Hi again! Thank you guys so much! Im still hyped about all the positivity this story has gotten. We're already over 200 Follows and Favourites! That's insane! It hasn't even been 24 hours yet!
Like last time I will be responding to some reviews but I got nearly 20 of them so some may be left out and I'll try to cut down on the length of some of my replies as a few reviews did mention the lengthiness of the last chapters response section. Now onward to Reviews!
Sandman001: Maybe~ Maybe not~
dfriel1996: Thank you, I was hoping another chapter would have that effect and im glad you enjoyed it! I did put special care into how Zeoticus acted in Chapter 2 because I did want to show that. Also yes I will have peerage members from other Manga/Anime.
X-ownz: I did the stuttering around Zeoticus to show that even if he is mature, Naruto is still a ten year old boy. One who hasn't spent much time with his father in 2 years as well.
Guest Reviewer: Yasaka and Kunou will be a part of the story though not for a while and I'm still deliberating on their over all significance so look forward to that! :P
shadow-luminaire: Dr. Strange type magic circles may be cool and I might implement them in another character but the magic circles I have considered for Naruto have been the basis of this story in my head, since its conception. Sorry to say.
HolyKnight5: That would be fun to write XD but so far if something like that DID happen, it would happen in the Canon timeframe so a little bit of waiting may be necessary.
Devilish Reader(Guest): First of all I'd like to say, beautiful name, I wonder where the inspiration came from?~ But to reply to your actual review, that was my original idea and one that has spanned multiple stories that I thought of even before this one. So don't worry, that will happen.
cruzcartoon: My plans for him do involve some amazing magic XD also some of your suggestions have been taken into consideration.
Shadow overlord279: thank you and that's actually why I decided to put OC's in his peerage
Dark-Star217: thank you for the compliments and ill try to do more describing XD
The Guy: To answer your question. Yes, that is my eventual plan for her. Also ill look at your suggestions
Shanandre765: She's an OC I created
Now with the Review Replies out of the way. ONTO THE NEXT CHAP!

Natsumi's fox ear twitched as she glared lowly at the two new peerage member's that Naruto had gotten a few days ago. A female wolf spirit, who ended up becoming his Knight, a year younger than her and Naruto with silver hair and fur, and a male human, who was also a Knight with a sacred gear that allowed him to channel lightning through anything he touched, that had brown hair and onyx eyes. As far as sacred gears went, it was no Longinus but it wasn't exactly weak either.
"Ah apologies Naruto-sama" The new Knight spat with a hard glare as he 'accidentally' spilled tea over Naruto's notebook.
Naruto sighed at the barely concealed hatred that Ken had towards him, he just couldn't understand where it had come from though. He had reincarnated both him and Sayuri when they were near death due to malnutrition and injuries. Though while Sayuri seemed to be thankful, Ken absolutely despises him.
"Ken. Can you go get me a towel?" He asked softly and with a scoff the brown haired boy turned on his heel and walked out of the room.
Hearing Natsumi walk up next to him and let out an uncharacteristic snort he tilted his head back to look at the girl. Upon doing so he raised an eyebrow as she blushed a fairly solid shade of red and tried to stand straighter and appear more proper like Grayfia.
"Do you understand his behaviour?" He asked the girl softly, Ken's attitude obviously weighing heavily on his mind.
"S-sadly I don't N-naruto-sama" She mumbled, staring at the door intensely even with her nervous stutter.
Naruto grunted and stood up while flicking through his notebook, trying to see the damage the spilt tea had caused before growling in anger and throwing the now ruined book in the bin next to his desk, flicking his hand after doing so to try and get some of the tea off of it.
"I spent weeks on that research" He mumbled dejectedly.
Natsumi, upon seeing his slightly dejected expression growled lowly in her throat before going to grab his hand. Unfortunately, before she could, a sudden bout of nervousness made her flinch back before she did so and coughed lightly to get his attention instead.
"I-I believe Venelana-sama will be calling y-you for dinner soon. Would you like me to g-go get Sayuri-san a-and Ken as well?" She asked and at Naruto's nod she left the room in search of the two Knights.
