The creature that had killed Naruto looked at everyone as the body in it's jaws dripped blood all over it's teeth and the sand. It looked like a gigantic crocodile forty feety long and ten foot tall at the hips. Its head was five feet long, two feet wide and three feet deep. It was covered in large, bony scales colored rust and dark green with blood red slashes over it's eyes.
Just as Hinata started to regain her ability to reached to external stimulis, she heard a muffled shoot came from her left.
Lee, Gai and Neji all launched a headlong charge with no thought for style, just two Dynamic Entries and a full power, straight palm thrust. The croc-thingy waited tell the last second before it countered the charge by pivating on it's hind legs and smitted them with it's tail, then it turned to face it's left and Choji's dreaded Human-Boulder jutsu. The creature lowered it's head, squared it's feet and met the attack full on before throwing it's head, upper body and Choji (still plump and spinning) to the right and into the Fang over Fang jutsu launched by Kiba and Akamaru. As Kiba, Akamaru and Choji went down in a massive explosion Kakashi slipped to the right and charged in with a sparking Chidori ready. The creature responded by tossing Hinata's corps at him.
Time seemed to slow down as the body tumbled through the air and was impaled through the heart by Kakashi's Chidori, causing him to hesitate for a split second and fall to a shoulder charge from the creature.
Hinata watched all of this without the slightess ability to do anything, but the sight of her body falling limply too the ground with a four inch charred hole through the chest and almost unrecagnisable triggered a subconsus reaction.
Something in the back of Hinata's mind snapped, allowing her to jump to her feet a charge without a second thought. As she did this her mind dove deep into it's self, coming to the place where her body's Chakra was storied. In her own body her Chakra supply appeared in the form of a large waterskin from which she would pour out the amount she needed for any jutsu, It was sappel and so easy to form that she could do it without lossing any in the forming proscess. In Naruto's body the Chakra supply appeared as a massive iceburg, solid and full of cracks and fissures.
She tried to minipulate the colossal block of Chakra but couldn't get it to budge an inch. It had never moved for her in training and she was stomped as to why. She had excellent Chakra control, some of the best for her generation yet she was powerless when it came too minipulating Naruto's strange form of Chakra.
'Not like that' a soft voice said in the back of Hinata's mind causing Hinata to blink and looked around, trying to find the source.
'Back here' the voice seemed to be coming from right behind her. Hinata spun around and found herself face to face with a transparent, ghost image of Naruto.
'About time' the image said as it started to walk towards her 'I've been trying to get in contact with you for weeks'.
'Who or what are you?' Hinata asked. The image let out a few bark like laughs before he arrived within a foot of Hinata an stopped. He looked down at her in a warm, caring sorta way before he spoke next.
'I am the part of Naruto's mind that was left behind when he was hit with the Soul Switching jutsu. I represent his memories, his instincts and all of the other parts of Naruto's mind that were for the most part left up to his subconsuse to control.' the shadow Naruto said.
'And how are you supposed to help me?' Hinata asked.
The shadow Naruto sighed before patting Hinata on the head with his left hand. Hinata went stiff with shock as a memory from Naruto's past flashed through her mind. Not a vary happy memory eather. It showed Naruto being bet with an axe handle before being thrown bodily from a shop when he was eight.
'Listen Hinata, you know that it take a mix of physical and mental energy to minipulate Chakra right?' Hinata nodded a yes before the shadow continued 'well in order for you to have the mental energy to add to the mix you must have a whole mind. It can be twisted, blackened and all kinds of fucked up But it must be whole.'
Hinata chewed it over in her head for a moment before answering.
'So your saying that I'm not whole at the moment?' the Naruto shadow nodded rapidly at this 'then how do I become whole? cause I really need this Chakra right Now!'
The shadow sighed aguin before answering.
'You need to combine with me, to except all of the memories and instincts that are a part of this body as your own, then you can bring all of this bodies mental and physical energies to bare so that you can minipulate this Chakra supply and kick that lizards scalie backside.'
Hinata gualped as she asked how to do that. the shadow Naruto just smiled as he walk into her and did an about face. Hinata stiffened as she was suddenly inundated with Naruto's memories from as far back as her could remember, then she let out a scream as the feelings that went with those memories hit her like a freight train. It really was a good thing that she was on a island hundreds of miles out to sea and a VERY forgiving soul cause when the memory transfer was done she had a real desire to pound several (hundred) people into slimy red pulps, but she remembered that she had more immediate consurns.
She turned back to the iceburg of Chakra and contemplated just where to start. A small nudge in the back of her mind told her that she wouldn't be able to minipulate the whole thing so she grabbed a smaller chuck and broke off a piece about the size of her head, aloud it to decompress back to a more normal valium and absorbed it.
Hinata's eyes snapped open and she found herself in the middle of a headlong charge towards the croc-creature. She had covered maybe forty feet since she'd started and had another forty to go before she made contact. Well she should but the croc was charging her as well and that cut her reaction time in half as he came roaring in teeth first. Hinata grabbed a small amount of the Chakra that was flowing in her body and shuved it into her feet, allowing her to leap over the approaching jaws by several meters.
While in midair Hinata pivited to land on the creatures back but he sensced her coming and started a hard right turn, taking his back out from directly under Hinata's feet. Seeing this Hinata gathered all of the remaining Chakra into both of her forearms and palms and took careful aim.
"TWIN EMPTY PLAMS!" Hinata slamed both hands forewards, pumping two massive blasts of Chakra from her plams, through the air and into the creature's shoulder and flank. it also propelled Hinata several meters away from him as she grabbed, decompressed and aborbed another chuck of Naruto's Chakra and skidded to a stop.
The creature stood looking a Hinata for a moment as she stood up from her landing and gave him a foxy (almost feral) grin.
"Hello scalie butt, names Hinata, I'll be kicking your ass today" Hinata said in a friendly voice.
