Disclaimer: I do not own High School DxD or Naruto.

AN: So, again, I'd like to thank all the people who took the time to say they enjoyed last chap, and also left their thoughts on it. To the people who said they didn't like last chap in a respectable way, I'd like to say I respect your view too. To the guest who kinda flamed me… I mean, I don't know why someone would purposefully log out of their account and then leave a stupid flame on someones' story. If you honestly don't like this fic, then you know, leave a review that tells me that in a respectable manner… or you know just leave, but it's whatever man.

The guest who said it was stupid to not start off as a single pairing and then end up as one… Yeah… I honestly don't know how to respond to that, coz well, even if I don't think it's stupid… you obviously do, and I think it's cool that you think someone should stick to one partner for their entire life and not have a relationship with more than one partner

RECAP:

Naruto grit his teeth even further, "You disgust me." His eyes narrowed even further when he saw her surprised look, "Hiding behind a family name, like it will give you power to survive this night. I'll make you pay for making me fight the first real friend I made Rias Gremory." Naruto's hand was soon covered in light, and when it died down, the same sword he summoned when he was with Lucifer appeared. He glanced down at it, and sighed in disappointment, "My blade won't even unsheathe for me, which means you die now." The sword vanished, and Naruto soon followed, appearing next to Rias in a flash, but soon had to dodge a massive blow to the head, and jump back from a sword slash.

"We're here for Asia-san, Naruto…" Koneko looked at him, with something of a mix between anger and sadness, playing in her eyes. "…don't make me fight you." She breathed deeply and then took a fighting stance, "Because I will."

"Asia?" Naruto scanned the destroyed church to see where Asia was, until his eyes fell on a completely still body. His eyes then went back to Koneko, and then to Raynare, "I told you not to touch Asia, Raynare. I told you she would die if you took her sacred gear!"

"You…" Raynare coughed even more blood when she tried to speak, "You aren't the boss of me Naruto. We're not all as lucky as you were."

"I told you I would leave if you went through with your plan, and you did anyway." Naruto stood straight and dusted himself off, "Did you kill them, did you kill Kalawarner and the others?" Naruto pointed his glare at Rias when he asked that question, and then waited for her answer.

"Yes…" Rias wanted to continue speaking, but was quickly cut off when Naruto spoke louder than her.

"Then your time will soon come." Four wings sprouted from his back, and the ground shattered when he took off through the fragile roof of the church. Intent on going back to the bar, knowing that his belongings were most likely destroyed.

BEGIN CHAPTER:

"Naruto… dude where are you?"

Naruto rubbed his face and slowly opened his eyes, taking note of the aching pain in his head, and the fact that he was laying over a couch in just a boxer. "Tojiro… is that you?" He looked around; trying to take in his surroundings, but all he saw was empty bottles and nachos on the floor and furniture. "Where are we man?"

"We're…" Tojiro's sentence was cut off when he suddenly threw up in the trash bin he held under his mouth. He moaned in pain and wiped his mouth, "Damn… anyway we're in our new apartment I think."

"What happened last night?" Naruto pushed the bottles on the couch down to the floor and lay down on it, sighing in relief when his head hit the soft pillows.

Tojiro shuffled over to Naruto, pushing the bottles in front of him away with his feet as he walked, and slunk down in front of the couch, "Dude… I remember you being all angry about something, us talking for a while, and me saying we should throw a party to welcome you as my new roommate, and then… blank." He turned his head toward Naruto, and made an effort to hold back the urge to throw up again, "What do you remember?"

"Same as you, but for some reason I remember us stealing some guys Ferrari and then picking up random women, while dropping them off at an apartment complex." Naruto rubbed his temples in an effort to try and calm his headache, "Did we steal some guys' car?"

"Ugh… let me check my pockets." Tojiro emptied his pockets and looked at everything that came out of it. "Uhh… I have a bill for all this alcohol, six numbers, meaning my phone is gone again, and some money for food I guess." He looked up at Naruto with a questioning look, "I would ask you to do the same, but it seems like you don't have any pants on."

Naruto absentmindedly scratched his chest, and stared at the ceiling in disinterest, "I wonder where my clothes went, and do we have to go to work today?"

"I think it's our day off…" Tojiro stared at the things lying on the ground, and caught sight of a note, "…Hey, it looks like you have training with Samael today, and I have the day off."

"I still can't believe you're his brother in law." Naruto looked down at Tojiro with a weak grin on his face, "What's it like to have a sister like Mazikeen?"

Tojiro instinctively winced when he thought about Mazikeen, "If you don't mind constant flicks to the back of your head when you're annoying, then she's cool." He stood up and stumbled toward a door, that looked like an old western saloon door, "I'm gonna make some breakfast, you want some?"

"Yeah."

Tojiro smirked as he looked back at Naruto while saying, "Then come and make some."

Naruto sat up on the couch, and rubbed his face again, "Damn you, you bastard…" He was about to continue his rant, but he heard a sound coming from the couch. He stuck his hand in between the couch cushions, and to his surprise pulled out his phone. "Wonder who it is…" He touched the answer button and put it on loud speaker, "Hello?"

"…Naruto… is that you?"

Naruto sighed when he recognized the voice, "Morning Koneko-san, how are you doing today?"

"I'm fine, but why are you only picking up now?"

Tojiro stuck his head out of the kitchen at that moment, "Yo, Naruto, if you don't get your ass up you'll be late!" He winced after he yelled that sentence, and grumbled about stupid ideas before going back to breakfast.

Naruto also winced at the volume of Tojiro's voice, and he pinched the bridge of his nose in annoyance, "Damn that bastard, anyway, let's talk later Koneko, I have to go." He hung up and went into the kitchen, to at least eat something before his day started.

Tojiro looked up from his breakfast when he saw Naruto walk into the kitchen, and gained a perverted smirk, "Soooo, was that the girl you were so angry over last night?"

"Yeah…" Naruto sighed as he took a sandwich out of Tojiro's plate and sat down next to him, "Damn Koneko…" He took a bite of the sandwich and started chewing, "…I can't believe I misjudged her like that." He looked across the table and saw Tojiro drinking something, "Can I get some of that?"

