A/N - Alright so this is my first fic so this is probably going to be really crappy. Man, way to boost my self esteem. Well anyway I hope you enjoy it and if not o well.

Normal- is for the present time

Italic- is for flashbacks (o I know how we feel about those things)

Summary: After a fatal accident she was sent away to live in Suna because no one wanted her in Konaha. Now she returns to see if it still remains true.

Disclaimer: I do not in any way or form own Naruto. I just own a bunch of the manga though.


Prologue

It was the dead of night and the snow was falling. Silence engulfed the forest and the only thing to be heard was the crunching of snow and the whisper of the wind. She did not know why she came out, she just felt like she had too.

She did not know where she was going; she let her feet guide her to where she was going. The moon and stars were out and lit her way to where ever she was headed. She shivered as the wind nipped at her arms and legs. She suddenly stopped. She looked up to the scene before her and her eyes widened.

It was a small clearing that she did not know was even there. A small stream ran through it and glittered in the moonlight due to it being frozen over. The snow around the clearing also sparkled in the nightlight. The snow had yet to be stepped on and she did not plan on going any further. It was too beautiful to ruin, so she just stood there and looked at the sight before her.

She then started to cry silent sobs. She had held it in until now and wished someone; anyone would be here for her to cry into. She recalled the conversation she overheard before coming to this place.

She could not sleep and wanted to get away. She started to get out of bed when she heard voices in the hallway. She quickly went back to bed and listed in on the conversation.

"We are in quite the predicament aren't we?" said a man with a gruff voice. She did not seem to recognize who was speaking but continued to listen.

"Yes, it would appear so." This voice sounded lighter and younger then the first. There was a slight pause before they started talking again.

"If no one will take her, what will we do?" spoke the first man.

"I'm not sure. We want her to stay in Konaha, but that may not prove to be possible. Other relatives live too far away and the ones that live here do not even want to have the responsibility of taking care of her. Not even her own uncle wants to take her in." said the second.

"Seems quite the shame really, she wouldn't be that much trouble to look after. She usually takes care of herself most of the time anyway." they continued to go back and forth, this started to get rather annoying to the little eavesdropper nearby, but she remained silent.

"We may have to send her away" at this the girl's pale eyes widened as to what the second man had said. "I just have no idea where to send her though."

"Well, we could send her to Suna." the first said. She did a small gasp, unheard by the men. Suna was not a horrible place, she had went many times with her father on business trips, but it was too far from home for her tastes.

"Now why would we send her there? I didn't think anyone in the family lived out there." it was true, most of her family lived in Konaha.

"They don't but I received a call this afternoon from the mayor of Suna."

"The mayor? What did he want?"

"He read from the paper that Hiashi had died. Said they were college buddies back in the day. He wants to take care of hinata for us."

"What?! Why would he do that?"

"I'm not quite sure myself, but he said that it wouldn't be to much trouble considering he had three of his own and that he and his kids developed a fondness for her."

"Well I don't see what it could hurt. If no one wants her by the end of the week we'll call him to tell him when to pick her up"

Their voices started to drift away and that's when she slipped out the window.

And now Hinata was here. Alone. She continued to cry and hugging herself. She knew she would have to go to Suna. She knew none of the family wanted her, not even her dear uncle and cousin that she loved so deeply.

"It's not fair" she said in a whisper and more tears came out. She was thinking of her mother that passed away four years ago when her sister was born. She loved the snow and passed that feature to Hinata. They would watch the first snowfall together because her mother said it was always something magical. Hinata wanted to believe it so badly that it hurt, but once her mother died she stopped.

"It's not fair" a bit louder this time. She thought about the phone call she answered a week ago. A man said there was a horrible accident and that her father and sister were involved. She already knew what he was going to say before he said it. They were gone.

"IT'S NOT FAIR!" she yelled it making her voice echo throughout the forest. Now she was thinking how she was not wanted and how she was going to be sent away from her home. But what was really here for her now.

Her crying ceased and wiped away the residue from her face. She took one last glance at the snowy scene in front of her and walked away. The wind blew at her again making her short indigo hair come off of her face. She walked all the way home and went back to bed. She would start packing tomorrow.


A/N- Ok so that was it. My crappy beginning. I think I could have done better, but I'll improve over time, maybe. So if you want you can review my story if you see fit.

P.S. If you have nothing nice to say, then don't say it.
