In order to become stronger

1. The promise

"Hah, hah, hah!" Hinata says exhausted. She has trained the whole afternoon at the wood place she like to train her taijutsu at. Her personal bark that she hits on is full of her blood and sweat. Just look at that, and you see how much that girl train.

Hinata took a pause and watch when the sun set down. She is dissatisfied with her improvement. Hinata has made a promise to herself to Naruto-kun that she is going to become stronger. It has already went two months since Naruto left with Master Jiraiya to train. Even if Hinata trains twice more than usual and her Father and Neji nii-san help her, Hinata still thinks that she improve rather slow.

Hinata sighs. Truly, she is really happy that her father finally seems to accept her and let her train with Neji nii-san and himself, but... She knows that her father still thinks she improve slower than anybody else, even if he values her effort.

Hinata feels the panic rise upon her. She absolutely don't want her father to abandon her once again, because she is too useless. It really stress Hinata to the max and lately she seems turn out. Her father has shown her and Neji the Hyuuga's house 'Eight Trigrams Mountain Crusher'. Neji, as expect of a genius has master it almost immediately. Hinata on the other hand, still struggled with it. Hinata has barely master the 'Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm', so this more powerful new taijutsu was still too hard for her. Yesterday when her father saw her train he has sighed and Hinata's heart has skip.

The other Konoha 11 were getting out of Hinatas grip. They all improve fast and were so reliable.

Sakura-san was consider as a genius on medical art and Lady Tsunade has big fate for her. Ino-san was also good at medical art. They both were clever and cheerful, that Hinata cant help but envious them.

Choji-kun, Lee-kun and TenTen-san are strong fighters.

Shikamaru-kun is very intelligent and the best of all, he cares for his teammate and wouldn't let anyone get hurt.

Shino-kun always so clam and can handle things perfectly. His insect hunt skill was so high level that he often send to help jonin track people.

Kiba-kun and Akamauru have level up their training and were getting much stronger. Kiba seems to be bad mouthed, but actually he is one of the people that is really nice to Hinata and consider her feelings.

Neji nii-san... Hinata cannot help but fear him, but on the same time worship him. Even if Neji is from the crush family, he is strong, really, really strong.

"He made a better heir that I ever going to be", Hinata thinks. She thinks that it is really unfair, that some people of the family, must been crush, even if they is stronger than the head family. They should make a heir of the most suitable of the whole Hyuuga Family, not the first born of the present heir.

Well, in Hinata's case, she is not the heir candidate anymore, instead her five years younger little sister. In sort of, Hinata is relief. She hasn't so much press anymore when she knows that the Family don't expect much of her now. And she sure that Hanabi-chan going to be a splendid heiress. But Hinata can't deny that she is sad and ashamed of it. "No many shinobi is such a failure as I am."

Hinata look up at the sky.

"I want to become stronger", she said whiteout stutter. "I want to become useful for my friends, my clan, my village, for... Naruto-kun's sake. I do anything to protect the precious in my life."

"Really?" A soft voice from the sky said. Hinata gasps when she saw a gorgeous young women's head from above. "You do anything to become stronger?"

Hinata looks at the women and doesn't know if she gone insane of all the stress, but... Somehow this women gave Hinata a close feeling, like they have something connected to each other and...

"Yes, I do," said Hinata determined.

The beautiful lady smiles and reaches out her hand against Hinata and Hinata does the same. Suddenly a splendid huge bird with sparkle pure white feather and spots of blood red fly toward Hinata and she gentle touch the wing. Bright light appeared around Hinata and the bird, the Lady's smile fainted away and Hinata disappears from the forest.
