A Chance Meeting Chapter 3, a naruto fanfic

AN: WOOOOOTTTTT!!! You guys loved Chapter 2!!! I love all of you lol. 2,400+ hits, 40 alerts and 20+ favs! Fuck hoping this story becomes the best Hanabi/Naruto story. I know its going to be when I'm done! You guys have deserved an update and more. I'm sorry it wasn't sooner, just there's a lot of things I've been trying to figure out in the future. I got big plans for Naruto and Hanabi in the Chounin exams and …other things. Hehehe. (Nothing perverted…yet! Kukuku)

Thank you for all the great reviews. It seems I was right. You guys just needed a little taste of the main course, not just an appetizer. In response to the couple suggestions of not writing scenes over and over again, I understand it can be confusing, but it's honestly the first time I've written like that. Plus, there is a reason for this. I'm purposely doing the scenes from everyone's point of view. I feel there is no better way to introduce someone then to show you what they think and feel on the inside, especially when they're the main characters. I realize a mix of 3rd person and 1st person is kind of weird…I had to type it after all. It probably won't happen too often. I don't know.

And since everyone liked the uber fluff in the last chapter, there's going to be a little more for you in this as well. Also, this is my first real fight scene so I hope you guys like it. Those things take forever to type. Enjoy Everyone. (Edited and ready to be read :-P)

PS: Check out Jetslinger's story "Melody of the Fox", it kind of inspired me to start my own crack pairing. It's Naruto/Tayuya, and it's a beast!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or anyone from the Naruto universe. Any of the few original characters I may make in the future I do own though. You've got to ask permission first if you want to borrow them.

The Confrontation

Twice! That glorified slave dared to insult him and his parents not once, but twice! Fuck the little bitch that ran in the alleyway. He knew what she was up to. She was going to try to save that demon spawn. He would defeat Hizashi quickly then kill her too for the hell of it. She was too late, if the Jinchuuriki had finally died, he was sure that he wouldn't be coming back.

Letting his rage finally get the best of him, Shisui let out an infuriated cry as he rushed towards Hizashi, who calmly slid into a seemingly relaxed Jyuuken stance. His intimidating Byakugan taking in everything around him. From the smug expression on his face, Shisui could tell that Hizashi wasn't taking him seriously; he would make him pay for that.

Rushing in quickly, Shisui crouched down on his hands and knees and attempted to deliver a brutal kick to Hizashi's stomach. Hizashi quickly latched onto his left ankle with his right hand to halt the attack. Using his momentum, Shisui then tried to deliver a follow up kick to right side of Hizashi's head. It was swiftly intercepted by Hizashi's other hand before it could connect. Before Shisui could do anything else, Hizashi tightened his grip on both of his legs and hurled them into the air in an attempt to throw him off balance.

Shisui expertly recovered in the air by performing an impromptu back flip. The second his feet touched the ground; stumbling ever so slightly, he lifted his head just in time to see a palm thrust intent on hitting him in the middle of his chest. Moving on instincts alone, he arched his back as far as he could, anchoring his feet to the ground with chakra so he didn't fall.

His eyes widened as he watched the palm thrust through the air where his chest had just been merely a second ago, his Sharingan actually seeing the small pulse of chakra as it was expelled from the offending palm before vanishing into thin air. If it hadn't of been for his Sharingan, he doubted he would have been able to dodge the debilitating attack in time.

Hizashi merely raised an eyebrow in amusement. It seemed he had been expecting the fight to be over quickly. He slightly scowled when Shisui swiftly kicked his still outstretched arm aside before quickly jumping back a few yards to gain distance between them.

Realizing how close he had come to losing the fight, Shisui's resolve started to crack and fall to pieces as he started to think rationally once again. 'That was too close for comfort. If I don't fight with my all, that bastard will eventually close off every one of my tenketsu points and I'll be left unable to use my chakra. Maybe I should retreat for now…the Sandaime won't be here for a few more minutes…I can always teach this fool his place some other time…'

Shisui was immediately ripped from his thoughts by an amused chuckle from his opponent. Shisui couldn't help but sneer at the smug expression that still adorned Hizashi's face. Before he could say anything, Hizashi beat him to the punch.

