Okay, I was hit with an idea for this fiction awhile back, so I guess that now I finally have an idea of where I want it to go. BEWARE: May become a songfic for a chapter or two later on.

Hinata tried desperately to keep up with her teammates as they struggled to stay in control of their C-gone-A rank mission. "C RANK!!" Yelled Kiba, bleeding heavily from a kunai slash on his forearm, "Well it bloody isn't anymore!!"

"Keep running, you...darn dog!!!" Shino huffed out between heaving breaths. Neither of their animal counterparts was of any use against the enemy they had no idea they were going to face.

Hinata wondered briefly how their simple escort mission had gone so wrong. Their client was modest enough, just needing an escort to an unimportant village not far from Konoha, but apparently he forgot to mention that he was carrying some very valuable pieces of weaponry and jutsu scrolls on him, making him a prime target for major ninja criminals. Kurenai-sensei had tried her best to get her students out of harms way by distracting the enemy, giving the three explicit orders to return as fast as possible to Konoha and get help.

Leading to their present situation. Running away, without their sensei, and quite possibly not having one anymore. "Maybe...we...should take a small break?" Hinata wheezed, slowing to a jog, before all but collapsing onto a fallen log in the path.

"C'mon, Hinata! Konoha is only a little farther, we can make it in maybe five minutes." Shino said, breathing hard before hissing in pain.

"Y-you're hurt!" Hinata cried, "Is it from that punch you took for me?" she asked worriedly, attempting to step forward and check his wound.

She never made it past her third step toward him.

"Sunpou no jutsu!!" Hinata spun around just in time to see a tidal wave of black electric current cutting though the air engulf her in its inky depths.

"HINATA!!"

Hinata was floating groggily in unfathomable space. It was like she was wrapped in the navy black of the frozen midnight sky. She was so cold, and so warm. Half delirious, she drifted in the strange place without gravity, content to let her pains fade in the darkness. But, a flickering pink/gray light, growing by the moment, rudely interrupted her bout of nothing. Only just realizing what it was going to do, Hinata had no time to try to escape it's suction, and next she knew, the void of space was gone, and she was somewhere else entirely.

That's the prologue. Confused as to what sunpou may mean? Well, it's not exact, I suppose, I used an electronic translator, but it's meant to mean dimension. If that gives you any clues as to what's happened to poor Hinata-chan. I guess you'll find out next chapter, ne?
