PREVIOUSLY ON NARUTO : THE SAGE GOD -

"Sigh.....alright, but do remember to come home before 7pm. Is that clear?" - Hisashi asked with his usual stern voice. Now this was a reaction thay both didn't expect from Hinata's father.

"R-really, t-thank you, father" - Hinata told as her and Naruto's face brightened.

"ALRIGHT, WE CAN TRAIN TOGETHER FROM NOW ON, anyways, bye Hinata, see you tomorrow" - Naruto waved her goodbye as he rushed towards Sasuke's house.

"B-bye N-Naruto......see you" - She bid him goodbye as Hiashi rose an eyebrow, noticing Hinata blushing. He got a slight image of what is going on, before smiling internally and thinking -

'Naruto......'

FLASHBACK: Before the arrival of Naruto and Hinata - 

HYUGA COMPOUND: HIASHI'S ROOM

Hiashi POV

Knock. Knock.

"Come in" - I muttered out. The door opened to reveal my daughter's private bodyguard.

"Sir" - He said.

"What do you want?" - I asked, kinda curious as he was supposed to be with Hinata.

"Sir, I have a report about Hinata. Today Hinata was bullied by a few seniors." - He spoke out.

'Sigh, weak as usual' - I thought. If Hinata was this weak all the time then how would she ever become the clan head, not to mention the bad example she would set in the future.

"And what were you doing, I thought you were supposed to be with her" - I asked him.

"I am really sorry sir, after school ended for the day, I couldn't be with her from the beginning. I got late and by the time I came, she was already getting bullied. I was about to drive off those bullies, but before I got the chance to....." - He told as curiosity got the best of me.

"What then, what happened." - I asked as he replied.

"Then......then that boy showed up......he, he is the demon kid......but I don't think he is bad enough to be called by that name" - I heard his speech and proceeded to dive deep in my thoughts -

'The demon child......Naruto Uzumaki was his name if I am correct, he has suffered a lot, but why was he there......helping the bullies?' - My mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts as I asked Hinata's bodyguard.

"And what do you mean by that?" - I have the feeling that I am in for a long conversation.

"Sir, what I mean is......" - He proceeded to tell me the entire story...... and to say that I was astonished would be an under statement. 

'So.....that's the reason Hinata was unable to defeat the branch members......and I couldn't even understand her problem, and I call myself her father.....sigh' -  I thought, I was so angry on myself for not being a father to Hinata. All I ever did was judge her. I never was a father to her.

"Sigh.....I understand.....you are dismissed" - I said as he bowed and left the room.

 PRESENT TIME - 

Hyuga Compound

3rd POV

'Naruto...... thank you for making me realize my duty......and for saving Hinata.' - Hiashi.....the once stern man thought with genuine care and happiness.
 

 And Naruto....well, he was  currently rushing towards his dear friend Sasuke's house.......and let's just say he is in for a treat.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

TIMESKIP: Sasuke's House

Sasuke POV

I was waiting for the blondie for what seemed like hours, could he, for at least today, be on time....... I mean how in the world could we train after he answers all my questions.....and I have like what......50 of them....at the very least. Wait, I am starting to sould like Naruto now, ain't I.......nope no whining. Well here comes the devil.

"Where the hell were you.....got lost?" - I asked and I was ready for him to say something idiotic......  but he actually said something which made sense.

"Uhhhh.....I am sorry? ...... I was about to come here, but I found Hinata on the way....." - He replied sheepishly.

"And? Don't tell me that meeting with the Hyuga Princess took 1 hour.......like seriously?" - I grumbled out loud.

"Uhh....no not that, actually Hinata was being.....bullied by a bunch of people, so I saved her and dropped her home." - Well that makes a lot of sense.

"Alright, sigh, I guess I will let it slide, for today." - I said.

"You know, you really sound like an old man right now" - I heard him speak as my eyes twitched.

"Oh shut up and answer all my questions already" - I replied.

"Umm.....about that, could we please do the question answer session tomorrow please" - He asked sheepishly, rubbing his hand behind his hand.

"And why so?" - I asked.

"Uhh.....because....." - He muttered.

"Because?" - I asked hastily, curious about the answer.

"Because......I asked Hinata to join our training.....so....." - He said out and I replied by saying -

"YOU DID WHAT?" - My eyes were now glowing red with anger as he was sweating bullets and in a moment, he started to run away.

"COME HERE YOU" - I yelled, he was already quite far from me.

"SORRY......I DON'T WANT TO DIE JUST YET." - He replied. It would be a long chase today but I will find him. I swear.
