...
Both of shizune and kuraiya were seen chatting about nonsense at the kitchen table, before they were interrupted.
"Arrrhh" kuraiya was the first to turn around and he saw shizuka yawning, "your up early, thought you'd be sleeping soundly for bit longer".
Shizuka sat down and placed her head on his shoulder "um, I've had enough rest" she closed her eyes, kuraiya put his arm around her waist "you want some coffee, it's the one you keep stealing from me" he showed a wry smile.
Shizuka opened her eyes again, turned to face kuraiya, then to the cup in his hand "I thought we were out of coffee" shizuka stared at kuraiya with squinted eyes.
Kuraiya who saw this, turned away his eyes soon started darting around, until they settled on shizune "ah, she brought it here, we got lucky really" he showed a smile as if he found an outlet to his lies.
Shizune who was drinking coughed it up, she spilled it over the table, the both who was sitting opposite to her, turned to each other.
Shizuka squintes her eyes further "be honest, you kept it hidden didn't you, there's no way shizune who came empty handed yesterday..." [I should probably keep that other bit on the down low.]
"Ahem, she was asleep after all" shizune who heard shizuka went quiet before blushing.
"Alright alright, I hid them, well it's to keep it for myself, after all they kept disappearing" he showed an annoyed expression, as if he already knows the culprits.
Shizuka turned her eyes away from kuraiya's, "it's not my fault, that coffee was grinded better than the others" shizuka spoke in a low voice and kuraiya heard it.
"So, you finally admitted to it, huh" he pinched her waist and shrugged, then he continued "but I'm still going to hide it in the future, it's my favorite after all".
Shizuka thought to herself [and now that I've heard, I'm gonna search for it.] Just as the group was in their silence, someone came over.
"I'm gonna head to the hospital, that kid named Lee, has been recovering well, but I've got a suspicion he'll start secretly training, shizune, let's go" tsunade walked over stretched and pulled shizune out of the room.
"Ah, wait let me drink the coffee, I can't keep it there" tsunade scoffed and retorted "leave it, you can buy a drink on the way" shizune slumped back, while being dragged away.
Shizuka watched as they went on their way to the hospital, then stared at the cup on the table.
Kuraiya nudged her and spoke "have it, we can't leave it for the sink, so drink it" shizuka leaned forward and started downing it quickly.
.
Tsunade side.
.
The two finally arrived at the hospital, when tsunade was about to open the door, "shizune the brats, just like I suspected, he's not here", shizune who was drinking a cup of tea, looked up "shall I check to see where he went".
Tsunade shouted "of course, you idiot, if he gets injured, that'll be even more work on my plate, so find him".
Shizune sighed and quickly disappeared, "damnit, I swear, if you get yourself injured don't blame me for paralyzing you" tsunade clenched her fists in frustration.
.
Hinata's side.
.
She had just gotten up and walked outside, "gine, come here, we're going to see Grandpa".
'Whoosh'
"Pa" hinata stood frozen then she heard kuraiya laughing "I was going to say something about this yesterday, but I was interrupted".
"Huh, ah right, my bad, I was a little drunk" kuraiya lifted up gine and walked over, he placed her on his shoulder and continued "I wonder, when you'll speak your own words" he put his finger under chin and scratched it he quickly passed her to hinata.
"Well, have fun today, tell your father and sister I said hi" kuraiya turned around and walked outside and bumped into Goku.
She watched as the two started chatting, while Goku was scratching his cheek and holding his nose, she heard him say to kuraiya before she walked away "hey kuraiya, mind if I have a senzu, I'm struggling to breath here".
She showed a smile and walked outside the house grounds.
It wasn't long till they reached hyuga residence, the guard's at the gate, made way with slight fear.
After all she beat them multiple times, just for saying wait at the gate.
She walked past them and found her way to the house, hanabi was seen training, and hiashi was seen drinking some tea, while watching hanabi train.
