Alright fellow fan fiction fanatics, this is officially the tenth chapter of In my vision in my heart. I hope it's been entertaining so far. I just want to say thanks to all who reviewed ( not many but, I love all you guys anyway =D ). Here is your next update.
I don't own Naruto.
" So it is true that the four great leaders of the wolf clan are now seeking their life mates?" Chiou of the vampires asked the dark haired man sitting across from she and the two other elders.
" This is correct. Soon they will become one with these four chosen human females and become the rulers of all half wolf/ half man and lycan alike. I can not let this come to pass." The man said.
" So you've come to us seeking help. Why is it that you want to betray your own?" Baki asked
" The four born as our new leaders are not worthy of such a position. Half man/half wolf are the example of what we've become. How low our kind has stooped. They are a mockery. Mere half-breeds can not lead our kind with the pride and dignity that the wolf clan had and should always have." Baki gave the stock man an amused glance.
" And I suppose you can?"
" I am a pure blood. A lycan!...... I feel that only a pure blood should have the right to be leader. Even if it's not I who takes the rightful place, I still feel that having a half breed as leader is a disgrace to all wolves and lycan alike."
" And why did you choose us? You are bold, this I am certain. Coming within the territory of the vampire. Knowing what we know, it would be easy for us to kill you at this very moment, bring cataclysmic war upon the unexpected wolf clan achieving victory." Elder Yori stated to the lone wolf. The dark haired man growled at her and she bared her teeth in return.
" Is that a threat?!" The man asked standing up suddenly causing Yori to do the same but, before any injuries could be inflicted both elder Chiou and elder Baki intervened.
" There is no need for a confrontation. We are simply here to listen to what our visitor has to say..." Chiou said then looked back at their guest. " ...However, she is right. Why did you choose us?"
" Because I know that there is something that the three of you want and with my help....It can become more than just a dream" the three elder vampires glared at the man then slowly returned their seats.
" What is this that you speak of?" Baki asked
" I know many things....secrets of yours. Too many to discuss as of now. However, I will tell you this. I am not the only one who wishes to betray their own kind to fulfill my own dreams. There is a difference, though, between the three of you and myself. While I wish to see my kind lead by a strong and mighty leader whether it be myself or any other worthy pure-blood, you three are more selfish. You served under the lord of vampires for many a millennium. While this granted you great political power and superiority within the vampire nation, you were still powerless when it came to Marcus.
His word was bond and the three of you grew tired of......playing the part of the lap dog, if you will. You became selfish and greedy. You want more power and as the great advisors of the late Markus, it wouldn't take much for you to obtain this power. There is just one thing standing in your way.......or shall I say...four? I don't think I need to go on. So, do we have an agreement?" The man asked.
The elders glanced at one another. This man....this wolf...how did he know so much? It was unnerving for them that he was so informed on their intentions. What else did he know? Vampire and lycan were rivals, had been for as long as they could remember but, now they were faced with no choice but to trust a wolf. When the three of them looked back at the dark haired man he smirked.
" What is it that you want us to do?"
" I have some things in mind but, our top priority is.........kill the ones who seal our fate......we must kill those humans...."

Sunday Morning
Hinata awoke that morning and stared up at the ceiling. Today was the day that she and her friends would meet up with those four strange boys who were visiting Konoha. Well, at least that's what she and her friends figured. They'd been living in Konoha all their lives and had never seen those four before so it was evident to them that the four boys were just visitors.
She was a bit nervous, she could admit. After seeing the four boys completely naked the other day she just didn't know how she could look them in the eyes without fainting. Especially Naruto. Now, everyone knew that Hinata was a very shy and modest young lady but, she couldn't help but notice the difference in certain parts of Narutos' body compared to the others.
' The Gods have blessed you Naruto-kun ' She thought to herself as she blushed deeply.
Thinking such a thing about her new friends made Hinata feel guilty, weird, and a bit ashamed. She covered her face with her hands and sighed. Her face was so very hot but she couldn't help but giggle a little. With another sigh Hinata got up to prepare herself for the day. The first thing she would have to do was find one of the boys and ask them where they wanted to meet up with her and her friends.
