Now in regards to Naruto being a 'wimp' in my story Naruto really doesn't want to fight anymore protecting the girls is fine but all in all after the war he doesn't want to see blood on his hands. I know it can annoy people having him like that but it how I imagined him in the story so please keep reading despite this
And to all those reviewers I feel the need to state once again that I write this fanfic as a method of stress reliever so please cut down some negative comments. I know its constructive but my style is unlikely to change much in all honesty

Chigusa and Fate were now standing in a strange alter over a lake "You know under that big rock you can see over there. A great Oni is sleeping. One who's so dangerous that nobody's been able to summon him before" Chigusa told Fate laying down a now only towel covered Konoka.
"It seems like the current leader and the Thousand Master sealed him when he was rampaging once 18 years ago. But that…" Chigusa continued to ramble while Fate looked bored "With ojou-sama's power, it's possible to control him."
"If the summoning goes well the reinforcements won't matter" she walked over to Konoka who was still silenced by a charm "Please forgive this rudeness ojou-sama, but this won't be dangerous for you. Or rather it might feel good." She took a step back from her "Well then lets begin…Ijaya" she began chanting as Konoka Konoka's screams were muffled due to the charm and her power being forced out of her like a juicer.
"Takama no hora ni kamu dzumarimashite, koto hajimetamakishi kamuromi no mikotomachite. Ame no takechi ni yahoyorozu no kamitachi o kamu tsudohe tdusohe tamahi. Kamu hikari, hikari tamehite~" Chigusa chanted as a pillar of light emerged from Konoka due to her immense magical power.
Far away the two flying mages noticed the pillar of light "Negi this is bad and I can't hold myself back for this Acceleret" he said breaking the speed of sound as he shot through the air. "Wait Naruto-nii, Acceleret" Negi shouted trying to catch up.

Back with Asuna and Setsuna they were battling hard with the summoned demons, Asuna making quick work with her fan but the fatigue was beginning to start affecting her "Th…That makes ten…maybe I'm strong…" she panted between breathes before taking out a few more.
"Th…This brat" shouted a demon angry for his lost comrades "Get her" said a kitsune demon as the closed in on her. Asuna had no time to react but was aided by Setsuna striking with her sword "Shinmeiryuu Ougi, Hyakuretsu Oukazan" she proclaimed slaying the demons with great grace that had petals floating.
"Thanks Setsuna-san" said Asuna "you're pretty good at this, somehow" Setsuna smiled at the praise. "Yes, Asuna-san take the right" she told her which she nodded and the two girls got back to back both breathing deeply. "W…We're…a pretty good combination huh?" Asuna smirked "when we get back from the school trip, teach me kendo Setsuna-san."
Setsuna's face blanched at this request "Eh? Th…That's fine but…I'm still learning…" she mumbled the last part.
"Hya…They beat 150 troops in three minutes…a…are they monsters there girls?" said one demon sweating not realizing the irony of his question. "Guahaaa, there;s our enemy the Shinmeiryuu, but anyway that girl's fan is cheating boss" muttered an armoured demon to the boss demon.
"Guwahaha, they're pretty energetic girls huh?" the boss demon laughed before something crossed his mind "By the way…do you think it's fashionable not to wear underwear under skirts?" he asked making Asuna remember her situation.
"Well before you know it, it's become the 21st century after all if anything…it's a good era" noted the armoured demon. 'Sh…Shoot I forgot after all my panties were turned to stone and broke' Asuna thought embarrassed clutching at her skirt. The demon boss noticed her opening and pointed "Oh, she's moving slower, catch her and don't be afraid of her fan" he ordered as the demons began to chase her.

"That magic…it's…it's…a summon of some sort. I have to stop it" muttered Naruto releasing his tails and ears and pushing forward leaving Negi behind. "Aniki hurry before it's too late" cried Chamo as Negi did his best to keep up with Naruto, so much so he didn't notice the shadow dogs coming from behind until the last second.
'Inugami?' he thought before casting "Deflectio!" but this caused him to fall off his staff but Negi quickly held out his hand "Mea Virga… Vente" he said calling the staff back to him so he could cushion his fall with wind.
"Yo Negi" shouted a familiar voice "Heh, this great. I never though the chance for a rematch would come so soon. It's just too bad that onii-san got by too fast." Kotaro was pumping his fist at Negi his body language told him he was itching to fight "You aren't getting through here Negi!"

"Are you okay Asuna-san?" asked Setsuna after the two had slain several more demons. "Un there's less than half of them left" she replied. "Please don't strain yourself" called Setsuna worried since Asuna didn't have training for something like this "No problem we can do this" she shouted back.
Asuna looked to her friend not noticing the dmon coming in fast "Once Negi and Naruto bring Konoka back…" her statement was cut of by having to block swings by a crow demon with a large sword.
"Mn…Birdmen?" Setsuna noticed "Asuna-san" she was then like Asuna forced to block under the assault of a demon, a kitsune at that. "You're not a bad girl. But I'm not like the others you have faced so far" said the crow demon knocking Asuna's fan away with his handle before stiking her with his blade making her cry in pain and get knocked back into the water.
"Asuna-san" called Setsuna in worry "I…I'm okay…Negi's magic protected me. But this guy is really strong…" she said getting back to her feet. "It seems the Ki users and magic users have becme tougher since the days of Heian." Commented the crow demon "But I wonder…how long can you hold out for?"
'Oh no, apart from the power protecting her, Asuna-san is just a normal person' thought Setsuna only just blocking the attack from another demon before she could move to her aid. The boss demon and a kitsune sitting on it's shoulder faced off against Setsuna "Girl from Shinmeiryuu. We will be your opponents."

