Hidden Leaf Village, Konoha
… Day 1 …
We arrived in Konoha and I really wanted to see the new places, "Hiashi-sama? Can we look around?" I asked politely. He looked at me and shook his head, "First we must go to the Hyūga clan dojo." was his reply. A dojo? I guess we should do training at a dojo. When we walked to the dojo, I saw the coolest things ever! I wish I could stick around and all but why do I have to go to a dojo?
Before we entered there was a sign that said 'Hyūga Clan', were there any people inside? We finally entered after I examined the sign and there were people inside! One was about 1 year older than me, 1 that was about the same age as me and that last one was about 1 or 2 years younger.
"Ai, this is my nephew, Hyūga Neji." Hiashi introduced me to the boy with long brown hair. He sort of looked like me, "this is my daughter, Hyūga Hinata." Hiashi said introducing me to girl with short, dark blue hair. She looked shy so I smiled to break out her confidence, it sort of worked but at the same time it didn't. All that was left was a little girl that looked a little bit like Hiashi, "and this is Hinata's sister, Hyūga Hanabi. Now, Hinata, I want you to start training. The rest will watch." Hinata nodded and walked to the centre of the room.
I saw her fight Hiashi-sama and she ran fast but he was just way too fast and dodged them, I saw how fast he was and how slow Hinata-sama was. She really fight like me and fought like me. Although I was almost out of chakra when I fought him, Hinata is weaker than me, she's full of chakra and she's already losing. She already looks tired, I saw her breathing heavily, gasping for oxygen. It had only been about a few dodges and a couple of runs in a few minutes. I can she is weak, but she has a kind heart, she probably doesn't even want to fight, "Your foot work isn't good, Hinata you have done enough, now Ai, let's see you fight this time." said Hiashi-sama. Hinata-sama was still heavily breathing once she sat down. I knew Hiasha-sama would still be tough, maybe even tougher since we had a few stops on our way to Konoha. What should I do this time?
I should attack him while he's dodging! Brilliant! Aren't I a genius, well not really. It was almost impossible for a 6 year old like me to have such speed. Anyways, it's better said than done.
I ran towards him and got out a kunai knife from my mini bag and tried to stab him but not too hard, if it was possible, I could get him! Right when I was supposed to hit him, he dodged straight away, now this is my chance to try again!
While he was dodging I tried to punch him but he dodged again! My eyes widened for a moment and I just noticed that I was going to land on my face!
Too late, my face met the floor. Great strategy but slow speed. I should've learnt some techniques on our way to Konoha, guess I have to use my shuriken and kunai knives.
I got out my shuriken and swiftly threw them at Hiashi – what? I missed! How is that possible? He is just way too fast; I have to find a way to stop him! Although I can take it easy, this wasn't a battle or anything.
I ran towards Hiashi-sama again and struck out my palm and…..! I was able to push him backwards! He took a few steps back and breathed a little. He stood properly and said, "Ai, you have done well, we are done with our training for today. Ai, come with me," Hiashi said and walked into a room with a table and tea. "Yes." I replied. I sat down and drank some water instead.
"Ai, when you fought me just then I knew at that second that you are gifted unlike I thought last time." Hiashi-sama said.
"Really Hiashi-sama?"
"Yes, you are gifted with Byakugan. Your birth mother was from the Hyūga clan. But she left you in the Sand Village at the orphanage. She didn't want you to become a part of the Hyūga clan because of Byakugan. But I shall allow you to use it and become part of the Hyūga clan and but also a part of the Sand. Do want to learn how to use Byakugan?" Hiasha-sama explained. I gulped, was Hiashi-sama really telling me the truth? Was I a part of the Hyūga clan? Grandma Chiyo didn't tell me any of this. If I agreed, then I might learn more about my birth parents. I nodded.
"Great, we will train every day and soon I will teach you about the kekkei genkai." Hiashi-sama explained.
"Thank you Hiashi-sama!" I exclaimed. I walked out of the room and I saw Hinata so I ran to her and asked if she wanted to look around Konoha for a bit.
"I'm sorry, I can't. I can't go anywhere without chichi," replied Hinata, man I was really disappointed.
"It's okay Hinata-sama, you don't have to be sorry. I don't have an adult with me either so I probably shouldn't go too."
… Day 2 …
Hiashi-sama and I were training madly. If I ran towards him, he disappear!
"Okay Ai, you must learn to sneak up on your opponent without a single sound. You must be very swift, just watch." Hiashi-sama said and appeared right behind me.
"Okay, but how can I?" I asked.
"We must train until you can sneak up on me," replied Hiashi-sama. I nodded, this would take almost 4 days to learn!
"When will I be able to learn Byakugan like you told me you would teach me?"
"That is after you can disappear and re-appear behind your opponent," explained Hiashi-sama. What? Now I have to push myself to do this hard work, or else I won't be able to use Byakugan. We continued.
After a while we stopped and Hiashi-sama and I talked for a while. "Hiashi-sama? Do you really know who my birth parents are?" I asked. It was silent for a moment until Hiashi-sama replied, "Yes. In fact, you remind me much of your mother. She had the same indigo hair and eyes as you. It was strange for a Hyūga. Though she used the Byakugan to get stronger in many ways. I believe you could be just like her one day."
