Hinata was the eldest of two daughters born to Hyuuga Hiashi and his wife. Being the child of such a successful businessman gave her a life of comfort and ease, with little to want for. Except her parents. Her father was always working, even at home it seemed. And her mother's heath was not the greatest. While pregnant with Hinata she had been diagnosed with ovarian epithelial carcinoma. The treatments and surgeries she would later undergo always seemed promising, but in the end they would never truly cure her. After a long and difficult illness she would die a few years after the birth of their second child.

Even with her fathers absence and mothers illness, it seemed to have little effect on little Hina. She had been a happy and bubbling child in the early years, always running after her cousin or clinging to her mother's leg when she was around. Even her nanny couldn't get over what a sweet little child she was. Her world had been warm and safe then, filled with smiling faces and kind people until one day a few short months after her third birthday all of that changed.

The nanny had taken her out for the day, down to the local park to play in the sun and chase the ducks by the pond. A goose had snuck over and stolen something from her... and that's when the man had shown up and everything seemed to blur into a horrible nightmare. Even now, as a young girl on the verge of womanhood Hinata is still plagued with the memories of her nanny screaming, of the horrible man and his companions that held her till the violent standoff that ended in her uncles murder. Her family tried to help her cope afterwards but the damage was done. Their sweet little girl was gone, replaced with a quiet, timid little shadow who shied away from almost everyone, especially her father whom she'd thought she'd watched die.

When her mother finally died it seemed to make things worse, as she was the only one Hinata trusted. Her cousin Neji, whom she'd adored when younger, seemed cold and distant to her. Hiashi, not knowing how to deal with the loss of his wife and his daughters problems buried himself in his pharmaceutical business. As the years passed even her own sister Hanabi, who was 5 years younger then her, came to find that her distrust of the world made her no fun anymore and began to look elsewhere for entertainment. In school the other children barely noticed her and never bothered to invite her into their games. In high school she followed her fathers example and buried herself in her work to spare herself from the rumor mills. It seemed she had achieved total anonymity and with it, safety from anyone ever hurting her again. But soon she realized that it wasn't really what she wanted. She watched silently from her corner how the other girls would laugh and make plans with each other. They had friends to share news with, cry on, to ask for help. And Hinata had... no one really. Late one night, bothered by these thoughts and the aching loneliness that was growing, she snuck into her sisters room waking her up with only the words "I... don't want to hide anymore. I... I want people to... to notice me."

Now, after a year of social lessons from her sister, Hinata is trying to start over and build her life as a new person in college. It's her hope that she can find a few friends, learn to trust people again, and maybe get back the happiness that had been taken from her so long ago.
