I did say I would write more NaruHina stories. This is just one of two on my mind right now, and even though I just came up with it and writing as I go, hopefully this will get good, positive feedback and I'll be able to put up the first chapter of my other story.
Far away in a distant land, certain people share mysterious bonds with certain animals. In the main castle, Hyuga Manor, those who have animal connections are sent to receive special training. Some from family lineage, others by tradition, but in a very rare case, where most have connections with only one animal, one very gifted, very special individual has two. This hero would be the outcast the people would turn to in their time of need.
This young boy, Naruto, was a bit of an outsider. He had a bond with foxes that made everyone around him nervous. Hardly anyone approached him for any reason, except higher ups from the castle who either secretly look after him or are intrigued by his unusual animal connection. Naruto would often seclude himself in the forests outside of town. The fox that appeared wasn't afraid like everyone else. To Naruto's surprise, his fox friend had ultra sensitive hearing, and could feel like someone was there with them. It was Hinata, who was always wondering why Naruto was looked down on by everyone, yet still watching him from afar.
Unfortunately, Hinata, the oldest daughter of the current Lord, has not yet found her animal, if possible. But her younger sister, Hanabi and their cousin, Neji, Lord Hyuga's late brother's son have found theirs. Hinata just stood there as her eyes widened at how Naruto looked differently in the light the way he did. She knew he wasn't like the others, and was interested in getting to know more about him. Suddenly, Naruto looked where the fox was looking and spotted Hinata. Hinata knew that her father's intense training regiment was starting today. She was thinking of having him watch with her so he can see others like him in action and he would think to work hard in order to reach their ranks. Hinata knew what she had to do, and she went for it.
Meanwhile, before the call of high noon, a few already chosen to receive training have gathered at the local arena. Different animals gathered along side the combatants as well. Lord Hyuga appeared before them, announcing this will be their first day of preparing for greatness. A series of events would take place to determine who would face a terrifying threat on the kingdom. Little did everyone know, there was another animal wielder lurking in the shadows.
All right. This might not be my best, but it's a start. What will Hinata say to Naruto? Why are people intentionally distant towards him? What does a fox have to do with it? Who do you think are the ones in the arena with Lord Hiashi? Review, fave, follow, and I'll try to update when possible.
