Roxie.88 I owe you an apology. I said chapter's 13 and 14 would be out yesterday, but something came up. Anyway, thanks for the review. It's due to reviewers like you that makes writers want to continue our stories.

MYK-ON Thank you! I am working hard to get more chapters out but have a higher quality than those before it.

PhinalPhantasy... I don't remember the speech to Freeza I fear. It's been way too long I guess.

Ayrmed Thank you for allowing me to utilize your idea. I have not used it in this story as I thought I would, but I believe it may be a great lead-in for my sequel if I choose to go that way which I am considering doing. As for Sasuke...He needed a way to grow up and past his hatred, and Sakura needs to show that she is no longer the annoying little fangirl she was in her youth.

Story Recommendation: Blind. Best SasuSaku story I have ever read and I have read a decent number of them.

AN: A very special thank you to Phantom Noble who helped me to plan out this chapter and introduce a very unique concept near the end of the chapter, and the name of the chapter.

Now

Bloody Dance Chapter 14: Hinata's Challenge: Shit's About To Get Real!

Himori is the name I gave to Hinata's Mother as it never mentioned. I also named Hiashi's father whose name I also believe has never been mentioned.

It's been two days since the 'war game tournament' was announced. Konoha was abuzz about the 'shinobi' of the future taking on one of their legacies; the lord Sanin Orochimaru. While the council tried to keep the fact that they were from the future quiet, Naruto was not having it, and created upward a thousand kage bunshin to spread the word, although most in henge if for no other reason than to keep the council on their toes. By the end of the confusion, Naruto was again back at his hotel room on his sides laughing his ass off at his childlike angst. He even sent more out later to say it was a prank. He missed this side to his youth. He was recently informed that he was not the only Hokage with a sense of humor. The Shodaime Hokage Senju Hashirama was as did as well, and would have been pleased by his legacy of pranks being passed on.

After Naruto rested up and restored his minor depletion of chakra, he decided it was nearly time to face the one person he knew by legend alone to fear. The red hot habanero of Konoha known as Uzumaki Kushina; his mother. After obtaining documents of the most recent massacre in his time, Naruto began to study. He didn't like it as it was boring and mundane, but his longtime friend Shikamaru always seemed to have an end game which helped Konoha in the long run. Fortunately, Shikamaru also suggested having my Kage Bushin help. They were not happy and complained the whole time.

'I can't believe I had to pay off Kage Bushin. With RAMEN!' Naruto thought back, grateful he saved his most of his fortune as Daimyo in scrolls which he keeps a few near and they still seemed to work. 'But the clones were not stupid. They made him pay up first before they would do any of the research. Damn kage bunshin. At least that taught me how to avoid the paperwork problems my predecessors dealt with. ' Naruto sighed and laughed to himself again at the memories.

Naruto stood up and walked over to sit down on the couch. He thought long and hard when Hinata said she was ready to meet her parents. He, along with Sakura, Hinata and Ivaria was against it, but more surprising was that Sasuke entered unwanted advice as he seemed to want to stay with us for the time being before moving back to his estate. This also perplexed everyone as he sat down on the other couch beside Ivaria and opposite Sakura. Hinata was Naruto's mate, and beloved, but he did not own her. All he could do was vent his concerns, but she was to make the final decision.

Naruto and Hinata left the hotel room shortly after, and make their way across Konoha until they finally reach Hinata's ancestral home where they were met by the one person Hinata did not expect to greet her. The one person in the world she loved as much as Naruto stood before her. And she let it, her composure slip for just a second as she chokes out;

"K...Kaa –Sama," silently and immediately knelt, tears fought a battle to come out, and she was in a completely submissive state that Naruto had never seen even the meekest Hinata show.

Naruto's mouth dropped open as he had completely forgotten that Hinata's mother was alive during this time. Naruto then knelt equally as humbled.

Hinata's mother said nothing as she was not used to those outside of the Hyuuga clan showing such deference, especially one who she now saw the royal family's seal upon. And this girl had just called her Kaa-Sama.