Tojiro smirked as he looked at Naruto and down to the drink in his hand, "Do you really want to drink blood so early in the morning?"

"Ugh… so Vampires actually drink blood like juice, or are you just weird like that?" Naruto put his sandwich down and walked over to the fridge, taking out a beer and drinking it while still standing there.

"Meh I picked it up from my old man, haven't really thought about it as weird though." Tojiro licked some blood off his lips and turned to Naruto, "Anyway, what are you going to do about your clothes?"

Naruto looked down at his boxers, and actually thought about that dilemma for the first time, "I don't really know… do you have something you haven't worn yet?"

-The Fallen One-

Naruto adjusted the pink tie he had on, and grumbled as he looked at the pink vest and pink pants he also wore. "Damn that Vampire bastard…" He didn't like wearing flashy colors nowadays, and this bright pink color went completely against his dress code. He walked up to where he saw Samael sitting and slumped down next to the man, while nursing his temples, "Morning boss, and sorry I'm late."

Samael sipped his martini and glanced at Naruto as he lay his head on the counter, "Morning Naruto, and if I may be so forward as to ask, where is my Ferrari?"

Naruto looked up at the man with half closed eyes, and then sighed, "First let me just say that I'm surprised it was yours, even if it doesn't look like it. Second, I do not know where your car is."

"Hmm…" Samael took another sip of his martini and glanced at the watch on Naruto's arm this time, "…at least you still have that."

Naruto looked at the watch and then back to Samael, "I took it off when Tojiro said we'd have a party." He then reached behind the counter and took out his emergency hangover beer, before sitting up in his chair and drinking it.

Samael nodded in approval before looking back at the watch, "Seems she's late again…"

"Who are you-"

"Oooo~ Lucifoo-chan~ I'm hoooome~!" Naruto's sentence was cut of by a womans' loud yelling, and he winced in pain as her voice rang through his head. He watched in astonishment as a pink blur shot passed him, and almost tackled Samael out of his chair. "O, did you miss me, did you miss me, Lucifoo-chan?! Huh huh?!"

Samael sighed as he tried to keep his composure, while the pink haired woman rubbed her cheek against his, "Could you keep your voice down, Hinan, our guest has somewhat of a hangover."

"What…" Hinan gasped dramatically when she saw who sat next to Samael, and then immediately let go of the man. She walked next to Naruto, and then leaned in, until her nose touched his, "Could it be? No way…" She giggled when he leaned away from her, but then she turned away from him and back to Samael, "Is that him? Oooo~ if it is, can I keep him, hmm… can I?"

"His name is Naruto, Hinan, and no you can't keep him." Samael grunted in frustration when the woman broke down, and started to soak his shoulder in her tears, "Damn it, Hinan, can you stop acting like a child for a moment?"

Naruto took that moment to interrupt the two's little conversation, to find out who exactly this crazy woman was, "Hey Samael, who is this?"

"This Naruto, is your training…"

Hinan quickly recovered from her funk, and slung an arm around Naruto's neck, "My name is Hinan, you hunk of a man…" She giggled at him and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, "…also, you'll be coming with me today. We're gonna take out an army or whatever~." Hinan suddenly clapped her hands and sat on the counter in front of Naruto, "That's not important though, because after that we'll be going on a date, right?" She crossed her legs and leaned in toward Naruto, "Right?"

Naruto, for his part, just put his empty beer bottle down and turned toward Samael, "Explain to me what she meant by an army, Samael, because I'm not in the mood to decipher that."

Samael looked at the pouting Hinan, and then back to Naruto, "Hinan is one of my four generals, Naruto, and I've tasked her with training you. Especially with your sword, because I am certain you haven't been given enough opportunities to use it."

Hinan ruffled Naruto's hair and then smiled down at him, "So what do you think about my outfit Naru-chan?"

Naruto gave the womans outfit a quick scan, and saw that she wore a tight-fitting black dress, with a long slip on her right leg-side. She also had on a pair of stilettos that seemed to be studded with diamonds. He looked into Hinans' green eyes, and saw the small blush on her cheeks, "Are those real diamonds?"

Hinan broke out in laughter as she heard him ask the question, and almost rolled off the counter, but she soon calmed down, "Hmm, yes they are Naru-chan!" She quickly covered her mouth when she saw Naruto wince pain, and gained an apologetic look as she rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment, "O I'm terribly sorry, Naru-chan, I'm told I get too excited sometimes… but Oooo~, look at the time, it's time for us to go!"

Samael watched a vortex appear next to them with a calm expression, and took another sip of his martini, "Make sure they know who you are, Hinan. It's time the underworld starts to know the truth."

"Of course, Lucifoo-chan!" Hinan grabbed Naruto by the wrist, and threw him through the vortex before he knew what was going on, and then turned back to Samael, "I've been waiting so long you know." She licked her lips as she turned back to the vortex, "I've been waiting so long for something interesting to happen!" As soon as she finished, she jumped through the vortex, and it closed behind her.

Samael turned around in his chair and looked at his empty bar, with a sad smile on his face, and took the last sip of his martini, "Well old friend, it looks like we'll be parting ways soon…" His eyes roamed over to his prized piano, that a very famous musician had given him, "…but until then, I'll just enjoy the moment."

He walked over to the piano, and sat down to play a few notes, that is until he remembered something, "Hmm… I do hope Hinan leaves someone alive." He tapped his chin and thought about that possibility for a moment, "I should really have told her to."

-The Fallen One-

Naruto stumbled through the vortex, but quickly regained his footing, and started to dust his clothes off, "Damn, what the hell is that womans problem…"

Hinan gasped from next to Naruto's ear, and tears started to form in her eyes as she looked at him, "Why would you be so mean, Naru-chan~" She slung an arm around his neck and sighed dramatically, "Here your new sensei is, trying to get her student in the best shape of his life, and all he does is insult her year in and year out!" She fell to her knees and looked up at the sky with tears streaming down her eyes, "Where have I gone wrong as a sensei!"

