Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto

Sorry for the long wait people but its been hard to get on the computer….since people in my house like to hog it…names will not be spoken

Well enough of my personal life on with the fic

Naruto ready's his attack as he charges his big ball of chakra, you could feel the intensity of the ball, it even made everything around it crumble slowly, he aimed the ball at the petrified Nami….

Naruto chose now and shot his blast forward, it quickly destroyed the ground as it headed towards her, and all Nami could do was close her eyes and wait for the impending doom…

But it never came…

Nami registered her surroundings and found that the ceiling was no longer there and that she was surrounded by rubble and three giant shields stood in front of her

"Am I in the other world" She wondered in disbelief

"No" She heard a familiar voice reply

"Orochimaru-sama!" Nami cried with joy

"Hellooo" Said Kabuto who we thought Naruto killed

"Oh…and Kabuto…yay my hero" She said in a plain not caring look

Orochimaru sweat dropped for a quick second before saying

"Come, we must leave now"

"Why? Can you not beat the boy?" Kabuto asked

"That would truly be a challenge for one...also from the looks of outside, it seems as though the fourth has located my hideout"

Kakashi had just finished using his water, fire and wind combination jutsu.

"Well everything is going good Kakashi-sempai" Tenzo said (Yamato) an ANBU who was injected with the first Hokage's DNA, shortly after birth…courtesy of Orochimaru

"Yes but we have yet to find Naruto or Orochimaru" He said pulling out his Kunai and quickly dispatching another sound ninja

Orochimaru's escape would be a hard one, he tried not to engage Naruto, but Naruto wasn't having that, Naruto extended his arm and blocked Orochimaru and his crew's path numerous times, and even knocked Orochimaru about

Orochimaru got up

"Ha Ha Ha…You're making this too fun boy" Orochimaru said licking his lips

There were no words from Naruto as he chased Orochimaru around the now destroyed part of the hideout

Orochimaru was very elusive but Naruto still got some critical hits in that made the snake sannin feel that it was really time to make his exeunt

At this moment Hinata stirred and then woke up with a terrible headache, she looked around and saw total destruction

"Naruto!?" She was freighted as she saw a fox shaped figure chase after Orochimaru, her eyes widen….was that Naruto? Her Naruto…he's out of control

Hinata was panicking, this wasn't the Naruto she knew and knew she developed feelings for, she looked over at Naruto again…something told her that he was in pain from that form he was currently in

Orochimaru had finally got away from Naruto using a mud bunshin, it was surprising to Hinata that he hid very well. But that was the least of her concerns at the moment, Naruto who stood for a moment in the middle of destruction started to go on a mad rampage looking for Orochimaru

Hinata took a deep breath and approached Naruto slowly

He turned around and looked at her not able to recognize friend or foe he stopped all movement and readied his attack

"Naruto…its ok, I'm fine…you see, it's me Hinata…you did good" She said with a smile but still didn't reach him, she still approached

"Please…no more fighting…please" She said with tears in her eyes

This actually got to the boy as he stood still and stopped his attack, but out of nowhere he started yelling (roaring) and holding the sides of his head

Hinata saw this and stopped moving slowly and came in full contact with his body, her hands started to burn on contact from the shear intensity of the chakra…but this didn't stop her from leaving Naruto's side, but it was still taking a great toll on her already tired body

She stood with Naruto who had calmed down, Naruto started to slowly change back to normal

"Thank you…Hinata…but how'd you-" Naruto was cut off by having to catch her in his arms, because she was exhausted , He decided to sit on the ground with her head laying on his chest as he cradled her in his arms

He smiled…but that quickly changed when he saw the burns on her hands...he pulled her closer into a sheltering hug…one single tear rolling down his cheek from his ocean blue eyes…possibly the first and last tear you'll see from Naruto

"I couldn't save you…and in the end I'm the one that hurt you because you had to stop me…I cant let that happen ever again…I have to complete my mission and send you to the Uchiha's to avoid this…This might be selfish…but its because of my feelings that I need to be away from you…but in the end…I think I learned the best ability a shinobi can have…and that's love…I believe I know what love is." Naruto said in a whisper to Hinata…who probably never heard it

Naruto looked down at Hinata's face; it held a serene look, which Naruto couldn't help but smile at and even place a light kiss on her cheek which Hinata unconsciously smiled for…but this was ruined by non other than Orochimaru and his crew who decided to reappear at this precise moment

"Ha ha ha! I see the demon of the bloody whirlpool has feelings after all!" Orochimaru yelled out to him with amusement in his voice

"Shut up!" Naruto said through gritted teeth

"Well it was fun, but I have my experiment I was supposed to be getting around to…"

"I thought I was your experiment?" Naruto asked

"Ha ha ha! Sorry my boy but you were only an ingredient to my real experiment…goodbye!" He said with a menacing grin as he and his crew fled the hide out

As they were relocating to Orochimaru's Next hideout Kabuto decided to voice what was on his mind

"Um Orochimaru-sama...what are you going to do about the Hyuga girl that you wanted?"

"I will have my men who are fighting konoha flee from the battle and attack them Hyuga and the blonde headed one and capture her, he's already weakened they should be more than enough" He said with a smirk

"Kakashi-sempai they are withdrawing" Tenzo said

"Let them go, we have to find Naruto anyway" Kakashi said a little lazily

"You just don't wanna fight anymore so you can read your dirty book" Tenzo said with a knowing look as Kakashi pulled out his favorite orange book and started to walk away with one hand in his pocket

Naruto walked out of the hide out breathing heavily, he looked more than exhausted…nonetheless he still had Hinata on his back

"Kakashi…I'm going to complete my mission now…Orochimaru got away" He said

"Mission first as always…but this time Yamato and I will accompany yo-"

"Hell No, This is something only I can finish now" Naruto said pretty passionately

"Alright, alright calm down" Kakashi said slipping something into Naruto's pocket with out him noticing "The Uchiha Residence should be just a little bit passed the border, have fun"

Naruto grunted in reply, as he left

"You sure this is ok?" Tenzo questioned

"ehh, he'll be alright" Kakshi replied with his nose in the book as Tenzo sweat dropped at his sempai's actions

Naruto was hopping with Hinata on his back she woke up and looked at Naruto who gave her a smile in return

"Naruto"

"Yes"

"Where are we going?"

"…To finish the Mission…" Naruto replied solemnly

"…ok" replied with a tear in her eye

The rest of the way was silence as they neared there destination, both of them didn't notice the mass amount of shinobi that followed…probably because the mission was finally almost over and there's so much on their minds

Orochimaru's men close in on Naruto and Hinata as they near the Uchiha compound will Naruto be able to complete his mission or will they be captured yet again…find out next chapter

Well as you can tell this fic is soon coming to a close...I'm thinking about a sequel what do you think
