Living Legacy of Lucifer Himself
Hello everyone and welcome back to another chapter! Still working on my Quintessential Quintuplets and Unsatisfactory Uzumaki chapter update. I had the other story I was updating which was, It Only Takes One, and now this story. I needed break from my Quintessential Quintuplet story since I was trying to think on how I wanted it to go.
With that said let's get to the reviews! I'm sure you guys are really interested in reading and seeing what some of you had to say, and my answers to them!

amavgupta0 chapter 1. Nov 7: so naruto was shown 14yrs of age and you said becky was 10yrs old but in the flashback she was shown 4-5yrs old along the other kids and naruto was already there and 8-9 yrs old but you said he was found at 10yrs old, bro really
SoP: Well! I did fix that! That was my fault for not realizing what I put their ages at!

MadKing chapter 1. Nov 7: Yeah screw some of the other reviews. Those are truly weak reason to not read this story. Single pairing or not, please continue. I love the set-up of the story and we simply do not have enough stories that provide good quality like this. I look forward to the action!
SoP: I thought the single pairing might be nice, so I figured giving another pairing to also focus on! I think it'll be interesting to actually dive into some custom characters.

Gwentor chapter 1. Nov 7: If he is OC name Naruto why do you have crossover with Naruto and Naruto Uzumaki as first character name when he is only OC?
SoP: So, yeah even here Naruto's last name is still Uzumaki, and a lot of people thought this would still be the classic chakra using Naruto. No, this isn't, this Naruto is completely different from our original Naruto.

Last Chapter
Naruto looked at Mason and shouted, "STAY WITH ME! MASON! MASON! DON'T!" Naruto watched as Mason took his last breath. Naruto relaxed his arms as he sat back on his knees, "N-No… I-I…" Naruto slowly stood up and turned to the left. Naruto took a couple of steps away from Mason; he couldn't look at him. Though this couldn't stop Naruto from looking to the right and saw that they both had a smile on their faces, "I-I'm sorry… I'm so sorry you two…" Naruto felt his heart hurt as he fell to his knees and hands on the ground. Naruto balled his open hands into a fist. Naruto raised both his fists into the air, and his eyes turned from blue to green once again. Naruto slammed both fists into the ground, "DAMMIT!" Naruto slammed them into the ground causing a large crack in the concrete. Naruto raised them again into the air, "DAMMIT ALL!" Naruto then slammed his fists into the ground.
At the same time, Naruto slammed his fist into the ground, and the piece of paper Rias gave to him flew out of his pocket. A large red circle appeared, and Rias appeared from it. Rias looked to her left to see Mason laying lifelessly. Rias frowned; she couldn't believe she let this happen under her watch. Rias was summoned since she could feel his heart was in need. Rias looked to the right and what shocked her surprised her. Naruto had six pairs of white angelic wings coming out from his back. Yet, he had no halo, and she could sense both demonic and angelic power within him. Then Rias looked left and right and asked, "W-Where is Kaori?"

This Chapter
Naruto looked down at the group as he felt his anger for failing to get there in time. Naruto stood up and turned around as he saw Rias floating in the air. Naruto looked at her and asked, "Rias… what the hell is going on? What… are these wings?" Naruto turned his body left and right while keeping his head still so he could see his wings. Naruto then quickly turned his attention to Raynare and Kaori, "Wait… we need to go get Kaori! We need to save her! For Mason!" Naruto focused on his wings to allow himself to take to the sky, "Come on! We need to-!"
Before Naruto knew it a hand had grabbed him which stopped him in his tracks. Naruto turned to Rias as she gently took his right hand with both of hers, "Naruto…we need to stop for a moment. We need to get Mason back to the Occult Research Club. I can save him." Just then from the side Rias, Koneko, and Kiba appeared from another magic circle. Koneko walked over and gently picked up Mason's corpse. Rias turned to them, "Kiba and Akeno, send your familiars out, and have them search Kuoh to see if we can track Kaori down." Rias turned to Naruto, "Come, I'll explain everything to you. If you go now, you'll get yourself and possibly Kaori killed, we need to retreat and rethink our strategy."
Naruto looked at Rias like she was crazy as a tear ran down his cheeks, "B-But… K-Kaori… w-we need to save her… we need to… *sob* s-save…" Naruto grew weak as his wings retracted into his back.
Rias simply pulled Naruto into a hug as she whispered to him, "Shhhh, shhhh, it's okay… we're here now. Everything will be alright… I promise you…" Rias held Naruto tightly as Naruto seemingly fell asleep. His face rested on Rias's chest, Rias looked towards everyone else and nodded her head. With that said, with Rias's orders, everyone went to go do as they were told. Rias took to the skies as she looked off into the distance as her eyes narrowed. She then continued on her way as she whispered, "We will save her… we will revive Mason, but it will be at a cost. I hope you won't despise me, along with Mason. So, I will apologize in advance… I am sorry." Naruto who recently slowly fell asleep hearing Rias's words. Even if they were words that he didn't want to hear. It seems Rias may be trustworthy, Rias could only hope that Naruto and Mason didn't despise her.

*ORC Hour Later*
Naruto slowly opened his eyes and he found himself in a room with a bed. Naruto sat up and swung his legs over the bed and rubbed his head. Naruto looked at himself and found himself naked, "Why am I? Questions for later." Naruto stood up and found his clothes, he walked over and put them on. He then made his way toward the door and opened it. Naruto walked in and found Mason standing in front of a table, "I see… so any word on where Kaori is?"
Naruto looked at Mason and shouted, "M-Mason?! How the hell are you alive?!" Naruto stammered out in shock, but suddenly he placed his arms up, "Y-You aren't a ghost, are you?!" Naruto was ready to fight if he had to.
