"You are an idiot!"

"For once I agree with Rias, Naruto-kun."

"B-but…"

~Bonk!~

Naruto fell to the ground, his watery eyes twinkling as Akeno's fist connected with his head. "You are so mean, Akeno" his baby face combined with his watery eyes did the work.

Akeno immediately crouched beside him, her hands already working on the small bump bulging on his hand. "I'm so sorry, Naruto-kun!" She whimpered. "I really didn't mean to hurt you, I swear" the concern and remorse in her voice were as apparent as the whiskers on his cheeks.

"Don't say sorry to him, Akeno. He is stupid!" Rias from the other side of the room called out to her queen. What was she doing? Why was she saying sorry to him? "He brought those two without even telling us anything!" Her piercing blue eyes prompted the boy to whirl his head away from her.

It has been four hours since Naruto released Azazel and Gabriel from his cage and escorted them to one of the unoccupied houses that were scattered throughout the area, although that one was rather far from where they were all staying.

That's right, "they".

Akeno had essentially demanded that Naruto move in with her because, in her own words, 'They are too dangerous and I need to protect you'. Naruto privately thought that it was the other way round around, and that she wanted him as protection from them.

He didn't really mind moving in with such a beautiful girl; any straight man would jump at the chance. It's just that he was slightly annoyed with the fact that he had just recently finished unpacking his belongings and now he had to repack them and transfer them to the shrine.

Rias, having the same idea as Akeno, also decided to move in with them, much to Akeno's chagrin. However, she settled in rather easily due to her devil magic being able to transport items with ease, something that Naruto thought was quite bullshit due to its flexibility.

He pointedly ignored his own bullshittery in the form of the Rinnegan.

"I didn't know they were your enemies Rias. Angel-chan never told… Oww oww!"

Akeno ignored the squeals of pain as her fingers continued to squeeze the life out of his cheek.

"Now why are you pinching my cheeks, Akeno? I was just telling Angel-chan… oww oww," he couldn't complete his statement again.

Rias sighed. It was odd to see Akeno being so possessive about something. "Leave him, Akeno. He doesn't know Gabriel's name" she said.

"No."

"Excuse me?" The Gremory blinked.

Akeno said nothing, instead, she just squeezed his cheeks more harshly. For once she could even forgive him for bringing that monster Azazel into their new home, but she could never forgive him for calling that woman Angel-chan in front of her. That was something that irritated her to no end.

Naruto looked back and forth between Rias and Akeno. What were they talking about? Him not knowing Gabriel's name? Surely, they wouldn't make such a big deal out of that right?

'Woah' realization finally dawned on him. "Akeno is jealous!" He didn't mean to say it loud but at that moment his mind wasn't functioning properly because of the pain.

A full-blown blush glossed Akeno's cheeks. "I'm not jealous" she tried to argue, more with herself than him, but failed miserably when the blush kept increasing.

"Aww, come here" She was not ready for an abrupt hug from Naruto, and the warmth he brought with himself didn't help her in any way either. It was quick, faster than a blink of an eye, her body tensed for a second before melting in the warmth. Fingers quivering, she placed them on his back and felt him shiver too.

"Why are you jealous?" The fingers gripped the jacket more fiercely and judging by his reaction, he felt her uncertainty rise too. "Akeno" her breath hitched when she heard him whisper her name. His tone was as warm as the kindling fire of her shrine's backyard.

"Yes?" was that water in her eyes? She didn't know, and had no plans to find out about it. Tears were something she loathed the most. These warm pearls of liquid reminded her of those awful red drops that stained her mother's corpse.

"You don't have to be jealous of anyone, you know" She felt like melting in his arms again. The way he spoke those words of his was something disastrous yet incredible at the same time. They made her heart flutter, with both sorrow and euphoria, something she had thought she would never experience concurrently.

"For me, you are still the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. The boys here in this world will die just to catch a glimpse of your face" his laughter may have failed to lighten up her mood but as soon as he ruffled her hair, a strange yet potent emotion swarmed inside the holes of her heart, filling them with nothing but the love she had begun to feel for him.

Slowly, she fanned the veil from her violet eyes and glanced at his face. 'Naruto' He was smiling, smiling warmly at her, only at her. At that moment, his smile belonged to her, no one else, not even Rias, but her. Raising her arm, she placed her hand on his face, smiling as the boy blinked his eyes at her. He was cute, way more than anyone else she had ever seen and for once both the pieces of her heart wanted one thing.

