KK here's my next chapter, hope you enjoy! Also Song of Insanity, I appreciate your apology and have no problem with hearing from you again. I admit I can be sensitive about certain things, and the only reason I responded at all was because I received your review about three hours before I posted my new chapter. Otherwise I would have likely just ignored it, or worked faster to get the chapter out. Life can be a bit of hassle and I try to work as quickly as I can. I apologize for the childish remarks, and hope you can forgive. I hope you keep reading, and know that I wasn't being sarcastic when I said that it really does mean a lot that people pester me to update. It means to me that they really enjoy my work, and want to keep reading and it encourages me to continue. So I hope you do keep reading, and I hope we can forgive and forget. And to you Song of Insanity, this fast update is dedicated to you.
I hope everyone else enjoys, and remember to never sweat the little things, and remember that we are all human. I do believe it was a quote from 'Criminal Minds' that said "Life, can be a helluva thing to happen to a person."

Chapter 43: Let's build an Army!
'Wow!' The was all Kushina could think when it came to her daughter's girlfriends. Each one was unique, each one had different traits, different personalities, different likes, different dislikes. Kushina had originally assumed that each of the girls would share similar traits, I mean, how else could you manage four separate relationships, even if they were all aware of them?
What she got was entirely unexpected. Each of the girls was different, unique. First there was Fleur. Kushina knew right off the bat that this girl came from a noble family. She held herself in a prim and proper fashion. She moved with elegance, and was very formal with her. She was kind and caring and exceedingly beautiful. She spoke with an accent that Kushina couldn't always understand, of course she also missed a lot of the French words the girl would speak at one time or another.
Next came Katie. Katie was a lot like a more mellow version of Kushina. She was blunt, but kind. She was obviously very affectionate and loving, as she sat close to Riley a lot and would often look to see Riley's reactions, as Kushina met the girls. The girl looked athletic and carried herself with confidence.
Then there was Daphne. She was an odd one. The girl was cool and formal with Kushina. Referring to her as 'ma'am' or 'my lady'. She possessed a very rigid and cold stance to her, and yet she would often be broken from that when Riley would say or do something that caught the girl's attention. It quickly became obvious to Kushina that Daphne was a private and cold person, around those she didn't know. However when placed with those she cared for, she opened up, this was shown when she would genuinely smile, and get this loving look in her eyes whenever Riley spoke.
Finally there was Luna. Kushina adored the girl almost instantly. The girl was just so cute and odd. She often mentioned things that Kushina didn't get or understand but she said it in this way, that Kushina just found adorable. The girl was obviously very affectionate, as she hung off Riley almost the whole time. She sat with Riley's arm around her, and nestled against her for most of the time they were there.
It warmed her heart when she saw how angry they were to learn the truth of Riley's parentage. Katie and Fleur fed off one another as they raged, they growled and cursed and generally ranted about how it was possible for people like that to exist. Their anger towards what had happened to Riley, very nearly brought a smile to Kushina's face. It proved that they cared for her, and that her pain was their pain. Daphne simmered the whole time. After she had been told she adopted this scowl and the room got a lot colder for a few moments. The temperature would have continued to drop had Riley not pulled Daphne into a loving embrace and kissed her passionately. Luna meanwhile looked neutral, however it was what she said that showed just how she really felt.
"I hope you plan on hurting them." Luna stated.
"Oh… believe me… those fuckers will rue the day they chose to tear my life apart. I've always felt nothing for the Leaf. I didn't like the place, but beyond that… they were just insects beneath my feet… things beyond my notice… now however..." Riley replied, and with her words the room grew hotter. Remus, Sirius, and Kushina suddenly became fearful as they felt demonic KI flood the room. A smoldering heat accompanied it, and it drew everyone's attention to Riley.
Riley was in her angelic form, and they could all see the red glow of fire in her veins, as she grew in anger. Her wings were wrapped in a red flame with purple tips, that grew ever so slightly with each passing moment.
"Those fuckers made my life hell. They played god with my existence. They took me from my mother, they abused me, neglected me…. Well you know what? I'm done with ignoring them… they want a monster… I'll fucking give them a monster. I'll tell everyone in the Leaf what Mito, Minato, and Lily did! Then! Only then… will I decide who lives and who dies… After that's done… I will level that village to the ground and salt the earth. The place has become a land of decadence, and betrayal. It's a cesspool that needs to be destroyed. If the people can realize what their leaders are doing, and make the right choices, then I'll spare them… but if they refuse to see… if they refuse to grow and change… then I will eradicate them from this world." Riley ranted as she seethed.
Before things could get too fiery, Katie stepped forward and pulled Riley into a firm hug. Kushina, Remus and Sirius were surprised by the action and suddenly very worried for Katie, as the heat that was emanating from Riley… it would have burned a normal person, badly. And while some of Katie's clothes began to smoke, her body was fine. Riley quickly calmed down and withdrew the heat from Katie's attire, to stop it from bursting into flame.
Riley's other mates quickly stepped up around her, joining in the hug, while Riley apologized profusely for her actions.
"Great-Grandfather… I'm sorry… I know the Leaf means a lot to you… but what they've done… It can't go unanswered." Riley thought as she embraced her girls.
"I know… you are offering to tell people the truth… to let them see what they have been blind to. It's all I can ask. What has been done to you is unforgivable. I may not like to fight… but people often forget that I am first and foremost, a shinobi. And I am fully capable of taking life. I've killed tens of thousands in my lifetime, and I've done so without mercy. You offer the people of the Leaf a chance… if they admit to fault and see through the deception and lies.. then they'll be spared, but if they choose to ignore it… then there is no point in trying to save them. I will give my life to protect those whom I view as family. And as long as the people hold the Will of Fire within them, they will always be my family. However… I will not waste my time on the blind. I will help the ignorant, but not the arrogant. If the people admit to fault, then I ask that you save them. But if they refuse… if they deny the truth and stand by the monsters who made your life hell… then the Will of Fire has gone out in them… and they are no longer my family." Hashirama replied, earning a nod of agreement from Kurama.
"I see… thank you great-grandfather. I will give the average person in the Leaf a chance. But they're only getting one. And no matter which way they go… I will destroy that place. Never again will people believe that such a place will be allowed to exist. Places of evil, like that… no… those places shall be destroyed. I will see to it, personally." Riley hissed out, her anger still very apparent.
"I can't wait to see what Ralael has in store for them." Daphne muttered.
"No… Ralael is not a tool for my vengeance. I will use Ralael to kill those I don't care for, but those that I do… the monsters in my life… No. Ralael will not be the one to kill them. I may use Ralael to ruin their lives… but it will be Riley whom puts the blade to their throats. I destroyed Root with Ralael, because they meant nothing to me. However… I killed Danzo as Riley… he knew exactly who it was who was killing him, I made sure of it." Riley responded to Daphne's statement.
Daphne simply nodded in approval, as did some of the other girls.
Meanwhile, Kushina just stared at the small cluster of girls, with a fond smile. The way they held each other, and gazed longingly into each others eyes, the closeness that they were all so comfortable with… it spoke volumes of how much they cared for each other.
Things were quiet for several moments before Sirius started to laugh. All eyes turned to him as he continued to laugh his ass off.
"What the hell are you laughing at?" Riley asked.
"I just realized something…! You tricked the dark lord!" Sirius got out between his fits of laughter.
"You tricked the dark lord?" Remus replied with confusion.
"Oh… well yeah, I guess I did." Riley answered with a smile.
"How so?" Remus asked as he glanced between the smirking Riley and laughing Sirius.
"Well… you know how he was revived before the tournament right?" Riley asked, to which she earned a nod from Remus. "Well… Ralael was the one to do it. While Grandfather Madara and I, gave the impression that we were servants of Ralael. But since I am Ralael, I guess that means that I did trick the dark lord." Riley answered.
