Hey everyone, I'm back and with a new chapter. And yes I know I'm late. I'm late, I'm very much late for my date. Sorry, had Alice in Wonderland on my brain when I wrote that, the original cartoon one from 1951. My family is a big Disney fan which is the only reason I was able to watch it.
I had my final exams a few weeks ago and then I had to help plan TWO parties for both holidays. I also just found out that two of my cousins are going to be parents. So a lot of craziness has been going on in my life.
Anyway, I haven't gotten many comments from you guys, but I won't let that deter me. I love writing for you and well… I just love writing period I don't have much reason besides those two. Now I had some comments about how I did things in the first chapter, not the prologue, and I will let you all know right now. I don't plan on doing another one of those anytime soon, but I won't promise that will not happen again. I just find it need to make Kakashi's torture funny.
Kakashi: It wasn't funny you…bastard…bitch? Hey, what is your gender I can't tell.
Me: Good I want it that way. And before you ask I asked Kushi-chan to add a seal that prevents anyone from your world to see my true gender. The only ones that know are her, Sakura, Naruto, and Kura-chan. Tsunade was too blinded with rage and her desire for sake to take notice. I think.
Tsunade: Oh I noticed, I just know how to keep a secret, plus I figured you wanted to stay completely anonymous to your readers.
Me: Thank you Tsunade-sama, your kindness is too much.
Tsunade: Finally, a brat that knows how to act in front of their elders.
Me: I had manners drilled into me by my overbearing parents for years since I was a child. Though I will admit that I do have a few "Naruto" moments every now and then. By the way, I just acquired some of the best sake I have ever had. As thanks help yourself to it.
Tsunade: Why thank you, don't mind if I do.
Kakashi: I can still go to the others and ask them, but I can't ask Kushina-neechan that. She would pound me into the ground first before revealing it.
Me: Sorry but I made them swear not to tell anyone.
Kakashi: How?
Me: I showed them what happened to Jiraiya. (pulls a few pictures)
Kakashi: …
Me: Well?
Kakashi: I will never ask what your gender is. Ever!
Me: Good. Fair warning about this chapter, there will be implied rape here. And a quick reminder, I still want your guys' opinion on the name of my OC character still missing a name. I will take suggestions, but if you don't want to the names are at the end of the last chapter. Now this chapter is all in Hinata's point-of-view, so Hinata do your best.
Hinata: W-What?!
"Kyuubi," normal speech.

Last time:
Everyone but me went into their preferred stances, ready to attack the strange woman should she prove to be dangerous. I decided to be the one to try and talk to her at least. "So who are you anyway?"
The woman just smiled at me. That smile made that warm feeling in me grow for some reason. "Why I'm your mother Natsumi."
Konoha Hospital-Hinata's POV
I'm not sure what surprised me more today. Naruto actually being a girl named Natsumi, that I was still liked her, or the fact Kyuubi came out of the seal by itself, or the fact that Kyuubi was actually a WOMAN all this time. When I first saw Kyuubi coming out, I went into my family's signature Juken stance ready to attack her if she threatened Naruto, I mean Natsumi. That's going to take a little bit of time to get used to. Now this woman just threw another surprise at us by saying she was Naru…Natsumi's mother. 'Okay, I need to get my thoughts in order so I don't mess up anymore. But how do I do that? Wait, didn't father teach me a method to help with this. I think it was to repeat the information multiple times in my head'
I began to repeat to myself that Naruto was actually Natsumi and that he was actually a beautiful, incredible, …sexy girl. That last part stopped me and made me blush badly, though thankfully nobody noticed…I hope. 'Though she is sexy looking with those curves on her. No, bad Hinata. Very bad Hinata. No naughty thoughts, it will not help right now to get excited thinking about her that way. Well at least the trick worked, though it did need an embarrassing thought to help it.'
Natsumi spoke just as I finished that thought, and her voice sounded so beautiful but in was tinged with a hint of anger and disbelief which sounded out of place. "I don't believe."
Kyuubi let out a sigh. I know what that horrible woman did to you at that time in your life. Would it help you believe me if I had Tsunade do a chakra resonance test?
