Zack: Today's been somewhat of a great day, visiting the Eiffel Tower hasn't been more inspiring that already had me mapping out the next installment to this series and just for you my fans, I'll tell you what the title of the next installment is. It is 'Will Of An Angel'. Now you could go ahead and predict what might happen but I'm setting up some groundwork and possible hints in this story. Just to let you know, this story is broken up to three separate arcs, we're nearly done with this arc, just this chapter and we're done with the first arc.

Oh, also I've considering opening an account on DeviantArt where I'll try to hopefully illustrate some sketches and drawings of the characters. I'm not really a good drawer, my sketches look like a grade fiver did them.

Also too, I'm bumping up the rating of the story to T; a lot of stuff is heading to this story so just kinda be prepared for an unsuspecting thing.

Anyway, onwards with the story.

Through A Demon's Eyes
Chapter 5
Hellfire and Brimstone

Tak…
Tak…
Tak…

Kyuubi blitzed through the wave of enemies, paving a path for Amaru as she carried her fellow redhead, Sasuke following close with Naruto firmly secured on his arms.

"Remind me again how we can trust you?!" Tayuya roared to the crimson, sword-wielding beauty as she defended the smaller redhead that carried her.

"I'm your only hope of making your way through these guys!" Kyuubi replied smoothly as she cut down another Infected with the sword, Chaos.

Sasuke let out a scoff, catching the crimson beauty's attention as the two redhead in-between fidgeted from the hot glare Kyuubi was sending to the Uchiha behind them.

"We were doing fine without you" The Uchiha spoke, slamming his kunai down onto several twitching Infected, confirming their deaths.

"Demonic Arts: Curving Slash!" Kyuubi shouted as she swiped at the empty space in front of her, launching a wide, horizontal beam of her demonic chakra towards the horde of Infected, cutting clean through their flesh and bones, leaving them in severed chunks of flesh.

Amaru winced as she saw the jutsu hit, the redhead winced even more when the chunks of flesh just collapsed, launching several organs and bones out of the body and onto the bloody concrete. Bile rose to her throat but she forced it down; vomiting wouldn't help her one bit right now. However, the older redhead she carried let out a small smirk, seeing the eviscerated corpse. Twisting her head around, she glanced at the Uchiha.

"Tell ya the truth, she's a lot better than you at slaying these things or have you forgotten how Uzumaki saved you?" Tayuya retorted, forming a smirk on Kyuubi's lips when she heard it.

Sasuke said nothing, only making this more amusing for the two redheads as the group continued forward, pushing through the crowd of enemies, knowing that they would make out of this alive.

Thunk…

A column of fire appeared in front of the crimson beauty, halting the demonic vixen as she recognized the move before ducking as a clawed hand emerged from the fire, swiping its talons where Kyuubi's head use to be.

Down low, Kyuubi swung her legs into the disappearing fire, swiping a set of legs, knocking the source off her feet. As the crimson beauty went to drive her sword into her target, a bloody hand from the Infected grabbed her, pinning it down as a fireball flew towards her face, bound to hit its target.

Gritting her teeth, Kyuubi jabbed Chaos into the Infected behind her who relinquished his grip on her, allowing her to break free and dodge out of the way of the fiery fireball heading her way.

Retreating to safe distance, the crimson beauty glanced at the pyromaniac, her magnificent crimson eyes recognizing the maroon haired individual that stood in front of her.

"Haruno, you'd best commit suicide lest you suffer my wrath!" The scarlet temptress growled, clutching Chaos tightly as she bared her razor sharp canines at the currently alive Sakura Haruno.

Sakura remained stoic, her face emotionless as fire ignited on her hands, forming into massive fireballs that burned with intensity.

"I'm not afraid of a washed up Bijuu" Sakura replied as she threw a fireball into the ground, controlling it to swirl around each other, thus creating a fire tornado.

"Motherfucker!" Sasuke roared as he shoved Amaru away from the path of the spinning inferno, barely getting out of the way himself.

Kyuubi scoffed, side stepping out of the way as she rushed in, intent on slicing Haruno into pieces. Driving the sword forward, Kyuubi growled in annoyance as Sakura easily side-stepped the attack. Twisting sideways, Kyuubi sliced the Chaos horizontally, aiming for the maroon haired girl's waist. The attack never reached as Sakura dropped into splits, her scalp mere millimeters from the blade.

