The Kunochi and the Demon

A/N Here's more of the story but I hope people enjoy.

Twelve years had passed in Konoha and Hinata sighed.

Today was the final class before graduation but she was nervous because she was afraid of the graduation exam tomorrow but Kurenai knew she would do great.

But as she approached the Academy, she saw Naruto on the swing that Gaara was normally on but wondered where he was but nobody had told her that he wasn't allowed to graduate with the others because the other Jonin thought it would be too dangerous for him to be an ninja because of the demon inside him but it made her sad and angry for her only friend.

"Hinata it'll be okay.

I'm sure Gaara doesn't mind." Naruto told her.

She nodded shyly as he ran off.

"Probably to cause mischief in the village as normal." she thought.

She was the only one who knew that Naruto had the Nine Tailed Fox inside him because if anybody knew, they would be killed on order of the Third Hokage but she knew how it felt to be alone and treated differently but sighed sadly as she went inside but then she along with the others saw Jonin running somewhere.

"What's wrong?" Iruka asked them.

"A demon is attacking!" one of them said.

Iruka was nervous but saw it wasn't the Shakaku but another demon that looked like a dragon.

It had black scales, dark eyes and twelve tails.

Gaara was in awe but then felt his head ache as he heard the Shakaku beg to be let loose.

But he ignored it but saw somebody being charged on by it but gasped seeing it was Hinata.

But after a bright flash of light, the demon was gone but Hinata was lying on the ground.

"No!" Gaara yelled as Iruka came over to her but felt a pulse.

"She's alive.

But...... she might have became a vessel for the demon." he said as Gaara was stunned.

Hinata woke up but found herself walking down a tunnel but heard growling as she came towards the sound but gasped as light flooded the room.

But she gasped seeing the demon inside of her but she was nervous.

"W-Who're you?" Hinata asked him.

He laughed at her.

"My name is Tori the Twelve Tailed Dragon of Power.

You were the little fool who wanted to protect the village and all she cared about by becoming my vessel.

Big mistake, one that'll ruin your life!" he said laughing as Hinata shivered in fright.

But she heard other voices calling to her.

"Hinata.......

Wake up......." they were saying as bright light surrounded her.........

Hinata's lavender eyes opened slowly seeing Kurenai and Iruka there in the infirmary but they looked worried but understood why as she remembered what had happened but was afraid but saw a smile on Kurenai's face as she was happy that Hinata was alive but scared for her foster daughter because the Twelve Tailed Dragon of Power was sealed in her but still cared about her even though the village woulsd see her differntly like Naruto and Gaara but knew that they would help her but there was sadness in Gaara's eyes as he remembered what had nearly happened but Hinata wiped away his tears as they were sitting on a rooftop later that night.

"This is my fault you're a demon.2 he said sadly.

"Mo Gaara it's not.

You shouldn't blame yourself.

If I hadn't became it's vessel, it would've destroyed the village and those I care about especially you." she told him.

He blushed at that but looked at her forehead where her seal was which was a flame but he sighed remembering what Iruka had told him about returning to Suna soon but he didn't want to go but hoped Hinata would understand.......
