Chapter 2: Birthday, kidnapping, and small devil power.
Three days later.
It was December 27 in Konoha; fireworks lit up the sky. After over two years, the war with Kumo was finally over. It was a day of celebration. The
Kumo sends three ninjas as representatives to sign a peace treaty with Konoha. Everyone in the village attended the ceremony, everyone except
the Hyuga clan. On this day, Hinata Hyuga, the heiress of the Hyuga clan turned three. In the compound of the Hyuga clan, the main household and
the branch family gather in the middle of the street. The head of the Hyuga was Hiashi Hyuga; he had on a kimono with a sash on his waist. He had
his hand on Hinata head making sure that he doesn't lose her. Hinata was in a yellow kimono top with a Hyuga symbol on it and a dark kimono on
the bottom. She was holding her father kimono and grabbing her own kimono as well. They were both looking at the branch family in front of them.
Hiashi remove his hand from Hinata head so she can move head freely. The person in front of Hiashi was his twin brother Hizashi who had on a
headband on his forehead. He too was wearing a kimono. Next to him was his son Neji who was a year older than Hinata. Hizashi congratulated
Hiashi for Hinata third birthday. Hiashi thank him for the compliment. Hinata look at them with a confuse face and it turn into a scared face, because
she didn't know them. She place her other hand on her father kimono and trying to hide. But she turns her scare face into smile thinking they're not
so bad. Neji look at her and he too had a smile on his face. "She looks nice father, don't you think." said Neji whispering it to his father. Hizashi had
a disgruntled look on his face then he look down towards his son and what Neji saw was an almost sad look on his face. Neji was wondering what's
wrong and he ask his father what was the problem. He told Neji that nothing was wrong. Neji was worrying about his father and look at him for a
few moments. Hiashi told his brother that he will take Neji to train him. Hizashi agreed to it. Neji was wondering what he meant by it. The Hyuga clan
went to the main household for preparation of Neji.
An hour later
Neji had bandages around his forehead; he was in pain because of the seal mark that was put on him to make him a branch member of the Hyuga
clan. He and his father were in a Hyuga fighting clothes and were sitting down watching the sparring between Hiashi and Hinata. Hiashi was training
Hinata in the Hyuga fighting style. Hinata got off the fighting stance. Hinata got back up and on to her fighting stance. She charges at her father to
land a blow but her father easily dodges it and dodges the other attacks that Hinata was trying to do. Hizashi and Neji were watching the training
session with no trouble with utter silence Hizashi told his son about what his future will be. Neji nodded as a response knowing full well of what he
has to do. Hizashi look at his son and saw the determine look on his face. Hizashi was worry about his son. He put that aside and continue watching
session. He saw Hinata was struggling against her father and was short of breath. His emotionless turn into anger thinking it was fair that she was
heir of the Hyuga not Neji. He activated his Byakugan with much anger on his face. Hiashi sense the killer intent and saw Hizashi Byakugan active.
He dash his way to Hinata to protect her and made a ram seal with his left hand. Hizashi saw this and had a scare look on his knowing full well what
his brother was doing. Next thing he knew he was in much pain because the seal mark on his forehead. Neji turned to his father with a shock look
on his face. Hinata turn to see what was going on look on her face. Hizashi collapsed onto the floor as his headband came off showing his seal mark
glowing and his head was in much pain. Neji went to his father trying to figure out what he can do and what was going on. A moment later Hiashi
release jutsu and told Neji to take him home and Hiashi left the room. Hinata went to them to see what she can do. But Neji told her to go away.
Hinata was scared and left them. But before she can leave she turned around and saw tears coming out of Neji eyes. Later on Neji already took his
father home so he can recover from the incident. Hizashi told of what just happened and why was his seal mark glowing. Neji had a sad look on his
face. Unknown to the both them an entity was born inside of Neji. It gave out a small demonic aura, but the aura vanished instantly for now. (It
won't appear until later in the chunin exams)
Meanwhile
Naruto was heading towards the Hyuga compound for Hinata birthday, but he had no idea where it was. And there's a ceremony going on, it
became more difficult because of it. The hours went by for Naruto and the next thing he knew it was night time. "Aww man, it's night time already."
said Naruto. Naruto knew that he was late for his first invite to a birthday. But he wasn't the type to give up so he took off to find the compound.
