Authors note: Thanks to the couple of you that reviewed, even if it was less than positive. So yeah, Hinata was in the white ball. I know one reviewer seems to think I'm going to elevate her above all other characters. Please don't presume what I have planned for a character based on another's work. I try my best to avoid the Mary-sue issue. Anyway, the reason behind the multiple colored balls are obvious in many ways, yet have more to be discovered later. One reviewer was pretty good in his guesses, but the purpose of this whole thing has yet to be revealed or guessed. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this one, and look forward to monday's entry as well.

The pair of former Konoha ninja simply stared at one another for several moments. Seeing that neither foreigner was ready to move, the eldest male in the room discreetly pulled out his pokedex. Scanning the faintly glowing female in front of him, the glasses wearing male frowned in confusion.

I was almost certain that she was an altered seraph. I thought that maybe the boy was mistaken when he asked her name, but it seems that she may also be a dimensional traveler. I'll have to run some tests, but I'm almost completely sure that she shares similar unique traits to Mr. Naruto. And if what my pokedex says is true, this young girl may be the key to the scientific discovery of the century. The male took a moment to reign in his excitement before clearing his throat. "This certainly is not what I expected Mr. Naruto."

At the sound of the professor's voice, the former classmates turned to the other male in the room. The blue haired girl gazed confusedly at the lab coat wearing man; a hundred questions flying through her head. "Ano, who is this Naruto-kun?" The pale princess gestured curiously to the oddly contemplative looking male in front of her.

The faintly whiskered teen glanced at her. Seeing her state of undress, the blonde male unconsciously stepped protectively in front of the young woman. Looking into her eyes over his left shoulder, the former jinchuriki attempted to explain the situation. "Hinata, we aren't in Konoha anymore, or the elemental nations for that matter. I'll explain everything in a few minutes, but this is professor Maple. He owns the ranch and the town that we are currently in." Turning to fully face the professor, the young shinobi narrowed his eyes. "This is my friend from Konoha, Hinata. I can't exactly explain how she got here, because I'm pretty sure that she wasn't on the rescue team, but she is a friend. So I expect you to uphold the deal that we made in the first place. If Hinata wants to be a tamer, she will have the right. And stop ogling her like a piece of meat you old pervert!"

The pale eyed konoichi blushed at the blondes words. Naruto-kun is trying to protect me. Maybe…maybe he even likes me. The blue haired maiden glanced at her unconsciously poking fingers. Her view carried her down to her state of dress, or undress as it were, and she let out an embarrassed 'eep'. What happened to my clothes? Why do I look so…different? Why does Naruto-kun look so…mature? Glancing at the back of her blonde friend's head, she blushed even deeper. Did Naruto-kun really see me like this? Did…did he like it? The teen wobbled on her feet, fighting with all of her might not to faint. I wonder what this weird white material on me is… Ignoring the talking males, the former Hyuuga heiress pinched the material and let out a gasp. Wh-what is going on? I could feel pain when I pinched this stuff… The lavender eyed female rubbed the material with her right hand, and let out an unconscious moan that drew the attention of everyone in the room.

The purple haired Nymph smirked in the white clad female's direction. It seems like those white things are pretty sensitive. As soon as master allows me to, I'm going to get well acquainted with this new girl. "Master, are you going to introduce us to our new harem sister?"

Lavender eyes went wide at the question of the nude female that she just noticed. Master? Harem? "N-naruto-kun, what is she talking about?"

The blonde let out a sigh as he turned around fully to face his former classmate. "Hinata, like I said, there is a lot that has to be explained. But let me get you and the girls some adequate clothes before we continue." Turning towards the smiling professor, the blonde took a deep breath. "Professor Maple, do you have any clothes for my girls and my friend here?"

The smiling scientist slowly nodded, enjoying the new predicament that the blond enigma was now backed into. "I have some clothing options for the ladies here Mr. Naruto. But the clothes unfortunately will cost some SLC. And I'm not entirely sure that your starting tamer's allowance will be enough to pay for everything."

The blonde pinched his nose, knowing that he was currently in a losing situation. "Fine, what do you want in exchange for the clothes?"

The dark eyed male's eyes glanced briefly over to the embarrassed white clad konoichi before settling on the blonde. "What I really want is something that would be inappropriate to ask for. However, I think that one outfit per girl will be worth a single new pokegirl. Standard SLC trade rates should suffice."

