Kitsune and Dragon
I don't own Naruto but I wish I do.
Chapter 2: New Additions
Two months after Denko and Naruto were brought to the Hyuuga estate was a time for celebration, some say it was a Christmas present that took the long way to get there, the reason was that the Hyuuga heir was born, Hinata. A healthy newborn girl with a tuft of blue-black hair and easily recognizable Hyuuga eyes. A scene that touched her parent's hearts happened when Hiashi brought Naruto to see Hinata. When Naruto was close enough his tail tickled Hinata and she grabbed the tail and proceeded to snuggle with it. Naruto, only two months old, simply snuggled with her and they fell asleep together. Hizashi, Hiashi's twin brother, was entertaining his son, Neji, and Denko. Apparently during the two months that the boys were together they became close friends and even partners in 'crime'. They had learned that if either one of them dropped food on the floor someone would get it. So somehow when one of them would throw their food on the floor, a servant or whoever was lucky enough to get the job of feeding them would bend over to get it off the floor as soon as possible, and as soon as they did they would find the boys experimenting what their reaction would be when certain foods or drinks would be put in/on certain places of their body and clothes. Soon the boys had an even greater challenge: doing the same thing when the servants were using the Byakugan to watch them and avoid the mess, with a sixty percent success rate and dropping fast.
Over the next year Denko and Neji got bored with making a mess at meal times after they had a ninety-five percent success rate at 'beating' the Byakugan for a week straight. Now they have moved to roaming the estate and the park and doing harmless pranks since they were only two. At the same time, Naruto and Hinata started to do the same thing that Denko and Neji did but not to the same extreme, but they preferred to see how long the servants would take to notice that the food was in their hair, pockets, or stuck to various parts of their person. In all of Konoha, the Hyuuga clan rapidly became known as the most vigilant clan since the Kyuubi attacked but only those who went to the park while the Uzumaki and Hyuuga children were there.
No one saw a Hyuuga without an Uzumaki in the same room, unless of course their prank involved them being in separate rooms. Neji was always with Denko and Hinata with Naruto. Years went by Neji and Denko started at the academy when they were six and that same year Hanabi was born. But those two events brought new fears to the Hyuuga; the boys were learning to be shinobi beyond what they were taught at home. Hanabi was even worse, whenever she had a dirty diaper everyone would know because of the smell, even people who happened to be a block away and downwind had the 'pleasure' to smell it. After a week it was Naruto who gave the idea to suck it up and put the vapors in little tablets that broke open shortly after a small amount of chakra was applied to them. Everyone in the compound was required to carry a large amount of empties with them and learn the jutsu that sucked the noxious vapors from the air. After just one of these stink bombs went off in Iruka's pocket when demonstrating a jutsu for the class gave everyone a new reason why to fear the Hyuuga clan; the Byakugan, the Jyuuken fighting style, and the Hanabi Death Bombs.
Over the years Hiashi had noticed a change in his heir, something that he investigated while Naruto and Hinata slept together- they refused to be separated unless they 'had to go potty'- with his Byakugan. He noticed that trace amounts of Kyuubi's distinctive red chakra would transfer itself from Naruto's hanyou body to Hinata's human one. At the same time he noticed gradual changes in her physical appearance, her ears became pointed and twitched when they heard a sound and all of her senses became stronger and that wasn't just from her training to be a Hyuuga kunoichi and heiress. He also noticed that there was a chakra build up at her tailbone, the reason he could only guess.
Today is Naruto and Hinata's first day at the academy and are on the street with Neji and Denko. "I can't wait. I can't wait. I can't wait." Naruto and Hinata were repeating in perfect harmony.
"We'll be there soon now stop dancing around us!" Denko says effectively stopping the chant but it didn't stop them from bouncing around the older boys. They weren't just excited about starting at the academy, but they are going to play pranks on all of the sensei as a start of the year present.
"So what are we gonna do again?" Naruto asks forgetting what kind of prank they were going to pull that morning.
"We're simply gonna make sure all the sensei are awake this morning with a classic water over the door prank." Denko explains, "It's just to let them know that there is a second team of Hyuuga and Uzumaki!"
SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH "HYUUUUUUGAAAA!!!! UUUZUMAAAAAKIIIIII!!!!! GET IN IRUKA SENSEI'S ROOM NOW!" Was what the whole village of Konoha when classes at the academy were to start.
