Demon: Here we are again. This may be the last chapter of Sounds for a while, Angel is starting to get burned out.
Angel: Yeah, sorry gang, I can only work on each story for so many chapters. But I love the reactions I got from the last chapter.
Demon: It was funny I kept getting reviews on my phone.
Angel: I know it seemed too short...here's the thing...I was pushing 8 pages. I spent an entire weekend on it and most of my snow day on Monday. Can you believe it? Snow in the middle of March?
Demon: Well, I hope this chapter will satisfy your urges. We will post all the songs from the previous chapters and this chapter at the end. Enjoy Chapter 5!
***Flashback***
Naruto looked into Shion's teal eyes, trying to shake the feeling he always got when he would remember that her eyes didn't have a pupil. He smiled at her. "You look like you want to ask me something."
"I do," Shion replied, "Naruto, I want you to help me continue the priestess line in the future."
Naruto, being a heartbroken teenager, smiled at the opportunity. But he didn't think he was ready just yet. After all, he was getting over the fact that his last girlfriend's brother almost killed him a few weeks ago. He nodded. "Of course, when I am a stronger ninja, I will return to you and help you."
***End flashback***
Naruto's eyes widened when he met the eyes of his betrothed. He looked at Orochimaru who was standing next to him and he grabbed the man's shirt. "Can. I. Talk. To. You. Alone?" They walked off at a distance so that the Hyuuga's wouldn't hear them.
Hinata looked at her parents, then looked around the room. Suddenly she heard Orochimaru yell. "WHAT THE HELL? WHY DID YOU GO AND MAKE THAT PROMISE!"
Naruto hissed, "I didn't think that I was going to be betrothed!"
"Naruto, do you have any idea how this'll look over your head?" Orochimaru growled, "You're to be married and then you vanish to Demon Country? To fulfill a promise to a priestess?"
"Look, I'm sorry! I'll just tell Hinata the truth."
"No! Not yet!" Orochimaru sighed, "It'll kill her if you tell her now when she's supposed to be talking to you right now." He sighed. "You can handle it later when you two have become more comfortable with each other. But right now, this is a fresh start for the both of you and this news can cause your death."
Naruto sighed, "Alright."
Hinata watched him turn around and walk up to her with a small smile on his face. She blushed, he was quite handsome. Of course she'd always have thought that before she met him in person, but right now, watching him up close and able to hear him just talk to her. She smiled at him sweetly.
Naruto felt his smile come willingly. She was pretty, but of course she was a royal so she would be pretty. But there was something...charming...about her aura. Something natural was around her beauty. Then she took a few steps toward him and her bracelets rang in the air. Naruto was taken aback, feeling the vibrations of the song of elemental metal. He felt the warmth of fire, the softness of wind, the cooling of water, the vibrancy in lightning, and the strength of earth. He smiled. "You must be a gypsy, a child of nature."
Hinata blushed. "H-how could you tell?"
"You're aura, you carry the aura of nature. You flow with the wind and water with the power of fire, the strength of earth, and the swiftness of lightning." He took her wrist and touched the bracelets. He felt each element. The fire bracelet was warm to the touch, the earth vibrated soothingly, the wind was light, water was cool...
"Ouch!" Hinata exclaimed in shock as Naruto felt a sudden burst of electricity run through his metaled arm.
He bit his lip at the temporary pain. Then he looked at Hinata who's eyes were wide in worry. He chuckled nervously...really nervously. "Lightning...hehe..."
Hinata giggled just as nervously as he did. 'Oh no! I shocked him! What if he doesn't like me now for being a gypsy...' She went through so many worries in her head.
"I'm glad I get to meet you today, Hinata." Naruto said softly. Hinata looked up at him, meeting his eyes and seeing his smile. "To be honest, I never knew I was betrothed. So I'm...hehe...kinda nervous."
She couldn't help but blush. He was just as nervous as she was. Oh praise the Gods, she wasn't alone in her uncertainties! Maybe this arranged marriage thing would work out after all. Maybe they could grow to like each other! "M-me too, Naruto-san."
Orochimaru and the Hyuuga parents left the area to let them be alone to talk. Emi looked back at her daughter, watching her act so sweet and innocent. It reminded her of the days that when her family's caravan was traveling through Konoha and young Hiashi was flirting with her. Naruto was standing with his hands resting on the back of his head, shifting his weight to one leg, trying to act carefree. Hinata was pushing her fingers together in nervousness. It was so cute. Emi smiled and walked away.
Naruto chuckled. "For being a really big fan of us, you aren't as crazy as I was afraid you'd be."
Hinata looked up. "Wh-what do you mean?"
"I mean that you aren't screaming at me demanding that you'd have my baby now." He looked out towards the front of the stage, where he could still see his hardcore fans waiting. "It's the one drawback to doing what I love. Many girls love me more than I love myself...and I don't want that."
Hinata couldn't speak, she was shocked. Naruto didn't like fangirls? But he seemed so into his fans and always seemed to welcome them. But right now, he seemed hostile toward them. She looked down, still thinking that he wouldn't like her as much as he liked his fans. "But I am a really big fan of your voice. It's really quite amazing."
Naruto smiled at her. "Thank you." He looked off into the distance and saw Tayuya motioning him to the stage. He sighed. "I'd hate to depart from you this soon, but I must go, my fans await."
Hinata nodded and backed up a few steps as Naruto walked back to the stage. Orochimaru walked up beside her. "He's just nervous. This is his biggest concert yet and he meets you. Don't be angry at him for seeming standoffish."
Hinata smiled with serenity. "I'm not angry...I understand."
***Sounds***
Naruto took a deep breath, he knew that his voice was starting to sound metallic. This was perfect in a good way. Time to make these fans work. "Alright, Konoha! I'm gonna make you work in this next song!" The fans cheered in excitement, anticipating the next song. Naruto cleared his throat to get the rest of the metallic sound read. Then he slowly said the song title. "Harder...Better...Faster...Stronger..." The fans screamed in joy. "Tayuya! Launch!"
The arena was soon filled with the rich sounds of techno music. A few of the ninja already started to dance to the song the way Naruto had showed them last time he was here. "Follow Sanda here! He'll lead you into the dance!"
Sanda hopped up beside Naruto, jumping on his tiptoes. "Yo we're going to learn some steps that you need to mess with the best. Train to this song and you'll be awesome!" He started to dance to the song and the fans began to follow. Even Hinata found herself trying to match the dance.

By then most of the ninja where dancing and a few of the civilians where getting into it. Hinata had already mastered the moves and she was laughing, having the time of her life.

Now the entire audience were either dancing or attempting the dance. Sanda was leading the dance, Naruto was hopping beside him and the rest of the band was dancing with them except for Tayuya who was manipulating the sound.
Work it Harder Make it Better
Do it Faster Makes us Stronger
More than Ever Hour After
Our Work is Never Over
Tayuya took over, making Naruto's voice repeat and break like true techno. Naruto put the mic down and fully joined in on the dance as Tayuya finished the song off. When the song ended, the audience cheered, jumping. Naruto had to smile when he noticed Hinata cheering in the pit. He chuckled, "Alright, Konoha! That was epic! We'll have to quit for a few days...but keep those tickets! We'll be back in four days! We'll see you then!"