The blonde grit his teeth at the thinly veiled desire for his comrade, before looking at his three companions. Slowly, an idea began to form in his mind. "You know professor; that might usually be correct. However, are you really going to allow your own daughter to travel around in nothing but her underwear if I decide not to make a trade with you?"

The professor glanced at his suspiciously silent daughter before frowning in the blonde's direction. "No…I would not like that for my daughter. And although she is now your responsibility, I won't have her being exposed in such a way if I can help it. So my daughter can have anything that she wants, but what about you're other two?"

The blue eyed teen let out a mischievous smirk at the concession. "Well, I definitely have enough for one or two outfits. But I don't think I have too much to worry about. With her starting tamer's allowance, Hinata should be able to buy something on her own to get things started."

The elder male frowned at the lost opportunity. Attempting to salvage the situation, the befuddled male tried a different tact. "That is very true Mr. Naruto. But what are you going to do for new supplies? If you spend most of you and your friends SLC now, what will happen when you need replacements? Or food? Are you sure that trading one more pokegirl wouldn't be worth the effort?"

The blonde's smirk widened into a smile that sent shivers down the older man's spine. "I don't think we have much to worry about on that end. We'll cross those bridges when we get there. So, can you please direct us to where you have some clothes so that we can get started?"

With a resigned nod, the professor made his way to the door. "We haven't opened our poke store yet because we don't have any clients. But Clara should have some clothes in storage that you could look through."

It had taken a couple of hours, but the girls were all outfitted in their chose attire. Pan chose a modified blue valkyrie battle suit. The short cloth two-piece out fit was built for protection and range of movement. The young pokegirl insisted that she have a removable section around her shoulder blades, in the off chance that she evolved and grew wings.

Anko chose a miniskirt with a mesh top. She finished the ensemble with a short brown jacket. The idea had been inspired by her tamers story about her ninja namesake. She had asked what the woman that he claimed she resembled looked like. One henge later (startling the pants off of the three indigenous pokegirls) and quick explanation of his abilities and Anko's attitude and mentality had the Nymph grinning in anticipation.

Hinata on the other hand picked out a form fitting double strapped white tank top with the back cut out. The group had discovered that the white material that had covered her were in fact a pair of silky white wings to Pan's annoyance. The oddest thing about the discovery was a small pair of bumps a foot lower than the base of the wings. She wore a light grey pair of cargo capri pants that were eerily familiar to her former shinobi outfit. Finally, she wore a dark blue jacket with two slits cut to fit her wings. The confusion that she felt over her new appearance and appendages only grew as the time increased.

The male shinobi had been thinking, and could luckily afford a small addition to his wardrobe. In addition to the black cargo pants and white t-shirt, the blonde modified his orange jacket into a vest. He also opted for a gold half sleeved trench coat that caused his resemblance to a certain former Hokage and seal master to skyrocket.

The newly outfitted quartet exited the small storage building in order to get Hinata informed and outfitted as a new tamer.

The blue haired maiden blushed as her mind adjusted to the new information that was recently uploaded into her mind. The idea that she may have to do…that…with other females was both exhilarating and horrifying at the same time. I…I'm not sure if this is such a good idea. I only ever wanted to do THAT with one person. The shy girl blushed harder at her mental admission. I wanted Naruto-kun to be my first…and only. And I never really looked at other girls in THAT way. Although there was that one dream with Naruto-kun, Ayame-san, me and a gigantic bowl of ramen… The pale eyed beauty quickly wiped her face of the drool and faint red liquid incase someone would notice. Judging by what the machine says this world doesn't have many pure human females left. The young woman's shoulders drooped as another thought occurred to her. What am I thinking…I'm not a purely human girl anymore? I-I don't know what I am; the professor can't even figure it out. Father would be so disgusted with me right now. Does…does N-naruto think I'm a freak? H-he might hate me! I don't think I can do this by myself…

The spiraling thoughts of the young woman were halted as a strong hand landed on her shoulder. He large white wings flared unconsciously at the surprising contact. The hand jerked away as a familiar voice invaded her ears.

"Whoa there Hinata. I was just checking to make sure that you're done. Are you alright?"

Lavender eyes looked into concerned blue; melting most of the young woman's worries away. "I'm fine Naruto-kun. This was just a lot to take in at the moment."

The faintly whiskered teen nodded in remembrance. "I know what you mean Hinata. I was kinda freaked out when I found out what this world is all about. But I couldn't sit and do nothing if someone I knew needed my help. And I'm really glad that I did, who knows what could have happened to you if I hadn't opened up that white pokeball."

