Hello all Storm here with a new story! Yes I know another new story, but I've said it before when I get a new story idea I can't help but want to do it. This is another Naruto/DxD story with a rather rare pairing that I doubt has been many times, or at all, before. This also takes place later in the series and will contain a lot of bashing on Issei, if any of you don't like that... well to bad it's happening. So, without further ado.
I own nothing
She was an angel.
That was the first thing he thought when he saw her walk down the hall of Kuoh Academy.
When his mother first told him that he would be attending school he had been against it vehemently, since he had no desire to waste his time by attending some Academy when he could be out training or creating new attacks. But she had been insistent that he attend Kuoh Academy for whatever reason; if there's one thing he knew for sure, his mother never did anything without a reason, even if she could be naïve at times.
His first day there left a lot to be desired, he just couldn't find it in himself to really care about classes or the other students. In fact, he wasn't that impressed by the other students, especially those three idiots that were called "The Perverted Trio". While he can appreciate the female figure, what he's heard about these three sounds like three predators in the making; peeping on girls, openly talking about watching porn, and, from what he's heard, the only reason they enrolled in Kuoh Academy was because of it originally being a girls-only school.
Yeah safe to say he wasn't looking forward to ever seeing these three and will avoid being in their general area if he can help it.
Honestly, he had been tempted to just skip the rest of year, he's already been taught everything he needed to know that's taught in the Academy. The only reason he even showed up the next day was because something told him he should go, and he's never been one to doubt his instincts.
If they say somethings going to happen, then it's probably something good.
Now he is thanking all his lucky stars that he showed up today and got to see this angel.
She was beautiful, more so than any woman he's seen before, and he's met several. There was just something about her that drew him in; he didn't know what, only that everything about her was beautiful beyond comparison.
Her long chestnut hair tied into twin tails, her bright violet eyes that shined with purity and innocence, her smile that could light up the darkest room.
"…use me… excuse me…. Hello." Said a female voice, snapping him out of his thoughts.
"Huh?" He said, blinking when he saw the beautiful girl standing in front of him.
"I'm so sorry, my mind was somewhere else at the moment. What were you saying?" He asked, causing the girl to smile and wave it off.
"Don't worry it's fine. And I was asking if you could move a little, you're standing in front of my locker." The girl said with her voice being just as soft and beautiful as the rest of her.
"Oh, right sorry." He said as he proceeded to move out of the way.
"It's fine, really." The girl said, as she gave him another smile.
'Kami, is everything about her beautiful?' He wondered, as he stood there watching her put her stuff in her locker while trying to think of something to say.
"So, uh, are you new to Kuoh?" He asked, wondering if she was a new student as well, given that he was sure that he would have remembered seeing her before.
"Yeah, I am actually. Well, technically I lived here when I was younger, but my family and I moved to England because my father's job required him to move. But now I'm back and it's great being in Japan again. What about you?" She asked as she turned to look at him.
"Me? I just moved here recently with my mom, but her… job, I guess you could say, keeps her away for long periods of time so it's mostly just me." He answered, causing the girl to frown at his words.
"That must get lonely." She stated, while getting a shrug in response.
"Eh, not really. I've gotten used to being on my own, plus I've always found ways to occupy my time. By the way I'm Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto said as he introduced himself, while holding out his hand to her.
"It's nice to meet you Naruto. I'm Irina Shidou!" Irina replied with a bright smile, as she shook Naruto's hand while looking him over.
He had jet black hair that spiked out in all directions, lightly tanned skin, blue colored eyes, and oddly enough three whisker-like marks on each cheek reminding her of a fox. He also wore the standard Kuoh Academy boys' uniform, though it did nothing to hide the rippling muscles that he had underneath it. Irina also noted that he had what looked like a fur belt wrapped around his waist, though it was partially hidden by his jacket.
Irina would have thought that he might actually be a Yōkai given the whisker marks, but she didn't sense anything strange about him nor any magic within him, showing that he's a hundred percent human.
"You too Irina." Said Naruto, while smiling at chestnut-haired girl.
'Maybe going here won't be so bad after all.' Naruto thought, as he walked beside Irina once she closed her locker.
*Later*
"Irina, hey!" Naruto said, while waving at the reincarnated angel.
"Oh, hello there, Naruto. What're you still doing here, I'd thought you'd be going home by now?" Irina asked, while tilting her head cutely.
"I was, but I decided to wait for you. You know, since you're technically my only friend here." Naruto said, causing Irina to look at him in surprise.
"Friend?" Irina asked.
"Uh yeah. Are we not? I mean if we aren't that's fine, I just thought since we talked and all that made us friends. But if you don't want to be, that's fine and…"
"No, no, no. It's not that, I'm just surprised is all. But yeah, we're friends." Irina said, while smiling happily at her newly made friend.
