But anyway onto the story was really hyped to write this.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

As her siblings fled Miya took a moment to observe her "opponent", he was a rather handsome young man if she was forced to admit, however it had looked like he had been through hell in a very literal sense, he was covered in scrapes and bruises clad in little more than rags wearing only a damaged mesh shirt and tattered orange pants with what looked like sandals?

what caught her attention the most though was his face, golden blonde hair that spiked out in an unruly fashion, three strange scar like marks marred his already scuffed cheeks but what really stood out was his eyes a blue deeper than the ocean that just seemed to stare at her tiredly, though they also held a strength that unnerved her.

all in all though he looked ready to kill over but the aura emitted was staggering even to someone like her, he was dangerous that much she knew form the way he handled karasuba with such ease, that was why she had shouted at her siblings to flee, they would not be able to handle whatever he was but she, she was a flesh and blood goddess and she would not let this creature harm her wingless birds.

unbeknownst to Miya, Naruto was also taking this small moment to regain some energy and observe the beautiful and irate woman across from him, Naruto had to admit she was one of the prettiest people he had ever seen even if she was ready to kill him with that oversized katana of hers, lavender hair cut in a hime style framed her face he also saw cold wine colored eyes peeking form just beneath her bangs.

The outfit she wore was interesting though, a black yakuta style out dress clung to her body showing off her lithe frame with thigh high boots stopping just below her out fit showing off a fair amount of her thighs, Naruto almost smacked himself when he caught himself staring and by the way the grip on her blade tightened so did she, what caught his eye for a second though was the grey haori that sat on her shoulders a symbol of a bird with six tomoe underneath sat on her left over her heart, 'huh wonder if she's related to super gramps who know how many other crazy and powerful women he's got running around in his family tree.'

At that he heard kurama let out a snort of amusement.

"Naruto, this woman doesn't seem to be in the talking mood looks like we are going to have a fight on our hands, she's got an impressive amount of energy to say the least, nothing actually concerning to be fair, thought the energy is unfamiliar to me, but be careful she's an unknown and we are running on fumes as it is we can't do anything to strenuous." the fox finished his long speech relaying what he could to Naruto.

"Heh, i know buddy i can barely stand right now, but when do i ever get to talk first it's fist, blood and pain first, then usually we end up getting along, well usually." Naruto finished with a mild look of amusement though there was a bit sadness in his voice towards the end, then his face turned serious.

"hey kurama do you think there's enough natural energy left to gather for sage mode?" the young blonde asked his tenant?

"Already on it brat." kurama said with a grin as he placed his hands together in a praying motion, he frowned however when he took note of the natural energy the world produced, it felt raw and untouched, just another thing confirming the age old fox's suspicion this was not good but he would hold his thoughts for later now Naruto needed to focus, he just hoped he would be the one to tell his father's successor that much the fox hoped for. that's when he heard Naruto speak aloud to the woman breaking the kyuubi from his thoughts.

"Hey lady! i really don't want to do this, i didn't mean to hit your friend that hard but she suddenly attacked me so instinct kicked in ya' know!" Naruto called across the clearing to the purple haired woman, only to receive a an even harder glare than before causing him to frown slightly, 'hard way it is then' he thought with a sigh.

He was surprised to hear an actual reply this time though just not one he had hoped for.

"you invade this sacred island, harm my sister and cause an explosion that turned the sky into a blanket of white, and you wish to speak to me?" Miya spoke each word slowly and with a startling amount of calm that surprised even her, she grit her teeth hard enough hard enough however that she tasted blood a new sensation to be sure.

"No. i will not speak to you monster, No i will end you here and now before any harm come to my people, now prepare yourself i will make your death swift and painless, be honored you will die at the hands of a goddess." Miya finished with a breath as a purple energy rolled off her in waves covering the soon to be battlefield setting her self into a ready stance, as she prepared to shoot forward to cut the man down she paused a moment when she saw his reaction.

Naruto had listened to her little speech unbothered hoping she would stop and see reason, that was until she called him a monster. Fuck he hated that word it stung just like it had back then, who the hell was this lady to call him a monster huh!? he was hurt and exhausted he didn't know where he was and where his friends were and then he gets attacked by a cross dressing kakashi and when he defends himself he's suddenly the bad guy!

