(A/N) It's that time again, the time for a new chapter! It's a beautiful day out and I'm typing out on my deck, so I'm in a good mood. You guys keep sending me great reviews and I love them, so keep it up.

Before I get started with the chapter, let me respond to a few of the reviews:

Ash 76020: "Update soon." That's all you said. I will take that as an "I love your story and cannot wait to see what happens next so please update your story as soon as possible." If I translated those two words correctly, then I'm very happy with your review.

NeoHummel: I'm very glad that someone knew of the reference I made there. His face at that moment was hilarious, so I thought I would through it into my story for any One Piece fans out there.

Oniix: This story may seem familiar because as most people probably do, I influenced it with various elements of Hanyou stories that I have read before. I will admit that I took the idea of making Naruto and Hinata turn older when they become Hanyou from a fanfic that I read. I can't remember the name of it off the top of my head but if I come across it again I will tell everybody its name.

Flashohol: I'm glad that you think that the premise is good. I for one absolutely love Hanyou Naruhina stories. As for the forced aging, I did it so that I wouldn't have to deal with the Akatsuki yet, while at the same time have Naruto and Hinata at an age where a more physical romance is acceptable. I also love the other jinchuriki, and I plan on having Naruto and Hinata meet them at a later point. From what I understand, the Akatsuki had captured at least Fu by time part II began, and she is my favorite of the jinchuriki along with Yugito. I understand that forcing their ages means no younger life character development, but it also means that I have full access to their 18 year old selves' character development.

As for all of you that have been asking for longer chapters, please understand that I like to type through an entire chapter in one sitting without breaks, and if I did make a 10,000 word chapter, I would be sitting and typing on my laptop for like 5 hours straight. Typing does take a while you know, and I am still getting used to it, as this is my first fanfic.

And again I've been rambling for too long, so on with the chapter.

Chapter 5: Namikaze Compound and Council part 1

As Naruto and Hinata entered the main compound, the first thing they noticed was the huge amount of dust. The second thing that they noticed was a small table with a scroll on it in the middle of the room. Naruto walked over to the table and picked up the scroll, blew off the dust and carefully unrolled it. He then read aloud to Hinata:

Naruto,

If you are reading this then that means that we are dead and that you have been notified of your lineage and inheritance. While we are sorry that we couldn't be there for you, I hope you can understand why we couldn't be there and why you were not told of your lineage from the start. We do however want you to know that we loved you and will always love you even if we aren't there physically.

When you do decide to take up the Namikaze family name, I hope you will do so proudly. If and when you do decide to marry someone, we want to make sure that you choose someone who brings out the best in both of you. And for whatever reason if that person is Kushina's best friend Hitomi Hyuuga's daughter, bring up clan act 31.b if you are ever forced to defend her in a council meeting. If you bring that up and she agrees, you both will be untouchable by both the Hyuugas and those idiots on the civilian council. I understand that they will probably try even still, especially that prick Hiashi, but I know all of the laws of Konoha by heart, and there are no loopholes to 31.b. I hope that you eventually do decide to continue the Namikaze bloodline, and I also understand that the civilian council will probably try to enact the Clan Restoration Act upon you. You may choose that you want multiple wives or you may not. The council will probably try to force you into choosing multiple wives but in reality they have no choice in the matter as it is up to the clan head of the endangered clan to choose whether to follow the act or not. Since you are my only son, and I am probably dead, that automatically makes you the clan head and gives you a seat on the clan council.

Anyways, enough of the boring clan stuff, we have left you the entirety of our jutsu library for you to view at your pleasure, and the Namikaze family fortune is sealed within the vault under the compound, along with a few "special" things.

I hope that you will enjoy living at your new home and wish you luck in your life.

With love,

Minato Namikaze

Kushina Uzumaki

P.S. I understand that it has probably been a long time since anybody has entered the compound and that it is probably quite dusty. I have taken the liberty of sealing in a small dust cleaning jutsu within this scroll that will activate whenever this scroll is closed. So you can keep this scroll as a portable dust cleaner.

After he finished reading the scroll, Naruto rolled it up and there was a bright flash of light. When the flash died down, there was not a speck of dust in sight within the entire compound.

"And that's a "small" dust cleaning jutsu?" asked Naruto aloud in amazement, "I think that a big one would clean the dust out of the entirety of Konoha."

Hinata was thoughtful for a moment and then said "That jutsu sort of looked like a space-time jutsu. In other words I think that the dust was transported somewhere, not just poofed out of existence."

"Hmm...I guess your right Hina-chan. But where would my dad transport that much dust to?"

