"Gomen, Naruto-kun! Gomen, gomen, gomen, gomen, gomen…"

"Hinata, I said it was ok, please, stop!"

"Gomen…"

"Hinata…"

"Go…I mean…oh…"

It was three days after Naruto had gotten out of the hospital, and the sun was shining high above the pair. Naruto was laying down on the ground, from what seemed to be a painful punch in the head, while Hinata stood over, blushing and twiddling her fingers.

Naruto carefully touched the bump on his head. After making sure he was alright, he jumped back up onto his feet, crouching back into a fighting stance.

"Ok Hinata, break's over, let's go again."

Hinata seemed like she was about to protest, but thought better of it. She went into the Jyuuken stance and nodded.

Naruto rushed her with a flying side kick. She deftly dodged and attempted to strike his passing form, only to time the blow wrong, and finding herself hitting empty air. Naruto had regained his composure by then, and was aiming for her exposed back. She quickly ducked in time to evade what would have been a painful right hook. She continued by grabbing the arm with one hand while making a sweeping kick to his knees.

He quickly pulled himself from the hold and jumped up and delivered a smashing kick to Hinata's chest. She caught it and flipped him over. He fell on his stomach, and felt a weight on his back. He heard a giggle and a voice followed after it, "I guess I win Naruto-kun."

He grinned and replied, still face down in the dirt, "Hinata, get off, you're heavy."

He laughed as he imagined the indignant face that Hinata must've been wearing as she snorted. She laughed along as well. Naruto continued to laugh, while thinking how glad he was that he had finally been able to get Hinata to lighten up. The two friends continued to laugh in the training field as the birds flew by, singing, almost as if to join the pair in their laughter.

Naruto continued to laugh, but he could feel something in himself stirring. He recognized in a heart beat, and was willing himself to push it back down.

Too late…

Naruto could feel himself being taken over. His mind was locked up within itself as the kitsune took over.

Now for some real fun…

It opened his eyes to stare at Hinata, who was still laughing. It forced him to watch, as it grabbed her delicate throat and thrust his free hand into her heart. It forced him to witness this, to feel this murder, all the while laughing at him, as the heiress' blood dripped down from its hands…no, his hands.

Naruto woke up in a cold sweat. He looked down upon his hands, and saw no blood. He broke down right then and there, recalling the horrible dream, and wondering aloud, "What the hell is going on?"
