Rated: M - English - Adventure/Romance - Naruto U. & Hinata H. - Reviews: 255 - Updated: 11-15-09 - Published: 10-10-07 - id:3829330

Note: This chapter's second half causes the story to change to M rating, so be sure you're able to read M rated stories. I will put a warning at the naughty bits, but from now on things will be more serious.

Note, my first story, A Dream Is A Wish, was completed before the Inuyasha anime was finished and long before I saw the third Inuyasha movie. Thus, in this universe the Inu no Taisho, Sesshomaru and Inuyasha's dad, didn't die until after Inuyasha was about 12 to 13. Before their father's death, the two half brothers got along like brothers will, not all the time but enough that they weren't trying to kill each other. But then the Inu no Taisho died protecting Inuyasha's mother and Sesshomaru kicked Inuyasha and her out of the Western Lands. They make up in ADIAW, so read that fully to understand all the characters you'll be introduced to in this chapter. The events of the third movie still happened, but before the events of ADIAW.

"Woah," said Naruto as Inuyasha led his family minus Kimiko, Miroku and Sango's family, and Naruto himself towards a massive castle that was even more magnificent than many of the Daimyo mansions Naruto had seen. Since Naruko's period had ended the day after the battle with Pantyhose Taro, Naruto had gratefully resumed control of his body so they could deliver Nenshousaiga to Tōtōsai. The demon smith had taken one of Naruto's fangs to repair the sword but said it would take several days due to the power originally contained in the blade. Since Naruto had his Hitai-ate on, it was safe for him to leave Nenshousaiga in the smith's capable hands while they went to the castle of Inuyasha's brother. Shippo in particular seemed really excited, something Naruto noticed. "Ne, Shippo-senpai, what's got you so excited?" he asked.

"Nii-san's girlfriend is Uncle Fluffy's daughter Rin-nee-san!" chirped Haruka from her place on Inuyasha's back.

"Haruka, stop teasing your brother or I won't let you play with Jaken," said Inuyasha, which made the young hanyou quiet up. She wanted to get in on the Jaken tortu… play time a lot.

As they reached the gates of the wall surrounding the castle, the two inugami guards in front of the gate snapped to attention and called out, "Open for Inuyasha-sama, his family, and guests!" The giant gates opened, revealing a spacious courtyard with many beautiful trees, statues, and fountains decorating it. As guards hurried to inform Sesshomaru of Inuyasha's arrival, a maid led the group to a room they could freshen up in. After a quick wash of their hands and feet, the group followed the maid to the central throne room of the castle. As they entered the throne room, Naruto barely kept himself from staggering at the power he sensed from the occupants of the two thrones beneath a giant statue of an Inu-youkai in its true form that glared down at anyone waiting to speak to the Taiyoukai of the Western Lands on the other side of the room. One was obviously Inuyasha's brother Sesshomaru due to his silver hair and being male. His youki was so strong Naruto could have sworn he was at least at Nibi's level. The woman beside him however had an even stronger holy aura, despite also having a powerful youki aura as well. Her long black hair was in a braid that reached to below her waist and she wore an elaborate robe/kimono with a veil like piece of fabric that seemed to float above her shoulders in an unfelt breeze. Her pointed ears marked her as a pure blood youkai, but the star on her forehead was something Naruto had never seen or heard about before on any of the youkai his mother had described or introduced him to.

"Inuyasha, it's been a while since you last visited us," said the woman with a smile.

"Sorry, Lina, but when I agreed to take over as the physical education teacher at Kimiko's school I gave up most of my free time," said Inuyasha.

"You? A teacher?" asked Sesshomaru with a smirk. "I would think your method of teaching would be to toss the children off a cliff and see who climbs back up!"

Inuyasha snorted as he said, "You think Kagome would let me get away with doing that? While there are some hanyou and other stronger than average humans in the class, most of them are normal kids not suited for such rough stuff. Besides, I seem to recall your mother gave you quite a lecture when you did that to me!"

Sesshomaru blanched at the reminder of that stupid moment of his, especially when he remembered how Lady Izayoi had frowned at him while bandaging her son's bruises. The human princess had always treated him like he was her own flesh and blood, and the disappointment on her face was a better punishment than being lashed with a rod or whip. And his own mother had been just as harsh, scolding the then fifteen hundred year old Sesshomaru like a puppy that had wet the bed.

It was at this moment that a young Inuyoukai woman ran into the room. Naruto saw Shippo grin and hold out his arms, only for the woman to perform a flying glomp that pressed Naruto against her generous figure. "Shippo-kun, I've missed you!" she said with her eyes closed, only to frown as her supposed boyfriend was much too short and struggling to escape her grasp. Opening her eyes, the youkai girl found herself looking a blond haired kitsune hanyou struggling to breathe while an upset looking Shippo stared at her with tears in his eyes. Dropping Naruto, she leapt towards Shippo, hugging him. "Sorry Shippo-kun, I smelled Kitsune and went for it!" she said.

"I think you could tell the difference between a youkai and a hanyou kitsune!" muttered Shippo, crossing his arms to keep Rin from hugging him completely as he turned his back to her.

"I've had a cold, my nose is stuffed up!" explained Rin, pressing herself against Shippo's back while wrapping her arms around him from behind and nuzzling against his neck. Shippo tried to maintain his irritated expression, but his tails started wagging.

"Sister, do you have to act so forward?" asked a young inu youkai who entered the room. The newcomer looked like a chibi version of Sesshomaru with Lina's black hair.

"Isamu-otou, you just wait until you find a cute girl who likes you and see how you feel around her when your instincts take over!" shot back Rin.

The boy snorted, before his glance fell on Naruto. "And how could you mistake this seven tailed runt for your fiancé?" he asked, only to find a kunai blade at his throat.

"Idiot dogs who don't realize that even a seven tailed kitsune hanyou can have some special tricks up their sleeve shouldn't be so arrogant," said Naruto calmly.

Isamu spun around, a whip of poison youki extending from his fingers and lashing out at Naruto, only for the blond kitsune to explode in a cloud of smoke. "Impossible, what kind of technique is that?"

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, a kinjutsu of Konohagakure no Sato, my home village," replied Naruto from where he was standing on the wall looking down at Isamu.

Sesshomaru smirked as he stood up from his throne. "Most impressive for one so young. I take it this is the one you sent word needed my help?" he asked Inuyasha.

"Yep, kid wants to be the leader of his ninja village someday and I figure after you help me get his emotions under control you can help give him some lessons on being the big guy in charge," said Inuyasha.

"Good, follow me boy and we'll see what we have to cover as we tackle the greatest foe ever, paper work," said Sesshomaru before snagging Naruto's collar as the kitsune tried to escape the monster no Kage or Daiyoukai could beat, only to be caught by Sesshomaru's super speed and dragged off to the Daiyoukai's office with tears in his eyes.

"Sesshomaru-sama, it's time for y…" everyone turned to see a small imp carrying a staff topped with two heads entering the throne room, only to freeze as his eyes landed on the smiling Haruka.

"Jaken!" Squealed the youngest hanyou before she bounced off her father's back to tackle the imp before he could escape. "I missed you!" she squealed while squeezing the little imp so hard people could hear a crack from his back. "Let's go play!" she cheered before she ran off, dragging Jaken behind her by his foot, coincidently running towards the stairs that lead to the top floor of the castle and making sure Jaken's head would hit every step on the way.

"Sometimes I wonder if your daughter has two personalities," said Lina with a smile, "That is if she didn't only act like that to Jaken."

"Just don't give her any of those brownies you made for our last visit, food made by a demigoddess turned Daiyoukai makes my daughter bounce off the walls all night!" exclaimed Kagome.

"Or if you do, lock her in the room with the toad," suggested Inuyasha with a grin.

(0o0o0)

"I have to say, this wasn't as bad as I thought it would be," said Naruto as he looked over a previous year's report on rice crops in Sesshomaru's office. The Daiyoukai had taken advantage of Naruto's Kage Bunshin to do most of his paperwork for the month in a day and was now explaining the basics of managing a large domain like the Western Lands or Konoha to the boy. This involved going over the previous year's reports of production by the farmers, merchants, and other people who raised crops and produced goods in Sesshomaru's domain, then calculating taxes, returns, investments, improvements, and other developments based on those figures. If a forest burned down, it had to be replanted and the nearby villages wouldn't have wood for fire, building material, or craft material. A group of bandits halting all travelers on a road, while very stupid to try this in a Daiyoukai's domain, could impact trade between several villages and towns.

"I find your jutsu fascinating," said Sesshomaru with a smirk as he watched the clones tear through the paperwork and reading materials. "To think that humans invented such a powerful technique…"

"Yeah, and that reminds me, Oka-san asked me to give this scroll to you if I ran into you," said Naruto as he fished around in his supply pouch before pulling out a scroll Kyuubi had instructed him to give to the Daiyoukai if they met.

"But isn't this meant for me in your time period? I don't want to risk changing the future if I learn something I shouldn't know" asked Sesshomaru with a small smile.

"D’oh, I hate time travel!" muttered Naruto before he put the scroll back in his pouch.

"Well, any vigorous training will have to wait until you have your blade, I don't want to fight your youkai rage," said Sesshomaru before catching a scent on the breeze coming through the window. "It seems one of my friends has arrived unannounced, but she would be an excellent choice for teaching you some new tricks," said the Daiyoukai as he gestured for Naruto to follow him back to the throne room. "And I smell Kimiko leading what appears to be your friends from the descriptions Inuyasha gave me."

(0o0o0)

As Naruto and Sesshomaru entered the throne room, they found Lina, Kagome, and Sango talking with a nine tailed kitsune woman clad in a figure-hugging kimono who had a small human girl beside her hugging one of her tails. The girl was the first to notice them and lightly tugged on the kitsune's tail, getting her attention directed towards the newcomers as Sesshomaru grinned. "I see you decided to just drop in again like usual Kasei-san," he said.

"Well, I just rescued this little one from some human eating youkai and I figured Lina and Rin could help her get over the trauma of seeing her birth parents eaten," said the kitsune with a smile as she placed a hand on the human girl's head before looking at Sesshomaru. As she did so, her eyes caught sight of Naruto and became hearts. "Why Sesshomaru, who is this handsome young fox with you?" she asked as she sauntered towards the pair with a sway in her hips.

