“Hinata-chan is that you?!”, asked Raion pulling her into a bear hug “You’ve grown up to such a beautiful young woman”, squealed the blonde. Hinata blushed she had not gotten that complement often . Hinata’s hair was long enough to reach the lowest part of the small of her back and its blue black color had deepened to be more black then blue. Her eyes were still their pale lavender, but her shape had balanced out over the years. Not many outside her family knew all this though because she hid it all beneath a large coat.
“Gomen ne Hinata-chan Raion-obasan is a bit crazy.” apologized Naruto as he rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment. Hinata stared at him then at Raion as the woman released her.
S-s-she’s…..your aunt Na-Naruto-kun?” stuttered Hinata as she played with her fingers. At her crushes nod she smiled. “Y-you two l-look a lot a-alike…“
“It’s getting better…,”commented Raion “I was once told I looked like his father with breasts before Naruto was born. Now I just look like him… oh well.” she shrugged.
“Wait… I look like my father?”, asked Naruto. Raion smacked her hand against her forehead in frustration, as Naruto realized what he had asked and blushed.
“Let’s see…” said Raion folding her arms “If your dad was deemed the village heart throb by his many fan-girls and if I apparently inherited that title with the males when he got married, and I look like both of you, then yeah you look like your father. As I see it you already have a few admirers.” she finished grinning wickedly at Hinata, whose only response was to deepen her blush.
“I…have admirers?” asked Naruto in disbelief. Raion winced in sympathy for poor Hinata before she smacked the clueless boy over the head .
“I’ll explain later baka…” she said,her eye twitching, “ for now lets just get to Ichiraku’s, I’ve been craving Ramen for ages.” grumbled Raion Hinata bit her lip as she realized that she had been keeping them from their destination. “Would you like to join us Hinata-chan?” Raion invited.
Hinata blushed again “Oh n-no I wouldn‘t w-w-want you t-to go through such t-t-trouble” she stammered as she looked longingly in her crushes direction.
“It wouldn‘t be any trouble at all and I‘m sure Naruto-kun would like his friend to join us”, Raion assured her smiling.
“Yah Hinata-chan join us” Naruto agreed, he had found on his many visits to the Hyuga estate that Hinata could be a fun person to be around…when her father wasn’t around of course.
“Besides, I would love to see how much you have changed in the last few years, I insist you come my treat” added Raion, pulling both Hinata and Naruto by their hands giving the lavender-eyed girl no room to argue.
“Neji Could I talk to you for a few seconds.” called out lord Huyga as he crossed the training area.
“Yes Hiashi-sama?” answered Neji as he dropped some weights and un activated Byakugun.
“Have you seen Hinata?” asked Hiashi
I think she turned in early her face was really red when she came home so she may have a fever.” said Neji.
“Do you have any missions today or tomorrow?”
“No.”
“All right, I’m going to need you to translate a few things for me while at a meeting it is of the utmost importance that this is kept quiet understood?”, asked Hiashi .
“What is it?” asked Neji.
“….Do you remember that woman that came yesterday…Raion?” Neji nodded. She dropped off some paperwork but it was all in ANBU code I need you to translate it while I meet with the council they will want to be notified that she has returned.” said Hiashi .
“Yes Uncle.” said Neji as he bowed, he had studied ANBU codes for the upcoming exam and knew it would be a good test of his skill.
The small party arrived Ichiraku’s ramen bar and sat down to order. The owner stared at Raion for a few moments in confusion “Aren’t you supposed to be dead?” he asked in bewilderment. His face showed what little shock he had managed to keep from his voice.
“So I have heared…”said Raion chucking darkly “But then I’ve never been one to listen to rumors, they aren’t allways true” she said giving him a smile.
“Well what ever brought you back It is good to see my favorite customer around again, you want the usual I presume” Teuchi Ichiraku chucked as he poured more noodles into the pot.
“You still remember my usual?” she asked blinking as both Narutos’ and Hinatas’ heads tilted in confusion.
The ramen bar owner nodded “Of course I do how could I forget, anyways tonight it’s on the house.” this made Naruto, who had followed only half of the conversation, and Hinata smile at his generosity, Raion only shook her head.
“I still owe you my last tab”, she argued pulling a black wallet from the pouch at her hip.
Ichiraku gave her a kind smile” consider it a welcome home present” he justified before turning back to his task. Raion reluctantly agreed and put her money purse away. After they had all been served the small party of three said a small prayer of thanks before digging in.
“ Naruto-kun…”said Hinata suddenly catching both blondes attention “A-are you going to participate in the Jonin exam coming up?” she asked, very proud of her minimal stuttering.