After she took her shower, brushed her teeth, got dressed, brushed her hair, and got a bite to eat, she headed out of the house. As she got closer to the main gates to the compound she could hear voices. This wasn't really something that caught her attention all that much....that is, until she recognized one of the voices. It wasn't until she walked out of the compound that she realized who the voice belonged to.
" Oi! Hinata-chan!" Naruto said when he spotted said girl standing in the threshold of the compound.
Hinata froze. Her face instantly became red as the blond ran towards her with his brothers in tow. He smiled at her then wrapped his arms around her in a tight hug. Hinata tensed with wide eyes. The thoughts that flooded her mind and images of that night caused her to faint right there in Narutos' arms.
" Hinata.....chan.....?" Naruto called the girls name but got no answer. The other guys crowded around the two of them.
" Oh, just great Naruto. Look what you did. Your face scared her so much that she passed out.
" KIBAAA!........Just shut up and help me. I don't know what happened. One minutes she had her eyes open and the next....." He trailed off.
" Looks like she just fainted. It was either from embarrassment or over excitement. Either way, we need to get her out of the sun and sit her up. Once there we can try waking her." Neji said as Naruto held Hinatas' unconscious body.
They took her to a bench not too far from the entrance of the compound that sat underneath a large tree. Naruto whimpered as she sat unmoved. Kiba began trying to wake her.
" Oi, Hinata-chan.......Hinata-chan!...We have to go. Don't you want to go out with us?" The paled eyed girl began to stir.
" Hmm......what happened?......Where am I?" She asked in a soft voice as she began opening her eyes. At first all she saw was spiky brown hair and cute brown eyes but, then blond and blue filled her vision. Naruto smiled and leaned his face in close to Hinatas'......very close.
" Oi, Hinata-chan, you're awake. What happened? You just fainted." Said girl only began to blush all over again with the same wide eyes then
" N-N-N-N-Naruto-san!!!!"....she fainted again.
" See Naruto. I told you your face scared her." Kiba said. Naruto pouted and began to mumble.
" I can't believe Hinata-chan doesn't like me. I really like Hinata-chan, though. I thought we'd be perfect. Fall in love, share a mark of eternal bonding, have about thirty pups, gro-" Naruto stopped mumbling mid-sentence when Hinata began moving again but, this time Neji pulled him back to give her some breathing room. Hinata opened her eyes again and this time she saw spiky brown hair with brown eyes and a black spiky pony tail with dark brown eyes.
" Kiba-san?......Shikamaru-san?"
" Oi, you, don't go fainting on us again, okay?" Shikamaru said and Hinata blushed but, this time she stayed conscious.
After figuring out that they had to keep some distance between Hinata and Naruto for the time being, they started walking. It was quiet for a while, well all except for Narutos' pouting. It was then that Hinata remembered that she didn't know why they were even there.
" A-Ano.....not that I'm complaining but, why were you guys waiting at my compound entrance?"
" Huh? Did we not agree to meet on this day?" Neji asked and Hinata tried hard to muffle her laughter.
" Indeed we did agree on this day but, I wasn't aware that you meant for the entire day. It is only the AM. I'm sure a later time would've been more.....appropriate." The four boys stopped in their tracks. Had they done something stupid and immoral? Kiba scratched behind his ear and blushed as he spoke.
" O-Oh, well, eetto.....w-we could-" Hinata cut him off.
" It's alright, Kiba-san....everyone. We're all human and humans are not perfect. We make mistakes. While this may not be the most ethical time for an outing amongst friends, it most certainly is not uncommon. We could all go out for breakfast or brunch? Or maybe even settle in for an early picnic in the park?" Hinata suggested the later since their new friends didn't seem like they had all that much money for a nice breakfast or brunch at a cafe or restaurant.
" Picnic...?" Kiba asked
" Park.....?" Park Naruto added. Hinata frowned. Were these boys sheltered more than she'd first imagined? Surly they knew what a picnic and the park are. The boys could see the inquiring expression plastered across Hinatas' face. Shikamaru quickly stepped in.
