Hyuuga Vs Hyuuga

Neji Hyuuga vs. Hinata Hyuuga

Those were the names on the board. There was a moment of silence. from the leaf ninja. They knew some things about Neji. And they knew that this was bad. While Neji had simply jumped down to the ring, Hinata chose to walk down the stairs.

Neji stood there, frowning as Hinata had chosen to oppose him. "For your own good, Hinata, I advise you to stand back. You will not be able to hold your own against me.", he warned the girl. And it was not just gloating, most knew it was the truth.

But the Hyuuga girl wouldn't bow to that truth. "I won't know that until I tried.", was all that he got from Hinata as a response.

"Very well then. If you have decided to try, I will show you futile your attempt is.", her cousin acknowledged her resolve with a cold smile.

Seeing as the two had said everything there was to say, the proctor decided to start this battle. "Begin!", he signaled them.

Both assumed their fighting positions, Hinata was a seemingly gentle and composed stance while Neji was nearly crouching, one hand pointing towards Hinata with his index and middle finger and his other hand the exactly other way with the palm towards the ceiling. And so they began...

The fight appeared to be even at first. Hinata attacked vigorously be controlled, not letting her emotions get the better of her. Neji defended and attacked in the same motion however, and soon, he got faster, so that Hinata was slowly driven into the defense.

Finally, he had **** Hinata to created an opening for him, which he exploited without a moment of hesitation. A strike with his palm against her stomach sends Hinata skidding backward.

Seeing as she coughed up blood, Neji stood straight. "What are you trying to prove, Hinata? You will accomplish nothing. Against me, your attacks are fruitless.", he reasoned with Hinata.

But Hinata would not listen to his reason. She had a reason of her own to keep on fighting. "Still, I will not give up.", she responded as she recovered from the blow. Wasting no time, she again relaxed her body for a moment before assuming the basic Juuken stance.

Anger flared up on Neji's usually indifferent face. His posture changed, he now crouched even lower as his eyes now target another part of Hinata's body. Then, he attacked.

It was an attack unlike any other. It was quicker, faster, more decisive than any before. Everyone realized, he wanted to end it with this one. No, even more...

"He's going for the kill!", Shikamaru exclaimed, out of his unusual self. He was well aware of what exactly Neji was trying to attack: Hinata's heart!

Before any of the Genin could react, John and Leaf Jounin proved to be the strongest ones, Guy and a woman who looked to have bandages on. intervened and held Neji in place, the tips of his fingers just an inch apart from Hinata's chest.

"That's enough, Neji. I won't let you do this!", Guy reprimanded his student. Huffing, Neji saw that there was no way he could overcome those odds and backed up.

Just as he stepped back, Kurenai saw Hinatas legs giving in and caught the young girl just in time to stop her from crashing to the ground. She immediately saw the dire situation Hinata was in and called for the medic to come and pick her up. before John heads back to teammates the monitor began to spin the names of the remaining contestants again.
