Chapter 7: Now You Know.
Tsunade and Hinata were walking back to the village after the events that happened with him and the naked people. Tsunade was carrying Naruto in her arms since he passed out after Hinata calmed his inner beast. The two girls walked for a few miles in complete silence as they headed towards the village.
Once they reached the gate to the village Tsunade stopped so she could say something to Hinata.
"Hinata, will you do me a favor?" Tsunade asked.
"S-Sure, w-what is it?" Hinata asked.
"As we walk through the village, I want you to look at the way people look at Naruto, and I want you to try and figure out why they're looking at him like that. Do you think you can do that for me?" Tsunade asked.
Hinata got confused but decided she would just go along with it. "S-Sure, I-I can do that." Hinata replied.
Tsunade nodded her head and walked through the one of the gates of the village with Hinata trailing close behind. As the two of them walked Hinata started looking at the people of the village. As she looked she found that almost all of the villagers had their gaze locked onto Naruto.
Hinata could see that they all had the look of disgust and hatred in their eyes. Some people had so much intensity in their gaze that it physically made her sick to know that someone could actually look at another human with that much hatred in their eyes.
"Why do they all stare at him like that? Have they always done that?" Hinata asked herself as she started to turn pale and shaky from the cold stares the villagers gave Naruto.
Hinata and Tsunade walked for several moments before they finally reached Tsunade's residence again. After Hinata and Tsunade walked through the doors Tsunade stopped once again.
"So what did you see Hinata?" Tsunade asked as she turned around to find a pale and shaky Hinata.
"W-Why d-do they l-look a-at h-him like t-that? H-How long h-have they d-done that t-to him?" Hinata asked with a shaky voice.
"Ever since he was born." Tsunade said as she started walking up the stairs towards her office with Hinata slowly walking behind her.
Once they reached her office Tsunade tried her best to open the door without waking Naruto up from his coma. Once she finally opened the door she walked into her office to find that Shizune was passed out on her desk.
"Figures." Tsunade said as she walked over to a chair and gently placed Naruto in it so he wouldn't wake up.
Tsunade then pulled two more chairs to the other side of the room and sat down in one, then gestured for Hinata to sit in the other. As Hinata sat down she blushed a little at how adorable Naruto looked when he was sleeping.
"Now Hinata, why do you think the people of the village treat Naruto the way they do?" Tsunade asked.
Hinata quickly lost her blush and got a sort of sad expression on her face. "I-Im not sure. N-Naruto hasn't done anything b-bad has he?" Hinata asked with worry in her voice.
"No, Naruto hasn't really ever done anything super bad. Or at least not bad enough for people to treat him like that." Tsunade explained.
"W-Well then I d-don't know. D-Do you know Lady Tsunade?" Hinata asked.
"Yes and I'm going to tell you why the villagers treat him the way they do, but, you have to promise me that will not tell anyone else about it. After I tell you, you will be the only one in your entire Genin class that will know Naruto's secret. So… Do you promise you won't tell anyone?" Tsunade asked.
"Y-Yes, I-I promise I won't tell anyone." Hinata said with absolutely no intent on ever breaking that promise.
"Good. So do you remember when the Nine-Tails attacked the village and how the 4th Hokage killed it and saved the village?" Tsunade asked.
Hinata got a little confused as to why Tsunade just randomly changed the subject.
"Y-Yes, why?" Hinata asked.
"Well, what I told you that everything you know about the attack of the Nine-Tails was wrong?" Tsunade said with a strange pitch to her voice.
"W-What do you mean Lady Tsunade?" Hinata asked.
"I mean that, the 4th Hokage didn't kill the Nine-Tails, he just sealed it away." Tsunade said as tears formed in her eyes.
Hinata started to get a bad feeling in her stomach. "W-Well w-what did he seal it in?" Hinata asked reluctantly.
Tsunade took a moment then stood up and walked over to Naruto's sleeping body. She then placed on hand in front of her face with two fingers sticking up and the other hand on Naruto's chest.
