One sided love?
Chapter 13
Naruto looked at Cho for but a moment, slightly confused by what she meant, then it hit him. "So in a life threatening situation, Hinata tryed to summon fox, and the fox she tried to summon was the demon in me?"
Cho looked at Naruto. "You are quite Sharp sometimes."
Naruto frowned. "You didn't have to say sometimes."
Hinata pulled at Naruto's arm, he looked down at her and his face softened. He wrapped his arms further around Hinata, and whiped the tears off her cheek.
Cho looked down on the two young gennins and smiled. "They seem just as innocent as we were." She let out an almost silent giggle.
Kouken came running in there direction, he stopped in front of the three. "So this is where you went." He was looking at Naruto. "What happened, you just disapeared."
Naruto looked up at him and grinned. "Hinata summoned me, well actually she summoned the demon in me, brining me wit hit."
"But you can't summon something locked away, no matter what was…" Kouken's face grinned. "Naruto, just before you got pulled away, what were you doing?"
Naruto looked slightly confused. "Umm, I was trying out my new technique."
Kouken's grin widened. "Just as I thought. Naruto, please show us your technique."
Naruto looked slightly frightened. "N-No, not while Hinata is around, it is too dangerous. I have not perfected dit."
Kouken's face softened. "Sorry, I forgot you have not contained it, it was just in the spur of the moment. But, if you were to try it when Hinata was around, even holding you, it might just work. I have seen a lot recently, but what I have noticed most of all, is that you two need to be together, when you two are together you are at your strongest."
Naruto thought that over for a moment.
Hinata hugged Naruto tighter. "I-It's ok, I want to help"
Naruto looked down at her. "I know you do, but what if it goes wrong, you wil be in danger."
Hinata managed a smile. "I won't be in danger, because I know you can do it."
Naruto nodded. "Ok, lets do it, together."
Hinata's smile widened as they both stood up, she was no longer hugging him, but there hands were held together.
Naruto started top reform the hand seals needed.
Kouken's face widened. "How is he doing it with one hand? I only taught him it with two hands, yet he is doing it perfectly. Could it really be that when they are together they DO have strength like no other?"
Naruto finished the last seal. "Oni houyou no jutsu!" (Demon Embrace) Naruto's eyes went blood red, his teeth grew into fangs and his whiskers became extremely jagged.
Kouken shook his head. "It looks like he may be able top reform it with one hand, but it has no power, there is not even one tail."
"You are wrong." Cho stated. "Look behind him"
Kouken did as she said, his eyes widened. "H-How, this is his First time doing it with one hand and yet he perfected it, not only did he perfect it, he has pulled out more power than even I can." He started to grin. "You are an extremely special person Naruto, and Hinata, I am more thans ure it is because of you that he is this way."
Naruto looked their way. His eyes were completely red, like that of a demon, but the only thing keeping him from looking like one completely, was the fact he was still holding Hinata's hand as gentle as ever. Naruto smiled, it was quite an evil looking smile, but Kouken knew that Naruto was in control.
Hinata looked at Naruto, but was not afraid, instead she smiled gently and hugged Naruto. "Y-You did it, I knew you could."
Naruto looked at her and smiled, and even though it looked evil, she didn't look away.
Out of blue Naruto started to yell. "Get out of there Hinata, he is losing control, it is dangerous now." Hinata shook her head, and instead of running, or turning away, she hugged him as firmly as she could.
Naruto still yelling in pain, the pain of the nine-tails trying to take control, could feel the warmth of her body. "I can't let Hinata get hurt!" His painful yell turned into that of a beast.
Kouken looked worried. "Hinata has to get away, she will die if Naruto can't hold back."
"It's ok, like you said, when they are together, that have strength like no other, just trust them on this."
Kouken sighed.
Hinata hugged Naruto tighter. "Come back to me Naruto!"
Naruto's eyes widened. "Hinata!" His yells changed into screams, and his eyes started to change back.
It was then that what Kouken saw, was able tob e seen by the rest. The nine-tails demon was standing behind Naruto, but it didn't seem tob e looking very powerful, in turn, it seemed to be losing it's power.
Hinata shook when she saw the demon. She wrapped her arms around Naruto as tight as she could and started to cry.
Naruto could hear the crying. "Hinata is crying, I can't let the demon win, I have to win! I will protect my Hina-chan, I will not let you have her demon!"
"Do you think you have a choice?" The all too familiar voice of the nine-tails came from the spectre behind Naruto. "Do you think a boy such as you can possibly win right now against me? I will take over your body and I will devour this here girl!"
Naruto yelled again. "No you wont! I will protect her with every thing I have!"
