A/N: The majority of the last part of the chapter does have a rather heated moment between Kyoya and Naruto and could be skipped near to the end.


Now this isn't who I expected to see on my way to school.

Naruto stopped in her tracks and pursed her lips into a thin line at the sight of Xanxus. The leader of the Varia stood right in front of her with lips curved with disgust and crimson eyes filled with no emotion. That was rather odd. From her own observations, she made the presumption that he would be pissed with her for ruining his plans.

Then again, she had pictured Jiraiya being the one to stop in front of her. After all, she had spent the night in Kyoya's house and did not come back to the apartment. He must be jumping to conclusions by now. Although, this time his conclusion about their activity would be right. It probably would start becoming right every time she stayed the night with her partner.

But they were going to be careful…and well they had a potential future where they had a child.

"You haven't left," she finally said, eyebrow raised.

Xanxus inspected her. "Not yet."

Despite the lack of emotion in his eyes, she practically felt the hate that radiated from him. It radiated out of him in waves and she just knew that he hated her. It was nothing really personal. Well it was personal when she thought about it. Iemitsu got Kyoya and Lambo involved. While she trusted those two, it did not mean she shivered with delight at the knowledge they would get hurt.

Of course, it sounded sentimental. Soft and she did not want to give off the impression to this mafioso that she was a girl with a softness comparable to Sawada. I'm different from him. Of course, it was also pointless for her to point this out to him. Pointless because saying it out loud meant that she was the same as that boy.

"If you have a desire to kill me then I should inform you that there's a rather lengthy queue for my head," she said dryly, arms folded against her chest. She darted her eyes to the road, noted the lack of pedestrians and then glanced back at the Varia Leader.

The older male snorted and inspected her. "Killing you would be fun, trash but if the other trash dies then you will be the heir. Between the two of you, I find you the more tolerable option."

Of course, you do. She had no desire for the blood-soaked position and its shackles. No longing for her freedom of choice to be taken away from her but…he must have figured it out by now. After all, if I wanted that boring position then I would have killed Sawada by now. It would have been so easy to make it look like an accident too.

Unfortunately for him, Sawada was more useful in his living state and she would ensure his safety until he had his own child.

"If you don't wish to kill me then do tell me what made you decide to come to the trash that ruined your plan?" she tilted her head and inspected the man. With what she knew, it made no sense for him to come to her. Either he avoided her unless they were forced to interact or he tried to kill her.

Xanxus thinned his lips. "How do you plan to cause the destruction of your home?"

"Ah, Mammon told you about our little deal."

Her skin almost prickled with irritation for what the toddler had done but when she considered the end goal, then it didn't matter. Nothing really mattered except the destruction of Konoha. The best way to destroy a tree is to try and rip its foundation. Would the people still have faith if dirty little secrets were spilled?

Would they have the desire to have shinobi if they knew all of their secrets? Because she knew without a doubt that they had their dirty secrets. Once we sow the seeds then I can watch and see them dance to my tune. It was what they deserved. What they all deserved for what they had done to her.

"Mammon doesn't betray easily even when money is involved," he stated. Naruto kept quiet and kept her expression blank as red eyes glinted with a twisted cruelty that made her whole body shiver. "Yet all you had to do was to offer him the money of his family in exchange for the destruction of your home. Mammon doesn't have the capability of murdering a whole village."

So what could he do that you cannot do yourself? That seemed to be the hidden question and that was something she could answer. She glanced down at the gravel, pushed it back and forth before she curved her lips into a smile. "If you want to know what I want him to do exactly then pay me Ұ 110,000,000."

Only silence greeted her. Xanxus regarded her with blank eyes and lips that neither smile, frown nor scowl, and Naruto tapped her feet against the ground. While there was absolutely no harm to inform him, she still shouldn't give him the information that freely. And since it was her matter, it had to be expensive.

She wasn't a cheap girl after all.

"Scribble down your bank account number and I'll wire you the money," Xanxus grunted, irritated. He pulled out a piece of paper and pen from his pocket. She snatched the items from his hand, took a seat on the floor and began to scribble down the information needed for the money transfer.

She handed him the note and commented. "You seem to have no problem with throwing money away for such useless information."