Mason looked to Naruto confused and pointed to himself, "Uhhh ghost? No… devil I am now." Mason chuckled a bit as he rubbed the back of his head.
Naruto looked at Rias who saw on her desk while everyone else was seated on the couch, "So… an explanation then? Because this entire thing is completely new to me."
Rias looked at Naruto interestedly, "Naruto… like I told Mason, we are devils and I reincarnated him into my peerage. The reason he was targeted was because of a sacred gear he possesses." Rias gestured for Mason to show it to Naruto.
Mason smirked and said, "Check this out!" Mason closed his eyes and opened them once again, "These are the Eyes of Psychopomp. My version is based on Water, there are other elements too!" Mason's eyes glow green when his eyes are activated.
"Okay… so? Why… why is this all happening? They said it was because of these Sacred Gears?" Naruto looked at Rias worried, very worried for Kaori since they kidnapped her.
Rias sat up straight and crossed her legs over one another. She looked at Naruto and sighed, Rias went ahead and explained everything about the three major factions. Along with the long war they had against one another for so long. The fact that the fallen angels wanted Kaori was probably to take whatever sacred gear she had. Mason looked at Rias worried, "So… what happens if they take her sacred gear?"
Everyone grew quiet and Koneko simply said, "It's simple… if a sacred gear is removed from a human's body… they die."
Mason's eyes grew serious, he was already worried, but he hoped that he could do something to save her! Mason looked to Akeno and Kiba, "Did you guys find where they went yet? Do you have any idea?!"
The two simply shook their heads, and Naruto had to ask, "So… this devil life… peerages and all that… how does this work? Why? Why us? Did you only become friends with us for this reason?"
Mason looked to Naruto and smiled, "Rias already explained it… truly I don't care, as long as I get Kaori back. Being given a second chance to me is worth it, even if it meant I sold my soul to the literal devil." Mason let a chuckle out as he placed a hand behind his head, "I ended up taking three pawn pieces, seems like I'm the fodder part of this group."
Naruto didn't understand everything that was happening, "Okay, first of all, Mason that's not how chess works, pawns can be just as stronger as a queen." Naruto then turned to Rias, "So… what everyone here is a devil, and they represent different chess pieces? Why us? Why specifically chose us?"
Rias shook her head and frowned, "I'll be truthful and brutally honest, originally it was for Mason and Kaori." Rias closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "I recognized how close you were with them, regardless of how you see it. I was going to see if they wanted to join my peerage or not. Mainly because, they have this sacred gear, they don't have much of a choice in this world. Trying to live a normal life would be very hard without the backing of some faction. Otherwise, the other factions will try to steal or perhaps use them for their use."
Akeno added in, "Other devils are also not as nice as Rias is, she gave you a chance, and sometimes other devils will force you to join. Whether it's holding your family hostage or forcing you to reincarnate after you died." Akeno gave them a solemn look, "Not all reincarnated devils get that chance to be in a peerage where the master is so kind."
Naruto looked at it and understood the picture, "What happened if they awoke their sacred gear?"
Koneko who was eating some sweets closed her eyes and said, "Simple, you're forced to, or it's taken from you before you awaken it. It's simply unavoidable in this world. You're forced to join a side."
"At least here you're given a chance." Kiba gave Naruto a gentle smile, they didn't want to seem incriminating or anything like that, "It's just how this world is, this is what we do to survive, and Rias is trying to give you life. You'll have the protection of the House of Gremory in the Underworld."
Naruto was hesitant and he said, "But… I'm an angel, right? With my two six pairs of wings on my back, right?"
Rias shook her head and she said, "In all honesty, I'm surprised heaven hasn't found you out and sought you out." Rias frowned and said, "If you were to side with them, you will be our enemy, there could raise a lot of tension between us. In all honesty, I had no idea you were an angel. I wonder if your special heritage helped keep you a secret... because after all, you're a Nephilim."
"A cross between a human and an angel, quite a powerful combination. Though I am rather curious, you do not have a halo, nor have you fallen." Rias added as she placed a hand under her chin, "I wonder why you so happen to awaken your powers; you already have twelve wings. Technically angels only go up in power depending on the number of wings they have." Rias got off the desk and extended her hand out to Naruto, "I will offer you a choice Naruto, join our club and my peerage. I promise to treat you well, I see everyone in my peerage as family. As long as you come when I call, you are free to do as you wish with your life. As long as you don't step out of line that is."
Naruto raised an eyebrow and ask, "What specifically is stepping out of line?"
"Simply, conversing with the enemy behind my back, going rouge. Going into enemy territory without authorization. There's a lot to it, but when it comes to you and your life. You have the right to marry whom you want, raise in the ranks of the devils. Once you become a high-ranking noble devil yourself. Well… you can even get your peerage of your own if you'd like."
Naruto shook his head and said, "I just want a simple life, I just want to be a neurosurgeon to help out a friend. I want to be there for my brother and sisters, how long do angels live?"
Akeno added, "As long as devils, devils, and angels live almost forever. Meaning you will outlive your family, even if you didn't become a devil." Akeno looked at Naruto with an almost sorry expression, it would hurt to know he was going far outlive his family.
Naruto's eyes widen in shock when he heard that, he looked down rather upset at hearing that. Naruto rubbed the back of his head; he was hoping to always be there for his family until it was his time to go. At least for Uzuki, Satsuki, Nash, Kotori, and Becky, he was hoping they would at least outlive him. Though it seemed that wasn't the case anymore since he was already part angel, "So… if I decide to not join you guys?"
