Everybody is already inside the Hokage Mansion's main hall. Even though it was so hard to fix the hall in their kimonos they still made sure that everything was shipshape for the Elders of the Fire Country.

"I still can't believe Tenten's a princess," said Sakura.

"Yeah. I'm not saying Tenten's not pretty or anything like that but I always thought that princesses have the beauty that can make anyone fall in love with her. I kinda expected the princess to be you." Replied Ino.

"Actually Tenten has the beauty…" defended Temari.

"Oh, hey Temari." Greeted Ino.

"Unlike all of us in this age group she doesn't try to be beautiful. She tried her best to conceal the beauty of a princess." Explained Temari.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" asked Shikamaru.

"I came here because of my own free will and to support a friend of mine that turned out to be a princess." Replied Temari.

A blush crept on Shikamaru's face when he finally saw Temari's hair down. After a few minutes Tsunade entered the hall and gave a signal to settle down. The main hall really looked like a palace in ancient Japan. There was one row on each side of the aisle. On each aisle there were mats were Naruto and the others can sit down on. At the end of the aisle is a big fancy chair. A long red rag covers the aisle; in short everything is perfect for crumby Elders. After a few seconds the 2 doors opened and in went Tenten. Everybody had one thing in mind at that time…is that really Tenten? (A/n: Tenten is wearing what maidens used to where in ancient Japan…) Tenten looked so beautiful…even Sasuke was stunned. For the 1st time, they all saw Tenten with make-up on, well only lipstick…Tenten walked through the aisle like a real princess…poise and grace…how did Tenten manage to hide this? As soon as Tenten sat on the big fancy chair, came in the Elders of the Fire country. Well not all of them were old…there was actually a cute guy with long dark blue hair in a high ponytail and a mole under his right eye. He looks like he's 18-19 years old…The elders and the guy sat down on the mats in front of the big fancy chair Tenten sat on.

"It's been a long Lady Tenten," started the guy. Neji glared at the guy.

"It's been years, Jino," replied Tenten.

"Lady Tenten it's good to see you grew up to be as beautiful as your mother." Said an old lady.

"What's the situation of the country, Baa-chan?" Asked Tenten.

"That's Tenten's grandmother?" thought Temari.

"Neighboring countries are threatening to invade the Fire country…" started the old lady. Tenten bit her lip.

"How is, how is father?" asked Tenten.

"He's dead. The new leader is your brother Kenji." Replied the old lady. Tenten sighed.

"I see…any sign of mother?" asked Tenten. Her grandmother shook her head. The guys almost felt sorry for her.

"Are you going to return to our country, Tenten-hime?" asked Jino.

"I'm sorry, but not now…send my regards to my brother, tell him I believe in him." Replied the princess. Silence…

"For now, enjoy your stay in Konoha. You will like it here…" said Tenten with a smile.

"You act like your mother, Tenten…" thought Jino. Tenten got of the big fancy chair, the signal that the evening has begun.

Naruto and the others walked towards the elders to do their mission…accommodate them…of course Ino and Sakura almost ran towards Jino. After a few minutes Princess Tenten was nowhere to be found.

"Where's Tenten?!" asked Temari.

"I have no Idea." Replied Sakura. Sasuke just so happened to be passing by and he overheard their conversation. Sasuke disappeared in a flash.

Tenten…

The runaway princess walked through the forest. She jumped on a tree and sat on the branch. She enjoyed the silence…it gave her time to think about the decision she made. She got out a sigh and she placed her hands behind her head. She closed her eyes and lied down until…

"What's the runaway princess doing here?" asked Sasuke. Tenten opened her eyes and saw the Uchiha's head above her. She also saw the onyx eyes of Sasuke. She got lost in his eyes. After a few seconds of staring she blinked, he blinked and Tenten finally came back to her senses. She yelled and got up.

"WHAT IN THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!?" yelled Tenten.

"Is that the language of a princess?" taunted Sasuke.

"Wha-why are you here?" asked Tenten.

"They're looking for you." Replied Sasuke.

"I don't care and you still haven't answered my question!"

"Hn."

"You really resemble Neji. Why do prodigies use the same language?"

"Don't compare me to that Hyuuga." Said Sasuke. Silence.

"Why did you, why did you even leave Konoha?" asked Tenten. Sasuke knew she's a bit angry with him because of the Hyuuga.

"Your angry with me, aren't you?" he asked.

"Yes…it's for revenge right?" she said.

"You answered your own question."

"I knew you left for a childish reason…that's why I'm angry with you," she said. Sasuke twitched. Who the heck does this chick think she is to tell him that? He glared at her.

"You can never understand." Replied Sasuke.

"Actually we almost went through the same thing…" she replied. Sasuke stared at her for a while…

"I grew up in a world full of greed and lust for power…" she started.

"My father was the 1st dictator of the Fire country. He didn't care about anything, only power and domination. Every citizen in the Fire country hated my family. My father wanted me to be the next ruler because he thought my twin brother was worthless and he had no courage in him…it's true that he wasn't into politics…truth is I thought he was gay…but he's not gay he had a crush on one of my classmates…anyway my mother didn't want me to be a dictator like daddy dearest so we escaped…that night we escaped my mother was caught by the guards…she pushed me off the cliff just to make sure I won't go into politics…I guess my father sentenced her death or life imprisonment or something like that…" she ended. Sasuke twitched again…

"You can't hide your true emotions princess…" he said. He looked at her empty brown eyes that was full of sadness…

"Don't call me princess…I'm still not finished lecturing you about how childish you are!" she said. Sasuke's eyes narrowed.

"Is that Hyuuga really important to you?" he asked.

"He's one of my best friends, of course he's important to me!" Tenten replied because of her rage she almost fell down the branch. Luckily Sasuke managed to hold Tenten's waist…

Silence…

"Let me go!" she yelled.

"Hn."

"I'm-I'm going back..." said Tenten. In seconds Tenten was nowhere to be found. After moments of silence Sasuke followed…