Naruto gave her a grin “Definitely, I can‘t let everyone pass me up if I‘m gonna be Hokage, Believe it!” he exclaimed giving her what Lee would have considered a “Might Guy“ thumbs up. Raion sighed as she watched the pair eventually loosing her self in her thoughts, one in particular about a meeting she had had earlier that morning with a certain masked jonnin.
Flash back
Kakashi sighed as he gazed upon the stone memorial that held the names of his closets friends. He fell to his knees as he touched the name of his best friend, Obito then let his fingers trail down to another name, that of his female teammate, Rin. He looked up at his old sensei’s name, the fourth Hokage, Minato, then traced one last name with his finger until he clenched his hand in a fist covering the name completely. “I’m sorry… he said his voice full of regret. “I know that you asked me to protect her with my life… but I couldn’t do it…I wasn’t strong enough to save… you… or her.” he said as a single tear made it’s way from his visible eye and down his cheek. After a few more moments he said a small prayer then stood up. “Kami-sama how I miss you.” he said as he wiped away his tears.
“Miss who?” asked a voice. Kakashi turned on his heel, kunai drawn. When he saw who it was however both he and his heart froze.
“You’re pulling a prank from the after life aren’t you?” he said dropping his kunai . Suddenly he looked up “Kami-sama I’m not sure what I did to deserve this but I apologize for any offence that…”
“I’m alive you knuckle head.” Raion snapped in annoyance as she crossed her arms.
“No… no… either a) you are a spirit who’s come back to have the last laugh or b) I have finally cracked from all the mental stress.” Kakashi argued, closing his visible eye.
“Is that so?” asked the woman as she rose an eyebrow. Suddenly she pulled down his mask and to kissed him passionately on the lips. “Still think I’m dead?” she asked upon releasing him. She received no response for at that moment Kakashi was attempting to commit the kiss permanently to memory. It was the kind of kiss that he had nearly forgotten though his lips had done fine in remembering for him. Oh… he knew it was her! Only she had that kiss, that kiss that only one other person he knew could rival, though he would never admit.
“Raion?” whispered Kakashi, the woman nodded. “But how? I…”Raion put a finger to his lips.
“A question I can’t truthfully answer” she said sadly Kakashi embraced her.
“I’m afraid that this will all be a dream… that I’ll wake up and you won’t really be here.” he said tightening his grip.
“Kakashi of the sharing an eye, the “Great Copy cat ninja” afraid?” she teased. Kakashi shook his head.
“I was afraid when you disappeared I had never been so frightened in my life” he argued holding her at arms length.
“I’m sorry, you know that if I could have come back sooner I…”again Kakashi shook his head
“I know” he said. “listen I will cancel my teams mission so you can see Naruto.
“he‘s on your team?” she asked in disbelief making the masked ninja chuckle then nod. “almost seems like a coincidence ne?” she asked.
“There are no coincidences only blessings from kami.” said Kakashi “now as I was saying I know you want to see him so I will cancel our mission and give the team a week off, then maybe we could catch up on missed times?” He suggested a mischievous glint in his eye” Raion laughed
“Nice try, but not this time ka-kun” she teased giving him a sympathetic smile.
Kakashi cursed under his breath she hadn’t changed at all. The main reason she was nick named Aisu which meant ice was because she could be so cold to the opposite sex even, when it came to it, her own boyfriend. Jariya had always joked that it was because she hadn’t been laid before, and as weird as it sounded this was partly true. In all the years that Kakashi had known Raion she had never done it once, with any one. Oh it wasn’t because she was intent on a virgin marriage, no she could care less about that. It was more of that she had an over the top protective brother, then when he was promoted, an overprotective Hokage for a brother, and after he well…died she had a newborn infant nephew to care for. So that, added to the women are better then men attitude she often carried about her made a woman who wouldn’t exactly jump at the chance for an intimate relationship… at least not yet.
“Fine” he pouted “have it your way but remember to relax after all you haven’t seen him in nearly twelve years” Raion kissed him on the cheek.
“Thank you Ka-kun you’re so sweet.” she said skipping off.
‘Sweet she say’s.’ he thought picking up his discarded kunai and walking in the opposite direction.
End flash back
“Raion-obasan?” asked Naruto as he waved a hand in front of the blonde woman’s face bringing her back to the present. Raion stared at him for a few seconds, regaining her thoughts.
“What...what is it?” she finally responded.
“You all right?” asked Naruto worry etched on his face.
“Yeah… I was just thinking.“ answered Raion as she stood up.
“I-I have to go.“ stuttered Hinata. “B-but thank you for the r-ramen Raion-san.”
