Chapter 5: Adjusting and Training

* Three Days Later *

Naruto was standing in the Hokage's office with Hinata, Masuyo, Noriko and Reina who were wearing Anbu style masks. Naruto looked at the Hokage seeing him looking at a piece of paper. Naruto saw the Hokage look up at Hinata then heard him say " Hinata I'm truly sorry for what happened." Naruto saw Hinata nod then heard " I'll head to the Hyuuga compound." Naruto looked at the Hokage to see him sigh then heard " Haishi is actually here to take you himself. Naruto grew angry as he heard the Office door open so he looked behind him at Haishi and glared. Naruto saw Haishi walk up then grab Hinata's arm and heard " Let's go." Naruto saw Hinata just nod and start to walk slowly for Haishi to pull and make Hinata yell. Naruto grew angry and said " Don't hurt her." Naruto saw Haishi glare and heard " You stay out of Hyuga business. Naruto just continued to glare to see Haishi pull again to hear Hinata say " You're hurting me." Naruto just walked up grabbing the arm Haishi had a hold on and pulled it out of his grip.

Naruto saw Haishi grow angry and heard him yell " You stay out of this fucking business." Naruto just stood in front of Hinata and said " You're hurting her." Naruto saw Haishi grow angry and clench his fist then heard " I can do what the hell I want to her." Naruto just continues to stand to hear " If you don't move I'll kill you." Naruto smirked as he disappeared using the Body Flicker to get behind Haishi then pin him to the ground twisting his arm. Naruto looked at Hayashi's face whose bloodline was activated to hear him yell " Get off me you demon." Naruto just leaned in close and said " If you hurt…" Naruto was interrupted by Haishi yelling at him to get off him so he twisted his arm to make him stop then said " If she has a red mark on her that doesn't belong and you don't let her get her items the main house won't exist anymore." Naruto saw Haishi glare at him and heard " Your threat means nothing." Naruto twisted the arm more and said loudly " You fucking touch her Haishi I don't care who you fucking are. I'll kill the main the branch beside your only daughter then I'll take her to the Raikage and give her to him for fucking peace treaty for Konoha." Naruto saw Haishi's eyes widened then heard " Just get off me you fucking monster." Naruto tightened his grip on Haishi's wrist and said " Do we have a fucking understanding?" Naruto saw Haishi just nod so he stood up seeing Haishi stand up to hear " I'll have you killed for this." Naruto just sighed to hear Hiruzen say " Haishi I'll let Naruto hold up to that threat and you threatened him that he took action so you can't do shit." Naruto saw Haishi just glare then heard " Let's go Hinata." Naruto saw Haishi walk off Hinata following so he sighed sadly and watched.

After seeing the door closed he looked back at the Hokage and said " I put everything in that report you have." Naruto saw the Hokage nod to then hear " What are these three?" Naruto looked back at Reina, Masuyo and Noriko then said looking back at the Hokage " These three are those spies I kept getting information from about criminal activity." Naruto saw the Hokage nod so he said " They were compromised and they want to live in Konoha." Naruto saw the Hokage nod then heard " Can I get names then." Naruto nodded as he stepped to the side to see the three women walk up and take off their mask then heard them say their names. Naruto saw the Hokage nod then heard " No last names?" Naruto saw the three nods so then he saw the Hokage nod setting the sticky note to the side that he wrote on and then heard " I can set the three of you up. I have the perfect place." Naruto nodded to see the two women step back but Noriko stayed there. Naruto saw Noriko smile then heard " Hokage-sama the three of us are from a group of Shinobi that still use ways before chakra. This group consists of many people and my father was part of an old clan which was the Archer Clan." Naruto saw Hiruzen nod then heard Noriko say " I'm not asking to remake the clan but I would like to carry on its teachings and I was hoping if you could help me do that." Naruto saw Hriuzen nod then heard " Actually I do, I'm redoing the Academy curriculum and if you could give us some information it would be helpful." Naruto smiled then he said " Also how is Iruka?" Naruto saw Hiruzen just smile then heard " Doing good and helping a lot with the new curriculum." Naruto just smiled when he heard " Iruka." Naruto looked at Noriko and said " I'll introduce you to him but he's family to me." Naruto saw Noriko nod so he looked at the Hokage to hear " I'll have my Anbu get you when I have the home in shape in the meantime please get yourself knowing the village." Naruto just smiled and turned to the door about to leave when he stopped hearing Masuyo say " Get me when she continues her training." Naruto nodded again and left heading home.


