Prodigy:
Two weeks after Tenten left, Neji had revealed himself as an imposter from the Sound Country. He had been attempting to assassinate Naruto. The real Neji was found a few weeks later in the Hidden Sound Village, beaten nearly to death. Orochimaru was defeated by none other than Naruto with help from Gaara. Sasuke was returned to normal thanks to Orochimaru's defeat. Akatsuki was taken down. When Neji found that Tenten had left, his entire world crumbled and he returned to how he had once been – cold, heartless, and alone in the world. Not even Rock Lee could break his shield of stone.

Twelve years later, a small girl plays on the playground with her only two friends, Uchiha Rei, who looked exactly like her mother, Sakura, and Uchiha Kazemaru, who looked exactly like his father, Sasuke (they're twins (both have mastered the Sharingan)). Just that year these three thirteen-year-olds had become genins. This young girl had dark, dark brown hair pulled into a loose ponytail (like Neji's). Here white eyes sparkled in the morning sunlight. Though she had only come to Konoha a few weeks ago. Ruru was nominated the rookie of the year.
She wore a dress which started like a traditional kimono, but was all one piece except for the obi, and had two long slits on either side that reached from the end of the dress to a couple inches below the hip. It was mainly black, but also white, and the white obi was decorated with black lotus flowers and the main black part was decorated with white lotus flowers. It was made by Rock Lee (believe it or not). Underneath she wore tight black shorts that reached down to her knees (like Sakura's) and she also wore white leg warmers with black edges. As for weapons, she carried a giant sickle called Disutorakuta, or just Kuta, on her back and many other weapons were hidden on her somewhere, but no one knew where she hid so many weapons and scrolls. But besides these weapons, Ruru could also use her Byakugan pretty well. She wore white bandages around her forehead, and over that her forehead protector.
It was unknown that a Hyuga resided outside of Konoha until a few weeks ago, when the Sand delivered Ruru to Konoha. Ruru's mother had been kidnapped by some enemy ninja, but Ruru wouldn't talk to anyone about it. Ruru now resides in the Hyuga compound, taken care of by Hinata, who is the current Hokage's (Naruto's) wife. However, Hiashi is still deciding who will take care of Ruru permanently, because Hinata has three children of her own. Right now, he is in a meeting with the other Hyuga elders, discussing the topic. The meeting is almost over…

"WHAT! I AM NOT TAKING CARE OF A KID!" A string of cusses unable to be repeated in this particular story (although it is rated T) flew from Hyuga Neji's mouth as he stormed out of the meeting.
Hiashi sighed as he watched his nephew go angrily across the compound, frightening the small children that played quietly. Then Hiashi smiled; hopefully this girl, Ruru, could brighten Neji up. Ever since that teammate of his left, well…he hadn't been of the best disposition.
Ruru's belongings were moved from the room near Hinata and Naruto's to the room right next to Neji's. It was even connected to Neji's! Neji sat at a table in his room, sipping tea quietly. Everything was so peaceful, so serene, so…
"Tou-san," a voice said. Neji jumped violently, almost spilling his tea. Neji turned and glared a Ruru, who was standing there innocently. "I'm going to go and train with Kazemaru, Rei, and Ino-sensei. Okay?"
"I'm…not…your…father!" Neji said, eyebrow twitching. Veins appeared on the back of his head as Ruru sarcastically rolled her eyes at him and turned to leave. "That girl needs to learn something of respect," Neji muttered.
"I heard that!" yelled Ruru. Neji just sighed and sank back into his chair. All of a sudden the day wasn't so pleasant. He closed his eyes and just as he was about to fall asleep…
"You should go and watch her train if you don't have anything else to do," Hinata said, interrupting his nap.
"ARGH!" Neji roared. "Why is everyone interrupting my peaceful, serene, quiet, pleasant morning!"
Hinata stared at him. "I like to watch my kids train."
"Ruru's not my kid!"
"For now she is. Deal with it!" Hinata crossed her arms.She had obviously grown more…um…social since she began dating Naruto. But then again, becoming a mother changes everyone. Neji grumbled something about 'Shikamaru's right…troublesome women…' and got up to watch Ruru, Rei, and Kazemaru train.

Ruru and Kazemaru were paired together while training and Rei was training with Ino. Neji sat at the end of the clearing, meditating. This wasn't going to be very interesting; they were just Genin, after all, and not very good. Neji could…um…tell. (An/ Right…he could tell…coughnotcough)
"Argh!" Ruru screamed. Neji smirked. So she wasn't very strong at all; she couldn't even defeat Uchiha Sasuke's child. "You completely wrecked my hair! I'll kill you!"
Neji raised an eyebrow and opened his eyes. Ruru was yelling fiercely at Kazemaru, who sweat-dropped along with Neji. Ruru was still holding her giant sickle, which she called Kuta, but now had a murderous intent in her eyes. A single strand of hair was let loose from her ponytail.
"BYAKUGAN!" Ruru activated her Byakugan. "Hakke Rokujuyon Sho!" (Divine Sixty-four Strikes). Kazemaru's eyes widened in shock as he attempted to dodge the attack, but could only dodge about ten of the sixty-four. He would be barely able to use jutsus now as fifty-four of his chakra (energy) holes were closed.
Ino and Rei had stopped sparring and now focused on Ruru and Kazemaru. Ino was prepared to stop them if they got too serious. Neji narrowed his eyes; if Ruru had grown up out of the Hyuga compound, and if she was a member of the Branch family, then how had she figured out how to do such advanced attacks without anyone teaching her? Unless…
"Sharingan!" Kazemaru yelled, activating his Sharingan. "Katon: Hosenka no Jutsu!" (Fire Release: Mythical Fire Phoenix Technique!) Multiple balls of fire flew at Ruru, who easily dodged them, but wasn't able to see the shuriken hidden in the fire.
Thinking quickly, she shouted, "Hakkesho Kaiten!" (Eight Trigram Palms Heavenly Spin!) Chakra was expelled from all of Ruru's body, making it impossible for the shurikans to pass her defense, and beside this, it hit Kazemaru himself and he was smashed against a tree. Before he could get up again, he was hit with Ruru's Hakke Kusho (Eight Trigrams Empty Palm). Kazemaru was forced back through the tree, creating a large hole. Ruru continued using the basic Juken (Gentle Fist) style on Kazemaru until he flew back violently, steaming as he crashed against the ground. He coughed up a bit of blood and fell unconscious. The victor was Ruru.
Impossible…Neji thought, as he tried to comprehend what had just happened. How…unless…is she a genius? Like me? Yes…I believe that I have just found the next prodigy of the Hyuga clan.
Ruru smirked and droped forward, fainting. Neji stood up and walked over to Ruru, picking her up. Ino picked up Kazemaru, and they started off towards the hospital, Rei following close behind.

