Sleepless D: I think that I made the last chapter a little dull, but I'll try to make this one a bit better. Peace out.
The sun rieses in the Land of Waves, at Tazuna's house, Hinata feels very warm and comfortable. 'I feel like I'm in heaven.' She says to herself while smiling, she felt some shifting and she becomes confused, she opens her eyes slowly and looks for the source. She looks down and sees Naruto snuggling and holding her with his arms and legs like a baby monkey with its mother; he smiles in his sleep and snuggles deeper, that's when she notices that he's less clothed then he was when he went to bed. (Don't worry, he still has boxers on.)
Hinata was slowly processing this. 'Naruto, close, holding me, smiling.' It continues as she went redder and redder with each thought, getting worse as Naruto breathes deeply and nibbles her shoulder, she goes overboard and screams in shock.
Several things happen; Naruto wakes up and covers his ears in pain, wondering where he was and if they were under attack quickly stands up, looking around for the attacker. Kakashi arose quickly, looking for any attack and cringing in pain because of it, while Sasuke just shot up and threw a Kunai towards a sound of someone moving, that someone however was Naruto. Within a second, a scream of pain and horror, having hit him in a particularly nasty place, he screams and spins around, hlding onto his arse. Hinata sees this and that the kunai had nearly hit the dead centre of his arse, she blushes harder and faints.
"Who the hell stabbed my arse?" Naruto yells in pain.
Kakashi seeing that there was no enemy present, looks at Naruto and couldn't help but chuckle at Naruto's predicament. "I believe Sasuke did that, and he literally did the meaning of tearing you a new one." He laughs, also making Sasuke smirk at the joke. (It didn't hit the hole just to let you know)
"You're dead!" Naruto yells at Sasuke as he walks towards him while clenching his knuckles, but he accidently trips over Hinata and lands face first, this makes Hinata wake up again, but passes out again when she sees Naruto's arse with the Kunai still in it close to her.
The door swung open. "Who the hell is being so loud?" Tazuna complains.
"That would be Naruto." Kakashi smiles and points to Naruto with his arse in the air and a Kunai.
"...I'll be a little worried about him being a masochist* with that Kunai there." Tazuna says.
"Yes...well, kids today can experiment." Kakashi chuckles.
Naruto got up, looking very enraged. "You're going to get it now Sasuke!" He yells, making Tazuna cringe at the thought.
"That's not going to happen in my house!" Tazuna yells as he grabs Naruto and pulls him away.
"What a very interesting morning this is." Kakashi smiles.

An hour later, within the forest near Tazuna's house, Team 7 is getting ready for their training. "Ok now, I hope we're all ready for training." Kakashi smiles, Sasuke looks like he usually does, Hinata is still red as a tomato from today's events and Naruto was still holding his arse while giving Sasuke evil looks. "Good, now we'll be training to use your chakra properly." Kakashi informs them, gaining confused looks from the three Genin.
"But Kakashi sensei, we know how to use our chakras." Naruto tells him.
"Yes, but you don't know how to use it effectively." Kakashi tells them. "Even if you can release high quantities if it, it may leave the Jutsu very weak or not work at all, so then you'll be wasting energy and that would not make you fight as long."
"Alright...so what do we do?" Sasuke asks, finding it pointless.
"Like I said, you'll be learning how to control it through very hard training." Kakashi tells them with a small smile.
"W-What are w-we going t-to do?" Hinata asks, sounding nervous already.
"Tree climbing." Kakashi tells them.
Everyone was a little confused at this. "Tree climbing?" Naruto asks.
"Yes, you'll be climbing trees without your hands." He says, starting walking towards a tree. "Like so." He says and starts walking up a tree, gaining interested and surprised looks from everyone.
"I didn't know you could do that! Why didn't you teach me that when we were together?" Naruto yells in annoyance.
"Naruto, if I had given you special training while you were still at the academy, I would have been in trouble for disturbing a child's education of learning it themselves. It's different for parents and family members, but I'm not allowed to until you're my student." Kakashi explains, sweating a little since he didn't want the other two know he was training Naruto before.
"Oh..." Was all that Naruto says.
"Back to the learning now, to do this training you'll need to gather chakra to the bottom of your feet to walk up here, the feet are one of the hardest places to use chakra, once you succeed, you should be able to be any Jutsu's theoretically. This technique will also increase you stamina so that you can fight for longer." Kakashi explains and pulls out three Kunai. "But having me talking all day won't do anything; you've got to learn with your bodies." He states and throws the Kunai at their feet. "Use them to mark how high you get up the tree."
"Why?" Naruto asks.
"It's so you have a mark to surpass." Kakashi tells him. "You won't be able to walk up the tree at first so you may want to run at it to get momentum."
Naruto smirks. "No problem!" Naruto yells and the three Genin then focus chakra to their feet. "Here we go!" Naruto yells and runs very fast towards the tree, followed by the other two.
Naruto feet hit the bottom of the tree and he starts bolting up the tree, getting very high. "Naruto! Stop!" Kakashi yelled.
Naruto did just that. "Why-" he began to ask, but he just fell from very high on the tree and hit the ground hard. "Damn it!" He yells over and over again in pain.
"That's why." Kakashi sighs. "You have to use chakra to get up the tree, not by speed." Kakashi yells, he then sees Sasuke get over twenty feet up the tree before it cracks and he cuts the tree and jumps backwards. "I figured as much."
"Umm...K-Kakashi s-sensei?" Hinata calls, Kakashi and the others look and see Hinata nearly at the top of her tree. "W-Would i-it be a b-bad time t-to say t-that I d-don't like h-heights?" Hinata calls, holding onto the tree slightly.
Kakashi couldn't decide to sigh or chuckle. "Well, it seems that Hinata can control her chakra better then everyone here." He smiles. 'No surprise there, the Hyuga does have to be, to be able to their Gentle Fist technique.' Kakashi says to himself.
"Alright Hinata, you're the best!" Naruto cheers, making Hinata blush.
"That means that she is closer to being Hokage, unlike a curtain someone." Kakashi says to Naruto, gaining his attention. "And it seems that the Hyuga's are even more superior then the Uchiha clan." He now says to Sasuke.
Naruto and Sasuke look at each other, now they didn't want to be the last one to succeed in doing this and their determination grew. "There's no way I'm going to lose to you." Naruto grins.
"Naruto! Just a little tip." Kakashi says, gaining his attention. "Slow down and match Sasuke's speed, so that way you can't cheat." He tells him.
"You got it Kakashi sensei." Naruto smiles, rubbing the area he landed on earlier.
"Ok now Hinata, its best if you keep on training so you can increase your stamina." Kakashi says. "And hopefully you'll be a little less afraid of heights." Kakashi smiles as he walks down the tree.

