"Naruto! Oi Naruto wake up man" A voice called out.
The young man in question opened his eyes to see the roof of a car, blinking the sleep out of his eyes. Naruto sat up and looked to see two people sitting in the front seats of the car.
The first in the passenger's seat was a large overweight man with orange hair, brown eyes and pale skin, he was wearing a black hoodie, beige cargo pants and black boots.
The one in the driver's seat was a skinny tall man with black hair tied in a short top knot, slightly dark skin and black eyes, he was wearing a white tank top, black skinny jeans and white converse.
"Kidomaru, Jirobo" Naruto answered as he looked out the car's window.
It was dark, darker than it should have been on a summer's night, the only source of light was the distant illumination of the Kuoh town, the tall buildings reaching towards the heavens.
"You finally back to the land of the living bro?" Jirobo questioned.
"Yeah just took a quick nap," Naruto said.
"Well sorry to interrupt your beauty sleep Hime-Sama but we're here" Kidomaru said half jokingly.
Looking over to Kidomaru's side Naruto could see they were down on a pier filled with different warehouses and boats at the dock.
"So what's the plan then Maru-Kun?" Naruto shot back.
"Simple my idiot friend, All we need to do is take that briefcase next to you to the meeting that is happening inside that warehouse, there we will exchange the stuff for the money and then it's a done deal. We go back to the boss with the money and enjoy our cut, Easy as pie".
"You know for being as smart as you are, Your pretty fucking stupid" Naruto snarked.
"Eh what do you mean?" Kidomaru questioned.
"He means that it is not as cut and dry as you make it, Kidomaru" Jirobo cut in.
"The big guy is right smart ass, Lets not forget that the people we are here to meet are from that crew remember, They will be packing some serious heat" Naruto seriously.
"They're not the only ones packing" Jirobo said as he pulled out a pump action shotgun while Kidomaru pulled out a submachine gun and 9mm handgun.
"Here this one is for you" Kidomaru handed Naruto the 9mm.
"Whoa whoa hang on a minute! Guys this is supposed to be a peaceful trade off, Not a guns blazing moment" Naruto stated.
"We know Naruto, this is just insurance" Jirobo said.
"No it isn't! This is us doing the opposite of peaceful!"
"Look kid, Jirobo and I have been doing these types of jobs for the big man for years, Do you honestly expect the people in there not to have guns? I know this is the first big job you're going to do but stick with us and you'll learn very quickly how things will play out." Kidomaru said Naruto.
"But I've never even used a gun before... and you're only a year older than me!?" Naruto deadpanned at him.
"Still older and hopefully you won't have too either, Come on it's time".
The three left the car and walked toward the factory, while walking Naruto caught sight of his own reflection in a nearby window.
He had golden spiky blond hair with two bangs framing his face, bright sapphire blue eyes, three jagged scars on each cheek and pale skin.
Naruto wore a long open black coat that ended at his knees, an open white collared shirt that revealed a burnt orange T-shirt underneath, Black pants that were a little baggy on him, a pair of black combat boots.
And to finish off his look was an orange headband with a black swirl on it.
"Hey! If you've finished checking yourself out can we go? I've got a lady friend waiting for me after this" Kidomaru yelled to Naruto.
"Can you even consider Karin a lady?" Naruto muttered.

"So we're going to do this or what?" Came grough voice.
Currently Naruto and Jirobo were standing behind a seated Kidomaru who looked completely relaxed, Around them were various thugs all carrying guns.
The warehouse was clearly abandoned going by its current state, But going by the shiny metal table where the meeting was taking place, It was more than likely that this was a new location for mutual dealings.
On the said table there was the case that they had brought on their side and on the other side was a duffle bag.
"Of course we are Rin-san, as you can see we've got your product and you have our bosses money, all that's needed is a handshake and then we can all go back to our business" Kidomaru said with a shrug.
Rin stared at Kidomaru for a moment before nodding and slid the bag across the table "Then take the money and go".