"Simple, we are neutral, we aren't your friend or ally. I won't stop Kaori and Mason from hanging out with you." Naruto watched as Rias placed her right hand over her chest and said, "I also like to continue being friends too, so I wouldn't like to stop our friendship. You're a down-to-earth person Naruto, you have a good heart. You have a strict goal set in stone for yourself. I promised I'd stick by your side for that. That I can guarantee you isn't a lie. I don't break my promises either."
Naruto could tell from Rias's voice she was quite sincere and earnest with her words. Naruto closed his left eye looking at Rias as he rubbed the back of his head. Naruto then closed both eyes and gave it some serious thought. Naruto bobbed his head up and down and he walked up to Naruto. Naruto opened his right eye, "Just a fair warning, I do not take kindly to those who tell me what to do. Even if they are of a higher class and position than I am. I have a… better word lack of respect for those who don't deserve it."
"Then that's just something we'll work on." Rias winked at him, she didn't mind it, but she can't have him disrespect the Four Devil kings.
"I also tend towards using my fists if I have to. Meaning if someone seriously pisses me off, I will punch them." Naruto added as he stuck his hand out to shake Rias's to seal the deal.
"We'll make sure the reason you do it, is justified." Rias retorted back as a vein pulse appeared on her forehead. Rias did her best to keep the smile on her face.
"I'll also probably end up giving people I hate nicknames, like cherry top or big red." Naruto smirked as he let Rias accept his handshake, and the two shook on it.
Rias sighed as she closed both eyes and a tick mark appeared on her forehead, "Now, I felt like that was directed toward me!"
Naruto shook his head and said, "It's directed towards anyone besides you who have red hair in your family." Naruto placed his finger on his lip and smirked saying, "Though I have to admit you do have a nice figure and a rack." This only made Rias freeze when she heard Naruto say that to her.
Koneko simply stared at Naruto with an impassive look on her face, "Lecher, so the rumors are true."
"W-what?!" Rias looked at Naruto with a rather dumbfounded look on her face.
Naruto chuckled and laughed as he tightened his handshake and said, "Well everybody better get the hell outta hell. Because shit's about to get real hot in here because Naruto Uzumaki is in the house!" Naruto smirked as he pointed his left thumb at himself.
"That was on purpose, wasn't it?" Koneko said again with an impassive look on his face.
Naruto let go of Rias's hand and turned to Koneko and said, "The getting out of hell part? As well is it getting too hot? No that wasn't." Naruto turned to Rias and then asked, "So, where do I sign up?"
Rias simply sighed as she summoned her evil pieces into her hand. She had a rook, a knight, six pawns, and two bishops left, "All I have to do is use these to reincarnate you."
Naruto scratched his head and looked at the pieces confused. Koneko then said, "What, do you not know what those are, stupid? They're called chest pieces."
Naruto looked at Koneko and gave her a dry remark, "Oh really?! Because I had no fucking idea they were!" Naruto gave her a sarcastic remark which only irked the tiny white-haired Nekoshou even more. Naruto placed his left hand over his chest, "Sorry, but this is grownup talk." Naruto squeezed his left pectoral muscle, "Once you grow enough then you can join the grownups." Naruto shot back which made Koneko look at Naruto ready to kill him.
"Rias-Buchou… can I beat him to an inch of his life? Then you can revive him?" Koneko raised her fist ready to pummel Naruto.
Akeno giggled at Naruto's and Koneko's personalities clashing, "Ara-ara how funny the way this is turning out."
Naruto turned to Akeno and said, "Don't worry your sweet little ass tits-Magee, you're next on my hit list." Akeno simply sat there with a rather complacent look on her face.
Rias then chopped him over the head, "Down boy, that's enough poking fun at my peerage."
Naruto rolled his eyes and smirked, "Well at least if I'm going to do this, let's get the white chalk, rodent bones, and sage. Oh, we'll need a bowl as well, I want this to be authentic! A real devil summoning circle and all that jazz!"
Rias had a sweat drop appear on her forehead and Mason chuckled as he placed his hands on his hip, "Well this is Naruto Uzumaki for ya if he's going to do something. He is going to do it to the best of his abilities, he doesn't play games when it comes to the serious stuff. Though I wonder where he gets all the money for this."
Before Naruto left the room Rias grabbed his hand. "Naruto! Wait! Ugh jeez, what am I getting myself into." Rias placed her free hand on her forehead.
Naruto came back with a smirk on his face, "You're getting the full package that is Uzumaki Naruto! You bet your cute little devil ass I'm going to come in ready and rearing to go! With my devil horns and pitchfork at the ready! Oh! Don't forget that sweet, sweet awesome mustache I'm going to rock."
Naruto gently got out of Rias's hold as he left through the doors. Kiba chuckled as he said, "Well we certainly have an interesting new member, don't you guys think?"
"Interesting is an overstatement, he's already annoying and makes me want to gag every time he breathes." Koneko took a bite out of another cookie and said, "He should return to whatever hell humans call an orphanage."
"Koneko that's a bit much don't you think?" Rias gave Koneko a sweat-drop smile, she was not getting how Koneko and Naruto butt heads, but also got along.
Koneko gave it some thought and then shook her head, "No the dumb blond deserves it, serves him right for calling me a child."
Mason then pipped up and said, "I mean… you are kinda one, you're only in middle school…" Mason then stopped talking when Koneko gave him the stink eye.
Naruto soon came back with a bowl, sage, a pair of clip-on devil horns, a clip-on forked tail, a pitchfork, and a taped mustache on his upper lip, "Rias I am ready to become a devil!"
Everyone stared at Naruto in confusion and Mason asked, "Where the hell did you get time to get all that?"
"Don't worry about it, let's get this thing started!" Naruto smirked as he got his stuff ready, but Koneko let out an 'Skkrmp' while looking at him. Naruto looked at her and glared at her, "What?! Ya got something to say, say it, little runt!"
