Hinata's courage

Hinata rushed forward and attacked the Hollow's legs, crippling it quite effectively. However, she used up so much chakra that she passed out.

"I don't believe it... She hurt it. Dance... Sode no Shirayuki. Some no Mai: Tsukishiro! Ichigo! Take her to Orihime's! I'll perform the konso on the boy so that he can move on to the afterlife."

"Ummm... I'm not dead... WAIT! Did you say Ichigo? As in Ichigo Kurosaki?"

Upon closer inspection as Ichigo said yeah, Rukia noticed that Naruto didn't have a chain of fate meaning that he wasn't dead to begin with.

"Take us to the man named Kisuke Urahara. Please."

"How do you know Urahara? Do you know her?"

"Yeah... That's Hinata Hyuuga... *sigh* I'll explain later."

"Alright... How do you know her?"

"We came from the same village."

Ichigo knew that this was all he was gonna get out of the blonde, so he lead the way to Urahara's.

"HEY URAHARA! OPEN UP!"

"Ara... Kurosaki! Kuchiki! How are you?"

"Fine... This guy wants to speak with you."

"Sure lets head inside and have some tea while we talk."

When the tea was served, Naruto wove his tale. When he finished Urahara nodded his head.

"I see... well then... Let's wake your girlfriend up so I can train you two to become Soul Reapers."

Naruto just blushed as he waved a vial of smelling salts under Hinata's nose and she woke up with a start.

"Come on Hinata-chan."

They followed him downstairs into his underground training grounds.

"Alright... So what's this training Urahara?"

"First... Standstill..." he then poked them with his cane.

"Alright... I suppose that it's harder for you to breath now right? Your first obstacle is to land a hit on the powerhouse known as Ururu."

"Alright... where is Ururu

"Down here... Please put this on Mr. Uzumaki... It will help protect you from serious harm."

"Okay... Now then... Let's do this."

"Ready? BEGIN!"

Ururu was upon Naruto in that instance and went for a hay-maker from the left to which Naruto ducked under. She demolished the boulder behind him.

'HOLY SHIT! She's going to kill me! This is almost like being attacked by Granny Tsunade again... THAT'S IT!'

Naruto dodged and dodged and finally threw an uppercut and hit Ururu on the jaw.

"Very good! 5 hours! It took Ichigo a whole day!"

"Tch... *panting heavily* what now?"

"Now for Hinata to under go the same thing."

'Holy Shit! and Clogs is really trying to kill us.'

"Ready? Begin!"

It went around pretty much the same except Hinata barely tapped Ururu on the shoulder and dislocated it.

Urahara noticing the dislocated shoulder flashed forward and held Ururu back as she tried to kill Hinata.

"Alright then... Tessai!"

"Right! 1st is Mr. Uzumaki!"

Then Tessai came forth and severed the chain that connected them to their bodies and Urahara shoved him down a hole.

"Damn... Shattered Shaft Training... Feel sorry for them."

"Why?"

"This training method produces either Arrancars or Vizards."

Rukia just gasped and gulped in fear.

"WHAT THE HELL URAHARA?"

"You have 72 hours to find your Zanpakuto or you'll turn into a Hollow & then we'll have to kill you. Now then go into your inner world and find your Zanpakuto."

"*sigh* Fine..."

Then Naruto began to meditate as he was taught to do when going into Sage Mode.

Naruto Inner World

He was in a clearing in a forest. There before him stood a very beautiful and very naked woman. Let's not forget that she also had 15 tails and a pair of ears on top of her head.

"Ah... It seems that you have come at last... Quickly though! You barely have any time to do this! Your Inner World is already falling apart! Inside one of these 15 twisters is your Zanpakuto! Here's a hint… look for the color red."

"But wait! Who are you?"

"I am the manifestation of your Zanpakuto! Now hurry!"

"Fine!"

Naruto scanned the twisters and wasn't finding anything that discerned one from the other.

'*sigh* Think Naruto… *groans* This isn't exactly my strong point… Hmmm? What the? A red ribbon? A red ribbon!'

Then Naruto followed the ribbon to the ninth twister.

"It just has to be the ninth twister"

Naruto then jumped into the twister and followed the current up to a chest in the air. When he opened the chest, there was the handle to a sword. He grabbed it and tugged.

Outside

There was a surge of energy and Naruto jumped up and out of the hole with a bone like mask on. It looked fox like.

Naruto removed the mask and crushed it with his hand saying that it irritated him and withdrew a boken.

Tessai then rushed forward and cut Hinata's chain of fate and Urahara shoved her down the hole.

Hinata immediately began to meditate as she fell.

With Hinata in her Inner World

Hinata awoke to being in a massive river. In the center was a shrine inside of a whirlpool with a chest inside. Sharks, mines, currents, more whirlpools, and stone soldiers guarded the shrine. Next to her was a man that looked like a cross between the 4th Hokage and Kakashi Hatake.

"As you can see… This is the place in which I reside in."

"I see… HOW THE HELL AM I GOING TO GET THERE?"

"Calm down… This place is already unstable from your hollowification. You can do this. Go."

Hinata nodded her head and swam there. The sharks attacked her, but she deftly dodged them.

"Not bad… But you can do better, keep going… It's not going to get any easier."

"I know."

Hinata just continued forward towards the shrine. As she swam towards the mines, they moved closer to her. She knew that if she didn't swim any faster, then the mines were going to detonate upon her. She passed them when they collided with each other thus exploding behind her and sending her forward towards a current. She dodged it barely and continued towards the shrine. She swam stealthily into the shrine, making sure not to disturb the stone soldiers and entered the shrine and opened the chest and grabbed the handle of her Zanpakuto and tugged.

(A/N: Anyone guess the Zanpakuto's names yet?)

Outside

Hinata excreted a large amount of energy as she jumped out of the hole. Her mask looked demonic in nature.
