Review Response:

Draegoon: Don't want to say much about it, as it is a huge spoiler. Well, Naruto groped Xenovia's butt and boobs, and she enjoyed it, so her line of thinking is 'I have to marry him' so of course she would get the idea to fuck Naruto. I want to hear the Game Theory joke. Oh… my… god… That is food for thought. 'Can Kuma with his Paw-Paw powers move the world?' I spent an entire night with my One Piece friends and we concluded, that if Kuma's Ursus Shock was given enough time to get extraordinarily huge, approximately the size of the moon or earth and then condensed, could Kuma move the earth. Now here is some food for thought for you: If Kakashi and Obito worked together, could the warp the entire world into that sub space of Obito's, the one where they fought during the war?

Chrolloz: Hm, good idea. Who wants a Flashback from Kushina's past? It would have to be Kuroka's memories, as she is THE ONLY one who knew her in the group of people Naruto knows.

Jupiter50: Thank you man.

Uday Sra: Thank you.

TheRazgrizDragon: Thank you, the picture is cute, isn't it? Oh, yeah, Kunou was purposely left out, these are the ones Naruto is going to be romantically involved with in the story. Kunou is to young, even I have limits when it comes to that. Oh, yeah, the story will be more interesting with Xenovia, especially certain aspects.

Spacecore94: Oh, god you have no idea.

Calderoneric758: Why not make it both sad and beautiful?

BigBoySpartan: Thank you, man.

AxeMan18: One of my favorite reviews. I agree, I never liked any scene with Xenovia and Issei. *Shudder* I can't watch them either. And since Xenovia is my favorite girl, I absolutely enjoyed (Read as Nosebleed) writing Naruto groping Xenovia's boobs and butt. This scene was actually inspired by Magi.

Haseothesage: Thank you, she says thank you as well.

R-king: Thank you man.

Tera12: Thank you.

Doomqwer: yeah, well, being Kurama's daughter is partially the reason why she is hated, especially for what they did. And yes, this fucks Naruto up a bit more.

Youngdrgn: You're welcome.

T-B-R: I enjoyed (Nosebleed) writing the groping scene with Xenovia, it shows Naruto's innocence and stupidity along with Xenovia's hidden pervert. Yes, why wouldn't she want his werefox babies, he made her feel so good in a way she never thought possible.

Fellipus: I would say your English is actually pretty good, I would have never noticed. Yeah, Xenovia is my favorite girl, alongside the girls I have in the harems of Werefox and Ghoul. Oh, Naruto won't react politely towards Griselda and probably will attack her. and I accept your hug, my good friend.

Fallout4: Thank you. I just post whenever. Way back in 2014, when I was writing Village Hidden in Fairies, I did it weekly, and it affected my school work, and so I just post whenever I can finish a chapter, so posting will be inconsistent. Sorry.

AcidESP: Cool name, sounds trippy. Thanks, I hope I can keep your interest.

LLOYDROCKS: Thanks, I think the art is adorable, and funny enough, my girlfriend just finished artwork of Naruto's children with this story's harem as babies. I am debating if I should set it up as the cover art or wait.

Harem:

Koneko, Ravel,

OKAY, LETS READ THIS SHIT! I DON'T OWN NARUTO, ONE PIECE, OR HIGHSCHOOL DXD!

'Hey' = Thinking

'Hey' = Memory

Chapter 13: Divulgence of My Secret

Naruto's Apartment…

Irina and Xenovia were sitting on the small couch, Excalibur Destruction propped against the couch arm.

They were shocked when they saw Koneko kick Naruto's bed up in the air and grab the clothes wearing fox.

"Calm down Naruto." Koneko said as he squirmed like a wounded animal. "They… WON'T hurt you…"

She wasn't just talking to Naruto, but the exorcists as well.

Xenovia felt guilt flood her system as she watched her friend be forced to calm down when he had his ear massaged.

However, he wasn't completely relaxed.

"Here." Ravel said as she handed Xenovia and Irina some tea.

"Thank you." Irina said bubbly, kissing her cross. "God Bless you."

All three devils cringed and gripped their heads, Naruto's paws on top of his ears, and screaming a bit.

"I don't like you much…" Naruto growled.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Irina apologized. "Force of habit."

Naruto frowned as he closed his eyes.

Xenovia and Irina both felt out of place as they sipped their tea in silence.

"So, why are you two here?" Ravel asked with Ameyuri and Gilga watching the two exorcists from her shadow.

"Well…" Xenovia muttered.

