Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Hinata's Secret Life ❯ Itachi's return and Hinata's training ( Chapter 5 )

Itachi's return and Hinata's training

 

Itachi showed up for the first time in December and it was a moment no one would ever forget. Hinata and Malina were up at the crack of dawn fighting with kunai's to make sure Malina was going to be able to protect herself and Hinata incase something should ever go wrong. Just as Malina was charging to hit Hinata she found herself on her back. Looking up she ended up staring into dark red eyes, the eyes of the sharringan.

 

“Itachi NO” Hinata ran screaming to where Itachi had a kunai against Malina's next. “She's a friend not an enemy. Please let her up and I will explain inside.”

 

With that Itachi let Malina up and followed the two of them into the house. Itachi had changed in the years that Hinata had seen him. He was pretty tall at six feet tall and still had the black hair with red eyes. He wore black ninja pants with a black shirt under his black cloak with red clouds all over it. His straw hat did nothing to him but make him look more mysterious. Every couple of steps to the house Malina was seen glancing at Itachi with a small blush on her face.

 

With everyone in the kitchen and the proper seals done to insure they could speak in peace is when Itachi finally started to speak. His voice was soft and smooth and with the sound of it Malina was melting. Taking a sip of the tea placed in front of him he started to talk.

 

“It's been years Hinata. I think the last time I saw you, you were six. You have grown up well. I was told you were to expect me now answer me this who is this girl and why does she know what's going on?” Itachi said with a cold, calculating glare.

 

Taking in a deep breathe Hinata began the tale of meeting Malina and why she was training her. When she got around to mentioning her pregnancy Itachi spit out his tea in shock and within seconds was threatening to kill the bastard that forced himself on her but was shocked into silence when Hinata admitted what happened, and the tale they were telling the villagers about her being a widow. Then Itachi started to laugh when she told him about when her morning sickness left and now she had a constant craving for Hitachi's Ramen, that's all she wants all the time is ramen. When he was done laughing he looked at Malina and started to speak.

 

“Looks like I owe you some thanks then, Malina was it?” Itachi asked with a small smile. “I am glad that Hinata made a friend in her times of need. Now with you nearing your fifth month of pregnancy Hinata, you know the rules about combat and chakra. Noticing Malina's blank look Itachi explained “After the fourth month of pregnancy most shinobi's had to stop training because by then they run the risk of using the child's chakra. A mother has been known to accidentally use what she thought was chakra reserves and later finding out she used her baby's chakra instead. This caused a great many stillborn babies in the villages so the rule is now after the fourth month all mothers are away from combat and life threatening situations.” Turning to Hinata he said “considering your still here I take it Tsunade doesn't know about your pregnancy does she?” With Hinata shaking her head he continued “considering you think of her like a mother I figure you would tell her if you wanted her to know so for now I will respect your wishes and not inform her either. If I think this mission becomes too much I will tell her personally.” At Hinata's glad smile Itachi continued “I always considered you a little sister Hinata since our family was close, but once the murders happened I wasn't able to return. I had hoped to come and save you from you family but I was on this mission and I wasn't able to return, but I will not make this mistake again. I will protect you and your child with my life.”

 

Hinata with tears in her eyes hugged Itachi saying “I missed you Itachi my brother. You will make a wonderful uncle for my child. I am glad to have you back, but what really happened with the murders, I always knew you couldn't do it.”

 

Releasing Hinata from the hug Itachi told the story of how he was on an ANBU mission when Orochimaru used a hedge and killed all of the Uchiha clan and about how he was hoping to use Itachi as his new vessel, and with seeing Sasuke leaving him alive hoping to use him as a vessel later on. With everyone but the Hokage believing he had committed the murders Itachi joined the Akatsuki in hopes to spy on Orochimaru and to bring about his down fall, and to save bring his brother back.

 

“Hinata I also brought some scrolls I need you to work on. Tsunade said that you were the only one able to do it with because of you Byukken, so please can you learn I will need your help when I save Sasuke.”

 

“I will be happy to Itachi. Healing I can do for now but fighting I am afraid that I can't.” Hinata said with confidence. “By the time we go to save your brother I will be able to do it, but in the mean time can you do me a favor?”

 

“Gladly Hinata what do you need?” Itachi said with concern.

 

“Help me train Malina to fight. I know you won't be able to stay long but you are always welcome here, but if there is a fight while your gone I will need someone to help. So will you please as a favor for your little sister?” Hinata asked hopefully.

 

“I will do it as a favor to my little sister and for the safety of my future niece or nephew, but I will not go easy on you Malina. If there is a fight I need you to protect Hinata in my stead so we have much to teach you. Once you have my niece or nephew Hinata there is a few techniques I want to teach you as well, but until then you get to do medicine.”

 

“Thanks Itachi” Hinata said getting up from the table. We have to get to work your welcome to join us at the hospital or you're welcome to stay here if you like. There is a spare room upstairs.”

 

“Thanks for the offer Hinata” Itachi said “but I would rather go with you ladies to get a feel of the town. I want to make sure you will be safe here, now let's go before I change my mind and tell Tsunade about you being pregnant.”

