Chapter 23: The Leader has arrived
Darkness sounded him as he found himself in a vague yet familiar location. That single spotlight glared down on him as he surveyed the dimly light area. As the light expanded it took on a low tone as multiple figures came into view. On all three sides of him there were three horse sized mutated looking violet chess pieces each one having various levels of cracking. On top of each one there sat the figure of a young male.
On one there sat a shadow figure with glowing white eyes and canine like ears and a matching tail with a generally lazy disposition. On the opposite chess piece there sat another even darker figure who had violet eyes with a swirl pattern in them and 2 horns protruding out of the front of his head. The figure gave off a monstrous grin as both figures lounged about. Both figures were somewhat identical and both were looking down at the familiar figure in front of them who they shared so much in common.
Naruto looked around at the mental realm of his in interest. "It looks a lot more ordered in her than it used too."
"Yeah can't have that can we?" The demon side of Naruto spoke as he rested his head on his fist while sitting up on his chest piece looking down at Naruto with a smirk. He was the physical manifestation of Naruto's demon blood and devil influence. They heard a yawn and looked over to see the more canine like figure looking at them uninterestedly.
"I don't really care as long as we aren't inconvenience. But we do seem to thrive on chaos don't we?" The wolf Naruto, he occupied their youkai, warbeast, and traces of demon blood. He was known as Tail in the physical world and without this side of Naruto Wolf, Ran and his animalistic blood wouldn't exist.
Naruto just smirked at his alter egos as he put his hands in his pockets. "Well we all know it won't be as calm here very soon."
The all looked at the vacant third chess piece noticing it was a lot lighter than the other 2 and covered in small cracks where faint traces of light shown through before looking down and saw they were all one a gigantic orb like object. It was black and white with with a faint violet hue and gave off the vague feel of an egg. Both objects were covered in chains.
"Any day now we should be getting a new brought but which one will be first is the question."
Naruto rubbed his head at this knowing the implications. "More personas in my head, that can not be good for my health but who the hell cares."
His wolfish persona gave a fanged smirk as they all locked eyes. "Because we will take it all in stride and keep going forward at our own pace."
His demon persona held up a monster hand as he smirked darkly. "To go by our own rules and fuck the world over. We will break through all obstacles and thrive in the chaos we bring about!"
Naruto ran a hand through his hair as he smirked as well with his eyes shadowed. "We know how to play the game its up our enemies to try and take us down. The further we go the closer we get to becoming our origin." He turned and walked off as everything started to fade out in white light.
"Because our mind is cracking and our soul is hatching, and I'm itching to cut loose at this upcoming battle." The seal on his back became visible before it glowed white and he vanished too.
"Onii-sama? Onii-sama!" Naruto blinked as he calmly opened his eyes from his spot laying on the couch. He looked up to see Miso looking down on him with her hands on her hips and a cute pout on her face.
'It's weird how now that I think about it we all inherited our mother's legendary temper in different ways but yet most of the time Miso is just so adorable.' When Miso get's her temper flaring you likely won't be able to get away, when Shio get's pissed you might be injured or killed without warning, and when Naruto gets pissed... well seeing as how that rarely happens with how laid-back he is if you trigger him then you probably deserve whatever fate he decides to give you as in not if but rather how you are going to die.
"Onii-sama why are you still sleeping everywhere? You have a bed for a reason, I thought you didn't get fatigued by your powers anymore ever since you awakened?"
He closed his eyes and turned away from her in an attempt to go back to sleep. "I'm lazy and doing nothing helps me build up my energy. Plus... you can't make me move."
"B-But I'm trying to clean."
"Well that's too bad." He didn't even move an inch let alone look at her. She puffed her cheeks out and her eye twitched in irritation before a lightbulb went off in her head.
She spoke in a sly tone that made Naruto's ear twitch. "Well then onii-chan. I guess I could just take a break from cleaning and get myself a snack out of your ramen and meat storage..." The last time she did that she had absentmindedly eaten out several meals worth of his food. Sense he at constantly he was a bit possessive about his food. However Miso's plan of using that to get him to get up backfired as she didn't even get to finish speaking.
Her eyes widened as a hand suddenly shot out and grabbed her before she was snatched down and trapped in the arms of Naruto being hugged closely and tightly. His eyes turned their silver white color as he gave off a sly grin at her.
"You tried to manipulate your own brother? I don't know if I should feel proud or hurt. You mistake was staying within arms reach of me, had you stayed further away you might have gotten your way." He squeezed tighter putting her in a crushing hug as she squirmed.
