Disclaimer: First Chapter
Story Start!
"Why are we here?" Naruto asked as he looked around the candle lit room, and in the room with him were Stein and Tsubaki. Smelling the room itself he found out that Maka and Soul had been here not to long ago. The smell of the room itself was starting to aggitate his nose, but he could deal with it.
"Lord Death has decided that all the top members of the EAT Class are going to be doing an extra training activity with their partners. It will help improve your soul resonation rate, and yes, Lord Death has told me to tell you this is mandatory." Stein stated in a bored tone while smoking a cigerette. Tsubaki seemed a little bothered by the death stick, but Naruto just ignored it.
"What do we have to do Stein-sensei?" Tsubaki asked with a tilt of her head, and Naruto payed a little attention to the response to this as well. He figured it had something to do with the candles, but he was not 100 percent sure.
"Sit on the ground in front of each other, and list out the others faults." Stein explained, and Naruto smiled a little. This sounded like it might be fun, since he was used to hearing people yell at him for his faults he could take it... and there were some things he wanted to get off his chest when it came to Tsubaki. The two sat on the floor in the lotus position and stared at each other. Tsubaki decided to start things off with the first things that came to her mind.
"You hate riding planes, your battle crazy, and you eat a lot." Tsubaki started with a small blush, and for a brief moment Naruto felf a pang of anger. Thankfully he was able to wipe it out and thought of his own responce.
"You keep using my deodorant, you use up all the hot water for your baths, and you never let me help you out with the chores." Naruto listed of his first set of complaints, and it was not like Tsubaki could deny them. She did use his deodorant more than her own, and she loved taking nice long baths or showers. The chores thing was just because she loved to clean and cook. It was sort of a hobby for her, and she knew Naruto would get it done in a minute if he used his clones.
"Your obsessed with ramen, you would sleep all day if given the chance, and you go with Death Sythe to a Hostess Club whenever he invites you." Tsubaki said a little more harshly than she had intended, but was a point. Spirit would drag Naruto to tons of places like strip clubs and hostess clubs when they both had free time. It annoyed Naruto as well, but if he didn't go with the man he would pretend to throw a hissy fit.
"Your a closet pervert, and you aren't honest with how you feel about things." Naruto said a bit louder, but forced himself to calm down again. Getting angry at the truth would do him no good, and this was training so it could be to try and mess them up.
"You can't take a hint, and you are completely ignorant of when a girl is trying to get you to sleep with her, and you are to good looking for your own good!" Tsubaki said, before she let out a squeak and blushed. Naruto tilted his head and wondered what girl wanted him to sleep with her. Blair was the first obvious choice, but she made it obvious. Twisty just had a childish crush on him, so who else would want to sleep with him.
"You... I can't think of anything else." Naruto admitted, and Stein blinked. He could sense no change in their souls, when they should be feeling the affected of the candles and get pissed at each other. Then they would either make up, or would never be able to work together again.
"Neither can I." Tsubaki admitted, and while she felt annoyed for some reason she was a very passive person when it came to her anger. Not much really bothered her as a person, but she just needed to get all that off her plentiful chest. Now that she had cleared her mind she felt so much better, and even a bit closer to Naruto.
"Then I guess you two can go now. Oh, and Naruto, if have you thought about my offer?" Stein asked, and Naruto paled a little.
"The answer is still no, you can't cut me open to find out how chakra works. Even if you did the chakra network is invisible to the naked eye." Naruto said as he ran out of the room with his partner. He was not going to spend any longer around Stein then he needed to, but that may be because he reminded him a bit to much of Kabuto. Once they had escaped the school building the two started walking towards the one place they would hopefully be safe from annoyances.
The apartment.
To bad for them they weren't the only people that had decided to go to the apartment, because when they got there they both twitched in anger when the saw Black Star and some unknown boy sitting on the couch eating... Naruto's leftover ramen!
"YOU FUCKING BASTARD!" Naruto yelled as he jumped from the doorway and kicked Black Star in the face hard enough he was going to have to change his name from Black Star to Black Eye.
