Another piece I've been holding within my grasps for a few weeks now~

I LOVE NEJI. I LOVE HIM <333

THE BABIES HAVE FULL HEADS OF HAIR BECAUSE I SAY SOOOO~

Neji Hyuga with my NARUTO OC, Arai Takameshi!

A brief description of Arai: Arai is the daughter of Keiji Takameshi - current head of the Takameshi clan - and Amarante Hyuga, who was murdered just before Arai enrolled into the Ninja Academy. She was brought up primarily as a Takameshi, but unlocked her Byakugan earlier than expected for someone who never trained it. Though she has the "white eyes" of a Hyuga, her pupils make her a strange case. Hyuga clan members see her eyes as an "impurity" of the Hyuga clan. It is, however, an advantage. When her Byakugan is active, her pupils disappear and her eyes function completely as a Hyuga's would. When her Byakugan is unactive, her eyes return to their Takameshi use - which is more than any normal Hyuga could say.

Uh. So, pre-timeskip, Neji wasn't very taken by Arai. They knew each other, on a basic level, but he never wanted to get to know her more than that. As he noticed that her Gentle Fist skills were just under his skills and more advanced than Hinata's - someone who trained her entire life with Byakugan and gentle fist, he took an interest in Arai's abilities, wanting to fight her to test his own abilities. He always won. Their constant spars led Arai to being much more friendly and open around him, even going as far as teasing and pestering him, all of which annoyed Neji, but he eventually got used to it.

Post-timeskip (Shippuden), Neji and Arai are like partners. They take on many missions together as a taijutsu team, striking with their gentle fist and incredible skills. With Neji holding the title of Jonin, he vouches for Arai to be ranked as a Special Chunin if she is not yet ready for a Jonin title - which she is granted. The two have become very noticeably close as tend to show concern for one another - Arai's concern being displayed very openly while Neji's is displayed very cryptically. It becomes a bit obvious where their relationship is heading as the time passes and as they do their best to protect and be around one another. By the Fourth Great War, their feelings are exchanged between one another and they promise to both make it back as they head to their separate divisions. Neji's death nearly drives Arai insane, as she planned to use a forbidden resurrection jutsu to restore his life, but at the cost of hers. Her eldest brother's intervention stops her, and he takes on the role of sacrifice and performs the resurrection jutsu, cutting everyone off from him and Neji with a barrier. Keisuke, Arai's brother, effectively closes the gap in Neji's torso and brings his soul and life back. In Keisuke's dying breath, he asks Neji to take care of Arai and to make the world better. To do exactly the opposite that he had done. Neji grasps Keisuke's hand, agreeing to him and stating that he would never forget the great service Keisuke had done and that he intended to protect Arai and their future with everything he had.

Post-TheLast, Neji and Arai finally marry. A year later, Neji is appointed the title of Head of the Hyuga Clan, and their firstborns are birthed just a year later - twins Keiichi and Hiroshi. They have a happy family and what u v u