"Ta-! Onii-s-sama gomenasai!" She squeaked out as it got harder to breathe.
"Nope you lost but seeing you try excites me.~" He brought up one hand that suddenly erupted with dream aura. Her eyes widened in shock when the hand suddenly stabbed into her back before pulling back out her fox features. She yipped as he face went flush and she looked at him incredulously.
"D-Did you j-just force my transformation?" She wasn't sure if she should feel violated or not.
"I can force you to do a lot of things." His own wolf features emerged and he turned them over before biting into Miso neck causing her to moan out. Whatever he did to her made her body feel like it was on fire as her breasts were mashed up against his chest. She could struggle but that wasn't going to stop him now.
Naruto wasn't leaving the couch any time soon and neither was she now. So much for cleaning...
- Training Room -
"This is fucking stupid..." Tayuya laid back as she floated in the air. She glanced to the side to see Naruto laying on his twitching. The blonde groaned as he propped himself up.
"That may be..."
"Tell me again why we are doing this shit?" Naruto stood up and shook his head getting rid of his disorientation before calming down again.
"I have a huge weakness to sound based magic and sound period. That gives other people who specialize in it as well as you an enormous advantage over me and we can't have that."
Tayuya snorted before grinning at him. "Aww was your pride hurt?" She took out her flute and played another entrancing melody this time to put him to sleep. Naruto's body swayed but otherwise stood upright as his energy suddenly felt off. She walked up to him and waved a hand getting no response.
"Oh well you can't be good at everything." She jumped when one of his eyes opened back up through his hair glowing white.
"Wanna bet?" He stomped on the ground shaking off the magic along with sending a wave throughout the room making her eyes widen. "Now if you are done messing around lets get back to taking this training seriously again." She just nodded before weaving more of her magic. She would decide to just watch him from here on and gauge his progress.
Mentally Naruto rubbed his head as he chuckled. 'Well theatrical as it may have been people are going to learn eventually that I can't be driven unconscious by magical means regardless of my weaknesses. So I should stop being so dramatic about it... Nah.'
Still though sound may have been his weakness but his body was adapting and his growth rate was astounding.
- Woods sometime later -
Tama could be seen out by herself in her usual casual clothes walking through one of the lightly forested areas in the more elevated parts of the city. Not really any rhyme or reason to it as she was just going wherever the wind took her, and right now the wind took her to the current scene before her.
"Well someone made a mess." Tama stood over the downed body of Irina. The young girl looked like she had seen better days as her combat suit was in tears leaving her half naked and her breasts exposed to the open air. She had light scratches covering her and appeared to have gotten into a fight of some kind and lost. She crotched down and propped the girl up in her airs as she checked for a pulse to make sure she was still alive. The pulse was there though it was strained and weak.
Tama didn't outwardly look too concerned though as she went though the motions of checking her over like it was a daily occurrence. After seeing that she was mostly just fatigued with minor injuries she brought a hand to her ear before speaking.
"Naruto we have a problem here."
"Already on it..." There was a dark shimmer in the shadows behind her before it vanished. It was hard for her to tell when his tail was... tailing her but somehow she knew. Less than 2 minutes later a magic circle appeared with a flash as Naruto, Rias, and the gang arrived sans the twins.
Rias quickly took in the surroundings before looking at the girl and going serious mode.
"Asia heal her!"
"Hai bucchou!" The meek girl responded as she ran over to the saint girl to fix her up. After the superficial damage went away Naruto walked up and took off his school blazer to cover up the girls body. It was at that moment that there was a stirr as Irina's eyes opened a small amount. She worked what she could to heal all the injuries but that did nothing for the girls missing stamina.
"Irina?! What happened?"
"I-I'm sorry I tried..."
"Tried what?"
"Kiba and Xenovia got away but he was too strong for me. I was too slow."
"Irina tell me who it was."
"I-It was that stray exorcist Freed. Please be careful..." She passed out again after those last words left her lips. At the mention of Freed's name Naruto gained an ominous look in his eyes as he looked back at Tama.
"Tama I am holding you responsible for this mess. Fix it."
Tama blink as she looked over at him surprised. "What? What did I do?"
He stood up and walked by her as he started to leave causing Rias to look back at him confused as Sona and her group came to assist the girl. "I let that ass live because he was your brother and offing him should be your job since you said you wanted to years ago. I get that you are trying to enjoy it as long as possible but now that ass is starting to run amuck in my own territory for too long. You have no real attachment to him. End him or I will."
