Chapter1
'I'm tired of being mistreated!' Hinata thought to herself, though she'd never say it out loud. She deactivated her Byaakugan and started picking up the remaining kunai around her training ground.
She trained alone today. Both of her teammates, Kiba and Shino, were out today. Kiba had to take Akamaru to vet, and Shino had a mission with his father in the Hidden Mist Village.
Every day it was the same thing. Hinata would train her heart out just to make her father happy. Too bad her hard work is a waste of time, because her father, Hiashi-san, never even to bothered to look in her direction. Unless she did something disgraceful, then she had his full attention.
'Luckily I have school tomorrow, so I won't have to deal with father as much.' It was true. Usually, most kids in Konoha couldn't stand school, but not Hinata. She loved it so much; she would offer to stay after school to tutor or would stay at the library. She'd do anything to stay away from Hiashi-san.
After an hour, having finished with her training for the summer, she noticed a familiar figure in the distance.
"Hey Hina," Sakura greeted, "How you've been?"
"I'm g-good, just a little tired from training," Hinata said.
"You ready for school tomorrow? I think this school year will be better than last year, what do you think?" Sakura asked without catching her breath.
"I'm so ready for school. I think this year will be awesome." Hinata said without stuttering. She doesn't stutter when she's confident about something.
"It better be," Sakura said with a giggle.
"As long as I have you on my side, what could possibly go wrong?" Hinata found she was most secure with Sakura. There weren't many in school that understood what it meant to be the underdog, although Sakura was good in almost every subject. Hinata could clearly remember the day they met. When Ino stole Hinata's favorite teddy bear.
Flash Back:
It was the first day of 1st grade and Hinata was scared she wasn't going to make any friends. But she remembered what her mother said before she dropped her off.
'Don't worry Hina baby, your true friend will come when the time is right. I bet he or she will be the first one to say hi to you on your first day.' Her mother smiled sweetly at her daughter.
'Wh-what i-if e-everyone hate-hates me?' Hinata cried out.
'Don't say that,' her mother warned in a kind way 'Nobody could hate such a sweetheart like you.' Then her mother kissed her on her forehead before she turned to leave.
'Good luck sweetie, mommy loves you dearly,' she said as she blew a kiss and left.
Hinata was scared out of her mind. She looked at the other children around her.
The classroom was normal sized, not too huge and not too tiny; it was the perfect size. The tables were rows of four with three tables in each row. Each table was rectangular shaped and fitted for three students. On the wall, were assignments of students that had received 'Good Job!' or 'Excellent Work' or smiley faces on the paper.
Very few children were sitting at their desk. The majority of them were either outside or on the floor playing with toys.
She noticed a blond girl with beautiful blue eyes. She looked really sweet so Hinata decided to talk to her first.
'H-hi I-I'm H-Hinata' Hinata said quietly through the noise of the other kids who were playing more obnoxiously then necessary.
'Let me see that bear!' the blond girl yelled, even though Hinata was right in front of her.
'W-w-why?' Hinata asked, now unsure about whether or not to befriend this girl. She was kind of scaring Hinata.
'Because it's cute and I want it!' the blond shrieked.
'N-n-n-n-o!' Hinata tried to yell, but it sounded more like a squeak.
'Give it to me now!!' the blond yelled again, tugging on the bear.
'Shut up you big-mouth meanie!' Hinata squeaked, pulling back.
'Fine have your stupid bear!' The blond pushed the bear towards Hinata hard enough to make her fall and hit her head on the desk behind her. Interrupting whoever was behind the desk and making things worse.
'Hey! You ruined my picture!' said a girl with short pinkish-red hair wearing a black beanie (aka Tayuya), pointing to her badly drawn flower.
'Yea! You messed up my tower too!' said another girl with blond hair pulled into four ponytails, two in front two in the back (aka Temari), pointing down to her now fallen stacks of blocks.
The two girls got up from their seats to trap Hinata in. Ino, Temari, and Tayuya were standing together forming a triangle with Hinata in the middle.
Hinata started to cry and ran out the classroom.
'That's what you get!' Ino yelled back at her.
'Shut up pig!' Sakura yelled.
'Why don't you make me big head?!' Ino yelled back.
Sakura, who had watched the whole scene, ran out the classroom when class was about to start to see if Hinata was okay.
Sakura searched around the swings and jungle gym to find her sitting in a batch of sun flowers in the school garden.
'Are you okay?' Sakura asked, patting on Hinata back for comfort.
'N-n-n-no!' Hinata sobbed. 'All I wanted to do was make a friend' she thought.
'What's your name?' Sakura asked, still patting Hinata's back.
'H-h-hinat-ta," Hinata said through her tears.
'Well, I'm Sakura. Nice to meet you.' Sakura said, kindly introducing herself
'W-why are y-you h-here?' Hinata was curious, crying less.
'Because I wanted to make sure you were okay, silly,' Sakura giggled.
'Oh. W-well I'm o-OK n-now. t-thank y-you.' Hinata smiled and got up from the flower patch, realizing she squashed some while she was sitting and turned pink from embarrassment. Sakura just giggled at her.
'Your welcome, and don't worry about the flowers. We'll just say one of the boys did it,' said Sakura with a pleasant smile.
