Rebirth

Chapter 2: Expect the Unexpected

"Alright everyone, settle down," Hinata glanced nervously around, the girl she had met yesterday, Tenten kept staring at her along with another girl from the tryouts and a couple of guys. She didn't like it, they all just kept staring at her like she was some kind of ghost! "Now as some of you are unaware, this story is based off a legend from centuries ago, a couple of you know it and most of you probably don't," Kakashi shrugged, "But I don't think it really matters now so I'll just tell everyone which part they got, okay?" The Hyuga woman rose a brow, legend? She didn't know this story was based off a legend from a looooong time ago. "When I call your names, come foward and get your scripts from me.. Nara Shikamaru you will be Uncle Jen," One of those guys who had been staring at her walked up to get his script, "Yamanaka Ino you will be Auntie Momo, Jen's wife. Uzumaki Naruto," A blonde man stood up and grinned, "You will be Uchiha Shishou. Inuzuka Kiba you will be Uchiha Fugaku," Hinata recognized Kiba from Highschool and she smiled, at least she knew someone here, "Sabaku no Gaara you will be Uchiha Sasuke, Tenten, Kankuro and Rock Lee you will all be the Uchiha Elders. And lastly for what some of you have been waiting for," Hinata smiled hopefully at Kakashi, "Haruno Sakura you will be Umenokouji Hina," her heart sunk to her feet as Sakura woo'd and giggled, "For all of you that hasn't gotten a part, you will be part of crew." Sakura walked past Hinata and her hair swayed beautifully, she really started to not like this girl, Hinata thought. "Hinata Hyuga," she came out of sulking in her head and looked at the director, "You're Sakura's double."

"She's my what?" The pinkette nearly screamed.

"She's your double, as in stunt double or whenever you can't make it to film, she would be your replacement." Kakashi explained and Sakura scoffed.

"Believe me, I'll be there everyday," the pale skinny woman stared daggers at the Hyuga and then walked off.

"Shikamaru, Ino, Naruto, Kiba, Tenten, Gaara and Sakura," Kakashi suddenly said, "Will you all please follow me," They all followed after him and Hinata fiddled with her fingers, at least she got to do something. A loud bang caught her attention and she turned towards the person who had slammed the door. He was tall, dark hair and eyes. Kakashi came back from the back room and the others followed, they all were wearing black wigs and Sakura had a short black wig in a bobcut.

"Sasuke, I see you've decided to show up," the man's eye cringed as if he was smiling behind his mask, "Everyone, this is Sasuke Uchiha, he will play the part of Itachi Uchiha," the room errupted with murmurs and Hinata promptly wondered if Sasuke was related to Itachi somehow, and wasn't there someone named Sasuke Uchiha in the play too?

"What? An Uchiha playing Uchiha?" Naruto yelled and pointed his finger at Sasuke and Hinata knew one thing for sure: Naruto looked better blonde, most of the people that kakashi had brought back didn't really match the color black.

"Shut it Dobe," Sasuke said as he walked pass them and into the back room, then he slammed the door shut.

"Well what a great day this was huh?" Hinata turned to her side to see her old friends sitting next to her.

"Kiba! Shino!" She hugged both of them and smiled widely.

"Three years after not seeing us and all you have to say is just our names?" Kiba joked and she slapped him on the arms playfully, "How have you been little Hina?" He asked her from Shino's side.

"I've been fine," she smiled and nodded, "How about you guys?"

"Same as usual man," Kiba put his hands behind his head and their other friend just nodded and agreed with what Kiba said. "So I heard you got a part as Hina Umenokouji."

"I'm just Sakura's double though," Hinata frowned and stuck her lower lip out.

"Don't let her get to you," she looked up questionably at Shino.

"She's just trying to make you jealous," laughed Kiba, "Besides, I heard that she slept with someone to get that role." He laughed loudly and 'oh' was all Hinata could say to that. "Hey how about let's go get some late lunch together," Suggested Kiba, "Come on Hinata, you'll meet a couple of my new friends too," she smiled then nodded.

Hinata left with Kiba and his friends after Kakashi had them all sized up for costumes. They were all at a ribs restaurant and Hinata watched as Shikamaru put some more slices of pork onto the grill in the middle of the table. So far Hinata learned that Kiba was in a relationship with Tenten and Shikamaru and Temari was married. Gaara was as silent as Shino, it seemed he also had a glaring problem too. Kiba and his gang were the people that were staring at her earlier which unnerved Hinata because why would they be staring at her intensely like-

"Hey Hinata," Hinata looked at Tenten then around them, it seemed like everyone else had already left to what Hinata assumed was the washrooms, "Did you look it up?" She thought about last week then shook her head from side to side and Tenten sighed dramatically.

