This chapter does take from Plus' youtube series of What if Hinata was on Team 7. That does not mean I'm truly building up to that scenario since there are other factors at play. As things stand, I'm fairly certain this version of Hinata will still end up on Team 8, but that might change by the time I get to the team assignments. Just stay posted on that.
Konohagakure, Morning…
(3 Years Since Nine Tails & Janemba) (Goku & Turles 3 years old/Raditz 8 years old)
Raditz, Goku, and Turles were growing as young boys tend to. Raditz had started taking on more traits of his mother while Goku and Turles looked like spitting images of their father; however, Turles' skin has shifted to be slightly darker.
All three wore gis with Raditz and Goku's being blue while Turles decided on purple. Raditz had attained the rank of Genin not long ago. Today, he was home, so the family decided to take a walk through the village. It wasn't long before they noticed the businesses were painted.
Though they did note the villagers around did not seem happy, the laughter of a boy drew their attention. "Naruto Uzumaki!"
Everyone looked at a sign where a boy with blond hair and blue eyes, as well as three whisker marks on either side of his face, stood covered in paint. If that wasn't enough to tell you who was responsible for this, the fact that he also held a bucket and paint brush certainly was.
"That's me!" The boy continued before leaping into the air. "One day, I'll be Hokage!"
He landed on a roof before running along them, and almost everyone ran after him. Only Gohan, Goku, Raditz, and Turles refrained.
"Grandpa, why are people so mad at that boy?" Goku asked confused. "I mean, I know he shouldn't have painted on all their buildings, but they seemed madder than you did that time I painted on the walls of our home."
"Hm, is that all you noticed about him Goku?" Gohan asked.
"I've noticed him around the village a few times, yet no one seems to like him much." Goku voiced before looking at his grandpa. "Did he do something bad?"
"Tell me, my boy." Gohan deflected the question. "How do you feel about him?"
"He doesn't seem bad." Goku responded truthfully. "He honestly seemed kind of quiet until pulling this off today." He smiled. "To me, he seems like a fun person."
"In that case, ignore how anyone else sees him." Gohan smiled encouragingly. "Treat that boy how you wish, and that goes for any of you boys."
"Alright Grandpa." Goku nodded. "The next time I see him, I'm going to talk to him."
"If anyone has a problem with it, they can deal with me." Raditz muttered.
"As for me, that boy seems too annoying for my taste." Turles walked on. "If you want to befriend him, be my guest."
Turles didn't have anything against Naruto. He just didn't think they'd mesh well, but given what they've seen, he assumed Goku would do just fine. Honestly, more power to him. That said, Turles would knock some heads if anyone gave his twin a hard time over it.
Forest: Evening…
As Goku grew, he became more adventurous. The boy simply wanted to explore every inch of his home and was often drawn to the forest. As he ran through it this evening, he smelt something good in the air and ran towards it.
Naruto had made a fire and used it to cook a whole load of fish he caught. The blond was eating from one of them as thoughts of what people often said about him filtered through his mind. He often wished they didn't, but he could stop thinking about it at times like this.
"Hey, is that the boy?"
"Yes, he's the one…"
"It's that kid again, I wish he would just die!"
"He's a monster, stay away from him."
Naruto closed his eyes as he tried to stop thinking about it.
"Hey, do you know why people avoid you!?" Naruto opened his eyes and turned to see Goku standing atop a small hill nearby. "My grandpa won't tell me?"
"Who are you?" Naruto asked.
"Hey, I'm Goku Sarutobi." Goku greeted with a smile before smelling the air and catching sight of the cooking fish. "Do you mind if I come eat some of that food with you? It smells great!"
"Yeah, sure…" Naruto agreed in surprise.
Goku ran over and took a seat on the stump next to him. "Alright!" He snagged one of the fish. "Thanks a bunch."
Naruto looked at him, stunned. "Aren't you afraid to be near me?"
"Why should I?" Goku looked at him with a smile. "One day, I'll be the strongest Shinobi in the world, and I'll use all that power just as my grandpa does, to protect everyone in the village."
"Strongest Shinobi?" Naruto asked before becoming agitated. "You mean Hokage!? I'm Naruto Uzumaki, and I'm the one who'll be Hokage!"
"I've seen Great Uncle Hiruzen at work, and I don't think that's for me." Goku smiled at him. "You can have the position while I'll be the strongest."
