CHAPTER 9

A/N… okay, I'm not quite sure why everyone keeps asking me or talking about a…. Full Metal Alchemist crossover, because I'm not quite sure what that is… since I got the idea from Supernatural ;) but I've been told what it's about after I questioned ArinaSugarBaby and those who have watched it, should know where I'm going with this fic… haha :)

You know what? I suggest all you people who have watched Full Metal Alchemest, to not worry, because this is nothing like it, because I haven't watched it and I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be anything like what I have planned. The whole reason I came up with this is because I needed to come up with an enemy, and I was watching supernatural, so the idea came to me… if you really want evidence, watch season 3 episode 1… then you'll know where I got the idea off of… okay, this is not a crossover… okay? Just sit back, realax and enjoy my fic please?

Oh, yeah… guess what? We'll end this on an awesome note… I'm in the top ten best netball players in our whole grade! I'm so damn proud of that… :P, but I don't know what number I am, because I wasn't there, but one of my best mates came and told me about it.. man, I'm so happy… and my team is in the GRAND FINAL! :P

Oh, P.P.S I've got a new story online… it's called Just My Luck and if you hadn't alreade, please check it out. :)

** DEMON COUPLE **

LAST TIME…

Hinata could hear growling from her earpiece, obviously coming from Naruto, who could hear everything that was said. "D-don't touch me!" Hinata choked out as he dragged his clawed hand over her bare leg. He slowly climbed onto Hinata, until his face was over hers, tears streaming down her face.

That's when the door burst open.

** DEMON COUPLE **

** DEMON COUPLE **

Suddenly the door burst open, two large relatives of the dog charging straight for Lust.

"What the hell is that thing?" Sasuke yelled in shock.

Hinata just winced, "I don't care, JUST GET IT OFF OF ME!"

Naruto was already there, giving the creature a solid kick to the side, making him hit the wall in the side of the room. Sasuke went after the beast while Naruto turned back around to release Hinata of her bounds.

"Are you okay?" Naruto asked, once he sliced through her bounds with a kunai. She immediately moved, flinging her arms around Naruto's neck, shaking.

He gave her a soft look, and rubbed her back gently, before moving her so he could look into her eyes. "Let's take out this bastard, okay?"

Hinata's eyes hardened as she nodded, and the duo ran over to where Sasuke and Lust were battling.

"You interrupted me! You will die!" Lust yelled as Naruto and Sasuke charged, a Chidori sparking in Sasuke's hand while Naruto had his arm held back, hand clenched shut in a fist.

Sasuke pushed his Chidori towards Lust's chest, but was stopped when a hand grabbed onto the side of his arm, flinging him back into the wall beside him. Naruto didn't have much luck either, as soon as he got close, he was thrown away with ease. Hinata had also joined the fight, running in with her palms flat out, only to have her leg grabbed by Lust, and thrown into the ground, the snap of her leg audible, echoing throughout the room, followed by a breathless scream of agony. That scream set Naruto off, he sent Roki to take care of Hinata as he charged, his features changing slightly, making him look more animalistic. But it did him no good, he managed one solid punch, which , thankfully, at least drew some blood, but he was tossed aside once again.

Lust knew that this guy had some intense power locked inside him, and he had to get out quick, just in case he used that power. Sure, the kid was easy to beat now, but after snapping his girlfriend's leg, it wouldn't last long before Naruto stared using that power. "Well, I am out of here. Next time, you won't get away so easily, me and my six brothers will kill you all if you get in our way. We have big plans for the future and you weaklings better not get involved or you will be exterminated. And you can't take on all of us." He glared, then suddenly disappeared into thin air, startling everyone with his pure speed.

"Something big is in our future." Sasuke stated, turning to Naruto and Hinata, who was now situated on Misaki, with Roki walking next to them to make sure she doesn't fall off.

Naruto and Hinata nodded in agreement, "Well, there's seven guys. Do you think they're all that strong?"

"I don't doubt it." Hinata sighed, "And don't forget his master. Obviously there was someone who created him. And his brothers. If this guy can create seven guys that strong, we will have a lot of training to do. We obviously need to stop them. But, they probably won't be doing anything soon, we just need to keep out eyes open for that sort of stuff."

Sasuke nodded in agreement, "We can't underestimate these guys, or the results will be fatal. But we shouldn't worry about it right now. First, we need to get Hinata to the hospital." He said, taking charge and the group headed towards the hospital.

