THE FALLEN ANGEL AND THE RISEN DEMONS
CHAPTER 1: BANISHMENT OF FATE
Okay time to unleash yet another idea to the world! behold this new story in a world where the evil is Praised and good is punished! wrapped up in a War between Angels and Demons. ENJOY!
The Marching footsteps on the hard, shiny tile floor were the only sound echoing through a massive cathedral-like castle.
In perfect sync with one another the footsteps made there way down a long hallway as people in white robes came from their quarters, and from adjacent hallways. As they watched the two rows of armored beings who wielded spears, and bore bright white angel wings on their backs
The row of angels continued as the sound of their feet was soon met with the sounds of chains rattling
The people on the sides began to mutter amongst each other
"This is the first time in 783 years, that one of our own was to be put on the holy trial" one woman whispered to a man next to her
"I can't believe one of us would be so foolish as to try and look at 'it'..." another man said
"It's that trouble-maker of an angel... whatever punishment dealt is good" another woman said
"you know the punishment for even attempting to look at 'it'... instant banishment" The woman next to her said
The one who was shackled was a girl with long blonde hair and chained angel wings... with cuff's around her wrists and ankles... she looked at the floor as she walked, with her eyes covered by the shadow of her loose-hanging hair and a halo above her head... just like everyone else
Four other Angels held the ends of the chains that bound her
Just then from in front of the row of armed angels, and between them and a large set of double doors, a wall of ice spikes came up in front of them
"What the... this is..." one of the front-row armored angel said
"Please Stop!" They heard a voice, just before in a swirl of snow and wind, a boy with long black hair, and four white wings appeared "Please stop... don't Banish her!"
The girl looked up with her her light blue eyes "H-Haku...?" she muttered
the armed Angels pointed their spears at the boy "Haku-sama, I'm sorry but the Seraph's orders are absolute... We understand your feelings, but she has committed a grand crime" one angel said
"Yes... now... please step aside, or you will be charged with obstruction of justice and receive the same punishment as her" a second angel said, as he used his head to indicate the girl
"B-But..." Haku said...just then the ice behind him shattered and he looked behind himself to see another four winged Angel who slowly walked up to him
"Stand down Haku" The white haired man said "For your own sake..."
"B-But... Master..." Haku said
"I know she's your friend... but this must be done... she snuck into the chamber of The Grand Compendium and tried to read its contents..." the man said
"It's okay Haku... don't worry about me..." the girl said
"Ino-san..." Haku lowered his arms and offensive posture and looked down with tightly shut eyes
"Thank you Haku-Sama..." the angels said as they lowered their spears "Now please... step aside
Haku backed up and stepped to the right
The angels continued forward towards the large double doors
And as the lines passed him by he looked at Ino
She turned to him "thank you..." she said
The Angel knights in front pushed open the large double doors which lead to a very large circular chamber with four torches with white fire near the center. Sitting upon a large throne on the opposite side, was a six winged angel
The angels walked as the two rows forked apart until the four Angels with the chains to Ino walked to the center with her in toe
they positioned her in the middle of all the torches
The four angels released the chains which disappeared in glares of light, but left her ankle and wrist cuffs, before they pushed her to her knee's and walked back to line up with the rest of the angels
The Six winged angel stood up from his throne as Haku and the white haired 4 winged angel walked in to the chamber, letting the doors close behind them
The angels all instantly went to attention and clanked the bottom of their spears on the ground
"The Seraph is about to begin the Trial!" one of the Armored Angels said
The six winged angel held up his hand "This Trial in the name of the heavens shall now begin" he said loudly "Does the Accused have anything to say before we begin?"
Ino shook her head "No..."
