"W-what?" Naruto asked as he fell to his knees.
Hinata looked at him, "N-Naruto, this l-looks exactly l-like 9, the w-woman that h-helped m-me. O-Orochimaru h-has her."
Naruto couldn't believe it, "How sure are you Hinata. My mom was reported dead lying next to my dad. They were killed stopping the 9 tails from killing me, so it could be sealed inside me. Hinata they are both supposed to be dead, they have been for eighteen years, are you telling me that Orochimaru that fucked up perverted bastard has had her this entire time!"
"I-I'm s-sorry Naruto b-but it m-makes so m-much sense, 9 lost h-her memory, she o-only remembered a b-blond man, h-he was strong, s-she thought t-that she w-was at s-some p-point pregnant. A-all her m-memories w-were hazy. S-she loved y-your n-name as w-well."
Naruto wasn't sure what to believe, he stood and grabbed her hand, he pulled her up and started to pull her towards the stairs, "N-Naruto, where a-are we going?"
"The Hokage's office, she needs to know about this, Jiraiya and Kakashi too." Naruto told her.
Hinata nodded as they ran through the streets, Naruto running only as fast as Hinata could keep up. Finally, they got to the tower and burst into Tsunade's office, noticing it was full of a large group of their friends, Naruto paused for a second, as Hinata blushed.
"Naruto this is a private meeting, what do you need." Tsunade demanded.
"Tell them Hinata." Naruto requested.
Hinata looked down, "U-Um m-most of you know a-about the w-woman that he-helped me w-while I-I was c-captive. They c-called her 9, b-but I-I saw a picture of N-Naruto's mom, 9 is K-Kushina Uzumaki."
Jiriaya was shocked, "NO! that's not possible! He would have had her for 18 years. Minato and Kushina died! They died next to eachother!"
Hinata shrunk back a bit, "I-I'm sorry b-but it's true. She h-had no memory of h-her life before Orochimaru. T-they look t-the exact s-same."
Jiraiya took charge, "Shikamaru get Inoichi now, tell him it is important." Shikamaru nodded and took off towards the Yamanaka household.
"What was this meeting all about?" Naruto asked.
Tsunade shook her head, "Naruto we are trying to figure out how we can get you out of the hole you dug yourself into."
Naruto sighed, "Right."
"How are you feeling? The burns getting better?" Tsunade asked.
"No I don't heal when my chakra is suppressed. It doesn't work that way." Naruto snapped back, he still wasn't happy with Tsunade.
Tsunade looked away, "Naruto you know that I didn't have a choice."
"Yes, you did. Tsunade you are the Hokage you have the power to say Fuck you to the councils." Naruto snapped again.
"Naruto that's enough, calm down." Kakashi told him.
"Whatever" Naruto growled.
That's when Shikamaru and Inoichi walked into the room, feeling the tension, you could cut it with a butter knife.
"I was told I was needed for another mind scan?" Inoichi asked.
Tsunade nodded, "I need you to go through Hinata's mind back to her time in captivity, you will be looking for a woman, with red hair, you will be looking for Kushina Uzumaki."
"Kushina Uzumaki?" Inoichi laughed, "Your kidding, she died 18 years ago!"
"Just do it, Hinata saw a picture of Kushina and says they are the same person. I need confirmation. Show Jiraiya, myself, and Kakashi what you see." Tsunade told him.
Inoichi nodded and ran through hand seals and placed his hand on Hinata's head. Going through her mind he grimaced as he saw some of the things Hinata was put through, finally he found a memory of the woman, when he saw her he was shocked, he let go and gasped, "Holy shit." He said before projecting it onto the wall of the room. Being respectful he only showed a picture of the woman. Everyone was shocked.
"That is Kushina Uzumaki." Jiraiya stated in shock, he couldn't believe what was happening right now. Kushina, was in Orochimaru's clutches. "Hinata why did he have her?"
Hinata kept her eyes on the floor, "H-He used her like he u-used…m-me. He used her for his own p-pleasure, h-he would beat her and abuse h-her. P-please they d-did horrible things t-to us t-they both did. K-Kushina healed m-me after t-they t-tortured me."
