Chapter 8:
More Distractions...
Suddenly Kiba came bursting through the door, and he was looking really agitated.
"Man! Do you guys have any idea what kind of day I've been having?"asked Kiba as he walked in.
He stopped to see Naruto holding Hinata who was unconscious, Neji who was wearing Lee's jumpsuit, and Hinata and TenTen who were both still blushing.
"..."
"What's going oooooon..." asked Kiba while smirking at the turnout.
"If they don't want to tell you, they don't have to." said Shino, walking in behind him.
"Tch. Fine." said Kiba in disappointment.
He didn't give it any thought the first time, but he now suddenly realized that Naruto was holding Hinata.
"Hey! Get your filthy hands off of her!" demanded Kiba.
Naruto gave him a surprised look followed up by an angry one.
"You have no right to be touching Hinata, or ever being around her ever again!" continued Kiba.
"You are a disgusting, foul, pretentious, perverted freak, and..." began Kiba.
Suddenly a blur of indigo hair, and a pair of furious Lavender eyes were staring him down.
"What'd you say?" shouted Hinata angrily.
"I-b-but-what?" stammered Kiba as he stood there confused.
"IF YOU, OR ANYONE ELSE SAYS ANYTHING BAD ABOUT MY NARUTO, I WILL PERSONALLY SEE TO IT THAT THEY GET A ONE-WAY TICKET TO HELL!" screamed Hinata, almost losing her voice.
Naruto, Kiba, and everyone else stood there in shock, as the normally quiet Hyuuga girl stood up to Kiba, and anyone else dumb enough to get in her way.
Naruto looked down into his arms, and wondered how Hinata had jumped so quickly out of his hands.
"H-Hinata?" stammered Naruto feebly.
Hinata looked back to Naruto, and realized that she had screamed all of that in front of Naruto, the Hokage, her friends, and even her father.
She immediately slapped both of her hands over her mouth.
She wanted to say something, but she was so embarrassed, she didn't know what to do or say.
Everyone was just staring at her.
She blushed even more when she saw that her father stood right next to her, and was also in a state of shock.
She then turned back to Naruto and blushed as red as she could go and then some. She looked as though she was glowing from the redness of her skin.
"How... how long have you been awake?" asked Naruto.
Hinata completely froze up.
"Well, answer the nice boy's question." said Gai.
Gai pointed at Naruto who was still waiting for an answer.
Hinata made eye contact with Naruto and almost fainted, but she held herself up.
"Long enough..." muttered Hinata quietly.
She was glad that she at least got something out.
"..."
There was an awkward silence for a few seconds, and as these seconds went by, Kakashi and Sakura walked in.
"Hello everyone, I..." said Kakashi as he stopped in mid-step, holding out a hand to stop Sakura.
"What is it Kakashi sensei?" asked Sakura as she looked over his arm.
'Neji in Lee's clothes. Everyone blushing. Blatant sexual tension...' thought Sakura.
She froze for a moment, turned around, and left.
"..."
"I'll expect a full update from you Tsunade... after we take care of... whatever just happened here..." said Kakashi.
Kakashi looked over to Gai, and their eyes met.
There was a small pause, both of them trying to read the other.
"Gai... Did someone just have sex in here?" asked Kakashi.
Everyone's face turned a little more red, even Tsunade's face.
"Because that's what it seriously feels like. Either that, or someone got naked... and there was possibly a sexual innuendo involving a... blowjob?" asked Kakashi.
Gai was froze in disbelief.
"N-No! I mean, no. Don't be ridiculous! This is the Hokage's office! Nothing like that would ever happen here!" laughed Tsunade nervously.
"..."
Kakashi turned back around to follow after Sakura.
"Well alright... if you say so... We'll meet you at the gate..." said Kakashi in a suspicious manner.
Kakashi closed the door behind him when he left.
A few seconds later, the door opened a crack.
Kakashi peeked in for a moment, paused, then finally left.
"..."
After Kakashi was actually gone, Hiashi had put his head straight. He knew what he had to do.
"Tsunade, I demand that you give me that camera. The pictures on it will smudge the Hyuuga name indefinitely." said Hiashi seriously.
Tsunade only smirked in response.
"I will never give you these photos. They are too damn funny." said Tsunade, still giggling to herself slightly.
"P-Pictures?" asked Hinata.
Everyone froze when Hinata spoke.
