A/N: I'm currently very annoyed. I lost everyone's class schedules so I forget who has what with who! Ugh, annoying.

Anyway, I hope Kiba doesn't seem too OOC. In fact, I hope none of the Rookie Nine and Gai's team come off as OOC

There were two cafeterias in Konoha Academy. One was reserved for the freshmen and sophomores, and the other was for the juniors and seniors. The philosophy behind this arrangement was that, as long as the two groups remained in their respective cafeterias, the younger students wouldn't be in danger of being harassed by the older students. Or at least that was how Hinata explained it to Tenten.

With those sorts of ideas, they should just make a different cafeteria for those who are being harassed. Then Neji wouldn't be able to stalk me! Weird as it sounded, the great Hyuuga Neji was indeed stalking poor Tenten, mostly because she and Hinata were walking to the cafeteria together. Hinata, fortunately, had noticed this, and indiscreetly weaved through the lunch crowd, successfully losing him.

After purchasing their lunches they found Sakura and Ino in a table over to the far left of the cafeteria, just the two of them. Sakura was running her fingers through her hair distractedly as she ranted about one thing or another while Ino listened sympathetically and patted her on the back.

"—he's up to something, I just know it. He never acted like that unless he wanted something! And I don't know what's going on!" Sakura moaned and rested her face on her hands.

"Calm down Sakura!" said Ino, barely acknowledging that Tenten and Hinata had just arrived. "It's only Sasuke-kun! And it's been three years. He probably changed, maybe what his actions meant before, they don't mean the same thing now." Sakura only shook her head and began ranting again.

"What are they talking about?" Tenten asked Hinata, "Ino said she'd tell me, but she's preoccupied. What's the deal with the Uchiha?" Hinata sighed, looked around, and then beckoned for Tenten to lean closer to her.

"Sakura-chan had a crush on Sasuke-san when we were younger, Ino-chan too, but not as big." Explained Hinata in a low voice, "They tried everything they could to gain his attention. At least, they did, until the end of eighth grade."

"Then for some reason, Sakura-chan stopped liking Sasuke-san and instead started to hate him."

"Why?"

"I really am not sure; all Sakura-chan says about it was that she saw his true personality." Hinata shrugged, her slim shoulders going up and down, "But she hasn't ever quite explained it."

"There's a good reason for that." Commented Sakura dryly, smirking a little as her friends jumped and at the sheepish expressions on her friends' faces. "There are some things that just shouldn't be let out into the open air."

Besides Sakura, Ino rolled her eyes. "Stop being such a drama queen, Forehead girl." Tenten had to turn completely around in her seat to hide the grin threatening to split across her face from Ino. It also gave her a chance to see if there was anyone trying to stalk her (namely a certain male Hyuuga with a pinecone stuck in his, well you know).

To her surprise, Tenten spotted two boys making their way over to the girls' table. One looked similar to a dog, while the other, with his high collar and sunglasses, just looked creepy.

Tenten nudged Hinata, "Who are they?" she asked, jerking her head in the boys' direction.

"Ah, that's Kiba-kun and Shino-kun!"

"Those guys are your friends?"

"Yes," Hinata nodded and smiled. "They are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet."

"Really? They don't really look like—" Tenten broke off when the boys came within earshot.

"Hel-lo ladies." Said the brown haired boy, sliding into the seat on Hinata's other side and winking at Ino and Sakura. "Haven't seen any of you in a while." The boy with glasses took a seat besides Sakura, completely silent without even a hello.

"Good to see you again too, Kiba-kun, Shino-kun" said Sakura cheerfully, nodding at both boys, "You guys haven't changed a bit."

"I don't know 'bout that. As Hinata will tell you, I got more roguishly handsome," Sakura and Ino both rolled their eyes and Hinata shook her head, "Aw, don't deny it, you know I'm right! And Shino hasn't talked for the past three years—"

"I would like to protest that." Said Shino, without any trace of emotion in his voice.

"—until this very moment. Would it kill you to cooperate with me once in a while?"

"Yes."

"Thank you for being so tactful." Sniffed Kiba, "By the way, who are you?" the question was directed to Tenten, who was caught slightly off guard. She was silent, re-remembering her lessons to make sure she wouldn't screw up.

"Well?" prompted Kiba, "You aren't mute like Shino, are you?"

