Tanuki lay in the room she and Kaze shared in the tower. She, Kaze and the sand Siblings were the first to arrive. she decided she would go in the preliminaries, but then forfeit afterwards. her bloodlust hadn't been satiated yet.

"Tanuki, I think, before you attack your father, we need to be rid of that cursed seal. the second he realizes who you are, he will use that against you." Kaze dropped his henge, and became Naruto. Tanuki followed suit.

"That is a good point. Though, we should wait till the three month period between the preliminaries and the final exam." Hinata repled.

"That is what I was thinking, Koi. you are intelligent." Naruto purred and crawled onto the bed next to her and pinned her with a hit kiss. Hinata remembered the night he claimed her as his mate (No lemon)

Flashback

Hinata was crying, she had been beaten up, and Naruto had saved her again.

"Koi, I need to be able to mark you as mine. please." naruto wiped blood from his eyebrow, and the split healed.

"H-how?" Hinata stuttered, she was still shy, and terrified of the boy who loved her, who protected her.

"Oh, Hinata-hime, it's not that, not yet." naruto chuckled noting the harsh blush on her cheeks. "it will be kind of like the seal I put on your shoulder, but more… permanent."

"O..Ok." Hinata nodded, weaveing her hands together.

'Hinata, you must understand, you can never leave me if I mark you. you will always belong to me. always." Naruto explained.

"I… Naruto. even Neji has become distant and bitter. you are the only one in the world who cares for me. I will alway be loyal to you." Hinata spoke with a conviction she hadn't had since the night her life was stolen and given to her sister.

"Alright." naruto grabbed her shoulders and nuzzled her neck. Hinata shivered slightly, then gasped as his teeth met her neck, and sunk deep. the pain faded to pure ecstasy and desire. she moaned and hugged herself close to Naruto. he growled animalistically, and bit harder, causing Hinata to gasp. she could feel his chakra flowing into hers, possessive. he removed his fangs and licked Hinata's blood from his lips, Hinata would never forget how he looked just then, his eyes ruby red and glowing in the darkness, a please smirk playing across his lips, his blonde hair wild in the wind.

end flashback

Naruto pulled away and smiled, his eyes were glowing red again,

"What are you thinking about, Koi?"

'When you claimed me." Hinata purred. since then she had been out going and harsh. the shy little mouse had disappeared.

"That was a good night." naruto growled, then went stiff, "Someone is coming." they reapplied their henges and waited, and someone entered. it was Anko.

"I know who you are." she was still facing the door. "Naruto, why did you kill Sakura? and Hinata, you killed Hanabi. you were sworn to protect her."

"Why should I not have killed Sakura?" Naruto dropped his henge again, "And, why should I not kill you?"

"Ibiki knows where i am. If I turn up dead, your cover is blown."

"What do you want, Anko." Hinata stood up and stared at the girl.

"I… I know we can't stop you. If you wished, you could unleashed the Kyuubi upon us. I wish for you to spare some people." NAko said as she turned around, facing the young chunnin hopefuls with a hard gaze.

'Ok, who." Naruto asked, Hinata had a feeling that he was just humoring her.

"the Naras. the Akimichis. the Yamanakas. Rock Lee and Gai. your Brother Hinata, Kakashi. Oh, and Ibiki. Please, by the way, Kill the uchiha brat." she smirked the last bit out.

"You are only wanting to save the decent creatures here." Naruto pointed out.

"Yes. Ibiki and I have been talking, and we think maybe, from the ashes of Konoha, we can bring up a better village, a better home." Anko nodded, 'We can use what you are doing to our advantage."

"Ok. on one condition." Hinata spoke up.

"What is that?" Anko frowned,

"Ibiki is the new Hokage, and I plan on leaving some branch members of the Hyuugas, no more Caged Bird Seals."

'Ok, I can do that." Anko reached out a hand, and Hinata shook it.

Five days later, all the genin were brought down to the Preliminaries. a sick man explained it, and they all waited.

"Neji Hyuga, and Tanuki Ai." Hayate coughed. Tanuki frowned, but jumped down to face her brother. he looked smug, she would have to wipe that smugness off his face.

"You are destined to fail, Tanuki."

"I believe you are wrong." Tanuki purred, and immediately bit her thumb and wiped it across a summoning tattoo on her hand, and Menkoi and Hana appeared on each side of her,

"Menkoi, Hana, if you fuck up this time, you will be in a world of hurt!" Tanuki snarled and began making hand signs, and called out her jutsu, "Twin water bullets!" she put her hands on the two Tanuki, and they opened their mouths and huge bullets of water shot out and at Neji. Neji was able to dodge one, but the other slammed him into the wall. he growled and went after Tanuki and dodged the next bullets, and tried hitting her with his Jukken, Tanuki purred, please that she would be able to use her modified juuken, reversing the form.

"Hana, Menkoi, release!" she called and the two Tanuki vanished, she got into her stance, one arm to the side, the other pointed towards Neji,

"It is a mistake to challenge me, girl." he sneered.

"The Hyuuga family forms and fighting technique is very interesting but, impractical. that is why I came up with, Raken." Tanuki purred, and slammed her fingers into Neji's chest under his sternum, he gasped in pain. "It is the opposite of, Jukken. Jukken," she paused to dodge a hit of Neji's and jabbed him in the side, "is "gentle fist." she slammed her fingers into his leg, and dodged another hit, each of Neji's hits were getting weaker. " Raken, is the 'violent fist'" Tanuki grabbed Neji's hand and lifted his shirt, top show a wide red spot on his stomach where she had hit him first, "Instead of closing your tenketsu, I have ripped them open, and you are essentially bleeding Chakra." Tanuki whispered the last thing, "I wont hurt you any more, brother." then she let go of Neji, "I, Tanuki Ai, forfeit."

I got the idea for Raken in another story, that I read a while ago. I belive it might have been called "The Snake's Students" so aside form the name, Raken doesn't belong to me.
