuke ignored her and so did Rina.

"Well look at the two Love birds." Chihiro chuckles.

"Chihiro!" Rina gave her a look and Chihiro didn't say anything anymore. Rina turned and saw Hinata running. "Hinata." Rina smiled and waved to her.

Huffing and puffing Hinata tried to stand up straight. "G-gomensai."

"You're always apologizing...for being late." Kiba said laughing. "Come to think of it, why are you so late these days?" Some of them looked at her.

"I...I..." Hinata blushed.

"She's just tired." Rina answered for Hinata. Hinata looked at her and smiled at Rina.

"Hey you." Sasuke looked at Rina.

"Nani."

"Why don't you tell your parents to call the whole thing off, because I'm not getting engage to you!"

"Like I want to marry a baka!"

"Desperate bitch." Sasuke mummer.

Rina eyed Sasuke. "At least I don't think I'm better than everybody." Rina said out loud on purpose.

Sasuke eyed Rina. "At least I don't hang around annoying people!" Sasuke smirk.

"He's saying he don' hang around annoying people...Yeah Right! Rina thought to herself. "At least they don't say Sasuke-kun, Sasuke-kun every time they see you!"

They were about to start a fight until Hinata got in the way. "C-come o-on, p-people a-are st-staring."

Rina and Sasuke looked around and then stopped what they were about to do. Hinata and the others let out a sigh.

"Hinata."

"Ha-hai Naruto-kun." Hinata blushed a little.

Chihiro was about to say something until Rina stepped on her foot and smiled at her. "Rina." Chihiro said painfully.

"Don't say anything to embarrass Hinata!" Rina gave her an evil look.

"When did the two of you became friends?"

"When we first came here." Rina turned around to face Sophie. "Sophie."

"Yeah."

"Who is our Jounin?"

"Not sure."

-1 hour past-

"What's taking our Jounin forever?" Complained Naruto.

Hinata turned her head to Naruto. "The-they'll b-be he-here."

"Hinata are you sick? You're red." Naruto touch Hinata's head and she took a couple of step back to where Rina was at. "Is there something wrong?"

"I-iie." Hinata blushed even more.

"Oy." Kakashi yelled to them with one of his hand in the air while the other one holding his book. The other Jounins were behind him. They all look at them with evil eyes, except some who don't really care.

"Sorry for being late. There was a new Jounin."

"New...Jounin." Sakura looked at Kakashi.

They all look to the side and saw a guy that is the same age as them. Rina couldn't see so she took some step to the side.

"You!" Rina blurted out.

"You know each other?" Sophie and Chihiro looked at Rina confuse.

"You know Rina?" The Jounins looked at him.

The guy put his hand behind his head. "We met the other day and...I got lost so I ask her for direction." He gave a little laugh.

"Yeah right." Rina said to herself. "Is...he our Jounin?" Rina looked at him disgusted.

"Yep." Kakashi smiled at Rina.

Rina sigh and looked away. "When were alone, I'm going to..." Rina's thoughts got disturbed by Chihiro.

"What's his name?" Ask Chihiro.

"Tanaka Riku."

"I guess we're going to have fun then. Don't you think so Rina, Sophie?" Chihiro smiled at them.

"I forgot to mention something else." Kakashi smiled at them. "We agreed to change some of our group around."

"Nani!" Everybody yelled out.

"Yes!" Rina said happily to herself.

"Who's going to be with whom?" Shino looked at Kurenai.

"Well...here's the paper that tells you who's going to be with who. It'll only last for this month."

"Kakashi's team: Naruto, Shino, and Chihiro.

Kurenai's team: Kiba, Neji, and Sophie.

Asuma's team: Ino, Shikamaru, and Tenten.

My team (Gai): Sakura, Choji, and Lee.

Riku's team: Sasuke, Hinata, and Rina."

Some couldn't believe the team that they got stuck in. Especially Riku's team. Ino and Sakura were complaining about how they weren't with their Sasuke-kun. Hinata was a little bit sad. Rina thought she was going to kill herself. Sasuke was just annoyed. Naruto complain about how he wasn't able to be with Sakura anymore. Chihiro and Sophie were concern that they weren't going to be with Rina. Choji was a little worry about being with Gai and worry about who's going to take him to eat. Lee was very happy that he was still with Gai. Shino didn't really care. Kiba was a bit worry. Shikamaru didn't care.

"I'm stuck with the weaklings." Sasuke said to himself.

Hinata heard what Sasuke said and lower her head. Rina got pissed off of what Sasuke said.

