Chapter 27 time to form a new team
By jacke44:
[Uzumaki compound next day]
Naruto was heading for the front gate thinking about what happened at the meeting yesterday and how got his revenge on Hiashi for what he had done to Hinata.
He had to smile to himself as he remember the look on both of Hinata's and Hanabi's faces when he told them at dinner. Both of them had tackled him in a hug kissing both his cheeks. With happy tears going down their cheeks. Because they never had to worry about their father trying to get them again.
He was brought out of his thinking by somebody calling his name. Turning in the direction of the voice he sees the set of twin girls, Saori and Arisu. Both of them wearing their cheongsam style dresses with their hair done the way they always did, but he notice that they each added flowers to their hair. For Saori the older of the two, it was one big blue flower attached to her single ponytail and for Arisu she had one pink flower on each of her pigtails.
The both of them have the spears that he had given them and in his head he is groaning to himself because they had insisted on being his personal gate/security guards and attempted to follow him everywhere he goes. The both of them are now looking up at him. He put on a smile and asks "what do you want?"
Saori the more serious one slams the butt of her spear on the ground as she says "why did you not come and get us and tell us you were going to leave? As your guards it is our duty to protect you but we cannot do that if you never tell us you are leaving" with an angry pout on her face.
Arisu the more childish one puffs out her cheeks and begin to flare her arms in a childlike manner saying "yeah big brother, you big meanie."
He found it highly amusing that these two were actually twins because they are completely opposite to each other. Laughing at their antics and putting up his hands in front of his chest saying "OK, OK, I give up. I'm sorry. But seriously guys I don't need you guys to follow me everywhere. I was heading to the hospital because I have to put a team together for an upcoming mission."
Saori says "you do not have a say in the matter. You signed us to be your guards and that is what we're going to do. We may not be able go out on missions with you but when you're in the village we would do our job" stepping up to his left side.
Arisu who quickly stepped up to his right side saying "ok big brother let's go to the hospital" pumping her fist into the air as she walks forward and takes a right turn.
Naruto smiles and says "Arisu the hospital is the other way" she quickly does an about face and says "I knew that." This brings a smile to his face, it also makes her sister look at her with a look of embarrassment on her face because of her actions.
[Business district]
As the 3 of them were walking down the street, it makes for incredibly cute picture of Naruto walking with 2 little girls standing on either side of him with spears, and the girls trying to keep a serious look on their faces. As he looked around, he could see the smiles on the women and men's faces. He could tell that some of them were struggling not to laugh at him.
The group suddenly stop because they can hear a voice that they recognize say "well, well, well, look what we have here." Turning to look at the voice, the three see Ino as well as her mom Inoiki and Yoshino and Channa.
Ino with a big smile on her face says "if it's not the new big bad Chuunin, the man who can make two invading armies run away, and then fight a Sannin. But now he needs two little girls to protect him, oh how the mighty have fallen." This makes everybody on the street laugh at the embarrassed boy.
Naruto sees that everybody is now laughing at him. He narrows his eyes and says "you do realize this means war, don't you Yamanaka? Because remember I still have that piece of blackmail on you from when you were 8 years old and you won first prize in the blueberry pie eating contest."
Ino crosses her arms and says "no you don't because I managed to destroy all of the pictures."
Naruto with his fox like grin says "you are correct but you forgot about the negative in which I'm in possession of. And even if you manage to destroy it you're looking at someone who can easily recreate that scene with the shadow clone and the transformation techniques."
Saori looks up at him and asks "what's so bad about the picture big brother?"
Naruto replied saying "let's just say she lives up to her namesake."
Arisu breaks out into giggles saying "you mean she ate like a pig."
Ino's entire face goes red with embarrassment as she moves forward like she's going to strangle the little girl for calling her a pig but a hand on her shoulder from her mom stops her.
Suddenly the whole group can hear the scream of a woman looking across the street. They see a woman holding her large stomach wearing what looks like maternity clothes. They quickly go to her side with Yoshino checking on her using her medical knowledge confirming that her water just broke and she is now in labor.
Naruto look at Inoiki and Channa and Ino and says "I'm gonna take her straight to the hospital. I need you to take the girls and meet me there." Receiving two nods of the heads from the moms as Ino grabs both of the girl's hands.
Naruto gets down to one knee and looks at a woman and says "my name is Naruto Uzumaki. I can get you to the hospital safely and quickly. Do I have your permission touch you Miss?" The woman looks at him and says "yes" through gritted teeth seeing she was obviously in pain. He put his hands on her shoulders and says "take a deep breath" he then uses flash step and the two of them disappear. Inoiki looks at the group and says "let's go to the hospital to meet up with them."
