AT THE HOKAGE'S OFFICE THE NEXT DAY

" You called us in Tsunade?" Sakura asked.

" Yes, I have a favor to ask of you." Tsunade continued, then she looked over at Melody. " Melody...he likes young girls doesn't he?"

Melody just nodded in shame, no muscles moving, hands still in pockets and head still tilted down.

" I need you two girls to do a dance, which type I don't know. But it needs to be seducing."

" What!" Sakura exclaimed.

" It's for the village Sakura." Tsunade added.

" Besides, Sasuke will get to see you." Melody spoke. That instantly changed her mind.

" You boys are going too, you'll need tuxes. I'll pay for the costumes and the tuxes. But you girls will have to go to your lesson right now. It's a few buildings down from here on your right, you can't miss it. Good day." Tsunade dismissed. They all nodded and walked out.

AT THE DANCE

" So Sasuke do you know what type of dance they are doing?" Naruto asked as he and Sasuke waited for the girls at the gate.

" No."

" Aren't you curious? Wouldn't you loooove to see what seductive dance Melody is doing?" Naruto teased. Sasuke paused.

" No."

" Lies! You paused!"

" Keh."

" Hey guys! What do you think?" Sakura called as she ran up to them with Melody behind her. Sasuke and Naruto just completely by passed Sakura and looked over at Melody. There she was, basically in a bra and pants that looked like a long skirt.

Sasuke quickly turned hid his up coming nose bleed as Naruto just fell to the floor.

" Naruto!" Melody exclaimed. She quickly ran up to him and held his upper body in her hands. " You alright?"

" Of course he is! He just fell to the ground at the sight of your chest!" Sakura fumed. Melody sighed and looked over at Sakura.

" And what do you suppose Sasuke was doing hm?" She asked. Sakura froze with anger

" He wouldn't do that!"

" Right...that explains his nose bleeding."

" What!" Sakura exclaimed.

" Sakura, they are boys. Get use to it." Melody sighed as she helped Naruto to his feet and dusted him off. Sakura just growled and turned her head.

" Come on guys, lets go." Melody continued as she started to walk.

They soon got the front gate of where they were suppose to be. But the only problem was that everyone was going in as couples or a pair.

" I call Melody!" Naruto exclaimed as he hooked arms with her.

" Don't touch me." Sasuke snapped as Sakura went to do the same. Sakura just sighed and walked as close as she could next to him.

" Name." The guard said.

" Well actually, me and my half sister are here to perform for him. But please make and acceptance of these boys escorting us." Melody said with an innocent look.

" I'm sorry, but I must know your name."

Melody growled to herself and unhooked from Naruto's arm.

" Please? I really want to show him what I can do. Then I can show you afterwards...in a room...just you and me." She whispered into his ear. Naruto and Sasuke had to stop their up coming nose bleeds once again. But could you blame them! Here is the most beautiful and talented girl in the world, acting sexy as could be!

" Well..."

" Come on, for me? I'll let you do what ever you want."

" I don't think-"

" You know, this body an do more than just dancing."

" Holy shi*" Naruto and Sasuke thought to themselves. Just imagining that...oh my god.

" Come on big boy, you would do that for me wouldn't you? Just let me and my sister in, then I can show you what I really can do later on tonight."

" Alright, you can go in."

" Thank you so much!" Melody cried. " Come on sweetie!"

She quickly grabbed Naruto's hand and ran inside with Sasuke and Sakura next to them.

" You have got to teach me that!" Sakura said. Melody just shrugged it off and continued to look around.

" He'll be to drunk to notice me. Then I can get my sister and get out of here as quickly as possible." Melody thought.

As she and Sakura stepped up, she took a deep breath. He looked at her with disgusting eyes. All Melody could do was just finish her two dances, find her sister and get out of there. Just as she was doing knee turns * those things are so cool!* she caught her fabric and made her loose her balance. She quickly put one had on the floor and pushed up into a single handed handstand.

He sat there watching her, eyes completely off of Sakura. He took another sip of his drink and watched them finish. Everyone applauded for them and they walked off.

Melody stopped herself from shaking. Those eyes was horrible. She quickly and quietly snuck out of the main party and ran out back. Soon she came into view with another small building and snuck to the side were a window was at. She climbed in and saw the Anbu member behind bars.

" Relax, I'm here to help you." She whispered. The anbu lady looked up and had tears in her eyes. Melody looked around and finally found the keys hanging on the wall. She unlocked it and the woman immediately cried into her shoulder. All Melody could do was comfort her. She knew exactly how she felt.

" Come on, you'll see a girl out front in the same outfit as me. She'll take you home." Melody explained.

" Thank you so much." The anbu woman said before she left. Melody just nodded and looked around.

" Amber!" She called in a whisper. " Amb- Oh no."

There before her was her little sister...dead. Melody couldn't hold her tears anymore. She dropped to her knees and held her little sister in her arms.

" Amber...I'm so sorry...why did you run away when we were so close to safety?" She cried. " Why?"

" Melody! Are you ok?" Sakura asked. " You look beautiful and your dress is breath taking!"

