suckstobeacritic you inspired this chapter, I hope you enjoy it!

Hinata was horrified as Mika was taken by Kabuto, she had seen through his mask with her Byakugan when he took Mika. Her beloved and best friend had seemed just as confused as everyone else when he was taken, she wanted to give chase and save him but she had no idea where he went. Plus there was a freaking Invasion going on and she could not afford to not fight in that moment.

Leaping over to the Civilian section, she unleashed her holy hell on any Sound or Sand Ninja she saw. Her taijutsu skills were good enough that most of them fell to her quickly, she only really needed a few good hits to make them easy targets to Gai or Kakashi, who were making quick work of the entire arena. The actual fighting was barely fighting, she hit quickly and without showboating, having realized that it was a pointless thing to do. In a match of life and death, why show off? Just hit quick and kill your enemy so you could live to fight another day.

Eventually, from the side of her vision, she saw Shikamaru unconscious, and realized his genius would make a tremendous aid to them all... only to, after a moment of looking at his chakra network, realize he was freaking awake!

"That moron!" She screamed and, to her shock, killing intent exploded from her body into the air startling the men around her. It gave her the chance to disarm, literally, two Sound Ninja with a Gentle strike to the right shoulder. Kakashi finished them off by slitting their throats, but she was not done with her anger. She would get back at the boy, one way or another.

With all she was, Hinata focused on the battle at hand, which seemed to go on forever... at least until a burst of chakra, dark and vile, filled the air followed by an unholy scream. Most of them turned to the Kage booth where they watched the barrier go down and Orochimaru fled with help from his minions. With her special eyes, Hinata could actually see Orochimaru's arms, they were purple and necrotic.

Her knowledge of anatomy kicked in immediately, and she knew that whatever happened would only be undone by an utter master of medical jutsu.

Turning to Kakashi, as the battle started to wane, she said. "I am going to help those that need medical care. "

"You're are a trained medic?"

"Mostly a barely trained vet, but I know first aid really well. All Hyuuga's are taught it, as well as training with Mika and Hana."

He nodded. "I see, be careful. Oh, and good job on your match, you've really grown as a Kunoichi." "

"I will." And so that was what Hinata did, using every ounce of her skills to patch people up and save as many lives as she could. By her count, by the time she stopped, she had saved over fifty ninja and civilians... using every ounce of her equipment. "Now, where is Mika?" She whispered, using her exhausted eyes to search for him as they started to let people leave the stadium.

She found him, after five seconds, oozing dark chakra, on a rooftop, bleeding from his throat.

Without hesitation, she rushed to him and took him to the hospital. They took him away immediately, looking pale and overworked. She would not leave the hospital until eh woke up, that she swore.

::::

"No... Dad, stop!"

"Where is that sound coming from?" Mika asked, walking alone in the dark, the painful sound of a child screaming. The words and the sound was familiar, dropping in his heart like lava. "What happened, why am I... or rather, where am I?"

"PLEASE!"

Everything stopped and Mika charged towards the sound, not caring of the risk. A child was in danger, he would save it. Slowly, as he ran, a light grew before him. It took a while, be he saw its source...

Himself.

"What?" Age eight, tiny underfed Mika with his poofy hair, soft blue eyes so expressive with fear and tears. Blood dropping from his quivering lips, stark against his translucent skin. He was wearing a dirty black t-shirt and white shorts, his body covered in bruises.

The boy was looking at him. "Dad did this, he always did this."

Mika's chest tightened, the reminder of his past burning a hole in his soul. "I know... I am so sorry, no child should be a victim of an adult. Especially their parent." Kneeling, Mika pulled younger Mika into his chest. "We will get past this, we will grow and be great. We are more than just a perpetual victim of a man we hate."

"I do hate him... we hate him... so that's why we killed him." Mika froze, shaking, he pulled back and looked at himself, or a new version of himself. His eye was now yellow, purple makeup decorating the edges of his eye. "We did kill him but no one knows, we poisoned him with his own blood clot medication, ground it up and put it in his tea. He never knew but it made him vulnerable when we finally fought back... he beat us that day, so hard, bashing our head into the ground over and over, but we managed to claw his face and bit his arm with enough force that he bled out. No one knows... we are a killer, an avenger, we will be so much more...

We are still being held back, by the village this time. For being Clanless Ninja rather than being a child. They will never give us what we need, just like they didn't care when we were being so obviously abused...just like they let Naruto be abused, or Sasuke live on his own or allow the Hyuuaga's to be enslaved.. they need to be punished. Orochimaru can help with that, give us the skills we need, the power, the influence... we can make them suffer."

Mika recoiled. "Orochimaru tortured and experimented on babies, I am not sure he is a better option!"

His other half grabbed his arm, sharp nails digging into Mika's skin. "You avenged me, why not them! Avenge them, show your true colors, make things right!"

The words creeped into Mika's soul, and like creeping smoke lingered in places it should not and something started to rise within his soul.

"NO!"