"A pleasure as always Rin-San" Kidomaru said as he grabbed the bag and stood up.
Holding out his hand for the criminal the two shuck hands before separating.
Kidomaru threw the bag to Naruto who caught it "Lets go boys". And the three began walking out.
An unnamed thug approached Rin and whispered to him.
"The men are ready boss".
"Good, make sure the boys get the money and waste those fucks, Don't want him getting word it was us".
Scene change
"See what I tell you kid, everything went according to plan" Kidomaru said as the three were driving.
"Yeah yeah smartass and you're only a year older than me god dammit!" Naruto shouted.
"But seriously though how are you holding up?" Jirobo asked.
"Fine mostly, I was more worried than anything else" Naruto admitted to him.
"Understandable, this was your first time dealing with this kind of shit though, Still can't believe the little twelve year old brat who came barging in to one of boss's hideouts demanding a job is here with us now hahaha" Jirobo joked.
"Yeah well it was either that or die in the streets, I'm happy with this outcome though, I've got money, food and the two of the best assholes out there, I'm set" Naruto laughed folding his arms over the back of his head.
"Little prick hahaha, But seriously Naruto don't get too comfortable". Joribo said seriously while turning to look at him.
"Eh?" Naruto blinked.
"You're a good kid Naruto, you could go places people like me and Kidomaru could only dream of, you're not meant to be a sleaze asshole like the rest of us, You should take what money you have and get out of this life. Go back to school, get good grades, hell meet a beauty and lock that ass down but leave this life behind". Jirobo almost looked like he was begging Naruto as he spoke.
"What are you talking about Jirobo? You sound like you're reading me your death wish" Naruto said in an unsure jokingly way.
"Naruto you still have a chance to walk away before you get in too deep, the boss is not a man you want taking notice of you, So far you've only done running jobs for us not him, and the only reason your here is because the other guygot hauled away by the cops, I ain't your family kid, none of us are so it's your choice but make sure you think about what I've said" Jirobo said as he turned back to face the road.
Naruto took a second to digest what Jirobo said he was so lost in thought that he didn't notice Kidomaru and Jirobo shared a nod with each other.
"Hey we've got a bit of time before we are expected back, why don't we have a quick stop at that ramen bar you love so mu-" The car was suddenly slammed into from right side from another car head on causing their car to flip and tumble a few times before coming to a stop upside down.

Issei Hyoudou was speechless at the flag event happening in front of him. This pretty girl had walked up to him out of nowhere, called for him by name, and she even asked him...
"I-I'm sorry...wh-what did you say?"
"G-geez, why are you making me say it again?" The beautiful young girl with long black hair whined as she tried to work up her courage again with a burning red face. "I-I've seen Hyoudou-kun walk around this way for awhile now and...and every time I saw you I-I got nervous. My knees got weak and-and my heart started to race. And I've wanted to say this to you for some time now..."
She took a deep breath, "Hyoudou-kun! Will you go out with me?!"
Issei looked at the girl called Yuuma Amano as time froze around him. Just earlier today he had dreamed of getting a girlfriend to grab her wonderful boobs. He had peeked on all the girls in the changing room so he could see their naked bodies. And he was beaten up because he was a vile and hated pervert.
And yet somehow, this beautiful, lovely girl wanted to be his girlfriend. What could he say? What was he thinking?
'FUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK YEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!'
"Yes. Of course I'll go out with you."

"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN YOU'VE GOT A GIRLFRIEND?!" One bald boy and one bespectacled boy screamed out in absolute dread as their stone-faced expression were aimed towards their mutual best friend.
Issei currently had the biggest, most smug shit-eating grin on his face as he could muster. He rubbed his chin and chuckled haughtily, "Ahahaha, come now Motohama-kun, Matsuda-kun, don't be so crass. We are in the presence of a young lady right now, you two must control your language." He did an over the top turn and bowed respectfully to the young bishoujo besides him, "I'm sorry about that, Yuuma-chan, they usually aren't so rude."