"We talked to your King, Naruto." Irina said, getting Naruto to open his eyes.

Flashback…

Sairaorg sighed, having been told what happened before he was called to Kuoh.

"Well, I can honestly say you did screw up." Sairaorg said as he cupped his hands. "Naruto was severely damaged mentally when Kushina died. So, you telling him that she was a killer goes against what he knew her as. He can't accept it."

"But she was a killer." Xenovia interrupted. "Kushina and her partner killed many before both of them vanished twenty years ago."

Sairaorg nodded in agreement.

"That may be true, but she was not a killer as she raised her son." Sairaorg informed her. "However, I want to hear your side of the story?"

"What story?"

"How you met Naruto?"

"Well, I met him when we were children." Xenovia started. "I noticed he wasn't a normal child, and Griselda had me look after him. We got very close during the three days we were together. Then, one night, Kushina kidnapped him and I haven't seen him since."

Sairaorg, Sona, and Rias were surprised to learn this.

"I see." Sairaorg said as he sat down. "Xenovia, you introduced yourself as Griselda's apprentice to Rias and Sona."

"Yes, I did." Xenovia said unsure of what Sairaorg was trying to get at.

"Naruto hates Griselda." Sairaorg stated bluntly. "And by extension, Durandal, the sword Griselda has."

"Wait…" Irina said as she looked at Xenovia, whose eyes were widening. "Didn't Griselda give you…"

Xenovia slapped her hand over Irina's mouth.

"You have it, don't you?" Sona asked.

Xenovia averted her eyes and nodded.

"Fuck…" Rias said as she rubbed her temples.

"Naruto will probably have a field day." Sairaorg muttered. "An angry one. Keep that to yourself, we don't know what Naruto will do if he finds out."

"That goes for all of you." Rias said to her remaining Peerage, who was still there, listening, and now nodding dumbly as they knew what Naruto was capable of.

"Understood, Buchou." All but Kiba said.

"If that is all, I'll be off." Sairaorg said with a small amount of fear. 'Kuisha is going to kill me.'

"Now, what is your mission?" Sona asked after Sairaorg left.

End Flashback…

"What did Sairaorg say?" Naruto asked.

The two exorcists were in a memory haze, which they were now snapped out of.

"Oh, he wanted to know our mission." Irina said in a hurry, not wanting to say too much.

Xenovia nodded.

"I see." Naruto said as he held his pelt.

"We told him we are hear hunting for the stolen Excalibur Fragments." Irina continued, lifting up her arm to show her armlet. "I have Excalibur Mimic."

"I have Excalibur Destruction." Xenovia said as she motioned to her massive sword.

The three devils were on edge around these two even more.

"We have to hunt down Kokabiel, a cardinal fallen, and the one behind the Fragment swords being stolen." Irina explained.

"That is stupid." Naruto interrupted. "Sending two mortal girls to face a cardinal fallen? What a joke, or are the higher ups high on their horses."

"Naruto," Koneko said as she flicked his nose, making him grab it. "That's not nice."

Naruto grumbled, his ears flat as he lay on the couch, cuddling his pelt.

"And after we explained everything, your friend, the Knight, stormed off." Irina said in a slight worry. "I hope he is going to be okay."

'Kiba…' Naruto and Koneko thought together.

"Also, we don't have a place to stay…" Xenovia tried to say.

"No." Koneko and Ravel said in unison.

"But…" Irina spoke.

"No, there is a small and cheap motel down…"

"We don't have any money." Xenovia revealed with an embarrassed look.

"Why not?" Ravel asked as she crossed her arms under her breasts. "It seems illogical for the Church to send its workers on jobs like this without money."

"Actually, they did." Xenovia countered, glancing at Irina, who looked bashful as she blushed. "But this one went and bought a fake painting, spending all the money we were given."

"The nice man did say it was an original." Irina said bashfully, trying to defend herself.

Ravel dead panned.

'Really?' Koneko thought with a questioning look.

'She is that stupid to buy this, then I think they are doomed.' Naruto thought.

Even Ameyuri and Gilga were glancing at Irina like she was stupid.

"Is it that one?" Ravel asked as she pointed to the painting next to Irina, who nodded.

Said painting was set on fire by Ravel.

"AAAAAAAAAGH!" Irina shouted as she tried to put the fire out, but the painting was sadly turned to ash. "What was that for?"

"A hard lesson." Ravel said with an upset glare. "So, Koneko, Naruto, what should we do?"

