High School and Aliens
Chapter 12: Study and Investigation

Beta by MasamuneX23 and thankful he still agrees to help me out in all of this fun of writing stories so again thanks MasamuneX23
XChapter StartX
"Soooo…why am I in a tank with a breathing mask?" Naruto asked as he and the Deviluke siblings along with Mikado were in the lab. Yami was also there as she didn't want to be bored and was curious like the cats she liked to feed now and again. After dinner Lala had asked him to come to the lab so they could run a full scan so as to solve Naruto's issue of immortality and see what results they could achieve.
"Well the mask is obviously for you to breathe when the tank fills up with water. Before you ask anything, the water is going to have a fair number of nanobots that require a certain environment to survive. They'll be doing a lot of the scanning of your internal workings." Mikado said as she helped configure the settings. "Still it might be easier if you weren't in those shorts."
"I refuse to be naked in front of you Mikado-sensei, let alone Lala-chan's sisters who barely know me. Yami I'm ok with as we get along and Lala-chan with Peke are a given. So sorry I'm not giving you or anybody here a show." Naruto said in basically nothing but a pair or swim shorts and his new necklace from Lala's father.
'Darn.' A couple of minds thought to themselves as they looked over Naruto's form despite the numbering scars on his back and chest.
"Man it's like dad when we saw him after his day at war, still surprises me that a human being could survive some of the ones you've got." Nana said currently holding one of the innocent little foxes from the den under the house. They were much cuter and better behaved than Kurama that was for sure.
"When you're me, things happen, injuries was just one of the minor things while I did my best to keep up appearances. Hell I spent a decade or several as a woman just to see the difference." Naruto shrugged getting odd looks from the women.
"You can shape shift?" Mikado said surprised as most races with that ability were weak so for such a strong person like Naruto to have it was a bit of a shock, Yami's powers only let her change so much, mainly converting her body to weapons to change her whole anatomy, Ren/Run were the exception due to them being two different people really.
"Basically, used to do it for pranks but later I perfected it so it's a complete change. First time I did full conversion was really weird as I had things I had seen but never had." Naruto said looking down at himself in slight memory but noticing the water wasn't' coming up yet. "Sigh… do I need to show you all when I'm done in here?" there were nods from everyone, even Kurama himself on Mikado's shoulder.
"Hmm…we could take him shopping in case he needs to change into his girl form?" Mikado suggested as Naruto banged on the glass and started shouting but no sound was coming through.
"Oh look at that the mute function is on, what a shame. Still I'm sure Naruto agrees." Momo said as she turned a dial and the water started to fill the tank to the top so that Naruto floated and kept glaring at Momo and Mikado. The two of them were devious and were no doubt plotting against him.
His cat ears were twitching madly as both women giggled, he hadn't figured out how to hide them yet so they still made even his sternest glare pretty much adorable to all of them, even Yami who looked tempted to pet him.
"Beginning scanning process." Momo said as a holographic image of Naruto started forming from a display plate while Mikado read off the readings.
"Hmm brain waves much higher than humans of today, most likely to help channel and control the pathways for his natural energy, chakra I think it was." Mikado noted as the chakra pathways were visible on the image.
His bones and muscles are very dense but work at optimal rates, no signs or tearing despite his body's injuries, how good is his regeneration? Do we know if he can grow back a limb?" Momo asked Kurama as he would know best.
"Hmm, that's not a situation that I really remember ever happening. He can regrow his organs easily as now again he's been hit there. I'd guess that he could but I doubt he'd volunteer to let someone test the theory." Kurama said honestly surprised Naruto hadn't blown his arm or hand off at some point, especially during cooking, the early days of it at least.
"Hmmm his body gives out more electrical output as well, could probably power a number of things with him alone." The more they learned the more surprising it was that Naruto's biology hadn't been discovered by her already as she had been around him for a while, heck the fact he was never tired after P.E. could have been a sign.
"His skin is soft but looking at this it would take a lot of strength to cut through it, does his skin adapt to force delivered at one time?" Momo questioned the fox again.
"Well yeah Naruto's thick skinned, his body does adapt to most things, took a few decades for his body to be more durable to bullets, take a high caliber round to get through at point blank. It's the same with poisons, once ingested his immune system kicks in and takes it out as chakra breaks it down and takes a part of the dead poison to grow immunity to it, same for viruses and bacteria. But can I ask a question, how do those new ears of his affect him?" Kurama asked as Naruto floated in the water tank.