It'd be nice having a friend that wasn't aware of the supernatural and was a normal person.
"Cool. So, were you heading home?" Naruto asked.
"Actually, I was going to go meet up with some other friends. I'd invite you to come along, but they're all part of a club and it's kind of private so…" Irina said as she trailed off, given that she's meeting with the Occult Research Club, or ORC for short, who were all Devils.
"That's fine. Though would you like to hang out tomorrow?" Naruto asked hopefully.
"Sure! That'd be great. See you later, Naruto!" Said Irina, before waving goodbye to him as she ran off towards the ORC clubhouse.
"See you… Irina." Naruto said, while returning the wave.
*Timeskip-One Week*
The week following his meeting with Irina has been… nice, Naruto would say.
He's hung out more with Irina, learning more about her along with telling her more about himself, minus anything that may cause her to freak out.
Irina proved to be a cheerful, carefree, upbeat, and enthusiastic person. He also learned that she was very devoted to her religion, and while Naruto wasn't very religious himself, he could respect it for Irina. Irina was also kind, caring, and protective of her loved ones, all things Naruto admired.
For him, there wasn't much to tell her besides that he enjoyed training and fighting strong opponents.
One thing that did concern Naruto was one day when he walked Irina to her home, only to find out that she was staying with several other students at the Hyoudou Residence, where one-third of the "Perverted Trio" lives, Issei Hyoudou. It concerned Naruto even more when he found out several female students, all members of the ORC, were living with him.
All of those girls were living with a known pervert, one whose dream is to become a "Harem King"; yeah, that definitely warranted Naruto's concerns.
The only reason he hasn't said anything about it yet was because Irina told him that Issei was her childhood friend, so he kept quiet on the matter… for now. But if Naruto ever finds out Issei is doing anything to the girls living there, especially Irina, he'll rip him apart piece by bloody piece before turning him into a pile of ash.
Naruto's suspicions only rose when he sensed something in Issei's left arm, something powerful, though nowhere near as powerful as him or his mom, but still something to get his attention. The kid himself though wasn't anything impressive, barely possessing enough power to match a child's.
It's actually kind of sad, that something so powerful was being wasted on someone so pathetic.
Currently though, Naruto wasn't thinking about any of that, right now he was standing at the gate to the Academy, waiting for Irina wanting to ask her something.
"Hey Naruto!" Irina shouted, as she ran up to him and giving him a hug, to which Naruto happily returned.
"Irina hey. How are you?" Naruto asked.
"Pretty good. It's great being back here and everyone has been so nice!" Irina answered, while smiling brightly at her friend.
"That's great. But, uh, listen, I actually wanted to ask you something." Naruto said, as he scratched the back of his head nervously.
"Sure, what is it?" Irina asked, as she wondered what her friend wanted to ask as her.
"Well I was just wondering… if perhaps maybe you'd want to… go out to a movie or have dinner, maybe?" Naruto asked nervously, while looking anywhere but at Irina.
This was his first time asking a girl out and he was understandably nervous about it, especially given that he really likes Irina. He was also hesitant to even ask her, since he was worried that she'd say no and not want to be friends anymore; but after some time, he worked up the courage to ask her, not wanting to think about "what ifs".
"Like a… date?" Irina asked, surprised at the question.
"Yeah, like a date. That is, if you want it to be a date." Naruto said, as he nervously scratched the back of his head.
"Oh." That was all Irina could say at the moment.
She was really surprised that Naruto was asking her out and wasn't sure how to respond. On one hand, she'll admit that Naruto is very attractive and a great person; but on the other hand. she already likes Issei, lives with him, and he already knows about her being an Angel. Plus, she doesn't really want to get Naruto involved in the troubles of the Three Factions, not to mention he's still only human and if he gets hurt or worse in the crossfire, she'd never be able to forgive herself.
'Then again, maybe he has a Sacred Gear or is even the descendant of a Legendary Hero; if so, then he could join an Angels Brave Saints like me, maybe even Lord Michaels! And even if he can't become an Angel, then maybe I can convince Rias to make him a member of her Peerage or see if she knows anyone that would accept him as a member! Then I won't have to worry about him getting hurt or killed!' Irina thought in excitement.
While Irina does likes having a friend that has nothing to do with the supernatural, she'd rather have him become an Angel or a Devil, than see him get hurt because of her.
"Uh, Irina?" Naruto asked, worried that she was going to say no.
"What? Oh sorry, I spaced out for moment. As for your question, yeah I'd like that." Irina said, as she smiled brightly at him.
While she may like Issei, she didn't see the harm in going out with Naruto. If it doesn't work out, then hopefully they can still be friends and if it does work out, then… well then, she can say she's dating a great guy.