** DEMON COUPLE **

Naruto and Sasuke were stuck sitting in a room they all knew too well. But this time they weren't the ones that were in the hospital bed, they were sitting on chairs watching the young Hyuuga twitch in her sleep.

Sasuke smiled at Naruto's expression as he watched the girl tenderly, almost excitingly, waiting for her to wake up. But both smiles on the guys faces dropped when Hinata started twitching more and mumbling words that none of them could make out. She was obviously having a nightmare, sweat dripping from her face. Naruto and Sasuke made eye contact before one going on each side of the girl and holding her gently, trying to get through to her.

"Shh… Hinata, it's okay. You're having a nightmare." Naruto tried but got nothing out of the girl.

Sasuke wasn't having any luck either, he was holding her still to stop the trembling and even thought about slapping her a few times, but decided not to because Naruto would've had a go at him. "Hinata, come on, wake up. It's okay, everything's okay." Sasuke sighed when nothing worked looking up to Naruto, tho was looking straight at him.

"What do we do? She's freaking out!" Naruto said desperately.

"I don't know, but we need her to wake up." Sasuke gently sat the girl into a sitting position, patting her on the back trying to get her to wake up.

Naruto couldn't stand seeing her like that, so, on instinct, he leant over her, who was still being held up by Sasuke, and kissed her on the lips.

Hinata immediately froze in her tracks, and her sudden tenseness made Sasuke and Naruto stand absolutely still as well, Naruto's lips still on hers. Both men jumped backwards as Hinata's eyes flew open, and she started panting slightly.

"Are you okay? You were having a nightmare," Naruto looked directly into her eyes, a tender and caring expression on his face.

Her eyes immediately teared up, "I was too weak. I'm still too weak."

"You're not weak Hina-chan. You're strong, you've killed two Akatsuki members by yourself… who were they by the way?" Naruto wondered aloud.

"Hidan and Kakuzu. They came after me when I was heading to rain country a while back. They never survived." Hinata explained.

Naruto smiled at her, happy with the topic change. "See? You are strong. You'r-"

"I'M SO SORRY HINATA-CHAN!" A female voice yelled as the door broke down, leaving a panting Yukie standing in the doorway, "It's all my fault, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have–"

"It's okay, Yukie-hime, I'm fine. It worked out in the end, now the man is out of your country." Hinata said with a reassuring smile.

"Yeah, but, but… I'm sorry!" Yukie grasped Hinata in a deep bone-crushing hug.

"Don't worry about it, all of us are alive, the freak is out of your beautiful country, so, if you think about it, that was a success right?" Hinata reassured as Yukie placed Hinata back down gently on the bed.

"No, I have to do something to make it up to you guys… I shouldn't have caused this mess… hmm… I know! Come with me." Yukie yelled, as if a light bulb turned on above her head.

"Umm…. Yukie-Hime…" Hinata started, staring down at her injured leg.

"Oh, don't worry; I'm sure Naruto won't mind carrying you. Especially since you're wearing those clothes," Yukie winked, making Hinata and Naruto turn a deep shade of red.

"Oh, we all know you like it." Yukie smiled, leading the way out of the room, leaving everyone else to catch up.

Naruto quickly picked Hinata up bridal style and ran after the other two, a blush still apparent on both of the teenagers' faces as they avoided looking at each other.

** DEMON COUPLE **

"We're here!" Yukie exclaimed as the trio walked into an old dojo with no sign on the outside, indicating what it was.

"What is this place?" Naruto was the first to ask, looking around the rather clean, yet old and rugged wooden room. There were wooden beams coming out of the roof, but only around the edge of the room. The walls were cracked white, and the floor was covered in wooden planks. There was one door in the far end of the room, made of the same wood as the beams and floor. Overall, the place was ancient.

"Moji-san! It's me, Yukie and you have guests!" Yukie didn't answer Naruto's question, her words echoing throughout the room.

Suddenly, an old man appeared in the center of the room, staring out at the four people (and two animals) in front of him. "What is it you wish, Yukie-hime?" The old man asked, leaning on his walking stick.

"I wish for you to teach these three. I owe them dearly, and I would wish for you to help them." Yukie bowed, her eyes never leaving the bald man.

