**Chapter Two**

**Thirteen Years Later**

Walking down the busy streets, Naruto Uzumaki walked with his hands in his pockets as he had a easy going and calm smile on his face as he watched as people all around him rushed to either go to work or to get to school.

Naruto had grown into a strong young man as he stood at a respectable six foot three with a lean yet muscular build meant for both physical strength and for speed. His hair had grown longer and had short bangs framing each side of his face and his skin color had now darkened from being slightly pale to being lightly tanned.

Since he was introduced to the former Dragon King Tannin thirteen years ago much had happened. His training with Tannin had taken up most of his time when he was younger and he had spent most of his time up until he was thirteen with the purple dragon.

His mother Ophis had shifted her time between him and a group she had created which she had called the Khaos Brigade. Naruto knew the Khaos Brigade was set up to help her take down Great Red but he was surprised when his mother told him it was full of people who were Fallen Angels, Angels, descendants of powerful past figures, stray devils etc. He had never met any members of the Khaos Brigade himself but he knew eventually he would. Though his mother said she had a few favorites from the Khaos Brigade, he had a feeling many of them were not in it to help rid of Great Red but instead to fulfill their own goals.

Though his mother was the one that formed the group, he just had an uneasy feeling from them and that something told him his mother was not seeing or was dismissing.

When he was thirteen his mother had told him he would be spending his time in the human world so that he could get the human experience that she had when she visited the Human world all those centuries ago and still visited to this day. He had argued with her at first but eventually he gave in. Since most needed a last name in the Human world he chose Uzumaki. When Ophis asked why he just shrugged saying Maelstrom spiral sounded pretty cool.

Since then he moved permanently to the Human world but since his mother taught him how to teleport he could visit Tannin but not his mother. She really was too mysterious and odd most times but Ophis told him that she would check on him from time to time but her time was mostly taken with the Khaos Brigade and who knows what else. Though she visits the human world, she vowed not to directly interfere in it.

The school he was attending was called Kuoh Academy. Today was in fact his first day at said school since he kept feeling himself drawn to it for unknown reasons. So he enlisted a transfer and Kuoh became his new school.

Kuoh was formerly an all girls private school but recently it had turned co-ed and began allowing boys to being studying there. From what he read up about the place it, many of its students did very well and went on to follow great career paths. That he actually liked since he took it studies quite seriously since he was a smart person.

He loved to read and to write, something he enjoyed since he was at a young age. He was even working on a story in his spare time since writing a book was something he had always wanted to do.

His school uniform now consisted of a black blazer with white accents, a white, long-sleeved dress shirt with a black ribbon on the collar, matching black pants, and brown dress shoes.

'_This uniform is kind of uncomfortable.'_ He thought as he pulled on the collar of his shirt.

Though he was fine with dressing smartly when the occasion came, he preferred simple clothes which to him were simple shirts, jeans and boots.

As he walked down the streets he noticed a few of the women that passed him by give him quite lustful looks and many were ogling his form.

It was not long before he eventually found himself outside the gate of Kuoh Academy. The Academy was very nice and had an illustrious feel and look to it. It had cobbled paths and even had a water fountain in the centre of the courtyard in the front of the school. There was a main building in the centre of the campus which was the main faculty building with various smaller buildings around it provided for the large number of students it had.

"Pretty nice. Humans do make some nice stuff when they put their mind to it." he said before he walked in.

As soon as he did it went mostly quiet as the other students noticed him walk in and wondered who he was.

The boys were all thinking who the new pretty boy was and whether they should rough him up since he was the newbie at school. The girls however were the complete opposite and were happily voicing his opinion.

"Oh my god who is that?"

"He is such a hunk."

"Look at that body. Look at those arms."

"Do you think he had noticed me?"

Naruto played it cool and simply ignored them though inside it made him feel a little nervous. He had not had much experience with girls other than his mother. At his other school he mostly kept to himself, never really making friends. He guessed his mothers trait of enjoying the quiet and being alone passed on to him in a way.

