A/N: ALL ABOARD THE NARUTOXDIANE SHIP! Okay, so this chapter ended up being way longer than I originally intended it to be because just about everyone wanted this to be part of the pairings and such. Oh, and HOLY CRAP! THIS STORY IS ALREADY THE MOST REVIEWED FIC IN THE NARUTOXSEVEN DEADLY SINS CROSSOVER SECTION! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Anyhow, VIVA LA REQUEST YEARS!
Well, this was bound to happen sooner or later. When this request came down the pipeline, I had no idea what Seven Deadly Sins was. Then I saw the anime and oh MY GOD where has this anime been hiding?! And then when I saw the complete and utter LACK of stories in the genre, I decided to take up my pen and get to work. To the request giver, I sincerely hope this measures up to your standards!
Now for your questions! There were many, and I'm happy to answer 'em!
Q: Why isn't Elizabeth in the pairing? And what of the others?
A: What heresy do you speak?! MeliodasxElizabeth is one of my all-time favorite pairings and is CRUCIAL to the story itself. She's his reason for living, after all. Now, there may be some wiggle room concerning the others, but those two deserve one another. I'll never ever thrust someone between them like that. As for King, well, in my mind, it was foolish of him to erase poor Diane's memories in the first place, and now that they've been erased again he's only JUST NOW trying to remedy the situation. If Diane chooses him in the manga that's dandy, but here...well, sorry, pal!
On another note BanxElaine stays, because those two are ADORABLE together and have met LONG before Naruto found himself here. Everyone else? Fair game.
Q: So what is Naruto dealing with here, exactly?
A: Guess I didn't make it clear enough. Somehow, someway, when Kaguya was sealed, she infected Naruto with a portion of her "self" as it were. She's a spiteful woman by all accounts, so many could easily see her doing this. By the time of this story that tiny portion of her "soul" has so intrinsically bonded with Naruto by now that he's a danger to others and himself. In short, as you all saw last chapter, he tends to lose himself when he gets overly excited, sometimes with disastrous results, i.e. not knowing his own strength, hitting too hard, getting violent and aggressive.
Plus she pretty much wants him dead, so...
Q: Wait a second! Kaguya's horn, right? So is it red? Always thought brown was an ugly color for her.
A: Yes, the horn is red, and its obvious as heck to anyone looking that he isn't human. He's TECHNICALLY by Seven Deadly Sins standards, part god at this point. Not omnipotent by any means but he's definitely a heavy hitter. Although given Kaguya's nastiness and what we've seen of the Goddess clan as a whole thus far, I'm not sure which is worse...
Q: What is Naruto's sin? What did he do to get exiled? Is he going to be a part of the Seven Deadly Sins?
A: Well, if I told you that now, I'd spoil the story wouldn't it? As to wondering if he'll be a part of the Sins, I'd say yes, on a tentative basis. Can't go with the Fox's sin since Ban's got that. So I ran a poll and the highest results were "Wolf", "Monkey", and "Panther" of all things. Needless to say, "Wolf" ended up winning. The Sin's name was eventually chosen as "Despair" So its the Wolf's Sin of Despair because he massacred those knights and scared the crap out of the survivors. Thank you all for PMing!
Funny thing, though, Naruto CHOSE that sin for himself, because when he loses it, he tends to cause despair, even if it TECHNICALLY isn't a sin. But he chose to brand himself deliberately. Take it for what you will, but to him, its a sign of comraderiere with others.
Q: Any chance you could do a gender-bend for Ban? I've never seen one before.
A: EH? In another story but not this one, I think. It'd be too confusing.
Q: How strong would Naruto be compared to the Ten Commandments?
A: Do you mean his base power level atm? Its Quite strong, but he can't take them all by himself. I don't think anyone can. Rest assured, he WILL encounter them and he's going to fight like hell when he does. Some of those bastards are an annoyance at worst but they're all CRUEL. Can anyone imagine Naruto, Escanor AND Meliodas ganging up on 'em? That'd be a fight to remember.
Now then, onto the next chapter! Naruto and Diane get to spend some time together in this one and we learn that not all is as it seems...
I hope this chapter leaves you all wanting more~!
"People like you...
"Ha?"
...DESERVE DESPAIR!"
~the Sin of Despair.
What is a Sin?
Diane was walking on air.
