OK Guys I'm on fire. JK So far a lot of views! Also Shout Out to Thomas Drovin, thanks for the reviews and beta reading. He's made me realize that our man Shiro doesn't have much backstory. So one of next chapters will be a little bit of backstory. I will be adding flash backs and things like that. Naruto, Naruto Shipuden and all of characters do NOT belong to me, they belong to Kishimoto. Also last chapter I asked if there should a love interest, this chapter I'll ask based what you know about Shiro so far who do you think his best friend will be? Please review. BTW if you review questions and suggestions are very much welcomed.

I woke up at what I guessed was about eight in the morning and was greeted with the sight of a knocked out Rock Lee. Looking around I found myself still in the middle of the training ground he and I had fought in. All of my clones were gone and my body was incredibly sore, heck...I ached all OVER and my chakra was almost completely depleted. I looked over at the still unconscious Lee and saw he was in a very deep sleep.

'There's no way I knocked him out with a jutsu like that,' I thought quietly to myself. 'He must have been training hard too.'

With nothing better to do now, I decided to talk Hinata about the Byakugan. Of course I don't 'know' her, so I'll only ask IF I encounter her. I got out the Kabucards from my pocket and looked through them until I found Rock Lee's card, then I added the data I collected while fighting him last night. The had had card said he was fast, but I never thought he would be SASUKE fast!

Once finished I put the cards away and stood up. I was still low on chakra would have to take some food pills before my battle with Naruto. Actually...when I think about it, I may have a small addiction to food pills. But that could wait as my eyes were bothering me...a lot. Then I realized that not ONE of my clones could activate their eyes, so all I did was waste chakra with them.

Leaving Rock Lee behind to sleep it off I decided to walk around the Leaf Village and grab some breakfast.

"Now then...what can I eat?"

I opened my pockets to check for ryo, I had JUST enough to go buy a meal. I COULD go to a store and buy food...but I didn't feel like cooking anything with Fire Style Jutsu. Also I STILL didn't have a place to stay at, so buying a CHEAP meal was my best bet. But I only knew two places in Leaf Village to get cheap food. There was an 'all you can eat' BBQ and the Ichiraku Ramen Shop. Honestly...both ramen AND barbecue didn't sound that good for breakfast but I ended up eating ramen anyway.

Once I finished eating I decided to get new clothes, since the ones I was wearing were dirty and tattered from my recent fights. I walked into the nearest clothing store and saw more clothes than I had seen my entire life.

'Hmm...' I thought to myself as I looked around the store. 'I'd better keep a LOW profile, because something told me that Sakura and that Yamanaka girl had LIKED shopping!'

There was all kinds of clothes but I eventually found a black and white hoodie with matching black pants that looked real good so I bought them. Leaving the store I found a quite area by a waterfall a little bit away from the village were I changed my clothes. I put my necklace on under my clothes, then put my shuriken pouch on my leg and flipped my hoodie over my head. This area by the waterfall was nice and peaceful. There wasn't a person in sight; except there was. Hinata was sitting right buy the waterfall gazing at it.

"Hey!" I called and waved happy that I actually managed to find her.

I must have caught her off guard because she gave a little surprised jump and developed a light blush as she saw me approach her.

"U-umm hi." she said shyly.

"Hey, you're Hinata right?" I asked in a way that sounded like I didn't know even though I really did.

She nodded in confirmation

"Do you know anything about dojutsu?" I asked as I joined her.

"Y-yes. It's an optical jutsu t-that grants the user different abilities d-depending on wh-what it is. C-could you p-please come w-with me?" she asked nervously. "T-there s-someone I want you to meet."

Puzzled but obliged I followed the nervous Hinata. We started walking away from the village and soon came to big building with the words "Hyuga Compound" written above the main gate.

"I-If you wait right here near the entrance," she told me as she started walking inside. "I'll be right back."

I nodded and I stood patiently outside waiting for Hinata to return with, whoever it was, that she wanted me to meet.

'Man this this house is so huge!' I thought to myself as I waited. 'No wonder it can fit an entire clan here.'

A few minutes past and Hinata came back with some long haired guy with eyes similar to hers, looking at him I could tell was between 16 and 18.

"I am Neji Hyuga," he introduced himself. A few minutes of silence passed as we sized each other up before Hinata took Neji aside and started telling him about my eye. I could hear them talking in low voice but couldn't quite make out what was being said. I could tell at once that Neji did NOT trust me.

"Hmm," he said at last once Hinata finished telling him about me. "Lady Hinata are you SURE about this?"

When Hinata nodded in confirmation Neji sighed and looked at me "What is your name?"

"My name is Shiro."

"Starting today Shiro, Lady Hinata and I will be training you. IF you have the Byakugan, as I was told you do, we will teach you how to use it. I must let you know I will not teach you EVERYTHING as it is sacred to the Hyuga Clan."

"I understand and I am grateful." I don't know HOW safe it is to train with my enemies but my only TRUE enemy was Sasuke and NEED to get stronger to beat him. "When do we start?" I asked.

"Umm h-how about tomorrow morning?" Hinata asked.

"Sounds good," I said excitedly. "Is that ok with you Neji?"

"If that is when you and Lady Hinata wants to do it than yes," he replied.

'Hmm...' I thought to myself. 'Neji doesn't seem to trust or LIKE me very much. It seemed like he didn't WANT to train me but he listened to Hinata. I wonder why?'

"Ok then!" I said eagerly. "See ya then!'

With the thought of getting stronger than Sasuke filling me with excitement, I ran back to the village.
