The Black Leaves

Chapter 14

"You...Die!" Venom roared as he dived at Mizuki. His jaws wide open, tongue flailing around, and arms poised to tear into human flesh.

Mizuki was quick to move; he shoved the girl directly at the soaring monster and rolled out of its path. Venom caught the girl in a massive hug and slammed through the wall and onto the hardwood floor. He quickly got to his three toed feet and released a mighty roar while holding the girl in his left hand. Said girl screamed her little lungs out and from the offensive scen coming from her, she lost control over her bladder.

Venom pulled the girl closer to his parted jaws. The girl let out a small whimper and closed her eyes, waiting for the inevitable feel of jaws chomping down on her head and sharp fangs digging into her scalp. But the attack never came.

The girl opened one of her eyes a little to peek into Venom's wriggling tongue and dripping fangs. She felt a sudden jerk as Venom pulled her out of his open mouth, closed it then brought the girl closer to his face. He turned his head to the side so that one of his large eyes was looking the girl. She could see her terrified face reflecting in the monster's eye.

Dispite the beast's lake of pupils; she could tell that it was looking her over, studying her. All she could do was whimper and cry as Venom loudly sniffed her. A noise from behind brought Venom's away from thew fear filled child.

Most of the students were smart and had decided that leaving was a good idea; thankfully the new hole that Venom created made the perfect exit. Only a few students were left inside the room. Most were huddled together in a corner with Iruka standing in front of them with kunai in hand. All of them however were completly silent, not wanting to draw Venom's attention.

The noise had come from the crippled Mizuki. He had been trying to stand up on his one leg and had been using one of the desk chairs. Unfortunatly, his hand had slipped and knocked over one of the chairs. He was still able to lift himself off the ground though.

Venom's eyes locked back onto the silver-haired ninja and let loss a low angry growl. He tossed the girl aside and paid no attention to what happened to her afterwards. She released a short yelp as she was carelessly tossed throught the air.

Drool started to leak from between Venom's many fangs as he slowly aproached the injured Mizuki. A low laughing growl excaped Venom's slightly parted fangs.

Seeing the stalking monster approaching, Mizuki reached around and grabbed his only reamaining weapon still strapped to his back. But before he could release the straps, Venom was already ontop of the man.

The back of a large black fist slammed into Mizuki's face, sending the man across the room and into the adjacent wall. Mizuki slammed into the wall and slid down onto the floor, again. But before he could shake off the new headache, Venom hopped across the short distance seperating the two and grabbed the human's only leg.

With an inhuman grunt, Venom raised the man high into the air and slammed him on the ground, hard. He raised Mizuki into the air again then tossed him against the wall on the other side of the room.

Iruka was stunned; he had no clue as to what to do. He was currently guarding the children from the beast, but he also wanted to help his fellow instructor. Since he was an instructor though, it was his official duty to protect the children. Even at the expence of his partners life. Nobody could say that Iruka was not dedicated to his job. So all Iruka was able to do was stand between Venom and the fresh genin and watch Mizuki thrown across the room over and over.

Venom continued to brutally beat Mizuki by using a combination of slamming him into the walls and floor, smashing him with his fists, and actually tossing a desk at the beaten man.

After so long, Venom stopped his rampage on Mizuki and raised him to eye level. "P-please stop," Mizuki whimpered pitifully. "P-please, I'm sorry." Tears began to well up and fall from his bruised and bloody face.

Venom's only response was a loud and angery roar. Mizuki did not have time to react as his head was shoved into the brute's massive maw. Fangs met flesh as Venom tore into the mans shoulders and pulled at the flesh. The silver-haired chunin's collarbone crunched loudly as the muscles in Venom's jaws added pressure. With the sound of flesh and cloth ripping; the late Mizuki's head and neck were torn from his body and disappeared down the symbiote's gullet.

Blood poured like a fountin out of the gapping hole where the neck used to be. Venom let loss another roar and chomped down on the corpse in his hand, tore another chunck of bone and flesh and continued to eat his fill.

As he fed; all Iruka and the remaining children could do was watch in utter horror. All were terrified by the display, but it was the new genin that suffered the most. Having never seen such brutallity and gore, some of the children cried while others whimpered and held each other in an attempt to comfort their friends. Some were having second thoughts on their career choice, especially if this was what they had to look foreward to.