"You know he's probably going to be pissed when he finds out?" Sirius stated as he wiped tears from his eyes. He just found it so hilarious, one of the most powerful dark wizards of all time, and he got played by a witch who was barely a teenager.
"Eh… actually, I think he'll be more relieved then anything. He offered himself up as a familiar to the Angel, because it was powerful. When he learns it was me, he'll probably be peeved but in the end, it'll mean he's serving someone more like him. An angel can't empathize with his struggles, I can. And my motives are a lot more relatable then an angel's would be." Riley stated.
"I just can't believe it… how were you able to make the dark lord a new body?" Remus asked.
"I possess many unnatural abilities. I've just begun to tap into the Creation of All Things, ability. That is a technique that allows me to give life to my imagination. Basically if I can think it, I can make it real. It's how the sage created the tailed beasts." Riley explained, earning amazed looks from everyone present.
"Gods… what can't you do?" Kushina as she stared at her daughter in amazement.
"Um…. Sing. I cannot sing. Can't carry a tune to save my life." Riley answered which sort of brought everyone out of their amazed stupor. Her response earned chuckles from her mates, as well as Madara while Kushina, Remus and Sirius simply smiled at her.
"So what's the plan Riley?" Daphne inquired.
"Well… I'll be sending clones to finish up with the school year. I'll stay here and help mother recuperate. Otherwise we just play it by ear. The chances are good that Britain will try to do something to Iwa, but since they lack an army, I don't know what it'll be." Riley responded.
"Yeah… who knows what the Wizengamot will try to do. They'll want to do something… the question is, what?" Daphne agreed.
The others nodded in agreement. None of them really had any ideas as to what Britain could offer in war, other then support. Eventually the conversation died out and Riley decided to send her mates back to Hogwarts. They all said their goodbyes, and quickly departed, while Madara also left and returned to Riley's body.
From there, Kushina began the soul wrenching process of just waiting to recover. It was difficult to remain awake at all, and she would fall into sleep with such ease that she could be in the middle of a conversation and she would fall asleep. She also found it difficult to focus on one thing for too long, her mind wandered a lot. If someone was talking she would remember what they were saying, but her eyes would often drift to something else in the room.
It was the worst feeling in the world. Sirius and Remus would often come up and chat with the woman so that she wouldn't be bored, but Kushina was an active woman, to be awake but unable to move a lot was soul crushingly boring. Riley tried to lighten the woman's mood by bringing games and things for them to play, but those were only mild distractions. Sadly, it would take a few months for Kushina to regain enough of her strength to be able to operate independently, and so each day began to feel like a lifetime for the woman, whom could only grit her teeth and bare it.
Kushina's physical recovery began about seven days after she had been brought to the house. Riley would have her flex her muscles and bend her legs, to begin rebuilding strength. It was tiring, with fifteen years of disuse her muscles could barely support her weight. She kept at it, eager to rebuild her strength. It was after the fifth day of physical exercise, that Remus suggested they start supplying Kushina with potions to speed along the recovery.
Riley liked the idea, since medical jutsu could only heal, not increase muscle mass, and since Kushina's muscle weren't damaged, just weak, there was very little Riley could do for her. Potions however could help speed along the process, help encourage muscle growth, keep her energized and moving and maybe help with other underlying concerns.
Of course that was where the problem came up of where to get the potions and finding out the right ones. Riley was great at potions, but she was no master, and while she knew of some potions that could be used, she didn't know the best, and of course, this being her mother, she would settle for no less then the best to help her. That was when Remus suggested that they ask Professor Snape to help. Remus explained that they could start the false story of where she came from with Snape. They could tell him that she just appeared on their doorstep a few days ago, along with the information about her being Riley's mother. They used Occlumency to confirm it, and had been taking care of her.
It didn't take Riley long to decide, if it would help speed along Kushina's recovery she would have told Dumbledore the whole story. Snape, well he wasn't a problem at all. Riley respected the man, and was sure that he would help, after all, she was one of his favorite students. And on top of that, school would be finished in another day or two. Fleur had already returned to France, though Riley supplied her with a portkey to travel to the house whenever she wanted. At the same time she would fetch her mates from Hogwarts each night, and see how they were doing. Katie was still stressing over her OWLS but other then that, they were fine. The girls spent a lot of time chatting with Kushina, they enjoyed getting to know the woman, or as Fleur liked to joke, her future mother-in-law.
So with school ending soon, she knew the only thing the potions master would have to do is grade essays so he might be open to some side work. With that in mind she quickly departed to Hogwarts.
-At Hogwarts-
Daphne and Tracy were strolling out of potions class with one of Riley's clones when the real Riley came darting by. She stopped for only a moment to kiss Daphne before darting into the potions room.
"What was that about?" Daphne asked Riley's clone.
The clone just stared at her for a moment before shrugging.
"Professor Snape." Riley greeted the professor as she walked in.
"Ms. Slytherin, forget something?" Snape inquired.
"No professor, well… actually I wanted to ask you a few questions. You see, a problem has recently been brought to my attention and I'm needing to take care of it. I was wondering… what per say would you suggest I give to a woman who's spent the last fifteen years in a coma in order to speed along her recovery?" Riley asked.
Snape stared at her for a moment almost as if contemplating if her question was a joke or something, before answering. "Well, aside from pepper-up potions to assist in recovery from daily physical rehabilitation, I would have to know if there are any underlying medical concerns before I could properly recommend a regiment to administer." Snape answered.
"I see. Well as you can probably guess, I am in-fact in need of some assistance. This woman that has come into my care is very fragile right now. Her muscles have atrophied. She has difficulties staying awake. She has difficulties remaining focused. She can't talk in large spurts without her throat hurting her. As for any underlying medical problems, I wouldn't know, I know enough about potions to know that in this case, it would be unwise to give her any without consulting a professional." Riley explained.
"Why not bring the woman to St. Mungos'?" Snape inquired.
"I'll be honest professor, this woman means a lot to me, and the manner in which she was placed into a coma, as well as her connection to me leaves me in a slightly paranoid predicament." Riley answered.
Snape stared at her for several moments before nodding in understanding. Whomever this woman was, Riley didn't want others to find her.
"In order to recommend the proper potion regiment to speed along her recovery I would have to do my own analysis." Snape informed her.
"Thank you professor. Whenever you are free, I would be most appreciative. And of course I will pay you for your time." Riley stated, earning a nod from Snape.
It was two days later when the potions master was able to make it out there. It was the day after school had ended, so the house was quiet due to Riley's mates being home to see their families. Snape dropped by around noon. And Riley quickly brought him up to see Kushina.
"This is her, Professor. Kushina Uzumaki." Riley introduced her mother as she led Snape into her room, along with Remus.
Snape gave Riley a look but didn't hold it for to long. He quickly approached the tired woman whom eyed him curiously.
"Ms. Uzumaki, my name is Severus Snape. Ms. Slytherin asked for my assistance in diagnosing a proper regiment of potions to assist in your recovery. I will need to do a few medical scans, but this shouldn't take more then a few minutes." Snape explained to the woman.
Kushina nodded in understanding, and Snape set about his work. He utilized several medical spells to determine the exact status of her body. Once he took note of all that would need to be rectified he withdrew a piece of paper and began to write on it. After several moments he was finished and turned to Riley.
"Here. These are what I would suggest. A weeks worth of potions, give these to her and I will return for another check-up to make sure that there are no changes needed." Snape told Riley.
"Thank you professor, this means a lot." Riley replied with a grateful smile.
Snape simply nodded in reply.
"Severus, would you happen to have any recommendations as to where it would be best to acquire these potions, cost if of no concern?" Remus inquired as he peered over Riley's shoulder at the list.
"For the right price, I would be willing to make them. However these potions can easily be acquired at most shops. Only one would be a bit difficult to acquire, and it would probably be for the best that you put an order for it in right away." Snape replied.
