Chapter 25: The Sunset that led to Nightmares

At first Ino would always defend Naruto against those who would attempt to demean him. And if necessary she would retort them by asking Naruto to prove that he was actually better than them.

And while Naruto never really minded doing it, Hinata had more of a problem toward it. Taking Ino to the side for a short talk Hinata explained how that Naruto didn't need any more attention than he already had and what Ino was doing wasn't helping at all. Being Rookie of the year and incredibly handsome and awesome as Hinata put it had a way of getting you legions of unwanted fan-girls.

I mean what fan-girl wouldn't totally be totally dazzled by Naruto's displays of skill. He had completely annihilated Sasuke with his own Jutsu and even fought 4 other boys at the same time in a taijutsu spar once. It was arranged by Mizuki who believed that the 4 boys would be able to beat the Kyubi boy easily, so wasn't he in for a surprise when Naruto not only beat all 4 of the boys but he did it without even breaking a sweat.

It was true this was barely a workout for Naruto, even though the entire class knew how to use the basic taijutsu of the academy there were some of them who never used it. Often opting to fight like brawlers fighters in a street fight instead.

While this type of fighting stood a chance against the academy's fighting stance, it gets completely obliterated by anybody with as much training as Naruto had gone through.

Naruto's skill in taijutsu was heavily based on the Sandaime's bo-staff and Itachi's kenjustu styles. Because both of his teachers never wanted to be entirely dependent on one skill, their styles were actually quite effective with or without their respective weapons.

Because of this Yamato and Kakashi often debated which Naruto was actually the scariest; it often came down to either bo-staff Naruto or katana Naruto. It really came down to if you rather be cut or bruised, but recently to both Yamato and Kakashi's horror Naruto had started combining both styles into one. Truly living up to his nickname of being Konoha's most unpredictable academy student.

But what was truly scary was the fact that the boy had a limitless potential, even after all that had been taught to him he still had the drive to learn more. And regardless of how hard you drove him into the ground Naruto never complained and just got back up ready for more. This type of conviction would make one Might Gai green…. Well greener with envy.

And speaking of Might Gai all this talk between Kakashi and Yamato soon caught his attention, hearing how strong and remarkable their student was made Might Gai awfully envious of his rival and the younger Anbu.

This caused Might Gai to go out and seek out his own student so that he could train him to challenge Naruto. So it wasn't a surprise to anybody when it hadn't even been a week before Gai showed up with his own student, the dead last of this year's senior class a boy named Rock Lee who had undeveloped chakra coils causing him to have great difficulty in casting even the simplest of Ninjutsu and Genjutsu.

But like Naruto what captured Might Gai's attention to the boy was the fact that he was a glutton for hard work and perseverance. And even with all his handicaps the boy showed potential to be a master of taijutsu much like Gai was.

Though to the dismay of Kakashi, Yamato, Naruto and pretty much the rest of Konoha was the attire Rock Lee had adopted. Standing next to Gai was an exact mini replica of him giving the trio their patented nice guy pose. And if nobody said anything Lee could have easily passed for being Gai's son, not like Gai would have minded though.

It was at this point Kakashi had instantly regretting inviting them to their training regime, but like people always say hindsight is 20/20.

Kakashi's eye began twitching violently when seemingly out of nowhere, Gai pull out another green jump suit and said to Naruto.

"YOSH Naruto-san, would you like a pair of jumpsuits that my apprentice and I have already adorned? I must tell you they greatly improve our training and help us in fanning our flames of youth!"

Hearing this Lee immediately ran over to Naruto and began to shake his hand ferociously, "You're the great Uzumaki-Senju, Naruto Gai-sensei has told me so much about! It's a pleasure to meet you, and Gai-sensei is right when he says that these jumpsuits are the most marvelous things in the world! I feel like I could run around Konoha 10 times and not even break a sweat with these on!"

