Hinata was speechless. He had taken the hit for her. Kiba said, "Akamaru... want to have some fun?" Akamaru barked. Kiba said, "So... you want to use them already?" Akamaru barked again. "Fine by me." Said Kiba. He threw a soldier pill to Akamaru, which he caught and ate. Kiba took his, and did the same. Kiba made doglike noises as he clenched his teeth. Originally he thought he could beat them easily, but Akamaru insisted that he should use the pills. Akamaru's fur stood on end, he was growling. The two missing nins introduced themselves as Tatsuya and Oroko. They used the shadows to their advantage. Tatsuya was originally a shadow clone. When Kiba attacked, it dissappeared. Kiba had noticed early enough. Tatsuya was unknowingly behindHinata, about to kill her with a Kunai. Kiba appeared behind Tatsuya, and punched him. He said angrily, "Don't even consider touching her..." His voice was in a low tone. Kiba's hand was clenched around Tatsuya's, Kiba applied pressure, and broke Tatsuya's arm. Oroko said, "Crap. Stop fooling around Tatsuya! We have to go already!" Tatsuya said, "But I didn't get to have fun..." Oroko said, "Oh well. Too bad. C'mon! Orochimaru's calling us!" The two left. Kiba's eyes widened, "Orochimaru... I have heard that name before..." Kiba knelt down to Hinata and said, "Are you alright?" Hinata nodded. She said, "You... You're bleeding..." "It's okay. Just a few scratches..." Hinata couldn't control her actions. She held Kiba and was now crying. She said, "Don't do something stupid like that. You could've died..." Kiba said, "Who cares if I wou-" He cut himself off. He then said, "You cared?" He was surprised. Hinata held a pouty face and said, "Of course. Shino would've done the exact same thing." Hinata looked at Kiba in the dark. He was her team mate. Could she really... love him? She helped Kiba up. Kiba said, "My house is that way." He held up his hand. Hinata began walking Kiba, he was leaning on her a bit. They finally reached his house. Hinata smelled dog everywhere. Kiba led her up to his room. He took out an extra futon. He lay himself down on it. His blood dripped onto it accidently. Kiba coughed up blood. HInata said, "Kiba... you're internally bleeding..."
Kiba said, "Sorry to cause so much trouble." Hinata jumped off Kiba's bed, and layed at his side. She began to unbutton his shirt. He said, "Hey! What are you do-" She cut him off. "Tending to your wounds. You don't need to put up that tough guy act all the time." He became quiet. His face turned red. He sat up on the bed as she bandaged his body. He said, "Your hands are soft..." Hinata stopped and looked at him. What did he say? Kiba continued, "You... you smell like flowers... like the one at Ino's store." She blushed. She had been spending a lot of time there lately. Kiba had suddenly said, "What is your favorite kind of flower?" Hinata replied, "An Iris. Why do you ask?" Kiba said, "I'm just curious." Hinata said, "I'm done." He looked at his bandages, they were neatly put on. She covered him with a blanket. "You should sleep now." Kiba said, "I don't want to. Staying under the covers works well enough for me." Hinata smiled, "You are so stubborn Kiba." Kiba said, "I'll sleep on the futon down here. You sleep on my bed. Hinata said, "Wh-What do you mean." Kiba said, "It's too dark outside, plus, I don't want you to be attacked again, it's best that you stay here." Hinata's face had turned red. Kiba got up from the bed and took a piece of clothing out of his closet. He said, "These are mine, I hope they fit you. You can change in the bathroom." Hinata went off to change, she came out wearing pajamas that had pawprints on them. Kiba smiled and said, "You look cute in those." Hinata giggled. They were a little big, but they fit her anyway. Kiba they said, "I really mean it. You look like a puppy in those." Hinata smiled. Akamaru jumped into bed with Hinata. Kiba said in a joking tone, "Akamaru's here to protect you from all the monsters!" He laughed. Hinata joined him. Kiba said, "Hinata, I wish one day I can be truly happy." Hinata asked, "How will you do that?" Kiba replied, "By being with you."