"I thought you wouldn't mind!" Black Star yelled in panic for a brief moment when he felt the touch of true death touch his soul. Right now he would rather fight Lord Death than be near Naruto, and that was saying something.
"OUT! NOW!" Naruto yelled as he grabbed Black Star by the back of the pants and literally threw him out of his and Tsubaki's apartment. Naruto felt the soul of the boy that left, and learned that the kid was a weapon. In his anger though he didn't care that Black Star had found a partner, just that the little bastard had eaten his ramen!
'Black Star is so dead the next time Naruto catches him.' Tsubaki thought as she looked at the empty container of ramen. That was Naruto's own homemade ramen, and he had been saving it for later. Now that it is gone... she actually shuddered just thinking about how hard he was going to beat up Black Star and the kid with him. She then felt Naruto's hand on her arm before he pulled her into a close hug.
"You. Me. Stress relief. Now." Naruto said with an annoyed growl, and Tsubaki blushed but smiled inwardly. Naruto may be angry at Black Star, but she was happy with the blue haired kid. Make out sessions with annoyed Naruto were longer, and much less hesitant. He would dominate her mouth with his, and that was what she enjoyed when it came to kissing.
On a side note, they had never gone farther than kissing.
'Thank you Black Star.' Tsubaki thought as the two of them fell on the couch with her laying on top of him, still locked in a passionate make out session that would end with Tsubaki happy and Naruto calmed down.
- Next Day -
"I. Fucking. Hate. Planes!" Naruto growled out as he, Tsubaki, as well as Maka and Soul got on the plane to London. Soul looked at Naruto with a raised eyebrow, but didn't comment on it. Maka sent him a questioning look as she took a seat next to Tsubaki, who sat next to Naruto.
"Why do you hate airplanes?" Maka couldn't help but ask, and as if by godly power four babies started crying at the same time. Then as if struck by extreme bad luck only Naruto's chair was being kicked from behind by the only pre-teen on the flight.
"Naruto has bad luck with seating... and babies it seems." Tsubaki answered, and Naruto's response was to glare at nothing. Why the hell was his seat the only one getting kicked on this whole plane?
"It can't be that bad." Maka commented, before five more babies started to cry. The look Naruto was sending Maka right now was pure murder, and the girl turned her head away from Naruto. She couldn't have feel that she was the cause of the other crying babies for some strange reason.
"Never say something isn't that bad, because Murphy will screw with you just to prove you wrong." Naruto commented to Maka harshly, and Soul grinned a little at how his partner was being told off. Ever since they had to list what the others faults were there had been a lot of tension between the two of them. Unlike Tsubaki, Maka was driven by her temper so she had not reacted as well.
Naruto made to prove a point by switching seats with Tsubaki, and then he looked at Maka and said one sentence.
"It can't be that bad." Naruto said, and the kicking behind Tsubaki stopped, before moving over to kick his seat again. It was like he had never left his seat in the first place, and Maka understood his point. When you say something isn't bad, it usually gets worse.
"I... see? Anyway, why is Lord Death sending the two of you with us again?" Maka asked, and Naruto pointed at Soul.
"You two proved that you aren't ready for combat where the conditions change without notice. Me and Tsubaki-" Naruto started before he was interupted by Tsubaki.
"Tsubaki and I." She pointed out his grammer mistake, and he poked her in the ribs without looking. She squeaked and twitched with her hand on her side.
She HATED her ticklish ribs!
"Me and Tsubaki are just here to make sure that you two don't get in over your heads again. Over than that you two will be doing all the work." Naruto said in a lazy tone, and to be honest he and Tsubaki always got the harder assignments so going on an easy one would be kinda fun.
In the last few weeks alone they had fallen off a plane, switched bodies, fought a witch, invaded a dead city, defeated seven powerful Kishin-Eggs, found a person on the verge of becoming a Kishin, fought them, destroyed the wrecked remained of the city and replaced it with flowers, released thousands or millions of souls, and Tsubaki fought her brother. They were the team that did the hardest work in the least amount of time off work.
"You know... if you would sing I bet the plane ride would be shorter." Maka said with a small blush on her face, and Naruto gave her a look that told her he wasn't buying it. They had heard him the first time because he let them, but they weren't going to get lucky a second time.