"Uzumaki Naruto" Her dry lips quivered as she raised her head a bit, making sure she was only a few millimeters away from his skin, more precisely his whiskers. "Thank you" All the emotions which were raging inside her calmed down as soon as her lips touched his skin. It was a momentous gesture for her, and her heart warmed up when the boy didn't resist it either.

Rias who was overseeing the rather intimate moment blushed madly. 'A-Akeno' words refused to come out of her mouth as they were stuck between the war of jealousy and arousal. Her rational side wanted to lash out on her queen for behaving so inappropriately but the tiny irrational indecent side of her was overpowering the logical one with the leverage of obscenity. Her nether regions which were blazing as if they were set on fire of hell were the living proof of it. 'Nooo…' her back curved as numerous strong waves of hormones swelled each part of her indecent body. Her breasts were aching, begging someone to caress them mercilessly while her nether region craved nothing but an intense pounding. 'Control yourself Rias!' Her attempts were futile as the burning continued. 'I need to stop talking to Akeno about these things' she glanced at her queen again and was surprised to see her blushing madly too, but that wasn't the reason for her surprise, the main reason was that sultry smile on Akeno's face.

"What happened? What did I miss?!" In order to divert attention from herself, she decided to indulge in the discussion, asking the first thing that came to her mind.

"N-nothing" Rias easily discerned the lie from Naruto's voice. "Nothing happened" Now it was as obvious as the Sun in the sky.

"Oh come on. Tell me what happened?"

Akeno was the one to respond this time and Rias didn't like the look she gave her before speaking. "Our lips touched each other" Akeno completed her answer in the most simple way possible, so simple that for a second it made Rias believe nothing significant had taken place between the two.

"Ohh...Wait what?!" Rias yelled, looking back and forth between the two. "I don't believe you" she smiled and glanced at a frozen Naruto who immediately looked away from her. "Naruto" she called out but the boy didn't answer. Tucking a strand of red hair behind her ear, she whispered his name again, this time making sure to sound as natural as she could. "Naruto" something inside her died when the boy stood up from his seat and began to move towards the entrance, all while ignoring her completely. It was heart-wrenching for some reason.

"I should go and check out what our two new guests are doing."

Rias wanted to stop him, ask him why he was ignoring her because she could not think of any reason as to why he was doing this. "Sure" Yet she allowed him to take his leave.

Akeno who saw everything stood up from her position and crouched beside her King. "Rias" she spoke to her.

"Hmm?"

"Are you ok?"

"Of course! What could happen to me?"

The black haired girl shook her head. "Nothing, but I only asked because you were looking a little troubled earlier."

The smile Rias put on her face was one of the fakest smiles Akeno had ever seen. It was even more fake than the smile she usually wore in their own world. If anything, it only proved Rias was incapable of hiding her emotions. "Troubled? Haha, I'm absolutely fine Akeno" Rias laughed, fibs trickling out from the cracks in her fake smile.

"I don't mind sharing him with you."

Rias froze. "H-huh?" She looked at her friend and had to stop herself from blushing when she saw that sultry smile on her face. It was feeble yet was enough to arouse her again. Countless fantasies that she had buried inside her soul began to swarm her mind, tainting it with dark colors of lust and greed.

Akeno coyly placed a hand over Rias' shoulders, bringing her beautiful face close to her own. The hair rose on her neck when eliciting hot breaths of her friend tingled her skin. "I said, I don't mind sharing Naruto as long as it is with you. In the future when I take his virginity, you can always join us whenever you want. After all, I think I need someone to take the rest of the overwhelming pounding on my behalf, don't you think so, Rias?" If it was not apparent before, then it was completely obvious now. Rias was blushing madly, worse than she had ever done. The overwhelming words of Akeno were something Rias had never believed her friend would say after coming to this world.

"I-I" The Gremory heiress squirmed as her friend gently poked her left breast.

"Don't worry, if you don't want to share then you can always find someone else-"

"I will!"