At the Hyuga household, Hinata mother Haruka was wondering where's Naruto. She believed that with the commotion around and the ceremony he
probably got lost in the crowd. She went to Hinata room to check up on her, she slide the door open to see if she still asleep. She saw her sleeping
peacefully and closes the slide the door close and walk towards to her bedroom. She stopped walking for an instant and turns her head to towards
Hinata room 'she probably was hoping that Naruto would show up for her birthday.' thought Haruka. She turned her head back and continues
walking towards her bedroom.
Later on at night
At the Hyuga compound everything was quiet, too quiet. A mysterious mask ninja enter the main household through the roof. The unknown ninja got
inside Hinata room and grabbed her while sleep. But Hinata woke up as he put his hand on her mouth to silence her. Hinata gasped when she was
grabbed, she was struggling to break free but the mask ninja cover her mouth with a small towel filled with sedatives. The next thing Hinata knew
she was getting tired all of sudden and pass out because of the sedative. The mask ninja place her under his arm and took off without making noise.
He made his way out of the household and was trying to head towards the exit of the compound.
At the same time Naruto was inside the compound trying to go to Hinata home to give her present with a note attached to it. Just as he was about
turn the corner he saw a mask ninja running. He couldn't see his face because of the mask he had on. But what really caught his eye was that mask
ninja had Hinata in his arm. "Hinata." said Naruto. The mask ninja saw Naruto a few feet away from him. "Tssk, out of my way, brat." said mask
ninja. "You, let her go." yelled Naruto. He ran towards him and tries to punch him, but the mask ninja dodged it easily and kicked him in the stomach.
Naruto went flying backwards and landed a few feet from the mask ninja. He placed both arms on his stomach because it hurt a lot. He got up and
tried again "Tssk, what a fool." said Unknown ninja. He was going kick Naruto again, but Naruto jumped to avoid the kick and grabbed Hinata from
the mask ninja arm. The mask ninja was shocked that he avoided his attack and also manage to take her from his arm. Naruto use his body as a
cushion for him and Hinata landing. Naruto look at his arms and saw Hinata in them. He was relieved that he got Hinata from him. He got up as he
let go of Hinata and stood in front of her determined to protect her. "Humph, do you really think you would stop me." said mask ninja as he pulled
out a kunai from his pouch. Both of them were facing each other. Naruto had an angry face on showing that he's not afraid. The mask Ninja throw
his kunai at Naruto, it hit his right arm, but it only hit the rubber band that was holding his glove on. The band ripped and fell off his arm, Naruto saw
the band fell off and his glove was falling off. The mask ninja was surprised that it didn't pierced his arm "Humph, I don't know what trick you using,
but it won't stop me." said mask ninja. He pulled out a strange looking weapon that was putting off an aura that looks demonic. Naruto saw the
strange weapon, he close his eyes and prepare for the worst as the mask ninja was about to strike him and use right arm to protect himself. But his
glove fell off revealing his arm. The dagger clashed with Naruto arm giving out a wave of energy. The mask ninja saw Naruto arm and was surprised
that his dagger didn't pierce through his arm. Naruto open his eyes and saw his arm exposed and that the mask ninja dagger didn't pierce it. Naruto
saw an opportunity as he pushed his arm to make him step backwards. "What the hell are you?" asked the mask ninja. "Well, doesn't matter what
you are, I guess I have to take you as well." said mask ninja as he ran towards Naruto and was about to strike him. Naruto back step of what he
said. In his mind he was scared and want to run, but he look back seeing Hinata still laying there unconscious. 'I want to protect her; I don't care
what happens to me, I will protect her, my first real friend.' thought Naruto loudly in his mind. His arm glowed with blue energy surrounding it. And
second arm appeared hovering over his arm. He performed an upper cut at the mask ninja in front of him. He managed to make connect with him on
the chin with the second arm as he went flying and landing on his back. He let go of his dagger when he was hit by Naruto. The dagger was sent
flying over Naruto and from the looks of it, it was about to strike Hinata.
Naruto saw the dagger went over him and saw that it was about to hit Hinata. Naruto turned around and jumped to grab the dagger before it hit
Hinata. He landed next to Hinata as he saw the dagger in his right hand. He was relieved that he managed to grab in time. He saw his arm glowed
again as the energy surrounded the dagger and it was absorbed into his arm. He felt his arm has gotten stronger than before. "Whoa, that never
happen before." said Naruto as he look at his arm. He got up to find his glove, he found it next to Hinata and put it back on, and try to put it back on.
He heard a moaning coming from the mask ninja. The mask ninja got up as he rubbed his chin; it hurt like hell, thinking that brat almost broke his
jaw. He looks at Naruto cursing him of what he done. He ran at full speed and punch Naruto in the stomach thereby knocking him out.