"Hm… you know what, in this case, I wont settle for second best. Whatever your price professor, I will happily pay." Riley stated. Snape simply nodded and informed her that he would send over a list of the costs along with the potions in two days times, as well as directions as to how to properly administer them. Then a week from then he would return to administer another check-up.
Riley was more then happy with the arrangement as she knew there was nowhere better in all of Britain to get your hands on potions, then those brewed by Snape.
From there things went pretty normally, Luna was the first one of her mates to make it over after summer started. She came over and spent the whole day hanging out with Riley, she also spent a great deal of time speaking with Kushina. It made Riley smile as obviously her mother very much approved of Luna, and seemed to really enjoy the quirky little blonde's presence. Sirius was quick to come out of his shell around Kushina, especially when he learned that the woman was a prankster. He and Remus spent hours talking about the hell raising they did as teenagers, and Kushina regaled them all in stories of her childhood pranks and how she dealt with the bullies that pestered her.
An interesting thing that began to occur around this time, was Hashirama beginning to gain a physical form, like Madara had before him. Riley suspected it would happen but was surprised that it had happened so quickly. Kurama suspected that it was due to her being a full demon now, that sped up the process. Madara was absolutely ecstatic, at the prospect of soon having his friend back in physical form. Riley was actually looking forward to it too. She had started a bit of training under Hashirama, and the man assisted her in areas where she was lacking. He helped train her in water and earth based techniques, as well as furthering her understanding of wood style. He also helped teach her how to better channel her sage powers and utilize her healing powers through wood style. He also explained a secret to her, one that had eluded Madara, and the rest of the world for a long time.
"Oh I have got hear this." Madara had stated with a bit of condescension.
"Hm… shhh. Madara, I'm trying to explain something." Hashirama reprimanded him, which earned a bemused scowl from Madara.
"I want to teach you how to use yang release to create a source for ninjutsu from nothing." Hashirama began to explain.
"What?" Riley asked in confusion.
"So that's how you and Tobirama did it! That makes complete sense." Madara stated as he suddenly realized a secret that had long since eluded him.
"I'm not sure I follow." Riley said with a scratch of her head.
"In battle Hashirama could draw his wood style from nothing, he didn't need there to be trees nearby or roots beneath our feet like you or I do. Tobirama could do the same, he could utilize water techniques that required a water source, without there being a water source nearby. It was always assumed that the two were able to make their techniques from nothing, but now it makes sense. They were using Yang Release, to create the element and then manipulate it, thus allowing them to use their techniques anywhere." Madara explained as he figured it out.
"Exactly my friend. We used these techniques to utilize all of our abilities, no matter where we were. I'm going to teach you how to use Yang Release to create Water, and Wood as those are two that actually rely on some sort of source nearby to use affectively." Hashirama informed her.
Riley smirked at that, she was really looking forward to learning this skill, as one of the biggest problems with certain water jutsu was that they needed a water source, so unless you had one already sealed inside of you, like most good water users did, then you needed a source like a lake or river. With this ability she could create such sources from nothing, which would assist her and her allies.
Speaking of her allies, Riley's training of her friends continued as the summer began. She had given them all her Floo address and was sending her clones through the Floo whenever her friends called to say they were free. So far, she had avoided informing any accept Draco and Hermione, whom had both dropped by five days into summer, about her mother. Riley had no problems with people knowing the truth as she planned on hammering the Leaf with it sooner or later, however she was busy spinning a tale of how she got her hands on Kushina since the Leaf was aware that the angel had taken her. Basically they were using Remus' story, the woman was found on their doorstep and was nursed to health, where she told them her story and they realized her connection to Riley.
Of course, just as she had suspected, Draco and Hermione were absolutely furious when Riley told them about her birth, and Kushina's connection to her. Good friends take your pain to heart, and Draco was her best friend. Hermione was a very family oriented person and thus her anger at the situation was accentuated. Kushina liked the two, especially Hermione, with her inquisitive nature. The girl was full of questions, which Kushina was just to happy to answer as it helped her mind stay focused.
Just as he had said he would, after a full week, Snape returned for another check-up. Kushina was feeling a lot better after a week of potions, even if she did complain that they all tasted like ass. She was improving, and Riley knew she'd be able to start more rigorous physical therapy soon. Just like before, Snape ran his tests, and then informed Riley that he would send the potions along in two days.
About a week and a half into summer, Riley was summoned to the Wizengamot, where she was awarded the Order of Merlin, first class for her part in destroying the invasion force and saving Hogwarts. The media had a frenzy over it, and Riley feared that she would have gone blind from all of the photo flashes.
It was the following night that Sirius informed her that the dark lord had called a meeting of his own, and wanted her to be there. Riley left several clones to guard the house, and informed Dobby that no one was to enter while she, Sirius and Remus were gone.
The meeting was held at Malfoy manor, and most of Voldemort's inner circle was there. Riley took position out of the way as the meeting began. She made sure to summon Madara as well, to increase the intimidation factor.
"Welcome my friends. I have called you all here tonight to discuss how to move forward with our plans. Very soon, I suspect Dumbledore will reform his Order of the Phoenix, however the threat of war looms heavily over Britain and I wonder just what the Ministry is planning to do?" Voldemort informed them before turning his attention to both Severus and Lucius.
Snape stepped forward first and addressed the crowd. "You are right my lord. Dumbledore has already begun planning to restart the organization. He is currently contacting old members and looking for a place to base it out of."
Voldemort nodded and turned to Lucius.
"The Ministry is in a debacle my lord. The Wizengamot and Fudge wish to retaliate against Iwa, but they don't know how. The Aurors are a peace keeping force, not an army. Meanwhile Fudge is trying to halt Dumbledore at every turn as the man seems to be trying to spread word of your return. It wont be long before the Daily Prophet begins to print articles, slandering Dumbledore." Lucius informed the crowd and the dark lord.
Again Voldemort nodded and then opened the floor up to discussion. The question was, what could they do with this information, how best was it to advance?
Riley listened quietly while the death eaters chatted amongst themselves, out of the corner of her eye she saw Remus whisper something to Sirius whom perked up and nodded. Sirius quickly stepped forward which drew the dark lord's attention, which in turn quieted everyone.
"You have something to say, Sirius?" Voldemort inquired.
"Yes. I do believe I've got the perfect place to put the Order of the Phoenix where we can keep an eye on them." Sirius explained.
"Oh? Do tell." Voldemort urged him.
"Grimmauld Place. My old home. It's under Fidelius so only I know where it is. Plus it'll help ingrain me with Dumbledore." Sirius explained.
"A good suggestion. Utilize it. With the order using Grimmauld place we'll know just where they are at all times. Now… what else can we do?" Voldemort ordered and then asked the crowd.
"We need a direction to go my lord. Are we planning to wait on our attack on Azkaban?" Macnair inquired.
"No… I do believe that should be our first major offensive. However we must be cautious. We need to make it look like the prisoners broke out on their own. Otherwise the Ministry will catch on to us too soon. We also need something for Dumbledore to focus on." Voldemort explained.
"What about the prophecy my lord?" Snape inquired.
"Ah… that would be useful wouldn't it, Severus? The old man still thinks you only knew part of it." Voldemort noted.
"What prophecy are you speaking of?" Riley inquired curiously.
Voldemort turned to the girl, and gave her a look before answering. "You know of the divination teacher, Trelawney? When she applied for the job she delivered a prophecy, probably the only one she has ever given. It went as thus, 'The one with the power to vanquish the dark lord approaches, Born to those whom have thrice defied him. Born as the tenth month rises, and the dark lord will mark her as his equal. Though she will have a power the dark lord knows not. And either must die at the hand of the other, for neither can live while the other survives.' That was the prophecy that was spoken of, and one of the main reasons I agreed to the Masked Man's plan." Voldemort explained.
"You believed that me or Naruko would be the one spoken of in this prophecy?" Riley inquired.
