First things first – a visit to the
graveyard. It was now late afternoon when the two men stood at the entrance to
the village’s graveyard. They walked over the silent, eerie area, trying to find
the family grave of the Hyuuga-house. Sasuke stopped a moment by the Third
Hokage’s tomb stone and sent a silent prayer to the old man’s spirit, hoping
that he would guard over their coming tasks.
They wandered around quite a bit, but
they did found it, but there was something missing. Hinata’s name. It was not
there. They said she was dead, but why was she not ‘buried’ here? She was a
Hyuuga, she had used their blood line skills and their ways to fight. Had she
not been worthy enough to have her name on the family tombstone? They looked at
each other for a moment before parting to search the whole area. Perhaps she got
her a tombstone somewhere else?
But they looked all over the graveyard
they couldn’t find anything. The redheaded Gaara could feel his blood boil in
agony and rage. He had been an outcast for so long and the only person who had
not feared him was dead in the eyes of the public. He had to find her before it
was too late. He looked at Sasuke and saw that he too was beginning to get
frustrated. Well, the graveyard was a dead end, literary. What was next on the
list?
“Kakashi-sensei… if he’s still around.”
said Sasuke slowly. The memory of his stoic, and yet perverted teacher came in
to his mind. Perhaps he could help them?
They found Hatake, Kakashi lounging in a
tree. In his hand was an orange book. ‘Still the pervert and lazy assed
sensei Kakashi?’ thought Sasuke with a smirk.
The masked silverhaired man looked up to
see Gaara and Sasuke stroll over to him. ‘Now this looks interesting. Gaara
of the Desert and Uchiha, Sasuke? Did hell freeze over while I was taking a
nap?’ he thought and put the book down to greet the two youngsters. How old
were they now? 23, 24 perhaps. He sighed and felt old for a few seconds before
he regained his posture. Not the time to dwell in self pity. He could do that
later, if he wasn’t too lazy of course. Now his curiosity was peaked and he
wanted to satisfy it.
“Good afternoon gentlemen, what can I
help you with?” asked Kakashi as he eyed them. He didn’t trust Gaara for a
minute even if Naruto often went around yelling that Gaara was one of the good
guys now, and he was unsure about Uchiha, that boy had been gone a long time and
the hardness in the youngster’s eyes was slightly frightening, making the old
teacher’s hair stand on end. ‘Wouldn’t surprise me at all if this is
Orochimaru’s work…’
“Kakashi-sensei, good to see you again.”
said Sasuke politely and bowed to his old teacher. The copy ninja would always
be honoured by the last of the Uchiha.
“Sasuke, it is nice to see you too.
There was a rumour a couple of years ago that stated that you were dead.”
Kakashi said. “But I am glad to see that you are still among the living.”
“Thank you Kakashi-sensei, but I can
assure you that I am alive and well. Most likely my name was mixed up with my
brother, he’s the one who is dead. You know Gaara?”
Kakashi blinked as the subjects shifted
quickly. ‘Itachi is dead??!! How?? I must ask about Sasuke about it later.’
“Of course, but there is something
different about you this time, Gaara of the Desert, what happened?” asked
Kakashi as his uncovered eye watch the redheaded youth.
“Freedom Kakashi-san.” answered Gaara,
gaining a sour look from the silverhaired teacher. But as the one-eyed sharingan
user looked over him, he could see that he was accepted.
“That is good Gaara-san, now tell me –
why are you here? I can imagine that you two have stirred up some emotions
already.”
“We met Naruto earlier… and he told us
something that made us very worried.” said Gaara.
Kakashi just looked at them, not really
sure weather he should believe them or not. They were worried about something?
That was highly unlikely if you asked him. These two –worried?
Gaara looked at Sasuke, silently asking
him to continue the talking since he knew the teacher since long before.
“Let me tell you what happened last
night before I tell you what’s worrying us.” Sasuke began and then he told
Kakashi about the scream he had heard and who he had seen in the middle of the
night.