"These eyes of mine…they tell me everything. Do you know what their telling me at this very moment? There telling me that you've all ready lost the will to fight and are trying to think of a way to escape even as we speak. It's a shame, I expected more from one of the strongest of the Uchiha clan. Imagine if your parents could see the coward that their son has become. I'm sure they would be shamed beyond words..."

Hizashi was cut off by an unexpected scream from Shisui that was now clutching his head in agony, hunched over, and screaming at the top of his lungs, "SHUT UP! SHUT UP, SHUT UP SHUT UP!!! I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!!!" Hizashi finally wiped the smug expression from his face for good and slid into another Jyuuken stance. It seemed he was finally taking this serious now.

Shisui, on the other hand, was in a state of undeniable insanity. The comment about his parents once again brought him back to the night of their deaths, effectively driving him into a crazed bloodlust once more. He was going to do everything within his power to kill this man. He didn't care if the Sandaime captured him. He didn't care if the fucking brat managed to revive the demon child. He vowed that he would fuck Hizashi up, no matter what.

Shisui immediately formulated a crazy, yet brilliant plan with which to attack the Hyuuga with that was sure to make the white-eyed bastard regret he ever insulted him or his parents.

He slowly raised himself from his crouched position until he was standing normally, his head down so that his long dark-brown hair obscured his entire face from view. At least from everyone else except Hizashi. He slowly raised his head until his crazed red and black Sharingan met the cold white eyes of Hizashi's Byakugan. Hizashi seemed to tense slightly at the crazed expression on Shisui's face.

Shisui smiled gleefully at this before slowly putting his hands together in preparation for using a Jutsu that he knew would give him the perfect opening to attack his enemy. The tomes of his Sharingan began to twirl rapidly as he taunted Hizashi and flashed through his hands seals…

"Let's see how you stand up to this Hyuuga slave. Just remember this, should you lose, I'm going to have fun with that little bitch of a daughter of yours before I kill her."

The look of pure rage that passed over Hizashi's face only served to make Shisui flash a sinister smirk as he finished his chain of hands seals...

"Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu!!!"

The Roof Tops above the Alley Way

Shisui had found five of the best ANBU in Konohagakure who sympathized with his cause and wanted to rid Konoha of the demon brat as bad as he did. He had somehow even managed to make sure they were all assigned to the same sector of Konoha on this predetermined date. The Uchiha had planned everything by himself, and it seemed he knew how to use the power his name brought him to its fullest advantage.

The five treasonous ANBU had been skeptical at first and had almost refused, but when they were given a hefty payment for their services, they decided they would give the kid his shot. The Uchiha clan's vast fortune had insured their services.

The day had been going so very well for the five Konoha ANBU that lurked on the rooftops of the alleyway. They had followed the Jinchuuriki to this very alley and pointed out his hiding spot under a small box to the young Uchiha who had enlisted their aid in this assassination. They all watched the events that took place below them with a mixture of hopeful anxiety and wary apprehension.

They had all tensed in fright when the child pretended that he was the demon they all feared, but they quickly spotted the ploy. A couple of them even chuckled as Shisui proceeded to beat the living hell out of the kid before hurling him into a wall. When they saw Shisui preparing for the kill, they had been getting ready to depart, as it'd be best if they were not seen by anyone at the scene of a murder. Even if it was the murder of Konoha's very own Jinchuuriki. That was when all hell broke loose.

The demon child let out an unholy roar that made the very buildings they stood on shake from its incredible force. Then they felt the terror wave right after that. The ANBU wearing an alligator mask fell to his knees and clutched at his chest, breathing deeply. He seemed to be reliving a horrible moment in his past. Most likely the night the Kyuubi attacked the village four years ago. The ANBU behind him wearing a dog mask kneeled down and tried to calm his comrade down as best he could.

The rest of the ANBU looked for Shisui and found him against a wall on the other side of the street in a small crater. The only female ANBU in the group, wearing a black raven mask, slowly began to withdraw the katana strapped to her back, intent on finishing the job, but was halted by their leader.

