Author's Note: I know I haven't written in a while. I just had writers block! I'm so sorry! Gomen! Well I put Neji's Pov. Also a little bit of Nejihina slowly coming!
~Neji's Pov~
"Neji-kun! Why did you run?" An out of breath Tenten asked me.
"Huh? Oh Tenten! Sorry I needed to speak with Hinata-nii-san about his childishness."
"Well, you spoke to him now how about we have another training session?" Tenten was blushing and eager like a school girl as she asked me.
"Yeah, Neji. We can have a youthful spar and prove that I am the best!" Lee grinned and put his thumbs up as his teeth sparkled.
"But I have to go to a meeting with-."
Hinata interrupted me," There is no need, Neji-sama. I shall discuss with the elders, alone."
I sensed my heart-break when he said he did not want me to go with him. I think someone ripped my heart out, threw it to the ground then stepped on it.
His usual scowl replaced the rare smile. I was mesmerized when I saw how he looked so innocent when he explained why he was running. I could not help but feel an attraction towards my cousin.
His short him-style hair, drift with the wind, mixing his beautiful indigo hair with the dark sky. Eyes that were like two pearls with a lilac hue. His small button nose with a pink tint on the tip. Two locks of hair framing his still chubby face. Showing that he has yet to mature. Pale white skin contrasting with his indigo mane.
I felt like I ruined an innocent shy boy. It was my fault he had the curse seal. He was now cold towards me, not showing any emotion. I suspected that he loathes me.
While, I envied , he was perfect, a prodigy, intelligent, one of two number one Rookies of his class. He even beat my scores in his first month at the Academy. Many said he was the perfect heir but the seal stopped him from becoming the head. Even the elders prefered him since he started to be able to beat me at age three in sparring. But I know I am stronger now.
But I also cherished him, he told me to ignore them. To prove them wrong. To show them I am the rightful heir. To grow stronger and train harder with each insult the clan speaks.
He told me, 'If you listen to them, you will break and prove to them, that they were right. If you ignore them and get stronger, you will prove, that they were mistaken. That they were wrong to underestimate you!'
He was like an older brother but younger, a sensei, and more importantly, a friend. Even though he does not show it, in a way he truly cares and worries for me. I just know it. Even though the clan forbids the Main Branch to interact with the Branch Family more than master and servant. We broke that rule and had a more stronger and loyal relationship.
I got of my thoughts as Tenten pulled me towards my team. I watched as Hinata leave towards the manor. Slowly turning smaller and smaller until he vanished from my byakugan-less sight.
~Hinata's Pov~
I walked towards the Hyuga compound. The district itself looked like a separate village. Small houses, taller buildings, stores, restaurants, and other shops. All of the Hyuuga architecture surounding a wall even taller than the entrance gates.
Behind whose walls was the Main Family's manor. I passed so many Hyugas while trying to get to the Main Family's meeting room. All of them either training, cleaning, moving boxes, doing chores, or guarding.
I got to the meeting room after five minutes of walking. I now stood in front of the shouji doors of the room. I knocked quietly on the door.
A cracked voice said,"Come in." I went inside to find all the elders and the head in the room. I sat on my usual seat, on the left of Hizashi-sama.
The Head Elder, Hiroko-sama, spoke,"Hinata, we know your and your sister's secret that you have kept from us."
I looked up and stared blankly at my grandfather," What is this secret about, Hiroko-sama?"
"Your true gender and Hanabi's true biological parents." My Inner Self gasped that they have realized our secret.
"Hanabi does not know she is a bastard child. So you can not punish her. My mother is deceased, there for you can not punish her. Yes , I am not male. My parents knew that once the found my true gender, you will kill me. You wanted a male to protect the heir. As how it was always been that way. You will have to punish me for both of these crimes. For keeping it a secret. But you can not kill me. I know, I am to much valuable for you to kill."
The elder began to speak among each other but Hiroko-sama silenced them,"Yes, it is true you are of too much of value. After the Chunin Exams, you will be banished for three years. We decided to not banish you know since we have to let you get use to being a host."
"May I ask, a host for what?"
"You will host the ancient demon of the Hyuga Clan." Hizashi-sama finally spoke.
"Aah. May I know its name."
"The demon's is called the Shikaku no Okami. Only those you are its vessel know its name. Why aren't you afraid?" The Head of the clan asked.
"Truthfully, I am frightened that I will become a monster or die. I want to live to protect my Imoto. But I have broken the rules so I am willing to accept my punishment."
"I see." That was all my uncle told me.
"Excellent. Let's start the sealing." Hiroko-sama stated.
Author's Note: Well I think I am a little rusty at describing people but oh well! Short chapter