Unfortunatly, he was not able to finish his meal since a single kunai flew past his head and nearly grazed him. Venom roared in anger and dropped the half eaten corpse as he turned to face his attacker.

One of the children that had excaped was smart and alerted an acually competent ninja. The ninja in question? One sexy Mitarashi Anko. For some reason, none of the children felt any safer now that the crazy snake lady made an appearance. Her wide open tan coat showed off as much flesh as legally possible, even though her steel fish-net under outfit just barley covered anything inappropriete. Her extremely short skirt showed off enough leg to make one hopeful that they would see where the sexy limbs would meet.

She looked at Venom then to the corpse he was just chewing on. Most of the corspe was gone, mostly just the spine, a few ribs and the lower half of the chunin was all that was left. Venom's jaws, claws, and most of his chest and stomach, was covered in Mizuki's blood and bits of flesh.

Anko placed her hand on her hips and grinned a creepy smirk, "Hello there, ugly. I'm Mitarashi Anko and I'll be your ass-kicker today. Do you have any requests?" She bellowed out while puffing out her chest.

Instead of attacking the new arrival; Venom slowly tilted his head to the side and slowly closed his jaws. Or, as closed as a mouthful of different sized fangs can be. His long, bright red tongue slowly hung out of his mouth. His head tilted the other way, like as if he was studying the oddly dressed woman in front of him.

Venom's snout sniffed loudly several times as he stared at Anko. He slowly raised his left hand and pointed his blood covered index finger/claw at the special jonin.

"You. Smell. Power." Venom growled out in his broken way of speaking. "We. Want. Power." Then his voice became loud and demanding, "Give. Us. Power!" He ended in a mighty roar and shot his abnormal tongue at Anko.

Said ninja effortlessly moved out of the way of the attack, "Your gonna' have to do better than that big guy." To emphasize her point, Anko allowed her tongue to streach out of her mouth and grab a shuriken from some where inside her coat.

Venom retracted his tongue and growled deeply as several more ninja decided to join in the fight. Suddenly, someone leapt onto Venom's back, wrapped one arm around his neck and started stabbing at his chest repeatedly with a kunai.

Letting out a pained roar and spilled purple-ish blood as the blade peirced black skin. Venom struggled against the his attacker and began to thrash around. Some of the new arrivels decided to participate in the 'make the monster mad' game by latching onto random parts of him and stabbing the heck out of him.

In was reasonable why they resorted to physically attacking him instead of using any of their actual jutsu. For one they would probably demolish the academy and have the cost of reconstruction deducted from their pay. The other reason was for all of the new genin, the chunin instructers, and the ungraduated children still inside the complex. Most of the techniques they new would cause massive damage to the surrounding area and the people as well.

As more ninja lept onto the behemoth, he was able to reach around and tear the offenders off him and toss them aside. He started to stumble over to Anko, who was laughing her ass of as Venom was nearly buried underneath a mounten of bodies, while grabbing whoever was on him and tossing them across the room. He was finally able to reach around and grab the leg of the one who instigated the massive dog-piling.

Yanking at the limb, Venom was able to pull off his attacker and threw himto the ground. It was Iruka! Having seen Venom distracted by Anko, Umino took the chance to at least do some damage to the symbiote.

Venom roared at the downed man and swept him aside with a well placed fist to the side of the ribs. Cracking a few of them as well as sending Iruka skidding across the floor. The ninja that had either not yet attacked Venom or had recovered from being tossed around like rag-dolls surrounded their target but did not attack.

Venom snarled and slowly rotated his self while keepinghis eyes on the surrounding enemies. Venom growled threateningly and swiped at them with his claws but did not make any attempt to actually hit them. Anko came waltzing up between two of the surrounding ninja and stood at her normal cocky pose.

"I know yourone of the snake bastards shitty little experiments," Anko spoke out, her playful expresion shifted to one of complete and total seriousness. "What the fuck does he want this time?" She shouted.

"We. Power. You. Power. Want. Grow. Strong. Whole." Venom responded while pointing at the purple haired lady. "Give...power. We...grow. Get...strong. Get..." He let out a groan and gripped his head in pain. "G-get...c-c-control!" Suddenly, Venom let out a loud growl of pain and fell into a kneel while gripping his head. He glanced up at Anko and the other ninja and let out a loud roar before jumping straight up through the roof.

