A/N: Before I continue I'd like to as always thank my readers (even the ones who do not review). My last chapter readers, I
thank you all. ProjXPsyClone, jamisa27, and Aki666. Thank you for the reviews.

Will not be shaken,
And jump into this,
And be persuasive, just carry on.
Make my mind up, to go though this,
Or be firm and sit in silence.

'Cause I want to fight,
I want to fight,
I want to prove I'm right.
I want to fight,
I want to fight,
So turn and forfeit.

Forfeit.

Inner Demons

Why was she even running now, where was it that she thought she would be able to hide in this world?

"Nothing."

There would be nothing left for her now, ever.

Everything.

It was all gone, all lost. No one would be able to love her, to touch her, to even look at a monster like her.

Should she find solace in the fact that they would never forget her?

"All though they'd like to" she whispered.

For the rest of her life she would forever be a murderer.

She found herself leaning against the side of a tree, a tree that was somewhere out in the world, somewhere she didn't even
know existed. All she could do was lean against that tree, the only living thing that would have her now. She sunk, lower and
lower until finally she hit the floor.

Her body ached, it felt as though there was a pain in her chest, but not just in her heart. Everything hurt and at the very same
time, nothing hurt at all.

She hurt and she was nothing.

Chapter Six - Reflection

A sea of plush grass lay under her, so soft to the touch. The grass tickled her skin as it swayed in the wind. It was as if god
himself had somehow made a mistake and let her into heaven.

The corners of her lips rose so slightly and she opened up her mouth.

"I can't be like this."

Reality fell from the sky and she jumped up to feel its harsh embrace.

Suddenly the ground began to shake and she knew her opponent would allow her no more rest.

'Why am I fighting back...'

"Because you have yet to accept that I will never leave you."

Screams echoed through out the forest. Grabbing her head she screamed more.

"L..leave m-me ALONE!"

She desperately wanted to grab a kunai from her supplies and drag it through her flesh, dig her heart out, carve a design
through her veins.

She'd tried many times during the day to end her life, however he refused to allow it.

What was worse; living a life of regret or not being able to end that life?

She could feel his life thriving within her, seeping into her very soul and all she could do was feel a power, a power that was not
her own crawl inside of her.

(Hinabi's point of view)

"How could that little brat do this?"

"The proper question to ask is how could she have done this?"

"...ungrateful"

"...pathetic"

"...disgusting"

Laying on her bed she still couldn't drain out the talk of her clan. Tightly clenching her fists was all she could do. Why did it
have to come to this?

She was born with a shadow covering her sister. She had excelled and shined. Her talent came naturally, her talent came from
her blood. Now however, she would live in her sister's shadow.

"I am now the heir but, I will never be the one they remember. They will forever remember the gentle woman they belittled and
turned into a demon."

She knew she should be understanding in some way. There should be some part of her that could make sense of all this. She
should love her sister but, she didn't. She refused to love that...

"Bitch."

She took everything from her and maybe she deserved it. She had taken their mother after all...With her life. But she had taken
more. Her father, her childhood, the little innocence she had left, her plans, and she took herself away from her.

Closing her eyes she slowly began to fall asleep.

"I hate you Hinata."

(Neji)

He felt so guilty. When had he ever truly feel guilt?

He was partially responsible for this, for her, the way things ended up.

"I was suppose to protect her."

Sitting in the middle of Hinata's once neat room he sighed.

How could he fix this? What purpose could he serve if not the one thing his father expected him to do.

"Father, I promise you that I will find Hinata. From here on out I will protect her with my life. I will find a way..."

A way to what?

Lifting his head he stared out the window.

'In life we reach several points where we just have to stop, and reflect.'

"But when we see the many reflections of ourselves, which will we choose?"

*****End Chapter Six*****

A/N: Okay! That wasn't exactly painless, but I think it helped me a lot to get that much out. Hopefully chapter seven will
come a lot easier. I'm thinking I may need a time skip. So chapter seven may have new characters introduced with chapter 8
being the time skip. Or I may even put them together. The characters and I shall find our direction together, sometimes in big
leaps, and sometimes in small steps.xD Thanks for the read. Sorry it wasn't much...

If anyone has any inspirational thoughts or comments then...

Please review and take care!~ ;3
