-Hiko still a she, so still referred to as a she.
By Suuiren
"Yeah, yeah, whatever," was all that Hiko could reply as she sat at the counter of Ichiraku. She had beaten up Naruto and gotten out a free meal of ramen out of it from Iruka. She didn't hurt Naruto TOO bad as she looked at an almost mummified Naruto next to her sipping ramen out of a straw (if that was even possible =P).
"So," Iruka said. "Where are you planning to stay tonight Hiko- chan?"
"Hiko-chan?" was all that was heard when yet again the proud master of Hiten Mitsuruugi showed Iruka-sensei how much of a Hiko-CHAN she can be.
Chapter 3:First Night in Konoha
"Don't you ever DARE call me Hiko-chan again!" smirked Hiko with a bit of malice as she stood over Iruka's body with a clenched fist and heavily beaten Iruka on the ground. "I'm Hiko Seijuuro, 13th master of Hiten Mitsuruugi, so don't you ever talk to me like I'm just a ditzy teenage girl again!"
"Heh, sorry Hiko-ch-, I mean Hiko-san," said Iruka back a bit guardedly. 'Geeze, what kind of teenage girl is this! The punches she pulled were some of the hardest punches that I have ever felt . . . these bruises are going to hurt for awhile . . .' thought Iruka as he looked upon the lovely Hiko. 'Yup, definitely one girl you should not cross, Iruka,' thought Iruka as another punch landed on his face.
'Ne, Hiko-neechan, you don't have a place to stay at do you?" asked the 10 year old Naruto.
"What makes you think that I don't have a place to stay at." stated Hiko as he raised an eyebrow towards Naruto still shaking a now unconscious Iruka as Hiko unconsciously kept on punching him without realizing that she was still beating him.
"Because you have no money and I've never seen you around Konoha before." Said Naruto. 'Plus, you don't have their eyes.' Thought Naruto.
"Heh, and what if I don't have a place to stay at. I'm used to staying out under the stars." Said Hiko. 'Although it has been some time since I've been on a real bed . . . how long has it been since I've had some real sleep on a bed?' thought Hiko.
"Oh," said Naruto disappointedly.
"Oh? Oh, what?" asked Hiko. 'What's this brat thinking?' thought Hiko.
"Umm, well, anno . . . I just thought that if you didn't have a place to stay tonight. If you wanted . . . you can stay at my place, tonight." said Naruto slowly and despairingly. 'Baka Naruto, no way is this pretty girl going to accept that invitation. Why would anyone else? But why did I even ask in the first place? I don't even know this girl. Besides, she beat you up and stole a free meal from Iruka-sensei . . .' thought Naruto.
"Hn?" was all that murmured out of Hiko's mouth. 'This kid is interesting . . . what kind of kid just invites in a total stranger?' thought Hiko.
'Naruto, what do you think your doing?' thought Iruka as he looked at Naruto.
'Baka what are you doing, you should apologize now, thought Naruto as he was about to say, "Ne, Hiko-neechan, I'm sorry that I just blurted that ou- . . ."
"And who said that I wouldn't accept." Stated Hiko. 'Besides, when was the last time I slept on a bed. This kid may not look it but he kind of does remind me of that baka dieshi (idiot apprentice) of mine and you should not take up an offer that is offered in genuine kindness' thought Hiko as he looked at the kid. "Besides its not as if I would refuse but don't you think your parents might have some say in it if they just saw you brought in a stranger to stay over for the night?"
". . . I don't have parents. I'm an orphan." stated Naruto as he looked at Hiko. 'Now she's going to think that I was so lonely that I just wanted her to stay over so I didn't have to feel that feeling of loneliness. At least, for one night.' thought Naruto as he looked at the now stoic standing of Hiko.
"Hmmmm," was all that came out of Hiko's mouth when she started rubbing her chin in thought. 'So he's also an orphan, Kenshin was also an orphan and even when he was sold in to slavery he was still able to show compassion towards others. Those two are very similar.' "Heh, sure, why not." Said Hiko with an exasperated voice and ended it with a, "Hn."
"Na . . . nani?" asked Naruto meekly. 'Did she say what I think she just said.' thought Naruto.
"Ugghn," muttered Hiko. "You baka. How many times do I have to repeat myself. If you didn't get my answer the first time then listen closely this time. Yeah, sure I'd like to spend the night at your place kid. Besides, what kind of idiot would I be if I didn't did not accept an offer if it was free."
"Wha-, yatta! Yeah! So you accepted? You really accepted! Cool! Come on!" yelled Naruto as he started to grab Hiko's and dragged her towards his little apartment. I'll let you see where I live!"