"Ino Yamanaka; B Class Angel. For the crime of intrusion in the Grand Compendium's chamber, and for attempting to seek the knowledge within its pages... As you are aware the Compendium holds all the knowledge in the universe... and only the gods are allowed to view its contents, Yet you took it upon yourself to sneak into the chambers without the authority. not only that but you opened the book... The punishment for either crime is Banishment from the Heavens and the sealing of your Angelic powers... How do you plead?" The six winged Seraph asked
"guilty of both charges..." she said lookign down
"Look at me when you speak..." The seraph said and she rose her head "You will now be stripped of you rank and title, and Banished to Earth... I hope you will seek forgiveness, if the gods feel you are truly sorry you will be permitted back into the heavens" he said before holding out his right hand and his finger tips all lit up with a white electricity
He began to wave his his hand back and forth and in a pattern just before stopping and pointing his fingers at Ino. Just then the lightning all became one ball and the fire on the torches grew twice their size before lifting up of their posts and floating in circles in the air above Ino
Haku looked away and closed his eyes
The energy in the Seraph's hand shot out in a flash of light and the fires gained a black core before they all converged on Ino, and a column of light shot up
"aaggh" Ino grunted and grit her teeth from the slight pain as the halo above her head shattered and her beautiful white wings turned dark black
the light faded as a glowing white Ino lifted in the air and a portal opened under her feet
The Seraph lowered his hand, in turn lowering Ino into the portal "Farewell..." he said as her head vanished into the portal...
--
A portal opened up in the clouds and a ball of light shot down to the earth and crashed down through tree's into a dark forest
--
Somewhere in the dsitance of the forest a certain whiskered person saw the ball of light crash down "Well what do we have here...?" he said to himself
--
The smoking crater the ball left was about 8 feet in diameter. Ino's coughing and hacking began to echo out
The smoke eventually cleared leaving Ino on her stomach in the middle of the small crater as white lightning crackled around her
she continued to cough as she rose to her knee's and fell back on her butt
She sighed deeply when her lungs relaxed "Damn... Now I've been banished to Earth... the home-world of chaos, demons and death... I'd better keep unnoticed or the demons would attack me on sight... even if I'm a Fallen Angel now..." she said
The blond girl stood up and looked around the dark and creepy forest "BUT... at least I managed to get with this..." she chuckled as she pulled out a gold and black puzzle box from her gown pocket
She twisted its top 180 degree's clockwise before twisting the bottom section 360 degree's counter clockwise, she then pressed in four buttons, one on each side. She heard a clicking noise, and she pushed up from two of the buttons on opposite sides unlocking the top section of the box and it seperated into four parts which folded out
She reached in the tiny box and pulled out a folded piece of paper as she chuckled "They think I wasn't smart enough to come prepared... good thing I found this demonic puzzle box on my last mission on earth... the gods can't sense it or its contents..." she grinned
She put the puzzle box on the ground and unfolded the paper
It was blank on both sides "It may only be a page of the Compendium.. .but I bet it's enough to unlock some of my now sealed powers" she said "Compendium... grant me your knowledge... In turn granting me your power..." she said "I command you to release the seal on my powers..." she said before biting her thumb and letting some of the blood fall on the paper and she put her palm down on it and in a quick flash of light, a lettering text appeared on the paper that then travled up Ino's arm and into her eyes, after all the lettering reached the eyes, the deed was done
Ino fluttered her eyes... "Damn... I can feel some of my power... but I guess one page isn't strong enough to break the banishment seal of the Seraphs and gods... that's okay... I can feel a different power inside of me now...Hell... I might just enjoy not having to listen to all those damned rules... they think I want forgiveness...? They're sadly mistaken" she said "not to mention 'Fallen Angel' sounds cooler then 'class-B Angel'..." she chuckled
She collapsed her wings down and hid them before pulling off her white gown revealing her dark purple attire under neath(think of her outfit in shippuuden)
She began walking through the brush and the tree's, and several minutes passed until she came to a dirt road... she looked both ways "Damn... wish I could tell where I was and Which way was north..." she said scratching her head
She shrugged and began just as she was about to start walking she heard a voice call out to her "Hey girl!"
