Recap:

I felt the plane start to move and looked out the window.

Goodbye Konoha.

Goodbye KMS (Konoha Middle School).

The plane started to pick up speed.

Goodbye Mom.

Goodbye Dad.

Goodbye old life.

Goodbye home.

I felt the plane lift off the runway.

Goodbye Sasuke…

Chapter 6: Welcome to Suna

Tenten's P.O.V.

Finally! I quickly grabbed my stuff and got out of the stupid airplane as fast as possible. I may be a tough chick, but airplanes just kill me. I'm not scared of heights or anything, but there is always some uber fat guy or a little puking brat to sit next to.

On the ride back we better get first class!

Hmmm… the ride back. That's in three years from now. That's three years away from Neji. I guess being away from that guy will do me good. I might actually move on. I hope one of these days I won't think of him.

I was interrupted from my thoughts by Hina's and Ino's screaming, "Here we are Suna, Fatal Attraction has arrived!" It's still weird not hearing Hinata stutter at all, but at least something good came out from our break ups.

"Settle down girls" Tsunade started "No need to get yourselves known that fast. We have a lot of time on our hands."

"I'm with Tsunade on this one." I said agreeing with Tsunade. Hina and Ino just rubbed the back of their heads sheepishly.

"I guess we got a little too excited." Ino exclaimed.

"Well I'm off! I'm gonna meet up with you girls later. I already found a place to rent out so I'm just gonna go explore Suna." Tsunade said walking out the airport.

"Anyone need to go to the baggage claim?" asked Sakura. I looked down at the small suitcase carry on I brought. I looked at Ino and Hina and then Saku. We all shook our heads no. I guess I wasn't the only one who packed lightly.

"We need to go hunt for a place to stay at, so we don't blow off all the money we have on hotels." Saku announced, then added in an annoyed voice, "It's likely Tsunade is just looking for a bar so she won't be of any help."

"Well it's already lunch and I'm starving. Let's catch a bus and find a place to eat." I quickly suggested. That's another thing I hate about airplanes. The food they serve is shit.

"Yeah I'm with Tenny. Plane food sucks." Saku agreed.

And we all quickly took off. They had a good transportation system. We caught a bus right as we got out of the airport. On the ride we just looked out the windows. This place was so different from Konoha. First of all it was really hot and sandy here whereas Konoha was warm and green filled with plants and stuff. I think Saku now can officially read minds cus she started talking about Suna and comparing it to Konoha. I wasn't really tuning her out, but I still wasn't catching everything she said. Apparently this place is a desert. It's totally different than Konoha, but I think that's what the girls and I need. We all decided to get off the bus and walk our way around this city. For a desert this place was really beautiful. It may not have the natural green, earthy look like Konoha, but the limited vegetation and sandy roads gave this place its own elegance. No wonder this place is a popular city like Konoha.

"Hey girls, check it out. It's a shopping district!" Ino pointed out.

"Ino just got here. We're not gonna waste the money we have on shopping!" Sakura yelled.

"Well I know that dummy. Sheesh! I'm not always about shopping. I know when cut back during certain situations. Anyways shopping districts always have restaurants. You know, like food courts in malls." Ino explained.

"Dude, let's just go get some food before my stomach eats itself." I moaned.

"Way ahead of you!" Hinata yelled as she walked into a place called Suna BBQ.

We decided to eat out since it was such a nice day. The dude taking our order gave us a weird look, but then again I guess he's never come across four starving girls ordering almost everything on the menu.

"ITADAKIMASU!" we said quickly.

I don't care if I looked like a carnivorous monster devouring her meat, cus that food was absolutely delicious. We barely talked to each other since we were practically inhaling our food. Half an hour later we paid our bill.

"Crap! That meal was almost three hundred dollars!" Sakura announced.

"Wait how much money do we have? I well I only got one thousand from my folks." I explained.

"Same here." The blonde responded. Hina and Saku shook their heads in agreement.