Kakashi eye widened for one moment, and
that was when he heard the name Hinata. ‘It’s impossible. Hinata-sama has
been dead for several years. Hanabi-sama was now the head of the Hyuuga-house.
She had married a strong man from the branch-house and is expecting the new heir
to the Hyuuga-throne. But Hinata-sama is dead. She died of heart failure. They
must have seen a ghost or an illusion or something.’ the former teacher
thought as he carefully watched their eyes. They didn’t lie; they believed that
they had seen Hinata.
“I can see that you do not believe us
Kakashi-san,” said Gaara. “But we speak the truth. And surely you must have
heard the screams sometime during the last eight years.”
Kakashi had to concur to that. He had
heard the screams and the talk that went around the village said it was a
banshee that haunted the forest. ‘If she is held captive, why doesn’t she
escape? Why just accept that someone have officially killed her? Could she be
blackmailed into silence, to just accept her fate?’ Then again, Hinata never
did anything to go against anybody, except for the time she fought her cousin
Neji. But she had been badly hurt after that. She didn’t oppose herself and she
never stood up for herself. She just went with the flow, silently following what
everybody thought she should do or say. ‘And if she’s being threatened not to
say anything to anyone… she might just keep herself alive…’ Yes, that was a
possibility. But you can only go so long, and using the nights of the full moon
was perhaps her only chance of keeping sane? Kakashi had to admit that it was a
possibility. His curiosity was awakened and he said he would try and get Kurenai
to tell him about Hinata’s sickness.
“Alright boys, I will help you. In
return I want to hear everything you two can find out. Talk some more to Naruto
and the gang.” Kakashi said.
“Thank you Kakashi-sensei.” Sasuke said
and bowed his head.
“And there is no need to call me that. I
am not a teacher anymore. Oh, and by the way Sasuke…. It’s good to see you
again.”
You could almost see him smile
underneath his mask. He put away his book and strolled back into the village
with his hands in his pockets.
Gaara and Sasuke soon followed. Neji was
next on their list. He had been connected to Hinata during their youth; perhaps
he knew something more, being her cousin and all even though there had been some
complications between them. But Sasuke was fairly sure that Naruto managed to
bang some sense into that fate-delirious Hyuuga during their Chuunin exams.
They were relieved that Kakashi-san was on their side. The former teacher was a
good ally to have. Sasuke must admit that he had missed the lazy assed jounin
during the years he had been away from Konoha. That man was as close as a father
he could have and he wondered if Kakashi had any clue about that.
The Hyuuga-mansion looked more like a
haunted castle than a mansion full of living people. Gaara stood a few feet
behind Sasuke and waited. The black haired young man knocked on the door and
waited for some sort of answer. The door was opened and Sasuke saw a young woman
with pearl white eyes and obviously very pregnant. Gaara gaped a bit, he was not
used to watch life grow; he had instead been the one to take it away.
Sasuke let his eyes fly over the petite
woman before looking into her pearly orbs. He was fairly sure that this was
Hinata’s younger sister and it wouldn’t take long before it was confirmed.
“Hanabi-san?” he asked.
“Yes…” she answered.
“I am Uchiha, Sasuke and my friend here
is Gaara. We are looking for Neji-san. Do you know where we can find him?” asked
Sasuke. For a second there was a shimmer of some sort in her eyes, but then it
was gone. But he had seen it, and it made his skin crawl. Then she just smiled
sweetly at him, and that made him feel even worse. He suppressed a shiver.
“No, I am sorry Uchiha-san; he has not
been seen for many years. He left after my sister’s demise and has not returned
since.” said Hanabi and looked sad.
Gaara wanted to growl. ‘The little
bitch, just who do she thinks she’s fooling with that innocent role-play?’
His fists balled and he wanted to rush forward to twist the answer out of her.