"Uzumaki Naruto…" said Naruto before Kasei reached him.

"I can tell from your clothes that you aren't from around here, how about I show you around and give you a night to remember?" asked Kasei as she ran a hand down Naruto's chest. This close, Naruto was able to see the elaborate katana sticking out of the obi of her kimono. It appeared to have a simple black hilt, but beneath the wrappings Naruto could see five shining gems, red, blue, green, yellow, and white, each with the kanji for one of the five elements engraved beneath it: Fire, Water, Earth, Lightning, and Wind.

'That's Oka-san's sword, Yakiba no Tenshi (Tempered Blade of the Natural Elements), but Oka-san told me she had that sword custom made for her!' thought Naruto before stiffening as Kasei leaned closer to him with her lips ready for a kiss.

At that minute, the halls to Sesshomaru's audience chamber slammed open as if a typhoon had hit them while a blue and white blur smashed into Kasei and knocked her through the wall. "What was that?" asked Lina in shock.

"That would be my pissed off fiancé," said Naruto as he ran towards the hole the blur and Kasei had made to find Hinata putting her speed to the max as she lashed out at Kasei. The vixen was using her superior speed to avoid most of the attacks, but it seemed every time she thought she had outpaced the human the girl would speed up. Finally deciding to put the pest in her place, Kasei leapt into the air while drawing Yakiba no Tenshi.

"Amatsu Kitsune Ryu: Enokorogusa Tsuchi (Heavenly Fox style: Fox Tail Hammer)!" yelled Kasei as she spun in midair, striking with both the blade and her tails at a wide eyed Hinata.

"Amatsu Kitsune Ryu: Odori Kitsune (Heavenly Fox Style: Leaping Fox)!" yelled another voice as another blade met Yakiba no Tenshi. Kasei found herself being shoved back into the air by the force of Naruto's counter and the pressure he exerted on the back of the sword he had grabbed from one of Sesshomaru's guards. The vixen flipped back and assumed a guard stance that Naruto mirrored with his own sword. "I'm warning you, Hinata-chan is my fiancé and I'll tear apart anyone trying to kill her, no matter how many tails they have!" growled Naruto.

"How do you know my sword style?" demanded Kasei, not taking her eyes off Naruto.

"Because five hundred years from now you taught it to me, Oka-san," said Naruto, causing Kasei's eyes to bulge before she fainted.

(0o0o0)

"First lesson I need to teach him: tact," said Sesshomaru as he watched Naruto cause his future mother to faint.

"Yeah, kid has to be as blunt as me," said Inuyasha with a smirk.

Shippo smirked as he said, "Then Sesshomaru has a long road ahead of him!" before jumping away from Inuyasha's reflexive punch.

(0o0o0)

"So let me get this straight," said Kasei after she had been woken up and listened to Naruto's explanation. "Four hundred and eighty seven years from now I'll meet your father, fall in love with him, get married and have you? You grow up and become a ninja, defeat a crazy madman who absorbed the power of that asshole Hachibi, and has an organization out to get the part of my Hoshi no Tama in you so they can use it to control me?" When Naruto and Hinata nodded, the kitsune woman grabbed the bottle of sake on the table and chugged it down. "Great, now we have to worry about screwing up the time line you know about," she said. "This is why I hate time travel and Kami forbids meddling with time. But I can't let my kit go back without doing my best to help him…"

At this moment, a lightning bolt struck the ground outside the castle despite it being a clear day. Everyone hurried outside to find strange marking etched in the ground. "What language is this?" asked Kimiko as she bent over to examine the markings. "It's not Japanese, English, or any other language I've seen."

"That's because it is the language of the gods," said Lina. "It reads, I KAMI-SAMA, HEARBY GIVE KASEI NO KITSUNE THE AUTHORITY TO TRAIN UZUMAKI NARUTO IN THE ARTS HE NEEDS TO SURVIVE THE TRIALS THAT AWAIT HIM. I ALSO AUTHORIZE MY CHILDREN ON THE MORTAL PLAIN TO MAKE THEIR HERITAGE KNOWN AND OFFER HIM ALL AID THEY CAN. As you may guess from this, I’m a goddess first-class, unlimited license, as are my mother Belldandy and Aunt Skuld, while my aunt Urd is a Goddess second class, management category limited license. I'm pretty sure that the Almighty has sent them a similar message so they can help you with their powers if need be."

"Well that explains some things," said Hinata, "Like Skuld-sensei's talent with mechanics and Urd-sensei's chemistry skills…"

"Yes, now that you've got grandfather's approval Kasei-san," Lina started to say, only to have the kitsune's eyes widen.

"Your grandfather is Kami-sama?" shrieked the vixen, causing Lina to chuckle.

"Yeah, Oka-san is his daughter, even though my father Keiichi is a mortal in Kimiko's time," said Lina with a grin that often appeared on Naruto's face when he was embarrassed.

(0o0o0)

"All right, time to show me what you've really got, Naruto!" said Kasei as she stood opposite Naruto. Both Kitsune were gripping their blades tightly before exploding into action. Swords, claws, and tails clashed as they became a pair of gold and red blurs crashing together, only solidifying into normal sight when the two clashed together.

"Those two are amazing," said Inuyasha as he washed the clash of the kitsune.

Kagome nodded from where she was brushing the hair of the little girl Kasei had rescued. "Naruto isn't one to hold back, and from what I've seen Kasei isn't either, do you know her, Shippo?"

"Yeah, she's the current princess of the Kitsune clan and the strongest of the nine tailed kitsune currently in existence. Her father is the current Kyuubi no kitsune, though there are rumors he will be stepping down soon and passing the office on to one of his two children, Kasei-hime or her brother Ankoku. Most of us favor Kasei-hime because Ankoku is merciless and has already gained a reputation as a letch that would force all the vixens of the clan to service him."

Any further conversation was cut off as the girl Kasei had rescued gave a gasp of delight, "Kasei-sama is so strong," as Kasei delivered a blow that sent Naruto skidding across the ground.

"That's right, we never got your name," said Kagome.

"It's Mia, are they going to b… eep!" the girl gasped as Naruto charged in and almost slashed Kasei's head off if she hadn't leaned back at the last moment.

"They're getting closer and closer to lethal blows," said Sesshomaru.

To the surprise of the watchers, Kasei suddenly went on the defensive and allowed Naruto to pursue her as they dueled. Akira, Miyuki, and Ranko all began to notice the same thing as Kasei kept avoiding Naruto's attacks. "She's spiraling," muttered Ranko.

"Yeah, could she know…" pondered Miyuki.

Akira shook his head as he said, "No way, dad is the only one who they've taught…"

Any future comments were cut off as Kasei delivered an upwards slash with her katana and yelled, "Hiryū Shōten Ha Kirite (Flying Dragon Ascension Strike Cutter)!" a tornado erupted from beneath Naruto and carried him into the air, while blades of youki and wind sliced into him.

"It's like my Bakuryuuha (Backlash Wave)!" yelled Inuyasha.

"No, it's a Joketsu secret technique that uses the hot ki created by the attacker and the cold ki generated by the defender to create the tornado!" yelled Ranko. "But I've never seen it done with a blade before!"

At that moment, the tornado dissipated and revealed Kasei sheathing her blade and Naruto falling towards the ground. His friends became worried as a red aura appeared around him and they saw his Hitai-ate was blown off in the wind. "Oh hell," gasped Akira before Naruto hit the ground and barreled towards Kasei full tilt. Kasei's eyes widened at Naruto's unexpected speed as the blond kitsune sped past her. The next sound heard was a thud as Naruto tackled Hinata and proceeded to lick her face like a puppy.

Kasei couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at the two and said, "I think sparring is over for now, we'll need to wait until you have your normal blade and find a way to guarantee you don't lose yourself in your youki when we fight."

"I don't know, I kind of like this side of him," said Hinata with a smile as she hugged Naruto, causing his tails to wag. "At least he isn't trying to tear Kasei-san apart."

"Probably because a youkai's scent doesn't change no matter how old they get," said Inuyasha. "Even after fifty years pinned to a tree I still recognized Sesshomaru's scent the first time we met after Kagome released me. So Kasei smells the same way she will after she gives birth to Naruto and thus he recognizes her attacks as sparring or playtime, despite the power behind the attacks."

"Or he could just want to cuddle with Hinata," said Akira with a smirk as Naruto started kissing Hinata with lots of tongue.

The kiss lasted for several seconds before Naruto reluctantly pulled back, leaving a slightly dazed Hinata to grin happily as she said, "My boyfriend is my happy pill. He turns my brain to jell-o," before blushing as her brain caught up with her mouth. This of course caused everyone to burst out laughing, while Naruto only tilted his head to the side, not seeing a problem with the statement since it was true.

(0o0o0)

Later, once everyone had settled down for the night, the girls were having a slumber party in Rin's room. Mia was especially enjoying the feeling of having so many big sisters and the snacks Miyuki, Kimiko, Ryeka, Ranko, and Hinata had brought from modern Japan.

"So, what was kissing Naruto with that youki aura like?" asked Ranko with a grin.

Hinata blushed, but all the girls were smiling at her and she knew from experience with Ino and Sakura that they wouldn't give up until she told them. "It turned me into a puddle of affectionate goo and almost had me gibbering affectionate words and phrases in various languages," she mumbled, her face stained tomato red.

"Maybe I should try kissing Hiryuu like that," Kimiko muttered, only to freeze as she realized what she had said out loud.

"I knew it, you do like him!" squealed Miyuki. "Akira told me how he acted during Naruto's kitsune exam!"

Kimiko's face started to turn red as the girls pounced on the idea of her crushing on her long time friend. She was well known as a tomboy and the other girls seized any chance to tease her about being feminine. It was times like this that Kimiko regretted how her parents had mostly raised her in Feudal Japan until her grandfather has his heart attack and was no longer able to tend to the Higurashi Shrine. Living in Feudal Japan had her used to roughing it to survive and fighting youkai almost every day, not doing the typical girl stuff. This was one of the reasons she liked her friends, they didn't expect her to be like one of the girls in a manga or a girly girl. So she did the only thing she could to shut them up, she grabbed a giant pillow and chucked it at Rin, smashing the inu-youkai girl in the face. Soon a massive pillow fight erupted, with each girl smacking away at the others until the room was full of flying feathers and they were all fast asleep from the fight.

(0o0o0)

Naruto twitched as the sounds of the girls' pillow fight finally stopped, allowing him to get back to sleep. The fight had kept Shippo and him up long after the rest of the guys dropped off thanks to their more sensitive hearing. "At least they weren't telling embarrassing stories or anything," mumbled Naruto, to which Shippo replied with a nod.

(0o0o0)

The next day, Toto-sai arrived around noon with the repaired Nenshousaiga. Naruto was glad to have his sword back and immediately drew it. He noticed the sword seemed a bit heavier, though not as heavy as Inuyasha had mentioned Tessaiga becoming after it was repaired. When he mentioned this to Toto-sai, the demon smith said, "You're closer in power to your mother than Inuyasha was to his father, so there isn't as much of a weight difference."

"But to get it back to normal I have to become stronger than Oka-san, right?" asked Naruto.

"Possibly, but with kitsune I wouldn't be too sure since your species can be very tricky. The sword might have a mind of its own and test you first," said Toto-sai with a shrug.

Kasei now stepped forward and asked, "Toto-sai, can you use one of my fangs to make a locking item for Naruto's power that can't be lost as easily as his sword or Hitai-ate?"

Toto-sai shook his head and said, "Nope, you haven't physically had him yet, so your fang at this time wouldn't work. Giving birth changes the frequency of a female youkai's power just enough that I wouldn't be able to sync a talisman made from your fangs with Naruto. Now if I had a few fangs from your form after you gave birth to Naruto it would be easy, a simple pair of armguards would do."

"Figures it wouldn't be so easy," muttered Naruto before grinning at Kasei. "Well, we can still spar now with me going all out." Kasei's answering smirk had everyone feeling nervous as they walked towards the training ground meant for Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's personal sparring where the watchers could stand in a slightly elevated section much like that provided to the participants in the Konoha Chunin Exam arena while the walls were specially designed to resist the powerful attacks Inuyasha and Sesshomaru could produce.

(0o0o0)

"Kami-sama, they're unbelievable!" gasped Ranko as she watched Naruto and Kasei come together again and again as Nenshousaiga met Yakiba no Tenshi. The two blades seemed to sing as they clashed, their wielders performing every move in the Amatsu Kitsune Ryu.

"Yeah," said Inuyasha, glancing at his brother, who smirked. The two inu-youkai suddenly drew their own blades and leapt into the fray. The four way match was even more intense as Inuyasha unleashed his Kaze no Kizu (Wind Scar) and Sesshomaru unleashed his Sōryūha (Dragon Strike) from Tokijin. Kasei finally managed to almost corner Naruto, only to have to dodge a giant fox fire ball that kept going towards Inuyasha. The inu-hanyou instinctively swung Tessaiga at the attack with a cry of, "Bakuryuuha (Backlash Wave)!" Inuyasha's jaw dropped in horror as the Kaze no Kizu wrapped around the giant fox fire ball and turned it into a giant tornado that went right towards the surprised Naruto. Sesshomaru, seeing the young kitsune hanyou was caught off guard, launched a Sōryūha to try to blast away the Bakuryuuha. What happened next surprised everyone.

The two attacks merged into one giant electric tornado tearing towards the kitsune boy. Kasei's eyes widened as she started to dive forward to save Naruto, only to see him sheathe Nenshousaiga and hold both his hands in front of him as if pushing against a wall. Fire began to swirl in Naruto's right hand before forming a sphere, while a sphere of white and blue wind blades formed in his left. "Katon: Rasengan and Fūton: Rasengan!" roared Naruto just before the tornado crashed into him. To the amazement of Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, the wind of the combined attack was sucked into the flame attack while the wind attack sliced through the electricity. As the attack dissipated, Naruto's face suddenly shifted from focus to panic as the two Rasengan in his hands started to vibrate. "I can't control 'em!" he yelled just before the two orbs merged together and unleashed a blazing tornado that thankfully didn't go beyond the training yard thanks to its thick walls. Naruto was at the center of the fire storm and thus unscathed, but the sheathes of Tessaiga and Tenseiga both put up a shield to protect their wielders, while Kasei simply used her tails to create a fox fire shield for herself. In the viewing area, Hinata, Kimiko, and Kagome instantly each put up a barrier to protect the entire group, while Lina started chanting and created a wall of water behind the barriers to dampen the heat with a wave of her hand. The biggest surprise was Ryeka. Her hands had snapped up and a barrier composed of floating logs had appeared in front of the three miko barriers, and in front of it was what looked like seven shapes made of light appeared just before the attacked reached their position. The three miko were surprised to find that none of the energy seemed to touch their barriers, but Ryeka collapsed as soon as the attack died down, causing everyone to panic and swarm around her.

(0o0o0)

Ryeka slowly became aware of a frantic Miyah from Ren-oh-ki. "Ren, stop it, go ask dad to give you a fresh picked carrot," muttered the cyan haired girl as she turned over and snuggled into her covers. There was quiet for a minute before Ryeka felt a small furry body wiggling under the covers before a cold cabbit nose was pressed against the small of her back. With a yelp, Ryeka leapt to the ceiling, using her power to hover out of range of her pet's nose. "REN, you'd better run or I’m going to be having some lucky Cabbit feet!" yelled Ryeka as she dove towards her pet. The little Cabbit ran for her life as Ryeka chased after her. It was only when she crashed into her mother's force field and realized she was back home that recent events caught up with the genius. "Wasn't I just watching Naruto, Kasei-san, Inuyasha-sensei, and Sesshomaru-sama spar in feudal Japan?" she asked.

Ryoko raised one eyebrow as she floated up to her daughter's eye level and said, "That was two days ago, your friend described you using the Jurai shield combined with seven Kou Ou Yoku (Light Hawk Wings) at once. You crashed afterwards and Inuyasha rushed you back here. Mom said you just needed to rest, apparently using both sets of power at the same time drains your energy twice as fast, not to mention this was the first time you've used the Kou Ou Yoku."

"Yeah, when I first used them I fainted soon afterwards," said Tenchi as he smiled at his daughter. "The important thing is you instinctively used the Kou Ou Yoku to protect your friends. I'll start teaching you how to use matter conversion to create Light Hawk armor and the Light Hawk Sword." Ryeka grinned, only to glare at Tenchi's next words. "And no, you may not use the Light Hawk Sword and film yourself using 'a real lightsaber I made myself' for the Star Wars Physics forum I know you frequent!"

"I would never do that!" gasped Ryeka with a shocked look appearing on her face.

Washu chuckled as she started waving a scanner over her granddaughter. "We know you wouldn't, Ryeka, but take it from The Greatest Scientific Genius in the universe that the temptation to brag when you accomplish something everyone else thought was impossible is very strong," said the red head before her eyes flicked over the readings she had taken. "Well, you'll be going back to school tomorrow; your friends said they'd get notes for you, so you can relax for the rest of the day."

(0o0o0)

"Naruto, come in here," said Jiraiya as the kitsune boy exited the bathroom.

"What's up, Ero-Sennin? I've been training non stop since Taro-teme came around and I need my sleep!" growled Naruto.

Jiraiya's stern expression quieted any further arguments from Naruto and the fox boy meekly followed the Sennin into his room. There, Jiraiya slammed his hands to the ground and two small clouds of smoke appeared before clearing away to reveal two small toad elders dressed in robes. "Naruto meet Fukasaku and Shima, they're the elders of Myobokuzan and they'll be training you in Senjutsu (Hermit Techniques) that you'll need to beat Akatsuki. Also, the training should help tame your youkai side," said Jiraiya as Naruto stared at the two small toads.

(0o0o0)

With first Naruto and now Ryeka having to take a few days off from classes, the whole school was watching Akira, Ranko, Miyuki, Kimiko, and Hinata to see if they would be the next one to suffer an accident. Miyuki was the next one when she crashed into a group of gardening club members carrying trays of catnip. The end result was one hyper active cat girl bouncing around the school and meowing loudly. It took Naruto and Kimiko to hold her down long enough for Akira to pour hot water on her and make the catnip lose its effect. The end result was a school-wide ban on catnip and several students covered in light scratches that kept Hotaru and her medical class busy for the rest of the day thanks to Miyuki's claws.

(0o0o0)

It was the day after the catnip incident that Naruto found an ornate envelope addressed to him when he returned home from school. "Hoshiko, any idea who this is from?" he asked as he showed it to the house keeper.

"No, Naruto-san, it was here when I got back from the market," said the kitsune.

"Hinata, can you check for any seals on the inside?" asked Naruto. The Hyuuga heiress nodded and activated her Byakugan.

"No seals, Naruto-kun," she said after deactivating her Kekkei Genkai. Naruto nodded and opened the letter before scowling at what he read. "What's wrong Naruto?" she asked.

"Some big shot nine tails just got back to Japan after a long trip and heard I was here. Basically, kitsune custom forces me to go see any kitsune of eight or more tails that requests an audience with me if I'm not vitally involved with something at the moment. Since training doesn't count, I'm going to have to visit this Kuroten (Sable) for dinner tonight. She'll be sending a car, she's apparently a big shot in the human world and lives in a mansion outside Tokyo where she doesn't have to deal with as much pollution," explained Naruto. "Ugh, I hate formal things like this, and I can bet you I'll be splashed by water at some point, so I'll have to wear something that looks good on both Naruko and myself." Shaking his head, Naruto turned to Gishou and Hoshiko. "Either of you heard of this Kuroten before?" he asked.

"I haven't, but then I've been living with you for the last eleven years," said Gishou.

"I've mostly stayed in Kyuubi-sama's realm, keeping her den tidy and not socializing except with my friends," said the kitsune house keeper.

"Great, better call Shippou-senpai, I need all the info I can get!" muttered Naruto as he went to the phone.

(0o0o0)

"I can do this!" muttered Naruto as he stepped out of the limousine Kuroten had sent for him with Gishou at his heels. Naruto was clad in a kimono that mimicked his father's famous flame coat, something that was simple but looked good on both Naruko and him. He did have his Hitai-ate on underneath the green obi that tied the kimono shut, preventing him from losing control if things got crazy.

Naruto gulped as the door to the mansion opened to reveal a vixen worthy of the name Sable. She had gorgeous black hair that fell down her back in a waterfall of shadow and covered the right half of her face, while her dress was a clingy black evening gown with sparkles that highlighted every curve on her body and showed that like most female kitsune, she had a figure that would have guys gaga over her and following her every order. She had a pair of dark purple opera gloves gracing her arms, with some slim bracelets over them. Naruto caught a glimpse of dusky skin though the slit up the thigh of the dress and a pair of dark blue heels on top of black lace stockings. (Basically, think Jessica Rabbit only everything red is black)

"Naruto-sama, you honor my home with your presence," she said before bowing, giving Naruto a good glimpse of her cleavage.

"Kuroten-sama, thank you for inviting me to your home," said Naruto as he returned the bow before following her inside. As his hostess led him though the house, Naruto noticed many framed movie posters that seemed to feature her as one of the major characters of the movie, but Naruto didn't recognize any of them. "You're an actress as well as a model, Kuroten-sama?" asked Naruto, gesturing to one of the posters.

"Yes, they're pretty much the same thing, get dressed, pose pretty or say some lines, do a few takes to get everything right, and then you're done and off to the next scene or shoot. I've just gotten back from a photo-shoot, movie, photo-shoot rush, so I apologize for not contacting you sooner," said Kuroten.

"That's ok, I understand how busy life can be when you have many responsibilities," replied Naruto with a smile as they entered a dimly lit dining room.

Kuroten smiled before gesturing to the small table set for two with a pair of candles in the center. A cute bunny youkai dressed in a waitress costume was standing by the table with what appeared to be two menus in her hands. "I find it easier to have my chef prepare a menu on what he can make each evening based on the quality of his current stock, most nights I just want something simple and the menu tells me what is available," said Kuroten as she took her seat before reaching for the menu.

The waitress smiled at Naruto and handed him his menu, which to his delight was filled with relatively simple fare, he hated fancy foods and all things gourmet because they demanded etiquette, something nobody could pound into his head, not even his mother or Hinata, besides basic manners. "I'll have the Pork Shabu Shabu," said the fox boy, "And a bowl of ground turkey for Gishou. Don't give me that look, pal, you need to watch your fat intake, I've seen you gaining weight since we came here and stopped doing missions full time!" Gishou frowned while Kuroten chuckled, having ordered a large steak dinner with a baked potato, salad, and a milkshake. "Isn't that a bit much to eat with the figure you have to keep?" asked Naruto.

"Between shoots I can eat what I want, when I'm on set I have to diet like crazy so the costumes and outfits always fit. I get a good workout every day I'm not on set though, so I don't gain weight," replied the vixen. "And after the hectic schedule my agent put me through I deserve these treats!"

"No arguments here, whenever I get a chance to go on a ramen binge at Ichiraku ramen stand I do it," said Naruto.

Kuroten chuckled and asked, "Could you tell me of life in the elemental countries? I've been away for the last century and I'm not up to date on most things."

Naruto gladly began telling her the basics of the elemental nations, including his team's mission to Wave country, though he caught an odd glint in her eye at that part, the invasion by Sand and Sound, followed by the one day war with Sound, and finally his training here in Japan. By that time the waitress was bringing out a desert cart, only to have Kuroten say, "We'll have the dessert out in the garden; it's cooled down nicely by now!"

(0o0o0)

Kuroten's garden was quite the spectacle, with fountains everywhere and many statures. Naruto noticed that many of them were of beautiful women, some in very scanty clothing. Kuroten led Naruto to a small arbor that had a romantic view of her garden's central pond where a small table was being set for two. After the two had a seat, they read the menu and Naruto settled for a bowl of fresh strawberry ice cream while Kuroten had a chocolate mousse sundae. As they were finishing up the treats, Naruto had to adjust his kimono, he was still feeling hot. He idly noticed Gishou curling up at the base of the table and falling asleep.

"I find it fascinating that you've grown up to be such a successful ninja," said Kuroten as she smiled at Naruto while slowly inching towards him. "I was never that skilled in most of the kitsune tricks, my power mainly stems from the fact I outmaneuver my opponents to my advantage from behind the scenes. My expertise is in the more… intimate… aspects of the body." At this point, Kuroten was right next to Naruto and pressed her silk covered fingers lightly against his chest. Naruto's face turned beet red as his eyes took on the look of a deer staring into the headlights of an onrushing car.

"Uhhh, I've got a fiancée I really REALLY love!" stammered Naruto as he started to scoot away from his hostess.

"Maybe, but I can guarantee I know tricks she's never even dreamed of!" said Kuroten huskily, now pressing herself against Naruto's front. Naruto's panicked Kawarimi to escape the situation ended up with Kuroten grasping a frog and Naruto splashing into the pond and transforming into Naruko. "No man refuses me!" growled Kuroten as she leapt towards Naruko. The blonde kitsune hurriedly made a break towards the shore, grabbing Gishou from the arbor at the cost of a gash down her arm and bolting towards the mansion, avoiding the guards who suddenly appeared to catch her, only to have two small darts connected to wires hit her. Electricity shot down the lines and Naruko screamed as the voltage ripped through her, sending her into unconsciousness as she fell face first into the edge of the pond. Kuroten snarled as she brushed her soaked hair out of her face, "Bring the little princess to my playroom, I'll be there as soon as I've changed!" Nobody noticed a small orange toad slowly rise out of the area beneath where Naruko had fallen.

(0o0o0)

Hinata jerked as if she had been smacked, feeling a phantom pain. "Naruto-kun," she muttered.

"Relax, Hinata, he's probably getting ready to come home soon," said Miyuki. The teens were hanging at the Uzumaki home, waiting for Naruto to get back. Hoshiko had gone out with a few of her friends from the neighborhood while Jiraiya was out speaking with his editor in Japan, making this a good night for all of Naruto's friends to get together and relax.

Hinata sighed as she said, "Yes, I know that, Miyuki-chan, but chaos seems to surround Naruto-kun all the time!"

"Even more than Ni-san!" said Ranko with a grin as she took a bite of some chocolate pocky.

All fun and games were put on halt as a dog sized orange toad with a blue jacket appeared in the center of the room with an accompanying cloud of smoke. "Gamakichi, what's wrong?" gasped Hinata.

"Naruto has been captured, he managed to use an injury he got to provide the blood to summon me underwater and his captors missed me!" gasped the little toad.

"I'm calling dad!" yelled Kimiko and Ryeka at the same time as they whipped out their cell phones. Akira was already racing out the door to inform Ranma and Akane, while Hinata quickly ran to her room and pulled out her shinobi gear (picture Tifa's outfit from Advent Children with ANBU armor). The all-black top and shorts allowed her plenty of movement, while the forearm and leg protectors would give her some protection. As Hinata ran to the front of the house, she saw Ryeka fiddling with her holographic laptop. "Ride coming up in five seconds," said the cyan haired girl before hitting a final key and grinning. There was a whump sound of displaced air as a giant UNSC Pelican appeared. The Cyan haired girl threw herself into the pilot's seat, grabbing Kimiko as her copilot. The rest of the kids, including a panting Akira, hopped into the back seats and strapped themselves in as the Pelican lifted off. Ryeka entered the address of the letter Naruto had received and as soon as her computer found a match they were off, leaving a note for their parents to find, which Ranma did as he burst around the corner just in time to see the ship lift off.

(0o0o0)

The sound of a cell phone going off interrupted the romantic movie a couple was watching. The male of the pair grumbled as he reached for the phone and hit the talk button. "Yes? You're serious commander? And they went after him without waiting for adult help? Ugh, Uzumaki seems to always ruin my private time with my girl. At least we've got the evidence to go in and bust the bitch up, we've been trying to get into that place for years! Round up the team and I'll meet you at the base." Hanging up the phone, he turned to his girlfriend and said, "Sorry, dear, but it appears Naruto has once again bitten off more than he can chew. I'm going to have to lead the boys in and bust him out."

The girl appeared amused by this as she reached for something in her pocket. "Then we'd better go help him out, that is his friends don't beat us to it! One good thing about being your fiancé is I can tag along on these little adventurers."

"Wouldn't try to keep you away," answered the man as he opened a dresser containing a katana and an armored combat suit with a JGSD (Japanese Ground Self Defense Force) badge on the shoulder.

(0o0o0)

Naruko regained consciousness to find herself in a torture room that looked perfect for Anko to use to break captured enemy kunoichi. She was currently strapped to a giant metal ring that kept her arms and legs apart while her tails tingled with the sensation of a local anesthetic. And her muscles, she discovered, were dead to her commands. Chakra was sluggish but there, youki gone to a point she was surprised she had her ears and tails. The thing that really had Naruko worried was the lack of clothing on her body, but she knew at least she hadn't been violated, she would have been able to smell the scent of that. 'You there, Naruto?' she asked her mental brother.

'Ugh, I'm here, but I wish I wasn't!' replied the boy.

'Anything funny in there?' asked Naruko.

'There's a sort of hermaphrodite kitsune running around who tried to kiss and grope me, no real features aside from the gender specific ones,' replied Naruto.

'Maybe an aphrodisiac?' suggested Naruko.

'Makes sense,' agreed the male half of the pair.

Any further conversation was cut off by the heavy dungeon door opening. In walked Kuroten, only now she was dressed in a leather mini-kimono that showed off everything. Her gloves were now leather and went to the middle of her upper arms while the leather stiletto heel boots she wore ended at mid thigh and gave her an edge of height she really didn't need. Naruko nervously noticed the spiked bracelets, anklets, and necklace that added an unneeded sense of danger to this already formidable vixen. What surprised her and Naruto most was her companion. It was a human who was almost comically tall and thin, but his pale straw colored hair and tinted glasses made Naruko think she had seen him before. It wasn't until he sneered that she figured it out and gasped, "Gato!"

"Yes, your male half was part of the reason my little brother died," said the man. "I'm Perro (Spanish for dog since Gato is Spanish for cat), and now I can finally have my revenge!" Naruko realized that his lean look did give him the slight appearance of a dog, but she was more concerned about what would happen to her. "Unlike my brother, who was more of a general black market member, I specialize in the flesh trade, using Kuroten-hime's films as recruitment areas for 'extras' for her films that we then train and sell.

"As you may have figured out," said Kuroten, "your food was spiked. A compound in your main course combined with some disguised as spices made an aphrodisiac, while the ice cream contained the activating agent. I'm actually surprised you aren't a whimpering bundle of lust right now. But you soon will be and we'll sell you to the highest bidder. I bet the Tsuchikage would pay a fortune to film you being his little pet for a video he'd send to your father!" Naruko would have offered a snappy comeback, but the aphrodisiac was starting to hit her hard, making it hard to come up with one.

"I'll leave her to you, Kuroten-hime, I've got to contact a few people who might be interested in her," said Perro with a smirk before he left the room, leaving the two kitsune alone.

"I think we're going to have lots of fun!" said Kuroten as she gripped a riding crop and advanced towards Naruko.

(0o0o0)

"How much longer?" Hinata asked Ryeka.

"Damn it, Hinata, we'll be there in a few minutes, stop asking me!" yelled Ryeka. "Or so help me, I'll make you get out and walk! The only reason we're going this slow is because I don't want the entire JSDF crashing down on us!"

"We're coming up on the estate now," said Akira, who had been acting as navigator for the whole flight.

Ryeka nodded and flipped several switches, causing a hologram of the mansion they were approaching to appear. The hologram turned wire frame and little red figures could be seen. "Heat sensors show no major firepower, but there are a large number of guards," said the cyan haired girl.

Hinata was staring at the image with an intense expression before saying, "They're patrolling the grounds at timed intervals. But what's this?" and pointing at a large heat signature near the base of the mansion.

Ryeka glanced at the signature and her eyes widened. "Never seen anything that big before… but this place is owned by a youkai, so it could be a youkai. Can your Byakugan tell us anything?"

"It's too far with too much in the way to make out much detail, but I can see some youki, so it is definitely a youkai," said Hinata. "I think it might be a dragon, but I'm not sure."

Kimiko groaned in frustration, "If it is a dragon, we're in trouble. You'd need a fighter jet or a helicopter to match them in the air. I could purify it, but it would take more than one arrow or a super charged one, which would leave me vulnerable."

"We might be able to match a dragon in the air in this Pelican, but I mainly constructed this for combat and carrying capacity, not speed and maneuverability…" said Ryeka before a light scratching was heard at the back of the ship.

Everyone stared at one another before Kimiko's eyes widened. "Impossible," she muttered before hitting the button to open the door and revealing a panting Flamie flapping his wings furiously to keep up with them. The red dragon was currently the size of a large dog and quickly doubled his efforts to surge forwards into the back of the Pelican and land on the ground so he could recover while Kimiko closed the door and put her hands on her hips. "Flamie, what are you doing here?" she demanded.

Finally catching his breath, Flamie said, "I heard your call to your dad and took off, I didn't want him thinking of using me to catch up to you since he'd make me fly so fast I would drop from the air due to exhaustion."

(0o0o0)

Naruko panted as Kuroten stopped lashing her and tossed her riding crop aside. "Well, you're holding out better than I expected," said the dark vixen as she wheeled out a strange cart. Attached to the cart were some electric cables that ended in sponges. Naruko could hear and smell the crackle of electricity in the wet sponges and swallowed nervously as Kuroten pulled on some thick rubber gloves before grabbing two of the cables. "Let's try some electroshock therapy," said the evil vixen before she brushed the sponges over Naruko's breasts. The current wasn't enough to be lethal, especially against a kitsune hanyou, but the shock caused Naruko to scream as the sensitive nerves in her breasts were assaulted, which in turn, caused Kuroten to laugh. "By the time I’m done with you, you'll be calling me mistress!" she declared before bringing the sponges down towards Naruko's crotch. The blonde vixen's screams echoed through the dungeon accompanied by the crackle of electricity and Kuroten's laughter.

(0o0o0)

Hinata shuddered, looking back at the mansion. "Naruto… he's in trouble!"

"Well we can't just go rushing in there! You said you can't make out any details, so I can't just strafe the house because we have no idea where Naruto is and I don't want to put a 40mm bullet in him!" exclaimed Ryeka.

"Then we'll have to do a search and rescue type scenario," replied Hinata. "But we'll need a distraction to make it easier.”

"Leave that to Flamie and me, nothing says distraction like a dragon raiding your house," said Kimiko with a smirk.

"Are you sure about that?" asked Miyuki.

"Yeah, I have plenty of experience riding Flamie while fighting other flying youkai," replied the dog girl.

"If we could provide them with another attacker it would divide their attention more," suggested Hinata, remembering Iruka's lectures from the academy about distractions by the rest of a team to allow one member of a team to infiltrate the target.

"Leave that to us!" said Ranko with a grin. "I've got a good flashy technique for busting down the gates and so do these two!" while putting her arms on Akira and Miyuki's shoulders.

"Then while you four cause a diversion, Ryeka will fly over the mansion and drop me on the roof so I can start searching for Naruto-kun," said Hinata.

"Let's do this!" said Kimiko as she prepared to smack the button to open the Pelican's back door.

(0o0o0)

The estate guards were caught totally by surprise by Flamie flying over the estate walls with a roar. They were trained to deal with paparazzi, rabid fans, police, and even SWAT forces, but a fire breathing dragon was more than they could handle.

(0o0o0)

"Looks like we're good to go," said Ranko as she surveyed the main gate to the estate. "I'd say I can take it down, then you two take out the guards who are sure to run towards the gate." She glanced at her niece and nephew with a smile as she started gathering her ki in her hands. "Shishisenkou (Lion Battle Roar)!" yelled Ranko as she released a ki blast in the shape of a roaring lion's head that tore through the gate in an explosion of smoke and dust, causing the guards to run towards the new opening in the walls.

"Ready?" Akira asked Miyuki, who nodded. "Kamite Ougi (Godhand Succession Move): Shockwave!" yelled the twins as they each unleashed three energy blasts along the ground that smashed into the guards and sent them flying.

(0o0o0)

From the small building on the side of the mansion, a roar was heard before a winged form broke through the roof of the building and rushed towards Flamie and Kimiko. The hanyou girl groaned as she saw a green dragon rising towards her. "Great, acid breath!" she muttered. "If it uses that on my arrows I doubt I can hit it. Guess it's flame time, eh boy?"

Flamie's answer was a fireball streaking at the green, who glided to the side to avoid the attack, causing it to crash into the ground. "Great, fast on the wing," growled Flamie.

(0o0o0)

"Time to target, one minute!" yelled Ryeka as the Pelican flew over the estate grounds. Hinata was in the back, a pair of goggles protecting her eyes. "Are you sure you want to do this?" yelled the cyan haired girl.

"Yes!" Hinata yelled, having to raise her voice to the max to be heard over the winds howling around the back of the ship's open door.

"Then go!" yelled Ryeka and Hinata leapt out of the craft.

(Cue Mission Impossible theme for the rest of Hinata's scenes)

Hinata kept her arms back and let herself fall, the wind causing her hair to whip around. Byakugan active, Hinata saw a few guards on the roof of the mansion setting up a machine gun nest and several more carrying rocket launchers. All of them were focused on the mid air duel of Flamie and the green dragon. 'Kuso, this will have to be fast and hard,' thought Hinata before pushing chakra out of her back. The burst of energy changed her landing point and Hinata extended her palm towards the machine gun nest. "Joudan Bakushou (High-Rank Exploding Palm)!" yelled Hinata just as the guards in the nest looked up. The explosive force of an explosive note shot out from Hinata's palm, both slowing her descent and blasted the machine gun nest apart. Hinata used the force of the explosion to flip to her feet from mid air and charged the few rocket launch guards with blazing chakra palms. Within seconds, the men were out cold and Hinata was dashing through the roof top door to find her beloved.

(0o0o0)

Ranko ducked under a gunshot in a scene right out of the Matrix movies and then slashed with her bokken. The face of the guard she was facing turned pale as his gun was sliced in half and Ranko's follow up kick was enough to take him out.

Nearby, Miyuki was bounding around a group of guards attempting to use stun guns on her, saying things like how their boss would reward them for catching a catgirl for her. Miyuki's use of her feline agility and acrobatics lead to the capture team stunning themselves into submission.

Meanwhile, Akira was weaving between the swings of a gang of sword wielders, taunting them with things like, "My aunt fights better than that!" and "Oh I’m so scared, I've seen a faster swing from my school's principal!" while constantly spiraling around. With a grin, Akira punched into the air while yelling, "Hiryū Shōten Ha!" and sending the swordsmen into the air with the resulting tornado. A roar from above was the only warning the three Saotome had before they had to avoid Flamie's missed fireball attack.

"Kuso!" was the yell from all three Saotome kids as they had to deal with missed attacks from above and guards pouring out of the mansion.

(0o0o0)

"Yikes!" yelled Kimiko as the green dragon sent out a cone of corrosive gas. The attack was boosted by a favorable wind and Flamie roared in anger as the airborne acid brushed his left wing tip. The red dragon preformed a slide slip to get out of the attack's range and then used his greater height to dive on his enemy. Just before impact, Flamie did a loop that carried him down and into the stomach of the green dragon claws first. Flamie's talons lashed out at the softer underbelly scales and tore a large gash in them. However, even as it bellowed in pain, the green dragon's wings buffeted Flamie in the head, sending him spinning towards the ground. The green dragon roared and dove towards his foe, only to scream in outrage as Kimiko fired off an attack with a cry of, "Shuu'u (Eagle Shot)!" and sent an arrow surrounded in energy shaped like an eagle towards it. The arrow left a nasty gash above the green dragon's eyes and sent blood flowing into the right one.

The green dragon was so focused on Flamie and Kimiko that it didn't notice Akira and Miyuki spiraling around Ranko as she gripped her sword. With a cry of "Hiryū Shōten Ha!" the twins sent Ranko rocketing upwards with her blade glowing. It was only as Ranko rode the tornado that her niece and nephew had produced above the green dragon that it noticed her and by then, it was too late.

"Kuukanshouten'i (Spatial Soar Transfer)!" yelled Ranko before delivering a downward stab to the dragon's head, followed by a slash that took out its remaining good eye, a thrust that hit between the eyes, and a spinning upwards slash that left the dragon stunned as she started to fall back to earth.

At this point, Flamie swooped in with a bellow of, "Karyuu no yokugeki (Fire Dragon Wing Strike)!" as his wings were covered in flames and delivered a flame-enhanced flyby attack to the green dragon.

At close range, Kimiko released the attack she had been preparing while yelling, "Toryuu (Dragon Slayer)!" A beam of energy shot from the bow to strike the green and rapidly broke into many smaller beams that skewered the dragon in its vitals. Flamie swooped low enough that Ranko could land on his back. As the corpse of the green dragon hit the ground, Flamie touched down and roared at the guards advancing towards a panting Akira and Miyuki.

The guards hesitated for a moment, only to fall as an energy field surrounded them and many tiny togs shocked them. Ryeka grinned as she gestured to the open door of the mansion. "Let's get in there and give Hinata a hand!"

(0o0o0)

"I'll ask you one last time, where is the bitch?" asked Hinata in a sweet voice that belied the anger she was feeling, as the pile of unconscious guards behind her could attest to. The one guard she was glaring at with her Byakugan was trying to scramble away from the furious kunoichi, having given up all thoughts of trying to subdue her long ago when she caught the bullets from a sub-machine gun before crushing the gun with one hand.

"She's in the basement dungeon!" screamed the guard, a large stain forming between his legs.

"Thank you," said Hinata before her foot lashed out and sent him to sleep. Leaving the guard slumped in a puddle of his own urine, the heiress used her Byakugan to lock onto the chakra signatures farthest down. One slightly higher up caught her eye, a familiar four legged form with two tails. Hurrying down several flights of stairs, Hinata found herself outside a slightly open door and hearing a quiet voice speaking.

"Come on, wake up! You've got to get out of here and find help for your friend or that Nogitsune will break him!" the voice urged.

"Tired, drugs," was Gishou's sleepy reply.

"I know, I had to put the drugs in your food or Kuroten-mesunokitsune (bitch fox) would have known something was up and killed me!" replied the quiet voice.

Hinata opened the door to reveal a bunny youkai kneeling in front of Gishou as he rested on a small pillow. "Move away from the kitsune and I'll let you live, usagi!" growled Hinata, a kunai in hand to act as intimidation.

However, the prop was not needed as the rabbit girl threw herself at Hinata's feet. "Please save him! I only helped the mesunokitsune because she has an usagigari (Rabbit Hunting) spell on me and it will kill me at her whim!"

Hinata frowned at this, since Kyuubi had told her that gari (hunting) spells were like the caged bird seal she hated. The kitsune queen had said that spells were usually placed on a prey creature by cruel kitsune to let the victim know they lived at the fox's pleasure and making them slaves to the fox. Using her Byakugan, Hinata found a target shaped seal on the rabbit girl's back. "Hold still, I think I can remove this," said Hinata. Gathering chakra and miko energy into her hands, Hinata placed them over the mark and said, "Fuuin: Kai!" Immediately, black smoke rose up from beneath Hinata's hands and the rabbit girl's head snapped up in a wordless scream.

(0o0o0)

In the dungeon, Kuroten's head snapped up and she scowled. "Someone released the spell I had on that little rabbit, looks like I'm running out of time!" she said as she glanced down at Naruko. The fox girl was whimpering from the last half hour of stimulation she had been receiving and the Nogitsune knew she had almost broken the blonde. Flicking a piece of paper at the door to the dungeon, the Nogitsune smirked as it started glowing. "That will buy me some more time to finish up with you," she said as she pulled a vibrator from a drawer before pressing it against Naruko's crotch. Naruko started thrashing and moaning from the stimulation and Kuroten laughed. "That's perfect, now worship me and call me queen!" she yelled.

(0o0o0)

Hinata followed Chika (Scatter Flower) as the bunny girl led her towards the dungeon. The usagi youkai had eagerly agreed to show Hinata the way after recovering from having the hunting spell removed. Hinata had been surprised when Chika pulled a bandolier of flasks out and strapped it on. Seeing the pale eyed girl's surprise, Chika had explained how she made up for not being very strong by being an expert in poisons and herbs, which had been the reason Kuroten had hunted her down and enslaved her. The rabbit girl finally came to a stop in front of a door that reeked of pure evil to Hinata. The frame was two evil looking succubi posing lewdly against piles of skulls while above them another demoness floated in midair to present her breasts, each one covered with a single skull. "How nice," muttered Hinata as her Byakugan revealed the barrier sealing the doors shut. "Stand back Chika, this is going to be noisy," said Hinata as she started priming some explosive notes.

(0o0o0)

The whole mansion was rocked by a massive explosion that caused everyone to fall to the ground. "Okay," said Akira as he carefully climbed to his feet, "either Naruto busted out of wherever they were keeping him, he saw Hinata in a death like state and is getting ready to go psycho kitsune on her 'killer', or Hinata got pissed off."

"My money is on option three," said Kimiko.

"And why do you think that?" asked Miyuki.

"No youkai rage aura," replied the dog girl.

(0o0o0)

Hinata scowled as she found the dungeon deserted. She reactivated her Byakugan and found a lone chakra signature behind a door leading out of the room. But it wasn't Naruto or Naruko, so Hinata didn't go charging through the door. Instead, she used a set of explosive notes to send the door rocketing into the figure, only to have it slashed in two.

"Now that wasn't very nice," said Kuroten, who had changed into a black toga with a blood red cloak over her shoulder. Her hair was now piled on top of her head to leave her entire face visible, including thick whisker marks on each cheek the same as Naruto's.

"Neither was kidnapping my fiancé," said Hinata. Kuroten simply laughed haughtily before leaping into the air and landing in a lushly decorated spectator's box. Hinata now noticed the room was set up like an ancient Roman stadium. A cage door at the side of the arena started to rise up, and Hinata could hear roars coming from inside it.

"Get her, my kitties!" exclaimed the Nogitsune as a pride of lions exited their cage and fixed their eyes on Hinata. The whole pride charged towards Hinata, while Chika let out a squeak of fright and leapt up into the arena's seating area.

Hinata calmly flashed through hand seals before yelling, "Suiton: Mizuame Nabara (Syrup Capture Field)!" and spewing a thin sheet of water that caused the lions' paws to stick to it. As the pride struggled, Hinata activated her Byakugan and released killing intent at them while saying, "Kanashibari (Temporary Paralysis) no Jutsu!" The lions instantly stiffened and whimpered. "Get out of here!" ordered Hinata as she released her Mizuame Nabara and pointed towards the door she had come through. The lions scrambled to escape from the scary girl out the door she had blasted open, though one of the younger lionesses took a moment to rub against Hinata in gratitude, causing the heiress to give her a pat on the head as she left.

"Woah!" yelled Akira as the group was forced to jump and avoid the panicking lion pride.

"They were saying something about a scary white eyed lioness," said Miyuki. "Looks like Hinata can be scarier than we thought since those lions don't have any fresh wounds. Not to mention one lioness in particular smelled like she had brushed against Hinata and gotten a gesture of affection."

"Awww, I wanted a bloodbath!" pouted Kuroten before snapping her fingers to summon a legion of gladiators from another gate.

Hinata sighed and suddenly blurred forward before reappearing behind the fighters in a kneeling stance. As she stood up, each of the gladiators exploded in a shower of stone. "Golems are useless against the Bakusai Tenketsu (Breaking Point)," said Hinata in a bored tone as she turned to face a scowling Kuroten. "Now release Naruto-kun or I'll get angry!"

"You presume to dictate orders to me?" growled Kuroten before jumping down to face Hinata in the center of the arena. The kitsune woman reached up and touched the brooch that held her cloak closed and was suddenly dressed a suit of fancy blood red European armor with a black bodysuit underneath. In her hands was a European style sword with a snarling fox head shaped hand guard, but Hinata's eyes could see a series of v-shaped lines running up the blade in the direction of the tip. Hinata settled into a Jyuuken stance, Byakugan active as she watched her opponent.

(0o0o0)

Naruto and Hinata's friends arrived in time to see the two opponents square off, then a rumbling beneath their feet was the only warning before the entrance they had come through rose up to become part of the stadium. A golem above the lush spectator's box Kuroten had occupied was standing by a massive gong and swung a hammer at it. The loud ringing of the gong was only topped by a loud booming voice declaring, "MORTAL KOMBAT!" Apparently Kuroten had a thing for certain video games.

Instantly, Hinata was rushing in, using her experience against Kasei as an estimate to how fast Kuroten was. But unlike when sparring with the past self of Naruto's mother, this time her kitsune opponent was heavily armored and out for blood. However, Hinata was able to use her chakra to allow to 'skate' around Kuroten's attacks and suddenly darted forward with a chakra charged palm raised. Kuroten, however, smirked and Hinata's Byakugan suddenly saw the vixen's sword extend. Hastily performing a Kaiten to defend herself from the unexpected assault, Hinata blasted Kuroten away, though the vixen easily rolled with the force of the blast and landed on her feet with the now elongated sword reaching to her feet, the segments joined by a thick cable running down the middle of the blade. "How do you like my Jadoku (Snake Venom)?" asked Kuroten with a smirk.

"I've seen scarier, Orochimaru's Kusanagi no Tsurugi made him look meaner and he was simply a fifty year old man obsessed with little boys," replied Hinata. Hanging out with Naruto had taught her long ago the notorious art of bashing someone, hit them where it hurts, and Kuroten was obviously proud of her looks and weapon.

Kuroten's smirk turned into a clenched tooth snarl as she growled out, "I'm going to enjoy ripping the flesh from your bones little bitch! I've already broken Kyuubi's little brat and you'll make a fine present for the Sandaime Raikage!"

"Hmmm, was that the sound of constipation I heard? Because all I heard was shit from an ugly hag," countered Hinata, causing her friends to stare at her wide eyed due to the vulgar language she used. However, the taunt had its desired effect as Kuroten screamed in fury and charged Hinata, her sword a glittering storm of small blades looking to slash Hinata apart. The Hyuuga heiress weaved, ducked, and rolled through the attack and came up right inside Kuroten's guard with a Jyuuken blow to the heart. However, the kitsune didn't collapse and Hinata was the one who cried out in pain before pushing all her chakra to her legs to help her leap high above Kuroten and avoid the spikes on the vixen's armored legs as Kuroten tried to kick the pale eyed girl in the stomach. Hinata examined her hand, noting that it felt like it had been sunburned. "You've got youki flowing through that armor?" she guessed.

"Ooohhh, a smart little girl!" cooed Kuroten, "I heard about the Hyuuga from Perro, this armor won't let any of your fancy Taijutsu through!"

"What about this?" asked Hinata's voice from behind Kuroten before the kitsune felt a blow to the back that sent her crashing face first into the wall. "I may not be her full time student like the others, but I've learned from Konoha's greatest Kunoichi, our Godaime Hokage Tsunade of the Densetsu no Sannin!"

Kuroten pulled herself from the wall and scowled at Hinata before gasping as cracks spread across her armor before it shattered, leaving her in what looked more like a swimsuit with hip armor. "What did you do, you little slut?" growled the kitsune as she resummoned her cape to give herself some more clothing.

"Bakusai Tenketsu with my whole fist, your armor is useless now. I'm prepared to do anything it takes to beat you and free Naruto-kun!" declared Hinata before coughing up some blood. "When did you?" she gasped.

"My Jakudo is razor sharp, you never even noticed I landed a few blows to your back!" taunted Kuroten as she reconnected her sword to show several bloodstained blade segments which she promptly licked clean.

"Bring it on, granny!" yelled Hinata.

"I don't think so," said Kuroten with a smirk. "You say you'd do anything to free Naruto?" The black vixen snapped her fingers once more and another gate opened. "How about fighting her?" asked the kitsune as a red shrouded figure appeared in the gate. It was Naruko, but her rear legs had turned into those of a fox, causing her to walk on all fours. The whites of her eyes had become blood red, while her whisker marks were as thick as a thumb. But what chilled Hinata to the bone was that her beloved's eyes didn't seem to recognize her. "It took me some time, but I finally broke her and now she's going to subdue you and your friends. Perro will get a good price for the lot of you!"

"Lady, you're crazy!" yelled Akira as he prepared to leap down and help Hinata, only for the black kitsune to hit a button in her spectator box. Lightning instantly flashed along the seats, stunning all of the watching teens before they could make a move.

"No comments from the peanut gallery," said Kuroten before looking at Naruko. "Destroy them my pet!"

Once again, the mysterious announcer's voice rang out, "FINISH HER!"

Naruko started bounding towards the petrified Hinata, gaining more and more speed until it was hard to Hinata to keep track of her. Hinata was surprised she was able to block the thrusting claw attack Naruko made at her, grasping the blonde kitsune's wrist with both arms. Still, Hinata was pushed back a bit and found herself looking right into Naruko's eyes. So she was the only one to see Naruko's eyes turn back to normal before the fox girl grinned and winked.

Using her trapped arm as a pivot, Naruko spun around Hinata and launched blades of fire and wind chakra at Kuroten with a cry of, "Tobi Kaen Tsume (Flying Flame Claw)!" The Nogitsune had a moment to stare in surprise before she leaped clear of her spectator's box and landed in the arena.

"How did you break my brain washing you little slut?" she yelled, gripping her sword as she did so.

Naruko smirked as she nuzzled Hinata. "Oh, the aphrodisiac is still in me, it's all I can do to keep from jumping Hinata-chan here and going through the rest of the night. But the brainwashing didn't take because I've got voices in my head that kept me from going crazier!"

"That doesn't make any sense," muttered Kimiko as she twitched in the arena seats. "But then again, that's totally normal for Naruto."

Naruko raised her hand and a Rasengan formed in her palm before one side started growing longer and sharpening to a point even as the whole thing shrank. "Rasenfukiya (Spiral Dart)!" yelled Naruko as she launched the ice cream cone shaped Rasengan at Kuroten, who dodged to the side of the attack and saw a foot long hole drilled in the arena wall by the spiral bullet.

"Kaisakukou (Free cutting steel)!" roared Kuroten as she twisted the handle of Jakudo and caused the blade segments to separate before hovering around her and then shooting towards Naruko and Hinata point first.

"Hari Jizō (Needle Guardian)!" proclaimed Naruko as her tails and hair lengthened to enclose Hinata and her in a shield of steel like fox hair. The nogitsune's attack bounced off the spiky defense and Naruko charged out of the temporary shield with her eyes fixed on her Nogitsune opponent.

Kuroten used the handle and cable of her sword as a whip and started creating a shield of steel with a cry of, "Kanaami (wire screen)!"

Naruko smirked as she danced between the furiously lashing steel cable and cried, "Ryūjin Jakka (Flowing Blade like Flame)!" as she moved, a blade of dancing flame appearing in each of her hands to block the wire attacks. Fearing the blonde's dual blades, Kuroten recalled the blades that made up Jakudo and reformed her sword. Flame met steel as the two kitsune clashed, only for Naruko dismiss one of her flame blades and instantly form a Rasengan and jam it into Kuroten's stomach. The jutsu sent the Nogitsune through the air and into the arena wall, where she slumped unconscious in the crater her impact created.

“Hinata and Naruko win” the booming voice declared.

"Ok, me tired, need sleepies," mumbled Naruko as she started to collapse, only to be caught by Hinata.

"Naruko-chan, you're too much," she said with a smile as their friends gathered around them, only to spring to defensive stances as an explosion created a new entrance to the arena. Black clad figures rushed into the room and took up positions guarding the door.

One of the black clad people raised their hands to a head set and said, "This is team 2, we have located Uzumaki-san in female form and her friends!" while another, obviously female team member if the figure hugging body suit was to believed, moved towards the group of teens while holding a first aid kit.

"Are any of you injured?" she asked. Now that she was close enough, the teens could see a patch on her shoulder depicting a winged parachute over a diamond in front of a wreath.

"Woah, JGSDF SFG (Japanese Ground Self Defense Special Forces Group)!" gasped Ryeka as the woman tended to the cuts on Hinata's back and another pulled a jacket out for Naruko and helped Hinata get the kitsune girl covered up when she proved unable to dress herself.

"Commander on the deck, attention!" yelled a voice and the teens all witnessed the special force troops standing at attention. To the teens' surprise, the man that entered the room next was very familiar.

"Otou-san?" gasped Akira and Miyuki as they stared at their father in a lightweight armored combat suit bearing the SFG emblem on the shoulder.

"Yes, JSDF realized my skills would be useful for a special operations leader. I'm the leader of one of two teams that specializes in counter terrorist activities. If you'll follow me, my commander will debrief you so we can all go home," said Ranma.

"Does mom know?" asked Akira.

"Yes, and when she heard you kids would be here it was all I could do to keep her at the house, now come on!" said Ranma. He led them back up into Kuroten's mansion, where they were escorted to the dining room Naruto had dinner in. There, they found Sailor Saturn standing beside the chair at the head of the table, while the chair had its back to them. However, the red armored sleeves told the group who it was even before the chair turned to reveal Kenshin with his Crimson Dragon helm resting on his lap.

"Everyone have a seat, this will take a bit of explaining. And Hinata, can you possibly jog Naruko into a more alert state?" requested Kenshin. Hinata pulled a soldier pill from her supply pouch and gently put it to Naruko's lips, causing the kitsune to chew and swallow it. Naruko almost immediately became more alert, but she insisted on moving a chair next to Hinata's seat so she could lean against her fiancé. "I'll be quick in consideration of how late it is. You kids are all of the mindset that you can handle things yourselves and that's true. However, recently you've found yourselves in over your heads a few times lately and you need some help. So, I propose an arrangement: if you need help, you can call us and we'll make sure things don't get out of hand. Luckily, Nerima is one of Japan's wards with a 'don't touch' policy, but if you're outside the ward you might have to deal with police or even the army if things get serious. In that case, please use these to call my office and they'll help smooth things out." At this point Kenshin slid a sleek black cell phone to each teen. "They're encrypted for talking to one another and to my office, and the best thing is your parents don't have to pay a cent. Ryeka, feel free to trick yours out, but don't mess with the encryption programs." Ryeka blushed lightly at this before returning her attention to browsing the phone's features. "I'll let you kids get back home now, and Ryeka? No more sudden flights, we had a hard time convincing JASDF that we were doing a raid on this complex with an experimental stealth plane. Luckily, we've wanted to get in for a few years so they bought it. Thanks to you kids we've broken a major slave trafficking ring and gotten some drugs Perro was running on the side. Speaking of the little bastard, he managed to slip away through a bolt passage. He's a vindictive type, he might come after you all again, so be on your guard from now on. Commander Saotome, please escort them back to your residence!" Ranma nodded and lead the kids to Kuroten's limo, which had been commandeered for this trip. Inside, Naruko promptly put her head down on Hinata's lap and started dozing, while her friends chatted softly.

"There's one thing that's bothering me," said Miyuki suddenly, causing everyone to look at her. "Why are Naruko's legs like that and is it permanent?"

One of Naruko's eyes cracked open and she mumbled, "Kuroten forced a partial transformation on me, she commented that it would fade in a few hours so the Tsuchikage would get me as I normally look and not half an animal." The rest of the group nodded, the trip to their homes and the exciting evening leaving them tired. As they dropped off Kimiko, Naurko's feet returned to human form and Hinata had to give her another soldier pill to keep her from passing out.

Naruko and Hinata had barely gotten inside and were being fussed over by Hoshiko when the door opened to reveal a tired looking Jiraiya carrying a bag in one hand and a giant folder in the other. "What the heck happened to you two?" he asked before noticing the bruises on Naruko's back Hoshiko was tending to with Hinata's cream. Jiraiya could recognize whip marks easily and his next words seemed to freeze the air. "Who is the bastard who did this to you Naruko? I'll rip his balls off, stuff them down his throat, and then sew his mouth shut before beating him to a pulp!"

"It was a Nogitsune vixen," said Hinata as she helped Naruko into a sleeping yukata.

Jiraiya's eyes narrowed and he said, "You skinned her alive, right?"

"No, she was arrested and is being taken to a facility capable of containing her," said Hinata, remembering what Kenshin had told them.

Kuroten groaned and slowly sat up, aware she was not in her luxurious room with a slave pleasuring her awake. Instead she found herself in a cell that had a toilet, small sink, single table and chair, and a bookcase with a few books on it. But the worse insult to Kuroten was the hideous bright orange prison jumpsuit that did nothing to flatter her figure. Furious, she stormed up to the bars of her cell, grabbing them and preparing to rip them out of the concrete. Instead, she was blasted by a wave of miko power and thrown back to her bed.

"Give it up, all the cells in here are warded with seals carved into the bars and ofuda placed in the walls during construction," said a voice. Kuroten looked up at the familiar tone and smirked as she saw a black Nogitsune with nine tails and a tattoo of two canine fangs with blood on them on the arm his jumpsuit sleeve was rolled up to show.

"Hello, little brother," she said. "I heard you and your friends were beaten by Kyuubi's brat, but seeing you here means it was true."

Gin snorted and said, "Yeah, and according to the guards you got beat by his girl form and that little white-eyed slut."

"If I could get to you I'd tear you in half!" roared Kuroten. Gin simply smirked at her before turning back to the book he was reading.

"Okay, but this is suspicious, two Nogitsune going after Naruto in particular so quickly," said Jiraiya.

"Nogitsune are scum, they'll do anything to sate their desires," said Naruko with a yawn.

"We'll talk later," said Jiraiya. "You two get to bed, I'm calling the school and saying you're both sick tomorrow!"

"Hai," mumbled Naruko as Hinata helped her stand up. The Hyuuga girl kept the kitsune's arm over her shoulder as she led Naruko to her room, where Gishou was already resting on a pillow.

"Goodnight Naruko-chan," said Hinata, only to feel Naruko cling to her.

"Don't wanna be alone," muttered Naruko sleepily. Hinata sighed but helped the kitsune to her own room, where they lay down together in the bed after Hinata changed into her own yukata.

(0o0o0)

Later that night, Hinata woke up and found herself alone in the bed, though the soft padding of footsteps told her Naruko hadn't been gone long and was heading towards the bathroom. When the footsteps returned but rapidly passed the doorway and headed outside, Hinata slipped out of her bed and quietly followed. She found Naruko making hand seals before pressing her hands against the ground. "Kitsune Doton: Takotsubo (Fox Earth Style: Fox Hole) no jutsu," whispered Naruko, causing a staircase to descend into the ground. Hinata followed Naruko down and found her fiancé standing in the middle of a modest bedroom with a comfy bed. Naruko made her way to the bed, removing her yukata on the way, before climbing on top and taking a deep breath. "Here goes," she muttered. "Damn Kuroten, this aphrodisiac is driving me crazy!" gasped Naruko as she started to move her hand between her legs, only to feel a pair of breasts pressed against her back and Hinata's hands holding hers.

"I don't think you want to do that, Naruko-chan," said Hinata.

"Hinata, I HAVE to! If I don't get some relief I'm going to go crazy and be a nymphomaniac for the rest of my life!" sobbed Naruko.

"I meant you shouldn't just rush into this," said Hinata as she kissed the kitsune girl's cheek. "Sharp claws and inexperience don't seem to end with a pretty picture to me, do they?" Naruko paled at the thought of accidentally clawing herself. "Let me help you Naruko-chan!"

"You'd do that for me?" whispered Naruko.

"You're as much a part of Naruto-kun now as he is, after seeing how Ranma-sensei and Akane-sensei act together it's clear Akane-sensei has accepted Ranma-sensei's female half as there to stay," replied Hinata as she hugged her fiancé.

"Hinata-chan," whispered Naruko as tears threatened to spill out of her eyes, only to have Hinata kiss them away.

(LEMON BEGINS IF YOU'RE OFFENDED BY YURI, SKIP TO THE NEXT SCENE BREAK)

"First of all, you need to be gentle with this," said Hinata as she gently ran a finger along Naruko's neatly trimmed slit. "You need to learn what you like so you can get the most out of it."

"I see," gasped Naruko as Hinata's free hand rose up and started kneading the kitsune's right breast.

"Just relax, I'll help you out," Hinata whispered into Naruko's furry ear before gently blowing in it.

"Hinataaaa," moaned Naruko as the stimulation of breast, ear, and lower lips was enough to give her the very first orgasm she'd ever experienced. Naruto had, of course, had wet dreams of Hinata before and sought relief for himself several times, but that had been relatively simple, simply grab and stroke. With Hinata's hands taking care of everything, Naruko was free to experience all of the new feelings and it was not much of a surprise that she didn't last long. Her scream of passion as she came for the first time echoed through the fox den and Hinata was amazed, since it had only been light stimulation. But her hand was covered in the evidence of Naruko's release.

"Feel better?" asked Hinata gently as she climbed around in front of Naruko.

"Need more," gasped Naruko, "the damn aphrodisiac is still in my system and driving me crazy."

Hinata giggled at the blonde's begging look and hugged her, "Relax, let Hinata-chan take care of you," she said before kissing Naruko on the lips and pressing her down on the bed. Hinata's face was flushed as she remembered studying the seduction manual Anko had forced on her soon after the Chunin exams. The Snake Mistress had made all of her female charges read the manual and tested them on all the erogenous zones of male and female bodies, much to their embarrassment. But Hinata admitted that reading the manual made the nights she fantasized about Naruto MUCH better.

"Oh, Kami-sama!" moaned Naruko as Hinata's finger slipped inside her. Any further comments were lost in a haze of happy growls the kitsune made as Hinata added another finger and continued rubbing. Naruko's eyes widened as Hinata's mouth descended and latched onto an erect nipple. "UWAAAAAHHHH!" screamed the kitsune before she came, drenching Hinata's hand for the second time.

Hinata smiled at her fiancé as Naruko just lay on the bed panting. Gently pulling her hand out of the kitsune, the Hyuuga girl couldn't resist the temptation to bring it up to her face and lick it clean in front of her lover. Amazingly, the sight caused Naruko to orgasm immediately, which made Hinata giggle. "You're so cute, Naruko-chan," said Hinata as she snuggled up to the kitsune.

"And you're gorgeous," mumbled Naruko as she nuzzled Hinata's chest.

"Finally regained coherency?" asked Hinata with a smile.

"Yeah, Naruto managed to beat down the lust aspect the aphrodisiac created in our mind while it was paralyzed from the orgasms you gave me," said Naruko with a smile that quickly turned into a smirk. "Now it's my turn to return the favor!" With that, Naruko pounced on Hinata and lightly pinned her to the bed. Hinata gasped as Naruko's breath stimulated her already soaked lower lips. "You were so nice to me Hinata-hime, but you neglected yourself," said Naruto as her tongue lightly licked Hinata.

"Naruko-chan," whispered Hinata before Naruko's tongue entered her most sacred place. Hinata was enjoying the tongue massage, but her pleasure skyrocketed when Naruko channeled chakra to her tongue before brushing it against Hinata's clitoris, causing the Hyuuga girl to orgasm instantly with a scream of surprise and delight while Naruko lapped up the juices she released. "Where did you learn how to do that?" demanded Hinata when she recovered from the pleasure overload.

"Let's just say mom was really loud right after Kudora freed her from that soul dagger and I heard stuff that would make Jiraiya pass out," replied Naruko with a blush.

"Woah, I don't think I'm up for more tonight," muttered Hinata as Naruko channeled some youki and chakra into the bed, instantly cleaning the sheets.

"Yeah, same here," murmured Naruko before her tails handed Hinata her sleeping yukata while pulling her own on.

"Thank you Naruko-chan," said Hinata as she slipped on the garment before kissing her fiancé goodnight. Both girls snuggled under the covers with their arms wrapped around one another.

"They alright?" Jiraiya asked Hoshiko as the housekeeper returned to the house.

The kitsune woman nodded, pouring herself a cup of tea. "While I don't approve of two kits who are so young being together like that, I do understand your reasoning of 'Old enough to kill, old enough to drink and have fun,' but I draw the line at Naruto actually sleeping with Hinata. Kyuubi-sama gave me very strict instructions about that!"

Jiraiya waved his hand as he sipped his own tea, saying, "Relax, I won't push for that, even though the kid would love the experience. They're not ready for that level in their relationship." Privately, Jiraiya was wondering how long Hinata would be able to resist jumping Naruto and making him a man.

(0o0o0)

When the teens returned to school after their day to recover, murmurs flew around the school about how Naruko was practically hanging off of Hinata's arm and both girls seemed to be glowing. When an angry Naruto made an appearance at gym class, Inuyasha found all his classmates besides Akira, Jason, and Zenith with atomic wedgies stuck to the locker room wall with kunai. When asked to explain this, Naruto said, "They asked if I was 'banging my sister and Hinata!' so I explained it was none of their business!" Inuyasha sent the few sane boys to have fun playing laser tag while he gave their hormone driven classmates a severe tongue lashing.

(0o0o0)

"Naruto, we need to talk," said Jiraiya as soon as the fox boy entered the house with Hinata. Wordlessly handing Hinata his book bag, the kitsune followed Jiraiya to the sennin's room, where the Gamma Sennin used a seal array to block out Hinata's Byakugan and any other advanced senses. "Now the information I got last night is mostly related to you, but you can share it with Hinata and your friends if you think they need to know, but I wanted to tell it to you in private," explained Jiraiya as he set a manila folder on the low table he used for writing. "According to my sources, there is a group called Shichinan (The Seven Misfortunes of Buddhism) comprised of seven kitsune. Each one represents a different sin of human kind. I started looking into things like this when you got that challenge letter on the first day of school, but the group is secretive and the connection between Gin and them was well hidden. I don't know the real names of any of the members besides Gin at the moment, but I do know they're all Ankoku's kits and after you so one of them will have a chance to claim the title of Kyuubi. My contact did give me one picture of one of the more publicly recognized members, if you ever see her, run like the hounds of hell are after you!" With this Jiraiya passed Naruto a photo, which the blond kitsune flipped over, only to see Kuroten's face smirking at him.

"That's the bitch who tricked and drugged me!" yelled Naruto.

Jiraiya immediately pulled out a notebook and crossed out several items. "My editor suggested her as a cover model for the next Icha Icha book, going to have to say that's a no go," muttered the super pervert before snapping the book closed. "Well, she was Lust and Gin was Wrath. I know the top two in the group are Envy and Pride, but they're not public figures at all, almost nothing is known about them except rumors. But they aren't the kind to draw attention to themselves, they'll probably wait and observe their siblings' battles with you to learn your weaknesses. So be careful."

"Got it, Sensei," said Naruto, who immediately left to tell Hinata the bad news. "As if Akatsuki and dealing with High School weren't enough," muttered the kitsune as he walked towards the Saotome Dojo.

And that's a wrap. As you probably know if you have me on author alert, my Grandfather on my dad's side died at the start of March. Sadly, my mom's mother passed away from cancer at the start of April. I'm amazed I managed to get this out as fast as I did. I'll try to write more during the summer. I'm also going to be at Fanime this year, just look for the Konoha ninja with the Handy Haversack and Bag of Holding.
