First Task
Within the hour everyone except for Neji and Tenten were sleeping. Each on their 'side' of the bed, they made sure that they weren't even remotely close to each-other.
"I'm cold." Tenten complained. A heap of covers went flying in her face.
"Thanks." she said, her voice muffled by the covers.
"Hn." Neji replied tiredly. A minute or so went by.
"Why did those two air-heads have to take the bed next to the heater?" Tenten angrily complained, still shivering althoguh she was practically cocooned in the blankets.
"You are still cold." Neji asked, or more of stated.
"Um...n-not really." Tenten replied, her teeth chattering a little bit.
"You're a bad liar." Neji said as he rolled over, facing her back.
"N-no I'm n-" she was cut off when she felt something warm hug her from behind.
"Sleep." Neji commanded. Tenten never took orders from anyone and was about to retort but sleep deprivation soon overcame her.
"Aw...they're so cute!" Ino whispered as she hovered over Neji and Tentens' bed.
"Who has a camera?" Sakura asked exitedly..
"I-I do." Hinata spoke up. Then a flash. Tenten opened her eyes and everyone was blurry, she saw the faces of a bunch of people hovered over her. She squeezed her eyes shut and opened them again, her vision focusing again. She looked around and tried to sit up but an arm was preventing her from moving, she elbowed Neji and moved his arm.
"Hello starshine! The Earth says hello!" Sakura exclaimed as Neji unpleasantly woke up.
"What. The. Hell?" Tenten asked irately.
"Go away. We're tired." Neji added.
"Well sorry princess but you guys are already late." Temari said, giving a smug grin.
"What do you mean 'we're already late'?" Tenten demanded, sitting up.
"It's about seven right now. We have to meet Tsunade in...five minutes." Sakura explained.
"Shit!" Tenten groaned, making her way to the bathroom while picking up random articles of clothing from her suitcase. Neji rubbed his eyes and climbed out of bed, fishing a pair of jeans and a t-shirt from his suitcase. When he and Tenten had finished changing everyone walked to the dining room where Shizune brightly stood.
"Hello, trainees! Did you have a nice night?" she asked. Everyones' eyes darted to Tenten and Neji, whom were oblivious to the many stares.
"So, for the first day we will set the models with their photographers...okay...um first is Kiba Inuzuka and Hinata Hyuga. Ino Yamanaka and Chouji Akamichi. Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno. Neji Hyuga and Tenten. And finally, Temari no Sabaku and Shikamaru Nara." She finished, inhaling a deep breath.
"Now, here are your assignments for today..." she began, handing out a folder to every pair.
"You will be modeling in the attire that you are wearing right now, to get a sense of each of your personalities. It's more of a freestyle for both the model and the photographer. You will be given until tonight to present your photos and you will have as much film as needed. You all should eat up and at ten you may begin. The schedule and the location and all that information is in the folder ." she finished brightly, making her way back to Tsunade's office.
They all shuffled into the kitchen; Hinata started a large batch of coffee, Kiba got out the mugs, Temari cracked eggs for scrambled eggs, Shikamaru poured them into the pan, Sakura started toasting toast, Sasuke began buttering the already toasted toast, Tenten put frozen sausages into the microwave, Neji got out the plates, Chouji got out the condiments, and Ino set the table. If a stranger were to look into the kitchen they would think that they had been doing it for years, it was if they were in sync.
