Naruto waited while Hinata sobbed, she wasn't turning back towards him anytime soon and he wracked his brain for what to say, while he was good somehow at convincing bad guys to turn good, he had no idea what to say here.

"Hinata please turn around, talk to me, come on, I'm here for you." Naruto pleaded with the sad girl. She didn't respond but dug deeper into the covers as she hid from him.

Naruto sighed, she was worse off than he had expected. She wouldn't even turn to face him.

"Hina, come on, I won't judge you, I am here for you. I'm trying to help you. If you're worried about the scars I'm sure Tsunade can heal them for you." Naruto said trying once again, but to no avail. He didn't say anything else though as the poor raven haired girl burrowed deeper into the covers not wanting the world to see her for the filth she was. That is all she was, filth, dirty, used, a disgusting mutt. That's what she had been for the last two years. That's what she would always be, she thought. Hinata cried harder, her father was probably going to scold her, the elders would look down on her even more. They all already hated her., now things were going to be worse.

She had given away clan secrets, they were forced out of her. Orochimaru was very efficient at coercing her to give away the secrets of the clan through torture. Hinata bit her lip, her body now shaking as she sobbed harder. Thinking of everything that was to come. She wished she would have died. She would have at least brought more honor to herself. Now she was just pitiful. She hated herself almost as much as she hated Kabuto.

She kept wallowing in the self pity she was in, unable to think about anything productive but only how terrible she was. Who on earth would want her now. Kabuto had scarred her, he had marked her as his. In more ways than one. Then she felt a hand on her back, she stiffened as she expected pain to come, she expected someone to grab a handful of her hair and yank her out of the bed, to smack her around.

The pain never came however, instead a pleasant sensation washed over her as Naruto ran his hand through her hair. It was soothing for her. She let out a slight sigh as Naruto continued to stroke her hair, calming her down as he brushed through it. She was sure it wasn't pleasant as her hair had been retched ever since she was taken captive. Yet Naruto kept doing it and it kept calming her.

Hinata felt her eyes getting heavy, before finally she fell asleep the most peaceful sleep she had had in awhile.

Naruto sighed as she finally fell asleep. Brushing his hands through her hair had worked. Stood up and walked out of the room for a moment, he went and got a drink from the cafeteria. He was away for half an hour before walking back to her room he was down the hall from it when he heard her scream.

His eyes widened as he shot into action forming a hand seal and flashing next to her bedside where he had placed a seal. He wanted to place one on her but she wouldn't let him touch her yet.

When he saw her he realized she was just having a nightmare but it was a bad one. He put his hand on her and gently shook her trying to wake her from her nightmare, however as soon as he put his hand on her shoulder she settled slightly.

He sighed it seemed like her nightmare was over and she continued to sleep.

The next day Tsunade had come into Hinata's room. Naruto grinned as he saw the woman, Hinata just looked up at her, with slight fear in her eyes.

"Hinata," Naruto spoke up, "This is Lady Tsunade, the 5th Hokage. She came to the village after Anko almost died, and fixed her spinal cord. She is the best medic ninja in the world, and she is personally looking over your recovery."

Hinata didn't say anything but just looked up at the blonde woman, kind of scared of her.

Tsunade nodded and stepped even closer, "Hinata, I am going to need to run a few tests. You have toxins in your body and blood stream, I need to know how much, and of what so that I can figure out how to counter them and make you better."

Hinata's eyes widened in pure terror as Tsunade pulled out a needle and some vials for blood. She moved away to the far edge of the bed getting as far away from Tsunade as she could.

Tsunade sighed, "Hinata I am not like Orochimaru I only want to help you. To do that I need a blood sample."

Naruto held his hand out to Hinata, "It's going to be alright Hina, I promise. I'm here for you."

Hinata looked at his hand for a moment before taking it in hers allowing him to lend her strength. She scooted closer and held an arm out to Tsunade who pricked the needle into a vein with practiced ease and allowed the blood to flow into the vials. She gathered several vials before pulling the needle out and healing the entry point with a quick healing jutsu.

"There! All done! That wasn't too bad was it?" Tsunade asked her.

Hinata shook her head but still didn't say anything. She did look at Naruto however thankful that he was here. She still didn't say a word, but tried to convey to him that she was in fact thankful.

Tsunade grinned at her and told her, "Hinata everything is going to be fine from here on out. I am going to be your doctor and I will have to run tests but I am only going to make you better. With that Tsunade headed out the door and right before exiting said, "Oh and Hinata your father told me he will be coming shortly to see you."

Hinata's eyes were once again as wide as an owls as she immediately thought the worse. Her father the man who she had never been able to please was coming. This could only be bad her father had never been a man that accepted failure. And that's all she was. She sat in silence as Naruto tried to figure out what was wrong. She just didn't want to talk. She didn't have it in her at the moment.

An hour later and Hiashi showed up. When he entered the room Hinata painfully pushed herself into a sitting position to be respectful. Though she could not bring herself to meet the man's eyes.

"Naruto, could you please give us a few moments?" Hinata's father asked.

Naruto nodded, "Yes of course Lord Hiashi, Naruto smiled at Hinata and walked out of the room.

Hiashi waited for a moment, unsure quite what to say.

"Father, I-I'm s-sorry." Hinata stated tears forming in her eyes once again.

Hiashi tilter his head, "Hinata, my child what could you possibly be apologizing for?"

Hinata looked down, "I-I f-failed you f-father, I l-let myself b-be c-captured and someone a-almost got t-their h-hands on t-the b-byakugan. C-clan s-secrets w-were taken. I-I even t-told O-Orochimaru s-some of o-our s-secrets. B-but h-he...h-he t-tortured t-them o-out of m-me." Hinata shivered tears spilling over as she thought about the things that bastard had done to her.

