One Sided Love?

Chapter 10

Naruto saw the demon fox charging straight towards him. "So it looks like this is the end, I was only able to do this much in the end." He closed his eyes waiting for the tearing pain that was sure to come.

"Shugo Hakke Rokujyuu Yonshou!" (Guardian of Eight Divination Seals: sixty-four Strikes)

At the sound of this Naruto's eyes sprung open. "Hinata!"

"J-just let me do this one thing for you, Naruto-kun"

"Ok, but I am going to help out as well! Taju Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!"

The demon fox reared back from Hinata. "What do you think you are doing? This is a fight between me and that brat, don't make me kill you as well!"

"Y-you might be right nine tails, but this person you are trying to kill is someone special to me, and I will not allow anyone to hurt him!"

"H-Hinata… Alright let's get this done with! Hey demon fox, want to see true power?"

"Bring it brat, I will crush you with a simple flick of my tail."

The Naruto clones all charged up a Rasengan again.

"Not this again, you just did it." The Kyuubi was now clearly agitated.

"Yeah, I might have, but this time I won't be defeated so easily."

"You annoy me brat!" The Kyuubi swung its tails chaotically towards Naruto's clones.

"Taju Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Came the now calmer voice of Hinata "Shugo hakke Rokujyuu Yonshou!"

The tails of the Kyuubi never made contact with any of the clones as Hinata made it in time to protect each one.

"I said that you won't harm him!"

The Kyuubi roared in anger. "Fine I will kill you too!"

"Now!" Naruto yelled.

The clones of both young gennins went running straight towards the demon fox. The tails of the nine tails fox went this time towards the clones of Hinata.

"Oh no you don't! Rasengan!" The clones jumped in front of the Hinata clones and used the Rasengan to knock the blow away, but where blown flying because of the blast.

The tails turned once more towards the Hinata clones, they swung in full force dancing chaotically. Hinata being prepared for this starting weaving in and out of the tails lashes missing their timing only a few times resulting in the loss of those clones. "Jyuuken!"

A loud roaring laughter erupted from the Kyuubi. "Did you think such a weak attack would work on me?"

"No! But this will!" Came the voice of Naruto. "U!" A clone kicked the Kyuubi from just underneath his head area. "ZU!" another two clones jumped from underneath and uppercutted. "MA!" two of the other clones launched one of them straight upwards head first, that clone making a solid impact with its head causing it to be destroyed. "KI!" The two clones that just launched the last one jumped with all their power straight towards the Kyuubi's head with both feet.

The surprising part happened. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Hinata yelled. Two clones appeared which used up so much strength to launch Hinata that they were destroyed. "JYUUKEN!"

Then just as the nine tails thought it was over Naruto came in from above. "RASENGAN RENDAN!" The combined effect from the Jyuuken and the Rasengan together caused the painful truth to go straight through the nine tails.

"I-I can't beat these two. What is up with their power, they are two measly Gennins!" "Wait!"

"What do you mean wait?" Asked a now heavily breathing Naruto.

"I must know, how can a brat like you be so strong? Even without my power!"

Naruto simply smiled. "As you have been with me this whole time, you should know. I am going to become the next Hokage, nothing can stop me!"

"I-Its impossible still for you to be that powerful!"

Naruto thought for a moment. "I know, it is like with Lee."

"I do not understand brat!"

"I have someone important I need to protect, and when that person is smiling I feel happy, and when that person is hurt…I hurt the person who hurt her!"

"Her? C-could he mean me?"

"I see, well young brat. It seems that your power is too much for me when you two are together. Just watch your back from now on, you may have beaten me, but I have not lost!" The demon fox headed towards the gate again. "I don't suppose that you know how to seal me again do you?" It asked with a wide grin.

"I wont need to, I do not wish to seal you anymore. I want to use your power, and in exchange you will not be sealed up anymore."

"Why do you not wish to seal me? I have always given you power anyways, why chose to let me run loose inside of you? I do not understand."

"It is because of that seal that I have been having trouble with chakra control isn't it? I overheard Jiraiya saying that."

"Yes, it is true that the seal stops your control immensely, but who is to say that I don't just kill you myself when you are weakened in battle?"

"You of all people should now this, whether the seal is there or not, if I die so do you!"

"Damn brat! What makes you think I am stuck here without the seal?"

"Because if you could get out, you would have done so already, it seems this wasn't the only seal."

The nine tails snarled angrily towards Naruto.

Hinata stepped forward. "W-why can't you two just get along? Why must you two fight all the time, you are both in the same body, shouldn't you just get used to it and get over this hatred of each other?"

"Foolish girl, why do you go to such ends just to help out this brat, and I will not believe that you are just helping out a friend. This is too much for just helping."

Hinata looked away for a moment, then turned back towards the nine tails. "I-Its because I must protect the one I love!"

Naruto turned towards her with shock filled eyes. "H-Hinata, is this true?"

Hinata now blushing turned towards Naruto. "Y-yes it is true, I have always been watching you, always been in love with you, I-I just didn't know how to tell you."

Naruto walked over towards Hinata, once he was standing right in front of her, her laid his hand on her cheek. "I too have found out just how much in love with you I have been."

The nine tails snarls again. "Well isn't this just cute, the two love birds finally figure it out do they! You two make me sick."

Naruto turned towards the nine tails. "Never insult Hinata again!"

"Oh, I am sorry…did I say sick, I meant you two make me vomit, and her most of all!"

"I warned you! Let's go Hinata we will teach him exactly what we can do!"

The both of them raised there hands up to face level. "Taju Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" The clone were circling the nine tails once more.

"Let's go!" The clones charged straight towards the nine tails who lashed it's tails out in a chaotic pattern, but every time a tail would get close to one of Hinata's clones Naruto's deflected it away with a one handed Rasengan. "I will not let you harm her!"

The next thing the nine tails knew he had hundreds of clones smacking right into him, some with a swirling chaotic chakra mass and the others with a charka filled palm thrust. The nine tails screamed in pain once again. "AGH! Fine, you may have won this fight, but the battle is not over yet!"

The area got dark once again, as Naruto's eyes got heavier and heavier.

When he finally opened his eyes, he saw Hinata sleeping in her futon next to his. He smiled. "It must have been a dream." But when he looked down on his stomach he thought. "I wonder." He started molding some chakra, and sure enough, the seal showed up, but something was different about it, and he too felt different, that was when he heard the nine tails voice.

"For making it this far, I will grant you more power than you could ever imagine, master."

Naruto hearing this wondered why he used the word master, but when he saw Hinata laying over there all alone and shivering because they had no fire, he moved his futon closer and wrapped his arms around her and fell asleep.

So what is this, why would the nine tails call Naruto master…and what does he mean by more power than Naruto could imagine, and was this all a dream, it seems real…but could Hinata have really said what she said, I guess you will have to wait and see
