My Belated Apology - Hyuga Neji x OC Fanfiction

Chapter 11

A/N: Hello, I'm back :D Is it exhausted to wait for me? I'm sorry guys! Here is the new chapter! Happy enjoy <3 Thank you all for supporting me!!

Shiyuki's POV

Hinata sheepishly gives Naruto a box of medical cream. Looking at Hinata and Naruto smiling, Neji-kun is drown in anger. This is bad... If Neji-kun and Hinata get in a match... I don't dare to imagine any further.
Hinata goes downstair to give her ally the same. Kiba tells her to forfeit if she meets the Sand boy or Neji-kun. That's absolutely the thing I want to tell her.

Unfortunately, the next match is Hinata vs Neji-kun.
I'm scared for her.

"You don't make a good shinobi... Forfeit now! You are too kind. You wish for harmony and avoid conflict. You agree with others, never resisting."
Hinata avoids his gaze, says that she wanted to challenge herself.
"Hinata-sama, as I thought, you are a spoiled brat of the main family. People cannot change themselves! Losers are losers. Their personality and strength will not change."

I'm completely pissed off. Just one year ago, you considered me a failure, and now you grow some respect toward me, at least as a comrade? How will you explain about this?! I changed! I turned to be stronger! Ok, just continue with your destiny thing, and you will never improve.
Neji-kun, wake up!

He continues to teach his cousin about fate or something, that she can't change, that he's seen it all, blah blah. He analyses Hinata's gestures to claim that she is horrified. With his Byakugans on, he makes a declaration.

"You can't change your-"
"YOU CAN!!!"

Blonde, you say my thought out loud.
"Stop deciding things about people! Idiot! Kick that bastard's ass, Hinata!!!"
Having heard Naruto's cheer, Hinata's eyes change. Her decision changes. She changes.
She activates her Byakugans, then gets into the Hyuga style stance.
"Neji-niisan, we fight!"

Go for it, Hinata!

After some palms, Hinata is able to land a touch on Neji-kun's stomach. She got him?!
I know how the Gentle Fist works, just a mere gentle touch can lead to a critical injury. Hinata seems to be in control, but Neji-kun is not called genius for nothing.
Beside me, Naruto and Sakura have questions about the inner coils system. I want to watch the match carefully, so I let Lee explain. Down there, Hinata tries to land a palm on Neji-kun, but gets hit on her chest. Blood flows from her mouth.

Hinata...

Another attack is sent to Neji-kun's face, but he quickly dodges it and blocks Hinata's arm chakra points. Those red dots prove that her Gentle Fist is now useless.
Neji-kun keeps blabbing about Hinata's weakness, then orders her to give up. But no, Hinata stands up, not going back on her words.

Nevertheless, she coughs abundant of blood. This match is already over... If she goes any further, I'm afraid that she'll get killed. Hinata still tries to land some useless attacks to get more hit from Neji-kun. She collapses. Hinata, don't push yourself...
Gekko is about to declare the winner, but Naruto cuts him off. To our surprise, Hinata stands. Her eyes...

That's enough, Hinata. You've grown much stronger. Now takes some rest...

"The person lost and suffering within the destiny of the main and branch houses is you."
That's the truth, which triggers the Hyuga boy.
All the jonins jump down to stop him from swatting the poor girl to death. Hinata falls on her knees. Oh my, it'd be a miracle that she could make it through... I run downstair with Lee, Naruto and Sakura.

With my ability, I can just heal her to temporarily stop the effect. Hold on...
Neji-kun doesn't notice my glare as Naruto gets his attention. Naruto runs toward my comrade to get stopped by Lee.
Hell no... I can't stop it... This is much more serious than mine... I look at Kurenai-sensei in pure fear. She quickly checks her student's heartbeat, then calls the medical team.

Naruto's fist is stained with Hinata's blood. That's the promise to win against Neji-kun. 

"The next match: Akai Shiyuki vs Ami!!"
