"Alright then once I'm finished with the storyboard then you guys can look at it and make changes if you want after a week we should be hiring crew and maybe in a couple of weeks we should start filming" The short Hyuuga female said as she wrote on one of her notebooks in front of the band, Itachi, Madara and her two friends. Everyone nodded and she smiled as she and her two friends were the first ones to leave. Madara then leaned towards the band and gave them a small smile.
"I'm pleased to discover that you are all getting along. Hinata, Itachi and myself will be looking at sets this week if any of you want to join please let me know." Said the oldest as he began to get up and leave with Itachi leaving the band to them selfs.
"I didn't know that a music video could be such a long process." sighed Shikamaru as he woke up from his nap clearly hearing everything that the sound tech/director/producer/editor had just said.
"I still wonder who she is at the school and her two friends they only talk when she asks them a question and I swear I've seen both of them once, but I dont know where." said the white haired male as he looked at the band with everyone nodding in agreement.
"She's probably someone that hangs in the library that doesn't talk to anyone." replied Naruto as he tapped his cheek really trying to think of a girl that looked like her.
"Maybe she's a teachers pet that always hangs out after class, but sits in the back of the room?" said Jugo as he looked at his two friends.
"Those three are a wonder huh?" Sasuke quietly said as he thought about every class he might have had with them.
"How about we go and try to figure out who they are and first one to notice who they are wins a prize." Said Shikamaru as he yawned placing both of his arms around his neck leaning back against the chair.
"Who ever wins has to have each member of the band do a dare!" cried Naruto as everyone in the band agreed as they high fived and left Madara's conference room.
Why is it that we never see you guys at school? Hinata read the message and smiled. Somehow she knew she would get that question sooner or later so she quickly replied to the youngest Uchiha.
Its a secret. replied the Hyuuga as she started to sketch the ending of a first scene of the music video which was the band members facing each other making faces in a mexican sudden death match.
No, Really why? Or is it a secret to your secret? Sasuke replied, somehow when they aren't talking face to face she was actually comfortable and herself around him. They had became friends sort of not that she would admit that. The two would talk about music and basically everything that concerned the band or the music video and sometimes about themselves which was right now.
Fang, Faith and I are good at keeping our grades in check and instead of school 5 times a week, we usually go in 2 or 3 times for about half of the day. Faith works for the IT in the school, and I help out with the schools news network and Fang does what he can in order to help usually running around doing Tsunades chores. We work for the school the rest of the week allowing us to skip classes whenever we like. It's pretty cool if you want to stay invisible. The Hyuuga had replied which was all somewhat true. The three had actually skipped a grade allowing them to fix their schedules to fit around their busy schedule (helping around the school and staying home when the family business needed some help).
I don't believe you
Well you should, It's true! We don't like people getting into our business. The three of us have actually been friends since we were in diapers!
Diapers? Really? I know your last name is Hyuuga, so that is a hint.
What makes you think I'm a Hyuuga?
The eyes are a dead give away.
Really? Well I'm not.
Well, whos your mother?
Anko Mitarashi. replied Hinata which was somewhat true she was actually her mothers cousin who got married to a local dango shop owner. She knew she needed a cover story and happily her aunt had agreed saying that she was proud of her being bold and shit.
I don't believe you.
Then don't. She replied as she took a quick picture of her drawing. On the paper was a quick drawing of the band facing each other one side dressed in their stage attire while the opposite side had all of them dressed as nerds with each of them having a funny facial expression.
Its awesome, but why the faces?
Just a close up I think that It would be great to see your faces with all of you making silly faces. I was thinking Suigetsu could have fake teeth instead of his weird pointy ones.
Seems fun how much more do you have to do?
Maybe 50 more, Fang and Faith are both helping so it should go by faster.
50? Thats a lot!
Exactly! I gotta get finishing so maybe I'll see you sometime. bye.
Exactly! I gotta get finishing so maybe I'll see you sometime. bye. Sasuke decided to leave it at that and stop texting her due to the music video being at stake. He had never knew students that actually skipped a grade and can form their own schedule based on their grades. He wondered if that was actually true due to the fact that no one has ever seen them. Along with her mother being Anko the co-owner too the Dango shop kinda seemed true, they both looked alike and her husband Kakashi actually had some of her traits. Shaking it off he decided to agree with what she said and continue with his homework. Maybe he'll go and see her at her parents or something he quickly thought as he continued on with his homework.
The next day Hinata had finished most of her the work that needed to be done with the music video and happily she took her sketches with her so the three could revise and compare finished their sketches. It was early that morning and they had all agreed to meet at their usual cafe for breakfast and head to school for their afternoon classes. She had also decided to stay at her aunts house for a while just in case Sasuke or anyone decided to come by. Carrying an extra set of clothes along with a makeup bag that included contacts was necessary just in case they had a stunt from the last time and anyone recognized her. Kiba was the first one there with a big smile on his face as he called Hinata over to sit with him and she gladly did once she got her cinnamon tea, a new drink she had discovered and loved. She got her drink and bagel for breakfast and happily sat next to him.