The damned smile on Akeno's face rose to unimaginable heights, not to mention her fingers also began to knead her breast, inflicting what Rias would call the guiltiest teasing of the century. "You always wanted to live a normal life, right Rias? Then here is your golden chance to live a normal life. Follow that boy and I'm sure we both will be able to attain what we desire. There is something very strange about Naruto. Out of the thousand boys I have seen, he is the only one who can make me smile without even trying" she giggled. "Sure he can be an idiot sometimes, but deep inside we both know he is a very adorable human, and I can't help but fall for him again and again. What do you feel, Rias?" She whispered ever so gently.

"I-" Rias was hesitant at first, but soon a small smile flickered on her lips too.

"I think as long as he calls me Rias, I am fine with him. I don't know about love and all but I'm sure as the time passes through, my heart will eventually stop resisting."

"What about your greed?"

"It has already claimed him as mine."

-oOo-

Naruto sneezed as a cold shudder ran down his spine. "Who the fuck is talking about me right now?" He groaned, continuing his small trek to the house located on the outskirts of the isolated colony.

"Sakura? Nah she must be busy with her work"

"Kakashi? No! That bastard is probably reading his porno shit"

"Shikamaru? Hmm, he is not the type of person who would cry for me. Instead, he must be thinking about a plan to bring me back."

"Ino? Oh, I wish she would think about me but she is probably dreaming about Sasuke."

"Then who is thinking about me?!" He sneezed again but this time before he could utter any profanity, his eyes noticed something unusual.

Located within the beautiful meadow were the memorials of his precious people, Jiraiya and Tsunade, but the memorials were not the source of his surprise, instead, the source was resting on the monument dedicated to his mentor.

"Konan…"

His eyes narrowed down at the condition of the bouquet she had given him on that fateful day. Gone was the beautiful bouquet of paper flowers, replaced by a disquieting mess of wrinkled paper shards. "What happened to them?" As far as he could remember, these papers were a part of Konan herself, they were literally made up of her chakra. "Then why are they wrinkling?" His eyes furrowed a bit more at them, surveying the blackened flowers carefully.

'Here is a small gift from me, Naruto. I believe you will be the one to accomplish our dreams of attaining true peace. The flowers in this bouquet will never wither. They will forever remain as the manifestation of trust I'm putting on you'.

His eyes widened. 'Konan!' He thought, worry evident on his face, while a crippling feeling began to settle down in his abdomen. The withering flowers, the loss of chakra from them, and the speed in which they were fading only indicated one thing. 'She is in danger!' The lump in his throat swelled up, making it hard for him to breathe. He didn't know why he was worried about her, she was his enemy, the one who incited his sensei's death. If anything he should be pleased with the ongoing events but for some God forbid reason his heart was worried about her safety.

"Ohh-"

Lost in his thoughts, his eyes never noticed the small rock in his path. Soon, he was falling freely to the ground but his eyes never left the sight of those withering paper flowers.

"I need to visit Ame."

-oOo-

For the first time in his life, Azazel, the leader of the Fallens, didn't know what to do. From crying in front of those graves to falling harshly to the ground, everything happened too fast for the Angel to even discern what was actually happening around them. It was not his first time getting lost somewhere, contrary to popular belief, he had faced these kinds of situations many times. Then what made this situation any different from the past ones? The answer was simple, the lack of magic around them.

"How did we end up here?" He mumbled, eyeing the ragged cabin skeptically. Even the wooden residence was way too different from the houses in his world. He could even feel strange energy surging through the woods but unfortunately, couldn't see or sense what it was.

Gabriel was brought out of her thoughts. The abrupt murmur of her brother not only surprised her but also made her anxious about her own safety. "I don't know, brother" she whispered in response.

"What happened to that Naruto boy you were talking to? Why did he leave us here? And how the hell did he manage to capture the sister of none other than Lucifer?"

She again shook her head, but this time in denial. "I don't think he has captured them. Both the girls were looking very happy with him by their side" a smile blossomed on her rosy lips as she recalled the happy faces of the two girls.

"You think so? Well, then I can't argue. Your ability to see souls is exceptional and I'm sure if you think he is a kind person then he for sure is a kind person" Azazel smiled only to get a shock of a lifetime when his sister blushed at the mention of the boy.

Gabriel's heart fluttered as soon as her brother spoke of Naruto's soul. "He is the purest human being I have ever seen, brother. His soul is truly exceptional, even more than our dear father" she spoke, smiling genuinely after a very long time. She could still remember everything very clearly. From her falling in his arms to her getting surprised after catching a glimpse of his soul, everything was wonderful according to her. It was exactly like those impossible yet wonderful romantic tales she had heard from her father during childhood.

