Chapter 7: Deeper reasons
Sasuke didn't know why he had to walk in the hallways of the Hyuga compound. Never had he imagined in his whole life that he would enter the Hyuga Clan's mansion and be led by a Hyuga servant. He was peacefully training a jutsu in the training grounds when suddenly a pale-eyed servant came to tell him that the Hyuga Leader was asking for his presence. So troubling… all his life, he was never associated with the said clan. Even before the tragic massacre occurred, the Uchiha and Hyuga never had a friendly relationship.
So… what does the clan head need from him? From a pure Uchiha?
"This way, Uchiha-sama. Hiashi-sama is waiting for you." The servant bowed and pointed him a shogi. She then dismissed herself when her work was done.
Sasuke's eyes trailed the Hyuga servant until she was out of sight. Questions kept occurring in his head. Even if he wanted to get the hell out of his place, he still had an urge to see Hyuga Hiashi, who wanted his presence out of the blue. Well, he did save his daughter in the middle of the forest. Maybe that was the reason why the noble man wanted to see him all of a sudden. The girl probably reported to her father that Sasuke saved her life once.
The raven-haired rookie slid open the shogi, and then there, his black eyes met the figure of the respected clan head. Giving respect to him before coming inside, he bowed first and then closed the door behind him as politely as he could.
"Take a seat." Hiashi said with his usual stern voice.
Sasuke did what he was told. He sat on the Zabuton opposite of Hiashi and came face to face with him. "I do not intend to be impolite, but, what business do you have with me?" he asked bravely.
Hiashi stared at the Uchiha's keen black eyes. Impressed by its sharpness and braveness. "I have heard from my daughter that you once saved her life in the woods." He began, "These days, the whole village has been busy with its renovating, and as the Hyuga Head, I couldn't find a suitable time to be able to talk to you."
Sasuke listened tentatively to him.
"I would like to thank you for protecting my daughter. Indeed, we owe you a lot."
"You do not need to thank me, sir. If that's what you only want to say, you shouldn't have bothered to look for me." Sasuke replied, "Pardon my speech but, I have to leave soon to continue my training."
"I do not blame you for showing a cold shoulder towards us Hyuga. I admit that our clans had never been involved with each other, we only consider ourselves as acquaintances despite being the two most powerful kekkei genkai in the fire country." Hiashi said, "You, Uchiha Sasuke, are the only survivor of the well-known Uchiha clan. You are also a prodigy, just like my nephew Neji. You have special skills and you are an intelligent shinobi. Someday, you would be a very strong ninja and you would be a wise clan head. I can see it in you."
Sasuke's eyebrow nearly rose. He let the elder man continue.
"The truth is… I have a very important discussion to settle with you."
"Hinata-sama, Haruka-sama wishes to speak with you." A servant said from the other side of the door of Hinata's bedroom.
Hinata quickly closed the book she was reading and responded in a heartbeat. "Okaa-sama?"
The servant opened the shogi for Haruka. Once she saw her daughter, she requested for the servant to leave by telling that she could take care of herself. The female servant obeyed and then excused herself.
"Mother. How are you feeling today? Are you sure you can walk around?" Hinata went to Haruka in anxiousness.
Haruka gently placed a hand on Hinata's shoulder in order to reassure the worried daughter. "I am fine, dear. In fact, I feel really strong today so I decided to walk around."
They sat down together. It has been a long time since they had done this. When Hinata was visiting her mother in her room, Haruka was always tired and very weak to even speak with her. There was not a day that Hinata didn't pray for her mother's health. She always brought flowers to her and told her to get well soon. But, her mother got weaker after the case involving the Kumo Ninjas during the Konoha Invasion. Indeed, Haruka nearly died because of stress and worry upon hearing that Hinata was missing that time.
The younger Hyuga was very hurt. Seeing her mother crying and suffering… she wanted to suffer in Haruka's place.
"I came to talk with you, my child… I apologize for not being able to stay at your side after all what have happened… I wanted to but, they wouldn't let me." Haruka said.
"Do not worry about that, mother. You need to look after your health first." Hinata said. "Your health is more important, so please, do not push yourself too hard."
