Of Blood and Death
Naruto Blood Plus Crossover
Chapter 37
Hinata slammed the front door open storming in like fire was hot on her tail.
"Akamaru!" She screamed her voice filled with trepidation. A White ball of fur flew into the room .His nails scratching the hard wood flooring as he tried to stop. Skidding to a stop in front of her as frantic barks and yips flowed from him.
"Akamaru what happened? He proceeded to bark even more incisively.
"Slow down I can't understand you." His bark became even more frantic as he circled around her then Kai.
Unaware of the others who had joined them in the sitting room.
"Poison…what poison? Dammit Akamaru slow down!" Running a shaky hand through her hair. As the pup slowed his barks. Hinata gasped her hand going to her pocket.
"Hinata?" Kai voice rang as he stood by her. His eyes widened as he watched her whip out her scroll and release her blood sword.
"Kai…Akamaru…you… poison." "Her words a jumble as she placed her hand on his chest. He felt it tremble. His hand going to cover it , watching as a small tear fell from her pearl eyes sliding down her cheek.
"Wait a minute you can understand the dog?" Lewis gasped dropping the bag of chips he held.
"Shit!" Hinata gasped dropping her head on Kai's shoulder.
"Lewis let it go!" Kai nearly growled out as he felt her body tremble as he wrapped his arms protectively around her.
"Hinata you speak dog?" Lulu questioned earning a glare from Kai "What" She shrugged her shoulders innocently.
"Hinata?" Saya frowned clearly upset.
"Leave it be…Saya!" Kai yelled heatedly. "This is non of your fucking concern."
"Kai watch your tone." Haji scolded brusquely.
"Make me!" Kai's old temper flaring out. Seeing Hinata so frightened terrifying him.
"Could you all kindly tell me what the hell is going on here." David asked walking in the room. His eyes wandered from Kai to Haji then to the rest in the room.
"It was poison." Hinata mumbled into Kai chest her hand clutching the fabric of his blue shirt. "Akamaru could smell it."
"Would someone please tell me what she is babbling about?" David's voice rising loudly. "What did Akamaru smell?"
"All I know is Haji…Kai and I had decided to stop for coffee after helping him pick out Saya's ugh…" Moses groaned slightly from the jab in the ribs Lulu had just given him. "I mean finished shopping. When the coffee arrived Akamaru went crazy barking." David gave him a questioning look as if to say he is a dog he is suppose to bark.
"He's right it was not normal dog barking. When Kai tried to take a drink Akamaru dove into him biting his wrist and knocking the drink to the ground. He seemed to go mad! Barking and clawing the table. The dish's crashing all around. He snapped making us all move a safe distance away. Kai finally was able to calm him and the rest you know" Haji finished pulling Saya closer to him a frown still on his chiseled face.
"If I am getting this right Akamaru told you it was poison?" Lulu questioned complete unsure of her own mental stability of believing in a talking dog. She leaned back into Moses reassuring arms.
"Yes! The coffee was poisoned. His sense of smell is sharper then a humans and he is trained to smell poisons. Shino and Kiba spent many days training him in all the different types of poisons."
"Hold on a damn minute. Hinata are you telling me you can understand this dog of your teammates."
David hissed angrily.
"Yes."
"You want to kindly tell me why the fuck I am just now hearing about this? This is something major we could use. Julia needs to…"
Kai couldn't take it anymore he could feel her body shaking in anxiety and fear.
"No!" He growled darkly. "This is the whole reason she didn't tell you. Akamaru isn't one of Julia's experimental science projects. The link between Hinata and him is by a special jutsu. Nothing you can comprehend. It was her team mate Kiba's dieing wish for them to have each other. So David you can just go fuck off right now if you even think of having Julia touch Akamaru!" Hinata looked up at Kai a warmth spreading through her body at the protective words he had spoke. She had no doubts of her faith in this wondrous man. Moving out of his arms he frowned but she gave him a reassuring look before addressing the gathering shield members. Her new family.
"What Kai says is all true. The point in question is that someone deliberately tried to kill Kai and possible Moses and Haji." She watched the gasps and uncertain looks that flew around the room like a spray of shuriken being flung across a room.
"This is not something I would suspect from Diva or this Uchiha. They don't beat around the bush they will come out and attack up front." David replied before dropping quiet in deep thought.
"I thought it was always Saya they were after?" Lulu chimened in.
"Well usually but I think Diva likes to play cat and mouse with anyone she can." Lewis chuckled at his own words.
"Where's Karman? I haven't seen him since this morning." Moses asked running his fingers through Lulu's lavender hair as she leaned into him.
"He went out on reconnaissance. Might have a lead on Diva's location." Hinata perked up hearing this.
"You know where she is?"
"No but we had a few leads to follow up that may pan out." David ran a hand through his graying hair.
"Well it's getting late. Kai from now on I think you should stick around the mansion. I will make sure that someone is guarding the kitchen so we have no concerns of poisoning. " Turning to smirk at Hinata. "Maybe you could ask Akamaru to keep his nose alert and check the mansion."
"I will." She smiled back. Even though David could be a hard ass she knew deep down he truly cared for each and everyone of his family.
"Well now that the drama is over. Girls we have a date with a certain underground hot springs. No boys allowed." Adding the last loudly. Brushing her lavender hair back she walked over tugging a reluctant Hinata from Kai's arms.
"Lulu this is…."
"Tsk tsk Hina don't argue with your sister. I know what's best for you now march. "She pointed to the doorway were Saya was waiting.
"Go ahead. I have to talk with the Moses and look at all these presents I need to start wrapping. " He pointed to the bags piled near the staircase. "Before you say it…No…you can not help." He grinned devishly before whispering in her ear. "Most of them are for you my little Ninja-hime." A shiver ran down her back as warmth pooled between her legs as she felt his lips press against the spot behind her ear moving a few kisses further down her sensitive neck. Taking her sword he gave her lips a sweet kiss.
"I'll see you after your bath." He smiled before taking the stairs two at a time Akamaru following closely behind.
