Hikaru was sitting on the couch reading as Iruma was inside another room nearby, explaining the situation to a woman named Anko.
He glanced out of the window to see a strange blur running into the bush. He was about to get a better look when he overheard Iruma's words.
"I am not getting rid of him just because you don't trust the boy Anko," Iruma said.
Hikaru curiously turned to the room door as the purple hair woman walked out.
" Okay, but I still don't believe the boy is trustworthy, and you know why."
Iruma glanced at Hikaru, seeing him on the couch, and gave him a sympathetic look before walking off toward the kitchen.
Hikaru frowned, not knowing why Anko didn't seem to like him that much like most of the other villages.
*****
Later that night, Hikaru lay in bed underneath thick purple covers, unable to sleep, still thinking about Anko's words earlier.
He then overhead Iruma talking to someone but couldn't fully understand what they were saying. So he climbed out of bed and opened the door as he listened to the conversation downstairs in the living room.
"I can't believe that she was telling me to get rid of Hikaru," Iruma said.
Another male voice sighed."It's not like it wasn't expected. You know she has value reason her sensei was the kid's father, and he did do horrible things to her."
"Your saying she has the right to hate a child for his father's crime!" Iruma snapped in annoyance.
"Woah, of course, not just saying think about how she feels," The other buy defended.
Iruma sighed." I get it. She is upset, but poor Hikaru is just a little kid, and he spends his life being judged for his father's crimes. It's s not fair. He will spend most of his life seen as nothing, as an outcast, and nobody has the right to treat him like that, not even Anko."
"Anko was the one effect by his crimes. Sorry, but she has pretty of a right to be mad, and you should too. Didn't he try to experiment on you once?"
Hikaru felt a stab in his chest hearing those words. He quietly shut the door and looked at his bed, but he didn't feel like sleeping now. He glanced out the window and saw that white flakes were falling from the sky. It was now snowing.
Feeling frustrated, Hikaru got dressed and put on a jacket, and sneaked out of the house.
*****
Hikaru wandered around the villages for a few hours before he noticed a beautiful around his age sitting in the snow crying.
"You will catch a cold like that," He stated; the girl looked up at him with beautiful eyes, tears falling down her cheeks.
He walked closer and crouched down."You will get a cold staying like this. You should get home before your parents get upset and worried about you."
The girl slowly stood up and dusted her knees; Hikaru walked her to her home in dead silence. When he reached her home, the Hyuga estate, he stopped and turned around.
"Today, my second day since I started living in a new home...and I found out that many villagers hate me because of my father's past. But I won't let that stop me; I'll find a way to prove to them im not father and gain their respect," He said with determination in his eyes, mostly talking to himself.
The girl nodded at him, surprised and inspired by his words. She walked to the door and grabbed the handle before stopping and looking back at Hikaru.
"I-I hope y-Youur new home nice," Her voice soft as a whisper, but Hikaru heard it.
He smiled and waved bye as she went inside; he turned and looked up at the sky, feeling the determination to prove the villagers wrong and take Lady Yuki's advice. He would become a shinboi stronger than the Legendary Yoninn and gain the villagers' respect.
The third chapter is finally completed. Hikaru overheads Iruma talking with someone. This led to him finding out that the villagers hated him because not only was he an outcast, but he was the son of a criminal. He then met Hinata, the Hyuga princess who was out in the snow.
