Pokemon and Naruto journeys of love pain and survival.

Chapter 1

I don't own either one or the other characters and worlds. I've attempted to combine Naruto Ben Ten and pokemon along with my skyrim fic. Though i do own my OCs.

High above the heavens transcending the planet and the universe below the hall of legends. In heaven a young man stood on the grass looking into a small pool of water observing his home planet. This young man had long black hair, brown eyes and was around 6 feet tall, his face had some scars from a savage beating he had received 10 years ago. The emotional scars from the betrayl of some of his friends and what happened to the woman he loved more than his own life still haunted him and likely always would. He'd never forgive those that betrayed though he had long since forgiven the women who were there after he found out that they'd been forced to do it. He remembered everything every single detail of that day vividly. He was interrupted from his thoughts when a yellow rodent like pokemon jumped onto his shoulder.

Pikapi chu pi pi chu pikacha? Pi chu pikachupi kachu? asked the little mouse. The young man had long since learned to understand the language of pokemon so where the pokemons chanting would be meaningless to most he understood perfectly. The young mans deeper voice was soon heard.

'Yea Pikachu i am thinking about that day and yes i am also thinking about Misty. Want me to tell you the story pikachu i think i'm finally ready.' The little mouse pokemon nodded and looked at his trainer solemly knowing it always pained his trainer to even think about it or his best friend. Pikachu knew how much his trainer loved the beautiful young redheaded woman. He also knew how much the woman or well women loved him even if his trainer had been incredibly dense till he got older and finally realized his feelings. 'Ok Pikachu here goes.'

(Flashback 10 years ago Ash's perspective day of betrayl.)

Ash was currently heading back to his home in Pallet Town from Professor Oaks lab. Now 18 he had cahnged quite abit. Now 6 ft. tall he was taller than any of the women he knew. Brock had been a bit taller but not by much. His denseity mostly gone and his feelings not only for Misty but also for many of the other women he had met had been realized. Though his feelings for his best human friend Misty were the strongest. "I can't wait to see everybody. Mom, Misty, May, Dawn, Iris, Serena, Bonnie, Clemont, Ritchie, Tracey, my old rival Gary, i heard Cynthia received an invite as well so she might be here though it's unlikely considering how busy she is." He thought as he got to pallet town.

He left his pokemon including pikachu as they had wanted to be around the other pokemon before they went to see Delia. He sighed wishing his father hadn't up and left before he was born. At least then his mother would have had someone to keep her company when Ash left on his journey. "I think i'm going to halt my journey for a bit and spend a bit of time home. With mom and maybe just maybe i'll be able to confess to Misty. I only hope she feels the same." Ash thought as he arrived at his house knocking on the door. The second the door opened he was greeted and wrapped in a hug by an overjoyed Delia.

'I missed you soo much Ash. I'm so glad your home.' She said as she inhaled his scent reveling in the fact her son was home. Her face soon grew sad and pained. She let him in and he could see by the red around her eyes that she had been crying. He was about to ask what she was so sad about when he was greeted with the rest of his friends. The men were beside the women with grins on their faces and mailice in their eyes. While the women had looks of hate on their faces but nothing but pain and sorrow in their eyes. Ash could tell that none of the women were actually angry at him or wanted to be in whatever situation they were in. When he saw their eyes he was on his guard instantly. He saw multiple pokeballs open up behind the women and an assortment of pokemon appear.

"What's going on here? Why are the women in such emotional pain? I'll act like nothings wrong. See where this goes. I hope nothing happened to the girls. Misty looks almost angry but it's overwhelmed by sadness. Ok just be calm and act normal."

'Hey guys it's good to see you all again. Why do you all seem so angry? Even mom looks angry. Did something happen?' He asked seeing the men looking at eachother then at him and nudge the girls a bit to get them to speak. Serena was the first to speak. 'Ash we all want you to give up on your journey and on being able to amount to anything in this world. We want you to dissappear and never return. Get out of my life and don't ever return! I can't stand to even look at you! Serana screamed the last part as she and the other women teared up at the terribly heartbroken look on his face and in his eyes. Ash saw her nearly collapse from the pain of saying this to him though was yanked back up by Calem who put his arms around her and smirked despite the disgusted look on Serenas face when he touched her.

'What in Arceus' name are you talking about?' He asked calmly playing dumb. He knew now all the women were being forced but their words still tore him apart inside. He was sure they wouldn't say these things to him without being forced or blackmailed into it. Iris was the next to speak. 'Seriously kid you need to dissappear. Take your own life so we can live with our men in peace. You should know by now that we all hate you with a passion.' She said tearfully. Ash definitely knew something was going on seeing the tears flowing from her and the others eyes.

'Why would you all hate me and want me to take my own life. I've never wronged any of you.' He continued to play the fool card even though he could clearly see what was going on here. Dawn was next to speak with tears falling down her face. I wish we had never met Ash. You being around me was nothing more than a problem. You never helped with my contests and always wanted to do nothing but battle. It's pathetic and just so you know i hate you i've always hated you and i would never have loved you. I'm with Kenny now.' She said when Kenny pulled her into a kiss. Ash was disgusted by the manuever but had to stop himself from laughing when Dawn turned green from the kiss and threwup in Kennys mouth.

'Ok so you hate me that's fine. As long as we're aquaintances.' He said straining a bit despite himself from seeing Kenny kiss Dawn. May also spoke. 'You may have saved me in the sea temple Ash but you also broke me with your love of a certain redheaded whore. I loved you then but i don't anymore. I'll make sure Manaphy knows his supposed papa wasn't his papa. Drew is. I want to watch you drown in your own blood and spit on your grave.' She said like all the other girls as she tried to make sure it sounded like she meant it even though he knew she didn't.

Ash was getting angry now. He knew Drew was whispering to May telling her exactly what to say. The pain in her eyes only increased with every word she said. Misty was the last to speak. He could see it plainly she didn't hide her disgust at the men around her. But she started speaking and he prepared for the worst pain of all. 'Ash i...' He waited for her to finish what she was saying but she went silent refusing to speak. Ash saw Gary grope her and Ritchie pull out a knife and poked Misty in the back hard with it. Causing her to jump and cringe. 'Ash i..i.. I LOVE YOU ASH! RUN THEY'RE GOING TO KILL YOU! She screamed out quickly before she punched Ritchie in the gut and broke Garys nose. Attempting to give Ash enough time to run. Even if she knew he wouldn't. His eyes had widened and he was shocked that she did love him but he decided to not run but fight. He attacked Gary as well but was quickly grabbed by Calem and several pokemon. He fought against them and saw Drew holding his mother down as she struggled to get free and help defend her baby and the rest of the women were pinned down by the pokemon just in case they got any ideas about fighting. He fought and managed to actually knock out one of the pokemon out with his fists. He saw Misty become overwhelmed before she was brought down to the floor and parts of her clothing were ripped off. Ash fought to get to her. Harder than he'd ever fought for anything. He was held back by two other stronger pokemon and Calem as he watched in slow motion when Gary stabbed Misty directly in the stomach and when Ritchie did the same and sliced her open all the way to her panties and stabbed her in the abdomen over and over again. Her screams of absolute agony as she was sliced.

Ash remembered Gary and Ritchie laughing. They spoke in unison. 'This will teach you not to deny us you cumslut.' They laughed afterword as Misty lost more and more blood and She had opened her eyes and looked straight at Ash as he fought harder and harder and finally got free before she lost conciousness. He disarmed Gary quickly and used the Knife to stab Ritchie in the gut. Before stabbing Gary and the other two pokemon holding her down in the shoulder. He had picked her up and attempted to run to get away and take her to a hospital but he dropped her when Tracys scyther drove it's blade like hands deep into Ash's chest puncturing both his lungs and stomach. He dropped Misty and landed beside her when he hit the floor. There were sudden flashes as he saw attacks sent towards the men and pokemon with them. It drove them away and he saw mewtwo rip apart one of the men with psychic and then he and Misty and the other women were engulfed in a bright white light.

