Exodus
This is my first multi chapter story and will take me a while to complete. Once again a big thank you and a big hug to everyone who has read and reviewed my other Fics. I really like all the reviews there so nice. I will try to wipe out spelling mistakes bad grammar (although the above sentence is wrong according to word. Bastard software).
I will be very grateful for ideas for my fic, mostly on the subject of where to go with the story, different techniques for Naruto and my OC Fenris, the more creative the better and anything else that people would like to see it this one.
There will be a greater amount of swearing, violence, blood and possible gore (but very little of women deaths, don't ask me I just hate it when women get killed. Although I might have a few female deaths just not very violent) than other fics. And lemons later on in the story. Pairing that are defiantly happening Naruto and Hinata, Fenris with another OC.
A brief summery of the story. Naruto is a half fox demon with power over fire and heat, while Fenris is a half wolf demon with the power of lightning and electricity. The first few chapters, possible about 6 or 7, of this fic are about their escape from hell (or demon realm) into the world and what they decide to do next.
I hope you like this one as much as my others. All feed back, positive and negative, will be greatly appreciated. Warning, I am a wrestling nut/fan and currently a blue belt in Ju-jitsu so it is very likely that Fenris and Naruto will be using some techniques I know and wrestling moves (flying pile drivers are too cool). Don't worry I wont go over board with the wrestling.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto but Fenris is mine. If you want to use him just ask.
cough cough … MWUAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH……heh
(This is now a stander of mine :)
Prologue
While it is common knowledge that ninjas are organized into hidden villages and most operate with a certain amount of assistance from others, it is uncommon knowledge that some the world's demons are organized in the same fashion. It was shortly after the creation of the shinobi villages that the demon nobility saw that if they were to continue as they were, a lose assortment of demon warlords constantly fighting against each other for power and territory, they would quickly be wiped out by the more organized ninjas. It was decided by the most powerful demon lords that they should unite in larger numbers. It was now that the Undercities were formed.
The Undercities could be view as a vile perversion of the hidden villages, accepting missions from the demon nobles, mostly for the killing of powerful humans or opposing demon lords; but they are unique in the way they are run, though very rarely cooperating with other Undercitites preferring to compete against each other. Run under rules of violence and power only the most useful and powerful demons are trained in the Undercities.
A lot of demons are not allowed join live in an Undercity, this is why demons still come in to contact with humans in random encounters ranging from fights to friend ship and love. This gave birth to humans, mostly prominent clans, forming alliances and singing contracts with powerful demons, be they benevolent or malevolent towards humans. This is how humans have the ability to summon creatures to aid them in battle and some clans were given specials powers that could be passed down the generations.
This is how the most powerful bloodline abilities can be used by humans of the same family most notable are the Byukugan and Sharingan used by the two great clans of Konoha which were giving to them after signing contracts with demons. Another situation that occurred from humans and demons living in the same world was the interbreeding between the two. Although some of these unions are brought together in love, despite great differences, the offspring know as half-demons are often hated and feared. It is not uncommon for half-demons to grow up alone in the world, often the parents would leave them or have died, finding that no one would take them in or show them any form of friend ship. Half-demons are seen as a mongrel race by most demons over the world and are often killed on sight. The Undercities do not even consider accepting and training half-demons.
The most powerful demons have the right to progresses in power and status to become a High demon or possible an Arch Demon lord and rule an Undercity with the help of a council of clan elders. The training is brutal and deadly but it breeds an elite unit of demons capable of making most humans tremble at the very thought of them.
Not every High demon will join an Underity. While the Undercities offered sanctuary and a chance to increase their power to most demons, at a great price, some of the most powerful demons, most notable the great nine tailed Kuuybi that was later defeated by a Kage ninja, refused to ally them selves with any Undercity continuing of there centuries of destruction. It was these demons and those who were not part of an Undercity, called "wild demons" that humans came into contact with most often causing the belief that all demons are mindless agents of chaos and destruction. This gave rise to a number of humans that strived to wipe out demons from the world be them evil or good. Fearing these powerful beings the Undercities decided to make the bastions of evil hard to find using complex illusions and the use of teleportation devices, that were kept under strict lock and key, to enter and leave an Undercity .It is the an location of an Undercity that is most closely guarded secret of any city, less the become targets for their enemies such as the pure Mikos, holy monks, righteous hunters, fanatical exterminators, shadowy ninjas and, the most feared by all demons, the Guardians.
It was with the increasing risk of wars with the other Undercities and the ever resilient humans that the Arch Demon lord of the Undercity of the Fang decided that they needed a group of warriors that they could afford to lose but were still useful in achieving the cities goals. It was with this in mind that he degreed that half-demons could become part of the fang. The half-demons were draw into the cities with promise of respect, equality and power of which very few received from humans and other demon. Unknown to the half-demon they would be damned to be the lowest of the low and subject to hatred, scorn even great then when they live outside a city and were given dreadful living condition, scraps of food and would be sent on the most dangerous missions. Any half-demon that joined the fang were put in restraint collars and immediately put to work as fighting slaves.
There is not a single half-demon that dose not regret believing the promises of the Undercity demon rulers. Most lose any hope of freedom in the first few weeks after the collars are put on and reserve them selves to death during a mission. But there some half-demons that refuse to accepted this and strive for freedom and a chance to live as they want. But often lose their lives in ill planed escape attempts, while there are others that take their time and wait for the right moment to implement their escape.
It was shortly after the uncelebrated thirteenth birthday of one Uzumaki Naruto, a half-fox demon, that he put his escape plan into action.
End of prologue
The fire roared around Naruto as he tensely sat in lotus position, his eyes focused intently on a thick burn covered training post. Sweat dripped down his furrowed brow as he brought his hands together, compressing a vivid crimson sphere of energy between them as the surrounding flames rose up in intensity and height. Naruto's eyes bore into the middle of the post with a look of boiling hatred as he shot his right arm out in a fist with his index and middle finger extended. A small blade of fire formed and split from the small inferno on the floor in front of him and shot towards the middle of the post. It dug in to the post, scorching the surrounding wood, before fizzling out leaving behind a smoking, charred gash in the wood.