Hinata was a person that they all didn't want to upset. She was so sweet and kind all of the time. No one wanted to be the one to tell her about the pictures.
"Tsunade took pictures..." said Lee finally.
"..."
Hinata examined Lee for a moment. Like everyone else in the room, he was blushing.
"Pictures of what?" asked Hinata.
"..."
"(Sigh) Hinata, she took pictures of us when we were unconscious..." said Naruto, blushing and looking at the floor.
"Unconscious?" asked Hinata.
She thought about it for a moment, and instantly remembered how she woke up.
Hinata blushed a brilliant red a quickly turned to Tsunade.
"You... you wouldn't show anyone those pictures... w-would you?" pleaded Hinata, as she looked on hopefully to Tsunade.
"Sorry sweety, I can't promise anything... There's no telling what I'll do after I've had a few." said Tsunade with a smirk.
Hinata's eyes widened in shock.
'Oh no! If anyone sees those pictures, I'll just die!' thought Hinata in worry.
Naruto saw the instant worry in Hinata's eyes, and it made him feel sorry and angry at the same time.
Naruto clenched his fists.
"Tsunade, if you reveal those pictures to anyone, I'll make you pay." said Naruto seriously.
He stepped up in front of Hinata, trying to defend her reputation.
Tsunade gave the boy a incredulous glare as she wondered how the boy could make a threat to the Hokage, without even flinching.
"I agree with Naruto, so make that two threats to worry about." said Neji, glancing over at Ten Ten as they both blushed.
Neji's threat would have been more intimidating, but his vision accidentally caught sight of Ten Ten's butt again, and he blatantly stared at it.
"Oh for God sake..." mumbled Hiashi, putting his hand back up to his forehead..
"If my children are perverts then what does that make me?" said Hiashi quietly.
"A pervert." said a voice.
Hiashi turned in surprise to see a complete stranger standing in the doorway.
He wore a black T-shirt, jeans, sunglasses, and a baseball cap. He had brown curly hair stuffed under his hat, and bore a Hitai-Aite on the top of his right hand. He wasn't really dressed like a Shinobi, but he could tell he was one.
Of all the things Hiashi noticed, he immediately recognized a vivid orange book in this person's hands.
"You're one to talk!" exclaimed Hiashi, pointing at the book.
"I am one to talk. I talk all of the time. You probably do too. What a strange thing to point out." said the man.
"..."
"Tsunade, the papers you requested will be left in the usual file." said the man very quickly.
"Hm? Oh, yeah yeah. Thanks." said Tsunade off-handedly.
The man nodded, and quickly left.
"...Who was that?" asked Hiashi.
"Oh just some new guy, name starts with a T or something... I can't remember." muttered Tsunade.
"..."
A silence came over everyone. It was almost like everyone forgot why they were there, or what they were just doing. Whoever that person was, he was extremely disruptive.
"..."
"So Kiba, you said that you were having the craziest day, what was that all about?" asked Lee curiously, breaking the silence.
"Oh God! You wouldn't believe it!" exclaimed Kiba as he put his hand to his head.
"First I got, like, mauled by this giant spider for like, five minutes this morning!" exclaimed Kiba.
"Then I told Perv boy off." said Kiba, glaring at Naruto.
Hinata then gave him a look that could have killed on contact.
"It was all a misunderstanding" said the Hokage as she pointed at the two.
"And I daresay, they have quite made up." added Gai while smiling.
"Or made out!" exclaimed Tsunade while giggling to herself.
Everyone ignored this, except Hinata and Naruto who were looking away from each other and blushing.
Hiashi sighed again while Kiba continued.
"Whatever. As long a Hinata is okay with it. As I was saying, I was In a bar enjoying a drink, when that spider came bounding in and jumped on my face again!" said Kiba.
"That same spider from before?" asked Shino.
"The exact same spider from before!" exclaimed Kiba.
"Then after about a half hour of getting mauled, I stumbled towards the Hokage tower to see if Tsunade could help." said Kiba.
"As I got near the building, I thought I was almost in the clear. But then out of like, no where, this guy comes flying through an upper story window, and knocks me unconscious!" exclaimed Kiba.
Hinata blushed as she recalled telling a guy to "bite me", then knocking him through a window. Then she remembered the moment she had with Naruto shortly after.
She surprised herself by stepping slightly closer to him, and as a result started to glow red.