Seeing the opportunity, the demonic girl swiped the scarlet temptress legs, knocking the bijuu onto the floor, landing flat on her back as a growl ripped from her throat. Standing up to full height, Sakura went to stomp her heel onto Kyuubi's face when a red blur slammed into her, knocking her straight into the concrete beam that stood proudly amongst the chaos.

Glancing up to her savior, Kyuubi's eyes landed on the demonic form of Naruto Uzumaki, his facial features tainted by animalistic traits; canines were longer than before, his trademark whiskers were darker and thicker, his ears had grown a sharp tip, his hair was completely blood red and dark ink had surrounded his eyes. Helping the fallen bijuu up, Kyuubi couldn't help but get turned on at his animalistic traits. If a demonic being took a first glance at him, they'd easily mistake him for a hanyou, a powerful one at that. It turns out that Naruto could handle his Demon state just fine.

"Hand me the sword" Naruto demanded, his voice almost an animal growl.

"Its name is Chaos" Kyuubi replied, handing the sword over to Uzumaki's hand.

Naruto directed a glare at her, one that slightly caught Kyuubi off guard at how threatening it made him appear. His 'Demon' Eyes were glowing a ruby red as his chakra flared, forming an intimidating silhouette of a fox around him.

"So you're up and running Ruto-Kun, ready to have lots of fun?" Sakura asked menacingly as a silver sword formed on her palm.

Sending a questioning stare at Kyuubi, the scarlet mistress glared daggers at Sakura.

"What sword is that?" Naruto asked as he pointed Chaos to the silver sword that Sakura carried.

"It's one my best inventions. It's titled 'Temptress' and due to its unholy steel, it channels demonic chakra a lot more proficiently than 'Chaos' but due it's weight, it requires a lot of effort to swing it and takes a combination of a strong arm and stamina to properly use it, a fallback that doesn't seem to apply to Haruno" Kyuubi responded as the Uzumaki glanced over to the approaching Haruno.

"I can't wait to dice me a Bijuu" Sakura spoke up, Temptress dangling in her hands.

"Your battle is with me Haruno" Naruto growled, immediately standing in front of Kyuubi(who was quickly offended that the Uzumaki thought she couldn't handle herself) as Sakura charged, Temptress driving forward to Naruto.

Shoving Kyuubi away, Naruto deflected the jab, leaving Haruno open as he took the opportunity; kicking the demonic girl backwards. Recovering from the kick, Sakura twisted in mid air and landed back on her feet, a devious smirk on her face.

"So that's how your gonna play.." Sakura replied, twirling the Temptress in her hands.

"Did you expect anything less?" Naruto asked, pouring his ruby chakra onto Chaos, triggering the silver steel of the blade to illuminate neon red.

Charging forward, the maroon haired demoness jabbed Temptress to the red-streaked blonde's body but narrowly missed with said blonde just barely dodging out of the attack's range.

"Demonic Arts; Tornado Slash!" Naruto roared, slicing in the open air, displacing a massive chakra wave that quickly formed into a mini-tornado, heading towards the corrupted Haruno.

Reacting to slow, Haruno growled menacingly as she was sucked into the slicing tornado that steadily moved across the street, tearing everything it ran across to shreds, slightly stunning Kyuubi at the sheer force of the attack.

"Kyuubi, we've got a bit of a problem here…" Sasuke hissed from behind the scarlet mistress who scoffed and turned around before a wicked grin spread across her lips.

"Looks like we got ourselves a party" Kyuubi replied, a cocky tone in her voice as thousands of Infected growled at her.

Naruto's crimson eyes darted behind him, seeing the scenario that his friends were facing as he twirled the chakra powered Chaos on his hands.

"Can you deal with that Kyuubi?" Naruto asked, eyes staring directly at the scarlet mistress who shot a sexy smirk back at him, showing off her fangs as she picked up a kunai off the floor.

"Who the fuck do you think you're talking to kit? Of course I can handle this" Kyuubi replied as she vanished in a crimson blur, dashing towards the Infected.

A column of fire appeared behind the blonde-turned-redhead ninja, causing him to dart away from it as a horizontal slash from a silver blade emerged from the flames. Haruno dashed out of the column of fire, driving Temptress forward, towards the demonic Uzumaki's chest, directly at his beating heart.

