As Hinata laid in bed, barely moving in a curled up fetal position, it had been four days and every hour in that day was a torture for her. She barely ate and she definitely didn't sleep since that startling revelation over five days ago. Many things ran through her mind, especially a blonde hair boy by the name of Naruto Uzumaki. She questioned every conversation, every emotion, every thought she had about spending a future with the man she loved who went by the alias Mikado Tae Shin. But it wasn't Naruto who won her heart it was Mikado, Naruto's alter ego who she wanted to be with for the rest of her life. She began to questioned did he truly loved her? She only seen Naruto at the prison hospital once, and told all that was there not reveal to him that she had visited. Hiashi cracked the door and looked at his eldest daughter who was an emotional wreck. Normally Hiashi would say put away those silly absurd emotions away their unbecoming of a Hyuga but this was no ordinary situation, she had the right to be depressed. He quickly walk through the door and sat on the side of the bed and placed a lovingly hand on her shoulder as he moved her hair with his other hand to see her face.

"I was a fool; with sweet words from his mouth and my unchecked emotions I couldn't tell that Mikado was actually Naruto. I cared for Naruto for so long but Mikado entered my life and within two months time frame I fell for Mikado who's nothing but a liar and no telling what else and I forgot about Naruto completely. What a pathetic woman I'm turning out to be." Hinata gripped the pillow tighter as more tears flowed down her cheeks

"Enough Hinata! You're not pathetic; you're a human being that fell in love simple and plain. Nothing could ever be pathetic about that. Naruto fooled me as well along with the rest of the village but he couldn't fool himself on how he felt about you." Hiashi's words were loud but had truth in them.

Hinata turned to face her father as he spoke to her. She could never recall him giving her advice or comforting her in any type of way.

"That boy if he's named Naruto or Mikado he loves you! I saw this boy come back from the brink of death to stay at your side, that's love Hinata if you choose to believe it or not it's true love. I don't know what your future holds but it's not laying in the bed wallowing in self pity. Talk to him then you make a decision if he's worth it or not, remember you two are still engaged."

Hinata head shot up, she completely forgotten about that fact.

"No…No I refuse to be his fiancée! He hurt me, he hurt me bad! Please cancel or engagement father I beg of you!" Hinata hugged her father as she cried into his shoulder.

Hiashi was shocked, she never asked for anything from him. Not praise, money or even his love but she was begging if her life was counting on it to cancel their engagement.

"You're a kunoichi as well as an adult; this is something that you must do for yourself. Talk to him and if you don't feel the same way then you can cancel the wedding." Hiashi got off the bed and headed to the door. Although he told Hinata he wouldn't get involved in their relationship, he was going to pay Naruto a very painful friendly visit.

As Hinata heard a knocking at the door, one of the branch members of her clan told her it was an ANBU waiting to see her. As she got up she straighten up her disheveled hair and clothes, she walked down the stairs to see what the ANBU wanted.

"I'm sorry lady Hyuga but could you follow me, it is of the utmost important." Said the ANBU in the hawk mask.

Hinata just nodded her head and headed out with the ANBU. As they were traveling she noticed they were heading toward the prison. They quickly arrived at the compound and were escorted in by Anko and Ibiki Morino.

"Sorry to be so enigmatic about bringing you hear but there was no other way. We have a prisoner that would like to talk to you alone, don't worry she's handcuffed to her bed and is in no condition to be a threat to you. She said she would tell us everything we need to know but only if she's given five minutes alone with you. Usually such a request isn't granted but since she has extensive injuries and would not survive the interrogation we were left with no choice but to comply." As Ibiki walked down the corridor with Hinata.

"She? Who is this she that wants to talk to me?" Asked a very puzzled Hinata.

"Her name is Tayuya one of Orochimaru's faithful followers and whatever she says don't believe her, we are very curious on why she wanted to talk to you. Do you know her?" Anko stood by the door as she looked at the both of them.