"Don't worry Hinata. If there's anything you need help on, just ask me. Besides, that girly guy doesn't need us anyway." Rina smiled evilly at Sasuke.

Sasuke's eyebrow twitched. "Girly guy."

"Is there something you want...baka?" Rina smiled at him.

"Yeah, why don't you and I train. Let's see who gets beat to a pulp!" Sasuke said smiling and popping his fist.

"Don't worry; it's going to be you!" Rina made a face at Sasuke.

"Rina-chan, Sasuke-kun p-please do-don't fight." Hinata begged them, but they just ignored her.

"Well let's get going." Riku smiled happily.

"Why should we?" Rina looked at him.

"Well...we start our first mission."

"We...al-already are going on m-missions?"

"Of course."

"Now?"

"No tomorrow." Riku smiled at Sasuke. They all look at each other before giving their sensei a look.

"How did you even become a Jounin?" Sasuke ask him.

"Well...it's kind-of a long story. So here it goes. It was when-." Riku got cut off.

"See you tomorrow." Yelled Sasuke.

"See ya later." Yelled Rina.

"Sayonara." Hinata bow down before leaving.

"They could at least say they didn't want to listen, oh well."

"Hinata." Rina ran to Hinata, who was about to enter the Hyuuga house.

"What are you doing here?"

"You drop this." Rina handed Hinata's necklace to her.

"Arigato Rina-chan."

"Hinata."

"Yeah."

"Who gave you this necklace?"

"My mother."

"It's very pretty."

"Arigato."

"Hinata."

"Yeah."

"If...you ever need to talk about anything...you can tell me." Rina gave a motherly smile to Hinata.

"Arigato...Rina-chan." Hinata smiled at Rina.

Hinata enter the door and watched Rina left before closing it. Rina was walking and stopped in front of Tenten, Lee, and Neji. She gave a smile and a little bow. She was about to walk away from them, but Neji stopped her.

"Rina."

"Hai."

"You are ONE of Hinata's friends, ne?"

"Hai."

"Can you give a message to Sasuke?"

"Why?"

"You two are getting engaged."

Rina gave a little laugh. "Maybe...but I don't plan on getting married to him at ALL." She smiled at Neji. "Besides why don't you just tell him yourself?"

Neji made a fist on his left hand. He felt like hitting her. "Really?"

Lee and Tenten knew that Neji was going to start a fight so Lee said something to Rina. "Rina-san, please don't get him angry or he'll start fighting you." Tenten didn't say anything. She just stared at Neji.

Rina turned her head to the right. She was getting tired and didn't really feel like arguing about dumb stuff. Rina sigh. "What do you want me to tell him?" She said looking at him. 'He is so annoying. I can't believe he's Hinata's cousin. I want to wipe that stupid smirk off his face!'

Neji gave a little smirk even though he knew that she wasn't going to fight him over a little thing. He began to tell her.

Hinata's Dream

"Rina."

"Yeah."

"What do you think of this flower?"

"It's a very beautiful flower. It stands for the weak will become stronger."

Hinata smiled big in surprised. "Do...you think that I'll become stronger?"

"Of course you will. Besides if there's something you need help on, I'll help you to get it right. Don't ever doubt yourself even if people say you're weak, ok!"

"Arigato Rina. You're like a big sister to me."

"I am eh, well come on let's go over there ok Hinata." Hinata nodded, but felt like she couldn't move at all and Rina was already too far to reach at all.

"Rina." Hinata looked at her right and didn't see her anymore. "Rina...Rinaaaa." Hinata screamed her name and then started crying.

Dream end

"Why are you crying?" Came a familiar voice.

Hinata turned and saw Riku."It...it's you."

"Are you crying because your friend left you?"

"..." Hinata just lower her head.

Riku came if front of her. He lifted her head to face him. "Don't cry." He moved closer to Hinata. Hinata was frozen. His lips touched her lips. She wanted to move away, but couldn't. It was strange for Hinata to kissed a guy she barely knows. Riku let go of Hinata. Hinata was still shock. Riku smiled at her. "If you ever need to talk, just call my name." Riku then left.

Hinata woke up breathing hard. She touched her lips. It felt like someone did kiss her. Hinata shook her head hard. "It was...just a dream. It was just a dream." Hinata went back to sleep.

Woods

Riku jumped from tree to tree and then jumped to the ground smiling.

"Tell me, why did you kiss Hinata?"

Riku got surprised by Rina. "You jealous?" He smiled.

"As if. Do...you like Hinata?" Rina turned around to face him.

"What's not to like? She's pretty, quiet, shy, and is very emotional about things. She doesn't hold a grudge against you and other things."

