A/N: ok first story ive ever published on fanfiction. i wanted to give it a shot lol. This story has minor sakura bashing and mainly focus on naruto and hinata development. along with whats going on in the manga. i wanted to try something different. most people usually just go straight after the war. i wanted to go into the war a bit. this isnt going to become a long story or anything. maybe at the most 4 chapters or maybe 3. this is just to test my writing skills and try a few things.
Summary:So Madara manage to stall time teleporting himself to another country. only a few people remain left of the alliance. Naruto, Sakura, Hinata, Shikimaru, Sasuke, Orochimaru, Kakashi, and Killer Bee. with those left they find resolve.
Chapter 1 Two Answers
Naruto winced after he realized that everyone was either dead or injured. The kages were out of commission and HQ was destroyed. Madara although sensing this had to retreat for Obito's sake. They decide to do Project Tsukiyomi in a different country within 3 days. The moon still shone brightly with no proof that day time ever existed. Naruto pulled himself out of bijuu form to check everyones status.
"ugh this war is dragging out... and I've already lost so many of my friends." He mumbled to himself. Kurama just closed his eyes resting a bit. He decided that he would have to be in charge.
"hey kid calm yourself down and switch places with me. i need to talk to whats left of the alliance." Kurama told Naruto in the back of his head. Naruto followed his order and allowed the fox to talk.
"I am the kyuubi ... I need everyone to listen to me if you want to win this battle. I refuse to let madara have his way with me.I need you all to rest up and but stay alert. If you need me talk to the kid. Call me kurama though," Kurama glared using Naruto's body as he stared at the alliance. Everyone accepted this fast and Shikimaru spoke.
"Kurama i think you should be in charge but if you dont mind... i erm... im. good with strategies so to speak. let me at least help you with that," he spoke with confidence.
Kurama smirked." yeah i know about you shadow kid... listen make sure no one does anything stupid. ill keep supplying my chakra for all of you to use but Madara is quite a distance from here. we can get there easily within an hour but i would like to ensure our victory. we will rest for 1 day. thats the time i need you to come up with a strategy shadow kid," Kurama went back inside naruto's body.
"yeah erm... hehe dont mind him..." Naruto scratch the back of his head light heartedly.
"troublesome... but its for the best," he tried to smile a little. The force rest for a bit. only key players alive were Kakashi, Naruto, Killer bee, Shikimaru, and Hinata. Hinata was Naruto's personal team mate. she blocked all his blind spots from Madara's efforts while Obito in all earnest focus his attacks on her but was countered by Kakashi and Guy. Guy went 8th gate right when bee got captured in order to save him. Obito and Guy went at it for awhile costing Guy his life but Obito's right eye. He would soon replace it but now it meant he couldn't bring Madara back to life on the battlefield.
After that little skirmish Madara scolded him and told him not to do anything risky unless it was for the jinchuuriki. Obito glared at Naruto knowing that he couldn't inflict the same pain as he was inflicted with years before. Obito wasn't sure how Naruto felt about Hinata but he knew she felt strongly about him. The war ended up with Madara with his back to the wall. He could easily kill them all but he wanted his body so he could have the 10 tails. The 10 tails during this time was starting to recoil and fight Madara and Obito as well so it definitely forced them to stop.
"Naruto-kun let me look at your injuries," Hinata tap his shoulder to get his attention. Naruto looked over his shoulder and was about to say something when Sakura interrupted.
"Hinata thats my department... ill take care of that," she replied mental cursing herself for being weak during the whole war. she was Naruto's teammate and she was also a fighter and a medic so why couldn't it be her to be by Naruto's side. She frowned a bit when she saw Hinata stare pierce her soul. Hinata said nothing she just stared with a slight curve in her mouth downward as if she was having an inward battle with herself. Naruto surprised them both.
"Sakura... thats not like you at all..." he smiled sadly. the pink haired girl blinked at him wondering if he can read her thoughts.
"You have a bit of negative energy in you... you mean well but that jealousy is definitely not like you at all," He pat her shoulder and Killer bee showed up.
"you fool ya fool he judge by your action, your motion, uh huh he can sense yo mothafucking emotion YEAAA!" Killer bee ryhmed dancing and moving his arms about. Naruto shook his head still holding his smile. He was use to Bee's character by now. Sakura got angry on the other hand.
