' Hinata-san, why are you here? Will you tell me or will I have to force it out of you?'
Hinata, embarrassed at him finding her so easily, stuttered out, 'U-Um, S-Sasuke-san-'
However, just before she could finish, she heard another sound coming from outside the village. She tensed. Sasuke, noticing the change in her demeanour, turned to look at the direction she was facing. Just before he could turn, he felt a kunai slice through the air, missing him by a hair's width.
' What in the world-?' came his response.
Quickly, he took out a kunai and Hinata did the same. Activating both their bloodlines, they scanned their surroundings.
'Hinata, do you notice anything different?'
Shocked at the prospect of him actually talking to her civilly, she shook her head. Sasuke sighed a second later, and the duo both deactivated their bloodlines. However, the moment they did that, a voice broke through the silence.
' Well, well, well, look at what we have here. The sole Uchiha with the weakest Hyuga, much more, the heiress! I'm sure Orochimaru-sama would be pleased with me when I bring the two of you back.'
Hinata shivered as she caught a glimpse of the speaker. Unkempt red hair ran through her back, black marks appearing on her body, and a sinister smile to match it. Turning to Sasuke to gauge his reaction, hoping that he would be as terrified as her's, she was terribly disappointed. Instead of shivering, the Uchiha stood proud and tall. The only indication of something changing was his sharingan being activated. Hinata mentally slapped herself for not doing that sooner, and she activated her's too.
Taking a deep breath and closing her eyes, she started to build up chakra for her bloodline. However, another voice soon broke through the silence.
'Hey, hey, hey! Tayuya! Not waiting for us and planning to take all the glory to yourself? What a selfish little girl!'
This time, a man with black hair appeared. Having his hair up in a ponytail, and six arms, he was surely a sight for the overwhelmed Hyuga. Thinking through her plan carefully, she thought, ' Hm...maybe if Sasuke took the guy and I took the girl, we could have a fighting chance?'
However, what she did not expect, was a third voice mixing in with the duo.
'Hey, wait up! I'm still not done with my chips yet!'
Managing to conceal her shock at the third member's appearance, she silently groaned.
'Oh dear...what should we do now?'
Deeply immersed in her own thoughts, she failed to listen to the conversation Sasuke was currently having with them.
' What is the meaning of this? I am already on your side.' Came the voice of Sasuke Uchiha.
Shocked at this, the navy haired girl, slowly turned her head towards the boy, the one who she thought was Naruto's friend. Noticing her staring, he turned to her with a wolfish smirk.
'What? This is the main purpose of you stalking me, right? To find out what I've been doing these past few days. Well, now you know. I have been training with them in secret. However, it is not a secret any longer.'
Tongue tied, Hinata could only blink.
' I am joining Orochimaru. This will be my last night here in Konoha. Tell Tsunade for me. Oh, and Hinata? Make it harder for me to catch you next time.'
Flinching at the cold and dead tone, she stood as tears began prickling her eyes and stared at him. Rubbing at her moist eyes occasionally, hoping that they would not notice her tears threatening to fall. Unfortunately, they did.
Each laughing in pure mirth at the kunoichi's agony, they slipped away.
