Mnarutodbz "Before I go to the review section I must say to all the people who read this story how sorry I am. It took quite a while before I updated. The new chapter of The Saiyans new adventure took longer than I thought. But I am curious of all the reviews to come and the questions to the characters of course!"

Dante growled "Why am I putting up with this crap!"

Mnarutodbz "Because I say so! Now I leave the talking to Naruto because he will be the one that will answer your reviews for today!"

Naruto looks at the readers "I'm sorry…I was tricked somehow."

Mnarutodbz "No complaining! Or you will eat only vegetables for the next month!"

Naruto sweatdrops "First he takes away my chili but I can't have him take away my pizza and ramen so bring on the reviews!"

Naruto reads the first review and asks "Is the name of this guy anonymous?"

Mnarutodbz sighs "No, it means that someone gave a review who either doesn't have an account or who didn't sign in to an account, just answer it."

Anonymous "Where is Kisame and Kisame was the first Akatsuki member recruited."

Mnarutodbz "I take this one. Kisame will appear later in the story and you're wrong. The Akatsuki was established by Yahiko together with Nagato and Konan. They gained a lot of followers but neither of them was Kisame. He got in the picture much and much later after Yahiko died."

Naruto "Annoying spoiler…anyway next review!"

Grocamol "Why do I feel like this chapter is a chick flick."

Naruto snorts "Oh yeah, shooting off a demon's head is so girly."

Mnarutodbz "I think he is talking about your romantic scene with Haku. Perhaps a simple explanation will do. I used that part to give the relationship between Naruto and Haku some more depth. It gives the people more character and rules out inconsistencies further in the story. I really hate it when people write 'Oh I love you let's make a baby' crap that is OVERUSED."

Naruto sweatdrops "Alright…pretty long answer. Next review!"

Storylover213 "Nice chapter, can't wait for more and for once I don't feel like picking on Dante or Naruto but then again I've always been weird like that."

Naruto drops the reviews because of the shock "Are you pulling my leg? Where is the camera?"

Mnarutodbz "Come on Naruto, I don't think Storylover213 will do anything."

Dante "You do realize we are talking about Storylover213 here…oh I can't wait to tell the people from The Saiyans new adventure about this…they'll be so jealous!"

Mnarutodbz smiles and says "Good luck with that, oh and say Vegeta hi from me."

Dante shudders when he thinks of Vegeta and says "Ehm, next review please!"

Silvdra-zero "Excellent chapter and very subtle when you introduced lady's daughter. Masterfully done plus the romance bit was wonderfully done. I wonder what's going to happen next."

Naruto "Time will only tell but this bastard doesn't tell me anything."

Mnarutodbz "Of course not. If I did that you would already start fighting before the enemy showed itself."

Naruto "Of course not! I am trustworthy! I would never do a thing like that."

Mnarutodbz's face blanked out and he said "Ehm…I created you so I know you would take advantage of that."

Naruto sweatdrops "Hehe, anyway thanks for the positive review. Next one please!"

Kamen Rider Burai "great story needs a little more detail and the characters need more soul. I want to see more devil arms and dante trigger? Where is Vergil? Bring Nero back I wanted him and Naruto to be rivals."

Naruto "More detail? More soul?"

Mnarutodbz "For the readers who didn't read my other story…I let the personality develop. A detailed personality isn't simply there for people to read but it develops over time. And I can't simply bring Nero back…well I could but I won't. There is no more place for him since Vergil is there. Alright Naruto, you can continue if you wish."

Naruto starts to scratch the back of his head "Ehm…I think that's about it…next one."

Kidimaru "Near the end of the chapter when they were just arriving to safety in Wave, you said Zabuza's house instead of Tazuna's. You misspelled Obito as Obita.

Naruto "I know the writer has some misspellings at times but most of the time they are an accident. And the first one was already pointed out…by the way was it Kidimaru or Kidõmaru?"

Mnarutodbz "Sometimes it simply happens…can't help it. Then I am already thinking on the next part of the story and I make simple mistakes like that."

Naruto "Well…nothing more to say here…next!"

naruhina fan "Damn it, I can smell it. Keep Naruto away from the chili! Sucks that Nero died. At least how he died kinda explains how he's able to use Yamato the way he does in DMC4. Okay, since Nero isn't gonna be Naruto's rival, how about Vergil? I would also like to see a funny side to Vergil. Also, about Maya...is she Lady's descendant or reincarnation or relative? Will she be in Naruto's harem? Update soon!"

Naruto looks guilty "I can't help it. I was upset because Mnarutodbz mocked me and I had chili. I don't know how Vergil is and…Naruto reads about the harem part "I'm going to have an F**** harem! SWEET!"

Mnarutodbz snickers when Haku barges into the room "YOU CHEATING BASTARD!"

Naruto jumps in the air "Haku…honey…listen…"

Haku "I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANYTHING ABOUT IT! Mnarutodbz told me everything!"

Mnarutodbz keeps on snickering while Naruto gave him a filthy glare but suddenly Naruto looked like he had an idea "Haku…honey…Mnarutodbz is writing that I am going to have a harem…"

Haku turns to Mnarutodbz and unleashed her killing intent on him "Is that true!"

Mnarutodbz begins to sweat "No…really…well I did…but Naruto requested it…"

Haku seemed to calm down "Well…since I can't figure out who is wrong here I decided to punish you both…ICE SPIKE TIME!"

Suddenly Mnarutodbz and Naruto are hit by many spikes made out of ice and Mnarutodbz says "E..e..enjoy story after the disclaimer."

Naruto "My Kami I hate you Mnarutodbz…"

Two weeks later after the last chapter

Naruto was enjoying a good night sleep. He wasn't able to do so for quite some time because he was having strange dreams most of the time. Somehow it was always connected to a man who was wearing an orange mask.

Too bad for Naruto his sleep didn't last as long as he wanted. He woke up because he heard some noise downstairs. With a growl he got up and mumbled "What the hell is it now!"

He got out of bed and walked downstairs. He went to the room the noise came from and saw Dante decorating the room that would be his new office. Dante looked behind him when he heard Naruto come down and said "Rise and shine sleepyhead!"

Naruto yawned and scratched his head and asked "What time is it?"

Dante "Half past 6."

Naruto sighed "Bastard. I was finally enjoying some good night sleep."

Dante "Still having those nightmares about the guy with the orange mask?"

Naruto nodded "Yeah…except today but then you had to decide to decorate your office."

Dante chuckled "I'm terribly sorry."

Naruto "Yeah right…just as sorry as the time you 'accidently' interfered with a mission from the Order of Light."

Dante chuckled "But still…that look on their faces was something that made it all worthwhile."

Naruto "Oh yeah sure…it was fun until they placed you on their enemy list. It took you a lot of work to get off that blasted thing."

Dante smirked "I didn't do much, I simply defended myself."

Naruto looked around the new office that Dante made and he said "It looks good but have you ever thought about a secretary?"

Dante "No, I always handle the clients myself."

Naruto smirked "That's why I am suggesting it."

Dante "Funny guy aren't ya?"

Naruto "Believe it! You are such an easy target sometimes. By the way, where is Trish? I didn't see her last night, not even when I got home."

Dante "She is out of town for some demon hunting business of her own. Even if she were here you wouldn't notice her when you came in last night because you seemed pre-occupied with your little lady friend."

Naruto growled "What are you? Mr. Spy?"

Dante looked offended "How can you think something like that? It's not my fault that I have sensitive ears and that you have such a loud voice."

Naruto growled "Shut up. I'm going to get some breakfast because now I can't sleep anymore and that while I am having a free day today."

Dante chuckled while Naruto left the room. He made some breakfast and ate it. He did the things he normally did like cleaning up, getting dressed and training. After his training he went back into the house. He just wanted to go upstairs when someone opened the door.

It was an old man. He saw Naruto and asked "Is this the new location of the Devil may cry agency?"

Naruto nodded and said "Follow me. It's to the left."

The old man followed Naruto and entered the office where Dante was in.

Naruto "Hey Dante, I have a customer for you."

Dante "Sure."

The old man sat down while Dante was sitting in his chair while his legs were on the desk. Naruto sat down on the edge of the desk.

Dante "So what do you want?"

The old man smiled and said "You are the man who take…odd jobs right?"

Dante "If the price is right."

The old man said "Well…I live in Kyo village and since recently people are missing."

Dante shrugged "Perhaps they all took a vacation."

