Naruto waited in a dark corner of a terrace and Neji was using a cloaking jutsu. Many people passed but nobody suspicious. Time passed with no words and barely a sound. Neji activated his Byakugan and looked around. Something caught his eye. There were two men trying to cloak themselves but the Byakugan could see through it. Neji undid the jutsu and motioned to Naruto. They stole quietly into an alley. The two men went inside and disappeared from view. Naruto and Neji ran full speed into the building.
"Quiet now. Let's get them with their backs turned" said Neji
"Roger" replied Naruto. They both ran into the room and saw a woman with a kunai to her throat and two grass ninja in the room.
"Damn Jonin. Get them Kuso!" said one. The man apparently named Kuso, ran head on with a kunai and tried to slash Neji. Neji anticipated the attack and pushed the pressure point on Kuso's neck. Kuso fell to the floor with his eyes staring into space. The other man lifted the kunai into the air and came down point first into the woman's throat. Blood spattered everywhere and Naruto and Neji were distraught. Neji looked at the dead woman's eyes. They were whitish, the same shade as his. They were Hyuga eyes and this made Neji very vengeful. Neji used his gentle fist technique and hit right where the heart was. The man fell over instantly. Neji kicked his side and smeared the man's blood off of his face.
"Come on Naruto. Let's get home" said Neji
"Uhh, okay..."
They walked back to their village in silence. It was late and both of the Jonin were falling asleep while they walked. Then Naruto noticed something strange.
"Neji, look ahead with your Byakugan would you? Look at the village" Neji did so and looked stunned. "What Neji?"
"Konoha is burning!"
"What!?!?"
"Yes it's on fire and there are other ninja there! Come on!" The two startled, tired and worrisome Jonin ran all the way to the village and got to the gates. There were no more ninja. Just corpses and weapons. They were mostly Leaf ninja bodies and leaf headbands. Then one of the bands caught Neji's eye. It hung from a peg on a wall. He checked the symbol and it wasn't leaf. It wasn't mist, waterfall, or even sound. It was the grass ninja. Neji was silent. Naruto ran to his house and looked inside.
"Hinata!!!" Naruto ran to her and then something bounced him away before he was even within ten feet of her. Naruto looked in Hinata's arms and there was Kiri. Kiri's orange fire seal was glowing and emitting a forcefield. "Kiri" he said "Kiri" Kiri looked up into her father's eyes and giggled the way babies do when they see their dads. The field went down and Naruto ran to Hinata's side. Naruto picked up Kiri and gave her to Neji who was sitting in the doorway.
"Hinata? Hinata?" Naruto was choking up his words. "Hinata? Please wake up! Please! You can't be! No! not after all this! Not with Kiri and me! You can't die please no!" Neji looked away and closed his eyes.
"Hinata!!"