After asking around for some maid's who had giggled mysteriously when she had said that "Naruto-sama would like them to join at dinner" she eventually found Sayuri doing some training drills in a garden just outside the Mansion.
"S-sayuri-san. Dinner is ready. N-naruto-sama wanted me to come tell you. D-do you know the way?" She asked the wolf spirit who stepped into her personal space and took a deep whiff of her.
Blushing as red as her masters hair Natsumi only managed to stutter out something unintelligible in embarrassment before Sayuri stood back to her full height and grinned roguishly with a wink.
"I know how to find him now~ Thanks for the help taichou!" She stated confidently as she sauntered away from the nearly over-heating kitsune girl.
Puffing up her cheeks in embarrassment she made her way to where she knew Ken would be from the eight or so other times that he pulled this particular stunt. Said stunt being that he would say that he would do something for Naruto and then completely blow off the task and go to the library.
Reaching the library she walked in without reservation and saw Ken nose deep in a book as usual, though for some reason the amount of books surrounding Devil anatomy and peerages filled her with concern. Stomping her foot to get his attention she smiled far too innocently.
"Those are some interesting books you're reading. Those topics catch your interest?" She asked innocently, her typical nervous stutter seemingly obliterated as she stood alone in the library with the boy.
"Oh? It's the shy Queen. Tell me, do you even remember who you were before that Devil forced this personality on you?" He asked nastily as he stood up and Natsumi felt her smile strain.
"I'm afraid I don't know what you mean Ken" She began innocently, tapping her bottom lip with her finger in an action she had seen Rias do at dinner two days ago.
"Of course you don't" He spat angrily "Must be his devil magic, probably too strong for your pathetic mind to handle" He snarled in anger.
"Are you trying to say that Naruto-sama has brainwashed me for his own benefit?" She asked, unknowingly beginning to release the barest amount of Killing Intent (KI).
"Of course! He's a devil! He forced us to become devils as well! Are you saying you wanted that!? You wanted to become something hated by everything in existence!? To be forced to become the personification of evil for some twisted assholes own agenda's!?" He yelled at the Queen who's smile dropped off of her face and left two frozen golden glaciers in place of her eyes.
"I'd be careful how you speak about Naruto-sama. Old devils were like that but not him, he didn't save you for such purposes. Though he shouldn't have saved you at all" She spoke in a frosty tone that spoke of imminent danger.
Ken ignored that and grabbed a plain kitchen knife out of his pocket, a fairly weak electrical current pulsing to life around it as he glared at the kitsune girl. Said kitsune girl coating in her hands in a dark red flame that all kitsune knew instinctually, Kitsune Bi, and glared right back at the boy.
As things were just about to come to blows a maid stepped in before jumping in fright and yelping loudly. Causing both of them to shut off their powers and turn towards the frightened maid. Natsumi blushed as she realised what she had just been caught doing.
"L-l-l-lord G-g-gremory s-says dinner i-i-is ready" The poor maid chattered out in fear.
With a snarl, Ken stomped past the terrified maid while Natsumi quickly followed, sending an apologetic look towards the maid and then following straight after Ken. Standing right behind him and watching his every move with careful eyes

Naruto looked subtly between Natsumi and Ken as even with his limited social skills he could feel the animosity between the two and sighed as his family kept staring at him. The stares making him shrink into his seat, as much as he wished for more time with his family this was a it too much for the young boy.
"Ah, Naruto-kun" Venelana spoke up and internally sighed as her sons head snapped in her direction with a confused look "Your father and I have been speaking and tomorrow we'll be taken you and Rias and your peerages to get your familiars"
Naruto sat stock still, his features stuck on a mixture of confusion, surprise and elation while Rias stood up and whooped in joy. Natsumi giggled at her master and his sisters reaction, turning towards her newest peerage allies she snickered at Sayuri's plain confused expression. Ken's reaction though sapped all of her joy from her as her enhanced eyesight took notice of his elated expression and the darkening of his eyes as they passed over Naruto. A large knot formed in her stomach and she knew then, beyond any shadow of a doubt that she couldn't allow him to become any stronger. If he even thought about harming Naruto, the boy who gave her a home, a pseudo-family, the chance to be trained from one of the strongest females in existence and the chance to help others like her….If he even thought about harming Naruto she would destroy him down to the last cell.

