-Recap-
I turned around and a person with a mask held my neck tightly. "Wh-who are y-you?!" I choked.
"Tenten."
My eyes widened. I know that voice…

"M-master….."
-End of Recap-
"W-what're you doing here?!" I demanded.
"Tenten… I summon you… be my agent again… and I'll spare the lives of your friends…"
I was in total shock. "What do you mean?!"
He laughed. It sounded like thunder. The hair at the back of my neck stood. "They're the only ones you have, right? Remember…. you are in debt with me…. You only have two choices. Pay me by serving me again, or pay me with their lives. The first one is the better choice, right?" he laughed again.
"I'll see you again in two days, Neko*." and then he poofed.
I held my neck as I headed for the bathroom. I saw red marks on my neck. I slapped myself. "Ow!" It's real. It was all real. Not just a nightmare.
What the hell am I going to do now? I don't want to be his agent again. I don't want my friends killed. Isn't there any other choice?! Remember…. you are in debt with me…. Ugh! WHAT WILL I DO??!!
-No POV-
The sound of metals clanking filled the training grounds. Tenten keeps on attacking unconsciously while on a daze. She misses her target. On the other hand, her partner, Neji, keeps blocking her attacks. His eyes didn't miss her unusual behavior.
Neji stopped and then ran full speed at Tenten. He locked her hands behind her back and threw her to the ground.
"Hey! What was that for?!" Tenten screamed.
"Hn. You are not focusing. Anything bothers you?" Neji asked.
"Oh. Nothing. Let's continue."
"No."
"What?! Why not??"
"We can't continue training if you're spacing out."
"I promise I'll focus now!"
"No."
"Please?"
"I said no."
"Please Neji?"
"NO. Hn."
"Damn.."
"Hungry?"
"No."
"You look hungry."
"No, I'm not, Neji."
-Tenten's POV-
As if on cue, my stomach grumbled. Oh, damn.. I can feel my face heating up. Neji smirked.
"See? You are. There's no denying now."
"Okay! Yes! I AM hungry! I didn't eat lunch!" I sighed in frustration. He chuckled.
"Let's go."
"Fine."
I stomped my feet as we walked to Ichiraku Ramen. Guess who we saw there?

Oh, none other than UZUMAKI NARUTO! Is that a surprise? A total NO.
And then he saw us.
"OI! Panda-chan! Neji!"
What. The. Hell. HE CALLED ME PANDA-CHAN?????!!!!!!!!!!
"NARUUUTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I ran up to him and kicked him hard. He yelped in pain.
"Hey! Panda-chan! Why did you do that?"
"Stop calling me PANDA-CHAN! My name is TENTEN, Naruto!"
"Okay, okay! Keep your cool! Jeez…" He went back to his seat.
Neji sat beside him, and I sat beside Neji.
"Hey, Neji," I whispered, "how many bowls did Naruto already eat?"
"Why ask me?"
"Hmpf! Hey, Naruto!"
"Yes, Tenten?"
"Is that your 3rd bowl of ramen?"
"No, it's my 7th."
Wow. Neji and I sweat dropped. Our food came. We ate it fast then left Naruto there, STILL eating.
-Neji's POV-
"Goodnight, Neji."
"Hn."
My eyes traveled to her neck. Red marks.
"Tenten."
"Hm?"
"What are those?"
"What?"
"Red marks. Your neck."
"Oh. This?" She laughed sheepishly. "I scratched it earlier. Itchy. So it left marks."
"Hn."
"Bye."
I nodded.
-Tenten's POV-
Whew! I thought I was going to get caught!
I entered my house and felt Neji's eyes tearing at my back.
I closed the door. I felt his presence. Then from the far corner, I heard a low, dark chuckle.
And then he disappeared.
My, oh my, Tenten. What's gonna happen? We'll see in chapter 3!
Please review! Remember, constructive criticism is accepted!