Koneko stopped her stifled laughter and retorted, "You heard me, or is your stupid brain incapable of comprehending the phonetics that are coming out of my mouth? Oh wait, that's probably too big of a word for you. Let me dumb it down for you, speech patterns you moron."
"Flat board!"
"Degenerate!"
"Emotionless Doll!"
"Scarface!"
"Enough!" Rias got in between the two with an annoyed look on her face, she glared at Koneko. Koneko simply turned away going back to eating her sweets. Rias then looked to Naruto, "Come on? Picking a fight with-."
"Not a fight… fun bickering between two people." Naruto took a deep breath and let it out with a smile on his face, "Her seriousness reminded me a lot of Izumi-Kaa-chan, she's good with the comebacks." Naruto leaned closer to Rias while whispering, and knowing he is doing a horrible job at it, "I think she's beginning to like me, I'm sure I'll grow on her."
Rias just shook her head, "Just… try not to make this a habit, for now, let's get to the reincarnation, shall we?" Rias walked up to Naruto; thinking this time he took off all the excess devil things. It was all gone, as if it was never there, so she is not going to bring that up, "Alright… let's see which pieces suit your best." Rias held up a bishop, which began to glow slightly. She held a rook up which had a brighter glow. Rias then brought forth her pawns, and to her surprise, the remaining six pawns all began to glow, red, a rather bright shade of red.
The pawn pieces floated out in front of Naruto as the Gremory family crest appeared behind Naruto. Rias had her hands out to the side as she chanted, "I, Rias Gremory, hereby order you: Heed me, Naruto Uzumaki. I ask you to live by my side forever, as my devil servant. You shall become my vanguard. Rejoice in your newfound life, now serve me, and I shall do the same for you."
The six pawn pieces turned from red to white, two pawn pieces turned into a bishop, two rooks, and two knights. They each had six angel wings appear on the back of the piece, everyone watched in fascination. Rias had no words for what she was seeing, and Naruto was standing there with his eyes closed. Rias then suddenly found it rather taxing as she began to sweat, she said the incantation right. However, before she realized it, she was required to pour in a lot more magical power than necessary.
Then again, Naruto had six pairs of Angel wings. But then again it didn't seem to correlate to his magic power completely.
After a bit longer Rias finally finished as she fell to one knee. Naruto opened his eyes and saw Rias about to pass out, he quickly made his way next to her. Naruto helped her up onto her feet as she leaned onto him. Akeno looked at the two rather curiously as Naruto looked at her, "You put a lot of magic into that." Naruto looked to Akeno, "Let me guess, she only resurrect someone based on their magic power, right?"
Akeno nodded her head, "It looks like it was successful, but never have I heard it draining the master to become lethargic." Akeno placed a finger on her lip, "Usually if the person is too powerful… the ritual doesn't work."
Naruto took Rias into his arms and carefully picked her up. He went over to the other couch opposite Koneko and Kiba and laid her there. Naruto closed his eyes and felt throughout his body, he could tell his magical power had increased drastically. Naruto extended out his wings, but it surprised everyone in the room. Naruto still had his twelve angelic wings and along with them, twelve devil wings as well.
Akeno looked at Naruto in shock and said, "Wait… that's impossible how do you have twelve devil wings? Unless…"
Naruto looked to Akeno who seemed to be in thought, "Is there something I should know?"
Akeno shook her head, "No, right now it's not important. We have other matters to attend to." Akeno turned to Rias who slowly began to sit up.
Naruto looked at Rias concerned, "Hey are you sure you're alright? I mean you passed out after you reincarnated me."
Rias's eyes slowly began to focus, and she saw Naruto looking at her with a worried look on his face. Rias slowly sat up and saw his twelve angel and devil wings, "N-Naruto… your wings?" Rias looked at her newest servant with a rather shocked look on her face, "That should be impossible… unless you're related to a Lucifer."
"Lucifer? Like the arc angel Lucifer?" Naruto looked at her curiously.
Rias nodded her head, "Descendants of the very first Lucifer that Lucifer the Angel God created at the beginning of time. The one who created the first devils… whom he also created the 72 pillars of the underworld…" Rias was wondering just who Naruto's birth parents could be, "Could… no that's not possible… then again Lucifer's body was never found during the war. I'll have to talk to Onii-sama about this, this could be huge if true." "I have to say, it took a lot out of me to reincarnate you. How do you feel?"
Naruto felt both holy and demonic power within himself, "I-I feel stronger than I did before… though I do feel a little weird."
Koneko's ears perked up as her nose detected something from Naruto, "Rias-Buchou… Naruto-senpai… smells funny, he smells like an angel… but something else."
Koneko gestured for Rias to come to her, which she did, and leaned down as Koneko whispered something into her ear. Rias's eyes widen as she looked at Naruto, "Naruto… I want you to focus on the strongest part of your body. Whatever you think is the strongest part of your body is."
Naruto tried to feel around, wherever he felt strongest on his body. Naruto looked at his right arm and focused on it. A few moments pass, but Naruto couldn't feel anything, "I don't know… but for right now we should worry about Kaori. What's the move?"
"Yeah, I'm a little anxious to go save her. I'm sure we can find them." Mason added quickly to Naruto's comment.
Rias nodded her head and Akeno spoke up, "Not too long ago, my familiar came back, they found a large group of humans gathered around a church by the outskirts of Kuoh. Though it seems to be abandoned. The question is, is it our right to involve ourselves?"
Mason looked at Akeno rather annoyed, "What do you mean right to get involved?! Kaori is! Is! She's, my girlfriend! I'll be damned if I leave her behind!"
"She's my friend too, what do you mean within our right?" Naruto added showing his displeasure at what Akeno said.
