Chapter 2 – Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuga Hinata!

Minato was so proud as his three year old son came down the stairs. He and Kushina had decided to give him the name Uzumaki instead of Namikaze to protect him. He already had the entire village trying to kill him; he didn't need Minato's enemies after him as well. At 16 they would give Naruto and his mom the family name, but for now it was safer he remain an Uzumaki.

As it was he still lived in the Namikaze mansion along with his mother and father and their servants. Whenever Naruto left the Namikaze's compound He was suited up in body armor with an ANBU escort. Because of this he had only left the compound twice. His father had told him today he would go meet a special little girl. He had yet to meet anyone his age. The only people he knew was Tsunade (as aunt), Jiraiya (as granddad), Kakashi (as Kakashi-niisan), and Umino Iruka (as uncle).

Even at the age of three he had already received some training, mainly just endurance training from his mother and a bit of chakra control from his aunt. He spent an hour every day with uncle Iruka reading up on chakra control and hand signs. With his brother he would attempt to spar but it was never anything really intense, just learning how to punch and kick right. His granddad made him writ up summoning scrolls everyday yet he was never allowed to use them. Last his dad taught him about weapons like the kunai.

His parents had done everything they could to keep Naruto entertained and busy but today they were finally ready for him to meet the Hyuga Heiress.


Hiashi frowned as his only daughter came down the stairs. He had just received a message from the Hokage that his child was to be meeting the Kyubbi's container. The message had come as he was sealing Neji's Byakugan. He knew Hinata also held a nine tailed fox but hers was different, not nearly as violent. Not to mention he was anxious about the two spirits being close to each other.

His daughter was the image of her mother. He couldn't look at her without feeling the loss of his beloved wife. He avoided his daughter to spare himself the pain of remembering. Hinata had very little contact with children outside of the clan. While she could walk the streets without fear of attack she seldom even left her room. She was close to her personal bodyguard, Hanabi.

She had yet to start any training but she did work a bit on endurance. Running laps and pushups was about it. As she came down the stairs she saw her father frown at her. She wandered why he was never happy to see her. After she said good morning to him he informed her that a guest would be visiting today and she was expected to be polite and act as a clan heiress should.

Hiashi had done everything possible to avoid this meeting but today Hinata would finally meet the Namikaze heir.