Saori asks "before we go can I ask a question?" Seeing Inoiki nod she asks "why did big brother ask her if he could touch her before he took them to the hospital?"
Channa says "I'm glad that you caught that. When your big brother was ten years old he and your aunt Ino took a class at the hospital in what to do in emergencies like that and other crisis situations and that was one of the things that they taught him because he was a boy and because it was a woman he had to ask for her permission before touching her because she might not have been comfortable with him doing so. Some women do not appreciate men touching them."
Ino then says "and he has often taken classes with my dad because besides being an interrogator he sometimes works as a counselor."
Ino and Inoiki and Channa and Yoshino, each of them smiling to themselves remembering the conversation they had with him about what happened during the month of training and how he rescued Fū.
Arisu nods and looks up at her and says "can we get ice-cream on the way to the hospital?" With a large innocent smile on her face.
Inoiki and Channa and Yoshino share a smile before they say "OK. What flavor of ice cream do you girls want?" Arisu and Saori share a look then says "blueberry." This makes all three mothers break out laughing at the look on Ino's face.
[Hospital upon arrival]
Upon arrival in the waiting room, Naruto runs up to the front desk saying "we have a code Robin." The nurse who was working does not even look up from her paper and hands him a clipboard saying "fill out these papers and take a number and doctor will be with you as soon your number is called.
Naruto grab the clipboard and slams it down on the counter top saying "we do not have time for this." The nurse stands up and said "if I let every single person who came in here jump in line because they think they were more important nothing would get done. Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to get a cup of coffee."
Upon seeing her not even care about a pregnant woman infuriates Naruto and before anybody in the room can do anything, Naruto reaches out and grab her by the front of her uniform and slams her on the counter top. Speaking in a voice that sent a shiver down everybody spine he says "you have precisely 30 seconds to get a gurney in here for this woman. Are you gonna be happy you're in a hospital because you're gonna be the one to need it." All of the other patients begin to clap with several of the women then saying "you should be ashamed of yourself." As they were helping the woman into a wheelchair.
When suddenly a new voice says "what is going on here?" As everybody turns to look at the door. There standing in the door was Sara along with Unohana and Hinata with Sara looking at Naruto.
Sara then says "Naruto you had better have a good reason for manhandling one of my nurses."
Naruto throws the nurse on the ground at her feet and says "that bitch is deliberately ignoring a code Robin which is a woman in labor, if I remember correctly and I know from all the different times that we've talked and all the times I've helped around the hospital it is one of the top 2 codes that do not get ignored and usually jump to the front of the line. The second one being a code Blue Jay which is an injured child. But yet she is more interested in getting a cup of coffee."
Sara and Unohana both have the same look on their faces that's says that they wanted to rip her apart. Sara looks down at her says "clean out your locker and don't ever let me catch you on this property again unless you are dying or for an emergency."
The nurse get to her feet and says "you can't do that to me. My husband is on the civilian council one comment from me and I would have your job."
Unohana walk forward with both of her eyes closed she says "allow me to show you the door." Faster than anybody could see she delivers a poke to the forehead sending her crashing through the door to the outside.
A few seconds later the group of moms and Ino come running in with the girls. It was Saori who says "see we can't leave you alone for 5 seconds without you getting in trouble big brother." This makes everybody laugh. Naruto just rolled his eyes and says "what can I say? I'm like a magnet for it."
The woman who is now being looked at by some nurses says "please someone's got to tell my husband please. I don't know if I can do this without him." Naruto looks at her and says "where is he at?" After being told that he's working at a construction site and his name he disappeared only to reappear a few moments later with a man wearing a construction uniform who quickly goes to her side before they leave into the doors they say "thank you."
Sara looks at Naruto and asks "why are you here? And please try not to cause any more trouble or I might have to sign you up for a full medical exam." With that damn sweet smile on her face.
Naruto says "I just came to check on Rock Lee and I know his teammates would be here and I need to speak to them."
Sara says "I see well we are on our way to see him as well so you can join us but I'm afraid that those are not allowed in my hospital." As she point at the spears. After saying goodbye to Ino and the moms and making a quick stop at Sara's office to drop off the spears, the group heads up to the third floor.
[Third flood]
As they are walking down the hallway Hinata looks at Naruto and says "I thought you did not like hospitals so why were you volunteering to help around here?"