His new girlfriend shined a pretty smile at her new boyfriend, "It's okay Hyoudou-kun, I'm just happy that you want your friends to meet me already." She turned to the other two perverts and bowed to them, "It's a pleasure to meet you two. I hope we can get along very well in the future."
Issei bid Yuuma goodbye as she had to get back to her own school. After she was out of sight, Issei turned back to his two friends that were still pale and frozen. He walked between them and made an even bigger smile...
"Life is good boys. Life. Is. Good."
Scene change
Present
Today...was the best day of Issei's entire brief, lady-less life. In just one date with his new girlfriend, he had effectively ended a seventeen year relationship with his right hand. And despite the good times, it would not be one he missed.
Yuuma-chan was, in no uncertain terms, the perfect girl for him. She was as beautiful as a goddess, yet didn't let her looks become a vanity. She was kind and sweet, listening to what he said and letting him listen when she had something to say as well. Her smile was like a ray of bright light that shined down on all his dark tendencies and made him feel safe. Her clothes were simple but suited her sweet exterior she showed on their date, a little scrunchie on her wrist that Issei gave to her as a gift.
She was...perfect.
The two teenagers were now at the fountain in the local park, the final stop for their first date. Yuuma turned on her feet and looked at her new boyfriend with a bright red flush across her face, "Um, Issei-kun..."
The spiky, brown-haired boy perked up when she said his name, "Yes, Yuuma-chan?"
She poked her fingers together and looked away in embarrassment. "Listen...we've finally been on a date and I really enjoyed it...so, I was wondering if you could do a little favor for me?"
Issei did his best to contain his excitement but couldn't help but smile, "What is it? I'll do whatever I have to to help you!"
Yuuma put her hands together, tilted her head and smiled as happily as she could...
"Will you die for me?"
...
...
Issei cleaned his ears out with his pinky, must've gotten too excited and heard her wrong. "Excuse me? I think I heard you wrong-
"I said..." Two massive black crow wings, dark as the night that surrounded them, unfolded from her back. "Will you die for me?" The wings on her back flapped and she was raised off the ground, the smile on her face turning cold and meaningless as her face seemed to change from the soft, every-girl expression to a leaner form.
"Y-Yuuma-chan?" Issei instinctively stepped back from the winged girl as a shining weapon formed in her hand out of nowhere. She smiled and held the weapon over her shoulder...
"Buh-bye."
She threw the Spear of Light as hard as she could as it rocketed towards the unsuspecting boy. He froze in horror as it soared towards his chest and planned to pierce him.
Scene change
20 minutes before
Naruto groaned as his eyes fluttered open,his head spinning, his body screaming in pain, ears ringing unable to hear anything other than a high pitch sound.
Looking around his eyes squinting Naruto instantly knew his equilibrium was wrong, His arms were dangling above him, the feeling of blood rushing to his head.
"Guys?" He coughed out, his voice hoarse barely managing to come out as whisper.
Naruto felt warm and it was getting hotter he forced his arms back to his body to undo the seatbelt, the moment it became unbuckled gravity took hold of him.
Slamming back first into the glass covered roof of the car he choked at the loss of air from the impact. Rolling himself on to his belly Naruto dragged himself out from the wreckage, the glass slicing and shredding his arms and legs as he moved.
Pulling himself into a seated position Naruto continued to drag himself away from the car, the undercarriage of the vehicle had flames starting to burn, licking the air as they grew and spread.
Shaking the dizziness from his head Naruto brought a hand to his head only to flinch in pain, pulling his hand away he could see blood had coated his hand.
The ringing in his ears started to subside only to be assaulted by a loud BANG! From the other side of the car.
Naruto's head snapped to the direction of the sound, forcing his body to move to the cover of the car. Naruto peeked his head over and his eyes bulged.
The same criminal who had been standing behind Rin from the meeting was now standing over a bloody and broken Kidomaru who was laying face down in a pool of his own blood while having a smoking revolver aimed at his head, said thug lowered the gun before looking at the other downed victim.
