IMPORTANT: I made a poll for Naruto of the 458th Universe, NOT FIREBRAND. This is VERY important. Mainly it's whether Naruto gets it on with a few before settling down for one (main) girl or the same thing without the getting it on part. As teens/men, we tend to either fool around with other girls like a bachelor or stay single and finally find that one special person.

For Naruto of the 458th Universe, he will have girls interested in him so it's very important I get these votes, mainly so he does not look like that fuck Makoto from School Days. We all know about fuck Makoto and what happened to him so yeah.

Overall, it's about whether he plays the bachelor and gets it on before deciding to stop and be responsible or a reserved person who saves himself for that one special person. This is very important and every vote counts. You'll find the poll on my profile page.


Also, my birthday came two days ago so that's a thing.

OP3: NEVER SURRENDER by 水樹 奈々

About 4 weeks had passed since Naruto's Rating Game with Hazama and Issei's victory over Riser. For starters, Joichi revealed he had a spirit that fought for him, which he dubbed a Stand. After he revealed it, the Agares Rook revealed his identity as Firebrand to him and told him about the existence of the supernatural. The next day, he spent nearly the whole day with Moka for her birthday, after being told that he was neglecting her by Archer. After that, Naruto spent more time with the vampire girl to make up for the times, like going to her house to study for the Midterm Exams (5/11-5/14), which they passed with perfect scores, buying groceries to cook at his house, going for karaoke, and helping out at Shirabi's shop. When he wasn't hanging with her or Shino, or doing jobs/contracts for Seekvaira, Ajuka, and Sirzechs, he helped Joichi train his Stand at Seekvaira's Mansion.

Joichi's Stand was a red, shirtless humanoid, with a long black mane, wearing a gold headband, bronze combat gloves (with studs), boots, and shoulder pads, and a white loincloth. He named it Heartbreaker, after Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. At one point, Joichi wanted to help Naruto with his vigilante duties, but every time he did, Naruto said no. Eventually, he decided to let him handle the "small dangers" involving robbers, thieves, rapists, and gangsters after he had completed his training and discovered Heartbreaker's ability to stop time for 3 seconds, allowing him to stop crimes without people knowing what happened within the three seconds (For some reason seconds seem very long in the manga/anime, but hey, it's JoJo so if seconds in there seem long, seconds in FIREBRAND are long as well), while Naruto handled the Stray Devils, Fallen Angels, and creatures from the Hidden Gap with Moka/Huntress. As of now, Naruto was facing what he considered his biggest challenge...

Sunday (6/5)

Nighttime

Namikaze Residence

Naruto's Room

Midway through playing "Build God, Then We'll Talk by Panic! At The Disco", Naruto screws up on the guitar.

"Dammit!"

"Hey, I call that an improvement," said Joichi, having helped Naruto learn guitar for the past three days. "Pretty soon you'll be able to perform the whole song." Looking at his phone, Joichi told Naruto he had to go home and that he'd see him tomorrow.

"JoJo..." Turning around, Joichi gets thanked by his friend for teaching him.

"You helped me with my Stand, it's only fair that I help you in return," Joichi responds, a smile on his face as he leaves to go home.

"...Kotomi, you can come out now." Coming out from behind the curtains, Kotomi asked him if the coast was clear. Naruto tells her to go into her Human Form. As soon as she did what Naruto told of her, Kotomi received a karate chop to the head.

"Ow! What was that for?" asked Kotomi.

"YOU were almost caught, after shrinking down to your pixie form in order to eat doughnuts," Kotomi tells him it was her preferred way of eating them and that she couldn't help herself. "Anyways, go brush your teeth and take a shower, I'll go in after you're done."

"Apologize first, for karate chopping me," said Kotomi.

"I am not going to do that," Naruto adamantly told her, making her pout and call him a meanie. With a smile, he tells her to bring her head closer. Doing so, Kotomi turned red in the face as he kissed the top of her head. "There you go. That should help."

"Wha-Wha-What was that!?" yelled the blushing familiar, feeling the top of her head. Naruto told her he usually does it with Akame whenever she bumped her head and that it got better after. "Uhhh..." Too embarrassed, Kotomi rushed into the bathroom and slammed the door behind the confused blond.

"You...are a fucking piece of work."

"How so?"

"It's surprising to see how dense you can be sometimes...So when are you and Sona going to fuck again?" Naruto turned red when Infernus asked the question, recalling what happened between them last week.

[Short Lemon]

After School

Student Council Room

Back and ass pressed against the window, a topless Sona, without her glasses, moaned in Naruto's mouth as the naked Agares Rook roughly fucked her pussy while holding her up by her legs. Parting lips, Sona told Naruto it took him long enough to go for the "main course".

"Maybe, but this right now makes the wait worth it," Naruto adds. "Now...turn around," he told her in a demanding manner. Sona changed her position as she pressed her chest, right cheek, and hands against the window and had her left leg over Naruto's shoulder as he rammed his cock in and out of her once more. Sona's breath fogs up the window as she heavily gasped from having the Rook roughly pound her nether regions, her eyes looking at him with lust.

"How does it feel to not be the one in control in this room for once, Sona-kaichou?" asked Naruto, a devilish grin on his face. It was a huge turn-on for Sona to have Naruto in charge and act like he was the master of the room. When would she ever get the chance to see this side of him again?

"You think...you can...talk to me that way?" asked a Sona. Instead of answering her, Naruto simply pushed his cock deeper inside, making the Sitri King gasp out loud before Naruto played with her tongue.

As they came close to their release, Sona decided to take back control as she pushed Naruto down on her desk and rode him, guiding his hands to her A-cup breasts as she moved up and down on his eight-inch girth. Soon after, Sona screamed at the top of her lungs as the Rook under her shot his load inside her pussy before collapsing on his chest.

"So this is what your girlfriend gets to experience..."

"Jealous?" Red in the face, Sona doesn't reply for a bit before telling him she may be a little bit jealous.

Lemon End

"You watched us!?" asked Naruto, Infernus telling him how Shino and Sona's moans made it hard for him to resist.

"I also find your rough nature to be entertaining, mainly during the sex. I remember when you fucked your girlfriend in that video game the both of you play," Infernus adds as he laughed out loud. "She was trying to concentrate on getting a headshot, and you were pounding her! Hahahahaha!" Naruto frowned when the demon talked about his sex life out loud. Sure, he was the only one who can hear him, but...