Several of the ninja were quick to follow the hulking beast while Anko and the remaining ninja stayed behind to check on Iruka and the students. Anko walked over to the instructer, who was now standing and holding his cracked ribcage. She hoisted one of his arms over her shoulder, allowing him to lean on her.

"What's wrong Iruka-kun? Can't handle a little freak?" She chided with a smile.

"Please, Anko-san. Not now." Iruka groaned while he placed a hand on his damaged midsection. Suddenly his eyes widened, "Damn it, Naruto!" He shouted while forcing Anko to release him. Iruka stumbled over to the hole leading to the exam room and peered inside. All he found was the ripped remains of Naruto's black shirt, sweatpants, and boxers. He had not come to class with his orange jacket that day for some reason.

Iruka frantically scanned the area for any sign of his, hopefully, future son but the torn clothes, broken wood, a small fire, and large scorch marks were all he could find. Being the father figure he was, Iruka's mind imediatly went to the worst scenario; Naruto was dead. The feeling of hoplesness and depression washed over Iruka as the horrible thought forced itself into his mind.

"Iruka-kun?" Anko spoke up in a worried tone when she saw the sad expression on the instructor's face. She looked from him to the ruined clothes in the center of the room. She and the chunin had been friends for a few years now and one of the first things that the woman learned of her bud, was his fatherly outlook to the alleged demon container.

"Hey now," She said in a reasuring tone. "If what you've told me about the brat is true, then he's probably hiding somewhere or trying to chase down that thing." Her face suddenly broke out into a pervy grin. "Or he's most likely being raped by those hookers that hang around that crappy apartment of his."

Iruka could not help but give a small smile at Anko's lewd comment. He knew that if any woman tryed to get into Naruto's pants they would have to get past his thicker-than-steel head unless they outright said 'I want to fuck you'. Iruka would not put it past the whores of Konoha to do as such if they were desperate enough. Iruka quickly scanned the area to make sure nobody was looking, then quickly gave Anko a one armed hug and whispered a near silent thank you. Anko always knew how to cheer up Iruka, or make him uncomfortable.

Meanwhile, Venom was jumping throughout the village and still being chased by three ninja. He could feel his control waning and his host fighting against the slowly diminishing control. Normally he would stay and fight but even in his unstable state of mind, he knew that he would not stand a chance if he reverted back with these enemies chasing him. Especially when one of them shot a large ball of fire at him than nearly smacked him in the back. He needed to hide before who his host was could be found out.

The last thing he wanted was for his host to die. Venom was using the rooftops as his main mode of transportation; leaping across every other building on all fours. Since he was going for distance and not height Venom was running/jumping on both his hands and feet. His unusual spine made it easy for him to switch from bipedial to quadripedal in an instant.

He was quickly approaching the red light ditrict of Konoha while dodging weapons and jutsu alike. He saw several scantily clad women down below, chatting, and vered to the side and off the roof top he was on. He landed on his feet and charged at the women on his two legs, growling loudly while doing so.

The women glanced at the charging beast a screamed, but before they could make a run for it four of them were captured by Venom. One was held by his prehensile tongue, two were in his hands, and the fourth was grasped by one of Venom's three toed feet. He had made a small hop to grasp the last one.

When his other foot hit the ground, Venom pivoted on it to face his persoers. He pulled his other limbs back while the ninja approached their target. Just as they were about to reach him, Venom launched the women past the ninja and into the air.

A collection of curses left they warriers mouths as they abandoned the chase to safe the working girls.

"Ha. Ha. Ha. Haaaaa." Venom laughed as he made his excape. He was only able to get a block between him and the ninja before he started to regress into his host. He was able to make into an alley as his body shrank down to Naruto's height. The bulky muscles disappeared along with the elongated head, jaws and eyes. The toes split and shrank; the body continued to change until it resymbiled a faceless, hairless, human male incased in a black skin tight suit.

Then the whole suit 'shattered' into countless black tendrils that slowly retracted from the body. Underneath, Naruto's bare skin. The symbiotic tendrils continued to pull off the kid's skin and disappeard underneath. Naruto's eyes were closed and his breathing was calm until all of the tendrils disappeared inside of him. The he opened his eyes and took a sharp inhale as Venom's seperate memories hit him.

