Naruto woke up in the hospital, his entire body hurt, he figured it was only natural after what happened. He had lost it, he had hurt his friends, his senseis. He stood and groaned as pain flooded his muscles, but he ignored it and walked into the hallway, he sniffed the air smelling for Hinata, he found her, he stumbled to her. He opened her door and saw Tsunade standing over her.
"Tsunade, how is she?" Naruto asked as he walked towards her.
Tsunade sighed, "She is not well, she passed out before she was able to warn your team about the seals on her, as soon as they left the perimeter of the hideout the seal went off and shredded her muscles even more than they already were. I have been working on her muscles since she got back. Naruto from the scars and signs her body is giving me, she was brutally tortured almost daily by those bastards, she has not yet woken up since her muscles were shredded, but I am going to say she won't be the same person that went into that place."
Naruto nodded and sat down in a chair next to Hinata's bed, Tsunade took a break and looked over him.
"Granny, what about the rest of the team?" Naruto asked.
"You were fucking reckless Naruto. I understand what you did but it was reckless. Going into so many tails was idiotic. You are lucky Jiraiya got there when he did. You would have killed your team. You should have waited for backup when you got there. However all of that being said your team saved the Kazekage, and rescued the heir to the Hyuga clan, and fought one of the most notorious criminals in history. So I have to say while you could have done better, you are getting a promotion. According to Kakashi you took on two Akatsuki members alone and were fighting to a standstill. Then fought an army 150 ninjas strong by yourself. Noting this and other things, I have decided to promote you to Jonin. Congratulations."
Naruto nodded his thanks, "Thank you Lady Hokage" He then looked at Hinata inspecting her, she had a hospital gown on, but her hands and arms were covered in bruises, burns, cuts, and scars. He sighed, she had certainly gone through hell. He brushed her hair out of her face and saw the scar on her face. His fist clenched as he did. It was unforgivable what they had done to her.
That was when Anko walked in, followed by Hiashi Hyuuga. "Where's Kakashi?" Naruto immediately asked.
Anko spoke up, "He is in his own hospital bed, he was stabbed in the chest by Orochimaru. It was my fault, when you went into, well your rampage, I got distracted, Kakashi saved me, but took a blade to the chest to do it."
Naruto sighed then Hiashi spoke up, "Naruto my thanks to you, you rescued my daughter and brought her back to me. I am forever in your debt."
Naruto nodded to the man, "I merely kept my word, I apologize for taking so long."
Hiashi smiled a slight smile, "There is no reason for apologies, I am happy she is finally back with us. I only hope that she can recover."
Naruto nodded again and the three of them looked to Tsunade.
"Lady Tsunade, please will you tell us everything."
"Right well, as you all know there were complications in the rescue to start with, several seals went off tearing her muscles to pieces. I have been working solely on those first. I have them so she can move. But she will have to build up the muscle strength." Tsunade started, before Naruto put his hands over Hinata, sending out chakra he saw the seals on her wrists and ankles. He studied them for a while before sighing.
"Kabuto carved seals into her. Most people wouldn't be able to distinguish them as two different seals. The first one is the one that tore her muscles to shreds, I will need Jiraiya's help to undo those. The next seals are Chakra seals. They prohibit her from using chakra, if she channels any chakra she will be electrocuted. These are meant to keep her as a prisoner for life. They are incredibly difficult to undo. With Jiraiya and myself we can undo them however. Please continue Lady Hokage." Naruto told the group when he had finished his inspection, his hours and hours of shadow clones studying seals coming in handy.
