The Words I Never Thought I'd Have The Chance To Say : Chapter 1
"THEIF! Stop!" yelled one of the two ninja as they chased a thief down the streets of Konoha. Ignoring the shouts of protests the thief continued running until he was out of the village where the ninja stopped following and turned around to go report the incident to the Hokage.

" Hyuuga Neji, Hyuuga Hinata, I have a new mission for you" Tsunade said sternly as she glanced over at the two ninja on her left that had barged into her office moments ago.
"Moments ago we had a thief break into the record room and stole some of Konoha's top secret military documents... seeing how you two are the only ninja free for a mission you will have to go. Your mission is to retrieve the stolen documents. Once some of the other ninja return from their mission, I will send them out to reinforce you incase any dilemmas occur. Since we don't know the attack strength of the thief, be on your guard. Please depart from the village as soon as you can. Do you have any questions?" Tsunade ended and she turned her head towards the two Hyuuga's standing in front of her.
"No" they both responded.
"Okay then... be on you way" the Hokage said as she pointed at the door. Almost immediately Neji and Hinata departed. Both rushed home and packed before meeting in the entrance of the Hyuuga mansion.
"You ready" Neji asked as Hinata ran down hallway towards the entrance.
"Yes" she replied back softly as she slipped on her shoes. Both quickly ran out of the village in search of the thief. Neji activated his Byakukan, followed by Hinata who did the same. They scouted the area looking for any traps or possible ambushes. Neji focused ahead to see a small figure in black clothing about 50 meters ahead.
"I think I see him" Neji said at Hinata. Both picked up there pace to catch him. Neji was the first to attack by taking three shuriken and throwing them hard towards the figure. The thief caught there movements and quickly diverted to the left into the bushes to dodge the attack. Hinata threw a kunai into the bush, causing the enemy to jump into the clearing.
"My my my... what do we have here" the criminal said staring at the two Hyuuga's. Almost instantly Neji jumped into action, charging directly towards.
"Jyuken!" Neji said, as the palm of his hand slammed into the chest of the thief.
Meanwhile, Hinata was vigilantly scanning the area using her Byakugan. Her eyes landed on an outline of a human figure high in the trees above the clearing. She then quickly looked back down at the enemy Neji was attacking. She gasped loudly as she connected the dots.
"Neji! Stop! It's a trap!" Hinata shouted. Almost immediately the person he was fighting exploded, sending Neji flying backwards into a tree. Falling to the ground, unconscious. Hinata jumped down off the branch she was standing on, landing beside Neji, to aid him with any injuries. She quickly took out her medical kit and tended to some of the serious wounds.
"Stupid genin" the attacker said as he jumped out of the tree landing firmly on the ground a few yards away from Neji and Hinata.
"I'll finish this off quickly, I have to be on my way" he said as he clasped his hands together, focusing his chakra.
"Bakuretsu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu" (A Ninjutsu technique where the ninja creates a suicidal shadow clone. After creating it, the ninja can cause the clone to remotely detonate and explode in combat, causing a large amount of damage to anyone caught in the blast). A shadow clone appeared and darted towards the two Konoha ninja. Hinata quickly wrapped her around Neji, pulling them both out of reach of the shadow clone, momentary. The shadow clone repeatedly chased them around trying to get close enough to them to finish them off with one blow. Hinata desperately tried to create as much distance between them that she could manage, but she quickly grew tired and her pace slowly died.
"You can't run away forever" the thief called out, sounding agitated and impatient. By now the sun was setting not leaving very much time for traveling, since it was dangerous to travel at night.
"I don't know how much longer I can go on... I need to think of something..." Hinata thought desperately as she looked around at her surroundings looking for an opportunity. While she was looking for a break she failed to notice that the shadow clone was right in front of her. She continued running until she collided with him causing all of them to fall off the tree branch... while in mid air the shadow clone exploded causing Hinata and a unconscious Neji to be flung downward, hard into the ground. With a loud thud she was unconscious. The enemy took this opportunity to run off, not checking to see if they were alive or not.