Naruto stared at the boy for a moment before their stomachs growled at the same time making them laugh together. They then wolfed down a fish which started them on a wonderful dinner together. The first of many between two friends.
Konoha: Roughly a Month Later…
It was snowing, and Naruto was currently alone since Goku's grandfather had needed him. As such, the young boy was on a swing, in his winter clothing, when something caught his attention down the road. There were three older boys standing before a girl with a fair complexion, featureless lavender eyes, and dark blue hair in a hime-cut.
"If you're really a Hyuga, show us your Byakugan."
"But if you won't, then don't even look at us."
The girl was starting to tear up and fold in on herself from their remarks.
"Yeah, your eyes are creepy."
"I bet you're some kind of monster, aren't you?"
"Yeah, a Byakugan monster."
As the boys laughed, she began to cry openly, and Naruto had seen enough. "Hey, cut it out!"
He ran over drawing the other's attention.
"Look at the shrimp."
"Who are you?"
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto declared firmly. "I'm the one who will be the future Hokage."
"Oh, the future Hokage?"
The three boys were amused as they approached him.
"Come on, are you stupid?"
The boys had a good laugh at that.
"I'll show you." Naruto declared, looking around.
Ever since he started hanging with Goku, Naruto spent a little less time looking into Ninjutsu. He'd read up on a few, with the Clone Jutsu catching his interest; however, the guy simply hadn't had any time to practice it. Rather than attempt it, his gaze settled on a nearby rock.
While the boys were wrapping up their laughter, Naruto grasped and threw it, just like he had many prior in the forest. The rock struck the leader on the head. He was still conscious, but the sudden force was enough to see the boy falling to his back.
With their attention now on him, Naruto slid his goggles over his eyes. "You three must not have heard me." He grinned while firming himself up, just knowing these boys weren't about to be happy with what he did. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki, and I will be the Hokage. Believe it!"
By this point, the leader recovered and wordlessly rushed Naruto before punching him in the face as recompence. The fist stung and made the blond's nose bleed while his body threatened to fall. Then, what Goku told him rang through his mind.
"One day, I'll be the strongest Shinobi in the world, and I'll use all that power just as my grandpa does, to protect everyone in the village."
Naruto found the motivation to dig in his heels and prevent himself from going down. He rode the momentum from the sudden stop to push his upper body forward and land a strong haymaker across the lead boy's face. There was enough power behind it to lay the boy on his back again.
"You'll have to try harder than that to knock me down." Naruto declared.
The other boys were stunned that the strongest among them had been sent to his back twice while said leader was angry as he sat up.
"What are you two doing? Get him!"
That seemed to snap the boys out of it as they charged Naruto; however, neither were nearly as fast as the lead boy. As such, the blond had a much easier time keeping up with their movements. He rushed the closer boy and managed to wrap his arms around him.
This surprised the pair before Naruto managed a spin and pushed him into the second boy. This had the added effect of toppling the pair into the path of the lead boy who had no time to course correctly. As such, he ended up tripping over the pair and hit the ground.
Naruto took full advantage of this as he jumped at the pile of boys and began wildly swinging his fist for all they were worth. At this point, the older boys were angry enough to fight back, but it also made them rather uncoordinated.
As a result, it appeared like four boys beating down on each other rather than three older boys beating down on a younger one together. Eventually, the flailing fists came to a stop as all four boys were dirty, battered, and bloody. None of that was the reason for the fight's end.
It had ended because the three older boys were laid out unconscious while Naruto managed to stand. On top of the prior things, he was also exhausted and panting. The girl stared on awestruck, upset by the violence, and worried for Naruto's wellbeing.
Naruto slowly made his way over to Hinata before wordlessly giving her his messy and bloodied scarf. The boy then moved past her, doing his best to maintain himself, only to ultimately collapse face first into a nearby snow pile.
No matter what she was currently feeling about that fight, the fact remained that this boy dug in his feet and fought tenaciously on her behalf. She couldn't leave him, so the girl began pulling his body along with the intention of getting him some help.
Some Time Later…
Hinata had been trudging onward in the direction of the buildings while doing her best to ensure Naruto's body didn't scrap too badly along the ground. Despite the distance she's made, the young Hyuga still had a way to go before even reaching where the buildings began.