With every step she took her heart soared to new heights, giddy with fresh delight. And why shouldn't it be? Things were looking up! The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, and she was alive. So very, very alive! A light laugh escaped her lips as she bounded forward, skipping down the road without a care in the world. What a day to be alive indeed! She'd never been one to take life for granted, but now she found that she truly did appreciate it that much more, if only because
She'd finally found something!
Somewhere to belong!
Someone!
A friend!
Someone who wasn't afraid of her in the least. Someone who treated her not as a giant, but as a girl. As a person. An individual. Someone who didn't hesitate to dirty their hands for her in a heartbeat. Someone who wasn't intimidated by her raw strength and towering height, someone who saw her for her. Of course, it also helped that said someone was kind enough to treat her to a hearty meal of roast Sword Wolf after days of near starvation-but that didn't matter! Not a bit! In fact, it only made her adore him that much more!
And even if it was only one person right now, that person was willingly following her home.
She didn't mind his strange inquiries in the least; on the contrary, the brunette found herself all too eager to answer each of them in turn. She'd quickly come to the conclusion that Naruto wasn't from Brittania at all, he didn't know any landmarks and seemed even more lost here than she was, if such a thing were even possible. Worse still, he seemed to have lost most of his memories. Diane empathized with that as well. She knew all too well what it was like to have a gap in your mind. He'd seemed a bit depressed about that. But still, they'd shared a meal together and that left her in high spirits.
"Ehehehe," the giantess giggled softly to herself, idly twirling one braid around her finger. "This is great! I'm so lucky~!"
"You seem to be in awfully good mood...
Bouncing on the balls of her feet, Diane spun to face her companion, walking backwards with ease.
"Of course I am!" she chirruped happily. "That's because you're here!"
Naruto's face was a study of contrasts, torn somewhere between confusion and quiet pleasure.
"Because I'm...here?" he asked.
"Mm-hmm!"
The wayward blond had suffered something of a change in attire since they'd set out, having filched bits of clothing from one of the fallen knights to replace the torn rags he'd arrived in. Once he'd washed the blood away it even seemed to suit him. Although he didn't seem entirely pleased with the lack of orange. Diane sympathized. He'd looked rather dashing in his orange-black jacket, even if it had been a shredded mess. At least he'd been able to salvage the trousers, despite the tears...
Naruto laughed and Diane colored anew, realizing she'd been caught staring.
"Well, if you say so."
"So?" he sighed, dusting himself off. "Why did those idiots pick a fight with you anyway?"
Magenta eyes narrowed.
"They said ugly giant's like me had to pay a tax in order to use their roads." Diane sniffed, scowling at the unpleasant memory. "Jerks."
"Ha? Why would they say that about you?! Nothing could be further from the truth!"
Diane colored to the very roots of her hair.
The dead stop came so suddenly than her companion nearly walked into her foot, only narrowly catching himself at the last moment. Even so he startled slightly when the giantess dropped to her haunches before him, shyly hiding half her face with a ponytail. The corners of a rose-red blush peeked out around it regardless, and for a fleeting moment, her voice broke.
"Y-You think I'm cute...?"
Naruto looked up.
"Well, those weren't my exact words but-
WHAM!
That was all he managed before a massive, gauntlet-clad fist descended upon his head at the speed of sound. The next he knew he found himself wedged deep into the earth up to his chin, then deeper still as another gauntlet came crashing down into his face. In short order he found himself beaten within an inch of his life; ruthlessly pounded into the ground like a nail driven under by a hammer. A very beautiful, angry hammer. A hammer currently cursing him at the top of her lungs.
"Baka, baka, baka!" Diane wailed! "Naruto no baka! You should give more consideration to a maiden's feelings!"
"ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME FOR CRYING OUT LOUD?!"
The giantess froze.
For a fleeting instant there she'd felt...something. A presence, of some sort. Naruto had ruthlessly smothered it moments after speaking, but the giantess experienced it all the same. As if something far greater than herself were looking out at her from within the blond's body, watching her, ready to deflect the next strike. Or worse. Like standing beneath an icy waterfall, so too did she experience an almost primal surge of frigid dread. Gone in the next, instant, leaving her to wonder if she'd even felt it at all.
"Owowowow...
Naruto straightened up, shaking dirt out of his hair. Digging himself free from his earthen coffin, he dusted himself off once more.
"Okay, okay! I'm sorry! I was just kidding, oi...can we just forget that happened?" At the maiden's sullen glare and puffed-out cheeks, a sigh escaped him. "Fine, fine. I'll finish what I was saying before you pounded me into the ground. "You're plenty cute and those knights were idiots. They deserved what they got."