"So we have a little over thirty-five hundred. We better find a place soon and at a good price. If Suna is as popular as Konoha then these places must be expensive." Saku explained. Man, I wasn't planning on finding a job that quickly.

I sighed. The rest turned to look at me, "Might as well start scouting this big ass city." I said.

"Hey it won't hurt to take a break for half an hour would it? Cus I'm pretty sure we're all somewhat tired." Hina suggested.

Ino soon joined in, "Yeah, I always get tired after getting off a long plane ride."

"So what do you suggest we do while we take a little break?" I asked.

"How about truth or dare?" Hina innocently suggested.

"Oh getting brave here, are we?" Saku said poking fun at Hina.

"Psh, can't hurt!" our little Hyuuga said simply.

"I'm gonna make you eat those words Hina! True or Dare!" I challenged. She started shifting under my stare. I could tell she really wanted to say truth, but by the way she's been opening up, I wouldn't be surprised if she said dare.

Finally after calming down, she looked dead into my eyes and smirked, "Dare!"

Wow! Our little Hinata is growing up! Okay now to come up with something brilliant. I started looking around and spotted a target for little Hina chan! Man I'm so evil… I kinda like myself right now. I signaled her to get closer to me and whispered what she had to do, or as I would like to call it, her death sentence. Oh yeah I'm awesome.

She just glared at me for a few seconds before slamming her head into the table. The other two freaked out and looked at me.

"What did you tell her to do?" Ino questioned. She was practically her mother in a way. Sakura just looked at her worriedly. Hinata was muttering random stuff. I only caught a few "whys?" and "I'm so stupid". I shivered when I heard her mutter revenge. I'm pretty sure she said that word. Shit! I'm gonna need to watch my back.

"Ok who's the poor sap." She asked finally lifting her head. It was bleeding a little, but I think would just make the whole dare better. I looked at the other two and gave them a look telling them not to tell her. They both started snickering when I pointed at the red head sitting on the edge of the fountain with some blonde chick and a brunette dude.

Ino gave a wolf whistle then said, "Hell! That guy is freakin' hot!" Saku wouldn't stop staring.

Wouldn't you like a piece of that for yourself?

Come on Tens, not now.

You have to admit that boy deserves a two-syllable damn.

Ok I've been hanging out with Ino for too long.

So what now? You're not attracted to guys anymore.

NO! Sure that guy is really hot, but he's not my type.

Oh you mean your type has long brunette hair and opal eyes right?

Stop being a smart ass! That guy is the biggest mistake of my life. I absolutely regret dating him!

Man you really suck at lying. You do realize Neji and you complement each other nicely. You both had your fair share of problems.

Oh yeah name one.

The guy kept to himself a lot and because of you he actually made bonds and friends. You were a pretty lonely girl yourself never feeling like girl and yet he did that for you, didn't he?

. . .

Oh here's another one. Both of you lost your parents even though Neji has his uncle and you have your uncle and aunt. You two shared that with each other.

I… I guess you're right, but Neji probably doesn't feel that way anymore.

How sure are you about that? People make mistakes all the time. Especially guys.

I just giggled at Tens last remark.

The question is if you are willing to give the guy a second chance.

I honestly don't know. I guess it will take some time, but I really think he doesn't want to try for the second chance.

Well if that's how you feel let's drop this subject. Hinata is gonna make a moron out of herself.

Yeah you're right. Why would I ever want to miss this? I looked at Hinata's walking figure nearing the cute red head. Hinata is bound to come up with something absolutely brilliant.

Hinata's P.O.V.

Man Tenny's totally gonna get it! Don't get me wrong I love my girls, but sometimes I really just want to torture them. I hope that doesn't make me a bad person.

My head was killing me, but I still had to do Tenny's stupid dare. I don't remember who said if someone didn't want to do a dare or tell the truth the person would have to flash some old guy, but I really want to hurt that person right now. I bet it was Ino or Tenten, but it also could have been Saku.

