Warnings: Nothing here but an added OC and an explanation (a small one at that) of why Hinata's been sold for and why. Enjoy!
Normal P.O.V
Following Star into the long and dark hallway Hinata's eyes were once again compelled to the floor of the hallway.
"Hey, don't look down. Hold your head high Nightingale. Here we don't hold our head down, you shouldn't feel ashamed. I don't know you personally yet but I can tell that you'll have a great start here and maybe you'll love it here," said Star as Hinata's eyes met Star's. Giving Hinata a smile Star led Hinata once again through the dark hallways. The darkness seemed to give off an effect that seemed to slowly envelope around them as if slowly devouring them. But Hinata liked the darkness, it was one of the few things that seemed to always be true no matter the situation.
"Well here we are," said Star as she led Hinata into a large room that was painted in an light yellowish color. The walls were tall and looked sort of tattered as if a storm had passed through the room. Following Star further in the room Hinata saw the entire interior of the room that was five times larger than her room. The space was by no means filled with extravagant home decorations or anything that you would expect to find in a room that is about the same size of a very large living room. There isn't really a good enough explanation of that would really describe the size of the room nor more importantly the emptiness furniture wise in the room. But the room itself seemed to give off a worn and homey feel to it.
Standing in the middle of the large room Hinata eyes feel upon the only other occupant in the room other than her and Star. She sat in one of the twin beds that was closest to the window. She sat Indian-style and was holding her chin on her right arm that was sitting on the ledge of the window. The girl turned her attention to Hinata and Star.
Smiling Star stretched her arm toward the sitting girl. "This is Dream, your roommate, until we get the left wing rebuilt."
"Wh-what happened to-to-"
"Oh, um... I forgot. Dream?"
The girl called Dream stood up and took a deep breath. "Well Ease was doing one of her 'experiments' and ended up blowing the entire wing sky high not to mention gave the Prime Minster of Sky Island quiet a scare. Not to mention injuring twenty-eight villagers and killing two dogs and someone's goldfish."
"Ah, so that's what happened. Now I know where that missing money went to," said Star as she walked out of the room to stop suddenly. "Oh, before I forget Dream your job for the day is to stay with Hinata and to answer all of her questions as best as you can. Bring her by my office around three and stop by Nyx's room around noon."
"Where is Nyx going?"
"Nowhere its just that she gets up late. That's all," said Star as she exits out of the room.
Looking at where Star had once been Hinata turned her eyes to Dream. Dream had moved from her spot in front of the window to a closet not to far from the twin bed.
Hinata's P.O.V
blank
"Um, hello? Hel-lo!!! Earth to newbie."
"I-I'-I'm so-so-sorry! I did-did'n-didn't mean to-"
"Whoa slow down there. Calm down don't kill yourself. Are you felling o.k.? Talk," said Dream.
"Talk?" I asked.
"Yes, like- I mean- that tell me how you feel. Tell me about your family. Something of that nature," answered Dream.
"Well, I don't know how I feel but-... I don't know," I answered. Yet again my eyes were drawn to the floor. Surely Dream would get tire of me and go to bed. Yet again I found myself completely wrong yet again as I felt a warm hand on my chin lifting my chin. Staring back at me were small bright green eyes and a very tanned face. A smile was etched on her on face. "Now, now don't do that. You don't have to be afraid of little young me. I'm not a snake - or... anything that goes bump in the night. Now come on you should go to bed its already 12:54. And believe me you are going to be busy in the next week. You came in the right time we going to need all the help we can get. So your not going to have the luxury of getting to know how this entire 'slave' thing goes so let me give a quick explanation. But before I continue let me tell you I am not that great, so lets starts shall we?
Azure Island is in the middle of the Seven Island and is the main trading center. The birth population rate is about 14 each year compared to the 67 average of the other Seven Island. So to keep up with the demands of the masses Azure Island. A trade route for workers from Ice Island, Rose Island, and Anaranjada Islands. Even with the workers from those Island the work force is still low. Aneko and Saiyuri had suggested to Lady and to Miss to buy 'slaves' from the 'Warring States'."
"The warring states?" I asked.
"Yes, the warring states. The lands were we are from."
Normal P.O.V
"You know you shouldn't hold your head down you know it makes you seem weak and you-you look like-no not look like- I mean shouldn't I say- Oh, no, no that's not it. Your um... not like your family aren't you?"
"Uh, no."
"So, aren't you kind of like the black sheep of your family?"
"I-I uh.. gue-guess so."
"Then wouldn't it be safe to say that your family is the kind that expects nothing less from you and that love or... maybe not love but are great fighters in your particular family fighting style. Ah, your... let me guess. Ah, your-your-your not the kind of spirit who would enjoy, nevertheless would want to hurt someone else. Your the kind of spirit who likes to help, the kind who likes to do anything, maybe even everything if possible for everyone. Which is good, no? But your kind of spirit is rare and hard to find and is even taken lightly and abused. Most people don't notice you in a crowd unless they look at your eyes of course. But aren't I right? Your taken advantage of even by people who say they 'love' you. Your a people pleaser not that its bad by any means it just means that you have to teach yourself to think about you. You need to learn how to put yourself ahead of everyone else once in a while. You need to learn how to treat yourself to something nice for yourself. Because you'll always put someone else before you. You know?"
"I guess s-s-s-so. I-I'l-I'll try that som-some-someday. I will try."
"Try. That's all you need in life to succeed. That's what my mother told me before she died. She said that no matter what as long as you tried your best you'll feel like you succeeded even if you failed as long as you put your heart into it that's all that matters. As long as you can smile then your not defeated yet.
So, Nightingale tell me about yourself. Like where are you from and that sort of stuff."
"I-uh..um..I am from Konohagakure."
"Ah, Konoha. You mean your all the way from there? I wonder how long it would have actually taken you to get from your home to here if you walked or ran here. My estimate is probably about more or less nine months to one full year that's a long way from here."
"Ah! Were are we?"
"We are on the island called Azure Island. Azure Island is one of the Seven islands of the West."
"If it makes you feel any better I am originally from Amegakure."
"Your far from home also,"
"And loving every single second of it."
"Don't you miss your home."
"Not really. I don't remember much about being in Rain but my father had originally sold me to a man named Toshi but instead Toshi sold me to Keniji who sold me to Lady and I've been here ever since then."
"Wh-"
"The true reason to me being sold is that my mother was sick and my father didn't have enough money to pay for her hospital fees. In turn he sold me and my sister to try to get enough money for mother's hospital fees. Toshi sold me because I wouldn't let him sleep with me and every time he tried to I fought back. So he sold me to Keniji who was looking for a maid but since I can't cook worth a lick or clean. He sold me to Lady who was passing the town and she told me she was looking for someone like me. For what? I still don't have a clue and I've been here for almost four months. But I like it here. At least its better than living with mother."
"Why would you say that?"
"Mother has always been sick and Father always kept blaming me for her being sick. When he started blaming me my sister, Koto, started to argue with him saying that it was his fault and they ended up arguing until-hah! they turn blue in the face. But hey that's all in the past right? well you should go to sleep you're going to have one long day ahead of you."
End.
