Another annoying trope... Mobs after the "demon child".

Here's a fun twist on that terrible trope.


Little Naruto is running down the street when he bumps into a villager.

"Ah! Sorry dattebayo-!"

"DON'T KILL ME!" The villager screamed, getting on his knees and bowing before Naruto, "Lord Demon-sama! I am so sorry!"

"Uh," Naruto tried, but a mob of villagers showed up.

"HEY! HE UPSET THE DEMON!"

"GET HIM!"

The poor man was dragged off and beaten to a pulp by the villagers as a confused Naruto watched.

"HEY! Stop that! It was an accident!" Naruto shouted.

The mob bowed before Naruto, prostrating themselves in the dirt before him.

"We're sorry Demon-sama!"

"Spare us!"

"Get him a sacrifice!"

"A virgin sacrifice!"

A very confused and frightened fourteen year old girl was tossed up to Naruto. She bowed as best she could.

"D-Demon-sama... What is it... You wish of me?" She whimpered.

Naruto blinked. His young mind thought of something and he smiled.

"Let's get ramen, Nee-chan! Then you can read me a story!"

"As you command, my Lord," she said.

"And hold my hand!" Naruto said cheerfully, and the girl did so. "Yay ramen!"

The mob all watched the demon brat go with the terrified girl, and sighed in relief.

"He'll remember this," the mob leader said, "he'll spare us when he's older."

"Do... Do you think we should have sacrificed some goats, too?" Asked another villager.

There was a great deal of murmuring and consideration among the mob members. They came to a conclusion:

"Couldn't hurt."


Short but I couldn't help getting to the point quickly.