"Come here Hinata, you need to see this." Tsunade said as Hinata stared at her in confusion.
Hinata reluctantly got up and walked over to Naruto and watched as a black seal suddenly formed over Naruto's stomach. Hinata felt her heart explode in her chest.
"This is where he sealed the Nine-Tailed fox. He sealed it right inside Naruto." Tsunade said as a tear ran down her cheek.
Hinata also started crying as she now knew why everyone hated Naruto so much, and it wasn't even his fault. Although for some reason this seemed to make Hinata love Naruto even more. She now thought of Naruto as an even bigger hero than the 4th Hokage or anyone who could have even been called a hero at this time. Naruto just ranked #1 on the charts for Hinata. Not that he wasn't already there of course.
"What you saw today in the forest wasn't Naruto. It was the Nine-Tails. For some reason the seal seems to be weakening and the Nine-Tails Chakra is now able to seep out whenever Naruto loses control of his emotions. And what you saw was just 4 tails worth of the immense power that the Nine-Tails posses. If it were to get any worse than that, then I personally fear for Naruto's sanity and life." Tsunade explained.
"So in order to make sure something like that doesn't happen while he's in the village I'd like you to look out for him Hinata." Tsunade said.
Hinata instantly stopped crying. "Y-You want me to l-look after N-Naruto? W-Why?" Hinata asked.
"Because, If you weren't with me today when we found Naruto, then I would be dead. The Nine-Tails would have killed me just as quickly as he killed the other three people. And I'm alive because of you. For some reason you seem to be able to calm the beast within Naruto, that's why I want you to look out for him. I'm going call up an old friend and have him take a look at that seal on Naruto and see if he can't stop the Nine-Tails Chakra from leaking out. Until then though, you are not to leave Naruto's side at all. Do you understand?" Tsunade asked.
Hinata blushed once she heard Tsunade's terms.
"I-I think s-so b-but what exactly d-does that m-mean?" Hinata asked.
Tsunade sighed. "It means that you are not allowed to leave Naruto's side until Jiraiya gets here. Meaning you two will be spending a LOT of time together, and I mean a LOT." Tsunade replied as she watched Hinata's face turn an even brighter shade of red each time she emphasized the word 'lot' to her.
Hinata didn't know what to say. She just stood there blushing like crazy.
Then Tsunade got a crazy looking smile on her face.
"Which that also means that you two will have to spend the night together for a while… of course." Tsunade said.
Hinata's blush went through the roof. Her whole body turned a glowing red color. Her muscles tensed up like she had just been shocked by electricity. Her mind went blank and she fainted almost instantly after she heard Tsunade say this.
Tsunade started giggling as she looked at the still red tinted unconscious Hinata lying in the floor. After Tsunade got done laughing at one of Hinata's cute little episodes she picked the girl up off the floor and placed her in a chair and pulled the chair right next to Naruto's.
Tsunade then took a second and looked around her office.
"Man, everyone is asleep now. I guess I might as well go to sleep too." Tsunade said as she yawned and walked back to her chair she was sitting in before. She then put herself in a comfortable position and quickly drifted off to sleep.
Chapter 7: End.
So… did I ever mention that I might add a sex scene between Naruto and Hinata? No? Oh. Whoops. I still probably won't do it. It depends on if any of you want to see that happen. Of course you do need to understand that in my story they are both currently 12 years old so… yeah… But hey, if you want it, then I'll write it. But if you don't want it yet then I will write one when they get older and are married or something, ya know?
But anyway, I thought I would try out a different style of writing this time around. Someone left a review saying the story was a little choppy so I figured I would see if I could fix that this time.
Sorry for the shorter chapter but the next one should be fairly long compared to this one, after all Naruto and Hinata will be spending a LOT of time together now. I know this idea is kind of cliche in the fact that I've read a couple of stories where this happens, but almost all of those stories are strictly sex driven and my isn't so, ya know.
