Chapter 2: Welcome to Sunwater Island
Arrival
Naruto, Hinata, Akari and Genma stood in awe at the sight before them. Sun Water Island was the perfect summer getaway. It had diving attractions, hang gliding, a water park, an endless stretch of beautiful sand and surf, a luxurious hotel, and more wondrous things than you could count. Hinata and Naruto each carried a large suitcase, Akari had a duffel bad slung over one shoulder and a medium sized suitcase while Genma carried only a duffel bag, however, he also carried a large, green surf board.
Naruto and Hinata rushed up ahead gazing up at the tall palm trees that had grown heavy with coconuts, the banana trees, and all the other strange trees bearing exotic and delicious fruit. Naruto attempted to climb one of the tallest trees in order to reach two plump fruits, which had a red-ish violet color and three spade-shaped leaves, but as soon as his feet stuck to the trunk, one of the fruit snapped from the tree and plummeted to the Earth. Gravity took its tool and Naruto lay in the sand with red juice and mahogany colored fruit all in his hair and covering his face. Hinata giggled as she helped Naruto clean his face.
Akari gazed at all the beauty around her, lost in complete bliss. No troubling thoughts crossed her mind as she walked barefoot through the golden sand, her equally golden hair flowing gently in the breeze. The hem of her white dress rippled along as the smooth island draft continued to blow, she felt as if she was finally at peace on this exotic island. She then stopped and dropped her duffle bag and suitcase in the sand. She opened the duffle bad and pulled out a towel large enough for her to lie on, she then spread out the towel on the warm, gold sand. Once she was satisfied with how it was laid out on the sand, she pulled off her dress and placed it, as well as her straw hat, on top of the bag. Under her dress, Akari was wearing a new bathing suit, which she had purchased only several days ago; it was a light blue bikini with white lace, it was simple, but it suited her perfectly and soon enough, as she continued to lay on her towel adding to her glorious tan, there were plenty of people, mostly men, gazing at her as they passed.
Genma noticed all the eyes that were falling on Akari, and a small frown spread across his face. Although he wouldn't openly admit he was jealous, he knew he was. The thought instantly made his face brighten and he quickly wiped it away…well most of the thought anyway… He set his bag down and looked over at the crashing waves. They were quite large and there were many people out frolicking in the cool, blue water. Even though Genma had been sea sick on the ride over to this island, he was an excellent surfer and spent a lot of his free time years ago surfing along various coasts. He gulped a bit, still unsure if he could surf like he had years ago; he looked over to Akari who looked up at two young, tanned men as they walked past, they then began to walk towards her. Genma's frown grew as he watched them flirt with her. He picked up the surfboard and rushed towards the turquoise walls, his heart filled with zeal and jealousy.
Akari had been engaged in a flirtatious conversation with two tanned men for several minuets; she was only playing with them, but decided to let them think she was serious. Suddenly a young boy near the water's edge called out, "HEY! Check out that guy on the green surfboard!"
Heads turned to follow the boy's eyes, but Akari's seemed to widen the most at the sight before her.
Genma was riding atop the largest wave, but it wasn't so simple to say he was just riding it…Genma turned the board with such skill and movement; he might have looked like he was skateboarding on salt water. A turn here, a twist there; every movement was a work of art. Akari's eyes never left him as he continued his act. When the wave turned over its peek, Genma rode his board through the tunnel of water, his hand brushing through the blue curtain. Once he made it through, the water crashed behind him and he gently rode upon it until his board slowly came to a stop. He picked up his board and untied his soaked bandanna, brushing back his wet hair and, gazing in Akari's direction, a flirtatious smile spreading across his face, followed by a little more than friendly wink.
Akari couldn't help but blush.
Her eyes moved from his gleaming hair to his shimmering collar and followed drops of water as they gently flowed down his muscled body. She thought back to Christmas morning and the events that followed after she had woken up and received her first "present" of the day. She blushed a deeper shade of red at the memory and came to realize how big Genma was without even seeing him.
Once Genma had finished his display, those who had watched him broke into applause. After a few moments, he was surrounded by young children, impressed surfers, and giggling girls. Akari forced herself through most of the crowd, but struggled to get to the front. She called out to Genma as her hand reached out to him. Genma searched for her then felt a dry touch on his glistening shoulder, he looked to find Akari's fingers brushing against his wet skin. He grasped her hand and pulled her close, then, using is surfboard, pushed his adoring fans out of the way.
