Naruto - Exchanging Vows (Patreon)

Within the cloak of night, the two Ninja Naruto and Hinata retrieve the secret scroll from the abandoned shrine. Apparently, the shrine had been from the Sage of Six Path days. People were unsure if it was made for him, one of his followers or if he made it himself. Regardless with the Fourth Great Ninja War now closed the missions Ninja were getting were either clean-up duties or missions like this one now. Trying to find old relics of the past to understand what new enemies could come and if the old relics may have other ways to combat them. The most anyone knew was, with the war ended great change was coming to a new era.

“I gotta know…” The spiky blond-headed knucklehead gingerly tugs at the side of the secret scroll his eyes gleaming with curiosity. Naruto had been through similar situations in the past. Being told to not open a scroll, just made him want to open it more. Squeezing back his prosthetic arm though he manages to yet again hold himself back. After all, he was a great hero to the world. “Just a bit longer… just a bit longer. Hinata what do you think would be in a thing this old?!”

From being addressed to having such an enthusiastic response in her direction, the usual shy Hinata already was stuttering her words. “N-N-Naruto… w-we were told to not open it. I-I’m glad you’re enjoying yourself but… k-keep it to thoughts alright? I can hold the scroll, i-if you think you can’t help yourself.”

Naruto was already rolling his eyes. Him, lack self-control? “Hah.” He laughs gripping the scroll closely to his side. He wanted to be the Hokage, and now he was more or less being groomed for the position while Kakashi kept his seat warm. Things like restraint were easy for someone as great as him. “You worry way too much, I swear. Either way, we’re already back in the leaf village anyway. Kurama said the scroll wasn’t dangerous just weird. It should be fine.”

The shy Hinata nervously taps her fingers together. She could not understand everything that was just said. Naruto had restraint but it sounded like he was implying he still wanted to open the thing anyway. “U-um, really N-Naruto, we should be careful with scrolls like this. Even if it isn’t dangerous on a large scale, it could still do something unexpected. J-Just be careful alright?”

Hinata had seemed more willing to speak up lately, Naruto was happy with that. Though she was far too much of a worry wort for her own good. “Look Hinata, nothing bad’s going to happen when I open it. It was just me being curious is all, so stop worrying ya know?”

Hand at her chest Hinata blinks a few times softly mumbling now. “D-Did you just say when you open it? N-Naruto…” Hinata sheepishly pokes her fingers together again trying to keep following Naruto as he turns a corner in the road to lean against some wooden fencing. “You… you’re not really going to, right?”

Leaned up against the fencing Naruto rolls his eyes again his finger this time unfurling the scroll just a little. “I mean I just wanna make sure it isn’t damaged before we hand it in ya know?!” Unfurling the scroll all way Naruto gives a mischievous grin. The lines in the scroll were like nothing he had ever seen before. The lettering as well looked to be a language that had been long forgotten he had no clue how he would even pronounce the words he could see. Hinata was of course standing there all worried still, so Naruto lifts the scroll and turns it right around to show Hinata. “See, look, the scroll didn’t even do anything to us, it’s just some old scribbles… probably was something weird, but not like we can read it ya know?”

Tap

Naruto’s heart beats a little faster. The scroll was no longer in his hands. “Wh-what the—” Hearing Hinata’s voice comes from his own lips Naruto quickly covers his mouth with a pale-skinned hand. “W-wait h-huh?” Stuttering out words again and again Naruto was feeling overwhelmed far too quickly. Looking down, he was not a he. “My body…” Hand touching softly against her breasts, Naruto was standing there in Hinata’s body. It felt real too, just trying to release a transformation Jutsu made nothing happen. “I-I don’t understand, what just happened.”

“What’re you doing? We need to keep moving ya know?” Naruto could hear his own voice. Sometimes he would with his shadow clones, but staring at the person in front of him; it wasn’t a clone. “What’s wrong Hinata?”