Naruto eyes went wide as he felt his stomach was in much more pain than before. He cough out blood and passed out. He collapsed on to the floor
next to Hinata as his gift for her fell out of his pocket. The mask ninja was about to grabbed both of them. But he heard someone coming from
behind him. He turned around and saw none other than Hiashi. Hiashi saw the mask ninja and activated his Byakugan and dash his way to the mask
ninja and killed him with one blow of his attack. The mask collapsed right in front of him. Hiashi eyes went back to normal as he removed the mask
ninja mask. It was none other than the head Kumo ninja. Hiashi was shocked that the same person who signed an alliance with Konoha. Hiashi
wife: Haruka came to his side and saw the man that her husband killed. She looked at the dead body for a few more moments and look up and
Hinata as well as Naruto, Hiashi saw them as well. Both of them went to their side and check up on them. "Hinata, Naruto are you ok?" said Haruka.
But no replied from them. Haruka check on Hinata first and then Naruto. "Hmm, they're alright." said Haruka to Hiashi. Before she picks up Hinata,
she saw a small container next to Naruto. Haruka pick it up and saw a note on it, she read out loud "Happy Birthday, Hinata….From Naruto" said
Haruka, then she open the gift and saw a necklace with a lavender jewel. "Ahh, how sweet" said Haruka. She closed it and picks up Hinata princess
style. And Hiashi pick up Naruto. "We better take them inside; I settle a meeting with the Hokage and the other Hyuga members as well." said Hiashi
to Haruka. She nodded and both of them went inside the household and place Hinata and Naruto in a room so they can rest. Hiashi left them in
Haruka care as he informs the Hokage and the Hyuga council members about what happened.
Haruka was worry about her husband because he killed the head Kumo ninja to save their daughter. Haruka looked down on the two children that
are resting, she look at Hinata thinking that she nearly lost her, her first child. Then she looks at Naruto 'thank you Naruto, thank you for saving our
daughter' thought Haruka smiling at him. She turned around and headed to the door to get some water for her and bring some to them just in case
they wake up soon with a thirst.
Naruto woke up in a daze, the last thing he remembers was fighting the masked ninja and he got knock out. He sat up and looks around to see
where he is. He realized that he was in a futon. He didn't remember sleeping in a futon. He was about to get up, but he felt something on his right
arm. He turns his head to see what he had felt. He saw a hand beneath his hand. He looks up to see whose hand is it. He was shocked that it was
Hinata, the person that he was saving from the masked ninja "Hinata, are you okay?" said Naruto, but no response from Hinata. Naruto saw that
she was breathing and was relieved that she was alright.
Haruka drank some water in the kitchen 'I wonder if they're up' thought Haruka. She grabbed some cups filled them with water and carried it to the
room. Haruka was still thinking what's going to happened to her husband. She put that thought aside and went on to the room. She got to the room
with no trouble at all, she open the door and saw Naruto awake and Hinata still sleeping. "Oh, you're awake, Naruto." said Haruka. Naruto turned
his head to the door and saw Hinata mother at the door. "Uh yeah, I'm awake." said Naruto. Naruto got up from the futon and greeted her. "Umm,
where I am?" asked Naruto. "You're in our household, Naruto. My husband and I found you and Hinata unconscious and brought you inside our
home." replied Haruka. "Oh, are you thirsty, I brought some water." said Haruka as she gave Naruto a cup of water. "Oh thanks" said Naruto as he
drank it. "Ahh, that's refreshing." said Naruto with the cup in his left hand. Haruka smiled at him, "By the way Naruto, what are you doing here at the
Hyuga compound, this time at night and how come you didn't show up for Hinata birthday party?" asked Haruka. "Well…I got lost because of the
ceremony today, there were too many people blocking the way and the alleys were packed with people, so I took the long way, until I got lost
again…hehehe." said Naruto as he was rubbing the back of his head with his right hand. "Oh, that reminds me" said Naruto as he went into his
pocket to get Hinata's present, but it wasn't there. Naruto searched his other pockets to find it, but to no avail. "Where is it? - I had it right here"
said Naruto in a panic state trying to figure out where was the gift that he got for Hinata. Haruka stared at Naruto while he searched himself for
something. Then Haruka realize what he was look for. "Oh, you mean this." said Haruka as she went into her pocket and brought out a small
container and show it to Naruto. Naruto saw the container that was in her hand. "That's it." said Naruto as he grabs it from Haruka hand. "I found
lying next to you when me and my husband found you and Hinata lying on the ground unconscious." said Haruka as she relaxed her hand when
Naruto got the container from her "Oh thanks, I thought I lost it." said Naruto.