When he went inside the main building to pick up his time table, many of the girls had rushed to follow him since they wanted to find out who he was, what class he was in and most important whether they had a chance with him.

He picked it up from the woman at the school office and was annoyed that even she was blushing and giving him a predator like look.

"3A, where is 3A." He muttered as he walked down the corridors as many other students began piling into their classroom. After another minute he found his room and walked in.

When he the classroom was completely full with only one spare desk which no doubt was for him.

"Ahh Mr. Uzumaki I presume?" A man in his thirties said as he shook Naruto's hand.

"That's me. Sorry if I'm a bit late. Trying to find my way around here."

The teacher Mr. Asama spoke to the class briefly. "Everyone I would like you to welcome Mr. Uzumaki who has joined Kuoh academy today and will be with us for the rest of the year."

"It's nice to meet you all. I hope we get along." Naruto said giving them all a small bow.

"Mr. Uzumaki why don't you take your desk , it is just besides Miss Himejima." He said as Naruto nodded and walked towards his seat.

When he sat down he looked to the girl whose name the teacher spoke and unknowingly blushed when he saw her.

She was incredibly beautiful, easily one of the most beautiful girls he had ever seen. She was a buxom young woman with long black hair and violet eyes and creamy colored skin. Her hair was being tied in a long ponytail, reaching all the way down to her legs with two antennae sticking out from the top and sloping backwards, with an orange ribbon keeping it in place.

He then blushed a little more when she turned to look at him. Seeing his red face she laughed a little into her hand before extending to him.

"Hello my name is Akeno Himejima. Welcome to Kuoh Academy." she said politely.

Getting over his redness he smiled at her in return and shook her hand which was very smooth. "I'm Naruto Uzumaki, it's nice to meet you Akeno-san."

As they shook hands, Naruto suddenly felt her energy and recognized that it was not one of a normal human. Though he had never met a devil before, that was the feeling he got from her when he shook her hand. She even felt a little like a fallen angel which he also had never met before.

_'A devil going to this school huh? Guess I cannot complain. This could be rather interesting.'_ He thought before he grinned a little and focused on the teacher at the front of the class.

**Later On**

Naruto sat quietly underneath one of the tree's in the school courtyard as he ate his packed lunch he made himself earlier that morning. Since he lived on his own cooking was one thing he quickly took upon himself to learn and found he was actually pretty good at it. When his mother visited him she complemented his cooking and even Tannin on the rare occasion that the Dragon visits him in his miniature form said his cooking skills were very good.

He was sitting on his own since one he was the new and had no friends at the time being, and second was to get away from the crazy horde of girls that kept following him round the school.

'_The school seems pretty nice so far. Though the girls here are fucking insane. I have only been here a day and they are already throwing themselves at me. I'm not sure whether I should feel blessed or slightly worried for my safety.'_

As he sat eating his lunch he heard the sounds of giggling coming from behind one of the bushes outside the building that held the Kendo club.

Getting up he went to investigate and found three boys peeking through the window each giggling rather perversely and were wiping away small trails of blood from their noses.

When he went to see what they were looking at he saw that through the window were the girls of the Kendo club all getting changed. Half of which were now only in their bras and panties.

His eyes narrowed towards the boys. If there was one thing he hated, it was perverts.

A growl ripped from his throat causing the three boys to freeze in their spots.

When the trio turned around they suddenly felt their collars being grabbed and found them being lifted off the ground and being pinned against the wall. The girls form the Kendo club heard the slam and went to investigate. They found Naruto pinning the three boys against the wall, all three with a scared look on their faces.

"So you three thought it would be okay to watch the lovely girls of the Kendo club get changed did you? Do the three of you have an ounce of respect for women since clearly your lust seems to be your main way of thinking." He growled out.

As he said that the Kendo girls got angry looks on their faces and went inside to grab their kendo sticks.

Naruto demanded the trio to tell him their names which they quickly complied to. The trio were Issei Hyoudou, Matusuda and Motohama.

