"So where are we going again?"
"To see all your friends!"
"Why?"
"I want to meet them."
"Why?"
"I want to see if they really are your friends."
"But……..why???"
"Nevermind." The stranger sighed, as Naruto and him walked alongside each other. It was around 9:30 AM. But even if it was a tiny bit early, it was pretty warm. The sun was shining today and not a cloud was to be found in the light blue sky. Birds were still chirping and shops were about to open. I missed this weather. Thought the man as he took off his white coat that had the red flames coming from the bottom.
"Hey, are you really a jounin?" Naruto asked looking at his uniform.
"Yes. Yes, I am." The man replied, placing his coat over his shoulder.
"Then, show me your best move!" Naruto commanded.
The man chuckled, "Alright, you really want to see?"
"YA!" Naruto was starting to get excited. The man laughed as he saw this and he placed his has together. He did a combination of hand symbols, which looked oddly familiar to Naruto. But he couldn't tell because of how fast his hands went. he's fast Naruto thought.
There was a poof of smoke and the man was gone. Well, he wasn't really gone, he just transformed. He only changed his face. He now had less spikier hair, which was now a darker brown almost black.
"HEY!! I wanted a really awesome jutsu!!" yelled Naruto.
"This is an awesome jutsu." Replied the man. "Without it, how would you disguise yourself? Even the most simplest jutsus can be important. Remember that, Naruto."
Naruto grunted. "Whatever, just change back now."
"Nah, I think I'll stay like this." He grinned to himself.
"But…..why?" asked Naruto confused.
"Just because."
"Whatever."
They continued to walk through the village silently. Shops were now opened and there were people walking through the street. There seemed to be a lot of travelers trying to trade items to the shopkeepers. Shouts were being heard saying to buy this or that.
"Naruto!" a distant voice shouted. Naruto turned around to see his old sensei, Iruka.
"Iruka-sensei!" Naruto shouted back. The man turned around calmly. Iruka caught up with them and asked, "How are you Naruto? And who's this?" he turned to look at the man and his uniform, "Did you get in trouble?"
"NO!" Naruto shouted.
"Calm down, Naruto. No need to shout." Said the man with a smile. "Nice to meet you, Iruka? Is it?" the man said as he shook hands with him.
"Nice to meet you, um…"
"Unfortunately Naruto hasn't named me yet." The man smiled as he patted Naruto's head.
"Excuse me?" Iruka seemed lost.
"None of your business, sensei." Naruto crossed his arms.
"Don't be rude. He was your sensei after all." The man said.
"Agreed." Said a voice. They turned to see a grey-haired person reading an orange covered book.
Kakashi!?!?! Naruto shouted in his mind. He didn't want to tell both his sensei's about the stranger. He still didn't want him to go away.
"My, my, Naruto. Did you make a new friend?" Kakashi said closing the book.
"I gotta go. Or I'll be late for my class. I'll see you later." Iruka said, having an odd feeling about this conversation.
"Bye, nice to meet you!" The man waved back.
"Why are you polite all the time?" Naruto asked.
"Better than being rude." Grinned the man. Kakashi stared at the man. I've heard that somewhere before, but where?
"Something wrong?" the man asked him. Kakashi broke out of his thought, "Oh ,no. Just thinking. I'm Kakashi Hatake."
The man smiled warmly at him, "Naruto hasn't named me yet, so I apologize."
"Ahh, I see. So that was what all the commotion was about yesterday." Kakashi stared back and forth between the two. Naruto grinning nervously and the man looking confused. As Kakashi stared at the man as he(the man) and Naruto were discussing about names.
He then noticed what was over his shoulder. It was the white coat with the red flames. Kakashi froze. He made sure that nobody could see his reaction, especially the man. I've seen that vest before……but it couldn't be.
"Excuse me. I have to go somewhere." Kakashi said sternly, to the man. "Once you get your name from Naruto, I would like to know." He smiled under his mask and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"What's up with him?" asked Naruto as he turned his head towards the man. The man had a serious face and was silent. Naruto stared hard at him wondering what was up with grown-ups being so serious. Grown-ups are so weird sometimes he thought.
"You better find a name for me quick, huh? Or else everybody is going to start calling me 'hey, you!'" the man finally said smiling.
"Just hold your horses. Its easy to name an animal, but to name a person, now that's hard." Naruto answered back in a frown. The man chuckled.
"Alright, alright. Just make sure its soon." The man laughed and ruffled his hair.
They started their 'journey' again through the village. The streets were completely crowded with buyers and sellers, since it was a Saturday.
"Alright, Naruto." The man said, stopping in his tracks. "Is there any girl who graduated with you from the Ninja Academy, near here?"
Naruto thought. "There's Sakura, Ino, and...um…oh, and Hinata."
"Alright, you said Sakura was on your team and that she likes Sasuke. Now, I want you to describe this Ino and Hinata."
"Uhhhh…Sakura and Ino don't get along with each other that much…um…I think its because she also likes Sasuke."
The man sighed, "Does this Hinata like Sasuke also?"
"No…I don't think so. She's really quiet. She always twiddles her fingers. Oh, and she's always red in the face. Sometimes I wonder if she sick or som-"
"Bingo! Which way does she live?" the man exclaimed. Naruto tapped his chin, "Ummm……I think……THAT WAY!" he pointed out Southward.
"And off we go!" said the man.
About 45 minutes past since Naruto pointed out the direction, and still no sign of the Hyuuga residence was found.
