PART 4

Everything was burning. Since practically everyone was drunk, they had slow reaction.

Men in black kimonos and white masks appeared. This time, more numerous.

Sasuke gritted his teeth, "These guys again."

Kakashi who was right next to Sasuke, said, "You know these guys?"

"They attacked me and Hinata on the way home."

Suddenly a shuriken was in front of Sasuke's face. Before he could react, a kunai deflected it.

Hinata had her arm stretched out. I don't have my katana… she and Sasuke realized.

Sasuke cried, "Chidori!" and lunged at a man who was running at him. He killed the man, but another masked person came up behind him.

Suddenly, Naruto punched the man aside. The man crumbled and didn't move. Red chakra shone in Naruto's eyes.

"I'll kill these guys for ruining my wedding."

"Well, it will be something you won't forget." Sasuke replied with a smirk. The sake was wearing off.

But for those who had drunken a lot, they weren't doing to good. Blood streamed down Sakura's arm as she swung her fist at the chest of an enemy.

Hinata kicked a man away in the face, and used Jyuuken rapidly on another. 7 men were blown away with a small Kaiten.

She cried, "Raiton: Judgement!" Lightning poured from the sky striking all that she targeted.

Sasuke saw her falter a little bit, and saw blood form at the corner of her mouth. This is too much for her! She's never taken it this far! he thought with panic.

He caught her as she dropped to her knees in exhaustion. "Stop. This is too much for you." he ordered.

Hinata gave him a determined look, but it wasn't just determined. It was almost like murderous intent. He was taken back as she said, "No, this isn't my limit. I will keep fighting."

White chakra laced around her, and lunged out at the nearest enemy. As if the enemies were connected together. The chakra spread to other enemies, and they all crumbled.

A hole was in their chests causing many people to cover their mouths in horror. Eyes turned on Hinata, who seemed indifferent to their looks. Sasuke was also surprised. She had never used that jutsu to such an extent.

Tsunade calmly walked up to a dead body and removed his mask. But the moment she touched him, he disintegrated along with all the other bodies.

Kakashi whispered something in Tsunade's ear, and she turned to Sasuke and Hinata with a glare.

"My office. Now."

Tsunade was furious. "You were attacked by these people before! Why didn't you mention it?!"

Sasuke replied coolly, "We thought it was nothing. Besides, we forgot about it."

"Well, do you have any idea why their after you two?!"

They said nothing. Hinata hadn't spoken a word since she had used the Angel's Decree (the jutsu with the white chakra). She seemed pretty shaken too.

Sakura spoke harshly, "Well, they are the last Uchiha and Hyuuga."

Naruto spoke quietly, "That's not their fault. It's not Sasuke's fault he had a bloodthirsty brother."

Sakura retorted, "Well, what about Hinata? She killed her entire clan! What would Neji say about that? Have you every thought of that before, Hinata?"

Sasuke held his breath. He feared Hinata would have that murderous madness in her eyes again.

She spoke coldly, "You're right. There are countless reasons of why I killed all the Hyuugas. I am not Hyuuga. I have their fightning style, and their eyes, but I am not Hyuuga. You may think I am mad to kill one of the most powerful clans, the people who bore me. But I have no love for those people. I don't care what their fate is."

Her words angered Naruto and he cried out, "What about Neji?? Did you even think about him while you killed your father?"

She regarded him with empty eyes, but said nothing.

Sasuke wanted to defend her, but he couldn't say anything. He knew how she felt. He didn't care if his brother was dead. He didn't think about what his father, who loved Itachi so much, would say. Actually, he knew what his father would say. His father would have said that Itachi was a prodigy, to defeat one of the must illustrious clans.

Tsunade sighed. "Hinata and Sasuke. I will not assign you two any missions until this matter is resolved. You cannot leave the village for any reason."

Sasuke finally said, "You're going to have ANBU watch us aren't you."

Tsunade nodded. "I have to. This is a serious case. Even though you two are stronger than ANBU captains, and can take care of yourselves, this is necessary."

Sasuke and Hinata were stronger than ANBU captains, but Tsunade would never let them become ANBU captains because of their past.

The four went for a walk around the village. Naruto was an ANBU captain, and Sakura was head of the hospital, so the couple kept an eye on Hinata and Sasuke.

Naruto muttered, "I can't believe the wedding was ruined. But its definitely something I won't forget."

Sakura said nothing but glared at Hinata. Finally she spoke up, "Hinata, how could you kill those people that way? It was horrible! Can't you feel?"

Hinata curtly said, "I was once Akatsuki."

"I know, but you're also a Konoha ninja! Couldn't you have any mercy? Wouldn't Sasuke?"

Naruto laughed. "Sasuke? Yeah right. He'd kill without thinking about it. That's why Sasuke and Hinata were made for each other!"

Sakura stopped walking and turned to Sasuke, who didn't look back at her as he continued walking with Hinata. Grudgingly she muttered, "I guess that's true." Then she raised her voice, "But still how could you two do that? It's terrible."

Hinata and Sasuke looked over their shoulders with indifferent looks on their faces that were so alike, they were scary.

"It's life." They said shortly.

When Sasuke and Hinata got back home, they collapsed on the bed with a heavy sigh.

"Sasuke…I'm sorry." Hinata said quietly.

"For what?"

"The way I was earlier. I felt like it wasn't me thought. It was something else. Something deeper."

Sasuke pulled her gently into his arms. "It's alright. I understand."

She began to cry softly. "What's happening to me? I feel that to release my hatred, I have to…kill. What if I kill those close to me?"

Sasuke kissed her tears and whispered, "You're the only person I'll ever let kill me. Because I will never be able to fight you."

Hinata closed her eyes. "I will not kill you. I can't. Even if I have gone insane. If you die, there's no purpose in my life."

Sasuke replied, "Hinata, just be careful with the jutsu you use. Don't strain yourself. The snake's healing ability is compatible with your body, so don't push it."

She nodded, and he pulled her closer. He placed his lips over hers, and kissed her passionately.
