"That was close." Naruto said to himself as he traveled through Konoha. "I really need to be more careful from now on..."
Naruto was having second thoughts about leaving the air tank there now, he had almost gotten caught within minutes of putting on the suit. This was getting a little dangerous. On top of it all, he still didn't know exactly where the Hyūga mansion was and Neji's directions were vague at best. Konoha was a big place after all.
He decided the best place to start looking would be the noble section of the city near the forest outer limits. Without wasting anymore time, he sent off before he got Hinata into any more trouble.

It didn't take that long to get to the noble section, and it took even less time to find the Hyūga mansion when he got there. Being the largest clan in Konoha, they would of course have the largest home which particularly dwarfed all the other mansions in the area.
"Whoa...This is where Hinata lives? She must have it made!"
Laughing stupidly, Naruto stepped up to the front door and slid it open. The main hall was well lit with bits of priceless art and polished floors. At the end of the long red carpet that ran through the middle of the hall was an older man who looked somewhat cross. Naruto correctly guessed that he was Hinata's father.
With arms crossed, Lord Hyūga spoke. "And just WHERE have you been, Hinata?"
"O-oh...Uh...J-Just returning from m-my mission father..."
"You know full well that you have training to be doing, young lady. You should have completed your mission hours ago. We may have to very well skip diner because of your dillydallying."
Naruto gulped slightly. He wasn't prepared to be assaulted with a full on training session after immediately returning home. But, clearly there was no arguing with the man.
Naruto bowed. "S-Sorry father...I'll b-begin training at once..."

Two hours later, Naruto was exhausted, sweaty, and bruised. He collapsed on the bed in Hinata's room. Already he was having second thoughts about this whole plan.
"Man...Hinata's got it roughed. I've never even worked myself that hard before."
He ran a hand through Hinata's short black hair. It was odd, but it felt like he had already adjusted to her body. Maybe it was the training or maybe there was a little bit of Hinata's conscious in him. But he shrugged it off.
"That's it...Tomorrow I'm getting the air tank back and setting things right. This isn't worth it."
