"WHAT?"
"Penguins have attacked Konoha, and are threatening to dominate fire country!" Shizune gasped, out of breath.
Tsunade slammed her hand on the desk, "What are we going to do?"
Shizune looked up, "Why don't we get all the most talented genins, chuunins, and jounins to take care of them?"
"Brilliant! Give me names…"
"Oh yeah… all the jounins are out on a mission… all the chuunins are with the jounins… and a couple of genins too…"
"WHAAAAT?"
"Hold on… there's Uchiha Sasuke… Hyuuga Neji… and Uchiha Itachi!"
"…I…ta…chi? ARE YOU CRAZY?"
"AHH, HOW DID ITACHI GET ON THE LIST?"
"Uchiha and Hyuuga? That's IT? What about Uzumaki?"
"OH NO, THE PENGUINS HAVE DESTROYED THE ICHIRAKU RAMEN STAND!" Naruto yelled bursting in, "I'LL HELP NEJI AND SASUKE GET RID OF THEM!" he continued yelling, then jumped out the windows, "HEY, NEJI, SASUKE, HELP ME GET RID OF THE—AHHHHHH, THEY'RE KILLING ME!"
"Dobe…"
"Baka…"
The two prodigies sighed and jumped down to save Naruto from the wrath of the penguins.
Tenten watched from afar and giggled, "Aww… those penguins are so cute!" she said happily picking one up, "How could you harm anyone?"
It stared at her.
She stared at it.
It clomped onto her hand.
"OWWWWWWW!" she screamed as she started running around.
The penguins, noticing their ring leader clamped onto the brunette's hand, left the boys alone and began chasing after Tenten.
"HELP, THEY'RE GOING TO KILL ME!"
"Well, they're gone…" Sasuke muttered.
"NOOO, ICHIRAKU RAMEN STAND IS GONE FOREVER!" Naruto yelled, "THE WORLD IS OVER!" he continued. Suddenly he paused and picked up a piece of wood, "THIS WOOD WAS PART OF THE RAMEN STAND! I WILL TREASURE IT FOREVER!"
Everyone else, including the penguins, sweat dropped as they watched Naruto happily skip off.
Once he disappeared from sight, they turned their attention back to the cornered Tenten.
"Um… nice penguins… really, I'm not that yummy… I taste HORRIBLE," she continued, "I'm touching weapons all day, so my hands taste really really REALLY bitter because of the metal… HEY LOOK, HE'S MUCH MORE TASTIER!" she yelled pointing at Sasuke.
The penguins turned to Sasuke.
"I'm a boy. She's a girl. You'd want to eat her."
The penguins turned to Tenten who began laughing nervously.
"I'M GOING TO DIEE!" she screamed as they closed in.
Right at that moment, Neji appeared from nowhere and grabbed her waist, saving her from the penguins.
"Did you get here right at that second?"
"No. I watched you suffer first."
"WHAAT? I WAS ALMOST EATEN ALIVE!"
"Almost. Not quite."
Finally he set her down on the roof of Tsunade's office. His arm still didn't move.
"Um Neji… I won't fall…"
But I can't say I don't mind him holding me…
Neji didn't say anything and leaned in closer… and closer…
Tenten leaned in closer… and closer…
Their lips almost met… when…
"TENTEN, MY YOUTHFUL FRIEND, WAKE UP!"
Tenten's eyes snapped open as she sat up, and looked out the window. She inwardly groaned, I was so close to having Neji kiss me… even if it WAS a dream… duh it was a dream, no one was like their selves…
She sighed and got dressed, then jogged out to meet everyone else.
"TENTEN, OUR BLOSSOM, WE EXPECTED YOU TO BE ON TIME!" Gai yelled, pointing a finger at her.
"YES, MY YOUTHFUL FRIEND, YOU ARE LATE! YOUR YOUTH HAS BEEN TAINTED!" Lee yelled.
Neji rolled his eyes and stepped in front of Tenten, his hands still stuffed into his pockets, "Lee. You've been late a million times. So have you, Gai-sensei. Tenten's only been late once."
Pause…
"OH NO, NEJI IS SICK! HE WOULD NEVER SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT!" Lee yelled, "OR HE IS A CLONE!"
Neji sighed and activated his Byakugan.
Lee stepped behind Gai, "Okay, he's not a clone."
"LEE!"
"GAI-SENSEI!"
"LEE!"
"GAI-SENSEI!"
A sunset appeared behind them, waves, a rock, they hugged, yeah, you know the drill.
Tenten and Neji sweat dropped.
Finally they left to 'conserve their youth', and Tenten started to follow them, when Neji grabbed her wrist.
"Hey Tenten…"
"Hai?"
"…Did you have a dream about penguins last night?"
She stared at him, "Yeah…"
He smirked, "Did you wake up right when I was going to kiss you?"
She flushed, "Um… yeah…"
The smirk widened and he leaned in closer, "Why don't we continue from where we left off?"
The flush deepened, but she leaned in closer.
And closer…
And closer…
And closer…
And then their lips barely touched, and Tenten deepened it… they stayed like that… until…
"OH NO, NEJI IS TAINTING TENTEN'S YOUTH!" Lee yelled ruining their moment, "I HAVE RETURNED FOR WATER, BUT I SEE MY RIVAL TAINT OUR BLOSSOM'S YOUTH!"
Flushed they broke away. Neji glared at Lee, "You didn't see anything. If you did, your youth would be gone."
Pause...
"I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING! I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING!" he yelled running back to the forest.
"Hey Neji…"
"Hai?"
"Are you sure this isn't a dream? I mean, you'd never act like this…"
"…I think the dream messed up my brain…"
"Really. Are you sick? Maybe you are a clone…"
He grabbed her raised wrist and glared at her, "I. Am. Not. A. Clone," he said coldly and walked past her.
She giggled. So this isn't a dream… and that… really happened…
"Hey Neji, wait up!"