Hinata was stirring in her sleep because of the noise. She blinks a few a few times and her eyes were half open, she saw a boy with dark blue
shorts and a white t-shirt, she recognized them from somewhere, and then she saw spiky blond hair. Then it came to her that it was none other
than… "Naruto" said Hinata. Naruto and Haruka heard a familiar voice in the room. Naruto turn around and saw Hinata barely awake "Hinata your
awake." said Naruto as he went to Hinata side on his knees. Haruka was happy that Hinata was awake and went to her as well. "Hinata, how you
feel?" ask Haruka. Hinata look up to her mother "Hmm, I feel fine, just a little tired." said Hinata as she sat up. Hinata and Naruto were on the same
level of eye sight. Both of them stared at each other for a few moments with utter silence, until Haruka broke the silence between them. "Naruto her
gift" said Haruka. "Uh…Oh yeah, I almost forget…here Hinata this is for you, I hope you like it." said Naruto as he was showed Hinata his gift for her
and put it in her hands. "What is it?" ask Hinata when Naruto gave it to her. She opens the small card that was on the gift and read it out loud.
"Happy Birthday, Hinata….From Naruto" said Hinata, then she open the gift and saw a necklace with a lavender jewel. Hinata was awning the
necklace that Naruto got for her. "I-It's beautiful…Thank you" said Hinata with a smile on her face. "You're welcome, Hinata." said Naruto. Hinata had
a small blush on her cheeks, but it was barely visible and Naruto was smiling because she was happy of the gift he got for her. Haruka was smiling
as well seeing that Hinata was really happy and she was glad that Naruto was able to give his gift to her.
Hinata took out the necklace from the container and was trying to put it on. Naruto saw Hinata trying to put on the necklace and decided to help her
"Here let me help you" said Naruto as he pickup the necklace from her hands. He unhooks it and leans to get closer to put it around Hinata neck.
Hinata was blushing; he was so close to her, no one has been this close to her except her father and mother. Naruto put on the necklace with no
problem at all. After he put on the necklace, he leans back and put his arms on his legs. Naruto look at with an awe look on his face, "It looks great
on you, Hinata" said Naruto. Hinata face was red, because of what he said to her. "T-Thank you, N-Naruto." said Hinata as she put her head down
to hid the blush from him. Naruto saw that she had red face on her, he was wondering why she was red, "Umm, Hinata are you okay, you seem a
little red, do you have a fever or something?" ask Naruto as leans forward to her and puts his left hand on Hinata forehead to feel if she have a
fever or not. Hinata blush got even redder, because he was touching her.
Haruka saw Hinata blush got deeper and begin thinking that she was about faint. Hinata's body couldn't take it anymore; she was about to passed
out in front of Naruto, her first friend. She fell forward towards Naruto with her eyes close. Naruto saw her falling down forward and caught her
before anything else happened. "Hinata, are you okay, Hinata?" said Naruto looking down at Hinata in his arms. He was worrying that something
happen to her. Hinata open her eyes half way, she heard Naruto voice and it was close. She look up and saw Naruto face really close to her, her lips
were close to his lips. She remembers that her mother and father had their lips touching and ask her mother what it means. Haruka explain it to her
and and she understood what it means. Naruto and Hinata stare at each other for few moments with utter silence. Hinata broke the silence with her
trying stand on her legs. But she tripped while trying to stand up. The covers of the futon were the reason she tripped. She landed on top of Naruto
and both of them went crashing down to the floor. Hinata had her eyes close then she felt something on her lips. Naruto had his eyes when they
went crashing down. He felt something on his lips as well. Both of them open their eyes at the same time and saw each other eyes. Hinata was
shocked of what's happening 'gasp, I'm kissing Naruto and Naruto is kissing me' thought Hinata. Haruka place her right hand fingers over her mouth
as she witnessed Hinata first kiss and such a young age. And Naruto first kiss as well.
Hinata broke the kiss and got up from Naruto and she was on her knees blushing of what happened. Naruto was a little confused of what
happened. He got up and sat on his knees as well. He touched his lips and remembers of what happened. He blushed of that memory. He felt his
heart beating faster than normally. 'What this feeling' thought Naruto with his hand touching his chest where his heart is. His right arm glowed from
the kiss, the memory and the feeling he felt. But no one couldn't see it because of the glove he had on.