Naruto, Koneko, and Ravel were gathered together, wearing black cloaks and the lights were out, except the candles the three held in their hands. Well, Naruto was in fox form, so he was much smaller, couldn't hold a candle, and his muzzle stuck out of the hood.

'What… happened?' Xenovia thought as she and Irina watched this play out, the three whispering to each other. 'They look like cultists.'

The cloaks and candles vanished, the lights turning back on as Naruto walked in front of the two exorcists.

"We will let you stay." Naruto said seriously. "Under two conditions."

Irina and Xenovia swallowed the lumps in their throats.

"First, don't pray out loud or bless us." Naruto said, holding up one finger, now raising a second. "Second…"

Naruto held up his pelt.

"Apologize to me and mom for saying such lies about her." Naruto demanded.

Xenovia and Irina blinked.

'That's all?' Irina thought as she looked at the boy, holding out the pelt.

Xenovia was wracked with emotions and thought.

'If I say I was lying, then I would be lying right now.' Xenovia thought as she looked into Naruto's eyes.

They showed hope, want, and behind those, she saw desperation.

Her face softened into a gentle hurt expression.

Xenovia gripped her hand.

'Lord, please forgive me.' She thought.

"Naruto, I'm sorry I lied to you." Xenovia said convincingly. "I said it because I wanted to get a rise out of you."

Naruto immediately smiled and hugged Xenovia.

"I forgive you." He said as he snuggled into her.

Xenovia smiled, her heart being torn apart.

"And I promise I'll try to keep the praying to a minimum." Irina said, hoping she would.

"Same here." Xenovia said as Naruto released her and walked up to Ravel and Koneko with a dopey smile, in cloud nine.

"Okay, since you agreed to our terms, you may stay here." Koneko said with not so hidden disdain. "You got any clothes to wear besides those body suits?"

Xenovia and Irina deadpanned.

"Oh, don't worry." Naruto said as he spun around. "My clothes can expand to fit anyone. So, you can borrow some of my clothes."

To prove his point, Naruto entered hybrid form.

"Thank you, Naruto." Xenovia said as she watched Naruto, who reverted back to normal, pull out two shirts and two pairs of sweat pants.

"You are welcome." Naruto said as he handed them over. "Alright, I'll get dinner started."

Naruto entered the kitchen, pulling out his phone and hitting Youtube and hitting his favorite playlist.

Queen.

It was Kushina's favorite band and she would sing their songs to Naruto.

(Insert 'Love of My Life' by Queen)

Xenovia and Irina changed into the borrowed clothing, which indeed expanded and fit them snuggly, but not to tight.

Ravel and Koneko, however, were not happy as they watched the two exorcists put their body suits away in bags.

'That girl…' Koneko thought as she entered the kitchen to help Naruto. 'She is hiding something. I can tell by the flow of her magic…'

Koneko slapped her cheeks.

'No, no, no, bad Koneko. No senjutsu.' Koneko thought as she slapped her cheeks several more times.

"You okay?" Naruto asked worriedly?

"Yeah, I'm fine. Never been better." Koneko said as she started helping him.

Meanwhile, Ravel was brushing Gilga.

"Oh, who is the cutest wittle thing?" Irina said as she brushed Ameyuri. "You are. You are."

Ameyuri's tail wagged back and forth from the attention she was getting.

Ravel looked at Xenovia, who was looking at the few pictures Naruto had on his bedside table.

It wasn't barging and entering, as his room was a part of the living room.

'So, this is the peerage he belongs too.' Xenovia thought as she looked at the picture Sairaorg and Kuisha gave Naruto for his birthday. 'He seems so happy.'

"So, you are Xenovia?"

Xenovia turned around and saw the woman from the photo.

"Hey, Kuisha." Ravel greeted, standing up after finishing her brushing of Gilga.

"Greetings Ravel." Kuisha said politely, not taking her eyes off of Xenovia.

Naruto's ears twitched and he walked out of the kitchen and smiled a huge smile and lunged at Kuisha.

"KUISHA!" Naruto shouted as he hugged her tightly.

"Naruto." Kuisha said as she ruffled Naruto's hair, caressing his ears. "I missed you."

"I missed you too." Naruto said as he snuggled into Kuisha's warmth. "You staying for dinner?"

"Yes, I will." Kuisha said with a smile.

Naruto hugged her once more and returned to the kitchen.

"Listen here, you…" Kuisha said as she walked up and got into Xenovia's face. "You hurt my son…"

Kuisha grabbed Xenovia by her shirt, careful to not tough her crucifix.

