Broken
Prologue


She stood in front of the destroyed main gate of Konoha.
She was terrified, couldnt believe her eyes.
Hinata, breathing heavily, after 2 weaks A-mission of hunting the target, came home.
The gate was a ruin, and not one building was in a sufficient condition.
She ran through the empty streets, with disbelief in her eyes, towards her home. But there was no building, only a
giant crater.

"Hinat..", said a weak voice behind her.

Turning around, she saw her crush, leaning against a tree coughing blood.

"NARUTO!", she shouted, running towards him, enormous despair bubbling inside her.

Naruto fainted in front of her. She managed to catch him and put him down softly.
Studying his injurries, she noticed crying, that without serious medical treatment, Naruto would die soon.

Naruto opened his eyes. Hinata smiled weakly. Once again she couldnt believe how endless his eyes were.
He wanted to say something, but was too weak to say anything loud enough.
She lowered her head a bit to hear what he wanted to say.

"Hi..na..t..chan..", Naruto could feel his consciousness decreasing.

"N-Naruto-k-kun! P-Please dont speak!", said Hinata sobbing horribly.

"I..want...ed.. to... co..n..fess some...thing..."

Hinata felt dieing with him.

"Hina...ta...chan... i... love... you..", said Naruto, closing his eyes.

"NARUTO!!"

Hinata couldnt feel his heartbeat anymore.
Enormous exasperation pumping through her veins.
She sit there, holding him in her arms, crieing tears of sorrow.

After an eternity...
a dangerous and calm voice said next to her...

"Never let your guard down"

Before she could feel a Kunai between her lungs, she caught a look of the human.

It was Oruchimaru.


Then she woke up.