The old man "No, those people aren't the kind that takes vacations without leaving a message. We hired some ninja to follow them but they never returned. One week ago we were finally able to find someone but he was so mutilated that we could only recognize him by the ring he always wore."

Dante looked more interested and said "And you are thinking about something…supernatural?"

The old man nodded "Yes, there is no doubt in my mind that it is a demon because no human would be able or twisted enough to mutilate someone as much as the villager that we found."

Dante leaned back and said "And how much money do we get?"

The old man said "We gathered 5000 Ryou."

Dante whistled and turned to Naruto "Well, well Naruto that sounds interesting doesn't it? What do you think?"

Naruto was looking at his nails. He didn't look interested for the entire conversation and he said "I would refuse."

The old man looked shocked and said "But why? We are paying good money to get rid of a demon."

Naruto "Because we don't like to be fooled and your offer is way too low."

The old man looked dumbfounded and said "How do you mean fooled? And why is 5000 Ryou low?"

Naruto "You can drop the act now. The moment I saw you I knew that you are hiding under a genjutsu. Next time don't forget to hide your sealed ring that exposes you as a member of the Order of Light."

The old man looked shocked but then started to laugh "The stories about the two of you are true. Very perceptive Naruto Uzumaki."

Naruto smiled as well "Just some basic skills…Maya."

Dante looked at Naruto "Hmm?"

In the meantime the old man was gone and a beautiful young lady took his place.

Dante "You know her Naruto?"

Naruto "A little bit. Stupid story not worth of telling."

Dante glared at Naruto "Last time you said that a story wasn't worth telling someone told me you took out 2 hordes and a high level demon all by yourself so tell me."

Naruto sighed "Short version? Someone in the village hired the Order to hunt down a demon called Naruto Uzumaki, they found me and I convinced them I was not a demon. After that a real demon appeared, I killed it, end of story."

Maya chuckled "That's one way to say it. But why did you turn down the money?"

Naruto smirked "You came here under a genjutsu that means that you were hired to take out a demon but the demon is too strong to take on alone. You needed some extra help but knowing the Order they already gave the 'appropriate' manpower for the job you can't get it there.. You made a first offer of 5000 Ryou and I guess the Order would receive something of 30 to 40.000 if the demon is killed."

Maya growled a bit "Dammit, I should've tried the letter trick."

Naruto shrugged "A little bit too late for that. By the way where is that big friend of yours that…uhm…"

Maya "His name is…was Obo. He got killed. That's the reason I came here."

Naruto "I'm sorry for your loss. But why didn't you go to the Order with that information?"

Maya got a mad look in her eyes "I DID! But the only thing the leader said was that Obo should've been stronger and that I have to complete the mission on my own with any means necessary."

Dante "And now you are offering us 5000 Ryou from the payment the Order receives…I don't think they would like you after that."

Maya "It isn't the Order's money…it's my own money."

Naruto "Why would you offer your own money to hire Dante?"

Maya "At first this was an ordinary job for me but after that demon killed Obo it became personal. The Order said I had to capture the demon alive but after what he did to Obo…"

Dante "I see where you are going…you don't want to capture it anymore, you want to kill it."

Maya nodded "Yes, I want…no I need to kill it if I ever want to know one moment of peace. I owe that to Obo."

Naruto "You know that revenge is a dangerous motive right? You start to hate one demon and then the next, and the one after that until it never stops. Eventually it will consume you."

Maya "This is something I need to do! So tell me…can I depend on your help?"

Naruto turned towards Dante and asked "Well Dante…what do you think?"

Dante shrugged "Well…I hate the Order but for some reason I like this one. I think I will take the job. What will you do?"

Naruto smirked "I think I will tag along. It's been a while since I've been on a good old demon hunt together with you Dante."

Maya stood up and bowed "Thank you. I will wait at the Konoha gates."

Maya turned around and was ready to walk out of the room but Dante said "Hey lady…"

Maya suddenly froze and Dante said "What kind of weapons do you have on ya?"

Maya turned around and said "Just my knives and my bow and arrow…why?"

Dante "If you want to stand a chance against that demon you will need some better tools. Just wait at the Konoha gates and I'll bring ya something."

Maya nodded "Sure." And she walked out of the house.

Naruto seemed puzzled and said to Dante "Why did she suddenly freeze up? It wasn't like she was stopping because you called her but she actually FROZE, like she was startled or something."

Dante shrugged "Perhaps she thought I would turn down the job at the last second."

Naruto glared at Dante and said "Dante…I know you and I know you are hiding something."

Dante leaned back and said "Well…actually…"

Naruto looked interested at Dante and he continued "Actually…I used your personal bathroom for the big number 2 yesterday."

Naruto looked dumbfounded when Dante started to laugh and jumped out of his seat to leave the room. Dante was already gone when Naruto growled "That bastard is getting more idiotic by the day."

Naruto walked out of the office and went to his room to get prepared. He walked out of the house and saw that Dante was already waiting for him. Naruto saw that Dante was holding something that was wrapped in some sort of casket.

Naruto "What's that?"

Dante looked lazily at Naruto and said "What's what?"

Naruto got annoyed and said "That thing you are holding!"

Dante "Oh this? It's something that belonged to a friend of mine."

Naruto "What's inside the casket?"

Dante "It could be anything."

Naruto "You don't know?"

Dante was shaking his head "Nope. I can't open it. Last time I saw her she said 'It will open when the time is right'."

Naruto sighed "You always have the weirdest friends. They are all so vague!"

Dante "I'm a strange man myself."

Naruto "Anyway…let's go before Maya gets impatient. I want to be home early, preferably before Haku gets home."

Dante "Yeah, yeah, we get home before your cute little girlfriend."

Naruto growled and rushed off to the Konoha gates. Dante smirked and said "Aaahhhh youth, so impatient and so easily offended." And he went the same way as Naruto did.

Shortly after that they arrived at the gates where Maya was waiting. She said "Ah there you are. Wait…what's that?" while she pointed at the casket that Dante was holding.

Dante said "A casket, what does it look like to you?"

Maya "And what's in the casket?"

Dante smirked "A surprise. Let's cut the small talk and tell us what we're dealing with."

Maya "The job was for two demons. The first one is a big brown beast with acid saliva, big horns and black eyes. It has super strength. He is the one that killed Obo."

Dante "I see…and the other?"

Maya was shaking her head "I don't know. The client said that we would recognize him when we would see him. The only information I could get out of the client was that the demon looked human."

Dante "I see, so we're up against a big brown demon and a humanoid demon. The first one should be a piece of cake but the other one could be hard to find."

Naruto "Maya, do you know what the demon is after? Normally higher ranked demons don't come here or attack in the open."

Maya was shaking her head again "I don't know. Until know it seems like he is just on a killing spree."

Dante "Who cares what he wants? We simply track him down and kill him, easy as that."

Naruto "Oh, your feisty today. What's the occasion?"

Dante shrugged "Don't know…something in my blood tells me I'm going to enjoy this little job."

Maya looked at the two "You two are crazy. This isn't a fun cruise but serious business. You could get killed!"

Dante "Not really. And just for the record…I don't just like killing demons…I REALLY like it and I love it even more when the demon is strong."

Maya looked helpless "What have I done…I hired a bunch of lunatics."

Naruto "Correction; a bunch of skillful lunatics."

Maya "Let's just get going!"

Dante nodded "Let's go!" and he rushed off, but a moment he returned and with a deadpanned face he asked "What way is Kyo village?"

Naruto's face blanked out and he said with a monotone voice "To the west from here."

Dante "Right…let's go!" and he rushed off again.

Maya looked deadpanned as Dante ran and she asked "Is he always like that?"

Naruto "Only when he is in a playful mood. Most of the time he reacts very bored. I don't know which one is worse."

Maya "I'm sorry for dragging you into this."

Naruto "No problem…I'm getting paid anyway. Now let's go before we lose track of Dante."

Maya nodded and they both ran to the west…

Somewhere else in Konoha

The Hokage was sitting behind his desk and looked serious to the group in front of him. It was squad seven that consisted of Kurenai Yuuhi, Sakura Haruno, Hinata Hyuuga, Sasuke Uchiha and Kiba Inuzuka.

Kurenai "You summoned us lord Hokage?"

The hokage nodded "Yes. We received a letter yesterday and I am sending you on a mission."

Kurenai "What letter?"

The hokage gave the letter to Kurenai and she read it out loud.

Village of Konoha,

Since recently people are disappearing from Kyo village. I discovered this is the work of a demon. I found his hide-out and most of the kidnapped villagers are still alive. I won't ask you to exterminate the demon because I will do that myself but I can't risk it that the demon will use the villagers as hostages.

