"What's so funny?" Shizune raised an eye-brow.

"I was just picturing the look on Sasuke-san's face when I tell them that he and Hinata-san are married for life…MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!"

"…WHAT?"

Tsunade and Shizune looked at the person who just walked into the office, a surprised look on his/her face.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?"


Life isn't fair
chapter 11

angry Hyuuga's mean trouble...


'Well' Tsunade thought 'It could have been worse…could have been Sasuke-san…' Tsunade shuddered at the thought.

Tsunade peeked out from behind Shizune, eyeing the pissed off Hyuuga, which was being held back by Kiba, Shino and Shikamaru.

"WHAT THE F#CK IS THIS SUPPOSED TO MEAN?" The normally calm and collected Hyuuga Neji hollered. It takes a lot for a Hyuuga to loose his patience…but after hearing Tsunade talking about Hinata-sama being married to Uchiha Sasuke, which drew the final straw…

Kiba, Shino and Shikamaru were holding him back with their entire strength, but where able to restrain Neji from going Jyuuken on the Hokage. 'First the cow-thing…now this? I'm surprised that he hasn't snapped.' Shikamaru thought '…how troublesome…'

Kiba used all his willpower to keep from laughing…he knew all about this, and wasn't surprised when Neji went berserk.

Shino didn't do anything, he just held Neji back. He was anxious to go back bug-hunting, he had just found one of the rarest spiders in the world…goddamn you Kiba!

They're attention was drawn to the door, when Hinata walked through it.

"Tsunade-sensei, I'm finishe-Neji-nii-san! What happened?" Hinata stared at her cousin.

"What happened? WHAT HAPPENED YOU ASK? I WALK IN HERE TO REPORT A MISSION, WHICH BY THE WAY CONSISTED OF KILLING MY BACK AND RUINING MY SENSE OF SMELL, AND TO MAKE IT ALL BETTER, I FIND OUT THAT YOUR MARRIED, THUS EXPLAINING WHY YOU HAVEN'T BEEN HOME FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS" Hinata gulped and blushed. "AND TO UCHIHA SASUKE! IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW!"

"KAA-CHAN!"

Neji's head snapped to the door, where a blond-haired boy came running inside, to Hinata.

"Naruto-chan…"

Being the Hyuuga genius he was, he read Hinata's eyes and saw nothing but happiness, and the boy grinned wide. Then Sasuke entered the scene, making Hinata blush. He saw that Sasuke blushed also. He put two and two together…and fainted.

…they were already a family…and they knew nothing about being married for life…

Kiba, Shikamaru, Tsunade and Shizune sweatdropped at the scene. Shino did what he always did at times like this…absolutely nothing.

"What are you doing here?" Hinata asked. She felt something fly around in her stomach, and her heart started racing.

"WE HEAWED A SCWEAM! AND I SAW YOUS HEWE!"

As usual, Naruto made absolutely no sense, but somehow Hinata managed to understand him, while no one else did.

"Well, I'm fine, but Neji-nii-san isn't." Hinata placed Naruto on the ground and went to wake Neji up.

She tried slapping his face, nothing. Kiba tried shouting at him, he gave a small twitch (he shouted "TenTen's in labor!") It wasn't until Naruto joined them, that they got a response…Naruto poked his face, and then Neji made a face. Naruto giggled and poked again, this time hitting him straight in the nose… inside his nose (A/N: EWWWWW!) Neji bolted up, and slapped his face. Naruto barely got his hand away, and started sobbing. And, of course, our Hyuuga genius panicked right away.

Sasuke was about to comfort Naruto, but Kiba held his hand out to stop him, never leaving his eyes of Neji. 'This'll be great practice for the future father…'

'How troublesome…' thought Shikamaru. It didn't take a genius with an IQ of over 200 to realize Neji was in BIG trouble.

Hinata stared at her cousin. Was he panicking? 'Neji-nii-san never panics…'

"Hey! Why are you crying?" Neji flared his arms around, making the others sweatdrop.

Naruto rubbed his eyes, and looked up to stare at Neji. His big, chibi-eyes almost (!) made Neji melt. Naruto's tears returned, and he sniffled. "You's gived me owie!" And he cried. Neji's eyes widened and he put his hand on Naruto's head, like his father had done to him, when his father was alive…

"I'm sorry…"

Hinata stared at Neji; she remembered when her uncle Hizashi would that to Neji. She smiled at the memory.

Sasuke was too busy daydreaming, to notice Neji's display of affection to the young boy.