"Indeed. And it proved to be true. You were the one who vanquished me. Your father has been a pain in my ass for a long time. You were born on October tenth, so I would say that fit's 'tenth month rises'. You have a piece of my soul stuck within you, so I think that would qualify as marking you as my equal. And you do have a power that I don't fully understand. And finally, with the situation we were in, it was either I kill you and by extension kill Minato, or eventually Minato would kill me, so neither of us could live while the other survived." Voldemort explained to her.
"It sounds like the prophecy has been fulfilled." Madara noted.
"It has… it only spoke of vanquishing me, not killing me. You did vanquish me, so the prophecy has been fulfilled, and thus nullified. Dumbledore knows that Severus overheard Sybil deliver the prophecy but he thinks that Severus only heard the first part. We can use that to our advantage." Voldemort stated.
"How so?" Riley inquired.
"Dumbledore will think that the prophecy is still in effect. He'll believe that it entails a life or death mission to destroy one another. And he'll think that I hold the prophecy in high regard since 'it' is what led me to attack you." Voldemort explained.
"Dumbledore, will think you'll go after it. That you'll want the rest of the prophecy." Riley guessed which earned her a nod from Voldemort.
"Exactly. Severus will inform Dumbledore of my desire to know more of the prophecy, and we will use that to manipulate Dumbledore into moving his order members to protect it. Thus giving us more leeway to move across the country and continue recruiting." Voldemort explained.
"So I assume the prophecy is now in the department of mysteries?" Lucius inquired.
"It is Indeed." Severus answered.
"Hm… interesting. So while Dumbledore thinks we're after the prophecy we can still move in secret. Hell, this might be what forces Naruko back to Britain if the Leaf learns of a prophecy stating that the Girl-Who-Lived is meant to kill the dark lord. I know for a fact, Master Jiraiya and Minato are big believers in prophecy, and this will only affirm their beliefs that Naruko is the Child of Destiny." Riley mused aloud.
"So we have a base plan. Recruit, free our supporters from Azkaban, and trick Dumbledore into forming a zone defense around the prophecy. All the while we continue to push Fudge to dig his own grave." Madara summarized, which earned nods of agreement from the rest of the inner circle.
"Now, what are we going to do in regards to this possible war, how could this help us?" Lucius asked aloud.
"Perhaps you can convince the Wizengamot into funding certain bills to get a military put into establishment. With Dumbledore in hot water, his ability to block such attempts would be severely diminished." Riley offered.
"Indeed the threat posed by Iwa might very well be the what we need to finally establish a standing army. The problem will be how we ensure something like that doesn't backfire onto us. If we make a force, it needs to be one allied to us, so that when we usurp control of the Ministry we're not facing off against an army." Lucius stated which earned thoughtful nods from those present.
"Riley." Hashirama called out to her.
"Yes grandfather?" Riley thought back.
"Perhaps this is the opportunity you've been waiting for to build your paradise. What if you offered to the Wizengamot to build a hidden village here in Britain?" Hashirama stated.
"That's actually a good idea. With the popularity you are amassing and the desperation they have for revenge, if you play your cards right, you could get them to agree." Kurama added.
"Hmm…. Form my own hidden village? You know what… I think that might just work." Riley thought back as she stepped forward, drawing the groups attention.
"You have something to say?" Voldemort inquired.
"I do… Britain needs an army… one that'll work for us. None of you are military leaders, other then the dark lord, and even then, he can't be put in charge of any sort of military. Besides that, Britain doesn't have soldiers, if we just propose a force of wizards to serve as an army, that'll mean a lot of Aurors will probably be placed in it, and that'll defeat the purpose." Riley began to explain.
"So what are you proposing?" Voldemort inquired as a wicked grin began to touch upon his lips. The dark lord probably suspected what Riley was going to propose, after all, shinobi were the most feared magical warriors on the planet. To have their own standing force of them, the Wizengamot would be absolutely ecstatic over the idea.
"We need an army that'll serve us. A force that will follow us, when we take over. What I'm proposing is the construction of Britain's own hidden village. A village where shinobi will train. A place that will serve as a deterrent to enemies, and place Britain on the same pedestal as the Elemental Nations." Riley offered to them. The gathering of witches and wizards began to chat amongst themselves, talking about the idea, mulling it over. Riley could see the gears turning, if Britain had it's own shinobi force, they would be the envy of the world. A nation with magic, and ninjutsu. A place with warriors that were trained in magical combat, and the shinobi arts. Such a place would be feared and revered the world over.
"But who will run such a place? If we could even get an organization like that started, who would run it?" Goyle Sr, inquired.
"That is the question. While many would want me to take the job given my new hero status, that I think would be a bit to obvious… at least at first." Riley answered.
"So who would run it?" Voldemort asked.
"A small council of warriors. I of course as a hero and a well known lord, would be an acceptable face. However there are a two others I had in mind. The first is Itachi Uchiha, a famous ninja, whom has sought asylum here. I'm sure getting his family into a hidden village would be preferable to the man. And secondly, someone with experience as a magical warrior. Someone who could oversee the magical training of such warriors." Riley informed them all with a devious smirk.
"And who would that be?" Sirius asked.
"A relatively unknown Wizard, but one of immense power, whom will probably be making headlines in the near future as he reactivates his old house." Riley answered as her smirk grew.
"Well, don't keep us in suspense girl, who is it?" Crabbe Sr urged her on.
"Why I believe his name is Thomas Gaunt. Last of the Most ancient and Noble house of Gaunt." Riley answered with a smirk. Voldemort smirked as well while everyone else just looked confused.
"Well played, dear girl, well played. I do believe something like that will truly throw the old man, and the Wizengamot, for a loop." Voldemort said with a chuckle as he shifted out of his fearsome snakelike appearance and took the form of the elegant Tom Riddle.
"My lord, do you know of who she is referring to? I thought the Gaunt family died out a few decades ago?" Lucius inquired curiously, earning nods from the other prominent heads of house.
"The male line died out. However my mother, whom was a Gaunt, managed to have me before her passing. I assume that it is me whom you are referring to, as this Thomas Gaunt?" Voldemort asked.
"Can it be done?" Riley inquired in response.
"A simple trip to Gringotts along with the exchanging of some gold could get the records created. A long lost cousin, found through a blood test… I think the Wizengamot would buy it. Truly this is a marvelous idea, though how trustworthy is Itachi Uchiha? Will he be sympathetic to our goals?" Voldemort asked.
"Itachi only wants to protect his family. Offering them a place in a hidden village and allowing him to help run it will lift an immense weight off his shoulders. Otherwise he isn't on either side of the spectrum in Britain right now. If we offer him aid, he'll side with us." Riley answered.
"What of your status as a fire Ronin?" Remus inquired.
"I'll send off a letter tonight. After Minato's attempted attack, I do believe I have enough justification to end my employment with those bastards. Anyway, if we can get this set up, with the three of us in charge, we'll be able to train and recruit plenty of worthy allies to our cause, and we wont have to hide it. Plus we might be able to work something out with the goblins to get our hands on powerful weapons, armor and defensive wards. If we offer them a percentage of village income." Riley explained, which earned excited looks from many present.
"I assume after a few years, once we've made some headway, you will take over this hidden village?" Voldemort stated more then asked.
"I wouldn't mind." Was Riley's reply.
"Lucius, give me a week to get the arrangements settled with Gringotts. Once my new identity is supplied, I want you to draft a formal request for such a creation in the Wizengamot. Makes sure you have obvious meetings with several heads of house to get their backings. We have to word this right, and make sure it's only seen as a protective force against further shinobi attacks, if we make it too obvious, then things might spiral downwards. Severus, I want you to gauge Dumbledore's reaction, and keep close track of the light side's thoughts on this. Remus, Sirius, do the same within the order once it gets going, and keep your ears open. I want to know where everyone stands. Riley… I think it's time you either took your seats on the Wizengamot or assigned a regent, those votes are powerful and will swing things very readily into our favor." Voldemort began to assign them all.