He always used to say that one day she would find someone who would possess a soul which would be purer than his own. At that time, she used to think he was tricking her with his words but now after meeting with Naruto, she could undoubtedly declare that her father was right.

"Why are you smiling like that, Gabby? Don't tell me-"

Gabriel giggled, swaying her hands in a dismissing manner. "Oh no no no, brother. I don't have any feelings towards him yet" she answered.

Azazel hummed, his eyes still not looking away from her face. "Good… wait?! What do you mean by 'yet'?" He gasped.

"I don't know."

Before Azazel could say something else, the door of the house opened with a loud creaking sound. Both the inhabitants immediately glanced at the entrance and were surprised to see Naruto making his way into the house.

"Umm… Hello."

Gabriel smiled at the awkwardness the boy seemed to be emanating. It was amusing, to say the least. "Hello, Naruto-kun," the addition of the suffix didn't go unnoticed by the two males. While one of them blushed, the other one didn't seem to be pleased with it.

"I'm sorry for keeping you guys in this unkempt cottage. I didn't have any other choice at that time" Ignoring the smile on her face, Naruto spoke to his new guests. "Also, if you need any help, I'm staying in the nearby cottage" The urgency in his voice was apparent to the siblings but they chose to remain silent about it, at least one of them did.

Gabriel on the other hand, immediately stood up from her seat, prompting the others to tense a bit at her curious behavior. Step by step, she strode towards a silent Naruto and when she was finally in front of him, she gently placed her right palm on his cheek, smiling brightly as she did so. "Where is Naruto?" She asked.

Naruto stumbled a little on his feet. "What are you saying? I'm right in front of youowww-" he squealed when her fingers, which were caressing his whiskers a while ago, squeezed his cheek harshly. "What are-" words perished in his throat as his eyes saw the look of wrath on her face. It was subtle, hidden behind that small smile of hers, but he was able to recognize it.

"You are not Naruto. Now tell me boy, where is Naruto?"

Her words chilled his spine and he could swear he saw the death in her eyes. For a second he thought about disappearing but the girl even ruined that plan by bringing him even closer to her face. It wondered why it hadn't dispelled due to the force of the pinch; seriously, this pinch was at least three times stronger than one of Sakura's full force punches!

"I-I boss went to save his friend Konan. She lives in Ame" he didn't know what made him do that but he was sure this girl was behind it.

Gabriel regarded the clone for a while before finally letting go of his cheek. "Where is this place, Ame?" she inquired, completely ignoring the look of shock her brother had on his face. She could already tell what he was thinking of, but for her, knowing about Naruto's whereabouts was more important than Azazel at the moment. She wanted to know more about the enigmatic blonde, in particular, how they could have such a pure soul.

The scared cloned did not waste any time and summoned a map of elemental nations. "Here," he pointed to a particular area on the paper. "This is Ame" he answered.

"I see" Gabriel snatched it away from him and tucked it inside her bra.

Azazel was thoroughly confused. He really didn't know what his sister was trying to achieve. One second she looked like she was angry with Naruto and in another, she was raising questions about his whereabouts. "What are you doing?" He finally asked.

The female angel ignored the questionings of her brother and instead, began to walk towards the entrance.

"Gabby!"

Blue eyes blinked before turning over to the side where Azazel was sitting. "I want to discuss something with that boy, brother" she smiled and turned her attention to Naruto. "Please stay with my brother for now. I will be back with your real self soon" The face that clone made only amused her more.

"Real self? What do you mean by that, Gabby?"

"Nothing!"

With that, the girl vanished within a stunning cascade of lights.

Azazel blinked, his eyes gaping owlishly at the spot where his sister was standing a second ago. "Gabby-" he was cut off by a familiar sound of a whisking wire.

"Umm, you told me you like fishing, right?" A very small smile blossomed on Azazel's lips when the boy nudged a fishing rod towards him. "Mind if I join you this time?" His smile got more noticeable when he saw the uncertainty on his face.

"Sure."

Azazel accepted, after all, he also had some very interesting questions that he wanted to ask from the boy.

-oOo-

Naruto blinked, his body evading countless wooden branches that dared to obstruct his sprint. The forest around him was starting to get familiar now. The green lush grass and the beautiful legions of trees were something he was very aware of. After all, growing up in Konoha could do that for anyone.

