A More Proper Makeover

Once again the large group of sixteen was making its way around the large castle taking many random turns and passing many empty rooms. Finally they reached a door labeled Wardrobe. This confused them, they thought they would be going to, well a much larger room. It shouldn't have surprised them when Harumi opened a door to reveal what looked like a small boutique. There were bright lights and mirrors all around the room like a vanity the size of a wall with chairs to sit and apply make up or do hair. Along one wall there were many wardrobes, supposedly filled with the princesses' clothes and four white circular pedestals stood in the center of the room. Three tables off to the side each had four chairs around them and were being weighted down with yards of fabric, pins, shears, tape measures and other sewing accessories. At one table a man was sitting flipping through one of many fashion magazines that had been spread across the top of it.

"Good evening Masashi" Harumi said alerting the man to their presence. The man turned around in his chair. He was a fairly handsome man and very well groomed. He smiled brightly upon seeing them.

"Hello Harumi dear, you look fantastic" he said cheerfully getting up from his seat to greet them. "Akiko, Yukiko, Natsumi also just as beautiful as ever." The girls all smiled and curtsied.

"Masashi I believe my father informed you of Friday night's coming events?" Harumi questioned.

"Oh of course" he said still smiling "and I cannot wait to meet the young ladies who I will be transforming into the four girls I have known so very long. Come in and introduce me." They all entered, the boys edging off to the tables.

"Masashi we would like you to meet Sakura, Ino, Tenten, and Hinata." Akiko said. Masashi's eyes moved away from her and to the kunoichi, the smile on his face dropped for a second but returned just as quickly. This did not go unnoticed. "Well I have always enjoyed a challenge please take your shoes off and stand up on those." He waved his hand to the four white pedestals and crossed to one of the tables, two of which the boys had occupied the empty seats, in search of a tape measure. Akiko, Natsumi and Harumi all went to take a seat in front of the mirror. Yukiko lagged behind and whispered to the slightly shocked girls.

"Please do not feel offended" She said somewhat desperately "He has been dressing us since we were born and doesn't believe anyone could compare to us." She did not say this in a snobby way but instead looked very apologetic.

The girls did not look completely convinced that his attitude was all based on comparison but they let it slide. As the stepped up on to the pedestals they also heard her mutter that Masashi was not afraid to speak his mind. She took the final seat in front of the mirror, Suzu still at her feet. Tenten nervously glanced at the others who also looked some what anxious. The last comment must have gotten to them. Tenten could handle the boys watching them all day it didn't bug her at all really, because honestly they couldn't have done any of those things any better then them. 'Okay so maybe having Neji watching too was a little nerve racking but not too much'. But standing in the middle of a room on a freaking pedestal with all the lights on her as some guy she didn't know walked around shouting out all her imperfections that was just plain embarrassing. 'I know I'm not perfect, but I don't want someone pointing this out to me.' She barely heard Sakura whispering to Ino off to her left. "I wish we could get the boys to leave they're so annoying just sitting their watching." Sakura was blushing and throwing nervous looks at the boys. They were standing facing the boys who were dunking as Masashi threw random things off the table in search of what ever else he needed. Tenten looked to her right; Hinata was looking down at her at her bare feet and playing with her fingers. She thought about how the girl's confidence was already shot down on a daily basis and that this was probably mortifying to her, standing in the middle of a room already in clothes that made her uncomfortable while this man judged her in front of nearly every boy she knew.

"Hey Hinata" Tenten whispered.

"Huh?" She looked up from her feet to her brown haired friend.

"Its going to be okay, just ignore the boys pretend they're not here." Tenten said quietly, even if she didn't believe it herself. Hinata smiled a little bit. Farther down the line Sakura and Ino were also smiling and nodding trying to make Hinata feel better about the whole situation.

"Alright so how should we begin this?" Masashi was saying more to himself then to everyone else. He walked around looking them up and down making them feel more uncomfortable then they had imagined. They stood with the best posture they could manage and occasionally he would stop in front of them to examine closer. Sometimes he would poke or prod them and they would have to fight their instincts to slap him. He finally stopped on Hinata's end of the row.

"Well I did say I like a challenge" he said this and Tenten had a strong feeling she knew what he was going to do next. "You," he started with Hinata "are much to short, but there is not much you can do for that, you," he moved down to Tenten "have horrible skin" next Sakura "you have to much muscle then a young lady should have and you," finally coming to Ino "are a bit too scrawny" Everyone in the rooms jaws dropped, except Masashi. The princesses had obviously been hoping that Masashi would be nice to them and never excepted him to speak so freely. They had assumed the boys would laugh but they seemed to be too shocked to even move. 'We are ninja' Tenten thought 'we're not supposed to be models.' Tenten did not voice these thoughts but Sakura was a little more outspoken.

