The wind blew and the leaves swirled in front of another music/ television building. Hinata gulped noticeably loud. Even though Naruto and Sasuke had come with her, she couldn't help, but feel nervous. She hardly talked to people face to face, but to talk to someone and then have people be able to listen to every word she said over and over again. That was enough to make her sick.

Kakashi lead them through the building to an empty hallway. The four of them stopped in front of a white-painted metal door. A lady wearing a large wireless headset answered. "Are you Artica?" Kakashi nodded.

"You're on in twenty. We've got to get them through wardrobe, hair, and make-up. Hurry up come in." She opened the door farther and revealed the room to be larger than it appeared.

The room, also white, contained a large vanity with a height changeable, rotating chair, a few racks bunched with clothing, and lots of people in matching work attires. "Kaiyo, take one of these to wardrobe. Ichigo, take one to make-up and Oki take the other to hair. Hurry people chop, chop they were late." Naruto was jerked away first, then Sasuke, and finally Hinata. She was going to wardrobe.

Kaiyo had told her, her outfit was bland, just a white wife beater tank-top and black capris weren't going to cut it. Then asked for Hinata's size. She made Hinata try on a variety of clothes. Everything from skirts, capris, jeans of all sorts, layered tops, cut up tops, slightly frilled tops, and tons of shoes. "I've got it!" Kaiyo said, suddenly inspired. She handed Hinata a black cami that had a sheer black overlay with silk edges and a pair of faded wash jeans. "Go try these on while I find shoes." She shooed Hinata behind a dark blue curtain and hung in front of a changing room.

She put the clothing on carefully, not wanting it to damage. She was glad the shirt was a straight across top; it was too low for her liking. The pants fit her, but were very loose. She walked out of the changing room, holding the top of the pants. Kaiyo came back right as she walked out. "Ok. Good, here." She threw Hinata some shoes, classic black and white checkered Vans. "Everything good?"

"The pants are a little big." Kaiyo throw her a studded belt.

"Here, put it on to wear your pants won't fall down, but the pants are still loose on the waist they're suppose to hang. Are you done?" Hinata nodded. "Good, go over to the vanity. Ichigo and Oki will finish you."

Hinata slipped on the shoes and did as she was told. Ichigo and Oki were already waiting for her. "Come on, we've got ten minutes. We're not going to do much, just some eyeliner, a little background shadow, face basics, and your hair. Ready?" Ichigo didn't give her much time to answer. "Good. Let's get started."

The put Hinata into the chair and began their work. As the instructed her to close her eyes and opened them she began to think of how she was suppose to act. Naruto and Sasuke had given her 'attitude' lessons.

"Ok, Hinata, we already know that you have attitude, it definitely shows when you perform. We know, we've seen it, but off the mic you're a little stiff. Which it's okay to be shy, a lot of people are once they're off stage. But we're, just going to spice you up a little, and show how things work at these interviews." Naruto continued, as Hinata listened intently.

"Now, the one you're going to be debuted at is a fairly easy one. They ask you some personal stuff, not too personal though, and a little more about the CD coming out. We can help you there. The whole idea is to show that you're awesome and that we're glad to have you with us. Not that you aren't awesome or, that we're not already glad to have you with us because you're great."

The two of them spent hours on her stuttering, helping with getting her comfortable and figuring out why she'd stuttered so much. They had taught her how to answer a question without getting yourself in trouble, and how to get out of trouble is she did get stuck.

They had also taught her how to walk to fit the occasion and with confidence. At this interview they would need lots of face attitude and eyes attitude, as well as in how she were to carry herself. Naruto and Sasuke has even gotten Kakashi to help.

By the end of the day Hinata had gotten a slight hang of the idea.

By the time Hinata zoned back in it was time to leave. Naruto and Sasuke weren't in the clothes they came in. Naruto had on a gray hooded jacket with orange graffiti printed on, a navy beanie, and dark loose jeans with orange converse shoes. Sasuke had on loose jeans as will in a vintage wash, a blue shirt with white writing, and a pair of white skate shoes.

A man busted the door open, "Are you ready?" he asked. The response was the three band mates being pushed out the door.

The four continued down the hallway were noise was interrupting. "Alright, when I say go, walk through those doors, and you'll be on air from the time you walk past the second set until you walk off." he informed. The group stopped in front of a metal double door set. Their guide held one hand to his wireless headset.

"Ok, go."

"Now, I know you guys have heard rumors, I know there has been some devastating news about this band, but they're here to clear everything up, and tell us what's up. With out further ado I give you, ARTICA!" A loud eruption of applause exploded, and yells were let out, as the three man band walked in. They stood in a line, Naruto, Hinata, Sasuke.

As they reached the host, Hinata became angry. Yes, she knew that this was a music and television company, but no one had told her the interview would be live and in front of a large group of people and fans of the former Artica. She was mad, but she shook it off, not letting it in her head and mess with her thoughts. It was still and interview, and it was still her coming out. She had to show she could deal with anything.