Jirobo sat against a street light, his face and clothes covered in blood, his right arm folded across his bloodied chest while the left laid motionless by his side, his left leg bent off to a sickly direction with the bone sticking out for the world to see.
The thug approached the down man "Nothing personal Jirobo-San it's just business" he said as he pointed the gun at him.
Jirobo's eyes flicked over to Naruto's hidden form before returning the back to the man "Heh.. business you..say...ha..ha...forgive me...if I..don't believe..you..Sora" Jirobo wheezed out.
Sora stared at Jirobo before kneeling down to his level "I was going to make it quick so that you didn't suffer but unfortunately for you, Kidomaru-san's attitude towards Rin-sans wasn't taken too kindly by him, and going by the look of your wounds you don't have much time left anyways, sayonara Jirobo-san" Sora stood up and walked back to a black car.
Naruto watched him drive away before leaving his spot and rushed his way over to Jirobo.
"H..hey..brat".
Naruto kneeled down beside him, his voice failing to utter a single sound but for Jirobo his silence was deafening.
"Nnnugg...listen to me..Naruto, in my...pocket.. there's a key… for a room...at the Devil's..den…motel, room...number 9...it's mine and...Kidomaru's safe house...for when..we needed to... lay low..nngah god this fucking...hurts...Go there and...take the money from..the...safe...and...get out of..town,...go as far as that...money...will take..you and...caugh! caugh!...and don't..come back" Jirobo pleaded.
Naruto could barely manage a nod as he stared at Jirobo's dying form, his eyes glistening refusing to let his tears fall.
"And...take your gun...back...and keep it for...protection" Naruto reached into Jirobos pocket and retrieved the key and picked up the 9mm that lay on the ground near the car.
Sirens echoed the distance growing louder as they got closer but Naruto took no notice of them.
"Times...cough! up kid, go...through the...park..run and don't..look back" Jirobo's eyes became cloudy, all traces of light gone from them as his breathing slowed.
Naruto sniffed as he wiped his eyes, he needed to move before the police arrived. Looking over to the park he quickly pushed himself to his feet and ran into the bushes.
Pushing his way through the branches and leaves, Naruto emerged to see two figures in the distance, a boy and girl around his age. Planning on sneaking past the two Naruto was about to move when she did something unexpected.
'Are those...wings?!' He thought as she lifted from the ground and her black feathered wings stretched out in full glory. He couldn't hear what she was saying but the boy looked terrified at the sight of her, both males watched as she raised a hand as light emerged from it, the light formed into what looked like a spear like weapon.
Naruto watched as she held the spear in a throwing manner 'She's going to kill him!'.
Naruto didn't know what came over him, he didn't know if it was because of the crash, the death of the two people that looked out for him or even that he almost died himself but there was one thing he did know.
He couldn't stand by and do nothing!.
Not again.
Gripping his gun tightly, he charged.
Scene change
"Buh-bye."
She threw the Spear of Light as hard as she could as it rocketed towards the unsuspecting boy. He froze in horror as it soared towards his chest and planned to pierce him.
Until a figure jumped from the street and tackled Issei to the ground, evading the Spear of Light by a tiny margin. Yuuma raised an eyebrow in displeasure and looked to where her target had been thrown to.
Issei was sprawled out on the ground, dizzy from the sudden whiplash while the taller, battered, bloody blond figure was in a similar position as him.
"Who the hell are you?!" Yuma questioned in outrage.
Issei starred as the wounded blond picked himself up from the ground, stumbling as he did so.
"The real question is what the fuck are you lady?!" Naruto exclaimed as he pointed his gun at her.
"HA! You honestly think that little man made trinket will do anything to the likes of me human?" Yuma laughed.
Gripping the gun tightly Naruto answered "Won't know unless I try bitch!"
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Click...Click...Click…
Yuma smiled smugly "See I told you that little toy wouldn't be able to do anything to me-OW Fuck!" She was cut off when the gun hit her dead in the face.
