A/N: Alright folks, this here story is a bit of an odd ball me and my buddy kinda spitballed that gathered a life of its own. I will be taking generous helpings of creative license so thats all fair warning bow before people bitch whine or moan. Personally I haven't seen a really good Naruto DMC crossover and thought you know what, fuck it. I mean most are lacking and the majority are unfinished to the point of being beyond repair. But enough about my opinion. My other stories that people like ARE being reviewed and reread for ones I haven't worked on for a while but I needed a break and decided to spin a yarn to see how an idea that we half-ass joked about might actually come out in practice. Tell me what you think in a review or pm if it makes you more comfortable. Honestly the reviews are nice to hear feedback from you guys but knowing what you guys like, being able to explain from my POV how and why things are put together the way they are is something I like doing.

Summary: Angels, demons, humans, nephilim. Four races, four winds that race the globe. Whispers of darkness, of war and conflict beyond the veil headed their way, reach the Elemental Nations making many a weary soul on edge. Only brothers, one deigned by darkned and the other by twilight, touched by sin and virtue can lead the charge to save the humans from threat coming closer to their doorstep. The only question that remains to be asked is if they care enough to deliver the humans from a fate they deserve for their actions?

Tags to take note of for the duration of this fic: DARK/EVIL!Sandaime. ALIVE BUT NOT NARUTOS MOM YOUNG!Kushina COUNCIL BASHING! SASUKE AND SAKURA BASHING!

Pairing: NarutoxLadyxTrishxKushinaxKushinasOCtwinsister (the pairing will make more sense if the reception of this goes well and people ask for it to be a continued project)


Naruto grunted as he propped his bleeding form against the alley wall and grimaced in pain as he took in the damage to his body. "Six lacerations that are pretty deep, looks to be second degree burns...from an acid of some sort, dislocated shoulder. God these people are pathetic" he muttered with a dark sneer. Above him the Demons Eye, a phenomenon that occured on the Winter Solstice every dozen years without fail looked across Konoha with a cold scarlet eye bathing the dark corners a misty red. 'The irony is thick there' he thought with a snort popping his dislocated shoulder back into place while he ground his teeth in agony at the pain. 'They want my blood and call me a demon yet its under the Demons Eye that they fear to deal out their vitriol at full capacity.'

"Naruto? Is that you kid?"

The boy cursed silently and ran a hand through his silvery white tinted hair. Of course leave it to Kirin to find him in a stste like this. Being a street kid herself, her and Naruto had hit it off well enough despite the tiny difference in age with her being nearly fifteen and him eleven. Perhaps it was more than just their shared history as outcasts and treated as the dredge of society, Naruto publically assaulted and demeaned as a 'murderous demon' while Kirin did everything she could to survive on the street leading to her being a stripper like far too many girls that were in her situation & the village let fall through the cracks, that had endeared the older girl to him but he didn't know. If he was honest he didn't care. Kirin and the other strippers at Candyland, girls he admittedly did guiltily eye up on an occasion or two despite feeling a more sibling bond with them since they treated him so well but damn pre-teen hormones, had always treated him better than ninety nine percent of the village as a whole. "Yea Kir, its me" he said tiredly. Now he would have to let her fuss about him if he ever hoped to get back to the shitty apartment afforded to him by the Sandaime in time for any sleep considering his genin test in the morning.

Kirin frowned at the tired resignation and knelt down with her amber eyes turning into hard stone seeing his injuries. For her age she knew she was a beauty, the regulars at Candyland parted with their money faster than she had to just step a leg out from the curtain for her than any other girl, but when it came to Naruto the beauty that teased and seduced with dance disappeared for a very protective pseudo older sister. At nearly 5'7, she had always been told her family was told on both sides so her height wasn't a surprise, and well in shape from her job she cut quite the figure. Amber eyes that usually gleamed with mischief and anarchy, a not quite pale or tan but in between complexion colored nearly blemishless skin with the exception of a fox embraced angel tattoo branded on her back, high C-cup chest and long legs that seemed to go on she knew she was beautiful. Hell, she was fucking gorgeous! "How many was it this time and don't lie to me like you did last time" she said gently placing a hand on Narutos shoulder.

Naruto shook his head and closed his eyes leaning his head against the brick wall. "Doesn't matter Kir. You know as well as I do the idiots fear the Demons Eye enough that barely anyone comes out. Well except to see you and the girls dance at Candyland" he said shaking his head laughing mirthlessly. "Besides, it barely hurts. If this was the time for Gods Eye than I would be worried and no where in this shit hole village." A rather dark look crossed his face at the thought and opened one eye to stare at the blood red moon.

