Last Song

If one was to describe angry it would be all the negative thoughts and emotions that swim in one's heart and soul. Yet no amount of description could really tell what the Hyugas faced. It was anger no mere person could hold. It erupted like a volcano destroying anything that came in its path. He would destroy them all. Every last women and child every descendent that bared the name Hyuga. His anger destroyed trees in his wake. It obliterated dirt under his feet. He was the on coming storm that no knew about. He broke through the gates without even touching them. The door blasted off their hinges into nothing as he approached them. A hand full of guards stood before the remains as his anger lashed out at them sending them flying.

He roared as everything shock around him before breaking to pieces. People screamed and ran away from the destruction, but he wouldn't have any of that. He would destroy everything. Extending his right hand out he formed a small dense orb of black energy. The small object creaked with energy as he brought it in front of him. He aimed it right at the Hyuga main house hold and fired. The blast destroyed everything in it path. But the house still stood broken here and there but stood. His hated was solely changed to the main house. He walked up the house as people screamed for loved ones and for their own lives. Where ever he stepped the ground gave away. In his wake he left utter chaos.

Before he knew it he was running right at the main house. The front doors just like the gate doors blasted open. The ladies in waiting screamed as they scattered all around him. He wanted blood to run through the streets but he wanted one person blood most of all. He searched the house as people just ran out of his way until he came to the main training room where Lady Hanabi and her father stood with weapon at hand.

"This is unacceptable behavior even for you your highness!" Yelled Lord Hyuga.

"We will not stand for this!" yelled Lady Hanabi.

"Stand?" he questioned in a low menacing voice. "I can give less of a damn what you stand for." He yelled as he went at them. The Hyuga's held their ground as Naruto went at them. They were no match for Naruto as he flung Lord Hashish into a wall. He grabbed Lady Hanabi by the neck and looked at her struggle as the acid his power radiated bled into her skin. She screamed as she tried to get him to let go. "I will kill you where you stand." he hissed as looked her right in the eyes. He was so focused in killing lady Hanabi that he didn't noticed a boy come into the room.

"Let her go!" he ordered as Naruto looked over to him. He had seen that boy before. "If you looking to blame someone blame me!" he yelled as that got Naruto's attention as he dropped Hanabi. "I'm the reason that took her not them!" he yelled as Naruto slowly stalked over to him.

"You want to die in her place?" hissed Naruto as he brought his hand up to strike him when Sasuke appeared out of nowhere and stopped his hand.

"That is enough." He said roughly as he looked around the room.

"Release me." Ordered Naruto in a deadly voice.

"Look at yourself." Spat Sasuke at him. "You've been reduced into nothing but an animal."

"Release me!" he ordered again.

"For what so she can hate you for the rest of her life? She alive and getting better but she doesn't need to know that you've killed everyone she's ever known and cared for."

"They don't deserve to live." He hissed

"Your right they don't but you know better then to kill them." Answered Sasuke as that seems to get through. Naruto sighed out angrily before bring down his hand. He looked at Sasuke for a moment before he disappeared. Sasuke closed his eyes for a mere moment before he looked behind him to Neji. Neji watched him as he crossed his arms. "Get up." He demanded. Neji hadn't figured out that he had fallen down when Naruto came at him.

"Thank you." Muttered Neji as he got up.

"I wouldn't be thanking me." He hissed as walked over to the Hyuga's who huddled together. He grabbed hold of lady Hanabi's arm and brought her up to her knees "I'm not as forgiving." He hissed as he nails expanded into dark claws. Lady Hanabi's eyes widen before Sasuke plunged his nails straight into her eyes. She gave out a horrible shriek as Sasuke blinded her. He threw her to the floor like a lump of trash as Lord Hyuga watched in horror. "There is your heiress now." He told him as he walk calmly out of the room.

~Else where~

Naruto returned to the castle as he watched over Hinata. She was so pale it scared him that she would die. Though Itachi had told him she was a completely out of danger it still worried him. He didn't what to leave her side. Not for a moment he would never let her leave him again. Sasuke had return moment after he had. His left hand was stained with fresh blood. He wanted to question him about it but thought against it. Itachi Sasuke's brother seems worried as he looked at his brother's hand.

"Please tell me that you didn't do what I think you did."

"I didn't kill anyone if that is what your asking." Remarked Sasuke.

"Naruto is not the only danger this clan faces." Mutter Itachi.

"I'm under total control if that is what you're hinting at." Sasuke stated.

"Then who's blood is it on your hands?" asked Itachi as Sasuke looked at his hand.

"Lady Hanabi's." he answered as Itachi sighed out. For the first time Naruto seemed interested in what they where talking about.

"Why do you have her blood on your hand hands?" asked Naruto as he got up. Sasuke smirked as he watched Naruto.

"Does it matter?" he questioned.

"Of course it matters!" he yelled at him. "You told me that it should matter and you went off and killed her!" he yelled at him.

"I didn't kill her." He answered as both his brother and Naruto looked at him. "I blinded her that's all." He said like it was nothing, yet it meant everything. Naruto seemed to understand at that moment why Sasuke did what he did. He knew that as the prince it wouldn't look good if he harmed the Hyuga's but he as a bodyguard could do as he wished. Sasuke hardly showed emotions towards anyone but what he did was nothing but pure rage on his part. He must've seen something far worse then anything he could even imagined. But Sasuke sacrifice was still be in vain he knew as soon as he attacked the Hyuga compound they would come after him in spades now. They would rage war against him and demand from the people a new prince. He had done something foolish and unwise. There was no turning back now.

His country would plummet into a war. He sighed as Sasuke and Itachi looked at him. "I didn't do it for you." Spoke Sasuke clearly as Naruto looked over to him. He such a liar.

"No, but I'm afraid we have bigger problems because of my foolishness." Mutter Naruto.

"It's hardly your fault your highness." Itachi tried to comfort.

"Yes, it is his fault." Sasuke butted in as Itachi glared at him. "Don't sugarcoat it. War will be at our door soon if your still here." He told him as both Naruto and Itachi looked over to him.

"What are you suggesting?" questioned Naruto as he looked at Sasuke.

"That you disappear." He said simply as both Itachi and Naruto looked totally shocked.

"Running away won't help anything!" he yelled as he stood up. He was face to face with Sasuke.

"At this point you're facing a civil war because of your actions. You know no court will help you. It's the only option you have. They will kill her if they get their hands on her again." Explained Sasuke as Naruto looked to be getting more upset by his words.

"I'm the prince." He said simply.

