Chapter Two:

As the crowd of high school children slowly exited the school bus, while on a routine field trip to a national forest outside the city.

We see two young female students still inside the bus, a pink hair colored girl and a a midnight colored hair girl with light lavender eyes, sill sitting inside the school bus

"Hinata...Why can't you focus on normal girl things for once?" The pink colored hair girl said as she and the other girl were watching the beginning of a match on the other girl's laptop.

"Bu...But Sakura, this is recorded footage of the final round of this year's Street Fighter Tournament." Hinata said.

"Oh who's that guy coming into the ring, he's cute." Sakura asked.

"That's Saskue Uchia , the current champion." Hinata replied.

"And what about him?" Sakura asked as the challenger entered the ring.

"Th...That's...Nar...Naruto Uzu...Uzumaki." Hinata said with a blush.

"He...He's a newcomer...And before this year's tournament...No one has even heard of him."

They both watched as the competitors each took their fighting stances.

"Well I can already tell that Saskue is gonna beat the tar outta that blonde hair wanna be CHAAA!" Sakura said as the fight began.

The girls were astounded as the combatants exchanged blow per blow, and were amazed at the fighting level of both competitors.

"Look Saskue is gonna finish the fight with this last move!" Sakura shouted.

"But look...Naruto is leaping into the air as well." Hinata said.

They watched as the newcomer threw one last punch at the champion.

" See It didn't even make contact." Sakura said.

Both girls were shocked as an invisible force from Naruto's punch sent Saskue flying through the air and crashing into the bleachers.

"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT!" Sakura shouted while shaking her fists in the air.

"In...Incredible." Hinata said to herself.

"He was able to shoot a huge amount of his energy in that last punch."

"Huh what was that?" Sakura asked.

"Nothing, nothing."

Suddenly a male teacher rushed onto the bus, frantically searching for the two girls.

"WHAT ARE YOU TWO STILL DOING ON THE BUS, YOU'RE SUPPOSE TO BE WITH THE REST OF THE CLASS!"

"Sorry sensei." Both girls shouted as they quickly gathered their belongings and ran off the bus.

Moments after the girls had caught up with the group, Sakura notice a faint blush on Hinata's face.

"Eh, Hinata what are you thinking of?" Sakura asked with a devilish grin.

"N...Nothing!" Hinata blurted out while the blush on her face grew darker.

"Oh...Well is it that Saskue from the video we watch...Or that Naruto guy?"

Sakura noticed how Hinata flinched the moment she mentioned his name.

"So it was Naruto then eh?"

Hinata then hid her dark red face behind her hands.

"S...Sakura please n...Not so loud."

"Oh relax Hinata you know I'm just kidding." Sakura said as she gently patted Hinata's back.

"So aside from what we saw in the video, have you heard of anything else on this Naruto kid?"

"We...Well...I found out that...He's from Japan...He's sixteen...And because he was in the last Street Fighter Tournament, he spent some time in America."

Sakura then tilted her head up while rubbing the bottom of her chin.

"So he's sixteen, a good year older than you. And that he's from Japan like us eh?" She then began to giggle.

"Maybe you'll have a chance encounter with him and fall in love eh Hinata?" Sakura giggle while gently rubbing her elbow into Hinata's side.

Sakura was surprised when Hinata didn't respond.

"Hey Hinata are you..."

Just before Sakura could finish her sentence, she noticed how Hinata was staring off into the distance. She turned her attention towards the same direction and noticed how Hinata was staring at a young man in a dark orange and black toad themed hoodie. As he was walking down a path that lead deep into the mountains .

"No way..." Sakura said in awe.

"It...It's...H...Him..." Hinata said.

"I...I have to see him." Hinata said as she quickly ran towards him.

"HINATA WAIT!" Sakura shouted as she followed Hinata into the forest.

The two young girls were amazed at how the young fighter was able to stay ahead of them even though they were running as fast as their bodies would let them.

"Hinata...You know were so screwed if the teacher catches us this far into the forest unchaperoned." Sakura said in between breaths.

"I don't care!" Hinata replied as she some how gained more speed.

