The Engagement Party part one –
Lounging about on a great mound of pillows, quietly snacking on some dried dates and sipping some orange juice spiked with some herbal pills to help in his growing as he's shorter then he should be at his age, his day's schooling finished, Naruto rested up for his combat training.
Sure, he had only four hours of schooling followed by another two of 'observing' the council in action. His grandmother and grandfather had started him schooling in developing his mind for when he becomes King he's going to have to be more then just strong in body but in his mind as well.
"Naruto want some more?" Coquelicot offered holding a pitcher of orange juice as she sees his cup empty.
"Sure," Naruto said as held out his cup for her to refill. Around him are his personal maids and his new personal bodyguards the Killer Bees who are fiercely protective of him. They had already taste tested all of the food and drink that were being served to him. They were a gift from his grandmother as she wants him to be protected at all times, without him the royal family bloodline would end with her.
"Tomorrow is the engagement party," Kitaoji said as she's in charge of Naruto's day planner.
"You shouldn't go into the combat training today. You don't want to get hurt during the training," Nako said as her Pink Delmo training kicked in.
"She's right you need to look your best for tomorrow. You don't want to dishonor yourself by appearing with a broken arm or something broken on your face," Glycine said as she has been trying to get Naruto to act more as a nobleman would act. Like how her family acts since her grandmothers antics has caused them to fall from the high ideals of the noble bloodline of their family.
"I think having scars shows character," Cammy said as she lightly fingers the scar she received during her training on her left cheek.
"But she is right that I should look my best for the party," Nartuo said.
"Also there will be some people from the Leaf," März said looking over her folder of all the data she managed to find.
"Tell me who's coming," Naruto ask.
"The escort is besides the two girls are three girls and three boys, the adults number four. The three boys that are coming were kind of like your friends, Shikamaru Nara who comes from a family of shadow manipulators and deer herders, Kiba Inuzuka Konohagakure's Inuzuka family known for their ninja dogs and Chouji Akimichi is a member of the Akimichi clan, one of the four noble clans in Konohagakure," Marz said reading off the names of those listed of coming.
"As for the girls that are comings as two of them were in your class. The first is Sakura Haruno who you seem to have a crush on. Her main strengths are her intelligence and her hidden chakra control which just needs to be brought out. The next is Ino Yamanaka who is Sakura's friend/rival. She is talented in the way of the flower Ikebana (1) as well as mind-altering jutsu where she can control a person's body but leaves her own body a sitting duck for any attack. The last is Tenten a Genin level ninja who graduated the academy a year ahead of you, Tenten is a student of Might Guy together with two guys name Rock Lee and Neji Hyuga. Not much is known about her techniques, other than that they involve the mastery of weaponry, Tenten is an expert in the use of melee and throwing armaments and summons these special melee weapons from scrolls when needed. She also uses what may be chakra strings to control and guide the direction of her weapons. Tenten also has proved herself very capable of throwing many weapons at her opponent and using them for ranged attacks. She is considered one of the best female ninja in the village."
"I remember them," Naruto said. "Tell me about the two girls they manage to find to be engage to me."
"The first is the daughter of Teuchi the owner 'The Ichiraku Ramen Bar' the one you use to always eat at, Ayame Ichiraku, who you know well. Then there's Hinata Hyuga the eldest daughter and heiress to the Hyuga clan known for the Byakugan bloodline. She has a crush on you for a long time now but she's very shy," Marz read off the report she has on the two girls.
"Ayame and Hinata," Naruto said. "Well those two are the only ones that were nice to me while I live there. When I start the war with the Leaf I have to remember to spare those two lives."
"I'll make a note of that," Marz said as she continues on her report. "The four adults that are coming with them are Tsunade the granddaughter of the First Hokage, grandniece of the Second Hokage, and the kunoichi of the three Legendary Three Ninja, Densetsu no Sannin. Even though she is around in her fifties, her Transformation Technique it must be noted that Tsunade's henge is somewhat different from the normal henge as it does not get dispelled when she is slashed or injured, and she apparently does not have to use any effort to keep it up -- it is a permanent henge that only gets partially dispelled when she uses her Sozo Saisei, as the seal on her forehead is where she stores the chakra for her henge, making it appear as if she were still in her twenties. She has a gambling problem where she loses a lot of money and the only time she wins is when something bad is going to happen. One of her noteworthy possessions is her grandfather's amulet, a necklace that could buy up to three mountains. She also has a pet pig name Tonton."
"How interesting," Naruto said as he waves for her to continue.