Naruto for his part, could only look at the pink haired woman with a deadpan expression. He shook his head in disbelief, and decided to take in his surroundings. What he saw surprised him, because they were standing on top of a cliff, and below them stood a massive castle, which had guards flying around it. He looked back at the still crying woman, and then sighed, "You know, you haven't even been my sensei for half an hour, right? And where are we anyway?"

"Hey that's right!" Hinan suddenly jumped up and snapped her fingers, "I completely forgot about the 'mission'"

Naruto raised an eyebrow at the emotionally unstable woman, and asked her an obvious question, "Why did you say mission with air quotes?"

"Well~ how about you tell me what you think about my new outfit, and I might tell you about it." Hinan gave a twirl to show off her new outfit, and stared at Naruto expectantly.

"What do you-" Naruto stopped talking when he saw that she had indeed changed her outfit, and now wore a dark-blue mini skirt, with a white see-through top, and white boots. "Ok, now you're just teasing me too much Hinan-san, but could we please just get to why we're here?"

"O, you're just no fun Naru-chan…" Hinan pulled out a pair of glasses, put them on, and then turned to the castle, "Well, basically Naru-chan, there's someone in there that is trying to be all high and mighty with Laviathan-chans' name, and he asked Lucifoo-chan to take care of her." She looked back at Naruto for a moment and asked, "You following?" When she saw him nod, she continued, "Anyway, since Leviathan-chan didn't have the energy, or was most likely too lazy to come here, and Lucifoo-chan is too busy, I got stuck with it. So yeah, she has all these evil human magicians under her control, and we're here to wipe them out."

"Humans?"

"O don't worry Naru-chan, they're all evil, pretty much devils if you ask me, but you just need to fight against the one I was talking about." She glanced back at Naruto with a cheeky smile on her face, "Soooo~ Naru-chan, want to see what your sensei can do, hmmm… do you?!"

"No, I want you to promise me that you won't kill the humans."

"What~! But come on~ I haven't had fun in a while!"

"I won't kill humans, Hinan-san!"

Hinan looked at Naruto with puffed up cheeks for a few seconds, but then she smiled, "Ok, but then you have to call me sensei! O, and you should also drink this, it will help with the hangover." She handed him a vial of clear liquid, with an expectant look.

Naruto sighed in resignation of the womans enthusiasm, but nodded none the less, and took the vial before drinking it, "Sure sensei."

Hinan gained a bright smile when she heard him say that, and she jumped around in excitement, "Yes, finally someone who respects my talents!" She suddenly stopped, and thought about her outburst for a moment, "O wait, I'm suppose to say that after you're stunned by my awesomeness, and beg me to teach you more… OK, HERE I GO!"

Naruto's knees buckled under an invisible pressure when a purple light enveloped Hinan, and a green magic circle appeared before her. He watched in awe as a massive one also appeared over the entire castle, and then started to lower itself onto it. As the circle lowered itself over the castle, it disappeared within the circle, as if the circle was eating the castle. Naruto watched further as half of the castle was 'eaten, and then the circle disappeared. The guards around the castle were going crazy as they searched for the enemy, and Hinan was just laughing at them, she turned to Naruto and smiled at him, "Fall."

Naruto was about to ask her what the hell she said that for, until he saw the massive structure of half a castle falling from the sky, toward the rest of the remaining castle. Hinan laughed even more when she saw the attempts by the magicians to stop the castle, and how they suddenly fell by their own attacks.

Naruto looked at the chaos unfolding in front of him, and then back at the woman who looked like she hadn't even been doing anything. He felt a sudden weight in his left hand and looked down to see his sword already sitting there, which made his eyes widen in shock, "I didn't even call you forth, Ruin, why have you come?"

"Oooo~, is that the sword!" Hinan bent down until she was at eye level with the blade, and then gave it a devilish grin, "Hmmm, can I touch it, please please PLEASE, can I touch it!"

"No!" Naruto held his blade out of the range of Hinans' poking finger, with an angry expression. "Do not ever touch this sheath!"

'Come on, Naruto, let her touch it! I want to see how she looks when she becomes nothing but an empty shell of her former self!'

'Damn this cocky bastard.' Naruto grit his teeth to the point that it strained his jaw. He looked down at the black sheath, with a black sword hilt sticking out of it, and sighed. "I'll ask again then. Why are you here, Ruin?"

"I sensed this womans immense suppressed power when she used a small amount of it. I also felt the madness dwelling within her, and so I came for a fight."

This time Hinan heard what Ruin said, as it spoke aloud now, and she tilted her head in confusion, "Madness? O no, no, no little swordie. I'm simply a little eccentric you see~" She turned around and pointed to the fallen magicians and spread her arms, "You see! I didn't even kill them!"

"We won't be fighting her Ruin, but will you let me use you for another fight?" Naruto knew it was a hopeful request, but it was worth a try.

"No."

'Yeah I thought so, but still…' He looked down at the sword with a glare and gripped it hard, "I need you to co-operate today Ruin! Do not make this difficult for me!"

"…"

"Ruin!"

"What? You know you can't use me without my consent, and you can't just not use me when I want to fight, because I have something you need."

Naruto's anger flared when he was reminded of his mistake, and how Ruin gained the upper hand over him. "Damn you, you damn parasite."

"O? Keep talking like that and you'll keep being the weakling you are!"

Hinan, who had been watching the conversation between Naruto and Ruin, with not much interest, perked up when she heard that and smiled sweetly. "Oooo~ so Naru-chan has a parasite living inside him? How gross can you get?!"

"Ugh… It just acts like a parasite, Hinan-san, so don't call me gross." Naruto took hold of the sword hilt and breathed in deep, "This is your last chance to consent, Ruin!"

"You do know what happens if you draw that sword, yes?"

Naruto couldn't see it, but he knew Ruin had a massive grin on its face, and was definitely enjoying this but he needed to go through with it. "Yes, because when the time comes, I will need to have mastered you."

"O, master me you say? … I wonder if I should give you a chance, just to see you fail?"

