Story Start!
"Uuuuh, after training with Naruto, and watching anime with a client ALL night... I'm sure he's understand me not showing up. I told him I might be too tired to show." Issei groaned as he lay face down in his bed. He failed to complete even a single pact with a human, and spent so much time with a single client watching anime with them.
Fun anime, but still didn't get a pact out of it.
Add that to the exhaustion he got from training with Naruto and overworking his Sacred Gear's power, he just didn't have the energy to get out of bed. He would apologize to Naruto by buying him fast food or something, but he just couldn't go to the park to meet him right now.
He hoped that he wasn't missing anything important.
-Location: The Park with Naruto-
'Seems like Issei was too tired, guess that's my fault for sparring with him.' Naruto blamed himself for Issei not being able to show up to hang out. He would stay around for a little bit longer though, maybe another hour or so, just to see if Issei would show up despite him being tired or whatever reason he wasn't showing up.
A nun his age.
She was pretty, and was currently walking while pulling a large suitcase on wheels around. She had beautiful blond hair, golden blond the exact same color as his own. She had a fair peach skin much like his own skin color, though a shade lighter, and her face was heart shaped with very rounded cheeks like his own was. With her nun dress on, her body was harder to judge, but she was clearly healthy if what was visible of her slightly toned legs indicated anything.
'She's got such pretty long hair.' Naruto thought to himself, before he turned his head and looked away from her with crossed arms.
Women were thots, he needed to remember that, despite there being nothing wrong with looking at women.
"Woah!"
Naruto launched into action when he saw her trip on uneven ground on the stone pathway of the park, rushing towards her as fast as he could as she fell. He ignored her luggage completely, since that didn't matter. Naruto grabbed her by the back of the dress, and pulled backwards to level her out.
"Ah!?" The girl was shocked and flailed her arms around as a result of being yanked backwards, and she accidently smacked Naruto in the eye with her flailing hands. Her well maintained fingernail got him perfectly in the eye, and he flinched back as he yanked on her harder. He ripped her dress along the back, but she was back on her feet again without needing to trip all the way to the ground.
"AH! Scusa!"
'She's a foreigner... not Japanese.' Naruto thought as he rubbed his eye. Her accent was Italian, he could see that for a fact. She also seemed to be an Italian national if her dress and her luggage that had spilled on the ground was any indicator. She also had Italian money hidden in her luggage, and a very small amount of Japanese money. 'Italian, for sure... if I'm right, about 30% of Italians speak English.' Naruto learned the world's most common languages for a reason.
English was the most widely spoken language in the world, but Naruto knew some basic phrases in many other languages. With most people who could speak multiple languages knowing how to speak English.
He could speak English and Spanish as alternate languages, considering how well spread those two languages were they were his best bets to being able to speak with the world at large.
'He's... he looks like me.' The girl thought as she looked over Naruto's looks. "Ah! Sei ferito!" The girl declared when she saw Naruto's bruised cheek, cut lip, and half-healed bear scratches on his arm. He had already stopped rubbing his eye where she got him, but his eye was slightly red from the contact.
"Parli spagnolo o inglese?" Naruto asked the girl.
"Si! Yes, I speak both English and Spanish, many people who spoke those languages came to the church to be saved. Thank God's grace that I've met a person I can talk to. You're injured, it wasn't me who did that to you're face, if so I'm incredibly sorry!" The girl tried to imitate Japanese custom by bowing to him, and Naruto rubbed the back of his head. He kept his face as neutral as he could make it.
This girl seemed nice.
Her eyes were very warm, and she looked at his injuries with actual concern in them.
"I'm fine, sorry about your dress... didn't mean to rip it." Naruto grumbled out an apology, since there was a long rip going 7 inches down her back, showing off her skin and her bra strap. Naruto could see over her shoulder, she was a decent amount shorter than he was (he liked being taller than people), and Naruto blinked when she reached out towards him and grabbed him by the arm.
He pulled away by instinct, so she grabbed his shirt instead.
"Come on, lets heal your wounds."
"You don't need to do that to thank me." Naruto turned more awkward when she led him to the bench, and when she sat down, the fact that she was holding his shirt got him to sit down with her. She extended her hands towards the scratches on his arm, and two silver rings appeared on her fingers and her hands started to glow green. She placed them down onto his arm.
His scratchs started to slowly heal, but even slowly it was still at an incredible speed considering a normal person would take 2 months to lose all traces of scratches like these, and get a scar forever.
"It's not to thank you, you're hurt so I want to help you. God gave me this power to help others, it's his gift to me, and I should share it with others."
"O-oh..." Naruto was shut up by her words, since he didn't have any reason to try and refuse her healing him. The girl gave him a quick glance, since he showed no real surprise at her being able to heal. '... Must be one of those Sacred Gear things that Issei has... only she has a healing one. Kind of makes me jealous, wish I had a Sacred Gear.' Naruto thought as his arm was finished healing, and she moved onto his face.
"I'm Asia Argento... thank you for helping me, by the way." Asia introduced herself as she healed his wounded face.