Naruto had no idea what to do he was a girl, Hinata, and this Naruto? Was she speaking to himself? Looking back and forth, quickly down the street and up it. No one else was walking by or in range. “W-wait aren’t you Hinata though?” Reaching her hand out to the blond hair boy he cocks his head looking confused. Though no one else was around, it had to be Hinata right? “The scroll… it seems, it seems like it switched our bodies. It’s not even a Jutsu, I’m just really you, and you’re me.”

The New Naruto rubs at his cheek, the normal skin now red in a blush. “G-geez Hinata I didn’t expect you to get so close. You even said a full sentence without stuttering.” Shaking his head, the young man maintains his focus. “But ah, what the heck are you talking about Hinata? What scroll? We just came back from a mission; we weren’t carrying any scroll though. Are you feeling alright?”

Naruto’s original hand placed itself on her forehead. It was confusing to think about it like that. Hinata had swapped into Naruto’s body, but she seemed to not remember anything unlike him. Still feeling the rougher hand against her forehead did make her blush a little. Maybe it was because Hinata usually got like that. Still, Naruto needed to figure out what was going on. “The scroll couldn’t have just disappeared. Hinata, I’m serious. I am, Naruto. I know it sounds crazy but we somehow switched bodies… the scroll must vanish or alter memories too. Maybe it just doesn’t to whoever uses it ya know?”

Narrowing his blue eyes at the usually shy girl. It was clear this New Naruto found the whole story hard to believe. “Well… somethings clearly strange.” Naruto was not sure to feel happy or not but it was a start. “You’re talking a lot more than normal, and we’re even close to each other. It’s pretty strange. You didn’t hit your head though, right?” The once girl waves her arms around the air, expressing how nothing was nearby. “No scrolls around here though. I’m not saying you’re crazy or anything… but maybe you should ask Sakura to take a look at you. You seem serious, but… without any evidence of this scroll thing, it sounds a little ridiculous. I’m Naruto, ya know?” Patting at his chest the young man pulls up his shirt a little to show the seal on his stomach. “I even have Kurama here and everything. And you want me to believe I’m the real Hinata?”

It was hard to know what to say to convince himself. Hinata was sort of like a stalker in a lot of ways after all. So saying things only the real Naruto would know was not exactly in the cards. “I probably couldn’t say a lot to make you believe me…” The New Hinata twiddles her thumbs around each other, the body seemed to have certain mannerisms that were hard to avoid. “I-I’ll just have to figure out some way to prove it to you. We need to turn back.”

A heavy sigh falls from the New Naruto’s mouth and he waves his hand starting to walk away. “Alright, Hinata. Do what you need to, I’ll hand in the mission. Make sure to get checked at the hospital if you need it though. I’ll try and check in when I can.”

With just a few words Naruto was by herself standing there against a wooden fence. “What the heck…” Dragging her hand against her face she was at a loss. How would she even begin to fix the situation? “I’m so stupid… I never should have opened that. I-I gotta figure out how to undo all this!”

Several months later

Time had past and Naruto found nothing. Trying to get Hinata to remember who she was did not work Trying to leave the village to learn more of what happened proved difficult as well. Hinata’s body was not in amazing fighting shape so Naruto was somewhat stuck with reading in the village. That being said, Naruto had much more to adjust to. Suddenly she was living in Hinata’s home, sleeping in Hinata’s bed, being around Hinata’s sister Hanabi. One would think getting used to having to dress and bathe as a girl would be the true challenge. Dealing with an actual sibling though was something else. Hinata was not the next in line to take over the Hyuga clan, it was Hanabi. Hanabi was stronger than Hinata in several ways. Though Hinata found her own strengths Naruto had noticed after the war she stepped away from training and seemed to start doing things like cooking more. Such a thing may seem insignificant but because of Hinata’s lack of training, Hanabi was strong-arming Naruto into a variety of situations.

SLAM

“Sis! Come on he likes you!” Hanabi was at it again. For some reason the last several months Naruto had to deal with the girl trying to thrust her into situations with the New Naruto. All Naruto had said was he needed to figure out how to make things better between her and him. Though Naruto meant it about their body change. Hanabi clearly took it the wrong way. “If you really want him to notice you, I think I have something perfect… hehe, a few of my friends got me something a while back. It may not fit you as well as you’d like. But I think that works even better in your favor.”