"Right. I think I'll take my seats over the summer, but maybe I'll give them to Sirius or Lucius once school restarts." Riley replied.
"Yeah, what are we gonna do about that?" Sirius asked, knowing that it was pretty hard to run a village, go to classes, and teach a class all at the same time.
"I'll be taking my OWLS next year. I'll probably also take my NEWTS. I doubt something like this will be quick to start, but if I need to I'll send clones. By next year, all of my friends will be ready to take their NEWTS, and they've all gained a lot of power as Shinobi. I'm sure they'll make excellent additions to our force. Besides that, once we get approval I can have my allies in the Elemental Nations begin recruiting rogues, to join our village." Riley answered, earning more nods.
From there the meeting descended into more talks about what they were all going to do, and how to move forward with the plan. If they could get this pushed through then not only would Britain gain a standing army, but when they took over they'd already have a force to keep the country in check. It was decided that the best way to spin this was to make the Wizengamot believe it was purely a force to square off against other ninja so that repeats of the invasion couldn't happen. Also it would bring in a lot of currency for Britain since a hidden village could begin taking missions from surrounding countries, since the ICW had no laws set in place that prevented ninja from being hired to do tasks, so long as they weren't illegal. While they would subtly give Dumbledore the impression that such a force could be used to fight the death eaters and Voldemort, which may get the elderly wizard to at least back off.
With it all decided and preparations put in place, the meeting was adjourned. At home, Riley informed Kushina as to what was going on. The woman was very eager to help, and wanted to recover as quickly as possible so that she could offer her assistance, as she knew a great deal of water ninjutsu, kenjutsu, and was a grandmaster at seals.
Madara readily approved of the idea, as it would give them a way to legally build an army, while Hashirama thought it was a good way to start building her paradise. Even if the hidden village wasn't what it would finally be, having the experience of crafting and running a village would allow Riley to easier build her kingdom in the future.
The next day Riley called her friends together and informed them of the plan. She didn't worry about secrets getting out, as it would only be two weeks before the idea was taken before the Wizengamot.
"A hidden village huh? You think that'll work?" Theo inquired.
"Probably. Villages like that are a staple of renown in the world. To have a ninja village, means that your country is rich and powerful, that reason alone if good enough for Britain, but the chance to use such a thing to get revenge on Iwa, and gain some independence from Konoha would definitely inspire some people to go for it." Riley answered.
"I think it'll work. With you at the helm, how could it not?" Pansy offered.
"Plus, a hidden village like this will allow you to gain some experience in leadership, Riley." Daphne added, which earned a nod from Riley.
"We'll need to step up our training then. I'm sure many of us will want to be a part of this village." Crabbe added which earned some nods from his fellows.
"True… being know as Shinobi in the first hidden village to appear outside of the Elemental Nations will definitely earn our houses some prestige." Draco added.
"We'll need to keep our ears open at Hogwarts next year. The students will definitely convey how their parents feel about this, so if we pay attention we might learn where others stand once word gets out." Hermione offered up as well.
"Good idea Hermione." Neville stated.
"All of you will need to kick up your training to an insane degree. From this point on, all of you clear your Sundays, because we're doing a shitload of training on those days. Remember guys, for those who end up joining this hidden village, you'll be the first of a new breed. You'll be the ones everyone else compares to. So… keep up the hard work." Riley told them.
"What are you gonna call it? The hidden village I mean." Tracy inquired.
"Eh… I don't know." Riley replied with a shrug.
"Well, let's try and think of some names." Pansy stated, and from there they all set about trying to think up village names.
Things quickly began to grow more interesting. Every Sunday Riley would gather up all her friends and mates, and draw them into Kamui, where they would spend a week training. They basically lived in Kamui for a week, and then returned to finish their Sunday which was immensely disorienting for them at first.
Kushina continued her recovery and every week Snape would stop by. Of course with Kushina being as bored as she was, she took the opportunity to talk to anyone about anything. She would chat up Riley, Riley's mates, Sirius, Remus, Madara, Dobby, even Severus whenever he stopped by.
During this time, Riley took her seats at the Wizengamot and got to sit her first session. Her three votes made her an immensely powerful decision maker, and her friendship with Sirius, Lucius and her relation to other heads of house through their children lent her a lot of power in the Wizengamot. While in her second meeting, someone brought up the return of the Gaunt family. Apparently they had heard in the Ministry archives that the old house had been reactivated, and it's vaults had received a sizable deposit. This got people talking as while the house was destitute for a long time, it was no less respected, especially by the dark side.
It was a few days before her third session at the Wizengamot that Riley met with Itachi and informed him of her plans. The clan it seemed was doing well, and integrating nicely into their new home, and Itachi was even spit balling the idea of sending the youngest members to Hogwarts, to learn magic on top of shinobi skills. Riley of course, offered to look out for them if he chose to send them there, and even offered to continue their ninja training in school. When it came to the idea of forming their own hidden village, Itachi was receptive as it would offer his family even more protection and begin to earn them back some prestige. He asked to be kept in the loop and informed her that he would speak with his family about what they thought would be best for the clan.
The following day Snape came for his fourth check-up. Riley assumed that the man knew who Kushina was to Riley. Snape was by no means stupid, and he recognized the motherly affection that Kushina showed Riley whenever the girl was near. Plus the man did perform magical scans of her body, while there were no physical scars from the extraction of Riley during Kushina's pregnancy. Riley had been able to feel residual magic, so she wouldn't be surprised if Snape had found it too. It was on that fourth visit that Riley stood outside of Kushina's room and just listened to the two chat.
"You said last time you were here that Riley was one of your best students? She said you teach potions?" Kushina inquired.
"She is, and I do." Snape answered as he finished up with his medical scan, once again ensuring that no problems were occurring, and that nothing had changed that would warrant a shift in her potions regiment.
"Do you enjoy teaching?" Kushina asked.
"It has it's moments. Potions have always been a specialty of mine, and occasionally a student comes along that will give it the proper respect it deserves." Snape answered.
"Ah I see. I was terrible in school. I couldn't focus and was a bit to rambunctious during the lessons. Though when I applied it to something practical like seal making, I learned to find peace in those more delicate arts. I wonder if I'd be any good at potions?" Kushina mused.
"Perhaps when you are well again, I will show you." Snape replied absentmindedly as he wrote.
"Really? I think I'd like that. Seals were always so calming for me. It gave me something to focus my energy on, it wasn't just sitting there and waiting and listening." Kushina replied with a bit of mirth.
Snape gave the woman a curious look, obviously slightly surprised that she acknowledged his offer, let alone accepted it. Most people didn't enjoy spending time around the quiet and reclusive potions master.
"You're an odd one. I would assume given your condition that you'd be more introverted?" Snape noted.
"Yeah well… I've always liked trying new things, but when I was younger I was really busy. I fought during the third great ninja war, and it left me with little time for things like making friends, or pursuing life goals, or falling in love. After the war, I finally had all this time on my hands, and I just didn't know what to do with it. So I drank, and partied and did all the things I couldn't do during the war… and that landed me in trouble. Led me to losing something I swore to myself I would never lose." Kushina got real quiet at the end, and Riley knew what she was referring to.
"I cannot imagine a greater pain then having a child taken from you." Snape said in what Riley could only assume was a gentle tone, as she had never heard him speak like that before.
"Uh… how did you know?" Kushina asked with a bit of surprise.
"Your eyes… they say a lot about you. And magic like that… leaves it's scars, even if they aren't always physical." Snape noted.
"Yes… it does… … … eh… enough moping about the past. Are there any new changes to the potions I need to take?" Kushina asked as she shook off her sadness.
"No… I do believe you'll be fine with the ones you are on now. Continue with your rehabilitation, and you should be ready for more strenuous exercise next week." Snape answered and Riley heard him begin packing. Hearing that he was getting ready to leave, Riley entered.
