Saving Me
Chapter 1
Hinata's Pov:
Thick grey clouds loomed above the sky, wind ferociously blowing while thunder struck heavily echoing its boom from miles and miles away. I was running through the deep dense darkness of the forest following my prey. I leaped from branch to branch quietly as I could, all you could see were the leaves gently fall down from where I was before. He knew I was right behind him. A little further up ahead was a clearing, nothing but grass and dirt. He stopped and so did I. He stood in the middle looking directly at me from where I was perched on the branch. Although I was covered by the leaves from the other branches in front of me I could still see every movement he made, whether it be a twitch of his muscles or a blink of an eye, he didn't escape my sight.
I'm Hinata Hyuga, ex-heiress of the Hyuga clan and now Anbu captain Neko. I'm 22 years old and live on my own. Six years ago I was known as timid weak girl who had a huge crush on Konoha's number one knucklehead ninja Naruto Uzumaki, but all that changed when I was rejected by him, humilated by clan and looked down upon from others. I've changed since then. I worked my ass off during that time to get to where I am now and I'll be damned if someone tries to make me look pathetic again. I'm currently on a solo mission assigned to me by the Fifth Hokage, to track down none other than the infamous...Sasuke Uchiha. After the fourth great ninja war he never came back. He was still a missing nin.
Now we both remained locked on each other, neither one of making a sound or a move. He was cunning and dangerous, I knew not to expect this to be easy but then again nothing that happens to me is really easy. He had his sharingan activated and chakra flaring all over the place. He was going to make his move soon. He raised his hand into the air up high and thunder came down on him. In that instant he was gone and reappeared behind me with his katana to my back as he spoke. "You'd think that your precious village would understand by now that I have no intention of coming back, yet they're so persistent all because of Naruto. I find it silly of them to only send you to come and get me. Do you not know who I am?" He then fully sheathed his katana in me.
"Your right. I don't understand why they are so persistent, but it's not my job to question my duties as an Anbu captain..,but don't think they sent you another amateur to kill because Sasuke Uchiha, You Do Not Know Who I Am." I said calmly as my water clone dispersed. I stood standing where the Uchiha was originally and he came down to meet me. He fell into my trap. I quickly did some hand seals as it began to rain. "Water style: Twin Water Dragon Jutsu!" From the rain two archaic beasts formed and began to play a cat and mouse chase with the Uchiha. Step one complete. I had two other clones that hid behind the tree's using the dragons to set up a wire trap for when he came to rest again at the middle.
Just like I predicted he used the lightning to his advantage and destroyed my jutsu. Looking irritated he turned to face me with a chidori in hand. "Your really annoying this ends now." He growled. He ran towards me and with the speed of the light he appeared in front of me ready to blast my face. I moved my face to the side as my mask was knocked off and jabbed his ribs. This knocked the wind out of him but recovered instantly and pulled me by my arm as he kneed me in the gut and hurled me across the field.
I coughed up some blood and spit it out. I looked up at him and he started cackle. "So they sent you to retrieve me. What a joke, the weak Hyuga. I guess the village is short on strong ninjas after all." I felt my anger rise. Step two had been complete. I stood up and commanded my clones to trap him in with the wires. He didn't seemed shocked only amused. "You think this is going to stop me." He tried to use his chakra to no avail and he looked back at me. I slowly strided to him until we stood toe to toe from each other. I slapped his katana from his hand, clinking to the ground while I kicked his shins so that he was now on his knees looking up at me. "I'm not the same person you and everybody else looked down on before Uchiha-san. Things have changed and your biggest mistake was letting your guard down against a Hyuga you thought you once knew before. I closed of your major chakra pathways when I jabbed not only your ribs but in your stomach where the source of your chakra rises. Your useless now." I said and delivered some final blows to knock him out and Immobolize his body and bloodline limit.
Normal Pov:
"Lady Tsunade! She's arrived." Shizune screamed at the busty blonde woman who was in distress from all the paper work. She looked up and questioned, "Was the reconnaissance mission a complete?" Shizune nodded and answered, "Even better she's captured him and brought him back to the village." Tsunade's jaw dropped at this information. Her job was just to find out about the whereabouts of the missing nin. "Where is she? What are both their statuses?" "Hinata is fine but I can't say the same for Sasuke, she's immobilized him completely, he cant use his chakra or move his body right now. It's going to be hell once he wakes up though I can tell you that much." Shizune replied. "Good. Inform Kakashi and the rest of team seven to report to my office immediately as well as Hinata and her prisoner. Go!" With that Shizune scurried away.
Half hour later everyone was gathered in the Hokage's office all surprised and shocked to hear that Sasuke Uchiha has come back. The only one that remained indifferent was Hinata who stood clad in her uniform with the unconscious Uchiha on the ground. "Okay now that everybody is here it's time to discuss Sasuke's punishment.." Tsunade looked towards Hinata and nodded. Hinata picked up the former avenger by his collar and pressed some pressure points on his neck. She let go of his neck and he fell back to floor face down. Everyone just looked at her wondering if she just killed him or something. "He's fine. He is just faking it because he can't accept he got his ass handed to by me. Isn't that right Uchiha?" She kicked his head and he looked up furiously. Everyone but Hinata and the Fifth took a step back.
"Kakashi, Naruto hold him up." Tsunade ordered. "Your back teme! I was shocked when Shizune came to inform me and Sakura-chan. I'm so glad!" Naruto gleefully said. "Shutup dobe! I hate this village and everyone in it. When I get free I'll finish what I started." Sasuke threatned. The Fifth Hokage walked up to him and spoke. "Uchiha Sasuke, you will do no such thing for as long as I remain Hokage...Now as for punishment you will be kept within konoha boundaries for a year.. within three months evaluation we will see if you are trusted enough to go out on missions, but in the mean time we'll get you settled in and you will be placed under watch...once your punishment is over everything from the Uchiha clan will be passed onto you."
"Hn. I could care less about possessions, what this village did to my clan is unforgivable." He seethed with pure hatred.
"Shutup!..." everyone's attention including Sasuke's was now fully on Hinata. "I'm tired of listening to your childish rants...those who have harmed your clan aren't the same people as of now. They have long passed away or were killed by your hand, so I don't see why you still pursue that stupid goal of yours. Your so caught up in the past that you can't realize all the people who are willing to fight for you and be at your side. I agree this village was in the wrong wiping out your whole entire clan but I wont be like everyone else and pray for your safety.. your a big boy now and you know the consequences of your actions. It's time for you to take responsibility for what you do and begin to really think..Is this what your clan would really want?..tch you put the great Uchiha name to shame."
Anger rose dangerously in Sasuke's eyes as he was being humilated by Hinata. "What would a useless bitch like you know about my suffering!? You have a clan, a family... you have no right to tell me what to do! You know nothing!" He screamed. "Your wrong. You know nothing." She calmly said.
"Enough! Both of you shutup right now! Hinata since you were the one to capture Sasuke he will be under your watch. He will be living under the same roof as you. Money from his clan will be given to you so you can spend it on his necessities. I hope you don't let your opinion of my decision affect your duties as Anbu Captain, I expect better from you." Tsunade gave her final decision and tjere was no room for objections.
"Baa-chan why cant he be under our teams supervision?" Naruto argued anyway. "Because, your team has a soft spot for him and the last thing I need to hear is that he slipped up on you guys because your emotions got in the way of your judgement..," she looked towards Sasuke who seemed to simmer a bit "As to ensure you wont try anything funny a seal will be placed on both of your wrists..this will disable your ability to equip your bloodline limit and chakra, it can even go as far as to making you a useless ninja permanently. Hinata and I will be the only ones who will be able to activate it."
She held his hand up one at a time and preformed some seals. The mark disappeared once it was placed. Hinata walked right up and released his body free to move around. When he got the chance he grabbed her by her neck and slammed her into a wall. "Sasuke! Release her, don't do this!" Naruto pleaded as he grabbed his arm. Kakashi moved in as well. "Listen to Naruto, don't make this worse than it has to be." He added. "Come on Sasuke please stop!" Sakura cried.
He didn't pay attention to them. "What are you waiting for Uchiha? You want to kill me go ahead, Im not going to activate the seal..if this is how you think your problems will be solved do it." She said without wavering. After a while he released his grip. He looked at everyone and left.
"Hinata-chan are you okay?" Naruto asked worriedly trying to place a hand on her only to have it shoved away. "Don't touch me Uzumaki-san. I can handle myself." She left as well. "Lady Tsunade I don't think it's a good idea to have Hinata and Sasuke live under the same roof." Sakura tried to convince the hokage to change her decision but she stood by it no matter what team seven had to say. "Hinata can handle it I have faith in her." Was all she said and dismissed them.
Sasuke's Pov:
I couldn't stand being in there with them. I left the tower and sat outside some benches looking up at the sky. The dark grey clouds that were once there now flowed away revealing the sun's brightness welcoming the beginning of the day. Anger was still flowing through my veins, what did she know? That pathetic Hyuga has some nerve putting me on the spot in front of everyone, I just felt like ending her life when I had the chance. Something in her eyes though showed no fear or emotion when she was caught in that predicament. After a while I felt her presence before me. I ignored it and continued to look at the clouds. "Lets go Uchiha-san. I'll show you where you will be staying from here on out." She comanded.