Naruto sighed. He still was unable to pierce completely through the wood using the 'Burning Dagger Technique' he had been practicing for the last five hours. The post in his small dark room was covered in dozens of black cut marks from his failed attempts to hit the wall behind the post. The flames around him waned and died down leaving a ring of smoking, blackened stone on the hard floor. Naruto stood up and walked to examine the post further to see how far his attack had got through. Upon closer inspection, his last shot had been the deepest, slicing in about six inches. It was his best yet but the post was thirty inches thick. If he was in a fight the mediocre attack would had cost him his life. Naruto was so close to perfecting the technique, designed to pierce through armor and other objects, which full blooded demons found an easy attack to utilize.
Naruto cast his mind back to what his coarse voiced, horned sensei had told him about using the attack. It all had to do with hate. 'Dead again, runt. How many times must I tell a pathetic Halfling like you how to do a simple technique? Think about what makes you the angriest and picture it on your target, then aim to shoot the small burning blade through it. Now do it again or you'll not be feed for a week '.
No matter how hard he tried he could not focus his hate enough to penetrate his target, which often earned a swift clip round his head from his sensei's staff when he failed numerous times in the training pits. His blood began to boil as he remembered the brutal training and sparse instructing that he and the other half-demons received from the many instructors that constantly reminded them that they were all ways going to be beneath them no matter how hard they tried and fought.
If the old bastard wanted anger Naruto would give him anger. He turned away from the training post and stomped across his tiny living quarters towards his sink and mirror. Naruto gripped the crumbling basin as his scowled at his reflection trying to recall all the things that had ever made him angry. He took small note in his long red-brown fox ears and two swishing tails of the same colour, that marked him as a half breed. Half demon, half human, damned to hated and rejected by both species alike. Naruto bore his fags as he remembered the only reason he was still alive was that the Arch Demon lord he severed had use of him and the other half-demons in the Under city of the Fang.
They were there to die. It was their job to go on the most mission that were not worth a true demon's time but still had a high chance of death. To save on the loses of valuable man power that could be used to fight the other Unddercities, the Arch Demon lord gave the missions Naruto and his brethren, who were deceived into servitude with promises of acceptance and respect. But in reality they were the preverbal canaries. After being lured into the Undercity of the Fang, cold steel collars were clamped around their necks and could be used to cause vast amounts of pain and even death to them at the whim of their commander. With the restraints in place they under went brutal training but were not allowed to learn any techniques used by their betters, only learning low class attacks.
Naruto was one of the lucky ones. Some half-demons were attuned to an element or power, passed down in their blood from one of their parents that gave them an edge in battle. With his ability to create and wield fire Naruto was able to survive more missions than those half-demons who only had increased physical strength. The Arch Demon lord saw that the few that could use unique powers, much like full blooded demon, decided that they would receive training in basic energy manipulation, so their powers could be more useful to the Fang. While Naruto and few others grew in power it was enough for them to gain the recognition of their vile lords.
Even with the towering odds of poor training and ludicrously dangerous missions, some of the half-demons trained hard and fought with pride, with hopes of escaping their infernal imprisonment. Seeing the threat that arose from a group of resilient half-demons, the council elders sent them on increasingly dangerous missions in an attempt to thin their numbers all the while manipulating some of the more vicious Halflings to cause friction among the group, so that the chances of the group unifying complete reduced. The council's plans were proving successful. There had been close to a hundred half breeds in the Undercity of the Fang, now there were thirty five.
The porcelain began to crack under Naruto's grip as he recalled the last mission they went on. They were sent into a stinking marsh to eliminate a group of "wild" beetle Demons that were encroaching on one of the human villages that had foolishly singed a devil's contract with the Fang for prosperous crops. The Beetle demons themselves were of little concerned to Naruto, having personal incinerated a large number of them. What did concern him and the others was when a Bone serpent rose up from the swamp and attacked. Bone serpents were a grand undead class of enemies that sought to snuff out life in any shape or form. The fight was long and ugly; many of the half-demons were cut down and devoured by the undead monstrosity. After they managed to fell the beast, by pulling out its rotten heart, the weary warriors marched back to their underground home compelled by the collars, no doubt to be berated for a sloppy mission, which they could not have planed for, and confinement to their tiny rooms.
Naruto looked around the room that he had called home for the last ten years. Its stone walls were bare, he had a moldy old bed in the corner and a woodworm infested table that wobbled when he sat down at it. Aside from these and the sink and mirror the only other objects in the room were a wardrobe, that contained his cloths, and a number of training post that he was ordered to use when ever he was not training in the pits or on a suicide mission.
Naruto looked back at his reflection and silently mused about how he looked and what made him stand out to humans and demons alike. His hair was blonde, spiky and all ways messy, his eyes were deep blue which he thought he must have got from his human parent. He looked at the six strange whisker marks on his cheeks and wondered about what purpose they severed. He then looked at his long red-brown fox ears. He smiled as her remembered all the times his heightened hearing had saved on missions. He also thought they made him look kind of cute, from a human point of view. He then looked at the rest of himself. He was thirteen years of age but looked slightly older from the look of his muscles, having removed his shirt while training with fire, which had been developed from ten years of training. His two long tails were the last thing he though about. They were the same colour as his ears and were very useful as tools and weapons, allowing him to grip objects or smash an opponent when they were not expecting it.
His thoughts were rudely interrupted as a large drop of filthy water landed on his forehead. Naruto looked up and saw that his ceiling was leaking again. Naruto then began to remember, again all the things that made him angry. The missions, his cruel sensei, his crappy living quarters, the Arch Demon lord, the haltered he received, his fate his life that some one else had damned him to live, the tournament!
Naruto was shaking with fury at this point as his hands burst in to flames, scorching the sink that he heal in a tight grip. His eyes looked straight into his reflections as a large fanged grin briefly appeared on the mirror before vanishing. Naruto had no idea what the disembodied smile was, or who it belonged to, but for some reason made him snap.
