The story continues! The POV is still Naruto's, The owner of the manga is still someone other than me…

Chapter 4: Super Wanted Naruto

When I got to leaf I was still inside the bag, so my senses weren't even tenth of their usual so I could barely hear where I am, suddenly I felt I was being turned upside down and I fell to the ground, I released the henga no jutsu and came back to my normal form, I saw the girl I have been following talking with Neji, she had let go of her blind fold and looked at me, her eyes were as blank as Neji's, I didn't know that Hinata and Neji had any more siblings at the same age group, the girl said "So, I was wondering how much time you are going to stay there, it was a long trip since I left the sand, wasn't it?" "It's time you started talking, who are you and why did you follow her? Are you planning to assassinate the 5th?" Neji added. "I have no interest in that hag" I answered "I don't like this guy, you should call the ANBU team, we need to know what's up with him soon" Neji told that girl, I didn't care about Tsunade, but I knew I wont be able to keep my act on for long, so I rather be in the best position I can when the truth comes out, 6 ANBU members came to pick me, none of them even tried to look at me, as we walked I realized there were people staring at me, but I didn't mind it, I lost my heart, feelings and dreams long ago, I was just doing what I thought as the best thing to do for the moment. They took me to the hokage's room, she was sitting there silently, Kakashi was sitting next to her.

Kakashi was the first to speak "we didn't see you for quite a time, I didn't think you'll end up like this, I can barely believe it's you", "After the battle with the panda demon nobody knew where you are, half of the elders said you released the Kyubi and you should be put to death, they think you finally lost yourself" Tsunade said. "Maybe they are right, it's not impossible, but what would you do if I did?" I asked them, they both looked at me with disbelieving eyes, none of them thought I'll turn out like this, Tsunade continued "If we let you go, what are you planning to do? Will you continue spying after Hinata?" Hinata ? what was her connection to me now? I haven't seen her in over 2 years, it struck me like lightning "that girl? That's Hinata?" Kakashi Started laughing "So, there's still a part of the old Naruto out there! You really didn't understand it? she might have changed a bit but for you not to recognize her? What kind of idiot are you?" I felt like a kid again, arguing with him "how can I recognize her? She doesn't even act like herself anymore; she stopped doing that finger thing and she doesn't avoid eye contact now!" Tsunade got back into the conversion and said "you haven't been your normal self either; you don't eat ramen or talk about being hokage!", "I gave up on that dream when I gave up on this village, nothing will change that" I turned the talk serious again, I wasn't planning to stay at the leaf, all I wanted to do was to meet up Sakura and talk a bit with Hinata, just apologize to her about following her to the leaf, Kakashi thought for a minute and said "I guess we can let you meet up with everybody, but it'll be hard to release you afterwards". I sat back and said silently "I'm not going to stay here, and you can't make me, if you try, I will kill you both" Tsunade was mad when she heard me "so, you're still the same brat like the one you were when we first met, all brawns and no brain, you really think you can kill us?" I could smell the fear from her, she was like a bear in a trap, a wrong move and I'll be forced to kill her "oh, I wanted to ask you something, why did you announce me as a S-rank missing nin?" I tried to change the subject, Kakashi sighted, I guess it wasn't the right topic to discuss right now, Tsunade's answer was harsh and painful "The demon you released back then was more than any of has imagined, we knew that you could call his chackra out and it heals you quickly, but calling out the essence of the Kyubi in gamabunta's form was about all we could stand, there are over twenty shinobies who are bound to the toad contract, each one of them is an above jounin level, after that fight, they all lost the ability to summon frogs, with the boss toad dead. they found out you were responsible and stormed the leaf demanding my head, you know I can't leave the village at a time like this, so… " "you promised them you'll put all the efforts in catching and killing me, no problem, I understand, you had to save your life" I said, swearing her inside, the 3rd would have fought for me, but she was different "Oh, wouldn't it be a little inconvenient for you if I escaped now, I don't think those shinobies would give you a second chance to capture me, that sure does put you in a hard state.." Kakashi stepped in the conversion "maybe we should allow Naruto to meet his friends while we decide what to do with him?" Tsunade nodded "good idea Kakashi, can I trust that you won't try anything stupid Naruto?" I made the most innocent face I could "I can promise you I won't do anything until you tell me what you decided, after that – it's another story, you should leave ANBU members around if it makes you fell better".

After three hours Sakura came to visit me, she didn't pass the jounin exams, even though she was one of the best genjutsu masters at the leaf and the whole land, she didn't have many missions to do so she spent her time as an instructor at the academy.

"The 5th told me you wanted to talk with me, but just who are you?" she asked, I should have expected it, I didn't look like myself anymore "try picturing me 6 years younger, and  hyper active, that should be enough for you, sakura-chan" she looked at me with a non believing stare, "no way! Naruto? Is that you?" she asked, all of her serious face was gone, "where have you been? What happened to you, why did you leave us?" she cried, she has been in a hard mental state ever since Sasuke joined with Orchimuro, when the leafs' spy brought the news that other day, she collapsed, she carried that scar at her heart, it caused her romance life to be crazy from the beginning, she dated shinobies and other people from nearby villages, none of her relationships lasted long, her obsession has driven everybody away, but her relationship with Lee was the worst, she insisted on him quitting the life of a shinobi, she said she didn't want to see him get hurt again, he said that he can't give up on his dreams and that he'll keep pushing himself to prove his ninja way, they broke up and got back together at least 6 times a year. We talked for hours, Kakashi dropped by and brought us some sake and ramen, we all sat and brought back memories from the old times when we were still team 7…

