"I-Itachi?" she repeated. She couldn't see, but Itachi had nodded.

"Are you hurt?" he asked, looked at the girl for any kind of injury. Hinata shook her head.

"Are you sure? Can you walk?" he asked, seeing that she was clearly terrified. She hesitantly nodded, and stood up, using the boulder to help.

"M-my dad…" Hinata whispered, and tears silently flowed. Itachi let her cry for a few minutes, as he studied her features, to make sure she wasn't an enemy. From the first look at her, obviously this little girl wasn't. But with a close look, he knew she was a Hyuuga, and a pure one at that.

"Don't worry, most of them are alive. The only ones I saw that were dead were mostly the guards. Was your dad a guard?" Itachi asked, not realizing that if he was, he would just make Hinata cry even more.

"N-no..he's Hiashi Hyuuga…", Hinata said, crying even more, for the guards that had lost their lives. Itachi blinked…thinking, this is General Hyuuga's daughter? He didn't even know the General had a child. Hinata heard a lot more footsteps now, by the battle spot.

"Wh-what's happening?" she asked, frightened.

"Looks likes the medics are here. Come, I'll help you look for your father." he said, and started walking towards the bodies. Hinata didn't follow. Itachi turned around.

"What's wrong?" he asked. Hinata gulped.

"I can't see." she said, quietly. Itachi frowned, and walked back towards her.

"What do you mean?" he asked, not seeing how mean that question was. Hinata blinked, embarrassed, with tears still falling.

"I-I I'm blind." she said, hoping he would get it now. Itachi studied her eyes. They looked the same as any other Hyuuga's. White, with a lavender tint. He didn't get it. A blind Hyuuga? He didn't think it was possible, seeing as they had much of their great power came from their eyes. But he saw he scared Hinata was.

"I apologize for not noticing." he said. She continued sniffling. He took her hand, to her surprise, and gently pulled her behind him. Hinata cried and cried, wondering if her dad was alive, then another thought struck her. The baby!!!!! That little baby, even though she's never held her, Hinata loved her, because she was her sister!

"Hey, Shizune, I need to find out if General Hyuuga is alive." he said, bluntly. Shizune looked at the little girl, whose hand Itachi was holding. She was only about 5'0", and looked like a scared little bunny, compared to Itachi, and his 6' 5" body.

"Ah, yes, we put him on a stretcher, and we have Tsunade working on him. He'll be perfect tomorrow." the medic said. Itachi smiled reassuringly, at the little girl behind him.

"See, everything's fine." he said.

"What about the b-baby?" Hinata asked, relieved a little that her dad was going to be better. Itachi looked at her in confusion.

"Ah! Yes, the baby riding with Hiashi, was protect with a chakra shield, along with her mother. Right now, they're being taken to the castle to rest. Hinata sighed, welcoming the relief, until she remembered.

"What about Kurenai?" she asked, anxiously.

"You know Kurenai?" Itachi asked, with many more questions buzzing through his head.

"She's terribly injured, and has a concussion. She had our finest medics with her, heading towards the castle, for better care." Shizune said. Hinata became worried.

"Don't worry. She'll be better soon." Shizune said, see Hinata's expression. Suddenly, a hhorse stopped in front of them.

"Here you go Prince. I took care of him just as you asked." said a deep male voice.

"Ah, thank you, Asuma." Hinata felt left out, not knowing anyone, or what was going on. She was very hurt, that Mai was okay, yet she left without checking for Hinata. Not that Hinata expected for her to care about her, but knowing that it was true, made her feel terrible.

"Hey, I'm gonna put you on my horse." the Prince said, and without waiting for a reply, he lifted her up, and put her on his horse.

Prince Itachi's horse, was white, with a white man and tail. It had gold armor on it, just like Itachi. Itachi got on behind Hinata, and put her little hands on mane.

"You better hold on to that." he said, and without warning, he grabbed the golden manes, and the horse started to walk towards the castle.

"What's your name?" he asked the Hyuuga girl.

"Hinata." she said. And then, the horse started running, towards the castle.
