Chapter 2- A Newfound Discovery

"Naruto, Sakura how long will it be until we reach one of Orochimaru's hideout?" the male Byakukan user asked. Its been two days since they set off for the mission. The four ninjas continued to leap branch after branch as the two Hyuugas were on the look out for any enemies or laid out traps.

"I'm not sure..but if I remember the path correctly, we should be able to reach there tonight." the medical ninja calculated. Sakura averted her eyes to the her idiotic ninja. He had been unusually quiet since this morning, and this was worrying her, and not just her, but Hinata and Neji also noticed his strange behavior and also began to worry. Especially Hinata, after seeing and hearing that last night...

-Flashback-

"Are you sure?" Naruto repeated hoping that he had heard wrong.

"Yeah..if what Kabuto is searching for is what we're all assuming...Then we're screwed.." Kurama, the nine-tailed beast warned. A certain midnight blue haired ninja stir from her sleep as she heard noises coming from outside of the tent. She peaked through the front zipper as she saw her beloved ninja looking as if he was attending a war meeting,. Wondering what could have made the ninja so tense, she stealthily closed in for a clearer view..

"Don't worry guys I'll stop him at all cost. And besides Gyuki and Bee is far away from him so he won't succeed." Naruto reassured with his smile, but doubt was written on the Bijuus' faces and even some had their head down. Hinata stood there clueless as to who the ninja was talking to but continued to listen.

"Naruto...if he does succeeds and all else fails, please use the TenjoKai Seishin no Fuuin jutsu." (A.N- Its a jutsu I made up^^ It mean "Celestial world of the Celestial Being Seal" Jutsu) Shukaku advised. Frustration and anger began to slowly take over his sense of logic, as he let out a small growl and slammed his fist onto the ground. Hinata gasped as she saw red liquid slowly flowed down his from his knuckles. She looked at him in worry of the pain, but Naruto stood there like a statue, as if the pain didn't even faze him, 'Naruto-kun...what's going on? What's making you like this?' Naruto took a deep breathe, suppressing the negative emotion from taking over, "You guys...Don't even think about letting a peep out of your mouths about that jutsu again.. There was a reason why the Rikudo Senin didn't use that jutsu on you guys..and if he didnt use it, I won't..." He trailed off, and gave his trademark smile to them, "If I can't protect those who are important to me, then I should give up on being Hokage right? So don't worry! The time to use that jutsu will NEVER come! Trust me!" Kurama and the other Bijuus smiled, this WAS their idiotic, optimistic, stubborn, knuckle headed ninja after all.

"Naruto...You're seriously still as stubborn as ever." Shukaku chuckled.

"Ahh."

"You can say that again." The Bijuus agreed, Kurama smiled at his host as past memories with the old man replayed slowly on his head, 'Old man, this descendent of yours is exactly like you..you know that? And who knows he might achieve greater power than you...after all, you knew he would be the Child Of Prophecy and the next Savior of this World..."

Hinata stood there as she saw Naruto opened his eyes, his expression replaced with a gentle and determined smile. 'Naruto-kun...'

-End of Flash Back-

Hinata knew that asking wouldn't be a wise choice, when she and Naruto had to put their whole attention on the mission. But her curiosity was running wild, it was like being unable to put the thread through a needle hole, that same frustration that her curiousity was bringing her was being stubborn until it got answers. However, she knew it wasn't the right time and that satisfying her curiosity had to come later.

"Hinata-sama?" Hinata snapped out of her thought, turning her eyes to the person who had called her.

"Hinata-sama, what is wrong?" Neji repeated. It was worrying enough that the knucle-headed ninja was acting weird, but now even his cousin who usually is focused, was starting to act weird.

"I'm fine Neji-nii san, let's just focused on the mission." she assured, as she continued her lookout. Though still doubting, Neji disregarded it and brought his attention back to the mission. Hinata then sighed as she stared at the her beloved ninja in front of her, 'I guess I can ask Naruto-kun later. Right now the mission is more important.' Hinata enchanced her Byakukan, increasing her field of vision, as her eyes caught something up ahead, "Guys there's someone unconscious up ahead, we have to help!" Naruto and the others nodded as they quicken their pace, reaching the unconscious figure minutes later. Sakura examined the unconscious figure, apprising that there were no big injuries, except a small one on the head, "He's going to be fine, no serious damage I can heal him right away."

