AN: OK yay I got two out today! What's to say you can't do much when you are constantly puking! Yay! Lol! OK this chapter as I said takes place with Tsunade and others. It also has a big cliffhanger. So you know you may hate Hinata in this chapter.


Chapter 2 something to ease it all

Naruto and Hinata walked slowly up the stairs to the Hokage's office. As they got closer they could hear Tsunade speaking.

"I understand Shikimaru. You think it's possible that this will push him over the edge?" Tsunade was saying

"I think it could. So I had one of the team members follow him once toad told us where he was. I'm waiting for a response from her, though I'm convinced that she can make him happy."

"May I ask who the operative is?"

"It's Crane."

"Ah she'll do a good job."

At that time Hinata and Naruto opened the door and entered the office. Tsunade was stern-faced, but when she saw Naruto and his red eyes, her face softened. Even Shikimaru had emotion on his face. He was relieved. Shikimaru was wearing an all black cloak that had a hood.

"Hinata! How is it?" Shikimaru

"The fox is fine, for now. Bear and Weasel met with him though. Didn't go well." Hinata responded

"Tsunade-sama, I will be taking my leave now." Shikimaru said and disappeared in a swirl of leaves

When he was gone Naruto and Hinata look at Tsunade. She looks back at them. She bends down and grabs a bottle of sak'e and takes a big swig.

"(Phew) Ok Naruto. How was your training?" Tsunade said

"It went fine. I learned a lot of cool new jutsus from Ero-sennin."

"Hinata. Did you need something?"

"I'm here to watch over Naruto." Hinata said with conviction

"I see, you're services won't be required as long as he is in here, but you may remain as Naruto's friend and as his new teammate."

"New teammate?" Naruto and Hinata said together

"Yes! It'll be you two and one jonin." Tsunade said with a laugh

"Who?" Naruto said

"That would be me." Kakashi said appearing at the window

"Kakashi!" Hinata said

Naruto turned away from him.

"I don't want a untrustable guy like him." Naruto said

"Kakashi. What happened?" Tsunade said

"Well Naruto thinks I told his friends about the Kyuubi." Kakashi said with a sigh

"Naruto!" Tsunade yelled

"Yes baa-chan?" Naruto said

"I told them. I told them all when they became chunin. I thought they were mature enough to accept it. I was wrong, I'm sorry. They have been bent on killing you since they heard. So in response to that we had to form a branch of Anbu directed directly to protecting you. The leader is the White Wolf as we call him. Co-leader is Toad. The next in line is MockingBird. The Crane is the best made for hands-on work."

"I can assume who Toad is. That'd be ero-sennin. But who are the other three. And how many are in this branch?"

"Naruto, I expect you to trust them, and to treat them well. I'm telling you who they are, because it is imperative that you know, and that you allow them access to your new hidden house. Do you agree?"

"New Hidden House? If I'm getting a new house then hell yeah I agree." Naruto said with a smile

"The White Wolf is Kakashi here. MockingBird is Shikimaru, and The Crane is Hinata. Other members that you know of are; Crow is Neji, Bee is Shino, Hawk is TenTen, Raven is Anko, Spider is Iruka, Crab is Gai, and Lobster is Lee. While we have a lot of operatives, we have many people against you. Sadly we can't just arrest them. I'm sorry. We know Kiba is against you, so are Sakura, Ino, Chouji, and many others."

"Ok. Where is this new house of mine?"

Kakashi, Hinata and Tsunade chuckled lightly.

"You're house is the hokage heads. Yes it's a big area. My head is filled with rooms for the top ranking operatives of Foxhole. The leader stays in there. Your room is in the fourth's head."

"Tsunade-sama. Can we take fox to his home? I assume he'll want to explore the training area." Kakashi said

"There's a training area there too?" Naruto said practically bursting with excitement

"Yes. We can't have you training outside where you might be attacked at anytime." Tsunade said

"Oh." Naruto said

'Look on the bright side, the training ground is probably amazing. Plus I'll teach you some amazing jutsus you can use with my chakra. That added in with jutsus Ero-sennin taught you, you'd be hokage level strength easily.' Kyuubi said

'I'll hold you to that.' Naruto said

"Naruto?" Hinata said

"Yes Hinata?" Naruto said

"Shall we go? We need to train together." HInata said grabbing Naruto's hand

"Yes lets. Can we walk to the entrance so that I know where it is?" Naruto said

"Yeah. We'll escort you." Kakashi said

Naruto, Hinata, and Kakashi left Hokage's office without another word. They left the tower calmly, but the moment they were in open area Kakashi got on guard. Even Hinata tensed up. 'How bad is this threat that they get so nervous just being in an open area with me. I mean yeah I've been attacked many times before but they never attacked me if I had a jonin or chunin near me.' Naruto thought. The three of them walked silently to the base of the monument. There Kakashi handsigns and a door appeared.

"In you two." He said as he entered

Naruto and Hinata followed. Kakashi then performed more hand signs and the door disappeared. Naruto, Hinata, and Kakashi followed the winding stairs up to the top. When they got to the top, Naruto was shocked to find a full blown training area. It was complete with trees, and water. On normal circumstances Naruto would have wanted to start training right away, but first he wanted to see his own room. When he asked Kakashi started walking. Naruto followed. They entered a big living room.

