Oh my god oh my god oh my god I'm so sorry for being late! D: School is a tough thing to balance with fanfiction T_T
I promise I'll update at least three times a week. That's about 6k words a week, and 3 full chapters a week. :D
Here's my response to a reviewer!
"joesly25: Fugaku is a asshole"
Yes, I know. It's for the plot. Uchihas are assholes and I planned to make that clear (except Mikoto 'cause she's not pureblood Uchiha from what I know, I may be wrong)
Sasuke will be a dick. I might change the summary to "SasuSakuBashing" because I hate those two for reals.
Without further ado, here's my late third chapter!
Bold = Demon speech, Italics = Human Thought, Bold Italics = Demon Thought
Chapter Three: Hinata's kidnapping… or is it?
*Timeskip: Naruto age 7, Hinata age 7*
*Near Konoha's Gate*
A man dressed in robes walked towards Konohagakure no Sato. He had a scroll with Kumogakure's symbol emblazoned near the seal. The man walked alone, with no guards. He was an ambassador, sent by Kumo to "negotiate" a peace treaty with Konoha. However, he had a second, secret objective. The Raikage had heard from his spies in Konoha that the Hyuuga's current heiress, Hinata Hyuuga, was weak and shy. The Raikage had sent his ambassador to retrieve the weak link and bring the Byakugan to Kumo. At first, the ambassador resisted until the Raikage offered riches. Any man falls over to money.
He reached the gate. There stood the gate guards, looking at him critically.
"State your name and business." The guard stared critically at the ambassador.
"My name is Sangeki. (A.N: I make up random names via mixing names I know about. DON'T QUESTION ME)I am here on order of the Raikage, who has contacted the Hokage via messenger hawk. I am here to negotiate peace treaties with your current leader."
"Smooth words, as expected from a negotiator." the gate guards analyzed.
"We will have a team of ANBU escort you to the Hokage Mansion. No disrespect, however. It is just security measures." The gate guards flared their chakra in a secret code, and four ANBU members immediately dropped down. "Please escort this Kumo ambassador towards Hokage-sama. They are going to discuss… peace treaties."
The ANBU wordlessly nodded. They set up a formation around the ambassador, and the leading ANBU simply stated, "Follow me."
While walking, some civilians looked at the Kumo ambassador with disgust. They knew of the tension between Kumo and Konoha, and didn't trust Sangeki one bit.
*Scene Change: Hokage's Office*
Hiruzen Sarutobi is currently battling one of the toughest enemies out there. It almost always seems to deceive the Shinobi no Kami, and no jutsu he could think of could EVER defeat it.
The enemy?
Paper.
With bags under his eyes, Sarutobi was working on an endless pile of papers, and more than half called for Naruto's immediate execution for "the safety of the village". Of course, Hiruzen would not THINK of approving these, but there were SO MANY OF THEM to stamp as a "no".
His secretary knocked and walked into the office. Her name was Yuki. At an age of sixteen, she placed herself as a capable assistant of the Hokage. Elected by the Yondaime himself, Yuki could organize a pile of a few thousand papers in simply an hour, and since she's not a ninja, she can't use any kind of Bunshin. Of course, the Sandaime couldn't do everything by himself, so he kept Yuki as his personal secretary.
"Hokage-sama, you have a visitor from Kumogakure. His name is Sangeki, and claims to be an ambassador and wants to negotiate peace treaties with you." Yuki had a quiet voice, something that Hiruzen appreciated. Whenever he and Yuki were speaking of the state of the village, they both did paperwork, and it was easy to concentrate because of her natural skill and her quietness, which did not distract him.
"Hai, send him in. I've been expecting him for a while now." Sarutobi didn't' want to keep the struggle between Kumo and Konoha. He wanted it to end.
"One moment, please." She walked out, and Hiruzen patiently waited. Then, Sangeki knocked and walked into the office after approval from the Sandaime.
They exchanged greetings and shook hands. Sangeki was tall and lanky, but you could see the hardened negotiator in his eyes. Hiruzen found it easy to tell that the treaty would probably end up in Kumo's favor.
As expected, after much deliberation well through the day, the treaty was made and finalized at night.
One, Konoha and Kumo would cease to plant spies in each other's village.
Two, both would send missions to each other.
