Uh-uh, I'm a bit disappointed… I mean, only 3 reviews for the 2nd chapter? T.T Was it that bad?

Well I must admit it was kinda a test… u know, the internet is full of "Itachi the Blind" stuff (just check out the "Fun with Akatsuki" series on YouTube xD very hilarious xD) and I hoped "Sasuke the Blind" would get an equal number of fans… so it's kinda hard writing that chapter (the 3rd, I mean…) not knowing what u think about it… I had planned on either making the blindness a side effect of tsukiyomi (let's say he found out tsukiyomi is the fastest way to cool down Juugo, but since he just acquired the mangekyou, he's not yet acquainted with the side effects :P) or a permanent thing (with Shino-like sunglasses and a ninja hound guiding him all the time xD)… I think I'll manage to stall, but please let me know T.T

P.S. a little change in the chapter title :P


Summary…

Heck, the author is so mean… why didn't he show what appened at the meeting at the Hokage tower? And why he has to end the chapter when the (supposed) NaruHina fluff was about to start? And what about the weird title?

Maybe you'll have your answer in that chapter… who knows? Just R&R!


Disclaimer

Yes, I do own Naruto! And that's exactly the reason I'm writing a fanfic instead of putting this in the next chapter of the manga… figures…


Chapter 3

What the hell?

It sucked! Why did she have to be the only genin in her age without a three-men cell? Heck, why did she have to be the only genin in her age, by the way? It wasn't fair… even her sister – her clumsy, shy, weak parody of a sister – managed to get her own three-man cell… well, she muttered, maybe her sister wasn't the best example she could get to prove her point… it was common knowledge that her class was the best Konoha had seen since… since a lot of time – the "Rookie 9", as they were called – … heck, three of them even manage to become the pupil of the legendary Sannin… people even started to referring to them as "the second coming of the legendary Sannin"… if only place could be shifted, she would be the heir, she would be friend with such amazing people… she would have her own three-fucking-men cell, damn it!

Hanabi sighed, looking out of the window. Remember the training, remember her father words… no time to regret, no time to lose herself in those childish "what if"… hell, she was 12 now, and she was a genin… part of the ninja society she longed to belong to since as far as she could remember… and she got a summon from the Hokage herself!

She stood up from her bed, looking at her reflection in the mirror. Acceptable, she thought. Of course! She was a Hyuga after all, and a very proud one too. She was elite. No matter what her feelings were, she learned long ago to put on a façade to hide them under a cold mask, exactly like her father and her cousin did. But being an adolescent ninja, and being a very very very lonely one – she was the only one in her class to actually graduate, and she had no friends – wasn't exacty helping… Ah, screw that!

With a determined look on her face, the young Hyuuga leapt from the window of her room, taking out to the Hokage building at full speed, jumping from roof to roof in the early evening's sun.


meanwhile, Ichiraku's ramen stand…

"HINATA-CHAN" shouted our favourite blonde, right in the face of the poor girl in his arms.

The Hyuuga heiress eyes shoot open "WAAAAAAAAAAaaaa-a…a… N-N-Naruto-kun?" she asked, eyes still wide open, cheeks as red as tomatos. The blonde grinned, his face inches from hers

"Ne, ne, Hinata-chan! You're awake. I knew it would have worked!" he stated proudly

"NA-RU-TO! Are you a dobe?! You shouted in her ears, of course she's awake! BAKA!" yelled Ayame, the daughter of the owner, punching Naruto on the head Sakura-style. The blonde sweatdropped 'Geez, I knew bringing Sakura-chan here every time wasn't a good idea after all… She's getting on Ayame too… I can survive one Sakura, but two of them?' thought the blonde, dismissing the idea with a nervous laught

"A-ano…" muttered Hinata, who had regained the standing position "t-there's r-really no problem a-at all… t-thank you f-for w-waking me up, N-Naruto-kun" blushing like mad, looking at a very interesting spot between her feet and poketing her index finger together

"Ne, ne, you're welcome Hinata-chan" replyed the blonde, scratching the back of his neck "Alright ramen time, dattebayo!" shouted then, jumping on his chair and drooling in anticipation. Hinata giggled sitting on the chair next to him.

Naruto turned to face her, his trademark grin printed on his face "Ne, Hinata-chan, have I ever told you you should smile more often? You're really cute when you do!"


Still jumping from rooftop to rooftop, Hanabi was closing the distance to her goal… She liked to pass throught Konoha like that, too high and fast to bee seen, but close enough to hear pieces of conversation…

"…and so he told me 'go!', and I…"

"…but guess what? He couldn't find it…"

"…it's not like that… well…"

"…nonsense, you're coming right now…"

"…you sure you don't have a fever, Hinata-chan?..."

Stop! Hinata? Not 'her' Hinata, right?

"…you're so red, and you fainted two times in the last five minutes…"

Ok, it was 'her' Hinata after all, sweatdropped the youngest Hyuga. She jumped on the street and peeked from a corner. Indeed, her sister was there… indeed, she was red as a tomato. But wait… she was with a boy? Hanabi's eyes widened slightly. Her weird, shy, plain sister eating lunch with a boy… wow… and not 'a' boy, she noticed, but 'the' boy! Well, technically Hanabi didn't know Naruto, but 'hidden' under Hinata's bed lays a box full of photos… and since three quarters of the photos were of that blonde-haired boy, and since Hanabi was everything but stupid…

The young kunoichi smirked… well, technically she wasn't late yet, and she could use a little time having fun at her sister back!