"How's she doing? Any changes?" Riley inquired.
"No. Continue with her current regiment and I assume she'll be ready for more activity by next week. I suspect she'll require a change to her current regiment at that time." Snape informed her.
"I see. Thank you professor." Riley shook the man's hand. Snape offered the two woman a nod and then turned and left.
Riley watched the man leave before turning to give her mother a look.
"What? Is there something on my face?" Kushina inquired.
Riley simply smirked and then called out to Dobby and asked the little elf to bring them lunch.
Soon after that came time to present their idea to the Wizengamot. The place was abuzz with chatter as word was spread that Lucius had something to present to the Wizengamot that may offer a solution to their problem in regards to Iwa.
Everyone quickly quieted as Dumbledore gave the floor to Lucius.
"My fellow Lords, we face a grievous threat. For years we have lived in fear of Shinobi attack. For years such fears have been placated due to our alliance with the Hidden Leaf village. Now however… that alliance is strained, and it was due to that alliance that an invading force nearly destroyed our most prominent school. We have lived in fear of attack by shinobi for too long. The time has come, I believe, for us to take a stand and show that we are not afraid. That we don't need to cower behind the Leaf's shinobi." Lucius addressed the crowd.
"What is it you propose Lord Malfoy?" Fudge inquired.
"I propose that we fight fire with fire. I say that we found our own hidden village. One loyal to Britain. One devoted to us, to our struggles, and our woes. The Leaf has shown that it will put itself before us, in times of crisis. Now I believe is the time to remove ourselves from this position to regain our independence from the Leaf, to fight our own battles." Lucius told the crowd. There was silence for several moments before whispering began to spread through the crowd. Questions like, 'Can we do that?' or 'Is that even possible?' began to circulate.
It was at that moment that Riley made her move, everyone in the Wizengamot had to check in their wands, Riley was able to slip hers into the room by providing a copy made from wood style. Her real wand was embedded in her hand where only the eye of Shisui stuck out of her palm. She used Kamui to keep her wand hidden in her arm, and she prepared to utilize a very useful ability she had learned to use recently, Kotoamatsukami
With the slightest channeling of magic, Riley sent a thought right into the mind of Cornelius Fudge. The man was so easily manipulated.
"A hidden village you say? Like our own shinobi village? why…. That's brilliant." Fudge stated with this look of awe on his face like he had just received the word of god.
"But how would we fund such an endeavor, and what would such a thing entail?" Madam Bones inquired as she gave both Fudge and Lucius curious looks, trying to figure out what their games was.
Dumbledore was doing the same, thought his eyes occasionally flitted to Sirius and Riley as the two whispered to each other.
"I have been in discussion with several experts on the situation, and we believe we have a very cheep and affective plan in mind to fund and train a standing force of Shinobi. If we move forward with this, we could be looking at a force of one thousand ninja, within five years." Lucius stated. Peoples eyebrows went up at that. A thousand ninja in five years, that was a decent force, especially when you weren't surrounded by other ninja villages.
"Do you have details you could share with us? I'm sure many here would like to know exactly what the plan is?" Lady Longbottom inquired.
"Yes, and I would also like to inquire as to how you intend to explain such an action to the ICW. The formation of a shinobi village would bring quite the uproar from fellow nations." Dumbledore added.
"Well on that note, Chief Warlock, the other nations are well within their rights to form their own hidden villages. Just as we are free to do the same. I don't believe the ICW has any laws in place that prevent the formation of hidden villages, and besides, all legal hidden villages are assets of the state, such an organization would be under the command of Britain, I highly doubt the ICW will have much to say, other then the occasional inquiry." Lucius stated to the crowd earning several nods.
"As to your question Lady Longbottom I wish to open the floor to Lady Slytherin Gryffindor Uchiwa, whom has helped consult with me and a few others on this matter." Lucius gestured towards Riley. Dumbledore gave the girl a look but gestured for her to take the floor.
Riley elegantly rose from her seat, and drew the attention of all present. Most of Britain was still riding off the high that her hero status had brought. The rest of the world was already curious about her, after all, it's not every day you hear that a witch destroys an army of ninja.
"Lady Gryffindor Slytherin Uchiwa, you believe you have ideas that would speed along the process of forming a ninja village of our own?" Dumbledore inquired, eying her intently.
"The formation of a ninja village is not an easy task. However Britain has all the elements to ensure that such a village is created quickly, and can begin training shinobi right away. I possess the ability via wood style to create the actual buildings, so you wouldn't need money for that. Costs for certain wards, would be handled through the goblins and perhaps a deal can be worked out with the goblin nation to provide such a force with arms and armor, which would help to make such a village the envy of the world. A shinobi village is costly to build, but once you do, it pays for itself quite quickly. While it'll take time to get such a village up to the level required to serve as an adequate force for Britain, it'll only take a few months before the village can start to take in a few missions and begin earning notoriety for Britain." Riley explained to them all. The fact that it would be cheap to make such a place, was a big turn on for many people.
"But who will train these shinobi, you?" Madam Bones inquired.
"I can most definitely assist. I have been training my friends for three years now. Many of you are parents to these children, I'm sure you've noticed the growth in their power. Plus I wouldn't be working alone. Shinobi trained in this ninja village will learn to fight like ninja and magicals. I've already gotten into contact with a few interesting candidates to help in running and training shinobi in such a village." Riley informed them.
"Oh… and who would those be?" Dumbledore asked.
"Well, on the purely Shinobi side I recommend Itachi Uchiha. He is an ex ANBU from the Leaf. He made Chuunin at eight, and jumped right into the ANBU core at ten, made captain at thirteen. He and his clan are currently residing in Britain and as I'm sure you all know, the Uchiha helped to found Konohagakure. I'm sure Britain's own hidden village would receive a fare amount of prestige if it's learned that the Uchiha had a hand in helping to found it. On the magical side of things, I've been in contact with a man from Italy. Thomas Gaunt. He trained squads of Hit Wizards, for the Italian Ministry." Riley explained. She was using the fake id they had created for Voldemort. It had taken quite a bit of money but they had managed to get the records forged and bribed quite a few members of the Italian Ministry and Auror departments to create a foolproof cover story.
"Yes, Thomas Gaunt… we had heard of his return when he learned of his connection to the Gaunt family of Britain. You say he is a skilled trainer… I think that could be helpful, especially if he was trusted to train Hit Wizards." Fudge stated aloud.
"Would the three of you be running this organization?" Madam Bones inquired.
"I think that would keep it running smoothly. I am too young to take such a position as kage, while Itachi and Thomas are too new to be trusted with such a momentous task." Riley answered.
"Cornelius, do you truly believe this is a good idea?" Dumbledore asked Fudge.
"Absolutely. With our own Hidden Village we'll no longer need to rely on outside help. We'll no longer need to live in fear of shinobi attack. I say we go for it. We'll need to set up a system of checks and balances as well as set up a budget, but I do believe it's possible. One question though, how will you help train Shinobi if you're in school?" Fudge asked of Riley.
"Shadow Clones. Lots and lots of Shadow clones." Riley answered which earned her some chuckles from the Wizengamot.
"I do not know how I feel about this Cornelius. The last time Britain was militarized like this was during the last great war. Do we really want to reignite that atmosphere?" Dumbledore asked.
"Chief Warlock, in case you haven't noticed, we are at war. Iwagakure tried to kill our children and such an attack will not go unanswered. We will build this shinobi village and we'll show the world that Britain wont be stepped on like we're a bunch of roaches. We'll prove to others why we're the envy of the world. I say we put it to a vote. All for?" Fudge asked the crowd, and like that, three out of every four hands shot up.
"Well… it seems it's been decided. We shall reconvene tomorrow and discuss the finer details. For now, let us dismiss." Fudge stated, and with that everyone rose and began to depart. Dumbledore stood with this contemplative look on his face, and Riley chose this moment to strike.
