Sorry for the long wait, here you go!
The Next Day
"I'm fed up with riding in limos!" Ino groaned, going back to sipping on her iced tea and trying to finish eating her breakfast bars.
"Shh! We are all in the same boat – I mean limo here." Temari responded, while sending a text.
Hinata was eating a massive bar of chocolate, who she half shared with the chocoholic Tenten. She glanced out the tinted window and sighed inwardly.
Ino was listening to her music, full blast. Everyone felt bad for her headphones.
And again Tenten was sleep eating her half of the chocolate.
They all wore different hoodies.
Temari was in a lighter shade of green, with a white and black chequered hood.
Tenten's was a light blue with a black dragon on her back.
Hinata's grey had a silver collar, and had red vines on her arms.
Ino had on her usual purple – lilac today, with a furry hood, her hoodie only reached just past her chest, with a silver zipper and a lily key chain attached to the zip.
Tayuya went for red sleeveless one, one gold snake pattern wrapping twice around her waist and its head had its jaws open at her throat. This one was her favourite summer piece.
When they reached the university gates, they all gulped at the amount of students running towards them.
"On the count of three." Ino commanded, they all nodded in response.
Hinata put away her chocolate.
"1."
Temari elbowed Tenten in her ribs to wake her.
"2."
They all grabbed their bags.
"3."
In happened in a flash, they flung open the limos doors, escaped and were now running down the street, towards the back entrance.
"SAVE MEEEEEE!" Ino gasped, as she looked back at the fans.
Tenten cried. "I DROPPED MY CHOCOLATE!" she stopped for a millisecond before Temari and Tayuya grabbed her arms and dragged her whilst running.
Hinata rounded the corner first and wasn't even breathing hard. She was captain of the track team in all 10 schools they went to.
She looked back to see how her friends were doing, and she noticed Ino was lacking behind. Hinata didn't want her kind friend trampled. She ran to her and picked her up bridal style and kept up her pace from before.
The fans all squeal. "KAWAII."
Hinata's eyes widened as she heard that. 'Great now they are thinking I'm some prince charming.'
The five managed to get to the back entrance and close the gate, locking it with the loose padlock that hung on the gate.
All of them exhaled, before they started noticing the fans attempts at climbing the slippery gate rails.
The girls didn't take their chances, they ran inside as quick as they could, Putting up their hoods.
They almost got lost, they reached the music hall. But they didn't notice Hinata and Ino suddenly disappearing.
Tayuya was the first to look back. "Erm... guys?"
Temari copied her and gaped. "WHERE THE HELL ARE THEY!?"
...
In some other hall...
Hinata nervously laughed as Ino's glare watched her. "W-well I don't know what happened."
Ino huffed; she knew when Hinata kept running she doesn't notice her surroundings. She grabbed her phone and checked for signal. "Maybe if I call the girls."
Hinata became depressed. "S-Sorry Ino-chan."
Ino looked to her friend and smiled. "It is fine; it's not your fault we didn't know where to go." She put away her phone. "Let's just ask the next person we see."
Ino turned the corner and bumped into someone.
"I-Ino." Hinata said, worrying that her best friend is hurt; she jogged over to her friend, who now sat on the floor.
"I'm fine, Hinata." She replied, sensing the worry. Hinata helped her up.
It was then that the girls noticed what – or more like who she bumped into.
An orange haired stared at Ino. "Well if angels look like you, I don't mind being tortured to look upon your beauty."
Hinata gave a disgusted look, 'Playboy.' She noticed she blonde friend twitch in annoyance.
Loki watched the blonde go speechless. 'She must love me already.'
Ino couldn't hold it in anymore, she laughed and not just a normal laugh, this laugh was like she heard the funniest joke alive. She fell onto her knees and slapped the floor, not stopping her laughter.
Hinata covered her giggles with her hand. "I-Ino."
Ino looked back at her, tears running down her face. "That was the cheesiest line ever." She got up and suppressed her laughter. Hinata gave her a tissue. Ino wiped her tears away. She then looked at the shocked guy. "Thanks I really needed a good laugh." She walked past him.
