I now present you Naruto the demon within chap 4 !!!
Sakura was fuming, Hinata had abandon her at the bookstore for an unknown reason forcing her to pay for everything but that wasn't the problem as leaf demon hunters get paid a lot. The problem was that she couldn't find Hinata anywhere, she was not at the apartment they shared neither was she at their regular hangouts.
"Where could Hinata be?" she wondered as she walked down various alleyways looking for clue to Hinata's whereabouts. Sakura gasped as she saw the remainder of Mizuki. "Hinata must be in trouble." looking around frantically Sakura spotted a trail of dried blood, no doubt Mizuki's leading to the rooftop.
Sakura followed the trail to a complex of apartments, however the trail ended there. Cursing, Sakura began searching each apartment for a sign of Hinata's presence. After a long excruciating search Sakura found Hinata's shoes outside an apartment. Without a thought Sakura kicked open the door and proceeded to deliver a rock solid punch to the person right in her line of sight. The unfortunate person turned out to be Naruto.
Naruto woke up having slept the most peaceful sleep in his life since the four years of training. He blushed when Hinata who was still asleep moved even closer resting her head on Naruto's shoulder. "Ok Naruto stay calm, Hinata is just resting on your shoulder" he told himself repeatedly. Naruto looked at Hinata again, her beautiful face, her beautiful lips curled into a smile, Naruto felt like kissing her just to feel her soft lips on his, he face leaned closer to hers, closer, closer. Their lips were about to touch when Kyuubi said "Kid there is someone coming, hmm looks like she's already here." "She?" .
At that moment Sakura came crashing through the door, Naruto with his well trained reflexes immediately got up and rushing to attack the intruder when he recognized the cherry blossom hair and the emerald green eyes "Sakura chan?" was all he could say before Sakura's fist came into contact with Naruto's face, followed by a sickening bone cracking sound.
Moments before the punch
Sakura caught sight of Hinata lying on the crouch. Thinking that Hinata was being kidnapped and that the person in front of her was her captor, Sakura did not hesitate to use her full strength in her punch, knocking the captor straight into what she thought was the kitchen.
Now
Naruto was thrown across the living room and crashed into the kitchen by the punch. Sakura immediately followed trying to attack Naruto with an aerial taijustu combo. However when she reached the kitchen she found no one there. Suddenly she felt a kunai pressed against her neck. "Who are you?" a voice behind her asked, to her the voice sounds very familiar it sounded like Naruto. "Impossible Naruto was not this fast, this speed, it is even faster than Sasuke kun."
"Who are you and why is Hinata with you" she countered. She felt the kunai withdraw, not giving the Naruto a chance to explain she whirled around and tried to grapple the unknown person in a lock only to find herself grasping air. Because there was nothing for her to grab Sakura landed on the ground with a thud. She heard a snicker, inner Sakura exploded with fury "kill that person!". She regained her footing and charged the mysterious person hoping to catch him by surprise. The next thing she knew she was back down on the floor, she tried to get up but found that she was unable to summon strength; the last thing she heard before blacking out was Hinata saying "Will she be alright?"
Naruto was relieved; he had managed to disarm Sakura without injuring her. The girl had charged through his apartment door and without hesitation knocked him into the kitchen causing a large bump on his head, it was a good thing he got Kyuubi's healing factor or the bump would have taken quite awhile to heal. He had used the pressure point technique to knock out Sakura for the moment. Naruto carried the unconscious girl and placed her on the couch. Hinata felt a brief moment of jealousy when she saw Naruto carrying Sakura; she secretly hoped that she was in her place.
Having finally got a good look at Sakura, he realized that she has grown more beautiful since he last saw her. She obviously has kept her hair long with it reaching her waist; her face was sharper giving her a more beautiful look. Naruto blushed as his eyes strayed to Sakura's body, she had a body of a model, slim waist, long legs and nice brea- Naruto stopped his train of thoughts when he saw the demonic look that Hinata was giving him. Apparently Hinata was not very happy that her crush was giving all his attention to another girl. Naruto was about to get killed when Sakura woke up with a groan.
