Author's Notes:

Okay, I would first of all like to say that I don't hate or dislike NaruHina – I love it like a monkey loves... Cake... But I absolutely LOVE KibaHina! It's so kawaii! I know that Kiba thinks of Hinata as a little sister, but this is MY FAN-FICTION! Therefore, I should have the right to make Kiba and Hinata to do back-flips, join the circus, walk on air, eat cheese and whatever... Maybe not all of those things, but... The point is that this is a KibaHina story...

Title: Opposites Attract, don't they?

Summary: "Who the hell do you think you are just sitting on our territory?" While stumbling too far away from the village, Hinata Hyuuga comes across a boy and his dog, who only have each other. He is too cocky for his own good and she is too shy to point that fact out. These two are complete opposites.

Genres: Romance, Mystery, Humour

Disclaimer: Okay, so I have been trying to get onto Masashi Kishimoto, but I can't speak a lot of Japanese... And I don't know his phone number... I wanted to help him with his future projects and perhaps own half of the glory, but... That didn't turn out well... I sadly don't own Naruto... *Cries*

Chapter One: Territory

The Hyuuga Clan – one of Konoha's infamous clans. They have been known for their Byakugan ability and their advanced Taijutsu. Hinata Hyuuga is the heir to that clan, her younger sister Hanabi, however, had highly advanced abilities, whilst Hinata was too – delicate and shy, so to speak.

Hinata had always been a fragile girl and even though she was part of the higher ups of the clan, she could tell that her 'cousin' Neji had been easily able to take over her in terms of strength and ability.

She had always wanted to be like her classmate – Naruto Uzumaki. He was confident, even though he would mess up sometimes – a lot – he would always get right back up and try again. That was the kind of person she wanted to be. He would have to be the kid who trains the hardest out of everyone at the Academy that they had been training at. If she could be like him that would give her the chance to show everyone that she can do something too.

Sure, she is only 12, but that means that more pressure is put onto her for graduation. She promised that she would graduate by this time, but she's not sure if she can. Many people in her class had showed some very promising skills, like Sasuke Uchiha for example. He is a child prodigy and the last remaining of the Uchiha Clan. There was also Shikamaru Nara – a true genius. He might not act like it, but it looks as though he has a pretty good chance as a ninja. Also, Shino Aburame... He was a mystery, but Hinata always had a feeling about him... That he was more that he seemed.

Hinata thought about all of this as she looked upon the clouds above her from the tree that she sat under. She had been just thinking about the graduation exams. She didn't even have the appetite to eat the cinnamon buns she had prepared for herself. She wrapped the bun that she only took a nibble out of and put it into her backpack, noting that she would have to give the second to... Well, Naruto...

She stood up with a small, quiet sigh. She was positive that it wouldn't be that hard, but still, the thought of an exam scares her. She decided that it was about time to go for another stroll through the woods – that would calm her down...

"LOOK OUT!" BAM! She had been hit by something charging from behind and had fallen onto her stomach. She blinked and rolled over onto her back and-

"N-Naruto!" She stuttered, her face deepening to a bright red.

The blonde trouble-maker looked up at her, sitting up, rubbing the new found bump on his head. "Oh... It's only you..." He said, blinking as he noticed Hinata's red face. "Hey, have you got a fever or something...? You're a little-you're red..."

Hinata quickly stood up before he could touch her forehead with a squeak. "N-No... I-I'm fine..." She replied. She noticed the paint that had spilt all over the ground – obviously he had thrown a prank and it had gone wrong. The older ninja in the village were probably after him now... "I'm s-sorry!"

Naruto stood up, folding his arms. "What are you apologizing for…?" He asked in confusion.

Hinata squeaked again and quickly hid behind the tree, Naruto raising an eyebrow at the sudden action.

"Er... What are you doing exactly...?" He asked. "Hinata...?"

Hinata's face grew redder at the mention of her name and shook her head furiously. "N-Nothing is wrong! I-I just forgot that I dropped something! T-That's it! Honest!" She replied quickly.

"That's kind of weird that you dropped something behind the tree and you have to stand up to pick it up..." Naruto stated as he rested his arms behind his head. "What, did it get stuck in the trunk somehow...?"

"U-Um..." Hinata mumbled. "I just... W-Well I... Um... N-Naruto...?"

It was rather amazing that the blonde had managed to hear Hinata due to her mumbles, but he stepped forward in acknowledgement of hearing her saying his name.

"Aren't there... D-Do you need to... I just thought that you were... Doing something..." She managed to say.

Naruto's eyes widened. "AW! CRAP! I totally forgot! See ya, Hinata!" And with that, he ran like the wind out of her eyesight.

Hinata sighed in relief. She was sure that she was going to faint at any moment if he had gotten any closer. Now she really felt the need to go take a long stroll by herself to calm down... She picked up her backpack and pulled the straps over her arms and onto her shoulders and began to make her way to the forest outside of Konoha, her head facing the ground.

'Maybe someday I'll have the courage to talk to Naruto like I want to... Just like...' She stopped that thought right there. 'No... That is even harder than talking to Naruto... He will never accept me as family...'

"Hinata!"