Nobody noticed this, and Kiba continued his story.
"Anyway, after I got up again, I found that the spider had left, and that I was free to do whatever. But then I got a call to this meeting, so I started to head into the building." said Kiba.
But before I could make it inside, this stupid box appeared like, out of nowhere, and hit me in the head! said Kiba, pulling out a very familiar black box.
Everyone stood completely still and stared at the box. No one was moving at all, and they were all giving the box thier undivided attention.
"Uh... What are you all looking at..." Kiba asked as he backed up a step.
When Kiba took a step back, everyone took a step forward.
The tension was palpable.
"Hey... What's going on? This isn't funny!" exclaimed Kiba.
Suddenly everyone jumped at Kiba, and by instinct alone, he held onto the box and jumped out through the nearest window.
"Ah!" exclaimed Kiba.
Everyone looked down at Kiba through the window, to see that Kiba had used the wall to slow his decent, and had landed safely on the ground.
He quickly jumped on Akamaru, who had been patiently waiting for him.
"GO Akamaru GO!" screamed Kiba desperately.
Akamaru freaked out in response, and burned out before taking off at a quick pace.
Everyone watched Kiba and Akamaru run off into the distance through the windows of Tsunade's office.
Naruto grabbed Hinata's hand, and jumped through the same window Kiba did. Hinata blushed at this contact, but had to pay attention to other things as they plummeted to their death. On the way down Naruto threw Hinata on his back, and she clutched onto him piggy-back style as they went to land.
"Oh my God! They'll die from this height!" exclaimed Tsunade.
She scrambled to jump after them, but it was too late.
Naruto slammed into the ground, creating a crater in the ground 6 feet in diameter.
Everyone was astonished, even Hinata, who had almost passed out from the adrenaline rush of almost dying.
Before anyone could say anything, Naruto jumped out of the crater, and began running after Kiba.
"Get back here Mutt-boy!" shouted Naruto.
Even Tsunade stared at Naruto with disbelief as he ran out of sight.
"W-what incredible strength!" exclaimed Hiashi.
They watched Naruto round a corner, out of sight.
A few seconds passed with everyone standing still.
"Well what are we waiting for an invitation!" exclaimed Gai and Lee simultaneously.
They both jumped out the window and ran down the side of the tower, using chakra control to keep themselves on the wall.
Everyone else looked at each other and nodded. They all began following Gai and Lee.
They all had their reasons for catching up to Kiba now.
Neji and Ten Ten could be blackmailed or embarrassed to death.
Gai and Lee wanted to help Neji and Ten Ten.
Shino wanted to make sure Hinata and Kiba were okay.
Hiashi wanted to protect his daughter's, and his clan's reputation.
Naruto wanted to protect Hinata's reputation.
Hinata wanted the pictures burnt, or hidden in her room.
Tsunade wanted her camera and hilarious pictures back.
At the Village North Gates, Kiba ran up and skidded to a stop, knowing that he must have lost them by now.
They had traveled the length of half the village. He was fairly confident that he had lost them.
"Phew! That was a close one Akamaru!" exclaimed Kiba in relief.
He jumped off of Akamaru, and began petting him.
"Roof?" asked Akamaru incredulously.
"I don't know! They all just suddenly jumped at me!" exclaimed Kiba in defense.
"Who jumped at you?" asked Sakura.
Kiba turned around to see Kakashi and Sakura leaning against the village gates.
He didn't know whether to trust them or not, especially after everyone randomly turned on him.
Kakashi noticed Kiba's nervousness, and stood up.
"Kakashi?" asked Sakura quietly.
"Kiba. Is something wrong?" asked Kakashi suspiciously.
Kakashi took a step forward, his demeanor was serious.
Kiba cautiously took a step back in response.
"Kiba. What did you do?" asked Kakashi seriously.
Kiba didn't know what to do, but his instincts told him to run.
"KIBA!" shouted Naruto.
Kiba looked to see Naruto with Hinata in tow, running quickly in his direction.
"Oh come on!" exclaimed Kiba in exasperation.
He quickly jumped back on Akamaru, ready to run away again.
Naruto came to a stop next to Kiba, trying to make it clear that he wasn't going to attack him.
"No wait! We just want the box!" said Naruto.
Kiba almost ran again, but stopped when he heard him say something about a box.