'If the rumors are true, then this is Hinata,' The Lady Hyuuga thought, not allowing her shock to show. She simply commanded gently, "Stand." They both did very slowly, but purposefully. "If rumors are to be believed, you both are from the future,"

Naruto scratches the back of his head, reddening a little from his earlier antics maybe haven gotten slightly out of hand.

"We are my Lady. May I have the honor of introducing us?" Naruto asked, as he tried not to fall back into his old prankster goofball knucklehead persona, and stay focused on his Hokage and Daimyo persona.

She nodded.

"Then with the greatest pleasure, I would like to introduce to you the Lady Hinata, Daughter of Hyuuga Hiashi, and you, my lady. I apologize, but Hinata would never mutter your name as she stated it was sacred to her after your…"

Hinata gently nudged Naruto which quieted him, but not in time as her mother's face paled slightly at the realization of what he was almost allowed to say.

Hinata's mother never losing her slightly rattled composure, the silence unbearable, but to avoid her own rattled senses, she shakily moved forward, and beckoned them to stand fully, and she gently places her hands on Hinata's now tear-filled face, flushed red, and filled with joy which was obvious to the slightly older woman.

While she wanted to believe that this was her daughter, she could not allow herself to be fooled. She stepped away, gently releasing Hinata's face. She walked to the center of the large area in front of the main house of the Hyuuga estate, and placed her hands in the traditional Jyuuken stance, as well as her feet in a minuscule version of the main stance for sparring matches to take away a little of the power in training and avoid accidental kills.

Hinata taken aback by the sudden turn of events stood strong in her resolve to prove herself worthy of her mother's eyes. She and Naruto walked forward onto the ancient looking path, which looked far older than the Hyuuga compound.

Once close to her mother, Hinata diverted Naruto to have a seat on the sidelines as this was something she had to do.

"I do not wish to fight you Kaa-Sama. I am here to help save lives. Please do not make me fight you… a..anyone b..but you…"

Hinata's mother had rarely ever seen such compassion in a Hyuuga's eyes, and apparently, she was not the only one who noticed as a very familiar face appeared beside her long lost mother, as well as other members of the branch house. And as Naruto did not feel any killer intent, he stayed silent, but eyes were on him as well.

The man whom Hinata knew as father stepped forward and said calmly…

"If this woman is truly your child 'Himori'-Sama, then it would beg to reason that she would not want to fight her mother, even in sparring after not seeing her for some time. Plus why should the lady dirty her hands when you have many volunteers who are willing and able?"

"S..so your n..not my Kaa-san, but his twin brother. So you must be Hizashi-Oji-san." Hinata said with a smile her uncle did not understand.

Hinata stood a little taller, and her smile brightened even more as she saw a small baby Neji running around in nothing but his diaper, and allowed a small giggle, thus lightening the mood for everyone.

"I take it you know who that is?" Hizashi asked cautiously and with a touch of humor none the less.

Still in her Jyuuken stance, as was her mother, she answered again, with fewer tears, and a bright smile. "The Hyuuga genius, and my dear, precious cousin Hyuuga Neji. He made jonin at the age of fifteen."

That news nearly floored Hizashi, but he allowed a small smirk to appear on his face.

"I am not the strongest of our clan. I was to be heir, but father and the elders always thought I was too kind and weak to lead, so someone else was chosen, but I did not give up training and with the help of my friends, I did become stronger. I became strong so that I could protect the ones I love, and I am here for that very reason. Hizashi – Oji-San, I would be honored if you would face me in this spar, but only if the lady Homori-san, no. Kaa-sama agrees."

Himori releases her stance and joins Naruto on the side on the stoop and gives Hinata one requirement; "If you are of the main house, then do not use the hand seal to release our family's birthright."

Hinata nodded, and even though it is a quite a bit more of a chakra drain to do so, it is a sign of being a member of the main house for members to be taught to do so.

