There was no one. That was a sign that things weren't going so well. Naruto and I just got back and when we were discussing how I was going to move to his place-because my dad rightfully owned mine. Well that's when we noticed that there was absolutely no one on sight. We rushed to his house and when we checked our cells and his messaging machines, there was nothing.
"Turn on the TV. Maybe there's something happening." I tell Naruto.
Once Naruto gets it on the news, we stand close, entranced.
"Hiashi, Hyuuga has declared war on humans just a moment ago." The reporter said.
They go in more detail and even play back the clip where her father did indeed declare war. It felt like I couldn't breathe, everything was just crumbling.
"My father can't declare war; he's just a wealthy business owner." I say because I'm hoping that it's just a dream.
"It's probably just where we live, just our country because you're right. He's no president. I got the world news so…"
He flips the channel real fast and I don't have to listen that long before I realize that we're the only country in a war. Other countries have decided not to join in. Only some countries are on the brink of war and the others are leaving these countries to deal with their problems. It goes on saying that if it gets out of control then they'll join in to stop it.
"So your dad is just speaking for the vampires in our country…"
I hear Naruto but I don't know what to say. We all had a feeling this was going to happen but now that it actually happened.
"So where is everybody?" He asks.
"My family is most likely at the household and…" I trailed off because I didn't know where my friends are.
"We need to find Kiba first."
Naruto flinched a little because I had just basically yelled in his ear.
"Calm down, sweetheart. The vampires are all probably at your mansion, so the humans are most likely holed up at another place like the vampires and you know Kiba is a human."
I shook my head vehemently.
"He's not a human?"
I shook my head again.
"Kiba's a vampire! That guy fooled me!"
I shake my head one last time, too busy thinking of were Kiba would go at a time like this.
"What is he then?"
I hear something in his voice, like he was afraid of what Kiba could be.
"Now don't think any less of him ok?"
Naruto nods his head slowly and when I take a deep breath to speak I'm interrupted by a hard knock and the sound of someone barging in. I barely blink before I'm pushed behind Narutos back. I thought I was the fast one. I can't see over Narutos shoulder and I can hear the footsteps coming faster.
"Naruto please, get behind me I'm the vampire."
"Hush sweetie, I will always protect you."
I was going to use my force to push him behind me but the pain in my head came back in full force. My vision starts to blur up until I can't see at all and I whimper in pain.
"Hinata?" I hear Naruto but I'm in too much pain to respond.
"Hinata!" Kiba? My last thought before I blacked out.
"Ah, you finally woke up,"
I blinked and my eye sight focused on Shikamaru- standing over me. I blink a few more times and register that I'm in the hospital now.
"Dr. Where's Naruto? Oh and Kiba?" I asked. I was freaking out because what if something happened to him? I can't imagine that Naruto would willingly leave me alone, to wake up without him.
"Your husband is fine, he was worried and beating himself up for not seeing the signs. He was taking it out on Kiba who was egging him on for a fight, so I sent them both to the waiting room."
I played the whole scene out and sighed in disappointment, at least Kiba is still alive.
"Wait, how'd you know Naruto is my husband?"
Shikamaru sighed and shook his head, like it was troublesome to even explain it.
"You both have the rings and Naruto kept repeating 'my wife' over and over." He paused, and then looked at the door, "I should let them back in or at least your husband. He'll want to be here with you." And he left it at that.
I was about to ask him what he found out about me because he did sound serious but he stepped out before I could.
"Hinata honey! I'm sorry, it's Kiba's fault!" Naruto yelled while rushing to me.
"What? You wouldn't shut up!" Kiba growled while walking inside the room.
"She just woke up guys, Please be considerate." Shikamaru said, following behind them, closing the door gently.
It got quiet as both boys blushed and said sorry in a hushed whisper.
"Hinata, why didn't you tell me about these pains? Shikamaru said that just recently you came to see him for it." He looked sad and I was the cause of this. I still glared at the Doctor.
"He's your husband, couldn't keep information from him… Also he and Kiba threatened me." He shrugged, "Easier to just tell them."
I nod in understanding, "Naruto I'm sorry…"
"I don't want it to happen again," He said desperately, "We're connected and while you were in this sleep, I couldn't feel you anymore. I felt alone and isolated and you weren't dead. What's going to happen to the other when one of us dies?"
He started crying and I lifted my arms up in a hug, which he gladly accepted, crying into my shoulder.
"I don't know what will happen but we don't have to worry about that right now. Neither one of us will die for a long time."
He nods and I can't help but smile. It gets quiet and I turn to hear Shikamaru cough, wanting my attention and Kiba was grinning like a fool.
"I found out what's bothering you Hinata." He walks over to me, "It was hidden and kind of small the first time I saw you but now…"
I was eagerly waiting for him to go on but from the looks of things he was taking his time, trying to find the right words.