"She'll let me know...I have her phone number after all..."

"Uh-huh...Let's just hope she lets you know soon. That aside...Things have been handled pretty well around here."

"Most of the monsters we fought in the gap have been easy to handle (Gaping Dragon, Demon Firesage, Iron Golem, and Hydra). Although..." Infernus assures him that since they were a team, there was nothing the Hidden Gap had that they couldn't handle.

"Plus, you have that sexy Huntress girl helping you so that lessens the danger," said Infernus.

"That Huntress...How do you think she appears to the gaps before us? And how is she able to inform us about it after we sense it?" asked Naruto. Whenever a gap was found, Moka would be the first to arrive at it, as well as the first to inform him of it.

"Perhaps she has someone who is capable of finding it for her? Like your girlfriend?"

"You think Shino's Sacred Gear allows her to see the gap?" Infernus tells him he wasn't sure how capable the Asada girl's Sacred Gear was, but as of now, she was the only person other than them who could see it. When Infernus suggests telling her about his duties, Naruto decides against it, knowing she'll freak out over him going out fighting and killing on a daily/weekly basis.

"Only trying to help. But...hearing you say that..."

"What?"

"A girl like her...Have you ever thought about...ending it?" Naruto's eyes widen when he said that. "Don't get me wrong, Shino's great, sex and all, but...while she may be brave in-game, she and her real-life self aren't the same...She won't be able to handle the stuff you can."

"...I was afraid you'd say that...But..." Seeing him indecisive, he tells Naruto to give it some thought.

"Even if it hurts like hell to end it, you got to do what needs to be done...eventually." After Infernus told his host his thoughts, Kotomi came out of the bathroom.

Monday (6/6)

Kuoh Academy

Lunch

"The Issei rumors of theirs...I swear..." Naruto was annoyed to hear what he considered to be fake rumors of Issei using blackmail to get with Rias and Akeno, devouring Koneko's prepubescent body with his teeth, and getting it on with Asia. The ones spreading them were Matsuda and Motohama, and he had to fight the urge to beat the crap out of them.

"Just ignore them, Naruto," said Joichi as they got ready for lunch. "At least they're not spreading rumors about us." Curious, Joichi asked Naruto when he can tackle bigger enemies, ones the blond faced. "I enjoy fighting my share of bad people, but I did that on a daily basis, even without my Stand."

"Just be patient. I'll let you know when it's time, okay?" Though he didn't like the answer, Joichi agreed with him nonetheless. As they went up to meet with the others for lunch, Naruto got a text from Seekvaira, asking him if he could come to the mansion as soon as he could.

"I wonder what she-"

"Namikaze-kun..." Turning around, Naruto and Joichi find Aika standing behind them, a smirk on her face. "Just the guy I'm looking for!"

"Kiryuu-senpai?" Going up to him, she asked him to come to her house and help her with her homework tonight, since Naruto had a perfect score on his mid-terms. When asked why she needed his help, since she scored in the top 10 in her class, she told him, "Come on Namikaze-kun. Can't a senpai ask for help from their kouhai once in a while? I'll make dinner for you in return..." Looking at Joichi, hoping he can get him out of it, he saw him look the other way, not wanting to be a part of what's going on. With a sigh, he agrees to help her.

Kuoh General Hospital

"Thanks for coming today, Asada-san," said Kyouji as they carried equipment to Shizune and Ayumi's office.

"It's no trouble at all," she told him with a smile.

"...How are you and..."

"Naruto? If you're wondering if he's being good to me, he has," she told him, which was something he wished he didn't hear. "What about you? I haven't seen you in a while, in-game and out."

"I've just been helping my family is all, mostly my brother," he answered.

"You're not stressing yourself out, are you?" asked Shino, having a look of suspicion on her face. Kyouji assured his friend that everything was fine with him. Well, it would be if she broke things off with Naruto, but he wouldn't tell her that. Dropping off the equipment, the two are thanked by Shizune as Kyouji is tasked by her to send some reports to a doctor on the top floor. As soon as Kyouji leaves, Shino prepares to head back to her school.

"Hey Shino, would you like to stop by for dinner tonight?

"Of course," she said, smiling at the woman. "What's the occasion?"

"It's my birthday today," said Ayumi, having just arrived.

"Oh, hello Dr. Karnstein, and happy birthday."

"Thanks, Shino." Turning to Shizune, she asked her if all three Namikaze Siblings would be home.

"Naruto has to help a student study so he can't make it, though Akame will be home. For Chelsea...She's occupied with her college and will be unable to come."

Agares Mansion

Study Room

5:45 pm

"Well?" Seekvaira had asked Naruto to have Infernus look over the book in hopes that he knew the contents held within.

"I can't understand shit in this book," said Infernus. Seekvaira sighed, knowing she had this coming. "I've seen the language, but I never cared to read it. There WAS this one person I knew, who COULD read it, very hot, but she's probably dead."

"She could read it? How?"

"Didn't care to ask. I just cared about me and my..." When Naruto asked what he was going to say, Infernus told him to forget it. Before Naruto could question him, he gets a call from Shizune, asking him to grab the birthday cake for Ayumi's birthday.

"I have to go Seekvaira. I'm sorry Infernus wasn't much help." Seekvaira tells him it was fine, and to tell Ayumi she said happy birthday to her. As Naruto prepares to leave, Seekvaira, remembering how her father gave her the okay to pursue the Rook, said, "On second thought, I'm going!"

"What?"

"I'm...stressed out and need a break," said a blushing Seekvaira. "And since you have to go help a student with her homework, I will celebrate Dr. Karnstein's birthday in your stead."

"Thanks, Seekvaira, I appreciate it. I should also ask Chitose, Fujino, Eu, and Maki if they want to go celebrate it. If I remember right, Chitose cooks very well. Hmmm...I should also ask Pekoyama-senpai and Rinne."

On the way home...

Chitose felt nervous around Pekoyama as she walked with the others (Naruto, Seekaira, Fujino, Maki, Eu, and Rinne) to the Rook's House. Noticing this, Pekoyama asked her if something was wrong.

"No, nothing's wrong, it's just..." Noticing this, Naruto told his Rook to spit it out since it was the perfect time for her to make amends, after avoiding the Agares Knight for four weeks. "...I'm sorry for hurting you when I was ordered to attack and obtain poison for Naruto by my former King."

"It's okay, Chitose. You were only following orders from an un-noble King. "I accept your apology, and I hope we can get along starting now," said Pekoyama, an understanding smile on her face.