It was rather curious and odd because if the position had been reverse, then she wouldn't care about this. Instead of being in a road that was near a middle school, she would have gone to some fancy restaurant. But curiosity could be different for different people. Naruto exhaled and eyed the man.

"Mammon observed that whatever they did had to be something devastating," he observed. "Your family isn't known for drowning in a sea of hatred or so Mammon claimed."

She twisted her lips into a cruel smile. "And you want to see what could they have possibly done for a child of such a good family to become so…twisted?"

"Belphegor is more twisted than you." It was not a denial which meant she was indeed correct in her assumption.

Naruto thinned her lips. While she had never witnessed Belphegor in battle, Haku had given her enough information to paint a rather good image of the boy. I cannot argue he is insane because I value my own life over winning over some stupid battle. She would also keep her sanity even if someone drew blood.

She inhaled, exhaled and then looked at the man. A quick glance at her phone told her that not only did he wire the money to her account, but that she also needed to hurry up and go to school. Even though Kyoya and her had a relationship, he would never let her off the hook if she was late.

"I won't tell you the whole story but I'll inform you of what is burning my own justifiable rage," she pocketed her phone into her skirt pocket and waved at him to move. The man didn't move an inch and Naruto clenched her jaw. "Once I gain money, I hand over information however I'm late for school…"

"Your boyfriend is the boss of that school."

She thinned her lips. "Kyoya and I don't prefer to put a label on our relationship…labels have never suited us."

The man grunted, looked almost befuddled by the lack of label in her relationship and Naruto lowered her shoulders. To an outsider, it was strange that they didn't declare verbally that they were dating but it suited them. Vocalizing their relationship to the world would put a shackle on them…and she preferred not to be shackled.

"Your partner would give leeway to his girl, wouldn't he?"

She snorted. "If Kyoya was the type to give preferential treatment then I wouldn't be in this partnership with him. A leeway like being late for school because you question me…won't be enough reason for him not to bite me to death."

Not the fun way, anyway. Naruto kept her expression blank and the man snorted before he pointed to her neck. She didn't need to look down to know he was obviously pointing to the hickeys that Kyoya left behind. The hickeys that the Kyuube refused to heal for some…

"It's annoying trying to hide the evidence of two hormonal teens," the Kyuubi grumbled. "You two are going to be more worse than your parents."

That was definitely not something she wanted to know.

"When will I get the story then?" he demanded.

Naruto glanced at her phone. "Tomorrow would be suitable since I've work and patrol to do today."

It will also let me gather up my thoughts on how to explain my undeniable rage. Of course, she didn't say those words to him and with an exaggerated bow, she walked away from him. If there was a bounce in her steps then it was because of the amount of money in her bank account

She had found someone that would be willing to put up with her insane amount of money for even the most meaningless information.


"You and Hibari did it, didn't you? Because you are definitely glowing."

Naruto looked away from her notebook and stared at the curious eyes of Ino with pursed lips. The Yamanaka Heiress had a knowing look on her face, a look that needed to be destroyed if you asked her. After all, the female and her might have settled…their differences but this was her personal life.

A life that Ino did not deserve to know about.

"My intimate life is none of your business," she said, coldly. The older teen let out an exasperated sigh and turned the chair towards her while their classmates chatted behind them without a care in the world. Although, a few of them shot curious looks to her and Ino.

The platinum blond-haired girl smiled even wider and leaned forward. "That might be true but it was rather entertaining to watch Haku-san lie to Jiraiya about your whereabouts."

I'll have to triple Haku's pay. She rubbed her jaw and looked down at her book. It wasn't difficult for the boy to lie but he must be growing irritated with her desire not to have Jiraiya know about the full extent of her actions. Of course, she had informed Jiraiya that Kyoya and her had went to the third base.

Now if she were to inform him about the homerun, not only would he act like he had the right to know about her relationships but he might even try and spy on her intimate life with Kyoya. I don't want details to go into his novel. Naruto grimaced and looked down at the novel. It was after all one thing for her to get ideas but another thing for her intimate life to be read by the public.

She shook her head and regarded the girl. "We both know nothing will make me spill about what Kyoya and I did last night, so tell me the real reason why are you bothering me?"

