I could probably think of soemthing to maybe keep it going or have a sequal... but its up to you guys. i wont promise that my new ideas might kill this story for you! but i suppose you could jsut read this or i uno i jsut confused myself! anyways, here is chapter 5 and final of Rokuko's adventure :) now how about some birthday reviews ;p
Disclaimer; I do not own characters or settings of the Naruto series.
Claimer; I do however own Rokuko and the change of events in the Naruto world. I also own the 'legend' of the demon and her father like mentionings.
Bold means my character is speaking, it sorta explains why throughout the story. eg/ "speech."
Italics are thoughts, this is a third person story, the first one I have written! Very strange to write!
Underline is the Kyuubi talking, sometimes he has no "speech" but that is because he is just talking to himself
"Normal speaking."
A low growling could be heard, water rippled around the unconscious body. The fox stared down at the pale girl with black hair. Corset and shorts. Rokuko, what did you do? Why are you in here? The orange fox laid there, his head next to the small girl. It's been days, why aren't you awake yet? He growled once again, pushing her slightly with his nose. Nothing happened. Stupid girl, I told you to watch yourself, though I can't say I'm not glad to live. I can't die until I at least get out of this twerp. The nine tailed fox sighed, being very annoyed.
The pink haired girl walked into the hospital room, doing her rounds of the patients, checking once mare before heading home to bed. It was almost 2 in the morning. Her heart sank as she saw the blond boy, with his head laying back in a slumber. Poor Naruto, he's been here for almost a week. The girl's heart beat still hasn't returned. The girl sighed, pulling an extra blanket out of the drawer, laying it over the poor boy.
"Oh, Naruto... She's not coming back."
After looking over the cold body of the small girl she took her leave. It's hard to believe that was the thing Konoha has kept prisoner for decades. How she would have lost Naruto without that apparent demon. After a few minutes the boy sprung awake. He hasn't been able to sleep soundly since that night.
"Come on Rokoku... Wake up."
Naruto frowned at the lifeless girl. Tsunade said there was nothing she could do, that the girl was gone. But, Naruto refused to let them erase the body. She survived her head being bitten off, she can survive whatever she had just done for him! He wasn't going to give up on her. Rokuko, I believe in you, please, wake up... The boy sat there, dark bags under his eyes. The night slowly moving on.
Two days later, Naruto returns after finally being forced to go eat. This was the last night before Tsunade is ordering them to remove the body. Naruto tired to sleep in his own bed, but he couldn't even lay still. He walked in, Sasuke was there. Why would he be here? He better not hurt her!
"Sasuke, what are you doing?"
"As much as I wanted to avenge my own clan, I'm glad she got rid of Madara, when we were fighting him I realized. I needed to get stronger. I was to naive, I would be dead with out her, and you, you would be dead without her."
Naruto bowed his head. I owe this girl my life, I won't give up on her. She's, she's something different.
"Naruto, do you love this girl?"
The blond looked up, shocked the Uchiha would even suggest that. A light blush covered his cheeks.
"N-No, she just... saved my life. That's all."
The coal eyed boy continued to stare down at the lifeless form. Poor Naruto, first Sakura, who can't return his feelings, than the only other girl who can't make him forget her gives her life to save him. Sasuke sighed and turned to walk out of the room, Naruto moved to stroke the girl's hair out of her face. Sasuke looked back, actually feeling bad for the blond. The raven haired boy left, his head bowed. Naruto continued to stand there watching the girl, just wishing she would wake up. She ranted on and on about being immortal, about how she was going to parade Madara's head on a shit stick..
"What are you doing Rokuko? Wake up already. This isn't funny anymore."
The blond sighed, falling to the chair beside the bed.
Kakashi and Tsunade walked in, nobody was happy these past days. It was hard to be happy when the peppy, optimistic guy who always had the smile on his face, always telling people to never give up. The two walked up. Tsunade walked up, checking the girl's stats. Nothing, still. I can't just keep her here. I don't know how were going to get her out with Naruto here. She stepped back.
"Naruto..."
"Don't try it old lady Tsunade. I'm not giving up. She's immortal, she'll snap out of it soon enough."
Kakashi tried.
"Naruto, I don't think she was meant to come back."
"You're lying. She is too stubborn to die."
"What the ..."
The two turned to the blonde who was staring strangely at the girl. The two boys looked down. The pale skin of the small girl began to tear and char. Blood began to soak through the blankets. Tsunade moved the blankets, her whole body was beginning to wound and burn. They could smell the burning flesh.