“Any time Hinata-chan, and if you need me to pound his head till he gets the hint just give the word he’s just about as bad as his father in that respect you know.” said Raion giving Hinata a wink. Hinata blushed and jogged
“What was that about?” asked the ever clueless Naruto as they too headed for home.” Raion rolled her eyes.
“Definitely as bad as his father” she muttered, ignoring his question, it was getting late now and she didn‘t want to deal with the problems that were sure to ensue if she answered him.
When they reached the apartment, Raion was startled to find an ANBU wearing a bird mask with swirls decorating the beak waiting for them on their doorstep. Raion made eye contact with the masked nin giving a curt nod that did not go unnoticed by her nephew.
“What…” he started but was cut off.
“Naruto, go on inside I won‘t be long.” said Raion sternly.
“Naruto opened his mouth as if to argue but seemed to think better of it and gave her a worried look instead. He had just regained family he had longed for and hadn’t even known existed until today, to loose her now… “Don’t worry I be fine” she reassured as if reading his mind, before walking off with the strange ANBU.
“So What is it…?” I know you aren’t the type to just call some one out for a nice chat.” stated Raion the ANBU looked at her looked at her through the eye holes in his mask for a few seconds in silence before bowing.
“You’re right as always Raion-san” confirmed the Anbu. “I came here to apologize.”
“Save your breath” snapped Raion frowning , a simple apology will do nothing to change the past?” she growled. “I heard what happened to him and I won’t be so forgiving this time. You and every one else should be groveling at Narutos feet for what he has sacrificed and yet I return to find that you are just as bad as the rest of them when it comes down to it.”she growled.
“Raion-sama!” exclaimed the Anbu. It total shock
“I know that the counsel plotted Naruto’s murder the moment I was anounced dead I also know you knew of the murder and though you did not agree with them,you did nothing to dissuade them if it hadn’t been for Sarutobi-sama, god rest his soul, the boy would be long since dead” she snarled glaring at the ANBU before her. “I had half a mind to take revenge for Naruto since he is too soft hearted to do it himself…”
“Raion-sama” interrupted the masked nin “if you are going to that then I will have to stop you.” said the ANBU nervously.
“Relax… I said I had half a mind,… the fact that Naruto still lives and has found people who care for him has put my worries at ease.” said Raion the ANBU stared at her. “Now If you don’t mind I am going back to my nephew, if you need anything I’m pretty sure that the Raccoon would be more than capable handling anything I would.” she said stepping around him.
“She‘s dead.” said the Anbu making Raion stop in her tracks. She turned to face him.
“Did…did she die on a mission?” asked Raion tentatively. The Anbu shook his head. “She died in child birth leaving the child Konahamaru, with her husband.”
“I’m sorry” said Raion
“We almost lost Kakashi first” said the ANBU.
“Say what?!”
“At one point the tried to commit seppuku, the only thing that stopped him was when we reminded him of Naruto.”
Raion felt a chill go up her spine “I’ll send flowers to her grave tomorrow…” She handed an envelop to the Bird ANBU “Tell Tsunade-sama that this is all the paperwork on from the time I left to today….and tell her that I left out certain details because I had to.” said Raion, as she disappeared into the darkness.
Naruto walked to the apartment alone. He opened the door and walked in. he took of his jacket and placed it on the coat rack. He sat on the couch. The Kuybi Carrier looked on the floor and saw a large blood spot on the floor one left by his old sensei from the academy days. He got up and walked over to the kitchen he pulled out a napkin and began cleaning up the blood. Unknown to Naruto the floor was telling a story from nineteen years ago.
(An: There will be an extra side story later about this that we will load up separately)
Naruto awoke in the middle of night. Someone had placed a blanket over him. He looked up and saw him aunt walk into one of the be room Naruto could tell something was troubling her. But felling the strong power of sleep calling out to him he fell asleep once more.
Neji looked over some of the paperwork his uncle told him to translate. He reached out and took a sip of tea juice then placed the cup down and looked at a sheet that he filled out with the translations.
“How’s it coming Neji?” asked Hiashi. Neji looked up at his uncle
“Fine” replied Neji as he took another sip of tea finally finishing of the cup he got up to rinse it out when he glanced at the finished section he had be translating by the letter and had not yet read what the text said. This particular section that made his skin crawl. He quickly placed the glass down and picked the paper up.
“I…never thought..how could this…” he was unable to finish what he was saying”and collapsed into a chair Hiashi ran over and looked at him.
“What is it Neji?!” asked Hiashi worriedly .
“It must be a lie…I-I refuse to believe that my fathers’ death was for…nothing.” said Neji as a small trail of tears ran down his cheek.
