A/N Grenfell here, I have decided to play around with this story idea in some downtime between life and writing my Uzu story, so I'm not entirely sure how this one will shape out. This will be a strong Naruto story and it is a three-way pairing of Walter/Naruto/Schrödinger. Beyond this I hope people enjoy this product of my mad imagination.
"Grenfell does not own Naruto or Hellsing"
7 years after the Kyuubi attack
Konohagakure
'Why, why, leave me alone!' were the thoughts of a young seven year old Uzumaki Naruto. Ever since he was kicked out of the orphanage a two years ago, he had been chased around and beaten by drunken villagers. Tonight was simply another night in hell for the young Uzumaki, as he found himself running into another corner. He prepared for the usual beating, knowing that soon he would be waking up in the hospital once again, to find the Old Man just looking down at him from a chair sadly. The villagers began to slowly approach the boy, with sick grins etched upon their faces.
Afterlife
"That. is. IT!" shouted a heavenly voice. The voice belonged a beautiful young woman with snow white hair, tan skin and pure white eyes. She wore extravagant white robes with gold lining.
Next to her was what appeared to be her exact opposite. This woman had black hair, pale skin, and pitch black eyes. She wore extravagant black robes with red lining.
Finally across from both of these figures, stood the Shinigami, purple face etched into a frown as he stared down at the child being beaten.
"I agree sister dear." The black haired being stated, "And I have just the agent in mind to fix this issue, The betrayer, who regrets."
The white haired being nodded slowly, "He would certainly be able to protect him but the child needs something more, what about, The loyal cat?"
Before the black haired being could give a response the Shinigami reached a hand into his stomach, "Just shut up you two, I'll give both the souls over for this job, there will be conditions however." The Divine being looked slightly shocked, 'usually he is rather apathetic towards human suffering, I wonder if it has to do with the seal.' they thought to themselves before eagerly nodding.
"Their lives will be bound to the boy's, they will only remember their; skills, personality, and mission. Lastly you two can not use them to influence your own will on creation, agreed?" The Shinigami stated as he drew out two bright round orbs from his stomach.
The white haired deity quickly nodded affirmatively, while her dark haired counterpart seemed to be struggling for a second before sighing, "I promise not to use the agent to enforce my will."
The Shinigami nodded and made sure to allow his counterparts an opportunity to alter the souls for the agreed conditions and to make sure they would be equipped enough to handle the immediate situation. Finally he thrust the souls through the mirror and prepared to watch his newest form of entertainment as his work was protected.
Konohagakure
Naruto found himself nailed to a cross with kunai stuck through both his hands. A villager slowly began to approach with a small oil can in his hand, "You are going to burn now Demon, I hope it is painful." the man stated.
Just as the man was about to pour the oil on the beaten seven year old, Naruto could see a small glint pass through the air right before the man's hand fell off, spraying blood all over the young Uzumaki. The man screamed as a youthful, slightly insane laugh could be heard from the other end of the alley.
At the end of the alley stood two black clad figures. The one on the left was 5' 1'' and appeared to be wearing the traditional Konoha Chunin attire, colored black with a black beret eschewed on his blonde hair, "Zat vas zimply magnificent Butler!" the young blonde stated as his magenta eyes stared at the crucified child darkly.
On the right side was a pale skinned black haired young man standing at 5' 10''. He wore a black colored Chunin attire that appeared to have a pair of cloth strips tailing out behind him. He was wearing black fingerless gloves and was smoking a lit cigarette. Behind him Naruto noticed slight glints every time one of his fingers twitched, "Keep talking cat and I'll take your fuckin' head next, understood?"
"Oh my, ver is all zis 'ostility coming from Butl.." The blonde boy started before a glint etched across his neck. To the shock of the previously stunned mob the black haired boy had carried out his threat as the blonde haired boy fell to the ground, his head rolling towards them.
"You, boy! Just who are you, and what are you doing here?!" shouted one particularly brave villager.
The young man stared at the mob hatefully as he took a drag on his cigarette. He slowly tightened his fingerless gloves onto his hands and flicked his wrists, "I don't have to explain myself to child beating trash like yourselves."
Naruto watched as the glinting wires began taking apart the mob, quickly making quick work of the bigoted villagers. Before he knew it he felt someone trying to remove the Kunai in his left hand, looking over he received an even bigger shock.
"Vow zey really got theze things stuck in here, ya?" The formerly dead blonde questioned as he tugged on the kunai.
Naruto stared back in shock, forgetting about his pain as he stuttered, "Y... y.. you were dead!" he shouted as he looked towards where the young boy's body lay, only to find it mysteriously missing, "W.. what?"
The blonde smirked to himself, "I am everyvhere and novhere." he stated as he finally removed the kunai and gently set Naruto against the alley's wall.
As the black haired teen approached, Naruto couldn't help but ask, "Jus.. just who are you two, why are you helping me?"
The blonde jumped into his face, slightly scaring the Uzumaki, "I am ze cat that can go anywhere, Schrödinger!" he shouted, right before he was kicked away by the black haired one's boot.
The teen stared down at Naruto with what appeared to be pity, before taking another drag on his cigarette and flicking it to the ground, "fucking cat." he muttered, "Anyways, I am Walter C. Dolneiz, also known as the Butler or the Angel of Death."
the now named Walter took out another cigarette to smoke on as he explained the situation to the best of his ability, "All I know is that when we appeared, I felt the need to protect you and I assume the same can be said for the fucking cat over there." Naruto looked to see Schrödinger nodding his head emphatically.