The ANBU wearing a white and black tiger mask released the woman's arm after shaking his head from side to side, effectively making her stand down. After motioning down to the Jinchuuriki, she understood why.

They all watched as Shisui slowly made his way towards a now unconscious Naruto. They figured either Shisui found some way to knock him out, or the exhaustion from that roar did. It didn't matter. Now the boy could kill the demon and they could all flee the area before returning and pretending they had just arrived and feign ignorance about the whole ordeal. The Sandaime would undoubtedly be pissed at them, but other then a ridiculously boring lecture and maybe a drastic pay cut, they were sure they would get off scot-free. Its not like they were going to be experiencing money problems anytime soon.

When Shisui looked up to them for confirmation that they would stand lookout and warn him if someone dangerous was approaching, the leader of the ANBU squad gave him a slight nod. Though in reality, they were sure they would simply protect their own asses and leave the Uchiha to bide themselves time to escape suspicion.

They were all outraged when they saw the Uchiha start to strangle the kid instead of killing him right away. The woman with the raven mask screamed in anger and disbelief, "What the fuck is the brat doing! Why is he fucking playing with the kid when he should be killing him! Doesn't he realize that all of Konoha is now on high alert and that everyone and their brother is going to be here soon?! You know the Hokage has got to be coming as well! We've got to get out of here!!!"

The leader merely continued to stare down at the Uchiha as he strangled the blonde headed child. The various mood swings the boy was going through were a clear sign that he was mentally insane. He had seen some of his best friends and comrades fall victim to it.

Being an ANBU, you sometimes had to go on near suicidal missions and you had to witness and carry out things that could easily destroy a human's gentle psyche. He decided he would give the boy a few more minutes before they abandoned him to his fate.

The group quieted immediately when their leader made a simple hand sign that stood for silence. It was immediately followed up by another sign for "prepare to head out". The leader watched as the boy began to cry as he continued to strangle the Jinchuuriki. He had no doubt realized that he had failed. The Leader could still sense the demon child's chakra signature. It seemed his greediness to make sure the boy suffered had ensured his failure. Apparently a demon vassal couldn't be killed by such means.

The leader decided the Uchiha was on his own when a small crowd of rowdy villagers surrounded the entrance to the alleyway. The Uchiha had drawn far too much attention to carry out a simple assassination. He had dug his own grave, might as well let him lay in it too.

Without turning around, he quickly barked orders to his comrades that had been eerily silent the entire time. "Let's get out of here. The Uchiha has failed to kill the demon. I can sense the Sandaime's chakra signature closing in fast. This entire endeavor was apparently doomed from the start."

The only thing that greeted his ears in response was more eerie silence, besides the curses and cheers of the villagers below. He immediately sensed that someone was behind him. How the unknown assailant had snuck up so close to him without his noticing, he did not know. All he knew was that he was aware of his presence now and was ready should the assailant make his move.

When he heard the soft thud of a body hitting the ground, he immediately went into action. He flung himself around, kneeling into a defensive crouch, his katana halfway drawn; ready to slice whoever dared to attack him in two.

The only thing he saw was a pair of blood red eyes with three black tomes around the pupils spinning wildly in a hypnotic motion; merely a few inches from his own. His world went dark in an instant. The only things he heard before falling into unconsciousness was the clatter of his katana on the roof and a very cold voice whisper to him in a disgusted tone...

"Pathetic..."

A Few Blocks Away...

A little raven haired boy wearing a blue shirt and white shorts ran aimlessly down yet another street, looking every which way in the hopes that he would find his brother, panic written clearly on his face. He had found it impossible to keep up with his brother's impressive speed and had lost him several minutes into the chase. Now he wasn't sure where he was even going and was beginning to feel more then a little anxious. If his brother had to come find him, he was going to be in so much trouble when they got home.

The best he could do at this point was head in the direction he thought his brother went and pray to Kami-sama he found him. He was beginning to realize that it had been a really bad decision to disregard his brother's orders and try to follow him. He would rather take a hit to his pride instead of a hit to his bottom from his father.