Damn the closer I got to this red head the more I noticed how good looking he is. This guy was really cute, looked like a dark person, but really cute. He kinda reminds me of…

Naruto, right? They could be brothers from different mothers or something.

Okay that's a little far-fetched and I wasn't gonna say Naruto. This guy just reminds me of how Naruto was like when we first met. He seemed like a bright kid, but he seemed pretty lonely, just like this red head. Except this red head just looks lonely and the blonde girl and brunette guy seem close to him. Maybe they're really close friends. It seems like they have a tight bond like the girls and I have.

Damn. Getting perceptive here, now aren't we?

Well being the quite one means you just observe what's going on.

Yeah, yeah, I already know, remember I'm your inner, so I usually know this stuff.

So what song should I sing to?

Oh you're gonna sing first?

Stop acting surprised you know what I'm gonna do.

I know, but I still feel like asking. Anyways I think you just figured out. By the way, I hope you survive from this social embarrassment.

I don't! If I don't die from embarrassment just shoot me or something. Kapeesh.

I finally reached the red head and the other two. His friends turned to look at me and then finally he turned his head too to see what they were looking at.

I saw a table about a couple feet away from them and decided I would just do my dare from there. It had to attract attention or as Tenny said it…

Epic.

Gosh I really hate her right now. I wasn't going to start until his eyes were on me.

They're gorgeous! Those teal eyes are just so captivating!

Ok great such cute guy and I'm gonna make a total joke out of myself in front of him.

Well you never know.

Well here goes nothing.

I pointed at him and watched at his eyebrows raise in confusion I'm guessing.

And I started staring into his eyes, "You make me so hot! Make me wanna drop! You're so ridiculous! I can barely stop!" I saw a bunch of people staring. Now I really feel nervous.

Well think of this as practice for the band. You're gonna be singing for crowds sooner or later.

I then continued with this stupid dare, "I can hardly breathe! You make me wanna scream! You're so fabulous! You're so good to me, baby, baby!" I decided to change up the last line to this chorus, "Won't you go out with me!" I said staring dead straight into his eyes.

I know my face was probably redder than a tomato by now. People were cheering and laughing, but it sound more like laughing to me though I did here some encouraging whistling. I could hear the girls laughing their heads off few tables behind me finally deciding to head over here. The blonde and brunette started snickering. They immediately stopped when they caught sight of the redhead chuckling.

"Great job Hina! You did great!" Tenten said congratulating me for my super embarrassing performance. Ino and Sakura put their hands on my shoulders as comfort, but were still giggling.

"Tenny you are a genius!" Ino exclaimed. I just hissed at her and Saku and attempted to bite their hands off my shoulders.

"You're a pretty interesting chick." I totally forgot about the redhead and his friends. I quickly turned my heads toward them and started rubbing the back of my neck sheepishly, "Heh, heh. Sorry about that song thing. It was just a stupid dare."

"That was awesome, plus it's pretty hard to get my little bro here to laugh." The blonde said while rubbing the red head's head.

"Oh how rude of us! We haven't even introduced ourselves! I'm Sakura Hanuro, the blonde one with the ponytail is Ino Yamanaka, the one with buns in her hair is Tenten, and the one who sang you that beautiful song and asked you out is Hinata Hyuuga. By the way we are all fourteen." I blushed when Sakura introduced me.

"Well I'm Temari, the brunette guy is Kankuro, the red head is Gaara, and I'm the oldest being sixteen, Kankuro is fifteen, and Gaara is the youngest at fourteen like you guys. We are the Sabaku siblings" Temari said introducing herself and her siblings.

Few hours went by as we conversed with the Sabaku siblings. Apparently they were in a band called Sand Bandits with some other guys. It consisted of Temari, Gaara, Kankuro, Kiba, Chouji and Shino. Gaara and Kankuro are living with the rest of the Sand Bandits as well as Lee and Sai who did some modeling. The girls and I remembered a few familiar faces from Konoha who had moved in middle school. Apparently Temari, Kankuro, and Gaara were the only ones from Suna.

