Chapter one: The Maidens from Afar

 

 

Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, Lee, Neji, TenTen, Shikamaru, Ino, Chouji, Kankuro, Temari, and Gaara stood in the 3rd*?* Hokage's office. The 3rd Hokage sat and looked them over, he waited a few seconds then spoke.

“I have called all of you here to give you a mission. There is a hidden village in the mountains north of here. The Flower Village, in which the three Flower Maiden live. They have been promised to three young lords in the village. But until the ceremony they need to be protected from anyone who may seek to steal them away. Each of you will travel to the village and guard the Maidens. There names are Lilly-Bell, Thistle, and Honeysuckle. You will leave immediately, I have all your things packed and already at the Flora Palace in which you all will be staying. Are there any questions?"

"Sir?" Sakura spoke up. "We have to protect them... but from who? Have there been threats of kidnapping?" The 3rd Hokage staired at her and then spoke.

"There have been no threats but the three young maidens are extreamely beautiful and subject to such things. The High Lord, their father has requested the protection."

"When is this ceremony?" Lee asked.

"The ceremony is only a few weeks from now. Three or four I beleive. Anything else?" The 3rd Hokage seeing that there were no more questions sent the young ninja's on their mission.

*Several Hours Later*

 

"Guys, I think I see it!" Naruto yelled to his friends. They all *except Gaara and his team* ran to the top of the hill that Naruto was at and looked down into the valley. A small village lay just below them, and in the middle of the village was a large palace. "The Flora Palace... it's really pretty from the outside... wonder what it's like on the inside..." The village was surrounded by a tall fence covered by what seemed to be vines with colorful flowers blooming from them. There were many tiny houses each with a beautiful garden surrounding it, there were what looked like small and large koi ponds in the gardens and a large fountain in front of the palace though they could not make out the statue in the center of it. Sakura exhailed and spoke up.

"Only one way to find out." Sakura said as she started down the hill to the village. A few minutes later they reached the gates to the village and were greeted by a man with long white hair pulled into a ponytail. His eyes were baby blue and his skin was darkly tanned, his body was lean but not scrawny by any means. TenTen blushed as he looked her over.

"Hello, my name is Thicket. This is the Flower Village, I beleive that you all are the young ninja's that our High Lord called for; are you not?"

"Yes, we are." TenTen said still blushing. Thicket smiled and motioned for them to follow him.

*The Leaf Village*

 

"Lord Hokage." Kakashi said looking towards the Northern Moutnains. "Do you think it was a good idea to send them? What if something happens?"

"Like what?"

"I just think you maybe should have sent only TenTen, Temari, Ino, and Sakura to protect them... I may be out of place to say this but I think it was unwise to send the boys..."

"I see your point... hmm..."

................................................................. ........................................................................... ...................................................

 

*The Flora Palace*

 

"High Lord. The young ninja are here sir. Shall I escort them to the young maidens common chamber?" Thicket asked.

"Yes go ahead..."

................................................................. ........................................................................... ...................................................

 

*The Common Chambers*

 

"Come this way..." Thicket showed them all their rooms and then took them to Common Chambers. "My young maidens... Might you come out? Your young protecters are here. You should all meet them now."

 

The doors to their rooms opened at the same time and three young wemon walked out, their faces covered from the nose down by a triditional fan.

"I will introduce you all."Thicket introduced the young maidens to their protecters then walked over to the three girls. "Now I shall introduce you all to the young maidens..." He stood by the first girl, she closed her fan to show her face. Her skin was pale and flawless. She had deep aquamarine eyes and long black hair pulled into a Sailor Moon style with faux dove wings attached to the buns of her hair. She wore a white kimono and her lips were colored with a kiss me pink color of paint.

"This is Lilly-Bell..." Lilly-Bell's eyes looked over all of the others until she stopped on Lee. He had a serious look that made her want to laugh. She looked at his odd features and became lost in her thoughts.

'He is sooo weird looking... but I think he's kinda' cute... Rock Lee... His odd name fits him... I love odd people...'

Thicket saw her eyeing him and nudged her from behind as he walked past her to the next young maiden. The second girl's hair was dark red, not in any style just flowing down her back and over her shoulders and her eyes were of the lightest mint green. Her skin was tanned lightly and she wore a red kimono, her eyes were colored with black liner that made her eyes flare and her lips were colored with a black paint.

"This is Thistle." Thicket walked to the final girl who was not as skinny as the other two but not fat either, her eyes were a beautiful goldenrod, her hair was long and blonde. It was two long braides that ran down her back. Her skin was a natural color and in her hand was a half eaten peach. Her kimono was a pretty peach color and unlike the others did not fit to her body well.

"And finally this is HoneySuckle, I will leave you all to get aquainted." with that Thicket left. They all sat there not talking, mearly stairing at eachother. HoneySuckle got up and walked behind a counter and pulled out a bag of peaches.

"Well whatever you all want to do you can do it without me, I'm starving..." she placed a peach at her mouth and sank her teeth into it.

"You just ate 15 minutes ago..." Lilly-Bell said smiling. She noticed a rather plump boy looking at the bag of peaches on the counter and saw him switch his attention to HoneySuckle.

'She is so pretty... and she's not built like a toothpick either. ^-^ I hate really skinny girls. Such nice hair... and a silky voice... But I'm supposed to be protecting her... Man... oh well, not like she'd like me anyway...' Chouji thought to himself as he staired at the girl.

"Hey, are any of you hungry?" HoneySuckle asked. "We have pleanty, help yourself." Chouji wanted to get up but felt too embarassed. He was zoned out for a while...

*The Leaf Village: Raman Shop*

 

"So what are these girls like Kakashi?" Gai asked his rival. "I here that they are very beautiful..."

"Gai... I worry..."

"Why would you worry?"

"Because... the three young maidens... Lilly-Bell, Thistle, and HoneySuckle are just what Lee, Gaara, and Chouji need in their lives... Each of them are matched with one of the boys on the deepest of levels... That is why I worry..."