Diane squealed and sprang to her feet!
"Aaaaaand you're forgiven~!"
Naruto hissed softly to himself and followed, feeling the words like a rusty kunai against his heart.
Forgiveness.
He didn't think he'd ever be able to forgive himself.
A rueful smile played across his mouth, eyes intent on the road before them. Had Diane been able to peer into his thoughts she would've realized that said smile was entirely forced and he grinned more for her sake than his. He didn't want her to know just how much it bothered him. The idea that he had this horn, that his temper could so easily eel out of his grasp and run amok...it bothered him more than words could possibly say. But he didn't want to burden others with this information. After all, he was a stranger in a distant land. The last thing he needed was for everyone to think he was some sort of monster.
"So about your horn...
Naruto moved before she could get the rest out, promptly spinning to smack his head against a nearby tree. As expected, the offending horn didn't crack in the least; instead it sundered the mighty oak, roots and all as though it were no more than a mere sapling. Another headbutt upturned the tree entirely, sending it tumbling backwards with a mighty crash. Growling, the blond gave the upturned wood a vicious kick.
"Aargh!" he groaned, tearing at his hair! "I was so close to forgetting about it, too!"
Diane looked on in quiet confusion as Naruto flailed about on the ground, clutching at his head. He'd been doing this on occasion for the last hour now whenever the topic turned to his new "accessory", oft muttering to himself and smacking his head against anything in sight in a vain attempt to get rid of the offending protrusion on his head. It would've been funny if the topic didn't cause him so much obvious distress. He didn't seem to like acknowledging his horn, not at all.
What did that make him?
A demon?
He was awfully nice for a demon, if a tad sad.
Well, she could do something about that!
"Oh, stop sulking, you! C'mere!"
Naruto's head snapped up.
"Wait, wha-ACK!"
Distracted from his maudlin thoughts by Diane's declaration, the blond's protests dissolved into a strangled squawk as a large, gauntlet-clad hand closed around his body and hoisted him into the air with alarming speed. The next thing he knew, he found himself face to face with Diane, who promptly proceeded to nuzzle him into the side of her face, rubbing her much-larger cheek against his. That soon proved the least of Naruto's worries. He'd never been physically glommed by someone several times his height before and Diane easily exceeded his expectations in that category. It was...well, rather strange, all things considered.
"It'll be alright."
Naruto stiffened.
"I-I beg your pardon?"
"I said it'll be alright." Diane repeated, her words soft despite their close proximity to one another, "I don't know where you came from or how you got here, but I can tell you're upset." The truth of her words made him want to bolt, and he would have too, if she weren't gripping him thus. Because he was upset. Not just at himself, but the situation he'd found himself in. He had no memory of the past few days-or weeks for that matter if not more-and it genuinely frightened him. The idea that he could slip at any time and become someone who took pleasure in hurting others and for someone to just tell him that it would be alright...
...that was his line, damnit!
"And why is that?" he challenged, gritting his teeth. "You don't know who I am or what I've done. Even I don't."
Diane tilted her head.
"That's simple."
Violet eyes bored into his.
"Because you're not a bad person." she replied simply. "If you were, you wouldn't have bothered to save me."
Naruto felt his heart physically skip a beat.
"Eh?"
Now that he concentrated, he could feel it, a warm, earthen scent enveloping him as she held him tight in her hand, accompanied by a strange softness and a sense of...peace? No, perhaps that wasn't right. Serenity? Despite her overwhelming strength and the knowledge that she could probably crush him to paste if she saw fit, the ninja simply couldn't bring himself to be afraid. The opposite, in fact. He couldn't put his finger on it, but something in him slackened as Diane held him. Though her hair tickled his nose, forcing him to physically hold back a sneeze, he actually found himself relaxing in her grasp.
He couldn't stop blushing, blast it!
"C'mon now, if you just say stuff like that I'll...
You'll what? A nasty little voice purred in the back of his mind, trailing words like ice down his spine as his world went black. Fall for her? Because she comforted you? You barely know her. Are you so eager to assuage your guilt that you'll throw yourself at the first willing woman you find? Pitiful. But what can one expect of a fragment like you? You fumble at feelings like some helpless boy and bury yourself to avoid responsibility. Bonds are useless to us, remember? Discard them.
Something in him froze.