Kiba reached into his jacket, and pulled out the small black box.
"Oh... That's all?" exclaimed Kiba.
Kiba looked at the box in his hands.
"I thought I did something wrong or... something." said Kiba as he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly.
"Yeah. That box contains blackmail against Hinata and Neji." said Naruto as he took the box from Kiba.
"Neji, I don't really care about, but Hinata?" exclaimed Kiba.
"Hinata! What did you do!" exclaimed Kiba, as he stared at her with disbelief.
Hinata blushed and dug her face into the back of Naruto's head so that she could hide her embarrassment in his hair.
Naruto blushed. She was so close, he felt her breathe down his neck. He liked it. It made shivers run down his spine, but it also made him feel comfortable and warm.
Naruto was contemplating this, but was interrupted by the sound of a familiar swarm of shinobi heading his way.
Naruto hiked Hinata farther up onto his back and received an "Eeep!" from her, before looking at Kiba.
"No time to explain further. Just tell Neji that I will be sure that this ends up in the right hands." said Naruto as he tucked the box under his arm.
Naruto had never tried the flash step with more than himself, and wasn't willing to try it now.
Naruto ran behind Akamaru, and ducked down so that he was out of sight and formed a few hand signs.
"Yokoana no jutsu."(Tunnel no jutsu) whispered Naruto as he turned his head to Hinata.
"Hold your breath for a bit okay?" said Naruto.
She nodded and held onto Naruto tightly.
He blushed at the closer contact, but kept his head in the game.
He moved his body to the ground, the dirt and soil parting for him on command. It was like he was phasing through the dirt itself. Naruto and Hinata fully disappeared into the ground, not leaving any noticeable traces.
Kiba paused, and looked at the ground where they had disappeared for a moment.
'I really hope that I can trust you Naruto... But if Hinata trusts you, then I don't really seem to have a choice.' thought Kiba.
Kiba was brought out of his thoughts by the sounds of the approaching Shinobi group.
Tsunade was the first to arrive, skidding to a halt in a cloud of dust.
She stopped right next to Kiba, and stared expectantly at him.
"Where is it?" demanded Tsunade as she held out her hand.
Everyone else skidded to a halt behind her.
Hiashi stepped up beside Tsunade.
"Yes, where is the box? Do the right thing and give it to me." said Hiashi angrily as he too held out his hand.
Kiba looked at everyone from on top of Akamaru, and decided to ignore them.
'If Hinata says that she trusts Naruto again... Then I'll have to trust his word, for now.' thought Kiba.
"Neji." said Kiba.
Neji was comforting TenTen, who was freaking out. She was scared what her parents would do if they saw those pictures.
'I had no top on! I even lost my bra! How could I have let that happen!' thought Ten Ten.
She didn't blame Neji for what he did. He ripped off her shirt because he was completely naked. It was completely justifiable at that point. And when he tripped and knocked her over, it was just an accident. Now, she was only afraid of being embarrassed, blackmailed, or shunned by her parents.
Neji looked up at Kiba angrily, thinking that he still had he box.
Before Neji could say anything, Kiba spoke up.
"I gave Naruto the box. He told me to tell you that he would make sure that it fell into the right hands." said Kiba.
Kiba jumped off of Akamaru, and walked up to Shino casually. He began to start up a conversation with him. Kiba was acting as though everyone wasn't staring at him.
'Naruto has it? Well, I doubt Naruto would be stupid enough to incriminate himself.' thought Hiashi.
Neji, Ten Ten, Gai, and Lee all gave looks of relief knowing that Naruto would keep the information safe.
Tsunade looked miffed that she would probably never see those funny pictures again, but her look suddenly changed as she whistled to get everyone's attention.
"Alright, listen up!" said Tsunade with authority.
Everyone stopped talking and gave her their attention, except for Neji who was occupied with Ten Ten's rear.
'Oh for God sake...' thought Hiashi as he looked on at his nephew.
'Keep it in your pants' thought Hiashi.
"The mission will start in 5 minutes, and we have two AWOL ninja, that need to be present." said Tsunade.
She stopped to let this sink in, and she saw faces of realization from the Jounin. They knew where this was going.
"And you need us to get them back here in that time span." confirmed Kakashi as he turned to Sakura.
"I need you to tell me where Naruto usually goes." said Kakashi as he put his hand on her shoulder.
Sakura nodded.
