There was something calm yet eerie that night. It was the night those two last saw each other. I don't know exactly what happened that day; I wasn't even alive yet when it happened, just limited to what I was told. Although Grandfather has a way to twist and bend the truth, I decided to trust him that one time and not bother my mother about it.
Okay that's a bad beginning to what would normally be a crappy story. Although the Climax of this 'story' does take place at night, it didn't start there. The Rising Action, I suppose you could say, started that morning. I don't know what happened exactly, only my mother and father are said to know, but of course I would never want to burden my mother. As for my father… well let's just say I can't burden him…
My father is dead… or so I'm told… You'd think that would get to an eight year old boy's head, but it doesn't surprise me in the least bit. It's probably because of what my grandfather tells me about him. I'm told he was a bad man. Sometimes I believe it; he left my mother who was carrying me without a word. Sometimes I don't believe it; my mother doesn't seem to be the type of woman to ever consider loving someone vile…
Well, He's dead and I'm alive… Whatever happened between my mother and father is between the two of them… or just my mom if he really has passed on… All I know is that my dad had friends… bad friends… and these friends aren't the kind of friends you hear most people have, bachelors who sleep with every woman they see. No, these guys never saw any women besides the ones they killed. Yeah, they were murderers; I guess I kind of left that out.
Aside from all that, two of my mom's friends eventually found her. Not saying that they were the only two, just the two that were sent to find her. My mom has 9 very good friends. But see, out of the two, there's this one guy who uses bugs that can track you and stuff and the other guy has a nose that can… well, let's say if I took a leak on a fire hydrant on the other side of town, he's be the first to know who wasn't in the immediate area. They eventually tracked her down and returned her home.
Yes that's it… that's all I was told… Sorry that's not as shocking as I thought I made it sound. Why would they have to bring her back home? No idea. How did my dad die? Grandfather says one of his friends killed him. Okay let me hold. He didn't say friend, he said associate, but isn't that the same? Cut me some slack, I'm eight, if it's not then oh well.
The only thing I know in exclusive is what one of my mom's friends told me. It went something like this.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Gatsuuga!"
"Waaugh!"
"Sir! We're under attack! You need to get back… What is… Bugs? Ahhhh!"
"Hello? Hello? Aki? Answer me! Aki? Hel-"
Clink.
"Well that's that…"
"This is such a waste! I can't smell her anywhere!"
"Relax… My Kikaichu are looking everywhere… it's only a matter of time now…"
The three figures stepped from the shadows.
One was dressed in a thick black jacket which had a high neck point which ended at what would normally be at your nose bridge and reached as far down as your knees. It was accompanied by a green overcoat, which had a hood he wore over his head. He wore black blocker glasses, so as not to allow his eyes to be seen. His pants were black, which were attached to holsters on his right leg that were hidden under his jacket. He had open toed boots, which were blue. He had some small bugs crawling on his face.
Another was wearing a thick blue jacket, which under he wore a seemingly netted shirt. His pants were almost the same, if not exactly like his companion's. He wore the same open toed boots, although they were brown. He had brown ruffled hair to which under he had a headband, which had a metal plate on it with a swirled design carved on it. He also had two red markings on his cheekbones. Next to him was… an exact twin of him, clothing and all. But wait. This figure immediately exploded in smoke and was replaced by a rather large white dog with brown ears.
Suddenly, the dog began to bark.
"Huh? What's wrong Akamaru? More Sound Ninja?" the second figure said
The dog barked in a different fashion.
"You found her!? Hey, Shino!"
"I'm right here, Kiba," the first spoke, "there's no need to yell…"
The dog, Akamaru, barked again and started running through the battered hallway, which was littered with bodies. All the people who were either dead or out cold were different, except for the fact they all wore a headband with a metal plate on it. The plate had a song note engraved on it.
"Let's go Shino!" Kiba said as he ran after his dog. Shino sighed and walked after his teammates.
When Shino caught up to the two they were in a hallway with many doors. Akamaru was sniffing at these doors, one by one, with Kiba sitting on him saying after each door, "Is she in there?" Shino extended out his arms and bugs came flying out as they reached each of the doors.