"Lady Hinata!"
Fortunately, a Branch member of the Hyuga Clan, dressed in the attire of your standard Leaf Shinobi, had found her. This gave the girl a sense of relief since it meant Naruto could get help sooner rather than later.
Hyuga Compound: Main Residence, Night…
Hinata managed to convince the Branch member to get Naruto to the hospital after he took her home. She was now sitting within her room staring at the scarf that boy gave her.
"Could I possibly grow strong like that boy, Naruto?" Hinata contemplated.
Not in the typical definition of strength. That was part of it, but a larger part was the ability to endure. Even as you're outmatched, and your body is past finished. Eventually, she got it in her to approach her father, Hiashi, who was in the main room of the mansion.
"Father, may I speak with you?" Hinata asked.
"You may." Hiashi answered.
"Thank you." Hinata stated. "I was wondering what you knew about that boy, Naruto. Also, I was hoping to visit and thank him for what he did today."
"If Hinata is already bullied for being a Hyuga, then associating with a Jinchuriki will do her no favors." Hiashi had nothing against Naruto, but he couldn't encourage any good will from his daughter given such circumstances. "Besides, she should focus on her training."
"Father?" Hinata asked.
"Naruto is an orphan with a behavioral issue, so the villagers are quick to anger with him." Hiashi answered simply. "Besides, the fact that it was Hyuga who got him medical attention should be enough in the way of thanks."
Hinata was dismayed but did her best not to show it. "Y-Yes father."
Konoha Hospital: Morning…
Naruto had woken up not long into the morning, and while he felt sore all over, it wasn't anything to the point he couldn't be discharged. Upon reaching the entrance, he was met by Hiruzen who had arrived to square away the bills. The pair now walked towards the exit.
"I was surprised to hear you held your own against first year academy students Naruto." Hiruzen voiced. "The fact that you did shows an immense potential that can be honed to one day make you a powerful Shinobi."
"Thanks gramps." Naruto grinned at the praise. "I'll work hard to be a truly great Shinobi. Who knows, I might just work so hard that I'll take your job out of the academy."
Hyuga Compound: A Few Days Later…
Hinata was training with her father while Hiashi's twin brother, Hizashi, and his son watched on tensely. Hizashi, leader of the Branch Family, looked like his brother while Neji looked a lot like him. They were soon joined by Raditz who had returned from a mission earlier that day.
After the Nine Tails and Janemba were sealed, Hiashi had been among many who reported what happened that night. Like Gohan, he had written about how Bardock was fighting Janemba and ensured he outlined that the man had saved his life.
He then took that information to the clan and utilized it to ensure one of Bardock's biggest frustrations would not plague his children. No matter how stubborn the elders were, what Bardock had done that night earned him that much.
Of course, Hiashi pushed for more since the elders had utilized himself to frustrate that man to no end over Gine. Essentially, it boiled down to giving anyone from Bardock's family line training, no strings attached, should they seek it.
When Raditz found out about this, he accepted. As the eldest of Bardock, he wanted to take the brunt of expectation away from his younger brothers. He would be the proof that lineage lived on, strong as ever, in hopes that they would not have to bear that weight.
It did help that he wanted to be strong like his parents. While knew from his mother that you didn't need conventional strength to achieve that, he saw it as part of his path to attaining even a fraction of the strength his parents had. Like the two branch members, he observed the training.
As usual, even though Hiashi held back, the training Hinata endured was difficult. She was constantly knocked and worn down; however, the head of the Main Family ordered her to stand every time. His daughter did just that, yet it took over a minute causing Hiashi to grow irritated.
The fact that Hinata was huffing and puffing pathetically didn't help in any regard. It was to the point he couldn't trust himself to hold back any longer. No matter how anything looked, or how he felt in that moment, truly injuring his daughter was the last thing Hiashi wanted.
"That's enough." Hiashi declared. "Training is over for the day."
Hizashi breathed a sigh of relief since his niece wasn't usually this tenacious. Normally, she would have given up long before this point or even broke down crying.
"While she is sniveling and wet eyed, it's clear she's been digging deeper than ever." Hizashi noted. "Naruto Uzumaki's heroics must have had a truly profound effect on her. She's motivated, yet Hiashi doesn't seem nearly as impressed as I am."
