Chapter 1

Title: Jane Doe in Wonderland

[Author's notes: Yep...The song title is from Lost Prophets, as do the lyrics at the beginning of this story. But, that's a different one, Everyday Combat. Hope you like the story!]

::Ino's House; the Living Room::

//Times up, let's go, all that we know
Release tension, you're my hero
After dark, terror in the town high street
And I know you can't stop full throttle
Get involved mate, broken bottle
(Invasion) Panic on the cold concrete

So raise your glass my son
We're telling everyone...//

Cheerful rock music swept over the room like a brush fire, teenage girls twisting to the beat of the song. Sitting Indian-style on Sakura's feathery bed, Hinata lightly sipped the beer given to her by Temari as she listened to the other girls laugh and enjoy themselves. Hell, even Ryuu had joined in [with Xena's influence, of course...], and she was the most self-loathing thing Hinata had ever seen. Still...since the young Dragon had become friends with Xena, most of her inhibitions had all but melted away. And there the two were: shamelessly grinding against eachother like a pair of lovers...

"C'mon, Hinata! Have some fun for once!"

It was then that TenTen playfully siezed Hinata's wrist, pulling her onto the dance floor with the other girls. Soon, she were lost in an ocean of writhing bodies, doing her best to become one of the crowd as well. Hinata's long, silky hair cascaded over her shoulders like a blueberry waterfall as she swayed her hips to the beat of Marilyn Manson's "Slutgarden". TenTen quickly took advantage of this moment to dry hump the Hyuuga Heiress, siezing her around the waist and ginding her hips to Hinata's rear. That elicited a loud blush from the Hyuuga.

"T-TenTen-chan?" In response, the brunette pressed her lips against the coil of Hinata's ear, continuing to dance.

"Shh...Lighten up, sweetheart."

TenTen's hand wondered to the Hyuuga's hair, enjoying its softness and aroma. Hinata-chan smelled of Jasmine...which was exactly how TenTen thought she would smell. Hinata obeyed the rising heat in her body and melted against the Brunette. TenTen's hands were everywhere. Delicate, long fingers pinching and stroking...A light moan escaped Hinata's lips, a sound that was promptly silenced with a passionate kiss. TenTen's lips were so soft, nothing like a man's. Naruto couldn't hold a candle to the Weapons Mistress. And she knew every weak point of a woman's body, every touchable spot that made Hinata writhe with desire. Men couldn't do that. Now Hinata finally understood the love between Xena and Ryuu...

===

"So...Forehead-girl. Truth or dare." Smirked Ino, brushing her bangs from her eyes.

The pink-haired girl knitted her brow in thought for a moment.
"Dare." She answered confidently.

"I dare you to give Yumi a lap dance!"

Sakura folded her arms across her chest.
"Hell no. I don't like Yumi--ow!" She nursed the bruise on the back of her head, but finally gave in. "Fine..." She growled under her breath.

Sakura followed the rules of her dare, all the while noticing the intimacy between Hinata and TenTen. The two ladies sat adjacent to eachother, Hinat's fingers laced with the brunette's. The pink-haired girl grinned at this and punched the recipient of the lap dance in the shoulder.

"That's for earlier."

"Whatever..."

Sakura returned to her seat and smirked at her group of potential victims. She finally settled on one:
"Ryuu! Truth or dare, Dragon."

"Truth." Ryuu answered almost immediately.

"Okay...Have you ever secretly wanted to rape Lee?"

"You mean...out of rage or jealousy?"

"Any reason. Any you can think of."

The Dragon wrinkled her nose in thought like she usually did, almost angered at the thought of having sex with her eternal rival...forcing him or otherwise.
"No. I've only wanted to beat him fair and square in the Taijutsu ring! I'll make it worse than rape. I'll make him wish he never met my father!"

Everyone was terrified at the normally placid Dragon seething and roaring like her namesake. Fangs bared, eyes blazing with rage. Lee was still a sore spot with her. Suddenly, Xena planted a kiss on her girlfriend's cheek, and Ryuu's anger melted into a light blush; she hung her head in shame.

"I'm sorry. I'm really sorry about that. I just...really hate him."

Temari smirked.
"Well, healthy anger is a good thing! Imagine if Yumi and Xena were happy all the time."

The black-haired girl laughed at loud.
"Oh, my god. I'd go CRAZY in the first five minutes!" She wrapped her arm around Ryuu. "And if not for you...I'd be angry all the time, wouldn't I?"

The Dragon nodded. "Mm-hm."

TenTen grippped Hinata's hand harder in hers.

====

"So...who's your latest squeeze, Ino-pig?" Sakura cooly asked the blonde. In response, Ino grinned deviously.

"You'll never guess, Forehead-girl."

Xena scooted forward in anticipation.
"Oh, come on! It's Gaara, isn't it? I've seen you hanging around Sand a lot lately..."

"Nope."

"Kenta?" TenTen suggested.

Ino's grin would not fade. "Not even close."

"It's Kankurou. He told me about it." All eyes turned to Ryuu, of whom looked fairly pleased with herself. Ino's jaw dropped.

"H-how--"

"I thought it was pretty obvious. He's been a lot happier lately and...yeah. Sorry about that, hehe..."

The conversation then focused on each of the girls. Yumi dreamily recanted her moments with Ritsu, how he would show his love for her in ways normal men could not. His spiritual voice playing her like a harp, the caresses of the voice he himself could never hear. Sakura spoke of Kiba's nymphomania and how willing he had been to experiment...A smirking Temari told the group of Naruto's playful Kyuubi and all the lust that transpired from it. Xena was a bit more forward in telling them about Ryuu, of whom was able to add her say, how the pair first met, their first date and kiss, leading up to the point when the two first made love--which Ryuu attempted to censor to the point of making the entire group die of laughter. No one ever had ever seen Ryuu turn *that* shade of red...

The Dragon did her best to change the subject. "Alright! Now, that's enough! Cut it out! Um, what about you, TenTen?"

The brunette looked to Hinata, of whom was blushing almost as bad as Ryuu. TenTen then turned to the audience.

"I'm sorry, but I love her with all my heart. And she wouldn't want me to destroy such a precious moment by telling it to an audience."

Hinata felt tears form around her opaque eyes when she heard these words. To be loved in a way that TenTen would protect everything that Hinata was...To give her everything...That was love.

"That's so sweet...Okay, TenTen, we'll respect your privacy." Yumi smiled.

"Still, I'd like to know who the lucky girl is..." Xena cupped her chin in thought.

"It's me." Came a small voice beside TenTen. All eyes were now on Hinata, not judging, just curious. Temari grinned at the pair.

"I'm glad you're with TenTen-chan. I'd be worried if you were with a man..."

Xena agreed, taking a glance at Ryuu.
"Mm-hm. You two are just adorable."

===

::The Next Morning::

Hinata awoke to the sunlight creeping in from Ino's bedroom window. Glancing around, she saw a snoozing Xena with her arms draped around her neurotic lover and a snoring Temari with her mouth gaping open, a bit of drool slithering over her bottom lip. Sakura and Yumi were across the room from eachother, their hatred for another blatantly obvious. And there, beside the Hyuuga Heiress, was TenTen, hair flyaway and out of buns. Her lips were curled in a peaceful smile.

Hinata found herself in bliss with her new girlfriend, and leaned in to press her lips to the brunette's freckled cheek.