"So you three are the perverted trio of Kuoh. Believe it or not I heard about you three from my old school and how many girls there wanted to beat you into the ground. Therefore I will warn you three right now." he said as his pupils narrowed to match reptile like slits. It freaked all three of them out and made them shake in fear.

"If I find you peeping again I will end you. I will beat the three of you so bad no one will ever be able to recognize you. Understand?" He said as the three quickly nodded their heads furiously.

"Good." he said as he dropped them to the ground but kept a hold of them.

"Now though I would love to be the one to give you punishment, I feel it would best for the girls to be the one to give you your just deserts." He said as the girls all came out with their kendo sticks and glared towards the perverted trio.

"Ladies." He said as he gave them a smile which made them all blush. "They are all your to do with."

"Thank you Naruto-kun." they all chorused out before they got an evil glint in their eyes as Naruto pushed the three boys towards them as the yelps of pain began to echo through the school. Though no one had any sympathy for the three boys since they were getting what they deserved.

"Troublesome." Naruto said as he took his spot back under the tree and continued with his lunch.

As he ate his lunch, two set off eyes stared down at him from one of the roofs of the buildings.

One was the gaze of Akeno Himejima which had a curious look with even a bit of lust in them. Watching Naruto threaten the three boys had actually made her heart flutter.

The other pair of eyes belonged to her best friend Rias Gremory. Like Akeno she was a buxom young woman with a light skin tone, and blue-green eyes. Her most distinctive feature is her long, crimson red hair that reaches down to her thighs, with a single hair sticking out from the top. Her hair also has loose bangs covering her forehead and side bangs framing her face.

She currently had her head leaning gently on her palm as she watched Naruto put the perverted trio in their place.

"Fu Fu Fu my, he was certainly vicious to the three perverts." Akeno said as she laughed in her hand.

"He was which was quite humorous to watch though he was very physically strong as well. He was holding three teenage boys by their collar and had them lifted off the ground with very little effort. He even cracked the wall a little."

"You think Naruto-kun is not human then? That he is some kind of supernatural creature?"

"I think so since his physical strength is much greater then a normal boy his age even with his….physical structure." She said blushing a tad red as Akeno laughed at her blush. "Plus he does not feel human when I got a read on him."

"My does someone have a crush on Naruto-kun? If you do then get in line because I saw him first." Akeno said as she smiled innocently at Rias.

Rias smirked at her friend but went back to looking at Naruto. "Perhaps I can add him to my plans." She said haughtily as she continued to watch him for the rest of lunch while Akeno ogle him.

**Later that day**

Naruto casually made his way home with is bag slung over his right shoulder while he read The Hobbit. With his love for books, adventure stories were always his favorite since they played with ones imagination the most and it brought out his inner child.

Since he was writing a book of his own about a ninja who goes on adventures and tries to prove himself to the world, other adventure stories were big influences on him and helped him mold the story.

It was late afternoon and most were returning to their homes by now with parents welcoming their children home from school or wives welcoming their husbands from long days at work.

As he continued to walk the streets began to empty. Though there was no one around that he could see, he could sense two people following after him.

They were following him by the rooftops and had been for the last half an hour. It was also the same two energy signatures that he felt watching him back during lunch at school.

Seeing that no one from any direction was around he stopped and put his book away into his pocket.

"You can come out now. I know you have been following me since we left school. There is no point hiding."

It did not happen immediately but he stood their patiently looking in front of him. Then from the side and out of the shadows, his eyebrows rose up in surprise when he saw Akeno and another girl from his class who he knew was called Rias stepped out.

"You knew we were following you?" She asked.

"I did though I did not know who other then Akeno-chan here since I recognized her as a devil when we shook hands this morning. Am I right in thinking you are also a devil Rias-san?"

She nodded. "I am Rias Gremory, heiress to the Gremory family."

Naruto whistled in amazement. "Wow I have never met such a high class devil before. I have read about the Gremory family and that your family is a very noble devil family. You know I think today is actually the first time I have ever met a devil." He said surprising the two of them. "In fact I have never met an angel or a fallen angel either."