"I will rain down pain and suffering on you, the likes of which you couldn't dream of." Kuisha said as her face was a centimeter from Xenovia's face. "Do. You. UNDERSTAND?"

Xenovia nodded, unable to talk.

'She is crazy…' Xenovia thought as Kuisha let her go.

"Good, happy we could come to an understanding." Kuisha said as she walked up to Ravel, and Irina. "Nice to meet you."

"Nice… to meet you too." Irina said nervously as she shook Kuisha's hand.

'Kuisha is intense as usual.' Ravel thought as Ameyuri and Gilga returned to her shadow.

Kuisha sat down, listening to the music Naruto was playing, the song ending and 'Killer Queen' started up.

'That I am a Killer Queen.' Kuisha thought with a stifled giggled.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Irina asked Naruto and Koneko, not feeling comfortable doing nothing to help.

"Please do." Naruto said as he pulled out a pan and spatula while Koneko finished preparing the ingredients. "Can you cook the Salisbury steak patties?"

While Irina started to help cook dinner, Kuisha was looking around and saw Naruto's art book, the one he got from Sona.

"Naruto, can I look at your art book?" Kuisha asked, loudly, getting Ravel and Xenovia's attention.

"Sure." Naruto called out from the kitchen.

Kuisha grabbed the book, with Ravel and Xenovia looking over her shoulder, opened it.

There were several pictures of Sona, Ravel, Koneko and Nero.

All of them were decently drawn, showing that Naruto had room for improvement.

Nero, the real one, fluttered in and landed on the table, were her other bowl was kept.

"There you are, Nero." Ravel said as she saw the tiny swallowtail land.

Nero made a noise and looked over, seeing Irina in the kitchen and Xenovia with Ravel and Kuisha.

She deadpanned and flew up to her nest, settling in, closing her eyes.

Killer Queen ended and Save Me started in its place.

'As usual, she is lazy.' Ravel thought as she returned her gaze to the sketches, awing at one of her, Ameyuri, and Gilga.

There were individual pictures of his Peerage family.

Kuisha smiled warmly as she saw the one of her and Naruto.

'He is my son, in all but blood.' Kuisha thought as she continued to browse the sketchbook.

The song's finished, going through Another one Bites the Dust, Sheer Heart Attack, and It's Late.

"Alright, dinner is ready." Naruto called out as Irina and Koneko exited, as Bohemian Rhapsody started playing.

Irina, Xenovia, Ravel, Kuisha sat down at the table, which was big enough for two people. Koneko, on the other hand, brought the smaller coffee table near them.

"Eat it while its hot." Naruto said as he brought out a platter of delicious looking Salisbury steak along with seasoning, mashed potatoes, and peas.

"Looks delicious." Ravel said as she prepared herself to eat.

"Yeah, it does." Xenovia stated.

"Thank you, Naruto, Koneko, Irina." Kuisha thanked.

Ameyuri and Gilga removed themselves from Ravel's shadow after Naruto put the platter in the middle of the table. He had moved over and filled their food bowls.

They thanked Naruto by rubbing into him before digging into their own food.

Naruto, Kuisha, Xenovia, Ravel, and Irina took their first serving, and Naruto sat down at the coffee table, sitting on the floor with a cushion.

"Hey, Koneko…" Naruto said as he watched Koneko get her food. "What does it mean to spoon?"

Kuisha, Irina, Xenovia, and Ravel spat out their food and coughed as Koneko blushed.

"Where did you hear about that?" Kuisha asked/demanded.

"I found one of Master Jiraiya's books in Rias's clubroom, and it mentioned spooning." Naruto explained, referring to Jiraiya's Make-Out Series.

Koneko, who finished getting her food, walked over to sit at the coffee table as well, but instead of sitting across from Naruto, sat in his lap.

"K-Koneko?" Naruto asked as he felt her but rub against his crotch.

"Is there a problem?" Koneko asked cutely, turning on the kitty eyes.

"No…"

"Well, you asked what spooning is, and I'm showing you." Koneko said.

"Oh, so this is spooning?"

Koneko blushed as she nodded, eating her dinner as she sat in his lap, much to Ravel's chagrin.

'That little…' Ravel thought as she looked at Koneko and Naruto.

Xenovia nervously ate as Irina happily chowed down, both having prayed silently.

'I feel so out of place.' Xenovia thought as she chewed the steak.

The feeling was mutual with Irina, but they kept quiet.

After dinner, Ravel, Xenovia, and Kuisha did the dishes.