"No~! I want to see what happens when he draws that sword without your consent!" That outburst came from Hinan who was waving her arms in the air, with an excited glint in her eyes- most likely curious of what would happen if he did. Then she suddenly turned around to look at the destroyed castle in interest, "O, looks like our target is getting ready to come and meet her attackers!" She clapped her hands in excitement, and shouted in glee, "I can't wait to see you in action, Naru-chan!"

"Fine."

Naruto knew what that one word meant immediately, and he smiled at finally getting his power back again. "I've been waiting a long time for this." He sprouted four wings from his back, and raised his magic power to its limit, then he drew his sword.

Hinans' eyes sparkled even further when she looked at the golden-white aura that started to surround Naruto. "Wow~!" She clapped her hands in praise, and watched further as the aura expanded into a circle around him and exploded into the morning sky. She didn't even close her eyes against the blinding light the aura caused, and just tried take in every detail that she could. When the aura finally disappeared , stars could be seen in Hinans' eyes, and she looked like a child on Christmas who received the present he had wanted all along. She pushed her glasses up a little and said, "That was totally worth the risk to have impaired vision from now on!"

She ran up to Naruto and hugged him around the neck while giggling, "You're so cute! And look at this; you even have eight wings now?! How cool is this?!"

How she moved from hugging his neck, to curiously poking at his wings faster than he could see, Naruto did not know. However, just like she said, Naruto now had eight black wings sprouting from his back. He smiled when he felt his own power flowing through his body again, after who knows how long. "Sigh… This feels so much better." He slapped Hinans' poking finger away when she continued to do so, and looked at the person flying toward them.

"Hinan-san, cou…"

"Hey, hey, hey… I told you to call me Hinan-sensei!"

"Hinan-sensei, could you take care of this watch for a little while?" Naruto took the watch Samael gave him off, and held it out to her in his palm.

"Sure, I'll be over here relaxing while I watch you." Hinan took the watch from him and then went to sit on a chair, which seemingly came out of nowhere.

"Ok, that's it! How do things just pop out of nowhere around you?!"

"Well~, you see… O, look Leviathan-chan is here!" said Hinan, pointed behind him and smiling excitedly.

"Who the hell dares attack ME! Do you know who I am, commoners?!"

Naruto heard a loud crash behind him, and then heard a woman scream at the top of her lungs at them. Curious to see who this angry woman is, he turned around to look at her. When he saw who it was however, anger erupted from his very core! When he saw that brown skin, blue eyes and red-framed glasses, dark brown hair, and sinister scowl, he knew exactly who it was. "YOU!"

The new arrival was a little shocked by Naruto's sudden outburst, but when she finally recognized his face, she started to laugh, "Hahaha! You have to be kidding! This weakling wants to pick a fight with me again?! How stupid can he be!"

"O? Weakling she said… I would not have let that slide Naru-chan~!"

Naruto ignored Hinans' pointless comment and charged magic power into the sheath in his left hand. When he was satisfied with the amount stored in it, his eyes morphed into the shape of the earth and he suddenly disappeared from the womans view, only to reappear beside her, "Die!" The point of his sheath slammed into her stomach before she could even register what he was doing, and blue lightning erupted from it, and through her stomach.

The woman sunk to her knees in shock, held her bleeding stomach, and looked up to Naruto with disbelieving eyes, "What the hell… you were just a weakling last time…"

Hinan for her part, spit the tea she was about to drink out in surprise, and her eyes bugged out in a comical fashion, "Whaaaaaat! What was that?! Boooooooooooooo! I want my money back dammit!" She was about to go on with her rant when she saw Naruto aim the point of the sheath to the womans face, and quickly appeared beside him to grip his wrist, "Hey now, I was told to keep her alive you know~… so if you kill her, I'll be in BIG trouble~"

Naruto glared at Hinan, and tried to free his wrist from her grip, but she was surprisingly strong, "Let go Hinan! I'll kill her right now!"

Hinan gave Naruto a sweet smile and her eyes narrowed as a result, "Now Naru-can~…" Her grip became far stronger suddenly, and Naruto had to tighten his arm, or it would break, "…sensei needs her alive, so won't you let me handle this please?"

'What the hell is this feeling of dread?'

'I told you how dangerous she is fool!'

'Damn…' He grit his teeth and glared down at the woman, who was bleeding in front of him, '…will killing this devil be worth it if it means fighting Hinan?' With Ruin willingly working with him, he could stand a chance, but that was a big 'if', so he took the cautious root for now until he knew what Hinan could really do. "Ok, I'll stand down."

Hinan immediately let go of Naruto's wrist, and clapped her hands excitedly, "Yay! Now, time to be serious, so calm down Hinan…" She hummed to herself for a few seconds and then bent down, until she was face to face with the other woman, "Hey Leviathan-chan~!" When she saw the woman floating in and out of consciousness, she gripped her hair and then gave her a few slaps, "Hey, hey, you need to stay awake ok? Come on~ they might even come and save you in a few moments! But look I'm getting off topic now, because of you!" Hinan shook her head to stay focused and then pointed her finger at the woman, "Look, if you survive, we will need you to go and tell the others who are trying to start chaos, that the ones they're descendants of don't want that ok?! Hey, you better be listening, or we will get very angry! Coz, you know, we will be the ones to do that so we don't want unwelcome variables!" She slapped the woman for good measure and then smiled, "Hmm… also, don't be hung up on revenge like blondie seems to be, that's just not cool! O wait, no, that's not what I was suppose to say…" She tapped her finger on her chin, and pressed her lips together, as if to think about what she was to say next. "Right! What I meant was- Deliver the message, or you all die. Us 'elders' don't have much patience you know?" With her piece said, she gave the woman one last slap just because she wasted her time.

Hinan jumped up to her feet, and stretched with a satisfied smile, before turning around to Naruto, "So, what was that about Naru-chan?"

"…"

"Hmm… personal hey? What, did she rape you? Fufufu… just kidding, come on let's get out of here!" A vortex suddenly appeared behind Naruto, and he walked through it without a word.