At the alter Chigusa was still chanting the summoning spell "Thousand wavering spirits, guardian of the ten thousand worlds. Without delay unto the heart of that deepest of lands, forge a path onto the surface." Fate felt the closing power and teleported to intercept it "By the ties of blood boil, to the emperor himself…Fujiwarano Asomi Konoe Konoka."
The large rock shot out a pillar of bright light now that breached the clouds "Burn and boil over. Live O Spirit dance, O Spirit! Become as the spirit of a God."

Fate created a blade of earth to block twin sabres swung by Naruto whose attire had changed. He wore strange tight leather like armour with a blood red coat over the top; his hair had taken a slight spiky look as well. But what struck Fate most was his eyes, ocean blue eyes were filled with rage and had adopted a slitted pupil, a small trait left behind for Naruto by his previous tenant.
"Out of the way Fate I don't have time for you" he shouted pushing his blade against the oversized rock sword making it crack. "I apologise but I can't have you interfere Naruto-kun" he said calmly but raised a brow when the blades cut clean through his sword he jumped back as the sword Naruto held shattered and faded.
"Fine but don't blame me when I take off your arms" he growled out creating another couple of blades out of nothing. Fate realized his situation and created multiple blades of earth "Senjin Kokuyouken. If one sword isn't enough maybe quantity would be better" he commented.
"Trace…On" said Naruto as a complete copy of Fate's blades appeared around him "Lamina Infinita Opus… another pactio in my possession. With it what you use I can use and make it stronger despite it only being an imitation. It also has some ancient weapons whose images have been implanted into my head." He explained to Fate.
"You are extremely dangerous to this operation Naruto-kun" he said snapping his fingers shooting the blades out to attack Naruto all at once. "Trace…Continuous Fire" Naruto exclaimed launching his copies back to block Fate's.
While the blades blocked each other Fate reengaged Naruto in combat using hardened stone blades which easily shattered Naruto in the first strike making him raise an eyebrow. "don't think you've bested me…"said Naruto as he formed a new sword, a single blade that a skull at the end of it's handle but the rest looked like living scales. "Let's see how you handle Samahade Fate" Naruto shouted slamming the blade down.

Setsuna saw the large pillar of light "That pillar of light" she said in shock, "Hoho…what a spectacle" noted the boss demon. "Looks like our client Chigusa-han's plans are going well" said an eerily happy voice.
"Did those two mage-kun's fail to make it in time" Setsuna turned around to se Tsukuyomi "Well that's got nothing to do with me…right Setsuna-senpai?" she asked with a blush. "Tsukuyomi" Setsuna said eyes wide as Asuna's attack against the crow demon was caught by the wrist.
"Asuna-san" she called to her friend as she dangled helpless uselessly kicking the demon "Without her fan, she's just a normal little girl…" remarked the demon holding Asuna. "Now then warrior of Shinmeiryuu…it seems we have a stalemate" he said turning to Setsuna.
'This is bad…this is really bad' thought Setsuna with dread 'Negi-sensei, Naruto…' she didn't notice the small marker appearing of one of the enemy targets or the gun being held out from the bushes 'Let's see what you can do' thought the hunter in the bushes.

Negi was currently blocking claw strikes from Kotaro with his own hands, both jumping away from each other after the block. "Looks like you're finally taking this seriously Negi, and by the fell so is onii-san" said Kotaro smirking. "Get out of the way Kotaro-kun. I don't have the time to fight with you now" Negi shouted back but Kotaro just grinned "Aw come on. Don't be such a spoilsport Negi."
"Aniki you can't keep using the contract on yourself for much longer" warned Chamo. "Since your sharing with ane-san you're going to run out of magic energy in no time" he pointed toward the pillar of light where you could make out two figures fighting. "Look at the pillar of light. The ritual is going to finish in a matter of seconds. We have to hurry" he told Negi.
"I know Chamo-kun" he turned his attention back to Kotaro, "Kotaro-kun, why are you helping that monkey-onee-san?" he asked. "She took my friend and now she is doing something horrible to her" he pleaded to the boy.
"Hmph, I have no idea what Chigusa-nee-san is doing" he replied without a care. "All I signed up for was the chance to fight you damn western mages and it looks like I hit the jackpot with you and onii-san." Kotaro pointed toward Negi "I'm glad I met the first person who I've met of my age who can put up a fight against me, onii-san is now the person I want to challenge. But now let's fight!"
"Fight…? This fight is meaningless" cried out Negi shocked at Kotaro's motivation "If you're looking for a match, we can fight as many times as you like after this" he offered. "Don't screw with me" Kotaro shouted "If you use your full power and beat me. You'll still be able to make it. Come on Negi, you're a man aren't you?" Kotaro goaded.
Negi got a determined look on his face and took Chamo from his shoulder much to his worry "All right" said Negi as Kotaro got a big fanged smile "Heh…that's more like it" he said getting ready to charge.
"Hey Aniki just a minute" pleaded Chamo "Don't worry Chamo-kun. This will be over soon" said Negi his eyes focused on his opponent. 'Gwaah this is bad, Aniki's being led astray by his own stubbornness and childishness.' Chamo thought in horror 'if he fights now, even with Naruto-sama, Konoka-nee-san will definitely…'
The two boys than charged at each other screaming but were cut off by a large shuriken blocking their path "What?" said Kotaro confused. He was then pushed away by a palm attack and knocked into a tree.
"A…An after-image? A split-body attack?" said Kotaro getting up "W…Wh the hell are you?" he shouted. Negi then spotted a figure in the tree that turned out to be Kaede holding Yue in her arms "…Nagase-san, Yue-san?" Negi cried shocked by their appearance.
"Getting hotheaded and losing yourself at an important moment…" commented Kaede "…You're still lacking in concentration de-gozaru Negi-bouzu!" she then put Yue down and took out her card "Adeat!"

