Hello Everyone!

This is my first fanfic, so please be good to me :)

And as I stated in the summary, this story is loosely being based off of Disney's "Mulan".

Enjoy!

#1 Getting Ready

As the sun started rising on a beautiful Saturday morning, people were going around Konoha village getting ready for the day, just like any other day.

The men were hanging out with their own group of friends and, as always, every girl in the village was either talking about their boyfriends, or their fiances that their very own matchmaker of the village 'Madam Tussa', had matched them with - their "soul mate". All girls that were twenty-one were supposed to have a match by that certain age, if you were twenty and below, you were still free.

All girls twenty-one and over had their man, all but one certain lavender-eyed girl still had no match in the village. The heiress of the Hyuuga Family. The Hyuuga Family was made up of many families, all who were very wealthy, but there was one family that was above them all, the main family. The main Hyuuga Family was the wealthiest of all the Hyuuga. The heiress was said to be a very beautiful and shy girl. Her eyes were clear as pearls, but the color of lavender. Every single bachelor in the village wanted her, not just because of her beauty, but also because of her riches; her family being one of the richest families in The Land of Fire. Because she was very popular among the men, and envied by all women, her father decided to finally settle her down, and going to the most famous matchmaker in Konoha was his answer. She should be able to know who's the most eligible bachelor (soon to be husband) for his daughter.

An hour before the matchmaking session, there was a certain lavender-eyed girl talking to herself in a room deep inside the Hyuuga household.

Hinata was going over her words and sentences for when she met the matchmaker this evening while she was eating a small bowl of rice.

"I won't be able to remember any of this stuff!" She let out a frustrated sigh.

She slumped down on her bed and buried her face in the pillows. She was practically the only woman in the whole village that was twenty-one and still didn't have a man at her side. Maybe because she was very shy out of her home. She was more of a free spirit here, inside her house, where no one could see her. Hinata slowly lifted her face a bit and looked around her room until something got her attention. She spotted some black ink and a brush on top of her desk. A light bulb flashed on top of her head.

"Maybe I can write all the stuff down instead, I'll just cover it up once I put on my kimono." Hinata, happy with her decision, excitedly got out of her bed and got to work. She wrote down everything she needed for the interview. She needed to sound professional, or else she might not get a match, since the matchmaker was very strict in her interviews.

Once Hinata finished and looked at her masterpiece of work, she turned to look at the clock.

Thirty minutes.

She had 30 minutes before her interview with the matchmaker began.

"Oh NO! I can't believe it! Why didn't look at the clock sooner! I'm so late!" Hinata pulled on a casual kimono as she ran to the stables to get her horse.

She mounted on her horse 'Akamaru', and sped all the way to the beauty salon in the village.

"Hinata! You're late for your beauty session!" cried out her mother.

"I-I'm so sorry mother, it will never happen again." Hinata jumped out of her horse and lowered her head down as she apologized.

"Never mind the apologies, just hurry up and get inside now, today is the day your fate will take its course. Your destiny! We'll finally be able to know who will be the man that you'll spend the rest of your life with! Now go and let the ladies get you set and ready. I just can't wait! You're going to look so gorgeous when they are done with you, no way you'll never get a match." Excitedly, Hinata's mom led her past a few curtains until they stopped in front of some middle-aged women whom seemed to be a bit annoyed at her tardiness. Hinata took a chance and looked around the room. She saw that there was a huge bathtub, some lotions and creams, makeup, beautifully crafted kimonos, and a whole lot of other things that she knew were worth a whole lot of money.

One of the lady's stood up and made her way to the huge tub.

"Let's get started now, shall we?"

Thank you for reading this fic, and I will make the next chapters longer than this, because, I prefer to read fics where the chapters are longer. :D

So anyways Thank You!