"Still what a boy doing here in the middle of the forest?" Naruto questioned observing the unconscious. He was wearing a sleeveless shirt showing his toned muscles on his arms. Broad shouldered showing that he was fit in general, But what bought Naruto's attention was his long red hair that reached down to his shoulders. Since finding out from Tsunade herself that red hair marked of the Uzumaki clan, he's been attentive with anyone with red hair. It was with that information that brought him to Karin after the war. Since then the two had gotten really close. 'I wonder if...' The unconscious male stirred, slowly opening his eyes, only to see unknown people crowding against him.

"Where...Where am I?"

"You had a head injury and we found you unconscious, can you remember anything?" Sakura explained. The male figure pondered for a moment only to shake his head in reply.

"Well can you tell me your name? Maybe we can help you." Sakura continued to questioned. The male shook his head again, "I'm sorry I don't remember anything, not even my name..." Disappointment hit Naruto, as he hoped for a different answer. As the nameless boy tried to stand he felt a strict pain in his head bringing him down to his knees. "My head!" Sakura placed her hands on the his head as green chakra traveled out. He struggled as the pain slowly faded, "You'll be feeling pain like this once in a while, but you'll be fine. But you really can't remember anything at all?"

"No...all I remember is that I'm suppose to go the Hidden Leaf Village."

"No way! That's our village! We're ninjas from that village. I'm Naruto. Naruto Uzumaki." The yellow ninja introduced, followed by the introductions of the other ninjas. The red haired figure smiled as he caught himself staring at the the yellow haired teen who called himself Naruto, "Whats this nostalgia feeling that I'm getting whenever I look at this guy?" Unable to remember he shook out his thoughts and brought his attention back, "Thank you everyone for helping me I'm sorry that I can't really properly introduce myself." He frowned, they others looked at the mysterious teen with pity.

"Its fine, and I wish we can take you to the village, but unfortunately were in a middle of the mission." Sakura weakly smiled.

"Well can't we just take him with us?" Naruto idioticly commented, receiving a hit on the head as a result by the medic ninja, "Are you crazy? He just a normal teen with no knowledge of ninjutsu! He can get hurt for or worse for all we know you idiot!" Naruto painful held his wounded head hurt with chibi teary eyes, "You didn't had to hit me tattebayo."

"Well I know this is going to sound stupid, but I actually think Naruto is right on this one." Neji added, bringing everyone's FULL attention as they turned staring blankly at the male Hyuuga, "EEHHH?"

"Neji your not serious are you? We're involving an innocent here! Hinata say something to him." Sakura tried to reason, but stayed quiet, as she turned her head avoiding Sakura's intense glaze, telling Sakura even she agreed with her cousin.

"I know this might sound appalling but think about it. Why was he out here unconscious and moreover lose his memory? The land here is flatland where there's only trees, and hardly anything here that can cause a big impact on his head to a point where he would lose memory. Then this could mean one thing. He was attacked. Everyone eyes widen taking the note to their surrounding only to find Neji's deduction accurate.. Neji continued, "I saw the wound on the head when Sakura was treating it, it seem too small of a wound to cause memory loss. And if I'm right and he IS being targeted by an enemy it means that he must have something valuable that can't be in our village's hands. So I suggest letting him stay until we can get to the village and Tsunade-sama should be able to do something. Is that okay with you?" The teen smiled giving a nod, "Yes and thank you. And when an enemy attacks I'll make sure and hide."

"Hinata-sama can you look after this man? He should be fine with you." Hinata smiled, giving a nod as she gave her hand out to the teen. "Yoroshiku onegaishimasu" The red haired blushed as he saw this beautiful pale lavender eyes, unconsciously taking her hand, "I'm happy that such a beautiful girl is protecting me." NAruto's ears perked quickly turning his head to see the boy blushing like like a tomato. "This jerk has another thing coming if he think he's going to take away my Hinata….wait…MY Hinata…WHAT THE HELL! ITS HAPPENING TO ME AGAIN! WHY AM I SO MAD WHENEVER I SEE ANOTHER GUY WITH HINATA!/.…maybe.." Naruto quickly shook his head giving a small slap or two in his cheeks for a reality check, "I like Sakura-chan…And Sakura-chan only.."