Setsuna was considering her options in her tight situation 'Kuh I've got no choice…now is the time…' she thought crossing her arms 'I'll have to use that power…' a bullet then went through the demon holding Asuna's head causing him to let go due to the pain.
"Nwooah damn it somebody else" the demon cried fading away. Two more bullets hit the kitsune demon and the boss demon's club "These…these are spell-breaker bullets" noticed the boss demon "Who are you?" it asked.
"Looks like you're having some trouble there…" said a voice which Asuna and Setsuna turned to see Mana, Chao and Ku Fei standing near by with Mana holding the gun she had in her pactio card. "Since I'm testing the new weapon there's no charge for you Setsuna-san" said Mana loading some bullets into the chamber to replace the used ones.
"Uhyyah is that giant monster for real-aru? Looks strong-aru?" said Ku Fei who looked very excited at the possible challenge. "Care to double team Ku Fei?" asked Chao twirling his pactio tonfa.

"Who are these nee-chan?" asked Kotaro annoyed that girls had interrupted his manly fight with Negi. "Eh…N…Nagase-san? But how did you…?" Negi tried to ask but was cut off by Yue. "I called her on my cell phone Negi-sensei after that wolf we found in the baths got me to safety" she explained as Kaede span the kunai from her pactio card on her index.
"You can leave things here to me" Kaede told Negi "You're in a hurry right?" Negi tried to respond but his words didn't seem to make sense "This is no time to be confused Negi-bouzu. We'll talk details later with Naruto-kun…"
She got up to his face smiling with one eye open "You don't need to worry about me…" she said tapping his head "Naruto-kun has given me all I need to fight now…go!" she said pushing him away so he could get into a run.
"Ah wait Negi!" shouted Kotaro about to chase Negi but was stopped by Kaede throwing a couple of her own knives at his feet. He then glared at Kaede "Hey you the big nee-chan over there. Don't get in my way…" the anger mark showing on his forehead now "I'm not interested in fighting women."
Kaede put on a light smile "Hm…so your name id Kotaro huh?" the kunai spinning on her finger had an ornately-patterned blade extending outwards from a wide circular ring acting as the weapons center that she held in her hand.
"You've got good taste…to recognize Negi-bouzu as you rival, de-gozaru." She opened one eye as the kunai continued to spin on her arm "But you can throw away your ambitions because right now I am still stronger than Negi-bouzu"
In an instant there were several copies of Kaede all spinning the kunai "Kouga Chuunin Nagase Kaede…has arrived with her trusty new weapon 'Zetsuei'." Kotaro gaped then smirked before summoning his dog spirits "all right" he shouted.

Mana took aim with her new gun and shot off a couple bullets that hit the demons despite only firing in their general direction. "Wow is that thing real?" asked Ku Fei in awe "It was a gift" she responded quickly.
Several bird demons got in close "Don't get cocky you weaklings" one said as thy surrounded them. "You won't be able to beat us at close range" the sound of crackling fire could be heard. "I bet she can but it's my turn now" said Chao hitting two of the demons at the back of their necks both burning and crippling them as they dispelled before she used the fire from the tonfa to propel her to do the same to the other two then moving onto others.
The whole thing happened very fast as Mana shot at several more demons which her bullets homed in on and using a spare gun to use in close combat too. Asuna and Setsuna were gawking at the display of fighting ability "Why is Tatsumiya-san…was she that strong before?" Asuna asked in disbelief.
"I used to exterminate monsters with her occasionally…" muttered Setsuna as Ku Fei surveyed the battle field "Ai Ya that's Mana for you. But this is the first time I've seen real monsters before" said Ku Fei looking very happy ten pumping his fists.
"You two can go fight the weak ones Ku, Chao" Mana said to the other girls which Ku Fei took offence to "Ah you're making fun of me" she said shaking her fists while Chao giggled. "Don't underestimate the power of 4000 years of Chinese Martial Arts" proclaimed Ku Fei as she parried an attack from behind with her left before striking back with her right hand hitting multiple demons together "Mati Bung Chuen."
"E…Even Ku Fei is here and looks pretty strong too" commented Asuna now relieved "I…I don't know what's going on but it looks like we're saved." Ku Fei got back into stance with Mana and Chao at her back "Come on isn't there anyone stronger-aru?" asked Ku "Just don't overexert yourself Ku" Chao told her friend.

