xXx Harem Games xXx
xXx Part 1: Prologue xXx
"Yes! Now this is more like it!" the orange-clad, yellow haired boy declared as he gazed upon his improvements upon the faces of the Hokage chiseled into the side of the mountain. Just as he was about to clear out his supplies and return back down to the village proper, Naruto casually brushed his hand up against the side of the face of the First Hokage.
Almost as soon as he had done so, lines of kanji scrolled out from underneath of Naruto's hand and rapidly expanded outward from the Hokage Monument at a speed almost faster than the eye could see. One line of Kanji even scrolled itself up Naruto's own arm, not that he really noticed it.
Needless to say, Naruto freaked out and gathered his supplies as swiftly as he could and vacated the premises as swiftly as possible, unsure of exactly what had just happened. He was just lucky that it was still fairly early in the morning and that no one really was out at the current time of day.
xXx Elsewhere in the Village xXx
Haruno Sakura suddenly sat bolt upright in her bed as she felt a shiver go down her spine. Unfortunately she didn't really notice the fact that her clock's second hand had suddenly stopped moving the exact instant she had sat up, and still hadn't resumed moving.
That didn't stop her from wondering why it was she suddenly had the intense desire to begin a bout of spring cleaning or to cook, especially when she didn't even LIKE cooking or cleaning.
xXx Hyuuga Compound xXx
Hyuuga Hinata was performing her morning exercise routine and had just begun her striking practice. However, much to her surprise and shock, upon landing the first blow against the striking post her palm blew a hole clean through three foot thick tree trunk, protective padding and all.
"What the…?" Hinata stated in utter confusion.
xXx Yamanaka Flower Shop xXx
Ino walked up to the sink so that she could fill a vase with water, however practically as soon as she touched the tap she felt a little tingle and the next thing she knew the sink exploded as electrified water filled the flower shop.
Now Ino was normally a big girl and wasn't prone to crying… but having an sink explode in your face is a little trying for even the most hardened of individuals… yeah, Ino broke down crying as she couldn't quite understand what had just happened.
xXx Konoha Shinobi Academy xXx
Two hours, a rather thrilling chase through the streets of Konoha by the ANBU, and a shouting match with Iruka-sensei later, and Naruto found himself tied up on the floor of the classroom belonging to the senior class of the Konoha Shinobi Academy.
Up in the arena of seats the eyes of Yamanaka Ino, and Haruno Sakura had begun rolling back into their heads as drool slowly began trickling out of their open mouths. Meanwhile Hyuuga Hinata was fairing only slightly better, but in her case her face, indeed her entire body had flushed scarlet. The predicament of all three of these girls had started the exact instant that Iruka-sensei had deposited the blond loudmouth on the floor and began his lecture, or rather his rant.
Whatever he was saying, neither Ino, or Sakura could focus on it long enough to actually make heads or tails out of whatever he was saying. The brains were both caught in a feedback loop caused by something that to them was a logical fallacy, and thus they couldn't focus on anything else but resolving the conflicting information.
'Naruto-kun looks so hot today…' thought Sakura, before she chided herself 'What? No he doesn't, how could I possibly even be thinking that. Naruto-baka is nothing but an obnoxious, loud-mouthed idiot who is constantly trying to take attention away from my Sasuke-kun!' only for her own thoughts to betray her once again by having her think 'Sasuke? Who cares about that emo pansy when we can have a real man like Naruto-kun?' Sakura's face crumpled as she tried desperately to protest these thoughts that kept intruding on her usual internal monologues. Inner-Sakura didn't appear to be in a helpful mood against whoever this foreign invader happened to be… In fact it was almost like Inner-Sakura had taken an extended leave of absence or something…
For her part Ino's own internal monologue wasn't fairing much better. 'Now there is a man with power. I bet there isn't a remote possibility he would ever call us something embarrassing 'Biri-Biri' I think I could easily get along with him…' the voice in Ino's head stated rather smugly. Ino for her part asked 'Sasuke? Yeah, he's great isn't he!' The voice in her head actually had the audacity to scoff, and it sounded quite ridiculous to hear a voice in her head doing that, 'What? the emo punk? yeah I don't think so. I got enough of that kind of attitude trying to sort out the relationship dynamics between Accelerator and my clones. I don't need another stellar example of narcissism on steroids.' the voice stated causing Ino to blink in confusion, 'Who the hell is Accelerator, and who could possibly be better than Sasuke?'
The voice in her head made a mental clucking sound and said 'Accelerator's an annoyance I used to know, as for the other… Give ya a hint, he's blond and currently tied up.'
