Being older was nothing special. I spent 4 days a week training my dad's regimen he keeps making for me and 1 day a week secretly working on my personal training.

My training from dad gets harsher and harsher. He trains me mercilessly in the gentle fist as well as the addition to kunai and shuriken. I'm not necessiraily good at weaponry, but I'm not terrible. I can hit the targets but can never hit the center. Since hyuuga dont specialize in weaporny I would probably need somebody else to make me a master. Father doesn't worry about that as much as my Taijutsu so I have to learn it on my own too if i want to get better faster.

The rigorous training has been paying off and I am now a master at basic gentle fist. Dad has decided to start training me to learn some head family moves now like air palms and 8 Trigrams 64 Palms. He said I have to wait to turn 4 for him to truly teach me the techniques so he has just been giving me things to prepare myself for it like chakra control exercises, growing my reserves,  an extended variety of katas, as well as upping my speed training.

I've been training myself alone in my own fighting style. I train hard at timing my release of chakra in my attacks so I don't have a repeat of breaking my wrist. I still haven't perfected my timing, but it's so much better and now I only end with bruises and bloody knuckles. I also have been researching ninjustu and have decided I am going to wait until I go to the academy for real ninjutsu because I don't want to kill myself attempting one.

And I need a teacher to get me chakra paper. I don't want my dad to know quite yet about my own studies. All he knows is I train alone but he doesn't need to know on what. He might not like a Hyuuga not using Hyuuga styles all the time.

About 10 months after my birthday, I began to notice how I've never been let out of the clan compound. I never noticed it before because I was so worried about my training, but when I finally did, its all I can see. I know my parents aren't the most sociable and are very wary of other peoples actions but come on. I wanna leave. The only way I can remotely help people is if I leave so I have been making plans to leave the compound one way or another.

The first few times I brought it up to my parents to let me outside, they brushed it off saying I'm not old enough. Damn it, I'm old enough to train, I'm old enough to go outside. At 4, I finally managed to convince my mom to take me outside the compound and into the town with her by promising that I will let her enroll me into some girly classes to make me more feminine.

We finally left the compound, and I was so excited I was shaking. Mom took it as nerves and picked me up. Cuddling into her, I let her hold me for a little while I enjoy her warmth. As soon as we got into town, I had her put me down and she did, but held onto my hand tightly to not lose me. Konoha is truly beautiful.

The sun was shining bright and all of the buildings and stands along the streets gave it a really peaceful and homey feel. Walking along the streets I could hear the women on the street cooing at how adorable I am. Mother walked me along smiling down at me as I looked at everything in awe, my eyes shining brightly. I looked up and I saw the coolest thing ever. The Hokage Monument. It's HUGE!

"Mama its all of the Hokage. They are amazing! I want to be strong like them someday!" I all but shouted smiling widely at her.

"At this rate I'm sure you will" my mom said chuckling and smiling fondly at me.

We took a few more steps when the most beautiful smell entered my nose. I looked around for it and saw that its coming from a little dango cafe. Dango yes, I've always wanted to try dango especially since so many people in the show were obsessed with it. Tugging on my mom's sleeve, I gave her the puppy dog eyes and begged her to take me to get dango.

We walked into the little cafe and mom went to order us some dango as I found us a table. This place is cute. I heard people come in so I looked back and choked on air at who I saw. Walking into the dango shop were Shisui Uchiha, Itachi Uchiha, and Sasuke Uchiha.

These three people are some of the people at the top of my list on who I want to help. Shisui and Itachi were both given terrible cards at life and I'm dertermined to do something about it. And Sasuke, I hated him in the show. He was such an arrogant emo prick. As much as I hated him, I understand why he was so sad. I'm determined that even if I can't save the fate of the clan, I will save Sasuke and make sure he is not alone. I will befriend him or at least make him not go crazy like he did before. I will help prevent some of the darkness from his heart.

Being the person I am, I waited for them to order and sit down before I got up. I told mom that I was going to the bathroom and she let me go. I walked over to their table and they all looked at me. Sasuke with a frown probably thinking I'm a fangirl or something at the ripe old age of 4. Itachi and Shisui shared knowing looks and looked between me and Sasuke. Turning away from Sasuke, I looked at Shisui who gave me a slight surprised look at this turn out. I bowed and began to speak.

"Hi, my name is Hinata Hyuuga. You're Shisui Uchiha right? I know because I'm a huge fan of how how can use the body flicker technique so good. I can never figure it out." Shisui gave a laugh and before he could speak I turned to Itachi. "And you, you're Itachi Uchiha, child prodigy and heir to the clan. I know how that feels because I'm a prodigy too (not really but nobody would believe me if I explained why I was ahead of the game already) and I'm also heir to the Hyuuga clan. It kinda sucks but atleast I get to do lots of cool training! I would like for Shisui-san to train me in body flicker and for Itachi-sama to train me in shuriken jutsu. If I can to prove myself to you, I would like for you to take me on as an apprentice." When I finished all three of them looked at me wide eyed before Shisui smiled and began to laugh loudly.