That hadn't been Kurama's voice.
It wasn't even Kaguya's.
It was...himself?
But he'd never say those words. Never.
Naruto restrained a growl.
'Whose a fragment, oi?!'
You are, fool. the "voice" snapped back waspishly. You really don't remember anything, do you? Yet you touch my-our-mind, fumbling in your ignorance.
'Who the hell? What are you? Who are you?! What did I do?!'
Enough. This exchange is over. We will meet again.
'Answer me, damnit!'
None answered.
'Did I imagine it?'
He tried to tell himself that he had, but something in him told him he hadn't. The thought chilled him to the bone, but when he looked inside himself he found nothing. Not even the presence of Kurama. His chakra was still very much intact, in fact he was lousy with it, but of the fox himself there was nothing. Only a void. More questions. Not enough answers. His mind scrambled to bury it, flinching away from the very suggestion the "voice" had implied.
And all this while he was being held by a giantess.
Strange indeed.
"You need to stop being so broody," Diane declared loudly, interrupting him. "I like your smile better."
A good kind of strange, Naruto swiftly decided.
Then he felt his already bruised bones begin to crack.
"Hey, Diane!" he croaked! "Not so tight! My ribs! You're crushing my ribs...!"
"Hai~!"
However, rather than merely setting the prolific blond down, she placed him on her shoulder instead. Despite his resolve, the blond found himself sputtering anew as Diane started forward. If she was at all bothered by this new arrangement she wasn't doing much to show it. A part of him almost welcomed the casual gesture, but even so he found himself stricken speechless by the simple audacity of what she'd just done. It wasn't until the tenth step that he finally found some semblance of his voice:
"Oi?!"
"You're hurt." A bright eye turned to regard him sternly. "No more walking for you until you get those wounds tended."
The blond's jaw briefly clicked open.
"Look, I heal really fast so-
"No buts!"
Naruto sighed.
"You know what? Not even going to argue."
Satisfied that she'd won the day, Diane hastened her pace.
At first she hadn't given much thought of returning to her homeland at all; of course she wanted to tell Dolores-her most cherished of friends-that there was someone out there who didn't discriminate against their kind, but in the same vein she was more than a little wary of how Matrona might react to a newcomer in the land of giants. If there was one thing the chieftan respected it was strength. Strength, and little else. Still, once Naruto confessed he really didn't have anywhere else to go and seeing as she herself knew next to nothing about the outside world, it made sense to return and stock up on provisions before setting out.
Just for a little while.
Then they'd leave.
It couldn't hurt.
Right?
Not once did it even occur to Diane to feel sorry for the soldiers that she'd seen him kill. Not a single, solitary second. Why should she be afraid of him for that? They would have more than happy to do the same to her, given the chance. Granted, she wasn't exactly happy about their deaths mind you, but she wasn't about to shed any tears for those nameless men, either. Dead was dead after all and nothing could be done about that, now could it?
As if sensing her very thoughts, the blond flashed her a rueful look.
"So. This "home" of yours." he began, eyeing the mountains in the distance. "I'm guessing it has giants, like you."
"Yup."
"And they're like you? Or are they obsessed with fighting? They're not, right?"
"Ah, well...
"What, do they hate humans or something? Or do you have some beef with them?"
Diane flinched slightly, her silence telling, and the blond groaned.
"Oh, this is going to go so well...
Suddenly, Diane didn't feel so certain about going home after all.
"Um, w-we could turn around, if you want." she offered tentatively, her voice emerging as little more than a squeak. And go where, you silly little girl? her mind instantly rebuked her for her cowardice. The sun was already hanging low in the sky and neither had anything in the way of shelter. If they were to turn around now they'd wind up spending the night outside and while Diane was no stranger to the outdoors, she didn't relish the idea of forcing him to spend a night outside-
"Do you want to?" The object of her affection inquired suddenly, momentarily causing Diane to start. "I mean, its your choice."
She wanted to.
Very much so.
But she wanted to prove Matrona wrong even more.
Perhaps it was childish of her to think so, but she just couldn't help herself. She wanted to leave, yes-and quite possibly bring Dolores with her-but on another level a part of her remained determined to prove to the stubborn chieftan that
"Let's keep going." she decided at last.
"Nice resolve!" grinning, he flashed her a thumb's up. "Onward, then!"
"Oh, you're so cute~!"
"Gack!"
The sun was only just beginning to dip when they finally reached their destination.