A loud rumbling laugh. "You don't actual;y think that you have any power at all do you? I am your power!"
Hinata clenched Naruto more. "Naruto-kun, don't listen to him."
"I know Hinata." He whispered. He started to yell again, and this time it was quite fearsome.
"What are you trying to do?" Came the know firghtened sounding demon. "Stop it now, or I will kill you on the spot, or better yet, I will have you kill her." The demon started to laugh again.
Naruto growled. "The day you ever cause me to do anything, is the last day I live."
"That was the plan."
Naruto yelled even harder, his eyes went blood red again.
"W-where is this power coming from?" The demon was now clearly afraid.
"It is the power that the two of them share." Kouken explained to the demon.
"Power that they share?"
"Yes, it comes because of the love they have for each other. It gives them power, power that even you cannot defeat, since you are entertwined into it."
"Fools! You don't possibly think that the power of love can win?"
"No, it is not the power of love, love has no power."
"Then what do you mean?" The demon asked confused.
"The power does not come from love itself, but because Naruto is determined to protect Hinata, there for, he pulls out all of his power to do so, and tht includes yours."
"Ha! Don't make me laugh, I grant him my power."
"Not enirely, there are times when he demands it, I am sure. Those times are impossible for you to deny it, but you makei t look like you allow it."
"What are you talkin gabout fool? What do you know?"
"Obviously more than you want us to." Kouken sneered.
A deafening roar came from the spectre. "I will not lose to a child!"
Naruto started to yell out in pain, as the spectre started to darken again.
Hinata cluched Naruto harder and tears streamed down her cheeks.
Naruto saw the tears, knew what she was thinking. "I will not lose here, I must protct Hinata, you will not have her!"
Naruto yelled as loud as he could, and the spectre began to fade away, as i fit was being sucked back into his body.
"What is this? How can I be losing!"
Naruto let out one more yell and the spectre disapeared. He fell down to one knee, Hinata hugging him stopped him from falling, his breathin went back to normal and his features slowly returned.
Kouken walked over tot hem. "Naruto, you are truly something, you have passed part one, and in such a short time. I am proud of you"
Naruto managed a weak smile. "You may be proud of me, but without Hinata there with me I would not have made it." He wrapped his arms around Hinata and hugged her tightly. "Thank you for staying wih me untill the end." He whispered to Hinata.
Hinata couldn't control herself anymore, she hugged Naruto tightly, and once again their lips met. "I thought I was going to lose you there." She bagan to cry again.
"I am sorry Hina-chan, I didn't want to worry you."
"I think we should head back to the house for some rest, neither of you are capable of training anymore today, but Naruto, I would like a word with you, about your training."
"That can wait awhile." Came Hinata's soft voice. "He is coming back with me right now, he needs his rest."
Naruto looked up at Hinata and smiled.
Kouken smiled. "Fine, I will talk about it after dinner."
Hinata started to blush after she realized how she just sounded.
The four of them went back to the house where Ryuu was waiting for them, the smell of dinner could be smelled through the whole house.
During dinner the whole thing was explained to Ryuu, who then looked at Naruto and smiled. "It seems you have more life in you than any other person around, or at least when you are together with Hinata."
Hinata looked over at Kouken. "What happened? Why did the nine-tails try to take over, how did it come out?"
"That was the first part of the training, he called the demon out of him with that, and forced it back in, if he can't do that much, he can never complete the training. But there is a different between perfecting the technique and completing the First part."
"But you said he completed it."
"And that he did, he managed to pull the demon out, and thus he had to force it back in, I didn't expect him to be able to do it so easily, but he had no problem pulling it out, not with you there anyways. And it was also thanks to you that he was able to complete the first part of the training, you should both be proud of your selves."
Hinata and Naruto looked at each other and smiled. They knew very well what might have happened, but since they were together, they felt like they could do anything.
Naruto looked at Kouken. "Kouken, you said you wanted to talk to me about the training?"
"That I did, but it can wait awhile, you two just rest awhile and I will explain it all in the morning."
The two of them headed off to bed, Hinata asked Naruto if he would stay with her untill she fell asleep. Hinata layed in her bed and Naruto sat beside her bed and waited for her to fall asleep, it wasn't long before he too fell asleep, before he ended up in his own room.
Kouken looked into the room as the door was not closed. "I will leave the two of them like that, they deserve some rest." He smiled while looking at the sleping Naruto whose ars were wrapped around Hinata, who too was sound asleep.
What is this second part of the training that Kouken sensei is talking about? What could be hiding inside of Naruto before he is finished with his training? And why will Kouken only say it to Naruto alone?
