Chapter 7-Of Hammers, Hell, and Safe Havens
There were few things in Naruto's life that he kept from Hinata since they first became a loving couple. Hell, he could honestly say that there wasn't really anything in his life that the woman didn't know about, and in turn Hinata was the same way in sharing her life. They had shared everything together since before the Shinobi era truly came to a close all the way up to now with their lives in Shinto Teito.
However, there was one thing that Naruto kept from Hinata, one thing he didn't tell her was happening within him, and while it wasn't ground breaking...the news would indeed be shocking. What was the secret he was keeping from her?
Jiraiya of the Sannin would visit Naruto in his sleep and Sarutobi Hiruzen would be with him.
As it turned out, Jiraiya had done what his student, and Kushina did during the Kyuubi attack when sealing the fox into their son. Though when he had put a piece of his soul into Naruto's seal while keeping it in stasis to awaken at an unknown time was ultimately unknown to the blonde. The Sandaime had done it when he made to kill Naruto under Orochimaru's command, as his body was obliterated by the Uzumaki, and a piece of his soul got into Naruto undetected though had to go into a form of stasis to avoid being detected by either the boy or the Biju inside of his body.
"Why are you here again? Shouldn't you two be in Hell right now?" asked Naruto, as he found himself a place surrounded by darkness, a fog about ankle deep was underneath him, and saw the two dead Shinobi as he remembered them standing some twenty feet away.
"Watch your mouth Naruto," snapped Jiraiya, his usual lax appearance was not there, and it was all business with him.
"Why should I? Because you raised me? Ha! You weren't there for the first twelve years of my life. Why should I even remotely consider listening to you or the old fart beside you now?" questioned Naruto, as a chair materialized behind him, and sat down casually while ignoring the Toad Sannin's bristling face.
"Because I'm your Godfather! That's why!" exclaimed Jiraiya with Naruto scoffing.
"Some Godfather. You don't raise me for twelve years and then when you are around its half assed training at best! Why Sasuke-teme got near round the clock training from your teammate Orochimaru during those three years, I was stuck waiting for you to wake up in the late morning. And even then, I was watching your lazy perverted ass go all the way to the hot springs for 'research purposes' while ignoring me entirely! I had to beg you for hours on end, interrupt your peeping time, and threaten to leave if you didn't train me!" Naruto shot back with Jiraiya shrugging.
"That's how I work Naruto. I was your sensei and how I train my students is my choice," countered Jiraiya with Naruto scowling at him.
"You didn't train me for shit! You gave me stuff I had no idea how to do and said, 'Here brat! Try to this on your own. I'll be back in a few hours to check on you.' before heading off to the hot springs. What kind of training is that you lazy sack of crap?! Did my Father get that kind of training?" demanded Naruto with Jiraiya scowling at him.
"No it wasn't how I trained your Father, but unlike you, Minato actually had natural talent many would consider Prodigy Level, and the skill to do what I asked of him," answered Jiraiya with Naruto letting out a empty chuckle.
"In other words, he was an easy student to teach, and you were being lazy even back then with training others. So what if I wasn't a Prodigy like my Father? So what if my talent wasn't 'natural' like you wanted? I should have been considered a challenge to you, but instead of meeting the challenge with interest, you just said 'screw it!', and put minimal effort into my training. Hell, you pushed me into a ravine to activate Kurama's power by force, and didn't even try to do it in a practical way. What if I had died? Or did that not matter to you?" countered Naruto with Jiraiya looking away from him.
"It was a win/win no matter what. If you brought out Kyuubi's chakra, you would live to be trained, and if not...well we wouldn't have to worry about the Akatsuki hounding us in the future," replied Jiraiya while Hiruzen nodded in agreement.
"So I was expendable huh? An asset you two could manipulate to your hearts content and then remove when my job was done? And you two bakas wondered why I destroyed the Shinobi era?" demanded Naruto with Jiraiya's scowl deepening and Hiruzen looked less then pleased.
"You did a horrible thing in doing that Naruto. I'm ashamed of you," replied Hiruzen with Jiraiya nodding in agreement and Naruto smirking at them.
"Coming from you Hiruzen, I'll take that as a compliment. Besides, you're not exactly the posture child for 'Mr. Honesty' yourself you old farting monkey," Naruto shot back and got a murderous look from Jiraiya.
"Don't insult sensei you ungrateful brat!" snapped Jiraiya with Naruto shrugging.
"I can insult him and you anyway I want Ero-Sennin. Its the truth. Considering how you two along with Tsunade kept my parents from me and lied when I asked about them. Do not even go there about protecting me from my Father's and Mother's enemies. We both know that is crap! You could have made sure I was trained properly as a Shinobi so I could prepare for such an outcome. Not to mention the old fucker here could have kept the news of me being a Jinchuriki a secret, but decided not to fully knowing what would happen, and cause me untold amounts of pain," countered Naruto with Hiruzen looking less then pleased.
"It was for your own good. The people needed an outlet. They were suffering. It would have poisoned them," explained Hiruzen while Naruto scoffing.
"And letting them take it out on me was the best choice? Let a child with no idea why he is hated take the brunt of their hatred and then lie to him when he asks you why they hate him. Yeah. That makes a lot of sense," replied Naruto sarcastically to him.
"You have no right to pass judgment on us Naruto," said Jiraiya with Naruto scowling at the two.
"And why the fuck not? You two made my life miserable. You two thought it was okay to turn me into your little pet while trying to control a prophecy foretold by a super old toad," replied Naruto with Jiraiya looking pissed off by that.
"It was for your own good. Konoha's future needed to be secured considering the risk you posed to it in the prophecy!" Jiraiya shot back while Naruto yawned before glaring.
"Risk? I wasn't a risk to anyone except those that backstabbed me and my family. Though considering the betrayal the Uzumaki Clan suffered at the hands of Konoha in the Second Shinobi War, it is no real surprise that the old monkey fucker here wanted to control me, and ensure I never got wise to his actions," replied Naruto with Hiruzen stiffening.
"So you know," stated Hiruzen with Naruto nodding.
"Difficult not to know when I found your journal admitting as much when I stole just about everything useful in the Hokage's Office, and found the hidden compartment you had placed under your portrait where it was kept. Add to the fact I found remains of a journal where an Uzumaki in Whirlpool wrote down how Konoha Shinobi were acting very suspicious before the attacks from the other Shinobi villages. You sold out my clan and pillaged the knowledge they had on the seals before the other Shinobi villages could take it before flaunting them around as if they were your own. You tried to wipe out all the knowledge of my clan ever existing soon after my Mother and Father died because you couldn't do it when they were alive! And for what? All to keep me controlled. To keep me contained. Like I was a pet or slave!" accused Naruto with Hiruzen looking furious while Jiraiya having a similar look on his face.
"That's what Jinchuriki are Naruto! They always have been slaves!" exclaimed Jiraiya with Naruto frowning.
"What about my Mother? What about Uzumaki Mito? The Shodaime's wife!" countered Naruto with the Sandaime snarling.
"Sensei and his brother never allowed Mito's status to be known because their emotional ties to her were natural. Not fake like mine and Jiraiya's were to you. Kushina was the same way when she was with Minato and I knew if I revealed it to the village, such an act was not the right time because too many of sensei's old friends were still around to make the village hate her. After their death, I knew the time was upon us where making you the village's obedient weapon was possible, and I took it without any hesitation," answered Hiruzen with conviction in his tone.
"Not to mention instigated the abuse I suffered growing up. You let it happen to make yourself the hero swooping in and made me promise to ignore their hatred by trying to prove I wasn't a monster by becoming Hokage. Something you wrote down in your little journal was never going to happen and you would laugh at the idea of me being Hokage in secret just for the Hell of it," added Naruto with Hiruzen smirking at that since he had played Naruto so easily and Jiraiya helping to pick up the slack after his death.
"That is the life of a Jinchuriki Naruto. You just have to suck up the pain and endure what people throw at you," replied Jiraiya with his own grin while Hiruzen simply nodded in agreement.