Hinata shook her head no and looked through the small window revealing a dark but dull pink hair girl just a little older than her. Hinata recognized the girl right away; she was the girl that was flirting with Naruto about two weeks ago when she was at the restaurant with her friends. She didn't understand, she never talked to this girl. She only seen her maybe twice and each time she saw her it was with Naruto.

"Don't be nervous just listen to her so she will give us the information on Orochimaru. Remember your shinobi training, if you can get her to reveal more information about herself than do it." Ibiki held a stone face as he opened the prison hospital door.

Hinata walked in as she took a seat at the side of her bed. Hinata noticed that the girl was pale and looked weak and was attached to a series of wires and tubes. Hinata felt very sorry for the girl, whatever happened to her was brutal.

"It's as bad as it looks" spoke Tayuya as she opened her eyes. "Your boyfriend or fiancée which ever title you're more comfortable with did this to me."

"Naruto did this to you?" Hinata looked in horror as she covered her mouth in shock.

"Yeah he did, that's why I came to warn you princess about Naruto. He's a monster and it's not just what he holds inside of him. He took his kunai and drove it into my chest close to my heart tearing my arteries' to shreds. I'm being kept alive by this damn beeping machine, my heart they say is so weak I can only live the life of a civilian now or I will live maybe another five years if I'm lucky. But I will remain in prison the remainder of my days here until my heart gives out and if doesn't then I will be moved to a small cold, damp cell with a woman who refuse to take no for an answer about being a fuck buddy. Its amazing Naruto broke my heart figuratively and literally and I still love the no good bastard with all my heart…that will never change." Tayuya began to lie to the young heiress now; she thought why they should be happy if she was condemned to this hell in prison.

"What? You were with Naruto in a romantic way?"

"Spiritually, emotionally and sexually he's my one true love. We gave each other our virginity, I was once pregnant by my former lover but I miscarriage. All my love ever talked about is how he was going to destroy the Konoha with his bare hands and make the streets run rivers of blood." Tayuya saw that Hinata face showed hurt, anger and confusion.

"Why are you telling me this?" Hinata's voice began to break.

"Because you deserve better, when I came to your village Naruto was going to remove your eyes and sell them. But first he needed to gain your complete trust, he told me that he would make you fall for him and that you would fall so that you would even leave your precious little village for him. I began to get jealous when he told me he was going to bed you and take away your virginity. His exact words were "I'm going to love to taste that untouched virgin pussy, hell I'll make her perform like a whore in a brothel house the first time we fuck."

Hinata world began to spin out of control; she could feel herself hyperventilating by the second.

"That's not true Naruto isn't like that."

"The Naruto that you grew up with has been dead for a long time girly girl; this Naruto is abusive, manipulative, heartless and a stone cold killer. He never loved you Hinata, Naruto and I was lovers for two long years and look what he did to me. He tossed me aside so he could fuck you and take your eyes, he's pretending to change over a new leaf but a leopard can't change its spots. If you're with him it will be a matter of time before he becomes bored with you and decides that you're not worth his dick or time. Hell he might even kill you."

Hinata got up from her chair and ran from Tayuya's room sobbing so hard that her vision was blurred.

"Hinata …. Wait what's wrong?" Ibiki tried to grab her arm as she yanked away from the scarred Jonin. Ibiki quickly yelled to Hinata "you can't believe a word she says! Hinata stop let one of my men escort you home." Ibiki saw the dark haired teenager run from the facility at top speed. Ibiki ran into Tayuya's room. "What did you say to her?" Ibiki's words were ice cold.

"Nothing big tall and scary it was just a little girl talk. Now do you want the information on Orochimaru or do you want to just stare at my tits all day?" Tayuya gave a sinister grin as she finally thought she would ruin the blonde's happiness once and for all.

Hinata made it home and rushed straight to her room. All she could do was repeat a ninja's phrase, a shinobi knew as rule number one.

"A ninja must never show emotions, a ninja must be strong no matter what the situation…" She must've repeated that phrase in her head a thousand times while running all the way home.

"Hinata what's the matter?" Asked her father as he saw her slumped over her bed.

"Nothing can you please leave me alone for a little while." Her words were cold as ice and her look was even colder than her voice.

