Chapter 1 Enter Hinata

Naruto let out a massive yawn as he stretched his arms and woke up from his sleep at night. The orphaned ninja has bright yellow hair, sky blue eyes, and tan skin. Naruto quickly ate his toast and milk for breakfast before putting on his bright orange and navy-blue ninja outfit, with blue sandals. While in the process Naruto got rid of his goggles for his new leaf village ninja headband.

Naruto laughed in energetic joy as he closed his eyes and let out a goofy smile.

"Naruto! What are you doing here? Class today is only for the students who didn't fail!" Shouted an unnamed nobody.

"What?! Can't you see the headband?!" Shouted Naruto in an outrage for his peer not realizing the obvious.

"Excuse me you pathetic loser. You're in the way of my seat." Said Naruto's childhood friend Uchiha Sasuke, the second son of the current clan head Uchiha Fugaku and the long deceased Uchiha Mikoto. The thought of having the second strongest student pummeling him sent the unnamed nobody fleeing to his seat, causing Sasuke to sigh in mild frustration and annoyance. He is wearing a navy-blue coat, large blue sandals, and gray shorts with matching wristbands. There were also bandages to prevent minor injury on Sasuke's right thigh and legs. Sasuke was then harassed by numerous females and some males causing the Uchiha to growl in annoyed anger.

The door opened revealing a feminine voice as she asked, "Excuse me, may I pass?" Causing even more people both female and male to harass the top student of the class, Hyuuga Hinata the sole survivor of the Hyuuga Massacre. She has long navy-blue hair, lavender eyes, and pale skin. She is wearing an open lavender coat, a Japanese bra revealing her six pack abs, short blue jeans, along with black heel-sandals hybrid. Hinata revealed the attention she received before turning her eyes on Naruto as she smirked and seductively licked her lips.

"Hey thanks for catching that bastard he deserved it!" Shouted Hinata before she walked to her seat.

"Thanks?" Asked Naruto.

"You aren't aware of Mitsuki's illegal activities, are you?" Asked Sasuke.

"Uh…"

"I'll tell you later. That's not important right now."

'Honestly Naruto is so hot…' Thought Hinata. 'I should ask him to go shopping and teach him some jutsu as a reward for defeating Mitsuki…and even kiss. I don't know what Naruto sees in Sakura. She constantly assaults Naruto and treats him as some kind of vermin waiting to be tossed aside. I may be no angel but at least I treat people like people. Although I've been attracted to girls before I've never even considered dating Sakura.'

"From this day forward, you are no longer mere students of ninjutsu, but full-fledged shinobi. But among the ranks of the shinobi, you are mere novices, lowest of the low. Your greatest challenges all lie ahead. The next step is the assignment of official duties to you all on behalf of our village. We will begin by dividing you into three-man cells. Each of which will be mentored by a Jonin, a more senior ninja…Who will guide and coach you as you become familiar with your various assignments." Said Umino Iruka. He has beige skin, spiky brown hair, and dark brown eyes. He is wearing a navy-blue ninja outfit, and a green Jonin vest, along with a scar across his nose.

'Three-man cells? Sounds like too many…' Thought Hinata.

'It's perfect! I know they'll team me up with Sasuke!' Thought Sakura as she clenched her hand in determination. She has pink bubblegum hair, pale skin, and emerald-green eyes. She is wearing a red dress, and an emerald-green ninja outfit.

'Unless my clan interferes with the selection, me and Naruto should be teammates.' Thought Sasuke.

'So long as I'm partnered with Sasuke…I'll take anybody else…Except Hinata!' Thought Naruto.

"I made the selections so that each cell's abilities would be approximately equal." Said Iruka.

"What!" Shouted the whole class in anger.

"Next, cell number seven. Uchiha Sasuke…Uzumaki Naruto…" Said Iruka.

"Let's go!" Shouted Naruto before he and Sasuke Hi-5'd much to Sasuke outwardly dismay. Afterwards he gave Naruto a friendly smirk to make sure his friend didn't misread the situation.

"And…Hyuuga Hinata!"

"Master Iruka! What were you thinking of, saddling a most excellent shinobi like myself…with that bitch?!" Shouted Naruto causing Hinata to sadistically giggle.

