Legend Of The Toad Sage : Retold

(Author's Note: This is of course a edited version and eventually a continuation of the First version of this story. It's been edited and partially rewritten to help with the flow. for those who didn't get into my first attempt at this here's the gist of the story. I have always thought that sage mode doesn't get enough love in the manga, anime or on this site so I am going to devote most of Naruto's abilities to sage mode with maybe combined kyuubi sage mode. It's a NaruHina shipping and takes place after the battle vs. Pain and Itachi's death. Hopefully you folks will enjoy it!)

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Would i be wasting time writing fanfiction if i did But, If I did I would have done things differently. Like Haku would be a girl. In fact I'm not convinced Haku's a guy! She's in a crime ridden country filled with shady guys and she's a pretty girl. She thought if she could pass as a dude she could avoid certain complications. Haku was the first time I questioned my sexuality! I'm sure I'm not the only one. It's a conspiracy!

Prologue: The Sage gets a Girlfriend

It was early morning in the village of Konoha the sun beginning to rise over the Hokage monument. Our favorite blonde ninja, Naruto was out taking an early morning walk. 'What do I say to her, She's had to wait for far too long for my answer to her confession. Why was I so blind to see how she felt all this time. The way she always blushes whenever I talk to her, I mean she turns about as red as a Tomato, An awfully cute tomato. She faints whenever I get too close. How could I be so dense! I need to give her a response, but what the hell do I say to a girl whose feelings I've ignored for her entire life! fuck it all! I'll do what I always do improvise and everything will be fine.'

He stopped took a deep breath, closed his eyes and stood there like a statue. After 3 minutes he opened them with orange ovals around his eyes. He entered sage mode and started to scan the village for a certain Indigo haired beauty that he had to talk to. He located her chakra signature about a mile away with Kiba and Shino. He ran at full sprint towards them. Once he got there he couldn't stop his momentum and landed on one of them.

"Oi Naruto you got a lot of nerve trying to grope Hinata in the middle of town."

Naruto landed in a rather awkward position with him on top of Hinata, with his legs spread on top of hers and he realized the issue.

'Oh shit my hand is on her breast but hey its got to be at least a DD! Ero-Sennin how this kind of thing is a useful life lesson I don't know.'

"Naruto am I going to have to use Fang over fang on you…" Naruto quickly got off and apologized but then realized 'Just Great Hinata has fainted again I'm going to have to work on that if she's my girlfriend!'

"Sorry everyone but the reason I came here in such a hurry is I really needed to talk to Hinata, and was running so fast, and I kinda… and yeah… so can I borrow her!"

"Naruto, it took you long enough to finally get back to Hinata After her confession."

"I agree with Kiba-san, Hinata-san was waiting far too long."

"Alright geez you guys, I know I just couldn't make up my mind what to say to her so please continue."

"Kiba-kun, Shino-kun what happened… EEEPPP! Nar-Naruto-kun w-what are you doing here."

Hinata said while she started playing with her fingers.

"Well I kinda need to talk to you So how about I treat you to some ramen Dattebayo!"

"S-Sure N-Naruto-kun I guess I'll go with you, bye Kiba-kun and Shino-kun."

Naruto then took Hinata's hand and started bounding through Konoha to Ichiraku Ramen until about 10 seconds later he heard "N-Naruto-kun P-please slow down." "Heh sorry Hinata-chan I just get kinda excited about ramen."

'Did he just call me Hinata-chan… he called me Hinata-chan… HE JUST CALLED ME HINATA-CHAN'

All of a sudden Hinata fainted and Naruto promptly caught her and then lifted her up and carried her bridal style the rest of the way to Ichiraku's.

They arrived at the ramen stand just when Hinata started to wake up. They took their seats and Teuchi and Ayame appeared to take their orders.

"Hey old man I'll take the usual."

"And what would your girlfriend like Naruto-kun"

That was too much for Hinata to handle and she promptly fainted again.

With some quick thinking on Naruto's part he quickly made a shadow clone and the shadow clone caught Hinata and kept her up.

After 10 more minutes Hinata woke up.

"Now what would you like to order Hinata-chan."

"I'll H-have the same thing as N-Naruto-kun."

After Teuchi and Ayame left to make their orders up Naruto turned to Hinata and said.

"H-Hinata How could I have been so blind all your blushing, fainting and constant support, and I've always chased after Sakura-chan … But, You were always there for me and I never realized it. I want to be with you Hinata-chan!"

All of a sudden Hinata embraced Naruto in a hug.

"N-Naruto-kun y-you don't know h-how l-long I've waited for you to say t-this to m-me!"

"Hinata-chan would you please be my girlfriend."

All Hinata got out was a "yes" and then fainted into Naruto's arms.

Prologue end

(Author's note: Here is the new version of the prologue. For the old readers I'm not sure If all of the characters Will stay the same but the Neo-Akatsuki will still be the main threat. I should be fixing up each chapter I came out with quickly enough. For the readers from my grammatical mess of a first attempt I thank you for your support! I now know why editors are such a big thing! Until Next Time Ja ne!)