"Hn. I have no intrest living within the Hyuga compound." I retorted. "Who said anything about the Hyuga compound? Im no longer a part of that clan, I live in my own apartment." She said and began to walk away. Hmm so she's been kicked out, fool. I got up off the bench and followed far behind her. I still cant believe I was captured by the same girl from back in the academy days. She was always weak, she would be bullied and frowned upon, the only thing she could do then was cry. Now she's different more authoritative and confident in her skills.
Once we arrived at the door she tossed something shiny to me. I caught it with ease and looked at it, it was a key. "That's the key to my home don't lose it cause I'm not going to get you another one. My mission is to keep a watch on you but it doesn't mean that I have to have you on a leash. Your a grown man you may leave and come back as you wish but the instant I feel your chakra spike I'll be there when you least expect it..." she said this as she opened the door. We walked inside "Welcome to my home as you can see this is my living room further down the hall is the kitchen and to the right there will be another hall that leads to two bedrooms opposite from each other, mine is on the right and yours will be on the left, each have their own bathrooms so don't worry about having to share anything. The rest you can explore on your own... oh and before I forget here is your money, Im also not going to financially watch over you, its your money do what you want with it." With that she left me and headed towards the kitchen.
Her apartment wasnt anything I expected it to be. I imagined it being run down and roach infested, but I guess being Anbu Captain has its perks. The inside was painted in a warm beige color with dark furniture that contrasted perfectly against each other, it was very spacious and not to crowded. During my exploration of the apartment I also saw it had a little spacious backyard that had an area for training and on the other side some of her gardening stuff. It was alright. Once I finished I headed into the kitchen where I found her stuffing her face with cinnamon rolls. She offered me one but I glared at with disgust and she took the hint.
Once she finished she spoke again. "Lets go." I didnt move from where I was. She huffed in irritation" We need to get you some clothes and other toiletries, because I don't have any for you so lets go." "Hn." Was all I said and we left.
I hated going out. People were staring and cowering in fear as I walked by. I was this deadly dangerous plauge to everyone but to Hinata it just seemed normal. I wondered why I let myself get into this mess. Im a 23 year old person being babysat by the person I hate the most at this moment and can't do a single damn thing without having my power being ripped away. How I wish to destroy her, this was all her fault. I was still angry at the way she talked to me, acting like she had me figured out and making fun of the way I acted. She didn't know shit. I wanted my clan back just having their possessions didn't mean a single thing. It doesn't bring back family. As I continued to think things I felt myself become more distanced from this horrendous village.
She came to a stop and looked towards me. "Go buy what you need I'll be back, I have some things to do real quick..meet me back home when your done." And she vanished. I bought some plain colored colored clothes that mostly consisted of blue, black, and white and not many toiletries just the main necessities everybody needs shampoo, a toothbrush, toothpaste, and thats about it. While I was walking back Naruto and the rest of the rookie nine met up with me. I was in no mood to socialize.
" Hi Sasuke-kun! Out shopping I see. Do you want hang out with us for dinner tonight at BBQ, it can be like old times again." Sakura cheerfully offered. "Yea Teme! Just like old times!" Naruto bellowed out. "I have no intentions of reconnecting with any of you pathetic losers. Now get lost." I snarled. "Hey you better watch what you say Uchiha. Do anything that will harm Hinata an-" I cut off Kiba as he began to rant. "And you'll do what? Do you think you stand a chance against me? Dont make me laugh you stupid mutt." Naruto stood in the way as Kiba tried to lunge at me. "Maybe some other time.." Naruto laughed nervously and I walked away.
Once I arrived back in the apartment I went towards the room I was occupying. I put the stuff I had bought away and noticed a at least ten boxes on my bed with a note closest to the edge. It was from the Hyuga. "Hn." I read the contents of the paper:
Uchiha-san,
These boxes that you see contain clothes specifically for you. They were kept at the Hyuga compound for years when the Uchiha and Hyuga were close. Anyway I thought maybe you'd want them. I left to go do an errand it might take a day or two.
-Hinata
P.s. I left some food for you to heat up if you get hungry.
I crumpled the note and flung it somewhere in the room. I opened the boxes and put the clothes away as well. I took a shower and donned a dark blue shirt with the Uchiha crest on the back and some black shorts. It was from one of the boxes she had found. This didn't change anything though. I ignored the food she had left out for me and just laid on my bed. This is going to be one hellish year.
That's it! What do you think so far!? Is it good, bad, horrible, awesome? Let me know! Please review and give me your opinion! It's much appreciated! :).. oh and a question too. How would you guys feel if Itachi came back, let me know as well. Until Next time! Bye! :)
