Mischievous Princesses

Chapter 29

(A/N: Thank you for reviews! I am pumped up and ready to type the story once more!!! LET ME GET A WHOOP WHOOP!!! Haha. Anyway, here's chapter 29!)

Playback:

"What are we waiting for then?" Neji dashed to the beginning of the maze.

"Hey, wait for me!!" Kiba followed Neji into the maze.

A shadow walked to the beginning of the maze.

"Since I have the map, I will get the treasure and wish for my revenge!!" the shadow laughed.

Plalyback end

--------------------------

Where Kiba was...

"What?! Another dead end?! At this rate, I won't get the treasure and Neji will get it. Huh?" Kiba turned around because he heard something.

"I thought I saw a shadow..." Kiba thought.

"You have keen eyes, ninja. Better than I expected..."

"Who are you?! You aren't Neji so who?!"

"Seems like you have better brainpower than I expected too..."

"What you say?!"

"Just to make things simple, I am here to get the treasure at the end of this maze, but there are obstacles."

"Obstacles? You mean Neji and me? Show yourself!"

"You are quite smart despite your looks."

"Show yourself you coward!!"

"The true coward is the person who accuses for someone to be a coward."

"Why you-AUGH!!!" Kiba got slashed in the arm unexpectedly.

"But it seems like you are all talk and no action. Don't bore me in this battle."

Kiba stood silently, hearing the atmosphere around him. Nothing, he thought. He then sniffed the air for any strange odors.

"!! THERE!!" Kiba jumped over a bush to find a man wearing black everywhere. He had a mask on that didn't cover his eyes.

"So you are from the family of the dogs huh? Sniffing like that."

"Yes! Inuzuka! Inuzuka Kiba! Remember that name when I kick your butt!" Kiba took out a kunai and threw it at his arm. The man dodged it easily, but then ten other kunais came coming towards him. He dodged nine, but one slashed his mask and that piece of cloth that was covering his mouth swung down.

"What?! You're-"

--------------------------

Where Neji was...

"I haven't been hitting any dead ends in awhile, maybe I am near."

"I will not let you get the treasure!!!"

"Kiba?! No..then who is it?!"

"It's best if you didn't know my identity."

"Then I'll just find you and find out your identity. BYAKUGAN!!"

Neji searched around the maze. "Dang...there is too many chakra everywhere...I can't find him..."

"Byakugan? So you're from the Hyuuga family...interesting. Let's test your skill." Then, the man appeared. He was dressed the same as the other man.

"Heh, hiding your identity under a piece of cloth. How pitiful."

"Pitiful indeed, but it's enough for you not to notice who I am!"

"Why you-"

"Ah ah ah! 12 year olds shouldn't cuss."

"Shut up!" Neji looked deeper. Then he took out a shuriken and threw it to him.

"Too slow! Wait, where'd he go?"

"Behind you!!" Neji kicked the man's side and took a kunai out at slashed the mask off. The man turned around.

"You! You're-"

--------------------------

Dining room...

"AHHH!! Morning, Hinata." Sakura yawned.

"Sleepy as usual, eh?" Hinata laughed.

"Uh huh. Where's Neji and Kiba? I thought girls take a long time to dress."

"Yeah, didn't you ask Samu to wake them up?"

"Mmhmm. Where is Samu? SAMU!!!"

"Yes, your highness?" Samu appeared all of a sudden.

"SO FAST.." Hinata gasped.

"Where's Neji and Kiba?" Sakura asked.

"I thought they were already in the Dining room because I didn't see them in their rooms."

"WHAT?!" Sakura yelled.

"Hmm? They're not here? Oh dear..." Samu walked away.

"Where could they be?" Hinata asked.

"I don't know. Garden, perhaps?" Sakura suggested.

"Yeah, let's try there."
--------------------------

Where Kiba was...

"...Takato!!!"

"Damn...you found out my identity."

"No one could've find out your identity because before you were a total sissy, fainting when Hinata was doing push ups."

"Sh-shut up!"

"Why should I?"

"Because I am older than you!"

"How old are you?!"

"21!"

"EWWWWW!! You're a pedofile!!!"

"Shut up, fool!!!"

"Make me." Kiba stuck out his tounge.

"Rgh!!! Let's see what you say when I rip your tounge out!!!"

"Nothing, because I can't talk without my tounge."

"...!!! STOP MAKING A FOOL OUT OF ME!!!"

"I'm not. I'm just pointing out the obvious."

"THAT IS NOT THE OBVIOUS!!" Takato started charging towards Kiba.

"Good. Now that he's angry, he'll make careless movements. This is an easy win!!!" Kiba thought.

--------------------------

Where Neji was...

"Ishida...!" Neji proclaimed.

"Yes, thank you thank you. No need for autographs..."