No matter how many times he tried to tell himself differently in his mind, Sasuke Uchiha was utterly and hopelessly lost...

In the Alleyway

Hanabi was at a loss as to what was happening to her at that very moment. She couldn't recall ever experiencing this unusual feeling quite as strongly as she was right now. She couldn't understand why her heart was racing so rapidly, or why her face felt incredibly warm, nor that her hands were starting to become slightly sweaty. This feeling completely overshadowed the small boost to her pride at succeeding in saving the boy's life.

How seven little words could leave her so flustered was completely beyond her.

Her angelic white eyes took in the slightly dirt-smudged face of the sleeping blonde haired boy that was the cause of her current predicament. She had unknowingly put the boy's head in her lap when he fell unconscious again to make sure he was still breathing.

After exhaling a small sigh of relief, she couldn't help but gasp in surprise when it finally donned on her that she still had a boy's head in her lap. Fortunately for Naruto, she decided it would be best to just leave him where he was instead of dropping his head unceremoniously onto the ground.

It just wouldn't seem right to be so rough with someone after they had come so close to death only moments earlier. At least that's what she told herself anyway. She ignored the little voice in the back of her head that told her that she simply enjoyed the pleasant warmth Naruto's head gave her.

Examining his face thoroughly, she noticed three small scars on each cheek that greatly resembled whiskers. Maybe they were some kind of birthmark? She didn't know, all she did know was she had to touch them. Letting her curiosity get the best of her, she gently pressed her hand against his right cheek and ran her fingers over the grooves of each scar. She found them to actually be very soft and kind of nice to touch.

She was taken aback for a moment when the boy subconsciously nuzzled his cheek against her hand, seeking more comfort from her fingers' gentle touch. A small smile graced her lips as she resumed gently rubbing his cheek.

She then took notice of his somewhat long, shaggy blonde hair. It was pretty matted and messy, she wondered when the last time it had seen a brush was. Slowly running her left hand through it, the texture of his hair was something she had never really felt before. It reminded her of a mixture between hair and fur. It, like everything else about the boy was odd, but not unpleasantly so.

Hanabi couldn't help but smirk a little bit when she heard the boy started to make a low rumbling noise in his chest that sounded awfully a lot like a purr. A cruel idea began to form in her mind that she just had to try out. Stopping her ministrations on his cheek and scalp, she was delighted for some unknown reason when she heard what sounded like a small pitiful whimper from him. Was her touch really having that much of an effect on him? Why did that make her so excited?

After resuming her soothing massages of the boy's cheeks and scalp, Hanabi couldn't help but wonder who this mysterious blonde haired, beautiful blue eyed boy was. Nor could she stop wondering why she wanted to know so badly…

The last thing Hanabi took into account was the boy's clothes. He had on a torn and ragged black shirt and very dirty grey colored shorts. Upon closer inspection, she realized that they had actually been white once. She couldn't understand why the boy was so dirty and was wearing basically rags.

'Doesn't his parents ever buy him clothes or make him bath?'

Stopping to think reasonably for a second, she knew any self respecting parent wouldn't let their child live in such a way…that's when a very sobering thought came to mind.

'Does he...even have parents? Does he even have a home?'

She tried to imagine having to live by herself without her father being there to watch over her and take care of her. The thought alone brought pained tears to her eyes as she gazed back down at the boy's face. 'If that's true...how could you stand all the pain and loneliness...I...I don't think I'd be able handle it...you must be so strong...'

She watched as the occasional tear fell onto the boy's cheeks, giving the allusion that he was crying with her. She was so overwhelmed with admiration for the boy; she did something very uncharacteristic of her at that moment. She slowly leaned over and placed a small, gentle, heartfelt kiss on the boy's cheek.

'From this day forward, I vow to be your friend and will always be there for you...no matter what...'

The Confrontation

You know that feeling when you've waited too long to take care of something and when you're finally about to, you realize its too late and it comes back to bite you in the ass? Well no one was experiencing it quite like Hizashi was at that very moment.