"Who lost his head over a woman." Corrected Sasuke. "Do you know how the people will see that? You crown prince Naruto lost his head over a woman who by all means was never meant to be his bride thanks to a loophole. No one will accept that Naruto. Prince or no Prince."

"So you would have me run from my own Kingdome?" he yelled as Sasuke stayed silent for a moment before he sighed out.

"It's the only choice you have in order for her to live." He pointed out. "We can't keep her. You know clan law out weighs our own, and if in their eyes she broke clan law we have no right to shelter her."

"That's bullshit!" yelled Naruto.

"It's the laws of your kingdom you never paid attention to." Sasuke throw back at him.

"Then I will change them!"

"How do you plan to do that? You openly attacked a clan. You broke the rules in front of hundreds and now you plan to impose new rules on them? You're not using your head."

"The only choice you're going me is banishment!" he yelled back

"I don't know any other choice to give you!" yelled Sasuke as he lost his calm temper. Naruto looked over at him. "I agree with you on what you did but I have to remind you of what you did. My job is to protect your ass and that's what I'm doing weather you dislike me for it or not." He explained as he stormed out the door.

Naurto stood there looking at where Sasuke was standing. Sasuke hardly lost his temper even with him, but now he lost it over him. He looked back at Hinata as she slept. She looked pale white but other then that she was healing. As he stood there he knew he would do anything for her even if it meant dying, but abandoning his kingdom to face some unknown danger of a civil war was crushing him. He was a prince but be felt utterly useless. He sat down next to her bed and took her hand in his.

He didn't know what do and it was killing him. Should he run away or lose her to her clan. The rules were unfair but as Sasuke said it was rules he neglected to learn. Rules he didn't care to listen to until they applied to him. Deep down he knew what he had to do but he still hesitated. She was his everything and it would cost him everything to keep her.

~else where ~

A shrill shriek went out into the night as the healer tried to help Lady Hanabi. She lashed out at them as she continued to scream in anger. They had just told her she would never see again. That the prince's guard had severed several nerves in eyes that allowed light to enter her eyes. He didn't finish there though he also severed the nerves that allowed her to use her blood line trait. He had rendered her completely useless and her hatred for him grew by the moment. She yelled again as she pushed whoever it was trying to get near her.

"Lord Haishi! She can't continue like this! She needs to be treated immediately!" yelled one of the healers as Lord Haishi watched Hanabi struggle. He still couldn't believe what had happen.

"What can be done to restore her eyesight?" he asked as he watched the healers struggle with Hanabi.

"Her eyes are useless." the healer stated. "She needs a transplant if you want her to see again but seeing as only main branch family members are the only ones that don't have a seal on their eyes it's impossible." Explained the healer as Lord Haishi listen. There was a way but he didn't want to discuss it with the healer. He would get his revenge for what happen to his clan, even if he had to bring down a prince of his own kingdom. He wouldn't be shamed by his family disgrace again. She would be useful soon enough but first he had to bring down her protectors.

His anger simmered to a boil as he thought of the damn guard who dared raised a hand to Hanabi he would be the first to fall. He would make sure of that.

~else where~

She had waited for death for so long she no longer knew if she was alive. She knew she was breathing so that had to be a sign that she was alive right? She could feel a weight on her hand. It was warm and it encircled her own cold hand. She remembers hearing something arguing about a civil war because of her. Had she caused more trouble again? The thought made her stomach knot up. She was causing trouble even dead, but was she really dead? She wanted to be it was easier wasn't it?

She felt her hand shift as the warm one around hers picked it up. She felt the small brush of a kiss on the back of her palm. Who would treat her like she mattered she didn't know.

"I won't let them hurt you ever again." Someone muttered as she listened. Their voice sounded so tired so drained but she knew that voice. It was the only voice she had hoped to hear one more time. She willed her self to open her eyes as she looked at the halo of blonde hair at her bedside. He was there with her. "Hinata?" he half whispered as if he was afraid his very voice would break her. His hand instantly left hers to touch her face.

"Your highness?" she questioned. Her throat felt like it had be scrubbed raw with sandpaper. Her voice came out hoarse and it hurt her throat. It felt like she was trying to swim up river as her eyes started to close again.

"You need to rest Hinata." He told her as he laid her head back down on the pillow. Why was he here? Where was here? She had so many questions but it looked like she wasn't going to get any answer any time soon so she let sleep take her. Naruto watched as Hinata drifted back to sleep. The same rage still burned in his gut but Sasuke was right. He shouldn't have taken action against the Hyuga clan, but he did and the anger just wouldn't go away until he killed every last one of them. Yet he wasn't willing to plunge his nation to war. It was a war that he alone need to fight but he knew that in the end his people would be the ones that paid the price, but if he didn't do anything nothing would change. The clans will keep treating the branch members like trash. He looked over to Hinata. She wasn't a branch member she was from the main house hold and look what they had done to her just because she wasn't perfect in their eyes.

Could he really let that go? Could he just walk away from everything? The question kept circling his brain as he watched her sleep. He didn't know what to do.

~else where~

They were coming. Like a mob of angry wasp they swarm the gates of the castle. Sasuke watched from his perch up on one of the castle towers. So it was time the Hyuga clan showed their true colors. He knew they would come for him, Naruto was just an added bonus. He would have to play his cards right in this puppet show if he wanted to gain Naruto's alliance. He should feel bad but he didn't he knew that it was for the best. It would kill two birds with one stone if he could convince him. He went down the stairs and straight to where Naruto was at.

He opened the door as he spotted Naruto looking at Hinata like a lost puppy. He really was pathetic at times but this was not the time to point that out.

"The Hyuga's are at the front gate." He informed him as Naruto looked over to him.

"What?" he asked a little dazed.

"They are demanding justice for lady Hanabi." He informed. "They demand you hand over Lady Hinata." He told him. "And they most likely want my head on a platter."

"Why you?" he asked as if for the first time realizing that Sasuke was also on the chopping block.

"Why me?" asked Sasuke with a chuckle. "I dishonored their clan more then you. Wouldn't you come after me if did it to your clan?" he asked like he was questioning a child. "I a mere servant dared raise a hand to a pure blood like them." He seems to laugh out loud now. It was like madness hide behind his eyes. Something Naruto hadn't seen out of Sasuke before. The door opened again and this time Shikamaru came in.

"Highness! The Hygua clan is at our door demanding we hand over Lady Hinata and Sasuke." He informed. "If we don't hand them over they will take that as a sign of war." He explained. Naruto looked over to Shikamaru he noticed he was panicking something that he never seen on him either. It seem like everything was coming together to destroy him. He would not only lose Hinata he would lose Sasuke as well. He looked at his guard for a moment. Sasuke didn't seem worried but that same madness was still lingering behind his eyes.

