Ok so the votes are in and it looks like the tamers won't be learning how to use chakra. I hope that the ones that votes for them to use chakra won't turn away because of the decision. 82 favorites and 105 followers, this story is doing a lot better than I thought it would and I thank you all very much for that. Anyway I am going to add something to this story that I haven't seen done in any other story and think it will add a good twist to mine. Any way hope you all enjoy.
In the Southern area of the digital world, Zhuqiaomon sat on his throne looking down at a cloaked figure kneeling before him. The only visible thing about this figure was one glowing crimson eye. Kneeled next to the figure was a small, black digimon. He had one red eye and one green eye. He also had an eye on each palm of his hands. He had what looked like small bat wings coming from his back and wrapped around his body connected in front of him by a small gold chain. He had on a pair of black pants and dark blue shoes with three red claws coming from each shoe with sharp red fingernails. This digimon was Dracmon.
"You are my right hand man now, I expect nothing but perfection from the two of you. I want you to learn what you can of those tamers that Fanglongmon seems to trust so much. The old fool thinks we need help stopping the chaos from rising. Do whatever you need to in order to take out the tamer's partners to keep them from interfering with my plans." Roared Zhuqiaomon.
"Hai master. Let's go Dracmon." Replied the hooded figure as he pulled out a white D-ark with a black ring around the screen and black buttons and opened a Digi-gate to the real world and disappeared.
"I will prove to that old fool that we don't need those tamers to stop the chaos. As long as my new servant keeps the others busy, everything will go according to plans." Thought Zhuqiaomon.
(Human World)
At the top of a large building in the middle of Shinjuku, stood a tall, blond man flicking his lighter open and closed. He was wearing a black business suit with a pair of sunglasses. This was Mitsuo Yamaki. He was staring up a giant screen on the roof of the room he was in. In the middle of the room were two women setting in chairs that were moving back and forth around the room. One was a brown haired women and the other was a red head.
"Sir, we have two wild ones trying to bio-emerge. One is a weak signal and the other is quite large." Said the red haired woman as two small red circles appeared on the screen.
"Put a tracer on it now Riley." Replied Yamaki.
"Hai Sir." Replied the now named red head. Yamaki watched as a third red circle headed for the first two before it disappeared.
"What happened Riley?" asked Yamaki.
"The tracer was destroyed sir. The wild one is bio-emerging." Said Riley.
Across the city of Shinjuku, a hooded figure appeared with his digimon partner. "Let's see if we can find these other tamers." Thought the figure.
(With Naruto)
It had been a rather couple boring days for Naruto. He had made it through another week of boring classes that was even more boring than Iruka's had been. After school had let out for the day, he and Coronamon had decided to walk around the city looking for bio-emerging digimon. Takato and Guilmon had overheard them and had asked to tag along. At the moment, the two tamers and their partners were walking through a parking garage headed back to Guilmon's hideout.
Out of nowhere, a white furred paw slammed into Coronamon's jaw sending him flying into the concrete wall. He slowly stood up rubbing his jaw where he had just been hit. He looks around to see Renamon standing with a smirk on her face.
"Oi Rena-chan, you know it's not nice to attack someone when they ain't expecting it." Said Coronamon.
"I didn't realize I was supposed to be nice." Replied Renamon with a small blush from the nickname.
"So where is Rika-chan at? She must not be too far behind?" asked Naruto.
Just then Rika stepped out from behind one of the concrete columns. "I told you to drop the suffix whiskers." Rika says with an angry expression at the use of chan.
"Anyone ever tell you that you look cute when you're angry?" asked Naruto causing Rika to blush a deep red.
"I didn't come here to talk. I came to fight. I owe you for last time we fought whiskers." Replied Rika.
"You don't always have to fight." Came a voice from behind Takato. Everyone turned to see Henry and Terriermon come walking up to them.
"You all really need to momentai." Said Terriermon from the top of Henry's head.
Their words however fell on deaf ears and Coronamon and Renamon charged at each other. At this time, Terriermon jumped off Henry's head to try and break up the fight.
"Terriermon don't do it." Yelled Henry. It was too late as a red beam shot out from behind one of the cars and enveloped Terriermon.
"Terriermon digivolve to….Gargomon."