"That reminds me, what happened to Hazama?" Naruto asked his King.

"Since he fought without honor, Hazama has been banished from the House of Berith. He's out on his own now, though where he is now is...uncertain."

"Uncertain huh...Well, not my problem. The guy almost killed me...It stinks that Moka couldn't come."

"What? Why?" asked Seekvaira, Naruto telling her she had to take care of a "sick relative" who showed up yesterday.

Namikaze Residence

6:00 pm

"Welcome home Naruto nii-chan," said Akame as her brother and his guests enter. Handing Seekvaira the cake, he tells Akame he has to go help a student now and to save him a slice. This seemed to sadden Akame, but she understands. As soon as Naruto leaves, the girls get ready to cook up a feast in the kitchen, using the groceries Akame had bought for this occasion. Once Shizune and Ayumi came in, the girls shouted "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" to the latter.

"My, I didn't expect so many to come by for me..." said a genuinely surprised Ayumi. "I never thought I'd celebrate my birthday with so many cute girls."

"We cooked the food and got you presents you might like," said Seekvaira, the vampire doctor thanking her. "Let's all eat shall we?"

Kiryuu Residence

7:30 pm

For one and a half hours, Naruto helped Aika with her studies. The girl was a daughter of a famous lawyer father, and a stay at home mom. Her father was out working with clients while her mother went out to party with friends, one of them being engaged. To put it simply: They were the only ones inside the house.

"Thank you for the help, Namikaze-kun," said a grateful Aika as Naruto closed his textbook. "You really are a genius."

"Genius is an understatement..." said Naruto as he got up and prepared to leave, though he is stopped by Aika, who told him, "Remember, we're eating dinner together."

"O-Oh...Did I promise that?"

"If I recall, you almost burned down the kitchen in our academy during club tryouts." Naruto sweats a bit when he recalls the fire he started.

"I was trying to make scrambled eggs..."

Aika's Kitchen

"Just sit at the table and I'll make you a nice dinner, okay Honey?"

"Sounds good, Dear," said Naruto, sounding unconvincing as he took a seat at the dinner table.

"...I appreciate you for helping me, Namikaze-kun." This surprised Naruto. This was the most normal Aika's ever been. Usually, she was very perverted and...weird. "To be honest with you, I could've handled my studies myself, but I wanted a change of pace. I...rarely have any friends, and I am not a person who ever gets friends to come over, and the quietness is...a bit somber. It's nice that you agreed to come despite my...interesting personality."

"...Wow, I...It means a lot to hear you say that, Kiryuu-senpai. I'm glad I was able to help." With a smile, Kiryuu tells Naruto he was a good guy as she served him a plate of soba with a cup of dashi dipping sauce and a side of warm-cooked Sakura shrimp kakiage. Aika had the same as she sat on the chair opposite of him. After saying, "Itadakimasu", they dug in, Naruto complimenting her culinary skills as he slurped the noodles. Finished with dinner half an hour later, Naruto thanked her before getting ready to leave through the front door.

"Namikaze-kun?" Turning around, he asked her if she needed something. Red in the face as she twiddled with her two pointing fingers, she asked him if she could see him without his glasses.

"...If it'll stop you from trying to take them off at school..." Taking off his glasses, Naruto is met with a furiously blushing Aika. "Well?" Aika was speechless as Naruto wondered if she was okay. Putting his glasses back on, he asked her if she was okay. To his surprise, the girl became shy over him.

"Th-Thank you very much for coming! I-I'll see you tomorrow!" she told him before slamming the front door shut.

"...Aika being normal." Naruto has an amused smile on his face as he turns around to walk home. Feeling a drop of water on his head, Naruto looked up to see rain falling down on him.

With Xenovia

Unnamed Church

"It took a while to get through security, but we made it." The two exorcists had trouble bringing in the two Excalibur fragments through airport security. They had to wait until they were approved to carry them before making it here. As they enter the Church where Raynare took away Asia's Sacred Gear, Irina tells the bluenette how their informants were supposed to meet them here.

"So where are they?" asked Xenovia, Irina unsure but assuming they were running late. With a sigh, Xenovia tells her they should stay in the Church until the informants arrive, with Irina agreeing.

With Kiba

Kuoh Town

"Things will not go the way you planned..." said Naruto's homeroom teacher, wearing a priest uniform. She was clutching her stab wound as she defiantly looked up at Freed. "Your plans won't work. The Church will make sure you-" Tired of her, Freed cuts her down, killing her as he goes after the second priest. As Kiba walked along the rain-filled sidewalk, he thought about the words Issei told him, about them being friends.

"I apologize Issei, but it wouldn't be right for me to have friends...I don't deserve that, not now." Kiba stops to see a wounded dying old priest begging him for help before dying of his wounds.

"A priest?"

"Neener Neener, Yoohoo! It's been a while, hasn't it! Miss me?" said a smiling Freed, waving an Excalibur Rapidly around. "It's nice of the Playboy Scum of the Underworld to come to pay a visit."

"Freed Sellzen? Have you been hiding in town this whole time?" he asked the stray exorcist, anger in his voice.

"Such a tearful reunion, it brings a tear to thine eyes," Freed jokes.

"Unfortunately, I'm not in the best mood today," Kiba adds as he summons a demonic sword into his hands.

"That's perfect!" Freed told the Gremory Knight as he lets out a burst of maniacal laughter. "Let's have some fun! These priests I've been killing are no fun at all," he adds as the Excalibur fragment in his hands glows bright.

"No...That light! That aura! It can't be!"

"Oh, but it CAN! Nice timing. As penance for your previous actions, let's have a little test to see which is stronger, so tell me what you think!? Will your filthy cursed sword be the one? Or do you think the holy sword known as Excalibur will be the victor!?" he asked in an overly hysterical manner as he prepares to fight.

"WELL, TIME TO DIE!" yelled Freed, rushing at Kiba as he prepared to swing his sword. The Knight quickly locked blades with the stray exorcist before repelling him and using Holy Eraser on the holy sword, only to have the attack dispelled by its holy light. "That was cute. You win some and you lose some. Nice try kid."

"Whatever, it was just a test. I wanted to see if the sword was real. Thanks for giving me the license to destroy you and your sword!" yelled Kiba as he ran at Freed and clashing blades with him. However, Freed gets the upper hand as he finds an opening and leaves a cut on the Knight's right arm. Clutching his right arms, Kiba falls to his knees.

