Story Start!
Rias Gremory.
A beautiful young woman, and she had a beautiful loving family that was growing with each new addition that she added to it. She had a bad habit of adopting stray people into her family as servants, but the fact would remain that she loved them as if they were own blood regardless of their background.
She was kind to all of her servants, but she was even more kind to the ones that she found cute.
"Woah... this statue is kind of creepy."
"Please don't refer to Zaza disrespectfully, this statue has been a big part of Demon culture for hundreds of years." Rias gently lectured her Queen. She was proud that it was part of her family for the current 20 year rotation. "Look at his pecs, look at those boulder shoulders, and his abs... this is an ancient statue, but it portrays the beauty of man in such a detailed way." Rias was a lover of the art that came with this perfectly created statue.
It was made with so much skill that it was like the statue had once been a person, and legend said that it was a sealed Demon God. The energy the statue gave off was the highest quality, pure and gentle though, unlike that of her species.
She was a beautiful girl.
She had also admired this statue since she had been a baby, she would play on the statue and she often got in trouble for painting the statue when she was even younger. She had been forced to clean the statue whenever she painted it, which she did often enough because she had fun both painting and cleaning the statue. She liked to paint the eyes blue and the hair blond, since those colors seemed like the right colors for this kind and gentle face.
"Boulder shoulders?" Akeno Himejima asked.
They were nicely shaped shoulders, they were the shoulders of a strong warrior that could really pack a punch. They weren't the biggest, but the lean muscle on the statue was the perfect combination of size and power. It had the power of big muscle, but the flexibility of small muscle, a good fighting combo. Whoever made this statue must have been in love with warriors, though she didn't know much about the statue.
"... Shut up, I wasn't trying to make a joke."
"Okay."
"Anyway, this is Zaza... I figured we could have some fun reading." Rias didn't know what the statue was actually named, so she gave it the name Zaza. It was a rather creative nickname since the statue was very exotic to her species, despite being with them for many hundreds of years now.
Akeno just looked at the statue.
'His features are very kind and gentle, he looks like a fine man.' Akeno just thought that as she noticed Rias reach out and touch the cheek of the statue. "So... you really like this statue?" Akeno asked with a raised eyebrow. She was still getting used to life as a demon, but even before Rias got to the statue, she saw the statue being treated very carefully by some maids.
Rias reached into her pocket and took out a flower, before she placed it in the hand's of the statue, and Akeno just watched as the flower bloomed right then and there.
"This statue is important to my people, it's got a bloody history of humans killing each other for it, it's stained in so much blood... but doesn't he look so... gentle, kind... loving?" Rias could only feel the whisker marks etched into the cheeks of the statue. She could feel warmth from the statue, and looking at the features, the warmth it gave off, and the strong power it had, she could only imagine what kind of personality it would have if it was a real person. "This is the kind of man I wish I could fall in love with."
"Rock hard?"
"... Stop that." Rias frowned for a moment, before she allowed herself to laugh at the joke. "Determined, strong, steadifast, loving and kind... the kind of man who would follow me to hell and back, carrying the world on his shoulders. This pure and warm power it radiates, it just fills... everyone with warmth and comfort... like you can put your faith in this statue." Rias was like the rest of her species.
The statue was just that, a statue, but it gave off an aura of a man that you wanted to believe in. This statue showed the beauty of humanity, and it was captured in such a way that it was like the statue with alive with love.
"Hmmm?" Akeno thought about that.
It was JUST a statue, even if it was enchanted to give off an aura, but she could understand why Rias wanted a man who gave off the same feeling as the statue. She could feel that if this statue was a man, that he would look best with a smile on his face. She didn't exactly care for men that much, but if she had to pick a man for herself, she would pick a man that looked good smiling a lot. She could imagine this aura belonging to a man that loved to smile, and bring smiles to others.
"This is a nice place to relax, and I figured you would like to see this statue, we only have it for a few more years before we have to give it to the next Pillar family." Rias sighed in disappointment, since she would be waiting centuries before she could claim the statue again once it was lost to her.
Oh well.
"I see."
"What are you doing?" Rias asked as she looked at Akeno sit down in the statue's lap, and she wrapped her legs around the statue. Akeno looked at her, and she sent Rias a teasing smile as she pushed her face towards the statue's face. "... what are you doing?" Rias asked again, even more confused since it looked like Akeno was going to kiss the statue.
"Reading sounds kind of boring, but doesn't it seem like this is the perfect chance to practice kissing?"
Akeno would rather take this chance to tease Rias than read a book. It was a statue after all, so it wasn't like kissing it would count for real. The statue had such well designed lips that it would give some real experience though, so she kissed the statue in front of Rias. She locked eyes with Rias as she did so.
