I don't own. I was thinking about Hinata Hyuga when I heard this song. It seems to fit her perfectly, don't it?
Hinata held back her tears as she was again forced through the motions of her family's style. She was so tired of it. She contemplated her family and kept on coming back with the same thing. The Hyuga's were worse than trash. A sudden burst of pain on her face made her remember just who she was facing against. Her dear old dad.
I'm
tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost
under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put
under the pressure of walking in your shoes
"Hinata!
Focus! What the hell are you thinking about? How are you going to
ever accomplish anything in life?" He snickered. "You should be
grateful that you get to even be acknowledged by us. How is it that
you can be this weak and still manage to keep your title?"
(Caught
in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I
take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught
in the undertow)
"Wrong! That is not part of the style!
You cannot twist and pervert a century old style!" Hinata nodded
slowly, not even paying attention to her father anymore. The speeches
were always the same. Her mind drifted to Naruto and Kagome. With
them she had fun. A small smile graced her face as she remembered the
prank they had pulled recently. They had rigged their sensei's
house. When he had come for them half the day later, his gorgeous red
hair had been a fluorescent pink. A soft snicker escaped her. His
skin had also been green.
Chorus
I've become so numb I
can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm
becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like
you
"What the hell do you find funny?" Hinata grunted
as her father's foot connected with her stomach, throwing her
across the dojo. She stood up and slipped back into her stance. She
waited patiently for his attack. "Attack me Hina-chan." A smirk
found its way to her face. Her father gasped. She disappeared
suddenly. 'Well, no more Open-fist strike crap from me Daddy.'
She struck him in the back. The smirk widened when he collided with a
wall.
Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding
too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you
thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
"You
can't do that!" She smiled slightly. He leapt at her, intending
to punish her. She moved to the side, deactivating her Byakugan. She
slipped into a different stance, the one her and team 11 had created.
"What is that?" "Mine." She vanished again, leaving many of
the Hyuga's two houses in shock. Hiashi flew into another wall.
"It's mine Father." "You can't do this! This is grounds for
disownment!" The smile vanished and Hinata paused. Chorus
(Caught
in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I
take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught
in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can
take
Her father smiled in victory and her stomach curdled.
'I want…I want to rip that look off his face!' She was flung
backwards, colliding with a wall of weapons. They rained down on her.
Her father watched in shock as a kunai lodged itself into her back.
'That's the word for him. He's a backstabber!' She stood
shakily. "Hinata?" The smug voice was back. She looked around,
her pearl eyes landing on her cousin. He was shaking his head.
'Neji…' She shot him a grin. 'Team 11 is my only life now.
The Hyuga are worse than trash. They're traitors.' She gingerly
grabbed the hilt of the kunai before pulling it out and throwing it
away. A wide grin appeared on her face, almost menacing in its
brightness.
Chorus
I've become so numb I can't feel you
there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this
all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
"What
are you smiling at brat?" The dimples in her cheeks flashed into
existence and a chuckle escaped the heiress. "You." Her father
paused, confused. "All of you." She stood straight, summoning
ever last scrap of confidence that always seemed to desert in the
face of the Hyuga snobbery. "I am not fit for this family
Hiashi-sama." Her father grinned. "I disown myself. Does anyone
second my decision?" She turned to a smirking Neji. "I do."
"Wonderful!" She turned to her father. "No more of this Father.
I have one last request before I leave this house and my title
behind." "What?" She grinned at the iciness in his words.
Without a doubt, the Hyuga had lost. "I want Neji with me." He
frowned. Neji was an important asset in the household. "Fine. I
disown the both of you."
And I know
I may end up
failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone
disappointed in you
I've become so numb I can't
feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm
becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like
you
Chorus
I've
become so numb I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you
want me to be
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I'm
tired of being what you want me to be
Hinata thought back to her parting words with her father. "There are those in the shinobi world who do not deserve the title they are given. This household, both of them are one of those. The Hyuga are worse than trash in the way they live. They do not function as a team. They leave the weaker behind and betray each other. Do you want to be worse than trash?" Her father had froze up and slapped her. She had gotten to him. Neji shook her gently. "There are those in this world who are worse than trash. We are not." Their door flew open. "So, my house my rules. First things first." Kagome grinned. "There's a big Happy Disownment party raging downstairs and the stars aren't there! Get down there…now!" Neji grinned and hugged the petite girl. "Sure thing princess K." Hinata grinned at the blush over her friends face. Neji left the room. "Soooo, new family huh?" "Yea." "When can I expect nieces and nephews?" Hinata ran out the room before her friend could retaliate. "When I see blondes running around with pearl eyes!" Hinata blushed and looked up to see Kagome. "Brat!" "Same to you!"
There are those who are worse than trash…I refuse to be in that category.
