DISCLAMER: I do not own Naruto in any way, Toorima and all her adorableness however is the daughter of my brilliance lol.

This is my first story dedicated to my sensei Onileo. Thank you for everything I would never have posted this if not for you!

I also need to give a fair warning. This story contains STRONG language (thanks to Hidan) and plenty of violence. I will have lemons in later chapters. So if any of this will upset you please don't read. Thank you. If you don't mind however, I hope you enjoy it. 3

Chapter One

*****

Huff...

Huff...

Crunch… Hinata Hyuuga fell to her knees unable to run anymore. "That's enough for now then?" Shino asked catching up to his female teammate and stopping about four or so feet from her. She had been able to outrun both her comrades for a solid sixteen minutes at full speed. Not even Akamaru, Kibas' faithful companion was able to catch up to her. It seemed her small agile body was making it easier for her to maneuver through the trees at incredible speed.

Hinata nodded as Kiba made his entrance. "Holy crap Hinata-chan! That trick with your jacket was really smart!" He said attempting to give her a confidence boost. She had attempted to stall him by shedding her jacket in the hopes that Kiba would follow that instead of her because he follows his sense of smell, it worked giving her a small lead as Kiba and Akamaru headed for the jacket until they discovered what had happened leaving her clear to run ahead.

Akamaru trotted over to her and licked her bare shoulder as Kiba stepped forward to offer her his hand. She took it gladly and stood up dusting her legs off and blushed a light pink as the boy held her jacket to her making her realize she was in her dark blue tank top and fishnet that was a little more revealing than she was used to. Blushing deeper she quickly grabbed the jacket, pulling it on and zipping it up quickly while Kiba tried as hard as he could to hide the fact that he had enjoyed the rare view much more than was considered proper.

Shino turned and headed back in the direction of the village as the other two followed. Shino too enjoyed the sight of the shy girl in a less covered fashion, but he would take that secret with him to the grave. The sun was just starting to set now as they entered the gates of Konohagakure. The quieter boy took his leave first with a quick "bye" and wave. Kiba turned to Hinata scratching the back of his head now that they were alone. "Are you hungry Hinata-chan?" He asked with a smirk. "N-not really, I n-need to get home b-before my f-father gets upset, t-thank you though K-kiba-kun." She said giving him a slight bow and jogging off in the direction of the Hyuuga compound. Kiba sighed and looked down at Akamaru. "One day…" was all he said before climbing atop the huge canine and headed back to his place.

The usual frown returned to the heiresses' lips and her head dropped as she rounded the last corner to reach her home, if you could call it that. She looked at it like more of a prison where her every action was scrutinized. It was no secret that she was a disappointment to her father and he looked for any reason to replace her as heir to the Hyuuga clan. That was what caused her to train so ridiculously hard day after day, skipping meal after meal, and losing more and more sleep. All of this was in the hopes she could one day reach her father's expectations and be seen for who she is and the abilities she does have instead of what she lacked.

A few servants were about tending the garden or hanging the laundry as she passed the gate of the compound. No use letting anyone know she was back, they either wouldn't care, or would pester her with questions she wasn't in the mood to answer.

Her room was undisturbed as she opened the screen door and stepped in closing the door behind her again. Not a single person acknowledged her on her way through the house and she was used to it, so it didn't bother her in the slightest. She was pretty sure that her father told servants to ignore her unless she herself approaches them. It was to teach her to stop being so timid.

The sound of the water was soothing as she started the shower. Tonight she was determined to get a good amount of rest. Today her performance was lacking because she was practicing all night at her secret waterfall outside the village. Her defense jutsu was almost perfected and she was calculating different ways to make it offensive. Before she even put those into a real trial she wanted to perfect it for defense first.

The light purple jacket was tossed on the bed as Hinata shed her clothes to shower. Just as she was to enter her bathroom however there was a light knock on her bedroom door. Her breath stopped for just a second before she quickly grabbed her silk robe and opened the door to look down at her now eleven year old sister Hanabi.

Pale lavender eyes looked down into pale lavender eyes and Hinata smiled sweetly. "Y-yes?" She asked her little sister. Hanabi looked up at her sister with an odd expression on her face. The younger girl really did love her sister even though she would never boast about it around their father. "A messenger was here for you earlier onee-sama, you have to go to the Hokages' office tomorrow at 1p.m." She said relaying the message. "T-thank you Hanabi-chan." The older woman said meekly. Before she could shut her door the younger spoke again. "Um…could I talk to you for a minute onee-sama?" She said looking down. "S-sure." Hinata said stepping back to let Hanabi in and closed the door behind her.

Hanabi made her way to the bed and sat down on the edge, still looking down. "W-well, there is this…boy." The little hyuuga started and Hinata was slightly confused. When there was no reply Hanabi looked up. This is what she needed her sister for things a boy couldn't help her with. She had her father and Neji for all the other things like training, but love and other topics were strictly to be discussed with her sister since their mother has passed.

Hinata wanted to help her sister, but this was probably the worst topic to ask her about. I mean seriously, she has had a huge crush on the same guy for too many years now and has never even had a full conversation with him. "Hanabi-chan, I-I'm not s-sure I can help y-you." Was all she could say, but she placed her hand on her little sisters shoulder. "Don't worry, you are m-much stronger than I a-am. I am sure wh-whoever this b-boy is, it will a-all work out." Then she hugged her tightly.

Hanabi smiled and hugged her sister back. Hinata didn't realize just how much she really helped her sister in a lot of ways. Hanabi would no doubt grow to be stronger than Hinata, or so she was told, but she knew that her beauty would always be untouched my any in the clan. Hinata had many of their mothers' traits where Hanabi inherited much from her father which is also tribute to the older Hyuugas timid nature.

Hanabi left after the hug was broken and Hinata finally entered her bathroom. She removed her robe and quickly hoped in the shower. The water felt good as the steady stream soothed her stiff, lean muscles and cleaned away the days sweat and grime.

"Jashin fucking damn it!" Hidan complained as entered the kitchen to find Tobi there at the table talking up a storm. Ever since the man woke up this morning he was in an unusually bad mood. His mission was cancelled for some unknown reason, Kakuzu was being a greedy bastard like always, counting his money and refusing to spare with him and the rain outside was heavier than most days.

"KON-BAN WA HIDAN-SAN!" Tobi sang as Hidan passed him for the fridge. The Jashinist glared at the masked idiot but didn't say anything. The fridge squeaked annoyingly as he opened it only to slam it shut a second later. "Why is there no fucking food in this place!?!?" He yelled finally. With a growl he stomped from the room to demand money from the only other akatsuki immortal.