Several miles away, deep in the woods of the Wave country, Gato's base is active and just outside, a few rouge Mist ninja stood near a giant Mist ninja, he has metal arms, chest and lower jaw. "This is a bloody pain! He weighs a ton for fuck sake! I'm expecting overtime for this!" One of the ninja yells.
Another Mist ninja appears; he is a man wearing traditional Mist ninja uniform, a Mist headband wrapped around his messy black hair and a breathing mask. "Shut up, we've got work to do...Zabuza wasn't kidding on those Genin, they took out Kaiju, a lot of damage, we'll have to fix him up fast, before Zabuza gets back on his feet." He tells them while placing a tool box near the falled Kaiju. "You alright Kaiju?"
"...No..." Kaiju says in a deep voice, barely able to move.
"Well, we'll work on that." He says, ordering the others to help repair and heal Kaiju.

A couple of hours pass and the three Genin are exhausted, but Naruto and Sasuke kept on going, Naruto could now go up seven feet before falling down while Sasuke manages to go to twenty four feet now.
Hinata is lying on the ground, breathing heavily, looking over to Naruto. 'How does Naruto-Kun do it?' She wonders to herself, thinking that she isn't as good as him and Sasuke.
"Damn it!" Naruto yells and walks over to Hinata. "Hey Hinata...could you give me some tips?" Naruto asks while bending down to her.
"W-What? I-I...umm...sure...N-Naruto-Kun." She says, slowly getting up.
'Hmm...Naruto is getting stronger and stronger, and now he's getting stronger by asking for help...who knows how powerful he'll be later on in life, since his chakra is above even mine. This will be an interesting experience.' Kakashi thinks to himself.