"Are you sure it was this way?" the man asked, as he fanned himself with his hand. It was getting pretty hot, there wasn't a cloud found in the sky.
"I thought it was." Naruto said wiping off some sweat. The man sighed with a smile on his face.
"Hey, when are you going to stop that jutsu?" Naruto asked, "It'll be a waste of charkra."
The man grinned at him, "I will, until you give me a name." Naruto replied with a grunt and took the lead. The man following close behind him.
"What's her last name?" the man asked out of curiosity.
"Hyuuga." Replied Naruto.
"Hyuuga?!?!" the man exclaimed coming to a halt. "You mean, from the Hyuuga clan?"
"Umm…yea. Why?" Naruto asked confusingly.
"You do know that they're a known clan from the Hidden Leaf Village right?"
"I think………wasn't because of that thing they have with their eyes?" Naruto pondered.
The man chuckled in a tired sort of way. "Yes, the special trait they have." To think that a Hyuuga likes Naruto… "Well, let's go on. I know where they live."
They continued walking a bit South ward, then they turned West for a couple of blocks. After a few moments, there they were, standing in front of the Hyuuga residence. It was a marvelous mansion. It Naruto's opinion it was more of its own little neighborhood.
"Whoaaaa…" Naruto stared in amazment.
"You've never seen it before?" asked the man. Naruto shook his head, "Nah, I've just seen Hinata walk this was before."
Then they walked in through a gate, since it the residence was surrounded by a wall. Right on the wall, next to the gate, there was a plate reading "Hyuuga", in Kanji. As they walked in, they found themselves in the most beautiful garden ever seen. There were many willows and cherry blossom trees. The light pink petals falling gently of the trees and landing softly on the bright green grass and the lily pound, that was off to the side.(Yes…it is that beautiful)
"Whoaaaaa……" Naruto said under his breathe. He found it so peaceful here that he could fall asleep on the spot.
"Peaceful…isn't it?" the man said softly, a calm expression on his face.
"Believe it." Naruto said quietly.
"May I help you?" said a voice. They turned around and saw the head of Hyuuga clan standing next to the pond.
"Hello. I don't hav-"
"Arashi." Naruto replied, with no expression on his face. "His name is Arashi."
The immediately turned his head around to stare at Naruto. "What???"
"Your name will be Arashi." Naruto stated. The man stared in utter amazement. He was speechless. How…
But poor Hiashi Hyuuga was in complete confusion when he saw that man stare down at they blonde in astonishment while the boy stared right at him.
"May I help you??" he asked again. The man took his sight off of Naruto and back to the man, "Umm, yes. My name is……Arashi. And this is Naruto.
Hiashi stared at the two as he thought of how familiar the name Arashi was to him.
"I see. Nice to meet you, My name is Haishi Hyuuga. Head of this clan. Unfortunately, you did not answer my question : May I help you?"
"Ah, yes. Naruto here would like to speak with Hinata-chan." the man said, "That is, if it alright with you? I am assuming that you're her father."
"You assume well." Hiashi turned to stare at Naruto for a while, "……and yes, you may speak with her." He turned around and sat next to a willow tree that was also next to the pond. "And while you're with her, ask her what is taking her so long. We are supposed to have tea."
"Ah, may I join you?" the man asked, or should I say, Arashi asked. Hiashi nodded as Arashi took a seat.
Naruto stared at the two men who had started a conversation. He then turned to look at the house. I guess I should just walk in. (no duh.)
He then walked onto the porch and into the house using caution, for some odd reason. He walked around the halls asking some maids for directions. He wandered the halls for a few moments more to find an opening right in the middle of the house. It was another garden. It wasn't like the front yard. It had less grass right in the center and there was only one tree that was off to the side.
I guess they like nature…Thought Naruto as he saw someone there standing in the middle. It was a boy not much older than him with brown long hair and the same eyes like Hinata's and Hiashi.
"Neji……" Naruto said under his breathe. Neji Hyuuga, a child prodigy, was training by himself. He quickly punched and kicked the air. Creating battle techniques within every second. Then he did a move that was familiar to Naruto.
"Two palms!" shouted the boy Hyuuga, "Four palms! Eight palms!"(you get it right?)
Naruto thought that there was a reason why Neji was training alone, and thought it would be best if he did so. If not Neji would be using the move on him. So, Naruto continued his journey though the hallways. Until, finally, he found Hinata's bedroom door.
"Finally, it's a maze in here." Naruto said, thinking that about half an hour had past.
He knocked on the door and waited a few seconds as he heard someone scrambling to the door, "C-coming!"
Naruto sweat dropped as he heard her trip over something.
"Ow."
Then the sliding door opened (it's a traditional Japanese house) to reveal a girl with short indigo/purple (whatever you want to call it) hair. She was wearing a kimono that was light purple with pink cherry blossoms and bright green leaves woven into it.
"Wow! You look great Hinata!" exclaimed Naruto.
Hinata froze up immediately. Her face turned completely red. Her eyes turned into swirls. She screamed as she fainted.
Hiashi and Arashi turned their heads to the house. Hiashi, with no expression at all, said, "Oh, my." While Arashi smiled when he heard Naruto yell out in a panicked voice.
"HINATA-CHAN!! ARE YOU ALRIGHT?!?!?!?"
Neji paused in his training. He turned his head around to the location of Hinata's room. Then sweat dropped when he heard Naruto voice.
