I do not own Naruto. I wish I did though. All I own is this lovely plot. This is a filler kinda.

Chapter 10

They rushed the unconscious women to he hospital quickly getting her into a bed. The process was grueling as Hinata had bleeding in her brain. The seal was problematic as they had to work around it in fear of activating or aggravating it more.

Soon it was over and Hinata's head had to be bandaged and she was on multiple pills causing her to be knocked out. Sasuke was a mess, he couldn't sleep, the girls had even calmed down with doing anything reacting to their fathers stress. It had been 3 days from the initial attack and the T I division much to Ibiki's delight housed the attackers, going through their minds.

The attack had been under an Elder and the Clan Head (Hiashi) order to grab the children to place the seal. It made everyone sick. They nearly killed Hinata in the process and almost ruined Sasuke's delicate position.

The hokage now had every right to step in. Hinata was not a clan member so it wasn't a "clan issue", illegal activation of her seal as Hinata didn't do anything, she was a ANBU member not mention captain—also illegal— and attempted kidnapping. T I showed that the branch members were forced so, Tsunade could offer them emancipation—which Hinata knew they would take in a heartbeat— in exchange for all of the information. With the assurance of protection the branch members spilled everything possible.

Tsunade held a meeting with all those involved. "Hiashi, Elders I understand how important you all are to Konoha but, you are not exempt from punishment. Especially, the height of the crimes you committed. Attempted kidnapping, illegal harm to ANBU captain, attempted murder, illegal use of seal, assault and battery and unprovoked harm onto an innocent person. You are NOT above the law," Tsunade growled.

"For your punishment a new Elder council will be form courtesy of myself, Hanabi, and Shikamaru. Hinata would have been involved but she wants nothing to do with you. I respect that decision. Also, Hanabi will be claimed clan head at age 17 instead of 20 and Hyūga clan members who haven't been authorized cannot come near the Uchiha family. Effective immediately," Tsunade continued.

Neji and Ko got authorized to be able be around Hinata. The Elder Council got changed and Hanabi clan training sped up. It was weeks since that and Hinata had made a full recovery. The harsh damage on her seal left her unable to walk for a long period of time and her muscles were quite weak.

It was a normal day. The gang and their kids were all at Kiba and Shino's house. Laughter bounced off the house as the kids and adults ate and shared stories. Hinata and Neji had unknowingly wore the same color headband much to everyone's laughter. Kit, Kari, MJ, Kirin, the twins Hizashi and Hitomi (Neji and TenTen's kids. They both were identical despite one being and boy and the other a girl. They act like TenTen and look like Neji's with pale gold eyes), Shikadai, Chocho and Inojin were all playing ninja split into pairs. Kit and Kari, MJ and Kirin, the twins, Shikadai and Inojin with Chocho acting as Hokage.

The adult kept their eyes on their babies as they played a type of tag with Chocho as the mediator. Shino and Kiba started serving the food in the middle of the conversation much to the children's annoyance. It was baked chicken with rice and vegetables. The kids sat on the floor of the living room with plates and the adults on the couches.

"I hate missions with Naruto for one reason. Every mission that he goes on something goes wrong," Kiba said laughing. Sakura and Sasuke gave exasperated looks as saying 'ya think'.

"Right like with Team 8 we finish early and then have fun depending on how important the mission is," Kiba said finishing his chicken and moving onto the rice.

"The best mission I had was with Team 8 like it was supposed to be hard but they made it easy,"Sasuke eyed the members of said team enviously. Shino finished his plate and gathered the finished plates from some people and washed them including all the kids.

"I honestly didn't think we'd live this long. I never thought of real peace. No ninja really wants peace I mean I know for sure we all enjoyed our jobs. When our kids get older I mean the word ninja is going to change. I'm sure it will," Neji said helping Shino dry off the dishes.

"Of course the word will change. Even when we were younger the word ninja had changed," Sasuke added.

"I want my kids to experience peace. Something we didn't even want at our age. I mean I wanted to fight and do dangerous things. I wanted to do torture which I still do now. I imagined dying on the field. I never want that for Inojin or any of the kids," Ino said thoughtfully.

"Exactly, I didn't get to have dolls or play dress up or wear makeup like the other girls. I couldn't fangirl like I wanted to. I grew up like a boy. I trained to fight, protect and serve. I was heir and I wasn't a boy like they would have wanted so they shaped me to be. I had my hair cut and styled boyish. It wasn't healthy. I had zero confidence in who I was supposed to be because I saw girls like Ino and Sakura and wondered why I could be like that or why I didn't have the option. I want my girls to choose who they want to be and how they want to be seen," Hinata said with reminiscing eyes.

"Not gonna lie to you Hina. Girl, when I first met you I thought you were a boy until I heard you talk. I saw you fight before you talked and you didn't fight with the grace that girls were usually taught to implement into their fighting styles. You fought with raw strength, speed and intimidation even though you were shy it was like it was practiced but I loved it. When you started to train with your team you gained that grace and flexibility on top of your strengths. So you have a better base in my opinion," TenTen explained.

Hinata smiled nervously," Ehh, thanks Ten. Geez I'm glad I did grow out my hair. I mean Ten you are absolutely amazing. You have loads of patience and great hand eye coordination. You also have great kinetic vision. I mean an active battlefield is your playground. We could spend all day complementing each other but the biggest matter at hand for me is protecting my family. The Hyūga won't stop. This was just a minor set back to them. I have to get stronger. Way stronger. No one will ever hurt them."

"I hear you on the protecting part. I have a real family with the man I love. I just fear that MJ won't be happy with me and Shino as parents I me-," Kiba was cut off by Naruto.

"No way. Don't even. MJ will love you guys. As long as you are open to her everything will be fine, and if she asks for her parents help her look into it. I mean I know you must be curious on her biological parents."

"We are. We really are. But, we will leave that for MJ and her curiosity," Shino spoke playing with Kirin who was playing with his fingers.

The Night went on as everyone wound down. Dinner had been served and the kids were well asleep and everyone was safely home.

"Meeting with all of Rookie 9 isn't common but it is always a pleasure," Hinata said slinging her hair back into a low pony. She was dressed in her night wear. Both were fresh out the shower ready to sleep.

"Hn"

Sasuke flopped onto the bed and quickly made himself comfortable in the bed. Hinata giggles at her husband's antics and joined him as he spooned her. Butterfly kisses peppered her shoulders and soft moans escaped her lips. Hinata turned her head towards her husband and captured his lips in a heated kiss. After that, moans, groans and spanks Hinata gave to Sasuke was that was heard.