With a primal yell, Naruto let go of the sink, turned and pointed his right index and middle fingers at the training post again. Another blade of fire shot from his fingers again but this time it was indecent white from the heat and moved a lot fast, crossing the room in what almost a blink of an eye leaving a wispy trail of smoke lingering in the air. The burning dagger slammed into the battered post and sliced through it, setting it a blaze before digging in to the wall behind it. The top of the post flew up into the air from the sear force of the attack. Naruto, with his faced twisted into a snarl, opened up his hand and shot five more blades into the fly remains of the post. They all hit and reduced the post top into burning splinters and ash.
Naruto breathed a sigh of relive after finally using the 'Burring Dagger' so effectively. He would need it and all his other abilities and tricks if he was going to live to see tomorrow.
Naruto's door burst open, slamming in too the wall, to reveal a light purple skinned demon. He was about a head taller than Naruto with thin long gnarled fingers, a cruel withered old face with cold yellow emotionless eye devoid of any warmth. Two long twisting horns protruded from head point straight to the ceiling, Naruto always thought they made him look like some freakish goat but he never said it. He had a bald head except for a long grey ring of hair at the sides. He had a long hooked nose, point yellow teeth and a long thin beard the same colour of his beard starting from his chin and ending at his waist. The Demon wore a long dark brown that just stopped before the floor and had twisting symbols going across the top of the shoulders and down the arms. This was Naruto's demonic sensei Onaga, a man in all the years of teaching Naruto had never showed him any kindness or respect often hitting Naruto around the head with his staff that was essentially a gnarled length of wood with a thick tip at the top that he used as a club.
Onaga's hands rested on his staff that came up to his middle and observed Naruto's room, completely ignoring the fox half-demon, with a great amount of distain. His eyes briefly settled on the remains of the training post before looking at Naruto.
"Get dressed runt, it's time for the finally match. You'd better win and make me look good or I'll turn your skin into a new suit and wear you tails a scarf." Naruto knew from experience that Onaga was not one to take lightly. Although he looked frail and weak he was one of the most powerful demons in the Fang and was the instructor in demon power manipulation, like Nartuo's fire.
"Yes sensei" replied Naruto trying to keep his voice neutral while holding back his hate for the old demon. He walked over to his wardrobe and took out an orange top, that matched his trousers, and a long grey coat with metal elbow pads attached to the arms. He donned the orange top completing his vibrant outfit before attaching metal grieves and forearm guards covered in row of dozens of tiny scratches. He then out on his coat, which was slightly ragged, and slid on some black leather fingerless gloves.
The coat was made of a special material that was able to absorb some damage caused by demon powers or chakra but only if the attack hit them directly. Naruto and a few of the other half-demons had acquired these coats after a mission and were allowed to keep them but they could not take them to the village armor smith, so if they were destroyed they would be with out any protection what so ever.
The last two items he put on were a pair of simple black shoes and his head armor. The head armor was just a piece of metal that covered his forehead and went down the sides of his face curving into a points just bellow his whisker marked cheeks. In the center of it was the Fang's symbol, a vertical line with two smaller lines pointing diagonally in, one an each side. The head armor gave no protection it was to identify him as part of the fang and as a half-demon.
Naruto turned back to his loathsome sensei who jerked his head towards the door and walked out. Naruto left his room and followed his sensei as they walked down a dimly lit stone grey corridor. Naruto stared at Onaga's back thinking about how much of a misery this old demon had made his life. He began musing that all it would take to rid him of this vile being was to move quickly and grab his long horns and twist sharply, breaking his neck. Naruto imagined how the sweet sound of his neck vertebra breaking when Onaga thrust his staff to one side towards the wall. Naruto felt an invisible force pick him up and slam him against the wall. It held him there, continually pushing him into the wall as his feet dangled above the ground.
"Runt, don't ever think that you'll ever be able to kill me. I don't have to be physic to read you boy" said Onaga with his back still to Naruto. "I could end your miserable life anytime I wanted." And with this Naruto felt as though a great powerful hand was pinning him up while another had grabbed his rib cage and was slowly pulling it out of his chest. Naruto screamed in pain as his chest heaved. It could not end like this; to escape Naruto had to do something he hated.
"Please Sensei stop" cried Naruto. He hated having to beg for anything especially this demon but it would be all for nothing if he died here. Onaga lowered his staff and Naruto fell to the floor in a crumpled heap.
"It would be pointless to kill you now; you still have some use to me. Beside if the win the tournament you might be allowed to become a full demon" Onaga said coldly as he resumed walking down the corridor. Naruto picked him self up and followed his sensei again mentally curing the old bastard. They turned a corner that lead towards a large pair of iron doors with a ray ruddy light piercing thought the gap down the middle.
"Win this tournament or else runt." Threatened Onaga as he left up a flight of stairs, which lead off in the wall,
Naruto was then alone with his thoughts as company. The tournament was announced three weeks ago and was exclusively for the half-demons. The Arch Demon lord declared that the half-demons were to engage each other in one on one combat against each other in a stadium before the entire Undercity, the prize to the winner, if there was one, was that they would under go a ritual that would make them a full demon. Naruto knew better, the tournament was not to give the half-demons a chance at equality but to drive a wedge between them all breaking any chance of unity in to pieces and squashing any risk of open revolt against the demon lords.
Naruto never believed that most the half-demons he had fought with, shoulder to shoulder against huge odds on many occasions, had turn so quickly on each other for a chance at power. There were only a few of them that remained loyal to each other, one even refusing to fight against any of his kin. He was promptly executed before their eyes in the most horrific and painful way conceivable. It was at this point that they decided on another course of action.
Naruto fought the urge to vomit as he remembered the dreadful event and thought about the up coming fight. His opponent was the only friend he had ever knew and was also reluctant to fight but when they were told if they did not fight the others would be slaughtered, true they were now hated by the rest of the half-demons for defeating them they could not let them all be murdered. Naruto and his opponent then promised each other that they would give it their all in their fight. They were often called the strongest half-demons in the fang and they had wanting to find out who was the strongest for a long time. Despite the situation, Naruto could feel himself shake with excitement at the thought of a good fight and smiled a large foxy grin showing his fangs to the darkness.