Lifting her head from the bed Naruto groans softly at the energetic girl. “Hanabi… please. I don’t need that sort of help, really.” For better or worse Naruto was pretty used to a girl's body having probably messed around far too much as a kid. Sitting up casually in just underwear was embarrassing at first because the body was Hinata’s. Though after the first month Naruto got over that. “Look… I just, I’m gonna get dressed and head to the library again alright?”

Rolling her eyes Hanabi crosses her arms under her chest. “Sis, you can’t go hiding away to the library reading how to be a good housewife if you don’t go get your man first.”

Naruto’s face starts to blush. He really did not understand the things they were teaching Hinata’s sister. “L-look I don’t need a man. And I’m not studying to be a housewife. I’m just trying to figure some things out is all!”

Slowly Hanabi shakes her head and walks out of the room muttering. “Oh don’t you worry.” Naruto already worrying gets off her bed and starts to walk over to her closet. “Sneak attack!” Hanabi would have none of it though. Jumping on top of Naruto she holds up a lovely red qipao with a flowery design at the shoulder and skirt of the dress. “You’re going to go out there and make that blond idiot yours!” Naruto is pressed against the floor and groped at. Her voice mutters out some soft moans but Hanabi did not blink. She rips Naruto’s bra away and grins. Naruto felt the treatment a bit much but struggling against Hanabi was a losing effort, she just did what she wanted. Ripping off Naruto’s panties Hanabi then grabs both of Naruto’s arms and pulls her back up. Both standing now Hanabi pulls the red dress over Naruto’s head and tugs the slit sides down. “Hehe, this looks pretty good on you. Naruto will probably take you home if you look like this.”

Ironically Naruto really did want to go home at this point. Though she did not want to be swept off her feet by herself. “H-Hanabi.” More Hinata mannerism spew from Naruto’s pretty lips. She just could not help but stutter and blush at moments like this. The qipao felt so form-fitted, and for Hinata’s large chest it felt like her breasts may rip through it. “Th-this is a bit excessive… I-I wouldn’t be able to walk around like this.”

Snapping her finger Hanabi nods eagerly. “That’s right! Of course, you couldn’t.” Hanabi swings her arm around and pulls out a pair of red high heels. “You need the proper shoes first.” Before Naruto could even get out another word Hanabi grabs at her feet and forces the heels on in place. “And don’t worry. I’m not letting you be all shy about this. Just like you asked I’m gonna help you push past your fears!” Far too excited Hanabi hoists Naruto into her arms and jumps right out Hinata’s window. Hanabi leaps from building to building getting out of the Hyuga territory right away and into the main part of the village. The girl was rushing too much, Naruto was not even sure how to use Hinata’s chakra properly so it was hard for her to even jump around. It was forcing Naruto to hold onto her would-be sister for dear life. “Here you are, the Hanabi express is done. Go get me some nieces and nephews, okay?” Hanabi sets Naruto down in the middle of a park and leaps away, leaving Naruto there alone in some sultry outfit.

“Wh-what am I suppose to do dressed up like this?” Naruto sighs to herself trying to hide away from any villagers walking by. She was forced to get used to life as a girl for the past few months, but that did not mean wearing outfits like this. “Does she really think I wanna be some kind of housewife? I want my old body back…”

“Hey, Hinata!” The body Naruto desired to be back in speaks cheerfully behind her. Turning her head back Naruto’s original body was right there smiling that wide smile. Though getting a closer look now, his cheeks do start to turn a bit red. “O-Oh, um, that’s a nice dress on you. I don’t usually see you wear outfits like that Hinata.”