"C'mon man!" Kiba yelled.
"Shut up Kiba!" I and Naruto both yelled.
The doctor took a few more useless steps before walking back to me.
"I'm just going to get straight to the point, ok?" I nodded, because he seemed like he needed me to acknowledge him before he went on. "You're slowly dying Hinata."
A storm erupted. Naruto and Kiba both blew up. Yelling and screaming at Shikamaru, each other and even themselves. They didn't want to accept it. I didn't want to accept it.
I waited for a minute before I spoke with enough force to be heard. "Please explain, Shikamaru."
The yelling stopped and all 3 men came back over to me. Naruto came to my side, grabbing my hand and squeezing it hard. I looked at him, his eyes were wet. I took a deep breath and looked at the Dr.
"Please explain," I repeat.
"When you first came to see me I couldn't see it because it was small and hiding but today after looking at the results I see it." He takes a deep breath, and then keeps going, "It's rare and it's only been happening to vampires recently. Was one of your parents a human or ever a human?"
"Uh, not that I know of." I can't ever see my dad being a human so if one of them was it would've been my mother.
"One of them was at a point in their life. You see it's only been happening recently to vampires because now they are dating humans. Back then it was bad for a vampire to be with a human but now it's not so much."
"Ok so what exactly is happening to me?" I question. I am also getting frustrated that my dad was with a human.
"Well tests show that you were conceived while they were still human so what's happening to you is that you have normal human blood and vampire blood running through your system. That hasn't been a problem for you before but now that you've hit the adult stages of your life it's like the two bloods are fighting, they don't react well with each other and if this keeps up eventually you will be killed by it."
"So what can she do to stop it?" Kiba asks.
"Obviously the vampire blood in your system can't take out the human blood so the only thing you could do would be taking the cure. My antidote turns the vampire blood to normal human blood."
I sit and think this through. With the war going on, I can't afford to do that.
"Get it Shikamaru, She'll be taking it." Naruto said.
"NO! I don't want it!" I scream and holler.
All three boys jump and are shocked.
"Sweetie you have to take it." Naruto said, leaving no room for argument.
"I don't want it and I swear if you make me I will resent you." I say through clenched teeth. I regret saying that because Naruto has the worst face you could see anyone have. I have broken him.
"Hinata, you heard the doctor, you will DIE if you don't take this." Kiba says in a soft tone.
"I can't take it. Not right now."
"Then when, sweetie?"
"After the war. Then I can do it." I tell them.
"You don't know how long this war will take Hinata" Shikamaru informs me.
I just nod my head because they just don't understand. I see Naruto look at me intently trying to read me and I block him out, which he feels and again his face is hard for me to look at.
"Well I have other patients to see, since you don't want the cure I'll be going now." And with that Shikamaru leaves.
No one speaks but I know that they both want to say something to me.
"Don't worry guys; I know what I'm doing." I say because I don't know how to mention why I'm doing what I'm doing.
"Be quiet. You have to take this cure right now." Narutos menacing tone started to make me get mad.
"I don't want to and I don't have to." I just wish he would drop it for right now.
"You're going to die if you don't!"
"Stop taking that tone with me Naruto!"
We both stopped talking and just held each other some more, which was uncomfortable since I'm lying down on the bed still.
"You're not going to die." Kiba says from the other side of the room.
I forgot Kiba was even here but at his statement I smiled at him. What an optimistic guy. Naruto however, shot a death glare at Kiba.
"Don't say that. Then she'll actually start believing that and won't even think she has the possibility of dying." Naruto tells Kiba in a normal voice but you can hear the threat in his tone.
"But she can't die because she's the main character in the story."
"What story?" Naruto asks incredulously.
"This love story you two have created and the story hasn't ended yet so she can't die, neither can you Naruto." Kiba said it so naturally that I actually wanted to think like that.
"That is the most stupid thing you've ever said!" Naruto yelled.
I expected Kiba to start yelling back at Naruto like he usually does but he didn't. He just nodded and listened to Naruto ranting on and on.
"But now that I've said that, it won't happen and one of you will die…or maybe both of you will die…but now that I've said THAT it won't happen." Kiba said once Naruto finished but once Naruto heard Kiba say this he started on his yelling rant once more.
Again I thought Kiba would start yelling back but he didn't, he kept shaking his head and mumbling about how our story will end.
"Ok well back to reality guys," I say, "I have to go see my dad really fast."
"First you take the cure." Naruto tells me again.
"Naruto freaking drop that already! She doesn't want to take it right now!" Kiba yells.
I grip Narutos hand hard so he won't burst out yelling again because the headache in my head is starting to come back because of it. It worked; Naruto just took in a deep breath and turned back to me.
