A young girl that had just turned sixteen that morning was making her way towards the Konoha gates. You can guess who it is. Her long brown hair had grown to reach her butt. She kept all of it down, except for two short chunks on each side that she kept into buns.
She wore a dark blue shirt that had a long V-neck. It showed her cleavage just a little. She wore a dark blue skirt over black tights. Her shoes were regular, and her village head band hung around her waist. It no longer showed the Leaf Village symbol. Instead, it held the image of a single knot of barbed wire that was wrapped around two curving wires.
She was stronger, much stronger. She had surpassed all the kunoichis in the Village of Weapons. The Village of Weapons was one of the least known places in the world. Only Tsunade-sama and the one's that lived there new about it.
The two guards at the gate stared at her. "Hault", they ordered. Tenten did as she was told. "Identify yourself", they stated. Tenten looked at both of the nin. Then, she realized something. The guards were none other than Chouji and Shikamaru. "You mean you guys don't recognize me?", she asked the other sixteen year olds.
The guards looked at her in disbelief. "Tenten?!?!", they asked in unison. "I knew you'd catch on.", Tenten said. They caught her in a huge hug, then let go. "Wow!", said Shikamaru. You've turned out really beautiful.", said the two. "I'm glad you two have finally gotten up the nerves to tell girls that.", said Tenten.
"Lady Tsunade is probably waiting for you in her office.", said Chouji. "Right", Tenten agreed. She headed towards the woman's office. "Oh! Don't tell anyone I'm here yet!", said Tenten. "They probably already know you're coming .", said Shikamaru. When she was gone, the two traded shifts with other nin and headed off to a secret event.
Tenten walked through Konoha, on her way to Tsunade's office. No one seemed to notice that she was Tenten. She was confused why she didn't see any of her old friends.

Tsunade heard a knock on her office door. She already knew exactly who it was. She had been waiting for three whole years. "Come in.", she told them. Tenten then walked through the door, smiling as Tsunade-sama watched her.
"Hello.", she calmly said. "I'm glad you remembered to return.", stated Tsunade. "I hope you are as strong as Koneko has told me. I made sure no one moved into your home, so you may go back whenever you like." "I missed you too, Tsunade.", Tenten said, sarcastically. She headed off to her home.
When she arrived, she found the door already unlocked. Tenten marched through her home, even without the lights on. Then, all of the sudden, the lights switched on. Only one word escaped the lips of her home's intruders.
"Surprise!"...