"And if you were made a Jinchuriki? Either of you? What if it was your Grandson you old fart monkey? Would you endure the suffering or let Konohamaru suffer?" demanded Naruto with neither men grinning now.
"We don't have to answer that Naruto," replied Hiruzen with Naruto's face becoming granite.
"I think you do. Now answer the fucking question. Would you suffer as I did Ero-Sennin? Would you endure the pain and lies for those bigots?! What about you old monkey? What if you or your Grandson had to endure it? Would you? Would you lash out at them? Or would you try to kill yourself?" asked Naruto with neither man answering him.
Meaning the answer was no.
"Its as I thought. You are both hypocrites. Just like every fucking person in Konoha. You two just further my belief in what I did in destroying the Shinobi era was the right thing to do," concluded Naruto with both men looking pissed off.
"You had no right to do that Naruto. Do you know how many lives you ruined?! Do you know how many Shinobi lost their minds? Do you know how many Shinobi clans that were destroyed?" demanded Jiraiya with Naruto looking at him and it was clear to the Sannin that the blonde didn't give a crap.
"Why are you so upset? I did what the prophecy asked of me. I was foretold to either revolutionize or destroy the Shinobi way as we all knew it. I did both! I revolutionized the Shinobi way by bringing everyone together to fight against a common enemy and then I brought about peace by performing the latter in destroying it. Of course, the last part wouldn't have happened had the Uchiha not backstabbed me, and tried to end my life," replied Naruto with Jiraiya looking livid.
"Your life was meant to end that day brat! You fulfilled the prophecy and should have just accepted your death rather then fight it!" exclaimed Jiraiya angrily with Naruto now looking unhappy.
"So I should have just died huh? I wasn't allowed to have a life after everything I had been through? I wasn't allowed to settle down? Form a family? Have a loving wife and a few kids to call my own?" demanded Naruto with Jiraiya and Hiruzen nodding.
"Of course! That was your purpose in life! Once it was complete, your life had no more value! That is the way of all Jinchuriki!" Jiraiya nearly yelled at him.
"Wrong! I determine my own worth. No one has the right to judge where I stand in terms of value to the world. Not you Ero-Sennin, not the old fart next you, not the people living in Konoha, not Danzo, the Shinobi Elders, not Sasuke, Kakashi, Obito, the Rookies, their senseis, or anyone else like you! I am the Master of my Fate! I am the Captain of my soul and this Captain will not have his soul be controlled by power hungry assholes like you!" exclaimed Naruto with Jiraiya and Hiruzen not liking this one bit.
"You little shit! You only lived as long as you did because of us! If Konoha or Tsunade had their way, you would have been dead within a week after your birth! You owe us your life!" exclaimed Jiraiya with spit coming out of his mouth from the anger he was feeling.
"You tried to manipulate and control my life from the start. I don't owe either of you or the old monkey here anything. You betrayed my parents. You betrayed me. You betrayed the Uzumaki Clan and the Senju Brothers who founded Konoha. You two betrayed the Will of Fire and the purity it once possessed when the village was built. You owe me and its high time I collected by seeing your souls suffer as I have suffered," replied Naruto, as he went through hand signs, and saw how the two were looking at him in shock with a mix of fear since they both recognized the Jutsu.
"You can't! You wouldn't dare summon him here to your mind!" exclaimed Jiraiya before he and Hiruzen were bound in chakra chains made by Naruto within his own mind.
"You two always did underestimate me," countered Naruto before finishing the Jutsu and soon the three of them stood before the Shinigami himself.
"Why have you summoned me here mortal?" demanded the Shinigami with Jiraiya and Hiruzen forced to their knees.
"I wish you to get these two uninvited guest out of my head. They have been in here for too long," answered Naruto before pointing to Jiraiya and Hiruzen with the Shinigami looking at the two before narrowing its eyes at them.
"You two! I was wondering where your souls ran off to when your bodies died the first and second time around. You should have stayed in my stomach Sarutobi Hiruzen and as for you Jiraiya of the Sannin...you have no business being in this mortal's body!" said the Shinigami with Naruto smirking at them.
"What about him?! He deserves to have his soul ripped out and devoured. That's the rule you made when the contract was created to summon you," countered Jiraiya with the Death God looking from him to Naruto.
"Normally that would be true, but considering he is summoning me to take two souls away that deserve to suffer within my stomach, I don't have to take his from him," replied the Shinigami with Jiraiya and Hiruzen protesting how unfair it was.
"That's not fair!" protested Jiraiya with Naruto smirking at them both.
"Not so fun to be on the receiving end of unfairness, is it? Don't worry Ero-Sennin, I will be sure to make your name known in one of my less smuttier Icha Icha Paradise books," remarked Naruto while the two Shinobi in front of him glared furiously in his direction.
"This isn't over yet Naruto! You will pay for the crimes committed against all Shinobi everywhere!" exclaimed Jiraiya, as he along with Hiruzen were put in the hands of the Death God.
"Wrong. It is over. For you two. Goodbye and good riddance," replied Naruto while seeing the two become devoured by the Shinigami.
"It is done. I won't take your soul mortal, but know if you summon me again...I will devour it," stated the Shinigami with Naruto nodding.
"Which is why I have no intention of doing this a second time. They were in my head for awhile and I was trying to figure out how to remove them without killing myself. You were the only plausible course left before me," answered Naruto with the Shinigami just looking at him before fading away.
"A smart move on your part mortal. Very smart yet very risky since you had no way of knowing if I would take your soul. Do not summon me again unless you wish to be devoured yourself," replied the Shinigami before he was gone from Naruto's sight.
And Naruto let out a breath of relief knowing he had dodge one Hell of a bullet there.
(Real World)
Naruto awoke, his eyes looked to see Hinata was beside him, her arm was currently over chest in a loving manner, and her face snuggled loving against him. Smiling, he kissed her forehead, earning a moan from the Hyuuga woman, who loved him with all her heart, and had gone through so much to be with the former Jinchuriki of Kurama.
Damn he was lucky.
"Morning Naruto-kun," whispered Hinata, as she snuggled even closer, and loved the warmth she felt from his body.
"Morning Hinata-chan. Did you sleep well?" asked Naruto with Hinata smiling up at him.
"Of course. I'm with you. You seem troubled by something," said Hinata since she had sensed it through his chakra being in a slight flux when asleep.
"Its nothing Hinata-chan. Just some...old ghosts that refused to pass on. I took care of it," answered Naruto with Hinata looking at him for a second before nodding.
She trusted him to handle things and if he couldn't...Hinata knew Naruto would tell her if that was the case.
"I'm glad," replied Hinata before kissing him and he moaned from the affection.
"Unfortunately, we have to get up soon. Akitsu, Tsukiumi, and Kazehana are going to be waking up," said Naruto with Hinata groaning since she wanted to spend more time with him.
"We both know it won't be long before the Shadow Clones you make for them to sleep with will not be enough," stated Hinata, as she saw him slowly nod, and sighing in defeat knowing his three Sekirei would eventually want to sleep with the real Naruto, and not the copies he made for each of them.
"It can't be helped," replied Naruto with Hinata nodding.
"What do you intend to do about Higa? Or Mikogami?" asked Hinata knowing those two were the biggest pains within the 'game' that was the Sekirei Plan created by Minaka.
"I'll deal with Mikogami first. As for Higa, I will save him for last, and this time...there will be nothing left standing. We spared him because I didn't want to kill an innocent boy for his Father's sins. Now I see sparing Higa was a mistake. One I will rectify very soon," answered Naruto with Hinata nodding before she got off the bed.
"And I will help you when the time comes. No doubt the other three will wish to aid you in battle should you call on them," said Hinata, as she let Naruto watch her female figure head to the bathroom for a shower, and knowing he would soon join in the cleaning of their bodies.
After they got dirty.
(Later that Morning)
"I still do not like the idea of this strumpet being your Sekirei," said Tsukiumi while she glared daggers at Kazehana, who was sitting across from her at the table, and smiling a lazy smile at her.
