So I guess I took the advice of some, people and revised chapter 4, so basically I changed the whole entire storyline…
I guess I tried.
Enjoy
'Whatever. I'm going back to sleep.'
'Go ahead furball, but, I feel like things are going to get interesting from now on.'
Naruto didn't hear a response and just smiled.
PUtting up a familiar cross sign, he muttered, "Shadow Clone Jutsu" and a shadow clone of him appeared.
"I want you to put up a henge and listen in and make sure that you report on everything this group does. You understand?"
"Got it boss!"
Sighing, Naruto smiled and then left the building while his shadow clone henged into an insect and found a spot right above the door.
Finally, things were changing.
"Normal talk"
"Deep talk/Biju Talk"
'Thoughts'
'Dark Thoughts/Biju Thoughts'
Chapter 5
It had been days and days without anything going on. Naruto had kept the hinged shadow clone on the ORC to make sure that they were safe and sound. Afterall, Naruto would hate it if his new acquaintances got injured or was placed a bad situation.
But for now, it seemed like everything that was happening to them were currently things that they could handle on their own. So Naruto had some off-time to relax.
Well, not necessarily. He did have to train too.
'You baka. It doesn't matter if you train more. You'll still be the most powerful person on this planet.'
'But it never hurts to be ready right?'
'...Idiot.'
'Whatever furball.'
'I'm going to sleep.'
'Of course you are.'
Then Naruto heard light snoring and knew that Kurama had gone off to sleep.
Naruto sighed. There were times where he just wanted to rip the throat out of Kurama. But then there were the times where he could be such an adorable fox. Whatever. Kurama can live.
It was actually almost getting boring. There wasn't anything to do.
'Hey, Before I go to sleep, you have three minutes to get to school.'
Naruto froze. He slowly turned his head towards his clock, and cursed. Kurama was right. There were three minutes.
Quickly running out with his backpack, he pondered his options, then deciding to make a daring move, he left up to the roof of his house and started hopping from rooftop to rooftop.
Not that anyone could see of course. To everyone else, he was just a blur that could've just been a trick of the eyes.
Making it barely in time, Naruto sat down in his chair sighing. "Barely made it one time," he whispered.
Then he noticed two, or three things. One, Issei and Kiba had a down look on their face. Naruto intended to find out why. Naruto mentally ordered the clone that was trailing the ORC to disappear. He could hear a slight pop in the room.
Seriously? The clone was trailing Issei?
Well, or Kiba. Kiba would be the better option though. Issei, didn't seem to matter much.
Then Naruto reeled back in shock from the knowledge he had received. Naruto processed through it all through a mild headache.
'Okay, so they did a little devil hunting, friend saving, and killing fallen angels. But then they ran into this Rise Phenex douche and got defeated in a rating game. Although, by the looks of it, Riser isn't that strong.'
Then he mentally backtracked until he saw an image of a stunning looking silver haired woman that seemed to be involved with this matter.
Naruto mentally whistled. 'Whoa, and I thought Rias was the most beautiful. Wow, that silver haired woman is the real deal.'
'I thought you weren't a perv.'
'I'm not, but you've got to admit Kurama, that woman is like a goddess.'
Searching through the clone's memory just a little more, he found out the name of the lady, and the position she held.
'So Grayfia Lucifuge eh? Seems that she doesn't have anyone as her partner. Well, for now.'
'Thought you weren't a perv.'
'I'm not. She's just beautiful. Also, she doesn't have anyone. It's perfect.'
During the whole entire school day, all Naruto could think about was the silver haired woman that he had seen through his clone's memories.
Then the end of the school day came really quickly.
Immediately, he was approached by Issei.
"Naruto-san, please-"
"Help you bust Rias out of this marriage?"
Issei looked stunned. "How did you-"
"Don't ask. I want to know why you want to break her out of this marriage so much. I mean, you guys did lose fair and square."
"I'm not going to ask how you know that, but please! Help me! It's not fair that Rias has to go and marry some jerk that's a douche. Also, the game wasn't fair! It was five against sixteen!"
"Well, I guess that's true. But I still don't see how we're going to bust her out of this, and why I should do it."
Issei went on his knees. Naruto's eyes widened.
"Please Naruto-san, help me.. I don't know what I'm going to do… I want to believe that I alone will be able to break her out of this, but, I don't believe in myself anymore… I know you're strong enough. Help me!"
Naruto sighed. "What do you plan on doing if you DO manage to crash the party? What are you going to do then?"
"I was thinking that maybe I could challenge Phenex and just beat him for the freedom of Rias."
'Ooooh, finally, a chance! This might be fun. What do you say Kurama?!'
'A fight? After so many months of waiting?'
'Yeah!'
