A/N Hello fellow FF Members and Visitors alike! The is 9tailsfox2 with Chapter 4 to the plot hole filled fic that is All's Fair in Love and War! Seriously, the son hasn't been addressed since chapter 1! Don't worry, he's NOT mentioned in this chap either. Ah well, people still like it so I'm still writing it. Oh! The reason for my lack of writing! Alas! Runecrack (My name for Runescape) has once again sunk it's needle directly into my brain. For weeks this chapter has been sitting on my laptop untouched, until I finally decided to crack down and write the last half in one go! Alright, let's get this chapter started!

"Now Hinata-Chan, Nabi-Chan, what did your father mean by being controlled?"

Hanabi looked down at her feet, wondering on how to get through this situation. To not get sealed nor be the Clan Head, she would have to have sex. She was not ready for that. Hanabi knew what sex was and was educated about it and even had 'the talk' with her father. To gain her freedom she would have to forgo her innocence. "It means that the one who does not become an heiress gets the cursed seal of the Hyuuga Clan. She would be a slave to the Hyuuga Clan."

Naruto grumbled. "Doesn't your father hate me?"

Hanabi nodded. "He does. Without the trained eye, he looked like he was calm about the whole thing, but what I saw the look in his eye he looked like he wanted to kill you, but he knew this option was our only chance of freedom."

Naruto looked at the two Hyuuga sisters. He knew he had to get intimate with one of them, but he also knew he wasn't ready and neither were they. Stupid fucking politics! I don't think there is a way out of this without some drastic change. In both outcomes, one of the two will become head. However, the other will either end up a slave or be forced to lose their innocence when she wouldn't be ready to. Then the one he winds up with, he would have to devote his life to as his lover. That wouldn't be so bad if he hadn't started getting to know the two just yesterday. Who knows how they would feel about each other in 20 years. Would he be a bad father?

Naruto was pulled out of attention when he heard some fingers snapping. "Hey! Baka! Get out of your dream world! We have a problem!"

Hinata slightly frowned. "Hey, don't call him that."

Naruto smiled a bit. "It's alright Hinata-Chan. Nabi-Chan's right, we do have a problem and there is probably no way to get out of this without any of our lives changing drastically."

Naruto looked at Hanabi, still wearing his smile. "Well, when we get back to my apartment, what are we going to do until Nabi-Chan's date with me?"

Hanabi immediately wrapped both of her arms around Naruto's arm, put it around her and leaned her body onto Naruto's. "Stay with me." Even if I'm not ready, I'll do it anyway. Besides I'll be with Ruto-Kun and I won't be a slave. Who said that we would have to have sex soon after we do it the first time? We would be able to do it when we are actually ready… I'm… scared that he won't choose me.

Hinata threw herself onto Naruto as well. "Stay with me as well." Of course he's going to stay with us, what is she thinking in saying that?

Naruto looked at the two. "Well, where else am I going to stay for the day?" When Hinata-Chan said those words it was in retaliation to what Nabi-Chan said, but she meant that she wanted me to be around for the day. For Nabi-Chan though… I think she meant something else perhaps that was a way to one up Hinata on her getting me to choose her? I'll ask her tonight… "I was asking what we should do."

Hinata weakly smiled. "How about we play some board games? I think?"

Hanabi frowned. "No, I'm not bored yet. I know! We could play hide and seek!"

Naruto laughed. "With your Byakugan!? Yeah right! You'd win every time!"

Hanabi stuck her tongue out with a smirk. "I guess you aren't as stupid as I thought…" I think I might have a plan to get him to pick me… Or at least put it into my favor. "Alright, how about we play tag? Rule number one, no tag backs!"

Naruto thought about it then smiled. "Rule number two, no Byakugan."

Hanabi nodded then looked at Hinata the touched her shoulder. "Tag, you're it!"

Naruto immediately hopped away, leaving behind a confused Hinata. Did they decide to play tag without my say? Well if Naruto wants to play, then I guess I should play as well…

Hinata looked around and saw Naruto running away. With a smirk she began her chase.

Naruto was running at a good pace but when he looked behind him he saw Hinata gaining on him fast. Whoa! She's fast! Naruto put on a burst of speed and soon he was running his fastest, but yet, Hinata was still catching up. Dang it! She's going to tag me!

Good thing Naruto thought of the brilliant idea to do a back flip over Hinata just as she approached, unfortunately, Hinata caught on and he felt a tap on his shoulder just as he landed.

Hinata smiled. "You're it!"