"Really? That, that's great!" Naruto said, relieved and excited that she said yes.
"So, what did you have in mind?" Irina asked, as she looked at him curiously.
"Well like I said, if you want to go see a movie or get dinner, I'm fine either way. Or, is there something else you'd want to do?" Naruto asked as he looked at Irina, who hummed in thought.
"How about the arcade and then getting something to eat?" Irina replied, as her tomboy side came out.
"Sounds great. Come on." Naruto said, while smiling widely at his date.
*Later*
"Ahahahahaha! I still can't believe you got us kicked out!" Irina said in between laughter, while Naruto scratched his head sheepishly.
"Uh yeah, sorry about that." Naruto said, with a sheepish grin.
Once they had gotten to the arcade, they both started playing different games seeing who could win the most tickets. Unfortunately, Irina vastly underestimated Naruto's luck, seeing him break the high score on every game he played and emptying nearly every machine of tickets. It both amazed Irina and gave her the impression that if he did have a Sacred Gear, it gave him an ungodly amount of good luck.
It got to the point where the manager showed up and kicked them both out; though, thankfully not before they could cash in their tickets for prizes.
"Don't worry about being that was awesome!" Said Irina with a large smile on her face, while holding the hug stuffed fox Naruto had won for her.
After leaving the arcade, they had headed on over to a nice café for dinner. Now, Naruto was walking her back home and Irina could say it had been a really great and fun night, more than she thought it would be.
"As long as you had fun." Naruto stated, just happy that Irina was happy.
"I did! Thank you, Naruto, this was really great, and we should do it again sometime." Said Irina as they reached the Hyoudou Residence.
"So, is that a yes to a second date?" Naruto asked, hoping that it was.
"Definitely. Well good night." Irina said, as she opened the front gate.
"Night. See you tomorrow." Naruto said, as he made sure she got inside safely.
Irina walked up to the door but stopped before she opened it. Thinking to herself for a few moments Irina made a split-second decision.
She then proceeded to run back down the steps to Naruto, who looked at her in confusion.
"Did you forget something?" Naruto asked, while Irina smiled at him.
"Just this." Irina said.
Then to Naruto's surprised, she leaned forward and kissed his cheek.
"See you, Naruto-kun." Irina said, before quickly running inside to hide her blushing face.
Naruto stood there in shock for a few moments, before he gained a big smile.
"You too Irina-chan, you too." Muttered Naruto, before turning away from the large manor to head home.
However, he stopped when he felt someone looking at him. Turning to the Hyoudou Residence, he saw someone looking at him from the second floor, or more specifically glaring at him.
'The pervert.' Naruto thought with a frown as he saw it was Issei Hyoudou glaring at him.
The punk didn't even look away when he saw Naruto looking at him.
'He's either brave or stupid, my money's on the latter.' Thought Naruto.
The last time someone glared at him like that, they got to experience having their spine ripped out through their mouth. If there's one thing Naruto hated, it was jumped up brats thinking that they were better than him.
The only reason he didn't just blasted the punk was because he was still Irina's friend.
'Whatever, it's not like he'd be stupid enough to actually try something against me.' Naruto thought, as he gave Issei a dismissive look before he turned around and head home.
*Timeskip-Two Weeks*
The past two weeks have been great for both Naruto and Irina. They had gone on several more dates following their first one, with the both of them really enjoying spending time together when it's just the two of them. Naruto had even brought Irina to his home on occasion, thankfully his mother wasn't there as he wasn't sure he's ready to explain the more personal side of his life to Irina.
Though they haven't done anything physical yet, with the most they did being holding hands and kisses on the cheek. The reason being that Irina was worried about "falling" and was still rather shy about the physical side of her relationship. Unfortunately, or fortunately, her worry about "falling" had been thrown out the window when she saw Naruto performing his daily training in his backyard, without a shirt on.
Irina hadn't even been aware that she was staring as she watched him exercise, his muscles becoming more define with his movements, sweat rolling down his body. She'd only snapped out of it when he put a shirt back on, but by then it was too late.
Since then, she's been having "Impure thoughts" about her and Naruto, even sometimes seeing her wings flicker between white and black, along with them no longer looking as pure as they used to. So, she's worked to limit the physical contact between her and Naruto, while also making sure it didn't look like she was pulling away from him.
But aside from that, she's rather happy being with Naruto, she hasn't told any of her friends yet though as she first wanted to tell Naruto about the supernatural, whenever she found the courage to tell him and hope he doesn't freak out over it.
'I still haven't figured out if he has a Sacred Gear or any magic in him.' Irina thought, as she sat in her room in the Hyoudou Residence.
Irina was then pulled from her thoughts when she heard her door being opened, and to her surprise, she saw Issei standing there.
