The War

As Naruto watched the war, waiting for a chance to make a counter attack. As he searched the battlefield he saw the one person who has supported him his whole life. He smiled to himself. Sasuke watching Naruto closely wondered if the dope found a way to get through. 'Maybe the dope found a way through the Kages.'

"Yo, Naruto stop smiling like a dope. Have you figured out a way to end this?"

Silently cursing himself for being seen he said, "Sasuke I can't see an opening, nothing seems to work. Maybe the Kages found something out."

Sasuke nodded and turned his attention back to the battlefield. Naruto glanced one last time at her wondering why she is so important to him now.

~Scene Change~

She has fought her hardest and she feels the fatiguefrom what seems like an endless battle. She was stronger, but more than anything she wanted to protect Naruto. She decided she wouldn't give in. it is her ninja, it's their ninja way of life. Silently she said, "Naruto you can count on me."

The whites were everywhere, they seemed to be coming in bigger waves. They were easy to take down, but they just kept coming. 'Neji could handle the zetsu's with ease. Having Gai as his sensi this was nothing but a workout. I have to keep going, I can't stop. I AM STRONGER. With everything I have left I will protect Naruto like he has for me so many times.'

Hinata battle intensity increased. Seeing Hinata find renewed energy encouraged the rest of her platoon. "Go Hinata, lets show them how team 8 has progressed and stand up to anything," Kiba shouted with much enthusiasm. Shino on the other hand nodded his head in agreement. Focusing back on the battle Shino thought 'Naruto will see his comrades power, I won't be counted out this time. Naruto will remember me, he will know me better.'

Things seemed to turn in the favor of the shinobi, then suddenly the battlefield was filled with a dark chakra. The battle suddenly stops, something felt off on both sides. They wondered what was going on. Screams started to randomly erupt from the battlefield. Looking around to find the cause of the screams when she felt her legs go numb. Forcing her limbs to co-operate she slowly stood. Hinata became worried and looked around to see half of the battlefield collapsed. The other half was trying to make sense of what is going happening. Hinata looked towards Naruto. He seemed really nervous. Hinata could tell that he wanted to do something about it. Barely being able to stand Hinata tried to make her way towards Naruto. He looked her way, and started talking to her, but she begin to slowly black out. Naruto ran towards her but she felt herself falling. "Naruto, I love you," is the last thng she whispered before she went unconscious.

What is happening? I don't understand. Looking around the battlefield for her. I saw her make make her way towards me. "Hinata are you ok?"

Making my way towards her I couldn't help but feel pain when I looked at her now. She had scratches, bruises all over her body, and cuts all over her body. It gave me a new conviction knowing that she could take care of herself, she is strong. She started to wobble and my body reacted. I ran to her but she started to fall. Before she hit the ground I caught her. Her body went limp. "Hinata I love you."