Haruka's eyes tenderly stared at Hinata, "You are a very good child, Hinata. I am really blessed to have a daughter like you…"
Hinata smiled sincerely at her.
"Would you turn around for me? I want to do your hair…" Haruka said.
Hinata did what she was asked to and she felt her mother's soft hands slightly touching the side of her face as her hair was being fixed.
"You know, sometimes… I can't help but think if I became a good mother to you." Haruka said as she brushed Hinata's short dark blue hair with a comb. "Every parent in this world would be happy to have someone like you, Hinata. So I couldn't help but think… was I able to fulfill my responsibilities as your mother? What have I done… to deserve a daughter like you?"
"Please do not say that, okaa-sama. I could never ask for a better mother like you… Even if I was not qualified to be an heiress, okaa-sama still accepted me and cared for me. What if you were not my mother…? Would she still do what you have done to me? I understand that okaa-sama has a very ill body, but despite all that, you still did your best to be a good mother to me and Hanabi." Hinata said as she turned to look at her mother's eyes, "I would never ever regret having you as my mother, okaa-sama. So, please do not say that again… You would hurt me, father and Hanabi."
Tears began forming in Haruka's eyes. She reached out for Hinata's face and gently caressed it. "I love you dear… I love you. Do not forget that, all right? No matter what other people say, I, your mother… will never stop loving you. Someday, I know that you will attain eternal happiness for you are a very good daughter to me and Hiashi." She pulled the maiden into a warm hug.
Hinata hugged Haruka back, gladly accepting all the love she could feel from the woman who gave birth to her. "I could never ask for a better life… I am blessed with a very kind mother, a brave and strong father, a caring sister, an intelligent cousin and a noble family. I'm contented with having all of that… I was blessed to be able to belong in this family."
Tears freely slid Haruka's pale face. She didn't know that Hinata was very optimistic. After all the treatment she had gotten from the family members, she still didn't despise them. The Hyuga elders thought of her as a burden… the Branch family does not respect her… everyone gives her a cold shoulder. Everyone treated her like an outcast, of course, that gave a large scar in Haruka's heart.
Why? What did this child do to carry such a burden on her shoulders? She was innocent… But, why did it have to be her?
"I'm sorry for everything, Hinata… I'm sorry that you have to be like this. I'm sorry." Haruka's moans turned into sobs. "Your life should be better than this…"
Not only Hinata's freedom was taken away… but also something else that no one would ever want to be taken away from them.
It was just a moment ago when the Hyuga elders came to her room and informed her about Hinata's arrange marriage with the only survivor of the Uchiha clan. She protested. She fought for her daughter's freedom to chose whom she would want to marry, but in the end, she still lost. The elder's reasons were far wiser than of what she had. And the top reason why she gave in was Hinata would never be placed in the branch family if she married the Uchiha. Haruka could never handle it if Hinata were to placed down to the branch family… Her fate was cruel, and Haruka could never take the fate that lies ahead of Hinata if she'd be kicked out of the Main Family.
How would she be able to tell it to Hinata?
"Please, stop crying, mother. It is not good for your health…" Hinata said softly as tears also started forming in her pale eyes.
Haruka hugged her tighter but didn't obey her daughter. She couldn't stop her tears anymore… She was mad at herself… why wasn't she able to fight for her daughter? Why did she have to be so weak? Why wasn't she able to do anything?
The mother and daughter stayed like that for a moment until someone interrupted them.
Maeko asked permission to enter. Upon hearing the priestess, Hinata and Haruka broke the hug and dried their tears. They gave approval to her permit and she came inside, bowing to show respect to them. Haruka and Hinata bowed back.
"It is nice to see you, Maeko-san." Haruka greeted with a smile.
"Haruka-sama? It is a surprise to see you here. How is your health?" Maeko asked.
"I feel strong today, don't worry about me. I can manage." Haruka replied.
"I see. That is good to hear." Maeko said, "I apologize if I interrupted both of you, milady. But… I came to settle an important business with you. We shall meet Hiashi-sama at this moment."
Haruka nodded, "I understand, Maeko-san. Please, do give us time to prepare."
"Yes, milady."