"Issei? What're you doing in here?" Irina asked, while looking at her childhood friend in confusion, and a little worry, at the uncharacteristically blank expression on his face.
"Who's that black-haired bastard you've been spending time with?" Questioned Issei, causing Irina to frown at the insult towards her… boyfriend, she guessed as they were technically a couple given the number of dates they've gone on.
"His name is Naruto Uzumaki and he's my boyfriend." Irina answered, as she got off her bed, while Issei clenched his fists.
"No, he isn't! And I don't want you seeing him anymore!" Issei shouted, causing Irina to look at him in disbelief and anger.
"Excuse you?! And who are you to say who I can and can't see?!" Irina demanded, unable to believe that he'd dare say Naruto wasn't her boyfriend and that she couldn't see him/
They might be friends, but he had no say in who she spent her time with or if she chose to date someone.
"I'm your real boyfriend that's who I am!" Issei retorted while glaring at her, much to Irina's shock at his declaration and that he was looking at her like that.
Since first finding out that her friend had become a Devil, Irina looked at him like he was a complete stranger.
"No, you aren't. Naruto-kun is my boyfriend and I'm happy with him, and if you were really my friend, you'd happy for me." Irina said, while frowning at him.
Issei just glared at her and growled in anger, as what happened next both shocked and hurt Irina.
*SMACK*
"You'll do what I said because you belong to me and only me! Not some pretty boy bastard!" Issei shouted while glaring at Irina, as the reincarnated angel could only look at him in shock and hurt as she held a hand up to her stinging cheek.
"You… you hit me." Said Irina in disbelief as tears filled her eyes.
"And I'll do it again if you think you can disobey me." Issei said, before walking out the room and slamming the door behind him, causing Irina to flinch.
'He, he actually hit me. And said I belonged to him.' Irina thought as tears streamed down her face.
She just couldn't believe Issei, someone she's known since they children, would hit her and say she belonged to him. He sounded like… like… like…
"Like a Devil." Irina said.
Sniffling, Irina ran to her closet and began pulling out all her stuff and packing it away.
She couldn't stay here, not after what just happened; not after that Devil, she couldn't think of him as her friend, hit her and said that she belonged to him, along with telling her that she couldn't see Naruto again.
'I'm so stupid! I can't believe I let myself be fooled into thinking he's still the same Issei, he's not; or maybe, he was always been like this and I was just to blind to see it. Please Lord Michael forgive my foolishness.' Irina thought, as she mentally prayed to her King.
Once she finished packing, Irina opened her window and released her wings to fly out, not wanting to risk seeing Issei again or the others, since she didn't want to explain why she was leaving to them.
Flying across Kuoh, Irina soon arrived at her destination, Naruto's house. Running up to the front door, Irina knocked on it, hoping Naruto was home.
Thankfully, not a minute later Naruto opened the door.
"Irina-chan, what's the matter?" Naruto asked, worried and concerned when he saw his girlfriend crying.
Not saying anything, Irina just threw her arms around his neck and cried on his shoulder, while confused, worried, and angry at what could have made the normally cheerful Irina cry like this, Naruto wrapped his arms around her.
"Irina-chan, what happened?" Naruto asked, as he pulled back and wiped the tears away from her eyes.
"Issei… he said that… I couldn't see you and that you weren't my boyfriend… he tried saying he was my boyfriend and that I belonged to him… then he hit me!" Irina cried furiously while wiping her tears away, knowing that it was unbefitting for an Angel like her to cry over a Devil of all creatures.
Hearing this Naruto's face went completely blank as he used every ounce of willpower he had to not just go and eviscerate Hyoudou for daring to lay a hand on Irina. The only thing stopping him was that Irina needed him more right now.
"Can I stay here, please?" Irina asked, knowing that there was nowhere else she could go, since she couldn't go back to the Hyoudou Residence after what happened with Issei.
"Of course. You're more than welcome to stay here as long as you'd like." Naruto said as he held her close to him, while Irina sighed contently, starting to feel better from what happened earlier.
Naruto meanwhile mentally swore that if Issei Hyoudou ever laid a hand on Irina again, he will die slowly and painfully.
*Timeskip-One Week*
Irina walked down the steps after hearing someone knocking at the door, wondering who it could be. Opening it, Irina was surprised to see Xenovia standing there.
"Xenovia, what're you doing here?" Irina asked warily.
While they might be friends and former partners, Xenovia was still living with Issei and she wasn't exactly that trusting to anyone currently living with Issei. The reason being that after she moved out of his home, the other girls have been trying to separate her from Naruto. They were somewhat subtle about it, wanting to get her to spend time with them and trying to get her to come over, which she blatantly refused since she didn't want to risk seeing Issei.
