Chapter 7

Naruto was not having a good day. Naruto had wanted to wake up early today and stake out the Hyuga compound. Things didn't go as planned. First she woke up late and had to miss breakfast. Next, some of the villagers saw her and decided it would be a good idea to chase her. Now Naruto was racing towards the Hyuga clan house easily overtaking her pursuers, when she saw a foreign shinobi in front of Hinata.

Naruto had to act quick, she was about to form a rasengan, when she heard Kurama inside her head.

"Don't do it kit. Her father will notice you using that a mile away. You will have to think of some other way to save her." Kurama was right, Hiashi Hyuga was the head of the clan for a reason. Naruto noticed that the foreign ninja had grabbed Hinata.

"You're coming with me brat." the shinobi growled.

By than, Naruto's pursuers were right behind her. So Naruto did the only thing she could think of. She ran towards him in lightning speed, and head butted him in the stomach.

"Why are you trying to kidnap Hinata, you idiot." She yelled. While he was down, she discretely hit a pressure point on her neck, to make him pass out. Naruto looked up to find Hiashi Hyuga staring at her. He had a mix of different emotions on his face, but what came through the most was relief. He was about to say something to her, when the crowd around her starting talking.

"Why did the demon brat attack the cloud ninja?" One of her pursuers asked.

"Did the cloud ninja just try to kidnap the Hyuga heir?" Another voice came up. Soon all the villagers were discussing the failed kidnapping attempt. By than ANBU had made it to the scene and grabbed the cloud ninja. Naruto used the commotion around her to escape.

Not even an hour later a ANBU operative appeared before her.

"Naruto Uzumaki, the Hokage has summoned you." Naruto sighed, she should have seen this coming. When she reached the tower she noticed that there was others there other than the Hokage. Hiashi was with two other members from the Hyuga clan. One was obviously a clan elder, while the other one was an exact copy Hiashi. 'So that's Neji's father. I'm in trouble aren't I."

Jiji spoke first, "Hello Naruto. Please tell us what happened earlier with the cloud shinobi." Everyone's eyes turned to her.

Naruto sighed and explained. "Well I was running through town, and I saw a strange man infront of the girl I go to school with. I remembered her because she had really cool eyes, named Byakugan. So anyway, I saw the strange ninja grab Hinata and he said that she was coming with him. It really looked like he was kidnapping her, and I didn't like that. So I head butted him and boy did he go flying back. I know I'm not supposed to hurt other but he deserved it. Kidnapping is bad. It doesn't matter if I get in trouble."

Most of the people looked at her with various degrees of amusement. Jiji broke the silence.

"No, Naruto you're not in trouble. You should feel proud of yourself. You did a great job in protecting young Hinate." Hiashi stepped in front of Naruto.

"I would like to thank you for saving my daughter. The Hyuga clan owes you a great clan debt in gratitude."

"It was nothing." Naruto murmured in embarrassment while rubbing the back of her neck. Hiashi gave her a rare tiny smile. "Oh ya, why did they want Hinata anyway." Naruto asked. The room tensed. Jiji looked at Hiashi in question, who nodded at him.

"Naruto, you mentioned before the Byakuganeyes correct." Naruto nodded at the Hokage. "Well the Byakugan eyes allow someone to see through things and even see a person's chakara system. It is a highly sought after ability." Jiji explained

"Ok, but why did they need Hinata, couldn't they grab another person from the Hyuga clan." Naruto pushed.

"No, they couldn't. The Hyuga clan is divided into the main and branch families. The branch family have a seal placed upon them, so that after they die they the Bakugan would be sealed with them forever. Only the main family does not have the seal, so only from them could someone potentially steal the secretes of theByakugan. Hinata is part of the main family." He purposely left the punishment part out of the explanation. The three members of the Hyuga clan remained quite during the whole explanation.

"Well that stupid." Naruto commented. The elder Hyuga member immediately bristled at his words and the Hokage turned to Naruto in reproach.

"It's true, think about it. Wouldn't it be better than to seal all the members of the Hyuga clan, so that no one could take the secret away. Hinata being almost kidnapped proved that. What's the point of a main and branch family?" Naruto said with more wisdom in her eyes than five year old could have.

"Listen hear you insolent girl. The Hyuga clan will always have follow the ways of our ancestors. Do not mock our ways."The elder glared at her.

Naruto turned to Hiashi. "You said that you owe me a clan debt right?" Naruto asked. The man simply nodded at her. "Than I want you to dissolve the main and branch families, and only have one family. I know you want to protect your ability, so have everyone in the family have a seal that seals away the Byakugan after they die. This way you can all be a big happy family and protect yourselves. Everyone wins right." Naruto proclaimed.

Hiashi Hyuga looked intently at the tiny girl in front of him. How was it that someone so young had so much wisdom? Hiashi, deep down inside, always knew the flaws of the traditions of the Hyuga clan. It was what kept him from forming a strong bond with his twin brother, something he had always regretted. But after years of trying to please his father and the council, he had become stuck in their ways and stopped seeing all the wrongs of his clan. This tiny girl in front of him, that was even younger than his oldest daughter, had the courage to bring the wrongs back into the light. She had given him a legitimate chance to change the clan into something better. No longer would he allow the council to dictate and destroy the future of his family. Hiashi, even though he had a hard time showing it, loved both his daughter dearly. He now had the chance to make sure they never felt the pain of separation that he had felt with his own brother. He could now also begin to repair and strengthen his relationship with his brother. It was ironic of how the girl who had no family had saved his family with her logic. The truth was by fulfilling her request, he and the Hyuga clan would owe her a bigger debt, for she had saved the future of their clan twice over. Hiashi knew that one day the girl in front of him would become someone great, and he would do everything in his power to make sure that she did. His thoughts were interrupted, when he heard in enraged voice.