Without giving Naruto a chance to answer, Gai was already in front of him and had attempted to thrust the jumpsuit into Naruto's hand. But before Gai could do anything more an arrow that was spiraling viciously caught the jumpsuit and instantly tore it to shreds.

Standing some 30 meters away was Hinata with her bow in her hand, lowering the bow she walked over and said with a devilishly sweet voice. "As interesting…. As your choice in fashion is Gai-sensei… I don't believe green is a good color for my Naruto-kun….."

While Hinata was pleasantly smiling and what she said might have sounded like a suggestion to some, it was nothing evenly remotely close to that. One look into her eyes and you would know that what she really wanted to say was, "Try to put that thing on my boyfriend and I will kill you…. Painfully."

But Gai being Gai didn't notice this as he was too busy grieving over the loss of the article of clothing…. Sinking to his knees with the remains in his hands, he wept into them with such sorrow that Hinata felt slightly immoral for destroying it.

And Hinata would have continued feeling guilty, had Lee not suddenly walked up to his sensei placing one of his hands on Gai's shoulder while his other hand was held up in front of him in a fist of determination. With tears flowing down his face Lee said with conviction, "Fret not Gai-sensei we will pay our respects to our fallen spandex brother with the sweat from our hard work and blood of our labor."

Gai hearing this dropped the tattered remains of the broken jumpsuit and stood up and faced Lee and said to him with even more tears flowing from his eyes, "Lee you haven't been my student for long but you have already made me so proud, come here my treasured apprentice."

With that the two embraced and thus the world's most feared genjutsu was created in that instant. The causalities that were caused by the sunset and images of waves crashing behind the embracing duo would be sleepless nights for those watching for the kami knows how long.

And after three days Hinata was already at her limit, while Naruto had Kurama inside of him to rejuvenate his body. Hinata wasn't so lucky because every time she closed her eyes for any length of time aside from blinking all she could see was the dammed sunset genjutsu the hugging duo of Rock Lee and Might Gai had cast on them.

This had seriously cut into her cherished Naruto and her nappy time and she was severely annoyed by it, one thing she loved to do during those nappy times was just lay on his chest while slowly drifting off into the land of sleep and inhale his aroma of grass, wood and what she could only guess to be fox, and while she could keep her eyes open when inhaling that aroma she had grown so addicted, the sensation just wasn't the same. She couldn't close her eyes and truly enjoy herself, while letting her sense of smell bathe in his essence and take over her whole body.

So here they were sitting on the patio of one of the gardens in the compound, Naruto stared out into the garden while Hinata sat next to him embracing his arm and resting her tired head onto his shoulders.

And tired might have been an understatement when describing how Hinata Hyuga looked and felt at the moment. Her hair had been hastily done and her kimono unkempt and the faintly black eye bags under her eyes just ever so slightly marred her normally perfect alabaster like skin.

It killed Naruto to see his love like this, he felt so helpless at this moment. After the first night they had asked some doctors to come over to take a look over at Naruto and Hinata to sadly inform them that they had no clue for their…. Unusual symptoms.

Anko had even bought her best friend Kurenai Yuhi to take a look over of them, Anko assumed that because Kurenai was gaining fame as the genjutsu mistress of Konoha than she would find some way to help the two.

But sadly Kurenai had also failed in curing them; she explained that while what they were hit by was close to a genjutsu in nature but it turned out to be something completely different something more complex….. As Kurenai put it, afterwards Anko left in frustration with

Kurenai to drown away her inability to help the two young teens that meant so much to her with sake and dango.

So here they were in the gardens, sitting….. hoping…. that horrid memory turned nightmare would show them mercy and allow them to once again fall asleep in peace, Hinata's eye lids began to droop dangerously low as she rested comfortably on Naruto's shoulder,

"Just…. Maybe….. If I hold on to Naruto-kun tighter I won't get that horrid nightmare… He's just so comfortable."