"Dont call me a fool.. ya fool CHAAAAA" she punched the shit out of him and naruto sweat-dropped and took a step back.
"Look Naruto... im just a little upset I couldn't help you as well as others helped you." The pink haired girl said.
"Yeah and thats fine... you help me by being there for me. if your fighting somewhere else your efforts will make a big difference. Your one of the strongest kuniochi I know." He smiled light heartedly.
"mm.. ok Naruto... hey do you want to hang with me for a bit after i heal your wounds?" she replied happily. Hinata finally spoke up after her long pause of silence.
"Um... Sakura... I-I have to do it... all thats wrong with N-Naruto-kun is his bone is out of place in his arm... it wont take me long t-to fix it s-so... erm... you can talk to him then..." hinata trailed off. Naruto smiled he almost forgot what he sensed with Hinata. It seems he always forgot something when it came to Hinata but, now it seems that he wont miss it this time. Its like he has short memory lost and he's trying to grasp his memory before it goes blank but this time he remembers boldly.
"well its settled... Naruto meet me on the other side of the camp site. i have to check in with the other medics," she replied to Hinata. Naruto simply nod his head.
" er.. sorry about that Hinata... sakura is a little um... I dont know how to put it. she gets weird now-a-days." naruto scratch the back of his head.
"n-no need to apologies i understand..."Hinata spoke as she started to fix his arm with gentle fist. She was done in a minute or so but, even after she finished they both stood there not wanting to leave.
" um... its just that .. with Neji gone... and Kiba... Tenten as well... its hard to head feels lightheaded after soo many losses."Naruto spoke numbly.
"just... dont lose who you are Naruto-kun. please dont... your the key to this w-war and-" she was cut off by his voice
"and it seems your the key to my progression... Hinata... about pain.."he trailed off.
"I meant every word... but i told myself... th-that i wont walk behind you anymore. ill walk beside you and stand by your side always." she place a hand on his face as she did before.
"Even i-if its not with me... i will always fight for your ideals because we share the same ideals. Thats something you cant take away from me naruto-kun." she smiled and continued.
"Your ninja way was your present to me... and with that you don't owe me for anything. as long as you keep being you and allow me to fight by your side on equal terms...I-Im fine with ...with.." she paused thinking. Her confidence was something she couldn't help because of what has happen in war, how she is aware that life is fragile, and how her life isn't hers anymore. So she willed herself on
"Im fine being rejected... as long as you remain yourself." She smiled sweetly. Naruto was dumbfounded as he wonder how she does it.
"oh Hinata... your speeches... you know.. you never let me reply to them..." he laughed a little bit and Hinata shook her head removing her hand from his face. Her gaze turned towards the dirt.
"I did reply to the last one though..."Naruto looked upward towards the sky. He knew what he had to do now. it wasn't the fact that he was avoiding her or indirectly hitting around the bush. Naruto just always wanted her to know what his thoughts were. He knew they shared the same ninja way. Now about pain incident, she had cut him off with another speech. he mentally laugh at how she prolonged his answer to the question everyone wanted to know.
"hey kid... can you please stop with all this bullshit thinking. you know your not good at it." Kurama glared opening his eyes.
"hey! i have to give her my answer-"Naruto got cut off.
" your answer my ass... you don't even think of no and yes even i dont know how you feel about her... and its annoying the shit out of me,"Kurama snarled.
"just shut up," Naruto spoke forcing himself back to Hinata. She was staring at the sky as well.
"Hey kid... your answer is kind of harsh don't ya think..."Kurama finally knowing his answer towards the girl.
Meanwhile back in Konoha, Sasuke had finish his talk with the previous Hokages. Orochimaru was wary of the 1st and wasn't sure how things would play out.
"so thats all?... 2nd do you have anything to add?" Sasuke shifted his gaze to the other brother.
the 2nd didn't look too pleased but shook his head no.
"well i guess i know my answer as well..." Sasuke spoke. With two answers how will the fate of the shinobi world go about? How will hatred and love effect the way things are?
A/N: I really hope i did hinata killer bee kurama and naruto justice =/ anyways review if you want or flame =P just want some feed back.