The small form of Terriermon was now replaced with a much larger version. He had on a pair of blue jean pants and a belt of bullets thrown around his chest. He also had two large Gatling guns on at the end of each arm. He had a small red diamond on the center of his forehead and two red whisker like marks on each cheek.
Naruto pulled out his D-ark as an image popped up on the screen. "Gargomon. Champion level animal type digimon. His attacks are Gargo Laser and Bunny Pummel."
Gargomon took a minute to look around before he got a faraway look in his eyes and started randomly shooting off his guns in different directions at anything and everything. Naruto just managed to avoid getting shot as he landed behind a car with Takato and Henry.
"This is why I didn't want him to digivolve. He isn't ready for that type of power yet." Said Henry from his hiding spot.
Naruto heard Gargomon stop firing and looked up to see why. When he looked up he saw Rika backed up against a concrete pillar frozen by fear. Gargomon was slowly making his way towards her with a maniacal grin on his face.
"Renamon, Guilmon distract Gargomon for a minute. Coronamon I want you to go all out now!" Naruto shouted as rushed to Rika and scooped her up bridal style and got her away from the oversized bunny.
Guilmon and Renamon both did as Naruto said and tried distracting Gargomon with a swipe of the claws here or a punch there. Coronamon concentrated all his power into the head piece on his forehead. "Corona Flame" shouted Coronamon as he fired a large flame from his head piece at Gargomon. The attack made impact and sent the bunny flying into the nearby wall knocking him out. After releasing the attack, Coronamon started to fall from the loss of his stamina but Renamon helped him over to Naruto and Rika and helped him sit down.
"Nice job you three." Naruto told the three digimon before turning to Henry. "You may want to find a way to de-digivolve him. I'm going to take Rika-chan home. Would you care to take Coronamon to Rika's and I'll bring Rika?" the blond asked the kitsune to which she nodded and placed the smaller digimon on her back and disappeared.
Naruto set Rika down on her feet but quickly caught her again as her legs were still shaking with fear and gave out from underneath her. Naruto carried her out of the parking garage and headed back towards her home. Unbeknown to anyone was a hooded figure watching from the shadows with his partner.
"Seems like I found the tamers Zhuqiaomon-sama was talking about. They will be fun to get rid of, especially the blond." Thought the figure with a quiet chuckle to himself.
(With Naruto and Rika)
Naruto was currently on his way back to Rika's house with Rika still in his arms. He noticed Renamon out of the corner of his eye, with Coronamon still on her back, staying close enough to jump into action should something happen. He smiled at the fact that Renamon was worried for her tamer, but smirked at the thought that he was strong enough to take on most digimon by himself.
"Oi kit, when are you gonna tell them the truth? You won't be able to keep it from them forever, especially the red haired vixen you're so fond of." Kurama asked.
"I don't know when I'll tell them Kurama. I don't think they would take it too easily finding out I'm from a different dimension completely. And what do you mean that I'm so found of Rika-chan, she is just a friend." Replied Naruto.
"You may not realize it yet kit, but you have feelings for her. I have already started noticing the changes. Come to your mindscape and you will see what I mean. I will use a little of my chakra to keep your body going on the right track." Kurama explained as he sent some chakra into Naruto's body.
(Naruto's Mind)
Naruto appeared in the hallway of the sewer like mindscape he was used to. However there was no water on the floor and none dripping from the ceiling or walls like there usually was. Naruto made his way down the hall way until he came to the room that held the bijuu.
"What's with this place Kurama? It isn't as wet as it usually is in here." Asked Naruto.
"That is what I was talking about Naruto. This is the first time sense I have been sealed inside of you that your mindscape has changed. I believe it is because deep down in your heart, you know you are truly happy here with your new friends and more importantly the red haired vixen." Kurama explained as Naruto gained a confused look.
"But I don't understand why. I was happy back in Konaha with all my friends there. How come this never happened before?" Naruto asked confused as he looked around the room.
"We both know that is a lie kit. You hid behind that mask of pretend happiness so no one would ever see the true you. You may have thought and believed you were happy then but this change never occurred back in our home world now did it? This change only started when you met the other three tamers and got closer to each of them. I believe that as you get closer and form stronger bonds with the others, more change will happen. Besides, didn't your mother want you to find a nice girl and settle down anyways?" Chuckled Kurama as the blond blushed bright red at the last statement.
