The Chaos Of Another World

by EagleSpiritsWisdom

Strange creatures walk these lands with even stranger people and... unfortunately with the most strangest ideals. With Hinata by his side they had to figure out what happened and where they ended up. Stuck in a world that isn't their own. What the hell... are pokegirls? Rated M NaruxHina NarutoxPokegirl crossover

15. ARC II: 7

"Boring!"

Frowning, she threw yet another journal off the cliff and into the ocean four hundred feet below. There went another few precious minutes she'd never get back, as each disappointment came up her fur frizzed more and more in irritation.

She released an agitated sigh, and with an irritated flick of her tail she forced energy into the seal marked scroll, pulling out yet another book, "These humans know how to use chakra, fuck you'd think they'd have something interesting in here, not stupid books." She fumed, skimming through the book it read something about the molecular structure of -blah blah blah- she tossed it off the cliff she was sitting on.

It had taken awhile, admittedly a couple of days to figure out how to unseal the contents from these scrolls using an energy different than chakra, but apparently it hadn't been worth the trouble, all the books she looked at so far were all so dreadfully boring and useless.

Just a bunch of tasteless information that no one really needed to know about, still she was curious on how those two humans had managed to get their hands on some of Sukebe's little diaries, at least which made things a little interesting.

Squinting at the notes written in the passage of the next book, she grimaced and quickly chucked it off the ledge, "Can't let the humans get their hands on that one, the last thing they need to know is how to control ferals." She muttered, it was so easy and yet everyone overlooked it, they hadn't found out now and probably never would now with the book gone.

Grinning, her mind drifted off back to the interesting humans. She saw that boy and girl and how they performed after she hand launched that boulder at their balloon and she was happy to say that they didn't disappoint. Jumping around through the air, not cracking under the pressure in the least, and dodging the chaos before their cute little Dracass came to end it, flying them all to safety.

She had been ready to go confront the humans' right then until her eyes spotted something that caught her eyes, she spotted at least three bags falling through the sky that they left behind. Short to say, she was curious and decided to take one, but after sifting through the scrolls of knowledge for about twenty minutes, she decided it was dead.

Dropping the last book her patience allowed her to hold she merely huffed in boredom and frustration, "Bah, who needs books anyway." She grumbled, her tail pushing the bag of scrolls off the cliff and down into the ocean.

She pouted to herself, "What are they after if they had these old journals though?" Then again did it honestly matter; she had been bored for a while now and for humans this interesting to fall into her furry lap was too good to pass up. Wiping her hands clean she stood up.

"Just a bunch of useless junk." She vented with a small flare in her eyes, as her mood quickly changed, "I hate it!" Her tail smashed against the ground, indenting its figure in the earth.

Thick malevolent energy began to swirl around her, the life around her seemingly becoming just as dark all within an instant as everything lay still and quiet. She faced the ocean and the rising sun with a cold mischievous glint in her eye, "Let's see if we can't spice things up."

- Extending the red and white ball at the frowning Dracona Naruto commanded, "Myrel return..." -

"Humph."

Hours of talking and yet she hadn't found out all that much from those strange tamers, all the effort she put into prodding into their secrets wasted, which only served to rile the dragon type up even more.

Feeling her body begin to come into existence as the red light ceased, Myrel's eyes met the familiar sight of white within her pokeball, which was where she was most of the time with her previous Tamer.

A miniature work out area to stay fit, a refrigerator and pantry packed with food in the kitchen, and a bed in the middle of a white room, the standard captured Pokégirl cage.

The Dracona crossed her arms in frustration, thanks to those two Tamers she had a lot to think about, which she couldn't help but do when she didn't understand something.

On the bright side they seemed more intelligent than her last Tamer; actually looked to have some skill in combat from the sight of the weapon holster at the human girl's thigh; Able to tolerate pain from Naruto's appearance; and also they were damn polite.

On the downside they were brats; they were naive and beginners; they were definitely hiding something which she despised; and most importantly: They were too damn polite.

To her chagrin the Pro's overruled the Con's.

'Doesn't mean I like it.' Myrel thought as she fell into the comfort of her bed with a large frustrated sigh.

She wasn't willing to join them, not after everything she had gathered about them, one of the major factors being that they were only children… well, fourteen, but even still! It angered her even further that she couldn't be told anything about them unless she did agree to join them and with that her mind quickly drifted back to what the blond kid had told her, saying that if she had no real desire to stay with them, then he wouldn't force her to and they could drop her off at the nearest town if she wanted.

A tempting offer, but she was no fool, she wasn't going to go back to being locked up in her pokeball at the PokéCenter only to be picked up by some dick, and she had learned her lesson with her last few Tamers unfortunately.

So she provided her own course of action. She was going to tag along, they didn't seem to object to the idea entirely, and it would help soothe her curiosity about the two strange tamers if she happened to just stumble across anything they happen to say. With her ears she may as very well hear everything in the forest. Although as soon as she found the Tamer she wanted she would depart, Naruto and Hinata had no qualms about it, so she could at least respect their integrity.

Her hand gripped the bed.

Myrel's brows narrowed, they were hiding something and she knew it, hell they knew that she knew. What kind of crowd were they mixed up in if the boy was injured like that, not to mention the weapons they carried with them, something she had only seen fighting Pokégirls carry and the thought of humans being involved in combat was only something she figured wealthy, powerful and experienced Tamers would be capable of... not fourteen year olds.

Something else had caught her attention as well: Their catch of Pokégirls? A Dracass was far past beginners' experience, but yet she and the other two held so much respect for the two Tamers.

A Cheshire, it gave some explanation as to why the Tamers would possess ninja-like weapons, but the sight of a Kitsune had weirded her out and it was obviously the boy's alpha... surely that Kitsune wasn't satisfied with him, and a Kitsune's loyalty only went as far as the amount of times she's tamed, which confused her as to why she seemed to have his dick on a very high pedestal, he wasn't even full-grown.

The Dracass was obviously the strongest out of the group, then the Cheshire and finally the sex craving Kitsune, she knew how useless they could be, heck she worked with one for three days before her previous tamer sold her.

What did interest her though was the amount of respect they held for the two Tamers, what made them so special, and what were they hiding?

Her mind ached to know, but that damn boy said 'I can't do that, you're not a part of our harem.' she mimicked in her mind.

She found that it annoyed her, maybe they had meant to do this, entice her with a small bit of information making her want more just to see if she'd stay. She growled to herself at the thought of being toyed with.

Still, it deserved some looking into, but she didn't think she'd be getting any information out of the Pokégirls that much she knew. They clearly didn't like her, she had gathered that much.

- The Kitsune whined, "She could've been an electric type, he'll I'd have taken a water type. Instead we get this stick in the mud." Kiya sulked to Yue.

Yue's ear twitched, her tail becoming rigid and her claws surfaced her fingertips at hearing Myrel call Naruto a brat. She glared at the ungrateful dragon type, "... I'll gut her." Yue hissed to her Tamer.

Tashira stared at Myrel as she stared back, "... I don't like you."-

Myrel shrugged, okay they really didn't like her, but it didn't hinder her all that much. If she was lucky she wouldn't be staying long, she gave it a couple weeks tops.

"Hmph," Comforting herself in the fabric of her bed she decided she could think of it tomorrow.

*Clap clap*

The light shut off.

... Next Morning...

The arrival of Myrel was going to predictably hold them back; Hinata knew it the moment she had laid eyes on the way the Dracona had carried herself. They still had so many things to do, but now Myrel's appearance was going to limit the topics of the group's conversations, tone down their training to regular Tamer levels, and also Kitsuto was surely going to find them eventually.

Myrel was about as stubborn as Tashira when she had first come into the picture; hours of talking but also trying not to give anything away had made time fly into the early morning before Naruto had finally balled her back up.

They had to move out quickly as soon as they woke up for two reasons: To get away from Kitsuto; to get to Blue League as quickly as possible.

Unfortunately it seemed like the fates were against them, Naruto shooed away whatever had touched his face.

"Hey... wake up." kneeling beside him he leaned closer.

The sleeping teen tossed for a moment, hearing someone call his name.

"Hey... Come on wake up." Pushing on his shoulder he leaned closer.

"Mmnn..." Naruto grumbled, his eyes slowly creaked open, the moment he did he came to see a large pair of green eyes staring down at him.

Kitsuto blinked, "Hey."

"Great KAMI!... *Gasping*... What the hell are you doing?" Naruto yelled angrily, his eyes finally coming into focus as Kitsuto fell back in surprise, Naruto sitting up and gripping his chest as he struggled to slow his heartbeat.

Damn it, it was bad enough that Myrel hadn't turned out like he hoped, but now the first thing he sees when waking up was Kitsuto, could he catch a break?

Kitsuto gripped his chest as well, only then did the two finally see what the other had done to the other. Kitsuto had a crutch by his side, his forehead wrapped in bandages, his throat, his midsection wrapped up, and his left leg.

Naruto quickly looked around to see if Kitsuto's Pokégirls were ambushing them, not seeing anything in sight except Hinata and their Pokégirls sleeping in their sleeping bags.

The sun was high and bright.

Glaring at the silver-haired teen Naruto lowered his voice, "What the hell is wrong with you!"

"Well good-morning to you to." He muttered as he slowly sat up straight, "I limped six miles just for a face like that? Jeez." He muttered.

"... You limped six miles." he repeated deadpanned. Quickly the blond took in how fast Kitsuto was healing, only last night he was bleeding and broken, but now he was up and about.

Kitsuto scratched the back of his head, "Alright, Kyu teleported me, but seriously you should have expected I'd come after you." Kitsuto defended.

Naruto glared, "I did know, I just didn't think it would be this soon." He ground out.

Kitsuto let out a small chuckle, turning his head away he closed his eyes and scratched the back of his head for a few seconds, "You left without saying good-bye. And also we still have things to discuss." Kitsuto had just begun to notice that Naruto no longer had any wounds.

"Hey, you're all healed." He noted suspiciously.

Ignoring him Naruto asked his own question, "What do you want teme?" He growled. Yes he was healed on the outside, but the inside of his body was was a whole different story and especially the muscles in his legs still needed time to recover.

He reached for his weapon holster.

Kitsuto waved his hands, "Wait, I'm unarmed!"

Naruto paused, other than that white T-shirt and black shorts he spied nothing else but bandages and a crutch.

Kitsuto continued, "All my Pokégirls are in their pokeballs as well, and as you can see I'm in no condition to fight." Kitsuto gestured to a tree twenty feet away, and true to his word his swords, backpack and pokeballs were all placed near the tree.

Naruto turned back to the teen and glared at him for a few stinging seconds, "I really don't want to deal with you right now Kitsuto." Naruto replied with a troubled sigh.

"What? Why not?"

"Because you tried to freaking kill me!" Naruto blurted before lowering his voice.

"No I didn't." Kitsuto denied, but despite what he thought, if Naruto wasn't as quick as he was, he might've just reacted too slowly and it would've cost him dearly.

Naruto's hand pulsed, "Plus you're a jerk, I'm about to just launch a few kunai at you." he replied honestly.

Kitsuto's face became serious as he pestered, "Look, just hear me out, after that you can turn me into a pin cushion if you want." He negotiated.

Naruto paused himself, hand on his weapon holster, he narrowed his eyes at his kin, "Really?"

Kitsuto held up his hands, "Not the face, and definitely not below the waist where it matters though."

Cautiously Naruto put down his weapon holster; right now he had every advantage over Kitsuto, so that meant he was leaving himself completely vulnerable to him just to talk... He supposed he could give Kitsuto the benefit of the doubt.

Looking at him suspiciously he asked, "What is it you want?"

Kitsuto's tone lost its mirth, "In all honesty... I just want to know what's going on. If you want me to leave you alone then fine, but at least just tell me who you are and how you can do the things you just did and I'll be gone in a flash. Also I figured we started off on the wrong foot," Naruto scoffed, "So I decided we could talk and resolve some of tension between us." he finished with a straight face.

... Naruto sighed heavily, "Ah damn it Kitsuto... Why do want to know so badly?" Naruto groaned, now his legs were beginning to ache.

Kitsuto sat up and leaned forward, "There is no exact reason, I can't say, but life is full of pains in the ass, I just happen to be one of them at the moment. Now, stop playing kid, it was funny the first time but now it's getting on my nerves."