"Kiba-kun!" reproached Hinata

"Sorry!" Tenten couldn't help but snicker at how Kiba immediately bowed down to Hinata.

"It's alright." Tenten extended a hand, "I'm Toyo."

"Inuzuka Kiba." Kiba grabbed her hand and shook it roughly. "Where did you come from?"

"Suna High."

"With Ino and Sakura, eh? So, which one is it?"

"Eh?"

"Well, you obviously must be either Sakura's or Ino's boyfriend, so which one of the Flower Sisters has you whipped?" Tenten promptly choked on a mouthful of rice. Sakura and Ino both gagged on their own food, their faces red from lack of breath and choked laughter. Hinata giggled, amused.

"Hey! You okay?" Kiba gave Tenten a good thump on the back, clearing her lungs.

"I'm fine." Tenten assured him, once she had taken a few deep breaths. "And what are you talking about? I'm nobody's boyfriend."

"You sure? Why else would be hanging with a group of girls? Wait," he gave Tenten a scrutinizing glance. "You aren't, um, you know…" he trailed off awkwardly.

"No. I'm not, don't worry. I just haven't met any cool guys yet. 'Cept maybe you and Mr. Quiet over there."

Kiba's eyebrows rose, "No one? You haven't met Uzumaki, Nara, or Akimichi yet?"

"I'm a senior."

"Ah, that explains it. No offense, but your class year sucks. But don't worry; we usually hang out with the rest of the Shinobi team. There are some really cool guys there, you'll like them. Ah, look, there they are! HEY GUYS! DID SUMMER SOFTEN YOUR BRAINS OR SOMETHING? OVER HERE!" he called, waving his arms in huge arcs. The group of males he was beckoning to rolled their eyes and walked over to the table. Tenten had to hold back a groan; Neji and Lee were among them.

"That's the Shinobi team?" Tenten heard Ino ask in an incredulous tone.

"Yep." Said Kiba proudly, "You're looking at the best Shinobi team in the whole district. Maybe even in Japan"

"So either the other teams are crap, or the lazy ass is more than he seems." Ino muttered quietly, her entire face twitching. Fortunately, Kiba didn't hear her, or if he did, he didn't comment.

"Who? Shikamaru? He's nice, why do you keep calling him that?" Sakura asked.

"He's a lazy ass I'm telling you! He's a complete, total—"

"What, Ino?" drawled the pineapple headed boy Tenten assumed was Shikamaru, who sat at the table to their left, in the chair farthest away from Ino as physically possible.

"Nothing that you would care about. Hasn't anyone ever taught you not to listen to things not meant for your ears?"

"I've tried, but it's never worked." Commented an orange-haired, big-boned boy with more food on his tray than anyone else Tenten thought was possible. He sat down next to Shikamaru.

"Why not, Chouji?" asked Ino

"He keeps wiggling out of it."

"Have you ever tried tying him to a chair? That could work."

"Maybe, but he would probably wiggle out of that as well."

"HELLO MY FRIENDS!" Rock Lee walked right in front of their table and gave the 'nice guy' pose Tenten had become very familiar with. "Good to see you again, lovely ladies of youth! Particularly you, Sakura-san!" There were hearts in his eyes as he said her name. When neither girl responded, Tenten turned around to face them. Both girls were staring at Lee, open-mouthed with horror.

"Oh, Lee-san, what happened to you?" asked Sakura, staring at him as though there was an alien in front of her (though that wasn't far from the truth).

"A most wondrous thing, my lovely Sakura-san! Our new PE teacher, Gai-sensei, is a wonder! He has completely transformed our PE curriculum to better showcase our youth!"

"And that relates to your image change how?" asked Ino.

"Because of his wonderful influence, I have chosen to emulate his appearance as a tribute to him!" Once again, Rock Lee gave a grin that went ping.

"Ah, emulate, eh?" Sakura muttered in a much lower voice only Ino (and Tenten) could hear.

"No wonder the orphanage didn't let him have Tenten. Eyebrows like that are terrifying." Ino whispered back.

"Maybe that's just Lee-san." Suggested Sakura

"No, this Gai-sensei will have them too. Imagine the bowl cut without them!" Tenten coughed loudly and the hushed conversation came abruptly to an end.

"What do you mean, 'changed the curriculum', Lee?" inquired Tenten politely, as the boys all sat down at the table next to the girls'.

