chapter 3
Howl of destiny
Naruto Uzumaki probably the most powerful genin that ever existed, awoke to the sounds of the birds chirping. Another day has started and another mystery to so solve has appeared for two weeks and one day he was granted perculiar new abilities, he has mastered them quite well, but now it was time to understand what they are, and where they came from. Today was that day.
"Alright it's time to crack the case, and find out what are these mysterious new powers came from" naruto declared quietly to himself.
"Question is where to look" He hoped there wouldn't be any more hollows until he found some answers.
Naruto started where he had last encountered the hollows, he first visited the house of the mother and mikuru he searched the entire house from top to bottom, but had come up with nothing and left after honoring the house with a prey. Naruto then returned to the clearing where he met the man, and followed the path the rhino was chasing the man, he soon stumbled upon a rampaged part of the forest.
"It's like a twister hit this part of the woods or something, what could have done this" wondered naruto.
Then as if fate was trying to get on his nerves he sensed a strong and primal spiritual pressure.
"Are you serious".
naruto sighed and followed the spiritual pressure even further into the rampaged forest until he reached a small cliff where he saw a scorpian hollow trying to eat a little boy with brown puffy hair and wearing a yellow shirt and blue jeans. The hollow was clearly a scorpion with a six foot tail with a massive stinger, it's body was five feet wide and thirteen feet tall, the rest of the hollow's body was poisonous purple.
"Jogeki byakurai".
naruto exclaimed as a sharp, yet thin version of byakurai shot at the hollow's tail after naruto stuck out his left arm and slid his palm to the left. The attack hit the hollow's tail as it was wrapped around the boy's body and cut it clean off.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH, my tail who did that, come out and face me you cowardly worm".
The scorpion hollow exclaimed in pain and anger as the boy was freed from the now severed tail and ran away.
"i'm right here hollow, and i'm going to destroy you, bakudo #30 shitotsu sansen" said naruto.
Naruto took the position of bending down; bringing his left leg back and sild his right arm across his chest as his left arm extended toward the hollow, he then stuck out his fingers and pointed them at the hollow. Three sharp pillars of yellow light shot out of his fingers and pinned it to the wall of the cliff as the middle pillar went through it's stomach and the other two pillers went through it's arms.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAH what is this?, a human using kido only a soul reaper can use that art".
"Soul reaper?" naruto thought, he then focused on the hollow
"Now die gekireko" said naruto.
Our hero put both his hands to the sky and a green jewel of energy appeared in the sky, from it's corners four sick light green pillars shot out and raced toward the hollow as it was cut into pieces as the laser pillars all cut it in different places before crossing over similar to a laser light show. The hollow then dispersed into black ash energy as all hollows do when killed.
"That hollow said "soul reaper", i'm sure of it but what is a soul reaper?"naruto asked himself.
"Well i'm not having any luck out here so i guess i better head to the library, at least now that i have a category i could trace it in a dictionary" said naruto as he headed back toward the village and in the direction of the library. Once he applied for a library card he quicly searched for the dictionaries and actually finding them very easily he skimmed the pages to where the S words were and read each word on the page, he knew all the words on the page so he didn't get confused but the term soul reaper was no where in it, he then flipped the pages backward to the R's but no luck there either.
He set the dictionary back in it's original place and began to search through all the other dictionaries in the library but unfortunitly none of them contained the term "soul reaper". As naruto scrolled through the last dictionary a voice from behind spoke to him.
"Naruto!".
He turned around and saw sakura standing behind him.
"what are you doing here naruto and since when do you read books?".sakura asked curiously.
"Hello sakura i just need to look for some information" replied naruto.
"Oh well i could help you if you need" sakura offered.
"That's alright i'm actually done" naruto said putting the dictionary down, he then left.
"Naruto, why are you always distancing yourself from me, are you going through something, why would you not tell me, I thought you trusted me, I don't this" sakura thought worriedly over naruto's despondence.
"I suppose i should have guessed the library wouldn't have any information on anything mentioned by a hollow" naruto admitted as he walked away from the library.