Hinata did as she was bidden to do, and Hyuuga Himori nodded her acceptance. Hizashi entered into his stance.

"If anything happens to her outside of a traditional Hyuuga spar, I will take it very personally," Naruto warned, and for the first time, Hyuuga Himori and the rest of the Hyuuga clan felt the immense power behind those words. The killer intent only flared for a brief moment, but it was enough to ensure his words were taken at face value. Those words being "Fuck with her, I will end you."

Himori was not unused to threats to her life and to her friends and family as they were a shinobi clan. However, she had to ask;

"Why do you care about her so much? I know you were Hokage if the stories are to be believed and even made a member of the Daimyo's family."

Hinata and Hizashi were now in a full blown full contact Jyuuken match with Hinata vastly overpowered and outclassed.

Eventually, she began to incorporate some of the Goken (Strong Fist) techniques she began learning from Maito Gai and Rock Lee, and then some of the Senjutsu techniques Naruto began teaching her based off of his own studies to become a toad sage. Hizashi was becoming winded and eventually had no choice but to push himself further, but he also had to remember that at least for now she is an ally.

Naruto having watched the fight for a few moments answered Himori simply;

"She is my beloved. Hiashi treated her like trash as did Neji until she started showing that her 'will of fire' would incinerate anyone who threatened someone she loved. She would defy fate and become stronger, and she did. She is to become my wife. Hiashi already gave his blessing in our timeline. I just hope that he is not his same arrogant, selfish, uncaring self. The one Hinata had to grow up with. Please take note that as my beloved, if any harm comes to her-not even the combined might of my father, the Yondaime, the Sandaime, and the Sanin will prevent me from exacting retribution tenfold over," Said with a slight venom.

Himori was both surprised, and impressed at the cold determination this young man had in protecting her 'daughter,' but Naruto's words also stung Himori as well as made her lift her head a little higher in pride at how her daughter had someone there for her to help her grow and to become strong as is evident in still standing after ten minutes of fighting Hizashi who is almost as strong as Hiashi. But she wondered if Hiashi would raise the issue that she became stronger using other styles outside of her family's own Jyuuken.

Hinata ducked underneath her uncle's forward strike, spinning around the move gracefully, and pulled her two fists to her sides as Hizashi tried to finish the match by shooting compressed air out of his palms like large bullets. Hinata dodged the first two, then propelled herself forward with a speed she did not know she possessed. Chakra formed around her hands and the visage of a lion appeared on both. She smashed her original technique into Hizashi's air bullets, obliterating them, coming nearly face to lion's face as she stopped right before his face, and leaped back again.

Hizashi decided now was as good a time as any to try his new technique. He slowed his heart rate, then after a few seconds took off toward Hinata. He ducked below her strike, but struck upward towards her midsection, and channeled a wide dispersal not to hurt her, but to knock the wind out of her. His aim perfect, and he called out during the execution of the move;

"Kaiten: Breaching Heaven's gate!" Thrusting his hands just enough to knock her back without touching her.

Hinata is caught by surprise but was not caught completely unaware. She placed a tight coil of chakra around her midsection. Although she was winded, she was not as completely helpless as she led her opponent to believe.

"You did well young one. It would not do you dishonor to admit defeat. Do you surrender?"

Hinata's head down, she glances at Naruto who in turn smirks.

"N...not J..just yet Hizashi-san." A little of her former nervous stutter continuing to plague her again now.

She flipped back several feet landing on a tree branch, placed her hands at her side as she did for her 'Twin Lion Fist,' but open palmed. She moves forward and danced around her uncle's attacks and using the Senjutsu style defense, but the Hyuuga's Jyuuken's grace and elegance. As Hizashi entered into her divination... Hinata's hands started glowing, and two circular forms started to appear, one in each hand. To show she was still only sparring as the area filled with concerned looked, Hinata soared back and planted her hands into the ground, and called out'

"Double Barrel Rasengan!"

