Chapter 4

The next day started as the last. Hinata woke up in a depressed state, except a present had been left for her. When X had left, he left her a few purple leaves. Hinata quickly ate them, then ran off to school with no breakfast.

"Mistress Hinata…" A voice came softly from within a tree.

"Thank you X…" Hinata said as she continued walking.

"Mistress… please stop for a moment…" X plead.

"I have to get to school…" Hinata replied, as the effects of the purple haze came.


Class had already started, and Hinata was an hour late by time she got there. She stood in front of the door for a few moments as her body twitched uncontrollably. "I have got to do this…" She thought, as she slid the door open and walked in.

"Hinata are you alright?" Her teacher said, as he looked over.

"Yes, I'm fine…" Hinata said, as she stumbled to her chair.

"This is the second day you have been late…" their teacher said.

"I know… things have been rough at home…" Hinata replied, looking down at her arm.

"Alright then, lets get to our lesson than, class…" the teachers voice faded away.

"Hinata…" Shino started.

"What…" Hinata snapped back.

"Are you sure your ok? Your twitching a lot… and sweating…" Shino added.

"I'm fine… trust me…" Hinata said.

"You don't look fine…" Kiba said, looking over at Hinata.

"I SAID I'M ALRIGHT!" Hinata yelled. Everybody in the class looked at her.

"Hinata…" Their teacher began. "Can you give us a quick summary over what we just learned?" he asked.

"No sir…" Hinata said looking at the ground.

"Ok then, another out burst and I will have to send you out, please pay attention…" He said as he turned his back to the class.

"Hinata…" Shino started again. Hinata tried to ignore Shina. "Hinata…" Shino said again. "Hinata…!" Shino said one last time.

"What is it?" Hinata replied, getting agitated.

"Your arm…" Shino said, pointing to Hinata's bloody sleeve. Hinata's heart sank, and she began breathing rapidly. She felt like everybody was watching her, talking about her.

"Leave me alone!" Hinata yelled, as she ran out of the class room, into the nearest restroom. Everybody got quiet again.

"Hinata!" a voice called, it was Misty. She jumped up and chased Hinata into the restroom.


A trail of blood led to the bathroom and the stall Hinata was in.

"Come on Hinata… I just want to talk with you!" Misty said. Hinata sat in there hugging her knees, crying, and asking for anything to take the pain away. "Hinata!" Misty yelled. "Hinata! If there is a problem, you can talk to me… I won't let them harass you…" Misty said, as she moved over and locked the bathroom door.

"Your not lying… are you?" Hinata asked, between a few sobs.

"No… not at all…" Misty said, trying to coax Hinata out. Slowly the stall door swung open. With a crying Hinata inside. Misty simply walked in, and embraced the poor, confused soul. "Come on, lets get out into the open…" Misty said, as she walked Hinata out into the middle of the bathroom.

"Where did I go wrong?" Hinata started to say.

"Hinata you haven't gone anywhere wrong yet, just try to explain to me what's going on, and I will try to help you…" Misty said, as Hinata laid in her arms sobbing. Hinata was twitching more than ever now, and Misty knew it.

"I don't want to die…" Hinata said softly.

"I'm not going to let you die…" Mist said, as she rocked Hinata softly.

"I don't want to die… It wont stop bleeding…" Hinata added.

"What wont stop bleeding?" Misty asked, confused.

"My arm… it want stop bleeding…" Hinata said.

"Will you let me look at it?" Misty asked, as she pull Hinata back looking at her in the face.

"If you promise not to tell…" Hinata continued, as her crying softened to occasional sobs. Misty then saw the bloody sleeve, and it was apparent to her why Hinata thought she was going to die.

"I wont tell…" Misty said, as she reached for Hinata's sleeve.

"NO!" Hinata yelled, pulling it away.

"How can I look at it, if you don't let me?" Misty asked. Hinata sighed and put forward her arm. Misty slowly drug back the crimson sleeve, to see eight cuts on Hinata's under arm. The vary sight made Misty want to vomit, but she had to be strong, for both her and Hinata. "What did you take?" Misty asked, as she pulled Hinata's sleeve back down.

"Nothing… I swear…" Hinata said.

"Your twitching uncontrollably… you took something… you need to tell me what it is…" Misty said, as she pulled Hinata's hair out of her face.

"Purple haze…" Hinata said softly

"Ok… well lets try to clean you up some…" Misty said as she grabbed a towel and got it wet. "Hinata…" she started, as she washed Hinata's face. "If you're having problems… please come talk to me…" Misty said, moving to Hinata's arm.

"I didn't know… what to do…" Hinata said, as she slowly pulled back her sleeve to let Misty clean it.

"Hinata… I may not be related to you… but I want you to feel like I'm your sister…" Misty said, as she wiped away the blood, exposing only the cuts.

"I'm sorry… but…" Hinata started.

