Kabuto threw Hinata into the cell locked it and explained to the woman in there the instructions. She was to heal Hinata and take care of her. He then walked away.

Hinata didn't get up, she didn't move as the woman walked over to her.

"It's okay, don't move I am going to heal you." The woman started to heal her before turning her over to her back and healing her front.

Hinata opened her eyes and looked at the woman. She was older than Hinata, about in her 40's yet still gorgeous, she had long read hair and violet eyes. She smiled at Hinata and it was a beautiful smile. The woman was giving off a kind vibe.

"Oh my, they really did a number on you didn't they?" The woman asked her.

Hinata didn't respond just looked down.

The woman sighed, "Alright, what's your name?"

Again Hinata gave no response.

"Look, we are going to be cellmates for a while, it's not a great life by any means. It is painful, it is going to suck. But we can make the both of it. I will be here for you. So what is your name sweetheart?"

Hinata looked up at her, "My name is Hinata Hyuuga. What is yours?"

The woman shrugged, "To tell you the truth I don't remember anything from my past life, before being stuck in here about 16 years ago. I have been a slave, and testing subject since then, I am called 9 I don't know why that number but it is clearly to keep me from feeling I am actually a person."

Hinata nodded and tried to lift herself up only to yelp in pain and drop back to the ground. The woman shook her head, "Don't try to move yet. I still have a lot of healing to do. Why don't you try to sleep, we can talk more when you wake up. It is going to take me a while to heal you."

Hinata nodded and laid her head back on the ground thinking about Naruto. She thought about how stupid she had been. She was likely never going to see him again, she would never be able to apologize for what she had done to him. She hated herself for falling for this. Finally the pain pushed her over the edge and she passed out with tears rolling down her cheek.Naruto walked into the gate and was immediately summoned to the Hokage's office. He walked into the office and was asked for the update on his training. Naruto told the old man what he had accomplished and the old Sarutobi sighed.

...

"Naruto there is something I have to tell you." The old man told the boy.

Naruto was immediately worried, "What happened?"

Hiruzen shook his head, "Hinata Hyuuga has been kidnapped and taken from the village."

Naruto was shocked, "W-what? When? How?"

Hiruzen sighed again, "She was taken about two weeks ago. There was very little sign of her, we know she was impaled at some point, her blood was found on a tree outside of the village. Kabuto was with her, it would seem that he is the kidnapper."

Naruto was pissed his heart just took a huge shock. He was struggling with his anger, until Kakashi hugged him.

"It's okay Naruto there is nothing you could have done. We will get her back." Kakashi said then turned to Hiruzen, "Where has she been taken?"

Hiruzen shook his head, "I don't know. We have no further information. Naruto I need you to report to the Hyuuga complex immediately."

Naruto looked at him, "Why the hell do I need to do that?"

Hiruzen gave him a look, "Hiashi Hyuuga has asked to see you. He is Hinata's father, on top of that I am telling you too."

Naruto nodded and disappeared in a whirl of wind. He appeared at the entrance to the Hyuuga complex and walked in.

The gaurds walked him in and showed him to Hiashi's office. Naruto walked in and bowed to the man, following protocol for the situation.

"Lord Hiashi you summoned me?" Naruto addressed the man.

The man nodded and motioned for Naruto to sit, "Naruto Uzumaki. It is nice to actually meet a hero like yourself."

Naruto raised an eyebrow at the man and he continued, "Naruto I am the head of one of the most important clans in the village, I know what you are, I also know who you are. Your father was a good friend of mine. I know you don't think highly of me Naruto, after what happened between myself and my daughter." Hiashi got up and activated seals in the room making sure they could not be spied on. "Naruto I want you to understand, this clan is currently run by the elders. I had no control in not training Hinata. I was told to abandon her teachings due to her being inadequate in the style. It was not of my own choosing Naruto. In fact it killed me to do so."

Naruto continued to stare at him and Hiashi continued, "As you know my daughter was kidnapped. We don't know who did it but we will find out and I will do my absolute best to get her back. Even if it kills me, but I will need your help in a couple aspects."

