Ok, here's another chapter, and I'm going to call it… chapter 10!

So, I don't own Naruto. Really wish I did, but I don't, so I'll cry over it and then get over it too, all in one night.

Anyways, I'm going on with the chapter now.

RECAP:

"NARUTO, WHY IS THIS GIRL HERE? WAS THIS YOUR IDEA? IF IT WAS, I'LL KILL YOU."Kyuubi screamed at Naruto, in a fit of rage. She seriously looked like she would.

Hinata screamed and fell over. She was covered in sewerage water.

"Oh, pipe down. She's a friend, besides, you're the one who said that could trust her… right?" Naruto said with his cheeky grin on his face.

"Please kit, I don't get to be scary anymore, well, not with anyone who takes me seriously. You just laugh at me." Kyuubi said, also smiling.

"Hinata, come here." Said Naruto, leaning against the bars of the cage, one his hands were threw the bars and he was stroking Kyuubi's head, who had now shrunk to the size of a German Shepard.

Hinata slowly got up and walked over to them. No body could say that she wasn't scared nervous, excited, yes, Hinata was excited. It was the thrill of being in danger… she couldn't deny that. When she made to the bar with Naruto, he introduced them.

"Hinata, this is Kyuubi, Kyuubi, this is Hinata." He said… coolly.

"Hi," Hinata said shyly. She really didn't know how to react to this.

"Hello, Hinata. So your going to make my kit's life better?" Kyuubi asked with a slick grin.

"I'm going to try. But I can't promise anything." She said truthfully.

"Oh, but you already have. Even if it is just a little. But tell me, how is your family going to react?" Kyuubi asked Hinata, sorrow evident in her eyes.

"They won't care; I am no longer apart of the Hyuuga clan. I was disowned, along with my cousin, Neji." Hinata told Kyuubi.

"Hmmm, I see. Just remember one thing; my kit was disowned by the entire village. That is a pain he should have had to experience. No body should. So, if he can make it, you sure can, because you are just as strong as him."Kyuubi said, not expecting anything else from the Hyuuga, but Hinata continued the conversation anyway.

"But Naruto is so much stronger then I. he has done things I could never do. He beat Neji, and I could not. I still can not. How am I as strong as him? I'm not even in the same league." She said rather quickly.

"Kyuubi's not talking physically, Hinata. There's nothing physical about being disowned by people who should care about you. It's emotional and psychological. She's saying your mind is strong." Naruto told her, speaking for the first time since he introduce them. Then he continued in a 'matter-of-fact' tone. "Oh, and, yes you are physically strong Hinata. One of my old Sensei's told me that me that the only reason I am so strong is because I have in-human chakra, which is kinda true. And he was right, even if I only had the perve for about half a day. You know, that's when I met Jiraiya and demanded he teach me. And he did. I found that I like getting my way, and the longer I bugged him, more I got it."

"My kit is right. And when he starts bugging people, there's no shutting him up."Kyuubi said, as if she was speaking a person Naruto had bugged.

That's when Naruto ginned evilly and leaned over to whisper into Hinata's ear, "I bug her all the time for new jutsu's. She gets really cranky with me for it too, but she gives up and teaches them to me. It's really funny." And then he giggled.

"It is not funny, you little rat!" Kyuubi said to him.

"Hey, your not supposed to be listening to my conversations" Naruto said with a pout on his face.

"Then try saying it a little quieter. It's not my fault I have the hearing of a fox!" Kyuubi exclaimed.

"But you are a fox, so why wouldn't you." Naruto said, dumbfounded.

Kyuubi mentally slapped herself. "That's my point Naruto." She said with clenched teeth.

And the three of them continued their conversation.

Meanwhile back in Konoha.

People were ready for the announcement that Tsunade was going to make. Sasuke was there, being very protective of Sakura, as usual these days.

Neji and Tenten were in the crowd too. The recently married couple was waiting for the announcement to be over, so they could go do married people activities together.