'Heh, this kid is definitely like a younger Kenshin before he went off to fight in the Bakamatsu. Heh. such eyes unclouded by hate and spirit. This is an interesting kid' was Hiko's last thoughts.. "Hey, just don't think you can just drag me anywhere because I accepted your offer." Hiko said as she was being dragged away by an over excited Naruto.
'Hmm, I seem to be forgetting something,' thought Hiko all of a suddenly.
"Why! What did I ever do to deserve this?" asked Iruka to no one at particular as he laid on the ground as a half-beaten pulp of a person.
Meanwhile in the Hokage's Office
"Ahhh, what a wonderful day it is today." stated the Third happily. 'Finally, it's rare of me to finish my paperwork so early. I wonder what I did to finish my work so early.' thought the Third quietly as he was about to go back to his house and enjoy a nice little smoke break.
"Hokage-sama, someone is here to meet you. Its Hayate, sir." Stated the Third's secretary.
'Not Hayate again,' thought the Thrid, 'I hope he didn't come to complain again.'
"Hokage-sama!" said Hayate loudly as he waited for the Third to give him permission to speak.
'I'm getting too old for this.' thought the Third as he moved behind his desk as sat down again. After that he promptly gestured Hayate that he could speak now.
"Hokage-sama, I know that I have not been the most cooperative as of late and that my tantrums about being re-assigned has troubled you a bit and for that I am sorry." said Hayate promptly.
"Yes, Hayate, it was expected that you act like that. But if that was what you came here to speak to me for then I am glad that you have finally seen that the defense of Konohas gates are important." Said the Third tiredly.
"Yes,Hokage-sama. I also came here to tell you of the strange occurance that happened today."
"Occurance? Go on?" gestured the Third for Hayate to continue.
"Well, today I was on the gates doing my rounds when I saw something that was highly unusual. Today, there was a teenage girl that seemingly walked in to Konoha without much trouble. She simply walked in without the guard noticing. At first, I thought she used some kind of genjutsu on the guard but I later found out later the guard was just incompetent." explained Hayate.
"Continue," said the Third. 'What is he getting at?' thought the Third.
"Well, the weirdest part was- . . . you chose me to be a Gate Guardian because of my extremely well-tuned chakra detection sense right, Hokage-sama? Because of my Bloodline Limit to see the chakras that people emit?" asked Hayate all of a suddenly.
"Yes, that was very apparent from the beginning, right Hayate?" replied the Hokage.
"Well, yes, I realized that a bit ago but I'm not going to waste your time anymore, Hokage-sama. Well, to get back to the event that happened today. That girl, the one that passed the gate, she wasn't checked for any sort of identification or pass. I know that would be of no big importance normally, right Hokage-sama? Well, what I'm trying to say is that when I was about to go check that girl I had just realized she showed no sign or even emitted the slightest bit of chakra. Even with my family's Bloodline Limit ability to see chakra emission from a person, she produced none. As if, she were some sort of phantom." said Hayate finally.
"Yes and what are you getting at Hayate?" stated the Third, getting a bit more interested in what Hayate was saying now.
"Well, you see Hokage-sama. I think we may have a potential threat to Konoha here. Someone who is able to get in to Konoha undetected, even with my Bloodline Limit unable to detect her, can and probably will do what they want to do in Konoha. What I'm trying to get here at Hokage-sama is that we may have a potential assassin here." Stated Hayate with a bit of finality.
"An assassin?" asked the Third quietly. "What makes you think that, Hayate?"
"What better way to strike at Konoha than now? I must insist that you reinstate me back into an ANBU team so that I may be able to seek out this potential assassin so that I may straighten things out Hokage-sama." declared Hayate.
"I don't know Hayate. You do have some point to this unknown threat but I must insist that you stay at your post." said the Hokage slowly.
"But Hokage-sama," said Hayate "if not me then who? Who else can track this unknown miscreant down?"
"Hmm, you're right. I think "he" is still here inside the building. Umm, Mizuki." called the Third.
"Yes, Hokage-sama?" came the voice of his secretary.
"Can you go retrieve Kakashi? He should still be here within the building. He just finished his report a few minutes ago. Please go tell him to see me." said the Third calmly.
"What? Hatake Kakashi?" asked Hayate a bit stunned. Sure, he was a bit surprised. Who by now couldn't have heard of the genius ninja "Copy" ninja Kakashi? But what Hayate was thinking was why did the Thrid call in Kakashi?
A few minutes later came a –poof- and Kakashi appeared within the room.