Ino turned to her left to see two men walking up to her from around a bend in the road "what do you want...?" she asked
"We were just going to check out what the thing that fell from the sky was, bu8t now I'm wondering what a pretty little girl like you is doing in a place like this...?" the guy on the left said
Ino could already tell she didn't like these guys... The larger guy on the right walked closer to her and Ino stepped back until her back hit a tree
The man put his hand on the tree next to her head "Now don't be shy... we can show you around this forest... we know it like the back's of our hands" he said as he brushed her chin with his free hands fingers
She turned her head to the side "Don't touch me" she said slapping his hand away "Damn... get a breath freshener or something... you sick bastard" she said covering her nose
"heheheheheh... I wouldn't be talking so tough in your position" the guy said stepping back
"Feisty one huh...? I like that" the guy on the left said as he came up to her
"Here's your one and final warning;... back off... or die" Ino said, really she had no idea why she said that... but it's not like she was afraid of these guys
"Oh shut up... now take of your clothes or things are gonna get painful" the smaller guy said as he held up his hand and his finger nails grew longer and his face and hand both began to look more feral
He took a step closer to Ino "well...? What's your choice?" he asked
"... go get your dick bit..." Ino spat
"Okay you little bitch... you brought this upon yourself!" he said before geting right in front of her ready to slash his claws when suddenly her black angel wings shot out and startled him "what the...?!"
"You brought THIS upon YOURSELF" Ino said and her wings wrapped around him covering him completely from sight
The bigger guy stepped back a bit "A-A Fallen Angel?!" he said just before he began to hear the grotesque sounds of breaking bones, twisting sinew, ripping flesh and his friends agonized screams
After about five seconds Ino opened her wings again holding the mans limp and lifeless body in her left wing and tossed him aside and into the brush... Ino had small splatters of blood on her face, hands and shirt
She had an almost bemused look on her face "I have no Idea what the hell just came over me... I've never done anything that brutal before..." she thought
The bigger guy looked on in stun before gnarling and clinching his fist "you little Angel Bitch..." he said angrily before his body changed and bat-like demon wings sprouted from his back he grew long fangs and three horns on his forehead as his skin turned a dark blueish black "If you're a Fallen Angel, I'm not gonna bother tearing pussy apart... I Love to eat Angels... now i finally get to taste the dark angel meat" he grinned before charging at her
Ino shook her head out of her daze and quickly smashed her wing into his gut propelling him back and into a tree cracking it
"Don't forget, an Angels wings are all build for power house flying... they're VERY powerful and useful for attack and defense" Ino said
"Heh... you little bitch... prepare to die!" he roared before dashing at her and swiping his caws
She rolled away and his claws tore through the tree and caused it to fall over with the twisting and creaking sound of wood echoed through the forest "see girl.. .THAT'S power..."
"please... I've seen demon that could blast that tree across the forest with their pinky... you don't impress me..." Ino said
"EEEERRRRRrR" he growled with fury before dashign once again at her
Ino held a hand out to the side and used her other hand to hold up her index and middle fingers in a hand sign "Celestial art; white arrow" she said and a thin spike of white, purple and some black energy appeared in front of her and it shot out at lightning speed through the demons chest...
His eyes widened and blood fell from his mouth as he fell over and smashed into the ground before sliding to a stop... his eyes went blank as blood puddled underneath him
Ino panted profusely before dropping to her knee's... "damn.. .that tired me out so much... and its only the simplest technique... n-not to mention the fact... that it wasn't all white... it had... an evil energy too...?" she panted
"meheheheheheheh pretty impressive... Fallen Angel-san" Ino heard a voice echo out "For a second there I thought I'd have to clean up your mess..."
"Who's there?! Show yourself!" Ino demanded, looking around in all directions... she couldn't tell where it was coming from
Just then a shadowed figure appeared in a tree in front of her "There hasn't been a known Fallen Angel for about seven hundred years or something... so what crime did you comit to be banished from the heavens?" he asked
"That's none of a demons concern... now get lost or I'll kill you like I did them!" Ino said
"Tisk tisk tisk..." the figure shook his head "one; you're in no shape to kill ME... two; I'm not here to fight..." he said hopping down and lookign at her
He had short, wild, spiky blond hair, and whiskers on his cheeks... he wore a black jacket, black pants and dark blue shoes "Black wings... No halo... yep... you're a fallen angel alright..." he said looking up and down her "and a damn sexy one too... I see why they were trying to have their way with you..." he said
Ino blushed ever so slightly... for some reason she didn't feel threatened by this boy... who seemed not much older or younger then her own age(which just so happened to be 1739 years old, demons and angels live long lives)
"Why do you care...?" Ino asked
"I'm just interested in those who were once considered holy and how they've committed the sins they so desperately hate us demons for..." The boy chuckled "I'm Naruto..."
