Chapter 4 people! It's awesome and I finally updated for this story...

I know it's been awhile but I had some other things to deal with and besides that, I'm trying not to make the same mistakes I made with Naruto of the Immortal Clan... It's an awesome story [which you should check out sometime...] but I also made a few mistakes that I wished I could fix but it's too late now...

On a side note, I got this review where it says I ruined the story by making it a Naruhina pairing... Yeah, the nerve of him/her right? He/she said because of the pairing, it's going to make story harder for me to make believable...

Wanna know what I think? I think that I don't really give a s#!t! I love Naruhina! I'm a die-hard fan and will never not love it! It is [in my opinion...] the best pairing ever and I support it 100%... You may think it makes the story less believable? You say I ruined my story?! Well guess what, I will make the story believable because since it is AU, I can make it so that the logic will make sense and will make you believe! And this will be a great story because I know that with the help of my BEAT reader, it will be great! SO shove your negative reviews somewhere else because this will be a great story and I will not back down!

Anyways, please enjoy chapter 4 and leave me a review telling me what you think of it...

Chapter 4: A New Challenge Awaits!

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Naruto, but I do own his doujutsu!!!


"See ya later Naruto-kun!" Hinata yelled as she entered her house, leaving Naruto in shock. After team 8 finished eating their ramen, Hinata had asked Naruto if he could walk her to her home. After saying their goodbyes to Shino, they walked to the Hyuuga mansion. On their way there, Hinata was asking Naruto what he thought the test would be on. After a couple of guesses and laughs, they finally reached Hinata's house. In a last minute act, Hinata kissed Naruto in the cheek and ran into her home.

Naruto shook it off and thought about what this meant.

'This could mean that she likes me... But I don't think so. She was probably thanking me, that's all. I shouldn't make too much of it.' Naruto placed his right hand over his heart. 'So why do I feel this pain.'

Naruto turned his head to the direction of the forest. He could've sworn that he saw someone out of the corner of his eye. He kept walking home, hoping to take a long shower and head for bed. Suddenly, Naruto's eyes turned green and a swirl was seen extending out from the pupil, stopping at the sclera. He looked around and wondered how his doujutsu was activated without his consent. As he looked around, he saw that everything has stopped moving; people, bugs, even birds and leaves in the air. The just hung in the air, unmoving and floating.

Naruto didn't know what was happening but he was going to find out. He jumped to the roof of a nearby building and started looking for something suspicious. It didn't take him long to see something because what he saw baffled him.

He saw a green dome like thing surrounding him with a radius of about fifty feet. Naruto's seen this before, it's something he could do but not this big. The biggest he could create was with a radius of about ten feet.

"So you noticed." A voice said behind Naruto. He turned around and saw a dirty blond haired man with a cloak covering his body. His face was rough and passive. He smiled when he saw Naruto's doujutsu active.

"Who are you?" Naruto asked, warily of the new stranger. The stranger's smile never faded.

"So you activated the Jikokugan have you? That's quite impressive for someone so young and inexperienced with it." The stranger said, shocking Naruto.

"J-Jikokugan?" The stranger's smile faded and he tilted his head.

"You mean you didn't know? The Jikokugan is called the 'Time Eye'. It's a very rare doujutsu, only found in members of a certain clan. Do you know which clan?" Naruto shook his head, angering the stranger.

"Those old fools didn't tell you of your origin? Bastards. At any rate, you, Uzumaki Naruto belong to a very elite clan, one that deals assassinations and infiltrations missions. This eye of ours let's us control time, even if it is for a couple of seconds to a couple of hours. The key is to be able to have perfect chakra control." Naruto was registering everything the man just told him, he just didn't believe it.

"I-I'm part of a clan? Which one? And how is this clan able to control time with our eyes?" Naruto asked, wanting to get all the answers. The stranger sighed before answering.

