A/N: I've been debating whether to throw my hat back into the ring, making Naruto fics again. A one shot unless I see some interest in the story. And if you have any ideas for which Naruto characters should replace the Inuyasha cast let me know in a review or PM!

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, nor do I claim the setting in the Inuyasha universe. This story is a concept that I thought sounded pretty cool and wanted to share.

Time Displacement

"Hinata-dono, it's time to wake up." A male with long brunet states, speaking to the lump under the blankets. Hinata grumbled irritably, not even attempting to get up. Already used to this morning routine Neji grabbed the edge of the blanket and pulled at it, causing Hinata to roll onto the floor. "N-Neji-niisan!" Hinata tried glaring at her older brother but he wasn't the slightest bit intimidating. While most people thought that they grey eyes of the Hyuuga were unnerving, Neji was used to seeing his own eyes on a daily basis. That and Hinata could only pull off looking like a kicked puppy. "It may be your birthday but we still have school today." Neji comments, helping Hinata to her feet.

Her face flushed in embarrassment, it had slipped her mind that today was her birthday. Hinata could already imagine Ino shaking her head in disappointment and Deidara's fit of laughter due to her oversight. Her embarrassment was often a source of entertainment to the blond siblings. She looked at her clock and yelped, she should've been cleaning the shrine grounds half an hour ago! Neji, sensing her pending panic attack, patted her head. "I've already cleaned, just focus on getting ready for school." He says as Hinata hugged him. "Arigato Neji-nii!"

"Happy birthday Hina-chan!" Ino cheers, glomping her best friend. The blunette blushed as Ino began interrogating her about her plans after school. "I'm not sure but I have to be home before seven." Hinata says as Ino rolled her eyes. "Hinata, you're turning 17, curfews are for kids. Tell your family to remove the large sticks from their ass once in a while." Ino says bluntly. "Ano, Ino I think you've been spending too much time around Sai-kun." Hinata says as Ino's eyes gleamed mischievously.

"Oh Hina-chan, you just don't know the joys of having a boyfriend yet. If you let me I could set you up with a real cutie." Ino says with a wink. Hinata blushed, she was naturally a quiet and shy girl. It was only made worse when she was in the presence of a cute boy. One time a senior named Suigetsu hit on her with some "crass" wording and the poor girl had fainted. Afterwards Sugetsu had an "accident" that hospitalized him for a month. Someone had set off some fireworks and he'd sustained burns all over his body. He was still getting skin grafts and he avoided Hinata like the plague. Hinata was shaken out of her thoughts whe she accidentally bumped into a red head.

Ino's face paled considerably and the boy looked down at his underclassman. "G-Gomenasai." Hinata muttered, looking up at the boy shyly. He had a slightly feminine face with light brown eyes and dark lashes that contrasted with his fair complexion. He gave her a blank look as Hinata's face flushed. "Hinata right? Be careful of where you're walking next time." Sasori says, patting her on the head before walking away. Ino's jaw dropped but when the shock wore off she had an unnerving grin. "Did you see that? Sasori-senpai knows your name! He never bothers with underclassmen and rumor has it he totally hates girls. He must be head-over-heels in love with you!" Ino squeals.

"What rumors are you spreading now imouto?" Deidara asks warily, well aware of the fact that his little sister was a gossip fiend. "Sasori-senpai likes Hinata!" Ino exclaims, hugging Hinata. "I'm sure he was just being polite Ino-chan." Hinata protests as Deidara thought it over. "Actually that might not be far from the truth. If he doesn't think something is an annoyance it's considered a miracle. It might as well have been a confession." Thump! Hinata had fainted, unfortunately this was a regular occurrence for the girl. "Please tell me she'll grow out of this. Can you imagine her kissing someone and immediately fainting? Poor idiot would think shed died." Deidara says bluntly, easily throwing the petite girl over his shoulder. Ino placed a jacket over Hinata's skirt so she wouldn't be flashing her panties. "Idiot, you're supposed to carry her like a princess! This is exactly why you don't have a girlfriend!"

-Feudal Japan-

Crimson eyes glinted in sadistic glee as a cat demon clutched the Shikon Jewel to his chest. Finally he would be out of the cold woman's clutches once and for all. He'd finally become a full demon, get rid of his weak human half, and kill his brother! A woman with long brunette hair and pale grey eyes panted heavily, pressing a hand to her wounded side. "Nice try mongrel, it will take more than that to kill me so easily. I've always been one step ahead of you." Hanabi says with a smirk, Sasuke inwardly cursed. She was supposed to be dead!

"Heel." Sasuke felt the subjugation beads weigh down on him as Hanabi limped over, her hands glowing a dim blue. "Let me go you wench!" Sasuke spat, for a woman barely hanging onto life she was unnaturally calm. "I may die today hell spawn but I'm taking you and the Shikon Jewel with me." With that Hanabi used her technique to hit all of Sasuke's chakra veins, causing Sasuke to cough up blood. "What… have you done?" Sasuke hissed, feeling a foreign energy invade his body as his organs began to shut down. "My soul and the Shikon Jewel shall leave this plane for the afterlife. You won't be joining us, in fact you shall remain paralyzed for all eternity. I win yet again half breed."

-Modern Japan-

Thankfully Hinata recovered from her fainting episode and was surprised at how many people knew it was her birthday. Ino's boyfriend, Sai, had even given her a painting as a gift. For a prodigy in his craft, this was a pretty big deal. "So Hinata, what do you think your weird gift will be this year?" Deidara snickers, Hinata's face paled. For a practical man, her father's gifts were always… eccentric. Last year he had given her a *rabbit's foot, westerners seemed to think it symbolized luck, and to her misfortune it seemed that it was recently cut off. "Hopefully it isn't another animal's body part." Hinata says as they approached the Hyuuga shrine. "We'll see ya later birthday girl, don't have too much fun without us." Ino says, hugging the girl.

Neji had gifted her with a small replica of the shrine's Koma Inu* that were supposed to protect them. As a child she would always climb atop the dog-lion statues, making her feel safe. She was surprised when, instead of giving her something that would've given her nightmare fuel, her father gave her a replica of a jewel. Hiashi looked like he was about to cry when he handed it to her. "Father? Is something wrong?" Hinata asks, Hiashi gave a bitter smile. "I cannot interfere with destiny Hinata. Soon you will see what I have been preparing you for since you were a child." This did nothing to calm Hinata's nerves and soon she fell into a fitful sleep, her dreams filled with flames and sinister laughter.

Notes

*Koma Inu are usually found in pairs and are guardians of holy areas. Known in English as lion-dogs they have thick, curly manes and tails with powerful, muscular bodies and sharp teeth and claws. They represent ying and yang, or life and death.

*In North America, it is considered lucky to have the left foot of a rabbit carried in the left pocket. The rabbit had to be killed on Friday the 13th by a crossed eye person for it to work.