"I like you Hinata-hime you got guts to ask us. As for the prodigy part, we'll see about that wont we. I accept to your proposition." I smiled at Shisui and turned to itachi expectantly. He was emotionless and said a "Hn" which Shisui told me means yes. I was basically jumping for joy and turned to leave when Sasuke stopped me, pouting with his arms crossed.

"What the heck Aniki, you always tell me later but you're going to train this weak fangirl." Sasuke whined childishly, his big dark eyes watery as he glared at Itachi.

"Who is a fangirl, duckbutt?" I replied pouting. Damn he's already an ass.

"You. You're just a fangirl trying to impress me and Aniki like the others." He responded dryly, looking to Itachi for confirmation.

"Hey Duckbutt it sounds more like your jealous of me than anything else. Scared that your precious Aniki will favor me because of my skills being better than yours?" I taunted with a smirk. Itachi watched with amusement, and Shisui had a shit-eating grin on his face.

"W-What no I'm not jealous. I can beat you, you're just a weak girl." Sasuke whined. Putting on a huge grin, I asked:

"Care to put that to the test? I was going to wait until after Dango to fight you three but I guess now works. But first I have to tell my mother." We all stood up and went over to my mom. With my best puppy eyes, and some help from Itachi, we convinced her to let us go and come pick me up here in 6 hours.

They took me to the Uchiha clan training grounds and had Sasuke and I do the seal of confrontation. I jumped back immediately, avoiding Sasuke's wild punch. Wanting to end it and fight the others, I crouched down and launched myself looking like I was going for a punch before I Flipped in mid air, put my hands on Sasuke's shoulders and threw him to the ground, Immediately pushing into a back handspring to land on top of him, and I locked his body with a few pressure points. I sat on Sasuke grinning down at him smugly at his scowl beofre I tapped a few points and allowed him to move again. I looked over to Itachi and Shisui who were both looking at me in surprise. Sasuke stalked off and sat at the sidelines as Itachi stood up to come fight me.

"Are you ready Itachi Uchiha. I will not hold back and I expect you to not hold back, even if it means using Sharingan" I said firmly, the intent not being what I wanted with my chubby cheeks.

"Yes. I will not hold back" At that We formed the seal of confrontation and jumped back putting space between us. Itachi activated his 2 tomotoe Sharingan and watched me. I I activated my Byakugan and rushed at Itachi. Moving faster than he expected he barely moved out of the way of my first attack.

Not giving him time to create an offense, I kept attacking relentlessly only hitting him once in the shoulder, but not in any vital points, just a very painful Tenketsu point. He grunted and landed a hit to my stomach that sent me skidding back, clutching my stomach and coughing.

I looked up at him grinning. This is fun. I can tell why hes such a prodigy becuase after a few more minutes of back and forth he began to see the patterns in my gentle fist finding counters too quick for me to beat him. If I continue like this I'd lose so I its time to unleash Olympic-style. If I land a successful chakra fueled hit, at this age he should go down. But thats a big if.

I blocked a kick to my head and jumped back while switching my stance with my landing. Itachi looked suspicious at my stance and I could tell he was assessing on what style I was using, as well as looking to see all of the chakra gathering to my hands and feet. I began to attack him, this time landing more hits while simultaneously dodging with the use of my superior flexibility and style. He would think I would hit one place befpre I would twist to hit somewhere different. I'd go for a punch but land a kick, then switch back to actually using a punch.

Each move was different and I could tell I was frusturating him with my new style of taijustu. Knowing he couldn't beat me hand to hand with my flips, twists and seemingly random attacks, Itachi jumped back and began performing hand signs. I knew what was coming so I stood and waited, coating my body in a thin layer of chakra hoping that my plan will work.

I jumped through the fireball and Itachi's eyes widened as he jumped up, but beause he was not ready, I landed a punch to his gut, releasing chakra on impact, and sent him hurtling to the ground creating a mini crater. I landed beside him panting heavily and looked down to see my clothes burned and small burns littering across my body, it hurt. Itachi slowly got up from the ground, nodding, it was over. Shisui was looking between Itachi and I, mouth wide "I win...kind of!" The I collapsed from the pain of the burns and being so tired from the fight.

Shisui flickered over to me catching me and walked me over to Itachi who was slowly getting out of his crater, blood dripping down his chin, then shot his head to his left where Sasuke was. I looked over to what made Itachi and Shisui so tense and my eyes widened as I saw Fugaku Uchiha standing next to Sasuke with a glare that rivaled my fathers. I tensed too before having Shisui put me down. I slowly made my way to Fugaku and bowed before him.

"Uchiha-sama. I apologize for destroying your training ground during my spar with Itachi-sama. I am Hinata Hyuuga heiress to my clan. I accept any punishments you would like to bestow upon me but do not put this on the Hyuuga name, this was srictly my decision to earn Training from Itachi-sama and Shisui-san in Shuriken and body flicker." 

I straightened myself and looked Fugaku straingt in the eye trying not to flinch from his stern gaze, before he replied with

"Hn. Follow me." Doing what he said, I was surprised when he led me to his home instead of to my death. That might be coming though.
