town in wind country
Naruto walked into a small town, in full armor and his sword on his back. The reason he was there was his usual, do something to sway there alligance away from the existing government, and move on, self explainitory. He went into a tavern to see what was the towns problems. When he sat down he took off his helmet and a bartender came over to him.
"What can I get you?" She asked
"Get me a glass of sake." Naruto said, and she left
While lounging around waiting for his drink, he noticed a tense atmosphere in the room. Everyone seemed to be waiting for something, and be prepared for a fight. When he turned his head the other way, Naruto saw several men surrounding a woman. His drink didn't come yet, so he decided to investigate.
"Alright pale girl, time for answers." One of the said, with 1 foot blade in his hand
"Please, I swear I didn't do anything." She replied
"Excuse me gentlemen, explain to me whats going on here." Naruto sternly said, looming over the group
"And who are you?" Another with a wood cutting axe asked
"Lets just say someone who believes attacking a woman with a weapon of any kind is very unkind, if you catch the drift." Naruto emphisized the last part, and they discreetly left
"Thank you so much. I don't know what they would do to me, but it would not be good." the woman thanked Naruto desperatly
Looking her over, Naruto just couldn't figure out why they would want to harm her. She was 5'7", long black hair all the way to her hips, and she wore a simple green dress with a apron and boots. Despite living in the desert, she had very pale skin, almost like the color of snow. Her eyes were a fiery orange color, and her face was a very inviting one. Her body in general was inviting, a perfect mix of athletic and curvy figure.
"Your welcome, its part of the job." Naruto replied
"If its not too much trouble, I need some help with something." She asked
"Well... alright. I never could resist helping a pretty face." Naruto replied, and he wolfed down his drink, while the woman blushed a little
"Thank you, it may be a bit of work, but it would help me a great deal." She answered
"By the way, what is your name?" Naruto asked
"Atlalus." She replied
"I don't know why, but I've heard that name before." Naruto pondered, but shrugged it off and followed her out of the tavern
Atlalus led Naruto out of the town to a sand dune with a dead tree on it. There was a small hatch by the tree, and she slid down a old ladder. Naruto however slowly climbed down and when he got down, he noticed they were in some kind of ancient tomb.
"Be careful, we don't want to wake the guards." She whispered
"The guards? Who would guard this place?" Naruto whispered back
Coincidentally, something did hear him. A statue activated, and the grey color switched to white and gold trim. It looked like a human in full white and gold plate armor. From the wall it pulled out a large, 5' 7" tall axe, with a massive one sided axe blade, that shown white. It swung the massive axe at Atlalus, and would have cut her in half if Naruto hadn't stopped it with his sword. He kicked the axe back and then decapitated the statue warrior, effectively destroying it.
"The hell was that?" Naruto asked
"That is a sun guard, there eternal warriors that guard this ancient temple from intruders. I could never get past them, but you can." She begged and explained
"Stand back." Naruto said and cracked his neck, then noticed he forgot to put on his helmet, in which he did.
He walked into a room, and he saw only one door at the other end. As soon as he made a step towards it, a dozen of sun guards came out of the walls to surround him. Shortly afterwards, a larger version called a Hyperion Guard came out of the wall. Instead of a axe, it wielded 2 golden broadswords. It towered over Naruto at 13 feet tall. The first three charged, but Naruto easily swung his sword and lopped all three of there heads. Another tried to attack him from behind, but he was just as easily dispatched by being smashed in the face with the pummel of the sword.
'I don't see how she was afraid of these things, there easy to defeat.' Naruto thought and he easily parried the others attacks.
The guard then did a roundhouse swing low to try and slice Naruto in half, but Naruto easily jumped over it and landed on the living statues face. He took aim and drove his sword home right in its eye, effectively 'killing' it. When Naruto jumped off, the force pushed the body back into a wall and crumbled into dust. The remaining one's backed off and ran for a unknown reason, and the wall the Hyperion Guard smashed into opened, revealing a alter, with a strange spiked shrine with blood dripping out of it.
"Thank you so much for helping me, I never would have gotten past those guards." Atlatus said to Naruto as she walked to the alter
"I fail to see why, if a fly landed on those thing they would have crumbled." Naruto replied
"I suppose you want a reward?" She asked, her voice now very sultry
"Um... that be nice." Naruto said, now sorta under a trance
She lead him to the alter, and then layed him down on it. Then she reared back, and put her hands in the air, and a blood red aura appeared on her hands.
"Alter of the night, essence of blood, grant me back my power to take my mantle. Allow me to rise as what I truly am, Atlatus, the greater demon of vampires! With this power, I enthrall this mortal as my eternal servant, for his service in my return!" She roared, and Naruto rose off the alter, and bowed to her, as her eyes changed so the pupil is a bright yellow, and red lines now streched from her forehead over her eyes and down the sides of her neck
A week later
"I hate coming out in this country General Ventros. The heat and my fur do not mix." Kuroi complained to the general next to him
"Sir, I'm the one in plate armor weighing well over 100 pounds, if anyone's to complain, it should be me." He replied
Ventros was about as tall as Rectangle, only skinnier and had golden tan on his skin. Underneath his helmet was naturally grey hair, not from age, and he had emerald green eyes. On his side was a katana with a red and blue hilt, and for a guard it was two seperate guards on each side in the form of a tritent shape. In his left hand he had a regular wood and steel kite shaped shield.
