It was the morning after the dinner with Kurenai and Tsunade right now was not in a good mood. This was no surprise for her or for anyone that knew her. She was not often in a good mood in the morning. However what did shock her and the people that knew her was the reason behind her bad mood. Usual she was mad that she had too much paper work to do. Naruto taught her the secret of how to beat paper work.

She really loved shadow clones by the way. Usual she was in a bad mood since she could not drink in the morning. After the battle she stopped drinking so that was out. Usual she got mad at Naruto but he had been quite lately and that worried her more but she knew he may be back to his old self soon so that was out. Now the reason for her bad mood was not Naruto nor was it Kurenai no it was Hinata.

Hinata had gotten wind that Naruto had adopted and she did not like it at all. She made it to Tsunade's office and demanded to speak with her. As a clan leader she had the right to do it. Hinata was not alone she had her allies on the council. By allies I mean minions, puppets people that still hated Naruto no matter what.

Tsuande said. "Lady Hinata and various non important council members to what do I owe this interruption." Before they could speak Tsuande said. "Actual I know the reason. You only come in with your puppets when you want to ruin Naruto's life even more. So I am assuming you heard about the adoption. I can't wait to hear your excuse as to why he should not have been allowed to adopt."
Before Hinata says anything Tsuande shouts. "Shizune looks like you won the bet she came today. I lost again." A random council woman asked. The author says random since she is not important. "What bet?" Tsuande said. "I bet Shizune 100 that you lot would come in two days. Shizune bet today. So lost I got rid of my alcohol problem but not my gambling problem. O well. One vice at a time."
Hinata was not excepting this. She was expecting to be ignored or told no. She was not expecting to be laughed at and treated like a joke. This enraged her. She said. "Now listen I demand respect." Tsuande said very calmly but everyone knew she was not. . "I am not a part of your little clan. I do not need to respect you. It must be earned not given. Now say your excuse so I may get back to work."

Hinata said. "He is a demon and he will hurt the child. I am going to us all my political power to get the adoption reversed." Tsuande said. "Well it is a good thing I already saw this coming." She tossed Hinata a scroll and said. "By the way there are many copies of this one. " The scroll said that every kage of all the major villages along with many federal lords all supported the adoption. In other words if Hinata tried anything her clan was sunk.

Tsuande said. "Now that this over please leave unless you have another stupid excuse." Hinata said. "I will just have to use other ways." Tsuande said. "Hinata whatever you are planning I would suggest you stop. If you try and harm his child Naruto will hurt you a thousand times worse." Hinata smirked and said. "My clan will protect me he would not dare attack me."

Tsuande said. "He is like his mother. His mother if you harmed her important people not even Kami herself could stop his mother. I am giving you this warning. Council members remember one think I am in charge you are here to advise not order around. Now get out of my office." Up above Kami was smiling for Tsuande was right about Naruto's mother. Even Kami was scared of Naruto's mother.

Hinata left vowing to kill Naruto and his child. She would have to wait. She wanted Naruto to lower his guard. She knew it would not be easy but she would do it. The branch family use to love her and hope she would be clan leader. However now they feared her and wanted her gone.

The members of the branch family respect Naruto. They had hoped that he would marry Hianta and the two would get rid of the cage bird seal. All that hope was dashed. A branch family member was out on a mission. She had completed it but she had one more thing to do.

She made it to Naruto's home. He was awake but his daughter was asleep. She gets him to open the door and she says. "I must be quick. Hinata has discovered that you adopted a child. She plans on killing your child. I do not know when." Naruto asked. "Why are you telling me this? If she finds out she will kill you and any one else she feels like."

The woman said. "I know but it is what we as the branch family want to do. Everyone of us hoped and prayed that you and Hinata would marry. We hoped and prayed that the seal would be removed from us forever. Now it is a dead dream. That was why Neji died with a smile on his face. He felt that the rest of us would be free."

Naruto said. "It will still happen. I promised and I never go back on my word. I will find away so that Neji would not have died in vain." The woman said. "I know and I hope to live to see that day." With that the woman is gone. Naruto says. "Midnight do we have any seal masters in the clan."

Midnight said. "Yes we do but removing the seals will only cause war." Naruto said. "Good point ok then please send some foxes to watch out for that person. Stop Hinata from killing her if you can and anyone else. Also keep tabs on Hinata." Midnight said. "I will not allow her to harm Amber." Naruto said. "I know but I don't trust her. I am scared of what she might do."