"Alright, I'll be off." Kuisha said as she prepared to go home. "I'll see you later, Naruto."

"I'll see you later, Kuisha." Naruto said as he hugged Kuisha, kissing her cheek. "Love you."

"Love you too, Naruto." Kuisha said motherly before she vanished.

"Alright, so, sleeping arrangements…" Irina said nervously as she glanced at Naruto's bed.

"Oh, you guys can…" Naruto said before his mouth was covered by Koneko's hand.

"You two can share Naruto's bed." Koneko said possessively. "He will sleep with me in our room."

Xenovia and Irina raised an eyebrow.

"You okay with that?" Naruto asked as he pulled Koneko's hand off his face.

"Yes, I'm sure." Koneko said as she glanced at the exorcists. "Now, its time for a shower and then we go to bed."

"Alright." Naruto said as he removed his shirt and started to remove his pants, leaving his pelt untouched, but was dragged to the bathroom, which had also been enchanted to be a more luxurious bathroom.

'That boy,' Koneko thought with a blush. 'He is stupid at points, but he is also very cute…'

The blush on her face increased as she heard the shower start.

'Maybe…' Koneko thought, before shaking her head of such thoughts. 'No, not now.'

Koneko moved out and away from the bathroom, not seeing Ravel slip by and enter the bathroom.

'Okay… what do I do now?' Ravel thought nervously, her face as red as a barn. 'I did this so I could get one step ahead of Koneko… but…'

"Who's there?" Naruto asked, his vision blocked by the shower curtain.

Ravel didn't answer as she stripped herself naked and undid her pigtails, letting her hair fall down her back.

She moved over and entered the warm water shower, careful to not slip.

"RAvhmph…" Naruto started to say before his mouth was covered by the young Phenex female, making the shushing movement with her finger pressed against her lips.

Naruto nodded, to which Ravel removed her hand from his mouth.

"I want to help you bathe." Ravel said as she looked at his face, wanting to look down but not wanting to embarrass herself.

Naruto was red in the face as well as he turned away, eyes closed.

"S…sure." Naruto said as he grabbed his shampoo bottle, which he handed to Ravel.

She lathered his hair with the shampoo and scrubbed his scalp decently.

All the while, Ravel felt excitement and anxiety in her stomach as she touched his back, scrubbing his back while Naruto scrubbed his front and legs.

'This is the first time I have ever done this sort of thing.' Ravel thought as she kept scrubbing his scarred body. 'He is so tough, yet so soft.'

The scrubbed soap was washed off from the water.

"Alright, I'll help you, Ravel." Naruto offered. "If… that is okay…"

"Yes, I would like some help." Ravel replied carefully.

They swapped places, with Naruto behind Ravel, placing the shampoo in her long hair.

Ravel winced here and there, Naruto accidently pulling her hair, but overall, rinsing her hair after a nice lather.

"Okay, I'll scrub your back too." Naruto said as he tried to not look at Ravel's exposed butt.

Ravel nodded, flinching when she felt Naruto's hand on her shoulder, the cloth in his hand, run across her back as she scrubbed her arms.

The excitement in her building, feeling like it was going to explode with every movement of his hand.

She quivered under his hand.

'Naruto…' Ravel thought as she tried to keep her moans from echoing in her throat.

"Okay, I'm done." Naruto said as he moved back.

Ravel looked behind her, her back still facing him, as he stiffly looked at Ravel's face.

"Actually, there is one more place you can scrub, Naruto." Ravel said as steam from her own heat coming from her face.

Naruto had a stiff confused face.

Ravel turned, presenting herself to Naruto.

Naruto's eyes were wide, and with the light being dulled by the steam and the shadow cast by the shower curtain, were turning a light lavender.

He did his best to look at her face, his lip being bitten to keep himself from looking down as he felt blood rush from his head to his dick.

Ravel, meanwhile, also fought the hormonal battle, looking Naruto in the eyes.

It was a battle to see who gave into their perversions first.

It was an uphill battle for Naruto, due to being smaller than Ravel.

He was the first to crack.

Naruto looked straight forward, seeing Ravel's smooth, perky breasts, her nipples poking out in arousal from how embarrassed she was.

Naruto's eyes were fully lavender.

He grabbed and pulled Ravel down enough to press his lips onto hers.

Ravel moaned in surprise and then pleasure as she felt his tongue penetrate her mouth, slapping and slithering against hers.