After easily countering the demented Uchiha's attacks, he had thrown a somewhat half-hearted palm thrust aimed at the boy's chest. The Uchiha had barely dodged it, but instead of following it up with another attack which was sure to hit since the Uchiha was in such a compromising position, he decided he would play with the boy some more.

After letting the Uchiha gain some distance between them, Hizashi read the boy's tense posture and watched his wondering eyes. It was easy to see what they boy was thinking of doing, even without his Byakugan. The boy was thinking of fleeing. A very logical choice considering his circumstances, but Hizashi knew just what button to press to make the Uchiha lose any sense of logical reasoning what so ever.

Before Shisui could make any attempt to flee, Hizashi decided it was now or never and drew the boy's attention back to him with an amused chuckle. With the boys attention focused squarely on him once more, Hizashi addressed him with an arrogant and very condescending tone…

The boy's immediate reaction to the taunt was what Hizashi had expected given the boy's unstable mentality. While he had expected the boy to foolishly attack him in a blind rage once more, what he saw started to make him regret his decision to not end this when he had the chance.

The boy's face had become confident. Instead of recklessly attacking him, he was formulating a plan of attack. This was not what Hizashi had been expecting. When he saw the boy look from side to side for a moment to look at the small crowd of villagers around them, he was instantly filled with dread. 'Surely the boy doesn't mean to...'

Shisui then began to form hand seals, the tomes of his Sharingan twirling in a wild frenzy as he addressed Hizashi with a sadistically gleeful smile on his face.

"Let's see how you stand up to this Hyuuga slave. Just remember this, should you lose, I'm going to have fun with that little bitch of a daughter of yours before I kill her."

While Hizashi's face was contorted with rage at the retort, he couldn't help the cold shiver that ran down his spine at those words. He had momentarily forgotten that Hanabi was in danger now as well. He hoped she had managed to save Naruto. The boy deserved better then this. He silently vowed to look after his old friend's son should the boy pull through.

It seemed that he would definitely have to end this with the next strike. He would never let this little brat harm his precious daughter. He quickly wiped the smug expression from his face and effortlessly slid into another Jyuuken stance. The games were over as of now; it was kill or be killed.

"Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu!!!"

Shisui instantly produced several small, high-speed fireballs in a wide arch towards him. It wasn't that Hizashi couldn't dodge them, hell it would be child's play to dodge such a simple attack, but the insolent villagers behind him wouldn't be so lucky. 'Coward, attacking the villagers in an attempt to make me drop my guard...'

Moving as quickly as he could, he immediately began to expel a large amount of chakra around his body and started to twirl rapidly like a top. 'Hakkeshō Kaiten!!!'

The advanced Hyuuga technique that had quickly become known as an absolute defense easily halted the fireballs which were simply extinguished as they came into contact with the violently rotating blue dome of chakra. Hizashi had effectively protected not only himself, but also all of the ignorant and now very shaken villagers behind him as well.

When the last of the fireballs where blown out, Hizashi slowly began to slow down his rotating until he finally came to an abrupt stop, blowing wind and dust everywhere. His robes fluttered helplessly in the strong wind his technique created.

Hizashi quickly looked to where Shisui was, only to see him fade from view the next instant. The boy had completely vanished from view. 'Shunshin no Jutsu' Hizashi quickly surmised. The second he recognized the technique, he couldn't help but smirk.

Sure enough, his Byakugan easily detected the small flash of chakra as Shisui rematerialized behind him. Without even turning, Hizashi swiftly blocked a powerful kick aimed at the right side of his face. He couldn't help but be amused at the look of utter shock on Shisui's face. Sure the boy was incredibly fast, and without the Byakugan, he might actually prove to be a worthy adversary, but that was just it.

Even if his physical form disappeared from view, his chakra signature still gave his position away. Seeing Chakra was only all too simple for a Hyuuga. No matter how fast the boy moved, Hizashi would always see him coming from a mile away. If this was the best that Shisui could offer, then this match was already over.