Diane's "home" looked as though it had been carved from the earth itself; a massive rectangular block of stone held upright by a number of smaller stones, a great creation that seemed to rise out of the earth itself. He found he could sense a number of large presences within, each of them radiating a strong vitality. The air was fresh and clean and the earth, it felt...pure. Whole. Familiar. As if it were a long lost friend stretching out a hand to welcome him home. Not a bad place for giants to live, all things considered. Sturdy and strong, just like their kind. No, not a bad place, the blond decided to himself.
Not at all.
Diane seemed to physically wilt as they approached, shrinking away from the questioning stares of her kin. Naruto found they weren't directed her, but rather himself. Harsh whispers drifted through the air to reach him as they ventured further inward. Fell whispers of a horn, followed by demon and what is one of their clan doing here, plucked at his ears. Self-conscious of his new accessory though he was, the blond refused to be baited and stubbornly weathered each of the insults in turn, his gaze locked on the well worth path ahead.
"Friendly bunch." he muttered.
"Sorry." Diane murmured, shooting him a regretful glance over her shoulder as she plodded on ahead. "They're old fashioned. You'll like Dolores, though!"
"Dolores?"
Her head bobbed.
"She's a good friend of mine. You'll like her, I think."
"Well, I look forward to meeting her, then!"
As she led him further inward however, he took note of the alarming lack of children among the fur-wearing folk. Of grown men and women there were plenty to be seen, but not a single infant or babe. That was rather ...troubling. He wasn't quite sure why, but the knowledge plucked at him regardless and he felt his anger begin to warp into pity. For a people who lived for war and thrived on strife children likely weren't essential. The thought saddened him immensely and made his heart ache for home.
"Diane, there you are-
The newcomer stopped short at the sight of him.
"Why have you brought an outsider here?" she demanded brusquely.
The brunette fidgeted.
"Um...well...oh, right! This is Naruto! Naruto, this Matrona, the rear Fan of the Earth. I guess you could say she's my teacher, hehehe...
"You still haven't answered my question."
Warily, the far flung ninja managed a nod as he took in this new giantess.
She had violet eyes like Diane, but that was where the resemblance ended. It wasn't just her blond hair or the stern set of her jaw; one could see it simply in the way she held herself. This woman was all rough, jagged edges, a warrior through and through. Though she might wear animal furs to preserve her modest, she did not flaunt her beauty. Nay, she didn't even seem to be aware of it. Here was a being of sheer strength, a pure creature who knew nothing but fighting and strength and demanded respect because of both.
"Dolores is...dead?"
"Indeed, and she has only herself to blame."
Naruto came back to himself all at once, quickly snatching the thread of their conversation. His eyes idly tracked Matrona as she turned her attention to a nearby tanning rack and set to it, paying no mind to the younger girls words. Naruto did. Diane had just said something about Dolores, and from what he'd heard of her they were good friends. For someone to speak so flippantly of her...it made something stir in him. A tooth cracked in his jaw, muscles jumping violently in his right hand.
You didn't speak ill of the dead.
"But how did she...
"She died defending a mining town from bandits." Matrona replied tersely, never once looking at them. "What a pitiful end. She didn't even defend herself."
The blond hissed softly.
Diane was of a similar mind.
"Who...who sent Dolores there?"
At that, Matrona finally looked up from the tanning rack.
"I did, of course." she stated with conviction, "Who else would-
CRUNCH.
Diane's fist thundered forward with blistering speed and barreled into the blonde woman's jaw. Matrona didn't budge. Though her head snapped to the side and a bloody tooth flew free from her mouth still she accepted the blow solidly; an immutable wall which weathered all and felt nothing.
Her hand clenched at her side and she swung up...!
The return blow never landed as something slammed into the back of Matrona's leg, forcing the limb to buckle. Momentarily unbalanced, the woman's strike went wide, but before she could ponder what had thrown off her aim something grabbed her by that injured appendage and pulled. Gravity found itself upended, and so was she, lifted into the air with ease. Violet eyes widened, baffled by this sudden betrayal. She'd never a-once suffered such an indignity, and sense briefly abandoned her.
Then, with a wary cry, Naruto Uzumaki levered her into the earth.