Three, the two villages would ally. This is what gave Hiruzen much fear. If they allied, anyone from Kumo could waltz in to Konoha with the proper credentials, and take a Hyuuga. However…
Four, Kumo would stop hunting for the Byakugan.
Reluctantly, Hiruzen had approved and both shook hands and signed the paper. The Hokage put his seal of approval on the scroll, and all that was necessary now was for the Raikage to put his own seal on it.
"It was nice negotiating with you, Hokage-sama. Unfortunately, I am now tired from this debate on the treaty, and I would like to stay in Konoha for the day. I will leave tomorrow morning." Sangeki smiled a little. 'The irony… we promised not to take the Byakugan but it will be ours today!'
Hiruzen's sixth sense immediately kicked in. Ambassadors usually left immediately after negotiations. 'Something's fishy about his story…'
"I approve, however you must understand that this is Konoha territory. Please respect our laws and try not to cause any problems during your stay." the Sandaime spoke seriously, with a hardened look on his face.
"Hai, Hokage-sama, I understand. Raikage-sama would not be pleased with me when we just decided on the treaty."
Sangeki took the scroll and left the office.
Immediately, Hiruzen snapped his fingers, and one ANBU dropped from the hidden spot in the ceiling.
"Inu (Dog), I want you to call in Hiashi Hyuuga for me. Something was off with that Kumo ambassador, and it's ticking me off…" Hiruzen started to sweat. He feared for the village's safety.
"Hai, Hokage-sama. I will bring him here as soon as possible." The ANBU shunshin'd out of the office.
*Scene Change: Hyuuga compound*
"Your footing is off!"
"Hold yourself up higher, your aim is off!"
These words were repeated many times during that day. The source? Hiashi Hyuuga himself, overseeing the training of his eldest daughter, Hinata.
Hinata grit her teeth, she was trying her best and yet her father was never pleased. Ever since Hanabi was born, his father had become a shadow of his former self. He never sported a smile and was always cold-hearted in his approaches to anything. This was because during childbirth, Hina Hyuuga, wife of Hiashi and mother of two, had died due to stress and heart failure.
The lesson continued until Hinata dropped, sweat caking her face and training robes.
"Starting tomorrow, we will work on your balance. You are simply stepping into the wrong places and your moves are too rigid." Hiashi had a deadly look on his face. The heiress should not be weak. She would take his title of clan head someday, and he wanted her to become stronger than him. However, she was making little progress.
"H-h-hai, Tou-san…" Hinata managed to croak out. She was extremely tired. Her muscles felt like jelly and she couldn't move.
Hiashi walked out, leaving his daughter in the dojo.
When she heard the sound of his feet becoming smaller and smaller, she started to cry. Why couldn't she be a natural at the Juuken? Why couldn't be strong?
Suddenly, she heard fast, heavy footsteps coming her way. The sliding doors slid open quickly, and she could never have been any happier than this moment.
"Hina-chan! Are you okay?!"
Of course she wasn't. She just sparred with her father for seven hours straight, with only ten minutes of break every hour. She wouldn't let her savior know, however.
"H….hai, Naruto-nii…"
The now-identified Naruto had a look of concern on his face. "Come on, hime."
Hinata blushed whenever Naruto would call her "hime". The title fit her, since the Hyuugas were almost like royalty in Konoha, and she was the heiress. She, however, never received much attention from anyone else except Naruto himself, so she felt happier when he would give her so much care.
Naruto picked up Hinata and supported her on his shoulders.
"I'll walk you to the infirmary. The medics will heal you and re-open your tenketsu." Naruto never did truly understand the Hyuuga fighting style, but he knew that it centered around sealing the opponent's chakra points. This may have explained why Hinata was so weak to move, but he wasn't sure.
They walked out of the dojo and crossed the path all the way to the medic cabin. They weren't alone, though.
Sangeki was in the bushes, watching Hinata and Naruto.
'This may be my perfect chance to get the heiress. That blond boy will most likely leave to get the heiress food, and the medics will leave to give her some alone-time. That's when I'll run in and take her to Kumo!'
As he expected, after a few minutes, Naruto ran out, closely followed by the not-so-fast medics.
Sangeki waited one minute, and then he silently made his way toward the small cabin. As expected, Hinata was sleeping, her chest rising and falling at uneven patterns since her body was still tired and recuperating.