"Don't know what'cha talking about." Naruto waved off.

Kitsuto pointed his finger at the blond, "You know what I'm talking about, this damn... Thing that's going on between the both of us."

Naruto crinkled his nose at the sound of it, but pushed it out of his head, "You can't be too sure that it isn't a coincidence."

Kitsuto's eyes widened, "See, you do know what I'm talking about! I bet you even like fox types like I do."

Naruto froze, the thought of Kyuubi's grinning maniacal face passed through his mind, "I don't..." but then Kiya's laughing vulpine face came up... he liked Kiya. Naruto stared at him, and for just a mere second he believed him inexplicably.

But what were the stakes? Tell him what the reason was as to why they were connected, that he was Kitsuto's Universal counterpart and as a result he'd be left alone, but what would he do with the information? Naruto huffed with a disbelieving smile, and then stared at Kitsuto for the longest while, but he didn't waiver.

There was just one thing that kept him pissed at the silver-haired teen, "You broke my pokedex." Naruto muttered solemnly.

"That can be replaced." Kitsuto passed, "I can buy you another one."

"Dark Blood Red casing." Naruto jumped.

"New?"

"Of course." Naruto replied with an indefinite nod.

Kitsuto was silent, custom made cost extra, "... Okay."

"I want your word that you won't attack us again, or steal from us." Naruto added.

"Fine, fine just hurry up." Kitsuto ushered.

"And... You mustn't tell anyone what I'm going to tell you without our permission. And after I'm done telling you, you tell me your secrets." Naruto concluded.

Kitsuto held a stare for a few moments, weighing the conditions, "You're pushing it but fine, I accept your terms." He agreed.

Naruto's face lightened remarkably, "Alright then."

"Okay!" Kitsuto replied as he stood up, seemingly without the use of the crutch, standing on his wrapped leg without trouble, he tore off the bandages.

Naruto blinked, "You were faking?" He asked.

Kitsuto turned to him, "What? I have an accelerated healing blood gift, and by the looks of it you have something similar as well."

"An accelerated healing blood gift?" Naruto mumbled.

Kitsuto shrugged, "Well it didn't kick in until I was thirteen but anyway that's no longer important. I figured you wouldn't attack a crippled person, plus it's easier to gain sympathy when you're defenseless." he explained, and then he smiled, "Come on, it worked right?"

Sadly it did, but he wasn't going to say it. Standing up as well Kitsuto offered his hand to the blond and cautiously Naruto took it.

"For the record, I could have won; I still had more up my sleeve." Kitsuto stated, defending his pride.

Naruto smirked but didn't say anything; he could have used Rasengan, but could understand what Kitsuto was feeling sorta. If he had lost he would have claimed the same thing, Kitsuto really was his universal kin... Almost as if finding a lost brother.

"You have no idea what's like to have a family! To lose them!-

Naruto stared at him... Maybe Kitsuto wasn't so bad.

"I'm keeping hold of your swords as a fail safe." Naruto interrupted, a clone falling behind Naruto from the tree above holding Kitsuto's swords.

The teenage Tamer's eyes widened as he looked back to his stuff seeing his two favored weapons gone, "When did you-"

"When you closed your eyes." Naruto replied as he took the swords, his clone dispersing, "You aren't a very good ninja." Naruto muttered.

Kitsuto huffed, "I wasn't trained to be a ninja, just trained in ninja techniques among others," Kitsuto glared at Naruto, "I swear if you even scratch them then I'm gonna be pissed."

"Yeah whatever." Naruto waved off.

Kitsuto paused, relieving a large sigh he lowered his head, "This better be worth it." he murmured before looking at the blond, "Okay, tell me what's-"

*Whizz*

Grabbing his shoulder blood began to surface, "Ow! What the-"

"Get away from Naruto!" Hinata threatened, standing there practically naked only wearing a dark blue laced bra and panties holding four shuriken in her right and three kunai in her left, "You have three seconds!"

Kitsuto and Naruto stared, "Whoa..."

Without a second warning Hinata launched two shuriken, the first cutting the fifteen year Old's cheek before he flinched missing the second, stumbling backward he fell, "Oh shit, hey girl wai-"

A kunai embedded itself in the grass inches away from his manhood making Kitsuto yelp.

Naruto stepped forward, "Hinata wait, Kitsuto proposed a -Gah!" Hinata appearing next to him she grabbed his vest and threw him back, he went tumbling.

"Naruto, wake the girls." she ordered as she tossed another Shuriken, Kitsuto crawled backwards raising his hand, "Girl hold on, I give-"

"Trying to ambush us in our sleep huh." Hinata walked forward ready to throw another Kunai.

Naruto looked over to a tossing and turning Kitsune and Cheshire, and a grumbling Dracass, "Hinata stop!" He whispered.

And she did, Kisuto groveling at her feet, she turned to her best friend, "... What?"

Standing up Naruto dusted himself off quickly, "He proposed a truce." Turning back around she took in Kitsuto's attire, then looked back to Naruto and saw Kitsuto's twin Katana's in his grip.

They all stood there in silence for six long seconds. Hinata then tilted her head in thought, looking down at Kitsuto with a creepy glint in her eyes.

Kitsuto waited on baited breath.

She shrugged, "... Okay." tucking her two kunai at her hip in her panties and the last shuriken in her bra, Kitsuto could no longer see them, not even an outline. Garbed in her undies she walked back to her sleeping bag as if she hadn't just tried to kill Naruto's counterpart.

*Fuck* Kitsuto mouthed frightened at her viciousness.

Naruto watched as Hinata proceeded to pat down her bedhead, mumbling to herself in a still restless stupor, "You could've killed him." Naruto muttered.

Hinata stopped, then looked at the blond with a stare making Naruto blink before she punched the blond in the shoulder, not lightly either. A little cranky at waking up and jumping the gun, "That's why you wake me up and include me so I know what's going on!" She whined.

Naruto knew she was being serious, so he struggled not to crack a smile and exaggerated his 'Hurting' shoulder, "Sor~ry." Naruto deadpanned, Hinata grabbed her scroll and unsealed a set of clothes.

Kitsuto picked himself up.

"So what happened *Yawn* while I was asleep?" Hinata asked, pulling on her dark blue spandex pants, "Last night you two were at each other's throats."

Clearing his throat Kitsuto explained, his bleeding cheek running down his chin, and bleeding arm ruining his shirt, "Well*gulp* as Naruto said I proposed a truce, I'll buy him a new 'dex later." He wrapped up quickly.

She pulled on her dark blue spandex shirt and then threw a black mesh over top of it, before looking at Naruto, "He's not gonna backstab us is he?"

Naruto held up Kitsuto's Katana's, "No, I made sure of it."

Nodding Hinata slid on her boots after putting on her socks, "Well," she began as she looked up at Kitsuto, tying her laces, "I suppose I won't kill you."

Kitsuto scratched his cheek, "Uh... Thanks." He mumbled.

"Sorry about your cuts." Hinata apologized, but upon looking at his face the cut no longer sported his cheek, blood still there though, the cut in his arm was smaller than before.

"Don't worry about it." Kitsuto waved off.

Turning to Naruto for an explanation he replied, "Blood gift." and Hinata nodded.

"We don't really have time to explain things Naruto; we're on a schedule to get to blue league remember?" Hinata reminded.

Memory flooded the blond, "Oh yeah." he exasperated.

Kitsuto perked up as he raised a brow, "Blue league? Why are you heading to Blue league?" He asked.

Naruto turned to him, "Uhhh..." Thinking of whether he should tell him or not.

Kitsuto stared at him; "Wait, we agreed you would tell me about yourself." he approached, narrowing his eyes.

Hinata's ears listened intently, "Making agreements without me, Naruto-kun?" Hinata asked as she looked into Naruto's back.

Naruto laughed nervously at Kitsuto, "I was planning to, only I completely forgot about Blue league. I mean I would if we had the time, but we need to get there before the end of February." he finished.

Kitsuto paused; "February...?" the silver-haired teenager put his chin in his hand.

Scafell Pike attracted fewer tourists in the winter, and the closer it was to spring the more tourists would go there, meaning a more likely chance of being spied of investigating the area.

It was still January so that left some time, and suddenly an idea popped into his head.

Kitsuto suggested his option, "Before the end of February? What is it like the 25th...? What if I could get you there... In three weeks."

Both Naruto and Hinata froze, where it would take three months for an average tamer to get there, a month and a half at a ninja's speed... How did Kitsuto expect to get them there in three weeks?

"How?" Was all Hinata asked?

"Me and my master Jiroshi, we live in the Crescent moon league, just across the border, he has a teleporter." he explained.

They both stared at him, "A... Teleporter?" Naruto repeated slowly.

Kitsuto blanched, "You don't know what a teleporter is?"

"Which is why everything would make sense to you if I explained who we were." Naruto replied.

Kitsuto paused, "So I was right, something deeper is going on with you two." Kitsuto unraveled reveling in the sensation.

"You'll find out if you go on." Hinata interrupted, "What's a teleporter?"

The green-eyed teen nodded, "Alright, basically it's a little chamber you get into powered by the same energy teleporting Pokégirls use, crossing the energy with the same one at a different location and through the chamber you can get there within minutes. There are at least three different kinds, one to transfer Pokéballs; another for supplies the chamber size varies on the types of supplies are usually shipped, and finally, one for humans. It requires quite a bit of electricity and energy to power it, almost every PokéCenter and research center has one installed, but it's pretty expensive to Tamer's and such, I mean not everyone can have one built in their home or something." Kitsuto finished.

Hinata raised her brows in surprise, "How is your master able to afford one?"

Kitsuto shrugged, "He has connections with many people, quite wealthy from his travels and became a harem master. After getting a storage license the amount of his Pokégirls range up to his age and his taming videos can be bought in stores, he is also a famous author in a perverted series, honestly they're about to make an adaption in a few months. His perverseness is as famous as his strength, which is why he named himself the "Horned Frog Sage", kinda stupid name though." Kitsuto reviewed.

Hinata and Naruto blanched, assuming Jiroshi was as old as Jiraiya, then Jiroshi had fifty Pokégirls?

'Wait a second... that Hottie I summoned, was it?' Naruto thought, slowly connecting that where Jiraiya had Toad summons, it was possible Jiroshi had Pokegirl frog summons, '... But how did I?'

The similarities between the two was inconceivable.

Hinata sputtered at the implications, "He is able to keep them all from going feral?"

Kitsuto winced, "Insane I know, personally I think he'll die of a crushed pelvis." Kisuto muttered before turning back to the topic at hand, "So what do you say? You guys look like you need a place to stay. We head over there and you can tell me who you really are. I get what I want, you're in Blue league before the end of February, plus you get rest. It's a win-win situation." he enticed convincingly with a smile.

Naruto had to admit, they all got what they wanted in the end, and also he was kinda interested to find out about what Jiraiya's counterpart looked like.

However before that, they should wake up the girls to see if they were okay with it, if they woke up on their own they were likely to attack Kitsuto like Hinata had.

Hinata turned to look at Tashira toss over in her sleeping bag, "As much as we both want answers, shouldn't we have everyone out so we don't have another accident, and we won't have to repeat ourselves to the girls?" Hinata asked.

Ready to agree Kitsuto turned to Naruto, remembering their agreement, "Can I bring out my pokegirls?"

Naruto slowly nodded his head, it was after all the smartest option to take.

Tashira almost fired a hyperbeam at the sight of Kitsuto's harem, more specifically in the direction of the Atelesia, and Kunimitsu. It had taken a great deal of explaining to the group of pokegirls what had transpired in the few short hours they hadn't been awake and that they were most definitely not enemies.

Much more they had to explain the terms of Naruto and Kitsuto's agreement and why the "Blond kid" had master's Katana's, and what their plans were in exchange for the information Kitsuto craved.

Hinata and Naruto made it easier for Tashira, Yue and Kiya to accept by promising freshly made baths, beds, and food in exchange for their secrets. Not to mention the idea of taking the teleporter instead of traveling sounded quite inviting to the three.

Everyone seemed to agree with the terms so far, and now that everyone had understood what exactly was going on, Hinata and Naruto had Kitsuto and his harem sit before them as they stood up and prepared to go on another monologue of how all of this came to be.

"Ooh! just before you start we should include clones!" Kiya yipped, tail wagging, she interrupted Naruto just when his mouth opened, Yue's tail wagged in sudden interest as she never seen the story adapted to clones.