Hinata gave Haruka a confused look, "Where will we go, okaa-sama?"
Haruka felt her heart clench. No… she couldn't possibly tell her yet… she was too young. But wise enough to understand everything.
"Oh, we will just talk with your father." Haruka replied with a shaky voice, "You will meet someone new this day… and I hope that… you will be able to understand everything, all right?"
"Yes, mother." Hinata smiled innocently.
It took twenty minutes or so when Haruka helped Hinata get prepared to meet this new person. Haruka made her wear a blue kimono with white feathers as its design, and a nadeshiko flower hair pin as her hair dress.
"You look lovely, my child." Haruka complimented.
"Thank you, mother." Hinata said with a faint blush. "But… who are we going to meet? Why did I have to get dressed?" she asked.
"Let's just go… you will be able to see him soon." Haruka said.
Hinata, Haruka and Maeko left the bedroom and walked the hallways. In a minute or two, they reached a room that they rarely used. Like they only they used that whenever they had special visitors or when the Hyuga elders come to visit them. The young girl couldn't help but wonder who the person was. Having the head priestess and her mother with her, the person must be someone who also belongs to a noble family.
A servant slid open a shogi for the three of them. Maeko, Haruka and Hinata bowed in unison before they entered the room. When the young Hyuga lifted her head up, her eyes quickly fell upon her father's companion. Pale orbs widened in a heartbeat. The man—the boy whom her mother and Maeko talked about, was the least she imagined to see with her father. He was no respectable elder of some clan or family, instead, he was a boy… same age as her or maybe a little bit older.
Uchiha Sasuke.
Sasuke stared back at her in an emotionless manner. Completely the opposite of her reaction.
Hinata was ordered to sit beside her father, and she did so. Haruka sat at the other side of Hiashi, and Maeko was beside Haruka. The heiress again looked at the Uchiha's sharp black eye, again, completely opposite of hers.
"Hinata."
The maiden inwardly squeaked when her name was dictated by her father. "Hai, otou-sama?" she replied politely.
"I asked for Uchiha Sasuke's presence for you informed that he was the one who saved you in the forest from your near death." Hiashi said, "We, the Hyuga clan, are in huge debt to you, Uchiha Sasuke."
When Hiashi bowed at the young Uchiha, Haruka and Maeko beckoned him. Hinata then followed.
"I-I wasn't able to properly thank you in that day, S-Sasuke-san… So… Thank you very much for saving me. If you weren't there… then I…" Hinata said.
"Do not bother about it." Sasuke cut her and tried his best to sound polite in front of the Hyuga's noble family. He couldn't help but stare at her longer and judge her by appearance. She looked delicate, calm, timid, kindhearted… definitely not suitable to be a fighter. A pure Yamato Nadeshiko. But what would a strong clan do with a weakling like her?
They are definitely getting rid of her.
Sasuke thought. Somehow, he felt sorry for the girl. Still, she was a Hyuga even if she was weak. A strong kin runs in her veins. Just like him.
That's why the Hyuga thought of something like that.
Pretty clever.
But… he's not interested in having an heir with mixed blood of Hyuga and Uchiha. For so many reasons that Hiashi told him before the Hyuga daughter came, he knew from the start that the real reason why the Hyugas made a decision of having them betrothed; they wanted to make the useless girl useful to the clan and have a very strong heir.
A Hyuga blood and Uchiha blood flowing in one body… who could have ever thought how strong the child would become?
"Hinata, why don't you show Sasuke-san around the compound?" Haruka said.
"Oh… Y-Yes, mother." Hinata said.
How Sasuke wanted to get the hell out of the Hyuga Household.
Could he just refuse?
Unfortunately, no.
Hinata brought Sasuke to the library, the garden, training room, living room and lastly, to the Koi pond. It was awkward that their word were very limited. She would say "This is the …" and then he would reply a monosyllabic "Hn."
She felt a little uncomfortable with him compared to Naruto. Despite the fact that Sasuke was the first one who saved Hinata's life. She just couldn't treat him the way she treated Naruto.
Sensing a pattern from the previous tours she gave him, she decided to lead him away from the pond. She had a feeling that he was not enjoying the tour after all. Getting him back to her father would be best… she felt he wanted to get out of here too.
