Chapter 6 – The truth
The next morning Sasuke escorted Hinata home from the hospital. Hiashi was at the dining table with Hanabi when they arrived.
"Hinata… how are you feeling?" Hinata smiled at her father. "I'm fine Otōsan. Really."
"Good. Good morning Uchiha-san; thank you for escorting Hinata home."
"Good Morning Hiashi-sama. It was no problem at all." Hinata and Hanabi giggled at the formalities they use. The men at the table turned to look at the giggling pair and Hinata and Hanabi could not contain their laughter anymore when they saw how 'stoic' their faces looked.
(A/N try to imagine any anime character trying to stay calm while containing their nervousness (Sasuke) or suspiciousness (Hiashi)).
Hinata and Hanabi calmed themselves as they began to eat breakfast. Hinata began to think about what happened yesterday and wondered what happened to Naruto.
"Otōsan… what happened to Naruto after… after he attacked me." Hiashi looked at his daughter and sighed. He explained to Hinata the reason why he did it and told her that he did not know what punishment they had given him. Hinata and Sasuke frowned at the explanation. Hinata turned to Sasuke and she confirmed her doubts. As they were about to excuse themselves and head for the Hokage tower a messenger bird flew in. Sasuke caught the bird and read the message out loud. It stated the punishment that Naruto was given the message was from Shizune.
Hiashi was furious at the punishment that Naruto was given or lack there off. The three of them headed to the Hokage tower to discuss it with Tsunade.
~X~
The council headed to Tsunade's office early in the morning to give her their answer. As they headed to her office they spotted Hinata, Sasuke and Hiashi waiting outside her office as well. Homura was the first to greet them. "Good morning Hiashi-san what brings you here so early in the morning?" Hiashi greeted him back and explained the situation while they waited for Tsunade to come down.
The council was surprised that Tsunade would break the rules this much to protect the boy. Soon enough Tsunade walked in and opened her door and let them in. "Is there a reason why there are so many people at my door this early in the morning?
"We have a problem with the reason that Naruto gave you for attacking me and the punishment that you had given him."
Tsunade looked confused at them. "What are you talking about? I left the Hokage tower after Gaara left to look for Naruto. He was upset that we were going through with choosing your idea." Tsunade stated. Everyone looked baffled at her statement.
"Where did you go and what time did you return home?!" Koharu asked. Tsunade began to worry that something went horribly wrong. "I took a walk around the village and stopped by the pond the Jiraiya liked to sit by, I only returned at 10." Everyone was shocked. "Can someone tell me what's going on!?" Sasuke gave her a rundown of what happened and when he was done the Hokage was furious. She took her desk and through it out the window.
"Find him NOW! and Kakashi!" Hinata and Sasuke went into ANBU mode. They changed their clothes and set out to find them. The first place they went is to Naruto's apartment. When they arrived the apartment was destroyed and Kakashi was unconscious in the middle of the destruction.
Hinata rushed to his side and checked his vitals. He was alive but barely. Sasuke summoned one of his hawks to find Naruto from the air. Sasuke left her to find Naruto while she kept Kakashi alive as they headed to the hospital.
Sasuke's hawk spotted a trail and he dashed off to find it. Hinata on the other hand was trying to get Kakashi to wake up. The sliver haired jounin slipped in and out of consciousness. When Hinata arrived at the hospital, Tsunade was waiting for her. Tsunade, Hinata and Shizune immediately started to work on him, healing every injury he had. Kakashi stayed awake long enough to say. "Naruto… has turned…" Hinata looked up to the Hokage. "Sasuke…" and with in a second she was gone. Even though she was low on chakra she needed to warn Sasuke at all costs. She will not lose him too.
~X~
Sasuke sped after Naruto. Pushing more chakra to his feet he finally caught up with him. "Naruto! Stop! God damn it… Naruto!" Naruto stopped and few meters away from him. When he turned around his eyes were blood-red and had slits in the middle of them. Naruto let out a feral growl at Sasuke.
Shit, shit, shit this is not good. Sasuke thought as he looked at him. Before he got a chance to do anything Hinata appeared beside him. Naruto laid eyes on her and he roared.
"YOU BITCH!" Naruto rushed to attack her. Sasuke and Hinata jumped out-of-the-way as the ground broke beneath them. "If you didn't butt in I would have been name Hokage by now but no matter I'll take this village by force! They WILL PAY for what they have done to me over the years!"
"Naruto! Stop this… it isn't YOU!" Hinata cried out to him as she dogged another one of his attacks. "Sasuke I don't have much chakra left after healing Kakashi."