Hiashi looked at his daughter and nodded. "Before I go maybe you should go out with some friend and enjoy Konohagakure's night life." Hiashi never saw his daughter this distraught, not even when they demoted her from heiress to just another clan member. He quietly closed the door and walked down the stairs.

Hinata never said a word; she just stared at the wall and wondered why she was being punished. Since Naruto came back her heart was hurting every day, she felt miserable as if part of her soul was stolen from her. All she could do is cry quietly and hope that this feeling would leave her without scarring her for life.

Hiashi deactivated his Byakugan as he looked at his little girl through the wall, he cursed the day that Naruto Uzumaki walked into his daughter's life.

As Naruto pondered on his situation with Hinata, he heard someone knocking on the front door. He opened to find a pissed off looking Hiashi standing at the door way. Before he could say come in, Hiashi struck him in the stomach knocking out his wind. Naruto slumped over as he held onto Hiashi for support. Hiashi left his hand on Naruto's stomach and kept pushing in his chakra into Naruto's gut as he grunted in pain.

"I just struck you with enough chakra to damage your kidneys and liver that even the strongest ninja would succumb to the pain. I'm very well aware on how fast you heal but you won't be moving for quite a while. You devastated my daughter with your lies and cruelty, just for that I should kill you! You're going to talk to my daughter and do whatever you have to do so she can go back to the kind and gentle person she once was. I don't care what you do even if you have to commit seppuku in front of her to beg for her forgiveness! You're worst than Hideo, at least I knew he was unworthy man but you…! I gave you the most precious person in my heart and you destroyed her right in front of me. Fix this situation and do it fast or next time it won't be a hand that penetrate you in the stomach but a long rusty dull sword that will make you bleed out so very painfully!" Hiashi threw Naruto down in front of the door and looked down at him in disgust, then he walked away saying heal his daughter's heart or he'll be back, that's a promise he intend to keep.

Naruto laid slumped over reeling from the pain he received from an angry father.

"Why didn't you warn me Kurama that Hiashi was at my door?"

"It's your own fault, you're back in Konohagakure. You should be ready for any attack, I thought a little reminder and example was in order." Kurama laughed inside his host mind.

Naruto stood up shaking as he vomited all of what he had for lunch and dinner. He shakily got up from all four and made it to his recliner and gasped for the air to return to his lungs. As his mind and body returned to normal he recalled Hiashi's demands more like his threats. He figured tomorrow would be a better day, tonight he needed the rest and to heal from an angry father's brutal attack.

Hinata walked around in a daze until she finally made it the Hyuga compound, she walked inside her home and walked past Hanabi without saying a word as she walked up the stairs to her room and quietly shut the door.

Meanwhile the Next Day

"Ino are you certain that Mikado Tae Shin is Naruto Uzumaki?" Sakura couldn't believe what was being told to her.

"Yeah, it seems like Naruto was on some sort of secret mission for the Third Hokage. What I was told was that Naruto got in touch with some of the Hokage's ANBU who he told about Orochimaru's secret plans…he's a certifiable hero!" Ino threw her arms in the air to explain her enthusiasm about Naruto's new title.

"You got to be joking Mikado Tae Shin is that little shit Naruto Uzumaki! He's the one who threw a kunai at my head! He's the one who called me a pink haired twit! I'm going to sock the shit out of him! All of this time he worried Hinata and then tried to seduce her by pretending to be a ninja from the south! That son of a …"

"I'll be very careful about approaching Naruto with that attitude if I were you; he seems to really not like you that much Sakura. Hell he might take more than a slice of your hair this time; he's not the dislikable loser and dead last of the class you remember so fondly. You saw what he did to Neji… just imagine what he might do to you someone who's not on his list of friends." Shikamaru leaned against the wall as the two girls looked at him.

"What's that suppose to mean? I can kick his ass all over the place now that I know it Naruto! If I can't beat him Sasuke definitely could. Right Sasuke?"

Sasuke gave a bored look as he stayed silent at the table.

"Don't bet on it, he's way past Sasuke's level. Hell I think he's comparable to Kakashi or Asuma. Well maybe just a little below them." Shikamaru gave his opinion on the matter.