Just as Hinata was about to nod off she felt a sudden jolt from Naruto who had instantly straightened his back. With eyes wide Naruto turned his head slightly toward Hinata and said, "Hime I know who can help us!" from

"Really Naruto-kun?" Hinata said tiredly while lifting her head slightly from his shoulder.

Naruto flashed her a small smile of reassurance and said, "Positive my Hime, come on let's go."

Naruto than stood up and offered his hand to Hinata to help her up, lifting her up to her own two feet Hinata wobbled slightly from exhaustion. Naruto seeing how tired Hinata was turned around than bent over slightly at the hip and motioned for Hinata to get on his back with his hands.

Usually Hinata wouldn't approve of him carrying her around like he was some sort of servant, but at this moment she couldn't argue with him because of how fatigued she was. She leaned onto his back and wrapped her arms around his neck than hopped slightly to provide him the momentum to lift her up.

She once again laid her head on his shoulder, but let out a squeak of excitement when Naruto had accidently grabbed her butt with his hands, she knew he didn't purposely do it…. Not that she would have minded anyway, but being basically a sack of potatoes on his back Naruto had to properly adjust Hinata so that she was more comfortable and easier to carry, and in doing so he had accidently grabbed onto…. "Those soft plump and perfect pillows of….." he thought for a moment before….

"WHAT THE HELL KURAMA!" Naruto roared in his mind

Kurama just snickered at Naruto, even with his ability to heal and provide energy to Naruto. There was still from time to time a lack of concentration and willpower from being deprived of sleep, easily allowing Kurama to nudge some of the more… perverted thoughts into Naruto's head.

Kurama had been planning his grand scheme for a long time and this was the night he was going to put it into action, when Naruto's concentration would waver Kurama would push the idea into his head that if they wanted to get something out of their head or something to distract them… then mating would be one of the best ways to do it.

But now seeing Naruto finding a way to actually get some proper sleep, Kurama cursed his container for being so clever.

Hinata shifted her head forward a little to see what was wrong with Naruto, he seemed to have frozen up with his hand still in the same position on her ass, though Hinata swore he had tightened his grip around her cheeks slightly. "Is he savoring in this moment?" Hinata perversely thought.

Just as Hinata was about to fantasize about what else Naruto was thinking of she heard a growl come from Naruto's throat. Than Naruto's hands shifted from her rear to her thighs much to Hinata's disappointment, turning to face Hinata Naruto said in an apologetic tone, "I'm sorry for that Hime please don't think lowly of me for that."

Hinata blushed but hid it by burrowing into the crook of Naruto's neck and said softly to him, "It's okay Naruto-kun… I don't mind if it's you."

A trickle of blood dripped out from his nose as his willpower was slowly but surely falling to Kurama's influence. He made his best attempts at refortifying his mental barriers before taking off with Hinata on his back toward the Yamanaka residence in order to purge their minds of the horrors they had seen.

Arriving in front of the flower shop Naruto saw a huge long line of tired exhausted people already standing there waiting to meet with members of the Yamanaka clan, apparently Naruto and Hinata weren't the only ones who were suffering from Gai and Lee's S-classed Kinjutsu.

Naruto just sighed and whispered to the exhausted Hinata on his back, "I guess we just have to wait in line Hime."

"Uh huh…." Hinata just quietly mumbled while rubbing her face on Naruto's shoulder trying to stay awake.

Just as they were about to walk to the back of the line, the two of them heard somebody call out. "Naruto-kun! Hinata!"

Turning around they saw Ino waving and running toward them, reaching them Ino asked. "Wow guessing by how tired Hinata looks, she got hit by that strange genjutsu as well?"

"Yeah, we haven't slept in 3 days. I fear if this last any longer me and Hinata-hime's sanity will soon be called into question." Naruto said with a slight shrug.

Ino turned her head around a few times to see if anybody was listening to them, then Ino said in a whispered to Naruto. "Meet me behind the store in like 2 minutes. Theirs a delivery entrance in the back."

1. Then Ino said in a louder voice so others might hear it. "Well I'll see you guys later, shame you two don't have time to wait."