'_So he is not of the three main factions then.'_ Rias and Akeno thought.

"You have never met a devil before?" Rias asked genuinely surprised.

"Well not a full devil like yourself. The only other devil I have met is the Dragon/Devil hybrid Tannin the Meteor Dragon."

Saying Tannins name both Rias and Akeno's eyes widened to great proportions when they heard the dragon's name. Heck anyone in the Underworld knew that name and many younger devils looked up to it since Tannin was a greatly respected member of the Underworld as well as extremely powerful.

"You know Tannin?" Rias asked. "How?"

"Of course he is my teacher and the one who taught me how to fight." He said and once again Rias and Akeno were thrown back.

'_Trained by a warrior such as Tannin is such an honor. Who is he? If he is trained by Tannin then he must be powerful. And why is he here in the human world?'_ Rias thought with hundreds of question swarming around in her head.

"What are you?" Akeno asked in wonder now more curious than ever before. Rias was no better.

"I can tell you but not here out in the open. If you want to know more about me then you can come home with me if you like. It's only another ten minutes from here. If not then you will have to wait another time." he said as he turned around and began walking away.

"Buchou what do we do?"

Rias had a contemplative look on her face as she watched Naruto walk away from them. He didn't sound like he would harm them and he did not come off as evil or want to hurt them in anyway. He sounded more like he would tell them in the open if he could but was just unable too.

Biting her lip and making her decision she ran after Naruto to which Akeno also quickly followed and joined him by walking at his side. Rias on his right and Akeno on his left.

Like Naruto had said it only took ten minutes to get to his home and they found themselves looking at a seven bedroom manor house with steps that led up towards it. It had roses going up the sides of the building that only added to its beauty. It has a deck on the front of the house from both the first second and third floor. The windows showed edges of curtains though they could not feel anyone else living there.

He led the two girls in as he put his backpack down to the side where his shoes were currently resting. The girls did the same as Naruto showed them into a large, spacious and comfortable family room with dark brown wooden floors and white walls with wooded panels going across them at the bottom half of the walls. Along the top were wooden beams and at the bottom of the centre wall was a fireplace with a large forty-inch plasma television.

"Your home is very beautiful." Rias commented as she marvel at his home. It was very warm and inviting. "Is it just you here?"

"Yes my mother is not home much so it's mostly just me here. Can I get you anything to drink?" he asked but they both shook their heads.

"No thank you. We would like to get answers from you if that is okay with you," Rias said as she and Akeno took their seats on the black couch.

Naruto nodded and took the seat on the couch on the other side of the coffee table.

"If I tell you what I am and who I am will you keep this to yourself. My existence has been kept secret since I was born and only three people know that I even exist."

Rias and Akeno looked at one another quickly agreed to it. "We promise what you say will stay between us as long as it is not harmful or a threat to anyone."

Naruto nodded. "Well as you have first guessed I am not a devil, an angel or a fallen angel. But I am not human either. I am something different all together." he said as he closed his eyes and focused on his back.

When he did both Akeno and Rias looked in wonder as two black wings came out of his back with blue marking over them. Only they were not wings belonging to a devil or an angel but instead were shaped and designed like dragon wings.

He then opened his eyes to show his pupils were now reptile like slits.

"I, Miss Gremory and Miss Himejima am a Dragon." He said as silence was rained out through the manor house.

Both Rias and Akeno looked at Naruto not in fear or in anger but instead in sheer amazement and wonder. Dragons were always known to be giant lizards like the stories and the files had depicted them as yet here was a Dragon that was in the form of a Dragon. And they could tell by the tone in his voice that he was being truthful.

They both knew that Dragons were the most powerful creatures in existence and even the weakest dragon's powers could match a high class devil. Heck the strongest Dragons in existence made the Satan's and God look like ants in comparison. It was unfortunately why alot of the higher classed devils in the Underworld did not like Dragons. They feared their power.