"Where he hell did Naruto disappear to? We are running out of time on the deal, and I do not want my head at the chopping block." Kuroi said angerly
"The last sighting of Commander in chief Naruto was in this town, maybe we can ask someone on where he is?" Ventros replied
The two looked around town, and it had an even more tense atmosphere than when Naruto visited. If there was even a spark, these people would go into a blood thirsty mob. Ventro's found a beggar sitting on the porch of the tavern.
"Excuse me, have you see a person with multi colored armor come through here recently?" He asked
"Yes, he went off with a wench to the dead tree out of town, and we never saw him ever again. Feel sorry for him really, that woman was always dangerous." the woman beggar replied
"Where is this tree?" Ventros asked
"Outside of town that way on a sand dune, can't miss it." She directed
"Thank you. Sir, I found where Naruto went, follow me!" Ventros called to Kuroi and they went to the tree
"Okay, now where could he have gone?" Kuroi asked, and accidently kicked the door off the hatch
"Great find boss." Ventros said
"Ow! At the expense of my toe!" Kuroi shot back
Both climbed down the ladder, and found the remaining sun guards barricading the first door way.
"Who are you and what are you doing?" Kuroi asked
"We are sun guards, created protectors of the blood shrine. We were created by the ancients to protect the alter from Atlatus, the greater demon of vampires." One of them said
"We were doing our job till some guy in rainbow colored armor came in and destroyed our kin, and help her." Another added
"Funny thing is, we are looking for the person you describe. Figures he'd get tricked, he always couldn't resist a pretty face. I remember the time he jumped a lava ravine full of fire sharks just to have sex with a naked woman on the other side." Kuroi explained
"We can help you recover the shrine if you help us release Naruto from her enthrallment." Ventros asked
"Deal." One of them quickly answered, and readied there weapons
They tore down the barricade and the group rushed in, to see Atlatus waiting for them. Out of the shadows Naruto slashed horizontally, nearly cutting off a sun guards head.
"You guys hold Naruto, I got her!" Kuroi yelled and changed into his wolf form, though now it was not a wolf, but a 8 foot tall werewolf
"A filthy mutt like you stand up to me? Bring it furball." Atlatus shot back and lunged at him, and landed on his back
Out of her fingers came 3 inch claws, and she dug into his back, ripping through fur and flesh. Kuroi in pain grabbed her then threw her into a pillar, though she got up just fine. The wolf monster surrounds its arms with black lightning, and slashes furiously, attempting to defeat her quickly with speed and powerful attacks. Being a greater demon however made her far tougher to kill than imagined. She easily picked up Kuroi, and threw him into the remaining sun guards, destroying them. Naruto forced Ventros on the defencive, and even if he attacked, Naruto's armor couldn't be pierced.
"This isn't working!" Ventros yelled, then ducked behind his shield to block another sword cut
"Theres got to be a way to get her control out of his head." Kuroi replied
"Why not just use electro shock therepy?" Ventros joked
"No, thats a great idea. If I can shock Naruto's head enough, without killing him, it could get rid of it." Kuroi said and grabbed Naruto's head in both hands
He easily lifted his friend off the ground, and sent huge currents of black lightning into his head. It did something, as Atlatus now was experiencing major head trauma. The reason was she controlled Naruto through a psychic link, and that also sent the energy through it. Finally it got to the point where she broke it, and Naruto was free.
"Owww. My head. Kuroi, Ventros? What are you doing... oh my god vampire!" Naruto screamed the last bit out like a scared little girl
"Yep, he's back." Kuroi said, changing back to human form
"You will pay for that wolf, now I will... oh crap he's free." Atlatus said
"Die vampire!" Naruto yelled and charged her
"I've had enough trouble for one day." She muttered and teleported away
"Hey, where did she go?" Naruto asked confused as he desperatly searched the room
"She's the greater demon of vampires, she can do that." Kuroi said
"Okay, now I feel dirty. I think the memories of what happened are kicking in." Naruto said, now disgusted over what he did the past few days
"You've been though worse. Come on, she's not one for revenge." Kuroi said as they started to leave
"You sure?" Naruto asked
"In the millennium that she's been around, not once in recorded demon history has she ever claimed revenge on a single being." Kuroi answered
"Ironic if you think about it." Ventros chipped in
"Hello, I had sex who knows how many times with a greater demon here." Naruto said, catching up to you
"Well you are now the first being to ever live and tell the tale." Kuroi said
"I thought you said she doesn't claim revenge?" Naruto asked
"She doesn't, but I didn't say anything about her eating her thralls in the act of sex." Kuroi replied, to which Naruto got ghostly pale, and didn't say anything for the rest of the day
MHG: I have to thank my friend lastlife0726 for giving me the basic idea for this story. Oh and also to the person in the review who did give a idea... I already was going to do that idea, in a way. Though you did stumble apon chapter 14, so congrats on that. As for the next chapter, I thought of this one myself, after 20 hours thinking about it, and not all at once. So next time, we see new types of dragons and what happens when they are completely not what you'd expect from dragons.