He staggered around in a bit of a daze before he got his bearings back. He sorted through his own memories and the new memories from his symbiote. From what he could, this was what happened:

Mizuki had tried to kill Naruto by using an explosive tag attached to a single kunai. The late chunin had tossed the weapon at Naruto but missed. The tag went off and caused Naruto to be hit by the explosion. To protect his host, Venom had foced Naruto to jump with the explosion so that the force of the blast would carry him away from the short lived fire caused by the weapon. Unfortunatly the impact to the wall knocked poor Naruto out, thus allowing Venom free reign over the village.

Pissed off at Mizuki for trying to harm his host, Venom tried to kill him and was succesful in chomping down on the chunin's fake leg. Shaking Mizuki like a dog with a rag-doll, one man was nothing compared to the 837 pounds that was Venom; the auto-mail eventually tore free from the body and the force caused Mizuki to sail through the wall. The rest can be read above.

Naruto did not feel any sense of guilt or pity towards the dead guy that part of him had devoured. Mizuki was known to be one of the many instigators in Naruto's beatings. He also tried everything in his power to force Naruto to fail.

Naruto's attention quickly shifted when he felt a whisp of cold air brush up against his bare skin. He glanced down to see his lake of clothing and let loose a small yelp of surprises as the information made its way from his eyes to his brain. That, and the fact that he had no clue where in Konoha he was, just that he was somewhere in the red light distrect of the village.

"Damn it!" He growled through gritting teeth. "Why does stuff like this always happen to me?"

Quickly covering his privates with his hands, Naruto frantically began to use his non-ninja abilities to figure his way out of the adult part of town and get back home. He was able to get several blocks away from his starting point without any trouble, but that was before he came across the busy part of the red light district. Luckily it was still in the early afternoon and not a lot of people were around. bUt there were still way too many people for Naruto's taste.

He made his way down an alley and past a prostitute and her client without being seen. At the other end of the alley, Naruto began to recongnize where he was; close to home. Overjoyed with the fact that he was nearly home free, Naruto failed to realize the increasing number of people; meaning, the academy had just let out.

But luckily for our hero, he was able to make it all the way to his apratment without anybody seeing him in his state of undress. He quickly unlocked his already unlocked apartment door and practically dove into the small living space. He slammed the door shut and made sure that it was locked before leaning against the door and sighing in releife.

"...Naruto...you...home...?" Naruto's head snapped up just as The Prayer's twisted form appeared from inside the kitchen. Naruto's bright blue eyes met The Prayer's black eyes and the two staied staring at each other for a few seconds. Sensing that something was wrong, Nightmare oushed her large intestine out from behind hr hospital curtians and formed a large orange eye on the end of the tubular organ.

The eye grew in size when it gazed at Naruto's bare body. That little bit of movement was all Naruto needed to snap out of his daze and cover himself. "S-sorry!" He shouted as he made a mad dash for his bedroom, covering his privates with his hands. But as he reached his bedroom, the door suddenly slammed shut, thus hiting him in the forehead. The force caused him to stumbled back and trip on a, suddenly, loose floorboard.

Naruto fell back onto a soft, red, velvet rug that he never could recall buying. He rubbed his throbbing forehead while trying to sit up.

"...Wow..." The Prayer whispered, accompanied with an affectionet grunt from Nightmare. "We know...that most...symbiotes...don't wear clothes...But...we...have never...seen...a naked...male...or...a real...penis...before..." She admited in a shy voice, Nightmare grunted an agreement.

"Um..." Was all Naruto could say to The Prayer's tidbit of information; and to the incoming question he knew was going to be asked.

"May...we...see...?" Both of the female's eyes raised from random parts of his anatamy to his eyes. The tone The Prayer used and the pleading looks they both gave him destroied his planned rejection to the question.

Naruto realized his one true weakness; women. If any girl were to give him a cute look or sexy glare, he would practically beg to be given an order. For some reason, Naruto did not feel all that bad about such a weakness. If it made others happy, then it was not so much a weakness than a weird gift. He blamed Venom.