"I don't think-" Naruto replied-

"That's not a bad idea." Tashira muttered, "It'd lessen the amount of questions and give them a better visual and understanding of the story."

"I don't want to use clones." Naruto ground out-

"What does she mean use clones?" Mika asked, the other four of Kitsuto's harem nodding as well.

Hinata looked to Naruto, "Well it would be fun to see it done Naruto." Hinata caved, the thought of it sounded very delightful, sure they had used clones and henges for training, but not for the story of Konoha, and what not.

Naruto sighed, Hinata giggled before suddenly stopping when Naruto turned to her, turning back around he sighed again, "Alright, fine. I'll use the stupid clones." Naruto grumbled.

"He pretty much called himself stupid." Tashira muttered to Yue's questioning gaze.

Kitsuto's Kyubi, Kunimitsu, and Atelesia's tails all began to wag at the sudden change in story-telling, Kitsuto sat patiently waiting for him to start.

Tashira, Yue and Kiya all moved to side to watch, Naruto creating ten clones before the eyes of the Pokégirls who've never seen it done before as each of their eyes widened.

Hinata raised her hands, "Now while we do this, please hold your questions til we're done alright so we can hurry and finish this."

Naruto's clones all put their fingers together, "Henge." And just like that the old gang would've looked to be back together just like it used to be.

Hinata's heart skipped a beat at the nostalgia of it all, his advanced henge had gotten their looks down pat. Each of the clones looked at one another before going through their head on how their character would behave.

"Heh, this is kinda fun." The pink-haired clone whispered, honestly he hadn't seen Sakura nor Sasuke in half a year now.

Hinata's eyes nearly teared up, "Sugoi... Naruto-kun."

Naruto couldn't hold the grin coming onto his face, he turned to Tashira seeing as how she had heard it three times now, "Tashira, would you do the honors?"

Tashira smirked, "You're enjoying this aren't you?"

Naruto and his clones all shrugged, "A little now."

Yue and Kiya's tails wagged excitedly as Tashira cleared her throat, "Kitsuto and Pokégirls, these characters who stand before you are all Naruto and Hinata's friends back in their own Universe." She began, as she began to list off their names, the story had began and the further it had progressed, so had the amount of clones.

Kitsuto's interest had been caught from the start, but quickly progressed onto the part where the Orochimaru character was determined to kill them all, along with the Jinchuuriki Gaara.

But what also intrigued him was how the Bijuu was sealed into Naruto and it being coincidentally a fox, his most favorite Pokégirl type. And to add suspicion further was the arrival of Jiraiya the "Legendary Toad sage" and his odd and extremely perverted antics which he couldn't help but see Jiroshi in his place, only not with the white hair nor those red markings.

At first he had no idea what was going on, but now Kitsuto was beginning to piece things together, about the connection, about his abilities, and appearance.

His harem seemed nonchalant at the beginning, but soon even the stoic Avariel found herself enveloped in the story. Throughout the story they had all ever-increasingly began to wonder that, if this was indeed true and that these two humans were indeed from another Universe, then how in all of creation did they break the border of reality and get here, but they had to admit that it did make sense, if they're abilities were to be believed.

Sasuke fell back, the original Naruto falling back as well.

Tashira continued, "Unfortunately he was not easily swayed. Sasuke was determined to run away to one of Konoha's greatest enemies despite what Naruto told him, however he pleaded, no matter how hard he fought it all rested in futility. It was then they had both brought out the strongest of their techniques against one another. At that moment Hinata had finally managed to find the two ready to kill each other."

Hinata's Byakugan looked to be blazing, and to an extremely convincing end Kitsuto and his Pokégirls finally understood it all.

Kitsuto had no doubt that it explained everything, "You're me in your Universe." Kitsuto concluded.

"Well technically, I'm stronger and overall more experienced but *Grunt*... whatever." Naruto murmured after Hinata elbowed the blond, his clones going up in smoke now that they were finished.

The Kyubi tilted her head in sheer curiosity "They almost killed each other to. Hm, you'd think that universal counterparts would've gotten along." Kyu muttered.

"They're both stubborn." Hinata muttered.

Naruto's sweatdropped.

Kitsuto slowly stood up as he began to come to terms with this information, "My Universal counterpart... like kin." Kitsuto realized.

"A long lost brother?" Naruto guessed.

"Exactly!" Kitsuto's body suddenly became vibrant and full of life that Hinata questioned herself if he may be Bi-polar.

Quick enough to beat lightning, he bounded over to the blond, wrapping his arms around him he lifted him up, "I always wanted a little brother!" He rejoiced, laughing like a fool as he spun around with his counterpart in his arms

The boy's face heated up at the sudden action, "Wha- Hey let me down teme!" Naruto yelled.

"Idiots." Both Tashira and Avariel muttered.

After Naruto was sure he could no longer determine what was up or down, only then had Kitsuto relinquished him. Putting down the teen, Kitsuto's grin couldn't have swollen any bigger, "You have to meet master Jiroshi, and tell him! I'll tell you all the things about me too, Oh like-"

"O-oi, Kitsuto." Naruto interrupted, putting space between them Kitsuto blinked in confusion, "You can tell me all about it when we get to where you live, right now we're kinda behind and Kiya really hates to hold off on baths after being told she could bathe any time she wants." Naruto quickly reminded to get Kitsuto to shut up and stop hugging him.

Kitsuto raised a brow.

"We also have no more food, so we should go to the nearest town to stock up." Naruto added, which would mean spending the last of their money.

Kitsuto's blank expression slowly came into understanding, "Oh- uh right... well we should hurry then, there's a town not to far off from here." He decided.

"Yeah that's good." Hinata added.

Kitsuto's chest welled up, it was gonna be a good day he could just feel it, perhaps he could help pack up their stuff, "I'll help you pack up."

"Kitsuto that isn't necessary." Hinata replied worriedly as he walked over to her area.

Kitsuto waved it off, "No I insist, don't worry it'll be a lot fast-"

*Crack!*

Hinata froze at the sound, knowing exactly what he stepped on everything went white with hot fury as her anger began to boil.

Tashira and Yue stepped back, "Uh oh." they murmured.

Naruto winced as he looked at Hinata, her dark chakra quickly coming to the surface, "Hinata?" Naruto whispered.

Confusion filled Kitsuto's mind as he looked down, there, neatly placed beside Hinata's sleeping bag was a Pokédex which he now stood on... and it was crushed. Kitsuto's hair froze as his blood ran cold.

"He has such bad luck." Yuku muttered sadly.

---

Raising a hand to cover her eyes from the sun she walked with a limp, 'Ahh damn it!" It was bright and early, yet her body wanted only a few more hours of lovely sleep, the only reason she was awake at this time was because of her new Tamer, him and his odd personality and regime he and his harem had.

After hearing the new Pokégirl complain for the past five minutes the beta leaned in on her master, "She does have a point though, White Lotus league is that way." She directed, her arm fifteen degrees to the left.

The Tamer merely shrugged her off him, "The nearest town is this way." He replied, which was all that needed to be said as most of the harem began to understand.

The new Pokégirl perked up, "Town? What are we going to town for?"

It was the Alpha who turned to her, "Idiot, we're getting clothes." Nova bit, already extremely annoyed by her bitching, her short-temper was coming into play.

The Pokégirl turned to the Alpha, a dark smile on her face as she set her sights on the powerful girl, "You're a pretty rare catch, I thought all you sluts were extinct?" She jabbed.

The Alpha's knuckles cracked under pressure.

"Nova." The Tamer turned to look into his Alpha's eyes, she looked back and soon her tensed muscles relaxed, mentally working on her anger that he continuously reminded her about.

The wind came and went, the newest Pokégirl found that her nipples liked the cool air, they walked in two rows many yards beside a lake, across the other side was layered with hills of rock, grass and trees with fog in the far distance.

The new Pokégirl continued to pester as she smirked, "Clothes huh? Now that I look around none of you sluts look very sexy in your particular get up." She challenged, so far no one here displayed any kind of concern for her, which pissed her off more than anything, she was itching for some kind of conflict, she looked back upon the so called Alpha, "Especially you, no figure what-so-ever."

If the Alpha had heard her, she didn't show it.

She frowned at the Alpha's reaction, or lack thereof, did she not think of her as a threat for the position? She hated to be ignored, reaching her hand out she reached to grab hold of the Alpha's tail, a dark smirk on her face.

"Don't." Was all her master stated, his black piercing orbs staring into the pit of her rotten soul.

She froze at his stare, and found herself retreating, "You're no fun." She huffed as she crossed her arms over her bare chest, her feet rather liked the feeling of rock beneath her feet. Looking around she took in the area of scenery, gone with the forests and grass miles behind them and was now replaced with rock and occasional tree's, another hundred miles to the west and they'd be in the mountains.

"Your fun won't be tolerated outside of combat or sparring." He replied.

"Whatever..." Her eyes darted around to take in all of her harem-sisters attire, each of them as well as her Tamer prepared for combat. Looking down at herself all she saw was skin from her naked body, standing there in her birthday suit.

Well it was to be expected, she was a feral ready to devour this males luscious body only last week out in this wilderness. Tilting her head with a frown she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you wearing those types of clothes anyway?"

His eyes flicked to her's, "What do you mean?"

She scratched her arm somewhat nervously at the teen's pinning gaze, the only one here who she actually did kind of feel reluctant by, "I get that you have your whores all dressed up, but why you? Most Tamers would be wearing something casual."

All the Pokégirls present just stared at her, "She's starting to get on my nerves." One whispered to another, the other Pokégirl in return merely smirked, "Nova's gonna snap first." Like a virus, all the other Pokégirls smirked, besides Nova and the newbie.

Acting as if she had not spoke he turned back to the map shown on the screen of his Pokédex, the Tamer then looked ahead down the rock path, "There's a town an hour away, we should hurry."

The new Pokégirl's wings twitched, a nerve struck her at how the teen shrugged her off, "Hey master, your not going to be a bitch like this forever are you?" She asked sarcastically. Apparently she said something she wasn't suppose to, all the other Pokégirls were staring at her.

"Don't test me." He stated in a strangely calm tone.

She couldn't hide the smirk, "I wouldn't think of it." The feel of his malice was absolutely delicious, and it set her body in chills.

The rest of the traveling was done in silence, with the newest Pokégirl walking the path bare, she didn't wish to bare the strange silent atmosphere that had drifted about around them and she wanted desperately to be put back in her Pokéball to wait until they got there.

An hour of walking and true to her master's words a town was sighted not too far ahead, Tamer's were either exiting or entering the town, what caught her off guard was that her new Tamer returned 'Nova' back into his Pokéball just before entering town.

The people and Pokégirls gave an occasional glance, some looking even longer than they needed to at the sight of a nude luscious Pokégirl walking with her Tamer and harem.

People and Pokégirls either shrugged, or didn't care as they all seen a naked Pokégirl before just like with any other newly captured Pokégirl.

The Pokégirl paid them no mind, hell she welcomed it even as she lifted her head up and strutted proudly, she didn't care about civilian eyes, 'They all look at me, distasteful beings... except them." She thought as she turned back to her Tamer and his strangely stoic and organized harem.

The teen himself looked focused and hardly even looked at her for seconds at a time when speaking to her, she couldn't remember her Taming in her feral state so she felt a little wanting for the past week and she often wondered why he hadn't jumped her over and over by now other than to get her out of her ferality, with her body it would leave men and even some women desiring.

And yet he hardly even looked her up and down, asking him why... she dared not to, at least not now, she didn't know why but something about him told her to tread carefully, even for a Succumbus like herself. But she was not consumed by fear, she wanted to explore that side, he seemed like he could be worthy of her body, after all he had beaten her to within an inch of her life only seconds after she laid hands on one of his Pokégirls that went to restrain her.

She raised a brow at a particular interest, the people here were glaring at one of his Pokégirls...

They stopped in front of a Pokémart, her master balled up all his Pokégirls except herself seeing as how it was her who needed clothing and supplies.

"Let's go, an hour and no longer." He stated.

She scoffed, she had no doubt that it would be him picking out which clothes would most benefit her, all she had to do was pick out the color, or anything else she wanted, he may have a strange, almost maniacal aura around him, but still she wanted to see how far she could go, "I'm not gonna be wearing those damn combat clothes every day, I want something for myself."