"Hand us over." He said without fear as Naruto looked over to him like he had grown an extra head. "If you hand us over they can't go to war with you. If we escape while there it can't be you fault can it?" he asked as that madness behind his eyes shinned.

"What are you saying?" asked Naruto as he looked at Sasuke like he had gone mad.

"That you let them go with the Hyugas." Input Shikamaru as Naruto now looked over to his guard. "If Sasuke can escape with Lady Hinata they can't blame you. They won't have cause to come after you. You gave them over to them willingly they can't march on us on good faith." He informed Naruto as he seems to be think this over. He wasn't too convince. "Sasuke is second strongest to you your highness. If anyone can pull this off it would be him."

"Then what will happen when he escapes? What will happen when both of you escape? Hinata is in no form to fight let alone stand." he argued.

"I will bring her back." Sasuke said

"And you?" demand Naruto

"I will fight you for the crown." He told him simply as that same madness shined in his eyes. Shikamaru looked shocked as he looked over to Sasuke.

"Get out." Ordered Naruto as he looked over to Shikamaru. "Tell the Hyugas I will be with them shortly." Shikamaru nodded and bowed before he left the room. "Do you mind telling what the hell is going though that demented head of yours?" demanded Naruto as he looked at Sasuke.

"I'm creating an opening." He remarked.

"You're putting yourself in danger!" he yelled at him.

"This is hardly dangerous and you know better than anyone that I not someone you can kill."

"Don't count yourself so highly. You can still die!" he yelled at him.

"I don't plan to." He said simply

"Things don't always go according to plan." He hissed at him.

"Your right they don't. But I have an ace in the hole." He grinned as Naruto looked confused.

~Throne room~

The Hyugas crowed the room as the doors to the throne room burst open. Naruto was wearing his royal robes over this armor. He looked every bit of a prince as he walked into the room. He sat in this chair as the Hyugas seem to understand where they were. They might be the angry mob but he was still the prince of the demon clan. He was still ruler of everything and everyone.

"May I know the reason why you're in my court?" he demand as all whisperings silenced instantly. He posed an air of not to mess with and many of the Hyugas were thinking twice about marching into his castle.

"We are here to demand that you give us the traitor and the worthless guard!" Yelled Lord Haishi who didn't seem to care as to where he was at. Sasuke tilted his head slightly his mask hiding his face.

"You want my personal bodyguard?" Questioned Naruto was uneasy ran though the room like a pelage. "Do you expect me to hand him over to you?" He asked frostily.

"He has committed a sin against our clan" hissed Haishi "he dared to raise his hand against my only daughter your future wife!" he spat out at Naruto. Naruto's eyes narrowed at the last comment as he looked at Lord Haishi. He could hardly control his anger as he wanted to get up and murder everyone in the room. Sasuke's hand can upon his shoulder as he walked forward.

"If it's me your after, I'll go with you willingly. No need to make yourself look like a foolish mob in my behalf." He insulted as he stepped down with his arms in the air as a sign of surrender. Kakashi stepped forward to stop Sasuke but Naruto raised his hand to stop him. Lord Haishi nodded so that they shackled Sasuke instantly.

"Remove that mask." He ordered as one of the Hyugas went for Sasuke's mask.

"I wouldn't do that." Naruto warned. "He doesn't like showing his face to people." That seemed to give Lord Haishi more reason to remove it. He grabbed hold of the mask and ripped it off Sasuke's face. Behind the mask was Sasuke face of cold indifference, but his eyes where blood red. For a small moment he looked like he was insane for that small moment Haishi was terrified of what he saw.

"Don't tell me you fell in love with me? I like women over men thanks." Mocked Sasuke as he looked into his eyes terrifying Haishi enough to back away.

"Take him away." He hissed as he reminds himself that Sasuke was his prisoner not the other way around.

"As for the woman," came Naruto's voice it got the attention of the crowd. "She was half dead when she was brought to my castle lord Hyuga. Am I to believe that you would treat your clan member so poorly?" he challenged

"She is not of my clan." He hissed

"Then why demand her back then? If she is not of your clan?" he asked calmly his narrow eyes staring down Lord Haishi.

"She is a traitor to the clan." He hissed.

"But she is of you clan correct?" He asked again this time with an edge to it.

"Yes." Hissed lord Haishi unwilling to admit that Hinata belong to the Hyuga clan.

"Then why was she beaten to the point of close to death and don't think me stupid Lord Haishi I know exactly who she is." He accused as room became very cold for a moment. "According to the contract my father signed I was to marry the heiress of the Hyuga clan. At that time my father spoke of a different girl. The very same girl I have in my castle. Are you trying to play me for a fool by offering me a fake heiress?" he demanded. For a moment the room was completely silent as they watched Naruto. It was more then apparent no one had thought of that.

"The contract states the heiress of the Hyuga clan. She lost that right when she lost to her younger sister." Stated Haishi determined not to lose to Naruto.

"Had you planed on ever telling me that small fact?" he asked "or did you even plan to tell me?" he asked as he raised an eyebrow. "What would've happen when my father came back and didn't know the woman standing beside me? Did you not think of the dishonor you would've brought upon me? Had you no idea I could behead your whole family for treason against the crown?" he asked frostily. "Are you aware I could've killed your whole family if it wasn't for that worthless guard as you call him?" he asked as his blue eyes started to turn black and red. "Do you plan to anger me any further Lord Hyuga? He asked as it felt like Haishi was all alone in the room.

"I went according to the contract no where does it state it was meant for that traitor." He barked back. Everyone in the room looked at Lord Hyuga. Either he was a very brave man or a very foolish person. "With all due respect your highness this is clan matter which you have no say in." he said it with triumph. The rest of his clan looked at him like he was insane. Kakashi's one eye darted between Hyuga to the prince. Naruto was about to speak when the doors to the throne room opened. Everyone turned to look at who had come from them. Standing in the doorway was Hinata pale as a ghost but standing with her back straight. The room went into a mummer of whispers as she hobbled slightly into the room.

She walked straight to where Naruto was sitting on his throne and bowed as far as her body let her. Everyone watched her as Naruto looked completely shocked to see her moving.

"Your highness." She spoke in low voice. Even if her voice was soft it carried through out the room.

"Hinata." He half whispered as he stood up slightly out of his chair.