"What does old japanese folklore have anything to do with Reincarnation?" Hinata tilted her head to the side questionably.

"It has everything to do with it," the brunette woman glanced at her boyfriend from across the restaurant as he was exiting the bathroom with the other guys, "Look the Uchiha massacre happened about two centuries ago, it's not a legend, it's true. You have to look it up," she whispered the last part when Kiba walked back to the table.

"So what were you ladies whispering about?" He questioned and grinned. Shikamaru sat back down in this seat and so did Temari and the others. Hinata saw Tenten curtly nod to her friends and then nodded back the same way she had.

Was she missing something here?

Shikamaru cleared his throat and sat in a relaxed fashion in his chair, "I already took care of the bill," Hinata stared wide eyed at him, it must have cost him a fortune with all the food they were eating!

"I-I am so sorry that you had to pay for me Shikamaru," her head dipped down in an apologetic manner, "I will pay you back as soon as I-"

"It's alright you don't have to," he looked lazily to the side where his wife was.

"Bu-but-"

"He said it was okay so it's okay Lil' Hina so stop worrying like ya always do," Kiba punched Hinata on the arm and she fell out of her chair and he laughed nervously as people stared at him like he was some kind of abuser, "Sorry, I just keep thinking that you're still like yourself from highschool."

"How was she like in highschool?" Temari asked and got out of her seat to put her coat on. The others followed her example and walked out altogether as they left.

"Oh it was horrible back then because Hinata had super short hair like a dude and she looked like one too!" Hinata gasped loudly and pushed him, "She had no curves at all and she worked out everyday so it made her buff like a gorilla!"

"And you were bed wetter Kiba! You wet your pants every-" Kiba had put a hand over her mouth and Temari and Tenten wheezed out in laughter. Hinata removed his hand and finished her sentence, "You wet your pants every time you didn't have Mr. Binky with you!"

"I call a truce, I stop making fun of you and you will stop spilling secrets!" His right hand connected with hers and she smiled triumphently then looked at her watch.

"It's getting pretty late a-and I should be getting home soon," she smiled as she started splitting away from the group, "T-thank you all for a good time and thank you Shikamaru for paying for my bill," she bowed her head and started towards the subway.

"Goodbye Hinata!" Tenten called after her and Temari followed after. Hinata walked towards her apartment building down the busy streets, she didn't like staying out when it was starting to get dark. She searched her purse for her apartment keys and sighed when she accidently dropped it. Hinata bent down on her knees to pick up her items and a wind blew from behind her which made goosebumps on the back of her neck. She cocked her head and looked over her shoulder, there was just a wall; she hurridly grabbed her stuff and opened her door then slammed it with a sigh. Her bangs brushed to the side by itself and Hinata stared wide eyed at her surroundings, her apartment building was haunted for sure! The Hyuga quickly ran into her kitchen and grabbed a small cutting knife, after a couple of minutes she laughed to herself. She was going crazy and losing her marbles over hallucinating something that probably wasn't real.

Hinata sat on the floor and put her feet underneath the blanket on her table. She leaned onto the small table and closed her eyes. Something brushed against Hinata's toe and she giggled. Suddenly she was pushed onto her back and fell with a thud on the floor. Hinata couldn't move as she tried so hard to struggle, her eyes wandered around above her, there were people standing above her with their backs to her; she couldn't make out what their faces looked like but some of their shirts had wet spots on them and their arms and legs were pale blue. Some looked like they had rolled in dirt and the other's skin were covered with bruises and scratches, they all wore clothing like that blue person she had seen last week. Hinata felt something wet above her and she looked foward to be captured in someone else's soul less eyes. It's face was heart shaped and its eyes were gauged out, only leaving chunks of rotting flesh down his cheeks. Drips of something red fell rolled down his nose and onto Hinata's. All these people smell like dead fish.

"W-what do y-y-you want from me?" Hinata finally bit out, fresh tears came out of her eyes out of fright and her eyelids started feeling heavy. The last thing she saw was a red cresent on a white stem and the quiet whispers that screamed for help and freedom. Sleep overtook the girl's body as she fainted.

Just in case any of you don't know, Reincarnation is the name of the movie Kakashi is filming. And please don't look up the Uchiha massacre of old japanese folklore because that doesn't exist and you should know that.

Thank you for reading!