Naruto replied yes "I don't like hospitals that much it is true but I know how boring it can be so I was always helping the kids who are stuck in bed by making them laugh and bringing in comic books and coloring books and toys when I could. And then there were a few times I snuck in a puppy for the kids to play with."
Sara smiles and says 'yes he became quite a little candy stripper even if we could never get him to wear the uniform." Naruto look at her and said "because I am not going to let you dress me up like a stupid candy cane."
Sara then had a bad cough that sounded more like orange jumpsuit.
Naruto decides to ignore her and says "so what are you doing at the hospital Hinata? I thought you were all healed up." Hinata says "Sara wanted to do a check up on me after you showed the medical file to her of what happened with the clan elder." With a slightly embarrassed look on her face she says "what happened to those pictures?"
Naruto says "you do not have to worry about that I burned them so no one can ever see them."
Naruto looks at Unohana and says "what are you doing here?"
Unohana gives her typical smile and says "I'm just here to exchange information with another doctor who manages to impress me and sharing different technique."
The group approaches room 303 with a nameplate on the side.
[Room 303]
Sara is the one to knock on the door when they can hear somebody said "come in" the group heads in and see Lee sitting up in his bed with his left arm and leg wrapped up in bandages. Tenten was sitting in a chair next to him. His sensei Might Guy, upon seeing the doctor runs up to her and drops to his knees and wrap his arms around her leg saying "you can heal him right Sara-chan?"
Sara with an annoyed look on her face says "Might Guy you have to the count of 5 to remove yourself from me or we are going to have a repeat of what happened to you when we were Chuunin and on the same team for a mission and you came crashing into the tent when I was changing clothes." Suddenly before anybody could blink Guy was hiding behind Naruto.
Tenten looks at her sensei and says "is that reason you always make me have my own tent when we are on missions?"
Before Naruto can make a comment a voice says "what are you doing here Uzumaki?" He notices who is standing in the corner, Kakashi.
Naruto completely ignored him and looks at Sara and Unohana says "how is Lee?" Sara takes a clipboard off the wall and says "it's not looking good he has severe damage to his spine that I am not able to treat." As she hands the clipboard to Unohana to look at.
Unohana shakes her head and says "there's just too much damage even I would have trouble healing something like this."
Naruto says "I see well then let's try this" putting on a smile he looks at Hinata and says "you're up Hinata-chan."
Hinata walks up to the bed and holds up her hands and spoke, "Ayame, Shun'o! Soten Kishun (Twin Sacred Return Shield)!" And two glowing lights shot forward from her hair clip and created and oblong dome over Lee's body.
Those who have not seen this technique were shocked at seeing it. Lee was about to touch the shield with his good hand when Hinata says "please do not move."
Kakashi lifted up his headband trying to see what she was doing but his Sharingan could not decipher what it was supposed to be doing.
Suddenly there was a little voice that Hinata recognized as Ayame spoke saying "there is a lot of damage here Hinata-chan, it is going to take us a while for us to heal it all."
Sara says "I do not understand. How is she able to do this? The only person I can think of who might be able to heal him would be Lady Tsunade and I've never seen a technique like this before. How does it work?"
Naruto says "what it does is it surrounds something to return it to its former, complete state. It rejects, reverses, and reconstructs phenomena that have occurred, even phenomena that she hasn't witnessed. The incantation she said allows her to summons Ayame and Shun'ō to form a barrier around whatever or whomever Hinata wishes. Their ability is to repel the "inner shield." The shield placed inside means that they repel the damage within a limited area. In other words, they return a subject covered by the shield to the state that they were in before taking damage. Her ability is to limit, reject, and negate any kind of event that has happened. Her summoning tells us that the technique's healing speed is potentially faster than most healing techniques. Far more powerful than Tsunade's Creation Rebirth technique, it is a power that trespasses into Kami's territory. So in theory with the right training she can fully resurrect a person after death even if only a blood splatter on the ground is all that is left."
Arisu and Saori begin rubbing their head's and says "you're using too many big words big brother on us. Our head's hurt now" with little pouts.
Sara looks at him and says "you should be ashamed yourself using such big words in front of little girls" with that damn smile on her face. As she reaches into her coat pocket and pulled out 2 lollipops and hands them to the little girls.
Naruto, seeing most everybody was looking at him with a confused look not understanding what he said. So he says "she basically creates a barrier and can use a space-time Ninjutsu to rewind time inside of it."
Sara looks at Hinata and says "she could one day rival Tsunade. Does this technique work on diseases or just physical damage?"
