Ch. 3

A/N: Sorry if Tsunade seemed weird, but that is only because I am not very familiarized with her character as of yet. So, if she seems ooc, sorry my bad. ^-^

ENJOY!

My Knight In Dirty Rags

The morning went by fast, so fast that before she knew it she was already in the carriage. It was silent, also, as if a silence plague swept over them while they had slept. Even Akamaru was quiet.

Hinata smiled, looking down at the necklace Hanabi gave her. The metal of the chain was cold against her skin, making her shiver if she moved it. This item, was very special to her now. The necklace was given to Hanabi when she was little, and ever since then she never removed it from her neck. Now, knowing it was around her neck made Hinata smile. It made going away seem less bad then she had first thought.

It was around mid day when they reached the town were her new home was located. Looking out of the widow, she could see the huge castle on the horizon. The castle was a dark stoned color, a great wall surrounding it. Few windows could be seen, but a huge door was very visible.

As they drew nearer, she grew more uncomfortable. The towns people stepped out of their homes, looking curiously at the carriage, trying to see who was inside. Sinking back into the seat, Hinata let out a long sigh before closing her eyes. Something in her told her she wasn’t going like this town, or even her new soon-to-be husband.

Staring at the floor, she started to think of what life would be like now. ‘It will not be the same, that is for sure,’ she thought to herself. Her eyes wandered around the inside of the carriage to the passengers. Hen she saw that Kiba was leaning on Shino asleep, drooling all over his shoulder. The look on Shino’s face was obviously annoyance, though it wasn’t very clear since it was hidden mostly. She let out a small giggle as Kiba shot up, a trail of saliva connecting his mouth to his friends shoulder.

‘Maybe it won’t be to bad. Nothing like it was at home…my old home. It will defiantly be better here,’ she smiled, petting Akamaru’s head gently as the carriage slowed down. When she looked out the window she could see saw that she was inside the compound of the castle grounds, and they were pulling up to the entrance where a single man was standing.

“Is that…?” she whispered, not heard by either men. Trying for a better look, she could see a large crown on top of the man’s head, Hinata realizing who it was. As they slowed to a stop, the passengers were helped out and both Kiba and Shino bowed to the man smiling at his new arrivals.

“Your Majesty” they both said in simultaneously. The King waved them off and they went to get the bags from the back.

Stepping up to Hinata, the king took her pale hand and placed a soft kiss upon it. “Welcome to your new home. I am Uchiha, Sasuke- your new husband to be,” he said, smiling.

“Hyuga, Hinata.” she said, blushing.

“Hmhmhm…Well, lets not stand here out in the cold, come.” he said, motioning her to follow him inside. Looking behind, Hinata looked at Kiba who mouthed ‘Go’. nodding, she walked silently beside Sasuke as the great doors opened in front of them.

Walking in Sasuke gave her the grand tour of the castle. He showed her all the rooms, all the ones she couldn’t enter, and all the rooms that weren’t of any use. Lastly, he showed her the throne room, where she was shown the throne she would sit in when they were wed. it was right next to his, just like the one in her fathers throne room.

Dinner came and they ate in silence. Occasionally he would ask her questions, which she would answer as loud as she could, so she wouldn’t seem weak.

He showed her to her room, saying it would be improper to share a bed before they were married. Bidding her a good rest, he kissed her cheek and mumbled, “ My room is only down the hall, you know where it is, right?”

“Yes,” she replied. He gave her a smile then turned and disappeared into the darkness of the hall. Opening her door, she found that all her baggage was all there already, sitting beside her bed. On top of it all was a letter. The room was dimly lit by only a few burning torches. Grabbing the letter she read it quietly to herself.

Miss Hinata,

Everything of yours is here. Sweet dreams.

Shino

P.S. Hey! Akamaru’s really missin ya! Maybe some nights, before you go and bunk with the King he can sleep with you? The king isn’t fond of Akamaru to much, don’t know why. Akamaru really likes you, weird since he doesn’t warm up with people easily! I’ll help you unpack and all tomorrow, since I have nothing else to do. I’ll drag Shino in to help also, secretly I know he wants to help. HAHA! We’ll see you in the morning then. Night!

Kiba :-D

Chuckling, she placed the letter down. Both of the men had totally different personalities, that letter proved it. Shino wasn’t very talkative and when he did is wasn’t much, just like in his letter. Kiba, on the other hand, liked the sound of his voice, along with the way he writes. He goes into long rambles without even realizing it. It was a wonder Shino could deal with him.

The sound of having Akamaru with her a night wasn’t that bad. She let out a sigh, looking thru each bag for her stationary box she had. When she found it, she opened it, taking out a piece of paper, a quill, black ink, and an envelope.

Sitting down by the desk that was in the room, she set out all her items. Dunking the quill in the ink, she started to write her letter.

Dear both Hanabi and Neji,

I feel that it will be easier to write to you both with one letter, than wasting two pieces of paper. Of course I will write to you separately if there is something I do not wish one of you to know about.

I am here, at the castle. It’s…smaller than fathers, but yet it feels enormous. It scares me, being all alone here, knowing no-one here. I did meet two men, though. One of them was the one at breakfast the day I was told I was going to be married off. At first I hated him, but I figured that was childish since he was just the messenger.

It turns out he is really nice, likes his voice a lot, but very nice. His name is Kiba, and he also has a dog named Akamaru! It’s the cutest thing ever. Then, there is Shino. He is quiet and to himself. I can tell, by his voice when he speaks, and by his actions that he, too, is nice. Both of them are going to help me out thru this all, which makes me feel safe.

The king, Sasuke, on the other hand…he is what is the scariest thing of all…His smile, is…is cold as ice. The way he talks makes my feel uncomfortable. I get this feeling that he isn’t as nice as he is right now, that he is just hiding it until the time comes.

Enough about this, though. I really miss you guys. How are you two? Anything new happen after I left?

Reply soon, with love

Hinata

Looking over the contents she was content. Folding it, she slid it into the envelope, sealing it. Writing the proper addressing on the front, she left it there for the morning, which was when she would worry about it.

Getting up, she doused all the torches, leaving the room pitch black. She was to tired to worry about changing. Taking off her tiara, she gently placed it on the side table. Lying on the bed, she sighed thinking about her friends back at her old home. Hinata only had a few friends, but at least she had some.

Closing her eyes she smiled as she curled up into a small ball. ‘I can always make new friends here. I’m sure the villagers would like to have me as a queen,’ she thought. Her mind swirled with images of her and the townsfolk all together, of her and Sasuke married and living happily ever after.

Her smile turned into a frown as her imagination took better of her and showed her Sasuke as an evil king, keeping her hidden-for his own sick fantasies, hurting her. Hinata shot up, falling out of the bed. Her breath went faster when she realized that was all just a dream.

Wiping her brow, she laid back on the bed, clutching a pillow. Slowing her breath, she closed her eyes listening to the silence of the castle. She finally fell back to sleep, after what seemed like hours. This time, though, her dreams were not plagued.
