Hey people uzumakie-san hope you like this story so far. I hope to continue it for quite some time. I have gotten some ideas for this story from SIHV and have been bouncing ideas off of ravercozy in hopes of making this my best story yet weather it be here on FF or in school. I have realized in my last chapter at the beginning and so in-case some of you did not get it this story takes place during the shipuuden time line. And sorry I write paragraphs at the beginning of the chapters I will try something different after this chapter.

I DO NOT OWN NARUTO IN ANYWAY SHAPE OR FORM.

Some say that when you truly love someone and they love you in return that there is a telepathic link formed between them. This link formed is measured in strength by what people feel or can tell about there love when they are not near each other.

Escaping and plans

"Just shut up and tell me who you are and why your following me." Naruto responded to the cloaked figures.

"Easy Naruto we do not mean any harm to you we only wish to help." The taller of the two said in a masculine voice.

"How do I know you are telling the truth then why don't you show me who you are instead of hiding behind your hoods." Naruto said readying his kunai for attack.

"We cannot do that just yet but I can tell you that if we were your enemy we would have killed you already ." Realizing that what the cloaked people were saying to be true Naruto put down his kunai but still kept it out just in-case to hear what they had to say.

"What we want is to help you escape and not get caught we will not be coming with you just yet but in time we will find you and join you, if you want even train you." The feminine of the two said showing concern in her voice.

"OK so how are you going to help me escape without getting caught because so far I think I'm doing a pretty good job of it so far." Naruto replied thinking of how these people can really help him with something that he has already done.

"Well once they discover that you have gone missing they will send multiple teams of ninja looking for you so we could give you advice on places to go and how to put the ninja's off of your track." They both replied in a matter of fact sounding voice.

"OK so if your going to help me please do I don't really want to go back to the village at least not yet it is going to be quite some time before I will willingly go back." Worriedly saying truly hoping he does not go back to the village.

"OK first head west keep going straight till you come across a boulder in the ground that has a carving of a kunai pointing to the right when you get to that boulder I want you to go to the left and keep going till you fall down a hole that seems like a tunnel going straight down there you can train." The tall and masculine cloaked figure told Naruto hoping he would do just that and not have any trouble.

"Don't worry about the ninja tracking you we will take care of that. Oh and before we leave here take this I think you should keep it." The short more feminine cloaked figure told him and handing him the necklace he left behind at his old apartment.

Naruto took the necklace and put it around his neck saying.

"Thank you for everything I hope to see you in the future I should be on my way now so if you need me you obviously know where to find me, ja-ne." And he took off and ran away in the direction the cloaked figures told him to.

Naruto ran for quiet some time never stopping unless he had to go "potty" as he would eat while running toward his destination. Some of the time to have something to do other than just run in silence Naruto would strike up a conversation with the Kyuubi about anything that came to his mind just to keep from the silence. Naruto was still running when the sun started to go down and still did not reach his destination that the cloaked figures told him to head to. He had not expected it to be that far away but he figured it would be for the best "the farther away the better" as he thought.

"Well looks like I'm going to have to stop here tonight for camp and continue on my way in the morning." He said to himself as he found a nice smooth clearing a little away from his path he had been taking. He set up his tent changed into his pajamas and put on his really long night cap. After changing he got into his sleeping bag and was fast asleep.

-XxXxX-

It was a sunny day like any normal day in Konohagakure and the city was celebrating at the discovery that Naruto just disappeared from the village. Even people Naruto thought to be his friends were at the party that took most up most of the village. At the center of the party was none other than Sakura and Sasuke laughing and dancing and occasionally you could here them singing the tune that some of the villagers came up with 'Naruto is gone, he is finally gone'. The only person that was not at the party was a girl with midnight blue hair that went down to her lower back and had pupil less eyes with a light lavender tint to them. This girl resides in the Hyuuga main branch house hold and is in fact the heir to the Hyuuga clan he name Hinata Hyuuga. Hinata was in her room curled up in the fetal position screaming and crying her eyes out.

Hyuuga Hiashi, Hinata's father was sitting in his office in the main branch house of the Hyuuga compound thinking that the village was arrogant assholes who shouldn't be celebrating the disappearance of a fine ninja and man such as Naruto when he heard a scream coming from upstairs. Hiashi was startled by the sudden screaming and followed the noise up the stairs and straight to his daughters room. Hiashi burst through the door to his daughters room to see her curled up in the fetal position on her bed crying her eyes out.

"Hinata what is wrong why are you crying and screaming so much?" Hiashi asked truly scared for his daughter.

"Why… why do they hate him so much and why are they celebrating his disappearance we should be out there looking for him, why father?" Hinata asked through deep intakes of breath trying to calm down her crying.

"I wish I could tell you my daughter but is forbidden to speak of but I will tell you that a reason that the villagers are celebrating is because they are arrogant pricks that should be killed or locked up for treating Naruto so poorly," Hiashi said trying to calm his daughter down and comfort her in her time of need.

