CHAPTER 2
(let me just say thank you to all of you who reviewed my story, it means alto that people like my story, and now I'll respond to some of them.
Scarface101: I'll see what I can do, but OI think I can find a way.
Blood enraged: good idea I'll go back and fix it.
and to all who wanted a new chapter here it is.
"Attention asshats on aboard the St. Jones, you are currently under siege by the The Black Lagoon trading company, you have something we require. Our demands are simple, turn off your engines and through down a ladder, failure to comply within 3 minutes, will result in your ship getting blown the fuck up by my friend with an RPG here, and be warned she has an itchy trigger finger, your 3 minutes start now." Finished Fox, as he lowered a megaphone and took a seat next to Revy. "How'd I do?"
"You were good, you sure you were a ninja and not a pirate. I can tell you'd make one hell of a pirate." Replied revy as she steadied her aim on the St. Jones. Fox checked his watch and counted down from 5.
"Well Dutch, have they complied?" Asked Naruto after he counted one.
"Nope, let Revy take the shot." Said Dutch into his blue tooth.
"Gotcha, Dutch said you can shoot now."
"About damn time." Revy smirked and took her shot. The grenade hit the hull of the ship, and all the men aboard were panicking. 'til Revy's voice came from the megaphone, "Alright, assholes my rockets can move faster than your ship and if you think of sending a distress signal, we'll be out of here faster than they can respond. So stop your engines or else." Revy turned off the megaphone, and waited. Naruto then grabbed a pair of binoculars and gave a snicker. He handed the binoculars to Revy and said.
"Little white flag, just off the port side." And true to his words, there was little white flag, hanging from a rope just off the port side of the boat. After taking their loot the Lagoon returns to Roanapur. Roanapur the city of thieves, murderers, and cons. It was home now, not that Fox was complaining, he felt a change like this would be good for him. Only problem, there was nothing to do, absolutely nothing. It was soooo boring. That is until Naruto talked to Balalaika and asked if there was anything she needed. She told him there were people that Hotel Moscow had some bounties that needed to be taken care of. Naruto decided eh what the hell. Soon after killing many a people Naruto had a reputation around Roanapur, he was like the grim reaper, killing anyone who has done wrong, and has a sizable bounty on their head. Now Naruto liked having allot of money, who doesn't, but he wasn't too greedy, he shared some of his money with the Lagoon, under the alias Not A Regular Uto(see what i did there).
And that's what brings us to this situation, NAruto was about to take his last bounty when his cell phone went off(he got one from Balalaika once he started taking bounties, easier for the Lagoon to get in touch) Alerting his target of his location. Acting quickly Naruto went in for the kill. With a heavy sigh Naruto answered "This better be good, you almost cost me a bounty Dutch."
"Sorry Fox, but we've got a new delivery to make. Revy's screaming at me to tell you to wear the shirt she bought you." Said Dutch in his regular calm, cool, collective voice.
"Yeah well tell her she can kiss my fine ass." Naruto hung up the phone.
Naruto used a shushin to "teleport" to a few blocks from the HQ. He saw the guys getting into the car. He picked up the pace and jumped on the roof, He peeked down and said "Yo", scaring the shit out of the people inside.
"Don't do that, the next time a bullet's going through that head of yours." To prove her point Revy pulled out her cutlass(one of her guns) and poked his head with it.
"Oh Revy, you poor, poor fool, you couldn't shoot me if you tried." Said Naruto as he jumped through the window and landed on the seat. "What's the job?"
"Simplepickup job, we'll tell you once we get to the ship." Dutch told Naruto
Naruto nodded and was ready to take a small nap. That is until Revy poked him and asked "Hey Fox, where's that hawaiian shirt I bought for you."
"You mean the incredibly ugly one, I wouldn't be caught dead in that thing, wearing it should be some sort of punishment." Said Naruto
"What's that supposed to mean, you saying I have no taste?" Said Revy pointing her gun at Naruto again.
Naruto gave a heavy sigh and kept his mouth shut, and looked out the window. He decided it would be a good idea to catch up on his sleep. After 30 minutes the car came to a stop. They got on the boat, Naruto got out his headphones and ipod and listened to Shoot me by Royal Republic. Everything seemed to be going well when his doujutsu alerted him of the oncoming threat. He opened his eyes suddenly and ran for the deck. Revy and Dutch looked at him weird. They followed him up only to see 7 speed boats coming towards them, fast. The looked at Naruto, who had a fox like grin on his face, and his two swords drawn. 'I still don't believe that he can call those things at will just by touching his sides' thought Revy "Revy, I think these asshats need to be taught a lesson don't you?" Revy then got a feral grin on her face
"want to make a little bet again? who ever gets to the boat in the back wins" Asked Revy as she drew her guns.
