Enjoy!

It was a sunny day. The park was filled with happiness. Children were running everywhere playing hide-and-seek, go fish, dice, cops and robbers, playing in the swings, in the sand, etc. The yellow sunflowers complimented the white daisies that surrounded the playground. There was peace. Parents were talking with one another but no one stood out as much as the single pearled eyed mother and her son. Her son, Hikaru. Everybody said that he looked just like his mother since he had pearled eyes and dark blue long hair and a kind nature, but she knew better than that. Everything else screamed Uchiha Itachi. Only a handful people knew the truth behind "Hyuga" Hikaru's parentage. Despite the circumstances she went through, resulting the birth of her son. She was at peace since her tormentor was dead, she was strong and happier than everyone and it was a reason to celebrate.

"Mommy hurry up!" A very excited four-year-old blue haired boy said to his mother. He took her by the hand and led her towards the playground. "Uncle Kaka is waiting for us."

That's right, uncle Kaka. The man Hyuga Hinata loved, Hatake Kakashi. In her worst times, he was there for her. When she found out her first love, Uzumaki Naruto was dating Sakura, he distracted her by helping her in her training to become stronger. He was the first person she saw when she woke up from her coma and had amnesia. Aside from Hikaru, he was her light, the one who made her stronger, her hope.

"Calm down Hikaru." The Hyuga heiress said to her son. "Kakashi is not going anywhere". She let out a kind smile.

"Are you going to marry him?" The young sharp kid asked. Just like his father, he was way too intelligent for his age. On top of that, he was also an observant child.

"Of c-c-course n-not". The young mother blushed at her son's question. "W-w-what makes you say that Hika?"

"Because you love uncle and he makes you happy." The young Uchiha answered. "And I want him as a father." Hikaru said shyly. "I see all my friends with a father and sometimes I wonder why I don't have one. But I know father makes you sad and Hika don't want to see mommy sad so I don't ask."

Broken by her son's statement, she hugs him tightly. "I'm sorry Hika."

"Don't worry mommy." Hikaru let go of Hinata's grasp and did eye contact with his mother. "That is why I think that you should marry the person who is like a daddy to me. That is uncle Kaka." Tears started to fall from Hinata's eyes and Hikaru hugged her again. "I love you lots mommy."

"I love you too Hika."

Afterwards, mother and son let go of each other and continued their way to the playground where the copy nin was waiting for them. When she saw Kakashi, she was in awe. After all, in front of everyone, he hadn't put on his mask.

"Uncle Kaka." The young Uchiha ran towards him excitedly with the purpose that the copy nin would lift him up. As expected by the boy, he humored him.

"How are you little brat?" Kakashi asked him.

"I am not a bwat" Hikaru said pouting. "Hika is big."

"Kakashi!" Hinata said interrupting the moment between the copy nin and her son. She blushed when she thought about the conversation she had earlier with Hikaru.

"Hinata." He said smiling. They made eye contact and stood there for a minute until the moment was broken when Hikaru said something to Kakashi in the ear. He nodded and he walked towards the Hyuga Hime while carrying Hikaru. When Kakashi he was in front of Hinata, he leaned in and kissed her gently on the lips. "So naïve my Hime." He said while caressing her face.

"K-k-kakashi?" She looked at the copy nin confused.

He smirked and started to change form. "Always so trusting." He looked at the now asleep child who was in his arms. "I guess my son got that from you."

"Itachi?" Hinata said in a scared tone. "You were supposed to be dead."

"I am not."

Hinata activated her Byakugan and launched herself at the Uchiha prodigy. "Let go of my son" She tried to land an attack but Itachi quickly dodged it and disappeared with Hikaru.

"HIKARU!" Hinata cried. She saw to her surroundings and the people around her started to disappear. The playground disappeared and it was changed with a crimson red background. Before she could do something, Itachi appeared without his son behind the Hyuga heiress and grabbed both her wrists.

"Please give me back my son." She pleaded with the Uchiha prodigy.

"You know I can't do that." He said while turning her around. He lifted her chin and leaned closer to her face. "He is destined to become a weapon for the Akatsuki you are destined to bear my children." He kissed her cheek and then neared his lips to hers…

"HIKARU!" Hinata woke up from her nightmare looking for her son. It was 2 in the morning when she woke up to her 2 months old son cry. She turned on the lamp on her nightstand and got up from the comfort of her bed. She walked towards the crib and picked her son up and sat at the chair that was beside so she could feed him.