Kotaro sent the shadow dogs to attack but they seemed to phase right through the copies of Kaede as if they weren't there. 'They must be illusions, noting to worry ab…' his thoughts were cut off by three copies of Kaede palming his chest hard.
Kotaro righted himself and skidded across the ground "Kuh…you surprised me narrow-eyed nee-chan" he said grinning. "To think that someone like you would be living the carefree life of a middle school student" he said while Kaede just smiled accepting the praise "You've got some skills of your own, de-gozaru."
Her form began to shimmer and disappear and Kotaro felt his head get kicked in from the back "But it seems you can't tell what's an after image, and what's a copy" she told him spinning her weapon. "Zetsuei lets me move so fast it creates an after image but with my kage bunshin you can't tell what's real" she told him going back to attack the dog boy who was ready to counter with his own moves.
Yue was watching the scene with interest 'Is…Is this for real?' she asked herself hiding behind a tree. 'It's just like those childish novels that Nodoka and Haruna read… no human could have that kind of physical strength…this contravenes all known laws of physics.' She then came to a realization 'This must be what Kaede-san called 'Ki' and 'Mana'. In other words…magic.'

"I see them" shouted Negi as he neared the lake where the sounds of clashing were coming from. "But what are you going to do Aniki, Naruto-sama looks as though the white haired boy isn't letting him pass" he told him.
"Don't worry Chamo-kun, I have a plan to deal with that boy and get round him" Negi replied mounting his staff to fly on. "What? Are you serious Aniki?" Chamo asked shocked "I don't know if it'll work but…" Negi said a little unsure "I'm going to try a delayed spell I've been practicing."
"This is getting old fast Fate" said Naruto as he swung Samahade through more of his mass created swords siphoning off some of the magical energy used. "Perhaps but it seems we have another intruder" Fate said gesturing head to the approaching Negi.
Fate pulled out a charm but the opening was all Naruto needed "Trace…On" releasing Samahade his created a new sword, this one was a larger sword that had a blue handle meant for two hands. It had a cross guard that was gold and seemed to glow with a beautiful light…the sword of light.
It was only a small wall of earth that allowed Fate to avoid the attack with only a cut to the face "You managed to wound my again Naruto-kun, not many can claim that." He then noticed the sword he held "How ironic we stand upon this large lake while you hold the sword of the lady of the lake."
Negi meanwhile was chanting is aria "Ras Tel Ma Scir Magister, Fret Venus Vente, Flans Saltatio Bluerea." The alter was then covered in a mist. "Pwaah w…what's going on?" asked Chigusa as she continued her summoning "The wind turned the water into mist…does he intend to approach under its cover" answered Fate blocking an overhead strike from Naruto and was pushed back by the force.
He didn't have time to counter the hit Negi made with his right fist, but his barrier seemed to hold despite the strong magic attack. "…I told you, you were better off not trying" he jumped back to avoid the sword swing from the left side but holding Negi's wrist
"You bore me Negi-kun, Naruto-kun there has been providing me with entertainment for the last few minutes" he drooled out. "You aren't used to fighting at close range. Why do you choose to do so against an opponent who is far stronger" he slighted at Negi.
"The son of the Thousand Master huh? You're nothing but a child after all and it seems I expected too much from you" he told Negi. Negi's response was to chuckle as Chamo stuck out his tongue at Fate "Did we fool you?"
Negi then used he free hand to put it to Fate's chest "Release Sagitta Magica Binding Arrows of Air" he shouted unleashed the spell directly at Fate. 'He cast a spell without chanting?' Fate thought confused before realizing "…I see a delayed spell!"
"I see you've made surprising progress for someone with only a little bit of real combat experience" said Fate as the magic restrained him. "I've changed my opinion of you Negi Springfield" he praised his expression still unchanged from its usual.
"Well done Negi, Fate truly is a fierce opponent but now we need to get Konoka-chan" said Naruto running over to where he saw her "Wait where us she?" he shouted.
"Aniki, Naruto-sama look!" Chamo cried pointing to the centre of the lake.

Kaede sat on top of Kotaro pinning him down while holding his arm. "I guess you weren't able to get serious after all Kotaro." Smirked Kaede putting her card away "You had no real intention of winning de-gozaru."
Kotaro grunted from the restrained arm "No…I won't make excuses. A loss is a loss…strong onee-chan." Yue then came out from her spot D…Did you win?" She asked before noticing something in the distance "K-Kaede-san look!" she then shouted pointing toward the figure rising from the lake
While back with the other group "H…hey Setsuna-san what's that?" asked Asuna as the girls looked on in wonder of the light in the distance.