But as she was about to lead him away, he suddenly spoke much to her surprise.
"Can we stay here longer?" Sasuke said.
Hinata gave him a look of surprise.
Sasuke raised a brow. "What? You were touring me around, and I come to like this place out of those boring rooms you showed me."
"Oh… Y-Yes. I'm sorry. Please, feel free." Hinata said.
Sasuke couldn't believe this girl. Why did she have to be so naïve?
They both sat by the pond, staring at the active Kois under the clear water.
The Uchiha clan used to have this too… He and Itachi were the ones who had fun feeding it when they were young. He clenched his fists absentmindedly and gritted his teeth behind his lips.
There was no time to think of those memories with his brother. He promised long ago that he would forget all about them. Revenge… that's what he has to focus on.
Hinata couldn't help but notice the Uchiha's sudden intensity.
Right from the first time she had ever seen him, she could feel a very dark aura surrounding his heart. And his hatred… it was so powerful. And then there was the passion for revenge.
Sometimes, she couldn't help but wonder how she was able to feel someone else's heart?
"That person in your mind… is he the one whom you want to get your revenge?" She suddenly said with pure sincerity in her voice.
As usual, Sasuke glared at her emotionlessly. "How do you know about that?" he said sharply. They never knew each other and he had never seen her until that day in the forest. So… how could she just say that?
Hinata looked uncertain. She quickly avoided his gaze and started to think of an excuse. She couldn't possibly tell him that she could sense it in his heart. He might think that she's weird or… different.
But, she is.
"I… I've read about the Uchiha clan years ago. I was informed of the…"
Massacre.
"So even a girl like you knows what Itachi did." Sasuke said.
Hinata stared down at her lap. "I'm sorry…"
Sasuke retrieved his gaze and looked up the orange sky. The sun was beginning to set and he lost track of time for how long he had been staying in the Hyuga household. Seriously, he was wasting too much time. He's supposed to be in training at this hour instead of sitting at the porch with some noble girl watching the koi fishes swim. Every minute of his life counted… every training was efficient. Every single day, he had to get stronger in order to kill that person.
But… he chose to stay in this freaking mansion. Yes, he had an option and Hiashi didn't fail in giving him that. He had many choices… but he still chose the most unexpected one.
"I… I heard my mother and father talking about the Uchiha clan when I was young." Hinata began, "They said that your clan's power is the same level of us… and hid many secrets. All those who belong to the Uchiha clan… were born to be great ninjas with no exception." She paused, "That's why it's no wonder why Sasuke-san is said to be the number one rookie… and a genius. M-my younger sister told that to me when she heard that you were the one who came to help me in that day."
Sasuke gave her a side glance, partly uninterested and interested in her ramblings. But, he just can't seem to ignore her. Especially when she's talking about his family.
"Does your family really owe me that much?" Sasuke suddenly asked.
"Eh?" Hinata said in a perplexed manner.
"True. I'm the only survivor of the Uchiha clan. I admit that I do better than those shinobi falling in the same rank as I am. But, what you and your family do not understand is the reason why I saved you." Sasuke looked at her directly in the eye, like a predator eying at its prey. "First of all, I have no intentions in saving your life from Gaara. I had no reasons to save someone like you. I noticed that you all think highly of me because I am skilled… and you all think that I have the heart to do something as heroic as that. But, I want to clear this once and for all." He paused, "Saving you is not included in my plans."
Hinata felt her heart nearly jumping out of her throat. Her eyes all wide as she stared back at his sharp black orbs. Indeed, he was a skilled shinobi… trained to be an assassin since a very young age. She didn't know how she would react towards him… would she be hurt by what he said? Would she understand him? Would she get angry?
Sasuke knew that he sounded very harsh towards the fragile maiden. But what could he do? He just can't change his self just because of her. And if that agreement would take action, she had to deal with him for the rest of her life whether he or she liked it or not.
So, he would not be surprised if he'd see the girl weeping in front of him after what he said. But, instead of seeing tear, he saw something that he least expected to see.
Hinata smiled.