"Will you stop Miss Panty Flash, I just spent all last night drinking sake with my husband in celebration of our marriage a few days ago, and I don't need to hear your loud voice right now," said Kazehana while Naruto let out a small sigh before he glanced at his sputtering and now angrier looking water Sekirei looking like she wanted to unleash a tidal wave upon the wind using Sekirei.
"How dare thee call me that again! And in front of my husband no less! You are nothing more then a concubine who is attempting to seduce my husband with your trollop like ways!" exclaimed Tsukiumi with Kazehana just smirking at her.
"Maybe I am. Maybe I'm not. I won't tell. Maybe I spent last night with my husband and made passionate love to one other," countered Kazehana in a teasing tone while Tsukiumi looked ready to explode with rage.
"Lies! Thou did not have her wedding night before me. I am the strongest of us and I will not have thee or the ice strumpet here have your wedding night before mine!" protested Tsukiumi while standing with Kazehana frowning slightly and so did Akitsu for obvious reasons.
"That's enough Tsukiumi," commanded Naruto with Tsukiumi looking like she wanted to say more, but couldn't because of the order, and sat down again while glaring at the wind using Sekirei.
"Naruto-kun is right. You three Sekirei are sisters now. You three share the very same Ashikabi. The very same husband. MY husband," added Hinata with Tsukiumi looking away with a red face, Kazehana nodding respectfully to her, and Akitsu looking down in a submissive gesture that she understood the Hyuuga's meaning.
If they wanted to be with their Ashikabi on any intimate level like the Hyuuga woman was, each one of them had to get through Hinata, and she was not going to make it easy for either of them.
"Hinata is right. You three are sisters. Each of you are my Sekirei and have to share me equally. I am not only being shared amongst the three of you, but with Hinata-chan as well. We are a family. Remember that," stated Naruto with the three Sekirei in front of him nodding in understanding since they did want to be with their Ashikabi and would try to handle this matter of sharing the man with each other.
"Begging your pardon sir, but Asama Miya has just called, and stated there is a small yet urgent matter over at Maison Izumo that requires your presence immediately," said Jarvis with the holographic butler materializing in front of them and awaiting orders from his creator.
"Did she say what it was exactly?" asked Naruto with a frown since he didn't expect Miya to call him after a few days over a possibly small matter since the landlady could handle just about anything thrown her way.
He and Hinata had seen to that.
"No sir. She only mentioned that it required 'the power of your eyes' and that it involved a forcefully winged bird needing to be free," replied Jarvis with Naruto frowning further.
"You don't think...," said Hinata with Naruto nodding.
"Sadly, I do Hinata-chan. Jarvis, call Miya back and tell her I'll be there in a moment," replied Naruto with Jarvis nodding before his form vanished.
"What does thou butler mean husband?" asked Tsukiumi, as she saw him quickly finish his meal, and stand up with Akitsu doing the same while forgetting her own meal to be by his side.
"Nothing that should concern you Tsukiumi. Just continue eating your breakfast with everyone else. You too Akitsu. I won't be long," replied Naruto with Akitsu looking like she wanted to come along and be by his side.
"Ah...I wish to come along with Ashikabi-sama," requested Akitsu in her usual quiet and submissive voice while Tsukiumi frowned at her with Kazehana looking impassive.
"I don't expect to be gone for long Akitsu," replied Naruto with Akitsu not looking him in the eyes.
"But...I want to be near Ashikabi-sama," protested Akitsu while hoping her insistence did not upset him or Hinata.
"Its all right Naruto-kun. She just wants to be near you. Take Akitsu-chan with you," said Hinata while Tsukiumi looked ready to protest, but a quick look from the Hyuuga woman shut her down, and Kazehana smiled at Akitsu for wanting to be near her Ashikabi.
"Okay. I just need to get properly dressed so Akitsu-chan will have some time to finish her meal, and when I come back out we will go," said Naruto with Akitsu nodding and went about to finish her meal while the blonde himself went to get changed.
"Why does she get to go with my husband on this little trip?" demanded Tsukiumi once Naruto was out of the room.
"Because out of all three of you, Akitsu-chan here is the most insecure about her spot as Naruto-kun's Sekirei, and you are not helping in the matter," replied Hinata firmly while seeing Tsukiumi had looked away from her semi-cold gaze.
"The poor girl was given wings when everyone said it wasn't possible Tsukiumi and yet Akitsu still fears being discarded. Like it or not Tsukiumi, she needs this time with our Ashikabi, and I say we give it to her. She really wants to be around her Ashikabi and embrace the bond many Sekirei really take for granted," replied Kazehana while seeing Akitsu finish her meal faster then usual to ensure she was ready to go when Naruto came out.
"Well...I suppose when thou explains it like that...," replied Tsukiumi offhandedly, as she had to admit the thought of being in Akitsu's position in being a "scrapped number" for even a moment sounded horrible, and the finally have what was once thought impossible to achieve could make a Sekirei want to ensure its survival more then usual.
"Ready Akitsu?" asked Naruto, as he came out in simple civilian clothes, and saw Akitsu rise from her seat.
"Yes Ashikabi-sama," answered Akitsu in an instant and walked over to him in a few smooth graceful strides before latching onto his arm with the two of them heading out the door.
"Isn't the power of love grand! The power of love between an Ashikabi and Sekirei is just so incredible!" exclaimed Kazehana happily with hearts floating up around her while Hinata had a sweat drop forming and Tsukiumi's tsundere protocols kicked in since she didn't like hearing that.
"Quiet wench! Thou are a concubine and will not say such things in the presence of his one true Sekirei wife!" exclaimed Tsukiumi with Kazehana waved her insult off.
"Says the angry woman constantly flashing her panties everywhere she goes," remarked Kazehana with Tsukiumi looking ready to explode again.
"Take that back thou foul strumpet!" exclaimed Tsukiumi with Kazehana smirking at the water using Sekirei before turning to Hinata.
"Is there any chance I could have some sake Hinata-sensei?" asked Kazehana with Hinata giving her what could only be called her "Miya smile" that Miya herself adopted after she became the loving housewife of Takehito and landlady of Maison Izumo.
"You drinking sake in the morning is strictly forbidden in this house," answered Hinata, as she employed the Hanya Mask that Miya usually used, and made the two Sekirei in front of her tremble in fear.
(Maison Izumo)
Miya sipped her tea while looked at the unconscious, beaten, and bloody body of a man Matsu identified as one Junichi Tanigawa. A man, who was an Ashikabi of a now crying, and depressed look Sekirei #84 Yashima currently being watched by slightly sympathetic Musubi. Miya had her trusty katana by her side while showing she was the embodiment of calmness, and waited for her sensei to arrive to handle this situation. At the moment, Minato was out, employed by the construction company Seo was also currently employed in, and was trying keep a steady income for his two violent Sekirei. Though Miya knew that Seo would, given the perverted piece of trash's behavior, would either quit the job, or more then likely get fired by his Boss.
Of course, right now Miya wasn't worried about either Ashikabi at the moment, as she had to deal with this piece of trash that had dared to come here, and pick a fight with one of her tenants at Maison Izumo. It was well known to every Sekirei and most if not all Ashikabi that provoking the Hanya of the North was basically the same thing as assisted suicide since you were basically marching to your death along with the person helping you make the trip. That was one of the rules regarding any hostile action being done in the North, which went double for anyone going after her sensei, and was now reinforced further by Minaka himself. A text message went out sometime earlier this morning to all Ashikabi to not only avoid the Hanya of the North unless they wanted to die a painful death, but the newly proclaimed Masked Kitsune Demon of the North as well. The title was one that the President of M.B.I. had proclaimed Naruto best labeled the blonde, and it seemed to stick according to Matsu.
Though it seemed not everyone cared about the text message warning others to stay away and someone decided to target Miya's home.
That man was Junichi Tanigawa.
"I'm here Miya! You needed me for something important?" asked Naruto, as he entered the house with Akitsu right behind him with sharp eyes looking in every direction for a possible threat, and instantly locked onto the Sekirei in the corner beside Musubi with a giant hammer beside the two.