"It's been fun "dancing" with you. However, it looks like I have to cut this reunion sh-" Before he could say anything, Naruto, in his Firebrand attire, kicks him square in the chest, sending him skidding back. Getting up, Freed had a look of anger on his face as he locked eyes with the Agares Rook.

"The reunion's just getting started, asshole," said Naruto as Kiba looked up to see the vigilante Rook come to his defense. As Freed jumped up into the air and swung Excalibur Rapidly downward, Naruto effortlessly caught it by the blade, surprising the stay exorcist and the Gremory Knight, even as the holy light coming from the blade burns him, though slightly.

"That's...THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!" yelled Freed before being punched in the face, losing a tooth on the upper left side of his mouth in the process.

"Believe it, asshole!"

"How can a filthy Devil light you touch Excalibur!?"

"Maybe you're just a shitty wielder," said Naruto as he prepares to finish of Freed. This time, this time he won't get away was what Naruto thought as he sends a large fireballat him. However, it's sliced in half by Hoshikari, surprising the Agares Rook. "You!?"

"Firebrand..." Turning to Freed, Hoshikari tells him he shouldn't be going out doing as he pleased before telling him it was time to leave. When Freed, angered by Naruto's interference, says otherwise, Hoshikari hits him in the stomach with the handle of his katana and teleports away, just as the Rook lunged at them, swiping at air.

"Again...He fucking got away again...クソ野郎!(Kuso yarō!)(Son of a bitch!)" yelled an angry Naruto, punching the ground in front of him, leaving a small crater. Regaining his composure, Naruto turns around and heals Kiba's wound, telling him to go home or he'll catch a cold.

"Wait!" Naruto doesn't hear him as he teleports away. Kiba could only clench his teeth as he punched the ground in anger, bleeding from his knuckle.

Namikaze Residence

"I'm home..." said Naruto, wet from the rain pouring down on him, as he enters. Taking off his shoes, he walks over to the kitchen to see Shizune sitting at the kitchen table, fast asleep. With a smile, he grabs a blanket and puts it on her. Entering his room, he's surprised to see Shino, Seekvaira, Kotomi, Chitose, Fujino, Maki, Eu, and Rinne all fast asleep in his room. Not wanting to bother them, Naruto closed the door to his room and decided to try the guest room. However, he turned red when he saw the drunk and happily sleeping Ayumi on the bed, wearing nothing on.

"Oooh, time for an early birthday gif-" Infernus is interrupted by the blushing Naruto closing the door. "Aww man..." Entering Akame's room, he asked her if she was awake.

"Hmmm?"

"You think I can sleep in here tonight?"

"Mmmm, sure Naruto nii-chan." Thanking her, Naruto gets in bed with her before closing his eyes.

Tuesday (6/7)

Kuoh Academy

Arriving at school, Tsubaki gets Sona's attention as the points out Xenovia and Irina observing them. Wondering what they wanted, Sona and Tsubaki approached them.

"Sona Sitri, the next heiress of the Sitri Clan?"

"Is there a reason why two powerful exorcists carrying holy swords are here in wait at the front of our academy?" asked Sona. Xenovia tells her she and Irina need to talk to Rias Gremory about something important she'll need to hear. "Very well, you can meet her tomorrow in the afternoon, at the Occult Research Club. How does that work for you?" The bluenette simply nods before telling Irina they should go see Caren and tell her of Keito's death before visiting the twin-tailed girl's friend's house.

Gymnasium

"Naruto, what do you think about this emergency morning assembly?" whispered Joichi.

"Not sure...but we're about to find out now," said Naruto as the headmaster gets up on the podium.

"Ahem...As many of you don't know...the homeroom teacher Ms. Kiwami was found murdered last night." Several students start talking to themselves as Naruto and Joichi's eyes widened.

"She's...dead?" Joichi said in disbelief as the headmaster continues talking to his students.

Vending Machine Area

"It's hard to take in...Our homeroom teacher..." Naruto tells Joichi there was nothing they could do about it since they didn't know who killed her, and at the moment, they had no leads. He then assured him that, whoever did it, they'll make sure the killer pays. "I hope so..."

"Naruto? Joichi?" Turning around, the two see Moka approach them. "How are the two of you holding up?"

"Not too good," said Joichi. "Ms. Kiwami was a nice teacher. Sure, she was overly eccentric all the time, especially when Naruto gets all the right answers to her questions, that was one of the many great things about her. Though we only knew her for more than a month...I just hope her killer's found. It's bull not being able to do something about it," he told them before angrily crushing his unopened soda can, surprising Naruto and Moka as sticky soda liquid gets on his hands.

"Sorry, I'-"

"It's okay, JoJo. You're not the only person feeling this way," Naruto adds, recalling Koneko's reaction from the news.

"We seriously need a night to cool off. Let's all go do some karaoke," Moka suggests. "It's been a while since we all went together. We can even bring Koneko. What do you say?" Naruto agrees with Moka ask Joichi, though reluctant, agrees as well.

With Archer

Kuoh Town

"Which flavor would you like to have?"

"That one! I want the vanilla-flavored one Mommy!"

Archer smiled to herself as she watched a mother treat her daughter to some ice cream at a stand across from her. She figured she should buy some ice cream to have with Moka while out getting medicine that would help Keito recover faster. Resuming her duties, Archer accidentally bumps into Irina, making the girl drop her ice cream on the sidewalk. Panicking, she asked the girl if she was okay.

"My rocky road!" said a sad Irina, falling to her knees in defeat.

"Oh, I'm so sorry."

"No..it's okay."

"No it's not," said Archer. "I shall buy you another one at once!" Going over to the ice cream stand, Archer buys another rocky road ice cream for a thankful Irina, who happily licks the frozen treat.

"Thank you. you didn't have to, but...thanks."

"You're welcome...I'm just glad I was able to help put a smile on someone's face, even if it was something as simple as buying ice cream." Irina smiles as she commends Archer.

"Irina, there you are." Turning around, Irina sees Xenovia approach her, the former asking if she's ready to continue to Caren's. Seeing the bluenette, Archer's eyes widened.

"You're..."

"Hm?" Now noticing Archer, Xenovia turns to her and asked, "Do I know you?" Jumping in, Irina tells the bluenette how she (Archer) bought her another ice cream cone after accidentally bumping into her. "Is that so..." Xenovia thanks the Servant for helping her friend, who told her it wasn't any trouble at all.