Kiba stood up from the couch and said, "You have to remember, the fallen angels are part of a faction. We don't know if it was a command by their leader, and in truth, they found you guys before we did. Meaning, if it was a sanctioned mission, we cannot interfere without causing another war."
Just then a tiny bat came flying through the window. It landed on Rias's shoulder, and it whispered into Rias's ear. Rias smiled as she turned to Mason and Naruto, "Well it seems the luck of the Maous must be on your side." Rias placed her hands on her hips, "Akeno prepare a teleportation circle, we'll get as close as we can. We'll formulate a strategy first to save Kaori, it seems these are some rogue Fallen. They are acting outside of the jurisdiction of their leader."
Koneko stood up and punched her fist into her hand, "It sounds like some Fallen Angels need to be pummeled."
"Wait… I have no idea how to attack!" Mason blurted out as he looked towards Rias for help.
Naruto scratched his cheek, "Yeah… when I attack I did it on instinct… I just got really angry."
Rias and Akeno sighed; well, it was a better time than never to give them a quick rundown on using magic. They'll have to help them work on their magic control later.

*Abandon Church Two Hours Later 9:00 pm*
Naruto and Mason were given a quick crash course on how to use magic. Thankfully, Akeno was able to give Mason a quick rundown on how to use water magic. Naruto picked it up quite easily and was able to form a light spear. Once they were all set, they headed off to go save Kaori before it was too late.
Naruto found himself outside with Akeno and Rias while Kiba, Mason, and Koneko went through the front of the church. Naruto asked, "Wait… so why are we out here? Not with Mason, Koneko, and Kiba?"
"If our sources are right, the Fallen Angels will be out here. They'll guard the rear, I'm sure we can handle them. I also want to see just how strong you are Naruto." Rias turned her head towards the forest, It's important to see where you stand, I can step in when I see fit. I know your record of fights you've gotten into."
Naruto chuckled as he rubbed the back of his head, "Well they deserved it ya know? Picking on kids isn't cool, so I gave them what they deserved!"
"Ara, ara sounds like a delinquent to me. Though, I do wonder how much pain they were in after you beat them~?" Akeno's eyes seem to have glazed over as Naruto looked at her a little freaked out, "Woah… is she some sort of masochist?"
Just then there was a call from above, "Hey! There you are you little shit!" Everyone looked up to see Dohnaseek and Kalwarner glaring daggers at Naruto. Dohnaseek seemed to have been bandaged up, he held his hand out as a light spear formed in his hands, "I'm going to make you pay for what you did to me back there!" He lunged at Naruto.
Naruto jumped forward and did what he did in any other fight. Naruto dodged to the right of Dohnaseek's stab, then Naruto presumably brought his left knee up.
…
Dohnaseek's eyes widen as he fell to his knees, Rias and Kalwarner both let out an 'Ooo' because Naruto's knee met Dohnaseek's crotch. Akeno simply smirked at the sight as she saw Naruto kick Dohnaseek in the family jewels. Naruto growled out, "This is what you get! For threatening my family! Asshole!" Naruto grabbed Dohnaseek's face, and Naruto remembered back to his anger toward him before. Naruto's eyes shifted to green as his twelve devil wings and angel wings came from his back. Naruto's face slammed him into the ground and Naruto conjured up some demonic power.
Rias's eyes were wide along with Akeno as Naruto summoned up white and black demonic energy. Naruto then proceeded to surround Dohnaseek with his ability as he proceeded to destroy him completely. Kalwarner's eyes widen as she said, "T-That was… the same ability he used to kill Mittelt! Die!" Kalwarner threw a light spear at Naruto. Kalwarner didn't know why Naruto had angel wings and devil wings. This was all completely crazy!
Naruto looked up as he grabbed the spear in midair and spun around with the spear's momentum and threw it to the ground. Naruto crushed the spear with his hand, and he summoned his spear of light, "You aren't getting away either!" Naruto conjured up the power of destruction again, his light spear was the color white, and the spear had a white and black flame glow to it. Kalwarner's eyes widen in fear as the spear flew in her direction. She barely dodged it, but then Naruto appeared behind her. Kalwarner's eyes widen as she saw Naruto, but Naruto kicked her into the back.
This sent her flying to the ground in front of Rias and Akeno. Naruto landed on the ground as Kalwarner slowly picked herself up. Kalwarner turned her head towards Naruto as Naruto came walking from the shadows of the night. Before Naruto stepped into the moonlight, "S-Stay! Stay away from me!" Kalwarner began to back up, but she hit Akeno and Rias. Kalwarner looked up and said, "P-Please! Don't let me die here! I don't want to die!"
"You signed your death warrant when you and your friends threatened my family and friends. Laughing at me that I wouldn't be able to save them!" Naruto came walking out from the moonlight as a glow came from his right fist. Rias's eyes focused on Naruto's right arm, "Well look who's laughing at who." Naruto had a grin appear on his face.
Kalwarner fell to her knees and began to prostrate herself for Naruto, "Please! Mercy! Have mercy!"
Naruto walked up as a ball of Destruction magic appeared in his right hand, "Sorry… all out of mercy." Naruto then fired it at Kalwarner as it destroyed her, and the only thing that was left was her leftover feathers. Naruto stared at the ground where Kalwarner was no more, "Tch." Naruto turned his head away as he felt the tears well up, "There… no one will hurt get hurt." Naruto tightened his fist as he then hunched over and threw up.
Rias quickly came to his side as she patted his back. She then used some healing magic to help ease the sickness he felt, "It's okay… I'm proud of what you did, even if it wasn't easy."
Naruto just looked down; he wiped his mouth. Rias then pulled him into a gentle hug, "I appreciate it… I just… didn't want them to hurt… everyone back in the Orphanage…" Naruto couldn't even think what could have happened if he didn't stop them. They could have easily done what they said, and he couldn't let that happen."