Akitsu made a mental note to use her powers to freeze the hammer to the floor should the clearly scared Sekirei beside Musubi decided to reach for it.
"Yes. It would seem that this piece of trash for an Ashikabi here tried to attack my home to get to my tenant Sahashi Minato and his Sekirei living at Maison Izumo. According to his Sekirei over there, he did so under orders from someone name Izumi Higa, and did so to teach Minato a lesson that having his Sekirei helping you would cost him dearly. Of course, he underestimated Musubi being able to handle Sekirei #84 Yashima, and how I dislike trash acting like sore losers while on my property," answered Miya before went on to explain how the fool tried to stab Musubi from behind with a knife after Yashima was outmatched and tried to flank the usually naive Fist Type Sekirei.
"I understand your reason for smacking him around, but that still doesn't explain why you needed my help dealing with the baka," replied Naruto with Miya nodding before sipping some tea.
"While I could easily kill this lowly piece of trash, as I am well within my right, in doing so would deactivate Yashima, and thus take her out of the game. It hardly seems fair that the poor girl should be deactivated because her Ashikabi was a piece of trash and was not even her chosen one from the start," countered Miya with Naruto frowning for a moment before his blue eyes widened in realization at what she wanted him to do.
"You want me to use my Dojutsu on the two of them," stated Naruto, as he saw Miya nod while Musubi looking at him in curiosity, and wondering what they were talking about.
"Yes," answered Miya while she heard the downed piece of trash in front of her mumble distorted words of profanity.
The only reason she didn't smack him over the head with her sheathed katana was due to no one could truly hear what he was saying.
"Miya, there is a reason I don't use my power like that in public much less in private, and not everyone can keep a secret like you can," replied Naruto while glancing at Musubi.
"Ah...I can keep a secret Ashikabi-sama," whispered Akitsu with Naruto looking over his shoulder at her and smiled.
"I know you can Akitsu-chan. I wasn't referring to you as someone who would tell others about my powers. I trust that what is seen by your eyes will remain a secret until I say otherwise," replied Naruto with Akitsu blushing and nodding with a small smile on his face.
'Ashikabi-sama trusts me,' thought Akitsu before going into her own little fantasy world with Naruto being at the center of it.
With part of the fantasy going to the realm of the erotic.
"I understand sensei. Which is why Musubi-chan is going to go to the store to get some much needed groceries for me," replied Miya, as she handed Musubi a bag seemingly out of nowhere with a long list of what she wanted, and the Fist Type Sekirei gave a little pout.
"Mu I wanted to see Naruto-sama's powers," whined Musubi with Miya pulling out her Hanya Mask.
"If you don't go get what I asked, I won't train you for the next three days, and you won't eat any of my food I make for two of them," countered Miya, as she saw Musubi grab the list, and the bag before running out of the house at incredible speed.
"Now that's motivation. Shame you don't have a twin sister Miya. I know a certain lazy Nara from my old time frame that would have been the perfect wife for him," remarked Naruto with a sigh while thinking of Shikamaru and wondered if the lazy man would have gotten a Sekirei in all of this.
Oh who was Naruto kidding, chances are Shikamaru would have gotten the two lightning twins Hibiki, and Hikari with those temperamental Sekirei shocking him without mercy almost every single day. In fact, Seo was almost exactly like Shikamaru in every single way with the exception of the man's stupidity, and mooching off other people like Miya when in the red financially.
Interesting when you thought about it.
"Please don't say that sensei. Now if you could handle this piece of trash in front of me that would be wonderful," replied Miya, as she had made sure Kusano was currently being entertained by Matsu upstairs.
Normally, this would seem like a bad thing given how the red haired Sekirei's perverted tendencies towards her Ashikabi could make the green girl's innocent way of thinking be destroyed. BUT Miya had told the hacker of the house that under no uncertain terms was she to corrupt the little Sekirei or there would be quote: "Hell to pay from which there is no escape," end quote. Needless to say, Matsu promised to be a good sitter, and keep any potential mind corrupting material away from Kusano until it was safe to bring the child out into the open.
Homura was currently busy with his job or Unwinged Sekirei duties while Uzume had gone to see Chiho at the clinic roughly twenty minutes prior to the attack on Maison Izumo.
"You want me to do this here? In this room?" asked Naruto with Miya nodding.
"Yes. Doing this outside would only frightening the neighbors," replied Miya sweetly with Naruto sweat dropping at her answer.
Okay. The first thing we need to do is move the table here out of the way and the second is to remove this baka from the land of the living," replied Naruto with a sigh before he made a few Shadow Clones to move the table.
"N-No! P-P-P-Please don't kill my Ashikabi. I know h-he's not perfect, but...," pleaded Yashima from her spot in the corner and saw Akitsu eyeing her carefully while blocking any chance of reaching for the giant hammer.
"The man beats you, uses you, and would throw your life away if possible. This baka wasn't even your destined one. I'd wager this guy killed your original destined one in order to stake his claim on you," stated Naruto with Yashima flinching and it proved to the blonde that he was right about that last part.
"He is still my Ashikabi," replied Yashima in a quiet whisper with tears in her eyes.
"Not for much longer," replied Naruto before the Shadow Clones dragged the beaten man into the center of the living area now that the table was quickly moved.
"What are you going to do?" asked Yashima while seeing Naruto's hands going through strange hand sign like configurations.
"I'm going to have the King of Hell judge him," replied Naruto, as he finished his hand signs, the Rinnegan now active, and summoned the entity to appear like it was rising from the ground beside Junichi Tanigawa's form.
The entity nearly took up all the space in the living area and made Yashima scream out in fright while Akitsu moved behind Naruto in a submissive state to ensure the entity knew that she was no threat to the one summoning it. Miya wasn't bothered by the entity, as she had seen it being used before at another point in time, and watched as Naruto used it now on man in front of them. Something she found strange since her sensei explained that it was only supposed to be seen by the one it was being used on, but Naruto assumed it was due to her being a Sekirei, and it was probably different for her race of people. Yashima was probably seeing this bizarre entity because her Ashikabi was being judged and she was bound to the fool about to face judgment. Akitsu was the Sekirei of the man using it so it was possible the bond she had with Naruto allowed her to see such a sight before her very eyes.
Or something close to that. There were too many possibilities and theories to sort out.
As for the King of Hell, it grabbed the life force of Junichi Tanigawa, which came out looking like a human tongue being extended far behind the normal, and natural means of a tongue being extended. The man it was being used on had awakened, he saw the entity before him, crying out in surprise, and in pain at having his life force dragged out to face the King of Hell's judgment.
"A-Ashikabi-sama!" cried Yashima, as she moved slightly from her spot, but one look from Naruto's Rinnegan Eyes made her freeze on the spot.
"Your Ashikabi has caused a great deal of pain to you Yashima. Not only that, but he has killed several Ashikabi after you were able to successfully take out their Sekirei, and was paid considerably for it. This man cares for nothing but himself and if he's allowed to live the man will only cause more pain from his actions with you being his punching bag/tool. This isn't a partnership for you Yashima. It isn't a marriage. Its enslavement. Its time you were set free from such a life," said Naruto before making a hand sign and saw the life force of one Junichi Tanigawa was taken out of the man with death claiming him.
"A-Ashikabi-sama...," whispered Yashima, but before the girl could say anything further, the Sekirei crest on her back vanished to indicate she had been deactivated following the death of her Ashikabi.
Not even concerned for the fact a Sekirei was down in his presence, Naruto made a few clones, and had them drag the now lifeless body of the former Ashikabi out of the house. Even as they did, Naruto sent a mental order to them to have the body sealed into a scroll for later use in a plan of his now in the making, and would ensure a certain greedy power hungry prick never crossed him again.
"Akitsu-chan, please pick up Yashima, and put her in the middle of the room in front of the King of Hell," ordered Naruto with Akitsu looking at him for a moment before she turned to look at the large and might entity in the room.
