Previously- Hiashi makes a grave mistake out of rage and ends up 'selling' Hinata to her grandfather, Hozin, who's intentions are unknown but it is thought she will be made a slave. 5 days pass and Hinata still doesn't know about Hiashi's deal with Hozin. All is going well at school and home so Hinata is in a good mood, however, Hiashi decides to tell Hinata the truth... what will happen?


--------CHAPTER 8: REBIRTH, A BLOND SAVIOR---

----> HYUGA RESIDENCE, 6:30 A.M. ---- HANABI P.O.V. ----

We continued hugging for a while, and I basked in the warmth that I had been deprived of my entire life. This moment, these few minutes, were the best of my life. But I knew they would end. I felt father move away from the embrace and me and Hinata immediately payed attention.

"Hinata... I need to tell you something"
This was it. My sister would know the truth. This would break her, I just knew it. Hozin, my grandfather was a horrible person; he would work in the shadows and scheme his way to the top. He wanted power, which Hiashi now had. Hozin wanted the company and he knew, despite what Hiashi says, that he loves his daughters. So, like the bastard he was, he used that against him. He knew very well if he took Hinata, Hiashi would be emotionally unstable knowing that it would all be his fault. And when that happened, he would take the company and declare Hiashi emotionally unstable to run the company.
"Hinata... I talked to your grandfather a few days ago..." He started.
I began panicking, what should I do? What could I do? The clock was ticking, I didn't want father to tell Hinata, but what could I do?

"And we've decided that... after your training..."
No, no, no, no! I was practically begging my father not to tell her. I didn't want Hinata in pain. But my throat was dry; I couldn't speak. I could only cry and watch my sister as she looked at my father with love. I could only cry, knowing this was the end of her.
"And you're going... g-going to..." he coughed lightly, looking away from us. "That you would go and work with y-your grandfather..." he spoke, his voice breaking slightly at the end. "I... I'm not certain of what your job will include... b-but..." he said, unable to say that it was probable she would be turned into a slave to her grandfather or the Hyuga or she would be sold. But, neither of the sisters needed to be told this; it was self explanatory what she would have to do.

I looked up to Hinata. I saw emptiness. She was wearing no expression, her tears stopped and she just stared blankly and our father as he apologized again and again.
"I... I'm sorry, Hinata. Hinata, I-I'm sorry. I don't expect you to forgive me, just... just please say something..." he pleaded, tears escaping from his eyes as he stared back at his eldest daughter.

I couldn't understand the pain she must be going through. I couldn't. No one could; the happiest moment of her life was just ruined and crushed; the happiest time of her life, when she had real friends and a real family... was crushed. What was left was an empty shell which I was staring at.

She didn't say anything, she didn't move. The seconds passed by achingly slowly. My father and I just stared, pleadingly that she would say something or show some kind of emotion, even if it was anger. Anything was better than this!
Suddenly, she slowly rose, arms dead at her side, eyes strained to the floor. As she got up, she broke out hug. Broken. That was what she was; broken. Yet, as always, I was powerless; I could only stand and watch as she slowly walked away.
"I understand" That was all she said as she left. It was quiet and I hardly herd it. This was it.


This was the end of Hinata Hyuga.



--- 2 DAYS LATER -- OUTSIDE KONOHA HIGH SCHOOL -- 3:10 P.M. --- NARUTO P.O.V. ----

I walked down the steps from the entrance, avoiding people as I did. I was so tired; I had just finished P.E. (N/A: Physical Education) and we had played rugby. I loved rugby, so I had put in 1000% of my effort into the game, which consequently made me exhausted. My legs felt wobbly and I was still sweating. As I thought about the game, I walked to the outer gates of the school. And I stopped completely; Hinata would always wait for me here. She would wave happily when she saw me and we'd walk together. Even though my house was the other side of Konoha, I loved to walk her home while talking about the weirdest things which normally had no importance. We would laugh together and I would drop her off after which I would give her a huge hug, whisper a 'good-bye' in her ear, and leave with a huge smile on my face. I loved walking her home. But lately, she hadn't come to school. I was lonely.

But, she wasn't here, again. What had happened? Where was she? Was she alright?
Those were some of the questions running through his mind. I couldn't help it. She had made such good progress lately and she seemed genuinely happy. We had become best friends, even though I wanted more. That's right; I liked Hinata, a lot. But I knew that I couldn't tell her; she was new to the whole 'life school' concept, she would have definitely not ever of had a boyfriend or any experience with them either. So, I decided to take it slow, even if it hurt to see her with other guys, smiling. Even if it hurt when we walked together and I could not hold her soft, pale hands, or kiss her rosy lips.
I stopped thinking like that and focused; here I was imagining kissing her and she might be in trouble! I was such an ass and a pervert sometimes...

I signed loudly, walking down the road towards my home. When Hinata couldn't walk with me, I normally would walk home with Sasuke-teme, but now that he was going out with Sakura-chan, they would walk together home, and he definitely didn't want to walk with them; they got pretty intimate at times!

So, I continued walking, not even bothering to mask my disappointment that Hinata wasn't here to walk with me. That's when it dawned on me; I could go and visit her! I would have to bring something for her, in case she was ill.
So with renewed determination, I jogged to the store and then made my way to the Hyuga estate, excited that I would see Hinata.


--- 30 MINUTES LATER -- OUTSIDE HYUGA ESTATE -- NARUTO P.O.V. ---

I made it, but I was feeling very nervous; what if she didn't want to see anyone? What if she didn't want to see me? I was sweating, and the basket of fruit I brought felt like it was going to drop any minute now. I was taking deep breaths, trying, but failing to calm the hell down.

