Me: Please welcome to the stage, the one, the only Titaness of the Mage Guild Fairytail, Erza Scarlet!
Erza: Hello Aqua- sensei.
Me: Erza, darling, you look beautiful!
Erza:(blushes) Thank you, Aqua-sensei. I'm really excited to do the disclaimer!
Me: Disclaimer? No way! I just wanted to to talk to you to be here for the real disclaimer.
Erza: What do you...?
Jellal: (walks in in a sexy policeman outfit while stripping music starts) Do I really have to do this?
Me: (nods)
Jellal: (sighes and starts stripping and working the pole) Aqua-sensei doesn't own Naruto or Fairytail, but she can still make you all imagine me on a stripping while Erza sticks singles in my - ERZA NOT IN FRONT OF THE FANGIRLS!
"Damn," Ino grinned. "We are amazing."
"You say that like we didn't already know," Ten Ten smiled as she surveyed their work.
Hinata smiled warmly, "Lee-nii, you look amazing!"
The boy could only blush as the girls surveyed the job they'd done on him. Hinata, who had been in charge of hair and those godforsaken eyebrows, had cut Lee's hair extremely low in the back, trading out his bowl cut for a more stylish look. She had gelled his the long parts into curly mohawk (think the styles from Say I Love You, google if you don't know). The painful part had been using the threading technique to sculpt Lee's eyebrows into arched masterpieces. Who would have thought he'd break through iron chains?
Ino had picked out a normal outfit for him. For once in his life, Lee looked like a normal, well-dressed boy. Stripped of his green tights, Lee wore a green, v-neck t-shirt with a loose, un-buttoned vest and a pair of khaki shorts. The t-shirt fit Lee well, defining his lean body, and showing off his muscular arms. Lee looked at his in the mirror and was awed to find a new him. It was kinda cool. "Thank you! This is most definitely a magnificence be-"
Ten Ten slapped a hand over Lee's mouth, a sweat drop forming on her forehead as the other two girls began laughing. "If you ruin this image by saying anything about the fountain of youth, I will knock your teeth from your mouth."
Lee laughed nervously, but said no more. Hinata could tell he felt really embarrassed to have the girls paying him so many compliments on his looks. She clapped her hands together to get everyone's attention; she needed to remind everyone that the battle was only half done. "Now, we need to get ready for Sakura's party."
Lee began to shift nervously. He wasn't sure about seeing Sakura again, especially after she'd been so adamant about wanting nothing to do with him. However, the girls had somehow convinced him that he needed to to do this for closure. Hinata saw his nervousness and smiled reassuringly, "Trust us, you'll be the talk of the town, in a good way."
He smiled back at the girl he had come to consider like his own sister, nodding at her. The girls changed rather quickly (well for girls anyway). Ino came out in a loose, off shoulder silver mini dress, that dipped in the back to show a far amount of skin. She lowered her ponytail so that it draped over her shoulder. Ten Ten gave up her cute buns in favor for a curled ponytail. She wore a short, halter top, colorful dress and black tights. Hinata kept it simple. She went with an elegant red blouse and a pair of white gauchos that could be confused for a skirt. By the time they were ready to go, Lee was slightly shaking with nervousness. Knowing that Lee needed this, they just followed behind him with a comforting hand on his back.
The girls were beginning to think that maybe they had been wrong about bringing Lee to the party. Everything had started out great. The girls entered with Lee to find the party in full swing. Sakura come to the door to greet them (mostly greet Ino and ignore Hinata and Ten Ten), but she did a double take when she saw Lee. Ten Ten and Hinata almost burst into laughter when Sakura's mouth damn near hit the floor.
"LEE?!" she gasped. "Is that really you?"
The action brought them more attention, spreading the awe inspired by Lee's new look. Kiba pushed himself through the crowd to gawk. He let out a chuckle and wrapped an arm Lee's shoulders, jokingly, "Yeah, he may look like a different person, but can't get rid of that Rock Lee stink."
Lee grinned, and Hinata shook her head at her teammate. Appearing out of what seemed like thin air, she felt Shino's hand patting the top of her head in his usual greeting. "Hello, Hinata."
"Hi, Shino," she smiled at him. "Kiba dragged you here?"
"Who else?" Shino sounded exasperated. "I told him to make Naruto go with him, but he said he couldn't get him out the house."
Hinata stiffen a bit at the mention of her crush, but otherwise remained unfazed by it. She tried to turn her attention to something else. That's when she saw how Sakura was monopolizing and hopelessly flirting with a very confused Lee. She rolled her eyes and stepped in to help Lee out. She wrapped an arm around Lee's and used her nicest voice to speak, "Sorry, Sakura-chan. Lee-nii is my escort tonight."
And that is when things went sour. You want to know why? Because some people don't know how to fight fair. Some people just have to be the winners. Some people just have to have the last word. And Sakura is one of those people.
"Jeez, Hinata, if you have a crush on me, just say so," Sakura snorted.
There was dead silence in the group. One that quieted the entire party. Hinata and Lee froze in place, as Hinata slowly turned to face the pinkette again. "Pardon?"
"Oh please, Hinata," Sakura snickered. "Don't play coy. It's been so obvious, I'm ashamed I didn't figure it out before."