Naruto says "just physical damage and I hope you are not planning on making her spend her whole life healing every little broken finger that walks in there." Sara says "no I will only call her if it's an emergency."
Kakashi says "where are you getting all these artifacts that let you have strange and unique powers? I have never come across anything like this before or the ones you handed out in the invasion. Something like this can easily become quite popular if it can be replicated."
Naruto looks at him and says "they are one of a kind and cannot be replicated. As to how I came into possession of them, my family is one of the oldest families on the planet. We can trace lineage back to Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo also known as the Sage of 6 Paths. We're related through one of his son's. And that is all you need to know Kakashi and no you will not be getting one of these tools."
Naruto says "now that we got that taken care of" he looks at Guy and says "the reason I came here was to ask you if I could borrow one of your students for an upcoming mission."
Guy give him a thumbs up and answers "of course Uzumaki. Which one of my students will you be needing?"
Naruto turn his head and looks at Tenten and says "will you be up for a mission in a couple days?" Tenten nods and says "yeah why not what is the mission?" Naruto then says "we are going to hunt a slug." Tenten with a confused look on her face says "why are we going hunting for a slug?"
Naruto says "this is no ordinary slug she is quite famous" knowing that this would catch her attention.
Tenten lets out a squeal while her eyes turned into stars and says "we are going to look for Lady Tsunade?" Now looking like a statue. Saori and Arisu start to poke her with them saying "I think you broke her big brother."
Naruto looks back at Tenten seeing she is still zoned out, and walks up to her and he finger flicks her on the forehead.
Tenten snaps out of it and begins to rub her forehead and says "what was that for? That hurt."
Arisu walk up to Naruto and kick him in the shin and says "you're not supposed to hit girls you big bully."
Naruto hopping on one foot saying "ow, ow, ow." As everybody besides Kakashi begin to laugh at him.
After spending another hour Hinata finally drops the barrier as she was panting for breath. Naruto walks up to her and hands her a glass of water.
Sara walk up to the bed and begins to do a check up on Lee. After a few moments she looks back and says "I can't find anything wrong with him he's completely healed."
Naruto looks at her and said "you did a good job Hinata-chan. I'm sure one day you will make a great doctor and fulfill your dream." Hinata glancing up to look at him and says "you know?" Naruto nods and said "I know everything about my family. Their hopes and dreams and I am going to do what I can to help them. No matter what it would be. If you'd rather be a doctor or a published author, a farmer, a movie actress, it will only be limited by their imagination. One of the girls I adopted that wants to become a Miko [Shrine Maiden] and I told her that when I get time I will take her to a temple so she can talk to one of the Priestesses to see if it's really what she wants." All four of the older women along with Might Guy send him a smile for that.
Kakashi let out a snort out his nose says "oh really and what if one of the girls decide she wants to work in a brothel would you support her then?"
Guy looks at him and says "that's enough Kakashi, one more word out you and I will have you running laps."
Naruto says "no it's OK guy and to answer your question Kakashi I already have a woman that I rescued during that month of training when you ditch me and who has been working in one of those since she was 14 because her father sold her to pay off his gambling debt. And she is not coping to well not having to do that work anymore. I had to promise her I would do what I could to help her to stop her from running back and joining a new one even if I had to open one myself. And if it comes down to that I can guarantee you that mine will be more sterile than any other one that you can find and any of the women working at mine will make a decent wage and have to get a medical checkup every other month at no cost to them."
Tenten was begin to yell at him for even thinking about opening a brothel and how she thought he was better than that but she stops seeing Sara and Unohana send him a nod of approval both of them telling her that most men who run those do not care about the women and their health or keeping it clean. Sara then says "I can see that you're angry about that but you should know most of the men and some women who run them all they care about care is how much money they can make. And the fact that he is willing to make sure they get health checks along with making a decent wage, it show that he really cares about them."
Tenten looks down and says "I'm sorry Naruto I should not have jumped to conclusions like that. It's just that I grew up in the red light district and I have seen a lot of women like that and that's one of the reasons why I became a Kunoichi. I hate when men see women only as toys for their pleasure and saying that's all we are good for. I wanted to prove that women could be strong too. I also hate it when women do that because they are giving all women like us bad name."
Naruto says "you're right Tenten some of the women who do it just because they want to can give women a bad name but not all the women who do are bad. Some have to do it because they don't have a choice. You said you grew up in the red light district so let me ask you a question Tenten. If a single mom comes home to find her apartment broken into and all her savings gone and she knows there will be no food on the table in the morning for her children and after she put her children to bed she goes and sells her body that night that way her children would have food in the morning does that make her a bad mom?