The smile dropped from his face as the doors in front of him opened with a loud grating moan. The doors opened to reveal an insanely large arena, big enough to hold a small war with out running out of space. It was a large oval shape with cast iron doors at the ends. Its walls were about as high as a house and curved in wards with long thick iron bars thrusting that stopped most of the projectile attack that went astray during the fight from hitting the audience. There was a gigantic domed roof that enclosed the arena and the stone seats, which were currently occupied by a mass of demons of different shapes and size all baying for half-demon blood. Four massive curved columns rose from edge of the seats and angled in each ending in a pointed talon of stone like massive claws were grasping the arena. Each claw had a thick steel chain leading out of the point and all connected in the center in a net like shape, above the arena floor, holding in a massive yellow crystal that was large enough to hold a small village on top of it. The crystal was the only source of light in the underground arena, like a tiny sun bathing the whole area in a ruddy yellow light that caused huge shadows to be cast on the walls.
Naruto then looked at the arena floor its self. It was a mostly flat stone field covered in a thin layer of dust and dirt that had accumulated over the years. Rocks stuck out of the floor ranging from small head sized stone to massive outcrops. Some of the rocks had formed in a number of unusual shapes such as overhangs, flat tops and a great numbers of arches grew out of the rock. The rocks were there to provide cover for the combatants, also adding more excitement to for the crowd as they watch a deadly game of cat and mouse.
(Basically it's a under ground coliseum with a few added extras)
Naruto's eyes settled on the figure at the other end of the arena. The figure started to walk towards the centre of the arena as Naruto calmly did the same. At the centre they stopped, a good ten feet away from each other, as Naruto's opponent gave a confident grin. Naruto returned the grin as he looked at his opponent and closest friend, the storm wolf Fenris.
Fenris was slightly taller than Naruto and had wider shoulders. Long shaggy black hair fell down his back while two locks fell down the sides of his face in front of his ears. His hair was pretty normal apart form the electric blue lock that streaked from the center in an unbroken line. Two long grey wolf ears framed the side of his head matching his long shaggy wolf tail that sprouted from just below his spine. Fenris had sharper features than Naruto by still had a boyish look about. His eyes, like Naruto's, were blue but instead of being the deep ocean blue his were a piercing electric blue. He wore the same head amour and control collar as Naruto except his head armor did not reach down the sides of his face but it did have a long pointed nose guard with the Fang's symbol in the center of the forehead. He wore a long grey coat Naruto but had a three metal studded belt wrapped round the bicep of his right arm. A black t-shirt could be seen from the gap of his open coat that showed that Fenris had a greater amount of upper body muscle than Naruto. An outline of a snarling wolf's head was etched onto the t-shirt in bright white lines.
Fenris wore black trousers with metal knee pads and shin guards attached to the legs. His outfit was completed by the pair of black boots with metal plates bolted to the top of the toes and feet.
They both looked at each other with identical grins on their face as, from a private box in the stadium, the Arch Demon lord stood up and address the crowd.
"Demons of the fang, today we witness…"
"Fire fox, Naruto; how've you been?" said Fenris in a friendly tone.
"Fine, you?" replied Naruto. At this distance no one in the arena could hear the conversation between the two half-demon friends.
"Ok but I'll feel better after we finish all the shit that's going to happen today. Responded Fenris as he looked around the arena.
Naruto spotted the other half demons in the crowd, who looked at him and Fenris with undisguised hate as the Arch demon continued his speech.
"Your sensei threaten to kill you if you lose as well Fenris?"
"Yep. The bastrads don't care if we did today just as long they can gain any more influence so they can become the Arch demon of this cesspit."
"Well I'm not going to lose to you. I'm going to fight you with all I have."
"Same here. This place isn't going to be my grave" Their smiles widened even more as they waited for the fight to begin.
"May the best man win" said Fenris
"May the best man win" said Naruto. They both bowed shortly to each other. They shifted around restlessly as the Arch demons speech drew to a close.
"When's old cunt custard going to finish?" asked Fenris irritable as electricity arched between his fingers before he bunched them into fists.
"Hopefully soon" said Naruto as small jets of flame shot from between his teeth as his smile became more like a smirk as Fenris and him self took their fighting stances.
Naruto took a wide stance with his left arm starched out in front of him while his right arm was out to the side and slightly higher than his head. His hands open to allow him to use his claws and spinning kicks to the best effect while Fenris stood with his left arm and foot out in front with his right arm pulled in against his side. His left foot was raised on to the ball and his arm was out bent in position to block a high or low attack.
(Standard left ju-jitsu stance. My personal favorite)
They stared each other down as Naruto mentally weighed up the factors in his head. He was smaller than Fenris, and while Fenris was not slow Naruto had a slight speed advantage over him. While he preferred to use fast claw strike and kicks, Fenris favored using crushing strikes with fists, palms, and elbows but was also likely to throw in some claw strikes as well to close the distance between him and his target. Naruto also made a note not to let Fenris get a tight grip on any part of him as he was likely to grab on not let go which would be a very bad situation as Fenris like to grapple and throws his opponents. Naruto favored using unusual fast attack to keep his opponents of balance. Then there were the half-demon powers that were surely going to be used.
"Combatants, FIGHT!" cried the Arch demon
Naruto and Fenris charged at each other. Naruto swung his right hand in an attempt to slice Fenris's face. Fenris block the attack with his left arm then slammed his fore arm in to Naruto's chest forcing him back. Naruto placed one hand on the ground behind him twisted round, balanced on one arm, and thrust his feet into Fenris's chest. Fenris flew backwards in the air before flipping over to land on his feet. He charged at Naruto, ducking down low beneath Naruto's guard before jumping up and landing a monstrous upper cut to Naruto's chin, propelling him into the air. As Naruto soared backwards Fenris grabbed one of his ankles and swung him into a tall thin rock near by. Naruto grunted in pain as his side smashed in to the rock before the out crop exploded in a mass of dust and small rock fragments.