"The ears have perfectly fused now, they have connected and created some nerve to his brain and specifically the hearing part of it so they are fully functioning ears, it might affect his balance if he hears high pitched noises but with his immunity system his ears might adapt quickly. They are very sensitive though, much like an actual cat, the person who made those ears is a genius, to craft an unnatural feature so seamlessly and with no ill effects is a breakthrough." Mikado explained as Naruto reached to his ears and felt the now wet fur of them.
"I have his energy reading, plus his entire body works. Begin draining the tank." Momo said as Mikado pulled the lever which opened the vents at the bottom to take out the water in the tank before the glass went down allowing Naruto to remove his mask as Lala handed him a towel which he quickly dried his hair with being careful with the ears.
"Ergh these ears don't feel nice when wet, I guess that's why cats don't like water." Naruto said as he wiped down his torso and arms and faced the women. "So anything else you need to test?"
"Yes, I remember when those assassins came on the rough you used a strange gravity based technique, how were you able to do that?" Mikado questioned as Naruto closed his eyes before opening revealing his Rinnegan, it was amazing he had it considering how usually it was an evolution of the sharingan. "What peculiar eyes."
"The Rinnegan, Eyes of the Six Paths and the Rikudo Sennin. I developed them a fair bit in my first century, learning and mastering them finished that century and made way into the next." Naruto said as Lala, Yami and Momo took a good look into the purple ringed eyes.
"What other abilities do they provide?" Momo asked very curious over the small yet obviously powerful change in Naruto.
"A number of things, control of gravity is part of them. Absorption of energy, mind reading and ability to tell if anyone is lying perfectly, soul grabbing and I'm being literal I can grab the soul. There's also summoning of different creatures of the summoning realm but I don't use it as much since the realms tend to have regular sized animals and the others I rather not summon. And lastly the ability to grown extra arms and change them into weapons." Naruto listed off as Yami came over intrigued by the last power.
"Show me." Naruto looked to the blond assassin before shrugging as he concentrated and metal formed over his arms and stretched over to just past his shoulders and two extra limbs protruded out of his back very close to his actual shoulder joints.
"Do you feel everything they touch?" Yami asked as her own hair turned to hands and moved to shake the hands of Naruto's and noted the equally strong grip on the arms so even though they were newly formed they weren't weak at all.
"They are impressive, no doubt your body compensates for their creation, do they bleed?" Mikado asked looking over the arms with her critical eyes.
"They can if I don't have the armour covering them but I tend not to have them unprotected." Naruto said reabsorbing his arms back and the armour disappearing back into his skin. "I can use some more powerful jutsu as I can do multiple hand seals, but it's easier to turn them into laser canons, and no I'm not showing you that."
He could literally hears whines of disappointment from almost all the girls, Nana was just curious to see him summon animals, she knew earth had a lot of nice creatures which she was interested in talking to. "Anyway I'm shirtless and looking at the time, I need to make some food." Naruto said stepping out the room and everyone following as he picked up a shirt before heading downs stairs, slipping on some jogging pants for decency's sake.
'Knock, knock!' the sound was heard as Naruto got his utensils out for cooking and still having the shirt hanging on his shoulder went to answer the door as it was probably Zastin. However when he opened the door he was proven wrong.
"Mikan-chan?" Naruto said surprised as opening the door revealed the younger of the Yuuki siblings whose eye were now transfixed on Naruto's abs. she never really got a chance to see them this close and a part of her mind was creating a mental folder labelled 'For later use.'
'Is she drooling?' Naruto thought before moving his hand to snap his fingers at the girl bringing her interesting thought to an abrupt end and turned her eyes up at Naruto, whose ears looked interested.
"Ah Naruto-nii, sorry I hope I didn't catch you at a bad time or something. I mean, I just, never mind!" she turned to leave looking like a chilly pepper with the amount of red in her face, which was not helped by Naruto's strong yet gentle hand grabbing her.
"Hold your horses Mikan-chan, you don't need to run off for anything." Naruto quickly slipped the black shirt on and turned the girl around who was tempted to pout at the now shirt covered Naruto. "Now what had you coming over here for, had another idea for pranking Rito?"
"Um, no we still have the one for Saturday anyway. No I wanted to see the cat ears I heard about from Rito when he came back from school… are they really permanent and Lala-san's an alien?" she spoke remembering that massive bit of information her brother let slip to her while they had been chatting last night.
"Yeah…they are here for life, and yes Lala's an alien too, along with Zastin and her sisters." Naruto said sighing and rubbing the top of his head.
"Wait sisters?" Mikan tilted her head a bit confused.
