"You know, I don't really mind this too much," said Kiba ass he and Shino lay on the grass with their hands behind their heads in the field, resting after training a bit, "It's not too bad being a girl. I almost don't even want to change back."

Shino nodded but didn't say anything. But she agreed. Recently, this wave of acceptance had enveloped her in the most recent times. It's been already almost a month since the change. Most gender bugs had faded this past week and a calm had spread through Konoha. Many were assimilating to life being the opposite gender. Kiba's face suddenly scrunched up in disgust.

"What the hell am I saying?!" she yelled out, sitting up, "I want my dick back already." She took a few angry breaths then laid back down. Suddenly, she started feeling happy and calm once again. "You know…then again…"

Shino sighed. Kiba was acting pretty bipolar. But sadly, it wasn't only her. Although the gender bug had faded, their troubles seemed to not be over. Many people had started feeling as if they really are the gender they had become. Some wondered how they even lived as the opposite gender before the change. It was pandemonium without the freaking out part. Well, there was some freaking out. At the times the sudden acceptance wavered, they'd get angry and irritated, wishing to change back already, bitter at anyone who dared cross their path. Welcome to Konoha, the home of the calm and the bitter.

"Good morning Kiba-kun, Shino-kun" said a deep baritone voice. The two girls turned around to see Hinata standing over them in a shy position. They stood up and greeted him. He laughed lightly, looking down at them. They were still not used to how much taller Hinata was than Kiba and Shino. He towered over them, almost a head and a half taller. It had struck them as funny right from the beginning since he was always very petit as a girl.

"What's up?" asked Shino, adjusting her sunglasses. Hinata had a meaningful expression on his face so she could tell he was here for more than a mere hello.

"Tsunade-sama wants to see us right now," he said. "Let's go?"

The two girls followed the male through the village. If one visited Konoha for the first time today, they'd say it looked like any normal village. Everything did seem normal. People ran their shops, chased children down the streets, just a normal day in Konoha to an outsider. Only those inside knew just how backwards it was. They passed Shikaku and her son…daughter, Shikamaru as they went. They could over hear them complaining about how men are so inconsiderate. Kiba couldn't help but laugh. This gender swap may be troublesome but it was sure entertaining.

They neared the Hokage's building and went inside. They passed Shizune but before they could greet her, she turned and ran off. They shrugged it off, thinking she must be busy with something, and continued on. Meanwhile, Shizune turned the corner and after checking it was empty, stopped to take a breath.


Damn. This is much harder than I expected, she thought with a scowl on her face. Once again looking around, she ran down the hall towards the open back window and hopped out. She ran towards the forest and hid behind a large tree. All of the sudden, Shizune's face started to blur and reform. The figure pulled off Shizune's clothing, revealing their own all-black gear.

"Well?" asked a second figure who appeared in front of the first.

"This is not what I expected. Keeping my cover's been hard. Don't worry, I'm didn't blow it, we're good. But damn, there are so many annoying kids that keep bothering her. I just want to crush their little necks," they said, using his hands to display exactly how he'd go upon that.

"Well don't. Not yet at least," the second ninja said, giving a knowing evil grin.

The first one caught on and flashed an identical smile. "Time for phase two," they said.

The second figure nodded and shot off back toward the village.

Kiba, Hinata, and Shino trekked down the hall and reached Tsunade's office. Shino knocked lightly and the three of them waited to be called in. The door opened and they stepped inside.

"You called for us?" asked Shino in a serious tone. She really hoped he had a mission for them. Since the gender swap, many missions that weren't too severe were declined. They had to focus more on fixing the problem. From the look of it, jutsus weren't affected or harmed by the switch but again, that was from the look of it. Tsunade feared the chance that there would be a negative impact which would lead to mission failures or even death.

"Yes," said the Hokage plainly, organizing a stack of papers, "I need your help."

"A mission?" asked Kiba, as hopeful, if not more, as Shino.

"No. We got a letter from the Sand saying they have sent another from their village to research the problem. They mentioned that she had a very strong point in transformation jutsus and genjutsu. I'd like you to show her around the village."

"Will do," the three said in unison.

"Send her in." yelled Tsunade and the door opened.

A girl of their age entered the room. She had long auburn hair flowing freely down her back. The sand symbol shined brightly around her waist. She wore her forehead protector just like Rock Lee. Her outfit consisted of tans and browns and light purples. Overall, she seemed like a kind girl.

"Hiya!" she said, smiling as the noticed the others. She bowed and introduced herself. "I'm Chiaki of the Watanabe clan. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!" (A/N: Yoroshiku onegaishimasu, for anyone who doesn't know, is a Japanese phrase one often says after meeting others that means something along the lines of "please be kind to me" or "please take care of me")

The three Konoha ninjas bowed and introduced themselves as well.

"So let's go? I wanna see Konoha!" she said, her smile growing wider. They couldn't help but compare her enthusiasm to Naruto's. The two would probably get along well. Overall, Chiaki seemed like she would get along with everyone.

The three, followed by Chiaki, bowed goodbye to Tsunade and left the room, going back to the village.

"Have you seen Gaara or the others yet?" asked Kiba. As Chiaki was also from the sand, she was probably sent as back up for the sand siblings. It'd be good to inform them of her assistance.

"No, but it's fine. They know of my coming here. I wouldn't want to intrude on them at this time," she said casually as they walked. Hinata felt a twinge of forcefulness in Chiaki's tone when she said that. Did she not want to see the sand siblings for some reason? He pushed the thought away. Why wouldn't Chiaki want to see them? He was just being paranoid.