I would like to hire some ninja to free the abducted villagers when I am fighting the demon. The Order of Light is also involved somehow but I don't think they will consider the villagers safety.

Come to the big hanging vine that grows near the stream that separates the village to meet me and discuss the plan.

Slayer.

Kurenai frowned when she saw the one who send the letter "Slayer?"

The hokage nodded "Yes, Slayer. The man who hunts demon for fun."

Kurenai "And the fact that we are here means that you accepted the mission."

The hokage nodded again "Indeed. Slayer once eliminated demons that were close to our village and it's time to repay our debt and you don't have to fight the demon, just free the abducted villagers and protect them while Slayer takes care of the demon."

Kurenai "Do you know how this Slayer looks like?"

The hokage was shaking his head "No one does. Most of the time he is concealing his face by the means of a robe."

Kurenai "Why didn't you ask Dante or Naruto? It's their specialty after all."

The hokage sighed and said "We tried but they already left on a mission. You people are the ones for the job. Kiba's sense of smell can locate missing villagers, Sasuke's sharingan and Hinata's Byakugan can recognize danger immediately and in case something goes wrong you can also resort to genjutsu Kurenai."

Kurenai "I see. Guess we have no choice. Are you ready team 7?"

Everyone nodded and they suddenly disappeared. The Hokage put his pipe in his mouth and thought I hope I did the right thing. Why did Dante have to be on a mission at this time?

With Naruto, Dante and Maya

Naruto and Maya finally caught up with Dante. They were running and they were making good time. Suddenly they stopped when they saw a traveling party.

Dante looked at the group and said "Maya…I thought you said that the Order didn't want to send any more people to Kyo village?"

Maya looked surprised and said "They did!" she turned to the man who looked like he was the leader of the group and asked "What is the meaning of this?"

The leader of the group was a big bulky man covered with scars that proved that he was an experienced fighter. He had two weapons on his back, a big sword and a crossbow.

He smirked and said "The Order was informed about what you planned to do so they send us to Kyo village for a stage 3 procedure."

Maya was shocked and said "Stage 3! It's just one demon!"

Naruto "What's a stage 3?"

Maya glared at the group while she answered "Stage 3 is mostly used when a village is infected with demons. It's also called PISE."

Naruto "PISE?"

Maya "Purge, Isolate, Select and Eliminate. It means that they kill most of the villagers before they isolate people into groups and then select the people who are demons and then eliminates them. It's an extreme measure that's not to be used lightly."

Dante "And yet the Order proves how incompetent they are."

The big man said "You can say all that you want but we are still going to Kyo village. But we also received another order."

Maya "And that is?"

The big man smirked evilly and said "To kill Maya Ateme on sight for treason and using the money that belongs to the Order for unauthorized expenses."

Maya "What!" and while she was saying that the big man attacked. Maya was caught off guard and didn't have any time to defend herself. The big man grabbed his sword and thrusts it towards Maya. She closed her eyes and she heard the sound of metal clashing with metal.

She opened her eyes and she saw Dante standing in front of her. He blocked the big man's strike with Rebellion in one hand while he was holding his gun in his other hand.

The eyes of the big man widened and said "So fast!"

Dante looked at the big man with ice cold eyes and he said "You are not killing my client and you are not 'purging' today!"

The big man said "Says who?"

Dante "I say so. You have two options, one of them is listening to me and return to the Order headquarter. That would be recommendable for your personal wellbeing."

The big man said "And what's the second option?"

Dante "With the second option you will also return to the Order headquarter…in a small box."

The big man started to sweat when he looked in Dante cold blue eyes. He lowered his sword and said "Come on boys, let's head back. We will get Maya later."

Naruto "Good luck with that but before you will be able to lay a hand on her you are already dead."

The big man "Who the hell are you guys!"

Dante "Our names are not important."

The big man looked at Dante but someone else stepped forward and said "I know you…you're the legendary devil hunter called Dante! And that blond kid must be the one that has been traveling with him the last few years!"

The big man growled "Dante eh? I heard about you. So you interfered with Order business once again."

Dante smirked "That's what I like to do. We must really go now but say this to your 'precious' leaders…if I see or hear about a stage 3 or PISE I will start to hunt the Order and you will all die slowly…one…by…one. Understand?"

The big man was swallowing something away and said "Crystal clear." And he turned to the group "move out!"

The group marched away. Dante turned to Maya "Are you alright?"

Maya was looking at something in the distance. It looked like her mind was absent. That the Order ordered her death shocked her a lot.

Naruto laid his hand on her shoulder "Maya."

Maya started to shake her head "Sorry…I was thinking. I'm fine, let's keep moving."

She started to walk. Naruto wanted to say something but Dante placed his hand on his shoulder and he was shaking his head and he said "This isn't the time, let her think first."

Naruto nodded and started to walk as well…

With squad 7

Squad 7 was running to get to Kyo village as fast as they could.

Kiba started to sniff. Sasuke looked at it and said "Do you smell something?"

Kiba "Yes. I smell Naruto."

Sasuke "Is he here?"

Kiba was shaking his head "No, he simply passed this way."

Hinata "D-d-do you t-think they are g-going to t-the same place a-as us?"

Sakura "Who cares about him? Why would he go to a demon? He isn't half as strong as Sasuke is."

Sasuke "Sakura…"

Sakura "Yes Sasuke?"

Sasuke "If you don't have anything to say and can only talk nonsense then please keep that mouth of yours shut…it's annoying me."

Sakura got a disappointed look on her face but the rest didn't care because Sasuke had a point. Kurenai stopped and ordered the genin to stop as well.

Sakura "What is it Kurenai sensei?"

Kurenai was looking at the ground "I see traces. There were three people standing here. Looking at the footprints I would say two males and one female."

Sakura "How do you know that!"

Kurenai smiled "Basic tracking skills Sakura. Women normally have smaller feet and usually weigh less than men. It seems the three were standing here about 2 hours ago."

Sakura "Wait…you can see at footprints how long it was ago when the people were here?"

Kurenai "Of course not…I'm looking at the grass. When someone is stepping on grass it bends. It takes grass three hours to go back to its normal composure."

Sakura "Amazing!"

Sasuke "It seems that they collided with another group. I see another set of footprints…7 in total with one heavy man in front. It seems one of the three protected the other according to the way the footprints go."

Kurenai "Very observant Sasuke."

Sasuke "No one is injured so it means the smaller group must have intimidated the bigger group and they left without a fight. Kiba…can you smell if there are any familiar people here?"

Kiba "Sure." And Kiba bended more to the grass and started to sniff. Finally he got up and said "Yep…that's Naruto alright. There is no mistake about it."

Sasuke "But what do those other traces mean?"

Kurenai seemed to think but suddenly her face cleared up "I think Naruto and the ones he is travelling with crossed roads with some aggressive travelers."

Sasuke "That would be the case. If I look closely at the footprints of Naruto he is heading west…the same way as we are going."

Kiba "You think Naruto knows that Slayer guy and came to his aid?"

Sasuke "Everything is possible with Naruto. The only thing we can do now is keep going on and complete this mission."

Kurenai "I totally agree with you Sasuke…let's go."

With Naruto, Dante and Maya

The three finally arrived at Kyo village. Maya wanted to go after the demon immediately but Dante said they should start by resting in the village and stock up just to be sure.

The three looked around and only saw the houses and some dust that was swirled up by the wind. No one was on the streets.

Naruto "Where is everyone?"

Maya "I don't know. Last time I was here there were people walking on these streets."

Suddenly a window opened and the three could see the face of an older man "Strangers? Here? Oh boy did you people pick a bad time to visit Kyo village."

Naruto "and why is that sir?"

The old man said "Since yesterday small grey demons wander these streets. They are taking away people and they will never be heard of again!"

Dante "Small and grey demons? I guess they are foot soldiers."

Naruto "But it doesn't make sense. Normally foot soldiers kill on sight so why are the abducting people?"

Dante "That's why we're here to find it out."

Maya turned to the old man "Did any of you called in help from the Order of Light?"

The old man was shaking his head "No. I told you people this happened since yesterday and everybody who is left is too scared to run for help."

Maya "So the Order really wanted to perform a stage 3 for only one demon."

The old man asked "What a stage…"

While the man was talking an inhuman scream was heard around the village. The old man looked scared and cried out "They're coming! Run if you value your lives!" and the old man closed the window.