The first thing Sakura saw when she came too was a pair of blue eyes staring right back at her. "Huh? Who are you" she asked, "Me I am the famous Uzumaki Naruto the next Hokage."
"Naruto! When did you get back? Did you know how long you were gone? Sakura said delighted that the brotherly figure in her life was back. Naruto smiled back indeed it has been quite a long time since he last saw his baby sis.
Flashback 4 years ago
"I wonder how Naruto will take it?" Sakura wondered to herself. Naruto was leaving for a 4 years training, she did not want him to leave while still having a crush on her, besides her beloved Sasuke kun has got it through his head that revenge was not the only thing in his life. With that they had started getting together. She hated to do this but she knew it would break his heart more if he found out by himself. With a heavy heart she made her way to the apartment Naruto was living in.
"Hi Sakura chan!" Naruto greeted her happily as he invited her inside.
"Naruto we need to talk now..." Sakura said in a firm voice.
Naruto sensing something serious sat down and focused his attention on what Sakura was going to say. "Naruto I know you have a crush on me but the thing is I cant return your feelings, I love Sasuke with all my heart, I am sorry to tell you now but I do not want you to leave with a crush on me, besides I have always treated you as a very close friend, I know you can find someone better than me..." Sakura said tears rolling down her cheek."
Naruto was stunned he did not expect this to happened, but what is done is done. Using a tissue to wipe away Sakura's tears he said "Sakura chan it's ok, I know I lost the moment you declared your love for Sasuke when you were nine." Sakura grinned at that happy memory, when she was nine she announced during her birthday party that she was to be Sasuke's bride.
"But we can be friends right?" Sakura asked. "Of course, no matter what Sakura chan I will be there to support you." Naruto said giving her his foxy grin. And that was how a close bond was form between the two friends.
Flashback ends
Sakura got up from the crouch and took a good look at Naruto, if she was not infatuated with Sasuke she would have pounce on Naruto without hesitation. "Ahem" she turned around to find Hinata. "Hinata you alive!" Sakura said as she pulled Hinata into a hug and started to squeeze the life out of her, "I wouldn't be alive any longer if you keep squeezing." Hinata replied. "Sorry" Sakura said grinning apologetically. "But did you know how hard it was for me to find you? and why did you leave the bookstore in the first place?" Sakura asked.
Hinata sighed and gave Sakura a summary of what had happened but she left out the part of Naruto's taurma, for that Naruto was grateful.
"So Mizuki sensei actually made a contract with a demon?" said Sakura who still had the surprise expression on her face. "Yup" Naruto replied.
At that moment Jiraiya came through the door. "Hey Naruto I already got you enrolled in Tokyo college!" he said with a grin on his face. "Eh I didn't know we have guests, incase you didn't know, I am MT. MYOBOKU-GAMA'S HOLY MASTER SENNIN! THEY CALL ME THE GAMA-SENNIN!! JIRAIYA-SAMA!!!!!!" Jiraiya said striking a cool pose. Large drops of sweat appeared behind Naruto, Hinata and Sakura's head. "Nutcase" was the thought that went through Naruto and Sakura's mind while Hinata was stunned by the presence of a sennin. Suddenly Hinata recalled Jiraiya's words "Hey Naruto I already got you enrolled in Tokyo College!" "Wait a minute; I am also enrolled in Tokyo College, which means I get to see Naruto Kun everyday" Hinata thought excitedly. Meanwhile Naruto was arguing with Jiraiya for a new technique and Sakura was redoing her make up.
After having dinner at Naruto's place the two girls bid Naruto and Jiraiya farewell, just as they were about to leave Naruto came up to Hinata and asked "Hinata what course are you taking?". Hinata blushed as she replied "I am taking biomedical technology." Naruto grinned back "I see well I am taking law enforcement."
