A Helping Hand
"Men talk of killing time, while time quietly kills them". -Dion Boucicault
Hinata could tell Neji was still alive so she quickly ran from the house hoping to catch up with Naruto before he showed up at her home . "NARUTO-KUN!!" she cried out. "WHERE ARE YOU?!" She stumbled around the woods screaming for help, crying helplessly.
"Hinata-chan?" Inzuka Kiba ran up to her with Akamaru. He put his arms around her. "Whats the matter, babe? You look like you've just watched someone die. What the hell happened?" Hinata snuggled her face into Kiba's shoulder and cried. She wiped her tears with her sleeves.
"Oh, Kiba-kun. Its my brother. And Naruto-kun. Neji... Nejis is going to kill him. I feel so awful because I helped! Oh Kiba-kun!" The child cryed harder. Her teammate patted her back and held her close.
"Its okay, baby. I'll help you. We can fix this. What time was Naruto expected at your house?"
"In..." Hinata glanced at the large clock in the town that she could see thought the trees. "In about half an hour."
"Then that gives us not much time. Come on Akamaru. Hinata." The teammates ran towards the village with the puppy tailing close behind.