Shisui seemed to smirk once more for no apparent reason, causing Hizashi to narrow his eyes in response. The boy seemed to still have something up his sleeve. Shisui then proceeded to disappear from view once more before he even hit the ground. Hizashi merely slid back into his stance, waiting for the next attack. When he saw an opening, he would end this in one strike...

A Couple of Minutes Away...

Sarutobi sprint rapidly from roof top to roof top with renewed vigor. His ANBU escorts lagging behind ever so slightly. He would be sure to increase their exercising regime when he regained control over his panicked village. It disappointed him greatly to see that Konoha's elite had become so weak during this extended period of peace. Shinobi were originally meant to be tools of war, and they tended to become dull and brittle when allowed to settle.

The Sandaime had been annoyed beyond belief when they had had to halt their search for Naruto to take a few minutes to rescue some villagers trapped inside, and on the roof of a burning building. He was glad that he had prevented more casualties, but his main attention was focused on finding Naruto. The second he and his escorts had saved the last villager, he felt a cold sensation shoot down his spine when he could no longer sense Naruto's chakra signature.

Sarutobi couldn't detect any sign of Naruto anywhere. Hell even the demonic chakra he had been faintly emitting had vanished. That could only mean one thing, either Naruto had left Konoha's walls…or he had died. Sandaime was willing to bet it was the latter. A sickening feeling of dread settled in the pit of his stomach at that thought.

Without even addressing the villagers or his escorts, he had sped off in Naruto's direction once more, more determined then ever to reach the boy in time. He was only a couple of minutes away and there was going to be hell to pay if the boy really was dead.

'Please hang in there Naruto, I'm on my way!'

The Confrontation

Hizashi had to admit that there was indeed a reason to fear this boy. His unrelenting attacks matched with his surreal speed were truly a devastating combination that he didn't know wither he'd be able to handle or not without his Byakugan.

While he had still managed to easily dodge and swipe away every attack the Uchiha threw at him, he couldn't help but marvel at the potential the boy possessed. If Shisui wasn't a total nutcase who just killed an innocent child, Hizashi would have assumed that the boy could become one of the strongest in Konoha in a few years.

Unfortunately for Shisui, he didn't have a few years left. He didn't even have a few minutes left. Hizashi had closely analyzed Shisui's attack pattern and had easily discovered the boy's weakness. Throughout the entire onslaught, he noticed that Shisui seemed to be favoring his left shoulder. Upon closer inspection with his Byakugan, he noticed a small fracture in the boy's collar bone. He probably received it during Naruto's demonic howl.

That would be where he would strike when the boy left an opening. As if on queue, Shisui rematerialized to his left, swinging a suddenly very sloppy punch in a wide arch aimed at the left side of Hizashi's face. It was immediately swiped away followed up by a swift palm thrust to the boy's injured shoulder, precisely where his fracture was.

Time seemed to stop completely as Hizashi's hand made contact with Shisui's shoulder. Shisui managed to turn his head and watched as the palm lightly made contact with his shoulder. His Sharingan stopped spinning and simply widened in horror as he watched the small pulse of chakra enter his body and exit out his back.

The result was immediate. Shisui gasped in shock and awe as he was forced to take a step backwards out of impulse. He grimaced as his face contorted with intense agony, a small stream of blood starting to trickle out of his mouth and down his chin.

Hizashi, already determining that the boy had lost and wouldn't be able to continue, decided there was no point in finishing the boy. The Sandaime would be there soon, and then the boy would have to answer for his crimes. He wouldn't give the brat an easy way out. He would pay for what he did to Naruto. He would see to that…

He had been so preoccupied with determining wither to kill the boy or not, he didn't realize that his hand was still against Shisui's chest until Shisui firmly gripped its sleeve with his injured arm. Before Hizashi could move, his other arm was firmly gripped in Shisui's other arm as well. He stared down into Shisui's face to see him smirking up at him.

Before he could do anything else, Shisui pulled down on Hizashi's arms with all his might, effectively bringing Hizashi down towards him so that he could deliver a brutal knee to his stomach. Hizashi's eyes widened in shock as the air in his lungs left him in a rush.

