Blood everywhere, bodies lying haphazardly were the fell, more blood coating the corpses, limbs with no bodies littered the blood bathed ground. Then something flying, beings with white wings stained red fighting other creatures with coal black wings, unmerciful relentless in each kill. Throats slit, spines severed, heads removed, hearts crushed. There was no end to this war this war of angels and demons.
I jolted awake at my alarm clock blaring in my ear. I slammed my hand down on it hard shutting it up. Groggily I made my way to the bathroom and the shower. Once it was warm I hopped in washing sleep off my body, stretching my joints as they protested painfully. Slowly I massaged my scalp with shampoo enjoying the feeling. I quickly rinsed and washed my body. Feeling more awake I got dressed and grabbed a banana, cereal and yogurt from the kitchen I sat at the table to finish my homework and eat breakfast. Taking the last bite of my banana I dumped my dishes into the sink, stuffed my homework into my school bag, straightened my uniform, slung my bag over my shoulder and slipped out the door and locked it shoving my keys into my pocket and made my way to school.
At the gate I saw my three best friends Kiba, Gaara, and Sasuke. They were lounging against the big oak next to the gate. Kiba was laying on his stomach on the lowest branch feet hooked together in the air arms crossed underneath his head eyes drooping lazily, Gaara was laying with his back against the tree one leg laying down the other bent with his arm draped over his raised knee. Sasuke was just laying in the grass face lowered to his sketch book.
Gaara and Kiba were having a lazy conversation that Sasuke would comment on occasionally. He looked at me as I approached and shut his sketch book, he never lets anyone see his drawings, and stood up to greet me.
"Hey Naruto how you doing?" He asked.
"Good I fell asleep early last night so I had to my math homework this morning but I got it done." I said smiling widely.
"Dobe." He said with a smirk.
"Teme!"
"Ok you two stop your little lovers quarrel before I bash your heads together." Kiba mumbled from his place in the tree his eyes still closed.
Suddenly I got an idea slowly I snuck up to the branch careful not to jostle it, I've always been incredibly light on my feet and very graceful, very carefully I got behind him then very quickly pushed him down. It wasn't that far of a drop so it was safe. He let out a yelp of surprise before he landed on his face.
"Dammit Naruto you asshole!" He yelled as he struggled to stand up and brush the dirt from his uniform.
I was just sitting on the branch laughing my ass off. Kiba threw a book at me I dodged and flipped off the branch landing lightly on my feet.
"That's not fair man you got this freaky balance thing goin' for ya what about us?" He grumbled
"Man Kiba I didn't know you could whine so much." I said sarcastically.
"Shut up." Gaara said from his spot against the tree.
"You two fight more than a hunting dog and a wild animal. Just get over Kiba yelling about it won't anything." his eyes were closed as he said this.
Kiba huffed and moved to lay in the grass, hands behind his head.
"Tch whatever."
I sighed and lay down waiting the last ten minutes till the bell rang. I began to doze off and flashes of my dream came back, severed limbs and blood as it rained crimson stained feathers from above. I was jolted awake by the bell signaling we had five minutes to get to class.
I made my way to first period in a daze my mind racing. I didn't even notice Sasuke silently trailing behind me, nor the concerned look he was giving me as I slumped in my seat next to his for history.
Ten minutes later the teacher walked in in looking thoroughly pleased with himself.
"Sorry I'm late I was in the language arts department helping refile some documents that got mixed up." Kakashi-sensei said.
"LIAR!" Half the class in unison.
"Whatever. Open your books to page 678and do the questions at the end of the chapter. You can work with friends just keep the noise level down." And with that he pulled out his orange book, propped his feet up on his desk and proceeded to read.
"Hey are you okay?" Sasuke asked leaning over to me.
"Yeah why do you ask?" I said opening my book.
"Because you've had a haunted look on your face all class period and you have dark circles under your eyes. You look as if you haven't slept for days." Concern colored both his words and face.
"Worried for my wellbeing?" I joked smiling a bit.
"Yes I am, you're my best friend, and of course I'd be concerned for your wellbeing."
"Thanks but I'm fine just stressed about school, I have some stuff missing in math and Asuma-sensei is in my case." I smiled waving off his worry.
We work together during class. Today's chapter was on the great arch angel and the world's most powerful demon and how their love for each other was their destruction.
"The child they had went missing and it is unknown if he is still alive."
The line from the book made me pause. I don't know why but I felt cold all over. My body began to tremble violently. I tried to quell the irrational reaction. I had no idea where it came from and I couldn't control it. I was shaking so hard I couldn't even hold my pencil. Sweat was forming on my face and my breathing increased. I gripped my desk in an attempt to steady myself, my ears were buzzing.
"Naruto? Are you okay?" I felt a hand on my shoulder and shakily turned to see Sasuke, concern the only emotion on his face. barely I heard myself whisper.
"No." Before I passed out
I woke up sometime later and heard a collection of low mumbling voices all around me one voice stood out above the rest the words undistinguishable but the tone unmistakable, concern the only thing evident inside it. My mind was fuzzy and my head was pounding. I tried to sit up and groaned at how sore my body was.
"He's awake!" I heard a familiar voice exclaim. "Naruto are you ok?"
"Ngn!" Was the only sound I could produce in my dazed state.
"Shh don't try to talk you passed out in class and I took you to the infirmary and shizune-sensei gave you some medication that would make you drowsy." Suddenly Sasuke was next to me his hand on my head.
I looked at him weakly and tried to decipher his words as the medication continued to circulate in me bloodstream fogging my mind. Mostly everything was a jumble of colors and sounds, I tried to grasp what was going on around me but mostly it was just white noise. I tried to remember what had I so panicked and came up blank.