"Say… if you guys are looking for a place to rent I know this great bungalow near my brother's place. I'm looking for a place myself. Can't stay with the boys forever." Temari mentioned. That's brilliant! First day in Suna and we are already might find a place.

"That's great! How big is it?" asked Sakura.

"Well is has two bedrooms, living room, kitchen, two bathrooms, and a loft. It's somewhat small though except one of the bedrooms is huge." Temari replied. It already sounds perfect to me.

"Well we can all share a room. I'm sure the rest of the girls wouldn't mind" Tenny said while looking at each of us. I nodded my head back at her to show that I agreed. The girls and I can just get a huge bed and share. I turned to look at the Temari girl. Poor girl is looking for a place too.

"And since you are looking for a place why don't you stay with us. You seem pretty chill. Plus you don't look like someone who would try to kill us in our sleep" I offered. She is nice plus she has connections with some local recording companies. At least I'm pretty sure she does. "The rest of us don't mind I hope" I continued looking at the other girls nodding their heads at me.

"Wow! Thanks! Maybe we can sing together sometime as well. And I guess that means you guys want to rent out the place, right?"

"Yes definitely!" Ino started. "How much is the place?"

"Well places in Suna run pretty expensive considering how popular this place is. It's gonna cost us $2000 a month, but if you want to rent out the place with a contract you are going to have to pay for the first two months when signing the contract." Temari answered. I just slacked my jaw.

"That's all our money already!" Saku exclaimed exasperatedly.

"Don't forget that we spent about $300 on our lunch." Tenny added.

"Well from the money Temari made from working she should have almost $1000" Kankuro added.

"Yeah don't forget that I'm your new roommate. I'll pitch in my fair share every month" said Temari.

"That's great!" I said. "Um… well could you guys hook us with some jobs, you know, like where you work?" I asked sheepishly. The rest of the girls were rubbing the back of their heads with me. I think I just laughed awkwardly. Man I'm such a weirdo.

"Yeah sure! Definitely! Matsuri could ask her parents for a few extra people!" Temari said. I sighed with relief. Maybe this won't be so hard after all.

"That's awesome!" Ino said excitedly. "Um, btw, what do you guys do for work besides being the Sand Bandits?" That's a good question. I haven't that far ahead myself. I turned to look at the Sabaku siblings.

"We model." They said calmly.

Ino squealed.

Sakura's jaw just fell.

Tenten paled.

I'm pretty sure my eye is twitching.

"Well..." I continued, "Let's get on with our lives! Temari, take us our new home!"

Me: So what'd you guys think?

Ino: Oh I dunno… How about we talk about why it took you forever to finally type up a new chapter! What did you guys think about that? Huh! Answer me Azu!

Me: Haha… Um… Funny story I actually I had most of this typed up back in November or December, but like Kakashi got lost on the road of life.

Tenten: I'm not gonna even bother with you anymore. Once a procrastinator always a procrastinator.

Me: Awwww, don't give up on me just yet! I have ideas for this story but it's all for later in the story so I'm kinda having a hard time building up to those ideas, sheesh!

Sakura: At least you got us a cute little bungalow and a new friend.

Temari: You FINALLY introduced me! What took you so long?

Me: Do I need to repeat myself. Btw Hinata why are you so quiet?

Hinata: *twitch* What the hell was that! First I get dumped by Naruto then I have to embarrass myself in front of his equally hot friend, Gaara.

Me: At least you got to sing something by Avril Lavigne.

All: Btw thank you hinatafan711 for mentioning Avril Lavigne!

Me: I think I might put in more songs by her, but sadly there won't be any singing until the next chapter.

All: Anyways, please review! We'd really appreciate it.

Hinata, Ino, Tenten, Temari, and Sakura: And we deeply apologize for the author's laziness. We will try to get her to update sooner.

Me: Hey!