She wanted sexy clothes, and she had no doubt he understood what she meant.

"Hn." He grunted.

It was strange, something didn't add up, "Hey, how is it that you have so much money with you? The T2 said that a Tamer's income is almost always in their bank account?"

He paused for a moment, 'Is it worth mentioning?'

"Check all their pockets" He ordered, foot forcing itself down on the thugs throat as he struggled to breathe, the other five guys all lay dead in the alley. -

... Nah.

---

Hinata huffed, probably for the umpteenth time now, "Can't believe he broke my 'dex, probably meant to." She mumbled under her breath, imagining herself strangling him right then, without Naruto to pull her off of him, Kitsuto would've been long past death.

"How many times do I have to apologize?" Kitsuto asked, rubbing the back of his neck as he followed both Naruto, Hinata and their Pokégirls.

"A million more!" Hinata snapped.

Naruto winced, digging a finger in his ear he only shook his head, now both of them were without a Pokédex, no digital maps, info, or Pokégirl scanning. Sure Kitsuto had the act of "Not meaning to do it" down, but even he suspected that he was slowly trying to strip them of all their supplies and then attack again.

Honestly, Naruto wouldn't be surprised, because while they did have an agreement, and they may be universally connected, there was still the fact that only last night they were in a fight that could of been seen as to the death, so even Naruto couldn't fully trust him.

"I'm sorry, I'm buying you a new one aren't I?" Kitsuto apologized.

Tashira snorted, being the only one who did not like any of this one bit, but since Naruto and Hinata accepted, she had no choice but to step down.

Naruto looked up at the rock hill they were walking up, then looked back to the silver-haired teen, "You sure the town's this way? There's no town shown here on the map?" Naruto stated, folding the map of the league and tucking it away back in his supply pouch.

Kitsuto waved him off as he panted, the steep hill taking it's toll on his low stamina, "It's just up the hill there. They had worked on it since October so you won't find the town on last's years map." He replied.

Tashira frowned at the sound of it.

Stopping just on top of the hill he pointed, "Well there it is, hurry up and get the supplies, we'll wait here." Kitsuto finished, a small town only a mile ahead, the silver-haired teen stood there with only a backpack, his Pokégirls stayed in their Pokéballs.

Hinata, Tashira and Yue blinked upon realizing that Kitsuto said for them to wait as well.

Hinata turned to Kitsuto, "I'm going as well, there's things I need to get."

Kitsuto raised a brow, "Did you already take an evaluation at a Blood league Pokécenter?" He asked, from the way he worded it he sounded as if he knew she didn't.

Hinata paused in mid-step at the odd question, Tashira's left hand twitched from his condescending tone as Hinata turned to him, "What do you mean? Why would I need to take an evaluation?"

Naruto and Kiya turned back to the group as well, "Wait, do I have to take an evaluation to?" Kiya nodding as well wanting to know, since everyone here knew that an evaluation, whether physically or mentally would end up causing problems.

Kitsuto waved his hand, "No not you, just her." He replied, tilting his head at Hinata.

Yue's ears twitched as her interest had began to show, "Why only Hinata?"

Kitsuto sighed as he shook his head, "I'm guessing you guys don't know that much about the laws of Blood league either do you." thinking to himself for a moment as Naruto turned to Hinata, Hinata shrugging at the blond.

"What?" Kiya asked looking to Hinata in confusion, why couldn't she go to town?

Kitsuto pinched the bridge of his nose, "Alright, how do I explain this... Blood league basically consider women as property." He began, looking at them to see how they'd fare at this bit of news.

A dark glint appeared in Hinata's eyes at the thought of it but it was quickly overcome with confusion, all that she had seen so far didn't have a hint of sexism to it. Although then again they hadn't been to any major towns or cities so she couldn't really determine.

Naruto's face was quick to turn red, "W-What?"

"Tch, I knew it was something like that." Tashira grumbled as she rolled her eyes.

Kiya's tail bushed outward, "I hate Blood league now!... Although it makes sense since the police guy wouldn't let me swim in that lake." The vulpine muttered as her tail reached up and scratched behind her left ear in thought.

"Pokégirls are already property moron." Tashira reminded, elbowing the Kitsune out of her melodramatic state.

Yue glanced to both her masters confused, "Well I already know that, but why would that require Hinata to have an evaluation?" She questioned with a curious wag of her tail.

Kitsuto raised his hands to calm them down, "I was getting to that. Blood League has this law stating what kind of Pokégirls Tamer's are and are not allowed to have; and below those Pokégirls comes the Pokégirls that require an examination in order for you to keep them and if the Pokégirl is on the list their Tamer has to have an evaluation or be fined and have their harem confiscated, but if it's a female Tamer they may end up taking the Pokégirl away completely, confiscate the harem, and fine the female Tamer, heck they might just revoke your Tamer's license while they're at it." Kitsuto explained, each word turning Naruto and Hinata's face even more sour.

"And I'm on the list right?" Tashira guessed sighing as she did, "Sometimes, it pays to be dangerous."

"You're well worth the risk Tashira." Hinata soothed, rubbing the Dracass's back.

Kitsuto nodded sympathetically, "Hinata hasn't been bothered by male Tamer's so far because she's only a visitor in blood league, which means that female regulation is not as strict. Although all female Tamers aren't allowed to catch ferals, instead if they do they have to turn them in to the nearest Pokécenter."

Hinata's eyes widened, 'Then Fay was breaking the law?'

"I'd like to see them try." Naruto challenged, "Besides as long as no one scans Tashira they won't know she's a Dracass." he reassured, Tashira basically looked like a tall muscle-toned human female with red eyes, sharp nails, and elongated fangs.

"It's better not to risk it. If they did find out there's no way I'd let them take Tashira. It would probably end with one of our friends' faces being put on a wanted poster or something." Hinata stated through a calm voice with barely restrained anger, Kami knew she'd use a henge to escape, "It's better if we wait with Kitsuto."

Naruto looked at her through saddened eyes, in the back of his head he was angry at these stupid laws. Naruto turned to Kiya, "Well, I guess we should hurry then."

Hinata walked over to her best friend -slash- crush, "Naruto, since I can't get it, could you?" She asked somewhat timidly.

Naruto nodded, "Sure what is it?"

The blushing girl leaned over and whispered into the blond's ear, "-I'm completely out." and soon Naruto's face was pink as well, "Oh uh- right, of course Hinata." he sputtered as he scratched the back of his head.

"Thanks." she whispered gratefully, Naruto nodded as him and Kiya turned to leave, a thought popped into the Hyuuga's head, "Naruto, you should also-"

"I'll ask her when we get there." Naruto reassured.

Getting to town didn't take long, especially if you challenged your hyperactive vulpine companion to a race, with not even ten minutes on the clock the two had arrived at the entrance to the town, both were panting and were, unfortunately-

"Ugh! Dammit now my furs all sweatyyyy!" Kiya whined coming to the sad conclusion that winning wasn't always satisfactory. She twitched, her ears picking up Naruto's laughter at her expense causing her fur to stand on end as she turned to her Tamer, "Why you!" She growled, lunging at the blond.

Naruto blinked as Kiya jumped on his back, as if paying her no mind he continued to walk as the Kitsune hung all around him biting his shoulder whilst putting him in a headlock, wrapping her legs around his front midsection.

Awkwardly Naruto waved to a civilian man and his pet Catgirl standing sideways blinking at him, Naruto's head bent at a ninety degree angle, the two bystanders watching as a sixteen year old ignored the attacks from his obviously pissed Kitsune trying to put him in some submission hold.

"Hey Kiya, rrgh- Still injured remember." Naruto whispered, Kiya's growl tingled all throughout his left shoulder, "Mmnno!"

Naruto cringed, "Man, your fur is sweaty." He realized, Kiya's tail hitting his face as he laughed, "Jhherk." She muffled, still futilely trying to bite harder. Upon realizing that he wasn't going to call "Uncle" anytime soon she settled to get him later and jumped off.

"Aha! Here it is." Naruto bolstered at finally sighting the Pokémart, Kiya's eyes held a gleam at the thought of food as she walked forward, it was only until seeing Naruto stay behind did she stop, he was looking around in his supply pouch.

Kiya's tail turned into a question mark, "What are you doing? Let's go inside." She pressured, she also wanted to get some shampoo, waiting impatiently she walked back toward the blond, squinting to see into his pouch, "What are you looking for?"

"We can't forget about Myrel, I'm gonna ask her if she needs anything, we should have enough money to get her supplies as well." He explained, pulling out her pokeball.

At the sight of it Kiya's tail, ears and shoulders dropped.

"Mmnnn~ I don't want her out though!" Kiya whined, Naruto gave her a look.

"Don't talk like that Kiya, she hasn't done anything to you." He defended. Kiya scoffed, "She refused you! In all general principle I should be kicking her ass." Explaining her own reasoning with a stomp for added effect, Naruto looked her in the eye, scolding her before he tossed the Pokéball into the air.

With a flash of red light it was only a matter of seconds before Myrel stood before the two, Naruto having a friendly smile and Kiya pouting with her arms crossed as she looked away.

Myrel winced at the bright rays of sunlight, her eyes adjusting to come to the sight of the blond Tamer and the Kitsune, Myrel looked around taking in the scenery as confusion surrounded her.

"Something wrong?" Naruto asked with a raised brow.

Myrel shrugged, "I kinda expected you not to hold your bargain and just admit me to a Pokécenter, I'm kinda surprised." She replied surprised, most humans would've lied right to her face about letting her tag along, and then just trade her or something.

Naruto smirked, "I'm hurt, we did have an agreement after all."

"Tch." Kiya snorted.

Realizing she was holding them up, and her confusion was showing she put her hands on her hips and narrowed her eyes, "Well what do you want?"

Kiya's eyes roamed anything that didn't involve Myrel in it, so she looked around to the people around her and upon seeing there faces, she quickly left her pout as she uncrossed her arms and raised her brows.

The people's faces, perhaps even a Pokégirl or two, scorn? Or perhaps disgust?

Kiya tilted her head inquisitively, she knew for certain they weren't at her, for when they had passed them earlier with just the two of them they didn't seem to mind nor care.

Following their line of vision she traced it back to the Pokégirl of current importance, Kiya blinked, 'Why are they glaring at Myrel?' Now that she thought of it, Pokégirls here ranged from feline to canine types, from bug types to flying types, although all the flying types were of an avian variety.

Kiya narrowed her eyes, 'There are no Draconic types in this town.' Granted that it wasn't that uncommon to not have any Draconic types in a town, that certainly didn't warrant the negative energy currently focused toward Myrel.

"Oi, Kiya ya coming?"

Kiya's ears twitched as her head spun to see Naruto and Myrel entering the Pokémart, 'Hm, well we won't be staying long.' Kiya washed away, no point in wondering about the customs of a town they weren't going to stay in.

Grabbing a basket on the way in the three were quick to venture to the food section, all the glares and looks of disgust apparently seemed oblivious to Myrel, or she didn't care as she quickly went to grab meat, Naruto picking out different types of cup ramen noodles.

As soon as Myrel was out of earshot Kiya leaned closer to Naruto, "Naruto, have you noticed-"

"That almost everyone is glaring at Myrel?" Naruto assumed, annoyance was clear in his tone, "It's starting to get on my nerves, but as long as they don't do anything it doesn't matter." Naruto finished.

Kiya grabbed bottles of water as she continued, "But what's the reason for them to be glaring at her like that?" She whispered watching as two males walked by, one whispering to his friend as they watched the Dracona move about the store.

Naruto frowned, "I don't know, this world's full of weird stupid ways. My guess is something bad happened concerning Dragon types and now the people here think all Dragon types are bad, I dunno."

'That's for sure.' Kiya thought seeing the nasty look on their faces.

Dropping the subject upon Myrel's return Naruto looked at her "You get what you wanted?"

"This is all I need for food." She answered as she dropped her food of choice into the basket; grabbing canned goods and fruits they decided they were finished with the food section.

The clothing part of the store was obviously on the western side of the building, but Myrel was the only one who needed more clothes, so not to waste time Naruto settled for asking an employee where the Dragon type clothing were located.

Walking up to the nearest employee stacking Pokéchow Naruto waved "Yo, excuse me." He called out from behind the teen, probably a little older than Naruto's henge, eighteen.