He appeared in the middle of the hall of legends in front of Arceus and all the legendaries with Misty a blood soaked mess. He saw Arceus looking down at him but he didn't care. With every ounce of willpower in his body he crawled over to Mistys still and bleeding form when several small legendaries and Arceus were healing her. He had grabbed her cold hand and gave her a gentle kiss on her lips before he passed out. He had awoken later on fully healed and looked where his hand was. It was on latias' lap in her hand and where he should see a dragon pokemon. He saw a beautiful nude young woman with all the pokemons markings and wings coming from her back and slightly elongated head. His mind instantly went to Misty though not really acknoledging the beauty holding his hand. Even with the nearly unbearable pain in his chest which he quickly found out had been healed. He stood up and started to look for Misty. I never mattered little how much he hurt he was more than prepared to endure any kind of pain to be with her. He was pushed back down and gently held there by Palkia. He struggled and refused to stop even when Arceus addressed him.

'Ash stop struggling your just wearing yourself out. We won't let you up until you calm down.' Arceus sighed and seeing that Ash was not going to stop anytime soon so he delivered a paralysis attack which quickly immobilized Ash. Who looked at him with absolute rage in his eyes which was intimidating to almost all the legends except for Mewtwo and Arceus. Palkia jumped away from him in fear and surprise. 'Arceus what was that for? I had him under control.'

'Yes i know but the more he struggles the worse pain he'll be in. Now Ash stop looking at me like that. I know you're worried about Misty and the other women but they're fine. Misty has been healed and can still bear children. We made sure of that seeing as that's one of the reasons they attacked her. You're lucky to have someone who is more than willing to jump into danger just to keep you safe. I will later tell you what forced the other women there to betray you but for now just know they're all safe now. We made sure of that.' Arceus said seeing Ash relax even if he was paralyzed he could still use aura to move some. Arceus then continued.

'I have given Mistys Gyrados and the other girls' pokemon major boosts. Gyrados is now assigned to be young Mistys' constant protector meaning his pokeball will be on her at all times even if she tries to remove it. The second that trouble shows up he will unleash himself and defend her. Same with certain other pokemon with the girls. So for the moment they will be safe. Now Your best friend and love is safe but she'll be mentally scarred for life. Seeing you attacked really took a toll on her worse than any other time. You will be allowed to see everyone again someday but for know you must get healed.' He saw Ash nod sadly. It would not be easy for him to stay away from human contact for so long but he would endure.

'Can i at least tell Misty how i feel?' Ash asked hoping there was going to be at least some way he could speak to her. After a little bit of thinking Arceus nodded and a pen and paper along with a desk appeared in front of him. Ash hoisted himself into the chair and proceeded to write everything he had ever felt about her on the paper making sure to put his name at the end so she'd know who it was from.

'Mew deliver this to that young woman and come straight back.' Said Arceus as Ash folded the letter and put inside an envelope writing Mistys name on the front. Mew took it and disappeared in a flash of pink and reappeared about two minutes later. Mew nodded to Ash and Arceus signalling a successful delivery.

'Ok Ash it's time to get heled and get stronger. All your pokemon are here and ready. Though it's going to take a bit of time for them to calm down after all they know everything.' Arecus said before Ash was teleported to place hidden away from most everyone.

(Flashback end)

'That's what happened Pikachu. I miss her terribly Pikachu. Misty was, no is the most precious person in my life. Of course you know this. Sadly i'm sure she's moved on. I wouldn't expect her to wait for me. I wouldn't want her to. She deserves every chance in the world to be happy. As much as i wish it was me i'd rather see her happy with someone else than waiting 10 or more years for me. I know just how unhappy she would be if she did wait. I just hope she's happy. But i can't bear to see her again. Espeacially if she has moved on. It will hurt far to much and i'm not ready to face that anger that i've stayed away for all this time. She's probably forgotten about me anyway.' Said Ash tears threatening to fall as he couldn't bring himself to think about it.

Pikachu sighed. His trainer had no idea just how much Misty trully loved him. Pikachu knew alot more about her and the other ladies that his trainer did. As did his pokemon but they had been sworn to secrecy. If Ash found out it'd just be harder and harder for him to stay and not try to leave over the years when his training wasn't yet complete. Arceus had allowed the pokemon to see the women and keep an eye on their activities just so they knew how much the women loved him and they could try to keep his spirits up. Enough to wait ten or more years for Ash to return. It did weird him out though when he found out Ash's mother was in love with Ash. He also knew bayleef and Latias hadn't made a move on Ash yet. Arceus had not allowed it. Not until he returned and was ready. Even going so far as to make them both put clothes on so Ash wouldn't see their nude humanoid bodies so his hormones wouldn't get the best of him.

Pikachu grinned a bit making sure Ash didn't see it. "Oh Ash you have absolutely no idea what's going to happen when we return. I can't wait to see his face. I had a little discussion with Mewtwo yesterday now that it's time for Ash to return. Now that the General as we know him has just arrived in the aegis system where our home world is located. He'll have his revenge and be able to love and protect the women much easier with that half human half angel gets to our planet. Hmm. I can't wait to see his face when Mewtwo teleports us right in front of the Cerulean City Gym. He's soo going to freak. This is soo awesome and i get a front row seat. Now time for Ash to speak to Arceus." Thought Pikachu still grinning as they were both engulfed in a bright white light.

Ash and Pikachu appeared in the hall of legends in front of all the legendaries. Ash looked around a bit surprised to be here again. He smiled at Latias who blushed bright red and waved at him confusing him. He really didn't understand why pokemon that looked nearly human would blush like that when he smiled or talked to them. Hah Ash was still a little dense. He was soon tackled by two little legends. Namely Manaphy and Meloetta. Meloetta cooed when he scratched her head and Manaphy smiled while calling him Papa. Ash himself couldn't help but smile at the two as he got back up and kissed Manaphy on her head though was rather suprised when she suddenly glowed and transformed into an eighteen year humanoid female with all the markings and the antenna of the regular manaphy. He was glad that almost as soon as she changed she had clothes on. He smiled when she snuggled into him chanting papa over and over again. He looked around oddly at the other legends who had dead panned looks and Arceus who face palmed then at Meloetta who was giggling like crazy and then at Pikachu who was rolling around on the ground laughing seeing his trainer in a slight state of shock and bewilderment obsiously not knowing why she suddenly changed form.

Arceus cleared his throat. 'Manaphy it's time to let papa go. You can smother him with love later whenever he goes to Hoenn.' He shivered a bit when Manaphy gave him an angry look. She didn't want to be seperated from her papa again. She pouted cutely. (Fine old one i'll let him go.) Manaphy said clearly irritated before kissing Ash's cheek and bounding back into her council seat blushing beat red. This causing Pikachu to laugh harder. He slowly stopped and then jumped back onto Ash's shoulder seeing Arceus was ready to speak.

'So Ash as you can have guessed why you're here. It's time for you to return to the pokemon world.' Arceus waited till the surprise on Ash's face disappead before continuing. 'That's right Ash you're going back. I am allowing it now because you not only haven't been ready before but also because you are going to have to help in not only your revenge but also in protecting the pokemon world. I...' Arceus was interrupted by Ash's angry voice.

'I don't need or want help. I can handle it all on my own. I don't need your help either!' Said Ash getting angry. He wanted to take his revenge all on his own. He didn't want anyone to interfere or try to stop him.

'SILENCE!' Arceus yelled making everyone even Ash and Mewtwo cringe and back away. 'You will accept the man's help and you will allow him to befriend you. He'll be an excellant and very powerful friend. He's on his way to your planet right now. You must be ready for his arrival. He's there to help you and everyone else drive off an invasion of pure evil that is coming. It's soo strong even i can't stop it! Do you understand what i'm saying if they come to the pokemon world they will destroy everything and everyone if his help isn't accepted. He's here because his strong senses have sensed the love that you have for the women in your life. He also knows that wherever there is human life they will come to destroy it. If you don't accept his help then i will send you back stripped of your aura powers and pokemon.' Arceus threatened. Making sure Ash knew he was serious. If Ash didn't agree to the mans help then he would likely die. He knew this man wasn't one to let anything or anyone interfere with the defense of the human race even if he had to kill a few humans to do it.

Ash sighed seeing that Arceus was serious and dropped his pride. 'Fine Arceus. But tell me how can this one man help me defend the pokemon world? He's just one person. It's not like he has an army with him.' said Ash still looking irritated but listening and not about to speak out of turn again.