"Oh yeah, I forgot you didn't know Lala's siblings came the other day. You can meet them if you want; it's Rito's turn to cook tonight right?" Mikan nodded as she walked inside and quickly found a small fox jumping up at her and licking her face.
"Ah, stop it, hehehe~ that tickles." Mikan giggles as the fox nuzzled its head into her cheek.
"Oi Kuri, where'd you go?" Nana's voice could be heard at the top of the stairs. "Oh Naruto have you seen Kuri, my fox?"
"She's down here with one of my neighbours, she wants to meet you and Momo." Naruto said as Nana came down the stairs now wearing some khaki pants and pink top with spaghetti straps over her shoulder and white shoes. Turns out Mikado had been shopping when they were at school, it was stranger that practically no one turned up while she was simply shopping online, and with that day delivery too. Just a skill of an experienced shopper he guessed, as both sister were surprised and delighted when they open the packages and found clothes that were perfect for them and the correct size.
Naruto had thankfully paid the tab as he was going to anyway when Mikado told him when they got inside the house. "Hey there, I'm Nana Deviluke, Lala's little sister." Nana waved thankful for seeing a regularly built girl as opposed to the other well stacked women in the house.
"Oh hi, I'm Yuuki Mikan, I'm Rito's sister. We've lived next door to Naruto for a while now. I take it she is yours?" Mikan gestured to Kuri as Nana nodded whistling making the female fox jump back and wrap herself around Nana's neck.
"Is she Kurama's?" Mikan asked wondering if that mischievous fox had ended up having kits when she wasn't looking or knowing and if there were any more adorable kits.
"Heck no, as if that perverted fox could produce something so cute and innocent." Nana said sharply as she cuddled Kuri to her cheek who was lapping up the attention after Nana had spoken to her and asked if she'd be her friend.
"I take offence to that statement." Naruto found Kurama hopping up to his shoulder and staring down at the Yuuki sibling. "I'm not perverted; I'm a fox who has a healthy admiration of the female form. And I'm perfectly innocent I have never done anything shameful."
"Cough-bullshit-cough." Naruto said smirking despite Kurama's tail hitting him in the back of the head.
"Hello Kurama-kun." Mikan waved to the fox slightly more used to the talking fox now, hell she accepted the fact that Lala and her sisters were aliens, from what she saw they all had those cute tails. "How are you?"
"I'm fine Mikan, just annoyed at the pettanko slandering my name and I'll have you know that if I have kits they'll be plenty innocent like little Kuri there." Kurama said as Kuri turned to her technically new uncle as far as she saw it.
"Yip!" Kuri cried out from her position on Nana's shoulder clearly at Kurama.
"Your father is just as perverted as any fox, clearly you just don't see it little one." Kurama chided as Kuri said her father wasn't a pervert, a clear lie in Kurama's mind having been a fox for a lot longer.
"Yip, Yip!"
"I do not, honestly who ever taught you what that means?" Naruto knew it was better to not translate what the fox said.
"Please stop arguing with Kuri, Kurama I don't need a headache and Mikan-chan doesn't need to be scared more than she already has by you talking." Naruto said as he gestured for Mikan to follow as he went to the kitchen to make tea. "So, anything you specifically want to ask?"
"Do you purr if someone scratches behind your ears?" Mikan questioned having often thought Naruto was a little like a fox or a cat as a result of his whisker marks and became a debate between her and her mother Ringo as to which he was more like, Ringo saying fox and Mikan saying cat. Considering the development she might be winning the debate very soon, if she could get a good picture of it.
"…Yes…"Naruto said as he hanged his head hearing the question knowing that all his friends from Saki to Risa would likely continue to try and make him purr, most likely succeeding too. "But you can't scratch them now to see if it is true regardless."
Mikan pouted hearing this as she really wanted to see how soft they were and make him purr. He had embarrassed her enough times that she wanted some retribution, plus the fact she could be so close to his face was a bonus if she could swing it her way. "No fair~" she whined a little hearing him deny her chances.
"They are sensitive since they are new Mikan-chan, I don't want them abused too much too soon. Also I don't want you blabbing and causing me to get more fangirls, I saw too may already." There really was nothing more frightening at times that a stampede of fangirls wanting to pet him and/or molest him. At least Risa was his friend already when she tried to grope and molest him.
"Can I at least feel the fur then?" Naruto who had been distracted turned back to Mikan who had pulled out her Puppy Dog Eyes technique on him and due to her young age it was very effective. Maybe it was because of his recent revelations but he felt himself succumb to the cute look and gave a small minor nod as she smile brightly and made her way around to lightly touch his ears and feel the texture of them… they were really nice, a lot softer than the cats she's petted at the pet store when her friends dragged her along.