'Let's do it Naruto! At this point, I myself don't care if we're exposed to the world! We need a fight!'
Naruto smiled confusing Issei. "You're in luck. I really don't feel like helping you."
"HOW AM I LUCKY?!"
"You didn't let me finish."
Issei face flushed red. "Oh, sorry."
"While I really don't want to help you, I've got to admit, I hate the Phenex douche. Reminds me of someone I don't like. Also, I'm aching for a good fight. I'll go and help you on one condition."
"What?"
Naruto smirked. "I'm going to be the one to fight Riser."
Silence reigned for ten seconds before Issei timidly said, "But, I wanted to-"
"Be the hero? Stop joking. Based on the power you possess, you still can't defeat him. You let me fight Riser, or I don't go!"
Issei looked deep in thought. "Fine…. But you better not screw up Naruto!"
"Fine. I won't. So how are we getting to the underworld?"
Issei sweatdropped. "I really haven't thought about that yet."
Naruto facepalmed. "Of course you haven't' thought of it. Here, let's go to your house and think about this."
"Got it!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Naruto grabbed his ears in pain. He looked toward the origin of the sound and found a hoard of girls just covering their mouths with their hands while shaking their head really really slowly.
"What seems to be the matter girls?" Naruto asked smiling.
"Don't go with him Naruto-kun! You'll catch his pervertedness!"
Naruto gave off one of his brilliant smiles. "Oh, don't worry ladies. I'll be going to tame his pervertedness. Don't worry about me. Thank you for the concern though."
All of the girls sighed a dreamy sigh.
Issei yelled, "Hey! What do you mean you're going to tame-"
Naruto grabbed Issei, covered his mouth, and ran. Only a trail of dust could be seen where Naruto had been running. All the girls sweatdropped.
"O-Okay.. Bye Naruto-kun."
Currently, Naruto and Issei were sitting down in Issei's room thinking.
How could they go to the underworld and save Rias from her own wedding.
I know. It sounds really weird, but that's what they were doing here.
Normally, Naruto would be able to just rip through the dimensions and go to the underworld, but he didn't know what or where to look for so that idea went down the drain.
While they were considering their options, time was running out. They were considering asking the other devils of the ORC to help, but then soon realized that they would already be at the party.
They didn't time to waste.
But then it soon became dark. Issei yelled out in frustration as tears started to flow down his cheeks.
"What use is it if I've got a powerful person right besides my side? We can't even go to where Rias is now that we don't have a method of getting there!"
Naruto sighed. He was right. Most likely, the most powerful person in their whole entire world was right besides them, yet they couldn't do anything just because they couldn't find their way to the underworld.
All hope seemed lost and they were just about ready to give up when they saw a bright light filled the whole entire room and from that light stepped out a very familiar silver haired woman.
"Grayfia…" Naruto whispered, and the woman turned to look at him.
"Hello, it seems that you already know my name, but I do not know yours." she said monotonously.
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki. It's very nice to meet you. Afterall, it's not everyday that you meet someone that's as beautiful as you."
A small tingle of pink started to appear on Grayfia's cheeks.
All Grayfia was thinking was, 'Why am I acting like this?! Calm down, Calm down, remember, you promised that you wouldn't go for anyone else after what happened between you and Lucifer-sama.'
Grayfia just calmly answered, "Pleasure to meet you as well, although, I am here to talk to Issei Hyoudou."
"He's that crying heap you see right there." Naruto said pointing to Issei.
Nodding Grayfia said, "Would you please leave the room Naruto-san? This is a private conversation."
"Is it about the marriage?" Naruto asked bluntly, and Grayfia showed no outside reaction. On the inside was a different matter.
"Yes it is. Seeing that you know, I suppose you can stay."
"Um.. okay." Naruto said just a little bit confused.
"Issei Hyoudou, my master Sirzechs Lucifer, brother to Rias Gremory told me this and told me to give this to you." Grayfia handed Issei a piece of paper.
"What is it?" Issei asked.
"It's a summoning circle that will take you directly to the party. Basically an invitation letter."
"Why are you-"
"Also, he told me to tell you, if you want my sister back, you better be ready to fight."
Widening his eyes, Issei shook, then grinned. "I see."
But then his smile turned into a frown. "You know, I know I can't do it."
Grayfia frowned. "What do you mean?"
"I'm.. too weak. The only reason that Rias was placed into this situation in the first place was because I was too weak to stop Riser during the rating games."
"You have lost hope?"
"No. Not lose hope. I just came to the realization that I can't stop Rias from getting married.
Once again Grayfia frowned. "Here I thought that we could believe in you to stop this from happening. Goodbye Issei Hyoudou."
Then she turned around but stopped when she heard Issei yell, "I wasn't done talking!"