The ground exploded upward in front of her, in the same fashion that Naruto did against Temari and the girls a few years ago in that capture the flag game. Hinata had been watching he realized, and shook his head with a small smile. His ever loving stalker. He couldn't help but to find it endearing, despite being slightly creepy.

Hizashi placed his hands up in surrender, and they both deactivated their dojutsu and lowered their respective fighting stances.

They both bowed to each other, then to Himori. Himori stood up and walked over to Hinata and did the unexpected. She embraced her daughter, and Hinata's eyes filled with tears she was no longer able to hold back. A warmness in her heart she thought she would never feel again.

The branch members who were present began cheering and clapping louder than what was normally acceptable behavior for a Hyuuga, but a family member had come home, and it was cause to celebrate.

A moment later Hyuuga Hiashi stepped out of the building where Naruto and Himori had just been sitting moments prior. He looks to Hinata and asks;

"When are you born?"

"D..December 27...Otou-Sama"

"That gives us 8 months to prepare. You knew you were pregnant Himori?" He asked of his betrothed.

"I just found out yesterday and did not want to trouble you after such a long mission. I went to get checked after hearing the rumor of a possible Hyuuga from the future who was around the age our child would have been."

To Himori and Hinata, "Come. We have much to discuss," He fights back a scowl at having to address the young man his sharp ears heard make such a proclamation only minutes earlier and use the eastern term as Naruto's station had not be officially decided yet by the Daimyo.

"Thank you for escorting my daughter home. I shall see to her safety Duke-Sama." Said with a stiff bow, and walks away with Hinata and Himori in tow.

Hinata looked to Naruto with a small smile and he caught up with her and grabs her hand and gives it a small squeeze. A small spark appeared between them as their hands touched, catching them both off guard, but it was not painful. Pleasant even. Hinata jumped up and gave Naruto a brief hug, then caught up to her father and mother as she whispered back..;

"You really did reunite me with my family," She said almost happily before remembering. "Almost all of them." Remembering Hanabi.

Naruto turned away from her and slowly walked away from his love to let her reintegrate into her old and new family. He couldn't help but to smile and allow a mellowness to flow over him before he realized he had made his own mother waiting to meet him. Upon realization of his error, only two words came to mind...

"Oh shit!" and the next was; "Sage Mode." As two clones he had following him hidden away already in sage mode released and allowed him access to the natural energy they had been storing for him to transform into his sage form.

Naruto rushed through Konoha's rooftops at speeds that impressed the Yondaime who had looked up to see his son rushing toward his estate. Namikaze Minato caught up to his son and Naruto stopped as he felt his father's presence quickly closing in and turned to see his father now standing behind him.

"Not bad kid. You might outrun me someday."

"I was escorting Hinata to her family's home to show them that she is precious to me and should they harm her, they will not like my response," Said with the same venom as when he explained hit, but tried to cool his emotions as he could see the look of concern from his father.

"I'm sorry Oto-San." Naruto tried using a slightly less formal greeting.

Minato nodded his okay to continue.

"It just took me a very long time to get to the point where I even had people I wanted to protect. I became Hokage to be acknowledged by my peers and more importantly to protect them. Hinata has always been there for me and I was so blind it took her jumping in the way of a madman and professing her love to me on the battlefield to that man and refused to let him take a step closer to me. It took me years to come to terms with what had happened. I didn't even know if she still felt the same way, but I took a chance, and she is still standing by my side. Her Will of Fire to protect one's comrade and loved one is what makes her so formidable. Mentally, physically, and spiritually."

Minato smiled and placed a hand on his son's shoulder.

"It's okay Naruto. We'd better go through. Your mom will kill both of us if we are any later. I came out in hopes of finding you before she came out and destroyed half the village.

"Is she really as scary as the legends about her seem?"

"Scarier when she is angry." Minato cringed which made Naruto do the same.

They both took off at high speed, this time Minato having slightly more trouble keeping up with his son without his Hiraishin which Naruto was dying to see in action.

