It's time for A Heart to Heart Girl Talk


Chapter 4

A Heart to Heart Girl Talk

Emerald Forest (Hidden Leaf Village)

Finding a stray log lying out in the scattered patches of trees Hinata sat down and sat Eva down next to her. After a few minutes of silence Eva grew impatient. "Well? What did you want to talk about?" Looking over at her longtime friend Hinata wore a sad smile on her face. "Do you hate me?" Hinata asked simply. Caught completely off guard by this seemingly random question Eva couldn't come up with a proper response. "What?"

"Do you hate me for what happened earlier today? While it was an accident it was a serious blow to our friendship and as your best friend I should have seen all the signs a long time ago." Hinata said in her soft voice, but even now it was more subdued than normal. "What signs? What are you talking about?" Eva said defensively. It was a poor defense and they both knew it. "That you're in love with Naruto. Or should I say you've been in love with him for a long time." Hinata said in a factual tone.

"I…I…I don't know what you're talking about." Eva denied while turning away from Hinata who still had a sad smile on her face. "Eva you don't have to lie to me. But I'm starting to think that it's deeper than what I said. I'm right aren't I?" Hinata pressed when she saw Eva flinch. "You don't know what you're talking about!" Eva raised her voice as she started to tremble. Looking her friend over for a few minutes Hinata came to a conclusion. "You're self-conscious about yourself aren't you?" Hinata spoke up not knowing she hit close to home. "SHUT UP! HOW DARE YOU!" Eva screamed as she sent a blast of water that knocked Hinata off the log she was sitting on. Falling to the ground Hinata whipped the water off her face and looked up to see a giant ice spike floating dangerous above her with an enraged Evangeline standing above her with a furious expression on her face.

"You know nothing at all! Do you know how hard it's been recently? I've always loved him but recently it's starting to change. I want him. Need him. I love him so much but how can he love me back when I'm only five and a half inches tall. I'm not even taller than his hand. I'm tiny and he'll never look at me the same way he looks at the rest of you! All he's ever going to see me as is his partner and other half but never as someone like you. Someone who he can connect with and love!" Eva shouted at Hinata who visibly looked shaken and was taking in Evangeline's verbal lashing.

'She's held this back all this time hasn't she? She's never told anyone not even me.' Hinata though on the verge of tears. By now Evangeline was shedding copious amounts of tears as she cried her frustration out. "You've kept this in all this time. Why didn't you ever tell me?" Hinata asked as she sat back on the log. The ice spike dissipated and turned back into water when Eva started crying. "Why should I? You want him just like I do." Eva retorted.

"Eva we've never out right talked about it or mentioned it but you've always encouraged me to get closer to Naruto, you've even instigated many little accidents and scenes between us over the years so you know I would have encouraged you all the way." Hinata said as she gently placed her hand on top of Eva's whose hand was in her own lap. Eva didn't resist but all the muscles in her body were tense. "Humans are greedy and selfish and they don't like to share! Why would you want to help me?" Eva said indignantly. "And you're not?" Hinata shot back quickly causing Eva to pause in her words. Seeing her subdued Hinata continued. "I know humans are greedy and selfish and we're not perfect; and while I know I'm a good child and I was raised properly I know I am just like any other human. Maybe better than some but I'm not perfect and neither are you." Hinata said getting Eva to shed more tears.

"Maybe it's selfish of me to say this but I want you to be happy with Naruto even more than me, but then again that wouldn't be selfishness now would it?" Hinata drove home her point. Eva was left shaking and gritting her teeth while squeezing her fist tightly. "Damn you Hinata… since when did you become so outspoken? What happened to the shy Hinata?" Eva asked while giving Hinata a mixed looked between amusement and pride. "I have you and Naruto to thank for that." Hinata complimented while rubbing Eva's hand with her finger. A sad chuckle that was trying hard to sound cheerful came from Eva who seemingly relaxed into Hinata's touch. "Cheeky too." Eva through in. "Now I have you to solely take responsibility for that." Hinata shot back with a chuckle getting an honest one back from Evangeline. "I never meant for this to happen." Eva suddenly said after a few minutes of silence.