-Inside Naruto's Mind-
"Is feels like something is touching my lap, waist, and face... damnit, I wish I could use Senjutsu right now to sense stuff." Naruto was so busy trying to break free that he couldn't allow himself to use Senjutsu. If he did, then he would have to start all over again, and that would take a LONG time to get rid of the extra chakra.
His sense of touch was almost completely back now, so he could feel somebody touching him at the moment, just like he felt it when somebody would brush or clean his statue form.
-Outside-
"Hmmmm... you're such a good kisser Zaza-san."
"Akeno... you don't just practice kissing on the Demon God statue... that is very inappropriate." Rias had to admit that it looked a little fun. Either way, she grabbed Akeno by the back of her clothes and pulled her off of the statue and right onto her butt. She had red cheeks from the very thought of doing it herself.
She would die of embarassment if somebody caught her doing it, it wouldn't be the first embarassing moment of her life, but it would rank right up there.
Just DIE of embarassment, even more so if the rest of her peerage saw her kissing the statue. It was bad enough that Akeno had done it, but if Gasper, Yuuto, or Koneko saw her did it or saw her do it, she would be the butt of every joke.
"Spoilsport."
"It's inappropriate."
-Later that Night-
"This is so inappropriate."
Rias felt like a hypocrite as she snuck into the courtyard and sat in the statue's lap just like Akeno had before her. She pulled her hair out of her face as she pushed her forehead up against the statue's forehead. She looked out of the corners of her eye to make sure that nobody could see what was going on.
Rias was VERY well endowed with a good chest, just slightly smaller than Akeno's own chest, and she pushed it up against the statue. It felt nice on her boobs to be pressed up like this in a gentle way.
She kissed the statue.
*CRACK*
Rias JUMPED off the statue instantly when she felt a piece of stone hit her in the face, and she saw part of the statue crack in front of her.
"Oh shit, oh crap, oh shit, oh crap..." Rias had tears in her eyes already forming from sheer panic as she looked at the crack that appeared right across the statue's great face. She was frozen in place with fear of what would happen to her when everyone found out that she broke the statue that had been cherished by her race for hundreds of years now. "I'm in so much trouble." Rias whispered as the crack spread.
Cracks started to appear all over the statue.
The stone hand shattered, revealing a fresh new hand underneath it. The statue's right hand gripped tightly as cracks started to spread up the arm, before the entire right arm shattered and revealed a flesh and blood arm. The right arm grabbed the head of the statue and shattered half of the face, revealing a person's face underneath it. An eye opened and Rias' blue eyes made eye contact with the joy filled eyes of the statue as more of the statue started to break and turn into flesh and blood.
The statue's legs moved and shattered, with the final part of the statue being left as stone now just being half the face. That was taken care of moments later though when he punched himself in the stone face and shattered the last of his barrier.
...
Naruto exhaled the breath that had been in his lungs when he turned to stone, a breath so ancient and filled with chakra that it was an absolute joy for him to get rid of it. The exhale that was the proof of his seemingly endless torment.
He didn't breath in yet, he wanted to savor it.
"He's... you're..."
Naruto breathed in and savored every second of his first breath as a free man, and he loved every second of it. He could taste the quality of the air, he could feel his lungs getting filled up with the thing that he hadn't been able to do in so long. He sucked in ALL the air that his lungs could hold, and he held his breath so he could savor the feeling even more.
"I'M FREE!"
Naruto shouted at the top of his lungs, as long as he possibly could shout. So loud that lights started to turn on all around the Gremory estate in response to his shout. Rias jumped back in surprise, a blush forming on her face.
"True love's kiss." Rias whispered as she covered her smile with her hands.
She kissed him and broke the spell keeping him sealed.
[False: Naruto broke himself free, it was a coincidence]
"Hahahahahahahaha!" Naruto laughed as tears streamed down his cheeks. He was so happy that his joy overflowed from his body as tears of happiness. He doubled over and held his gut, because his years of suffering in his own personal hell were over.
He was no longer in hell.
[False: Naruto is currently in Hell right now]
That lonely hell where he was all alone, he was free and able to interact with people once more. His years of hope had not been in vain, he was finally a free man able to do things once more. Naruto stood up straight and wiped the tears from his cheeks.
...
So overwhelmed with joy, Naruto did the only thing that made sense.
He passed out, enjoying his first nap in an uncountable number of years, falling onto his back with the most satisfied expression he could possibly have. Naruto left Rias alone to her thoughts as she looked at the great statue that once was, and how the great statue was now a person that was taking a nap where the statue had previously been.
"Zzzzzzzzz."
Naruto was blissfully asleep.