Knowing she couldn't scratch behind them Mikan seeing an opportunity reached with her hand to rub his whisker marks which unfortunately for Naruto made him let out a tiny purr from the back of his throat. "Mikan-chan!" he cried out as the girl blushed at the cute noise he made, especially since it was just from touching his birthmarks. "No touching the whiskers!" he said as she smiled down with a cat like grin.
"Oh Naruto-nii, why do you say that when you gave such a nice response from them." Yeah she was so going to use this for as long as she could when she had the chance.
"It's a reflex, the marks are sensitive too." He said trying to save a little of his dignity or rather his image which seemed to deteriorate with his friends more and more now.
"Naruto-kun!" Lala's cheerful voice rang out as she quickly hopped onto his back, wrapping her legs around his waist while her arms went round his neck, settling her head into the crook of his neck. "Can we have some taiyaki tonight, Yami-chan said she'd like some?"
"Sure I'll get round to it later, Mikan-chan's here by the way." Naruto said making his fiancé turn to the young girl.
"Hi Mikan!" Lala waved with one of her hands not moving from her comfy position. Mikan offered a small wave in reply as she spotted Lala's tail again, now that she knew she was an alien she couldn't help but be a little more curious about her and Nana's tails. She kind of wanted one, they looked really cute and maybe useful for carrying stuff.
One must wonder what she'd think if she knew the extra feature of deviluken tails?
"Hi Lala, where is Yami?" Mikan had seen the blonde girl before and wanted to chat with her.
"Hmm, Yami-chan? She'll be down soon I think she was just finishing something with Momo and Mikado-sensei." Lala explained as she nuzzled Naruto's face a little, much to her and a little his joy. Kurama was just giggling to himself while Nana shook her head as did Kuri at the male fox.
"Ara, ara it seems we have another guest, Yuuki-san's younger sibling it seems." Mikado said coming through the door with Momo.
"Hello Mikado-sensei… are you Nana-san's elder sibling?" Mikan's innocent question had Kurama laughing quiet loudly before he was hit in the head by a rice cracker, he kept laughing despite the large bump on his head. "What? What's so funny?" Mikan asked as a few others (Naruto, Momo and Mikado) were giggling but more subtly.
"Momo's the youngest sibling technically. She and Nana are twins but not identical as you can tell." Naruto said standing up to make some more tea while the final member of the house, bar Zastin, came in.
"Hello there Mikan-san." Yami greeted taking the now empty seat left by Naruto.
"Oh hi Yami-san, how are you?" Mikan asked as the red eyed girl looked up at the curious expression on the young girl's face.
"I am well Mikan-san, I take it you are as well?" Yami replied in her usual even tone while Naruto returned with more cups for tea and placing Kurama in Mikado's waiting arms, she was the best for making sure he behaved now days.
"Yeah I'm fine, but I was wondering Yami-san. Do you want to go shopping with me on the weekend, I mean I'd go with my friends but I sort of want a different opinion as your outfit is so cool." Mikan couldn't help but admire Yami as she'd seen her use her powers once and wondered what it was like to have and look so stylish in the outfit she always wore.
"I am not the right person Mikan-san, Princess might be better suited over the devious one." Momo felt a small twitch in her cheek as she knew that was directed at her. "Perhaps even Uzumaki could accompany you?"
Mikan's response to this suggestion was to go red at the very idea of Naruto looking for clothes of all sorts. Plus if anyone saw her with him from her school they'd know this was the handsome guy Mikan raved about from time to time. Not to mention if her father found out, she'd never hear the end of it then.
She didn't even want to consider the idea of her mother finding out, she still didn't know Naruto was engaged as Naruto swore her father to secrecy on pain of not helping him or worse. Plus it's not like Naruto actually would consider, "Sure I'll take her."
"WHAT?!" Mikan cried in shock at Naruto acceptance to take her shopping, not that she minded as he was fairly stylish despite the minor (cough) addiction to the colour orange.
"I said I'll take you shopping with Yami when we get the chance, Yami you need some extra clothes as I saw you've accidently cut a few up when I was doing the laundry." Naruto said as likely Yami didn't consider actually wearing them and opted to cut them up or the more likely cut them with her deadly hair accidently while punishing perverted behaviour.
He didn't have too much of a problem with that, just that she could be more careful with her use of her Trans ability.
"Hmmm…you could get some swimwear probably as it'll be soon be the holidays." Mikado suggested getting an odd look from Naruto.