Naruto looked around the Familiar Forest with a childish sense of awe, hidden under a layer of thin composure but it was still there. Rias, Akeno and Sayuri just had plain childish awe, Koneko looked around with a blank look on her face and while Natsumi and Ken did marvel in awe, one was busy trying to think of the strongest familiar he could possibly get while the other was thinking of protecting Naruto from Ken.
"Rias-sama and her peerage will be going with Sirzechs-sama who…..insisted he come to watch Rias get he familiar" Grayfia explained to the group of kids, Naruto felt his awed feeling slowly die away like a deflating balloon until it disappeared.
Sirzechs seems to have noticed Naruto's unhappy mood and nervously chuckled and waved at the boy who kept his face perfectly non-expressive as he turned back to Grayfia.
"While I will be taking Naruto-sama and his peerage to look for their familiars" Grayfia finished and nodded to the peerage in question who followed after her, Natsumi being careful to place herself between Ken and Naruto at all times.
Of course no matter how subtle any of them were, they were still children and Grayfia could see the tension like it wasn't masked at all. As Grayfia sidled up next to Natsumi to speak to her she froze.
BOOM!
Snapping her head upwards, the silver haired maid raised an eyebrow as she noticed storm clouds quickly covering the sky above them and swirling around a central point….above Ken.
In an instantaneous flash of lightning the five devils were greeted by the sight of a bird covered in lightning flapping right in front of Ken. Staring directly into the young boys eyes as the very air around it crackled. Grayfia frowned as she noticed the gleam in the boys eyes as he slowly reached a hand out, she had seen that look before, pure and utter anger with a very unhealthy mixture of madness. She had seen it during the Civil War enough to know that if left alone the boy would cause enormous strife. Looking down at Natsumi and her nervous yet hardened expression, Grayfia knew that Natsumi realised, even if only subconsciously, exactly how dangerous Ken is.
"Alright Ken. If the thunderbird accepts you, do you remember the chant?" Grayfia asked as Ken placed his hand on the blue thunderbird's head. Grinning maniacally when nothing negative happened to him before turning and glaring at the Queen.
"Yes." He snarled "I remember the chant" With that said he began chanting, a red magic circle appearing between his palm and the thunderbird.
*whimper*
Naruto's head snapped around, unseen as everyone else payed attention to the thunderbird and Ken. Turning the rest of his body he slowly walked towards where he thought he had heard the sound.
*whimper*
'There!' he yelled mentally as he started running towards the whimpers he heard, his young mind having already categorised it as a canine animal. Running through the woodlands he placed a palm on a log while hopping over it to push himself further and continued running, seeing a ledge up ahead and being too close to stop without falling he continued running and luckily only dropped a few meters. Hitting the ground in a roll he popped back onto his feet only to see the animal which he had heard. Eye's widening in surprise he allowed himself to catch his breath as he marvelled over the sleek black fur and large claws.
"Cerberus" He breathed out, astonished, before the rational side of his mind took over "No. A Cerberus, not the Cerberus. Maybe an experiment? Genetic malfunction?" He wondered to himself as he walked over to the large three headed dog, all three heads looking like a German Shepherd, which even with its large size (being a meter tall even while lying on its stomach) he could tell it was a puppy.
As he looked over the canine he noticed why it was whimpering, a large, demonic looking leech was attached to its side. The very thing was as large as his head! Aiming carefully he activated a basic fireball spell, as the Magic Circle whirled into existence he quickly modified it, something he had learnt to do after countlessly spamming the spell and learning almost all of its intricacies.
The Fireball spell roared to life as the characters within the outer rings randomly changed before settling into an almost completely different pattern to the regular spell and out of the Magic Circle came a flame so hot it turned blue, which when it struck the leech killed it instantly.