Naruto crossed his arms and began looking around as Hinata began running away. Ugh! Where did she go? Nabi-Chan could be anywhere right now… It was by chance that he spotted something moving in the corner of his eye. He quietly snuck to the corner and looked around and saw Hanabi moving quickly but quietly down the street. Naruto smirked as he dashed towards his target. Unfortunately, Hanabi turned around and saw him coming. Hanabi immediately bolted and Naruto was after her.

The chase was close the entire five minutes they were running. Naruto was just out of range to gat Hanabi the entire time. Damn, can she run! Naruto was suddenly snapped out of his thoughts when he suddenly bumped into Hanabi and they became a falling entangled ball of limbs.

Hanabi groaned as she pushed herself up so she was sitting, but couldn't stand from being too exhausted. So she decided to use her arms as support. "Sorry, I tripped."

Naruto was breathing real heavy when he answered, "It's alright…" He too tried to get up but couldn't because he felt something on top of him. He shielded his eye and saw that Hanabi was straddling his waist with her hands right next to his head and her face was just so close to his.

The two immediately locked eyes as an awkward silence fell between the two.

Hanabi smiled on the inside. I got him now!

Naruto on the other hand was thinking very different thoughts. I could feel her breath…

The first to break it was Naruto. "Uuuuhhhh Nabi-Chan…"

Hanabi, red-faced, quickly got up. "S-Sorry…"

"So, this is why you wanted to play hide-and-go-seek!"

The two turned towards the source of the disturbance and saw an angry Hinata marching towards them. This would be the second time they saw her like this. Even docile people can get angry as well…

Hanabi raised an eyebrow confused. "What are you talking about?"

Hinata angrily grit her teeth. "You were using this game as an opportunity to get some favor!"

Both Naruto and Hanabi laughed at this idea. "What are you talking about? Nabi-Chan just tripped and we just happened to land like that."

Hinata shook her head. "Tripped over what!?"

Naruto looked around and saw there was nothing that Hanabi could have tripped on. "Her feet."

Hinata laughed. "Hanabi would never make the mistake of tripping over her feet just after five minutes of jogging."

Naruto eyebrow raised in confusion. "Jogging? We were running at full speed."

Hanabi threw a side glance at her elder sister. I'm so going to get you ruining this!

Hinata scoffed at the idea. "Yeah, maybe you were, if you weren't using chakra."

Naruto scratched the back of his head. "Ok so Hanabi is as fast as me with chakra."

Hinata angrily stomped her feet. "No! She was jogging with chakra! If she wasn't using chakra to run, you would've already tagged her! If she was chakra sprinting, then she would've left you in the dust. "Don't you see the purpose of the first rule she came up with. She tagged me first. She wanted you to chase her and she tripped on purpose so you two would end in a position like that!"

Naruto was about to say something about that then stopped his self. It does make sense though… "Nabi-Chan, is this true?"

Hanabi hung her head in defeat. "Yeah, it's true…"

Naruto nodded. "It wouldn't have gained you any favor in my choice anyways."

Hanabi wore a dumbfounded look. "Huh!?"

Hinata began pressing her fingers together, nervous of what Naruto will say. "What do you mean?"

Naruto scratched the back of his. I don't want to tell them how I'm going to choose yet… I don't want Nab-Chan to act. "Well at first it was how I felt about the both of you, which one I liked more basically. But ever since that meeting this morning, it became something different…"

Hanabi jumped onto that immediately. "Something different?"

Naruto laughed. "I'm not going to tell you what will help me choose! Just know answering my questions truthfully would only help you for the future."

Hanabi gave up and instead focused on another topic, "So, now what are we going to do?"

Naruto scratched the back of his head then shrugged. "I don't know, perhaps some TV?"

Hinata nodded in acceptance. "Sure, whatever you say Naruto-Kun."

Hanabi on the other hand shrugged her shoulders. "I'm fine with it, nothing better to do…"

So in the end the three of them made their way back to Naruto's apartment to watch TV to wait for Naruto and Hanabi's date. What Naruto didn't know was that the two girls were not paying attention to the TV; instead they were simply snuggling against him, content that his arms were around them, shooting glares at each other. "Damn! Did you two see that!? He threw a shuriken from a mile away and still hit the target dead center!"

Hinata smiled at the entertained Naruto. "Wow! That was awesome Ruto-Kun!"

Hinata frowned. "A mile away? I don't think that's possible. A target would probably be either invisible or just a do on the horizon. And to even throw something a mile, you would probably need a lot of chakra to throw that far… and a lot of strength… Movies like these are only to entertain those low-class commoners who know nothing of what ninjas could do."