Hinata comes up and stands next to Tenten and put her hand on her shoulder then look at Naruto and says "no that makes her a responsible mother and show that she loves her children by willing to do that for them" with Tenten nodding and says "she right."
Naruto says "now that we've gotten that out of the way I have to leave as I have 2 more teammates I have to recruit but before we leave I do have one more gift I wanna give." Reaching into his coat pocket he pulls out a box. And walks up to the bed and says "I'm sure this one will come in handy for you and help you Lee."
Lee looks at the box and lift the lid with everybody looking over his shoulder, once the lid was removed it was revealed to be a set of brass knuckles with three 7's on it.
The weapon loving member on team 9 was looking at it with interest. With a smile on her face she looks at him and says "OK I give up. What does this one do?"
Naruto says "what you're holding there is known as Jackpot Knuckle (Jakkupotto Nakkuru): By Lee having anything come into contact with it, he will be able to manipulate the probability of that and hit a jackpot. Which means he basically almost guaranteed a one hit knockout and maximizes the damage that he will deal out. But it does come with a drawback. The more times Lee uses it on the same target, he will lower his chance of hitting the jackpot becomes."
Lee looks at Naruto with fire in his eyes and says "do not worry Naruto I will master this new tool or I will do 800 laps around the village on my hands." Guy putting a hand around his shoulder and says "that is my youthful student. I will help you and if I fail I will walk all the way to the Land of Wind on my hands." Soon both of them are hugging but before they could activate the sunset Genjutsu, Naruto says "you two better not activate that technique in front of these little girls or I promise you I will go and get Yoshino."
Naruto sees the both of them had stopped then says "good now it's time for us to go. Be ready to go day after tomorrow Tenten."
As Naruto and the girls head out the door, they can hear Arisu asking him "can we please stop by and see the babies?" Making the women in the room smile to themselves.
[Nursery wing]
As they approach the window that would let them see the babies, they see the man from earlier standing in the hallway looking in. Noticing them approach he said "I wanna thank you again for getting my wife here I don't know what she would have done if you had not been there to help her. As you know I work in construction. I'm the owner of the company, if you ever need anything let me know and I will do my best to help." Naruto smiles and says "no thanks is necessary. That's what our family does, helping people." As he walked up to the window with the girls he says "your wife must have had a quick birth for you to be standing here. So which one is yours?" He just points and says "that little angel right there."
Arisu with her face pushed up against the window. She looks up at him and says "big brother how exactly do babies get into the mommy's belly? Because I can't wait till I can have a baby and be a mommy." Naruto says "well Arisu-chan" he begins to speak in a spooky voice "the first thing you have to do is go into a dark forest at night all alone then you have to go into a deep wet cave with lot's of spiders" but before he could say anything else he receives a smack to the head by a nearby nurse. As she was passing by she says in a sweet voice "Uzumaki Naruto" and at that moment he knew he was in trouble because she uses his full name she then says "you better not be trying to scare her because if you are I will have you scrubbing bedpans like what happened when decided to bring in those puppies in to see the kids."
As he is rubbing the back of his head he says "fine babies are made when a man and woman loves each other." Arisu looks at him says "so I all need to do is find a boy I can do that then I can be a mommy in no time."
Naruto reaches out and grab a few of her hairs on her head and pull them off. Making her yelp and says "why did you do that big brother that really hurt." Naruto says "good now I want you to imagine that pain only 1,000,000 times worse and that is how painful it is to have a baby."
Arisu looks at him says "you're kidding right?" At that moment a woman in a wheelchair holding a baby passes by and says "no he's not." As the woman gives him a wink, making Arisu face drain of all color.
[Random Street]
Half an hour later as the three of them are walking down the street Naruto says "well that is two members of the team down it was a good thing we ran into Choji. Now all I have to do is find my third member."
Arisu says "I like him, he is really funny." As she is eating a bag of chips. Saori looks at her and says "the only reason you like him is because he shared his snacks with you."
Naruto watched as the 2 bickered back and forth but suddenly he froze as he has the feeling of a cold blade on his cheek and a voice whimpering in his ear "funny running into you Gaki" slowly turning his head to the left he see Anko with a crazy look in her eyes.
As she says "you know I just got back from a meeting with Asuma and he told me a funny little story about what happened at the meeting yesterday and about a certain book and where you have been keeping it. I think it's time that we played hunt the fox. It's been so long since we played it. And now we can play it in the forest of death."