"Just train and hope for his return so that you can finally tell him how you fell and be with him." Hiashi interjected before Hinata could reply to his answer about the villagers.

Cleaning up her tears after stopping from crying Hinata smiled at her father and gave him a nod assuring him that she will be OK.

Seeing the smile and nod Hiashi decided that his daughter was calm enough for him to leave so he stood up and walked to the door before turning around to tell Hinata good night.

"Good night Hinata-chan pleasant dreams." Hiashi said.

"Good night father pleasant dreams to you too." Hinata said smiling at him.

With that Hiashi walked out of the room and left his daughter for sleep and pleasant dreams.

After Hiashi left the room Hinata lay there wide awake now with thoughts of her blonde crush and hoping of his return to the village so that she may tell him how she feels about him and wish for those same feelings to be returned to her. As she was laying there thinking of Naruto and how she would tell him how she feels she heard a noise outside her window that sounded like wind going through the trees, she found this weird since it wasn't supposed to be a windy night according to the weather forecast. She kept hearing this noise until a dark figure came and flew through her window and landed on her floor in front of her.

"Hinata-chan I'm so sorry that I left you but I had to and I can't really stay but I just wanted to tell you that I love you and hope to some day get those feelings in return and be able to live a happy life with you." The strange dark figure said to the scared lavender eyed Hyuuga heiress sitting on the bed.

"A-ano, sorry but who are you?" she asked fearing that this person can be a kidnapper who will take her and sell her to some other ninja nation to use for breeding stock so that they may have the Byakugan for themselves.

"Hinata-chan I'm hurt that you don't recognize me, it's me Hinata-chan Naruto." He said turning around and taking off his hood to his cloak to reveal that he is in fact Naruto.

Hinata didn't say a thing all that she did was sit there and stare at the man she thought was dead happy to see him alive. She soon realized what Naruto had said while he was still under his cloak and blushed so red that it made a tomato look pale. She had to fight hard in her head to not loose consciousness and possibly loose the only chance to ever see him again.

With a huge blush on her face she replied "S-sorry Naruto-kun I di-didn't recognize yo-your voice." she said barley stuttering surprising her and Naruto both.

"Heh-heh its OK Hinata-chan I understand but I really do mean what I said I am sorry and I do love you." Naruto said sheepishly rubbing the back of his head.

"REALLY YOU REALLY LOVE ME!" Hinata practically screamed at Naruto in surprise not really meaning to.

"Yea really Hinata-chan and please keep your voice down I don't want to wake anyone and interrupt us here." Naruto said with a slight quizzical look on his face wondering what she is going to say about him loving her.

"Hai Na-Naruto-kun I-I was just su-surprised I di-didn't think you li-liked me that wa-way." Hinata stuttered out while blushing profusely at the fact of what she has been told about her love.

"Of course I like you Hinata what is there not to like, your smart funny beautiful and a pretty damn kunoichi too anyone who does not see that is an idiot." not believing that Hinata thinks she doesn't have any good qualities and him trying to prove to her otherwise.

She just sat there and smiled not believing what Naruto has told her what he likes and thinks about her. With a blush still on her face she just got out of bed and walked over to him to give him a tight hug. She was holding on to him so tight that some would believe she was holding on to him as if her life depended on it and that if she didn't than he would disappear. Smiling though he returned the hug and even bent down to kiss the top of her head seeming as he was slightly taller than she was.

"I would love to stay here like this forever Hinata-chan but I can't I got to go now." A nearly crying Naruto said to Hinata.

"No Naruto-kun you can't go I just got you please why do you have to go?" Hinata said balling her eyes out from just finding out her love feels the same way about her as she does about him and then finding out that he is not going to stay here in the village with her.

"Sorry Hinata-chan but no one but you wants me in this village I always get treated like shit I just cant stay here I'm so sorry." A very teary eyed Naruto said trying to explain to her why he can't stay without revealing his secret to her.

"I know it hurts Hinata-chan trust me I know it hurts me very much as well but I just can't stay here just remember I love you and that I will come back some day I don't know when but I will." He said giving her a kiss on the lips before taking of so that it would not hurt anymore than it already did to say goodbye to her.

When Naruto left he left Hinata standing there stunned that he would come here tell her that he loves her and then just leave. This upset her so much that she fell to her knees screaming in agony crying her eyes out.

-XxXxX-

It is the middle of the night after Naruto left and all was quiet like any other night (in most places) until there was a loud scream heard through out half of Konohagakure and if that didn't help any there was also a very strong amount of chakra being released that was felt through out the city. With the loud screaming and high and strong amount of chakra being released it naturally woke a lot if not all the people in the village up.

