Disclaimer: you know I don't own any naruto characters…right?


Kiba smiled as he looked at the necklace. Naruto had somehow managed to put it on her during that final attack.

"Naruto you sly fox you." He said. Just then, Akamaru came running.

"Its okay boy," kiba said, petting his head, "They're both still alive, amazingly. Let's get all 4 of them to a safe location." Akamaru barked in agreement as kiba carefully lifted Aki and Naruto on his companion's back. Akamaru barked again, telling kiba that they were both too heavy.

"Alright boy, I'll carry Aki and you can just carry Naruto." Kiba said, putting the badly injured girl on his back. They were about to walk away until kiba notice something at the corner of his eyes. It was the sword Aki was using while she was possessed except there was something wrong with it.

It was broken in half.

'It must of gotten broken when Naruto's rasengun collide with it.' Kiba thought, walking over to it and picking up the two pieces. That's when he noticed a few words near the hilt of the broken sword.

"Live to Love, Fight to Protect" kiba said out loud, "What's that suppose to mean?" He shrugged and walk towards Lily, Hinata, and Kiki, who seem to come out of no where. Kiba was shocked but shook it off. When they got there, Kiki had lily and hinata on her and looked like she had no trouble holding them both.

"Let's go. I don't like staying in one place for long." Kiki said. Kiba nodded and followed her to a different location.

When Kiki finally stopped, Kiba looked around. They were near a waterfall. It sparkled in the blue moonlight. It was like an angel had touched it.

"Wow," kiba said in a low voice, "This place is amazing."

"Yeah, it is, isn't?" kiki said slowly putting lily and hinata down from off her back. Akamaru did the same with Naruto and kiba with aki. Kiki got out the bottle and gave it to kiba, who put the pills in naruto and aki's mouth.

"You should take one too. You got beat up too." Kiki said, looking at kiba's cuts and burns. Kiba took a look at himself and scratched the back of his head, awkwardly.

"Yeah I guess I did get pretty beat uh." Kiba said and took the pill, watch as injuries started to heal.

It was around 3:00 am when kiba finished putting up the tents. One for Hinata, Lily, and Kiki and the other one for Naruto, Akamaru, and himself. Kiba sighed as he lied down on his sleeping bag with akamaru next to him.

"I hope everything will return to normal in the morning." He said before he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Naruto's P.O.V.

Where am i? What's going on? What happen? Hinata? Hinata! I hope she's okay. If shes not…I don't know what I would do. Wait a minute…is that…light? I slowly walked towards it and…

I'm in front of Kyuubi's cage.

I saw the demon within me staring at me with those evil eyes of his.

"So you return. It's been awhile since you've visit this place." He said, grinning.

"What happen? What did you do to my body? And what about hinata? Is she okay?" I couldn't stop myself from asking so many question. I just needed to know.

"Relax kit, we won. Aki has return to normal and Houkou is sealed away. Both of you fell unconscious after the final blows. You are now in a safe location and most of your wounds are completely healed thanks to some kind of medicine. Your mate is okay. She is sleeping I think. She probably got the same medicine you got." Kyuubi explained.

"She's not my mate!" I exclaimed.

"Not yet."

"…" I blushed and turned my head. I could feel kyuubi smirk at me but I didn't care.

"She likes you, kit." Kyuubi said suddenly.

"What?" I said, turning my head towards the demon.

"Nothing, you'll find out sooner or later." Kyuubi said, "Now get out of here and let me sleep!" And just like that, everything went dark again.

Stupid fox.

Normal P.O.V

Naruto's eyes slowly opened and he looked at his surroundings. It looked like he was in a tent.

Wait…tent?

He shot up and looked to the right and saw kiba and akamaru sleeping. (kiba was snoring a bit. Hehehe.) Naruto then looked down at himself. He thought that he would be bandage up but his body had only a few bandages but not a lot like he thought.

'Did Kyuubi do this?' naruto thought, 'No, even kyuubi couldn't heal all my cuts. There were some that were really deep. It usually takes longer to heal those.' He got out of the tent and notice that the blue moon was gone and the sun was shinning bright above his head. The terrible night was over.

"Everyone must still be sleeping." Naruto said out loud. He looked the left ad saw another tent.

'The girls must be in there.' He thought, 'Maybe I should take a peek, just to make sure hinata okay.'

Naruto slowly crept up to the tent, make sure he didn't wake them up. He opened it a little and a little more to see hinata, kiki, who returned to her small wolf size, and aki. With the blue moon necklace around her neck, just like kyuubi said. Naruto grinned at that. His mission was almost complete. All they had to do was get her back to the village and he could, if he built up the courage, ask hinata out on the date. He blushed at the idea and looked towards the sleeping hinata. Naruto sighed in relieve when he saw her chest raise up and then down, proving she was sleeping peacefully. Then he heard hinata mumble something in her sleep.

"Hmm…Naruto-kun…" Naruto smiled. She was dreaming about him. Then the next thing she said made naruto turn red from the neck up.