"I missed your tattoos." She said quietly as she touched his cheeks that showed his dark red fang marks that were permanently on his skin for life. The three had actually met up with the band often and always had to dress up in their disguises so she had rarely seen him without his makeup this past weekend.
"I know I did too, makeup sucks sometimes." He said referring to his cheeks he had covered in makeup whenever he had to be in his disguise.
"And I missed your face." Hinata said as she looked up to Shino who had his scarf up back in his face with a coffee in one hand and a muffin in the other.
"We miss your usual look, why did you decide to change?" asked Shino as he sat down on the table. Hinata was currently wearing tan skinny jeans with a white collared shirt along with a green, purple and pink plaid pullover vest that held a pen in a pocket over her outfit was a baggy heavy black cardigan that allowed her to hide herself. Over her neck was a light purple tie and her hair had gotten quite different due to her bangs being pinned back with bobby pins and a beanie covering half of her head allowing her forehead to show she had to say it was pretty different without her bangs. Her thick rectangle framed glasses covered up her face which sadly had a crack on the left lends due to her falling down the stairs when she had gotten up this morning. Curse her aunt for not putting her stuff away (Anko was a naturally messy person and was lucky that her husband kept after her). Hinata's skin was really bad due to her not placing any makeup on and under her eyes were dark dark circles which once again was her fault due to little sleep.
"We need to be invisible today, no one must know who and what we do. I have a feeling that the band wants to find out who we are, so stay as far away from them as much as possible." she said softly, one thing that she couldn't hide from was her hair, she was the only Hyuuga with unusually indigo hair which she loved and hated. Luckily she remembered a few students in the school which had almost the same color hair so hopefully no one would notice her. She then went in her bag to get out a folder with the first few scenes of the video and showed them to her two friends and they gladly followed getting their folders.
"First scene looks like this." She said as she showed a picture of a warehouse that had a sign that said Punks versus nerds. Then another picture with the bands going towards each other in both nerd and normal attire. Along with them making funny faces towards one another followed by another picture with Sasuke singing with the band behind them and so on. Hinatas last panel of the story board was of Sasuke getting up from the ground and placing his glasses on looking a his nerd friends. Shinos picture had the boys with water balloons full of paint sneaking on the regular attire boys. The following pages was of the ballons being thrown making everyone colored in paint. His next panels were of everyone playing with the paint and Suigetsu hitting a balloon with his guitar. His last panel was of Nerd and Regular attire Sasuke singing to himself. Kibas panels was of the band playing covered in paint with the nerd and regular attire band rocking out with them. Most of his pictures were just sketches of them doing things with the paint like both Nerd and Regular attire Naruto playing with the drums while his last panel was of Sasuke throwing a paint balloon at the screen ending the video. To be honest Hinata was grateful of her two friends had helped and she was overall happy with their sketches she could tell that they taken their time and effort in this project just as much as her.
"It looks great I cant wait until we meet this afternoon instead of the end of the week, so maybe we could start hiring the crew this week!" she proclaimed bringing her hands over her mouth almost bursting into tears. She was very excited to start filming so she quickly texted Madara, Itachi and Sasuke to tell them that they were finished with the story board.
Great Job Hinata! So we should meet after school to look over the story board and then go look at a warehouse so we can start filming? replied a excited Itachi.
Thank you for the text, Itachi and I are talking about a meeting after your classes to discuss everything and look for a studio to start filming. Madara replied, Hinata assumed that she was with Itachi due to the similar text message.
Wow.150 pages done already? So see you at Uchiha studios later? Want to meet up in front of the school we can give you guys a ride if you want? Sasuke replied.
Hinata quickly replied to everyone telling Sasuke that she, Shino and Kiba would meet them in front of the school so they all could go to Uchiha Studios after class, meaning that she would have to skip her last class with her two friends in order to keep her image; she had to at least make it believable that the director Hinata really went to the school.
After the events of the day Hinata had taken out her camera as she gotten out of the school, she was completely changed and made up along with her two best friends. Sasuke, Jugo and Suigetsu were all waiting for the trio to come out of the school Hinatas camera catching the trio trying to act cool.
"So they actually come to the school, huh?" Suigetsu said as he leaned against Sasukes truck as Sasuke replied with a quick Hn with Jugo remaining quiet as usual.
"Alright so are you guys ready?" Hinata asked as she pointed her camera in front of Jugos face who gave a small shy smile and shrugged-He really wasn't a talker.
"Yeah we just need to wait for Shikamaru and Naruto, Jugo is going to tag along with them and Suigetsu if he wants to." Sasuke told the three and the camera as it was pointed towards him.
"We can wait you guys go on ahead." Jugo said quietly as he dragged his friend to go and search for the missing two. Hinata got the shot of Jugo pulling on the shorter males collar.
"Alright, well text me when you guys are leaving." Sasuke shouted as the two were already almost to the school entrance. He got his keys from his pocket and unlocked the doors for everyone and they all casually went inside the dark blue two cab truck. She had to say that it was quite tidy for a males car compared to Kibas messy black compact car. The everything inside of the truck was black including the black leather seats, dashboard, floor, everything was black. The only places with color was the stereo which had bright blue lights and buttons and his meters/shifter which were the usual orange. She had to admit that this was a very nice truck even though it had took her a while to get in due to the height(she had to jump). With that the four had left as her camera sat perfectly inside the cup holder catching a great angle that looked up to him.
