Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.

AN: Ok, I put more brainpower and thought into this chapter that I had (and it still isn't exactly like I thought I would be, but still good.) A major event happens and the exams start next chapter! The fights in this chapter is how I think Ninja battles should be, quick. First person gets an advantage uses it to win.

Dragon Man 180: He's strong, he's dedicated to being a Ninja, but he doesn't care too much. Sakura is going to like someone else.

DarkSyde24: Not telling! But really don't overestimate Naruto's reason for going out with her. Besides after this chapter respect will be lost or gained for other people, depends on you.

"Talking"

'Thinking'

Chapter 10: Choice of Ruin

Missions, jobs that shinobi do in order to bring in profit for their village whether it be protecting or killing. There are many other types of missions as well, such as the one Naruto and his team of Gennin is heading to. After much protest and arguing about its unfairness from all three girls, they accepted the mission Naruto likes to call 'Ruining'. Truthfully, it is unfair, and he definitely could understand why the girls did not want this mission, that's why he requested it.

The mission is to help a rich man cheat his way out of giving his wife half of his fortune when he divorces her. There are only two ways that can happen according to the laws of the fire country, one she divorces him, or he has proof of her committing adultery. Both of which they have been informed she would never do.

Since they were heading in the same direction, Kakashi and his team of "elite" Gennin will be walking with them part of the way, they were on a mission to help a bridge builder.

As they left the gate Inuzuka Kiba, quite happy to be in company with females for change decided to start a conversation with Ino, since Sakura was eyeing Sasuke and Hinata doesn't talk much. "Hey Ino, you should join our team and have Sasuke join yours. Damn bastard acts all high and mighty even though he loses to Shino 3 out of 5 spars. Besides we could use a pretty girl on the team."

Ino just looked at him with a slightly surprised look on her face before she replied. "Thanks for the complement but I don't think my boyfriend would be too happy if I left his team."

Two people now had a completely surprised look on their face. First was Kiba who thought she would be a Sasuke fan till death. Second person was Hinata who definitely did not see that coming. She looked to him to see him walking, pretty much ignoring everyone behind him. That is until Ino walked to his side and locked her arm around his.

"I heard from my mother that something happened with the Hyuuga and now Hinata lives with him. You're alright with another girl living with your boyfriend? Akamaru we have to double our training; I need to be a Jounin quickly." Said Kiba.

"Not everybody is perverted like you Kiba. I'd hate for someone like Hinata to have to live alone with you!" yelled Sakura.

Right after then Sasuke said something but only Kiba, Kakashi, and Naruto heard him. "They must be weak if there waiting their time like that."

Naruto turned to Kakashi and said. "The old man should hurry up and make it public knowledge because I'm getting tired of uniformed Gennin accusing me of being weak, especially Gennin who are proud of a worthless rookie of the year title. You know he's still using that Iwa excuse, let them try, it would only decrease their numbers."

Kakashi, not really wanting to get into this just grunted, he wished Sasuke just shut up and not push Naruto as that would not end well. That wish was not granted.

"My name is Uchiha Sasuke, what's yours?" Truth is Sasuke kind of wanted to fight him, to see how strong he was.

"Uzumaki Naruto" was the reply he received.

"Uzumaki? Never head of an Uzumaki clan or family, they must be wea" before he could finish, Naruto appeared in front of him and said "Finish that word and you will regret it."

Naruto then turned around and went back up to the front with Ino. 'I'm going to make sure whichever one of my student's fights him at least breaks an arm.' He thought to himself.

They had been traveling in without much talking for about two hours before Naruto noticed a puddle in the middle of the dry dirt road. 'I wonder if they're after me, Kakashi, or the drunk he's protecting.' He thought.

After both teams passed the puddle two figures rose from it and wrapped a chain like weapon around Kakashi and seemingly ripped him to shreds. The two Kiri missing Nins dashed towards Tazuna but before they got halfway to the man they collapsed on the ground, a few seconds later you could see a large amount of insects crawl from them.