Arceus grinned so did many of the male legendaries. 'Actually Ash he does have an army with him. He has specifically trained those soldiers and civilians to fight the evil alien menace threatening the human race. In fact he has had much success driving them off his own home world. He comes soon so you better be prepared espeacially when he trains you. You think some of my training was brutal. It's nothing compared to his. Espeacially since he will be personally training you. Of course he will be running between worlds. His world is safe at least from the creatures. But in this system there are two other planets occupied by humans and he will be bouncing back and forth between worlds. Now he arrives two your planet within the next two weeks. Prepare yourself and your ladies accordingly with luck you won't die from the training. Luckily they won't have to face his training. I highly doubt they'd survive the shere pain and brutality of it. I doubt most people would if they hadn't been previously conditioned for it. Now it is time to return to your world. Mewtwo you know what to do. Spoke Arceus in a commanding and authorative voice.

Pikachu smirked at this. He looked at Mewtwo as he appeared beside him and Ash and winked. Mewtwo winked back knowing that where he was going was going to be a major surprise. "Ooh this is going to be soo good. I should really get some popcorn to watch from the stands. His reaction will be priceless." Thought pikachu secretly snikering as Mewtwo teleported them to a specific location Pikachu had in mind.

Meanwhile on the edge of the Aegis system.

A massive ship had just appeared out of a large wormhole in space. Making all it's passengers and crew shake and fall over with the sudden jolt from reappearing at such speed and the rather sudden stop. A young man pulled himself and beautiful woman who had landed on him up from the floor along with his crew. You alright Serana he asked while supporting her in his arms. "Yes Aaron i'm fine i landed on something soft but firm at the same time." She then looked at him coyly causing a large grin to appear on both there faces. He turned away and then spoke into a speaker. 'Wow that was rough i didn't expect that. Damage report.'

(Not much General Baker. Mostly broken glasses in peoples rooms and alot of broken plates in the mess halls. Twelve soldiers injured from smacking into the bulkheads and ten civilians also hurt mostly from flying glass. It should be cleaned up very quickly no animals were hurt.) Said the voice through the speaker.

'Good that's good. Pity about the people though. Anyway how bout the ships systems and weapon systems along with the ships armor and reactors.' Said the man now known as General Aaron Baker into said speaker. (Green across the board sir.) said the man on the other side of the speaker. 'Excellent you're dismissed.' Aaron said before turning to one of the ships navigators. 'Estimated time of arrival to the closest human inhabited planet Mr. Navigator.'

The navigator spoke. (One year if we go at the ships maximum speed. Now before you get angry we could get there within the hour if we use the hyperdrive system. It should take around four to six hours to get to the other two planets from there without using the hyperdrive at maximum speed.) 'Good set course we're heading to the closest human planet. Some of the scientists have already designated it XW999. Also i want five frigates and two engineering ships to be loaded immediately. They'll be briefed soon. I want a portal large enough that ship can easily fit through it built immediately. We'll need it in case we need to evacuate these planets.' (Yes General.) Said the navigator who immediately bolted to deliver the orders. Aaron simply lifted the woman beside him up in the air with his psychic power before grabbing her and carrying her over his shoulder to their room via teleporter. He smirked when she yelled playfully for him to put her down. He proceeded to throw her onto their bed before tackling jumping onto it beside her. They both were laughing as she straddled him and kissed him lovingly.

"Sorry sweetheart but no sex today. Like you said we have other things to do. I hope there's a fresh bloodpack in the fridge for me." She started laughing when a little chihuahua named Taco jumped on the bed and proceeding to snuggle up to his owners. Then under the beds blankets. They both smiled at their little pet. He was so adorable.

Serana playfully pushed Aaron off of her and went to the kitchen while her every move was watched by an admiring eye. 'You know Taco i am one lucky man. Never figured i'd find someone as loving as Andrea was. But i did and i couldn't be happier. At least i have a reason to be happy again besides you.' Aaron said petting and talking to his little dog.

Serana came back about five minutes later satisfied with the blood she had consumed. She lay next to her mate and kissed him before she fell asleep with a small smile on her face. For an hour or so Aaron admired the features of the beautiful vampire who rested happily beside him. He hoped that what they had would last all eternity. Losing her would be far more than his heart could take. Kissing her gently he got up and proceeded to head back to the bridge but not before taking one more longing look at his love. Sighing he teleported to the bridge.

(Officer on deck.) said a shoulder loudly as once Aaron reappeared on the bridge. Receiving salutes from the soldiers. He saluted them. 'As you were.' He said watching his soldiers go to do whatever they had been doing. He pushed a small blue button bringing a video screen up where he was looking at a gathering of fifteen hundred soldiers and two hundred and fifty civilians.

'Good morning. I have an assignment for you men and women. You are to immediately board five frigates and two small engineering ships. You will be proceeding to three to four miles from our current location and begin construction in the middle of space on a portal large enough to accomodate this ship. It's for emergency use only. You are industrious Americans so i want it done yesterday. You have a month to complete the project. Also i want a self destruct device put inside it just in case it needs to be destroyed if the aliens decide to try and use it. Failure is not an option now get to it. That is all.' He watched as all nodded and proceeded to run to their ships.

He shut off the screen and looked out the thick glass upon the magnificent ship that he commanded and the stars in the very very far distance. It was relaxing to watch the stars and space which he needed. If the recent scans were anything to go by then they would soon be engaged in all out war against the alien forces looking to destroy all of humanity. They were in the system and already near one of the planets. They'd likely be there before him. They tended to deposit their troops and then bolt espeacially when U.S. space ships show up. He watched as seven ships departed from a large door in the hall and head away. As soon as the door closed he sighed. These were going to be some very very long years. Aaron hit the hyperdrive button causing them to take off at blinding speed towards XW999.

(35 minutes later.)

'All hands prepare for a sudden stop we exiting hyperspace in 3...2...1.' Said Aaron as the he hit the hyperdrive button again and was jerked back and forth almost onto the floor from the sheer force of the ships sudden stop. He guessed this wasn't really normal. He'd worry about it later though. It was time to head to the planet that the enemy fleets were closest to. He looked at his one of the men scanning the planet XW999 for the specific alien signitures and any other hostile alien activity. 'What's on the scans soldier?' Aaron asked as they began to orbit the planet taking a quick look before heading to the the one in the most danger.

(Nothing sir planets clea... hang on a moment. What is that?) Aaron walked over to the man scanning the planet. 'What is it?' Aaron asked. (Sir huge alien signature i don't know how it just appeared but it's nothing like we've seen before. It's definitely one of the those devils minion aliens. Looks like two no one human is in combat with it. There's a mutant human fighting off some kind of creature and one human up against a tree it seems. Possibility of being serverly injured is high.) Said the man examining the planet.

'I see. Good job. We must kill the creature.' Aaron said before using a phone to call the armory. 'Send my sword down to the where the alien signiture is located on planet immediately. I'll be heading down in a invasion pod in the next thirty seconds. Now get some ships and soldiers ready there may be alot more. I want medics as well, looks like we have an injured civilian down there as well. Move your asses!' He said and ordered into the phone. He then used the teleporter on his wrist and dissappered in a flash of green and reappearing in the same flash of green in the pod room. Where a soldier saluted and he saluted back. 'Is my sword on it's way?' He asked. Seeing the soldier nod he boarded one of the pods. 'Alright soldier close it up and send me down. Time for fun' Said Aaron as the pod closed and was quickly ejected from the underside of the ship.

He held on tightly excited by the thrill of battle as he called it. (10 miles from target. Twenty seconds till impact) said the automated voice. 'I probably should have put my armor on. Ah well i kinda want to show off a bit. I'll make sure that creature dies. Evil like that doesn't deserve to exist.' Thought Aaron as the voice spoke again.

(5 seconds till impact.) 'Ok here we go time to fight.' He thought. (4...3...2...1.) Said the automated voice.

On planet XW999 just as the fiery pod lands.

Gwen Tennyson was doing everything she could to make the seal on Ben's arm to start blinking with her magic. The blinking would signal when Ben was about to change back into his human form. She used her spells at maximum power while avoiding the out of control alien form of Ben. If she didn't he was no doubt going to die from whatever was in that burning object heading towards them. The sword not far from them no doubt belonging to whatever being was in that flaming thing.