* Few Hours Later *

Iruka was walking through the village heading to Ichiraku for lunch. Iruka was smiling happy that the academy students were going to finally be truly taught. Iruka continued to walk, not paying attention when he pumped into someone. Iruka stopped turning and said " Sorry, I wasn't paying attention." Iruka looked at a young and beautiful woman with brown and lime green hair. Iruka smiled to hear " It's ok?" Iruka just nodded to hear " I didn't catch your name." Iruka looked at the woman, a small blush forming, then said " I'm Iruka, Iruka Umino." Iruka saw the woman's eyes widened then heard " Iruka like the Naruto family Iruka?" Iruka just nodded confused and said " How do you know Naruto?" Iruka saw the woman smile and heard " I used to help him." Iruka nodded, then said " Let me guess he helped you during one of his ghost missions." Iruka saw the woman and then heard " It's a story." Iruka just smiled seeing how beautiful she is then said " Could you tell me about some lunch. I was about to get some." Iruka saw the woman nod so he said " I also didn't catch your name." Iruka saw the woman smile and heard " Noriko and just that." Iruka nodded with a small smile then gestured to walk forward which Noriko followed.


* Few More Hours *

Naruto was sitting in his apartment reading over a scroll when he felt his stomach rumble so he mumbled " Fine I'll go get something to eat." Naruto stood only having a black tank top and pants on. Naruto slipped on his sandals and walked to his door grabbing his money and keys. As Naruto got to the door and opened it to hear sobbing. Naruto looked down for his eyes to go wide to see Hinata there with a bag. Naruto crouched and said, putting a hand on Hinata's shoulder, " How long have you been out here?" Naruto saw Hinata look up with tears down her cheeks then heard through her sobbing " Ten minutes." Naruto's eyes widened, then he grabbed her back and said, " Can you stand?" Naruto saw Hinata try and fail to hear her say sobbing " I can't stand, I can't be strong what the hell is wrong with me." Naruto just swooped up Hinata carrying her bridal style and walked into his apartment. Naruto walked over to his couch and sat her down then her bag next to her and said crouching " Are you hungry."

Naruto saw Hinata nod as she held her head so he stood up a clone appearing that then disappeared. Naruto watches as Hinata sits up whipping her tears then hears " Sorry-y for-r being-g weak-k." Naruto just shook his head sitting next to her and said putting a hand behind her back " Hinata you're not being weak. Being weak is two things, one physical and second is emotion which are cold heartless pieces of shit but you are full of emotions and you are strong." Naruto saw Hinata smile so he said rubbing her back " It's ok to cry." Naruto saw Hinata nod more tears falling then heard through more sobbing " What did I do wrong." Naruto hugged Hinata and brought her head against his chest then he said quietly " You did nothing Hinata."

* Thirty Minutes Later *

Naruto still had Hinata's head against his chest getting more hungry. Naruto just looked at Hinata to hear her say, though sobbing, " What did I do?" Narutoj ust gave a small smile and said " Hinata you did nothing." Naruto just stroked Hinata's hair to hear a female voice yell " Hinata." Naruto looked to see Kurenai burst into his house with his clone that had food. Naruto just gave a small smile to hear his clone say " Sorry boss." Naruto just smiled and said " It's fine." Naruto saw his clone set the food down as Hinata moved her head. Naruto watched Hinata sit up, whipping her tears. Naruto saw Kurenai walk up to Hinata then heard " Let's go." Naruto saw Hinata lookup and heard " I don't want to." Naruto saw Kurenai give a small smile then heard " Hinata let's just go." Naruto saw Hinata shake her head and he also saw Kurneai get angry so he said " Just leave her with me. I'll make sure she'll be at your apartment tomorrow." Naruto saw Kurenai look at him then heard her say loudly " You be quiet, if you didn't take her away she could have fought it. But you had to help. I shouldn't have agreed to anything, and this could have been avoided." Naruto sighed to hear Hinata yell " It's not Naruto's fault." Naruto looked at Hinata who was standing to hear her yell " It's not his fault I would have been banished anyway. He knows what it's like to be unwanted and to be treated like crap." Naruto saw Kurenai glare at Hinata to hear " Then whose fault is it?" Naruto saw Hinata take a step about to speak for her legs to shake so he moved catching her before she fell then he helped her sit on his couch to hear Hinata say " I'm not leaving tonight." Naruto just sighed to look at Kurenai who nodded so he said " She'll be fine." Naruto saw Kurenai nod and then heard " Ok, you know where I live." Naruto saw Kurenai walk out so he looked at Hinata and then at the food to hear " I'm not hungry." Naruot just opened the bag and took out Hinata's food and handed it to Hinata and said " Trust me, eating always helps." Naruto saw Hinata nod and take it so he smiled and ate himself.

