Chapter 017

Well, if you want to continue living. Rias commented. - Or I'll let Akeno teach you a lesson, Na- Ru-To-kun. - She spelled his name, receiving a pale look from the blonde who quickly removed his hand.

- Oh, how boring. - Akeno murmured. - I thought I could reach orgasm with your screams of pain this time...

Naruto looked at her and then gently said.

- Could you please find a cold, dark place, and die? He asked. Now, because they woke me up... It's still early. He looked at the watch on his wrist. - It's only 7pm.

It's not 7pm in the afternoon. commented. Koneko

If you say. The blonde shrugged, as he prepared to pass his hand over his sweaty face, only for something fuzzy to pass first. Thank you... Eh... Tail?! He shouted in fright, before looking at his tail... His tail?! - Agnrh!

He shouted a few incomprehensible words before getting up and trying to run away from the tail, only for it to remain glued to him.

What is this, Rias-chan!? An evil prank?! - He asked, angrily. It was you, wasn't it Issei?! I said I was going to kill you and I forgave you and this is how you treat me?!

Agh! It was not me! I-I swear! The brunette shouted, as he saw Rias get between the blonde and him.

- What is this, Rias-chan!? An evil prank?! - He asked, angrily. It was you, wasn't it Issei?! I said I was going to kill you and I forgave you and this is how you treat me?!

-Agh! It was not me! I-I swear! The brunette shouted, as he saw Rias get between the blonde and him.

- Calm down Naruto, it wasn't one of us. - She commented. When we got here she was already in you.

Naruto blinked, before walking away.

So... Is this mine? - He grabbed the tail. So... If - I do this... - He squeezed and twisted his tail, only for a bolt of terrible pain to take over his body. Naruto screamed in pain as his body convulsed and he fell to the ground. He dropped his tail. - Ahh! It hurts~!

-Ah... That was so beautiful~! - Akeno muttered, before walking up to the blonde and trying to grab his tail. Please, just one more~!

-Y-You stay away! Heartless demon from hell! - The blonde accused, as he quickly stood up and walked away.

But Akeno followed quickly, forcing him into corners while staring at him with a look clouded with pleasure. The eyes are unfocused and the tongue is slowly removed from the half-open mouth. She had a light sweat and a clearly pleased look.

R-Rias-chan! P-For the love of holy hell, whatever! Take her away from me! - The blonde asked.

Rias sighed... These two were crazy, that's for sure!

- So... Naruto-kun, do you have any idea what that tail does stuck to you? Rias asked the blonde, who strangely looked at himself in the body mirror, enjoying the feeling of having a tail.

- ... If I had a pretty little dress I could pretend I was a Pop-Star or something... He murmured in his own world. - Anh... What did you say, Rias? - He blinked innocently, as he turned to talk to the girl.

-... Do you have any idea why you have a tail? - She asked, not so patiently. They had work to do, for Lucifer's sake!

- No... Actually, I have an idea... He held the tail and looked at it, calmly evaluating it. I had a friend who had a tail... His brothers too... This is like a mixture of their tail... It's... Strange, I don't know why I have it... He commented, looking at her. The fox tail was certainly the same as Kurama... But he didn't have anything but the fox on his body, while the tattoos on his tail were the same as Shukaku's, Ichibe.

"Well... Could it be that this tail was manifestation of the previous power I had? I mean... I had the chakra of all the Bijuus mixed in me, so could this be the manifestation of that power?" He asked himself, before something popped into his mind. "Do I have Shukaku's power?" - Focusing his attention on the tip of the tail, the blonde noticed a slight change... Sand began to appear in small quantities at the tip of it.

A small, sad smile appeared on his face. There was one thing he hadn't told Rias... He didn't remember how he died.

And so countless questions arose in his mind.

Where was Kurama if their souls were bound by the Shinigami's seal? Why did he have this power? It was remnants of the fourth ninja war when all the ninjas lent him their chakra... Or... Maybe it was a parting gift?

But that wasn't all his sad smile... That tail... It reminded him of Kurama, then of Gaara and all his old friends. What happened to that world? What happened to them all? Were they alive in this world with him, were they still going to be born or had they already

died? Could it be... That someday he would see them again?

- Naruto-kun... He heard Rias call behind him. - Everything is fine?

He turned away, hiding his sad smile.

Yes, yes, I... I only had a slight idea of what it could be. He said, before saying: - Maybe it was a gift from some old friends. I don't think it's anything to worry about, if it makes you happy... It just means I've become stronger.

Rias smiled.

- And so? I'm happy then. She commented. - Now can we go? We have a devil to kill.

Clear! He ran to the door and opened it for the redhead. - Ladies First.

- Thanks! - The redhead passed happily.

(---)

Naruto observed the abandoned warehouse in front of him with a curious gaze. The rest of the nobility stood beside him, all led by Rias and preparing to enter.

-So... Is the lost devil in there? He asked, calmly. Because a warehouse, like... I know you're running away, but... That's kind of boring. I thought we would have to infiltrate a luxury hotel where a devil lured his victims with promises of money and everything.