'Alright!' Hinata laughed as she ran back to class with Sakura
'Maybe this year would be better with Sakura-chan around' Hinata thought.
Sakura and Hinata walked back to class when the bell had just rung. The classroom was filled when Hinata and Sakura arrived, so they took a seat in the remaining desk in the back corner.
There was one boy sitting at the desk. The boy had raven colored hair (which was shaped like a rear end of a duck) and deep black eyes. He also had a creamy ivory skin color. His hands were folded up to his mouth, making him look like he was concentrating very hard. He didn't even bother to introduce himself when Sakura and Hinata sat next him.
End of Flashback
After talking with Sakura, Hinata decided to go home. The sun was starting to set and she wanted to take a nice bubble-bath and rest for the night.
When she walked into the Hyuuga compound, she glanced at all the other children. There were so many white-eyed figures similar to Hinata. While she was walking to her house, she saw how the parents trained their soon-to-be-ninjas; mothers and daughters picking flowers together, and younger and older sibilings chasing after each other, all of them filled with so much laughter.
Kami knows how much she wished to have had a happy childhood like that. Her mother died during a mission when she was eight. Neji left to train with Gai-sensei, TenTen, and Lee. And of course her loving father, who didn't even bother with her, only paid attention to her younger sibiling, Hanabi.
When she finally made it home, she was searching deep in her pockets to find her keys to the house. When she finally found her keys and unlocked the door, she walked inside and looked at her sparkling clean house. She always admired her home, how the ancient Japanese furniture went so well with the floral paintings on the wall.
'So peaceful...'Hinata thought. Even though she had been living there for years, she would never get over how beautiful her house is.
After a while of admiring, she noticed her little sister on the floor listening to her green nano-ipod and reading one of her many novels. Hanabi looked occupied, so Hinata decided to leave her alone and go to her room to give take that bath she promised herself.
Before she went to her room, she walked down the hall on the second floor. She looked from left to right, glancing at the different portraits of her family members. At the far end of the hallway to the left was Hinata's room. She was anticipating on finally being able to relax.
When she got to her room, it was a little messier than she remembered. She was too tired to worry about it at the moment. 'I'll clean it when I get home from school tomorrow.' Hinata thought lazily. She grabbed a set of pajamas from her dresser, and went inside her bathroom.
*~*~*~*~*
Hinata got out of the bathroom and straightened up her room a little. It still wasn't completely clean but she wanted to get the main stuff out of the way.
She laid herself down on her bed and grabbed her cell phone to call Sakura before she was out for night. After a few rings her friend finally answered.
"Hey Hina-chan," Sakura answered happily.
"Hey Saku-chan," Hinata replied with a yawn. "Do you know what you're gonna wear for school tomorrow?"
"Of course!" Sakura loved clothes so much. She had a special outfit for weekdays, weekends, even seasonal (from winter to spring).
"But I definitely know what you're wearing tomorrow!"
"And what would that be?" Hinata was very amused and curious.
"Nothing loose, dull, or looking like it's about to fall off of you, or making you look homeless."
"How do you know I would be wearing such things?"
"Because, I will be coming over early in the morning to make sure you won't."
"Is that right?" Hinata was highly amused, but wouldn't be surprised if her best friend came at 5:00 in the morning just to make sure she looked decent.
"Yup! Hina, I don't know why you wear such hideous things. You have an amazing body. Heck! Better looking than most women in Konoha. Don't be afraid to show your curves."
"Thanks, Saku, but I just don't like people staring at me, especially boys. I'm not gay or anything, it's just how they look when they see me. It scares me." Hinata explained.
"I understand, but you're gonna have to deal with it some time. Hina, your 16, I think it's time." Sakura said. "Don't worry I'm not gonna make you wear anything skin tight. Just something cute, simple, and won't make you look like you gained 50 pounds."
"Ok. Since you put it that way…"
"Great! Oh! And I also heard from Kimiko that we're gonna have a lot of new students this year."
"Really? How does she know?" Hinata asked.
Hinata and Sakura were freshmen when they had met Kimiko in Kyaano High. Kimiko was 2 years older than them. Kimiko already graduated from Kyaano High and got accepted to Suna University. She missed her friends so much that she was able to get a job at the high school over the summer so she could still see her friends.
"While Tsunade was out of her office, Kimiko was able to sneak in and log in to her computer, and checked for all the new students that just got accepted to Kyaano High. She said there are a lot of new kids, so this year will definitely be interesting." Sakura said. Hinata could tell she had a mischievous grin on her face.
"Do you think anybody from Konoha Elementary would come back?"
"Honestly, I'm not sure. Maybe Naruto and Sasuke, but other than those two, I don't know."
"Do you think Tayuya, Temari, and Ino might return?" Hinata shuddered at the thought.
"Who cares? As long as they don't mess with us, we won't mess with them. Simple as that."
"Y-yea you're right."
"Whatever. Anyway I need my beauty sleep, so I'll see you in the morning. Night!" Sakura said before she hung up.
'I want to believe Sakura, but I still don't trust those girls. They bully me whenever they have the opportunity. I'm still keeping my guard up.' Hinata tried desperately to believe her friend's words, but visions of Ino, Tayuya, and Temari punching and kicking Hinata kept repeating inside her mind.
She decided to ignore her train of thoughts and went to sleep.