Chink…

Deflecting incoming jab with Chaos, Naruto countered with a quick, vicious hook with his other hand, clocking Haruno in the cheek as she stumbled. Channeling chakra into the blade, the demonic Uzumaki twirled, his attacks becoming a whirlwind of slices at the maroon-haired individual, cutting many shallow wounds on the body, momentarily stunning Sakura from the immense pain delivered in a small period of time. Taking advantage of Haruno's disorientated state, Naruto shifted his hold upon the blade, clutching it backwards as the chakra running through the steel quivered and crackled, intensifying in a threatening manner.

Letting out a devious smirk, the demonic Uzumaki slashed forward and almost immediately, a terrifying beam of pure concentrated chakra flashed towards Haruno who had been too late to dodge out of the way.

Schinkkkk…..

The beam cut straight across her vertically, immediately causing blood to spurt everywhere as the body separated into equal halves before slumping onto the floor. Stylishly twirling Chaos on his hand, the demonic powered Uzumaki trudged over to her, his demonic red eyes watching the corpse of the maroon haired girl as he roughly placed his foot over the body; signifying his victory over her.

"And this time, stay dead.." The demonic-powered Uzumaki coolly spoke, glaring down at the body.

Orange, fire-like chakra poured off the corpse in waves, flooding into the Uzumaki's system as he overloaded, his veins visibly glowing bright orange underneath his pale skin as his eyes glowed a fiery shade of orange.

"NARUTO!" Sasuke roared from behind him, catching the Uzumaki's attention immediately.

Twisting around, the red-headed Uzumaki caught sight of the Uchiha who had darted forward towards him with Amaru in tow, carrying a deathly pale Tayuya.

"What's happened to her?" The Uzumaki inquired as Sasuke placed the crimson beauty onto the floor.

"The stitches she sowed on her leg are taking its toll, it's too much for her to ignore. It's only gotten worse since the bandages she placed are loose and she's bleeding out. I tried to stall it but it's too much to stop" The Uchiha reported as he pointed to the stump that was once Tayuya's right leg, specifically .gesturing to the bloody stitches that were roughly done and the amount f blood gushing out of the stump.

"Why haven't you applied first aid to her?" The redheaded Uzumaki demanded as he dropped next to the body of the crippled crimson beauty.

"I don't know how to"

Naruto gave him bewildered look and despite the moment, Sasuke flushed pink from it.

"Why don't you?!"

"I…kinda skipped that class"

Naruto facepalmed as Kyuubi walked towards them, her dress covered in blood as she carried her sword, Temptress.

"What did you get from her?" Kyuubi asked as she playfully swung the sword around her palm.

"What are you talking about? I did nothi-" Naruto started, sending a confused look to the scarlet temptress.

"I'm talking about Haruno, kit. What did you get from her?" Kyuubi elaborated, pointing Temptress at the vermillion demon who shot her an annoyed look.

"I got something, I dunno what it is though!" the redhead Uzumaki grunted.

"If you want to save her, you need to channel that energy to her"

"Are you fucking crazy?! Her body won't be able to handle my chakra!"

"Not the chakra dumbass, the pyre"

"Pyre?! What the hell are you talking about?!"

Finally annoyed with the situation, Kyuubi roughly grabbed the frustrated redhead's hand and slammed it on the middle of the crimson beauty's chest, causing Amaru to 'eep' at the sudden movement and utterly stunning the Uchiha at the same time.

"What the fuck!?"

"Just shut up and channel the pyre to her before she fucking bleeds out!"

"Okay I got it so stop yelling in my fucking ear"

With his hand planted on the middle of her chest, the redheaded Uzumaki isolated the burning ember within his system, feeling it's heat and intensity, before thrusting the whole energy to the crimson beauty beneath him.

Schh…
CRACK…

All four of them were blasted away as Tayuya shot up, roaring a strong and loud cry, her battle cry. Being one of the first to recover from the sudden shockwave, Naruto Uzumaki was the first one to see the changes that took place.

Tayuya's hair was luminous fiery orange-red color as it straightened out, swishing and flicking with every movement of her skull, dancing around her like fire. Her eyes were a luminous orange-red color with black slits which Naruto could recognize as Kyuubi's trademark eye. Her skin took on a lively shade of a tan, as if she was spending a day in hot weather. The most shocking change was her severed leg had grown back, not even leaving any evidence that she lost a leg in the first place.

"Wow.."

The revived crimson beauty glanced at him, a brief smirk on her face as fire crackled on her hands. Intrigued by her sudden control over fire, the fire-wielding redhead toyed with the fireball on her hand as an Infected made a charge for her. Testing out her new abilities, Tayuya flung a fireball directly at the Infected, immediately coating the Infected with a blanket of fire upon its touch.

