"Enslaved if I do; enslaved if I don't; how can you expect me to make that choice?" Naruto weakly asked.
"Get used to making these kinds of decisions, Master," Tsunade said, folding her arms under her breasts. "Not every decision is going to have the outcome you want."
Naruto stared at the floor for a while before turning to Hiruzen and said, "Fine, Gramps; what do I have to do?"
"You'll really have me as your slave, Naruto?" Hinata asked, a hopeful smile on her face.
"No; you won't be my slave," Naruto said. He then turned to Tsunade and Shizune and said, "Don't ever refer to yourselves as my slaves or my puppets or anything like that! As far as I'm concerned, we're all going to be a family. Let's try to get along."
Tsunade simply stared at Naruto for a while as Shizune said, "I think we'll get along just fine, Master."
"Can you stop calling me that, please?"
"We can't," Tsunade replied. "Ever since the seal was put on us, we can't call you anything except Master. Just another thing you have to get used to."
"In any case, let me show you how to properly apply the seal," Hiruzen said as he showed Naruto the seal pattern he needed to draw on Hinata. Naruto then cut his finger so some of his blood would be drawn and began the ritual. Hinata, for her part, stood still and kept thinking of her new life with Naruto.
After drawing the seal (purposely keeping out the part that sealed off her mind), Naruto turned to Hinata and asked, "Last chance. Are you sure this is what you want?"
Hinata took a deep breath and said, "I am; please let me be part of your family, Naruto."
Letting out a sigh, Naruto then performed the hand signs and watched as the seal on Hinata's body began glowing a piercing red light. After a while, the light faded and Hinata found herself weak at the knees. Naruto reached over to catch her before she fell to the ground and asked, "Hinata, are you okay?"
Hinata looked up at Naruto and, giving a weak smile, said, "Yes, I'm fine, Master. Thanks for caring about me."
Hiashi Hyuga turned to walk out of the room before hearing Naruto say, "Hey, Mr. Hyuga. I can't say I approve of the situation you forced us into, but I promise I'll take good care of your daughter."
Hiashi smirked as he said, "Be sure that you do." With that, he left the room, allowing Naruto time with Hinata, Shizune and Tsunade.