"Great Idea Shi-"
"I found her…"
"Bark, Bark!"
Shino walked over to a door and knocked, "Are you there… It's Me, Shino… Open up…"
No response.
"You don't think she's-"
"I don't know… Open this door…"
"What do I look like, a Thief!?"
"You're a Ninja…"
"Augh! No way! So are you! Why can't you open it!?"
"I wasn't trained to…"
"Fine, I'll break the Door!"
"Kiba, Be care-"
"Tsuuga!"
The door Crashed in and there was a bed with a figure on it. It turned over. It was a girl who had a thick Purple and white jacket. Her pants were identical to Kiba and Shino's in the regard that hers were purple instead and she had the same boots. She had purple hair that reached to her collarbone. Her eyes were closed and she was breathing calmly as she slept.
"She's there!" Kiba said as he ran inside. He grasped her shoulders and shook her lightly, "Hey, you alive… talk to me…"
She opened her eyes. Her eyes were white and she had no pupils. "Kiba-kun?"
"Hinata! You're okay!" He said, overjoyed as he hugged her tightly.
"Kiba-kun… Where… where am I…?" she said, confused.
Kiba let go of her and distanced himself from her slightly and sat down beside her as Shino approached the two. "You remember nothing?" Shino asked her.
"I… Wha… I remember…" she said to herself as she looked at nowhere in particular, clearly in wonder. She suddenly became wide eyed.
"You remember something?" Kiba asked her immediately.
"I saw them… both of them…" she said.
"Who? Hinata, who did you see?" Kiba asked.
"Orochimaru... and…-" she cut off as she looked at the floor.
"Don't worry Hinata, it's not your fault you couldn't handle them…" Kiba assured her as he put his hand on her shoulder.
"Kiba-kun… Shino-kun… I have… to tell-"
"We need to leave…" Shino cut her off.
Kiba turned, "Why?"
"My Kikaichu bugs detect some more movement…" he answered.
"Well then," Kiba smirked, "we'll just blast our way out. Lets go Akamaru!"
Akamaru and Kiba ran out of the room as explosions were heard.
Shino got on a knee, "Are you sure you're all right, Hinata?"
"No… I'm… I'm…"

That's about all I know. My mom was abducted. My dad happened to be there to. You'd think I'd have a great life… well when I'm next to my mom, sure, but when she's not around, my… family… makes my life hell. All because of who my parents are, too…
Who's my mom you ask? Why none other than the Hyuuga Hinata I mentioned earlier. I obviously have my mom's name, considering I stay with them. Its not like my dad has any family besides an uncle who's an even worse murderer and abductor than daddy's friends. Who's my dad you ask? Why none other than the illustrious missing S-rank Nin, the late Uchiha Sasuke…
Oh yeah. If my family wasn't uptight about keeping their blood pure, you must imagine on how much they feel about me… If I weren't the Heiress's son, and instead a Branch member of the Hyuuga's child, I wouldn't have even seen light. That's right, instant abortion.
Who am I you ask? Well, I am none other than Hyuuga Hiatari, Son of the Hyuuga Heiress. Despite being the son of a living princess, my family tries to kill me… Okay they don't send assassins, but they kick me down… Okay they don't kick me down, per-se, they belittle me. The only people that actually treat me like family are my Mom, a guy who my Mom gets all twitchy about, Uzumaki Naruto, My second cousin, Hyuuga Neji, and sometimes my Grandfather, Hyuuga Hiashi
Well here I am, in my bed, barely waking up… Let's see if I survive today… Kami be with me…

Author's Notes: (Now to be referred to as "A/N:" and are subject to appear whenever, not just at the end of the story) Alright this is my second fan fiction. My first one, for anyone who saw it (more than unlikely) is now on Hiatus. I don't plan to abandon it because I really like what I brainstormed for it. I kind of put it on Hiatus because It was getting no reviews (literally) and had no hits (almost literally) so I started up this story. Also an OC story, but more Involved. Its basically a Future Fic, as you can see. I hope this was a good Prequel. And I hope you enjoyed it.
