Chapter 4: Hinata's Feelings
Hinata stood in a black room confused. That was when two lights shined. Hinata saw it was her father and her younger sister.
"Hello father, Hanabi." Said Hinata.
"How dare you!" yelled Hinata's father, "How dare you take the form of my daughter!"
"What?" asked Hinata, "But I am Hinata."
"No you're not! You're a monster and you need to die!" yelled her father.
Her father was about to hit Hinata's hand.
However she woke up from her dream.
"That dream again." She said.
That was a dream she sometimes had… well sometimes it was a dream, sometimes as it was right then a nightmare. It depended on when she woke up.
She left her room and saw that the sun was just rising.
She decided to leave the Forest Fairy and do some exercises on the beach.
As she was she saw Ronaldo trying to sneak onto the Forest Fairy.
"Hi…" said Ronaldo staring at her.
"Hello…" said Hinata.
The two looked at each other.
"I'm sorry." Said Hinata.
"For what?" asked Ronaldo.
Hinata ran and grabbed a broom that next to the Forest Fairy.
"Shoo! Shoo! Get away!" said Hinata.
Once he was gone, Hinata figured she should do some exercises on the ocean.
Inside the house Steven got up and looked out hoping that someone was outside doing training.
He gave a big smile. He saw Hinata standing on the ocean, he got dressed and ran outside.
"Morning Hinata!" said Steven.
"Oh good morning Steven." Said Hinata noticing him.
He ran down to the water line.
"I know I saw it already but that is so cool you can do that," said Steven, "Why can't you teach me again?"
"Because humans on this planet don't have devolved chakra systems." Giggled Hinata.
"What's Chakra again?" asked Steven.
"It's the combination of physical energy and spiritual energy, many people on my planet learned how to use." Said Hinata, "But not everyone can use it it's like Magic on Mira's planet."
Steven began pouting.
"Sorry." Said Hinata.
They heard giggling and both of them noticed it was Mirajane and Nami.
"You want me to make breakfast again?" asked Mirajane.
"Sure!" said Steven.
They went up the house where Mirajane start to make French toast.
Soon enough Amethyst joined them after smelling it.
"French toast! French toast!" chanted Amethyst with Steven joining in.
Soon enough Pearl and Garnet came through the doors.
"Is this going to be a regular thing?" asked Pearl.
"We don't have a kitchen right now." Mirajane.
"Besides she's a really good cook." Said Steven.
"Yeah! She's better than NHOW." Said Amethyst.
By the way NHOW stood for National House of Waffles.
As all but Garnet and Pearl were eating. Amethyst decided to ask the question again since it had been a few days.
"Are you sure the reason you won't go home is because your friends won't like what happened to you."
This of course earned the glare from Nami and Mirajane.
Amethyst began to scoot away, especially after getting to know Mirajane that glare just didn't match her personality.
"That's enough." Said Garnet.
"Sorry but it's just that they wouldn't treat us like that." Said Mirajane.
"How do you think they're react then." Said Amethyst.
"I sure this is how things will go with Luffy and the rest of the crew." Said Nami.
(Nami's scenario)
"Wait so you were kidnapped by aliens and they turned you into one of them." Said Luffy.
"Yes." Sighed Nami.
His eye began to sparkle.
"THAT IS SO AWESOME!" yelled Luffy, "Do you have any weird new alien powers and stuff like that!"
"Wait!" yelled Usopp the crew's sharp shooter (and the person who built Nami's oriental weapon), "How do we know you're not an alien imposter!"
"Zoro!" said Nami.
"What!" yelled Zoro (the crew's swordsman).
"I'm calling back your debt from Loguetown!" yelled Nami.
"What! But I paid that off when we saved Alabasta!" yelled Zoro.
"I never really called it off." Said Nami, "I never got that money from Vivi after all. Besides I really need the money right now…"
"For what!" yelled Zoro.
"I have my reasons." Said Nami sticking her tongue out.
There was an awkward silence among the small pirates crew.
"It's Nami." Said Usopp.
"You shouldn't have doubted her!" yelled Sanji (the crew's womanizing cook) starting to beat him up.
(End of Scenario)
"You would seriously call in a debt just to prove it's you." Said Pearl staring at the orange gem.
"If it's the only way." Said Nami with an evil grin.
"What about you?" asked Amethyst.
"Well…" said Mirajane.
(Mirajane's scenario)
Mirajane walked into the guiled. Everything went silent as they saw her.
"Mira?" asked Lisanna (Mirajane's younger sister).
"I'm back…" said Mirajane.
"What happened to you?" asked Elfman, "Why are you so pale?"
"It's a long story." Said Mirajane.
One explanation later…
"I'm so glad you back!" cried Lisanna hugging her.
"I have my big sister back!" yelled Elfman.
"All right!" called out Makarov the master of the guild, "Let's celebrate the return of our lost child!"
The rest of the guild cheered and a great party started.
(End of Scenario)
"Why does it sound like you're leaving things out?" asked Steven.