If he were honest with himself which he was he had grown to like that saint girl a bit but it was the fact that the girl was attacked within his range that it felt more personal. Plus the guy was getting too bold would only be a matter of time before Freed got the bright idea to attack someone closer to him.
Tama looked a bit constipated as she looked at his retreating back with a pout.
After a few moments however both Armorers froze in there thoughts before turning to look back at a tree with hard looks. Both their eyes wide as there instincts told them who was watching. Tama and Naruto spoke in unison as they picked out the person hiding behind the tree.
"We know you're there."
"Aww boo hoo you guys found me already." A chill went the the chests of the group except for Naruto, Tama, and Raynare as a familiar individual showed himself to be none other than Freed. The reason for the devils' reactions was because the stray exorcist was currently carrying 3 holy swords visible. Though Tama and Naruto could sense that he had more than just those 3.
"Onii-chan we were just talking about you~." Freed blinked confused.
"Huh." The next second there was a sword aimed an inch from his head before his reflexes kicked in and he fell to the side barely dodging the weapon as Tama sailed by and hit 2 trees splitting them down the middle. If it had not been for the holy swords on him giving him power Tama would have really killed him right then and there and that sent chills down his spine. He panicked even more as Sona and Rias got upfront and pointed their magic seals at him while Naruto casually walked closer with a menacing presence behind him.
"W-Wait don't shoot the messenger! I have important news for the Gremory!"
"Tama! Hold back for now." Freed flinched when he felt Tama's presence rigth behind him. She had a blink expression on her face with nothing but wide eyes as she held a short sword poised to stab down on the back of his head. He didn't even sense her that time. At Naruto's call she stopped before she was able to stab before blurring out of sight to stand next to Naruto causing him to raise an eyebrow at her weirdness before directing his attention back at Freed.
"You just bought yourself some time. Don't waste it?"
"Ah right well... the message I have for red over there... is that my boss is finally here!"
Everyone's eyes widened as a magic circle appeared in the air above them before in a flash of light a figure cloaked in black revealed themselves.
Rias looked up with a serious disposition as she took in the figures details.
"It's a fallen angel and it has 10 wings. Definitely of the leader class. You must be Kokabiel."
Naruto grinned his fangs wildly as he walked up and cracked his fingers. "I have been waiting for this. Now time to..." He paused as a scent filled his nose that he was very much so familiar with and gained an expression he rarely ever display. That of one who was shocked or truly surprised.
"...Wait... You're a girl?!"
Everyone looked at him before both looking at the fallen angel who clearly had masculine features with Akeno being the first to speak up.
"Um honey I don't know if you've been sleeping good lately but that is what we call a male."
Naruto shook his head as his wolf features became apparent. "No my nose always knows and I have like a sixth since for things like this. That right there is a woman in a facade.
They all looked up at the newly arrived fallen angel with a questioning gaze before the individual scowled.
"Tch I didn't even get the opportunity to formally introduce myself before that brat blew my cover." There was a flash of light as the fallen's appearance dissolved before it was replaced with a much more feminine one. Now floating above them was a woman who appeared to be in her twenties wearing the same black robe her male form had but it now meshed to her body better bring out her curves. She had long black hair with evil yellow eyes and red sclera. She had elf-like ears and fanged teeth all completed with a shade of black lipstick along her lips.
"Oh well it is still a pleasure to meet you Gremory princess and the older blond over there must be the demon there has been some buzz about. I am Nora Kokabiel, daughter of Kokabiel."
"Hot..." Rias glared over at Naruto all of them hearing his absentminded comment on the fallen angel's appearance as Akeno giggled. Putting that a side for later she decided to address the leader class.
"Well I'd have to say the pleasure is all mine I'm sure and formalities would be kind of glaring right now so you can just call me Rias. So you are a leader of the dark angels? It's nice to put a face to the name though I was not aware you were female."
Nora just grinned with contempt down on her.
"We have many secrets one being of my identity. Kokabiel my father died in the last war and so I took his place. I have to say that I'm a little jealous of that gorgeous red hair of yours. Reminds me of your handsome brother, you even hold yourself the same. Frankly I find it disgusting."
"Well thank you. Was there some kind of business you had with me or are you just here to review my appearance?"
Nora put a hand to her cheek as she thought why she was here as if she didn't already have a reason.
"Well I figured since I'm already here I might as well do some damage. I suppose I'll go wreck havok on the academy over there before having fun with the rest of the city."