The elder was infuriated, "Who do you think you-" he was about to protest when Hiashi raised his hand.

"We owe this girl a great debt. If it wasn't for her, the Byakugan secret could have been taken forever and my daughter would have been killed. We will honor her request." When the elder would have protested against it some more, Hiashi went on further to say, "We already gave her a clan debt, it would bring great shame on the Hyuga clan if we were to refuse her request. A clan debt is unbreakable. You know that as well as I, elder." The elder couldn't say anything against that, but it was clear that he was extremely unhappy.

"Please excuse us sir hokage, the clan has much to discuss. I also request that you contact Jiraya-san to help with the seal" Jiji nodded. Hiashi turned to Naruto and stated to her "Know that you are always welcome by the Hyuga." With that Hiashi turned away and left with the elder. Neji's father, Hizashi Hyuga, lingered. He got on his knees in front of Naruto, so that he could be on eye level with her.

"You are a good girl. I wish that my son Neji, will be as kind as you someday." With that he followed his brother out.

Hiruzen was speechless. How was it that one little girl had changed the ways of the rigid Hyuga clan, a feat that even he couldn't accomplish, in less than a day? Now the Hyuga could finally move to a better tommoow. Also Hiruzen didn't have to worry about the Raikaga retaliating, because the kidnapping attempt had a lot of witnesses. Not only that but because the kidnapper was still alive, the Raikage owed them a debt to keep the peace. All of this because of one girl. Hiruzen started to laugh so hard that he had to hold his sides. 'Oh god, only Naruto'

Naruto was confused. "Why is he laughing like that." she asked Kurama. To her surprise and bewilderment he started to laugh at her comment too."

"No reason kit. He just saw a baka preform a miracle."

"Thanks...Hey!" Naruto protested. Kurama just laughed harder at that.

Hiruzen noticed that Naruto was looking at him sullenly. After getting his urge to laugh under control, he smiled at her. "Naruto not only did you save a young girl, you have also potentially saved a whole clan today. I am so proud of you. You really do have an excellent chance of taking this hat away from me one day." Naruto beamed up at him.

"As for what we spoke about yesterday, I found you a teacher who will help you learn. In fact he should be here any minute, if he's not late." Jiji told her. Right then someone appeared on the window still. Naruto turned to see who it was.

"Yo." Spoke one Kakashi Hatake. Naruto wanted to slap her face in exasperation, how was it that Kakashi sensei ended up being her teacher again. She would be ecstatic that he was her teacher again if it wasn't for three things. One was that he was always late. It grated on her nerves waiting for him. Two was that he was always reading his perverted books. Was she destined to be surrounded by perverts all her life. Most important was that Kakashi was smart. It would be hard to keep things a secret from him. Naruto just mentally shook her head. The truth was that, she missed learning from him. She had been so busy after the war in her time-period, that she didn't really have the time to see him. She couldn't wait to juice him of all of his jutsus, he wouldn't know what hit him.

Futakomori: Hi. I'm glad your liking my story so far. I think your kind of right when you said it felt some parts feel a little rushed, I think it ended up like that for three reasons. One reason is that I honestly have very little idea of what going to happen next in my story, I right it as it comes to me. I only have the vaguest of outlines in my head and even that's likely to change as this story progress. So I guess I'm really inexperienced in this area. Two is that at that point, where Naruto meets her friends for the first time, I felt that she would be really impatient to be friends with them again and her friends don't realize at first that she is the one her parents want to keep away from. All they know about her is that she is apparently really good at kunia throwing, and to them as kids who are training to be shinobi it would seem really appealing to see what this new girl can do. The third reason for why it seems rushed because I kind of wrote it in a hurry. I wrote the first few chapters all in a single day, and at times my imagination went bust. I was just in such in a hurry at times to write down the ideas that were in my head, that I didn't actually have a chance to elaborate on them. It's something I have to work on. Lol, I think why I refer to Naruto as a guy by mistake at times is because in between writing this story, I was also reading Naruto fanfiction from someone else, so I guess I did it unconsciously. But for some reason I think that Naruto makes a better than he does a guy, just my opinion though. Maybe I should just call her Naru from now on to avoid making that mistake. Naruto has one ponytail in this story and it is a bit longer than her shoulders. In my imagination, I just see Naruto being so irritated with to much hair. Anyway thank you for liking this story, and for taking the time to review. Also thank you for not trying to rush me, I have this unreasonable fear that if I don't update fast enough people will abandon this story. Guess its first timer writer nerves.

idea getthe: Don't worry, Itachi will have a role in her training as will some others eventually. I guess Kakashi is just an easier person to write about, since we know more about him. Also there is a reason why Naruto suggested chakara affinity training, she will be learning new things so it wont be the same old same old. Thank you for giving me the idea of exploding shadow clones, I might use that. Also thank you for pointing out my grammar mistake, it was supposed to say: "You dobe, they all think that your in idiot now. " I went back and fixed it. Thank you for taking the time to give me your opinion on this story, it was helpful.
