First Kiss—Chapter Eight
"No quote. . .Spring Break. . .lazy. . . can think of a good and intelligent quote. .."
Naruto put his hand on the handle and stopped thinking for a second. He turned around and woke up the wounded Kakashi, who limped to the doorway. Sasuke and Sakura were woke up too, and they helped Kakashi to the doorway. Naruto opened the door, after holding the handle to the farthest it would go. It shot back as the light poured in and by instinct Naruto put his hand up to block it. The long walk of blindness occurred as all talking stopped, and Naruto put his hand down, seeing the crowd in front of him. They were all facing the opposite direction, but in the small second he had to himself to access the situation, he recognized some of them. "Naruto. . ." said a voice.
The crowd turned around and everyone in the village cheered to them. It was as loud as anything that they had heard before, and it happened for almost three minutes. The day had awakened again, after the ghostly attack that had killed Eo. The birds flew and chirped their unwritten songs, the flora grew in the burning sun, and the wildlife went along as if nothing had happened. The cheer died as Kakashi said, "You are all alive. . .Iruka. . .where do you lurk these days?"
Iruka walked through the crowd, as it characteristically moved to let him through. He spoke to Kakashi, while keeping his eyes on Kakashi's bandages. Sakura and Naruto poorly wrapped them, and a little blood had soaked through. They went all through his leg, one strip going over another and so on. "Kakashi! We have a lot to talk about. . .and on the other side, I thank you for freeing us."
"Freeing you?" Kakashi asked. "You were the ones who saved our lives. We should be thanking you, by the way, team. . .please."
"Thank you," Sakura, Sasuke, and Naruto all said in succession.
Iruka smiled as he continued. "No, actually, if it weren't for you, I'd never had found the true weakness to Eo. But we will need to talk in private so you'd get all the details. I wouldn't want to bore all of you, so continue the celebration." The crowd cheered again as it split up, and the festival began.
Naruto instantly went for the Ramen bar. Some of the villagers followed him and shook his hand, others sitting down to eat Ramen. People came and went, and Hinata walked through the crowd. She sat down beside Naruto, and slowly put her hand on his cheek, gently. He stopped, as if he had been shot, and the shock with it. Naruto looked up at Hinata, and looked straight into her eyes.
Loving and warm they were, and they caused Naruto to say, "You're. . .alive. . .again. . ." she smiled insecurely.
"I want you to come with me, to Iruka sensei's and Kakashi's talk. You must be explained what I was, otherwise you won't know what happened clearly. Then you would not have a good story to tell your grandchildren. . ." she smiled, this time confidently.
"Iruka, tell me what had to wait in till now. . ." said Kakashi. They were Sakura, Sasuke, Naruto, Hinata, and Iruka, inside Iruka's home. They all stood up, waiting for Iruka's answer, except Hinata. This was three days later, after the festival.
Iruka smiled as he sighed. His answer came out, "The other day, when Eo attacked, he killed me during the night, when his attack began. The only ones who survived were you all. Kakashi and his friend because they were outside the village when the attack began, and the same is for Hinata, she too was outside the village."
"I was thinking, so I took a walk. . ." Hinata said.
"Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura, you were spared because of your team, you all were considered very strong from this village. With Eo, well, he was cursed a while ago, in fact, during the time of the second Hokage. He was about the age of Naruto's team, and he was sent on a D-Class mission. The details of the mission I didn't find out, but something went wrong, and the wrong people attacked them. One thing led to another, and Eo was killed. He lay there for almost a year before he was found by an enchanter, and she brought him to life, at his current age. She made him invincible, almost, and gave him godly strength.
"She kept him under her wing, and trained him through what she had learned as a child. Teaching him techniques, and such. Like all things under a power, he rebelled and killed her. This is still under the second Hokage's turn, by the way. Well, years passed, and he kept training, over and over and over again. . .Why wouldn't you when you could not die? After our time was reached, he started to think, and he decided to test himself, seeing his power. He was not strong enough for this village, since before he reached you guys, he should have died fourteen times. That night before he attacked, he put a spell under the village, and all were silent. No one would wake, only the strongest would and did. He ran into a problem when he noticed how strong our defenses were, and in the dead of night, since he could not die, we slowly were picked off.
"The next day came and well, you guys picked up from there. . ." Iruka finished his speech as Naruto asked a question.
"Wait, how did he get killed in a D-Class mission!? Did he suck or something?!" said Naruto.
"No. . .his team was ambushed from raiders, they were much stronger than Eo's team and he was killed, that simple." Naruto looked at him, confused, but still accepted the answer.
"Okay, I have another question, why were you all turned around when I opened the door the other day?"
". . .We kind of practiced for that, it was for a dramatic effect. . ." he smiled as he put his hand to the back of his head.
The sun went down as Naruto and Hinata sat on the edge of a cliff, they talked about random topics, and Naruto kept thanking the fact that she was alive. She smiled and looked into his eyes, and he put his arm around her, gently hugging her. . .
AN: Wow. I was right. There were more Naru/Hina scenes. A good load of them soon.