Issei could only blink repeatedly not even a minute ago his hot girlfriend was going to skewer him with her shining stick next thing he knows he's being saved by some blond foreigner, who looked like he just got out of fighting Goku from dragon ball Z, by throwing his gun at her.
'Wait..a GUN?!'
Before Issei could mutter a single word the bloody blond was in front of him pulling him to his feet. "Run!" He shouted as he dragged Issei with him running at full speed.
They barely managed to get 3 feet away before two lances of light burst through their stomachs, blood gushed as the spears pushed their way through the boy's organs.
Both of them dropped to their knees cradling their blood from the gaping holes, Issie fell first his back splashing in the crimson puddle on impact while Naruto fell to his left side in a fetal position.
Both of them were bleeding out, Issei and Naruto in shock as the agonizing pain faded and their whole bodies went numb and cold. Issei raised his blood soaked hand as it trembled in front of his face, drops of his blood falling all over his face. Past the hand, he could see that Yuuma walked over and stood over the bleeding out boy with a sickeningly sweet smile still on her face.
"Sorry Issei-kun, but I had to do this. Don't blame me, blame the one that gave you such a dangerous skill." She looks back up and pouted at the blond who was heavily panting as his eyes shook in his head, "But you can blame yourself for trying to play the hero part when you had no chance." Naruto just raised a shaky hand at her before coughing up more blood and falling back on the pebbles beneath him
She looked back down to Issei, knelt down by his frightened head and smiled. "It was fun. Thanks for taking me out on that date Issei-kun." She kissed her fingers and tapped his tear covered cheeks as he tried to wheeze out a plea.
She started to float again and waved at her dying Ex-boyfriend, "Bye." She disappeared from sight, leaving the two men to bleed out as the light faded from their eyes.
Issei was silently crying, feeling the contrast of his body going cold as he was bathing in the warmth of his own blood. He didn't want this to happen. He didn't want to die yet. He was still a virgin dammit! There had to be some rule against this kind of shit!
While Naruto could only think about his life choices, was this really how his life was going to end? He couldn't save Jirobo or Kidomaru because of his own fear, now he actually had a chance to save some random kid and he fails! Digging his fingers into the blood soaked pebbles as tears gathered in his eyes he could only pray that his next life didn't hold similar hardships that his current one had.
As the two men started to fade out, a bright red light started to shine from a blood covered paper besides Issei's pants. A massive circle with dozens of symbols inside of it was projected from the soaked piece of parchment and the men were bathed in a warm red glow.
A female figure formed above the red circle and she looked down at the dying men below her. "I guess you were the one who called me. And it looks like I came just in time to clean up the mess."
She looked down at the brown-haired boy as the light finally disappeared from his eyes and his head went slack. She looked up a little towards the blond who's face was covered in his own blood yet still found enough strength left to look into her eyes. They stared for a moment before his eyes went hazy and slowly closed shut.
They were dead. Both of them. Finally gone from this world.
She just closed her eyes and smiled, "Well it looks like I've found two little strays on their way home. Well don't worry boys...I'll see you soon."
Two large, crooked black wings sprouted out of her lower back and her hands started to glow the same kind of red as her hair.
Scene change
When Naruto slowly opened his eyes again, there was a bright white light and a blank space set out before him. His eye blinked slowly trying to clear his vision, sitting up he brought his left hand to his eyes, clearing them as he rubbed the sleep away. Turning to his right Naruto could see some kind of curtain that separated him from different beds that filled the room, the early sun rising to fill the room with natural light.
Looking around the room Naruto could see he was in some kind of infirmary, going by the beds and the medical supplies that filled the cabinets of the room only strengthened his theory, He slowly lowered his hand to where he thought he had been stabbed, feeling his normal chest and his heart beat steadily. He rubbed his face and sigh, "Was all that just a dream?"
He put his hand back on the bed and was greeted with a soft sensation and a warm feeling covering his hand.
