Okay, fifth chapter! And, it's Layla's turn!
Layla: Okay, Gemina does not own Neji, Tenten, Lee, Warren, Will, Zach, Magenta, Ethan, or me. We all belong to Kishimoto and Disney, respectively. She does own a plant named Dork, though.
Wow...You should do this every time!
Layla: But that would be unfair to the others.
If you'll excuse me, I'm going to go bang my head on my desk...


Tenten hurried to her next class, Lee running ahead of her, and Neji walking behind her. Those two were polar opposites.

She hoped class wouldn't be too hard, after all, she hardly knew anything about superheroes. They wouldn't call on her unless she raised her hand though, right?

She quickly found the door numbered 6B, and called Lee back. " Lee, you should pay more attention"
"Sorry Tenten, to punish myself, I will run six hundred laps around the school!"

Tenten shook her head. " There isn't time for that, Lee." They all quickly walked in and found their desks.

Their teacher came up through the floor. " Good Morning, class." He said, giving them all a wide smile.

" Good morning Mr. Smith!" resounded the reply.

" Okay, today, since we have guests from Japan, we will be studying heroes from Japan."

Tenten inwardly groaned. And Lee outwardly groaned. Loudly. Tenten quickly elbowed him in the ribs.

A couple of people, including the teacher, gave them strange looks.

Tenten laughed nervously. " Lee doesn't like history."

The teacher coughed and continued. " Let's start with Sunfire." He paused to open a thick book. " Sunfire was first an X-men, one of the first Japanese superheroes here in the U.S. Yes, Warren?"

Warren lowered his hand and cleared his throat to speak. " Who were some of the other first Japanese superheroes?" Warren said this in a tone that indicated he already knew the answer but wanted to hear the teacher say it.

The teacher coughed again. " We're focusing on Sunfire right now..." He began uncomfortably. Warren rolled his eyes, but he didn't make any more comments.

The teacher continued. " He had fire powers, the generation and manipulation of it. He eventually quit the X-men, as he was frustrated by the way Professor Xavier handled things. Yes, Neji?"

Tenten snapped her head over to look at Neji, and sure enough, he was just lowering his hand. " Wouldn't the first Japanese superhero have worked in Japan?"

The teacher shook his head. " The Japanese had a different way of handling super villain threats, ninjas. Some say the people with superpowers wanted to be absolutely sure their identities wouldn't be discovered. Others say they were founded by the government. Either way, when Japanese superheroes finally started showing up in Japan, they disapeared without a trace. "

Neji, Tenten and Lee looked at each other, and tried not to laugh, though it wasn't noticeable with Neji. That was right. There was a reason the ninjas called their villages hidden. They were very well hidden, and anyone searching for them would never find them. Not even with high tech equipment.

" He had a sister who was also a superhero with firepowers, codenamed Sunpyre, yes, Talia"
A girl with ice blue clothes and black hair lowered her hand. " Weren't we supposed to give our reports today, Mr. Smith?" The teacher hit his forehead as the rest of the students groaned. " That's right! I suppose that's enough on Japanese superheroes for today. Talia, you may go first."

Talia smirked while the rest of the students glared at her. She walked up to the front of the classroom.
She cleared her throat.

"My report is on telepaths, and how they work."

It was certainly a long class after that.

Later, at lunch, Tenten and Lee enthusiasticly dragged Neji over to Will's table. When Neji sat down, Layla moved to the far side of the table, as far away as she could possibly be.

" Hi, guys!" Tenten said cheerfully. Everyone else greeted her back, at varying degrees of friendliness. " Yosh! Class today was so youthful!" Lee exclaimed.

Maj raised her eyebrows. " What was it about?"

Lee gave her a sparkling grin. " The first Japanese superhero! He sounded so youthful!"

Warren snorted.

Layla piped up. " I'm helping with a fundraiser to help save the rainforest, would anyone like to volunteer?"

Will nodded. " Sure."

" If Maj will go..." Started Zach.

" Why not. " Said Maj with a shrug.

"I'm in!" exclaimed Zach.

Ethan nodded.

They all turned and looked at Warren. " No."

"I will!" Volunteered Lee youthfully.

Tenten smiled. " I'd like to as well."

Neji frowned. " Too bad. We have things to do. Remember?"

" C'mon Warren! Everyone but you and Neji wants to go." Layla pleaded.

Everyone at the table except Neji stared at Warren in a convincing manner.

" Fine." Warren said.

Tenten grinned sweetly at Neji. " Well, I don't remember having any other obligations, do you Lee?"

Lee shook his head seriously. " No I do not!"

" To the fundraiser we go, Neji!" Tenten exclaimed.

This was going terribly, and it could only end terribly...


Good? Yes, no, maybe so? Don't forget to review!