Fenris, continuing the swing, pulled up on Naruto's leg causing to be lifted higher into the air as he brought his open hand down towards Naruto's midsection. Naruto blocked the hand and grabbed the wrist with both hands. He then brought his free foot in to line with Fenris's face. Naruto ploughed his it into Fenris's face making him let go of his leg. While in mid air Naruto used his tails to kick of the ground so, still holding his wrist, he was now directly above Fenris. Naruto smashed both his feet into Fenris's shoulders making the wolf half-demon crash down onto his back with a grunt.
On his descent Naruto pointed his elbow at Fenris's chest attempting to slam it into the wolf half-demon's ribs. Fenris quickly rolled out of the way and jumped to his feet as Naruto landed on all fours to stop him self from crashing elbow first into the floor. Naruto stood up and saw Fenris coming to wards him.
With a feral howl Fenris slammed his left knee in to Naruto's gut while he grabbed his right bicep and grasped His back with his right arm. Fenris twisted round so that his back was facing Naruto and swung his right leg straight back. Naruto lifted of the ground and twisted in mid air all the while Fenris kept a tight grip of him and guided him towards the floor. Fenris's tucked both his legs under him in mid air and landed on his knees as he used the momentum and his shoulders to drive Naruto's head and back in to the hard stone floor.
(Ju-jitsu throw. Sweeping loin, my version.)
Naruto screamed in pain as his head felt like it was full of sloshing water. Not wanting Fenris to have time to put a lock on, Naruto jammed his left thumb below Fenris' nose on the pressure point located there and forces his head back. Fenris growled as Naruto brought his left leg up and hooked it around Fenris's head and forced his down towards the floors, trapping it between his other leg applying a choke while pressing his knee into Fenris's neck. Fenris stuck his thumbs into the nerves on the inside of Naruto's leg and pushed up, freeing him self from the choke. Fenris jumped to his feet only to feel Naruto hand on his shoulder as the fire fox used him as a base to jump up and land in front on him. Fenris barley had time to put his guard up as Naruto unleashed a ferocious flurry of kicks and punches at Fenris upper body. After pummeling Fenris defense down, so that his arms hung by his sides, Naruto jumped into the air and kick Fenris squarely in the chest with his feet in a devastating drop kick.
The kick propelled Fenris violently backwards through several rocks that stuck out of the ground before smashing into a large flat sided rock making a crater in the side and kicking up a cloud of derby that obscured him from view. Naruto carefully moved to wards were Fenris had stopped.
Fenris flew out of the dusty smoke and smashed his right fist into Naruto's gut. Grabbing his right bicep in his left hand Fenris proceeded to repeatedly pummel Naruto head with his right forearm and elbow before clamping his right and around Naruto's throat. He lifted Naruto up with one arm and slammed his back and head down on to the floor. (Choke slam) Still with his hand around his neck Fenris lifted Naruto up again and threw him in to the air slightly. As Naruto fell back to the ground Fenris twisted around and slammed his left elbow into Naruto sending him flying back rolling across the floor. Naruto rolled on to his feet and took his fighting stance and face Fenris who was in his.
They were both covered in numerous scratches from being ploughed through some of the many rocks that filled the arena. Fenris was bleeding heavily form the nose from the nose where Naruto had kicked him and a small trickled of blood dripped out of the corner of his mouth. Fenris's breathing was labor evidence of the after effects of Naruto's kicks.
Naruto was also finding breathing hard. The contact with the rocks and Fenris's elbows strike had cracked at least one of his ribs but he could already feel his half-demon healing powers repairing some of the damage. Naruto felt something warm rundown the left side of his face figuring that Fenris had made him bleed above his left eye. They were about even in the amount of damage they had caused to each other.
A wide grin spread across Naruto's face.
"Enough of the warm ups. How about we get serious?" said Naruto. He clicked his fingers; suddenly his feet and hand were covers in blazing flames that made the shadows dance around him giving him sinister and deadly appearance.
"I agree. IT'S SHOWTIME." Shouted Fenris as his hand and feet, similar to Naruto's, were covered in electricity that sparked and crackled in the air emitting a bright blue light.
"Burning slash!" Roared Naruto as he whipped his right hand out in a wide arch, sending out five thin curved blades of searing fire through the air towards Fenris.
"Surging slash!" howled Fenris as he brought his right hand up in a large swipe sending out five thin crescents of writhing electricity matching Naruto's attack.
The two attacks met in mid air exploding in a mass of blinding light tearing up the ground around the impact. As the light faded Naruto and Fenris charged again at each other with burning feet and claws. They parried and ducked under each others feral attacks as they swung their claws at each other lightly slashing and cutting their arms and face as fire and lighting danced around them. Naruto brought his arms down in a burning double strike, aiming for the sides of Fenris neck. Fenris brought his arms up on the inside of Naruto's attack and knocked away his arms sending electricity painful in to Naruto's arms. Fenris head butted Naruto making his head snap back from the force of the attack. Naruto could not see Fenris bring his arms to his side before thrusting his charged palms towards Naruto's chest.
Sending two spikes of lightning trough his hands Fenris sent Naruto flying as the electricity burned and ripped his clothing. As Naruto hit the ground Fenris grinned broadly until he smelt a burning smell from between his feet. He looked down and saw that the ground and rocks in about a foot around him glowed red as smoke rose from the rocks
"Crafty beggar" said Fenris in and impressed tone. He jumped backwards just as the ground he was standing on exploded in a mass of fire and dust. Fenris escaped with just a few cuts and burns from Naruto trap but the shockwave caused to skid back painful on the rough arena floor before he stopped against a large stone.
Naruto got up in time to see Fenris jump away form his Burning coals trap and go skidding back wards before coming to a stop against a rock. Seizing the opportunity the flames engulfing Naruto's hand grew bright as he held two balls of fire in his hands. Naruto jumped to his feet and hurled one of his fire balls towards the downed Fenris. Fenris rolled quickly to the side on to his front and pushed up into the air, jumping over the fireball that was streaking through the air towards were he lying before. The rock exploded as Fenris started running around the outside of Naruto diving and weaving behind the many rocks that provided cover, as the fire fox continued to pelt the burning orbs at him, trying to make some distance to find suitable cover to plan his next move.
The area that Fenris had ran through had been reduced to a smoking waste as Naruto tried his best to keep the wolf half-demon off balance before he could launch a counter attack. Fenris dived behind a huge rock just dodging a sizzling fire ball. This was not what Naruto wanted to happen. He could not afford to lose the advantage that he held. He formed two more fireballs and pushed them together in front of him making them form one large ball of fire. The ball rested in the air hovering in front of Naruto right palms as he grabbed his wrist with the other hand. He braced him self with his tails as he pumped more energy into the fireball making it grow in size and heat until it was about five foot wide in all directions and could easily engulf grown man. With a yell Naruto released his control over the great fire ball and sent it rocketing towards where Fenris hid. The ground cracked and sagged underneath the pressure and heat forming a shallow smoldering grove in the ground as the blazing orb slammed into its target.
There was a great explosion that ripped through rock and surrounding area blasting huge chucks of jagged burning rocks high into the air before they came crashing down. The sound of the explosion and the cheers of the crowd were deafening as Naruto looked at the cloud of smoke that rose from the crackling fire that he had created convinced that he had caused a great deal of damage to Fenris. Naruto stood looking at the smoke ready for what ever came out off it while remembering something he had said that Fenris instantly agreed on. Fire attacks create to much damn smoke. Naruto was sure that Fenris was going to use the smoke for cover and strained his ears ready to detect and head of any attack.
"Shocking blades!" shouted Fenris's voice as ten bright half moon shaped crescents of lightning cut through the smoke and flew towards Naruto. The blades of electricity passed through rocks as if they were made out of air as they drew closer to Naruto. Knowing he would not be able to dodge all of them Naruto thrust out his arms with his hands open and called.
"Burning daggers!" A searing hot dagger blade of fire shot from the tips of Naruto's fingers clashing with Fenris's attack as they met. Both attacks deflected each other and flew off to the sides slicing and destroying anything in their way before burying them selves in the ground and the thick arena walls. After saving himself from being shredded Naruto looked forward to find Fenris only to see that he was not were he thought he was.
Naruto felt something hot buzz past his fox ear scorching some of his spiky hair. He turned his side to see Fenris running towards him, who clothes were covered in smoking burn marks, hurling meter long blots of blue electricity at him. Naruto jumped into the sir to dodge as bolts shot towards him with tremendous speed and force, as if they were fired for a crossbow, and stabbed into the ground and surrounding rocks creating small smoking craters. Using his agility Naruto jumped and flipped back away from Fenris narrowly dodging the bolts as the storm wolf continued to advance forwards. Naruto miss timed a jump and a bolt shot past the inside of his leg cutting his thigh but shocking the muscle in his leg. Naruto fell to one knee in pain as he tried to stop his leg form shaking from the paralysis that racked his limb. There was a crackling sound and as Naruto looked up he saw that Fenris had come to a stop. The electricity now reached up to his right should and thin whips of lightning slashed at the air and ground as Fenris charged an attack.
"Jolt" said Fenris as he thrust his palm towards Naruto. A continuous stream of blue lightning shot towards Naruto at a blinding speed. Naruto hastily raised his Hands before him a cried.
"Fire shield!" The air in front of Naruto turned in to a small shield of flames just as the lightning struck. Naruto was pushed backwards as Fenris pushed more power into the attack trying to break Naruto's shield. The attacked stopped casing Naruto to grind to a halt but not lowering his shield. Naruto breathed a sigh of relief preparing to lower his defense ready to attack. Naruto howled in pain as something covered in electricity pierce his shield and cut his right shoulder before embedding its self in a rock. Naruto looked at had hit him. It was Fenris's head armor. He had obviously stopped his attack that was draining his energy and removed his head armor, charged and hurled it at his shield forming a penetrating attack.
Naruto looked up to see Fenris dash towards him and swing an electrified foot into Naruto's chin sending Naruto backwards. As he fell Naruto removed his head amour, and mimicking what Fenris had done, covered it in fire and threw it at the wolf half-demon. Fenris side stepped the attack but not enough to completely avoid it as it sliced his side as it flew past him causing the flesh to blister painfully and inflame.
Naruto sucked in a great lung full of air arching backwards before exhaling it sending of a roaring wave of fire that engulfed and burning everything in its path as it bore down on Fenris. Fenris focused his electricity on the tips of his index and middle fingers and swung his hand in a wide arch. A two inch thick glowing whip of electricity snapped out from his fingers as it cut through the fire wall that threatened to destroy him. He swung his whip in many directions effectively reducing Naruto's attack into a few harmless embers.
A fireball hurtled towards Fenris who just moved his head to the side avoiding a direct hit. Naruto dashed towards him and slashed his burning claws at his face. Fenris got his left arm up in time to block the attack but Naruto's claws cut his arm leaving huge gashes in it. Naruto snarled as he swung his other hand at Fenris's face. Fenris slammed his arm against Naruto's armored forearm grunting in pain as his flesh met metal. Fenris ploughed his right knee into Naruto middle bending to fire fox over. Fenris wrapped his right arm around Naruto's head in a head lock, sending electricity into him to keep distract from what was happening, as he gripped the top of his trousers with the other hand. He threw his legs forwards as he drove Naruto's head in to floor kicking his legs over as he went. (Rice bale throw/DDT) there was a sickening thud as Naruto's head hit the floor and blood flowed freely from a large cut on his forehead.
Naruto numbly felt his back hit the ground after his head had slammed into the floor. He instinctively realized what move Fenris was using. He had to get out of it! Fenris, still holding Naruto, rolled over to stand him and Naruto back up with the hold firmly in place. Before he was drove back into the floor Naruto snapped his arm into Fenris crotch. Fenris double over in pain, clutching his groin, as Naruto broke free from the hold and stood the side. Naruto rammed his knee into the chest of Fenris making him stand up screaming in pain. Naruto jumped up in the air and delivering a right jumping round house kick with a burning foot into Fenris face.
Fenris flew backwards slamming into the arena wall causing a net of crack to form behind him. Lightning crackled around him as he stood up.
"That was a good move Naruto. How use the fangs?" asked Fenris as he wiped the blood that flowed from his mouth.
"Ok then if you want to be ripped to shreds." said Naruto as a large foxy grin spread across his face.
They both jumped up high into the air.
"Shocking fang!" roared Fenris
"Burning fang!" Roared Naruto. They both span into air turning into twin whirlwinds of claws wreathed in lightning and fire. (Like Kiba's attack except with a fire and Lightning)
They shot towards each and collided in the air making fire and electricity flash were they met. They both span of into different directions cutting into the ground before turning around to smash into each other again. They proceeded to clash and fly from each other several times, carving teaches in the floor and shattering rock with the force of the fire and lighting, until they struck each other head on. The fire and Lightning mixed in sphere of destructive light before expanding in a huge expulsion of force. As the light faded the audience saw what had happened to the fighters.
Fenris stood up with Naruto's legs clamped around his waist in a vice like grip while he had his left arm behind Naruto's head and his right arm grabbing his left and applied a bar choke, they were covered in many scratches and burn but paid them no heed as they tried to stop each other from breathing. Naruto reached with his hand and attempted to break the lock as he tried to crush Fenris's sides. Naruto increased the heat of his fire on his hands and legs making Fenris scream in pain but he refused to release the choke. Fenris then sent a mass of electricity through his left hand into the back of Naruto's head making the blonde howl in agony.
This was getting them now where. They both almost had the same tolerance for pain and they would pass out from lack of air soon anyway thought Naruto. He had little hope of Fenris letting go, although the wolf half-demon was more strategic than Naruto he was incredible stubborn in a fight a live by the philosophy of 'why let go of a good lock?' Naruto unwrapped his burning legs and placed them just above Fenris's legs. Using the fire on his feet he pushed off, making Fenris break the hold, and somersaulted high into the air. Fenris stumble back placing his hands onto of the new burns as he glared at Naruto. Naruto grinned at Fenris as he began his descent to the ground. Using the fact that Fenris's mobility was lower Naruto pointed his hand, with closed fingers, like a spear head at the Strom wolf. "Burning dagger!" barked Naruto as a huge burning dagger, about the width of his hand, shot towards Fenris.
Fenris smirked as the attack cut towards him. Electricity shot from his feet all the way up his legs as he seemed to slide his feet to the side dodging the burning dagger as it penetrated the ground making a deep straight sided hole with flames belching from inside of it. Fenris pulled his right back and low down as he pumped more power into that hand.
"Shocking blade!" roared Fenris as he swung his arm out sending a huge spinning crescent of lightning at Naruto. The attack looked big enough to cut him in half. Naruto twisted and flipped in mid air just maneuvering himself over the attack it shot underneath him and flew across the arena slicing half way through the iron bars, which were designed to block attacks that went a stray, leaving an orange glowing rent in the metal.
Naruto landed just in time to have Fenris administer a right electrified side kick to his chin. The force was unbelievable, Naruto was sent through the air once more and crashed into the iron bars that Fenris's attack had hit. Normal Naruto would have pain hit the bars and slid back into the arena but because of Fenris's 'Burning blade' Naruto carried on through the bars as they snapped of, leaving stumpy metal pole where they once stood, and landed in the seats. Naruto found him self being given a wide birth from the demons as they cheered for more blood and violence.
Naruto got to his feet and saw Fenris standing, with a huge grin despite the amount of injuries he had received, on the remains of the section of bars holding on to one the cut bars that had not fallen. There was a horrible sound of twisting metal as Fenris pull and turned the bar he was holding and tore it free holding it in both hand. Seeing what was about to happen, Naruto quickly grabbed one of the bars that had fallen beside him and raised it above his head as Fenris jumped from his perch and brought his pole swing down in the direction of Naruto's head.
The two rods clanged together as Naruto stopped Fenris's attack. Still with their metal staffs pressed against each other Naruto stood up and looked Fenris in the face. Blood covered his face like some sort of hideous mask but what made it even more chilling that the wolf half-demon had a feral grin plastered across his face. Naruto looked him in the eyes and smiled back. Naruto pushed Fenris away and took a ready stance as Fenris, who had recovered from his push, assumed a similar stance. They stood looking at each other as Naruto metal staff began to glow white while white wisps of smoke raised its length. Fenris's staff then stared to crackle as electricity ran un and down it and arched when it reached the tip.
They swung their staffs at each other as the demonic crowd edge backwards to give them more room to fight. The two rods meet with a ferocious clash as sparks of lightning and fire flew off were they met. Naruto and Fenris battled each other with their weapons using wide swings, low sweeps, fast stabs and powerful over head strikes all the while sending bright sparks flying in the air as they blocked and parried each other's strikes. Although neither of them had landed a hit on the other yet Naruto was being push back towards one of the four columns by Fenris, who brought his greater upper body strength to bear. Not wanting to get pinned up against a hard object Naruto bent his legs and jumped over Fenris turning in the air to face him as he turned round.
Fenris watch Naruto perform this amazing display of acrobatics simple waited for the right moment and swung his staff with all his might at Naruto as he go neared to the floor. Naruto raised his staff in both hand to block the attack but the enormous force of it flung straight through gap in the fence, over the entire arena floor , over the opposite sides fence and back first into one of the column. Needless to say ever one was shocked by this display of strength from a half-demon, even Fenris but he did not show it.