Naruto locked eyes with her for a second.
Warmth.
Both Asia and Naruto looked away from each other with slightly red cheeks when they both gazed at the warmth in each other's eyes. Naruto had never met a girl who contained so much warmth in her eyes before, it was a little jolting for him to meet a girl who gave off such an air of purity and love for mankind.
'His eyes... his eyes were very kind, and they were very hurt.' Asia thought as she glanced back towards Naruto.
They were the same.
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki, so... this is your Sacred Gear right? I've recently made a friend who has one of those." Naruto introduced himself, and Asia smiled gracefully. She finished healing his face, and she stood up and walked to her spilled luggage. She leaned down and started to pick up her scattered belongings.
Naruto blinked, before he got up and reached out to help her.
"Oh, you don't have to do that, I spilled it so I can clean it myself." Asia yelped in surprise when she was finished talking, and she reached out to yank her panties out of Naruto's hands. He had picked that up, along with a bottle of holy water and a spare dress that she had. She only yanked the panties out of his hands though, with bright red cheeks. "So-sorry you had to see something so disrespectful."
"Pff." Naruto couldn't restrain his small laugh at her reaction.
"Eh... haha..." Asia laughed a little when she heard him laugh. She saw the mirth in his eyes, and she continued to pick up her luggage with his help. "Oh, I ignored your question. This is my Sacred Gear, yes. Twilight Healing, and it-"
"-lets you heal people?" Naruto asked her.
"Oh... yeah, guess that part is explains itself." Asia's reaction to her own motor mouth was cute. Naruto laughed a little more, before he put a neutral look on his face when he realized he was enjoying talking to Asia.
Women brought nothing but trouble, he needed to remember that.
"So, what brings you to Japan?" Naruto quickly changed the subject as they finished, and she stood up with her luggage.
This girl was dangerous to him.
"I'm here to work at the church in this town, but... I don't know where it is, and I'm a little lost. You wouldn't happen to know where it is, would you?" Asia asked Naruto with a hopeful look in her eyes.
Naruto and Asia couldn't help themselves.
'It's her damn eyes, they just keep drawing me in.' Naruto couldn't look away from her expressive eyes. Eyes that just showed the world what was hidden inside of her heart, not even hidden actually. Her eyes spoke volumes about her true intentions and her feelings, she was an open book to anyone who made eye contact with her.
Her beautiful, honest green eyes.
Asia blushed and looked away from Naruto's eyes, but she kept glancing towards them.
'They're so deep and hurt, but they are also so honest and filled with kindness. He's just like me.' Asia smiled to herself as she kept glancing into his eyes.
It was addiction.
It was shameful, but she loved looking into his expressive blue eyes. He might be forcing his face to take on a neutral look, but those blue eyes expressed everything about him. They were glass windows into his soul, and showed he had been hurt. He didn't want to trust others, but he was getting involved with her because he was a good and warm person. The coldness on his face didn't reach his eyes, which showed nothing but his inner warmth.
"No, I don't know..." Naruto saw Asia's eyes show her disappointment that he didn't know where the Church was. "Bu-but, I can help you find it, I'm not doing anything today! I can show you around town, I don't know it that well myself. I'm hungry, so maybe we can get something to eat too, my treat! I can get you a new outfit to replace the dress I ripped!" Naruto offered, since he still had some of the money left from when he mugged the gangsters who visited the school.
Asia smiled.
"You don't have to get me clothes, but I appreciate you showing me around! I would love to go with you! As a thanks, when we get to the Church, you should stay for some tea!" Asia spoke, and Naruto nodded his head.
That sounded good to him.
Naruto took his jacket off and put it over her shoulders when he realized that her bra was still showing, and so was a lot of her back.
"Well... at least use this to cover your back up. You can keep it, I needed to get a new one anyway." Naruto stated with a grin.
Asia's smile was like starlight when she saw his grin, and the two blushed and looked away from each other.
'No... my heart didn't do that... My heart did NOT just skip a beat.' Naruto thought as he shivered as a horrifying thought came over him.
Asia just smiled brighter.
'He's so nice, my heart skipped a beat. I would love to be friends with him, good friends... and see a lot more of him.' Asia was happy that her heart skipped a beat when she saw his grin. He seemed so happy for a second, happiness when he helped her. Her hands gripped his jacket around her shoulders tightly, truly appreciating the gesture.
Naruto looked down at Asia, before he scratched his cheek.
She was dangerous to his heart.
Yet, why did he want to keep walking with her?
Chapter End!

10K Chapter?
Well, for each chapter with 100 thoughtful reviews, there will be a 10K chapter for this story!
I repeat 100 Good Reviews = 10K chapter.
If we don't reach the goal, but get close to it, I'll still update with a longer than normal chapter anyway, just not 10K.
Bonus: I bet you thought I was going to have Naruto speak Italian to speak with Asia, huh?
Wrong! English is spoken by 29% of Italians, and since Asia has a higher chance of speaking it because of her Church work.
