This story is inspired in an idea I had for several months. I hope you enjoy it.
Flashback
"A-are you going to disappear forever Anbu-kun?" A shy 12-year-old Hyuga Hinata asked the mysterious Anbu who had a catlike mask.
"Hai Hina-chan." The Anbu answered.
"What about your other friend." Hinata asked almost teary eyed. "Will he disappear too?"
"I'm afraid so." The masked Anbu answered. "The Hokage gave us a very important mission."
"Take me with you!" The 12-year-old Hyuga heiress pleaded the Anbu. "I promise I will be good. Please don't let me stay with those people."
"I can't Hina-chan." The Anbu kneeled down in front of Hinata and cupped her face with his hands. "Just promise me that you will not use your new abilities unless it's absolutely necessary."
"Hai." Hinata said starting to cry.
"Good." The Anbu said wiping her tears. "Now close your eyes." Hinata closed her eyes and she felt warm lips on her forehead. When she opened her eyes, the Anbu was gone.
Chunin exams
"It's not over…" A struggling Hinata said to her cousin Neji.
"Acting tough is useless. You can barely stand. I can see that" Neji said full of hate. "From the time of your birth the responsibility of the Hyuga main house has been forced upon you. You have always hated yourself for your own weakness but people cannot change. That is destiny. There is no need to suffer anymore. Let it go!"
"That's not true brother Neji. Because I can see it." Hinata answered her cousin. "It's not me at all. The person lost and suffering within the destiny of the main and branch houses is you."
This last sentence ticked Neji and he went to attack his cousin Hinata. Hayate quickly went towards Neji to stop him and before the Hyuga prodigy could do something to his cousin, Kakashi, Gai, Kurenai and Hayate stopped him.
"Neji give it a rest." Gai said trying to calm down his student while he was holding him. "You gave me a warm promise not to lose your head over this main family stuff."
"Why do even the jounins jump in?" Neji said with the Byakugan still activated. "Oh, more special treatment for the main family."
At moment Hinata felt a strong pain in her stomach and collapsed when she closed her eyes, she fainted and her body became petals. The petals went to where the real Hinata was. Then she jumped and entered the fighting grounds. She looked scared but determined to win this fight.
"What the heck!" Neji said feeling angrier than before. "It was a stupid clone. Let me go!" He struggled to break free. "Let me go sensei. I need to finish this battle." Gai looked at the other jounin instructors and they let him go.
"Don't do anything stupid Neji." Gai said to his student seriously and left the fighting area.
Hiashi looked at the events with a frown, studying all the movements his nephew and daughter did.
"Come fight me coward." Neji said with Byakugan activated.
Hinata carefully studied every movement her cousin made and was careful to launch herself at him carelessly. She activated her Byakugan and studied the Hyuga prodigy's chakra system.
"Now you are confident." Neji said chuckling. "Let's see if that confidence can make up for your cowardice."
He got into the gentle fist stance and Hinata launched herself at him. Before he could do anything, she already disappeared from his view and appeared behind him. She managed to hit her cousin on his hips and his right arm. Neji quickly turned and hit both her arms. Then she distanced herself from her cousin to take a breath. She did a fire release and the Hyuga prodigy barely managed to avoid it. Afterwards Hinata started to feel drowsy and her cousin noticed it. Neji took advantage of the situation and launched towards his cousin. We he was almost near her, several things happened. Hinata's eyes started to change, he started to feel the effects of the hits Hinata managed to give him, which made him stop because of the pain he felt, and his uncle Hyuga Hiashi struck his daughter on the chest with the gentle fist technique.
Kurenai went to the aid of her student and other jounins put some distance between Hinata and her father.
"I advise you to go back to your seat Hiashi." Gai said reasoning with the Hyuga head. "The fight is between Neji and Hinata."
"Hinata." Hiashi said ignoring the copy nin and in an angry and disappointed tone.
"F-f-father?" They Hyuga heiress cowered in fear.
"You disappoint me." He said in a cold tone. "You are not worthy of being called a Hyuga anymore."
"W-w-w-what are y-y-you talking about?" Hinata asked.
"I'm banishing you." Hiashi stated. "You are no longer a Hyuga."
Hinata looked wide-eyed in shock and then she felt a pain in the stomach and fainted. Kurenai carried her student to the hospital but not before giving the Hyuga head a death glare.
I'm still deciding who to pair Hinata with (suggestions accepted).
Please leave reviews and comments (puppy face).