Ino blinked at that statement, 'Naruto? What? NOOOOOOOOOO! Why do I have to share headspace with someone who is attracted to that nutjob?'
Meanwhile, despite her very different reaction, Hinata was currently engrossed in her own, starkly different mental conversation. Upon noticing Naruto a quiet voice in her head said 'He's cute...' causing Hinata's cheeks to color. This caused Hinata to get the distinct impression of someone smirking at her 'Oh! I see! You have a crush on him, don't you?'
This resulted in Hinata's blush becoming even more pronounced. 'Oh! This will be ever so much fun! I can't wait to start dressing you up just for him. You are a rather attractive young girl. I doubt even he could resist you if you used ALL of your assets to your advantage.'
At this point poor Hinata's blush covered 90% of her body; she was that embarrassed at what the voice in her head was suggesting.
Considering the intense and seemingly repetitive mental dialoguing that had consumed the psyches of Sakura and Ino, it was thus probably not very surprising that Hinata was the first to notice that the entirety of the class and the assigned instructor were looking curiously at the three of them.
"Er… y-yes I-Iruka-sensei? I-I A-apologize, I must have d-dozed off." Hinata stated.
"That's okay Hinata-chan. We were just performing a review of the Transformation Jutsu, if you would?" Iruka stated.
Hinata nodded stood up and stated "Henge!" transforming her appearance to resemble that of Naruto-kun, even if it was only an illusion. Upon noticing who she transformed into she became beat red underneath the illusion.
"Very good Hinata-chan." Iruka stated, allowing her to release the Jutsu. He then looked at Sakura and Ino. Walking over to Sakura first then Ino and waving his hand before their faces trying to see if he could get any sort of reaction out of them, which he failed to do he said "I don't know what happened, but they appear to have gone into some form of shock. I don't think we will get anything out of them today."
xXx Later that Day xXx
xXx Hyuuga Compound, Hinata's Room xXx
"Okay, so who are you, and why are you in my head?" Hinata inquired of the invisible voice.
"Hmm… my name is Diana. As for why I am in your head, I haven't the foggiest idea, but judging from what happened with that tree earlier this morning, I have a rather large suspicion that you somehow gained my abilities as well as having me being able to serve as your new conscience." Diana explained.
"Why does the idea of you serving as my conscience fill me with unprecedented levels of utter terror?" Hinata inquired.
"Oh come now. I am not evil or anything. I was actually one of the good guys where I came from. Though I suppose we did sort of operate outside of the law… strictly speaking. We did it all to make the world a better place." Diana explained.
"Uh huh. I meant why do I get the distinct impression that you are going to try to corrupt the whole Yamato Nadeshiko image I have going on for me here?" Hinata deadpanned.
"Wait… you mean you are purposefully cultivating a specific look?" Diana asked almost hesitantly…
"Yes." Hinata stated exasperatedly.
"I suppose this look involves coming across as a helpless little flower?" Diana inquired to which she got a flat look from Hinata who was conducting this conversation while looking in the mirror. "I assumed as much. Oh well that just will not do. When we are done with your makeover you will present the image of the proper little Glacier Waif that I would be proud to consider my successor."
"Yes… but is the skintight lycra bodysuit that I am getting the impression you want me to be wearing truly necessary to present such an image? It hardly seems practical…" Hinata complained.
"Oh come on, the costume makes the heroine!" Diana declared in a rather loud mental voice, before adding almost as an afterthought, "Plus it isn't like you don't already have the body to pull off such an outfit." causing Hinata to blush crimson.
xXx Two Hours Later xXx
xXx Haruno Residence xXx
"What on earth came over me?" Sakura griped as she looked at the bags upon bags of newly purchased clothing. It wasn't like she couldn't afford such clothing, her parents gave her quite the considerable allowance. The problem was the outfits that she had ended up buying and felt a rather nagging desire to dress in, under any and all circumstances, that she just couldn't really suppress for some reason.
These outfits were all rather frilly examples of French Maid Uniforms done in the Gothic Lolita style. She just could not comprehend where these desires to dress and behave… huh… like a maid… were coming from.
To make matters worse she had begun having internal arguments with herself over the pro's and con's regarding whether she should date Naruto or Sasuke. She felt like she was losing her mind. It didn't help matters that her brain nearly completely shut itself down if she even caught a glimpse of Naruto.
She didn't really know what she would do if she ended up on the same Ninja Team as Naruto.
Sighing to herself, and not really paying attention to what she was doing Sakura changed into one of her new Maid Uniforms almost as if on autopilot and set about cleaning her room for some cathartic relaxation.
xXx Elsewhere xXx
Ino growled in frustration as she picked up a flat pebble, pulled back her arm before hurling it towards the pond… only to fall flat on her ass in shock as a sonic boom emanated from where the pebble had just been as it cleaved a massive shockwave through the water due to the velocity at which it was traveling.