Bens alien form managed to swipe her off of him. Causing her to fly a couple feet away landing near the sword. Bens alien quickly stood up and charged Gwen just as she was unsteadily getting to her feet. Though they were both blown backwards as the flaming metal object landed. It steamed as it stood there. A small but powerful explosion caused everyone around to be blown back about 10 feet from the object. The dust and smoke surrounding the object concealed whatever being layed within. Gwen was quickly to her feet using her spells on the omnitrix the very second she got up. (I have to get Ben back to his human form. If not he will die.) She thought as she pushed all her power into the spells she was using on the omni seal on Bens arm. Though her and everyone else who wasn't unconcious stared as the smoke and dust cleared as a massive man slowly stood and then turned staring at them. His glare directed at Ben. He then grabbed the sword and ripped it out of the ground with absolutely no effort and held it in one hand like it was as light as a feather. Gwen was terrified of this man though she wouldn't show it. It just may be too late to safe Ben now. But that wasn't about to stop her.

She was startled when a large gust of wind blew past her and she saw the blade that caused it carve a deep gouge in Bens chest. She saw a few of her own hairs fall from how close it came to her. She started shooting lightning spells at the man but was surprised when he started running and suddenly disappeared only to reappear behind Ben hitting him with the blunt side of the sword sending Ben flying. The crack and simultaneous scream of agony came from Bens alien form as his arm was snapped in half when it collided with a tree. Gwen was shocked seeing this and attacked the man with renewed vigor. Going so far as to send two spinning mana blades towards the mans neck. To her surprise the man simply blocked the blades with his sword. The mana blades should have went straight throught that weapon. She continued attacking trying to give Bens omitrix enough time to time out. Of course she knew if this man got close to her or Ben they'd probably both die. (As soon as i get a chance when he gets distracted i'm heading back to Ben. I have a feeling this will end as soon as the omnitrix times out.) Thought Gwen as she avoided sudden push from the mans hand as she jumped away.

(Wait a second he's not trying to hurt me. If he was i'd be dead by now. He's fast alot faster than me or Ben. Maybe i can distract him with conversation. It might work even with how serious he looks.) "Who are you and why are you attacking my cousin?" She asked hopeing he'd at least slow down. She noticed he gave he a quizzical look. Before shoving his fist into a small boulder and and throwing it at Ben she managed to deflect it away from him with her telekinesis. She saw the large man smirk at her.

'Ah telekinesis seems i'm not the only with psychic powers. You can't protect that alien from me for long. I'm here to destroy any and all aliens from this specific species.' He said roughly before he picked the up young woman using his own telekinesis and tossed her aside before heading towards the his target before looking up at sky quickly at what seemed like another huge fireball decending on them. He smirked. 'Finally. Now time to finish off the alien.'

Gwen slowly got up from the ground. He hadn't even tossed her very far but it still hurt like heck. She of course bolted to Ben after looking at the same fireball that slowly stopped and as the fire around it dissapeared a large ship appeared out of it floating effortlessly over the landscape. It was the size of one of a a part of the nearby city but not huge. It was small but she quickly saw a few helicopters fly out of the side of the hall heading right for them. (I really hope those aren't the big guys reinforcements.) Gwen thought as she jumped onto the man's back as the man's fist connected with the Ben's face sending the young man in alien form flying. Gwen herself was easily thrown of the man and managed to land on her feet right in front of Bens unconcious form. She noticed the omnitrix symbol flashing which meant Bens watch was timing out. She saw the man still coming sword raised. She leaped onto Bens still form and created a magic shield over her and Ben and held it closing her eyes when she saw the massive blade come of from behind the man as he swung sword over head and it decended towards them fast. The last thing she thought was. (Ben i'm sorry.) Before she felt a rush of wind and momentarily blacked out.

Gwen regained her senses a second later when she heard a surprised voice. 'What the fuck! He's human?!' She heard the man yell and she felt the feeling of cold steel against her nose. She opened her eyes and saw the giant swords blade was against her nose and had left a small gash on Bens forhead as the blade had just barely but with ease split his skin. She looked into the sword seeing how big it really was and how it had cut through her shield like it was nothing. She quickly realized that neither her nor Ben were dead and the man had somehow stopped the massive sword just before it cleaved Bens head in half. Looking into the mans eyes she saw total shock. (Wow he really thought Ben was an alien. He's definitely not from this planet. Hmm.) She thought as the man lifted the sword away and shoved the blade about a foot into the ground. While crossing his arms with a sigh.

She saw he was about to say something before a stone fist collided with his face. She looked at Kevin who had taken the opportunity to attack the man now that he had disarmed himself. She was surprised to see the not even more. Just his head moved a little sideways and his skin rippled but not much else. Even Kevin seemed surprised. Gwen saw the man give Kevin a look that promised imminent death. 'Bad move boy.' Said the large man darkly as before Kevin could even blink the mans hand was over his face and the man curled the fingers of his large hand squeezing Kevins skull tight causing him to scream in pain. Even mutated he was no match for the man. The mans hand grew tighter and tighter. Gwen cringed when she heard a couple sickening cracks seeing the man simply flick a finger into Kevins ribs and Kevins screams of agony. She actually felt bad for him. But if it had been her doing this she'd probably have stopped now letting him know the pain she went through. Though his was physical not emotional.

You both wish to know my name no doubt so. 'My name is Aaron Baker. I'm a general in the military of the United States of America. That's all you get for now.' Said the man now known as Aaron. Before letting go of Kevins face and delivering a knee gently into his chest which sent him flying. Aaron then looked back at Gwen who was holding Bens body in her lap using some sort of spell to examine his injuries.

(Did you have to be so rough on them?) Gwen asked him. Getting a nod from the man. Before noticing the helicopters landing one with a red cross on it. She saw which if the firepower they were carrying was anything to go by a couple squads of soldiers jump out and take positions around the copters while others ran towards them. Picking Kevin up on a strecher and then took Ben out of her arms and onto a seperate strecher and heading back before she could even blink.

(Hey where are you taking me cousin?!) She screamed as she teleported to one of the copters but was quickly pushed off the helicopter and it along with the other two took off when Ben was loaded. They moved fast very fast she couldn't really get a good enough bead on them to teleport again. She looked at the ship and built up he powers it was all she could do before a hand with green magic surrounding it landed on her shoulder and she was gently laid on the ground paralyzed. Looking at Aaron standing above her.

She saw him smell the air. 'Hmm blood. Must be coming from the unfortunate young woman against that tree.' He said as he cast a detect life spell on the young woman. 'Ah she's alive though barely. You know you're lucky i was toying with your cousin. I was going for the kill but i guess you're both lucky he changed into a human. He'd be dead if he hadn't. I cannot kill an innocent human. I made that vow when i first joined the military. I know you want to see your cousin again. So i'll make you a deal if i let the paralysis disperse and heal and reunite you with your cousin then you both become my informants on this planet.' He said simply. By the confused look in her eyes she obviously didn't understand.

'Ok Gwen listen to me. I know you are quite smart but i will put it simply anyway. This world of yours is not the only human planet in this system. There are two others and i am here to prevent the annihalation of human kind. What your cousin became was a one of their larger foot soldiers. It is my job to eradicate that entire speacies. We've tried being reasonable and negotiate but it never works and we've all seen inside them. They're pure evil descended from the deepest pits of hell. They tried taking over my planet but we drove them off. Most of their fleet has arrived in this system and i need eyes on planet so i can coordinate military operations. If you wish to see you, your cousin and everyone you love live then i advise you take my offer. But if you don't you'll both die. I can't be in three places at once.' Aaron said seriously.

Waiting for her answer her went over and gently picked up Charmcaster. Laying he down gently beside Gwen. He dispelled the paralysis. She nodded as he started grunting and her eyes widened when blood spilled from the mans back and bones ripped from his back into the air taking the form of wings that quickly filled out with nerves muscles skin and feathers that shot out of the skin covering it. That was definitely not what she expected to see. She saw him flap the wings a few times before cracking his neck and rolling his shoulders. (What is he?) She thought as the wings made slowly calmed down. She was rather shocked when they strated rippling with color looking like saint elmos fire and bolts of lightning flying up and down and across them. He then looked at her with a grin.

'I'm part angel. That's where these wings came from and a few other things. Either way let's go. My flagship has just entered the atmosphere. Get on my back i'll take you both to it. Ben should already be in one of the medical bays. The other one is likely in the brig where he'll stay after he's healed.' He said as he gently picked up Charmcaster bridal style making sure her head was nestled into the crack of his arm before feeling the other young woman jump on his back. Taking off running he jumped and took off Gwen on his back holding tightly.