"Fufu…Seems like you too are too late, the ritual has just been completed" said Chigusa as a large four armed demon stood behind her. "Two-faced, four-armed, giant demon 'Ryoumen Sukunanokami.' A giant demonic god defeated 1600 yeas ago…"
Chigusa continued to laugh "The summoning is a success" she said as she floated up with a still naked Konoka. "The legends said he was as tall as 180 feet but it seems like he's even bigger" she grinned down at the two boys.
"Abeat, Negi…stay here" said Naruto deactivating is card now just in his casual clothes. "What I'm about to do will more than likely scare you but remember it's still me" he whispered as he crossed his arms and began to shake before…
"RAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW" he roared as his body both grew and shifted until he stood in wolf form at a size larger than the demon shocking anyone who could see the lake. The wolf had strange red tattoo like markings all over its body an had a swirl tattoo on his forehead.
Chigusa was the most visible shocked "W…Wh…What are you?" she asked shaking in fear as a huge ten tailed wolf now stood in front of her that growled at her and the demon, it's tails swishing angrily.
"Naruto-nii…is…is" Negi said trembling at the sight before hearing the sounds of breaking signalling that Fate was now free. "Seems my prediction about Naruto-kun was true…he is the lost legendary demon."
Chamo's mouth had dropped down to the floor 'crap, crap, crap, crap this is bad I got to do something for Aniki. Wait that's it, I still haven't used the pactio card's ability' he thought to himself having a idea.
XBreakX
The remaining demons saw the wolf and were quaking in fear "Oh Kami, it does exist…the legendary Juubi. The elders talked about it but I always believed it to be a myth" muttered the boss demon. It and the other demons turned to the girls "We know we can't face that so we're leaving now" it said as it and the others vanished leaving only Tsukuyomi on her own.
"S…S…Setsuna what's go on there's two monsters now?" said Asuna confused by the situation "I don't know but Negi-sensei might be in trouble so we have to go help him and Naruto" she replied.
"I hope you aren't running away senpai" called Tsukuyomi who was stopped by Chao clashing with her tonfa. "Sorry I can't let you go by I still have some tests for my weapons and you are the perfect subject to test on" giggled Chao as the flamed intensified, Asuna and Setsuna took off.
"Mana, Ku Fei go with them I don't know what's happening with Naruto-kun, so please go check on him." Asked Chao getting two nods but also a pout from Ku Fei since she didn't have a real chance to have a good fight. The two chased after Asuna "Take care Chao and don't lose" called Ku Fei.
"Don't worry I won't" she smiled back as the two went into the trees. "Do you really think those weapons of yours will be of any help against a Shinmeiryuu?" asked Tsukuyomi. "I think I'll manage now come on" she said goading the girl before appearing behind her in the blink of an eye "Because the test begins now."
Back with Asuna and Setsuna they both heard a voice, 'Ane-san, Setsuna-nee-san. Are you alright' said the voice of Chamo. "Chamo/-san?' both girls replied hearing the ermines voice. 'Aniki need your help since we're fighting a really strong opponent' he told them through telepathy.
"We're heading your way now…but what's the large wolf doing there?" she asked holding the card to her head. 'Um…ane-san that's Naruto-sama and I'm going to have Aniki summon you both using the cards' he informed them making their faces blanch. "Summon…and what do you mean that's Naruto." Asuna shouted bewildered as to how Naruto was so freaking huge she's already seen the wolf form but didn't think Naruto would be able to become a giant.
XBreakX
I won't kill you…but…" said Fate walking toward Negi "but anyone who faces me had better be prepared to get hurt." Negi was panting exhausted from his over use of the contracts "You pushed your physical and magical powers to their limits" Fate continued holding out his hand "You did well Negi-kun."
"Aniki do it now" whispered Chamo as Negi threw up his two master cards "Evocem Vos! Minister Negii, Cagurazaca Asuna, Sacurazaci Setuna." Twin pactio symbols appeared on the floor by Negi and the two girls came forth ready for action.
"Asuna-san, Setsuna-san I…I'm sorry…Konoka-san is…" Negi apologised in between breathes. "We know Negi GYAAH THESE TWO ARE HUGE" she then blurted out being close to the two giants neither making the first move one waiting for a command and the other readying to counter attack.
"So what do you intend to do?" asked Fate as he began to chant "Vishu Talri Shutal Vangait. Bashirike Galiote Meta Octo Poden Kai Cocoon Onmetin…" Chamo seeing this shouted "what the…that was his spell key. He's a western mage and he's…" then figuring out the spell he shouted to Asuna "Ane-san, stop his incantation."
"We won't make it" cried Setsuna as Fate finished his incantation "Wanen Tou Eve Ton Kotanon Parailsan." He thrust out his fingers releasing a cloud of smoke but one of Naruto's tails swept by blowing the cloud away "You should know I'm still here Fate" Naruto's booming voice came over his tail blocking his view.
Negi and his partners had moved away from where the cloud would have been "Good thing Naruto is on our side that spell is very dangerous in our situation right now" said Setsuna.
Asuna was checking over Negi "Are you look terrible" she said looking him over. "T…Thanks…you too Asuna-san…" Setsuna noticed his slightly petrified hand as did Naruto through the corner of his eye. "Negi-sensei your hand…" she shouted alarmed "I…I'm okay…it barely touched me" he assured her.
'Damn Negi with how you are now I hope you can hold out till I get there' thought Naruto as turned his attention back to his opponent but he wondered how to get Konoka away from Chigusa. Down below Setsuna was thinking the same knowing that Naruto huge form would make it difficult not to harm Konoka.
"You two get away from here, I'll save ojou-sama with Naruto" she told the others, shocking them. "With Naruto's current size and power I have no doubt he take beat this demon but with ojou-sama on its shoulder he'll hold back. So I have make it up there by myself alone."
"B…But how are you going to get up that high on your own?" asked Asuna while Setsuna refused to face them. "Negi-sensei, Asuna-san…" she said with a regret "I…I have a secret I've kept from you and ojou-sama." She crouched over "Once you've seen my true form I'll have to say goodbye. But now…with you two" from her back came a pair of white wings.