Rias gently ran her hand through Naruto's hair, "I understand, it's scary, but I can promise you this. I can have that orphanage put under the protection of the Gremory Family if they try to lay a finger on them. I'll bring the might of the Gremory Family onto whoever dared such a thing."
Naruto looked up to Rias who hugged him close and smiled back at her, "Thank you! Thank you so much!" Naruto hugged Rias back thankful for her willingness to help him, maybe it wasn't so bad to join her in the peerage. Even if he decided to give serve someone, it was for a good reason.
Rias then held up his right hand, she inspected the sacred gear on Naruto's hand, "I wonder if your angel side kept this hidden… well what do you know." Rias looked at the sacred gear, it had a dragon-like gauntlet that covers up Naruto's hand and the majority of his arm; it also had two spikes coming out of it with a green jewel at the top of the hand, "What do you know… the Crimson Haired Ruin Princess and the Red Dragon Emperor. We couldn't possibly be matched any better, what do you think?"
Naruto chuckled as he said, "Ahaha… orange would have been cooler." Which Rias simply rolled her eyes at.
Akeno giggled, "You two go check on everyone else, I'll clean up here. I think the forest was molting."

*Inside of the Church*
Mason skidded backward after he dodged an attack from Raynare, "I'll make you wish you were dead you brat!"
Mason opened his mouth and puffed his chest out. He then moved his head forward and shouted Water Spirit Harangue! A large cone of water shout out of Mason's mouth which crashed into Raynare sending her into the wall of the church. Kaori, who was in white garbs, was being watched by Koneko who let Mason deal with the fallen angel.
Raynare slowly stood up angrily, "You'll pay for that you little brat! I'll kill you!" Raynare formed a light spear and through it at Kaori and Koneko.
Mason turned his head to look in their direction when he realized the spear wasn't directed toward him. Mason went to move, but he couldn't move fast enough. However, there was a loud, CLANG! Koneko was prepped to move Kaori out of the way. However, Naruto appeared as he swatted the attack away using the gauntlet on his arm, "Come on Mason! Finish the bitch!" Naruto called out as Rias came walking up next to him.
Rias smiled as she said, "You can do it, Mason! No Fallen Angel should be a match for my servant! A servant of the Gremory Family!"
Raynare looked at Rias in shock. "W-What?! What is-!" Raynare was cut off when Mason ran at her and threw a ball of water at her.
Mason called out, Promotion! Rook! Mason glower brightly as he rushed at Raynare when she dodged his attack. Mason swung his left fist around. He punched her square in the jaw. He then brought his left leg up and kicked her in the side which made her tumble to the side and hit a pew. Mason looked at the fallen angel on the ground, "You'll leave us alone! You don't ever bother us again! You hear me! You ever lay a finger on Kaori again! I won't be as merciful!"
Raynare slowly sat up as she felt her jaw hurt, it was broken, "A-Arghh! Y-oufh b-baturd! I'rll muk ya puh!"
Rias walked forward and stood in front of Rias, "In light of my servant's decision, you are to return to your master. If I ever see your face here again without permission… I'll wipe you from the face of the earth… you got that?" Rias glared at her as the power of destruction aura appeared around her, "You should be thankful, I'm not as merciful as he is."
Rias turned to Mason who was already by Kaori's side hugging her close to him. Kaori was blushing because she had no bra or panties on, "Oh! M-Mason! I uhh…" Akeno giggled watching the two hug one another as Mason held her close. Kaori wrapped her arms around him as she felt him shake and begin crying.
"I-I thought… I thought they were g-going to seriously h-harm you…" Mason felt the tears run down his cheeks, "I-I was weak! I-I'm s-so sorry I couldn't-!"
Mason was interrupted as Kaori gently slapped the side of his cheeks, "Mason… we had no idea what was going on. Not only that, but I'm also surprised you held your own, even after I saw how badly you were hurt. H-How did you survive?"
Rias then piped up and said, "We'll discuss more back in the club room." Rias turned back to Raynare, "Get on, leave, otherwise, I'll make sure to eliminate you."
Raynare quickly brought her wings out and took off out of the Church's window. Naruto watched as she left, and he turned to Mason and Kaori. Naruto looked at his right hand and released the power from his hand and the sacred gear disappeared.

*Club Room*
"Wait… so let me get this straight, you Mason did die… and you resurrected him as a devil?" Kaori looked over to Mason who chuckled as he rubbed the back of his head. Kaori looked a little upset as she looked at Rias, "So… he's like your servant now and everything right?" Rias nodded her head and Kaori looked a little angry. Naruto and Mason took a step back as Kaori looked at Rias and narrowed her eyes at her, "You aren't… like going to make him…" Kaori's face turned red as she scrunched her face up, "Ya know… take him as yours?"
Akeno's eyes widen a bit as she placed a hand over her mouth hiding her smile and muffling her laugh. Koneko just stared at Kaori with an impassive look, and Kiba just chuckled as he turned his head away from the scene. Rias was rather shocked by the sudden question and Mason looked at Kaori rather surprised. Naruto wasn't but then again, it was a little funny to see Kaori all worried. Rias shook her head, "N-No! No! I mean! That's something I won't do! I promise! Mason would be just another family member to me! Everyone who is in my peerage is my family! I promise I'll treat him well!"
Kaori let a relaxed sigh out as she placed her hands on her hips, "Okay then… but what is all this? Devils, angels, and fallen angels. They said they were going to take my sacred gear."
Rias being able to relax answered, "Well, from it sounds like you have a sacred gear that allows healing of some sort. As to what is it, I don't know."