"That is overstepping your boundaries. Why would you choose to do that?" She looked hard at him while Naruto just leaned against a tree with his eyes closed. He was listening but his presence was slowly dropping.
"Well I figured if I did enough destruction to this area that would gain Sirzechs attention and he would try to help his dear little sister.
"Don't you know that if you do so your actions could kick start a war between all 3 factions all over again?!" The woman laughed out loud at the idea.
"Hahahahaha! That's just what I want. I thought for sure I would at least escalate something after getting the Excaliburs taken but the church hardly did shit about it. So disappointing! I was at least hoping for Michael!"
"Wait so you actually want to start a war."
"YES! After the last war its been so boring! All this peace shit this and peace shit that! No one wanted to cross any lines anymore and those that did were too weak. The war took my father from me now I'm gonna take my piece out of this world as revenge! The other leaders weren't interested in my affairs so I acted of my own accord. Angels, Fallen, Devils, our 3 way truce is hardly even there. Such a fragile state of equilibrium is just begging to be poked. With a state as tense as this I can fuck up the balance and start a war at any time!"
At that Freed started to laugh insanely. "Don't you just love how psychotic my boss is!? And a chick too? Even better! All this war talk is making me excited! I wanna play too and I brought the toys needed for this party!"
He opened his priests robes to reveal that he indeed had every excalibur except the destruction one.
Kokabiel chuckled as she looked down amused at her servant. "Well since my henchman is all raring to go lets get this thing started shall we?" She quickly formed a magic circle and a barrage of light spears shot out at the group.
Akeno, Rias, and Sona jumped up front as they formed their own circles ready to block the assault until Naruto finally moved and pushed himself off the tree. "Tama. Raynare." That was all he had to say as both girls quickly got in front of the group and formed their magic barriers. Raynare's shield took on the attack before exploding while Tama's pulsed as they deflected deflected the spears back at Kokabiel who just flew out of the way. Nora's eyes widened not from her simple attack being deflected but at the other fallen angel.
"Raynare? Is that you? We all thought you were dead." She could clearly see that the girl was not dead. She looked mostly the same too except for her bangs having turned white and being longer than before. But there fallen angel's disposition had also lost that cocky flare that the girl had become known for.
"It's been a while Kokabiel-san. I'm under Naruto-sama's care now as his servant. Though I am shocked to find out one of the Grigori's leaders was female all this time and I didn't know about it.
Kokabiel scoffed at the girl dismissing any interest in her quickly.
"Pfft so you switched sides just to whore yourself out to that demon brat huh? How low you've fallen."
Raynare glared in anger as he hands glowed from her sacred gear ready to attack before Naruto appeared in front of her making her calm down.
"She didn't switch sides. She joined me and I'm not aligned with any particular signal sector. Also you wanna talk about falling? Have you forgotten what you are? You're a fucking FALLEN angel. Don't be a hypocrite."
Nora growled at Naruto's words. "Do not talk down to me as if you were above me let alone my equal worm!" She held up her hand and formed a truck sized lance of light before chucking it down at Naruto at highspeed. Naruto crossed his arms to shield himself and stepped back as it came down right in front of his and blew up in the ground knocking him away as he skidded backwards. He was covered in light scratches and burns as he put down his arms but was otherwise fine.
"Damnit I really hate fighting women. Why did Kokabiel have to be a woman? What bullshit is this!" Rias ran up behind him with her group.
"Naruto-kun we can take her-."
"No I just need you guys as back up. What I really need you to do is set up a barrier on this whole city so no humans will know what's happening. I don't need any outside interference other than that."
Rias looked about ready to argue when Naruto shot back at her a glare so intimidating that she submitted almost instantly.
Akeno walked up with a nervous giggle. "Umm Naruto-kun you should know that I've already contacted Sirzechs-sama about Kokabiel."
This caused both teens to look over at her with an eye twitch as Akeno sweat dropped. Naruto sighed and face palmed.
"Well Grayfia isn't going to be too happy..."
- Naruto's House -
Grayfia didn't look too happy at all as she stood on top of the house and looked out at the city while Tayuya floated about behind her not looking too interested. She could sense they energy from here and from what Sirzechs had just told her Kokabiel was in the area. Naruto didn't tell her anything about this but she had a feeling he knew this would happen. The fact that his sisters were now trying to block her from going proved that.
Shio and Miso now stood with their arms out in front of Grayfia while looking a little nervous. Naruto wouldn't want her to interfere but the twins knew that Grayfia would be too much trouble to actually physically stop.