Shikamaru, Kiba and Shino sweat-dropped, Tsunade and Shizune joined Hinata and smiled.

Naruto stared up at Neji, and grinned. He could feel that this person was nice, so he decided to be nice back! And if anything happened, Otou-san would kick his ass! "What's your name?"

"Neji…Hyuuga Neji…"

Naruto gasped. "YOU'S AWE NEJI! TENTEN-NEE-CHAN IS ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT YOUS AND BWUSHING!"

Neji gave a proud smirk. "Well, she is my wife…"

Naruto grinned. "So, yous is gonna have Hikawi soon?"

"Yes, I am!" Neji stated proudly.

Naruto clapped his hands together, giggling. "YAY! YOUS IS GONNA BE THE SECOND BESTEST OTOU-SAN IN THE WHOLEST WORLD!"

"Second best?" Neji raised an eye-brow, as did everyone else in the room.

"HAI! MY OTOU-SAN IS THE BESTEST, AND NO ONE CAN BE BETTEREST THAN HIM!" Naruto grinned, waiving his arms in the air for emphasis.

Hinata smiled, and looked at Sasuke. He had a proud smirk on his face and his arms were crossed. Shikamaru and Kiba rolled their eyes. 'Show off…' Shino probably did the same thing, but no one knew, because of his sunglasses. Tsunade and Shizune giggled.

Neji shook his head. "Well, I'm glad to hear that he takes good care of you. By the way, what's your name?"

"I AM THE GREAT UCHIHA NARUTO!"

And Neji fainted again, making everyone sweatdrop, and poor Naruto blinked, and started shaking him. Naruto tried poking him again (A/N: EWWWW) but it didn't work. He then started crying.

Sasuke stared at Naruto. 'NOT AGAIN!' "Naruto! Stop crying!" Sasuke ran to Naruto and picked him up.

"Why is all of them always slweeping when they know my name? Do they hates me?"

"No! How can anyone hate you?" Sasuke patted his back, trying to calm Naruto down.

The girls smiled, but the boys stared. Since when did Sasuke become a caring father?

Neji started to wake up, and quickly stood up and dusted the imaginary dust of him, and walked out of the Hokage's office, without saying a word. Little Naruto was about to start crying again, and Neji noticed, so Neji did something very out of character:

He turned his head and grinned at Naruto. Naruto caught the message behind the grin, and smiled.

Didn't mean to make you cry, I'm not used to the being nice-thing…I'm going to be a father myself, so I'll need practice. Maybe I'll ask for your help someday…


Ino stared at her pink-haired friend, who had just ended her tale of having to marry Naruto. She looked at TenTen, who was just as shocked, and burst out laughing at the same time that TenTen did.

Sakura was not pleased. "STOP LAUGHING! This is serious! What am I going to tell Sasuke-kun? What will I do when Hinata-chan finds out? Oh! I'm so dead!" she pulled her knees up to her chest, rested her chin on top and hugged her legs close: meaning she was depressed.

Ino saw this and sighed, trying to stop giggling. "Well…I always knew you had a thing for kids, but Sakura…agreeing to marry one? That makes you a pedophile, ne?"

"Ino-pig…did Shikamaru turn into a three year old when he asked you to marry him? Did you see the old Neji when he asked you, TenTen-chan? I love Naruto-kun, but I don't love Naruto-chan! I'm in serious trouble here!" Sakura hopelessly tried to keep her tears away.

"So you finally admit you love him?" Ino giggled.

"…you're not helping Ino-chan…" TenTen shook her head, trying to get the image of the old, destiny-loving, ice-cube Neji, asking her to marry him…

"Destiny has brought us together and destiny has told me to marry you…we cannot defy fate…we must marry…this was planned before we were born…and we will do what destiny has told us to do…so TenTen…take my hand and we shall do as the world has destined us to do…we will marry and we will be happy…and here ends my super-long, boring-as-hell speech of destiny…I hope I could convince you…if you would just wake up, then we could finish this so I can train…"

It would never be like when the new Neji asked her to marry him

"TenTen…you are the only woman for me…I think I've loved you ever since I met you…but I was too stubborn to do anything about it…your smile lights up my life…and I want to see that smile everyday for the rest of my life on one knee TenTen-chan…will you marry me?"

…the candle lights…the romantic music…sigh…the night had been perfect! ...in so many ways…

"Uhh…TenTen-chan? Are you ok?" Sakura sweat-dropped, TenTen had stars in her eyes, and was blushing.