"I know. Earlier you said that I don't know what it's like to feel self-conscious. You already know that my father has put me down all these years and has pretty much thrown me to the side. He pushed me so hard but when I didn't give him results he threw me to the side and stuck me with Kurenai sensei, and she just started teaching at the academy back then remember? He then focused heavily on Hanabi who also struggled but luckily I was able to be there for her and get her out of the compound as many times as I could. It saved her from becoming cold like him. That's why she's still so shy and innocent now." Hinata said fondly towards the end. "Yeah I like Hanabi the way she is now. Hey remember that time your father made you fight her to see who would receive the training to become the clan heir?" Eva asked excitedly.

"Yeah I remember it like it was yesterday." Hinata commented. "Remember how Naruto and I ran a little late so you ended up fighting against her and you lost on purpose because you hesitated." Eva narrated. Shaking her head yes Hinata smiled at the memory. "Remember how your father was about to pass his judgment when me and Naruto set off all of those flash bombs in the compound and blinded everyone." Eva said with a proud smirk on her face. "Yes I remember. I covered Hanabi's eyes at the last second. Everyone else was flailing around blindly. Father couldn't figure out what was going on so he locked down the entire compound. He completely forgot about our match and the results as he launched an investigation into what happened. It got so bad that the Hokage had to get involved." Hinata choked out as she was trying not to laugh. "Yeah well we snuck into one of the most secure clan compounds in the world without being caught and we managed to ambush them and spring a trap on all of them." Eva said with pride clear in her voice. "To this day father still doesn't know how it happened or by who. No one knows for that matter. No one except us of course." Hinata said with a little mischievous chuck. Some of Evangeline's personality has rubbed off on her over the years and helped her break out of her shell.

Hearing this both girls started to laugh at the ridiculous situation. After a few minutes both girls calmed down and settled into a calm silence. "Look at us laughing and kicking back like nothing happened." Eva spoke up suddenly with a sad chuckle. "Isn't this how it should be between us?" Hinata questioned. "Yeah it should." Eva remarked. "What happened then?" Hinata asked. "I don't know. Somewhere down the line I started to feel jealous but I kept it inside. I didn't like feeling that towards you and Henrietta. It made me feel bad. But I couldn't help it. You guys get to do a lot of stuff with him that I can't do. I'm so small and I can't do anything." Eva said as this time she held back her frustrated tears.

"But think of it this way. You are closer to him than any of us ever will be. The love he has for you is something that none of us will ever come close to having. You hold a place in his heart that neither I nor Henrietta can ever reach. You know more about him then he knows about himself and you definitely know more about him than either of us. Besides you do things with him that me or Henrietta have never done with him or can't do." Hinata said maturely with a soft tone that really got through to the little winter fairy who wanted to cry again at Hinata's words.

"I knew from the very moment I figured out that I liked Naruto that if the future ever allowed it and we somehow got into a relationship that went pass our friendship that I wouldn't just be entering a relationship with him but with you as well. I've known forever… for as long as I've known you two that Naruto Uzumaki isn't made up of just one individual but his full identity is actually made up of two people. Him and you Eva. You two have always been together and you both make up the identity Naruto Uzumaki. You don't realize it but you two really are each other's other half. You two are one half of the same coin." Hinata said passionately that had Eva crying once again but these were tears of joy at hearing what her friend had to say and what she really thought of her.

"Can we start over? I don't want you to be mad at me anymore." Hinata asked, although there was a slight undertone of longing and desperation. "Yeah I would love that. Don't tell anyone this but I need you in my life. I love you so much and I don't want to lose our friendship." Eva said desperately.

"I remember I had a family once. Most likely full of brothers and sisters and a mother and probably a father. But they were all viscously killed right in front of my own eyes and before I could even have a moment to lose myself in despair or insanity I suddenly found myself standing in a pool of a young boys blood who looked like he was knocking on deaths door. I couldn't do anything to save my family so I vowed to save him and I did. I also unintentionally formed a blood contract with him but I didn't care. Then suddenly he returned my act of benevolence and gave me the one thing I wanted in that moment. A family. He took me in and genuinely cared for me and wanted to know everything about me. I never felt so loved. I repressed all my memories about my biological family; I don't remember their faces or even their names, they are practically strangers to me now. But then he came along and gave me a family to move on with." Eva confessed with a smile of joy on her tear stained face. At this point Hinata was crying silent tears as she listened to her best friend speak.