For a fleeting moment Matrona actually lay there, blinking, trying to figure out what had just happened. The impact hadn't so much hurt her body as it had her pride; rattled her unshakable confidence as a warrior. Her sharp eyes saw Diane's wide ones, her arm still half-extended from that awkward punch. She looked just as surprised as the chieftan felt. Surely it couldn't have been the horned one. No man was that strong! So no, it couldn't have been been him, it just couldn't have, because if it was-
"Naruto, what are you doing?!"
Diane's cry merely confirmed it.
"Something that should've been done a long time ago!"
Naruto growled into the dust, shaking sensation back into his hand.
"Fang of the Great Earth, Matrona, huh?" he called into the sudden silence with a voice as cool as glacial ice, "I don't know how you do things here, but I'm pretty sure being a bitch is a no-no. So, why don't we just cool our heads and-
"Stay out of this, outlander!"
Her fist descended mercilessly.
It was a very impressive hit Naruto thought; it slammed into him from the side and rattled him to his very bones. Made him slide backwards, his boots digging great trenches in the earth. It would've made paste out of him had he been his normal self. Even during his fight with Sasuke, he would've been hard-pressed to take such a hit, much less endure it and stand up again afterwards. It was a punch that could level castle, crush mountains, and more. So why was he smiling? But he'd surpassed that level long ago. In the time that it took Matrona to stand he was already healing, broken bones mending, flesh knitting itself back together. And as it did, so too did the beast stir yet again.
Once more, something ugly in him reared its head.
No, this was wrong, a small part of him hissed. You'll hurt her! Don't! Don't you dare do it! You stop this right now, take a step back and THINK-
Quietly, calmly, he slammed the door on reason and started forward.
"Hey."
Matrona bristled.
"Is that it?"
Arm trembling, she jerked her fist back.
"How are you...?!"
"I endured hits from a fuck-mothering-Goddess." Naruto turned his head and spat out a tooth, grimacing as the dislodged molar instantly grew back in is mouth. "Compared to that this is nothing. But since I'm not here to fight you, I'll give you one more chance." clawed fingers crooked outwards as he raised his gaze, beckoning. "I. Am. Sorry. Three little words. You should probably say them now. If you don't, I'm going to hit you. As hard as I can. Not some warm-up jab, not an arbitrary percentage." White eyes like the palest snow took her measure, found her wanting. "As hard. As. I. Can."
"And if I refuse?"
He gave her a strange grin then, and something in her shuddered.
"Then you will know despair."
'Did his voice change, just now?'
Matrona glowered, uncertain of what was happening. Of what she was looking at. Of what the hell was going on. Still, never one to back down from a challenge, she straightened, looking the battered man in the eye.
"Apologize to Diane," Naruto repeated quietly, gritting his teeth. "Or I swear to god, I'm going to turn you inside out."
With that he stepped in, and Matrona moved to meet him.
Then the room imploded.
A/N: Did I just do that? I think I did!
SOOOOOOO that bit wit Naruto and Sins will be happening chapter, not this one. To be perfectly honest, I did INTEND to put in here, but then the NarutoxDiane ship reared its head and I ended up devoting most of this chapter to her and Naruto cementing their friendship. I figured he deserved a chance to adjust to things before he got thrown into the proverbial blender.
Didn't want to cram too much in at once, ya know?
Also, I've caught up to the manga and if you're anything like me, you cannot WAIT to see everyone throw down with the Ten Commandments. I can safely say that each and every one of those vile, cruel demons will receive their own, nasty prank/surprise courtesy of our favorite, ramen-loving blond. But what I'm REALLY looking forward to is having him and Galand go at in Camelot, even if that's a ways away.
It'll be one hell of a fight!
And there we are. Should be fun to see what kind of hijinks Naruto gets up to, no? To be clear, this is Naruto in his PRIME. After his last brawl with Sasuke but before "Naruto: the Last" movie and such. Ergo, he's viciously powerful, and not a pushover by any means. He's struggling with a strange affliction however, and trying to very much himself, however, and as such wholly intolerant of those who take pleasure in tormenting the weak, so it ought to be amusing to see where this goes.
As to pairings...hmm...Merlin...Guila...or, lets see...
So in the Immortal Words of Atlas...
...Review...
...Would You Kindly?
And of course enjoy the previews! What is happening?! Sheer madness, that's what!
(Previews!)
"Stay down."
A bloody grin.
"Never."
Diane stared.
"Y-You're big!"
Naruto shrugged.
"Well, I can only do something like this with my chakra shroud-OOMPH!"
That was all he got out before the giantess tackled him to the ground.
R&R~!