The teen smiled as he stood up and turned "Yes, what can I-" Stopping mid-greeting his eyes caught the sight of Myrel behind Naruto, and almost immediately his smile dropped, maybe even darkened, continuing with a different, more demanding tone "Hey sir, could you ball up her." He gestured.

Myrel didn't seem at all surprised, hell she even lowered her head.

Kiya's eyes widened at the sudden change in behavior, then again if a Pokégirl disrespected a human in Blood League of all places, she may very well be put through a level five.

Naruto's muscles tightened at the demand, almost on instinct he thought about putting hands on the elder, taller teen but fought the urge. Staring at the worker for a few hard seconds Naruto slowly ground out, "I don't see a reason to."

The elder male walked closer "We don't allow Draconic Pokégirls to be outside of their Pokéball in any of our stores, it is town policy." He slowly and condescendingly explained.

Myrel merely nodded "Naruto, don't be stupid, just-"

"Myrel." Naruto cut off, Myrel stopped, confused and surprised at his sudden protectiveness 'But why? I'm not his Pokégirl.' Myrel's caught the sight of the Kitsune, turning she saw Kiya giving her an odd smile.

Naruto held a strong stare at the older man, "I want to know where I can find clothing for a Draconic Pokégirl." He stated slowly.

The man grunted "I'm afraid we're all sold out of clothes for your Pokégirl."

Naruto's fist tightened, now that was a damn lie every Pokémart contained clothes for each specific type of Pokégirls and retardant to their respective elements. The man had better tread lightly cause he was starting to boil.

Myrel watched in shock as the air seemed to slowly be sucked out of the area, Kiya had a dark smirk on her face though, apparently she knew something was going to happen; again the man ordered Naruto to ball up Myrel.

"And if I don't?" He asked.

He grew more disgusted then "Then you and your Pokésluts will have to leave."

"Watch it." Naruto growled, his hands were starting to heat up from how hard he had them tightened, his eyes scanned the area, only one would be a witness, down at the end of the aisle, but soon he left and then it was just the four of them in the aisle.

The man had a small smile at the side of his mouth at the sight of how it bothered the blond, so he continued "Whether you realize it or not, that thing will only end up getting you and your Kitsune killed-"

He yelped, Naruto's hand held the man up by the throat with one hand, and the other had a Kunai to his stomach. Myrel flinched in shock, taking a step back in surprise, "N-Naruto!"

The eighteen year old struggled to breathe as his hands held Naruto's forearm, his legs dangling, Kiya and Myrel realized Naruto had grown four inches taller.

Kiya's eyes widened 'When did he change the age of his henge? I didn't even see a handsign?' Looking to Myrel as her mouth became agape, Kiya bit her lower lip, 'Now Naruto just exposed himself to more questions.'

Myrel was in disbelief as the teen had grown from... 'W-wait a minute, when he released me... he looked like he aged three years. And now three more, b-but how is that possible?' She suddenly realized that Naruto's age had changed drastically upon her release compared to last night, last night he looked like a kid, but when he released her he looked sixteen, why hadn't she noticed?

'What is going on?' Myrel's mouth opened and closed with no sound, too shocked to do anything but watch.

Naruto brought him close, his face serious "I'm easy to rile up, so you better watch what you say about my Pokégirls in front of me. It's starting to make me want to kill you." He growled, what especially tipped him off was him adding Kiya into his insults.

"I-I'll yell, then the police will-"

"Then I'll make sure you're not alive to see them get here." Naruto asked.

His eyes widened as he struggled to get air, "Y-you wouldn't! *Gasp* Ack!" The grip around his throat tightened, and he grunted as he felt the tip of the Kunai recede into his stomach, a small amount of blood dripping from the weapon to the porcelain floor.

"B-blood." Myrel stuttered, stumbling back in worry, in all her life she had injured and hurt her fair share of people, but no one had ever died, neither had she ever seen someone die.

The man began to tear up as he sputtered "Ok-okay! I'm sorry-"

Naruto smirked, "Are there really no Dragon type clothes?" He asked, lowering the man to finally get a footing, gasping for air upon feeling the ground, "Ggnn No- I-I lied. It's on the far left of the clothing section!" He whispered.

Naruto smiled, "Now," He looked at his name tag, "Mathew, what I'd suggest is to not call the police cause I will kill you if you do, take the rest of the day off and we'll continue shopping harmlessly." Naruto finished.

Mathew nodded furiously, gasping as soon as Naruto released him he took off holding his lightly cut stomach.

Naruto turned back to them and grinned "I know where the clothes are~"

Kiya sweatdropped, precariously acting as if he hadn't shown Myrel anything she mutelessly followed, leaving Myrel stading there trying to sort things out before she hurried to catch up.

Since he had already revealed the trick, and no one else was there to see, small wisps of smoke appeared around him as he became short back to his sixteen year old facade.

Myrel whispered slowly "Y-you can- How can a human-"

"Please don't say shapeshift." Naruto muttered as he continued to walk, Myrel's teeth closed with a click. The three walked in silence for a few short minutes, Kiya's fur frozen as she waited for the strange atmosphere to dissipate.

Myrel scratched her arm as she struggled to compose herself, saving the thoughts brewing within her head for later, "That wasn't necessary you know." She muttered, changing the subject.

Naruto just nodded, "I know. I just, really don't like it when they treat Pokégirls so different than humans." He replied.

If Myrel had been surprised, she didn't wish to show it again, Naruto having basically said that he considered humans and Pokégirls equal, "If you didn't like his behavior then why not just report him?"

"Myrel, you and I both know the people around here wouldn't do a damn thing, you think they'd care to reprimand him when they think the same way? This whole town thinks like him, I noticed it the moment I released you. I took a straightforward approach because this actually does something and shuts him up!" Naruto answered.

Myrel nodded obviously, "But still, pulling a knife on him won't change him."

"It'll sure as hell make him think twice before insulting another person's Pokégirls." Naruto replied.

No debate about that. Myrel stared, "So you nearly dissected him because you felt like teaching him a lesson? Knowing that a simple threaten would of made him stop?" Naruto merely smiled as Kiya gave a toothy grin.

Myrel blinked at the obvious casualness at not fearing of overstepping the law to rip a jerk a new one, a thing usually seen in criminals or bad Tamers, and yet Myrel really had nothing bad to say about him that didn't interchange with her own opinion.

The Dracona followed the blond closely, now very curious, "How did you-"

"Still not telling you, and I'm not going to so you can save yourself hours of interrogating." He rejected nonchalantly, leaving the Dracona flabbergasted.

A tick mark suddenly appeared on the Dracona's forehead, "I'm not joining your harem just cause you can do little parlor tricks." She bit back, realizing there was a weird connection she felt between him and her, she threw it out as she quickly recollected her frame of mind.

Kiya blanched "Parlor tricks?" Quickly, her face changed, "Listen here dragon breath-"

"Kiya." Naruto cut off making Kiya's ears lower, a pout going across of her face.

Myrel crossed her arms, "Hmph."

Silently Naruto smiled at the Dracona's behavior, so she didn't care all that much, or at least was too curious to expose him,'Now that she's seen a small bit of what I can do, what will she think of me?'

"Hey Kiya, could you take Myrel to the section for dragon types, have her pick out what she needs, I'll meet you two there."

Kiya tilted her head, the thought of having to deal with Myrel alone made her muzzled nose crinkle, "Why, where you going?"

Naruto felt heat go to his cheeks, "I have to get Hinata's... stuff." He kept it vague, Kiya frowned but obliged nonetheless, Myrel following after her. Once out of site Naruto looked to the aisle he stopped at.

Blushing he looked over the different types of bottles on the shelf he stood at, recognizing the insignia he grabbed the... -erm, 'I honestly can't imagine Hinata being pregnant.' Naruto thought to himself as he stared at the bottle containing the pills, just one thing crossed off Hinata's list.

---

"None of these are really combat worthy." Kiya stated with crossed arms.

"I'm looking for clothes that I will be comfortable in, not to battle in, besides I never asked for your opinion." Myrel retorted, friction quickly rising between the two as they glared at the other.

"You're going to need it that's for sure." Kiya growled under her breath, if anything she was going to beat her down before the Dracona found the Tamer she wanted and left, "Still can't believe how picky you are." Kiya huffed.

"Hmph." Myrel looked to Kiya's eyes boring into her's, the Kitsune still angered about her rejection to joining the harem, "I'm not a cradle robber, unlike some of us we don't fuck the nearest dick."

Kiya's tail flicked angrily, "No wonder your master wanted to get rid of you dragon breath. You need to get off your pedestal before it's too late, Naruto's a thousand times better than anyone you'll ever find."

Myrel picked out another set of clothes, "That boy isn't worth wasting my efforts on when I could find a truly exceptional Tamer that meets my standards with the ability to satisfy me."

"Your body's not so perfect." Kiya replied, snorting as if she had a bad taste in her mouth, "And you probably won't find that special swinging dick." sticking her tongue out at the girl at the end of her insult.

Myrel looked at her, then shrugged, "Well, Pokégirls are what their Tamers train them to be." she muttered, talking more to herself than to the Kitsune.

The Kitsune went rigid at the jab at Naruto, "What the hell does that mean?" Kiya snapped.

"Your master's a child, you're acting childish." Even if sixteen was a young age for a Kitsune, and Kiya's behavior was perfectly within her range.

"For the love of- He's fourteen!" Kiya barked, "You make it sound like he's twelve or under, he's one year under the required age, it's not voodoo you know!" She flared, annoyed at how she continued to bring up his age like he was still a kid.

Myrel glanced at Kiya, then humphed irritated, "I know the common starter age is fifteen… tch, they should bump the standard to eighteen." Myrel muttered she herself was eighteen; all her previous Tamers were at least eighteen! She didn't know why, it just bothered her.

Kiya smirked triumphantly, Myrel was just trying to add as many negatives as she could, there was nothing wrong with Naruto being fourteen, but she bit her tongue.

So she grinned, "That's more like it, I knew his age had nothing to do with it!"

"Tch!" Myrel grew a tick mark, "I'm still not joining that half-pint!"

Kiya turned sour, "He just defended you and you still refuse to be a part of his harem." In Kiya's eyes, no other offer could've been more generous; to refuse all that Naruto offered was downright insulting. Although Kiya knew that the Dracona had no knowledge of the abilities and talents Naruto had so she supposed that Myrel could easily overlook him, but just thirty minutes ago he showed her he had the ability to shape shift, and yet she still refused.

Myrel paused for a second, "That was nice of him I admit, but instead of being foolish and wanting to be a hero he should've just balled me back up." The Dracona's wings fluttered shortly after, "Although I am curious about how he changed his age, it explains how he was able to become a Tamer, but still it's not all that impressive, and still not up to my expectations." She then turned back to the Kitsune, "Besides from what I gather you don't seem to like me very much,"

"You caught that?" Kiya asked sarcastically but quickly righted herself, "Well, you didn't turn out like I hoped." She admitted.

Myrel nodded, "So I've got to wonder, why you seem to want me to join you so badly. Maybe you did see it as a huge insult to your Tamer when I refused, but I'm thinking that you just want me for yourself." Myrel's arrogant smirk was clear across her draconic features.

Kiya's ears twitched irritated, she needed to get over herself.

But Kiya's thoughts drifted away to the small bit of accusation pointed her way, why was she pushing Myrel to join Naruto when it was clear she disliked her?

Perhaps she did want to take her body for a round, after all Pokégirl's personalities could change over time, after all she hated Tashira when she first met her, hated her arrogance and cocky attitude, how she belittled her as a newbie and her pathetic skills at the time.

But as time went on, Kiya couldn't help but tease and compete with the Dracass. It was so interesting to compete with such a higher ranking Pokégirl, Dracass's were hard to come by, and her a Kitsune being Tashira's competition felt grand, both were Alpha's so they had a strong competing bond, but also they were best friends, and sex buddies.

So maybe she did want her for herself, her own harem-sister, Tashira had one. She wanted to lead, but she couldn't lead Yue as that was Tashira and Hinata's job, and Naruto was her superior, but if Myrel joined she could keep her tamed when Naruto couldn't. Dracona's were just as rare as Dracass's and the thought of Dominating a rare Pokégirl entertained her, she could also train her when Naruto was doing his own regime, grow a bond as an Alpha... she wanted that.