Naruto frowned at this statement. Commoners? That's right I still haven't observed how she interacts with strangers. I have a feeling that she might have social issues. "Well, that may very well be the case, but it's still entertaining to watch."

Hanabi simply shrugged as she looked up at the clock. "It seems to be a matter of opinion… Well look at the time. I think it's time for us to get ready."

Naruto smiled as he got up. "So, how do you want me to dress up?"

Hanabi glared at Naruto warningly. "Not in that outfit!" That testing of his will not fly by with me! "Dress up in something real nice. We aren't going if it you don't look nice."

Naruto nodded and smiled. "Alright Nabi-Chan, whatever you say." Good, she has the good sense to get me to dress up. She is not afraid to say no to me and say what is on her mind. Perhaps not exactly…"

As Hanabi passed by Naruto she whispered so only he could hear. "Don't even try to test me like you did Nee-Chan."

Naruto smirked as Hanabi entered his room to begin changing while he decided to take the bathroom. Scratch that, she's not afraid to say what is exactly on her mind.

The two looked upon the building they were about to enter. Naruto, with his neatly combed back blond hair, wore a black suit, pants, a whit undershirt with a black tie all complete with black dress shoes. "Wow, nice place you chose."

Hanabi on the other hand had on a midnight blue spaghetti string dress that hung to about halfway down to her thighs. She needed not make up for she knew she looked good without it. When Naruto asked why she did not do her hair differently, she responded with the fact that strand of hair always kept hanging in front of her face. She blushed when he said that she looked beautiful with her hair like that. "Thanks. Let's get inside, the wait is probably long." Perhaps I should have aimed for 5:00 instead… ah well, more time with Ruto-Kun.

Naruto frowned. "Perhaps we should have come earlier?"

Hanabi shrugged with an air of indifference. "Too late now."

The two proceeded inside only to find the place not as full as they thought. "Well, perhaps we were worrying over nothing?"

Hanabi simply walked up to the seater, the only clue that she even heard him was the "Perhaps," that escaped her lips.

The seater bowed and smiled. "Hello, Hyuuga-San, welcome to the Flying Fish, table for one?"

Hanabi's eyes furrowed. "Listen here commoner! You saw me walk in with another person, but chose to ignore that fact. So, that makes it a table for two, not one."

The woman sweated. "So that is with you?"

Hanabi growled under her breath. "Of course he is! What? Got a problem with that commoner!?"

The woman shifted her eyes to Naruto, who simply waved and smiled. "A-Alright, but only because of your pardon for this de- I-I mean… for Uzumaki. P-Please follow me."

Naruto frowned when they started going to their table. Did she act like that because she was defending me, or is that how she usually acts around others?

The two were seated at a table as the woman bowed. "You're waitress will be right with you."

Naruto smiled and nodded with his response. "Thank you."

The woman was caught off guard with Naruto's manners. "Y-You're we-welcome?"

The woman left the table confused at the so called 'demon's' behavior. Hanabi sighed as she took the menu and began flipping through the pages. "Ummm let's see, for drinks… how about milk… As for my food… Ummmm... Sushi, without any Mitsuba. Yeah, milk and Sushi without Mitsuba."

Naruto raised an eyebrow. "It sounds like you don't like Mitsuba."

Hanabi nodded. "I never liked Mitsuba."

Naruto nodded and looked at his menu. "Meh, I'll just get a coke and some salmon, Nabi-Chan, want to share an appetizer of fish sticks?"

Hanabi shrugged. "I might have some."

A waitress walked up to the table with a smile and bowed. "Hi, welcome to Furaingufisshu. My name is Mitsuki and I am going to be your waitress this evening. Can I get you anything?"

Hanabi just stared at the waitress. "Commoner, you can get me some milk and Sushi without mitsuba, Ruto-Kun a coke and a salmon, but before you get us our main course, you can bring out a dish of fish stick and make it snappy!"

Mitsuki was appalled by the 9 year olds rudeness unfortunately she could not talk back or do anything with the food like she usually does with normally rude customers, as she feared the Hyuuga. "Y-Yes Hyuuga-San!"

Hanabi growled as Mitsuki ran off. "I hate the name Hyuuga."

Naruto glared at Hanabi, who looked up and shrugged. "What?"

Naruto sighed frustratingly. Well, that certainly answers my question; she's like this to everyone else. I'll have to talk to her on our way home about that, as I have other questions to ask her. There is no doubt that she likes me, but… "Nothing was just thinking about the near future."