"He has made sure that we use all of our youth in challenging exercises in sets of hundreds and sometimes thousands!"

"Translation: PE has become pure hell!" groaned a blond boy, sitting in the chair nearest to Hinata, smiling at her. The Hyuuga girl quickly colored up, but offered a shy smile of her own. Tenten mentally smiled, recognizing the boy as the Naruto of Hinata's dreams.

"Not to mention," Lee pointedly ignored Naruto's words, "He has done wonders for the Shinobi team."

"Wonders is not the word." Stated Neji, his eyes looking elsewhere. Tenten was grateful that he wasn't sitting near her; he had glared at her too much during Home Economics. Of course, insisting on joining Hinata's group in front of him probably hadn't been the best idea.

"I agree with Hyuuga, pain is more like the word." Said Kiba, shoveling food into his mouth like there was no tomorrow.

"No it's not, dog-breath, you just can't keep up." Taunted Naruto.

"Shut it, Naruto-baka!"

"Is that the best you can come up with?"

"Unlike you, I don't exactly practice my insults! It's only the first day!"

"Why you—"

"So, how exactly has this Gai person changed the curriculum?" Tenten directed her question to the other boys, completely ignoring the arguing of Naruto and Kiba.

"A lot less playing basketball, and a lot more running, push ups, and sit ups. Sometimes we don't even get to the sports." Summarized the boy Ino had called Chouji. He grimaced, "It wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't so genuine in thinking that it actually helps us."

"Ugh. And the Shinobi team?"

"That isn't so bad, thank goodness."

"Only because Gai spends most of it challenging Kakashi to pointless contests." Remarked Shikamaru. "I think their last count was eight hundred ninety seven or something.

So Kakashi-sensei is that rival Gai-sensei always talked about. Gai, when she had known him, was very fond of ranting about how he would one day beat his 'eternal rival Ka—' invariably, someone would come along and interrupt him right as he was about to declare the rival's name, so Tenten had never learned it.

"Why so interested?" asked Chouji curiously.

"No particular reason," said Tenten, a little too quickly, "but I have friends who've been trained by him, and they usually came back half-dead from his instructions."

"That's Gai." The boys chorused monotonously.

"Hn, he's nowhere near as crazy as that new teacher, that Anko woman, though." Stated Sasuke monotonously, the first time he had spoken. Tenten noted that his attention seemed to be directed in Sakura's general direction, but had Sakura not been cringing ever so slightly, she probably wouldn't have noticed.

"What's she like?" asked Ino curiously, "According to this schedule, I'm stuck with her all year."

"To sum it up: she's more troublesome than you'll ever be." Ino glowered at Shikamaru, but chose to ignore the remark.

"What, is she some militant woman or something?"

" I wish. No, she's just hyper. And strong enough to break concrete walls. I think she's the reason that the food prices shot up so much this year. They had to pay for the damages somehow." Said Chouji, looking at the half eaten mountain of food on his plate a little ruefully. Shikamaru patted him on the back sympathetically. Ino giggled, amused.

"She sounds like Sakura. I probably can handle her the way I handle Billboard Brow over here." She lightly punched Sakura on the shoulder. Sakura scowled, but went back to eating her rice as though nothing had happened. Tenten was surprised at the lack of reaction, but then remembered that Sakura had never been very talkative (or prone to showing her violent side) around people she didn't know very well or didn't like very much.

"Why didja call Sakura-chan Billboard Brow?" asked Naruto curiously.

"Because her forehead could be used to advertise on the highway." Explained Ino, following up her statement with a poke to the so-called-too-big-forehead.

"Watch it, pig." Sakura took revenge with a permanent marker, marring Ino's perfect skin with a black slash across her cheek.

"Sakura!" cried Ino, distressed. She pulled a make up mirror out of her blouse and flicked it open, examining the mark upon her face.

"Nice." Approved Tenten, giving Sakura a high five, laughing slightly.

"You know each other well?" asked Sasuke, his eyes elsewhere, like he wasn't really paying attention. Despite the lack of eye contact, Tenten felt a deep chill run through her body.

Sakura saved her from answering, "Yes Sasuke, Toyo-kun has been our friend for a while, for all that he is a senior. We get along very well, and he actually values our opinions." She gave him a cold smile and returned to her food.

Woah, she actually had a crush on him a one point? Tenten was more than a little bewildered. She knew Sakura had a huge range of emotions, but 'frosty' wasn't one that she had expected to apply to the pink haired girl.

