Hello everyone, I hope you like this chapter.

Chapter 43

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~SOME TIME LATER AT THE HOSPITAL~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Naruto stood outside Kaede's room with his arms crossed, waiting for the students to leave so he could talk to her alone all the while thinking about his conversation with Koro the morning after what happened.

(It's hard to say but I discovered the his ability during summer vacation... Even so that form proves I was merely a sort of prototype but who knows. I wonder what my parents did to me all the time yet I have no lead on what they did to me but one thing I know is our abilities are similar, to similar... I can only guess Sasuke had something to do with me gaining these abilities.)

By the time his thoughts stopped he noticed the students were walking out of the classroom which he just smiles.

INSIDE KAEDE'S ROOM

Currently a blushing Kaede was moving around in circles within her bed in embarrassment with the blankets over her body not noticing the door just shut.

"Rawwwwwrrrrr! Why, that... That...was like being controlled, personality and all!" Kaede thought with swirls for eyes and the moment she looked out from her blankets she found Naruto holding his phone and taking a photo of her embarrass face.

"New background photo." Naruto said with a smile, receiving a glare from Kaede.

"What is it big brother?!" She shouted which Naruto just sat on the bed while she sat up.

"Just came to see how your doing." Hearing that, she just blinks in surprise while he smiles.

"So, you and Nagisa huh." When she heard that, Kaede immediately hid her face under her blankets in embarrassment, gaining a smile from Naruto.

"Awwwww, someone's embarrassed! Better tell Nag-" he was stopped there after having his face covered by a pillow by a blushing Kaede.

"No you won't big brother!" Kaede shouted at Naruto with great embarrassment much to the man's joy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~DAYS LATER AFTER CLASS~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Naruto was walking out with Koro when they stopped at hearing a voice and just turned to find Karasuma there.

"You two must have known this would happen, that they'd be like this. Especially now, with the heavy burden you've put on them. Can you two actually do your duties as a teacher?" Hearing that, Naruto just looks away whine Koro looks ahead of himself.

"If I weren't prepared to be flexible as the situation demanded, I wouldn't have become a teacher in the first place." With that said the octopus continues walking away, leaving the two by themselves.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~THAT DAY, OUTSIDE OF CLASS IN THE WOODS~~~~~~~~~~~

"So...what? It ain't like you to be callin' us all together like this, Nagisa." Terasaka questions Nagisa who stood in the center with a determined look on his face.

"I need to talk to you all." Hearing that, they were just confused by his words and the expression on his face.

"It's not just that he's my dad...it's more so that I no longer want to kill him from hearing what he's been through. What I'm saying is, I want to find a way to save him." Hearing that, there was only silence until Mimura questions Nagisa about what he meant even though he knew already.

"Where do we start?" Hearing Okano ask that, Nagisa just spoke again.

"We start with asking Karasuma questions since the government at some extent must know how Koro was given his powers, there may be w way to reverse it." Nagisa told them and right off the bat Hinano was on board, declaring she was in.

"Hinano..." Nagisa said and turns to Megu who began speaking with a smile on her face.

"If you hadn't said something, Nagisa, I would have. I want to repay him." Hearing that, Nagisa just smiles from hearing her day that.

"Our assassination work has gotten us far enough." Hara said, followed by the agreement or Tomohito and fuwa.

"We'll regret it if we don't." Okano said before she walks forward.

"You guys..." After he muttered that, he just smiles thankfully at seeing that this.

"I hate to spoil the mood...but in against the idea." When he heard that, Nagisa immediately turns towards Rio who was the one who spoke up before taking a step forward.

"Our bond is one of assassin and target. Koro-Sensei said as much. I really treasure the bond we built over this past year. But that's exactly why...I think we have to kill him." Hearing that, a bead of sweat falls down Nagisa's face from hearing her say that.

"You're against it?" Nagisa questions her but Terasaka followed her words by saying "You say you wanna save him, but how exactly since Karasuma works for the special defense force and I doubt he would give us any information." which Nagisa had wide eyes.

"But...what if time runs out before we find a way?" Hearing Takuya said that, Nagisa could only stare in disbelief while Terasaka continued.

"You think that your dad will be happy, havin' such half-assed students, comin' to such a half-assed ending?" He questions Nagisa who tried speaking until he was once again cut off by Karma this time.

"It's always the talented ones, mistakenly thinking everything'll go their way. Hey, Nagisa, aren't you getting a tad full of yourself?" Karma questions Nagisa with an easy going smile just as Itona spoke right after jumping off the tree and approaching Nagisa.

"We can't just throw away what we've learned and besides what if there is no cure, we would have wasted not only the assassination but our hopes." He told Nagisa who just shakes his head.

"Th-That's not what I... Besides, wouldn't your dad want to save Koro too?" Hearing that, Itona's eyes just narrow from hearing that.

"Who knows, but all I know is Koro gave it his all to get us to finally end him; I'm not putting that to waste and you as his own flesh and blood should realize when it's right to take a life or not." Itona told Nagisa who just shakes his head.

"No! That's not it! I'm being honest with my feelings! Do you hate Koro-" Nagisa couldn't even finish after receiving a powerful knee to his stomach, causing Nagisa to stumble a little back.

"Are you ser-" he couldn't even finish after seeing Nagisa's eyes turned red and was immediately punched very hard in the face, forcing him to stumble back with both showing anger that before charging for the other but in a flash both Naruto and Koro got between there respective sons in order to restrain them.

"I AM NOT GOING OFF HALF-ASSED!" Nagisa shouted in anger at Itona who was struggling yet both couldn't break free.

"THAT'S ENOUGH!" The two adults shouted, stopping both of them.

"A junior-high fight? Most excellent! But this classroom is based in assassination!" Koro shouted and in a flash he appeared with a bottle of red paint and a bottle with blue as well as two machine guns with paintball rounds in plastic jars.

"Red for Itona who wants to kill me, blue for Nagisa who doesn't want to kill me. A one-on-one fight between the top assassins in the class. You two will do battle in the mountain and the class will accept accept the opinion of the winning Assassin. Win or lose, no grudges allowed! What do you say?" Hearing that, both Nagisa and Itona just look at one another while Koro continued speaking.

"You know, I'll respect your decision, my dear students, if you give your all to reach it. What I'd hate most is for this class to end in discord. If you care about me...just promise me that won't happen." Hearing that, the two looks at there respective groups that just nod before they look at the other.

NEXT TIME, SAVING KORO-SENSEI; NAGISA, SON OF GOD OF DEATH VERSUS ITONA, SON OF THE TRUE REAPER. LEAVE A REVIEW IF YOU CAN AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.