Smiling widely at performing one of his very few modified spells correctly he looked at the Cerberus which already looked healthier as it slowly stood up. Naruto raised his head as the Cerberus stood up and found it to be almost three times taller than him when standing at its full height. Tensing his body as the large creature lowered its three heads down to his level and stared at him before licking him with its oversized tongue which made Naruto sputter as some slobber got in his mouth.
"Thankful?" He asked softly and got another lick in return "Would you like to become my familiar?" He asked the three-headed creature who seemed to think about it for a moment before nodding.
Little did he know that by doing this his future just got a whole lot more interesting.

Grayfia was the first to notice Naruto's disappearance, not surprising as Sayuri was looking frantically around them to see if she could find a spirit for herself and Natsumi hadn't taken her eyes off the smug form of Ken who had the Thunderbird flying slightly above and behind him.
Subtly looking around for her King's younger brother she picked up her pace subconsciously, extending her senses she sighed in relief as she felt the customary spike in magic that occurred when a devil made a familiar pact. Though she was slightly surprised by the size of the magic spike, wondering what creature he made a pact with that made the pact give off such a large spike.
"It seems Naruto-sama has made an interesting familiar" Grayfia muttered loud enough for the three kids with her to hear.
All three heads snapped towards her. Sayuri in intrigue and confusion. Ken in confusion and anger and Natsumi in confusion followed by horror as she realised that she had been so focused on Ken getting a familiar that she had completely lost track of her King. Following after Grayfia they all saw some trees toppling ahead of them, whatever it was, was moving towards them as well and considering this is the direction Naruto was in it as a safe assumption to guess that it was Naruto's familiar which was causing the damage.
"W-what familiar did you get Naruto-sama?" Natsumi asked herself in awe as the saw the fairly large trees fall over like they weren't hundreds of years old.
Ken gritted his teeth in anger 'Of course the devil would get something capable of that much destruction. Just like those monsters who destroyed the orphanage' He thought, unbidden, images of one of the orphanage mothers' skin melting off flashed through his mind.
As Naruto and his Cerberus came into view even Grayfia stared in shock at the small (though tall for his age) boy sitting on the middle head of the large canine. Looking down the boy smiled slightly and patted the head he was sitting on.
"Meet Tri" He said in a soft voice full of pride and happiness. Natsumi squealed so loud in excitement/happiness for her King that everyone had to cover their ears.

It had been a few days since they had visited the familiar forest and everyone other than Natsumi had gained a familiar. Sayuri also had far too much fun making the young Queen blush in embarrassment by constantly bringing up 'The Tri Squeal'. Now, in front of Natsumi stood Naruto and in front of him stood the three massive warehouses that had a combined area of 46,500 square meters (roughly 500,000 square feet for you imperial users). Sayuri whistled in appreciation at the three massive buildings which completely dwarfed the four children.
"How many stories is that?" Sayuri asked Naruto in surprised as she craned her head up "It has to be a least 3" She commented resolutely.
"Four, actually" Naruto muttered as he walked forward and opened the door to the middle one and walked through.
As the four person peerage walked into the warehouse three of them marvelled at how it somehow seemed larger from the inside than from the outside while the fourth just grinned evilly while keeping his eyes locked on the back of Naruto's head.
Pulling out his notebook Naruto began scribbling into it, causing Natsumi to walk up next to him to see what he was doing.
"w-what are y-you writing Naruto-sama?" She asked curiously.
"Notes on where to put things and how to use this space effectively" He replied as he continued scribbling notes down before looking around.
Natsumi raised an eyebrow as he did and turned to look where he was looking.
"W-what are you l-looking at Naru-" Before she could finish she was cut off as the sound of lightning filled the air and caused both her and Naruto to turn around.
Naruto had only just felt the pulse of magic before he heard the lightning and as he turned around he saw a lightning covered cleaver flying towards his head and only just managed to move his head back enough to not take a lethal injury. Instead the cleaver left a deep cut along his cheek, not deep enough to leave a scar though. Screaming in pain as the overcharged lightning that coated the cleaver entered his body when it sliced him he felt his right leg and left arm go numb and crumpled to the ground as his muscles tensed painfully.
