Chapter 4
Murderous Intent
"Look there she is."
"You mean?"
"Yeah that's her."
Hinata was becoming more and more confused and embarrassed as she walked to her locker. It seemed everyone was talking about her. She had one question. Why? Opening her locker she noticed someone was behind her. When she turned; she found only Naruto.
"GOOD MORNING HINATA-CHAN!" Naruto just gleamed at her. She smiled back.
"Good morning Naruto-kun."
"You ready for class?" Hinata nodded. Discreetly Naruto slipped his hand into hers and led her away to class. When they got outside the door Naruto stopped.
"Sorry Hinata-chan but I got to go to my Tuesday class." She nodded. Naruto then bent down and kissed her gently on the lips. Then he turned and started to walk away. "See ya later, Hinata-chan!"
A little dazed, Hinata walked into the classroom and took her seat next to Sakura and Ino. They looked at her a little funny.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Hinata questioned. Ino was the one to answer; Sakura didn't seem in much of a mood to talk.
"There's been a rumor going around the school that you kissed Uzumaki Naruto. Is it true?" Hinata blushed.
"Y-yes." Ino looked shocked.
"You did? Really? Wow…"
"Why are you so surprised?"
"It's nothing really." Ino didn't sound too convincing.
"Hey class sorry I'm late. I accidentally drove over an old lady th-"
"YOU DON'T DRIVE A CAR YOU LIER!"
"Anyways lets get on with the lesson will we children?" Kakashi's face twisted into the scariest happy looking face yet. Everyone went completely silent.
After an hour and a half of bored drum; class was finally over. Hinata sighed; she never thought it would end. As she walked to her next class she began to feel like someone was following her; she sped up. But Hinata didn't get to far; she was completely surrounded by other girls. All of them looked extremely angry and none would let her pass. One-stepped forward.
"You stole our idol away from us."
"I-idol? W-what are y-you talking about?" Mentally Hinata cursed her stuttering.
"You kissed Uzumaki Naruto, right."
"Yes. W-why does it matter to you?"
"Because we all love him and you stole him away from us. For that you must pay." The Naruto fan-girls began to close in around Hinata. The girl who had spoken walked straight up to her and slapped her across the face. Following the other girls lead; the other girls began to strike at Hinata. Hinata wanted it all to stop. She wanted it all to end.
Suddenly the girls were thrown off of Hinata. Fearful, but curious, Hinata looked up. She saw Naruto pulling the girls away from her; she could see the worry and desperation that outlined his face. Once the fan-girls realized what was happening they all ran off, hoping to evade Naruto's rage.
Gently Naruto picked Hinata up from the ground. She was bleeding and maybe had a few broken bones, but besides that she was fine. He sighed in relief; he had no doubt that those girls would have killed Hinata if he hadn't gotten here in time. Careful not to hurt her anymore; he cradled her against her chest and carried her to the nurse's office.
"Doc will she be alright?" Naruto looked up at the doctor who was attending Hinata. After the nurse had examined Hinata at the school she had deemed her injures to be too severe for her to handle. So Hinata had been sent to the hospital. Try as they might nor the teachers or the doctors could get Naruto to leave Hinata's side.
"Well, she will recover. But she will not be able to get around properly for a while. She has a broken wrist, a broken leg, and multiple fractions in her left arm. Those girls you told me about must have really been trying to kill her."
"I think they were."
"Neji-kun did you hear what happened to Hinata-san?"
"No. What happed?"
"She was attacked by haywire fan-girls. I guess they tried to kill her."
"WHAT? THIS BETTER NOT BE A JOKE TENTEN!" Tenten cringed away from Neji.
"No, it's not a joke. This isn't something I'd joke about."
"This is not good. When Hisashi-sama finds out; he'll kill me. Quite literally."
"Did you see the look on her face when we surrounded her?"
"She was so scared."
"Ano, accuse us, but just what are you talking about?" Ino, Sakura, and Temari stood over the insane fan-girls.
"Oh just how we totally trashed that Hyuuga girl." The girl giggled. "She was such a wimp. She never even fought back."
"Oh really?" They began to crack their knuckles. "Well that Hyuuga girl is a good friend of ours and we don't take lightly to her being beaten up and insulted." Sakura stated. The girls cowered in fear; this was not good. Not for them at least.
Slowly and painfully Hinata opened her eyes. What happened? Where was she? Carefully she sat up; she was immediately greeted by sharp pains in her abdomen. "Ouch. That hurts."
"Hinata? HINATA!" Naruto was there in an instant gripping her in a tight hug.
"Ano… Naruto-kun could you please stop? You're hurting me." Naruto quickly let her go.
"Sorry, I kinda forgot. I'm just happy you're okay."
