Title: The Hyuugas
Author: (Shapeshifter)Bergy
The Hyuugas had always been weak; at least that's what Gi had thought on a daily basis. It wasn't even their fighting style that made them so. It was their arrogance. They were never a threat, Gimansha had always thought as she strolled through Konoha on her visiting trips. One her rounds, she would stand outside the Hyuuga Compound, glancing through the main gates to watch any quarrels that might be happening at the moment.
A sneer crossed her as she watched them, every time. They were so clean, and perfect. Flawless in almost every aspect. But why did they crave much more than perfection? The scruffy woman would always spit into the alabaster setting before continuing her walk.
Gi never actually thought she would have ever gotten the chance to do what she had been doing for the past few minutes. So, these people weren't white all the way through. Dark red mush, almost black, flowed across her hands and through her clawed fingers 'till the blood soaked the wooden floors of the mansion. So far, only three of these perfect people had tried to defend themselves against her, and all had fallen.
Power welled up in her chest, intoxicating her and suffocating her all the same.
She would be reaching her target, soon. Not soon enough for her to be pleased, but soon.
Her claws ripped a door, breaking a wood frame and tearing the papery screen. Her pale eyes flickered and she launched into the room. Empty. Scowling, she had turned and exited the room again.
A small child was crying somewhere in the vicinity. A mother was telling her children flee. The sound of entrails slapping against walls and floors and the smell of blood coating everything was even more intoxicating. Now she was stumbling like a drunk with a knife, but without the knife.
She saw red, and tasted it too. Something hit her side, and she lurched forwards, breaking through another door and staggering into the room. Blood was smeared across her face and neck, and her clothing, and most every part of her body now. Apparently, someone had stuck a kunai in her side at one point.
She felt the metal object and pulled it out, tossing it away from her before glancing around. Her target stood in the room, staring bleary eyed at the battered body of another Hyuuga that had been kicked into the room along with the staggering threat. A door barred off escape, and then the power clicked off.

Hinata looked at her cousin; her pale face was smeared with blood, just like Nejis, and her clothing was torn.
"N-Neji-nii-san…? W-what is going to h-happen now?" She stuttered softly. Despite the grudge Neji held against his cousin, he held her up and against him as they staggered away from the bloody Hyuuga Compound. A muffled scream echoed out from the building, and then a howl, and then silence.
"We leave and see what Tsunade-sama does." Was the reply.