"Huh…oh...sorry about that!" TenTen giggled.

"Well, if you're done daydreaming, let's help forehead-girl!" Ino punched the air for emphasis.

Sakura smiled. Who had been so nice to bless her with such friends? The ones who laughed at you, then helped you? Sakura's smile turned into a frown; was she lucky…or wasn't she lucky? Oh, well! She always had Hinata-chan.


'WHY THE HELL DID SAKURA-CHAN KISS HIM?' Hinata thought, lying in her bed, trying to block out the laughing outside her room, where Naruto and Sasuke were playing tag. It was kinda funny, seeing Sasuke act like a child. Sometimes, he would get angry and he'd run around chasing him, or Naruto, being the little troublemaker he was, would kick Sasuke and start a game of kick, laugh and run, which was happening right now, and keeping Hyuuga Hinata from her glorious naptime.

'I swear, if Sakura tries anything with Naruto-chan, I'll moo her! Damn…I've been around Sasuke-san and Gaara-san too much…why won't they be quiet? I'm trying to sleep here!' She was ripped out of her thoughts when she heard something breaking. She activated her Byakugan, and saw Sasuke and Naruto standing side by side, scratching their head. She noticed that the thing they were staring at, and got very mad. 'THAT'S THE VASE SAKURA-CHAN, INO-CHAN AND TENTEN-CHAN GAVE ME THIS MORNING!'

Sasuke and Naruto felt the murderous aura emitting from Hinata's bedroom, and they gulped.

The door opened, revealing Hinata; her hair sticking out in all directions, her eyes big and angry, her face hidden from shadow. She also seemed a lot taller than usual.

Naruto immediately dove behind Sasuke, shaking. Sasuke stepped back, trying to cover Naruto from the wrath of Hyuuga Hinata.

"You…YOU BROKE THE VASE MY FRIENDS GAVE ME! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS? I'M TRYING TO SLEEP, AND YOU BREAK MY FAVORITE VASE! ANSWER ME!" Hinata took a step closer, making Sasuke take another step back.

"Umm…Hinata? Can you just calm down for a moment? I'll explain everythin-"

"Calm down? CALM DOWN? I WANT TO SLEEP, AND I WANT YOU TO BUY ME A NEW VASE…EXACTLY LIKE THIS ONE! AND I DON'T WANT YOU TO RETURN HERE UNTIL YOU HAVE ANOTHER VASE FOR ME…AND I WANT LILIES TOO…AND CHOCOLATE…AND APPLES!" Hinata took another step, and Naruto started sobbing.

"Naruto-chan? Don't cry!" Hinata returned to her normal sweet self, and bent down to look at Naruto.

"Kaa-chan! Stop being so scawy! I dun like it!" Naruto ran and hugged Hinata, who hugged him back, and kissed the top of his head.

A large sweatdrop found its way onto Sasuke's head. How can someone seem so angry and murderous one second, and then turn into a mother the next? Sasuke gulped when he saw Hinata glaring at him, the murderous look back full force. "Uhh…Naruto? Let's…play outside, shall we? Maybe we'll find…Neji or…Kiba!"

"OK! BYE KAA-CHAN! WE'LL BUY YOUS A NEW ONE AND CHOCOLATE AND APPLES!" Naruto ran to take Sasuke's hand and pulled him out.

'How can a three year old be so goddamn strong?' Sasuke wondered as Naruto pulled him out the door. "Wait! Naruto, put your shoes on!" Naruto giggled and went to put his shoes on. Sasuke took the moment to look behind him, and stared. There stood Hinata, her look back full force. Naruto finished putting his shoes on, and was now pulling on Sasuke's leg to put his sandals on, looking like he didn't have a care in the world. Sasuke looked back at Hinata, and got scared. The message from her glare was as clear as a crystal:

Don't forget the chocolate!

Sasuke helped Naruto, picked him up and ran out the door.

Hinata sighed, and went to clean up the mess. 'Maybe I was too harsh on them…oh well. I'll just bake them cookies!'


"Hey, you guys…isn't it July 21st today?" Sakura stopped walking, suddenly remembering something very important.

"Yes…!" Ino blushed, trying to figure out how she could have forgotten something like this!

"Why?" TenTen raised an eyebrow, trying to figure out why they were so serious suddenly.

"We have to go shopping…NOW!"

"It has to be PERFECT!"

"Uhh…what are you talking about?" TenTen had a large sweatdrop at the back of her head.