(This is crazy. This guy's part angel. I admit i've always thought they were a myth. I can't wait to tell Ben and confess to him. I hope he's alright after the beating this guy gave him. Kevin on the other hand. Honestly he had it coming. It was a dumb idea to attack somebody who was unarmed. Made me feel a little better seeing him in pain. I feel guilty about that though. I can't think about him anymore. He just really brings up painful memories.) She thought as they acsended higher and higher into the sky. She was a bit scared considering she could fall if she slipped and proceeded to wrap her legs around the mans waist. She was glad she was on his back. She looked over his shoulder at Chamcaster.

(She looks soo peaceful and there's a small smile on her face even though she's obviously still unconcious. Makes me wonder what's going on in her mind. There's still blood coming from her head though.) She thought.

'We're almost there she should be coming into sight as soon as we're through this cloud. He said as they acsended higher. He smiled it was good to fly again. (The young lady called Gwen has bruises but no real trauma. Now this other young woman is barely alive. Good thing the ship's close i can't fix brain trauma. There's no doubt she took one hell of a hit. Sadly agic doesn't heal the wounds delivered by the Devils Minion. We don't know why. All we can do is use modern medicine to heal her. Hopefully she wakes up. If not then that's another innocent unfortunate loss in this war.) Aaron thought as they finally broke though the clouds with the Jackle easily in sight considering it's size. His wings that flapped on occasion to keep them airborne seemed to soothe Gwen a little before she the ship. He laughed a little bit at her reaction.

Gwen saw the massive ship and the shear size of it left her speachless. If she didn't know better she'd think it was a floating continent. She pointed at the ship barely able to speak as they drew closer and closer to it. She held on tighter as he flew straight up it took a few minutes before they came above the deck. Gwen was even more shocked when she saw the amount of enourmous weapon systems on the ship. She had seen alot on the bottom and sides but this put them to shame.

(Oh. My. God.) She said earning a chuckle from the man she was flying on. (How can that thing even fly let alone exist?) She asked as they landed on its deck. Before she could jump off he had already punched in a bunch of numbers and they disappeared in a flash of green reappearing in one of the medical bays. Gwen let go as soon they reappeared. She was about to ask what was going on but noticed Ben in one of the beds. She was by his side in under a second gently picking up his hand seeing Ben as damaged as he was unnerved her. Him simply toying with Ben had left him in a bad state. She then noticed a very pale young woman with orange eyes and black hair across the room reading a magazine looking rather bored. She looked at her then at Aaron.

"Well i can tell you had fun. Did you have to hurt a human that bad. I don't think that black haired kid will be out of the hospital for a couple days. I understand why you simply toyed with this one but that deep sword cut across his chest and broken arm will take a few months to completely heal at least i was able to repair the head wound easily it was barely a cut. But that slice is something i can't repair that with my magic. You really shouldn't use that when other humans are around it makes them nearly impossible to heal with magic. Glad the swords already on board." The women said matter of factly.

'I know babe but i didn't know the creature was a human in disguise. If i had i wouldn't have gone down there. The scanners only differentiate between humans, aliens and animals. You know that. Either way i have to get this one to surgery before she bleeds out.' He said as she rolled her eyes as he took the young silver haired woman towards an operating room and looked at the Gwen with Ben.

"So what are your names?" Asked the woman. Noticing the wary look on the redheads face. It was obvious to her that what her mate did had an impact. She couldn't blame her. She'd seen for herself just what he'd do to that specific speacies of alien. Even if it was just a human in disguise. "I know he went easy on him but still could have been alot more gentle. I guess when he gets in that killer mode he just loses it. They're lucky he was able to stop that massive sword before it cleaved the kids head in half when he transformed back into a human. I don't know how but he did. I should try to ease her. When he comes back the young woman might just attack him in fear that he'll harm the young man again. He won't but she doesn't know that." She thought as she walked to them.

(Take one more step and you'll regret it.) said Gwen activating her mana to defend Ben. She was a bit unnerved when the woman smiled at her and saw a pair of fangs.

"Listen young one My name is Serana. I'm not here to harm either of you. Believe it or not i'm probably the least dangerous person on this ship at least to civilians. Aaron's the second least dangerous to civilians. I don't know about anyone else. I haven't met his family yet and the soldiers hate me. They like Aaron once did hate vampires. The only reason i'm still around and not a pile of Ash is because of him. You should shut off your spells. If you do attack me a group of Aarons super soldiers assigned to protect me will obliterate this entire room. Now please deactivate your spells. I don't want anymore innocents hurt. What is your name?"

Gwen felt the floor rumble and bounce when something came into the room. It had to bend down to get in. She looked at the armoured, well man that stood in the room shocked by his size. She saw some odd hoses connecting from his mouth behind his shoulders and into the armor. She saw the woman named Serana simply look back unfazed and mouthed the words SUPER SOLDIER to her. She saw a red dot on her chest as it took aim with one of it's weapon systems. She remembered how Serana had just said their was a whole group of them so she deactivated her spells and lowered her arms. The gigantic soldier lowered his weapon and turned around walking back out.

(Good god what is that thing? Super Soldier? No wonder they call it that. I doubt i could teleport fast enough before it killed me and Ben. Ugh i'll answer her questions. I guess since she hasn't tried to hurt us i can at least be a little civil.)

(My name is Gwendolyn Tennyson. The man in this bed is my cousin Ben Tennyson. Who you're man nearly killed.) Gwen said the last part angrily. Seeing Serana simply sigh she prepared for a possible lecture.

"Gwen you really can't judge Aaron or his actions since you don't know him. I know you're angry but he's a good person really. He just goes a bit crazy when that specific kind of alien comes across his path." She said seeing the young woman take her cousins hand as and her other hand ran through her cousins brown hair. She saw the way Gwen was looking at her cousin. It wasn't the love one simply had for their cousin. No it was alot more. "I remember that look in her eyes. It's the same look in Aaron's eyes whenever he looked at her. Everytime he looked at her like that her heart would somehow flutter. She didn't know how because she was undead but it did."

"Aaron's fiance and two month old son were murdered by those creatures." Serana said instantly getting the young Gwens attention. She saw the surprise and shock in her eyes.

(What? You mean the creature Ben became was the same as the race that did that?) Gwen asked. Seing Serana nod.

"And many other human attrocities. He's been fighting them for years now. Focused on vengence for his late fiance and child. You should ask him about it. It's the only... well one of the only reasons we came all this way from across the galaxy. I know you're love for you're cousin is so strong he could feel it even from there. By the way when your cousin wakes up you should tell him you're in love with him. If you don't you'll likely regret it." Serana spoke with a large grin on her face seeing Gwens blush.

(H...how did you know?) Gwen asked surprised. Getting a small chuckle from Serana. "Young one i've been around far far longer than you or most anyone has. So i know what i'm talking about. It's so easy to see espeacially with how you look at him. It's written all over your face." Serana smiled playfully. She may have been ancient and had seen many horrible things but her heart was soft and would stay that way.

Gwen looked over at her cousin and sighed. (I wish he felt the same way.) She sadly said.

"Gwen the only you'll know is if confess and you ask. Aaron was nervous as heck when he first told me he loved me. It was so cute to see him so nervous. Hehe i actually hit him with a grenade launcher the next day when he pulled a water grenade prank on me. Mainly because he scared me so bad and i thought that he actually didn't mean what he said. Anyway you should tell Ben how you feel when he wakes up before you lose him to another woman." Said Serana as Aaron wheeled Charmcaster back into the room on a bed. Gwen seeing this asked questions.

(So how's Hope doing? Is there any real damage or is it just minor?) Asked Gwen getting a surprised look from Aaron. He sighed and spoke.

'She's taken a significant amount of trauma to the skull and spine. Luckily it should heal in a week or two. Her head must have landed on something soft because she was knocked unconcious and wasn't dead and there were no cracks on her skull. Her vertebrae were cracked but a bit of one of Serana's potions applied to her spine was able to heal it. Normally it either would take awhile to heal or it wouldn't heal. She's still unconcious and will probably stay that way until she's fully healed. It'd be best anyway.' Aaron said seeing the young woman nod he sighed before wrapping his arms around Serana and playfully biting her. Which caused a small laugh to come from her.