Naruto watched as Ino headed back inside the store than headed in the opposite direction, making it look like he was headed back to the Hyuga compound. Once he had turned the corner and out of sight of the people waiting on the line, he hopped up onto a roof than stealthy snuck his way back over the roof tops toward the Yamanaka flower shop.

After a few Kurama infused leaps over the roof tops of various stores, Naruto landed softly on top of the roof of the Yamanaka flower store he quickly checked up on Hinata who had tightened her grip to almost vice like during their little roof top adventure. Then he hopped down toward the back where Ino was waiting for him. Ino led them into the packed store which was filled with people ranging from civilians to Shinobi and the occasion Anbu.

It didn't help that there were only around 8 Yamanaka's available skilled enough and licensed to actually sort through another Konoha citizens mind to extract the memory. But also after driving through 2-3 minds even the most skilled of the clan had to take a short break to refocus their mind and replenish their own chakra reserves.

And while this was extremely troublesome for them, some good did come out of all of this. Because normally a licensed Yamanaka's couldn't charge somebody money to have their memories fixed or erased if such memory either was a threat to one's life or interfered with their profession. And Might Gai and Lee's kinjutsu definitely fit in one if not both of those categories. Sort of like a doctors Hippocratic Oath.

But Inochi was able to get around this rule by implementing a special rule in the flower shop for the next 3 days. Basically he asked that anybody who entered the store must buy something before they left. So now he was able to gain some compensation from having his clan members exhausted and occupied.

Sneaking past the storefront and up the stairs to where the Yamanaka clan household was, Ino led them to her room which while was not as big and extravagant as Hinata, it was still quite lovely and fitting for the Yamanaka heiress.

"Lay her down over there." Ino said as she pointed toward her bed. Naruto walked over to the bed and allowed Hinata to slide off his back onto the bed, sitting on the corner he gently stroked her cheek as she softly smiled back and mumbled. "Naruto-kun."

While Ino would have loved to watch this romantic scene she knew she had a job to do. Ino sat on top of her bed on her knees facing Hinata and prepared her mind reading jutsu, but before she used it she said to the both of them, "Just know I'm not good enough to completely remove the memory but I can change it… to something more….well something less revolting…"

Naruto just nodded and Hinata's smile widened slightly, seeing this Ino just said, "Mind Reading Technique."

Ino opened her eyes to find herself in Hinata's mindscape, which turned out to be a large well lit chamber; the walls were covered with portraits. Some of them consisted of her mother, father, sister and a few other occasional Hyuga's that Ino didn't know. But what dominated the walls of Hinata's mindscape was Naruto just one after another were portraits of Naruto ranging from them hugging and kissing to one of them being really…. Really, really intimate and

inappropriate for Ino to be looking at. But judging by the fact that Hinata looked older and different in that portrait it was most likely just a fantasy's that Hinata had but seeing it still made Ino blush and wonder, if Naruto and herself would ever get close enough to partake in such acts. Well she could hope…..

Deciding to not invade any further into Hinata's privacy and what else she had in mind for Naruto when they grew older, Ino made her way toward the middle of the room where a large floating light blue crystal orb hovered a few feet off the ground. This was basically the central memory hub everybody had, while some might others might look different or have defenses to protect it, the concept of it was still pretty much the same.

Ino infused her hands with chakra than placed them onto the orb about a feet away from each other, immediately the area between her two hands change color and became sort of like a television. Ino slowly rewound Hinata's memories until she got to the part where the two spandex wearing Shinobi were hugging and the giant sunset and waves were crashing in the background. Ino narrowed her eyes and the sight and felt like throwing up slightly, and she probably would have had she not been clever enough and only made the screen so big so she didn't have to see the scene in all its detail and glory.