Then miss high and mighty over here wants to give him a speech then call herself a Goddess and him a monster! what bullshit! why did it always turn out like this?couldn't he catch a break just fucking once!? dammit!

"NARUTO CALM DOWN!" he suddenly heard Kurama shout.

that's when he noticed the golden wisps of chakra and gale forced winds surrounding him, tendrils of energy lashing off of him violently as he had been so caught up in his own frustration that he didn't notice himself subconsciously flexing his chakra, he also noticed the woman's now shocked face as a few beads of sweat rolled down her brow

" sorry kurama I'm just frustrated is all, the last thing i need is this lady calling me a monster." he finished with a frown he needed to finish this and find sasuke to undo the tsukiyomi time was of the essence and he couldn't waste it here.

"hey kurama."

"are you ready?" he asked

"Yeah". the fox grinned

"LET'S GO!/LET'S GO!" they spoke in unison Naruto's eyes took on a new look with red covering his upper eyelids and his once blue eyes turning gold with a bar shaped pupil, he leaned forward and pressed his feet into the ground with enough force to form a small crater he shot forward with a mach cone form around as the earth beneath him buckled and was blasted backwards, ready to met the now furiously approaching woman in the middle of their arena.

To say Miya was floored was an understatement when she had been giving him her monologue he seemed indifferent if not a little annoyed at it, until she had called him a monster of course, the sudden change in the air was palpable, the way his hair shadowed his eye the way his fists clenched so hard he drew blood made her realize that she may have gone to far, then it hit her the "golden abyss" as she would come to call it erupted out of his body, golden energy unlike anything she had ever seen or felt, the wind around him swirled into a maelstrom of power that seemed to encompass her, then she felt it. the pressure, or dear kami the pressure ,it was as if someone had pressed the weight of the sun onto her chest, it filled her with an odd sense of fear and excitement along with something unfamiliar swelled in her, not dwelling on it the display of power vanished as soon as it came.

steeling herself she tensed legs and shot forward like a bolt of purple lightning ready to cut down this… dare she say God, before he could move from his spot, that's when she heard him shout and rocket forward even faster than her initial take off fully ready to clash with her, but despite her surprise at he display of power and speed she would not lose she had far to much to protect.

"MARVELOUS, HOW TRULY MARVELOUS!"Minaka shouted in utter elation as he watched the display of raw power that the blonde showed through one of the many monitors in his office, his face threatening to split from his smile.

"Minaka please. if you are ever gonna take anything seriously this would be the time." Takami spoke in a defeated tone a hollow look in her eyes as she watched this unknown boy? if she could even call him that, and their resident sekirei Queen rush towards each at mind numbing speed. what was happening right now? everything was in chaos the scientists and security personnel were scrambling to secure and reinforce the facility to try to mitigate the damage from the incoming fight between to monsters.

Takami sighed in defeat and placed her head in her hands and took a deep breath, trying to settle her nerves, 'god i wish i had a cigarette.' she then looked up when she heard several people rush into the, ready to snap at the the intruders she noticed the other members of the discipline burst into minaka's office.

"kazehana? what are you doing here?" that when she noticed the other two sekirei and and an unconscious karasuba slung over mutsu's shoulder her discipline uniform in tatters with a trickle of blood coming from her forehead and one hell of a bruise on the bloodthirsty crow's face.

takami immediately snapped out of her confusion snapping to mutsu.

"mutsu take her to takehito immediately!" she barked out to the tall, pale haired sekirei.

"yes ma'am." mutsu replied quickly but calmly, though she could see that the normally aloof man seemed rattled, she couldn't blame him though with what was happening especially with how Miya was reacting to the invader, the other two on the the hand were far more visibly shaken especially matsu considering she wasn't a combat type.

"Taka-!" kazehana was cut off when Takami held up a hand to stop the busty sekirei before she could get a full work out.

"kazehana please go check on the little ones and make sure they aren't panicking please." takami spoke in the most warm and motherly tone she could muster at the moment, the wind sekirei looked surprised for a moment before she nodded.

"understood." #3 quickly turned on her heel and walked briskly out of the office towards the "nursery" where her little siblings were staying, still slightly startled by the normally stern woman's gentle tone.

lastly takami turned to the redhead in the room giving her a soft smile which seemed to calm the young woman slightly.

