Disclaimer: Only the OCs are mine, I don't own Naruto nor any of the show's characters. Pairings are NaruHina, SasuSaku (quite possibly), and Hanabi/OC (possible femslash, if you don't like it, don't read it). I'm making this PG-13 (T), but if ever you think I need to pick a higher rating, please feel free to tell me.
A/N: Because I don't have much time to write, I may not update much, but when I do I promise to do my best to give good chapters.
She was nervous. Not just nervous, she was 'BEYOND FREAKED OUT!' like the foreign girl would say. Staring at her reflection in the mirror, Hanabi, Heir to the Hyuuga Clan, was trying with her very best training-ingrained will to erase every single hints of her nervousness from the white-eyed face staring right back at her. Like the nearly unnoticeable twitch of her eyebrows, or the slight rapid blinks of her eyes. She was thankful that her forehead wasn't covered in sweat, since she felt the cold sweatdrops making their ways down her shoulder blades.
'Stop this nonsense at once! Such an attitude isn't befitting of the Hyuuga Heir!' she mentally scolded herself. Briefly activating her Byakugan to make sure nobody was in the vicinity of her rooms, she let go of a faint sigh of relief before making a funny face at the mirror, then barely restrained herself from jumping in fright when the inside door to her room opened, revealing her beloved sister. The young Genin cursed her sister's ability to become completely unnoticeable even to her family's sharp eyes.
Hinata had grown rather well ever since she became a Genin, about five years ago. While she still was extremely shy, she now held herself with obvious confidence, her shoulders weren't slumped anymore, and that even was visible with the way she dressed. She didn't wear her baggy pants and large vest any longer, preferring to wear clothes that while still respecting her need for decency were far more revealing. The older girl now wore on form-fitting shorts and top over a ninja fishnet, and a lavender vest that was far shorter than the contraption that had covered all of her torso and back all those years ago. What's more, the vest was now completely unzipped, revealing her obviously feminine curves. Hanabi also respected how her sister had rebelled against her father when she had finally told him that she wasn't interested in becoming the next Head to the Hyuuga Clan. That announcement had quickly escalated in a forceful screaming match that had ended when Hinata, in a rather uncharacteristic display of temper, had thrown in her father's face that not only did Hanabi have the respect of the Hyuuga elders, she also wasn't 'far roo gentle' like the Hyuuga patriarch had once said about his eldest daughter.
"If you are ready, I am to take you to the Academy." Simply said the older girl with an affectionate smile. She watched Hanabi do whatever it is she was doing. Her sister was wearing a dark blue, almost black shinobi attire with a pure black top underneath, her dark brown hair pulled in a ponytail maintained by a little gold ring. Probably for the sake of vanity she thought, without voicing it.
Quickly realising that even if her sister had noticed her little slip, she wouldn't go and blab about it, Hanabi quickly restrained the answering smile that had started to break on her face and acknowledged her statement with a curt nod. Turning back one last time towards her mirror, the younger Hyuuga missed the twinkle in her sister's eyes.
'Keep your cold exteriors while you still can. With the team you were put on, I don't give you a week before you start behaving more like a girl your age.' Was the gentle yet mocking thought that crossed her mind.
"Hn! Let's get done with it." finally said the young kunoichi before following her older sibling out of the room. Watching the two leave the property, Hyuuga Hiashi allowed himself an approving twitch of his lips before getting back to his own business.