"Even then Naruto was a boy and I was a girl and because of that we still lived in two separate worlds despite how close we had gotten. Then you came along with your shy self. I truly enjoyed every minute of teasing you and just hanging out with you. I finally had a girl to hand out with and share and keep secrets with. Up until that point I never dreamed of keeping any secrets from Naruto so it felt nice to do girlish things and break the rules like that. I could now do things that I couldn't do with him because he was a boy and he would never truly understand and remember this is Naruto were talking about here. He may be really smart and sharp for a boy his age but he's still as dense and a rock when it comes to social issues." Eva joked as she made fun of Naruto. Hinata couldn't help but laugh although she was still crying. She too understood how dense and idiotic her crush could be sometimes. While yes she kept her feelings from him concealed it still didn't take a genius to figure it out.

"In my entire life I've never had a girlfriend before and someone who I could trust but you filled that void for me and made me feel special, just as special as Naruto did, it also helped that you excepted me right off the bat that day back in the forest instead of being afraid of me." Eva added in. "You're welcome. But to be honest there was no reason to be scared of you back then. I thought you were really cute instead of scary like what everyone believes a demon to be." Hearing this Eva blushed a very bright red that Hinata immediately noticed. Extremely embarrassed and bashful now Eva tucked some of her hair behind her ear. "Thank you. You're the only other person besides Naruto who really has called me cute. It makes me feel good about myself." Eva admitted while poking her fingers together just like Hinata still does whenever she's embarrassed.

"You're welcome." Hinata said with a smile on her face. "You know when you add in the fact that Naruto and I found Iris and Chaos and the craziness in trying to take care of them made it feel like I had a family. I felt like I belonged somewhere. I really felt like I was in heaven and it only got better when Henrietta and the others came into our lives." Eva continued as she leaned against Hinata's shoulder and let the indigo haired girl rub her hair like Naruto does often. "But now that I think about I know no matter how good I am I know I'm not getting into heaven. You know with me being a demon and all." Eva joked which had Hinata chuckling with her.

"So friends?" Eva spoke up after both she and Hinata descended into a calm silence for a few minutes. "Yes more than anything I want us to put this behind us. So yes friends again." Hinata said honestly. Falling back into her normal personality Eva got a mischievous look on her face. "Well if were friends again how about we take it a step further. How about from now on we can be girlfriends?" Eva suggested while wiggling her eyebrows suggestively at Hinata who had a huge blush on her face. "Eva!" Hinata cried in embarrassment. Even though Hinata knew that it was an innocent suggestion from Eva {Mostly innocent. Eva's a demon after all.} the thought of Hinata as a girl saying she had a girlfriend in any context made her feel embarrassed especially since she was raised in the Hyūga clan and she lived a sheltered life so connotations and innocent suggestions like that even after all this time still makes her embarrassed.

"Come on please! Pretty please. Oh say you'll be my girlfriend. Oh please say you'll go out with me! I can't bear the thought of you rejecting my love for you!" Eva pleaded and whined as she started to act dramatic in her performance. Eva got down on one knee and acted like she was proposing to Hinata. Red in the face and seeing the ridiculous performance going on in front of her Hinata gave in to peer pressure as she just couldn't refuse her friend. "Ok. Ok. We can go out." Hinata said although she whispered it out in embarrassment. "What I can't here you?" Eva questioned, she was determined to milk the situation and this was also her own version of payback and revenge for what started this whole situation. What can you say Eva's a demon so she isn't above getting petty revenge or being vindictive to others?

Mumbling out her response again Hinata looked away from Eva who saw this and decided to jump into Hinata's lap and place her hands around the shy girl's neck and now her face was in front of Hinata's face. "What I couldn't hear that speak a little louder!" Eva egged Hinata on. "I said I accept your love and I want to be your girlfriend!" Hinata yelled out after a few more times of Eva teasing her. Replaying what she said in her mind Hinata was about ready to pass out as she blushed crimson red. "Aww I knew you always had secret feelings for me! *Muyah* I love you too Hinata." Eva cheered as she kissed Hinata on the nose just like she does with Naruto whenever they share a tender moment together. Hiding her face with her hands Hinata couldn't look up with her glowing red face. Seeing her friend in that stated Eva started to cheer and skip around the log after jumping out of Hinata's lap.