The three looked at the place where the scream came from and they saw a bunch of smaller demons running around the corner. Naruto quirked his eyebrow and said "Run? Just when things are starting to get interesting?"

Dante grabbed Rebellion and said "Let's make quick work out of these foot soldiers Naruto."

Naruto looked at Dante "Body count game?"

Dante smirked "Hell yeah!"

Naruto got Repent of his back and said "Let's see if you can keep up old-timer."

Dante growled "How many times did I tell you not to call me that squirt!"

Naruto "About as many times that I told you not to call me squirt!"

Maya got her knives "You two are impossible!"

The demon horde was near the group and they burst into action. While they were fighting, Maya could clearly hear Naruto and Dante counting when they killed a demon. The sound of the fight was heard all over the small village. The sound of metal through flesh and the hard noise of gunfire were the ingredients of the deadly serenade Naruto, Dante and Maya performed.

It took around 15 minutes before all demons were dead. Naruto placed his sword on his back and asked "Body count?"

Dante smirked and said "13."

Naruto grinded his teeth "Bastard…we tied again!"

Maya sighed "As I said before…lunatics…but I gotta say you were right Naruto…very skillful lunatics." And while she was saying this she thought they're both amazing. I couldn't keep up with their speed and skill and it still looks like they even haven't warmed-up yet.

Suddenly the old man opened his window again and looked amazed when he saw the dead bodies of the foot soldiers. He looked at the three and said "What are you people? Angels?"

Naruto smiled and started to shake his head "No, calling us angels would be very wrong. We're demon hunters."

The old man looked at them and said "and did you come here to get rid of our nemesis?"

Dante "That's the big idea. Do you or someone else in the village know where his lair is?"

The old man seemed to think "The demon has been spotted many times near the mountains north from here."

Dante looked at his two companions "Then that's the place we will start our search." Naruto and Maya nodded and they went north.

In the alley near the place where Dante, Naruto and Maya fought a man was looking at the group that went to the north. With a soft voice he said "So they are here." And he walked away.

With squad 7

Squad 7 finally arrived at Kyo village. They walked through the main street and they saw a group of people talking to each other. The seemed excited and Kurenai decided to see what the fuss was about.

She saw an old man who said "No really I'm telling you…those three people eliminated that demonic horde and they didn't even break a sweat! Two of them were children!"

Another man said "You're getting senile old man. There is no way that normal people have a chance against those nasty beasts! And show me proof! Where are the bodies?"

The old man looked helpless and said "I don't know. I saw them lying there and the next second smoke came out of them and they dissolved."

The group continued talking but Kurenai already heard enough. She walked back to the group and said "It seems Naruto was here but he moved on."

Sasuke "Could it be he and we have the same goal?"

Kurenai "Well…it could be possible only it would be a big coincidence."

Kiba sniffed around and said "According to the smell he was he around a half an hour ago."

Kurenai "Don't forget that we aren't here to serve as back-up for Naruto. If he wants to hunt demons in his own free time he is free to do so but we are on a mission."

Kurenai turned to Hinata and asked "Hinata, can you locate the rendezvous point with your Byakugan?"

Hinata nodded and activated her Byakugan. She looked around and said "I-its 50 meters f-from here, t-to the west."

Kurenai "Good work Hinata. Alright squad…let's meet our employer." And they went to the designated area.

When they arrived they saw no one. Kurenai looked around and said "Are we early?"

Suddenly she heard a voice who said "No…you're just in time." And squad 7 could see someone walking from behind the tree. The person was wearing a blue robe with a hood on it that covered his face completely.

Kurenai "You're Slayer I presume?"

Slayer "That is correct."

Kurenai "We are the ninja from Konoha you requested."

Slayer "I know or else you wouldn't be here."

Kurenai sweatdropped a little and said "Ehm…right. So what's the plan?"

Slayer said "In the northern mountains there is a cave. The demon we are hunting chose it as his lair. When we arrive he would sense us immediately. I will use that to lure him to me so that you guys can make your move when I am fighting the demon. Your only concern is the people that are in the cave and nothing else."

Kurenai nodded and said "You think you can beat it?"

Slayer let out a soft chuckle and said "Don't worry about me. I'm quite capable if I say so myself. There is only one thing I'm worrying about."

Kurenai "And what is that?"

Slayer "Today I saw three people killing a pretty big horde of demonic foot soldiers. After that they left to the north and it could be that they would try to take on the demon themselves. This could interrupt our plan."

Kurenai "We know those three. They could help you with killing the demon."

Slayer "Guess I have no choice but to trust you on that."

Kurenai "So where are we going now?"

Slayer "We are going to the north, to the demon's lair…"

With Naruto, Dante and Maya

The three were walking to the north. Slowly but surely the beautiful naturel environment where Kyo village was build made place for a cold and barren sight. There were only dead trees and soil where no grass could grow as far as the eye could see.

Maya looked around and said "Can you imagine that just a few weeks ago this area was filled with beautiful flowers and mighty trees?"

Dante "That would be the influence of the demon."

Maya "What do you mean?"

Dante "When demons are in a certain area for a long time the environment gets corrupted. With their presence alone they could turn the most beautiful place into a barren wasteland. But before that happens it takes a lot of time."

Maya "Why does it happen?"

Dante "Demons have a certain aura that envelops their entire being. For humans it's undetectable but for nature it's like a poison. After a while nature withers. It also has effects on humans if the demon lives close enough. People who don't have enough resistance to the influence give in to their bad habits more easily."

Maya "You know a lot about demons Dante. I've read a lot of books about demons. About their levels, their attributes and so on but I've never read that before. How can it be that you know this?"

Dante "Personal experience. I've been hunting demons for quite some time now. They've always been around but they always operated in the shadows until a few years ago."

Naruto "We're getting close so I advise we keep our conversations to a minimum."

Dante and Maya nodded. Suddenly Naruto and Dante stopped and they both looked back from the way they came from. Maya noticed it and looked at the same direction but she didn't see, hear or feel anything.

She whispered softly "Is something the matter?"

Naruto shaked his head and said "I'm not sure. I feel…something but I can't exactly tell what."

Dante looked intensively but he didn't say anything. He whispered at the same volume "Let's go on. Remember the plan Naruto?"

Naruto nodded and whispered "Lure the demon to us, fight it head on and remove the fight as far from the cave as we can and retrieve the villagers after we defeated the demon."

Dante nodded "Exactly. It's time to do this thing."

They continued on their path and it didn't take long before they were standing in front of the cave where the demon has its lair. Dante took out one of his guns and shot a few round in the air. Soon after that a ferocious roar was heard in the area and the demon came out of the cave.

The cave was around 7 feet high and the demon barely fit through the entrance. It was brown with some kind of slimy substance around its body, black eyes and some kind of yellow saliva was coming out of his mouth. A drop touched the ground and the group could hear a hissing sound and saw that smoke came off the ground.

The demon roared once again and said with a hard voice that could be heard from a mile away yelled "Who dares to disturb Xenoxlas!"

Dante "I dare to do so you ugly bastard!"

The big demon looked at Dante and said "You pitiful human dare to mock Xenoxlas? Xenoxlas will kill you!"

Xenoxlas's head went back a little and spat towards the group. Dante, Naruto and Maya immediately jumped away to avoid the deadly acid saliva. Dante came down with a big smirk on his face and he said "Nice try…too bad your aim sucks."

The demon roared and ran towards Dante. He cocked his fist back for a powerful strike. The giant fist rushed towards Dante, who jumped away at the last second. A loud 'boom' sound was heard and a huge crater was on the place where Dante stood a few seconds ago.

Dante stood a little bit away from the demon and he whistled "I see someone ate his veggies."

Xenoxlas turned his head towards Dante and yelled "STOP MOCKING XENOXLAS!"

Naruto smirked and said "He doesn't have much of a choice when he sees your ugly mug!"

The demon looked angry at Naruto and spat some saliva to him, that Naruto easily avoided by jumping away at high speed. The demon's focus was aimed at Naruto and Dante took his chance to do some damage to the demon. He was swinging his sword and hit Xenoxlas but it seemed to have almost no effect at all.

Dante "Dammit. Naruto…that bastard has a skin like an elephant!"

Naruto, who was busy with avoiding Xenoxlas said while he was dodging "Got it!"

Xenoxlas wanted to spit again but suddenly he was screaming in pain when an arrow pierced through his arm. Naruto looked at Maya who was holding her bow and she shrugged and said "Enchanted arrows. It seems he is pretty weak against it."

Dante joined Naruto and said "Perhaps it's time for a different strategy. This demon isn't the pushover I thought he would be."