"Please allow me to return to the Hyuga clan." She pleaded as she got on her knees. "I have caused enough trouble for my clan, please don't shame me farther." She said as she hid her eyes from him. Naruto sat back down at her words and looked shocked at her. The room was deadly silent as they all watched Naruto. It looked like his face went deadly pale as his eyes bled away to their original blue eyes. An overwhelming sadness seemed to take the place of the rage that had be there a minute ago. His eyes looked at her but she didn't dare to look up at him. Her head was bowed so low so that he couldn't see her tears. She didn't want to say that to him, but she had heard that he would go to war with the Hyuga clan. She couldn't do that to him. Her family wasn't the best but they were still her family and he had become her everything. She couldn't let him get hurt not because of her.

"Your clan has a rule doesn't it Haishi? Even a traitor is entitled protector if they are willing to defend the person." Naruto spoke but this time it was cold and collected. Hinata looked up to Naruto this time. He looked her right in the eyes. That same sadness lingered there but it was quickly being suppressed but rage.

"There is no one in the clan willing to protect her." Haishi remarked cruelly as he looked at his clan member to make sure no one would speak up.

"Don't lie to me Lord Hyuga." Warned Naruto as his eyes bled back to black and red. The people in the room looked at lord Hyuga as Naruto looked at all of them. At the very back of the room Naruto spotted a familiar face. "You." He pointed to the boy that had protected the base of the tower. He looked a little shocked at being address at first them composed himself. "Come forward." He instructed as Neji walked forward he looked slightly over to lord Hyuga. It was a quick and guilty glance but Naruto saw it. He bowed slightly in front of Naruto as he waited to be addressed. "I have seen you before have I not?" He asked as Neji nodded his head at the question. He had seen him at lest a dozen time when he passed the tower in the garden. "You are her protector? Am I wrong?" he asked him point blank.

"I am." Neji spoke as he could feel Lord Hyuga's glare at the back of his neck. He felt slightly guilty at admitting it because it went against what Lord Haishi had said but he wouldn't lie either.

"Are you still willing to protect lady Hinata?" he questioned him as Neji looked over to Hinata. He hadn't known she had been beaten but now he could see it in her pale skin. She looked frail like she hadn't eaten in days. The elders had lied to him and he felt betrayed by the clan he swore to protect with his life. His father had taught him that his family was the most important thing, and it was his very family that had lied to him. His loyalty was bound to the Hyuga clan but Hinata was still a Hyuga even if they didn't see it as so.

"I am." He confirmed as the whispering started anew in the room. If looks could kill Neji would've been dead four times over.

"If the boy is her guardian I will let you leave my court. " Naruto muttered a he leaned back. Lord Haishi looked livid he knew that if Neji was Hinata's guardian it would be harder to take her eyes for Hanabi, but it looked like Prince Naruto wasn't going to budge from his place on the matter. It was a loop hole in their laws but it didn't matter he would just have to make sure they killed Neji as well. He was a good solider but at the end of the day he was nothing but cannon fodder.

"If the boy says he is then so be it." Lord Haishi waved off like it was nothing.

"No!" yelled Hinata as looked to over to Neji. Everyone looked over to her as her outburst still echoed around the room.

"It has been decided you have no say in the matter traitor." Hissed lord Haishi. Naruto growled loudly as everyone looked over to him.

"If there isn't anything else lord Haishi get out of my sight!" he ordered as Haishi bowed down mockingly at Naruto. Neji leaned down and picked up Hinata slightly as she tried to push him away. She knew what it meant to have Neji protecting her they planed to kill her and they would kill him as well. Neji was innocent he didn't commit any crime that he need to be punished but he was going down with her. She couldn't hold in her sadness and gave a sad sob as she hugged Neji. He held her as he knew why she was crying. He didn't fear death it was something he knew would come from him but he didn't like the fact that she would die for his failure.

Naruto watched through his fingers as the Hyuga's carried away his mate and his best friend. His heart felt heavy as he watched them go. He wanted to run to get her. He wanted to do something other then sitting there doing nothing. Kakshi and Shikamaru watched as Naruto ran his hands through his hair.

"He has an hour." He hissed as Shikamaru looked over to Naruto. "If he's not back with her by then I will destroy anything connected with the Hyuga name. I will lace my hands with there blood and destroy their memory." He said darkly as both Kakashi and Shikamaru looked at each other and silently prayed that Sasuke would come back soon.

~Hyuga Compound~

They shoved at Sasuke as the tugged him along the corridor where they had kept lady Hinata. He didn't grunt in pain as they pushed him into the room. They forced him on to his knees as one of the guards grabbed onto his hair pulling his head up. They took his weapons from his pockets and the only sword he had on his person. He watched as they placed it on the table next to the only door in the room. His attention was brought back with a sharp tug at his spiky hair. Lord Haishi was standing in front of him with a look of disgust on his face.

"I will make sure you never leave here alive." He told him as the guards shackled him to the ground. One of them cut his hand with a sharp knife drawing a line of blood onto his palm. They squeezed his hand until blood fell to the floor activating the blood seal under him. The seal flashed brightly around him as wall of light went up around him. He watched as lord Haishi walked over to the wall and pulled a whip from it. The end of the whip had small spikes about 2 inches long made out of pure diamond.

"You know what these are?" he questioned Sasuke as he showed him the end of his whip. "They're pure diamonds." He told him like he was enjoying a good wine. "You'll have the honor of screaming like no other person has ever screamed before!" he told Sasuke as he lashed the whip out and slashed his check open. His skin sizzled as his wounds bled out, yet Sasuke didn't say a word. He didn't make a sound as he turned back around to look at Haishi. His red eyes looked right into him as if challenging him to do it again. Anger welled up in Haishi as he brought the whip down on Sasuke again this time the diamond tore at his left shoulder, yet Sasuke didn't yell or even looked like he was in pain. He just looked at Lord Haishi like a fly could do a better job then he could.

Fueled by hatred he lashed at Sasuke without mercy. Over and over again the whip hit Sasuke tearing skin wherever it touched. After about 10 minutes of pure lashings Lord Haishi was panting out of exhaustion while Sasuke still on his knees looked up to lord Haishi. He's body was riddled with scars as blood pooled all around him. It poured from his wounds but his eyes where fixed on lord Haishi like if he was waiting for something. He hadn't made a single sound, nor made any look of pain when he was whipped. Diamond was deadly for demons. It was the most painful thing that can be applied to a demon skin. It would leave deep wounds and won't heal unless the skin was cartelized by a hot flame. Even riddled with so many wounds Sasuke still looked like he was superior to Lord Haishi.

