Authors Notes: Ok, about Naruto's summons being able to track someone if they got lost. If you get lost, scream! They are close enough to where a scream could regroup everyone. Besides, Naruto can use the Kyuubi's chakra in order to follow their scent. Also, I must say, that review was very thought out and it reminded me that Naruto had summons. ). One other thing, I may increase the rating for this fan-fic in the future. Although, I do not plan on doing a lemon scene in this fan-fic. The only reason I may increase the rating is because of increased swearing and perverted crap that I may occasionally throw in here. Now here is chapter 3!
For Love
"Holy crap!" shouted the jinchuriki in amazement, "This place is huge!"
The trio spent at least half an hour feeling the wall, trying to determine how large their "new home" was.
"This place is massive, we have like three times the amount of space we need." said the pink-haired figure. "Hey Naruto, where are the sleeping bags?"
The blond rubbed the back of his head with one hand. Naruto then revealed in an embarrassed voice, "Well... I wasn't able to find them, it's like Ero-Sennin purposely hid them."
"Nani!?!" the konoichis chimed in a chorus, "You never found them!?!
"Basically…" confessed the annoying shinobi, smiling, not finding a reason to explain further.
"That would make sense," the Hyuuga explained, "that he made it hard to find them for a reason. Then we would have to try to use chakra fields in order to find them before any sort of freeze." Hinata was showing her intelligence very well at this moment.
"Yeah, I think your right, but we can search for them in the morning." mumbled the Hokage's apprentice while rubbing her eyes. "I'm tired."
"Me to!" agreed the future Hokage sleepily.
"Now that you mention it, I am pretty tired." yawned Hinata.
"Yeah, lets head to bed." Sakura said.
"Ok...whatever...goodnight..." Naruto couldn't even finish his sentence before collapsing on the ground, exhausted. The lavender-eyed and the green-eyed girl giggled when they heard a loud Thunk! and a snoring shinobi.
"So... are you going to sleep next to him?" said Sakura slyly, "Everyone knows you like him!" The nosy konoichi's words had the desired effect.
"Sakura! He's right next to us!" the heiress motioned toward the general direction of the sleeping shinobi.
"And yet, for some reason, he remains oblivious to your feelings," the Sasuke stalker continued, "...and your features." Hinata fully flushed up at the ending of her sentence, and put her hand in front of her mouth desperately trying to cover her blush.
"You don't need to cover up your blush, Hinata." The pink-haired apprentice said knowing all to well the other konoichi's personality.
"How could you see that I was blushing?" implored the shy heiress who put her index finger to her lip, clearly nervous as hell.
"I know you all to well, Hinata!" said the mostly useless ninja who had a small, demented grin on her face. "And I think it's time to make Naruto notice you." Sakura's slight smile grew into a larger, creepier smile. Not that the Hyuuga could notice it. The pink-haired ninja walked closer to Hinata and whispered some advice into her ear. Every word that she spoke made the blush on Hinata's face grow larger and deeper...
Naruto awoke from his slumber refreshed and ready to start the day. He could not, however, due to a few arms resting on him. The blond used his free hand to attempt to wake the person next to him.
"Hey, wake up!" the jinchuriki nudged the person next to him with no avail. He tried poking the side of her head. It didn't work. At that moment, Naruto's hand felt her hair and he instantly knew who it was. Sakura did not have a long "tail" of hair at the side of her face.
"Wow, Hinata sure likes to snuggle!" thought the annoying blond. This thought made a small blush appear on his face.
"Wow, Naruto sure is comfortable!" thought the lavender-haired konoichi who's been awake for quite a while now.
Naruto knew that he would have to get up even if it was rude to wake the girl next to him. The wanna-be Hokage stood up with little resistance, and attempted to wake up the Hyuuga. The annoying ninja squatted next to the heiress and continued nudging Hinata's side. It took all of the lavender-eyed konoichi's strength not to giggle.
Sakura had been up for quite a while now, waiting for the ideal time to strike. That time was now. The Sasuke stalker silently walked over to Naruto and nudged him off balance.
"Gomen, I'm still dizzy from waking up." she lied.
Naruto fell right on top of Hinata, his chest touching hers.
"Ahh! What the hell!?" the jinchuriki shouted. He tried to get up but a set of arms were already wrapped around his back.
"Damn you, Sakura! Help me up!" the hyperactive shinobi demanded.
"Nah...I don't feel like it," Sakura teased. She wanted to prolong this as long as possible. This was her plan anyway.
Hinata noticed him struggling to get up, and decided to hold him tighter. Naruto let a small blush creep over his face when he felt the pressure between his chest and hers increase.
"You know, Naruto, she only sleeps in her bra and panties!" said the green-eyed ninja slyly.
"Oh fuck..." the blond, he had a full blush on his face now.
According to Sakura's plan, Hinata was supposed to "wake up" now.
"Huh...Naruto, what are you doing on my chest?" the Hyuuga mumbled as she used one hand to rub her eye sleepily.
"Gomenasai (I'm really sorry)!!" The rasengan-wielding ninja quickly shot up off the heiress for her arms were no longer confining him, "Sakura pushed me on to you when I was trying to wake you up." Naruto waved his arms in the air in an attempt to get the lavender-eyed girl to believe him. Sakura was listening to this from a small nook in the cave.