Hanabi stared down at the table, a bit saddened about any outcome to any of this. "Oh…"

Naruto smiled as he put his hand on hers. "Whatever happens, I'll be there for you and your sister."

Hanabi smiled at Naruto's words and physical contact. "Thanks."

Naruto let his expression fall flat before addressing Hanabi's earlier comment. "Nabi-Chan, when you said you hate the name Hyuuga, what did you mean?"

Hanabi grit her teeth together. "Ever since I was born, my life has been planned. I was meant to be the Head of the Hyuuga Clan. I didn't mind because it was all I knew. I was kept in the compound 24/7, always on watch. Sure, I could take walks in the garden, but that was all I could go. I think they purposely kept me in so being Clan Head was all I knew, at least until it would be too late for me to do anything."

"It wasn't until 2 years ago that I got curious and began asking what was outside and they told me not to worry about more than the politics and the ninja system. I was denied the request. Frustrated, I managed to escape their eyes and stepped outside for the first time. I was amazed at how big the village was, I even discovered the park." Hanabi smiled as she remembered her first time on the swing.

"Unfortunately, as I discovered the beauty, I also discovered the ugly. Some kids, who I guess feared or hated the Hyuuga Clan, began picking on me. Some of the words they said almost made me doubt my existence, as pitiful as it was. They almost got physical when I was saved."

Naruto raised an eyebrow. "Saved? By who?"

Hanabi smiled as she placed her hands on Naruto's, whose heart began racing. "You, while I did not have an immediate crush on you, I admired you. You represented what I was just discovering, the freedom to choose my own path. While it was not completely clear that day, every time I saw you, you were either picked on by the other kids or were not treated right by the commoners. But you did not let that get you down. You got right back up and continued to try to prove your existence. You still are."

"As to how many times I saw you, it was not that many times, but when the Clan discovered that I saw outside the compound, they were forced to show me around, otherwise they'd know I'd rebel. Every time I saw you get picked on, the more I thought it was not right. So I finally decided to return the favor and protect you and here we are now."

Naruto smiled. "So your feelings didn't come out of nowhere. While I don't particularly remember saving you, as I saved many others from bullying, I felt like I met you somewhere from before."

Hanabi didn't know how she felt about that, at least he somewhat recognized her, a little. "It's alright."

Naruto frowned. "So now because you saw all there was to see in the outside world, you want freedom from your clan… Be honest with me Nabi-Chan, are you trying to use me to gain your freedom?"

Hanabi's breathing suddenly stopped as her heart started racing. Oh no! What do I tell him? I want him to choose me, but I don't think he would if I told him that at least a part of me is using him for this freedom! What do I do!? Suddenly, words spoken by Naruto echoed within her mind. "Just know answering my questions truthfully would only help you for the future." Hanabi took a deep breath to calm help herself. He definitely won't choose me if I'm not honest with him. Even if I did lie and he still picked me, he would eventually discover the lie and the trust between us will crumble. "I would be lying if I said no."

Naruto simply stared at her, silently telling her to go on.

Hanabi felt her heart race again. "Yes, while I do have feelings for you, a part of me always has been trying to get you to choose me so I could have my freedom."

Naruto smiled comfortingly. "It takes a lot to admit something like that. I will take this into consideration for doing this. I must ask, why did you tell me the truth?"

Hanabi laid her head on the table as her stomach growled. "You said something about telling the truth, but I decided it was best to do so because if you chose me and I lied then you would have eventually found out, then where would our trust be at that point?"

Naruto nodded. "I don't know, but thanks for telling the truth anyways."

Hanabi looked up as she saw their drinks and appetizer. "No problem, fish sticks are here."

Naruto looked up and smiled. "Finally!"

Before the waitress could say anything, Hanabi swiped the drinks and the plate from the tray and glared at Mitsuki. "What took you so long commoner!? There was enough time to tell my whole life story! Our food better be out here by the time our fish sticks are done. I'm starving!"

As the two were walking from the restaurant, Naruto decided to talk about her attitude towards others. "Nabi-Chan, why do you treat other people in such a way?"

Hanabi glared at Naruto. "They are commoners, Ruto-Kun. It is through only special circumstances that I don't treat in such a manner, even though you are a commoner!"

Naruto sadly sighed. "It seems being high-class has given you the lack of appreciation for your position and perhaps the lack of sympathy for those in not such a lucky position."

Hanabi simply shrugged it off as it was nothing. "I don't care about dirt eating commoners. In my opinion they should just die off so they don't have to live with such misery."

Naruto glared hard at Hanabi as he stopped walking, which forced Hanabi to stop as well. "Nabi-Chan, why do you have such an attitude towards those less fortunate?"

