Chapter 3:

"!" Tsunade was sitting at her desk staring at some paper work when she sensed something.

"What's wrong?" Jiraya asked. He had come to give the paperwork to Tsunade and was about to leave. "…My jutsu I put on Tenten…" Tsunade said. "It's broken."

Jiraya's eyes widened a bit. "Broken? By who?"

"…Well, we all know it's someone under Orochimaru." Tsunade said getting up. "And since Sandaime's jutsu is still in tact, it's got to be…"

"Kabuto." Jiraya finished. His eyes narrowed as he remembered Kabuto the first time he made his appearance n this school.

"This is big trouble. If Tenten can't handle it, she'll burst. That's why I locked her memories…" Tsunade said. 'I think she can handle it since not all of the latch has been broken, but if it all broken…' Tsunade's pace became faster as she thought of it. 'It's still in this school. If we're lucky we'll be able to catch them.'

Dosu, Zaku, and Kin had their orders and were trying to find Kabuto right now. Kin felt a little guilty since she had grown fond of Tenten, despite the fact that they hadn't talked a lot. Zaku and Kin were holding hands. He noticed that she was feeling bad.

"…" He didn't say anything. He just tightened his grip on Kin's hand. Kin smiled a little bit. She had been Zaku's girlfriend for a while and knew that he was trying to comfort her.

"We're close." Dosu said. They nodded and followed Dosu.

Hinata sensed something. It didn't feel right. Hinata felt that something was happening. She looked at the others. Shino nodded. Shino had sensed it as well. Other than him, Sasuke, Gaara, and Shikamaru had noticed as well.

'Tenten!' Hinata thought and ran in the direction that she had seen Sakura and Tenten go. Temari noticed.

"Sorry, got to go!" Temari said. She turned around quickly and went after Hinata.

"…Guys." Shino began. They all turned to look at him. "If you didn't notice, there's something going on right now. And I think it has to do with the whereabouts of Tenten, Sakura, and Neji."

'Sakura!' Sasuke thought and ran off after them.

"…So, should we go?" Naruto asked looking at everyone ready to run. They nodded and they took off running.

"…You remember." Neji said he was smiling. Not a smirk, but an actual smile.

Tenten nodded and smiled. But her expression quickly changed when she turned her attention back to Kabuto. Neji did as well.

"I don't intend to fight any of you." He smiled when he said this. "Someone should be coming to pick me up soon. It's hard to use jutsus when the ninja world has been sealed…" Kabuto said. He did indeed look drained.

'Oh yeah!' Tenten remembered something. She rummaged through her back pocket and pulled out her knife she had been given. She swiftly flicked it and it stabbed Kabuto in the shoulder.

'Shit…' Kabuto thought. He hadn't expected that one. He clutched his shoulder. Sakura looked at Tenten amazed.

Neji just smirked. Tenten noticed and said.

"I missed a little..." Tenten heard foot steps behind her. Sakura was the first to see.

"..Kin. I knew it." Sakura said glaring at her.

"So you're here." Kabuto said restoring his smile. Dosu looked him over.

"They got you?" He asked.

"One of them happened to have a kunai." Kabuto said. Dosu nodded and looked at Tenten. Who was trying to get up while Neji helped her.

"...Kin, why?" Tenten asked. Kin looked away.

"...Because that was the reason I was born." Kin said bluntly. Zaku was suprised. She didn't like admitting that and often lied that it was out of her won free will.

"Yes, actually all of us are that way. Excluding Kabuto, he only pretends." Dosu said following Kin. "We're Orochimaru's experiments. We may have a will, but Orochimaru will always come before us."

"But, have you ever tried?" Tenten asked. She was standing on her feet now.

"Dude, we did." Zaku said.

"Let's go." Kabuto said giving an evil grin. That just turned Tenten off. She grew very angry.

"STOP!" She shouted and a huge amount of chakra came off from around her.

'How could she...?' Kabuto thougth defensivley putting his arms in front of him.

"Everyone should be able to do what they think is right!" Tenten shouted.

'Tenten!' Kin thought as she felt something let go in her heart. It slowly dissapeared in her heart. Zaku and Dosu had the same feeling as well.

"Damn..." Tsunade thought as she started running faster. (Note: This is a very big school and no one can use ninjutsu.)

"This doesn't look good." Jiraya said running with Tsunade he looked up at the chakra piling up in the sky.

"I was hoping this wouldn't happen." Tsunade said.

"Ah...I feel it, chakra." Orochimaru said sitting in his lair. "It shall soon be mine." He waited a little longer.

'So it's that girls. Tetuya, I couldn't excpect more from you.' Orochimaru snickered.

"She will be very useful indeed."

Natume-kun's Space

Hope you liked it! So far, not all of my readers had found my story... (So sad... TT) But I'm sure they'll find it eventually.

Today, it was really sad, I was watching Konoha High on Youtube by 10tenten10 or something, and it ended with narusaku, sasuhina, and leeten! The other couples were ok. God, the ending just turned me off. They made Neji sound like a self-centered asshole. (I'm a Neji fangirl so this pisses me off okay?) Sad...

I have been reviewed 13 times. 13 stars!

Reminder: I need to pick the Akatsuki members this year. I want to do it as soon as this incident is over so please people can you remind me if you remember?

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. I sure wish I did though. And you'll know if I ever get my hands on it because suddenly nejiten will appear all over the place! XD
