Naruto : Back to the Past

Chapter 11: Chapter 11:- Old Classmates



Naruto held Hinata's hand and slowly walked toward the Hyuya Clan district. Naruto wasn't afraid of anyone. He wasn't afraid of what others were going to think if they saw the Princess of the Hyuga clan walking in the street while holding arms with a nameless blond-haired young man. In fact, Naruto wanted rumors to spread that Lady Hinata was in a relationship with Naruto. 

'In this world or the other world, in every world, you belong to me Hinata.' Naruto firmly grasped her hand and looked at her as he thought of these words. 

Hinata also looked at Naruto before she blushed and lowered her head. Facing his bold stare, Hinata felt like a frightened rabbit. 

'Naruto-kun's hand feels so warm.' Hinata shyly thought. She wanted to keep holding his hand forever. Unfortunately, that wasn't possible anymore as without even realizing it, they had reached the Hyuga Clan's district.

"So this is it." Hinata felt disappointed when Naruto let go of her hand. 

"Yeah.....!!!" Hinata looked at the ground and nodded her head. 

"Hinata, I will see you tomorrow." Hinata raised her head and saw him grinning. It was his trademark grin. To Hinata, Naruto was the bright was the Sun in the sky. He was so full of positive energy that just his presence made her day better. She felt more confident just being with him. She felt inspired by him, she felt encouraged by him, and she felt motivated by him...in short words, Naruto was her Sun. 

Swoosh!!!

Naruto disappeared from Hinata's view. 

After Naruto left, a small smile appeared on her face as she put her right palm on her heart and listened to her beating heart. Her heart was beating really fast. 

"Naruto-kun.....what is this feeling?" Hinata asked herself. 

Unknown to Hinata, a certain pair of Byakugan was watching from the distance. Unfortunately, neither Hinata nor Naruto was able to sense it. 

Hinata stood there for some sometime before she returned back to her Mansion. Along the way, many Hyuga clan members who saw her bowed their heads and greeted the Princess. Hinata replied back with a polite nod before she continued towards the Mansion.

Meanwhile, 

"So My daughter was walking with the blond-haired young man?" Hiashi asked his subordinate. 

Hiashi was the current Patriarch of the Hyuga Clan. The Hyuga clan has two branches. There is the main house and there is the Branch house. The Branch house served the Main house. The Hyuga clan always had this division between them for as long as one could remember. 

Hiashi was born only seconds before his twin brother Hizashi, making Hiashi the head of the Hyūga clan and Hizashi a member of the branch house, whose only purpose in life would be to protect members of the main house. 

Hiashi has long black hair and featureless white eyes like all members of his clan. Currently, he was wearing very traditional, loose-fitting robes with a long-sleeved, brown haori.

Hiashi was currently listening to the reports from his subordinate. As soon as Hinata, the Hyuga clan's Princess was seen with a boy of her age, the matter was immediately reported to Hiashi. 

"Yes!!! Lady Hinata was even holding hands with this young man?" The subordinate was from the Branch House. 

Hearing this Hiashi frowned slightly before his expression returned to normal. "Thank you for your report. You can take your leave now." The man who was kneeling before Hiashi disappeared along with the wind leaving Hiashi completely alone in his room. 

"Interesting. Just who is this boy?" Earlier, his subordinate had reported Kushina walking on the streets of Konoha with a blond-haired young man. All these things made Hiashi really curious about Naruto. 

'I really hope this boy will change this daughter of mine.' Hiashi had no choice but to name Hanabi who was Hinata's twin sister as the next clan head. This was because not only Hanabi was more talented than Hinata but also her attitude was really different from Hinata's. 

The main problem was with Hinata's character. His daughter was too shy. Hinata was just too modest. As the princess of the Hyuga clan, Hinata should be more like her sister Hanabi who was more bold, and more courageous. Hinata did not have the qualities of a leader.

It wasn't that Hiashi was being biased and was favoring Hanabi. It wasn't like that at all. Hiashi equally loved both of his daughters. However, from the point of being the Patriarch of the Hyuga clan, Hanabi was more suited. 

However, this did not mean that Hiashi had completely given up on Hinata. It was rather the opposite. He tried to change Hinata but he failed. After the death of Hinata's mother, Hiashi felt that the distance between him and his daughters had increased. 