He took her arm and injected a sleeping drug that he had gotten from the hospital over at Kumo.
Thirty seconds passed, and Hinata's breathing slowed down until it reached normal levels. Sangeki took this as a good sign, and slung the heiress over his shoulder. He walked off into the night. What he didn't know, however, was that Hinata's hair was still dripping with sweat, and it left a trail behind.
Two minutes later, Naruto came back and opened the door. "Hime, I brought you dinner! …Hina-chan?"
He saw nobody. At this point, he was scared for his "sister" beyond belief. He ran out, and looked around. Thankfully, he noticed the small puddles of some clear substance he couldn't identify, and followed it, thinking it would help him find Hinata.
An ANBU watched from the trees. He had just arrived to oversee the cabin on his own terms. However, he found Naruto leaving the premises, and a quarter mile ahead, he sensed Hinata's chakra signature moving away.
He knew it had to do with Sangeki. Quickly, he shunshin'd to the Hokage mansion.
Elsewhere…
*Scene change: Hokage's office*
Sarutobi waited patiently for Hiashi. Through his crystal ball, he witnessed Hiashi walk out of the dojo. He saw the Inu ANBU appear in front of Hiashi, and they exchanged words. Hiashi nodded, and then Inu disappeared.
A minute passed.
Two.
Three.
Finally, Yuki knocked and said a little loudly through the doors, "Hokage-sama, Hyuuga-sama is here to speak with you."
"Let him in, please."
The doors opened, and Hyuuga Hiashi stepped in. He took a seat after exchanging pleasantries with the Hokage.
"Hiashi, as you may have known, a Kumo ambassador had come today. Him and I have discussed a peace treaty, and one of the conditions was that Kumo stop going for the Byakugan. However, ambassadors usually leave the village right after the deal is set to get the treaty ratified as fast as possible. I'd like if you cou-"
He was interrupted by a loud banging on the door.
"Hokage-sama, this is urgent news!" Inu pleaded. Sarutobi could hear the desperation in Inu's voice, and told Hiashi to open the door. Once he did, however, the doors slammed open. Hiashi immediately jumped back.
"Hokage-sama, Hyuuga-sama, this is bad news..." Inu removed his mask.
"Kakashi-kun, what is wrong?" Hiruzen had a feeling he knew what it was, however Hiashi was clueless.
"It's Hinata, Hokage-sama, sh-"
"WHAT?!" Hiashi boomed. He grabbed Kakashi by the shoulders and shook him. "WHAT HAPPENED TO MY DAUGHTER?!"
Kakashi tried not to throw up from the extreme nausea Hiashi was causing him. "She was…captured…by the ambassador…and…STOP SHAKING ME!"
Hiashi stopped, a look of embarrassment on his face, However, he immediately adorned his "war face" as the main family back at the compound dubbed.
"Continue…."
"Well, Hyuuga-sama, Hokage-sama, from what I have been able to piece together, Hinata had been captured by that Sangeki man, and Naruto went to follo-"
All three of the men suddenly felt a demonic presence in the area. They could see a large spike of red chakra in the distance.
All three of them immediately shuddered.
'Why did it have to happen now?! Minato-kun, I hope you had a plan for this…'
'What's happening to Naruto-otouto to make him this angry? I haven't seen him half as mad since I took his ramen one day…'
'Holy shit, that Kumo man took my daughter and now Naruto knows? I didn't want this to happen…'
Hiashi ran out.
Kakashi put his mask on and went to follow, but Hiruzen put a hand on his shoulder. "Stop, Kakashi."
"But Hokage-sama, he-"
"No. This is a clan matter, and Naruto is a clan member. Let them settle this."
*Scene/Time change, 4 minutes ago, with Naruto*
Naruto continued to follow the trail of sweat droplets. He ran as fast as he could; he had some ninja training with Hiashi and had learned how to use chakra to move faster.
Two minutes passed and Naruto finally saw two figures in the distance. One was running quickly and the other was slung over his shoulder. Naruto saw a streak of blue hair, and…
"Hina-hime!"
The man turned around, and saw the child. He immediately knew something was wrong with this entire situation.
'How could that kid have caught up with me? He's just a boy!'
"Leave Hina-chan alone, you big bully!" Naïve little Naruto didn't understand the current situation, and only thought that the man was, as he put it, a "big bully".