"Ok so we'll go see your dad. I didn't really want to meet him, especially since I'm human and he hates me…but it's what you want so let's go."
"About that, honey… You can't go with me." I mumbled it but he heard me.
"What!"
I stand up from my bed, "You're right, my dad won't listen to me if you're there. He'll hate you on sight, and then he'll know about us and won't listen to me."
"Hinata, there is a war going on! I can't let you journey on your own." Naruto told me.
"Well I'm a neutral party so I can go with you Hinata." Kiba suggests.
"Oh yeah because you're a werewolf." Naruto says nonchalantly.
"When did you find that out?" I asked, thinking that I never got to mention it before I passed out.
He shrugged, "Kiba told me when we were in the waiting room."
"Yeah he freaked out like a little baby when I told him." Kiba laughs.
"No I didn't!" Naruto pouts and I can feel the seriousness that we were just talking about disappear but me being me I had to get back to reality.
"Oh Kiba, thanks but I'd rather go alone."
Both boys shake their heads at me.
"If I'm not allowed to go with you then you at least have to have Kiba join you." Naruto ordered and Kiba whole heartedly agreed.
"Fine but where will you be Naruto?" I ask. I also accepted his order because time was being wasted and I could actually see the sky getting just a little darker.
"I guess I'll make fun calls to friends, go get my dad and wait for you at home?" He doesn't really know what to do that would be helpful for the cause.
"Ok, it shouldn't take long to talk to my dad and settle things. Then I'll go home and call me if anything happens, ok?"
He nods and kisses me. I go change out of the hospital robe and leave with Kiba and Naruto. Before me and Kiba change direction for my dad's house I give Naruto a sweet lingering kiss which Kiba felt he had to gag at.
"Shut up Kiba. You better protect her for me."
"Of course I will, I love her."
Naruto nodded, "Don't try to take her away from me or I'll have to hurt you."
"Can't make any promises." Kiba said while laughing.
"I'm still right here you two. Don't worry Naruto, I will always choose you over Kiba."
"Hey!"
We all laugh and Naruto waves me and Kiba off. The streets are still eerily quiet. It doesn't take us long before we finally reach my house. Other than there being more guards than usual the place on the outside looked the same but on the inside it was totally different. The place was packed with vampires, all the guest bedrooms were full and packed and every vampire gave Kiba a disgusting look once they got a smell of him.
"This place seems really friendly." Kiba jokes.
I signal for him to be quiet and go to see my sister first, only to find my sister's room packed with even more vampires and my sister nowhere in sight. I don't panic because my dad would never let anything happen to her and start heading to his main office. I barely knock once before my dad yells the right for me to enter. Upon coming in with Kiba I see my dad sitting at his desk with Neji across from him.
"Hey Hinata, it's great to see that your sickness has passed." My dad tells me. At this point in my life I don't think I should still be sad that he still doesn't call me his daughter but it did still hurt me.
"Yes, thank you for asking," Not being formal with him would cost you, "I went to see Hanabi but she wasn't there."
"My daughter is getting ready to move to the front of the line so she can heal people right when they get wounded." He says.
I hear Kiba growl a little and my dad gives him a look.
"You're lucky you're not a human sir, or you wouldn't be breathing right now."
I understood why Kiba growled, my dad was deliberately throwing it in my face that he doesn't count me as his daughter very much.
"Hanabi shouldn't be right there in the battle." I would have yelled it but I don't have that much courage when it comes to my dad.
"It doesn't matter she will be right there. Now either you be useful and do something or leave."
Neji looked like he was about to jump in but I shook my head at him.
"Dad I actually came here to talk to you about something." I say.
"Well it'll have to wait because me and Neji here are having a serious conversation."
"It can wait for Hinata." Neji tells my dad, coming up to stand next to me and I can't help but love my cousin for being there for me.
Dad gives Neji a glare and I can't help but feel sorry for Neji later when he's alone with him.
"Ok Hinata, what did you want to talk about?" He finally asks me.
"Well, was my mom a human?"
"You know I can't be with a human. Only the side branches may be with a human…well as long as they turn them into a vampire if they should choose to marry. You know this Hinata; if your mother was a human she would have had to turn you into a vampire when you were born. Hanabi was born a vampire wasn't she?"
I knew he was right. Hinata was born a vampire. When you have a baby it could only be a vampire if both parents were one. But my mom could have been turned after she gave birth to me and then turned me right after.
"Now that we're through with that, Neji send more troops to battle. I want this war won and over by tomorrow, got it?"
Neji nods his head but doesn't move from his spot. I'm too stunned at how I was brushed easily aside to say anything else.
"Exactly where is the fighting? The streets have been empty ever since I got back." I ask because I feel like I'll start yelling at him if I don't start thinking about other things.