Later than night…
"Hiashi-sama, I believe that Ruru is the next prodigy of the Hyuga clan," Neji said, addressing the man in front of him. Hiashi stared out of the window at the dark night.
"I wouldn't doubt it," Hiashi said. "She is, after all…never mind. All that matters now is that you take good care of her."
"Yes sir, but…she keeps calling me 'Tou-san'."
"So? Deal with it," Hiashi said. Neji got up and left. What he couldn't see was Hiashi smiling out at the night. It's only right that she calls you that. You should know. And to think they call you a genius.

Okay, I'm going to be giving profiles on the OCs in this story. And by the way; if you can read this story, there is no doubt you can write a simple little review! Please…just click that little button down there…I worked so hard! PLEASE! I'll start crying if you don't…
Ruru's Profile:
Age: Twelve
Date of Birth: May 15
Height: 4' 10"
Weight: 77lbs. (35kg)
Hair Color: Brown, almost black
Eye Color: White
Blood Type: O
Rank: Genin
Known Jutsu/Kekkei Genkai:
Byakugan: A person with the Byakugan can have a nearly 360 degree field of vision, save for a small blind spot near the back of the neck which is its only known weakness. Byakugan users can detect anything around them within a 50-meter radius (although later in the manga Hyūga Neji manages to increase the radius to 800 meters), making them close-range combat experts. When the Byakugan is activated, the user can see through most matter over extremely long distances -- how well may depend on the individual user -- and perceive the body's inner chakra coil system. Also, it cannot be blocked, unlike the Sharingan.
Juken (Gentle Fist): The inner coil system that transfers chakra around the body is very close and is essentially a part of all of the human body, including crucial organs. Members of the Hyuga clan train in a special fighting style that requires the Byakugan and excellent chakra control; through the Byakugan they are able to see the opponent's inner coil system which they forcefully channel their own chakra into, causing severe damage to organs nearby. This is an offensive and deffensive short-range attack, with no rank.
Hakkesho Kaiten (Eight Trigrams Heavenly Spin): A very advanced Taijutsu passed down in the Hyuga main house it uses a solid amount of chakra expelled from the whole body - as opposed to imprecise bursts from only specific parts of the body, which is the most even your typical Jounin can manage - to stop any attack in its tracks, then push it back with equal force, making it a very efficient defense and also making it possible to use it as an offense. Despite it being a secret jutsu passed only in the Hyūga main house, Hyūga Neji of the Branch house mastered it without any training or information of the technique from the Main house, but rather discovered the technique himself and trained with his teammate Tenten a weapons specialist, to perfect it, which is a sure testimony to his genius. This is an offensive and deffensive short-range attack, with no rank. (In this story, if Ruru mastered it like Neji did, then she would be considered a genius like Neji)
Hakke Rokujuyon Sho (Eight Trigrams Sixty-four Palms): A very advanced Gentle Fist Style technique, the user must be able to see the Chakra holes (tenketsu, pressure points) of the opponent and execute it with incredible dexterity and precision in order for it to be effective. In a series of two heavy strikes, followed by two more, followed by four, followed by eight, followed by sixteen, followed by a dazzling thirty-two consecutive pinpoint-precision strikes, this jutsu closes 64 of the 361 tenketsu of the opponent completely. The last of the sixty-four strikes appears to be a blow with the full, open hand, rather than the fingertips of the index and middle fingers. The end result is a victim with disrupted chakra flow, making it very problematic to stay standing up and impossible to execute jutsu, unless an alternate chakra source is available, which is exceedingly rare and has only been demonstrated thus far in people containing a Biju (Tail Beast). This jutsu is passed down in the Hyūga main house, but it is theoretically possible to figure it out on one's own if one is talented and insightful enough to do so (Hyūga Neji being the only known example). This is an offensive short range attack, with no rank.
Hakke Kusho (Eight Trigrams Empty Palm): A palm thrust, capable of being done while out of arms' reach, that pushes away the victim violently with chakra. This is apparently used in a similar style as Hakkeshō Kaiten. This is an offensive short-range attack, with no rank.
Disutorakuta (Distructor): Disutorakuta, or just Kuta, is Ruru's sickle. It consists of a curved blade with a short, one-hand handle attached. The inside of the curve is sharp, so that the user can swing the blade at the opponent, catchingthem in the curve and slicingthem at the same time. Attached to the end of the handle is a long chain, which is attached to another handle with no second sickle. Ruru's sickle is about three or four times the size of a normal sickle, so it is about three and a half feet long. Ruru carries it in the back of her obi, sort of like Temari does with her fan and sash. The sickle's name, Disutorakuta, means Distructor. She calls it Kuta for short. (I still haven't revealed everything she can do with Kuta.)
