Urges

Chapter Two

"Devil with a Halo"

Shina viciously punched and kicked the training post situated in training ground six, which was her training ground as a Genin. It was the place the Silver Shadow went to blow off steam, as Ino knew, and by Kami did Shina need it. The blonde winced as a savage roundhouse split the post in two, Shina seething about 'Kiba and his stupid big mutt mouth'. Ino felt a little bad. The night had started fine, they were getting drinks, and then, Team Seven walked in.

And everything went straight to hell.

{1 HOUR EARLIER}

"One Blood Moon for me," Shina ordered. Her two blonde friends eyed her curiously. The Blood Moon was an incredibly strong drink, and those who ordered it were either trying to start a fight, or forget a tragedy. "Um, Shina?" Temari asked gently. "You okay?" Shina smiled at the concern of her friend. "I'm fine Temari. Just a bit agitated at Papa." "A bit?" Ino asked, arching a pristine eyebrow. Shina sighed. "A lot. You know, he asked 'the boyfriend' question today and shit got weird." Ino's eyes went into Yamanaka Gossip mode, and she rested her chin in her hand and crossed her legs. "Oh, do tell!"

As Shina recounted the story, she caught a glimpse of bright blonde hair, followed by a flash of pink, then a splash of raven black. Team Seven. Shina kept the story going, hoping Ino wouldn't notice. What she forgot to account for, however, was for Naruto to end up sitting right behind her.

"Hey, Shina-chan!"

Shina went rigid. She and Naruto in a bar, with INO YAMANAKA in the vicinity, would never be a good mix. Still she responded kindly. "Sup, idiot." She turned and noticed Sakura and Sasuke in a booth nearby, making doe eyes at each other. Shina felt bad for the blonde. He was obviously third-wheeling, and felt uncomfortable, so he sought out the nearest friend to not be left out, which happened to be Shina Hatake. At that point Ino decided to leave the two Jonin alone. "I'm going to use the restroom, Shina," she smiled, after saying hello to Naruto. The blonde girl then zipped off before Shina could protest, then, out of nowhere, the Yamanaka half entered her mind.

"Don't screw this up, Shina."

"What do you mean? And what did I say about randomly jumping in my head?!"

"Nevermind that! This is your big chance! Flirt with him a little, see how he responds."

"I- I can't ok?! What if I say something cheesy or stupid or-"

"Confidence, girl! Confidence is key! Whatever you say, just… say it with confidence."

Then the connection was silent.

"Uh, Shina-chan? You okay?" Naruto asked. "You spaced out for a minute there." Shina snapped to attention. "Oh yeah, I'm fine! Just was… thinking about my dad. I want to get him something as a surprise, and I don't know what to get. You two are close, right? Any ideas?"

"Nice save, Shina. Very smooth."

"GOD DAMMIT INO GET OUT OF HERE!"

Naruto smiled fondly at the mention of his sensei. "Well, aside from Icha Icha, Kakashi is a simple man. I'd say get him anything that is more thought provoking and not just shiny, he'll love it. Plus it'd be from his little Hana no Shina." Shina flushed red at the mention of her childhood pet name from her father. A memory flashed through her mind.

Shina was thirteen, standing in front of her mirror, getting ready for the Chunin Exams. She ruffled her hair; seeing it fall into its natural pattern, Shina smiled. Her father was at her door, looking on with a small, proud smile. Shina turned and smiled at him.

"Well, papa? How do I look?"

Kakashi chuckled at his daughter's confidence. She was the spitting image of him, besides her mother's lips and honey-colored eyes. He knelt down, scooping his daughter into one of his uncommon, but not rare, hugs.

"Like a real Chunin, my little flower."

.

"Shina Hatake, I now pronounce you a Jonin of the Hidden Leaf. May you wear you vest with pride, and your Will of Fire burn ever brighter."

The words from her father nearly brought tears to Shina's eyes, especially knowing she'd made him proud, evident by the lone tear shining in his eye. Kakashi had watched his daughter struggle and fight to earn this title, holding her head high all the while.

Leaving the room after shrugging on her new vest, Shina stopped, confused as she felt a slightly heavy box inside her vest. Reaching for it, she pulled out a small white box. It had a note on the bottom:

"Great job, Shina! I know you'll be an incredible Jonin!"

"Welcome to the Jonin club, kid. I'm proud of you."

"Keep at it, Shina-chan! Who knows? You might be the next Kage. After me of course, haha!"

-Team Seven

Shina smiled, opening the box to find a brand new headband. Pulling it out gently and inspecting it, she found that kanji had been engraved onto the back.

Hana no Shina.

Tears brimming, they quickly dissipated as Shina realized something. Did that mean Team Seven knew her father's nickname for her? Oh, she was SO gonna kill him!

A voice in her head snapped Shina back to the present.

"Aw, isn't that ADORABLE!"

