Chapter 2: White eyes and the mission.
My POV(once again xD)
Neji sat on the upper branches of a tree that grew along the trail leading to Konoha. As he sat there, hidden, waiting. Like a predator waiting for its prey to be tricked out of hiding. He couldn't help but recall what happened earlier.

Yuri sighed, "What I want you to do is to first listen to what I have to say. As you can see, I am getting old and no longer able to do things myself. That goes for most of the men in my clan."
Neji did nothing but nod his head. Yuri started up again, "long ago, one of the women in my clan had given birth to a child. You may not be understanding why I'm telling you this." For anybody else, they wouldn't but Neji wasn't anybody else. He was the Hyuuga prodigy and he knew that what he was saying would have something to do with what they were telling him to do.
"But you see, this was no ordinary child." Neji nodded his head, he expected for Takahashi san to say as such. "This child was the one the gods had chosen. To receive such powers, when used, it could take down both the Hyuuga and Uchiha clan."
Here Yuri stopped to take a look at both Hyuugas. They hadn't flinched at all, he wasn't even sure if they had even blinked! He continued on.
"We had great expectations for this child like any other clan would. But as word spread throughout the countries, we were presented with a problem. They wanted the child. Which meant we had to be careful or one simple mistake meant losing the child."
Yuri stopped once again, swaying his head back and forth. Neji started to conclude that something bad had happened.
"But one day, the child and her mother was out in the garden. Nothing would happen they said. Well they were wrong. Just a simple stroll led to an unexpected ambush. Seeing the mother didn't hone any skill to help her defend herself, she was easily knocked out. And the child was gone just like that."
Neji didn't understand one thing, why would they leave the mother and her child alone when they knew that it was dangerous. And it's a girl? That made the job easier but more difficult. As if Yuri could read minds, "the mother had slipped away into the gardens without anyone's knowing."
Here Hiashi came in, "Takahashi san wants for you to get the girl back." Neji didn't reply but nod his head. "By now she should be," Yuri stopped to count on his fingers(A/N this is a very effective move xD), "she should be eighteen right now."
"The people who had taken her from us is the royal Feng family. You won't be sneaking into their palace. The Wu Long Empire and Konoha are having a celebration. Whereas the girl will be traveling to Konoha. She will be vulnerable during the journey. Not only do I want you to bring her back but...kill the hokage of Konoha."
Neji nodded his head(A/N he does that a lot huh?) and replied with a mere 'hn'. Yuri handed Neji a picture of the girl he was supposed to get.
Neji couldn't deny that she was indeed pretty but no matter he didn't let a pretty girl interfere with this work.
As Neji stood up and walked towards the door, he paused right in front of the door. Barely an inch away from it, he asked, "What's her name?"
"Feng Tian"

Tenten looked out the window, sighing, she looked back at her ladies in waiting. One was sewing something, as well as talking to the other two. They were probably gossiping by the way they were giggling.
How she hated this. She wanted to hurry up and get there, she was ecstatic about coming. She had heard so many exciting things, and not only that but there were weapon shops there too! Although they, her ladies in waiting, had thought they got rid of her attraction to them, they hadn't.
She absolutely couldn't deny not liking them, she loved them so much. Her mother had been the reason she liked them so much. Her mother had also loved weapons, and used them very often.
She started feeling tears swell up in her eyes. Her mother's death was a tragic one. She was little and didn't remember much about her but she still felt sad. What if her mother was still alive? They would have the most fun ever.
She started daydreaming off when all of a sudden the carriage stopped. She looked around alarmed, she turned towards her ladies in waiting. They looked confused, why did they stop?
"Stay here Tian hime, we will check it out." Tenten could only nod, not sure what had happened. Only knowing that something bad was going to happen.
As her ladies in waiting walked out, one after another, she quickly shut all the windows and sat there. It was so quiet, it scared her. 'Maybe it's nothing..' Tenten thought, trying to comfort herself. She stopped, and then removed her mask of fright, replacing it with a face of assurance and a person who wasn't scared.
But really, she was scared like she was about to face the devil. All of a sudden, the carriage started to move a bit, she started to prepare for what might happen. She froze and it seemed like time had done so too.
Tenten was straining her hearing at an attempt to figure what was coming. But then, the door had opened. This was it. She snapped her head towards the door and preparing for whatever will come next.