Hiashi shook his head, "Hinata, I don't care about any of that. I'm just glad you are home safe. I know in the past I have done you wrong, I was always the head of the clan before being your father. I am so sorry for that Hinata. When you were taken, I...I realized my mistakes I can only hope that you can forgive me. I have been such a terrible father since your mother died."

Hinata was speechless, she had thought her father would be mad at her, a weight lifted from her shoulders slightly as she bit her lip and Hiashi went to hug his daughter.

She pulled back slightly, stiffening as he did, he had not shown her affection in so long. Finally she relaxed a bit. Hiashi pulled back and still Hinata didn't speak. He smiled slightly at her.

"I fear I must go now, I will leave you in Naruto's capable hands. He has done so much for you."

With that Hiashi walked out of the room and crossed paths with Naruto.

"Lord Hiashi, how did it go?" Naruto asked the Hyuga clan head.

"She thought I was going to be mad at her, I was such a terrible father to her Naruto." The man responded.

Naruto placed a hand on his shoulder, "It's okay, you two will figure it out. Have faith in her. She will come out of this eventually."

Hiashi nodded and grinned slightly at the boy, "You have done so much for her Naruto, please continue to be good to her. I leave her in your hands for now. She will need your support now more than ever, you have always been a beacon of hope for her."

Naruto nodded and bowed before taking his leave.

Hiashi watched the boy walk away before shaking his head and thinking to himself, "Minato, Kushina, you two ought to be proud of your son, he has such potential more so than even you Minato. He works hard and is a good person. I know somewhere you are smiling down so proud of him." With that Hiashi walked away to attend his business.

Naruto walked into Hinata's room and she looked up at him, he smiled at her but she just looked back at him with empty eyes.

"Your father has missed you a lot since you were taken." Naruto told her.

Hinata didn't say anything but just nodded, Naruto sighed and sat in his seat by her bed. He pulled out a scroll and began to study it. He sat there studying for a while until Hinata spoke up, her voice soft.

"Why are you here?" She asked.

Naruto smiled looking up at her, "Why wouldn't I be here? I am planning on being with you through most of this. I'm not going to leave your side."

Hinata bit her lip, "I-I'm n-not worth y-your time."

Naruto shook his head, "Hinata, what are you talking about?"

"N-nothing, I-I just...I-I'm not w-worthy o-of your t-time. I-I'm trash."

Naruto looked at her sternly. "I'm not sure where you are getting that, but you are certainly not trash. You are a wonderful person."

Hinata looked down, "I-I'm s-sorry." with that she stopped talking, turning away from him and pulling the covers up over herself all the way, hiding from the world.

Naruto frowned shaking his head, Hinata was in bad shape.

...

A few hours later and Shikamaru walked through the door, "Hinata, how are you?"

Hinata turned over and saw Shikamaru standing there. Her eyes widened and she nodded at him. Still not saying much. Shikamaru nodded, "Well we are all glad to have you back, I look forward to working as a team with you, though word is Naruto here is a jonin now. So how our team will work from here I'm not sure." Hinata's eyes widened, Naruto was a jonin now, she had missed so much. She finally spoke up.

"N-Naruto, y-you made j-jonin? W-when? H-how much d-did I-I m-miss?" Hinata stuttered out looking down.

Naruto laughed, "You didn't miss much in regards to me, I trained and looked for you. I won the Chuunin exams, after learning that you were missing and having a meeting with your dad, where he told me if I wanted any future with you I had to win the exams or the elders of your clan wouldn't accept me. So I won the exams, then had to go find Tsunade, to come back and heal Anko. After that Jiraiya and I went on a training trip in which we checked every single hideout we knew about of Orochimaru's, we didn't stop looking. After that I had to train a year with Itachi, and continue looking for you. Using other means. After that I returned to Konoha to tell the new Hokage that I was going to keep looking for you. That was when we were told the Akatsuki, a group of rogue super ninja who are after Jinchuuriki, had kidnapped Gaara, the Kazekage. Who also happens to be a Jinchuuriki. We went after them found them and one of them had information on where you were. So then we came and found you. Tsunade just now promoted me to Jonin for my hand in saving you and the Kazekage. Like I said, you didn't miss much for me."

Hinata nodded, "Y-you r-really looked f-for m-me t-that m-much?"

Shikamaru laughed, "He never stopped. He was called back to Konoha to do missions and he straight faced told the Hokage No he wasn't going to."

Hinata shook her head, "W-why?"

Naruto grinned, "Because I love you Hinata, I couldn't leave you in Orochimaru's clutches."

Hinata nodded, "T-thank y-you."

Naruto nodded, before looking at Shikamaru, "Whats up?"

"Well, I saw your Flying Thundergod technique and I had an idea, I want you to show it to me, and give me a rundown on how it works." Shikamaru responded before looking at Hinata, "Do you mind if I borrow Naruto for a while?"

Hinata shook her head but didn't speak.

Naruto nodded and stood up before walking out on his way out he looked back, "Try to get some sleep beautiful."

Hinata nodded but didn't look up. She laid down and turned over thinking about the past couple years.

It was a few minutes later when her door opened again, she turned over and looked up seeing an elderly man, he had bandages over half of his face, and his right arm was in a sling and bandaged. Several ANBU followed him in. They closed the door and began to put seals on the door and window.

"Hinata Hyuga, my name is Danzo Shimura." The man then grinned a dark grin.