Ravel closed her eyes, wrapping her arms around Naruto, pulling him into her, the water hitting her back as her breasts smooshed against Naruto's body.

'I love this feeling…' Naruto thought as he pulled back and kissed Ravel's neck, making her moan as he planted a few more.

The curtains were pulled suddenly to the side, revealing Koneko, dawning only a towel as she was ready to bathe.

"Ravel…"

Ravel opened her eyes in surprise and felt a rush of fear shoot through her, pulling Naruto into her body to cover her breasts and privates from Koneko's view.

"Koneko…!"

"It's time to switch." Koneko said as she yanked Naruto out of the shower, snapping him out of his lust haze, his lavender eyes returning to their normal blue.

"I'M SORRY!" Naruto shouted, turning into a fox and running out of the bathroom, making Xenovia and Irina to jump in shock when the door slammed open.

'What happened?' Irina thought as she watched Naruto run into Ravel's and Koneko's room.

Xenovia raised an eyebrow when Ravel walked out in a bathrobe, her hair up in a towel.

"Have you seen Naruto?" She asked the exorcists.

Irina pointed to the room.

"Thank you." Ravel said politely and she entered the room, taking the towel off her head, and drying her hair, seeing Naruto's wet puffy tail poking out from under the bed, his mom's pelt on a chair.

"Naruto, you need to dry off or else you'll get sick." Ravel said, backed up when Ameyuri and Gilga whimpered.

"I can't be near you, Ravel." Naruto said from under the bed. "I ruined our friendship…"

Ravel sighed, a smile on her face as she walked up and pulled Naruto out for the bed and draped a towel over him, fluffing his fur as she dried him off.

"It's fine Naruto." Ravel said sweetly as Naruto reverted to human form. "If I didn't like it, then I would have pushed you away."

Naruto nodded as Ravel pulled out a brush and brushed his tail.

"I… liked it too." Naruto said after a few minutes, sitting there in front of Ravel, naked. "I would like to do something like that again."

Ravel, having finished brushing his tail, moved up and put her head on his shoulder, smooshing her body into his.

"I would be happy to do that again, Naruto." Ravel said as she kissed his cheek, only to get pulled off of Naruto by Koneko, who handed the shower over to Irina.

She too was wet, drying off.

"Not tonight Phenex." Koneko said as she dried herself off, throwing the towel off, making Naruto close his eyes, reverting back to fox form, his paws over his eyelids.

Ravel pouted and she also changed into some absurdly cute, royal pajamas while Koneko wore short shorts and a big shirt.

"Okay, it's time for bed, Naruto." Koneko said as she picked him and his pelt up, heading for her bed.

"Hold it." Ravel said, pointing at her roommate. "He slept in your bed the last time he slept in here, so naturally, it's my turn."

Koneko blew a raspberry at Ravel.

"Bite me." Koneko said, Naruto clueless to why she was acting like this.

Ravel's eye twitched.

"Ameyuri." Ravel said in silent shaking rage.

Koneko watched at Ameyuri appeared and dived into Koneko's shadow.

"Cheater!" Koneko stated angrily as she felt her body be forcibly moved by her possessed shadow.

"All is fair in love and war." Ravel said as she took Naruto from Koneko. "Time for bed, Naruto."

"Alright…(YAWN)" Naruto said as he felt drowsy.

He could hear Irina hop out of the shower, allowing Xenovia to use it.

Ravel got into her bed, her blanket on her and Naruto.

Gilga appeared and snuggled next to Naruto.

Ameyuri released Koneko and jumped into Ravel's bed, cuddling with Ravel.

Koneko, now in control, menacingly looked at Ravel.

'Some day, I'll break that ability.' Koneko thought as she turned off the light before hopping into bed, falling asleep in a few minutes.

Naruto woke up later that night.

'Bathroom…' he thought hazily as he grabbed his pelt and carefully maneuvered off the bed without waking Ravel or the puppies.

He exited the room, taking a left to the bathroom, becoming human to use said room.

After washing his hands, Naruto exited and took a left and got into bed.

Meanwhile…

Azazel yawned as he walked through Kuoh, late at night.

"You don't need to follow me, ya'know." He called out, turning to face his pursuers. "Well, been a while, Kuma."

A massive man, towering over the Governor-General of the Fallen, looked down. His cloak had a paw design on it with his hood down, to reveal a tan faced man, with a cap with bear ears on it. Within his leather gloved hands, was a bible.

Besides him was Griselda.

"It indeed it has, Azazel." Kuma said coldly.

