Hoshiko's eyes focused on the two in the ring type area. Neji had brought out is bloodline jutsu. 'Byakugan, I've never seen it used before.' Thought the silver haired girl as she took interest in the Hyuuga boy. Naruto was thinking about something as Neji got into a fighting stance. Hoshiko's eyes never left the form of the Hyuuga though. There was just something about him that interest her.

"KAGE BUNSHIN NO JUTSU!" Naruto shouted as he made four shadow clones of himself.

"Heh, interesting guy." Kotetsu stated with a grin.

"Kage Bunshin is a Jounin level jutsu. For him to be able to use it…" Izumo stated with a impressed or worried expression Shiko could not tell which.

"This fight could be good." Kotetsu stated with another one of his grins. Neji was looking over the clones using his Byakugan to see which one is the real one.

"But, in the end, there's only one true body." He stated softly to Naruto.

"Heh. Stop acting tough!" Naruto called over to the young Hyuuga.

"If your gonna come, then come.." Neji declared to the blonde haired boy. The four clones then retorted back.

"Hey!"

"Stop!"

"Disrespecting!"

"Me!" They all called in a row. Then after they started to charge at the dark haired boy. Neji got into a defense position, jumping up and using two of the clones' heads as leverage. It was at this time that Hoshiko stopped watching the fight to just watch the sleek movements of the Hyuuga boy. A cough from nearby brought Hoshiko from her daze. She looked to where Hinata was. 'She must still be hurting from that fight with Neji that I heard about.' The silver haired girl gave her a pitied look then turned her green eyes back to the match.

"Gentle fist style, 64 hands of hakke." Neji muttered, causing Hoshiko gave amazement. She had heard o this move and thought that it could only be done with such grace by the Hyuuga main house. Everyone was speechless after he finished, Naruto was on the ground.

"I have 64 points on your body, you can no longer stand." Neji explained to a groaning Naruto. "Heh, is it painful? Stay on your knees before a power for cannot change and realize your worthlessness. Having your dreams come true with hard work is an illusion." Neji stated in rather a deadly calm tone. Hoshiko was rather too intent on catching every word that Neji said to pay attention to the coughing fit that Hinata seemed to go into.

"What?" Neji exclaimed after Naruto had been on the ground for a bit. The blonde started to raise to his feet. Naruto looked up at Neji with a pained grin.

"I told you.. I'm not giving up." He stated, Neji was looking transfixed at the moment. Hinata stated to cough uncontrollably making all the people around turn to see what was the matter. She then stared to cough up blood. Hoshiko stated to reach out to her but someone else offered their help before she could.

"I'll take a look." A person with a mask on stated looking down at the two.

"Who are you!" Kiba demanded, he was not going to trust this person right off. Hoshiko look curiously at the man, she could tell that it was by his voice. 'Wait…. Kabuto?' Hoshiko gave him a weird look but it went unnoticed.

"Well… I'm no one suspicious." The person noted. This was not part of the plan, but Shiko let it go and turned her attention back to the match. Naruto was panting rather heavily.

"Quit already. Continuing won't change a thing. I have no grudge against you." Neji stated to Naruto.

"S- Shut Up! Well I do!" Naruto shouted having slight trouble standing up.

"What do you mean?" Neji asked wait for Naruto to explain himself.

"Why… Why if you're this strong… Why with those eyes that can see everything… Did you mentally attack Hinata, who was trying so hard?" Naruto asked in between pants.

"That is none of your business." Neji stated his voice growing slightly angry and defensive.

"Insulting Hinata, automatically deciding she's a loser! Main family… Branch family… I don't know the hell happened… But pieces of shit like you who call other people losers… I will never forgive!" Naruto's voice grow till he shouted the last part of his explanation. Neji let out a soft chuckle.

"Alright, if you're going to go that far then I'll tell you… The Hyuuga's destiny of hatred." Naruto was listening intently now. "The Hyuuga main family has a special ninjutsu that's been passed down…" Neji went on to explain. "It's a cursed jutsu…" Naruto looked taken aback by this.

"A cursed jutsu?" He asked rather quietly.

"The curse of the mark represents 'A Bird In A Cage.' It is.. The symbol of being tied down to an inescapable destiny." Naruto watched with wide eyes as the young Hyuuga reached behind his head to untie the leaf village head band. Once he removed it Naruto's eyes along with Hoshiko's grew.

"Wh-what?" Naruto asked softly in disbelieve. "That mark is…"

"One day when I was four.. I had this horrible seal craved into my forehead through the cursed seal jutsu." Hoshiko reached behind one of her ears to touch the kanji for death. "That day, a grand ceremony was taking place in the leaf. A shinobi leader from the Cloud country, which head been warring with the leaf for many years, had arrived to sign an alliance treaty. But at this ceremony which everyone attended, from Jounin to genin, one clan was missing. That was the Hyuuga clan. Because that was the important day that the Hyuuga hair turned three." Naruto looked kind of confused about all of this. "Hinata-sama's third birthday." Neji turned his head to look up at his uncle. "My father, Hyuuga Hizashi, and Hinata-sama's father over there… Hyuuga Hiashi-sama, where twins. But Hinata-sama's father, Hiashi-sama was born to this world first. A member of the main family. And my father the second son, became a member of the branch family." Neji paused for a moment. He turned back to look at Naruto. "When the Hyuuga first daughter grew and became three.. I was turned into 'The Bird In The Cage,' through this curse. As a Hyuuga branch family member." Hoshiko's eyes softened now as she looked at the dark haired boy in the arena.

"Why… Is that necessary..?" Yelled Naruto. "Why do you need that weird mark to distinguish the main and branch families?" Naruto wondered aloud.

"This mark on my forehead is not simply a decoration." Neji paused again, Shiko could only guess that he was thinking back to when he first had gotten the mark. "This curse seal is the absolute fear of death given to the branch families by the main family. With a simple secret hand seal, the branch member's mind can easily destroyed.. Death is just as easy, of course. And this curse will only disappear after death. Sealing up the ability of the Byakugan along with it." Naruto looked shocked at the explanation that Neji had just given him. "The Hyuuga House is a clan that holds great advanced blood. Those that go after those secrets are incalculable… So with this jutsu, the branch family is allowed to live only to protect the main family. No disobedience is allowed by the main family. It's an effective system, created to eternally protect the advanced Byakugan Blood of the Hyuuga." Neji closed his eyes. "And… That incident occurred."