"I understand, Sasuke-san." She said. "I'm sorry that my family had been bothering you… You see, my father sometimes doesn't listen to other people's explanation… so I apologize if we had been misunderstanding your reasons." She firmly looked back at him, "But… even if that was your reason, you still saved my life. For me, that meant a lot… after all that… there is no way that I can never be thankful towards you. Truthfully, if there is anything I can do… I will gladly do it in order to repay you."
They already repaid me.
Sasuke thought to himself. "I don't need you or anyone to repay me. I'm fine," he said coldly, "But your family is too stubborn." He mumbled.
Hinata didn't quite catch his last phrase. But she did hear him ramble something under his breath.
Sasuke somewhat didn't feel irritated being with her. She was quiet, shy and calm. A total opposite of the girl he had on his team. Always clingy and flirty when he was around, oh, how he hated it. Especially when the fangirls would all combine and scream his name. He so wanted to slit their throats open. But, this was the very first time he felt a little comfortable with a girl. He always thought of them as a huge pain in the ass, well, Hinata was no exception to that, but she was a lesser pain in the ass though. At least she wasn't loud or clingy or fangirly-ish.
"U-Umm… is something wrong, Sasuke-san?" Hinata suddenly asked. Indeed, he was staring at her for some time and not moving.
Sasuke, upon getting back to his senses, just coolly averted his gaze. He ignored her and went back to watching the kois swim in the pond.
Hinata, upon realizing that he had no interests in entertaining her questions, just dropped the subject off. But… it couldn't immediately slip out her mind that he was staring at her and spacing out all of a sudden. Too... unexpected for an Uchiha.
The Uchiha didn't know what just happened. Yes, he admitted it, he was staring at her. But, why? How dare she? How dare she make him look at her that way? Was it only because that their fates were already decided? Or… something else?
No. A "something else" can't happen. She was just a poor Hyuga, a former heiress, an under-qualified shinobi. She couldn't do anything to make him look at her in that way. Never. He just agreed with Hiashi's proposal in order to restore the Uchiha clan. Not for something else.
In the end, it would be the Uchihas who'd gain the largest benefits out of that agreement. It wouldn't be the Hyuugas. He swore.
Konoha Streets.
Naruto was on his way to his favorite ramen place to grab some of his favorite Miso Pork Ramen. The day was kind of rough for him since he had to help the village to its restore; he worked to his hardest because he was really hyped up from morning. Errands here, rebuilding there… only a few more works and then the village would be again as good as new as if nothing had happened a week ago. He was just really glad that the Ramen shop was rebuilt way too fast and immediately got back on service.
"Ossan! One bowl of Miso Pork Ramen, please!" Naruto exclaimed as he entered the shop.
"Got it!" the old man enthusiastically replied as he saw his number one customer.
Naruto sat on his favorite stool and waited for his meal. Man, he was starving. After running around the village and doing this and that, his energy was at the verge of reaching its lowest point.
Some minutes passed by and the Miso Pork Ramen was finally laid on top of the counter.
"Hai, Omacchi!" the old man said.
Without wasting more time, Naruto's hand instinctively reached for the pile of wooden chopsticks on the higher counter, ripping them apart and slapping his hands together. "Itadakimasu!" he then began slurping on his beloved ramen, not caring of anything else in the world.
Teuchi crossed his arms over his chest. "Quite hungrier here, aren't we?"
Naruto wasn't able to respond quickly as he continued eating his favorite meal. After some seconds, he took one last slurp on his bowl and extended it towards the old man, "One more, please!"
The old man just smiled, "Coming right up!"
.
.
.
.
.
At the end of the day, Naruto ended up finishing eleven bowls of Miso Pork Ramen. It was a good thing that the old man gave him a discount. If not, he would again scream that his "frog wallet's flat". The blond-haired shinobi patted his round stomach and heaved a satisfied sigh.
"That was really great, old man! Is it me or it's just getting better and better day by day, dattebayo?"
Teuchi chuckled, "Stop flattering me, boy. Next time, you won't get discounts anymore."
"Hey, I'm telling the truth!" Naruto fed back.
"All right, all right. Thanks for that, Kiddo." He said.