"Do they talk at all?" Sasuke asked as he pointed his right thumb towards her two friends that sat in the back.
"Yes they do, They're more comfortable around me. I usually can't get Fang to shut up sometimes." Hinata said as she gave a small chuckle as Kiba hit her shoulder.
"Anyway since I have you to myself, why not ask some questions for my video?" she asked as he gave a small nod and she smiled happily.
"Alright, so when did you decided to come up with a band? And why did you chose who you chose?" She asked, Sasuke clearly humming to the song that was playing in the background.
"Well, after Itachi formed Akatsuki, I realized that music is what I want to do. I wanted to create my own music that Itachi does. How I chose everyone just fell into place, I mean Naruto and I were friends since Kindergarden and when Itachi formed his band we would always go and sit in their practice and Naruto would catch onto Deidaras beats and soon enough he gave him his drums, Naruto was so excited after that and suggested that we'd start a band. So throughout middle school the both of us practiced and I learned the guitar and soon enough we met Shikamaru who was a classic musician and soon enough he learned the bass so we were a trio and we practiced some more and we actually got good and we played on stage once and wow was that amazing. When we entered high school we met Suigestu and his cousin Jugo who knew how to play guitar and they were actually good together they read each others minds and it was great to hear them harmonize yeah thats how we got started." Sasuke said as he told the whole bands biography which to Hinata was really a great story, Itachi had formed a friendship without even knowing.
"Next question. What is your favorite song to play live?" She asked she kind of had a good idea what it was, but she wanted to know why.
"In friends we trust, the song itself talks about friends and how no matter what they always have your back. The lyrics explains it all, the reason why I like playing live is because I love hearing the fans sing along. They all get the song." Sasuke replied as he made a sharp turn.
"Describe yourself in one word." Hinata said as she looked at him.
"Hansome." was his answer and the whole car started laughing. His eyebrows furrowed and they continued on to laugh.
"Next question, what is your most embarrassing moment EVER?" Hinata asked emphasizing ever way too much.
"Well in middle school, I kissed Naruto."
"You kissed Naruto?!" Hinata asked clearly not believing the older male in front of her. She was clearly giggling.
"Yep, we actually had a staring contest and I guess we were too close or whatever and someone pushed Naruto and we ended up kissing, we always laugh about it now, but when it happened we didn't even talk for three days." He said as he banged on the steering wheel and gave a slight chuckle. Once the question was answered they had made it to the studio. Hinata stopped her clip getting a shot of Sasuke turning off the truck. They all got out of the truck and headed into the studio, to the top floor and into the conference room waiting for the rest of the band and Madara to come into the conference room. Hinata gathered two folders from Kiba and Shino and placed them under her own folder and grabbed the tape and hung them up on the glass wall towards her left. With help of her friends she was able to place the panels in the correct order in three rows which showed the whole sequence of the upcoming video. Once she was done Madara came in-The other four had came in a few minutes earlier.
"Well, heres the story board. Fang, Faith and I looked over it and took some panels out, but they are on the table if you want to add it in or not." she quickly said as the seven males got off of the office chairs and headed to the panels of paper that told a story. They were all examining it closely with Madara looking at the whole set three maybe even four times.
"Why isn't there anything around these areas?" Madara pointed to a spot with blank panels where the paint ballon fight would be going on.
"Well, what I was planning on doing is having a giant paint ballon fight and just whatever I get on camera is what will be put in the video. I wanted it to be as natural and playful as possible so I decided not to add anything to that part."Hinata explained as Madara nodded, he was completely understanding towards the sound tech and she was grateful for that.
"Okay, and hiring the crew shouldn't be that hard. I'm giving you a deadline until the end of this week to finish up with finding the crew, props and anything else needed for the video. I've even gotten you a warehouse, so please use it wisely for your upcoming videos. I trust you three." Madara said to the three as he handed Hinata a key to the new warehouse Madara had gotten them. She was shouting/screaming/crying and fan-girling all at the same time in her head. Everyone stood in awe as Madara gave her the key, they all didn't know Madara could trust someone so easily, but then again she had earned it.
Wow, more than 3,000 words! Anyway let me know what you think about Hinata and her nerdish style. I'm trying to make her unrecognizable when she's at school along with the boys. Kiba puts lots of makeup over his red tattoos on his cheeks when he's disguised because if he didn't everyone would know that Kiba hangs out with Hinata and so on. Shino on the other hand always wears a scarf that covers half of his face when he's not disguised and when he is... boy does he look beautiful(HOT!). I kinda have a picture of Hinata as a nerd as a reference, but she still looks beautiful! So I had to add layers (Beanie, Cardigan, cracked glasses and new hair) to make her recognizable. If you want to see the picture let me know I'll send it to you or something. Any other questions regarding this story LET ME KNOW! Hope you enjoyed this chapter (If you did leave a review!) and hope to see you in the next!