"So since you don't remember your name what should we call you by?" For a few second they stayed their silently conjuring up different name that was suited for him. Naruto brought his right fist to his left palm bringing his head up, "I got it who about Akai? You know cause his head is Red." (Aka-Red in Japanese). The boy smiled with satisfaction nodding proudly, "I like it! Thank you!" Everyone gave a small smile as their attention went on tot he next phase Next stop… Orochimaru's abandon base.

Darkness soon began to conquer over the skies, as the sun shined its last ray of light, letting the glowing white pearl moon become the replacing light in the night. Silence greeted the forest as the four ninja and well an extra person were inconspicuously closing in on their destination. Neji and Hinata gave their signal that the area was clear as they entered the abandoned domain. The inside interior was like a never ending maze, multiple hallways leading to multiple rooms. Naruto formed his hand signs, as thousand of clones of himself appeared. With many clones of himself searching every room it would save the time that they needed. They began their search room after room only to find it empty with piling dusts, and after what it seemed like endless hours, the ninjas were down to one last room they haven't excavated. As his patients were holding in by a thread Naruto hastily opened the door, finding a large room, filled with test tubes, old documents, and machines. Dust filled the whole room showing no signs of presence of a living being for many years. As they took a first step, they were greeted with a loud sound, and soon found themselves on the ground as the smoke began to shroud their surroundings.

"I never knew we would meet again like this, Naruto..." a voice chuckled, as the smoke began to clear.

"Kabuto you bastard..." Naruto growled, glaring at the enemy before him. His face was paler than he remembered. His now fully replaced with white snake like scales. Naruto clenched his fist, just seeing this ninja that started to resemble more of the person that took his best friend made his blood boil. "Naruto calm down! Don't let your anger blind you!" Son Goku warned. Naruto nodded knowing the Bijuu was right and he closed his eyes, and as fast as his father's speed, he grabbed the figure that was closing sending him flying with his punch.

"Naruto-kun!"

"I'm fine Hinata. I'll take care of Kabuto, just hurry up and take the Akai and the others and find whatever it is we need!" He mumbled, blocking the flying kunais with his own. Hinata hesitated for a moment, only to give in the end, as she left his side. As he saw Hinata following his suggestion, Naruto smirked bringing his full attention back to his enemy before him, "Kurama let's end this quick, I want to leave and quickly destory this place." The nine-tailed Bijuu smirked blending his chakra with his host, as yellow charkra began to surround the body, revealing his Kyuubi Mode

"Naruto!"

"Huh? Akai what are you doing here? I thought I told Hinata to take everyone!"

"Naruto I want to help!" Naruto sighed, and he everyone thought he was reckless and stupid. He quickly flew his fist at Akai's upper stomach losing his conscious in the process. He took the unconscious teen and quickly brought him to a safe corner. "That red haired boy.."Kabuto quickly formed the seals with his finger summoning the two snakes towards Naruto. Killing intent struck his is sense as he quickly turned using his reflexes and dodged the attacks.

"Heh What's wrong is this all you can do? Sasuke and Itachi must have done a number on you during the war." Naruto smirked, taking no less then two seconds sending the snakes back to their world. (CHAPTER 577-578 ).

"Tch." Kabuto performed his seal as his chakra enveloped around his hands, swiftly attacking the ninja on his chest. The numbness began to siege over his entire body as he fell on his knees.

"You forget Naruto I'm still have my knowledge of medical ninjutsu. My chakra, in contact with anyone, is able change your whole nerve system around, disabling them to receive any commands or signals from your brain. Do you know what that means? It should be familiar to you, as I myself had been attacked by this very same move."Kabuto smirked. Naruto cursed, as he fell completely on the ground, losing control of his body movements. He cursed as he tried to move his legs, only to have his shoulders move instead. Kabuto pulled out his kunai, his smile overflowing with killing intent. He raised his arm thrusting his kunai, missing its target as it landed on the ground. He turned towards the source of interruption as he saw the blue haired Hyuuga, coating her arms with her chakra."I will not let you lay a finger on Naruto-kun."

"Well well if it isn't the failed Hyuuga ex-heiress..Those fabulous eyes of yours should be of some use to me, as you are from the main branch after all, I shall enjoy ripping it out of your face and experimenting it for my plan!..." Kabuto smirked, as dozens of his snakes went for a direct attack. Hinata closed her eyes, focusing her energy and chakra, "Protection of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!" Her arms soon became invisible to the naked eye, swiftly shifting around releasing her chakra from her palm become her absolute defense. Soon her surroundings were covered in the crystal blue chakra, shielding her. Snakes began decreasing one by one, until the last one disappeared. She took her stance once again, ignoring the exhaustion her body was giving out as she starting panting her air.

