:D See, I continued! (but this thing really needs a plot!) Yeah, Kiba is a little weird, but his personality quirk will work out in the end!
Love From Vikky You're not stupid, you're BRILLIANT!!! Your stories are really awesome and…well, you're cool!
Snapesita2 Yeah, I agree with you! ::cries:: I can't help it! Picking on Hinata is actually kinda fun! I'm such a mean person…BTW, did I spell your name right?
Jix I thought it was interesting too, cause I wrote this a 3 in the freakin morning! I mean, I think this chapter is awesome, considering the hangover I had. Maybe I should get drunk more often…the constant throbbing headache is worth it if people like my story, especially if I think its bad, ya know what I mean?
Chibion0 Freakiness is good! Glad you like it!
Matrixheavyarms ::is embarrassed:: um, I didn't have any contraptions in my story, did I?
And remember: Reviews are like TV's. You need them.
-Chapter 2: Enter Naruto!-
It hurt. It hurt to think, to move.
Hinata groaned. Why me? This sucks! She was about to complain some more of how much her day sucked when it suddenly dawned on her that she wasn't at home in bed with the usual migraines. Oh, contraire! She was in a dilapidated shack in the middle of nowhere with a migraine. "Oh, joy."
She squinted, taking in her surroundings. She was in what looked like a storeroom, which had various rotting items, giving the room a lovely rotting aroma. She sighed and let her thoughts wander. They eventually came back to the night before-the gun, Gaara, and Kiba's insanity. He seemed rather normal before, so when did he go insane? I mean, he didn't even start acting remotely strange until the night before.
"JAKOTSU!!!!"
Hinata winced at the loud screech. Please don't tell me someone lives here; that would really suck.
"JAKOSTU, GIT YOUR SKINNY ASS BACK IN YOUR FUCKING BED!!!!!" the same voice screamed.
"But mommy, I ain't tired!" came a young boy's high-pitched voice.
"I don't care, get back in there and SLEEP!!!!"
Jeez, that woman is loud! Hinata thought, shifting uncomfortably on the potato sacks. She soon fell asleep.

"Um, ma'am? Can you, like, please wake up? Pretty please?"
Someone was shaking her. Hinata groaned and cracked open an eye. Seated in front her was a young man of about twenty, his hands still on her shoulders. "Holy crap! Who the fuck are you?!" she yelped, trying to back away from him.
"Whoa, whoa! Calm down, miss! I'm not gonna hurt you!" the blue-eyed boy cried frantically. When she didn't heed his plea, he whimpered, "C'mon, please calm down! If you get too panicky, my boss might fire me! And I gotta keep my job!"
When he said this, Hinata finally calmed down. "Are you a police officer?"
The man looked uncomfortable. "Ummm…Yeah…See the badge?" He proudly showed off his golden badge. "I became a police officer because being a cosmetologist was too hard for me."
"Riiiight…"
"Well, uh, I kinda halfta take you to the station to get questioned or whatever. Do you need me to help you get up? Cause you are pregnant and everything…" he trailed off uncertainly. She shook her head and tried to stand up. Bad idea. Her legs were like pudding because she'd been sitting on them for so long. Grimacing, she said, "I guess I do need help after all." The boy grinned gleefully and helped her to her feet.
On the way to the door, the boy tried to engage her in a conversation, one of the two things she wasn't in the mood for (the second thing was walking). "My name's Uzumaki Naruto. Who're you?"
"Naruto, eh? Nice to meetcha. My name's Hinata. Inuzuka Hinata." She replied. Naruto stopped, and turned to face her, a look of awe on his face. "You're Inuzuka Kiba's wife? Wow, you don't like you could stand a life of crime!"
"What? Crime? The only time that I know of that Kiba got in trouble for was when he went streaking in college!"
Naruto made a disgusted face. "O-kay, TMI…" He opened the door, and they walked down a dirty, cluttered hallway in silence. Suddenly, he laughed. Hinata looked at him, startled. "What's so funny?"
"Oh, nothing, just thinking about somebody at the station. He's one of my buds. He's hilarious!" Naruto replied.
"Tell me about your friends at 'The Station'. What are they like?"
He screwed up his face, thinking. "Well, there's Shikamaru, who's a comrade of mine. He's the funny one. Mighty lazy, though. Then there's his girlfriend Ino. She's a real bitch. Um...Oh, yeah! Sasuke, my brother-in-law; he's married to my sister, whose name is Sakura. She's a hurricane on two feet. Another bitch! Then there's Neji and TenTen."
Hinata jolted. "Neji? Is his last name Hyuuga?"
Naruto looked awed. "How'd you know?"
Hinata rubbed her head. "He's kinda my cousin." He stared at her, then grinned. "Heh, you look almost exactly like him."
They walked out another door and stopped at Naruto's police car. Like a true gentleman, he opened her door for her and bowed. "Ladies first. Madame?"
She snickered and got in.
---
"Do you know where your husband and his accomplice went?"
"No sir, I was unconscious when they drove away."
"Thank you, ma'am. That's all for now." She got up to leave and met Naruto at the door. Grinning, he said, "Hinata, wanna meet the gang?"
She nodded, nervous about what Naruto's companions would be like.
He led her down a pristine white hallway, and towards what looked like a lounge. Before they reached the lounge, they heard raised voices.
"You've gotta watch him! Me and my girlfriends are going shopping tomorrow, and I can't find a baby-sitter!"
"I can't Ino! I'm a police officer; I can't skip work just to watch that brat!"
"His name is 'Gazen', not 'brat'!"
"I don't care! I am not watching him!"
"You don't have to skip; you can ask the boss if you can take time off."
The man and woman that were fighting turned to Naruto and stared.
"Hmm. Never thought of that." The boy stated. Upon hearing this, the girl smiled slyly and sidled up to the boy. Giving him puppy-dog eyes, she whimpered softly, "Please, Shika-chan? Won't you do it for me? For you wittle Ino-koi? Pwease?"
Naruto rolled his eyes. "Ino, you sly dog you! Anyway, Hinata, these are two of my buds, Shikamaru and Ino." Shikamaru bowed and said, "Actually, my name is Nara Shikamaru, if you wish to be formal. If you don't wanna be formal, feel free to call me Shikamaru. You can call me Shika-chan only if you're Ino, which you aren't, so don't call me that."
He's interesting. Hinata thought.
"Hi. My name is Yamanaka Ino. I have blonde hair, blue eyes and I have a son named Gazen, who can be a little bastard sometimes, but I still love him, just like my Shika-chan!" Ino smiled brightly.
Hinata smiled nervously. Okay, she's so cheerful it's scary…
"You haven't seen the rock around lately, have you?"
"Nah, he went to pick something up for Sakura and then went home." Shikamaru replied.
"Oh. Okay. Well, we better be heading out, then! See ya tomorrow!" Waving, he left the lounge backwards.
"Hey, Naruto, why is your seat not leather and all the others are?"
Naruto blanched. "Promise you won't tell anyone?"
Hinata raised an eyebrow, but still nodded. "Well, confidentially, I'm allergic to leather."
She struggled not to burst out laughing. The sound that came out of her mouth was one of the most unflattering things that ever came out of a woman's mouth. It was a cross between a snort and the dying cry made by a cow. Naruto pouted. "It's not funny."
Hinata bit her lip. "Actually, yeah, it kinda is." He glared at her, and then started laughing as well.
They were on the way to Naruto's house, and everything was going fine. They talked about high school, people they knew, and things like that. Then Hinata felt something Hinata hadn't felt since she had been pregnant with Semuri: contractions.
"Naruto! Take me to the nearest hospital! Now!"