"... It might make the babies stop crying?" Soul tried a different tactic, and he saw Naruto's eye twitch. He knew he had him when Naruto stopped moving altogether and entered a meditating position.
The whole plane listened to his singing, and like Soul had said the babies had shut up. Even while singing anime tears rolled down Naruto's cheeks at the fact this might actually be a peaceful plane ride!
- London Bridge 9 Hours Later -
"Are you sure you two aren't cold?" Maka asked when she saw Naruto and Tsubaki only wearing their normal clothes, even though it was snowing around them. If anything Naruto had taken off his T-shirt in favor of a sleeveless shirt.
"In the cold you don't want to be weighted down to much if you are going fight." Naruto said in a bored tone, and Tsubaki nodded. She wasn't like Naruto where she would wear less clothes in the cold, but she would stick to her normal clothes at least. Ninja clothes were made to stay be light and stay warm.
"Three souls incoming." Maka said as she looked towards the end of he bridge, and Naruto blicked when he realized who two of the figures were. The only one he didn't know about was the guy wearing the prison clothes with the strange eye.
"Sounga and Margaret." Naruto growled out, before he looked at Tsubaki and she nodded. Transforming she landed into his hands, with the weapon she took the shape of being her Current Staff. They were standing above a large river, so being able to control water would be a huge advantage.
"Naruto-kun! HI!" Margaret yelled, and she started to run forward as Naruto noticed her new leg replacing the one that he had cut off. The leg itself was made out of metal, and it was painted with tons of red hearts on it. Sounga reached out anjd grabbed her partners wrist to keep her from going any further.
"Idiot, did you forget this guy is the reason you are missing a leg?" Sounga said with an eye twitch, and Margaret placed a finger on her bottom lip in thought. The cute obsessed girl then looked at the group of Meisters and Weapon with a pout on her face.
"Bad Naruto-kun, just for that when I rape you I am going to cut off your legs first." Margaret said, and Soul looked at Naruto with a raised eyebrow.
"You know these psychos?" Soul asked, and Naruto frowned with a very serious look on his face.
"Yeah, and stay away from them. These two are just as strong as Old Man Death if they wanted to be, and they may be weakened but they would destroy the two of you." Naruto said with narrowed eyes, and he could feel Tsubaki growling in her weapon form. This bitch was still trying to have Naruto's children! Her madness was insane!
"Then leave the prison boy to us." Soul said with a pale look on his face, and Narujto shook his head.
"No! You two have to run away NOW!" Naruto said before he kicked out with his left leg and hit the prisoner in th stomach. The tall male was launched away, and Naruto looked at the man's soul with narrowed eyes.
"Sorry about this, but as a free man I got to repay my debts. Ya look like a cool dude, but you're wanted dead." The man said, and Naruto saw Sounga transform into her weapon form behind him. He grinned slightly when he noticed that she wasn't at full power either, while he and Tsubaki were stronger than before.
'This man... his soul is that of a witches, and it has a bunch of other things mixed in.' Maka thought as she nodded to Soul, and he tranformed as well.
"Nightmare Resonance: Demon Shadow Stab!" Margaret yelled just as Maka dropped Soul to the ground with her hands burnt. She was to shocked at not being able to hold Soul that she missed the shadow covered blade about to cut her head off. She was lucky when the snow around her turned into water and blasted Margaret away from her.
"Tsubaki, Gloves of Fire mode. No holding back." Naruto said as he stopped moving altogether and she changed shape into boxing gloves around his hands. The gloves she had become lit on fire, yet didn't burn Naruto. Naruto closed his eyes for a brief moment as orange markings appeared around his eyes, and the gloves on his hands started to change shape.
When they were done the new form took the shape of the armor that knights wore on their arms. Both of Naruto's arms were completely covered in red armor, while the gauntlets of his armor had black flame patterns on them. Black spikes came out of his shoulder armor, and when he opened his eyes they had changed shape and color to look like Toads eyes.