He wanted to erase that look out of his eyes so bad he lashed the whip at his eyes. He moved his head slightly as the impact hit the side of his head, but other then that he eyes where fine. The guards watched in horror was this torment went on for another five minutes before Lord Haishi was warn out. No demon could survive what he just went though it was impossible but there he was kneeing in front of Lord Haishi like he hadn't even taken a beating. Lord Haishi heaved heavily as he looked at Sasuke.

"Kill him!" He ordered as he handed his whip over to one of the guards. He walked out of the room even more angry than when he had stepped in. He slammed the door behind him as he started up the hallways when he heard Sasuke laughing in a maniacal way it sent chills down Haishi spine then it stop instantly. Like someone had stabbed him in the middle of his laughter. He hadn't even noticed he had stopped in the middle of walking he started to walk again this time he was stopped by the sound of something loud slamming into the ground. He turned to look over to the door. That same fear crawled up his spine as he looked at the door. The sound of something slamming down was heard again but this time louder.

He so routed to the spot his feet forgot how to move. He stared at the door waiting for something to happen. There was a small window on the door that had bars that let you see a small portion of the room. Lord Haishi's gazed was locked onto the window for a minute nothing appeared in that small gap and the banging sound didn't come again. He was about to turn around when two red eyes looked right back at him from the small gap.

"Knock, knock." He mocked in a hunting voice as the blood ran out of Lord Haishi face.

~Else where~

Neji was breathing heavily as he knocked away another approaching member of the Hyuga clan. They had been attacking him without mercy one after another they came at him. He wouldn't last very long at this point but he had no choice but to fall. Yet he couldn't fall if he did Lady Hinata would die. He threw off another Hygua clan member off him as he looked behind him. Hinata was standing behind him looking frighten but still holding her ground. She wouldn't fall to her knees even if her whole body ached with all the heavy whipping she had gotten. She wouldn't show that she was still so close to death just so he wouldn't worry.

He felt a sharp jab to his shoulder and let out a groaned. That was the fourth time he had gotten hit from behind. Taking the energy he had left he yelled out loudly and planted his staff on the floor using chakra to blow his opponents back. He breathed in heavily as he held on to the staff. He managed to defeat the 100 that clan had promised to send his way. After the 100 they should leave Lady Hinata until the next night when he would have to repeat the process of fighting them all over again. He slid down the staff completely exhausted as Hinata ran over to him. She caught him in her arms as she tried to talk to him but he was so tired he couldn't hear anymore.

Hinata watched as Neji's eyes closed out of exhaustion. He managed to protect her for now but he couldn't continue the way he was going. He would fall soon and they both will be killed. She didn't want him to die for her. She didn't think she was worth his life. She moved his hair form his face when a whip coiled around her neck making her gasp as it dragged her way from Neji. She watched as out of the shadows more members of the Hygua clan came out. Neji was one the floor not moving as one of them pulled out a sword from his belt. She wanted to yell but the whip around her neck was tight. She heard as Hanabi barked orders behind her.

"Kill him while he's down. We don't need useless trash like him to ruin the Hyuga name." Something in Hinata shifted as she craned her neck to look at who had been holding her. She found none other then Hanabi holding the whip looking blankly ahead. She pulled on the whip as if to make sure Hianta was still at the end of it. Hinata clawed at the whip as she found the end of it and dislodged it from her neck. She ran over to Neji and shielded him.

"It's me your after leave him out of this!" she yelled as Hanabi snapped her whip blindly in front of her.

"We will do as we want traitor!" She yelled as she cracked the whip and almost hit a person standing next to Hinata. She really was blind, Hinata realized as she looked at her younger sister. But she didn't have time to think on it as the whip came at her and Neji this time. She put her arm out to protect herself as the whip coiled around her forearm. This time she tugged at the whip making Hanabi slightly unstable for a moment.

"You are the ones bringing shame to the Hyuga name by attacking a man that is down. The deal was if he defeated 100 men I could live another day are you so shameless to break that promise?" she demanded as Hanabi grabbed onto the whip tightly trying to cause harm to Hinata's arm.

"Don't speak of shameless when you're guilty of stealing my husband!" she yelled at Hinata. A wave of guilt went through her as that statement was thrown back at her. Whatever brave front she had it fell with that sentence. It was that moment that Neji woke up again. He looked up to see Lady Hinata hovering over him protecting him. "Shameless whore!" Yelled Hanabi as she pulled the whip forward as Hinata faltered and lunged forward. "I will never let you have him! He's mine! He was never yours to touch your filthy bitch!" she yelled as she was about to pull Hinata to the floor but Neji grabbed hold of her waist.

At one point Neji must have cut his hands as the blood touch Hinata he felt a sharp pull in his gut like a fish hook had grabbed a hold of his insides. For a moment he was dazed as memories poured into his mind one after another. They where memories of him, he realized as more memories poured in one after another. Then he saw it the face he knew about only by description. She smiled at him as she held young Hinata in her arms. She stretched out her hand out to him as he mindlessly reached out and touched her. She glowed brightly before she disappeared. He blinked a couple of times as he was now looking at the lady Hinata fully grown on the ground. He had stood up at some point. The rest of the Hyuga clan looked at him like he had done something he wasn't suppose to.

"What's going on?" questioned Hanabi as she moved her head back and forth like she was trying to see what was happening. Neji looked beside him and saw a red figure beside him.

It was clearly the figure of a woman by the looks of the body. She had no face so he didn't know for sure. His right palm seems to burn as he looked at the figure before him. Almost as if it was second nature he placed his hand in front of the figures face. Instantly something shot into the figure as a face started to from. Long hair formed and came down to the figures hip. It had an eerie beauty as it opened its eyes and looked over to Neji. She smiled for a moment then bowed her head at him.

"Thank you Neji-san." The figure spoke as Neji looked at the figure in horror for a moment before he nodded his head. The rest of the Hyugas now looked at the figure in total shock. "Is this what has become of the Hyuga clan?" she questioned as everyone looked at the figure. Hinata looked up at the voice. It was a voice she hadn't heard in years.

"Mother?" she questioned as she looked at the clone made out of blood. The woman smiled at Hinata and walked over to her. She moved slowly over to where Hinata was kneeling. She smiled gently at Hinata.

"You've grown so beautifully." She told her as she tried to touch Hinata only to smear blood on her face. She winched and drew back her hand. A sad expression crossed her face as she looked at the state her daughter was in. "What has that idiot of a man done to you?" she muttered to herself as she looked around. Across the room she spotted Hanabi with her whip extended over to Hinata. "Explain." She demands as she looked at one of the Hyuga on the side. He swallows as he looked at the clone. At first he didn't look like he would say anything but the clone walk right up to him. "I'm waiting." She said in a scary voice.