"Can you please tell me about my mother and father?" I begged.
"Yes, it all started 11 years ago. Hinata's mother and your mother were friends. I always saw them doing something together. The day I married Hinata's mother, and your father married your mother, Hinata's mother and your mother would still did something with each other every day. When you were born your mother was afraid you might get hurt if you used the Byakugan in some way so she ran away to the Hidden Sand Village and left you in the orphanage so you wouldn't get involved with anyone in the Hyūga clan. It was only 3 years ever since you were born and your mother died and your father was all by himself. I don't know where he is anymore." I was disappointed to hear that last part. Why would my father do something like that? It was a mystery.
… Day 7 …
Neji-kun, Hinata-sama and Hanabi-sama were watching my match with Hiashi-sama again. I had been doing a lot of training ever since day 2. I got stronger and faster, hopefully today I will be able to be even faster than Hiashi-sama.
I'm just a little tired, but that can't stop me from beating Hiashi-sama! On day 4 of training, Hiashi had to use all of his strength before I lost (which were a few minutes later). I was for sure, getting stronger; maybe today I will learn how to use Byakugan!
I ran towards him, but only to re-appear behind him! Yes! I finally learnt how to sneak up on opponents! I stopped and so did Hiashi-sama. "Ai, you have learnt to be that swift that I almost didn't realize you were there. Now it is time for you to use Byakugan." Said Hiashi-sama.
"Thank you Hiashi-sama! Thank you!" I thanked with such a big smile. It was more like, I was so excited that I couldn't let it all out! All I could do was smile? No way! I had to cheer! But I just couldn't, until….I let the excitement all out! I cheered and Hinata-sama and Hanabi-sama smiled.
… Day 10 …
I learnt how to use Byakugan in 3 days! (I'm not going to explain all of that stuff about when you're using Byakugan) It was finally time to go back to Suna! Wait a minute! I didn't get to meet anyone or even walk around the place! I was stuck at the dojo all of this time! But we were here to train though.
"Hiashi-sama? Now can I look at this place? Please!" I begged.
"I suppose so, you've earned the right to be on your own." replied Hiashi-sama. Yeah! Finally, now I get to meet new people! "But don't forget that we have to leave tomorrow!" Hiashi-sama told me before I ran out of the dojo.
I was finally out of that dojo and get to walk around in new places, hopefully I won't get lost.
Konoha Streets
I walked by a couple of shops but I was interested for some reason. Either this place was boring or else I wasn't in the mood to be looking around.
I passed an academy that looked like Suna's. I was examining it for a while until a boy came up to me and blurted immediately, "Hey! Are you new here?"
"Uh, yeah! I'm from the Hidden Sand Village. I came here to train with someone." I replied.
"Hm, right. I know you're not from here by your scent," He sniffed me? Did I smell bad or something?
"It's rude to smell someone out! What kind of a freak are you?"
"My name is Inuzuka Kiba, and you are?"
"Hyūga Ai, say, who's that?" I asked pointing to a dog in Kiba's jacket.
"Oh, that's Akamaru. And you don't really seem like a Hyūga to me. One of my classmates uh, Hinata has violet eyes. You have indigo ones and indigo hair."
"That's the point of my name!" I exclaimed. It was true, Ai meant indigo. "Uh, Kiba? Do you go to this academy?"
"Sure do. Why, are you jealous because you don't go to an academy like this?" he smirked.
"What? Idiot! I'll have you know that I go to a better academy than this!"
"You're funny, I like you." he said chuckling. What did he just say? He…likes…me? I suddenly felt my cheeks getting hotter by the second.
"Um, was that supposed to be a compliment…or something?"
"You're clueless aren't you? You're cute, get it?"
"Are you…serious? You…like…me?"
"No, just seeing if you're that gullible," Gullible? "You know, I think, you actually are kind of…cute."
"I'm not falling for that again."
"It's not a joke this time," Kiba said. "When are you going to leave?" he asked changing the subject.
"I'm leaving tomorrow and I might not come back, I only came here to do some special training with the Hyūga clan."
"I see. Well let's spend some time together, I'll show you around the village." Was Kiba really offering me all of this? Was this a joke? If it is I don't think it's funny!
… Midday …
Kiba showed me around the village and I actually saw some interesting things unlike last time I walked around.
"Aren't your parents going to get mad that you didn't tell them about any of this and you skipped class?" I asked while we ate ramen.
"Nah! I'm way too cool to go to that place, it's just boring at times." replied Kiba acting all cool. It sort of made me chuckle.
"What's so funny?" Kiba asked.
"No, it's nothing. You know what? You're kind of cute too, especially Akamaru." I replied patting his head while I saw him sort of blush.
"Are you really going to be gone for that long? I really would like it if you were here with me, you seem cool." Kiba said.
"I don't know, I suppose at some time I might visit!" I said smiling.
How could I not come back and visit, he's cute!
Please review, I'll give you cupcakes…