"matsu i need you to black out any satellites that remained after the initial explosion, we can't have any more prying eyes than necessary, its bad enough that this is happening the last thing we need is those damn vultures to take advantage." as takami finished matsu nodded in understanding, turning to go leave the redhead stopped and placed her on the door frame turning to look back at the lead scientist.

"Will she be alright." matsu spoke her voice barely above a whisper, worry evident in her face and tone.

"yes, after all Miya's strength can't be measured by human understanding." takami spoke with a smile her eye's closed.

matsu nodded her head with a bit of relief as she left to the computer lab to do what she was best at, when she was out sight takami let out a breath she didn't know she was holding.

"… I'm sorry for lying matsu." she said with a frown marring her face, she then turned her head to look a minaka who had been strangely silent throughout all that.

"it's not like you to be so quite."

"Ah takami-kun i have to pay close attention otherwise i'll miss it" he spoke his smile no where to be seen as a look of pure focus settled on his face, that's when she noticed the monitors again it was only a brief flash but she saw if only for a moment streaks of gold and purple clashing violently on the island of the gods.

miya had to quickly jump back to avoid another of the blonds thunderous punches smashed the ground where she was standing the impact leaving a thirty foot wide crater in the earth, she had learned her lesson for her arrogance as her left arm hung limply at her side from when she tried to block initial swing, they had been fight for what felt like a day when i reality it had only been a handful of minutes, they only landed one significant blow on each other with her left arm being broken and the long gash that spread from his left shoulder to his right hip.

she clenched her jaw as they continued to parry and counter attack each other, he was an incredibly skilled fighter that was for certain, it had thrown her for a loop when she had cut him the first time, she had swung her totsuka blade with enough force to cut a battleship in half and only managed to leave a thin cut, how was his skin that strong? that first exchanged had cemented her belief, he was like her a being who existed outside the realm of human understanding.

that thought also brought a small amount fear with it she had never faced another being like her, but him on the hand it was clear that he had experience fighting powerful beings, the way he never let her get to much distance so she could fully swing her sword spoke volumes about that, had he fought other sword masters before?

it was frustrating she had intended to finish this in one blow but he had proved to be quite durable, her eyes widened when he took a swing at her head leaning backto avoid the devastating punch ready to counter attack, that's when she felt it a mountain of force crash into her face so much power she nearly blacked out right there, the purple haired queen was launched of her off her feet and barreling through a massive boulder and carving a trench into the earth behind it.

Naruto clasped to a knee after delivering the devastating blow to the red eyed beauty huffing in exhaustion as sage mode left him, Damn she was strong, sturdy to, he was in no way trying to kill he beat her ass yes but not kill, she even kept fight after shattering her arm but that punch should have put her out cold and hopefully she didn't have brain damage.

the last thing he needed to do was to check to see if she was still alive, forcing himself to his feet with monumental effort he began to slowly slog his way towards the downed woman a good two hundred feet away, and thats when he saw it.

"you gotta be fucking kidding me!?" the blonde shouted incredulously, he saw her the lavender haired demon lady slowly standing back up, her clothes in tatters the grey haori long since destroyed her uniform barely able to cover her modesty, she was littered in cuts the were slowly leaking blood her was disheveled but through all of that she was still holding her sword.'what a woman.' was the blondes thought though it quickly changed to concern when he saw how wounded she was.

"dammit i need to finish this she gonna kill her self if she keeps this up." naruto muttered as he grit his teeth pushing his last bit of chakra to his legs he dash forward hoping to get to her before she got her bearings.

groaning in agony miya slowly pulled herself form the rocks and debris putting all her weight on her sword to steady herself she hadn't been prepared for that attack whatever it was, the force had nearly crushed her skull had it been any other they would have had their head blow clean off their shoulders, lightly shaking the stars from her eyes she suddenly heard the crunch of fast approaching footsteps she barely had time to register the yellow missile heading towards her.

"wha?" came the confused response from the sekirei queen before she was tackled to the ground her totsuka flying out of her hand as she landed on her back with a squeak her one good hand quickly pinned above her head as a weight settled on her stomach, when her eyes came back into focus the first thing she saw was a pair of deep blue eyes staring into her own red orbs she quickly struggled to break free from his grip but found it to be far more difficult than she realized.

"stop, no more fighting you're hurt." came the response of her blonde captor, this only caused her to struggle more.