Once the crowd dispersed, Genma and Akari made their way to their abandoned baggage. Akari replaced the straw hat onto her head and Genma picked up his suitcase. Once all of their things had been accounted for, they met up with Naruto and Hinata and headed for their hotel rooms.
Bed Trouble and Invitations
They had rented two rooms; each with one queen sized bed, and decided that the girls would be sleeping together. This rule also applied to the guys, much to their displeasure. Naruto and Genma glared each other down; their suitcases each were on half of the bed and veins were popping in their necks. A fight was about to begin and someone was going to get the bed to himself.
Naruto gritted his teeth and started. "The bed is mine!" he yelled, stomping his foot forward and raising a fist, "I claimed it!"
Genma scoffed, turning his head from his blonde roommate, crossing his arms and closing his eyes in annoyance, "Feh. Could you be anymore childish Naruto?"
"Could you be any more annoying??"
"Why yes. Yes I can. Out of all the come backs you could come up with you had to call me annoying…"
"Well--you're--OLD!"
This comment caught Genma off guard. Is twenty-six really that old? ((He's probably older than that, but he looks like he's in his twenties so get off me)) He asked himself before he fought back once again, "Well at least I'm a Jounin."
Naruto was quite angry by now and decided to hit back hard. He smiled and said in a voice just barely audible, "At least I have a girlfriend."
The room was silent for several moments and Naruto had guessed he had won, when Genma suddenly turned to Naruto, his face lost in a heart-broken expression and his eyes slightly wetter than normal. Naruto was taken aback slightly and was about to apologize when Genma suddenly embraced Naruto, shiffeling and sobbing as if Naruto had just told him Akari had been murdered. Naruto was silent and a bit embarrassed as he stood there with a grown man crying onto his shoulder.
"Oh Naruto!" Genma cried, "Why must you be so cruel!" Naruto was too uncomfortable to reply, seeing as how Genma seemed to be acting a bit "friendlier" with him than normal, and Genma continued, pressing his own body against the scared teen, "Just because you think I don't have a girlfriend you instantly think I'm alone! Why must you be so--so--"
"OK I'm SORRY!" Naruto finally blutred out, trying to push Genma off him. Genma stopped hugging Naruto and wiped away the last tear that was falling from his eyes. After a few sniffles, Genma continued, "Its good to hear our apology Naruto, thank you." He looked over to the bed, then turned again to Naruto, a smile spreading across his face. His arm then wandered to Naruto's shoulder and he inched his face closer as well, he then whispered into the blonde's ear, "You know...we don't have to fight over the bed...we could sleep together like the gir--"
"You can have the bed." Naruto stated, silencing Genma with a firm push to the face and a small streak of pink forming on his own.
Works every time. Genma said to himself delightfully as he landed on the bed, placing his arms behind his head and breathing a sigh of relief.
Akari stood looking at the view of the ocean from the back deck of the hotel room she and Hinata were sharing. Her mind was racing with questions and memories and ideas of things that could happen on this vacation. She was so lost in desperation, confusion and romance that she didn't hear Hinata's question. She jumped slightly when she felt someone's hand touch her shoulder and turned sharply, her face red, only to see Hinata looking a bit starteled.
"Are you ok, Akari-san?" Hinata asked, looking worried, "You're face is really red. Are you feeling alright?"
Akari sighed. She was getting to tense. She needed to relax. "Yea." she replied, placing her hand behind her head and laughing a bit, "I guess I'm a little tense from the ride over. Maybe I'll take a bath." Akari walked over to the bathroom door, turned around, walk to her duffel bag, pulled out her towel, and then finally walked into the bathroom. Hinata raised an eyebrow and wondered what was wrong with Akari. She had been acting different ever since they had left the boat; she even thought of knocking on the door to see what might have been wrong, when she suddenly felt sick to her stomach. She clasped a hand to her mouth and rushed to the bathroom door, bursting in and placing her face over the toilet, releaving herself of what had come up so suddenly. After she had finished, she coughed several times as Akari placed a gentle hand on her back.
"Hinata-chan!" she asked, worried, "Are you ok? What happened?"
