Fade to Black

Chapter 2

Before I must go, I must warn you of the future. When you turn eleven, the Hyuuga are planning a coup with the Uchiha, please change them Hina, change the Hyuuga...

Time runs short, Hina, I love you so much, please remember that. Goodbye, my daughter.'

Hinata places a hand over her agape mouth as her tears finally spilled over and fell down her cheeks, she hiccuped, causing the flood gates to open, "CHICHIYO!"

Hiashi pulled her into an embrace and rubbed her back, "He loved you Hinata, remember that."

Hiashi pulled away from the hug and kneeled, he pressed his head against the hard wood floor, "Please forgive me Hinata. I made you grow up too fast, you never got to know what regular family felt like..."

Hinata watched in shock as the head of the Hyuuga bowed to her, tears sill pouring down her face.

Flashback End

Hinata stood from the floor, cleaned her face and walked out of her empty house.

She had to ask for Neji's forgiveness.

She quickly made her way to his room, ignoring the sneers of main branch members. Hinata made it to the large shoji door and knocked twice, "Neji-sama?"

The door opened, revealing an eight-year-old Neji, his lush, mocha brown hair out of its usual ponytail and hung freely down his back, "Hinata-nee-san! What're you doing here?" The grin on his lips faded as he noticed the tears in Hinata's eyes, "Hinata-nee? What's wrong?"

Hinata fell to the floor and pressed her sealed forehead against the mahogany floors, "I'm so sorry for everything Neji-sama! I never should've taken my anger out on you, I never acted like the Onee-chan you needed, please... Please forgive me, Neji-sama..."

Neji stood silently in his doorway, his eyes widened to the fullest extent. He then pulled her up to stand and smiled again, "What're you apologizing for, Hinata-nee? I'd never hate you!"

"I'd never hate you!"

XXXXXXXXXX

Hinata stood next to Itachi, her porcelain ANBU mask on her face as Danzō stood before them, "Do you two understand what you need to do?"

The two prodigies nodded and chorused, "Hai, Danzō-sama." In unison, their voices low and emotionless.

The old, corrupt man paced in front of the two, his wooden cane clicking against the cement floors, "It must be done by tomorrow night. From our sources, they plan to attack the day after tomorrow, understood?"

"Hai, Danzō-sama."

XXXXXXXXXX

"I'd never hate you!"

'It seems your words hold no truth, Neji...' Hinata thought as she slashed through her distant cousin, Hajime, she thought his name was.

She swiftly made her way into the main branch compound, slaughtering anyone in sight, before she reached her final destination.

Hinata warily gazed down at her uncle, trying to hold her tears back as she raised her open palm, "So this is the path you've chosen?"

Hiashi's voice rang out, shattering Hinata's heart, "H-Hai, Hiashi-oji-sama..."

Hiashi sighed and sent a smile to her from over his shoulder as he sat on his knees, "Do not fear, Hyuuga don't show fear... I'm so proud of you Hinata..."

"You really are a kind child. Your father would be so proud of you..."

At the age of eleven, Hinata murdered her whole clan, in the same night, Itachi murdered his clan, both to prevent a double coup.

The only people who know the truth of these massacres are the Hokage and Shimura Danzō, so they will act as traitors.

She will become the Hyuugas' downfall.

He will become the Uchihas'.

With tears falling down her cheeks, Hinata swung her sword and decapitated her uncle, "I love you, Hiashi-oji-sama..."

Before his tragic death, Hiashi muttered out a small, "I love you, protect Neji."

Hinata closed her eyes and sobbed into her hand, who wouldn't after just murdering their entire family except for their younger cousin?

"Hinata, please don't do this... You can join us, we will create a world where no one will ever belittle you ever again..."

Hinata took in a shaky breath, her heart watching from its diamond solid casing, "Ko-nii-san... I'm sorry, I am but a tool for Konoha's use, and I can't watch my village fall."

Ko sighed and slid into the Hyuuga stance, his eyes closing in sorrow, "If that's how it must be. Let us fight, Hinata."

Hinata had a pained expression sprawled across her face as she summoned her katana, "Very well, Nii-san..."

Hinata's eyes snapped open as she felt Neji's chakra enter the Hyuuga compound, she quickly wiped her tears and composed herself, No matter what happens from here on out, I will always love you, Neji...

She turned her back to the Shoji door and locked away her emotions as Neji slid the door open, "Hinata-nee...? Nee-san! Who did this to our family?! Who would do-" He was silenced by Hinata striking the chakra point his left arm, disabling it.

"Oh dear Otouto... Can't you tell that I did this? I slaughtered our clan, even your poor Tou-sama couldn't stop me." Hinata glared at Neji, sneering as he shook in fear, but in reality, was holding back her tears.

Neji's mouth was agape in a silent scream before he sputtered out a sentence, "B-B-But w-why?! Wh-Why Would you d-do this?!"

Hinata watched him fall to his knees and seemingly sneered in disgust, "The clan is weak- Or, well, was weak. I rid it of the weak blood, I only acted as the perfect 'Nee-san' to measure your abilities."

Neji tried to speak, but no words would form as Hinata continued, "So, once the weight of what I've done settles in, use your hatred. And once you've become strong enough, we shall fight. It was written in our fates when we were born, your destiny is to be weak. Mine is to destroy this pathetic clan. So live, cling to your wretched life, you're not even worth killing."

With that, Hinata disappeared in a swirl of leaves as she heard an alarm sound over the village, but not before placing a genjutsu over Neji, showing him how his clan was murdered. I'm so sorry, Otouto...

Hinata then appeared next to Itachi, outside the walls of Konoha, "Are all loose ends tied on your side, Itachi?" Itachi grunted in affirmation, "And what of Madara?"

The Uchiha heir side glanced at her as they both heard sirens wailing and watched from the shadows as ANBU flew past them, "He said he will meet us at the Akatsuki hideout." Itachi studied Hinata's pained expression carefully, her glassy lavender eyes empty, "Did you... eliminate them all...?"

Hinata shook her head no, "I left Neji, I-I couldn't..." Itachi's expression softened, it was the first time he heard her voice crack.

"It's ok, Hinata, he will find solace with Sasuke(1)."