"What happened?" I asked ignoring Sasuke's instructions.
He glared at me but answered anyway.
"I'm not sure we were sitting in history and suddenly you started to look sick and then you completely passed out shizune-sensei said you had a full scale panic attack." He sounded like even though he was telling me what happened he wanted an explanation as to why.
I tried to find the answer we both so desperately were looking for but every time something tangible came to mind I count grasp it. It was like trying to grab smoke. My head was starting to clear but it still hurt. Sasuke noticed my discomfort and wrapped an arm around my shoulders.
"It's ok you just need to rest you don't need to be asked questions you can't answer." He turned to shizune-sensei "I'm gonna take him home so he can rest."
"Ok be careful Sasuke-kun he's in a very fragile mental state try not to shock or startle him."
"I'm not a damn gold fish I'll be fine jeez." I mumbled
I saw Sasuke smirk and felt the familiar urge to punch him. Slowly I got up and swung my legs over the side of the bed. Gingerly I placed my feet down and stood up only for my legs to give out causing me to crumple in on myself. Frustrated I pulled myself back up with the side of the bed. I felt an arm go around me just before I collapsed again and looked up to see a mess of black spikes looking away from me.
"Careful Dobe someone might think your drunk." Sasuke said a smirk threatening at the corners of his lips.
I glared but said nothing leaning into his firm side. I never noticed before but it seemed like Sasuke worked out. I could feel the taught muscle underneath his T-shirt. Maybe it was the dizziness but I wanted more of the warmth from Sasuke.
He led me out of the nurse's office and out the school. Some people stared but said nothing as we slowly made our way to his car. He helped me to the passenger side, opened the door and helped me in before buckling my seat belt much to my irritation. He walked around the car and got in and we were on our way. He took the turns and bumps slower than usual.
We got to my apartment and he helped me up the six flights of stairs before grabbing my keys from my pocket causing my face to turn five different shades of red.
He led me to my room and laid me down and pulled the covers over me. But before he could leave I grabbed his sleeve and looked up at his confused face.
"Will you stay with me?" I asked him quietly.
"Yes." He moved to sit on the floor but I pulled him to me.
"No on here with me." I said my face almost smothered in the pillow.
I heard him take a sharp intake of breath and slowly exhale but I didn't dare look at him.
"Please? I don't want to be alone." I plead desperately
Slowly, almost hesitantly he crawled in next to me and kicked off his shoes. I immediately snuggled into his chest and fell asleep as he stroked my hair.
This dream started like all the others, I was walking done an unfamiliar road when a mangled body covered and blood and feathers fell on front of me I screamed jumping back, and suddenly it was raining blood, death, and feathers as the battle of heaven continued. Angelic soldiers dove and plummeted avoiding the demonic weapons thrown at them. I ran trying to find a spot that was calmer, less bloody and as I rounded a corner what I saw was branded forever onto my mind.
A blonde male angel with striking blue eyes and wild hair with pure white wings that were almost blinding, holding a demon with blood red hair and wings as dark as a black hole that sucked up everything in its path she had res slitted eyes and pale skin her hair reaching almost to her knees. Their mouths were locked in a forbidden embrace. And form between them a small cry was heard. They both moved back to reveal a small baby not much older than a few days or even hours to be sure. A tuft of blonde fluffy hair was visible as well as the same as the angel but not much else. The demon woman held it gently in her arms and looked up worriedly at the angel.
"Minato what will we do? If they get a hold of him he will be experimented on and will live a life of pain and sorrow." She asked worry colored her tone.
"Kushina dear I think it's time we accept that we must be separated from him if he is to live a happy life." He said stroking the baby's cheek, as Kushina choked on a sob.
"But who will raise him?" She question desperately
"We'll take him to the human government and request they find a good family for him. From there all we can do is watch our boy grow up from a distance and most likely from a prison.
The woman Kushina started to cry and cradled the baby to her chest as the angel Minato hugged them both.
"Mommy and daddy love you very much remember that okay sweetie?" The baby gurgled incoherently.
"Be strong my son, my little Naruto." The angel said gently.
I think I forgot how to breathe at this point because I found myself gasping for air. They placed me in one of the open windows on a bed moments before both angels and demons descended upon them.
"Where is it? Where's the hybrid?" An angel soldier demanded.
"He died, the mix of blood in his veins killed him he did not survive his birth." The angel said solemnly "He was stillborn."
"It's for the better, that creature would have been a pitiful misshapen thing if it reached maturity. Take them away and make sure they never see each other again for all eternity. They will be punished for their crime. The demon filth will go with her kind you Minato will come with us." And with that they parted.
I woke up to Sasuke shaking me to wake me up but apparently I was flailing because I managed a good right hook to his jaw.
"NARUTO CALM DOWN!" He yelled slightly then lowered his voice "It's alright it was just a dream you're okay." He kept repeating it over and over as I shook in his arms.
"No Sasuke it wasn't a dream it was a memory, a horrifying memory. Blood and feathers and dismembered bodies. Oh god, it was horrible, they just fell from the sky and hit they didn't bounce or make noise just hit and stayed. But then then I saw them. The great angel and demon from history the ones who started the bloodiest war in history over their love for each other. Their son. They gave up everything to protect him." I broke off my rant choking on a sob and gripping Sasuke's shirt so tight my knuckles were turning white.
"You were just dreaming about what we learned in history today. The forbidden lovers had a baby half angel and half demon. They say he was born dead but there are several people mortal and immortal who believe otherwise." He said slowly as if talking to a child.
"No, I was there that night, that's why I know every little detail, though I was only just a few hours old. I'm the lost son of the great angel Minato and the great demon Kushina."