"Okay you caught me," said Mirajane, "But it's not that important just someone sniffing to see if I'm really myself and then later he tries to test my new abilities and it leads to another guild wide brawl."
"Sniffing you?" asked Amethyst.
"Another guild wide brawl?" asked Pearl.
"Oh yeah, it happens sometimes." Said Mirajane, "It was fun, I miss them."
"Hinata." Said Steven.
"Yeah?" asked Hinata.
"Why don't you get mad when Amethyst says that?" asked Steven.
Hinata froze.
"No reason." Said Hinata.
She fined up her breakfast.
"I'm going out for a walk." She said.
She left the beach out to go out on a walk.
"Geez, what was that about?" asked Amethyst.
"Hinata never had the best relationship with her family." Said Mirajane, "We don't know all the details, but she rarely talks about them expect for her cousin."
"Really?" asked Steven.
"Yeah." Said Nami.
"She'll be fine." Said Mirajane.
Sometime later after Hinata walk she got back to the beach house to fine Nami, Mirajane and Amethyst playing "Citchen Calamity" with Steven.
"What are you doing?" asked Hinata.
"Playing Citchen Calamity." Said Steven, "It's Nami's turn."
Nami did her turn and picked p a card "Your bacon sundae was gristle free…"
"Oh lucky that means you get an extra turn." Explained Steven.
"Are bacon sundaes a real thing?" asked Nami slightly disgusted.
"Oh yeah, they're really good." Said Amethyst.
That was when Pearl and Garnet showed up.
"We have a mission." Said Garnet.
"So who's going?" asked Amethyst.
"Well we should teach you three how to bubble gems." Said Pearl.
"That's it?" asked Nami.
"Oh come on, you three can handle fighting, what with the Living Gem Destabilizer over there." Said Amethyst.
Hinata sighed when she said that.
"Amethyst." Scolded Midrange she then whispered "That's what some of the Homeworld Gems called her during out breakout."
Amethyst blushed and said this, "Sorry didn't know."
"It's all right." Said Hinata.
"How about the three of us go and you can continue your game." Said Pearl.
"Can I come too." Said Steven, "My baking soda came with the house so I lost 5 turns."
Pearl stared at Steven, "I still don't get this game." She mumbled.
The four of them left. When they were gone, Nami pulled out the rules.
"Great Steven left." Said Amethyst, " I don't know how to play the game with out him."
"Hold on." Said Nami pulling out the rules.
Mirajane looked at the rules along with Nami.
"This is a kids game?" she asked.
Meanwhile the four warped to a jungle.
"Byakugan!" said Hinata activating her eyes.
"are you able to see it yet?" asked Garnet.
"Not yet." Said Hinata, "Wait it's coming and it's coming fast…"
That was when they were swopped on by a legged spider with four wings similar to a dragonfly.
"It's a giant flying spider!" yelled Steven who just realized something, "But can it swing from a thread?"
That was when it sprayed spider web at them. Garnet managed to grab him before he could get hit.
"I think the answer is yes." Said Garnet.
"We have to stop it from flying." Said Pearl.
That was when Hinata summoned many kunai and threw it at the wings, cutting them.
The flying Spider began to lose altitude once it was low enough Garnet summoned her gauntlets, jumped on top of it and punched it into the ground.
"Hinata now!" said Garnet.
"All right! I see it!" said Hinata.
She slammed the spider's abdomen and it disappeared leaving only a crystal.
"Steven." Said Garnet, "How about you teach her how to bubble it."
"All right!" said Steven.
He began to teach her how to bubble the Gem. It took a few minutes but she managed to get it in a stable bubble (which was a very light shade of lavender).
"Let's go back." Said Pearl.
Steven nodded and they headed back to the Temple to find the three still looking at the rules.
"You haven't done your turns?" asked Steven.
"Sorry… it's just that I can't seem to follow this game." Said Nami.
"It's okay, Pearl still doesn't understand it either." Said Steven causing Pearl to blush.
"When we're done do you want to join in?" asked Steven.
"No thanks." Said Garnet leaving to her room.
"Maybe another time." Said Pearl.
"I was planning to do some chakra training on the beach." Said Hinata.
Hinata left to the beach while the four of them continued their game.
Sometime later...
"All right! I got the red beans!" said Mirajane, "And combined with the ground beef and peppers I can now make chili!"
"That means you get to ring the dinner bell!" said Steven.
Mirajane rang the bell.
"So…" said Mirajane.
"That means you win and you managed to make things right in the kitchen." Explained Steven.
"This game has too many ways to win. "said Nami.
"Do you guys want to play another game?" asked Steven.
"Sounds good to me!" said Mirajane., "What other games do you have?"
Nami and Mirajane joined in Steven in looking at the other games.
Nami picked up "Polypoly"
"A game of land ownership and money." Said Nami, "Let's play this one!"
"I don't know." Said Mirajane.
