Byakugan Princess: The Cursed Jewel [Book 1]

Part 28

"P-pr-p-preg-pregnant?!?" Tenten said while breathing nervously. "This can't be serious! I can't I mean, there must be a mistake!!"

"Sorry Tenten, but it's true" Sakura said. "I felt the baby's chakra"

Tenten stood there staring at nothing. "A Hyuga baby..."

"Tenten, what are you gonna do now?" Ino asked. "We have a mission to do if we want to win the war"

"Crap, Tenten tomorrow we part to the Uchiha lands. You two will be in danger!!" Temari said.

"The baby will not stop me from my duties!" Tenten snapped. "I am Dragon's eye and this baby doesn't limit me from completing this mission."

"Tenten, it's not only your baby, it's Neji's!" Sakura said. "Whether is an accident or not it doesn't matter. This is not just a normal baby, it's a Hyuga one. It has royal blood so Neji deserves to know about it!"

"What I said it's final Sakura! I will complete this mission no matter what it takes" said Tenten before sighing. "Neji will know about the baby...at the right time but from now on I don't wanna hear a word about this topic."

The threee girls looked at Tenten with pity and left the room. As Tenten closed the door she put a hand on her flat belly while tears falled through her eyes.

"A baby.." she said before she remembered what happened to her family. "I'm so stupid! It's a Hyuga, how did I let this happen? I can't have this baby!"

She cried on her bed. "What am I gonna do now?"

----------------------------------------------------------

"My lord, the Kazekage's on it's way for the meeting" said Shisui Uchiha.

"Hn." Fugaku said. "Prepare the prisoners. I want them to see who's really more powerful here."

"Hai!" he said while leaving.

"Father, why did you planned this meeting today?" asked Sasuke with annoyance. "Today's my coronation"

"I know what I'm doing Sasuke" he said. "You'll see once they're here"

"They?"

"There are rumors that the Byakugan Princess will marry the Kazekage soon. But of course, with the war coming up I don't think it'll be that useful for Sunagakure."

Sasuke nodded, thinking about the Hyuga princess. "That move is useless if she thinks she'll get back her kingdoom." he said while smirking.

Meanwhile the Kazekage and his men entered the Uchiha borders and went to the castle.

"Are you okay Hinata?" Gaara asked while holdig her fiancée's hand.

"I just hope that my sister's okay" she said while staring at the castle. "This place...brings me back those memories"

"You're not alone this time" Gaara replied before they stopped at the main entrance of the castle.

Suddenly, Uchiha Shisui approached the sand men. "Ah, what do we have here? The Byakugan Princess came back from the dessert lands."

"Uchiha Shisui." Gaara said coldly. "We have a meeting to attend."

"I know, I know, I'm assigned to escort your personally to the King's office but first you must attend the coronation" he said caughting everyone by surprise.

"Coronation?" Hinata asked while they were escorted to the ceremony.

"Sasuke Uchiha will take place as the new King of the Uchiha Clan" Shisui said. "Kazekage-sama, princess, this are your seats."

As Shisui left them Hinata turned back to the red head. "This is dangerous Gaara-kun. We shouldn't have come here.."

"Let me think of something" he replied while cursing the moment he chose to come. They were at the main hall, alog with many important members of the Uchiha Clan.

Suddenly a man came from the entrance, annpucing the arrival of the main family.

"Stand up! The Main Family of the Uchiha Clan has arrived!" said one man while everyone stood up and greeted them.

Fugaku and Mikoto walked first, followed by Sasuke Uchiha. Gaara frowned, worried because of Itachi's absense.

"Fellow members of this legendary clan. The Uchiha's have been blessed with many rulers through all time, including myself." said Fugaku. "Today, it will be remembered as the last day of my legacy because from now on, our paths must be guided by my son's wisdom.."

Fugaku turned to his wife who took his crown. Now it was the time for Mikoto to speak.

"With this crown and the power of my bloodline, I, Uchiha Mikoto grant you Uchuha Sasuke, the title of King of the Uchiha Empire." she said while crowning his son. "From now on our destiny's will be settled by your decisions and our legacy will be determined by your power and will of hatred!"

All the men cheered long live he new King while Hinata and Gaara watched the moment nervously. Soon they saw how a prisoner was brought to the hall with her face covered.

"Who are they?" Hinata asked.

"Sasuke, this is the final proof" Fugaku said. "Show us your bravery by ordering the execution of this traitior"

Sasuke looked at the first prisoner and smirked. She was trembling hard.

"Show me her face" Sasuke said while one man did what he was told.

It was Karin Uzumaki.

"You committed treason to the Uchiha Clan. You did not care of all the care we took for you since the day you arrived" he said coldly. "Any words to say beofre you final punishment."

Karin took this as a demand more than a question and looked around. She spotted Mikoto for a while before looking at where Hinata was. She tried to turn around and looked her sadly.

"I'm sorry, you'r sister...couldn't make it" she said while Hinata gasped. She almost fainted but Gaara hold her on time.

"Hn." Sasuke said. "Off with her head"

Karin was forced to kneel down, looking at the people who as staring at her. She stared at everyone before gaining some determination.

"Curse you Uchihas and long live the Uzumaki Empire dattebane!!"

And then her head got cut.