Naruto "Well…he is pretty slow but he is very tough. It really sucks that he can attack on short and medium range."

Dante "Yeah it is. He is weak against the enchanted arrows that Maya possess."

Naruto "Double team with supporting member?"

Dante "That would be the best strategy."

Naruto "Let's do it. Let's show this bastard what happens with demons that stay here!"

Maya jumped back while Naruto and Dante rushed towards Xenoxlas. While they were running they were avoiding the acid that Xenoxlas spat at them. Naruto was swinging Repent to Xenoxlas's right side. Xenoxlas threw a punch at Naruto's direction but Naruto quickly avoided it while Dante hit Xenoxlas painfully on the left side.

Xenoxlas turned to Dante but was suddenly hit by Naruto. Xenoxlas immediately countered but before his fist reached Naruto, he was hit by Maya's arrow.

The group did this trick a couple of times. Xenoxlas was defenseless from it and he knew it. He was hurting all over while his black/blue blood was coming out of several wounds. Merely by using his instincts he did something unexpected.

He roared and let out explosive energy that ravished the area around him. Both Naruto and Dante were send flying by the shockwave.

Maya ran towards Dante without looking at the demon. She was so busy with Dante's wellbeing that she neglected her own safety. She was with him and she saw that Dante had his eyes closed.

Maya "Don't die on me now bastard WAKE UP!" and she slapped him in the face. Dante quickly opened his eyes but Xenoxlas was already on the move and it was too late for them to avoid his giant fist.

For Maya time seemed to stop. She looked around and saw Xenoxlas standing still and Dante as well. The entire area looked like it was grey. The only thing that held its original color was the small casket that Dante was carrying around.

It seemed to call her. There wasn't an actual voice but Maya could feel it in every cell of her body. She approached the casket and when she reached for it the casket started to crack. At the time the casket was totally destroyed time seemed to go on again.

Moving on nothing more than instincts Maya got the strange big device that was inside of the casket and aimed it at the big demon. Her finger pulled the trigger and something big came out of the barrel. It rushed at Xenoxlas at high speeds and when it connected the projectile exploded and Xenoxlas was send flying.

Dante looked at Maya and put the thumbs up. If it wasn't for her Xenoxlas would have hit him pretty hard.

Although the projectile did some damage Xenoxlas wasn't beaten. Naruto came to Dante and Dante growled "Dammit! What does it takes to kill this oversized bastard!"

Naruto "I don't know. Perhaps it's time for a little bit of speed." He put Repent on his back and got Yamato. He got in a fighting stance but Naruto suddenly stopped and looked confused.

Dante "What's the matter Naruto?"

Naruto "I don't know…it seems like Yamato is…resonating."

Dante "That's strange. It never did that before!"

Naruto "I don't know why but I feel like I can't attack that ugly bastard with Yamato…it feels like it's a bit reluctant."

Suddenly Dante, Naruto and Maya saw a shadow jumping up towards Xenoxlas and Yamato flew out of Naruto's hand towards the shadow. The moment the shadow and Yamato connect the shadow disappeared and they could only hear the sound of steel piercing through flesh. The group saw that the arm of Xenoxlas was cut off and he was screaming in pain.

Dante smiled and said "It's been a while since I last saw you…Virge."

Maya and Naruto looked behind them and saw a person who was dressed in a blue robe while he was holding Yamato. The person removed the hood. He looked exactly like Dante, only his expression and his hairstyle was different.

The man growled and said "I told you never to call me that."

Maya "Dante…who the hell is that!"

Dante "Oh sorry. Let me present you my twin brother…Vergil."

Maya rolled her eyes "There are two of them? My Kami nature is cruel!"

Vergil chuckled and said "It seems you know my brother a little. By the way Dante, why did you give Yamato to some kid?"

Dante shrugged and said "That kid is pretty good in fighting. I trained him and after a while I gave it as a present since you never come to visit me."

Vergil growled "I was busy."

Dante wanted to make a snappy comeback but Xenoxlas roared and Dante said "I almost forgot about him."

Vergil "I thought you guys already killed that thing. It's only a brown giant."

Naruto "He is pretty tough."

Vergil "That's because you guys are attacking the parts of his body that are strong. The best way to eliminate that kind of demon is by stabbing a sword in his third vertebrae."

Dante "His third WHAT!"

Naruto "Didn't you ever read something about anatomy? Even I know that."

Dante "I'm sorry…I'm fighting those ugly things to make sure little pipsqueaks like you CAN learn!"

Vergil "As much as I hate to interfere in your little fight…don't you think we should dodge that big fist that's heading towards us?"

Dante and Naruto looked up and barely dodged the big fist. Dante pulled out his guns in mid-air and showered Xenoxlas with bullets. Xenoxlas did what Dante wanted him to do. Xenoxlas turned towards Dante and that action allowed Vergil to cut his ligaments. Xenoxlas got down on his knees and Naruto jumped up and put Repent just below Xenoxlas's neck. Xenoxlas screamed and totally collapsed.

Naruto removed Repent and the body of the big demon started to dissolve immediately. Dante put Ebony and Ivory back in their holsters. He smiled and said "That was some old school teamwork."

Vergil nodded and said "Agreed."

Vergil looked at Naruto and seemed to concentrate on him. Naruto looked back at him and in a flash he saw what Vergil looked like in his devil trigger. Vergil saw the same thing in Naruto.

Vergil quirked his eyebrow and said "Dante…do you know…"

Dante quickly interrupted Vergil and said "I know" and his eyes quickly looked at the direction Maya was at "But this is not the time to talk about it."

Vergil snorted and turned to Naruto "And what is your name?"

Naruto "My name is Naruto Uzumaki."

Vergil held out Yamato so that Naruto could take it back but Naruto didn't accept it "It was yours to begin with. I could feel Yamato was waiting for you for a long time and its better in your hands than in mine."

Vergil nodded and said "Thanks." and Dante said "So Vergil, do you feel like going with us for a while? There is enough to do nowadays and in Konoha we have good contacts so that we know when a demon attack occurs."

Vergil shrugged "Fine. It's not like I have any other place to go."

Naruto "Have you been living outside this entire time?"

Vergil "Sometimes. If I am in a village I sleep at a hotel."

Maya "Sorry to disturb your conversation but Dante…can you tell me what this is?" and she held up the device that came out of the casket.

Dante "It's something we called a bazooka. It belonged to a friend of mine and she placed it in a casket that couldn't be opened. She said to me 'it will only open at the right time by the right person'."

Maya looked confused and Vergil looked at that thing and said "Isn't that Kalina-ann? The bazooka that was used by Lady?"

Dante nodded "Yep indeed. And look closely at Maya."

Vergil looked at Maya but after a while he was shaking his head "I don't know what you mean."

Dante sighed "Look at her eyes Virge!"

Vergil looked at Maya again and said "Now that you mention it…"

Maya got annoyed and screamed "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!"

Dante "The woman we are talking about. She was the only one that could wield Kalina-ann. She was a regular person although she excelled at demon hunting but her most outstanding feature was that she had two different colored eyes and one of them was red."

Maya "Like mine…which means…"

Vergil nodded "Those things are inheritable dominant which suggest a most likely possibility that Lady and you are relatives."

Dante "Vergil, I never told you this but Lady gave me the casket when she was almost giving birth to a girl around 17 years ago…"

Maya "But I AM 17! So you're saying that…"

Dante "Lady is your mother."

Maya breathed heavily and said "So let me get this straight. You two knew my mother who left this…bazooka for me. She hunted demons for a living. Is she still alive?"

Dante started to shake his head and said "I'm sorry. The last time I saw her she gave me Kalina-Ann, said a few words to me and left."

Maya "Is she the reason that I have…strange powers?"

Dante "No. Your mother was a lot of things but she didn't have any special powers. Those powers you possess you inherited from your father."

Maya "Honestly Dante tell me…what was he?"

Dante looked Maya straight in the eye and said "Your father was…well…I don't really know. He wasn't a demon nor a devil. That's all that I can say."

Maya wanted to ask further but suddenly a group of Konoha ninja appeared. Naruto saw them and said "Hey Sasuke! I didn't think you would be here!"

Sasuke smirked "I think that our employer suggested that you needed a babysitter."

Naruto snorted "Yeah right…by the way where were you when the fun began? Hiding?"

Sasuke growled "No, our employer orders. When you were fighting that demon we had to free the villagers he had trapped in the cave."

Naruto seemed to think "Now that you mention it…I'm wondering why he captured all those people."