"Let's get a move on, Xenovia," said a cheery Irina.

"Of course..." Turning around, the two exorcists made their way to the church Caren was staying at.

"Xenovia..." Saying the girl's, strange memories start appearing in the Servants thoughts, memories she couldn't understand. From the flashes, she recalled a smiling priest, a harsh but gentle teacher, her learning a special type of magic, and eating ramen together with someone whose face she couldn't see. Watching as the two girls left, a single tear flowed down her right eye. Realizing this, she touched it. "Eh?"

From a safe distance, Mika and Mest observe Xenovia and Irina, the former contacting Esdeath, letting her know that there were no changes in the bluenette they should worry about.

"Good, keep monitoring them, let me know what they're doing."

"Of course, Esdeath. So says Mika." Turning to Mest, she tells him what Esdeath told her as they get a move on.

With Xenovia

Unnamed Church

"So...Keito's dead..." Xenovia only nods as she looks down on the carpeted floor, a sad expression on her face. "And you're certain that Firebrand is the one who did it?"

"Yes...We know who he is, but that's all. The files Naoko had on one of the adopted girls, Akame, didn't have much information other than who her adopted parents are, and that they live somewhere in Japan," Xenovia adds.

"What does this Akame have to do with this?"

"Your brother's killer is Akame's adopted brother, Naruto Namikaze." Hearing the bluenette's answer, Caren has a surprised look on her face before it quickly becomes serious as she tells her and Irina to make sure he pays for killing her little brother if they find him.

"I'll...We'll make sure of it." Hearing her say that, Irina has a worried expression on her face as she looked at Xenovia.

"Please, unless I come to you, you won't be able to find me. Oh, how I love to play this game of cat and mouse with you. It makes our eventual reunion all the more meaningful and satisfying. Like one of those video games you play." Annoyed by the evil manifestation, Xenovia turns to leave for Issei's as Irina follows behind, telling the bluenette she didn't know where he lived.

With Rias

Sitri Residence

Sauna

Entering, Rias comments on how long it's been since she was last here as she and Akeno took off their towels, exposing their well-endowed figures

"Really? Did you used to come a lot?" asked Akeno. Sona, entering with Tsubaki, told them how she and Rias used to come here to tell secrets as she and her Queen took off their towels. Sitting down, Rias asked the Student Council President what she wanted to talk to her about.

"This morning...two people from the Church contacted me."

"Did they tell you what they wanted? asked Rias.

"They did. They wanted to speak with you. They said it was urgent," Sona answered as she cleans her glasses before telling her they were going to see them after school at the ORC Building. Recalling the photo Issei showed her, with an Excalibur fragment in the background, she wondered if it was about that.

With Issei

Hyoudou Residence

Sensing Xenovia and Irina in his house, Issei, worried for his family, Asia rushed in to see his mom talking to the two exorcists.

"Oh hey Issei, welcome home," said his mother. "What's with that sour look on your face?"

"Oh, nothing Mom it's just...It's nothing, really."

"Hello again, Issei, it's been a while," said Irina, Issei unaware of who she was.

"Irina Shidou, don't you remember her?" asked Issei's Mother as she showed him the photo of them when they were younger, the Gremory Pawn realizing that the "boy" in the photo was Irina.

"That's her!? How the hell!?"

"I know, she looks so different," said Issei's Mother, sounding amazed by Irina looks now. "She's positively gorgeous now, isn't she?" As Irina talked to her childhood friend, Xenovia watched silently, saying nothing as she sipped her cup of tea and watched.

With Naruto

barcode (Karaoke Bar)

Finishing the song "RAIN by SID", Joichi receives applause from the others (Naruto, Moka, Koneko, Kotomi, Maki, Fujino, and Shino). Shirabi would've come, but she had to help at her uncle's shop, much to her disappointment.

"Oh man, I needed this!" said Joichi, his mood improving after three songs. "Naruto?"

"Oh no, I'm still finishing my drink. I'll sing after Harumaki. After all, singing here is on her list," Hearing this, Maki turned red.

"I don't sing very well," she told them. Shino denies this, telling the Pawn how she sang at Naruto's place, and how the others called it beautiful. "Shino..." Hearing Naruto saying he was curious about it, Maki, hesitant, decides to do it, though only if Naruto finished his drink and sang with her.

"Better down that drink Naruto," said Koneko as she quietly sipped her chocolate shake. Selecting "Waiting For The Rain by Maaya Sakamoto", Naruto and Maki prepare to sing, surprising the others with how well they go together.

Shino notes how good Maki's English was, the others agreeing as Moka adds how well Maki sang the song, noting how it goes great with her voice. After singing the duet, Maki, seeing Naruto's amused face, turned red as she sat back down while everyone in the room applauds her.

"Don't sing very well huh?" asked a smiling Naruto. Maki simply tells him she'll kick him in the balls if he ever tells anyone outside of the room.

With Hoshikari

Taking out four runes, he opens up a tear to the Hidden Gap. Kokabiel had been meaning to control the many dangers that came resided from within the Hidden Gap. However, he hadn't the means or the magic to do so. That is, until he met "her." Accompanying Kokoabiel's son was a tall female humanoid, who appeared to be skinless, having red and white exposed flesh and a skirt made of vein-like branches. She also wielded a similarly flesh-like poleaxe.

"Are you sure this is the right spot, Elana?"

"Yes, behind this gap are one of many powerful warriors...Their power will surely be needed to handle this...Firebrand."

With Naruto

barcode (Karaoke Bar)

As everyone prepared to head home, Naruto sensed a familiar presence out in the distance, Maki and Kotomi as well.

"Uhhh Naruto...Is it me or are you sensing-"

"Manus!? But you killed him!"

"I thoughts so too. We should look into this." Telling the others he, had to go to work and that Seekvaira had asked for Maki. Joichi, knowing it's Firebrand business, tells them to take good care of themselves before they ran off.

With Seekvaira

Agares Mansion

As she arranged some paperwork for tomorrow, the Agares King, sensing the same presence Naruto and Maki felt, decides to check it out personally, asking Alivian to take care of things while she was gone.

With Archer

Akashiya Residence

Having just finished helping Mary tend to Keito's wounds, Archer asks Mary if she needs anything to eat.