Those words didn't sit kindly with Sasuke.

"That bastard is no where near my level!" Sasuke stood annoyed at the Nara genius. "I'm rookie of the year…I'm of noble Uchiha blood…"

"That maybe true about your achievement and nobility but he was trained by two of the three legendary Sannin I heard. Plus he took on Gaara and defeated him, I seen that first hand. You know that also since he saved your ass from that psycho from the Suna."

Sasuke wanted to retort but he knew that Shikamaru was right. He heard all of the rumors and he seen the growth of Naruto first hand and it was miraculous on how far he achieved in two years. He needed to come further than the dead last; he needed someone like a Sannin like Naruto have to train him. Maybe Jiraiya of the Legendary Sannin could train him; he took in a loser like Naruto, Jiraiya definitely would be honored to take on the last of the Uchiha as an apprentice. He got up from the table and left the group to their meaningless conversation.

"Shikamaru you asshole! How dare you make Sasuke feel inferior!" Sakura stood up from the table and approached Shikamaru with a killer intent to strike him.

"It's not my fault that Sasuke doesn't stack up to Naruto; you didn't think he would remain the dead last forever did you?" Shikamaru out stretched his shadow to stop the pink hair bully in her tracks." Calm down, all I'm saying is that the Uchiha clan maybe isn't so great after all. Especially since he got upset over a few words that ruffled his tail feathers. And Sakura you and Ino need to stop being his personal cheerleaders, Sasuke needs to shrink his ego and grow in skills if he wants to pass Naruto so bad. I'm pretty sure Naruto didn't remind every body he met about his heritage or skills." Shikamaru let her go and nodded to Choji for them to leave.

Ino knew that Shikamaru was right; Naruto must have worked his ass off to reach the level he was at. Sure Sasuke was a motivated ninja but what was Naruto's motivation to become stronger?

"Sakura I know that Shikamaru seem like an ass but he usually makes a valid point, for now let's check on Hinata to make sure she's okay. Maybe she can also give us some info on Naruto while we're there. As they left the table Sakura thoughts were on Sasuke and on how he felt and what he was going through. All she could think about on hard of a life he had and it was her mission to make him happy once again.

As they made it to the Hyuga compound, they approached Hinata's home and knocked on her door. They were let in by one of the Hyuga servants. The servant called for Hinata to come down as they informed her that she had company. As Hinata came down the stairs she saw Ino and Sakura at the foot of the stairs. Hinata told them to follow her upstairs to her room. As the two best friends followed her to her room and closed the door, they immediately bombarded her on questions about Naruto being Mikado Tae Shin. Question after question she feign ignorance or pretended she didn't know which was basically true.

"Since you obviously didn't come to check on me to see if I'm alright but to confirm some rumors you heard, I suggest you leave my home." Her voice sounded venomous which Sakura and Ino never heard before.

"Umm sorry Hinata that was rather disrespectful of us, we'll show ourselves out you just relax okay." Ino couldn't believe how insensitive she was; she wanted to quell her curiosity at the expense of her friends' emotional turmoil.

Hinata put her head on her pillow and stared at the wall once again.

About an hour later Hinata sat up on her bed as she felt hunger pangs, she decided to go to the kitchen to fix her something to eat. As she was coming down the stairs, she heard her father talking to Hanabi.

"I know that Hinata was always a gentle child but I'm going to have her go and talk to someone if she doesn't show any improvement soon. Right now she not even trying, all she does is sit in that room and mope all day.

"It's that damn Naruto's fault; don't punish Hinata for his wrong doings! I trusted him as well, all she needs is time. Just give her a little bit more time." Hanabi pleaded with her father about the situation

"They still think I'm weak. How come I always take one step forward only to be pushed two steps back every time." Hinata sat on the stairs and hugged her knees to her chest as she silently cried.

She quickly walked back up the stairs and closed the door.

Hinata walked down the stairs all dressed up as both Hanabi and her father looked at her.

"I'm going out with some friends tonight; I'll probably be home late so don't wait up just for me."