The truth is, even before today, Hizashi felt his brother was failing Hinata's training. He knew a lot was expected of the Main Branch's next heir, but with the way things were going, Hinata would never truly bloom.
"As a Branch Member, it is not my place to voice any of this." Hizashi was agitated; however, it wasn't at his niece nor his own brother. "In a way, we're all just victims of this oppressive, Hyuga system that forces us into these casts."
Upon thinking this, pride and respect for his niece sparked within the older Hyuga's heart at just what Hinata had done. It was small, yet she effectively bore everything today with tenacity befitting any Clan Head. By this point, Hiashi was already walking away from his daughter.
"Father, give me another drill." Hinata managed.
This stopped Hiashi, in his tracks, at the door to the mansion. "You're too weak to go any further." He opened the door. "We'll continue tomorrow."
He then entered the mansion and closed the door behind himself. Once he was gone, Hinata collapsed to her knees and cried as she worked to catch her breath. Getting back up in the face of her usual training had been hard.
Her father's unimpressed glare only made it doubly so. Even through this, she felt as though something had been accomplished. Rather than her giving in, it was her father who ended the training while she was still willing to continue.
"I win." Hinata whispered to herself.
Soon, she felt a hand pat her head and looked up to see it was her uncle who had a warm smile on his face. While this was highly inappropriate for a Branch Member, Hizashi could care less at that moment. Right now, he was thinking of his role in his son and niece's lives
"Congratulations, Hinata." Hizashi voiced. "You did well today, but I believe you can do better. If you would like, I'd be willing to offer some constructive criticism on your form."
Hinata went wide eyed before nodding excitedly. Her uncle spoke with a kind, warm tone that reminded her of the boy in the woods. At this point, she felt he could tell her anything, and she'd take it just fine.
"Neji and Raditz, could you come here to act out what I instruct as a way to help Hinata?" Hizashi called out.
Neji was a bit surprised. "Uh, yes father."
Raditz nodded. "I'd be glad to."
Hizashi got to it by having them go through everything brother had attempted to push Hinata through. As the pair moved through the Gentle Fist, he instructed Hinata where she went wrong and how she could be better. When given in this context, Hinata understood better.
Konoha: Months Later, Day…
Konoha and Kumo have been in conflict for years, with the threat of true war between the two villages on the horizon. Today, Konoha would welcome an ambassador, and they would sign an official peace treaty which would effectively squash the fighting before it got worse.
A crowd gathered as Hiruzen stood at the gate awaiting the ambassador. The third did not have to wait long as the ambassador, Head Ninja of Kumogakure, arrived with two aides. Tao Pai, the Head Ninja of the Hidden Cloud, was a man worthy of the title.
In the Third Great War, he earned it through his fighting style which targeted a person's pressure points. While not as devastating as a Hyuga's Gentle Fist, he couldn't explode organs, the ability to effectively immobilize your opponent could not be undersold.
Tao was an average heighted man with beady eyes, a pointed nose, thin mustache, and black hair tied into a braided ponytail. He wore a slightly altered Cloud Shinobi uniform. While most of it was standard, the top had been replaced by a grey and white men's long coat.
His companions were unknown to Hiruzen meaning they likely did not have much, if any, renown to their name. Given Tao's status and strength, they likely suited the role they needed to just fine. Ambassador Tao stopped at the gate and respectfully bowed.
"I welcome you and your companions to Konoha, ambassador." Hiruzen greeted.
"Quite." Tao stood and put his arms behind his back. "We receive your welcome."
The crowd cheered as Hiruzen led the party into the village. Eventually, the progression entered the tower where the final negotiations would take place. Once everything was ironed out, the peace treaty was signed by all parties involved.
Hyuga Compound: Hinata's Room, Night…
A figure managed to slip inside the compound and entered Hinata's room. They snatched the young heiress from her bed waking the girl. As the figure moved to knock her out by targeting her pressure points, Hinata struck with a startled, unguided gentle fist strike.
It hit dead center where the figure's right kidney was and blew it apart. The figure howled in absolute agony while dropping Hinata as they collapsed to the ground. Their face covering fell off revealing himself to be none other than Tao Pai.
It was not long at all before Hiashi burst into his daughter's room. Between the writhing Cloud Ninja and his startled daughter, the Clan Head choose to secure the latter. The Hyuga Shinobi that arrived after were the ones to secure the former, taking him into custody.
