Chapter 4- Orangguerra
Harry was excited. This is the last day he would have to stay at the Dursleys for the remainder of the summer holiday. He was packing the rest of his stuff and his firebolt in a magical 7-compartment trunk that he and Naruto had bought at a disguised magical store in the mall that they found accidentally. Naruto had instructed him at enforcing his muscles with chakra in order to gain limited strength. "This is a rudimentary technique. Nothing like my girlfriend could do, yikes!" He shivered in fear as he said that. Nonetheless, he can still carry two grown men with the technique. They were also going to the mall to celebrate by going into the arcade after he was packed.
At the mall…
Harry was enjoying himself immensely as he and Naruto relived their childhood through the slaying of virtual terrorists using virtual laser bullets. All seemed to be well until….
"Harry, duck!!" Naruto yelled as he looked out the window outside.
Harry did so to find a man crash through the glass and fly through the spot his head was a moment ago.
When Harry got up, he got a good look at the man. He had curious silver hair and was dressed in a long red leather trench coat. On his back was a leather strap with two holsters and a black hilted long sword that seemed to be a claymore. As the mysterious man got up, Harry could see that he was bleeding from the head, but the man seemed to ignore the injury.
"Damn bastard." The man muttered, cracking his neck.
"Dante! What are you doing here?" Naruto asked the man.
"Oh! Hey blondie, fancy seeing you here." The man known as Dante looked at Naruto. They seem to know each other.
"Well, got a routine call, a B-class demon was last seen heading here. Y'know same old, same old, get knocked around a few times, taunt it for a bit, and then kill it. As a matter of fact, here it comes now!" Dante said, looking above, readying his twin guns.
"Shit! Harry, help everyone get out of here! There's a demon coming-" Naruto didn't get to finish as a large monster crashed through the roof of the mall.
"What in Merlin's name is that!" Harry exclaimed as he was grabbed by Naruto.
"It's an Oranguerra. A B-class demon from hell. Well, not in this dimension at least." Naruto informed Harry as he made his way through the mall, running along the walls. "Listen kiddo, Dante and I can handle the freak, you just stay away and help evacuate the mall, got it?"
"But-"
"No, you are not ready to fight a monster of his caliber, and you can't use magic until you're seventeen. So until then, stay out of our way, got it?"
"Fine…" Harry nodded.
"Good." Naruto put down Harry near the entrance, then jumped away.
It was a marvel to watch Naruto fight. For the first time ever, Harry saw Naruto's fighting abilities, and he just has to say, he'd never want to be the one to fight him.
"Shit, I forgot my sword… oh well, this has to do for now." Naruto did some seals and called out, "Kaze no Yaiba!" A sword made out of wind materialized on his outstretched hand and he immediately began slashing at the monster. Dante was doing the same with his sword, Rebellion.
"So, what brings you to this dimension?" Naruto asked as he jumped out of the way of the orange monkey-like demon.
"Oh, I was bored, so I decided to go to this one." Dante responded as he cut one of the demon's fingers. "Then, I got a call from HQ, saying a rift opened and a demon popped out. So I decided to kill it." Dante just shrugged.
"Ah! Goddamn, he's a feisty one!" Naruto commented as he was thrown through a shop window. "Well, how's this!" he did some hand seals and placed his hands on the ground. "Doton: Yomi Numa!" he cried out. The ground surrounding the Oranguerra began to soften and the Oranguerra began to sink. However, Naruto, forgetting that he is fighting a monkey, the Oranguerra placed its hands on the 2nd floor and pushed itself out of the makeshift swamp and began to move, using its hands as feet.
"Shit" Naruto jumped out of the way as it shot an energy bubble
"My turn!" Dante said as he ran up towards one arm, dragging his sword through the arm in the process. He whipped out his guns and began to shoot at the creature's three eyes. The creature was not pleased and began to bang its shoulder at the wall.
A scream was heard throughout the mall, a scream that Harry recognized as, "Hermione!" Harry began to run towards the source all the while trying to avoid the raging monster. He eventually reached the source to find the bushy haired girl trying to lift a heavy metal girder. Luckily, it did not fall on her legs, as there was a column holding one side of it. She just couldn't get out.
"Hermione!" he cried out.
"Harry? Oh Harry! Help me!" she said with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, let's see." Harry muttered as he tried to lift the girder. "Damn, if only I could use magic…"
"Oh Harry, forget about me. Save yourself." Hermione told Harry.
"No! I can't, I'll save you somehow... Wait!" Harry began to harness his chakra, augmenting his muscles. "Here goes…" He lifted. The girder rose just enough for Hermione to slip through.
"Oh Harry! Thanks!" Hermione said, giving Harry a bone-crushing hug.
"Ow, heh, any time, but… I need air." Harry wheezed.