Naruto got up, shaking form the impact, and looked at Fenris. An unspoken agreement past between the two of them, as they dropped their iron staffs and quickly clawed their way up the columns behind them on to the thick chains above. They ran along the chain, taking every chance they took to throw fire and lightning at each other, as they came closer to the great glowing crystal that hung above the arena. As they set foot on the ruddy yellow stone, Naruto and Fenris lunged at each other. Their fists met in the middle of the crystal in a blazing light of fire and lightning until they both jumped back panting heavily. Fenris growled at Naruto as he ran at him and swung his leg out at him. Naruto ducked the attack only to have Fenris carry the kick on and bring the heel of his other foot into his face making Naruto stumble back.
Fenris then shoulder tackled Naruto sending him back, about twenty feet from the edge of the stone. Fenris threw a right punch at Naruto only to have him grab his in both of his twist round and fling Fenris over his back making the wolf half-demon slide dangerous close to edge and the huge drop beneath them. Fenris sprang to his feet and saw Naruto charge towards him with his fist at his side ready to hit him. When Naruto threw his punch Fenris side stepped the attack and clamped his right hand around the back of Naruto's head and twisted around to face the edge and chuck Naruto head first off the crystal. (Shades of Mankind vs. Undertake hell in a cell)
The crowd cheered as Naruto plummeted towards the ground. Tears streamed from his eyes as he saw the floor coming towards him, he was going to land directly in the middle of the fire he had made with his giant fireball. His fire! Naruto twisted so that his back now faced the ground and he saw Fenris looking over the edge of the crystal at him. Perfect. Focusing on the fire below his Naruto summoned up a huge pillar of fire that raced up and hit the fire fox in the back. Naruto did not fall through the fire as is slowed his falls down to the ground. Naruto whipped his arms forwards and send two smoking balls of fire, summoned form the inferno below, at Fenris. The two balls hit the section of crystal beneath Fenris giving way and making the Storm wolf fall as well.
Fenris stuck his left arm out towards the crystal and lines of lightning jumped from the crystal and into him. Naruto was performing a similar feat as they fell. Naruto called up some of the fire from the below and hand it gather in front of his out stretched hands which were aimed at Fenris. The lightning ran across Fenris shoulders into his right arm which was now glowing with bright white electricity as it crackled and jumped around him. He pointed his hand at Naruto.
"Fire blast!" bellowed Naruto as he sent a massive tongue of explosive fire, that seemed to scorch the air its self, towards Fenris.
"Grand lightning!" shouted Fenris as he sent a massive lighting bolt, that arched and cracked the air, towards Naruto.
The two attacks crashed into each other in a huge explosion, a great deal larger than any of the others before it, that filled the arena with a blinding light that made most of the demons present cover shield their eyes with their hands and arms.
Onaga and Fenris's sensei sat in the Arch Demon lords box watching in shock as their lowly half-demon charges utilize powerful attacks that they were never taught or allowed to learn. Their thoughts were interrupted by an emotionless voice.
"How is it that two half-demons can use such powerful attacks even thought it was my clear orders that were not to learn anything like them?" Onaga and his companion turn round to look into the cold stare of the Fang's Arch Demon lord. A chill ran down their spines as he turned slightly to one of his guards. "I want those two dissected after the fight had concluded. I want to know how then can wield such power that should be beyond them."
Naruto and Fenris hit the ground hard in crumpled heaps. After painfully pulling them selves up they looked at each other across the arena, which by now had great chunks ripped out of it and as covered in burns and holes caused by fire and lightning. Naruto's breathing was raged and strained and he could Fenris was in the same condition. They were low on power and blood. It was time to end this.
"Fenris, let finish this with out next attacks." Naruto called to the battered wolf half-demon.
"It's time for the finale curtain" agreed Fenris with a grin. Naruto held his right arm to hid side with his hand out flat and fingers together. He poured all but the last amount of power into hi arm as Fenris did the same. His arm burst into fire raging all the way up to his shoulder and flaring off five feet into the air. The fire formed a deadly point an inch in front of his middle finger. Fenris had also done the same with lightning crackling around his arm. Pain racked Naruto's arm as he tried to contain the massive amount of power he was holding at the tip. Fenris was also suffering from the same problem when he spoke.
"Naruto, it's been fun, see you on the other side." Said Fenris in a cheerful voice.
"See you on the other side Fenris" replied Naruto. They charged at each other for the last time. The ground and few remaining rocks cracked and shattered as they brought their attacks forwards to strike. They leaped into the air as their left hands dived into their coats. They thrust their right hands at each other throats in an attempt to kill the other instantly. For the last time in the Undercity of the Fang a bright light, created from when fire and lightning met, blazed briefly into existence obscuring the two half-demons from the crowds view. When the light finally faded all that remain were two broken control collars that clanged on to the ground before resting on top each other in silent arena.
Chapter one end.
Holy shit. I seem to write more with each story. This one took along time to get done and it was only the first chapter. spoiler don't worry Fenris and Naruto are not dead. I will reveal what happened in the next chapter.
It is ten to two in the morning for me so I'm not reading though this. I would like to hear what you thought about this one. Especially the fight, was it to long boring, exiting, I want to hear. I would also love some suggestions for where to go with the story. I have to next few chapters planned out but if any comes up with anything good I will use it and give that person credit. I would like some suggestions for attack that Naruto and Fenris can use later on. Once again I have some ideas put input would be great.
If any one wants me two I will write a list of all the techniques used in this chapter with explanations and what I based them on.
I hope you like this one. Thank you for reading.
The sweeping loin is a hip throw done with sweeping the out side leg backwards. The thrower should remain standing after the throw. But I'm not very big and some times lose my balance doing this throw (mostly on my dad who is a black belt). What has happened is that I some how tuck both my legs under as I throw some one the result is the throw is wrong but I my shoulders are about 6 inches of the floor or mat when I do the throw making it hard to break fall from. Even thought it is incorrect I quite like the way I do it when I mess up (although don't actively try to do it this way) so that is why I called it "my version" in the story.
I won't tell you what a DDT is. ( watch some wrestling to find out) the rice bale throw is a throw from ju-jitsu that looks like a DDT but you kick your opponents legs over and not drive their head into the floor. For this story Fenris will use a modified version of these throws driving the head into the floor while kick the legs over so that he can keep hold and roll over to stand back up ready to do it again.