" Naruto, you know, where we're from it's called....the...eetoo....esplanade. You remember, the large area of land in a natural state, for the enjoyment of the public, often with facilities for rest and recreational purposes, often owned by the village." Naruto gave Shikamaru a confused look for a moment and Shikamaru sweat dropped hoping that Naruto would catch on. After a while, he did.
" Eetoo....oh yeah, th-that place." Finding this believable, Hinata smiled. All the guys let out a sigh of relief.
" Well, a picnic it is. You guys, don't worry. I'll make something nice for us to eat. Do you guys like seafood?" All four guys nodded enthusiastically. They hadn't had fish in a long time and even then, it was not the kind they liked. This.....picnic....sounded like it would be nice.
" Well, this is gonna sound unusual but, where is the park?" Shika asked.
" Oh, no. It doesn't sound unusual at all since you guys are visitors in the hidden leaf village. Plus, there are many parks within Konoha. I think that Sarutobi park would be a good choice. It's located near shinobi river. It's in the noble district. You'll know the river when you see it. Once you come to the river the park is just around the corner. There will be a huge sign at it's entrance.
" Sounds easy enough to find." Kiba said
" Great! Meet my friends and I there in about two hours." Hinata said with a smile then ran off. She waved before turning the corner to Sakuras' street.
" You know, even if she hadn't told us exactly where this...park....was, we still would've found them." Kiba said with a smirk.
" Yeah, but she doesn't know that." Naruto added
" Not yet, at least." Neji stated.
" I can't wait" Said Naruto as the four of them walked in the opposite direction.

Sakura was laying in her bed with a pillow over her head when she head the soft knocks on her door. She briefly wondered who was crazy enough to knock on her door on a Sunday morning. She sighed. Could she ever get a quiet Sunday to herself? She pulled the pillow away from over her head and punched it a few times before getting out of the bed. Slowly she walked out her bedroom and into the living room. She heard yet another soft knock.
" Yeah, Yeah!....I'm coming, dammit. Stop knocking." She mumbled the last part. She opened the door.
" Hinata...?"
" Sakura-chan! Were you still asleep?"
".......Yeah. What's up?"
" Oh, did you remember that today is Sunday?"
".......No.....okay, yeah"
" Great!
" What's so great about a Sunday?"
" We're suppose to be meeting Naruto-kun and his brothers today."
" Huh?.......oh yeah, those guys that came to visit Konoha, right?"
" Hai! I just left them. They were waiting for me at the entrance to my compound a while ago. It's decided that we would meet at Sarutobi park for an early picnic."
" Oh.....okay. Do I have to bring anything?"
" No. I'm going to make something for everyone."
" What'cha gonna make?"
" It's a surprise." Hinata said with a smile. Sakura scratched her head with sleepy eyes then shrugged her shoulders.
" Whatever. Since you're making it then I know it'll be good." Hinata smiled.
" Arigatou, Sakura-chan"
" Yeah, alright, well, I'm gonna go and take a shower now."
" Alright, well, I told them to meet us at the park in two hours so be ready. I'll go and make sure that Ichigo and Hiame are up. We'll be back to get you once they're ready and I'm finished cooking."
" K, see you soon" Sakura said then waved at Hinata as she walked away. Sakura closed her door and went back in her room and got back in the bed.
After about a ten minute walk Hinata came upon Ichigos' apartment complex. It's pretty warm out today, she thought as she wiped some sweat from her forehead. Only a few more steps brought her to the foot of the steps leading to Ichigos' front door. Looking up she wondered just how Ichigo could do it everyday. Walking up and down that many stairs must have been hell. Then that's when Hinata thought of something. She smiled as she summoned chakra to her feet and lept up from the ground to just in front of Ichigos' place.
Thank the Gods for good chakra control and ninja abilities.
Ichigo was in her kitchen searching for something to eat when the doorbell rang. She closed the door the the fridge and walked over to answer the door.
