Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto

Well it seems as though we are coming to a close with our friend Naruto

Thank you people for all the reviews *Grin, Thumbs up* and also i knew u'd be pissed that nami is still alive...plz dont kill me...its for the sake of the story

Naruto and Hinata were still hopping in silence from branch to branch

Naruto was the one to break the silence

"Hinata…are you ok?"

"I'm fine" She said "You can put me down now…I know you're tired"

"No it's ok" Naruto said trying to hide his true fatigue, the truth is Naruto has never loss this much energy before, not even during training

"Naruto…please…I can make it by myself" She said sadly

"….ok" He said while stopping with his head down

They stood in a clearing for a little bit until they were met with there friends the sound ninja

"Shit! An ambush…I can't believe I didn't sense it earlier…" Naruto said angrily through gritted teeth

The Ninja all were ready to attack, and Naruto and Hinata got into there stance but u could clearly see that Naruto looked out of it

They charged and Naruto blocked and gave out hits, a couple times he was punched in the stomach and even got a round house kick (not chuck Norris lol) He fell to the ground

Hinata on the other hand didn't break a sweat since taijutsu was her specialty, but to her watching Naruto look so weak at the moment made her sad

Naruto didn't get up he breathed hard, while he was on his hands and knees he tried to think to himself "What the hell is wrong with me…" As he took kicks from the other ninja and endured them like it never happened

Hinata couldn't take seeing Naruto get beaten like this so she ran over to Naruto taking out sound Ninja who she came across and who was around Naruto

"Come on Naruto, lets go!" she said grabbing his arm

"Go with out me…I'm useless at the moment…" Naruto said with his head down as Hinata stilled tried her hardest to tug the boy from the ground

"Stop that!" She yelled as Naruto looked up into her beautiful white eyes "Don't talk about yourself like you're not strong…you're just a little tired that's all…" She said to him

"No…that's not it…I've just never fought with a reason other than finishing the mission and getting stronger…now I'm protecting people I love….and I've become weak because of it" Naruto said as Hinata fought the guys who were coming back

"What are you saying…If anything you become stronger because you are fighting for the ones you love…just like when you fought against Orochimaru for me, you were very strong"

"My strength hurt you though…and if that's the kind of strength I get out of fighting for love ones... then I don't want to do that"

"Hurt me?" Hinata asked as Naruto looked at her hands that were still a little burned from the encounter with the four tails form "Naruto…I knew this would probably happen if I grabbed you while in that form…but I don't care if I get hurt as long as I have the Naruto I know safe and sound with me…then I'll always be alright" She said as she then killed one of the annoying ninja

Naruto looked up at Hinata and took her words to heart, but he still felt he was wrong in a way and he was a little sad with the decision he made about finishing his mission

Naruto got up with the help of Hinata, he was holding his side but he felt stronger now that he knew he was fighting so he could take her somewhere where she would be safe

"alright…I wanna fight but right now they want you so were gonna get you to the compound and then they will have no choice but to leave you alone…because Uchiha will probably not like trespassers

Hinata nodded but was still kinda sad that Naruto didn't change his mind

They made their get away but the enemy wasn't having that and quickly gave chase

"Damn persistent bastards" Naruto said as the ninja stated to attack using jutsu

They dodge what was coming their way. And Naruto usually took the brunt force of a blow when ever it came towards Hinata

Naruto was bleeding heavily but that didn't stop him from following behind Hinata who didn't notice that Naruto fell behind

"Almost there!" Hinata said out loud upon seeing the clearing then she heard a big THUD behind her, she looked back and saw none other than Naruto, the sound Ninja were farther away now but they were still going to find them, as Hinata ran to the man's side, she cradled his head in her chest

"Hinata go to the compound…I'll be alright…they are after you…just finish the mission" Naruto said

"I won't leave you behind"

"Just leave now!" he said rather harshly as he pushed her back

She nodded and started to run the sound ninja decided to show up they by passed Naruto completely and went straight for Hinata

One of the Ninja who was an excellent marks men and knew of the Hyuga's secret of the blind spot of the Byakugan decided to test something he took out a large kunai and threw it, Hinata on the other hand did not see it coming and was not planning on turning around to engage the other ninja, she was in a world of trouble with out know

"Oh No" Naruto said to himself as he saw what was happening "I gotta stop this…I've never used this jutsu but lets pray that it works and that it doesn't kill me in the process" Naruto said He formed no seal, all he did was close his eyes and left a yellow flash behind him (You should already know the move lol)

Naruto teleported just where he wanted to be since he stuck the seal on Hinata's back when he pushed her; in doing this he took the full force of the big kunai, no one saw what happen but all they saw was a yellow flash and a man standing battle ready

"That was the fourth Hokage's signature move!"

"Damn, we have to leave, he can kill us in the blink of an eye…or even faster!"

"Flee on sight! Ruuun!" The Ninja yelled as they all spread out to different directions

Naruto then grasp his side when nobody was there and fell to the ground very hard

Hinata ran back over to Naruto and cradle his head to her chest like before

"Naruto" She said looking at the blonde headed man to see that his eyes were closed

Naruto took a long time reveal his blue eyes to her "Hey…Hinata…your pretty from this angle" He said with a smile that had blood at the corners of his mouth

She smiled "Thank you" She said with a tear "Naruto…we're almost there" She said trying to hold back tears

"Yeah, but Hinata…"

"Yes Naruto"

"I changed my mind about you going to the Uchiha…I wanted you to come with me"

Hinata cried softly

"Hinata" Naruto called out weakly like before

"Yes Naruto" she said softly

"Can I close my eyes again?…I'm kind of tired"

"Don't close your eyes Naruto…I'm afraid I might not see them again" she said letting her tears flow freely this time

"Yeah, but when I close my eyes I see a place that looks like home…I think I want to go home now, and maybe you'll be waiting for me if I go…and I'll be happy" He said closing his eyes

"Naruto…please don't leave me here by myself…please" Hinata pleaded

IS Naruto truly dead?...will the Ninja come back idk myself