Jiraiya was furious, he made to move to the door when Tsunade stopped him, "Jiraiya stop, we have to plan."
Jiraiya shook his head, "Like hell! I'm going now to look for her."
Naruto nodded, "I'm coming with you."
Tsunade shook her head, "Naruto you can't leave the village, you are under investigation. If you leave now you will be labeled as a missing ninja."
"IT'S MY MOTHER! I HAVE LIVED MY ENTIRE LIFE IN THIS SHITHEAP VILLAGE. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE VILLAGERS HATES ME! WHY THE FUCK SHOULD I STAY IN THIS FUCKING VILLAGE ANYWAYS! THERE IS NOTHING LEFT FOR ME HERE. I AM GOING TO FIND MY MOTHER." Naruto screamed in anger.
He didn't see Hinata's eyes widen, nor did he notice her shrink away with tears in her eyes as her heart broke as he said that, she was here right? He still had her in the village. So why would he say that. "N-Naruto…" She said quietly, too quiet for Naruto to hear. Anko turned and looked at her though, walking over to her stealthily and hugging her.
"Naruto please calm down, you have duties, leave this to Jiraiya, we need you here." Hiashi tried to calm him, it didn't work.
"Lord Hiashi, I appreciate it, but I am on the verge of losing everything anyways. This is a chance to meet my mom, I have family, I need to find her. I have to save her. Don't you see how much this means to me? I have to do this." Naruto explained begging him to understand.
"Naruto, you can't come right now, this village needs you, whether they know it or not, you can't come on this one, I will do my best to find her." Jiraiya told him.
Naruto glared at him before turning to Kakashi, the man had been suspiciously quiet during this time, "I am going on this. If not with you then I will go alone!"
Kakashi finally spoke up, "Naruto, you have family here, what would you call me, Anko, Shizune, Iruka, Tsunade, Jiraiya, Shikamaru, Hinata, and even Hiashi, what would you call us if not family?"
Naruto looked at him, inwardly fighting with himself, he cracked, he was so angry, he had no control, "OH REALLY? WHERE THE FUCK WAS MY 'FAMILY' THE FIRST 15 YEARS OF MY LIFE? WHERE WERE YOU ALL AS I WAS BEATEN, AND HATED! MY MOTHER WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE FOR ME. YOU ALL? ABANDONED ME! THE FIRST 15 YEARS OF MY LIFE I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHO MOST OF YOU EVEN FUCKING WERE!"
They all looked at Naruto quiet, none of them had anything to say to the blonde ninja, Shikamaru was next to speak, "Naruto, you are my best friend, I know I wasn't always there for you, we are all sorry about that, but you do have a life here. Hinata needs a teacher, you are supposed to do that, you can't just leave her to someone else, she needs you. I need you here, you can't just go off for another two years. Come on man, I know you are going through a rough time, but have some faith in us man."
Naruto was standing there with his fists clenched tight, he looked at Shikamaru with tears in his eyes, slightly calmer, "She's my mom Shikamaru, she needs me, she is being tortured and abused daily, I gotta save her man."
"Naruto, Jiraiya is perfectly capable of finding Orochimaru and rescuing your mom, it won't go any faster with you there. Hinata needs you here, come on man. If Jiraiya gets a location, you can meet him there. But if you leave now, you won't have a place to bring your mom back to, clear your name first, do some missions to get on the good side of the council and then go after your mom, if she still hasn't been rescued that is." Shikamaru explained.
Naruto wanted to continue to argue, he was about to say something when he felt arms wrap around his waist from behind, he turned and saw the top of Hinata's head as she dug it into his back, "Please Naruto, we…I need you here, I need you to help me, I can't do it without you."
Naruto's heart broke as he watched Hinata cry into his back, he sighed, "Fine, on one condition, Jiraiya if you find anything, I want to know, I want to be there. Understand?"
Jiraiya nodded, "Of course, you know I will do my best, trust me as your master Naruto."
Naruto nodded, "Please find her Jiraiya, I need her now."