(It's going to be dark in a few hours soo i'm just going to stay here with Ben.) Gwen thought as she slid into the bed with Ben and cuddled into his unconcious form. She was thankful he was still alive even if he'd been beaten badly and she almost died.

Serana grabbed Aaron before pushing him out of the room. Obviously confused she answered his unspoken question. "Let's leave them alone now. She needs time with him after all she almost lost him." Serana said getting a nod of understanding from him. She looked back into the room and saw Gwen give her a thankful smile which she smiled back. She was happy to see even if they were cousins Gwen loved him with everything she was. They'd check on them again tommorow.

Elsewhere on another planet.

It was the middle of the day as a young woman played with her young son in a flower shop. She had long blonde hair, pupiless sky blue eyes and a loud personality. She watched her son Inojin run around the flower shop. Now that he had grown a little she allowed him a bit more freedom but he was almost never out of her sight except when she went on a mission. She watched the little child run himself crazy. She sighed he needed his father but he just didn't come around anymore. She thought about how happy she had been when she first got together with Sai. They had dated even though the guy was very quiet. Being a former roots member would do that to you. She had married him later and then had his child and when she found out about the child she was soo happy. She thought Sai was to. He had been very nice but he was always standoffish but she didn't care. It was wonderful for awhile but sadly things didn't stay that way.

Ino remembered the day of Inojins birth it was painful but worth it. When she had held the baby she'd been happier and prouder than any day before. Sai had seemed to be happy too when he held him. For over a year things were great. She'd recovered and spent most of her time with Inojin when she wasn't on missions. She often took him out with her when they were shopping or with her friends. She remembered when they had gone out and they woundup running into Naruto as he trained while being watched by Hinata. She freaked when shuriken thrown from one of Naruto's clones at another one ricocheted off of it's kunai headed towards them. Before she could catch it or block her son the real Naruto got in front of them and caught the shuriken in his neck.

Ino had felt something wet spill onto her long purple dress and when she looked at where it came from she saw another splash of red land on her foot. Hinata's scream and subsequent faint made her look at Naruto who was on his knees trying to get the shuriken out of neck. They disappeared after he had dispelled the clones but she realized he had just used his own body to protect her and Inojin. She put Inojin with Hinata who was awake after a couple seconds. She then went to Naruto who was losing blood faster than him and the Kyubbi could replace it. Both arteries had been severed and she used her healing abilities to try to close at least one of the sliced arteries. She managed with the help of Kyubbi to stop the bleeding and close the wounds. As she cleaned the blood off of him and her, she smiled a little. She wasn't close with the blonde but she had noticed him. She rarely made time to be around him. Even when they went on a few missions together. They never really talked. At that very moment she regretted not spending more time with him and treating him badly when they were younger. She now wanted to be his friend. She thought it was strange that it took him having a near death experience in front of her for her to realize she wanted to really get to know him. She didn't feel anything speacial for him just like that he should have another friend. She remembered when he had opened his eyes and grinned at her. When she had asked him why he had done that he had answered simply.

"Children are far too precious to be harmed. I'd have done the same for anyone including you. Espeacially when we were younger. I had always considered you a friend even if you didn't. Oh and thanks for healing me and you're welcome by the way. I need to get back to training soo i hope Inojin is ok. Maybe i'll see you around. Take care Ino." Naruto had said back then. It had a profound affect on her and she made sure to make time to spend with him especially when things with Sai started going really down hill.

She remembered when she had come home about a month later from the flower shop with Inojin in her arms. She was always glad when she got off work. Spending time with her son and husband was what she always looked forward to. When she had got home Sai was there but he didn't greet her. Not even a nod of the head. Which was strange. He always had seemed to be the quiet one which was not unusual. When she had asked him if anything was wrong he shook his head and just asked for dinner. He seemed to barely notice his own son. As time went on Sai had become more and more distant. Ino tried everything to fix whatever was wrong even though she didn't know what it was. Even though he never said anything was wrong. When Sai refused to even acknoledge his son when he was spending time with him Ino was becoming more and more frustrated. She had talked to her friend and rival Sakura who's twin sister who also happened to be named Sakura was dating Sasuke. Trying to figure out where she was going wrong. She had even began crying when she had told Sakura how Sai ignored Inojin like he wasn't even there. Sakura had no answers for her unfortunately. She had tried spending as much time with Sai as she could along with Inojin but it never helped. Sai had then started sleeping in a seperate bed which had broken her heart even more. Eventually Sai just up and left and hadn't been back since then. She cried and cried trying to figure out what had gone wrong when she received signed divorce papers. She had sought comfort a shoulder to cry on. Sakura was there for her as were her other friends. Naruto was there too. Sometimes he'd find her training when she had left Inojin with Sakura for a bit so she could train.

Naruto had found her and helped her take out her frustration by sparring with her. He had avoided or blocked most of her attacks but let her get in a few blows. When she had exausted herself she had collapsed onto his shoulder and began sobbing. Even if she didn't want to, the pain of losing Sai had really taken a toll on her but she stayed strong around her son. Naruto along with her other friends had been trully supportive and had taken time out of their schedules to be beside her. She was grateful. But it still hurt. When she was with Naruto though he always did something to try to make cheer up or laugh. Even going so far as wrapping his arms around her and wiping her tears when she sobbed. He was the only one who she let hold her like that since Sai had left. He knew pain better than anyone after all and was kinder than anyone around even after the village had treated and still treated him like garbage. They had eventually become very very close friends like she was with Sakura. Slowly the pain lessened and Naruto would come by and spend time with Inojin to. She appreciated it and always smiled and laughed when she watched Inojin play with Naruto. He was soo good with kids and it left Inojin with someone to really look up to when he got older. He'd ride on Naruto's back sometimes. Which made her snicker when Inojin said move faster. As Inojin grew he noticed more and and more how he never saw his father around. He asked his mother before and it always made her eyes water. She knew he hadn't done it on purpose but the thought of Sai hurt terribly even if the pain was getting a little better.

Ino remembered all the times when Inojin would bring his father up and it often left her in tears when she put him to bed. She couldn't count the number of times Naruto had comforted her when he was there. Too many to count. She smiled at the fact that even though the war had changed him a bit he was still the same kind sweet goofball she knew when she was younger. It had been over two and a half years since the divorce and it was only in the last couple months that she had realized she had fallen for Naruto. At first she was surprised but after a bit she realized why. Naruto was pretty much the perfect guy. Sweet, loving, great sense of humor, spontaneus like her, was always kind and was loyal, he even had control over Kyubbi for the most part. Naruto was also very good with children and she had no doubt he wanted some of his own some day. That was any womans dream man. A man who loved and wanted children. Of course she thought she only had competition with Hinata and Sakura. She had noticed how even with his busy schedule he always made time to spend with all his friends especially the female ones and some of their children even Kurenai's daughter and Hinata who always blushed the entire time. She learned of Kurenais and some of the other womens feelings later. Even the feelings of a foul mouthed former sound four member who was recently resurrected named Tayuya. She was genuinly surprised that a member of the sound four had feelings for Naruto. Apparently she'd felt that way since she first met him. But died before she could act on those feelings.

Now the idea of all the women willing to not only confess but also share him was something that needed getting used to. Besides Naruto was a one woman kind of guy. She had no idea what his reaction would be to soo many women confessing and the two very recent editions of a resurrected Kushina and Mikoto. She hoped Kushina could get him to love her as a mother and lover. It confused Ino but apparently she was ready for both. She was now preparing herself to go and see him. She had never been more nervous in her life. Not even about the pain of giving birth made her this nervous. What made her soo nervous was she feared rejection. It was what all the women feared. Of course lately she had gotten a bad feeling and it didn't have anything to do with Naruto. All of the women felt it. Ino hoped whatever it was bypassed them all. But she didn't focus on that. She finally gathered all her nerves.

Ino picked up inoji who was signifigantly heavier now but put him down since he wanted to walk. She smiled at that. "He's so sweet he obviously inherited my personality and eyes. Though got the black hair of his father. But it's not time to think about him. I'm a single mother now and i have my eyes on a special man. I hope Inojin will approve if he says yes. Now if i know Naruto he's probably at Ichirukas ramen or spending time with Anko and whoever she dragged along to the dango stand. I'll drop Inojin off at my parents house mom should be home by now. He'll enjoy being with them he always does. We should get going it'll be dark in a few hours." Ino thought as they headed out.