"I am supposed to have a lot a muscle I'm a kunoichi" she nearly shouted. You would have to look closely to see Sakura had a lot of strength.

"Yeah" Tenten had found her tongue now "and I'm not going to have flawless skin I spend most of my time outside, with weapons" She was very freakily from the sun and had many scars, cuts, bumps and bruises from sparring.

"And I…" as Ino was about to voice her own opinion she was cut off.

"I am only telling you what is true, I said you had more muscle then a young lady should, not that a kunoichi should" he said to Sakura "and these other girls I'm sure are out just as much as you but their skin is not as bad as yours" Tenten was going to correct him saying that she was out ten times longer and that sparring with Neji on a daily basis was maybe a little more tough then what they did but instead kept her mouth shut. This went on for about ten minutes, listening to Masashi mutter to him self about all the problems with them. On occasion they could her him mutter a good comment such as nice eye color or skin tone and at one point they thought they heard him say something about ear size.

"Alright now I need to get all of your measurements, this might take a while, Natsumi dear could you please write them down for me, there is a clip board right on that table" Natsumi picked up the clipboard as Masashi took out the tape measure and began measuring Ino. He did all sorts of basic measurements like height, around the waist and hips, waist to floor, waist to ankle, arm length (both shoulder to finger tip and wrist). Then he moved on to oddly strange ones like around the neck and shoulders. Measuring around Ino's chest nearly got him a slap but Sakura had grabbed her wrist before any contact was made. He went down all four girls which took about an hour and standing on the podiums was getting tiring. The boys, to the girls pleasure, had lost interest with what was going on about fifteen minutes into the measurements and were now doing everything from talking loudly(Naruto, Kiba, Lee) eating(Chouji) sleeping(Shikamaru) or staring/glaring at the walls/door/ceiling (Sasuke, Neji, Shino).

"Okay girls I need you to put your heels on so I can get a few more measurements" There was a group groan from them as they dropped to a sitting position. Harumi gave them each the shoes from earlier and they reluctantly put them on their feet as Masashi took the clipboard from Natsumi and was going over the numbers.

"Can I ask a question?" Sakura said now having one shoe on. The princesses looked at her. "Yeah um how did you get our shoe sizes?"

"Oh I think they were on your records or something like that?" Harumi answered.

"Why would they want our foot size on are ninja record?" Ino asked her fellow kunoichi.

"I could come up with a few reasons, all of which really revolve around really specific missions." Tenten said as she finished with her shoes and stood back up again. Already she winced at the pain. Sakura nearly tripped stepping up on the pedestal. It only took about thirty minutes for these extra measurements and they were pulling the shoes back off and tossing them aside, with a little more strength then necessary. One of Sakura's shoes hit the door and a few seconds later there was a knock. Yukiko rushed to the door and opened it. Lord Asari entered. There was a round of bowing and curtsies through the room.

"A word please Masashi, I'd like to know how progress is going" They both stepped just outside the door leaving it open a bit.

"I cannot believe how well you guys are taking this" Akiko said. "We've had people come here to meet Masashi and leave only half way through the session."

The girls look very proud with themselves all grinning.

"Forget leaving, he pushes them any farther and Mr. Masashi there will be fearing for his life." Shikamaru muttered mostly so just the boys could hear.

"Well we have a pretty good amount of patience," Sakura said "and if anyone snaps it'll be Ino" Ino glared at her pink haired friend but stopped thinking that she was probably right.

"Hey what do you think they're saying" Tenten said referring to the two on the other side of the door. The girls scooted closer to the door being as quiet as possible.

"So you think you can pull this off?" Lord Asari was saying to Masashi.

"It will be tough, they aren't exactly, well you know?"

"Yes I do, but you will try"

"Yes I guess I have too, it should be fine I mean I am me. Those girls will look lovely"

"Yes well good luck with that" he said with some doubt in his voice; then his footsteps starting to walk away.

"That's it the old man is going down!" Ino yelled and lunged at the door. Tenten and Hinata grabbed her arms trying to keep her from bursting through the door.

"Ino it would not be appropriate for a young lady to attack someone like Lord Asari" Sakura said blocking the door. The door then bumped into her signaling that Masashi was trying to get back in. Sakura scrambled out of the way as Ino tried to regain control of her temper. They quickly took their seats again as he walked back in and moved some stuff around on one of the tables. He found four hair brushes and handed one to each of them.

"Okay I need to decide how you will have your hair on Friday so please take it down and brush it out." He then picked up a book full of colors and fabric samples. He turned pages glanced up at them then turned back to the book.

