"W-where are you taking me…" Naruto tried to ask, even though he understood that she couldn't understand him. He was also surprisingly calm, perhaps from the shock. Louise looked at him, but didn't care to give an answer. She dragged her familiar up the stairs and into the girls dormitory. Dirty looks from the manager of the dorm were given, but Louise smoothly explained that he was her familiar and with that. There was no longer any problems.
Each step felt heavy for her, and came with a heartfelt sigh, "I'm going to be wedded to some fat bard. That's what all the useless nobles do. Is that my fate?" she asked herself. She finally reached the front of her door and opened it. Naruto stumbled in like some lost animal she picked up from the woods. All this design is really new with him. This whole world is new to him. The only similarity would be the Chakra levels of the so called magicians.
"Hey…" Naruto tried to make conversation with Louise who was preoccupied with being depressed. He wanted to communicate with her but it was impossible if they can't even understand each other. His desperation to talk out-weighed everything in his mind. As of why? He didn't know. It could be because she was in distress and wanted to help. Is it his inner-hero taking over again? It is…he could feel it.
Louise forces herself to sit up, hugging her gigantic pink plushy tightly and glares at the man in front of him, "What do you want? Do you want to talk…? Well…" she thought about, "Colber-sensei did say I have to finish this task first. But that would require…" she blushed, "No…it's not embarrassing. You're just some slave for me after-all…yes. This is perfectly normal."
She pushes her adorable plushy aside and stood in front of Naruto. Now that she's so close to him…
She shake her emotions aside but the blush on her face could still be seen easily, "Oh god. He's just a familiar…there's nothing I should be ashamed of!" she swallowed hard after taking one more look before she presses her lips on the bewildered Naruto. Naruto, stunned by her sudden action nearly fell to the floor, but Louise held him tightly. There was a small carving pasted over his forearm, like some sick tattoo written in unknown language.
This feeling. It felt oddly right for Naruto and sooner than later. He was the one in control. Louise slips a light moan through the thick of their kiss but Naruto carried on, squeezing her shoulders, as if, reassuring her that everything would be alright.
The two finally break off, catching needed breaths, but not removing their eyes from each other. Louise felt melted and needed a solid minute to gather herself together, "Happy now? You should be able to understand me."
Naruto's eyes lit up, "You don't say…" he smiled, "Why did you bring me here Louise?" It was something he needed to know, "As of right now. You have a hero with you."
"A hero?" Louise looked confuse, "Uhm, you're no hero. You're my familiar. A typical commoner."
"Or…so you would think?" He did some hand signs and showed two of himself. Louise looked shock, he didn't have a wand and for some reason, she felt a little tired. It must be because she did a lot of magic today. She closed up her magical ties to her body before observing Naruto but at the same time. The clone Naruto magnificently conjured, disappeared as if not existing, "What the…?" Naruto looked confusing before noticing a drain in his body. He fell to the floor harshly and didn't look like he was getting up.
Louise looked a little worried, "Are you okay?!" she asked, dragging his head to her lap, "You were just arrived. You must be tired from that space-time dimension traveling."
"Nonsense." Naruto dismissed, "It's my Chakra, for some reason. It stopped." He thought carefully. His existence was starting to fade. His smooth skin and yellow hair was evaporating into nothing. At crucial moments like this. Naruto is brilliant. He comes up with a quick hypothesis, "You're magic ties. Did you cut them?!"
Louise looked confused, "I-I don't see where your going with this…"
"Just put them back on!" Naruto demanded, feeling a painful sting spreading throughout his body, "Hurry…"
Louise closed her eyes and opened her magical ties once more and the flow of magic transferred into Naruto. His transparent self started to regenerate and he felt normal again. The feeling of disappearing still lingered around the room, "You're a familiar that completely relies on my magic?"
Naruto shook his head, drenched in sweat, "No, but in my world. You're magic is what we call Chakra and since I don't belong here. The only thing keeping me here is your Chakra. In other words you're correct but once I make a mark on this world. I will be able to generate my own Chakra and live a sole being."
"You didn't have to point that out…" Louise said, but Naruto glared at her, unlike his normal self, "I just don't want you thinking I rely on you. Maybe for now, but I can stand on my own two feet soon enough."
"Hey…" Louise tried to argue back but the intensity from Naruto prevented her. It didn't take long for him to realize it but he returned to normal soon enough, "I'm sorry…" he looked embarrassingly away from her, "I didn't mean to freak out. I just became so independent these pass few years that I don't know what it's like to rely on someone again."
"You're my familiar…" Louise pointed out, "If you have no one you can rely on then count on your master. I would never abandon you."
"Sakura-" Naruto cuts his words in half, almost saying the name of someone he longed adored, "I mean…I never got your name."
"Louise Françoise le Blanc de La Vallière" Louise ignored the part when he said another girls name, but she was still curious, "This Sakura, is she a girl you like?" Naruto looked at her, he felt as if another source of energy was draining. Like somewhere in his heart, a place he kept locked up since his two best friends got married, "Liked" Naruto corrected her, "She's no longer in my heart…."
"That c-can't be true."
"And what makes you so sure?"
"I can see it all over your face. You're heads over heels for this girl."
Naruto felt like crying but he ran out of tears a long time ago, "Sometimes, when you feel pain, you must bare with it."
"…or" Louise continued on with what he was saying, "…or, you can find someone else to love."
Naruto looked at her carefully, not understanding her point, "And what do you suppose, Louise Françoise le Blanc de La Vallière?"
Louise was amazed he was able to learn her full name after hearing it only once, "I'm not sure, but as your master, I want you to be happy…"
"So you do have a heart…" Naruto laughed, and Louise blushed, looking away, "It's not that. I'm just concerned over you…slave…"
Naruto chuckled. He knows when someone means what they say. He knows it all too well, as a young child, he learned true hatred. It wasn't the case when it came to her. She might have a tough front but there's a soft, cuddly goodness inside her.
It was starting to get dark as the two got ready for the night, "So you weren't joking about being a hero, right?"
"That's right." Naruto assured her, "I'm 100% a hero if I have Chakra."
"Then, you wouldn't mind using my Chakra to display your strength at tomorrow's show and tell, right?"
"Yea, no problem, wait what? Show and tell?!"