"I have a girlfriend! I have a girlfriend! I have a girlfriend!" Eva cheered happily. Moaning in embarrassment Hinata peeked open her eyes to see Eva with a real sincere smile on her face that held nothing but joy and happiness in it as appose to earlier where her face was nothing but an angry snarl of rage and anger. Slowly removing her hands from her face a small content smile worked its way onto Hinata's face as she slowly started to laugh. It started out as a giggle but then it slowly morphed into joyful laughter that soon infected Eva and had her laughing as well. For a full five minutes Hinata and Eva laughed and every time it looked like they would stop or if one of them looked at the other they would start laughing again.

Eventually they calmed down and let another calming silence overtake them. Soon it was broken by Hinata. "So tell me what happened, why did you fly into that rage earlier?" Thinking it over Eva eventually replied. "Ok I don't fully understand it myself but this is what happened." Eva said as she went on to explain everything that happened since she left Naruto and Hinata in the hallway. She then took it a step further when Hinata asked who Daylily was. Eva told Hinata about how they met and since then how Daylily would hang out with her and also teach her how to control her powers better and also how to develop and create new techniques. Hearing all this Hinata thought it over. "So she did something to you or rather that mirror she had you look into triggered something inside of you." Hinata summarized. "Yes. Before I lost control I heard her say something about this is what happens when a demon can't control their powers. She was basically saying that what happened back there is my true self." Eva said with a shiver. She did not want to go through that again.

"It would seem to me like she wants something from you Eva. I would be very careful around her if I was you. This is something you should tell Naruto. What if she somehow uses the mirror on the girls? Who knows what would happen." Hinata cautioned. Widening her eyes Eva realized she never thought of that. Having no clue what could happen that possibility scared Eva more than she would admit.

"Yeah we should tell the others." Eva agreed. "So Eva what do we do about are feelings for Naruto? Even if it is Naruto I don't want any boy to come between us and mess up our friendship. We took a deep blow to our friendship today and I don't want that to happen again." Hinata admitted. "Well humans and demons can both be greedy and selfish but let's not be like everyone else. Let's share him. The very last thing I want to end up doing is becoming one of those useless fan girls in our class. I would rather fight an angel then do that." Eva joked as both of them knew especially Eva herself that if she was to ever go against a strong angel that actually wanted to kill her then it could with little difficulty.

"What about Henrietta or Aria for that matter. While I know Aria doesn't like him that much she still has some form of feelings for him. What about them shouldn't we tell them and all talk about this?" Hinata asked. "Meh… they'll be fine." Eva said while shrugging her shoulders. "Eva!" Hinata said in a chastising tone. "What? Oh come on you act like that's the meanest thing I've ever said." Eva remarked dismissively. Putting her hands on her hips and giving Eva an adorable pout Hinata glared hard into Eva's eyes. After a few seconds of this Eva playfully rolled her eyes. "Oh alright sweetie we'll tell them just as long as you all know that I'm first when it comes to him then it's all good." Eva said haughtily while getting under Hinata's skin with the sweetie comment. Seeing her blush Eva knew she got her good.

"Well what if I want to be first?" Hinata questioned with a rare challenging smirk on her face. It looks like Eva really rubbed off on her over the years. "Over my dead wings!" Eva shouted a war cry as she started to blast Hinata with water. Hinata ran away squealing at getting hit by the freezing water. "Get back here!" Eva yelled out playfully as she chased down her best friend all the while she violently ignored the tiny whispers in the back of her head.

[Kill her.] [Kill her now.] [Kill her now that she has her back turned to you.] [Kill her now that she thinks you trust her.] Eva violently ignored all of these comments and more as she allowed herself to get lost in the moment. What Eva didn't notice however was that she was shrinking and soon she started to trip over her own feet that were now getting smaller and smaller. Eventually Eva fell down inside of Hinata's big jacket that now really was far too big for Eva's small body that was now back to her original normal size. The gem on her stomach was also gone as well.