"Come on it will be fun." Said Steven, "Plus the game lasts for a while so I don't think anything could go wrong."
15 Minutes later…
"How can I be bankrupted already!" yelled Steven giving Nami the last of her money.
"Sorry Steven but just the way it goes." Said Nami sticking her tongue out.
Steven left the beach house to pout.
"I tired to warn him." Sighed Mirajane.
Nami looked at Mirajane and Amethyst and began to laugh evilly.
On the beach Steven saw that Hinata was training with the water, making various shape with it.
What Steven didn't know was that Hinata thought back to her dream from the night before and the shape of the water turned into her father.
She forced her palm to the water version of her father, which resulted in a large water explosion.
'Hinata?" asked Steven.
Hinata turned and saw Steven.
"What…" said Steven.
"I made it look my father." She quickly explained.
"You want to talk about it." Said Steven.
"Okay." Sighed Hinata.
The two of them sat on the beach.
"Sometimes I have a dream." Said Hinata, "Well sometimes it's a dream, sometimes it's a nightmare."
"How can it be both?" asked Steven.
"It starts out with my father and sister appearing. My sister always says nothing, but my father calls me a monster."
Steven was shocked.
"And then he tries to kill me." Said Hinata.
"How can that be a dream!" said Steven ,"It sounds like a nightmare."
"If it stops right there, then it's a nightmare." Said Hinata, "But if doesn't it always goes on the same way."
(Hinata's dream)
Hinata's father was about to strike. That was when a kunai hit his hand.
"Who's there!" yelled Hinata's father.
"You really think I'm going to let you kill Hinata?" asked a voice.
Hinata turned around and smiled.
It was a blonde teen wearing a long back coat, underneath was an orange jumpsuit.
"Naruto!" cried out Hinata.
(Cut out of dream)
"Naruto?" asked Steven.
Hinata nodded and blushed.
"He's just someone special to me." She said.
(Back to Dream)
"Why you…" muttered Hinata's father.
"How dare you call her a monster!" yelled Naruto, "She my friend and I'm going to make you pay."
That was when other people began to appear.
First was her team mate Kiba and his very large dog Akamaru.
"What the hell! Hiashi!" yelled Kiba, "She's still the same Hinata."
Then it was her other team mate Shino.
"He's right." Said Shino who was man of few words.
That was when her cousin Neji appeared.
"What kind of father does that to her." Muttered Neji, "I thought you changed after the Chunin exam."
That was when her Jonin teach Kurenai appeared and glared harshly.
"He's right, you haven't change at all." Said Kurenai, "You still think she's weak don't you."
Hinata's father (now known at Hiashi) began to shake.
"IF you're going to stand up for this monster! Then I'll have to kill you all!" yelled Hiashi.
That was when a pair of masked Ninja appeared and placed swords at his neck.
"Hiashi that's enough!" yelled a woman with blond hair, she was Tsunade, the Hokage.
(Back to Explanation)
"Hokage?" asked Steven.
"The leader of my village." Said Hinata.
(Back to the Dream)
"This is all a misunderstanding!" yelled Hiashi.
"I saw you try to kill her!" said Tsunade, "Don't try to deny it."
The masked ninja began to lead away Hiashi.
Hinata began to tear up.
"Don't worry Hinata! We'll all right here for you." Said Naruto giving her a half hug.
She turned to see more of friends had appeared.
"Thank you so much!" cried Hinata.
(End of Dream)
"I'm sure if that's really how my father would react." Said Hinata, "But I know for a fact that is what Naruto would do."
"Really?" asked Steven.
"Growing up Naruto had no one, in fact I often heard people call me him a monster. I don't know why." Said Hinata she began to blush a lot, "But no matter what happens he would just get back up."
Steven looked at Hinata's blushing.
"You liked him didn't you?" asked Steven.
Hinata blushed even more and began to fiddle with her fingers.
After a minute she stopped blushing.
"You remind me of him." Said Hinata.
"What?" asked Steven.
"You remind me of Naruto." Said Hinata.
"He sounds like a cool guy." Said Steven.
"Yeah." Said Hinata.
There two sat in silence for another minute.
"so do you think that is what will happen?" asked Steven.
"I doubt it…" said Hinata, "But I can't help like feeling that's what he'll see me as…"
Steven looked at her.
"But I know that if that does happen, my friends will help." Said Hinata.
Steven nodded, "Are there any story about you and Naruto?"
"Well there's a couple… but most of the missions we ended up together ended up failing."
"It's okay." Said Steven, "Also I don't want to go back in there… Nami's evil when it comes to Polypoly."
"Money game?" asked Hinata.
Steven nodded.
"Well one of the missions involved a beetle…" said Hinata who began to tell him the story that mission.
And so Hinata told him about that particular failed mission. While it was one that was a failure it was one of her favorites.
While Hinata knew that perhaps her fears were unfounded about her family's reaction, she knew that if she ever make it back home, no matter what would happen, Naruto would help her. Because that was the type person he was.