Naruto stopped suddenly again.

"Hey... I was wondering... Can you show me your Hiraishin? I have been dying to see it since we made it back, but we didn't really seem to ever be in a place where I could ask you."

Minato shrugged and disappeared in a yellow flash. Naruto was left slack-jawed, but he regained his composure and rushed the rest of the way to his family's home. 'His family,' he thought.

He slowly walked in past the gate and knocked on the door. A beautiful Red haired woman opened, and Naruto's eyes watered, and he could see himself in her eyes, her face. He could do nothing but fall into her arms, her embrace warm. He thought that he would be able to contain himself more so than Hinata did, but he had not already had a chance to meet his mother in his subconscious as he did for his father.

"Na..Naruto-Kun. My precious son. I get to meet the man you will become before you are even born." She said with a gentleness that surprised him.

"I have such a beautiful Kaa-Sama with such beautiful red hair."

Minato heard what his son said and smiled. He knew that his son had just said the right thing.

He stepped away from her, and she stepped away from him just momentarily then she smiled, using her sleeve to wipe the tears away from both their eyes.

Naruto walks into the house and sat beside his obviously slightly pregnant mother. He tried to speak but is stopped by his mother who places a hand on his knee and said, "There have now only been two in my life that has ever called my hair beautiful. Minato, my loving husband. And now you. My son. In Sage mode!" She realized.

"Yeah." Naruto scratched the back of his head a little. Then much more seriously... "I have come back in time with my friends to help build up the biggest military force the shinobi world has ever known. We will need the help of other nations as well which is the reason we did not kill those on the field of battle when we first arrived."

Naruto braced himself, and Kushina and Minato realized this and braced themselves as well.

"Obito Uchiha is not dead like you all believe him to be. He is a masked man who will show up here on the night of my birth to rip Karama, the Kyuubi no Yoko out of your mom."

That revelation shook Kushina and Minato to the bone. But she nodded for Naruto to continue.

"Uchiha Obito returned to Konoha with a vengeance. He took control of Kurama with the Mangekyo Sharingan he somehow activated. Word got to me after I became Hokage that it was on Danzo's orders that the Uchiha not be involved with the battle as they might use Kurama to their advantage. That did not sit well with them and a coup was hatched. Six years later the Uchiha were slain by Itachi Uchiha on Danzo's orders except for his younger brother Sasuke whom he swore worst than death upon any Konoho shinobi who ever tried to bring harm to Sasuke. Itachi was a missing-nin, but always secretly helped protect Konoha nin from afar. It is believed that Obito came back and helped him to accomplish the slaying. If we are to have their might in an upcoming future battle, they must be allowed to help in the containment of Kurama." To Minato "Sarutobi-Hiruzen-Sama ordered Mom and his wife be taken to a secret location for the birth, but Obito's Sharingan allowed him Kimui. A teleportation jutsu and the Sharingan allowed him to track them down. Mom had Kurama ripped from her dad!" Getting more and more excited.

Minato slapped his face slightly, in hopes of calming the 'once and future king' down.

"Thank you," Naruto said before continuing more calmly. "Mom helped you to contain Kurama before you summoned Shinigami sama..." He closed his eyes and then spoke again. "You both died saving the village. True heroes. But you placed Kurama in me and half in you before dying as you could ask no villager to make a sacrifice you would not be willing to do yourself. You put some of your essences into me Oto-san."

"Some of me too Naruto. I feel some of my chakra sealed into a personality lock jutsu." Kushina added slowly.

"Lift up your shirt Naruto," Minato commanded, leaving no room for argument.

Kushina and Minato gasped as this was the one part of the story that they had hoped was not true as Uchiha Sasuke had already given some of the accounts mentioned.

"I will not allow you two to die again this time. I will protect you as will my friends. We have a plan in place. We will not allow Obito to do as he pleases. Also. My sensei or not. Hatake Kakashi must not know about this yet. He is not prepared for such a burden."