"Don't worry headmaster. With such a force under our command, any threat to our way of life can be easily faced." Riley informed him. Dumbledore gave her a look almost as if he planned to rebuke her statement, but he then noticed the look in her eyes, he began to roll her words through his mind. A force to face any threat… any threat… threats from abroad… or even, threats from within, threats like Voldemort.
Riley smiled and walked away. She had planted the seed. She was sure Dumbledore would be watching closely, but at the very least, he wouldn't be actively trying to stop them.
After the meeting Riley went home and informed Kushina and Remus of their success. It was later that day when Riley was preparing to leave. She had decided to go hunting for the other Phylactery, like the one she used to make Deimos. She was about to leave when she heard a knock at her door.
She opened it and found Daphne waiting for her.
"Hey Dahp… what's up?" Riley asked, with a bit of surprise.
"Hey…. Do you have a moment… I um… really need to talk to you." Daphne asked. Riley knew instantly that something was bothering her. She sensed anxiety through the bond. Daphne was nervous about something.
"Come in, sit down. What's up?" Riley asked as the two sat on Riley's bed.
"Well… … look this is weird… I..." Daphne started but it looked like she couldn't find the right words.
"Hey… Daph, what is it, you know you can tell me anything right?" Riley told her.
"I know it's just… you know… you know how my father wanted me to form a relationship with you?" Daphne began.
"Yeah." Riley answered slowly.
"Well… I've kinda been keeping quiet about our relationship over the school year. I mean he knows we're an item, but not how close. Look… he wants to discuss making a contract with you, so that we can be married. I know he's trying turn this into some advantage for my house. The problem is, is that I don't want you to have to pay anything for me… I mean… if it were up to me, there wouldn't be a contract or anything… it just pisses me off… I love you Riley, and I feel like shit because now my father wants to put a price tag on our relationship. My mother said I should come talk to you… see what you think." Daphne explained. She sounded ashamed, and angry. She obviously didn't want to be in this position.
Riley just stared at her for several moments, her face neutral. Daphne assumed Riley would be mad, but the quiet she got was much more frightening. Daphne had been staring at her lap the whole time but finally the quiet got to her and she just had to see what Riley was thinking. She looked up to lock eyes with her lover and found amusement in them.
"Um…?" Daphne began but she was cut off when Riley kissed her.
The two held the kiss for several moments before separating.
"So Daph… how much would you say you're worth? What do I have to pay to keep your sexy ass in bed with me, every night for the rest of my life?" Riley asked in a sultry tone. Daphne blushed brightly as Riley had basically just agreed to marry her. It took several moments before the question truly registered as she gave Riley a weird look.
"Come on Daphne… tell me. What's it going to take so I can feel the warmth of your thighs around my waist? What'll it cost to enjoy the feeling of your firm perky tits heaving against my own as you ride my cock? How much is it going to cost to feel your tongue exploring my pussy whenever I feel the need? Come on Daph, tell me?" Riley ordered in a sensual tone as she kissed Daphne's neck and gave her breasts a playful squeeze.
"Um…. Riley…. I um…." Daphne managed to get out as she suppressed a light moan. She was obviously expecting Riley to be upset. She hadn't even considered the fact that Riley wouldn't care.
She felt Riley's lustful Youki begin to leak into her body. She felt wetness spread at her center, her mind was beginning to cloud over as lust began to overtake her, but she saw the questioning look still in Riley's eyes and she knew she needed to give an answer. Finally she just said the first answer that came to her, "How much would you pay for me?"
Riley stared at her for a moment before shifting into her older form and tearing her clothes off. At this point Daphne was a bit frightened. In all their many months together, she had never had sex with Riley alone before. She just wasn't that adventurous. Sex with all of them present was the norm for Daphne. Katie and Fleur were the ones whom always slipped into broom closets with Riley. Hell even Luna had, had some one on one action with Riley. To be alone, the soul focus of Riley's desires, it was a bit intimidating.
"For you my love… I would pay the sum of the world." Riley answered.
Daphne blushed and then let out a yelp as she was forced back onto the bed. In a swift motion all of her clothes were ripped from her body. Her wand was sent flying across the room. The shredded clothes were tossed to the side, where they easily reformed due to a Reparo charm courtesy of Riley.
Daphne was once again fearful, but with this fear came excitement. She was being bathed in an overwhelming feeling of lust, this wasn't at all like their normal night time endeavors. During those, the passion, lust and love were in equal measure. Here it was mostly Lust with touches of passion and love seeping through.
Daphne knew what that meant, Riley was horny, not like regular horny, but like demon horny. This was what scared Daphne. During their night time fucking, Riley was usually just regular horny, but occasionally at random times she would just be hit by this wave of insane arousal that would just push her into a frenzy.
It was about a month into their sexual escapades that Daphne first noticed it. Riley had just fingered Katie to her third orgasm, and she was looking to be ready to push her to a fourth, when she suddenly stopped and turned to Daphne. Daphne had assumed it was her turn again and simply laid back to let it happen. It was when Riley crawled on top of her, that she suddenly realized something was different. The lustful demonic gleam in Riley's eye tipped her off. She felt like prey, she felt like she had just been cornered by a predator. Riley quickly pulled back and pulled Daphne's legs over her shoulders. She then attacked Daphne's pussy with her mouth. Daphne remembered the insane feeling of arousal that flooded through her body, the pleasure she had felt was unbelievable, the amount of Youki flooding into her body, coupled with Riley's vicious attack on her pussy, ensured that the Blonde Slytherin got off in about a minute. But Riley didn't stop.
Even as Daphne screamed out in orgasm Riley's tongue continued to assault her pussy. The strength of her Youki increased and another orgasm hit her, before the first had even finished. Then another. By the third Daphne was screaming in pleasure as fluid erupted from her pussy, drenching Riley's face, but Riley didn't stop. She felt Riley's tongue slide in and out of her. Each movement was orgasmic, and it was only another few seconds before her pussy erupted for a forth time. This time, Daphne let out a silent scream as she bucked her hips madly against Riley's face, unable to control herself.
Even with Daphne's pussy spraying fluids, Riley didn't let up with her Youki or her tongue.
Daphne seriously thought she would die, the feeling was so intense, and then it stopped. She was able to ride out the remainder of her orgasm and Riley had stopped.
She remember glancing up and seeing Riley moaning. She recalled Fleur behind Riley, fingering her clit, and pussy, her fingers covered in blue magic, which must have been intensifying the feeling for Riley. It took a few moments but Riley allowed Daphne to fall to the bed, where she lay for the remainder of her orgasm. Riley had then turned her attention onto the Veela, and Daphne remembered how loud Fleur screamed as she was pushed to orgasm after orgasm. Fleur was absolutely ravished, yet unlike Daphne, she never broke, she kept pushing for more and more.
Back then, Daphne always assumed that Fleur just wanted to take the most intense action for herself. It wasn't until later that she realized that Fleur was actually protecting her fellow mates. It had been a few months later when Daphne had learned more about Riley's episodes, that she realized just how much the Veela was helping them.
She learned this from seeing what had happened to Katie. One day Riley had another episode and Fleur wasn't nearby. She had grabbed Katie and the two disappeared into a broom closet. Daphne had been walking by when Riley exited with this satisfied smile on her face. She had walked by, kissed Daphne on the cheek and headed off. Out of sheer curiosity Daphne had checked the closet. She felt her magic enter the door when she grabbed the lock, signifying that Riley had magically locked it, so that only her or her mates could get in.
What she found inside surprised her. She found Katie, naked, leaning against the far wall. There was cum everywhere. Thick white globs peppered the floor. Katie herself wasn't any different. She had cum in her hair, cum on her face, her chest, her back. She was positively coated in the stuff. Riley's boy juice flowed in thick globs out of Katie's dominated sex.