"Iruka sensei, it was just a harmless joke." Denko tried to explain, again.
"The point is that you should stop with the stupid tricks and just concentrate on your shinobi training-"Iruka began.
"But setting up the pranks is just like how we are supposed to set up traps in the field." Neji says causing the four children to smirk slightly.
"As true as that may be I do not appreciate being pelted by water balloons when I go to teach a class."
"Does that mean we can hit you with them anywhere else?" Naruto asks as innocently as he can.
"No."
"Does it mean that the other sensei like it?"
"No."
"Can we do it to the other sensei outside of class?"
"No." Iruka says again with his fingers crossed where the pranksters could easily see them.
"Are we allowed to do any other pra-"
"NO! Now get to class!" Iruka yells with enough force to make the hair of all four students to be blasted backwards. The two Hyuuga's and Uzumaki's quickly left the room for their classes.
'It's going to be a long six years…Denko and Neji are hard enough already and now there are two more. At least they caught the hint so they'll get the other sensei; I'm not the favorite for nothing.' Iruka thinks before snickering as he heads to his first class to teach to find that his sensei-in-training had his silver hair died bright pink.
"Oi Hinata! Naruto!" Naruto and Hinata look up to the back of the classroom to find their friends sitting together. Hinatas closest friends are Haruno Sakura and Yamanaka Ino. Naruto's friends are Inuzuka Kiba, his partner Akamaru, Aburame Shino, Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Chouji, and his biggest rival, Uchiha Sasuke. Naruto and Sasuke competed against each other with just about anything and both are too stubborn to know when to quit.
"What's up guys?" Naruto asks them as they reach the group.
"Great job with the pranks this morning, simple yet very effective." Kiba says with the all the others but Sasuke agreeing.
"Thanks guys, maybe you could help with some of the other pranks we have planned while we're in this place." Naruto says with a wide foxy grin that Hinata liked and made all the others laugh at the possibilities except Shikamaru who said "Troublesome" with a small smile, and Sasuke who simply ignored them.
Five years later Neji graduated as the number one rookie of the year with Denko as the close second. The day after they graduated they were placed on a four man team instead of the usual three with Tenten and Rock Lee, and their Jounin sensei is Maito Gai. They easily and quickly passed the green spandex wearing Jounin's test. They found that Gai-sensei is the Taijutsu master in Konoha, Lee saw him as a role model and started dressing and acting like his sensei and is determined to become a taijutsu master because of his inability to utilize Genjutsu or Ninjutstu. Tenten is a kunoichi who is a weapons specialist with extreme precision when either throwing or holding her weapons and seemed to have an endless arsenal. Neji has been training with Hiashi and Hizashi with the Jyuuken style and intends to develop the style and his Byakugan past what it is known to do currently. Denko developed a form of the Jyuuken where he shuts down an opponent's nervous system instead of their chakra system and began to wield a kodachi that he could increase its effectiveness with his lightning abilities.
The next year it was Uchiha Sasuke who nominated rookie of the year with Naruto and Hinata tied for second. Over the years at the academy, Naruto grew two more tails in addition to the two he had prior coming to the academy. Hinata when she first started only had heightened senses and pointed ears, now she had fox ear on top of her head like Naruto that are covered by blue-black fur like her three tails do, and grew claws on her fingers and toes in place of nails.
"Everyone listen up, I'm going to tell you what teams you'll be in." Iruka began and all the new genin became quiet. "Team seven, Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura, and Inuzuka Kiba." All of the girls but Hinata groaned at not being on a team with the Uchiha Avenger while Sakura did a little cheer and began rubbing her 'good fortune' in the other girls' faces. "Team eight, Yamanaka Ino, Nara Shikamaru, and Akimichi Chouji. Blah blah. Team ten, Uzumaki Naruto, Hyuuga Hinata, and Aburame Shino." Naruto and Hinata who had their tails wrapped around each others' waists quickly began hugging each other and bouncing in their seats in happiness because they are on the same team. "Ok everyone, your jounin-sensei will be here in one hour, take the time to get to know your teammates and eat lunch. You're dismissed and good luck."
To be continued….
AN- All right guys and girls, I'll be adding more Japanese terms in the story as I learn more of the language (I also have a Japanese dictionary next to me for reference) and I hope all of my readers review so I know how much you like it. If anyone can give me a good site to get techniques translated into Japanese it would be greatly appreciated.
See ya!
