Disclaimer: Once again, I do not own Naruto. If I did, I would be a very rich Japanese man. Every ninja would probably be over 16 years old, and it would be less childish, except for Harem no jitsu. Naruto would fool Jiraiya with it everyday. And Orochimaru would be dead. And the 3rd Hokage would be alive, but he would think he is too old and let Tsunade become Hokage. And Sasuke wouldn't have left. And everyone would be totally happy. Nothing would be wrong. Even Zabuza and Haku would be alive, and not evil.
Before I start, i must clear things up. (The text descriptions below are for the Story only. Not the disclaimer and Author notes.)

Bold and Underlined Text: Inner Hinata (I kinda made that up at the end of chapter 3. It's random, but it was the only thing I could come up with)
A/N: I'm getting more time to write this story! Hooray! As you know, Naruto and Neji have died. Hinata has ran away from home. She has quit being a ninja. Now she is looking for a place to stay. She has already tried Team 7, 9, and 10. Ino was the worst. But, Hinata got back at Ino. Actually, When Hinata got back at Ino for the torture she put Hinata through, something horrible happened. An Inner Hinata was created. Inner Hinata is just like what Inner Sakura was, except not as mean. After getting revenge on Ino, Hinata is going to try to see what her own team will do for her. Wait... I can't tell you anymore. It will ruin the story. Now you can read on. But, one more thing. Could you review the story please? It'll make me feel better about my writing.
Ch. 4 A Woman's Touch
Hinata was still giggling in her sleep about what she did to Ino. That was the worst thing Hinata had ever done to toture anyone. Actually, that was the first time she tortured anyone. "I can see her now." Hinata thought,CLEANING ALL THAT MESS WITH NO BREAK, I WANT TO SEE HER SUFFER! But, not now. Now, I need to wake up." So she did. She got out of the hotel bed, and went to take a shower. She had already made sure that no one could get in or out of the room, for fear that someone like Kakashi or Jiraiya would try to peek. She stripped and stepped in the shower. She washed herself, and then just stood there, thinking.
"What should I do?" Hinata asked herself. "I've tried to stay with everyone except my old team members. Kurenai would be a very good person to stay with. Shino and Kiba are good too. But, Shino and his family scare me a bit. Why do they always wear those sunglasses, and high-collared jackets? And with Kiba, how many dogs do they have living with them? I know there's Akamaru, but his house sounds like it has a lot more dogs in it. Do they have wolves too?" Hinata was asking herself all the questions, but it wasn't going to help her if she was still in the shower. She turned the water off, got out and dried herself off. She put on her normal clothes, but then thought, "I need a new wardrobe. I'll deal with that later." "Right now... I need to see Kurenai-san, Shino-kun, and Kiba-kun. Maybe they can help me." Hinata said, and wlaked out of the room with new found confidence.
Hinata walked around Konoha looking for her old team. "I'm glad my old team didn't pick a new member right off the bat, like my FUCKING BASTARD OF A FATHER! There it went again. Why does this keep happening?" Hinata thought. "Oh well. Where could they be?" Hinata asked herself. "I've went to every one of our usual spots. Oh no, don't tell me they went on a mission?" she said to herself. She started running toward the Tsunade's office, but stopped when she saw everyone at Ichiraku's ramen shop. They were celebrating... but what was it? Hinata walked into the ramen shop and was met by everyone staring at her. Hinata was confused. "Why are they all staring at me? Should I ask them something?" Hinata thought. She started to say something when everyone yelled "WAY TO GO, HINATA-CHAN! YOU ARE THE ONE MILLIONTH COSTUMER TO ICHIRAKU'S RAMEN SHOP!"
Hinata just kept staring at them. Then, Kiba, Shino, and Kurenai came up to her and said, "You win free ramen here any time you want. Every visit you make, one person can eat with you for free." Hinata nodded. They let her sit down. Shino and Kiba sat on both sides of her. She looked around at everyone in the tiny ramen shop. "Kurenai, Shino, Kiba, Akamaru, Kakashi, Sakura, Sasuke, Asuma, Shikamaru, Ino, Chouji, Gai, Tenten, Lee, Jiraiya, Tsunade, Shinzune, Gaara, Temari, Kankurou. Everyone cares about me. I wish there was a way I could return all of their support." she thought to herself. This is turn, made her start crying, but she managed to say, "Arigoto, every one of you."
After a few hours of eating ramen and hanging out, the others started to leave. The only ones left were Kurenai, Shino, Kiba, Akamaru, and of course, Hinata. They all cared deeply for her. They knew how much pain she had suffered within the small amount of time.
"Arigoto, Kurenai. Arigoto, Shino. Arigoto, Kiba. Arigoto, Akamaru." Hinata said.
"No need to thank us, Hinata-chan. We will help you any way we can." Kiba said with a cheerful agreement bark from Akamaru. "We only did this for you." Shino looked up at Hinata. Even though he had his glasses on, she knew that he cared for Hinata, and everyone else. "Well, they have done all this for me, what else can they do?" Hinata thought.
"Hinata?" Kurenai said starling the girl. She had been in the corner the whole time, because she was forcing Shino to be with Hinata. "We all know that you aren't living at home anymore, so if you want, you could stay with me." Kurenai said. She was the only woman that knew Hinata really well. She had helped her in many horrible situations before. "Should I stay with Kurenai-chan?" Hinata thought. "Yes, Arigoto, Kurenai-chan!" Hinata said. She got up and hugged Kurenai. "You're welcome." Kurenai answered. Hinata and Kurenai walked out of Ichiraku's, leaving Shino and Kiba alone.
"What should we do Shino?" Kiba asked. "The girls are going to be occupied for a while." he added.
"Let's go spar." Shino answered quietly. They got up and left, with Akamaru following behind.
Meanwhile, Kurenai and Hinata were walking back to Kurenai's apartment. "So what do you want to do first?" Kurenai asked, breaking the silence.
"Let's just do girl things. Like painting our toenails and stuff." Hinata answered.
"Do you want to invite any of the other girls?" Kurenai asked. Hinata pondered the question and answered, "Sure. We should invite Tenten, Sakura, Temari, Anko, Shizune, and Tsunade. Maybe even Ayame, Ichiraku's daughter."
"What about Ino?"
"NO! I WANT TO KILL INO!" Hinata yelled. "What is happening to me?" she thought.
Kurenai just stared at her. "What just happened? Was she actually yelling? Did she say she wanted to kill Ino? I'm so confused." Kurenai thought. "Okay, no Ino." she answered and the walked to the apartment. When they got there, Kurenai went to her phone and started calling everyone. Hinata wanted this to be a girl's sleepover. Without Ino of course. When they reached Kurenai's apartment, Hinata ran in instantly and started planning her sleep over. Kurenai just stared in awe at how focused Hinata was with her new found plans.
"Ok. We'll do this, then this, then this, and then that... and end with that." Hinata thought. "Ok, I'm done planning. I'm going to make the invitations and deliver them today." Hinata said.
"That's fine." Kurenai responded, still amazed at how much work was being done. "She never acted like this on missions. What has happened to her? She has a whole new spring of confidence." Kurneai thought.
Sorry if this chapter is a bit short. I haven't been concentrating on my fanfiction for a while, but I promise that I will write more whenI have some more time. PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!