So, while Irina wouldn't want to, she would fight Xenovia, the one who has bothered her the least, if she tried getting her to come back.
"I just wanted to see how you are doing. Is… Naruto here?" Xenovia asked, as she chose her words carefully to not give Irina the wrong idea of why she came over.
"He's out at the moment." Irina replied, while raising a hand and making it look like she was rubbing her arm; while really, she was reaching for Excalibur Mimic in its string form.
Though Xenovia, having spent years around Irina, recognized the transforming sword.
"You have Excalibur Mimic again." Xenovia stated.
"Yes. Lord Michael allowed me to keep it after it was reforged." Irina answered, while Xenovia gave her a nod.
"That's good, it suits you. What does… Naruto think about it?" Xenovia asked, causing Irina to frown at her.
"Why would Naruto-kun be aware of Excalibur Mimic, or anything supernatural? Did you or the others tell him behind my back?!" Irina demanded with a glare.
"No…" Xenovia trailed off, while looking at Irina with narrowed eyes, which only increased the Angels suspicions of this visit.
"You… aren't being controlled, are you." Xenovia stated, after a brief moment of silence between the two former exorcists.
"Why would you think I was being controlled? Why are you here Xenovia?" Irina asked.
"Can I come in; I'll tell you what's been happening since you left." Xenovia said, as Irina watched her warily.
"Fine, but don't try anything." Warned Irina, before she stepped aside to let Xenovia in.
After entering the living room, the girls sat down across from each other.
"Okay, you said you'd tell me what's been happening since I left. Well, I'm listening." Irina said as she crossed her arms under her bust.
Taking a deep breath Xenovia launched into an explanation of what happened at the Hyoudou Residence since Irina left. The more Irina heard the angrier she got.
Apparently, after Issei found out that she had moved out, he told the girls that she was being controlled by Naruto, who they believed was a supernatural creature, and was using her for his own gain. That was why the girls had been trying to get her away from Naruto, being under the impression they were "helping" her get away from someone using her. What's worse was they had also been harassing Naruto as well, trying to get him to stay away from her, though all their attempts ended in failure.
"Why are you telling me this? I thought you'd be trying to break up Naruto-kun and I." Irina asked while glaring at nothing in particular, while Xenovia shook her head.
"No. I was suspicious of this accusation, when Issei first told us about you being 'allegedly' controlled. I didn't bother you or Naruto much, preferring to observe how you both interacted with each other. This visit was just me confirming that you are not being controlled." Xenovia answered as she crossed her arms under her bust, also.
While Xenovia would admit that she wasn't the brightest when it came to the life of a normal person, given the fact she brought a box of condoms to school, but what she did know was Irina after all the time they were partners. So, if anyone could tell that Irina was really being controlled, it was Xenovia, and she could truthfully say Irina was in complete control of herself.
"Oh, well thank you for not acting rashly and figuring things out on your own." Irina said in relief as she smiled at her friend, with Xenovia returning the smile.
"We're friends and friends look out for each other. But I'm still shocked that Issei would lie to us to try and separate you from Naruto." Xenovia said, while frowning at that last part.
She couldn't believe Issei would lie straight to their faces that Irina was being controlled, all out of pettiness.
"Did he even tell you all why I left, or did he just tell you another lie?" Irina asked, as she narrowed her eyes at the thought of her former friend and ex-crush.
"No, he didn't. Why, what happened?" Xenovia asked, wanting to hear the truth from Irina.
Irina then told Xenovia about her last confrontation with Issei; him telling her to stay from Naruto, saying she belonged to him, and hitting her. The more Xenovia heard, the more of her respect and lingering feelings for Issei died out, until she jumped right to her feet with a snarl once she heard the pervert dared to hit Irina.
"I'm going to kill him!" Xenovia exclaimed, while summoning Durandal to her hand.
She's going to cut off his left arm so he can't use the Boosted Gear, then cut off the rest of his limbs, before finally cutting off what's between his legs so he can never feel pleasure from the female body again, then…
"You can't do that! If you do, you'll be labelled a Stray Devil and be hunted for the rest of your life. Would killing him really be worth your freedom?" Irina asked, not wanting Xenovia to get in trouble because of her.
Besides that, a small part of her still valued the friendship she and Issei used to have, even if any romantic feelings she had have long since faded, she still remembered the boy she used to play with.
"No…" Xenovia muttered, before returning Durandal to its pocket dimension.
"Irina, do you think Naruto would allow me to stay here? I don't think I'd be able to stay another night with that pervert." Xenovia said, knowing if she stayed at the Hyoudou Residence, she'd doubt that she'd be able to stop herself from doing anything foolish.
"I'll talk to him, but I'm sure Naruto-kun won't mind." Irina said, as she smiled happily at having her friend back.