"No, I'm fine...but thanks for asking," Mary told her with a small smile as she turned to Keito and caressed his cheek. Watching Mary's tenderness towards her lover, another memory flashed in her eyes, one of her holding someone in her arms, whose face was still blurry to her. After experiencing it, tears flowed down her face, without her realizing it.

"Archer-san?" Turning to Mary, she was asked if she was okay. Wiping her tears away, she told the Assassin-servant she was fine, she just remembered something involving her past. "A sad memory?"

"Yes...though it involves someone, a boy, whose face I can't see. Yet..."

"Yet?" Before she could tell Mary more, Moka comes barging in, telling them she was home, surprising them. "Eh? Did I interrupt something?"

With Naruto, Maki, and Seekvaira

Anor Lando

Entering, Naruto and Maki voice their surprise when they see their King, who had just killed an Iron Golem by herself, parts of its armor melted and/or broken off.

"Oh, Naruto, Maki!" said Seekvaira. "About time the both of you showed up." With a smile, Seekvaira told them, for just this night, she will show them the strength of the heiress of the Agares Clan.

"We're about to face a lot of resistance. I sense several enemies up ahead, all of their energies darkened and tethered to someone who possesses powerful magic, equal to or greater than mine."

"She's right. All their energies are connected to one source, and it all leads to that palace up ahead."

"Naruto, Maki, let's go." As the three fought through several Batwing Demons, Painting Guardians, and Sentinels, the Rook and the Pawn saw their King easily cut, slice, and blast through those foolish enough to face her as Seekvaira used her Light of Luceras magic to create swords, whips, arrows, chains, and knives. When they entered the palace, the Agares King immediately formed two mandalas of light that blocked an attack from two Royal Sentinels. Forming them into a pair of bladed fans, Seekvaira quickly outmaneuvered the two large sentinels before cutting the back of their legs, forcing them on their knees before she cuts off their heads, just before her bladed fans disperse into particles.

"Where did you learn how to fight like that?" asked an amazed Naruto. He swore she only knew Bajiquan, but this was a whole new Seekvaira.

"Are you surprised to see the new and improved Seekvaira Agares?" she asked her Rook, "flirting" with Naruto.

"Of course, I knew you were strong, but...Let's just say that it's nice to have someone like you watching my back." This makes Seekvaira turn red in the face as Maki looks on, looking a bit jealous.

"I can watch your back too you know..." Maki whispered to herself.

"If you're done kissing your King's nice ass, Manus and that one Fallen Angel are just up those stairs."

"We should continue up those stairs." Seekvaira simply nods as she and her two peerage members run up the stairs at the opposite end of the room, entering the long, rectangular and empty cathedral, with parallel sets of pillars on either side. In front of them, they see Hoshikari watching as Elana used her magic to take control of Ornstein and Smough. Ornstein was a slightly larger than human-sized knight wielding a lightning spear while Smough was a large, obese executioner wielding a tremendous hammer.

"What the fuck? That's not Manus. Yet..." Noticing Naruto's presence, Elana turns to meet her enemies' gaze. Looking at the Rook, she formed an angry expression towards him.

"You...I remember you. You're the one who killed me!"

"Naruto? Do you know that woman?" Naruto tells Maki he's never met her at all.

"Of course, you don't remember me, seeing as how I'm in a different form and all."

"Hmmm, I understand why I sense Manus...This woman is a whole new entity, born from a fragment of his soul. It seems that when I defeated him, he split his soul into fragments, creating all-new entities."

"Just my luck," said Naruto as he took out Igneox.

"You've gotten stronger, Firebrand. Perhaps you'll prove to be a far more formidable opponent this time around..." In an instant, Naruto and Hoshikari disappear and reappear at the center of the room, the Rook blocking a sword strike from the Fallen Angel before repelling him and swinging his staff downward. Hoshikari blocks Naruto's strike before performing a charging thrust attack. Extending his staff, Naruto blocked it as they both crash through the palace walls and take the fight outside, leaving Maki and Seekvaira to fight Elana, Ornstein, and Smough. Outside, both Naruto and Hoshikari found themselves unable to hit the other, being evenly matched.

Moving back, Naruto takes out his Winchester and fires two charged shots at the Fallen Angel. Hoshikari's one wing comes forward and becomes metallic as it blocks the shots. He then fired a flurry of bladed feathers at the Rook, who flew towards him and knocked them away with Igneox as he ignites the ends of his weapon with flames and engaged in close quarters with his opponent once again.

"You better not be holding back like last time," Naruto told him.

"I made the mistake of underestimating you several times. This time, I won't," said a smirking Hoshikari as he parried Naruto's attack and went for an upward slash. Naruto narrowly avoids it before creating a sphere of light in his left hand that explodes into a large scale flash, blinding the Fallen Angel before he takes out his chain and ensnares him, tugging it to pull Hoshikari towards him as he yells, "GET OVER HERE!"

In the cathedral, Elana fires a dark orb towards Seekvaira, who simply used repel magic to redirect it back at her. Elana swats the attack away with her Wrathful Axe before preparing a downward swing as she appears in front of the Agares King in an instant and brings her weapon down on her. Seekvaira quickly rolls out of the way before ensnaring her right foot with a whip made of light and tugs it, making her opponent slip and fall to the floor. Seeing Seekvaira's mischievous grin angers her as she casts Chaos Storm.

Running up on Smough's stomach, Maki performs a backflip kick, dazing him before avoiding Ornstein's lightning bolt as it accidentally hits the obese executioner. With her gun, Maki fires four shots at Ornstein, three of them bounce off his armor as one of the shots dents it slightly.

"Maki, switch!" With a nod, both Pawn and King switch opponents as the former parries Elana's strike and counterattacks, managing to cut her opponent's arm.

"Why you miserable-" Maki doesn't let Elana finish her sentence as she unloads a whole clip into her while holding Kiriichimonji in a reverse grip and blocked her strike.

Seekvaira forms a mystically-formed blade made of space that is warped into a glass-like material and throws it at Smough, piercing his stomach without penetrating his armor and flesh. Forming two more, she throws them at him, hitting his right arm and leg before putting an impact rune in front of her as Ornstein was about to thrust his spear. As soon as it hits the rune, Ornstein is sent flying back, knocking him into a pillar. Forming a mandala in front of her, Seekvaira blocks Smough's trample charge.