"Yes, you are part of a clan, I thought I told you and I can't answer the second question since no one told you yet and my brother would probably kill me. As for how our clan is able to control time, there is a myth to how we attained our doujutsu. It is said that a mysterious woman ran into one of our ancestors. She was running away from a mob that was, for some reason, after her. Our ancestor graciously offered her a place to hide within his home. After the mob was gone, they both got acquainted with each other. A week later, she was about to leave but our ancestor stopped her, telling her he had fallen in love with this woman.

"The woman did not know what to do, she was a wanderer and could not stay in one place for too long, but stayed with him. A mere year later, the cries of a baby were heard as our ancestor held his and the mysterious woman's child. The mysterious woman fled after giving birth to the child, leaving our ancestor alone with a green-eyed infant. From then on, some generations have gained what we have dubbed the Jikokugan; some have even reached new levels of it. But now, only two remain on this Earth that possess this power. Me... and you."

"B-But... what happened to the rest of the clan?"

"Time is a powerful thing, and to control it even more so, thus people were afraid of the power. Many feared that we would use our doujutsu to take control of the world, though we could have done that, we had no desire to attain so much power. One day, the five Kages held a meeting in secret to decide the fate of the Jikokugan and our clan. Some wished to place a seal on us, much like the seal that the Hyuuga's place on the members of the Branch family. Others still wanted to make us loyal to them, which we would never do. Finally, deciding to end the arguments, one made the argument to eliminate us for the greater good of the people. These Kages, in their great wisdom, agreed. The next night, The Kages sent their hunter nins to eliminate every single member, from children to the elderly, everyone was slaughtered, no one was spared."

Naruto couldn't believe what he was hearing. It was too much to take in and he didn't know how much of it to believe.

"If that's true, then how do we still have the Jikokugan?"

"Because after the mysterious woman gave birth to her first child, she had our ancestor's second child in her, though she didn't find out until her stomach started to show."

"W-Wait, that still doesn't explain how we control time."

The older man sighed again. "That isn't really something you should be concerning yourself with, no one really knows, not even I. What you should focus on is getting stronger for the challenges you'll face in a couple of years. You will face a very distant relative and this will determine the fate of all who are close to you, is they live or if they die. You have to get stronger, you have to get better... but only if you want to save those close to you." The man warned.

Even though Naruto may not have understood everything that the man had told him, he would not be counted a fool for not taking his advice; he just wished that his life wasn't so complicated.

"You're going need this if you want to master the Jikokugan..." the man threw an old looking scroll at Naruto, who caught it and looked at it curiously. He looked up to ask the man another question but he was gone and so was the dome. He looked around but still saw no sign of the man.

He brought his attention back on the scroll in his hands and placed it in his pockets and headed home, replaying the words the man told him again and again.

The man looked on from a distance and smiled.

"Good luck Naruto, you're going to need it."

[*.*.*.*]

Naruto headed for the designated training ground, still a little nervous. Kurenai once warned him of the test new genin are given to prove they're good enough to be called ninjas. She didn't go into detail or exactly how to pass, just to be careful. Now he wished she had explained what they needed to do exactly. He sighed as he saw he was the first one there, he dared not do anything strenuous as it might sap valuable energy from him before this mysterious test. Meditation to calm his nerves proved to be the only logical choice.

Deep in his subconscious, Naruto awoke in a sewer like place, water flooded the halls and reached up to his shins. Naruto looked around the halls into various rooms. One room had a memory of when he was being beaten and losing consciousness. It replayed from the beginning and repeated again when it was over. It kept playing over and over and Naruto couldn't take it anymore. He looked away and saw in another room the time when he went to a store and was sold spoiled food and over charged for it. He continued passing most of the rooms as most of them had bad memories that he wanted to forget.

Only a couple of rooms held happy memories, one was when he first met Hinata.

[*.*.Flashback.*.*]

Hinata was sleeping during one of Iruka's long lectures and he noticed her drooling over her textbook. He looked up to make sure Iruka wasn't paying any attention to him. When he was sure, he poked Hinata to try to wake her up. She stirred for a moment before going back to sleep. He poked her a little harder and she stirred but did not awaken.

