They asked for the old lady that was renting a room to different people. After following the directions given, they soon found the house that they were looking for. They knocked, anticipating the old lady to answer them, but instead they were greeted by a familiar face.
"Oh.. Neji, Kiba what are you guys doing here?"
**********!**********
"T-Temari? What are you doing here?" they both asked in unison.
"Um…I'm the first one to ask the question so I'm expecting to receive an answer first"
"W-where here for important reasons" The Hyuuga answered.
"Oh, I see… and would this 'important reason' be your honeymoon?"she said with a smirk on her lips and a tone that seems to unerve both men.
"NO!" they shouted at the woman who kept on smirking,; but this also caught the attention of few villagers nearby. Having noticed, Kiba quickly responded.
"We mean no, thank you for your offer about a tour around the village. My wife and I want to rest first before we proceed to that."he said calmly, like there is nothing wrong.
Temari just raised an eyebrow, showing a confused face. "I don't know what you're talking about me being a tour guide. But I guess this just proves me right about you two being a couple." Having said, both Konoha shinobi turned red, being embarrassed by the statement the woman just said. Her smirk returning, she asked "So am I right?"they just reddened even more remaining silent.
The villagers seems more interested and confused at the scene. 'we have to stop this. If we keep this up, the villagers would have suspicions and I'm sure that Temari wouldn't let us slip so easily. Maybe I should fake gagging, that way we could get into the house with less suspicions from them.'Neji thought. 'well might as well do, I've been embarrased enough'
"(gag)Kiba…"he said, looking at his partner with eyes that could make anyone pity him. Realizing what Neji wanted to happen. He looked at the blonde, who was staring at Neji, and said "can you show us were your bathroom is?"
"why?" the blonde said, leaving his attention at Neji. Kiba was about to respond when the other brunette decide to suddenly rush past Temari and into the house. It was now Kiba's turn to do the smirking "that's why."
He said, before following Neji with Akamaru in the house.
When all of them were in the house, they saw Neji leaning against the doorway of the bathroom like he was waiting for them. The Hyuuga looked at the blonde expecting to see worry in her, but instead he was shocked to see her smile in joy. Then she punched Kiba in the arm saying "ha, I never knew that the both of you are gay, I'm okay with it actually as long as you don't turn my shika into one but now, not only are you gay but you even seem to break the laws of nature, Congratulations!."she said, while trying her best not to laugh. This seemed to made the two deepened the red across their face.
"This isn't what it seems, Temari." Neji said, standing infront of Temari. 'does she really believe this?'he thought.
"No need to explain yourself, really, all is just good to me." In fits of laughter, she said approvingly.
"Temari, I and Kiba are both straight; we're not gay, so that means we are not married and having a honeymoon. I am also not expecting any child of sort; that also means we're not breaking any laws of nature."
"Calm down Neji, I was just joking you. Besides, would you really assume that I would believe all of this ?" Kiba and Neji just stood there, speechless.
"So if you don't mind me asking, what is the real reason you're here." She asked in a serious tone.
Kiba turned to face Neji. "Maybe we could tell her, she is our friend not to mention an ally of the leaf." Neji nodded. "I agree, and I'm guessing if we don't tell her the truth, she'll just throw a tantrum at us." After Kiba also nodding in agreement, they turned to face the now unpatient blonde.
"Can we talk at somewhere private?"
The blonde nodded. They expected to be lead in a room that is private but instead they saw her carefully handling her fan as if preparing an attack. With several handsigns and one swift motion, the house began to be filled with strong amounts of wind, closing every door and window in it tightly shut.
"Is this private enough for you?"
"T-this will do just fine, but why not in another room?"
"Even though the owner of this house decided to rent rooms, it is still not that big. It only houses 3 master-sized bedrooms; 2 of which occupied by me and the owner, and I'm guessing that you are also interested in occupying the other. So I prefer to have this setup as the most private that I can offer.