"I can't explain it...But I just have to..." But just before she could finish her sentence, Hinata suddenly lost her footing and tumbled down the hillside. As she slide through nearby trees and bushes, she suddenly felt weightless as though she was some how able to fly. But once she saw the bottom of the deep ravine, and felt the force of gravity returning. She knew she was slowly falling to her doom.

"HINATA!" Sakura shouted.

Unaware to the girls, while treading down the lower half of the hill side. The young man had heard Sakura's screams of terror.

"Whoa what was that?" The young man asked as he quickly turned around while pulling down his hood.

To his shock he watched as a young girl was slowly falling from above the hill side and into the caverns below.

"Oh no if that girl falls into the caverns, she's a goner..."The young man said as he felt his body slowly moving into action.

"Just hang on kid I'm coming!" The young man shouted as he gathered the energy within himself.

"I only got one shot at this!" The young man said just before he leapt off a nearby cliff.

Just as the young man jumped, he released his all of his gathered energy and shot himself through air.

Both girl's were astounded at the young man's speed as he caught Hinata in midair.

"Gotchya!" The young man shouted as he and the young girl flew through the air and crashed into a nearby mountainside.

"HINATA!" Sakura shouted.

But just as she expected the worst, a silhouette of two people against the rock wall appeared through the cloud of dust.

"No way..." Sakura said in awe.

Upon further inspection it had appeared that the young man had drove his right fist and right foot deep against the wall, while avoiding any injuries to Hinata.

"Hey you okay?" The young man asked, while Hinata laid trembling in his arm.

"Wh...What?" Hinata asked.

As she turned her attention towards the young man, she suddenly felt even more weaker then she already did.

"Y...Y...You're..." Hinata struggled to say.

"Heh, let's save the formalities for later kid. Right now let's see about getting you into more...appropriate accommodations." The young man said as he leapt himself and Hinata into the air.

He then jumped form one ledge to another and brought himself and the girl back to the top of the hillside.

Once safely back ground, the young man gently placed the young girl onto the ground while he caught his breath.

"Hey...Huff huff...You...Didn't...Answer my...Huff huff...question." The young man said.

"Oh...Oh...I...I'm fine...Th...Thanks to you." The young girl said with a blush.

Suddenly a stream of blood ran down the side of her face.

"Oh no you're bleeding." The young man said as he gently placed his hand on the young girl's forehead.

Suddenly the girl's face grew red.

"And you're starting to run a fever too." The young man said as he quickly grabbed his backpack.

"Oh man I don't have anymore bandages." The young man said.

"But I got this." He said as he pulled out a long white headband.

"I haven't worn this in awhile, but don't worry it's clean." The young man said as he poured water from his water bottle on the headband.

"There and...done." The young man said as he tightly wrapped his headband around the young girl's forehead.

"Th...Thanks." The young girl said as her blush grew darker.

"So what's your name kid?" The young man asked.

"O...Oh...M...My name is...Hi...Hinata Hyuga." The young girl said.

"Well nice to meet ya Hinata my name is..."

"I...I know...Na...Naruto...U...Uzumaki."

"Okay...I'm getting major stalker vibes coming from this one." Naruto said to himself as he laughed awkwardly.

"I...Uh...Watched your last battle...On the internet." Hinata said with an shy smile.

"Oh...So then that means you're interested in fighting huh?" Naruto said.

"We...Well..."Hinata began to say.

"HINATA...HINATA!" Another female voice shouted.

As a pink colored haired girl ran up towards the two, Naruto quickly put his hood back on and vanished without a trace.

"Oh thank goodness you're alright Hinata." Sakura said as she held tightly onto Hinata.

"Ye...Yeah...All thanks to..." Hinata said as she looked all around the hill side for him.

"Wh...Where did he go?" Hinata asked.

"Who?" Sakura asked.

Hinata then looked to the ground with a disappointed look on her face.

"N...Nothing."

"Hey Hinata...Where'd ya get that headband?" Sakura asked as she pointed to the headband on her forehead.

"O...Oh...Well...I guess...You can say..." Hinata said.

"It was a gift from a friend." The young girl said with a smile.