"And here I was thinking that we grew close enough for you to spill juicy details," Ino pouted and shook her head. "Well I thought you would like to know that Shikamaru, Choji and I are going to head off next week to start on our mission…and that Tsunade-sama has decided to send Hinata's team here."

Hinata-chan? She kept her expression blank as her stomach began to stir for what could only be the beginning of guilt. Guilt, perhaps, for leaving behind the only bond that she had in the village. People weren't things that she truly cared about or rather people from Konoha but Hinata would always be a different story.

They made flower crowns for each other, once upon a time and where people once saw her as a failure, Hinata had always praised her and loved her like no other.

She cleared her throat, pushed the childish memories back, and stared at the slyly-smiling teen. "That's good but it must be difficult for you to leave Gokudera behind."

Ino blinked and blinked before she spluttered at the accusation. If you wanted me to react then two people can play the game. Unlike her, the Yamanaka heiress had always been so expressive when it came to the people that she liked. Well too expressive when compared to her but not as expressive as Sakura.

No, the pink-haired girl had always wore her heart on the sleeve. Annoyingly so if you asked her. You would think after being friends with Ino, that she would learn to guard her emotions. But it seemed like Sakura never learned because it had been clear as day when the female began to develop a crush on Sasuke Uchiha.

A pointless crush on a boy that held no desire for love and relationships.

"I-I don't know what you are talking about, Uzumaki." Ino barked, jaw clenched and teal eyes which couldn't meet her own eyes. If she didn't know any better then she would say that her former classmate was…embarrassed, but she did know better. Her former classmate wasn't known for hiding her feelings from the person, she liked.

Yet, it seemed like Gokudera was the exception to the rule.

"You have been developing feelings for the resident smoker," she observed and Naruto closed her notebook. The girl blinked, opened her mouth to argue and the blonde allowed the curve of her lips to widen. "You might be kind — although you never bothered to give me that kindness due to those stupid rumors—but you never went out of your way to help Sasuke like you did with Gokudera."

Ino looked away. "I changed and it wasn't like Sasuke-kun would have accepted my help for anything."

"He always had too much pride," she agreed. "But Gokudera-kun has the same amount of pride, so why didn't you just give up on him like Sasuke? Why go out of your way to ask me to lower the price for him? Y'know I don't have a bleeding heart."

"But you decreased it which means you do have a heart."

The accusation lingered in the air and Naruto thinned her lips. Of course, she would jump to that conclusion. It was a logical conclusion because she agreed to decrease the price for the male. Although, she would say she only decreased it because she didn't want Sawada to come and cry about his friend starving to death because of her.

She hated his whining after all.

"If he were to die from starvation then Sawada would forever pester me about my cold actions," she finally argued. Ino snorted but did not dare to contradict her words, and Naruto fixed her eyes on the girl. "However, I'm not blind about the way you keep searching for him with your eyes."

Ino thinned her lips. "You know I like good-looking boys and Gokudera is probably the hottest boy in this school."

If you were the same shallow girl then I would believe you, but you tried to get to know him. She lifted up the notebook and tossed it up in the air. There was no need to comment about it, not when it seemed like the girl was going to deny about her feelings towards the male. Besides, it wasn't going to be fun to get a confession about her.

However, she would make a single observation for just the sake of the conversation.

"Gokudera is nothing like Sasuke," she observed, putting down the book.

For the longest time, Ino made no comment and just when she thought it was the end of the conversation, the Yamanaka heiress finally admitted. "He almost reminds me of Sakura, except he is more loyal."

And there's the bitterness. Naruto leaned against the chair and inspected the girl. They could end the conversation here, eat their breakfast in peace or the conversation could continue and she could learn just a little bit more about the girl. The first would keep her mind in peace however she was rather bored.

This was also information that could potentially be used in the future because she could always find a way to use it.

"Did the two of you ever recover your friendship?"

"Like before? It will never be the same," Ino said, irritated and almost frustrated. The Yamanaka heiress looked down at her bento and scowled. "Sakura broke our friendship because I kept looking down on her. That was fine and if she wanted me to look at her as a equal then that was fine but she shouldn't have used Sasuke-kun as an excuse. It made everyone think that we were shallow! I—"

"Continue on and I'll charge you for the consultation fee because I'm not a couple therapist," she said, dry as sand. "If you want a therapist then either you and Sakura go see one or talk to Yamamoto."

