Hinata: The Woman in The Mask

Chapter 1: Three Years Later…

Hidden behind a mysterious waterfall was a land opened only to those who wish to begin new. New lives where they can be at peace and enjoy life the way it is meant to be. People roamed the villages with no hate or grudges between them. Everyone acknowledged one another and very rarely disagreed with each other. Disputes have never gotten bad enough where people actually had to use violence. All arguments would end within minutes.

Not only was the communication between the villagers impeccably wonderful, but the land was also magnificently majestic. Outside of this wonderful place, legends were told. The most common one is this:

When your sadness reaches its toll,

And your heart is no longer whole,

Show her your will of fire,

And the gate shall open, to the Land of Desire

Not too long ago the gate was open to a young girl by the name of Hinata Hyuuga. The sadness caused by failure and family issues took its toll on her. Her heart was broken by the fact that she knew that the love of her life will never be hers. She escaped the confines of her house determined to begin a new life. She noticed these things about the young girl and the gate was opened to her.

"Hinata! Wake your behind up and get down here for breakfast!" shouted a voice.

A girl around the age of seventeen struggled to get herself out of tangled sheets. Once she was out, she opened her bedroom door and yelled, "Okay! I'll be down in a minute."

The girl ran into the bathroom and began to brush her hair down. As she brushed her hair in the mirror, and beautiful young woman stared back at her. She had the palest lavender eyes anyone has ever seen, long indigo hair the reached to the middle of her back, full lips with pinkish tint to them and flawless creamy skin.

"Well who knew that little ole' Hinata can turn out to look like this." she said to herself and chuckled slightly.

"Hinata! A minute is up!" the voice shout again.

Hinata sighed, "Alright here I come!"

When Hinata finally made it downstairs into the kitchen she was ambushed by a hungry blond.

While shaking Hinata roughly, the blond shouted, "HINATA WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU! IT'S YOUR TURN TO COOK AND I'M STARVING!"

Hinata managed to get out of the blonds hold and replied, "I'm sorry Kioko. I guess I overslept."

"Ahh don't pay her any mind Hinata it's not your turn anyways" a black haired, purple eyed woman said as she sat at the table.

"Shush Setsuko!" Kioko said trying to quiet the dark haired woman.

"Nope. Now as I was saying Hinata, she just wants to get out of cooking herself by making you think you slept in and kept everyone waiting."

Hinata look at Kioko and smiled.

"W-Why are you smiling at me Hinata? Aren't you mad?" Kioko asked.

"Nope but I got a surprise for you."

"What is it?" Kioko said suddenly getting happy.

Hinata did some hand seals and opened her eyes revealing her byakugan.

3,2,1..."Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh" A loud piercing scream spread through the okiya.

Setsuka rubbed her ears and yelled, "Damn it Kioko! Do you have to scream so damn loud!"

"Well its not my fault! She scared me!" Kioko said in her defense while pointing at a giggling Hinata.

"Well you deserved it for trying to get out of cooking today!"

"I didn't have time to cook because my favorite cartoon was on!"

"...What! You're twenty-two years-old and your still watching cartoons"

"So what! This was highly important because Patrick got his license before Spongebob! And who are you to talk! We're the same age and you still watch Jimmy Neutron!"

"That's different! Jimmy Neutron is a highly educated television show!"

"No..."

"Are you two at it again?" another woman questioned with bluish hair and brown eyes.

"Shut it Leiko!" Setsuko yelled as she crossed her arms over her chest.

Leiko growled, "Must you be so short tempered in the morning Setsuko! Why can't you be nice for once like me!"

" Must you be so damn arrogant in the morning!"

As Setsuko and Leiko continued to argue , yet another woman walked in and went over to where Hinata and the previously arguing Kioko stood.

"Soooo...how did this happen?" she asked.

" Long story Yoko." Kioko answered.

"Well igot time to kill since you're not cooking anything."

"Okay, okay. It started when..."

As Kioko informed Yoko on the mornings events Hinata began to get lost in her thoughts.

'Its's hard to believe that I've lived with these woman for the past three years. It's even harder to believe that they are sisters. Quadruplets to be exact! If I hadn't lived with them for so long I never would have guessed. But I can see the connection between te four of them.' Hinata took a moment to look at the sisters. Two of them were going at each others throats while the other two ignored them and had a quiet conversation.

'Well...I can sorta see it. Anyways I better start cooking before we all go hungry.' Hinata finished her thoughts with a giggle and began to cook with a smile of pure happiness on her face.

In the village hidden in the leaves a young man stop atop of the Hokage mountain. He was a handsome young man with bright blond hair, sapphire colored eyes and beautifully tanned skin. If you looked close enough you would notice the whisker marks on his face that have seemed to fade a little with age.

'It's been three years now and we still haven't found her. We've been all over the land of fire and we still haven't found her.' he thought.

"Where could she have gone?"

The young man stood there pondering over his thoughts when he interrupted by someone calling his name, "Naruto!"

Naruto turned to face the person that called him and immediately stopped his thoughts about the Hyuuga girl.

"Hey Sakura!" he shouted as he ran towards her, "Have you come to finally accept my offer for a date!"

"No stupid! I'm here because Lady Tsunade sent me! She said I could find you here since this is where you come to think." Sakura explained then turned her back to him and began walking back to the Hokage's office.

"Oh that's a poor excuse Sakura! Come on! You know you want me!"

"Naruto! Shut up!"

But Naruto didn't stop. He began singing, "You wanna love me, you wanna hold me, you wanna kiss me, you wanna..."

Naruto didn't get to finish his song because Sakura gave him a right hook sending him off the mountain.

Sakura growled, "Argh! I TOLD YOU TO SHUT UP!"

Poor Naruto didn't hear her as he laid unconscious twenty feet below her.

It's times like these he should be happy for the kyuubi's power.

"Hinata that was great!" Kioko shouted happily while her sisters nodded in agreement.

Hinata blushed and said, "Thank you."

"So Hinata," Leiko started, "do you think you're ready to make your debut this year?"

"Yeah you can't stay a maiko forever you know." Setsuko added.

'They're right. I have been putting it off for a long time now.' Hinata thought.

"Hinata you're really good. You've been practicing hard for the last three years now and you've been to enough of our shows to know how it's done. So what's the matter?" Yoko asked.

"I-I.."

'Oh no she stuttering. Something must be wrong.' the quadruplets thought in unison.

Hinata took a deep breath and sighed. "I just don't want to fail again."

This made Setsuko angry. "Are still hung up on what your pathetic excuse for a father use to tell you! Listen your father was wrong Hinata! You are not a failure okay!"

"She's right you know. Even if it didn't come out in the nicest tone." Yoko said while smiling.

"...Shut it Yoko."

Hinata looked at their encouraging faces and thought, 'They are right I'm not a failure.'

Hinata closed her eyes and smiled. "You know something, you guys have become the most important people in my life. You make me feel as if I'm apart of your family and I'm grateful for that."

"Geez Hinata, stop with the mushy stuff already." Setsuko said but you could tell she was joking

"You are apart of our family Hinata." Leiko added.

"Yep! You could say we're ummmm...quints..no no wait...quintuplets! Look at me I'm smart!" Kioko shouted.

Every giggled except for Setsuko who mummbled under her breath saying, "We cannnot be related."

"Anyways, what we're all saying Hinata is that no matter what, you will always be apart of us. Now you still haven't answered our question. Are you going to make your debut this year?"

Hinata thought about it one last time before saying, "Yes. This year, I'm going to become a full Geisha."
