CHAPTER ONE:RUNAWAY

The Forgotten Ones

(Hinata pov)

"You worthless piece of crap." my father Hiashi Hyugga said these words with cold venom in his voice. "Why did God even waist time making you?"

He spat these words at me as if they would cause me unbearable pain. Of course these words did not do anything, as I knew the real pain would soon come.

"Why did you have to be born into this family, the least you could is be more like your sister or even your branch side cousin, at least he is a prodigy!" my father is

practically yelling now. Throughout his whole speech, I have not said a word for I know that if I even so much breathe loudly that I would be in for far worse pain than what is coming. "You failure, are you even listening to me."my father screeched. I did not even open my mouth to reply. Father naturally got furious when I did not answer. "Are you so pathetic that you can not utter a simple yes or no!" My father raised his fist as he finished the words he were speaking and he slammed his fist into my stomach and twisted his fist so that I was forced to cough up blood. Heh blood you would think that by now I wouldnt feel the pain that came with it. But of course I feel the pain. I feel every slap,punch,kick etc. etc. But I forced myself to deal with it. Ever since my mom died I have promised myself that I would never cry for this man I call father. I would never give him the pleasure to see my face in tears. He landed his final hit and walked away leaving me on the ground, bruised, beaten, and of course in pain. As I was about to black out I heard a voice. A beautiful, soft, caring voice that never ran out of second chances. A voice that I had not heard of for years. A voice that belonged to my mom.

"My lovely daughter." the voice said sarrow evident in her voice. "You have been through so much pain and it hurts me to see you like this" the angelic voice was almost a whisper. "It hurts me even more to tell you that you will still have to face many more hardships before it is all over, but you will have your friends and they will help

you through it all." her voice changed when she finished that sentence and went into another tone as she began to say something else to her daughter."Now I want you to go to sleep for now but when you wake up in the morning I want you to pack your bags but only bring necessary items with you." her voice was beginning to fade."After that I want you to start out the day like you normally would. Then when night falls grab your stuff and run to the mountains,the same ones I showed you, on your way there, you will meet two girs and they will be your closest friends trust them. They will help you on your journey. I must leave now. Good-bye my little sunshine." And then there was silence.

All you could hear were the ragged breathing of one midnight blue haired Hinata Hyugga. She thought back to what her mother said to her ...and...she smiled? So she was finally getting out of the place were she was beaten every day of her life, were she had taken her first step at trying to be confident and defiant but in the end got harsher beatings for defiance and apparently the only reason they kept her was to destroy her confidence, and most of all were she made and lost her only friend. Her cousin Neji. 'Heh well they are gonna soon see that they cant always keep me locked up in the fiery pits of Hades.a.k.a her 'home'. was her last thought as she completely blacked out.

(TenTen pov)

A young girl was lying on her bed. At first glance, and at a far distance you would see her as an average lazy teenage girl (A/N: no offence to all teens I'm one myself so I basically called myself lazy (which I am --)however if you take a closer look you would see that she was grimacing in pain, and if you take a even closer look you would see all of the bruises, cuts and scars all around her body in various places. Of course anybody would simply assume that all of her scars were from training and missions. She is after all a ninja. But no. These marks on her body, were from no missions (she never got injured on them) yet a few were from training (Neji is a really tough opponent.) however most of them were from her oh so wonderful father. (Note the sarcasm) How bad is he you ask? Lets just put it like this, even if Neji were to continue to hit her a whole month without stop it would still not amount to the many hits she receives from her father in a week. Anyways, she had just been beaten once again by her father. (A/N: The same thing that happened to Hinata had pretty much hapened toTenTen, except for different insults)

"Ugh!! Why did I have to be born into this freakin family!? If they're even worth to be called family." TenTen said these words with unmistakable fury in her voice. 'I mean sure the people besides my dad don't hit me but they sure as heck don't do anything about it' TenTen thought about her 'family'when suddenly she smiled. 'At least I'll only have to deal with this for one more day.' TenTen thought about the dream she had last week. It had involved a beautiful woman. In the dream TenTen was all alone, when she was suddenly surrounded by darkness. At first she had thought it was a surprise attack, and she reached down to take out a kunai only to find that her pouch of weapons was not there. "W-what the" Dream TenTen had stuttered. "My dear TenTen, you have grown quite a bit" said a woman with flowing midnight blue hair. It was the same woman who comforted her when she was sad, mad, and other confusing emotions. It was the woman who trained her to become the kunoichi she is today. It was Hikari Hyugga. (A/N: Hinatas mom.)

H-Hikari sensai? questioned TenTen not sure if the kind woman was there. "yes TenTen it is me. I need you to do something for me and yourself in a week exactly." Hikari said in a slightly demanding tone. "What is it Sensai?" TenTen asked not caring anymore if she really was there or not. She would still do whatever her sensai told her to. "I need you to pack only neccessary items, and at nightfall run away from this place, to the mountains I told you about. On the way you will meet two young girls with the same motive as you. You will befriend the girls and you will help each other to become stronger. One girl is my daughter. She will be the leader of the group. You will know its her when you see her. Good-bye, My little warrior angel." And with that the dream ended as her father screeched for her to get her lazy butt out of bed and make breakfast.

(Temari pov)

"I will kill you." her younger brother Gaara threatened her...again...for the 15th time this week. And with that sand knocked her off her feet and into the wall make of stone behind her. "You worthless piece of crud." her other brother Kankoro said as he slapped the living heck out of her. "Can you not even defend yourself." he shouted at her. ' I would if I wasn't just knocked into a wall you dumb butt' Temari said in her mind as she was punched over and over until they finally left her to go torture some other poor soul. There was blood coming out of her mouth, and bruises over her body.

Temari stood up and looked around know one was there. She got out a bag and begin packing it with stuff as she remembered something. "Temari my sweet little girl, you have grown harsher." the voice said as Temari tried to figure out how the heck she knew her name. "You are probably wondering how I know your name. Am I correct?" the voice asked. Temari nodded her head now wondering if she could read minds.

"I am that woman you met five years ago, the one who was on a mission in the sand." the woman said. Temari thought back and remembered the day she was crying in the park being comforted by a young woman. Temari then gasped as she said " B-but I heard that you died!" Temari exclaimed in shock. the woman laughed. "I did die. I came back for a short while to tell you something." She laughed again at the shocked look on Temaris face but quickly went into serious mode. "Now in a week from now I want you to pack only necessary items, then at nightfall leave in the middle of the night. Do not worry about your brother that dose not sleep. He will have a mission at that time. You will go to the mountains I told you about when we talked at the park remember?" Temari nodded. " On your way there you will meet two other girls you will be doing the same that you are doing. you will become friends with these girls and with each others help you will all become steadily stronger. One of the girl is my daughter and she shall be the leader."

Temari was about to ask how she was supposed to know which one was the daughter when her voiceless question was answered. " Trust me you'll know its her when you see her" once again Temari wondered if the woman could read minds. Good-bye, My little wind controller. As she was about to completely disappear Temari asked a question that had been bothering her since five years ago "Whats your name?" "Hikari" and with that she completely disappeared.

(Normal pov)

The next night all three girls left there villages. Hinata and TenTen left at different times so they still wouldnt meet up until later. none of the girls knew each other but they all knew that they would know its them they should be traveling with when the meet up. So all girls silently left there villages and into a whole new adventure.