"Hn. How would you know that?" It was Neji who spoke this time, his eyes resting on Tenten, the complete blankness of his eyes disturbing her greatly.

"What does that mean?" demanded Sakura, irked.

"It means what it sounds like." Was all Neji would say. The rest of the boys rolled their eyes, except for Lee, though he looked like he might.

Not again! Ugh, this has to stop!

"Hyuuga," it felt strange addressing him by his last name, but Tenten continued, "Would you just calm down? I'm perfectly safe." It sounded lame, even to her, but Tenten was having trouble thinking with all of the guys' attention focused on her (except for Kiba and Naruto, who were still arguing. And Shino, who didn't care).

Ino, who had successfully rubbed off the mark on her cheek, spoke up.

"Yeah, what's wrong with Toyo, Neji-kun? Don't you trust my judgment?" Ino pouted and batted her eyelashes 'flirtatiously' at him. Tenten rolled her eyes as Neji, his eye twitching, turned to Sasuke to engage him in conversation. Inwardly, she breathed a sigh of relief and mouthed a 'thank you' to Ino, who simply nodded and turned to Hinata, who had remained silent throughout the exchange.

A tap on the shoulder directed her attention to Kiba, who had finally broken off the argument with Naruto.

"Hey, don't worry too much about Neji, 'kay?" he spoke softly as not to attract attention, "He's like that with everyone who even talks to Hinata. He'll get used to you, don't worry about it."

"I won't. Thanks." She grinned at him. "You're on the Shinobi team, right?" Kiba nodded, "Well, can you tell me what sort of exercises you do?"

"No problem, Katana." Kiba immediately launched into a very detailed description of the training regime, their instructors, etc, etc. Tenten just listened, and occasionally asked questions, for the remainder of the lunch hour.

When the bell finally rang and the group went off in their separate directions, Tenten breathed a sigh of relief and hoped that she wouldn't be stuck in the same situation for the rest of the day.

Sadly, this prayer would not be answered.

The end of the day finally came, along with the class that Tenten had been dreading more that any other.

Gym.

It wasn't that she didn't like gym—she loved it—but gym meant uniforms, and locker rooms, and undressing in front of classmates.

Understandably, this was a problem.

But the other reason Tenten was dreading gym was thanks to Gai. Despite his complete strangeness, Gai-sensei was very intelligent and would probably recognize her if she wasn't careful. And there would go her chance to prove she was as good as the boys.

So as she entered the locker room to change, Tenten was reasonably nervous. But to her complete joy, she found that no one else was in the locker room. Taking advantage of the complete emptiness, she changed as quickly as she could, her back to the locker room door.

Right as she was about to pull her shirt over her head, Tenten heard the door open and someone come up behind her. In a nearly apoplectic frenzy, she yanked her shirt over her head and spun around, ready to bite off the head of whoever had entered the room, before remembering that it was a locker room and people were expected to see other people changing.

Inwardly, she cursed that it was also the only person that she really really didn't wan t to almost catch her who had walked in on her.

"What are you in such a panic about?" asked Hyuuga Neji, an irritated look pasted on his face.

"Heh, nothing. Just surprised me, that's all." Tenten put a hand behind her head sheepishly and non-too-gently slammed the locker door shut. Neji didn't even flinch as the sound bounced and echoed around the room. Instead, he went over to some random locker, shoved his gym bag in it and proceeded to take off his shirt, forcing the poor traumatized Tenten to avert her eyes as a slight blush rose on her face. She was used to seeing guys without their shirts on—all of her friends before Sakura and Ino had been male—but she was still a girl (with stupid hormones) and if Neji caught her looking at him, her reputation would take a definite nose dive.

The obvious solution was to get out of the locker room, but Tenten wasn't quite sure she was ready to face Gai just yet.

"AWESOME! The team's all here!"

…But when Naruto and Lee came in waving their shirts like some sort of flag, with the rest of the Shinobi team and other boys thundering in behind them, Tenten threw caution into the wind and ran out of the locker room as fast as her legs could carry her.

The Konoha Academy gym was large and spacious, big enough to hold the whole student population in at any given time. Painted right in the middle of the floor was a giant nine tailed fox, painted dark red, all of its needle sharp teeth revealed in a vicious snarl. Many of the girls had already changed and were seated around the fox, chatting easily with each other. A few eyed Tenten and batted their eyelashes at him/her. Tenten suppressed a shudder and went to talk to her friends, finding them easily (Sakura's hair really came in handy at times like these).

