Hiashi Hyuga is dead. Now, as the rightful heir to the Hyuga clan, Hinata has to lead. The clan is counting on her, but even so, she refuses to do it alone.
It was a sad day in Konohagakure. The Village's eldest clan, the Hyugas, were having a funeral for their leader, Lord Hiashi Hyuga. The entire village was invited, but no one took it as hard as Hiashi's two daughters, Hinata and Hanabi Hyuga. At the commemoration stone, Hinata stood near the front, holding her younger sisters hand, trying hard not to cry, but she couldn't help that a few tears slid down her face. Next to her were some of her friends who went to the Academy with her. On her right was Kiba Inuzuka, and next to him was Shino Aburame. She considered them some of her closest friends and teammates. She held her sisters hand tightly and hoped that she wouldn't cry. She bent down and whispered something to her sister. Hanabi nodded and kept quiet for the rest of the ceremony. They both looked at the speaker, which was the Lady Hokage, describing how the Hyugas were the most noble of all the clans and how she was sad to see their leader go.
'You were about to accept me as a true shinobi, weren't you, Father?' She fought the flowing stream of tears that were threatening to fall. Little did she know that a certain blond was watching her, even from another section of the crowd. He continued to look at her pale face, watching as she fought her tears. He knew he couldn't do anything for her, yet he felt as though he wanted to ease her pain, if by only a little. Sure, he has become closer with the Hyuga since he came back, but he knew she still had troubles of her own. Things she couldn't deal with in front of him. This was a prime example, and he knew that she was going to deal with this for the rest of her life. Just as he was about to sneak over, the girl next to him grabbed his arm, forcing him to stay put. He looked questionably a her, but all she could do was shake her head. He looked over to where the Hyuga was and sighed in defeat.
'Maybe later, Hinata-chan.' He whispered to himself.
Not much of a beginning, but I'm working on it. If you have any ideas that you guys would like me to inject into the storyline, don't hesitate to click 'Submit Review' and jot down your ideas. I'll see where they'll fit in the story, and if I find a good place for them, you'll all know. Anyways, JA NE until next time!