"It's nearly winter season Mikado I don't think swimwear is the best." Naruto had no idea why the women suggested that aside from the obvious reason.
"Maybe you'll win that holiday prize to a tropical island that the lottery have in the market. No one has won it yet, so who knows, maybe you'll win and have an excuse to buy swimwear." Mikado suggested as Naruto suddenly was hit with the feeling that his powerful luck was now in cahoots with the forces of perversion.
"Well…let's hope for beach time holiday, I love tropical resorts an time. Sun, shade, booze and plenty of flesh on view." Kurama said in the vicinity of Mikado's cleavage making her giggle and hold him closer to them.
"Yip, Yip!" Kuri cried out as she jumped to a now crying Naruto.
"Yes Kuri-chan, the perverted one is terrible and sadly he might just get his wish." Naruto hugged the little fox who licked his cheek in sympathy. Kuri liked Naruto more as he was a lot more gentle and not acting like he was in heat despite the potential mates hanging around him all the time.
XBreakX
"I hate Murphy's Law." Naruto moaned as they came back from shopping where Mikado's prediction had come true and he'd gotten tickets to a tropical resort and extra for at least ten people. Leaving him with the arduous task of choosing the ten from his group of friends to take with him on the trip.
"I knew your luck was good Naruto-kun but you only spun it once, and then got the secondary prize of a year's worth of rice and the fifty limited edition kobe beef ramen cups." Mikan said having seen Naruto pay for three tries and get the golden and red balls out of the lottery machine. She now understood why her father didn't like to play money with Naruto at his poker game nights.
"It is enlightening to see such fortune affecting someone so much. I've never seen anything like it during my life." Yami said while eating her small snack of dango which Naruto had bought for her. She enjoyed any of the new snacks she got to try when she was out with him.
"And I have no control over it either, my luck is great power but also a little bit of a curse. I'm sure I'd be banned from all casinos if they knew I had this much natural luck." As a matter of fact Naruto had once been to Monte Carlo and had indeed gotten banned when under a different identity.
"So…I take it you won?" Mikado asked with a small innocent smirk as Naruto nodded his head as he slumped down on the coach and took out an envelope and tossed it to the woman. "An all-expenses paid trip to a tropical island, for yourself and ten other people. When do I need to pack for?" she asked as Naruto groaned making her giggle.
"Don't tease him Mikado-san… Naruto-kun's feeling a little rough." Mikan asked politely of the woman who gave the girl a small nod and wink.
"Of course, anything for a young lady in love."
"Wha-wha-wha?! D-Don't say things like that Mikado-san, you shouldn't be telling lies!" Mikan shouted with a cherry face while Lala came into the room and quickly snuggled into Naruto's side as 'Magical Girl Kyouko' came on, looked as though despite his future and the time to get everything sorted he'd made good time on his trip.
They had gone shopping for Mikan first and because he was the millionth customer since the store opened all purchases were half off so Mikan made a killing getting some nice designer stuff for her and Yami. Said assassin had managed to pick out a few items of clothing that Mikan had agreed would look cool on her.
"About time she started making her claim, still she has a lot of competition." Kurama laughed t himself before a coach cushion hit him in the face knocking him from his comfy position on the table. "Why do all the women have such good aim."
"Inherited skill to battle perverts?" Momo suggested aloud picking up the poor fox and holding him to her chest and stroking his head. "Still you do ask for it not being alert for attacks."
"But I'm so handsome…" Kurama gave Momo his big puppy eyes and she patted his head in sympathy.
"True but no matter how handsome a pervert is still a pervert. If anything the fact that you are so handsome Kurama-kun, makes it a little worse." Momo said knowing in her mind he was more cute than handsome but she didn't want to hurt his feelings. Still he was helpful in plotting for the plan, his insight was helping her and Mikado a fair amount.
Who knew Naruto had a number of fetishes?
"Well at least you and Mikado respect and love me right Momo?" Kurama was answered by Momo holding him a little closer and kissing the top of his furry head.
"So the trip leaves on the Saturday and it's a bank holiday weekend too so at least you have a little time to plan out what you'll need and also call up everyone you want to bring." Mikado said wondering how may would try and entice him if they could reveal so much of their flesh, plus since he came back he was opening up a little more. The most evident example, being him not minding Lala coming into his bed and actually staying in bed with her a few minutes extra.
"Oh great, I have to try and pick out a number of my friends without upsetting any f the others. I mean all the girls in the house will be coming. I know Zastin has work so he won't mind being left behind but that's four already." Naruto was rubbing his head not really wanting to upset any of his friends. Rito and Haruna would be ok as they could spend some time together without being teased and hopefully make them less nervous around each other. Kenichi was easy as he knew he was heading to a convention on the weekend in the hopes of meeting a hot cosplayer, he was hoping for fifteenth time lucky.