Naruto then stood up from the stool and waved goodbye at the old man. He went out of the shop, feeling incredibly recharged after the eleven bowls, and he will definitely be back soon to have his favorite ramen.
As he walked down the streets, he looked up the approaching night on the sky. With his arms behind head, he couldn't help but think of what Hinata was doing at this moment. Correction, he was thinking of her the whole day. She didn't slip his mind since he went off to see her this morning. To tell the truth, the real reason why he was such in a good mood today was entirely because of her. She filled him up and energized him to his highest point. So in everything he did today, most of it was for her. He knew how much Hinata loved the village and how much she wanted to walk in its streets freely again. He just couldn't help himself but do his best to rebuild the village when she thought of her.
"I wonder if she already ate… Maybe I could take her to have some ramen one day," he said to himself.
"Oooh. And who might she be?" a voice suddenly came from behind the ramen-lover that made him freak the hell out.
"E-ERO-SENNIN!"
With the loudness of the boy's voice, Jiraiya immediately smacked his yellow head for saying that out loud again, making other people look at them skeptically. This kid is so dead.
When Jiraiya was able to calm himself, he began to talk to Naruto properly.
"Have you seen Sasuke around?"
When Naruto was able to recover from the hit he got from his mentor, he couldn't help but also wonder. Now that he thought of it, he didn't see Sasuke the whole day. He then shrugged his shoulders to answer and Jiraiya just nodded.
"Yeah, where is that teme?"
Naruto thought.
Sasuke was forced to stay in for dinner at the Hyuga household. It has been a long time since he was able to have a formal meal on a table. It was a little awkward though to be joining the Hyuga family. Especially when Hyuga Hiashi was around. It was very intimidating.
And he thought that after staying in for dinner, he would be able to get out of the compound. But he was wrong. After dealing with the father, the maiden… he would now deal with the mother and a priestess. He was led in a quiet room, and he didn't know why he felt something different with Maeko's presence.
"I believe that my husband told you the purpose why you were abruptly called to our household." Haruka began.
Sasuke nodded.
"My husband already told me that you agreed in our clan's proposal." Haruka paused at that and then bowed, "I sincerely thank you for that, Uchiha Sasuke-san." Maeko beckoned her and that didn't help Sasuke to calm down a little bit.
"It is the elders who came up with the idea of having a Hyuga-Uchiha heir for the future generations. I am sure that Hiashi mentioned to you that Hinata is not qualified to be the heiress of the Hyuga clan anymore… in our tradition… a family member from the main family who's not supposed to be the heir will fall to the lower branch. The truth is…. You definitely saved my daughter's life from falling under the Branch Family. Arranging your marriage with her saved her from another cruel life…" Haruka said, "I cannot express how happy I am for you to finally arrive in our lives, Uchiha-san."
"So that was it. The real reason why they agreed on this marriage was to save the former Hyuga heiress. They did have a motive to throw her out."
Sasuke thought.
"Do not get us wrong, Uchiha-san." It was Maeko's turn to speak. "That is not the only reason why we agreed to arrange your marriage with Hinata-sama,"
Sasuke was quite surprised that the priestess read his mind. He kind of forgot that Priestesses were mysterious creatures. And come to think of it, Maeko was the head priestess of the fire country. But what was she doing here?
"I have seen your future, Uchiha Sasuke-sama. You have a very huge role in Hinata-sama's life… and Hinata-sama also has a huge role in your life. And no matter what, you have to fulfill those roles without fail." Maeko said.
Sasuke furrowed his brows, "What is that role?"
"You are in duty to protect her. Only you can save her from what I've seen." Maeko answered. "A cruel fate awaits her… but with you around, that would be prevented."
Role. Fate. Duty.
This was getting quite harder to understand even for a genius like him.
"I know you have lots of questions in your mind… but this is not the right time yet to tell it all to you. We shall wait… for you and she to get ready of what kind of path you will have in the future." The head priestess said.
"For now… I'm placing my daughter's safety in your hands, Uchiha-san. The Hyuga fmily… will forever be in your support." Haruka said.
Sasuke's questions were not answered in the end. The role, the duty, the fate… it was all troubling him. He just hoped he wouldn't regret any of these in the future.