Hinata had to run to keep up. "Ino-Chan!" she called as the blonde turned another corner.
...
Natsu saw his friend Loki in a frozen state. He ran over and slapped the guy on the back.
"HEY." Loki yelled.
Natsu grinned and grabbed his friends arm and ran to first lesson.
As usual Natsu expected the comments he got when he entered his class. He sat next to Gray and kept his head down.
The lesson went normally, but there were whispers of excitement for what's happening next lesson.
He won't admit it but he was also excited, he found it hard to contain and replace with a blank look he usually wore around there.
The bell went and everyone scramble out in seconds just to reach the music hall first.
...
Hinata had to double check that everything in the back was prepared, guitars, mics, just hand held instruments. They already set up a big drum kit and new keyboard on stage, so it saves time.
Meanwhile Tenten and Temari blocked the main doors, Ino put all their bags under their chairs, and Tayuya was locking up the other doors so they don't get any surprising fans corning them in.
When Hinata and Tayuya came back, Ino already set up their chairs; Tenten and Temari came and sat down with them.
Their security guards lead in a few students at a time, while blocking the main door on the other side.
The auditions started and throughout the first hour they had to block their ears for most of it.
Another girl comes on, with short pink hair and green eyes.
"Name?" Tenten asked in a mature voice.
The girl answered confidently. "Sakura Haruno."
"Ok, good luck."Hinata replied.
(Nicole Scherzinger – baby love) she started her song and sang quite terribly.
"GAHHH!" Tenten banged her head on their table. "Please stop." She yelled at Sakura.
Sakura looked confused and stopped singing.
Tayuya started drinking her water. "Don't be too mean Ten."
"Tenten stood up. "Well your singing sucked, you need to practice your pitches, wrong song and look at what you're wearing."
Sakura looked down; she thought she looked perfectly fine in her luminous tight pink mini skirt, 7 inch heels and glittery pink tank top. "What about it?"
Tenten sighed and gave her a blank look. "You look like a slut, whose trying so hard she would sleep with anyone to get the part she wanted."
Temari laughed. "Teni be nice."
Ino stood up too. "Sorry Sakura Haruno but you aren't a good singer, please practice a little more and try again for a different audition. " She spoke maturely into her, like a big sister would to her younger siblings.
Sakura gritted her teeth and stomped off the stage and out of the music hall.
Tayuya woke up from the sound of Tenten smacking the table with her hands loudly. "Tch." She mumbled, wiping the sleep from her eyes. "What did I miss?"
Hinata sweat dropped. "You slept through those noises – I mean singing?"
The rest of the gaped, they knew Hinata was hardly mean to anyone without a reason.
"H-Hinata?"Ino stuttered, checking her friend's temperature.
'I'm slightly freaked out.' Temari shivered and drank her water.
The next student got on stage. The boy had his dark brown hair tied up into a spiky ponytail. He wasn't nervous and that's what caught the girls off guard, even the most stuck up people get nervous on stage. He had a beige acoustic guitar strapped to his back; he careful turned it around and held it.
"Name please?" Hinata asked into her microphone cutting off the silence.
"Shikamaru Nara." The boy answered without hesitation.
Tenten grinned, seeing promise in him. "Well do what you can do."
The girls leaned in and watched and he struck a chord and was suddenly singing. (Bruno Mars-Marry Me)
Tayuya, Temari and Hinata all had blushes on their faces, while Ino and Tenten were in a daydream about his singing.
The only word they could call his voice was: heavenly.
He dragged out the last note, but none of the girls realised he stopped, they were in too deep.
"I'm finished now." He said, realising the girl's states.
The girls snapped out of it and acted like it never happened.
Temari stood up. "Shikamaru Nara, you come back here Friday, you have the potential." She hid her blush.
He thanked them and left.
An hour till lunch...
Tenten was fast asleep, and Ino was getting angry from her snoring.