Ino pulled on the elastic in her hair, it twirled out of its bun and into a ponytail which she pulled out the second elastic and began to brush her hair. Hinata and Sakura both pulled out their ponytails, Hinata's hair fell to just below her shoulder blades and Sakura's to a bit above her shoulders. The three girls turned to face Tenten who was staring at the hair brush. Even the boys had turned to watch Tenten; no one was sure what her hair looked like down and now she was being forced to put it down. The princesses did not seem to understand why the tension in the room seem to have grown.

"Okay but this may take a while" she set the brush next to her and began pulling out bobby pins from her hair. And she was right so far five minutes had pasted and she was still taking them out.

"Tenten how many do you have in their?" Sakura said as she looked at the pile of bobby pins in amazement.

"Oh there should only be a few more" finally four more bobby pins later she said finished. The amazed looks moved from the pile to her. "What I have to keep my hair up." She then pulled on the elastics flipped her head over and shook it violently. Long curly brown hair fell in every direction, she then flipped her head back over and it all fell back down to her waist. Even though it was somewhat tangled from being up, they could tell she had very nice hair and stared at her.

"Why do you keep your hair all tied up" Ino nearly shouted at her which led to Tenten dropping the hair brush. "It's so pretty" Tenten sighed, picked up the brush again and began to bring it through her hair.

"Exactly I know I have nice hair and that is why I keep it up" they gave her a blank look "Hello I spend most of my day twirling around with weapons in my hands do you really think my hair would still look like this at the and of the day. I would probably be bald or pretty close to it."

This seemed to make since to them but "but you've hung out with us on your days off how come you never leave it down then?"

Tenten shrugged "Habit" she answered simply.

The boys were looking (gaping) at her, or at least some of them were. Neji had did his best to hide his anticipation with seeing his female teammate's hair down and now he was doing his best to hide the fact that he thought she looked beautiful with it that way.

Masashi looked up from his papers again and saw that all the girls had finished brushing their hair. He hopped up a big smile on his face. "Yes lovely, lovely" he said walking in between them occasionally touching their hair. The girls smiled at each other, this had been the nicest thing he had said to them since they had walked in the room.

"Thank you" Ino said. She seemed to have a much nicer attitude towards him then she had had ten minutes ago. For what must have been another hour they sat there with Masashi holding colors up to them and flipping their hair around so about twenty minutes into it they began talking about what the boys plan is.

"So what is this plan, you only told us you had one and not what it was" Sakura said as Masashi held up some random colors to her hair and eyes.

"Its not really all that complicated" Shikamaru said and coming from the boy who thinks everything is troublesome that's really saying something.

"Do tell us how eight ninja following their four captured teammates without being noticed for who knows how long to an unknown destination, is not complicated" Ino said.

"We won't be traveling in close range; we'll be using tracking devices. It's the only way to be sure we're not seen" Sasuke told them.

"How are we going to hide the devices they'll be pretty noticeable won't they?"

"We thought about that, we figure it'll will be best to hind it on a piece of jewelry."

They thought about this briefly, Masashi was only barely listening to their conversation but the word jewelry had been his cue to put in his input.

"Hey girls" he said and the four princesses looked over at him "What about the necklaces you girls have"

"Oh could that work, we wear them all the time anyways?" asked Natsumi excitedly.

"What are you all talking about?" Tenten asked in complete confusion. Each girl reached up behind their neck then lowered their hands to show each had a necklace. Harumi's was a flower; Yukiko's a snowflake, Natsumi a sun, and Akiko a maple leaf.

"We wear these everyday; it's a family trinket, been in our families for centuries."

"I could get copies of them made and you could put the trackers on them."

"That could work couldn't it?" Hinata asked the boys. It was obvious that only some of them had come up with the plan because some of them looked completely clueless.

"It could work"

After they finished up in the wardrobe room they were feeling pretty good about how the day went. Masashi had given Tenten stuff to smooth her skin and make the scars less visable. He also, on Harumi's orders, apologized if he embarrassed them and said they would meet again Thursday night to see how the outfits come out. They ate dinner in the kitchen again (Sakura didn't think it was a good idea putting Ino in the same room as any of the lords) Natsumi had them practicing their manners the whole time. After they finished Akiko suggested they go out to the garden again tonight but Hinata was nearly falling asleep at the table and Ino Sakura and Tenten looked exhausted so instead they made their way up the giant staircase and down the hall. The boys separated into their room as the princesses escorted the girls back to theirs. Here they forced up the energy to wash up and change before passing out as soon as they hit the beds.
Okay so i hoped you like it sorry about grammer/spelling mistakes or stuff that don't make sence. i didn't reread it as many times as i usually do.