Tsunade nodded and continued, "Hinata was beaten, burned, cut, any form of torture you can think of her body shows signs of being subjected to it. Her knee was shattered some time ago, it healed incorrectly, I will have to rebreak it and heal it. She was injected with multiple toxins, these are of Orochimaru's making and make her incredibly sensitive, it is used to make torture more effective. These toxins are very deeply embedded and will take time to remove. She is being kept under sedation for now, so she won't wake up to the pain she is currently in. She will be in the hospital for the next week at the very least. Several weeks of rehabilitation will be required for her knee and then she will be allowed to start building up more of her leg muscles, as well as start training to be a kunoichi that's if she even wants to continue her training. After an event like this most ninja would retire. Although she was not raped, your seal held true Hiashi, it was you wasn't it?" Tsunade informed herself.
Hiashi nodded, "It was indeed, I placed it on her after The Cloud village attempted to kidnap her years ago."
Naruto swallowed hard, this was rough he knew it would be bad but this bad. That bastard had done too much.
Tsunade nodded, "I am going to take her into surgery now. After the surgery we will keep her on pain medication she will need it."
"Naruto, this is an order from your Hokage, go take a shower, change clothes, and come back. I won't begin the surgery until you get back, we have to prep her first anyways." Tsunade told the boy.
Naruto glared at her, but nodded anyways. He made a hand seal and flashed away to his home.
20 minutes had passed and Naruto flashed back to the hospital he peeked in and saw Tsunade still wasn't ready, she was still working on Hinata.
Naruto walked past and went to check on Kakashi, when he got there Anko was there as well sitting by his side. The two were holding hands and Anko was smiling as they talked.
"Kakashi, I'm glad to see you are okay." Naruto said making himself known.
Anko pulled her hand away quickly as she blushed, not used to being caught displaying such affection publicly. Naruto grinned at them, they were a good couple, he liked her, even though she was a bit crazy.
"Naruto, all healed up I see." Kakashi eye smiled, "I'm glad we all made it out with Hinata. You did it you finally saved her."
Naruto nodded, "I'm still worried about her though. She went through a lot. Did Anko tell you everything already?"
Kakashi sobered up at that, "Yes she did. I'm sorry Naruto, you are going to have to help her through this. I'm not sure she will let anyone else help her after all."
Naruto nodded and sighed, he was about to continue when Jiraiya walked in, "Naruto let's go, we need to unseal Hinata."
Naruto grinned, "Yes sensei." the two walked out and headed to Hinata's room. Tsunade was about to take her into surgery when the two walked in.
Jiraiya studied the seals before shaking his head, "These are nasty seals, Naruto they need to be unsealed all at the same time. We will both create three clones and unseal all limbs at the same time. Good thing she is unconscious for this. It's going to hurt like hell."
Naruto nodded and the two seal masters got to work on the complicated seals.
Finally after another thirty minutes they had Hinata unsealed and Tsunade took her into surgery.
Naruto sat down in a seat in Hinata's room to wait when Hiashi walked in, "Naruto, have you eaten?"
Naruto shook his head, "No Lord Hiashi, I have not."
Hiashi nodded, "Good, if you will please come with me, we shall eat dinner, my treat. They will be in surgery for a few hours, we won't miss anything."
Naruto nodded and followed Hiashi to a nice restaurant, he had never been in here before. They were immediately led to a table in the back where they knelt and ordered. Their food came immediately as the two began to talk. Hiashi asking Naruto of his training.
After they finished they walked back to the hospital. It was getting late and Hinata had yet to come out of surgery. But the two sat and waited in her room.
Finally Tsunade wheeled Hinata's bed in, "The surgery went well. Hinata's knee is set properly and we will give her a knee brace when she leaves. Tomorrow I will work on the toxins, I have some other business to attend to, being Hokage and all, Hinata may wake up sometime tonight or tomorrow, everyone is different." Tsunade informed the two.
Naruto nodded and Hiashi grinned slightly ,"Right now that she is out of surgery I to have matters to attend to, Naruto I trust you will be here when she wakes up, please do not allow her to wake up without a familiar face nearby." Hiashi asked Naruto.
Naruto nodded, "I won't be going anywhere. My place is here with her."
Hiashi nodded and left Tsunade and Naruto alone in the room with Hinata.