Seeing the clearing coming up Eva called out to Hinata. "Hinata wait!" Slowing down Hinata turned and saw what happened to Eva. "Eva what happened your back to normal?" Looking herself over Eva saw that her body returned to normal. With her normal body back it also came with some baggage such as Eva's self-consciousness. Eva unknowingly adjusted to her human like body really quickly without noticing and now that she was back in her own body it brought back all of her inner turmoil. Walking back to Eva Hinata picked the little winter fairy up off the ground and grabbed her large cream colored jacket and but it back on. Letting go of Eva Hinata let the little fairy float in front of her face. Looking Hinata in the eye Eva suddenly became self-conscious and embarrassed. Looking down at the ground while poking her fingers together in the same gesture that Hinata still does Eva spoke up. "Hinata I have a question." Looking at her friend with curiosity in her eyes Hinata gestured for Eva to speak up.

"How was it?" She meekly asked as her face was turning red. Not understanding Hinata asked Eva to elaborate. "How was it to kiss Naruto?" Eva asked while a massive blush broke out all over her face. "OH!" Hinata said as she understood what Eva was asking. Suddenly finding herself doing the same think Eva was doing Hinata struggled to come up with the right words. "It felt amazing." Hinata said bashfully. "Oh… that's great." Eva said awkwardly as the two girls got quiet. "We should get back to them now." Hinata suggested. "Yeah we should." Eva agreed still not looking at Hinata.


With Naruto

"I wonder what all that was about?" Naruto asked after Hinata took Eva into the forest. "I'm not too sure sir. I just hope Eva's ok." Aria said in a worried tone as she stared off to where Hinata and Eva went. "Yeah I hope so. I've never seen Eva angry like that before. I know it's more than me and Hinata kissing that made her react that way. I can feel it. I know something else is at play here." Naruto contemplated. He could feel that something was not right. The reaction Eva gave them back at the school was more appropriate and he could understand why she would act that way. Naruto wasn't completely ignorant to girls' feelings especially when he's quite the ladies' man himself. He and Eva share a bond closer than anyone else and he knew that she must have felt threatened by how close he and Hinata got with that kiss. He knows that Eva tries to suppress it but she is naturally selfish when it comes to his attention. Over the years he never really minded as it made him feel special and important to her. But the reaction a few minutes ago when she attacked him was not the Eva he has spent the majority of his life with. She was different and he wants to know what caused it.

"Daddy you kissed Hinata!? Where was my kiss?" Iris demanded with a gasp of surprise. "Oh please not now Iris, besides it was an accident that nearly drove me and Eva apart." Naruto said with a moan or regret. Seeing her father not in the mood for their normal bickering Iris sat in his lap and pressed her head to his chest. "I'm sorry daddy. I didn't mean it. But don't worry about it Eva's fine. She's my big sister and she can pull through anything. Something like this won't pull you two apart. Your bond is stronger than that." Iris said encouragingly. Smiling warmly down at Iris Naruto was about to pet her head when he winced in pain and discomfort. Seeing this Iris got worried.

"Hey don't worry about it. It's just the excess Yōki in my system now that's all. I should be fine by tomorrow." Naruto tried to reassure Iris but she was having none of that. "Dada is being stubborn." Chaos said with a giggle off to the side. But it was obvious to Naruto that she was just as worried for him as Iris was. "Here let me help you." Iris said as her hands started to glow brightly until golden flames coated her hands soon after. "Sacred Fire." Iris said calmly as her eyes flashed green for a brief moment before returning to blue.

Placing her hands over Naruto's stomach where your chakra core is in the human body Iris started to massage that area. The fire on her hands didn't even burn through his clothing or skin but it still carried the same about of heat as any normal fire and the warmth it was giving off right now was soothing to Naruto. "What are you doing?" Naruto asked his daughter although he made no moves to stop her. The warmth from the fire in her hands was leaving him to relax to move. All of his muscles turned to jelly as he slumped against the tree he was leaning against. "I'm helping out with the excess Yōki in your body. I'm guiding it and smoothing it out. It's clumping up in your Tenketsu or your chakra points. I'm smoothing it out and unclogging your chakra points. That's what's been causing you pain." Iris explained as she pumped her fire into Naruto's chakra core and then had her fire spread to the rest of his chakra points in his pathway system. Most of Eva's Yōki was already stored in Naruto's core and it recently became choked up so now that she pumped her fire directly into his chakra core most of the problem was taken care of.