"Through the door ahead of us you'll get to the operatives living spaces. Mine and your rooms are on the door to our left. My room is directly next to yours so that if someone finds where you sleep I can respond immediately. I'm a light sleeper, besides from my own years in anbu I've become proficient at sensing chakra signatures even in my sleep. As long as I am there you are safe."

"Thank you sensei."

They took the door to the left and entered a small hallway. This hallway had only two doors.

"The second door down is you're room. Go ahead take a look."

Naruto went in and saw that it was a rather large room. It had a big bookself, that was filled with books, some of them detailed certain fighting styles, and some of them were just light reading. It became obvious that Kakashi picked out the light reading books, when Naruto noticed he now possessed the Icha Icha series. Not that Naruto cared, in his three years with Jiraiya, Naruto had taken an interest in the series, and the next book that was to come out was a joint book between the two of them. On the other side of the room was a rather large bed, and directly next to the bookshelf was a 50 inch plasma screen tv.

"Hey Kakashi. You know the next Icha Icha book is called Icha Icha Night?"

"Yeah I heard."

"Tell me what you think of it please." Naruto said as he moved to a door in the corner

"Sure." Kakashi said

Naruto opened the door and saw that it was his bath room. His bathroom was large. It had a bathtub, that also functioned a shower, and nice-sized mirror and a toilet.

"Naruto may I ask why?"

"Why what?"

"Well why do you care what I think of it."

"Well you'll see why. Hey Kakashi can I go to Ichiraku's? With Hinata only?" Naruto said with a smile

"Of course." Kakashi said

The two of them walked out of his room and met Hinata. Kakashi explained to Hinata that she was to take Naruto to Ichiraku's and to watch over him. Naruto then had to interject and say that she was not to be too tense, that he wanted to enjoy his meal. That prompted a light giggle from Hinata. The two of them left. On the way over to Ichiraku's Hinata taught Naruto the handsigns to open the door. She then let him know, that in all honesty it didn't matter what handsigns he used as long as he was thinking to himself 'I'm a member of Foxhole.' They arrived at Ichiraku's and saw Teuchi and Ayami, at first they didn't recognize Naruto.

"Who's the handsome man, you brought here today Hinata?" Ayami said with a blush

"It's Naruto." Hinata said

"OH! I didn't recognize you! My you've filled out." Ayami said

"Naruto my boy! What can I get you? The meals on the house!"

"OK Teuchi. I'll take 4 pork, 2 beef, and 3 misos." Naruto said

Teuchi got to work. He worked quickly, Hinata and Ayami had a fast-moving conversation. It must have been embarrassing, because both of them were blushing heavily. The only words Naruto caught were; tongue, finger, and tasty. Teuchi brought Naruto his food.

"So Naruto, How was your training?" Teuchi said

Naruto then explained most of his training, leaving out the parts where he went researching with Jiraiya. He also told him about his time with the Toads, also about his meeting with Juunibi. The Juunibi was a fox like the Kyuubi, and it was the Kyuubi's mate. He didn't go into depths about that meeting, but it was something that still left Naruto shaking in excitement. When they had finished their meal Hinata and Naruto left. As they neared home, Hinata stopped.

"Whats wrong?" Naruto said

The only answer Naruto was given was a finger pointing towards a man. As the man came closer, Naruto recognized the man as Hiashi Hyuuga.

"Hinata, what are you doing here with this demon." Hiashi said

"Just doing my job." Hinata said not looking at Naruto

"What?" Naruto said

"Just doing your job? So you've moved on from that silly crush?" Hiashi said with a grin

"Yes it was a silly crush. What was I thinking liking someone so obviously below me in stature." Hinata said

"Hinata!" Naruto said

"Shut up demon." Hinata said coldly

"Come my daughter lets go home." Hiashi said holding out his hand

"Yes lets." Hinata said moving forward

"Hinata I don't understand! Why?" Naruto said with tears forming in his eyes even the Kyuubi was crying

"You think the heiress to the Hyuuga family would want anything to do with you? You're trash!" Hinata said and walked away

Hiashi walked away laughing. All that Naruto could think about was going home. Naruto ran home in tears. He performed the handsigns and entered. He then entered his room and began to cry.

'Kyuubi. I'm sorry, but I have to do it.'

'Naruto. I know. I don't blame you. Do you actually plan to not wake up this time?' Kyuubi said with tears in his eyes

'Yes. Kyuubi I want you to know that you are my best friend. I had so much fun being with you. Tell Juunibi that I would have loved being her son. That if there was a way for me to be reborn, I would want to be reborn as her son. Kyuubi you have my permission, that when my heartbeats for the last time to leave. You may do as you like.' Naruto said

'Naruto. You are like a son to me. I know of a way to make you my son, but it requires me to eat your soul. When I do you may never again be born as a human.'

'Do it when I die.'

'Naruto I promise that I will and when I am free, I will kill those who have hurt you. I promise you! By my nine-tails every person who has pushed such a great man as you to suicide will die.'

'No. Do not kill them.

'Naruto you are too kind.'

'No, I'm not Kakashi and the other members of foxhole will punish them greatly. They won't die before they have felt what I have felt.'

'I understand. Now Naruto I'm stopping my healing chakra from going to your body. You may do it.'

'Thank you Kyuubi.'

Naruto reached down and grabbed a kunai from his pouch. He put the blade to his wrist and pulled. The blade dug deeply. He bled, a lot. Naruto felt himself going weak.

'It is over Naruto. Sleep my son, when you wake you will be a kitsune.' Kyuubi said in tears

Naruto closed his eyes and fell on the floor.