" Hinata-chan! I take it you have something good to tell me since you came all this way."
" Hai. I talk to the guys and we've decided to have an early picnic at the park."
" Oh, cool. When?"
" I told them to meet us in two hours."
" Ah, okay. I guess I'll just wait until then to get a bite to eat. Waiting a little while longer won't hurt."
" I'm surprised, Ichigo-chan. Usually you would be the one saying forget the food." Hinata giggled. Ichigo smiled and rolled her eyes.
" So. Hey, a girl's got to eat sometimes. If I'm too thin then the guys won't like what they see, now will they? Do you want to come in and get something to drink?"
" Ah, something to drink would be nice but, I have to go make sure Hiame gets up and dressed. You know it takes forever for her to get ready."
" Yeah. Well, I have some bottled water, if you want that?"
" Hai, please?" Ichigo smiled and stepped aside to let Hinata in. After closing the door she walked over to her refrigerator and search for the water. Hinata was thankful that it was cooler in the house. Though she would only be staying for a moment, she was glad for the break.
" Where the hell is that bottle of water?.....No, that's not it...this one is already open...Ah! There you are. I found it Hinata-chan!" Ichigo walked over to Hinata and passed the bottle to her.
" Arigatou....." Hinata took a few sips of the water then sighed. " …..Well, I'm off to Hiames'."
" K. I'm gonna get ready. How's the weather?"
" It's warm but, not so much where you'd be sweating. As long as we find a nice tree to sit under it'll be fine."
" Okay, that gives me an idea of what to wear. Arigatou. Ja."
" Ja ne" Hinata said as she walked out of Ichigos' house. She quickly jumped down to the ground below and headed to Hiames'.
It took a little longer to get Hiames' place since she lived a bit further away. She was closer to their college than the rest of them. She chose to find a place that close so she wouldn't have far to walk. Yeah, Hiame was trying to go the easy way out but, that meant that she wasn't always with the others when they decided to go out unless they met her somewhere. She didn't mind, though since she was always on time to school and didn't have to wake up as early as the rest of them.
Hinata arrived at the white haired girls house, finally. She was tired but, excited. She was looking forward to spending time with the guys with her friends. Maybe they could all become good friends. No, she hadn't forgotten about Shino. Shino was very nice. The only kind of strange thing about him was that he would just show up out of nowhere. He was very unpredictable and still so mysterious. That fact was part of the reason why she admired him, though.
Then again, Naruto was also nice. He was cheerful and reminded her of a sunny day spent in a beautiful meadow full of buttercups. He was like a breath of fresh air. Plus, just like Shino, he just seemed to show up out of nowhere. Even though she just met Naruto she always felt nervous and happy when he's around. He made her smile on the inside but, she had no idea why. Although, she did feel a since of closeness with Neji, to. It wasn't the same feeling she got with Naruto but, she felt like they needed to be near one another.
Weird. Hinata hadn't noticed that she was standing in front of Hiames' front door unmoved. She hadn't even knocked yet. What had gotten into her? How could two completely different guys distract her so? She shook her head to clear it then knocked. Only moments later Hiame answered.
" Ohayo Hinata-chan! Let me guess,.....you talked to those hot guys we met, right?"
" Wha.....ah...how'd you know?"
" I don't know. I think I got a sixth sense for hot guys or something. I just know when I'm about to come up on one, or some crazy shit like that. Anyway, so? What'd they say?" Hinata giggled at her very weird friend. Hiame was a lazy, yet hyper, perverted, and very eccentric 19 year old kunoichi in training but, Hinata wouldn't have her any other way.
" We're gonna have an early picnic with them at Sarutobi park in about an hour and a half. Please, be ready, okay?"
" What're you talking about? Of course I'll be ready. When am I ever late?.........Okay, so I a little slow when it comes to getting dressed but, hey, a girls gotta look good! Well, that is until we have to wear our ninja uniforms. Geez, I'm glad strength training is over. I hope I passed but,.....then again, if I failed I'll have to do some one on one training with Itachi-sensei and...that wouldn't be so bad....no...not bad at all."
