Secrets Revealed


Kakashi read his perverted book as Naruto slept. Apart from the moon and stars, the fire was the only source of light. The chilly breeze blew into their small area, only making it colder than it was before.

The fire went out as a stronger wind blew past them. Kakashi closed his book and hopped down from the tree he sat in.

"Naruto," he said.

"Ugh, give me five more minutes!" he groaned.

"Do you want your answers?"

"Yeah but we don't have a time limit."

"We do actually, Tsunade-sama wants me back at the end of this month," he replied.

"What? That's only two weeks!"

Naruto started to count how many days he would need to answer all of his questions.

'Six days to Suna and back, this leaves eight days to study. I'm no good with books!'

"Two weeks isn't enough! I need at least three!" Naruto argued.

Kakashi shrugged. "Hokage's orders."

"It's only been a day but it already feels like a month," Hinata said to herself.


Due to Naruto's absence, Hinata was allowed to wonder around the house freely, but only the house. Outside she must have at least one guard…just in case.

Hinata walked around in the living room with nothing to do. Tenten was sitting on the couch, watching her.

"Hinata, don't you want to go outside?" she complained.

"I would like to but I don't want anyone to follow me."

The brunette sighed. Neji had asked her to keep her company and do "girl stuff".

"So, uh, you like stuff?"

"I guess, so, yeah," Hinata replied.

"Hmm, stuff is cool."

"Tenten, how is your relationship with Neji-nii-san?" the heiress asked.

"Well, it's going good. With all of the missions and that, it's kind of hard but we're used to it. Whenever Neji is out on a mission, I wait for him. People say I shouldn't wait and make myself bored but, it's what I do. Why do you ask?"

"It's because of my relationship with Naruto. With Father around, it is so hard to stay together. Father doesn't want us married even though it is my wish."

"Oh," Tenten replied quietly.

"Tenten, when do you think Naruto will come back?" she asked.

"Probably two or three weeks. I hear Tsunade-sama needs Kakashi-sensei as soon as possible for another mission."

"At least it's better than two months."

The two girls continued to chat on about random stuff, most of them were about boys and confessions that they would never tell anyone else. Their fun was interrupted by Hanabi.

Hanabi was panting from her long run from Father's room. She had news for her older sister, terrible news.

"Hinata, Hinata!" she screamed.

"What's the matter?"

"I-it's father! I heard him talking about a marriage between you and that Uchiha boy!"

"What?"

Hanabi nodded in confirmation. Hinata, who comfortably sat next to Tenten leaned on her shoulder and cried.

"This can't be! Father knows about what had happened!" Hinata cried, hoping it was all a misunderstanding.

"At least it isn't as bad as a strong demon inside in-"

Hanabi covered her mouth. What she knew about Kyubi was almost released. Hiashi had told her everything about Naruto and she had promised not to say a word about it.

Hinata's crying stopped. "What did you just say?"

"Oh, uh, I didn't say anything. It was…uh, just my imagination. Yeah, my imagination!" Hanabi didn't know what else to do except to run. "See ya!"

Tenten had also been informed about the demon. Only she and Neji were allowed to tell her. She didn't want to though. What if she was put into a state of confusion and torture? Hinata already had enough of Hell. However, telling her would explain everything, all her questions. She wouldn't have to wander around to try and piece things together without a clue.

"Uh, Hinata, there's something I have to tell you."

"What is it?"

"Well, uh, it's about Naruto. I told to tell you this, well not really told but I thought you needed to know this piece of information." Tenten could already Hinata listening her every word. "Naruto…Naruto has the Kyubi sealed inside of him."

Silence. Hinata didn't answer. She was shocked.

"Kyubi…that's the demon that attacked Konoha years ago. I read in a book that the Fourth Hokage killed Kyubi."

"He didn't," Tenten admitted. "He sealed the Kyubi in a newborn child and that child was Naruto."

"Who told you this?" Hinata asked.

"Hiashi-sama did."

Anger boiled up inside of the heiress. Naruto and Sasuke, how could he do that to them? Why didn't her father tell Naruto and get along?

Her emotions took over. She had to see her father. It was urgent. She needed her part of the answers. She ran. She ran from the couch to her father's room.

She smacked the door open and screamed, "Why didn't you tell me this?!"

The men and women of the meeting were horrified of the heiress' manners. They all thought the same thing, does she know to knock?

"Darling, so glad to see you. I'm terribly sorry but I'm in a meeting now," Hiashi said.

"Tell me now! Did you purposely make Naruto leave the village? Am I going to marry that bastard?"

"Of course I didn't make Naruto leave the village! He did it on his own will," he lied. "And yes, you will have to marry Sasuke. His father and I planned on the marriage the day you were born."

"W-what?"

"I was planning for you to marry Neji but I changed my mind. Anyway, the Uchihas is the second strongest clan in Konoha. It's only natural."

Shock, fear and anger mixed together inside of her. Naruto wasn't going to be her husband, instead Sasuke will be.

"Father, aren't I allowed to decline this?" she asked.

He shook his head. "It's what we have to do."

Inside, Hinata knew her father was enjoying every bit of it. He had wanted Naruto to suffer but in order to do that, a sacrifice had to be made, her daughter's happiness.

It was all too much. She ran. She ran away from his room, away from the Hyuga household. She wanted to be alone and there was only one place to do exactly that.


Just a notice, I changed the summary a bit and the story. I was thinking of something and that couldn't be done without Sasuke's help. I wasn't originally going to put him in this story and I kind of went off track starting from chapter 6. I thought I'd put in some excitement that wasn't really supposed to be there. So anyway, please review!