"You must really like buying me drinks Revy." Naruto said turning his head to her. He had his usual flox grin on, and she had her feral one. They looked at each other, no uttering any words, they crank their music, and get to work.
(POV Revy)
I jump towards the first boat on the right, grenade launcher in one hand, Uzi in the other. I start tearing these fuckers apart. Dipshits dropping left and right. I finish the first ship with 9 kills, I then jump for the next boat and start tearing their shit up, I fire a grenade to the boat across the way, there was no boom. After killing 12 more guys, I make my way to the third boat, after killing 4 guys I through the uzi overboard, then I hear the explosion of the grenade, I pull out my cutlass and start shooting. I killed 10 bitches on the third boat and when I make it to the oat at the back, Fox wasn't there, but a quivering Ching was. I waited a few seconds and heard the sound of feet hitting metal,I look over and saw Fox half covered in blood, and damn if he didn't look sexy before he does now. He looks up and sees me pointing my cutlass at Ching. He yells a loud FUCK, puts his swords away and stomps off in huff, I got myself a few free drinks and got to kill Ching, all in all a good day. (little does she know its about to go to shit.)
(POV Naruto, before revy wins)
I leap off towards the first boat on the left, both swords drawn, and started cutting these shitheads to pieces, after cutting 12 people down I rush to the front of the boat and jump to the next one. After killing 5 idiots, I hear Revy fire a grenade towards the boat I was currently on, without even thinking, I turn towards the grenade, use one of my swords as a place to rest my arm, I kick the grenade under the detonation point, and have it sail off in the air towards the third boat on my side. After killing the other 10 fuckers on this boat I jump high into the air and met the grenade in the sky. I kicked the grenade on the bottom(the part that doesn't explode) and have it launch towards third boat. Once it hits its mark with a satisfying BOOM, I use my charge style to push myself towards the boat in the to see Revy with her cutlass pointed at Ching "FUCK" I yell as I stomp off grumbling about lucky pirates who got here faster because I had to take unnecessary air time.
(regular POV)
After Revy unloaded a bullet in Chings head, even though he was trying to talk her out of it, we head back to the boat. I turned to Dutch and said, "So Dutch, why don't you tell us what we're really here for." Dutch smirks
"never could get anything past those eyes huh Fox?" He puts the boat on cruise and lets it run at a smooth 32 kpm. He brings them to the table in the bridge and pulls out a map and points to a location, "We've been hired to get to a sunken ship that has a painting that was supposed to be transported to The Fuehrer Hitler's family back in WW2, never got there because french bomb boats got them with depth charges when the Germans submerged. We find it, get it, and give it to the client, simplepickup job." Naruto nodded.
Dutch decided that Naruto and Revy would be the ones to get the painting. "Hey Fox, I have to ask you something." stated Revy.
"What's on your mind Revy?" Asked Naruto
"During our little challenge, I fired a grenade at the boat you were on, but I didn't hear the explosion till later, what the hell happened." Asked Revy
"Well, well,well looks like we're connected. It's this weird thing that happens to me when I travel across dimensions."
'He still thinks I'll fall for that crap?' thought Revy.
"Whenever I get close to someone We start to think alike, kinda get into each others head, know what the other one's thinking. Like when you shot that grenade, I knew you were gonna shoot it, so I then kicked it and used it for later. Pretty cool hn?" Naruto finished
"yeah, yeah, get ready, we're over the target." Said Revy, as she double checked her water rifle, a gun that could fire underwater, and gave one to Narto. Naruto could tell she didn't believe him. He shook his head, but so long as she didn't call him on it, they would be fine.
Deep underwater Naruto and Revy saw the ship and approached. The door was easy for Naruto to open and once they entered. The came to a door that was only half submerged in water. Opening this door revealed all the lifeless corpses of the ex-nazis. Naruto and Revy decided to divide and conquer to find the fucking painting. Naruto opened one of the doors and saw the painting in the "firm" grasp of a skeleton. he went to grab it and started talking to no one in particular "Heh hello beautiful, What's beauty like you hanging around this bag of bones. Revy I found the painting!" Naruto yelled the last part, and since half of the boat was in the water, the sound carried.