(Meanwhile at the Hyuuga compound, Hiashi's study)

Hiashi had just left his study to go to a clan meeting about the fact that Hinata still wasn't home, when out of the corner of his eye he saw a flash of light from under the door. Curious he opened the door and was greeted with a wall of thirteen year old dust that quickly tried to escape through the open door. He slammed the door shut to prevent the rush of dust and called to a branch member that was walking by.

"Get a maid or thirty to clean my study while I am at the meeting. It had better be clean by time I'm done with my meeting."

"Hai, Hiashi-sama. If I may ask, why does your study need to be cleaned? It was just cleaned yesterday, sir."

"You will see when you clean it. Now I have a meeting to attend to and I will not hesitate to say that it was you who held me here if I am late. So do you have any more stupid questions?"

"No sir…"

"Good"

With that said Hiashi walked off to the clan meeting, thinking "When I find out who did this there will be hell to pay."

(Back at the Namikaze compound)

"That's a good question Ruto-kun, but the dust is not our problem anymore, so don't worry about it." Said Hinata sweetly.

"If you say so Hina-chan. Now let's go and explore our new home. But first let's dispel our henge. We can be ourselves in here."

Naruto and Hinata dispelled their henge and then started to wander through the estate. Since they were in the main compound they started with the master bedroom. They then checked out the master bathroom which was connected to the bedroom. Naruto was overjoyed at the size of the bath and that he would now get to shower with consistently hot water. Hinata was thinking devious thoughts of how she could make it look like an accident while walking in on a bathing Naruto. After exiting the bathroom into the main bedroom again, they encountered the clones that Hinata had sent to retrieve her belongings. They had stopped by Naruto's apartment as well and grabbed the things that they deemed necessary for Naruto to survive (so no instant ramen) as well as her precious items. The stop at Naruto's was unplanned so one of the clones had made three more clones to help (A/N: a clone cloning? Its cloneception!) The originals helped the clones put away the stuff before the clones dispelled. Naruto and Hinata then left and continued their walk. They stopped by the well-stocked dojo before Hinata said that she was getting tired. It was 2 A.M. at that point. Just then Naruto received the memories of the clone he had sent out earlier.

"Apparently, the council meeting has been scheduled for ten o'clock tomorrow morning. I see that you are tired Hina-chan, and I'm pretty tired too, so let's head back to the bedroom and get some rest. We can explore the rest of this place tomorrow."

"M-kay Ruto-kun." Responded Hinata tiredly with a large yawn following.

They headed back to the master bedroom, and Hinata kicked off her shoes and flopped onto the bed. In an instant she was asleep. Naruto just chuckled at his mate's actions and took his time to wash up a little before removing his clothes down to his boxers. Walking up to the bed, he noticed that Hinata was completely sprawled out on top of the bed. He gently lifted up Hinata before using his tails to pull back the covers and placed her on the bed. He then laid next to her before pulling the covers back over them. He muttered "Sweet dreams, my vixen" before drifting into the land of sleep.

(The next day, 8:00 A.M.)

Hinata woke up to find that while they were sleeping, their tails had intertwined with each other, and that she wouldn't be able to get up without Naruto's help with untangling their tails. Hinata then kissed Naruto gently on the lips and whispered "Ruto-kun wake up. It seems we have a slight problem."

Naruto, who had been awakened by Hinata's kiss, rubbed his eyes and said "I could get used to waking up like that. What's the problem Hina-chan?"

Hinata giggled and said "Well Ruto-kun, it seems that our tails don't want either of us to leave the bed and get ready this morning."

"Can't we just stay in bed then? I haven't had that good of a sleep in well, ever."

"Sorry Ruto-kun, but we have to crash the council today, remember?"

Grumbling a little, Naruto said "Fine, fine. Let's get ourselves untangled and washed up, then we can go visit the kitchen and see if there is anything to eat."

With a little bit of difficulty and a little blushing, Naruto and Hinata were able to untangle their tails. Hinata nearly got a nosebleed upon seeing Naruto in his boxers, before leaving to shower. She tried, albeit unsuccessfully, to keep the dirty thoughts of Naruto in his boxers out of her head while she showered. Naruto walked off into one of the guest rooms and used the shower in there. Hinata meanwhile was quite glad that she was in a shower because she got quite the nosebleed when she used her Byakugan to check on Naruto and saw him showering. She stared for a while before snapping to her senses and finishing her shower.

Naruto finished his shower and headed back to the master bedroom, before knocking on the bathroom door and asking "Hina-chan are you done in there?"

"Sure, come in Ruto-kun" was her response.

Naruto opened the door and was treated to the site of Hinata wrapped in only a towel. Naruto noticed this and froze like a deer in headlights.

Finally finding his voice he said "Ummm...Hina-chan? I thought you said that you were done?"

Giggling, Hinata said "What's the matter Ruto-kun? Do you not like what you see?"