"Hey Inojin would you like to go see your grandparents today?" Ino asked the little one. Getting an excited nod from him she smiled. "Ok young one let's go." She said with a sweet smile. This little detour would give much needed time to get her nervousness under control.

Naruto was currently at the nerby Dango stand with Anko, Kurenai, Yugao and Kakashi. Anko was currently watching out for a certain person with blonde hair as her and Naruto were discussing his love life or really her questioning him about some girls and embarressing him with certain details much to the amusement of Kakashi, Yugao and Kurenai. But Kurenai a bit more. Her daughter was around somewhere with her own friends. She was laughing though at the times Naruto would lower his head in total embarressment. Kakashi was grinninng behind his mask. Seeing his student being embarressed by Anko never got old. He was glad to see somebody else besides Hinata had taken such a shine to the young man though would have never expected it to be Anko of all people. He and Yugao looked at Kurenai smirking a bit both of them had learned of her love for Naruto. It was only thanks to Naruto being around Anko that she had finally learned about him and had subsequently fallen for him after a long while.

(Naruto what about Hokage-same Tsunade. I've seen you admiring certain parts of her. Are you sure you haven't been having dreams about her?) Asked Anko playfully.

Naruto had turned beet red. 'I have not had any kind of dreams like that. What do you think i am a pervert?... don't answer that.' Naruto said trying to hide the massive blush as the others laughed at his plight. He disliked discussing such things but Anko loved teasing him about it. It was her playful nature when she wasn't being blunt and straight to the point.

(Oh really? Judging from the times when i watched you sleep i have heard you say out loud for Tsunade-sama and a few other females in different dreams to put their clothes back on before you get caught with a blush and dirty grin.) Anko laughed at him when he lowered his head trying to disappear. 'I have not Anko-chan. Why have you been watching me sleep anyway?' Naruto stated curiously but not realizing he had just admitted about the dreams.

(You just admitted to it.) Anko said grinning triumphantly. (Also you talk in your sleep and i always find what you say in your dreams to be rather entertaining. Espeacially when It's about a certain female black haired Jonin.) Anko bluntly said getting a knowing look from Yugao who she had told all about it. She had also told Kurenai of a few of his dreams and her one night with Naruto and laughed when Kurenai had passed out a few times from blood loss from nose bleeds from the different stories. She didn't tell Kakashi or any other male. Who knew how they would react.

(Perverts. Of course so am i but they're alot worse hehe.) Thought Anko. 'Oh really Anko-chan? If i remember correctly a certain someone was yelling out my name and had wished i was her first. I'm sure you remember who it is. It was y...' Before Naruto could finish his sentance Anko covered his mouth with her hand blushing bright red. She looked around seeing knowing smirks on Yugao and Kurenai's faces and Kakashies' visible eye widening. (Damnit why did Kakashi have to be here. No doubt he's already figured it out now. He most likely will want to know everything. Heh he'll get nothing from me. Need to make sure Naruto doesn't reveal anything too.) Anko thought to herself.

{Ok now i'm curious. Just who might this person be and what happened between you two?} asked Kakashi noticing how Anko had turned bright red which was a very very rare sight. He looked expectantly at Naruto. He had a feeling where this was going.

Naruto was silent at first but soon the feeling of needing to embarress Anko overwhelmed his desire for privacy. Of course before he could say anything he felt a rather sharp kunai against his groin and Anko whispering in his ear. (Don't you dare say anything Naruto-kun. If you do i'll make sure your manhood disappears.) She whispered getting a nod and shiver from Naruto. She smirked seeing his eyes widen in fear. It was the one weakness of any man. She'd use this tactic before when interrogating enemies for information. Sometimes they wouldn't crack until she woundeup removing part of their manhood. Sometimes she'd just do it for fun though. Of course she won't actually remove Naruto's but she'll make sure he believes she will. Anko pushed the Kunai a little harder into his groin to prove her point before removing it. Getting looks from Kurenai, Yugao and Kakashi.

'It was nothing Kakashi-sensei. Just some girl from one of the other villages i don't remember her name.' Said Naruto nervously. He knew Kakashi probably saw through his lie but he wasn't willing to risk Anko cutting off his genitals by telling the truth.

Kakashi smirked judging from the two's actions he already guessed what had happened between Naruto and the Woman who considered him to be a little brother. But judging by the way Naruto's eyes widened in fear he knew Anko was threatening him. He knew of Anko's wrath since he had almost been on the receiving end of it before. {I think i have ideas about maybe writing an icha icha paradise book myself.} Thought Kakashi before he received a glare from Anko signalling an imminent and very painful death if he said a word. He instantly put up his hands in surrender causing her to smirk and a kunai imbedded itself into the chair half an inch from his groin. He shuddered as he saw a psychotic smile on Anko's face. It unnerved anyone who saw it. He was about to bolt when a young blonde woman he recognized as Ino Yamanaka walked in. All the women looked at her then at Naruto smirking. {What is going on here? They're all acting odd. Even Anko and she tends to act crazy espeacially when it comes to dango. But now she's not even paying attention to it. Hmm Ino's looking at them with a certain look in her eyes as are they looking at her with smirks i wonder wh...} Before Kakashi could finish his thought Anko kissed Naruto on his cheek and she, Kurenai and Yugao yanked Kakashi out of his chair and they left the restuarant dragging Kakashi away. Of course when he started to ask all they said was that Ino and Naruto needed time to be alone.

Naruto watched the women drag a confused Kakashi away no doubt to him space and to prevent Kakashi from finding out anymore about his and Anko's love life. He then turned and looked at Ino in her long purple dress with purple top exposing a small part of her stomach and her long hair up and her eyes looking at him shyly. If he didn't know any better he'd think she was Hinata in a different form.

'Hey Ino how're you doing? Oh where's Inojin he's normally with you most of the time. Please sit if you like.' Naruto said pulling a chair out for her which she sat in soon after. He smiled at her obviously wondering what she was here for. Espeacially since Anko and the others dragged Kakashi away soon after she arrived.

Ino looked away shyly. She was never shy even when she had her first. The only other times she was nervous was when she was going on a mission and when she went into labor. But now with Naruto the nerves she had managed to calm on her way came back full force. She looked into his eyes she could see all his emotions in them and his soul. It was soo... comforting for her. "Ok i can do this. I just need to calm down. Maybe if we take a walk or go get some ramen i can work up the last bit of nerve. I'm just glad he's sweet and that other than now i've always been comfortable in his presence." Thought Ino as she stared into his eyes. She wanted to kiss him but now was not the time. He didn't even know how she felt. If she did he might just bolt.

"Hey Naruto how about we go take a walk and head over to ichiruka's ramen? There's a few things i need to to talk to you about and well i've kindof missed you." She said before she stood and wrapped her arms around his neck holding him close. She smiled when she felt his arms wrap back around her. She really felt comfortable here and happy again she only hoped it would last.

'Ramen oh yeah definitely. I know she's got something to tell me to. I just hope it's not about Sai or something. Seriously though i wonder if Ichirukas has any new ramen flavors?' Thought Naruto as he nodded seeing the sweet smile on her face as they left once he payed for the dango. They didn't notice though that a certain psycho namely Anko was watching the entire exchange and followed them as they left. (I have no idea how things are going to turn out. Hopefully he'll except them all for now let's see how Ino does. The whole thing should be entertaining and i'll be there to knock some sense into Naruto if he well idk, if he does something stupid i guess.) Thought Anko as she followed the two rolling her eyes as she saw them heading to get Ramen. She wondered why he loved it so much. It wasn't all that good at least to her.

"So Naruto how're things going with your training and missions? I hear you havn't been on that many recently. Mostly D and C ranked." Ino asked not really knowing how she should get the conversation going. She hoped she didn't just hit a sore spot.

'Well Ino-chan things are going well with training and stuff. Kyubbi's been teasing me about women and as for the D and C ranked missions well i kind of got into some trouble when i broke Sasuke's nose when he decided to try to prove his strength again. He had it coming. Arrogant prick always thinks he's better than everyone else. So what if he got Sakura. If she wants trash let her have it.' Naruto said annoying himself with the thought of Sasuke's arrogance. Those thoughts left when Ino carressed his hand by accident or so he thought. It sent an odd chill up his spine.