Dante "Perhaps he was gathering a supply so that he wouldn't run short on food during critical times."

Naruto "No. You know as well as I that demons like their meals as fresh as possible."

Vergil "What does it matter now? We can't ask him and even if he was alive he didn't seemed like the talkative type to me."

Naruto shrugged "Suppose you're right. Bummer."

Kurenai stepped forward "And why are you here?"

Naruto pointed at Maya "She hired us so we are here for the same reason as you guys."

Kurenai "But all ninja missions go straight through the Hokage."

Dante "I'm not a ninja and we took the job on behalf of the Devil may cry agency."

Kurenai "So you and Naruto acted on your own? Why?"

Dante shrugged "It's my job."

Naruto replied at the same time "I need the money."

Dante turned to Vergil "Say, since when do you have the money to hire ninja?"

Vergil growled a bit "I didn't have an identity nor did I have a living space so I've been working as a freelance demon hunter for quite some time now."

Dante "Really? Did you earn a lot?"

Vergil "It's none of your business."

Dante "Aw Virge come on! Just a little peek in your bank account."

Vergil crossed his arms "I said no."

Kurenai "Shall we continue this kind of conversations back in the village? We have a bunch of people to escort."

Naruto turned around and saw around 20 people. Naruto nodded and they went to the village. The way back took a lot more time than the way to the demon's lair because the villagers were quite weak from the imprisonment and there were quite a lot of them.

Finally they arrived at Kyo village only to see flames coming out of the houses. Half the village was turned into ruins.

Kurenai "What! Another demon attack?"

Naruto growled "Yeah…the worst kind of demon."

Kurenai looked confused "What do you mean?"

Dante "It's the 'almighty' and 'righteous' Order of Light. Bastards, they still continued with the thing they wanted to do."

Kurenai "How do you know?"

Vergil "I and Dante have the ability to sense demons when we are close enough and we don't feel a demonic presence at the moment which means that there are no demons in the village. And perhaps the fact that we saw a man in the distance who was wearing a full Order of Light armor."

Maya "This is terrible. If I knew the Order would do these kind of things…"

Naruto "There is no point complaining about it. I say we save what we can."

Dante smirked "Now you're talking. I'm game. What about you Vergil?"

Vergil "I hate to use my skills on humans but in this case I'll make an exception."

Sasuke "Hey don't count us out yet!"

Kurenai "Sasuke you are under MY supervision and you know I hate it when people like you make rushed decisions!"

Sasuke "But Kurenai-sensei…we can't let Naruto, Dante and Slayer fight those guys alone!"

Dante quirked an eyebrow and Vergil said "Just a nickname people gave me." And Vergil turned towards the ninja and said "My true name is Vergil."

Kurenai "And for the record Sasuke we can only act on the employers orders!"

While she was speaking Kurenai was looking at Vergil who stood there with an expressionless face and he said "Do what you want, just don't get in our way."

Kurenai "Then it's settled. Hinata and Sakura, you two stay here to guard the villagers. If anyone comes here take him out."

Sakura "But why do we have to stay behind! I want to go along with Sasuke!"

Kurenai "Because I say so. Listen to your commanding jonin."

Sakura backed-off a little bit and softly said "Yes."

Naruto looked at the scene and whispered to Sasuke "What's that all about?"

Sasuke whispered back "Kurenai is very protective of Hinata and Hinata is a little bit sensitive. Sakura only have book knowledge and it seems that she can't focus when she is around me. It's just a preventive measure."

Dante glared at the two boys and said "Are you two done whispering? Then let's go."

The group rushed towards Kyo village while they were only leaving Sakura and Hinata behind. A minute later the group was in Kyo village and they saw a group standing there…it was the same group Dante, Naruto and Maya met earlier!

The leader said "Look here boys, the traitor Maya has returned with even a bigger group of bodyguards."

Maya "Borgo stop this! You are just slaughtering people!"

Borgo laughed and crossed his arms "This pathetic village is infected with demons and to be sure the Order told us to purge it. We even got additional manpower to do so!"

Maya "But we took care of the demons!"

Borgo "So you say. But you know just as well as I that demons are like cockroaches. Once you think you got them all you find them later with even more companions.

Dante looked mad at the group who started to smirk. He glanced to Kurenai and said "Kurenai, can you look in the village and see if you can help them."

Kurenai looked confused "But what about you?"

Dante "We will manage. These guys don't even stand above chunin level so they won't pose a problem. Take that guy with dog with you."

Kiba looked offended and said "That 'guy' has a name you know!"

Dante "Details, details. Anyway perhaps his dog can sniff up people who are in danger or people who are injured."

Kurenai nodded "Fine. Just look after Sasuke. He can be impulsive sometimes."

Dante glared at the group "Got it. Now go!"

Kurenai and Kiba ran the other way but apparently one of the guys of the Order didn't agreed and tried to run after them. He had to stop when Dante started to shoot at him. The bullets went into the ground just in front of his feet.

Dante "I said we will take you on. You will go down with your comrades."

Everyone got into a battle position and Borgo quirked an eyebrow and said "Do you really intend to raise arms against the Order Maya?"

Maya "If I knew the Order was capable of this kind of things I would've raised my weapons against them much earlier."

Borgo got his big broadsword and said "You guys will by good examples to let people know what happens when they oppose the Order. Guys…ATTACK!"

The group of 7 from the Order of Light rushed towards the 5 people who opposed them. They came into a dreadful clash. Although the Order had the advantage in numbers, it was the defending group who proved that they were superior.

The only one who showed some true fighting skills was their leader, Borgo. While he was fighting the other people of his group were too anxious, too wild and they didn't think about their actions.

Their fighting style, if you could call it a fighting style, was good against small demons but not against warriors. One of the people from the Order tried to pierce Sasuke with his sword but Sasuke easily dodged every attack. The man thrusts his sword forward but Sasuke easily stepped aside. The man looked at Sasuke and saw the sharingan.

He suddenly stepped back and that gave Sasuke time to form a hand sign and he cried out Fire style: Fireball jutsu! And the man was hit by the fireball Sasuke casted and fell unconscious because of the pain.

Slowly but surely the group that defended the village drove the remaining people from the Order of light together.

Naruto said "Guys, step back a bit. I'm going to end this!"

He made a few strange hand signs and in his mind he cried out Devil art: wind scythe barrier. Suddenly a blue colored barrier appeared around the group from the Order of Light. One of them touched the wall and screamed out in pain. He got a very ugly cut in his hand.

Naruto smirked "Try what you want but you can't get out of this one. The walls are made out of wind that's so thin that it can cut off your hand."

Sasuke looked at Naruto and thought That's a great jutsu. But how is it possible for him to do that? I've heard about wind jutsu's before but to make wind so thin that it can cut through objects with the greatest of ease you would need a weapon and A LOT of skill.

Borgo looked around and said "So you got us. What now?"

Naruto "We let the villagers decide. Perhaps you will receive mercy from them and that they want to throw you in prison."

Borgo started to grind his teeth "Bastard. Either way we're screwed."

Naruto "It's your own fault. If you didn't come here you wouldn't be trapped right now."

Borgo remained silent after that. The group looked around town to see if they could help but it seemed Kurenai already got rid of the few members of the Order of Light and that she already arranged a plan to put out the fire the people of the Order of Light made.

It took about two hours before the fires were out and the village was safe again. The villagers gathered around the group that came to their aid and an old man removed himself from the group.

The man bowed "We owe you people our gratitude. Without you we would've died."

Kurenai "Don't mention it. We were happy to help."

Naruto "What do you want to do with this scumbag?"

The man looked at Borgo and the men who were trapped with him and he said "We will prove we are better than this person. Since we don't have a prison here would you mind to take him to Konoha and imprison him there?"

Dante "How do you know we live in Konoha?"

Naruto's face blanked out and he said "That big symbol of the Konoha forehead protectors is a big give away."

Dante laughed "Oh right."

Kurenai "Consider it done. What will you do next?"

The man smiled "We will rebuild the village of course."

The group and the old man talked a bit and Naruto released his jutsu so that the other could tie the members from the Order of Light up. They left the village and the old man waved them out and he said "Thank you people for all that you've done. Remember that there will always be a place for you here."

The group walked steadily back to Konoha while they were dragging their captives with them. When they reached Konoha they delivered them to the ANBU and went to the Hokage to report about the mission.

The Hokage looked at Vergil and said "And who might this be?"

Kurenai "This was our employer called Slayer. His true name is Vergil and if I understood correctly he is Dante's twin brother."