Maybe they'll be able to get the others to see the truth as well.
*Timeskip-One Week*
Naruto and Irina walked out of Kuoh Academy talking about nothing in particular. A week has passed since Xenovia has moved in with them; while at first, he was suspicious of her, he allowed her to move in, if Irina trusted her then that's good enough for him. Besides, he wasn't going to deny Irina the chance to reconnect with her friend.
Though Irina had asked him why he didn't tell her about the other girls bothering him, he had just shrugged and said he didn't want to worry her with his problems or make her friends seem less in her eyes. It was equal endearing and annoying to her, with Irina telling Naruto that she wouldn't be bothered if he told her things, along with how they shouldn't be keeping secrets from each other.
Ironic, given they both have a secret they're keeping from each other.
Xenovia proved to be rather interesting to have around, with both her and Naruto getting to know each other really well, as Xenovia wanted to know her friends boyfriend better and Naruto wanted to know his girlfriend's friend better. They also had more in common than they thought, both being more combat oriented than book oriented, which was a relief to both and more fun when Xenovia saw Naruto training one day and wished to join him.
Irina was happy they were getting along and had even started joining them in training, despite relying more on her light weapons and swordsmanship, she figured it wouldn't hurt to increase her strength as well. Maybe she'll even gain another set of wings if she trains hard enough.
Unfortunately, they still had to deal with the ORC interfering in their lives, Xenovia more so given she's still a member of Rias's Peerage. She tried telling them the truth of Issei's lies, but none of them would listen. It made Xenovia wonder if they had truly become that blinded to who Issei really is, that they either refuse to hear the truth or refuse to believe it.
It made Irina and Xenovia thankful that they saw the truth, no matter how much it hurt, than become obsessed with someone who only cares about their bodies.
Thankfully though. one person that did listen was Rossweisse, the Valkyrie that's started living at the Hyoudou Residence after being abandoned by her boss, Odin. She had only really gone along with the other girls and Issei, the latter only because the girls trusted him, because they had been kind to her, even giving her a place to stay. Xenovia and Irina managed to corner her one day, while she was out, and told her of why Irina left and that she wasn't being controlled. It had been a surprise to the Valkyrie to hear that Issei was lying to the girls; while she didn't know them that well, he seemed like a nice person. But now, he seemed just like her former boss, only caring about anything in a skirt and having large breasts.
However, Rossweisse decided to stay at the Hyoudou Residence to see if she could get the other girls to see the truth, something Xenovia and Irina were thankful for. Now, they can only hope that they'll eventually listen to reason.
Naruto, personally, didn't care if the girls listened to reason or not, if they wanted to listen to a pervert that only gave a damn about their chests, let 'em. He only really bothered with this, because Irina wanted to help them.
"HEY YOU, BASTARD!" Shouted a voice that neither Naruto nor Irina wanted to hear at the moment.
'Does this idiot just not know how to take a hint? Or was he just dropped on his head several times as a baby?' Naruto wondered, as they saw Issei stomping towards them, while raising a brow at the red dragon-esque gauntlet on his left arm.
'Oh no.' Irina thought fearfully, when she saw Issei approaching with the Boosted Gear activate and a mad look in his eyes.
"What do you want pervert?" Naruto asked, not really caring what the brat wanted with them.
"You! You've ruined everything for me! Everything was just fine until you showed up, I had my harem, power, and the Three Factions knowing my name! Then you show up and stole Irina and Xenovia away from me!" Issei shouted, while glaring at Naruto with a demented look in his eyes.
'No, no, no, no! He can't talk about the supernatural, Naruto-kun can't find out about it yet!' Irina thought, as she was internally freaking out.
Naruto scowled at Issei's words, this stupid kid was making it sound like Irina and Xenovia were just possessions for him to own.
"Alright look you little punk, listen and listen good. I didn't steal anything from you, I asked Irina because I like her and not just for her body, like you do. I care about her and cherish her, like she deserves to be, she's the most important thing in my life. Even if we weren't together, I'd still care about her and be happy for her if she found someone else to be with, even if it'd hurt that it wasn't me. So no, I didn't 'steal' her or Xenovia like you believe, she's with me of her own free will and I'll be with her until she tells me otherwise, and as for Xenovia, maybe she just didn't want to be around someone that only gave a damn about her breasts." Naruto said, as he glared at Issei.
'Naruto-kun.' Irina thought to herself, as she looked at him while placing a hand over her heart.
She was surprised at his words, that he cared about her that much and not just for her looks, but for her.
If there had ever been any lingering doubts about her accepting to go out with Naruto that first time and all the following times, they vanished at his confession.
But while it was sweet, she was still worried and fearful for her very human boyfriend going up against the enraged Red Dragon Emperor.