That left the arduous task, of picking which of his other female friends could come and how would he tell the ones that were not coming without upsetting them. While his mind tried to think of a half decent way of picking he felt his phone vibrating and looked to see that it was Rin calling him. "Hmm Rin, what's up?"
"Naruto I'm not disturbing you am I?" the bodyguard asked in her usual polite tone that came when she spoke to him.
"No, not really. Has something happened?" Usually Rin had only called when she was making sure their usual soars were still on.
"Well Saki-sama recently learned about some of the rumors surrounding the old school building." Naruto shuddered a little, as the old building was said to have ghost haunting it and Naruto much to Kurama's immense enjoyment and his slight shame was still afraid of ghosts. "Well Saki-sama had decided she had to know everything there was about the school. However Risa-san had overheard her and said she wanted to tag along and see what all the hype about the old building was about."
"Where are you going with this Rin?" Naruto had a feeling where this would end and he was praying that it wasn't what he was thinking.
"Saki-sama already elected to go off to the building with Aya, I'd like for you to meet up with me and make sure she remains safe at the old school building. Can you help me out with this Naruto, it would mean a lot to me and Saki-sama would no doubt be happy that you are there too." Naruto knew she was playing on his good will, if unintentionally but he knew he would be going to help out Rin looking after Saki.
"…what time is everyone heading down to the building Rin?" Naruto asked feeling a slight headache coming on.
"She and Risa-san, Mio-san, Kotegawa-san and Run-san should be there after sunset this evening." Rin explained knowing he'd be coming now since his other friends were there.
"That's in just over two and a half hours… I'll be there."
"I'm coming to Rin, I wanna see if theres a ghost now." Lala said having heard everything with being so close.
"Well then see you soon Naruto, Lala-san." The call ended and Naruto let out a small breath really not liking how he had to go to a basically a haunted old building. It wasn't his fault he was scared of ghosts still, he'd faced enough beasts and all sorts of evil men but his childhood fear of ghosts remained throughout all his life. Kurama once joked that even if Naruto was in his most powerful state that a ghost would make him lose completely.
XBreakX
"So this is the old building… I wonder why it hasn't been knocked down by the school board?" Naruto wondered aloud standing with the group of himself, Lala, Risa, Mio, Yui, Saki, Rin, Aya. Risa had also somehow managed to convince Haruna to come who was currently hugging Rito's arms like a vice grip as she too was scared of ghosts. Not that Rito was much better holding onto his frying pan for deer life.
"Really Naruto-kun, we're possibly going to meet a ghost and that's what you say." Risa said with her hands on her hips still in her uniform as it seems she'd not gone home to change like the rest of them. "And what's with those?"
Risa was pointing to several ofuda Naruto was holding in his hands. "Just in the event there is a ghost that needs to pass on, that's all. I'm just being prepared." Naruto said a little quickly with a small trickle of sweat down the back of his neck.
"Is something the matter Naruto, you seem oddly nervous?" Rin asked getting discreet nods of agreement from the group as they started walking into the building.
"No, why would I be nervous. It's only a very old building that might have spirits in it but are most likely not there." Naruto said as Rin blinked seeing a different side to Naruto. Excluding his panic attack with Run of course it was the first time she'd see him so uneasy like he was afraid.
"It can't be…" Rin muttered to herself which no one heard as they continued inside of the building making Naruto's hair stand on end. Although it was hard to tell with how spiky the darn golden locks were already.
"Naruto-kun?" Saki called to him getting close to his free arm as Lala was happily holding his right hand. "Is it possible that you are scared of the rumours of the ghosts?" the sweating in Naruto's face became much more noticeable once Saki had uttered the word ghost. Even his ears were displaying his fear in their down turned position on his head.
"Wh-What makes you say that?" the small stammer Naruto made was a big sign for all of them as Naruto didn't stammer, even when exposed to many of his female friends beautiful bodies, Lala being the only exception to date.
"Oh my gosh, he totally is scared!" Risa shouted pointing to Naruto who looked at her with a wide eyed expression and fitting like a startled kitten. "This is gold, who would have thought Naruto-kun would have such an adorable childish fear."
"It's not childish!" Naruto said somehow now having several more ofuda in his hand and a rope around the arm Lala was holding. "Ghosts can be very malicious and you can't touch them, plus they can possess people so it's perfectly natural to be wary of them." Naruto defended himself but unable to stop looking so endearing to the girls as they just wanted to hug him and sooth him now.