"N-Naruto...?" Ino said in shock "Son of the Demon King Minato...?"
Naruto bowed "At your service ma'lady" he said grabbing her hand and kissing her knuckles "may I ask your name?"
she pulled her hand back and blushed "Don't touch me!"
"meheheh.. .calm down... I wont hurt you..." Naruto said "so... whats your name?"
"Ino... not like it matters to you..." She said
"Also... I'm interested in the dark aura I feel from you... little though it may be... it's there... but whats strange is even though you're a fallen angel.. .you shouldn't have ANY dark aura... just weakened holy aura" Naruto said "this peeks my interest..."
"So.. .you're point...? I don't know why it's like that either..." Ino said
"is that so... hhmmm... must be because of some outer influence..." he rubbed his chin "how about this...? I'll help you get your powers back, and make you strong... IF you stick with me and let me learn more about this turn of events..."
Ino looked at him... she knew he was demon.. .but she could already tell he wasn't quite like others... sure still evil obviously but better then most. Then she thought of her situation, and how she's completely lost... "No... I'll be fine on my own..." she said before turning to walk down the road again
Naruto appeared in front of her "aaww come oonn..." he said walking backwards as she continued
"No... I may be in a bad situation but I don't trust demons! For all I know you're trying to pull the same thing as those two assholes earlier" Ino said
"Granted you're a girl whose legs I'd love to part... but that's not what I'm concerned about..." he said "I'm more interested in something I DON'T already know about..."
Ino glared at him "You're not gonna stop bothering me until I say yes are you?"
"Nope..."
"You're a demon, you can just force me you know?" Ino said
"True... so true... but I don't need a broken Angel heheheh so to say"
Ino thought about it some more "Fine... But don't try anything funny"
"Meheh... Everything in the world is funny to me..." he grinned evilly, while mischievously rubbing his hands together
--
As Naruto lead the blond girl down the path "So... what did ya do..?" Naruto asked
"huh...?"
"To get banished...?" Naruto said
"Oh... right... well... you've heard of the Grand Compendium in Heaven right?" Ino asked
"The source of all knowledge in the universe..."
"Yeah...well... I wanted to look at it..." Ino said "only gods are allowed to look at it..."
"You're pretty gutsy... so... what... did you want to try and learn something the gods know?"
"I don't care what I found... I just wanted to see it..." Ino said
"so can you think of any reason why you seem to now have a bit of a dark aura...?" Naruo asked
"Nope... I have no idea... but look at this... shortly before I tried looking at the Compendium, I was down here on earth on a mission... in the process I found an old Ancient Demonic puzzle box... apparently not even gods can sense it or its contents" Ino said as she pulled out the puzzle box from her pouch and the paper from another pocket
Naruto looked at the puzzle box... "hhhmmmmm... Ancient lock... hehehehehehehe..." he said
"what...?"
"The Ancient lock... Its a puzzle box... that hasn't been heard from in about 1000 years..." He explained
"I bought it from a demon in exchange for holy medallions..." Ino said
"Holy Medallions eh?" Naruto nodded, he looked at the piece of paper that was folded up
"Using the puzzle box I managed to sneak a page of the compendium out of heaven..."
"really now...? jeeze your story keeps getting better and better" he grinned
"I tried to use the page to unseal my powers... but it didn't work... I got some sort of power... but not my old one" she explained
"hhmmm... and you say you can't figure out why you have dark energies...?" Naruto said
Ino nodded "yep"
"Well... it's only a hunch... but my hunches are right allot of the time... I think I know why you have a dark aura to you..." he trailed off
"... ... Well...?" Ino asked eagerlly
"That puzzle box is a cursed demon item... and maybe JUST maybe when you put that torn piece of the Compendium into the box, with out the holy influence of the rest of the book I think it absorbed some of the boxes corrupt energy" he suggested "then when you were trying to find out how to get your seal off, and your powers back... it backfired and sent the corrupt energy into you"
"And you assumed all that from just hearing that?" Ino asked
"Yep" he grinned "My brain goes into overdrive when I think something is interesting... there's no guarantee what I said is the actual explanation ..." He said
"It sounds like the most logical idea though..." Ino said
"Here... since we're heading back to my town, I can introduce you to father... he may know something
"NO!" Ino said stopping and backing "I'm not going ANYWHERE near the Demon King! He'll rip me to shreds on sight"
"not if we called you a raven demon" He grinned...
