-Nariko-
Naruto stands over Neji victorious, breath raging.

"You did it...you did it, Bro!" I shouted across the arena everyone slowly caught on to what they just witnessed and the whole crowd applaud and cheered. Naruto listened to everyone's ovation and did a victory lap running around blowing kisses to everyone. Watching Big brother's fight made me realize I have to take control and work harder pushing myself to the limit. He won then realization hit me I still had to do the bet.

If Naruto mastered the summoning technique and defeat Neji, I had to wear something of Naruto's choice next time we leave the village.

"Damn. Naruto defeated Neji? Man, I can't believe it. Here, I thought he was the same as me, one of the dorky, uncool guys." Shikamaru said
"Dorky and uncool?" Shino questioned
"Now everyone's saying how he's going make something big of himself. Just have great doubt I could beat him now. This is bad. I never felt more depressed. What a drag." Shikamaru spoke

---I hate to admit it, you Uzumaki's, but I envy you. Watching Naruto's match has made me realize that I have to work hard too, or I'll never get anywhere.--- Sakura thought thinking on the Uzumaki's successful feats

I started to walk off when they carried Neji on a stretcher.
"I'm gonna check on him." I left to go to the ward
Before leaving, my eyes flash yellow. I was outside the door listening to the medic.
"Good news. There's no damage to your internal organs."

"Seems like you used up all your chakra."

I peeked around the corner and see someone comes up and entered.
"Uh? Lord Hyuga?"

"Could you leave us alone for a bit?"

"Well, we're not supposed to." Doctor #1 stammered
"It'll only take a minute." Lord Hyuga reassured
Both medics left the room, I came out of the shadows and sneak past.
"What are you doing here, Nariko?" Neji groan Hyuga look at me

("I just came in to check on you. But somehow I know you'll discover the truth about your father's death.") I spoke but sounded differently, this wasn't me.

Lord Hyuga look at me, stunned.
"How did you---" he spoke out before Neji resumes again
"Wait, what do you mean? What truth is there? My father sacrificed himself to protect the main household!"
("Maybe or perhaps. You didn't know the whole truth of the incident. Isn't that right, Lord Hyuga? You were gonna give him a letter from his father.") I finish my statement

Neji force himself to sit up.
"What do you want with me?" Neji snarled at Lord Hyuga
"Nariko is right... You know on that day. you didn't know the whole truth of your father about what happened." Lord Hyuga sigh in defeat
"What are you saying? That day, my father was forced to pose as you to take your place for the sake of the damn main household." Neji was about to start when Lord Hyuga handed him the scroll
"Everything you need to know is in this scroll." Lord Hyuga said

"That's only excuses made for the convenience of the head family." Neji sulked
"The person that you are now. Should be able to understand." He placed down the scroll Neji placed at it and gasped then he looked at me, amazed.
("I don't know how but I just feel it, you should probably hurry up and read it,") I explained

Neji hesitated to open the scroll and read:
"Neji, I'm afraid that I only have a little time left. And I want to use that limited time to tell you something. The Head Cloud Ninja from the land of lightning tried to abduct Hinata. But Lord Hiyashi killed the would-be kidnapper. However, the Land of Lightning refused even to acknowledge the abduction attempt, and instead only made trouble about the Head Ninja's death. The demands for retribution were completely unreasonable."