"Naru-chan~ I still have your watch you know?"

-The Fallen One-

A few minutes after Naruto left with Hinan, Samael was still playing the piano, but he suddenly stopped when he heard someone speak over by the counter. "Hmm… I always loved it when you played, my child. How wonderful it is to hear your talent up close again."

Samael looked up when he heard a familiar female voice, that should no longer exist, and his eyes slightly widened when he looked into the eyes of the woman. Those piercing blue eyes, long silky grey hair and serene smile, there was no mistaking who it was. "How dare you…" It came out as nothing more than a whisper, but the malice carried in Samaels' voice projected his true feelings. His eyes narrowed, and a moment later his prized piano shattered into splinters.

"O…" The woman seemed surprised by this development; however, she stayed calm and just crossed her legs to the other side. "…I was certain you would destroy Japan in a fit of rage after seeing me in this form. How disappointing that it did not work out as planned."

"How can you be this cruel father…" Black substance started to leak off of Samaels body by this point, but he did his best to reign in his emotions, and after the woman didn't reply he continued. "Why show yourself as my dead wife? Are only here to torment me?!"

"Hmm…" The woman started to tap her finger on the counter, and her smile turned into something between charming and sadistic. "Now why would I torment you, my child? In fact, I have only come to ask you not to get involved with this supposed treaty that is to take place soon." She stopped tapping her finger, and looked at her surroundings for the first time, "Quite a comfy place you have here by the way."

"Or what? You will kill me in the form of the woman I loved most in this world?" By now Samael was radiating with power, and the black substance that was leaking off of him, was eating away at his surroundings. "Or are you here for Naruto?"

"Hmm… O heavens no, it's not time for any of that yet. This little story of ours is only in its prologue. Your chapter has not yet come and little Naruto is our protagonist, isn't he? Yes, yes, he must first find out who and what I am, and then find the determination to kill me…" The woman stopped talking when she saw Samael become increasingly angry, and she waved her finger in a circle, which shot out golden chains that restrained him. Then she continued as if nothing happened afterwards, "Yes, then he must gain love, so I can crush it before his very eyes." A glint shined in her eyes for a second, and she smiled sweetly at Samael, "Don't you think a broken protagonist is much more interesting, him being a flawed hero and all that? Hmm… I can see him using those eyes of mine to hunt me down, and a glorious battle ensuing after that. How exciting is that?"

Samael growled at the woman in front of him, "Father, he will stop what you are planning… I will make certain of that!"

That statement did not manage to erase the womans sweet smile, and she just continued to tap her finger, "Hmm… that's why you're here, don't you know? When the student sees his teacher die by the 'evil' God, it will make for an interesting development, right? At least I think so…" She stood and walked over to Samael, "Of course, he has my eyes, so things will not always work out as I've planned…" A light glow enveloped the woman and she slowly changed her form into an old man, with long white hair, black eyes, white beard and a white robe. "Hmm… I saw you getting progressively angry, so it's best to change into a form you are comfortable with. As I was saying though, I need Naruto to gain all sorts of things, so you must play your part in this you know?"

"You can talk all you want Father, but we both know Naruto will destroy you…" Samael glared at the new face in front of him, "…and I will see that happen."

"No, I'm afraid that just wont do…" The old man started to walk around Samael in a circle, all the while scrutinizing him with his eyes, "You must die when your chapter comes, that's the cornerstone of my plan you know? By the way, you have become strong, haven't you? Almost as strong as I am, in fact… hmm, too bad you have reached your limit."

"Why are you really here Father?!"

"O, yes, I certainly came here to ask you to not disturb my plans, but I've also come to give you a gift." The man pulled a scroll out of his robe, and stuffed it in Samaels' pocket, "Those are the whereabouts of beings trying to create chaos in this little game of ours. Seeing as you sent Hinan-chan out to deal with another nuisance, I supposed I'll have you deal with these… I'm busy doing other things, you know?"

"What makes you think we will do your dirty work?" Samael glared at the man before him one last time, and then power erupted from him, shattering the chains constraining him and sending a shockwave through his bar.

Nothing was destroyed in the bar, however, and the old man just continued to smile, "Hmm… you would have really regretted that if I hadn't shielded this place from damage, you know? Anyway, you'll do it because you want to, of course, when have you actually done what I order you to?" The man gave Samael one last smile, before disappearing without a trace, but one last statement floated in the air. "By the way… I will find the girl soon enough, Lucifer."

Samael stared at the place his father stood for a few seconds, before walking over to the counter with shaky hands, "Damnit, how did he find out about her? I made sure he lost his eyes before making my move!" He grit his teeth in frustration, and tried to make himself a martini to calm down, but found it impossible with his shaking hands. He looked at the glass in front of him, and then threw it against the wall in frustration, "FUCK!"

When he noticed his breathing had become erratic, he sat down and ran a hand through his hair in frustration. He took out his phone and held three to speed dial, when he heard it ring only once and someone answered, he sighed in relief, "Get more guards, strengthen every cloaking shield we have and in two weeks you bring her to me. Do not let anyone find that girl, because if they do, then everything will be lost!"

"What happened boss?"

Lucifer thought for a moment if he should tell his old friend what happened, and in the end decided to do just that. "Father knows about her."

"WHAT?!"

"I know, so just do your best." With everything he could do, done, he hung up and looked at his watch. 'It will still be a while till they get back…'

He hadn't even finished thinking that when he suddenly saw a vortex form in front of him. "Lucifoo-chan~!... We're back~!"

Samael looked up in surprise when he heard Hinans' cheerful greeting and looked at her with a disapproving look, "Hinan, I thought I told you to let Naruto handle this. So why are you back so early?"

Hinan frowned when she heard that, and pouted, "Naru-chan went crazy and we were done in no time. It was sooooooo boring~!" She slunk down in a chair and leaned her cheek on her palm, "Now he is just brooding like some emo fake with blond hair."

"Naruto, what happened?" Samael motioned for him to sit, and then finally made that martini he'd wanted.

"Never mind that, what happened to the piano, Lucifoo-chan~!" Hinan was now over by the shattered piano, and kicking the rubble in interest.