"You're right Kurama, I don't think I was ever truly happy back in Konoha. Maybe things will be different in this world. When do you think I should tell them?" Naruto asked the large fox.
"Tell the vixen first and tell her the next time you get the chance. You two have a lot more in common then you both realize right now. As for the other two, just tell them whenever you get them together so that way you won't have to tell her story more than once." Kurama explained
Naruto nodded in agreement with the fox before he started to slip out of his mindscape.
(Real World)
While Naruto and Kurama were having their conversation, Rika was lost in her own thoughts. She thought back to the parking garage and how afraid she was watching Gargomon come at her with his guns raised. She thought for sure she was going to die. Then she saw Naruto run towards her and get her away from the danger. She saw Renamon look back at her with a worried expression on her face.
"Does she really care about my safety? But she is just data, she can't have any type of feelings can she? If she digivolves, will she end up going on a rampage like Gargomon? Rika thought to herself as she felt someone gently shake her. Looking up, she saw a smiling Naruto with that fox like grin. She quickly looked away as a blush spread across her face. "What is wrong with me?"
Naruto gently set her on her feet and waited to see if she would be able to stand on her own. "Well now that I know you are home safely, I should head home myself and get some dinner for me and Coronamon. See ya later Rika-chan."
"Wait whiskers, why don't you join me and baa-chan for dinner tonight? She has been waiting for you to come back around." Rika asked.
"If it ain't a problem I would love too." Replied Naruto as he followed Rika through the front gate and into her house.
"Baa-chan I'm home." shouted Rika as she took her shoes off with Naruto doing the same.
"Welcome home Rika-chan. How was…" she stopped in the middle of her sentence as she came out of the kitchen and saw Naruto. "Well hello Naruto-kun, I'm glad to see you finally came back around. I thought you might have been scared of me." Seiko said with a laugh.
"I'm not afraid Seiko-san. I have just been busy with all my school work. I ran into Rika-chan earlier and walked her home and she asked if I would stay for dinner and I told her I would as long as I wasn't a bother to anyone." Replied Naruto.
"Non-sense Naruto-kun. You are always welcome in our home. If you ever need anything all you have to do is ask." Replied Seiko.
"Arigato Seiko-san." Naruto replied.
With that said, Naruto followed the two females into the kitchen and sat down at the table. The dinner was pleasant with small talk between the three of them trying to get to know each other better. After they were done eating, Rika led Naruto to the back yard. Naruto was amazed at how big their place really was. There was a large koi pond in the middle of the yard with a bridge across the middle. There were benches scattered around the area under a few of the trees that were growing. There were also flowers planted around the whole length of the fence surrounding the back yard. Rika walked over to one of the benches by the koi pond and sat down with Naruto joining her.
"Now is the time to tell her the truth kit. The longer you wait the harder it will get." Kurama said from within Naruto.
Naruto let out a sigh, which caught Rika's attention, and looked up at her. "Rika, there is something I need to tell you." Naruto said.
"Alright, and that would be?" Rika asked.
"I'm not from around here or any place close to here." Naruto said gaining a confused look from Rika.
"You already told me that whiskers."
"Rika, what I'm about to show and tell you, I need you to keep a secret and try not to be afraid of me." Naruto said as he stood and moved away from the bench and Rika.
Rika watched as Naruto closed his eyes as if he were trying to concentrate on something. What happened next really surprised Rika. Naruto started to glow orange as what looked like flames appeared and covered his body. She thought he would burn but he seemed perfectly fine. The glow surrounding him seemed to turn into a coat of sorts around his body with a black body suit on underneath before the glow subsided. Small black ball seemed to hover in the air behind him. His pupils changed and now had cross like slits in them and his whisker marks stood out a bit more.
Rika took in his presence as a new feeling entered her body. She didn't know what the feeling was or where it came from but all she knew was that she wanted the blond standing in front of her. It was taking everything she had not to jump him there and now. "What is this feeling? Is it because of the power he is putting off or what?" Thought Rika to herself.
Naruto held his Kyuubi Sage mode for a couple minutes letting Rika take in his appearance. With him being able to sense emotion, Naruto could feel the small amount of lust Rika had building inside her and canceled his technique before things got out of hand, much to Rika's disappointment.