"Now where am i supposed to look?" naruto asked himself.
CRACK,CRACK BOOOOOM
Immediatly a rather large portion of the building naruto was walking next to fell out of place and smashed into the ground debris flew everywhere and a lot of people were startled and coughing having accidently breathed the smoke and some had minor bleeding being hit with some debris. Then to everyone's horror except naruto people were suddenly being lifted of the ground by an invisable force. Naruto knew it was a hollow as the spiritual pressure was right next to him and he could see it. It was dark gray, 12 feet tall; somewhat squatting, had brown hair coming out of it's mask; had a large face, and resembled a frog.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA come to me you juicy little souls you'll be nice and cozy in my stomach HAHAHA".
"Oh no you don't get away from them" naruto commanded.
"Unless you want to end up as my next snack i suggest you scram" the hollow threatened
"I have to get the hollow away from here, but first i need to free those people" thought naruto.
"Bakudo #62 hyaporankan" said naruto from the top of a building who extended his right arm and out of it shot hundreds of light blue needles and struck the hollow in the arms.
"YEEEEAAAAAAAAH" the hollow screamed in pain as it dropped it's victums.
"YOU BASTARD YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THAT" the hollow roared as naruto took the opprotunity to run to a deserted location. Naruto finally made it to an abbandoned part of the village where he knew no one lived, he then stopped running and turned to face the hollow.
"Well looks like you've got nowhere left to run, boy".
"Who said anything about running, now it's just the two of us".
"By the way what's your name junior i like to know the names of my snacks, HAHAHAHA".
"Naruto Uzumaki".
"You can call me shrieker, the hollow that's about to swallow your soul".
"Let's do it hado #31 shakaho".
The small red sphere shot out of naruto's hand and hit shrieker in the face, but as soon as the smoke cleared shrieker was completely unphased.
"Well how about that a soul reaper in a gigai never would have thought the soul society would hire a teenager".
"There's that term again, i need to get answers from him" thought naruto.
"Tell me what's a soul reaper?"
"You've gotta be kidding a human with the powers of a soul reaper, then again your are only a human".
Shrieker the stuck out his tounge which was fairly thin, then it started to ulter some sort of sound wave, shrieker then fired some odd creatures with wings at naruto, he seemed to be controling them with the sound.
"What are those things" naruto thought as he used his ninja skills to dodge them.
"HAHAHA that's right dance soul reaper dance, i like my food to be healthy and fit before i devour them HAHAHAHAHA".
"i'm positive that sound is what's controlling them, i'll stop his attacks then i'll capture him and make him tell me all about soul reapers".
Shrieker then positioned his bat bombs in five different points in the sky and a few on the ground and they all converged on naruto at once as he had jumped into the air to avoid an earlier attack.
"Looks like i'll just half to kill you without eating you, die soul reaper" said shrieker as his bombs were about to hit naruto.
"Bakudo #73 tozansho" said naruto as the upsidedown pyramid surrounded him and shielded him from the bombs, he then jumped at shrieker as the latter tried to launch more bombs at him.
"Wind style rasengan" said naruto as he used the wind from his rasengan to cancell out the sound he then threw the attack at the bombs to detinate them early he then made the cross tiger sign
"Bakudo #99 kin" naruto proclaimed as wood similar to yamato's except stronger came up from the ground and constricted shrieker, he of course tried to break free with some success, but then naruto increased it's power.
''Bakudo #99 part two bankin" said naruto as the wood became thicker and doubbled over shrieker, while also restraining his arms and just like that shrieker was restrained.
"UGHHHHHHHHHHHH L-LET GO OF ME YOU DAMN BASTARD".
"Now then you're going to tell me everything about soul reapers" said naruto calmly.
''THE HELL I WILL LET GO OF ME SO I CAN EAT YOU" shrieker roared.
"Oh i'll let you go as soon as you tell me what i want to know" naruto reasoned.
"*pant,pant* F-FINE, i'll tell you but you better let me go afterwards" shrieker warned.