The Hokage nodded "I can see the resemblance. What will you do in the future Mister Vergil?"

Vergil growled a bit and said "It's just Vergil. I've been invited by Naruto and Dante to stay with them and I accepted it."

The Hokage smiled and said "How generous Naruto."

Naruto shrugged "What can I say…he's family."

Vergil glared at Naruto and thought What is he talking about?

The Hokage "And who is the young lady?"

Maya bowed "My name is Maya Ateme lord Hokage."

The Hokage nodded "Nice to meet you. And may I ask what your plans in the future are?"

Maya shrugged "I don't know. When I was a baby the Order adopted me and I lived with them my entire life."

The Hokage "Yes I see your point. If I could I would let you live in an apartment but they are all taken."

Kurenai "Sorry to interrupt lord Hokage but…she can stay with me…if she wants."

The Hokage smiled and Maya said "Y-yes thank you…miss Yuuhi."

Kurenai "Just call me Kurenai."

The Hokage continued "Good, they will be registered. By the way I have two messages for you Naruto. One is from Kakashi and Itachi. They said you and your squad must meet them tomorrow on the bridge."

Naruto nodded "Okay and what's the other?"

The Hokage smiled and said "From your mother…you can call it a scolding letter."

Naruto sighed "Darn it I forgot to leave a note to let her know that I was with Dante. I'm screwed."

The Hokage started to chuckle because he knew how explosive Kushina could be if she had to.

Dante "Say old man…is Trish already back?"

Vergil glared at Dante "Don't tell me she is here too."

Dante nodded and Vergil got an annoyed look on his face and mumbled something like "Tsk…great."

Naruto "Anyway that covers the report. We must be going now."

The Hokage nodded and the group left.

With Naruto, Dante and Vergil

Naruto was walking towards the Namikaze estate while Dante and Vergil followed him. Vergil looked at the sky and Dante asked "Is something troubling you?"

Vergil "Back there in that office Naruto said 'he's family'. I'm trying to figure that out."

Dante "Ah right. You don't know it yet."

Vergil looked Dante straight in the eyes and he said "Know what?"

Dante "It's a long story but to say it simple…we have a half-sister and that boy over there is her child."

Vergil looked shocked and said "That's impossible. Father died a long time ago."

Dante "Vergil…look at Naruto…feel his energy and tell me again that it's impossible."

Vergil looked at Naruto and he seemed to concentrate. After a while he said "You're right. He certainly has the same kind of energy you and I have. Only there is something else…"

Dante "I know what you mean but I will explain that when we reach Naruto's house."

Vergil "Are you two sure that you have room?"

Dante smirked and pointed towards the Namikaze estate. Vergil looked at it and said "Alright…more than enough room I see. Isn't it a little big for you, Naruto and Trish?"

Dante "Well…Naruto's mother and some girl he met called Haku live there too. Naruto inherited it when his father died."

Vergil "I see." And he looked around and saw that some people were giving hateful glares towards Naruto. He didn't quite understand and looked at Dante who said "I will tell you later."

They walked on and finally they reached the front door. Naruto was about to open it but suddenly the door was opened by a very angry Kushina. She grabbed Naruto and shook him like a ragdoll.

With a mad voice she said "HOW DARE YOU TO LEAVE WITHOUT LEAVING ME A NOTE! I WAS WORRIED SICK!"

Naruto couldn't say anything because Kushina was shaking him too hard. Virgil quirked his eyebrow and said "What is it with you and aggressive women Dante?"

Dante's face blanked out because of the scene between Kushina and Naruto and he said "I…really don't know. Everywhere I am I meet aggressive women."

After a while Kushina calmed down and only now she was able to notice that someone else was with Naruto and Dante and she felt ashamed she let herself go like that.

She said to Vergil "I-I'm sorry you had to see that mister."

Vergil just looked at her and said "Don't mind it. You're only a concerned parent."

Naruto, Dante and Vergil entered the house and went to the living room together with Kushina. Everyone sat down except Vergil who seemed to be content with leaning against the wall and he said "Now explain Dante?"

Dante sighed and looked at the ceiling "Where to begin? I think I'll begin from the start. Around 8 years ago I was paying this village a visit. I was walking on the streets and I suddenly saw a strange scene. I saw a boy around 4 years old hanging on a cross."

Vergil quirked an eyebrow "Crucified a 4-year old boy?"

Dante nodded "Yes. And strangely enough the kid was still alive. The ones who put him there noticed it as well and they wanted to kill him. I intervened and killed them. Although I hate to raise my sword against humans, I chose to do it this time because what they did was even worse than what demons are capable of."

Vergil nodded "I understand. What next?"

Dante "I freed the kid. He seemed to be in shock. Suddenly I could feel the energy you felt a few minutes ago. I carried the kid to the Hokage and demanded answers. He told me the reason why the child was hated. He is the container of Kyuubi."

Vergil "Kyuubi? I thought I read something about that. Isn't that one of the nine tailed beasts?"

Dante nodded "Exacto mundo. The villagers however don't know the difference between someone who is a container from someone who is possessed. After the Hokage explained the situation to me I made up my mind and decided to take the kid with me…the same kid you see in front of you."

Vergil "I understand a little. And the woman?"

Kushina glared at Vergil "That woman has a name you know. It's Kushina Uzumaki and now tell me who you are stranger."

Vergil "My name is Vergil."

Dante "And as you might have guessed he is my twin brother."

Kushina was shocked and she said "You never told me you had a twin brother!"

Dante "It didn't seem relevant at the time. Now to answer Vergil's question. Kushina is Naruto's mother which makes her our half-sister."

Vergil "There is no denying it although I find it strange."

Kushina "What do you mean?"

Vergil "Our father died when we were young so there is almost no chance it was him and yet here you two are…"

Kushina "I see what you mean. What kind of man was he?"

Dante "He wasn't a MAN he was a devil. A pureblooded, 100% devil. And I can't quite remember him."

Vergil "Neither can I."

Kushina "Can you tell me something about him?"

Dante turned to Vergil "Can you do it Vergil. You read a lot more books than I."

Vergil growled and said "There was a time that the humans were dominated by demons. The leader of the demons was someone called Mundus, a very powerful creature. He had several generals. One of them was called Sparda."

Kushina "So Sparda was one of the bad guys."

Vergil "Listen to the story before you judge. According to the legend Sparda had a change of heart. No one knew why but he suddenly turned on his demon brethren. He succeeded in defeating them and sealed them into the demon world and closed the portal between the demon world and the human world thanks to a powerful amulet and the blood of a priestess. Sparda lost a lot of his power after that. Years later he fell in love with a human called Eva and she gave him two sons."

Kushina "You two."

Vergil nodded "Indeed."

Dante sighed "You're really a walking library Virge."

Vergil "How many times did I tell you to stop calling me that!"

Dante looked at Vergil and made a whining face. Vergil quirked and eyebrow but then he moved faster than the eye could see, grabbed Rebellion from Dante and threw it through Dante so that Dante was pierced on the wall with Rebellion in his gut. He was hanging there and it looked like he was dead.

Kushina was shocked and yelled "What in the world! How could you kill him!"

Vergil "He is annoying. And I didn't kill him."

Dante raised his head and said "Dammit Vergil! That's the fourth time you pulled that on me!"

Vergil "You shouldn't joke around the entire time idiot. Can you only be serious when you are fighting a strong enemy when he is trying to destroy the world?"

Dante "No…but it's more fun that way. I don't want to look as sour as you."

Vergil turned back to the wall, started to lean on it, crossed his arms and closed his eyes. Dante removed himself from the wall and said "Ah, the fearful silent treatment 'ey."

Vergil remained silent and Kushina thought Those two are going to be a pain in the…

Naruto interrupted her thought when he said "Hey guys, I'm going to get a bite to eat and then I'm going to train before I am going to sleep."

Vergil "I'll join you."

Naruto looked shocked because he didn't expect that. The entire way home Vergil remained silent and when he answered a question he did it a short as he could.

Naruto said "Why?"

Vergil "Why not? If I stay here I have to endure my brother's idiocy and if I come with you I can train myself so it's a win-win situation for me."

Naruto "Fine. I heard from Dante that you're quite skilled."

Vergil glanced at Dante for a minute and said "Did he now?"

Naruto nodded "Yes he did. He said that you are better in some ways than him."

Vergil "That's a surprise."

Dante growled "That was a private conversation."