"Tsunade! Whats happening?"
"I'd love to know as well!"
The blonde put her hand over, the girl still had no pulse. Maybe this was a natural body remover? Like the ANBUs.
"Heal her! Please, just try!"
Tsunade didn't know what to do, so she at least tried for the poor boy. Starting with the girl's legs. The green light morphed around the medic's hands. The burn marks she was focusing began to disappear. As soon as she moved her hand, a different type of wound would take it's place. The women was baffled. She tried her arm, healing a tear up along the bicep area. As soon it was healed and her hand was away, a burn took its place, and a tear went across horizontally. What the hell is going on! Her whole body is being torn and burned! The young boy began to worry when the wounds started to spread across her face faster as well, a tear across her cheek, over her eye began to burn, blood just pooled out of the corner of her mouth. bruises were everywhere.
"Rokuko! Heal her!"
The Hokage was going to just give up and see what happens but the tears in the blue eyes tore at her heart. Reminding her of her lover Dan. The blood everywhere, it was just the same. She began to heal with both her hands, two different areas, working on the most vital areas. Chunks of flesh began to disappear, at that point, Tsunade was losing it. Kakashi stood just dumbfounded on what was happening, trying to calm Naruto down. Tsunade began to work on the chunks of flesh missing. This is just not real. I have never seen anything like this. She's bleeding and wounds but yet she still has no pulse!
"Damn it demon! What are you doing?"
The Hokage shouted, trying to quicken the healing process.
After multiple hours, the Hokage was panting, sweat on her forehead. She stopped, the wounds seemed to be coming faster than she could heal them now. Naruto, not caring about the blood, had a hold of the torn apart girl that seemed to be just being eaten and torn away as she laid there, accusingly dead.
"Come on Rokuko."
Kakashi had left hours before, having a mission to complete. The Hokage left, trying to look up anything that could somewhat explain what was happening to the small demon. Naruto just sat there, staring at the almost unrecognizable face, his hand grasping tightly to the wet hand. Naruto began to feeling a throbbing sensation in his hand. He looked down to see the veins and artery's that were visible pulsing. He put his hand to her neck. The same slow pulse was felt there as well. I knew it! He jumped up, a look of worry still on his face, he noticed the wound stopped appearing and taking flesh off. Some of the girl was beginning to steam. Tissue, muscle and flesh slowly began to bubble back on the girl. The scarred skin took place, and she began to look like the normal, well, half normal girl she used to be. Her chest began to rise and fall as if she was breathing.
"Rokuko? Rokuko can you hear me! Rokuko!"
The girl's eyebrows shifted inward, giving her an annoyed look as her lip moved up in a scowl.
"Shut up, my head is throbbing!"
"I knew you would come back!"
The girl growled, shifting around to sit up. Naruto wrapped his arm around her helping, her flesh was burning.
"What happened? You've been out for over a week!"
"Really? Only a week? Huh, I swear I was down there for about a year."
"Down where?"
The girl shrugged looking over the blond in front of her with a smile. It worked. I wonder how the Kyuubi is doing? The girl stretched and bent her limbs, causing sickening pops and cracks.
The tailed beast laid there, getting really impatient at the body that slumbered in his cage. Stupid girl, I'm going to eat you if you do not wake soon. He growled loudly, causing the water to ripple, the sewers to shake. The girl laying in the water began to shift and twitch. Hehehe, it's about time useless demon.
"Now listen here pup, you'd be dead without me."
The fox chuckled, standing up to stretch his legs.
"Why are you in here girl? People don't come in my cage."
"I thought you could use some company Kyuubi, you seem to be scared of the dark."
The girl winked, standing up and stretching. The fox let out a howling laugh.
"I'm stuck inside this boy with you?"
"It's like the good ol' days, except, it's different!"
The fox growled narrowing his blood red eyes at the small figure. The girl put her palm on his nose, patting it.
"It's nice to be with you too Kyuubi."
"What happened, Rokuko?"
"It's not totally true that I cannot die, when I die, I just go back to Hell. Depending on how I get killed depends on how rough my father is sending me back. Let's just say, he wasn't happy."
"What are you talking about?"
Naruto sat there, staring at the girl, who sat up in the blood covered bed. His face was masked with confusion and interest as the girl somewhat explained herself.
