Part 19
One day, Neji and Tenten were told that Tsunade-sama wanted to see them. "Tsunade-sama, did you call us?" Tenten asked. Tsunade shook her head and said, "Lee is away with Gai on a mission, I'm assigning you a mission. There's going to be a special person that will take the mission along with you." Neji asked, "Who?" Tsunade smiled and said, "Come in."
The door opened and Tenten ran over and hugged her, "Omg! Mizuki! What are you doing here?!" Mizuki laughed and said, "I'm on a mission, I barely came back, and Tsunade-sama wanted me to do a mission with you two." Neji sighed, he's more than confused now.
Mizuki wore a kimono, but you couldn't really see it because on top of that had a cotton-looking fabric that reached across her chest and stomach and was tied together on the back. She has a huge red bow in the back of her, and her ninja band was hanging onto the bow on her side. From the waist down, it looked like it was her regular kimono, but it was red.
Her hair was still the same, long and black, but it was much longer than before. She looked alot older, and taller. She grew to as tall as Neji.
"Okay, there has been people being kidnapped in the Village of Rose. No one knows who it is and the reason why. Your mission is to find the person who's kidnapping everyone." The three nodded and left the room.
"I thought you were going to be the Princess of your village." Tenten asked, on the way to the Village of Rose. "I was, but I taught Prince Satoru and left the village to give him a chance to rule the village without me helping him." Tenten nodded.
Mizuki looked over at Tenten and Neji and said, "You two are pretty close, any process during these five months?" She winked at the both of them. Neji looked at Mizuki like she was crazy or something. Mizuki sighed and said, "Okay, I'll say it in a simpler way. Are you two together?" Tenten's eyes widen, and Neji looked away, blushed.
"NO! Why didn't you think that?" Tenten said, starting to have pink spots on her cheeks. Mizuki shrugged and said, "Remember that one night at the palace when you and Neji shared a room." Mizuki giggled. "There was a-" "Ah! No excuses." Mizuki smiled. Tenten looked down. "Don't worry, tonight, I'll leave you guys alone." Mizuki said.
"Mizuki! You got the wrong-" "Give it up, Tenten. She's not going to listen to you, the more you deny, the more she says it." Neji said. Tenten looked at Neji and shrugged.
They arrived at the Village of Rose. When they walked into the hotel, the manager yelled, "NO FEMALES ALLOWED!" Tenten and Mizuki looked at each other in wonder. "Excuse me, but theyr my teammates, why won't you allow females in your hotel?" Neji asked.
The manager looked at Neji and said, "Fine, but they're not allowed to stay overnight here." Neji nodded and said, "We just need a place to rest at." The manager nodded and led them to a table.
"Why won't you allow females into your hotel?" Neji asked. "Because, there's been a kidnapper that takes female. He'll kidnap the female and trashs the place she stayed at. My hotel was trashed almost ten times, and I don't want it to happen again." Neji nodded. The manager left to get some tea for them.
"A kidnapper who takes females?! That's freaky." Tenten said. "No doubt that the kidnapper already knows we're here." Mizuki said. Neji nodded and said, "Keep your guards." Tenten and Mizuki nodded.
No one excepted females at their hotels...
"Neji, why don't you stay at a hotel, and we'll sleep somewhere else?" Tenten said, looking worried at Neji. Neji shook his head and said, "We're sticking together, no doubt the kidnapper will get you tonight." Tenten and Mizuki shivered at the same time.
They ended up sleeping at an old temple.
The next morning, they searched around for information. "My daughter was kidnapped, she just had a boyfriend." "My granddaughter was about to get married." "My neighbor, she was in a love triangle with this guy, and her friend liked him too." "My friend liked this guy."
"Damn, why does all the girls who were kidnapped were in love or something?" Mizuki asked. Tenten shrugged and said, "I have no clue." Neji looked at Tenten and then Mizuki.
They slept at the old temple, and the next day, they searched for information.
They kept this going for two weeks, finding no more information then the girls who were kidnapped were in a relationship with a guy.
One night, while Neji was getting wood to make fire, a ninja came in, hitted Mizuki and Tenten with a wood behind their necks, makign them fainted. He then hitted Mizuki's and Tenten's the middle of their back, causing them to stop their chakra flow. He carried Mizuki and Tenten in each arm.
Neji came in and in a flash, he felt his chakra was decreasing. Neji knelt down, feeling the pain coming. The kidnapper then hitted Neji with a wood behind his neck, and Neji feel unconscious.
Tenten woke up to an unknown place, her hands and feets tied together, a black fabric covered her mouth. She looked over at Mizuki and tired to wake her up. She dragged herself next to Mizuki and kicked her slightly, she tried to say 'Mizuki' but the words came out as mumbles. She kicked Mizuki alittle big harder.
Mizuki didn't wake up.
Tenten dragged herself closer to Mizuki and kicked Mizuki's knee hard. Mizuki woke up and tried to sit up. She looked at Tenten. Mizuki struggled to get the black fabric off of her mouth. The black fabric fell off of her mouth and hung onto her neck. "Whoever tied this doesn't know how to tie it tight enough." Tenten did the same and the black fabric fell and hung on her neck. "For real."
The door opened to show a black figure. The figured closed the door behind him and said, "You two are going to suffer." Mizuki looked at him and said, "You can't do that. We didn't do anything to you." He laughed out loud and said, "No one can trust women. They lie, they cheat, they play, and they can do whatever they can to hurt the guy. Love triangles and cheating is what females love to start. They should be gone. Marriage and starting relationships is a step closer of being in love triangles and cheating. All females do is hurt the guy."
"Ah? So this guy is heartbroken? That's why you're taking females?" Tenten said. "SHUT UP!" He took out a weapon and tried to hit Tenten with it, but Mizuki jumped in front of Tenten, and the weapon hitted Mizuki in the stomach, causing her to bleed alittle. "Mizuki, are you okay?" Tenten said. Mizuki nodded.
"Females are fakes. I know that you don't like her for a good reason." The guy said. Tenten looked at Mizuki and nodded, "I didn't like her before, but we became good friends after awhile." The guy laughed, "Really! I could tell from the past few weeks, you two like your guy teammate, and he's confused, he doesn't know which one he loves more. You two know that the other person likes him, and you're still friends. That's bullshit."
"I think you're the one that's talking bullshit here." Mizuki said. He got angrier and hitted both of them with his weapon, causing the both of them to bleed like crazy.
Meanwhile ... Neji woke up and looked around the temple. He jumped up to see a note that says, "If you want your little teammates or lovers, meet me at the wood house tomorrow night, around eleven. See you there." Neji crumbled the picture and ran out of the temple. He had only alittle bit more chakra, and it's slowly decreasing. Shit, how did he hit my chakra points without even having Byakugan. Does he know where most of the chakra is from? Damn you, Neji. You had to faint while they were being kidnapped!
He kept on thinking negative the whole way. He looked around for a wooden house. He finally found one at a deserted place. He went inside to see a note. He opened it and it read, "Ah, ah, ah! Don't be impatient. If you stay here the whole night, you won't get your teammates back." Neji crumbled it in frustration. He walked around the temple in circles. Day came, he went to a hotel and ate.
He walked back into the old temple and walked into circles. His chakra wouldn't increase! He walked in circles until night fell. Neji walked in circles faster until he felt it was almost eleven. He ran to the same wooden house he went to last night.