 

Gathering their things the group headed for the hospital.

“Hey Temari” Naruto asked carefully coming up to the cranky girl. “Can I ask you something?”

 

Temari was ticked that Shikamaru was on a mission for a few months and wouldn't be able to see her for a while “sure Naruto what do you need?”

 

“Do you remember the party after the Chounin exams? What exactly happened I remember being drunk and Sakura-Chan telling me that she had a surprise for me, and to wait for someone in the room at the top of the stairs? I must have fallen asleep or something because I had a very vivid dream but woke up alone in bed and I don't remember what happened. So what happened? Kyuubi said I had made a choice that night but I don't remember.”

 

Temari upon hearing this was shocked; she didn't realize that Naruto had absolutely no idea who or what happened. That wasn't part of the plan. He was supposed to get drunk with the mixed sake that Sakura concocted and listened to Hinata's confession. He wasn't supposed to be all pissed drunk that he forgot what happened.

 

Looking at Temari's face paling upon this realization Naruto asked “you do know something what is it? And don't bother to lie to me I need to know or I will tell Gaara about that time you and Shikamaru almost broke his gourd.” Seeing Temari's face looking all scared she decided to answer.

 

“No need to Gaara anything I can answer your questions, at least what I know. What was the dream that you had first of all?” Temari said with color returning to her face.

 

Naruto informed her of the dream where he thought he had sex with Sakura, where she told him she loved him, and how he told her he loved her back and about how now he can't think of another woman in those thoughts even Sakura without Kyuubi attacking.

 

“Naruto this is important” Temari said seriously “what were your exact words to her when you told her you loved her?”

 

Naruto with an eyebrow raised said “I said I love you too, Sakura-Chan. Why do you need to know?” Before Naruto knew what was happening Temari punched him in the face as hard as she could sending him flying into the wall ten feet away leaving a huge creator.

 

“That explains why she left early before we were supposed to meet her for breakfast. Oh my God Naruto did you ever think of any EVER besides Sakura? I bet you hurt her beyond repair, but then you also took advantage of her. If you weren't my brother I would kill you but for now I need information.” Walking up to Naruto, Tamari grabbed him but the shirt and shoved him into the wall “now do you have any idea where Hinata is?”

 

“Hinata?” Naruto said confused “is on an S-class mission for the Hokage last I knew, she won't be back for a couple of years, and no way to contact her. No one even really knows where she is located or what she's doing. Why what's so important about Hinata?”

 

“How about you try this on for size Jackass, that girl in the room that you thought was there THAT was Hinata; that dream you had was no dream. That girl has loved you since you were both twelve and when she finally admitted it and showed you, you tell her `I love you too Sakura-Chan!!” Temari said screaming “I ought to beat you within every inch of your life, but I won't because Hinata would never forgive me. How could you be so stupid? How could you not even notice how she felt about you all those years huh? Why do you think she fainted and blushed around you all the time? She waited years for you and to get the confidence to tell you. She didn't even date any body even while you were gone for those years because she was waiting for you.” Temari said running out of anger, placing Naruto on the ground “I told her she could trust you with her feelings and this is what you do? After all she has done for Gaara and I, we told her she was like family. Hell we accepted her into our family, especially since her own never wanted her. Oh God Naruto I betrayed my sister.” Temari said crying grabbing Naruto crying into her shoulders. “I have to find her. I should get Gaara to ask Tsunade he has more power telling her we need her medical expertise or something. Naruto if I was you I would think long and hard about things. Gaara knows Hinata told you how she felt. He doesn't know you slept with her and for your sake I hope he doesn't find out because while you're his brother, Hinata is his younger sister that was taken advantage of. I won't tell him and it's your choice to. I hope to God you didn't hurt her to bad.” And with that Temari went to look for Gaara to find some information on Hinata.

 

`Kyuubi is what she saying true? Was it really Hinata? Was I really that dense not to know she loved me?”

 

`Yes Kit to all of it. I knew you were dense but not that dense. She is the one you had chosen for you mate, and I have to say I agree. I like her Kit and being a part of you I know you do to. Think about all the things about her and how she makes you feel, and for once really look at her and why she does that and see what answer you come up with. Now leave me alone Kit I need to conserve my energy.”

 

Naruto sitting against the wall started to think, and I mean really think about his life and experiences. He thought of his days as a child and at the academy. He thought of his friends and how they made him feel, and through them all he saw something consistent. Any time he was alone or sad there was Hinata with her quiet ways being there for him. There was Hinata cheering for him at his fights encouraging him. There was Hinata giving him medicine after fighting in the Chounin exams the first time. There was Hinata who had given him his first ever birthday gift and she wasn't even on his team, and there was Hinata who never laughed at his dream or ever called him names. No matter what he though about there was Hinata. Hinata with her always approving, smile just for him; Hinata who waited for him to come back and notice her, yet he never did instead chasing after someone who never thought of him that way. `oh God what have I done?' thought Naruto “that's it I'm going back to Konoha to ask baa-Chan about where Hinata is. I can't leave things like this between us. I have to find her.' And with that Naruto headed back to Konoha.
