"Oh, how good it feels to be back and part of team Kakashi and saving Gaara from the Akatsuki. Damn I thought when I came back from that three year training with ero-sannin I might at least get a break" Naruto complained as he, Sakura, and Kakashi were eating at a big bowl of ramen with Kakashi pay and Naruto on his 16th bow. "Sakura-chan what are you doing after this?"
"Actually Naruto I'm going to the cemetery to visit Hinata's grave, you should go you have paid your respects to her in three years. Her name is written on the DIA (DIA means died in action) rock" Sakura said
"Yeah, I should…wait she's dead? When did she die? How did she die? Naruto asked
"You baka!" Sakura said as she punched "Don't you remember she died saving the leaf village from the act from the sound and sand" Sakura yelled as she kept punching Naruto
Flash back
"Neji, what's wrong" Sakura said as she saw Neji crying while she was passing by the hospital door to see Naruto. She came in to see Hinata on the bed and blood all over her
"What happen to Hinata, Neji" Sakura asked as tears went to her eyes
"While I was laying down in the infirmary after the match with Naruto, some sound nins came out of no where and wanted to attacked me but when I braced myself for the attack nothing came and all I saw was Hinata's body on the floor and sound nins dead. By the time I got to the hospital and they admitted her she died, they said she died because her heart was too weak to take all the pain. And I caused her to die, if it wasn't for my hate for her she wouldn't be dead she got her self killed trying to save me" Neji said as he dug his nails deep into his palm making them bleed as he cried. Sakura walked over and hugged and cried into his shirt as well.
End of flash back
"Oh yeah, that's the day Sasuke said that he saw you hugging Neji" Naruto said laughing seeing Sakura blush at the statement
"Well I'll leave you guys to your laughing and remembering here's the money for the bill. And thanks to you I will be broke for a long time" Kakashi said jokingly as he put the money one the counter and left
"Oh, Naruto here" Sakura said handing him a scroll
"What is this for?" Naruto asked looking at the scroll the Sakura gave him
"It says that you will be proctoring the final exam, and me, Ino, and TenTen will be protecting the Hokage, all the rest of the boys will be in the stands pretending to be civilians just incase of an attack on the village. Ok, Naruto" Sakura said
"Yeah, obaa-chan finally picked me to do something use full except for just watching" Naruto said yelling and attracting to much attention for Sakura's liking
"Naruto shut up and come on your attracting too much attention to your self" Sakura said
Naruto looked around to see people staring at him weirdly" S-sorry" Naruto said as he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly got up and ran in the direction of his house leaving Sakura still at the ramen bar
Next Day at the final competition…
"I'm glad to see that these young genin will someday become the new future protectors of this village, I want you to fight to the best of your abilities. Now begin!" Tsunade yelled while everyone cheered
BOOM! A blast of smoke landed on the arena and when it cleared all was seen was Orochimaru and Kabuto and a big fat crater in the earth
"Oh, you thought that you can start the party will out me again" Orochimaru hissed. Feathers started coming down like the first time he attacked Konaha, and all the civilians and some ninjas fell straight asleep
At the gates of Konaha…
A woman with a white robe and hood, two large swords on her back, and three swords at her side, a big fan in her hand, and six small furry things trail after her walked through the gate, scaring the two guards at the gate
"Who are you?" Inari said just above a whisper still shivering in fear
"Catch" she said as she threw the scroll. Izumo caught it and read the scroll
"But I thought you were dead I even went to the funeral that was held for you from the Hyuuga clan. I saw you in the casket, and put into the grave" Inari said
"It was a scheme that me and the third Hokage had but I back now and nothing will stop me. I am and will always be Hinata Hyuuga!"