"Yes Ashikabi-sama," replied Akitsu, as she was a bit afraid of the King of Hell, and for good reason since the entity seemed befitting for someone to rule over such a dark place.
Still, her Ashikabi had given the ice using Sekirei a command, and Akitsu was not one to disobey the man responsible for giving her wings. She felt Naruto through the bond and his assurances that this entity would not do what it did to the fiend of an Ashikabi that was just killed. Whatever her Ashikabi had planned for this Sekirei, Akitsu felt that it was done to help Yashima, and Naruto was asking her to trust him.
"Watch closely Akitsu-chan. I'm going to show you a power I have rarely ever use since acquiring it. A power I have not used in a long time and one I wish I had used if I was faster in reaching Miya's husband in time. 'GedÅ: Rinne Tensei no Jutsu!'" said Naruto, as he saw the King of Hell move over Yashima's body, and devour the woman whole within its mouth.
Akitsu watched in awe and wonder at seeing this entity devour a fellow Sekirei, its eyes that looked like her Ashikabi's very own at the moment, and were now glowing just like his body from the release of so much chakra. The body of Yashima was soon lifted out by the creature's mouth via its tongue and was gently placed in the middle of the room where Akitsu had first put her following Naruto's order. As for Akitsu herself, she had watched how Yashima was unmoving for a second, and wondered what her Ashikabi had done to the giant hammer wielding Sekirei.
Before her own eyes widened in shock at seeing Yashima's eyes suddenly shoot open and let out a gasp for air while shooting up. The hammer wielding Sekirei looked around, as she saw Akitsu, Naruto, Miya, and the very entity that had killed her former Ashikabi prior to deactivation.
"I am...alive? But...my Ashikabi was killed. I should be deactivated!" exclaimed Yashima in alarm, as she was wondering what exactly was done to her, and saw the King of Hell soon recede into the ground back from whence it came.
Most likely Hell itself.
"You were deactivated, but I used my power to bring you back Yashima. You can now find a proper Ashikabi and be winged once again," replied Naruto, as he saw Yashima looking at him in surprise, and was unable to speak from the shock of this news.
Miya merely smiled since this would give Yashima a chance to fly once more after she found a loving Ashikabi to give her wings.
As for Akitsu...she was strangely looking at Naruto like he was some kind of God made flesh and the blush now forming on her cheeks soon consuming her face. There was also lust there, but it was controlled if only barely, and wanted to be in closer proximity to him.
Naruto found it a bit odd and also quite amusing.
"I can find an Ashikabi again?" asked Yashima to make sure she heard correctly.
"Yes. But I would strongly suggest that you choose to find someone you would react to and no me. No offense to you Yashima-san, but I have three Sekirei, and they were all reacting to me when I caused them to emerge. You are not and I won't wing a Sekirei that is not reacting to me," answered Naruto while seeing Akitsu moving slowly and quietly closer to him to ensure Yashima wouldn't suddenly rush toward him for a quick winging to show her gratitude.
"Yes. Of course. Thank you Naruto-sama. I will find my true Ashikabi now. The one I was meant to have originally maybe gone thanks to the one responsible for forcibly winging me, but that doesn't mean another will not arise, and I hope he is as kind as you have been in giving me a second chance," said Yashima, as she bowed before him, and Naruto smiled at her.
"I hope so too. Until then, I would suggest staying here at Maison Izumo until you have found him, or her depending on who you react to when the time comes," said Naruto with Yashima nodding in understanding.
"I will Naruto-sama. Again, thank you for this opportunity for a second chance," replied Yashima, as she bowed again, and Naruto's smile never left him.
"Your welcome Yashima. Miya, I'll send you money through proper channels to cover Yashima's rent until she finds her Ashikabi," said Naruto with Miya letting out a small giggle behind her hand covered sleeve currently in front of her face.
"Oh my! Aren't you the gentlemen Naruto-sensei. You aren't trying to be nice to seduce this poor widow now, are you?" replied Miya with Naruto smirking at her while Akitsu frowned at the teasing.
"Hardly. I'm just making sure this bird has a nest to live in until she can fly again," said Naruto before getting up, but wobbled a bit, and Akitsu was instantly by his side to help straighten him.
"Ashikabi-sama?" asked Akitsu with concern.
"Don't worry Akitsu-chan. Using those two abilities back to back so soon after the other can be a bit...draining on my energy despite them being so massive. Its like sending a large heavy rock into the water with intense speed and strength that actually parts the water itself before it comes swarming back in to the briefly open space again. Those two Jutsus when used like they were now are just like that with my pool of energy inside my body. I'm okay now," answered Naruto with Akitsu looking him in the eyes with concern before she nodded after finding what she needed to when looking at him.
"I suppose you will be leaving now sensei," said Miya with Naruto nodding.
"I have to be elsewhere. I was actually wasn't expecting you to call me for anything like this after I was here a few days ago," answered Naruto with Miya nodding.
"I know, but the situation required your intervention. Hopefully, I won't need your help for quite a while sensei," replied Miya before seeing his Shadow Clones put the table back like it had never been moved.
"That makes two of us. See you around Miya," said Naruto, as he walked out of the house with Akitsu right him, and just when Musubi came home with all the groceries on the list.
"You're leaving already? Mu I missed seeing you use your powers, didn't I?" whined a depressed Musubi before Naruto gave the girl a gentle pat on the head.
"Sorry, it can't be helped Musubi. Maybe next time you'll get to see," replied Naruto in a soothing tone that helped make Musubi happy again.
"Right!" exclaimed Musubi with determination before waving the two off when they left the property.
With the secret task done, Naruto walked with Akitsu by his side, both her arms wrapped around his right one, and against her chest that was being restrained from pure contact due to the chains that held her clothing together. As they walked, Naruto saw Akitsu's face was burning up, she was breathing heavier, and was clearly feeling some kind of aftereffect from using so much of his power to revive Yashima. Naruto wondered if Kazehana or Tsukiumi were feeling the same way as Akitsu did now, but that didn't seem possible since he sensed those two now flustered alien women were currently located at his house, and would be too far away to feel like the woman beside him currently felt right now.
"Ashikabi-sama...I...I...feel...," said Akitsu while panting, as she couldn't even convey her thoughts, or the very words that could express this sudden overwhelming rush of intense heat now running through her body.
No! This wasn't heat. This was a fire! A fire only Naruto could put out. She needed the touch of her Ashikabi. She needed him now!
"Akitsu-chan I-hhmmp!" said Naruto, but was interrupted when Akitsu kissed him right on the lips, her passion for him having reached the point where rational thought was out the window, and deep primal instinctive desire.
As they kissed, Akitsu's wing's flared brightly, but she didn't care about that, and held onto his shirt with all her strength while pressing him against a nearby wall. She did this with a surprising aggressiveness that neither Naruto nor Akitsu knew she possess before today. While Naruto had suspected this might happen, given the ice user's personality, her desire to be with him, and being near him while expelling so much of his chakra at Maison Izumo...he never expected this to happen this soon. And what Naruto found to be more troubling on another level was his own body was reacting to Akitsu's actions with his hands doing some roaming of their own.
One hand was on Akitsu's upper back pressing her close to him while the other hand was aggressively grabbing the woman's rump and making the ice using Sekirei moan deep into his mouth. She wanted him so badly, her hips moving against her Ashikabi, feeling his own arousal between his legs, and gasped from feeling it poke her own womanhood currently being protected only by the kimono she was wearing.
She had forgotten to wear panties too.
"I want you Ashikabi-sama. I need you. Please, take me now!" demanded Akitsu, as her urges that she had kept at bay until now could not be restrained any longer, and the ice using Sekirei was not going to be denied.
"Are you sure?" asked Naruto, his breathing was also ragged, and felt his Sharingan Eyes activate.
"Yes. I cannot hold back my desire any longer. I've tried to show restraint, but I cannot hold what I feel back anymore," replied Akitsu, as she saw him nod, and moment later they left the spot they were standing in to find themselves back home in the woman's personal bedroom.
"Disrobe. I need but a moment to secure the room," commanded Naruto with his voice now saturated with lust before going through hand signs and created a sound barrier to keep the noise they would make from being heard.
