"Hinata-chan, why? Why are you doing this? We're your friends!" A young voice spoke to her. She looked in their direction seeing it was one of her childhood 'friends', Kiba with Akamaru sitting in his coat like usual.
"You were never my friends. That was just an act, I never trusted any of you for a second. Sadly, you all trusted me and now look what has happened. This is why you can't trust anyone, Kiba-kun." Hinata stated, her voice like a knife dipped in venom, slashing a hole through Kiba's heart. He had trusted her with his whole being, his whole life, yet that trust was never returned.
Kiba couldn't believe this, he was going to die like the rest of the village. This isn't the Hinata he knew, she would never do something like this.
"I hope you're ready to die Kiba-kun, you'll be joining everyone else." Hinata's voice pulled Kiba from his thoughts as her words sunk in.
"Hinata-chan, it doesn't have to end like this." Kiba tried to protest, anything to keep him alive. Although he knew nothing would work, it was still worth a try.
"I'm afraid it does, Kiba-kun. Say goodbye." Hinata said, pulling her sword out and stabbing it deep into Kiba's heart before he even knew what was happening, he couldn't keep up with her speed. She looked around at the bloodstained bodies of the village inhabitants, thoroughly happy with what she accomplished.
Hinata jolted awake, almost falling out of her bed. She didn't know what to make of this nightmare, it was like the last one, staying in her mind and haunting her even when she wasn't dreaming. This time she wasn't killing an innocent civilian, she was killing Kiba, who trusted her like no other. He was like a brother to her fake personality. She didn't understand why these nightmares haunted her, but she wished they would stop.
She was afraid of what the next one would reveal to her, what it would show her doing, who she was killing. She would dwell on what the cause of these nightmares were later, she didn't have the time right now. Kisame would be here soon to get her so she could get briefed on the mission she had to go on with him and Itachi. She had been dreading this mission since last night when Itachi told her about it.
There was nothing she could do about it though, it was too late to back out now. She was part of the Akatsuki now and there was no going back, she would have no where to go.
Hinata was lost in her thoughts and didn't realize that she told Kisame to come in until he was standing in front of her, trying to get her attention.
"Hinata-san!!" Kisame yelled, waving his hand in front of her face.
"What? Oh, Kisame-san, gomen. I had some things on my mind."
"Right, well Itachi's waiting for us so hurry up and get ready. Change into something that you can do a mission in. We'll be going straight to it." Kisame explained to her.
"Hai, Kisame-san."
"I'll be waiting outside for you. And again, hurry."
"I will, I will. Now go so I can get ready."
"Hai, hai." Kisame mumbled as he walked out of her room to wait on her. Hinata walked over to the closet in her room, and looked inside, trying to find something to wear for the mission. She didn't know what she would like for none of these clothes were hers, but she didn't complain. She saw there were several jackets she could wear but those would only slow her down.
She also noticed some mesh undershirts, which she decided to wear. She pulled out a pair of black leather skin-tight pants placing them on the bed. Next she pulled out a black tank top with a mesh tank top to go underneath it. She saw a beige jacket that had the sleeves cut off and pulled it out, noting how well it went with what she had already chosen. The jacket had a few pockets on the front where she could store some of her weapons.
She looked back farther in the closet noticing a pair of black gloves. The gloves went past her elbow ending in the middle of her upper arm. Hinata also saw a pair of black boots in the closet as well, so she pulled them out. They were like her regular sandals at the bottom, leaving her toes open, but the thing that was different was that they stopped right below her knees. The boots had several metal clasps going up to make sure that they stayed in place. She decided to wrap a few bandages around her mid-thigh for her kunai pouch, also putting some bandages at the top of her gloves to hold them in place.
Hinata smiled as she looked at her chosen outfit and took everything into the bathroom to change. She came back out with her other clothes in hand and folded them up, putting them in the closet for safe keeping so she wouldn't lose them. She had to remember to wash them later on, they were still dirty from when she left the village. She looked back in the mirror one last time, nodding in approval of her outfit choice. She then grabbed her kunai pouch, fastening it around the bandage part of her thigh. She looked inside making sure she had enough weapons.
Hinata started to walk towards her door but felt like she was forgetting something important. She looked around and saw her sword, she almost forgot to take it with her. She picked it up and secured it onto her back, the strap coming around her front and she locked it in place, making sure it wouldn't fall. Putting her hair up into a ponytail, she walked towards her door and opened it, seeing Kisame leaning against the wall.
"Kisame-san, I'm ready now." Kisame opened his eyes as he tilted his head up to look at her. He nodded his approval of her outfit and smiled.
"Good, that outfit will be perfect for the mission, it won't slow you down or anything. Now let's go, Itachi is waiting for us." Hinata nodded and followed Kisame to the front room where Itachi was sitting on the couch waiting. He looked over at Hinata, noticing how good she looked in that outfit.
"Alright, now that you're here, it's time you found out what the mission is. Sit and I'll explain." Hinata nodded and sat across from him, listening intently.
"The mission that we will be going on will not be simple. We must go to Konoha and find the Kyuubi, at any costs. We must bring the Kyuubi back to the base so it can be extracted." Hinata's eyes had gotten ten times bigger upon hearing this.
"And one more thing, Hinata."
"What is it?"
"After we have the Kyuubi in our hands, we have to destroy the village, leaving no evidence that we were there." Hinata only nodded, afraid that her voice would be too shaky. Her nightmare was coming true, she had to massacre her village and take Naruto back. She was not really scared that she had to do it, just surprised. She smirked in thought, realizing that she could get her revenge on everyone in the village at once. She had been hoping for revenge ever since she left, and now it was going to happen.
Her smirk only got bigger knowing that she could have the pleasure of ending her so called 'friends' lives, letting them breathe their last breath of life. This mission was getting better and better by the second. She couldn't wait to leave so that she could massacre the village, so she could marvel in the blood-covered bodies lying around her. Her smirk never once faded as she thought these pleasant thoughts, turning her attention back to Itachi.
"When do we leave?"
"In two hours. This gives you time to train a little bit beforehand, and it gives you time to make sure you have everything that you need. Meet back here in two hours or else you get left behind. Understood?" Itachi asked her.
"Hai, Itachi-san. I understand." She responded.
"Good. Now, you're free to do whatever you please before we leave. Enjoy, and don't forget to come back." She nodded as they both disappeared, leaving her alone with her thoughts. She was overjoyed to be able to finally get revenge on her pitiful village. She figured she had time to practice a few of her techniques before they had to leave. She smirked to herself as she walked down the hall towards the training grounds that Kisame showed her earlier. Walking to the center of the grounds, she got in her Jyuuken stance, activating her Byakugan and she started to attack the air as if an enemy were there. She pulled her sword out shoving it deep into a tree as she smirked even wider.
I'm coming to see you one last time, old 'friends'. Hinata thought to herself. Pathetic fools, ending their life will be a pleasure.