"Is this all that the Hyuuga can do? Well I guess it is to be expected from a failure heiress. Now..DIE" Kabuto launched as his cloak fell, revealing this snake body speeding towards the female ninja. Hinata closed her eyes leaving her body vulnerable and open. 'I'd never thought I would ever had to resort to this jutsu but it looks like I have no other choice.'

"Hinata what are you doing? RUN!" He didn't know whether it was his imagination or not, but there and then for just a second Naruto saw a white spark in her chakra. The white spark began to cloud over the crystal blue, fully taking over. "Hyakunijuuhachi(128) Celestial Trigram First Seal, Hevean's hands."

"Oh..what do you have here? I never thought I'd live to see One of Hyuuga's Sacred Holy Trinity Jutsus."

Naruto blinked, speechless at the purity and beauty of her chakra that illumanted around her body and around her hands, not only him but the red haired teen also had his jaw wide opened seeing the beauty before him. Hinata launched forwards, as she attempted to land even a touch on the enemy.

"Heaven's Hands, even the slightest touch can stop not just the chakra circulation but destroys it with its white chakra by piercing it through, cutting off the surrounding network pathway and destroying it permanently. But you'll never land a finger if you keep on attacking aimlessly."

Hinata smiled, as her attack lead her to her waiting clone, "What the-" The clone caught this movements, giving Hinata an opening as she slightly tapped his chest. Everything fell silent as Hinata stood their waiting for what was suppose to happened. Kabuto stood there, feeling coming up through his throat. Red blood spattered all over the floor like vomit as Kabuto fell to the ground, traces of blood still flowing out of his mouth. Hinata stood there as her cloned disappeared, "Its over." The snake ninja smirked as he forced to head to meet the Hyuuga's eyes, "Its not over...Though I must admit I did not expect..a the failure heiress to...master one of...Hyuuga's Sacred Trinity..." He choked out. His body began to deform, as vapor began to fog across the room. "It looks like my experimental clone was a success after, I shall return again.." the voice echoed. As the room cleared, Hinata turned and ran towards NAruto

"Naruto-kun are you ok?"

"Yeah I'm fine, but I can't seem to move my body the way I want it. That damn Kabuto messed my whole nerve system. When I tried to move my legs my shoulders move instead." Naruto struggled as he tried to move his legs. Hinata took Naruto's arms, as she tried to support them.

"Hey don't forget about me!" Akai whailed as he flung his body and accidently kicked Naruto's leg, sending both the ninja down unto the cold floor.

"A-Akai-teme!" Naruto choke as he felt weight on his body. He look and saw the Hinata's face only inches away from his. "N-Na-Naruto-k-kunn." "Hinata..." They felt heat rise on their body, their eyes never averting away from each other.

"Naruto!" a voiced cried, as footsteps became more audible. Hinata quickly got up as both of them turned their gaze away from each other, with their faces red.

"Sakura-chan help me, Kabuto messed up my nerve system and I cant move like I want to!" Sakura sighed hopelessly, taking off her battle gloves, emitting her green medic chakra, healing the red and the yellow haired ninja.

As pink ninja finished her treatment, the group decided to camp until the morning came. Neji placed a small note on the white dove's leg sending it flying towards it ordered destination.

"I sent a note to Hokage-sama, right now we should think of a plan what to do next."

"Well in the end we couldn't find anything that was worth bringing back, and the Kabuto clone didn't seem to have anything either. Did you see anything Hinata while you were fighting him?" The medic turned only to see her head shaking in disappointment.

"Demo Hinata you got so strong! I've never seen such a pretty chakra!" Naruto smiled goofly, as tint of pink appeared on his face.

"His right Hinata-san your were very brave and beautiful might I add." Akai smiled. Her blush deepen in color. Naruto stared shocked at reaction Hinata was giving "Don't tell me that Hinata is..."Neji turned taking notice of the conversation. "Pretty chakra? It can't be...?"

"I-It was nothing Naruto-kun."

"No no you definitely got more powerful! Next time lets train together neh?" Hinata blushed, smiling sweetly, "Sure."
