"What happened?" Hiashi asked Neji who was in his office.
"It's your daughter, sir."
"What about my daughter? Is Hanabi?" Hiashi asked suddenly nervous.
Neji stood there kinda shocked. He would have expected him to guess about Hinata. "No, sir, it's not Hanabi."
"What happened to Hinata then?" Hiashi asked suddenly standing up in a panic.
Neji again was shocked. He had never had seen Hiashi so concerned about Hinata before. It was always Hanabi. "These will seem hard to believe sir, but she was on a mission by herself and she was severally wounded. Hinata is in surgery right now. Uzumaki Naruto went to find her. He found her and brought her back. He is now in the hospital also due to chakra exhaustion."
Hiashi was shocked. He never knew Hinata was on a mission. Why didn't she tell him? What had happened why was she by herself? With no one else? How did Neji know about this before he did? "Neji? Why do you know about Hinata before I did?"
"Sir? Have you forgotten that I now work at the hospital? After that one mission, I could never mold chakra into attacks again. The only thing I can do is be a medical nin."
Hiashi was walking out the door saying over his shoulder, "Come on Neji, we are going to the hospital."

"Where's my daughter?" Hiashi asked as soon as he saw Kakashi.
"In there." Kakashi said jerking his thump to the emergency door rooms.
"Is she alright?"
"I dunno. I haven't seen Tsunade since she went in there."
Hiashi sat down next to Kakashi and Neji sat on the other bench facing the two men. Hiashi couldn't believe that he could have lost his oldest daughter. For so many years, he had focused on Neji and Hanabi but never Hinata. Hinata had always seemed like a burden to him because she wasn't a great prudery like Neji or Hanabi was. What he would miss if Hinata were to die now in that hospital room. He had missed twenty-five years of her life worrying about the clan or Neji or Hanabi. Hiashi couldn't deal with himself if Hinata would die without him saying something nice to her for once in her life.

Naruto suddenly sat up shouting. "Hinata-chan!" Naruto suddenly remembered that he had found her battered body in a cave and brought her back here. Tsunade had taken Hinata from him before he had blacked out.
Naruto threw back the sheets on the bed and took a step before falling to his knees. He got back up grunting and walked a couple more steps before falling. "Dammit." Naruto grunted. He got back up and walked to the stairs before falling again. Naruto walked down the stairs cursing. He finally got to the main floor. He had to find Hinata.
Many nurses told him to stop and get back to his room but he ignored them all. The one thing that was on his mind was finding Hinata for the second time that same day. Naruto walked down a hallway and saw Kakashi, some man that looked like Hinata, and Neji. The man looked up and saw Naruto before he fell to he ground again. "Hinata-chan." Naruto whispered on the ground.
Kakashi had sensed someone's chakra and he heard a voice that sounded familiar. Kakashi looked up and saw Naruto lying on the floor looking at him.
Naruto saw Kakashi look down the hallway at him and get up. The man and Neji both looked at Kakashi wondering were he was gong. "Where are you going Kakashi?" The man asked.
"To pick someone up." Kakashi said bending over and picking Naruto up. "You shouldn't be here Naruto. You know that."
Naruto looked into Kakashi's one eye. "Where's Hinata-chan?" Naruto whispered.
By now, Kakashi was walking back over to the bench and he put Naruto on the same bench as Neji. "In there. You're going to have to wait a while to see her though. Why don't you rest some more?"
"Alright," Naruto said before falling back into unconsciousness.
"Who is that boy? He looks like the fourth Hokage." Hiashi said staring at Naruto's sleeping face.
"That is the fourth Hokage's only son. He is Namikaze Naruto; however, you know him as Uzumaki Naruto."
"This boy saved my daughter?" Hiashi asked surprised. He then looked at Neji remembering something that happened a long time ago. "Didn't this boy defeat you in the Finals for the Chunin Exams?"
"Yes, he saved Hinata and he bet me." Neji said grinding his teeth together. No one said anything after that for a long time.
About hours after Neji had said Naruto beat him the Chunin Exams, Tsunade come out of the doors all sweaty. "How is my daughter?" Hiashi asked standing up not being able to take it anymore.
"Hinata is fine. She will not wake up for a couple of more days. She will have a couple of scars and burn marks that I could not get rid of but other then that she will be the same as before." Tsunade the saw Naruto lying on the bench fast asleep. "Why is Naruto down here? Shouldn't he be in is room?"
Kakashi looked at Naruto and the Tsunade. "He came down here all worried about Hinata. I put him on the bench."
Tsunade stared at Naruto for a couple of minutes. "He should've woken up for a couple of more days. Anyway, let's get these two to there room. I think Naruto will be more comfortable in a bed then on a bench."

Naruto sat up again. "Hinata-chan!" Naruto saw Hinata in a bed next to him. He also saw Kakashi, Tsunade, and the man that looked like Hinata. "What happened? How did I get back in here?"
"I brought you back here." Tsunade said looking at Naruto.
"Who's the man? He looks like Hinata." Naruto asked looking at the man curiously.
The man stepped forward. "I just happen to be Hinata's father, Hiashi, Clan Head of the Hyuuga Clan." Hiashi then stepped back and bowed deeply to Naruto. "Thank you, Uzumaki Naruto, for bring my daughter back here. If it wasn't for you, I don't know what I would do."
"It's no big deal Hiashi-sama. Is it alright if I call you Hiashi-sama?" Naruto asked rubbing the back of his head.
"Yes, you may call me Hiashi-sama."
"Granny Tsunade? When will Hinata wake up?" Naruto asked looking at Hinata.
"With in the next couple of days."

Three Days Later
Hinata opened her eyes to see Naruto looking at her. She was very surprised to her father, Neji, and Tsunade all in the same room concerned about her. "Naruto-kun." Hinata whispered.
"Hinata-chan, I do." Naruto said leaning towards Hinata's ear so only, she could hear him.