Natsumi looked confused. 'Wait, she couldn't NOT know that chakra resonance only happens between relatives since their chakra signatures are so similar to each other, but then again she didn't know the important parts of puberty either. "Natsumi, do you not know what chakra resonance is?"
Natsumi looked between me and the stranger with the same expression on her face and simply asked, "What are you two talking about?"
I was shocked to hear this, and by the looks of everyone else, excluding Kyuubi woman, they were as well. Lady Tsunade, Hinako, and Kyuubi expressions soon turn to immense anger and the started to leak some killing intent at what had happened to Natsumi. Lady Tsunade, can you please explain what chakra resonance is to her. I'm afraid I'll lose it and go after those bastards that mistreated him if I do it.
Lady Tsunade just nodded and explained to Natsumi about chakra resonance; how it works and what it is normally used for in the medical world. However, she also tried to get a little bit of the talk but was interrupted by Kyuubi. Oh no you don't, I already missed out on raising her properly because of that damn seal, you are not taking an important moment for a parent. I want to make up for that lost time, plus I need to do the explain as per our clan laws. Isn't that right, Hinako?,she said, with the last part directed to Hinako.
Hinako just smiled and nodded to the question. Kiba decided to speak up at this point by yelling. "Wait a minute. What do you mean by YOUR CLAN laws? Naruto…Natsumi, whatever her name is now, doesn't belong to any clan, she's an orphan. And speaking about you, you want to go on a …"
He didn't get to finish that question as just then two fists from two of the female members in the room met his face. One being the Kyuubi and the other…being me. Kiba flew out of the room through the door and also through the wall to the other corridor in this wing.
This not only surprised me, but everyone else, though everyone else had a hint of fear on their faces. This was especially true for Hinako, who was cowering in the closest corner to the open window ready to jump out of it to escape. But, I was not entirely focused on that as I was more surprised that I just HIT Kiba. Me. 'I've never hit anyone out of rage or anger. What is happening to me?' I thought to myself.
Kyuubi looked over to me and stared for a second before having a mischievous smile on her face. Oh goody, my girl found one of her mates already. Guess she got my good luck from the seal as well as my chakra. And she is just like Kushi-chan when angered, minus the scary hair.
I got confused at this and asked, "What are you talking about and who is Kushi-chan?"
Kyuubi's smile just grew at my question. Oh don't you worry about that for now, I'll tell you everything later when I give Natsumi the talk. But for your other question, Kushi-chan is one of my spouses and the woman who gave birth to Natsumi. Her name was Kushina Uzumaki…-Namikaze.
My eyes widened at the last part of her statement as did every one of the genin in the room from the look of their faces. 'Natsumi was the daughter of the FOURTH HOKAGE. But why would the Third Hokage and all of the clan heads keep that a secret. Father has a lot of explaining to do when I get back home.' That last thought startled me. 'What is happening to me? I have never been aggressive or hateful or felt any emotion this strongly.'
I looked around the room and everyone was still in shock at the reveal of Natsumi's heritage. The only ones that were calm were Lady Tsunade, Hinako, and the Kyuubi who was grinning like when Natsumi was Naruto and she was planning a big prank. I looked at Natsumi and saw that she was couldn't decide if she wanted to be sad or go into a rage. She apparently need help to decide, so she asked, "Why me? Why did he put you in me? You know what I went through, did he know that would happen? DID HE HATE AND WANT TO TORTURE ME?"
Natsumi was screaming with tears in her eyes by the end of her questioning, clearly upset over the revelation of her heritage. Kyuubi just looked at her with sadness present in her eyes, she walked over to the sobbing girl and embraced her in a hug. Natsumi started lashing out at the woman in a panic, but the Kyuubi held on to her. After a while, Natsumi stopped attacking Kyuubi and latched onto the woman like her life depending on Kyuubi and sobbed into the woman's shoulder.
Natsumi stayed like this for a long time. When she was done, she slowly pulled away from Kyuubi's shoulder and wiped her eyes. Seeing her like that broke my heart at how much she was suffering on the inside.
When she opened them, her eyes were red from all the crying she had done. When I turned my head away slightly, not enough to look away but enough to see everyone else. I saw that everyone was crying, even Shino shown to be crying by the tears appearing from underneath his sunglasses. Kyuubi gave her a gentle smile, one that was so full of life that it destroyed any doubt in my mind that she wasn't Natsumi's mother. Then she softly spoke to Natsumi, Do you feel better now, baby girl?