"Yo," said Kakashi as he appeared in the room. To his left he could see Hayate and in front of him was the Third. "What could you have wanted with me, Hokage-sama?"
"Kakashi, we have a bit of a problem here and you're just the ninja we need here." said the Third as he told Hayate to again explain the situation again to Kakashi.
"So you want me to track down this unknown entity in Konoha then Hokage-sama?" asked Kakashi slowly.
"Yes, Kakashi, I want you to take Hayate here as a team member and along with any one ANBU team and go search out Konoha for this unknown person." said the Hokage slowly.
"You mean I won't have to be posted on guard duty anymore Hokage- sama?" asked Hayate excitedly. 'Finally, a mission for me. It's been awhile though and I have it with one of the most powerful Jounins too. Heh, this might turn out great.' thought Hayate.
"Well, then," said Kakashi before he was about to leave. "For the ANBU team that is supposed to help me with this mission. I request that you bring out the Ino-Shika-Chou trio out of retirement so they can help me with this mission." said Kakashi slowly.
"Why?" asked the Third incredulously.
"Because Hokage-sama, no other team is more qualified to take down one person. With their respective family Bloodline Limits we should easily be able to capture this unknown teenage girl. If that is what we are to expect her to be. Their teamwork and combined Family Bloodline Limit should be more than enough."
"Hmm, very well then Kakashi. I trust you for your judgement. This will be treated as a class A mission here. I expect you to do your best and not fail here Kakashi. I also expect a lot from you too Hayate." said the Hokage. 'Ino-Shika-Chou, now it has been some time since I remember those three together. Heh, they probably turned into old men' Thought the Third with a smile on his face. 'Whatever this unknown teenage girl wants in Konoha, I hope that it is not she is what Hayate says she is.' Hopefully thought the Third.
Meanwhile
"This is where I live!" said Naruto excitedly as he pointed off to his apartment.
'This is where he lives,' thought Hiko. 'What a dirty place and it smells like ramen.' "Yo brat, it smells like ramen in here." said Hiko.
"Of course it does, ramen is my most favorite thing in the world. Next to my dream of becoming Hokage," stated Naruto loudly.
'What's a Hokage,' thought Hiko, "and why did it make this boy so excited. Oh well, whatever. It obviously is very important to the boy. Whatever it is its not my business.' "What kind of mess is this to be called a home?!" demanded Hiko as she looked at all the old discarded ramen containers and chopsticks. The apartment was also in bad shape too. It only had one table, one chair, one drawer, and one small bed for the boy. Even Hiko had more when he was living by himself in the mountains near Kyoto. It was also dirty, very dirty. Dust, dirt, clothes, and all sorts of unmentionable trash laid strewn about. It barely made sense to Hiko as to how this boy was able to live in such a jump heap. She personally liked being very tidy when it came to living in her house alone. It made for an easier transition of her things when they needed to be moved around.
"Heh, what a dirty little brat you are here, Umaki Aruto." Said Hiko casually.
"It's not Umaki Aruto, you dumb ugly girl!" yelled Naruto angrily. "It's Uzumaki Naruto, not Umaki Aruto. Remember that, Uzumaki Naruto, the future Hokage of Konoha!" 'Who does she think she is! Mispronouncing my name after she clearly heard it several times before and saying my palce is dirty!' thought Naruto.
'That does it! No one and I mean no one gets that many liberties off of Siejuuro Hiko without some major pain! That brat is going get it!' Hiko's mind yelled a she retorted, "Me? Ugly? Dumb? How do you get off calling me all these and yet at the same time think you can get away with it brat!" yelled Hiko as she was about to smash Naruto's head in with her clenched up fists. "So I mispronounced your, eh? So what? Everybody makes mistakes, even a great man like me even makes them once in a while!" 'Damn I just called myself a man, again! That brats gonna use it against me again!'
"It's Uzumaki Naruto and remember it!" yelled Naruto. "UZUMAKI NARUTO, U-Z-U-M-A-K-I N-A-R-U-T-O and what's with this thinking that you're a guy!? Are you really that much of a baka to realize that your most definitely a girl! Do you think the future Hokage of Konoha would be that dumb to think that you're a guy like you say are when you most certainly look like a girl!"
"TEMME!" yelled Hiko as she was now right against Naruto's forehead. As their foreheads were rubbing against each you could feel the electricity being produced by the two as they were deadlocked in a gaze that would give anyone the shivers. "What's this being Hokage?! You think a twerp like you can become Hokage? Even though I don't even know what being Hokage means I sure as Hell KNOW that a BRAT like YOU can only dream of becoming Hokage. The only kage of anything you can become is a kage to all the bakas out there and you know what that's called, a kage to all the bakas, a BAKAKAGE!" As Hiko said that he was about to hit the little brat with the sheath of his sword giving him a good bump he would remember. But before any of that could of happened Naruto . . .
