Extra 17: To Love Ruto (35)

"Haruna?" - Naruto said in surprise because something strange had happened to his friend, even her scent was different.

"Haruna? No, my name is Shizu Murasame, but you can call me Oshizu" - replied Haruna with a small smile.

"Come to think of it, wasn't that the ghost girl's name?" - Lala asked as she watched Naruto's face pale at the mention of the paranormal entity.

"Wait! Are you actually saying that a ghost is possessing my girlfriend's body!" - Rito exclaimed in surprise and terror.

"Now that you mention it" - muttered Oshizu while frowning - "I haven't felt so alive in 400 years!"

"That's not funny!" - exclaimed Rito as he noticed how the ghost that was in his girlfriend's body, backed away - "I'm sorry, it's just that I'm worried about Sairenji."

"No, you don't have to apologize" - replied Oshizu as she sighed sadly - "I know there are a lot of people who don't like me."

"Well done, Rito, you made a girl sad" - Naruto said as he regained his calm.

"I... Ugh, ok, sorry" - sighed Rito as he watched as Oshizu smiled - "Although now I have just one question, how do we get Oshizu-san out of Sairenji's body?"

"That... is an excellent question" - Naruto said as he looked at his friend's girlfriend - "Any ideas?"

"No, this is the first time I've ever possessed another person's body" - Oshizu replied as she frowned - "So I don't have the slightest idea how to get out of here, sorry."

"This has to be a bad joke" - muttered Rito, who looked like he was about to explode.

"Do you think Kurama papa knows what to do?" - Lala asked as she looked at her fiancé.

"It's possible, and if he doesn't know, it's possible that Mikado sensei knows" - answered Naruto as he watched Rito run to the teacher's room next to Haruna, who was blushing - "Did you see that?"

"Yes" - nodded Lala with a small smile - "Such looks like Rito will have more problems".

Naruto just let out a laugh not knowing that after his "vacation" was over, he too would have a lot more problems than he thought.

"Today is a quiet day" - Kurama said as he drank some coffee and picked up a book - "Not to mention that the writers on this planet are interesting."

Kurama was concentrating on his reader that he didn't hear the door to the teacher's lounge open.

"Kurama sensei!" - Rito exclaimed with concern.

Kurama raised an eyebrow when he heard how he was being called, more so when he noticed it was someone familiar - "Rito, what's wrong?"

"We're in trouble!" - Rito exclaimed as he did a quick recount of what had happened.

Kurama was surprised to hear about the ghost girl, so he decided to do a quick investigation. He quickly grabbed the embarrassed girl's wrist and used his chakra to feel some change inside her, which he accomplished after a few seconds - "Interesting, I can feel a strange concentration of energy right in the center of her chest."

"Oh, that's the place where my soul is, I think" - Oshizu replied while tilting her head - "By the way, your energy is warm."

"Thank you" - said Kurama with a small smile, then looking at Rito - "As for the problem, I think I know how to solve it, although I don't know if it's a good idea or not."

"Can you help us?" - Rito asked with concern because he didn't know what kind of consequences Oshizu being in his girlfriend's body would have.

"I can, although I would like you to go talk to Ryoko first to see if she has a better solution" - replied Kurama seriously - "If she has no way to help you, come back"

"Wouldn't it be easier for you to help us?" - Oshizu asked as she cocked her head to one side, confused by the white-haired man's attitude.

"I could, but my way to help you would be to practically rip your soul out of Haruna-chan's body, and I don't know if I'll just take out your soul or both of you" - Kurama answered honestly.

"Oh" - Rito nodded weakly because now he understood the professor's motives - "Ok, let's go, Oshizu-san."

"Hai!" - Oshizu exclaimed as she felt her cheeks blush as she was pulled by Rito while they were holding hands.

Kurama raised an eyebrow before shrugging and going back to his reading.

After a few minutes, Rito returned with Haruna next to a strange blurry silhouette.

"I see things went well without me intervening" - Kurama said with a smile.