"Hhhg" Neji murmured softly as he came to. He pushed himself to a sitting position with some difficulties, his eyes slowly came into focus to see his surroundings clearly. His eyes suddenly landed on Hinata. He slowly crawled over towards her to see if she was okay, unable to find strength in his legs to walk. Once he was close to her he grabbed her shoulders and gently tried to shake her awake. When he got no response he checked for her heart beat. He checked wrist and felt nothing, he then tried her neck and got a very faint pulse. He sighed in relief and went to stand up to go get the medical kit that she had left by the tree earlier when she was treating his wounds from the first blast. After much difficulty he had manage to stand up and make his way over to the medical kit. Bringing it back to the area where Hinata lay, he sat down and opened the kit grabbing ointments and bandages. He attended to her wounds first, cleaning the gash on her forehead and bandaging it well. He looked for any other bad lacerations and found a few. Once he was done dressing her wounds he turned his attention back to his own cuts and scrapes. After he was finished he noticed that Hinata was starting to stir.
"Neji-niisan...I...lo..." she mumbled, still sleeping. Neji looked down oddly at his cousin wondering what she was dreaming of. He gently tried to shake her awake once more. She slowly blinked open her eyes only to meet Neji's. She quickly sat upright, almost colliding into his head, wincing at the pain from her aching joints.
"You should take it easy for a bit" Neji said, as he supported her from falling back over.
"But the mission..." she said softly.
"Don't worry about it, it'll be pitch black soon and he'd (referring to the thief) probably stopped to set up camp since it's near impossible to travel at night. Besides that, were in no condition to fight." Neji said looking up at the darkening sky. Sighing Hinata looked around at her surroundings. Slowly she started to stand up but was held back by Neji.
"You rest, I'll set up the camp" he said standing up only to fall back down, coughing roughly.
"Neji-niisan!" Hinata said worriedly, as she watched him sprawled on the ground coughing uncontrollably. She quickly flipped him over to his back, hoping that it would help him. The coughing subsided and he slipped into a peaceful slumber. Sighing, Hinata pushed herself up onto her feet and set up the camp. Hours later Neji came to, feeling much better then he did previously. He looked around to see a dwindling fire. He pushed himself up on his elbows to get a better look at the area causing the sleeping bag on top of him to fall off him making the cold night air to come into contact with his exposed skin. He looked around looking for Hinata. His eyes landed on her dark figure leaned against a tree across from the fire. From a distance he could tell that she was sound asleep and shaking, probably from the cold. He slowly got up and went around the fire quietly, making sure not to wake her. He covered her with the sleeping bag that she had covered him with. After, he took a few sticks a wood from the pile next to the fire and chucking them into the fire causing it to burst with new life. Neji sat down close to the fire, pulling his legs close to his chest and resting his head on his knees, adsorbing the warmth of the fire. About ten minutes later, Hinata woke from her slumber. Her eyes blinked a few times, adjusting to the lack of light. She slowly pushed herself out of the slouching position into an upright one causing the sleeping bag to make soft noises. Neji quickly snapped out of his tiredness and looked around for the cause of the noise only to realize that it was Hinata.
"I see you're awake..." he said softly, rubbing his eyes with one hand. Hinata nodded her head in response before fixing her eyes on the ground in front of her.
"Are you okay... you don't look to well" Neji said looking over at Hinata.
"I- I'm f-f-fine" she said softly, still staring at the ground.
"You don't sound very well" he pointed out.
"I'm fine" she said softly once again, yawning lightly.
"If you say so...but you should get a bit more rest before dawn" he said as he looked back down at the fire.
"So should you" she squeaked as she rested her head on the back of the tree closing her eyes. After a few moments of silence Hinata had drifted of to sleep quickly followed by Neji. The next morning Neji was the first to wake, still in the same sitting position as before. He glanced up at the still lightly darkened sky. Sighing he stood up and stretched, yawning in the process. After he was finished stretching he walked over to his knapsack, digging through it to find something to eat. His hand finally found the small box-like parcel grabbing it walking back over where Hinata was sleeping. He set the package down on ground and went over to Hinata side and gently woke her up.
"We should leave soon, if we want to try and catch up to him" he said as she opened her eyes. Slowly she came to and got up and stretched, feeling much better than before. She quickly rolled up her sleeping back and shoved it into her bag.

"You ready to go?" Neji asked after they had finished eating and packing up the medical supplies.
"Yes" she said softly as she pulled her knapsack onto her shoulders.