It was like her original body was trying to drive home that Naruto was Hinata now. She still had no way to convince the old Hinata that they had actually swapped though. “Y-yes.” Naruto stutters out her words, face blushing a deep red. She felt silly blushing at her original self. From everything Naruto had seen of Hinata room though it seemed she really liked him. The body then still had some sort of attraction. “N-Naruto, what are you doing here anyway? I-I just was heading back home.” The last thing Naruto wanted to do now was going to the library to research more. She needed to get out of the too tight-fitted clothing, or at least get some underwear back on.

“Oh?” The real Hinata speaks calmly, though his cheeks were still blushing a little looking Hinata’s original body up and down. “I mean, you’re all dressed up nice and everything Hinata.” Shaking his head the New Naruto did not want to get horribly off-track. Naruto could tell Hinata being in the new body was changing things. “I was just studying some more Hokage material… It won’t be too long now till I’m placed as the next Hokage. There is a lot to learn. So not to long is probably another five years still. But, I’m almost there. Kakashi’s keeping the seat warm for me.” Naruto expected to feel envy, Hinata was accomplishing his dream and he was trapped. Though somehow Naruto could only blush a little hearing Hinata speak so passionately. The two may have changed bodies, but it seemed like Hinata in Naruto’s body was working even harder than he had. “Anyway Hinata.” Thinking of the names Naruto was starting to make herself confused. Always being referred to as Hinata lately it was hard to not think her real name was Hinata sometimes. “I was wondering…” The New Naruto rubs that back of his head blushing even more embarrassed. It was making Naruto’s heart start to beat though for some reason, she could not have feelings for her original body, right? “You’re… all dressed up and stuff. So, you know, how about I treat you to something? I got some money on me, been saving up more lately… I just figured, if you wanted, we could go out to eat ramen, or maybe even go somewhere else.”

Was Naruto really being asked out on a date, by her original self? It was so hard to wrap her head around things. It was Hinata, but Hinata did not remember being the original Hinata, it would just be dating herself then right? “U-um I-I…” Still, something was pulling at Naruto inside. It was like she really wanted this. Holding out her hand to the young man, he takes it in his smiling softly. “O-Of course, I’d be happy to go with you.”

Several Years Later

The wedding Kimono was quite beautiful. A nice silky fabric, the white to show purity, the flower placed neatly in Naruto’s hair. Naruto had been living as Hinata for years now. It was hard in some ways. Dating her original body, knowing it was once Hinata. The conflicted thoughts were all there, but Naruto was happy. Going on dates, holding hands now and again. The workup to things was slow at times, but Naruto had almost forgotten about studying to try and change back. “How many more years will it be? Is there a reason to study more now?”

The thought at first was Hinata had just assumed Naruto’s personality and memories as well as body. This would have meant she was just a clone in a way. Though Naruto watched this New Naruto conquer things in a way he thought impossible. Stopping a threat from the moon, visiting other nations to talk about new policies. Making sure no remains of White Zetsu’s were left behind. Even making sure the remains of the divine tree were sealed away so it could not be misused. The new Naruto could be a dork at times still and knucklehead, but something about him was different from the original. “And now here I am… getting married to this man.” Naruto turns carefully walking with small steps, her hands against her lap. She was surrounded by friends and family in a matter of speaking. Walking along the path, New Naruto was standing there as well. Dressed in his own formal wear, he was dashing and cleaned up well, his eyes staring nervously but as well in awe. Naruto could only think if she would think the same if she were in her original body. The ceremony was nice, though Naruto did not hear all the words, she was too focused on her soon-to-be husband. The words of a kiss finally striking her ears though, she leans forward. “I love you.”  Maybe the kiss was what caused Naruto to finally accept it all, a kiss that could be seen before friends and family. A ceremony to tell those you care for that this person before you is the one you desire to be with for life. Their lips connect soft and subtle, but Naruto did not want it to end. She, she was the New Hinata now. There seemed no way to turn back so why put effort where it is not needed? From now on, she would accept herself as Hinata. Just having the thought seemed to be enough for whatever force did this. Naruto could suddenly no longer remember some old memories of her past. Memories of Hinata’s past were starting to fill the gaps now. It felt almost like she had always been in Hinata’s body, so maybe she just had to accept that for what it was. Closing her eyes, she grasps at the new life in front of her.