Hiashi looked at her and smiled.

"I heard that you had some friends over today, I'm glad they convinced you to go out tonight. Go out and enjoy yourself, lose all your worries tonight." Hiashi was glad that she was finally overcoming her depression.

"You look amazing big sister; you'll have every man in the village drooling over you in that blue dress."Hanabi came over and walked around Hinata admiring how good she looked in that outfit.

"Well I'm off; I don't want to be late meeting my friends." Hinata put on a fake smile as she headed out the door.

As she began to walk away from the compound, she remembered a ninja bar called Shinobi Oasis. It was considered the place to be, many ninjas and civilians visited this tavern in the downtown area.

When she finally arrived at the bar it was barely any customers and only a few females, she decided to order a drink called The First's Favorite. As she sat there quietly sipping on her drink, her mind was a million miles a way. Only one thought crossed her mind a statement that Tayuya said.

"He's my one true love spiritually, physically, emotionally."

That sentence alone was driving her over the edge.

"Hey there sweet cheeks, something on your mind? Maybe I can help you." Said a chunky looking ninja.

Hinata knew from first glance who this guy was, he was Washita Osamu. Her childhood tormentor who use to leave her in tears with cruel words, the destroyer of Naruto's red scarf. She avoided this beastly boy for years and now he was standing over her smiling like he never caused her suffering.

"I would like to be left …..

He quickly sat down next to her.

"So there sweet cheeks what brings a hot girl like you here? Looking for that one true love through alcohol tonight? Well girlie your knight in shining armor is here. As you can tell I'm also a Genin just like you, hell I'll be a Chunin next year we just had a little bad luck at the exams this year. So sweet cheeks you better stake a claim in me now before it's too late, once I become a Chunin there won't be enough of me to go around baby." Osamu moved closer to her and tried to put his arm around Hinata.

She scooted away and removed his arm, "I'm fine I have a fiancée..." Hinata couldn't believe what came out of her mouth she looked immediately depressed.

"What type of loser let's a fine piece of ass like you go out all along? You sure he feels the same as you there sweet cheeks?" He gave a devilish smile with his rotund face.

"Here's your free drink for ladies night, this drink will rock your world." The server looked over toward Osamu and smiled at him with an evil grin.

"Don't drink too much sweet cheeks, why don't we slip out of this bar and go a couple of places my treat. You probably be so impress you'll take me to a love hotel by midnight and have your way with me."

Hinata showed a nauseating smile as she stared him in the eyes.

"I'm fine, like I said I would like to be left alone and enjoy my drink. So could you please leave?" Hinata eyes darted back to the table.

"That's fine sweet cheeks, enjoy your drink." He smiled at Hinata and gently got up and left the table.

About an hour passed and the more she drunk the more depressed she got. She started to feel light headed and decided to get up and get some air. As she looked over she saw Osamu and three of his friends looking at her and smiling, this disturbed Hinata because it was like they were planning something. She thought to herself that she was no longer that scared child and that she was now mastering her Byakugan to its full potential. If he was going to try something he was in for a rude awakening.

As she went outside someone quickly pushed her into a dimly lit alley, she quickly struck her assailant in the mouth with her elbow. She quickly got into her battle stance ready to take on her aggressor.

"Wow she has some fight in her; it's going to be fun to break that spirit of hers." Said the tall boy as he wiped his blood away from his nose.

"Yeah I told you a Byakugan user are tough but look at that body and breast on her." He licked his lips at her suggestively." I'm going to love to suck on those nipples I wonder if they stick out or are they inverted. Oh well I'll find out soon. Hey sweet cheeks I'm going to give you an ultimatum here, have a little fun with all of us and we won't be rough on you. Refusing mean we'll beat the hell out of you and still get what we want. Oh and we will take pictures, you would hate for pornographic photos to be shown to that prestigious family of yours would you?" Osamu moved his followers out of the way as he slowly approached her.

"You think I will just give my body over to some repulsive want- to- be rapist, you forget I'm a kunoichi of Konohagakure and I want be intimidated by the like of you or your thugs." Hinata activated her Byakugan and stared at all five of her attackers.