He sensed a presence behind him and stood up with alert "oh, it was just you, I thought it was an intruder, welcome back Hinata" hiashi had a serious face, but inside his heart was happiness and relief.
Gine jumped out of hinata's arms and floated towards hanabi, this shocked hiashi and he quickly turned his head towards hinata "what is this, since when could she fly".
He was about to go and grab the child, but was stopped by hinata's firm grip, "calm down" she had a smile, which scared him a little.
"Pa" hanabi who was training turned away from the wooden block, [what? How is that possible.] Hanabi flinched back in surprise watching the little girl float towards her.
Gine when she got closer, leaned her head back and sneezed, "achoo" luckily she faced upwards, cause a ki blast quickly came out of her mouth shooting upwards towards the sky.
A few seconds later a giant explosion was seen, the whole group swallowed hard, hinata was fine, she was used to it, the little girl had been doing this for over a week, like once a day.
The first time was when she aimed it downward towards the ground, luckily kuraiya was their and deflected it or else the house would've been destroyed.
Hiashi quickly spoke "that that, explosion, could that be what your husband can do" he showed slight fear especially if he was stronger than a babies accidental sneeze.
Hinata nodded and added "he told me, if he isn't careful the planet will be wiped clean" hiashi had cold sweat all over him [monster, such a monster is actually living in seclusion.]
He shook his head [thank God he doesn't have a weird complex, or others would be his playthings.]
Hiashi had an image in his head where kuraiya was sitting on a pile of bones while smiling evilly, with destruction everywhere.
He woke up from his stupor when he saw neji walk over to hanabi, and demanded a spar [neji, I thought you've given up on hating the main branch.]
"Hanabi, I demand you to challenge... Guhh!" Just as he was about to challenge hanabi, he was punched in the gut by gine, he took a few steps back before passing out with his eyes rolled back.
Once again the group was stunned, hiashi sat down and spoke with solemnity "if his child, is this strong, what about the others" the image of kuraiya sitting on a throne of bones quickly changed into his kids all stepping on others in their grown up state.
"Hahahaha, look at you, you weakling" hiashi shook his head again and thought [I should stop thinking like this, they won't be like that... Right?.]
Hinata sat down aswell and heard his words "well, they're after all, they're older than her" hiashi felt his heart clench and the image of them became clearer "I don't need a weakling to serve me, disappear" he saw the one with red eyes, blow to pieces a person like it was trivial.
"Father, what's wrong" Hinata stared at him with slight bewilderment, hiashi quickly put on a mask and replied "it's nothing, I should probably check on neji" he stood up and walked over.
.
Elsewhere in the land of rain.
.
There was a figure dressed in all black, checking on the Akatsuki organization, she sighed and left the area.
She was seen running back to konoha, she stopped running and turned around, "come out, I know you're there" she didn't pull out any weapons, she just stood there expressionless.
In the tree trunk a figure came out "huhu, you sensed me, I thought I'd mastered the art of hiding" he started waving his arms around exaggeratedly.
"Stop with the games, I know who you are Obito" the figure quickly stopped waving his arms and stood frozen for moment.
He slowly dropped them and spoke in Madara's voice "my, it seems my acting is so easily seen through or perhaps you already knew who I was before our encounter, was it a leak or simply luck".
She retorted angrily "a person who kills his own kin, doesn't deserve to speak in another uchiha's voice" she activated her mangekyō, and did a swerve, she quickly grabbed Obito's eye.
Obito had no clue of what just happened, he was just dumbfounded, he held his right eye in rage "impossible, impossible why couldn't I activate my kamui"
He saw his eye in the person's hand just disappear into thin air.
She spoke again "if you come to konoha, or even think about getting your other eye from kakashi, I'll take that too" she disappeared leaving Obito alone.
He stared in a baffled state before "aghhh! Don't let me know who you are, I swear I'll make you give me back what you took from me!" His face behind the mask became twisted with anger.