Before I could even knock at the enormous door in front of me, someone had already opened it. I stared blankly at the man before me; he was tall, his hair coming passed his shoulder blades, he was wearing a traditional men kimono which was a plain grey.
My eyes reached his face and I instantly realized who this man was; Neji.

"Whoa, Neji!" I exclaimed, happy that at least someone I knew had opened the door.
He stared blackly at me, his eyebrow rising slightly, questioning me silently. "Uzumaki" He addresses me formally. "I was not aware that we would have visitors. Do you want something?" Ah. Right to the point; typical Neji. Neji was a simple guy once you got to know how he works and he's a man who doesn't beat around the bush; a man of business. Which is likely why there's rumor that he's the 'Hyuga prodigy'

I smiled a big grin at Neji, he was alright. Quite a nice guy when you didn't piss him off... "Well, actually I was here to visit Hinata. I mean, I haven't seen her around in school so I though that I should..." I trailed off. But when I mentioned Hinata's name, the normally stoic face of Neji twitched. That was odd and disturbing. Now I knew something was wrong!
"Hinata... is unavailable" He said, clearly not comfortable with the topic of his younger cousin.

I raised an eyebrow. Now something was definitely wrong! "C'mon, Neji! Let me see her! What's wrong with her? Did something happen?" I asked, worried for Hinata's well being.
"Family matters, Uzumaki. I'm sorry" He said, clearly not sorry at all. And in 'Neji-code' that meant 'Mind your own business, asshole'
He shut the door, leaving a gawking me behind. OK, now I was pissed!

"Oii, Neji! Hey! Let me in!" I yelled as I knocked on the door repeatedly. "Hello!?" I asked sarcastically "Hey, Neji! C'mon, let me in!" I yelled louder. It was pointless. I signed, but I was not going to give up! So, I leaved the front door and went to the garden like I did that once when I picked her up to go to Suigetsu's party.
When I arrived, I picked up a couple of pebbles from the ground and began hitting her window. I stood there, trying to be as quiet as possible while I threw stones at her window and whispered 'Hinata' continuously. But there was no answer. But the light was on. Someone was in there! I began getting frustrated; why was no one letting me in! I just wanted to talk to her! Jesus Christ, I was so angry!

I began to shout, my anger fueling me. I jumped up and down; anything to get her attention. But she still did not answer. I gave up plan A, and started plan B, which was force my way in.

I saw some tree which branches extended enough for me to climb into her room. I climbed up on the tree being as careful as possible not to fall and break my neck because that was the last thing I needed! I made it on to the branch and opened her window carefully. Once it was open enough, I jumped in. But because I was such a klutz I fell face-first, taking some pictures which lay on her windowsill down with me. Thankfully nothing broke.
I whined at the pain the landing caused me and peered around Hinata's bedroom. It was a good size and simplistic. It was in the corner of the estate so there were two windows overlooking two different sides of the garden surrounding the huge estate. She had a wardrobe a bed and some other furniture. The walls were a plain white and the room was quite bare of any personal belongings. Was this really Hinata's room? I had expected her to be a person who kept everything and had a special place for anything and everything.

But as I looked around, I noticed a round blob on the floor on the corner of the room. As I got closer, I then noticed it was Hinata who was tightly hugging herself, head over her knees and arms covering her face. She was dead still. I was worried now, she was just sitting there, had she even noticed my presence? Herd me at all? Was she ignoring me? I shrugged it off, and quickly but quietly walked to her side.

"Hinata...?" I asked quietly, sitting down next to her. But she didn't look up, in fact she didn't even twitch. Nothing. I felt a bang of hurt in my heart. What had happened to Hinata?

I didn't even think about it, but I embraced her tightly in my hands. I moved her slightly so her head was against my chest and my head resting on hers. Her skin was cold and I was very worried.

"Hinata?" I called again. But again, no answer. "Hey Hinata, I'm here. I'm here" I repeated softly, hugging her tighter. "I'm here... so... so no one can hurt you now" I said as I began crying; I couldn't stand her in pain, I only wanted to help her. I wanted to see her smile and hear her laugh. "I'm here" I said again, mustering all the tenderness I could in my voice.

She didn't say anything for the longest of time, and I thought that maybe there was nothing I could do after-all. But as to prove me wrong I felt my shirt get wet. She was crying. Thank god; showing some emotion was better than none, and by showing some at least I knew I could help. I herd a couple of cute sniffles and her once limp hands on her sides came up and embraced me back; holding the back of my shirt tighter, pulling me further into the embrace.

I also hugged her tighter knowing that when she wanted to talk, I'd be there to hear all her stories, I would listen and reassure her, because I... I-I... I l-loved her. I really did. If she needed to cry, I would be there; I would be her shoulder to cry on and I would help her stand on her own two feet again. And if she wanted help, I would help her. I'd help her until everything was OK and she was happy, even if it took long, even if it costs me my own happiness, I would. Because I love her, so... so much. I always did, even if I've only known her for a bit longer then a week, I wanted to be there through thick and thin.

And I wanted to be there when she needed me... like now. I embraced her tighter, letting her know I was there ans asked quietly, tenderly "Tell me, Hinata..." I whispered, as she hugged me tighter "Tell me what happened" She faltered before she buried her face into my chest. I lifted my hand and stoked her hair reassuringly. "It's alright, Hina... you can tell me... I'll help, I promise. No matter what" I said with determination and I felt her nod against my chest, which made me smirk; she believed in me.
"I-I... I... I'll tell y-you" She said, sniffling into my chest. I smiled at her. and stroke her hair.

"It's OK, Hinata. Take your time" I said to her reassuringly.
Yes. I would be there for her. Always...
