Naruto

"That cunning God is so annoying." Hinata was pouting when she said those words. She's been like that. These past few days, she been randomly sighing, murmuring some things, and pouting.

She kept on checking the windows, and even the door, I don't know why!

I don't know what her deal is, but I hope she's okay.

I was sleeping, resting, relaxing when a loud noise woke me up, then the next thing I knew is that men started barging inside Hinata's house and taking her things away. She's a small girl, and compared to those big ass bulky, muscle-ly men, she's no match.

I felt sad for not being able to help her. I'm just a mere puppy now, and I couldn't do a thing. They are so big and they can toss me everytime they wanted!

I was barking, angry at the man who lifted me up to show to his fellows, but Hinata immediately got my aid as she took me from them and gaze at everyone with anger in her eyes.

I wished . . . I wish I could do a thing to help Hinata.

The man with a cap— whom I thought was their leader— said that the house wasn't Hinata's property, and claim that it was owned by this Hiashi guy. Hinata was so inraged, she was so angru after hearing that name.

And there I thought we couldn't do a thing to fight for what's supposed to be hers but a surprise attack just came from nowhere.

And upon looking at the source of the powerful blow, my spine shivered and the memories os the past rushed into my mind.

"What the fuck is this?" his voice sounded that he could kill, and damn, in the past he really could kill.

Shit, I knew it.

He is Hamura Otsutsuki, Kaguya's brother.

The God of death.

Hinata

"Are you okay now?" My cousin— Neji, gently placed a glass of lukewarm water on the table, as he sat next to me to check on me.

"I'm fine . . . I'm not hurt at all."  I assured him with a smile which he returned afterwards.

We were silent for a while. He was kinda trying to calm himself down from what happened, and I just felt like not talking.

He was so cool that he managed to push those guys away using his authority. A single gaze, single word, single move and they moved like a rattled cowards, putting my things back in place and run away from his sight.

Well . . . He is Neji Hyuuga afterall. The known Neji Hyuuga.

"I will talk to father after this. I'm sure he is not aware of what happened and he won't like it once he learned about it either." He uttered.

"I think it will only add to his burdens if we tell him about this." I said with low voice while gazing at my lap.

"Hinata. Our father will know everything. So you can't hide a thing from him. Let's just say that I agree to keep this with you, but eventually, he will find out, and he will get upset once you learned that we are hiding something from him." He explained gently as thought I'm a little kid. "Do you know that he got upset because you haven't been going home for a while? for him, a message is not enough. He wanted to see if you're okay."

I just nodded by his words. I felt a little bit guilty making them feel that way.

"Rest assure that I'll visit him sooner or later." I smiled at him which got his piercy eyes to soften.

"Yeah . . . and Hanabi missed you too. I missed you too."

"It's the same here."

He chuckled.

Then later on, his eyes rested on the sight of Bolt who was sitting on the couch just on the other side beside me.

"So you have a pet. I didn't now."

I gazed at him, then Bolt who was alsp staring straight at him like they have a staring contest.

"Kiba dropped him here, so I took care of him." I touched Bolt who was still in a staring competition with my cousin.

"Seems like he likes you."

"The feeling is mutual . . . I guess."

"And he looked like Kiyo." He commented which got me smiling.

"Yeah, I loved that coincident."

"Seems like he's a smart puppy." He said, I gazed at him who was staring at Bolt and it's almost like the two are communicating by the eyes. I don't know what their deal is.

"I think so too." I just said and stood up. "I will prepare some meal. Will you sleep here? I will clean the extra room."

"Let me help you do the cooking, I will also clean the room myself."

"No, it's fine."

"But I will clean the room myself."

I chuckled. "Do as you wish, sire!" With that, I went to the kitchen, leaving him and Bolt together in the living room.

Naruto

A single gaze, a single word, even a mere groan sounds so majestic. This guy, Neji Hyuuga, is the God of death, the feared God, the heartless God, the strong God of death.

And also, he is Kaguya's brother.

Now . . . he is here infront of me, in his slender human form. Gazing at me as if he knew me, showing his superior aura, and sending anxiety of the things he might do to Hinata.

Why is he here?

Why and How is he Hinata's relative?

Did he know me? ohh . . . I'm sure he do.

What will he do now?

Calm down Naruto . . .

We used to fight before, not just becker, but fight with swords, bloods, wounds, and almost death. Curse each other, break each other's bone, burn each other's shrine and more. Those were the good days by the way.

And . . . in my form now, he could just choke me to death and violah! I'd be gone forever! He could break this house, or hurt Hinata or worse—

"I smell fear."

I frozed hearing those words. I slowly gazed at him who was casually sitting down as if he don't take lives. He lies his back on the couch, crossing his arms as if he is relaxing.

"Seems like you smelled your own feelings." I was surprised that I heard those words from my own voice. I checked on myself and saw that I came back in my original form again.

Damn!

"Hah!" I heard a chuckle from beside me, only seeing the God of death also turned to his original form, A white long luscious hair, super pale skin, big body, and piercing white eyes.

"Naruto Uzumaki, it's been a long damn time, isn't it?" his original voice, it sounds like a growl of an animal ready to devour me.