"What on Kami's green Earth?" Ino stated in shock.
"Ah, seems you might have accidentally discovered the move that gave me my most famous epithet." the voice in Ino's head declared in a superior manner, "Allow me to formally introduce myself, I am the Third Strongest Esper from Academy City, known by the epithet of 'Railgun' due to my signature attack, Misaka Mikoto… Prime…" adding the last word on almost as a grumble.
"Huh?" Ino said in confusion, "Where did that attack even come from? It didn't use chakra, that much was for certain."
"No, it is generated by you manipulating your AIM Diffusion Field. I can only suspect that when my consciousness joined with yours you developed the same peculiarities in your AIM Diffusion Field that I have within mine that allows you to manipulate electricity in more or less the same way that I do. Oh, and be careful around bodies of water, pipes or sinks else what happened this morning repeat itself."
"So I can manipulate electricity?" Ino asked cautiously.
"Manipulate is such a pedestrian term for what you are likely now capable of… you might as well get used to thinking of yourself as the Elemental Nations' new Goddess of Lightning. Afterall, that was what I essentially had to do back home… well at least I would have if it weren't for the annoying ability of a friend of mine to negate each and every one of my abilities just by intercepting it with his hand… seriously annoying bugger." Mikoto griped.
"Ok… and what was that 'prime' comment?" Ino asked.
"Oh, back in my original world I was cloned about 200,000 times with only about 20,000 of them active at any one time at most, in an effort to try to create some new pinnacle of Esper-kind. Whole plan kind of backfired on the people behind it when the clones went rogue, and the person they were using the clones to amp up the abilities of took a liking to the head clone due to her solving some sort of serious malfunction in his abilities and declaring the clones as a whole to be on his 'no kill' list." Mikoto explained.
"Oh…" Ino stated confusedly as she tried to figure out just how advanced a Jutsu these clones happened to be…
xXx The Next Day xXx
xXx Konoha Academy, Senior Class xXx
Sakura entered the classroom, and almost instantly all background chatter screeched to a rapid halt as everyone took in the outfit that she was wearing. Almost as one the vast majority of the students began laughing uproariously. This caused Sakura's face to bloom in an embarrassed blush as she drooped her head and looked for a seat thinking to herself 'I was afraid of this, why did I wear such an outfit to school?'
Of course a voice in the back of her head muttered out the statement 'Unforgivable!' Although Sakura didn't seem to notice it.
Just then Hinata entered the room, and heads again turned at her appearance. Unlike Sakura this was because Hinata and Diana had seemingly come to a compromise in regards to Hinata's attire over the course of the previous night.
Instead of Hinata's typical long sleeved over-sized concealing jacket, she was now dressed in an outfit similar to the type that was normally seen on the Yamanaka Heiress. Short-sleeved shirt that left her midriff exposed, though that had been covered by bandage style tape. Combat Shorts that were really nothing more than spandex.
The thing many of the students immediately noticed was the Hyuuga Heiress' rather noticeable bust-size, despite only being twelve years old she appeared to at least be a B-cup.
Unnoticed by all the students, Diana was wearing a mental smirk at the thought of just how rapidly she suspected that those B-cups were going to develop into a rather respectable set of E-cups considering whose blessing this girl now possessed.
It was only a few moments afterward that Yamanaka Ino entered the room, took one look at what Hinata and Sakura were wearing before grinning to herself and mentally declaring to Mikoto 'Looks like I am the only one with a mental backseat driver that doesn't desire a change in my wardrobe!'
Mikoto sent a mental shrug and said 'Well, too be fair, I was never particularly into the whole accessorizing with my powers thing that some people seem bound and determined to try to pull off. Always seemed rather ridiculous to me. Not to mention horribly impractical. About the worst you can expect from me in that regard are comments about how tacky someone's outfit may or may not look.'
'A girl after my own heart.' Ino stated happily.
Unbeknownst to either Mikoto or Ino a shudder of cosmic proportions went through the world as Mikoto's declaration invoked the will of the universe in summoning forth a being with with what was arguably the worst fashion sense in the entire combined multiverses… not that this being really cared what other people thought of it's fashion sense thanks to its own sheer arrogance.
xXx Elsewhere in Konoha xXx
Tenten had been relaxing and enjoying a nice day at the Hotsprings when suddenly she felt a chill go down her spine. Then she heard a mildly bemused voice in the back of her head state, "Well this is certainly different. Aren't Servants usually supposed to have their own unique bodies separate from their Masters?"