"She's a traitor." He muttered as the other Hyugas looked over to him.

"What the hell is going on? Who the fuck are you?!" yelled Hanabi angrily as she cracked her whip in the air. "Who gave you permission to be here?" she yelled as the clone turned her head over to where Hanabi stood. A dark shadow seems to pass over the clones face as she came to face Hanabi.

"You, who taught you manners, brat." She sneered at Hanabi. That seems to throw Hanabi off. "I bet you anything it was that idiot husband of mine." She hissed as she seethed with anger. "That ridicules man and his only the strong survive logic. I'm ashamed of ever calling myself your mother." She muttered darkly as she moved over to Hinata. She looked over to her daughter on the floor and smiled gently. "Get up Hinata." She said softly as Hinata managed to get to her feet. Her mother examined her from head to toe. "What did they do to you?" she asked no one in particular.

"They want to kill her for falling love with the prince of demons." Answered Neji as Hinata turned over to look at Neji. She hadn't been aware for her own feeling but Neji seem to know them. Was she in love with Naruto? She questioned but she had already known the answer to that question. She was in love with him it was shameless of her.

"And what is wrong with that? She is meant to marry him anyway I don't understand." Spoke the clone.

"She lost the title of heiress to Lady Hanabi. In doing so Lady Hanabi was chosen to become the prince's bride." Explained Neji.

"That not possible." She said immediately.

"That's what she's being accused of." Neji Informed.

"He can't marry Hanabi." She told everyone in the room as they all looked at her. "Because he bonded with Hinata." She explained. "The contract was for Naruto to marry Hinata when they were old enough to understand that they were bonded since childhood to each other. Granted it's not a completed a bond so Naruto had a seal place on him since that day forward along with Hinata." She explained to Neji and Hinata. "Don't tell me that Idiot husband believe it was a simple contract he could rewrite for a stronger offspring!?" She hissed as anger seems to go around her.

At this moment Hinata seem to understand everything. She had hated her feeling for Naruto because she thought she was betraying her sister but it was she who her family was betraying. Anger stung as she realized all the humiliation she went through at the hands of her would be family. Even her being less of demon because her eyes didn't posses the family trait, but now she knew that wasn't true. She felt tears run down her cheek as she looked at the ground. Her mother saw her and walked in front of her.

"Hinata I…" She was about to say when Hanabi's whip slashed her in half destroying the image of her mother. The blood splattered on the floor and onto Hinata's face.

"I've had enough of this bullshit! Naruto belongs to me!" she yelled as she twisted her whip in the air in an arch. Neji yelled as he clutched his forehead and fell to the ground motionless. Hinata was frozen for a moment before anger took over. Hanabi whip came at her as she plucked it from the air like it was pesky fly. Hanabi tried to pull it back but Hinata's grip was tight. "I will dispose of you weak bitch and everything will go back to how it should be!"

"You're wrong Hanabi." Said Hinata as she pulled the whip out of her hands. "I'm not weak." She said without picking up her head. She picked up her head slowly to show the Hyuga clan she no long would take their abuse. She had active her blood line trait. "And you're wrong about Naruto. He belongs to me." She answered as the Hyuga clan took that chance to attack her. It was like something out of a dream as Hinata move fluently taking one of clan member out as if they were toys. She could see the flows of their chakra as they came at her. One by one she cut off their circulation rendering them immobile. As the last on came at her she back handed him so hard he slammed into the wall with a solid thunk. The last one in the room was Hanabi she yelled at her and ran at her furiously Hinata stood there as her blind sister came at her. In a swift motion she cut circulation to both her sisters' arms. She half turned and slammed her hand on the back of Hanabi's neck making her drop like a rock to the floor.

She looked around as the door opened and there stood Sasuke. He looked a little perplexed for moment before he shrugged it off. He looked at Lady Hinata for a long moment before he bowed his head slightly.

"Take me to my mate." She demanded as Sasuke raised an eyebrow before he smirked.

"As you wish my Lady." He answered.

~Else where~

Naruto had been rather calm as the guards were the ones on the edge. Sasuke wasn't taking forever but the minutes seem like forever yet what Hinata had said to him before stringed. "I have caused enough trouble for my clan, please don't shame me farther." The statement hit like a sledge hammer. He didn't know how she would react once Sasuke kidnapped her and brought her here to him. If she hated him he didn't know what he would do. Itachi was looking out the window for any sign of his brother. He looked rather pale like he didn't get much sleep.

"Your highness is there something wrong?" asked Itachi as he looked over to Naruto.

"I worried." He admitted as Itachi looked confused for a moment.

"He'll return." He told him as Naruto smiled slightly. Sasuke wouldn't let him down he knew that but what would he bring back with him is what worried him.

"You're Highness." It was Kakashi this time. "They're coming." He said has he pointed at the far end of the forest. Naruto walked over to the window and looked at both Hinata and Sasuke walking over to castle. None of them seem to be harmed but Hinata looked different. She held herself a little straighter like she was proud of something. He looked away almost in fear that she would see him. He felt like a teenager looking at the girl he liked for the window when she wasn't looking it was cute. The guards looked at him as he blush bright red.

"I never thought I would see the day." Muttered Kakshi "Naruto afraid of a girl."

"I'm not afraid." He muttered but his face was still a bright red.

"We shouldn't keep them waiting." Warned Itachi as he headed to the doors. "Bother doesn't like waiting." He muttered with some amusement as if he could see Sasuke taking a blushing Naruto and dragging him straight to Hinata. They walked slowly since Naruto was dragging his heels over to the infirmary. They got to the doors and Naruto stop completely even before getting to the doors. He didn't want to go through them he didn't know what awaited him on the other side. His face didn't stop being red as he thought about Hinata being on the other side. Almost as if Itachi knew he was hesitating he opened the door wide and looked into the room. Sasuke was sitting in a chair by bed in which lady Hinata was resting in.

"Took your sweet time." He muttered as Naruto slowly walked into the room. "Stop fearing she came willingly." He told him. At that moment Hinata opened her eyes and smiled at Naruto. If he was red before his whole body seem to turn that color as she extend her hand over to him. He walked up to her silently and took hold of her hand. It was like lighten had struck him. Everything seems to come to life as he felt like a dam broke within him.

"I'm sorry." She whispered as Naruto breath seems get caught in his lungs.

"For what?" he said after a few moments of silence.

"For causing you so much trouble." She told him as she squeezed his hand. They gazed into each others eyes as Sasuke coughed slightly getting their attention.