Out of ideas, Naruto tried one more thing and he hoped it wouldn't upset her. She started rubbing Hinata's ribs with the tips of his fingers. Hinata smiled and started to giggle. She was starting to wake up but he needed to tickle her more if he wanted her to wake up, so that's what he did. She then burst out laughing, filling the room with her laugh.

Naruto stopped and got a dark shade of red on his face. He didn't really want to stop but he kind of went over board with the tickling. Hinata's laugh started to die down and she looked at Naruto, a small smile on her face until she remembered what she did. She looked at Iruka who had his eyebrow cocked while he looked at her and Naruto.

"Since you two don't seem to be paying attention, it seems a punishment is in order. You both will stay after school and clean this classroom until it's spotless." Iruka told them, making Hinata pout and making Naruto feel bad about getting Hinata in trouble.

After class, Naruto was sadly sweeping and Hinata went into the classroom closet to get something to clean the windows. While she was in there, Naruto was internally debating whether or not to apologize. She came out and he decided to apologize, at least to let her know he didn't mean to get her in trouble. Though he knew she probably would get mad at him and yell at him, that's what everyone did so why not her?

"H-Hinata..." Hinata stopped walking and looked at him curiously. She'd never heard him say anything, well much anyways. It was interesting to see what got him to speak.

"Yes?" She answered. Naruto gulped loudly and rubbed the back of his head, though because he was nervous, he let go of the broom and it fell down. When the sound of the broom hitting the floor filled the room, Naruto almost jumped out of his skin. Hinata giggled and cleared her throat, not wanting to hurt his feelings.

"W-Well, I wanted t-to apologize for making y-you stay after school." Naruto apologized, Hinata tilted her head and looked at him, causing him to blush. He didn't really understand why she made him feel this way but it wasn't like he didn't like it.

"It's ok, I had to do some boring family stuff when I got home and this isn't nearly as boring. By the way, why did you tickle me?" She asked, putting the cloth and spray on the nearest table. Naruto continued to rub his head.

"W-Well... I didn't want y-you to get in trouble with Iruka-sensei... b-but it looked like t-that failed." Naruto said sheepishly. Hinata covered her mouth and giggled.

"I appreciate the help, but next time, try something else." Hinata told him as she closed her eyes and smiled. Naruto nodded his head and Hinata picked up the cloth and spray.

"A-Actually... it's ok, I can clean this b-by myself. You can go h-home if you want." Naruto said, walking over to take the stuff from Hinata's hands. Hinata backed up and put the stuff behind her back.

"Don't worry about it. I already told you if I go home I'll just do some boring stuff. You did me a favor so I'll return it." Hinata said.

"B-But it's not like it's your fault, it's mine. It's my fault you're here..." Naruto was about to continue but she cut him off by placing her finger on his lips.

"Come on, I told you it's ok. If you want to make it up to me you can let me help clean the room and when we're done, you could treat me to some food. You know, between friends." Hinata told him. Naruto's blush returned and he nodded dumbly. Hinata nodded back.

"Great, so hurry up because I'm starving." Hinata turned around and blushed. Naruto didn't see her blush but he never stopped looking at her. He shook his thoughts out of his head and continued sweeping the room.

[*.*.Flashback End.*.*]

Naruto outwardly smiled and felt someone poke him. He opened an eye and saw a worried looking Kurenai, a curious Hinata who was looking over Kurenai's shoulder and the ever-passive Shino stood next to his female teammate. He looked at his team, one after the other.

"Um... Hi." Naruto said, Kurenai sighed and Hinata smiled.

"What were you doing Naruto? You looked dead and you weren't even breathing for a while." Kurenai asked. Naruto looked at her for a while until he shrugged, Kurenai stood straight and looked at her new and first genin team. She was informed she could give them the old bell test, the standard test and one that she had taken herself when she was a fresh genin, but she didn't like that idea. She requested if she could do something new, and after some negotiating the Third Hokage agreed. She smiled at her test and hoped it would work.

"Anyways, now that we're all here, how about we start our test?" and without waiting for an answer from her new subordinates, continued.

"Good, follow me." Kurenai commanded as she walked deeper into the forest. Naruto followed after her with Hinata and Shino falling into step behind him. They walked for about five minutes before Kurenai stopped. Everyone stopped as well and looked at their sensei.

