(B) Hinata reappeared on a rock in a forest, gazing at her surroundings, she felt the same energy as her own some distance away.
The moment she got close, she saw a much younger version of herself, she appeared to be around 12, as she knelt in front of a self-made tombstone.
As if sensing the presence behind, she turned around with a suffocating aura, "his smell, but how?", her eyes quickly landed (B) Hinata.
Standing up slowly, she put on an innocent face, while wiping her eyes, "who are you?", "don't play innocent with me, with that energy of your's, there's no need to act".
The little Hinata who was about to take a step forward, paused and smiled, "what do you mean, are you joining this ceremony?, are you going to be the bridesmaid?".
(B) Hinata was stunned hearing this and she finally looked around, only to see other people who were bound to chairs with terrified expressions, her lips fluttered and she felt exasperated by the situation.
They seemed more scared of the little girl, rather than the sudden appearance of her own Kitsune form.
"Or..", the little Hinata's aura cracked the surrounding area and she continued, "or are you here to break this ceremonies atmosphere?"
(B) Hinata sneered inwardly, the atmosphere was already terrible anyway, it was filled with dread and terror, "stop lying to yourself, do you think he'll enjoy this".
"He will!, look!, they're smiling!", she turned her head towards the group and glared, the people bound instantly put on a fake smiles in response, "see!, they're happy".
Little Hinata was smiling again, her face extremely sweet, but equally terrifying, "before we fight you little devil, what is that behind you?".
(B) Hinata pointed to the tombstone behind the little Hinata, and she followed the direction, "what else, it's my soon to be husband's, he..", her voice cracked and her face twisted into something volatile, before it quickly disappeared.
"Umm, did you say fight me, but I'm so young, you wouldn't attack me, would you?", (B) Hinata really couldn't, but this world was gonna be wiped out anyway, so it was best to take the divinity and just leave.
"This world is done for, just surrender willingly, and let our daughter take care of the rest", little Hinata just stood there for a moment, with something that seemed to flicker in-between her eyes.
She looked conflicted, staring at the ground for a long time, and after thinking it through, she finally looked up and nodded, "can I finish this first, when I've finished, I'll give myself willingly to you".
(B) Hinata looked around before nodding, "go on, take your time", the little Hinata smiled and turned to face the crowd, while tilting her head to the side slowly, "thank you all for coming, but.., I'm afraid...., you're no longer of any use here now, goodbye".
Her voice was incredibly calm, but the next second, they all suddenly turned to stone under a white light, (B) Hinata just stared, not at all bothered, she just watched as the little one, walked over to the tombstone in a swaying manner.
"My sweet, my sweet, my sweet sweet warrior, can you, come back tooo meee..", "enough!, get this over with already!".
Stopping her slowly raised hand, she nodded and knelt before the tombstone, "can you give me the honor, the honor of giving me a glimpse of him, just a little".
(B) Hinata stared down at the girl, after thinking about it, she snorted and nodded, "fine, since you've agreed, I'll at least do you this much".
She appeared quickly and inputted some of her own experiences to the younger one, her eyes shown brightly and she stared intently at (B) Hinata's belly.
Watching the girl's eyes growing even more fervent, she took a step back and glared back, "finish up here and give me your divinity".
"Mm, fine, can you give me the memories of the other stuff too", "no!, that's my personal life!", "tch, fine, selfish, selfish".
It didn't take long for her to finish her weird ceremony, but some person came out thin air, to interfere, "I refuse!, I'm taking it away!".
[What is this, a romcom, what's next, he and I have a child together.], (B) Hinata glanced at the two young girls, in her mind, she could see herself doing the exact same thing.
Staring at the blonde woman, 'a younger Shion', she decided to ignore what she was about to say.
(B) Hinata quickly vanished and chopped the younger Shion's neck, she stared down at the intruder and she felt an incredible urge to smile then laugh, after all, Hinata feels extremely happy for some reason when she sees a beaten Shion.
She turned towards the smaller Hinata and glared, (B) Hinata took the little girl seriously, that brat could destroy a planet if she wanted, so she was still on guard, "surely you're finished now?".
"I've already finished, so what's there to wait for, here accept my offering", the little Hinata quickly vanished, all her aura being sucked into (B) Hinata's body.
"She was right, at least things are easy, I just hope I don't get any darker versions of me to fight, I'm not really into it", she stared down at the blonde woman and she smiled with a mock expression.
"Hehe, you're not so strong when you don't have anyway of that slow growing stronger, other than absorbing the universe, it almost feels like I'm bullying you like this".
She simply signed and vanished for the next universe.
.
Konoha village.

"Thank you, I really appreciate this", Ino stood by a stall, as Sakura simply nodded, "mm, it's fine, I already promised you I'd go out today".
"By the way, do you have any ideas on how to succeed in using that seal, since you've succeeded, give me a few hints on how to create my own".