'Clack!' came a sound from one of the rooms and the climate of the group changed as they all slowly turned their heads in the direction of the noise.
"What was that?" Asked a worried Haruna as she buried her face into Rito's back to hide from whatever was out there.
'Clack, clack, clack!' whatever it was seemed to be getting louder and quite possibly closer as the group ducked into one of the side rooms to hide. Lala had given up her hold on Naruto's arm as she honestly wanted to see the ghost and get a close up viewing of it.
"There's just no way… I mean this couldn't be an actual…?" Risa said to herself as the sound got louder and a shadow could be seen in the screen of the door. As the door slid slightly open Naruto acted in haste throwing out his rope in a skilled manor while tossing his ofuda.
In less than ten seconds the figure coming through the door had very intricate knots going all over their form, constricting their movements while the ofuda also sealed their sound as it covered its mouth. When everyone had gotten a good luck though it wasn't any sort of ghost or other paranormal figure Naruto had caught. It was actually Run who looking now, appeared to have been given a shibari rope tying experience as the bonds were over her breasts tightly against her body and had several knots, a few of which went beneath her legs and any movement was causing a slight sensation in her loins.
"Eh…Run-chan?" Naruto said now out of his ghostly panicked state and realizing who he had ensnared in his sealing rope. "Are you alright?" he asked hearing a muffled moan over his ofuda.
"Naruto-kun…what sort of shameless thing have you done to Run-san?" Naruto looked down at the girl again and noticed a red face before in front of everyone, gaining a pink hue in his cheeks.
'HE'S BLUSHING!' This night was turning out to be a big eye opener to Naruto as it seemed he could get embarrassed and by looking at the knots on the girl on the floor an expert in shibari play.
"Ah this isn't what it looks like, I thought it was a ghost so I used some Shinto exorcising rope and ofuda to detain a spirit, but I looks like I accidently got run-chan instead." Naruto quickly released run from his ropes with a finger coated I a pin sized blade of wind.
Run let out a small whine as she was released and her mouth unsealed before she looked up at Naruto with equally pink cheeks. "Naruto-kun, what skill, it felt so tight yet not too uncomfortable… how did you do it?"
"I find myself curious as well Naruto; I couldn't even follow the rope as he made it around Run-san. Did you practice rope tying at a young age?" Rin tilted her head as she picked up a piece of the now loose rope.
"Uzumaki has many skills that are useful." Said a monotone voice and turned to see Yami a hint of her wings disappearing from her Trans ability. "But I didn't expect you to act so rashly Uzumaki. I thought you could distinguish between your friends."
"Ah Yami-chan, Naruto-kun is afraid of ghosts so he's a little on edge." Yami stared at Naruto after Lala revealed his fear.
"That…is unexpected of you Uzumaki, it seems a little odd to have such a fear." Naruto hung his head a little.
"I can't help it, its just such an unnatural phenomenom."
"Naruto-kun, you live with a talking fox, a giant plant in your back garden and a house full of aliens, how can you see ghosts in such a way?" Yui questioned seeing the slight irony of Naruto's issue with ghosts or fear of them as opposed to something like Kurama. The little fox was terrible, especially once she learned the canine could talk.
She truly understood why her senses told her to stay away from such a shameless beast which was quite close to Naruto. It was a bit of a shock that he was so close to such a perverted creature.
"I can easily explain all if those things, there is nothing proven on the existence of ghosts." Naruto said with his head still hung.
'Leave…'
'Leave…'
'Leave…'
Naruto's ears perked up in surprise as the soft voice passed through the room they were in. "Wh-What was that, that's wasn't one of you messing with me right?" Naruto asked as they shook their head.
"Th-th-then it's a real ghost?" Rito said shrinking along with his girlfriend held close.
"Yukki-kun…I'm scared." Haruna said burying her face into his arm, shutting her eyes closed.
'Leave…if you don't…' the large sound of creaking could be heard before the wood floor beneath them literally collapsed in on itself sending a number of the group falling down.
XBreakX
'Ok, that wasn't a ghost. This is just an old building that was bound to break down in some areas given enough time. Nothing creepy that is a result of a ghost.' Naruto thought despite the small pain on his back and chest from the minor fall. Kurama would be laughing so hard if he knew the age old master ninja Naruto was had not landed on his feet when he fell down.
Even more so now, considering his feline features.
"Oww, stupid old building." Nauto groaned out in a little pain trying to get up and lifted his face but felt something soft. Opening his eyes he found a pair of cream panties that had frills on them. 'Whose are these?' Naruto wondered moving his head back out of the soft flesh of the butt cheeks of whoever was on top him.