"Bakakage?" stated Naruto as he looked at Hiko dumbfounded. Then as if by some unknown force Naruto suddenly started laughing "Ha ha ha ha, what kind of baka comes up with such a word as bakakage?" bursts out Naruto. Naruto keeps on laughing as he is now on the grounds holding in his sides gasping for from the statement Hiko just made.
Now it was Hiko's turn to be dumbfounded as he now looked at the now suffering brat that was laughing himself to death. 'Hn' thought Hiko as he thought of the situation him. 'What a baka I am. What kind of Master of Hiten Hitsuruugi would I be if I had really whacked the brat with the sheath of my sword. Then I truly would have been the TRUE baka of them, the bakakage. Hn, what a stupid word, bakakage, kind of reminds of how I call Kenshin my baka dieshi.' Hiko remarked to herself as she looks down at the brat and as a smile crept upon her face, she realizes that the mood in the room all of a suddenly changed as the brat did too. 'Reminds me of the early days of Kenshin and me before I started teaching him Hiten Mitsuruugi Ryuu. This brat to say the least was . . . interesting compared to Kenshin and all his stupid Rurouni remarks and "Oro's."
Meanwhile about the same time and very near by
Iruka had been surprised by the extensive yelling he heard earlier coming from Naruto's apartment and had to run to check it himself. There he saw a quarreling Naruto and Hiko that gave him the shivers. They were like two giants glaciers in the open sea playing the game of chicken to see which would obliterate the other first and he also saw that Hiko was the one that was going to obliterate Naruto. Iruka had to stop it, even if Naruto found out that his sensei had followed him all the way home from Ichiraku's because he feared for his student's safety. But before Iruka could reach Naruto and Hiko he realized or sensed that the mood had all of a suddenly Naruto started laughing as spat out the word bakakage. He also saw a small smile creep up upon Hiko's face as she lightly put her forehead into the palm of her left. She was glad that all of this worked out well. "Hiko-chan, I'm glad you could be the first person ever to be able to quarrel with Naruto and shrug it off. I'm even more grateful for you to be able to make him laugh too, not just any laugh but a genuine one. Hiko- chan, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing what I, myself, can't do because of I can't be both his parent, brother, and his sensei. I'm glad because now I can finally be a better teacher to Naruto if you're here to stay a bit longer. I just hope that you're here to stay a bit longer." 'Finally, Naruto has someone to argue with,' thought Iruka. 'I hope that he can learn to quarrel with others in the future. Finding someone you want to quarrel with and talk with is very hard to find. Especially here, where everyone knows whats inside him.' thought Iruka as he slowly walked away from Naruto's apartment never having to have had to stop their little quarrel and feeling a bit jealous that he couldn't have done what Hiko-chan could have had done.
Meanwhile a bit later in Naruto's Apartment
"Oyasumi," said Naruto lazily to Hiko. Hiko had decided to spend her night on the windowsill and had decided that Naruto should have his bed. 'Besides,' thought Hiko as she half sat, half slept on the window sill. At least I'm protected from the rain.' As soon as she thought that the weather had gotten a bit bad and a light night drizzle of rain was occurring. 'Ah, this sill feels much better than the dirt I'm used to sleeping on," Hiko said inside her head as she lazily fell asleep.
"Where am I?" said Naruto as he found himself surrounded by the same dream again. He looked around and saw all the adults of the town with their backs turned to him in an indifferent way. They refused to listen to Naruto or even acknowledge him as they did nothing.
"Why?" cried Naruto as he all of a suddenly starts crying in his dream. "what did I ever do to deserve this from all of you!? Please tell me!?" cried Naruto desperately.
"Get away from us you monster." Someone cried.
"Yeah stupid, or go do somthing else, stupid!"
"Just leave us alone!"
"Go away! You demon-child!"
"Monster!"
Monster was the last thing Naruto heard before he woke up covered in sweat and loneliness. It was still echoing within his head as he kept on hearing "MONSTER" over and over repeat in his head.