Naruto sighed then gave a slight nod before falling back onto the velvet carpet and closing his eyes. It was embarrasing enough to know that two girls were staring at his naked form, he did not need to see their reaction.

He heard the familiar clicking of The Prayer's bladed legs walking on the hardwood floor, then nothing. He suddenly heard the cracking of The Prayer's arms before feeling her surprisingly soft and gentle hands lightly press againsy his young chest. His eyes snapped open to see The Prayer actually sitting on the floor with her hands slowly trailing around his body.

The Prayer was not so much sitting as had lowered her body to the ground and spread her bladed legs so that they were all lying on the floor. Her soft hands gently roamed over Naruto's chest and down to his stomach. The Prayer's split face showed complete and total consintration on every single movement she made and every little detail in the tessture of Naruto's skin.

Nightmare's intestine eye was practically pleading to touch him. She wanted to feel him with her own hands, feel his skin against hers. The loss of being able to touch anybody was a constant torture for the young symbiote. She could still feel using her intestine but it just was not the same as grasping a person's hand with your own.

Suddenly, the loud cracking ofmany joints echoed through the small apartment. Naruto tilted his head back before his blue eyes widened in a mix of horrer and surprise.

Coming out of his bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and from behind his ancient caouch; were a bunch of humnaoid creatures. They were all obviously female, had large breasts and wore an old style pink nurse outfit. The top few buttons of their open-cut blouses were unbuttoned and thus showed a great deal of cleavege. The increadably short skirt showed off the creatures' very pale skin and showed the panties of every single creature. The color of which varied from one to the other. They all also wore knee high black stockings and black high heels.

They only feature on them that proved that they were not human were their heads. They appeared to all be slightly swollen in appearance and had uniformly cut and well groomed shoulder lenght hair. But their faces were what trully showed their difference from humans.

Almost all of their face was hidden by bloody bandages, but what could be seen underneath was a single yellow eye and flesh that appeared to have been pinched and pulled until it had become somewhat folded. Every little movement that these 'nurse' like creatures made caused the sound of cracking bone and popping joints to echo throughout Naruto's cramped apartment.

The large group of creatures stumbled towards the prone Naruto with an all too familiar glint in their eyes. They surrounded Naruto, who The Prayer was still touching, and dropped down to their knees. They did not make any sort of movement for a few seconds and simply starred at Naruto while he frantically glanced around at the nurses surrounding him. The moment of nothing gave Naruto a chance to count how many of the creatures there were. There were not as many as he had originaly thought, only seven total of the things.

Naruto tried to move his arms but found rusted shackles, connecting to the carpet, holding him down. All of the nurses let loose a soft low groan and thrust their hands foreword. Naruto yelped in surprise as dozens of shockingly soft hands curressing and gropped his whole body.

Naruto was too freaked out about the whole situation to make any sort of reaction to the monsters' fingers running over his young skin. He finally did react when one of the nurses' gentle hands rubbed over and grasped his left ass-cheek.

"H-hey!" He shouted out while looking at the nurse in question. "Watch were your grabbing!"

Said nurses looked up at Naruto's face then down at his crotch. Naruto could have sworn he saw the formation of a lewd grin underneath the bloody bandages of her face. She slowly raised her hand that was not squeezing his ass and looked at it with false question. Her eye then locked with Naruto's and a mischivious glint appeared in her yellow eye.

Her hand lowered dangeriously close to Naruot's groin, her eye was focused on his fearfull facial features. Her 'sisters' continued their cerressing and gropping of the boy but watched the interaction between the two with rapt attention. Her delicate fingers just barely grazed Naruto's penis before a loud knock was heard coming from the apartment's front door.

All movement withen the small dwelling seased. Every individual's head turned to face the door where the knocking had come from. One of the nurses slowly rose to her feet and shambled over to the door, a heavy lead pipe appeared in her right hand as she made her way to the door.

When she reached the apartment door, the nurse gripped the door nob with her left hand and opened it just a crack. She moved her head over so that her eye could see through the crack.

"Naruto?" Umino Iruka's voice came from the other side. Suddenly all of the nurses rose from their kneeling positions and Naruto suddenly found himself standing on the carpet, fully clothed. He shot a quick glare at every other occupant in his apartment before walking over to the door and opening it for the academy instructor.

