Outsider Chronicles: Swirling Dragon

Dieing and ending up in another world is one thing. That world being one of murder and war is quite another. Add in a grouchy mental roommate, a perverted fox and a brand new set of fluffy appendages and you have a recipe for headaches galore

And we are back for more! Enjoy!

Chapter 10

"Well, that was interesting," said Kakashi.

"Say what you want about Zabuza, but he was an honorable man at the end," said Tamamo as she walked up behind me.

"Yeah," I muttered, "But we're not done yet."

"Huh?"

"We still need to deal with that lot."

I pointed at the bandit army, who were starting to get agitated.

"Hey, what are we supposed to do now?!" demanded the bandit at the head of the army, "With Gato dead, how will we get payed?"

"Hey, I've got an idea," said another bandit, "Lets go raid the Village! We can get our paychecks from them! Plus, we can take Zabuza's head and claim his Bounty!"

"YEAH!"

"I got this," said Tamamo.

"Go for it," I said, "I need a bit of time to reform my Chakra anyway."

One of the side effects of using Senjutsu was that, while using it, I couldn't use Chakra and my Chakra was unstable for a few minutes afterwards, making using Jutsu rather hard. Tamamo smirked as she started walking towards the bandits, who didn't look that threatened.

"Well now, lookie here," sneered the leader, "Looks like this one wants to play."

Tamamo smiled.

"Yep, that I do," she said, flicking her wrists.

A pair of Ofuda snapped into her hands.

"Why don't you keep my pets company for a bit?" she said, "Come on out Madarao, Hakubi!"

The Tags vanished in two massive puffs of smoke that quickly cleared to reveal a pair of frankly massive wolves, one black with blue eyes, white paws, nose and tail tip and the other white with green eyes and gray spots on his fur.

"I haven't had chance to feed them in a while, so they're kinda hungry," said Tamamo with an evil grin, "Care to help out?"

The bandits started slowly backing away as the two massive Shikigami started stalking forwards, growling as drool leaked between their razor sharp teeth. To make matters worse, the drool hissed and started eating through the surface of the bridge wherever it fell. Needless to say, it didn't take long for the bandits to break and run with the massive mutts hot on their tail.

"Well, that was certainly an interesting trick," said Kakashi, "Was that a Summoning Jutsu?"

"Sort of," said Tamamo, "Although those are just constructs, not actual wolves."

"I see," said Kakashi, "One moment."

He walked over to where Zabuza was lying.

"Are we too late?"

I turned and rolled my eyes when I saw a mob of villages armed with whatever was at hand.

"Yes, we're just finishing up here," I said.

I turned my gaze on Team Seven. Much to my surprise, they were all where they were supposed to be, although it was clear that Sakura had been shaking in her boots. Sasuke on the other hand was staring at me with an odd look on his face. Not like he was about to storm over and demand my Jutsu, but rather one that said that he had no idea what to make of me.

I turned away from the Uchiha as Kakashi walked over and lay Zabuza down next to Haku. The Demon of the Mist was just barely alive.

"Thank you," he breathed, not taking his eyes of his student, "Haku...I'm so sorry. I wish...I wish I could have been more honest with you…"

He coughed up some blood.

"You didn't deserve to die, not for scum like me," he wheezed, "Still, at least you're in a better place now…"

He closed his eyes and let one last tear fall as he went limp. I bowed my head in respect.

ZZT!

I blinked. That was strange, I thought I felt a pulse of power.

"Hmm, this feeling," muttered Ddraig.

"Huh, whats up?" I asked.

ZZZT!

I twitched. Ok, I definitely felt something then. It was like a jolt of static traveling through my Chakra coils.

"Oh no...KID, GET AWAY FROM HER!" shouted Ddraig, making me jump.

"What? Why?"

"JUST DO IT!"

Without thinking, I jumped away from Haku, dragging Kakashi with me as I did. I was just in time too as a massive amount of energy suddenly erupted off Haku's body, rapidly drawing a large, glowing circle under her and pushing Zabuza away in the process.

"W-what the hell?!" gasped Kakashi, "Whats going on?!"

"Holy cow," I breathed, "I don't believe it…"

"Theres nothing holy about that kid," said Ddraig as Haku slowly lifted into the air, the glowing red King piece she'd been wearing as a charm floating directly in front of her chest over her heart, "I knew I sensed that energy before! But...how is that even possible?!"

"What are you talking about Ddraig? I asked, "How is what possible?"

"That power the girls giving off...its identical to HER!"

"Who her?" I asked as I glanced at the circle under Haku.

It was dark blue and was unlike anything I'd seen in this world. Sure, I'd created some myself, but that circle was not from any Youjutsu. In fact, considering the presence of the King Piece, I was willing to bet it was more to do with Devil Magic. I narrowed my eyes and took a closer look at the circle, more specifically the crest in the center.

"Sitri huh?" I muttered, "Well, I guess that makes sense…"

"Hey kid, if you want to know who it is I'm sensing, pay attention," said Ddraig.

"Huh? What do you mean?" I asked.

"Just watch."

I did just that as the King Piece slowly vanished into Haku's chest and a pair of bat-like wings snapped open on her back. The circle faded and Haku slowly floated back down to the bridge, dropping to her knees as her wings retracted. Her eyes slowly opened, revealing that they had changed from brown to purple. She blinked slowly and stretched, as if she was just waking up from a nap, before looking around.

"What...happened?" she asked, "I thought…"

"Wha...whats going on?" demanded Kakashi.

"I...think that her Bloodline might be responsible," I said slowly.