Natsumi just nodded as a response as her voice was most likely hoarse. Kyuubi just kept smiling. Okay, I'll answer your questions now. First off, know that your birth mother and your father loved you so much before that incident, she said with disgust but continued, never doubt that. Now your father sealed me into you so that one of your three parents would always be with you. However, as you can probably tell he screwed up the seal at the end based on our first meeting. Now, don't ask about why you have three parents I will get to that later when we are alone. It's part of the talk I have to give you. Your father wanted you to be seen as a hero that protected the village, but the villages let their hatred consume them like a typical Uchiha. Does that make you feel better?
Natsumi nodded slightly. "Yeah it does. Can we do that chakra thing now? I…I just want to make sure."
Kyuubi smiled again. She put her hand into the air and channeled some of her chakra into it, making glow red. Of course sweetheart. Now just put your hand against mine and channel chakra into it.
Natsumi did as she was told and soon Lady Tsunade came over. She put her hands, covered in medical chakra, on top of theirs. All three stayed like that for a while before eventually moving away with a small smile on her face. "It is an eighty-seven percent match; she is a direct relative. This means she is your mother, brat."
Natsumi looked at Kyuubi, her eyes starting to well up with fresh tears. "M…Mom!" she yelled out as she lunged towards her now confirmed mother and embraced her in a tight hug. She cried more into her mother's shoulder, but this time the tears were tears of happiness instead of hate and sorrow. Kyuubi smiled and embraced her daughter with the same enthusiasm.
I smiled as well, glad that Natsumi finally got what she wanted for so many years, a family. Everyone else was happy for her too from what I could see. Kiba was back in the room with fresh new bandages wrapped around his head. Tenten, Sakura, and Ino were awing at the sight before them, though Ino was grinning a bit evilly when they stopped for some reason. Shino's and Shikamaru's expressions remained the same but I could read them well enough to know they were happy as well. Neji had the faintest ghost of a smile gracing his lips. Choji was just grinning at seeing one of the people he respects finally happy.
After a while, Natsumi stopped crying again and she moved away from Kyuubi sniffling and rubbing her eyes. She opened her beyond red eyes and smiled at her mother. "Mom, can we go home?"
Kyuubi's smile just got even bigger. Yes, we can sweetie, but not to that rat infested hole you call home. I will not have my daughter living in that area any longer now that I have any say about it.
Sakura apparently got curious at that statement. "Where was she living anyway? I tried to find out when she was Naruto since I've had to go get her once before when she was later than even Kakashi-sensei for training. But I found her nearby and heavily bruised."
Natsumi started fidgeting, obviously becoming uncomfortable and not wanting to answer Sakura's question. Kyuubi noticed this and decided to answer for her. She was living in the red-light district in a run-down apartment normally used by hookers. At least from what I did hear while in the seal.
There was a collective gasp from all of us except Shizune and Lady Tsunade. I looked to Natsumi and her head was down in embarrassment and shame, but there was another emotion that I have never seen on her face before when she was Naruto, fear. I then looked at the others and they looked to be disgusted with her for living there and I didn't like it. They were judging her based on where she was, so I decided to change that. I walked over to her, took her hand gently, and asked her softly, "Natsumi…did you ever take part in those activities there?"
Natsumi turned to look at me, but her eyes didn't show their normal happiness. They were the eyes of someone suffering. When she spoke, it was so soft but everyone still heard her. "Not willingly."
I was shocked to hear that. And from the look on everyone else's face that were too. However, the only one showing any other emotion was Kyuubi, and she was just radiating anger. Her tails were moving around wildly and her long hair was somehow levitating and splitting look like nine extra tails. She looked like she was about to go on a rampage, which she probably was.
Sakura managed to mutter out, "W-w-what?"
Natsumi was visibly shaking now and was holding her arms tight enough to turn her knuckles white. I hugged her and tried to comfort her as best I could. Seeing this seemed to calm Kyuubi down a little, just enough to think and speak without showing much anger. Baby, can you tell what that woman was like?
"Men and women." Natsumi said.
What? Kyuubi's voice showing more of her rage.