This is why he really hoped that Naruto could change Hinata to someone better.

Scene change_____ 

Next morning,

It was a new day in the village of Hidden Leaf. 

"Waking up for morning classes....sigh!!! What a Drag!!!!" A young man from the Nara clan was sitting on the bench with his arms behind his head. He was feeling extremely sleepy. He could barely keep his eyes open. If not for his mother's violent beating, then he probably would have missed school today. 

"Yeah, I totally agree with you. By the way, do you want potato chips?" Choji asked. Choji was a chubby young man from the Akimichi clan. 

"Nah, I am good. How do you even have the appetite to eat something so oily and greasy so early in the morning?" Shikamaru lazily asked. After eating something like this so early in the morning, Shika didn't think he would feel good for the rest of the day. 

"I don't know. I love Potato Chips." As soon as Choji answered, they noticed a blond-haired girl entering their classroom. 

Ino was like the princess of her clan, the Yamanaka family. The three clans, Yamanaka, Nara, and Akimichi, had a tradition of being close. Their parents were all best friends and since they were kids, so naturally, Ino, Shika (Shikamaru), and Choji ended up being just as close as their families had been.

"Hey there, Ino!!!" Choji greeted her cheerfully, holding up a potato chip in greeting before popping it into his mouth.

Ino walked over to where Choji and Shikamaru were hanging out. They always chose the seats at the very back of the class – the spots where the kids who liked to stay out of the spotlight sat.

"Morning to you too, Choji, Shika!" Ino replied, her smile bright and welcoming.

"Wow, Ino! You seem really cheery today," Shikamaru commented, his voice was lazy and bored as always.

"You could say that. Yesterday, I defeated that Billboard Brow. Man, it felt great." Remembering the look that Sakura had on her face, Ino couldn't help but smile. 

'Do I even want to know what these two were fighting about?' Shikamaru lazily thought. 

'Nah!!! I am good. I don't want to listen to any drama so early in the morning. Maybe I should have bunked School today.' Shika thought as he closed his eyes. He wanted to sleep for a while before the teacher arrived. 

Choji just kept eating potato chips while listening to Ino. He also didn't wish to know any details. Choji preferred to stay out of any drama. He considered himself to be a viewer who enjoyed all the drama in the class. 

"By the way, Ino, have you studied for the test?" Asked Choji. Since they were going to graduate in 180 days (in 6 months' time), the number of tests that they are getting has increased. 

"Yeah, I have. What about you?" Ino asked. 

Sigh!!!!

Choji just sadly sighed and shook his head. Last time Choji was having a competition with his father to see who could eat the most amount of Ramen. And sadly, he lost that challenge. He completely forgot about the test. 

Shikamaru was listening to their conversation but he was too lazy to add any comments. Ino and Choji both knew this. They had long gotten used to Shikamaru's character. 

While they were talking about the test, a few others entered the classroom. 

It was a pink-haired girl walking alongside two Princesses of the Hyuga clan. As soon as they entered the classroom, they became enter of attention mainly because of Ino and Sakura. It was known that Ino and Sakura were bitter rivals and enemies yet there were times when these two could be best friends. But one thing everyone in the class has to admit was that it was fun to watch these two argue. 

Seeing Sakura, Ino proudly folded her arms under her chest and looked at Sakura with a smirk. Sakura was annoyed by that proud smirk of hers but there was nothing that she could do. After all, Ino did defeat her fair and square. 

Sakura was about to ignore Ino as she wasn't in the mood for a catfight with Ino-Pig. However, Ino wasn't letting that happen. 

"Good morning, flatchest." Hearing these words, Sakura's right eye heavily twitched. 

"Morning, Ino-Pig. Your mouth is loud as ever." Sakura folded her arms under her chest and stood in front of Ino. 

"What did you say?" Ino lost it when Sakura called her Ino-Pig. 

"You heard me?" Others in the classroom could clearly see sparks shooting out of their eyes as they glared at each other.

So in this world, Hanabi is Hinata's Twin But Hinata is the Eldest one. [I am going to add some AU elements to this world. This is why this world is 99.9% identical to Naruto's world.]