"I'm glad you're all here for my announcement." Tsunade said, rather loudly, but not yelling. "It has to do with the next Hokage. Unfortunately, though, he isn't here as he is on a mission… I would like to say that my successor will be someone you all know quiet well. A Mr. Naruto Uzumaki." She finished, only to have a large amount of gasps and "Oh, no's" heard within the crowd.

Tsunade didn't think it would be this bad. Naruto had saved the village time, and time again and this was the thanks he got. What stupid people would pass up a person like Naruto to be Hokage? Needless to say, Tsunade was getting a little angry with them.

Then all of Naruto's friends had stepped in.

Shikamaru, Temari, Sasuke, Sakura, Neji, Tenten, Lee, Gaara, Kiba, Shino, Jiraiya, Kakashi, Iruka, Konoharmaru and his team, (A/N I think that's how you spell it) Anko, Itachi and his team (the) and ibiki all stood up with Tsunade and looked at everyone as if they were dogs.

"How could you people be so quick to judge? Naruto has done more good for this village then all of you combined. You people disgust me." It was Kakashi who spoke this. Everyone then turned on him.

"You know what he has done. He killed Yondaime, and he had a bright future, being our Hokage. He would still be alive now, if it wasn't for that brat." Said a random villager.

"Let me tell you something, Naruto didn't kill anyone, he saved you all as a 2 hour old baby, and you despise him for it."

Then Shikamaru, Temari, Sasuke, Sakura, Neji, Tenten, lee, Kiba, Shino and the Konoharmaru team looked at Kakashi, obviously confused by what he said. Naruto saved everyone when he was two hours old? How could that be? It was insane to think that way. Maybe he was exaggerating.

Tsunade looked at their expressions and sighed. She had to tell them now. Naruto wouldn't mind too much… would he?

"Follow me." She said and everyone on the platform followed her to her office so she could explain everything to them.

After everything was explained to them, they sat there wide-eyed. They had befriended the beast everyone talks about when they are safely with in their homes, so that they will not be punished for speaking ill about this creature.

"Why did he not tell us?" asked Sasuke, in monotone.

"You saw the way people reacted, the people who knew. They hate him. I don't think he wanted that from his friends, surely you understand that much." Said Kakashi.

"Naruto, holds a demon, and didn't tell us because we're his friends? It makes no sense. If he thought of us as friends, then he would have told us." Sakura almost yelled.

Sasuke, you say that Naruto is your best friend, but he still doesn't know the full story of what happened with your clan. Why is that?" asked Jiraiya.

"Because I don't want to talk about it." Sasuke replied, a little anger in his voice, but not much, as he had forgiven his brother and are both currently working on their relationship. But it still hurt think of it.

"Now, can you say it's fair that, you don't talk about things you don't want people to know and Naruto has too?" said ibiki.

"No, but… no it's not" knowing he had just admitted he understood what they we're saying.

"And Sakura, can you say it's fair, that Naruto must tell you everything, even if, you have only just started to like him as a friend and your relationship is still pre-mature?" Iruka had asked her.

"No…" she replied, even if she really didn't want to.

"Can the rest of you sit here and be mad at him for not telling you when you never gave him a chance till recently?" asked Tsunade.

"No" was heard from the rest of the group. They now understood why Naruto didn't tell them. He just wasn't ready to. He was scared of their reaction. Most of them were happy that he wasn't here right now, they had time to come to terms with it, and now they wouldn't freak out when he told them.

Things were looking up.

Well, that was one of my more longer chapters, but still not as long as you'd like it, i know. But I hope your happy and enjoy this chapter. I thought this would do for now. I hope you don't mind. I only stopped because I ran out of material, (I get a lot of my idea's when I sleep, and them I jot them down on paper and when I have enough, them I make a chapter, that's why it takes me so long to update, that and school work… I hate school, not to mention, my dad has been teaching me how to fix a car. I recently learnt how to fix a gear box. It's fun.)

Anyways, see you next chapter.
