Hinata isn't happy about herself, and why is that? She's currently a Jounin, she almost defeated Neji in her last match, which leads to the elders of her family almost thinking about letting her keep her title of being an heir, She's even going out with the man of her dreams Naruto.
So why is she not happy about herself, it's because of this. "Why am I so hesitent?!" That would of been heard all over the village if Hinata wasn't talking to herself in her head.
Sure she maybe a Jounin now through her hard work, but she was almost the last to become one among her friends if Shikamaru wasn't too lazy to care about it. Hinata would of defeated Neji in that match if she hadn't pulled back that last attack that ended up costing her.
She even wouldn't have confessed to Naruto and go out with him if her friends, Sakura, Ino, and Tenten, hadn't helped her. All they did was study Naruto's daily schedule (with the help of Hinata's mental notes through her stalking him) and made it look like that Hinata was just there at the most convenient moment. It took a while, but Naruto started to grow attach to Hinata, she was able to confessed to him, and they've been going out ever since.
"Maybe if I wasn't so hesitent, maybe I would show more promise, and what if Naruto-kun gets tired of me and breaks up with me?" The very thought of it would break her heart to a million pieces. (Of course he wouldn't, but thats Hinata thinking that).
She was currently at the Hyuuga's private library studying, seeing if she can find some way to change herself for the better, but to no avail.
"At this rate, I'll never..." she then suddenly trips as she was about to leave, but was able to grab the nearest lamp nailed on the wall to prevent it, when it then suddenly lowered itself and Hinata heard something like a door opening up.
She looked around for where the sound came from and found a door-shaped opening on the wall. "I never saw that before." Said Hinata as she decided to look inside out of curiosity, when the wall suddenly closed in on her locking her in the other side of the wall. "Hey, let me out." Hinata yelled as loud as she could but no one could here her.
Hinata then fell to her knees and began to cry, thinking she might be stuck there forever, until she heard a voice coming from behind her which leads to a set of stairs leading down. "I didn't know we had a basement, I wonder where it leads?" Hinata said. "Hopefully a way out." she then thought.
As Hinata walked down the stairs, she could hear voice getting louder and louder as she could hear what it was saying.
or... ori... bori... "Bori?" Was the last thing that Hinata was able to hear as the voice suddenly stop, until it made a loud a clear yell.
"It's so BORING!" Hinata made a loud "EEP!" sound as it almost scared her half to death, but she manage to continue on since she has nowhere else to go but down the stair.
As Hinata got closer to the end of the stairs, she then saw a light surrounding the one area, and around it was a someone that looks like a woman in chains. Hinata couldn't see her face as the woman's long hair was blocking it, so she decided to walk closer to her when the woman suddenly raised her face as hinata step on a creeking floorboard which then surprised Hinata.
The woman then asked, "Hmph, who the hell are you?" She said in a rude fashion. Before Hinata could answer, she got a good look at the woman's face, as the woman has the eyes of the Byakugan and looks like Hinata if she was in her mid-twenties.
After that, she answered, "M-My name i-is H-H-Hinata H-Hyuuga." The woman then laughed, "Is that right, you're a Hyuuga?" The woman then laughed some more, "You may have the Byakugan, but you sure don't act like a Hyuuga!" The woman then can't stop laughing at Hinata.
Hinata then yelled at her, "S-Stop laughing!" Then asked, "Please?" At first the woman did stop laughing, but almost began laughing again after what she last said, but manage to calm down. The woman then asked Hinata a question, "So, what brings an all mighty Hyuuga like you down here for?" Hinata then answered, "I just found the passageway up the stairs and got locked in here somehow." Hinata almost feel embarrassed at answering her, but the woman didn't laugh at her.
"Heh, must have never known about that, did you? For only the elders and the Head of the main house Know about it." Hinata couldn't help but noticed the emphasis that the woman said about the elders and the Head, but choose to ignore it, for now.
"What is your name and how long have you been down here?" Hinata asked. Then the woman answered, "Name's Haraki, And I lost count after fifty years of being locked down here, and I'm beginning to be extremely bored out of my mind down here." Hinata was surprised that someone can still be alived down here for so long and still look so young.
Hinata then asked, "What are you down here for?" Haraki then answered, "Don't know, I can't even remembered why I'm down here. Oh well, probably something not important and they just forgot about me." Hinata couldn't help but feel sorry for Haraki for being down here for so long.
"How do I set you free?" Hinata asked. "You sure are full of questions, but why would you want to set me free?" Haraki asked. Hinata then said, "Because it's no excuse to leave a human being down here and just forget about it." Haraki can see she was serious, but also see another obvious side in her, hesitation. Haraki then thought of something for a moment and just tell Hinata how to release the chains.
"The chains act as a seal, just release one of them like your releasing any other kind of seal. I would of done it myself, but I'm a bit tied up to do it." As Haraki explained it, Hinata did what she said and release one of the seal and next thing you know, the rest broke in an instance by Haraki.
"Ahh, it feels good to finally move around" Haraki said as she began to stretch her muscles. Hinata couldn't believe that just releasing one of the seals, the rest would break in an instance. Haraki looked at Hinata who is sitting after the sudden release, then she bend down to make eye level contact. "Tell you what, for helping out, I'll return the favor. Is there anything you would like?
Hinata just smiled and said, "That's okay, there's no need to give me a reward." But Haraki wouldn't take no for an answer, "Come on, there's got to be something, like maybe a secret technique, a quick training tip, or maybe a confidence boost." Hinata took notice to Haraki's last offer and asked her, "Confidence boost?"
Haraki then smirked and exlained, "Yeah, a confidence boost. I can see in your eyes that you have a great deal of hesitation in you, it's almost unexplainable that you just decided to set me free without a second thought." Hinata then looked at her feet as if in shame that Haraki was right about that. Hinata then asked, "Are you sure you can give me a confidence boost just like that?" Haraki then answered, "It would even get someone who knows you best to say who are you and what you did to Hinata."
Hinata is sick and tired of being so hesitant her entire life and made the boldest choice in her entire life. "I'll take that offer then." Haraki made a quick smirked and pulled out her hand. "Just grabbed my hand and it will happen in an instance."
Hinata then slowly pulled out her own hand, but before she makes contact, she quickly asked Haraki. "What will happen?" Haraki then answer as Hinata grabbed her hand. "Nothing much, just going to, you know, become a part of you."
Hinata went wide eyed as all of a sudden, Haraki began to merge into her in a form of chakra that surrounded her body, Hinata could almost breathed as much as she can while it was happening, but then collapsed on the floor.
As Hinata wakes up, she found herself back in the private library in her seat. "Was that all just a dream?" When all of a sudden, she heard a familiar voice in her head. "Nope, just the beginning of your new self by yours truly." It was then that Hinata's life will never be the same again.