"I will that's a promise" said naruto.
"Alright here it goes soul reapers are the guardians of the soul society, which is where soul reapers live. They live like a military force there are thirteen squads and many different units for certain tasks each squad has their own barracks,there are many levels of rank which are reffered to as seats the four highest being adjitant,general,lieutenant,and obviously the highest is captain, and they are lead by a head captain who issues commands to all the other soul reapers".
"So they are stationed in this place called soul society right?" asked naruto.
"Yeah, soul reapers have two jobs: to excercise hollows, and to help wholes pass on to soul society with a konso".
"Huh wholes move on to the soul society i thought soul reapers were stationed there" asked naruto confused.
"The soul society is mostly a world where normal spirits live, the soul reapers live in a different part of soul society called the seireitei in the center of soul society".
"Just like the hokage tower, and the head captain is like their hokage" realized naruto.
"Tell me more about konso" said naruto.
"Like i said a konso is a ceremony to pass wholes on to soul society, it is done by placing the butt of the zanpakuto onto the whole's forehead".
"Zanpakuto?" asked naruto.
"The main weapon of soul reapers it's a sword, but not just any sword, zanpakuto are the most powerful swords in exsistance, i should know i've fought many of them. Alright kid i've told you everything about soul reapers NOW LET ME GO".
"Certainly" complied naruto as he undid the spell but once shrieker was free he attacked.
"Hado #58 tenran" said naruto but he wasn't done yet.
"Wind style rasengan". He threw the wind rasengan into the small tornado and created a tornade of wind blades which flew at shrieker who had no chance of evading cutting off his arms, and his tounge.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH, y-you said you'd let me go if i told about SOUL REAPERS" yelled shrieker.
"Yes i did and i kept my promise, i said i would release you, not let you live sorry but you're too dangerous to be left alive you are a hollow, and i can't just let you consume souls as you wish, goodbye i am truely greatful to you for helping me with my research" explained naruto who got ready for the finishing blow.
"YOU BASTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD" screamed shrieker who charged at naruto for one last attack.
"Kongobaku" said naruto calmly as a giant ball of fire came down from the sky, the giant fireball hit shrieker dead on and he was incinerated.
"Well i guess that's it i now know everything i suppose i gained these powers because my spirit energy must have been developong through all my years of training, coupled with the fact that i mastered nature energy must have contributed too, and my recent meditation must have finally brought them out to the surface" realized naruto.
Naruto made his way out of the abandoned part of the village he was once again confronted by sakura who was with kakashi and sai.
"Naruto!, what the hell happened, the villagers are in a panic" said sakura alarmed,
"I don't know, I just arrived here" said naruto.
"Uh huh, you just happened to be passing by when a building crumbles and you saw nothing at all?" asked kakashi suspiciously.
"No nothing at all, I thought there was an attack or something" said naruto calmly
"I see, interesting, Well anyway the trouble seems to have passed and nobody seems to be hurt, alright but make sure to keep an eye out, you can go, we'll handle it from here" kakashi dismissed.
"Goodbye sensei,you too sakura, later sai" said naruto on his way home.
"Sensei what's going on with naruto he's been so distant lately and i ran into him at the library today, which is unusual since naruto doesn't read and he practically left right after i spoke to him, he seemed to be in a hurry to get away from me".
"I don't know sakura, but i think it is unlikely that those buildings just lost those portions of their walls, and if naruto was at the library then something is definietly up" summized kakashi.
"Perhaps naruto is not telling us something" said sai.
"I'm starting to think so sai" said sakura.
As naruto walked home he saw the sun set in the orange sky he liked sunsets as they were his favorite color orange it soothed him as he was frustrated at the moment as he walked by a random building and punched the wall.
"Ugh i don't get it why isn't the soul society doing anything about these hollows, *sigh* well i guess it's up to me i've solved the mystery but i'm gonna have to protect the village on my own, it is going to be difficult, but it will be interesting".
Naruto went home looking forward to a peacful evening he took one last look back and enjoyed the sunset.
