Liana was about to flip back to the drawing of Sasuke when someone swiped the book out of her hands before she could turn the page. She saw Naruto held the book in his hands and was paging through the book.
"Man, why is there so many drawings of you sad," he asked as she tried to snatch the book from him.
"Because that is past and I don't want to relive it," Liana said as Naruto tossed it to Sakura.
"Then why do you draw it," Sakura asked as she paged through the book.
"I just draw what I think and right know I am thinking of kicking your butts if you don't give me that book," she said as she tossed it back to Naruto but Sasuke caught it opened to the drawing of him she just started.
"This is good," he said as he handed her the book.
"Thanks, I just started it, I hope my new squad is not like you two," she said as she looked over at Naruto and Sakura. She noticed Sasuke was about to say something when the door opened to show two figures. One man had silver hair and the majority of his face was covered while the other guy a bowl cut shaped hair and bushy eyebrows.
"Hello, youth," the bowl cut guy yelled out as he struck a pose that was really odd with everything about him.
Liana was stunned by his stance but drew a bit of it.
"Now, where is this new genin I am to take up as my own student," the guy said.
"That's her," the other guy said as he pointed at Liana.
"Well, hey there, let's go have you meet with the rest of team Gai. I am Gai," he said as he smiled a cheesy smile.
"Cool, see you guys later," Liana said as she walked out the room with Gai sensei.
"So, what is your name," he asked.
"Liana Parisian," Liana said.
"That has a nice ringer to it, what do you mainly fight with," he asked.
"Ink, that is pretty much it, I don't use real shuriken or kunai instead ink and many different types that I make for battle," she said.
"Really, that is different, well we are almost there," he said as they walked up a flight of stairs to a covered veranda.
They walked to the end where she saw three genin were sitting. She couldn't quite make out their faces yet.
"Everyone, this is Liana Parisian, she will be with us because she is too smart for her own class so they stuck her with us," Gai said as he and Liana walked closer and she could see everyone's faces.
"It is great to see you will be joining us Liana, I am Rock Lee but everyone calls me Lee," he said as she looked him over to see he looked exactly like Gai.
"Are you two related," Liana asked.
"Why would you say that," Lee asked.
"Well, you and Gai sensei are wearing the same clothes and have the same hair style," she said.
"No, we are not related but I greatly respect Gai sensei and love to wear my style like his," Lee said.
"Alright," Liana said as a girl with buns on her head stood up.
"Excuse Lee he can be like this. I am Tenten," she said.
"Glad to know I won't be the only girl on the squad," Liana said.
"Great to have another girl on the squad, it tends to be odd with these two," she said as she pointed to Lee and the last person Liana thought she would ever see, Neji.
"Neji, you're on this squad," Liana asked as she looked over at him while he stood up.
"You two already know each other," Gai asked.
"Yeah, he saved me from being trampled by Ino and Sakura this morning," Liana said.
"Really and why didn't you tell us you met such a pretty girl, Neji," Lee asked as Liana felt herself smile.
"It was not worth telling, Lee," Neji said as she felt her smile disappear.
"Neji, that was a little rude, don't worry Liana he is always like this," Tenten said.
"No, it's alright I was just in the way so when do we start training," Liana asked as she looked over at Gai sensei.
"Tomorrow morning at five, we will be running one hundred laps around the village," he said as Liana's eyes widened.
"One hundred laps why so many," she asked.
"Because it is great exercise and will increase your speed," Lee said energetically.
"How does he have so much energy," Liana asked Tenten.
"I don't know and we have been a squad for a little over a year now," she said.
"Really, I didn't think my scores was that good to be on this squad," Liana said.
"They must be if you managed to be with us," Neji said.
"I guess," Liana said.
"Alright, you four, see you all propped and ready at five in the morning at this spot," he said as they nodded and then he ran off.
"Well I guess I will see you all in the morning," Liana said.
"Alright, where do you live," Tenten asked.
"Not that far from here just a little bit further down the road," Liana said.
"Great, I'll walk you home, I live that way as well," Tenten said.
"Alright, see you guys later," Liana said as she and Tenten started to leave.
"See you tomorrow Liana, bye Tenten," Lee said as he smiled and waved to them while Neji just stood there watching them leave.
"Alright, Lee, bye Neji," Liana said as she and Tenten left.
Lee's POV
Lee watched as Tenten left with Liana while she was looking at Neji. Lee looked over at Neji to see he was just staring at her as she left.
"Neji, why were you so rude to Liana," Lee asked as Neji looked over at him.
"You know how I am Lee. I don't know her well enough to trust her the way you and Tenten already do and I don't think she is that great of a ninja. I had to save her from being trampled over by two girls. Any ninja knows when to move but she did not," Neji said as he rests his arms on the railing and looking down at the streets below.
Lee rested his arms on the rail as well and looked in his gaze of direction to see he was staring at Liana.
"Really and how was her touch when you grabbed her," Lee asked.
"What do you mean," Neji asked.
"Neji, I know you all too well," Lee said.
"Maybe you do Lee but not as well as you think," Neji said as he left.
Lee watched as Liana turned left with Tenten to her building.
I think I might know what is going on here