Natsumi growled in anger and pounced at Ken who had already jumped forward with two more lightning coated cleavers in an attempt to kill Naruto. Tackling him with all the power of a speeding bus and forcing him into the cement as they skidded to a halt she coated her hands in Kitsune Bi fire and tried to strike him only for her fire covered hands to be blocked by the flats of his lightning covered cleavers.
"Why did you harm Naruto-sama!?" She roared as she increased the output of her flames which caused him to do the same with his lightning.
"He's a devil! If it wasn't for him and his kind there would be no sin! No death!" He growled right back, the image of the orphanage mother burning to death flashing through his mind "And I know I'm not strong enough to take out the Maou's but even killing one devil is enough! I'll be able to free you and that wolf from his influence!" From the sidelines poor, conflicted and confused Sayuri flinched "Even killing one devil is enough for her to forgive me from the afterlife!" He yelled, confusing the fox girl enough that he could momentarily overpower her and managed to zap her in her side which was unprotected by her fire.
The unfortunate ten year old screamed in pain as the boy threw her off of him and rushed Naruto, who now had motor function back and was glaring at him. Upon reaching Naruto the once human boy jumped in the air and brought his arm down, using gravity to add extra force to his blow. Knocking Ken's arm to the side and unbalancing him with a palm strike to his forearm Naruto followed it up with a punch to Ken's chest which struck solidly and caused the boy to wince. Growling in anger the brown haired youth tapped into the 'vile' power of the Knight piece he was reincarnated with to speed up his movements and attack Naruto with a flurry of electrocuted cleaver strikes and the occasional other melee move which Naruto managed to only just stay ahead of. Cursing as his leg buckled from the fatigue of the earlier electrocution and having never properly trained his body he stared as the two cleavers drew closer in fear.
"NARUTO-SAMA!" Natsumi screamed in panic.
Everyone in the warehouse felt it, the sudden increase in Natsumi's magic. Natsumi herself felt like her body was on fire as she levelled her gaze on Ken, the world having suddenly seemed to slow down. In a blur of motion Natsumi launched herself from her position and before anyone else could properly process it had her fist in Ken's cheek, sending him flying away from Naruto who hit the ground with a groan and slowly stood back up.

Sayuri stood frozen in her original position, her brain furiously trying to keep up with the events that had just happened.
'Naruto was so nice, why had Ken attacked? Naruto was influencing them? No. That's Ken's delusions. Why are they attacking each other?' She thought mutely as she watched the events unfold. Her brain not allowing her body to act as she stared helplessly.
She turned to her head towards Natsumi when she felt the increase in magical pressure and was so surprised when she blurred forward and nailed Ken hard enough to knock him away that only one thought was able to process through her brain.
'Two tails?'
XXXxxxXXX
Hearing a growl of anger they turned towards Ken to see a dark aura surrounding him, his muscles bulging and convulsing as lightning crackled around his form. His skin started to darken and he screamed in pain as one large wing made of bone sprouted out of his back in a shower of blood and muscle which made all three still sane kids want to vomit.
"He's becoming a stray" Naruto muttered as he stood next to his Queen as they both faced down the growing monstrosity in front of them.
"Ugly one as well" She spat angrily as her, unknown to her, two tails waved frantically behind her in anger.
Falling onto all fours Ken panted raggedly and grinned insanely at the two, his blood still leaking off his bone-wing and out of the hole it made in his back.
"You didn't have to stand with HIM! But because you DID! I get to kill you as WELL!" He screamed maniacally, his voice flickering between his regular voice and a deeper, more demonic voice.
Raising his left arm in the air and creating a dark purple magic circle he slammed it down onto the concrete, cracking it with the sheer force. Out of the magic circle came the thunderbird that Ken had made a contract with but days earlier.
"KILL THEM!" He screamed and with a loud cry the thunderbird flapped its wings and sent a bolt of lightning towards the pair.