Ino and Sakura turned to TenTen and screamed at the same time:

"SASUKE-KUN'S BIRTHDAY IS JULY 23RD! IN TWO DAYS!"


'I feel like I'm forgetting something…' Sasuke thought. He felt Naruto kick his chin, and looked up. Naruto was sitting on his shoulders, trying to reach a butterfly. Apparently, he wasn't doing so well. The look of pure concentration on Naruto's face showed that he wasn't about to give up, not yet at least. Naruto pouted when the butterfly flew away. He rested his head on top of Sasuke's and sighed. "Otou-san?"

Sasuke looked up. "Hm?"

"I'm hungry!" and a growl from Naruto's stomach proved it.

Sasuke smiled slightly and nodded. "Ichiraku?"

"Hai!" Naruto grinned.

"Ok!" Sasuke smirked.

People who Sasuke and Naruto walked by smiled at them, but when they noticed the boy on Sasuke's shoulders, their smiles turned into frowns and they glared hard.

"What's Uchiha-san thinking? He must know that's the demon he's carrying."

"Yes, though he's in the form of a young boy, it cannot fool us!"

"The demon must have put a spell on him! He's probably going to kill Uchiha-san, just like he did to the Fourth!"

"Taking the strongest Ninjas of this village must be his hobby! Destroying the village like he owns this country…"

Naruto noticed this and whimpered. Sasuke noticed this, and glared back. He took Naruto from his shoulders and held him close, making the people snort. Naruto gripped Sasuke's shirt and held tightly. "Why awe they stawing at us?" he whimpered.

Sasuke sighed. 'Because of the Kyuubi…' "I don't know…maybe they're jealous…" He frowned when Naruto started shaking. He knew the boy was crying, so he just tightened his hold on the boy. "Hey…stop crying…they don't mean it…its ok." Sasuke patted Naruto's back. Naruto nodded his head and tried to keep the tears back. Sasuke walked into Ichiraku's and ordered.

Sakura and Ino were going crazy…

"OMG! I can't BELIEVE we almost forgot IT! We have to go shopping NOW! It has to be perfect! I KNOW! Remember that weapons-store we passed earlier? #Ino nods# the swords we saw? The ones with the red blades and the dragon design? They're perfect for Sasuke-kun!"

Ino nodded with a smile on her face, while TenTen just stared. All of this…because of someone's birthday? "Uhh…you guys…I gotta go…bye!" and she ran away. Sakura and Ino just blinked, but shrugged and continued talking about Sasuke's gift.

Naruto eyed the girls from his seat at Ichiraku's, they were talking about Otou-san? He got of his chair and walked to their direction. Sasuke noticed him and walked after Naruto.

Naruto stopped in front of Sakura. He heard her say Sasuke's name and his eye-brow lifted. He pulled on her dress and asked: "Ano sa…why awe yous tawking about Otou-san?"

Sakura looked down at Naruto, an angry expression on her face. "SHUT UP GAKI! This is important so GO AWAY!"

Sasuke and Ino stared at Sakura, then at Naruto. He had a shocked expression on his face. Tears started leaking, and Sakura noticed what just happened. She looked at Naruto with a shocked face, and was about to say sorry.

"YOU HATES MEE!" Naruto shouted and ran out the door.

Sasuke ran after him, while Ino glared at Sakura, along with everyone in Ichiraku's. Sakura looked like she was about to cry, and she ran out the door. She saw Sasuke and panicked. "Sasuke-kun? Where's Naruto?"

Sasuke snapped his head to her and glared. "Why did you do that? Naruto-chan loves you! OMG! Hinata-chan's gonna kill me! Damn it! We gotta find him!"

Ino ran to them. "I'll help!" Sasuke thanked her and they both glared at Sakura. "This is your fault, you know…" Ino said.

Sakura looked at her feet in shame. "I know…"

"Let's split up! We'll return here in 15 minutes if we don't find him…then we'll talk to Hokage-sama…" Ino and Sakura nodded and were about to go looking, but stopped when Sasuke shouted.

"NO! Sakura, I think you've done enough! You wait here!"

"But, Sasuke-kun…" Sakura was about to say something.

"No! I don't want you to go near Naruto-chan!" and with that, Sasuke disappeared. Ino took a second to glare at Sakura, before saying. "You wait here, in case he comes back…" and she disappeared.

Sakura frowned. 'It's my fault he ran away, so it's the least I can do…' and she disappeared.


15 minutes later, Ino and Sasuke returned to Ichiraku's.(A/N: Ino is totally over Sasuke! Besides…Shika-kun is MUCH hotter than Sasuke! Ino: HELL YEAH!) Sakura wasn't there.