Ino threw her a frosty look and demanded. "Then why did you even ask me?"

"Because I was bored."

The older girl stumbled and then shook her head. Naruto offered her a shrug and gazed out at the window. There was a couple of birds that sat on the tree branch and Reborn seemed to be in the middle of them, dressed in one of his usual outfits. I guess he wants to do some recon. Well, he wasn't going to get anything from her.

Ino exhaled and looked down at her hands. "You know I really have to wonder how my relationship with Sakura ended up like…this and your friendship with Hinata is still so strong! You were to Hinata, what I was to Sakura but she never tried to break her friendship with you."

I guess she is going to talk about it whether or not I want to continue on with this conversation.

"For one, I always respected Hinata and treated her like she was my equal and not my lackey," she commented. Ino grimaced and lowered her shoulders while Naruto opened the notebook. "Secondly, I never had any feelings for Kiba and that made things easier for us."

Ino let out a snort. "You know I always thought that if either of you have been born a boy then you two would have gotten together because you two certainly had more devotion than normal."

I had the same thought too. She stared up at the ceiling and lowered her shoulders. Although Kyoya was nothing like Hinata, she did know if things had been different then she would have been with the Hyuga Heiress. After all, her friend had been there for her and believed in her when no one else did.

It would have been the one that made sense.

(Once she came back from that alternate reality, she concluded that her thoughts had been right because even though her male self was an idiot…and her complete opposite, Hinata still loved and appreciated him. It was a pity that her male self had a crush on Sakura, who was just as foolish as her counterpart).


"Maybe I should come back later, it seems like you have got a lot of paperwork."

Naruto eyed the stacks of paper on the table and then flickered her eyes to Kyoya. Her partner glared at the stacks of paper before he gestured for her to come into the room. He has time for me to tell him my good news? She curved her lips into a smile and closed the door behind before she made her way to the table.

She was about to sit on top of the table, only for her partner to pull her towards him and seated her on his lap. Naruto raised an eyebrow and allowed a smile to widen when he looked away. It seems like he wants me on his lap so he doesn't go and find the person that gave him this paperwork. She stared at those blank grey eyes of her partner.

"Kusakabe." He is the reason behind this much work. That was her understanding and that only made her sigh. It really didn't surprise her when she thought about it and with a shake of her head, Naruto pressed a kiss against Kyoya's chin. As entertaining as it was to see his bad mood, she needed him to calm down.

Kyoya eyed her and a dangerous smile crept up on his lips. Naruto shivered and fluttered her eyes before she allowed her hands to wander up his chest. "Can I guess why he didn't finish it? He probably thought that he couldn't do a good enough job for a perfectionist like you."

Her partner looked almost amused by her words and a squeak escaped her lips when a pair of heated hands slipped underneath her shirt. The heat of those hands brought out shivers of delight down her spine, made her head a little bit of dizzy and all she could do was stare at the darken grey eyes of Kyoya.

"It is still too much paperwork," he growled and his hands crawled up to the straps of her bra.

She chuckled and then groaned when he cupped her breasts. I'm starting to understand my future self. It took all of her willpower not to mewl from the fire that he was beginning to ignite on her and with great reluctance, she removed his wonderful hands off of her. Naruto stared at the darkened eyes of Kyoya, leaned a little bit away and chuckled. "Maybe I should leave you alone to your work."

Kyoya cupped her chin and pressed a fiery kiss on her chin before he nipped her neck. Fireworks erupted from beneath her eyes and she couldn't stop herself from exposing her neck to him as she rubbed against him. She finally moaned. "What did I do to deserve that, Kyoya?"

A throaty laugh escaped his lips, his chest rumbled and she clung onto him when he nibbled on her ear. A growing cloud of pleasure build up inside of her as her stomach curled up into a tight ball of desire. The black-haired boy caressed the back of her neck and murmured. "For laughing at my misery."

She chuckled and whimpered when he cupped her breast and began to tease her nipple. "But I'm in an even better mood, today."