"So you survived Kurenai-sensei, huh?" Ino asked once Tenten reached them.

" 'Survive' is a little harsh, don't you think, Ino-pig?" remarked Sakura conversationally, tying up her hair into a short ponytail, her bangs falling to frame her face.

"Yes Ino-chan, Kurenai-sensei is very nice." Said Hinata softly, her hair also done up in a ponytail, though not messy like Sakura's.

"Whatever," Ino rolled her eyes, "Point is, are you feeling okay?"

"I'm fine, Ino. Thanks ever so much for asking." Said Tenten sarcastically. Sakura shook her head, held her hand at eye level and pushed it down, as though lowering something. Not understanding, Tenten gave Sakura a confused look. Exasperated, Sakura mouthed 'lower your voice!'

Oh. Oops.

"So, where are the senseis?" asked Tenten, seating herself besides Hinata. Almost everyone had come out of the locker rooms, including the Shinobi team. From where she was sitting, Tenten could see Neji give her a death glare. She gulped nervously and averted her eyes.

"They are waiting for everyone to come in; Hinata says they address the whole PE period together before giving us a physical 'test'" Sakura said 'test' as though it gave her a bad taste in her mouth.

Gai-sensei, some psycho woman, and a physical test. This will not end well. Tenten opened her mouth to voice this thought, before a loud, booming, and all too familiar voice interrupted her.

"ALL STUDENTS TO THE MIDDLE OF THE GYM! PLEASE SPLIT INTO GROUPS BASED ON GENDER!" A larger version of Lee waltzed into the gym with the exact same eyebrows, bowl cut, and too-shiny teeth. That was Maito Gai, not looking a bit different from what Tenten remembered.

All of the students jumped to obey him, dividing into the two groups and seating themselves properly. Tenten found herself sitting between Lee and Kiba, and right in front of Shino and behind Neji, much to her relief (it wasn't like he could see out the back of his head).

"Excellent!" declared Gai, grinning broadly once everyone was quiet, "Now all we have to do is wait for my colleague, Mitarashi Anko, before we can begin!"

BANG!

As if on cue, the wall behind him suddenly exploded. Several girls (and boys) screamed loudly as bits of wall flew everywhere. Gai only sighed and shook his head.

"Hello, squirts!" Once the smoke cleared, a woman with violet eyes and hair drawn up in a messy bun became visible. She was grinning broadly and appeared to be in her early twenties.

"Looks like prices are going to go up again," remarked Chouji sadly.

"Anko, I understand that you have plenty of youth to use, and that you must use it, but aren't you overdoing it a bit?" asked Gai, a confused smile plastered on his face.

A bit? The entire class period sweatdropped.

"Aw, don't be such a spoilsport, Gai! Anyway," Anko continued, "Shouldn't you be telling these kids how you expect them to use their youth?"

That did it. Gai instantly forgot about the hole in the wall behind him and remembered his most important goal at the moment: explaining to his students the reason that youth was such a good thing.

"Thank you for reminding me! Now, students, the Power of Youth is the most powerful force that anyone can use! People must…" Tenten had heard this particular speech that she just tuned him out, choosing instead to look around at her fellow classmates. Sakura and Ino weren't even bothering to pay attention; Ino had out her cell phone and was playing some game on it while Sakura watched. Hinata, on the outside, looked like she was paying attention, but a second look showed how her eyes were glazed over.

In her own group, Sasuke and Naruto were arm wrestling, with Sasuke winning, of course. Kiba yawned extravagantly and his eyes were half-lidded with sleepiness (though how he could be sleepy with all the noise, Tenten didn't know). Chouji wasn't doing much better, while Shikamaru had actually fallen asleep, his head in his hands. Neji appeared to be sitting completely still and ignoring everybody, along with Shino. Rock Lee was the only one who was listening whole-heartedly to Gai, occasionally joining in the speech with parts of his own.

"—and that's why youth, when used correctly, is a most powerful force!" There was a pause, and the students all relaxed, glad the speech was over.

"Now let us all do 300 push ups!"

"WHAAA????!!!" yelled the students, Tenten included.

If I didn't already know he was insane, I would certainly think so now!