"WHERE THE HELL IS SHE?"

"Maybe she gave up and went home…" Ino stared at Sasuke. He was…worried?

"Oh man! What am I gonna tell Hinata-chan? Damn it…She's gonna KILL me!"

Ino sweatdropped. 'So that's why…'

Sasuke felt something hit his cheek. He looked up, and at that exact moment, it started raining. "GREAT! Now it's RAINING!" Sasuke fumed, shaking his fist to the sky. "THANK YOU VERY MUCH!"

Ino gaped at Sasuke. He was acting like a child! Then his cute pout turned into a shocked expression, when they heard someone screaming. It was Sakura's voice.

"NARUTO-CHAN!"

It came from the east-gate. Sasuke and Ino hurried to the east-gate, finding it closed. They heard Sakura call Naruto's name again. "It came from outside the gate!"

Sasuke stomped to the Chuunin on duty, and told him to open the gate.

The Chuunin shook his head. "I'm sorry, Uchiha-san, but the Hokage ordered for the gates to be closed for the night…you'll have to talk to her." Sasuke fumed some more, and then walked to Ino. Then, lightning struck and they heard both Sakura and Naruto scream. Then silence. And a crack, they looked to the gate and saw a tree falling. When it crashed, they heard Sakura.

"NARUTO-CHAAAAN! NOO!"

Sasuke glared at the Chuunin, he was very pissed off! "OPEN THIS GATE, NOW!" he shouted. But the Chuunin shook his head. "Hokage's orders, besides, the demon deserves to die!" Ino stared at the Chuunin, and then at Sasuke. He seemed to be even more pissed off. He punched the Chuunin. "SHUT UP! There is a law for this! She is a civilian! It's forbidden to talk about this with her around!"

"What law?" Ino's voice was shaking.

Sasuke looked at Ino, and snapped. "The Kyuubi is sealed within Naruto!" Then he realized what he just said. Ino just stood there, not moving, or blinking. 'Naruto…the Kyuubi? That's impossible! The fourth killed the demon fox!' She shook her head and ran away. Sasuke followed her to the Hokage's office. She burst through the door, not caring if she was interrupting something, which she was. Tsunade was having a meeting with Gaara, Shikamaru, Lee, Neji and Hinata.

"HOKAGE-SAMA!"

"Ino…what did I tell you about knocking?" Tsunade snapped.

Sasuke came in after her. "There's no time for that!" he threw the Chuunin, who he knocked out, and stated emotionlessly: "This Chuunin broke the law the Third set 18 years ago."

Tsunade's eyes widened. "Who heard?"

Sasuke looked at Ino. "She did…"

Ino looked shaken. Shikamaru already knew, and went to hug Ino. It was a shock to her, it and been for him also. "Shikamaru-kun…is it true?"

Shikamaru sighed. "I'm afraid it is, Ino…"

Ino stared at Shikamaru, then at Tsunade, then at Sasuke. "You mean…Naruto is the demon?"

"No! Ino-chan…he's not the demon…the Kyuubi may be sealed inside Naruto-chan…but Naruto-chan isn't the Kyuubi!" Hinata stated with an angry expression on her face.

Ino stared at Hinata. Neji nodded and Lee sighed. "So…everyone knew…except me?" Ino snapped.

Tsunade sighed. "Ino…Remember when Naruto went on that S-class mission a few months ago? Right before Neji and TenTen's wedding?" Ino nodded. "Well, he came home covered in blood, with a deep gash in his side?"

"Yes. Sakura-chan said that he wouldn't make it, yet he was awake two days later…" Ino's eyes widened.

Hinata stood up. "It was thanks to Kyuubi that he survived."

Sasuke snorted. "He's been like that since forever…"

Neji smirked. "No wonder he beat me in our first Chuunin-exam…"

Lee grinned. "His endless stamina too…is because of the Kyuubi…"

Gaara smiled. (A/N: OO) "He's just like me…"

"So…you all knew?" Ino looked at the group. They all nodded. "Does TenTen-chan know?" Neji shook his head. "What about Sakura-chan?" Tsunade shook her head. "She doesn't know, but I think she has a clue…"

Suddenly a Jounin came running. "Hokage-sama! The east-gate, it's on fire!"


CLIFFHANGER-NO-JUTSU! #POOF#

A/N: HAHAH! You'll just have to wait for the next chappie! err…sorry, not funny…hehehe…I'll shut up now…