"I think we should take our leave." He muttered to the other guards and they to felt awkward. They piled out of the room and left only Hinata and Naruto in the room.

"I thought I would never see you again." Muttered Hinata as Naruto turned to look at her. Her face slowly turned sad as tears began to fall down her face. Naruto wiped them way with is thumb as he smiled at her.

"I would rip the world apart in order to find you." He told her gently his hand was on her cheek as she leaned into it. "I can't live without you." He told her as her face bloomed a nice shade of pink. "Even if you hate me I would still go after you no matter where it would be." He told her as he brushed her hair aside. "I never want to be separated from you again. It would kill me." He told her as he looked her in the eyes. She smiled as she placed her hand on his face. Tears were streaming down her face as she kissed him soundly. He wrapped his arms around her body and brought her close to him. It was a happiness she didn't know she could have and she basked in it. He kissed her tenderly like he felt like she would break if he applied any of all the pent up emotion he was feeling.

He felt his forehead burn as his mating mark activated. Hinata broke the kiss and looked at his forehead. The symbol for courage was mark on his forehead. She leaned in and kissed it gently as his whole body seems to catch fire. It was feeling he never knew and it ran amuck in his body. He kissed her again but this time it was like she was the only thing that mattered in world. He kissed her with all the pent up feeling he had as she sighed softly. "I love you to much to ever let you go." Naruto whispered between their kiss as Hinata cried at his confession but still answered him back.

"I love you." She whispered back to him as they kissed over and over again.

The guards stood by the door but didn't enter as Sasuke leaned by the wall he sighed deeply before he slid down to the ground. He had sent Shikamaru and Kakashi away so it was only him and his brother. The glamour he had cast disappeared and all his wounds appeared on his flesh. He had horrible wounds that didn't seem to want to close and they festered and became bluish looking.

"What the hell happen to you?" asked itachi as he went over to his brother.

"Got my ass whipped by diamond." Muttered Sasuke as his every move seem to be painful.

"You stubborn ass." Itachi hissed as he started to work on his wounds but Sasuke stopped him.

"Don't let me feel the pain for a while." He told him as Itachi looked at his brother like he was insane.

"You're going to die if you don't get them treated." Hissed Itachi.

"I'm already a walking zombie." Joked Sasuke as he winced.

"I don't understand why you keep doing this to yourself." Muttered Itachi was he watched Sasuke.

"Punishment maybe?" he whispered

"Let me at lest get that poison out of your system." Itachi tried as Sasuke laughed at bit.

"I'll heal just let it go through me."

"You're doing all this for that little girl." Itachi stabbed at Sasuke with is index finger and pointer finger. "You're such an idiot." He muttered as Sasuke chuckled a bit.

"Yeah maybe." He told Itachi as his brother sighed out as he sat next to him.

~3 hours later~

He watched her sleep peacefully as her hair fell around her fair skin. She was beautiful and he knew now what he had to do. Carefully he got out of bed making sure not to wake her. He watched as her small figure slept and he couldn't believe she was his. It was for that same reason he had to do what he was going to do. He put on his pants and walked out of the room to find Sasuke sitting in the hallway looking rather bored. He had his arms crossed as he looked at Naruto.

"Been busy I see." He teased as Naruto blushed slightly and made a sign for Sasuke to get up. He did so a little more slowly then he normally does. He lifted a brow at Naruto as he started to walk down the hall.

"You're right." Said Naruto as Sasuke cringed slightly.

"Please spar me the details." He muttered as Naruto turned around and looked at him.

"About leaving you pervert." he hissed as Sasuke smirked. He had never been called a pervert before. Naruto turned around to look at the hallway again. "It's the best thing I can do now, for Hinata and you. I owe so much to you already it hard to admit it." He told Sasuke.

"Then repay me." Answered Sasuke as Naruto looked over to him.

"You want the kingdom?" he asked suspiciously. Sasuke shrugged before he spoke at again.

"That's an added bonus." He sighed out as now he was walking a little farther in front of Naruto. "No, what I want from you is a favor." Said Sasuke as he stopped "there is a little human girl at the leaf village of Kahona. I want you to go to her and act as her guardians."

"What is she your lover or something?" questioned Narutro with a small snicker on his face. Sasuke turned around with a dark look on his face as he smirked slightly. It made Naruto shiver slightly.

"The child is important to me." He answered as Naruto dropped the humor. Sasuke was deadly serious. "I'm trusting her to you Naruto this is what I want in return for all that I've done for you."

"So you want me to leave the kingdom to protect this girl." He muttered as he looked at Sasuke. Something about this little girl seems to intrigue Naruto. "Is she worth that much to you? Is she your daughter or something?" he asked totally confused at his friend's request.

"She not my daughter but she means more to me then my own safety." He told him as his glamour disappeared. Naruto looked at him in horror. "I will face the Hyuga clan and buy you time to disappear. I will make sure they never go after you or lady Hianta again as long as you promise to guard her." Naruto was silent for a moment before he understood what Sasuke was asking of him. He nodded his head in agreement. The look on his face told him that who ever this child was she was very important to him. And if it wasn't for him he never would've had Hinata. He had always known Sasuke was cold and calculating person but to have him show this side of him was rather rare. It was so rare it moved him to accept.

~Two days later ~

The kingdom was is a panic as the Hyuga clan declared war on the prince of demons. They marched up to the castle gates and demand that the prince see them. They had been there for a day and half when the gates finally opened for them to enter the castle. Clearly outraged with what the prince had done to their clan they marched into the audience chamber feeling full of themselves. They burst through the doors and walked up to the throne where a lone figure sat. He sat perfectly still as the Hyugas piled into the room. Beside the throne stood 8 guard four on each side of the throne. All of them dressed in black.

Lord Haishi walked up in front of the Hyuga clan when his eyes fell upon the man sitting on the throne. He was wearing white shirt that was open from the front with dark blue pants. He had a series of black belts going down his waist that had a holster for what looked like a sword. He had knee high boots that where polished so beautifully they shined. His hair was no longer spiked up but was down like it was being grown out. On his right ear four silver earrings gleamed. He smirked at Haishi as he leaned back.

"What brings you to my court Lord Haishi?" came his calm voice as Lord Haishi paled instantly.

"What is the meaning of this?!" He demand but he was still pale.

"I should be asking you the same thing. How dare you come into my court." He said coldly as everyone in the room went silent. "Do you plan to shame your family more then what they already have?" He asked as he stood up. The room went silent as he walked up to Lord Haishi.

"Your dare insult me?" questioned Haishi but he was close to falling to the floor.