"I HIGHLY doubt the Demon King wouldn't notice a lie like that" Ino said with a blank look of bewilderment
"it's a joke..." Naruto said "But he won't kill you if I ask him not too..."
"Why would he actually listen to you...?" Ino asked
"Because... he knows well I'm a curious son of a bitch, who wants to seek knowledge..." Naruto said
"but would that keep him from like... annihilating me?" The Fallen Angel asked
"Yes... but you must be willing to part with that one piece of the compendium" he said holding his hand out to her as they walked "If you offer him this... he might actually like you... betrayal of your angelic brethren... heheh... I'd expect that from Demons"
"Plus I have no intention of going back to the heavens... I want to be free" Ino said "No rules... no boundries..."
"Well... if you tried I think you'd of made a better Demon" Naruto chuckled "so... you gonna give me that paper...?" he asked
"I will... but not until we get to your dad... I still don't trust you completely..." Ino said looking at him
"heheheheh... wise decision... I don't even trust myself..." He said, lowering his hand and putting it in his jacket pocket
"How far are we from your home...?" Ino asked
"Fairly far... We can fly there if you feel you have the energy" The demon boy explained
"You have wings...?" Ino asked
"Yep... I take it you didn't know my Father's an Eagle demon... but I'm not surprised... most demons don't even know that" Naruto shrugged "I got wings... yeah... but shhhhhhh" he said "No one but my old man and mother know..."
"Ok... I wont tell anyone... so lets just fly... you lead the way" Ino said
"If you say so..." Naruto answered, before rolling his neck around on his shoulders, and he leaned forward slightly as he clinched his fists slightly, jsut then two dark, almost blood-stained brown colored Eagle wings grew from his back and feathers scattered everywhere
Ino looked at his massive wing set in awe "His wings are HUGE" She thought to herself
"Okay... let's go... Try and keep up..." Naruto said before, he flapped his mighty wings once and blasted into the sky, creating a swirling blast of wind in the surrounding area
Ino covered her eyes from the flying dirt and dust
It only took three seconds to reach an altitude of 100 feet, and Ino saw him flap him wings again and shoot forward as fast as a lightning bolt "Holy shit!" Ino said before she quickly blasted into the air following him
Ino flew as fast as she could to catch up to Naruto... after a few minutes of flying she caught up to him and was at about his feet
Naruto looked back at her "Impressive... then again you are an Angel... quick and agile is our specialty" he said "but can you keep with this?" he said before flapping his wings again so hard he lauched forward twice as fast and tore a white pocket in the air as did so, just as a loud sonic boom rippled out
The backwash of wind and turbulence knocked Ino slightly of kilter "A demon flying faster then the the sound barrier?!" Ino said... "I thought only high level angels could do that"
But not to be left be hind and certainly not out done Ino kicked it up a notch as well, and she unconsciously tore the sound barrier as well with rippling sonic boom
As she flew through the air she no longer could hear ANYTHING... total silence "Did I just break the sound Barrier...? How?! I've never tried moving that fast though... could I have always been able to fly this fast... I knew I was fast but this is ridiculous" she thought
Naruto flipped around to where his back was pointing down to the ground below and he looked behind himself to see Ino... "meheheheheh... dang... she's pretty damn fast..." he grinned
Ino caught up to him as he rolled back over to his stomach "Nice... but I'm an Angel... Demons can't out manuver and out speed us" Ino said before flapping her wings again and going farther ahead of Naruto
"mahahahaha, DAMN...! I'm liking this girl more and more every second!" he said before flapping his massive wings again and moving in to catch back up
As the two battled it out neck and neck Naruto pointed to a clearing in the forest "There... lets land there!" he said
"Okay..." and they both shot down towards the clearing and both smashed down on their feet tearing long craters in the ground behind them "I win!" they both cheered, then looked at each other "What are you talking about, I won" they both said in unison "No you lost!" they said once again but pointed at each other "I so got her first!" they said in unison once more
Naruto's eyes twitched... "Stop copying me. I get enough of that from Sasgay... and his dumb eyes" he said
"Who...? What...?' Ino asked
"Don't worry about it... we just have one problem..." Naruto chuckled, scratching the back of his head
Ino's eye's narrowed... "what...?"