"Understood. I guess we should start explaining…" they headed towards the living room. As they sat on the couch Kiba continued for Neji. "Well, we have been sent here by the hokage for a 9 month undercover mission due to a said spread of poison all over the fire country." Before anyone of them had the chance to continue, a voice of an old lady was heard.
"Temari? Are you there? There was this strong wind that awoke me from my nap, is it from you" said the lady slowly approaching.
"Oh and are these your friends?" she asked with a smile.
Temari nodded and lead the lady to sit with them on the couch. "Sorry for waking you up, granny Tsuki."
"It's okay, I also needed to wake up now to tend the garden. But may I ask what's your friends business here? They are ninjas like you aren't they? You might be in danger here, especially it seems the one of you are carrying." Smile never leaving her smile was mixed of worry for the two shinobis before her.
"Don't need to worry miss, we will go undercover for this mission and we will make sure as to not be spotted. But can we trust you, not that we are being rude, just making sure."
"I assure you that you can trust me your from leaf right? An ally of the sand? I was from the sand back then, a professional midwife. I even help their mother birth all three of them and I can tell you that Temari's cheeks when she was born were so plump, she even looked like this." Granny Tsuki then made a face, making her cheeks puff up. "granny please don't do tht infront of them, I'm embarrassed!" she blushed. " What she meant to say is that you can trust her." she continued for her. The old lady nodded in approval.
"Well then, …" Kiba started.
"Please just call me granny Tsuki."
He nodded and continued "We were sent here by our hokage to investigate and stop the spread of a rumored poison in this village, but it seems that you're security has alredy proven that rumor to be a fact. Are you aware of this, granny?" she sighed " Yes, I'm aware of it and I can much say that it is true." She frowned. "Our leader ordered the manufacturing of the poison about a year ago for unknown reasons. Nobody knew the exact reason actually, even the one who was ordered to make it. As her villagers, we only follow orders. We're not even allowed to protest against it for we will be punished. I and all of the others that lived here thank you for being here and wish both of you success in your mission. But please be do careful, you're the longest ninjas, excluding Temari , that had been here. All had died early.
And you young man, take care of your wife and unborn child." She said
"Um Granny Tsuki, I'm not exactly pregnant, I'm not even a girl to begin with and we're not truly married. This is just a part of our undercover."
She giggled. "What a girly man you grew up to be. Your even more beautiful than me when I was your age." She said.
"T-thank you for your c-compliment." He then growled at the two ninjas snickering at him. 'At least I was said to be beautiful.' He thought.
"Thank you for understanding us, Granny Tsuki. But please do keep our identities secret."she continued.
" sure thing. Oh, by the way, I've not yet known your full and true names."
"Well I'm Neji Hyuuga, but I'm on undercover as Nejiko Inuzuka and this idiot and annoying of a partner" "hey!" "is Kiba Inuzuka."
"And I'm Tsuki Watanabe." She smiled.
"Well enough chit-chat. I have one more question though." Temari said, looking intently on both of us.
"Did you already have your verification with the leader?"
"No."was the siple reply.
"Then good. I have a tip for you on that."
"And what would that be?" they both asked.
"Never tell that you're a ninja or that you're from a ninja village. They will surely ask you this. And for your other background details, that be more easy. Just don't slip anything while answering those too. You have agreed on what to say about your background, don't you?" she said, raising an eyebrow. She sighed, seeing that both of them shook their heads 'no'.
"If that's the case, I think it's better that only one of you have the verification."
"But the leader would be suspicious if one of us is absent." Confused, Kiba asked.
"What she means is that, you talk to her while I fake faint, it will leave no suspicions." Neji said. Kiba then understood.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Granny Tsuki, Temari are you home?" They froze.
"It's me, Lady Mai. I wish to speak with the two visitors of our village" she said.
Hastily, granny Tsuki got up from her seat and headed towards the door. She looked at them again, confirming that they are ready. Slowly, she opened the door.
"Good afternoon, ms. Watanabe."
"Good afternoon to you too, Mai-sama."
AN~
If you are wandering why Temari, my reason is because she has the attitude that could also annoy Neji and because she knows a lot about this act (but mostly to annoy Neji).