"Got back?" My dad questions, "You mean healed from your sickness."
I don't even agree with his statement before he decides that he must be right.
"If you must know it's all happening near the Uchiha's mansion. That's where the humans are holding up."
"But Sasuke's a vampire!" I can't see that cold heartless man helping numerous humans.
"Yes, but he has started having relations with some crazy pink haired human." He says in an agitated disgusted voice.
"He means Sakura who was hired awhile back in our company." Neji explained but he didn't have to because I had met her before.
"That's good, it means he loves her." I say not really thinking of my words before I said them out loud.
"Love! It's a silly weak emotion."
We all don't look at my dad when he says this or after when he's waiting for our response. He grabs a bottle and pours himself a drink while I'm figuring out a way to mention that I know my mother was a human.
"Is that an engagement ring I see?" He mentions while glaring at my hand.
Kiba and I go deathly still and while Neji has also gone still, he is shocked also and takes a quick look at my hand.
"I don't see a ring on your friend here." He says after some time has passed in awkward silence.
"That's because he's not my husband." I tell him.
"Who is your husband? Or better yet, what exactly is your husband?"
I know I have to answer him before he loses his patience but now I had information he wanted.
"I'll tell you what you want to know when you start telling me the truth about my mother." I show a straight face not wanting him to see a weak spot.
I also feel a wave of proudness emitting from Kiba and Neji.
"Tell me what I want to know before it's too late Hinata." My dad said in a killing voice.
"Dad, I know my mother was a human when I was conceived. Tests I had the Doctor take prove it."
"Get out! All of you get out!"
We don't try to argue back with him and just leave in a rush instead. We stand there looking at each other before Hanabi comes running down the hall to us.
"Sister!" We run and hug each other.
"I have missed you Hinata." She cries out.
"Me too."
I set her down and she starts to head into dad's office, needing to tell him about something before she leaves.
"Don't go in there, he's mad." Neji grabs her shoulder keeping her from reaching the door, "Give him some time to cool down."
I nod my head, agreeing with Neji, before I grab my sister and turn her towards me.
"Hanabi, what was with that text you sent me? Is something wrong?" I ask.
"At first things were bad. Dad was going crazy about this war but now I don't mind that much. I'm sorry to scare you like that."
I look into her eyes while she speaks and there is some truth to what she's saying but I also see the hint of sadness in her. But before I can question anymore, Neji interrupts and makes a suggestion.
"Whatever answers you two were looking for, you won't be getting them today. So I suggest you go and come back later."
Kiba and I both nod in agreement and start for the door. Hanabi says goodbye and leaves, saying she's got important stuff to gather before she goes tomorrow. I can't help but tear up, watching her walk away but I'm comforted by Kiba and Neji-who offered to walk us out.
"So that went well." Kiba says out loud.
Neji and I snort, then we're all laughing and it surprises me to see Neji like this so carefree and happy. Tenten has definitely been what he needed in his life. We say are goodbyes to Neji at the gate and we start walking to our homes. We barely take any steps before we hear a gunshot go off in our direction. The Hyuuga gates slam open and vampires storm out. From far away I could see a group of humans running away and all the vampires blur past us to chase them.
"That was-" I realize Kiba isn't next to me standing but on the ground in pain.
"KIBA!" I drop down to him.
He coughs hard which hurts him even more and I can see blood coming from his stomach. Even without being in the medical field I know that he's losing too much blood to survive any longer.
"Don't worry, help will be coming. Hanabi will be here soon. Not that many vampires left to chase those humans. There's help nearby."
I turn around wondering what's taking Hanabi and Neji so long but I see what it is. My dad's standing at the gate holding both my cousin and sister from coming to us.
"Even with me almost dead I can see your dad holding them back. No help is coming… I never thought a human would kill me." He laughs like it was a big joke.
"Kiba you're not going to die!" I cradle his head in my lap, I can't stop the tears from falling and I know that there's not that much time.
He lifts his hand up to wipe my tears away, "Hey don't cry, you've saved me once before and once was enough from you sweet angel."
I can't help but laugh at his good mood in this not so good situation. I hear a scream behind me and when I look up I see Neji pushing my dad aside and him and Hanabi coming towards us.
"Do what you need to do ok?" he says. I nod my head at him before he laughs and speaks again "Protect Naruto, he doesn't really think things through before he jumps, you know?" He laughs some more before he coughs and slowly closes his eyes.
I sit there crying and cradling his body when Neji and Hanabi finally reach us. Neji pulls him away from me so Hanabi can have a look at him.
"What is it Hanabi? Is he going to be ok?" Neji asks.
She pulls away from him slowly, shaking her head at us.
"He's dead."
