Madara slid his hand across the wall as he fallowed the wall over to the window. Zetsu, fully grown back body, watched like always as Madara planned and schemed for his next attack. The area they were located was dark and no sound came from the outside or anything located in the room. As Madara walked the only sound was the sound of Madara's feet echoing off the walls. Out the window the only thing that could be seen was a cloudy sky. Madara turned his head to look at Zetsu with a glowing red Sharigan from the only hole in his mask. The mask that was used to not only trick the enemy into not knowing his true identity but most of the Akatsuki who were not dead. Madara held his hand out in front of him and turned back to the window.
"I think it's time to take what is rightfully mine." A ball of light started to focus in his hand and pulse like a heart beat and as if it lived. "Oh? You don't want to listen to my orders?" Madara's sharigan started to spin and the pulse died down until it finally stopped. "Good. Now Go." Madara raised his hand up to the little light that shined through the window. The light increased in strength and brightness until the sound of bricks and glass crashing to the floor filled the room. Wind rushed into the small room making Madara's red and black cape blow behind him. Madara's hand was still raised toward the giant hole in the wall where the window had been but the light had disappeared. Madara's right hand slowly lowered to rest by his side. "Bring me back my Nine-Tails."
Hinata leaned her back against a tree panting and face covered in sweat from training so hard and alone. The training grounds were one of the last places left intact after the battle with Pein and Konan. Hinata had been left alone much after Naruto and a few others took off to go to the Iron Country. Hinata had been feeling like a useless part of the group since what had happened with Pein, though she had already felt like that before this time it was much worse. She had failed to protect Naruto by doing a foolish act of courage to hopefully at least by Naruto enough time to do something. Hinata looked down at her feet with a look of pain. Naruto did do something; he transformed into the eight tailed form of the Kyuubi because she was almost killed, he could have been lost forever because of her, but if she didn't jump in, would he of been killed anyway? Hinata slid down the tree and hugged her knees to her chest as she thought about her feelings for Naruto.
Naruto-kun…She thought back to the times she watched the rejected boy train in the academy and always saying he was going to be better then them all and be Hokage. Why…why did you work so hard Naruto? Is it because you wished to be accepted, like me? Hinata's eyes closed to half way. She was always the weak one of the group and this, separated her from the others. I was never strong enough Naruto. But I've always tried my best, to try and impress you. Hinata stared at here legs and tears threatened to fall from her white pupil eyes. She swallowed the lump in her throat and looked up at the sky. "No I can't cry. I have to be strong and continue to get stronger." A crash made Hinata jump up and look around confused. "What was that?" There was another loud crash and Hinata got into her Gentle Fist searching the shadowy forest around here. "Who's there?"
Red eyes appeared directly in front of her floating in the darkness. Hinata tightened her muscles and moved her feet to get ready to dodge any attack. Help me…The voice of a woman sounded in her head. Hinata looked around then back at the eyes. "Help…you?" The red eyes disappeared and a beam of light shot out of the darkness and crashed into Hinata's body. Hinata screamed from the pain, feeling like hundreds of volts of electricity was shooting through her body. Hinata's body froze and then she tilted her head up to reveal her eyes glowed a dark blood red similar to the eyes that had been watching her. A dark laugh echoed in her head. Listen to my orders minion. For now you will remain dormant inside this girl's mind until your chance to take the Nine-Tail arises. Then bring the boy to me. The redness in Hinata's eyes faded and returned back into her white pupil original. Feeling all her energy gone she crashed to the ground passed out.
Hinata's eyes opened and looked around the training ground where she had passed out. Sitting up she placed a hand on her aching head. "Did I pass out during training?" Looking around she saw the sun was yet to set but soon would be. Standing up she noticed every muscle in her body ached as if she had been training for days without end, but nothing compared to the pain she felt in her head. Rubbing her head slightly she checked for any spots she might of hit her head, for that could be the only reason for such a powerful headache but she found nothing. Picking up the several equipment she had used for training she quickly made her way back to the tents where she stayed until there mansion would be fixed again.
