Also as I said in the last chapter there will be a new AC in this story so I hope you all like what I have worked out. Anyways enough of the talk lets start the chapter.
Chapter 2: The secret revealed
Hinata arose to the scent of ramen that's was spreading throughout the apartment. "I guess naruto's making breakfast" hinata chuckled to herself.
Hinata slid out of bed and quickly turned on the shower. She knew naruto already had his due to the water residue that still clung to the walls of the shower.
Hinata was just about to walk out of the bathroom when naruto embraced her as she was walking out of the door. "Good morning hina chan" naruto cooed. "Good morning naru Kun" hinata replied. Naruto and hinata only used there nicknames when it was just them and when they were both happy.
"We have to get going pretty soon so we should eat quickly" naruto smiled releasing hinata. Hinata sighed a heavy sigh "alright I'll get dressed" hinata replied as she walked into there bedroom.
Naruto and hinata ate there ramen breakfast in relative silence since it was about five minutes and then they were out the door. "Did you have to go see tsunade Sama when you got back last time naruto Kun" hinata asked as the walked the short distance to the hokage tower.
"No jiraya wen't straight back to the village the last time. Naruto replied. Hinata sighed. "I can't believe he left us like that back in the cloud village" she said sounding a little annoyed. "He did that to me all the time on the first trip, I think the only reason he hung around as long as he did was to try to get a glimpse at you" naruto replied beginning to sound annoyed himself.
"I wonder why he never tried anything" hinata asked bringing her finger to her chin to think. "Because he knew I'd kick his ass if he did" naruto replied frowning. "Oh naruto Kun" hinata sighed latching onto his arm.
Outside the hokage's office
Naruto and hinata walked up to the door of tsunade's office. Naruto raised his hand to knock when he heard tsunade call for them to enter. Naruto opened the door and led hinata and himself inside.
"Hey tsunade Sama" naruto smiled.
"Well it looks like you are no longer calling me grandma tsunade" tsunade smiled. "And you look well hinata how are you" she said motioning towards hinata.
"I am doing very well tsunade sama thank you" hinata replied with a smile. "Uhh about coming in late, I'm really sorry" naruto added scratching the back of his head. Tsunade raised an eyebrow "it's not me you should be apologizing to it's him" tsunade motion over to the wall opposite of her desk.
Naruto slowly turned around to see a young man about his age with brown spiky hair. He was wearing a red sleeveless shirt and baggy black pants with several chains hanging out of the pockets on each side. Naruto also noticed that this mans right arm was completely bandaged from his shoulder down to the tips of his finger. Naruto went tense when he saw the mans village headband, It was kumogakure. Tsunade felt naruto tense up. "Easy naruto he's an ally" tsunade sighed. Naruto slowly eased up as did hinata who tensed up right after naruto.
Tsunade sighed again. "There are three reasons I asked you two to come yesterday, the first is your promotion to jonin class shinobi which I'm sure jiraya has informed you about". Both naruto and hinata nodded in reply. "Good then I can I can inform you about your new team member" tsunade smiled.
"You mean him" naruto asked calmly motioning towards the young man still leaning against the wall.
"Yes naruto him" tsunade sighed. "Tsukasa". Naruto looked over at the man who had just opened his eye's to acknowledge them for the first time. The mans eye's had no pupils just plain brown iris's. Naruto thought it looked a little creepy. "My name is Tsukasa Sagara" the now identified cloud ninja replied.
"Yes tsukasa here is a jonin from the hidden cloud village, officially he is here as part of the cloud-leaf village alliance but… unofficially he is here as part of our new akatsuki hunter unit" tsunade's face went serious.