She revealed the usual places where he would go as everyone listened in with rapt attention, because many of them didn't know what Naruto did besides train, eat, or sleep.
"Well, Naruto doesn't go to his home unless he needs to. He likes to go to quiet places to sit and think. He goes to the base overlook point at the Hokage monument. He goes into the woods near the Hokage monument. He goes to Ichiraku's sometimes, even if he isn't hungry. He goes to my room balcony. And he goes to the Hyuuga Compound." said Sakura.
"N-Naruto goes to my home?" exclaimed Hiashi in disbelief.
"Yeah. It is the only place he could go without anyone expecting him of making out with Hinata." said Sakura as she nodded her head with her eyes closed, as though she were thinking it over.
"W-WHAT?" shouted Hiashi ..
Everyone looked at her with disbelief.
But Neji didn't even seem to notice she was talking, since he was so occupied with Ten Ten's butt.
Hiashi suddenly turned to Neji.
"Would you quit it!" screamed Hiashi at Neji.
Neji jumped as though he had been shocked by a cattle prog.
Then Hiashi looked back at Sakura and she looked back at him with a smile.
"HA! just kidding!" said Sakura.
"Nice." said Kakashi as he gave her a high-five.
Hiashi fell back onto the floor holding onto his chest.
"Oh thank the Gods..." said Hiashi as he collected himself.
Tsunade smiled at Sakura, but decided that they had better get back on track.
"So you're saying that Naruto doesn't actually hang around Hiashi's backyard on a regular basis?" asked Tsunade.
"No he does, I was just kidding about him and Hinata making out. I saw how concerned Hiashi was about Naruto being around Hinata, so I thought I'd pull a fast one." said Sakura.
Hiashi stood up and walked calmly over to her and began to examine her posture to look for any hints of lying.
"Are you telling the truth this time, or are you... how do you kids say... messing with me?" asked Hiashi while crossing his arms.
"No I'm not messing with you. he really goes there frequently." said Sakura seriously.
"I tried following him once or twice, but the Hyuuga compound is too big and well guarded. I couldn't follow him past the gates. All I know, is that he goes into the gardens in the back." said Sakura.
Hiashi nodded and thought it over.
'Why would that boy be coming to my yard so often?' thought Hiashi as he looked at the ground questioningly.
'He would have no reason unless...' thought Hiashi as he took out a scroll from his pocket.
Tsunade recognized the scroll's container, it was a container used only for the most important documents. Making such a powerful container took a lot of power. The contents of the container were no doubt extremely important.
"What are you doing?" asked Tsunade.
Hiashi bit his thumb.
"A measure I took in case the Kyuubi was ever to rear it's angry head." replied Hiashi.
He began to draw a pattern on the scroll with his blood.
At the Hot springs, men and woman alike could enjoy their own sections of the springs. The hot water of the springs was calming and relaxing. A real tension melter. That is why it remained such a popular spot for such a long time.
The hot springs were located on the upper west side of Konoha. For normal people, it was quite a trek to walk up all of the trails to get up to the springs. But for Shinobi, it was as easy as getting to any other place in Konoha.
Naruto and Hinata popped out of the ground, and Naruto began to wipe the dirt from his eyes.
Hinata shook her head to get any remaining dirt out of her hair.
Hinata got a look of her surroundings, and froze.
"Naruto, w-what are we d-doing here?" stuttered Hinata as she hugged him a bit tighter.
Naruto felt himself blush from the contact, but ignored the fuzzy feeling.
"There's a guy I know that hangs around here, and I feel that I can trust him with this box." said Naruto as he finished getting dirt from his eyes.
"Y-you won't f-find m-m-many g-guys h-here." stuttered Hinata as she poked him in the right shoulder.
"Huh? Why not?" asked Naruto as he turned to the right.
He stood shocked in place to see many many angry women in bathrobes, all giving him looks of surprise, or looks of anger.
"B-because this is the w-womens h-hot springs" stuttered Hinata again.
The women covered themselves quickly, and some closed in on him.
"Aaah!" exclaimed Naruto.
Naruto quickly sprinted for the door.
"S-Sorry! I-it was an accident!" apologized Hinata as they left.
"..."
"Was that Hinata Hyuuga?" asked one of the woman.
Naruto made it out of the woman's hot springs, and immediately turned left.
He almost literally ran into the man he was looking for.