"I think some explaining needs to be done whiskers." Rika said clearly confused at what she just saw.
"I will explain everything while showing you my memories. Some memories aren't the best but it will be the easiest way to explain everything. I need you to keep still and just listen as I do this, ok?" Naruto asked.
Rika just nodded in response and Naruto made a few hand signs and placed a finger on Rika's forehead. "Kitsune Style: Memory Transfer Jutsu." (Original Jutsu by the way) Naruto said as memories began traveling into Rika's mind. As this happened, Naruto explained each one to the best he could. From the day Kurama attacked and his birth, to him becoming a ninja, to the ninja war and his final fight with Sasuke, and then his time in the digital world and her own world.
By the time Naruto finished the jutsu and explanations, Rika had tears in her eyes. She was amazed at how much pain and suffering he had gone through and still managed to push on with a smile. She wasn't sure what to say so she just pulled him into a hug and asked "How?"
"How what?" replied Naruto.
"How could you go through all that and still be sane and happy?" Rika asked after letting the blond go.
"I had friends and loved ones that cared for me and I cared for them. I will always do whatever it takes to protect those that are precious to me and as long as they are happy then so am I." replied Naruto with a smile.
"Don't you want to go back home though?"
"At first I did but there is no way for me to get home so I might as well enjoy it while I live. Besides, I have people here I care for now." Naruto replied with a wink that caused Rika to blush.
There was silence between the two of them for a few minutes before Naruto spoke up. "Can I ask you a question Rika-chan?"
"Go for it whiskers."
"I saw pictures of you, Seiko-san, and another woman I assume is your mom. Where is your dad?" Naruto asked.
Rika wasn't expecting a question like that. She never talked about her dad to anyone. However, Naruto did trust her enough to talk to her so maybe she could trust the blond enough to talk to him.
"I don't know really. I was young when he left and I never figured out why. All I remember is one night I heard my mom and dad yelling at each other. When I went to see what was going on, they were both crying and wouldn't look at each other. Then dad just walked out the door and never returned. His name was Yusei Nonaka. (Yes I borrowed the name from yugioh) I wish I knew where he is or that he would come back but I just don't think that will ever happen." Rika explained with tears in her eyes.
Naruto placed an arm around Rika's shoulders and tried to comfort the young girl. They remained setting there in silence like that for about ten minutes.
"I have to go Rika-chan. If you need anything, call or text me." Naruto said as he pulled a slip of paper with his number, for the phone he got a few days ago, on it.
"Be careful whiskers. You never know when a digimon will pop up. See ya later." Rika said.
"I will be and I have Coronamon with me so it will be ok. Later." Naruto said as he turned the corner and headed for the gate. Just outside the gate, he was stopped by Seiko.
"Is there something I can do for you Seiko-san?" asked Naruto.
"I saw what you did out back Naruto-kun." This made Naruto freeze. "I just wanted to ask you to please take care of my granddaughter. I know of the kitsune that watches over her and I believe you have a guardian as well. I saw the power you had and I know you won't hurt Rika so I just ask that you please keep her safe. This is the first time that Rika has opened up to anyone since her father left many years ago." Seiko explained.
"I promise you Seiko-san, as long as I am around no harm will be done to Rika. And I never break a promise." Naruto replied.
"Thank you Naruto-kun. And don't worry, I will keep your secret safe." Seiko said as she hugged Naruto and made her way back inside.
Coronamon joined Naruto as the two of them made their way back to their apartment. The one thing no one noticed was a dark figure staring down at them from a nearby roof.
"So, he has feelings for the red haired girl. Maybe I can use her to my advantage then?" Thought the figure with a dark chuckle as he stepped inside the digi gate.
Here is chapter 4. Let me know what you all think about it. All reviews are welcome. I'm curious to see how many people try and guess who the new figure is and how many get it right.
DragonPony022, you are not allowed to leave your guess in reviews since you already know. No telling anyone. Lol that would be cheating.
There hasn't been much action yet but that should change in the next few chapters though. Now one more question. I am curious as to what everyone thinks. I already know what I'm gonna do but I want to know how many of you all would like to see a lemon or two between Naruto and Rika. Just let me know in the reviews or a PM.