'I kind of am a bitch and I take pride in it.' Thought Hinata.

"...Of the twenty-seven of you, Hinata had by far the best grades, Naruto. You would be at the bottom of the class. The idea is to balance your different strengths…That's why you ended up together!" Shouted Iruka.

"Just don't drag me down Naruto. Is that alright?" Teased Hinata.

"...Dunce!" Muttered Naruto.

"Why thank you. Dunce is a compliment compared to people calling me such as spoiled princess, diva, pretentious bitch, and others I don't bother thinking."

Iruka sighed before he thought '...Aww…they'll work it out. After all, the three of them treat each other like everyone else.' After finishing thinking about Naruto Iruka said "OK, everyone. I'll be introducing your senior ninjutsu instructors this afternoon. Until then, you're dismissed."

"Hinata is such a jerk! And Sakura isn't on my team! This sucks! This sucks!" Shouted Naruto as he ate his lunch on the roof. 'There has to be some sort of upside…Wait Sasuke and his sister-in-law taught me some ninjutsu. I'm a genius!' Thought Naruto, before he used a transformation jutsu to turn into Sasuke.

'How can I not be on the same team as Sasuke and that bitch Hinata is. At least Ino-pig isn't on his team…I can't stand her! How can I be overwhelmed by sex appeal…when I got so shortchanged in the T & A department?! The only part of me that's oversized is my stupid forehead! Which is just…Thought Sakura before she noticed what she thought was Sasuke in front of her, but it was really Naruto. 'It can't be! But it is! Sasuke–he's looking at me! With bedroom eyes! Like he can see right through me!'

Naruto, still disguised as Sasuke, approached Sakura before he said "You have such a noble brow. So charming. I could kiss it!"

"That's what it's here for!" Shouted Sakura as she clenched her hands together and blushed then sighed as the pink haired shinobi thought. '...Fairy tales don't come true…and it couldn't happen to me.'

"You have such a noble brow."

'What?' Thought Sakura as she blushed.

"So charming…I could kiss it!" Shouted Naruto before he and Sakura blushed at each other's presence.

'If I'm dreaming, don't wake me…Oh yeah! Dreams do come true!' Thought Sakura.

"That's probably what Naruto would say." Said Naruto, still pretending to be Sasuke as Sakura flopped her head in sorrow.

"Sakura, I have to know…"

"Yes?"

"What do you think of…Naruto? He's not that bad once you get to know him."

"...If he had his way, I'd never find love or happiness…Naruto doesn't understand me at all...I can't stand to have him anywhere near me! In fact, the one person whose opinion I value…The only one I really want to be close to…Is you, Sasuke…I'd do almost anything to win your attention…your respect…Because I have a crush on you…I'm desperate." Said Sakura before leaning into Naruto for a kiss.

'I'm finally starting to understand…What I love about Sakura!' Thought Naruto before he gasped and clenched his stomach.

"Hello Sasuke. We've been waiting for you. Come sit with us." Said Fugaku, the current leader of the Uchiha clan as he directed Sasuke to a seat on the table alongside his elder brother Itachi, and sister-in-law Izumi as she held their daughter Uchiha Mina, and another individual. He was wearing nothing but white robes, with the only clue for his identity being his mouth and scars across their right eye, making him blind.

"We're here to discuss the future of the clan. In more regard the future of a marriage proposal between clans to add allies between me and Vulture. It took everything that Sasuke had not to gag at the thought of having to kiss anyone. Sasuke was fine with children. In fact, he even babysits some of the children. Not to mention teaching a few of the older kids basic ninjutsu training.

"Yes father." Said Sasuke. Sensing Sasuke's discomfort and knowing about his brother's asexuality Izumi nodded at her husband while Itachi who also knows about Sasuke's biggest secret nodded back at her.

"Father, you realize that Sasuke is only twelve and he just graduated from the academy. Isn't it a little too early to talk about marriage? I wasn't married until I was 16 and we had to pull strings to make it happen." Said Itachi.