Shisui let out an amused chuckle before lowering his leg and delivering another devastating blow with his knee, this time to Hizashi's chin. Hizashi was utterly stunned beyond words as he stumbled backwards a few feet before regaining his senses. He couldn't believe what had just happened. The boy had landed not only one, but two blows on him!!!

He realized his mistake almost immediately. The boy had purposely been drawing attention to his shoulder, and had even let him hit it on purpose. All to make Hizashi lower his guard so that he could deliver a couple of ridiculously painful chakra infused blows with his knee. The pain in his stomach was almost excruciating, he had to have extensive internal injuries. He'd have to worry about that later; right now he had to focus on the Uchiha. One thing was for sure...this boy truly was amazing...

Hizashi wiped a small trickle of blood from his chin before closing his eyes and sliding into his favorite Jyuuken stance. One that was meant solely for killing with lethal and precise attacks. He would kill the boy should he attack him once more. He slowly closed his eyes, calmly watching everything around him slow down more then ever before with his Byakugan.

Shisui then addressed Hizashi one final time as his body slowly started to deteriorate into thin air from the feet up. "That's right. Close your eyes, it will all be over soon slave. I'll make it quick and painless for you..." With that he vanished completely.

Hizashi couldn't help but smirk at that. He was thinking the exact same thing.

It seemed as if the Uchiha had disappeared for good, until there was a strong gust of wind and he suddenly rematerialized out of thin air, his body flying backwards for several yards before slamming into a wall which he slid down until his feet touched the ground. He was leaning against the wall for support, his hair completely shrouding his face from view, and coughing up excessive amounts of blood. The Hyuuga was still standing in the same spot, his robes fluttering around him in the powerful winds. All that had happened within that instant had been simply too fast for the villagers to see.

The Final Blow

Focusing all of his attention to finding Shisui's location, Hizashi was pretty impressed with the speed the boy was displaying now. The Uchiha had infused a lot more chakra into his technique this time around and was easily moving much faster then he was before. If Hizashi underestimated the boy now and made a mistake, it could easily mean his life.

It had been one of the faintest flashes he had ever seen, but his Byakugan still picked it up. A black and white Shisui rematerialized in front of him and to his left side. He had apparently drawn a kunai out while he had been moving and was holding it in his right hand at an inverted angle best used for offense. Hizashi watched in slow motion as the boy swung backwards in a wide arch, intent on obviously slitting his throat.

Waiting until the last possible nanosecond, Hizashi expertly dived below the swing. Shisui's eyes widened in horror as his Sharingan saw the impending danger, but his body was not fast enough to react.

Hizashi slowly raised his right arm in front of him before thrusting his left palm into the Shisui's stomach, lifting the boy off his feet. Shisui's eyes widened even more, threatening to fall out of their sockets. Unfortunately for him, Hizashi wasn't done yet. Moving with an unseen elegance and unmatched fluid motion, Hizashi barely retracted his hand before beginning to twirl in place once again. Releasing a smaller, more condensed amount of chakra, he started an instant Kaiten that not only immediately disarmed Shisui, sending the kunai sailing, but held him in mid air for what seemed like an eternity before abruptly and very violently tossing Shisui away from him into a wall. Effectively forcing all the villagers nearby to scurry out of the way to avoid injury.

Hizashi instantly halted his rotation once more and stood facing Shisui with a cold glare gracing his features. The boy was finished. Now all that remained was to deliver the final blow.

'It's over...time to finish this...'

Unforeseen Occurrences…

Shisui doubted he had ever been in as much pain as he was right now. The intense pain in his shoulder had been bearable, but the blow to his stomach had left him with extensive heavy damage. To what extent he did not know since he could not see inside of himself. His vision was beginning to fade in and out and he couldn't stop coughing up blood. Strangely enough, he was content with this. He had managed to kill the demon spawn. That was all that mattered to him. Even losing to this worm didn't seem to matter to him. All he could do was think of about his parents...

'It seems like I'll be coming to meet you two soon. Kaasan...Otousan...How I've missed you. I can't wait to see you again...'