"When an angel falls from grace, they lose the ability to self-heal. You must possess a sacred gear that allows such a thing." Akeno interjected as she looked to Kaori, "It only depends on when you awaken it."
"Sacred gears correspond to the user's feelings and emotions, the stronger they are. The stronger your sacred gear also becomes." Rias added as she looked at Naruto, and in which Naruto understood why his sacred gear awakened. It was probably because he got mad about what they had planned for his family back in the orphanage.
Just then Naruto heard a voice in his head, "Ah… is this thing on? Can you hear me?"
Just looked left and right when he heard the voice, "Huh? Who's there?" Everyone in the room stopped to look at Naruto in confusion.
"Your right arm." The deep ghostly voice said again as Naruto looked at his right arm, there was a circular green circle, "It's a pleasure to finally meet you, it was annoying trying to talk to you with your angel side suppressing me so much."
Naruto raised an eyebrow as everyone else looked at him like he was crazy, "Woah… so… you're this sacred gear thing?"
With that Naruto went into his little world while everyone else just stared at him confused. Akeno then says, "It's common for Naruto's sacred gear to communicate to him like that, it's mainly because the Red Dragon Emperor's soul is sealed within the dragon."
"Okay…" Kaori was still confused by this as she looked around, "So… this all this… explain what devils and all this, please? I'm so confused, does that mean you own Mason and his soul, or what? Can I not be with him or what? Because this is all of this is overwhelming!"
Mason then placed a hand on her shoulder trying to get her to calm down, "Kaori… just hold up for a moment here. I know it's a lot, and I was pulled into it, but I don't mind." Mason gently pulled her into a hug wrapping his arms around her, "I got a chance to save you… and you're safe now. I was so worried."
Koneko smiled at the two and said, "Aww how sweet."
"Ara, it seems Mason and Kaori seem to be head over heels for one another." Akeno said with a smile.
Kaori turned to Rias with her head now a bit calmer, than she was before. She'd be lying if she said she was very worried that Rias might try to take Mason away from her. Kaori looked at Naruto and asked, "Naruto, are both you and Mason devils now under Rias?"
Naruto nodded his head as he placed his hand on his hips, "I did it because… my family back in the orphanage were threatened. I don't know how…they knew about them, then again I wonder if information like that is just at the tips of their fingers." Naruto turned to Rias and gave her a small smile, "Rias guaranteed me that they would be safe, under the Gremory House protection. It was good enough for me to join, plus she brought Mason back, and went to go save you."
Rias nodded her head in thanks to Naruto's words, she turned to Kaori and said, "Though I would like to be truthful to you Kaori." Rias gained a serious look on her face, "I was going to eventually come to you and Mason about joining our club. In reality, we wanted to have you join us." Kaori's eyes widen a bit, but she let Rias continue which surprised Rias herself. She was half expecting Kaori to blow up on her, "Koneko here a bit special, she could smell sacred gears coming off of you guys. We wanted to offer you a place in my peerage, mainly because we could give you a chance to live happy lives."
Mason turned to Kaori and gently grabbed one of her hands, "It's the fact that another faction or devil peerage could have forced us to reincarnate into their family." Mason looked down as he close his eyes, "I think we got really lucky that Rias and her family are so caring about their peerage members. I don't want to think about the type of household I could have been forced into. Maybe even you if we couldn't have saved you…" Mason looked down and Kaori looked at him in worry, "I don't regret it, I'm glad that Rias gave me that second chance. I got to save you." Mason leaned in and gently placed a kiss on her cheek, "She isn't making me do this, this is from my heart. They can protect us from people who would want to do wrong to us. Rias is only trying to do us right."
Rias then said, "Please don't forget Mason, in the beginning, I planned on using Naruto to get to you two." Rias closed her eyes as she placed them on her hips, but she slowly opened them, "But I just so happen to get to known Naruto." Rias's smile was genuine, Akeno, Kiba, and Koneko noted this, "He turned out to be a great and wonderful person, he's funny and corny at times. However, he's a great person and the people who raised him well. Once I got to know him, I knew he had a spot in my peerage, with or without a sacred gear."
Kaori was glad Rias was honest with her, Rias didn't beat around the bush or try to weasel her way out. She came up and forward about the truth; Kaori placed a hand over her chest, "I appreciate your honesty, Rias. If what Mason and Naruto are saying is true, I can trust you, you've been honest with us up to even now… is there a spot for me in your peerage?"
Rias's eyes widen a bit, but then her eyes eased, and her smile brightened, "Of course! You're a friend Kaori! I'd love to have you aboard!"

Little Later
Kaori slowly opened her eyes as she sat up from the ritual. Kaori looked left and right and saw everyone looking at her rather strangely, "Mmm? Is something wrong?" Kaori went to rub her head but she touched something pointy, "Ow…what the… AHHHH! HORNS?!" Kaori looked up to see horns on the top of her head.
Naruto looked at her flabbergasted, "I-I'm just as surprised! We didn't have those when we reincarnated!"
Mason looked at Kaori rather shocked, but then again, he was also blushing. He had to admit, Kaori's horns looked good on her, even if they were fake, "Does it make you feel better that it suits you?"
Akeno placed a finger on her lower lip, "Well this is a problem, we can't have you seen with those in school?"
Kaori whined, "No way! I can't go home or school with these!" Kaori looked to Akeno or Rias, "Come on! Isn't there a way to get rid of them? Or at least hide them! I'll be a laughingstock!" Naruto, giggling, placed his hand over his mouth trying not to laugh. Kaori glared at him and said, "What's so funny?!"
"YOUR HORNS!" Naruto pointed at her and laughed while an anger mark appeared on her forehead.
"ARRGGG!" Kaori scratched her hands on both sides of her head as she leaned back annoyed, "I hate you sometimes Naruto!"
