Chapter 1:
Sesshomaru and Hinata
Hey, Sesshomaru.
Hello, Warashi-san.
Can you help me with something?
What is wrong?
I have crush on
.::Akuro has gone offline. ::.
Warashi-san?
Hinata stared at the computer screen, worried. Who did her friend have a crush on? Did they need help? Did the person they love die and they need help getting over them? What? What was it?
She stayed like that for a few more minutes before her eyes began to burn from not blinking for so long. She closed her eyes and shook her head slightly, before continuing on her path to forward the plot, and suddenly found herself chatting with another player, one named... Hibari Kyouya?
.::Hibari Kyouya has joined the chat. ::.
Hello, Hibari-san. Welcome to Chakra: Flames of Glory.
Herbivore. Where are the other herbivores.
By herbivores, do you mean other players?
No, I mean the other small, puny pigs. Yes, I am looking for 'other players', herbivore.
Please refrain from calling others pigs. Some of us have a very un-herbivorous reaction to things such as that.
I refuse. Now tell me, stupid herbivore, where are the other herbivores.
(*Sigh*) They're everywhere, you just cannot see them. Your sight must be off.
What the hell is a visibility. Are you pranking me, herbivore? I will bite you to death.
I'm sorry, Hibari-san, this is not a PvP. Only NPC's can fight players, but that is extremely rare. And I am not joking, look for a closed eyeball on the top left corner of your screen.
I see it. You better not be pranking me, herbivore, or else I will find a way to bite you to death outside of this box. Now tell me how to manage this eyeball.
Click on it.
What.
Click on the eyeball to open it, and you will be able to see other players. That is your sight.
I clicked on the eyeball, herbivore, and it opened. It is not a pleasing sight. The eyeball is following my pointer. Tell me how to close the eyeball, before I bite you to death after biting all of these obnoxious herbivores running around and crowding to death.
Click on the eyeball to close it.
Why do I still see you, herbivore.
Because I'm a NPC, and the game developers make all NPC's able to be seen, even if the eye is closed.
NPC's do not and can not chat in the chat box, because they are all robots and not living.
Mou, how hurtful. I suppose I am a bit of a robot, but I am very sure that I am living.
Then what are you, herbivore.
Didn't you just say it? I'm simply a herbivore, nothing more, nothing less
.::Sesshomaru has gone offline. ::.
GOD DAMN IT HERBIVORE
I AM GOING TO BITE YOU TO DEATH, HERBIVORE

Hinata giggled mischievously. Newbies were so fun to mess with. This was why she loved to play on her computer. There was nobody to judge her, no one trying to kiss up to her because of her status and her money. She could be rude and insult people, she could do whatever she liked, because no one knew she was Hinata Hyuuga, heir to the Hyuuga Corp and she was the one in control.
She loved it.
'Someone's behind us. Quick, window escape.'
"CRASH"
In the nick of time, Hinata managed to break through her window and drop into the bushes below. The alarms began to blare and the sound of footsteps echoes throughout the mansion. The person behind her cursed and jumped out of the window as well, however, had an unfortunate... accident.
"Crack"
Hinata winced, and averted her eyes from the bloody scene. She felt queasy, but kept it down.
"Hinata-sama! Hinata-sama, where are you?!"
Clearing her throat, she yelled back. "D-Down here!" 'Hurry up and help us out of this bush, we saw a dog piss on it. It was absolutely disgusting. Our legs hurt too. That was not safe at all. We need a medic, ASAP.'
Guards dressed in bullet-proof vests and helmets rushed towards her. " Hinata-sama, are you alright? Are you hurting anywhere?" Panicked, worried, panting masked people fussed over her as Hinata smiled shakily to try as she tried to calm them down, as calmly as she could, while taking the gloved hand of one guard, of whom helped her off the bush and escorted her back to her room, a few guards staying behind to clean up the mess on the grass.
Shaking slightly, Hinata closed her curtains and settled down on her bed, after grabbing a few manga from her bookshelf. She put her earphones in and began to play some songs as she read, giggling quietly when one of the characters did something funny and silently fuming when the enemy did something evil. As she read, the image of a mangled, broken body was pushed to the back of her mind for her Inner to deal with.
An hour passed, and Hinata finished her manga. She put away the manga, brushed her teeth, her hair, and changed into a polka dotted night gown before tucking herself into bed again and falling asleep. She tried to forget the bloody image of a mangled body in the grass and thought about Naruto instead.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
"Aughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." Hinata groaned into her pillow. Today was... Monday. Hinata's eye twitched. School. She buried her face into her pillow. But it also meant...
'Hehehe~ Na-ru-to-kun~!"
"Naruto-kun..."
Her legs moved on their own. She stood, stretching, before heading to her bathroom. She brushed her teeth, showered, and got dressed in her uniform. She brushed her hair after blow drying it, and, after looking around to make sure no one was watching her through the window, pulled out a small, cute shrine from inside a compartment built in the closet in the bathroom. On it, was a framed picture of her beloved. And a incense. And a pair of boxers, and Naruto's old goggles, and a piece of his hair. Oh, and some of the cologne Naruto uses.
Swiftly, she lights the incense, and puts her hands together before bowing her head in prayer.
'I pray that the pink bitch and the duck ass won't talk to our Naruto-kun so we can talk to him.'
'Naruto-kun... I pray that he notices me today...'
She picks up the framed picture, and hugs it gently to her chest, and rubs the fabric of the boxers between her fingers before sighing and pushing the shrine back into it's little compartment in the closet and leaves the mansion to walk to school. Hinata's father, to this very day, still urges her to ride the car to school, but she, to this very day, still refuses. If she rode the limo to school, it would attract too much attention, and Naruto would think she was a snotty, rude, arrogant rich girl that was full of herself and wouldn't like her at all, and that would ruin her chances of becoming Naruto-kun's friend and maybe even lover and-
Hinata sighs.
'We're here. Time to go find the blond boy for our daily Naruto-watching session. Hopefully, no one tries to make a move on our Naruto-kun's beautiful self. That would be too bad. And then, we would have to deal with them, and it's kind of hard to get blood out of these clothes.'
'I'm finally here. I hope Naruto-kun isn't getting bullied by the other students. I hate it when he's hurt. He always wears this fake smile, and it worries me.'
She gulps, and with the same, shaky, thin legs as before, she walks through the gates of Shippuden High School. Her pearly white eyes shined with shy determination.