"Itetete…that was odd. Luckily it seemed I have landed on something soft." The figure on top raised her head and looked down to see a pair of legs before turning round to look at what she was on. "Epp! Naruto-kun!" Saki said from her position blushing a little. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah I'm fine, you ok Saki-chan?" Saki got up from her place on Naruto and helped him to his feet. He stretched his back hearing a little crack as everything righted itself. "Who else fell down here?"
"I'm here Naruto-kun." Lala's voice called as she got to her feet rubbing her derriere and next to her was Yui and Aya. "Is Saki-chan ok too?"
"I am perfectly fine Lala-san, Naruto-kun managed to catch my fall. As always he serves as a perfect gentleman." Saki said placing her hands on her hips and turning her nose up as she always seemed to do when she wanted to make a point. It was rather cute to Naruto who was reminded a little of Koyuki and her daughter Haru who like her mother was a princess but was so cute when she was young.
"Well that is how Naruto is, did you land on your feet to catch her?" Saki's cheeks tinted red recalling the brief position she was in a moment ago, slightly thankful that the dust concealed her from the others.
"Saki-sama, it's good that you are ok. Thank you for looking after her Uzumaki-kun." Aya said bowing to Naruto before coming back up and straightening her glasses but noticed something.
"Aya-chan, is something wrong?" Lala asked the girl who held up her glasses and found them to be cracked.
"It seems that my glasses are broken. I didn't bring my spare pair either as well." She said a little saddened at this since her vision was terrible without her glasses.
"Aya-chan, how well can you see without them?" Naruto asked seeing her expression.
"She can't see very well Naruto-kun." Saki knew one of her closet friends didn't particularly like the fact she was practically blind without them. Aya was self-conscious when she wasn't wearing them, especially when they had first met and became good friends.
"I see… come on then." Naruto crouched over for Aya.
"Wa-wait you can't be serious Uzumaki-kun I mean…"
"Aya-chan I… I might not be the best if there is such a thing as a ghost in this building which I doubt so much." Lala giggled a little seeing Naruto's expression as he made such a face at the idea of the ghost. "But I'm not gonna leave my friend struggling about. So come on otherwise I'll have to princess carry you out of here." The entire group blushed at the idea of being carried that way, slightly wishing that they had that chance now.
Although Naruto knew that she would be fine as she got to cuddle up with him at home.
"O-O-Okay, please take care of me." Aya wrapped her arm around Naruto's neck and was lifted up as Naruto placed his hands on her calves. She was surprised at his gentle yet firm hold.
"Just be very careful with your hands Naruto-kun." Yui had her arms crossed and with a small pout on her face as she saw Aya's position and wishing she w..NO she didn't want to be held like a girlfriend because that would mean she had a crush on Naruto which she definitely did not, no way no how. Especially since he had feline features was a reason why she did not have a crush on the blonde.
But Aya better not get to comfy in Naruto's arms, she won't have her doing anything shameless to her cru-FRIEND, just close friend.
"Upsie daisy." Naruto said making sure there was no chance of Aya falling from his back before glancing at Saki who gave a smile and nod in thanks.
None of them could see the pairs of eyes watching them from beyond the grave, one being a rather youthful pair but the other much older and much more wiser as well. Only time would tell what these two figures who had never spoken to each other or anyone else would do for the people walking through the old building.
XChapter EndX
Another chapter done people, trying to add a bit more humour back into the story and I know that Naruto does have his fear of ghosts even after the timeskip so why not have t so he still has it after all this time. Also the Deviluken siblings have started their study of Naruto who I've added detail for his rinnegan powers for the sake of later on.
The next few chapters will slowly move things along with Naruto attachment to each female friend and also how their crushes started and have developed. It's tough since the manga focused more on rit ending in pervy situations or failing to ask out Haruna. For me I want to ad a bit more so that's why I added the extended universe of type moon as I enjoy writing on my Kaleido-Naruto and obviously Zel. They make appear again later on as might some of the cast of Fate stay or if I feel up for more hilarity the Carnival Phantasm.
I hope everyone still enjoys my stories even though a lot of the time there are a few mistakes to be seen. I am trying to either update or rewrite a couple of my older stories while at the same time working on my current stories and hoping the manga doesn't keep annoying me like it did today.
DAMN YOU KISHIMOTO!
Anyway I hope you all are patient for the next update of my story but before I go I need to tell you all about my new forum where people can ask questions about any of my stories or make suggestions.
