If We Had A Different Life
~Neji's Pov~
Today was the my birthday. I was turning four and meeting my cousin. Uncle Hiashi was showing me his son, Hinata. I wonder why he has such a girly name? I asked a lot of people about him. But all they say is he is genius with Byakugan and very shy. My father, Hizashi, said we were going to ceremony room were a lot kids in the age of 2-4 go. We first went to the training room which a boy with indigo hair with his hair in a short, levelled hime-cut style and white eyes with a lavender tint was training with a boy that looked about fourteen. They were practicing the Gentle fist.
"Hello, Hizashi. I see Hinata is still training with Taro." My father said to his twin who was my uncle Hiashi. Both of the Hyuga kids were evenly matched until Hinata looked at his father and Uncle Hizashi nodded at when Hinata started to attack in incredible speed. He started to use Gentle fist on the older boys arms. Until his hand stopped in front of the boy's heart. Taro looked like he wanted to dodge but he couldn't move his hands. Hinata let his hand down and got out of his stance.
My cousin then took Taro's hand lifted up his black sleeve. Then he lifted it, and showed all Taro's chakra points were showing in a red color.
"I see, she can already take down Taro. How is his byakugan?" My father asked his brother.
"Hinata use your byakugan and tell us how far you see." Uncle told his eldest son. My younger cousin nodded and did the hand signs for the Hyuga kekkei genkai. His byakugan was activated as he looked towards the direction towards the other side of the village.
He deactivated to look at my father,"The Uchiha district, Hizashi-sama." He bowed his head at my father. This shocked my father and me, I was barely able to see a mile out of the Hyuga compound and he was able to see all the way to the Uchiha's which was all the to the other side of the village.
"This is proof enough that you will be my son's guardian. Do you accept this Hinata?" My dad had a proud smile while talking to my cousin.
"I will protect the heir with my life and vow to get stronger in order to keep your son safe, Hizashi-sama." Hinata said as he stood up and showed his face that reminded me of a girl's.
"Then he is ready for the seal," My father said as he began to leave. I was going to go with him but was stopped by my uncle.
"I believe you shouldn't go, Neji-sama. Your father wouldn't want you to see what he is going to do." Hinata followed my father out the shoji door. I stayed behind with my uncle.
"Uncle, why is Hinata willing to die to keep mine safe?" I asked my uncle as I stared at the door.
"It's a simple answer. Hinata knows the duty of the branch family. He would also put other people before him even if they aren't from the main family. If you two would to battle, Hinata would surrender to you or forfeit it. He knows that he would have to harm you since he is very advanced for his age. Even if it would dishonor him to surrender to anyone, he cares about everyone even an enemy."
"Then why does he train if he doesn't like harming people?"
"Hinata believes it's his duty to protect the entire clan, he believes that as a shinobi he would be able to do a better job to protect everyone. He says he doesn't care if he has to go through pain everyday in order to protect those who are precious to him. He even saved one of the Uchiha heirs a few weeks back. The boy was drowning in the river that went through the Uchiha compound. Hinata and I were there to talk to the head of the clan. Hinata was outside when he saw the boy. He ended up saving the kid's life."
When he finished the story father came back with Hinata. Something was different, my cousin's eyes looked scared but his face showed no emotion as if he did something wrong he would be punished.