"Not quite," said Ddraig, "Although it is true that the Sitri blood flowing through her veins did have some affect, the actual cause of this is much more simple."

"Oh?" I said.

"Shes inherited the power and will of one of her ancestors," said Ddraig, "Similar to how individuals in the Senju and Uchiha clans inherit the power of Asura and Indra."

"Who?" I asked.

I got the distinct impression that Ddraig was giving me a flat look.

"Considering your luck, who do you think?" he growled.

it could be Sona, but that wouldn't induce10 enough of a headache for the cosmic bastards who seem to be playing with me," I muttered, "I don't think anyone in her Peerage would count, so maybe...OH!"

I snapped my fingers.

"Shes…"

I was cut off by the sound of tearing fabric.

"What was that?"

"Wha...how did…?" spluttered Ddraig.

"KYAAA!"

SPLAT!

My eye twitched as every male on the bridge collapsed with a nosebleed and Tamamo started giggling perversely.

"I'm not going to like what I see when I turn around, am I?" I asked.

"Probably not," said Ddraig, "I just want to know how the hell you managed to pull that off!"

I sighed and turned around...just in time to see a bright red Haku dropping too her knees, wrapping her arms around her (quite ample) chest as the remains of her clothes drifted to the floor. She hadn't been quite quick enough to stop me from catching a glimpse though and I was now struggling to control my own nosebleed.

"W-what the hell?!" spluttered Haku, "W-what happened to my clothes?"

CLONK!

"OW!"

"No perving on the cute Devil girl Naru-kun!" said Tamamo, who had just lobbed a paperweight at my head, "If you wanna see a girl naked, you only need to ask. And I'm sure Hina-chan would be happy to give you a peak."

"Tamamo, this really isn't good for my blood flow!" I yelled.

"Aww suck it up," said the Fox-girl, "I'll find her some new clothes."

She grabbed Haku and vanished in a puff of smoke.

"Well, that was a thing," I said.

"Indeed," said Kakashi, "Now then, lets get this cleaned up."

He pulled out a Kunai and removed Zabuza's head, before flipping through a set of signs and breathing out a blast of fire that quickly reduced him to ashes. The head would be returned to the Mist so they knew they could call off the Hunter Nin. Standard practice when dealing with dead Missing Nin, even those we didn't technically kill.

"Here," I said, handing Kakashi a Sealing Scroll.

"Thanks," said the Jonin, sealing the head and sword in the scroll.

"I'm gonna go check on Haku," I said, "She was...pretty messed up when I beat her and I highly doubt that dying, coming back to life and finding that Zabuza is dead helped that."

"Nor being randomly stripped," snickered Kakashi.

I rolled my eyes.

"Get going Naruto, my team and I can handle things here," said Kakashi.

I nodded and vanished in a fire Shunshin.

I reappeared at Tazuna's house where I could sense Haku and Tamamo had gone and stepped inside. Just inside, I was met with one of Tamamo's Shadow Clones.

"How is she?" I asked.

"Surprisingly chipper," said the Clone with a smirk that spelt trouble for me, "Shes rather shaken from coming back to life and Zabuza's death certainly didn't help, but she's much more together and far less down than I was expecting. Apparently, she's regained something she didn't know she was missing."

"Well, that makes sense," said Ddraig, "Although I would like to know how in the world half her Soul ended up in that King Piece."

"I don't think I want to know," I muttered.

Tamamo's clone raised an eyebrow.

"Do you know something I don't?" she asked.

"Haku is apparently the reincarnation of someone Ddraig knew a very long time ago," I said.

"Oh? Who?"

I opened my mouth to respond, but before I could, the door to the living room opened and a oddly happy looking Haku came out in a brand new outfit that was completely unlike her old one. For starters, there was no longer any doubt she was a girl and for another, she was wearing pink. Specifically, a pink shirt with a white colour that showed off her stomach, a pink ribbon around her neck and a short, pink skirt, along with pink and black striped stockings that reached her thighs, black fingerless gloves and a pink hat. She was also carrying a staff with a star on the top and a pair of bat wings sticking out the sides. All in all, she looked like a pink version of my Kyuu-chan form.

"Er, where did she get that outfit?" asked Ddraig as I started rubbing my temples.

"No idea," said Tamamo as her clone dispersed, "So, what was that you were saying about her being a reincarnation?"

Haku blinked.

"Wait, what?" she asked.

"Ohhh, this is gonna be fun," I muttered, "Haku, the reason you are so powerful in Ice and Water techniques isn't just because you are a member of the Yuki clan, but also because you're the reincarnation of Serafall Leviathan, one of the Four Great Satans."

And done. Well, a surprising number of people figured out that Haku had an Evil Piece, but no one got exactly what I had in mind right. Not that I blame them since it was pretty much impossible. Now, I've been holding this in long enough, so…

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA, HOW'D YA LIKE THAT?! Don't worry though, Haku is no where near as strong as Serafall...yet. She will however develop a fair number of Serafalls personality traits, not limited to her dress sense.

Hmm, maybe I should give Tamamo a Magical Girl costume too. That way I could do Jiraiya's reaction to having three hot magical girls around. Plus, now Naruto's a Kitsune, he can actually shapeshift into Kyuu-chan rather than it just being an illusion…

Yes, that was Dress Break. Naruto may not be a perv like Issei, but he had to inherit something from him. Plus, it'll be fun for the future.

Madarao and Hakubi are based on the dogs from Kakkishi, although I'm not adding that world before anyone asks. I just needed some ideas for some Shikigami for Tamamo to use and remembered them.

And done. Don't forget to leave a review on the way out!