Back outside, a slightly wounded Hoshikari resorts to using Iaido to swing his blade fast enough to try and cut and slice Naruto from a distance. While this was a problem before, Naruto was ready as he parried the long-ranged slashing attacks with Igneox's twin blades mode. Before they could resume their fight, they hear a beeping sound. Realizing their time was up, Hoshikari sighs as he tells Naruto, "It seems that I've wasted too much time and must get back to my father. It was nice fighting you again, Firebrand. Next time, I will finish you."

"What?" Following this, Hoshikari disappeared before reappearing next to Elana, telling her they had enough fun for tonight. "NO! I will not retreat! Not when-"

"You'll have your chance next time. We already have two warriors under our control, warriors we need for my father. We can't lose them now." Elana cursed herself for being unable to finish off the Pawn and the King as she and Hoshikari disappeared with Orenstein and Smough.

"They got away, huh?" said Seekvaira, sighing as Maki and Naruto regrouped with her.

"So we have a fleshy bitch who's a fragment of Manus, a dragonslayer, and an obese executioner...Talk about a clusterfuck."

"You said it Infernus...This is getting way out of hand as it is..."

"With our enemies gone, we should call it a night and head home." As the three prepare to leave, Naruto feels a warm presence coming from above as he turns around and walks to an ancient elevator in a room on the left side of the cathedral. Noticing this, Seekvaira asks where he's going as she and Maki follow.

"I don't know, but I feel something, or someone, calling to me..." he told them. Making to the top level, the three exit the elevator and head up the stairs on their left, stopping at a door. "The warm presence, it's coming from within this room..." Entering, the three form surprised looks on their faces as they see a gigantic, fair lady with red hair and a kind face in front of them. A light shines brightly behind her figure. She is dressed in white cloth and rests on a cushion underneath her arm.

"That's a huge bitch!" yelled Infernus, before commenting on the godly rack she had. "If only our link was repaired, I would've been able to grow big and fu-"

"I am Gwynevere. Daughter of Lord Gwyn; and Queen of Sunlight. Since the day Father his form did obscureth, I have await'd thee," said the woman, surprising the three.

"You were waiting for me?" asked Naruto, confused. Moving her head closer, Gwynevere inspects the Rook as Seekvaira and Maki watch, wondering what she was thinking. "It seems you've already inheriteth the Fire of our world." Hearing this piques Seekvaira's curiosity.

"What do you mean by the Fire of our world?" she asked Gwynevere, only to be ignored by the large woman as she focused on Naruto.

"Flame-bearer...It seems that you're not ready..." When Naruto asked her what he wasn't ready for, she simply smiled as she told him, "There are many trials ahead of you, Flame-bearer, but with patience and bravery, thou shall be ready to face my father, Gwyn. For now, I bequeath the Lordvessel to thee." Having said that, Gwynevere gives Naruto a large golden bowl that quickly shrinks so it can be held before telling them her time was up and bidding good luck to Naruto in the things to come as she disappears in a flash of light.

"The ass that got away..." Infernus sighed after saying this.

"Infernus, you never met that woman?" Naruto asked, curious. "She said she was-"

"Nope, this was the first time I knew a hot chick like her existed, and she got away..."

"You win and lose some..."

"Naruto, may I see that bowl you have?" Once Naruto gives it to her, Seekvaira takes some time to observe it. "I should keep this in my mansion until we know what its uses are, and whatever these trials she mentioned are, let's just hope you can overcome them when they present themselves..."

Kuoh Town

Exiting Anor Lando, Seekvaira destroyed the runes keeping the tear open, closing it.

"While Hoshikari and his "new friends" escaped, we didn't come out empty-handed, so I'd call this a small victory," said Seekvaira. "You both did a great job tonight. Go home and rest."

"You as well, Seekvaira. You were a huge help there." Turning red, she frantically adjusted her glasses before telling Naruto she was doing what any King would do, take action when needed.

With Xenovia

Dormy Inn Kanazawa

Showering after Irina, Xenovia took some time for herself as she did some mental training while the water sprayed her body with warm water.

"You know, if this wasn't a mission, and Irina wasn't around, I'd love to come in and have you all to myself...Is what you'd think I'd say."

"Shut up..."

"Oh, I'm sooo scared. I bet you wouldn't mind if you and I just had some nice hate-filled shower se-" Xenovia interrupts the evil manifestation by throwing her soap at it, only to have the manifestation disappear. Getting out of the shower, Xenovia puts on a robe and dries her hair.

In another room, Mika used Spectator to observe Xenovia, letting Mest know there was no problem with her before telling him how she talks to herself.

"She talks to herself? Isn't she too old to have an imaginary friend?" Curious, Mest asked if he could try out Spectator, with Mika getting defensive as she puts her hands over her Teigu.

"I'm hungry, order room service. So demands Mika," Mika told Mest as her stomach growls.

With Moka

Akashiya Residence

Seeing Mary happily resting at Keito's side, Archer puts a blanket over her before closing the door and entering her Master's room.

"Moka?"

"Hmm?" Getting out of the bathroom, she asked her Servant what she needed. It came as a surprise when Archer told her she started remembering some parts of herself. "That's good Archer! I'm glad that-"

"However...most of them are still a mystery to me. But...I think I may know how to get more back," Archer adds, interrupting her Master. "There's a girl I met today."

"Archer, don't tell me...You swing that way as well!?" said Moka, red in the face as she puts her right hand over her mouth.

"No, I'm not...Maybe a little...Anyways, her name's Xenovia. I can't understand why, but her name...triggered my memories." Wondering to herself, Moka asked her if the bluenette in question was her daughter. "My...daughter? It's possible."

"If she's the one person who can help regain your memories, whatever your relationship with her, I will help you find her tomorrow."

"But don't you-" Moka tells Archer not to worry since she's already the top student in her class.

"Oh, this is going to be great, ditching school to help my Servant find a girl who might be her daughter..." Archer only smiled at her Master as she (Moka) continued voicing her excitement, stars in her eyes.

With Sona

Sitri Mansion

Hearing the doorbell ring, Sona wondered who it was as she walked over to it and opened the door. To her surprise, it was Naruto.

"Naruto? What are you doing at my house?" she asked.

"Happy Birthday, Sona-Kaichou. I just came here after a mission to deliver my present to you, and eat this birthday cake I bought at the last minute."

"You remembered?" Naruto told her how he noticed she was too occupied with her work to celebrate it. "I figured I'd come over and properly celebrate it, even if it's just the two of us. You don't mind staying up for a couple more hours, do you?" Red in the face, she told Naruto she didn't mind, allowing him into her home.