"Don't worry Hika." She assured him. "I won't let anybody take you. I promise to protect you with everything I have."


Neji found himself in front of the Yamanaka flower shop. We wore a nude polo shirt and blue jeans. Instead of having a usual ponytail, his dark brown long hair was loose. That morning, he didn't emit his usually intimidating aura. Instead, he seemed nervous. Everyone around him could see it but they didn't know the reason behind his nervousness.

"Well, here I go." The Hyuga prodigy said after contemplating the door of the flower shop. It was nicely decorated with bush four leaf clover design which made him know that it was his girlfriend since she was fond with the plant. Since the door was automatic, he got startled when it opened by itself. Of course, at the moment he wasn't his usual self. He entered the flower shop which was filled with a lot of colors. He kept walking through the flower shop until he stopped in front of the cashier who happened to be the mother of his girlfriend. "G-g-ood morning Ms. Yamanaka." He greeted.

"Neji-kun, how many times I have to tell you to call me mother, not Ms. Yamanaka." The elder woman said.

"I apologize." He bowed. "I'm not used to it."

"There's also no need for formalities. We are family. After all, you are my daughter's boyfriend." She stated. "I hope you are not looking for Ino. She's at a mission."

"I know." The Hyuga prodigy answered nervously. "Actually I was hoping to talk to your husband about something."

"Oh. I see." She walked away from the cash register. "Follow me." She motioned him to follow her.

Neji followed the elder woman to a door that when opened, the Hyuga prodigy found out it was an office. It smelled of flowers, since it was in a flower shop. The walls where painted with beige color while the celling was white. In top of the desk that was placed at the end of the room, Neji saw several family portraits. Yamanaka Inoichi was currently sitting reading some reports at his desk when they appeared.

"Honey. Neji wants to talk to you." She announced to her husband, making him look at them. Noticing the young boy's nervousness, she smiled and left the men alone to talk.

"Neji." The Yamanaka head smiled. "Long time no see. Is there something wrong."

"Well you see…"

Flashback (earlier in the morning)

"Hiashi-sama." Neji bowed to his uncle who was currently eating breakfast.

"Is there something wrong Neji." He asked when he noticed Neji's uneasiness.

"I'm planning to propose to Ino."

The Hyuga head smiled at his nephew's happiness. "I am happy for you. I approve of your relationship."

"I appreciate it uncle." He answered. "I need to discuss something else with you."

"Tell me."

"I will not permit that any of my offspring or that my future wife gets marked with the curse seal uncle." He said in a serious tone. "Lately, we've had a food relationship but if you plan to do that with my future family, I will take action."

"I understand Neji." Hiashi said proud at his nephew's demands. "There is no need to worry. Your children wouldn't be the only ones in danger. Since I made Hanabi the heir to the Hyuga, Hinata has been in the list to have the curse seal and now that Hikaru is born, he is also on the list to become a branch member." The Hyuga head informed Neji. "I plan to abdicate that custom."

"I appreciate it uncle." He smiled in gratitude.

Back to reality

"I want to marry your daughter." He announced cutting to the chase.

Inoichi raised his eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

The Hyuga prodigy gulped. "I love her Mr. Yamanaka." He did his best to look at him in the eye but the Yamanaka's intense stare made him more nervous than he already was. "I was hoping for your blessing."

The Yamanaka head stood up from his chair and walked in front of the evidently nervous Hyuga prodigy. "I will not permit that my daughter gets marked or that she suffers from your clan's laws."

"I know." Neji said finally gaining his courage and strengthening his determination. "I already talked to my uncle about that. He is going to advocate that law. If the clan in any way pans to bring harm to her I can assure you they will pay.

"I see." Inoichi gave an evil smile. "Follow me. I want to see how determined you are to marry my daughter."

"Hai."

Five hours later (At the Hyuga compound)

It was the afternoon and the Hyuga compound was completely silent. Normally, the voice of Hiashi's youngest daughter could be heard all over the compound. The main and the branch houses of the clan were already used to the young heiress antics and schemes. It was no surprise when someone from the village would arrive at the compound demanding to speak with the Hyuga head about Hanabi's pranks. Hiashi would display complete ignorance at his daughter's behavior and would even defend her cause. He simply saw it as a way for Hanabi to train her ninja skills. Rumor had it that she had recruited Hatake Kakashi for her schemes, which made it more dangerous for the entire Konoha population. That's what would've happened on a normal day at the Hyuga compound. But at the present, it wasn't the case. Hiashi was stressed because of clan related stuff, Neji was out in a meeting with Yamanaka Inoichi and Hinata was sulking. In conclusion, Hanabi was bored helping Hinata take care of Hikaru.