As for the Sekirei bonds with Tsukiumi and Kazehana, he could tell that the former of the two was angry right now, having felt what was going to happen through it. The latter was far more understanding, as she sent a little knowing pulse towards Naruto, which was her little version of a wink, and basically saying "go get her you stud!" to him. Naruto knew Kazehana was expecting her own private time with him eventually, as the bonds he had with the wind using Sekirei, and water using Sekirei told him that their own desires were going to reach a certain point where neither could restrain themselves.
With the barrier up, Naruto turned to see Akitsu had disrobed completely, her clothing was on the floor around at the ankles, and the blonde saw the ice user was now sporting a shy timid face while looking away from him. It was actually amazing really since Akitsu was showing the exact same look Hinata had on hers once upon a time on their first night together back during the twilight of the Shinobi era.
"There is no need to be shy Akitsu-chan," whispered Naruto, as he was now right in front of her, and saw the woman's blush increase while under his gaze.
"I am...not ugly?" asked Akitsu, as she knew the answer to her own question, but would prefer to hear it from Naruto, and saw the smirk on his face.
"Of course not. You are stunning. Just like Hinata-chan, Tsukiumi-chan, and Kazehana-chan," replied Naruto before kissing the woman passionately and loved how she let out such a cute moan while gripping him tightly once more.
Sometime during their making out, Naruto had slowly, but effectively removed his own clothing until he was down to his boxers, and was going to remove them when Akitsu surprisingly stopped him. Looking at her curiously, he got his silent question answered when slender female hands grabbed the waistband of his boxers, and began to tug them down herself. When the undergarment pooled at his feet, Naruto felt a sense of pride go through him at seeing Akitsu's eyes go wide in shock at the sight of his manhood, and the lust that soon followed from seeing it standing at attention.
Any lingering doubts Akitsu may have had about herself being considered ugly in her Ashikabi's eyes were instantly destroyed by the sight of it.
Moving Akitsu closer to the bed, the two of them onto it with the ice user on her back, and Naruto on top with the woman gasping at the sudden act of closeness. Instinctively, she wrapped one of her legs around him, holding Naruto close, and felt the muscles on his back while closing her eyes to commit the feel of them to memory. She gasped when his lips kissed her neck down to the shoulder, nipping here, there, and sucking on a spot that made Akitsu quiver to the point of nearly having an small orgasm. Akitsu adjusted her hips underneath Naruto to rub against his groin, feeling the heat within her increasing, and moaned with want for him to finally make the final connection that bound them both together.
"Ashikabi...please!" moaned Akitsu desperately into his ear.
"Since this will be your first time with me...it will hurt," whispered Naruto before moving into position while Akitsu slowly began kissing his ear and nipping at it.
"I will endure it for you Ashikabi-sama," Akitsu whispered back while feeling her loins were frothing with desire when she felt the head of his erection press against her entrance moments later.
There was a pause. Just the briefest of pauses, but it was the longest that Akitsu had ever known, as she waited for that final push, and for a single second the woman feared that Naruto would not go through with it. That he would say no. That he would leave the room and never speak to her again.
But after that second went by, the feeling of him entering was felt, and Akitsu's hopes of being one with her Ashikabi quickly returned a thousand fold. The pain she felt didn't even register, as she cried tears of joy, not pain at the feeling of being joined with her Ashikabi, and held him tighter to her body while letting the sensation of the man's shaft going deep to the base where it finally stopped. The sensation by itself had brought the usually timid and shy woman to an orgasm almost instantly, whispering out his name passionately into his ear.
"Tell me when you are ready Akitsu-chan. I'll wait," replied Naruto lovingly, as he was not about to overwhelm the girl, and possibly cause untold pain.
"I'm ready. Please continue," whispered Akitsu before kissing the side of his face.
And Naruto complied.
Akitsu felt bliss take her, as she felt the man on top of her move up, and down with his cock. The sensation heightened at times when Naruto shifted this way or that to change the angle of him entering her pussy with the sound of flesh smacking flesh echoing within the room. While Naruto did this, one of his hands was on one of Akitsu's amazing breasts, and groping it with the skill of a man that knew where to touch just the right spot to make a woman know pleasure from the act. Akitsu herself arched her back, the feeling of him against bringing about another orgasm, and wrapping her other leg tightly around his waist.
At the same time, despite the haze of pleasure she felt, Akitsu also knew her Ashikabi had yet to feel the same pleasurable sensation she had just felt. It seemed unfair that a man, who had given her so much would not be given such pleasure in return, and decided to change that. Mentally calling on her own body to obey the command she wished to give, Akitsu focused on the muscles of her womanhood to flex around Naruto's shaft, squeezing it, milking it for the contents that she desired, and knew it was working when hearing Naruto suddenly groaning in pleasure. His powerful thrusts were starting to speed up, breathing was becoming more erratic, and Akitsu could tell Naruto was getting closer to the brink of releasing his seed into her body.
"Akitsu...I'm going to...to...to cum soon!" warned Naruto while unsure if he should pull out or keep himself locked within the Sekirei's pussy.
"Cum inside me Ashikabi-sama. Please! I want it! I need it!" exclaimed Akitsu, as she held him tighter, and felt his thrusts getting faster to the point where she couldn't see straight.
"I'm cumming Akitsu! I'm cumming!" exclaimed Naruto, as he came hard inside of his Sekirei, and heard her cry out in pleasure this time from the orgasm she received in the process.
"That was...incredible Ashikabi-sama," whispered Akitsu while breathing heavily into Naruto's ear while hearing him let out a small chuckle into her ear.
"Oh my dear Akitsu-chan...you haven't seen anything yet," Naruto whispered back in a deep husky voice and began kissing her neck more fiercely.
"Ah...Ashikabi-sama?" asked Akitsu, as she felt him move, and soon found herself on top this time while looking down at him.
"I probably should have warned you and the others about this considering this moment was going to happen sooner or later. But I honestly thought I had more time before telling you this piece of information or perhaps I was hoping Hinata-chan had in my place," replied Naruto, as he grabbed Akitsu's breasts, and enjoyed playing with them while his face took on a more feral appearance.
"Ah...Ashikabi-sama I...I don't un-understa-AAAND!" exclaimed Akitsu, as she felt him pinch her already sensitive nipples, and her eyes widened in realization that his shaft had not gone soft like she was first told during her educational studies of intimacy a Sekirei has with their Ashikabi when having this level of sexual contact.
"As you might have already known or guessed, I have a very healthy sexual relationship with Hinata-chan. What you didn't know is just how much effort it takes on Hinata's part to sate my lustful urges when we couple. I was in many ways a stamina freak before I became what I am now and its only grown since those days to the point of going way beyond human. When my appetite is pushed enough by whatever means causes it, I tend to let out a bit of a...feral side, and my lust tends to demand that such a fire be satisfied," answered Naruto, as one of his hands left her breasts, and went right for Akitsu's rear end before giving it a hard "SLAP!" that made the woman arch in pleasure along with the slight almost unnoticeable jolt of pain.
"Feral side?" asked Akitsu before moaning in pleasure from the combined assault on her breast and rear end by Naruto's skilled hands while he moved the lower parts of their body how he wanted.
"Yes. In short...you will be sore later from our time together Akitsu-chan. I suggest you brace yourself," answered Naruto with his feral grin increasing with lust in his eyes and it made Akitsu a bit fearful yet excited at the same time.
'Ah...I think I'm in trouble,' thought Akitsu, as she soon found out just how feral Naruto could be in terms of sexual intimacy, and that her Ashikabi was indeed a stamina freak.
Not that she had any problems with that simple fact.
(Sometime Later)
Naruto kissed a sleeping Akitsu on the side of her head, earning a moan from the tired, and exhausted woman sleeping after their time together. The blonde was fully dressed when he left Akitsu's bedroom, his footsteps silent like a trained Shinobi's steps should be when walking, and made his way outside until he got to the edge of the building to look down at the city.