Asuna and Negi looked amazed at the beautiful wings "This is my true form. I'm a monster just like them. Please don't misunderstand. My desire to protect ojou-sama is real…but I've kept it a secret all this time…" she began tearing up at her own words. "Because I was afraid ojou-sama would hate me if she saw this ugly form…even Miyazaki-san has more courage then me… I'm pathetic…" she then stopped as Asuna began inspecting her wings.
"Um…Asuna-san" she tried to catch her attention before Asuna slapped her hard on the back hard. "What are you talking about Setsuna-san? I think they're cool" she said smiling "Beside as you can see you're not the only one keeping secrets" she said gesturing with her thumb.
Negi and Chamo nodded at this thinking how he hadn't told them he could go this size. "Konoka's your childhood friend and you've been watching over her from the shadows for the past two years now. What have you seen during that time?" Asuna asked patting her on the shoulder.
"Do you think Konoka is the kind of person to hate you for something like this? You're such an idiot, heck Naruto showed us he had wolf features when we met him on the first day." Setsuna remembered being told this and suddenly realized she had, had someone to talk to about this but hadn't for months.
"Go Setsuna-san we'll support you, right Negi?" Asuna then shouted with Negi replying "Y…Yes!" she turned back to Setsuna. "Hurry up and go Setsuna-san" said girl had tears of joy as she happily said "Okay!" and took off as Fate jumped over the tail blocking his view "So there you are" he muttered.
"Negi-sensei, thanks for trying so hard for Konoka-ojou-sama and I'll have to thank Naruto later too" she said Naruto seeing the now airborne Setsuna figured out what to do. His jaw opened and a small light began collecting at the front of it growing larger by the second 'this should do the trick once Setsuna-chan gets Konoka-chan. Plus it seems that back-up is on it's way' he thought as Fate preparing to shoot down Setsuna had to block a magic arrow from Negi as well as bullets.
"More intruders it seems, I thought Tsukuyomi-san and the demons would keep you busy" Fate said with narrowed eyes glaring at Ku Fei and Mana. "The demons ran before I could show off my skills-aru" Ku Fei whined.
"She's right but I think we have a target now" said Mana reloading. "Chamo-kun d you think we can handle this now?" Negi asked his companion "Not sure Aniki this whole situation is mind blowing."
'Hey boya, can you here me boya?' said a voice in Negi and Asuna's heads. "That voice is…" said Chamo with his jaw dropped 'Fufu…I've come to see you fight, but it seems half the problem is solved there. If you can last a minute and a half I'll finish the rest' said the voice of Evangeline.
'that was a great plan you got but you're too smart for your own good. Sometimes you have to rush in blindly, without thinking about the consequences like your so called brother there' she continued. Negi bowed his head before revealing his eyes full of determination as he stood next to Ku Fei and Asuna while Mana held back a bit.
"Asuna-san, Ku Fei-san lets go" both girls shouted "Okay/-aru" as Fate calmly walked toward them. "Are you coming? Then I shall be your opponent" he said as Negi activated the contract but both Asuna and Ku Fei were unable to fit him as Fate managed to kick Asuna into the boardwalk and back handed Ku Fei who righted herself but was not in time to stop Fate slamming hi fist into Negi. It all and happened really fast that it made Ku Fei both worried and giddy with excitement.
Both she, Asuna and Negi attacked Fate who keeping a straight face managed to blow and counter with ease "He's so strong" muttered Negi as Fate jumped into the air. "Vishu Talri Shutal Vangait. Basiliske Galeōte meta Kōktō Podōn kai Kakoin Ommatoin to Phōs Emēi Cheiri Kathias tōi Kakōi Dergmati Toxeusatō! Kakon Omma Petrōseōs!"
Seeing the beam from his fingers take out the boardwalk heading straight for them Asuna covered Negi and Ku Fei with her arm the latter surprised at this action. Her shirt began to turn to stone "You both okay?" she asked "Yes thanks…for that Kagurazaka-san…seemed dangerous-aru" said Ku Fei.
"I knew it…" said Fate "The ability to completely nullify magic hug? I'll take care of you first Kagurazaka Asuna" he shot down whit a fist prepared to hit the girl. But he was stopped by both Ku Fei and Negi holding the hand "Asuna-san are you okay?" asked Negi.
"Un Negi I'm okay" she replied readying her fan as her shirt shattered "But kids who are naughty need to be punished 'cutting' through Fate's barrier now nullifying it.
"Setsuna-chan, get Konoka-chan now so I can stop this thing!" Naruto shouted as energy at his muzzle began to condense. "Right!" she said back "Amagasaki Chigusa I'm taking back ojou-sama" she said heading for her and as Chigusa tried summoning her minions they were taken out as soon as she summoned them by Mana.
"Negi-bozu now" said Ku Fei as she and Negi used their free fists to punch Fate on either side of his face. Setsuna managed to grab Konoka and flew up high as Naruto pounced on the demon and restrained it via his tails as he swallowed the ball of energy.
Chigusa jumped and ran away seeing as there was a tremendous energy building in the other beast mouth now. As quick as she ran away chains began circling around the two as Naruto slowly opened his jaw and released the energy upon the two-faced demon taking it apart piece by piece as the blast tore through it. The blast lit up the space in the barrier but didn't affect any of the others due to the strong barrier.
Setsuna above holding Konoka took off the charm from her mouth ""Ojou-sama, Ojou-sama are you alright" she said to her friend who opened her eyes slowly. "Ah…Se-chan…hehe I knew it…you came to my rescue again" she said slightly dazed.
"Ojou-sama are you okay?" at this Konoka blushed and covered her face "AAH…it felt really good, just like that person said, how embarrassing, just pretend you didn't see, Se-chan" she said before noticing her friends wings.
"S…Se-chan your back…these are…" Setsuna looked worried on what she might say. "These are beautiful wings, just like an angel" she said making Setsuna blush furiously almost lighting the sky as Naruto' chain barrier disappeared and the wolf began to shrink down in size and change form until Naruto was lying on the water panting a little.
'Damn still not used to that form and using a ten tailed version of the Imari along side that new pactio. I should have taken off more limiters' he thought as he began to sink into the water a little until someone grabbed him and lifted him by the shoulder "Are you okay Naruto?" asked a voice.

