Chapter Three: Revelations
After serving a couple their drinks, Naruto watched from the corner of his eye as Minako and her white cat hastily left the Arcade.
Motoki, who was nearby, seemed to catch on Naruto's sight and chuckled.
"This happens all the time with Minako-san and her friends."
Naruto wasn't sure what it all meant, other than the girl was busy. Motoki then gave a gasp of realization.
"I almost forgot!" He then went the the cashier's counter and brought out a small box. "Someone left this here for you, Naruto-san."
The blonde-haired ninja was confused as other than Minako and the people he was introduced to the other day, he didn't really know that many people in the area.
Naruto took the box and opened the lid, peering inside. His face turned ashen.
"Naruto-san, is something wrong?" Motoki asked, concernedly.
Naruto's breathing hitched as he brought out the contents of the box. In his hand was a horned plate attached to a headband. On the plate was the kanji for "oil". The plate and the headband had what appeared to be dried blood.
Motoki, wanting to ask about the item and now worried about his new friend, unfortunately had a call coming into the Arcade and had to leave.
Naruto was flooded with emotions, mostly anxiety and fear. However, when he saw what else was in the box, it soon turned into anger. The last thing in the box was a note which told him to meet the person who sent the box by a playground near a primary school. If he failed to show up, the person would start killing the children playing there until he actually came.
Minako found she was the second to last person to arrive when she and Artemis met up with Ami at a crosswalk next to an Elementary School.
"Looks like everyone is here, Ami-chan tell us what happened." Luna said.
The bluenette nodded, "I was on my way home from Cram School when I saw a tall person in a black cloak with red clouds looking around the area. I tried following them but they disappeared in this area."
"What does this person look like?" Usagi asked.
"I don't know. They had a hat on which hid their face."
"We better search the area." Artemis said, "If anyone finds them, please send a signal."
All the girls nodded.
Minako found herself with Rei and Artemis as they ventured towards the school. The darkened building looked unoccupied.
"Let's look around back." Rei suggested.
The trio made their way around until they were forced to halt. By the swing sets was the individual that Ami had described. However, he was not alone as there was a shorter, second, person with him, dressed in the same attire.
"There's another one!" Rei whispered.
Minako nodded while Artemis took off to inform the others.
"Will our gift be enough to make the Jinjuuriki come out of hiding?"
Minako and Rei turned their attention back to the two cloaked individuals.
"It should." The taller one said, "The runt cares too much about those around him."
"Looks like he's here."
Minako and Rei noticed a third person by a tree who was hidden by the shadow of the foliage.
Naruto was livid. However, he was prepared as best can be, knowing that these people had followed him to this world with the intent to capture him. However, feeling emotional, right now, he wanted answers.
"I'm here. What did you bastards do to Ero-sensei!"
The taller one grinned, "The old fool had thought we captured you and decided to pay us a visit."
Naruto had a feeling on where this was going...
The shorter of the two produced a scroll and unsealed it, revealing a large object in a sack that was soaked at the bottom.
"Leader-sama let me have him, after he had finished him. I've already collected on his bounty." The shorter one said before sealing the sack and its contents up again.
Naruto feeling rage boil within him, nearly got cleaved in two when the taller one took the opportunity to attack him. Jumping farther back, his face was now visible with his eyes moist with tears.
His opponent scoffed, "You're still too weak, runt!" Tossing off his hat, revealing his blue skin and small dark eyes, Kisame grinned as he saw Naruto look weary.
"I see you haven't forgotten me." He then hefted Samehada onto his shoulder before he charged at him once more, "That'll make this all the sweeter!"
The two girls watching had a range of emotions that they were feeling, Minako's was the strongest. She didn't understand fully what was happening but one thing was certain. These horrible people were after Naruto and looked like they wanted to kill him.
Rei wasn't on the same mental path as her friend but she too understood that the boy's life was in danger.
Holding up their Crystal Change Rods, they shouted:
"Venus Crystal Power, Make Up!"
"Mars Crystal Power, Make Up!"
After their transformations, Venus and Mars rushed to the scene. Venus then pushed Naruto to the side as Kisame swung at him.
Kisame's face contorted into confusion as he took a leap back to his partner and observed the newcomers.
"Who the hell are these two?"
"I am the Agent of Love and Beauty, I am Sailor Venus! In the name of Love, I will punish you!", Venus said.
"And I am the Agent of Love and Fire, I am Sailor Mars! In the name of Mars, I will chastise you!" Mars said, pointing at the two of them.
"Tch, whoever you two are, you're in my way!" Kisame then swung his sword with tremendous force, knocking the two girls onto their backs. Kisame then addressed Naruto who was looking at the girls in confusion.
"By the way, do you know how long you've been gone, brat? A year. In that time, our little group has managed to get the rest of your kind. You're the last, so you better make this more interesting!" Kisame, once again charged at Naruto.
"Kagebushin no jutsu!" Naruto then created six clones, which began creating ransengans in their hands. However, Kisame was faster and destroyed the clones one after the other before attacking the original.
"Mars Flame Sniper!"
Kisame turned just as an arrow of flame came hurtling at him and hit him in the shoulder and went right through. The Nuke-nin from Kirigakure hissed as he held his shoulder in pain.
"Venus!"
The two men's eyes went to the blonde-haired girl who had yellow hearts swirling around her before they turned into a big one which she shot out at Kisame, shouting, "Love and Beauty Shock!"
Kisame managed to dodge, this time, and in his wake the area exploded in yellow light.
Kisame's partner took a step forward, "Those are some interesting abilities. Perhaps, I shall add your hearts to my collection."
Hearing the explosions, Sailor Moon and the others began running towards the sounds with the cats behind them.
Artemis was worried and hoped that they would get there in time.
"What do you want with Naruto-san?" Venus asked.
Kisame grinned, "We're hunting demons, little girl. He's not much, but it's what's on the inside that counts, am I right?"
Venus noticed Naruto scowling and a flash of red covered his eyes.
"Kisame, we're wasting time."
Kisame chuckled, "You're in too much of a hurry, Kakuzu. Itachi was more laid back, you know?"
Kakuzu looked at Naruto, who he could see was teetering on the edge and decided to push him farther.
"I have another scroll in my possession, Jinjuuriki. Would you like to see it?"
Naruto started growling his canines enlarging, his irises becoming slit...
Kisame grinned, "Pink hair is so hard to come by, these days..."
The two Sailor Senshi were once again floored when an evil energy erupted out of Naruto. The red swirling energy covering him like a cloak. His eyes turning white and two re tails forming behind him.
With a Guttural, beast-like, roar he charged at the two men.
Kisame swiped Samehada at him, which began feeding on the demonic chakra. Meanwhile, two masks came out from Kakauzu's back and launched water and fire jutsus at the possessed boy.
Venus and Saturn struggled to their feet, both watching in horror at what the teen had become.
"Mars, what's happening to him?"
Sailor Mars could feel the taint of demonic energy rolling at them in waves. However, she could sense the boy inside struggling for freedom.
"I need some time. I might be able to bring him back but with those two it's going to be hard."
Venus nodded.
"You aren't alone!"
The two turned to see Sailor Moon and the others standing behind them.
"We'll back you up!" Sailor Mercury said, smiling. Jupiter and Sailor Moon nodded.
The four girls then went charging into the battlefield.