"Both men and women used me there. They said that they could use me however they wanted since I wasn't a human. Plus, it was either that or they would have done it to all the girls I liked, so I didn't have a choice."
That just set everyone off. "WHAT?" they all said in a rage.
"HOW COULD THEY?" Ino and Tenten shouted.
"NOBODY HURTS MY FRIENDS! THEY ARE DEAD!" Kiba shouted with Akamaru barking in agreement.
Choji, Shikamaru, Shino, and Neji merely nodded, but had hatred burning in their eyes.
Sakura looked like she was going to be sick. She realized that what Natsumi just said meant that she would have been raped if not for Natsumi.
As for me, I was absolutely furious at the civilians of Konoha for what they did. Natsumi was crying again at the memories of her suffering. "Please no more, no more," she said clutching her head.
I hugged her again this time to provide her a sense of safety and protection. Kyuubi turned toward Lady Tsunade. I want the whores and bastards who did this to my little girl. NOW!
Lady Tsunade nodded and said, "I'll have the Inuzuka and Anbu track them down, but I have to ask Natsumi one more question."
She turned toward Natsumi, and I glared at her to let her know to tread lightly. She gave a slight nod to show she understood. She knelt down next to Natsumi and spoke with a gentle, caring tone. "Natsumi, I know you don't want to remember, but can I ask you one more question? Can you be strong enough for that?"
Natsumi's nod was just barely noticeable, but Lady Tsunade still picked it up. "Okay, do you have anything of theirs from when they…did that to you?"
Natsumi looked up to her and gave a small smile. She asked for her kunai pouch though which confused me a bit. Tenten quickly brought it though and gave it to Natsumi. As soon as she received it she dumped all the content out of it and then turned it inside out to reveal two seals on the front and back. One had the kanji for kunai, but the other had the kanji for keys on it. She touched a finger to the key seal and soon smoke appeared from the seal to reveal a ring of three different keys. She handed the keys to Shizune and spoke with a hollow voice, "Go to my apartment and then look behind the bookcase, you'll find a safe. Take the box inside and when you open it, you will find a sealing scroll with what Baa-chan is looking for. Can we go now?" This question was directed to Kyuubi.
The tone in her daughter's voice somehow brought Kyuubi out of her rage temporarily. Yes, we can baby. I'll take you to our proper home. But we need to do one more thing before we go there.
"What is it?"
We need to stop by the Hyuuga compound and get an audience with Hinata's father. There is something we need to talk with him about.
Natsumi and I looked at Kyuubi with confused looks. "Why?" we both asked.
Why about your future engagement to each other, of course, she said with a mischievous grin on her face.
My eyes became as large as dinner plates and I could only assume Natsumi's were doing the same. "WHAT?" we yelled.
And there we are. The end of the chapter, so what do you think everyone and I do appreciate all or input and try to implement it into the story. And I know some of you think I am a sick person for putting the rape of a child in here, but this is something I see as possibly happening with the civilians of Konoha at this time. I also need a reason to punish them and wanted to put my thoughts of what the punishment of any rape case should be in here as well. Just to put it out there I hate rapists and think they should get a punishment worse than death for the rest of their lives.
Kakashi: I can understand your feelings on the subject a little. I hate rapists too, but not to that extent.
Me: Thank you Kakashi, I appreciate someone supporting me on this to some degree.
Naruto: More importantly, WHY DID YOU HAVE ME RAPED BY BOTH GENDERS. I AM NOT GAY.
Me: I already explained it earlier, Naruto. Now settle down or give you the same treatment as Jiraiya.
Naruto: 'Gulp' No thank you.
Me: Also you will get justice in this story. I can tell you that much.
Kyuubi: Good, my child deserves it.
Hinako: I agree.
Me: Hello Kyuubi, Hinako. Nice to finally see you here.
Kyuubi: Good to be here. And by the way, me and Hinako can see the real you, but we promise to not say anything. Though you have to do one thing for me.
Me: Depends on what it is.
Kyuubi: 'whisper'
Me: Done. I was already planning that anyway.
Kyuubi: Good to hear. Hinako anything you want.
Hinako: Not that I can think of at the moment.
Me: Okay, well that's all for today guys. So, see ya later.