Hinata sat down on the tiled floor of the bathroom, her breathing heavy as she tried to calm herself. What was that about? she asked herself, placing a slightly quivering hand on her chest, why did that happen so suddenly? She looked up at Akari, who had not yet gotten ready to take a bath, as she was flushing the toilet, a concerned look on her face. Hinata, slightly confused, asked "Akari-san? What's wrong?"
Akari turned to Hinata and sighed. She put the lid on the toilet down so she could sit and talk. "Hinata--" she began, stopping as if looking for the right words, "That--that could have been morning sickness..." she finally said, "When was the last time you and Naruto had...unprotected sex?"
Hinata's lavender eyes widened. It had been over a month since the two of them were intimate without protection, and Hinata hadn't had her period in over two months. There was a very high chance what she and Akari were thinking was true. Hinata looked up at Akari with pleading eyes, Tell me its not true, Hinata begged in her mind, tell me its not TRUE! Akari took a deep breath and placed a hand on Hinata's shoulder, a smile spreading across her face. "Hinata..." she whispered, "I need you to be calm for a little bit, ok? Don't be afraid." Hinata was confused, but remained as calm as she could. Akari placed a gentle hand over Hinata's lower abdomen and concentrated a small flow of her chakara there. She listened and looked inside Hinata for any sign of a child. She couldn't hear anything, but looked a little harder. Hinata was a bit uncomfortable with Akari touching her that way, but kept calm as Akari had instructed.
Akari finally removed her hand from Hinata's abdomen and sighed, looking at Hinata reassuringly. Hinata gasped and smiled, a tear falling from her eye. The two embraced one another, one close to tears the other bearing ones. Akari helped up Hinata and walked her to the bathroom door, saying, before she closed and locked it, "Make sure to have some rest, the chakara that flowed into you from me might be a bit much for you to handle. Also, make sure to talk to Naruto about this, you both need to be more careful next time."
Hinata nodded and walked back to the bed to find some comfortable clothes she could sleep in. Akari had given up the bed to Hinata, which she was grateful for, and she had decided to sleep on the couch for the night. Hinata decided to put some bedding down for her until night and was carrying some pillows over to the couch when she noticed a small white envelope by the door of the room. She placed the pillows on the couch and bent to pick up the letter, as she opened it she found it was an invitation and read the following:

and desserts will be provided for your enjoyment as well as karaoke, dancing, and fantastic

SunWater Hotel
Hinata's eyes brightened and a smile spread across her face as she read the words printed on the simple card and she placed it down on the table, searching through her clothes for the perfect dress for later in the evening.
Akari lay in the steaming water. The darkness surrounding her was calm and warm like the water, but it was too empty. Her eyes were closed and her hair hung about her in the water, keeping her in somewhat of a protective grasp. A large lock of her hair parted to show the seal; it had always appeared once a month ever since she had first placed it there when she was four years old, it would always and only appear on nights of the new moon. Yet the moon would be full this night.
Akari opened her eyes and looked up into the darkness, from it there slowly came a white light, a light she knew from so many years ago. From the white appeared her savior; a demon lord so powerful it matched the strength of the Nine-Tail Fox, yet whose heart was purer than that of a child's. His mane shimmered a pale blue hue and his scales were a pale color of the sea, like a faded hue of Akari's bright eyes. His long, snake-like body was twice the length of three hundred marching men and his limbs were strong and tipped with eagle talons. His horse-like head was blessed with gentle eyes, antler-like horns, and mess of blue-green fur, which also ran down his spine and ended at the tip of his tail in a large tuft of hair.
Akari now seemed to be floating in nothing; the light made the water surrounding her translucent, and her naked body was surrounded by golden streams of silky hair. She looked up to her God, her saver, and smiled. He gazed down at Akari with loving, father-like eyes and gently brushed his snout under her chin, speaking to her without voice, I missed you, my child.
I missed you too..., she replied, gently touching his soft shout with slender hands.
Have you finally master the use of my powers?
Its taken me fifteen years, but I have control over them now.
The demon removed his head from under her chin and wrapped his body around her, keeping her protected in her suspended state and asked the question. What are you going to do?
Akari was silent. She closed her eyes once more before drifting off into consciousness, I'm going to wait and see where the water will take me.