Mika snapped as the dark visions shattered, something exploding from his soul, making the nurse checking his vitals collapse in terror. Her eyes were wide, her skin flush with terror, whispering the word no. He couldn't care, rage and hate and the strongest bloodlust his soul could manage burned at the edge, things he usually held back. Things that reminded him of his father...

A strong hand on his arm made him relax, turning Mika saw it was a very concerned Gai and a very horrified Hinata. "Mika, what happened?"

Tears broke in Mika's eyes and he threw himself at the man. He did not cry or sob, but he shook in utter terror. Gai stroked his head, whispering soft nothings into his ear in a very paternal gesture something Mika had never experienced. It only made things worse, far, far worse and finally, the dam broke and Mika started sobbing.

""

Hinata had never seen or felt so much emotion and from Mika, who regularly looked dead, it had been an extra shock. "Mika...that was killer intent and so much of it... it was so massive, how? Neji used to leak it during our spars, but this,... this was like something a Kage was capable of!"

Gai nodded, just as worried.

Mika shuddered in Gai's chest. " My father, I saw in my head... a baby me, little me. I was reminded of why I, I cannot have children and it just unleashed something in my heart."

Gai kneeled. "Tell us, we will listen."

And so Mika spoke, his normally dry tone filled to the brim with emotion and pain so deep it made Hinata cry on principle and even Gai looked close to tears. "My parents had kids young and for a bad reason, neither should have had children at all. Dad was profoundly smart but also cruel, he hit us all, mom included. One day it was too much and Mom left, but since the Second Hokage passed a law about inheritance, Dad got custody of his firstborn son... me.

I look just like my mother, to a T actually. He hated me from the start, always accusing mom of cheating to have me. He hit me a lot... he wasn't a ninja, but he was so wrathful he could use Killer intent and used to scare me with it, force me to see my death. I am so much like him though, despite my looks, that I managed to do it one day too, just as powerfully as he did, and that... he... he attacked me, tried to kill me.

Then, I did something I do not regret. My father had a clotting problem, he was on medication. I fed him extra meds in his really strong tea, he thought I messed it up so he attacked me even more. He put me in a coma for a week but... I had hurt him enough that he bled out, I was eight. The Third found me, asked me to be a ninja, but never gave me therapy, asked me about the abuse or anything. I know they performed an autopsy, I think that I overdosed my father is why I was allowed to be a ninja... it's partially why I studied medical jutsu, I knew that it saved little me so why not others?"

Hinata jumped onto Mika's hospital bed and hugged him from the otherside. "So why won't you have kids?"

"Or romantic partners, I cannot hurt them like he hurt me, ... the killer intent is just the bottom of the list, we are so alike me and my father. I have his temper, I killed a man by eight Hinata!" The boy's voice cracked and Hinata swore she felt his pain.

Leaning in she grabbed his chin. "I wanted to kill my father by eight, and the entire Main Branch despite my passiveness. I am sure Neji did too. Abusers deserves death, that is a fact. You were just brave enough to do it."

Gai, who had been listening, smiled at Mika. "From what you said, you are better by far than your unyouthful father. I am sorry you went through that, and that the Curse mark made you see such a painful memory."

Mika frowned. " That's what Kabuto did to me?"

Gai nodded. "Your will was strong though, insanely so, this is a far more advanced curse mark than Anko's and equal to Sasuke's. It has entirely receded, your will is stronger than Orochimaru's and so you reduced it to just a painful seal."

Mika fingered the mark. "I can hear it whispering now that I know it's there... but I won't use it. Orochimaru reminded me of my father, he experimented on babies. I have few morals really, but kids... they are off limits. I already planned on mastering seals for my own needs and those of a few others, I will be using this as a challenge, to undo Orochimaru's work or get something out of it..."

"I wish you luck, brat. "

They all turned to see Anko, the Proctor of the Second exam, arrive. "That mark is stronger than mine and it will lure you to Orochimaru with each and every use. Never underestimate it."

Mika scowled and Hinata felt a rush of his killer intent flood out of him, even Anko recoiled from it's use. "I am smarter than him, Anko, I am a gifted medic, and I am far more determined than you can understand. I will help myself if no one else can or will... I will help you too if you wish it."

The woman smiled. "I would like that kid, I saw your match, it was impressive as hell. Anyway, since you're awake, you are to visit the Council, they summoned you as soon as you were awake. Come with me, I'll lead the way."

Mika nodded. "I need clothes... and how long was I out?"

"Three days... oh and I should warn you... two things. The Hokage is dead... and your meeting with the Council is not entirely a good thing."

Mika groaned. "Great, just fucking... can Hinata come with me?"

Anko shrugged. "Can't see why not."

Mika slowly got up and turned, kissing Hinata's forehead and then Gai's. "Thank you, and sorry..."

They both waved off his concern, with Hinata saying. "Just repaying the favor."

"So, what did I miss during the invasion? I am sorry to have been unable to help, but I was kidnapped and unconscious."

Chapter end, tell me what you think in the reviews.

This was a joy to write and very hard but in a good way.

Love, your Ninja Overlord,

Mika.