"Oh I can get used to this" The redhead spoke as fire erupted into her hands once more.

Spotting several Infectedsurrounding her position, Tayuya ignited more fire which coated her arms, burning off her sleeves. The Infected charged, running towards her in an erratic way as she discharged the fire into a big, wide burst, incinerating the Infected that came into contact with it.

"Oh yeah, I can definitely get used to this just fine"

"Stop looking you fucking pervert!"

"Hey, you were the one that went commando in front of me!"

"He does have a point there Taya-chan"

"Stay out of this furball"

"I knew we should have waited outside.."

"Oh hush teme, it's not like you're enjoying the view"

"Is that fucktard looking at me?!"

"Hey, wait a sec-"

"He definitely is so you better cover up before he sees anymore of your goods"

Amaru let out a frustrated sigh as she watched the banter between a near naked Tayuya( who was barely covering herself with the several rags they found at the store entrance) who was browsing through the clothes rack with Kyu( Kyuubi's official name as she announced after the literal 'firefight') who was assisting her to find something that is her size. An embarrassed Sasuke was off to the other side of the store with a relatively normal looking Naruto.

At some point after the firefight, Naruto reverted back to his previous self; his red hair shifting to its usual yellow color with red streaks with somewhat shorter talons (at least in comparison to his 'Demon' state as he likes to put it) with his regular whisker marks on is cheeks. His eyes reverted back to its baby blue color, a warm welcoming set than his angry, demonic 'Demon Eyes' (which Kyu had stated she had found more appealing on the vermillion demon).

Amaru had found the situation somewhat surreal; they had just single handedly brought down the 'Queen' and slain majority of the Infected and here they were, bickering in a somewhat clean store to rest off until the rest of Konoha's ninja forces returned to reclaim the area.

Still, she wasn't really looking forward to the life after; Uragiri was still alive and there was no doubt he would try and get them out of there as soon as possible. She bit down on her lips as her eyes grew moist; she didn't know how long she could handle this abuse but who could she turn to? The first thought that came to mind was Naruto, the ninja who rescued her when Uragiri had used her as a meatshield, the ninja who cared for her but would he really care?

The other two redheads had seemed pretty attached to him and there was no doubt from the way he glances at her was indicating that he cared for them.

Feeling the slight ache of hopelessness within her, Amaru silently cried and gently brushed away her tears from the view of her companions.

Did no one really care for her?

Did no one really noticed?

God, these questions were causing her to tear up as she heard a call for her name.

The red-streaked Uzumaki walked up, a gently smile on his face as he approached her, an apple in his grasp.

"How you feeling?" He asked as he slumped down next to her, glancing at her with soft, caring eyes.

"I'm..fine I suppose" She replied, her voice strained as she refused to meet his eyes.

"I wanted to thank you for earlier; for comforting me when I was gonna breakdown so here.." The red-streaked Uzumaki responded as he handed her the clean apple.

"I wanted to get you something else but the stores are kinda wrecked and I didn't exactly want to put off my appreciation of your actions till later. If you ever need anything, I mean anything, don't be afraid to ask me" Naruto spoke as he stood up and stumbled away.

"Naruto, wait.." Amaru muttered, halting the Uzumaki as she bit her lip, hesitating on whether or not to involved Naruto in her personal affairs.

Could Naruto, her savior, really be able to save her from Uragiri's grasp?

Could he even stand up to the self proclaimed 'Lighting Devil'?

"Is there something I can help you with?" Naruto asked as he turned towards her.

She nodded simply.

"What is the problem then? I'm pretty sure I can help" The Vermillion Demon asked as he crouched down in front of her, his hand gently caressing her magnificent red hair.

She took a deep breath as she made her final decision.

"…It's Uragiri…"

Zack: Okay so I ended up taking longer than I expected to update. Venice is such a beautiful city and is initially the final end of the globe-trotting tour but since I thirst for more of this exciting journey, me and Alyssa( my girlfriend) will soon be travelling over to Sweden and Scotland for the next five to six months or so. I've booked the flight and she's made a schedule for the time( I doubt we'll end up following it though).

This will severely affect my writing schedule since it will be a busy trip so expect no updates for the next months or so(however, I will update when possible so check back when you wish to).

As always, R&R.