Kakashi then appeared looking quite proud. Sasuke turned to look at Naruto with a smirk on his face and his Sharingan, which had all three tomoe and said "We were told about your bet, there is no way you team will win, you might as well give up."

"The Uchiha is not the only clan with a Doujutsu so don't get cocky. We still have a few moths so you better train hard if you want to even have a chance at beating my team. This is where we split up, Kakashi I suggest you return to Konoha and leave the lying old man to defend himself. Ino, Sakura, Hinata follow me, were traveling in the trees from on." Said Naruto.

After 30 minutes of running Naruto stopped and jumped to the ground. When they asked why he stopped he just pulled out a scroll and tossed it to Sakura. "Those are the instructions to a Genjutsu. It's a simple one that's designed to be used on people who don't use chakra. Once you place a person under it, you can pretty much order them to do what you wish, it's simple so I'm going to give you an hour to learn it, and we're going to need it for this mission." He said.

Naruto then jumped to a tree branch, sat down and leaned his back on the trunk of the tree. The branch was actually large enough for Naruto to sleep with worrying about it breaking or him falling. Ino jumped up to the same branch he was on and sat next to him, she used chakra to stick to the small area on the side of him. Naruto noticed how she had to use chakra to stay in the small area next to him so he put his arm around her waist, picked her up a little and sat her between his legs with her back to his chest.

When Hinata noticed the position they were in there was no doubt in her mind that the two were a couple. It was just a few things she wanted to know. When did this happen, why did no one tell her, didn't Ino like Sasuke, when did Naruto start liking Ino? Well best chance she had of getting answers was to ask Sakura, so she did.

"Sakura, when did that happen?" Hinata asked while pointing at the two.

"Ah, that… It was while we were over his house, you had passed out. We had stayed and talked and then out of the blue she just asked him to go out with him, he accepted." Told the pink haired girl.

"I though Ino like Sasuke, when did she start to like sensei?" She asked.

"Truthfully, I don't think she even likes him. I think she's just going out with him because he's going to be Hokage. She did ask him right after he told us, and every time I ask her she never gives me a straight answer." Told Sakura. That gave Hinata all the information that she needed.

About 45 minutes later Sakura informed Naruto that she now knew the Jutsu. He then jumped to the ground and said "We are close to the city the mission is in so we're going to be walking in disguise from now on; we don't want anyone to even know Shinobi are even in the city." He then used Henge to make himself to an older version of himself without the whisker marks and with civilian clothes. "Ino, make yourself look older, you're going to be disguised as my wife. Hinata an Sakura, you can either make yourselves look like a second couple or our kids." He said.

Neither girls wanted to have to possibly act like a couple so they made themselves look like an 8(Hinata) and 10(Sakura) year old girls. Both had blonde hair and blue eyes to make them look as if they were children of the two. After a few moments they started to walk towards the city.

It was only a half hour before they arrived in the city. First thing they had to do was find a hotel to stay in and that was not hard. After finding a good inn Naruto paid for 2 rooms. All three girls followed him into the first room so that he could give them their orders.

"The targets name is Kiyshi Amaya, age 35, and here is an image of her." He said before passing around a few images of the woman. "Tomorrow you three will observe her without being seen and the formulate a plan. The next day Kiyshi Taro will come home at 12:14, hours early with a friend. At that time the target must be in bed with another man, doesn't matter who and you probably won't even have to use the Jutsu on him but it's a good idea to do so anyways. Once that's done the mission is over. But for the rest of today, we stay in our rooms." He explained.

Naruto then took out a few scrolls and handed them to the girls. Hinata noticed hers was a Juken scroll 'How did he get this?' she thought.

Hours later when it was time to sleep they noticed it was 2 rooms, 4 beds. That shouldn't be a problem but that also meant one of them had to sleep in the room with him. When they asked him about that he gave his ninja mode reply "Seriously it's not like you have to sleep in a bed with me."