"Naruto-kun, I love you…" hinata said. Naruto's heart was beating so fast, he thought he was going to have a heart attack.

'Hinata…you…love me?' he thought, shocked. He never thought that anyone would love more then a friend. Naruto was so happy that he could shout. All of a sudden, he heard a growling sound. He looked down and realized that he was hungry. Naruto took one last look at hinata and the other girls. Just then he realized another thing.

Lily wasn't there.

'If hinata survived, lily must still be alive too.' He thought and looked over next to aki and saw an empty sleeping bag.

"That means…" Naruto left the tent and looked around. He heard the sound of water flowing and splashing. He ran towards the sound. When he reached his destination, he saw a big waterfall and at the bottom of the waterfall, in middle of the lake, lily had kunais in her hand. Naruto saw across from her were 6 fishes with kunais through them. But that's not all he saw.

Lily didn't have her shirt on.

Insert a blushing and embarrassed Naruto.

He ducked behind a bush and peek through the leafs. That's when realized that she wasn't topless, she had bandages from her breast down to her stomach. Naruto's blush disappeared as he sighed in relieve.

Bad Mistake.

As soon as he sighed, a kunai went flying past his ears and hitting the tree behind him.

"Come out" lily shouted, "Come out and reveal yourself!" Naruto slowly came out with an embarrassed face. Lily put down the kunai she was about to throw.

"Oh Naruto, it's only you. You gave me quite a fright." She said

'You're the one who gave me a fright.' Naruto thought, sweat dropping, "Sorry about that. I was just following the sound of the waterfall and I saw you and didn't want to bother, that's all." Lily smiled and walked towards the tree with the now 7 fishes pinned. She took the fishes and put it in a small hand-made basket. Then she walked in the water instead of using chakra to walk on top of the water, and gave the basket to Naruto.

"How about you help cook breakfast?" she said, still smiling. Naruto took a few seconds before he smiled and nodded his head.

"Sure!"

They walked back to the campsite and Naruto put the basket down while lily put the wood, which she collected on the way, in a pile in the middle of the camp.

"I'll start the fire!" Naruto offered. Lily shook her head.

"No, its okay. I got it." She said a few hand signs and put her hand to her mouth.

"Fire Ball Jutsu!" she said and a fire ball came out and lit up the pile of wood.

"You can do fire jutsu?" he asked.

"Yes, I'm pretty good at it too including medic jutsus." She said as she put the fishes on then sticks and stick them into the ground close to the fire to cook.

"Now all we have to do is wait for everyone to wake up." Lily said with a smile. Naruto smiled back and nodded his head.

A few minutes later, the first person woke up. Kiba. He yawned while stretching and notice that Naruto and Lily were awake and cooking fish.

"Ah, so you're awake Kiba. I'm glad. The fish is almost done." Lily said, looking at the almost cooked fish. Just then, Akamaru and Kiki came out.

"I smell fish and it smells good!" kiki said as she jumped in the air, getting ready to snatch a fish until lily pushed her away from the fish.

"No! Wait till they're done!" lily scowled. Kiki pouted and laid down on her stomach, waiting for the fish to cook. Akamaru went over to Kiba and licked the side of his cheek.

"Im glad to see you too, boy." Kiba said, petting the dogs head.

"I'm glad both of you are you guys are okay." Naruto said with a goofy smile.

"Same to you too. I thought you were a goner with all those burns and cuts." Naruto put his index finger under his nose and rubbed it.

"Naw, it takes more then that to bring me down!" he said proudly. Lily smiled at them.

'Its good to see them happy. I just hope hinata and aki wake up soon.' She thought as she looked over to the tent.

Inside the tent

Hinata slept peacefully, dreaming about naruto of course, then she started to stir. Hinata slowly opened her eye and looked around. Slowly, she sat up and winced. Hinata removed her sleeping bag and lifted up her shirt(A/N: all perverts please leave the story now!). She saw bandages wrapped around from her shoulders down.

'My wounds…what happen to me?' she thought. Then it all started to come back to her and her eyes went wide.

"Naruto!" hinata shouted but then winced again. Hinata slowly stood up and stumbled out of the tent. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the petite girl who looked like she couldn't keep herself up. Naruto was the first one to speak,

"Hinata, you're awake!" he said as he jumped and ran towards her and gave her a big bear hug. Hinata winced but Naruto didn't notice.

"I'm so glad." He said softly. Hinata blushed even though she was in pain.

"Naruto…your h-hurting me." Hinata said. Naruto's eyes went wide and let go immediately, blushing.

"S-Sorry hinata." He said.

"Ok everyone, the fish is done. How about we have breakfast." Lily said, smiling. Kiki immediately jumped for the first fish she could get her paws on. Lily sighed as she watched her wolf friend eat the fish quickly.

'So impatient as always.' She thought. Everyone walked over to the camp fire and began to eat, knowing that the struggle was over.

Inside the tent

Aki slept with few bandages like naruto. She kept sleeping unknown of what was happening. Then all of a sudden, her eyes twitched and slowly began to open.