Several more years later

The first time she was impregnated more of her old self was lost. Maybe it was from becoming a true woman in body and mind. Doing something only a woman could do. Slowly the New Hinata was adjusting to her life, having a home, watching the New Naruto become Hokage, watching her first child slowly grow. She had not expected to have a second child as well though. Though a night of love can go a bit of way, watching Boruto grow just filled the New Hinata with more desire to keep being a mother. The second pregnancy was much like the first though. The most she could even remember now is people use to call her Naruto at some point. It was becoming hard to remember why. She had given birth to two children, found a husband, and was living a peaceful life. Did she ever need to be called her husband’s name?

Shake, shake

“Just a little more salt.” The New Hinata sprinkles some salt into her pot. After so much time had passed, she had become a regular housewife. Usually, at home, she takes care of her four-year-old daughter while New Naruto works away as Hokage and Boruto attends school. “I think supper is all prepared now. Himawari care to help me set the table?” The small short black-haired girl hops up in place and runs to her mother gingerly taking the plates as they are stacked into her hands. “Good girl. I’ll make sure to make you something sweet tomorrow for helping me out so much.” The little girl giggles and starts setting the table for the family. Meanwhile, Mother Hinata begins to get the food set into severing bowls and plates to prepare for a new meal with the family. “Naruto was a little overworked at first… I’m glad he figured out a good system of managing his work. Using his clones lets him complete things days in advance… being able to see the real him more has been nice. It’s been helping Boruto too I think."

The small girl giggles again, but this time she holds up a paper in her hand. “Actually mama.” Himarwari waves the paper in front of Hinata. “Boruto was hiding this in his room. But, but I saw him stuff it away, so I thought you should see it.”

Taking the paper into her hands New Hinata begins to read over the paper. “Boruto has been skipping classes almost daily… if he continues to not show up, he will be dropped out of the academy. Would the parent please sign this document to confirm you understand the situation—” New Hinata’s eyes twitch her byakugan activating from the stress. “That little brat, what does he think he’s doing?” Gripping the paper tightly Hiwmarwari slowly lowers her head trying to not chuckle more. “There!” New Hinata’s neck snaps to the left glaring through the wall. She could tell her sons Chakra from a mile away. “He’s coming home now? Of course, he is…” Stomping her feet over to the front door New Hinata crosses her arms under her chest paper still in hand, and then Boruto opens the door.

“Now listen to me mister, would you care to explain why the academy is threatening to throw you out and you didn’t even talk to me about it?” New Hinata’s voice is strict and stern, her eyes glaring down at her now sulking sweating blond-haired son. “Look at me when I’m talking to you!” The boy quickly stands straight and looks his mother in the eye. Children were pretty easy to conquer if they realize they won’t be able to eat good food if they make their mother mad. “Boruto, I told you to tell me if you were struggling with anything. I know you and your father don’t always see eye to eye, but why are you acting like this? Just because you feel you’re better than the other students?”

Rubbing at the back of his neck Boruto slowly averts his eyes from his mother’s gaze trying to speak casually. “W-well… ya know, video games and stuff are way more fun. The academy doesn’t have anything else to teach me. Whenever I ask Dad to train, he always ends up being busy too.”

Sighing disappointed New Hinata shakes her head and turns away from her son. “Wash up, get to the table, and have your dinner. We will talk about this more tomorrow though.” About to raise a hand New Hinata quickly glares back silencing the boy. “We will talk about it at the academy when you get done apologizing to your teacher and classmates.” Boruto shivers in place and Hinata walks back down the hall just as the door opens again, New Naruto showing up this time.

“Oh well hey Boruto. Did school go well today?” Naruto smiles excitedly, but his son stares down lost in thought. “U-um, Boruto? Why are you shivering? Did something happen?”

