Arya

Holding the bundle that wrapped the two newborn twins in my hand with a frown, I spoke, "It's twins."

This was the first major change that had occurred due to my interference.

But the frown immediately changed into a mild smile as I looked at the pair: one with brown hair, the Hanabi I knew, and another one with the same hair as me and my mother, dark blue.

.

Their big eyes curiously looked around, not knowing what was happening around them. Their expressions were cute and adorable.

"Haha, look, mommy, they are so cute," I quickly brought them to my mother.

But as soon as I put them beside her, their expressions changed, "WUUUUHNNAAAWUUU," with an ear-piercing scream, they started to cry at the same time.

.

"I think they didn't want to get away from you," my mother whispered and gently took them in her arms, swinging them with a sweet voice.

"Hehe, good, I am feeling very happy. Give them to me," laughing giddily, I tried to snatch them from her.

"See, see, they even stopped crying after hearing me," I approached her with my hand extended, but my mother pulled them even closer to her.

.

"I am not giving them to you, brat. Let me first see them properly and feed them, then you can have them."

"I shouldn't have given them to you in the first place," I grumbled and stood beside Neji.

He put a reassuring hand on my shoulder. Looking at him, my eyes asked, 'Are you too mocking me?'

He just calmly nodded to me like the elder brother he was.

'You traitorous brother.'

.

"So, what should we name them?" my father asked.

Looking at the brown-haired girl, my mother said, "Hanabi, let's name her Hanabi."

'Didn't I suppose to name her?' I thought.

Looking at me, my mother said, "Don't make that face, baby. You can name the other one."

Quickly running, I snatched the blue-haired girl, raising her towards the heavens. With a strong and enchanting tone, I spoke, my Byakugan activated, piercing her soul, "You are going to be the strongest of us, and as a noble, I shall name you Arya, Arya Hyuga."

.

Everyone in the room looked at me with somewhat unreadable expressions.

Ignoring them, I tenderly put her down in my mother's arms, and with a grin, I asked, "How do you like it?"

"It's beautiful," my father replied.

"Haha, I am happy that you like it."

.

And soon, the elders appeared in the room, doing the same thing they did when I was born.

After giving their elderly blessings, Elder Kazuya spoke, "Congratulations, Hiashi, you have normal children this time."

Just because of my presence alone, the relationship in the main family was very strong instead of what it was supposed to be.

"Haha, thanks for your blessings," my father happily replied.

I looked at my mother and father, their radiant faces, eyes brimming with happiness with warm smiles; they were truly happy.

I looked at them before closing my eyes.

"Hey, sis, why are you spending most of your time in the lab?" Neji curiously asked.

"Did you feel lonely without your sister?" I asked.

"I was just curious."

It's been 5 days since the twins were born, and currently, it was night. Our taijutsu training had just been completed for the day.

Pulling out the three pieces of chakra metal, and with a click sound, they turned into a staff, and with another click, they turned into a bow without a string.

"Let's raise the stakes, shall we?" With a grin on my face, I spoke, reappearing on a tree. We regularly practiced our little death matches thrice a week.

.

It's been eight months since we started this training, and the fruits of our labor were very sweet.

"Of course, sis. I was just waiting for this moment," he activated his Byakugan and limited his vision to 10 meters, expelling a thin membrane of chakra in a spherical shape and maintaining it.

*swish*

An arrow shot towards him with incredible speed. Neji, seeing the incoming attack, raised his two chakra-coated fingers and with a swift motion, slightly deflected the arrow.

He had a smirk on his face.

"Don't get cocky, brother," I disappeared from there and appeared in another place.

.

*swish* *swish* *swish*

Rapidly, I shot three arrows: one aimed at his heart, and two at his blind spot.

When the first one entered his vision, he thrust his palm, and a burst of compressed air shot out from his hand, destroying the arrow.

However, he couldn't see the two arrows aimed at his blind spot until they entered the thin membrane, but when he felt them, I was not going to let him dodge so easily.

With a flick of my fingers, the strings moved that were connected to the arrows, and the arrows still remained in his blind spot, before he could do anything, they were inches away from his back, ready to pierce him.

But his instincts were honed to the point that when he felt danger, he disappeared from there using body flicker at the last moment.

His heartbeat quickened, and sweat dropped on his forehead.

.

I set another arrow on the string, a smile forming on my lips. 'This is going to hurt, brother.'

Blue lightning flickered on the bottom of the arrow where my fingers were holding it.

*swish*

And with a burst of lightning chakra, the arrow instantly appeared in Neji's field of vision. Before he could react, another burst happened on the arrow, using all the remaining lightning, increasing the already incredibly fast arrow manyfold.

"WHA…" Before he could react, the arrow pierced his shoulder, pinning him down to the ground.

.

"Argh…" But before he could scream in pain, another arrow pierced his other shoulder. Then again, another arrow pierced his chest, avoiding his ribs and lungs. The green ground started to turn red.

I appeared in front of my dear brother, who was pinned to the ground, with three bloody arrows in his body.

He just looked at me, suppressing his pain.

Squatting down near him, I spoke, "If I were an enemy, you would have died, brother. Or do you think you're the main character of some cliche story, and a halo is protecting you? Think, brother, think."

.

"No, I am not," he weakly replied and looked at me.

"I will train harder."

"Yes, that's the answer, brother," I smiled at him and helped him stand up.

"This is going to hurt a bit." I appeared behind him and yanked out the arrows from his body.

Placing the tip of my finger on his wound, countless silk-like chakra threads entered his wound, occupying the space and mending his flesh. With a cutting sound, I connected the tip of the string to his nearby tenketsu point.

I repeated the same process on his other wounds; this was the result of my many years of training.

This special medical ninjutsu that I had developed could only be used by a Byakugan user with extreme chakra control.

.

"Feeling fine?" I asked.

"Haha, better than a gaping wound," he joked.

"That's good. Let's end here."

He nodded to me and walked towards home.

cough My mother coughed out blood. With a weak smile, she asked, "Am I going to die?"

"No, we will find the cure for your illness," my father said firmly, holding her hand.

"But the doctor said I don't have much time left," she said, looking at the peacefully sleeping twins.

"Did you tell Hinata?" my father asked worriedly.

"I don't want to make her sad seeing me like this."

.

I was listening to their conversation, hiding behind the wall. Her condition was worse than I supposed due to the childbirth of two children.

'If I am correct, she only had 10 more days left.'

"I don't want to die. I want to see my children grow. Want to play with them, eat with them, and many more things…"