"That's great sweetie, but how did you guys know we were in danger?" Naruto questioned. "A bird told me." Iris said simply. "A bird?" Naruto asked in confusion. "Yes big sis attacked two little birds earlier and they cried out. I heard their cry and I used my powers to see what they saw through their eyes. When I saw how Eva was acting I told Aria something was wrong. I then knew something bad was happening when those same birds came back and witnessed your fight." Iris explained as she finished up with her healing. "Wait you can not only talk to and hear birds but also see what they see through their eyes? Since when?" Naruto asked incredulously. This was news to him since Iris never told him about this ability of hers before. "Since forever kind of. How do you think I always know where you are? I mean yes I can sense you since I'm bonded to you and all but that doesn't tell me what exactly you are doing. I only know where you are and how far away from me you are. With my birds I can track you and see exactly where you are and what you're up too." Iris explained with pride in her voice.

Naruto had a shocked look on his face and so did Aria since she didn't know this either. Chaos who was leaning against Naruto's shoulder just laughed mischievously since she's known all along. She's used Iris's birds to plot out her pranks on people. It's a very handy skill to have and Chaos made sure to abuse her sister's powers for her own needs for years. Naruto was just looking at Iris with shock written clear on his face. "Come on daddy you can't tell me you never noticed the little birds that would sit on the window seal of your classroom or the abnormal about of birds that would be in the trees whenever you are outside in the school courtyard practicing with the other students. Or like when I was still an infant and I would cry and a lot of birds would show up at the window." Iris pressed.

Naruto jaw dropped at this as he now just remembered that Iris was right. There was always at least one bird in the window whenever he was in class and there were many birds out in the court yard when he's sparing with the other students. "You've got to be kidding me." Naruto said in a resigned tone as he wanted to face palm but his muscles were still too relaxed to move. "That's way pass stalkerish Iris." Naruto deadpanned. Huffing with a scandalous look on her face Iris had a comeback. "Don't say that! I'm only looking out for you daddy. I don't want anything to happen to you. I'm trying to protect you." Iris said in an offended tone. "Yeah but still that's really creepy." Naruto said but when Iris glared at him he turned his head so that he wouldn't feel guilty.

Hearing a rustle in the bushes Naruto turned to see Hinata and Eva come back into the clearing with smiles on their faces although he could see that they must have had an awkward moment based on the way they were moving. "Everything good now?" Naruto asked. "Yep everything's fine now. No wait it's better than good. Guess what Hinata and I are dating now." Eva said and she watched as Hinata tripped over her own two feet. "Hahahaha! I got her again." Eva laughed at Hinata's embarrassment. Instantly Naruto's mind went somewhere else and he started to blush. "Oh Naru you're a perv." Eva said as she caught Naruto blushing.

As Naruto, Hinata, and Eva started talking about everything that happened and coming to a resolution they heard a large rustling of leaves and out of a nearby tree that was still standing appeared Shoko. She landed in front of the small little group she had a hidden panicked look on her face and she was breathing really hard. "Guys what happened? Is everyone ok?" Shoko asked quickly as her veteran eyes took in the battlefield around her and she understood to an extent what happened. "Shoko we're fine. Everything's ok. But how did you know we were out here?" Naruto asked since he could tell Shoko rushed here. "Never mind that. Evangeline did you lose control?" Shoko asked as she looked directly at the fairy. "Yes but I didn't mean too. Naruto and Hinata managed to stop me." Eva said with shame in her voice. "What did you feel? Are you ok? Were there any changes to your body?" Shoko asked with a hidden urgency. Narrowing his eyes Naruto felt something wasn't right. "Shoko what's wrong, it seems you are concerned for something." Naruto asked his sharp mind figured that Shoko was looking for something specific.

