~Sasuke's house~

Kiba and Akamaru were sitting on the couch in the living room of the Uchiha house hold; more like laying for Akamaru, Neji had his Byakugan activated and was pushing certain spots on Sasuke's arms and shoulders. Neji was just showing Sasuke how Sasuke stood, walked, and did just about everything he did. Kiba knew Hinata was going to break under the unneeded pressure that Neji was putting on the poor girl. Hinata was pretty good under pressure. However, Neji giving her specific directions a mile a minute, the horrid thought of Sasuke's fan girls, the fact that she was now a boy, the knowledge that if Sasuke messes up she may not be able to go home when all is said and done and trying desperately to remember everything Neji was telling her; that could make anyone freak out. Kiba had never seen Hinata 'freak out' but he was pretty sure, do to her delicate and fragile nature, it involved lots a crying. That would not be fun.

"Show me again," Neji ordered. Sasuke took a deep breath, bent his knees slightly, stuffed his hands in his front pants pocket, his eyes were softly looking down and he put on just the tiniest smile; it actually made Sasuke semi-cute, or so his non-fan girls would think. Sasuke looked polite and kind, which gave him away to Neji. "You're smiling," Neji glared at Sasuke. "Do it again and do it right."

"Neji maybe we should take a break. You've been drilling her for an hour now," Kiba said keeping his eyes on Sasuke's face; waiting for Hinata to break so he could catch her…or well him.

"Not until she gets it right," Neji said threw his teeth. An hour of telling Hinata the same things over and over, you'd think she'd learn. It was getting beyond irritating. Hinata don't smile. Hinata look up. Hinata put your hands in your front pockets. Hinata, I don't care if it's uncomfortable just do it! You might as well scream 'Be emo' at the girl; she still wouldn't understand or do it correctly. How hard was it to stand still and be quiet? "Do it again and. Do. Not. Smile."

"N-Neji why are y-you even d-drilling me?" Sasuke asked taking his hands out of his pockets.

"Don't argue and don't stutter."

"D-Demo Neji-"

"Don't Demo me just do it," Neji said impatiently with his eyes closed. Kiba sighed, he had a sister and new this was going to end badly. It may take a little longer though because Hinata was not Hana. Sasuke gave a small sigh, bent his knees, hands in pockets, looked down, and did not smile; it pained her to do so. Neji circled around Sasuke, looking for any possible mistake; and found it he did. Neji grabbed Sasuke chin and made him look in his eyes. "Chin up. And would it kill you to glare?"

'Glare?'

That's where Hinata put her foot down, if she could. Sasuke swatted Neji's hand away from him. "I will n-not glare. G-Gomen Neji-nii-san demo I-I can't glare," Sasuke said. And who would blame Hinata for not wanting to glare? It went against everything she believed in. "I-I don't even u-unders-stand why were d-doing this. W-Who do I have to i-impress?"

"She has a point Neji," Kiba said from the couch. Akamaru barked in agreement. "Look around us. Do you see any Uchiha's to impress? We should be more concerned with training Sasuke to act like Hinata."

"And what, Kiba, do you suppose we do with Hinata while Sasuke's living her life? Lock her up here at the Uchiha compound? Pretend that she doesn't exist so she won't screw up?" Neji glared at Kiba, daring him to say something. Sasuke could feel tears starting to form. "You know as well as I Sasuke needs to go on missions and do everything he normally does. You also know that for that to happen we need to hold Hinata's hand through every tiny step because she's too incompetent to figure it out herself and when she does she'll find a way to screw it up! I can grantee you that Hinata will do something so that every person in every hidden village knows what's going on before Uzumaki can tell this village."

Three things happened simultaneously in one second, Sasuke started crying and ran into his bedroom, without even knowing which room was which, Kiba, being pissed off because Neji just said his teammate was 'incompetent', grabbed Neji and threw his from the living room into the kitchen and TenTen came walking though the front door.

"What the hell is going on!?" TenTen yelled slamming the door.

"Ask your baka boyfriend," Kiba said before running after Sasuke, with Akamaru at his heels.