Hokage Tower: Morning…
Hiashi had been summoned by the Hokage to discuss the attempted kidnapping of his daughter. He hoped the Hokage would give him the right to decide the fate of the Cloud's ambassador. He already knew his choice would be to let the man rot in their jail.
Death might have been something he'd have doled out had he came across the man with his daughter in hand, but that would have been a decision made in the heat of the moment. Now that he was removed from it, his calmer head prevailed.
"Death would be too quick a punishment." Haishi entered the office and came to stand before Hiruzen's desk. "You summoned me, Lord Hokage?"
It was best to let the Hokage tell him why he was here rather going with his assumed hope.
"Indeed, I did." Hiruzen smiled. "Your daughter is being praised throughout the village as a prodigy and hero." He nodded. "Rightly so as she single handedly snuffed out a devious plot by a foreign land."
What went unsaid was that this gave Hiruzen an immense level of bargaining power. That was omitting the fact that Tao Pai had just been given over to the Torture and Interrogation Force. As well as the fact his companions had been apprehended and handed over to.
No matter how hardy a Shinobi any of them were, Hiruzen was confident Inochi, Ibiki, and their men would get all the information they had. With it, he could levy a more advantageous treaty. Even if this had been the Raikage's plan, the man wouldn't want to admit that openly.
"Due to all that Hinata Hyuga has accomplished, I believe she has earned a special honor." Hiruzen continued. "I am willing to instate your daughter as a Genin."
Hiashi was stunned since he wasn't expecting this, yet pride was quick to enter his being. Though, both emotions were tempered as he knew his daughter wasn't truly at the level of a Genin. Sure, the rest of the clan would love this to be so.
After all, the Uchiha had their prodigious talents that had ascended ranks quickly and would likely continue to do as such. Truth be told, had this been Neji rather than Hinata, he'd have fully consented immediately given that boy, in his eyes, was already at the rank and could climb fast.
Hiashi couldn't deny this for Hinata, and while he hoped she'd deny it, the choice was ultimately hers. "I shall head back to the compound and speak with her at once."
"Of course." Hiruzen nodded. "I look forward to hearing what she decides."
Hyuga Compound: Mansion
Hiashi had found his daughter and brought her to the main room where he filled her in on what was said at the tower. Once he was done, Hiashi became silent as he was working on just what to say to his daughter. He wouldn't deny this to her, but he wanted his thoughts to be heard.
Before he could speak, Hinata quietly said, "I wish to refuse the Hokage's offer." This shocked Hiashi. "I know this is an honor, but it wouldn't feel right." She shook her head. "Stopping that man was an accident."
"Looks like I had nothing to worry about." Hiashi smiled as the words he needed to say now came to him much easier. "If you do not want to accept the offer, you can merely go up and thank the village on behalf of the Hyuga. It is a simple act that would make the Hyuga happy."
Hinata smiled. "I think that will work well, father."
Konoha: Days Later, Morning…
The whole village gathered for a ceremony. Everyone, from the young to the old, turned up to see what they assumed to be a young prodigy taking her place alongside figures like Itachi and Shisui Uchiha. Naturally, this meant Naruto and Goku were in attendance among the crowd.
Goku was left with a sense of excitement that there were strong people his age around the village. First his friend ends up beating three first year academy students himself and now a girl their age was strong enough to overcome a powerful Shinobi.
It made the boy glad his grandpa was training him. Granted, he hasn't been faced with these situations like Naruto and Hinata. Still, he hoped he was on their level, and if he wasn't, the young Sarutobi would work to be before surpassing them.
The Hokage soon stepped out onto the stage. "Citizens of Konoha." His voice drew everyone's attention, silencing any discussions that might have been happening. "As the Uchiha Clan proved themselves before, a young Hyuga has done the same.
Hinata Hyuga thwarted an attempted kidnapping of herself and rendered the culprit unable to flee. For this, she is a hero to the Hidden Leaf Village and earned the right to call herself a Shinobi. Please, join me on stage and accept your headband."
Hinata, wearing a yellow yukata, walked up onto the stage where she joined the Hokage. The young Hyuga prepared to project her voice in a calm, genuine manner.