"Azazel." Griselda said, not to happy to see him.

"Michael ask you two to look after little old me?" Azazel asked with a laugh. "He still cares, that is actually touching."

"We are here to make sure you stay in line, and away from Kokabiel." Kuma said calmly, like a boss.

"Why wait, let's deal with him now as he picked a fight." Griselda said hot-temperedly, activating a seal on her hand to summon her sword, but Kuma stopped her.

Azazel laughed, howling like a lunatic.

"You know, if you didn't have the scar, you would be a real beauty, like your apprentice, the girl with blue hair." Azazel said in a matter of fact tone.

Griselda snapped.

She touched the seal and a handle extended out of it, grasping it with the intent of killing Azazel, but stopped when Kuma appeared before her with his hand extended at her, his palm open.

On said palm was a paw pad.

"Calm yourself, Griselda." He stated.

The handle retracted and vanished.

"Yes, sir." Griselda told her partner, glaring as Azazel smirked.

"What is your business here in Kuoh, Azazel?" Kuma asked as he put his glove on. "More sacred gear research? Or more… nefarious plans, like with me, Kakashi, and Obito."

A hint of resentment.

"I will forever apologize for what they did, won't I?" Azazel asked, dodging the question.

"Your follower kidnapped us, experimented on Obito and Kakashi's eyes, and then they tried to do it to me, but my saviors helped them escape while I was left behind for Lord Michael and Lady Gabriel to find." Kuma stated. "No, I won't forgive you. Now answer my question."

Azazel sighed as he scratched his head.

"I'm interested in the current Red Dragon Emperor, and looking out for Kushina's boy." Azazel answered, leaning against a bench. "Especially with Kokabiel having stolen that poison from me, made for my research. I have the cure, so if that bastard uses it, I'll be there to fix my mistake."

Azazel looked directly at Griselda.

"I won't let her son die the same way." Azazel bluntly said. "Besides, I won't leave even after the fight, if there is one, because the Satan's gave me permission to conduct my silent research in peace as long as I don't harm any of the people, Devils or Humans. Then I need to ask the boy forgiveness for allowing his mom and that nekoshou woman to be killed."

"The daughter of Kurama was a criminal." Griselda said, trying to counter back. "Her son will be no different from her or his grandfather."

Azazel glared at Griselda, his power oozing out of him as he drew a small, golden spear from his suit jacket.

Kuma clenched his bible as Griselda fought this pressure off.

"I may not have known Kushina personally, but she is not the same as Kurama." Azazel stated coldly. "She fled the moment after they failed to kill all the faction heads. I don't harbor hard feelings toward her, she saved Kakashi and Obito, so I can tell she is a good person."

Griselda was about to speak up in retaliation, but Kuma stepped forward again, making Azazel recall his power and put his spear away.

"Then we will continue watching you from a distance." Kuma stated. "Proceed as if we aren't here, Azazel."

Azazel nodded and started walking away, stopping.

"I have done many horrible things in my life." He said to no one on particular. "Past or present, and maybe in the future, I'll screw up, but at least I can confront them, unlike someone who couldn't, or chose not to, understand a loving mom trying to support her son. I hate people who try to justify these reasons or ignore them."

He walked off, not caring about anything except his next drink.

Griselda growled.

"Calm down, partner." Kuma said as he touched her shoulder.

"I understand…" Griselda said quietly, Kuma's ears picking it up. "But I can't forgive myself. I am part of the reason that boy is damaged."

"Admitting is part of the road to recovery." Kuma said as he looked at Griselda's scarred face. "You have grown, Griselda. You are not the same as you were when we met seventeen years ago."

Griselda, who is thirty-one, remembered.

She was all about the books, and took every assignment seriously.

She killed her target without question, raising in rank and soon became the strongest Female Exorcist of the Church, only out shined by her partner, Kuma.

"What about you, Kuma?" Griselda asked as she looked up at him. "You still resent what they did to your parents, yet you feel no true anger towards Azazel."

Kuma was silent for a second.

"My father and mother, a great human alchemist man, and a powerful bear yokai woman." Kuma said slowly, as he looked up to the moon. "I loved them dearly, and I still do. But with what happened before my birth, father always apologized, but I loved him enough to forgive him every time."

Kuma looked down the street, where Azazel had walked down.

"If I hated all my opponents, then I would be no different that those who killed my parents, and the criminals we fight." Kuma said sadly, a stray tear falling down his face.

"I'm sorry." Griselda said as she touched his massive, gloved hand. "I didn't mean to bring up sad memories."