"SHUT UP! You don't know anything; I don't care about their feelings or if they feel important! I only care about breasts and getting the harem I deserve! I'm the one who's had to help them with their stupid problems, having to risk my life for them, and they still haven't given me anything besides some groping and seeing their boobs! I've earned my harem more than anything and I won't let a bastard like you stop me from getting it! Now I'm going to kill you myself!" Issei yelled madly, not caring that he just threatened to kill an innocent human, as far as he knew anyway.
Irina covered her mouth in horror that Issei just threatened to kill Naruto. She couldn't let that happen, but what could she do? She may have the advantage with her light weapons, but she doubts that she'd be strong enough to fight Issei as he is right now.
Suddenly, they all heard several gasps that drew the attention of all three of them. Looking over to where they came from, they saw the girls of the ORC along with Xenovia and Rossweisse. Rias, Akeno, Koneko, and Asia all looked horrified and destroyed, having heard what Issei just said, that he didn't care about them and only cared about their breasts and having a harem.
Issei was freaking out at seeing the girls here and having heard what he just said.
"Issei, you… all this time you only cared about having us in your Harem. You didn't care about us." Rias said with tears in her eyes.
Her mind went back to when she was engaged to Riser, how he only wanted her body and planned to add her Peerage to his "collection". She thought Issei was different, sure he was a pervert and made no attempt to hide that fact, but she thought he truly cared about them; that's why they were willing to be with him and share him.
Issei tried thinking of something to say to save some face and get them back on his side, but he couldn't think of anything to say. He looked at the girls, seeing them look at him with hurt, disgust, sadness, and anger written clearly across their faces.
'NO! This isn't how it's supposed to be! They're supposed to love me, worship me for everything I've done for them! Now it's all ruined because, because, because of… HIM!' Issei thought as rage soon consumed his mind, while looking at Naruto, who dared to smirk at him.
HIM! The Red Dragon Emperor, the Harem King, the guy who everyone in the Three Factions knew about! He was above this no name bastard and he'll show everyone he's the strongest!
"YOU! This is all your fault! If you just hadn't shown up, none of this would have happened. I'd still have my harem and get new members whenever I wanted! Now it's all ruined, you took everything from me, so I'll take everything from you! I'll beat you within an inch of your life and make you watch as I take Irina again and again until she's mentally and physically broken, before killing you!" Issei exclaimed, as madness completely consumed what little sanity he had left.
Naruto's smirk immediately vanished at the pervert's words, for daring to say that he'd touch Irina. But he was still amused that the fool believed he stood a chance against him.
"You? Kill me? Huh, I knew you were a shameless pervert and lecher, but I didn't hear anything about how funny you were." Naruto said, not at all intimidated; in fact, he was amused more than anything.
Like this dumbass could hurt him, let alone kill him.
'You lovable idiot, please stop talking!' Irina thought, while wanting to smack her boyfriend upside the head.
Sure he's strong, stronger than most humans, but he's nowhere strong enough to face a Devil, let alone one possessing the Boosted Gear!
"Don't underestimate me, you bastard!" Shouted Issei, as his gauntlet glowed.
"Welsh Dragon Over Booster!"
'Oh no!' Irina thought, seeing Issei now covered in red armor decorated with green jewels.
She then looked at Naruto and rather than see him looking worried or afraid, he looked bored. Bored?!
"Uh-huh. So, am I supposed to be afraid or what?" Naruto asked, as he crossed his arms and looked at Issei in disinterest.
"Boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, boost, BOOST!"
'Huh, now I remember, this is the fabled Boosted Gear that contains the soul of the Welsh Dragon and can double the users power every ten seconds. Then that armor must be the Scale Mail allowing for repeated boosting until the user reaches their max power.' Naruto thought, as a smirk formed on his face.
And yet despite all those boosts, Issei still wasn't even close to a third of his power… in his base form.
"NOW DIE!" Issei shouted, while charging towards Naruto.
"Naruto-kun move!" Yelled Irina, while running to push him out of the way.
While Naruto didn't want to hurt Irina or make her worry, he also really wanted to see if this dumbass could actually hit hard enough to make him feel it.
Which is why Naruto didn't bother to dodge Issei's punch, despite being able to if he so desired, as it collided with his face and sent him flying through a brick wall.
'Huh. Well that was disappointing.' Naruto thought, while lying in a pile of rubble.
He honestly expected more from a famed Red Dragon Emperor, then again he supposed it wasn't the Boosted Gear that was weak, it was the piss poor wielder.
'Well, better go end this.' Naruto thought, as he stood up and dusted himself off.
Though Naruto did stiffen when he heard the pervert shout something that all but signed his death warrant.
"I SAID MOVE YOU STUPID BITCHES!"
