Chapter 2- Abandonment Arc I
Hyuga Mansion
(Now Playing: Naruto Shippuden OST- Nightfall)
The battle with the Kyubi had left many scars upon Konoha. The atmosphere tense and it reeked of depression and anger. The sounds of men yelling in the distance, only seemed to increase the tenison. But there was a different kind of tension that was high in the air in many different places for many different reasons.
"We will not be keeping her!" A voice sounded across the halls of the Hyuga mansion, along with a pair of footsteps. Another followed after it.
"She is our daughter."
"SHE IS YOUR DAUGHTER!" This time the voice came filled with anger and irritation.
Hiashi Hyuga was a very prideful man. He was the head of his clan. Second to none when utilizing his clan bloodline. He was always expected to be the best and have the best, and he always gave the best. Now if you thought of yourself as a perfect example of a Hyuga, think of how would you feel if your oldest daughter, heir to the Hyuga Main house was born without the famed Byakugan the all members of the Hyuga family held.
Hiashi blood boiled as he spun sharply, his pale-lavender eyes glared with anger as he stared deeply at the small child lying in a bundle in his wife's arms. She had a very little patch of midnight blue hair on her head something she inherited from her mother, and her small chubby face giggled as she stared at him with those eyes. He turned back around glaring aimlessly at nothing, but couldn't shake the feel of disgust when he thought of the eyes his no, someone's daughter held.
The doctor attempted to clear it as a bloodline mutation, however the tests seem to show she may be blind. He sneered, the mere thought of it made his blood boil. Whoever heard of a blind Hyuga? While it's possible to overuse the Byakugan to the point of blindness, this was a newborn baby.
His wife jogged in front of him making him stop and look down at her. "Hiashi stop this right now. This is your child and you are going to accept that am I clear?" She spoke with her no bullshit voice, making Hiashi stared at her before releasing a sigh. His wife smiled for a moment.
"I'll have one of the branch household member bring her to the sealing room to put the curse mark on her, I'm sorry goodnight." With that he walked passed his frozen wife who was still in shock that she would never see her daughter.
At that thought she suddenly felt her world crash down on hear. She was gonna lose her daughter. She shook her head, she wasn't about to send her daughter into a life of enslavement, she looked down at her eldest child and made her decision. She turned quickly heading back to her living quarters, there she packed all of the baby's clothes and essentials in a bag.
She quietly walked through the empty halls using her experience as a Jonin to sneak past the doors of her fellow family members. Should she be caught it would be seen as an act of betrayal in the eyes of the Hyuga council.
'Ignorant fools! All of them.' She thought with a scowl. She couldn't understand how they would send an innocent little girl to work as a slave for your own family. To be frank, she couldn't understand how you could make your own family; flesh and blood, cook, clean, and work for you like a servant. To her it was unfathomable.
She made it to the front gates of the compound and what she saw made her eyes widen in horror, she would have covered her mouth unconsciously had it not been for the infant in her hands. She slowly backtracked her steps, turning swiftly before breaking into a jog as she looked for a different exit.
"My Lady, where are you headed?" She froze as her vision was suddenly filled with a group of the female members of the branch house. She clutched her child closer to her chest.
"Just out for a walk with her." She lied smoothly. She gathered looks from her fellow Hyuga clanswomen. She nearly slapped herself when she realized her mistake.
All lies are useless before the Byakugan. Receiving strange looks from her fellow Hyuga clanswomen, she released a low sigh.
"Come with me I'll explain, but not here." She said as she walked through them and continuing down the hall, with company in tow. She lead them to her secret room that she keep away from others, there she explained everything to Hiashi disowning his child to her trying to sneak out to get her daughter away from here.
She peered up from her child face as she looked at the reactions of the female branch members. Most were crying tears at the story, while most had a look of disdain on there face, and she could relate.
To disown your own offspring because of a generic problem that he or she had no control over?
One of the woman stood up abruptly, "I will help you escape and get her to safety. We were born into this life, she doesn't deserve this and she most definitely doesn't deserve to know her own father disowned her on the day she was born, for something that wasn't her fault." She spoke freely, with many agreeing with her. Hiashi's wife sat in shock that the Branch house would be willing to help a Main house.
After all, no one liked to be enslaved against there will. She was pretty sure no one wanted to be enslaved at all.
Thankfully, the hatred didn't seem to spread to far into the hearts of her fellow Hyuga. She stood her eyes blazing with determination as she set a goal in mind to send her child to safety.
"But my lady, where will you go?" questioned one of her clanswomen.
Hiashi's wife smiled, "I know someone.."