Minato just nodded. Sat back down on the other side of Kushina, and placed his hands in a position Naruto sometimes does to think.

'This is going to be a long next few months.' Minato pondered silently.

Hyuuga Residence

Hinata was against a wall fighting with every ounce of her being against having the branch house seal placed on her. Her mother also being held back as was Hiashi.

"You are weak Hiashi. I should have never stepped down." An older man backhanded Hiashi causing him to fly backward. His eyes taking on the Hyuuga's notable physical trait. "She is obviously a fraud sent here to insert herself and destroy us from within. Look around you. Almost half of the main house agrees with me, and the branch members are of no concern. I have also enlisted my protege Danzo who took over Root a few years ago. I'm sure you remember him. The one strong enough when you were too timid for the job...

Danzo stepped out in front and removes his Root Anbu Mask. Face blank and unreadable.

"Now be silent or you will be marked next and a more controllable clan head will be chosen.

"I have accepted that this young woman is my daughter. If she was an infiltrator I would have handled it. You have Root come and handle your business for you coward. Are you not man enough to handle your own affairs father!"

That earned him a kick to the face by Danzo who had grown tired of his 'noise.'

"Do not concern yourself with the rabble father," Danzo stated. This earned him looks from all present including his Root.

"Don't look so surprised. I took on my Mother's last name, but I am a Hyuuga as evidenced by this." His black eyes bulged out and the veins on his face revealed a discolored Byakugan, but a Byakugan all the same.

"Would you like the honor Danzo?" 'Hyuuga Hikumo' asked his more loved son.

"It would be my honor father." As he began walking over to where Hinata still struggled.

Hinata broke free and released the chakra enhanced weights below her clothing. She ran past, jumped on, and flew in her escape attempt, but was not quite fast enough to make it out of the front door. She was kicked back several feet as she screamed out.

"Naruto!"

Namikaze residence a few seconds later-

Naruto had just finished with the first portion of his mother's amazing cooking but shot up out of his seat immediately.

"What's wrong Naruto?" Kushina immediately asked.

"My Hime. Hinata's in danger!"

Naruto ran out the front door followed by his mother and father.

"Stay at least fifteen feet away from me. KURAMA-Sama, CAN YOU HEAR ME?" Naruto pleaded with his roommate shocking the heaven out of his parents.

NO NEED TO YELL GAKI. FOR THE RECORD, ADDING THAT HONORIFIC DOES WONDERS FOR OUR RELATIONSHIP. WHAT DO YOU WANT? Kurama snarkily asked Naruto in his mind.

"Do you plan to honor your debt?"

I DO. I KNOW OF YOUR MATE. KNOW THAT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER ALLOWED SOMEONE TO GO INTO BIJUU MODE WITH ME. CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY PUP. WORK FAST. THIS MODE WILL NOT LAST LONG. NOW CLOSE YOUR EYES AND DON'T FIGHT IT. IT WILL NOT FEEL MALICIOUS LIKE MY CHAKRA NORMALLY DOES. BUT YOU MUST STAY FOCUSED AND NOT LET YOUR ANGER OVERTAKE YOU OR I WILL BEGIN TO TAKE OVER WHETHER INTENTIONAL OR NOT.

Naruto stopped completely and allowed the chakra to begin coming from his seal. He quickly remembered that there are two seal masters behind him.

"Don't interfere. This is intentional. Kurama and I are becoming one. At least for a few moments."

Naruto had spoken just in time as Minato had pulled out a paper seal to stop Kurama's chakra from coming out.

Within three seconds Naruto was glowing yellow with a slightly feral look and markings including the Uzumaki crest from the waterfall village.

"I'm coming Hinata!"

Naruto was gone within the blink of an eye.

To be continued when I get a chance.

I am going back to my Young Justice Story and Power Ranger Stories for now. I might come back to this story earlier if I get at least one chapter done in each of those.