*Earlier-With Irina*
Irina covered her mouth in horror as she watched her boyfriend be sent flying through a wall.
'No, please Lord Michael, Lady Gabriel, God, please don't let him be dead!' Irina pleaded and prayed.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Yeah how's that feel you worthless bastard! Now to finish you permanently." Issei said, as he walked towards where Naruto was went flying.
"NO!" Irina shouted, while moving in front of Issei with her arms held out blocking his path.
"Move Irina, now!" Issei demanded, as Irina glared at him with tears in her eyes at what her friend has become.
"No! I won't let you hurt Naruto-kun again! Not now or ever! I thought you were the same Issei I knew when I was little, even if you did become a Devil, but now I see you're just a monster, worse than any Stray Devil! You think me, Xenovia, and the others are just objects for your own pleasure, but we're not! When Lord Michael sent me back to Kuoh, I thought maybe we could have been something, but now I'm glad that I didn't try pursuing you. I'd rather be the worst Devil in existence than ever think about being with you! Naruto-kun is a thousand times better than you could ever be, so if you want to get to him you'll have to go through me first." Irina said as her wings revealed themselves, while created a light spear in one hand and summoning Excalibur Mimic in the other.
"Me too." Xenovia said, as she went to stand beside Irina, while summoning Durandal.
She wouldn't let Issei hurt Irina or Naruto, not if she had anything to say about it.
Issei shook in anger at Irina and Xenovia daring to stand against him and saying anyone is better than him, there is no one better than him! And he'll prove it by killing that damn bastard who ruined everything for him, but first he'll deal with these stupid girls that thought they can leave him!
"I SAID MOVE YOU STUPID BITCHES!" Issei yelled, as he appeared in front of Irina and Xenovia before they could react, with his left arm raised to strike them.
Irina's and Xenovia's eyes widened in fear when they saw the attack heading towards them, they doubted they were fast enough to fly away to avoid it. Raising their light spear and swords respectively to try and block it, the girls closed their eyes and readied themselves for the inevitable pain.
Only, it never came.
Slowly they opened their eyes and were shocked to see Naruto standing in front of them, holding Issei's arm with one hand while his eyes were hidden by his bangs. What shocked them the most though, was the fact that he didn't even have a scratch on him, aside from his clothes being a little torn up, but other than that he was completely fine.
"Na-Naruto-kun?" Irina muttered, before noticing something else that was shocking.
The fur belt she's always seen Naruto wearing, it was a tail!
"You?! How are you still alive?!" Issei demanded, certain that his attack had killed the bastard.
Rather than responding, Naruto's grip on Issei's arm tightened making the boy cry out in pain feeling his bones began to creek. Raising his free hand, Naruto delivered a punch at Issei's abdomen that, to both Irina and Issei's shock, and the latter's fear, shattered the Scale Mail into a thousand pieces and sent Issei flying into a wall where he coughed up blood feeling several ribs were shattered from Naruto's punch.
"You know, it's really rare for me to get truly angry." Naruto said in a deathly calm voice, one that sent shivers down Issei's spine as the black-haired teen started walking towards him slowly.
"Being attack by someone? No big deal, they all end up dead in the end. Insulting me? Why should I care about what some weaklings say? Not many things can anger me." Naruto said, as a dark orange/red aura started emitting off of him, while he shrugged off his jacket.
'What is this power?' Thought Irina.
It didn't feel like magic, it felt denser, rawer and more primal.
"But what you just called Irina-chan and what you tried doing…" Naruto said as his aura intensified, while Issei paled and tried backing away, only to cry out in pain and fall down.
"It has made me very…"
'His power, it's rising.' Irina thought in shock.
"… very…"
'It's surpassed Dulio's.'
"… very…"
'It's reached Lord Michaels and the Satans level now.'
"… Very…"
'Oh God, it's still rising. How much power does he have?'
"… VERY…"
Irina felt herself shaking, barely having the strength to stand as the pressure from Naruto's power was keeping her rooted in place. But even with it bearing down on her, she didn't feel scared, no she felt safe.
Issei on the other hand, was having trouble breathing as over and over again he was shown visions of his own death, each more gruesome than the last. He couldn't move, he couldn't breathe, he couldn't do anything as his death slowly approached him.
Naruto's head snapped up showing his eyes were now burning with green fire as his dark orange/red aura exploded into a golden aura while his hair spiked up turning yellow.
"ANGRY!"
So, what did you think, good. Yep that's right the pairing is Naruto/Irina and Naruto is a Saiyan and already has access to the super Saiyan form, and perhaps others as well. And no there will be no redeeming of the pervert known as Issei, he will be broken and he will eventually die as painful a way as I can think of, why because I don't like him at all. So, review if you liked go away if you didn't.
Storm out
