"Special Kunoichi Rearming?"
"Sounds cool" Naruto said "What is it?"
"It's a special extra class for kunoichi who are now or still suitable for certain types of missions" The cheerful shinobi said "Lady Fifth made it three years ago, and it is ready to kick off now"
"I see..." Hinata said as she held the mysterious and regal-looking brochure/invitation with her name on it, "It could be one of her acts into 'empowering women', Naruto-kun"
Naruto and Hinata were in the middle of a silent stroll when suddenly an energetic young man with a bag of brochures in the middle of a D-ranked mission approached them.
"I was very lucky that I got you as one of the recipients, Hyūga-sama!" The boy laughed "You're one of the easiest people to find these days!"
Hinata blushed, knowing exactly why. It had been no secret that she and Naruto-kun had been hanging out frequently for the past year or so. But not only that, she really was an attention catcher since she was the eldest daughter and an heir of one of the most esteemed clans in the entire world.
"Th-Thank you" She said as she dismissed the young messenger.
"So?" Naruto asked as the Hyūga opened the brochure, "What does it say?"
"You are invited to attend in the Fifth Hokage's special training regimen, miss Hyūga Hinata!" She silently read in her mind, "The 'Special Kunoichi Rearming' is a special extra class exclusive to extremely desirable looking and determined kunoichi such as you. We will be rearming beautiful kunoichi with powerful weapons that shall open your doors into special missions. In the special art of-"
The blonde looked at the short bluenette with worry as her eyes widen in horror as her face turned paler than usual.
"Seduction"
"E-EEEEEEHHH?!?!?!"
"I-I can't d-do it"
Ino smirked as she flipped a piece of meat from the grill, "Oh, Hinata. Grow up, it's gonna be fun"
"B-But-" "No buts!" The Yamanaka said as she pointed her chopsticks across the table towards the Hyūga, "It's a very special opportunity to get experience and become a deadlier kunoichi! Ain't I right, Sakura?"
The four kunoichi of Konoha 12 are at Yakiniku Q, eating lunch together.
"I have no idea what you two are talking about" Sakura said as she looked at her friend beside her, making Tenten gasp and ask from across her "Don't tell me you didn't get invited!"
"Does that mean you're going, Tenten-san?" Hinata shyly asked as she picked on her uneaten share, the brunette shook her head with a smile, "It's not my cup of tea, Hinata. I know who I am, and I don't want to enter that side of the Kunoichi life. I'd much rather kill off my enemies with my weapons than to give them a little satisfaction"
"You're such a stick in the mud" Ino said as she crossed her arms "You're looking all pretty with your new mission gear! Flaunt it, woman!"
"Fine, then next time, I'd be going back to my old style" Tenten shrugged nonchalantly "I'm just keeping up with the latest fashion, but I must say, I prefer my old gear"
"Someone fill me up, please" Sakura said in a slightly annoyed tone.
"W-Well... Tsunade-sama s-started this p-program called the 'Special Kunoichi Rearming'..." Hinata said with a very red face, making the Haruno lift an eyebrow and ask "And what's it about?"
"W-Well- uh- I, um... I-It's... I-It's-" "IT'S A FUCKIN' SEX EDUCATION PROGRAM, SAKURA!" Ino suddenly snapped as she stood from her spot "WE'RE GONNA LEARN HOW TO BE EXTREMELY SEXY AND SEDUCE PEOPLE!"
Some drunk customers whooped and whistled at the blonde's sudden outburst.
The pinkette suddenly slammed her fist and screamed "How dare you! Are you telling me that I'm not sexy that's why I didn't get invited?!?!"
"A-Ano, Sakura-san, you're very prett-"
"I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING! YOU MADE THAT ENTIRE THING UP!"
"SHANARO!! THAT'S WHAT IT FELT LIKE!"
"U-Um..."
"YOU KNOW WHAT?! THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I THINK! IT'S SURPRISING HOW SENSITIVE YOU ARE WITH SUCH A SMALL CHEST!"
Hinata took a sip of her cup to try and calm down so that she could intervene, but she just felt really conflicted, "B-But I'm s-s-still s-seventeen" She sobbed a little, then squeaking out "A-And I-I don't want to engage i-in sex outside m-marriage!"
"-WELL THE PROGRAM WAS BASICALLY NAMED AFTER THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN TO HAVE EVER LIVED! S.K.R.! SA-KU-RA!" "IT WAS PURELY COINCIDENTAL!" "YOU'RE COINCIDENTAL!"
Tenten panicked and hugged the crying girl, "H-Hey, hey! It's okay, Hinata! No one's forcing you!"
"MIND YOU! I WAS PLANNED!" "THE PLAN WAS A BUST!" "HELL YEAH I HAVE A BUST!"
"W-What would Neji-nii think of me?" The Hyūga sobbed, "W-What would Naruto-kun think of me?!"
"I HAVE A FULLER ASS!" "YEAH! AS BIG AS YOUR FOREHEAD!" "YOU TAKE THAT BACK!"
Tenten sweat dropped, then her eyes landed on the glass pitcher with the clear liquid inside, she suddenly froze, realizing what was going on.
Sakura had been drinking since she got here since she was exhausted from work, and Ino occasionally drunk between her eating. Tenten, being the nineteen year old she is, who also was the one who got there first and ordered, forgot that she asked for an entire pitcher of sake since she was a heavy drinker.