Suddenly Hinata fell down clutching her head in agony, she tried to get up and everything seemed to spin out off control. Her whole equilibrium was off, she couldn't figure out what was going on.

"For a minute there I thought it was going to be the hard way. See the server is a friend of mine, he slipped a drug into your drink, it's called easy date. This drug slowly eats away your chakra and makes you pass out; since you tried to use that bloodline of yours it probably tired you out quicker than the average person. Grab her and take her were we usually take our so willingly participants. Osamu turned around and walked to the front of the alley.

Hinata's head was splitting she didn't know how much longer she was going to be conscious. She staggered and prepared to fight to her last breath. She quickly threw a strike at the small boy with the big ears. The boy duck the slow pace strike and struck her in the stomach knocking the wind out of her as she hit the ground with a hard thud.

"Stupid don't make me waste my precious energy on you like this, I want to do all sorts of dirty things to you for at least an hour." The small boy stood over her and kept kicking her in the ribs. He lifted Hinata up by her neck and was ready to punch her in the face.

"Hey, hey, hey don't damage that pretty face of hers! I want to look at her while I do her!"

"Hey I'm going first this time! I'm tired of getting the sloppy third and forth. Heck I'm about to tongue kiss this bitch now." He quickly grabbed Hinata by her hair and moved in for the kill.

Hinata closed her eyes; all she could do was brace for this violator's kiss to touch her lips. As he tried to come closer to her face, he found out that he couldn't reach her. Suddenly his hair was being pulled back by a tall blonde boy with whiskers. Naruto quickly used the big eared boys face as a battering ram ,the boy's face went into the wall several times with such force the wall had an imprint of the boy's head. Naruto looked at the boy whom nose was now broken and missing several of his teeth and bleeding profusely through the forehead. Naruto slung the boy to the other side of the wall, as he screamed in pain from the impact, his friends thought they could hear several of his bones shatter from the collision.

"Are you alright Hinata? I was looking for and couldn't find you so I searched for your chakra signature and each time it got weaker, I searched all over this district then all of a sudden a large ping caught my attention. That's how I was able to find you."

"When I used my Byakugan it used the very last of my chakra, they drugged me with some date rape drug." Hinata was barely conscious now.

Naruto placed his glowing hand on Hinata's back."

"This will remove the drug from your system." Naruto's chakra entered Hinata's system and burned away all of the drug presence.

"So you were trying to gangbang my fiancé eh? You got a lot of nerves fat boy! Wait I know you…you're that bully I met when I was younger. You made Hinata cry! That's bad news for you round boy, guess a little payback is in order." Naruto walked slowly toward all five.

"Yeah I remember you too. I whipped the shit out of you in front of that pale eyed bitch over there! I guess me and my friends get to repeat history. Fuck him up where he's unable to move for the rest of his life.

The first assailant ran toward Naruto with a sloppy punch, Naruto moved to the side with ease as he planted his forearm in the boy's sternum lifting him off the ground and planting him firmly into the wall where he remained. The second rushed Naruto with a knife but was struck in the throat so quickly by the blonde ninja that he wasn't even a challenge. As the last two attackers ran toward the blonde simultaneously, there was a red blinding flash. Osamu looked down and saw both of his shinobi friends sprawled out on the pavement bleeding from their mouths. Osamu felt fear for the first time; he had to fight someone all by himself. He quickly turned around to run but was greeted by a fist directly toward his mouth. He received a barrage of angry fists that seemed endless from his blonde attacker.

"I give up so just stop hitting me!"

His words landed on deaf ears as Naruto continued to punish his adversary with blows that were met to cripple. Osamu knew if this continued he would be dead within minutes. He quickly pulled out a kunai and jumped back to get some distance away from the blonde Jinchuriki.

"Now things are getting interesting, make a move pork chop!" It seemed that's what Naruto was waiting for all along.