Mason walked over to Kaori and placed a hand on her head, "Don't worry so much Kaori, besides I think you look cute with them." Mason said without any hesitation which made Kaori instantly calm down, though not without a major blush appearing on her face. Mason then took the horn off without Kaori noticing. He placed them on the side while everyone tried to hold in their laughter.
Kaori looked at her hands and she began to fidget with her hands, she was a bit happy. Though, it was only because Mason thought she was cute with the horns. Naruto soon finished his laughing and said, "Well too bad the horns weren't real anyways, it is a shame, Mason thought they were cute. You would have been his little devil."
Kaori's eyes widen as she looked up and saw they were gone. She quickly turned to Naruto and glared at him, "You! You pranked me didn't you!" Kaori knew this was Naruto because this wasn't the first time, he pranked her. Kaori looked at Mason, "You! Why didn't you stop them!"
Kaori placed a finger on his chest, Mason put both hands up and get her a small laugh, "Well I'll be honest I was curious what you'd look like with horns. So, that's why I didn't stop them… eye candy I guess?"
Kaori's face turned red again as she puffed her cheeks out and crossed her arms over her chest, "Mason, I'm going home!" Kaori went to leave, but before she did. She turned to Rias, "Oh… umm thanks again for allowing me to join." Kaori turned to everyone else, "Also, thank you all as well for coming to rescue me. I appreciate it!" Kaori then walked out the door.
Mason waved to everyone, "Yeah! Tons of thanks, everyone! We'll see you guys tomorrow at school!"
Akeno giggled as she said, "Aren't those two just adorable, I'm going to have fun teasing them to no end."
Rias interjected, "Akeno, they just joined, let them get accustomed to us first. Besides, I don't think Kaori is the sharer type anyways." Rias turned to Naruto and smiled, "So, happy with everything tonight so far?"
Naruto nodded his head as he turned to the windows, "So… how does this work then? You know… protecting my family?"
Rias smiled as she shook her head, she wasn't surprised really. Naruto really cares for his family, "Don't worry, I've already sent word to my Onii-sama. They'll be receiving… a nice renovation and extra finances for the foreseeable future."
Naruto was taken aback by the amount of help she was willing to offer, "Wow?! All that?! T-That's the most I could ever ask for them!" Naruto quickly made his way to Rias and hugged her. Rias was surprised, Akeno could only smile, and Kiba and Koneko silently watched with a smile on their faces too, "Thank you!" Naruto wanted them to get better lives.
Rias was used to giving hugs to people, but the more she thinks about it. She's never actually received many hugs, it was nice. It was a nice change of pace.

Flashback Saturday Evening
"Wait… so let me get this straight… you don't plan on doing anything?" Naruto said on the phone, Naruto placed his hand on his forehead, "Kaori… you're kidding me, right? It's so obvious that you like him!"
Kaori let out a raspberry over the phone, "I'm going to wait on that last long as it takes if he isn't ready. I am in no way going to push it, more or less tell him how I feel. When it's time, it's time."
Naruto rolled his eyes, "Well hopefully Mason will feel confident enough to finally ask you two out. For the first three weeks of the school year, I've known you guys, it's clear you two get along very well."
Kaori while over the phone began to twirl a bit of her hair around a finger, "W-Well… I mean… it's not like we don't get along. I mean…I'm a lot, I bring a lot of baggage that you and Mason don't know about me…"
Naruto let a low sigh out and smiled over the phone, "For as good friends as you tell me you and Mason are. I highly doubt Mason is going to like you any less for whatever baggage you bring. We all do Kaori, don't pull yourself down so much, allow yourself to be happy."

End of Flashback *With Naruto*
Naruto said his goodbyes and thanked once again to Rias and everyone else. Naruto made his way back home, however on his way back Naruto found someone on the side of a fence. Naruto walked over to her, she had a dirty and tattered pink colored cape which has two brown buttons that allow it to fully close around her small body. The girl has long, silver hair that extends below her waist and reaches almost the bottom of her legs. Her forehead is covered by bangs of uneven hair, and she has a small nose and a small mouth. The girl wore a white-grayish blindfold that covered her eyes.
Naruto knelt to her as the girl held up a cup to him, "Please sir or ma'am can you spare some money?"
Naruto was curious, "Little girl… what happened to your eyes?"
The girl lowered her blinds, Naruto could see the scratches on the covering over her cornea. He could see the slight tint of red in her eyes. However, it was cloudy, "Well, my mommy said she didn't like my eyes. So, I poured lead over them, so she didn't have to see them anymore. She left me out here, I don't know why." The girl lifted the cup higher, "Could I get some money please, sir?"
Naruto simply pulled the little girl into a hug, "I do, but I have something better than money. I have a home, family, a mother, and most importantly love." Naruto felt his tears roll down his cheeks, he wanted to help her. Naruto wrapped his arms around the girl and gently lifted her, "Do you trust me?"
The girl began to shake from the warm hug he gave her, "M-mister…y-you a-aren't k-kidding, are you?"
Naruto shook his head as he said to her, "No, never sweetie, I'd never lie to you. Come, let's go home." The girl began to cry into Naruto's chest as he held her close to his chest. It looks like Mrs. Curtis Orphanage were going to get a new family member.

A/N: Phew! That's it! Yes, this is the blind girl from Black Bullet, which I have yet to watch the anime. The anime seems to be a lot of pain, so I'll have to watch it now. Anyways, I hoped you all enjoyed this chapter! See you in the next one! Oh! Come up with a name for the girl! I'll go over names and I'll chose which one that would correspond with the girl the most. Whomever I chose, doesn't mean your option wasn't good. To me the name that I pick I feel just goes with the character. Anyways! Sage of Prophecy Out! Ja Ne!