Anko looks at Saori and Arisu saying "I'm going to borrow your big brother for a while. You two are to go home and not say anything about this." Saori shrugged her shoulders and says "ok big sister have fun." Naruto looks at her and says "you're supposed to be my security guards and protect me and you're going to just let her take me away without even fighting for me?"
Saori looks at him and says "yes because big sister Anko has been teaching us about life and how to play poker and how they are similar and one of the lessons is a big sister will always trump a big brother." With that Anko and Naruto disappear in a swirl of leaves.
Saori look at her sister and says "let's go back to the compound before we get in trouble." Arisu nods her head and goes to walk forward. But Saori grabbed her by the back of her dress and says "the house is this way dummy, honestly if your head was not attached you would lose it."
[Forest of Death]
As soon as the two appeared in the clearing Anko pushes him forward him and pull out a kunai as she slowly begins to spin it on her finger. Anko begins to walk around Naruto.
Finally she stops and says "you know I've been looking for that book for a really long time spending hours upon hours searching random places and yet I can never seem to find it. And now I find out it was in my own apartment. But what is more interesting is that it was in my top dresser drawer the one place that I would never think to look. So do you have anything you want to say before we start our new game Gaki? And just so you know I'm not gonna be holding back on you now that you're a ninja. And the fact that you were able to take on my sensei is only gonna make this much more fun."
Naruto who had managed to get to his feet says "I do have one thing I wanna say before I start running, you dropped your 50% off coupon for dumplings on the ground." Anko looks down but quickly looks back up to see he is already running. Licking the side of the blade and then says "I always love it when they run."
Within a few seconds she had managed to chase him down through the trees. In her sweet little voice she said "you know that's going to cost you" as she throws the kunai at him quickly. He dodges the attack by jumping to the next tree branch but instead of landing on his feet he does a handstand and kick his right leg out towards her and a hidden blade comes flying out of his pants leg.
Anko who managed to bat the blade away was not prepared for Naruto to appear above her as he prepared to do an axe kick to her head. Anko quickly grab the leg but was caught off guard by Naruto twisting his body to attempt to deliver a punch which she grabbed with her free hand. That is when she notice that both her hands are now blocked leaving him with his free leg to deliver a kick to her chest sending her flying backwards.
Naruto lands on he feet and does several backflips to get some distance landed on his feet after a last one he slides backwards. As he sees Anko getting up and with a cocky smile says "come on little snaky snaky. The Fox wants to play" giving her the come here hand gesture.
Anko begin to laugh and says "my little fox-chan thinks he's ready to play with the big kids." She then dashes forward to deliver a flury of punches which he was able to block most of them.
Naruto had managed to get some distance as he reaches back and grab his tanto and with his fox like grin and says "you said you wanted to know what I could do, well you better get ready to drop your socks and grab your crotch Anko-chan. You're about to get wet and not in the fun way."
[Hinata POV]
Hinata having finished at the hospital returned to the compound and walk through it to her sister's room. As she knocks on the door when she hears a small voice say "come in" she opens the door to see Hanabi sitting on her bed looking at a picture. As she walks over to sit next to her sister and see the picture is of their mother. Hanabi looks up says "do you think she would be mad at us for leaving the family like we did?"
Hinata wrap her arms around her and shakes her head and says "no Hanabi-chan she would be happy that we were able to find a new family that loved us."
Hanabi put the picture on her night stand next to one of her and Naruto having ice cream in a shop back in the Land of Waves.
Hinata as look at her little sister and she can tell something is bothering her so she says "Hanabi-chan I can tell something else is bothering you. You always scrunch up your forehead when something is bothering you. If you keep doing it you're gonna give yourself worry lines." Hanabi looks up says "let's go to the tea house and I will tell you what's going on."
[The green leaf tea house]
As the sisters are drinking the tea Hanabi explains how she was beginning to have a crush on Naruto but he was oblivious to her affections. She then says "I even went out and bought a new dress but he did not say anything about it except that is looks cute on me."
Hanabi looks down at her cup of tea and says "I know the reason why it is because I don't have a body that's interesting to him. I'm as flat as a board and I have to look up at him so why would he want me when he could have someone like you. You're almost the same height not to mention your chest." By now she had tears going down her cheeks.
Hinata's outward face showed no emotion at hearing her sister had a crush on her crush but inside her head was a chibi Hinata who was hitting a chibi Hanabi with a picket sign that read he is mine you stay away from him.