"Really?" murmured the normally shy konoichi seductively, "Did it have anything to do with the fact that all I'm wearing is a bra and panties?"
"No, really!" the jinchuriki shouted begging her to believe him.
"Did you enjoy it?" the heiress teased trying to act cute by putting the tip of her index finger to her lips.
"What kind of question is that?!" shouted the blond ninja, completely embarrassed.
"Well? What's your answer?" Hinata replied. The orange-wearing shinobi shirked back a bit from shock at the usually shy girl.
"No, I didn't enjoy it!" the wanna-be Hokage tried to say in a firm voice which came out incredibly shaky. Both girls caught this, and instantly knew he was lying.
"I think we should go find the sleeping bags before it freezes." the jinchuriki said in a voice which obviously showed that he wanted to end this conversation.
Sakura stood up from her kneeling position. "Whatever...Perv!" she remarked. If There was anything Naruto hated being called, that was it.
What did you call me, Bitch?" shouted the pissed shinobi whilst getting up from his squatting position, "your the one who pushed me on to Hinata. I should be calling you a perv!"
"Whatever," Sakura murmured nonchalantly, "lets go find the sleeping bags."

"How the hell are we going to find these?" blurted the kitsune container "I can't see anything."
"Duh, that's because your a dumb ass!" the pink-haired konoichi said, wanting to egg him on.
"Once I can see again, I'm going to kick your ass!" Naruto stated.
"Don't you guys remember the reason why we were placed in teams of three when we became gennins?" stated Hinata still annoyed by their constant fighting.
"Yeah, something to do with teamwork." the jinchuriki said as oblivious to her question as he is oblivious to her feelings. (Author Note: Yeah, I'm a bastard for making that analogy).
"Baka! She means we should work as a team!" the green-eyed konoichi pointed out.
"Exactly, which you two are doing a poor job of." reminded Hinata.
"Yeah your right," Naruto said, "but anyways, how are we supposed to use a chakra field?"
"The Juuken fighting style is almost completely based on chakra control;" lectured the Hyuuga, "if you can master that like I have, then you can secrete chakra from your body till it fills a large, invisible sphere of chakra. If you secrete too much chakra, you will become chakra depleted very fast. If you don't secrete enough, then your vision will be lacking."
"Ok...so how do I make the barrier?" blurted the blond thoughtlessly.
"I think the "barrier" is hypothetical." answered the heiress, "We must let our chakra be loose enough to float around, but we must keep a grip on it so it doesn't float away.
"Oh!" the annoying ninja stated, "You must be really smart if you already figured that out!"
It was to bad that Naruto hadn't figured out the art of "chakra fields" yet. Because of that, he wasn't able to see the Hyuuga shining with her trademark blush.
"Hinata, are you blushing?" said Sakura slyly hoping for Naruto to notice what she said.
"Why would you say that, Sakura?" Hinata mentioned. She motioned her hand trying to get the green-eyed konoichi to shut up.
"Sakura, when I get you alone, I will thrash you!" thought the lavender-haired girl. "I'll help Naruto kick your ass. Naruto is right here, and awake! How can you say something like that? And right in front of him!"
"I've always wondered why you blushed when Naruto talked to you," the Hokage's student continued, "and now I know." (Author Note: She already knew, but she had to try to make Naruto want to know.)
"Can you guys shut up already?" Naruto mumbled, "I'm tired of listening to girl chat!"
"Baka! I was going to tell you that Hinata..." The Hyuuga clasped her hand over Sakura's mouth to prevent her from finishing what she was going to say.
The heiress whispered something into Sakura's ear somewhat threateningly, "...and I don't want him to know until I can get him to like me. And trust me, I know just how to do that." the lavender-eyed konoichi loosened her grip on the Hokage's apprentice and then let go completely. She took about 4 steps back and waited for someone to break the silence.
Naruto took that opportunity after about 10 seconds, "...So...What the hell was that about?" he looked in the general direction of the lavender-haired and pink-haired ninja hoping to get an answer.
The The pink-haired ninja used one hand to rub the back of her head when she spoke, "Oh, it was nothing."
"Ok... Whatever." the blond said obviously confused, "Hey Hinata, can you see yet? You've practiced chakra control all of your life."
"I can see a very loose outline, but I still cant distinguish a bush from a sleeping bag." She replied.
"So, your not putting in enough chakra?" the jinchuriki asked.
"Isn't that obvious?" the green-eyed konoichi implied.
"I really don't have a lot of chakra, so it's not like I can put a ton into this," the Hyuuga answered.
Naruto walked over to Hinata and stared at her face. He closed his eyes and placed two fingers on her forehead. His finger glowed a bright sky blue for a short amount of time. "Can you see now?" asked the wanna-be Hokage quizzically.
"Holy crap Naruto, what did you do?" said the heiress amazed.
The Hyuuga could see a full, sharp, black-and-white, and 360 degree picture in her mind.
"I saw that you didn't have enough chakra so I gave you some of mine," informed the blond sheepishly. A blush started to form on his face. "and also for some reason. When I placed my fingers on your forehead and gave you some of my chakra. It let me read your thoughts..."
Hinata's eyes went wide."Oh fuck..."