Naruto sweatdropped "Anyway…I'm off." And he left the house with Vergil. Soon after that they were walking in Konoha and Naruto asked "So Vergil…what do you want to eat?"

Vergil "You choose. I'm not picky."

Naruto shrugged and he said "Fine. We're going to Ichiraku ramen shop."

Vergil nodded and they went there. They placed their order and soon Naruto was eating away. Sometimes he quickly looked at Vergil and thought I still can't believe that Vergil and Dante are twins. While Dante has a rebellious and carefree nature Vergil is more strict and cold.

After they were done eating they went to the training field and they saw Ten-ten already training there. Naruto put his hand up and yelled "Hey Ten-ten."

Ten-ten interrupted her training and said "Hey Naruto. Are you coming here for training again!"

Naruto smiled and nodded "You know it!"

Ten-ten suddenly looked at Vergil and said "Hey Dante, what's up with the blue clothes and the different haircut?"

Vergil's eyes widened and suddenly he shudders and he growled "I think you're mistaking me for someone else."

Naruto saw how Vergil was shuddering and he laughed and said "Ten-ten, let me introduce you to Dante's twin brother Vergil."

Ten-ten "He has a twin brother!" and she looked closely at Vergil "Well…I can see the differences now. Sorry for my mistake."

Vergil "Just don't make that mistake again."

Ten-ten "Sorry again." And she turned to Naruto "Hey Naruto, did you already know that we have to meet Kakashi and Itachi tomorrow? The note I got said it was important."

Naruto nodded "I heard it from the Hokage."

Vergil "What's a Kakashi and Itachi?"

Naruto "They are my teachers. They train us in the ninja arts and guide us on missions."

Vergil "I see…interesting."

Suddenly Vergil looked serious when he saw a shade running towards their location. It jumped on Naruto's back. Vergil could clearly see it was a girl. He heard the girl say "Hey hey Naruto."

Naruto "Hey Haku-hime, did you had fun today?"

Haku "Absolutely not. It was boring and I couldn't stop thinking about you."

She kissed Naruto in the neck and Ten-ten's eyes widened and she said "What's going on!"

Naruto looked surprised at Ten-ten and said "What?"

Ten-ten "You two look like…"

Haku giggled "A couple?"

Ten-ten nodded and Naruto smiled "That could be…because we are."

Ten-ten "Since when?"

Naruto "Well…since a while ago…why?"

Ten-ten wanted to say something but Vergil interrupted her and said "Are we gonna train today or do you three want to exchange information about how to get a relationship?"

Haku looked at Vergil and asked "Dante? What have you done to yourself?"

Vergil growled and Naruto quickly said "That isn't Dante…that's Vergil…Dante's twin brother."

Haku "Really now? Nice to meet you Mister Vergil."

Vergil "Just Vergil will do…if someone needs me…I'm training over there…away from the people who confuse me with my idiotic brother."

Ten-ten "No please stay. I and Haku are just going."

Haku looked at Ten-ten and she said with a whining voice "We are?"

Ten-ten grabbed Haku's hand and dragged her away "Yes we are. We gotta talk!"

Naruto and Vergil quirked an eyebrow at the same time when they saw the strange scene between the two girls. Vergil said "You know they are going to talk about you right?"

Naruto sighed "Yeah and the funny thing is I can't do anything about it!"

Vergil "That's your problem. Anyway let's start training!"

One hour later

Naruto fell down on the ground. He had many cuts and his clothes looked terrible. He was gasping for air and he said "Damn, you're even worse than Dante and Trish."

Vergil sheathed Yamato and said "You aren't fast enough…yet."

Naruto slowly got up and said "Than it's time to get more serious." And suddenly Naruto was enveloped in a red aura and his wounds almost closed immediately. A triple bladed claw appeared and Naruto got on all fours.

Vergil quirked an eyebrow "Hmm…a devil arm?"

Naruto smirked and rushed towards Vergil, who was barely able to dodge Naruto. Naruto turned around and rushed at Vergil again but this time Vergil suspected it. He dodged and immediately turned around to strike Naruto.

But Naruto noticed the counter attack and used Yamato as stepping stone. While he was in the air the triple bladed claw disappeared and a red spear with golden graphics on it appeared in his hands.

Naruto came down with the spear first and he cried out FIRE EARTHQUAKE! Naruto slammed the spear in the ground and a huge shockwave took place and fire erupted from the ground. The attack forced Vergil to teleport away from it and Vergil landed a few feet away.

Vergil teleported again and landed near the place where Naruto landed and with Yamato he cut a tree and the tree was falling towards Naruto.

Vergil smirked because he knew Naruto couldn't dodge the tree anymore. But soon the smirk took place for an amazed face when he saw that the tree was lifted by a ethereal arm. Naruto let his devil bringer appear and caught the tree. He cocked his arm back and threw the tree towards Vergil who dodged it.

Because of the crash Naruto couldn't see where Vergil was. He looked around and saw too late that Vergil had send a few flying swords towards him. A few impaled him and he was pierced to the nearest tree.

Vergil came out of the dust and said with a smile "I think that's enough for today."

Naruto nodded and said "I believe you're right…I'm beat."

Vergil "You weren't bad…for a junior."

Naruto growled "I don't know which is worse…Dante's squirt or your junior."

Vergil "Get used to it."

He turned around and headed home. Naruto looked strange and suddenly screamed "Hey Vergil…don't you think you should let me loose! Your flying sword is still pinning me to this tree!"

Vergil kept on walking but he snapped his fingers and the flying sword disappeared. Naruto was free and his wound closed almost immediately.

He quickly caught up with Vergil and they were walking home together. Kushina was already waiting for them and said "What took you two so long! It's already past 12 o'clock!"

Vergil calmly looked at her and said "Male bonding and he walked into the house."

Naruto said "We were training. Anyway, I think I'm going to catch a quick shower and then turn in for the night. I have to meet Kakashi and Itachi tomorrow."

Kushina "Oh yeah that's right. By the way I heard from the Hokage that Itachi was complaining that it was irresponsible of you that you took that job together with Dante."

Naruto sighed "Really…he's even more on my case than Kakashi is. I wonder why. Anyway I'm going upstairs. Good night mom."

Kushina "Good night Naruto."

The next morning

Naruto got up and got dressed. He ate something and went on his way to the small bridge where he would meet Kakashi and Itachi. He saw that Ino and Ten-ten were already waiting there and by the look on their faces Naruto could tell that they were waiting for a pretty long time.

Naruto said with a lazy voice "Good morning."

Ino "Good morning Naruto. Is it true!"

Naruto glanced at Ino and said "What?"

Ino "That you and Haku hooked up?"

Naruto sighed "Yeah…so?"

Ino squealed "That's soooo cute!"

Naruto's face blanked out while Ino continued with her squealing and he thought Women are such enigmas sometimes.

Suddenly Itachi and Kakashi appeared and Naruto thought For once they have good timing! They saved me a lot of answering questions from Ino…there really is a Kami up there!

Kakashi looked at the group and his only visible eye looked lazy and he said "Good morning squad."

Ten-ten "Good morning sensei's. So what's up?"

Itachi "A very serious thing." And he threw three paper things at the group. Naruto caught his and read it. He quirked an eyebrow and said "Chunin exam application forms?"

Kakashi nodded "Indeed. It seems we have very skilled genin groups this year and the Hokage asked every jonin leader if the groups were ready for the coming chunin exams. Itachi and I think you three are ready."

Itachi "Think about it first before you fill it in. The chunin exams are serious business and you could seriously get hurt."

Naruto smirked "I don't have to think that long about it. Count me in."

Mnarutodbz "Well this is it for today."

Dante walks through a door and on the other side was the cast of The Saiyans new adventure and said to Goku "Hey Goku…you can't believe what happened to us today!"

Goku looks interested at Dante and asked "Tell me."

Dante "Storylover213 didn't feel like mocking us today!"

Goku's eyes shot wide open and he cried out "NO WAY! I can't believe it!"

Vegeta heard Goku scream and said "Kakarot…why are you screaming?"

Goku "It seems that Storylover213 didn't feel like mocking the cast from Naruto doesn't cry!"

Vegeta growled "What made you guys so special?"

Dante "Perhaps it's our looks."

Vegeta glared at Dante "Are you saying we are ugly!"

Dante started to sweat "No…No really I didn't"

Vegeta "I think you just did…how about I rearrange your face…BIG BANG ATTACK!"

Dante is hit by Vegeta's attack and flies away. Mnarutodbz sighs and said "Damn that door between different stories. Anyway don't forget to review and until next time!"