"They aren't sad." Kuma said as he started walking, Griselda walking beside him. "My memories are happy ones, just the loss pains me enough to make me cry that I can't see them anymore."

Griselda didn't, couldn't, understand.

She was raised in the Vatican church since she was a baby, abandoned by her parents on the church's steps.

"Let's go, partner." Kuma said as he touched Griselda's shoulder, teleporting a great distance.

Morning…

'I feel heavy…' Xenovia thought as she started to wake up. 'Like something is on me…'

Xenovia opened her eyes and saw fox form Naruto snoozing on her, his tail swaying nonchalantly in his sleep.

In between them was his pelt.

Irina, meanwhile, slept next to Xenovia, not even noticing anything.

'How long has it been?' Xenovia thought after her initial surprise. 'We haven't slept in the same bed since we were kids.'

Naruto snuggled into his pelt and Xenovia's breasts.

Xenovia smiled and wrapped her arms gently around Naruto, running her hands down his body, through his fur.

Naruto made purring noises.

Xenovia shifted, placing Naruto in between her and Irina.

'I love you, Naruto.' Xenovia thought as she kissed his head. 'I'm so sorry I have to lie to you. I hope you will forgive me, some day.'

Xenovia dozed off, her arm around Naruto's back.

"WHERE'S NARUTO!"

Sadly, that doze didn't last long as the door leading to Koneko and Ravel's room was kicked down and the two girls walked out, seeing Xenovia and Irina shoot up.

"What, what, what?" Irina asked as she looked around, her long light brown hair going everywhere.

"What's going on?" Naruto asked as he stretched like a vulpine, turning around as he noticed he was with Xenovia and Irina.

"There you are." Ravel said as she walked up and scooped Naruto and his pelt away from Irina and Xenovia. "You must have sleep walked."

"I don't know, but I was warm." Naruto said cutely as he leaned into Ravel's shoulder, almost falling asleep again.

"Hey, HEY!" Koneko shouted, getting Naruto to wake. "We have school today, so we need some breakfast."

Naruto nodded and yawned.

He reverted to human form, naked of course and entered the kitchen.

"Naruto, your clothes." Koneko said as she pulled out his new uniform and jacket, his bag being given to Xenovia and Irina the night before to return to him.

"Thank you." Naruto said as he grabbed it.

Koneko grabbed his shoulder and pulled him into a kiss.

"KONEKO!" Ravel shouted, pulling the Nekoshou off of Naruto.

Irina and Xenovia looked away, blushing, although Xenovia looked back and saw Ravel swapping spit with Naruto.

"Okay, STOP!" Naruto shouted, making all four girls jump. "Anymore screaming and no breakfast."

"We'll be good." Koneko and Ravel said in unison.

Naruto sighed and entered the kitchen as he pulled his clothes on, stumbling around like a drunk in the dark as he summoned a clone to start making breakfast.

"Is this a normal thing?" Xenovia asked Koneko.

"No, he is usually pretty fast when getting dressed." Koneko replied as she finished dressing herself.

Ravel, in her uniform (Though with a sweater vest instead of the cape like Asia), fed her grim their breakfast and grabbed a can of dog food for lunch.

"Alright, here you go." Naruto said as he served breakfast for them. "Here you go Xenovia."

"Thank you, Naruto." Xenovia said as she reached for the plate, but her wrist was grabbed.

"Naruto…" Xenovia asked but was cut off when the plate he was handing her hit the floor, shattering.

Naruto ignored everything as he looked at Xenovia's hand.

He pulled it, and Xenovia, closer to him and he sniffed her hand.

Naruto's eyes showed familiarity, confusion, and then… recognition.

"Naruto, what are you doing?" Ravel asked as she saw Naruto's eyes become red.

"Xenovia…" Naruto said slowly as he angrily looked into Xenovia's eyes. "Why do you have the scent of Durandal on your hand?"

Chapter 13, DONE!

Well, shit is now hitting the fan, and the shit was a bag full of yeasty diarrhea mixed with snot, blood, and jizz.

Gross image? Yes, yes, it is.

Anyway, what did you guys think? The majority of the chapter in Naruto's apartment, not to exciting, but hopefully, I made you laugh.

Then the scene with Azazel, Kuma and Griselda? Her new sword and her partner… ITS TYRANT KUMA, AND HE WORKS FOR THE CHURCH!

Also, what of his connection to Kakashi and Obito?

Please, leave a review to let me know what you thought, even if you hated it.