Hinata reaches out and takes her sisters hand saying "you know Naruto does not judge a woman by her body or her age. As for you not having any chest, you are 8 years old. I'm sure in a few years you will easily have one to match me. I mean just look at our mom big chests run in our family." And with a grin she says "between you and me, I know for a fact that he likes big chests. You saw the way he was acting around those women back in the land waves." Making both of them break out in giggles remembering how Rangiku would constantly grab his head and bury it in her chest.
Hinata takes a deep breath then says "as for him not noticing your attempts, I have known him for years. He can be pretty oblivious to things. Don't forget what his mother told us about how the men from his family are completely clueless when it comes to women. And that is why the women in his family had to be so strong and independent." This makes both sisters giggle remembering their conversation with her and the countless stories that she told them of how the men would mess something up and the women would have to fix it.
Hinata then says "Hanabi now that Naruto status is out he will most likely have to take up the CRA which will mean he will have to have multiple wives and it will be hard for me to accept it but I'm willing to share him if I can get him to accept me. As for you having a crush him, I'm sure if you talked to him and tell him how you feel I'm sure he would be willing to listen to you. But you will have to wait until you are older due to you not wanting to be a ninja you are considered a child until you are 16. Because he is technically considered an adult you will not be able to have a physical relationship with him. But that does not mean you cannot go out with him and have fun with him."
Hanabi says "I guess you are right. I mean four years age difference isn't that much maybe he will be willing to let me be a girlfriend and we can always go to the movies and go out to eat and we will be able to hold hands. And as for a physical relationship I am nowhere near ready for something like that not for a long time."
Hanabi says "as for you wanting to be his girlfriend too I'm sure he will accept you I mean look what he did to our cousin for you."
Hanabi put on a small grin and says "you know Hinata technically I am actually beating you in the relationship department with him. As I've already had a date with him so that makes the score one to zero."
Inside Hinata's head the chibi Hinata is now dressed like a little devil and now has the chibi Hanabi tied up and hanging over large cliff with sharks circling around down below and a knocked out chibi-Naruto is tied to a nearby tree with a sign hanging from his neck that read property of Hinata.
Hinata with a tiny grin says "you may have gotten the first date but remember I will have more opportunities to go on dates with him." And with that she signaled the waitress to bring another pot of tea.
[Hokage Tower that night]
Naruto not even bothering to knock on the door walked into the office. Hiruzen looks up to see his second grandson walking in looking as though he just walked through a war zone.
Hiruzen repressing a smirk picks up his pipe and says "so what brings you here tonight Lord Uzumaki?"
Naruto looks at him and says "first old man I wanted to say" as he begins wagging his finger at him "you can tell your son he's got trouble coming his way for telling Anko on me. I think it's time I broke out the one prank I was not going to use that involves a honey baked ham, a teapot, and a wolverine." Hiruzen loses all of the color in his face not wanting to know what kind of prank that could be. "And for the second reason I'm here because I decided on my team and we will be leaving soon my team will comprise of Tenten, Choji, and Ino. I'm also going to have to take Anko as a fourth member of my team. As I wanna have at least one person there to help me leading my first mission."
While he is thinking to himself 'I really don't have a choice she threatened to cut off a certain part of my body if I did not take her.'
Hiruzen says "I see you put together a strong team. Tenten, a long-range to mid-range fighter, Choji an up close combatant, and Ino, who will be able to help with her clan's ability, had they just graduated the Academy they would make a great team. I will give you credit for that."
"The fact that you took the time to put together such a well-balanced team are the qualities of a Chuunin and leadership then you go one step farther by requesting Anko to accompany you on the mission in case something goes wrong."
Hiruzen then says "what do you plan on doing with Jiraiya while you're out on your mission? Would you be willing to release him into my custody?"
Naruto takes a seat in a chair in front of the desk then he locks his fingers and says "what guarantee would I have that he will show up for his trial? He is a master of stealth and evasion." Hiruzen says "well for one thing Pakkun would be able to summon him if he tries to run."
Naruto nods his head says "ok you'll will have to pay his bail which is going to be 10,000,000 Ryo which I'm sure as a published author and how many books he has made his bank account will not take that big of a hit and that is non-negotiable and non-refundable when he does try to run."
Hiruzen gives a nod of the head saying "very well as I have access to his account. I would require the money so we can post it now."
[Uzumaki Compound holding cells]
As the two are walking in are again met by a funny sight playing out in the room. There is a guard standing on the side of the cell as he is struggling not to laugh because in front of the cell is at least 5 children all singing "la-la-la-la sing the happy song" while they are also dancing in front it.