"I'll tell you later, Hinan, now come on Naruto."

Naruto put his watch on his wrist and then looked at Samael for a second, "I simply saw one of the devils who killed my captain, best friend, and squad in front of me, so I took care of her… or I would have." He ran his fingers across his watch in thought, and gave a sad smile for a moment, before looking back up to Samael, "Can I have my day off now?"

"Yes."

"Thanks, I'll be on time tomorrow." With that said, Naruto walked out of the door and headed to his destination.

Hinan watched Naruto leave with a sweet smile on her face, "So, you want hear about what happened?" She turned to Samael and her smile became even more excited, "You know he almost attacked me!"

-The Fallen One-

Naruto sipped on the straw of the milkshake he just bought with a satisfied sigh, "Man, it's good to get some sugar in me after a morning like that." He leaned back in his chair and stretched his arms out with a yawn, when he finished his stretch he felt his phone vibrate and then heard it ring. Interested, he looked at the number, but it was unknown so he ignored it. After a while it rang again, and again, so he just picked it up, "Hello?"

"Damnit Naruto, why are you only picking up now?!"

"Tojiro, why are YOU calling me from an unknown number?" Naruto sighed at his irritating friend, and just took another sip of his milkshake to calm down.

"Dude, I lost my phone remember? And anyway, I'm calling 'coz I'm about to have sex."

Another sigh escaped from Naruto's mouth, "I hope you're not taking her to the apartment, because we decided LAST NIGHT to not bring girls home during the day, you bastard!"

"You know, that was a stupid rule because it's only useful when I sleep during the day. So can you do me a solid and not come home yet?"

"Fine, but you have to do the chores for the rest of the month."

"What the hell! Where does that come into play?!"

Naruto gave a victory grin when he heard that outburst, "I don't know which number it is, but check our list of rules." He took another sip and then hung the phone up while Tojiro was still ranting.

"Hey, can I join you for a bit?"

Naruto looked to the side when he heard a familiar voice, and when he looked into her eyes, he almost smiled, "Hey, Koneko-san…" He glanced at the two chocolate cake slices on plates in her hands, and instinctively licked his lips, "Only if I can have one of those…" It was a hopeful ask, because from the few encounters he had with her, she didn't like sharing. He was pleasantly surprised, however, when she smiled and put one plate in front of him.

Koneko sat down across from Naruto, and stared at his milkshake for a moment before looking up at him, "I apologize for the misunderstanding yesterday, Naruto-san."

Naruto took the spoon that came with the slice, and ate a piece of it, "O, this is good cake." He smiled to himself when he swallowed the piece and the flavor still danced on his taste buds, but then he frowned toward Koneko, "It was no mistake, Koneko-san, your devil group attacked Fallen Angels, killed them even. It doesn't matter why you did it, that's what you did." He put the spoon down, and gave a smile toward Koneko, "So I'll ask you one thing, Koneko-san, why do you follow Rias Gremory?"

Koneko looked at Naruto, and then down at the piece of cake on her plate, "You know how you said you're alone? Well I was too, but she took me in and then I was no longer alone."

"Tojiro told me devils have slaves these days, is that what she's doing to you?" Naruto leaned back in his chair and looked at Koneko, to watch her reaction, but none came.

"The Gremory family is very kind to their peerage members, Naruto-san, so please don't call us slaves."

"Koneko, a slave that gets treated kindly is still a slave!" Naruto watched Koneko just eat her slice of cake, and then smile up at him.

"Hey, what's with the familiarity all of a sudden?" She tapped her spoon on the plate for a while and then ate another piece, "Anyway, I just came to apologize if I caused you any trouble. You've been kind to me these past few days."

Naruto looked into the girls' eyes, and he still saw the same loneliness he saw on that first day he met her, "Hey…" He took a chance and slowly took one of her hands into his, then he smiled at her, "You know, if you don't mind, I'd like to get to know you better."

Koneko felt how soft Naruto was touching her hand, and a small blush broke out over her cheeks when she finally registered that he was holding her hand. She looked into Naruto's blue eyes, and before she knew it, she nodded in agreement.

"Cool! So you don't know this, but I didn't much care for earth other than for their sweets before a few weeks ago." Naruto leaned back in his chair with a reminiscing smile, but then went back to sipping his milkshake, "No though, Tojiro has shown me a lot of new things, and I can't get enough of the Arcade."

"Let me guess, you like Anime now too?" Koneko smiled when Naruto stopped eating and nodded in confirmation.

"You like it too?"

"No, but I have to cosplay every now and then for a client… that's fun"

Naruto smirked when he heard the sarcasm laced into those words, "So no anime then, anyway how about I get you a milkshake, and then we go see if there isn't a movie you like screening."

Koneko raised an eyebrow at him and asked, "Who says I want one?"

"Pfff… I see you glancing at mine, and I'm not sharing."

-The Fallen One-

"Ugh… that movie was sooooo boring!"

Koneko took a bite out of the chocolate she was holding, and gave Naruto a blank stare, "You were the one who wanted to watch an action movie."

"It's not like you were complaining!" Naruto massaged his stiff neck, and smiled down at Koneko, "So, you want to shoot some pool? I know a great place."

"I don't know how to shoot pool, though." Koneko frowned a little when she had to admit that she couldn't do something.

"No worries, because if you want, I can even teach how to do it." Naruto turned a corner and pointed ahead of him, "Look there it is, so do you want to learn something new?"

"Why not…"

Naruto smiled down at Koneko, and was just about to say something, when a massive explosion rocked the area they were in and sent people flying. Koneko and him were the only ones who could withstand the shockwave, and so they were the only ones left in the vicinity.

"Naruto the chosen one…"

Naruto raised an eyebrow when he heard his name being said with a title, and he tried to see through all the dust hanging in the air. When he couldn't he decided to check up on Koneko, "Hey, are you ok?"

"Yeah I'm fine." Koneko nodded toward Naruto, and started to put on her fingerless gloves, while glaring in the direction the voice came from.