Sangeki saw that the boy was inexperienced, and with what little ninja training he had, took out a kunai and aimed for Naruto's head.
His aim was off, and he hit Naruto near the heart. He severed an artery, however, and Naruto screamed in immense pain. He fell to the ground, and Sangeki stood to make sure the boy would die before leaving.
Naruto's eyes were filled with tears, and he shook, clutching the wound on his chest. He had studied a little anatomy, and knew what had just happened. The bad man had endangered Naruto's life, and his vision slowly started to become blacker and blacker.
His eyes half-lidded, he whispered three words.
"I'm… sorry… hime…"
He closed his eyes.
Sangeki knew he was close to dying and had just fallen unconscious. He put down the girl and walked over to the boy. He took out the kunai from the boy's body and prepared to strike the killing blow.
As it went down, however, something else was happening.
*Scene change: Naruto's mindscape*
Naruto stood up.
He was in an unfamiliar environment. He was ankle-deep in water, and darkness filled many of the corners of the room. He walked forward, either sub-consciously or not, he didn't know.
Then, he found it.
A huge cage, marked with the word "Fuuin" on the middle. Under it was a spiral.
That wasn't the only thing that caught his eye, however. What really did was what he found inside the cage.
The big, bad fox, as he called it when he was four.
The Kyuubi no Yoko, the Nine-Tailed Fox, the Kitsune of legend.
He screamed and fell on his rear, and scooted backwards.
The Kyuubi merely tilted her head at him, and smirked.
"Come here, young one. We have much to discuss."
"No! You're a bad fox and you're going to kill me! That's what they all say you did!" Fear was evident on Naruto's face, and he teared up in terror.
"Kit, just come here. I'll explain everything. I can't kill you through this cage, anyway."
Naruto found this to be true, and shakily got to his feet. He hesitated, but shimmied forward.
"Kit, as you know, you're about to die. Before you interrupt me, I want to say some things."
"W-what do you mean?"
"… I'm sorry."
"Wha-"
"I said I would explain. Now please let me elaborate."
The Kyuubi continued to explain Naruto's current predicament, what was happening and why. At the mention of Hinata, Naruto's eyes scrunched up in worry, and sadness was emanating from his very being. Kyuubi noticed this.
'He truly cares for the young girl, even though they aren't even related. I wonder…"
"Kit, how far are you willing to go to save the girl?"
Naruto suddenly stood tall and punched his fist out in the air.
"I would do anything! She's my precious person and I won't let anyone take her away from the village!"
Kyuubi chuckled, something Naruto was totally un-prepared for.
"Well then. I see that you're really strong mentally. You say you would help the girl?"
Naruto nodded enthusiastically. It seemed that the mention of saving Hinata had wiped any fear from his mind.
"I see… well, I can help you with that."
Naruto immediately ran up to the cage and went on his knees.
"Please, Kyuubi-sama, I'll do anything if you help m-"
Kyuubi took one of her nails and gently poked Naruto in the stomach.
"Kit, I never want you to ever say that to me again. I'm here for a reason. Now, I can help you, but I'll have to give you my chakra. Your body can only handle a little right now, so it'll only last a tiny bit, but you'll be able to save the girl." Naruto perked up immediately.
"I'm willing to do anything right now, Kyuubi! I'll save her!"
It's safe to say that Kyuubi and Naruto felt a strong bond at this point. Naruto had overcome any fear of Kyuubi and Kyuubi herself felt some kind of attraction towards Naruto. 'It must be because of his strong resemblance to that baka Yondaime…'
Naruto held out his fist again, and Kyuubi once again chuckled. She held out her fist as well, and they bumped knuckles.
"Get ready kit, this will be a great feeling for you."
She transferred some of her chakra through.
*Scene change: Real World*
Sangeki's kunai was falling, about to slice open the boy's neck, when suddenly…
*CLANK*
Something knocked away the kunai from Sangeki's hands. He looked around, shocked, until he heard something that frightened him badly.
"Y…yoU… hUrT Hina-chAn…"
Sangeki backed away from the boy. It turns out that a red chakra arm had appeared out of his stomach area and whacked away the kunai.
Naruto slowly stood, the wound on his chest stitching itself together. When the wound closed entirely, he spoke once more.