The next day, at the bridge, Hinata is waiting patiently by the side, looking at everything being built. "Aren't you bored all by yourself girl?" Tazuna asks, taking a short break. "Where's that blond kid and the other one?"
"W-Well, they're t-training." Hinata explains.
"And you don't have to?" Tazuna asks.
"I-I have a-already c-completed it, a-and Kakashi sensei s-said that I-I should g-guard y-you today." She tells him, going chakra exercise, trying to increase her stamina.
"You've already passed the training? No offence, but you seem weaker then the boys." Tazuna tells her, gaining a sad looking Hinata. "But I'm sure you are good in some places that they're not." He says, feeling guilty for making her sad.
Someone calls for Tazuna and he leaves Hinata alone to talk to one of the workers, Hinata could tell that it was an argument, since she sees one everyday at her home. Tazuna then walks away and towards Hinata. "W-What was t-that about?" Hinata asks the old man.
"Nothing, just an old friend giving up on hope...even some of our people have vanished." Tazuna replies with a worried tone. "We're calling it a day, but first, I need to go shopping for food."
Several minutes later, they were both walking down the crowded, dirty streets to get to the shops. 'I didn't think that it was this bad.' Hinata says to herself, feeling sad for everyone.
"Here's the shop." Tazuna says, walking into a shop with hardly any merchandise.
"There's hardly enough thing to buy here." Hinata says in disbelief.
A man walks by and sees that Hinata has a bag behind her; he reaches to steal it and grabs it. Hinata not too sure what to do, thinking it was a pervert, closed her eyes, screams in fear and shock, spinning around with her hand extended and smacked the man hard in the chops. The man is sent flying into the stands and he cries in pain. (In my opinion, even the weaker Shinobi have at least the strength of a very strong normal man)
"What happened?" Tazuna asks in surprise.
"I-I t-think I-I was vi-violated." Hinata tells in in a scared tone.
"No! All I was trying to do was steal her bag!" The man yells in pain.
Tazuna looks at him with disgust, quickly grabbing the food he needs and escorted Hinata to the cash register to pay for the food and left quickly. As they were walking down the street, Tazuna looks at Hinata. "I have to say, I was surprised back there. I'm sure he won't try that move again." He laughs, hoping that she'll be alright.
"W-What's g-going on in t-this v-village?" Hinata asks, but then something tugs her coat sleeve, she looks down and sees a dirty girl with her hands extended, hoping for something. Hinata looks sadly at the child and reaches into her bag and gave the girl a handful of sweets, the girl looks happy and ran happily down the street.
"It's what I'd call the great depression, all the adult have lost hope, that's why we need the bridge, it a symbol of courage, we need it to lose their fear and stand up for themselves again. Once the bridge is built, then the village will return to the way it was, and hopefully the people will return to the way they used to as well." Tazuna explains.
Hinata felt sorry for everyone and hoped that they would succeed.

Naruto and Sasuke were charging up the tree at great speed, they manage to get half way till Naruto slips and marks his place in the tree before falling. He saw Sasuke keeps on running about several feet before marking and jumping backwards; he spots Naruto's position and curses. 'Damn, he's getting closer!' He yells to himself.
They both stood on the ground for a second, catching their breaths, Naruto took a deep breath, remembering what Hinata told him. 'All you have to do is not get too excited and focus on the tree.' Hinata told him, well...in her own stuttering way.
Naruto smirks, thinking that he's got it now and is about to charge at the tree. "Hey, Naruto!" Sasuke calls, making him stumble and regain his footing.
"What do you want? I'm trying to train here!" Naruto yells in annoyance.
"You asked Hinata for some tips, didn't you?" He asks, making Naruto look dumbstruck that Sasuke was asking that. "So...what did she say?" He asks.
"I'm not telling you anything!" Naruto yells, glaring at him.
"Then she must have been useless then, just like you." Sasuke says in annoyance, looking at the tree and was about to run up it.
"Don't say things like that!" Naruto yells, tackling Sasuke and the two started fighting and beating the shit out of each other.

It's been several hours and at Tazuna's house, Team 7 and Tazuna's family are all eating dinner, well...Sasuke and Naruto were drinking theirs through a straw since Naruto's jaw was cracked, while Sasuke's lips were bleeding. "Ow!" They both yell, hurting with each swallow of their meal.
"Naruto-Kun!" Hinata calls, becoming worried about him. "Y-You shouldn't...h-have f-fought with S-Sasuke..."
"...Sorry..." Naruto tells her with a sad and pain filled groan at the end.
"...Yeah..." Sasuke says, cursing in pain and looks at his fist, seeing it black and brushed from smashing his fist into Naruto's jaw.
Kakashi nods in agreement. 'They really need to work on being friends...but then again...rivalry is always a problem.' He says to himself.
After dinner, Hinata is looking at a picture frame of Tazuna's family, but she notices that a piece of the picture was missing. "Umm...why is t-there a t-torn p-picture on t-the wall? It looks l-like there was s-someone else i-in the picture." Hinata says.
The family looks a little depressed when she asks, making Hinata think that she did something wrong. "It was my husband." Tsunami informs her.
"And he was a hero to the village." Tazuna tells her, Inari then stands and leaves the room, slamming the door on his way out.
"Inari!" Tsunami yells. "Father, I told you not to talk about him in front of Inari!" She yells in anger.
"Why? What happened?" Naruto asks in confusion, clenching his teeth in pain, wondering how he forgot that his jaw is fractured.
Tazuna then began on telling them what happened to Inari, his non related father and how he became a hero to the village. He went on to how Gato came to the Land of Waves and put Inari's father to death, and how Inari changed that day.
Naruto then stands up and wobbles towards the door. "Naruto, if you are thinking of training, then take the day off, you've released too much chakra today, anymore and you'll die." Kakashi informs him.
"No." Naruto says, making everyone look at him strangely. "I'm going...to prove that...there are...heroes in...this world." He tells him, remembering the Third Hokage telling him about the Forth Hokage being a hero.