But he held his place, attacking a pregnant woman would not improve his status
in this village nor would he feel good about it either. But she was lying
through her teeth, anyone could hear that and that sent his soul into a raging
desire to give her what she deserved. But why was she lying? Was the thirst for
power that strong in her? Was the lust to rule the house of Hyuuga so big that
she had ‘killed’ her sister in order to gain it? Gaara wanted to rip out
her heart.
“What happened to Hinata-sama?” asked
Sasuke and saw her eyes change again. He teased her, just a tiny bit, calling
Hinata for Hinata-sama and herself for “just” Hanabi-san. He was sure that the
pregnant woman in front of him would find that to be utterly annoying. But hey,
he had just returned to Konoha. He had no information about things any more.
“She was always a weakling and her heart
was no better then her spirit. It just stopped beating one day and she died. It
happened eight years ago. Now if you will excuse me, I have other things to
do….” said the head of the Hyuuga-house and with that sentence she closed off
any further inquiring questions.
Sasuke and Gaara nodded and turned
around but were stopped by her voice again. “I suggest that you don’t go around
and mess with the past. You will bring up many sad memories.” And with that she
closed the door. The message was clear. They should not snoop around in business
that was not theirs.
But it was a bit too late for that. It
was their business now and they would not give up until Hinata was with them, in
safety. And if they had anything to say about it… it would have be very soon.
Their snooping might stir up dangerous emotions within the Hyuuga family, and
this might put their precious pearl in danger.
They walked back to the tree where they
found Kakashi and waited for the copy ninja to come there. They sat down under
the tree.
“So… Neji is gone too. Do you think they
got rid of him for real, or did they turn him into a banshee too?” asked Gaara
as he fiddled with a long straw. His eyes was a bit unfocused and Sasuke could
tell that he was thinking about Hinata very deeply.
“No, he left after they buried
Hinata-sama.” Kakashi’s voice came across the glade and the two youngsters
looked up at him. Kurenai was with him. “You remember Kurenai-san? Hinata was
put under her command together with Inuzuka, Kiba and Aburame, Shino. She will
tell you about Hinata’s sickness.”
Gaara and Sasuke nodded towards the
woman with long wavy, black hair and ruby red eyes. They years had given her
some few grey hairs, but it gave her a more mature and charismatic look. Her
fleeting and spellbinding charisma was strong and the wisdom in her eyes was
telling enough.
She looked at them and made a mental
note that she would ask Kakashi-san to forgive her. She had not believed him
when he told her that Gaara of the Desert and Uchiha, Sasuke had teamed up
together and now it looked like they were friends. Very good friends too. But
here they were, sitting next to each other under a tree, discussing just like
two friends who went back a long time. ‘Sometimes fate works in mysterious
ways.’ she thought and sat down on her knees in front of them.
“Gaara-san, you have seen Hinata-chan?
In the flesh I mean? Because if you are lying to me…” she let the unspoken
threat seep in to them. She was still a master of genjutsu. She could send them
into a hypnosis that would crush every little bone in their body and they would
still be a live to feel all the pain that came with it and she wouldn’t have to
put a finger on them.
“She’s alive; I have seen her the nights
of the full moon in a place not far from here. It was in the small clearing with
the pond. She goes there to… train is the wrong word, but she beats up a poor
tree until her hands are bleeding. The first time I saw her was eight years ago.
And during that first time I touched her Kurenai-san, her hands were warm and
her blood is real enough.” said Gaara and looked Kurenai straight in the eyes.
He still remembered how sweet her blood had smelled that very night.
‘He’s telling the truth, I can sense
it. Hinata-chan… she’s alive!!’ Kurenai’s heart
began to beat faster and she felt her face flush with emotions. Her little
Hinata was still alive.
Sasuke saw it and made a snort. Women,
always so emotional. But there was something that was moved inside him. Hinata
still had people that cared for her even if they had thought she was dead and
this was only a good thing.
