"She's our teammate…why shouldn't we be close to her?" Naruto asked. Kiba merely frowned at the blonde. "Look I don't know what you two are up to, but I'm not leaving her side," he hissed while looking at Naruto.

"Tch… Why are you looking at me like that?" Naruto questioned with a smirk, "Afraid that I might take something away from you?" He grinned but it was more like a devious grin. Hinata looked at the two boys, clueless, before leaving to walk beside Sakura and Shino while Naruto and Kiba continued arguing.

"You bastard…" Kiba hissed. Sasuke himself didn't know what the two were talking about as he stood, looking at the two.

"Why would Naruto be talking to Kiba like that?" He thought as he looked at Kiba.

"Look whatever you two are talking about, can it wait for later? We need to go," Sasuke stated before looking around for Hinata, but she already walked off with Shino and Sakura.

"Where is Hinata?"

"Hinata? Great this is all your fault! Hinata is probably lost thanks to you dumb idiots!" Kiba glared at the two. Sasuke and Naruto frowned as at Kiba.

"Idiots? Listen stupid Sakura is gone too, shouldn't you be worried about her?" Sasuke asked.

"Yeah, she's your teammate," Naruto stated.

"Yeah…but it's Hinata that I worry about, not Sakura," he frowned. All the boys gave each other a death glare.

"Just to help you out; Hinata, Shino and Sakura aren't lost…While you three were talking, they left you behind and are currently ahead of you three," Kakashi stated. They looked up, startled that Kakashi was standing there they whole time.

"W-What are you…doing there Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto asked.

"I told you that I'll be watching you…" He grinned from behind his mask. "Now hurry up and catch up with them" He stated as he then disappeared.

Kiba glared at Naruto as Naruto returned it. They both looked at each other and started racing each other.

"What are you running for Naruto?" Kiba frowned.

"I could ask you the same thing," he grinned. They both raced each other towards the others. Sasuke just sighed as he watched them. "This is going to be a long week..." He sighed.

"So do you know what Kiba and Naruto were arguing about back there?" Sakura asked as she looked at Hinata. She shook her head. "I'm not sure…" She whispered. The next thing they knew Sakura was being trampled by both Naruto and Kiba.

"HA! I got here first!" Kiba grinned.

"No way! I did!"

"You idoits…better apologize…before I lose it!" Sakura stood up from the ground with footprints all over her.

They both looked at her in a frightened way. "I'm Sorry Sakura-chan…it's his fault! He pushed me!" Naruto pointed his finger at Kiba.

"WHAT! I DID NO SUCH THING BAKA!"

Sakura frowned as she hit them both across the head. "Dumb idiots..." She walked away from them angrily while Kiba and Naruto rubbed their heads.

"Um…are you o-okay?" Hinata asked.

They both looked at Hinata and grinned.

"I'm fine!" They both said in unison. Naruto glared at Kiba.

"She was talking to me," Kiba frowned.

"No, she was TALKING to me! Her teammate," the blonde hissed.

"NO, she was talking to ME!"

"…I was asking the both of you…but…" She trailed off as she blushed, due to both of their stares. "She was secretly talking to me..." Naruto mumbled. Kiba gave him one more glare before taking Hinata's hand.

"Come on, let's go Hinata." He smirked as he looked at Naruto. Naruto growled as he watched Kiba take Hinata away. But Naruto grabbed her hand, causing Hinata to blush.

"N-Naruto-kun..." She whispered in shock. As the Uchiha was walking he saw Hinata's hands being hold by both Kiba and Naruto. He glared at both boys.

"Hinata is coming with me…" Naruto stated as he pulled Hinata towards him.

"No, she's coming with me!" Kiba growled. Akamaru just watched Kiba fighting over Hinata as he let out a whimper.

"Hinata wants to come with me, not you. Why would she want to be bothered by someone as smelly as you?" Naruto smirked. Kiba growled and opened his mouth to say something, but Sasuke came and grabbed both of Hinata's hands away from the two.

"Why don't you two stop bickering over who Hinata wants to be with and let her choose. Or better, continue walking," he looked at Hinata and then turned his head.

"Let's go Hinata," he said in a stern voice and started walking, followed by a compliant Hinata. Both boys looked at Sasuke and Hinata before staring at one another.

"What just happened?" Kiba asked. Naruto shrugged his shoulders.

"Annoying dummies..." Sasuke grumbled under his breath. Hinata looked up at him. "Sasuke-Kun…um…I-"

"Sasuke-kun there you are, you got left behind, I was looking all over for you" Sakura jumped on Sasuke and rubbed her cheek on his. Hinata looked at Sakura and shook her head before walking beside Shino, leaving Sasuke alone with Sakura.