"Ok, this is good enough. Now, the test will actually be a simple one. All you three have to do is get a simple package and scroll from a market five miles west from here. You tell them that you have come to pick it up for me, Yuhi Kurenai, they'll give it to you and you'll go back to the designated training spot. The catch; there is a time limit. You'll have to get the package and return it to me before noon, which is in about six hours so get to it!"

There was a brief pause before the three of them, Naruto, Hinata, and Shino leapt into action, running through the forest to get to the market in time.

"Naruto-kun, do you know where you're going?" Hinata asked. Naruto nodded and they continued to run. After running for about four miles, they decided to take a water break. They stopped at a small waterfall; that water was clean and actually looked cleaner then the water that comes out of Naruto's sink. Naruto and Shino cupped some water in their hands and drank.

Hinata, on the other hand, dunked her whole head into the water, not really caring about her long hair getting wet. After Hinata got her fill, She lifted her head out of the water and shook her head, trying to take out as much water as she could out of her head.

Naruto couldn't stop looking at her; she looked completely cute while he shook her head. Some water splashed into his face and he snapped out of it, ducking his head, he looked at Shino and he had his eyebrow raised as he looked at Naruto. Naruto blushed from embarrassment; he was caught starring at Hinata. He knew Shino wouldn't make fun of him but that didn't necessarily mean he wanted to him to see every embarrassing moment.

Naruto stood and walked under a nearby tree, away from the rest of his team, he leaned against it and looked on as Hinata once again dunked her entire head into the water. Shino had gotten his fill in water and stood under the shade of a tree next to Naruto. Naruto just couldn't stop looking at Hinata, there was just something about her that got Naruto's attention. She was nice, sincere and all around perfect. Yeah her vocabulary and attitude was very strange for someone with her heritage but Naruto didn't care.

He looked to his left and saw Shino also leaning against the tree, though Naruto couldn't tell if he was asleep or just thinking. Either way, he wasn't about to find out because Hinata was walking towards them.

"Everyone good?" She asked. Shino nodded his head.

"Yeah, I-I'm good." Naruto answered. Hinata looked up and looked at the position the sun was in.

"It seems like we have a little less than four hours to get the scroll back. At this rate, we'll pass her little test in no time." Hinata said confidently. Naruto nodded and he, with Shino, followed after Hinata who started running again.

When they finally arrived to the small market, they all inwardly cheered and entered it. In the shop, they saw all kinds of things; from ninja weapons to empty scroll, sake and other essentials. Naruto, for some reason being the unspoken leader, walked up to the counter. There was an old man sitting behind it. He had a gray beard and hair with ragged clothes on and had a small eye patch on his left eye. He looked at Naruto and smiled.

"Hello there," said the elderly man, his voice gravely from years of smoking "What can I do for you?"

"Well, we came to pick up a package for our sensei, her name's Yuhi Kurenai." Naruto meekly told the elderly man. The elderly man's smiled never wavered as he stood.

"Of course of course. Wait there while I go look for it." Naruto nodded and watched as the old man went to get the package. They waited for about five minutes before the old man returned with a small box with a small scroll tied to the side. There was a sticker on top of the box with Kurenai's name and basic living information.

"Thank you." Naruto told the old man while he grabbed the box but the old man didn't let go.

"Let me warn you youngster, this is a very important package that should be delivered to Yuhi-san right away. No distractions, no peeking. Just take it, hand it to her, and that's it." The old man let go of the box and Naruto took it off the counter. The old man smiled and waved.

"Now move along, bandits might come and take this away from you." The old man told them calmly. Hinata raised an eyebrow.

"But what about you? What if they still think you have it?" She asked.

"Don't worry, I have Akio if I have any problems." A big man about six feet tall, twenty-five years old entered the room and had the body of a brick wall. He looked at team Kurenai before bowing to the old man.

"You called father?" Akio asked. The old man shook his head.

"No I didn't but since your here, how about getting your father a nice cup of tea?" Akio nodded and left the room. The old man looked at team Kurenai and waved his hand.