They knew that he would say something like that so Ino said she would sleep in the same room as him. Hinata was a little angry at herself for not quickly trying to take the spot so she along with Sakura put there Henge on and went to their room which was next door.

"Ino, don't try anything perverted while I'm sleep." said Naruto making Ino's jaw drop.

"That's my line, besides if I did you wouldn't complain." She replied.

"You're right I wouldn't so feel free to sleep over here with me if you wish." He said.

"Whatever, I'm fine where I am." Was her reply.

Even though she said that, an hour later she did go over to his bed where they talked (and touched a little) for about an hour before she went back to her own bed and went to sleep. Fifteen minutes later a girl in the next room stopped spying on the two and went to sleep herself.

The next day and a half was rather simple. Follow the woman around, not that she left the house more than once. Once it was time to complete the mission they used the Genjutsu from outside her window, when she was directed outside she walked until she found man that Sakura thought was acceptable. Sakura then used the Genjutsu on him and the two walked back to her home where they were later found in bed by her husband and his friend.

That was the simple, official part of the mission. Things got complicated when Naruto and his team spotted a Kumo Jounin and 3 Gennin. They Kumo team didn't look as if they were causing problems but that was not Naruto's concern. Kumo shinobi were simply not allowed to be in Fire Country, it is their duty as Konoha shinobi to get rid of them. So they followed them.

The Kumo Jounin noticed they were being followed so he led them to an open field outside of the city. Once they were in the open Naruto and his team dropped their disguise and the Kumo Jounin moaned in annoyance.

"We don't want any trouble we're here for a C-rank mission that is no treat to Konoha or its shinobi." The Kumo Jounin said.

"It does not matter why you are here or what you plan to do while you are here. The only things that matters are: you are here and you should not be here." The Konoha Jounin said.

All six students tensed even more than they knew that this will probably lead to a fight. All things went to hell when Naruto said "Because they are enemy ninja, have no mercy for them. They should not be here but because they are here they are not allowed to leave" to his team.

Naruto then pulled out a kunai and charged the Jounin. Once he was halfway to him he threw the kunai at him and made 50 Kage Bunshin while the Kumo nin (name: Ryoma) blocked the knife.

Ryoma jumped to the left to dodge what looks like Naruto's stretched arm which is holding a kunai. He then had to jump in the air over it when it turned towards him. While in the air he tossed a few shuriken into the arm and it then faded from his sight 'Genjutsu' he thought.

While he was in the air Naruto performed KatonGōkakyū no Jutsu and sent a large fireball towards the man. Naruto found that I didn't work when his group of clones started to disappear from the Kumo Jounin Taijutsu, but that was part of the plan.

Ryoma had quickly gotten rid of about 20 clones and was happy with his progress on them, he had saved his chakra and Naruto had made a lot of clones and did a large fire jutsu. His musing stopped when he punched a clone in the head and noticed it was way too hard and it made an odd clicking noise. When he looked back towards it he had to grab 3 needles from going further than a half inch into his neck. Even though they didn't get far, they got further than they should have and he could feel himself slowing down from the poison.

Naruto released his clones, and pulled his basic puppet to his side. "You should give up. Those senbon needles are coated with a strong poison, you have at most 30 minutes to live. Besides, you don't have students anymore."

Ryoma then pulled out a short sword that crackled with lightning and dash towards Naruto. Naruto leaned his head back so that he was looking directly in the air. Right before the sword pierced him he opened his mouth really wide and something jumped out of it, and then the Naruto that was stabbed exploded ending the fight.

The real Naruto fell from the sky and looked to his where his team was. Sakura was leaning over throwing up, Ino was sitting with her sword stuck into the ground, and Hinata was standing but looking to the ground.

With The Girls

After Naruto ran forward Sakura started on a jutsu, a second later she performed KatonHōsenka no Jutsu. The Kumo students dodged the fire balls rather easily. The Kumo Nin who happened to be all boys ran toward the girls. The first made the mistake of attacking Sakura with Taijutsu. When he was close enough she activated the seals on her body and performed Joushou Kaijin no Jutsu (Rising Embers), he lasted five seconds. The seals send chakra to the ground and superheat it and cause the heated dirt to rise into the air burning everything in the area, except Sakura. She escapes being burned because of a layer of her chakra coating her entire body and cloths.