"But you are so human looking." Akeno said as she got up and touched Naruto's wings which were surprisingly smoother then what she thought they would be like. Rias did the same with the wing on the other side.

"That would be because of my mother. She is the only human looking Dragon in existence and therefore when I was born I was born a human shaped dragon as well. Though I can turn into my full dragon form if I want though I rarely do so."

"What is your mother name? I have heard of a human shaped Dragon in the past and from books but I forgot the name."

"Well she has a few titles that you might find more familiar. **The Infinite Dragon God** is one and the **Ouroboros Dragon** is the other. Though her name simply is Ophis." He said as Rias and Akeno's jaws just dropped and stared at Naruto in sheer amazement again.

'_I-It's not possible. The Infinite Dragon God has a child? A child my age and at my school. T-This can't be a coincidence. Such a powerful entity would have been picked up but Ophis has been known to be able to just disappear so no doubt she can get her own child in the shadows and undetected. Even my brother fears the name since even in his true form he would not be able to match her.'_

'_It is just one surprise after another.' _Akeno thought trying to get her thoughts together while Rias went from looking amazed to a look that made her look like she had won the lottery.

'_I cannot let an opportunity pass up like this. The chance at such a powerful ally can't be ignored. I have to get him on my side before someone else like Sona gets to him.'_

She quickly went in front of Naruto and grabbed his hands together into hers and pulled him down back onto the couch as she sat on the coffee table staring intently into his eyes with hopes in her eyes.

"Naruto-kun tell me do you know what a peerage is and what the evil pieces system is?" She asked immediately as Akeno's eyes widened.

'_She wants him to join?'_

Naruto eyebrows lifted in surprise but then again he should not of been that surprised at the request since Tannin did tell him that if a high class devil who could create a peerage found him they would try and get him on their side.

"Well if I understand it right, the evil piece system was a system that was created to repopulate the devils numbers since it lost many of its own in the Great War. They are a set of 15 chess pieces given to top-class Devils to increase their ranks by reincarnating other beings into Devils. The most popular people to use it are heirs and members of the noble families of the Underworld right?"

Rias nodded enthusiastically. "That's right I myself have my own peerage Naruto though I currently only have three members of it so far. Akeno here is a member of my peerage and is my queen. I have another who is a knight and the final person is a rook."

"And you are not just telling me this just for the fun of it are you?" He said as she shook her head.

"No Naruto I am telling you this because I want you to join my peerage. I think you would be a great ally to have on my side and also a great friend. A Dragon would be a great booster for my peerage and it would make me feel a lot safer with you around. Dragons are the most powerful creatures in existence for a reason and yet here you are, the son of the Infinite Dragon God. I don't normally believe in fate but I feel I was fated to find you."

"I don't know about this." Naruto said aloud as he had a thinking look on his face. "I mean it's a nice offer but I never really expected myself to join a peerage ever. The only person with a peerage that I have met is Uncle Tannin though from what I have seen they seem happy with him."

"Then you should also know that the Gremory family is known through the Underworld for being caring and looking after their peerage. Our peerage becomes part of our family and we never turn our back on our family. Please Naruto." Rias asked gripping his hand tightly in hers. "Join our family and I promise you will not ever regret it."

"A family huh?" Naruto said looking down with a soft smile on his face.

"My family has only ever consisted of my mom, my dad and my Uncle Tannin. Though I love them greatly there is no one my age I can talk to and sometimes that makes things a little difficult. I have never been great at making friends so I have difficulty making friends."

Akeno's hand rested on Rias hands which were still locked onto his. She was giving him a big smile as his wings finally retracted away.

"Please join our family Naruto-kun. I think you will make life more interesting with you around."

"And if the need should ever arise then we will protect you should anyone ever harm you."