"I'm just concerned for you that's all. A demon rampage is nothing to laugh at and you guys could have been killed if Eva was allowed to continue her assault." Shoko said as she expertly deflected Naruto's question. Naruto knew this but decided not to pursue the issue. After telling Shoko what happened in which time she kept on sending glances at Evangeline Naruto finally got the older woman to relax. "Ok I understand. Go home and rest up." Shoko said as she sent another glance at Evangeline. The little fairy saw the glances Shoko was sending her the entire time and Eva had a curious yet guarded look was on her face as she looked at the older woman. Shoko's gaze was that of someone looking at a person but seeing something passed them or looking at them and seeing another person in their place. Naruto motioned for the group to start walking so they could leave the destroyed clearing.

Iris and Chaos were playing with each other while dancing around the older children. Soon however they began to leave and as they walked away from the clearing Iris glanced back at a certain tree off to the side of the clearing and for the briefest millisecond her eyes changed from her sky-blue color to a blazing emerald that held all of her power as a Goddess. Her face contorted into a fierce warning glare as she looked at that particular tree but just as quickly as she did that her eyes changed back and she started smiling again. Noticing something was wrong Naruto looked down at Iris who was turning her head away from the tree. "Iris is something wrong?" Naruto asked. "Nope nothing's wrong daddy." Iris said innocently.


With Daylily

Daylily who was hiding in a nearby tree and was watching everything that was going on suddenly got a terrified look on her face when Iris looked in her direction. The image of white fire engulfing the entire clearing suddenly filled up Daylily's vision as a pair of large emerald colored eyes that held untold and unknown eons of power and wisdom slowly opened up above Iris's head who was glaring straight into her eyes with a look that was easy enough for anyone to understand. It was a message. A warning to back off. Just as suddenly as all of this came it disappeared and Iris was smiling again. 'Shit did that brat see me or something? I've masked my presence so how? And what was that image I saw?' Daylily questioned herself as she calmed her beating heart.

'I must keep an eye on those kids. They are not human that's for sure.' Daylily thought to herself as she saw the small family leave the clearing. A few minutes went by as Daylily sat on the branch to catch her breath. Whatever Iris did to her took its toll on the fairy. When Daylily rested up and was about to leave she sensed a presence behind her. "What took you so long to return Kurruk?" Daylily questioned as out of the shadows of the trees a familiar man came into the light.

Standing tall at an imposing 5'9 was a man who looked to be around 20 years old and he had the trade mark pale eyes of the Hyūga clan and he also had the classic aristocratic scowl planted firmly on his face. Wearing clean and crisp white robes the man had a Leaf Head band tied around his forehead. His brown hair was left flowing behind his back stopping between his shoulder blades with his hair gathered and tied near the end with a thin silk tied.

"I'm sorry milady but there were several complications that I ran into." Kurruk explained. "Continue." Daylily drawled out. "When you sent me to capture the boy when he stole the Forbidden Scroll of Seals he tricked me with a Shadow Clone disguised as the scroll. I took it with me and when I returned to base it managed to spy on some of my meeting with Lord Ryūra milady. My guess is that it ran out of chakra to keep up the transformation. When it was discovered I tried to apprehend it quickly but it turned out to be an Exploding Shadow Clone and it took most of the base out with it. We managed to flee the area. The explosion also wiped away the evidence we had there but also some valuable merchandise." Kurruk explained.

"I see. But I can sense that this is not all you have to tell me." Daylily said although going by her tone you could tell she wasn't happy. "Yes… well after escaping from the explosion I decided to rest a few miles down the road from the base but I was stopped by two individuals." Kurruk explained. "Oh and who were they?" Daylily questioned impatiently. Taking a deep breath Kurruk continued. "They were the rouge S-Rank missing ninja's Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki." Kurruk explained. Now having Daylily's full attention as she turned around to look at him Kurruk seemed to shrink down. "Itachi interrogated me milady and I fell victim to his Sharingan prowess. I didn't give up any important information but I did talk about the boy." Kurruk said in a subdued voice.

Taking a deep angry breath Daylily gritted her teeth. "And now he will be keeping his ears to the ground for any moves we may make. Just great." Daylily complained. "I'm sorry milady." Kurruk apologized. "It is too late for apologies now. Take me back to base and bring Ryūra to my chambers. I must contact that mongrel Minos and talk with him. Stupid fallen angel scum." Daylily commanded although she mumbled the last part under her breath letting out her apparent distaste for Fallen Angels. "Yes milady." Kurruk said as his skin literally started to peel off in layers revealing his so called skin to be familiar layers and rolls of bandages that now circled around his and Daylily's form before they disappeared from the clearing under a swirl of bandages.