"Are they ninja?" Moji asked, gaining a nod from Yukie, "Then yes, I shall train them. If they can beat me."

Hinata looked up, her eyes wide, "I can't fight right now, my leg is in a cast."

"Then I will not train you." He said simply.

"Hey! That's not fair! She's injured, and she got injured saving your goddamn country!" Naruto yelled angrily, glaring at the old man with Roki and Misaki growling by his side. Even Sasuke had a look of disbelief on his face.

"If she does not fight me, I will not train her. Only if she beats me will I train her." He said with finality.

Naruto continued to glare, "What if I beat you up enough for the both of us?" He growled.

"Insolence will get you no-where in life." He said, ignoring the killing intent being directed at him.

Hinata sighed gently, "Naruto-kun? Can you put me down for a moment?" she asked, looking upwards at Naruto.

Naruto hesitated, but gently put her down anyway, "You aren't fighting," He stated, just telling her that he won't take another option and will interfere if she attempts to fight him as he kissed her on the forehead.

Hinata smiled at his gentle look at her, that he cared and wasn't going to let her fight when she was injured, and she turned to Moji and bowed deeply with one hand against Misaki for balance, "Moji-san, I am Hinata and I would like for you to train me and my two teammates. I can't fight you while injured, but I promise you that training me will be worth it in the end. I will learn whatever it is that you are willing to teach, without complaint. Please, give me a chance." Hinata looked deeply into Moji's eyes, searching for a positive reaction.

He stood completely still, staring at Hinata for a moment, gauging her skill and determination. He gently nodded to himself, then looked towards the two men, "What are your names?" He asked.

"Sasuke Uchiha." That was the first time Sasuke had spoken since they had arrived they noticed as he bowed, showing respect to the elder.

"Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto said stoically, and only after an elbow from Sasuke he also bowed to the man.

"Fine. I will train you."

"Excuse me, but what are you going to teach us?" Sasuke asked curiously.

Moji just smiled, "Follow me." He said simply, leading the group through the door at the end of the room.

Everyone except Yukie and Moji's mouths opened in shock as they walked into the small room at the end of the dojo. The walls were made out of some heavy-duty metal and the room was full of weaponry.

"This is awesome! Are you teaching us some of these?" Naruto was ecstatic.

Moji glared at Naruto for a moment, "I will teach you one of these that suits your fighting style." His eyes fixed on the weapons as he spoke, "I will start with, Sasuke." He gave the boy a glance before turning back to the weapons.

Sasuke gave Moji a confused look, "How can you pick our weapons when you don't know how we fight?"

"I didn't get in an argument with you for no particular reason, that was my way of finding out how you think. You, Sasuke, are a fast fighter. You work with your speed, and you are a close-combat fighter, actually, you all are close-combat fighters. You are an Uchiha, so you have the sharingan, and this should be your weapon." He stated, pulling out a long sword with a dark-blue sheath, lined with silver and handing it to him.

Naruto, Hinata and Sasuke were amazed at how much he knew about them by a simple argument. Sasuke took the sword that was given to him and waited to see what the others would be given.

"Hinata," Moji browsed the weaponry once again, leaving Naruto bouncing up and down in anticipation, "You are obviously a Hyuuga, so you fight close combat with the jyuken style. You are thin and flexible, and you don't like to fight, you like the painless option when you fight and go for the quick and painless death." He then pulled out a pair of gloves and a waistband that held senbon in it and handed it to the girl, "These are called knuckle-sword gloves." He explained, "You can use your jyuken efficiently when wearing this and as soon as you close your knuckles into a fist, sword-blades will appear from each knuckle when you apply chakra, I will teach you how to use it further soon." He said, passing them to Hinata, who was leaning against Naruto and Misaki to keep upright as she was now on her own feet.

Hinata nodded, bowing politely as she took the gloves and senbon from Moji and he turned back to the weapon arsenal, "Uzumaki Naruto. You are a close-combat fighter, who has learned a large range of jutsu, you have excellent stamina, and a large chakra capacity. You need no help with your close combat. So the weapon I shall give you will help with long-range fighting." Moji passed Naruto a large bow and a kit of arrows that had a sling for across his back. "This can also be used as a distraction, so a teammate can get the enemy while occupied by an arrow flying at them."

Naruto smiled brightly, bowing to Moji, "Arigato."

"Now, I shall teach you."