Just like she expected as she pumped her chakra into the orb she couldn't remove the memory, but she could change certain details of it. While removing the sunset and waves crashing in the background was completely out of Ino's league she was able to change the characters of this memory. Slowly but surely the two spandex wearing Shinobi changed and one became Naruto and the other became Hinata who were now sitting on the beach holding each other's hand as they admired the sunset.

Lifting her hands off of the orb Ino let out a sigh of exhaustion, had this been before Ino started her new training she would have never been able to even activate the orb let alone change the memory. But now with her slightly larger reserves of chakra she only felt slight fatigue from the jutsu.

Putting her hands together in a seal Ino said release and when she opened her eyes, she was back outside in her room. Looking down at Hinata Ino discovered she was already fast asleep and even had a slight smile content on her face.

Naruto had noticed this as well and asked Ino with a smile, "I'm guessing you must have succeeded in your endeavors to make her so happy."

Ino just giggled slightly and said, "Yep, now Naruto-kun I believe it's your turn."

Naruto just smiled and nodded but before he could lie down on the bed, Ino had grabbed his head and gently directed it onto her lap so now Ino could stare down onto Naruto's face.

Naruto with one eyebrow slightly raised ask, "Oh so I get special treatment?"

Ino giggled and gently caressed Naruto's cheeks, "Only for you Naruto-kun."

1. Mind Reading Technique."

Entering into Naruto's mindscape, Ino was surprised at the state of his mindscape. There was barely any light inside and the only light emanated dimly from Naruto's mindscape orb which oddly was covered in tree roots and vines.

Ino walked up toward the orb and tried to shift some of the vines and roots only for them to lash out at her, in shock Ino couldn't move as she watched one of the branches stab out at her and stop just millimeters from piercing into her head.

She shook vigorously in fear knowing that if she was killed in Naruto's mindscape, the consequences could be dire, she could forever be stuck inside Naruto's mind stuck in a limbo, or worse kill both of them.

She heard somebody walking behind her than a familiar voice asked, "Are you okay Ino-chan?"

Ino whipped around and saw Naruto standing behind her instantly she threw herself into his arms and latched onto him. Naruto soft stroked her long blonde hair and said apologetically, "I'm sorry about that Ino-chan, I forgot to inform you that my grandfather had taught me the art of protecting my mind from intruders and genjutsus."

That was a lie, Kurama had reverted Naruto's mindscape back to the damp cold sewer in order to hide some of Naruto's more secretive memories. This included himself, Hashirama and the truth about Naruto's lineage. Hashirama's vines around the orb were just a second layer of defense thrown in.

Seeing Ino still slightly frightened Naruto said, "I think we should leave Ino, do you mind releasing the jutsu?"

Ino just nodded against Naruto's chest and put her hands together to form the release sign.

Back outside Naruto's mindscape Ino shivered slightly from her stroll through Naruto's head. Than with a sigh she said, "I'm sorry Naruto-kun for not helping you with that memory."

Naruto just smiled and said, "Well you were able to help Hina-hime at least, and I'm grateful for that. It pained me to see her so exhausted."

Ino leaned her face closer to Naruto's who was still lying on her lap and asked him, "So do I get my reward now?"

Naruto just smirked as he raised his head so his lips softly met hers. Ino squealed into Naruto's lips, this was definitely a dream come true for her. She would have never imagined she would be kissing the boy with the biggest fan-club in the whole academy, "screw that why am I even thinking those fan-girls, I'm just going to savor this." Ino thought happily. As she pressed harder into Naruto's lips

After a minute Naruto lowered his head back on top her lap and just gave her a wink, Ino blushed slightly then said, "Just to let you know… I like my rewards in multiple small packages."

Naruto just chuckled and answered, "If you wish Ino-chan."

Ino just pouted and crossed her arms across her chest while she glared down at Naruto, "I want to be called Hime too!"

Naruto just smirked and shook his head at Ino's antics than said, "If you say so Flower-hime,"

Ino scowled slightly but shrugged and said, "Sigh I guess that will do for now."