"Shizune a talented medic-nin is the apprentice of Tsunade and left Konoha with her after her uncle Dan died. Shizune is quite close to Tsunade, one of the few people Tsunade will trust with absolute certainty and a fairly talented and capable ninja in her own right. Unlike Tsunade, she is level headed, practical, and a rational thinker. As a result, she is the one who tends to stress over details like Tsunade's tendency to gamble and think with her heart. Shizune also looks after Tonton, Tsunade's pet pig."
"The third member is Kurenai Yuhi a Jonin. Relatively little is known about her, other than the fact that she only became a Jonin recently. She also been chosen to be Hinata Hyuga's teacher and was appointed by Hinata's father. The last member is Asuma Sarutobi another Jonin. Not much is known about Asuma, only that he seems very laid back and is always smoking a cigarette whenever he is seen."
"Interesting choices but then again they didn't had much of a choice in choosing who was going to come since there are so few people in the Leaf that had shown me any kindness," Naruto said.
"What do you want us to do about them?" Cammy ask.
"Leave that to me," Naruto said thinking of the fun he's going to have with his former villagers.

At the Land of Snow air port –
"Well, well look at that they have the nerve of showing their faces," a Sound ninja said as she points at the group of Leaf ninjas.
The Sound ninja who is pointing is name Tayuya. She is the only kunoichi of Orochimaru's Sound Four unit. She is foul-mouthed and ill tempered, but very powerful. Her main weapon is her flute. With it, she can summon three powerful demons and control them to fight for her. Tayuya is very intelligent and can think of excellent strategies and battle tactics. She can also perform genjutsu with her flute. Her preference for sound-based, long-range combat with her flute makes her vulnerable at close-range combat. When in Level 2 cursed seal form, her hair grows longer, her skin turns dark brown, and she grows several horns on her head.
"And it looks like they manage to dig up some girls to be engages to the boy they treated like trash," Kin said giving the Leaf ninjas a smirk. "I wonder if the prince isn't just going to tear their faces off when he sees them."
"And looks like the pickings were very slim, bottom of the barrel," Zuka said.
"No it looks like it's the barrel they found," Dosu laughs. "Too bad Hana's team didn't make the cut they would have loved to see this."
"Why don't you come over here and say that in my face!" Sakura shouted at the two kunoichi's.
"You wouldn't like it if we did," the Sound nins laugh at the pink hair girl with the large forehead.
"Sakura no you can't start a fight here," Tsunade said to her as she held her back by placing her hand on the younger girls shoulder.
"Yeah you'll lose," a man name Jirobo said. He's the physically strongest member of the Sound Four and the weakest overall, according to the other members of the Sound Four. His fighting style consists mostly of basic physical strikes supplemented with the ability to use his chakra to hold the earth solid. His physical strength is unbelievable, as he can tears boulder-sized chunks of dirt out of the ground to throw, creates barriers by tearing up massive sheets of rock, and can drain chakra with his Chakra Absorption Technique. He dislikes it when Tayuya uses foul language or when she calls him "fat", and he always criticizes her when she does. When in Level 2 cursed seal form, his skin becomes red, his mohawk becomes a mane down his back, his eyes turn black, and he gains ten times his normal strength.
"Yeah looks like the Leaf has fallen in power lately," a man name Kidomaru smirks at them. He's the spider-like member of the Sound Four; he possesses four extra arms for a total of eight limbs, and has the ability to make webs. He enjoys playing with his enemies before he kills them. If his spider-like abilities aren't enough to beat his enemies, he is an excellent tactical analyzer, capable of figuring out his enemies weak points quickly and efficiently. Kidomaru uses his webs to protect the Sound Four and Orochimaru. The webs can be used both defensively and offensively. He makes his webs through a special type of liquid that is created by infusing body liquid with chakra. He can also harden this substance at will, into a golden metallic solid. He can also make the golden metallic solid from his sweat glands. This hardened material can be fabricated into body armor, kunai, or his especially deadly bow and arrow. His abilities are not kekkei genkai, but clan-related. The name of his clan is unknown. When in Level 2 cursed seal form, he becomes even more spider-like. His skin becomes darker, and he grows long, white hair. He also gains the ability to control the path of his arrows with chakra. Out of all the members of the Sound Four, Kidomaru is the only one who wears a visible Sound forehead protector, as it covers his third eye which is used in level 2 cursed seal form to improve his accuracy.
"So much for your village of being the strongest of the Hidden Villages," a young man name Sakon laughs. He is very twisted and enjoys bad-mouthing the opposition. He possesses amazing power and speed, but these are not the only things he has at his disposal. From behind, one can see what appears to be another head hanging from his back. This is his older brother, Ukon. Due to their unique kekkei genkai, Ukon is able to merge his body with Sakon's. Ukon generally stays asleep in Sakon's body unless needed in combat, effectively doubling the strength of Sakon's physical attacks. Each brother can independently activate a curse seal. In his Level 2 cursed seal form, he takes on the appearance of an ogre, with the exception of only having one horn on his left side. This gives him increased healing abilities and armor.