" Hiame-chan.....you're babbling."
" Huh? Oh, yeah, I'll be ready. No worries. Are you guys walking together or are we all just meeting up at the park?"
" No, I told Sakura that we'd meet her at her house. Now that I'm thinking about it, can you call her and make sure that she's awake?"
" Hai, sure. Alright, well, I'll go over either Sakura or Ichigo's house to wait for you. Oh,......hey Hinata-chan......are you cooking for the picnic?" Hiame asked with a hopeful smile.
" Hai! Of course."
" Woohoooo....ALRIGHT! Can you bring that stuff you made for us that last time, pleeeeease?" Hiame begged. Though she was pretty good at cooking, herself, Hiame loved Hinatas' food best.
" Oh, alright. I'll make ichigo daifuku, just for you. You should really be able to remember that name since it begins with Ichigo."
" I know, it's just that only strawberry goodness comes to my mind when I think about it and not our friend."
" Alright, well, I have to be going. I have to prepare lunch and get dressed myself. It's warmer than I thought, out and having on a pair of pants is a bit too much." Hinata said then the two girls said their goodbyes.
Little did the two girls know, there were four pair of eyes watching them, waiting for the right moment to make their move.

After making it home Hinata ran to her bedroom and picked out some clothes. She decided on a simple white sun dress with pink and white roses on it. She also decided that she'd take another quick shower after she'd finished cooking. Soon she was walking into the kitchen. The house cook was there preparing lunch for her father
" Ohayo, Hinata-hime! Care for some lunch?"
" Arigato, Nami-san but, not today. I'm having lunch with some friends in the park today. I'm only hear to prepare lunch for us."
" Ah, sounds wonderful. Does this group of friends happen to include any special male friends?" Hinata blushed. She and Nami were close. She'd been the head cook for the main Hyuuga family since before Hinatas' parents got married. She knew Hinatas' mother and often sat with Hinata and told her stories about her mother when she was just a child. Hinata always enjoyed the stories. Over time, Nami became something of a mother figure to Hinata so she often talked to Nami about her personal life.
".......Perhaps" Hinata answered as she walked over to the refrigerator. Nami smiled.
" Is it that Shino person you've been mentioning lately?" Hinata blushed even more then turned to look at Nami.
" Well, if you must know......no, it's not Shino-san. I do have other friends." Hinata smiled and Nami raised an eyebrow.
" Oh, is that so? And who, might I ask, is this 'other' friend?" Hinata smiled then quickly walked over to Nami.
" ......His name is Naruto. He's new here in Konoha. He has three brothers and they are all so very nice! My friends and I just met them but, I feel such a wonderful feeling whenever I'm around Naruto. I feel.....right, I guess you could say. I've never felt this way before Nami-san. I'm a bit apprehensive about it all but, that feeling goes away as soon as he comes near. I don't know, I am fond of Shino, also and it's all so very confusing."
" Wow, look at my little Hinata. Growing up before my very eyes and already you're in a love triangle." Hinata gasped.
" Oh, n-no....it's n-nothing like that. I'm only friends with the both of them and I barely know Naruto, so......." Hinata trailed off as she poked her fingers together and looked down at her feet. Nami chuckled softly.
" You know, Hinata-hime, your mother use to do that same thing when she as embarrassed. You're 18 now Hinata. There is no reason to be so bashful. You're beautiful and any man would be nuts not to see that. Something like this was bound to happen and it may not be the last time it will. You're the heir to the Hyuuga clan, you've grown to unparalleled beauty, you're in college, you're training to become a shinobi of the leaf, and you're one of the land of fires' top amateur pianists. I'm sure your mother is so proud of you as she looks down upon you from heaven. Even if he doesn't show it often, you father is proud of you also, and so am I." Hinata was just about in tears. No one, not even her father, had ever said they were proud of her. She'd always considered herself weak.
