Chapter 8: Hinata Kidnapped!
(I don't own Naruto)
"Shit! Someone saw us! What do we do now?" One of the kidnappers with a cat mask asked as he held Hinata unconscious.
"Relax, he won't be able to reach us at this height," The second said while doing generating constant charka in his hands that seemed to be the source of energy for the cloud that they were using.
"You keep the cloud carpet steady and Submin keep an eye on the package, I'll deal with this," The third was their leader; a tall muscular built, long blue hair with a short katana on his back. He drew two kunais from his and prepared to throw.
Meanwhile on the ground, Naruto was also going to attack. He used his clones to boost his jump into the air and then upon reaching his maximum height. He dispersed his clones on the ground and summoned two clones that grabbed both of his arms and again threw him into the air. He did this repeatedly until he was able to see the kidnappers clearly.
"Kage-bunshin no jutsu!" Submin, the cat masked man holding Hinata was surprised that a genin can do a high level jutsu.
Their leader threw the kunais to Naruto. Naruto was still climbing up from his last jump but the attack halted his advance. He successfully blocked both and as he descended he used the charka on his feet to one of falling kunais and threw it back at the kidnappers.
The blue haired shinobi drew his katana and stopped the approaching danger with a counter attack. The kunai bounced off the katana's blade upward, lost its velocity and came back to the hands of its true owner.
Meanwhile, Naruto got the other kunai, summoned clones to gain altitude once more and finally reached the unknown craft.
"Grrahhhh! Bring back Hinata!" A slash welcomed Naruto. He wasn't able to dodge it entirely and left a cut on his left sleeve. He replied with a series of kicks but not one got in. Naruto landed on the craft but to his surprise, he went through.
"Nani? Wahhhh!" he shouted as he was fast falling down.
The leader of the kidnappers signaled the craft controller to go faster as they left the village's air space thinking that it was all over but a hand grabbed his left leg and when he looked downwards saw Naruto and behind him were his clones. "Heh! You won't get away that easy!" he grinned.
"Hmmph" The leader kicked in an attempt to make Naruto lose grip. He succeeded but the young shinobi bit the kidnapper's pants. "Annoying Brat…".
Naruto then with his hands free formed a seal. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!". The 5 clones formed took the kidnappers head-on.
"Argh! Damn these clones, I can't concentrate anymore" Unable to maintain chakra with the clones attacking him, the leader gave the signal to abandon the craft. "Disperse!"
The cloud disappeared and they all went down to the forest below. Despite receiving kicks in the head directly, Naruto still held on to the leg of the leader. As they were about to reach the ground, the enemy used both the kunai and his sword to slash the annoying kid stuck in his leg. Realizing this, Naruto released his grip and as he backed off, threw a kunai that destroyed the mask of his enemy.
As the mask shatters, a pale and emotionless face appears and on his forehead bore the sign of his village.
"Cloud Village!" Naruto exclaimed.
"You are pretty stubborn kid for a Konoha genin…," Then he noticed Naruto didn't have a head plate "..or not yet but even so I won't let you get in the way of our mission".
"Give back Hinata! Konoha will not allow this! The ANBU will be here any minute now so you just have to give up!"
The leader was still calm. "Sorry kid that won't happen…ninpou," His hands made a seal. "Cloud binding technique!".
"Huh?" The enemy in front of him was disappearing slowly and a thick mist was covering all of the surroundings. "What's this? Hey! Where are y-,"
BLAG!
Something grabbed his legs of a sudden making him hit the floor. "What? Huh?" The mist was mysteriously wrapping around his legs and slowly climbing up to his torso. "Ahhhhhh! What's this? Argh! Let me go!" Naruto tried to struggle but the more he did the tighter the mist wrapped into his body. He couldn't do anything until all that was left uncovered was his head. "Arghhhh" The surrounding mist around him disappeared and the kidnappers were gone.
"This is bad, damn this mist!...uuhhhhh, what…why do I suddenly feel so weak?" Naruto's eyes were going down. "uhhhhh " The mist that binded him not only stopped his movements but also sucked up a huge amounts of chakra that made him weak. Before finally passing out, several unknown persons landed in front of his vision. "Hi..nata"
"HINATA!" Naruto shouts as he wakes up from slumber. He wasn't in the forest anymore. The faint smell of antiseptic and medicine was present in the air. The room was painted white. He knew where he was.
"So you're awake..hmm" A silver - white haired jounin holding a pocket book appeared on the door.
"Who are you?"
"Hatake Kakashi, just another shinobi. Well Uzumaki Naruto, I think we need to talk," Kakashi looked seriously into the boy's eyes.
"….I know" A sad reply came from Naruto. Slowly then he shifted his vision to the windows beside his bed.
The morning sun was passing through them and outside, Konoha was on alert as the news of the Hyuuga Princess of being kidnapped has now been known to all.