"…I… wOn't… FORGIVE YOU!"
The now-demonic boy exploded in red chakra and lunged forward. The ambassador was not prepared for this at all, and was promptly punched in the face. He flew through a tree and thudded on the tree behind it.
Naruto's chakra cloak remained, and he walked slowly towards the man. Sangeki reared back in horror, and could only watch on, until...
"Naruto! Hinata! What's going on?!"
Naruto could hear a familiar voice in the background. It brought him back to reality. He looked at the source of the voice, which appeared in the small clearing.
"...Tou-san..."
Hiashi looked at Naruto, then at Hinata, and then back at Naruto.
"Naruto, stop! It's over, the man is done for. You have to stop, or the chakra will overtake you!" Hiashi activated his byakugan, and he was surprised at what he saw. Instead of the usual demon chakra surging quickly through the host's pathways, this was flowing gently, as if in harmony with the body.
Naruto flashed golden for a second, but Hiashi was able to see what the boy looked like. Naruto's hair stood up and the whiskers on his cheeks were more prominent on his face against his golden skin. His eyes became a bright orange, and seal markings were painted in black over his body. The most noticeable trait, however, was the black circle around his stomach, shaped exactly like the seal on Kyuubi's cage (although Hiashi didn't know this).
The boy lost his chakra cloak and fell face-first into the dirt. Hiashi hurried over to both of the children and studied their condition. Hinata was sleeping soundly while Naruto was breathing hard, but was unconscious.
Hiashi activated his byakugan and searched for Sangeki. Recognizing a figure crawling away, he ran over to the ambassador. Hiashi touched Sangeki's legs and hands, effectively cutting off any movement the man could do.
"Do you realize what you've attempted? You will be tried for this in a Konoha council and you will be held responsible for the probable war between your village and ours!" the Hyuuga clan head all but whispered. He was furious.
Sangeki spit out some blood, and retorted, "It doesn't matter! If I die or am detained, it doesn't even matter! Our forces won't give up to take that worthless daughter of yours and we'll bring her to Kumo, and we'll breed her children until she falls over begging for us to stop, and we won't! Your pitiful village is screwed, and she'll be doing the screwin-"
Hiashi was getting even more angry while Sangeki was speaking, and when Hiashi heard the ambassador speak about using his daughter as a sex object, he couldn't hold it. With an angry cry, he struck the heart of the defenseless man, who drew his last breath and fell into eternal slumber.
*Timeskip: one month*
Konohagakure was the same as always. The streets were bustling and everything was normal... except at the Hyuuga compound.
Hiashi was currently speaking with his brother, Hizashi. Hiashi had received a scroll from a messenger from Kumogakure, and it read:
"We have been told that you have killed our ambassador who was attempting to sign peace with your village. We have interpreted this as an act of cold-blood towards our village. You have killed an innocent. In recompense, I, the Raikage, have decided that you must kill and hand over yourself to us. You must decide the fate of your village right now. If you do not go along, you will face my wrath! We will go to war with your village if you do not comply.
-Raikage of Kumo"
"Hiashi-sama, do not do this! There must be another way. The Hyuuga are prospering with you as head." his brother pleaded with Hiashi. Hiashi would not listen.
"Don't you realize? If I don't do this, the entire village will be in peril! There WON'T be a Hyuuga compound anymore! The village is still recuperating after all these years from the Kyuubi attack. We will fall easily!" Hiashi was firm with his decision. He had the utmost loyalty for Konoha, and would do anything to protect it.
There was a Kumogakure representative outside the doors, waiting for the Hyuuga head's decision.
"... I'm sorry, Hiashi, but I can't allow this. You are far too important to the village for this. Tell Neji I'm sorry." Hizashi smiled.
"Wha-"
Hizashi poked a pressure point on Hiashi's neck, and Hiashi fell over, unconscious.
Hizashi quickly carried his brother to his bedroom upstairs and lay him on the bed. He then went to the closet and took out Hiashi's spare robes, and switched clothing. He took a Konoha forehead protector and tied it on in order to hide the caged bird seal.
Neji entered the room from his bedroom down the hallway.
"Tou-san? What's going on?" Neji asked. "Why are you wearing Ji-sama's robes?"
"... I'm sorry, son."