Hanabi crossed her arms. "Are we really going to do this now?"

Naruto sighed as he rubbed his temples. "Yes. How you treated our waitress and seater was uncalled for."

Hanabi ground her teeth. "What, you expect me to be nice like my push over of a sister!?"

Naruto shook his head with a frown. "No, I don't expect you to be anything like your sister, but that does not mean you have to be rude to everyone around you. That is not a good way to make friends."

Hanabi began feeling tear in her eyes. "Baka! How can I possibly be nice to those who have always been mean to the person I love now!?"

Naruto's jaw snapped shut as Hanabi took a deep breath. "Ruto-Kun, I need you to understand something, believe it or not, my attitude was way worse when I was small, but that was because I was told to behave in such a manner. In some way it stuck to me. I never let it out to you because you only deserve kindness, but I have no such reserves for those who would ostracize someone for something they didn't even do."

Naruto was speechless. "So… your clan made you like this?"

Hanabi nodded. "Yeah, but like I have been trying to escape them, I've been trying to change myself for the past two years."

Naruto smiled as he hugged her. "Good, because that attitude you had was not you. I know the real Nabi-Chan is somewhere in you. I want to see her come out and transform you into a better person."

Hanabi sniffled as she broke contact. "Thanks."

Naruto and Hanabi arrived at the apartment to find Hinata sleeping. Naruto looked at Hanabi and nodded to her to tell her to change back. Naruto then sat on the couch next to her and gently shook her awake. "Hinata-Chan."

Hinata slowly woke up. "Huhn, Naruto-Kun?"

Naruto nodded. "Yes, it's me… I want to ask you something."

Hinata yawned herself awake. "Sure… hey, how did your date go with Imouto-Chan?"

Naruto shook his head. "I'll tell you later. Why do you love me?"

Hinata raised an eyebrow, slightly put off by the suddenness of such a question. "Because… you saved me from some bullies when we were young. Since then, I-I've always watched you in the background, growing up a-and never giving up. I-I was so inspired, that I got a crush almost immediately. That crush grew into something more recently…"

Naruto grimly looked up at the ceiling. "Do you love me so much that are you willing to give up on your dream of becoming the Clan Head?"

Hinata gasped. "N-Naruto-Kun, why ask such a thing!?"

Naruto glared at Hinata. "Are you?"

Hinata looked down at the floor. "Y-Yes."

It may have been a nervous yes, but the truthfulness hasn't been clearer. But still… She should not give up her dream because of me, what if it doesn't work out? Hell, what if my relationship with Nabi-Chan doesn't work out if I choose her? Difference is, Nabi-Chan wants freedom so even if it does not work out, she still has achieved her dream, while Hinata will lose everything if I fall out with her. But Nabi-Chan is 9 years old! At least Hinata is my age… Hell, I'm not ready to do any of this!

"Ruto-Kun, your turn to change."

Naruto was snapped out of his thoughts. "Thanks."

After Naruto changed he called the two sisters and they sat either side of him. Hanabi looked up, heart beating fast. "So, have you made your decision?"

Naruto opened his mouth, then closed it, then opened it again before closing it again. With a frustrated sigh he closed his eyes and looked down. "I… I will have an answer for you in the morning… I have to sleep on this. It will not be an easy decision. Good night."

Hinata and Hanabi at the same time said the same thing. "Night."

Naruto silently walked out of his bedroom and closed the door. One way or another, tomorrow morning will be filled with tears.

Hinata and Hanabi stared each other, both scared for what will happen tomorrow. "Hinata Nee-Chan, can you please hold me while I sleep? I'm scared for what will happen in the short future."

Hinata smiled kindly. "Of course Hanabi-Chan. I will always be there for you."

Hanabi sniffled as the two lied down on the bed and covered themselves with the blanket, wondering what Naruto's future decision will bring them.

A/N Alright! Chapter finally done! I could post this! Yay! There is one more chapter to this than I can officially turn this into a complete. Alright, I already made up my mind for who Naruto is going to choose. The thing is, I won't let you know until that chapter is out. But, you can still try and convince me for either of the girls by using the reviews. Simply voting will not work, for I have made up my mind. Like I said you have to convince me to have Naruto choose the girl you want him to wind up with. It can not be both. Don't worry, you'll probably have a couple months before I finally get around to this fic again. But once I start writing the next chapter to this fic, nothing anyone can say will make me change my mind.

So, try to convince to have Naruto choose Hinata or Hanabi, but not both.

Don't forget to R&R! This is 9tailsfox2 signing off!