The blushing female poked her fingers together in embarrassment and joy. He was willing to sacrifice whatever it takes for me! Oh Naruto-kun…

The blue eyed shinobi continued, oblivious to the thoughts of his former classmate. "And when you came out, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. But there is something that has been bugging me for a while now. I know that you weren't on the rescue squad with us, and Lee came on his own to help. So how did you get here if this weird dimension thingy happened between me and the teme?"

The blue haired girl giggled in spite of herself at the nickname that her crush gave his teammate. "Well, Tenten-chan saw Lee leaving the gates and got suspicious. When she heard that you all were on a mission from the gate guards, she approached Hokage-sama about it. Tsunade-sama told her that a team led by Shikamaru was attempting to retrieve Uchiha-san from some Oto ninja. After begging Tsunade-sama to help, she agreed to allow us to rendezvous with the back-up from Suna. She allowed Tenten-chan to form a team and to leave immediately. However, she forbid Sakura-san from being a part of the team because of emotional instability. Tenten-chan could only find Ino-chan and me in the allotted time period, and we set off to find everyone." The shy woman blushed lightly; this had been the most that she had spoken directly to the blonde at any one time. Taking a deep breath to calm her nerves, she continued her narrative. "First we ran into Choji-kun. Ino-chan wanted to help him, but Choji-kun insisted that we go ahead and help the others. He could barely stay awake, but he was able to tell us that the man that he killed was the weakest of the ones who took Uchiha-san. After a few minutes, we heard fighting up ahead of us. I used my Byuakugan and was able to see that it was Neji-niisan fighting a four armed ninja with an Oto hitae. Tenten-chan decided that we should split up, and try to help as many people as possible. She reasoned that our Suna back-up is probably close. And since Neji-niisan is one of the stronger genin that she would be more than enough to tip the scales in his favor." The blue haired girl took another deep breath to steady her nerves; the intense blue eyes almost caused her resolve to falter. "We then came upon the Suna help a few kilometers later. It was actually Gaara-san and the sand siblings." Blue eyes widened at that little bit of information. If Gaara is here…did that mean he might have the same issue that I do with his biju? The blonde had to refocus on the pale eyed maiden's tale. "…so Temari-san decided that helping Shikamaru-kun was not the most important issue. Deciding that since Shikamaru's opponent seemed physically to be the weakest; Ino-chan would assist him. Kankarou-san went in search of Kiba-kun while the three of us went ahead. I spotted Lee-kun fighting against a white haired shinobi with bones sticking from his skin. Judging by the feel of his chakra, Gaara-san decided that this shinobi was the greatest threat to the mission. He went to help Lee-kun, while Temari-san and I went to help find you. When I looked for you, I noticed something that terrified me…"

*** Flash Back ***

The veined induced konoichi gasped in horror at what her expanded vision displayed. "Temari-san, we have to hurry! Naruto-kun is in trouble!" The blue haired maiden exploded forward in a desperate push of chakra. Seeing the energy shroud of her crush grow a second appendage was the least of her worries.

The four pony-tailed mistress frowned as she pushed herself to catch up to the frantic Hyuuga.

"Hinata-san…slow down…I can feel the power up there and although it is impressive the little gaki will be fine on his own for a minute. We won't be any help to him if we're exhausted when…"

The frantic Hyuuga interrupted the blonde wind mistress in a rare break in decorum. "No. You don't understand Temari-san! I'm not worried about Sasuke-san right now! I'm talking about the three other ninja that are closing in on them! And one looks just like…"

The Hyuuga heir did not get a chance to finish her statement as a shockwave crushed the air from her lungs.

The next moment, her world went white.

*** Flash back End ***

"…and that was the last thing I remember before seeing you today. I guess that flash is what brought us here."

The blonde looked away in guilt as the truth hit him. I'm the reason that Hinata is here. If it hadn't been for me pulling out another tail, she would be with her family back in the Leaf village. "I'm sorry Hinata. If I hadn't gotten desperate, or if I could have been stronger, none of this would have happened."

For the first time that she could remember, the former heiress frowned at her crush. "Naruto-kun, you can't blame yourself for this. We all chose to try and help you. Tsunade-sama gave us the mission. You can't get upset with things that were out of your control."

Blue eyes watered as the full guilt crashed down on him. "If…I had been stronger…we could have…"

The self deprecating shinobi was cut off as a pair of arms circled around his neck. "Don't beat yourself up over this Naruto-kun. Everyone did what they could…things just happened. And I'm not too upset. This was just a lot to take in."