Or it could be her super-Pokégirl ninja training finally kicked in and she was thinking of all the benefits a Dracona could do for the harem, and the group as whole. Thinking of the skills she could learn and contribute, their working dynamics increasing with her help, and not to mention that they could both be with Naruto.

She wanted to be the knowledgeable one and say, "Okay look here newbie, this is how you do it." like Tashira does with the Cheshire, and as a result she got a clingy feline who only wanted to cuddle after a good taming, which Tashira never gave her the satisfaction of since she hated cuddling, but damn it! It was the principle of it all.

To just let all that go through her furry fingers just because the damn bitch didn't like Naruto's age would be a waste! What did it matter, in a year he'd be at a Tamer's age anyway?

"Hey Kitsune, what do you think." Myrel interrupted, Kiya's mind was shoved back to reality, seeing the Dracona holding up a violet T-shirt, the words written in a lovely blue, 'You know you want to!" Kiya had to say the shirt really brought out her eyes and hair, mixed in with the golden tint of her skin, which were actually really small scales, made her into an elegant work of beauty.

Kiya's eyes dared to wander, 'Those boobs would fill out that shirt nicely too.' the thought of her completing the outfit with black spandex to show off her posterior, Kiya wished not to get carried away.

Slightly displeased when Myrel's personality was added to the mix, Kiya shrugged, "Its fine."

Dragon type clothing were made to fit a Dragon Pokégirl's wings and tail in and not rip the clothing, but it wasn't anything fancy, in the back of the violet shirt were two rows of three blue buttons from the shoulder blades to the bottom of the shirt, this way a Pokégirl with wings could unbutton the back, slide their shirt on, then button up to the bottom of the girl's wings, much the same went for pants ranging from zippers in jeans, buttons for sweatpants, or just a hole for the spandex.

Myrel smirked, she didn't need Kiya's approval to know that the outfit would make her look dazzling, and she could swear she saw the vulpine Pokégirl's eyes flicker to the spandex pants on the rack near her, "I'm going to try this on." Was all she needed to say before she fled to the changing booth, shirt and spandex in hand?

Not knowing what to do Kiya picked up the basket of food and the clothes Myrel picked out and followed, standing near the booth she set down the basket and waited.

---

She stood there with her arms crossed, wearing a large t-shirt the teen had her put on to hide her frame, going down to her knees was a reason why she was extremely pissed right now. Not only was her figure completely ruined with the huge shirt he had her put on, naked below the waist she stood barefoot on the store carpet, he stood ahead of her picking out all the clothes she despised.

The Succumbus's nose crinkled at the sight of these tight combat clothing her Tamer continued to pile into the cart they carried, cargo pants, long sleeved shirts and vests; all of it wasn't much her color.

He was observing rather baggy looking pants with a thousand pockets; he had worked her last nerve, and she lost her patience, "You've got to be fucking kidding me!" She snapped, not caring who heard.

She picked up a set of clothing set for a Kunoichi, struggling not to just rip it in half, "Are you trying to make me look like a fucking Tomboy! You can't even see my ass in these damn things; the stupid ninja vest is going to completely make me look flat!" Becoming angrier and angrier at the sight of the lack-of-appeal these clothes would do to her, her tail lashed back and forth in fury, the wings on her head flapping anxiously.

He merely glanced at her, "That's the least of your problems."

"The hell it is!" She snapped, "You're going to regret-" She stopped herself when he suddenly threw a handful of mesh shirts, and spandex pants into the cart.

She was silent for a few seconds, and then picked up a mesh shirt, turned to look at herself in a mirror hung up near her. Narrowing her eyes she lifted up the large shirt she wore up to her neck, freeing her large assets she held the mesh in front of it.

Raising a brow she smirked, "That's better."

"You'll be wearing those combat clothes for exactly that reason: Fighting, sparring, and training. Aside from that when we aren't doing any of the three I don't care what you wear. Find what you like, and be quick about it." He ordered.

Turning back to her she saw that she was already gone and back with Oh so many varieties of clothes: Tight Spandex, high cut t-shirts, low cut shorts; low-cut jeans, skimpy tank-tops; bikinis, bras and panties, and an unnecessary amount of leather and lingerie.

"Now that's more like it." She smirked alluringly.

The teen narrowed his eyes, thinking that she may be more trouble than she was beneficial, "Go to the changing room, after you confirm that all those clothes are proportionate, do whatever you like, but wait near the booth. Understood." Not waiting for a reply he left.

She snarled at the order, "Where you going hardass?" But he ignored her, making her tail flick angrily, "That fucking... hm." She stopped, a smile overtaking her devilish features, "In due time my love."

Hard to get... she liked that. Her smile quickly turned to a frown as she pushed the cart toward the booth. With a grimace, she took all the fighting clothes in first with her.

She was not merciful during the review on the way she looked with the black ninja wardrobe on, the only good thing about it was that it made her menacing, intimidating and scary, but yet also trained, with the appearances of a dangerously skilled Pokégirl.

On the bad side it did absolutely nothing to show her figure, it looked horrible on her radar of appeal, hell it wasn't even on the radar screen. The get-up chafed, weighed four pounds all together, constricted her body and she was already beginning to get a little sweaty, although only wearing the mesh shirt looked dangerously daring on her, with a touch of a combat specialist.

Now with the confirmation that the clothing fit, she was quite eager to go out and switch them for the much sexier, and daring outfits, and after a dangerously short amount of consideration, she just had to have them all; She kept the leather biker shorts, and black tank top on, putting the other clothes back in the cart she tossed the large baggy shirt she worn when coming into the store.

Although now that she was done trying on clothes she frowned at the concept of merely waiting here for the stiff bastard to return, her time would be spent in loneliness and silence, which wasn't bad, but a little company would do, especially one she could toy wi-

'Now hold on... Well, speak of the devil.' Upon leaving the changing room her eyes set sights on a admittedly, petite young thing overlooking clothes at a t-shirt rack. She blinked for a second, and then the Succumbus let loose a devilish smile, 'Perhaps my time without the hardass, won't be too boring.' Just something to pass the time, it was about time she had a meal.

"My, my... is this a Kitsune I spy with my Succumbus eyes?" She whispered darkly, in a matter of seconds her eyes and body began to glow as she projected her aura unto the unsuspecting victim.

And as she stood there unaware of what was to come, the Succumbus could clearly imagine what went through the Kitsune's mind as if it were her own, well she had done this many times before when it came time to feed.

The vulpine girl's body froze, feeling an aura creep up on her unsuspectingly, now with her guard down she knew that she was vulnerable as the user's technique did exactly what it was supposed to.

Kiya's thoughts ran a million miles per second as she tried to think about what exactly was happening to her, the aura around her frightened her, but clung to her so close that she couldn't escape, the atmospheric pressure building up Kiya's tension, 'Who would be targeting me though?'

A deep chill came up her spine as a delicate pair of hands rested on her hips and somewhere in the back of her mind, there was an exchange almost like a conversation, but was completely foreign to her. Kiya was much more concerned with the way her nipples hardened and rubbed across the inside of her clothes, the wetness that was slowly building between her legs, the feel of a Succumbus's burning breath blowing down her sensitive neck causing her hair to stand on end.

There was power not like she was used to, it was darker and unlike Naruto and Hinata's, was perfectly willing to display its malevolent nature, and there was so much evil coming off of the female behind her in waves.

Kiya recognized its nature, 'An Infernal?'

The Pokégirl was taller than her she was sure, her lips leaning in and rubbing against her furred ear as she took in her scent, sniffing loudly enough to make Kiya tense up even further, before she released a blissful sigh, "I can smell your discomfort, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." She whispered in her ear, her words caressed the confused Pokégirl.

Kiya felt the Infernal's tail toying with her's, it was thin and had a pronged tip and suddenly it all became clear, "Succumbus..." She murmured, releasing a whimpering moan as the Succumbus's tail coiled around her's like a Naga getting ready to eat its prey.

She should've moved, she should've fought back, but all she did was stand there and whimper as the Succumbus's hands traveled her body curiously. Naruto and Hinata trained her to resist a lot of things: Pain, fatigue, even her hunger. Kiya had no experience with resisting temptation, sexual techniques, or aura's; she had been a useless vegetable when Naruto lost it, her body was frozen from the Succumbus's aura, and tempted by the things her words and hands were doing to her.

She would fuck no other Tamer than her own, not even Hinata, but a Pokégirl was a completely different story and she could do nothing but moan like a kitten at the hands of the experienced sex demon.

"You're a cute little Kitsune you know?" She whispered, feeling the creature shudder in her arms as she pushed her hands up the Pokégirl's shirt, the Kitsune neither refusing nor accepting her sexual attitude.

The Succumbus smirked, her advances becoming successful as she felt the Kitsune's nipples harden under her fingers. Running her tongue along the Pokégirl's ear, she used her tail to dominate her's.

'Finally.' She thought, coming to the peak of her little mission as she finally got the Kitsune to become aroused, sensing the sexual energy leaving her body in little wisps. The Succumbus smiled darkly, sucking in the sexual aroma, she began eating.

Not two minutes later three people walked into the scene, all displaying surprise of their own, "Succumbus!" Her tamer hissed.

A Dracona stood silently watching in shock, before she had been quickly put back into her pokeball.

Someone else gasped in surprise at one of his Pokégirls being assaulted.

The Succumbus's body became frigid, feeling the Kitsune in her arms disappear before she was full, something flashed through her mind in white hot fury at being interrupted and soon she didn't care about anything else, she was angry, "You! Fucker!" She screeched, turning to the Tamer who recalled the Pokégirl and charged.

---

Having gotten what Hinata requested, he had begun his walk to meet up with Myrel and Kiya before they ripped each other's heads off. But upon passing the traveler's aisle there was something that caught his attention.

He was rooted to the ground, his eyes watching the man who stood examining a pair of brown hiking boots, 'Sasuke?' His eyes, even his expression mimicked that of the Uchiha's face whenever he'd get annoyed.

Standing at least three inches taller than Naruto he looked around the age of eighteen compared to Naruto's sixteen year old facade. His hair was spiky like before, only a lot longer, going down to his shoulders.

Naruto couldn't help but stare for so long 'He looks almost exactly like him, only older... Sasuke.' Coming into focus, Naruto blinked seeing that the teen had taken notice of his presence.

His stare was of mild curiosity "Do you need something?"

Naruto was silent at first, hurrying to gather his thoughts and close his mouth. Irritation, and aggravation rolled off of the guy in waves, he didn't show it though.

He shifted to the boots he held in his hand "No, nothing. Are you looking for clothing?" He quickly changed the subject.

Naruto saw his irritation and aggravation come to the surface as he looked back to the boots he held "I've already dealt with the clothing, I am somewhat unsure of the gear, for my Pokégirl." He explained, as he looked back to the hiking boots on the shelf.

Naruto tilted his head "She's a loose cannon?" Naruto guessed, feeling a 'Myrel' vibe at the way he mentioned his Pokégirl.

He chuckled for a moment as he rubbed his head "She's hard to deal with, but it's nothing completely out of my hands."

"They always are." Naruto muttered under his breath, watching in amusement how the Sasuke similar, laughed in a un-Sasuke like way.

"Then you've got one as well?" He questioned.

Naruto grinned and scratched his cheek "Something like that, she doesn't necessarily belong to me." He replied.

"Sounds complicated." He assumed.

"It's harder than I'd like it to be." Naruto agreed, he didn't know why he wanted to talk to him, but he was like a nicer version of Sasuke. Myrel and Kiya couldn't be left alone for long, what was he doing? "So, what are you shopping for?"

The nineteen year old chuckled "I'm preparing my Pokégirl for the wild." He smirked.

"Are you a Tamer?" Naruto asked, to which he nodded.

"I'm guessing you're buying stuff for your Pokégirl as well?" His eyes fixated on the bottle he had in hand. Naruto blushed, opening his mouth to explain but he cut him off with a careless wave "I don't need to know. A little precaution's good I guess."

Naruto ashamedly nodded red-faced, then changed the subject "What type of gear are you looking for? Maybe I could help?"

He looked back to the boots in his hands and frowned, before shifting it to one hand to feel it out "It's too light and the material is bound to wear out faster than what I want. From the looks of it high price doesn't always mean equal quality. You look like you know a thing or two about acquiring the right gear. What type of hiking boots are those?" He inquired.