"Now go..." He said and with that, team Kurenai left the small shop. When the old man was sure they were out of earshot, he sighed and wiped a sweat forming in his forehead.

"I thought they'd never leave." Two shadows jumped down from the ceiling and bowed before the old man. "Good, let's go before we lose them. Remember, we're not trying to kill them, just to scare them enough to drop the package and run for the hills. You got that?" One of the shadows nodded excitedly and the other just puffed his cigarette and nodded. The old man coughed and fanned the space in front of him.

"If you keep smoking that cheap crap while I'm around, I might not make it to be this old." The old man said as he and the shadows disappeared.

[*.*.*.*]

Naruto stopped after running for a mile, stopping at the same clearing they were in when they got a drink of water. His teammates jumped down right behind him, wondering why he stopped. Naruto was looking around at the trees that surrounded the clearing. He activated the Jikokugan and created a dome around him and his teammates. He turned around and saw seven shuriken right behind him, aiming at Hinata and Shino. Naruto grabbed the seven shuriken and threw them back in the direction they came from. He heard rustling coming from the tree and five shadows jumping off the trees.

Most of the shadows wore a dark green cloak that had a hood that covered their faces. The leader, Naruto guessed, had a midnight blue cloak with his hood down, not bothering to conceal his rough face, a scar that ran down his left cheek and one horizontal one running through his chin. He was chewing on a toothpick and had light brown eyes. He smiled haughtily as he looked Naruto up and down.

"So you're one of the last survivors huh? You don't look so tough, in fact..." the man said as he took a step closer to team Kurenai. He was looking at Hinata's frozen form with interest. "The girl looks stronger than you." Naruto faltered for a second before dropping into his stance.

"In a couple of years, she'll probably develop quite nicely. You know what, after we kill you and the other guy, we might just take the girl." The man said. Naruto's eye's widened and his heart quickened, they were threatening to take Hinata; the mere fact that he threatened to kill him didn't faze him, it was very common in his life…

But when this man threatened to take Hinata, Naruto had never been so scared in his life, He also felt...

Angry.

He felt anger and hatred for the man in front of him, more than he had ever felt for just one man. His eyes faded to a deep shade of red and he could feel fangs and claws growing while his whisker marks deepened.

He knew what was happening, the Kyuubi was probably trying to take over.

The Kyuubi had been trying to convince him that he should use his power. The other times he refused but in his current situation… it was tempting.

Then he remembered of his two teammates. What would they think about him if they see him being engulfed with evil and an enormous amount of chakra?

Naruto started to breathe deeply and calmed himself, forcing his fangs and claws to retract and his whiskers to thin slightly, but not totally, his eyes did not change, pure malice was held in them. Naruto removed the dome and looked at his teammates without turning his head.

"Hinata, Shino, before you freak out, listen to me..." Naruto said quietly so only his teammates could hear him, making Hinata and Shino turn around in surprise. To them, only a second passed and now Naruto was behind them and there were five other people in the clearing. Hinata probably would've asked about it but Naruto had beaten her from saying something.

"We need to get out of here and head for the village. These men are very dangerous and could very well kill us. The guy in the blue cloak and the two in the middle are about jounin level. The ones on the side are slightly above chuunin. If we stay and fight, we're dead for. On my mark, we run straight for the village, no stopping for any reason, got it?" Hinata and Shino nodded.

"Yo! What are you three nodding about?" The leader yelled, Naruto made some quick hand signs and ended at the horse sign.

'Hope this works...' He thought after taking a deep breath and placing his hand beside his mouth.

"Now! Water Style: Raging Waves Jutsu!" A stream of water came out of Naruto's mouth and engulfed the five ninjas. Hinata and Shino had jumped up to the trees and watched as more water spilled out of Naruto's mouth.

'What are they still doing here?!' Naruto thought as he felt the jutsu ending. When it completely ended, he jumped to the trees and into his teammates.

"Come on, I thought I told you to run." Naruto said while he and his team headed for Konoha.