A golden light suddenly spread through the air, and the dust immediately dissipated, revealing a young black haired man in golden armor. He walked forward until he was only a few feet away from Naruto, and then grinned, "I have been sent to test your skills, and extract some vital information."

Naruto grit his teeth and looked back down at Koneko, "This isn't your fight, so you should just go."

Koneko's eyes widened a little when he suggested she run away, and she glared back at him, "Do you think I can't handle this?!"

"No, I simply mean this isn't your fight." He smiled down at her and gave her a little nudge, "So, just go eat your chocolate somewhere while I deal with this deuce."

The black haired man unsheathed a fairly large broad sword, and stabbed it into the ground before him, and rested his hands on it, "Yes, this is a fight between Naruto and I, Victor Angel!" He gave Koneko a large grin and laughed as if he had already won.

"Like I said, deuce." He looked back at Victor and frowned, "So, don't even be bothered by this."

"Fine then, I won't help." Koneko sighed and walked away from the two, to go and watch the fight from another spot.

Naruto glared at this Victor guy, and his eyes morphed into the shape image of earth, "Who sent you?"

"That should be no secret Naruto. I, Victor Angel, am one of the twelve apostles of God! I have come here to see if you know where that traitor Lucifer is hiding the heathen girl!"

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Victor stopped laughing when he heard Naruto's question and frowned at him, "I am talking about Athena, boy. Where is Lucifer hiding her!"

'What's this guy talking about?' Naruto sighed as he felt the mans power rise, and another shockwave hit him, "This just isn't my day…" He grit his teeth as he summoned his sword again, and gave it a quick glance. "Ruin, don't make this difficult on me."

"I have no qualms with you using my power this time."

Naruto was a little taken back when the sword unsheathed itself with an argument, but he took its attitude at face value, "Twice in one day? Well, at least something goods happening…" He took hold of the hilt, and relished in the feeling of his power flowing back into him when he drew it. A golden aura enveloped him again, and when it finally disappeared, Naruto smirked at Victor. "I don't know what you are talking about, but you have harmed numerous innocent humans, and for that you will pay!"

Victor smirked back at Naruto, and gripped his broadswords hilt with force, "Leo, lend me your strength so I may crush this bug for information!" His broadsword gave of an orange glow, and Victor immediately dashed off toward Naruto.

"Is he serious?" Naruto's eyes narrowed as he saw Victor suddenly disappear in the middle of his dash and then appear right in front of him, ready to slash at him. However, Naruto completely disregarded the victor in front of him, and shot a lightning bolt into the air out of the tip of his sheath.

Victor appeared directly above Naruto with his broadsword pointed in his direction, but was surprised when he saw a lightning bolt heading toward him at blinding speed. He grit his teeth, and narrowly evaded the attack, before pointing his broadsword at Naruto again and finally firing his attack, "Hunters Claw!" His broadsword pulsated with an orange glow, and hundreds of claws rushed out of it, heading straight for Naruto.

"Damn, his fast." Naruto's eyes darted around, taking in every detail of the attack, and then glowed blue. "Got it." His wings moved and he shot of into the sky, crushing the ground around him. His sword glowed bright red and he slashed through one claw, before dashing through the rest of the claws with minimal effort, and heading straight for Victor. He slashed his sword multiple times before him, and it sent dozens of energy arcs flying toward the surprised Victor. He didn't stop there, however, and sent dozens more lightning bolts toward the man out of the tip of his sheath, and then waited to see the outcome.

The attacks hit, and a big explosion occurred that sent smoke flying everywhere, which caused Naruto to frown. His eyes scanned the smoke for any sign of movement in the smoke, and after a few seconds, they glowed with a blue hue.

"Meteor pack!"

Naruto started to spin his sword when he was suddenly surrounded by copies of Victor, and they all let loose a multitude of projectiles with the head of a lion. His sword began to spin faster by his side, while glowing bright red, and a red stream of energy connect his wrist with its hilt. "Death light barrage!" The stream of energy extended and he swung the spinning sword around, which caused hundreds of thin red streams to surround him, before thickening and flying in all directions. Explosions went off all around Naruto at that moment and he gripped his sword again, with narrowed eyes.

His eyes shifted to the side and he blocked a slash from Victors' broadsword, with his sheath, before slashing at the man with his sword. Catching him on the cheek before he could fully dodge and then kicking him away, toward the ground. Naruto smiled as he aimed his sheath toward the already standing Victor, "Idiot." His sheath pulsated with orange energy, and hundreds of claws suddenly shot out of it, heading straight for Victor.

Victors' eyes widened when he saw his own attack being aimed at him, but quickly recovered, and dashed to the side while sending his own claws into the air. "How are you copying my attacks, you thief!"

Naruto smirked, and just moved his sheath along Victors' running path, while sending out orange claws, "None of your business!" He continued sending orange claws out of his sheath, until his sword stopped pulsating an orange color and went back to red, "Damn, I though it would last longer than this!" Naruto grit his teeth and dodged the claws heading his way, before diving down to Victor. His eyes gave off a hue of blue light when he saw Victor split into five different copies, and then sent four of them dashing toward him. As soon as he landed on the ground, he was locked into a four on one battle of swords. He slipped under one of the broadswords strikes, turned around, and kicked on of the Victor copies in the chest which sent it flying into another one. Then he sent a lightning a lightning bolt through the one in front of him, and simply stabbed the one who came running at him. "Too easy, what's he up to?"

"Galactic strike!"

Naruto's eyes widened when a huge orange lion suddenly appeared in front of him, roared, and slashed across his chest with a massive claw. The slash sent Naruto tumbling across the ground, with blood flowing out of the claw wound. He crashed into a destroyed building, and groaned in pain, "Ugh… where did that even come from?"

"Hahaha… it is over now, thief!" Victor stabbed his broadsword into the ground, and rested his hands on it, while the massive lion roared behind him. "Now that Leo has come, you have no chance, so just tell me where she is!"

Naruto pulled himself off the ground, and ran a finger over the claw mark on his chest, "That's probably leaving a scar…" His eyes narrowed at the massive lion, and then he growled. "It's on now, you beast!"