"i need… protect… them." she said between huffs 'ow' she definitely had broken ribs, it hurt to breath, ah her vision was getting dark. was… was she dying, no that couldn't be right? she was a goddess the sekirei pillar it was her duty to protect her little birds so they could their 'destined' one's, it couldn't end here,

naruto noticed the tears begin to prick at her eyes when he noticed her labored breathing, then it was his turn to panic when she coughed up a glob of blood as her eyes slowly started to loose the light.

"FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! KURAMA! SHE'S DYING!"naruto screamed as he jumped off her shit! why i didn't he pull his punch a bit more?! she didn't deserve to die like this!

"NARUTO! CALM DOWN AND THINK!" The fox roared at his parter, panicking would do no good here.

"shit!" naruto yelled as he clutched his hair sure she tried to kill him she was just protecting her home, that's when an idea flickered in his head.

"kurama how much chakra do we have left?!"quickly asking the tailed beast.

" about as much as a genin." the fox told already knowing where this was going.

"that's going to have to work, we need to sync up its the only way to save her." his tone left no room for argument, they were partners but this wasn't up for discussion he caused this he would fix it.

"Heh leave it to you to be dramatic fine, but using six paths sage right now is going to put you out for a while, and after this i'm going to need to rest for a long while."the fox said that but he was grinning all the while leave to this idiot to keep life entertaining.

"ready?"the fox asked his one and only friend.

"yeah." Naruto nodded his head as that clapped their hands together simultaneously, Naruto's body took on a fiery golden aura as he donned his six paths cloak.

"naruto… there's something i need to tell you before we do this" he spoke slowly trying to find the right words to say but finding it difficult given the gravity of the situation.

"it's ok kurama i know, i felt as soon as i entered six paths mode, we're not home anymore are we?" he let out a mirthless chuckle.

"i'm sorry naruto, truly i am sorry." kurama sounded somber when he spoke know how this would affect his friend.

"it's okay buddy, i made a promise and i don't have any intention of going back on it ill find a way home i swear, besides shinobi are those who endure right kurama?"naruto said smiling, his face turned to look at the fast fading woman below him.

"I'll save you i swear, even if you hate me I'll save you, beside some who fought so hard to protect their home cant be all bad right?" he grinned at that while he gently lifted her head into the crook of his left arm, while he softly placed his right hand on her chest and closed his eyes to concentrate.

"naruto that may heal most her injuries but she will still need help breathing." the fox stated

at that the blondes cheeks colored but nodded as he closed his eyes again and lowered his mouth to her's.

" I hope she wont be to mad at me for this." he muttered as his lips met her,that's when he felt it as if though his chakra had intimately intertwined with her energy core, but he was so focused on healing the poor woman he didn't notice the ten massive gold and purple wings sprout from her back nor the way her eyes shot open in shock, the wings soon faded as naruto removed his lips from her's as he opened his eyes only to met with the startled red orbs of the woman he nearly killed then saved.

"Sorry about that, but i'm spent please don't kill me in my sleep." he chuckled as he blacked out not a second later, slumping next to where the stunned woman lay his head hitting against the soft dirt.

miya slowly turned her head in utter disbelief, the man she had tried to kill the man that very nearly killed her had saved her life when he could have very easily let her die, he had healed her with what little energy he had left, And he had accidentally winged her in the process and he didn't even seem to notice.

Her eyes widened again as the thought ran through her man again and again she got winged that shouldn't have been possible! she was the pillar no one should have possessed the strength to do something so extraordinary! No, that wasn't right this man next to her was no mere human he possessed power akin to herself but he was no sekirei he was something else, she would find out when he awoke.

Then it hit her she didn't know his name! no that wasn't right that would be the first thing she would find out when he awoke but for now she would wait by her ashikabi… ashikabi, she had an ashikabi! with what little strength she had left she used her good arm to grab her destined one's hand.

"My ashikabi." was the last thing she said when faded to unconsciousness a small smile gracing her face the first smile she had since she woke up in her ship 10 years ago.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Sekirei #01 has been winged." takami said numbly as she nearly fell back in her chair a vacant expression on her face, she could only stare at the screen in front of her, then that sound of clapping caught her ear as she mechanically turned her head to the source only to see minaka clapping in a grandiose way.

"Marvelous how truly, truly marvelous" his smile had returned but there was and unreadable expression in his eyes.