"I got this go and get back up. We are going to need it." Sasuke jump in front of Naruto long enough to distract him from Hinata. Sasuke summond his Sunano and Naruto entered Kyubi mode and they both attacked each other. Their fight destroyed huge acres of land. Trees were either broken into pieces like twigs or turned into piles of ash. The ground shattered like broke glass and the air was thick. You could feel the power radiate of the two of them. It was death match.
~X~
As Hinata raced back to the village she could feel and hear each attack. It made her to force herself faster to head to the village. She took out a soldier pill and popped it in her mouth. She felt the chakra boost and pushed every ounce into her legs. The hospital came into view and she spotted Tsunade in one of the room windows. She raced to it and jumped into the window. "We need Yamato now!" Tsunade ordered her ANBU to find him.
"We also need back up lots of it. The Kyubi's chakra changed him. The new seal did not stop the yang chakra from changing him." Tsunade punched a hole in the wall out of frustration.
"Tch. We need to get Naruto stable enough so he can fight it. Assemble all teams. Hinata once Yamato gets here both of you will head out first back up will be sent as soon as possible." Hinata nodded and took another soldier pill. She silently thanked Shikamaru for giving her them. When Yamato arrive they took off together toward the burning forest.
~X~
Sasuke was trying not to hurt Naruto too badly but if he went too soft he could get hurt instead. Naruto on the other hand was fighting an internal battle. He was fighting over control from his demonic self. On the outside Naruto still raged on attacking continuously. Sasuke could not get to attack him but could only defend himself.
Finally there was a break in Naruto's attack and Sasuke took advantage of it. Sasuke performed his Gōryūka no Jutsu. The fire dragon rose into the air and clouds began to form. It formed faster than the fight with Itachi since the air around them was hot already. Sasuke went through the hand seals. Naruto rushed towards him but it was too late, Sasuke was done; the huge lighting dragon rushed from the sky and struck Naruto. The lighting jutsu Kirin was successful. Naruto dropped to his knees and Kyubi mode deactivated. Naruto panted heavily and tried to stand back up. He started to heal already. Sasuke was getting ready to attack him again but wooden posts shot up from the ground.
Sasuke turned to see Hinata and Yamato enter the clearing. Hinata ran to the nearest post and started pouring chakra into it to strengthen the seal. Naruto was fighting back and it was getting harder to hold him in to complete the seal. Soon the others arrived and Sakura and Ino took another two posts. Choji and Shikamaru were physically restraining him. While the others set up a barrier.
"Shit we need more chakra!" Sakura screamed. Kiba and Shino stood by Sakura and Ino and started to give them their chakra. Gaara arrived in time to give Hinata his chakra and helped Yamato seal him. Naruto was still pushing against them but was not as strong as before. They were almost done and Naruto had passed out. When they completed sealing him Gaara checked the seal for the Kyubi. He confirmed it was done and they headed back to the village.
Inside Naruto the Demonic Naruto was trapped with Yamato's seal. Naruto took upon himself to deliver the finishing blow.
~X~
It turns out that Demonic Naruto took over and made clones of Tsunade and Kakashi. At the Hokage tower it was Naruto's clones that were Kakashi and Tsunade. When the real Kakashi went to check up on him the next morning he saw what Naruto had become and tried to stop him. That's when he tried to escape the village.
At the end of the day everyone was glad that Naruto was safe and no was seriously injured. Hinata could not walk properly after the fight because of the amount of chakra she used in her legs. Sasuke didn't mind carrying her on his back even when she refused him. The two of them were given strict orders to rest for the rest of the day and they welcomed the break.
They spent the rest of the relaxing with the rest of their friends at the hyüga compound. It was like an informal party. The only person that didn't join them till later on, was Sakura who wanted to make sure that Kakashi and Naruto were resting before she left.
The girls got together and chatted about anything and everything. It had been so long that they all got together just to talk and catch up with one another. Everyone had been so busy trying to rebuild after the war that they got sucked in to their work.
The boys just chilled and watched the girls talk while talking and drinking sake except for Lee. All hell will break loose if he did. It was a nice way to end of the day after what had happened but in the back of everyone's mind they worried about Naruto. Hoping he'll be ok.
~X~
Tsunade and Shizune were going over Naruto chat when Homura and Koharu walked in. "Is he going to be alright Tsunade?"
"Yes, he'll be fine we have an exceptional group of ninjas and they did a great job in bring him back to us." Shizune smiled warmly at the sleeping Naruto reminiscing on how hyperactive he was when he was young.
"We have chosen Hyüga Hinata as the council's choice Tsunade. It's up you now." Koharu said and they walked out. Shizune turned to Tsunade and she lost in thought.
"Tsunade-sama… are you ok?" Tsunade nodded and smiled wearily at her. "We almost lost him today… even after the war he still draws in trouble." They both smiled at their troublesome hero. Just like his father…