Kirin scowled at the remark and forced Naruto to meet her gaze, the hardness melting into genuine heartfelt worry and concern for him. "Yea it does and you know it. You know your nee-chans worry about their little brother" she said said in a soft voice. "Can you walk? We can get you cleaned up at mine and Saras apartment. Hell, stay the night so we know you'll be safe for the rest of the solstice and you can leave for test in the morning."

Oh no, not the puppy dog look. Naruto tried to look away but Kirins gentle hand kept his gaze locked on her. "Fine fine you win! Just stop looking at me like that! Damn look should be illlegal" he said looking away. Her soft bell like laughter was like a salve for his wounds as the sound struck something in him. He rarely heard Kirin or the other girls laugh but every time he did he was struck just how...almost innocent and pure it was despite knowing everything he knew of them. 'Then again' he thought trying to push himself up on his good arm to let the one put back in its socket soothe for the time being but failed til Kirins hands grabbed his sides helping him stand 'I'm not a paragon of virtue either. Gambling, drinking...' He snorted mentally but smiled a small grateful smile for her help.

"Nee-chan has you" Kirin said returning the soft smile with one of her own. Wrapping one arm around him she led him to her shared apartment with one of the other girls from Candyland. "You still haven't told how many it was this time or what your injuries are." The door closed to the crappy two bedroom apartment where she saw Sara, her friend and an older girl who adored Naruto like a little brother like the other girls, laid out on their crappy lumpy couch.

"Idiots attack our little brother again Kirin?" Sara glanced up from the bill envelopes with a grimace. They were cutting it entirely too close. If she pulled a couple of extra shifts she could clear the amount they need to cover the bills and barely cover food with her tips.

"What else is new?"

Naruto glanced to the older girl and sighed spotting her making a demanding motion for him to join her on the couch. Just like Kirin and most of the girls at Candyland Sara was gorgeous. While she wasn't nearly as tall as Kirin, Sara barely broke the 5'1 mark, or nearly as big in the chest with what he guessed was on the bigger side of a B-cup but nowhere near a C-cup she had her own uniqueness that made her quite popular in and outside of the stripclub. Her eyes were such a shade of pale blue that many at first would assume she was blind, her hair was a luscious shade of vermillion that shone in any lighting and hung down to her waist wihile her skin was a deep exotic tan that was not native to Hi no Kuni. Ploppling down on the couch with a roll of his eyes he ignored the huff about 'getting blood on the couch' since he knew they didn't care, it wasn't the first time and wouldn't be the last the patched him up resulting in his blood staining the crappy couch, when his eyes caught sight of the open bil with an angry red PAST DUE FINAL NOTICE Stamped into the paper. "You need some cash to help out wih the bills?" he asked.

Kirin shot a look over to Sara, unnoticed by Naruto, and shook her head to tell her to reject the offer they knew he would present as she retrieved the first aid box. It was probably the most well stocked thing in the apartment and the irony of why made her chest clench in anger. Pushing it down she returned to the pair and sat on the other side of the silvery white haired boy. Patching him up was a futile endeavour, he would somehow be fully healed by sunrise and not even he would understand how, but as his big sisters it was their job to patch him up when he was hurt even if they all knew it was pointless.

"Don't worry about it. I'm picking up a couple of extra shifts at the club. Your nee-chans can take care of themselves squirt" Sara said ruffling Narutos hair lovingly. They could take care of themselves but for how long really? The club had hired on some younger girls to fill the roster and she could see some of her regulars switching their gazes slowly but surely.

Narruto winced as rubbing alcohol swabbed the wounds clearing the mess of blood away before Kirin began to wrap the lacerations, two to his legs one to his back and three on his chest. Ignoring the answer from Sara he reached into his ruined jacket and pulled out a thick wad of bills, easily nine thousand ryo after he paid his rent on the shitty apartment afforded to him by the Sandaime. Sometimes it paid to have the devils luck and have Lady Luck on his shoulder within the underground gambling circuits. It had been a hassle at first, no one believed a kid could afford his way in let alone win, but proving them wrong time and time again earned him a reputation that made supplementing the orphan stipend for ninja academy students incredily easier. "How much do you need? Its not a loan so don't even begin to say you'll pay me back" he said with a pointed look.