"I insult you?" he questioned. "I plan to humiliate you." He told him with a smirk. "Is this all the Hyuga clan?" he questioned.

"They are the only one willing to fight you." Answered a red head guard. He smiled with a wicked look on his face. "That guy on the left is begging that you don't kill him." He informed.

"Then come at me." He told them calmly as he drew out his sword. It was as if he had offered to cut all of their heads at once. No one moved as they looked at him. "No?" he questioned as he looked at all of them. Lord Haishi didn't move just looked at the prince. The prince put away his sword as he looked at the crowed. "You dishonor me by being here yet you refuse to fight me." He spoke out loudly. "Leave before I kill you all." He informed as Lord Haishi seem to get his tongue back.

"You are nothing but an imposter!" he yelled at him. The prince looked at him.

"You never shut up do you?" he questioned as he walked up to Haishi "You speak of me being an imposter? Did you bite your tongue?" he asked with a smirk. "You planned to give the crown a fake heiress and you speak of me being the imposter?" he questioned. "Now you stand here before me demand I take that fake Heiress who is by far damaged goods?" he questioned as Haishi went red.

"How dare you!" he began but the prince silence him with a look.

"How stupid do you think me Lord Haishi? The girl has been damaged goods even before she became the fake Heiress. You dared offer a whole to the prince of Demons. I will not take trash as my wife and I should kill every one in your clan for trying to force it upon the crown but I made a promise that I wouldn't murder any of you." He went on. "In return I demand a member to take the place of the shame your family has brought over the crown." He said as Haishi was beyond pale now he looked three steps from fainting.

"And who would that be?" he hissed under his breath knowing all to well that the prince had won.

"The boy by the name of Neji Hyuga." He said simply as the Hyuga family looked surprised they thought that he would've demand Lady Hinata but it was Neji he was after. Neji had been brought along with the crowed even though he had refused to fight. His hands were tied as he stepped forward.

"Your highness." He said in a low voice as he bowed his head slightly.

"I want you to remove that curse seal immediately he now belongs to me his eyes included." The prince answered as he walked back to his throne.

"You won't get away with this." Muttered Lord Haishi as the prince turned and looked at Lord Hyuga. His black eyes turned red.

"Believe me when I say this Lord Hygua I plan to make your life a living hell." Said Sasuke as sat back down on the throne. "Now get out."

~Else where~

Hinata and Naruto had just made to the leaf village. The day was sunny and nice. The villagers where happily going about their own lives as they walked down the main village road.

"Naruto.." started Hinata as he held her hand.

"Everything will be okay." He smiled at her as she gave a small smile. He looked around for a moment before he seems to find what he was looking for. "Let go over there okay?" he asked as he dragged her along to what looked like play ground. Human kids played all about the place as they sat down on a bench. "I've made the right choice Hinata." He told her with a smile. She held his hand a little tightly as she smiled over to him. He looked at the children playing about them almost as if searching for something before he looked over to Hianta. "You look beautiful." He whispered as he looked at her. She blushed a bright pink as he kissed her cheek.

"What are we going to do now?" she asked in half sigh. "We're fugitives." She muttered.

"I doubt Sasuke will look for us." He said with a laugh as he stood up again and stretched. "How about if we live here?" he asked as she looked over to him. "It's a nice enough village." He went on as he helped her get up from her seat. They walked hand in hand around the park as they pondered their future together. "We could have a nice home maybe a few kids." He joked as Hianta blushed red. He grabbed her by the waist and picked her up as she giggled. He smiled up at her. "Whatever it is you want I'll be happy as long as it with you." He told her as he brought her down and kissed her warmly.

It was euphoria for Hinata as all she could do was smile. She was truly was going to be happy and she couldn't believe it. They walked hand in hand again down the road until they came to big house at the far end of the village. The house was grand looking but old. The gate in front of the house looked like it was falling apart, but what got their attention was a small child huddled up at the gate of the house. She wore a dress that could be assumed at one point was white. She was fragile looking as she hugged herself into a little ball. Her large green eyes cried big wet tears as her face was dirty.

Her pink hair was also dirty as if she had been rolling around in the mud. Something compelled Hinata to walk over to the little girl and knee in front of her.

"What's wrong?" she asked her as the little girl looked up. She must have been no older then six as she sniffed back her tears.

"I got beaten up again." She muttered as big wet tears fell down her face. "They said I was dirty but I clean my dress and hair." She muttered as she kept crying. Hinata placed her hand on the child's head.

"Who are they?" she asked

"The other kids." She muttered. "They pushed me into the mud and told me that's where I belonged because my big bother is a demon." She wailed as Hinata hugged her.

"It's okay." She tried to calm the child down.

"I want my big brother." She wailed as more tears came down her face. Naruto watched in amazement.

"Where is you big brother?" asked Hinata as the child hiccupped a bit.

"I don't know." She cried into Hinata. "He said I had to be a good girl." She wailed. "But I don't want to be a good girl I want my brother!" she cried over and over again.

"It's okay." Hinata whispered as she tried to calm the child down. "Where do you live?" she asked her as the girl tried to answer only her voice didn't come out right so she pointed to the house behind her. Hinata lifted the little girl as Naruto opened the gate of the house. They walked up the path to the house and knocked on the door as the child kept crying. No one answered the door as Naruto tried once more.

"No one lives with me." The little girl muttered as Hianta looked down at the girl in her arms. "Big brother gave me this house but I live alone." She hiccupped again. Hinata looked over to Naruto who opened the door the house. It was dark inside the home and it appeared that only one room in the house was used. It had all matter of small things for the little girl in Hinata's arms. This Little girl has been living alone for some time. How did she get food to eat? She looked rather fragile in Hinata's arms. The house looked like it had everything for a family to live in it just didn't have a family. Hinata placed the child down as she looked at the floor. Standing up now they could see a red pendent that looked like a drop of blood strung around her neck by a leather cord.

Naruto looked over to Hianta who looked at the little girl with kindness. There was sadness in her eyes as she looked at the child like she knew that it felt like to be in her place. Naruto sighed out loudly as he kneel down to the child's eyes level. He smiled at her as she blushed pink as she looked at Naruto.

"My name is Naruto." He told her as he put his hand out to the little girl who took it. He kissed her little hand and the girl blushed even more. "It's an honor to meet such a sweet princess." He told her as the little girl smiled for the first time. "This is my wife Hinata." He said as he pointed at Hinata who this time turned red at the mention about being his wife. " And you princess what shall we call you?" he asked as the little girl grabbed onto Hinata's leg and hide her blush behind her dress but she still looked at Naruto with smile.

"My name is Sakura."