* Two Days Later *

Naruto was watching Hinata sparring with Kurenai in her normal outfit but also bandages around her forehead. Naruto looked to his side at the Hokage and Enma, his summoning monkey with also Masuyo watching a weapon case in hand. Naruto smiled to then realize her outfit had changed, no longer having the japanese belt but he just continued to smile and then look forward to hearing Enma say " That's enough." Naruto saw Kurenai nod then Hinata looked over for her eyes to go wide seeing the Hokage and Enma. Naruto just smiles while waking up with Hiruzen and Enma to hear " Hokage-sama and the Great Monkey King." Naruto just nodded to hear Enma say " You can call me Enma kid." Naruto saw Hinata nod to look at her so he smiled and said " I wanted to get you a gift but couldn't think of anything until I thought of the Hokage." Naruto saw Hinata nod in confusion to hear Enma say " He had the idea for you to sign the Monkey summoning contract." Naruto saw Hinata's eyes go wide then heard " And?" Naruto saw Enma nod then heard " You need a lot of work Hinata and you are worse than Hiruzen was."

Naruto saw Hinata look down to hear Enma say " But it's impressive for what you learned in a month and Hiruzen is getting old and I would like to pass on the contract." Naruto saw Hinata look up to hear " I am willing to let you sign the monkey contract." Naruto saw Hinata's eyes widened then he saw her jump at him hugging him to hear " Thank you." Naruto smiled, hugging back a small blush forming but he said " I'll do anything for someone I care for." Naruto saw Hinata pull back and they just stared at each other in the eyes to hear a loud fake cough. Naruto moved looking at the Hokage and Enma to see him holding a scroll so he pulled out a kunai and handed it to Hinata and watched her sign the contract."

Naruto smiled to see Hinata pull back after signing so he looked at the Hokage to hear " I'm going to have to inform the council when a clan summoning contract has a signature outside the clan but the exams are just five days away so I'll wait until then." Naruto just continued to smile to hear "Thank you Hokage-sama and Enma for letting me sign the monkey contract." Naruto saw them both nod then heard Enma say " I got to return to my home but it's a pleasure." Naruto saw Enma poof into smoke so he looked at the Hokage to hear " Naruto can teach you the summoning jutsu and I need to return to work." Naruto saw the Hokage turn around and start to walk so he looked at Hinata forgetting about Masuyo until he heard " Hinata."

Naruto looked at Mayuso who was looking at Kurenai so he said " Kurenai I have a plan and I want it to be a complete surprise to you and everyone so can you leave." Naruto saw Kurenai just nod so he watched her leave to then look at Mayuso who set the case down. Naruto saw Mayuso open to her " You know about Rei but what you don't know is that she was my younger sister." Naruto saw Mayuso pull out Rei staff and heard " She was the nicest person alive but she was nervous and timid." Naruto saw Hinata nod for then to hear Mayuso say " You remind me so much of her and when you gave me the staff grabbing it I knew you were exactly like her. Naruto saw Mayuso stand up and hold out the staff and heard " I would like no one else to carry her weapon then you." Naruto saw Hinata smile and take it then he heard " Your sister and one hell of a tast in color." Naruto just chuckled as did Mayuso so he looked at her and said " I wasn't lying to Kurenai to leave so we can work." Naruto saw Mayuso nod with a small smile then heard " Well have fun." Naruto smiled as he was Mayuso walk off so he looked at Hinata with a bigger smile and said " Now to piss off Neji and the Hyuga clan."
