When she woke, Naruto was lying next to her in a bed. Tsunade came into the room.
"Miss Uzumaki, I believe the council and I have some questions for you. Uzukage-san, let me see if you are okay to come," Tsunade said. She walked over to Naruto, and did a quick exam. Naruto had three broken ribs, which she healed. He also had cuts and bruises everywhere, along with a cracked femur. She healed all of these wounds, and turned to Hinata.
"He should be able to be released within the next day or so. Now, if you would please come with me," Tsunade told Hinata. Hinata looked at Naruto, who simply brushed his hand along her arm. She left, and closed the door behind her. When Hinata looked at where Naruto had brushed his hand, and she saw the mark for a Hirashin. She smirked. So he wanted a grand entrance, did he?
Hinata followed Tsunade to the council chamber. She entered behind Tsunade, and stood behind her.
"As you all experienced, there is something that you two are not telling us. We now know that Hinata and Naruto did in fact end up in Whirlpool, and it seems that they taught you some things. A couple of questions we would like you to answer. First, why can you perform Hyuuga jutsu?" Tsunade asked.
"Mm, I guess you could say I was taught," Hinata replied. "Next question."
"Why is your surname Uzumaki?" Koharu asked.
"Well, Uzumaki is a pretty popular surname in Whirlpool. But that is not the reason." Hinata looked down to the ring on her finger. A few council members' eyes widened.
"So...you...married into the Uzumakis?" Tsunade asked.
"Yes. Oh, I lied to you, by the way. I'm not the Uzukage's guard," Hinata told them.
"Then who are you?" Tsume asked.
"You're the Uzukage's...wife...then?" asked Shikaku. Hinata nodded.
"Ah, so can you tell us some things about the Uzukage?" asked Homura.
"Why don't you ask him yourself?" Naruto said, as he appeared in a flash of yellow.
"I thought I told you to stay in bed!" Tsunade scolded Naruto. He sheepishly rubbed the back of his head.
"Gomen, Baa-chan," Naruto said before he could stop. Everyone in the room stared at him.
"N-Naruto?" Tsunade asked. Naruto sighed, and took out the contacts and brushed off the makeup conceling his birthmarks. The blue eyes and whisker marks clearly showed who he was. The council burst into a roar.
"Why are we alliancing with this...this...demon!"
"Because we need help, you fool!"
"Besides, does he look like a demon to you?"
"Quiet!" yelled Tsunade, slamming her hands on the desk.
"Hokage-sama, I believe you are missing someone here," Hinata said. She pulled out the contacts as well.
"Hinata?" Hiashi asked.
"Well, it makes sense now. The reason she could do Hyuuga moves is because she was taught them. Although, I would like to know if your marriage is true?" Inoichi asked. Naruto nodded.
"Hinata, you have disgraced yourself and this clan by marrying outside of the Hyuuga clan. You will have to be given the Caged Bird Seal for doing so," Hiashi stated.
"Not so fast. You have no right to push her around like that. She is under my protection as my wife, and as a citizen of Uzu," Naruto retaliated. He smirked. "By the way, we were never here to approve a treaty. You are just a stupid village that needs to rely on its allies. And when all of your allies, whom I got you, left you in the dust, you finally realized that you couldn't take the big bad world. Good luck in the war, there is no way in the world I would ever agree to an alliance with you. By the way, I talked to the Daimyo. He said that Uzu could take most of Konoha's land. Seems that he likes me, and thinks that you are real stupid to think of disgracing one of your best shinobi. Oh, and remember that technique I used earlier? That was Hirashin. You know? My dad's famous jutsu? That's right, you practically kicked the son of your most famed hero out of your gates. You are so stupid! I am pretty much the spitting image of him! Well, I hope Konoha can get its butt moving, and then you might just survive. Barely."
He walked over to Tsunade, and whispered into her ear.
"Tsunade, Hinata and I are inviting you to come to Uzugakure to stay. If you would like, come to the West gates in two hours." Tsunade nodded.
Naruto and Hinata went around asking all of the people that liked them to come to Uzugakure. Once everyone that was coming arrived, they set off towards Uzu.
Naruto and Hinata led their group of friends to Uzugakure. They stopped in front of the gate, and the guards bowed while opening the gates.
"Okay, for now, you guys can stay with us in our house, until we settle someplace for each of you to stay. That sound like a good plan to you?" asked Hinata. Everyone nodded. Naruto and Hinata led them to their house, which was humongous. It left their friends speechless.
"Wow," said Kurenai.
If only you were here with me, Asuma, Kurenai thought, looking at the sky.
"Your house...is huge!" mumbled Izumo.
"Alright, Kurenai, you will be in this room," Naruto said, motioning to a room on the second floor. "Izumo, you will be across the hall, Kotetsu, next to Izumo. Neji and Ten Ten, I think it is same to assume you can have this room, the one next to Kurenai, since you are boyfriend and girlfriend. Tsunade-baachan and Shizune, you room will be next to Neji and Ten Ten's, Old Man Ichiraku, your room is next to Kotetsu. Ayame, you will be next to Tsunade-baachan. Finally, Iruka and Anko, since you are married you can have the room next to Old Man Ichiraku. This sound good to you guys?" Naruto asked. Everyone went to their rooms to out away their stuff.
"Dinner is in an hour, and we will work the other things out tomorrow!" Hinata yelled down the hallway. Anko and Kurenai walked over to Hinata and Naruto.
"Hey gaki, where's the bathroom?" Anko asked.
"Oh, it's down the hall to the left. That side is the womens bathroom," Hinata said.
Hinata went to the kitchen to cook dinner while Naruto dealt with Uzukage business. An hour later, everyone was seated at the table and Hinata along with a few servants helped her serve dinner. As everyone ate, Naruto told everyone what was going to happen.
"Okay, so tomorrow, you guys can either hang around, train, or explore the village. Old Man Ichiraku, I have a stand set up for you, so you can start getting it ready tomorrow, okay?" Naruto said. Ichiraku nodded.
"Hey Naruto, what are you going to do during the war if you're not helping Konoha?" asked Tsunade.
"Well, I was going to sit back and relax. The Fire Daimyo knows how Konoha has treated me, and has practically deserted Konoha. Besides that, I was going to rescue any people who didn't come with us that aren't worthy of death," Naruto explained.
