Miyuki Hatake

Chapter 49

'Okay so there's only six now...Hinata,Lee, that sound ninja guy, Gaara, Choji and Neji...I wonder who's fighting who in the next round.' Miyuki thought while petting Riku. 'I wonder what kind of Jutsu The others can do?' She was deep in thought.

"Miyuki, you're really quiet? Oh it is because I was so awesome in my match that you don't know if That you'll win when you fight me?" Naruto said

An angry anime vein popped in Riku's head at hearing Naruto practically calling his owner weak, That Riku jumped out of Miyuki's arms and climb to the railings glaring at Naruto.

"Miyuki what's up with you're pet rat?"Naruto asked

Riku became irritated at Naruto's comment.

'Uh-oh, Naruto you better be careful.'Kakashi thought 'It looks like Riku doesn't like you.'

"Hey look!"Miyuki said looking at the screen the opponents for the next match was Hinata hyuuga vs Neji hyuuga.

The two walked to the center of the stage.

"I never thought that I'd face you in this match, said

"Nor I brother."Hinata said

"What'd she call him?!"Sakura said

"Brother?! Those two are brother and sister?!"Naruto exclaimed looking at them.

"No, they're not brother and sister."Miyuki said

"Miyuki is right, they're both descendants of the hyuuga clan one of the most ancient and Honorable families of the hidden leaf village not actually brother and sister." Kakashi explained

"Okay, but they're related somehow right?" Sakura asked

"Yeah they are related, They're cousins." Miyuki said

"And how would you know about that?" Naruto asked

"You're not the only person I hung out with back at the academy."Miyuki said "You were always out and doing you're own stuff anyway Hinata is from the main branch of the house hold while neji is from the side branch."

"But still they're family and they have to fight each other I feel for them, It must be hard."Sakura said Sakura glanced at miyuki she just watched the two, she saw a bit of sadness in miyuki's eyes. 'Oh...yeah...That mission from the land of waves...I think it's bringing back some bad memories to her...since we were fighting Zabuza and That boy...her cousin...' Sakura thought

"But it may not be as hard as it seems."Lee said

"What do you mean Lee? "Miyuki said

"It seems that for years now there's been some bad blood between the two families."Lee said

"And why is that?"Naruto asked

"I don't know, I never known the specifics." Lee said "But you know about the great bloodline traits from the ninja clans the Uchiha and the hyuuga , they have special techniques and abilities to those families, the firs generation of the hyuuga clan made all sorts of rules and decrees for the main branch of the family, it seems some branches of the family broke these rules."

"So...because of that there's tension between the branches?"miyuki said

"Yes."Lee said

"So this match is a family feud."Sakura said

Miyuki and the others looked at the match, Miyuki glanced at neji then at Hinata.

"They're about to start."Kakashi said

"All right you may begin when ready."Hayate said

"Before we do this a word of advice, Hinata listen to me withdraw now."neji said with a serious look in his face. "You know you were never meant to be a ninja, you're too kind and gentle, you seek harmony and avoid conflict."
