Chapter-26 : Yamanaka Clan

Ino sat in her personal laboratory as she used different equipments all around to figure out the antidote for the poison Tsunade had given her a few hours back.

She had started her work as usual, and in just about 30 minutes of starting, she was able to derive a stable antidote to it.

As such, another one of her weekly tasks was done.

Unknown to her, this poison was a little special, this was one of the two vials Sakura had sent back from Sunagakure.

It was extracted from Kankuro's body and was sent to Tsunade in case Sakura failed to create an antidote to it.

It was also Sasori's strongest toxin, which slowly and painfully killed an enemy, even he hadn't developed an antidote to it yet.

If poison experts could see the speed at which Ino deciphered the poison, they would drink poison, vomit blood and die.

Well, all jokes apart, she was extremely skilled and extremely fast at doing what she just did, this alone would grant her the position of an expert poisoneer if she ever got into the profession.

As she moved out if the Lab, she washed herself thoroughly so as to not contaminate other things and accidentally poison somebody else from her family.

As she moved into the hallway, she could hear her father speaking with someone with a familiar voice.

'Hiro???' Her eyes widened and she sprinted back towards her room with extreme stealth, her blood flow increased remembering what she had done with Hiro on that night.

### Half an Hour ago ###

Hiro and Hinata arrived at the Yamanaka District as they went towards the main compound, Hiro carried a large cardboard box which was wrapped in gift wrapper.

Since they were already quite well known, nobody stopped them, especially since Hiro was personally walking in.

Hiro was surprised to see that the head Yamanaka was in house as he greeted him.

With a courteous bow, Hiro greeted the main with blonde hair, Tall Physique and altough it had wrinkles of age on his face, he still looked quite handsome.

The head Yamanaka invited him and Hinata in.

"So, how come you guys are here?" The man on the otherside if the table asked.

"Oh, it's nothing it's just that Ino hadn't visited in a few days, we were worried that something had happened, turns out that she was just more busy than usual and couldn't take out time" Hiro said answering the question effortlessly as he drank tea from the cup.

"I see, I see, now that you mention it, she does seem to be busy with something in the past few days, well, I guess she's finally taking care of her responsibilities now" Inoichi said as he too took a sip from his cup of tea.

"Well, she's working in her lab right now, how about I entertain you guys until she's done with her work?" Inoichi said with a smile on his face.

"It would be my pleasure" Hiro replied, he knew that the older Yamanaka wanted to test him.

Hinata just sat in the corner awkwardly as Hiro and Inoichi engaged in complex conversations about politics and business.

### Present ###

"Oh, so that's why you hire those managers, no wonder your business is growing so rapidly" Inoichi said with a genuinely surprised expression.

In his eyes, Hiro had been a rich stuck up guy who wanted to solve every problem with money.

But after having an intellectual conversation with him in the last half hour, he came to realise that all those rumors were obviously false.

Not only Hiro possessed a charismatic personality, his style of speaking, his expressions, his use of words, his intellect and his respectful attitude created this aura of likliness around him.

Hiro on the other hand was quite enjoying the situation, engaging in long conversations while still being relevant and seeming intelligent was his speciality, a Trait that he had developed from his years of politics.

He revealed couple of his management techniques to the Yamanaka head, and as he had expected, he had won this bout of conversation, establishing a good image in mind of the older Yamanaka.

"Well, it's time already, looks like I'll need to go, I'll leave you younger folks alone, Ino should be out any minute now, you can wait in her room, its that way, to the right" He said pointing in a direction as he stood from his place and vanished in a flicker.

Unknown to him, she was already out and had opted to hide in her room to avoid embarrassing herself.

Hiro knew that Inoichi's schedule as a high level ninja of the village was incredibly packed, Ino had complained many times that he was rarely able to come home, and even after that,it was only for a few hours at max.

Hiro and Hinata got up from the couch in the drawing room as they moved towards the room shown to them.

Hiro carried the gift box into the room as both him and Hinata looked at each other's face simultaneously.

Ino was 'sleeping' on her bed, a blanket covering her body.

Both of them immediately got the idea of what was up as they continued.

Hiro kept the box aside as he closed in on Ino from the side of the bed as he light his face close to her, too close in fact as he said with a smile "She seems to be sleeping deeply"

Hiro could see the red claiming up her face.

Hinata too joined in on the act as she also acted oblivious.

"Yeah, looks like she won't be waking up soon..." Hinata said as she continued lightly "So.....should we continue *that* "

Seeing that hinata joined in the act too, Hiro said "What if she wakes up while in the middle of it? It would be the second time catches us doing something inappropriate"

As soon as Hiro completed his sentence, a full on blush was on Ino's face.

"Don't worry Hiro-kun, I remember Ino telling me that she's a dead sleeper, she won't wake up any time soon" as soon as she said that, Hinata moved towards Hiro, Kissing on the cheeks as she let out a few lewd sounds.

Hiro knew what was up as he too made a few grunts.

Suddenly, as if undertaker arising, Ino rose on her bed, her eyes still closed as she said with an annoyed expression "You guys are the worst!!!!"

She finally opened her eyes to see that both Hiro and Hinata were standing separately, teasing her, just as she imagined.

"Well, that's what we are for" Both of them said at the same time as they extended their arms to help Ino get up from her bed.