Hizashi also knocked out Neji before he could react. He brought Neji back to his bedroom, and much like he did with Hiashi, lay Neji on the bed.
Hizashi went downstairs and opened the door. He straightened up like Hiashi would, and spoke with the sophisticated matter that Hiashi had.
"I'm ready to accept my fate."
The representative nodded, and both walked towards the Hokage mansion. The Hokage himself was standing outside, waiting. Once he saw the pair, he immediately widened his eyes. He saw through Hizashi's guise because of Hizashi's chakra signature being different, but Hizashi nodded slightly, and Hiruzen understood. He led the two to the execution room. On the way, they had to stop because the representative needed proof that it was the real Hiashi. At this, Hiruzen began to worry that the guise would be broken, but was relieved when it was a simple blood seal test. Once Hizashi passed it (Hizashi is Hiashi's brother, they have the same blood in them), they arrived at the execution room.
"Now you will have to lay on the futon here in the middle. I'm not one for painful killing, so I promise this will be painless and quick; you'll feel like you're falling asleep." the representative stated, shaking a little from the cold in the room. Hizashi wordlessly nodded. He lay down on the futon and stuck his arm in the brace on the side of the futon. The representative continued to clamp the brace, and took out a syringe filled with a poison. Hiruzen could only watch as the representative stuck the syringe into Hizashi's arm, to which the Hyuuga twitched a little. However, in a minute or two, Hizashi's eyes had closed, and he had stopped breathing.
Hiruzen took off the clamp from the now-dead Hizashi's arm and lay him on a prepared scroll to the side of the futon. He performed a few hand seals, and with a cloud of smoke, the body was gone, sealed into the scroll. He gave the scroll to the representative, who nodded, and walked out of the room.
The Sandaime Hokage felt helpless, but it had to be done. The plan was ingenious. Nobody would know that Hizashi had taken Hiashi's place, and the caged bird seal seals away the byakugan after death. The true smart phase was the configuration of the seal. The seal disappeared after use, so he thought that Kumo would never know if they received the actual body of Hiashi Hyuuga. Konoha may have lost a Hyuuga, but he supposed that the village was in peace.
*Scene/Time change: Kumogakure, 9 days*
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE EYES DON'T HAVE SIGNS OF BYAKUGAN?!" the Raikage raged.
"R-R-Raikage-sama, we have implanted the eyes of Hyuuga Hiashi into one of our Jounin, and they tried channeling chakra into the eyes; the eyes would not react at all..." one of the medics stammered.
"I DON'T GIVE A DAMN! FIND A WAY TO MAKE THE BYAKUGAN APPEAR NOW!" By now the medics were scared shitless and couldn't really move... but...
"MOVE IT!"
"H-h-h-h-hai, Raikage-sama!"
An hour later, the Raikage was in his office, contemplating why the Byakugan wouldn't work... until...
"Raikage-sama, we found the scroll of the peace treaty that Sangeki-san agreed to with the Sandaime Hokage. We request that you put your seal on it to make it official." one of his advisers suggested. Since the Raikage was in a stage of deep thought, he merely nodded, opened the scroll, put the seal, and closed it. His advisers assumed he had skimmed it quickly, and called for a messenger hawk. Giving it to the hawk, it flew away to give the scroll to the Daimyo for safekeeping. Then, the Raikage had a sudden thought.
'Wait a second... assuming that the Hyuuga loses the byakugan upon death, then... hold on, isn't there a seal that seals the byakugan upon death? I thought that was only for the sub-family... wait...'
The Raikage thought some more, and then...
'Didn't the Hyuuga have a brother? Wasn't he in the sub-family? Weren't they twins?!'
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!" the Raikage bellowed, enough to wake up half of Kumo. His advisers clenched their ears.
"You three! Mobilize a war force! We've been tricked, and Konoha will pay!" the Raikage commanded. The advisers, however, didn't budge.
"Raikage-sama, you put your seal on the peace treaty; you can't go to war with Konohagakure unless you want all the other nations to go against you too..."
Silence, then...
"DAMN YOU KONOHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
PHEW! I'm so sorry for the wait; I made the chapter extra extra long this time!
As always, please review! Tell me what you want to see; any burning questions? ask me in a review!
Please tell me where I can improve on my writing style.
Arigato! Ja Ne!