"…and so I jumped on him with my Super-Awesome-Rasen-Shuriken and he…" Hinata giggled at Naruto antics… he was so into the story he even stopped eating to illustrate with ample gestures the battle with Kakuzu…

"Onee-chan!" suddenly, out of nowhere, her younger sister was at her neck, hugging her like there was no tomorrow. 'What the hell?!'… Hanabi never ever ever was so emotive, and knowing her little sister's prankster attitude, Hinata began sweating

"H-Hanabi-chan…"

"Onee-chan! I was searching you for the whole morning" pouted Hanabi… then, she tourned toward Naruto "Ah! You're the guy from the photos! …uhm… am I interrupting something?"

Hinata blushed "Ha-Hanabi!"

"Uhm? What photos?" Asked Naruto, puzzled. Hanabi smirked, while Hinata turned as red as a tomato "Ah-ano…y-you see… I-I…"

"Oh, no big deal. Anyway, I'm Hanabi Hyuga, her" pointing at the blushing kunoichi "sister" greeted Hanabi, flashing a ear-to-ear smile

"Nice to meet you" bowed the blonde "I'm NarutoUzumazi, next Hokage and" "Hinata's boyfriend!" interrupted Hanabi, still smiling, spitting image of innocence

Naruto's eyes widened and Hinata entered in panic mode "A-ah… c-chotto matte… I-I… h-he…"

"Oh, no need to be shy sister, I'm twelve now, I know how those things works…" whispered Hanabi, loud enough for Naruto to hear "In fact, I myself was searching for a mate…" elbowing her sister "Is he good enough in bed?"

Never ever ever had the youngest Hyuga seen something as red as her sister now "A-a-ah… I-I-I…" Hanabi decided to push Hinata a little more "Uhm… maybe I could borrow him…" Naruto's jaw fell to the floor "…please? …only for a night?" unable to blush more, Hinata fainted on the spot "aaahw" whined Hanabi, who had just lot her toy. Unable to contain herself more, turned to Naruto, who was frozen with both eyes and mouth wide open and a shocked expression on his face, and waved "Well, see ya!" and jumped away.

When she was sure of being out of ear range, Hanabi started giggling, and by the time he reached the Hokage tower, he was laughing her ass out.


some time later, Hokage office…

"Come in!" shouted Tsunade.

The door opened, and Naruto, followed by Hinata, entered the room. They looked a little stranded, Naruto wasn't shouting and Hinata wasn't blushing… they seemed… shocked!

"You look strange" pointed the blonde woman "Were you two making out?" teased, smirking

"Obaa-chaaaaaaaan" whined loudly Naruto, while Hinata blushed a deep crimson. The blonde Hokage smiled softly: all back to normality! another mission successfully completed by the most attractive fifty-years-old woman in Konoha! yeah!

"Ok, ok… back to work… Naruto, have you told her alredy?"

'Uh? Told me what?' thinked the blu-haired kunoichi

"Of course not! You told me I couldn't remember?" pointed the Hokage-wannabe

"Ok, ok, sorry I doubted you" smiled Tsunade 'He really has grown. With the Naruto of a couple of years ago, by now all the village would have known…' "Hinata, yesterday night Uchiha Sasuke returned to Konoha of his own will, and requested to be re-integrated in the ninja ranks" explained the blonde. Hinata's eyes widened in shock, her gaze shifting to Naruto, who was grinning happily "After close examination, we decided he's no longer a threat, and after a rehab period of a couple of months, if judged idoneous, he'll be reintegrated in the militia. Same treatment will be reserved at his companions that came with him. They'll be under constant ANBU watch and they're forbidden to take part in any mission. Other than that, they're free to go anywhere they want… I told you so you won't freak out when you see them around" smirked the blonde Sannin. Hinata nodded in understanding.

"Ok! That point cleared, let's go on with the reason I called you there. Starting today, team7 and team8 are disbanded" "NANI?!" bursted Naruto, promptly silenced by a punch in the face that send him flying through the wall

"…as I was saying before the dobe interrupted" re-started a pissed Hokage… that was the 8th time in the day she was interrupted… always at the same point… "team7 and team8 are disbanded, as well as team9, team10 and team Gai. You all have been reassigned, and will meet your team leaders tomorrow morning at 7 at the academy… Hinata, class 13A, Naruto class 114D. Report the news to the dobe. Further questions will be answered by your team leaders. Dismissed" said the bonde, waving to the door. Hinata bowed and leaved the room in silence… Tsunade was clearly tired and pissed, and she now better than question her when she was like that… plus, she had to find Naruto… with a little luck, the punch was so strong he needed someone to take care of him. Hinata giggled at the idea of her taking care of her Naruto-kun, and jumped after him trough the holes his body made in the walls…


Next Chapter – Team Anko and Team Shizune

Author Notes