"I hear you and Akitsu spent a lot of time together today," said Hinata, as she was walked up behind him, and saw her husband nodding.
"You could say that," replied Naruto before turning slowly to see Hinata staring at him with an unreadable face.
"I sense you feel a bit uneasy," stated Hinata, as she saw him nod, and look back at the city below.
"I care about Akitsu. I'm glad I was able to make her happy," said Naruto while Hinata walked over and linked her arms with one of his own.
"Except you feel that it was somehow a betrayal to me despite that fact this act of being intimate with her had to happen. Like it will have to eventually happen with Tsukiumi and Kazehana," added Hinata while Naruto flinched slightly.
"Isn't it a betrayal?" asked Naruto with Hinata surprisingly shaking her head no.
"Hardly. You didn't just wake up one day and decide to get involved in the Sekirei Plan. You didn't just decide to wing a Sekirei and then sleep with her. This was something that in some twisted way...well it had to happen," replied Hinata with Naruto looking at her with a bit of disbelief.
"Had to happen?" questioned Naruto with Hinata giving him a look that told him to hear her out.
"Yes it had to happen. Think about it Naruto-kun. When we left M.B.I. all those years ago, did we let down our guard? No. Did we stop training? No Did we ever slack off and become everyday people? No. We kept training. We kept our skills as Shinobi sharp at a razor's edge. Deep down we knew a day would come when one or both of us would be part of the Sekirei Plan and fighting those within it. Deep down, I believe that we were preparing ourselves for the inevitable, and that we would have to roll with the punches when the time came," replied Hinata, as she saw Naruto shift slightly, and knew he still didn't like the idea of hurting her.
"Still...part of me feels that you should have a Sekirei to make things fair," said Naruto with Hinata smacking him in the chest.
"Don't even say that Naruto-kun. Don't get me wrong, I think being an Ashikabi would be an interesting experience to have, but I just can't see myself with anyone else, and I don't want to be with anyone else. I have you and that's all I need," replied Hinata with Naruto sighing and looking at her with sad eyes.
"There are times I feel you are too good for me," said Naruto before he was given a kiss by Hinata and she held him close.
"You have to banish such thoughts from your head Naruto-kun. Such thoughts are seeds of doubt planted by Konoha and those within it that wanted to make you question any of the happiness you wanted from the start," replied Hinata with Naruto smiling at her.
"Maybe," was all Naruto said, but Hinata grabbed his face with her hands, and made sure he looked right into her eyes.
"Listen to me. Do you remember when we were kids and all the girls at the Academy all wanted to be Sasuke's future wives? How they all fought over him for his clan's prestige? How they were going to be the Head Wife among all the wives he would have to take because of his status as the last Uchiha in Konoha? The only thing they agreed on was that each of them could marry Sasuke without fear of being denied their fantasy of being 'Mrs. Uchiha' despite having to share that title. They went on and on about how one of them was more worthy of the title then the other even though they would have to share it. I was raised in a clan too remember? I know that such a thing would have happened with the Hyuuga Clan being reduce to a handful. Shino and Kiba knew this too with their own clans. You are from a clan as well. One Konoha refused to acknowledge existed despite the fact they were both allies, but you still belong to a clan, and are the last of them all. Even if I wanted to say no to the other women in our lives wanting to be with you, the rules for a clan are absolute, and these women...these Sekirei all love you. Each of them with their own personalities, quirks, habits, and abilities are all different just like we are different from everyone else. But the one thing these women and myself have in common above all things is this...we all love you Naruto-kun. THAT is why I'm not angry or upset that you were intimate with Akitsu and will have to be with the other two in this unique harem you've now acquired," explained Hinata with Naruto smiling at her and his eyes now watering.
"You always did know what to say to me Hinata-chan," whispered Naruto before kissing her.
"It wasn't that hard. I've watched you for years. Seen everything you've done and tried to do. I know you too well," whispered Hinata before kissing him again.
"You were watching me for years?" asked Naruto in fake shock, which earned him a slap to his shoulder, and Hinata hugging him again.
"Baka," whispered Hinata before she laughed and Naruto did too.
"Yeah, but I'm your baka. Yours, Akitsu's, Tsukiumi's, and Kazehana's baka," replied Naruto with the two holding each other.
"Works for me," said Hinata while holding him a little tighter.
Neither of them cared that Kazehana and Tsukiumi were on the roof looking at them.
"That vile ice strumpet had her wedding night! How can my husband choose her first over me?!" protested Tsukiumi with Kazehana drinking some sake she asked Jarvis for despite his warnings about Hinata's rule about having it in the house.
Which was why she was having it on top of the house.
"Will you stop complaining Tsukiumi. Its not like Naruto-kun is going to forget about us. That's not his style," commented Kazehana while Tsukiumi glared at her.
"And what do thee know of my husband's 'style' wench?" demanded Tsukiumi angrily with Kazehana looking at her with slightly cold eyes.
"I know enough that Naruto-kun wouldn't betray those he loves," replied Kazehana with surprising tone of fierceness behind it while Tsukiumi stayed quiet for a moment.
"Does thou think it wrong of me to be jealous of thee and the ice woman? That I should stop being jealous?" asked Tsukiumi in a soft toned voice for once and saw Kazehana thinking for a second.
"It's not wrong to feel a tad jealous I suppose. Given how multiple Sekirei can be winged by a single Ashikabi despite it being rare and if we are excluding forced wingings, its not uncommon for our kind to feel territorial about who has claim to our chosen Ashikabi. I suppose its natural for you to feel upset by Naruto's actions with Akitsu, but considering how she never had a shot at finding her Ashikabi after being discarded, that woman isn't going to let anyone of us take her spot, and will fight us if it means keeping it," replied Kazehana with Tsukiumi looking away from her and recalling how Akitsu nearly tried to kill the busty blonde after Naruto brought the woman home.
"Thou speaks the truth. While I have no doubt my husband will treat us all fairly, it is still difficult to watch him be around you, or the ice woman for fear of him discarding me. I do not wish to have my heart suddenly broken as thou once nearly did by our Ashikabi's hands so soon after being wed to him," replied Tsukiumi with Kazehana giving a gentle smile.
"Then you have nothing to worry about Miss Panty Flash. Our shared husband won't be so cruel as to discard either of us," stated Kazehana confidently while Tsukiumi was once again looking angry.
"Cease calling me Miss Panty Flash! I will not have such a degrading name being used in connection to me thou vile sake drinking wench!" exclaimed Tsukiumi while stomping her foot on the roof and glaring at Kazehana.
"Then you shouldn't wear such loose short skirts that easily reveal your panties to the world," countered Kazehana with a smirk while Tsukiumi was fuming.
"Thou has a lot of nerve to speak to me about short skirts. Yours is shorter then mine!" countered Tsukiumi with Kazehana smirking.
"True, my dress is a bit shorter at the hip when compared to yours, but at least its nice, and tight around the hip area so no one can see what only my Ashikabi can see when he wants to put his hands on me. You on the other hand...well all someone had to do is simply wait for a nice gust of wind to pick up and expose your panties for the world to see. Hence why you are called Miss Panty Flash," Kazehana shot back and Tsukiumi's anger was now physically visible through the water around her along with the busty blonde's hair moving around like it was alive.
"Thou speaks too much and will be silence by my hands," said Tsukiumi, as she prepared herself to launch water at Kazehana, who looked bored, and merely watched the violent tendrils of water form around the blonde woman.
"Ah...enough!" commanded the quiet voice of a now fully dressed Akitsu, as she froze all the water, and made her appearance known to the other two.
"My my, look who's here. How are you feeling Akitsu? A bit sore I take it?" commented Kazehana seeing the now clothed Akitsu walking over to them with a limp and blush now forming on her face.
"Ah...yes," replied Akitsu with her blush not leaving the woman's face, as she had woken up a short time ago to find her Ashikabi was not in the bed, and went looking for him.