"I can not believe you are losing to an idiot like this."

"Shut up, Ruin!" Naruto spun his sheath around so that the open part faced the lion, and his eyes started to glow a bright blue, "Lightning storm!" As soon as those words left his mouth, arcs of lightning flowed out of it and ran across the ground, before spiking into the air in a crisscross manner, while heading toward the lion at impressive speed.

The lion roared again, and then disappeared in a great show of speed. It dashed toward Naruto with a roar, but he just smiled. "As I thought." Naruto stepped on an arc of lightning, and then burst toward the lion, while flickering in and out of its view. He appeared to the left of it, and when it clawed at him, he disappeared and suddenly slashed the lion on its left side. After that Naruto went straight for the still laughing Victor, catching him slightly off guard, and slashing the man across the chest in the process, which made blood rush out of the wound and onto Naruto's sword.

He then disappeared and reappeared where he first stood, while smirking. When the massive lion saw him and ran at him, he just pointed the tip of his sheath at it, "Leo, meet my Leo." His sword pulsed with orange energy and then a massive stream of orange energy flew out of the sheath which formed a massive lion. Naruto's eyes glowed another bright blue as he spun his sheath around again, and poured even more lightning energy into the arcs on the ground. The arcs pulsed, and shot out more spikes, which stabbed into Victors' Leo, and then his own Leo rushed at it and bit into its neck.

Victors' Leo roared in pain, and tried to wrestle itself free from the attacks, but lightning spikes kept piercing its body and the other Leo would not let go of it. Victor watched with wide eyes as his partner was systematically destroyed in front of his eyes, "Damn you, Naruto!" He ripped his broadsword out of the ground and dashed toward Naruto, with his broadsword ready to rip Naruto apart.

Naruto's eyes dashed around, taking in Victors' movements, and when it gave off a blue hue he stepped on a lightning arc and disappeared. Naruto immediately appeared behind Victor and slashed at him, and when the man blocked his slash, Naruto pointed his sheath at him and countless claws shot out of it and tore into him.

Victor was sent crashing across the ground, and barreled into his almost dead partner. Naruto gripped his aching chest and just grit his teeth, "Time to finish this." He smeared two of his blood-soaked fingers across his sword, and it gave off a golden glow this time. "Time to die, Victor Angel!"

Victor smirked when he could feel Leo behind him, and then he touched the pendant hanging around his neck, "Next time, Naruto the chosen one." A golden light shot out of the sky and enveloped Victor and his lion, when it disappeared they were gone.

Naruto blinked in surprise, and his sword abruptly stopped glowing, "He ran away? What the hell?" As soon as he finished speaking, both his sword and sheath disappeared, and the pain from his chest greatly increased as a result. "Damn you… Ruin." He clutched at his chest, and sunk down to one knee in the process.

"Naruto! …*gasp* I came *gasp* as soon *gasp* as I could!"

Naruto turned his head in the direction of the voice, and saw a very pale and exhausted Tojiro swaying toward him. "Tojiro, what happened to you?"

Tojiro wiped the sweat from his brow and basically collapsed beside Naruto, "The sun man, I can't take anymore *gasp*" He crawled into Naruto's shadow and sighed in relief, "I was in such a hurry after Samael called me, that I forgot to take a cloak!"

Naruto winced in pain as he stood up, and then gave Tojiro a deadpan look, "Wow, you're pathetic man." He extended his hand toward Tojiro, and then smiled, "Thanks for coming though."

Tojiro took his hand, and then leaned on him for support when they started walking, "By the way, I saw that cute devil you've been with… huh, huh." He smirked at Naruto, and wiggled his eyebrows in a suggestive manner, "She was so worried about you, dude… but don't worry, I sent her home."

Naruto sighed as he listened to Tojiro, and considered just dropping him and walking away, but decided not to. "Look, I hope you didn't talk to her like this man, it will just scare her off."

"Hey, who do you think I am? Of course I acted normal around her!"

"Naru-chan~!"

Naruto sighed yet again, when he heard Hinan calling out to him, and then saw her waving at him while sitting on a destroyed building while casually swinging her feet. "Hey, sensei."

Hinan suddenly appeared in front of Naruto and started to poke his wound, making him wince in the process. "Oooo~! That sure looks nasty, wonder if it will leave a scar! Any~way, so I saw most of the fight and I must say~ I'm curious how you stole that guys techniques!" She gasped dramatically and looked at Naruto with fear in her eyes, "Did you steal mine as well! *gasp* how dare you?! …just kidding, Fufufu, it's ok if you steal mine."

Naruto glared at Hinan, "Please tell me you weren't casually watching my fight, while deciding not to help me!"

"Well~…" Hinan gave Naruto an innocent smile and said, "You see, I sensed the energy going off close to you, and came to see what happened. Then I heard you tell that girl that this is your fight, soooo~ I thought I'd see what happens. And here we are!" She clapped her hands with a bright smile, as if she just saw a performance she liked.

"You're supposed to be my sensei, and that means helping me out from time to time!"

Hinan silenced Naruto by putting a finger over his lips, "Shhh… and just enjoy the feeling of victory. Now come on! My daughter will patch you up!" With that said, she created a vortex and stepped through it.

"She has a daughter?"

Tojiro gave him a weak nod, "Yeah, but I've never met her though. Hope she's as hot as her mother, and not such a tease… maybe I'll have a shot."

Naruto walked toward the vortex and nodded in agreement, "Yeah, may the best man win."

END

AN: So, like a day after I posted the third chap I read someone's stat sheet(this person will remain nameless) and let's just say it left a bad taste in my mouth, which led to me basically not feeling like writing Naruto fics anymore.

However, I'm over it and at least one good thing came from skimming through the first and last few chaps: I finally know why some people want Naruto to be more powerful than I make him, and then flame me(with a guest review of course) when I don't make him more powerful.

But Yo, this is a pretty long chap and it's been read over, so that's cool right? If you think so too, why not give this fic a follow, fav, and maybe even a review?
