Lost Control

Chapter 41 - Improve yourself

Sasuke's POV

"You are still weak. Your opponent would easily kill you," said Kaiji. Shut up! I know that!"

"Your sage mode is not complete. You need to concentrate better." Concentrate... Concentrate... I meditated on a rock. I have to get that Sage mode. To do that, I have to meditate all day. I wonder if Itachi would have it yet. He's really a genius.

Suddenly purple eyeshadows began to appear on my eyes. But not just on my eyes. It was like a tattoo running through my whole body. I felt stronger.

"Good, now you are able to get the snake sage mode. Snakes will be your only friends. Don't forget. If you betray them, they will poison your closest ones. Even your brother." I knew it wouldn't be that easy. After all, these are snakes. Not stupid toads. I felt light. Like I have no weight.

"All right, I can now teach you special techniques for Sage mode."

Hinata's POV

They took him right in front of my eyes. There was nothing that I could do...

And I already felt that he was changing. It would definitely work. Naruto-kun, are you all right? I haven't heard from you in a long time. I can't receive any information from Hozuki Castle. At least Sakura-chan was here with me, supporting me in everything.

"Don't worry, Hinata. Naruto is strong. I'm sure he'll get out of the Hozuki Castle! Shannaro!"

"You are so nice, Sakura-chan!"

"Well, Sasuke-kun is gone too. I don't know where... And I don't know if he's all right. I understand your feelings. You know, I really love him. And I want be here for him. But how when he's gone?"

"I feel the same way, Sakura-chan. Naruto-kun is not a bad guy. But his power took over him. That's why his personality changed. And in those days with him, I knew it was still Naruto-kun that we all love. I wish everyone understood. Mainly Neji-nii-san." He never reconciled himself to my love for him. He was always angry with me.

"Well, I think he just wants to protect you, Hinata. Naruto is still dangerous. He was really worried about you when you were gone. You should have seen his reaction." She giggled.

"Really? Maybe I should talk to him..." She nodded.

"Well, Ino is waiting for me. She wanted to train her healing jutsu. Take care, Hinata!"

"T-take care, Sakura-chan!" Why am I still so shy? They are so nice to me...

Well, I should train too. I want my family to be proud of me. And accept me for who I am. Maybe I should visit Naruto-kun's step siblings. It was so nice of him. He didn't want them to have the same sad life like him...

Unfortunately, after his arrest, they had to go to an orphanage. But they can go to academy. If they want to be ninjas. But I'm sure they want. They want to protect their loved ones.

I was looking for Neji-nii-san. I have to ask him for training.

"Neji-nii-san!"

"Hinata-sama, what is it?"

"I just... I just wanted to ask you for training. I admit that I'm weak. I couldn't do anything with Naruto-kun's arrest. I want to be stronger!"

"Don't tell me you are doing this just because of him. If so, then I'm not interested."

"Please, Neji-nii-san! If were stronger, you wouldn't have to protect me anymore!"

"Hmm, that's right. All right, I don't mind training you. With what do you need help?"

"Kaiten, my kaiten is still weak. And it's important for defense. I want to improve it."

"Kaiten, that's it. All right, watch me!" Neji-nii-san showed me the right pose for Kaiten. He concentrated his strength in himself, then released it and spun like a spinning top. This created an impenetrable shield. It was perfect. Unlike mine, which still has gaps.

"Now it's your turn!" I nodded. I did the same thing he did, but I couldn't keep up.

"Concentrate!" I tried, but it was no help.

"Hinata-sama, I don't think this style works for you. You should try your own style."

"Own style? But my father always taught me this..."

"But that's wrong. You are different from me, so you have to have your own style. But you have to find it to improve your kaiten. When you do, your defense will be better than mine. That's the destiny." I smiled.

"Thank you, Neji-nii-san."

"That was nothing." I decided to go training to the lake. There I can find my own style...

I didn't want to keep you waiting that long and I decided to write something. I hope you liked the chapter and that I didn't mess something up. 😅😅