"Naruto, when she does wake up, physical contact needs to stay at a minimum. Seriously I wouldn't touch her if I were you, after everything she has gone through, she won't want physical contact. She is going to be scared, even of you." Tsunade told him.
Naruto sighed but nodded in confirmation before Tsunade walked out of the room and Naruto sat by Hinata's bed. He took her hand and felt it. It was rough, so rough. Her wrists scars from electrical burns and ropeburns. She was tied up, a lot from the looks of the calloused scarred skin. She was pale, so pale, much paler than the normal Hyuga fair skin.
He held her hand up to his forehead as tears welled in his eyes, Hinata, his Hinata was put through so much hell. She was so innocent before all of this began, before Kabuto. She had been so sweet, she didn't deserve this. He had been unable to save her.
It was a few hours later that Hinata's eyes started to open. Naruto saw it as he looked down at her.
Everything was a blur for Hinata she opened her eyes and looked around. All she saw was yellow and what looked like a head before she was back out cold.
Her eyes fluttered open again after a few minutes this time everything a bit more clear. She looked around and saw Naruto, her eyes widened as she recognized him. A look of pure terror passed her eyes as she pulled her hand away from him and meekly backed as far as she could away from him.
Naruto recognized the look of terror and his eyes widened, he realized she must have thought that he was Kabuto.
"Hinata, it's okay, everything's fine. It's me Naruto. You are in the hospital in Konoha, you are safe." Naruto then acted on instinct and went to hug the girl, as soon as he did she shrieked.
Naruto backed away for a moment as she started breathing fast and hard. She was terrified of him.
"Hinata, it's just me, I won't hurt you, I promise." Naruto said gently, soothing the poor girl.
"N-N-Naruto?" Hinata asked shakily as he nodded.
"Yeah that's right Hinata it's really me." Naruto told her.
Hinata nodded meekly, not saying anything else as she looked down at her knees, allowing her hair to fall over her face hiding the vicious scat that adorned her face.
Naruto looked at her, "Hinata I'm so sorry, it's all my fault all of it. Please forgive me." Naruto pleaded for her with tears welling up in his eyes.
Hinata's eyes widened once more, "N-N-Naruto, n-no, it isn't-your fault. I-I...i-it was m-my fault. I-I hurt y-you. I-I b-betrayed y-you. I-I didn't b-believe you. Y-you w-warned m-me about K-K-K-K...him...I-I d-deserved i-it all. I-I'm a-a m-mutt. I-I brought i-it all o-on m-myself." Tears began to run down her cheeks as she said this.
Naruto was taken aback, "Hina, no. It isn't your fault. Please don't talk like that. You are not a mutt. You are Hinata Hyuga, the strongest most beautiful woman I have ever met. You only deserve great things. Not the torture that happened to you in there."
Hinata looked at him through teary eyes. "I-I'm not b-beautiful a-anymore, I-I n-never was b-but now l-look at m-me! I'm scarred, I'm u-ugly. I am disgusting. I-I f-feel s-so d-dirty." The young woman broke down sobbing at this point.
Naruto's heart broke for the woman he loved as she sobbed. "Hinata, no you are still beautiful. I-I love you Hina."
Hinata didn't respond but turned away from the blonde ninja, she weakly pulled the hospital sheets and covers up to her head as she did. Hiding herself away from Naruto as she sobbed. Hinata cried herself to sleep as Naruto sat there, for once unsure what to say, what to do. All his training, all his hard work and he was useless. He truly hated this feeling, being useless.
PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!
So Hinata is back, but obviously hurt. Please let me know what you guys all think of the first Hinata recovery chapter. She is obviously in a dark place and Naruto has no idea how to fix it. One last thing! If any of my readers are good artists please draw me pictures from this story I would love it. One of Naruto in his black assassin's cloak would be badass. Pictutes of Hinata stuff like that please! Fan art would be badass! Thanks again!