"Did we get him?" asked Asuna as Fate turned his head "You two actually managed to hit me, I honestly thought Naruto-kun would be able to do that, Negi Springfield." Fate launched a punch at Negi but it was caught by a clawed hand he looked down to see a girl coming out f his shadow.
"Looks like you've been taking care of my boya, amateur" said Evangeline as she fully came out of the shadow and punched him sending him flying across the water. "Evangeline-san" called Negi as the vampire smirked "Now we're even boy, and it looks like Naruto managed to take out the other problem before I got here. Where is he now?"
"Right here master" said Chachamaru as she floated down carrying Naruto now looking a bit dishevelled from his first time transformation. "Chachamaru-san is here too" proclaimed Negi "Yes she was here to help set up a barrier for that demon but it seems you can make one on your own. Although being that huge and using that attack must be taxing" Eva commented.
"Yeah…plus the taste when consuming all that chakra isn't the best, thanks Cha-chan" Naruto replied as they touched down but she held him up still. "No problem Naruto" she replied while she felt the irregular heat in her chest again as she held Naruto close.
"I'm glad you're here Evangeline-san but what about the attendance perdition curse?" asked Negi "Ah that's right you shouldn't be able to leave the academy" added Asuna. About that… started Chachamaru "Even now we're using a complex high powered ritual in order to continue to deceive the spirits that perpetuate the spell. The principal has to sign and seal one "Evangeline is in Kyoto for school purposes" document every five seconds."
Eva winked "As a reward for today that old geezer agreed to endure signing perdition until we finish sightseeing in Kyoto tomorrow." Naruto chuckled at this "The horrors of paperwork, I guess it's a good thing I managed to figure out your seal while we were here then Eva-chan" the girls expression instantly changed to one of disbelief.
"You're kidding right?" Naruto shook his head "When I get some rest I can apply it so you can leave the academy as long as you are within a certain distance from me. It was the only way around he seal" her face then lit up with delight.
"What's all this about seal-aru?" asked Ku Fei "Nothing Ku Fei-san, just something Naruto-nii was working on with Evangeline-san and thank you for the help" he said to her making her blush from the praise. "It was nothing-aru. Just wish I could have fought a bit more-aru."

