A/N: A shorter chapter today, as an apology for taking so long.

Chapter two.

18 months ago

Naruko smiled as she walked into a clearing inside the training grounds, she was witness to three people and a dog surrounding her clone. They had not yet noticed her, but her hearing caught what they were saying none the less.

Sakura growled "Who the fuck are you, and what have you done with Naruko?"

Her clone smiled "What are you talking about? I am-"

"No, you aren't" Kiba said "Akimaru and I both notice you smell different."

Sasuke drew a Kunai "You have five seconds, before I start to carve it out of you."

Stepping out of the woods, Naruko smiled and said "Okay, you can rest now dear" As she waved, the clone dropped to the ground, while she sat down on the nearby log and smiled at them all "Well, I have to admit, I wasn't expecting to see you guys when I got back, not just yet anyway."

The four of them turned to face her, Akimaru barked and Kiba nodded "Yes, she does smell right." he looked at her and said "Okay, where did we meet?"

She smirked "The Academy, you were boasting how you were the Alpha dog until I met you head on in the sparing ring, I lost but I made you work for it. Poor Akimaru was knocked out."

They looked at each other, than Sakura said "Okay… what the fuck Naruko? Where have you been! Why leave a Clone! And HOW did you leave a Clone? That was your worse Jutsu!"

Naruko cleaned her ears, wincing as she said "Damn, I had forgotten how loud you can be Sakura." She sighed and said "This will be faster if I just show you." She stood up, walking over and whispered "Secrets Veil" as she waved her hand, showing them the attack, as well as where she had been for the last six months.

When it was over, Kiba and Akimaru both threw up, Sasuke seemed shaken, and Sakura threw her arms around Naruko and wept…

Present day..

Naruko smiled at her friends, for they had remained friends, and more, while they sat in her hotel room, looking them over and took in the changes that seemed to have come over them. Sakura seemed to have put more effort into her training, her muscles were more defined and her eyes seemed to be more green ice than anything else.

Sasuke's face was cold, impassive, but his eyes were warm when he looked at Naruko, but he too was was showing more muscle definition.

Each one of them told her about the things that had occurred, about the counsel doing their best to force Naruko into the CRA, as well as trying to stop her from becoming a Shinobi, while the Third Hokage managed to stop it for the most part.

Sasuke sighed "The Hokage has agreed to put you in the CRA when you became a Jonin, the counsel tried to get you pulled out of the Academy and put into it now, but he managed to get them to go with Jonin, since that's what they said for me."

Naruko said "They will be furious with my marrying Luce than"

Sakura grinned "Very much so."

Kiba grinned "When is our King going to show up?"

As though brought by his question, Lucifer arrived in a burst of flame, a smile on his face "Hello my darlings!" he grinned as he the three students and dog all seemed to bow before him.

He smiled and said "So, anything new coming our way?"

Naruko smirked and said "They've apparently decided that when I become a Jonin they are putting me into a breeding program, regardless of my being married dear"

Lucifer chuckled "Ahh, I see." sitting down he said "My my, what a bunch of idiots."

Naruko smiled and said "So, shall we give them their presents my love?" as she took Lucifer's hand, gently squeezing it.

"Indeed" He said, waving his hand as four boxes appeared on the nearby bed "We bring gifts for you, as well as an offer"

The three humans looked at Lucifer, than to Naruko, who stood and said "The offer is simply this, if you would like, we will make you demons."

Sasuke looked at the other two and said "We've already joined the ranks of the damned, we might as well join the hoard"

Sakura sighed and nodded "True enough, might as well. Right Dog-boy?"

Kiba huffed at this, but nodded "Right, Akimaru? What do you say?"

The dog barked in the affirmative.

=/=

The next day Naruko came to the academy, she was wearing a knee length skirt in a dark red with a pair of black shorts under them. As well as a light jacket of dark blue and soft black roses over a mesh shirt that showed her cleavage in her red bra under it.

She walked into the classroom and grinned at the others, there were many mutters and grumbles, as well as a squeak from a certain pale eyed girl, which caused the Queen of Hell to grin inwardly.

Walking up she sat down next to Sasuke and put her feet up on her desk, enjoying the annoyed looks that she got from many of the students, while Iruka-sensei said "Uzumaki-san, you are late. By a week!"

She nodded "Hai, however I already discussed it with Hokage-sama." She said, her tone chipper, as though she were merely a few minutes later rather than having vanished for a week.

Iruka frowned, but knew it was the frown of a concerned teacher for a student, not one of the angry, hate filled frowns she often got. A similar frown was on her other sensei, Mizuki. These two were the only one's in the Academy who felt as though Naruko deserved a chance, while everyone else tried to sabotage her lessons, to sabotage her chances of ever becoming a Kunoichi.

Iruka sighed, but began to hand out the test sheets, one stack of papers per student, each test was meant to test the students on a variety of subjects from history to cooking. Every skill that a Shinobi needed…

After the written tests came the practical ones. The first of which was a test of accuracy with Kunai and Shuriken. As Naruko took the tools she smirked, the Kunai and Shuriken were both unbalanced and dull she looked at the sensei responsible for the upkeep of the weapons.

Miki-Sensei was the one responsible for handing out and maintaining the equipment, she was also part of the attack on Naruko two years ago, having used her training to avoid detection by the ANBU, but Lucifer knew that happened, and so did she.

Waving her hands over the tools she had changed them from shoddy to masterwork, she smirked, these were more befitting her status as one of the Queen's of hell.
