Naruto: The Last Kyuubi

Chapter Two

After the battle:

Hinata stood outside Hyuga Clan gates, looking up wishfully to her window. She was never coming back.

Hinata had lost the agniki, banned, and told that only when she captured the Kyuubi could she return with her honor. Hinata had only heard rumors about the Kyuubi. She heard that he was a troublemaker and reeked havoc everywhere he went.

There was a murder about three weeks ago, and everyone hating the Kyuubi, blamed him, even though they had no proof.

Hinata turned away from the castle, tears in her eyes. She started to walk away when she heard someone call out for her. She turned and saw Neji running toward her.

He ran up and opened the gate. "What are you doing, leaving with out me?" Neji asked/

"You're coming with me? You would give up the attention of being an only child of a first born to live with me?" Hinata asked, shocked.

"Are you kidding? I can't take living like that. The pressure of being perfect, everyone expecting you to grow up, marry a lovely princess, and live happily ever after? No way. I want adventure, I want to take risks and live with thrill." Neji said. Hinata was touched.

"Does uncle know?" She asked.

"Pfft, of course not." Neji said. "Now let's catch us some Kyuubi!"

Hinata smiled. She loved Neji with all her heart. He was the best big brother a girl like Hinata could have.

So they walked until they were out of Konaha. They walked and walked and walked. Finally, nightfall was approaching. Hinata realized that she had been thrown out before she could pack. Luckily, Neji had packed everything from a flashlight to a few weeks worth of food.

They set up the tent, but laid under the stars. It was a cloudless night, and the stars winked down on them like a million fireflies.

"So where was the Kyuubi last seen?" Hinata asked Neji.

"Somewhere in the Hidden Village of Sand." Prince Neji responded. "And if we are doing this, we need fake names. I'm sure that by now Father had noticed my absence and sent out a search party."

Hinata agreed, and they decided that Prince Neji was now Roiyaru and Princess Hinata was now Taiyou.

Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi- Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi- Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi-Kyuubi

When they awoke the next morning, they packed up and left the campground, making sure that all evidence that they were there was erased.

Soon, they reached the Village of sand. When they entered the village, they were greeted with angry and sometimes scared looks. Roiyaru and Taiyou tried to ignore it and kept searching for the Kyuubi. After an hour of searching, they decided to take a break and have lunch at a motel. They had to rent a room if they wanted to eat, so they did.

At the diner, they overheard two men behind them talking. They caught the words "Kyuubi" and "Trouble" so they leaned in slightly to listen.

"I hear that Kyuubi been makin' mo trouble than usual. Damn punk." The first man said gruffly, clearly drunk.

"I hear he murder some body other week." The second man said. "They got no leads 'cept one."

"Wats that?" The first man said.

"I hear that ol' bastard is a-hidin' out in the desert. Hidin' behind the sand dunes. Planin his next murder, mos likely."

Roiyaru and Taiyou kept listening, and also found out the Kyuubi actually had a name: Naruto.

A/N: Yay! Chapter 2! In addition, a little side note: Roiyaru means loyal and Taiyou means sun. Don't ask.