With Kakashi

"Well now that was interesting. I think I should go inform Lord Hokage about this. Oh Naruto you make my job so difficult for me sometimes." Kakashi said as he witnessed the entire battle between Hinata, Evangeline, and Naruto. Closing the orange book in his hand Kakashi disappeared from the clearing in a Body Flicker.


Jutsu Library

1.) Sacred Fire - A move that is unique and a special ability of the Phoenix Goddess Sōkyoku. This unknown ability allows the Supreme Goddess of Life to create golden colored flames that is more unique and potent than her normal red hot fires. With these flames Sōkyoku is able to heal any injury no matter the severity and she is more that capable of bringing people who have died back to life with these flames. These flames have strong and potent side affects though. Anything that the flames engulf will not only be healed back to perfect health but they will also regress atomically back to a point in time when they were in their prime or at there very absolute peak. This aspect suggest that Time/Space abilities and aspects are involved in her flames as well. These affects are not limited to living organisms either. Anything that the flames touch including but not limited to by any stretch of the imagination are inanimate objects and nonliving things. The extent to which Sōkyoku's Sacred Fire flames can operate have yet to be revealed. However there are much more things her flames can do.

2.) Exploding Shadow Clone Jutsu - A variation of the normal Shadow Clone Jutsu. By packing extra chakra into the clone and disrupting it so that it becomes volatile the user can remotely detonate the clone when it's in range of the target. The thing about the jutsu is the clone looks exactly like a regular clone. Their is no distinguishing features that would suggest that the Exploding Clone would be any different than a normal Shadow Clone. The only difference is in the structure of the clone's chakra network. One is slightly unstable before it blows while the Shadow Clone remains stable throughout it's lifespan. Only a Byakugan or Sharingan can tell them apart and even then it will be difficult.

3.) Body Flicker Jutsu - A high speed ninja technique that allows the user to travel at high speeds in micro burst. Usually the technique is accompanied by a special effect that masks the movement of the user.


Authors Note (A/N): Hey everyone how was that? Did you all enjoy the emotional talk between Hinata and Evangeline. I spent a lot of time on writing that conversation so that it could all come out the way I wanted it too. I hope you all got it the way I wanted it to be told. A lot has happened in this chapter so lets all take a moment and recap.

- Hinata and Evangeline reconcile after this whole episode of drama and craziness.

- Naruto is now aware of Daylily.

- Hinata and Evangeline are now Girlfriends. {This plot point will be kept in the story for future little comedic events among other things.}

- We now know that Evangeline has secretly been holding back some emotional issues of vulnerability and self consciousness.

- Shoko was acting weird with her questions as if she was hiding something or at the very least she knew something.

- Iris has gained even more control over her healing abilities and she also inadvertently had to reveal to Naruto that she has been spying on him for a long time and that Chaos abuses her powers a lot for her own little schemes.

- We also learn that two girls can be mature about their feelings and handle them properly and responsibly.

- We also learn that Daylily is up to no good and worst yet she somehow knows Minos of all people. Chaos's old master.

- We also learn the mummy's real identity. It's Kurruk Hinata's body guard assigned to her by her father.

- Finally we learn that Itachi is also in on the action that is going on and will be happening in the future.

That is a lot of things that all add up. It raises many more questions but I'll leave that to you all in the reviews. This raps up the little mini arc concerning Evangeline and her feelings however the topic itself is far from being closed. Its only the beginning. Since I'll be gone for about a week or so I'll be giving you all this chapter and another one to cover up for my absence.

So with that being said I really enjoyed writing this chapter a lot as it allowed me to delve into the characters emotions and thoughts a lot more and it allowed me to develop the personalities and characters as people. It's a great learning experience for me especially since I like those emotional stories that some authors on this site manage to pull off really well.

The next chapter will be out 7/21/15 and that will be the last chapter for more than a week or so.

Thanks everyone for the support and stay safe.


That's the end of chapter 4 I sincerely hoped you enjoyed it.