" Thanks." Melody mumbled. " I'm going up."

Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke all looked at each other for a moment before turning their eyes. Melody began to dance so beautiful to a rather sad song. None of them knew she was so flexable! But she looked like she was on the verge of tears when she was out there.

" I will not stand here and dance for this monster. I will kill him!" Melody thought. She reached inside her sleeve and before they all knew it, he had a kunai in his heart.

" So you found out huh Melody?" He asked.

" You're damn right I did! How can you even have a heart to live? Killing my little sister! Tell me! Tell me now!" Melody roared with tears. He just smiled at her.

" Because, her dancing was pathetic."

" It wasn't pathetic! Amber put her heart and soul into her dancing! Maybe she would have gotten better had you given her a chance!"

" At least dance for me one last time." He requested.

" You have seen enough of me and my dancing. Now go send her a letter and beg to her for forgiveness!" Melody shouted as she threw another kunai into his throat. Everyone went quiet.

" I'm through being a piece of your stupid games. Lets go." She said as she waved for her team to follow her, already knowing that the Anbu woman went ahead. Being quiet as could be, her team followed her in silence.

" Nah Melody? How about we have a 7 minutes in heaven party tonight?" Sakura suggested.

" 7 minutes in heaven? What's that?" Melody asked.

" Oh you'll find out. I'll call everyone so they know to come over." Sakura continued as she pulled out her cell phone. At least she was able to get Melody's mind off of her sister

Melody sat there and continued to play a round of shoji with Shikamaru. She didn't dare to tell anyone about her little sister nor did she dare to think of it.

" Melody! Grab an object out of here!" Sakura chirped.

" Is this part of that 7 minutes in heaven crap?" Melody asked.

" You don't know what 7 minutes in heaven is!" Kiba gasped. " What about ' would you rather'?"

" Nope...so I just pick something from this hat?"

Sakura nodded with a smile. All the boys instantly crossed their fingers and prayed, even Neji was in his mind.

" A shoji piece...so that's where that went! Shikamaru you cheater!" Melody teased. Shikamaru stood up with a smirk and held his hand out to her. She blinked and took it. But the girls called Melody over and the boys called Shikamaru.

" Now what?" Melody asked.

" Well...we changed the game. It's an hour in heaven. The rule is that you must kiss at least once or you go back in and it has to be longer than 10 seconds and on the lips."

" So detailed. Alright, alright, I'm going." Melody said with a wave of her hand.

" Shikamaru, I dare you to see how far she will let you go!" Naruto smirked.

" Do I have to?"

" Yes, it was a dare. Now go."

" So troublesome. Come on Melody." He called as he walked down the hall and into a bedroom. Melody just followed him casually. As soon as she stepped into the room the door was shut and locked.

" Eh! Let me out of here!" Melody cried.

" It's part of the game!" Sakura answered.

" You don't have to lock the door!" Melody replied. Sakura must have thought it had something to do with her past and unlock it, but still kept it closed.

" Thank you." Melody sighed happily. Shikamaru looked up and noticed that she continued to rub her shoulder.

" Hey, you ok?" He asked.

" Yea, when me and Kiba were having that little wrestling match earlier I think he might have popped my shoulder out of place." She explained. Shikamaru sat down on the bed and patted the empty space in between his legs. Melody blinked for a moment but gladly took the offer. Melody felt Shikamaru hesitantly place his hands on her shoulder and began to work on it. Then suddenly he heard a pop.

" Is it in? Are you alright?" He asked. Melody paused for a moment and moved her shoulder around a little bit.

" Yea, thanks for worrying. But don't stop, it felt wonderful." She sighed as she laid back against him. Shikamaru felt himself blush as he raised his hands and began to message her shoulders.

* WHAT IT SOUNDED LIKE OUTSIDE*

" Is it in? Are you alright?" Shikamaru asked, causing everyone to go silent and put their ears against the was a pause.

" Yea, thanks for worrying. But don't stop, it felt wonderful." Melody replied. Everyone looked at each other.

" Geez, when I said go as far as she would let him I didn't mean that!" Naruto mumbled.

" They sure are tigers, already at this stage and they only have been in there for a little bit!" Kiba followed.

* BACK WITH MELODY AND SHIKAMARU*

" Oh wow Shikamaru, you're amazing! It really takes the stress away." Melody moaned as Shikamaru continued on. Shikamaru only groaned and continued on with his messaging.

" You want me to try now?" She asked.

" Only if you want to." Shikamaru replied.

" It's my pay." Melody explained as she switched places with him. Now Shikamaru knew what she meant by it took the stress away. Her hands were strong yet they were gentle. He didn't want her to stop.

" How am I doing?" She asked.

" Great." Shikamaru said.

" Don't you dare fall asleep on me Shika!" Melody said as she shook him a little.

" C-can you blame me? I just got back from a mission."

" Well what do you want to do that won't make you tired? Something that will keep you awake?" Melody asked as she rested her head on his shoulder.

" I don't know."

" Hm...you're troublesome you know that?" she asked.

" Don't mock me."

Melody just chuckled. " Well what do you want to do? We have 30 minutes left."