Rina's eyebrow twitched. "Don't you go near her!"

"Why?"

"I won't let you hit on my friend."

"Too bad. I already have fallen in love, with her." He gave her an innocent smile. "Besides, you have Sasuke."

"We're only 16 years old and yet me and Sasuke are getting engaged, and I hate him."

He got in front of her. "You want a kiss?" Riku smiled at Rina.

"Baka!" She turned to leave, but Riku got a hold of her wrist. "What are you doing?" She looked at him suspicious. He pulled Rina to him. He hugged her tightly and she couldn't get loose.

"Let...go...of me!" Rina squirmed.

"And let this chance pass, no way." He leaned close to her and put his lips on hers.

Rina stopped squirming and was still surprised even though it was her second kiss from him.

He finally let go of her. "What don't tell me you're still shocked? After all this is your second kiss." He waved to her face.

"You idiot!" Rina hitted him on the head and turn to walk away.

"Dream of me!" Riku yelled to Rina and started laughing.

Walking home "Baka. Riku you stupid Baka!" Rina had a smiled on her face. She touched her lips. "What am I doing? Falling in love with that Baka. There's something wrong with me." Rina ran home.

-The next day-

Rina and Hinata stared at the sky thinking about what happen.

"I...had a dream that Riku kissed me." Hinata looked at Rina and then turned away.

"S-same here." Hinata turned and looked at Rina in surprised.

"What are you two babbling about?" Sasuke didn't really care but asked anyways.

"It's none of your business!" Rina yelled at him. The two stared at each other angrily. They were about to start a fight until their sensei came poofing in.

"Hello." Riku gave a friendly smile. He opens his eyes to see that the two were already fighting each other. "I...guess training has already started. He looked to his left and saw Hinata saying their names. "Oy, Hinata."

Hinata looked at their sensei and nodded her head. She turned away so that he wouldn't see her blushing.

"Sasuke, Rina!" Riku yelled to them so that they would stop fighting.

"Nani!" Yelled the two.

"Oh...sensei." Rina looked at Riku and then let go of Sasuke shirt.

Sasuke dust off the dirt that got on him. "Where were you?" Sasuke ask lamely.

"With hokage-sama."

"Why?" Sasuke raised an eyebrow.

"Our mission."

"I-I thought we're t-training today?" Hinata said quietly.

"Well...it turns out we're doing a mission instead."

"That means we have to go back home and get our stuff and meet you back here right?" Rina said boredly

"Hai. I'll be waiting at the gate." Riku smiled at them and then went away.

All three of them gave a big sigh. They looked at each other and then went their separate ways.

-Hyuuga mansion-

Sigh "Why...do we have to go on a mission already?" I wonder how Naruto-kun is doing?" Hinata zipped her bag and walked out of her bedroom.

Hinata put some tea and dumplings on the ground where her father and Neji were training. "Father."

"Hai."

"I'll be going on a mission today."

Hiashi didn't answer, but just nodded his head. Neji just stared at Hinata. Hinata bow down her head and then left.

Hinata was just about to leave the house when Neji called to her.

"Hai, Neji-nii-san."

"Do you know when you'll be back?"

Hinata nodded. "Maybe...t-this afternoon or tomorrow, but I'm not sure."

"I see, well...what are you guys doing?"

"Don't know."

Neji got curious now. "Alright then." Without another word Hinata left. As he turned to go inside, he got surprise.

"Hanabi-sama."

Hanabi giggled. "Gomen. I was just wondering what you were doing." Hanabi smiled at him and went to meet her father.

-Rina's place-

"Where are you going?" Chihiro ask while throwing a ball in the air.

"Mission."

"Already." Sophie walked towards her.

"Hai."

"Shouldn't you guys..."

"Like I even care to know about our sensei." 'Besides...I already know too much about him.'

"So...when are you and Sasuke..." Chihiro asked Rina as she stops throwing the ball.

"When we're 18 or 19."

"And yet, you guys got engage so early." Chihiro now heading towards her.

"Well, gotta go." Chihiro smiled at her. "Have to go meet up with my teammates." Chihiro left the room.

Sophie looked at Rina.

"Aren't you going to go to?"

"Rina?"

"Hai?"

"When we're not with you...you have to control that..."

"I know that." Rina turned her head to the left so that she can see Sophie. "I won't let it get out of hand or let it control me."

"Alright then...be safe on your mission...Kurayami." Sophie walked out of the room leaving Rina alone.

Rina gave a smile. "Kurayami. I wished she didn't call me that name. It makes me feel almost guilty for what I did back then."

TO BE CONTINUE...
