A/N: Sorry dear readers. I decided to restart the whole story as I couldn't find the previous one. Probably deleted or something XD. Anyways, Enjoy! ^_^

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am Hinata Hyuga. Currently 14 years old. Purpose to live is to serve Konohagakure and the heir to the Hyuga household.

It hurts...

What happened?

Oh yeah, I remember now...

I was training with Neji nii-san

Then I fainted due to lack of chakra and strength to continue.

Why am I so inferior?

Why can't I be as strong as Hanabi or Neji nii-san?

I need to train... I will make my friends acknowledge me one day!

Especially Naruto-kun...

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

I woke up to find myself in the Konoha Hospital.

"Oh I see you are awake." A voice said.

"S-Sakura-chan?" I asked.

"You arm isn't badly damaged. But it would be appreciated if you try not to force yourself too much, ne?" Sakura replied, false smiling.

"H-Hai..." was what I answered her.

"S-Sakura-chan, I-I can tell t-that something h-happened. P-please d-do tell me i-if you'd l-like to.I-I won't force y-you if you don't want to s-say it..." I asked her, trying to be as polite as I can.

It actually hurts me to see my friends holding up all their sadness in themselves. Though a true shinobi should not show their emotions, but I guess I'm just... me.

"Arigato Hinata, it is true that I am sad. It's because I feel really... left out. Ever since Sasuke came back with Team Taka, Karin had been spreading false rumours about me! Causing Naruto and the rest to ignore me and look at me with so many different emotions in their eyes... hate, disgust, anger, betrayal. Shouldn't I be the one feeling betrayed?" With that, tears started rolling down Sakura's cheeks. She gently wipes them away.

"Sakura-chan, don't cry. I will always be here for you if you need me. Y-you can trust me!" I suddenly realised stuttered lesser.

''Mm! Arigato Hinata. I shall tell you a secret. Meet me tomorrow outside my house after you are discharged, okay?" Sakura asked.

"Okay!"I replied cheerfully.

At this moment, Konoha 12 came in. When they saw Sakura, they just ignored her. Sakura just turned towards the door and gave me a smile before leaving the room.

"Are you okay, Hinata? Did she do anything bad to you? Hey! Don't copy me! I asked her first!" Kiba-kun and Naruto-kun yelled in unison.

"U-Uh...I'm okay Naruto-kun, Kiba-kun! Sakura healed my hand so I can move it much more than before. I was told not to force myself too much, so I won't be able to train for a few days..." I smiled awkwardly to ensure them.

I still can't believe they don't trust Sakura! What kind of friends are they?!

"I-I'd like to r-rest a while m-more, you guys c-can head b-back first. T-thanks for c-coming, again!" I said.

A couple of "rest wells" and "byes" were heard after that.

Not long after, I heard a few other footsteps. The door open to reveal...

"Oto-sama, Hanabi-chan." I tried to lift myself up to greet him, who just came in.

"Stay down Hinata. You aren't in the condition to move around yet." He replied.

"S-sorry, oto-sama." I apologized, still bowing my head.

"You really are a troublesome girl. Can't you be more like your little sister? She trains so hard everyday yet never once did she ever hurt herself as much as you did now!" He exclaimed.

"I-I'm r-really sorry Oto-sam-" I was about to finish when he cut me off.

"Just rest well and recover soon. You won't want to be a burden to the family or your team do you?" He explained.

"Y-yes, oto-sama." I replied.

With that, he left the room together with Hanabi. Smirking together as they do so.

His words keep echoing in my mind. You don't want to be a burden to the family or you team do you? Burden......Burden......Burden

I grabbed my head to stop those words that pierce through me like a thousand needles from repeating and fell back onto the bed.

'I'm not a burden. Why does he have to hurt my feelings everytime he talks to me? I just want to start a new life.'

Third Person's POV

A figure stood by the window, smirking, peeking at the girl lying on the bed. It whispered: Be careful what you wish for, girl.

And then, it disappeared.