"Figure out what, Sakura?" Hinata replied calmly.
"I always thought it was strange, you liking Naruto of all people. I mean what could a Hyuuga girl want with such a reject."
Hinata felt anger bubble under her calm exterior. (Let's put the anger on a scale shall we? It goes 1) Calm 2) Irritated 3) Cross 4) Angry 5)Furious 6) Bitch You Pushing It 7) Nuke this Hoe!) Hinata has reached Irritated.
"I figured you had outgrown your little crush on him, especially when you started shooting for Sasuke. Then, again I guess that was the only class you showed."
Hinata has reached Angry.
"But now, Lee? Wow, I really thought he had more pride than that."
Hinata has reached Furious.
"Are you really that desperate for my sloppy seconds?"
WARNING! HINATA HAS REACHED LEVEL SIX! THIS BITCH IS TESTING HER PATIENCE! WARNING! IT IS TIME FOR SOMEONE TO SHUT THIS HOE UP!
"Who knew the prestigious Hyuuga heiress was such a helpless little lesbo."
CRITICAL MAXIMUM OF BULLSHIT REACHED! IT IS TIME TO NUKE THIS HOE! REPEAT! CRITICAL MAXIMUM OF BULLSHIT REACHED! IT IS TIME TO NUKE THIS HOE! REMOVING ALL FILTERS! REMOVING ALL KINDNESS!
Those watching Sakura's outburst were either completely silent or waiting to comfort Hinata's imminent burst of tears. All were shocked when Hinata started howling with laughter. They stood in amazement as Hinata bent over in laughter. Sakura's face went bright red with embarrassment. She may not have known why, but it was quite obvious that she was being laughed at. She didn't like that. "What the hell are you laughing at!"
Hinata shook her head, trying to get her laughter under control. "I'm sorry. It's just so fucking funny. You actually believe what you just said! You think that people actually wanted you?" Hinata rose to her full height, and the people around them noticed a pointed, steely edge to her eyes. The way she combed her fingers through her hair to pull it from her face gave the heiress a cutting look that negated her usually charm and gentleness.
"I don't think, I know. Naruto wants me, Lee wants me."
"And Sasuke wouldn't care if you were standing naked and gift-wrapped on his bed. He'd still push you away with a twenty meter pole," the smile fell completely from Hinata's face. The change in attitude startled Sakura, causing her to take a step back. "Perhaps he always knew what a terrible skank you are. Because, let's be honest, you and I both know no one wants the real you. You took advantage of Lee-nii's kindness, and now he sees you for who you really are. Naruto too. That's why he called you out as the slut that you are."
"You- how did you-?"
"How did I know?" Hinata smiled cruelly, "Believe it or not, my head can actually process information. Maybe that's what Sasuke found attractive about me? Face it, you were always beneath him. I, on the other hand, have what it takes to marry him. I have status; the graceful, gorgeous heiress to the Hyuuga Clan. What are you again? Oh that's right! You're the pond scum daughter of two no-name class D shinobi."
"I don't have to ride on the tailcoats of my family name! I trained-"
"Under the fifth hokage? Newsflash bitch, that doesn't make you the next one." Hinata started closing in on Sakura as she saw the girl tremble. "You wanna talk about riding on tailcoats? You've done nothing but that since you joined team seven. While Sasuke and Naruto grew stronger, what did you do? You made yourself into someone who needed protection even more so. So you can hit harder, whoop-de-fucking-doo! If the only thing you were gonna be good for is healing then you should have stayed in a hospital! But no. Sakura always has to be the goddamn damsel in distress. Kami! Even during the war, you didn't land a fucking hit. For fuck's sake, just stay on the fucking sidelines!"
There was dead silence as a newfound fear of Hinata sprouted in every heart. Those who had only heard of the heiress before, quivered as if they were still children of the academy. Others made mental notes to be sure to not underestimate what they had only known as a polite lady of the Hyuuga clan. But those of the rookie nine and her cousin's old team were flabbergasted. Even when she rarely vented, Hinata had always had a sort of charm to her temper. They were more like pouting fests than anything else, but this? This was anger, pure and simple. Not the righteous anger that they all knew each other capable of, but they type of anger that spouted from a desire to hurt the object of that anger as cruelly and completely as possible. Hinata legitimately wanted to break Sakura.
Ino bravely came forward to touch Hinata's shoulder, "Hina? Are you okay?"
The room waited with baited breath for Hinata's answer. Hinata had to think about that one herself. In all her years, she had never been so prone to angry outbursts as she had in these last three days. If she were to be perfectly honest, the answer would be no. But the last thing she wanted was an intervention; she also didn't want to carry this rage with her. So, she compromised.
She clocked Sakura across the face.
Hinata sighed, "I'm fine, but you might wanna check on Haruno."
And with that, Hinata once again walked away, leaving a room full of people speechless.
Sorry for the long delay, but I was wrapping up with high school! For the next three months, you guys will have a lot more of my attention! I promise. Also, I promise you some delicious smut in the future. As usual I expect some constructive criticism. Also, tell me how Hinata's dark side is sitting with y'all. Is she too scary, or am I not crossing enough lines? Enjoy.