Both sisters currently sat on the soft grass of the garden of the Hyuga household. Hanabi watched as her sister was breastfeeding her son with love and care. But aside that, she noticed the eye bags Hinata had. Not only that, she also noticed Hinata was being distant.

"Are you okay nee-san?" Hanabi asked her sister out of concern, noticing her odd behavior. "You seem distant."

"I'm tired." The young mother answered. "Hikaru keeps waking me up at night."

"Are you sure it's only that."

"Yes." Hinata lied and quickly changed the subject. At the same time, Hinata stopped feeding Hikaru since he had finished and was asleep. "Here, take Hikaru." She handed her little sister the three months old baby. "How is it going with the preparations for the chunin exams?"

"That was two months ago nee-san." Hanabi answered starting to get suspicious. "Are you sure tha-"

"Neji-niisan." Hinata exclaimed when she saw her cousin enter the gardens al battered.

'Shit'. Hanabi thought to herself. 'Just when I was about to find out what was wrong with Hina.' She shot her cousin a death glare and he looked at her confused. She simply ignored him.

"Are you okay?" She started checking the Neji's injuries. "What happened to you?"

"I talked to Ino's father just like you suggested." The Hyuga prodigy answered his cousin.

"What did he say?"

Neji smiled. "He gave me the blessing."

Hinata squealed and hugged her cousin. "I am so happy for you nii-san!"

"Thanks."

"Well…" Hanabi said interrupting the moment. "I'm happy for nii-san but I have to leave. See you soon Mango." Hanabi handed Hinata the baby.

"Where are you going Hana?" Hinata asked worried about her sister.

"You worry too much Hina." Hanabi said to her sister. "I will go… out. With some friends."

"Oh okay."

"See you later sis."


Later on, that same day, Sasuke was walking through the village. The village had changed a lot from when he had left before. Back then, he was a twelve years old kid full of hate and ambition. His main goal was to kill his older brother Uchiha Itachi as an act of vengeance for killing the entire Uchiha clan. He killed his brother but he still wasn't satisfied because something was missing. It was his second goal, to revive his clan. For that, he had chosen Hinata, the quiet and shy Hyuga heiress. He had it all planned, he would mark her, leave the village to become stronger, kill his brother, go back to Konoha, take Hinata and leave the village again and produce offspring. But Itachi decided to also choose her and he got her pregnant and then, steal her memories and make her hate him. Sasuke had come to terms with it because Hikaru was his nephew and had Uchiha blood inside of him. On top of that, his annoying pervert former sensei had the hots for his bride. He knew he needed to think and act fast before someone took her from him, especially that pervert.

He kept walking when he saw the annoying loudmouth blonde idiot and his stalker girlfriend. They seemed to be struggling with something. The Uchiha avenger mentally prayed that they didn't see him.

"SASUKE-TEME!" Naruto cried when he saw his best friend. "Help us please."

Both Naruto and Sakura where tied to a pole. He ignored him and kept walking.

"Sasuke-kun help us please." She pleaded to the Uchiha.

"Fuck." Naruto cursed. "That Hyuga brat keeps pestering us. Doesn't she have a life?"

'Hyuga brat?' Sasuke asked to himself. "And you are weak enough to fall for her traps?"

"It's not my fault Kakashi-sensei joined her schemes." Naruto exclaimed. "Ever since then, her tricks have become worse than ever."

'Kakashi?' Sasuke decided to help the annoying idiot and Sakura. He untied her from the ropes.

"Thank you Sasuke-kun." Sakura said blushing. Naruto looked at the scene and frowned.

"Hm." He ignored her and kept walking towards his destination.


"I see." Hanabi looked at the blushing Haruno. "Now I know how to really make him suffer." She grinned and left towards the compound.

I hope you liked this first chapter.

This summer, I will be working on several projects. The first one is this fanfiction, the second one is "A New Beginning" a SasuHina fanfinc I'm working on and I will also be working on the rewrite of "Memories Long Forgotten" which is the prequel of Rekindling Memories (I feel like it needs to be more descriptive. It's hard for me because I am a straightforward person, so that means that my type of writing is straightfoward).

Please leave comments.
