Today had not been a great day for Hiashi. He had woken up, early as usual, to complaints from the elders about the branch family members getting uppity and refusing to do their menial tasks. If that alone had not been enough, Hinata had again passed out in the middle of the village for no discernable reason. Of course that last problem was fast becoming routine. The only branch member that he could have sent to retrieve her, was Neji and as disappointed as he may be in Hinata, he wasn't totally ignorant of the disaster in the making that would be.
So doing what was the most dramatic thing he could do at the time, short of shanking Ko, he swiftly rose from his desk. Hiding the fact that his left leg was asleep quite deftly, and with his robes swishing around him strode out of the Hyuuga compound. Like a boss.
'Perfect exit as usual' he thought to himself. He proceeded to walk down the streets of Konoha, leaving stunned (Due to his devilishly handsome good looks.) ninja and villagers in his wake.
"Now I need to pick up Failnata and deposit her in her room." He muttered to himself. Knowing the village as well as he did, it was of no surprise when he decided to cut through an alley that would lead him to the hospital much faster then if he had taken the main streets.
"Put your hands in the air and don't move!" A voice behind him whispered harshly.
He felt something sharp poke into his back, a kunai he thought, as he silently activated his Byakugan. He immediately saw two men behind him, with weapons drawn, hoping to mug him it would seem.
"Are⦠are you by any chance holding me up by kunai point?" Hiashi asked, as a smirk slowly made its way onto his usually stoic face.
"Yeah! And if you know what's good for you," he accentuated his spiel with light pokes from the Kunai, "you'll hand over your money! And don't try no heroics either tough guy!"
"I see, well then! I regret to inform you that I am Hyuuga Hiashi, and one of you two rogues will be spending the next month in a hospital!" Spoke Hiashi, his voice going from a faint whisper to a muted roar.
He struck out quick as lightning; assaulting the man who held the kunai to him with a precise series of Jyuuken strikes. The thug quickly dropped to the ground. His compatriot seeing this, and realizing exactly who they were up against immediately dropped to the ground and begged for mercy.
Hiashi, deciding to be dramatic about the whole affair forgave the man, but not before stealing both of his assailants valuables.
"Let this be a lesson to you of the futility of attacking the Hyuuga clan!" With that Hiashi left, heading home towards the Hyuuga compound. However, he could not quite shake the feeling that he had forgotten something.
"It must not be that important if I can't remember it!"
A/N: Well here is chapter 2 of The Hyuuga man; I hope you all enjoy it. This chapter is partly based on real events. I don't really have anything to say at the moment except stay tuned for chapter three. Neji makes his debut! Also there may be a cameo from a wooden man!