"Looks like it's all over, I don't have to capture you so you can leave if you want I got all the date I needed" said Chao to a singed Tsukuyomi. "Well I've already worked of what I was paid. It's just a shame I didn't get to fight senpai or Naruto-han. Still I'll be going back too, tell Setsuna-senpai and Naruto-han I said high tonfa nee-san" she replied jumping away.
Meanwhile with Kaede she was deactivating her artefact looking toward the lake "Looks like everything went well" she commented. "Um…Kaede-san shouldn't we tie up this boy or something" muttered Yue point at Kotaro who looked a little excited after seeing Naruto wolf form.
"Don't make me laugh shrimp I won't run once I admit defeat, beside now I know that the person I have to beat is that onii-san there, I've never seen a transformation that huge" replied Kotaro.
"I'm worried about the others Yue-dono. Let's go check on them de-gozaru" said Kaede as Yue nodded and followed her.

"Listen up boya. If we were to say today was one of those Japanese video games I play in my sparetime…" there was a collective sweat drop. "Then this would be the part where you ask why the last boss helps you when you're about to die in the first dungeon. If something like this happens again you can't always rely on my or your brother's power. You've got to show them your own guts"
"Negi I'm going to have to agree with Eva-chan here" said Naruto as he hobbled over to her "we both know that this could only be the beginning of things to come. So you are going to have to become stronger but today I am proud of what you've shown me."
"Yes he did well today, are you all okay?" she asked as a head started to rise from a puddle of water. "Evangeline-san, Naruto-nii" Negi shouted as Naruto felt the intent and pushed the girl away "To Teichos Dierxasthō! Doru Petras" said Fate as earth spikes impaled Naruto.
"You bastard!" shouted Eva "Hmm…he won't die still it seems a lot of you wish me harm for doing that. For now I'll take my leave for today" said Fate as his form turned to water when Eva cut threw his with her claws.
Eva turned back to Naruto to see the wound healing quickly "You…okay…Eva-chan?" he said coughing out the blood that had come up. "You didn't have to do that you know…" she said as Asuna and Negi ran over.
"Naruto-nii are you…" he couldn't finish when he saw the hole in his stomach that had skin swirling round healing it, he and Asuna almost lost control the evening meal seeing it Ku Fei and Mana were amazed at the spectacle.
"I'm fine Negi, and Eva-chan even though you can probably survive an attack like that doesn't mean I'll let it happen" he said shakily getting to his feet as Chachamaru went to his side ad scanned his body and saw it was completely healed.
"Sorry you all had to see that" he said to the others as Chachamaru supported his weight he then felt a slap from Asuna. "You idiot you had us all scared to death when that spike went through you" she shouted at him both worry and anger permeating in her voice. "Asuna-chan, trust me when I say I had suffered much worse than that in my life" he said a little low making Eva raise a brow.
"Thank goodness Naruto-nii" said Negi before collapsing, the girls went to his side. "Damn I his right side has turned to stone, I only know how to stop a minor case so far and I'm drained from getting rid of that demon" said Naruto as the other girls ran over.
"Negi-kun/sensei" shouted Konoka and Setsuna as the looked at Negi and Kaede came on to the scene "What's wrong de-gozaru?" she asked. "Kaede, Yue-san… Negi's in a dangerous situation" she said as Setsuna explained.
"Negi-sensei's magic resistance is incredibly high so the petrifaction process was very slow. But at this rate he will be unable to breathe when his neck petrifies and he'll suffocate" Asuna panicked and turned to Eva "Can't you do anything Eva-chan?" she shouted.
"I…I'm really bad at healing magic" she admitted, Naruto turned to Konoka "Konoka-chan, I think the only thing we can do is for you to kiss Negi" he told her getting a few looks. "Before you ask by kiss I mean to form a pactio which will amplify your healing powers I saw in cinema town."
"Your right" nodded Konoka as she turned to the others "Se-chan told me everything, and I want to say thank you. My classmates and sensei worked so hard to help me today. If I couldn't even do this much…" she kneeled down and cradled Negi's head "Negi-kun hold on" she said before kissing him.
As the pactio formed a bright light covered the area and after a while Negi regained consciousness to see the faces of his students and brother "Konoka-san…thank goodness…you're okay" he muttered as the girls cheered for his health.
"Looks like the boya will be fine" commented Eva watching the girls hug Negi "Yeah, Konoka-chan's artefact and healing will be helpful later on, now come one we best get back to the mansion and get some sleep so you can get your sealed changed Eva-chan." Eva smiled as Chachamaru helped Naruto walk, as did Kaede taking the other shoulder until they got back to the mansion and allowed themselves to get some rest after seeing that everyone was alright.
Meanwhile Chigusa was having an interesting experience with one of Eva's dolls named Chachazero who took pleasure in scaring the woman into shock…despite wanting to see some blood too.

Negi woke up from his sleep and looked around before remembering everything had been sorted out the night before and relaxed. He then however heard noises coming from outside "I contacted my partner and settled everything. We'll be handling the ringleader to you now" came the voice of Eva.
"Thank you so much Evangeline-san" said the voice of Setsuna who was preparing a bag. "It seems like Negi-sensei is fast asleep. Well it was a hard night for him" she noted to herself. "Hey are you leaving behind already?" Eva asked sitting on the side next to Chachamaru "You should at least say goodbye, you realize you don't have to go, he is similar to you."
"It would only be painful to see him face to face again, and he is a lot different from me" she said with a tear in her eye. The door slid open to reveal Negi "Setsuna-san!" he shouted surprising her "Where are you going? What about Konoka-san?"
"I…It's the law of my people, once you've seen my true form I have no choice but to…" she began to run but was quickly restrained by a long white tail. "You know I honestly thought you would be this stupid" Naruto joked as he held Setsuna with his appendage.
"Naruto let me go" Setsuna pleaded to which he smiled and shook his head "Sorry no can do Setsuna-chan. And I case you didn't realize you aren't the only one who can't reveal their true nature. Negi can't or he becomes an ermine, Eva-chan's a vampire and Cha-chan is a robot, plus I'm no exception to this."
"That right, please continue to protect Konoka-san by staying here in person Setsuna-san" said Negi while she continued to squirm. The argument between her and Negi came to a fault as Naruto let go with his tail as the two were hit by Asuna and Konoka telling them the substitution stencils had gone haywire back at the hotel.
So the group set off for the hotel with Naruto hanging back with Eva, Chachamaru and Zazie now fully recovered and up to speed with the events of last night.
"Are you to head back Eva-chan, Cha-chan, Zazie-chan?" he asked getting nods from all three as they walked behind the others. "How's the injury?" asked Eva trying not to sound too concerned "Completely healed and no scar too, I'm just glad no one was too hurt last night, which reminds me Cha-chan…"
Said robot turned "Yes Naruto?" I have a small surprise for you when we get back to the hotel and I'm sure you'll like it too" he said smiling. Chachamaru nodded back a little curious what he had got her "Hey what do I get?" asked Eva "Your seal changed and me buying you the things you asked me to."
She grinned at this as Zazie hugged his arm "…" she said "I'm fine, I'd do the same for any of you girls and that's a promise of a lifetime" he said kissing her forehead which annoyed Eva for some reason.
"Although I am a little curious to what it is the clones of the others did that was so bad" Naruto commented with the girls agreeing with him as they continued on their path.
XChapter endX
Well we are nearly at the end of the arc people and I can't wait to get working on the next. Now I know people might want me to continue my other stories but at the moment I find it easier to work with this one as there is so much that can be done.
Hope people like the new pactio I used in the Fate fight alongside Naruto's transformation, there will be a training chapter soon and I'll be using the characters I used in the cameo in a previous chapter plus an extra.
Till then good bye