" A-Arigatou.....Nami-san" Nami smiled then sighed
" Now, don't you have a great lunch to prepare for your friends? Go ahead or you'll be late. Besides, you have to show this Naruto character just how wonderful you are." Hinata smiled
" Hai"
" Oh, let me be going also. I know Hyuuga-sama is wondering just what is taking me so long. Would you like for me to help you prepare the food when I return?"
" Oh, no thank you. I would like to do this myself, if you don't mind." Nami smiled
" Alright then. I'll take my leave."
Once Nami was gone Hinata began gathering the ingredients she'd need for the bento she was making. In all it took Hinata about an hour to prepare everything. She looked at the time and gasped. She would be late. After placing everything neatly in the bentos she ran up to her room to get dressed.

Naruto, Kiba, Shikamaru, and Neji were sitting on some milk crates in from of a small market nowhere near the park. Judging by the suns position in the park they could tell it was almost time for them to meet the girls. They were in not rush though. They didn't need to go looking to find their way to the park. It's not like any of them could read anyway so they would just rely on their noses. Where ever the girls were, they'd find them in no time at all.
" I'm bored! Is it time yet?" Naruto pouted
" Almost" Neji said looking up towards the sun.
" I wonder what Hinata's gonna bring?" Naruto said more to himself than anyone else.
" I wonder what my mate is gonna look like?" Kiba said out loud
" Why? You already know what she look like." Shikamaru said
" Yeah, I know but, you know, maybe she's changed somehow since the last time I saw her." Neji and Shikamaru rolled their eyes while Naruto only stared.
" Come on. We might as well walk around until we find their scent." Shikamaru said as he stood up then the four of them began walking. Needless to say, Naruto was excited.
By now Ichigo, Sakura, and and Hiame were all at the Hyuuga compound waiting for Hinata in the great room. It was unusual for Hinata to be running behind but, then again, she was the one who had to walk to everyones' house to make sure they remembered that they had made plans with the guys today. Now that they thought about it, why didn't she just call them in stead. Maybe she was just too excited? But why? Soon the door to the great room slid open and Hinata stood there with a sheepish smile on her face.
" Ah, g-gomen ne, you guys. I took too long on the food and lost track of time."
" It's alright, Hinata, you look soooo kawaiiiiiii!" Sakura said as she stood from her seat to walk towards said girl. Ichigo and Hiame did the same.
" She's right! It's so unlike you to wear a dress but, it suits you so well. You should wear them more often." Ichigo said with a smile.
" Arigatou! You guys also look kawaii."
" Mmmhmm.....so, who are you trying to impress, Hinata? Could it be a certain guy? Perhaps a certain blond guy in particular?" Hiame asked with a knowing smirk on her face. Hinata blushed.
" N-no.....I just wanted to wear something that would keep me cool."
" Oh, that blond guy got you that hot already? Couldn't get the image of him naked off your mind, neh?" Hiame giggled and Hinata gasped with wide eyes.
" N-n-n-no! I-I wasn't......." Sakura frowned at Hiame
" Cut it out Hiame. You're embarrassing her." Sakura then turned to face Hinata again. " It's alright Hinata. You're a big girl so whatever you do is none of our business unless you want it to be so don't mind Hiame." Hinata nodded
" Aww..come on. Hinata knows I just have to to tease her. She just looks so adorable when she's like that" Hiame then pulled Hinata into a tight hug and they both laughed.
" Come on you guys. We're already late." Ichigo said
" Oh, the food is in the kitchen." Said Hinata. After stopping in the kitchen to grab what Hinata had packed, they headed towards the park.
It only took a short amount of time before the boys picked up on the scent of the four girls. It was about a 15 minute walk from Hinatas' house to the park but, with all the laughing and talking the girls did, they didn't even notice. The park wasn't packed and it was pretty quiet. There were a few families there spending time together, couples walking together, and people out walking their pets but they seemed to be the only ones having a picnic. They found a large tree near a lake that provided plenty of shade. They set everything up and sat to wait on the guys.
