A day after the fight in the forest, the people of Konoha who had escaped to hide in the mountains came back in their house. The village quietly forget about the events when they learned a Jurinai was back. Neji declared Tenten officially the Leader of the Jurinai clan because of the scrolls Hirou gave her. These scrolls were proven that the compound and the title of Lady Jurinai was hers. Konoha's citizens lived in peace after that.
After the betrayal of the Gushij clan, Gaara executed all the men who participated in the whole thing and destroyed their castle to build a compound in his village to keep an eye on them. He became the King of the Wind Country. Months later, Sakura Haruno and Lord Kazekage got married in Konoha and gave a big ball in Suna.
Kiba was declared officially Lord Inuzuka, a week later of the attack of the Gushij clan, by Lord Hyuuga. His compound had been rebuilt right after. He met a girl from the Lighting Country on a mission and they got married 2 years later.
Shino and Lee had returned to Konoha and considered their imprisonment as 'very youthful' or just didn't comment it.
Hinata and Naruto raised their son in peace in the castle and Lord Uzumaki declared Iruki heir of his clan since they found out that he didn't have the Byukugan. Their son was expectedly a troublemaker and a loudmouth like his father. His dark hair is the only thing he has in common with his mother.
Ino Yamanaka and Shikamaru finally got married 2 months after this mess. Ino surprised everyone by saying that she was pregnant. She gave birth to twins. A boy and girl with a high QI of over 200 each. Yuki was declared heiress of the Nara clan and Yuka heir of the Yamanaka clan. They grown up very close from each other and they were always finishing each other's sentence.
Temari and Kankuro returned to the Hidden village of the Sand but they visited often Konoha to see their friends. Kankuro remained single but Temari became engaged a top shinobi of her village.
As for Tenten and Neji…
"Tenten you need to keep moving if you don't want to be late!"
The Weapons Mistress signed looking at the clock. 'Are they real?'
"Can you girls relax?! I've gotten 2 hours left before the wedding."
Ino and Sakura squealed and sat on the edge of Tenten's bed. Temari looked sympathetically at her while Hinata continued to put her chocolate hair in a big messy bun.
"But this THE BIG DAY!" Sakura yelled.
Ino nodded.
"I'm glad that I will do your make-up!"
Tenten cocked her brows.
"When did I…"
"Which colour of lipstick, Forehead?!"
"Hum… With her red and golden dress I would say a red but not too deep? What about it Pig?"
"Yeah! Don't move Ten! Come Sakura will search for it in my room."
Hinata and Tenten sweat dropped. The Hyuuga snapped back to reality and finish the burn by sealing it with a golden ribbon.
"I'm finish…"
"Thanks Hinata."
She smiled looking down at her laps.
"Are you nervous?"
"Seriously? Yeah! This bunch of elders will have my head. They only accept because I'm the last one of my clan…"
The elders almost killed her when they learned she was a Jurinai. They said that she had run away so she could again run away but Neji glared at them reminding them who was the King. The population however was grateful because she had somehow managed to save them all. They didn't know that her clan had been massacred since Lord Hiaishi declared this information as top secret. However, the elders snorted every time they saw her walking in Neji's office. Naruto, Neji, Shikamaru and Haku had to stop her from killing them all when one of them snorted something against the Jurinai clan. For months, she and Neji had to fight to be able to get married.
"They had been as bad as that with Naruto when he asked them if he could marry me." She blushed having a dreamy expression.
Tenten smiled sitting besides the Lady.
"You know, they hated Naruto at first. They said he would never be good enough for me. However, we love each other as much as brother and you love each other… Love won against their snobby comments. Naruto and I got married and at that instant I didn't care about what they were thinking. I just kissed him and we were husband and wife."
"Wow…"
"Yeah… It was like a war of hatred against love. It was exactly the same thing as the light against the darkness. The good always wins like love had won."
The Weapons Mistress smiled nodding understanding what she wanted to say.
"You better take your bath now before Sakura and Ino come back because they will make you look like a doll."
Hinata giggled softly while Tenten ran in the bathroom. After a hour, she came out and Hinata handed her the dress. It was a deep red kimono with a golden and a black dragon designed in her back as the symbol of her clan.
Ino and Sakura nearly attacked her with the make-up but Hinata stopped them because she could look like Kankuro's Kaki paint. They just had time to put golden on her eyes and red on her lips, thank God. Even then, she had to admit that she doesn't look bad at all but she would prefer not to wear any make-up. The pink haired medic nin and the Yamanaka screamed a clear 'nonsense, you must look beautiful for Neji' in her ears when she said it out loud. Hinata giggled and took Tenten by the arm.
"Almost time…"
Ino and Sakura giggled and stopped in front of the ball room looking at her.
"Okay… inhale, exhale and everything will be fine."
Tenten cocked her brows looking at her weirdly.
"I'm fine."
"Who do you think you are kidding? This is the most important day of your life!!!"
"Now I feel bad, thank you…" She replied sarcastically.
Sakura smiled a little while Ino looked at her watch.
"We just need to wait for Naruto, sorry Forehead and I need to get inside. Bye! Good luck!"
Normally, her father would have the task to bring her to her new husband but since they had no idea whatsoever of who he is they just declared Naruto has her father for now.
"Hinata… I became to be nervous… I mean very nervous…"
Hinata hugged her tapping her back gently.
"Everything will be fine… You will see. Brother will make you happy!"
"I know but… I don't know. I'm scared."
"Who is not the day of his wedding? I was in worse condition than you I swear but when you will see my brother in there you will be sure of your choice."
"Thanks Hina…"
They broke apart smiling at each other. Naruto walked towards them jaw dropping to the floor.
"You are beautiful, Tenten!!! But I prefer Hinata!"
His wife blushed as Tenten could surpass a giggle at her embarrassment.
The loudmouth grinned giving her a peck on the cheek. He turned to Tenten and presented her his arm. She grabbed it smiling at him. She waved at her friend who waved back and disappeared in the room. 'I can do this...' The Weapons Mistress closed her eyes exhaling deeply.
"Ready?"
She nodded slowly opening her eyes. 'No more running away…' The 2 maids opened the door and everyone stood up looking at her. The elders snorted loudly disapproving the way she was dressed. She smiled sweetly at them. They wanted her to dress like the Hyuuga bride but she refused because she was a Jurinai. Neji nodded and dismissed the elders. It was already an outrage for Haku to let her live with him at the castle he wasn,t going to ask her to wear that bullshit.
She smiled when she saw his jaw almost dropped to the floor. Neji was in his honorific robs. She reached with Lord Uzumaki the Naruto gave her hand to Neji who just continued to stare at her. 'The best choice…'
They locked their gaze together not listening a moment of what the hell the old man in front of them was saying. They were with each other and that was all that mattered.'I love you…' He smirked reading her expression with ease. 'Me too…'
"I do."
His voice was reassuring, with no doubt. Tenten smiled brightly. 'After all this fight against the Gushij clan, after all that, I realised it was really a combat of Hatred Vs Love and…'
"I do."
She sneaked her arms around his neck as his grabbed her waist. They sealed their lips together and the people cheered around as she smiled against his lips. 'And obliviously Love had won…'