When she arrived back at the tent her father greeted her at the entrance. "Welcome back Hinata." Hinata didn't look her father in the face; since she tried rescuing Naruto her father had been treating her like a guest from a enemy clan rather then his own daughter. "Hello father." She slipped past him and into the tent even though she could feel his eyes fallow her the entire way in. When did she get so brave? Hinata sat down at her instructed bed and kicked off her shoes. Reaching up to rub her neck, she found most of the pain in her head was focused on a spot just below her ear then spread out a crossed her entire head. Maybe she strained her neck doing a technique; either way she should be better tomorrow. She took a hold of the zipper that held her coat closed and quickly pulled it down then took the jacket off revealing her black shirt underneath. She didn't often take off her jacket even in warm weather because she thought her body better covered up but for some reason she felt uncomfortable with it on at the moment and let it slip off and layed it folded up next to her shoes. Hinata stretched out her arms letting the soar muscles crack. Letting out a yawn she put one of her hands against her mouth, when she was done yawning as she pulled her hand away one of her fingers nipped against a sharp edge of one of her teeth. She winced and looked at the bleeding finger confused. Had her teeth always been that sharp? She put the finger in her mouth and sucked on it out of instincts to try and stop the small pain the cut gave her. As the blood touched her tongue her eyes closed and she leaned back against the tent wall taking in the taste and sucking on her finger harder. Naruto, I wonder where you are right now. In her mind Hinata pictured Naruto walk into the tent and crawl into her bed. The thought allowed a moan to escape her lips around the finger in her mouth. The sound of her father's voice brought her back to reality.
"Hinata, are you heading to bed now?" Hinata's father had stuck his head into the tent and looked at her. Hinata pulled the finger out of her mouth a blush quiet clear a crossed her face. "Y..yes father. I had trained all day and I am excused." She noticed her father look her over and she knew she was as good as caught because of her face being so red. "Well that explains why your face is so red. Sleep well then." He slipped back out the tent flap. Letting out the breath she had been holding Hinata layed down facing the tent wall. It's not often she had THAT type of thoughts. Rolling her tongue a crossed her teeth some were actually sharper, how strange. Hinata rubbed her head against the pillow and allowed her eyes to drift closed to start her dreams. She couldn't wait for her dreams; she had a dream about her and Naruto being together, maybe tonight it will continue.
Hinata found herself floating in nothing but blackness. Looking around confused as to why she was here. "Is this a dream?" Her voice echoed around the vast nothingness. Help me…A woman's voice filled the area around her. The voice sounded beautiful and peaceful, but the urgency and need behind the voice sounded sad. "Who are you? Help you? Help you how?" Hinata looked around the black of nothingness in a attempt to find the source of the voice. Save me, from the vial one. He's cruel and dark, we do not wish to be with him, but we most. Hinata didn't know what the woman meant by the vial one but she knew this woman, whoever she was, needed her help. "Who is the vial one? Why can't you leave?" A ball of light appeared in front of Hinata and she looked at it, the light shining in her eyes. The Vial one seeks power. He's using us to get what he wants. He controls us with evil power and we can't resist. Hinata felt a strong urge to reach out and touch the ball of light but resisted it. "What does he seek?" The ball of light started pulsing with what felt like warmth; the warmth touched her cheek and made her feel a little tingle on her skin. The boy you love…A gasp escaped Hinata's mouth…He comes now to take control of me once again. Hinata's eyes widen and reached out to try and take a hold of the orb of light. "Wait, how do I save you? How do I save Naruto?!" The ball of light disappeared into the darkness as if it was swallowed and the sound of a evil laugh filled the area as Hinata was swallowed by the darkness once again.