"I sealed my own soul inside of you, that way, as long as my soul is in you, you cannot die. Of course, you won't have to go through the same punishment I do, which for you is good. You're tough, but defiantly not that tough. Well, shoving my soul in you is what killed me, as I die, I go back to Hell. Trying to explain to my father what happened didn't go well. I had to find my own way to this world if I wanted to once again see you. It was real nice of my father, sure he created a million extra demon dogs to guard the exit, but the fact he let me have a chance to go, showed he cared." The girl cackled at the thought of her father caring. "Well, after I replaced my soul, I went through the tunnel. Those dogs are merciless. I'm sorry I worried you."
The girl half smiled, as she chuckled lightly. She stared into the blue eyes. Fucking humans, disgusting species. Fucking demons who mistake love for lust. He haad to give me some human heart. Shit bag. The boy jumped up, wrapping his arms around the small girl.
"Thank you so much Rokuko! You sacrificed yourself for me. I am forever grateful."
"Forever indeed, but hey, you have eternity to make it up to me!" She moved her mouth to his ear. "You can start by taking off that stupid orange thing and showing me how much of a man you really are."
She whispered in his ear, her one hand on his face, the other, un-zipping his jacket. He was frozen, trying to calm himself, but unable to do so. His face was tomato red. The girl had her hand on his waist band when the door opened up. A tall, blond girl walked in. The Hokage stared in disbelief at the scene in front of her. Naruto stood his hand rubbing the back of his neck, his face completely red, his jacket opened. The girl sat there, looking completely healed and a sadistic grin on her face. It was only a couple hours since she left.
"What the hell is going on?"
"I went to Hell, then came back."
"But, the wounds covering your body, having no pulse for days?"
"Well, no longer having my soul, I had to use my heart to get to hell, Being as amazing as I am, I can split myself apart between my soul and heart, causing death but momentarily. But using my heart to travel is what causes the wounds I receive there, to be received here. But, it's fine now, I have a new soul, and I made my way back. Hell hounds, they are never satisfied with one bite."
The women just blinked, so lost, she shook her head and walked over to the girl. Naruto did up his jacket and tried to reposition his clothes and self. Tsunade put her hand over the girl's head, the demon just went crossed eyed, looking up at the hand.
"Your vitals and everything are back to normal. You seem to be perfectly fine. How did you lose your soul?"
"It's how I saved loud-mouth over there. I sealed it in him with the Kyuubi, my healing is much faster then the pup, and can heal life threatening wounds, even if they've been dead for 2 hours. But, really that depends how old my soul is." The girl shrugged her shoulders. "It's a long explanation of useless shit. Yadda, yadda, Naruto is immortal well, until he dies once, then my soul will vanish. I doubt he has the heart to eat someone so..."
The boy just widen his eyes at the female. The older girl just shook her head.
"I can't tell you how thankful I am for what you have done for this village and Naruto. You really are a great person."
"Say that again and I'll have to kill you."
The Hokage chuckled shaking her head.
"Alright, well, you can leave at anytime, it's late so you can stay the night if you want."
"HA! The fact I'm in a hospital is just ridiculous."
"OH! Come with me! I have a surprise!"
Naruto grabbed the small girl's wrist, dragging her out of the hospital room. The ran through the dark hallways and outside. He lead her to the prison area. She raised an eyebrow.
They stood at the doors of her old prison. The ANBU member opened the door, letting the couple inside. They walked in and Naruto snapped his fingers the lights went on, showing a head on a platform beside a stick.
"I knew you would wake up, so I waited so you could to the honours."
"Naruto, I think I could love you."
The girl stared at the Uchiha's head that sat there. She walked up, picking it up to look at it closer. She stroked the old man's face, purring.
"Uchiha Madara. You once said you were stronger then the devil himself. You doomed your own fate speaking of him so loosely. Now, like I promised you, I will have your head shit bags!"
With that she slammed the head down on the spike, going through his eye. She laughed manically as she saw the eye hang there. The laughter put chills down Naruto's spine, a little afraid of the female. She walked back, a smile so gratifying Naruto couldn't help but smile back. She went to walk away but he grabbed her arm and turned her around. Wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Rokuko. I love you too."
He bent down locking his lips to her, moving his one hand to the back of her head to bend it up. The girl stood there, somehow dumbfounded on what was happening. But, the hungry feeling stirred in the pit of her stomach and a little lower, she purred. Her hand going to his hair, grabbing it fiercely. The other, grabbing his jacket pulling him closer. She broke apart moving to his ear.
"Take me home."
At the command Naruto flickered the two to his room. Rokuko finally showed him what a real demon could do. Naruto showing her what a real man he was.