"Oh sorry…"
Just then, the Oranguerra crashed next to them. It got up to see the two kids next to them. The demon roared at them and began to move towards them. Harry placed Hermione protectively as he grabbed a kunai from his leg holster and tied an explosive note at the hole end of the knife. "I don't know what good it'll do but…" he muttered as he lit the note using his chakra and threw it at the creature. Naruto's lessons paid off as the knife sank into the last remaining eye and exploded. The creature roared in pain and anger as its last eye and the surrounding flesh burst into flames. Distracted, the two teens ran and watched as the Naruto and Dante jumped down near the creature's mouth. Dante, in his demon form, used his magic to within the creature's mouth to launch a huge fireball inside. Naruto had his right arm outstretched with a shuriken-shaped wind chakra and launched himself towards the creature. The sound was deafening as the two teens watched the demon literally ripped into pieces by what seems to be a tornado.
"What power." Hermione muttered as Harry nodded with agreement.
"Damn, I forgot how painful that technique is…" Naruto cursed as he jumped back towards the teens while grasping his right arm. "You kids okay?" He asked them. The two just nodded, too shocked to speak. "Good." Naruto took out a small earpiece and spoke into it. "I need a clean-up crew at sector-01, London. Okay? Good…" he then put it away. "So, Granger-san, didn't expect to meet you here."
That seemed to shake the two out of their revere and looked at each other and blushed at their close proximity. "Oh, um… Mr. Uzumaki, my mom and I were just buying a birthday present for my um… dad, yeah that's it." Hermione stuttered, still blushing. Her mom and her were actually there to buy a gift for Harry, which luckily they had gotten before the whole mess started, "Speaking of which, where is my-" Hermione was cut off by a cry of "Hermione!"
They turned around to see a middle-aged woman with curly hair running towards them. "Mother!" Hermione cried out and ran to greet her.
Harry watched them, longing for being able to hug someone like that, actually, Hermione's hugs seem similar to what is happening right now. "You okay kid?" Naruto asked Harry, to which Harry responded with a quiet, "Yeah."
"Mom, I want to introduce you to Harry Potter, Harry Potter, my mom, Ophelia"
"Nice to meet you Mrs. Granger." Harry shook Ophelia's hand.
"Oh, thank you for saving my daughter, she was telling me how you came to her rescue, and it's just Ophelia, no need to be formal." Ophelia said as she hugged Harry. It wasn't as bone-crushing as Hermione's or Mrs. Weasley's hugs, but it was tender.
"Um, thanks, Mrs. Ophelia." He blinked as he was hugged.
"Now, I know that we were to pick you up tomorrow, but would you be willing to have dinner with us tonight?" Ophelia suggested.
"Um, wow, I would love to, I mean, if it's fine with you, and could I bring my guardian with me?" Harry said, a bit meekly and pointed towards Naruto.
"Oh, of course, the more the better! In fact, we could go right now!"
"Great! I have my stuff with me, Naruto and I could follow you to your home, right?" Harry asked Naruto.
"Of course, I'm quite hungry anyway, and I was dying to meet your girlfriend's family." He teased.
"She's/I'm not my/his girlfriend!" Harry and Hermione both exclaimed at the same time then looked at each other and then blushed.
"Heh! If you aren't dating, then my hair isn't silver, which, by the way is my real hair color." Dante commented.
"We aren't dating!" Harry blushed even more.
"Whatever." Naruto said, chuckling. 'Ah Young love' he thought. Mrs. Granger was also laughing and thinking the same thing as the four walked towards the parking lot. "Hey, you know, I can give you two a ride to the nearest restaurant, you know for a date, eh eh?" Dante nudged at Harry with his elbow and winking at them.
"We aren't- oh never mind, you two are idiots." Hermione hmphed and walked side-by-side her mother.
"Well, kiddo, let me give you some advice about kissing. First you get her all softened up…" Harry was really blushing now between the two men.
"No, no Dante, you got it all wrong, you wait for the opportune moment, he has a keeper, not one of your once-a-week girlfriends, idiot. What you do is take her for three dates you know?" Naruto suggested.
"Oh please, you and your sensible ways, you seemed whipped ever since you hooked up with that Sakura girl." Dante scoffed.
"I am not whipped!" Dante made a whipping sound.
"Why you…" Naruto sighed as he was ignored when Dante began walking on the opposite direction, muttering about paperwork and troublesome women with weird eye colors.
When they got to the parking lot after being checked by the paramedics, questioned by the police which was shortened as Naruto had pulled a badge on them, but the teens had missed what was on it as his back was turned, Hermione gasped. "Wow Harry! What a wicked looking bike!"
"Heh, thanks for the compliment m'lady." Naruto said, making a dramatic bow. "It's really useful for my job, able to channel any form of energy I wished, and also has a weapons rack." Naruto informed as he again pressed a button on the left handlebar which made the weapons rack pop out. "Anyway, shall we?" Naruto gestured towards the exit as he started the bike.
"We shall." Ophelia answered back as their car was parked conveniently next to the bike and the two women hopped inside.
Wow, how's that for an action scene. Sorry if it's not great, I'll try to do better. Oh and Dante is indeed from another dimension, his own. I picked up the idea from Jet Li's The One. Other heroes, anime or otherwise, will make an appearance from time to time. The Oranguerra demon is from the 2nd Devil May Cry game. He's that huge monkey who swings on the roof of the subway station. Next chapter: Dinner at the Grangers.