Inside his cell Jiraiya is laying down on his bed with his pillow on top of his head. If you are listening closely you can hear him saying "make it stop, make it stop."
Naruto says "ok you little brats get lost" making all the children run out of the room giggling. He then looks at the guard and says "what was that all about?" The guard replies "He was trying to hit on the servant who brought him his lunch. She did not take too kindly to it so she sent in the children to annoy him." Naruto nods he head and says "that's understandable. Why were you not affected?" The guard then says "I was the youngest of 10 children being annoying was my only defense against my older siblings."
Naruto says "well you are dismissed as the prisoner is being released into the custody of the Hokage." The guard gives a nod of the head then says "if it's OK with you I'd like to retire for the night. And would it be ok if I grab a bottle of sake from the cellar?" Naruto nods and says "yes but remember the rule no getting drunk in front of the children and keep it behind your door if you do."
Naruto opening the cell says "it would seem that luck is on your side Jiraiya your bail has been posted."
Jiraiya waking out of the cell looks at Hiruzen and says "how much did it cost you to get me out?"
Hiruzen was about to light his pipe but Naruto says "there is no smoking in my compound except in designated areas and this is not one."
Hiruzen says "let us go back to my office and I will explain what is happening Jiraiya." He the looks at Naruto and says "have a good night Naruto."
The two them stopped at the door as Naruto says "I wonder what is going to happen when I tell Tsunade how you let the child of woman that she considered a daughter be neglected." He then walked out a second door leaving two men with white faces.
[Yamanaka home]
After a day of shopping and having fun Ino and Inoiki walk in the back door with each one carrying a dozen shopping bags and giggling to each other.
Inoichi with his head on the table hears the door and he asks "honey, what is for dinner? I'm hungry." Not hearing a response he looks up seeing all the shopping bags and says "how big of a hit did my account take?" Earning him a smack on the back of the head by his wife and daughter. Ino says "I am going to take a shower mom. When I get out we will sort through all these bags."
An hour later Ino walks into her room wrapped in a big fluffy purple towel and sees a box laying on her bed. Walking over to look at it she sees a note on top of it in Naruto's sloppy handwriting.
(Note)
Dear Ino
I have selected you for a mission the day after tomorrow. We are going to find Lady Tsunade so prepare for a long mission inside this box is a tool like the one I gave Choji that I will explain how it works when you are walking.
From Naruto
(End of note)
Ino roll her eyes and says "that knucklehead" opening the box reveals a set of brown boots that would go up to her knees. Ino looks at them says "not bad Naruto and I cannot believe we're going to find Lady Tsunade."
She goes to her dresser and open her pajamas drawer only for a bunch of spring loaded rubber snakes to shoot out of it scaring her and making her scream and jump backwards making her towel drop to the floor leaving her naked. Her scream had alerted her dad who rushed into the room to see why his daughter is screaming and says "Ino are you ok?"
Ino seeing her dad rush in as she knows she is naked let out another scream using both her hands and arms to cover her body says "get out daddy," She then begins to throw her stuffed animal collection at him. This make him quickly run back outside and shut the door and to see his wife laughing her head off.
(Ino room)
Inoiki walks in to see Ino now wearing her purple nightgown and slowly opening each drawer in her room. She then says "he did tell you he was going get you back." Ino look at her saying "you're right mom but I don't think he meant for me to be seen naked by daddy. Even I know Naruto would not go that far so I think I'm gonna be able to guilt trip him. Maybe like an all-expenses paid spa day along with a new outfit." Inoiki says "maybe you should make it a couple's trip and invite him to go with you because of your crush on him. It would be a great way for you to start your relationship." Ino with a bright red face looks at her and says "mom what are you talking about? I don't have a crush on him." Inoiki turned around and heads out the door saying "whatever you say dear but should you change your mind? Both your father and I would both approve of him."
Ino goes to her night stand and looks at picture of her and Naruto at a summer festival when they were 8. In the picture she had fallen asleep on his shoulder watching fireworks. In her lap is a stuffed cat he had won at a game for her.
She then thinks to herself 'it's true that I have always considered him my backup plan. The one boy I know would always treat me correctly. Maybe mom is right besides he will have to take several wives. Maybe he will be willing to let me be one of them.' Hearing her mom call out that it's time for dinner. She smiles to herself and says "maybe I'll talk to him on the mission" then heads to dinner.
