ANYWAY… THE STORY!

** N-A-R-U-H-I-N-A **

Hinata and Naruto were finally starting to get used to the reading mind thing after a week. They had found it difficult because someone would start talking aloud while they were in the middle of a mind-conversation. They also found out that they could block their thoughts if they wanted to, which was good when they were doing their separate training. But when the couple where training together, it was much easier if they talked to each other through their minds.

At the moment, Naruto was practicing a fox summoning technique from inside one of the scrolls while Hinata was watching him from underneath a tree.

"Summoning Jutsu!" Naruto called out after a number of hand signs, a poof of smoke appearing where his hand hit the ground.

He quickly withdrew his hand and took a step back, hoping for something this time. The last four times he had tried using this jutsu, absolutely nothing had happened. A huge grin escaped his face when he saw a large dog-sized fox standing in front of him.

Hinata was shocked. This fox was one of the cutest things she'd ever seen. he had smooth golden-orange fur with white patches on the end of his tail and under his chin. And he had two large bronze eyes looking around with excitement.

"Aww… I was hoping I'd get to fight. It's been boring lately." The fox sighed, finally taking note of Naruto standing there, "Oh, I haven't seen you before. Are you a new summoner?" He asked.

"Yepp, that's me. Naruto Uzumaki! What's your name?" Naruto said enthusiastically.

"I am Keko. One of the be-" He cut himself off and started sniffing in the air. Hinata was now at Naruto's side, watching the fox with fascination.

"You don't smell normal. You smell like one of us. And so does she." Keko said, gesturing to Hinata with his nose, "She must be your mate, correct?"

"Yeah. That's her. And I think we smell different because we have demon fox chakra inside us." Naruto explained.

"Kyuubi?" Keko asked, wide eyes.

"He's inside of me. Do you know him?"

Keko bowed to Naruto then, "He was our boss fox. He was our leader and our master. Now we will listen to you as well."

"No need to bow, Keko-san. All we want for you is to help us when needed. We don't own you we only want you to help." Hinata said calmingly and soothingly.

"That is the cutest thing I have ever seen! I wanna hug him right now! I wonder how soft is he?" Hinata wondered, on the outside keeping a calm face.

Naruto chuckled, "Hey Keko. Is it okay if she pats you? She thinks you're cute."

Keko let out a large foxy grin, "Of course, Naruto-san." He said and walked over to Hinata happily.

Naruto then sat down with his back against a tree. He was watching the gorgeous girl in his lap who was patting the purring Keko gently, leaning against his chest.

"What is your name, miss?" Keko asked curiously, stopping his purrs for a moment.

"I am Hinata Hyuuga." She smiled back at Keko and continued to pat him.

"Did you sign the fox summoning scroll too? We would like to have another master like yourself and Naruto-san." Keko started purring again.

"Well, I haven't signed it yet. But I have finished my medical training. What do you think, Naruto-kun. I know father would be pissed, but who gives a shit about him anymore?" She wondered.

"Well, I think you should do it. You seem to find it easy to tame a fox." He smirked.

She giggled slightly, "Yeah, I sure have tamed my fox haven't I?" she leaned back and gave him a peck on the bottom of his chin.

"Okay, let's do it. Sorry Keko. You can stay if you want but we're just going to get Hina-chan to sign the scroll and she may be able to summon you." Naruto said.

"She won't be able to summon me, Naruto-san. We only have one fox to each master. Which I don't quite understand because I have a master, maybe he died. Hopefully he died. I didn't like him." Keko said.

"Was he Kinoshi-teme by any chance?" Naruto wondered.

"Yeah, that's the guy. You know him?"

"Yepp. I was the one who killed him. Stupid bastard. So is that why you've got me now?" Naruto wondered.

"I think so. Every Kitsune or vixen have their own masters. One for each of us. I think that when your old master dies, the next person to sign the summoning contract becomes your new master." Keko guessed.

"Sounds pretty cool. Hina-chan, sign the scroll." Naruto smiled widely, lifting the girl up from on his lap and stood up so he could take the scroll out of his pocket.

Hinata smiled before biting her thumb, drawing blood, so she could sign the summoning contract.

"The hand signs are, fox, rabbit, boar, Kitsune, ox, you got that?" Naruto explained.

Hinata nodded, making the hand signs Naruto had instructed, and after a few tries, a large poof of smoke appeared.

Once the smoke cleared a large fox, about the same size as Keko appeared. This was obviously a vixen by the calm, soothing look in the vixen's azure eyes. She had pure white fur, apart from the black on the tip of her tail and on her paws.

"Miya!" Keko called out to the vixen, running up to her and playfully nudging her with his nose.

"Hey, Keko. Why am I here? Do I finally get a master?" Miya looked around expectantly, eyes finally locking with lavender ones.