She looked up, hearing her name, coming face-to-face with Rock Lee, one of the most spirited ninja in the village.

"O-Oh! Lee, sorry, I didn't see you there..." She apologized with a bow.

"No need to apologize, Hinata!" Lee replied. "You are thinking about one of the most important trials of your youthful life, am I right?"

'He must be talking about the Genin Exams...' Hinata thought. It was what she was thinking about before she forgot, but now she was reminded. Great...

"A-Ah! Yes, I am..." She replied. It's true. She's started to think about it!

"Do not worry, Hinata!" Lee stated raising his thumb in the air in front of her. "With the power of your youthful spirit, you can accomplish any trial!"

Hinata stared at the ground. "Um... Thank you, Lee..."

Lee stared at her for a moment and sighed. "You know Hinata," He began, getting her attention. "Even though he won't admit it, Neji is really hoping for you to succeed in your exam! I can tell!"

Hinata looked up at him. 'Neji...?' She thought. 'I'm not too sure about that, but even so...'

'Lee is not the type to lie.'

Hinata smiled. "Thank you, Lee! Thank you!"

"No, do not thank me! Thank your spirit and youth! And your youthful spirit if you are feeling the energy!" Lee corrected her.

"But, I want to thank you. You have been so kind as to tell me about Neji... I-If you think of anything that I can do for you in return,"

"I will stop you right there," Lee stated as he folded his arms. "The only thing that you have to do is pass that exam! Your passion and spirit will help you accomplish such a goal! And all that I can ask for is that!" And then came his signature pose as his teeth sparkled brightly.

"I will!" Hinata replied with a nod.

"I better get going... Sorry to not talk much, but I can tell that you are going somewhere and I must train!" Lee added.

Hinata shook her head. "It's fine... Thank you for taking the time to tell me about Neji, again..."

Lee waved a goodbye and left to go train with his team. Hinata's smile remained on her face. She always felt good whenever Lee came to talk to her. He always managed to speak with her at least once a week and it always left on a positive note. He always tried to cheer her up. He was like a... Brother to her... He always acted brotherly... It's in his nature. He always gave her, spirit, as he would put it. Not enough spirit to jump off the walls in a ballet, but enough to try. That was good enough for her – it was perfect.

She finally managed to take her stroll outside of the village without anymore distractions, but she was still glad that she got to talk with Lee and Naruto – well, listen to him talk. She didn't know what to say. Her face flashed all kinds of shades of red, shaking her head.

She took in a deep breath, calming herself down as the sun shone down on her through the trees, a slight breeze meeting her face. Calmed down, her face returned to its normal shade as she smiled brightly. The sun and wind were perfect together. They had to do two different things, but they worked in synch on days like this and it seemed that they were one and the same – other than the fact of being total opposites, of course.

"Maybe even opposites can-" She was cut off right there, hearing the sound of a twig snapping, she squeaked in surprise. Getting into her battle stance, she looked around the area, not seeing anything. She sighed, but as she looked at the ground, she noticed a small, white puppy staring up at her, his tail wagging happily.

"Arf!" He barked and began to run circles around Hinata. The raven-haired girl stared at the dog in confusion before bending down and cautiously patting him – after he had finally stopped running.

She gave him a warm smile as she picked him up. "Are you lost?" She asked, the dog only barking, his tail still wagging.

Hinata raised an eyebrow. What would a puppy this small be doing in a huge forest like this? There are predators out here. Did he get lost? Did his owner abandon him? Did he even have an owner? There were too many possibilities... He didn't even have a collar... What was she going to do...? Would she even be able to get away with bringing a dog to the Hyuuga household?

"I guess I could try..." She stated. "After all, it would be better than you staying out here all alone... But..."

She noticed that the dog looked well looked after. It looked as if it had gotten good feeds every night and was bathed quite recently. "Do you have an owner?"

The dog's tail stopped wagging as he stared at Hinata's face for a moment before he jumped out of her grasp, running off somewhere, barking.

"D-Did he see something...?" She wondered aloud. She found herself running after the puppy without even trying to move them.

As she ran, she would notice the dog looking back at her to make sure that she was still following him. Hinata couldn't help but to wonder if he was trying to take her somewhere.

She let out a small scream as her ankle got caught on something and she fell face-first onto the ground, some dirt flying onto her face. The dog, hearing this, stopped and ran back towards her with a small whine. Hinata stroked his head gently and tried to sit up to get her ankle untangled, but as she did so, her ankle would send a sharp pain throughout her leg.

The dog licked her cheek and looked as if he was going to try to do it himself until he turned around and let out another happy bark, his tail once again wagging.

"What do we have here...?"

Hinata blinked. 'That voice... I don't recognise it... Who's here...?' She wondered and looked up to see a boy around her age wearing brown baggy clothes with messy, brown hair. And those eyes – his black cat-like eyes – sent a slight chill down her spine.

"Oi! What is a fragile thing like you doing out here?" He asked as he bent down at eye level with her. "Who said that you could come into our territory?"

It was at this moment that Hinata wondered if she had made a mistake. Fragile? Territory? This guy didn't just look intimidating, he was!

And the worst part of it all was that she was still stuck with her ankle in pain.

Author's Notes:
