Alright, this was something that Tachyon99, Phoenixlord42, and I have been working on for quite some time. It took us forever and a half to get this set up. (Don't worry I only asked for thoughts and idea's to make it and they contributed their time and energy to help it along) Anyways, besides talking your ear off I want a honest opinion on how this goes when it's all said and done. ENJOY!

~WARNING:~

THIS CONTAINS MULTIPLE CROSSOVERS INVOLVING-Naruto Shippuden x Sekirei x Riddick Series x Avatar (James Cameron) x Avatar The Last Airbender/Legend of Korra x John Carter x Gods of Egypt (It's all animals anyways so no character's or things like that, but that's not for a while in this story)

YES THERE WILL BE LEMONS IN THE FUTURE OF THIS STORY

WARNING THIS IS NOT A FULLY ABANDONED STORY AS I WILL COME BACK TO IT IN THE FUTURE IF I DEIGN TO


Summary: The world is at a crossroads. Nuclear fallout is the end of all of the times. Now humanity is on the brink of destruction once again, and now it is time for a lost hero to rise out of the ashes. He does not fear death, and embraces the thought of dying in combat. He has been trained since birth in the ways of combat, and thus intimately knows all of the bodies strengths and weaknesses. As a immortal, Naruto knows that death only comes when it is ready, the question is, will he willingly go? Naruto has the ability to fight 100 men with simple knives, and 30 more barehanded. And all before resorting to other methods of fighting his enemies. He's made not only a name for himself, but quite the list of them.

Unkillable, God of War, Immortal Assassin, Unbeatable Warmonger, Lord of Destruction and Death- you know how it goes; on and on they give a new name, but what the hell is the difference when a life is given and another is taken, in the end; it all goes to hell. Now, he is stuck with a choice, live to see combat one last time, or die trying to change the way that the world sees him. He can live off the land, he can craft the tools he needs to survive, but what allows one to survive is the will to ensure that he sees the next day, the drive that allows him to wake up before dawn arrives, the ability to see the hidden knife of the enemy before it strikes deep enough to draw unwanted blood.

The only difference this time, he has a group of busty women behind him wanting to ensure that they get home, safe and alive.

The only question he has for them, can they keep up with the stress of battle?

A winged animal swoops in from the sky as it notices something sticking up out of the ground. Landing on the ground it notices that the item sticking up out of the dirt is in fact a human hand and begins to peck at it, nipping off the flesh. 'Don't know how many times I've been crossed off the list and left for dead. Guess when it first happens the day you were born, you're gonna lose count.' a male voice narrates. As the animal continues to peck away, it is taken by surprise when the hand suddenly lashes out and wraps itself around the base of the animal's throat where it meets the animals head. The animal is startled by the sudden movement and tries to flee, but is unable to get away from the deadly grip of its now attacker.

The animal continues to struggle and get away, but the grip of the seemingly living hand is stronger than it realized. Out of oxygen, the animal begins to slowly suffocate before it seemingly stops moving and then dies in the grasp of its former meal, 'So this, this ain't nothing new.'

XxX

Pulling himself across the ground is a blonde man with blood smeared across his face and pouring out of a cut from somewhere on his head. His eyes are a lavender silver color showing he might be blind. However this is far from the truth. If one were to look through his eyes they would see the world in a much different type of color spectrum. Everything was a bright white or a glowing pink/purple. As he pulls himself along he looks back and grunts as he pushes himself forward using his only good leg as his other has been broken by some incredible amount of force. He pushes on and ignores the pain as it is nothing new to him and he can easily pass it off as another bodily function.

Suddenly a smell enters his nose and he picks himself up and begins to crawl at a faster pace than what he originally was moving, seemingly rushing forth where he soon comes across a steaming pool of water. Plunging his hands in he pulls up some of the water and sniffs it. With a huff he lets it out of his grasp and smacks the water in frustration. The blonde looks around and notices that there are several other pools that are similar to the one he is beside and immediately knows that they aren't potable or drinkable. To much sulfur has entered the water and it'd be a miracle if any of the animals could do so either. Damn world went to shit so fast he couldn't prepare properly.

He only had himself to blame for letting himself get caught off guard the way he did. Minaka sure did play a hell of a game, but this wasn't how you resolved something when you didn't get your way. Nuclear fallout was probably a blessing in disguise for him now that he thought on it. He had personally tied Minaka to one of them when the news had released the pressing information that various governments would be letting their entire payloads up and thus the whole world was bathed in light. His girls were missing long before this all went down and his job was to find them before something else happened to them. He could only hope he wasn't to late in doing so though.

The blonde waits for the day to pass and simply lies against a large rock near the pools of water to rest. As he is resting he begins hearing certain sounds. Sounds of a predator. Something that was on the hunt. And he was possibly going to be the next meal if he wasn't fast enough to flee. He moved fast to a small outcropping of rocks and shifts them around. When he had a opening big enough, he placed his leg that had been broken in between the closely packed rocks and grunts slightly as he was almost overwhelmed by his nerves crying out, but holds in his noise. Closing his eyes he mentally prepares himself for what he's about to do before he quickly twists his body.

The blonde cries out slightly from the intensity of the pain as he resets his leg, but he quickly steels himself as he hears growling nearby and crouches down. The predators had found him. He pulls out a pair of black goggles and grunts silently as he puts them up to his eyes to get a better look through them to see what he's up against. Only to make a run for it as fast as he can as they begin to charge right at him. The animals leap over a few crevices in their race to their possible meal, but the blonde is prepared for this. Scrambling backwards he moves towards the pool of water and enters with a splash and allows his body to sink into it.

Blood, dirt and grime slowly wash off of his body as he continues to sink down. He watches calmly from the safety of the water and lets out a couple bubbles of escaped air to sink a little deeper. He watches as large shadows appear over the warm pool of water and hopes that they leave. However, they don't and he continues his wait. As the blonde continues to sink, several long fish come swimming out and begin to move around him. Entering his armor, he ignores them for keeping still to escape his pursuers. A couple of them nip at his fingers and shoulders, but get pushed away by the man as he gets annoyed by their impatience.

Or was it curiosity?

The shadows still stand above the water waiting for something to appear, though nothing has yet to do so. Their ears easily picking up the heartbeat of a large being underneath the pool and they keep waiting for their prey. The blonde seeing what was still above closes his eyes and allows his heartbeat to slowly diminish. Hearing the mans heartbeat get slower and slower they leave discouraged at the loss of a good meal with heads lowered. When he feels that his potential pursuers are no longer waiting, the blonde slowly rises up in the water to reveal his eyes, water slowly running down his head as he rises out of the water. Looking around he accepts that they have left him alone.

Once he was out of the water, the blonde rested up to try and regain some energy. Once he had done so, he sat up and began to mess with his leg, not noticing that behind him was a hunting animal. Feeling a shift behind him, the blonde stops moving and gains a look of curiousness on his visage and turns around calmly. Upon laying eyes on the animal he begins to hear it growling, steadily getting louder and louder as it did so. The blonde rolls around and begins to scramble away from the beast to ensure his survival continued. He only stopped when his back came up against a wall of rock and watched as the large animal walked around the pool he had gotten himself out of.

With a snarl, the canine leapt at the blonde. Of course the man wasn't going to go down that simply and he began to kick at it to try and get it off of him. Of course it ignored his kicks and the man lashed out and smashed his fist into the animals face to try and get it to back away. A second smash went to connect, but it missed and the animal leapt at the chance and bit into his wrist. He was lucky that he always had some form of armor on when he was out on a job, and this job just so happened to nearly kill him. When the dog wolf thing realized it couldn't chew through the blondes arm it let go and was pushed back once again with a kick.

Once more lunging forth the man grunted as he tried to kick the animal off of him, only to grunt in annoyance as it bit into his boot and begin to try and drag him away. Freeing his foot with a kick, the blonde reached out and grabbed a rock. The dog backed off a bit and growled at him. And of course it still wasn't discouraged and leapt forth again, only to have the rock smashed into its long snout. This seemed to momentarily stun it for a moment as it staggered for a second from the strength of the blow. Regaining its focus it charged again and was whacked twice more on both sides of its face. Stubborn mutt wouldn't leave well enough alone.

Seeing that it wasn't getting anywhere, it simply opted to go for the rock that had struck it across the face. Wrenching it out of his grasp, the man was quick to rise to his feet, if a bit unsteadily, and glare down to the animal. Reaching to his hip he pulled a slip of metal off and waved it at the animal before he stopped. Bringing it all the way across his shoulder, he threw the slip as hard as he could and watched the animals reaction. It quickly settled down, and then it began to chase the metal when it hit the ground a rather far distance away from where they currently were. The blonde let out a breath and collapsed to the ground uncaring of the slight pain he felt from landing.

He needed to get back up and walk. This disability would get him killed sooner or later, and night was about to fall soon. That's when other unsavory things came out to play, and he didn't fancy meeting them either. Pulling some parts of his armor off, he fastened himself a makeshift splint on his once broken leg, but he lacked anything to tie it together. So with nothing other than the screws that held the armor together, he began to screw it to his flesh instead, wincing as he forced it to hold onto him. Blood of course flowed out of his own self done medical aid, but some things are worth taking on when your own life was at risk.

With his splint made he was able to walk around a bit easier, though he did have a noticeable limp as he did so, but what do you expect when you literally bolt armor to yourself in a makeshift splint. As he walked around aimlessly he was quick to look up as the sound of falling water reached his ears and he found himself looking at a flowing waterfall. Knowing that the dogs didn't drink the sulfuric water he had been in he was curious to know if this was in fact fresh flowing water. Following it to the source he soon found himself in a open cave where it gathered in murky pools of mud. However, what he was searching for was right at the entrance.

Walking over he gathered some in his hands and sniffed if, ignoring the fact he was ankle deep in a rocky puddle. He felt kinda glad he had found this, it was fresh. Drinkable. Usable. He didn't hesitate to drink what he had in his grasp and then get some more to satiate his thirst. He then of course wiped the exposed parts of his body down to get rid of any lingering scent. A lot of the predators out in this new world were hunters through scent, and he could easily avoid them by staying as clean as possible. Oh sure he would still smell, but he wouldn't be as noticeable to them when they were searching for food and that gave him the advantage over them.

When the blonde was finished he turned around and felt himself pause. There was a staircase carved into the rocks right on the other side of the mud pits... why was there a staircase carved into the rocks on the other side of the mud pits? A loud set of barks caused him to stop his thinking and turn, oh great the canine was back, and he brought his friends as well. Pushing himself into the shadows of the flowing water he tried to make himself as invisible as possible so as to not be noticed by his pursuing hunters. He watched as they walked up to the mud and felt himself watching as some type of stinger-like appendage emerged slowly, hypnotically drawing the animals attention as it swayed side to side.

Something was lurking in those mud pits, and his instincts were telling him it wasn't a friendly. The blonde watched as the animal slowly walked up to the edge of the mud. He then watched as another appendage emerged from the mud almost startling the animal away. However, the blonde continued to watch what these things were doing, as the dog creature just stood there and didn't move. That's when it happened, some other predator leapt up out of the muddy waters and bit into the animal causing it to cry out in pain. This action startled the other members of the pack causing them to run away leaving their fallen brother behind.

The blonde watched in fascination as the canine fell to its side and began to shake uncontrollably before it stopped altogether, signifying that it had died quickly so as to not suffer and fight back. So this new player was very venomous and was alluring like a snake in the grass. With its kill secured, the new animal was quick to pull its food back into its lair where it, and, most likely others like it lay, began to feast. The sound of something moving by his feet made him look down where he noticed a skull of what he assumed to be the same animal as the one he watched die sat, however, it wasn't the skull that drew his attention.

It was the very very large stinger-like appendage that he had witnessed kill the dog-like animal slowly moving side to side. This one was obviously very old, and had killed plenty of times. He felt his feet fall out from under him as something large surged out of the mud where it was revealed to be a larger version of what he had watched kill the dog. he was quick to grab a large bone and shove it into the animal's mouth so he wouldn't get bitten and killed like the canine had been before him. He struggled to push the animal away from him, and the blonde watched as large amounts of what appeared to be green venom began to fall out of the creatures mouth.

Yea, he did not want that to end up inside his body. After struggling against it for a few more moments, the blonde let go of the bone and watched as the scorpion-like animal withdrew back into the mud, with its seemingly fresh kill. As the animal moved back, the blonde took this as his chance to roll out of the way and back onto solid ground away from it where he knew he was safe from its grasp.

'There are bad days, and then there are legendary bad days. This was shaping up to be one of those.' the man's voice narrated in what seemed to be an annoyed tone. And why wouldn't the man be annoyed, he had been at the brunt of all the chaos that had led up to this one damn moment in time. The blonde didn't care where he wandered, just so long as it was somewhere he knew the animals of the night wouldn't get him. So he considered himself lucky he found a old temple to hide out in so he could wait out the sudden sandstorm that buffeted his body.

'Whole damn planet wanted a piece of me.' the mans voice seemed to tell himself, 'Can't stay in the open no longer. Can't risk another attack.' the man told himself before he wondered behind a large pillar and noticed what appeared to be a baptizing pool. It'd do for now. With some extra effort the blonde managed to push the rock over where it crashed and broke into to separate pieces. And in between was a opening large enough for him to crawl through and lay down in the pool, 'It's always the punch you don't see coming that puts you down.' the man narrated while the blonde looked around to see if there was anything that would come running from the sound of the crashing rock.

'But why didn't I see it? Of course they were gonna try and kill me. With me out of the way, things would be a lot easier for them to move their plans on into place.' the mans voice stated softly. The blonde grunted as he had to squeeze his bulky armor through the crevice where he was able to lay down fully. However, that gap would have to be closed up. He wasn't willing to take any chances with those animals out there. With some extra effort, the blonde raised up the section that was at his head and moved it closer to the lower portion, leaving a gap big enough for him to have fresh air and gaze through when the night came for him.

'So the question ain't 'What happened?' The question is 'What happened to me?'" the man stated harshly as if he were berating himself for a mistake that had been made, 'How'd they get so close without me realizing it? How'd I let'em blindside me like that?' the man wondered as visions of several women flashed through the blondes visage, 'Somewhere along the way, I got sloppy. Dulled my own edge. Maybe I went and did the worst crime of all... I got civilized.' the man growled out, 'So now we zero the clock. Gotta find that animal side again.' the man told himself, 'Gotta go back to where it all started to get it back in time.'


-Almost 20 years ago-

The saying of you don't know what you have until it's gone is a very hard concept for many to accept or think about. However he had never had anything so he had never experienced loss. He had seen some horrible shit that's no lie, but how can the world be certain when it doesn't even know his name. The buzzing of his phone caused his eyes to open. Eyes that were pale to the point they could be considered blind slowly looked over to the desk he had it placed on. His tanned hand simply reached out and took it and pressed the green button to accept the call, "Speak fast, you have thirty seconds." the man commanded into the phone.

"Your instructions are simple. Retrieve two young children from a enemy organization. Kill all who stand in your way. Bring them to the rendezvous and leave them with the two women. Payment of eight hundred million will be given if you complete this task." a male voice told him simply.

Quick, and straight to the point. Just how he liked his instructions for a under the table job.

"You know my payment methods?" the man asked.

"Yes, you get half now and half upon completion. No more, no less. You have six hours to finish the job. Failure to complete this means that if I'll have to take measures into my own hands I'll find you myself."

-click-

The man snorted, "You'll need a army to try and do that bub." he said as he crushed the phone in his hand.

And with that, he was gone.

-1 hour later-

He now had a set of goggles over his eyes as he watched the sun rise over the mountains. His target was just before him. The words 'Izumi Pharmaceuticals' were painted on the side of several large crates, there was a large building that he assumed was some type of off the books research building. He didn't hesitate to snap several pictures of the crates, as extra incentive in case things went sough. He cracked his neck and stood up and walked down the slope of the hill. His victims didn't even hear or see him as he began to wipe them out silent as a ghost. Their camera footage only caught the sight of a glint of light, not movement, no change or encounters of any kind.

The true work of a master assassin. The only thing that could reveal he had even been there was the numerous amounts of corpses he left in his wake. Walking into the main office as silent as a whisper, the man didn't hesitate to kill all the workers inside before he stole away several dozen incriminating documents of illegal human experimentation, kidnapping, extortion and quite the affair between a certain princess of England and the head of the Izumi family. If word of such actions were to get out both of them would be ridiculed by the entire planet. To bad he didn't care. With his evidence in hand he walked into the lab where he saw two doctors bottle nursing two little infants, and seeing as the children he was being paid weren't harmed, he would spare these two... for now.

With quick chops to the two wet nurses, as was the term of a woman nursing a child not her own, he was quick to gather the two bundles of life and walk out. He was fast to reach the peak of the mountain as he heard an alarm go off in the distance, they'd never find him or these two children, and not only that, a good chunk of their forces were dead and staining the ground red. However the man was sure it wasn't just the two kids in his hands that had those alarms blaring, no, it was for sure the incriminating documents he had on him that were reason numero uno for those alarms to be blaring into the night.

Walking up the path he watched as a silver haired maiden and a young woman with brown hair stepped out, "Do you have them?" the silver haired woman demanded.

"Of course, I never fail to deliver on a promise. In fact I saved you some time, they were just about to begin dissecting these two little ones when I got them. The formula they drank had some sleeping medicine inside it, but they should be right as rain when they wake up." the man said to them.

"I'm sure there's more to it than that, but regardless, you'll get your money." the woman said as she and the other each took a child in their arms and quickly left.

"Oh trust me, I always get my money, be it through blood or not." he said with a snort.


-Six Months before Canon begins-

The same man felt his eyes snap open where he then gazed around before he let out a sigh before he turned and gazed out the window of the train, bringing him to the city of Shinto Teito. His mind flashed to the the memory from roughly sixteen years ago. He didn't even catch those chicks names, but he could care less, a job was a job and he did his part in it. He absent-mindedly sipped his tea as he saw the skyline of the city drawing ever closer. As he changed his focus to his reflection in the window, he frowned when he realized it was not his own.

"Shinigami...to what do I owe this...pleasure?" he asked, his voice laced with an almost acidic amount of sarcasm. The Death God did not even change its expression as time seemed to slow to a stop, "Are you finally here to take me? Or will you continue to mock me? Continue to leave me stranded in this life with no hope of moving to the next?" he demanded harshly at the deity.

"Never once have I mocked you, Naruto." the deity said, eliciting a growl from the blonde when he spoke. Rather than the 'voice-of-the-legion' effect he usually had, the Shinigami always decided to speak to him using the voices of his deceased friends, today talking with the voice of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, "You have brought this fate upon yourself. And-"

"Bullshit 'I brought this on my self'!" Naruto shouted, "All my friends, gone. The shinobi way of life, gone. Kurama is gone. I saved the fucking world! I did what was needed of me and yet I have this curse dropped on me! What more do you want from me?"

"You were gifted with eternal life for one reason!" shot back the Shinigami, now speaking in the voice of Tsunade, "To live. So much was placed on you from an early age that even the bijuu felt sorry for you. They gave you immortality so you could live freely and be happy. And since then, you have squandered their gift by fighting wars, causing disasters, solely for the purpose of bringing an end to your existence. It would be an insult to you and the beasts to take you."

"So what? How do they expect me to be happy? Everyone I have ever known has withered away and died, while I have remained the same. Everyone I will come to know in the future will do the same. Why should I be happy about that?" demanded the angered blonde. However, the Shinigami sighed sadly at the blonde, before vanishing.

"Perhaps soon, you shall understand true happiness, if only for a short time. And then you will see why the Bijuu bestowed this gift upon you." it told him, and with his final words, spoken with the all too familiar voice of Kurama, time seemed to return to its normal flow. Naruto narrowed his eyes as the train pulled into the station, before collecting his things and exiting. His goal was simple. The company M.B.I had recently been growing even more rapidly than when it had first appeared, and it was rumored they would be attempting to buy out the entire city, and already had its own military.

He was hoping he could find a job as a mercenary like he had been a few years ago, or perhaps delve into a little corporate espionage. Sure, he could always fall back on his day job as an author, but that was boring. Though due to his complete immortality, nothing could really pose a challenge anymore.

As he absent-mindedly walked the streets, he recalled as many of his previous attempts at death that he could remember. He had been shot, stabbed, clubbed, beaten, poisoned, decapitated, incinerated, even drowned. Yet each time, his body would heal, or even full-on regenerate and the Reaper would not come. He wasn't even sure he could die in the vacuum of space, but that was one he just never had the chance to try. There was that time he pushed a man out of the way of a bus. Of course he got hit, but he got up moments later, reattaching his arm and head. The man he had saved had looked at him in shock.

He would later find out the man was named Rob Liefeld, and he worked in comics with a man by the name of Stan Lee. Next thing Naruto knew, a comic book character was out, and inspired by him. He didn't really pay it any mind, as the character himself was completely insane. What was he called? Red-Dead? Deathpoint? Deadpool? Something like that. He was broken from his musings upon hearing the sounds of explosions from above. Looking to the sky, he watched two figures, female by the look of them, leap from the roof of one building to the building across the street, pursued by three others. Nobody on the bustling sidewalk paid any mind to the blonde in the crowd suddenly vanishing.

In fact, the slight breeze created by the shunshin felt nice on the scorcher of a day for several people.

XxX

Hikari and Hibiki, the twin Sekirei numbers 11 and 12 respectively, were not having a good day, by any stretch of the imagination. The two were only released into the city a few days prior, and had yet to find an Ashikabi, their destined partner. Not for a lack of trying though. Unfortunately, Sekirei weren't the only ones searching out partners. A few Ashikabi had taken it upon themselves to find and forcibly wing other Sekirei to increase their power in the game that was the Sekirei plan. Though the two were formidable, working in sync to increase their power of lightning, without being winged, they were not only out-numbered, but at a severe disadvantage.

"Crap, they're gaining on us!" shouted Hibiki, twirling mid jump and sending a lighting blast into their pursuers' midst. Not only did they all manage to dodge the strike, but they all separated, coming in on the twins from three sides rather than just one. To their left, Sekirei number 65, Taki. To their right, Sekirei number 38, Mitsuha. But their most pressing concern was their rear opponent. Single Digit and member of the First Sekirei Discipline Squad, Sekirei number 5, Mutsu.

"If we go down, let's at least take one of these bitches with us," replied her sister, who narrowly avoided being tripped up, courtesy of Mitsuha's whip. Taki looked to Mutsu, who gave her a nod. Calling on her power, number 65 began to form a mist around them. Under ordinary circumstances the speed at which they were running would have made this move pointless. However, being as they were so high up, condensing the mist right in the faces of her targets caused them each to miscalculate their last jump, causing the twins to fall down into the alley below. She almost winced at the sounds of cursing as well as a distinct metallic thud that told her they had hit the fire-escape on the way down.

Leaping into the alley as well, they saw Hikari leaning on her sister, barely conscious, a large bruise forming from where her head had slammed into the metal fire escape, before the sisters and the metal structure had crashed to the ground in a heap. Without so much as a word, Mutsu turned to Mitsuha, who smirked as she addressed the two, "Don't worry, girls," she said, rather snidely, "You'll love being winged by our master." Rearing back her whip, the twins braced themselves for the impact. But it never came. Cracking their eyes open, they were shocked at the blonde man standing before them, the whip wrapped around his forearm.

The damn thing was able to crack concrete and he just looked as though it was little more than a mosquito bite...merely a mild annoyance. "Who the hell are you?" shrieked Mitsuha, annoyed at being interrupted, surprised by the apparent strength of the man, who kept hold of her whip like it was nothing, and confused. She knew he wasn't a Sekirei, but something about him didn't exactly seem human either.

"Well, let me think. I just appeared out of nowhere to save two damsels in distress and stopped you." he announced in a bored tone, "So I guess that makes me a big damn hero." he said to her before giving the whip a jerk. Mitsuha was caught off guard and pulled forward towards the newcomer, who launched a circulating kick across her face. Keeping with his momentum, he continued to spin before whipping his hand out and hitting her neck with a knife-hand strike, followed by a punch to her gut. A tiger-knuckle strike to her nose caused it to break, followed by a second, uppercutting tiger-knuckle to her sternum, fracturing it, before a high-speed palm-strike broke her jaw and sent her flying back onto the ground. The sheer speed, power, and location of the strikes had her unconscious before she even hit the pavement.

Mutsu frowned. This man...he was no ordinary human. Despite being annoying, number 38 was an excellent fighter, and this man had taken her down in under five seconds. Number 5 wasn't stupid despite being a single digit, and as such more powerful than all other Sekirei below him, winged or not, he knew enough to never engage in a fight if you didn't understand your opponent's capabilities. Mutsu may have been powerful, but the last time he felt such a presence as the one the man was giving off, was in the presence of his old team.

"We're done here, let's go." he announced, momentarily surprising Taki, before she begrudgingly nodded. She knew better than to argue with Mutsu. He was so respected that even their Ashikabi listened to him, albeit usually reluctantly. Hoisting the unconscious Mitsuha onto her shoulders, she leapt from wall to wall, bringing her beaten teammate to the roof, "As for you, don't think this is over. I've got my eyes on you." he told Naruto. The blonde merely pulled out a small, orange book and began to absent-mindedly read it.

"Oh," he announced, again, rather bored in his tone. "I'm just quivering with fear." he responded blankly as Mutsu narrowed his eyes, before following his fellow Sekirei to the roof. Stretching out to sense if they were really gone, he replaced his book in his pocket, before beginning to leave the alley.

"Wait!" a voice called out to him. Raising an eyebrow, he turned toward the twins. They each wore what could only be described as S&M costumes, each in a different color. Other than that, the only difference between them that he could see was their bust sizes, which wasn't much as they both held decent sized breast sizes, "You're just gonna leave us here? After you saved us, you're just gonna go on your merry way?" one demanded.

"Yes, that's right." he replied, rather rudely too if you asked Hikari and Hibiki. However, they barely noticed the tone over the heat they were feeling rising within them as he stared at them, "I helped you out because it was the right thing to do. I want no part in whatever business got you into trouble with them, thank you...are you both alright?" he asked noticing something off about them right then. The two had adopted a glazed look in their half-lidded eyes, and their faces were bright red. The two could barely keep on their feet. Leaning in close, Naruto was able to see, and with his chakra-enhanced senses, smell the arousal of the twins, and he began to back away slowly.

After witnessing their lightning attacks, he knew these two weren't ordinary humans, and the level to which they seemed to be affected by his presence only furthered that train of thought. Sure, over the years, he had seduced more woman than he could count, but never before was it anything like this. As their legs actually gave in and they began to fall, Naruto cursed under his breath as he ducked in between them, catching Hikari in his right arm and Hibiki in his left. The twins seemed to muster their strength and to the blonde's surprise, he found himself on the ground with each girl pinning an arm.

He felt his arm between their breasts, and under normal circumstances, he would have fought back, but his curiosity was peaked with these two... among other things. He felt himself getting aroused, and he hasn't felt like that in ages. Then he felt a hand grip his hair. He saw Hikari, who was the more impulsive of the two. She suddenly pulled him into her lips, and Naruto felt something he hadn't in a long time... a flare of chakra. It was so string that it was actually visible. He watched as the chakra manifested into a pair of glowing wings behind Hikari.

It lasted only a second, due to Hibiki gently pushing her sister away and taking her place. Unlike Hikari, this one was more gentle. And like before, he watched in amazement as a pair of glowing wings made from pure chakra emerged from her back. He was surprised when Hikari got in one last kiss before a bright light encased the trio, and once it vanished, the twins' eyes rolled back into their heads. He caught them as they landed on him. He wasn't sure if it had to do with the chakra flare, or if they were just exhausted from being chased across the city and crashing into a fire-escape before plummeting into the ground.

He assumed it was the later, though it might have been a combination of the two. Standing, he contemplated leaving them both in that alley. The last thing he needed was to become attached to these girls. But as he walked away, he bit his lip, turning his head back to Hikari and Hibiki. He sighed, telling himself he was just looking to sate his curiosity. Grabbing the girls, he threw Hibiki over his left shoulder, while carrying Hikari under his right arm. Deciding to find a hotel, he leapt up to the rooftops, carrying both girls like it was nothing. The looks on the faces of the hotel staff when he entered the lobby carrying two unconscious S&M twins were priceless enough to make the hassle worth it.

XxX

The next dawn allowed for the golden glow of the sun to pierce the window where a couple beams of light shined down on the sleeping forms of the twin Sekirei. Hibiki scrunched her eyes to try and ignore the glaring light. She felt her eyes open against her will as she woke up and sat up. She noticed that she was in a very expensive hotel room. She looked at herself and noticed she was wearing her outfit she wore she used when hunting other Sekirei, and nothing seemed touched. She wasn't in pain so she knew nothing had happened to her. She did notice she had some bandages on her arm and felt something taped to her cheek, and she could feel the soft cloth of a bandage.

She turned Hikari and noticed that her twins forehead was bandaged and her neck also had a thin swathe of bandages around her neck. She could smell the ointments that were used to try and help them heal faster. Other than that, they weren't touched in any way shape or form. The calmer twin was slow to climb out of the bed. She was quick to recognize she was in a expensive suite of a hotel if the posh and decorative outline was anything to go by. Deciding to see if the man she had winged herself too was nearby and ask what had happened after they had passed out.


As for our blonde protagonist, well he was currently outside on the patio of the suite meditating. He had his legs crossed and he balanced on four fingers while he kept his breathing even to ensure he didn't fall over. He had been in this trance since he had put those twins to bed trying to think of how they had chakra. Humans had lost the ability to call on their chakra thousands of years ago. It was only children he sired in the days where such things would have the regular people worshiping him like he was a god, which wouldn't be the first time it happened. Greece was a fun time when it was going on admittedly.

It was this sight that Hibiki walked out to see. She could clearly see the morning dew clinging to his body and she couldn't even hear his breathing. In fact it made her worry that he had died in the position he had currently put himself in. But she also knew that she had winged herself to this human and could feel the bond she had formed with him. The younger twin walked to stand in front of him and waited. Then the young woman realized he had put himself in a self-made coma which only he could bring himself up out of and she grunted as she sat down in front of him with a huff, "Well, at least you're cute. For a human." she muttered.

She would only wait another five or so minutes before Naruto's eyes opened up where he looked at her. He hadn't been able to figure anything out on how this young woman or her sister could use chakra. He was however a bit surprised when he saw Hibiki sitting in front of him, "What are you doing up so early, you need to be in bed recovering." he said to her.

"I'll be fine, it's you I'm worried about." Hibiki said.

"There is no need to let yourself feel such things. I'll be perfectly fine regardless of situation." he told her calmly.

"Well what do you ant me to do, I can't help it." Hibiki said.

Naruto lowered himself to the floor and unwound his legs with a couple of loud cracks coming from his joints. He then took a deep breath and let it out, "How about we head inside and talk. There are some things I need to know before anything." he said as he got up and walked away. He was quite inconsiderate. He wasn't overly rude, just inconsiderate. He walked into the kitchen and grabbed a glass and filled it with water before he walked into the room where Hikari still slept and then uncaringly dumped it out onto her head where she sat up with a sputter. He ignored the glare she sent at him and motioned to the door, "Get dressed and to the table, we need to talk." he told her before he left.

It didn't take long for the older twin to come in, and her glare hadn't lightened up, and if anything it seemed to have increased by a hundredfold by the time she sat at the table. Naruto ignored it for the first question she asked, "You asshole, why'd you do that? I was sleeping peacefully and you dumped cold water on me for what reason?" she demanded as her hands sparking with electricity. Naruto's eyes narrowed as Hibiki grabbed her sister's arm and attempted to calm her.

"Woman, my patience for you is wearing thin. You're already lucky I haven't thrown you out on the street from this thirty story window." he growled where the coldness in his voice caused Hikari to flinch, canceling her attack. Turning, he faced the girls, his gaze burning into them, "If, however, you explain to me how you use such attacks, and why your chakra flared into visible wings when we kissed, and why those others were after you, I may let you stay." A light flickered in his peripheral vision as a new voice made itself known.

"I believe the explanations should be left to me." a new voice said drawing his attention. Turning, he noticed the television in the living room area had somehow switched on by itself, and he saw a strange man in white staring out at him from the screen. Minaka Hiroto. Naruto knew of him. CEO of the company MBI. A lot of people wanted him on their side, and even more wanted him dead. But what was he doing on his television screen? Minaka decided to answer for him, "My dear boy, congratulations," he announced, "You have just been chosen as the Ashikabi to these two Sekirei, and as such, allowed the privilege of participating in a grand event."

Naruto just growled, "Enough with the theatrics. Tell me what I want to know, or I'll throw this TV out the window, and come meet you in person." he growled. And that was something that Minaka would not like at all.

Minaka only laughed at the threat, forcing a snort from Naruto. MBI's CEO obviously had no clue with whom he was dealing, "Very well then." the white-haired man continued, "You are what is called an Ashikabi, a person with the ability to connect with Sekirei and allow them to emerge. Throughout the city, there are One-hundred and eight Sekirei, searching for their destined Ashikabi to fight by their side in a glorious competition, the Sekirei Plan, my plan." Naruto looked over at the two girls he had apparently 'allowed to emerge' with genuine interest. He knew MBI was making more advancements in modern technology than ever before, he hadn't heard anything about genetic engineering.

"The game is simple. All the Sekirei in the city will find their destined Ashikabi, and fight for them. Fight and fight and fight until only a solitary team is left standing. A fantastic story of love and pain that will be told throughout the ages." Minaka boasted proudly of his master plan. Again, Naruto scowled. But it was then that Minaka finally said anything to truly interest him, "Come now, Naruto Uzumaki. Surely, a legend like yourself can understand combat. I mean we have worked together before a couple times but why the glare?" he asked Naruto uncaringly at the look sent at him.

"That doesn't mean you know me. So, why contact me like this anyway besides to tell me you're obviously off the rocker?" he asked, and got an answer of a laugh from the man.

"Know you? My dear Naruto, you're quite possibly the most interesting player in the game right now. Current in a long line of mysterious men who have authored the world famous Icha-Icha book series. Before I forget, let's just say I have the entire collection and would be honored for an autograph." Naruto groaned as Minaka chuckled, "On the side, you spend most of your time playing killer-for-hire, living life on the edge, pulling all sorts of dangerous and stupid stunts." Naruto was actually stunned. No scratch that, he was shocked that anyone could connect him to both his books and his mercenary work.

Apparently the low profile he usually tried to keep wasn't quite low enough.

"Anyway, this project is top secret. That means that it cannot be revealed to anyone for now, or 'disciplinary actions' will be taken. I'm sure you can handle yourself even if such actions need to be taken regardless. Anyways, good luck numbers Eleven and Twelve, Hikari and Hibiki." he told them before lifting a remote and pushed a button on it. The screen went black. Naruto was lost in his thoughts for a moment before his cell-phone rang. How anyone had his number, he had no idea, but who had it was a very different story. He answered and once more heard Minaka's rather irritating voice.

"Now listen and listen closely. You're currently wondering why you should bother playing my little game. Isn't that right, Mr. Immortal?" the man demanded. Naruto's eyes widened, and he nearly crushed the phone in his hand. How in the nine hell's did this man know so much about him. "At MBI, we have access to the most advanced technology this world has ever seen. You're tired, you're apathetic. But you will play this game." Minaka told him as if saying he had no other option to do so.

"Why should I?" asked Naruto calmly, and he heard Minaka's chuckle.

"Because, it's rather simple." Minaka replied calmly, "If you compete and win, you will be given access to all of our data and technology...If you win, we will do all in our power to make you a mortal man." he said while Naruto's breath caught in his throat.

"You're lying." he said when he could finally speak, "Nothing in this world can do what you just claimed." he growled with narrowed his eyes when Minaka laughed at him, yet again.

"Don't tell me after all these years you're giving up?" he sweetly asked the blonde, "Let's be honest. Isn't a chance to get what you want better than living life without hope of ever seeing death?" Minaka asked before the line died as Minaka hung up and left Naruto standing there, the conflict within him building. Looking to the twins, unnerving them with his gaze, he decided that perhaps it was worth a try. He had really stopped after his last try, and that was decades ago. But he would need to play things safe, which brought up the biggest problem of all. Could he really keep himself from getting attached to these girls? Crushing the phone in his hand he laid the remains of the phone onto the counter before he moved toward the door, motioning for them to follow.

"Come with me," he said, and Hikari and Hibiki could both feel that it was not a request.

Alright, here is Chapter 2


Climbing out of a taxi, the twins looked to their Ashikabi in confusion as Naruto opens the large doors set before them, "Where are we?" Hibiki asked looking around the large warehouse.

"We, are in a place I acquired a few years ago before I began to travel abroad. It's a safe-house of sorts. But for right now, it's now a place for use to get some things I need." he told her.

"What would that be?" Hikari asked him.

"Well I have a transport here and need to load some supplies into it before we head to the real destination." he said to her as he led them to the back.

Hikari was looking around in shock by the sheer amount of stuff inside the building, "How big is this warehouse?" the young woman asked.

"Well you have the standard warehouse size being three stories at ground level, but underneath I have an additional seven or eight levels for things that might come on handy later on. And yes, all levels have something stored in them. However, what we need is located all the way in the back." he told her.

"And you need that much space for what reason?" Hibiki asked him as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"For you to ask a hundred questions." Naruto said.

"Oh yes, king of comedy everyone. This is the love of my life." the Sekirei said clapping her hands together in sarcasm.

"I'll show you comedy if you want, and trust me, it's not going to be the fun kind." Naruto growled out.

"Ok, can I ask something without sounding like a bitch?" Hikari asked before she asked anyways, "Why are you so calm and collected and even respectable at one moment, but then the next you're a total jerk for no reason?"

"Because, that's just who I am." Naruto responded as he located a golf-kart, "Get in." he told them turning it on.

"That's not a answer." Hikari told her Ashikabi.

"Well until we settle on our future placement that's the only answer you're gonna get." Naruto responded.

"Fair enough." the eleventh Sekirei shrugged her shoulders.

"Anymore questions you wanna ask, I'd get them out now before we get going. I won't be answering them once we get to the back just to let you know." he told them.

"Your eyes, are you blind or something, I don't see how you can get around normally with them." Hibiki said curiously.

"A sort of genetic defection. I don't know what happened, but I used to have blue eyes and could see color like a normal person, but then one day something happened and they turned a pale lavender, at least that's what I'm told, and then everything turned into a bright pink and white. Everything not associated with the darker colors blinds me and gives me a headache. Good thing about these eyes is that I am able to see in the dark, the disadvantage is that I am more blind in the day and have to wear high level sunglasses to see properly or even welding goggles to have appropriate sight. That's how much my sight is affected by the light spectrum." he told her.

"Are you a natural blonde?" Hikari asked him.

"Yes, and before you ask yes my name is Japanese, no it doesn't mean Fishcake but rather Maelstrom." he told them as he began to drive, "Now that's enough questions, we have things we have to do." he said as the buggy drove at a high speed to the back.

"What's your favorite food, at least tell us that. I mean it wouldn't hurt to know that much would it?" Hibiki asked him.

Naruto shrugged, "It depends." he told her.

"Depends on what?" the twins asked together.

"Usually it's based on where I live, but seeing as I don't stay in any one place for long, it always varies. While I'm here it'll most likely be teriyaki noodles and shrimp fried rice, or it'll be miso ramen." he told them as he took a right.

"Well at least he's not into barbecue." Hibiki muttered.

"No, that's only when I'm in the states and even then I eat it hardly if ever. I do like fried chicken though." he told her.

"So, you say you bought this place several years ago, but even then the standard warehouse doesn't have as many lower levels as this one is said to have by you. How'd you get it built and with what money?" Hikari asked him as he turned the wheel left.

"I'm a successful investor. And I also like to gamble on the special occasion. And not only that, I am also very lucky when it comes to making money." he told her with a shrug of the shoulders once again.

"How, you can't be no older then twenty?" Hibiki said to him.

Naruto gave a short dry chuckle, "Trust me, I'm a lot older than I look, now enough talking, we're here." he said stopping the buggy and climbed out. Turning to the twins he asked, "Can either of you drive a vehicle?" while he glanced between them.

"Of course we can. We were brought up much earlier than most of the other numbers and learned some things they probably won't know. We learned how to drive so we could blend in when we needed to." Hikari told him.

"Good, behind this shelf on the right is a large shipping truck, bring it around." he said to her pointing to the right shelf next to her, "Keys are in the ignition." he told her before turning to her younger sister, "On the opposite side of this shelf here is a forklift, bring it here." he told her as the sound of a truck being started up was heard, "And you better not scratch my truck!" he called out to Hikari who responded with a nonchalant answer.

"Uh, I've never operated a forklift." Hibiki told him.

Naruto sighed in annoyance, "Fine, then wait by the buggy. I'll be back. Don't touch anything." he told her as he walked away. Walking around the shelf he jumped onto the forklift and brought it around and parked it beside the golf-kart and hopped down while leaving it running. Hikari was slowly moving the truck around the corner and soon brought it to a stop and climbed out.

"Ok, I'll be honest, I never operated a manual shift vehicle before, it was an experience." she said.

"Let's just hope you didn't strip the gears in my truck." he said opening the back of a small trailer that was hooked onto it, "Sit in the golf-kart and wait. I'm going to load what I need and then you will follow me back to the front." he told the older twin before he got back on the forklift and began to drive up and down the aisle and move large pallets of what looked to be metal bars, tubes of propane, several strange machines with belts on them, a pallet of boxes, a large machine, among other things. They watched as the blonde grabbed a chain and proceeded to hook it onto the forklift and then run around the corner.

Coming back he brought what looked to be like a hammering machine, but even then they were lost on what it was in its entirety. Once he finished loading everything and closed the trailer, he hopped into the truck and poked his head out the window, "Stay close and follow me." he told them before he started the truck up and began to drive through the numerous columns of stored items. When he reached the front he watched as the twins climbed off the little kart and jumped into the truck. Driving out he stopped just after clearing the exit and jumped out and shut the doors. Entering a code on the keypad, he watched as the little light turned red and then jumped back into the truck.

"So, care to explain why we need all of the stuff in this truck exactly? I mean I'm not smart when it comes to some things, but a lot of the things you loaded didn't look familiar to me." Hibiki told Naruto.

"You'll see." Naruto simply told her.

"Well can you at least explain to us where we're going now?" Hibiki asked him.

"I'm dropping you both off at the motel. After that I'm going to get a place for us and then come get you when I have everything set up like I want it to be. I'm pretty sure you two are the type to not sit around and wait for long periods of time without trying to find something to entertain yourselves." he said to them.

"You'd be correct." Hikari sighed out, "So why bring us with you to that place when you were just going to drop us back off at the motel?" she asked him.

"I needed a extra set of hands. That and to keep a eye on you two as I don't know your habits and as such want to know how you two work when on your own." he told her.

"We usually try to mind our own business and keep to ourselves. Mutsu and his band of crazy were only chasing us because their Ashikabi wanted to add us to his collection and treat us like toys. I would rather not be in that kind of situation if I'm honest with you." Hibiki said as she crossed her arms.

"Nobody would. From what I'm gathering either this Mutsu's Ashikabi is a young brat who's never experienced life like a normal working human, or he's just really fucking stupid and needs to have a reality check." he stated.

"You would actually be right on both accounts." Hikari told him as he hummed to himself in thought, "The kids name is Mikogami Hayato and he comes from a very wealthy family. He's been handed everything he's ever wanted on a gold platter and knows nothing except what his money can buy. Unfortunately his parents also don't seem to care about him and leave him alone a majority of the time to vacation around the world and leave him on his own." she told Naruto.

"Well, when this is all said and done I'm sure he'll have a different outlook on life." Naruto muttered as he pulled up to the curb and stopped, "When we get to the motel I want you to lock the patio down as well as the elevator pass. Nobody is to enter except for me for when I come get you, got it?" he asked as he turned right and then stopped at the parking lot for the motel, "And no ordering room service, we won't be staying here long anyways." he told them as they got out and left.


When Naruto finally returned the twins were already set to leave. And apparently someone had taken the time to drop off some of their effects while they had been gone. He could appreciate the fact that they wore regular shirts and shorts as him being seen with a couple of young women wearing S&M clothing was actually kinda embarrassing to admit. Driving them to the edge of the city they pulled into a small neighborhood and then pulled up to a fairly decent looking house. It was a two story house and was roughly one hundred feet by one hundred and fifty feet. Climbing out Naruto stretched, "Alright girls, we're here. Our current abode for the time being." he told them.

"And how are you so sure about that? I mean it's nice and all, but it's too big for just the three of us." Hibiki said.

"If what Minaka said is true and you two are in a fighting tournament, then you're going to need more help to win. I'm sure that all those other Sekirei that were chasing you were all that one brats, and if that's the case I don't want to be outgunned in the future. I may not like or care for you, but in time things could change and I don't like loose ends. So I bought this place for the time being." he told them.

"You plan on winging more Sekirei? Why, are we not good enough for you or something?" Hikari growled out.

"No it's not that you are good enough or not, but I want to ensure that those I come to care for are safe. So deal with it." he said to her as he walked up the driveway, "Doors are open, find yourself a room and get comfortable, I'll be in the shed out back." he told them.

"We only had the two outfits on us so we're practically set." Hibiki told him.

"Well there's no furniture in the house anyways so there really isn't anything for the both of you to do, but seeing as you said that, I could use some help." he told them.

"With what exactly?" Hikari asked.

"You are both long range fighters due to your use of lightning. I want to ensure that in case you are unable to draw upon that, you can at least still put up a fight, so I'm going to craft you some weapons to use in battle and teach you how to use them properly and even teach you how to use your lightning with the weapons I make for you." he told them as he walked around the house.

"So explain something to me. How did you afford all this, this couldn't have been cheap." Hibiki said.

"Like I said before, I have money and I am usually a very good investor. This was actually pretty cheap compared to some of the other lots that were up for sale. I even bought the house next door on the right as well as on the left in case of anything." he said to them with a shrug.

The twins were speechless. He bought three lots of property?!

When they reached the back, he opened the door to a large building and showed them around, "This is the forge I set up to make your weapons. Now I already have the idea of the weapons that would suit the two of you perfectly in mind, just don't complain when I'm finished." he told them as he raised his goggles up to his forehead, "I only need the two of you to run maintenance on some minor jobs around this place while I work, other than that, you're free to explore the place, but again, don't touch anything if you don't know how it works." he told them.

"I think I'll stick around to watch." Hibiki said. She had never seen something like a blacksmith forge or the like so this would help teach her something she might be able to use in the future.

"Whatever, just make sure you stay out of the way while I work, wouldn't want to hurt you on something important." he told her as he walked up to a bench, "Let's see, I need 15-20 and some 10-95..." he muttered to himself as he went through his supplies, "No full stock bars but rather the plates, makes it simple and easy to manipulate into the form I need." he said to himself before bringing out roughly thirty sheets of metal for both types of steel and stacking them on a table next to a belted machine. Pressing a button the belt began to turn and Naruto set out to begin working on the metal, sparks flying as he ground them down.

"So, you know how to work in a blacksmith shop I take it?" Hikari said standing next to her sister.

"Yea, decided to learn some things while I traveled. This just happened to be one of the things I learnt." he said as he continued to switch between the two metals and stack them as he went.

"So, any particular way you're going to make us what you want." Hibiki asked him.

"Yes actually. I'm going for both quality and design. Good quality blades are easy to come by, but one that is appealing to the eye never hurts either. I'm going to make some mosaic pattern Damascus. It'll be done by alternating between the 15-20 and 10-95, but the difference is that I'm going to twist these out into a long bar, cut the bar into three, re-stack the three bars, twist them again to get a better pattern out of the metal." he told her as he grabbed his material and walked over to a different table and flipped on a machine, "Turn away. If you look into this light you'll go blind." he told them as the machine whirred to life.

"Why, it's just light." Hikari shrugged.

"Welding machines produce a light that's twice as bright as the sun, stare into that light it's permanent eye damage that nothing will heal." he told her before twisting his hand around, "Now turn." he ordered her as he put his welding goggles on his eyes. The young woman huffed but did as she was told to while her sister did the same thing. The welding process took a couple minutes as he needed to weld a handle to the welded plates so he could grab them without hurting himself while working the metal, but he still did the job and then turned the welding machine off and grabbed his material, "You can follow me if you want." he said walking around and then to a small box that was spewing fire out its ends.

Raising a small lid he shoved the block of welded metal plates in and then shut part of it and stepped back. The twins watched curiously as he simply sat by and let the metal sit in the furnace, "So how long will this take to do? I imagine it's not a five minute job?" Hikari asked him.

"A few hours. The metal only takes ten minutes to bring up to proper temperature, but the real fun begins when we start doing the initial curving of the blades." he said shrugging. When the metal had been heated to the correct temperature, Naruto was quick to pull the white-hot metal out and turn on a machine and then shove it under what looked to be a rectangular block. Stepping onto a pedal, they watched as the block hammered up and down onto the heated metal. He needed a total of about fifty-two inches in length to be able to cut it and then twist it to length. He performed a twisting motion of his wrist each time the block raised itself so that a different strike flattened out a different piece of the metal.

When he was satisfied, he grabbed a small can and poured what appeared to be flour over the metal where it began to melt and boil from the heat of the metal. The twins looked on in confusion as he stuck the metal back into the fire, "What was that stuff you put on the metal?" Hibiki asked him.

"Borax." he told her as he leaned against the hammering machine, "It's generally used as a flux when forge welding to prevent oxidation of your surface and weld. The best type of borax to use is what is called anhydrous borax as it speeds up the process due to its early liquefaction, and leaves little room for impurities to get inside the joints in your weld. The flux from borax promotes deep penetration in the filler metal of the joints, which causes the resulting bond to have high strength thus creating high quality steel for forging. Anhydrous borax, in particular, is the best type to use for this process, as it stays where it is placed on the steel while the metal is still hot."

Repeating the process, they watch as the bar becomes thinner and thinner and much more elongated until it was a long thin bar. Taking a small tool that had a sharp edge (a hot cut tool), he proceeded to cut the bar into several pieces before he gathered them up and let them cool. Grabbing a spool of wire, he then took the small bars and put each one in the fire to bring them up to temperature. When one was hot enough he would pull one out and move to a vice and set it up vertically. Grabbing another tool, he placed it at the top of the bar where a hole was cut out and pulled it down about a half inch. With it in place he began to twist the bars one by one to get a total of ten full rotations on each bar before going back for more heat.

When each bar was once more brought back up to temperature he finished them off with an additional seven twists for each bar for a grand total of seventeen twists for each bar, stretching them to the near limit for such a process. As he twisted, the twins noticed a dark material flaking and falling off. Naruto explained that it was known as scale, which is when the orange hot steel comes in contact with the oxygen in the air which allows it to form. When the bars were all finished and cooled he walked over to a machine with a couple wheels on them and flicks on the power where the machine begins to spin the two wheels on it.

He uses the left one made up of wire and brushes of the excess scale that didn't remove when he was in the process of twisting the bars, and then upon finishing he wire tied the bars together before he welded the ends as well as a handle to the now stacked bars. When that was done, he once again threw the bars into the fire to let them begin heating up. He was hoping to produce a bar about four foot in length and about three inches around so he could do what needed to be done next. When he had the bar to the desired size he then took it to a press and then began to once again twist the metal to form a old pattern from Russia known as the steady katapesh.

Each bar when ground through produces a star pattern, and seeing as he had twisted multiple bars, stacked them and welded them together and then twisted again, that pattern was now going to flow as a spiraling pattern across the blades. This would be his final manipulation of his Damascus pattern before he would draw it out into the blades. When he had finished twisting it he once more placed borax on the metal and placed it in the fire to bring it up to temperature. When it is, he once more puts it under the power hammer and goes at it until he once more has it to shape. Then while it is still hot, he takes the hot cut tool he used when the bars were small, and he cuts the bar into four pieces.

With his bars ready he heats them up once again and begins to finally hammer them down and flatten them out to draw out the length of the blades. He of course also pounds a pointed tip at the end of each flat bar before switching to a heated one so he can continue working without having to wait on another, and it's efficient to do it this way. And when they are finally drawn out, he cuts them off his handles to cool. He then draws out the tang on each on before going over to the anvil and manually hammering the curve of the blades into the bars to give the starting process of shaping the blades.

When that is done he reheats and then uses the power hammer to finish out the curving and even has to re-flatten one of the blades to ensure it didn't remain that way. With his work finished he drops them in a small box of oil to quench them. He leaves them in the liquid and calls them over, "Now, the weapons I am making are designed to follow the natural flow of the body as you twist and turn." he told them, " They'll cut, slash and stab with each natural movement depending on how you hold them. And with proper training these will be some of the most deadly weapons ever designed for you two." he told them.

"So how will we hold them?" Hibiki asked him.

"With the pointy end away from you." he smirked.

He had forged them to be quite thick, meaning he would have to take a good amount of material off but in the end it would reveal the beautiful pattern he had inlaid to the metal. Taking a magnet and sticking it to the back of one of the blades, he proceeds to start grinding it down. He had to rotate, grind, dip into water, rotate and repeat to make sure he didn't just grind down the blade and ruin it. Not only that, but the blades were designed to be single edged, so that meant he was only going to do a hollow grind on the outside edge before he made the serrations in the end with the bevel to finish it off.

When it was finished being profiled he was quick to start on the edge grinding, but he did it in the same fashion as a hollow grind, meaning he had to face the edge of the blade upwards. He did this so he could make sure he didn't over grind into the edge. He would go roughly halfway before he flipped the blade over to do it again, grinding in his depth before moving his grind backwards to gain a significant width. When he was finished with one, he took a marker and marked where he had to cut out some holes and blade catching serrations beveled into the spine. He designed them this way to ensure that any blade user they encountered didn't just bounce off and could actually be deflected or parried.

He of course also marked where his tang would be set and extended it down, marked where he had excess to cut off, and then used a angle grinder to cut that off. With that done he took a small punch and made indention's into the circles he drew before he grabbed a drill and some drill heads. He made quick and easy work on drilling out the holes before he used a grinder to cut into those to make his serrations. With those done he took a flint and powered up a plasma torch and placed the serrated end into the fire to quickly heat it up. With a hammer he proceeded to hammer in the square ends to make his bevels one at a time.

With all four blades now properly shaped, ground down and serrated, he once more placed them into the furnace. Now, it's important to note that with this kind of twisting in a forge, it is very important to normalize, which prevents the metal from twisting back when doing the heat treating. When they were brought up to the proper temperature, he removed the blades from the furnace and allowed them to air cool for about fifteen minutes before he once again returned them to the furnace to once more bring them back up and then dipped them oil. And with that done, all he had to do was let them air cool to get on with his work.

With the blades finally heat treated and tempered, he could finally begin to work on the polishing as well as some ferric chloride and etch in the pattern. He moved from the eighty grit down to the one-twenty grit and really dug in to remove any unnecessary grim off the blades. But when it was all said and done, a set of beautifully polished silver blades were revealed, but he wasn't done just yet. He then took it over to his scotch bright wheel and used it to soften up the lines and crisp up the hollow grind. All in all it was fast, simple, and to the point and he was able to retain the same method of grinding as he did with the belts.

With the blades now fully polished, it was time to etch them. He decided to use a incredibly concentrated batch to do the job quicker, as it would take ten to fifteen minutes to finish the process of etching the blades out. Calling the girls over he gave a knife a quick dip into the chemical and then pulled it out showing several white lines across the blade. The white lines each represented a twist made when he was doing the forge welding, and the girls couldn't be more awed by the beauty of the pattern. When the blades were finished being etched, he decided to spread some white ash across the blades.

It was a very basic form of base to neutralize the acid, so it was a simple thing. Taking some Windex for the ammonia inside it, he proceeded to spray it over the ash covered blades to not only clean them off, but because it also acted as a neutralizer in its own way. When he finished with that he grabbed a green buffing rouge and had a cloth buffing wheel started up to turn the white lines into a incredibly shiny glow and it would allow the dark black lines to remain dark without having to remove anymore metal off the blades. And to him he could only grin as he revealed the finished product of the buffing, these would be one of a kind blades.

Now that he had etched the blades in ferric chloride, he could now proceed to make some handles for the blades. He decided to use some cocobolo wood to form and shape the handles. From what he could see of the girls' hands, he already had a pattern he could use in his mind and quickly drew them out onto the wood and was fast to carve them out after cutting the block of wood into four so he could start to shape them. Using a handheld sanding tool he proceeded to smooth out the thick lines he had made when he cut into the wood. Clamping them both together to get the finishing touch as close as possible, he then used a dremel tool to sand out the rest.

This was so that if the girls were to switch hands with any one of the knives, it would still hold that same exact grip as they originally had before and didn't lose any speed when having to get used to a different grip. With that done, he proceeded to cut each block in half and flipped them around and put them back together. He didn't want the darker side to be prominent at the finish, but he had other plans regarding the former outside. He proceeded to carve out his notches for the blades and then sanded them down to proper shape and form. Upon finishing he decided to use some epoxy and put the blades into the hilts and clamped them all shut.

He used a lot of epoxy to ensure that all the seams were sealed shut where the blades didn't shift around and shake in the hilt where a wrong move could harm the twins. With that done, he hand sanded all the excess off to clean it up and put the finishing touch on. Taking some dark stain, he dipped a rolled up napkin and began to paint over each handle to darken them up, and he'd probably use a little bit of wax as a added touch, but regardless, he had finished his work in a total of eight hours.

"Before I begin teaching you how to use these blades, there is something that needs to be done." Naruto said before looking back to them with a hard gaze, "If we are to be partners, I need to know everything about you. Your powers, strengths, weaknesses, tactics...everything. And you don't truly know someone until you fight them yourself." the Twin Sekirei looked alarmed at their Ashikabi's words.

"We can't fight you!" said Hibiki, and Naruto frowned.

"If you are afraid I'll do to you what I did to that girl yesterday, rest assured, I have far more skill and control then you can imagine." he said. Hikari and Hibiki did indeed remember what he had done to Mitsuha and shivered. Nobody at MBI had told them that there were humans who could take on Sekirei in combat, "However, if you're afraid you'll cause me harm, you are sorely mistaken. So...care to try together, or one at a time?" he asked them with a smirk on his face. The sadistic way in which he smiled at them caused both Hikari and Hibiki to stiffen up in response, "And don't be afraid to use all you're arsenal." he added to them.

Hibiki and Hikari shared a look and shrugged at the same time. He asked for it, it'd be rude not to oblige him.

XxX

Both Hikari and Hibiki were breathing heavily, flabbergasted at what was happening. Their Ashikabi, who was without a doubt the most bizarre man they had ever met, was simply standing in the same place without a single scratch on him. When they wouldn't attack him, he began to do everything he could to provoke them into doing so. He was disappointed at their lack of physical prowess. Though they were far above human women, they apparently did not measure up to his standards, and he told them so, which served to infuriate Hikari, and even irritated the normally even-tempered Hibiki.

Combining their power, the two had sent a powerful, but more importantly, a non-lethal blast at their Ashikabi. When the smoke cleared, he was nowhere to be found, which sent the two straight down the emotional spectrum from fury to panic. They prepared to leap to action to search for him, but Hikari was rocked by a kick to her gut from her Ashikabi, who seemingly appeared out of nowhere. This sent her flying into her sister, causing them both to topple end over end toward the edge of the yard. Regaining their bearings, they jumped to their feet and began rabid-firing lightning bursts at their Ashikabi, now thoroughly confident that he really could handle himself. But they slowly began to run short on energy, which is why they stood, panting, in the middle of a ruined yard, their Ashikabi again nowhere to be seen again.

"Hmm, not too shabby," Naruto announced as he came up from behind the two and wrapped his arms around their shoulders. The two felt strangely comfortable in his embrace, before he shoved them onto their asses, "However, you're both a little too rough around the edges for my taste. I'm a part of this game now, and I do not take losses very well." he told them seriously. He paused momentarily, cursing himself silently as he wished he had phrased that differently. The last thing he wanted to do right now was focus on the many, many things he had lost in his immortal life. Shaking those thoughts from his head, he continued. "Get used to this, you two. By the time I've finished training you, there will be no doubt who the strongest Sekirei are."

Despite his general jerk-ass attitude, both the twins smirked just a bit. For all his anger and callousness, they at least got an Ashikabi who was completely competent. They could work on his social-skills later. They thought for a moment about how many lazy bums there were in the city that might otherwise had winged them. Unbeknownst to them, in a dirty mess of an apartment, one such bum sneezed himself out of a fantastic dream. Back to the matter at hand, Hikari and Hibiki shared a look. Naruto yelped as electricity coursed through his system, frazzling his hair and leaving him scorched and twitching on the ground. As he looked up to his now standing Sekirei, he glared as they crossed their arms. "Hey," Hikari announced, defensively. "You never said this training exercise was finished..."

"Yeah," Hibiki continued innocently, taking over from her sister. "You really should be more clear about the rules." Naruto tried to say something, but his mouth snapped shut as he realized he had no rebuttal for their argument. Standing, he brushed himself off.

"Well, I'm glad we'll get along better than I thought." he said calmly. He definitely liked their don't give up attitude on fighting, "Come on," he continued, motioning for them to follow, "We'll head back inside and get cleaned up, and then I believe it's time for lunch." The two nodded, agreeing wholeheartedly with his suggestion.

As they walked away they didn't even notice that they were being watched. From a nearby building that was currently in construction, a dark-haired woman sat on a high metal beam, a large bottle of sake in her hand. "Now that is interesting," she announced out-loud, to nobody in particular, as she took a rather large gulp of the alcoholic beverage. Face flushed, she smiled a bit, leaning against another beam. "I'll have to keep my eye on this one..." she told herself with a seductive voice.


Naruto stood under the shower head, letting the water cascade down his body, not even caring to really scrub himself as his mind wandered. Why was the emergence of Chakra happening. Why was it happening only in Tokyo, or well Shinto Teito as it had been renamed? And why had he been drawn back? Not realizing it, the blond man fell into a semi-hibernation as his heartbeat slowed down to a solitary beat every five seconds as his mind reached out. Now normally when a Sekirei or Ashikabi was having a reaction to the other and they had yet to find them, they would most certainly meet in their dreams. However, Naruto wasn't exactly asleep now was he?

He was on a rooftop. Wave after wave of cloth was around him. Hanging on racks meant to dry them after being cleaned. It reminded him of the hospital after visiting Sasuke and the teme wanted to fight him out of jealousy. But this time was different. The area was different from the chakra he sensed around him and the white cloth that seemed to move on its own.

Add the laughter and giggling of a flirtatious woman helped too.

Focusing on the sound of the female laughter, Naruto walked toward the center of the roof, seeing a feminine figure standing there, and masked in the shadows. As he got closer, the shadow around the woman faded, and revealed a woman wearing skin tight, hip hugging jeans, and a simple t-shirt with a star in the center where her impressive bust wanted to burst out of for all to see.

"Hey! I'm glad you made it," said the woman while slaughtering over to Naruto while the cloth around them seemed to become more alive with each step toward him.

"Oh? In what way?" asked Naruto while she smirked at him before she motioned for the cloth to come toward her and it obeyed without question.

Naruto watched as it wrapped around her, blinding him for a few seconds in fact, and revealed it to be the only thing she was wearing. A white veil over her the upper half of her face, a pair of white cloth pressing against her breasts, and a short white skirt that did little to mask her shapely hips. She even had a pair of long white cloths on each arm acting like an extension of them and it was clear to Naruto this woman was not human.

She was a Sekirei.

"This way my Ashikabi. Just think of all the fun we can have together," replied the Sekirei in a sultry tone while posing for him and touching herself while giving him a wink.

"Tell me your name." said Naruto with the woman smirking now.

"I'm Sekirei #10 Uzume: The Veil Sekirei. Find me soon my Ashikabi. I don't know how long I can wait to be wrapped in this cloth without you." moaned Uzume while slowly stripping out of the cloth in front of him in her clearly aroused state.

And then the dream ended.

Naruto awoke to the feeling of cold water pouring over his skin, no longer running hot like it was when he first started showering.

-MBI HQ-

(M.B.I. HQ-Minaka's Office)

"You are playing a dangerous game Minaka. More so then ever with Naruto," warned Takami, a woman, who had a look of someone who didn't take no for answer when giving an order. This woman was remarkably similar to one Tsunade Senju...minus the big boobs and super strength the Senju had to back up her commands. She of course said this while Minaka was trying to spy on Naruto with the technological wonders that M.B.I. had at their disposal.

Only to find himself staring at static and hearing the sound it made when getting nothing from the recording devices.

"I am well aware of that Takami-chan. Which is why I preferred to have Naruto-kun on our side over being in his path should he be displeased with us." replied Minaka before focusing on the data gathered from Naruto's winging of the twins.

Aside from the usual bio-metrics the system took when a winging occurred, the data also had genetic samples from when Naruto had taken the M.B.I. card gifted to him by the girls which all Sekirei has on them prior to their winging to give to their Ashikabi. Even now, such DNA analysis from the blonde's genetic code was beyond anything ever seen, and would likely ever be seen in the years following the present time. Hell, it was like comparing Sekirei technology to human technology in terms of how advanced one was over the other. Naruto's clearly superior genetic makeup made humans look like monkeys throwing feces at each other by comparison on the evolutionary scale.

"Just make sure you keep my kids out of this. I don't want one of the world's greatest prison escape artists and possibly the world's most lethal assassin to come after them." the woman said.


And that's gonna be a wrap. Please leave a LIKE/FAVORITE/FOLLOW and don't forget to also post a COMMENT/REVIEW that tells me you love the story.

1. Shout-out to Man at Arms Reforged for designing and building of the Riddick Ulaks from the Chronicles of Riddick, I am glad to have been able to use this design/build in a story of mine. I am a big fan of the M.A.A.R series so this dialogue was strictly all you guys doing the thing you do best.


Chapter 3 is up and out.


An explosion rocked the ground as the electric attack struck. Dust and debris were thrown into the air as Hikari and Hibiki placed their hands back at their sides. They could practically feel their Ashikabi staring at them from behind. Judging them. They could sense his disapproval, "Better, much better." he said after a moment, but before they could breathe their sighs of relief, he continued, "But still, you need to work on accuracy and subtlety in your moves. You can't always win by trying to simply blow your target up." he told them with a snort. He looked around at the numerous wooden targets that had been blown to bits, taking special care to avoid the smoldering, burning pieces, which his twin Sekirei were quick to notice.

"Uh, Naruto, I don't know if you noticed, but lightning tends to make things, you know...explode..." Hibiki deadpanned, causing her Ashikabi to sigh and rub his temples in frustration. He had been trying to get these two to grasp his concept for the last three days, and got nothing.

"And yet you can shock me without blowing me to bits." he replied, causing them both to blush and attempt to avoid meeting his gaze, "Lightning is wild, and it is strong, but you need to focus not on frying your target. Instead try to focus on piercing it." he told the twins while sliding a senbon needle out of his sleeve. With surprising ease to the twins, he casually tossed it over his opposite shoulder. It flew through the air and sank into the wooden cutout, directly in the target area painted to represent the human heart. "When you can do that with your lightning, then we will move on." he said smirking.

Hikari took a step back in shock while her sister's reaction was a jaw drop. Accuracy like what he had shown had to have taken decades to master, yet their Ashikabi couldn't have been older than his late twenties. Naruto, however was more concerned with his Sekirei's lack of progress. They had only ever practiced making their lightning attacks larger and stronger. Now that they were being made to go the other way, it was as if everything that they had learned about their powers had suddenly been erased from their minds. Call him impatient, but he had expected a little more after three days of work. He couldn't figure out what was wrong. Was it his Sekirei?

Was it him? Or some combination of the two? Perhaps he needed to change his tactics. He had been trying to distance himself from the two, going so far as to dangle them out his thirty-story window by their ankles that morning when he found them in his bed...again. Maybe he was being too harsh, he thought. Eyes widened as he realized what thought had just crossed his mind and shook it from his head. Despite his best efforts, he was already becoming attached. And that was bad. Very bad. But why was he doing so? How? His mind flashed back to the moment the two emerged, and the flair of chakra. His eyes narrowed as he played through the memory and watched the twins blow another target to smithereens.

There was only one way to test his new theory, much as he prayed he was wrong. Setting up two more targets, he turned to his Sekirei. He walked toward them, and as they set themselves up for another attack, he held up his hand, "Hold on, I have something I want to try." he said calmly. The twins looked confused, until he wrapped his arms around them, pulling the very surprised pair in for two, very passionate kisses. They felt the warmth of their Ashikabi flow through them and their power surged. Naruto on the other hand, felt something far different.

It was as if their chakra latched onto his own, flowing from their bodies and into his, and vice versa. And despite his alarmed confirmation of his theory, that the Sekirei's abilities may be linked to how close they were with their Ashikabi, a strange calm washed over him. Pulling away, he looked at the almost dazed look on each of his Sekirei's faces. Moving himself out of the way, he pointed to the small target area over the cut-out's heart. "Hit the target," he said, and instantly, he watched the twins acted in synchronization, their pupils dilating as they viewed the wooden stand-in. This time, they did not destroy the cut-out completely, instead punching a hole through it, the size of a human head, right over the heart. They still had a long way to go, but it was a very impressive development from mere moments ago.

Despite the pride his Sekirei were feeling, which oddly enough he felt as well, he was concerned. If the Sekirei's power and skill increased based on the bond between them and their Ashikabi, which he had essentially just confirmed, that meant ordinary training would do little for them. It also meant that to win this game, he would have to actually let himself get close to the two of them, and even then, there was no guarantee that MBI could do what Minaka said, or if he would even follow through on his word anyway. Could he take that risk, only to have Hikari and Hibiki grow old and die before his eyes, while he stayed the same. Was it really worth it. Taking a deep breath, he steeled himself, and his eyes softened.

"The more important question...could I resist if I needed to..." he thought as he looked at the girls. Hikari was almost high off the rush of both his kiss and the act of controlling their powers to a greater extent than before. Hibiki, who was usually more subdued than her sister, seemed equally pleased with the events of that morning's training. Before he could ponder more on these thought, his cellphone rang. Grabbing it he accepted the call, "You have thirty seconds." he said into the phone.

"Naruto-kun, it's nice to speak with you again." Minaka's voice spoke in his ear. Naruto of course wanted to growl in annoyance, but let Minaka continue speaking, "Listen, we have a small problem here. Someone just sabotaged our security and made away with something very important. However we can control that part easily. It's the second thing that happened that we need your help with." Minaka spoke calmly.

"Well what is it?" he asked.

"A single digit Sekirei was somehow tampered with and for some reason she emerged on her own. We wish to help her try and emerge normally, but to do that we need to find her. Our trackers have said she is fleeing towards the park near the eastern outer edges of the city. Find her and bring her back to us unharmed. You'll be payed of course for doing so, but she must be alive and in healthy condition in order for us to help her reclaim her ability to emerge like any other Sekirei." Minaka told Naruto.

"Name? Describe." Naruto told Minaka.

"Her name is Akitsu, she's the seventh Sekirei and her ability is the absolute control over Ice. She has silver hair and hazel eyes. That should be enough for you to find her as there are only three others in the city with those exact descriptions. And two of them are at the southern part of the city while the other is somewhere in the northern sector. While I don't mind things happening all willy dilly I do not like the fact that one of my workers tried to sabotage a key player in my game. I'll pay you double the fee for finding her early. Best hurry, you only have thirty minutes to get her." and with that the line went dead.

"Ladies, I believe training is finished for the day. I have business to attend to, but you are free to have a day on the town while I'm gone. My wallet is in the kitchen on the counter. You'll be sitting pretty where money is concerned so go out and get some furniture for the house and get some things or yourselves." he told them as he prepare to leave. He turned to get moving, but after a moment's thought about what Minaka said, and what his own Sekirei had almost had to go through, his face marred to a frown as he looked over his shoulder, "...And if you happen to find any Sekirei in danger of being forcibly winged...fry the offending Ashikabi." Lightning began to arc between the sisters at his demand and they nodded in confirmation. Naruto turned, before leaping off the edge of the roof they were on, seeming to disappear into the shadows of the alley below.

All three were so wrapped up in their own thoughts, they never noticed the masked figure watching them intently. Her initial thoughts on this Ashikabi may have been off, Homura noted, turning and beginning to walk away. She had to admit, it would be nice to have some help watching out for the unwinged Sekirei though.(1)

XxX

Climbing out the taxi after telling the driver to wait, he walked into the park where his target was said to currently be. He was currently wearing a black shirt and loose black pants with his shinobi tools pouch on his hip, 'According to the tracking chip's information on Akitsu, her last known whereabouts was in this general area, and should be right around...there she is!' thought Naruto, as he saw the Sekirei in question on a bench, her head down, and wearing nothing except a lab coat with a blood stain on it.

Her eyes were empty. They were of a person that had given up hope. Given up on life. Naruto guessed she was possibly a day or two from ending her life in the belief that death would be merciful. For a moment, Haku's form appeared in his mind, and Naruto fought back the memories of the past failure of not being able to save his first true friend. Shaking his thoughts of that place in time, Naruto walked over to Akitsu, and knelt down on one knee to get a good look at her. She in turn raised her head to look at him, a sense of curiosity showing in the lifeless eyes of one wishing what could not be obtained that others had, and yearned for deeply.

"Who...Who are you?" asked Akitsu with Naruto staying silent while cupping her cheek and looking at the seal on her forehead.

She must have noticed because Akitsu looked down again and looked like she wanted to die again. Naruto looked at her with sorrow in his eyes, something she couldn't see due to her not looking back up at him, and Akitsu clearly thought he would say to Hell with her before leaving.

"Oh Akitsu, what did that dumb doctor do to you?" asked Naruto though the question was more to himself then her while looking at the marking on the woman's forehead.

Akitsu gained a look of surprise on her face that someone outside of M.B.I. knew her name, and had yet to leave upon seeing the mark that she was forever declared a broken Sekirei. A "scrapped number" as it were and could never be winged because of what her Adjuster did that prevented any potential Ashikabi from winging the broken Sekirei. And yet...here was this man, kneeling in front of her, speaking her name softly, sadly, like he cared, and wanted to know what the Adjuster did that cause the emptiness she felt since being broken.

"How...How do you know my name? Are you from the...M.B.I. lab? Are you here to take me back?" asked Akitsu while Naruto stared at the symbol that personified her despair.

Naruto shook his head, "No. I'm not from M.B.I. or loyal to them in anyway Akitsu." he told her softly as he looked her in the eyes, "But Minaka did ask me to take you back to see if he could help you. If he can you could find yourself a good home." he told her.

"I have no home... I am... broken... I'm... a failure..." she said in a voice that was so broken that without himself even realizing it water began to gather in Naruto's eyes, no matter how long he walked this earth, he was a sucker for sob stories of any kind. If anything his inability to listen to someone as they poured out there pain and soul had only gotten worse with time. Which really sucked for him because there were a lot of people who had it bad in this day and age. He generally hid that side of him by keeping his distance from everyone, but it had always been there, waiting for an opportunity to come out.

It seemed that moment had finally come.

He cupped the woman's face and lifted it so she was forced to make eye contact, "You are not a failure," he said, watching as the woman blinked at his proclamation. Naruto had the feeling that was the most emotion she had ever shown since whatever had happened to leave her in this state. He could tell she was not only surprised by his words, but more then likely by the conviction in his voice. Hopefully, it would help her snap out of this stupor, "I don't know what idiot told you that, but you are most definitely no failure."

"But I can't be winged," she said, as if that answered everything, "A failure like me will never be able to find an Ashikabi. I'm useless... a discarded tool..."

"My purpose is now gone, Zabuza-sama has no need for a broken tool. I need you to do me a favor, and kill me."

He could hear the words of Haku, the person who had first started him on the path to true strength ring through his head at the light haired Sekirei's words. It had been Haku that told him about true strength, how it only came from protecting the things that were most important to you, those things that you held dear to your heart. Hearing those words, so similar yet so different from the person that told him what it meant to be strong caused a sharp pain to enter his chest. It was an almost physical pain that Naruto forcefully shunted to the side so he could focus on the woman before him.

'I may not have been able to save you, Haku,' he thought to himself with gritted teeth. 'But I'll be damned if I let her end up in your position.' he thought to himself bitterly. He would not let this girl become like Haku, working for a person treated her as nothing more then a tool – even if Zabuza had not truly thought that he still acted as though he had until the end – that could easily be disposed of when it's purpose was finished. He would get this girl to understand that she was not broken, she was not a discarded tool. "Just because you can't be winged doesn't mean you don't have worth." Naruto said adamantly, the conviction in his words once more making the woman blink. "A persons worth is not determined by something so menial. You have something that is special only to you, something no one else has but you, something that makes you unique. That is what makes you special, and is what gives you worth."

"But I -"

"Come with me." Naruto said, once more surprising the woman whose opened mouth quickly snapped closed, "Come with me and I'll prove that you are worth something. I'll prove that you can shine just as well as any other Sekirei."

The woman looked at him for several seconds before speaking. "Ok..."

"Ah... I didn't get your name." Akitsu said.

"Naruto. Uzumaki Naruto is my name." Naruto told her softly.

"Naruto-sama..." Akitsu whispered to herself.

"Pleasure to meet you, Akitsu-chan." Naruto told her.

As he went to help her stand up a voice drew his attention as three signatures entered his sensing range, "There she is Yomi, let's grab her and get the hell out of here." a female voice said in a excited tone.

"Bring her to Master Mikogami." a male tone commanded.

"Of course Mutsu, but first there's someone we need to deal with." Yomi said.

Naruto heard Mutsu sigh before he addressed him personally, "Please move away from this woman sir. Our master wishes to speak with her in a private location and I would rather avoid removing you myself if it can be avoided," said Mutsu with a laziness in his tone that sounded not unlike Shikamaru and holding his sheathed sword in hand ready to be used.

Naruto sighed and looked at Akitsu, "Wait here." he told her silently as he stood, "I see your manners and somewhat lazy nature haven't improved since we last met Mutsu. I hope your still prepared for the upcoming ass-kicking I'm about to deal you." replied Naruto with Mutsu going stiff for a moment before getting into his sword stance.

"So you know about Sekirei and most likely the Sekirei Plan in general. Meaning you are an Ashikabi," declared Mutsu while slowly drawing his sword, the sound of it meant to intimidate the unknown blonde, and make him reconsider grabbing Akitsu away from being Mikogami newest Sekirei among the collection.

"Of course I'm a Ashikabi. I'm also the one that stopped you from forcibly winging a set of twin Sekirei a few days ago." Naruto said as he turned around to face them.

"So, this was the human that denied our Ashikabi-sama his prize." a young woman with a scythe, he assumed this was Yomi, growled out.

"Have the lot of you even learnt your lessons?" he asked them.

"I'm going to enjoy killing you." Yomi said gleefully.

"Extremely bad timing." Naruto drawled out, "Just try to run when you realize how much you just fucked up." Naruto said to her before he held his hands together and summoned Kubikiribōcho in a puff of smoke confusing the aliens. The large head cleaving blade appeared within a burst of smoke. He looked at the weapon for a few seconds, before putting it on his back, positioning at an angle for easy access. It was a bit cumbersome, part of the reason Naruto usually kept it inside of a storage seal was because of how large it was, which made it difficult to carry. Another reason was because normal people simply did not walk around with a large blade as tall as they were.

He then reached into one of his back pouches and withdrew three, small black balls. They were very unassuming, but Naruto knew better. While smoke bombs were not dangerous in and of themselves, they were dead useful, as he was about to tossed the balls down onto the floor directly in front of the confused Mutsu, "What the –"

The smoke bombs exploded, expelling large layers of thick, black, smog that swept over the area. It covered every corner of the large park causing the Sekirei to begin coughing. With their vision hampered, Naruto knew it was time to act as he jumped into the smoke. The black smoke enclosed on him from all sides, cloying and thick. Were it not for the fact that he was using chakra to filter his lungs of the acrid smoke, he would have no doubt started hacking up a lung. As thing were, he could hear the others who had been caught within the smoke coughing as well. One, two, three...

Three?

Naruto frowned. There were only three people coughing, two of them could be heard off to his left. They were close together, Mitsuha and Yomi, he was sure. The other one was directly in front of him, and judging from the feminine tone it could only be Akitsu. That meant the one who was missing was Mutsu. His frown deepened. Mutsu was the most dangerous of the Sekirei after Akitsu. He couldn't afford to have the number zero five after him as he made his escape, not with the limited amount of power he could bring out without alerting MBI to his own unique status.

That meant he had to trap the man another way.

It was time to use one of his more passive abilities.

Carefully as he could, Naruto let a small crack open up within his chakra coils. Before the chakra could become a maelstrom, he began expelling it out of every tenketsu on his body in mass quantities as he released it in a familiar fashion known only to him, sharpening the element to its finest point. Wind. It was the very first element Naruto had ever gained mastery, true mastery, not that shitty excuse for mastery that most ninja considered mastering an element. Naruto had trained quite extensively with his wind chakra during the course of the Fourth Great War.

He had, in time, become so in tune with his own element that at the height of his power he had been able to create elemental attacks without the need for jutsu. One might be able to say he was capable of using ninjutsu without handseals, but that phrase didn't really do what he was capable of justice. Naruto did not need to use ninjutsu. With the wind at his every beck and call, all he had been required to do was use his chakra and reach out to it.

Now he was no longer at the height of mastery anymore. Disuse had led to his abilities degrading greatly over time. But he still had the ability to use some of his less intensive abilities, one of them being the passive sensory abilities he had created near the beginning of the war. It was relatively simple to use, by expelling wind chakra from every tenketsu in his body and expanding the wind outwards into a hemisphere shaped dome, Naruto could gain an image of everything within that dome no matter how small. Even the most minute of movements did not escape his notice while the jutsu was active, the twitch of a finger, the scuffle of a boot, the flick of a wrist or tilt of a head; he could 'see' all of it.

Of course the passive wind sonar had its limitations. He could only extend it a certain distance. When he was at the peak of his powers, Naruto was capable of extending the ability up to a radius of five kilometers. Since he was so out of practice, that ability had been reduced to a little less than five hundred meters. It was just another reminder that the once great power he had was now gone, due in no small part to his own machinations. Still, it was enough for what he needed to do here. Mutsu couldn't have gone far.

And he was right. Naruto found him quite easily standing atop a building above the smokescreen. He was close. Just a few meters away. But how to keep the man from chasing after him and Akitsu. He needed something that would either hold him off long enough to escape, or distract him long enough that he didn't even notice them escaping. Reaching into one of his pouches, Naruto rummaged around, before eventually finding something that he felt would work.

Shuriken and ninja wire, a ninja's two best friends. With a quickness that should not be possible, and a surety of movement that anyone capable of watching would find enviable, Naruto attached a long strand of ninja wire to each shuriken. Then with a flick of his wrist, he launched them at Mutsu with speeds that were far faster than anything a Sekirei was capable of.

With his passive wind sonar still active, Naruto could watch as the six shuriken burst out of the smoke screen. They traveled through the air, creating a whistling sound as they cut through the wind. Mutsu saw them coming, Naruto could see his head snap up from staring into the smoke screen to look at the weapons. As predicted, the Sekirei tried to evade the projectiles at first, jumping to the left in order to dodge them. With a minor application of chakra and a few gentle tugs, the shuriken shifted direction and were once more soaring towards the male Sekirei. He could see Mutsu grimace, no doubt coming to the conclusion that he would have to deflect the projectiles instead of dodge them.

Good. Everything was going exactly like Naruto had hoped.

Mutsu slid the sword at his side from its sheath, the movement smooth and nary making a sound. As the six pointed ninja stars closed in on the Sekirei's position, his sword lashed out to deflect them.

That was when Naruto made his next move. Channeling more chakra up the ninja wire, Naruto changed its nature to wind and allowed it to surround the shuriken. However, this was not a cutting wind like most elemental jutsu are, no, instead Naruto was simply using the wind to create air currents, which he then used to guide the shuriken on the path he wanted them to take.

The look on Mutsu's face was almost priceless when all six shuriken suddenly veered off course. Two them of split to the left and right respectively, while the other three went over his head at various angles. The three that went over head then arced back around and tried to impale themselves into the back of Mutsu's head. It didn't work; the male Sekirei had spun on a dime, his sword flashing out with expert precision to knock the shuriken from the sky. But that was alright, those three were just a distraction. The last shuriken Naruto had thrown had gone low, and this was the first shuriken that reached Mutsu.

It wove between the number zero fives legs, spinning and arcing in an intricate figure eight pattern several times over. Because it was so low to the ground, Mutsu didn't even notice until he could feel the cold steel tightening around his legs. When he finally did notice, it was already too late. Naruto yanked on the wire that particular shuriken was attached to, tightening it to the point that Mutsu's legs snapped into place. Like a tree that no longer had its roots supporting it, Mutsu began to topple over, but not before the two shuriken that had moved around his left and right swooped in and wrapped around him several times, pinning his arms to his torso.

The entire process only took five seconds. By the time Mutsu was tied up in ninja wire, Naruto had covered the distance between him and Akitsu. Without hesitation he grabbed her hand and began running out of the smokescreen. Naruto charged out of the smokescreen with Akitsu stumbling behind him trying to catch her breath. However, they weren't able to get to far as a slash of wind ripped his back open causing Naruto to fall with a cry of surprise. As if to mock his thoughts, Mutsu and the other Sekirei belonging to Mikogami came running out of the smoke.

"Ashikabi-sama!" Akitsu cried out and tried to run over to him, only to cry out when some wires managed to wrap themselves around her, "Ah, let me go!" the ice Sekirei cried out, "Ashikabi-sama!" she pleaded.

"Now, now," Yomi chided with an almost manacle grin, "We can't have you acting out anymore. You've already given us enough trouble as it is. Just be a good little Sekirei and let us take you to our master. You'll make a wonderful addition to his collection." she sneered.

Mutsu sighed, "We've wasted enough time here."

Naruto wondered what he should do. He needed a plan if he wanted to get out of this without revealing too much of his power.

"Keep her bound so she can't get away. It's bothersome, but we don't want her trying to escape again." Mitsuha snorted.

Unfortunately Naruto couldn't think of anything. So long as Akitsu remained bound and Mutsu remained near, the amount of limiters Naruto was able to place on himself diminished. But that didn't mean he was helpless.

"You jerks, let me go, my Ashikabi-sama needs me!" Akitsu cried.

Hearing her pleading cries, Naruto's fingers clenched around the hilt of his blade, which had miraculously remained in his grasp while he was experiencing the cut. The muscles in his arms flexed as he pushed himself into a crouch, legs bunched under him, fingers splayed. He looked like some kind of jungle predator preparing to pounce. It was a surprisingly accurate analogy.

Mutsu nodded, satisfied. Neither he nor the others saw Naruto as the blond immortal prepared to attack.

Chakra once more flowed through his body like a tidal wave. Naruto grabbed the energy and forced it into submission. He took hold of it, directed it, the energy flowed down his legs and to the bottom of his feet, where he directed untold amounts of the mystical energy to in what would be a move that was equal parts brilliant as it was stupid.

One of the most basic chakra control techniques that ninja are taught when they first became genin is the tree climbing exercise. It's called tree climbing, but in truth it would be more accurate to say that it was tree walking. By adding chakra to the bottom of the feet, one could stick themselves to any vertical surface and walk up it as if they were walking on the ground, thereby defying gravity. The trick was getting the right amount of chakra to the bottom of the feet, which was the hardest place to direct ones chakra to. Too little chakra and you risked falling off. Too much chakra and you risk blasting yourself off the surface, which is exactly what happened to Naruto.

With the utterly ridiculous amount of chakra Naruto was channeling to the bottom of his feet, which was far more chakra than most ninja ever gained in their lifetimes, what happened next was only natural. Newton's third law of motion insured that. With the amount of kinetic energy the chakra was creating under his foot, Naruto was blasted forward with enough speed that his body was a complete blur, the ground where he had blasted off cracked under the pressure from the amount of force he put on it.

Mutsu heard the sound, so did the others, but he was the only one quick enough to react. Even then the only thing he could do was turn his head as Naruto's blurred form past him and continued on unimpeded.

Mutsu wasn't the target.

Grabbing his sword with both hands, Naruto lifted the blade above his head, and swiftly brought it down on the strings that were holding Akitsu in place. There was a loud screech, almost like that of metal on metal. For a moment Naruto wondered if the strings were made of some kind of metal, but discarded that notion. They were too flexible to be made out of metal that thick. Some kind of synthetic material then? MBI had the technology. Well, whatever, he could ponder over the Sekirei's weapons later. Maybe he could even take a sample home with him and study it.

Despite the strength of the strings, they snapped under Naruto's attack. Mitsuha, who had been holding onto the strings tightly and had even placed her body weight into keeping Akitsu bound, stumbled backwards with a surprised look on her face. Naruto wondered if it was because the steaming 'corpse' from earlier had suddenly risen up and broke her weapon, or simply because he had broken her weapon; perhaps a little of both. Looking up Mitsuha looked to the blond in confusion and shock, "What the hell!?" Mitsuha shouted in shock. "I thought he was dead!"

Her surprised shouting went largely ignored. Yomi and Akitsu were both in the same boat as she was, but they seemed to have lost their voices, though Naruto was sure if they had them they would have agreed with the Sekirei's assessment. The only one who wasn't affected to the point of not being able to move was Mutsu, who had launched himself at Naruto the moment he sliced through the strings that had bound Akitsu.

The soft 'hiss' of his blade sliding out of its sheath was accompanied by the whistling sound as it cut through the air. Naruto spun on a dime, the Kubikiribōcho coming up to block the attack. He channeled chakra into his arms, legs, and the bottom of his feet before his blade clashed with that of Mutsu's.

There was a loud 'clang!' as steel cashed against steel. Naruto let out a slight grunt of exertion as the combined strength and momentum hit him, but other than that he gave no indication of having felt the attack. Indeed, he remained planted firmly on the ground, neither stumbling nor sliding backwards as the smaller katana was bashed against his head cleaving blade.

And then it was his turn. Channeling a bit more chakra to his arms, Naruto shoved his sword against Mutsu's using both his own chakra enhanced strength, and the inertia that had been created when he blocked Mutsu's attack. The male Sekirei was sent stumbling backwards, his eyes widening in surprise. He hesitated. Naruto could have used that moment to attack, but there was no guarantee that Mutsu would fall with his next move. Would he be able to attack quickly enough to land a decisive blow? How fast was Mutsu's reaction time? Without knowing those answers, attacking someone of number zero five's caliber was foolish given the situation he was in.

Naruto couldn't afford to be drawn into a large scale battle when there were two other Sekirei waiting to pounce on the one he was trying to protect. Speaking off...

"Ashikabi-sama, you're alright!" Akitsu said happily.

"Not now, we have other things to worry about." said Naruto as he burst forward to cross blades with Mutsu as Mitsuha and Yomi attacked the ice Sekirei with their scythe and strings respectively. She managed to jump back, dodging the whip and several strings, but a few managed to catch her unawares and managed to make small nicks in her flesh. She hissed, but despite how tired she must be from everything that had happened, managed to pull enough strength from somewhere to raise her hand and point it at them. Slivers of ice grew out of nothing and shot forward with incredible speed and power.

As he went for a vertical strike at the fifth Sekirei, Mutsu jumped backwards, allowing Naruto's blade to crash into the ground. It was good thing for him that he did, for when the giant butcher knife struck the ground, large chunks of grass and dirt sprung out of the ground, and cracks spread along its surface as the Kubikiribōcho sunk into deep into the earth. It seemed this was the moment Mutsu was waiting for. The gray-haired sword user launched himself forward, and was on Naruto in less than a second. He came at the immortal with a horizontal swipe of his blade. In most circumstances, the battle probably would have ended there.

With how deeply the Kubikiribōcho had sunk into the ground, not even Naruto would be able to yank it out in time to block. Fortunately for Naruto and unfortunately for Mutsu, the shinobi in question was not a swordsman by nature. The lavender eyed shinobi let go of the large blade, and ducked. The sword swipe from Mutsu whistled over his head, cutting off several strands of hair that blew away from the force of the swing. Naruto planted both hands on the ground behind him, and kicked his feet into the air, before proceeding to smash them both against Mutsu's chest. The move was so quick that the Sekirei in question didn't have time to mount of proper defense, and with his body still moving with the swing he couldn't bring his sword back to block in time.

The double attack connected with the sound of thunder. Mutsu was launched backwards, into the air, flipping end over end. He wondered for a moment if he would be sent out of the city limits due to the strength used. It was a hope that was dashed when the member of the first disciplinary squad sunk his blade into the ground and used it to slow his momentum, and use the remaining force to swing his body around so that his feet planted themselves firmly on the ground. He knelt down, both hands on his blade, which remained impaled into the hard concrete of the roof. Then he stood up, looking only a little worse for wear as he rubbed the two spots Naruto had kicked.

"You, what are you?" asked Mutsu, his eyes narrowing slightly as he looked at the blond. "You're far too strong to be human, yet I can sense that you're not a Sekirei."

"Me, I'm just a regular everyday bad-ass." Naruto said with a projected air of indifference. Taking his right hand off Kubikiribōcho's hilt, he reached into his shuriken pouch and pulled several of the pointed ninja stars, which he let fly towards his opponent. Mutsu was quick to react. He made several blurring swipes with his katana, batting each shuriken away with ease. Naruto had expected that, and truthfully didn't care if his projectiles hit the Sekirei or not. It would have been nice, but not necessary.

In the time it took Mutsu to deflect the launched ninja stars, Naruto had already moved. Not towards the sword wielding Sekirei, but towards the nearest female Sekirei attacking Akitsu. Yomi. Moving so fast that it almost appeared as if he had simply phased into existence in front of her, the blond could see the scythe user's eyes widening as he swung his giant head cleaver at her. She tried to jump back and avoid the swing, but was too slow. The blade sliced into her flesh. Blood spurted out of the large gash that had opened up from her left hip to her right shoulder. Number forty-three's eyes widened in horror, her mouth opened to scream out in pain, but all that managed to come out was a gurgling sound. Her eyes rolled up into the back of her head and her body fell backwards, hitting the ground with a dull thud.

A profound silence rang throughout the clearing as the three remaining Sekirei stared wide eyed at the blond who had just defeated and possibly killed a member of their race. Mitsuha's face turned green as she stared at the blond like he was some kind of demon. With his face covered in his victim's blood, and his hair matted down with the same red substance as he stared down at the now terminated Sekirei without a hint of emotion in his eyes, it wasn't hard to see why. He really did look like some kind of demon.

Mutsu was the first of the group to recover. He looked over at Mitsuha, who looked like she might vomit at any moment. "Mitsuha!" he shouted, forcing her to look away from the gruesome scene before her, "This battle's lost, we're leaving." he commanded. The user of the strange string-like weapons didn't need to be told twice. Shuddering from head to toe at what could have been her fate had she been closest to the blond; she jumped up and over the wall followed by Mutsu, ignoring the fallen comrade they left behind.

Naruto watched them go. He could have gone after them, but really, all he wanted to do now was get home. Then he looked out of the corner of his eyes and saw Akitsu staring at him with a strange expression, a mixture of abject horror and arousal that would have looked out of place on anyone. He turned to face her, noticing how she flinched. Sighing, he wiped the blood off his face with the sleeves of shirt, discreetly using what concentration he could to gather the moisture in the air to help wash his face off. When he was sufficiently clean, he looked back up at his new Sekirei, "Are you alright?" he asked into the silence.

Akitsu seemed to shake herself out of whatever funk she was in, and gingerly stood up, wincing a bit as the aches and pains of the day, as well as the way her body was reacting to Naruto, descended upon her, "I'm fine Ashikabi-sama." she told him.

"Then let's get you home." he said walking her out of the park and climbing into the taxi.

Hikari and Hibiki walked down the street, bags in hand, wearing brand new clothing, each with designer sunglasses, "So where do you think he ran off to in such a hurry?" The conversation had been veering in this general direction for the last hour, since their Ashikabi had vanished.

"Who knows. We should have probably made it a point to ask the jerk what he does for a living..." Hikari grumbled.

"Didn't the CEO say something when he contacted Naruto? I thought he said he was an author or something..." Hibiki replied.

Hikari snapped to attention, "Hey, you're right!" she said, "He said he was the author to some series called...Icha-Icha I think. Ever heard of it?" Her sister shook her head.

"No, I haven't...but didn't Minaka say something else...I think he mentioned something else Naruto does on the side..." Hibiki stated in thought, but couldn't recall what it had been said as, "I know Minaka said something, but I can't really recall..." she muttered. Both woman adopted thoughtful looks, trying to remember what it was that the game-master had said, but both drew a blank.

"Anyway, why don't we go check out what this 'Icha-Icha' series is. Maybe we can find out where Naruto got all this money." As they made their way down the side-walk, each managed to glance at one of the cars driving by, and both pairs of eyes narrowed. Mutsu was inside, and the person who was obviously his Ashikabi.

"Well, well, look what we have here, Sis." Hikari announced.

"If those two are out and about, it means they have their eyes on someone. Which means we get to follow through with Naruto's orders," Hibiki replied. Lightning arced from their feet as they leapt to the rooftops, "I know we've emerged, but do you think we'll be able to take these guys?"

"We don't have to take them, just stall them," her sister replied, receiving a nod in confirmation. Keeping tabs on the car as they nimbly leapt from rooftop to rooftop, they didn't quite realize that they were being tailed by Homura, the Guardian Sekirei keeping both his pace and his distance. He had been keeping tabs on this Ashikabi as well and it was again time to do his duty. Perhaps these girls could help.

Fifteen minutes later, Naruto entered the house which he stopped to admire the new furniture that had been brought in and set up. He was surprised, it had only been a couple hours since he left, but sheesh the twins worked fast. Akitsu had fallen asleep on the drive over and so he had no choice but to carry her inside like a new bride, but he wasn't going to complain. Most of the furniture was the expensive kind that lasted for years and would remain comfortable regardless if you jumped on it like a trampoline or not. Laying her on the couch, he watched as Akitsu began to stir from the loss of heat provided by Naruto before she awoke.

Her eyes landed on the blond, making her relax as she saw his ocean blue eyes looking at her in concern. "So... it wasn't a dream..."

"Did you want it to be?" asked Naruto, giving her a wink. When she shook her head 'no' he grinned. "Don't worry, this is no dream. From now on, you'll be with us, a new addition to our..." he paused, wondering about what the appropriate term for them was. After a second he decided to go with, "Family."

Akitsu looked at him in confusion. "You have a family?"

"Something like that." Naruto said, the impulsive nature of his youth coming out to play after several thousands years of inaction. He cleared his throat, "Akitsu, I haven't been entirely honest with you and would like for you to know that I am in fact a Ashikabi, to twin Sekirei at that. I already told them that if any other Sekirei reacted to me I would bring them into the fold as my own Sekirei. So before I decide to see if I can help you before resorting to running to MBI, I just want you to know you can always back out." he told her.

"So... you'll take care of me?" she asked

"That's right."

"You won't... abandon me?"

In response to her question Naruto leaned down until their noses were touching. Looking into her eyes he said, "I promise to never abandon you. No matter what happens I will always look after you, and cherish you as someone as beautiful as you deserves to be cherished. I swear this on my life as a shinobi."

'Shinobi?' wondered Akitsu before her mind was swept away when Naruto kissed her. The woman's mind blanked completely, she had never expected to have someone want her like this, she was broken after all. Yet this man was kissing her, she could almost feel the emotions he was pouring into the act. Slowly, almost tentatively, she began to kiss back. Her arms came up and wrapped around the blond's neck and she could feel her entire body becoming almost unbearably hot.

Much like the last time Naruto kissed a Sekirei, he could feel his chakra being drained. However, where the twins seemed to continue sucking his chakra out until they gained their wings, with Akitsu it felt almost like something was blocking her from gaining the necessary chakra to do the same. Concentrating on his chakra, Naruto followed it's path as it flowed through the woman's body, tracing it. He had not been able to do this when he had winged the twins, being as startled as he was. But this time, the blond made sure to follow the path it took to it's conclusion.

When he did, a frown marred his face. While Naruto could not be certain due to how shocked he was by the situation last time, he would have bet his entire fortune on his chakra going to the twins' back. That was, after all, where the Sekirei crest was located. With Akitsu he could still feel his chakra flowing through her, but instead of stopping at her back where her crest would be and gathering there until she had enough to gain her wings, it stopped at her forehead and pushed against... something.

A need for air soon became relevant and Naruto pulled back with a gasp, greedily sucking in the much needed oxygen. He looked down at Akitsu and saw tears beginning to gather in her eyes, "Hey now..." he whispered, using his left hand to gently wipe the tears away. "What's with the tears?"

"Ah," Akitsu started, her despondent eyes dropping away from Naruto's questioning ones. "I was really hoping that I could truly be your Sekirei."

Naruto frowned. Placing the hand that was wiping tears under her chin, he pulled her face back towards his. "Let's not give up yet," he said, causing her eyes to turn to him, "I still have one more thing I want to try." And with that he pressed his lips back down against hers. This time, he did not just follow the flow of it as it traveled through the woman's pathways. He prepared, and waited, and when he felt his chakra hit that strange block that had been keeping his chakra from going any further, Naruto began actively channeling his chakra through her via the kiss. He sent a surge of his potent and powerful chakra into her, pushing it against the block. For a moment, nothing happened, and then, without warning, Naruto felt something give before the block broke and his chakra surged through Akitsu like his namesake.

There was an explosion of light where Akitsu's mark was, followed by an even more brilliant light from behind her. A large pair of angel wings burst from her back, great ethereal wings the same shade as ice. They conformed to the room as if they were a physical object, following the path of the floor as they moved around her back and curved upwards to wrap around the two of them in a protective embrace. The room began to fog over, frost formed on the window and a layer of ice began creeping along the floor, walls, and ceiling. Naruto and Akitsu came back up for air, their released breaths coming out as large puffs of fog.

Naruto looked at Akitsu's flushed face, his gaze traveling from her moist, pink lips to her forehead,"Hey, your mark is gone," Naruto commented with a grin. "Looks like my theory was right."

Akitsu's eyes widened and her hand went to her forehead. "It's gone?" she whispered.

"Yep, and you've got your wings." he told her her and winked, "I guess your not so broken after all, eh?"

It was impossible for Akitsu to keep the tears from her eyes as she looked at Naruto. "Thank you, thank you, thank you..." she said in a repeating mantra over and over again.

Naruto smiled, kissed her on the forehead and said, "You're very welcome, now get some rest, tomorrow you'll begin a new life with the twins and I."

"Yes, my Ashikabi-Sama," Akitsu said, closing her eyes as she let sleep take her. A small smile making it's way onto her face. Her last thoughts before sleep claimed her were on her Ashikabi and her hope that they would share a bright future together.

Within M.B.I. headquarters alarms were going off and several workers were running around like headless chickens. The alarms were blaring and panic had set in. Everyone was trying to figure out what was going on, and of course, all of their actions were counteracting the actions of each other, making it impossible for them to get any of the answers they sought.

Fortunately for them, the cavalry had arrived.

Unfortunately for them, she was a hard ass that they all feared even more the Hiroto Minaka.

Takami walked into the room with a scowl in her eyes, "Everybody calm down before I shove my foot so far up your asses that you won't be sitting for months!" she shouted as several workers typed away frantically on their computers in an attempt to gather as much data as possible about the current event that was causing the sirens to go off. She walked over to one of the work stations and looked at the data flowing, ignoring the way the man stiffened from her mere presence alone. "What have you found out?"

"It's Akitsu ma'am!" One of the workers shouted. "S-she's just been winged!"

"Impossible!" the woman said as she walked over to the computer and watched the feedback. Her eyes widened to the size of dinner plates. "This shouldn't be possible. I want all information you have on Akitsu and the Ashikabi who winged her, and I want it yesterday! Get to work!"

"Ma'am!" the scientist responded and returning to what they were doing.

Up on the top of the M.B.I headquarters, Hiroto Minaka watched the proceedings inside of the lab on his portable monitor with a grin, "Uzumaki Naruto, such an interesting and mysterious character you are. I wonder what other surprises you'll bring to the table." he told himself.

-Earlier that same day-

Mikogami was rubbing his hands together eagerly. The veiled Sekirei, a incredible prize for him to gain now that she had been subdued, "And you're all mine." he said eagerly.

"Back off ya little creep!" Uzume yelled out at him.

"Now why would I do that?" he asked her with a snort, "You're about to become a part of my collection." he said eagerly.

"I'm not some action figure you can collect from a store. I'm a living breathing person, the only difference between me and you is that I have abilities that make me different from you. Other than that I'm basically human!" Uzume shouted.

Suddenly the two Sekirei holding her down were blasted away by bolts of purple lightning, "We're aren't late to this shindig are we?" a feminine voice asked as Mikogami swung himself around and felt his eyes sparkle in excitement, the twin lightning Sekirei, this day just keeps better and better.

"More pieces for my collection!" he shouted eagerly.

Hibiki snorted, "Oh get over yourself." she said crossing her arms, "Besides, we're already taken." she told him.

"Yea, and our Ashikabi is way better looking than you that's for sure." Hikari agreed with her sister.

"Mitsuki, Juusa, destroy them!" he cried out in anger, "If I can't have them for my collection than their master won't either!"

Hibiki and Hikari looked at each other and then clasped their hands together, "We're the pledged thunderclap. No disaster will hit our Ashikabi." they chanted as a powerful bolt of lightning shot off and struck the two Sekirei in question which caused the two to cry out in pain from the lightning where they both collapsed while the lightning exploded behind them both and threatened to throw the others off their feet. Surprisingly they didn't feel as drained as they normally did when using their Norito. Was it because of Naruto's training? If so then this was amazing.

Not exactly girls.

"No, my Sekirei, what did you do to them?" Mikogami cried out as he got up and ran over to them.

"The same thing we're about to do to you you little twerp!" Hikari growled as she walked over and threw a bolt of lightning where she sent a large shock through the boys system, "Now get this through that empty skull of yours." she said as the boy cried out, "We Sekirei aren't toys, and we never will be. So grow up and treat the ones you have with respect, or the next time we meet this will be twice as worse as this!" she shouted as she surged a new bolt of lightning through the teen who passed out from the pain.

Hibiki sighed as she rubbed the bridge of her nose, "I'm so sorry about Hikari, she's usually much better than this, but I guess seeing this happen to you set her off." she said helping the veiled Sekirei up to her feet.

"No problem. I'm Uzume by the way." Uzume said to the calm twin.

"I'm Hibiki, and this is of course my twin sister Hikari." she introduced herself.

"Yea, you're the lightning twins if I'm not mistaken. Congratulations on finding a Ashikabi. I just started to react to one a few couple days ago. I've been looking through the city but haven't been able to find him anywhere." she told her.

"Well I wish you the best of luck in finding him. We need to get back to our own home before our Ashikabi does." Hikari said politely to Uzume.

"Yea, I gotta get going to. My landlady must be worried sick about me." Uzume said before she jumped away.

"Well let's get going too sis, might as well see if Naruto's come back yet." Hibiki said.

"Yea, let's get out of here." Hikari sighed.

Chapter 4 is ready


Hibiki and Hikari couldn't believe their ears, "You winged a single digit?!" they cried out.

"Yes, but originally I was called to take her back to MBI by Minaka. When I saw how she was acting I knew I couldn't leave her there. Not only that, Mikogami sent a group after her to try and claim her." Naruto explained.

"Well when you put it like that, we can't really complain." Hibiki said.

"It's fine, let's just call it a day." he said sleepily. His pale eyes shut as he gave a yawn, "Go to bed, we'll begin your training tomorrow." he told them.

"More training, but Naruto we're pretty good as we are now." Hibiki said.

"It doesn't matter. It's best to keep your skills sharp while you can." he said walking away.

"Ah, Ashikabi-sama, should I wash your back in the bath?" Akitsu asked.

"Not now Akitsu, I just wanna get some sleep." he said wearily.

"Yes, Ashikabi-sama." Akitsu said a bit upset.

"You're not in trouble, I'm just mentally exhausted and need to rest. We'll talk some more in the morning." he said quietly as he began to walk up the stairs to his room.

"Ah, can I sleep with you?" Akitsu asked.

"I wouldn't bother, he didn't even do it with us." Hibiki said.

"No, that's not what happened. I meditated all night and managed to sleep as I did. It's a ancient technique which lets me rest while my body remained calm and let me clear my mind." he explained to them, "It's the only reason you didn't wake up in the bed with me." he told the twins.

"So we can sleep with you?" Hibiki asked.

"No. While the three of us are connected on a level most others wouldn't understand, I myself am not yet ready to commit to such emotions. In due time will something happen in the future." he told her.

"Well regardless, we're climbing in bed with you." Hikari told him.

"Yea, all Sekirei like to cuddle their Ashikabi unless they're those jerk-wads that don't like the comfort of another person lying with them." Hibiki said.

"I don't care where you sleep at, just let me be able to actually rest." he told them as he reached a door, "Restrooms on the right, make sure you shower before climbing in bed with me, I'm gonna crash here." he told them as he took off his shirt revealing his back to them. Naruto has a lean but muscled build meant to provide both speed and power and is built from years of fighting with toned muscles he had developed over time. He had well-chiseled pecs, a very defined six-pack, and back and leg muscles. However, what caused the girls to be concerned were the scars that littered his body.

They were all over his body.

He had scars all over his body of different shapes, sizes, and fades, showing some were still fresh and others weren't. Most looked to be the result of knives, swords, and other blade-like objects. He even had scars all over his arms that looked to have made by hundreds of little razors. However, there was one that stood out to them the most. It was a large, fist-shaped scar that rested over his heart and was heavily faded, showing that it was old. But when Naruto turned around to crawl into bed, he revealed that the scar actually went all the way through his body and came out his back.

The discolored skin of a jagged scar resting below his shoulder blade over his heart caused Akitsu to turn away and the twins to literally freeze in shock as they looked at his body covered in battle scars, unable to turn away from the jarring site. He saw their gazes were either averted or frozen on his body. Shrugging his shoulders he removed his pants and stood in his underwear and simply fell back onto the bed behind him. The blondes Sekirei were in shock. How had he gotten that many scars? How had he survived? How was he able to remain so sane when he should probably live in a loony bin?

These were the questions that ran through the three girls mind as they tried to rid the image of their Ashikabi's scarred body from their minds. It wouldn't be easy, but they eventually shook themselves out of their stupor. Hibiki walked over and sat on the bed next to him. Naruto only raised a brow when he felt her places her hand on his body, "What are you doing?" he asked her.

She didn't answer as she rubbed the scar that sat directly on his heart.

Naruto felt her tenderly rub her hand across his scarred flesh before Hibiki softly whispered, "How did you get this scar?" she asked him.

Naruto shrugged his shoulder, "A mistake in my youth." he told her, "Wasn't one of my best moments, but it's definitely a reminder of how bad I was about doing stupid stuff back in the day."

"And this one?" she asked him as she ran her hand over the one by his shoulder.

"Same guy, same day." he told her.

"So someone did this to you?" Hibiki asked him in a soft tone.

"Like I said, it was a mistake from my past. A lot of these scars came from that same guy, but some of them were from mistakes I made in other positions. Haven't made as many mistakes these past couple years as I did back then." he told her, "Now that's enough about me, go shower." he told her.

"Ok, I'll see you when I get out." she told him.

Naruto didn't respond, he didn't really care.

He was already asleep.

The next morning Naruto groggily woke up a killer headache. He tried to bring his hands up to rub his eyes with a hand, but found them pinned to his sides. Looking to the obstructions, he immediately understood why he couldn't move. He looked down to see that the twins were now latched to his arms on either side and Akitsu was lying on his chest. That must have been why he was having a hard time breathing. At least they were clothed. Oh don't get the wrong idea, he didn't mind waking up in bed with a naked woman, but he at least wanted to be naked too, morning sex was enjoyable to many, and if they had been naked then he could have at least woke with a enjoyable night filled with passionate memories.

And don't get the wrong idea, he was a dick yes, but he loved sex. As much as he hated Jiraiya's attempted corruptions to perversion, he would admit that the old pervert had a point when it came to the female companionship. And after he had visited a brothel that first time he couldn't really get enough. Then Shizuka came, followed by Shion, Mei, Kurotsuchi, Anko, Samui, Mabui and easily a dozen or so other women. Shame that he had to hide the fact he got that one chick pregnant, Sara... or was it all of them. He had heard a rumor from several villages that the population of blondes had went up randomly after a few months.

Regardless, his past sexual accomplishments aside, he had things he had to do. Across the room a puff exploded into existence where a cloud of smoke appeared and quickly faded away to reveal another version of himself. Calling upon his power, he felt his body switch places with his doppelganger where he stumbled a bit as he shook his leg to get the feeling back. He had things he had to do so he would allow the three Sekirei to sleep. Quickly getting into the shower and washing himself off he got dressed in a grey wife-beater, a pair of blue jeans, socks and shoes. He then opened a drawer to the dresser and pulled out a white t-shirt and put it on and walked out the door.

He walked to the forge and turned on the lights, seeing as it was still early in the morning, and set to work. Changing the propane tank out he quickly lit the furnace and allowed the heat to fill the cool morning air around him. The difference of what he was doing here and what he did the other day, was that he was only building one weapon and not four, but the time in which it would take was not even a quarter of the time. He then walks over to a set pile of metal and grabs a solid one inch thick piece of square 1080 steel and then walks over to the lathe he had set up. He then proceeds to drill a hole into the metal.

The reason he was doing it like this was because that the tang of the weapon wouldn't be that long, only a single hand in length, and if he had preheated the metal then drilled the hole then the threads would have been warped and he would have no choice but to restart the whole process. With his hole drilled through the entire solid stock metal, he then puts it in the hot forge and allows it to heat up to proper temp, pulls it out and proceeds to draw it out with beveling under the power hammer. This would be a tricky build as he had to start from a square cross-section and taper it out to form a diamond.

When he did what he could on the machinery, he moved down to the anvil and worked in what he needed by hand. When he had finished drawing it out into a flat bar he set it down and walked over to the plasma torch and turned it on before he grabbed a sheet of metal and proceeded to cut out four pieces of metal that would be structural to his design for the weapon. Cleaning them up to where he liked, he then proceeded to quickly engrave a elegant design into the metal for lather purposes and then returned to the forge to flatten the blade a bit more, measure it out to length, and then laid in some more bevel just to be safe.

With the blade now forged, he was able to begin his grinding and he decided to start off on the 180-grit to polish off the harder scale that remained and bring out the shine of the blade. With the finished blade shined and readied, he proceeded to go through and drill in the threads to ensure his material didn't break. If he had done this after heat treating it would have destroyed itself in the process as the metal would have been to hard. Taking a threading bolt, he pours some hydraulic oil on it and then pours several drops down the hold at the end of his blade and then slowly drills in the thread bolt to get his threads in nice and smoothly.

So far, only forty-five minutes had passed.

Now it was time for heat treating. He starts off by heating up the thicker end first before flipping it around to do the bladed portion, and then quenches into oil. With that done, Naruto takes it over to the belts and proceeds to polish it and true up his edges and define the point on the weapon. Grabbing some leftover wood he used to make the handles for the twins' weapons he took it to the lathe and proceeded to use a strip of sand paper on it and quickly smoothed it down and then took a pen and drew a pattern along the handle before he proceeded to grind and sand away his markings while it spun on the machine.

While he was working on that, he had a clone working on hand engraving a elegant pattern into his already pre-made engravings so that he could assemble it when he finished with the tang and blade. His clone was using a diamond tipped chisel and a small hammer to delicately make the marks necessary to pull out the beautiful pattern he had originally carved into the metal. Working through several variant belts Naruto was quick to bring out the pattern of the blade and shine behind the metal and was quite pleased with the way it shaped itself out to be. He had messed up many swords in his life when he started out, but after becoming a master blacksmith without equal, he hadn't messed up in many years.

With all his forging done, Naruto walks over to where his clone was and was happy that the welding he needed was already finished as the clone pulled off his goggles and dunked the guard for the blade into some burning ice. Yes, that's right, burning ice. It was a special technique he learned long ago, and it was almost as effective as heat treating one would normally do in a modern forge. Pulling the metal out, the clone tossed his piece to Naruto and the blonde walked back to where he was working to begin assembling the final product of his craft.

Taking the handle of wood he slid the guard over it and quickly set a hot rivet of titanium into the wood permanently binding the two pieces together. Taking the blade he quickly screws it onto the handle and welds it together and walks over to a grinding belt and took away the weld markings and then took it to the scotch bright wheel and polished up his latest piece of work. All in all the build itself took less that three hours, but he was truly pleased with how much easier it was to design this weapon for Akitsu.

It was roughly nine in the morning when the three Sekirei walked out to the forge just as Naruto came out with a box in his hands, "Oh, your three are here just in time." he said to them.

"In time?" Hibiki asked in confusion.

"Time for what?" Hikari asked her Ashikabi.

"Ah, the box." Akitsu pointed out.

"Exactly." Naruto said with a smirk on his face, "This is for you." he said handing it to her.

"Ah... what is it?" Akitsu asked him.

"Open it. You'll like it." he told her.

"It's another weapon isn't it?" Hikari asked.

"Yes, not going to lie, but this one is suited just for Akitsu just like those knives I made for you girls." he told them, "But again training in using it will wait until I know she and in extension you two, are suited for something other than your weapons." he said as Akitsu pulled out a very elegant Rapier.

"Ah... thank you Ashikabi-sama." Akitsu said as she looked up with a questioning gaze, "But if I may ask, why am I being given a sword?" she asked him.

"It's simple." Naruto told her as he leaned against the doorway to the building he had just left, "Like with the twins, you may find yourself out of energy when in a fight, and to ensure that you don't get deactivated or worse, I'm going to teach you how to fight using a weapon best suited for your ability. I gave the twins a set of singular sided blades that flow with the natural movement of the body, yours is meant to move with a elegance and grace as I have seen you in the fight back at the park. If I find anymore Sekirei and wing them, I'll make weapons based on their own fighting styles." he told her calmly, "However, also like the twins we will be training to see what all you need to work on. You may be a single digit, but your power isn't absolute." he told her.

"Ah... I understand, Ashikabi-sama." Akitsu said.

"Naruto. Call me Naruto, I don't do honorifics." Naruto told her as he got off the wall, "Well begin your lessons when we get back. Right now we have to go to the city and get some things to help train you. And right now, that is only possible if we get them today." he told her, "Don't worry you'll be able to get through your lessons as well." he told the twins as he walked past them.

-In the city-

Walking through the city, the girls had proven that they could easily pull heavy things, as seen by the large crates on wheels. Naruto himself was also pushing his own weight, ignoring the shocked looks the people were giving them as they passed by. As they were about to load the things they needed into the back of the large transportation truck, they heard a voice call out from behind, "Hey, you!" a loud, rough voice shouted.

"Oh crap…" Hikari muttered, recognizing the loud voice.

Naruto groaned before he turned to see a black-haired man in his mid-twenties, wearing a rough black jacket and a pair of jeans stalking towards him, "Who are you?" Naruto growled out in annoyance.

"The name is Seo and you Winged my Sekirei!" the now named Seo growled.

"What the hell are you talking about?" was all Naruto could say as the man glared at him.

"Don't pull that bullshit me!" Seo growled at him angrily, "You Winged my Sekirei!" he said again.

"Uh…girls?" Naruto asked, "Any of you know this guy?" he asked them.

"Ah... Never seen him." Akitsu replied uncaring of the man walking up to them.

"He was the person we reacted to initially. Although in this case it was a mild reaction when compared to the one we had with you." Hikari admitted with a uncaring shrug.

"And you didn't mention this because..." Naruto questioned them.

"As we said, our reaction was very mild." Hibiki added quietly.

Seo gaped at the twins in disbelief, "B-but you reacted to me, not him!" he growled out as he pointed to the blonde in question.

"Seo, Sekirei can react to multiple people it's not just a singular reaction." Hibiki sighed out to him, "It just so happens that Naruto-sama is a better Ashikabi for us on the compatibility scale." she explained to him, though he didn't like it regardless.

"A kid like this is more compatible than me?!" Seo exclaimed unhappily at this, not to mention a little disbelieving.

"I'll have you know I'm in my mid twenties." Naruto told Seo though they ignored him.

"Yea, that's just the way it is Seo." Hikari shrugged before she and her sister draped themselves on either side of their Ashikabi and snuggled in to him, making him sigh at the close contact, "Of course the compatibility issue is just one reason we chose him. Another reason is that knowing your lazy ass, we would have been ridiculed by everyone just by being with you." she told him.

"So just because I like to indulge in alcohol makes me a bad Ashikabi?!" Seo snarled, fists clenched and shaking in fury.

"It doesn't matter Seo, we've been Winged, so there isn't anything you can do about it." Hibiki said as she cuddled her Ashikabi.

"Tch." Seo glowered at Naruto for a moment before stomping off, "I'll just have to Wing another Sekirei then. If I come across ya kid, all bets are off."

The next thing Naruto knew, the hairs on the back of his neck stood up and a pair of lightning bolts shot from the outstretched hands of the pair of enraged Sekirei attached to him, reaching out to strike Seo in the center of the back, electrocuting him to the point Naruto could swear that he could see the mans skeleton as the electricity danced across his body.

To be honest, it was quite comical. Like the loony toons.

"Don't. You. Ever! Threaten our Ashikabi." the twins spoke in unison as Seo collapsed to the ground, burnt and twitching spasmodically.

"Not bad. A bit underwhelming, but not bad." Naruto complimented them nodding his head.

"Ignore him Naruto, we have things to do remember?" Hibiki said as she went back to loading the crates by hand.

"Ah... we have business at home." Akitsu said.

"Meh, whatever, let's get this done." Naruto agreed and went back to work.

Completely ignoring the moaning man on the ground twitching from electricity coursing through his veins.

-Later-

As the truck pulled into the driveway yet again, Naruto was curious as to why someone was standing there as if waiting for them to come back. She was a lovely woman there was no doubt, but the way she stood definitely was suspicious to Naruto. Having lived as long as he had he could instantly tell her stance was also meant to throw others off guard. But it was how she held herself that made him understand that this was no ordinary woman. He stance, was that of a warriors. Climbing out, Naruto walked over and waved in greeting, though he was very adamant on meeting someone like this in the middle of his driveway, "Can I help you?" he asked her.

The woman in question is a slender yet shapely fair-skinned woman waist-length purple hair with shorter bangs that is in a hime cut and brown eyes. She wears the traditional attire of a miko that is a purple hakama, a white haori with a sash-like belt, wooden sandals and a white ribbon to partially hold her hair in place. While she was attractive and seemed to be fairly young, there was a gleam to her eyes that showed that she would fight with incredible power if need be, and from what he was sensing she had plenty of it. In fact, she had as much power in her as the only person that gave him a hard time in battle.

Madara... Uchiha...

That man, was out of his league by many times, and the fight only lasted for thirty minutes before someone worse arrived and gave him a even harder time. The fact that this woman had as much power as his biggest enemy in this day and age, made him wary. No, downright paranoid of her existence. His first instinct upon coming this close to contact her was to literally wipe her out of existence entirely, and for something like that to happen, it was a pretty big deal. However, he could also tell she wasn't here to cause any trouble if the fact she was smiling pleasantly at him didn't show her true intent. She wanted to met him face to face.

"Well yes you can actually. I'm looking for the owner of the three lots here that just purchased them the other day. I haven't had the chance to introduce myself to the new owner and wanted to do so for a few days now." she said pleasantly.

Naruto hummed to himself. Should he really reveal himself as the new owner? Well, it would come out eventually sure, but right now he had things to do, and lying wasn't one of them, "I'm the owner." he told her.

The woman seemed to be taken aback by his statement, "Oh, oh my. I'm sorry for assuming that you were just a man working. I didn't mean to sound so rude." she apologized to him.

"It's whatever." he said shrugging, "So, what can I do for you?" he asked her.

"Well, I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Miya Asama, and I live right across the road from you." she told him.

Naruto nodded his head to her, "Names Naruto Uzumaki. I am pleased to make your acquaintance." he told her.

Miya smiled at him and nodded her head, "Well I originally came over to see if you would be willing to come over for dinner so as to get to know one another, not romantically mind you as I am not looking for a relationship, but as friends." she offered.

Naruto shrugged. He didn't really care if she wanted to offer food for a night or not, free food was free food. He nodded his head to her, "I guess it wouldn't hurt. You wouldn't mind if I brought some guests of my own would you?" he asked. If he was being fed he didn't want to leave his Sekirei out of the mix. That would have just been rude even for him. He was a heartless son-of-a-bitch, but he wasn't cruel to others.

Miya nodded her head, "Of course I don't mind. I'll be glad to have your friends over." she told him with a giggle, "I live right there, so you can come over at around eight o'clock for the meal." she told him as she began to walk away only to turn back to face him, "Oh, and by the way, how many are you bringing to the table?" she asked him.

"Three plus myself." Naruto responded.

Miya nodded her head, "That's fine, if it had been dozens then there would have been a problem." she said before she walked away with a giggle to herself.

Naruto shook his head at the woman, "Strange, even for someone as powerful as her." he said as he walked back to the passenger door and opened it, "Come let's unload this stuff and get it inside. We won't be training today seeing as we have plans this evening." he told them.

"Whatever." Hikari shrugged.

"Sounds good to me." Hibiki said calmly.

"Ah... where are we going?" Akitsu asked.

"Next door for dinner. Apparently the landlady wants to get to know us better." Naruto told Akitsu as he adjusted his goggles on his nose.

"Why next door, can't we just eat over here?" Hibiki asked him.

"No, then we would be seen as rude when we have already promised to go meet the neighbor." he responded, "Best to keep your word and let life move on for you without letting it bother you." he told her as he walked to the back of the truck to begin unloading the things he needed.

XxX

Miya walked into the house her husband owned and into the kitchen with a small smile. The new neighbor, while a bit crude in his mannerisms, was actually quite pleasant to speak with. She heard the sound of footsteps and turned just in time to see a certain busty Sekirei walking down the stairs and felt herself frown when she saw her outfit... which with that being said, was nothing at all, "Uzume... I thought I explained several times that walking around Mason Izumo in the nude is strictly forbidden?" she asked as a purple haze appeared around her. And from the purple haze a demonic masked began to form behind her and glare at Uzume.

Uzume stiffened, "I-I'll go get dressed right now." she said before she ran up the stairs.

Miya huffed to herself, "That girl, what am I going to do with her?" she asked herself.

"Hey Miya." a feminine voice greeted her from the right where the purple haired beauty smiled at another of her residents.

"Homura, you're looking well today." she greeted, "Anything interesting happen lately?" she asked. It had been a couple days since she had talked to her tenant.

Homura shrugged, "Nothing much if you want my honest opinion. Though there was a instance where I found myself interested in." she told Miya.

Miya gave the young woman a curious gaze, "Like what Homura?" she asked her.

"Well, the twins as well as the formerly scrapped #7 have all been winged by the same person in a time frame of less than two days apart. Not only that, but from what Matsu says there is no information on the guy. And I just saw them fry Mikogami the spoiled Ashikabi and two of his Sekirei yesterday, when Akitsu was supposed to have been winged. They used their Norito, but they somehow didn't kill or deactivate the two Sekirei nor their Ashikabi. Those are certain kill abilities, but they didn't." Homura said scratching her head in confusion. It was really weird for her, and she was still pondering how they hadn't fried the three of them.

"Why would they attack a Ashikabi, that is against the rules set into place by MBI isn't it?" Miya asked her.

"They didn't do any big harm to Mikogami, it was mainly #11 Hikari who only used her lightning to shock Mikogami to the point of knocking him out like a taser for the police would do a suspect on the run. Not only that, but I think if you met them you'd be grateful. They actually saved Uzume from being forcefully being winged against her will." Homura told her.

Miya had to admit, that was a nice thing for them to do, but attacking a Ashikabi was something that would bring the blade of the Discipline Squad down their necks as well as their Ashikabi's own. However, if she knew Hiroto Minaka then she knew for a fact he wasn't going to do anything. If anything he would only find it interesting and amusing for his so called 'game' where he used her people as pawns for his sick amusement. Miya shook her head to rid it of the thoughts on the evil bastard and looked to Homura, "Well, anyways Homura, we're having guests coming over for dinner tonight so please inform Matsu of this so she stays in her room would you?" she asked as she headed for the kitchen.

Homura shrugged, "Ok, I'll make sure not to go anywhere tonight. I guess." she said.

-That night-

Naruto and his Sekirei were dressed comfortably for dinner at the new neighbors, the twins had a navy blue and maroon red dress on respectively, Akitsu had on a clean outfit while Naruto wore a crisp white shirt and pair of blue jeans. Casual yes, but presentable nevertheless. Having explained why they were going next door, Naruto told them to quickly get ready to go and watched them each emerge from the room and admitted, he almost gained a very noticeable hard-on. Oh sure he wouldn't think of trying to sleep with them after only a couple days, and he had certainly had his fair share of one nighter's, but something told him it would be in his best interest if he were to wait for the proper time.

"You girls look good." he said as he adjusted his goggles on his nose, "You ready to eat?" he asked them.

"I'm not sure about them but I'm starving." Hikari said as her stomach rumbled loudly.

"Ah...I'm hungry." Akitsu whispered out with slightly red cheeks.

"I'm ready." Hibiki said.

"Let's go get some chow then." smirked the blonde.

And with that, the quartet walked across the road to find a meal.

XxX

Knocking on the door, Naruto was surprised to see that it wasn't Miya that answered the door, but Uzume (You know, the Sekirei/girl from his literal dreams) that slid the door open. She seemed as surprised as Naruto felt, "O-Oh hello, how are you guys?" she asked nervously as she felt her cheeks heat up from being so close to her Ashikabi.

"Uzume!" the twins said with wide eyes and excitement in their voices.

Naruto ignored the lightning twins and gave the busty Sekirei a broad smile, "Well we are hungry. Miya said you were supposed to be expecting us, yes?" he asked her.

Uzume gulped, "U-Uh yea, she was, please come in." she said stepping out the way, and they all entered the nice abode.

"Well I must say, you have a nice home Uzume." Naruto said as he walked past her and into the living room, " I don't suppose you have been waiting around for me have you?" he asked as he turned to face her.

The twins looked at Uzume and felt their eyes widen while Akitsu felt her own narrow, "Y-You're reacting to Naruto, aren't you?" Hibiki asked #10.

Uzume laughed nervously, "Y-Yea I am. It's not that I don't wanna emerge now, but can we save it for after we eat please. I don't wanna invoke the landlady's ire.I'm sure you can understand." she stated with a gulp.

The twins shrugged, "Yea we don't mind, in fact it's awesome you're reacting to someone so awesome like Naruto-sama." Hikari said happily, though that was usually her sisters stick.

"I'm cool with that if Naruto is." Hibiki said smiling softly.

"Ah.. Ashikabi-sama just gave me wings." Akitsu grumbled.

Naruto wrapped a arm around her shoulder's, "Calm yourself. She too needs to find her other half. It's unbecoming of one such as you to fret over these things." Naruto told her.

Somewhere in the city, a busty blonde sneezed and vowed to kill the one speaking ill of her.

A gentle laugh drew Naruto's attention as well as the Sekirei he had winged, "I see you are of the feminine wile type Naruto-san. Who might these lovely young ladies be?" Miya asked as she entered. Oh she knew exactly who they were, but she had an appearance to keep after all.

Naruto smirked. Her emotions were a dead give away. She knew who his girls were, but she felt like she had to toy with them. He'd play her game... for now. He then motioned to the twins, "Well the twins here are Hibiki and Hikari. Hikari is the more busty of the twins, and this one I have embraced is Akitsu. Greet the nice lady girls." he told them.

"Hello." the three Sekirei spoke as one.

Miya felt her eyebrow almost tick in annoyance, but she knew he was also pointing out which girl was which. The twins were similarly busty, but the difference was noticeable when it came to the twins appearances when you looked for them. Hibiki felt her arms cover her chest in embarrassment, "N-Naruto-sama, why are you pointing something like that out to her?" she asked with red cheeks.

"Difference's in appearance for twins are hard to distinguish unless you know what you're looking for. Remember that in case you ever find yourself in such a situation." Naruto pointed out to her while not taking his eyes off of Miya, "I assume you are still working on dinner?" he asked Miya.

"It's just about ready you may make yourself at home in the living room while you wait." she told him and turned around, only to stop in her place and then turn back around to face Naruto, "You wouldn't mind if I asked for some help from your three lady friends would you?" she asked him.

Naruto nodded his head, "They would be glad to help you." he said nudging them towards Miya, "Be nice and courteous to the one giving us a home cooked meal tonight girls." he told them softly as they followed Miya into the kitchen. Sounds of dishes being set were soon heard by the blond. Seems they were trying to set the table.

Uzume looks to Naruto and watches as he sits on the couch, "So, Uzume, how you been since I last dreamed of you?" he asked with a grin.

"Horny as hell with how you manage to take control of those dreams I share with you to be honest. But right now I'm doing my best to control myself in Miya's house. She can be a bit of a prude when it comes to affection." she said before motioning to his goggles, "Can I see your eyes?" she asked.

"Nah. Too sensitive to the light." he told her.

"You hurt yourself?" she asked him.

"No, just light sensitive." he told her shaking his head a couple times.

"And you wear welding goggles to prevent the light from shining in your eyes? Makes no sense." she said.

"If you were me you'd understand completely." he told her as he leaned back in the couch.

"Show me your eyes." Uzume said to him as she climbed into his lap and straddled him. Again he turns away. She turns his head and gently strips the goggles off. He sits with lids shut tight, anticipating the pain. Uzume whispers silently, "Show me." she urges softly to her Ashikabi. Imagine a virgin undressing in front of someone for the first time. That's how Naruto opens his eyes, startling the young woman: No irises, just huge lavender white-pool pupils. And from deep within, a jewel-like eyeshine. His eyes are as beautiful and unsettling as those of a starved jaguar. Uzume swallows, "You did this? To yourself?" she asked him as she gazed into his eyes dreamily.

"Not even close." he tells her in a rough toned voice, "It was a long time ago, but my once sapphire eyes turned this way. A way for the world to basically say that I'm meant to see the world from a different view. I'm more of an animal now than anything, and these eyes, won't let me see the light. Been engulfed in the darkness for to long. I've forgotten the sight of it." he told the busty Sekirei honestly as he takes her features in the light in through his eyes, her body outlined in a pink aura and white sketch in his sights. She's beautiful no doubt about that, but right now she was utterly stunning.

"They're beautiful..." Uzume whispers to herself as she caresses Naruto's cheek, looking into his eyes.

"If you knew half the things I've done, you'd be singing a different tune." Naruto said as he reached down and gripped Uzume by her ass cheeks, "You want me to Wing you now while we aren't eating or after we eat? I don't mind waiting, but why do something after a missed opportunity." he said smirking.

Uzume didn't hesitate as she gripped his face in both her hands, "I need you. I want you so much right now. Kiss me. Make me emerge!" pleaded Uzume while looking up into his eyes.

"I'll do more then just make you emerge Uzume-chan," replied Naruto before kissing her passionately on the lips and making her wings manifest. Light shined brightly as wings of silken white emerged out of her back made up of the finest silk. The wings soon envelope both Shinobi and Sekirei as she tried to deepen her bond with Naruto. As her winging finished she pulled back with a breathless huff, "By the veil of my contract, my Ashikabi's nightmares will be dispelled!" she huffed out with a breathless sigh of pleasure, "When we get to the house, we're fucking, got me?"she asked him.

Naruto gave her a deep chuckle, his that seemingly sound like a lions own purring, "The twins come first. Then Akitsu and finally you. I'll wait til the end of the week to give you all the attention you girls deserve. I barely met the twins less than a week ago and Akitsu a couple days ago before winging you. Let them have the chance to discover such a pleasure before taking the time to discover your own." he told her as he pat her ass and then gave a powerful squeeze that turned Uzume on like no other, "I'm sure you can understand a bit of patience goes a long way, right Uzume-chan?" he asked her.

"Dinner's ready!" a voice called from the kitchen.

"Let's go eat before anything else." Naruto said tapping her on her legs.

XxX

Dinner was a experience Naruto would actually say he could enjoy. The young woman named Kagari was a decent person, and apparently she was a escort/host for the local club. Naruto said she would have paid her three times as much just to go fishing. Naruto spoke with Miya on how he lived practically anywhere the wind blew, having lived in Switzerland, Scotland, Britain, Austria, France, Constantinople, Egypt, Rio de Janiro, Texas, Hollywood, Washington, Alaska, Hong Kong and many other prestigious places.

As dinner came to a close, Naruto sent the twins and Akitsu across the road while he had Uzume wait in the living room for further instructions, seeing as she was a resident of the house, and he helped clean up the dishes so as to not burden Miya with the large chore. Kagari had already went to bathe so he was of no help in that regard. As he finished wiping a dish Naruto turned to lean on the counter and took a deep breath and released it, drawing Miya's attention, "What's the matter Naruto-san?" she asked in a semi-concerned tone, knowing the Ashikabi was thinking hard on something.

Naruto shrugged, "Depends on the situation mostly." he told her, "But right now, I didn't wanna bring it up at the dinner table while we were eating and alert the girls, but I just want to know something if you're okay with me asking." he said to the lavender haired beauty.

"Well it doesn't hurt to ask questions, what would you like to know?" Miya asked him curiously.

Naruto huffed, "Well, not to try and push myself into your personal business, but are you a Sekirei?" he asked her, "It's just you remind me of someone I used to know and I have to confirm or I'll go nuts." he said calmly.

Miya going stiff was all the answer he really needed to confirm his question, but hearing her answer was just as good, "Yes, I am." she said whispering to him.

"Sorry, I don't mean to pry, but you felt similar to the twins and Akitsu I had to ask." he said again.

"You are in no wrong for being curious." Miya said before looking to Naruto, "And I know you just winged Uzume so don't try to pull the wool down over my eyes." she said pointing a wet ladle at him.

"Well that too, but may I ask if it'd be alright if the girls came over to train with you while I'm out. I'm about to begin working a job, and I need help keeping them in shape. I just made the twins and Akitsu some weapons so they could defend themselves when they run out of juice, and what I'll be teaching them isn't exactly friendly for a fight. They'd be learning to fight dirty and deadly, and not defensively." he told her.

Miya nodded, "Of course. I could teach them some when they visit." she told him, "Interesting enough, but what kind of work do you do?" she asked him.

"Depends on who hires my services. I work as a Government Mercenary, Publisher and Writer, Prison Maintenance Enforcer, Food Connoisseur, a Medic for small towns among other jobs. Sometimes I work as Kagari-san does and pleasure ladies who hire me, sometimes I write and perform music, model for fashion artists and help construct buildings. Other times I work as a forest conversationalist or aquatic animal preserver. Like I said, it depends on who hires me." he shrugged.

Miya had to admit, he had quite the resume for someone so young, "And your job that is coming up?" she asked.

"Prison Maintenance Enforcer. I get paid to become a temporary escaped convict that is worth a lot to a bounty hunter and get taken in. My job is to test how well the super-max prison holds up to possible escaping prisoners like Alcatraz Prison would. The bounty hunter doesn't know I work for the government, the prison doesn't know I work for the government. All the prison knows is I'm a felon who has done something to end up in the slammer, and the bounty hunter knows I'm a con that needs to be taken in. The pay will give me a couple million american dollars, and the government gets what it wants and has a prison prodded for defects." he said with a smirk.

Miya wouldn't admit it aloud, but that was a impressive job to have. She then had another thought enter her mind, "And, just how many, prisons have you escaped?" she asked.

"As of right now, roughly over eight hundred, total I couldn't tell you." he said with a wry grin. Which is true, cuz he had escaped a lot of prisons throughout his life, Alcatraz being one of them back in the fifties. Though it had to be said he was also one of the criminals inside. Fun times that was.

"Oh my, you sure do take your job seriously." Miya giggled.

"I take any job I have seriously. If I don't then it costs me, and I don't like being put on the back burner for some second hand schmuck that thinks he can do better than me when I perform, and I've been put on the back burner too many times to count." he said in a deep voice.

Miya wouldn't admit it, but the tone that Naruto had taken when he explained him being pushed out the way was slightly intimidating to her. She cleared her throat, "I see... Well I thank you for helping me out Naruto-san, I think you can help Uzume move out and over to your residency, I will be seeing you when your job is completed." she said.

"I look forward to it too." he said to Miya with a grin of his own.

XxX

Leading her Ashikabi to her room, Uzume was soon packed and ready to move (though admittedly not that far as it was literally across the street) to her Ashikabi's house. Walking out of the now much emptier room, they made their way to the stairs, storage scrolls with the contents within placed at his hip. But as they got to the steps, Naruto stopped before focusing on the wall in front of him, and walked toward it. Uzume, seeing this looked to her new master, "What's the matter Naruto?" she asked him.

"This wall here, it's a hidden room isn't it?" he asked the busty #10.

"Yes, but, you aren't supposed to know that." Uzume hissed silently.

"Not my fault. There's a presence in here, and it's calling out to me, I can't just ignore it now can I?" he asked as he placed a hand on the side of the wall and pushed.

"Naruto, no, we shouldn't be bothering this one." Uzume hissed at him.

Naruto opted to ignore her and turned, "Why don't you just head home or downstairs." he told her as the wall moved.

Uzume merely shrugged. She'd let him handle this one.

Much like he had expected, there was some kind of spoke, or perhaps a rod that had simply been placed in the middle of the wall that allowed for rotational traction. In either case, the wall was quick to yield to his push, rotating around the center so that the left side where his hand had been providing the force moved inwards while the right moved out towards him. Seeing the darkness of the room before him, penetrated only by several lights that Naruto recognized as being from a number of monitors, the blond walked in through the secret entrance.

Much like Naruto had expected the small room was very poorly lit, the single light fixture that Naruto could see on the ceiling was going unused. Instead all of the illumination came from the many dozens of monitors that were stacked along the walls in columns and rows around the three sides of the rooms that the door was not located on. Naruto could count at least two dozen computer monitors of various shapes and sizes splayed along the wall in what could only be called organized chaos. Despite the fact that the monitors looked like they had just been thrown together with no regards to aesthetics, the blond could tell that there was actually a purpose to their placement. Interspersed among the monitors Naruto recognized box-like modems and hard drives, all of which he recognized as belonging to some of the more advanced computer systems in the world. The very little amount of floor space available in the room was being covered by a lumpy futon, which had empty packages of snack food and cans from what Naruto recognized as energy drinks. In short, the entire room looked like a hackers paradise.

Sitting at the far end of the room, next to one of the larger monitors was a woman. Much like all of the other Sekirei he had met, this one was quite beautiful. She looked to be in her early to mid twenties, dressed all in white. Her outfit was some kind of long dress with a higher then normal neckline, it was bare at the shoulders, and slit up the sides nearly to her hips with a small diamond shape gap at the top of her breasts to expose just a hint of her cleavage. She had two sleeve like additions that apparently attached to her dress underneath her armpits and hung low over her hands. She had dull auburn hair that fell low down her back and was framed on either side by a pair of plaits that she had thrown over her shoulders, and her eyes were concealed by a pair of large round glasses that hid a pair of dark red eyes. She looked surprised, her mouth open in shock as the upper half of her body turned to face him. However, the moment her eyes landed on Naruto, her face turned a deep shade of red that was partially hidden by the low lighting.

"Wow, this is an interesting place you have here," Naruto commented lightly, no sign of stress in his voice or on his face. It was a carefully constructed mask that he had perfect when he was not feeling quite as calm as he wished, and right now, the blond was downright unnerved. Looking at the various monitors scattered around the room, Naruto saw that many of them were showing images of the various areas of the house, including the tree where he had been sitting just moments prior.

Just how long as she been spying on him? Was she some kind of spy? Or perhaps some a double agent or something. No, if she were a double agent then she would have revealed herself to him and tried to ingratiate herself with him before he had ever come over to this house. He could also rule out her being a spy. From what he could sense, Miya would never let a spy into her house. Unless of course, she was a spy working for Miya herself, but if that were the case then the woman before him would not be spying on the tenants of the house, would she?

Well, maybe she would spy on him. He knew that Miya was curious about him, it wasn't obvious to anyone but him, but part of the reason the landlady spent so much time with him was because she wanted to learn more about him. However, even as Naruto thought that he noticed another monitor that showed Miya sitting sieza on the floor in front of a shrine, her head bowed as smoke from the incense she was burning drifted lazily in the air in front of her, and immediately ruled the thought of the landlady having this Sekirei spying on him out. She would never allow someone to spy on her, so it was unlikely she even knew what this woman was doing.

"You know, it's rude to be spying on people, especially when you're living with them," he told the woman, whose breathing had begun to pick up. She was taking deep breaths, her shoulders visibly heaving even in the low lighting. Naruto frowned as he noticed that, but put it out of his mind for the moment. He took another step forward, "So may I know the name of the Sekirei that's been spying on me?" he asked. Said Sekirei blinked, her expression managing to convey surprise even as the pace of her breathing began to increase.

"M-Matsu," she rasped out, sounding like she had run a marathon in one hundred degree heat. The flush on her cheeks were beginning to get brighter, the redness actually glowing within the barely illuminated room.

"Well, Matsu," Naruto began as he took another step forward. He was on a roll now, his mind determining the quickest way to get the information he wanted from her, which was why she was spying on him. There were a number of interrogation techniques he could use, anything from mental and physical torture to seduction and psychological word games. Since the person he was interrogating was a Sekirei, he had decided to go with psychological word games. He would have gone with seduction, but wasn't sure it would work on a Sekirei. "I suppose since you were so kind as to give me your name, it's only right I give you mine. I'm..."

"Uzumaki Naruto," the woman interrupted as she turned to him. She was using her arms to hold the upper half of her body up, but they were trembling so badly they looked like they might give out at any moment, "Age: 26, height: 6 feet 4 inches, weight: 190 pounds, build: lean athletic, hair color: blond, eyes: assumed to be blind, Sekirei he's winged: Twin Sekirei #11 and #12 Hibiki and Hikari, Former Scrapped Number #07 Akitsu the Ice Sekirei and not even six hours ago #10 Uzume the Veil Sekirei. Has only been in Shinto Teito for exactly seven days, but has already winged four Sekirei and has earned to title of Miracle Worker due to his winging of former scrapped number, Akitsu. On top of that, very little is known about Naruto other than that he is a wanderer who has visited a number of different countries within the past several years."

Naruto's hand twitched, almost summoning a kunai into it. If he had been wary about this girl before, now he was downright paranoid. While most of that information would have been easy for her to obtain since she had apparently been spying on him for some time, some of that was not. As far as he knew there had been no mention of Akitsu being a former scrapped number during any of the conversations he'd had with the girls (which admittedly wasn't much when he wasn't training them to fight). Which meant she had been doing far more than just spying on him.

The only good thing Naruto could determine from this was that Matsu had said he was a compete mystery, meaning whatever information she had managed to gather, she had only been able to find the information he himself had spread for others to follow. That was good, it meant that the people under his, ahem, employ were doing their job and eliminating any and all information and images that could be found on him that he didn't want. Still, it was almost negligible when compared to the fact that this Sekirei had been spying on him for so long.

During the woman's recounting of all the information she had on him, Matsu had begun to crawl forward on her hands and knees, stopping when she was just barely a foot in front of him. Her eyes never left his as she tilted her head and looked up at him, and it was now, when she was this close to him that Naruto realized there was something wrong with her. No, not something wrong with her, something familiar.

He had seen this kind of reaction before.

The twins when he had first encountered them.

And it was in that moment of realization that Naruto noticed everything else about her that he had been to been to focused on acquiring his information to notice before. The way her cheeks flared brilliantly within the darkened chamber as she looked at him. Her half lidded eyes hidden underneath the fringe of her bangs and behind those round spectacles. That seductive way she was sitting, leaning forward on her hands and knees with her arms pushing her cleavage together. The scent of her arousal filling his nose, a heady scent that made Naruto's head spin. It wasn't long after taking in these observations that his eyes widened in realization.

"In other words, a very mysterious person," Matsu continued as Naruto took a cautious step back. As she spoke, her left hand came up to press her palm against her breast, right above her head. "You, who are a complete mystery to everyone, is the Ashikabi of this Sekirei, number zero two, Matsu." She crawled forward another step, and Naruto took another step back. "Now..." she said, her eyes taking on a gleam that was actually beginning to unnerve the blond, "Please calm this hot body with your thick, hot, DNA." she pleaded with him.

Finally, she pounced.

Naruto wasn't given a chance to dodge, evade or maneuver out of the redhead's way as she tumbled across the floor with him. Naruto wasn't going to lie, he cried like a bitch. His scream echoing through the hall as he cried out at the way this redhead grasped at him in a way similar to a former perverted toad sage would when he spoke about women. Before he could contemplate on how to escape from the clutches of this seemingly perverse woman, she spoke up in a deep sultry voice as her arms slid around his neck, her body pressed itself against his, her breathing picked up some more and her face began to flush as her eyes became half lidded.

"With our kiss," the red head spoke, her warm breath hitting Naruto's lips, "This number #02, Matsu, will be your Sekirei." and no more words were spoken as Matsu pressed her lips to Naruto's.

Bye-bye Virgin Alarm.(3)

Once more, Naruto felt his chakra being drained from him. Even after feeling it happen four other times it still felt strange. Behind Matsu, her Sekirei crest emerged, and with it bright, golden wings appeared behind her back. The wings were much different from any of the other ones Naruto had seen so far. They looked more geometric in shape, the edges were crisper, sharper, hard lines and angles that could not be produced by anything organic. And then the wings dispersed, and Naruto was left only with the feel Matsu's lips against his. They were warm, moist, intoxicating. As the kiss continued, Naruto felt the woman kissing him getting bolder. Her tongue moved past his lips and tried to slip in between his teeth, her body was starting to grind against his. Blinking, it took him a second to uncross his eyes and see that her face was also much clearer now, the details he had missed before now sharpened and enhanced.

He did not like that look on her face.

"And now," Matsu started, giggling as she wiggled and squirmed against him, her glasses gleaming ominously in the light. "It's time for the experimentation!"

"Eh?" Naruto blinked as his mind registered and processed the words of the woman straddling his waist. After a second of blinking, the blond finally seemed to realize his predicament and tried to get out of it. "N-Now Matsu," he started, beginning to back away from the perverted woman, or at least trying to. Considering she was straddling and clinging to him, his attempt didn't go so well. "Do-Don't you think we should take it slow?"

"Fuhuhuhu," Matsu's perverted old man giggling sent shivers down the blonds spine. "Come on, Naruto-tan. Don't be shy now, it's time for us to get to know what another intimately as Sekirei and Ashikabi. Fuhuhu..."

"It has nothing to do with me being shy," Naruto stated, almost pouting that she would even insinuate such a thing, even as he continued to contradict his words by squirming away. "I'm just concerned about what Miya might do to you."

"Miya?" Matsu blinked. "Why would Miya do anything?"

"Oh, I don't know," the voice of Miya came from behind Matsu, causing her to freeze. The sound of cold steel being pulled from it's sheathe resounded throughout the room, and the red head gulped as Miya's blade came to rest against her neck, caressing her jugular. "Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I was almost positive that I have expressly forbidden any illicit activity within Mason Izumo."

"Ah ah ha, r-right," Matsu laughed, not her perverted old man laughs, but a nervous laugh of fear "W-Why do I have this thing on my neck?"

"I would like to ask you cease any and all illicit activity, Matsu-san," Miya told the red head in her pleasant and beautiful voice. It was enough to put the fear of god in the heart of Matsu. "Please get off Uzumaki-kun now."

"Ah hehehehe... r-right," Matsu said, and then paused, "Um, Miya?"

"Yes?" the woman asked, her pleasant expression still in place.

"C-Can you please take this thing off my neck? I'm afraid if I move around I might accidentally slit my throat."

Miya blinked at Matsu.


Ok that is going to be it for this chapter, please leave a LIKE/FAVORITE/FOLLOW to show the story some love and don't forget to please also COMMENT/REVIEW to show me that you read the chapter and liked it.

1. Yes I am making Homura a female in this story from the get go. I mean, personally why make a male turn into a female the way they did in the series was dumb so rather than the transformation I'm just going to have Homura be a woman from the start.

2. Akitsu's Rapier is based off of Weiss Schnee's own, but without the barrel and dust powder and looks like a normal rapier would. Shout-out to Man at Arms Reforged for the video on making it so I could use the dialogue as a way to make me sound smart when it comes to making things (Which I am definitely not) and for Tachyon99 for the suggestion on Akitsu's weapon.

3. If you don't get this reference, look up SPACEBALLS, it's funny as fuck. I loved watching it as a kid growing up.


Chapter 5


Hiroto Minaka was very pleased with the news he had been given, "Good, very good. Now all we need to do is get a few more and the game will be all set up. I can't wait to see how you get yourself out of this one Naruto Uzumaki." the madman laughed.

"Minaka, finish your paperwork. If it sits there to long it multiplies, you know this." Takami said as she poked her head through the window.

Minaka cringed as he looked at the pile that had suddenly grown more than twice in size, "HOW'D IT GET SO BIG IN SUCH SHORT TIME?!" his cry echoed throughout the building.

Ah the wonder of paperwork, man's biggest pain in the keister, most just called it the bane of existence.


With Uzume and Matsu now moved into Naruto's house, things had to be changed a bit. Naruto had used a special and ingenious seal that gave Matsu more than enough room for her hacker's paradise computer setup as well as a bed, television, couch, recliner and other commodities she would enjoy in her room. Uzume's room had been given a super-sized closet for all her outfits she liked to wear and dress up in. Her part time job as a helper in hospital that was formerly owned by the Izumi family had found itself wanting no business with kidnappers and thugs who did everything for money and thus the family found itself bankrupt in a matter of years.

It just so happened Naruto also owned said hospital and used M.B.I tech as well to help the injured and sick.

But then again who doesn't own their own hospital?

Currently, Naruto was finishing up a bit of paperwork that he had been wanting to get done for a while now, and he supposed he could have done something different in how he was going about it, but he was already finished. Sliding the paper to the middle of the table he huffed as he stood up,"Any news on how your training is going girls?" he asked as he walked to the kitchen.

Sitting at the end of the couch her Ashikabi had just left, Hibiki looked at the paper and blinked in confusion, "What's this about?" she asked as she picked up the paper, "'Snake venom's required for immunization'" she read off the page.

"Leave the list alone, it is actually vital for not just me, but for all of you as well." Naruto said as he walked back in to the family room and kept on walking past where he snatched it from her and continued to walk.

"And a list of snake venom is necessary because?" Uzume asked him.

"I'm going to be injecting the venom into me, so that I can ensure that I survive against dangerous poisons. I haven't really encountered the snakes on this list as of late as I have been mostly secluded to other regions of the world gathering other types of snake venom's and poisonous plants where I could. Not only that, but I need to do venom and poison injections at certain intervals of time to maintain a constant immunity." Naruto explained as he walked back into the room, "But if you really wanna know, follow me." he told them as he walked in the direction of another room.

Unlocking a door, the twins, Matsu, Uzume, and Akitsu were given the sight of walls of poisons that lined almost every inch of the room, "Holy shit." Hikari said with wide eyes, "Is this a room filled with venom's?" she asked.

"Not just that, some of the plants here as well as some of the venom's are from extinct animals, so if you break it, you will be sorry, so I think it'd be best not to touch anything in here until I say it is safe to." he said before walking over to a rather large vial of milky venom, "This here, probably the world's deadliest snake that had ever been born, well bred actually." Naruto said as he shook the vial, "Took me a long time to breed this special venom, and even then it nearly did me in a couple times when I first caught it." he admitted.

"What animal gave that much venom?" Hibiki asked nervously.

Naruto grinned, "Laophis Crotaloides, or as it is known, the Colossal Viper. Almost twice as deadly as the King Cobra." he stated.

Matsu shook her head,"But that snake's been extinct for centuries, how could you have bred it?"the redhead asked him.

"All in due time Matsu, all in due time." Naruto told her.

"Ah... he's immortal."Akitsu said.

"Yea, I am." Naruto said.

"What!?" Matsu cried out, the twins and Uzume ignoring her as they looked around the extremely large room of deadly toxins and flora.

"We'll discuss this later girls." he said in a serious tone that left no room for argument.

"Geez, you are obsessed with poisons and venom's." Uzume muttered.

"These poisons are the things that are going to help you survive if someone lets the poison out in your face or injects it into your bloodstream. Be grateful we are starting at the bottom of the list and moving up. And yes, I will be mixing the venom and poisons at certain points, but not until you're ready for them." Naruto said as he replaced the vial of venom back in it's spot and ushered them out the door and locked it back.

"Ah... when do we begin getting... injected?" Akitsu asked him.

"When my order of snakes come in. They will be arriving in about a week. I have spent a lot of money on them, so I think the patience will be worth it." Naruto said as he sat down and popped a beer open, "But for now, you may do anything you like bar kill anyone that doesn't attack you first." he told them.

"Just how many of those snakes did you order exactly?" Hikari asked him as she turned to face him.

"Every snake that was placed on the list you saw with there being 2 of each, one male and female apiece, and I plan on crossbreeding some of them to make new venom's to inject myself and you with." Naruto said as he drank the alcohol.

"So there are gonna be over sixty snakes that live in this house, where are we gonna put them, who's gonna feed them?" Hibiki asked in shock.

"Snakes can have anywhere between 8-30 sometimes even 40-80 young depending on species, so you best rethink those numbers when two to six years pass from now." Matsu said.

"She's right about the numbers. As for what I have planned for food, only the strong survive, it's the circle of life even for them." Naruto said.

"That's kinda cruel, don't you think?" Uzume asked her Ashikabi.

"It's to manage their numbers. When you have that many snakes, it's best to eliminate those you can't sustain. Zoo's don't take in hatchlings and the wild would kill them after have been around humans for so long. Besides, wild snakes give off a much more potent venom. And the little ones always hold the most inside the venom glands and it is always at its most deadly when they are born. A single generation of wild snakes bred in captivity holds enough venom to end a city if they are released at the proper location, I'm just ensuring that it never comes to that for you girls." he told them.

"So, you're planning ahead for a possible fallout?" Hibiki asked him.

"Partially. My main reason is that when I get back from a job we're going out of the city to train." he told them.

"Ah... Naruto-sama, we can't." Akitsu said.

"Why not, it's just training." Naruto said turning to her.

"Minaka has put up a armed border using the M.B.I militia or something like that." Matsu explained.

"Hmph, as if that's gonna stop us." Naruto said.

"You would put us in danger so casually? Are you nuts, they have guns!"Hikari cried out.

"And you are all busty aliens with supernatural abilities pertaining to the elements or the mind." Naruto responded, "Your argument is moot at this point. We're going, and there is no changing my mind." he told them.

"Just what kind of job are you doing?" Hibiki asked him.

"Can't say. All you need to know is I'll be back when I get back." he told her as he ushered the girls out of the room and closed the door and locked it behind him, "I should be back in a couple days to a week if everything goes to plan." he told the girls, "So don't worry, I'll be fine." he told her.

"Well when do you leave?" Uzume asked him.

"Couple days." he responded.

"Well what about our training?" Hikari asked him.

"You'll do the basics of what i taught you until I get back. I've locked up your blades so you can use the practice ones made of wood til I get back. As for Uzume and Matsu's weapons, I will construct them when I return from my job and begin teaching them how to use them properly." he told her.

"Ok." the rough edged twin said nodding her head.

"Can Matsu still experiment with Naruto-tan before he goes off?" Matsu asked with a giggle.

"You're seriously gonna ask him that when he hasn't even slept with us yet, how rude." Hikari said as she crossed her arms.

"We haven't had sex yet so you won't either." Hibiki agreed with her sister.

"Ah... us first." Akitsu agreed.

"She won't stop bugging you til you do something." Uzume told him.

Naruto sighed and wrapped his arms around the shoulders of the twins and walked away while saying over his shoulder's, "When I get back it's Akitsu's turn, and then Uzume. You can go last as you are my final Sekirei, how's that?" he asked with a grin.

Uzume burst into laughter as Matsu felt her world shatter around her, "B-B-But w-w-what? Th-That's not fair!" Matsu whined out causing Uzume to laugh all the more harder.

"Fine, why don't we all have a good fuck, come on if you're up fora good romp in the sheets!" Naruto called back.

"He's not serious is he? Sekirei have incredible stamina so he might last only a few rounds with just a couple of us." Uzume said.

"I'm dead serious!" Naruto called back to Uzume.

Pushing the door to the room open, the twins had gained a healthy blush as Naruto ushered the girls all into the room, Matsu's perverse laughter ringing in his ears. He would make her last for sure if those sounds were anything to go by. Not only that, but it had been a few years since he laid with a woman or any group of women for that matter. As of right now, he had a couple of twins to smash into the mattress. Then he had a sexy Yuki Onna to screw silly followed by a busty silk weaver and then Matsu. He planned on ruining all of them to the point that they would never go to another man for pleasure.

Stripping his shirt off, the girls were once more treated to Naruto's various battle scars as he turned around to face them, "You gonna strip, or am I gonna be alone here?" he asked and watched as Hibiki and Hikari soon took their shirts off revealing sexy blue and red bra's, "Those are some sexy tits." Naruto said as he reached up and gripped Hikari's breasts through her bra, "You have a nice pair of tits on you as well Hibiki." he told her with a grin. Both women giggled at that. Hibiki discarded her bra and strode over to her beloved before leaning against him which allowed her Ashikabi to grope her bare breasts. While they weren't the same exact size as her sisters, she was just as big to the point that her Ashikabi could get a good handful of her pliable flesh.

Her arms, without any command or hesitation, reached up and coiled their way around Naruto's body; as for the blond himself, he chuckled before putting an arm around the young woman's waist and pulling her towards him, "So where are the other girls that have decided to wing themselves to me?" he asked, turning around to see that the doorway was empty.

Guess they didn't wanna screw silly.

"I thought they'd be right behind us." Hikari muttered.

"Guess I got no choice then, than to leave them out of the fun until I finish up with the two of you." he smirked as he tossed his goggles off to the side.

XxX

"Uzume-tan, why did you not let us join in the fun?" Matsu asked glaring at the busty brunette.

"Because, it's their time and we can have our own time with him when he gets back Matsu." Uzume responded to the redhead.

"Ah... I'm next." Akitsu stated as she held a single finger up.

"Yes, yes you are." Uzume nodded her head.

XxX

A resounding pop sounded as Naruto smacked Hikari on her round buttocks where upon doing so, he was given the pleasure of watching her face turn a deep red. Looking to Hibiki he spoke calmly, "Let me take care of your sister I'll have our time together shortly." he told her and got a nod in return. Slowly walking to the bed, Naruto laid the young woman on the bed and quickly pushed Hikari onto her back and gripped her ankles, holding her legs high in the air. Grabbing her panties,he quickly pulled them down her legs and off her feet. She was now completely naked before her Ashikabi.

"You might as well strip too. I won't belong with her." Naruto told Hibiki.

Paying their audience no mind, Hikari wasted no time. She wanted this man, now! Sitting up, she began fumbling about with his trousers, she managed to extract her prize, stroking his impressive girth. Upon discovering its sheer size, she was utterly lost. Nothing and no one was going to stop her, now! The instant she saw what her Ashikabi was packing, Hikari went lightheaded.

Holy shit! Were they even supposed to get that big?!

The damn thing might as well have been a third leg! Two inches thick, and twelve inches long both women suddenly felt uncomfortably warm in an area they knew would be ruined for anyone other than him. Naruto pushed Hikari back onto her back while raising her legs back by the knees and she guided him to her entrance. Naruto smirked before he chuckled, as he closed his eyes and slowly started to push. Once the head poked its way inside his Sekirei, he scooted closer, so he could go in deeper. Then, he started pushing, again.

Hikari blushed at the touch of her Ashikabi, before letting out a guttural moan at the feel of his tip parting her folds and stretching her small opening to degrees it simply wasn't meant to reach. But she enjoyed the feeling of it stretching her out impossibly far. Slowly but surely, he slid into her little by precious little. Then, she wailed like a whore as he grabbed her hips and started pulling her crotch towards his.

Wham wham wham wham!

He went fast and he went hard from the get-go. The sound of skin slapping skin filled the room as Naruto made Hikari his bitch in a matter of seconds, much to the shocked awe of her younger twin sister Hibiki. Not even two seconds in, Hikari squealed both figuratively and otherwise, cumming all over his cock. Hibiki felt her knees buckle at the sight. A painful longing ripped through her, as Naruto withdrew again, and slammed back into his thrashing Sekirei. The sight, the smell, the sound... It was unbearable! Every thud, every strike to Hikari's cervix, sent a shiver up the essentially-naked Hibiki's spine.

It was so hot! Why was it so hot?! Unable to bear the heat, the young Sekirei started shedding her clothes, bit by bit, unable to take her eyes off the graphic spectacle before them her eyes. Naruto, however was not known for his ability to relent. He kept slamming into Hikari, his pace picking up slowly. Hikari would never be the same again after this! Not even ten thrusts in, and she was already nearing her next orgasm. She couldn't take much more of it! How was he doing this to her?! She squealed, again, moaning lewdly, as her dripping folds made even more vulgar sounds from being so thoroughly violated.

Sure enough, Naruto's pace picked up, leaving his partner in a state of constant orgasm, as the sound of flesh on flesh and the lewd slurping of Hikari's deceptively small cootch echoed throughout the house. Still, he pounded her without mercy. Slamming as deep as he would go and at inhuman speeds, now, Naruto could feel Hikari's constantly-fluttering inner walls taking their toll on him. Would he be able to pull out?

No, he couldn't, and he knew it! Her vice-like grip upon him made it all but impossible!

He was out of breath… his balls ached for release… He needed it so badly!

"I hope you don't mind what I'm about to do," he rasped. "I can't hold BACK!"

With that last word, Naruto slammed into Hikari once more, pulling her towards him to go as deep as he could reach, as he blew every last drop he had into the first piece of nice ass he'd had in over a decade. With every spurt came a thrust, ensuring it went as far in as possible, subconsciously trying his damnedest to make sure she conceived. With every thrust came a gasp from the still-catatonic Sekirei. With every gasp their spectator only became twice as horny.

Soon, a small bulge started forming. Hikari's womb stretched to accommodate the most impossibly gargantuan load she'd ever experienced. Which needless to say, was also her first.

Naruto panted heavily. Damn, that felt good! He looked the still-recovering Sekirei beneath him in the eye and leaned down, pulling her into a deep, soul searing kiss. Poor Hibiki was flat on her ass. Her world was spinning and she tried to blink the white fog from her eyes… The instant she saw Naruto blow his load inside her sister, she… passed out? No… It didn't feel like she did… She shook her head to try and clear the fog… the ringing in her ears, as she tried to ignore that she was sitting in a puddle of her own juices. She came a long time ago, though she would never admit it. Naruto pulled away from Hikari's lips, whose tongue once again lolled from her mouth - a bridge of drool connecting to their tongues.

She moaned, as her chest heaved with every breath she took. And as Naruto pulled out, the woman let out a broken moan. Hibiki couldn't take this anymore! Her rational side took the back seat as repressed sexual urges took the forefront. Naruto didn't have time to react when the dark haired woman threw herself at him, throwing him over the bed and flat on his ass and straddling him. He let out a grunt of discomfort when she took hold of his shoulders and shoved him down, the back of his head smacking against the floor. He'd taken worse hits than that, so it wasn't too bad. But, then, his discomfort was forgotten, when the Sekirei atop him started grinding her folds against his shaft.

"P-please," she begged. "Do whatever you want to me! Use me to your heart's desire! I need you!" she pleaded with him. Not one to turn down a lady's wishes, Naruto chuckled and pulled her down into a deep, searing kiss. He rubbed her back and groped her rear, as she returned the affection - sliding her tongue into his mouth with both hands on his cheeks. Naruto then reached around and started rubbing Hibiki's wet slit from behind, eliciting a longing whimper from the woman. She was utterly soaked. Apparently, they could skip the foreplay. With a devious smirk, Naruto guided his already rock-hard shaft to her lower lips and rubbed the tip against her.

The young woman jolted as a result with a yelp. "I-it's my first time," she cautioned, blushing hard at the realization that she actually admitted it. Naruto's eyes went a bit wide and then, he gave her yet another devilish grin. The thought of popping his Sekirei's cherry was one he simply couldn't resist. So as not to hurt her, though, he slid in gently. Hibiki bit her lip feeling his tip slowly part her folds with a wet squish. Just as he had with her sister, he inserted himself into her at an agonizingly slow, gentle pace. He then paused briefly to bend his knees and put his hands on her hips for better leverage and stability, Once he did, Naruto started sliding into her just a hair more quickly.

Hibiki wailed in both pleasure and discomfort, as the only man she'd ever touched in such a way stretched her wide and deep. Damn, he felt so huge! Would he even fit? She didn't know for sure, but if he could fuck her big sister the way he did without killing her, then she herself would be fine… right? After what felt like an eternity, the Sekirei finally felt Naruto's balls touch her rear and his tip poke at her cervix. She groaned in a mix of pain and pleasure. "Let me know when I can start moving," the man whispered, a caring look in his eye.

Hibiki felt the most devastating, horrific pang of longing she'd ever experienced rip through every fiber of her being. Her Ashikabi cared about her. While he didn't really show it, even after knowing him for just a week, but the manner in which he just spoke-showed volumes. Hibiki felt as her eyes rolled back as she started lifting herself up, before slamming back down, leaving herself cross-eyed. She panted heavily and did it again… and again… and again. Taking the hint, Naruto started moving as well, matching her bounces with a thrust and meeting her in the middle. She felt so good damn good, her virgin folds squeezing him like a vice every time he slid back into her.

Hibiki couldn't believe what was going on! Her Ashikabi was making sweet, legitimate love to her! She was in heaven! Never in her life had the #12 Sekirei felt so damn good… so damn happy… so damn loved! She threw her head back and squealed, her inner walls clamping down upon her lover's shaft, trying to squeeze the essence from him. The sky turned upside-down, she saw stars and a loud hum drowned her ears, as Hibiki twitched and moaned, gasping for breath. Then, Naruto suddenly picked up the pace, eliciting a startled yelp from the woman. Then she lost all thought, as Naruto started pounding her at a brisk, even pace. Not even a full ten seconds later, she came, again.

This time, her juices splashed all over Naruto's lap, mixing with her twin's own, as the most powerful orgasm she'd ever experienced tore through her very soul. Then, Naruto's member started to twitch, once more. His balls started to tighten, and his breath went shallow. "Hibiki," he warned, "If you don't wanna risk getting pregnant, hop off right now! I can't hold it!" he warned her.

And yet he had finished inside her sister? "Go ahead," she whispered longingly, "Go ahead… Let it all out inside me!"

Naruto's lavender eyes rolled back. Upon hearing that, he lost control completely! Pulling her into a deep, smoldering kiss, Naruto rolled them over so that he was on top and used his embrace as leverage to thrust in deeper.

Wham wham wham wham wham!

The sound of flesh pounding flesh and her squelching cunny filled the room, and soon Hibiki's wails joined them as her legs were pushed back by Naruto's weight. Now in a full-on mating press, Naruto pounded Hibiki into the ground; his swollen balls were very eager to finally empty themselves inside her fertile body. Hibiki aided in his efforts, locking her ankles behind him and pulling the man… her man as far into her depths as he could possibly reach, and then, Naruto roared as he slammed into her folds, poking his head past her cervix and flooding her darkest depths with his fresh, dangerously-potent batch of baby batter.

Hibiki's eyes rolled back, and she went stiff as a board, her orgasmic wail caught in her throat. One last time, her inner walls milked her man for everything he had - every… last… drop. If she was going to run the risk of having his child, then she'd be damned if she didn't give it her best shot! That thought… the mental image it elicited - that of her holding an adorable baby girl with those cute, little whisker marks - had only intensified her orgasm to inconceivable heights. His shaft throbbed, his balls visibly contracted, and his whole body twitched as the blond actively attempted to knock this woman up.

The poor girl never stood a chance; she passed out right then and there without another word.

Coming back down from his high, Naruto couldn't help but let out a hearty, warm chuckle. He had a feeling this Sekirei in particular was going to be the death of him, and he wouldn't have it any other way.

Deep within said woman's belly millions upon millions of tiny foreign cells swam up her fallopian tubes with one purpose: to find their other half and mercilessly dogpile it until one of them took root, thereby starting the process of passing down Naruto's genes.

It wouldn't be long until they found their target…

Naruto groaned uncomfortably, as he gently slid out of the unconscious woman's still-fluttering slit. It felt almost painful to withdraw from that one. Naruto gasped for breath. Holy shit, that took a lot outta him! He hadn't cum this much in a woman since that time he had fucked every woman in Nadeshiko on a bet made by Shizuka and Tsunade. And said woman was also Shizuka who started the royal debauchery.


-2 weeks later-

In the snowy mountains of Japan, Naruto ran through the howling winds as fast as his feet could carry him without the use of chakra. Behind him the thrumming beat of a helicopter could be heard as he raced across the tundra. The areal vehicle wasn't like most military based air combative vehicles used by the modern world. See, this chopper was a experimental vehicle being used by the Japanese government to improve their areal superiority over her enemies. If any other country had managed to capture this vehicle, there would be no telling what could happen.

The vehicle was a combination between a helicopter and jet. The chopper had two sled-like landing skids in the back that would lower and a solitary one underneath the middle of the cockpit. Two jet engines were seen visibly underneath the helicopter blades up at the front. When it was in its 'Helicopter Mode' the helicopter blades would of course be out and spinning to keep it up in the air, but there was no tail rotor to help it maneuver and instead used powerful turbines to push it in the direction it needed to go. When it was in its 'Jet Mode' the helicopter blades would stop spinning and retract to a set of grooves to improve aerodynamics while the jet turbines located underneath the blades would activate.

This would improve speed, but the maneuverability would be hampered due to the fact it could only move in linear fashions, and it was incapable of landing in this mode. Thus the reason it was still in its developing stages. Oh don't get the wrong idea, the vehicle worked almost perfectly, but there were still problems with how it maneuvered in certain directions and weather conditions, but other than that it flew... almost perfectly.

It also didn't help that the Japanese Government literally decided to follow in the steps of the old movie The 6th Day with Arnold Schwarzenegger in it and try and build it.

This craft, was known as the 'Whispercraft'

Regardless, Naruto was running across large plains with minimal cover to try and evade his hard part was that they could easily move to where he was whenever he hid to dodge one of the darts or nets they shot at him. Inside the cockpit, the pilot jerked control and spun the vehicle around a tree, "Lining him up for you." the pilot commented, "There's a port side shot coming up." he told his gunner who dangled out of the aircraft like a pinata, "Steady. Here we go." he said as the controls began to shake in his hands.

Naruto just continued to run as the vehicle pursued him, leaping up over a boulder as the aircraft continued its pursuit of him.

The pilot grinned as his aircraft gained more ground on the running blond, "Steady." he told his gunner before he commanded, "Take it, take the shot!" he yelled out. The gunner had locked his sights on Naruto and quickly pulled the trigger. The sound of his gun going off filled his ears as his net shot out. However, Naruto's hearing allowed him to leap around the next boulder where it embedded itself into the rock. Seeing that Naruto wasn't snared by the net the Pilot cursed in annoyance. They were almost out of nets and couldn't afford to let the blond get away like he had been able to for the last eight hours.

Just how much stamina did this guy have?!

"Kiba, we're almost out of space!" a man said behind him.

"Shut up, I got this." he snarled back, "Shoot it again!" he commanded his gunner. The gun went off again and raced towards Naruto as he dodged around another boulder where it smashed into the rock like the others. However the aircraft had also run out of room to fly straight, "NOW!" Kiba desperately yelled out and the net was shot out once again, though this time one of the prongs managed to nail itself into Naruto's leg from behind causing him to stumble a bit and fall.

"KIBA!" the man yelled out as Kiba yanked back hard on the flight controls and the aircraft quickly tipped back to come to a stop. Inside the dark cavern, Naruto yanked the prong out of his leg and looked at the blood that it had drawn from him and he growled in slight annoyance. That was the second time this had happened today during this chase. Flipping several different switches Kiba turned off the crafts helicopter mode and the sound of the jets firing up was heard as the blades slotted themselves into their grooves. Dropping the prong he drew a couple knives out and stepped out into the open as they shined their spotlights down on him.

"There he is." Kiba said with a greedy grin.

Nodding his head behind him, Naruto turned and continued to run.

Outside the secondary gunner shook his head and spoke into his communicator, "I don't know about this Kiba, it looks kinda tight." he told his friend.

However, Kiba's greed overrode his sense of logic, "Not from where I'm sitting. This is the biggest payday ever, so throw on a fresh pair of big boy panties. Let's get this done right." he said as he pushed the craft controls forward. The jet pushed into the deep cavern and maneuvered where need be, but the walls didn't allow for spins in case a dead in came upon them and would leave no choice but for the bounty hunters to call for backup if they got stuck.

Inside the darkness, Naruto used his blades as a way to scale a wall of ice while his pursuers searched for him. He would have used his Chakra, but the key to getting what he wanted lied in his abilities in stealth. Kiba's navigator spoke to the pilot as he flipped several switches, "Three meters clearance port, one and a half starboard." he told the man "You got a choke point coming up." he said as Kiba pulled back on the controls.

Meanwhile, Naruto was hidden from his pursuers sight and listened. He heard them rise up a couple meters and he smirked as he watched them begin to draw past him. As the front of the aircraft passed, he rose up from his crouched position and lashed out from behind his hiding spot, cutting the harness that held the gunner up where he fell down from his spot in the air. While the man screamed as he fell down, Naruto was already one the move as the craft came to a screeching halt, "The shit was that?" Kiba asked as he looked out the window.

Moving a spotlight he shined it on the gunner and saw that the only thing there was the cut harness, "Bones you got eyes on him?" he asked, only to get nothing in response, "Bones?" he asked turning another spotlight where he once again was given the sight of a cut harness and no gunner. The only thing that was left, was the now dangling netting gun that Bones had been using in the hunt for Naruto.

The Navigator gulped in nervousness, "Jesus Christ, he just ghosted two guys and we never even saw him." he said. Looking to Kiba he asked, "What you think we aught to do? I mean come on." he said.

Kiba shook his head in annoyance, "I think you're my new gunner. Grab a net and sit by the door." he ordered. With no other choice, the man grabbed the gun and opened the door of the aircraft. Pushing forward, Kiba continued to look around for any signs of his target, "Stay on top of him this time." he told the man.

Coming up to a large arc of rock, Kiba pulled the aircraft up to go over, not realizing that his target was literally standing on top of the twin vehicle. As the jet came to a stop, Naruto reached down and grabbed the man by the collar and gave a grunt as he pulled him up and out of the Whispercraft. The man cried out as he fell, hitting several rocks on the way down before he landed in a pile of snow. Feeling like something was off, Kiba brought the aircraft to a stop before he turned around, and saw that his navigator, was missing. Shaking his head he turned back around and flipped several switches and activated Hover Mode.

That idiot probably fell out at the sight of a shadow. As he went to unbuckle himself, a gravelly voice spoke to him, "You made three mistakes." it said, causing Kiba to stop in his movements and look up. Sitting before him was a snow covered Naruto with his hands in his lap, "First, you took the job." he said, "Second, you came light. A four man crew for me, fucking insulting." he grunted out in annoyance. Used to they sent entire platoons. Shaking his head he hit the biggest nail, "But the worst mistake you made..." Naruto said as Kiba released his seat belt and reached for the gun rack, "Empty gun-rack." he said calmly as Kiba grimaced at the sight.

At a seconds notice, Naruto jumped at the man and slammed him on the frame and then lifted him up and dropped him in a chair while drawing out a knife, "What's the bounty on my head?" he asked.

Kiba snorts, "One mil." he told the lavender eyed man. Naruto could feel he was lying and stomped on his ankle eliciting a cry of pain, and then put the knife to his knee causing him to quickly shut up, "One point five." he quickly amended his statement.

"What slam pays one point five mil for a convict?" he asked, keeping up the pretense that he didn't know where he was supposed to go. Oh he'd give the guys a run for their money, but that didn't mean he had to play by the governments rules.

"Private party." Kiba sneered out. Naruto cut the mans pant leg up to nearly the groin causing Kiba to grow nervous, "Hey, hey, hey, hey! Guy! Easy! Anonymous! That's what the sheet said." Kiba said hurriedly.

"WHAT SLAM!?" Naruto yelled out.

"The Pit. The Tartarus Pit." Kiba growled out.

Naruto looked to the controls of the aircraft and didn't miss Kiba lunging forward trying to do something stupid. He quickly lifted the knife in his hand up to the mans throat stopping him in his tracks, "Whoa, where do you think you're going?" Naruto asked in a calm tone, "Last question. And you better get this one right, merc." he said before leaning into Kiba's face, "Who's aircraft is this?" he asked.

Kiba was unsure of how to answer and shrugged, "Mine?" he asked.

Outside on the ground,having just clawed his way out of the snow, the Navigator looked around to see where he was when he heard the sound of yelling coming from above. Looking up, he was treated to the sight of Kiba's ass when he slammed into him and once again buried the both of them under the snow. Back inside the aircraft, Naruto jerked the controls and the Whispercraft rotated around, dipping to the point the ass tipped vertically before it managed to turn around and face the other way. With another jerk of the controls, Naruto raced forward, ripping some of the rigging off the side of the aircraft as he left the cavernous dark he had ambushed the bounty hunters.

Best to just leave the Whispercraft somewhere and let the chase continue.

Flying off, Naruto paid no mind to the cursing bounty hunters back in the caves.


So yea, first lemon of the story (Many more to come in the future) I honestly just went with the flow, and I think I did pretty well. Now, don't ask the usual question 'is he going to knock up every girl he sleeps with on the first try?' cuz I'll simply answer it here and now, and the answer is no.

Now, normally, in stories involving the Sekirei universe, the Sekirei are given medicine/drugs to prevent pregnancies, powerful drugs, while the few males are given the same to turn them sterile. Here, there are no drugs. They might be aliens, but here they are (as you know) practically human just that they have superpowers. The only difference is, naruto is slightly more potent than other Ashikabi due to his chakra, genetics and other things. Sekirei are just slightly more potent (for the males) and just a tiny fraction more fertile (for the females) than regular humans.

Minaka will see it as a way to make the game more interesting if anything. Fighting to protect ones children/family and all that with possibility of death being high.

Anyways, that is going to be it for this chapter, please LIKE/FAVORITE/FOLLOW show this story some sweet love and don't forget to COMMENT/REVIEW to tell me what you guys all thought about this chapter PEACE!


And chapter 6 is finally up. Sorry for the delayed wait, but here ya go.


Naruto groaned in annoyance as he evaded another missile. Grabbing a headset he set it on his head, "Cease Fire, cease fire, I'm a friendly dammit!" he called out.

'Pilot, please identify yourself or you will be fired upon for flying in restricted airspace." a voice commanded.

"This is Valkyrie One dash six returning from a retrieval op. Request for landing permit." he spoke into the headset.

He waited for several seconds before he heard, "Valkyrie one dash six we copy... you are clear for landing procedures come in at landing space two-two-four-niner. Venture-Star will guide you there." a voice from one of the intercoms told the blonde.

"Copy Venture-Star I will follow your lead to landing space two-two-four-niner. Let's get ready to burn." the blond replied to the control tower.

"Roger that." the control tower replied. With that the Whispercraft harshly spun around to follow the fighter jet. Fifteen minutes later Naruto flipped the control that turned the jet like chopper into a full on helicopter, Naruto guided the bird down for landing where he was told too. Shutting the engines down, Naruto climbed out and stretched. Six hours of flight had better be worth nearly starting a war for stealing a prototype aircraft from the Japanese military projects. A man in green fatigues walked up with a grin on his face, "Great job Uzumaki, I'm sure the tech guys will love studying this thing and reproducing them at a later time." the man said.

"Major Winston, I assume you have my payment?" he asked the man.

"Of course. Two-hundred million in american gold as promised." he said as several men wheeled in large carts filled with gold bars and armed escorts surrounding them.

"Glad for the business, if you need anything else, you know how to contact me." he said walking over to another aircraft, "Load the gold onto the plane. I have a long flight ahead of me." he told them. He then looked to Winston, "Check for tracking devices, I'm not sure if the Japanese are paranoid or not, but if they find this plane here war is no doubt going to break out." he said.

And he couldn't have that happen, quite yet.

"Roger that." Winston said before snapping his fingers and barking out the order.

"Where you going?" a young man asked.

"That's my business kid. Your job is to follow Winston's orders, and right now he follows mine, so technically you listen to me. Now, load the gold onto the plane." he said pointing to a large cargo plane outside the hangar. With his order given, Naruto went into a small camper that had been prepared in advance. Taking off his shirt he threw it on the floor and proceeded to strip. He needed a shower, the smell of his body odor was starting to get to him. Quickly showering he changed into a pair of tan khaki pants with multiple pockets and a white wife beater under a grey shirt. He need not worry about cleaning his wounds, they were already healed.

Putting a fresh pair of socks on he then put on a new pair of shoes and left the small camper. Walking over to the large cargo plane he climbed into the pilots seat and put the headset on once more. However, he was stopped when a female voice spoke up from behind him, "Ok bud, I don't think you know how things are run here, but usually you have to be licensed and work for the American Air Force in order to fly one of these." she said.

Naruto didn't turn around and instead strapped himself into the seat, "I'm a military consultant and special operations member, I have flown these things more than you sweetheart. Trust me, where I'm going you'll think it's comparable to a nightmare." he told her as he adjusted the belts a bit.

"Well do you have proof?" she demanded.

"Yea, your president." he told her before pointing behind him, "Now if you would be as so kind as to get off this aircraft I have to be wheels up in five and I'm not to keen on taking passengers." he commanded her.

"No can do." she said as she pulled a pistol out and aimed it at him, "I don't see fatigues or anything of the like and your lack of cooperation means you are a enemy of the base." she said cocking the pistol.

"Listen, the last thing you wanna try to do is aim that pistol at me. The last time someone pulled a gun on me they lost a hand and their career. I would advise you to lower your hand now." he told her.

"Not until I have my proof." she told him.

"What's your name soldier?" he asked.

"Roman, Colonel Roman. That's all you'll get." she said to him.

"Well Colonel I'm sure you saw that strange aircraft fly in to the base right, that was me." Naruto pointed out, "Now, I know you are an intelligent person, what with you holding your rank and all, but shooting me, isn't what you wanna try and pull right now. So, do yourself a favor, get off my plane, and go about your day as if this didn't happen and we can all go on with our lives." Naruto told her flipping more switches.

"No, you're coming with me." she told him, "Get out of your seat, put your hands on your head, and walk off this plane." she commanded him.

"Your funeral." Naruto shrugged, "Just don't complain to me when you lose your job." he told her as he flipped one last switch.

Doing as she said Naruto got up out of his seat and did as she ordered. She roughly grabbed him by the back of his shirt and marched him off the plane, however, what she didn't expect was for a full unit of MP's to be standing outside pointing their guns at the both of them. She, thinking they were there for Naruto marched him towards them, "Don't worry guys, I got this one." she said.

"Actually ma'am, we're not here for him." one of the MP's said to her.

"Well who are you here for?" she asked, only to stop as Naruto began to laugh.

Lowering his hands he turned to her, "I'll give you three guesses, but I'm sure you'll only need one Colonel. And I'll tell you now, they aren't here for me." he told her.

"What..." she muttered in confusion.

"Colonel Roman, you're under arrest for harassing the president's main asset of foreign operations. Please, don't resist and you might just get off with a court martial." a MP officer said walking up with cuffs in hand.

"No no no, this isn't right. He needs the proper paperwork in order to take our aircraft." she said in shock.

"Your president makes sure I have any and all forms of equipment for me to operate. The fact you ignored the bars of gold in the cargo hold shows me you never once set foot in a combat zone or have ever heard of my job title. Your base general's know about me and my existence. The fact that only certain officer's know of me means my existence is classified beyond your clearance level. Next time you think of harassing someone, make sure it isn't the information broker." he told her as he looked to the MP, "Make sure you guys give her the boot. I don't want her to operate in any military for the remainder of her days." he told them as the former Colonel was cuffed and dragged away kicking and screaming about proper protocols being followed.

And with that, the MP's soon departed and Naruto once more returned to the cockpit. Firing the plane up Naruto pulled forward and out to the runway, "Control this is Papa Dragon, requesting take off." he spoke into the headset.

"Papa Dragon you are clear for take off. God Speed." the control tower said a few moments later.

Thrusting the control lever forward the plane jettisoned down the runway where it quickly gained speed. Pulling back, Naruto soon rose up off the ground, "Thanks guys, See you all on the other side." he said.

'Copy that. Armed Escort is two minutes out. They'll lead you to the next air zone border.' the tower spoke.

"Copy, I see them on the horizon." he responded, "Moving to intercept." he stated as he turned the controls. The large aircraft groaned as it began to lean heavily to the left. The weight of the gold making it difficult to turn. The sound of jet engines flying close soon filled his ears as he watched the squadron of 4 F-22 bombers circle around, "Target destination is several hundred good miles away, hope you boys are ready fro the long haul." Naruto said to the group.

"We're ready to fly as long as it takes. Squadron Leader Hellion will take front. Leviathan take the right, Boomer on the left and Tyrant will follow behind." the pilot on his right said and the planes soon moved to position.


After flying for who knows how man hours, Naruto had finally lost his escort. Currently flying over the Sahara desert, Naruto kept a eye out for where he was supposed to land. He had contacts he was supposed to meet up with to sell the gold on the black market. He'd be making nearly twice as much as he had gained with the gold through selling it here. Gold was a commodity that the people practically worshipped. However, he needed cash, not gold. Suddenly a flare shot into the sky and he once more turned the large aircraft with a moan of protest from the plane.

Pulling several switches in the opposing direction, a beeping noise was heard as the landing gears were lowered from their positions. Leveling the plane out, Naruto pulled back heavily on both the speed and on the controls. Seeing the blacktop laid out before him, Naruto eased the large aircraft down where it slammed into the hard dirt and slowed down to a stop. Turning the aircraft around he moved it off the runway and powered it down. Climbing out of the cockpit, he lowered the cargo bay ramp and saw a contingency of soldiers waiting for him, "Easy fella's, you don't wanna shoot the guy that's giving you pure gold here." he said walking up to a man in military fatigues.

"Mr Uzumaki I presume?" the man said eyeing the blond contemplatively.

"Hephziva Dhrothki?" Naruto asked before the two men grinned widely and laughed, "Ah, it's good to see you my old friend." he said grasping the mans forearm and then brought him into a bro-hug.

"You are looking well, a information broker for countless countries and one of the most influential men alive. It has been ten years or so since we last met face to face, and back then my forces were nothing but common thugs until you taught us the art of war." Hephziva smiled.

"Well information allows you to control people." Naruto shrugged his shoulders, "Dig up the right intel and then you control everything. One mans hidden agenda is another mans knife to the back or something like that. You wouldn't believe the stuff I have on most politicians in america. Pelosi is a greedy woman that is working alongside the president for china and is profiting off the fighting in Iraq. Hillary Clinton committed treason to cover up Bin Laden's still being alive. Joe Biden's son is sleeping with his own cousin and selling military components to Russia. It's all one big cluster fuck and it only gets worse with the higher officials." Naruto smirked. (1)

"As I said years ago, you should work for us, we could use your intelligence force. We would not lose any battles or men, but regardless you still save many lives here in the Congo with what you give us, even if it is a ridiculous figure. I make more money off the information you give to me than the stuff you sell me. But business is business and we do what we can to get by." Hephziva stated.

"Well, not gonna lie, but when you have nearly the entire world in your back pocket, you could almost feel invincible." Naruto smirked.

"I would see that, but that alone deters me from doing anything." Hephziva said.

"You still looking for information of Placktha or did you find what you were looking for?"

"No, to many of my spies fail and I end up receiving a head in a box in return. Have you found anything on him?" Hephziva asked.

"I found what you need, and you're gonna love this." Naruto said pulling a slip of paper out of his pocket, "Make sure you read it when you're alone though. You might have spies in your ranks, and you can't afford another repeat of last time I visited." he said.

"Yes, it took me some time, but I now look deeply into the history of every man that enters my ranks. There hasn't been a enemy spy in over four years. I would like to keep it that way for as long as possible." Hephziva stated.

"Well, as much as I like reminiscing of the old days, I have what you want. Two-hundred million in American Gold." he said to the dark skinned warrior.

"Ah yes, the gold in which will supply much of my war against the tyrannical monster who calls himself my king." Hephziva said as he walked up the ramp with Naruto. Picking up the gold bar in the closest basket he looked on the insignia, "It is genuine gold of the American Federal Reserve. Very hard to come by, and very expensive. You say you got two hundred million, but I am easily seeing over twice that. You wish for something in exchange?" Hephziva asked him.

"Nothing really. Just call it a IOU in the future if things hit the fan. Sell whatever you can on the black market and give me a cut of the profit. Until then do what you want with it." Naruto shrugged.

"How much of the profit would it take to make it even. I am willing to give you thirty percent, much more than what you said originally. This gold is easily that number, but if I sell it to the right people I would get twelve million." Hephziva said.

"That would mean I'd get four hundred million regardless. I will still take it, but I want a favor from you in the future if I need one like I said." Naruto said as he leaned against the wall of the pane.

"Not quite a deal. I want something more." Hephziva said.

"Oh, and that would be what exactly?" Naruto grinned.

"I need help with something." Hephziva stated, "Several of my most loyal men have been captured by Placktha and sent to a prison I cannot retrieve them from. I want you to free them and bring them back to me, alive, and then I will owe you a favor." he told Naruto.

"Well depends on where this prison is. Technically I'm also being hunted by bounty hunters myself. Being paid by the Japanese to check the max security pens does cost a lot of money and seeing as this favor from you is such a big one, it all has to fit in line with my schedule." Naruto said as he crossed his arms.

Hephziva nodded his head, "I assumed as much. You like playing the bad guy just so you can always have the last laugh. However, this prison is a one of a kind. One in which the men do not ever see the light of the day. A prison they call the Maw of Tartarus. You might know it as something else though. It is supposed to be a prison that is underground, and no man ever leaves once he enters." Hephziva said.

Naruto grinned, "What a coincidence. The Tartarus Pit is the exact location I'm going." Naruto grinned, "How soon do you want them back?" Naruto asked.

"Are you prepared to be captured in enemy territory as a spy?" Hephziva smirked in return.

"Now how the hell did I know you were gonna say that." Naruto said to himself.

"You didn't, you just wanted to say that." Hephziva smirked.

"True." Naruto said pointing to the man.

"So, want to hear my plan?" Hephziva said.

"Lay it on me." Naruto smirked.

"As you know, Placktha is religious fanatic. Anyone that doesn't convert from their ways... be it Christianity, Islamic, Muslim, Jewish, all who don't convert to his faith, dies. I want you to be in his next culling, and I want you to be taken to his base and kill him. This will of course mean you are going to the heart of his city where he brings all his converts, so you have to fight for yourself once you kill the big guy. after that, you are on your own." Hephziva said.

"And here I thought you were going to give me a challenge." Naruto smirked.

"Another thing, something a bit personal, I want to ask." Hephziva said as he led Naruto down from the cargo ramp.

"What is it Hephziva? You know you can ask me anything and I'll do my best to help you out." Naruto said.

"Can I have this big plane?" he asked pointing to the aircraft.

"Sure, do with it as you wish. I only took it from the american forces to transport the gold. I have no use for something like this when I have other means of transportation." Naruto shrugged.

"Thank you. This will definitely help me with my final battle plan. I now owe you two favors, and all it cost me was a bit of money and escape of prison." Hephziva laughed.

"A bit more than that, but essentially." Naruto said.

"The next train that leads to Placktha's city should be passing through in three hours. Your gonna need to be quick if you wish to get on. I will have arranged transport for you to get on it in a few minutes. Please, do not let our war here be in vain." the man pleaded.

"If and when I do kill this man, their ranks will do one of two things. First is it will collapse due to in-fighting for leadership, or it will choose a new candidate that will lead them on in this fanatics place and the war will continue. Regardless people are gonna die." Naruto pointed out.

"Actually, there is one man that these cultists respect just as much as that bloodthirsty warmonger. A man by the name of Korso, I do not know his full name, but he is supposed to be a honorable man much like you are. Put him in charge, and we might have a chance at peace here." Hephziva said.

XxX

The dune buggy roared as it charged across the scorching sand. Naruto stood on top of the roll cage as the driver jumped another dune. He watched as a trail of smoke trailed across the sky, they were almost upon it. Naruto looked down, "I hope your boys are ready, cuz once I'm in there will be a couple windows for them to sneak in and free the prisoners. Remember, there is only one shot to get it right. If not everyone single one of them hostages die." Naruto shouted down.

Hephziva looked up from the passenger seat with a grin, "That is why I count on you to kill that fatherless dog before it all goes to hell. God has paved a way, and we will take that road." he shouted back.

"Train spotted right ahead!" the driver shouted up to Naruto.

"Get me close to the prisoner's cart. I have to be with them." he said.

"Which one, there are so many!?" Hephziva shouted.

"Any one of them, they all get seen at the same time!" Naruto called out.

"The middle, go for the middle one. There are no guards on top of it." Hephziva pointed to his driver.

Jerking the wheel, Naruto had to grab onto the front of the roll cage before he fell off, "Easy man, you almost threw me off!" he shouted.

"Didn't you see the tracks? Tell me, do you want to yell at me or do you want to make train?" the driver shouted back.

"Just drive." Hephziva said.

Pushing his foot down, the driver sped up and pulled alongside the middle cart, "Here is good. I should have enough time to enter the train cart and immerse myself in the numbers. You two need to get out of here as fast as you can. The guards are already on their way. I can handle things from here." he said.

"May God protect you my friend." Hephziva said.

"I'll see you when I get your men back Hephziva. Make sure you stay alive long enough to say hello to the family." Naruto grinned.

"I will, once you free them from their captivity." Hephziva responded.

Jumping off the buggy and onto the train, Naruto pulled out a knife and sliced the lock off and pushed the door open and entered. He watched as the captives pleaded for them to free them, but he couldn't do that just yet. Closing the door, he pulled the keys off the wall and walked to a cage and unlocked it and entered before the captive inside could walk out, and then locked it back. Tossing the keys he smirked as they landed on the hook he had retrieved them from. The captive inside was a elderly man, who gave Naruto a dumbfounded look, "Great now we are all trapped once again. Was your plan always to be converted to idiocy?" he asked.

"No, Hephziva came up with the plan. I have to see it through to the end. Be patient, it'll all be over soon." Naruto responded as the train rocked a bit.

"God help us." the elder sighed out.


The train pulls up to a platform and comes to a stop. The sides of the cart then lower behind each cage to show that they could get off the train. However, behind them are ranks of arms soldiers pointing their guns at them. Naruto groans in annoyance as they begun grabbing and pulling at the hostages, prodding them with guns to get them to comply. Naruto walks calmly in the swathe of scared captives as they are brought into a large clearing in what appeared to be a old amphitheater, guards easily seen surrounding the upper levels, guns pointed at them. The hostages all mutter in fright at what is about to happen.

However, that muttering comes to a halt when a new door opens and a squadron enters, surrounding a solitary man. The man smirks as he looks around to all his new... acolytes. From behind, a man dressed in what appeared to be a holy apparel walked up the steps to a raised dais, his voice reaching everyone's ears, "In this world, life is antagonistic to the natural state." he stated, "Here, people and all their various faiths, are a spontaneous outbreak... A pandemic that must be rectified." he told them. He looked over the crowd gathered before him, "A unguided mistake, a purpose in which it is our job, to fix that mistake." he told them.

Wow, this guy was really trying to sell this cockeyed bullshit. No wonder Hephziva was fighting so damn hard.

"If this world is the cause of such a pandemic, we will lead you to another. A world in which everyone is equal, no hatred, no agony, no pain or suffering. A world where life is welcomed, and cherished." he told them, "A ravaging and ever-new place." he said turning around, "Called, Xibalba." he told the captives where they began muttering in confusion. Turning once again the man continued his spiel, "But the road to Xibalba, is where you need to cross over the threshold." he said when all of a sudden the surrounding soldiers cried out in unison.

"Threshold! Take us to the threshold!"

And then, big baddie himself smirked, "What you call, death." he said as more guards entered the amphitheater

"It is this world that must be cleansed of such an impurity so that Xibalba may be populated so that it may prosper!"

Placktha spoke up as he climbed up next to his wannabe holy man, "Look around you. Every soldier here, every single one of them in this hall, each one of the legion vast that swept you up and took you in when nobody else would shelter you, was also once like you." he told them, "Fought beside their precious 'God' as feebly as you." he stated as he glanced over the crowd, "Every single one of them, is a convert." he finished.

"There'll be no conversions!" a woman shouted in denial which caused a uproar of denials from the remaining captives.

"We all began as something else." the preacher... or whatever he was, stated loudly. He looked around pleadingly, "It was hard for me to accept to when I first heard these words." he told them, "But I changed. I let them take away my pain, so that I could ease such a burden on others." he told them.

"You betrayed your faith." a man stated.

"Just as you will change." the advertiser-wannabe-salesman added ignoring the jabs at his lack of faith, "When you realize that the threshold to Xibalba will be crossed only by those who have embraced the way of the Popol Vuh faith. For those of you right now, will drop to your knees and ask to be purified." he told them.

"We will not renounce our faith." a man called out.

"No one here will do as you ask. It is unthinkable." a tall man shouted out causing others to quieten down as he stepped forward, "This is a world of many people, of many cultures and religions." he told the holy man trying to convert them, "And we simply cannot, and will not, be converted!" he shouted.

Placktha walked up to the man and pulled out a dagger, "Then you are of no use to me." he said before driving it into the mans skull. As the mans body dropped to the ground in front of the appalled Christians and Muslims, the evil warlord spoke up, "Either join him, or join me." he commanded.

It was this ultimatum that caused everyone to slowly, bend the knee to a unwanted faith. However, one man refused to bow. A guard, seeing this, walked over to him. This man was obviously not a native to the country and seemed more like those pesky Americans. His blond hair shined like gold in the light, and he couldn't see his eyes so he couldn't tell who they were gazing at. Speaking up, he drew the blondes attention, "This is your one chance. Take the saviors offer and bow." he commanded.

Naruto looked at the soldier and simply replied, "I bow to no man." with a very calm voice.

XxX

Hephziva and his entire army surrounded the camp, waiting for the signal. A small drone hovered in the air capturing the moment on camera in sending a live feed to him, "Any moment now, we simply need to wait for the signal. We take these guards out from behind while they are distracted and we strike here, here and here at their main munitions and cut them off from their supplies, we win. We will take heavy losses, but if it ends this war and saves our families we will do as we must. God is with us." he said to his men.

"God is with us." the silent echo rebounded through his ranks.

XxX

Hearing the response was not what he wanted, the soldier stepped up into Naruto's personal space, "He is not a man. He is a prophesied savior sent to this realm by the Death God himself. One given to this world by the rulers of Xibalba themselves." he responded.

BULLSHIT!

Naruto however, was nonchalant about the soldiers response, "Look I'm not with everyone here." he said before pointing to two people, "But will take a piece of him, as well as your so called savior." he stated as he looked to a man holding up two axes.

The soldier nodded, "And a piece of them both you shall have." the man said as he walked away.

The wanna be executioner walked up and got into a stance. Swinging a ax at him, Naruto leaned back avoiding decapitation where the gathered crowd of Christians and Muslims gasped in shock. Another swing and Naruto dodged to the left, a third and he spun to the right as the axeman swung down at him. However, this allowed Naruto to get behind him and remove a dagger from the mans back as the man trying to kill him raised up swinging. Ducking under the swing, Naruto spun around and embedded the knife into the mans gut with a grunt. Another grunt escaped his lips as he stabbed again and again before he ripped the knife out and shoved it into the mans skull.

The man stood for all but a few seconds before he fell back and down the stairs and stopped to land at the feet of their so called savior.

"Ir-gun, one of my best." Placktha said in observation.

Naruto snorted in amusement, "If you say so." he responded.

"I believe you issued a challenge to me yes, to prove your worth." Placktha said.

"No, I'm just the guy Hephziva hired to kill you while he and his entire army surrounded you to finish off the lot of you." Naruto grinned as Placktha's condescending smirk fell and the sound of gunfire filled the air. Before Placktha could blink, Naruto had spun around and kicked the man in the face hard enough to cause him to stumble. Jumping up Naruto smashed a foot into the mans chest and caused him to fall to his back. Landing, Naruto pulled the blade out of his dead adversary and leapt into the air and threw the blade with pinpoint accuracy. Placktha didn't have the chance to roll out of the way as the blade was quickly embedded into his skull in between his eyes.

"He did not know who he was fucking with." Naruto growled as he landed.

The crowd of unarmed captives hunkered to the ground as the shootout continued to rage. Suddenly a body dropped down next to him while another called out to him, "My friend you must leave immediately, enemy forces are converging on this location and we will be overwhelmed if we do not flee right away." where Naruto smirked as he turned to see Hephziva, "You must be quick, before the soldiers regain their cognition." he told them.

"What, and miss the reunion of families?" he asked.

"Apparently they were led here by a bounty hunter." Hephziva revealed.

"All according to plan." Naruto said.

"Indeed, now you must go, we will take the captives and withdraw with what we have. Hurry." Hephziva said to him.

XxX

Naruto leapt up over a burning car and landed on his feet to continue his run. He needed to be as far as possible so he could continue with Hephziva's plan to save his men. Already engaged in a hard battle it was simple for him to pass by a small opening of fights. However, he didn't expect for these guys to have air support. The helicopter chasing him relentlessly. However, before a missile could be fired at him from a RPG, the helicopter suddenly exploded above him, causing Naruto to come to a halt as it soared over his head and crashed nose first into the ground where it flipped over and crashed into the train with a ground shaking explosion.

Naruto smirked as he stood up, five hooded figures quickly surrounding him. Turning to gaze at them he snorted, "Let me guess, a five-man crew this time?" he asked.

"A couple of things you could have done better." Kiba's voice told him as he walked up to Naruto, "First, check yourself for a nano-tech tracker powder that the Japanese government gave to me to ensure I captured your ass for stealing their tech. Second, trash the locator beacon in the aircraft before you went to the Americans and handed them the Whispercraft, the one you jacked. Thirdly, and this is really more important part... suck my dick when you get the chance." he grinned out, "Now, any questions?" he asked Naruto.

"Yeah." Naruto said in response as he held his arms up, "What took you so long?" he asked in response.

Kiba turned to a partner of his and motioned towards Naruto. Walking up the blond could see that it was a woman, a very beautiful woman. She pulled out a couple of restraints and slapped them onto his wrists, "Come on big boy, time to go." she told him with her own grin.


And that is going to be a wrap. Please LIKE/FAVORITE/FOLLOW to show the story some love and please do not forget to COMMENT/REVIEW to show me you read this chapter and enjoyed it.

1: I made this all up as a way to progress the story. I have no clue if this is real or not (in real life that is) so before anyone goes and yells at me, please know that I am not bringing Politics into this story. I shall continue to keep these chapters politic free.


Chapter 7

Now someone asked if this was the same Kiba as Shippuden and the answer is no, I just used a random name to give a character I would rather not call Toombs from the movie.


Naruto grunted in annoyance as he was put in a chair and chained down like a animal. These kids wouldn't know the meaning of restraint if it bit them in the ass. Kiba turned around as the plane flew through the air with a smirk, "So, where to we drop your fancy little treasonous ass?" he asked him.

"Believe it or not, I have no one country. I hold citizenship in every continent and country on this world. So technically you could drop me off just about anywhere." Naruto smirked.

Kiba nodded in acceptance, "That's right, I forget your some hot-shot information broker. Supposed to be one of the best around." Kiba said, "Would you like to give any suggestions then, Mr. Broker?" he asked, "It makes me curious on just who would pay the most for you. Hakiem Bay?" he asked.

"Hakiem Bay." Naruto said with a seemingly wide grin of nostalgia, "Ten minutes every other day on the dog run. Hash-browns aren't to bad, though they might be a little raw." Naruto remarked.

"Well why not The Luna Muerta? A nice little double max prison." Kiba said as he lit a cigarette.

"The prison which floats. A ship that none have ever seen the deck of. They keep a cell open for me, just in case I drop in." Naruto remarked.

Kiba nodded his head, "See, that's the problem with these places now. It's like a home away from home. A bed and breakfast hotel for sleazebags like him. Too hospitable for the inmates." he stated, "Maybe we should think about upping our game here a little." he said turning to a new lackey, "Think about a place that's truly diabolical." he said to himself as he turned to his prisoner.

"Oh what the hell is he thinking now?' the sole female asked herself.

"He's thinking of a triple max level prison. A no daylight slam built underground." Naruto spoke up, "Only one in the entire world like it. Built back in the early twenties when the world had just calmed down from the first World War. It was agreed by all countries that only the worst of the worst get sent there. If the person held to many state secrets but the system couldn't afford to lose the intel, they sent them there. A way to ensure that no nasty little secrets could be spilled if they were gonna execute the prisoner beforehand and they decided to blab out secrets they know they shouldn't on their deathbed. The biggest contingency plan ever built." Naruto remarked calmly.

"It's on a island much like Alcatraz, and just in case one of the prisoners manage to get out of the hole, they have no way to get off. The guards change once a week to ensure no inmates ever escape through the only exit located in the center of all the action. Twelve guard towers surround the edge of the island, eight in the middle where the exit is dug out, enough spotlights to illuminate the island when the night comes around. No known blind spots to get to, and twenty foot tall electric fences that shoot up to thirty thousand volts. Walls of concrete buried twelve feet under and stand at fifteen feet tall above ground with a thickness of three feet to ensure no tunneling or climbing can be done in a short period of time." Naruto said.

"The guards are armed with state of the art weapons that get exchanged each time something new hits the assembly line. Sixty guards total on the outside, three per tower to ensure that the escapee doesn't get very far." Naruto grinned, "In the past seventy-five years, there has only been one escapee in its history that has left the island alive, and even now the world doesn't know who it is." Naruto told them, "Known as Isla Muerta, The Isle of the Dead, to the local prisoners. It is the hardest prison to get thrown into, but known as the Tartarus Pit by everyone else who hears of it." he tells them.

"Now however, it's run by that psychopathic Hiroto Minaka of M.B.I as he bought the prison for some of his own personal... interests. It now holds the most damned men on the planet as well as Minaka's own unwanted thorns." he told them before smirking broadly, "That is what you had in mind, right Kiba?" he asked.

"Hey, how does he know where we're going and we don't?" a dark skinned man asked Kiba.

"Just ignore him." Kiba said while his pilot shook his head.

"I already hate this run." he said kissing a cross on his neck.

"Just do it." Kiba said.

Naruto shook his head, "I don't know about this new crew of yours. They seem a bit skittish." he said to Kiba, "Probably shouldn't tell them what happened to the last crew." he stated earning nervous looks from the crew.

Kiba only smirked as he walked up to the blond, "You know, you're supposed to be some slick-shit information broker. A hot-shot killer, and a unbeatable machine." he said inhaling more nicotine, "But now looks at you, all back of the bus." he remarked as he exhaled the smoke in Naruto's face.

XxX

That night, as the plane flew on autopilot the sole female on the bounty hunter crew gasped as she woke with a start. Looking around she saw that everyone was asleep, including Naruto. It was silent as the dead, something that she was hoping for. She had been curious as to why her shared bounty wore dark goggles, but she didn't have the chance to see why as all they guys were debating on the prison. Climbing out of her seat as silently as she could, she then made her way over to the prisoner and crouched low enough to sensually slide up the blonde's body, inhaling his scent.

Waiting a moment as Kiba adjusted himself, she turned to the blonde and waved a hand over his face a couple times before slowly lifting his goggles. What she didn't expect was for him to suddenly snap his eyes open, startling her something fierce. She gasped as she jumped off of him, only to be stopped as Naruto caught her leg in between his own. Naruto looked at her calmly as she tried to get out of his grip, "You know you grind your teeth while you sleep." he said factually, "Very sexy." he told her before he let her go so she could return to her seat.

XxX

The plane groaned as the pilot twisted it around. The blacktop soaring by under them as they arrived. Kiba swallowed some liquor and sighed, "If I owned this place and hell. I'd rent this place out, and live in hell." he stated.

The reason that Kiba had said this, was because the island was nothing but sand. There was no sign of green at all. The island was as dead as it could be.

"We're coming in!" the pilot called out.

The landing wasn't good by any means and the pilot had nearly killed them all. Naruto shook his head to clear it of the cobwebs of hitting his head on apiece of metal, "Skittish Kiba, very skittish. Where'd you find this pilot of yours, a drop out pilot school?" he asked.

"He was cheap and only wanted a sixteen percent cut of your ass." Kiba groaned.

Binding him in chains they led him down the corridor and he saw a sleek sled. Laying down as ordered they chained him to the sled and each took a seat, one of the mercenaries on him. Said merc looked down on him and mockingly asked, "Comfy?" while Kiba pushed a speed lever forward to get the sled moving. Naruto simply ignored him as the sled sparked against the tracks as it went down a hill and around a corner while picking up speed. The bounty hunter sitting on him leaned down and leered at Naruto, "When the rides over, your goggles are mine." he said rubbing the said item like a totem.

Apparently this one took trophies from his bounties. He'd take care of that.

He had been counting the distance ever since the sled had started to move, he lightly tapped his foot as overhead lights shot past, timing the seconds as each light clocked into his head. And suddenly, he shoved his hips up and launched the man off his gut and smashed his face into the next light, snapping his neck as he cried out in shock from being thrown into the air.

He was dead before he hit the ground.

Of course this made the others turn around to see what had happened, only to see one of their own not their anymore. Naruto seeing them turn only shrugged eliciting a laugh out of Kiba, "A four way split!" he said howling in laughter.

However the ride soon came to an end when the sled slammed to a stop. Naruto looked around slowly as he counted the distance out to himself, "Twenty-nine point four kilometres." he whispered out.

Pulling him up they buzzed the doors open and saw four people standing at attention pointing guns, a beautiful long silver haired woman in a gray uniform with a sword on her hip stepped forward, "So this is the new guy huh, what a surprise. We hardly get anyone these days it makes the job seem so boring." she said.

"Misses Karasuba, I assume you are ready to take him in?" Kiba asked.

"But of course, let's talk business shall we." she said as she led all of them inside.

Pulling a metal cover open, Naruto found himself tied to a rope that was strung through his cuffs and then put over the very hole they had opened. However before they could lower him down, shit had to happen to stop it all.

Suddenly heads turned as a phone began to ring.

Benitsubasa groaned in annoyance, "Oh what does that idiot want now?" she growled.

"That the only phone on this hunk of sand?" Kiba asked.

"It's one programmed specifically to our boss. He only calls it when he has something he wants to tell us." Yume said rolling her eyes and turning to Haihane, "Answer it." she ordered Haihane.

The white haired woman shrugged and picked the phone up, "Yea, what is it?" she asked in boredom. Listening in for a couple minutes Haihane felt her brow raise before she held it out to Yume, "He wants to speak with you." she said.

Yume sighed as she took the phone, "Yume here, what is it?" she asked.

'Put the prisoner that was just brought in on the phone. We have business to discuss.' Minaka's voice told her.

"Whatever. You're the boss." she said before turning to Karasuba, "Hold him up, Minaka wants to speak with him for some ungodly reason." she said.

"With who?" Kiba asked only to be pushed out of the way where Benitsubasa yanked on Naruto's head while it was in the opening.

"Change your mind or something?" he asked calmly.

"No, someone wants to speak with you." Yume said before putting the phone to his ear.

Shrugging he accepted the call, "Speak, you have thirty seconds." he commanded.

"The balls on this guy." Benitsubasa whispered in shock.

"No kidding. Talking to Minaka like that, it usually ends up as a prison sentence here or dead." Haihane agreed.

"I just wanted to call up and say congratulations are in order Mr Uzumaki." Minaka told him.

"Congratulations on what exactly. I didn't win anything as of recent, and I don't recall doing anything bad-ass that won me an award of any sort. If I won the lottery, then I could understand, but knowing you, this isn't a social call." he said calmly, ignoring the confused looks of the others.

'Oh, I didn't say what I was congratulating you for, my bad. I meant congratulations on becoming a future father. We have detected a raised hormonal level in Sekirei #11 or possibly Sekirei #12 I believe. Meaning that one of the twins has apparently gotten themselves pregnant. Not sure how to feel honestly. Happy that you are helping repopulate a critically endangered race or sad that you have nearly ruined the purpose of the game. I hope you're ready for diaper duty when the time comes.' Minaka said before the line went dead.

"Lower me down. We have nothing more to discuss." he said before turning around as best he could while dangling from a rope, "Make sure your boss knows that if anything happens while I'm here, his life is forfeit along with all of those living inside the region of Shinto Teito when I get out of here." he told the four Sekirei, "And I'll start with Hiroto Minaka himself." he said before Kiba lowered the lever and spit down the hole, missing Naruto much to his annoyance.

Kiba sighed as he turned to the women, "Now, I have been told that this assholes head, if brought in alive, is worth One point Five Million. Would you pay me and my crew so we could kindly get the fuck out of here." he said.

"Yea, sorry to say this, but that much money for one guy, even if it's for him, isn't worth the salt we put on the table. At most he's seven hundred thousand." Benitsubasa stated crossing her arms and shaking her head.

Ignoring the idiots above talking, Naruto simply looked down as he was being lowered into the deep cavernous hole. The prisoners inside were mostly elderly men and women (Surprising enough) that had been there since the last war. However there were a lot of young down as well. Suddenly Naruto felt himself jerk to a stop. Inside the control room Kiba snorted in amused fashion as he stopped the lowering process, "What in the name of Christ are you talking about? Seven-hundred thousand my ass." he stated in annoyance.

"Now now, there is a reason it is like this." Karasuba said leaning back in her chair.

Benitsubasa shook her head, "I wouldn't take this one Karasuba. Seems like a bad idea." the redhead stated.

Karasuba smirked as she stood up, "Benitsubasa, let's not count their idea's and thoughts out yet. They are working after all." she said walking past her before turning to two other women in similar uniforms as her, "Yume, Haihane, what are your thoughts?" she asked them.

"Bad idea, this one reeks of trouble." Haihane said yawning in boredom.

"It doesn't seem right to me to be honest. Smells kinda fishy with how they brought him in the way they did." Yume added.

Karasuba nodded her head as she stood up, "See, my associates have a bit of a nose for trouble, each of them knowing how the system works like the back of their hand. We don't usually do something like this as most the prisoners are so old. The one you brought us is in his twenties. Something we don't usually do is take in one so young. So the amount I'm offering is good money." she said as she walked over and pulled the lever back up to lower Naruto down once again.

Down inside the hole, Naruto looked back up and called out, "I'd take the money while you still can." he said as he felt himself move down. As he continued to lower, the inmates began to bang anything and everything on the rocks and metal rails in a deep beat.

"And why would I want only a cut of my cut, makes no sense." Kiba stated, "I have to pay the crew what I owe them, and I have living expenses I have to pay off as well as other things to do my job. Times are tough and money is hard to come by, especially good money like this." Kiba pointed out.

"The government pays this facility a caretaker fee for each prisoner each year. We pay merc's like you a twenty percent fee based on life expectancy. The younger they are, the more worth they have. The older they are, the less they are worth due to failing health and other commodities for keeping them alive all the while we hold them under our care." Yume explained.

"So what do you expect me to do, let his ass go for nothing, I think not. How's about this. You open the safe you have hidden behind the console there and show me the real books, and then we can figure my cut out. If you don't give me my full pay, and I will have the full amount, things'll get ugly. Either way I get paid, even if it takes me going through your corpses. So open your little notebooks and skim them for the proper amount. Then I'll be on my way." he growled.

"You wouldn't even be able to pull the damn gun out." Karasuba turned serious as she sat in her seat and booted a small piece of steel to shut a compartment to think on his words, "So let me get this right. You want me to open the books? What kind of suggestion is this idiocy? I run this prison as it's supposed to be run, and you come here suggesting I allow you to see classified documentations?" she asked.

"It wasn't a suggestion." Kiba told her as Haihane pulled the lever down once again jostling Naruto.

Suddenly Kiba's face met the steel table and the sound of crunching bone was heard before Karasuba raised the mans head up and slammed it down again ignoring the guns aimed at her, "How dare you suggest I do such a thing! I have half a mind to throw you down the hole without a rope!" she yelled out.

"I think it's best to sit this one out people. Wouldn't wanna cause a scene." Yume said holding two swords up to the humans necks. Haihane held the lone female by the neck.

Kiba grunted as he tried to look up only to wince as Karasuba put more pressure on him, "Maybe that was out of line. I meant, could you, look through the books to see if you could squeeze a bit more out, to ensure my crew is adequately paid for their services?" he groaned out.

Karasuba huffed in annoyance and let the human up. "These are difficult times, as you have said before." she said pulling a couple shot glasses out and a bottle of moonshine, "Africa is in the middle of a war and is dragging China and Russia into its midst with the Americans soon to join in if their love of war is anything to go by. France wishes to stay neutral, but the British are unable to as they are longstanding allies of America and as such will most likely be drawn into the conflict. Big drama with a possible World War III and all that stuff if you believe the talks." she said handing Kiba a half filled double shot.

"A war huh, good money for those looking for certain people." Kiba remarked wiping the blood off his face as he pulled the lever once more stopping his prisoners descent into darkness down below.

Down in the hole, Naruto had gotten tired of being ogled like a piece of fresh meat and the bullshit the guys up top were pulling and decided enough was enough. Pulling himself up partially to where he was hanging upside down and balancing on the end of the rope using his restraints. Without hesitation, he dropped down and performed a quick set of rolls that wound the rope around his waist.

Karasuba sighed as she downed her alcohol and then looked at the idiotic human, "I'll have to rerun the numbers to see if he really is worth the trouble. It takes a couple days probably to see if he is worth the amount you say he is. So that means you can stay here as guests for the time being." she told the group.

Kiba smirked, "I'm giving you a day. Twenty-four hours, and not a minute more. And your timer starts now." he told Karasuba as he poured the alcohol into the hole and then tossed the shot glass back at the silver haired beauty.

Back in the hole, having wound himself up pretty decently, Naruto allowed himself to fall and quickly unroll where upon fully unfurling, the restraints holding him on the rope snapped like plastic and he performed a front flip while he fell to the ground and landed in a crouch. Not even a second after landing, a inmate had rushed him. A elbow to the mans gut caused him to hunch over before Naruto spun the man around and gripped both sides of the mans head and with a quick twist, snapped the mans neck killing him.

As the man he had just killed fell down, Naruto held his hand up and caught another by the throat and slammed him down onto the rocks at his feet and winded him. A stomp to his chest and the man was curled up in agony from a shattered rib cage. A third inmate charged him and Naruto simply punched the man in the middle of the forehead, and watched as he collapsed with a shard of stone protruding from his skull. The sight of his ruthlessness quickly halted all attempted attacks on him and Naruto snorted at each of them.

Before he could walk off though, a elderly man spoke up, "We have inmates, and we have convicts. A convict as a certain code, and he knows to show a certain respect. An inmate on the other hand, pulls the pin on his fellowman." the old timer said.

Ever get the feeling you're standing next to Sam Elliot, that was the feeling he was getting from this grizzled old timer.

The old man simply continued, "This means they do the guards work for them. It brings shame, to the game." he said kicking the barely breathing convict with broken ribs in the head, snapping his neck to end his suffering. Naruto simply lifted his goggles up as the elder asks him, "So, which are you gonna be?" as several others came up behind him.

"Me?" Naruto asked the man, "I'm just passing through." he said lowering his goggles down and walking past the elder and into a cloud of steam where his shadow quickly fades into it.

"They all say that. Welcome to Isla Muerta." he muttered.

"Come on Caretaker, lunch is being prepped and today's cheeseburger sunday. Don't wanna miss out on the good stuff." a young man said.

"Yea, gotta cut a lot of potatoes too for the fries. I'm sure the guards will appreciate our hard work." the elder said.

Hibiki looked at Matsu in shock, "How can I be pregnant, I wasn't on my period Matsu." she said.

"Well it's like this. He fucked you, came inside you, and thus the semen met the egg and-"Matsu began to say only for the younger twin to snap at her, "I know how it happened! I meant, how did it happen so soon in the game. Minaka is gonna flip and send the Discipline Squad after me so they can dissect me for the baby." she said putting a hand on her stomach.

"It's to early for anything like that to happen. You're only a couple weeks into the pregnancy, so we have plenty of time to ready ourselves for a fight." Hikari said.

"Bite me Hikari." her sister said.

"Kinky, want me to do it now?" she asked causing her sister to blush red.

"Pervert!"

"No, that would be me." Matsu said.

XxX

Minaka smirked at the young man in front of him, "So, you know who I am do you, congratulations. Takami and I agreed we wouldn't bring you into the fold, but I guess some things aren't meant to happen." he stated.

"Please, my mother wouldn't know of secrecy if it fucked her in the ass. I admit she is very creative, but she's not that creative." the young man said sitting back in his chair.

"So tell me, how'd you figure it out, that I was your father Minato-kun?" Minaka asked folding his hands in his lap.

"Not that hard. All I had to do is ask the right questions, discreetly of course, and then look into the bullshit she says." Minato said, "Underneath the underneath and all that." he shrugged.

Minaka smirked, "How would you like a job here at M.B.I?" he asked.

"I'm listening."

Minaka smirked.

Naruto huffed as he splashed the surprisingly hot waterfall inside the pit. His goggles hung on a small rock a foot or so away from him. As he finished cleaning himself to the best of his abilities, he reached out and snatched his goggles and then put them back on. As he turned around, Naruto cocked his head when he heard some overhead speakers crank on and a male voice yelled, "FEEDING TIME!" and the prisoners all began to panic and scramble for safety. At the stairs several guards held back large quadrupedal animals and had cattle prongs in hand. As they reached the door, they shocked the animals and pushed them through the door.

As the prisoners ran around looking for shelter, Naruto simply shook his head, wimps. One prisoner in particular must have been a bonified pussy his entire life cuz he cried out, "Here they come!" before taking off in the other direction for safety.

As Naruto walked calmly up the stairs, he watched as the old man, Caretaker he believed was the mans epithet, walked past him and said, "Whatever you do, don't make eye contact." before continuing on his way.

With the animals riled up, several guards took the chance to hang from the rope and lower themselves down to watch the carnage and see which prisoners made it through the culling. Several of the dog-like animals jumped over a steep edge and slid down to find their quarry. The prisoners were quick to find safe haven in some cages and even some pits they covered with rocks to elude the animals. There were some, however, who didn't share in the safety of the cages, as one man soon found himself being torn to shreds by the animals and another soon followed, his screams of terror echoing through the prison.

Naruto himself had hidden behind the waterfall and leaned over carefully as he watched one pass by, and ripped off his goggles to see better. However, he didn't expect for a large head to push through the water to reveal a large grey wolf, a seemingly blind grey wolf. Naruto wasn't scared, he simply leaned into the animals personal space, his own eyes shining in reflection to the beasts own as it growled at him.

Old man Caretaker peeked around the edge of the cliff and had to do a double take. He watched in shock as the new guy was seemingly patting the animal on its thick hide while it panted in satisfaction. A buzzer went off and the wolf turned to leave, but as it did it snapped at the man causing him to jump before it walked off. When he was sure it was gone, he turned to Naruto who simply said, "It's an animal thing." before he stood up and walked off on his own.

A distance away Sekirei #88 Musubi held her hands up in surrender as she backed up towards the wall, the guards holding her at gunpoint. One of the guards nodded his head towards her, "Check her, she's always got something up her sleeves." as he pointed a light at her while a third held a gun up towards her.

Nervously, the second guard spread her feet as protocol said too. None to gently he prodded at her arms in nervousness before he moved on to her sides and hips, and needless to say she wasn't pleased by the sexual feeling of it, at all. That was when he begun to feel up her ass, and was slowly beginning to wander towards her crotch. Needless to say, it didn't end well for the guard as she mule kicked him away as he howled in pain. a kick to the guards temple and he was sent tumbling into the wall. Wrapping her legs around his neck she gave a quick twist and he collapsed to the ground shortly after.

Seeing one of their own in trouble the guards were quick to rush her and soon overwhelmed her. One of the guards had jumped on her back and wrapped his arms around her throat while another smashed his fist into her gut severely winding her. As the guard continued to choke her a calm voice simply stated, "I don't think she likes being touched. Especially if the way your friend over there was literally assaulting her when he knows such actions could have him end up here for life." which caused the guards to turn and see Naruto.

Sipping a unknown liquid from a cup he held he nodded his head towards the man on the ground, "I'd take my wounded a go, while you still can." he said as he sauntered up to the guards calmly.

The guard holding Musubi let her go and she began inhaling deeply. It was bad. A fist-type Sekirei being beaten by mere humans. Fucking Minaka just had to place those limiters on her to make her weak. The guard that had been choking Musubi looked to Naruto in a state of confusion, "Is there a name for this private little world of yours?" he asked the blonde, "What happens there when we don't just run away? You'll kill us, with a soup cup?" he asked rhetorically causing the other guards to snicker in amusement.

"Tea actually." Naruto muttered as he swallowed the rest of the cups contents.

"I'm sorry, what was that?" the guard asked holding a hand to his ear, "I didn't quite catch that." he stated.

"I'll kill you with my teacup." he told them as he held it up with his fingers.

Musubi looked up at this human in both confusion and awe. The sheer balls on this mother-fucker.

Naruto seemingly placed the teacup upside down on a nearby rock and looked on calmly, "So, what's it gonna be?" he asked.

The guard standing next to the one that had been conversing to Naruto smirked and leaned into the mans ear, "You know the rule. They aren't dead if they're still in the books." he said as the other guard nodded his head and began to draw a boey knife out. Sharply turning around the guard charged at Naruto, who only slammed his hand down on the cup he once held, surging a minuscule amount of wind chakra through it and twisting it to serrate the edges and then he thrust his hand forward and slammed the cup into the mans chest with a grunt, and with a twist he watched as the man looked at him in shock before he pushed him away where he fell to the ground twitching a couple times before he died, his knife falling out of his hand.

In less than three seconds Naruto had killed a man with nothing more than a cup. The guards looked at him in shock and raised their pistols at him, "Come on!" the guard urged him. Naruto shrugged and leaned down to pick up a small pin and set it down where the cup once did. The guards hesitated. If he had done in one of them using just a cup, what could he do with the pin? It didn't take them but a second to hustle and grab the wounded guard and make a hasty retreat.

Naruto turned around and nodded his head, "Not bad, even for a heavily limited Sekirei." he said helping Musubi up off the floor, "So, what landed you here?" he askedd as he used the pin to pick his cuff locks and drop them to the floor, "I mean, a Sekirei ending up here of all places and not dead or witha Ashikabi, must be pretty serious if Minaka sent you down here to die." he said.

Musubi snorted as she rubbed her chest a little, "I tried to kill Minaka. He wanted me to be a part of the cities Discipline Suad and nearly had me forcefully winged to some gay asshole named Natsuo. He tried to force me and so I killed him and then after Minaka. When I was subdued by the four harlots up top, they sent me here after placing hundreds of limiters on me. I'm as weak as a human right now, and when I get out, I'm going to kill him, and then I may just look for my Ashikabi." she shrugged.

Naruto nodded his head, "It's like a forced marriage. While beneficial for one, it's a utter hell for the other. I can understand why you did it. Not many would have had the guts to do what they felt was right." he said.

Musubi shrugged, "So I take it your an Ashikabi yourself or a former employee of that tyrannical ass Minaka." she said to the blond.

"Yea, I'm an Ashikabi. Got five girls at home waiting on me. Even managed to get one pregnant, though it wasn't intentional when it happened." he shrugged in response, "All in all, it's shaping up to be one hell of a experience." he said.

Musubi snorted, "I take it you have a plan of some sort, toget out of here seeing as how you disposed of that guard so easily."she said.

"I always have a plan." he smirked at her, "Just waiting for the right time to get it in motion." he said as he walked past her, "But for right now, I have to find a few associates of a old friend of mine. See if I can talk them into leaving when we do." he said calmly.

"Not bad, for a human." Musubi smirked.