Ukon his bother generally stays within Sakon's body unless he's needed in combat. It is suggested that he cannot remain outside of Sakon for very long, since he cites the need to rest after a short battle apart from his brother. He seems to be more impatient than his brother, as seen when he tells Sakon to finish Kiba quickly and activate his Level 2 cursed seal when Sakon wanted to play around more. When he comes out, he effectively doubles the strength of Sakon's physical attacks. Similarly to how he lives inside Sakon's body, Ukon can use his kekkei genkai ability to enter and slowly destroy an opponent's body. Each brother can independently activate a cursed seal. In his Level 2 cursed seal form, he takes on the appearance of an ogre, with the exception of only having one horn on his right side. This gives him increased healing abilities and armor, and also allows him to remain apart from Sakon for a longer period of time.
"Well you can expect a lot from a village that gangs up on a small boy," said Kimimaro Kaguya who is the fifth member of the Sound Four, thus temporarily changing their group name to the Sound Five. The original four were forced to accept him, despite their protests, as Kimimaro's combat abilities exceeded all of their abilities combined. He was the sole survivor of the Kaguya clan who could manipulate their bodies' skeletal frame. The Kaguya clan was wiped out when they attacked the Hidden Mist Village and were slaughtered. Kimimaro was the most powerful member of this clan, so he was locked away in a cage for most of his life, only released occasionally when needed to fight other clans. He retreated from the fight with the Hidden Mist Village, which is why he is the only survivor. Kimimaro is well suited for close combat fighting, and can hold his own at a distance. Since he can regenerate and make new bones, he has an endless supply of bones he can use against his opponent. Kimimaro's only weakness is the sickness that he constantly suffers from (possibly tuberculosis, because of his bloody coughing). The sickness seems to have been recently developed, as he was once a prime candidate for Orochimaru's next host. He has a strong devotion towards Orochimaru, as Orochimaru was the only person to care for and inspire him. When in his Level 2 cursed seal form, his appearance is similar to that of a dinosaur, with dark gray skin and a long bony tail, while remaining bipedal.
While belonging to a clan that loves killing, murder, and slaughtering, as well as being the most powerful of this clan, Kimimaro is not truly violent because he never really knew the outside world. Thus, he does not know why he really fights (until he meets Orochimaru). He always wondered what really was accomplished through the fighting he knew. It may be the reason why he retreated from the final battle of his war-loving clan and the Hidden Mist Village.
"Hey don't put me in the same category as the rest of them!" Ayame shouted but when she saw Hinata biting her lips. "Or Hinata here as we're the only two girls in the entire village that treated Naruto like a person." The rest of the Leaf group, were all taken aback at what she had said about them but couldn't defend themselves because everything she had just said was true.
"Well that maybe true but your chances of getting anywhere close to him are zero," Kin smiles.
"Yeah I mean treating someone like trash without them knowing why won't put you on their good side you know," a new comer said. Turning they saw a group of ninjas from the headbands they're from the Hidden Sand Village. The one that spoke is a blonde girl with a strange hair style. A group of spectators had gathered around the scene.
"Why bother in showing your faces at all?" a man with a cloth that covers half of his face asked.
"You should all go back to your village now," a boy said carrying a puppet on his back said. "He just might use all of you for target practices."
"Naruto isn't that blood trusty!" Ayame snaps but looks at the people are her in her group. "Well… not against me or Hinata that is."
"Hey!" the younger members of the Leaf group yelled at her.
"Well think about it. Who has a better chance of living through this? Me and Hinata or you guys?" Ayame ask them.
They were interrupted by the most horrifying sound they had ever heard;
"WOH, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO!!!!!!!!!!"
The few remaining spectators fled the scene at high speed at the sound of that high, haunting, cackling that made one flash back to the scariest, most soul-destroying nightmares of your life. Then, bouncing into view came the source of that most terrible of all sounds; and bouncing was a most apt description.
Clad in an incredibly revealing leather thong bikini came a tall, immensely voluptuous, pale-skinned woman. Nestled in between her full, round tits was a skull necklace that quivered with each of her steps. Shaking her wavy, black hair out of her eyes and simultaneously shaking her dark purple cloak to more fully expose her bountiful figure she strutted into a position directly in front of the Leaf ninjas. Not taking her eyes off of Tsunade who caught her eye she suddenly spoke; "Temari? Just who is this fool who thinks she can match Naga the White Serpent? Her figure has its points and someone of her age using a jutsu to remain how she has look when she was in her prime, but of course it doesn't come near the perfection of my own!! WOH, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO, HO!!!" Everyone cringed at this, but Tsunade stood strong even in the teeth of it.