Sasuke watched Hinata with a frown. "She could have at least stayed here beside me. I helped her out when the two idiots were pulling her from left to right, the least she could do is stayed by my side," he frowned. Sakura looked at Sasuke with a smile.

"Oh, Sasuke-kun…maybe, after this, we could hang out. Just the two of us," she blushed.

"No…" Sakura looked up at Sasuke, finding him looking at Hinata, once more. Sakura frowned, stepping in front of Sasuke's view of Hinata.

"Sasuke-kun…there's something different about you." Sasuke just stared at her.

"What are you talking about?"

"You don't see it like I do…I see it in your eyes whenever you…look at her..."

"Again, I ask you what are you talking about; or rather, who?" He gave her a confused expression.

"I'm talking about Hina-"

"AHHHH!" Both Sasuke and Sakura looked up at see someone had Hinata in their arms with a kunai to her throat, with Shino in the same situation.

"If you make one move, he'll kill her." A man stood behind Shin, restricting his movements.

"Hinata…." Sasuke frowned as he looked at the person that was holding her. Kiba and Naruto finally made it towards the others. They, too, stared in shock.

"Hinata!" Naruto yelled.

"N-Naruto-kun" She whispered. The man looked at Hinata and then back at the others.

"Now-now little girl, I'd be quiet if I were you. That is, unless you want me to slice your little neck right sooner, rather than later," he grinned. Sasuke and Naruto frowned as they looked at the man.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Maiki. This is my land and people that trespass on my land don't make it out."

"Yeah, they don't make it out… Know why?" The younger boy grinned. Maiki frowned as he looked at the boy.

"They get the picture Yukki."

"Y-Yeah…I think they do, sorry boss," the kid grinned. He looked, roughly the age of thirteen with blue eyes, spiky blond hair that was not unlike Naruto's. He was mildly tall, hyper, wore clothes similar to Zabuza's. He had a fox-like grin, which made him look like someone who couldn't be trusted. He looks up to his boss, Maiki, and does anything he's told to do.

Maiki was a man in his late twenty's. He had yellow eyes, long white hair, and was very tall. A scowl was forever implanted on his face; not a patient person. His skin was pale skin, due to a sickness.

"What do you kids think you're doing out here, anyways?" Maiki asked as he looked at Sasuke.

"It's none of your business."

Maiki smirked. "What a mouth you have little boy, kids nowadays have no respect for their elders…what a shame..." he sighed. Sasuke frowned.

"Why don't you let Hinata go, you bastard," Naruto hissed. Yukki looked at Naruto and frowned as he left Shino's side to walk up towards Naruto.

Naruto looked at the older male that was in front of him and glared, "What do you want?"

Yukki punched Naruto in the face. "No one talks to boss like that, Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto's eyes widened as he looked at the boy.

"H-How do you know my name?" He stuttered. The boy smirked as he looked at him.

"You don't know, and I didn't either, until boss told me. Can't you see it?" He asked as he looked at Naruto and got really close in his face. Naruto backed away from the boy. Everyone, except for Maiki, seemed confused to what Yukki was trying to say.

"I don't get it? What are you trying to say?" Naruto asked. Yukki smiled.

"My name is Yukki Uzumaki…What does that tell you?" He grinned. Everyone's eyes widened as they looked at the boy and then Naruto.

"You mean tell me that this boy is…" Sasuke looked at the boy and then Naruto. Hinata eyes widened as she looked at the little boy.

"U-Uzumaki…? So you have the same last name as me…and?" Naruto said dumbly.

Everyone sighed. "YOU DUMB IDIOT! I'M YOUR BROTHER!" Yukki yelled. "Geez…I heard that you were pretty stupid but I didn't actually believe that you were that stupid..." Yukki sighed.

"At least this boy isn't stupid like Naruto," Sasuke sighed but then his expression turned back into a frown.

"Y-Your m-my brother?"

"Yeah…can't you tell I'm almost an identical replica of you; but taller and older…I'm your older brother," he grinned. Naruto looked at the boy in shock. Sure this boy did look a lot him, but why hadn't anyone told him of a brother?

Naruto frowned. "Wait a minute! This can't be real…Kakashi-sensei said that they'll be watching us…he's just probably trying to see how we would react in this situation…" Naruto grinned.

"This isn't real…I don't have a brother!" Yukki looked at Naruto in a confused way.

"What…this is real…I punched you and I can do it again to show you how real this is stupid!" Yukki frowned.

"No this isn't real…Kakashi-sensei told us that he was watching us to see what we'll do in certain situations," he nodded.