"Akatsuki hunter unit" naruto repeated curiously. "Yes it was developed while you were away; it is a select few squads of highly trained shinobi who will work outside of konoha to bring a swift defeat to the major threat of akatsuki and you and hinata are a part of it naruto" tsunade's slight smirk was evident through her cupped hands. "But for now I want you three to get acquainted with each other" she added motioning to the door. Naruto looked at Tsukasa carefully as if he was sizing up an opponent. Although this new shinobi was from a newly allied village and on the same team Naruto still didn't trust Tsukasa.
Tsukasa walked out of the room followed by naruto and finally hinata. "Once the door closed tsunade breathed a heavy sigh "I sense a fight coming".
Naruto and tsukasa walked through the streets of konoha separated by a small arms length gap between them with hinata following in the center a short step behind them.
Hinata was frequently glancing from naruto to tsukasa. "So tsukasa what kind of jutsu do you use" naruto asked breaking the silence. "You will see once we enter combat" tsukasa replied still keeping his eyes closed.
"HINNNNAAAATAAAAA!!!!!" A loud screech from behind them cried making hinata's shoulders rise and shake rapidly. Hinata slowly turned around only to be glomped by ino, sakura and tenten.
Hinata was glomped into the ground by the three kunoichi who had just called her name. Tsukasa had just opened his eyes to see hinata being tackled to the ground and let out a small chuckle while naruto was holding his sides in laughter. Ino looked up and smirked at naruto "you shouldn't be laughing naruto" ino winked.
"SPINNING DYNAMIC ENTRY" another voice cried as a green jump suited silhouette sped toward naruto with incredible speed. Naruto looked up just in time to be nailed in the face by two spinning heels which in turn sent him flying 300 meters down the street.
"Naruto I thought I told you to pay attention at all times" lee called down the street to the crater which naruto was embedded in.
"Thanks lee for your help" sakura smiled as she ran off down the street with tenten and ino in tow who was dragging hinata along with her. "Don't worry naruto we'll have her home by eleven" tenten called out poking her head into the crater.
Naruto gave a semi-conscious thumbs up of approval although he knew he had no choice in the matter.
Hinata's friends knew how protective naruto was of hinata so they decided to enlist the help of lee to make sure they could get away.
Naruto's head finally stopped spinning and the first thing he saw was lee offering his hand of assistance.
"And I've told you before not to warn people before you attack them" a voice from behind him came. Lee turned around to see naruto standing casually outside the crater. Lee looked at the naruto in the crater only to see it disappear in a plume of smoke. "lee smiled a sparkling smile and jumped out of the crater to greet his friend. "Tell me naruto Kun why didn't you stop ino and the others from taking hinata away" lee asked.
"Well for one hinata's a big girl now and for two she spent a whole two years with me not to mention the all mighty perv jiraya so I think she should se someone else for a change" naruto smirked.
"Very well then we shall go meet shikamaru, sasuke and neji for our afternoon drink" lee smirked as he jumped onto the roofs. "For some reason the sound of lee drinking worry's me" naruto sighed. "Hey you coming tsukasa" naruto called to his new team mate who was leaning up against a nearby fence. "As long as they have cold sake" tsukasa replied. Naruto smirked "we'll have to see when we get there".
Kazama's tavern.
Although lee had not decreased his obnoxiousness he had really increased his speed so he ended up getting there about five minutes earlier than naruto and tsukasa. As they walked into the small tavern located just across the street from training ground number 87 naruto noticed that the place looked like an armoured bunker. "Well it is located across from a training ground" tsukasa said looking around the small tavern which was decorated with wooden bar furniture.
Naruto glanced at the counter to see sasuke and neji wrapping lee up in some kind of straight jacket. "Um what the hell is this naruto asked walking over with tsukasa in tow. "I am a master of the drunken fist style therefore special items are required for me to drink alcohol" lee smiled. Naruto and tsukasa sweat dropped as they sat down at the bar.
Naruto ordered a bottle of beer as did neji sasuke and lee. Tsukasa however ordered the more traditional ice cold sake. "I wonder what hinata is doing right now" naruto sighed taking a swig of his beer.
