"pay attention nara!"

I sighed. Lady tsunde came up with the bright idea to have my team and team guy to pair up for a mission. I think she just did it to punish me. Women are so cruel!

I mean out of all the teams why team guy? Lee's loud and troublesome, tentens opinionated and troublesome and nejis a mixture of both of them. Just plain troublesome!

"nara!"

"yeah I hear you hyuga! Kinda impossible not to" I muttered the last part of myself.

Neji glared at my comment. I glared back. I'm not afraid of him. Some hyuga prodigy doesn't scare me.

"hey guys why don't we have a rest" tenten said quickly "we need to be at our best if we want to have a
successful mission"

"yeah I'm starving" choji sighed.

"choji your always hungry!" ino scolded.

"what do you think neji?" Lee asked "You are the group leader after all"

Neji thought for a moment before sighing "I suppose there's no harm in a rest"

"cool. I'll be over here if anyone needs me" I said as I headed over to a nearby tree for some shade.

Maybe I can catch some zs. It would be nice to get away from the others for a while...