Iruka looked at Naruto, who smiled at seeing the chunin, and then to the many other occupants of the apartment. Most of the nurses were actually cleaning up the dirty room, but it was the provocitive positions, swaying of hips and exposure of underwear, coupled with their bizzare outfits caused Iruka to really question their presens in Naruto's home.

"Hey, Iruka-sensei. What are you doing here?" Naruto asked, his tone showed that he was happy that Iruka had come to visit, even if he had no idea why. He also wanted the chunin to not focus on the monsters in his home; the less questions asked the better. He motioned for Iruka to enter his humble abod.

Iruka gave a nod of thanks and cautiously entered the nurse infested apartment. Non of the scantily clad creatures payed Iruka any head but The Prayer was kind enough to give an awkward bow before entering Naruto's bedroom.

"Well, I came to give you some great news. But first I need you to close your eyes for just a second," Iruka said while watching a nurses bend over to pick up a medical syringe that had not been there before, while showing her unusually clean panties to everyone. Thus causing a mixture of reactions from both Iruka and Naruto. Mostly embarressment and horror, for obvious reasons.

"Alright, Iruka-sensei," Naruto said quickly to both have an excuss to not look and in excitment over the surprise. He closed his eyes and stood perfectly still with his hands out, waiting for the surprise. Instead, Naruto felt Iruka wrap something around his head and that was all.

"Open your eyes Naruto." Iruka said. Naruto did so and raised his hand up to his forehead, only to feel smooth metal and the texture of the Konohagakure leaf symbol. His eyes slowly widened in realization that he was now wearing an official Konoha ninja headband; and not the headband he would constantly steal from Iruka, but his own.

The smile that adorned his face was so big that it nearly took up all of his head. Iruka could not help but smile as well.

Naruto wanted to jump into a giant hug with Iruka, but a small question prevented him fromdoing so. "Why? I never completed my final exam."

Iruka's smile shrank a tad, "Hokage-sama informed me that you had been able to avoid and hid from that black monster at the academy. He said that you had not abbandoned your fellow students but stayed hidden and close incase that beast were to attack. I am very proud of you Naruto, using your head instead of brashly running at that thing like I thought you would." Iruka explained, "Hokage-sama also said that because of your survival during the attack of the monster and staying in the academy, that you are worthy of becoming a genin of Konohagakure." He ended in his boring lecture voice.

"Congradualtions." He smiled.

Naruto's massive grin returned and he tackled Iruka in a just as massive hug. The two laughed as Iruka fell to the ground. The nurses in the apartment stopped whatever it was they were doing and clapped for Naruto.

The instant Naruto released his ex-instructor, the nurse that had gropped his ass a few minutes ago waltzed over to him and literally threw herself at him. Her arms wrapped around his waist, her breasts pressed onto his back, and a low moan drifted from behind her bandaged face.

Naruto and Iruka were too shocked to respond, but the other nurses were not. They all made it over to Naruto as fast as they possibley could and threw themselves at him as well and latched on where ever possible.

At first, Iruka was terrified at the nurses actions and thought that they were outright attacking Naruto. It was not until Iruka saw Naruto's embarresed and horrified face that he started chuckling. All of the nurses were gripping onto some part of Naruto and were rubbing themselves on him while moaninf loudly.

Iruka started to laugh out loud when Naruto actually had to force a nurses hand out of the front of his pants. Naruto gave a betrayed glare towards the chunin who was not helping him from being molested by Otherworld monsters!

So instead of relying on the traeter of an chunin, Naruto opted to ask for help from, what he hoped, the more competent individuals in the apartment.

"Nightmare! Hee-alp!" The last part of his plea raised slightly in pitch because one of the nurses was able to reach her prize and gave it a firm squeez.

Alright, so chapter 14 is here. Read it, review it, love it, if you don't...then thats your problem isn't it?

So, as if you all could not tell already, I'm gonna' be making this a possibly big crossover with whatever the Hell I feel like. Note: I'm crazy.

I hated the biggeing of this chapter. I outright suck at scenes like these, ugh.

As you give me your paragraph long reviews, include what series I should cross over in this fic...I mean, really! IfI were just go canonically then Venom would probably only be at his level 2 form and we all know that he needs to be a tad stronger to eat Shukaku.