~Outside Konoha~

Everyone knows how devoted to a mission Lee can get but Sasuke thought he went a little overboard, well a little more than little. Lee tore off a huge chunk of bark from a tree that he wasn't using for training and balanced it on four rocks. It took a little bit but Sasuke could see how it, in the right light and if you closed both eyes, looked like a table. Lee motioned Hinata to sit opposite him. Nothing had been said so Sasuke figured there was a possibility that it was safe, so he sat on his knees in front of Lee.

"That is indeed the correct way she sat Sasuke. You are very good at this," Lee said with a smile. Hinata raised her eyes like he was crazy. "Sasuke one must never look at his or her guest like he is unusual. Here, pretend like I am Hiashi. I shall act like him for your training."

'Is this guy serious? Or just a complete lunatic?'

"Hinata-chan! Why do you look at me like so? Why do you disrespect your elder like so?" Lee asked in a serious voice, making Hinata's eyes widen.

"What? I-"

"Do not talk back to me. No daughter of mine shall do so."

"Lee…did he really say that to Hinata?" Hinata asked. If he did then Sasuke was pretty sure Hiashi was crazy. Lee broke his "character" to reply.

"No but I did hear him yelling along those lines to his younger daughter Hanabi-chan. Neji also says that Hiashi respects Hanabi-chan more than Hinata-chan even though Hinata-chan is older," Lee said quickly. "During dinner it looked like Hinata-chan would do anything to prove to Hiashi that she is worthy of his respect."

"Tch. Why are you telling me this? I don't care, all I want to do is get through the dinner," Hinata said rolling her eyes.

'So her sister earns more respect and she wants to prove to her father that she is good enough…maybe we aren't that different after all…Tch yeah right.'

~Sasuke Flashback~

Tiny little seven years old Sasuke Uchiha was sitting at the dining room table talking to mother who was in the kitchen making dinner. To many, Sasuke with his baby fat still attached to his cheeks is the cutest thing ever. So it baffled many guys to see girls flock around him when he lost his 'cuteness', but that's another story.

"Okaa-san? Why does father hate me?" Sasuke asked looking across the room to her.

"Hate you? Your father could never hate you Sasuke," She replied with a motherly smile.

"Yes he does! He loves Itachi just because he's older and he's in the ANBU."

"Sasuke your father loves you just as much as he loves your brother. We don't pick favorites," Mrs. Uchiha said walking over and sitting opposite her youngest son.

"Demo I finally learned fireball jutsu but when I showed him, he just sighed and walked away," Sasuke looked down as tears formed. "I'm trying Okaa-san. I'm trying really hard." Sasuke felt someone pick him up and place him in their lap.

"That wasn't your father," Mrs. Uchiha said in his ear.

"Yes it was I-"

"That Sasuke was the head of the Uchiha clan. Your father loves you very much. If you even think he doesn't remember he's the head of this clan and he has to take care of everyone in it. He's just a little stressed out."

Sasuke looked at his mother, tears still coming down. "Really?"

"Of course Sasuke. You want me to let you in on a little secret?" Mrs. Uchiha asked with a big smile. "Your father has a plan for you, a big plan that tonight will be made final. You don't have to earn his respect because you, Sasuke; my little cutie, are the only person in the entire clan that he would trust with this plan."

Of course little Sasuke smiled, even if it was a lie that mother's say to calm their son's it made Sasuke feel better. It gave him hope that maybe there was something he could do to earn respect; he'd do anything to see his father smile at him.

~End Flashback. Outside Konoha~

"Sasuke? Did you hear me?" Lee asked with concern. Hinata had been stairing into space for the last five minutes now.

"Tch. Of course I have. Head down, speak when spoken to, stutter every other word and stay away from Hanabi because she hates Hinata," Hinata said. "Do you think I'd miss anything?"

"I apologize. You just had a look and-"

"I didn't have a look. Let's just continue," Hinata pressed.

"Please say please. Hinata-chan is very polite so you must practice," Lee ordered. Hinata just stared at him.

"You're joking right?"
