Blood on the Dagger Part 2
I own nothing, all of content goes to proper owners
While Kuroi and Naruto got used to guarding Hinata quickly, she didn't get used to it. She was used to guards around the Hyuga residence, but not one walking beside her all the time. While one was watching Hinata, the other would try and figure out who is trying to kill her, but details were being hard to find. On this day however, one would smack them right in the face. Naruto and Hinata were walking in the market place, unaware of a black leather armor assassin following them.
"Move the Hydra you idiots." the one stalker whispered to the rest
In a back ally, there where four others with spears, and a massive hydra in the middle of them. Its massive body was the size of a rhino, with 5 long snake like necks, holding snake like heads, with large, knife like teeth in its mouth, and spikes decorated the back of the necks, head, and back down to a flat topped club with spikes around the sides. Its thick hide was a ominous charcoal black. The beast fell asleep because it just migrated to this area, like the hagraven. Little didn't it know, the humans would use it in there own places without it knowing.
"Hang on, I got a scroll of Mayhem. That should do it." One of them said
He said a small incantation, and a red aura formed on his hands. He swirled them to continued spell, and then sent a ball of red aura into the Hydra. The creature woke, and a fire burned in its eyes, a fire of pure hatred. It was a empty hatred however, as the creature felt no hatred to anyone in particular, just a general hatred for all around it. The goons scattered and the beast charged out of the ally, spewing toxic gas from its mouth and its jaws snapping at anything it could get its teeth on. It saw Hinata and Naruto, then charged.
"Move Hinata!" Naruto yelled and tackled her out of the way
"What the hell is... holy crap!" Kuroi said as he came out of his apartment and onto the street, but jumped out of the way of the hydra
"Nice to see your awake." Naruto chuckled to Kuroi
"I'm pretty sure its illegal to own one of those people!" Kuroi yelled
The monster turned around, and the far right head tried to bite Kuroi. Desperately Kuroi held the snapping jaws back by grabbing the back of its head. Unfortunately its spikes made it hard. Naruto charged the far left head and cut it off at about the halfway point on the neck. However the beasts true power was shown as two new heads grew in its place, and the stump of the former neck dissolved into the body.
"How do you kill this thing?!" Naruto yelled
"Have the faintest idea." Kuroi struggled to say
"Be careful boys, one of those heads breaths toxic fire!" Draco called
As soon as he said that in a bit of irony, the left middle head breathed the toxic flames. Naruto rolled out of the way, gasping for clean air. The head left to the one Kuroi held onto tried to bite him, but a kick in the face stopped it. The middle right head grabbed Naruto, and then swallowed him, seeing a bulge in its throat.
"Naruto!" Kuroi and Hinata yelled in unison
When they though Naruto was dead, the monster suddenly lurched. The head that was attacking Kuroi stopped trying to eat him, and the snake was acting like it had severe stomach cramps. Blood dripped from each heads maw, and a expression of extreme pain and agony in there faces. The beast roared its last, and fell in a heap of hide, bone, and muscle.
"Buddy." Kuroi mumbled
"Help me out of here!" A voice was heard from inside the hydra
"He's alive." Hinata said, hands cupped over her mouth in sheer awe
"Help!" Naruto yelled
"Move you idiots! Start carving!" Draco yelled to a group of Shinobi with swords
The shinobi started using Kenjutsu on the dead mass, but the hide was tougher than expected. Finally, Kuroi grabbed one of the necks, and ripped it out of its base neck joint, and Naruto fell out. He was covered in blood, digestive juices, and other fluids.
"Welcome back. How was it in there?" Draco asked
"Need me, I'll be taking a shower." Naruto replied and left for the apartment
The assassins however we not too happy there plan failed, and needed to think of a new strategy. Kuroi smelled them, and changed into his wolf form to pursue.
"Run! Killer wolf!" one of them yelled and the five ran away fast
Though they ran, Kuroi's speed gave him an advantage. He tackled one and broke his legs to prevent him from running. The remaining four scattered, knowing he could only follow one of them at a time.
"Shadow clone jutsu!" Kuroi yelled and three clones darted off after the others
The real Kuroi was on the lead assassin, and lunged at him. His prey however took a dagger from his belt and jabbed it into the wolfs shoulder. Kuroi smacked him with his tail to stun him, and then with the momentum he had from turning his body, slashed his chest with his claws. The assassin dropped to his knees and then was dragged by the scruff of his neck back to the others that were captured.
'I still don't get who these guys are, and why would they want a innocent girl like Hinata? Isn't there some corrupt daymio or something for them to kill instead' Kuroi though as he tied them up, and dissipated the clones
Shinobi guards dragged the tied up assassins away for questioning. Naruto came back after a quick shower, and had the juices off him.
"Okay, wheres Hinata?" Naruto asked
"I thought you'd keep an eye on her?" Kuroi asked
"Oh crap!" the both screamed in unison
They both then scowarded the village to find her, but they found her at the academy. Both of them face palmed at there stupidity.
"Get to work." Kuroi said and left
"Whatever." Naruto replied
Naruto went into the academy, still feeling stupid about looking for Hinata like that. He sat in a extra seat next to Hinata, and began reading the book of Xitherion they picked from the body. The book was very detailed in what it was describing; The whole book was teaching how to do taboo rituals and speaking of raping destruction on the world at large. Hinata looked over and was curious about what he was reading.
"What are you reading N-naruto?" Hinata asked
Naruto showed her a picture of a example of a ritual, Hinata cringed in fear, and didn't want to know anymore. The book just taught whoever read it how to indulge themselves in ultra violence, and then enjoy every second of it. He wondered if they would strike the girl in the hospital they tried to kill.
Hospital
The girl was on a hospital bed, breathing heavily. The nurse left quick to get medication. Just enough time for the assassin. He came in the window, stabbed her in the chest with his soul trap dagger, and left.
"Now the last will be killed on the altar." He said to himself
Back at the academy
'Why would someone want to resurrect a greater demon? Are these guys nuts?" Naruto thought as he flipped through a section that showed how to resurrect creatures from his army
He then heard a commotion outside, and Hinata was gone. This time, no matter how much he looked, he couldn't find her. He then went to Kuroi, and they both went to Draco.
"Well, those cult of Xitherion guys are really going for it." Draco said in intrigue
"What are you talking about?" They both asked in unison
"There the ones that are killing the girls around town." Draco replied
"If you knew, then why didn't you tell us!" They raged at the ancient dragon
"If I told you guys everything, then you'd get lazy and never want to do anything yourselves." Draco explained
The two then facepalmed at there stupidity the second time today. They then went back to the apartment, to prepare for battle
MHG: Next chapter is going to be mostly fighting, as if I'm complaining, it will be fun to write. Also, to answer all those questions on the stuff that is obviously skyrim, yes, I did you some elements, but thats only to try and get it off the ground. I promise later that I will get more origanal, like next chapter. I hope you all have a good day.