"I didn't want one...and I never will."

"Don't worry, you will be my servant wanting to kiss my feet when I get that treasure!!"

"Heh? What would you want to wish for? To become the frog prince? That title is perfect for you."

"NO! Why would I tell YOU?" Ishida asked.

"You just probably got a girly wish like 'I wish he would like me' and I did mean the he and you don't want to tell anyone about it."

"Are you saying I am gay? The Ishida? Gay?"

"Yeah. And are you trying to call yourself Ishida Mitsunari so you could call yourself a THE?" (A/N: Ishida Mitsunari is a stratigest that served under Toyotomi Hideyoshi at the Sengoku Period.)

"No...but now that I think about it...I do look as good as Ishida Mitsunari." Ishida smiled.

"Uh no. I definitely know that for one, Ishida Mitsunari isn't a queer, for two, Ishida Mitsunari isn't a ninja, and for three, Ishida Mitsunari isn't a narcissist for all I know."

"How you know?"

"Because I am more intellegent than you, NO DUH!"

"You do know that I am older than you right?"

"What about your age? Age doesn't matter about intellegence."

"So now you are just talking so smart hm?"

"Yes."

"..."

"You know, talking to an enemy might get you and your enemy connected in any way." Neji started.

"EWW!! THAT IS SO SICK!! I AM GOING TO FIGHT TO NOW!!!" Ishida started to run to Neji.

"I don't know what's so disgusting of it but he's distracted now, so I have a good percent of winning!" Neji smirked.

--------------------------

After Kiba fought Takato...

"Moron, you can't fight against me fairly until a few more years." Takato scoffed.

"This guy's strong..." Kiba coughed out blood. "...but I won't give up!" Kiba started to get up...very slowly.

"So you thing you can still fight? Even if you aren't dead yet, we still know who is better. I've been only using ninjutsu and genjutsu...so now I will show you my true power...TAIJUTSU!"

Takato sprinted around Kiba until he couldn't be seen.

"Damn..where'd he go?"

"Behind you." Kiba turned around. Takato wasn't there. Then Takato appeared behind Kiba and kicked his spine so hard that it almost sounded like it was broken.

"AGH!!!!"

"Well now..since we are finished, I shall go to the end of the maze! Have a nice afterlife!" Takato swiftly jumped out of Kiba's sight.

"I couldn't beat him...Hinata...this guy's too strong...I cant make your wish come true..." Kiba then closed his eyes.

--------------------------

After Neji fought Ishida...

"AUGH!!!" Neji fell down.

"You're pretty persistent. And you picked up a good fight. That's what a true ninja needs, but you lack strength!"

"You're...the..one...to...talk...you...were...just...lucky..."

"Let's continue fighting then, shall we? This is my best move..." Ishida did some hand motions and his hand made a shape of a big ball. "Soshi youn no tama no jutsu!!" (A/N:Love making jutsus up. This one means jutsu of ball of four elements.) Then a big, colorful ball came up and the Ishida threw it to Neji like a football.

"Take this, ninja!!" Ishida yelled. The ball went through Neji's chest and created a colorful light.

"AGH!!!" Blood splattered everywhere.

"Now you have no complaints right? We now know who's stronger. Now I shall be the person who completes this maze! Hope you have fun dying!" With that, Ishida jumped away.

"Sakura...your...wish...I'm...sorry..." Neji then fell down and shuted his eyes.

--------------------------

Sakura's room...

"Where could those two have gone??! It's been two hours since breakfast!!!" Sakura growled.

"Hmm..." Hinata thought for awhile.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I'm just thinking...if they missed us so much, then why would they disappear today?"

"That's what I was thinking too!"

"Uh...no."

"Huh, you say something?"

"You must be hearing things."

"Well, could it have been something we said that could make them go somewhere?"

"You're right about that." Almost too suddenly, a big gust of wind blew in Sakura's room. "Close the windows, Sakura!!!"

"I'm on it!" Sakura ran to the window and shuted it tightly.

"The wind is really strong today. Yesterday, there was no wind at all..."

"...could they have gone to the Maze of Roses and Thorns?"

"Why?"

"I don't know..but it was just a guess."

"Maybe...but that place is too dangerous for someone to just 'look for someone' in there. If we don't find the treasure before the sun sets, then who knows what happens to us?!"

"Like you have any better ideas. I'm going to check there."

"But-"

"If you love Kiba, then you would go anywhere to look for him."

"I guess so. But what if-"

"NO more doubts. Let's just go there and see what happens."

"...okay. Let's go." Sakura opened the window again and jumped out more professionally than the last time she tried to jump out of a window. Hinata followed and jumped out too.

(A/N: YAY! ANOTHER ONE FINISHED!! HAPPY HAPPY DAYS!!! Please review!!)