"Hmmm~."
Naruto froze at the sound, his head turned left almost robotically to see a woman.
And what a woman she was!
Long crimson hair sprawled around her sleeping form, her milky like skin shining in the light, the soft expression her face held made her look like a gift from heaven, the shallow breaths she took like music to his ears, her gorgeous breasts shaking ever so slightly from her breaths.
Lifting the covers that started at her waist he could see she was as naked as the day she was born.
And so was he!
'Holy shit!'
Naruto's face erupted bright red as steamy blew from his head, he had yet to remove his hand from the soft supple that was her breast. Giving an experimental squeeze he got his reward.
"Ahhhhn~"
Without warning the corners of his vision seemed to darken almost like shadows shifting, pulsating as he stared at the crimson goddess. His ears picked up the sounds of faint whisperings, nothing that Naruto could make sense out of.
….HmMMmM YeSsSs….
"KYA!"
Panic gripped his heart when a dark almost demonic voice spoke above the whisperings, causing him to throw himself away from the beautiful teen. Forgetting that they were sharing a small single bed, Naruto fell straight back onto the cold laminated floor.
Hearing the commotions the red haired girl groaned as she sat up rubbing the sleep from her eyes before her sights landed on Naruto.
A beautiful smile rested on her face "Good morning".
Naruto could only mimic a fish as his mouth opened and closed, nothing left his lips as he gazed at the woman before him, his face burning as he tried so hard to keep his sapphire eyes locked with her own blue-greens.
"How's your tummy?" She asked as her eyes seemed to narrow ever so slightly but kept their playfulness.
His eyes widened. How the hell did this chick know about the dream? Wait a minute, if she knew then that means it was real! But that also means…
'Kidomaru...Jirobo…' that's right they were gone, killed. Not by that rat winged bitch but because of thosepeople...Wait... rat winged bitch?...
His eyes widened further, getting to his feet. Naruto was in front of the girl grabbing her by the top of her biceps "That kid! Is he alright?!".
Her eyes widened slightly before she smiled again "You mean the boy from last night? He's perfectly fine, I healed him and dropped him off at his home before I healed you, I'm sorry for not taking you home but I had no idea where you lived".
Naruto sighed in relief "Good".
His hand released her, his form relaxing as he held eye contact with her. She broke the contact as her eyes drifted down and her own cheeks brightened. Naruto's face exploded in heat as he stared at her with a deadpan expression while covering his junk.
"Wait.. you said healed right? What did you mean by that?" Naruto asked.
"Exactly that, I healed you both" She said innocently.
"But how? We had huge holes in our stomachs! No offence or anything but I find it hard to believe some super gorgeous girl managed to save us with half of our organs hanging out". He said in disbelief.
"Well thank you for that comment umm..." She hinted.
"Naruto...Uzumaki Naruto" He held his hand out to her.
Gripping his hand tightly she returned his shake "Uzumaki Naruto-Kun huh I like it, can I call you Naruto? Great well to answer your Naruto last night you and that boy died at the hands of that fallen angel" she told him.
"What?..." Naruto could only stare at the red head with questioning eyes.
"Not only that but now you both belong to me, since you told me your name it's only fair I tell you who and what I am" She stood from the bed and moved directly in front of him, cupping his chin with her left hand bring him closer to her while placing her right hand on her hip "My name is Rias Gremory and I am a devil" Her eyes glowed a demonic red as two black crooked wings burst out from her lower back, His eyes widening Naruto tried to move back from her but her grip held firm "And as of last night I am your master and you are one of my cute servants" Rias finished while giving a sultry smile.
Again the corners of his vision darkened, the whispers of multiple voices all saying different things that he could barely make out.
...It LiEs….
After that dark voice had spoken his vision returned to normal and the whisperings faded away, Naruto who was trying to come to terms with what was going on, opened his mouth to speak…
Thump*
Only to faint in front of his new master.
How embarrassing…
Rias blinked before giggling.
This one was very cute.