Naruto nodded, "What could you possibly need me for?"

Hiashi nodded, "Naruto as you know my daughter was quite smitten for you before that bastard Kabuto jumped in and ruined things, I am confident she will eventually go back to being smitten with you if we ever do get her back. Understand Naruto I have to look into the future moves ahead if we are to make this work. Before your parents died we were going to conjoin our clans, Via you and Hinata. Minato and I made an agreement, that Hinata would be promised to you, in reality though we only did it as a way to fend off the elders of my clan. Had Hinata found actual love or you for that matter we would have called it off. We only arranged it to help the both of you out in the long run. Now we can keep that arrangement once you are acknowledged by the public as your father's son. You have to win the exams though. If you do not win the exams it is all moot. The elders will not accept you as a suitor for her. Naruto, for her you have to win these exams, you cannot lose. When you bring Hinata back, things will happen in the clan. I will be depending on you for help. I cannot reveal what or how but I will let you know when the time comes. For now you have to win."

Naruto nodded, his respect for Hiashi skyrocketing as the man had just humbled himself to Naruto. Hiashi then let Naruto excuse himself and Naruto headed to the stadium with a new resolve. He was going to be first up and he had to win. Anything short and even if he saved Hinata he would not be able to have her.

Naruto arrived at the Stadium and walked in, more focused than ever. He and the other contestants gathered into the center and were told the rules. They all nodded and headed up to the top, all except for Neji and Naruto.

Naruto looked at Neji, "You hurt Hinata, you almost killed her. I'm going to kick your ass."

Neji laughed, "You can't even touch me! You are almost as pitiful as that bitch Hinata you saved. Although it was for nothing. She is gone, and good riddance, she was a terrible heiress, weak and pitiful."

Naruto glared at him not saying a word, but releasing his weight seals.

The proctor said go, and Naruto disappeared from view. He reappeared behind Neji and kicked only for Neji to block, "You will have to try harder to beat me weakling."

Naruto grinned as he pulled out his sword Kitsune. He grinned and jumped back, as soon as he landed he swung his sword after channeling wind chakra through it. The blast of wind was huge, Neji had no chance to block it or dodge. At least that was what Naruto had thought. Neji started spinning and emitting chakra from his chakra points. "Rotation!" the blast of wind dissipated and Naruto frowned. Neji ran forward and got into another position "Eight Trigrams: 64 Palms" Naruto grinned as Neji ran forward stabbing with his fingers he went through the entire technique but Naruto blocked every strike, striking Neji's pressure points as he blocked. Neji stepped back and dropped to his knees.

Naruto grinned as he turned and did a roundhouse kick to Neji's face. Neji flew across the stadium before landing.

Neji climbed to his feet cursing, "What the fuck was that?"

Naruto laughed, "I'm faster than you, even when you use that technique. I blocked and countered every time you struck at me. It was easy really. You are slow."

Neji was furious and charged towards Naruto again throwing palm strikes. Naruto grinned and blocked every strike.

"I found out some about you Neji, you think because you are so strong and marked into the branch family anyways that destiny is against you that fate says you are strong and others are weak. Well destiny said I would never make it this far. Fate told me i could never beat a genius like you. But Neji I said FUCK FATE!" With that Naruto landed a haymaker and launched Neji away. Naruto appeared next to him and hammer fisted him down into the ground. A crater formed and Naruto had his sword to Neji's neck. The proctor called the match and Naruto sheathed his sword. He offered Neji a hand up, "Neji, Hinata loved you, she begged me to talk to you a while ago, to show you that your bullshit destiny spiel is just that. Neji I am hated by everyone in the village, that is my destiny to be hated. To be a monster, I said to hell to that. I made it my mission to protect everyone. I will be the Hokage, even though I was dead last in my class. I am here standing next to you the rookie of the year and having beat you. Fate is bullshit. Think on it. Oh and if you ever insult Hinata like that again, I won't be holding back. Understand?"

Neji nodded and shook his hand, "You truly are impressive Naruto. Good luck in this tournament."