“So what happened? They say that she
died because she had a weak heart.” Sasuke said and let his charcoal eyes bore
into her red ones, demanding answers. He wanted to know what could have caused
Hinata to fade away into darkness.
“It was Hiashi-sama who said that
Hinata-chan was sick. At first they cared for her at the house. But then her
condition got worse and she was hospitalized, we all visited her and she looked
as if she was very sick. But Hiashi-sama never let the Godaime-sama or even
Shizune-san to treat her. But at the moment, we were so worried that we… I never
thought about it until the end. She has always been pale, but now it was like
her skin was more transparent. Dark rings around her eyes. I visited her the day
before she died. But she was being drugged due to the pain she was experiencing,
so she couldn’t talk. But she smiled at me. Gods in heaven… that smile. It has
haunted me in my dreams. She looked so…” Kurenai bit her lip as she forced the
tears back into their caves. She refused to cry like a young girl in front of
the guys. She was not a weak woman. She took a deep breath. “She looked so sad…
so empty.”
Gaara realized that the woman had
described his precious pearl just the way he had done the first time he saw her.
Sadness, it was like her whole persona was made of sadness. ‘But don’t you
worry Hinata… you’ll soon be safe with us.’ he thought and closed his eyes.
But where was she buried then?
“Kurenai-san? She’s not buried in the
family grave… so where was the burial held?” Gaara asked and looked at the woman
again.
“Hiashi-sama said she was unworthy so he
put her in another part of the graveyard. If you don’t know where it is, you
will never find it.” said Kurenai with a snort. Her hatred towards the
Hyuuga-clan had been growing for along time, but now… now they certainly had
made a formidable enemy in her. And by the looks of it, Hiashi-sama should be
glad that he died two years ago. Because if Kurenai got her hands on him now,
his treasured Byakugan blood line would not help him for two seconds. She would
have crushed him like the bug he was, under the heel of her foot. And bring in
Kakashi, Gaara and Sasuke… he would not stand a chance against them. And now… if
only the truth was known, Hanabi-san would not be the Hyuuga-ruler for very much
longer.
“So what do we do now?” asked Sasuke and
looked at his former teacher.
“Why don’t we try and figure out where
Neji-san went?” suggested Kakashi.
“You and I can go Kakashi-san; the boys
can stay here and talk to Hinata’s friends. I’m sure they want to know about
this too.” said Kurenai.
“I don’t think it is wise to talk too
much about it. We may have already endangered Hinata’s life by just searching
for Neji-san at the Hyuuga-mansion.” said Sasuke and silently cursed himself for
that mistake.
“I believe that you are correct
Sasuke-kun.” said Kakashi-san and nodded. “Kurenai-san and I will go on a search
for Neji-san. If he has not covered his eyes too much, he would not be too much
of a trouble to find.”
“So no talking with the loud mouth and
his friends?” Gaara asked.
“You said it your self, loud mouth.
Naruto would probably bring on an earthquake with his voice, shouting her name
in the Hyuuga garden. That would most likely get her killed,” said Kakashi and
you could barely see a sad smile under his mask. “Naruto is too emotional in
this matter.”
“He’s got a kind heart, but a very
strong voice. That is not a good idea Gaara-san,” Kurenai agreed with the copy
ninja.
“What about her former team-mates,
Kiba-kun and Shino-kun?” asked Kurenai seconds later, her right forefinger
tapping her cheek. “Not Kiba-kun, he’s too emotional just as Naruto-kun, but you
could go to Shino-kun, he will perhaps be of help. He’s not a loud mouth like
Kiba-kun or Naruto-kun and he has a good and rational mind.”
“Shino as in Shino, the freaky bug-boy?”
asked Gaara. In his mind eyes he saw a young man in a large coat that covered
most of his face if he wished and black shades.
“Aburame, Shino… yes. But he’s very
reliable. Find him and talk to him.” said Kakashi as he rose to his feet. He
held out his hand to Kurenai and helped her up as well. “We meet here again in
five days. Good luck boys!!”