"Shino said we should've but I wanted to wait for you. You're part of this team and we won't leave you behind." Hinata said firmly.

"For me? Are you kidding? I'm not worth dying over; you could always have me replaced. I'm just a nobody!" Naruto shouted, Hinata and Shino looked at each other before looking at Naruto. They couldn't believe Naruto just called himself expendable. The jutsu he used to distract the five ninjas was incredibly difficult to learn and took up most of the user's chakra but Naruto didn't even break a sweat.

Before Hinata could say anything, the leader of the mysterious ninjas and the two Naruto had identified as jounin appeared up in front of them. They stopped two trees in front of them and warily watched the unknown men. Naruto jumped on a branch higher then the other ninjas and made one hand sign, taking his middle and index fingers on both hands and crossing them, bellowing:

"Tajuu Kage Bushin no Jutsu!" Over fifty Naruto surrounded the field and he started making more hand signs.

"Henge!" Suddenly, a third of the group were Hinatas, another third were Shinos and the last third were Naruto's. Then they all scattered, jumping from place to place and leaving the place in chaos. The three ninjas stabbed some of the clones, dispersing them and letting some of the smoke cloud their view. Team Kurenai moved around the three ninjas and the clones. They silently walked for a couple of minutes before completely sprinting and heading for Konoha.

"Naruto-kun, do you know who those guys are?" Hinata asked. Naruto shook his head.

"It appears that they are after the package and scroll we are supposed to deliver to Kurenai-sensei. That seems to be the only logical reason to be after us unless they are after one of us specifically." Shino stated. Hinata nodded and Naruto didn't do anything besides running and jumping from tree to tree.

"Well... I think... they're after me. I'm not sure exactly why but I seem to be their target." Naruto half-lied. It wasn't a complete lie but the truth wasn't entirely there either.

"Do you know why?" Hinata asked.

"This isn't the time to be talking about this." Naruto said but Hinata stopped running and crossed her arms over her chest. Shino and Naruto stopped as well. "Hinata, why'd you stop?"

"Tell me why they're after you or I'll wait here and ask them myself." Hinata threatened. Naruto sighed and grabbed Hinata by her left arm.

"Fine, but we need to keep going, I can run and explain at the same time." Hinata nodded and team Kurenai started running again.

"Ok, well... I didn't tell anyone this but I have a doujutsu." Naruto said hesitantly. Hinata's eyes widened and Shino just raised both eyebrows. "From what I've been told, it's called the Jikokugan, the 'Time Eye'. I can create a dome with a diameter of twenty feet and inside the dome, all time stops. Also, it has some sort of chakra reading ability that lets me tell how powerful someone is. It's very complicated and I'm still not good enough to use it to its full potential."

"I-I've never heard of the Jikokugan." Hinata said after getting over her initial shock.

"I'm not surprised. The clan that had the Jikokugan was annihilated long ago because the five Kages thought they would one day over power everyone. I'm not sure who they are but I think they're here to finish the job." Naruto said. He looked at Shino who was awfully quiet about this new piece of information. In fact, it was too quiet.

"Something's wrong." Naruto said. Before anyone had time to blink, a strong wind started blowing around them and they all flew into the air. Hinata grabbed Shino's arm and reached for Naruto's. Naruto reached back but the wind blew him back and deeper into the forest.

"Naruto-kun!" Hinata yelled as she and Shino were tossed in the opposite direction. The leader of the four mysterious ninjas jumped out of his hiding spot as his subordinates appeared in front of him.

"You four deal with the other two, I'll deal with the last Namikaze." The four ninjas nodded and disappeared in a swirl of leaves. The leader inhaled loudly and body flickered to where Naruto was.

[*.*.*.*]

Naruto slowly opened his eyes as he woke up. He groggily sat up and looked around. He couldn't remember ever sleeping earlier, especially in the forest. His eyes snapped open when he remembered the ambush. He jumped up and got into his stance. He carefully looked around for someone, waiting for something to happen.

"Relax, I'm only here to talk... for now." A voice echoed through the trees that surrounded Naruto. He spun on his heels and braced himself. The leader of the ninjas after him casually walked out from behind a tree and into the clearing.

