Chapter 3

Arriving at the top of the monument, Hinata looked out at Konoha and thought about how great it was to be back. A few moments later, Naruto arrived panting heavily.

"Damn I'm out of shape! These damn intelligence and muscle suppressing seals really need to come off and quick." said Naruto mostly to himself.

"Glad to see you too honey." smirked Hinata, "Why haven't you let out Kyu-chan?"

"Well she's having a little trouble at the moment. You see, she's kinda battling her other form because she didn't accept the merger because she's still under the genjutsu. Kyu needs to beat her before they can get to assimilating their memories."

"Oh," said a now sad Hinata, "I hope she doesn't get hurt."

"Don't worry Hinata-chan," said Naruto now hugging Hinata, "Kyu-chan is stronger without the genjutsu than with it, and the fact that she learned a few tricks from us can't be bad now could it?"

"You're right, it's just with the bond, I can't help but be protective."

"I know, I feel the same way."

"But now to the matter at hand, deciding what we're going to change and when. I'm not going to join Team 7 again that's for sure."

"I can understand that, I don't want to be on the team with Kiba-kun again."

"Huh, why?"

"Well in the previous timeline, he always came on to me and I don't think that I will have the patience to turn him down peacefully this time. I'm not sure it's just because the bond or what but…." Hinata stated.

"Yeah and even if you wouldn't, I would."

"So no Team 7 and no Kiba on my team. We'll just have to make sure you and I get put on the same team."

"Yeah, but what about Mizuki-sensei?"

"What do you mean Naruto-kun?"

And so Naruto explained what happened after he failed in the previous timeline. (B/N: Everyone know the story? Good we'll move on.)

"I have to go through it again, otherwise how will I explain my sudden use of the Kage Bunshin, though just saying I saw it from Kakashi will save both of us a lot of trouble later on. He's pretty lax when it comes to training his jutsu."

"And besides, don't you think it would be wrong to take the scroll and not copy it? I never did find it when I was in office, Kami knows what kind of uses it had. Oh, that reminds me, could you copy every scroll in the Hyuga library?"

"Huh, why?" asked a startled Hinata.

"Well, I want to make a collection of every book and scroll in Konoha and to be honest, if you could copy everything I wouldn't have to sneak in and do it myself."

"Okay, but why do you want a copy of everything?"

"Do you remember near the end of the war when the Ino-Shika-Cho team died?"

"Yes, what about it?"

"Well, I always wondered if maybe they would have survived if they had been able to learn more of their family techniques. You do remember that many of those scrolls were lost in the fight against Pein."

"I can see where you're going with this but the elders are still watching me constantly and I can't copy everything by hand it would take years!" said Hinata, shouting the last part.

"I know, you could do it while I steal and copy the forbidden scroll, that should be a big enough distraction. And as for copying the scrolls, all you need is an empty scroll the same size as the scroll you want to copy, then just do the sequence of hand signs: rat, tiger, rat, tiger, ox. That's the copy no jutsu, I made it when I was in the academy."

"What, why?" asked Hinata.

"You know how I was treated Hinata-chan, the only time I could get a scroll with the right information was when I would copy it from another student."

"WHAT?!" shrieked Hinata," that is unacceptable Naruto-kun."

"I know but I still got through it and it motivated me to make this handy dandy jutsu, so it wasn't all bad."

"But how will you get into the other clan compounds?"

"Hinata-chan, are you forgetting who you are talking to? I'm Uzumaki Naruto, the greatest prank master Konoha has ever seen. I will just do the same thing I do when I pull my pranks, but this time I will copy everything first and then set of the prank. This way no-one will have a clue what I'm doing and maybe, just maybe, the clans will be more on guard and tighten up their security."

"You're right, but I'm still going to worry, and just how are you going to get on my team if you're still gonna fail the test?"

"Well, Jiji does still owe me one for covering for him when he was almost caught with his Icha Icha Paradise book."

"What?! Our Hokage is a PERVERT? I'll teach him, I'll jūken his little…"

"Now, now Hinata-chan, he just uses it to get away from his paperwork, give him at least that one vice. Together with his pipe, it's all he has. Besides, it's not like he openly flaunts it like a certain Jonin I know, so don't be too hard on him. And don't even try and lie to me just what those grey books you hiding in your closet are for."

Meanwhile in Hokage Tower...

Sarutobi suddenly felt a chill running down his only to have it evaporate a few seconds later. He kneeled and thanked the LOG for the reprieve.