"Naga the White Serpent the jutsu mistress of the Sand," Tsunade said informing the ones who didn't know who the woman is as she glares at the younger woman. "I heard a lot about you."
"Yes and I of you as well, like your real age is fifty-two and the only thing keeping you looking that young is the jutsu you used on yourself," Naga smiled smugly as the older woman glared at her.
"Are you trying to get Naruto to fall for you? I never thought of you as a cradle robber," Tsunade said back to her giving her a smirk.
Naga glared at the older woman, "No! Of course not, my younger sister is going to be the one who's going to be engaged to him."
Stepping out from behind her older sister a young girl showed herself to them. She's a bit shorter even than Temari is, but definitely had a more curvaceous body that showed she's on her way of being a knockout like her older sister. She wore an annoyingly cute white traveling outfit complete with cape and pink trim. Little ornaments with star designs completed the look. Beneath her short-cut black hair her blue eyes seemed almost as crazily determined as her older sister. (2)
"How dare you show yourself after what you have done to him!" the young girl shouted. "For love and justice I will punish you!"
The Leaf and the people who had struck around to watch sweatdropped. "Amelia please don't do that," her older sister said as she wish she wouldn't go around spouting about justice whenever she gets a chance to.
"Fired with a burning love of peace and justice I'll scour the land of evil!! Let all who fear the light of the law flee before me like cockroaches, but I will crush them with the iron boot of right despite their flight!!!" Amelia's blue eyes seemed to glow with the fire of her dedication as she spoke, arms and fingers moving and pointing at the correct times for the biggest emotional impact.
"Tsunade how powerful is she?" Shizune ask her teacher.
"Her sister is powerful enough to give me a hard fight let alone me beating her without suffering from heavy injuries. If Amelia is anything like Naga she'll be able to kick the kid's butts around easily," Tsunade whispers to her.
"As much as I like to see some Leaf butts being kick, you can't go and start a fight here," a woman said as she steps in front of the group. She's dressed in a form fitting white bodysuit that clung to every curve of her body. The white suit had a zipper running up the front that was currently pulled about half way up, leaving the suit jutting wide open at her cleavage, her impressive E-Cup breasts thrusting out of the open material, pushed up by a lacy white brassiere. Most of the guys couldn't help but stare at her expose chest making the women glare at them and jab them to stop looking, with some girlfriends and wives who reminded their men with large blunt objects.
Two other women stood next to the woman who spoke out. The one on her left side is much shorter then the other woman as she looks a lot younger because of her height. She was a beautiful doll, less than five feet tall, with large breasts, a slim waist, gorgeous hips, all in proportion to her tiny size. Her almond-shaped eyes were big, and so dark as to be almost black. Her doll-like face was framed by straight hair, black, but with a reddish cast, parted in the middle, reaching to the middle of her round buttocks. She has a long black cloak wrapped around her body.
And the one on the right is a redhead with short hair, she is sleek, muscled, powerful looking and stands over eight feet tall. Most men would have to look up to meet her eyes. That is if they can move passed her chest that is. Her legs were of a special interest; they were the firm and taut legs of a fitness model or female track star. And she has the biggest burst which any of the ninjas even with someone like Tsunade around had ever seen with the woman's H-cup size chest seemingly ready to burst out of her top of her short gold color dress she wore.
"Who are you two?" Zuka ask as he stares at her chest.
"My name is Captain Kim Possible and I'm the captain of the airship you guys are taking. Any of you fight and you'll be walking," Kim said as she smirks at the group of Eastern Ninjas. "Now stop this and get your things my ship is taking off in five minutes if your late I'm leaving you behind." With that she left for her ship leaving the shorter woman facing the group of ninjas.
"As for me, I'm Suraya Unata and my tall friend next to me is Maya Yugina. We're two of the Gold Delmo's who attacked the Leaf village as she was saving our Prince from them. We'll be acting as examiners for this trip. We'll be watching you all for anything so make sure you all be on your best behavior or… We'll have to make sure your group will be going back home," she said as she grins at the Leaf ninjas adults who remember the damage she down to their village. She kept that grin on her face as she turns and walks off for the airship.
"Yeah make sure you don't cause trouble on this trip or you'll be thrown out of the ship. If you do," Maya chuckles as she turns and follows her small friend.