5 MInutes later Revy came back with a bag "What's in the bag?"
"Silver metals." Was her simple answer
"Are you saying… you're robbing from corpses!?" Asked Naruto, he was always sensitive about people defiling the dead ever since Orochimaru made him fight his father in the chunin exams.
"We've been paid to get that painting, I figure, why not get some extra money on the side." Revy gave a feral grin and a deep chuckle after she finished.
"Revy these people used to be living beings, how would you like it if someone came to your death bed and stoll your cutlasses?" Asked Naruto a little bitterly.
Revy gave him a dead look. She gave a heave sigh and said in monotone "Look Fox let me explain how the world works. There are two forces that run this world, money and power. One is more powerful than the other, and that is money. These people are dead, they're not gonna care if you steal from them."
"Listen Revy, normally I'd be all for getting rich, but those medals are valuable to the people, and again I bring up, how would you like it if someone took your cutlass' and sold them to some random person hun?" Naruto retorted
"what ever we're taking to long, just drop this and we'll….." Revy couldn't finish as the boat got rocked by explosions.
"What the fuck is going on out there?" Naruto asked pissed. "I got the painting lets get out." You didn't have to tell Revy twice. Naruto put the painting in a waterproof bag and they both booked it to the exit, More explosions went off and Revy was lost grip on her loot, she tried to grab it but Naruto grabbed her first and swam out.
Only to be at gunpoint with a bunch of Germans. Fuck was the only word that came to my mind, Without even thinking I dive back into the water followed quickly by Revy. He turned around to see some of the neo-nazi's coming after him. He aimed his water rifle at some of the nazi's that followed them under. Naruto and Revy were kicking some serious ass, but suddenly a cannon ball came whizzing by his head. Realizing he was outgunned and out manned. He decided to surrender.
"Haha, with this painting, the next ages of Arian believers will have something to look at when we continue what the fuhrer started!" His men gave a loud celebratory shout.
Meanwhile back with the lagoon. Revy was even more pissed that they lost the painting, and had to retreat. "Please tell me we're not just gonna let them go?" She said still pissed.
"Of course we're going after it, we've got to get paid, don't we?" came the voice of Dutch.
Dutch and Revy were the ones to go out and get the painting back. Naruto and Benny were told to stay behind and keep the engine running. Appon boarding the ship, Naruto used his Eyes of True Sight to see what was going on with the two on the ship. He saw Dutch and Revy having a small argument, and he saw that neither of them noticed the nazi sneaking up on them.
Naruto rushed to the deck, pulled out a sniper rifle and without looking through the scope fired a shot that nailed the Nazi right between the eyes and scared the shit out of Revy and Dutch. Naruto continued to take pot shots at Nazi's and made Revy and Dutch look around to figure out what was happening. Then Revy heard in her head, "keep moving i'll cover you". Revy didn't question, she didn't care, she and Dutch made their way towards the captain.
Naruto went back to the hold and waited for the two to return. Benny walked up to Naruto and asked "How did you shoot all those guys? You didn't even look down the scope."
"Don't have to, my eyes of true sight tell me where to fire and I'll always hit my mark, think of my eyes as a scope I always have on." Replied Naruto as he took a puff from a sig. Half an hour later Revy and Dutch return to the ship. Revy looks and Naruto and him to her, they say nothing and go on with their separate ways and wait till they hit dry land.
"Hey Fox." called Dutch "we're running out of weapons and need to get more. We have a shipment coming from our source, you might be able to convince them to give you a gun of your own, those swords must be getting dull,I want you and Revy to go get them. That cool?"
"Sure I'll make the run. All depends on Revy." Naruto finished his smoke and pulled out another one, and offered one to Dutch.
Dutch accepts the offer and lights up "I'll go ask her." Dutch said As he walked towards where Revy was.
(Well that was a bitch and a half to write. I now have more respect for those who have 100k+ word stories, it took alot out of me to write this. The weird thing is I have to watch an episode of the anime to get into mood to write this, I feel I can`t do this universe justice unless I'm in the right mood, I know it sounds corny but it's how I am. Sorry this came late, but next chapter we're gonna have Naruto and Revy's version of the argument, and we're gonna have the introduction to the twins of terror. Before I go, the pairing in this fic is, that Revy will have feelings for Fox, but she won't know what they are so she'll treat him differently from how she treats others, but Eda will actually develop a huge crush on Naruto(you'll see how I handle it) see ya then, oh and bonuse points if you can find the hidden Air Gear refrence, here's a hint, its only 3 lines )
