Chapter 6

The Test

Cain's POV

I woke up and checked the time it was the day of Naruto's ninja exam so I got up and woke Naruto up I made breakfast for him and then we got ready to leave for the academy we hopped on the roofs to get to the academy faster.

On the way we met with Logan and Sasuke and we all went to the academy me and logan sent Naruto and Sasuke into the school and we left to meet up with the outcasts.

After a few minutes we made it to Training ground 7 and met up with the outcasts "alright guys get into your teams and practice, Team 8 go train near the water, team 10 the forest, and team 9 go to the waste land team seven we stay here" I said.

Everyone left except my teammates Logan and Kitty "so Cain what's on the agenda today" asked Logan chakra control, taijutsu, kenjutsu, and ninjutsu" I said "got it buddy" said Logan we started our workout for the day the three of us started running up and down the trees.

The Hokage's office

"So you plan to give Cain this sword" Hiruzen asked an unknown woman "yes" said the women "what blade is this" asked Hiruzen "It's called Kirikura but it's also called the Kumo sword it's said to contain the soul and power of the last great demon lord but first let's see if Cain is worthy just as Ruby and Kushina said he is" said the woman "who are you" asked Hiruzen just an apprentice to the red death" said the woman and she left.

Me and Logan we're doing kenjutsu training and Kitty was watching us while practicing her Mokuton and as we finished I heard clapping I turned around expecting to see the other outcasts but there stood a woman with brown hair and eyes in a sensual looking kunoichi outfit "who are you" I asked "my name is Mai Shiranui of the Shiranui clan and an apprentice to Kushina Uzumaki like you" the woman now identified as Mai said "aren't the Shiranui known for their fire style ninjutsu" asked Logan "yeah even more than the Sharingan and Uchiha" said Kitty.

"So what do you want" I asked "I am to test you and see if you are worthy to wield the legendary Kurikara and if so train you in its use" said Mai Cain got out his old Ninjato out of its sheath and Mai took a blade from her chest they ran towards each other and started to fight Mai started thinking about her last talk with Kushina before she passed on.

"What do you mean you want me to give this demon child the sword why can't you do it" asked Mai to a red haired woman "this demon child as you call him is my adoptive son and the older brother of my son Naruto I want him to be able to master one of the most powerful demonic swords on the planet and you specifically because if the nine tails escapes I might not be around any more to give it to Cain and take care of Naruto also you are the only one who knows how to use their power he's stubborn and hard headed you'd like him" said the woman "Kushina" said Mai "Mai I need you to take care of him he's a good kid who just wants a family to protect" said Kushina.

Flashback over

"Wind style: decapitating slash" mai shouted and waves of sharp wind came at me I dodged and brought out my own jutsu out "Lightning style: lightning slash" I said a wave of electricity came out of my blade she dodged my attack then she appeared in front of me knocked my ninjato out of my hands and slashed me across my arms and chest.

"Congratulations you pass my test" Mai said to me "what I asked before she died Kushina came to me to ask me to give you this blade a blade she and Minato spent the better part of five years tracking down for you" she said "this is a blade I'm sure you've heard of Kurikara" said Mai "no it can't be my father hid that sword far away before he sealed himself inside it" I said taking the blade then an image came to my mind "hello son it's been a long time looks like we're partners" said a giant nine tailed fox "I thought I was rid of you" I said "I knew that one day you would gain this sword so I sealed myself inside so you could become my Jinchuuriki" said my father and I came out of my mind.

"Damn it guys we have to deal with my dad again" I said "what we thought he was dead" said Logan "so did I" I said "ok now I will teach you to control the power of the Kurikara" Mai said "we start tomorrow" said Mai finished and left.

"Alright guys let's go find the others" I said we found the other teams and we all went to the academy team nine left to go find their human counterparts while the rest of us went to the academy.

"Cain we all passed" I heard Naruto shout "great job Naruto I knew you could do it" I said and we all went home for the night.

AN: Ok chapter 6 done and just so all of you know Mai and Cains relationship will be similar to Shura and Rin's relationship in Blue Exorcist minus Mai getting drunk all the time and just wearing a bikini top and she is based of the character from king of fighters of the same name but I have never seen or played the game so my knowledge of her is limited and the Mizuki incident will be explained next chapter I just don't feel like writing it since Naruto passed.