He quickly swiped at Naruto but missed, he looked down and noticed the kunai was on the ground alongside his fingers. Osamu yelled in pain as Naruto quickly grabbed him by his throat and threw him against the wall. Naruto took out his kunai and stabbed Osamu through his wounded hand as it impaled into the wall.

"Well, well now I'm going to really punish you now, you were going to touch Hinata with those perverted rapist hands right?" Naruto grabbed Osamu's good hand." I'm going to make five points why you picked the wrong woman to try to force your desires on.

"What are you planning on doing?" This made the fat shinobi nervous on how Naruto said that.

"One Hinata is my fiancé."

(Crack)

Naruto broke his pinky with effortlessness.

"Two, I hate rapist!"

(Crack)

As his ring finger was broken as he yelled out in pain.

"Three I remember that ass kicking you gave me."

(Crack)

His middle finger was broken with ease.

"Four this one is just for fun."

(Crack)

"Enough I surrender!" The index finger was pushed all the way back to his wrist.

"Do I look like one of the ANBU?" Naruto gave a fox like grin. Five this is for every woman you raped so far." Naruto was now like a cruel child that pulled the wings of a fly.

(Crack)

His thumb was the loudest sounding of all his fingers being broken.

"Hmm maybe I should take out your eyes as well so you never ever do such appalling things again."

Naruto quickly broke Osamu's arm and then grabbed him by the neck, he quickly withdrew his kunai and steadily pointed to Osamu's left eye. Just as he was ready to stab him in his eye socket Naruto's wrist was grabbed.

"That's enough let him go this instant!" Kakashi put a vice like grip on the young blond wrist as he stared into his eyes.

Naruto just stared right back at the one eye Sharingan user and his only reply was.

"Let go."

As both shinobi released their battle aura to intimidate the other, Naruto looked over and seen a frighten Hinata staring at both of them.

"Fine." Naruto dropped his kunai on the pavement. "Just so you know fat boy here was planning to run a train on Hinata. He drugged her and no telling how many more women that came to this bar." Naruto slowly placed his other hand where Kakashi could see it.

Kakashi slowly released Naruto's hand and checked on the tortured ninja impaled to the wall. Kakashi only shook his head in dismay; he knew that Naruto could never over come his dark side.

Naruto quickly picked up Hinata and vanished from the sewer smelling alley. They arrived about ¼ of a mile away from her home. Hinata looked up as she was carried princess style in Naruto's arm.

"Are you alright Hinata?"

Hinata moved out of Naruto's arm and never said a word as she made her way to her home.

"Hinata what happened at that bar it's not your fault. It's those …"

"It's not my fault, is that what you assume I'm thinking? You're right it's not mines it's yours, if you hadn't deceived me I would have never went to the bar! All you do is lie to me; I'm nothing but a convenient cover for you. Stay away from Naruto forever!"

"Will you just hear me out, please let me explain everything!" Naruto was pleading for one chance.

"Why so you can make me cry some more? You said that you'll always be there for me, now I'm asking you to stay away." Hinata never faced him once, as she turned around he was gone in a flash.

Hinata was about six feet away from her door before she stopped. Why was Naruto looking for me? Why would he protect me? Why did he want me to listen to him? All these questions came into her mind. Her curiosity was getting the best of her, did he really love her? She really didn't let him explain, she was too hurt to even look at him.

"Wait I've been such a fool! I could've just use my Byakugan to see if Tayuya and Naruto were telling the truth. She quickly ran from her porch toward Naruto's house.

Naruto sat on the recliner with his head down looking at the floor, all he could think about was all the things he done wrong with Hinata. All he wanted was revenge and ended up with love instead. As he was snapped out of his thoughts by a series of knocks on the door. He slowly got up from his chair and walked to the door. He slowly opened the door and there stood Hinata, he was lost for words. The only thing that came out of his mouth was …

"Hinata?"

She had so much to say, so much emotion to display. But seeing Naruto's face made something snap.

"NARUTO HOW DARE YOU HURT ME THIS WAY"

Without skill, without technique, without jutsu. She steadily beat Naruto with her hands over and over as she smacked Naruto in the face and chest.

Naruto could hear in the back of his mind the laughter of Kurama.