"Ah I wished that Naruto Kun had chosen biomedical, sigh looks like I won't be able to meet him during class." But Hinata wasn't about to give up hope "She asked "Naruto Kun what are you taking for your minor?"
"Finance." was his reply. Hinata's heart skipped a beat. Her beloved Naruto Kun was in the same course as hers. She smiled inwardly to herself, "I bet Naruto Kun will be surprise when he meets me for the course." Her plan was ruined as Sakura when over and hugged Naruto "Hey you are in the same course as Hinata and I" she said cheerfully. Naruto smiled back "that's great!!" After talking with Naruto for
With that the friends bide one another goodbye and left.
The next day
Naruto was having a wonderful dream involving Hinata and himself when a beam of sunlight hit his eyes. He turned to the other side only to find more light worse the alarm clock to his left had started its annoying ringing. Naruto brought his fist down on the clock effectively silencing it.
Naruto was about to head back to dreamland when Jiraiya burst through his door. Jiraiya grab a cup of water and poured it on Naruto's face. "What the fu-" Naruto was cut off by Jiraiya "hey kid you need to get to class weren't you meeting Hinata today." At the mention of Hinata's name Naruto quickly jumped out of bed and went to get himself ready.
Jiraiya chuckled to himself, 17 years old and still Naruto was acting like a kid, "hey Naruto" he shouted, "I am heading to Hidden leaf to sort out some stuff see ya later!"
"See ya ero sennin" was Naruto's muffled reply from the toilet.
Later
Naruto was humming to himself as he made his way to college, he was dressed in a black long sleeve shirt with blue jeans and black boots, his hair was hanging down without his forehead protector. A little fear creeps into his heart as he entered the campus.
Hinata was excited, frankly she was ecstatic, her beloved Naruto Kun was going coming to her campus. "I will show Naruto kun around the campus before passing him my old notes on finance." she thought to herself happily. She felt Sakura tapped her shoulder, turning around she saw what Sakura was pointing at.
It was a amusing spectacle to watch, Naruto and Sasuke both handsome looking guys have entered the campus at the same time. The fan girls feeling this to be too good an opportunity to miss split into two groups, one to tackle this handsome newcomer and the other to tackle their beloved Sasuke Kun even though Sasuke already had a relationship with Sakura.
Both guys glared at one another with the "its your fault" look. But now was no time for rivalries, they began to move through the crowd of fan girls. It seems that today the fan girls were extra determined to hold on to their idols. No sooner has both guys moved a step before they were pushed back further. Soon both of them were overwhelm, luckily Sasuke had Sakura who managed to pull him out. Once the fan girls realized that Sasuke was out of their reach they turned their full attention to the newcomer.
"Hinata chan I am sorry looks like I wont be able to meet you today" Naruto thought as he was soon to be overwhelm by the hugs and kisses the fan girls were attacking him with. He would have used kage bunshin no justu but due to the fact that it may expose the hidden leaf to the public he refrained from it. In a last attempt he managed to free his left hand and was desperately looking for something to grab when he felt another hand, without hesitation he grabbed it.
He was surprised that it was Hinata that pulled him out of the mess. The fan girls were about to swarm Naruto again when Hinata blocked their path. With fierce determination in her eyes she spoke in voice that could have bend steel. "Naruto Kun is mine; stay away from him or else..." The fan girls with the look of terror on their face quickly disperse.
As Naruto got back on his feet, Hinata turned to face him her face a shade of crimson red. "Umm Naruto kun I was sorry for doing that." She apologized. "Its ok I don't mind being yours." He teased.
Hinata turned bright red with that statement. Naruto grab Hinata's hand proceeded to walk away when he saw the raven hair boy standing with Sakura smirking. Naruto decided to kick the raven hair boy's butt, letting go of Hinata's hand he walked forward to the pair and decided to introduce himself.