"What else do you have to say? It seems as if you've given up. There's nothing that we can do at this point if the Red Dragon Emperor has given up."
Issei smirked. "I know I'm too weak. I'm inexperienced, and even with the knowledge that my friends have given me, I still don't completely believe in myself. Which is why, I'm glad I have a friend that CAN kick Riser's ass into next week."
Then Issei looked at Naruto. "Naruto, make sure to kick Riser's ass for me!"
Grayfia looked in confusion. "What do you mean? You don't believe that this human can defeat a high class devil do you?"
Naruto spoke up. "This HUMAN is stronger than you think."
Grayfia looked unconvinced, but didn't question Naruto any further. She just shook her head. She was going to speak, but was stopped when a finger was placed on top of her mouth preventing her from speaking.
The finger belonging to one Naruto Uzumaki who was smiling. "You don't need to say anymore. I think you should go back. Hope you'll find our show entertaining. Please keep this a secret though."
Grayfia remained confused, but she nodded. Then she started to glow in a white light. Before she could go back to the Underworld, she heard, "Hope I will be able to meet you again."
Grayfia let out a small smile although no one could see. Then she disappeared.
Naruto was about to yell something cool, but the door crashed open and a blond haired girl revealed herself.
"Issei!" then the blond haired girl just tackled Issei onto the bed. All the meanwhile crying during the process.
"I was so worried about you and- oh? Hello Naruto-san"
"Hello there Asia." Naruto replied
They had met at school about a week or two ago. Naruto had found her nice personality somewhat soothing. Of course, he knew what she was.
"What are you doing here Naruto-san?"
"Oh, I'm just helping Issei do something. Issei, you want to explain?"
Issei nodded. "I'm going to save Rias."
"What? That's too dangerous!" Asia cried.
"I know, but I know that she'd do the same for me."
"..."
Naruto sighed. "It's his decision. Also, he really won't be doing anything. He'll just be there so I can use him as an excus-, I mean, so he can prove that he'll do anything to save Rias."
"Oh, I see…" Asia said.
"Then let me come with you."
Naruto and Issei both looked at each other before saying together, "No."
"Why not?" Asia complained.
"It's far too dangerous for you to be there. Especially since you were a holy maiden. It might not go so well with the other devils. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand."
Issei smiled. "Glad you understand Asia. Then, we'll be off. The thing, that I asked you for?"
"I'll get it no-"
"I won't' need it."
ASia looked back with a shocked look on her face. "Why not?"
"Because this guy here's going to be doing the fighting."
Asia widened her eyes, then bowed. "Naruto-san, please take good care of Issei, and, bring back Rias-sama."
"I will."
Asia then hesitantly leaned in towards Issei, planted a small kiss on his right cheek, then left the room with her face red as a tomato.
"Thank you…," Issei said seemingly into thin air. Then he turned to see a grinning Naruto.
Naruto yelled, "LET'S GO CRASH AN ENGAGEMENT PARTY!"
"I still don't see why I have to wear a wedding dress. It's an engagement party." Rias said annoyed by the fact that Riser had forced her to wear the dress that was currently on her.
A flame appeared near the center of the room and Riser stepped out.
The maid beside her protested, "No males are allowed in here!"
"Riser just needs a word with his lady and he will be off."
"What do you want Riser? Also, I still don't see the point of me wearing this dress."
"Riser believes that his lady should look distinguished for the high class devils that are here to celebrate our union. That is all. You will have a much finer dress for the actual wedding. A dress made of flaming feathers!"
Then he just left laughing.
Rias looked at the ceiling dumbfoundedly. "Seriously? A dress of flaming feathers? I'd better better off going and killing myself."
Rias sighed. 'Issei…'
Riser appeared at the front of the ballroom with a flash of fire and a cry that sounded like a bird.
"Greetings renowned devils of the underworld. On behalf of the house of Phenex, Riser would like to thank each and every one of you for coming today. This is a historic moment for the world devils, and I want the dear guests to be the first to know. Two great dynasties are about to become one. Lord Riser of the Phenex clan shall wed Lady Rias of illustrious house of Gremory."
Riser pointed his hand to a blank space near the front. "Now, I would like to present to you, my bride!"
Rias slowly appeared from a magic circle with an annoyed expression, when the door suddenly burst open.
Two guards walked in, well, no, that wouldn't be correct. Two guards were dragged in were tossed onto the floor.
"Delivery of two douchebags. Hope you enjoy it."
Rias, Kiba, Akeno, and Koneko all widened their eyes, and muttered, "Naruto…"
Okay I promise that I'll start on the chapter after this right away.
I'll try to get it out tomorrow or two days later. Hopefully it will be a little longer than this one here.
Hope you enjoyed!
