A/N: Yeah, technically a "Golem Army" isn't a character of DGM, but I am the AUTHOR and I say that I can. Other notice: my story Allen ga Kiru is up for adoption, so message me if you want to take it? Mn.

MRRRWOBL, MRRRRR-PP!

Tenten stared at the blob slowly beginning to rise out of the ground, but she wasn't actually freaking out (not when she'd seen Guy-sensei and Rock Lee in spandex and survived). She blamed this on Gaara, who just had to go and get himself captured by the Akatsuki for who-knows-what reasons - she didn't care, but she and her team were assigned to this mission, and they were going to finish it.

It was when Blob turned into, like, her doppelganger that she started panicking a bit.

As Tenten threw a kunai and dodged one whistling towards her head, she wondered if her teammates were fighting their evil twins, too. Damn booby traps. She unfurled the weapons scroll strapped to her back again, intent on firing some ninja stars at Other Tenten.

But then something yellow-ish with wings fluttered out. Then a black one. And a green one. She hastily unstrapped her scroll and tossed it to the ground. A rushing wave of - Golems, she thought, remembering reading some bestiaries before - in shades varying from solid colors to opalescent.

Tenten gaped as the golden one flew right up to Other Tenten and viciously bit her earlobe. The other two original ones tag-teamed and ganged up on the girl; tugging at her black hair and tripping her feet.

"The heck!?"

The remaining few-hundred-or-so golems gathered up in one, huge, massive, rolling wave of colors, then pierced down at their target like a hawk diving in to catch its prey.

Except , instead of coming up after giving Other Tenten some nibbled here and there, the golems split up. About a quarter of them hovered around in case their opponent tried to break free, but the rest pummeled Other Tenten by ramming into her.

Whenever the doppelganger managed to aim and throw a kunai or the like, it would be blocked by one of the things and clatter right off. What were those golems made of, anyway?

Surely, they should've been alive and with flesh, not machines?

Regular Tenten broke out of her reverie.

"Let me help!" She shouted, summoning a handful of throwing stars.

The mass of creatures parted slightly and left an opening straight to Other Tenten's struggling body.

Tenten aimed and threw the star as hard as she could.

Shunk!

The golems dispersed; Other Tenten, her limbs riddled with bites and teeth marks, the throwing star imbedded in her chest, sank to the ground and melted back into it.

"What the hell happened?" Tenten deadpanned, turning to the group of golems flitting here and there nonchalantly.

The golden one looked away from a particularly interesting beetle on the floor (wait, it didn't have eyes in the first place, though) and grinned rather creepily and evilly, revealing teeth as sharp as a tiger's, if not sharper. Then it shook its tail around, and Tenten got the feeling that it was saying something to the likeness of, Kiss my ass, human!

"Go to hell." She replied automatically. Dammit brain.

They - every single orb of every single color - vanished.

"I didn't mean it, you know…" Tenten trailed off uncertainly when she noticed that a new summoning seal had been imprinted onto her unfurled scroll (thrown on the ground in her haste to participate in fighting). It would have been the same as the ones for weapons, if not for the fact that a likeness of the snarky yellow golem was there, too.

Maybe she'd use it in a fight later?

Maybe.