"Naruto, isn't fake this is very real. Why would Kakashi-sensei and Kurenai- sensei do something like this, playing with you by saying that you have a brother?" Sakura asked.

"Sakura is right, he wouldn't do something like this, that would be going too far..." Sasuke agreed with Sakura. Sakura looked at Sasuke and blushed.

Naruto looked at Yukki and then back at Maiki. "B-But…I can't have a brother…and a older brother at that…if this is true, then where is my parents? Why did they give me up and keep you!" Naruto looked at Yukki on the verge of tears.

"You have it all wrong, no one kept me. Our parents died after you were born. We were both separated," He paused glazing over at his teammates, "It appears that you have been living the good life with your friends" Yukki smirked disgustingly. "But luckily the fourth had enough money set aside for us to grow off on, plus the money you make on missions"

"The fourth…as in the Fourth Hokage?" Kiba asked. Yukki nodded his head as he looked at Maiki who still had Hinata in his arms.

"Yes, the fourth is Naruto's and my father…" He paused when he heard a few gasps come from Hinata and Sakura. Naruto himself, also, seemed shocked.

"Then why…why did he seal this thing in me?" He asked.

"He thought that you would be known as the village hero, but I guess that didn't happen..." He looked at Naruto who didn't answer him.

"Seal? What is he talking about Naruto?" Sasuke asked.

"It doesn't matter, it's none of your concern anyway..." Naruto frowned. Sasuke looked at him and frowned.

"Anyway, mother and father both died after your birth from what I was told. When I grew older I became a rouge ninja and moved to the land of snow."

"Land of Snow?" Sakura repeated.

"Yes…it's very different there compare to where you guys are from. Our village has a special 'chakra armor' which protects us from most attacks while amplifying the user's abilities, and their jutsu arsenal typically used ice in the forms of various animals. Our level of technology is way much advanced than here. We have railroads, airships, power genitors, and volley guns which fire salvos of kunai instead of bullets," Yukki explained happily.

"Wow, I never heard of such a village," Sakura whispered as Kiba nodded his head in agreement.

"Yeah…but all the snow melted in our village so we are now called the Land of Spring," he smiled. "I loved my new village…but I met boss somewhere else…I believe it's called the Land of Sound..." he smiled. Sasuke looked at the boy and then back at Naruto who still seemed quite like he really wasn't grasping on to what was happening.

"I never even got to meet them…and now they're both gone," he cried. Hinata looked at Naruto and it pained her to see him like this. She elbowed the man in the stomach as he let go of her and held his stomach. Hinata ran towards Naruto and held him in her arms.

Everyone looked at her in shock. "…Hinata…" Sasuke whispered as he looked at her. Yukki looked at the girl but said nothing.

"Naruto-kun…it's okay…I'm here for you..." She whispered to him. Naruto cried into her shirt.

"Why…why...?" He continued saying.

Yukki frowned as he looked at his brother and the girl. Naruto then looked up at Hinata and then at the boy. Yukki looked down at his younger older brother and frowned.

"Don't think I'm going to let you go just because you're my brother. I still want to fight you," he grinned. Naruto glared at the boy as he stood up.

"You want to fight me…then come on! Let's fight!" The two brothers looked at each and smirked as they both ran towards each other and started fighting.

"I-I can't believe Naruto…I mean that's Naruto's brother," Sakura said as she watched the two fight. Sasuke looked at Hinata as she watched them fight. His eyes widened when he realized that a kunai was being thrown at her by Maiki.

"You Hyuuga trash! No one hits me and gets away with it!" Maiki frowned.

Sasuke ran towards Hinata and jumped on top of her so she wouldn't get hit by the kunai.

"S-Sasuke-kun…" She looked up at him in shock.

"You're okay…right?" He asked while panting. She nodded but then she heard Sakura call his name.

"Sasuke-kun you're back!" She looked at the kunai in his back.

"It's nothing…as long as Hinata is safe this little kunai is nothing..." He reached his hand towards the kunai and pulled it out. Sakura looked at Sasuke half worried and half hurt by the words he just spoke.

"…Sasuke-kun…"

Sasuke turned around towards Maiki with his Sharingan activated only to see that Kakashi was behind Maiki with a shurikan across his throat. Kurenai was standing off, not too far away.

"I never thought that I'll see you around here, Maiki," Kakashi frowned as he looked at older man. Maiki smirked, "Nice to see you to Kakashi."

"Where is Orochimaru?" Kakashi frowned.

"I don't know where that old man is and I couldn't care less," Maiki frowned. Then he looked at Sasuke, more particularly, at his neck.