Placing both palms forward, Naruto created a large magic circle that glowed blue and once the characters making up the magic circle stabilised pulsed his magic into it, creating a large bullet of water which intercepted the lightning bolt.
"Keep him and his familiar off me for a moment" Naruto ordered his Queen who nodded and shot forward while coating her hands in fire.
Groaning in anger, Naruto slammed both of his palms onto the cement and from his palms a massive Magic Circle spun into existence.

Stopping just in front of Ken, Natsumi sent out a twin flamethrower of fire from her palms which Ken blocked with his bone wing before unfolding it quickly to try and hit her with it. Bending backwards slightly the kitsune girl dodged the wing and took a step forward and swung her foot at his temple, lighting it on fire halfway through her motion. Ducking down, the demonic looking boy dodged the blow and spinning on one palm attempted to sweep her legs with his. Attempted being the keyword as Natsumi jumped over the kick and struck him in the face with a kick of her own, using his face as a springboard and flipping back, taking a pot-shot at his thunderbird using her Kitsune Bi and landing with a grace previously unknown to her as her slitted eyes glared dangerously at the boy.
Crying in pain the thunderbird turned its sights towards the lesser threat to it, the boy powering a large magic circle. Coating itself in lightning the thunderbird sped towards Naruto, intent on impaling him through at the speeds it was flying at.
A few meters away from the magic circle the familiar squawked in surprise as a giant paw came out of the magic circle like it was a portal, said paw pulling the top half of Tri through the circle who upon seeing the thunderbird snapped at it with all three of its heads. The thunderbird cried out in pain as the Cerberus successfully tore its wing off and unbalanced it enough that it shot to the left of Naruto before losing complete control and skidding along the concrete in a bloody trail.
As cruel as it may have sounded Naruto, at the time (he would later feel sorry for it), felt absolutely no sympathy towards the bird and as he walked towards the fierce battle between his Queen and Ken he spoke to Tri.
"Kill the bird then assist in killing the stray" He ordered coldly, his sympathy and other similar emotions having been forced away when that cleaver sliced his face, said wound was still bleeding now that he thought about it.
Walking forward even as he heard the giant footsteps of his familiar and the dying screech of the bird before a sickeningly loud crunch silenced it he stared at Ken before moving his gaze to Sayuri, who seemed to be severely shell shocked. Naruto allowed himself to feel for a brief few moments and smiled comfortingly at the girl before squashing those emotions down again and stalking towards the half-stray.
Picking up his speed until he was running Naruto quickly bent down and grabbed the first thrown cleaver while still running towards Ken and Natsumi.

Ken growled as this PEST somehow managed to keep up with him as he had long since dropped his cleavers in anger and now just coated his bone-wing and elongated nails in lightning as he flipped and slashed at her like a whirlwind of death. Though the kitsune had learnt from her first injury and hadn't let herself be touched by anything covered in lightning, unfortunately this meant that she didn't have enough time to counter-attack. Slamming his foot into the floor and causing a tiny crater to form under his foot and extended his wing fully and spun in a full circle, said action making the two-tailed girl jump back to avoid injury. As he was about to attack again he felt something pulse through him and grinned ferally when he felt both his body and magic growing stronger, his elation allowing him to completely ignore another bone-wing which tore open the other half of his back and sent a second shower of blood flying, a few drops hitting Natsumi who stared unflinchingly at him.
"uh oh. Seems like someone's in trouble!" he giggled maniacally as he felt his muscles grow and convulse once again, causing him to double in size and height.