"Why? What did I do to deserve this?" thought Naruto. As he started walking out his room. '!!!!!!!' thought Naruto as he saw Hiko sleeping on the sill. The rain had already stopped and out in the sky was a full moon shining in its best as its lights splashed all along Hiko's fine tuned body. It seemed as if Hiko's body that was basking in the moonlight was not making the light look interrupted but rather the light was actually accscentuating her body. It showed everywhere as it glowed around her giving her a light yellow hue glow around her body. She was a breathtaking view for Naruto as he basked in her sight, all the ill-will of his dream all of a suddenly now gone. "Like an angel," was the only thing Naruto could mention as he dragged along his blanket and started to settle in with in Hiko, draping her arms arms around him as he nestled between her thighs, abdomen, and chest. He felt safe in her arms for the second time in his life as he nestled within Hiko's body unbeknownst to Hiko. He then draped a blanket between them both and fell asleep once more.
Hiko was in a place she has never been before. It was a dark place, so dark as if no light could penetrate it. It was a weird kind of darkness as she could only see herself and nothing else. 'So dark,' thought Hiko, 'this must be someone's nightmare world.' Thought Hiko as her dreams weren't nearly this stark and full of nothingness. 'What kind of place is this thought Hiko.' That was what she thought until she started hearing a low voice, it was low, and it seemed to be saying:
Feel my love, feel my soul, it's so magical
Take my hand, make me whole, its so magical
The voice became more clearer as it seemed to come nearer towards Hiko
Can't get you off my mind,
What we have is hard to find,
Hiko could only think of what this dream was trying to tell him as he was listening to Naruto. Meanwhile as Naruto was sleeping all he thought about was that he wished he had like Hiko to live and love him like other kids had their mothers for them. He wished to whatever Gods out there that was listening to him there at that moment
I feel this thing inside but I know,
Your love, your love, it can set me free, make me see, it's so magical,
'Nani?' was all that went on inside her head. 'What is this idiotic voice trying to tell me.' Thought Hiko, though he knew that this voice wasn't idiotic, but beautiful, as if it were being sung by an innocent being trying to get to her. 'Baka, what does this dream want?' thought Hiko as she continued to listen to it.
You and me, we are one, the Moon and Sun, it's so magical,
you'll see
La di da, la di di, it's so magical, you'll see
Hiko now stood as this warmth came upon her engulfing her in a warm feeling. A feeling of love thought Hiko. Hiko knew it was love because he had felt these feelings once a long time ago. 'Before I became a murderer.' he thought as he heard the song go on.
Life is good, life is fun, it's so magical
Love is here, we are one, it's so magical
. . . Hiko had tried to stop listening to the song now. Whatever it was, it kept on repeating itself.
Feel my love, feel my soul, it's so magical
Take my hand, make me whole, its so magical
'Hmm,' thought Hiko, 'it feels as if this feeling of love, or whatever it is, is trying to seek me out. Heh, who in their right minds would dare to love me or try to?' thought Hiko. 'This dream is weird, Moon and Sun, eh? I wonder which I am.' Thought Hiko as the dream started shifting out of phase, the last thing she heard before she woke up was:
I feel this thing inside, but I know,
Your love, your love, it can set me free, make me see, it's so magical,
As Hiko woke up, she felt rather weird . . . she would soon found out why. There, perched between her hips and thighs, laid the sleeping form of Naruto, not only that but he was grabbing upon Hiko's left breast, fondling it as if it were a Teddy Bear, and to add insult to injury, the brat even used her right breast as a pillow! She also had drool running down her right breast and culminating near her, her,. . . PELVIC area!
'This is too much!' yelled Hiko in her mind. 'No Hiten Mitsuruugi master has ever been so insulted in their lifespans as masters of Hiten Mitsuruugi. The brat is going to DIE for this insult! DEATH is the only solution for one the one who has violated my maidenly VIRTUE! MAIDENLY VIRTUE!' yelled Hiko inside her mind as she jumped up and threw Naruto into the kitchen where he slammed into the sink.
All Naruto could see when he woke up being in the sink and . . . turning to meet the gaze of Hiko. She looked MAD and not only that but MAD at HIM. 'Oh damn,' was the only thing that ran through Naruto's mind as he stared upon an angry Hiko. Then he heard him say but saw something else that would give him nightmares for the years to come . . .
"Time to deliver Heaven's Wrath upon you BOY! In all MY LIFE I have never been so . . ." was all Hiko could say before she saw something that horrified her even more than Kaoru's bad cooking. It was down in her crotch area. 'I'm BLEEDING! NOT only BLEEDING, but bleeding from THERE! What the HELL happened to ME!' yelled Hiko's inner voice as the 13th master of Hiten Mitsuruugi did something that she had never done in her entire, not even when she was facing death in his face, she . . . yelled with a blood curbling scream and . . . fainted.
"Ara?" was all that Naruto managed to say before he, himself, fainted.
