4:30 AM

Naruto woke in a cold sweat to notice three things that made him sure that the most awful, evil person on planet earth lived in kohona.

1. Sakura was in his kitchen cooking breakfast

2 he was striped down to his underwear

3 he had the worst headache imaginable

His only sad thoughts were how his relationship with Hinata were over.

Two minutes later

a fully clothed Naruto walked sadly into his kitchen, his head bowed in shame.

"Sakura-chan"

said kunoichi turned around about to wish the blond a good morning but stopped, shocked to see naruto prostrating on the floor before her, begging forgiveness.

Sakura looked at Naruto questioningly

"Sorry for what? Its not your fault that Hiashi punched you out and ran away with Hinata" Sakura said. Naruto looked up quizzically, the previous statement not fully registering

"You mean I didn't knock you up?"

Sakura's eyes grew wide, and Naruto was out (along with a large chunk of his wall) before he knew what hit him.

"BAKA!!!!"

When sakura was done kicking the living crap out of Naruto for jumping to the conclusion that they had sexual relations with each other the previous night, she told him about what had really happened.

"...its not surprising that you can't remember, or that you have that headache, taking a Jyuken hit to the head isn't something you can just get up and walk away from, you had a fever all night, thats why I hung around" sakura said

"But why didn't you go after hiashi? Hinata is gonna be all bruises when I see her next!" Naruto yelled angrily "he could be beating her right now!"

As that thought sunk in Naruto ran to the door, determined to save Hinata from Hiashi's wrath. Before he could take more than two steps, Sakura grabbed him by his collar before he could leave.

"Don't you know anything about the Hyuga clan? Their clan law states that no member of he clan, not even the head, can physically harm a member of the main branch, unless they are training or participating in a contest like the chunnin exam!" Sakura snapped "besides, do you really think you stand a chance against Hiashi?!?" Sakura's words hit hard and Naruto sank to the floor under their weight.

"Thank you for taking care of me" Naruto said after a long pause. "Why were you near my house anyway?"

As Sakura fumbled for a feasible reason, she was saved by the bell, literally, more specifically, Naruto's door bell.

Unfortunately, in Sakura's opinion the news that Kakashi (the one who rang the doorbell) brought was far worse than explaining to a guy that you were spying on him and his girlfriend.

"Hinata has been kidnapped"

12:45 AM

three cloaked Nin surrounded Hiashi,

"Hand over the child" one of them said, her voice was comparable the moonlight shining on her black hood Hiashi stared incredulously at the three nin, identified as residents of the cloud by the silver insignia embroidered into their sleeves.

"Tonight is the wrong night to do this, im not in the best of moods" hiashi spat out

"On the contrairy" they replied "this is the most opportune time in the world to fullfill our mission"

"your mind is clouded with hate" intoned the one on the left

"your rage clouds your judgement" whispered the one on the right

"and on the night of the full moon, our power is at its greatest!"

"your blood will splatter the streets of Kahona, you are mad if you think I will merely give you my daughter!" Hiashi raged

"you are weak!!!" the three screamed in unison "the girl is ours, hand her to us!!!"

A cloud descended over Hiashi's mind, and without another word he handed over his eldest daughter, heir to the mightiest clan in kohona. They took her and jumped away leaving hiashi, quivering , to collapse in the street.