"Luckily for you we don't have time for you punishment today!" Amelia said as she grabs her bags as run after the captain. The rest of the Sand Ninjas followed.
"While this is your only chance of turning back now," Kin said to the Leaf Ninjas giving them a smirk as she grabs her bags.
"You should go back and prepare for the war with Metal," Kimimaro said to them as his group started walking after their captain. "You don't have a chance of getting Prince Naruto to back down in a war that he wants with your village. Since your village went through all of the trouble of making sure he would hate your village with every fiber of his being."
Asuma took a deep puff of his cigarette as he turns to the team leader, "What do you want to do?"
"We can't turn back and give up without trying," Tsunade as she grabs her things and started walking. The others looked at each other and soon followed, they're the only hope left for their village now.

In Metal –
In a room in the royal palace that was until a few weeks ago was empty a young man slept on the bed. He could hear the soft breathing of the girls, one on either side. As his eyes grew accustomed to the darkness, he saw it wasn't totally dark, just the normal darkness of a bedroom at night. Lifting his head, he could see from the lighted clock on the table that the time was nearly midnight. As he put his head down again, Février, curled up with her back to him, moved slightly as she slept. On his other side, Xiayu sighed softly, her arm moving across his chest as she cuddled against his back. He fell back asleep with the two girls on either side of him.
In his room the Killer Bees slept as older Delmo palace guards stood watch outside his door. If anything enters the room it wouldn't be able to enter without waking up one of the Killer Bees who are all train to be able to sense stealth jutsu's and that beside the two Bees currently sleeping with their Prince formed a circle around his bed as they slept on the floor on mats. Santamu's pet monkey was also in the room and would start shouting if anything would enter the room undetected by the humans inside the room. The Killer Bees took turns in sleeping in bed with him as they knew they had to go slowly as Naruto their prince still isn't use to people being kind to him.
Waking up again he turn to look at the clock and saw that it was about time to get up. Pulling himself free from the two girls sleeping with him, Naruto headed for the bathroom careful not to wake any of the girls sleeping on the floor. The first thing he did was check himself out in the full length mirror as he washes his face. He was a little taller now, more muscular, not so much that it would stand out, but his shoulders and chest were broader and his arms and legs more muscular. He had gotten taller as the transformation had some side effects as in making him the height he's suppose to be at his age along with other things.
Briefly, he touched his chest, his shoulders, his biceps, feeling how hard his muscles are now. Before he got the reward from the fox, he was in pretty good shape from his ninja training, but now his body was like steel. His hair was still blonde, but with a little wave to it now. Staring at his face in the mirror, he could see that while he was bigger and handsomer as most of the women keep on telling him, he was still recognizable as Naruto Delmo, but with a more confident manner, a firmer jaw, a commanding look in his eyes. And the biggest change of all is that his ears have been replaced by a pair of fox ears on his head, and his nails are more like claws then they were before. As he has become a half demon now with the side effects of the unsealing of the fox demon inside of him and sending it back to the demon world, transforming him into a half demon. He's now stronger and more powerful then he was before when he was still fully human. And yet he still feels so empty inside whenever he has time to sit by himself and think about where his life is going…
"Morning master," Cammy said as she walks up behind him wrapping her arms around him.
"Morning Cammy," Naruto said as he stares at her reflection in the mirror, she's giving him a soft smile as she hugs herself to her back.
"You know we're supposed to be with you no matter where you go," Cammy said. "We are trained to protect you at all times your too important to us."
"Yes I know. I'm the only heir for the throne of Metal and without me this land would erupt into a civil war over the crown," Naruto said bitterly earning him a gasp from Cammy.
"Don't say that! We don't see you like that," Cammy cried out waking the other Killer Bees up from their slumber as Cammy left the bathroom door wide open.
"Forget it. I already know what you think of me and see me as. I'm just someone to make sure that this Land isn't destroyed in the civil war that would happen if I wasn't here," Naruto said as he waves Cammy to leave him alone for now.
Cammy step backwards as she stares at her prince with wide eyes. She closed the door behind her as she couldn't believe what she just heard from him. 'Is that what he thinks we all see him?' she couldn't help but wonder.
"He still can't see that we don't see him as an object but as a person," Février said as she sat up on the bed.
"We have to go slowly in giving out his trust to us," Santamu stated as she could see that Naruto trust has been destroyed by the people of the Leaf too many times for him to give out his trust to anyone freely anymore, even the ones that are standing by him now.
"Once those people from the Leaf get here let's make sure we give them a warm welcome," Jianyu said to her friends. They all nodded in agreement as they're going to show Naruto that he can trust them with his life… or die trying.