"Move out of the way so I can go deal with this leader class."
Shio shook her head as she spoke.
"Sorry but I can't do that. Oniisama wanted to do this alone."
"So I was right he was hiding this from me." Grayfia frown not liking that Naruto had lied to her about something so dangerous.
"Well yes... but he knew that if you knew about it that you would try to interfere and he wouldn't get the chance to fight which is what's happening right now."
"Which is as it should be. You all are getting in over your heads with this. Kokabiel is believed to be around Satan class!"
"And you don't seem to get that while you may have rank this is not your territory. Let those who have ownership hash it out first."
She blinked in disbelief at them. "Do you really think your brother is a match for Kokabiel?"
Shio shrugged before answering. "I know that when my oniisama says he is going to do something he does it. So I trust him to hold to his word in something as serious as this. So I ask that you please just have faith in him like we do."
Grayfia looked at them long and hard and saw they didn't plan to budge an inch. She had grown to enjoy being around the young demon of a man so she figured she might as well bet on him.
"Fine I will hold off but the moment things get out of hand I'm stepping in."
The twins let out a huge breath of relief at hearing those words.
"Arigato Grayfia-san. Now could you help us put a barrier over this city to prevent the loss of lives to innocent bystanders? I think we are going to need it.
- Back with the group -
Nora sighed in boredom as she looked down at the group. "If you all are done talking lets get this show on the road already before I die of boredom." She held out her hand and fired a beam of light down at the ground causing it to erupt in flames as the appearance of a large three headed dog was summoned. The beast was easily the size of a 3 story house.
Naruto smirked as he looked at the creature. "Heh so Cerburus, the grand guard dog of hell? This is going to be fun!" His smirk dropped when the ground erupted as multiple more Cerberus dogs appeared.
"...Well shit."
"Hahaha have fun boy! I will be waiting over at the academy if you survive. For the sake of your pretty face I hope you do." With that Nora vanished with a flash of light.
"Hmph she's getting too cocky." He pounded his fist into his palm and flexed as Dream Weaver engulfed his body to replace his clothes with a black body suit and combat pants while keeping his demonic arm bandaged. His wolf features slowly made their appearance as he went feral. He walked forward and cracked his neck while the others got ready.
"Will Rias I trust you can handle a few of these. Tama back them up and take care of wherever Freed went off to. Now lets get started!" He crotched down on all fours as his white eyes flashed and his wings emerged. The ground broke around him as he tensed up and Tama flinched as the positioning was familiar to her.
After he built up his charge he took off a split second later like a missile spinning with a torrent of black aura going like a drill. He impacted a cerberus in the chest with a howl before continuing and knocking it back and all the way down the hill in a trench as it yelp in pant and blood scattered in the air.
"AAOOOOOOOOOOO!"
He just basically tackled a house over the distance of a football field.
The gang blinked as the looked off at where Naruto went. Akeno giggled into her hand at the seen. "Ara ara well he seems ready to go."
Rias rubbed her temples feeling a headache forming before putting on her game face. "Alright my peerage lets put on our best offensive and send these beasts back to hell so we can hurry up and deal with Kokabiel!"
And so the battle begun.
- Kyoto Japan -
A familiar golden Kitsune woman was looking down at Naruto through a viewing screen as her old man of a father sat down next to her. "Well oto-sama lets see how far Naruto has come shall we?"
The old Kitsune known as Hatsuse stroked his beard as he looked on the screen at his grandson. 'Yes let's see how much you will show this time Naruto-kun. Give us a show!'
- END -
AN: And that's that. Gotta pull out the stops for this fight. Naruto is going full power. You are gonna see some new trumps he has been holding on to. Next chapter I plan on having in a week. Gotta speed up and I plan to.
I've been watching a lot of anime but its been so long since the last post that I'm not gonna really mention them this time plus the website I've been using for anime is down for however long. The only one I will say I have been watching is Cyborg 009. It's 2012 movie and I'm still watching its 2001 series.
Also for those who want to see my art I made a Deviant art yesterday. I am also happy to say that I drew my latest drawing of what the twins face looks like the first day of class last week and it is the best one yet. Really close to how they look. I am also happy today in class I drew what Naruto looked like. I have to say this one is basically perfect and I plan to add color soon.
Check out my Deviant if you want to see them as well as some other anime drawings I've done lately. Be sure to comment to I'm ZRAIARZ on Deviant too. I will also be uploading what the poke girls look like on my deviant too but since they aren't my art I will not be taking credit for them.