"If Naruto can do this, I can to." Maka whispered as she forced herself to pick up Soul, while ignoring the burning sensation her hands were feeling.
"You two got guts, I will tell you that. I guess I don't have to hold back either. I am Free, nice to eat you." The man known as Free said before he started to transform into the shape of a werewolf, and his soul became more wolf-like as well.
"Maka, handle the wolf. I got Margaret." Naruto said before the air around them started to heat up.
"Sage Recycle Rate up to 94 percent with a 6 percent waste amount." Tsubaki told Naruto, and he could see the image of her in the metal of the armor. Like himself she also sporting Sage Markings on her eyes, and he grinned.
-Insert Song- Crush - by Pendulum -
"We have never used this form before, so lets find out what we can do!" Naruto said as he punched his armored fists together and they lit up in bright blue flames. Running forward he passed by the smaller threat and went right towards the mass killers.
"Us right off the back... Fine! Come on then Uzumaki Naruto!" Sounga yelled from her blade form, and Margaret raised her to block a flaming fist aimed at her heart. The flames had no effect on the blade, but Margaret blinked from how bright they were.
"Fuck you!" Naruto yelled as he punched Margaret in the face with his other fist and sent her flying with a loud cracking noise showing he had broken her jaw. He chased after her before she could even touch the ground and got within her guard to punch her in the gut, and as she coughed up blood Naruto punched her in the shoulder.
While running he hopped in the air and kicked her in the chin, and with his Sage Strength she went flying into the sky. Pointing his hands at the ground he bent his knees and jumped up high enough to smash his head into her stomach, and before she could react to anything passed the pain Naruto spun around in the air and grabbed her metal leg with his fire coated fist and threw her at the ground.
He wasn't fucking around this time.
Pointing his hands to the sky fire propelled him at the ground faster, and he pointed both his feet at Margaret so that when they hit the ground he would smash her guts open.
"Shadow Resonance: Demonic Burial!" Mararet yelled in panic, and her whole body exploded into small black colored versions on herself just as she hit the ground. The tiny shadow Margarets started to jump together and reformed into the shape of an uninjured Margaret.
"... You couldn't do that before." Naruto pointed out with narrowed eyes, and Margaret pointed Sounga at him with a sick grin. Even thought her clothes had already started to get ruined from coming in contact with the blue flames so much.
"I learned some tricks from the Snake Lady that replaced my leg." Margaret stated, before she swung her blade at Naruto. He ducked under her, before punching her in the nose hard enough so that it snapped and tilted towards the right. Blood streamed over her lips and chin as tears automatically gathered at her eyes.
'This world had an Orochimaru too!?' Naruto thought in shock, before his eyes narrowed and he looked out of the side of his eye and saw Maka about to fall off the bridge with Free and Soul. His distraction almost cost him, but he raised his forearm up just in time to redirect a strike that was aimed to cut him through the head.
Kicking Margaret away from him, he ran over to Maka and Soul just as they started to fall off the bridge.
"Tsubaki, Wind Fan!" Naruto yelled as the falmes on his hands died down, and Tsubaki glowed red before turning into the Senjutsu version of her Wind Fan. Now she took the form of a giant fan much bigger than the ones Temari of the Desert had used, and the fan itself was colored red with a black flame pattern on it.
Naruto hopped up onto the fan and flew down to the two falling teens, while ignoring the falling wolfman. Catching the two of them, the fan started to float in mid-air before he placed his hand on Tsubaki and started to control where she was flying.
Going up back to the bridge Naruto dumped Maka and Soul off of the fan, before he noticed that Margaret and Sounga had vanished again. Their souls were not even in his sensing range anymore, so he sighed and released Sage Mode. Tsubaki turned back to her normal Wind Fan mode, before glowing blue and becoming normal Tsubaki again.
'Damnit, they got away again.' Naruto thought, before he remembered what they had said.
Now he was more concerned about who this 'Snake Lady' was.
Chapter End.
Margaret and Sounga will be kinda like Naruto and Tsubaki's personal villians. They will almost always appear just to make Naruto's life harder, and they didn't put up as much of a fight this time because they were still weakened. To weakened to use their stronger attacks.