"Who are you... and what do you want?" Naruto asked.

"I am Hiroshi and what I want is your death." Hiroshi said, crossing his arms over his chest.

"What did I ever do to you? Are you mad at me because of the fox?" Naruto asked again. Hiroshi laughed at him.

"I don't care about the fox; he could rot in hell for all I care. No, I don't want you to die because of that, but for that special power you posses. The Jikokugan." The man answered, putting a little emphasis on Jikokugan.

"You see, long ago the five Kgaes had a meeting to annihilate your clan and the power of the Jikokugan. My grandfather and my father both left to accomplish this. During the annihilation, one of your clan members happened to see my father and killed him. My grandfather committed suicide days after the whole thing, leaving my mother alone while I lay in her womb." Hiroshi said, his anger rising with each passing word.

"I grew up fatherless for over forty years! And it's your stupid clan's entire fault! I was and at first, all the Jikokugan users were dead but then I found out that there was still a survivor left. You!" Hiroshi said angrily.

"I'm sorry that you grew up without a father, but it wasn't my fault that he died. I wasn't even born when all of this happened. You shouldn't blame me for this. You shouldn't even try to kill me, let alone my friends." Naruto told Hiroshi.

"It's too late for apologize. They won't bring my father back." Hiroshi said.

"Killing me and my friends won't bring him back either." Naruto said, hoping to convince Hiroshi but he just shook his head.

"But it will avenge him!" Hiroshi yelled as he started making some hand signs. "Fire style: Dragon Flame Bomb Jutsu!"

A giant blast of flame erupted from Hiroshi's mouth, heading straight for Naruto who was just able to complete a series of his own.

"Water Style: Raging Waves Jutsu!" A stream of water equal in size to the Hiroshi's jutsu met it in the middle, both jutsus canceling each other out sending steam to cover the clearing, blocking Hiroshi from Naruto's sight.

Naruto closed his eyes and put his other sense to work, trying to find Hiroshi. He snapped his eyes opened and jumped into the air as shuriken and kunai embedded into the ground where he just was. He flipped back in mid air and landed on a tree trunk, looking for Hiroshi.

After the steam cleared, Naruto could see that Hiroshi hadn't moved from where he last stood. Naruto jumped down from the tree he was in and faced Hiroshi.

"You know, by now your friends should be dead. I personally trained the ninjas I brought with me. But I could be lying, I did mention to leave the girl alive." Naruto unintentionally clenched his teeth together.

"She will make a fine breeding tool for my village. When she gets to a certain age, we'll make sure she's well taken care of... in the comfort of my home." Hiroshi sneered. Naruto clenched his teeth tighter as his fangs and claws grew. He tried to calm down again.

'Easy now, this is exactly what he wants. What I need to do is try to ditch this guy and regroup with Hinata-chan and Shi...' Naruto was interrupted from his thoughts when Hiroshi spoke again.

"It's too bad you won't be alive long enough to hear her scream my name during the night." Hiroshi stated with a sick and perverted smirk. That was the last straw. Naruto's eyes first turned green as he activated his doujutsu but then it turned completely yellow, glowing a little with a black slit in place where the pupil usually is and a swirl formed around the slit pupil. His whiskers thickened and his hair got wilder. His back hunched back and he got on all fours, growling and snarling at Hiroshi.

"That's it, get angry... hate me, feed off that hatred and attack me!" Hiroshi yelled. Naruto jumped into action and swiped Hiroshi with his claws. Hiroshi dodged the first two swipes but was badly slashed in his left arm. He yelped in pain for a second before smiling again.

"Nice shot, but you'll have to do more than that if you want to stop me from making your whore mine!"

"SHUT UP!" A red shroud of chakra enveloped Naruto. It created two bumps on his head and one on his rear, creating fox-like ears and tail. Naruto roared, sending Hiroshi back into a tree. Before he hit the tree, he flipped back and landed on his feet. He jumped off the tree and returned to the spot he was standing in before.

"Now we're talking..."