At the other end of town, Kakashi got the same chill and dread filled feeling but unfortunately for him, it didn't go away.

'I feel like my days are numbered. Oh well, that's the life of the ninja."

Back with Hinata and Naruto...

"You're right, I'll first get Kakashi then I'll get the Hokage."

"Now Hinata-chan, don't you think I should get to take care of Kakashi-'sensei'?" with an evil smile.

"But, but, he's a pervert, I want to hurt him."

'Don't worry you'll get to hurt Ero-sennin. I'll deal with Kakashi-kun." said Naruto, already thinking of his evil master plan involving orange masks, orange books, a pair of Gai's panties and lots of yaoi.

Suddenly, the dreadful feeling Kakashi felt multiplied tenfold, now he was a little scared.

"Alright, but only if you let me help." said Hinata activating the dreaded Puppy Eyes no jutsu. Naruto didn't stand a chance.

"Fine, you get to join in on the fun."

"So, until graduation, we allow everything to remain exactly the same."

"Yes dear, so don't forget to stutter and blush constantly."

"Oh dear LOG why did I have to do that when I was young?"

"Don't worry, after the exams are over we can start to change our personas, that way we can chalk it up to us maturing and hiding our talent. Now can you help get these damn seals of me? You have no idea how annoying it is to not only be so short again, but to be impeded by those damn seals again as well."

"I know, my body is completely out of shape. We'll need to train to get back up to snuff. Thank Kami you invented those gravity seals, they are much easier than those damn weights. Now hold still and I'll get those seals off."

Naruto was sure that he heard someone shouting about youth of some sort and he couldn't help but shiver.

"Thanks, I would do them myself but even I can't unseal a seal on my back and back of my head."

Even though Hinata wasn't a seal master, she was still adept at it. After all, you don't marry a master and not pick up a few things.

And so Hinata started to work, it was nearly sunset when she finished.

She wiped the sweat of her brow." Pffieuw glad that's over. So honey, how is Kyu-chan doing?"

"Oh she's just fine, she overpowered her younger version a few minutes back and is now assimilating her memories."

"Oh goody, I wanted to see her before I left and have to go back to being the shy girl again."

"I know hon," said Naruto pulling Hinata in to him so that they both faced the sunset, "she'll be ready in about three minutes but she'll have a splitting headache. I'm just glad that we didn't have a spar today cause I don't think I would have been able to walk, never mind fight someone with the migraine I had."

"I know what you mean, it was like Chouji used that hammer he had in the end and banged my head with it repeatedly."

Naruto chuckled at the image Hinata gave him. He could just see it now, Hinata, the strongest kunoichi in the village, getting hit in the head by Chouji and it trilling like it was a bell. Hearing him chuckle, Hinata pouted, which only made Naruto chuckle harder.

Finally, after Naruto had calmed down again, he adopted a faraway look and before Hinata knew it, she and Naruto were on the ground, bowled over by something. Her head had landed on something long fluffy and silky. When she got her bearings again she was happy to see Kyu-chan who now had two tails instead of the normal one.

"Umm, why does Kyu-chan have two tails? Isn't she too powerful then? Not that I mind or anything but won't everybody feel her?"

"Don't worry Hinata-chan, because of the merging you and I now have the chakra of our future selves along with the chakra our current selves and it will continue to grow. Kyu-chan now has something like the equivalent of 1.5 times 9 tails worth of chakra, which still wasn't even close to her gaining another tail. But since she's now bonded with both of us she can control two tails when she comes out of the seal herself, instead of just one."

Now at this point Kyu was starting to feel left out so she decided it was best to take matters into her own hands so she grabbed both of them and kissed them both soundly on the lips, this shocked both teenagers. Hinata for having her first kiss with another girl t this time and Naruto because he just saw the every straight man's dream played out live, directly in front of him.

Satisfied that she had both left them gaping, Kyu got settled in while both Hinata and Naruto's minds processed what just happened, and watched the sunset.

In the end they didn't want to continue their depressing talk and decided to continue it another time so they got comfortable and watched the sunset. Afterwards Hinata said she would have to go home but they decided to come back tomorrow. But for now at least they had to go back to pretending as if nothing happened.

Author's notes:

I know that not many people like the whole Fem Kyuubi Naruto Hinata love triangle thing but this will not be a major point in the story except it explains the protectiveness that they will all have for each other.
