There was a well softened hand next to the hard face of Hanabi Hyuuga, it was supposed to be in the middle pushing her back however she had ducked once again to avoid the hit of her sister. If she did not get hit, she would not loose, and Hanabi knew this. It wasn't that Hinata was not fast enough, it was that Hinata did not want to hit Hanabi in the face. She thought it would be rude. Somewhere else, Hinata was looking for somewhere else to hit but Hanabi was too well trained to block everything except her face which she knew Hinata could not bare to hit.
As Hinata fell over missing the hit, Hanabi raise her uncovered foot and kicked her to the side. Hinata flew a few feet and landed on some soft grass out of the way. Her head fell next to a tree and she lay there in the grass contemplating her decision to keep her bid for running the family. Hanabi was stronger, she would do better.
Hinata was weak and she knew this.
She closed her eyes and turned her head straight up to just wait. She heard her father's voice and sighed. There was not reason for her to get back up right now only to get kicked down again. 'One day, I'm going to beat her. One day...' Hinata moaned, she was not hurt, but her ego was highly dented as usual. "I'm fine! I'm just going to lay here for a while though."
"Father, I'm going to seek out Neji to train with. I want to learn something today." Hanabi said coldly. she began to walk past in her simple fighting outfit and walked past Hinata causing the grass to make a swishing sound as she walked by. She did not look down and she did not speak. The sound slowly disappeared and her father left as well leaving her there. Hinata opened her eyes slowly and looked up at the big green leaves above her head. They moved softly into the wind, some detaching to fly away somewhere. 'Flying away, that sound nice.' She sat up and set her hand into the trees hallow and pushed herself up. Hinata moved her hand along the bottom and felt a sharp pinch. She pulled her finger out and saw something unusual. 'A papercut?'
Hinata looked inside the tree still holding her bleeding finger. She saw something small and white inside. She reached her hand in and pulled out a scroll with a hand carved wood center. Hinata looked at it, looked around, and shoved the document in her coat.
The idea of bare feet on a rocky dirt path was weird to her so she began jumping from tree to tree and landed on the back porch of the large Hyuuga mansion of the complex. Hinata sighed and walked down a few feet to the hallway and opened the door to her room. Her bed was made so she decided to sit on the floor. She set the scroll down and opened it up to see a smudgy handwriting decorating it.
'For my daughter, the future leader' read the title of it. Hinata instantly thought of her own mother, however the scroll was far to old to be something her mother had written. 'What should I do with you, should I hand you into father? You should be in the documents room probably...' Hinata then remembered that the documents room was off limits to her and sighed. With her head down, she stood up, closed the door, and sat down reading.