Naruto looked down to his black steel-toed combat boots "These boots aren't for hiking, they're for combat. They aren't usually bought because each weighs five pounds."

He looked interested "I haven't come across those, do you know where I could? This material's beginning to annoy me." He muttered, looking at the boots he held.

Naruto shrugged "You won't find any in a PokéMart, but you can find them in weapon stores."

He looked intrigued "Weapon stores?" Putting the boots back on the shelf he picked up a basket filled with other traveling supplies, a Poképact, and sleeping bag and so on "What's your name?"

Naruto blanched, 'Weird, I figured anyone from this world would know, then again a beginning Tamer wouldn't know what to get. But he doesn't look like a beginner; he's older than the ones I've seen, although I suppose he could've just decided to become one, but still.' Naruto smiled big "My names Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki." He introduced.

He paused for moment, as if trying to remember something "Naruto... I feel like I've heard that name before."

Naruto's heart skipped a beat, had he screwed up and got his face plastered onto the news? He quickly waved his hand "Uh, Naruto's a pretty common name." He blurted, 'Idiot, stupid!'

The Tamer stared at him for a moment "I suppose. Could you tell me about the stores while we walk? My Pokégirl's unsupervised at the changing booth."

Naruto nodded "Okay, I was headed there to." he agreed, as they turned and headed for the changing booth.

Naruto turned to the taller Tamer "Hey, what's your name by the way?"

He seemed to be contemplating it, then after a minute or so "My name... Just call me Taka." He cut into his own introduction at the sight of a female employee looking at the two of them.

Seeing an employee walk by observing the two's attire seemed to strike some sort of memory in the older teen, "Hey Naruto," Naruto looked at him questioningly "Ever since I got here people have been giving one of my Pokégirls' strange looks, can you tell me anything about it?"

Naruto's brows raised, finding out Myrel wasn't the only Pokegirl being scorned aroused disgust within him toward these towns' people, he looked at the taller teen "What made you think I know?"

He glanced to the blond in confusion "So you're not from around here either?"

Naruto crossed his arms and grumbled "Thank Kami I'm not. I don't know what their problem is, but I know what you're talking about, I noticed it too." he replied.

Taka raised a brow, "What happened?" Apparently he wanted to know Naruto's opinion of this.

The blond rubbed the back of his head in a somewhat guilty manner "I've had to give one of these people a piece of my mind for spewing insults at my friend, a Dracona." He explained with a sigh.

Taka was silent for a moment "This town disgusts me." Disciplining a Pokégirl he knew was necessary, but to outright mistreat and ridicule a specific type because of unrelated matters, that pissed him off.

"It's not just this town, there are so many people in this world. Them and their screwed up views." Naruto muttered, honestly if the people got any worse with their hatred he was going to get physically sick.

"Well let's hope the pricks get what's coming to them." He replied, Naruto couldn't help but smile, "Anyway we're straying, about the weapon stores."

Raising a brow Naruto shrugged before he proceeded to tell him what was usually sold in it, and where they could be found in a city, a town this small wasn't likely to have it.

Upon arriving at the changing booth Naruto and Taka both stopped their discussion, a shocking sight meeting their eyes. Kiya stood whimpering as a Pokégirl with a whip-like tail and wings sucked off her neck like a leech.

Second was Myrel coming out of the booth and reacting in surprise as well and the third was the hiss of anger from Taka, "Succumbus!"

Quickly it registered in his mind that Kiya was being attacked and before the next second could tick by he had both Kiya and Myrel back into their Pokéballs.

What he didn't expect was the Succumbus to suddenly fill with anger, and the next thing he saw was her charging at him, "You! Fucker!"

Naruto took a step back, not suspecting such an intense reaction from the Pokégirl he readied his defense, the dark looking Pokégirl's eyes screaming rage as she bared her fangs, 'W-what is she?'

Taka suddenly appeared before Naruto, his face was the same as it had always been as his back was turned on the charging Pokégirl. Naruto watched as the Succumbus's eyes widened in surprise as she came to a screeching stop just a few inches short from crashing into the teen.

Naruto's eyes widened in confusion, 'When did Taka move?'

The Pokégirl's ragged breaths cut through the silence and looked to her Tamer blocking her path.

"Hey... what do you think you're doing?" Taka ground out.

The Succumbus froze, backtracking what she did wrong, "... Mast- Ack!" She dropped to her knees cradling her stomach in pain.

Naruto breath hitched in shock. An elbow to the stomach from Taka held enough power to drop a Pokégirl?

Naruto quickly made the connection of whom the Pokégirl belonged to, "This is your Succumbus, Taka?" Eyes drifting to the Pokégirl struggling to choke back the pain.

"Fuck!" she hacked out through gritted teeth, looking to glare at her Tamer, "What... the hell, Sas- Kuh!" The back of her tamer's heel meeting the front of her face and knocking her on her back. She rolled over, covered her face and hissed into the palm of her hand, blood beginning to protrude from her nose.

Naruto and Taka shared a short momentary glance before it was over almost as soon as it began, Taka took his eyes away from Naruto, bowing his head somewhat, "Tch, forgive my Pokégirl. She is a newly captured, I shouldn't have left her alone." He explained more than apologized, all doing so monotonously.

Naruto was quiet, 'A newly captured...' Was it the Pokégirl's fault if she was only going off instincts?

The blond teenager found himself replying, "... It's okay... Not a big deal." Naruto muttered, still piecing together exactly what happened.

The stoic Tamer reached down, grabbed the Succumbus by the hair and pulled her to her feet, "Ow! Okay, okay, I'm sorry!" She cried out as he pushed her to walk, Taka gave a brief nod toward him, "I'm sorry about your Kitsune. I need to get going."

Naruto stared at him, not knowing how to take the situation, "Yeah. Goodbye then." It was strange, the atmosphere around him, the way he acted and that speed... it almost reminded him...

He nodded in return, "Hn, goodbye Naruto." Turning to follow after the Succumbus who was seething at how her pride had been easily stripped down before a stranger.

Naruto froze, on the inside and out, 'Wha-?' It hadn't been what he said, it was the way he had said it, it sounded just like... "Sasuke."

Taka stopped, standing there for a moment before turning to Naruto, "What did you say?"

Naruto immediately snapped out his shocked state, reminding himself of all the things that differed Sasuke and Taka, 'What am I thinking... it couldn't be. No, I'm definitely wrong, snap out of it before you end up giving yourself away!' Ever since the Chuunin exams Naruto had always sensed a dark aura around him because of that curse mark... he didn't sense that with Taka.

Naruto looked to the Tamer staring at him, then shook his head and waved his hand, "Ah, nothing. I didn't say anything. Erm- Good luck Taka."

In return he narrowed his eyes but nodded nonetheless before being on his way.

---

He waited ten minutes in silence, and then another five was spent sealing the clothes Myrel had picked out, along with the food, and Hinata's supplies within a spare scroll. Giving enough time for Taka and his Pokégirl to leave the PokéMart. Now, expectantly, he waited anxiously for Kiya and Myrel to materialize into existence.

Myrel looked confused, watching as Kiya stood there positioning herself to be purposefully inferior to Naruto's frame. Her tail shied away between her legs, and her ears went flat under Naruto's concerned gaze, Kiya purposefully adverting her own from her Tamer, "Naruto, I-"

"Kiya, you aren't hurt at all are you?" She shook her head, and then tried to speak again. He walked closer, putting his thumb and forefinger on her jaw he tilted her head to look where the Succumbus suckled to check for some type of injury.

Kiya had a shameful look on her face, like she had done something she wasn't supposed to, "Master, I'm sorry. I let my guard down, and I... I wasn't expecting-"

"No, it's okay Kiya, it's my fault. I shouldn't have left you two alone, if something happened that was worse than this," He didn't see anything, "I'm glad you weren't hurt, please forgive me Kiya-chan."

Kiya yipped in shock, lifting her head she protested, "M-master, it's not your fault, I ignored one of the most important lesson's you and Hinata taught us... because of it." He lifted her muzzle, and looked her in the eyes, and suddenly she felt her legs melt.

"Naruto." He stated, Kiya blushed realizing her mistake in calling him master again, "I should've seen something like this coming, with the way this world is. You can't be blamed for not being trained for a situation like that. Kiya, I swear to you. At the next opportunity, we'll correct this okay?" He whispered softly, a caring and loving smile was all that was needed for Kiya's eyes to tear up.

She pushed her head into his chest, and wrapped her arms around him pathetically, "R-right, *Sniff* Naruto." She yipped softly, feeling as if she was nothing but a Pokékit again, to be held vulnerable, to look so weak in front of her master; she could feel no greater humiliation. But it was his understanding attitude, the care and concern in his eyes, all the faith he had in her, she felt so undeserving.

He didn't see her as pathetic, not even vulnerable, only a victim of a technique she didn't know how to resist. Wrapping his arms around her, he stood there as Kiya proceeded to release tears into his shirt, and Naruto smiled and patted her head, "Oi, oi, Kiya. Everything's going to be okay." He muttered, she yipped and whimpered in return.

At least ten insults and taunts ran through her mind off the top of Myrel's head about the two, but yet she held them back, and watched how a caring Tamer was supposed to act as he comforted his Pokégirl, she had never had an owner as such.

Almost simultaneously, Myrel and Kiya's ear twitched, Myrel turned away from the pair and out to the forest of clothes, beyond that she picked up the sound of running, "He walked into that area!" The voice was similar to the one from before.

Myrel turned to Naruto, "Looks like he didn't take your advice."

Naruto let out a hollow chuckle, and then sighed, "I figured as much." He looked down to see a pair of big teary Kitsune eyes looking up at him, "It's alright; we'll talk later Kiya-chan. I'm sorry." Then he kissed the top of her head, sorry that she had to return to her pokeball already, Kiya hated it in there.

"Its fine, I understand." She mumbled, wiping away her tears, soon turning into a red light of transparency, Myrel was the next to be sent back to her pokeball.

Naruto rubbed the back of his neck with one hand, and put his pokeballs in his pouch with the other, 'I was hoping to get some more ramen too. Damn it, I'm so exhausted...' He thought, from the sound of it they were closing in fast and he didn't have less than three seconds to decide who he would take up, going with the first name running through his mind.

'Just hope my bodies stable enough to at least be half as quick before being hurt.' He put his hands together, "... Henge....Kage Bunshin No Jutsu." He was shorter, fourteen again and felt so many times more strained, he could already feel his sensitive chakra coils tightening with effort, he nodded to the clone, and it bounded off, Mathew shouldn't be too far.

Naruto winced, 'My coils... At this rate, I won't be able to hold off a Henge for even a few minutes.' It seemed he abused the Henge and Kage Bunshin more severely than he thought.

Slowly he raised his hands-

"Freeze! Hey boy, an employee stated that there was a Tamer who assaulted him, and that he would be located here-"

"Mathew." Naruto said, turning to look at three Pokégirls, and a male officer, each of them halting their gun, or in the furry Pokégirl's case, her nightstick, one of them didn't seem to have a weapon.

"What?" The male officer asked confused.

"Mathew, that was the employee's name correct? He's going to die very soon." He explained, much like one for the inevitable.

They directed their weapons at him; Naruto was hoping the teen employee hadn't given these guys a description of his appearance, only his location it sounded like so far, "Are you involved in this matter?" The OfficerJenny demanded.

"Yes, that was me." He admitted as he lowered his hands, they looked doubtful, "I was the one who cut his lower abdomen, and threatened to kill him." He retrieved a kunai, smirking much like the way his friend would have.

Judging from the widening of their eyes, Mathew hadn't told them that he had blond hair, not black. Now to hit the final nail in the coffin, clearing any suspicion of Naruto's real identity, "My name is Sasuke Uchiha."

The OfficerJenny stepped forward pointing her stun gun, "Sasuke Uchiha: You are hereby placed under arrest. The victim stated the assailant was a Tamer, if you are indeed a Tamer you are charged on three accounts: First, you are under the required age limit, in which case means you illegally acquired a Tamer's License; second is your involvement in the assault of a civilian; And third is possession of a deadly weapon." She states, "Follow cooperatively and you will be taken in unharmed."

He grinned, now Naruto Uzumaki was off the spotlight and no one would be able to correct these guys on their mistake of identity, "You'll have to catch me first!" Said the thirteen year old form of his best friend.