"Sorry Naruto guess i'm walking too close." She said metally smacking herself at how dumb that sounded. She noticed the irritated look on his face then she saw him mouth out the words Shut up Kyubbi.She couldn't help but grin as well as grinning about how he didn't know that Sakura had a twin sister. "So Naruto what did Kyubbi just say?" She asked amused.

'Huh? Oh Kyubbi was just teasing me saying how she's apparently got competition for my affections. She's so strange sometimes.. well no all the time.' He said wincing when Kyubbi yelled at him. I am not weird kit! I might just bite off your dick when i get out for that comment. Yelled Kyubbi at her container. "And that she might bite off my manhood when she gets out if i say another comment like that." Said Naruto getting a surprised but amused look from Ino. She had no idea the Kyubbi was female or that she could get that pissed at him. She snickered at him getting a small glare from him.

"While i'm surprised she's female i am i not surprised that the Kyubbi has feelings for him. With how sweet, kind, loyal and loving he is it's no surprise even a demon could fall for him. More competition but it's fine this could be advantageous for him. I'm a little jealous that she's so close to him though. Closer than i am to him." Ino thought as they got to Ichirukas. Where Ayame was busy cooking and serving while her father had decided to nap for a bit. She grinned inwardly as he pulled out a chair for her and sat himself down. Ayame came over to them.

Ayame inwardly smirked she could easily guess why Ino was here this time. She and Naruto were either on a date or she had suggested this place for a more private moment so she could tell him something.

-Hey Naruto haven't seen you in awhile. We missed out best customer. So what would you two like to eat?- Asked Ayame trying not to laugh when he ordered five bowls for himself and Ino ordered a small one. She gave Ino a knowing wink before she put their order in and listened to the two talk about old times and how they both now thought Sasuke was an asshole. She laughed inwardly she was almost tempted to subtly ask if Ino was with him for a free meal but she knew she wasn't. The young woman wasn't like that. If anything she was about to tell Naruto something speacial.

"I can't beleive i was so infatuated with Sasuke all those years ago. It's funny to see how Sasuke still thinks he's better than everyone else. I'm surprised his ego hasn't yet grown to the size of all Konoha." Said Ino laughing a little at the fact that No matter how many times someone put Sasuke in his place his arrogance always stayed the same. It seemed to prove just how much of a moron he is.

'I know what you mean Ino. He has never gotten over himself. Thinks he should get anything he wants and all the power he wants. Funny how he's still the same stuckup Uchiha prick he's always been. I do still wonder why Itachi never killed him in the massacre. Shame he killed his mother though. I kinda remember her but not much more than she was nice. Wish i knew what my mother looked like and was like. Anyway.' Said Naruto before devouring the bowls of ramen while Ino simply ate her small one shaking her head in amazement at how fast he could eat. She'd seen his eating habits before but it still amazed her how he could not only stuff it down so fast but also how no matter how much he ate he never got fat.

Naruto finished all five bowls before Ino ate half of hers. She finished hers quickly though as she wanted to get straight to the point. She had to speak before her nerves got to her again.

"Naruto there's something i need to tell you. I don't know how you'll feel about it." Said Ino sensing Ayame her father and Anko watching them. She lay her hand on his causing him to look at her oddly and her to almost blush but she managed to keep it away. He was curious of what she had to say.

"Since we've been spending time together these last few years we've become friends and i appreciate all the times you've been there for me and Inojin. I'm glad that we're really close friends. But there's something else now." She sighed as she thought "Here goes."

"Naruto i've fallen in love with you. I didn't expect it to happen it just did. You've managed to fill a void in my heart that i was positive no one else could ever fill. I'm not asking anything from you i just needed to let you know how i felt. I would like to have at least a chance for their to be an us. Ugh i'm screwing this up. I just want a chance for a relationship that i hope will last hopefully forever. I'm not willing to give anyone else this chance. I don't feel anything but friendship for everyone else. I know that you might be worried that my feelings for Sai might get in the way. They won't, even though they still hurt i've moved on and the only one who i want to give a chance to is you. I know this is unexpected but i needed to let you know or i would likely winde up regretting not telling you." Said Ino a tear slowly falling down her cheek. She felt him tenseup but then felt his hand close around hers. She looked at him wondering what he was thinking when he turned and looked at her.

'Ino-chan' He said looking softly at her. Causing their eyes to lock. 'I never really realized how beautiful she was. I don't know if i should give her a chance though. I don't want to be a rebound guy or for this to be a fling. Is she trully ready or does she only think she is. Sadly there's only one way to find out, even if it means i could possibly get hurt in the end.' He thought as he stared into her eyes. Noticing a high degree of worry in them. He sighed.

'Ino-chan are you sure about this? Are you sure these feelings are true and that you're ready? I don't want you, Inojin or me to get hurt if it turns out that they were just a simple crush or fleeting feelings espeacially if Inojin gets attached to me.' He said getting an understanding look from the young woman.

"Naruto-kun i'm sure of what i feel. My love for you is genuine. I haven't felt this way in a long time. I know you're worried that it might not work as am i but the only way to know is if we give it a chance. I know Inojin looks up to you like a father figure and he'd be excited if you were with us." Said Ino her hands moving to the sides of his face putting her head against him not breaking eye contact. "I'm ready Naruto i don't have any doubts about my feelings even if you may not feel the same.' She said seeing how warry Naruto was. To prove her point she pushed her lips against his in a long and gentle kiss. She felt him tense but soon relax before he returned the manuever and his arms gently wrap around her waist and she felt a chill go up her spine and lightning shoot through her body. She'd never felt that before. She smiled into the kiss. "I hope this will help prove how i really feel to him. I can only hope. He's kissing me back though so it's a start." thought Ino as the need for air broke them apart. Both breathing heavily.

'You're sure about this Ino-chan?' Naruto asked and getting a small nod from her a seeing a romantic type of love in her eyes. Something he hadn't seen in anyone but Hinata's eyes. He smiled a bit before he grabbed her chin and this time kissed her first. Feeling her arms wrapping around his neck and seeing her eyes closed with a blissful smile as they kissed. It soon turned a bit more passionate as their tongues slid into each others mouths before they broke apart hearing snickering and a couple people cheering.

Naruto and Ino both looked up at Anko who was snickering and smiled at them. They looked around and saw Choji and Shikamaru who had been looking to hangout with Ino along with Ayame and her father cheering. Ino looked at them, then at Naruto seeing the surprised look on his face. She smiled before locking eyes with him again. She grinned.

"Anko-san knew all along. That's why she and the others dragged Kakashi away. So i could finally confess and have at least a little privacy." She said before taking his hand and lead him away while Anko watched her brother walk away with Ino. She would definitely be good for him. Anko sighed and hoped she'd be lucky enough to have that as well one day.

Naruto surprised Ino when he entwined his fingers with her as they walked along causing her to look up at him and smile. She hadn't been this happy in a long time. "I hope this works out for us. It's so hard to lose someone for any reason but i just hope i don't lose Naruto too. I'm glad he's giving this new relationship a chance.' Thought Ino as after about half an hour when it was around ten at night. She was happy and got ready to offer him a better place than that shitty little apartment to live in as they arrived at her home.

"Soo Naruto i'm beat but would you like to come inside? I mean to sleep i know you're tired too." She asked confidently. Hopeing he'd say yes she had had enough of sleeping alone no doubt he wanted to sleep beside someone too after all those years alone. She smiled when he nodded and they walked inside.

'Nice place you have Ino-chan. So what happens now? I mean where am i supposed to sleep?' He said causing her to smile at him. She was glad he didn't instantly want to screw her like alot of other guys probably would.

"Well Naruto i have two beds but ones for Inojin and is too small for an adult. Which leaves mine which is only a couple of days old. You can join me if you want." Ino said watching his reaction giggling at his extreme blush at how she would allow him to sleep beside her.

'Really?' He asked seeing her nod he went into another room and proceeded to change as did she. He went back in and joined her on the bed giving her plenty of space in case she didn't want to come too close to him. He was very surprised when she turned over and lay ontop of him with her head on his chest where she proceeded to fall asleep listening to his heartbeat. Naruto sighed before wrapping his arms around her and slowly falling asleep himself. 'This is nice.' He thought before falling asleep.