"It's never too early to talk about a betrothal for Sasuke, Itachi. I was going to propose Sasuke to marry Hinata or at minimum one of the female heirs to either a rich company in the land of fire or Ino from the Yamanyaka Clan. I've compromised enough with Sasuke's shinobi and betrothal status so that our clan can keep a stable image."

"I understand father." Said Itachi before he mouthed "Sorry" to Sasuke which the latter nodded at his brother.

"In the end I'd like for you to meet with the heiresses of the top business of The Land of Fire in a few months."

"I understand father." Said Sasuke before he bowed to his father and walked away.

"You may go too Vulture." Said Fugaku before he nodded and disappeared with a pile of leaves falling on the floor.

"M s-stomach…" Muttered Naruto in agony.

"What's wrong?" Asked Sakura in concern.

"I'm getting…the…r-r…runs! Gotta go!" Shouted Naruto as he sprinted to the bathroom while holding his stomach in agony.

"...Oh Sasuke. He's shy! Maybe he needs to gather up the courage to…' Thought Sakura before Hinata walked towards Sakura's line of vision from a tree.

"What the fuck Hinata? Were you stalking us?!" Shouted Sakura.

"You should focus on your career instead of childish behavior such as fangirling…That was Naruto, and he was pretending to be the real Sasuke…And people think I'm the dumbass…"

"Can't we just get away from Naruto for just one second?! Naruto doesn't let Sasuke be mine! He befriended him just to torment me! It's because he's badly brought up!"" Shouted Sakura as she ranted about Naruto, causing Hinata to give Sakura the stink eye. Ever since Hinata could remember she felt different from the rest of her peers, especially from her clan before their deaths besides wanting to kiss both genders. She had certain habits, preferred certain textures, and hated stimulates such as her old Hyuuga clothing. Hinata would much rather show her skin since she loved the feeling of wind, rain and even snow on her skin.

The Hyuuga quickly said "You mean…because he never had any parents?"

"He doesn't have to answer to anyone and that makes him completely selfish. If I did the troublemaking and retarded actions you and Naruto do my parents would ground me for life!" Hinata glared at Sakura as hard as she could to give her one last warning. Sakura didn't get the memo in the slightest and selfishly wanted to continue her rant. "Don't you envy people like me and Ino-pig having parents that don't make us completely selfish?" Wham! Hinata saw red and sucker punched Sakura in the face that completely shattered her jaw. It wasn't even a gentle fist strike, that's how pissed off Hinata was at Sakura. The latter fell to the ground as she clenched her jaw and let out a muffled scream. Hinata then kicked Sakura at her hip then stomped at her sternum, knocking the wind out of Sakura in the process.

"You're the real retarded bitch!" Shouted Hinata before she sobbed in anger, sorrow, and pain as she played with her fingers.

"Finally! It's over!" Shouted Naruto. "I wonder if Sakura is still waiting for me?" Shouted Naruto before he sprinted towards Sakura only to find Hinata sobbing from the corner of his eye. Her fingers were constantly fidgeting, and her body was shaking. Naruto decided to forget about Sakura for now and instead focus his seemingly never-ending energy on Hinata.

"Let it out." Said Naruto before Hinata screamed, thrashed, and sobbed. Naruto knew Hinata needed it. Hinata was more similar to Naruto than he ever thought. Before he knew it Hinata's screams became hoarse, her sobbing became sniffles and her thrashing stopped as the Hyuuga fell asleep in Naruto's arms. 'Well, this is weird. Since I have no clue where her manor is I might as well take her to my apartment.' Thought Naruto before he carried a now sleeping yet smiling Hinata towards his apartment.

What do you guys think about this story. I sure as hell enjoyed it when I wrote it within a few hours' timespan lol. Anyway, I feel like Sakura suffered from narcissistic personality disorder or at least had narcissistic tendencies. Let's be real we all wanted to punch Sakura when she made fun of an orphan for being an orphan in front of another orphan. The reasons why Sasuke and Hinata are OOC is because of the environment they grew up in. Basically, Sasuke had the toxic family instead of Hinata and turned into a half-average Joe and half humble prodigy. While Hinata had her family butchered by a relative instead of Sasuke thus grew up to be a bad girl but deep down Hinata is a damaged, scared child who is screaming for help.
