It was a bright and beautiful day in the Hidden Leaf Village, and Hinata woke up feeling strangely unsettled. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but something felt different. As she got up from
her bed and looked out the window, she noticed that the sunlight seemed to dance in a way she had never seen before.
"Hinata, are you alright? Odyn's deep voice rumbled from the doorway, causing her to jump slightly.
She turned to see her husband standing there, his blue hair shining in the morning light, his flame-eyed gaze filled with concern.
I...I had another dream, she whispered, still feeling the lingering effects of the vision that had haunted her sleep.
Odyn's expression hardened slightly as he stepped closer, his hand resting gently on her shoulder.
"Tell me, my love. What did you see this time?", He asked concerned for his wife.
Hinata took a deep breath and recounted the details of her dream, of the day when the Konoha would learn of their marriage and the children born of their union. She spoke of Hanabi's joy at becoming an aunt,
of Naruto's surprise and Sarai's understanding, of the mixed reactions of their friends and family. As she finished, Odyn's face softened and he pulled her into a comforting embrace.
"We will face whatever comes together, Hinata. I will always stand by your side.",Odyn told him as he hugged her.
She smiled up at him, grateful for his unwavering support. But as they made their way through the village that day, she couldn't shake the feeling of unease that lingered in the back of her mind. When they arrived at the Hyuga compound, the tension in the air was palpable. Hinata's family members all wore strained expressions, their eyes flitting between Odyn and her, their children clinging to their sides.
Hinata's heart sank as she realized that their marriage was not being accepted as easily as she had hoped. Despite Odyn's attempts to make peace with her relatives, the hostility in the atmosphere only seemed to grow. But Hanabi, true to form, was a beacon of light in the darkness.
She threw herself into the role of
doting aunt, showering Odyn and Hinata's children with love and affection, much to their delight. Her playful antics brought a much-needed smile to Hinata's face. As for the others, their reactions varied. Naruto was surprisingly understanding, his bright smile never faltering as he congratulated them on their union. Sarai, too, was gracious and kind, welcoming Odyn into their extended family with open arms.
Hinata's friends were a mixed bag. Ino and Sakura were supportive, their friendship unwavering. Choji and Shikamaru offered their quiet acceptance, while Kiba and Sasuke remained somewhat aloof, but not openly hostile. Midori and Kasumi, always the peacemakers, tried to bridge the divide between the Hyuga clan
and Odyn, though their efforts seemed to fall on deaf ears. Kakashi sensei watched from the sidelines, his masked face unreadable. But the biggest surprise came when Neji, once so cold and distant, approached Hinata and Odyn with a small smile.
" I may not understand your choices, cousin, but I respect them. You have my
support.", Neji said smiling.
Tenten and Rock Lee, true to form, arrived with a flourish, offering their congratulations in the most dramatic fashion possible. Lee even went as far as to challenge Odyn to a sparring match,
which ended in laughter and camaraderie. Despite these small victories, the village still seemed hesitant to fully embrace their union. It was then that a bizarre turn of events occurred – a tournament was announced to decide Hinata's rightful husband, as if she hadn't already made her choice. Hinata was dumbfounded, her confusion palpable as she tried to make sense of the situation. Odyn, however, saw an opportunity for humor in the chaos.
"Well, my love, it seems I must prove my worth as your husband once more, he said with a twinkle in his eye. "But fear not, for I shall emerge victorious, as I always do."
And so, with a mixture of amusement and determination, Odyn entered the tournament, facing off against a series of challengers who sought to win Hinata's hand. Each fight was more absurd than the last, with Odyn emerging victorious every time, much to the amusement of the
onlookers. Finally, as the last challenger fell defeated at his feet, Odyn turned to Hinata with a flourish, dropping to one knee before her.
"My love, my queen, will you accept this victory as proof of my undying devotion to you?",Odyn dramatically asked with a flourish.
Hinata couldn't help but laugh through her tears, her heart overflowing with love for this man who had stood by her through everything.
"Yes, my king, I accept your victory with all my heart.", Hinata said laughing through joyful tears on her face.
And so, amidst cheers and applause, Odyn and Hinata's union was finally recognized as legitimate by the village. The tension that had once hung in the air dissipated, replaced by a sense of unity and acceptance. As they walked hand in hand through the streets of the Hidden Leaf Village, Hinata knew that no matter what challenges they faced in the future, as long as they had each other, they could overcome anything. And so, the Dark Elven High Prince and his beloved wife, the princess of the Hyuga clan, set out
on a new journey together, their love shining brightly like a beacon in the darkness.