The blonde nodded into the hug, feeling an immense weight lift from his shoulders. "Thanks Hinata…chan. So, um…have you decided to become a tamer?"

The tomato red blush reappeared on her face. "I-I think I will because it seems safer that way. Because of my new…situation, I don't want people to get the wrong ideas about me. And it will help me to make a living here in case I can't get home for a while. I'll just have to figure out a way to hide my wings."

The faintly whiskered teen nodded before a thought occurred to him. "Are you sure that you're willing to become a tamer Hinata-chan? If you do, there are certain…um…responsibilities that you won't be able to ignore."

The blue haired girl had to fight the urge to faint. "I-I-I think I may be able to do that. It's just…I never wanted my first time to be like that. I always had someone else in mind…." Please don't make me say it Naruto-kun. It's too embarrassing.

"I understand what you mean Hinata-chan." The blonde had a look of intense concentration that somehow seemed appropriate on his more mature face. "Well, since we're friends, I'll just have to help you."

Pale eyes widened as a trickle of blood escaped her nose. "Wha…um…are you…um…sure Naruto-kun?" Oh Kami, please don't ask me that. Or maybe he should…NO BAD HINATA!

The blonde's eyes nearly glowed with determination. "Of course Hinata-chan! I'll do whatever it takes to help out a precious person." The blue haired maiden wobbled unsteadily on her feet as inner Hinata sent perverted images and risqué scenarios through mind. "So I'll let you have the professor's new invention so that you won't be embarrassed or have to do any actual taming!"

Inner Hinata fell down in a comic anime style at the suggestion. "Th-thank you Naruto-kun for your thoughtfulness. However I think we should go and see the professor to get my tamers license."

"It has been done as promised Mr. Naruto. Ms. Hinata has been outfitted with a custom pokedex and six starting pokeballs. Her account has been updated and the money for the clothes has already been subtracted. You two may stay for a while if you wish, or you can officially begin your journey." The smiling professor felt a bead of sweat roll down the back of his neck at the intense stare of the former jinchuriki. The small smile that the young shinobi flashed did not help the feeling of foreboding.

"Professor Maple, I'm sure you remember our deal. I believe that you agreed to give Hinata-chan here a pokegirl to get started with. You wouldn't be trying to back out on that would you?"

The professor shuddered at the calm voice of the blonde powerhouse. Nothing gets past this one. I just got those four girls from him; I can't just give them away so soon. Looks like its plan B then. "Y-you are correct Mr. Naruto. Please forgive me." Turning to the serene looking blue haired rookie tamer, the professor gave a slight nod. "Ms. Hinata, I have decided to give you one of my own pokegirls to help you get started as a rookie tamer." Holding out a pokeball, the professor fought hard to contain his smirk. "I have a pokegirl here whom I think will be of service to you."

The blue haired girl cautiously reached out to accept the pokeball. Pressing the release button, a familiar auburn haired pokegirl materialized before her. Seeing the professor's choice, the blonde growled in annoyance.

"What the hell is this? Yvette is not a starting pokegirl! How can Hinata-chan expect to win battles and capture a team if her starting pokegirl can't fight?"

The glasses wearing male simply shrugged in the face of the shinobi's fury. "I did what I promised to do Mr. Naruto. Yvette is one of my pokegirls and she has been given to Ms. Hinata. I believe the terms of our deal are now satisfied."

The faintly whiskered teen growled and his eyes begin to glow as he took a step forward. "Why you…" The blonde's advance was halted as a soft voice entered his ear.

"Please stop Naruto-kun." As the three pair of eyes focused on the former heiress, the young woman turned to face the professor. "I accept your offer professor Maple. I think Yvette-chan will be a fine addition to my team and I thank you for your thoughtfulness."

The two males simply gawked at the soft spoken female. However, the auburn haired maiden spoke first.

"Mistress Hinata, while I am overjoyed that you would accept me in your harem, I think you should reconsider. Everything that Master Naruto said about me is true. I don't think I can be of much use to you on your adventures."

Lavender eyes softened at the self deprecating admission. "Don't worry about it Yvette-chan. I think that you are a wonderful pokegirl. It would be my honor if you would join my team."

The normally quiet pokegirl's eyes moistened at the request. She bowed low to the celestial young woman in supplication. "I-I thank you mistress. I will do whatever it takes to be of use to you and your harem. I am yours to do as you command." Reaching forward, the serving pokegirl gave her new tamer a hug before pressing her hand against her pokeball. The rarely emotional pokegirl disappeared in a flash of light. The pair of former Konoha shinobi nodded to one another before leaving the professor alone in his lab.