"We um... Kind of... well I was enjoying that little race of ours so much... we kind of accidentally flew over my home heheheheh" he chuckled shortly before returning to a serious look
Ino rose her hand up and smacked it on her forehead before she drug down over her face "oh brother... is it far...?" she asked
"No... but we should still fly slowly..." Naruto said
"Hey it was your fault you took off at sonic speeds leaving me there" Ino said
Naruto sighed "We're wasting time with our rhetoric... lets just go... moving slowly" Naruto said lifting into the air slowly as did Ino and they began to fly back in the otehr direction
After a few minutes they came above a large village with a massive building in its center "The capital city... Konoha. Where the Demon kings throne sits" Ino said
"heheh yep... lets go down" Naruto said as he began to descend to the village below
Ino gulped, not knowing what to expect... but she too descended
They lowered themselves gently on the roof of the central building "Okay this is where my old man is. Be careful what you say" Naruto said as he lead her to a door that lead in side to stairs going down
They went in and the door closed behind them
Naruto leard her through many twuting halls and turning paths until reaching a large double door which he pushed open "Hey old man... I got something to show you..." Naruto said as he walked
A man looking out the large window of the room, stood with his back to them... he had similarly spiked blond hair to Naruto "A Fallen Angel huh...?" he said before turning around
"Yeah... you caught that quick" Naruto grinned
"I've fought three Fallen Angels in my life time... I know what their aura feels like" Minato said "So why did you bring one here... did you capture her...?"
"No... I actualy just found her...but you see this one's different..." Naruto said
"How so...? you don't have any experience with Fallen Angels, so how would you know?" minato asked his son
"Well you see... she has a dark aura to her... AND she has a page of The Grand Compendium" Naruto said "and she's willing to give it to you..."
Minato's eyebrow rose and he walked forward "Is that so...?" he said, before holding out his hand "Even if she didn't hand it freely I'd just take it by force... the page dear..." he said
Ino looked at Naruto who signaled to do it
Ino pulled out the folded paper and handed it to him
"Hhmmm... I can already feel a dark aura coming off of this paper... but this is supposed to be holy..." the Demon King said
"It's probably got something to do with this puzzle box I snuck it out in..." Ino said, pulling out the little box
"hhmmm... an Ancient lock huh...? well that could explain the dark aura, but I have no need for the box.. .you may keep it" Minato said
"So... I was thinking... maybe if I help her to harness these new darker powers we can not only make history by creating a dark Angel, but you know me... got to figure out why everything ticks" Naruto grinned
"Do as you wish..." Minato said "I'm going to take this paper to the wise-men"
"Sweet..." naruto said "Oh by the way her names Ino" Naruto said before grabbing Ino's wrist "Now come! I have much to teach you!" he said as he tugged her out of the room
"Dammit Naruto LET GO!" she shouted and punched in the face
"oooo... I like that... got some fight in you even in the presence of the Demon king" Naruto said rubbing his cheek "that's a pretty good start" he grinned
--
Naruto lead her through the streets of demons and monsters as their wings were collapsed
"So where are we going?" Ino asked
"To the training grounds!" Naruto said holding a finger up to the sky
Soon they reached a field with countless training dummies, targets and even death defying obstacle courses.. .several other demons where here training amongst themselves
"Okay... first order of business... focus and release ALL your energy into a ball in your hand.. .I need to see something" Naruto said
"Okay..." Ino said and she held out her hand and began focusing all of her energy into her hand "I hope this helps me get stronger..." she thought
TO BE CONTINUED...
Well there was the first chapter of this new idea... I hope you are interested enough to stay for more