Sakura's fingers rubbed her forehead, feeling the slight bump of the diamond mark, she simply showed a victorious smile, "I can't really explain it, you'll just have to follow the standard technique, as for how I did it so quickly, it's probably because my chakra had undergone a rapid increase recently".
She clenched her fists and the air around it made a crackling sound, Ino just shook her before she saw three people walking towards a training ground.
She knew who one of them was, tapping Sakura's shoulder, she too followed the direction of the pointed finger.
"Hisss", Sakura almost vomited, so she quickly turned away, "it seems they've brought multiple eyes on them, where's Koyuki, did she refuse to go".
"There's no need for her to go, this'll end in his victory, why don't we just go to your place", Ino nodded and the two walked away.
On the way over, Sakura scratched her cheek and asked, "by the way, have you noticed something strange with the two Hinata's, they seem.., different".
Ino paused and frowned, "now that you mention it, yeah, at most she showed Kuraiya love, but now, it's oddly similar to that of a protector and a possessive..".
"Alright, there's no need to say anymore, I was just wondering, I thought I was seeing thing's".
Arriving at the flower shop they entered and were greeted by Inoichi's stern stare, "ah, dad, you're finally back, I thought you'd be stuck with Ibiki for another month".
Inoichi's face quickly flushed from embarrassment and he just as quickly masked it up with indifference, "mm, I got the week off this month, so it's only natural for me to be home.., it's been a while Sakura".
He nodded and left without saying anything else, from behind the counter, Hyume's head slowly came out from behind it and she placed something on the counter.
"Oh, daughter, you came..", turning to face Sakura, she held her face and tilted it to the side, "ah, sorry, my bad, I almost forgot who you were Sakura, I've been rather preoccupied recently, so please forgive me, for my forgetfulness".
Sakura waved her hand, not at all bothered, she would do this every time she would come here anyway, the names this woman will remember, is Ino's and her new grandson's name, the rest is put to the side of this woman's brain.
"You know daughter, I'm rather curious about that place you live in, I've heard you have hundreds of room's there, especially those new buildings, I know they're not up for sale, but can you take me to see that place, the surrounding mummies would always stop me from even getting close".
Ino faltered for a moment, before reluctantly nodding, Sakura speechlessly gazed at the two, [didn't Tsunade already say that place was off limits, no person is to enter.]
Ino feeling the gaze, simply shrugged, "just this once, that place is heavily protected for invaders, I can make an exception this once, just stay near me".
Inoichi, was still nearby, he leaned against the wall like a detective, even holding his ear against the wall, [perhaps, this is a good time to see that mysterious man while they go there.]
"Scum, I know you're standing over there, you're coming too", Inoichi flinched and slowly walked out of the corner, his expression evasive.
Ino shook her head, while covering her face in disappointment, "you haven't changed at all".
Sakura gazed at the three disorderly bunch, her lips moving but no words coming out.
Some time later, the four were making their way over to the Sajuu residence, to which they were quickly intercepted.
Seeing the mummies floating with their hands glowing, Ino raised her arms in a weird rapid motion, making signs at them, and the mummies for a moment stayed still, before floating away as if nothing had happened.
Inoichi couldn't help but marvel at the puppet's, he really couldn't access their minds, which made his eyes widen slightly.
Sakura gave them an awkward smile, "sorry you guy's had to see that, but they're really useful, they get most of things here done without any complaints".
Hyume nodded, she was still looking around with scrutiny and sharp eyes.
"Okay, now that, that's out of the way, this way, mom, dad", Inoichi made sure to get every detail of this place etched into his very mind, for a future visit one day.
"Oh my, these buildings are strangely tough and strange looking", Hyume knocked on a wooden house, clearly stunned by it's strange faint chakra it was releasing.
Inoichi's ears soon after, picked up on something, he turned around to hear the sound of footsteps from around a corner, the other three seeing his reaction also turned towards that place.
Sakura and Ino instinctively looked at eachother, it wasn't long until they saw a shadow and a foot, before an entire body came into view.
Ino and Sakura saw Kuraiya, his face showing slight panic before he quickly masked it up with a serious attitude.
Both Sakura and Ino, soon after, saw Hinata as she too, also came into their view.
She stood behind Kuraiya pausing as she gazed at the four, licking her lips, her eyes surveyed the group.
Sakura gazed at Hinata's appearance, her hair disheveled, with a half ripped shirt atop of the bossom, clearly showing it was used for something, with a slight flush on her face, she could've sworn she also saw something on her lips just now, before greedily cleaning it away with her tongue.
Turning to Ino, she nudged her for a quick distraction.
Ino nodded and coughed, breaking both Inoichi and Hyume out of their staring, but that distraction was enough for Kuraiya and Hinata to disappear.
So the moment, their eyes turned around slightly, they were already gone.
Hyume was quick witted, she saw them vanishing and she showed a perverted smile, [that young lady just now, she was clearly smiling at the two behind us, was it provocation or pride.]