They were on a ten minute break. And they were acting like it was heaven.
"So we only got that Shikamaru guy and that girl on the piano." Tayuya mumbled.
"So far..." Temari replied, making it sound like there was another thousand people to listen to.
"Yeah, seems like forever has pasted though." Tayuya groaned, eating a slice of pizza, but none of the girls knew where she had got it from, or more likely whom.
"Agreed." Ino yawned, trying to open her can of cola.
Hinata just sat there eating her lunch and watched them silently.
"Girls your break is over." Shizune; Kakashi's secretary informed them, and walked away before they could reply.
Getting sighs from all the girls (she woke Tenten up) they followed orders this once, just to get it over with.
They sat through 30 more minutes of terrible singers and bands before a group of boys gathered on stage.
"Hi, please introduce yourselves." Tayuya huffed, not even looking at them.
The one with raven spiky hair spoke first. "I'm Sasuke Uchiha, the leader of this band." He smirked arrogantly as he thought they might fear his heritage. But it didn't work, he growled and continued. He pointed to the blonde. "That's Naruto Uzumaki." The cheery blonde guy grinned. "Sai Aburame, Suigestu Hozuki and Kiba Inuzuka ." he pointed to a short black-haired pale guy, then a boy with white hair with blue streaks, and then a messy haired brunette with triangles on his cheeks.
Tayuya nodded. "Ok well we wish you luck." She faked a smile, but they didn't notice.
The blonde ran over to the drums in excitement, while Suigestu and Kiba both grab bass guitars, Sai grabs an electric lead guitar.
They all got in place and Sasuke took to the microphone.
(All Time Low-Time Bomb)
Hinata sighed. 'I can sense that Sasuke guys arrogance from over here, but despite that why did kami waste a good voice on him?' she glanced at her band; they seem to be in similar thought.
Temari gritted her teeth. 'They are alright but need more practice, which means we might have to help them.'
Tenten smirked, 'It's a perfect way to annoy Kakashi.'
Too tired to even care, Tayuya was falling asleep on the table again.
Ino was just tapping her fingernails on the table, waiting for the time to hurry up.
When the guys finished the girls almost jumped for joy. Not that the boys were horrible, but it just means the time is getting close till their getaway.
The boys coughed when the girls never said anything.
Hinata was about to get up but Tenten got up. "You pass, be here on Friday."
"What time?" The blonde Naruto asked.
"Your teachers will tell you." Temari answered calmly.
The boys nodded and walked away.
"10 more minutes and like two more acts or one if we're lucky." Ino cheered
Another boy group got on stage, nervous radiating from then.
"It's okay; we won't bite so you can calm down." Tayuya winked at them as she stifled a yawn right after.
"Yeah she's right, take some deep breaths and take your time." Hinata chuckled, hoping they will be ages so they can leave right after.
A few moments later the boys took to their instruments. Before the girls could even ask them for their names the guys started to play. (I Don't Care-Fallout Boy)
The girls gaped and silently watched them.
Ino's mouth was agape and she coughed to recompose herself. "T-that was good, you should come back on Friday. Your teacher will call you back here when we're ready."
Tenten stood up. "You have to tell us your names first."
The pink haired boy in the group stood forward. "Oh, well i am Natsu," he points to the orange haired one that Ino saw earlier, "that's Loki". Then to two blue haired boys, "Gray," he has dark blue hair, "Jellal," he has a lighter shade of blue hair. Then at last he pointed to the black haired boy keeping his head down, "and that's Zeref."
Temari nodded. "Well you guys were great so work on the confidence, ok?"
The group nodded and grinned.
Tayuya snapped her fingers. "Now get out of here!"
Ino sweat dropped but laughed when the guys scrambled out of the room faster than lightening.
"Now you realise we can go out right?" Hinata smirked at her statue friends, while she began walking out.
Tenten and Tayuya raced to the door, while Ino strolled and Temari strutted.
Hinata sighed, these were her friends.
