Ultimate Mission: Battle Royale for Hinata's Heart!
Chapter 2: Tsunade's Proposal
A/N: Naruto doesn't belong to me…..
But IF it did Hinata would so be better than Sakura. (This is my own opinion but Sakura is so annoying, useless, whiny, and an ass… I could go on but this isn't a Sakura bashing fic. Lol). I'm gonna have to incorporate people other than Hinata and the guys. Maybe I'll add some Itachi and the other girls (sakura, Ino, Tenten, Temari…). I really need to plan…

Naruto looked around at his fellow teammates and grinned. After all, this mission must be really important if the Hokage called the original rookie 9 together again.
While scanning the room, Naruto noticed a familiar face. Pale skin, Sea foam green eyes, messy red hair, and of course no eyebrows.
"Gaara-kun! What are you doing here!" Naruto bellowed right next to Sasuke's ear.
"Thanks to you, now I'm deaf!" Sasuke hissed.
Narto pouted but lowered his voice and asked again.
"I'm wondering the same thing." Gaara mumbled. "This better be important and not some dating game" (A/N: too bad Gaara, IT IS. I'm so evil)
Tsunade entered the room and slammed the door behinds her
"Alright kids! You might me wondering why I called you here." Tsunade began slyly. "This is to be the greatest mission you'll ever be assigned to. In fact this mission ranks far beyond A" The Hokage declared dramatically.
Glancing around the room as she commenced her speech, Tsunade noticed the determination in everyone's eyes. Most tried to keep it hidden, while others' eyes sparkled at the notion of a challenging mission.
Naruto grew eager and hung on to every bit of the Hokage's words.
"Come on Tsunade-baa chan!" Naruto whined "Tell us already!"
"This will be like another Chuunin examination" Tsunade started. She glanced over at Naruto and Sasuke, who had serious faces. To them this new mission was no joke, they were still only Genin. "The catch is that, you will not become a chuunin afterward— ."
"WHAT!" Sasuke and Naruto shouted in unison.
Shino's eyebrows could be seen from above his jacket.
Gaara wasn't surprised. (A/N: he guessed it right in the beginning)
Shikamaru sighed and muttered "Troublesome women" under his breath.
Chouji looked at his best friend and sighed as well.
Kiba growled and so did Akamaru.
Neji was …Neji
Rock Lee was just happy.
"Wait" Shikamaru paused, "This doesn't matter to us… some of us already are chuunin"
"Hold ON!" The Hokage yelled slamming her fist on the Hokage's desk. The vibration of her outburst had resonated out of the tower. "Let me finish…You will not be competing for the title of chuunin but for Hyuuga Hinata's hand in marriage" The hokage finished.
She looked around hoping she didn't let them down too much.
Finally the Uchiha spoke up and asked the question everyone was wondering.
Hyuuga Hiashi wanted a promising future for his daughter and he wasn't going to take no for an answer. She had become powerful beyond his realization and had hopes she would stay the heiress. Hiashi also insisted on dragging the Uchiha into this as well. The prospect of an Uchiha-Hyuuga clan had been great.
"All of you have amazing bloodline limits and prestigious clans. Also most of you have promising futures. Hiashi wants the best for her daughter" Tsunade declared.
"Why am I here?" Neji asked.
"Hiashi also allows marriages within the family. It used to be a tradition."
Everyone had a thoughtful look on their faces. Hyuuga Hinata was certainly not ugly.
"Each of you will be spending time with her on an informal date. Take her wherever it won't matter, just stay inside Konoha walls. You may choose what to do."
Tsunade felt proud no one was objecting.
"At the end we will have a tournament like the Chuunin exams that will decide your abilities."
"I like a challenge how about you, Naruto?" Sasuke
"Yeah me too" Naruto said huskily
Tsunade eyed the rivals warily "We'll be picking the first date of my hokage hat, so get ready." Tsunade shuffled around her office looking for her hat.
"Ah! Here it is!" Tsunade dusted the dust and cobwebs off hat and pulled out a slip of paper. "Shizune! Get ready to take notes."
(A/N: I actually did pull the names out of a hat =]
Gaara
Gaara's eyes widened for just a moment but other than that, he was unfazed.
Neji
Neji was uncomfortable with dating her cousin, but he did harbor feelings for the kind Hyuuga ever since he was five.
Shikamaru
"How Troublesome"
Shino
Shino did not know what to do. Hinata was his teammate and friend
Sasuke
It bothered him that he wasn't first but this was his only chance.
Naruto
"I get a date with Hinata-chan!" Sasuke sent a death glare his way. If looks could kill Naruto would be dead 27 times over. Naruto paled a little—no a lot at Sasuke's glare of killer intent.
7. Lee
"Yosh! I'm burning with youth at the mention of Hinata's name." Neji and Sasuke glared at him, but Lee was too busy burning with "youth" literally.
Kiba
Kiba had kept his feelings about Hinata hidden, she was his teammate and it was obvious that she liked Naruto.
Chouji
It was disappointing to Chouji to be picked last, but he knew Hinata was nice and only complied with his position.
"Ok Gaara, you're first so start whenever you want" Tsunade said.
Hinata burst into the office. Instead of her training attire which consisted if her lavender jacket and blue capris, she wore traditional Hyuuga clothes, kind of like Neji's but with a skirt. Her long indigo locks were tied into a loose ponytail.
"Ano, Tsunade-sama! Sumimasen. I'm late." Hinata had lost her stutter and gained more presence in the room.
Hinata looked around and realized the boys were staring at her. Sadly, Hinata hadn't lost her faint.
"Thump." All the boys in the room moved to catch her. Unfortunately, Gaara's sand had beaten them. He took her bridal style and started to walk out of the room.
"Hey! Where are you going with her?" Kiba yelled.
"On my date" Gaara said simply.
"You can't do that." Naruto shouted.
"'Start whenever', remember" Gaara stalked off.

This is the part when I ask the reader to step in and suggest how the date with Hinata and Gaara should go. Thanks next chapter up on the next ten or twenty (if you can do that) reviews. I know I'm a review whore. It's ok though.
Happy reading and REVIEWING!!!! (this was a slightly longer chappie)