'_That does sound nice.'_ Naruto thought as he thought it over in his head. _'There is no downside really other then eventually I will be found out but that was bound to happen eventually anyway. Why not since when everyone finds out I could have friend stand to stand by me.'_

'_Then again no one would try and kill me due to mom. And if they ever found about Papa Red…'_

He chuckled at the thought which gained a confused look form Rias and Akeno but Naruto waved it off before looking Rias in the eyes.

"So join your peerage? What piece did you have in mind?" He asked smiling at Rias and Akeno as Rias grew the biggest and brightest smile he had ever seen a person wear.

"Well." she said excitedly as she waved her hand and red glowing chess pieces formed in front of him.

"Well maybe you should pick since I have no idea where to put a Dragon. Just remember the Queen is already taken." she said Akeno waved cutely at him.

"Hmm." Naruto hummed as he looked the pieces over. He thought it over and weighted the pros and cons for each of the evil pieces. Ria already had a knight, a rook and a queen. The Queen was recognized as the most powerful underneath the King and would be the last to fight.

'_The pawn is usually seen as the weakest and yet in fact it really holds great value. Plus if someone powerful becomes a pawn it would give the deception that the others in the peerage are just as powerful. Plus a pawn would be the first line of defense and if they are serious about me becoming their friend and want me to become part of their family then I will do all I can to protect them.'_

Making his mind up he picked up one of the pawn much to the surprise of Rias and Akeno.

"Are you positive about this pick Naruto?" Rias asked as Naruto nodded and explained his reasons.

Thinking it over Rias and Akeno could see where he was coming from and would be a great advantage to them overall.

"Very well Naruto-kun. We will begin the process. Since you are not dead you won't be reincarnated per say but the process will put devils blood in you." She said as Naruto nodded.

Rias channeled her energy through her body and began to say speak. "I command thee, Naruto Uzumaki, on my name Rias Gremory, become my servant and lead a new life as my Pawn!" There was a bright flash of light as the Gremory's hand briefly appeared on Naruto's chest before disappearing.

A small pawn appeared in front of Naruto glowing bright however just before it could be absorbed into Naruto, it sudden dimmed in color and fell aimlessly the ground. The light around them suddenly dimmed and everything suddenly returned to normal.

Rias and Akeno looked down at the pawn on the ground in surprise as Rias picked it up.

"I do not understand. I did everything normally like I usually did." She said but herd a sigh come from Naruto.

"Ahh I guess that would be because of me." He said getting odd looks form Rias and Akeno. "Remember my mother is the Dragon God. Because of that it stands to reason that I too am a Dragon God since I have her blood running through me. Though I may not be anywhere near here strength, one day I might. And I guesses because of that I cannot become a devil."

During his explanation, Rias and Akeno had a down cast look on their face.

"Here I was so close to getting such a great ally to become a member of my peerage." She said but Naruto grabbed her hand like she had done earlier.

"I may not be able to be a part of your peerage, but I would still like to be your friend. Though I can't be a loyal servant I can be your ally."

"I may not be able to join your peerage Rias-chan, I swear to you now that because of your kind offer I will swear my utmost loyalty to you. When you face dangers I will stand by your side and when people attempt to harm you I will protect you from it. That is a promise of a lifetime."

"So will you take this young dragon to be your friend and ally?" He asked hoping they would still offer their friendship.

Rias and Akeno had surprised looks on their faces but both girls quickly smiled and nodded.

"I think I would like that." Rias said as Akeno and Naruto all smiled, a great friendship and more having been born that moment.

**Chapter Two Completed **

**As you can see I did not have Naruto join the peerage. However he will be their ally and still join the Occult Research club since you don't have to be part of Rias peerage just to be a member of the club eg. Irina, Azazel.**

**Though Naruto will pretty much help them in all volumes except for being able to take part in the rating games for obvious reasons, maybe I could have Naruto put together a little group of his own. **

**Pairings as I said before Issei will have Asia and Koneko definantly with as well Irina and Ravel. So far the definite ones for Naruto is Akeno of course and now definantly Rias. I may add a few more as we go on.**

**As for his power keep sending them in, I like the idea people are sending in. :)**