"Hi my name is Uzumaki Naruto and you are?" Naruto said stretching out his hand.
"Uchiha Sasuke." was Sasuke's reply as he shook Naruto's hand. So this is one out of the two survivors of the Uchiha clan, the last time I remember he was the number one rookie in the academy, I wonder if he had grown stronger?" Naruto wondered as he shook Sasuke's hand.
Meanwhile in Sasuke's mind
"So this is the dead last from the academy, well he doesn't look like a dead last to me."
"I wonder how strong is he?"
Naruto was going to try and provoke a fight when Hinata grabbed him by the ear and whispered "Naruto kun lets not start anything shall we?" with that she dragged Naruto away by the ear. Both Sasuke and Sakura were surprised by the Hyuga heiress's action but kept it to themselves incase they themselves become involved.
Later
Naruto was writing down notes for the lecture when his mind wandered off to a certain blue hair girl. "Hinata has really grown, even her attitude has changed, she is more outgoing and confident now." His thoughts drifted to her angelic features and that incredibly mature yet charming smile. "I should concentrate, concentrate damm it" Naruto managed to divert his attention from the beautiful girl in his mind to Uchiha Sasuke who was sitting four rows below him. "From what Hinata has told me Sasuke has improved greatly over the time I was gone training, I look forward to meeting him during the chuunin exam."
Naruto was walking around the campus waiting for his next lecture when he saw many couples strolling and holding hands. For once he felt alone in this cold harsh world, he wished that he could have someone who was always with him, someone he could share his problems with someone like..
Hinata.
Something inside his mind clicked; the way she acted when she was with him, the fact that she was always there for him, and that she would be there to cheer him up whenever he felt down. He'd spent his childhood foolishly chasing after a girl who was interested in someone else, and all this time there'd been someone by his side who deeply cared for him, maybe loved him even. And, with a few second's thought, he realized he felt the same way. Naruto wished he'd discovered Hinata's feeling sooner. Having made this life-changing discovery, he made his way towards the Lecture Hall for his Finance class.
Immediately after the lecture he approached Hinata, who was sitting two rows above him. "Hinata," he started. Hinata whirled around to face the familiar voice, her face breaking into a smile as she realized who was speaking to her. Naruto's heart rate increased when he saw her smile; for the first time in his life, he realized that smile was meant for him. He felt a bit of guilt when he remembered how he had always pushed her aside for his childhood crush, Sakura. With that thought in mind, he asked, Hinata, may I talk to you privately?"
Naruto lead Hinata to the fountain located outside the Lecture Hall. As class had ended, there was no one around but them. Taking her hands in his, he continued where he'd left off.
"Hinata," he said, "I've been a fool."
"Naruto-kun, what's wrong?" Hinata asked, a tone of worry evident in her voice.
"Hinata, I want to apologize."
"For what?" she asked him.
"For never noticing. You were always there for me; the one to care for me when no one else did..."
Hinata's heart was pounding in her chest. Now that he knew her secret, how would he react?
"I know how you feel about me. And, well, I've realized I feel the same way. What I want to say is, Hinata, will you be my girlfriend?" For a moment, Naruto considered the possibility of rejection, and prayed to whoever was watching him from above that it wouldn't happen. All doubts were erased as Hinata arms snaked around his waist in a tight, loving embrace. It seemed her answer was yes after all. (What did you think it was???)
After treating Hinata to dinner at a ramen restaurant called Ichiraku he'd discovered on campus, Naruto walked Hinata back to her apartment.
"Well, tomorrow is Saturday, which means training in Hidden Leaf," Naruto said.
"Then I guess I'll see you tomorrow." Hinata told him, as she kissed him on the cheek and entered her apartment, leaving Naruto standing there dumbfounded.
"Tomorrow indeed..." Naruto stated to no one in particular, and with that, he turned and made his way back to his apartment, a bright smile gracing his features.