"What? Who's there?" Tenten asked nervously, completely bewildered at hearing voices, when she was fairly confident she was the only one in the Hotsprings at the moment.
"Hmm… yes… this is certainly most peculiar. As near as I can tell, I WAS King Gilgamesh of Sumeria. However something seems to have caused a rather large number of errors in my summoning to this world. First and foremost is the fact that I am distinctly identifying my gender as female, despite the fact that I know for a fact that the historical Gilgamesh was a male. The other most significant error that seems to be presenting itself is that instead of manifesting in a physical Servant Container as per usual, I seem to have merged with you, granting you complete access to each and every one of my abilities…" the now identified female Gilgamesh stated before pausing.
"Which if this is really true… hold out your hand if you would please." she stated.
Cautiously Tenten did as instructed, and almost instantaneously a rather large and ornate looking key appeared in upturned floating just above the palm of her hand, materializing from seemingly out of thin air.
'"What the hell is this?" Tenten asked.
"That, simply put, is the Key of the King's Law, Bab-Ilu. That key will fully attune you to my infinite treasury, allowing you to summon its contents at will. The only time you will ever need to utilize the key to summon something from within the treasury, is in the instance of you needing to withdraw an item that has been placed under the highest level of security measures within the vault, as the item in question, if not locked down within the confines of a temporally locked quantum singularity, has the potential to erase all of existence if left unchecked."
"So, how do I work this thing?" Tenten asked apprehensively.
"Simply place it in the air in front of you vertically and turn it until the parts around the grip begin rotating. They will then start to glow, followed by settling. Once this happens a energy like portal will momentarily appear in front of you, signifying that the connection has been established. To summon the object from the high security vault, simply summon the key and repeat the process. But do not summon that object unless the situation you find yourself in is most dire…" Gilgako… yeah that fit… paused momentarily before chuckling and saying "Or you feel like lording over your enemies complete and utter lack of having even a remote chance against you from the very start by completely curbstomping them."
"Er… okay…" Tenten stated as she stood up, revealing her developing body to the world, she had a nice pair of C-Cup breasts, despite the fact that she was only thirteen years of age. She placed the key as she was directed and twisted it appropriately. The air in front of her shimmered allowing her to know that the key had accepted her authority over the Gate of Babylon. Then the key faded from existence.
Feeling that her bath had now been ruined Tenten left the hotsprings and returned to the changing room to put on her training clothes. Upon seeing what she was about to put on Gilgako chided "Oh no, that just will not do…" and just as suddenly as the key had appeared a shimmering light appeared behind her and from within it a rather curvaceous set of golden colored armor manifested itself in front of Tenten. "This is much more appropriate for the new Ruler of this world."
"You… expect me to wear that?" Tenten inquired, looking appraisingly at the rather revealing outfit in front of her. It was a stereotypical set of female fantasy armor, complete with cleavage window, nothing to cover the legs other than knee-high boots and a rather long crimson red loincloth, and the entire thing appeared to be made out of solid gold.
"Yeah, why what's wrong with it?" Gilgako inquired.
"Oh, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it…" Tenten said hurriedly, "I am just surprised you have a suit of armor designed for a female's body, seeing as how you said you used to be male, didn't you?"
"Oh, yeah I did say that. However I think you will soon discover that my treasury contains within it just about everything you could possibly imagine as existing. If mankind has dreamt it up, odds are it exists within my Treasury. Oh, and from what I can tell from in here, the treasury will essentially act like a turbo charged version of your usual fighting style." Gilgako explained.
"What do you mean?" Tenten asked.
"Simply that you can telepathically summon any number of objects from within the treasury and have them attack any target you want them to, without needing to physically interact with them." Gilgako said smugly, before adding "And the power of some of these weapons is equivalent to… hmm… your Sensei's full Hachimon Release."
"That is… a rather remarkable amount of power." Tenten mused.
xXx Konoha Academy xXx
xXx Same Time xXx
Naruto had just arrived at class and looked at the assembled students, 'What is Sakura-chan wearing? Whatever it is, it looks really good on her.'
He then glanced over and noticed what Hinata was wearing 'She looks good as well. I don't think I have ever seen her in such revealing clothes before.'
With those thoughts in mind Naruto sat down and waited for class to begin.
A short time later Mizuki-sensei and Iruka-sensei entered the room as Iruka stepped forward and said "Okay class, today we will be holding the graduation exam. When your name is called, please step into the next room where you will be given the exam… Let's see, we will start with…" and the list of students began. Since Uzumaki was near the end of the list Naruto had a long while to wait.