Sara tried weakly to protest but The Look was one thing the girls could not argue with no matter how they tried. She looked to Kirin for help only to find the younger girl too focused on patching up Naruto. "We couldn't.. You need it mor-"

"Nee-chan, just tell me how much you need. I can make it back in no time flat down at The Leopard." Narutos pointed look softened as he raised his arm, the one he had put back in its socket not too long ago that finally started to not hurt as much, and gently palmed Saras cheek. "I won't ever see my sisters tossed out to the streets where you would be in danger. Please tell me and let me help" he said as his thumb brushed small reassuring shapes across the delicate flesh making the dark skinned girl tremble lightly under the calloused pad.

"Sixty five hundred." Admitting to needing so much was humiliating to Sara even as she reluctantly accepted the money. They were supposed to be the older siblings. They were supposed to be the one giving him money when he needed it. They were..

"Stop it Sara, I know that look." The quiet admonishment from his lips may as well have been a collosal explosion and a slap to the older girls face since Naruto rarely ever used their full names. "You, Kir and the other Candyland girls are family. You girls took me in when I needed it most. Showed me what it meant to be loved and cared for. You go out of your way to help patch me up when these fucking village idiots hurt me for whatever damn reason they do it for. Family supports each other, rule number you girls taught me remember?" he asked rhetorically. He leaned jn and kissed Sara softly for just a moment, a brief familial but affectionate peck really, before he pulled back. "Don't be so worried about having to ask me about needing a little money when I can help. Money is replacable but my loving sisters who took in a petulant little brat with a mouth worse than most jounins are not. Family has no price tag when it comes to the beautiful caring women I adore so completely."

Kirin smiled softly and ducked her head hiding her eyes behind her bangs as she finished the last knot before pulling out the burn cream. It was a little over the top and even a little Casa Nova-esque in fashion but nonetheless it worked. Sara relaxed and the look of humilation & embarrassment faded into a soft loving expression as her hand closed around the money. 'You're going to break a lot of hearts some day little brother' she thought carefully applying the cold cream so she didn't agitate the irritated and inflamed flesh.

"You're right. I should be a little less stubborn shouldn't I?" It was rhetorical as Sara laughed quietly and leaned in nuzzling Narutos cheek lightly. "You may have a mouth on you worse than a jounin and its only gotten worse with age but your heart is still as big as when we came across you. Don't ever let that change little brother, not for anyone." Her arms wrapped around him and pulled him in close after Kirin put the burn cream away.

"And disappoint my sisters? As if" Naruto said snorting but returned the hug burying himself in the warm embrace. "Disappointing my family is the last thing I ever hope happens in my lifetime."


UNKNOWN LOCATION


A redhaired woman smiled softly with tears brimming as she watched her Naruto with the two girls. It wasn't her first time watching him but calling it her only means to pass time was barely able to pass as truth. They had been displeased, ha it was laughable how political her sentencing had been for falling in love with an unapproved person, of her choice of lover and husband leading to her current imprisonment forced to watch her sons suffering. 'At the very least he has a family of sorts watching over him. But where is Vergil?' It wasn't the first time she thought her husbands absence from their sons life was odd. 'At the same token, where is my baby boy Nero?' Now her emerald gaze narrowed and the chains shackling her groaned. Something was wrong and she would see that the sins committed against her family were avenged. Her first step would be escaping these chains and making a proper escape plan with her daughters; it was time Naruto meet his true family and his true elder sisters.


ACROSS THE ELEMENTAL NATIONS AT THE SAME MOMENT


Fourteen caves sealed with golden doors glowed and seemed to tremble at the wave of energy pouring across the continents. It was nearly time and the guardians were ready to do their jobs once more "THE SINS AND VIRTUES RISE AGAIN!" one of the guardians cackled madly summoning ghostly red blades into his hands and juggled them for a momemt before throwing them deep into a masked ninja squad with a kanji for ROOT carved into their masks before the blades exploded killing them all instantly splattering the blood revealing text on the gold door as it dripped down reading:

Seven keys to open the gates

Seven virtuous saints to grant you passage

Seven sin stained warriors to walk the path

Scattered to the four winds and reunited under one banner.

If he stands true the world shall be saved

If he shall fall it is doomed

Seven help him

Four to lose him

And three shall die.

He walks a path of his own design

He will face trials and tribulations

He will become who he is destined to become

Or all is to lost eternity.

Fate may bind him but will not break hum

Destiny may hold his cards but cannot read them

He posseses the power to change the fates of those who cross his path

And rewrites history with every step.

His allies will endear him

His enemies fear him

The innocent revere his actions

The corrupt plot against him.

He is neither light nor dark but shades of twilight

One part of the puzzle, his other half missing

Separated at birth to hide their identies

By the love of a father.

Beware the nephilim

For his wrath holds no restraint or mercy.