Jiraiya nodded, and left the room heading to pack before he left the village, Tsunade following him, wanting to say good bye to the man she loved, who knew if he would ever come back after all.
Kakashi started to walk out of the room as well, silently leaving and walking away, he wouldn't tell anyone but what Naruto had said, had really hit a nerve. He walked away, wanting time to think, he also needed to think about this new information about Kushina, she was like a mother to him in the past.
Anko waited a couple seconds before following Kakashi, wanting to make sure the man was alright.
Naruto walked out of the room next, having nothing else to say to anyone in the room. Hinata walked over to her father and hugged him, Hiashi smiled at his daughter, "Hinata, good job calming him down, you have done well. I'm proud of you."
Hinata grinned at him, "T-thank you father. I must leave, I need to make sure Naruto is okay."
Hiashi nodded and followed her out of the room leaving the others as he walked away.
Naruto walked out of the room and headed home, Hinata was following him, and he kept his senses about him as they walked away. Naruto sighed as Hinata ran to catch up to him, "Naruto, a-are you okay?"
Naruto shook his head, "No Hina, I'm not."
Hinata grabbed his hand, blushing slightly, "Naruto everything will be okay, Kushina is strong, she is so strong, she was so incredible to me."
Naruto nodded, but didn't say anything to the girl as he continued to look down at the road ahead, "N-Naruto, I-I'm sorry about e-everything. I-I'm sorry I-I didn't notice s-sooner." Hinata told him.
Naruto shook his head, "It's fine Hinata, you didn't know. Just…tell me my mom was okay last time you saw her, why did she get moved? Why couldn't she have been there when I got there?"
Hinata shook her head, "K-Kushina was f-fine last I s-saw her. S-she was happy w-when I w-was there. W-we bonded, s-she was s-so kind to me, s-she took beating f-for me, h-healed me. W-when I asked why s-she told me it was b-because I w-was like t-the child s-she never had. She treated m-me like I-I was h-her daughter. I-I miss her s-so much these days. S-she was m-moved to a-another hideout to h-help run it. S-she was a v-very skilled medic. S-She saved m-my life m-more times than I can c-count."
Naruto nodded, they walked into his house and he walked up the stairs, Hinata following him as he walked into his room, "Hina, it's been a rough day, I'm going to go to bed." He didn't wait for a reply as he shut the door and Hinata could hear him as he cried.
Hinata got a determined look on her face, "I have been dormant long enough, I know I'm not ready for anything, but Naruto needs me, He was there when I needed him most, now he needs me. I need to get stronger, so I can help Naruto, so I can save Kushina." Hinata turned around and walked into her room, changing into her pajamas before walking to Naruto's room, she knocked on the door and waited a moment, "Naruto?"
"Hinata, do you need something?" Naruto's voice came back muffled by the door.
Hinata took a deep breath and opened the door, she blushed as she saw Naruto shirtless standing there, he raised an eyebrow at her, "Uh, Hina is everything okay?"
Hinata said nothing but instead wrapped him in a hug, "Naru everything is okay." She told him with a confidence he rarely heard from her.
"Hina what are you doing in here?" Naruto asked
"I have been a-a terrible f-friend to y-you Naru, I-I'm not ready for a-a relationship, a-and I'm n-not sure I e-ever will be. B-But I h-have been a bad f-friend lately, y-you have been there when I-I needed you, n-now it's m-my turn." She finished talking and pulled Naruto towards the bed, she unmade it and climbed in herself, before Naruto climbed in after her, she blushed deeply, but hugged Naruto and laid back, laying her head on Naruto's chest. He was so warm she smiled up at him.
"Naru, everything will be okay, I promise, as strong as you are, your mother is just as strong, she will be fine." Hinata told him.
Naruto looked down at her, he still had tears in his eyes, "Hina, thank you so much." Hinata nodded and the two laid there together in bed, Hinata cuddled up to his chest, "Naruto is so warm, I feel at home here in his arms, I am glad I could make him feel better." Hinata thought to herself, she had some stuff to figure out yet, but she felt she had taken a big step up today, maybe she was finally getting better.