"By the way, how did you know where I live?" asked Sona, Naruto telling her Momo gave him her address.

With Issei

Hyoudou Residence

Issei took a breath after finishing a cup of water in the kitchen. Tonight he had to calm the situation between Rias and Asia down by simply choosing to share the bed with them. Of course, he had to make Buchou wear her nightgown since Asia would also have copied whatever she did.

"It seems like Asia will become erotic because of Buchou's influence..." While that would make the Pawn feel happy, at the same time, it left him with complicated feelings. He needed to protect Asia, mainly her innocence, yet...The girl (Asia) he was trying to protect becoming erotic...it might be a good thing, but it could also be a bad thing as well. On the bed, Issei slept between Rias and Asia. For him, it was a situation he always dreamed of. The ultimate situation for guys!

However, if he thought of laying a hand on his King, who slept on the left side of him, Asia would get mad. If he thought of laying a hand on Asia, who slept on the right side, then the good and moral side of him would tell himself not to.

Sighing once more, Issei fell back to sleep, or we would've fallen asleep, had Rias not held his face in between her breasts.

TO BE CONTINUED...

ED3: 哀愁トワイライト by 水樹 奈々


I wanted to end with Xenovia and Irina meeting the Occult Research Club and having their fight, but I felt something like this was better for the next chapter. I ALSO wanted to say that, while I could have ended it withing 3,000 - 6,000 words, people have them waiting for the reunion and I want to give it to them as soon as possible.

It seems that Archer has had a run-in with Xenovia, the latter triggering lost memories. Eventually, one scene will reveal trigger her, unlocking her full abilities and showcasing her true worth. I WILL say that while she will remember who she is, there are STILL many mysteries about her.

I WANT to point out that, while Xenovia knows Naruto's name, his parents, and Akame, she has no idea where they live. Japan's a huge place, and I wanted to make my own way of having the two reunite.

With Aika, I wanted to show Naruto interacting with other people outside of his circle, having played and watched so much Persona games that I decided to add this little part in.

The scene with Naruto catching the blade, I will say that Naruto did get injured when he held the blade, it's that he had a form of tolerance towards it, showcasing how far he's come since he first became Infernus's host. I also like to explain why Freed simply gets away from Naruto at the last second: It's simply not his time to die...yet. I like to stay canon after all, though I will tweak things here and there if I deem it so.

As I've said in an earlier chapter, I wanted to kill Naruto's teacher, and I did. Joichi, in the next chapter, will find himself getting involved with Issei's fight with Freed when he overhears Issei talking to Saji and Koneko at his job place.

The whole karaoke part was a way to have the characters calm down a bit before the coming storm. Also, the song Maki chose is sung by her Japanese voice actress Maaya Sakamoto. I also wanted to show that Maki is slowly starting to have (new) affections for the Rook.

Next chapter may or may not have several fights. They'll have a lot but I don't know how many. All you need to know is that many people are going to fight, Keito WILL wake up and help fight alongside Mary, Issei will be the main focus for a bit, as will Naruto and Xenovia, secrets are revealed, and so on. Also, Shino, in particular, will see the truth, and it...Let's just say that you better watch that scene with Iida confronting Izuku about his choice to go save Bakugou, as it takes inspiration from that somehow, along with the final fight in Spider-Man PS4.

One scene that was originally in this chapter involved Akame kissing Naruto, thinking she was still sleeping. HOWEVER, that would put in too much since the focus was on the arrival of the danger that's Kokabiel, Xenovia's arrival in Japan, Archer's memories being triggered, and another mystery involving Infernus presenting itself.

Yes, Manus is dead, but in the canon, his soul separated itself and formed new entities. This helped me make it so the Manus situation isn't over just because he's dead. One of them, Elana represents his wrath, and this wrath is directed towards Naruto since he (and Infernus) killed her. With Elana, Ornstein, and Smough added in to boost the military strength of the Fallen Angels, it makes Kokabiel an even bigger threat.

I know, once Gwynevere disappeared, the place goes to hell and everyone started attacking, but I had to tweak it a bit here and there to make it work.

Involving Infernus, Naruto and the demon's link will be repaired once the battle with Kokabiel or Hoshikari starts, allowing Naruto to utilize a powerful technique/form.

For Seekvaira being included in the fight, I wanted her to play a more active role, showing off a few of her skills in a fight. There was a moment where Seekvaira or Maki would borrow Igneox and show off better skills with it than Naruto, but maybe it'll show up next chapter or the chapter after the next one.

I wanted to include Shirabi in a few scenes, but her reveal will come when the Peace Treaty Arc arrives. All I can say is that she is VERY powerful. Looking back at Chapter 11, she hinted at being something else entirely, and I'm excited to eventually have her come out.

Overall, everything is going full Game of Thrones in this.


DELETED/SCRAPPED EXTRA

"Oooh, time for an early birthday gif-" Infernus is interrupted by the blushing Naruto closing the door. "Aww man..." Entering Akame's room, he asked her if she was awake.

"Hmmm?"

"You think I can sleep in here tonight?" Too tired and groggy to open her eyes, she said okay. Naruto thanks her as he gets in bed with her and falls asleep.

Tuesday (6/7)

Akame's Room

Opening his eyes, Naruto got up as he yawned while stretching his arms. Looking at Akame, he found her still fast asleep. Gently shaking her, he told Akame to wake up.

"Five more minutes honey..." said a still sleepy Akame.

"Akame, you have to wake up and get ready for school."

"Well, I guess I can get up, I just need..."

"You just need wha-" Before he could say anything, the still sleepy Akame pulled his face towards hers and gave him a kiss, shocking him. After a good ten seconds, the girl opens her eyes to see that she was actually kissing her brother.

"Parting lips, a blushing Naruto told her, "Umm...I...Uh...I'm not your honey?" Akame's face turns completely red before she screams at the top of her lungs, waking everyone up.

"Na-Na-Na-Naruto nii-chan, I can explain! I-"

"I-It's fine, Akame. You were having a nice dream about a guy you must like at school and thought I was him." Abruptly opening the door, Seekvaira, wearing a green nightgown belonging to Chelsea, asked Akame what was wrong.

"You see, Akame-"

"Nothing! Nothing happened at all! Nothing..." After remembering the sensation of Naruto's lips, Akame turns red, yelling, "You...You're the worst, Naruto nii-chan!" before rushing to her bathroom and slamming the door shut.