The lab coat wearing male rubbed his chin in thought at the bizarre scene.

The pair of shinobi walked further out into the outskirts of the ranch where more trees began to collect. Nodding to his companion, the blonde released his two pokegirls from their pokeballs as his partner did the same. The three pokegirls glanced around in confusion before the blonde spoke up.

Alright girls, I think we should all introduce ourselves. I believe everyone here knows me, so I'll let you all start. Can you get things rolling Pan-chan?"

The dragon pokegirl stared for a moment at the pale eyed beauty before speaking. "Well, I'm Pan and I'm a draco. I am master's first pokegirl." The dark haired maiden sent a significant look towards the former heiress. "I'm curious about the rest of you."

The purple haired pokegirl eyed the four surrounding her with lust rolling off her in waves before speaking. "My name is now Anko and I'm a Nymph. I look forward to getting to know all of you better as soon as master allows me. We can even get started right here and now." The four others in the clearing shuddered at the hungry look on the Nymphs face. Stepping forward shyly, the auburn pokegirl spoke up next.

"My name is Yvette and I'm…well a Maid Yvette. I am the first official pokegirl of mistress Hinata." The serving pokegirl smiled shyly at her new tamer.

The other two pokegirls stared incredulously at the pair. The green eyed pokegirl dragon pokegirl spoke first while pointing an accusing finger at the young konoichi. "What do you mean you're HER pokegirl? Isn't she a pokegirl like the rest of us?"

The former leaf ninja shared a look before the blue haired maiden spoke up. "Actually, Naruto-kun and I are not from here. We are not even from this dimension. A rip in space sucked us from our world and landed us here. It is because of traveling across dimensions that I have slightly mutated into what you see before you. So you see, I'm not really a pokegirl thus I can have my own pokegirl team." The blue haired maiden was amazed that she finished the sentence without a single stutter.

The two goggled at the unusual explanation. Slowly the pair tore their eyes away from the mysterious blue haired girl to stare at their mutual master. The blonde fidgeted slightly under the scrutinizing gazes. This time, it was the purple haired pokegirl that broke the silence. Pointing in her tamers direction, the lustful pokegirl fought hard to keep the tremor from her voice.

"So you mean to tell me, that he is like you?" The pale eyed beauty nodded in affirmation. Does that mean that he might have mutated too? Is he like…a pokeboy type or something?"

The blonde opened his mouth to retort, but the unlikeliest of people beat him to the punch.

"My former master, professor Maple thinks something like that may be the case. He tested master Naruto for pokegirl DNA while in the information machine, and found traces of a dragon stone in his system. It was difficult to tell what exactly this means, but the professor deduced that changes similar to my mistress may have already or soon may occur in master Naruto since an evolution stone was found in her as well."

The dumbfounded looks on everyone's faces was broken first by the former konoichi. "H-how do you know all of this Yvette-chan?"

The serving pokegirl blinked slowly at the question before answering. "I learned all of this while listening in on the professors in his lab. When he discovered me, he swore me to secrecy." The auburn haired maiden blushed in the direction of her new tamer. "However, my loyalties now lie elsewhere. I will do whatever it takes to be useful to mistress Hinata."

The four were taken back by the small narrative. None could decide if it was the information given, or the fact that the quiet pokegirl had spoken so much that startled them. Shaking her head in disbelief, the now oddly relieved daughter of Maple faced her tamer once more.

"So…you really are special. I knew that we had a bond, just not why. I think I can help you understand your new changes better than most judging by your reactions with my father. I can see some of the things that might happen already. I am truly lucky to have found a tamer such as you."

The purple haired pokegirl smirked in tandem. "I agree with Pan here. Dragon pokegirls are some of the most powerful and physically gifted pokegirls around. And our first experience was a first by nymph standards. You actually outlasted me! I seemed to have stumbled upon the jackpot. I'm in for the ride master. I can't wait to see where this is going."

The faintly whiskered teen's shoulders slumped in relief. "Thank you two. I'm glad that you are willing to stick with me with all of this going on. There is more to my story that I will explain to everyone later, but I think we have more important issues to deal with." The blue eyed teen stared each girl in the eye before firming his decision. "I'm glad you are all more familiar now, because we will be leaving here in a few days. But before we go, we have some training that we all need to get done."

The three pokegirls and teenage heiress shivered at the sadistic smirk on the face of the blonde shinobi.