"INO I SWEAR UPON KAMI'S NAME-"

Shina smiled at Naruto, deciding she would give Ino a good taste of Incineration Style later. "Thanks, Naruto," she said, leaning into him a bit. "I knew I could count on you." Naruto blushed a bit, giving a nervous chuckle. "Thanks, Shina-chan." Shina then gave him a fake icy glare. "But for your personal safety, never call me that again." The two laughed. Shina decided to then drink a bit of her Blood Moon. It didn't take much for the Jonin to get a tad tipsy. Feeling her self-consciousness ebb away as the potent alcohol rushed through her system, Shina smirked at the blonde.

"So, Naruto, what are you doing here alone?"

Naruto stiffened a bit and gave a light, strained laugh. "I'm not alone. I'm here with you, aren't I?" Shina laughed. "So, what are we on a date now?" She smirked as the great Naruto Uzumaki flushed red. Shina leaned into him more, pushing her impressive chest into his arm. "Not that I would mind if we were."

"KURAMA HELP!" Naruto shouted internally. The fox did nothing more than snicker within his mind.

"Don't say things like that," Naruto laughed, sounding more confident than he felt. "I might just consider the offer." Shina blinked, stunned. Did he actually mean that? Naruto immediately went tight-lipped, realizing his mistake.

"CRAP DID I SAY THAT OUT LOUD?!"

"Is he… flirting with me?"

Shina smiled, deciding to up her ante as an experiment. "Really? When and where, hotshot?"

"Anytime, and any place."

Shina was once again shocked beyond understanding. If someone had told her she'd score a date at a bar with a guy she actually liked, she would've laughed in their face. "Fine. But first, you're gonna have to give me a reason to be interested."

Naruto began to sputter. He hadn't expected-

"Let me help, Kit."

A subtle surge of Kurama's chakra raced through Naruto, awakening something… beastly in him. He did the absolute impossible, really. He turned in his seat, cupped her face in his hands…

And captured Shina Hatake in a searing kiss.

For Shina, time stopped. Naruto Uzumaki was kissing her. And it wasn't some quick peck; some hollow promise of better things. It was deep and passionate, a bit messy, and downright animalistic. Her eyes widened as Shina felt his tongue invade, twisting around hers with reckless abandon. The silver-haired woman was torn between wanting to slap the whiskers off him for such a bold move, and sinking into the whirlpool of lust that was now apparent.

Mmmm… he tastes good…

Yep, definitely sinking.

Her face flushed a brilliant crimson, Shina decided to finally respond, making the one sided kiss turn into a battleground of lips, saliva, and pure wanting. The two had their eyes closed, and didn't notice eyes on them, drawn from the occasional moan from the woman now getting kissed out of her rightful mind. Ino had returned from the restroom, smirking at her two lonely friends finally stopping whatever courtship rituals they were doing.

About damn time.

Now, no one noticed a group of older shinobi walk in the bar, so focused on the kissing individuals they were, and if they had noticed, maybe one of them could have warned the two adults. But, alas, it was not to be.

And it just so happened, being that the village's biggest loudmouth's mouth was currently… occupied, the village's second biggest loudmouth, his face marred with obscene levels of shock, had to drunkenly yell out the obvious.

"NO WAY!" Kiba shouted. "NARUTO'S KISSING SHINA HATAKE!"

The bar went silent as a strong killing intent flooded through the bar, fueled by fatherly rage and indignation. The two lovebirds even ended their kiss right on time, Shina moaning a bit, much to her father's displeasure. Naruto went rigid at the sound of a lightning blade hitting his poor ears, and he felt immeasurable amounts of fear.

"Kakashi-sensei…"

"Naruto," Kakashi growled. "I'm going to be nice and give you ten seconds."

Needing no further prompting, Naruto bolted.

Shina attempted to reason with her irate father, putting her hand out to stop him. "Papa! What the hell are you doing?!"

She promptly shrank back at the look in her father's visible eye, it was clear he was fueled by a parental urge to protect his daughter's innocence. "I will talk to you later. It seems we have much to discuss."

The Copycat Ninja then sped off, the sound of the Chidori fading into the night.

Ino came to stand beside her childhood friend, giving her a sympathetic look.

"Way to end your first kiss, huh?"

"Leave it to Papa to do something like this."

"Was it worth it?"

"Oh most definitely. I'm pissed now and I'm headed to TG6. You coming?"

"Of course."

"Good. Oh, and Ino?"

"Hmm?"

"Incineration Style: Dragon Spirit Flame!"

0202020202020202020202020202020202020202

Ino winced at the memory of dodging Shina's searing hot flames. It was a miracle there was no Uchiha in her blood. Incineration Style was a style of Shina's creation, and the flames were WHITE. A few seconds of contact with the flames could reduce an arm down to bone, and bone to cinders. Ino watched as Shina had begun a fight with a Shadow Clone, and won surprisingly quickly. "Hey Ino!" the Jonin called. "Let's spar! I have to stay true to my word about the punishment of jumping into my mind."

Ino shivered at the way the last part was said. It was way too sinister.

"Good luck, Naruto," Ino muttered, dropping into a stance.

"This one's a handful."
