Chapter 9: Shouting match
The whole village seemed to quake as Tsunade's voice thundered in anger toward the village men who had lied to her about the circumstances of the night before, where Naruto has supposable 'attacked' innocent villagers without cause. Villagers looked up from the streets below towards her office, with some surprise and fear on their faces, on the bright side, at least she wasn't yelling at them. The Hokage was definitely a person to fear, and not because of her strength.
Hinata opened the window of Naruto's hospital room but immediately closed it due to the noise (if it could even be called such). She looked back toward the teen on the bed, who was watching her intently. She smiled lightly and his expression seemed to perk up a bit. She had been given the privledge to change his bandages today, lucky her. The Hyuuga pulled up a chair and sat in front of Naruto and helped him remove his shirt, he winced as he lifted his arms but was silent as usual. She removed the old, stained bandages that had turned brown on one side from the dried blood and placed them in the basket and then took out the small white canister of ointment and applyed it to the wounds. The injuries seemed to almost steam and smoke as the clear gell touched it, beginning to heal the second she began to gently rub it on. As she wrapped the injuries she could feel waves of heat seem to radiate from Naruto occasionally. Hinata blushed at this, yet Naruto acted as if it didn't affect him at all, she could only guess why. She stepped back to view her handiwork when she was done. He also looked down at himself and back up toward the girl, blinking slightly. She grinned at him and helped him slip his shirt over his head. She had asked Tsunade if she could take Naruto out for a while on a walk around the village, or if he couldn't walk for a long period of time, she would just push him in a wheel chair. The Hokage had agreed without an argument, after all, if Naruto wasn't starring at Hinata it was out the window.
Naruto felt the warmth of the sunlight wash over his face and body and he rested his head back against the wheel chair and soaked it in, after all, it had been a while sense he could actually enjoy such a thing. Hinata smiled down at him, almost laughing at his reaction. She pushed the chair down the walkway of the hospital and out onto the sidewalk. The girl took a right turn and made sure she took her time when she noticed him eagerly looking around at his new surroundings, his small pointed ears twitching ever-so-slightly. She suddenly saw a Green Blur rush past them with Neji, Tenten, Ino, Shikamaru, and Chouji trailing in at last,
"Lee-kun! Whats going on!" Hinata called, curious. Some dust rose up from the ground as Rock Lee came to a skidding stop and ran back toward Hinata and stopped in front of her, still jogging in place.
"What's going on Lee-kun? Where is everyone going?" She asked tentatively.
"Oh Hinata-san, Kiba started a fight at a stand, and Shino's having a hard time breaking it up," He explained as quick as he could between his panting breaths.
"Kiba-kun? What happened to make him start a fight?"
"I'm not sure, none of us are. Good to see you out of the hospital Naruto-kun! Sorry Hinata-san!" Lee said with a wave before quickly turning back around and sprinting off. The rest of the nins following, their chests heaving as they attempted to keep up. Hinata jogged off at the fastest pace the wheel chair would allow, Naruto, enjoying the ride with the wind blowing through the golden stands of his hair. Shouting could soon be heard loudly in the crowded street corner followed by a loud crash. Hinata managed to push herself and Naruto through the crowd and managed to find the other side. The first thing she saw was Kiba holding a man by the throat against the wall of the small stand and that Shino's bugs were wrapped around his legs and Neji and Lee were trying to hold back his arms.
"HOW COULD YOU EVEN LIE ABOUT NARUTO LIKE THAT YOU BASTARD! he shouted, his voice a mix with a low growl that was emitting from the depths of his throat in a vibrating drone. The person choked, being almost unable to breath, and gritted his teeth in a cruel smirk,
"T-the m-monster will come loose a-and kill us, h-he'll betray us," he answered in a raspy voice, or as much as he could. Kiba banged the man up against the wood in a burst of anger,
"HE WOULD NEVER BETRAY US! HE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A HERO FOR ALL THAT HE HAS DONE FOR THIS VILLAGE! AND HERE YOU GO TALKING SHIT TO THE HOKAGE! YOU LIED TO ALL OF US YOU BASTARD! I CAN'T BELIEVE I EVEN CONSIDERED YOUR WORDS LET ALONE BELIEVED THEM!" Kiba shouted in pure fury, his arms beginning to shake from the pair of strong ninjas that were trying to pull them back.
"Kiba-san is right! You had no right to go against Naruto, personally I wish the Hokage actualy had a good punishment for you," Lee said in agreement.
"Kiba...kun..." Hinata said quietly as she began to slowly approach him. Even Rock Lee was having a hard time pulling the Inuzuka back, Shikamaru kneeled close to the ground and did a seal with his hands, his special shadow jutsu soon getting hold of Kiba's body. The man fell to the ground in a heap, grasping his throat in pain and taking in deep breaths to regain himself.
"Damn't let me go Shikamaru!" He ordered, attempting to release himself but it obviously proved useless. Hinata repeated her words and Kiba looked toward her, his muscles slowly beginning to loose their tenseness. The man quickly scampered off, or as fast as he could. Shikamaru slowly released the jutsu and Kiba went to his knees and Hinata kneeled down in front of him,
"You didn't have to do that Kiba-kun..." she said her eyes drifting downward.
"Well...I just figured he deserved it...no one lies about my friends like that and gets away with it, let alone convince everyone its true," he said with a small grin. Hinata helped Kiba to his feet and Neji, Lee, Shino, and Shika patted the inu-boy on the shoulders,
"Don't worry, that troublesome guy tricked us all too," Shikamaru stated. Kiba sighed and nodded,
"Guess you're right..."
Hinata smiled lightly at him and gave him a VERY quick hug while murmuring a small 'arrigato' and going back to Naruto and wheeling him off, the squeeking of the wheels the only noise that was made as the circle of people went silent.