"But what? If this is because I like Naruto… You can have him…" Misty said, pulling a piece of cloth from her skirt, tightly wrapping Hinata's arm.

"But… I don't know if he likes me…" Hinata said.

"Well then, I guess I will have to find out for you… But as for now… your mentally sick… I want you to come stay with me for a few days, ok?" Misty said, looking into Hinata's face, with a concerned look.

"I don't know about my father…" Hinata started.

"I'm not asking you to come, I'm telling you to… Anyways, what would your father say if he saw your arm?" Misty said. Hinata just began to tear up again. Misty embraced her again. "Its ok… lets get back to class, ok?"


Misty's sense of time how ever was bad, class had already let out to lunch by time she and Hinata had left the restroom. Misty looked at Hinata.

"Are you hungery?" She asked. Hinata shook her head. "Ok… well I guess there is no sense in us staying then…" Misty started. "I'm sure teacher counted us absent since we ran out…" Misty looked at Hinata, but Hinata just looked at the ground.

"Hey Hinata, are you ok?" Shino asked, running up. Hinata simply turned her head away. "Hinata…" Shino started.

"She's ok… just tired, and needing rest…" Misty said, keeping Shino from harassing Hinata.

"Is this true, Hinata?" Shino asked, Hinata slowly nodded. "Ok, well, I will leave you alone then…" Shino said, walking off.

"Sissy…" a voice called out. Misty cringed quietly.

"Xavier, I told you not to call me by that, we're not kids anymore…" She said.

"Fine… but if your going to skip, now's your time, another mugging has taken place and no body is paying attention…" Xavier said. He looked at Hinata for a second, then back to Misty. "Need help?" he asked.

"Not at the moment, but maybe later…" Misty said.

"Ok then…" Xavier said, as he faded into the darkness. Misty looked at Hinata, and smiled.

"Ready to leave?" She asked, offering Hinata a hand. Hinata took her hand, looked up. "Ok then, get ready, because once we start, there's no stopping until we get to my house…" Misty said. Hinata nodded. Quickly the two ran from the building and them from roof top to roof top. The two made great timing arriving at Misty's house fast.

"Misty…" Hinata started. Just as Misty turned, Hinata collapsed and fell unconscious. With a sigh, Misty picked up Hinata, and carried her in.


An hour or so later, Hinata woke up. She was in a bed that wasn't hers. She had also been stripped of her clothes and in a thin nightgown.

"Glad to see your awake…" a voice said. It was Misty standing in the door way. Hinata looked down. "Listen, I know you haven't been eating right, so I want you to eat, ok?" Misty said, as she handed Hinata a plate with a sandwich on it.

"I'm not hungry…" Hinata said.

"You will eat, or I will expose what you have been doing…" Misty said. Hinata sighed, as she picked the sandwich. Misty sat on the bed, beside Hinata. "I talked to Naruto…" Misty said, knowing it would get her attention.

"ok…" she said quietly.

"We're still meeting tomorrow night… I'm hoping to talk to him then…" Misty added, as she bit her bottom lip. Hinata finished the sandwich, then looked at Misty.

"Where's my kunai…" she asked. Misty sighed, "It doesn't hurt any more… I no longer hurt… I have become numb inside…" Hinata started.

"So… that doesn't give you the right to hurt yourself the way you do…" Misty said, as she rubbed her arm softly.

"Its my body and I can do what ever I want to it!" Hinata yelled, grabbing Misty by her shirt. Misty looked away. "Do something!" Hinata said. Misty slapped, Hinata. Hinata simply looked back at her. "Please… hit me again…" Hinata said. Misty pushed her into her bed. Then stormed out.

"Mistress…" A voice called.

"X… what are you doing here?" Hinata asked.

"Making sure your ok…" X said. "Hey… I wanted to say something…" X said as he moved towards Hinata's bed.

"What is it?" Hinata said as she sat back up.

"Do you… like anybody?" X asked. Hinata blushed, but she thought of Misty and Naruto.

"No… why?" Hinata asked.

"I… like you…" X said. Hinata smiled softly.

"But I haven't seen your face…" Hinata said, as she took her hand, and touched X's mask softly.

"You have…" X said, as he placed his hand over Hinata's, and pulled his mask off slowly.

"X… Xavier?" Hinata said. Xavier than placed the mask back on.

"I'm sorry it has come to this…" He said, as he touched Hinata's stunned face.

"Just… JUST GO AWAY!" Hinata yelled, pushing Xavier away. Xavier took a step back, then turned around. And walked out of the room.


"Didn't go so well?" Misty said, as Xavier walked out.

"Please leave me alone, Sissy…" Xavier said. Misty stepped up and hugged Xavier.

"I know you have to be hurting… She's under a lot of stress… Give it a little time…" Misty plead.

"One week… if it doesn't work, I'm moving again…" Xavier said as he backed away from Misty.

"X… please don't act like this…" Misty said in her mind.