"Y-Yes" - nodded Rito as he remembered how everything had ended in the strangest way possible - "I didn't know ghosts had fears too."

"Dogs are scary!" - Oshizu exclaimed as if silhouetted became more blurry.

"Does it have to do with the trauma of your death?" - Kurama asked curiously.

"N-No, since I was very young I've been afraid of dogs" - Oshizu answered honestly as she shook her head.

"Oh, I see" - nodded Kurama calmly - "So, you just came to tell me that everything had gone well?"

"Yes, although there is something else I'd like to ask you" - replied Rito with concern.

"Speak" - said Kurama while raising an eyebrow.

"I want to know if it's possible to give a mortal body to Oshizu-san" - replied Rito as he looked at the strange silhouette behind him and his girlfriend - "It seems a bit unfair to me that someone like her died so young."

"Hmm, I'm not sure" - Kurama replied as he started to think - "I mean, it's possible, but I'm not sure how things will end up."

A few weeks later...

"Ugh, I'm hungry" - muttered Tearju Lunatique, the beautiful blonde woman who was looking at the picture of her next to a girl very similar to her, one that was very familiar to the Uzumaki family - "Lunatique, I need to know how much more time we need to get to Earth."

[One week, Master Tearju]

"And how long will I be able to hold out without being able to eat?" - Tearju asked as she grabbed her stomach.

[After doing some quick calculations and checking her biosignals, I can assure you that it will be about two to three universal days.]

"Ugh, any solutions other than eating my clothes?" - Tearju asked tearfully - "I curse those idiots who keep chasing me!"

[Analyzing... analysis completed... could make contact with the ship approaching our location, according to the log this ship has been assigned to Deviluke's royalty]

"Royalty?!" - Tearju exclaimed in surprise as she ordered a quick report.

The ship's AI. began sending a myriad of information to Tearju, who quickly smiled as she saw that the ship did not have Gid's registration - "This is good, contact the ship immediately, I'm almost completely sure it has to be the princesses going to see their big sister."

[Your orders have been received, initiating contact protocol... awaiting response...]

* * * * *

"Is someone trying to contact us?" - Momo said with surprise before frowning - "Strange no one knows we're going to Earth, not even our father."

"What do we do, Momo?" - Nana asked as she looked at her sister because in situations like this, she was best suited to take the lead.

"Hmm, let's see what you wish, after that we can see what to do" - replied Momo as she answered the call from the nearby ship.

[Greetings, princesses of Deviluke, my name is Tearju, a traveler who is out of supplies in order to reach Earth.]

"Tearju? I remember hearing that name somewhere" - muttered Momo as she frowned and tried to remember where she had heard this name before.

"Isn't it too much of a coincidence that this strange woman goes to the same planet as us?" - Nana asked quietly, so the unknown woman wouldn't hear them.

"Earth is becoming a popular place thanks to Onee-sama's presence" - replied Momo with boredom - "So I wouldn't be surprised if some people would try to approach Naruto Uzumaki to try to create a connection with the future emperor of the universe."

"Are you seriously saying that this woman is trying to steal Anee-ue's fiancé?" - Nana asked with a frown as she shot a cold glare at the woman on the screen.

"Hmm, I don't think that's the motive, although we can't rule out that possibility" - replied Momo while shaking her head - "Anyway, she doesn't seem like someone dangerous, that's why I think maybe it's a good idea to help her."

"Are you sure?" - Nana asked as she looked at her sister.

"We can know more about her and her target if we talk directly, not to mention that I don't think she would lie to us" - replied Momo as a huge smile appeared on her lips - "Don't you think so too, Nana-chan ~?"

"O-Of course" - nodded Nana firmly, not noticing how her sister was smiling at her.

"You're so easy to manipulate, Nana-chan ~" - thought Momo as she watched the unknown ship approaching - "Hmm, from the tiny size of that ship, it's obvious that it's a one-person ship, so we don't have to worry about someone else's attack."