Hinata shot up in her bed panting heavily from the horrible nightmare she just had. Placing a hand on her neck, the spot ached along with her head even more now. "It was just a nightmare." Her hair stuck to her neck and forehead and her shirt stuck to her chest from all the sweat that covered her. Sliding her legs off the side of the bed she slipped on her shoes and quickly made her way out of the tent without waking any of the other Hyuugas. What Hinata hadn't noticed was the condition in which she left her pillow. On the underside of her pillow were four tear holes; from the look of it some type of animal tore it open with it's claws, the feather's littered her bed and covered the floor. Hinata walked silently through the camp; though many people were still awake she didn't want to draw any attention to herself. The stars lit the sky with not a single cloud to hid them. It was the night of the new moon so the stars were even easier to see tonight. Deciding to keep herself distracted for a couple minutes she looked at the finger she had cut but found no mark of any kind that showed there had been a cut there. Looking confused for a minute Hinata pushed the thought away and figured it was a trick of the dark.
Hinata stopped in front of the few remaining buildings left of the Hyuuga mansion. The mansion had been on the edge of the destruction so only the main buildings were destroyed while a few minor buildings were barley touched. Hinata walked in and went straight to there hot springs they had in the center; she needed a bath and the hot springs were perfect. Sitting on one of the decorative large boulders next to the hot springs she slipped off her shoes and then the rest of her clothes before slipping into the warm water. She let out a sigh of relief as the warm water was good for relaxing her soar muscles. She sank down into the water so the water was up into her chin. "It feels good to finally get rid of all that sweat." Hinata brushed her fingers through her hair loosening it up because she didn't have a brush on hand.
Leaning back against one of the rock walls of the spring she looked up at the perfect view that this spot gave her. The stars shined brightly, flickering in the night sky from billions on billions of miles away. Coming back to earth Hinata felt up and down her arms. To Hinata her arms never felt smooth; to her there wasn't much good at all on her body. What she would give for a little shampoo or even some soap. Her shampoo was probably under a mile of rubble somewhere around here or maybe it was blown miles and miles away, she guessed she would just have to wait. She lowered farther into the water so it was up to her nose and she blew bubbles. I wonder when everyone will be back…Hinata raised her head long enough to take a deep breath then dived deep into the water. Closing her eyes she swam through the warm water feeling the water move around her skin. After about a minute she decided to go back to the top even though her lungs didn't seem to think it was time. Once breaking the surface she let out the air she had been holding and open her eyes.
Hinata nearly jumped out of her skin at seeing another girl here. She took a step back but then regained herself. She was staring at a girl about her age, but had long white as snow hair and feline like eyes. Her eyes seemed strange to Hinata but she pushed the thought away; it was rude to judge people by there looks, she knew that to well. The girl watched Hinata as much as she watched her and held the same smile. "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know there was anybody else here. Actually your not allowed here, this is Hyuuga grounds after all sorry." Hinata looked confused at the girl as she seemed to mimic what she said without saying anything as she spoke. Hinata took a couple steps forward and the girl fallowed her example. Reaching out a shaking hand towards the girl, the girl raised a hand in respond to touch her hand against Hinata's. The girl's nails seemed longer then usual and more pointy which went well with her eyes and pointy teeth. As Hinata's hand came in contact with the girl she first noticed how solid and cold the girl's finger tip felt; which made her realize that this wasn't a girl. Hinata's body shook as she stared at the reflection of herself in the mirror. Every feature of her was the same and she hadn't noticed, the only difference was her hair, eyes, teeth and nails.
Letting out a loud shriek of terror Hinata fell to her knees and looked at the sharp nails on her hands. Switching to her hair she pulled it around her back and examined the pure white hair. This isn't her hair, this can't be. "What's happening to me?" He stuck a finger in her mouth and felt up and down the sharp teeth like fangs. Her entire body was shaking and she got up running away from the mirror and through the white springs to the other side. Leaving her clothes behind she ran down the non-destroyed section of the Hyuuga section. Her claw like hands covered her crying face until she came to the door she was so use to opening. Opening it quickly it slammed hard almost breaking off and she ran and dived into her bed. Holding the pillow tightly against her body she sobbed out of fear of what was happening to her. "What is happening?!?"