"Humph." Crossing her arms she continued to release a hiss out of the bottom of her throat, not at all pleased with how things ended with the Kitsune, or how Sasuke handled the situation, "We could've taken them, all of them."

They were now leaving the town, the eighteen year old male was now a few inches shorter and turned two years back, his mind seemingly occupied with something else as he continued to look back at the town they left behind.

"Sasuke!" She growled.

"I can't leave you alone." Sasuke condescendingly stated "What's the point in causing unnecessary conflicts and drawing unneeded attention. I should be asking you questions, like why you were coiled around another person's Pokégirl and sucking off her neck?"

The Pokégirl in return huffed "I was feeding." She replied as if it explained everything.

Sasuke raised his brow "Feeding." He rephrased.

She looked at him as if he should of known "Yeah, Succumbus' feed off the energy that sex creates, the aroma of arousal. That energy is just like you eating- what, you haven't checked your dex'?" She questioned, only for him to become quiet.

The Succubus stuck out her claws, "I had the little whore within the palm of my hand!" her tail lashed around viciously; "You could've had your way with the her, and killed the stupid blond!" She hissed.

He rolled his eyes "Shut up. The last thing I need is to be branded as a criminal. We're done here." Sasuke finished, ending the topic he pulled out his Pokéballs; the Succumbus crossed her arms and silently seethed.

Sasuke then raised a brow, and shook his head, "You're so stubborn... Lilith." Having just come up with it.

The Succumbus's left brow twitched, "Lilith? That's the best you can come up with? I'm not a fucking vampire." She insulted, if this teen would just cooperate with her he'd be so... Taking a few quick moments to collect herself she sighed, knowing that the only reason she fussed was because of what happened in the store... looking back toward her Tamer she grunted, then turned away, "... The names fine."

"Hn." He grunted, taking one last glance at the town before it was gone from his sight.

Lilith scowled, rubbing her aching face from where Sasuke drove in his heel, "What the hell's wrong with you, you've been acting weird ever since we left the store?" Her curiosity peaked.

Sasuke shook his head, "Nothing... I don't know, it just felt like I knew him somehow." He muttered glancing to the Succumbus all he saw was confusion, releasing a small grunt he forced it out of his mind, "Never mind... forget I said anything." Quietly Lilith looked her Tamer up and down in interest, watching silently as he released his remaining harem.

The girl with the sword, she was the first to speak, "Was the shopping satisfactory master?"

Sasuke smirked, "I got what I came for, we continue to the White Lotus league."

"Understood." All of the harem excluding Lilith, stated in unison.

The Succumbus crossed her arms curiously, "What's in White Lotus league?"

Sasuke turned to her, "We're going to meet the Espers," Sasuke then looked to his alpha, "If she is in fact telling the truth."

Nova rolled her eyes, "Whatever happened to your trust?" She questioned.

"You haven't earned it yet." He replied, all of their supplies were packed and each Pokégirl carried their own weight.

Nova's tail whipped in aggravation, "I'm sure that if anyone could restore your memory, it'd be them." Nova assured, then smiled sarcastically, "Unless you want to ask the Legendaries?" Lilith watched the exchange quietly looking from the Pokégirl to her Tamer.

Sasuke was silent, perhaps for too long, Lilith noticed the look of sudden fear in some of his harems eyes, as if they were afraid he would actually consider hunting down the Legendaries.

"Hn." Sasuke nodded slowly, not knowing everything about himself was becoming quite an annoyance, only bits and pieces of himself he remembered, his name, even the strange abilities he seemed to be gifted with that no other human male had... but nothing of his life, or the people previously in it, 'Perhaps Naruto... I should look into his background in the future... Naruto Uzumaki.'

He had been lost at first, waking up within the clutches of a Pokégirl that he now declared his alpha. He tamed her, then telling her of what he remembered, the things he could do, and added to the fact she found him within a crater in nothing but rags she told him of the Espers.

First he would meet these Espers, and if that failed... Earlier, he learned of those Trauma criminals and the technology they possessed. Maybe, just maybe they had the technology that could help if these Espers proved useless.

The Legendaries? Perhaps as a last resort.

She swiveled in her chair to turn back to the camera, "Thank you Cassandra. On a related note, in the western area of Blood, Arbor town. Police attempted to apprehend a Tamer today. One of the employees of a fellow PokéMart claims to have been assaulted by a Tamer for no apparent reason, managing to run away the victim quickly alerted the police of the event.

"All that the employee gave was his location, and so Officer Hamelton, his Officer Jenny, and Denmother went to arrest the Tamer, but he showed skills they hadn't suspected as he narrowly evaded them, apparently destroying as much equipment and stealing what he could grab before disappearing from the area. The employee from PokéMart was nowhere to be found after the perpetrator's disappearance, Police suspect that the perpetrator may have taken him but they are not sure; Officer Hamelton says that the Tamer admitted to assaulting the employee and even gave his name: Sasuke Uchiha, a sketch was quickly drawn up by Officer Hamelton's Ar-Tits: Ashley."

The sketch of the perpetrator quickly showed on screen of a teen who looked to be around the age of thirteen to fourteen, "Anyone who sees this Tamer should alert the police immediately, looks to be around the age of fourteen, how he became a Tamer at his current age is unknown, he is extremely agile, strong and quicker than an average human male, and a possible murderer: Be on a look out."

"What an interesting development." She mused, resting her chin on the tip of her fingers she rewound the tape brought to her a couple of days ago.

"Dr. Vanquenterra." Holding out a cup of coffee to her master the Rack-Sasha looked up to the screen showing two young kids suddenly become taller and older.

"Oh, thank you Sasha." Nisha muttered as she took it and sipped it.

"So, what have you found so far Master?" Sasha asked.

"Well," The scientist began as she put down the drink and wiped her mouth, "Thanks to little Diana giving me this footage, I managed to cross-reference they're appearances with all the known Pokédex profile pictures, took longer than I thought but no matter."

"So why is that important?" a muscled Pokégirl asked, standing behind her master's chair with her arms crossed.

Vanquenterra turned to Tala and pouted before clicking a button showing two people's profile's programmed into their 'dex.

"They're names are Naruto Uzumaki, and Hinata Hyuuga; it says that they're now sixteen but the camera shows otherwise, judging by their behavior and facial construction I've deducted that they are both thirteen to fourteen years old."

"They have the ability to manipulate their age?" Sasha asked.

"Or their appearances altogether." A Vampira muttered.

Nisha leaned forward, "Says here they got their Licenses in Edo, more specifically in Kenzel's area, but check this; Origin: Orange League."

"And what's the significance of that?"

"I brushed up on my Orange history and every citizen to leave the islands was over eighteen. It begs the question, why would children such as them be allowed on a ferry without a guardian, and why go to Edo league to get their license?" Nisha asked.

All her Pokégirls stared at her.

"Orange continent citizens hate Edo." She stated obviously.

"So that brings us two possible reasons." The Vampira concluded.

"Either they've got a lot of pull in Orange league, which is very unlikely seeing as how they must've still been in their pre-pubescent years when getting out of the league." Tala muttered.

"Or they're not actually from the Orange continent." Sasha finished.

"Exactly, I also looked into the meaning of their names, the names are of Japanese origin and there are no Japanese names in Orange league, but there are in Edo." Nisha explained before swiveling in her chair back to the monitor.

"What to hide if they felt the need to BS a tamer evaluation and risk the government finding out?" Nisha asked before replaying the scene with both Naruto and Hinata changing their age, "At first I suspected they were using magic, but appearance altering spells are more complicated than that, and then I noticed something."

Pausing the video once the smoke cleared Nisha glanced to her Pokégirls, "What kind of clothing does a magic user usually wear?"

Mostly robes and cloaks, something loose and able to move around freely, Sasha raised a brow at the teenagers on the screen before her eyes widened, "Combat clothing." She realized.

"Correct, so what technique would they have used if it wasn't magic? Illusions only work on the brains perception, and if the camera still saw it, that crosses that out. I looked up all types of techniques that could be executed through certain types of energies, the only one that could explain it is the same type of energy a Kunoichi uses." Vanquenterra explained.

"You think they're using chakra?" Sasha asked.

"To an unbelievable extent, most chakra users can only use a few techniques, none of them matching what they are doing here," Rewinding the video back a few minutes she paused it, stopping with the female Tamer sealing the scattered tech into a scroll, "Ever seen Chakra users do that?"

No they hadn't. The Vampira crossed her arms, "So what does this mean?"

Vanquenterra turned back to the monitor, "Not sure yet, we have two intelligent fighters with more knowledge of Chakra than anyone recorded through history; and yet they feel the need to hide and lie to the Government; and on top of that they're barely hitting puberty, running through the continents playing hero and have no family background what so ever. The longer we wait, information predicts they'll only get stronger, but they don't show motives for a criminal which means bad news for us and cuts out any possible dealing with them.

"It can't be mistaken: that's the tech the fool Kenzel had within his possession, so possibly they know everything Kenzel knew and they'll be coming after us judging by the fact their route shows that they had come straight to Ruby League only months after Kenzel's operation busted."

All her Pokégirls blanched, Tala looking at the children on the screen again, "But they're just kids, how could they be that much of a threat?"

Vanquenterra chuckled, "They're smart: You think they just stumbled upon Kenzel's work by accident? Luring his only trauma team out to the mountains before exposing him and taking his data? Think of the bigger picture Tala, they may be children, but they know who we are, what we're trying to do and their abilities are more advanced than what we know of."

Tala gulped at her master's piercing glare, "Are they planning on exposing us to the Leagues as well?"

Nisha shrugged, "I doubt it, if they reported what they know of Trauma, they'd have a psychic do an examination on them which would result in them exposing themselves."

Visibly all the Pokégirls relaxed, "Well is there any way to track them? Find out where they are and capture them?" The Vampira asked.

"Yes actually, I was able to hack into their 'dexs mainframe and increase the signal their transmitters give off."

"What does that mean exactly?" The Vampira asked.

"Every pokedex has a transmitter wired into it so the satellites can catch the signal it gives off," Nisha explained as she brought up a large map on the monitor, over thousands and thousands of red dots littered the map, "This way, the League Governments can find any Tamer they want, but most renound criminals are smart enough to disable the transmitter. If any normal Tamer disables it they're automatically considered criminals." And each pokedex had its own code, so Nisha couldn't hack into any pokedex and just find anyone.

With as many criminals out in the world that hadn't disabled the transmitter, you'd think that they be easily found and apprehended, but the Governments didn't concern themselves with mundane affairs such as small time crooks and thieves, they would be wasting a hell of a lot of money and resources just to find these criminals if they tried, which is where police and bounty hunters come in, the Governments only really used the tracking of transmitters for serious threats, that is if the threat hadn't already developed a counter-measure.

The sleeper she had stationed in the Hotel helped tremendously with this. Upon these teenagers checking out, her subordinate scanned their Pokédexes to complete the money transaction; bringing up their Profile on the Pokédexes she recorded their 'dexs security code and sent it to Vanquenterra giving her the ability to hack into their Pokédexes mainframe.

Vanquenterra brought up Naruto and Hinata's Bio's, "I increased the strength of their transmitters and color coded the signal the Satellite labels it as. That way where every other Tamer has a red transmitter, these two would have blue."

"So we can find out where they are right now?" Sasha asked.

"Well we could have, but the Satellite stopped picking up their signals just a couple days ago," Nisha muttered irritated, "There's only two possible explanations as to why: Either they disabled the transmitters or they broke them."

"Would they really be careless enough to break them?" The Vampira fumed.

"Where do their coordinates stop?" Sasha asked.

Nisha's fingers worked expertly across the keyboard, "Last transmission says they're in the Blood continent."

"Well let's go hunt them down." Tala ground out, "Send out research teams."

"This transmission was a few days ago, they could be three continents away by now for all we know, it'd just be a wild goose-chase, and a waste of our men and resources. The only logical thing to do is to wait until they get a new 'dex, have a sleeper scan their dex, wait to receive the data and enter the new code. I severely doubt they'd put themselves off as criminals, and they are fairly intelligent so they may have broke them purposely to hold us off." Nisha replied, all the Pokégirls around her crossed they're arms irritably.

"Damn who are these children?" Sasha asked, to have expected their plans of pursuit, they really were more of a threat than she first suspected.