"You heard me!" he smiled another dazzling smile. "To figure out if you have been using your youth correctly, I must assess you by seeing how many push ups you can do on my count!"

"Only the boys though," clarified Anko. "Girls, come with me. You won't be doing push ups." Several girls let out sighs of relief, Ino was smirking smugly.

An evil smile.

"No, we'll be working on, ah, extending your range of flexibility."

Despite the fact that she was about to be forced to do 300 push ups, Tenten felt considerably luckier than the girls who were being led to the other side of the gym.

300 push ups, 1000 crunches, and 250 leg lifts later, Tenten was half dead with exhaustion. Only years of physically conditioning herself had helped her survive the exercises Gai had put them through. Thank god they wouldn't do the endurance tests until the next day.

Tenten was also grateful she wasn't in her friends' positions at that moment, namely, her back on the floor with her legs right up against the wall and spread as far as they could go, and holding that position.

"C'mon girls! It's a simple exercise! Just because it's called 'Murder' doesn't mean that you should actually act like you're being murdered!" Anko's voice rang clearly through the gym, along with several pained groans.

After a few hundred more painful exercises, Gai declared them 'sufficiently youthful' and sent the boys to the locker room to get dressed. Tenten lingered behind, wondering how she was going to get dressed with all of the guys in the locker room. However, she didn't get enough time to ponder that question when Gai suddenly called on her.

"Katana Toyo-kun, would you come here?" Apprehensive, Tenten walked over to where Gai was standing. She had been doing her best to stay out of his sight the entire period; scared to death he might recognize her.

Maybe if I look at this like a test, a big, scary, final exam that will destroy me if I fail, it won't be so scary…

Needless to say, Tenten was a nervous wreck.

"Toyo-kun, I understand that you are new here?" Gai began cheerfully, for once not having a blinding smile, but a regular one.

"Yes, Gai-sensei." Inwardly, Tenten congratulated herself for keeping her male voice level without even squeaking.

"Have you ever been in this part of town before?" Tenten shook her head.

"No, Gai-sensei."

"Odd, I thought your aura of youthfulness was familiar, like one of my students." Gai for a moment looked puzzled, then regained his typical expression. "Either way, I look forward to getting to know you better this year! Your youth is most excellent!"

Tenten could only nod before turning on her heel and running in the opposite direction as fast as she could. Without even bothering to see if the locker room was devoid of changing boys, she grabbed her things and ran out of the locker room, deciding that she could just change at home.

As soon as the bell rang she ran into the parking lot, jumped into her car and drove off, going faster than the speed limit, but she didn't really care. Tenten didn't even stop to think until she was safely in her apartment, with the door locked and bolted behind her.

Without a second thought, Tenten yanked her hair out of its braid, removed the bandages around her torso, and changed quickly into more comfortable clothing. Once that was done she lay back on her bed, turning over the day's events in her mind.

Senseis? Strange, but manageable.

Homework? Simple enough, but could take some time, though.

Lunch? Caution needed, but overall fine.

Gym? Tricky, will have to be careful.

Hyuuga Neji?

Tenten pondered him carefully before reaching her conclusion.

Be very, very careful. He is probably going to be a huge obstacle.

Friends?

A smile crept up her face.

Meanwhile…

Neji was pondering a confusing situation. And it all had to do with his cousin's new 'friend'.

First, who was the guy? Neji had never heard a thing about Katana before, which was odd considering how he was supposedly was a Shinobi. As captain of the Shinobi team, Neji knew the names of all Shinobi in the region. Or so he thought.

Second, Katana was hanging out with Hinata in a far too familiar manner. No way in hell would he let that continue.

Third, Gai thought he had recognized this Katana, and Gai was many things, but he was seldom wrong about people's faces. There was also the small thing that Katana had looked horrified for a split second before regaining control of his facial expressions.

Fourth, there was something rather 'off' about the guy.

And Neji was determined to find out what that thing was.

A/N: I'm really sorry about the late update, but I had a hard time being satisfied with this chapter. Writing all of the characters together is really hard!

To those wanting NejiTen fluff: There are a couple chapters to go before Tenten and Neji get fluffy, I'm sorry to say. I want him to meet her as a girl first before getting into the awkward situations.

To those of you who don't know what Murder is, be thankful. It hurts like heck for people who aren't very flexible.

Please review!