The parent and child look at each other but Boruto just sighs at his father and starts walking away muttering under his breath. “Some weird power or not Mom’s way scarier…”

The night goes with some silence through dinner but finally, the night was free, the children in their rooms and the parents left to their own. Layed down on his bed New Naruto sighs slowly against the mattress, his hand gently rubbing his prosthetic arm. “Being a Hokage is never easy Hinata… every day I work I understand more why Granny would dodge work a lot. Shikamaru helps, and my clones do a lot for me too. But heh, when my clones desummon for the day the exhaustion sets in getting all the memories.” With that said Naruto releases his Jutsu and sulks further into his mattress. His eyes were tired but he was doing his best. “Trying to be a father that’s around and protecting the village is hard… Since I never had parents, I don’t really know how to be a good dad. Or hah… sometimes I wanna try things and they don’t work out very well. Little people with minds of their own. Tough stuff.”

Walking out from their bathroom New Hinata was now wearing little clothing, just a black bra, and black panties, her now shoulder-length hair gently sways as she brushes it out. “I told you honey; you should try and propose different sections to help manage your work more. The leaf village has a lot to handle simply because you’re famous. Our tourists here have made our need for a police force bigger, and well you handling paperwork for people buying new land or making new buildings and businesses… It’s a lot of work, and one person shouldn’t do it all.” Hair brushed New Hinata sits down beside her husband leaning her head against his shoulder. “I know you’re worried about the children too. Boruto doesn’t hate you though. He just wants to be around you and isn’t sure how to express it. You’re busy and he doesn’t wanna bother you. At the very least you never tried something silly like making Shadow Clones spend time with your children.” New Hinata and New Naruto both laugh at even the thought of the idea. Even with tough moments they both did love their family, for worries or not. Rubbing her cheek against New Naruto’s shoulder New Hinata sighs softly against her husband's neck. “I’m always here to help you destress a bit, but remember me keeping our home, readying the food, and taking care of you a bit can only go so far. I can’t give you those special office visits anymore with Hiwmarwari around.”

New Naruto sighs deeply and gives his wife a quick kiss to the lips, his fingers unclasping her black bra. “Yeah… I do sorta miss that. We could always ask Sakura to watch her for a little… Hanabi enjoys watching the kids too.” New Hinata softly giggles kissing back, her fingers unbuttoning her husband’s shirt. The two even if older were still youthful in a lot of ways. Even if their lives had changed, they kept making the most of things. “I love you Hinata.”

New Hinata laces her fingers between her husband’s. Lips kissing his more passionately now her free hand tugs down her husband’s pants. “M-mm… I love you too honey.”

SLAM

“I can’t believe this!” Boruto sighs deeply falling against his bed. “Mom didn’t even say anything to dad… b-but she was still glaring at me most of dinner. I just cut class a few times.” Sighing again Boruto stares down at his handheld game system and switches it off. “They’re probably laying down together talking about how to punish me I bet…” Twirling his thumbs around each other Boruto looks slowly toward his window. “I should apologize… doing even more now will just make mom even madder at me. I can’t ask her to make my favorites… she’d probably make me eat something I don’t like.” Groaning Boruto gets up from his bed and swings open the door. “Well now or never.” Walking down the hall carefully he hears some thudding, like a squeaking of a bed. “Huh… wonder what’s happening.”

THUD

Before he could get closer to his parent's door some sort of item falls, New Naruto’s office door opened up from it. Peeking his head inside Boruto notices some odd scroll laying there on the ground of the office. “What the heck?” Walking into the office Boruto carefully picks the scroll up into his hands and reads the label along the side of it. “Do not open, ever…” Looking up slowly he sees a cupboard higher on the wall that was swung open. The lock on the cupboard for some reason was undone. “Weird… I always wonder what Dad kept in there, why does he have the scroll if you can’t open it though?” Smiling to himself Boruto tucks the scroll under his arm and opens the office window. “Hehe… I should show this off to Sarada. She’d probably freak at the chance to open up a secret thing like this. No, no, maybe it’d be better to just open it and shove it in her face… then I could get Dad to yell at her.” Snickering away Boruto leaps out the window, unaware of just what sort of scroll he holds in his hands.
