Story Start!
"The Demon God statue?"
"Yes young man... this statue is possessed by the God of Demons, and it's history of one of great bloodshed... but if you are worthy, you can awaken the Sleeping Demon God, and bring forth a great change to the world."
Ajuka didn't believe in a lot of nonsense, but this seemed like it could be a legit claim by this old woman as she tried to sell the statue next to her. He had heard of this statue many times, the statue was older than recorded human history. It was drawn on cave paintings, it was in a lot of old paintings, there were monk scriptures about this statue, and many people who gained wealth only to lose their lives to bloodshed had possessed this very statue.
The statue had an extremely powerful lifeforce.
He could sense an energy very unlike anything he had ever sensed before, and the old woman before him placed a flower bud on the statue's open hands. The flower bloomed right then and there.
"The Demon God... this statue feels very... kind, and bright... and sunny. Doesn't feel like a demon god." Ajuka didn't believe in nonsense, not when he could feel how pure and bright the energy produced by the statue was. It was extremely powerful, the energy seemed like it could be endless, but the face of the statue told a different story.
It was a statue of a 16 year old boy.
He had kind, loving features, and he gave off pure energy that felt like sunshine. To say that this was a demon god statue would have to be purely based off of the history that humans had created for this statue.
He was Ajuka, a demon after all.
"I assure you, this statue is the real thing. The previous owner of the statue had his entire family killed, and his home village burned to the ground. I'll sell this statue to you, I have no need for it... and for free I'll give you a prophecy about the statue."
"A prophecy... are you a seer old woman?" Ajuka did believe in fortune telling, since it was based in magic. It was a very rare magic, but magic all the same. He was a man of science after all.
"Ajuka, what is this?" A red haired young man came over to him and pat his shoulder.
They were suppose to be getting contracts with humans.
"It's a Demon God statue, and it comes with a prophecy if we buy it." Ajuka spoke to his friend. They were only stepping foot on human soil so that they could gain experience and power, so that they could fight in the war against their own people.
Sirzechs leaned forward.
"Doesn't look like a demon god... looks like a guy I would love to be friends with!" Sirzechs noted with a large grin.
This man statue had such kind and loving features, and the energy it gave off was so warm and comforting. This seemed less like a demon god statue, and more like the statue of a loving young man with a heart of gold. He should know, he was a demon and his own people's energy felt nothing like this.
...
"HOLY crap, I recognize this statue!" Sirzechs recoiled after a moment.
This statue had started and destroyed entire civilizations, well it helped to start them, but other humans who were overcome by desire for the statue destroyed them. History books talked about the greatness of this statue, and how it was cursesd to destroy those who sought it for selfish gain. That was human myth of the statue at the very least, but it was an extremely well known statue amongst those who lived in the supernatural world.
"I know... so how much are you selling it for?!" Sirzechs leaned forward and asked the woman.
He wanted this so much!
Humans needed to have this statue removed from their world and tucked away somewhere safe, it was far too much temptation for them. Not to mention humans who relied on the statue had no need for demons in their lives.
"I need not your money, instead, I wish for you to pay WITH YOUR LIVES!"
The elderly woman might have been joking with them.
...
It wasn't funny.
"Okay then." Ajuka cut his palm open and poured his blood on top of the woman's head in response to her statement. The woman stared at him in shock, before she signed and stood up. "You're not going to make us pay money, because that would mean you would be affected by the statue's curse... so you want us to pay in blood so that you never get killed by those seeking the statue." Ajuka knew what she meant those. He could see the fear of the statue and it's history in her eyes.
"She wasn't joking?" Sirzechs asked.
"... You, with the red hair... do you have a younger sister?" The seer asked as she pointed a finger at him.
"No?" Sirzechs couldn't say he had any siblings.
"Red hair, I predict that one day, red hair will become important to awakening the demon god from his sleep, and spreading peace or destruction across this world. Red hair, and a boy with hair like the sun, and eyes like the sky... a pure maiden who seeks to escape her fate... red hair will cause the salvation or destruction of your world... your species!" The seer changed her wording as she pointed a finger at Sirzechs.
The man was just plain confused.
He didn't have any siblings, and red hair was the stable of his family. The fact that she singled them out as demons was kind of shocking, but since he had no siblings he was a little non-believing of this prophecy.
"Cool... doom or salvation statue." Ajuka just took the news with a grain of salt.
"Yeah, it's pretty fun."
-Hundred of Years Later-
"Cool... doom or salvation statue for real." Ajuka stated as he stared at little baby Rias in her cradle, with Sirzechs standing next to him. He was staring lovingly at his sister, a smile on his face as he watched over her.
"That old lady predicted I would have a sister... we should really go visit her grave and apologize. We've been mocking her prophecy for hundreds of years now." Sirzechs had to admit, that now he was starting to remember the prophecy. "To think, we only even went to that town to collect contracts with a powerful person that we sensed." Sirzechs would admit that they went to that town because they sensed a powerful energy calling to them.
They hoped to use it during the war.
Instead, they found themselves with a legendary blood statue.
"I still don't believe in prophecy though, considering your parents are horny rabbits, it was only a matter of how many centuries it took before they had a daughter." Ajuka still didn't believe in the prophecy of some mad woman. He was just going to joke about it until this statue somehow stopped being a statue.
Though, to be fair, the bloody history of the statue had caused them to take some precautions against it repeating that history in their world. They allowed each of the pillar families to use the statue for 20 years before the next pillar family would take the statue, and it just so happened that it now came to the Gremory family during the coincidence that they had a daughter.
Pure coincidence.
-Inside Naruto's Mind-
"Bwaaaaaaah..." Naruto didn't know what was worse.
The fact that he got his sense of touch back, or the fact he got his sense of touch back and was unable to move a muscle more than the smallest twitch. Well, he got a sense of touch but it was so small that he might as well be feeling things through a blanket. He had been trying to push the Senjutsu chakra out of his system for a long time now.
He was able to create small enough movements to no longer be connected to nature at the very least, so the nature energy was fading from his system.
He had hope.
-Naruto's Statue-
It was impossible for the normal person to tell.
A small amount of stone chipped off of the statue as one of the fingers twitched so very slightly.
-Back in Naruto's Back-
"... It's going to be weird... not being a Jinchuriki... not having Kurama's chakra inside of me anymore. I actually kind of hope that I can see that fuzzy bastard again... first things first, take a breath of fresh air... then... I have no goals other than that... so this is what it feels like to have hope to escape hell."
Naruto had been stuck in his own personal hell.
He hated being alone more than anything, and he had been spending countless years in complete solitute.
Not counting the stupid, fucking, crow that would come into the room and peck him, and then fly off into the golden clouds.
"My name... is Naruto Uzuchiha... Naruto Uzumaki... I should stop working on what I will say to the first person I meet." Naruto stopped laying down in his own mind and sat up. He was going to break free of his hell, and he knew that the first person he met was going to have their mind blown by how awesome his introduction was.
Then.
Then he was going to work on regaining his lost memories.