The second that attacked had two daggers so Ino used her sword to block his attack. He then jumped back and used nin-wire, connected one of his daggers to make a wide swing at her. She jumped over the attack, while in the air he threw his other dagger at her. She then used Tei Sochi (Air Step: creates a platform of air under one foot that last for ¼ of a second. Person can use the platform to block objects or jump) to flip to a ninety degree angle, she then used Tei Sochi again but this time she use all the speed she could. The results were her speeding towards the boy and sword going through his chest.

The last one never got a chance to attack, Hinata wrapped him in chakra strings and the metal balls impacted on both of his temples causing him to lose conciseness. She then sent a bust of chakra down the strings which turned into electricity causing him to lose his life.

Sakura, seeing the chard state of her opponent threw up at the sight. Ino removed her sword and then stabbed in the ground and sat down. Hinata retrieved the balls with her chakra strings and just stood there.

"You tree go back to the Hotel and get your things, we're going back to Konoha." Naruto said.

Konoha (Naruto's House, 10pm)

Ino and Sakura went straight home after their briefing, more than likely to talk to their parents about their first kills. Those kills could make or break them as shinobi, those kills are the true reason he attacked the Kumo Nins. He really didn't want to send to into the Chuunin exams in a few moths without any combat experience.

He was sitting on his sofa reading a scroll when Hinata came out of her room where she had been since they got back and stood in front of him. He put his scroll down and was about to ask her what she wanted when she wrapped him in chakra string. She didn't have her gloves on so he wasn't worrying about her electrocuting him, he could also easily escape but he wanted to know what she was doing.

He got his answer when she crawled onto his lap and kissed him. It wasn't like the quick pecks that Ino gave him, this was a full kiss with her tong invading his mouth. He wasn't stopping her so she kept going. It was about two minutes before she stopped and looked at him, probably to see his reaction. What she saw was a raised eyebrow.

"You know I'm going out with Ino right? It's usually not a good idea to kiss your friends boyfriend." He said.

"Yes I know you two are going out but I won't accept it. Ino is a teammate, not a friend. She used to always say she liked Sasuke but then she suddenly wants to go out with you, I don't trust her." She said.

"I heard you and Sakura when you were talking. That she might be going out with me because I will be Hokage. I can't really get mad at her for that though, I'm only going out with her because she asked." He said.

"Then go out with me instead." She said while leaning her head on his shoulder.

She released the chakra strings and Naruto rubbed the back of her head. They were sitting quietly for about 5 minutes. He could tell from the water on his shoulder that she was crying. "Breaking up with her and then going out with you, Hinata something like that would destroy the team." He said. He really didn't know what to do in a situation like this. Not breaking up with Ino could destroy the team, but he doubted Hinata would react the way he suspected Ino would. With what she's doing he would probably stop trying to predict Hinata's actions though, especially with her next words.

"Then don't break up with her, you don't even have to tell anyone but I still want you to be with me." She said before kissing him again, the fact that he was kissing her back was enough to let her know he accepted.

Five minutes later she stood up, when she was about to go back to her room Naruto spoke. "You know, you're really an odd Hyuuga."

After a few seconds she replied. "I'm not a Hyuuga anymore, just Hinata. They don't want me and I don't want them."

"Even if you say that, people are still going to call you a Hyuuga when they see your eyes." He said.

"Then I will have to make sure no one see's them." She said.

"Well if you need some help with you 'change' let me know and I'll be glad to help." He said before she walked into her room. The moment she lied down on the bed she fainted.

'What the hell did I get myself into? I just got a girlfriend a few days ago and I'm already cheating on her. With a girl everyone is going to suspect me of cheating even if I weren't. I swear if Sakura ask me to go out with her I'm going to feed her to Kyuubi.' He thought.