Both of them look at each other and blush even more than before and turn their heads so they couldn't see the blush they had. Haruka was giggling
at the expression they put on. She soon realizes it was late and Naruto had to go home, she could have let him stay for the night, but with
everything going on right now. She decided to break the silence between Naruto and Hinata "Um Naruto" said Haruka. Naruto broke out of his blush
form and look up to Hinata mother "Huh" said Naruto. "As much I don't want to ruin this, but I do believe it's time for you to go home, Hinata needs
her rest and so do you." said Haruka with a smile on her face. Naruto look at her for a moment and realize that she was right. Hinata heard what
her mother said and she knew she was right. She was sad that Naruto was about to leave. Naruto turn around towards Hinata, as Hinata turn to
face Naruto "Sorry Hinata about before and I got to get going, but I will see you again hopefully soon." said Naruto to cheer Hinata up. Hinata smile
and blush of what Naruto said. "I-I hope I get to see you again soon too, Naruto." said Hinata. Naruto smiled what Hinata said. He got up and walks
towards the door and said his good-byes to Hinata and Haruka. Haruka told Naruto that she show him the exit to the compound. Haruka told Hinata
to get some sleep and she will return soon to check up on her. Haruka then walk with Naruto to the exit. They came to the exit of the compound and
Naruto said his good-bye to her and left to the doors and head home.
Haruka saw Naruto left the compound and headed back to Hinata room to check up on her. Meanwhile Hinata was still sitting down thinking about
what happen today, it was the perfect day for her but tonight was one of the best nights of her life minus the kidnapping. She was happy that
Naruto came to her birthday even though he was late; she got an incredible gift from him as well a kiss from him even though it was an accident.
She blush from the memory that they both kiss, she touch her lips feeling that she really enjoy it and felt a great feeling in her heart. It was warm
and she never felt it before in her life. She felt her heart beating faster from the feeling. She didn't want it to go away. Hinata snapped out from the
moment as she heard someone coming.
Haruka open the door to Hinata room and saw Hinata was still awake. "Hinata, what's wrong?" said Haruka as she close the door and walk to
Hinata. "Um mother, I-I have this feeling in my heart, but I-I don't know what it is and my heart is beating faster than before." said Hinata with
hands on her chest. Haruka realized what she was talking about "That called love, Hinata" said Haruka. "Love?" said Hinata. "Yes, it's a great feeling
to have." "From the looks of it, it seems you a crush on Naruto" said Haruka giggling. Hinata look down at her chest where her heart is and blush
and smile of what her mother said to her. After a moment of silence, Haruka broke the silence "It's late, you should sleep, you had a long day
today." said Haruka. Hinata snapped out and nodded and went under her covers "good night mother" said Hinata, and drifted to sleep. She went
closer to her and gently place her hand on Hinata head "good night Hinata" said Haruka. And got up and left her to sleep peacefully. She left to her room where she waited for her husband.
(Meanwhile)
Naruto was walking towards his apartment thinking what a night it's been. He manages to save Hinata from that mask ninja, got his gift to her and
got his first kiss from Hinata. Naruto blush from he thought, but his thought was snapped out when he realize that he arrive at his apartment
building. He went up the stairs and got into his apartment without a problem. As he went to his room and got into his pajamas and got his night cap
on and took off his glove and place it right next to him. He looks at his arm remembering when he fought that mask ninja. He remember that a
second arm appear out of nowhere and when he grab the dagger before it hits Hinata and his arm glow brightly and his arm somehow absorbed it
making his arm stronger than before. He was still trying to figure out what it meant and how he did that. He couldn't figure out, because he so tired
from the events that happen. He thinks that he should ask the Hokage about it, but he figure that he wouldn't know the answer. So he decided that
he would train to harness the power of his arm and put to good use. He was lucky that he manage to defeat the mask ninja because he had the
element of surprise. He also decided that he will keep his arm a secret from everyone else, because they found out about his arm they would reject
him even more especially Hinata, but he didn't really think Hinata would reject him despite his arm. Besides when he was fighting that mask ninja, he
was really determined to protect Hinata and he felt his arm responded to his emotions and gave him power to fight for her. He lay back on his bed
and looks at his arm and raised it to the air, he turns his hand into a fist showing his determination and an image of Hinata appeared in his mind. He
smiled from that image and laid his arm down to his sides and decided to get some sleep. Because tomorrow he would be training hard and probably
send some time with Hinata at the flower garden they first met and in the playground.