It seemed like her partner was happy for her because his fingers began to unbutton her school shirt. She knew she should stop him, stop his wicked mouth from kissing the exposed skin but it felt so good. Too good. Her brain almost short circuited when he parted her shirt and unclasped her bra.

He tossed it to the side and stared at her exposed chest with desire in his eyes. "More money, Little Fox?"

"I got Ұ 110,000,000!" she released a moan when he kissed her nipple. The tip of his tongue ran over it and cries erupted from her lips. We should definitely stopped! We are in school! But she couldn't stop herself from grinding against him and Kyoya didn't even look like he cared because he toyed with her left breast.

He grabbed her waist and sat her on top of his desk, didn't seem to care about the fact that his papers were now on the floor. "How did the Little Fox get the money?"

"Xanxus wanted to know," she paused and whimpered when he began to plant kiss up her thighs. "God, he…he wanted to know what made me want to destroy my home."

She felt his hot breath against her panties and a huge part of her felt almost the beginning of a thrill to know that they were doing this in the middle of the schoolday. We were interrupted this morning. The memory made her groan and that was why she didn't protest when Kyoya slid off her underwear and tossed it behind him.

"You are going to tell him?" he asked, pulling her skirt down and stared up at her.

Naruto inhaled and allowed her fingers to wander back to her skirt. She hiked it up and caressed her lower lips as grey eyes darkened at the sight. "He paid for the info."

"And will the Little Fox tell me what she wants to do?" he breathed, placed his finger around her clit. Is this his new way of getting info out of me? It seemed like it and while she enjoyed the money, this was… far more pleasurable. Her breaths seemed to be quickening as Kyoya continued to play her like a violin.

She grabbed his hair and placed it closer to her starving lower lips. "Pay me and I'll tell you my whole plan."

Kyoya offered her a dangerous smirk, licked his lips and moans escaped her lips when his hot breath caressed her cunt. Of course, he understood me. The kitten licks on her lower lips made her toes curled up. Yup, this was definitely going to be the new way that he would forever pay her back.

He pulled away from her and looked up at her. "Is this the payment that the Little Fox desire? For me to make her cum? To make her feel good."

"New way of paying me…" she agreed as he dived back in to taste her again. Only him. More moans and cries came out of her lips as she hiked her skirt even higher because god did she need to get his hair. Her hand gripped on his hair and he seemed to understand her desires because he ate her like she was his nectar. "…Is to make me cum."

His eyes never left her and smirked even wider when she slid his fingers inside of her. This feels good. So good that her legs trembled from the impending explosions from her lower core. It didn't take long before her legs quivered and for her cries to slice through the air. She slumped against the table and offered a weak smile to Kyoya, who licked his lips.

"Little Fox," he caressed her hair and looked almost pleased by what his actions had done to her. "You enjoy the payment?"

She chuckled. "Enjoy it so much that I didn't care about everyone hearing us, but I'll pay you back when we get home."

The words lingered on the air and it didn't take long before her mind processed what she had just said. Shit, I just said something that I shouldn't have just said. With how often she stayed over his home, it was becoming more and more like her home than the one that she currently lived.

"Uncle will hear us," he reminded her.

If you know a way to keep things down then we can do whatever we want. While he might not have said it, she could hear his intentions and Naruto bobbed her head. She made her way to the back of the room, ignored the darkened eyes of Kyoya and picked up her fallen underwear from the ground.

"You are really corrupting me, Skylark," she informed him. "I can't keep my hands off of you."

The smirk on her partner's widened and he commented. "What is the plan?"

I should tell him the whole plan. It wasn't just because he made her feel good or because of the future, but because Kyoya was probably the only person that she could truly trust. Besides, if anyone should know the whole extent of her revenge towards Konoha than it should be him.

So she sat there and told him of the whole plan.

Throughout the retelling of whole plan, she knew that she had his support and…that was the best feeling in the world.

(Even when Sawada messed up and allowed her alternate self meet Kyoya, he made sure that her alternate self didn't ruin her plans and her hard work for the future).


A/N: The next chapter should see more interaction between Naruto and Xanxus as well as some interaction between Kyoya and Naruto alongside Tsuna and Naruto. After the next chapter, it will be the alternative Naruto arc and then we will be in the final stretch of the story.