And it seems like Ino and Sakura got drunk, and they are 'angry drunks'.
Then Tenten spotted the cup of her crying friend, which was still half full, and then almost laughed. It seems like that Hinata was a very light drinker and that she's a 'sad drunk'.
And then the brunette paled when she realized. Only she and Sakura, who was already 18, were the only ones legal to drink, while both Ino and Hinata are still 17, technically minors.
"I'm such a terrible person, Tenten-san!" "INO-PIG IS MUCH WORSE!" "WELL YOU'RE THE WORST, FOREHEAD!!!"
"Eh-hem"
Tenten slowly turned towards an angry manager.
It was finally June, and the first day of summer.
Ino couldn't help but admire every woman inside the large room, each with a very beautiful physique and were all very presentable.
She thinks the oldest person here was at most 30 years old, but she still looked very beautiful!
The blonde couldn't help but feel very proud of herself, here she was, a young and beautiful maiden, joined with other strong and gorgeous women. She felt like she belonged.
"Ino-san"
Ino gasped as she turned around in surprise, "Hinata! I thought you said you weren't coming!"
"I know, but..." Hinata said "My sister and father were both very much pleased that I was among of the few chosen to participate in this. But that wasn't the reason I decided to join"
There was suddenly a beautiful sparkle in the young Hyūga's eyes.
"Eversince I was little, I was bullied because of my eyes... But when Neji-nii-san finally came back to me and supported me... I finally became proud of my eyes" She confessed "And eversince, I'm not afraid to look up and show them. People then often thought I was beautiful because of them, and I hardly believed them. But now... This is just proof that I truly have been changing for the better"
Ino smiled proudly at her beloved friend.
"I know my assets, and I want to know how to take advantage of it. I know I look fragile, and I know I look like I was meant only as a decor" Hinata said with a proud smile "And because of that, Ino-san, I want to learn how to deceive those who does bad and let them put their guards down! I'm not the strongest, and I look the weakest, so this time! For sure, I want to be surprising, too!"
Hyūga Hinata is a beautiful princess of the Hyūga clan of pure pedigree. A demeanor as gentle as a feather, and strength as strong as lions. Ino could see it, her friend was just like a flower. So beautiful and looks so fragile, but with enough care, it could stand through strong winds and even be the first one to stand after a storm.
Placing her hands on both the blunette's shoulders, a motivating gesture the blonde often did to encourage a certain pinkette, she smiled at her and said "You can do it, Hinata!"
"Yeah!" Hinata nodded, "Let's do it, Ino-san! Together!"
It was a month long program with different guest lecturers every now and then.
The chosen group of kunoichi of Konoha were taught how to deceive, to sneak, to secretly interrogate, and more.
The program wasn't as dreadful as Hinata thought it would be, but instead, staying true to its name, it rearmed her with new weapons. Powerful to say the least.
Some might say that it is shameful to use your body to deceive. And most will say kunoichi are weaker than shinobi. But Hinata's not there to prove them wrong, for as long as she is thought of as weak, it's her strongest weapon.
She isn't the most confident in doing new stuff, and she definitely isn't the most confident about her over-all gentle personality as a kunoichi. But she sure as hell is confident about her skills, and she won't brag or bring it up, because she knows, being underestimated is her new-found specialty.
"Oh, wow"
Kiba stopped on his tracks as Hinata smiled up at both her teammates, "Kiba-kun! Shino-kun! I haven't seen you two in a while!"
"Well, look at you!" Kiba laughed "You're like a whole new version of yourself!"
"Knowing what the program was about, Team 8 is gonna get a lot more different types of missions" Shino said with a proud smile "We are proud of you, Hinata. Why? Because you didn't limit yourself"
"Wow" The Inuzuka howled "That's the shortest speech you've ever given, Shino! You're getting rusty, man!"
"I'm home..." Sakura yelled with exhaustion in her voice, kicking off her boots and putting those aside.
She yawned as she made her way to the stares, "Oh, Sakura!"
Kizashi walked up to her with a wide grin, "A letter for you!"
"Hm?" The younger pinkette tilted her head as she accepted it, opening the little envelope.
Pulling out a piece of paper, she slowly read.
"S..."
Her eyes slowly widen.
"K..."
Then it twitched.
"R"
An invitation.
"I WAS INVITED ALL ALONG?!?!" Sakura screamed, "WHY DIDN'T YOU GIVE THIS TO ME MONTHS AGO?!?!"
"Don't raise your voice, young lady" Kizashi said with a wave of a finger, "And, because... I forgot"
"THAT'S IT?!"
Bonjour! Author here!
First off, announcement. You might have noticed by now, so I'll say it.
We're nearing the part where "The Last: Naruto the Movie" will occur! Yay!
I hope I was subtle into developing the characters to the point of how mature they were during the movie, and I hope it wasn't too sudden.
Was the development too long? Or was it too fast? Or was it just right?
Anyway! Here, I wanted to use the question that I had, "Why was Toneri too easily fooled by Hinata? How come he didn't suspect that she was after the Tenseigan not until it was almost too late?"
We can't deny that Hinata looked drastically different than her old attire and we couldn't have imagined she would wear it at the beginning of the season. So, I thought, hey! She's a kunoichi, and her body is a weapon.
We're almost there, guys!