"Lord Hokage, I am grateful you see me as worthy of this honor, but I must decline." Hinata voiced causing people to whisper amongst themselves. "While you see me as worthy, I know I am not. The situation with the Cloud Shinobi was an accident. I didn't even want to hurt anyone, but I am happy to have helped my village.
I think what I did ultimately demonstrates what I want, everyone to get along and help one another. While I will not be a Genin today, I know the Hyuga Clan will always be there to protect the Leaf. Even though I cannot accept this honor, I do thank the village on behalf of the Hyuga's Main and Branch Families."
Upon hearing they were included, the Branch Family felt appreciated and acknowledged while many of the Hyuga elders were irritated. As for the rest of the village, they were shocked since it was expected that a power greedy Clan Head would have had her take such an offer.
Instead, they got a sweat, genuine, and earnest display of honesty from the Hyuga heiress. To many, she sounded and looked like an angel. Throughout the crowd, rumblings of the Leaf's Lavender Eyed Angel was already spreading.
Uchiha Clan Compound: Day…
(8 Years Since Nine Tails & Janemba) (Goku & Turles 8 years old/Raditz 13 years old)
Unlike that sunny day, years ago, which celebrated Hinata Hyuga, it was pouring from the gray skies above the Leaf Village. A young boy walked through his compound as it was in shambles and paid no mind to the fact he was being soaked.
This boy was Sasuke Uchiha, one of only two remaining Uchiha. He has black eyes and spiky black hair, though far less spiky than Goku's. He was dressed in a black shirt and tan pants. As he walked, fresh from the hospital, memories of what happened flashed through his mind.
Eventually, he ended up at his home and ultimately in his parents' bedroom where they had been cut down by their own son, his older brother. The outlines of their body and the blood from their deaths was still there. He collapsed to his knees crying over all that he lost.
While the Hyuga were in better standing than ever, the Uchiha Clan was reduced to two lone souls. Only one of them was even still in Konoha while the other was somewhere out there. This fact only made Sasuke cry more.
Given well over half the people in the Z Fighters were at one time villains, it's no stretch of the imagination that Goku would befriend Naruto, in my opinion. I believe this would then be the catalyst for Naruto going onto inspire Hinata. Given what both Naruto and Hinata pulled off, even if that last one was by accident, it'd then inspire Goku to work harder. When it comes to Naruto not attempting a Clone Jutsu here, he simply isn't good at balancing his time yet.
As he balances his time with Goku and training, there will be some form of improvement there. How much? Well, you'll have to wait on that. As for Tao Pai(Tai Pai Pai) being the Head Cloud Ninja, I think it makes sense in context. Despite being a rather serious threat, Goku has shown to make a monkey out of him. He'd also likely underestimate a child, even if they had the Byakugan. Then, we get to the inclusion of the Sasuke bit.
It's to say that I don't think anything that's changed would change the fate of the Uchiha Clan or Sasuke up to this point. I had considered making Vegeta an Uchiha, but I don't want to toss every DBZ character into one Shinobi Village. While Raditz is the same age as Itachi, I don't see the two really knowing each other that well. Anyways, expect a few more chapters establishing things before getting into the series proper.
blackcat505: Thank you for your encouragment. Don't worry, I figured someone would have adverse reactions to what I was setting out to do. It's not exactly a common thing to put up ground rules on your story, at least from what I've seen. Honestly, I expected more than one person to review such things than just one guest.
Guest 1: While I do thank you for your review, I do wish it'd been spoken with less hostility and vulgarity. As for the points you brought up, the Clan Restoration Act is a fan created concept. It has never once been mentioned in series. According to Narutopedia, the Hatake, Uchiha, and Uzumaki Clans are all a thing, yet Kakashi is single while Naruto and Sasuke only have one partner.
On top of that, Sasuke only has one child. For someone whose secondary goal was to rebuild the Uchiha Clan, you'd think the Clan Restoration Act would have been mentioned, in series, with Sasuke at any point. Even if it is a real concept, I don't feel like taking away potential partners for other people just to write a harem story. There's nothing wrong with those stories, I've read plenty.
They're just not what I want to write. I also don't disagree that Dragon Ball Characters are stronger than Naruto characters. It's one of the reasons my ground rules are that they will be on even footing in this story. I don't want to contribute another story where the DBZ characters are just stronger. There's plenty of that in the crossover section.
Guest 2: Thank you.