Flexing his fist he shot towards Natsumi, taking extreme glee in the way that her eyes widened in shock before feeling a gust of wind and seeing all three heads of the devil's disgusting mutt inhaling. The slight wisps of fire leaving the corners of their mouths was the only warning Ken got as all three heads spat a sea of fire at him. Using his newfound sped he flapped his wings while jumping backwards causing him to backflip as he moved back. Flipping back he felt his feet hit the ground as he skidded backwards and placed one hand on the ground to keep his balance as he slid backwards across the cement. Out off his peripheral vision he saw Naruto's feet touch the ceiling as he jumped so that he would hit the ceiling of the ground floor upside down and before gravity could take effect kicked off the send him downwards towards Ken at an accelerated pace. A flash of silver and the sound of metal cutting through the air was all he heard as Naruto cut through his right arm and wing. Ken screamed in pain and jumped back, though with the pain blinding his senses he was just slow enough that Natsumi could take advantage hit his left arm and wing with an overpowered Kitsune Bi, destroying his left arm and making his bone-wing so hot that when it met the wall it instantly fused to it. Leaving him stuck in one spot with not limbs on his upper body.
Naruto slowly and cautiously walked up to the struggling Ken and when he was only two meters away raised one hand in his direction and a large Magic Circle sprang to life, the modified characters almost instantly clicking into place as the air heated up around the Magic Circle, some embers starting to float through the air.
"YOU DON'T HAVE THE GUTS! YOU'LL FAIL AND I'LL KILL YOU AND AVENGE MOTHER ROSE FOR THE SIN AND DEATHS YOU DEVILS CAUSED!" He screamed angrily while still trying to free his wing from the wall it had fused to.
Staring at Ken blankly as his spell powered up with the last dregs of his magic energy, Naruto spoke up.
"I gave you so much and you did this. Attacked my peerage, my family. There is nothing that can be done for you. Enjoy death" He said monotonously as the spell activated.
Almost as if it had been Tri himself who had created them, a massive flamethrower of white flames left the magic circle and burnt Ken to death. Naruto stared blankly as Ken laughed insanely until he died, his skin charring black and along with his muscles melting onto the floor, his eyeballs popping like balloons and the smell that quickly filled the immediate area. As much as his entire being screamed to look away from the gruesome scene he couldn't, nor could he stop his spell, probably some vindictive side of him getting revenge. Finally after what felt like an eternity to all the children, Naruto finally ran out of magic and the flames tapered away, a charred and melted skeleton all that was left, and as Naruto panted in exhaustion he felt like some switch had been flipped and all of a sudden everything came rushing to the forefront at once and he suddenly couldn't hold his stomach as his once again emotional mind relived what he had just done.
Naruto managed to get all of 9 steps at a running pace before he fell to his hands and knees and vomited onto the ground, and as much as Natsumi wanted to go over and comfort him her body had decided that now was a good time to introduce her to the effects of gaining another tail and her entire body crumpled from under her. As the fox girl hit the cement with the grace of a puppet with its strings cut, Tri slowly and carefully walked over and began sniffing and eating the chopped off and destroyed remains of Ken, much to the girls disgust.
Having finally emptied his entire stomach and only just stopped dry heaving, the poor male Gremory turned his head to the side slowly while panting to see a shaking and crying Sayuri standing next to him. Dry heaving once more he turned back to her to see her fall to her knees besides him, not seeming to care about the vomit next to her as tears streamed down her face.
"I-I'm sorry! I-if I-I had h-help-helped. I-I could h-have s-s-stopped him b-but I was s-s-s-so surprised! A-and-" Before the train wreck of a girl could say anything more Naruto turned to her and wrapped her in a hug.
Crying even louder the wolf spirit hugged him back and cried into his blood-soaked shirt as Naruto hiccupped before beginning to sob as well. The emotional weight of what had just happened finally settling in as Tri gently brought Natsumi over to the two crying children, the fox girl beginning to break down in tears herself. And while they would have to tell someone about what happened eventually. They would leave out this part, this part of the story was just for them.

HOOOOOOOOLY SHIT! This chapter is long (at least for me)
I hope you guys enjoy this one, I was surprised with how long I could make such a quick and simple fight scene go for and this chapter was the one I am the most worried about so criticism and feedback would be awesome!
On a final note. I have three OC's planned for Naruto's peerage (including Natsumi and Sayuri) and a few other suggestions from some people for people from other animes so if you have any suggestions please do tell me them and what position you think they should have.
Adios!
