(I don't own Naruto!)

"Get up Hanabi!" Hiashi sighed. Hanabi's battle style wasn't nearly as good as it usually was today. She was tripping, falling, and just plain getting distracted.

"Focus!" She got up, tripped again, and hit the floor for the umpteenth time. Unfortunately, she just randomly happened to be holding a kunai at that particular moment...and Hiashi's foot was just..there.

"YAHHHHHHH!"

"Hinata did it!"

#-----------------------------------------------------------------

"Hinata, let one of the servants go!"

"It's...alright father. I'd be happy to go..." With that, Hinata turned and ran out the door before Hiashi could stop her. When she heard that her father had been stabbed through the foot, she had offered to go out and get medical supplies. She made it back just fine, of course. Unfortunately, the authoress didn't feel like making Hiashi's life easier at that moment. Hinata passed the supplies off to a servant and watched as he began to bandage the Hyuuga leader's foot. When he was finished, she walked up to him.

"Father..."

"What?"

"I'm...dating Aburame Shino!"

Hiashi had a heart attack.

#----------------------------------------------------------------

Now we find poor Hiashi lying in a hospital bed, missing some toes and freshly recovered from the attack. Then guess who comes in?

"Please, don't be my daughters..."

Neji.

"Thank God..." Hiashi muttered. Certainly, Neji could bring some sanity back to his day!

"Hello." He stated plainly. Hiashi nodded to him.

"Neji." Neji spoke again.

"I came by to see how you were doing..." Hiashi stared in horror as Neji glared out the corner of his eye. Actually, Hinata had made him come there. Some sort of "peace gesture."

"Well, goodbye." He turned and began to walk away. Then he stopped and turned back towards his uncle.

"Oh. Father says hi." Without warning, Hizashi appeared out of thin air next to his son.

"Hi." He waved at his brother. Hiashi stared.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

(Inner Hiashi—Note to self: Lock children in their rooms, throw that Aburame boy out a window, and call an exorcist.)

In other words, Hyuuga Hiashi is a very stressed man.

"I have an announcement."

In between business affairs, training, being head of one of the most powerful families in the Leaf Village, and dealing with abuse from the authoress, he doesn't have a lot of time to relax.

"Due to circumstances beyond my control..."

Oh sure, sitting and breathing have their perks, but after a while, you just want something more.

"I've decided that we're going on..."

Which is exactly why he gathered Hinata, Hanabi, and Neji together after getting out of the hospital's mental ward. But it was true! His dead brother really said 'Hi' and waved to him!

"..Vacation."

This is actually my first fanfic...be nice!

Poor Hiashi! I just abuse him, don't I? Hah...and on a random note, I'm still trying to imagine Hiashi throwing Shino out a window...

R&R!