"I see... He marked that boy with that seal." At hearing this, Sasuke covered his neck. "That boy is he one of your students, Kakashi?"

"He is," he stated.

"Well…I don't know what my brother sees in a brat like him..."

Sasuke eyes widened. "You mean to tell me that this man is that guy's younger brother?" Sasuke stated at Maiki in shock.

"He probably just wants to use him for that Sharingan…why want the Sharingan when you can have the Byakugan..." He looked at Hinata, smirking. Kakashi noticed this and pressed the Shurikan closer to his neck.

"You will not go near my students…is that understood?" Maiki looked at Yukki and call out his name.

"Yukki..." Yukki stopped fighting Naruto to look at his boss.

"Yes Boss?"

"Let's go!"

"Hai…" Yukki looked at Naruto and smirked. "I'll be seeing you around Naruto-niisan!" And with that, he disappeared with the wind.

Maiki got out of Kakashi's grip on him and turned around to look at him. "I think I'll let you guys stay awhile on my lands this time…but next time…I won't hesitate to hurt you all…oh and Hyuuga..." Hinata looked at him half scared of what he might say.

"I just might come back for you..." And then he disappeared. Sasuke then fell to the ground. Sakura ran to his side.

"Sasuke-kun…" She put her arm around his shoulder in a supportive way.

Hinata looked off at Naruto, who was in shock. Shino then looked at Kiba who looked at him and then Naruto. "Man…I can't believe that kid was Naruto's little brother..." Kiba stated while Shino nodded.

"Kakashi-sensei, is Sasuke-kun going to be okay?" Sakura asked. Kakashi nodded.

"He'll be fine…he just needs some rest," he stated. Sasuke shook his head.

"I'm fine…I don't need any rest," he hissed.

"Whether you like it or not, you need you rest Sasuke," he watched as Sasuke held onto his neck in pain. "You're in pain Sasuke you don't need to act tough for everyone," Kakashi stated with a frown.

"He's right Sasuke…you should rest..." Kurenai said as she looked at him. Sasuke sighed as he soon gave in to his sensei.

They all stayed in a cabin that night. No one had talked since earlier. Naruto stayed off to himself outside while everyone side stayed inside, except for Hinata, who was by Naruto's side; Kiba and Shino just sat there quietly talking; Sakura stayed by Sasuke's side the whole time he was sleep, while Akamaru was sleep on the floor.

"N-Naruto-kun…" Hinata whispered as she looked at him.

"Hi…Hinata" He said dryly.

"Ano…N-Naruto-kun are you okay?"

"I still can't believe it…I have a little brother. My parents that I always wanted to see are gone…and my little brother is a bad guy..." He snorted as he smiled a little. Hinata looked at Naruto and remained quiet.

"N-Naruto-kun…"

Naruto looked at Hinata and smiled. "I'm sorry…that you had to see me like that today..." He smiled weakly at her. Hinata shook her head with a smile, "It's okay Naruto-kun…everyone shreds tears at some point in their life…" He looked at her and mouthed her a thank you.

"You are so kind Hinata…thanks for being by my side today," he grinned. Hinata looked at him and blushed. "Y-You're welcome, N-Naruto-kun..." she blushed.

He looked at her and really looked at her for the first time and blushed. "I never really notice before but…Hinata is really cute..." He continued looking at her with wide eyes while blushing.

Hinata didn't seem to notice that Naruto was looking at her because she was looking at the stars. "They're beautiful..." she whispered.

"Very beautiful..." Naruto said not talking about the stars. She looked at him and smiled. "I'm pretty tired I think I'm going inside now," she stood up. Naruto looked at her and nodded. "Hinata…" She stopped as she looked at him.

"H-Hai...?"

"I know your tired…but can you stay out here with me a bit longer? I just don't want to be alone right now," he said in whisper, not wanted the others to hear in from inside. Hinata turned a shade of red as she looked at him. "N-Naruto-kun wants me to stay out here with him…?" She blushed as she sat back down next to him.

"Arigatou Hinata…Arigatou..." He smiled as he looked up at the sky.

Okay I hoped that you enjoyed this chapter. When I said that this story was going to have a twist in it well I meant it. Naruto just found out that he has a brother. But Yukki is a bad guy, he is very similar to Gaara; he only loves himself and no one else, has an insatiable need to kill, but Yukki grins a lot unlike Gaara and he has a bit of a goofy side to him like his brother Naruto. Yukki won't become a good guy anytime soon but I might make him a good guy later on in the story but until now he's a bad guy. I'll have a profile that I made for Yukki and Maiki in the next chapter. Please leave reviews Arigatou.