" Where the hell are they?" Ichigo asked
" I'm not sure. I told them to meet us here. I even gave them directions." Answered/said Hinata
" We have no choice but to wait because I'll tell you what, I'm not leaving this damn park until I have some damn lunch with some damn guys. I got up out of my damn sleep and got ready just to come here. On a Sunday at that." Sakura complained.
" Calm the hell down Sakura!" Hiame yelled
".........Gomen"
" Now,.....Sakuras' right, though. I'd hate to be stood up, but we just got here. We can at least give them ten minutes and if they haven't shown up by then, then we can just say fuck it. We can always find some other hot guys to come over and keep us company. Those guys aren't that hot.......okay they are but, still. We can always-"
" Giving up on us already, neh? How awful. That hurts" Said Kiba as he held his hand to his chest and smiled. The girls gasped at his words as they looked around. The guys were nowhere to be found but then, Ichigo looked up in the tree they were sitting under and pointed. All the girls looked up and smiled. The guys looked down on the.
Naruto was crouched down on the tree with a huge smile on his face, Kiba stood next to him with his hand still over his heart feigning heart ache, Neji stood a few branches above opposite them with his arms crossed over his chest, and Shikamaru reclined on a branch just below Neji with his eyes closed. They liked looking at things from such a high perspective. Something they would've never been able to achieve in their wolf form.
" Naruto-san!....Kiba-san, Shikamaru-san, Neji-san......You all came! Arigatou!" Hinata said with a smile. The four guys jumped down and nodded.
" We said we would, right? Then if we said we would then we would. We never go back on our words. You can count on us!" Naruto said and Hinata blushed
" Hai!" She responded. Sakura, Hiame, and Ichigo all gave each other a knowing look. This picnic was turning out to be interesting already.
The guys sat down across from the girls and for a moment it was quiet. Surprisingly, Hinata was the first to speak.
" A-ano......I guess we should eat now. I prepare some bentos for us. I hope you like it."
" Ben....to?" Naruto asked. This time all the guys were perplexed. Didn't she say she would make some kind of fish or something. Just what the hell was a bento? All the girls looked at the guys like they'd grown a second nose on their foreheads. Neji cleared his throat.
" Ah, w-well, we come from a particularly poor village and we are not accustomed to many things that would, otherwise, seem common to most."
" Ooooohhhhhhh" The girls all said in unison.
" Please, explain what this bento is." Shikamaru added
" Ah, well a bento, to put it short, is a box lunch. It's a square container that holds about three to six separate departments to provide a variety of food." Sakura said with a smile.
" Ah"
" Hai! I prepared Naganegi, gohan, oshinko, maguro and tako sashimi, and a light mango and spinach salad with cashews. Oh, also, for something sweet, I made some ichigo daifuku but, it's not in your bento so if you want some, please, feel free to ask!" Hinata said as she passed a bento to everyone with a smile. " I hope it's to your liking. Please, enjoy."
The wonderful aroma instantly attacked the boys senses as they removed the lids from the boxes. Their mouths automatically watered. Oh yeah, picnics were the best, the four wolf-men thought as they devoured the food quickly. All the girls sweat dropped as they watched. When the guys noticed the girls looking on with scared, confused, and slightly disgusted expressions they stopped.
" N-Nani?" Kiba asked with and full mouth and some spinach hanging from the corner of it and suddenly the four girls began to laugh. They liked these guys already.

Those same four eyes, that had been watching Hinata all that morning from a distance, stared at the group of teens as they laughed and ate. They grew impatient. They couldn't wait to get their hands on the, oh so soft, skin of the four human females. To gently run their fingers across their skin until they came to the supple flesh of their necks, softly wrap their hands around them, and squeeze the very life out of them. Yes, this is what they wanted to do. What they were assigned to do and oh would it be their pleasure.

Naganegi ( leek stuffed with crab meat in cream sauce)
gohan(boiled rice)
mango and spinach salad with cashews
Oshinko ( pickled cabbage)
Maguro and tako sashimi ( thinly sliced raw tuna and octopus)
Ichigo daifuku( rice cake filled with strawberries and red bean paste)