(with Tsunade)

Tsunade has just fallen asleep after a long day at the Hokage tower when she woke up to hearing a scream and sensing a strong and high amount of chakra being released. Being the Hokage she knew that she had to go and investigate the strange occurrences so that she may insure the safety of the village and the people inside. Reluctantly getting up and quickly dressed Tsunade took off out her bedroom window towards the noise and chakra she heard and felt. On the way there three ANBU came running up beside her waiting for orders.

"Hokage-Sama what are your orders on this situation with the screaming and high chakra being released?" An ANBU wearing a hawk mask asked her clearly stating that he was the leader of the ANBU squad following her.

"I want you to contain the area and do not I repeat do not interrupt me under any circumstances unless I call you in is that clear?" In an authoritative voice Tsunade ordered the ANBU squad.

"Understood Hokage-Sama." The leader of the ANBU squad said.

"Good now go." Tsunade told the ANBU squad.

The ANBU squad took off in different directions to go and secure the area around the disturbances.

"What the hell is going on here why is this strange chakra coming from the Hyuuga estates and what is with the screaming." Tsunade asked herself.

Upon arriving at the Hyuuga residence compound Tsunade came upon the sight of the entire compound in panic and many running around investigating everywhere in the compound to see if anyone has broken in and kidnapped someone.

"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!" Tsunade screamed to the entire compound earning everyone's attention that was there.

"Tsunade-Sama please follow me I think I can show you what is going on." Hiashi said showing up in the front doorway leading from the main house in the compound.

Tsunade turned and looked at Hiashi seeing a look of disturbed sadness on his face. She decided to follow him into the house and down the hall to the source of all the disturbances. Upon entering the room Tsunade came to a very unexpected sight (considering who the person was.). Hinata was laying there in her bed in sobbing convulsions still screaming and unconsciously releasing mass amounts of chakra.

"Oh my god! Hinata." Tsunade ran immediately to Hinata's side (after seeing her the way she was) to run a quick diagnostics jutsu on her to make sure there were no injuries inflicted by an unknown force.

"Hinata?, Hinata wake up we need you to wake up" Hiashi said trying to wake up his daughter in the hopes of finding out why she was screaming and to stop the exceedingly dangerous amount of chakra she was releasing.

Still sobbing (she was crying in her sleep) her eyes fluttered to see two blurry figures staring at her from both sides of her bed. She cleared her eyes so that she could see better but still had tears running down her face she realized that the two blurry figures were in fact the Hokage and her father.

"F-father, H-hokage-sama? What are you doing here?" Hinata asked truly curious as to why the leader of there village and her father were standing on both sides of her bed with distraught faces. All the while Hinata was trying to hide the tears that were still coming down her face.

"We are here to see what is wrong with you, you woke most of the village up with your screaming and if that didn't wake them up it was the massive amount of chakra you were emitting." Hiashi told his daughter reading her face for any clues as to why she may have been screaming and releasing a massive amount of chakra or to at least see if she knew what she was doing.

"Hinata can you remember anything that happened in your dream to cause you to scream and release a lot of chakra like you were?" Tsunade asked her figuring it was a dream that caused her to do what she did seeing as there was no injuries inflicted upon her.

"W-well in my dream I was laying in my bed thinking about Naruto-kun just after father bid me good night when Naruto-kun came flying through the window landing on my floor." Hinata told them.

"Was there a reason for him to come into your room like that did he say anything to you?" Tsunade asked her trying to get to the bottom of the problem.

"Well he apologized to me and told me that he loves me but he can't stay and that he has to go." Hinata told them leaving out the part were Naruto had returned to her after already leaving the village because of the hateful villagers.

"He had to leave? Were did he have to go and why couldn't he stay?" Tsunade asked getting very worried that her adoptive grandson may have done something that could cause his friends and her especially to hurt.

"In my dream Naruto-kun told me he left the village because he said that everyone but me doesn't want him in the village and that he came back to me to tell me he loves me because he didn't want to live with any regrets." Hinata told them not even bothering to hide that Naruto left in her dream knowing that they were going to find out from her one way or another.

"Thank you Hinata you may go back to sleep if you would like in the mean time I need to speak with your father, Hiashi." Tsunade said to Hinata then waking out the door calling to Hiashi.

"Hokage-sama? What do you think is wrong with my daughter?" Hiashi asked the leader of the village.

"Hiashi have you ever heard people having a love so strong for someone that they can feel and tell things about their object of love that no one else can tell?" Tsunade asked the Hyuuga clan leader.

"It's very rare but yes I have heard of that, why may you ask?" Hiashi said not getting what the Hokage was getting at.

"I believe that Hinata may have that for Naruto that's why. ANBU!" Tsunade explained then called some ANBU to the scene.

The ANBU appeared seconds later awaiting orders from their leader. Ten ANBU in all appeared in the clearing that Tsunade and Hiashi were standing in.

"You five I want you to stay here and guard the Hyuuga compound until I release you and you five I want you to go over to Naruto's apartment and see if he is there if he is not search the village."