Naruto allowed a few hours for Hinata to sleep, before carefully waking her up. Knowing that if he did it too forcefully she would unconsciously retaliate and a sleeping Hinata wasn't someone to mess with.

But Naruto had long discovered how to wake her up without getting possibly maimed, and that was by planting soft kisses on her lips and whispering soothing thoughts into her ears while throwing in some not so pg-13 phrases.

This sought to quickly awaken the Hyuga heiress while also causing her to blush up a storm, Naruto gave her a quick soft chaste kiss than said while rubbing the back of her hands with his thumbs, "Hime we should go you can continue sleeping when we get home, I believe we have intruded on Ino-chan's bed long enough."

Once again Naruto carried Hinata on his back, though she was slightly hesitant this time. Saying how that she had gotten some sleep she would be fine walking back. But secretly she loved being carried by Naruto for it allowed her to be so close to him and it just made her feel more like the princess he kept saying she was.

Saying their goodbye's to Ino they snuck back out the flowershop which was still packed even though it was almost 9 pm and by the looks of the line in front of the store, the Yamanaka's were going to be in for a long night.

After returning back to the Hyuga compound, Naruto set Hinata who had fallen asleep during the trip home softly on their bed. Then slowly and quietly left the room to find something for Hinata and him to eat, they hadn't eaten anything since lunch and Naruto assumed that. Hinata would be quite hungry when she woke up.

Walking into the main dining hall which was also being used by a few other Hyuga members, Naruto felt something light jump onto his back and arms wrap around his neck her voice confirmed it was the 7 year old Hanabi who was rocking back and forth on Naruto's back while giggling.

Naruto grabbed onto Hanabi's legs so she wouldnt fall and asked with a cheerful tone, "How are you doing Hanabi-chan?"

Hanabi answered back in an equally cheerful tone, "I saw you give Onee-chan a piggyback ride earlier and I got jealous, so I want one too."

Hiashi who was also in the large dining room having a snack with Hitomi gave Hanabi a disapproving frown and said, "Hanabi Naruto-san isn't some servant you can just demand piggyback rides from."

Hanabi pouted but it was Hitomi who said to Hiashi, "Lighten up Hiashi-kun, I remember you used to offer me piggyback rides all the time when we were younger."

Hiashi blushed at that statement from his wife, he did indeed often offer them to Hitomi and to his everlasting joy she would every once in a while accept.

For aside from getting to spend time with Hitomi and being so close to her, Hiashi had more…. As one would put it perverted reasons for doing it, because other than from having her chest pressed so snuggly against his back but he would also have the chance to feel up Hitomi's shapely legs.

Hiashi's inner self blushed while having a slight nosebleed at reminiscing the feeling of those soft… milky…..silky defined legs.

While on the subject of Hiashi's memories while he was quite embarrassed of some of the things he had said and done to gain Hitomi's attention, would he change a single thing about it…. HELL NO!

All the hours of serenading, courting and secret and not so secret love letters he had written, they were all worth it when you considered that he had bagged the most beautiful desired and compassionate women in all the elemental countries. And also putting into consideration that even after all these years and foolish mistakes he had made that had hurt her and his family Hitomi had still forgiven him and their sex life… was more vibrant than it had ever been well at least lately it has been.

Seeing Hiashi still frown in slight disapproval, Hitomi smirked and figured she hadn't messed with her husband in a while, "Oh do hurry Hanabi-chan, Since Naruto is offering piggyback rides I want a turn too!"

A few of the other female Hyugas in the dining room perked up at these words.

On the other hand hearing this made Hiashi extremely envious, he dropped his chopstick he was using and turned to his wife and said to her with conviction, "No need to bother Naruto my love…. I'm sure

I can do an equal if not better job than he can, so there's no need for you to intrude in Hanabi's time with him. I shall give you a ride that will put Naruto-san's to shame."

Throughout the dining hall multiple snickers and giggles were heard from the other members of the clan that just so happened to be there as well.

