Chapter 16 - Moving on

It has been two weeks since Hitomis death and I have spent most of my time inside of my room.

I would either spent my time drawing, reading or playing shogi against Kaguya or Minion01. Sometimes I would even train with my Qi threads, but other than those I did not train.

Kaguya and Minion01 kept me company and we would often talk about trivial things, like how certain dishes from my past life taste and have Kaguya try them out inside of my mind as I found memories regarding those. She is apparently a huge fan of pizza and cola.

It is funny to see the person you thought of as mad and insane, completely smitten by fast food.

Anyway I am currently standing in front of my mothers grave and just lost in memories.

The funeral itself was boring even though important figures like the Hokage or other Clan Heads attended it.

Everyone had something to say about Hitomi, but I just couldn't register what they said and instead tried thinking about my next steps.

I knew Hitomi would be gone I also know what I will now have to do: Leave Konoha.

And I would totally start planning my escape attempt, if there would not be a small problem.

I haven't seen either my father nor my new sister in the last two weeks and to be honest, I have no idea how to face them.

There is no way that I will stay in Konoha so why should I still bother with talking to Hiashi?

Why should I try to befriend Hanabi in the future? She will probably just forget me anyway, after all she is still a baby.

Ugh. No point to overthinking everything. They way Hiashi didn't care about me obviously reflects badly on the way he will treat me in the future and there is no point to even bother with Hanabi.

"Hinata?"

Damn. That scared me. I should have paid more attention to my surroundings.

"Everyone already left hours ago."

Hours? How long have I been standing here?

"Itachi, why are you here? Shouldn't you be on some kind of mission right now? Saving princesses or something?"

"I just wanted to talk to my friend."

"Friend? Me? Shisui probably told to you to talk to me or worse your mother."

"You know Shisui?"

Crap. The funeral might have had a bigger impact on me than I thought.

"Hn." Just do the Uchiha. That should solve everything right?

Oh come on Itachi. Don't give me that freaky look. I am not hiding any impossible knowledge about the future of this whole world.

"Hn. Both did in fact talk to me."

"Is that why you are here instead of proclaiming your Uchiha Awesomeness to the whole world?"

"*sigh* Hinata you are an odd child. You are not even 3 years old and already behave like a grown up while your body is more that of a 8 year old. People call me a prodigy and sometimes even monster; I wonder that makes you?"

"Obviously more awesome than you."

"Possibly."

"Oh hear hear. The mighty Uchiha admitted defeat."

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

"Hinata. I am here to help you and to be the target of your anger if you need one. You are after all a good friend."

"Itachi." I just look into his eyes with my blank eyes.

"Your good nature will be your downfall." I really shouldn't do this.

"You will have to face agonizing decision." Telling him might stop a massacre.

"You will try to carry too many responsibilites on your shoulders." Stopping the massacre will dramatically change the plot.

"At least know that, I will find a solution." Yes. Let's just stop here.

"Hinata? What are you talking about?"

"Don't worry about it. I am just too weird right now."

"Hn."

We just spent around ten minutes in front of my mothers grave, when Itachi speaks up again.

"My mother wanted me to invite you to the Uchiha compound. She got wind of your cooking skills and wanted to have a taste."

"Seriously. Let her know that I will be there. Just pick me up to carry the ingredients."

"Hn."

"Will you leave now? I just want to spend some time alone here. Please?"

"Hn. See you."

After an hour of just looking at the gravestone, I lay down the flower I brought with me.

I had ordered Ko to get me a white rose and had him apply a genjutsu on it that let the rose shine in a blue light.

Hitomi always talked fondly of my eyes and I just wanted to do something special for her.

Unfortunately all that waiting around, slowly dried up the rose as the genjutsu is using the rose to empower itself.

So now I have a blue shining, white and dried rose on top of my mothers grave.

"I am sorry mother, but I won't be able to look after Hanabi."

And then I walk back to the Hyuga compound.

----------------------------------------

"Ko, why are you waiting in front of my room?"

"Your father sends a message. He expects you to be punctual to your training as it is expected of the Hyuga Heiress."

That father couldn't even bother coming himself.

"I see."

"Hinata. How do you fe-"

"Ko. Who is currently looking after Hanabi?"

"A member of the Branch famnily."

"Very well. Is there something else of importance?"

"No."

"Then you are dismissed."

----------------------------------------

On the next day I make my way to the training field and see many different people standing there.

Children from what seems to be the age of 5 to 12 all stand rigidly in front of my father, and many of the elders waiting for any orders.

I hope he is not planning to have me fight them all.

"Daughter-" He is not even bothering calling my name nor looking in my direction "you are to showcase your power in front of the Hyugas youth.

Many of them are academy students and should serve as good training partners."

Or in other words cannon fodder. What are they planning at? Do they want to humiliate me? Or do they really think a 2 year old (well I am closer to a 5 year old with my body, but that is neither here nor there) could seriously fight all these people?

Wait. Are they planning to use them as fodder for me to release some pent up feelings? Whatever it is they plan, I will be doing exactly that.

"Rules?"

"One on One. You start against people closer to your age and go upwards from there. No crippling attacks or sharp weapons. Everything else is allowed."

"Very well."

32 children. 16 are below 10 years old. Will I manage to beat them all? I am probably not supposed to, but no one knows about my proficiency with my Qi threads.

----------------------------------------

My first opponent is a small boy with typical long black Hyuga hair. His stance is sloppy and he lacks muscles to be even a threat. He didn't even activate his Byakugan.

Is that not an utter failure of a Hyuga? Or are Neji and me just too advanced? I know for a fact that Neji can use his Byakugan and would use it in every fight to train it, but unlike him this boy just screams 'weak'.

"Name?"

"R-Re-En!"

"Rreen? Are you retarded? Why are you stuttering? Are you not a proud a Hyuga?!"

"Iiick! N-no. I am so-sorry."

"Again!"

"I Aam So-soRRY!"

"Again! I couldn't hear you with your retarded stutter!"

"SorRY *hick*. I am sorry. *sob*"

"Leave. You are not a worthy opponent. Your stance is sloppy, your body is weak and your mind is fragile. You are a complete failure!"

Needless to say the boy started crying and immediately left the training field.

It feels good to let some of my pent up feelings leave me. Of course I feel slightly guilty about that, but right now I just don't care.

"Who else will try to insult me with your non-existent skill?!"

Out of 31 children only 6 managed to look into my eyes.

"You six stay. Everyone else may go. If you can't even look into my eyes then how are you supposed to fight me?"

'Boss are you sure that you want to fight those six? They seem super angry for what you did.'

'Then we will atleast have a real fight.'

'Are you sure you can match up with them? They are proably already genin-level and I don't see us winning with our weak body.'

'Yes. We are slower and weaker then that. But As I see it, I am not fighting alone against them. You are with me afterall and we might have a chance together against one of them.'

'But Boss I can only use Qi threads and you only the Gentle Fist. How are we supposed to be children twice as fast and strong with more techniques and experience than us?'

'Only Qi threads? Are you serious? How many can we make? As far as I know we can sustain one Qi thread up to a dozen meters or split it up into multiple shorter ones. You will make use of the shorter ones to trip, push or pull the opponent, while I try to land a finishing blow. We will probably still lose, but I won't expect their win to be so simple.'

'You got it Boss!'

'Ah your infamous Qi threads. I can't wait to see how they are different from normal chakra ones, Hinata.'

'Don't worry Kaguya. You will be surprised.'

'Hm~ I hope so. It will already be hard to see my champion lose, but like they say: You reap what you sow.'