"Hello, Miya-san. I am Hinata Hyuuga, your master." Hinata smiled at the vixen.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Hinata-san." Miya said in her calming voice.

"Guess what?" Keko said excitedly, "Our masters both have Kyuubi chakra in them!"

Miya looked up at the two confusedly, "Really? I guess we are lucky then. Our masters must be strong. Is that one yours?" Miya asked, gesturing to Naruto.

"Yepp. And your master is his mate." Keko smiled his foxy grin at her before standing dutifully beside Naruto.

Miya smiled kindly at Naruto before walking over to Hinata, sitting down next to the girl, "I think you have chosen well, Hinata-san. He seems very strong."

Hinata blushed at that comment, "Yeah, I guess he is. That is Naruto Uzumaki. And we'll probably be working a lot together so you probably should get used to him."

"Wow, now I wanna know what you guys can do!" Naruto said expectantly.

Keko smiled at his master, eager to show off his skills, "Well, each of us Kitsune have a nature. My nature is sand. And Miya's is snow."

Miya nodded, "There are also leaf, shadow and light natures. There once was fire. But that was from the Kyuubi and is how he became our boss; he was the only Kitsune who had that nature, which he got from his demon chakra."

"Do you want to have a small spar? Me and Keko against yourself and Hina-chan?" Naruto asked hopefully.

"Yes, I believe that would be the best way for Keko and myself to show you the true extent of our powers." Miya smiled, taking a stance next to Hinata who had already dropped into her jyuken stance.

Naruto smirked when he felt Hinata block her thoughts from him. They had learned to do this after about a day of reading each other's minds. They could block their thoughts from each other, but if you did, you couldn't hear their thoughts either. Naruto then dropped into stance, with Keko standing dutifully next to him.

"Let's do this!" Naruto smiled, charging towards Hinata and Miya.

Keko was the first to make a move, he yelled out, "Sand nature: Sandstorm!" and he started spinning his tail, a sandstorm literally appearing out of nowhere and whipping against Hinata and Miya.

Miya quickly began spinning her tail as well, "Snow nature: Ice cube!" and an ice box appeared around Hinata and Miya, keeping them safe from the deadly sandstorm outside.

Naruto had an idea, wondering if it would work, he quickly made hand signs, "Lightning style: Power surge!" He sent the surge towards the ice box making the electricity flow all over the cube. Miya and Hinata stayed away from the electricity powered edges and waited as the cube started to crack.

"Fire style: inferno fountain!" Hinata called, melting the rest of the ice and sending fire balls towards Keko and Miya.

"Sand nature: Mud wall!" Keko called out quickly and a wall of sand appeared from the ground, protecting him and Naruto from the fire.

"Snow nature: Snow ball!" Miya called, a giant snowball headed straight for the mud wall. Smashing straight through it.

"Wind style: hurricane!"

"Water style: Tsunami!"

"Sand nature: Sand storm!"

"Snow nature: Blizzard!"

The four attacks hit each other head on, concluding in a massive explosion. No-one had time to block or protect themselves, all flying into the trees opposite each other, the fierce winds still present after the blast.

Sitting up, Hinata finally noticed the sight of the battlefield. It was beautiful. The grass was frozen solid and there were small bits of ice and sand frozen on them. Everything seemed to sparkle in the wind and it was a gorgeous sight to see.

"That was awesome!" Naruto smiled his famous grin, panting as he stood up. That last move really did a number on him.

"I'm glad you liked it, but I think it's about time for Keko and I to leave. We need to replenish our chakra. Goodbye, Hinata-san." Miya smiled gently to Naruto and Hinata before disappearing in a poof of smoke.

Keko quickly followed her example, "Okay, well, I better go too. Catch you later guys! Naruto, Hinata!"

Then just Naruto and Hinata quickly reached each other, standing on the outside of the training area, both panting heavily, "Man, I stink! I need a shower." Naruto decided suddenly.

"Lovely," Hinata sighed, she really needed to know that, "But too bad, I am so having a shower first when we get back!" She laughed.

"You know, princess, we could always have one together and not have this argument." Naruto teased.

"Naruto!" Hinata scolded with a small laugh at his joke. "You pervert!" She teased back.

"Hey I'm not a pervert! Plus, I've been around Ero-sennin that long it's a surprise I'm not worse!" Naruto defended himself.

"Well, it doesn't matter anyway, because I'm having a shower!" Hinata decided, pouncing up onto her feet gracefully. Quickly turning to poke her tongue out at Naruto before heading towards the house.

Naruto smirked as he watched his girlfriend walk up to the house. She was so adorably hot it wasn't funny and he felt like the luckiest guy in the world to have her as his.
