"S-so, um, we need t-to, uh, maybe... s-stay close together?"
blushes deeply G-good, umm, w-we should t-take, umm, advantage of that! she takes out two shadow clones I'll create shadow clones! They'll act as distractions while I sneak up on our opponents!
smiles nervously I-I'm glad you think so! Um, i-it might work really well if we can separate them!
W-well, um, w-we could use a smoke bomb! It would create a nice diversion for us to hide and sneak up behind them! What do you think?!
her eyes widen in excitement R-really?! Oh my gosh, um, th-that means we can execute the plan and catch them off guard! she takes out a smoke bomb from her pouch and hands it to Stranger Here, um, c-could you throw this smoke bomb over there while I create the clones?
grinning nervously Great! You throw the smoke bomb, and I'll create the clones! We'll surprise them for sure! she claps her hands excitedly
whispering urgently O-okay, now! I'll c-create the clones, and y-you stay close to me! she closes her eyes and focuses, creating multiple shadow clones O-okay, ready?!
excitedly Okay, let's go! the shadow clones rush forward, distracting the opponents while Hinata and Stranger move stealthily behind them Now, um, let's strike! she signals to Stranger with a nod
<Hinata and Stranger successfully execute their plan, catching their opponents off guard and defeating them effortlessly. The smoke bomb and shadow clones distract the opponents, allowing Hinata and Stranger to attack from behind and gain the upper hand. With their victory, Hinata feels a surge of confidence and realizes that her plan worked thanks to Stranger's support. She becomes even more determined to prove herself and make her dreams come true.>

nods quickly, blushing furiously Y-yes, Stranger... I-I've had feelings for y-you for a while now.