While Hiashi was clearly embarrassed for his mistake in announcing that so loudly, he was able to still save himself from blushing and falling apart into a mess due to his years of experience of keeping a stone face in all adversities.

But he still had to give them a slight glare to remind them to not tell anybody else about what they had just heard; Hiashi didn't need the elders or the Hyuga council to know about this.

Hitomi just laid her head on Hiashi's chest and whispered with anticipation dripping in her voice in Hiashi's ear, "I'll hold you too that….. Horse-ashi-kun."

Hiashi gulped at this, with this he knew he was in for a long night once again his wife had played on his ego like a flute, and now she had exactly what she wanted "him" right in the palm of her hand!

Hitomi stood up and walked over to Naruto who was idly talking to Hanabi as she laid on his back, Hitomi asked "Do you think you can tuck Hanabi into bed tonight and make sure she goes to sleep Naruto-kun?"

Hanabi huffed slightly than said with slight annoyance, "I don't need to be tucked in Kaasan I'm 7 now, and I'm a Hyuga we don't get tucked in. And it's so early anyway I want to play with Naruto-kun some more!"

"Oh…. So you think you're too prestigious and too regal to be tucked in and you feel that because you are 7 you can skip your bedtime?" Hitomi said with an amused look to Hanabi.

Hanabi thought about it for a moment than said, "Yes…. Yes I do."

Raising an eyebrow Hitomi said, "Fine Naruto-kun please place Hanabi back on the floor, since she fancies herself such a noble and matured Hyuga. Allow her royal highness to walk back to her room by herself."

Hanabi instantly tensed then hugged Naruto's neck closer than stuttered out, "Wait…. Why? Neesan gets to hang out with Naruto and get piggyback rides, and she's old than me why can't I, you're playing favorites aren't you mother?"

"On the contrary your majesty, I do not intrude on your sister's time with Naruto because she is humble and cares very little about her titles or other materialistic values. And you accuse me of playing favorites your grace? If I do recall your father is the one who spoils you the most. So tell me Lady Hanabi will you listen to your mother and go to bed like a good girl?" Hitomi responded with a slight mocking tone to her words.

Hanabi let out a groan and said submissively, "Yes….. mother."

"Excellent!" Naruto and Hanabi sweat dropped at Hitomi's 180, "And I can trust that you will escort my daughter to her room Naruto-kun?"

Naruto just nodded which caused Hitomi to squeal slightly and give a soft kiss to Hanabi's forehead than Naruto's forehead, "You have my gratitude Naruto-kun, I would do it myself but….. I have business to take care of tonight."

With that Hitomi turned and walked toward the exit of the dining hall, but before she left she turned toward Hiashi then made a come here curling motion with her index finger than left the room, Hiashi seeing this instantly complied to his wives demand but not before tripping and stumbling slightly. Luckily for him nobody aside from Naruto and Hanabi saw it.

Quickly striding out of the dining hall Hiashi said to himself with a sigh, "And to think I am the clan head of the strongest clan in Konoha and one of the most influential and wealthiest men in all of fire nation. Yet I am a servant to my own wife."

He reached inside his sleeve and took out a brown book called "Guide to surviving your wife by I.S.C" Saying a small prayer to it before placing it back inside is sleeve. "Whoever you are I.S.C, I hope that by your divine abilities I will survive tonight with my sanity intact."

Far away inside the Yamanaka, Nara and Akimichi compounds the three clan head sneezed all at once, and all 3 had one thought in their mind. "We pray for which ever poor soul who calls to us tonight."

Back inside the Hyuga compound, Hiashi stood outside the door to his room and took a deep breath and did a few warm ups stretches with his arm, legs and back. Than with a smirk he asked himself, "You're a fool Hiashi Hyuga for even complaining about your wife, what man wouldn't give up everything just to have one day in your life."

With his conviction strengthened and his confidence at its peak, Hiashi slid the door to his room open and entered to confront whatever his wife had in store for him tonight.
