Don't Own Naruto.

For anyone who's up to it, I have a challenge for a story on my profile. If anyone up to it, PM me for details.


A young Hyuuga girl looked up and smiled brightly. She had passed the Genin Exams, as was almost a full-fledged ninja. Things were finally looking up, until she accidentally bumped into a certain blonde jinchurriki.

"N-Naruto-kun?" She smiled up at blonde, not noticing the look of utter disdain he directed at her.

"Can't you take a hint? Leave me alone! I don't like you, and I never will! You're spineless, weak, and can't even manage to complete a sentence without stuttering. How can you expect to amount to anything, let alone become a effective kunoichi and clan head! I HATE YOU HINATA HYUUGA!" he yelled at the unsuspecting young girl.

Hinata looked at him with tears in her eyes, and slapped the blonde genin before running away blindly. "N-Naruto U-Uzumaki, you lousy CENSORED!" She shrieked, bumping into Sasuke, "Uchiha-san, I a-apologize. I m-must go!" He caught hold of her hand and she was jerked back,

"The Dobe...what has he done?" He asked with a calculating eye.

"N-Nothing. It's just-"
He grabbed her face made her look him in the eyes, "Tell me. Now." His voice left no room for argument, "He...H-He t-told m-me..."

"Calm down and stop stuttering."

She nodded, "He told me that he would never like me and that I need to take a hint. That I was weak and could never become a decent kunoichi, let alone the leader of my clan. I loved him! I really did..." she buried her face in the Uchiha's chest, sobbing, then quickly realized what she'd done, "U-Uchiha-san. Someone as weak and pitiful as me shouldn't be staining your shirt with her tears." She continued to cry as she walked away.

"Stop Hyuuga-san. Let...let me walk you home."

"Alright..." she suddenly felt fatigued and fainted in Sasuke's arms, forcing him to have to carry her home.

"Hn." he carried her home bridal-style and didn't feel pity for her, but he knew she could do so much better if she had a higher self-esteem. The Dobe didn't deserve her, anyway.


So what do you think? It's a good start, I hope.

REVIEW! Should Hinata and Sasuke be on a team with Naruto or Sakura? And should their sensei be Kakashi or should I give them a wild surprise? I'm like 10 seconds from making a decision so review quickly!