Naruto was about to speak more before the pain that his body was in made itself known once more. As he winced a shadow descended upon the trio, "Do you mind telling me, why your are surrounded by the bodies of my villagers and why you are standing in front of a hurt Naruto-kun." questioned an elderly voice.
Walter looked up to see an elderly man wearing a white and red robe with a similarly colored hat on his head, flanking him were 4 masked figures wearing black, hooded robes.
Naruto saw Walter's fingers begin to twitch and quickly spoke up to stop his new friends from being hurt, "Wai.. Wait Jiji, these two helped me!" he gasped out, the pain in his chest making it difficult.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked down at the injured boy sadly, 'if the culprits for his condition weren't these two then it was most likely the villagers, I truly have failed you Minato."
Hiruzen, "Tora, Neko, please take Naruto-kun to the hospital for treatment, guard him until he is better." The named ANBU quickly nodded as they utilized Shunshin to grab Naruto and move off to the hospital.
"And where the fuck do you think you are taking the kid, geezer?" Walter asked agitatedly.
The old Hokage looked down at the belligerent teen with a slight smile, "Naruto-kun needed medical attention, we are ensuring he gets it." he explained, "Now if you two would please follow me to my office, I have some questions to ask you regarding your association with Naruto."
Walter frowned but slowly nodded.
Hiruzen was happy at the young man accepted and looked to address the blonde. However, as he looked around he could find no trace of the boy, "Where did your friend go?" he questioned.
Sarutobi could hear the growl that emanated from the black haired teen, "That fucking cat is not my goddamned friend." he stated before taking a drag on his cigarette to calm down, "and he likely went to visit Naruto, he will most likely meet up with us at your office."
Hiruzen briefly wondered how the young boy would find his office but shrugged, figuring he could send an ANBU for him later.
Hokage Tower
As the Hokage and Walter walked into the older man's office they were met with Schrödinger playing with his beret, cat like ears twitching from on top of his head. Hiruzen could feel his jaw drop as he began wondering how the cat like boy, had gotten past his security, while Walter merely face palmed at the stupidity of his colleague.
"H...how?" he questioned.
Schrödinger chuckled, "I am everyvhere and novhere" As he laughed at his own joke, he quickly found his head falling off his shoulders again.
Hiruzen stared in shock as the blood began to cover his desk, before glaring angrily at the teen next to him, "Why on earth did you just kill that boy?" he began to question, his killing intent flooding the room.
Walter stared blankly at the Hokage, barely affected by his killing intent as he pointed behind the Kage.
Hiruzen was confused by the gesture before he heard it, "Vould you stop slicing off my head! It really hurtz" stated the heavily accented voice.
Sarutobi quickly spun around to see the previously dead boy whistling innocently behind him. He looked back at his desk only to see it perfectly clean, not a single speck of blood on it's surface.
The old Kage quickly grabbed his pipe and took a few calming puffs on it, "I swear, that child is going to be the death of me. Now would you two please tell me what you are doing here and why you rescued Naruto-kun?"
Walter and Schrödinger shared a look, "We don't know how we got here, we just appeared and had an overwhelming desire to help the boy." Walter calmly stated.
Hiruzen stared at the two intently before finally sighing, "You don't appear to be lying, but we shall have a Yamanaka check your mind to be sure." As he received two hesitant nods he continued, "If everything checks out then I would like to assign you two as shinobi under my command, with the express mission of guarding Naruto-kun, is this acceptable?"
Schrödinger instantly began nodding his head. Walter on the other hand appeared to be thinking it over, "Will we be paid as well?" he questioned.
The Sandaime nodded, "You will receive the equivalent of a C rank mission pay every week, so long as he is safe, which should be more than enough for you to live off of."
Walter nodded his head, "Very well, I think we have living arrangements taken care of already, so long as this shit hold sells cigarettes, I should be fine here."
Hiruzen chuckled, knowing how aggravating a lack of nicotine could be. He tossed the two young men Konoha hita-ates, "I officially welcome you to the Konoha Shinobi Force, usually you would have to go through the academy, especially at your age, but you appear to be skilled enough already and you will be working directly under me rather than within the shinobi system itself."
Walter simply nodded as he tied the headband to his left arm.
Schrödinger tied his to his right arm before something caught his attention, "Vait, vait, vait. Did you zay Shinobi? zis is soo cool, ve get to be ninjaz Butler. Izn't zat awesome?!" he began to rant into the aggravated teen's ear.
"Why don't you go bug Naruto, while I go set up our sleeping arrangements, eh Cat." he stated as his finger's started to twitch, 'I really want to decapitate him again, but we should really make sure the kid is alright.'
Konoha Hospital
As Naruto rested on a bed in his hospital room, deep within the recesses of his mind an enormous, single red eye opened from behind a long line of metal bars, "So that damned Cat and the Traitor are here, well I suppose the following years just might provide a bit of entertainment." a malicious sounding voice echoed as it let out an insane cackle.
A/N Alright, so let me say that I'm am not entirely a fan of including divine beings, especially when they are barely defined in the universe that I am working with, so with that in mind, this is the last we shall be seeing of all of them (at least until Shinigami is summoned again). As for the two characters having the gear they do, simply put Divine being did it to make them fit in better while still being comfortable. Again this is more a side project, though if people really enjoy it I may put more time into it.
I hope you enjoyed the story!