He raised his head to glare at Hizashi through his bangs. The Hyuuga seemed to peer over at the alleyway before smiling. Seeing that smile instantly made Shisui's heart plummet. He already knew what Hizashi was going to say before he even started moving his lips.

"What a shame. It seems you failed Shisui. The boy still lives. How Ironic that you would end up dieing for your foolishness just like your parents...it ends here. Go to the hell knowing that the will to live of a small child was too much for you to overcome..."

While Shisui couldn't help but sneer in disgust at the taunt, his mind was thrown into utter chaos. One part of him wanted to die to be with his parents...the other part wanted to kill the demon to avenge his parents. He knew if he didn't do something quick, he was going to die. Hell, the Sandaime would be there within a minute or so, and he might as well kill himself before he got captured by him. The punishment for his crimes would be a slow and most assuredly very painful death.

Before he could think of a way out of this predicament, Hizashi raised his right hand and cocked it back, preparing to charge Shisui and deliver the final blow. Then, crouching ever so slightly before taking off, Hizashi rushed towards Shisui, intent on putting the tormented Uchiha out of his misery.

Shisui's mind only drew a blank as Hizashi got closer and closer. This was really it. He was going to die. He knew the ANBU had probably abandoned him a long time ago. There would be no miracles this day to save his wretched life.

The distinct sound of something slicing through the air drew his attention to a nearby roof-top. His blood red and black eyes widened in shock once again…

Maybe he had spoken too soon...

Down the Street

Sasuke was smiling from ear to ear as he saw a small crowd in the distance. This had to be it. He had finally found where his brother was. After finally reaching them, he quickly navigated his way through the crowd of villagers fairly easily thanks to his small size. After he finally broke free of the villagers, he only managed to take a few steps before freezing in place, his eyes widened in shock at the site that greeted them.

In his stunned state, he didn't even bother to notice the discarded kunai that lay on the ground merely a foot or so from him...

The Betrayal

Thunk...Thunk...Thunk...Thunk...Thud

Those were the only sounds heard as four Kunai impaled a stunned Shisui to the wall he was against, and one lone kunai with an explosion tag attached landed in the earth in front of Hizashi.

Hizashi, having already seen the kunai coming with his Byakugan had halted his charge and jumped back a safe distance from the Kunai. He instantly turned to look up at the rooftop where the kunai had been thrown from, only to see nobody there. When he looked back to where Shisui was, his eyes widened in shock when he saw who his assailant was.

The stunned white eyes of Hizashi's Byakugan clashed with yet another pair of red and black three tomed Sharingan.

The cold and emotionless Sharingan of Itachi Uchiha.

OK, I had like easily 10 more pages worth of stuff I was going to put in this chapter but I'm tired, so I'm going to cut it off here. Sorry that this chapter is shorter then 10k words. I'll try to make the next one about that length.

Hope you liked the moment between Hanabi and Naruto, tried to make it seem very cute, while being very serious as well. At least we know Hanabi 'admires' Naruto greatly for enduring his struggles. It'll be kind of interesting when Naruto wakes up and they get to really meet each other.

I hope Shisui didn't come out as "Too Strong", they only real reason he got those blows in on Hizashi was because of a combination of cunning and Hizashi vastly under estimating him. All I know is there's going to be a big surprise next chapter as far as Shisui is concerned. Plus the Sandaime will arrive (Finally god dammit!!!)

It seems like there will still be a few more chapters before we get to them being teens…(dammit)…I hope that doesn't upset anyone. There are still some things I have to do for this to work. Plus I got to set up some things so that they make sense when I make the time skip. This bitch is going to take forever to type lol.

Since Naruto had Zero airtime this chapter, I'm going to make sure the next or the one after is practically all about him. He deserves it. I'm also going to update my bio with descriptions for how some of the characters look so you can imagine them better in your mind while you read. It helps me anyway when I'm reading. Review if you liked or not, just hold the flames please! I felt slightly dissapointed by this chapter, so the next one is gonna be super badass for you guys. Holla!

(Is officially tired of writing the words "Shisui" and "Hizashi" and faints from exhaustion…)