"N-no! It's not that! It's just-"

"I'm wearing enough for when it's just you around," Hinata then dropped her voice to a low, sultry tone and continued, "In fact, no clothes at all is enough clothes with just you around."

Naruto froze again and slipped into a trance that wasn't broken until Hinata had gotten the rest of her clothes on and said "Come on Ruto-kun, let's see what is in the kitchen."

"Uh…right…" was his response as Hinata dragged him towards the kitchen.

They found that the kitchen had several labeled pantries with a variety of choices. Curious, Hinata opened the one that said "strawberries" and found that the pantry was empty except for a small sealing matrix on the bottom. Even more curious now, Hinata injected some of her chakra into the seal, and to her pleasant surprise, a completely fresh strawberry poofed into existence with a small cloud of smoke.

Taking a bite out of the strawberry, Hinata said "This is amazing Ruto-kun! This strawberry must be at least thirteen years old and yet it tastes completely fresh!" She then eyed several pantry's labels and set to work. Within 15 minutes she had made a batch of piping hot cinnamon rolls and a huge bowl of homemade ramen and set them out on the table for them to eat.

"Now Ruto-kun, you have to understand that today is special and that I will not make you ramen for breakfast very often. Do you understand?" said Hinata as she poured them both a bowl of ramen.

"Aww…but Hina-chan, ramen is a gift from the gods, just like the kawarimi was a gift from the sacred log." Complained Naruto.

"If you say so Ruto-kun, but I won't give you your ramen until we come to an understanding." She said, holding Naruto's bowl away from him.

"Okay, fine you win Hina-chan." Replied Naruto in defeat.

"Good boy, here you go."

She gave the bowl to Naruto who then sucked it down in record time. And then another. And then another.

"Hinata, I have to honestly say that your homemade ramen rivals Ichiraku's and your cinnamon buns could quickly become one of my new favorite foods."

"I'm flattered that you would think that my ramen is as good as theirs Ruto-kun, but I did spend years getting the recipe just right so that you would like it. I am also glad that you like my cinnamon buns, since they are my favorite food and I will make them quite often."

They spent the rest of their meal chatting about various ideas for pranks. They then cleaned up their dishes and checked the time. It was 9:45 so they headed out to the gate, henged into their thirteen year old selves, and then put on a kitsune illusion that rendered themselves invisible before heading out to the hokage tower.

(A/N: If I were evil, I would end this chapter right here, but I said I would get to the council in the last chapter, so the story goes on. And hey, you people wanted longer chapters right?)

(Hokage tower, council meeting room, 10:00 A.M.)

The council meeting room was a large room with a long, circular table in the middle of it. (A/N: Think the gokage summit meeting table, but a lot bigger) Currently sitting at the table on one side were the clan heads of the Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi, Aburame, Inuzuka, and Hyuuga clans. On the other side of the table were the members of the civilian council along with the hokage's councilors and Danzo. Sitting in between the two sides was the hokage.

The Hokage cleared his throat to silence the quiet muttering of the civilian council and said "So what is the reason that you have called a council meeting this time?"

A councilor spoke up and said "Well, Hokage-sama, it has come to our attention that the dem-" he was silenced by the look Hiruzen gave him "-err…Uzumaki boy and the Hyuuga heiress were seen entering the Namikaze clan compound last night. We would like to know why they were seen doing so."

Upon hearing of his daughter Hiashi perked up and said "Yes, I would very much like to know why my daughter was seen last night with that boy. Especially since she never came home from the academy yesterday."

The silence and tension that followed was intense. The hokage opened his mouth to speak when a cute giggle rang through the air. Instantly, the shinobi side was on alert, with kunai at the ready. Hiashi had his Byakugan activated and scanned the room. He didn't see anything.

"There's no one there." Stated Hiashi.

Suddenly another giggle rang out and a feminine voice was heard "Poor Hiashi, he thinks that his weak Byakugan would be able to see us."

A male voice then said "Don't you think that you should treat him with a little more respect, after all he is your fa—MMMPPPHHH"

The center of the room shimmered and revealed a thirteen year old Hinata passionately kissing Naruto. Hiashi was outraged. The civilian side was in chaos. The shinobi side just looked confused. The Hokage was calm but had a grin on his face.

And that's a wrap. Sorry guys, but I spent waaaaaaaay longer on the events in the Namikaze compound than I thought I would. But I liked those events and I think I put a nice amount of Naruhina fluff in it. Overall, I'm satisfied. If I had included the events of the council that I want to have happen, I would probably double this chapter's 3000 word count. I just can't type for that long strait and I would rather get something up for you guys to read than have nothing. Even still, this chapter holds the record for word count so far, so as you can see, my chapters are steadily getting longer.

So until next time.