"Don't be so embarrassed Akitsu. Hinata-sensei was sore and walked with a limped for days after one of Naruto's feral moods from the previous night. I was so jealous back then when I saw her like that and poor Miya...I think it was because of them she instigated the 'no illicit relations' rule at Maison Izumo," remarked Kazehana with a small chuckle since she along with Miya and Matsu had nearly walked in on the two teachers mating with such a frenzy that made Miya's face go red for over a week!
And it could also explain the reason why Matsu was such a pervert at times.
"Ah...I need more stamina," said Akitsu, as she had been completely overwhelmed by her Ashikabi's dominance, and his passion when they were together.
"That and few techniques of your own that will make Naruto-kun turn into a quivering mess for a change," added Kazehana with Akitsu now blushing further at the idea of her Ashikabi achieving such a level of pleasure using such skill.
"Silence! I shall not hear such perversity be spoken in my presence. I am going inside," declared Tsukiumi, as she descended the roof, and went inside the house.
"So now that Miss Panty Flash has left, tell me Akitsu-chan...just how good was it?" asked Kazehana with her smile becoming mischievous while Akitsu's blushed went from glowing to full blow atomic glow.
"Ah...it was passionate and blissful. Ashikabi-sama is a...stamina freak," replied Akitsu while seeing Kazehana's eyes twinkle further and was enjoying the sight of the ice using Sekirei fidget now.
"Tell me Akitsu...do you know of a popular book series called Icha Icha Paradise?" asked Kazehana with Akitsu frowning slightly in thought.
"Yes. I wanted to read one of the books out loud with Ashikabi-sama, but...he said that such books should not be read out loud," replied Akitsu with confusion in her voice while Kazehana smirked.
"Not surprising given some of the content," replied Kazehana with Akitsu tilting her head slightly.
"Ah...content?" asked Akitsu with Kazehana's smirk increasing.
"Some of those books have certain...erotic scenes in them that are not meant for children to read or have spoken out loud for others to hear," answered Kazehana with Akitsu's eyes widening and an atomic blush was now on her face.
'So that's why he was hesitant to read that book out loud with me,' thought Akitsu with Kazehana never letting the smirk leave her face.
"Personally, I find the erotic scenes in the series to be the best part. Granted the drama, the intrigue, and the romance are big parts too. But deep down I'm all for reading the intense raunchy action Naruto-kun writes in each book," added Kazehana with Akitsu's blush increasing even further.
"Ah...Ashikabi-sama writes them?" asked Akitsu in surprise while mentally reminding herself to find and read every single one in the library.
"He sure does! Its one of the reasons I'm such a big fan of the series," replied Kazehana with Akitsu nodding and then began to walk away to process this information.
'Ah...I need to read more,' thought Akitsu while promising herself to read more books that might "help" in interacting more with her Ashikabi.
All Kazehana could do was smirk.
(Omake-Shikamaru's Woman Problem)
"Naruto! Naruto! I need your help! Hide me!" exclaimed Shikamaru, as he ran through the streets of Konoha, all the way up to the blonde, and began panting heavily.
"What? Why? What did you do?" asked Naruto with Shikamaru giving him a "I didn't do anything" look/glare.
"I didn't do anything. Its those two troublesome Sekirei twins I 'winged' a few days ago. They're driving me nuts and always shooting lightning at me," answered Shikamaru with Naruto raising an eyebrow at him.
"Maybe you deserved it," offered Naruto with Shikamaru's right eyebrow twitching.
"Ha! Ha! Very funny. Seriously, the two are always shocking me whenever I'm around, saying I'm lazy, I should do more then watch clouds, and all that troublesome stuff," said Shikamaru with Naruto shaking his head.
"For a genius with an IQ over 200, you sure are stupid when it comes to women," replied Naruto with Shikamaru's eyebrow having another spasm.
"Naruto...," warned Shikamaru with Naruto letting out another chuckle.
"Oh relax Shikamaru. Those two women just want you to do more then be your lazy good for nothing self. Why not spend time with them and do what they want. You might find that those two being happy means less time being hit by lightning," offered Naruto with Shikamaru thinking it over and letting out a sigh.
"Honestly? Part of me wants to spend time with them, but I find it to be too troublesome, and don't want to do what they want since...well...," replied Shikamaru before he decided to shut his mouth.
"Well what?" asked Naruto curiously.
"You've seen their attire right?" asked Shikamaru since he knew many had.
"Yeah. Kind of look like they are into S&M and they...ooooohhh! They want to do THAT with you and not in a good way that will be to your liking," said Naruto, as he pieced the information together, and saw Shikamaru blushing.
"Yes THAT and to make matters worse...my Mother approves," added Shikamaru since the two bondage dressed twins told his Mother having winging them that they were now in a sense married to her son since he was their "destined one" or something like that.
Nara Yoshino spent the day beating her son with a frying pan, calling him a pervert, and then went to spend the rest of her day "educating" her two new daughter-in-laws on how the women in the Nara Clan ran things.
With an iron stiletto heeled boot to their husband's crotch.
"I take it them shooting lightning at you doesn't hurt? Well...hurt them I mean," replied Naruto with a smirk and Shikamaru was holding back the urge to strangle him.
Just barely.
"No. No it doesn't hurt them at all. If anything, my Mother has given them suggestions on where to aim their lightning at me, and other ideas for when she wants me to...cuddle with them," answered Shikamaru before he let out a shutter knowing what that meant for him.
"Ah! I see. Your Mother wants Grandchildren soon and these two are her ticket to getting them right away by basically telling them to strap you down every chance they get to be knocked up," said Naruto with another shake of his head while Shikamaru nodding.
"I don't know what to do with these troublesome women. One troublesome woman is bad enough in terms of marriage, but twins with powers to shoot lightning at you, and certain places if I'm not careful is even worse. How do I get these two crazy violent women off my back Naruto?" asked Shikamaru before he felt a sense of dread traveling up his spine and turned around to see the twin lightning shooting Sekirei glaring at him.
"Shikamaru! You're coming home with us right now! Its high time you did stuff for us and stopped looking up at clouds in the sky you lazy good for nothing for a Ashikabi," said Hikari angrily with Shikamaru sweating nervously when staring at the two twins.
"Easy. Calm down. I was just talking to Naruto here," explained Shikamaru before turned around...and saw Naruto was NOT there at all.
Just a wooden training dummy with Shikamaru's face crudely drawn on it and a sign with "I'M A BAKA!" written on it.
"There is no one behind you except for that training dummy with your face on it you lazy no good liar," countered Hibiki with Shikamaru's eyebrow twitching almost violently.
'Damn you Naruto!' thought Shikamaru before he tried to think up a plan to get out of this mess.
"That's it! We're going to do what Yoshino-sama suggested. We're strapping you down and making sure you give us our special cuddle time! No more excuses!" exclaimed an angry Hikari, as she moved faster then Shikamaru could react, grabbed his arm, and gave him a very powerful shock to his body that temporarily parallelized him.
"Troublesome woman," mumbled Shikamaru with Hikari giving him a semi-angry look and semi-evil smile that made the fear he felt increase.
"Just for that we're not going to have a safety word and...we are going to be using the toys we got as a gift from your Mother. The one's that we insert into your body to make you scream my dear Ashikabi," said Hikari with Shikamaru's eyes widening in horror while Hibiki helped her sister drag him home.
'NOOOOOOOOOOO! CURSE YOU NARUTO FOR DISTRACTING ME WITH OUR CONVERSATION!' thought Shikamaru since he couldn't exactly scream in anger or fear at this point thanks to being shocked.
Not that it mattered since the screaming out in fear part would come much later in the evening.
"Poor poor Shikamaru. You poor lazy masochist bastard," whispered Naruto to himself from his spot on the roof where he watched everything play out before heading home to his wife Hinata-chan and three loving Sekirei.
(End Omake)
(A/N: YAY! I updated with a super long chapter. I wanted to get this out of the way so I could get things started on the whole bridge escape thing. Hope it met your standards and was a good chapter. As for what will happen to the jerk Yashima had for an Ashikabi now that he's just a dead body...well I will leave that part up to your imagination. Until next time...PEACE!)