"Ahem, mom, dad, let.., let's continue with where we left off, that was a check up on the surrounding area, they were just making sure there was nothing wrong with the puppets".
Sakura nodded, quickly chiming in to divert their attention, "that's right, they gotta make sure that no intruders enter uninvited".
Meanwhile Kuraiya and Hinata stared down from high above, "that was close, we almost got caught being frivolous".
Hinata stared at his crotch and smiled, "we kinda rushed it though didn't we, you even spilled your seed down my blouse, I'm gonna need to bathe this off, so why don't you go see the guests off later when we've finished".
Kuraiya turned and saw her breathing heavily, the air was quite cold so he could see the steam, he swallowed hard, trying to hold back the urge to attack, he knew what she meant just now, "alright, half an hour, let's try and do our best".
Putting a finger to her mouth, she licked it and replied, "I've been learning how to dance recently, Marci told me you like to see..".
Kuraiya covered up her mouth and grunted in annoyance, "what else did you pry out of her mouth, are you trying to know all my secrets and look at you, this is clearly all tease and no grab".
He clearly knew she was doing it, to get him riled up, knowing he can't do anything at the moment, other than using the two melons and the mouth.
(He isn't a number 2 area guy and neither are the other's, they find it repulsive)
Landing some distance away, they began talking in secret, like they were trying to hide a scandal.
Pulling the hand down, she simply smiled, "is it wrong of me not to know, here, this is what I've learned so far".
Pinning him against the wall, she turned around and started shaking her butt as she held his neck, humming to herself as she bobbed her head, from side to side.
"Wah", Kuraiya gasped, he could feel her pressing closer with each shake, his breathing growing heavy, his fingers twitching, Hinata was completely lost in her own world, slowly looking up, she pulled his face closer to her's and whispered before taking his lips.
"We should go to that karaoke room", Kuraiya nodded, his face twitching before he replied, "wash your mouth first, damnit, I can taste it".
Back on Ino and Sakura's side, they managed to get the elders, to forget about what they saw mere moment's ago.
About 20 minutes later, they finally stopped at the big mansion, both Inoichi and Hyume just stood there blankly, [what is this, a Daimyo's palace?..], Inoichi gave Ino a jealous gaze, and he couldn't help but think further.
[Is there even a point of staying as an ninja with a life like this, hmm.]
Turning around he saw Kuraiya towering over him, seeing his bulking muscles, he instinctively stood to the side, he didn't know why, but his body on it's own instinct chose to step back.
Kuraiya walked past them, with Hinata following behind, though her appearance was slightly more disheveled, yet she still showed something virtuous, "let them come in inside, show them around".
"What about you?", Sakura suddenly blurted out, then she stared at the three beside her, Ino just nodded, not at all bothered, "alright, I'll show them around".
Kuraiya stood at the door, his gaze landing on Sakura's figure for a moment, he couldn't help but murmuring to himself after swallowing, "when you're finished, I'm going to get you".
He soon nodded slightly and went inside, Hinata turned her head slightly, her eyes staring at the two elders, [hmph, one's infatuated and the other one is shaking in his pants.]
She swiftly turned and followed, soon after they wondered around, along the process they were being stared at with ruthless gazes, sending chills down their spines.
Especially from the turquoise woman, that gaze was as if, she was gazing at intruders, ready for shipping them into slavery on the black market.
What shocked them more, was seeing a pale skinned woman floating with a child in her arms, the moment her gaze landed on them, it was like she had full control over their very life.
Ino faltered for a moment, "they're my parents", Kaguya just squinted her eyes before leaving, not even bothering to utter word.
Ino just sighed, "she hasn't changed one bit", the group started to get to the last bits of their tour, Inoichi turned his head slightly when passing a corridor, and his eyes widened.
"Kushina!", Hyume followed his gaze after hearing his sudden yelp, Kushina was poking her daughters face, until she too also heard the voice.
Turning to face the noise, she only raised her eyebrows, seeing Inoichi and Hyume, she just waved her hand, before going back to her usual trodding, humming to herself as she walked away.
Inoichi shook his head in a rapid surprise, "Ino?, how?, how is she alive?, she died didn't she?, this shouldn't be possible".
Hyume had her hand over mouth while thinking of something else, she completely ignored his rambling, [she couldn't possibly be, right?, what.., what's happening!.]
Hyume internally screamed feeling the ground trembling slightly, before a massive earthquake rumbled all around them.
Kuraiya had ran away, in the sky he was holding his head, feeling a massive surge of heat spreading throughout his body, with steam bursting out of his body.
Hinata had followed behind him, watching his hair glowing from black to silver from a long distance, he slumped forward, his arms drooped, silence spread throughout the sky, the planet and all life itself stayed silent.
Slowly raising his head, a blinding white and blue light shot into the sky, before a galaxy manifested.
"It's that technique, has daughter really given him this, he's getting too far away from me, I can't let this continue anymore".