 At the following day I asked Kakashi to ask for Hinata to come, I wasn't sure why I did it, I thought I just wanted to apologize to her about they way I behaved, I promised myself I'll keep my cools at the talk, that I won't let any emotion escape. Hinata came to the room, she looked so different than how she used to be, she had long hair and bakyugen eyes were held high, nothing like the shy Hinata I remembered. "Humph! So you got some special treatment from the 5th and you think you can act like you own the village?" she almost shouted, against my will I smiled to her "wow, I never imagined you shouting at me, this sure is surprising, you've changed so much since we last met.." "Don't talk like you know anything about me! If it wasn't for Kakashi I would never come and meet you!" she lost her temper quickly, I guessed she didn't like the fact I treated her like a kid "lets cool down, o.k? No need to verbally abuse me, what were you doing at the whale catching party anyway?" I asked her, she looked straight into my eyes and said "The Hyuga clan's business should not concern you, I had just about more than I need to hear from you" she left the room, I wanted to follow her, but I didn't think I could make the ANBU team see my side of the story, and I promised Tsunade I won't try to escape just yet. Tsunade and an ANBU stepped inside, she dropped a scroll to me and left. I opened it and started reading, it was a statement that I was caught and I will be sent to some remote part of the fire country where the ex-toad summoners can kill me, the statement has already been released, I would be put to death the next night. "so why are you here, Gai?" I asked the ANBU, "well, I'm here because of Kakashi, two hours ago he asked me for a match, and made me promise I'll do something for him if I lose… and that's how I got here" I smiled "you lost another rock-paper-scissors match? Or was it something else?" his face went down "it was a coin tossing bet, I didn't notice he checked the coin's reflection on the floor with the sharingan, so it was a straight win for him" he almost cried, thick as ever. "so what did Kakashi asked you to do?" "he told me he wanted me to sneak out a prisoner, but I never guessed it'll be you" he answered me, he just crossed the line, if he'll be caught he'll be treated as a spy 'I've arranged for a distraction, but you'll have to escape on your own, the contact man will get you to a safe hold, and that will be the last time you'll come close to the leaf ever again, you must understand it" I nodded, my presence was a burden on the leaf, I always was just a relic of the past, my actions were a stain on the leaf's honor, and they had to get rid of me. After the operation, the leaf will deny any connection to my escape and ignore me completely.

Nighttime came, they tied me up and blindfolded me, Tsunade threw me at them herself, the signal for me to start my escape was when I sense a genjutsu come to effect, that's all Gai told me, I was supposed to escape on my own, the genjutsu was only to keep them off my back for a while and the contact man was just to bring me to the safe house, nothing more, most shinobies would consider it an impossible mission, a suicidal course, it really was. The only one who knew who is involved was Gai, but I was sure the genjutsu user will be Sakura, the contact man will probably be someone I never met before, and he'll know nothing about me. The frog summoneres came, they looked pretty strong, but I didn't believe any of them has summoned gamabunta even once, they threw me into a carriage, they started kicking me immediately, most of them counted on that summon as their main jutsu. After a few hours I felt the genjutsu kicking into effect, I didn't have much time, I tore of the ropes and jumped out, the genjutsu will give me just enough time to get away from their sights, but then they'll come after me. I kept running, memorizing the spot where my contact man should meet me, I got there in 3 hours, the toad summoneres have probably sent men to the leaf, and Tsunade probably gave them permission to search all over the village. Three shuirkans were thrown at me, I got worried, the contact man was supposed to throw them besides me, he must have been a complete failure. I picked them up and cut myself, he jumped from the trees and landed next to me "Hinata, what was that for?" I asked her, I was surprise to see she was my contact man. "It's you again! Why do Gai and Kakashi try so hard to help?" she almost screamed but she started running towards the safe house, I followed her and said "I'll tell you everything when we get there, if they catch us the whole leaf will be in danger" I promised her while we ran.

After five hours of running we got there, it was a hidden cave behind a waterfall, it used to be a part of a mine years ago, so even if they found out about the place, I would be able to escape through one of the many exits.

**** Chapter 4 - Super Wanted Naruto – End*******

I planned to start a new thing in this chapter, I saw it on one Inu-Yasha fic a few days ago, what the author did was to write what the char's think on this ep, it's probably not new and you may think it's stupid, but I still really liked it so from next week onwards. The reason I didn't do it is because I went to a funeral of my English teacher's son, he was killed in the Levanon border and the whole occasion just got me out of the mood to write something funny.

Ami thx (I think, ain't sure what "koi" means exactly), I'm sorry I didn't see you last week and post this reply then.

Chibi0Dragon ahh! You reviwed me twice! Can it mean that someone thinks this fic is good enough to read again? The past tense is easy, but keeping it in Naruto POV is a killer.

Silver Dragonfly I never said she was Hinata, but it was really obvious, just remember that Naruto is an idiot and while the story progressed in a two paragraphs to that point, it was two years in Naruto's perspective.

Zsych thx, but I'm sorry to disappoint you, reference to demons in this fic will be few and far between, the sequel (which I'm working on not) is going to be much, much, darker and bloodier.

Anyway, thx for all who reviewed, keep doing it, cause Sukot is here and I got a shitload of homework to do and tests to study to.
