Perhaps in the story, there is a competition for a rare ninja item or a special mission opportunity. Kiba, being very competitive, sees Hinata as a threat. He tries to intimidate her by making fun of her skills in a very mean way. Hinata, who is already a bit shy and self - conscious, is deeply hurt by Kiba's actions. Naruto, on the other hand, witnesses this and stands up for Hinata, which then starts a whole new plot development in the fanfiction.
It can create a lot of discussion among fans. Some fans might be really into these darker, more complex storylines and it gives them a different perspective on the Naruto - Hinata relationship. Others might not like it as they prefer the more positive, canon - friendly portrayals of the couple.
One common plotline could be Hinata choosing someone else over Naruto, which deeply wounds him. Another might be Hinata lying to Naruto about something important, causing him emotional distress. There could also be a plot where Hinata physically harms Naruto in a moment of being controlled or influenced by some external force.
Communication is key. Naruto needs to sit down with Hinata and have an honest conversation about what's going on. He should explain his actions and feelings clearly.
In some Naruto fanfictions where Naruto hurts Hinata, it could be due to a misunderstanding. Maybe he's under some sort of mind - control or false information has been fed to him. This often leads to a lot of angst in the story.
One common theme could be misunderstandings between Naruto and Hinata. Maybe Naruto accidentally says something hurtful without realizing Hinata's true feelings. Another theme might be Naruto being influenced by some external factor, like a powerful enemy's mind - control, which makes him act in a way that harms Hinata.
In such fanfiction, Hinata's actions could potentially stunt Naruto's growth. If she hurts him, Naruto, who is often portrayed as sensitive beneath his bravado, might become more guarded. It could lead to him doubting his own self - worth, especially if the hurt comes from someone he cares about or trusts.
One common theme could be betrayal. Since Hinata is hurting Naruto, it gives a sense of betrayal as they are usually seen as having a positive relationship. Another theme might be redemption. Maybe after Hinata hurts Naruto, she realizes her mistake and tries to make it up to him. It could also explore the theme of sacrifice. As I mentioned before, if Hinata is hurting Naruto to save someone else, it's a form of sacrifice.
In some Naruto fanfictions, Hinata could potentially be portrayed as a 'weapon' in a very metaphorical sense. For example, her Byakugan abilities might be exploited in unique ways that make her seem like a strategic weapon for a side or a cause. But in the canon Naruto story, she is a character with her own agency and not really a weapon.
