To make this go way faster, b/c at this point in the story, i'm having a case of writers' block. It's the transition where i don't have a clue what i'm going to do. If you could possibly send e sone ideas via. notes I'd be grateful.

"No. You should be in the academy teaching your students."
"Yea, it's a wonder why she put me on Gate watch. I'd rather be at home sleeping with a large pizza."
"Hn." Genma tongued the senbon hanging out of his mouth. "She said we're supposed to be getting a very important visitor today."
"Is that right? Eh, it's probably just a local daimyo or something like that."
"She seems happier than normal the past few weeks. Maybe she's finally gotten over Naruto's disappearance."

Shadow Fox Ch. 10Naruto was at Ichirakus eating his 3rd bowl of ramen, thinking about how he had lost to Hinata, and what she was going to make him do. He was a man of his word so he would HAVE to do whatever she wanted. He sighed, I hope its not something dirty nah she doesnt have a dirty mind. Theres no way she would ask me to do something like that. She probably doesnt even like me like that. He frowned. He had a visitor.Shadow Fox Ch. 106 years ago in Fan Fiction More Like This
A man in his seventies came up and sat down a few stools away from him. Having girl troubles?
Naruto gave him a suspicious glance. No, I dont have a girl here.

"Shadow Fox!"
"What is it Kakashi?"
"This 'Shadow Fox' has popped up recently, but has proven to be a number one assassin. Only certain people know how to leave a calling card for him to know that a job is waiting."
"Do you know what this is?"
"No." sighed Kakashi. "But I'll go check some sources maybe I can find something out."
"You might want to start in the outpost town #3 where team 8 just left. Hinata said there was a man who seemed like a shinobi was leaving the Daimyo's office and that's when see saw a red tag with 'shadow fox' written upon it.

"It was three weeks since Jiraya and I had left the village. We had entered a town in Cloud country where Jiraya had a contact who knew of the Akatsuki movements. Apparently they're on the move; but I don't want to worry you anymore than need be. I was to stay there for nine weeks before we left again. During that time I trained with one of Jiraya's old friends."
"Not much happened during that time, other than the fact that I learned quite a few new Justus and got really strong." He smiled "Anyways, we spent the next few months heading around Cloud training and following

Are you sure you want to do this? Theres no coming back once you go through with it.
Yes. Everyone I get close to is doomed to a painful demise. I have no reason to live anymore. I only wait until my time comes, and try to make the most of it by caring for those I do cherish. For their sakes, I must protect them from a distance.
You still have a heart. But that will soon change. The figure said with a hidden smile.

A Surprise Entrance
The group of ninja were walking along the path, each lost in their own thoughts, save for Shikamaru and Kiba, who were talking back and forth about Kibas latest involvement with troublesome women. Shino walked along silently behind them. Every once in a while he would be greeted by one of his bugs, who were busily scouting the area ahead for any signs of the caravan, or enemies. Naruto plodded along, hands in his pockets, thinking about the past few days. He was tailed by a very irate-looking Akamaru, who, in order to vent his frustrations, began to trot around the group taking passing sna

A Friendly Battle
Naruto put his hand up to his cheek where Inos was a second before. The stinging sensation was still there. He just stood there looking at her, shocked. He still couldnt believe that she did that.
You make me sick. She said with a disgusted look. Grow up, and face your problems like a proper Shinobi. If you werent my friend I would rip that Hita Itai right off of your head. She left him alone to think about what she said.
Ino Narutos hand left his cheek, the red mark long since gone. His gaze suddenly turned dark, Youre right.

Shadow Fox Chapter 13Number Two was in Konoha, enjoying the blue skies. He preferred the salty air of his beach, when he used to live on the volcanic island, but the clear blue skies and the lush green forest suited him just fine as well. He was dressed in his green robe with the inch-thick black rope belt. Sitting on top of the Firsts head, he had a clear view of Konoha, and the surrounding forest. However, in his mind things were no as tranquil. He was having a meeting with his superior, Number One.Shadow Fox Chapter 136 years ago in Fan Fiction More Like This

Hinata? Naruto questioned, heading towards her.
He had almost reached her when the snow really started to move. The entire sheet of snow they were standing on started to slide off the face of the mountain. Naruto reached out and grabbed Hinatas hand as they began to fall. She screamed and pushed her way up against the snow.
Push out! Push out! Sora yelled, as she turned herself so that she was parallel to the cascading waterfall of snow. She bent her knees and pushed off, sending herself sailing off into the

Hinata stared hard at Shivani, trying hard to see if there was any sign of life coming from the girl. But she simply lay lifeless on the ground.
She collapsed back onto the ground, crying hard into her folded arms. She felt strong arms pick her up and pull her against him. She wrapped her arms around Naruto's neck and continued to sob into his chest.
"Hina-chan, sweetheart, you don't know if you killed her!" Naruto whispered in her ear.
"There's no way!" she sobbed. "With the genjutsu, I couldn't see anything! I missed and I killed her!" She was crying so hard that she had given herself the hic

"Hey, we didn't had to fight against all the warriors in the Kaze."
"That'd be better than rotting away here!" Naruto yelled. Hinata winced and shushed him, rubbing his arm to try and calm him down. He grumbled and held her tighter. "I don't get all this stuff about the 'purity' of the Kaze."
He felt, rather than heard, Hinata sigh, and pulled away enough to look at her face. "You understand?"
She sighed again. "

Hinata blushed and looked confused. They were standing in the forest a few miles away from the village where they had spent the night. At Naruto's insistence, they had woken up early and left to train. He was determined to get through this list as soon as possible. There were 100 things to learn and if they did one task per day it would take them 100 days or just a little over three months.

Tho Halves Chapter 19bHinatas mind was in something vaguely resembling an overload. For years she had been asked to do things that were impossible for her. Day after day, year after year, she had been asked to excel at techniques that she couldnt even complete. One of the things that leaving with Sora had meant to her was learning the difference between unreasonable demands and being pushed. Her father had always come to her holding up an ideal and asking her to become that. Sora held up her potential and asked her to live up to it.

Two Halves chapter 16The numbers of the Kaze may have been depleted in Sora's mind, but in Naruto and Hinata's there were still plenty of them. The members lined the wall around the courtyard, sat on the edges of balconies, and stood in groups on top of the wall. Everyone was wearing either black or white, even the women who had opted to wear a saree or lanagha instead of their Kaze uniforms. They looked strange and foreign, reminding the pair just how far away from home they were.

All Hinata could think about was that she wanted to get away. Away from him, away from Sora, away from being not enough. Her tears sparkled down her cheeks. She felt as stupid and useless as her days back in Leaf.
He didn't trust her. He didn't really think she was worthy of being his partner.
She had to get away, somewhere far away. Somewhere where she could sit down and cry until everything was washed out of her