"Katie… Are you alright?" Daphne had asked as she stepped up next to the woman, the smell of sex and the feeling of demonic Youki, permeated the room.
"Fuck… that was fucking… amazing." The girl replied breathlessly, as she turned and looked at Daphne. Daphne could see that Katie had been crying but nothing about her said that she was in pain, in fact she looked like she was on cloud nine. She looked stoned off her ass. The goofy grin, the glazed look in her eyes, whatever Riley had done to her, it hadn't hurt her, but it had done something.
Daphne felt her eyes glide down to Katie's ravaged sex. Her lips were puffy and swollen. Thick white globs of boy juice dripped from them. Katie's pussy had taken an unbelievable pounding. Out of sheer curiosity and arousal, Daphne reached down and ran her fingers along Katie's swollen lips.
Katie let out a mewl of delight and arched her back, causing more semen to drip out of her.
Daphne felt a sudden insane urge to masturbate, Riley's Youki was acting as an aphrodisiac and Daphne was getting seriously turned on.
It took massive effort but she was able to stop her teasing, and helped Katie sit down.
A few moments later, Fleur arrived. She gave Katie an apologetic look, before kissing her deeply. She then Scourigified the room and Katie. And transfigured her some clothes. The two girls carried Katie down to the chamber so she could rest. Fleur didn't seem bothered by it, and that night Katie was in their bed with Riley. Though she sat on the sidelines and mostly just looked pretty, though occasionally Riley would glance over at her, and Katie would smile. It was later that night that Daphne finally knew for sure that whatever had happened wasn't at all bad, when Katie finally felt up for more sex. The two had kissed passionately and Riley had fingered Katie to an orgasm.
It was after that night, that Daphne realized that Fleur had been the one to take the brunt of Riley's demonic desires. Now however… now she was alone, and without Fleur here, Daphne knew it was her turn to feel what Katie felt that day.
Riley grinned down at her, her Rinne Sharingan a startling red. Daphne felt her legs forced apart and Riley quickly descended and began to eat her out. Just like before Daphne was overcome by Riley's youki and it only took a couple of moments of that lust filled energy coupled with the amazing feeling of Riley's tongue to force her to cum.
Riley pulled back and looked down at her lover, her eyes glowing demonically, and Daphne could only bite her lip as she suppressed another moan, as Riley returned her attention to her pussy.
-Eight hours later-
Daphne opened her eyes groggily as a dim light pierced through the window. She sat up and grimaced. Her whole body was sore, but she was surprisingly clean. So was the room, she glanced around and spotted Riley a few feet off, still naked and staring at her, her eyes glowing in a dim purple hue.
"Morning." Riley greeted her.
"Hey." Daphne replied.
"How do you feel?" Riley inquired.
"Tired… amazing… I don't know… it's weird." Daphne answered as she shifted her weight and grunted in discomfort. She felt a stinging pain on her hips and back, as well as between her legs. She looked down and in the light, she could just barely see deep red marks on her hips. She glanced over her shoulder at a nearby vanity, and spotted two sets of four scratch marks running across her back. She could see dried blood on them, and she made a face as she turned back to Riley.
"Sorry." Riley apologized as she reached out to heal the wounds. Daphne held up her hand to stop her however and simply smirked.
"It builds character. Plus, it'll make Katie jealous." Daphne stated with a chuckle. This earned a smile from Riley whom sat back and continued to admire her beautiful lover.
"You know… after last night… I think I'll let Fleur handle you from now on." Daphne stated as she gave Riley a pointed look. Riley to her credit had the decency to look ashamed.
"I'm sorry… Fleur made me promise her that I'd always come find her whenever I felt like that… I just… well I didn't expect you to show up last night, and then when it triggered… I just…. Sorry." Riley apologized.
"Why does that happen to you?" Daphne inquired.
"Kurama thinks it's because of how unique I am. He thinks that because I have all this power under such a tight grip, that at certain times when I get aroused my magic takes over and tries to perpetuate itself." Riley explained.
"What do you mean by that?" Daphne asked with a bit of confusion.
"My magic wants me to breed. What happened to you last night… that was me trying to breed with you. When it happens I have to focus all of my energy into keeping my magic from entering your body, if even a tiny morsel of it, slips past my defenses, you'll get pregnant. And I don't wanna force something like that on you. So I focus all my energy into reigning myself in and just let my magic wear myself out." Riley explained with a bit of a blush.
"Oh… Um… I see. Well… I mean, that's good, at least that means that one day it wont be a problem. I mean… we all did agree that we wanted to have kids one day." Daphne replied after a moment.
"Yeah… I'm just… I'm worried. Magically speaking, Fleur's the most dominant out of the four of you. It's why she's able to draw my attention so easily when I'm in that state. However… she's starting to reach her limit. After I ascended to the fourth tail, I started pushing her to the point where not even she could take it anymore. I mean hell… last time this happened she grew feathers out of her arms. I'm pushing her to the point where she's losing control over her powers, and Veela burn things when they lose control. Fleur didn't know what to make of it, she's never heard of a case where a Veela has been screwed so hard that she enters that fucked senseless state, and just loses it. I know once I reach the fifth tail, she wont be able to handle me anymore… hell I don't know if I'll be able to handle me anymore." Riley explained.
"What do you mean?" Daphne asked.
"In that state… all I can think about is sex. I mean look at you… you're bruised. What happens when I thrust to hard and break your pelvis, and then just keep going? I don't want that. I'd kill myself before I ever hurt any of you." Riley told her, sounding worried and slightly fearful.
"Hey… you're smart. You'll figure it out. We all will, maybe the secret lies in not taking the brunt of it alone. Maybe we need to work together to help alleviate those urges." Daphne suggested as she snuggled up next to Riley.
"Thanks babe. That's actually a good idea." Riley stated as she cuddled closer to Daphne.
"Didn't you come here for something last night?" Riley asked after a moment, as she recalled there being a reason for Daphne coming so late.
"My dad, wanted to discuss details for a contract and stuff like a dowry." Daphne reminded her.
"Oh yeah… that should be fun. Let him know we'll chat it up in a few days, I'm going to be busy for a little while." Riley responded.
Daphne was about to reply when they both heard a knock at the door. In a flash Riley was out of bed and in front of the door. She halfheartedly summoned a silk robe that she lazily tied off at the waste, which did little to hide her state of dress beneath it. While Daphne quickly dove beneath the covers to hide herself from view.
Riley opened the door to find Sirius waiting there for her.
"Hey pup, Remus and I..." Sirius began but the scent of sex and Riley's state of dress caught his attention and he cocked an eyebrow.
"Daphne spent the night." Riley offered as a response, to which Sirius nodded.
"Like I was saying, Remus and I are heading out to meet an old friend and talk about some business. Nothing to worry about, just wanted to give you a heads up. I told Dobby to give you an hour and then bring you breakfast, I'll let him know he's making for two. Anyway, see you later pup. BYE DAPHNE!" Sirius called out over Riley's shoulder, which earned a chuckle from Riley as she glanced over to see Daphne's head poking out from beneath the blankets, her face sporting a deep red blush.
Riley just closed the door as she heard Sirius begin to laugh. She quickly made her way back to the bed and snuggled up next to Daphne whom was still blushing.
"So… your parents going to be mad at me for keeping you overnight?" Riley asked.
"If you were a guy… yeah they would. But given their ignorance to your lack of a set gender, I think they'll assume we just had a pillow fight and talked about girl stuff." Daphne answered earning a chuckle from Riley.
"I love you Daph." Riley said with a smile.
"I love you too." Daphne replied as Riley kissed the side of her head. Despite her worries about her magic, Riley knew that there were worse things in the world that could be happening to her. So instead she just decided to cuddle close to her lover, knowing that she'd probably be hearing from the rest of her mates soon, in regards to what they felt the night prior. She'd explain to them what was happening and they'd find away around it, after all, it was her magic, she controlled it, not the other way around.