"I hope there isn't a Konoha shinobi nearby," he whispered, praying dearly to God as he continued to evade more trees. Right now, meeting a shinobi from Konoha would only lead to one thing, an inevitable fight with that shinobi.

"I can not waste my time with that. She is in danger" His hand grasped the withering flowers tightly and brought them close to his jacket.

'We killed Jiraiya'.

A strange feeling tugged his heart and brought a caravan of unanswered questions with it. Questions which even he couldn't answer at the moment. They were arduous and repulsive.

'Why am I doing this?'

He really didn't know why. For all, he could stop right now, let her die, and then watch her body decay in the moist chambers of Amegakure but something inside him didn't want to do that. It wanted to save her, just for the sake of his mentor because he might deny it for a while but his mentor really loved the orphans of Ame. Jiraiya could have escaped that day but refused because he wanted to see his beloved Nagato and Konan again. So letting her die was like spitting on the grave of his mentor.

'What will he get from this whole thing?'

Satisfaction, maybe? Or maybe something else which he couldn't think of at the moment.

'What if she is already dead?'

Now that made him sad. Even after witnessing so many deaths, he was still not used to the concept of it. He may have shared only a few moments with her but in those limited minutes she came across as a very good person.

"Huh?" His eyes narrowed a bit when he felt a presence behind him. It was familiar, very familiar.

"Naruto-san!"

For the second time in a single day, he found himself falling to the ground with Gabriel in his arms, but this time before they could even touch the hard ground twelve beautiful white wings bloomed on her back and soon Naruto found himself flying high in the air.

"Angel-chan!" He exclaimed, looking absolutely stunned by what he was seeing.

Gabriel, who was trying to get a perfect balance in the air, finally looked at him and smiled. "Naruto-san!" She immediately brought the boy close to her so that he could not slip out of her hold. During the whole process, she remained completely oblivious to the distress she was creating within the mind of the boy with her bold actions. "I finally found you!"

Naruto didn't answer as he was lost in the radiance of her smile. Her smile was undoubtedly the purest thing he had ever seen. It was cheerful and contagious, yet a small part of him was looking at it from a completely different perspective. 'Her lips are amazing, aren't they?' His eyes widened at the strange thought. 'Bet they will look very good on our-' his mouth went dry as an image of Gabriel sitting in a rather suggestive position flickered before his eyes. "Umm… you can let me go now, Angel-chan" he said, almost begging as he found himself losing control over his own mind.

Gabriel shook her head. "I can't do that because if I do, then you will fall down and I can't let that happen. So wrap your arms around me, I will lead you to your destination" If possible she pressed her breasts further on his chest as she tried to get a better hold of him.

Red began to crawl out on his cheeks. The softness, the size, and the aroma of her breasts were amazing. It was even more amazing than what he felt on that day with Rias. Sure Rias had bigger boobs but she lacked the purity and if there was one thing which attracted him to the girls the most, then it was the innocence of the female. "A-angel" his words fumbled within his mouth as she looked at him with the most innocent face he had ever seen.

For the first time in his life, Naruto wanted to think dirty about someone. His mind wanted to do some indecent things to her, not for pleasure but for answers. 'What will her face look like if I kiss her? How will she react if I squeeze her boobs? Will she continue to act innocent or will she moan?' The blush on his face increased as thoughts like these kept gushing into his brain. Now he knew why his mentor used to be so passionate about females.

The blush on his face didn't go unnoticed by the female angel. Putting a delicate hand on his forehead, she brought her face close to him.

"You are hot, Naruto-san" she whispered, her lips blowing gentle puffs of air to soothe the hot area.

"Angel- Gabriel!" He squeaked out, his mind in utter shambles. Wasn't it supposed to be the male who said that to the female and not the other way around?

She blinked. Did she just hear him say her name? A full-blown giggle left her mouth, blue eyes shining with mirth as she did so. "You know my name?! Amazing!" The mirth in her eyes only increased when Naruto gently nodded his head. "But I like Angel-chan more!' Tilting her head cutely, she began to soothe his forehead again.

Naruto was a mess by now. His senses had stopped working the moment she called him hot and now he didn't even know what to do. The warm mounds of flesh pressed on his chest were doing nothing but sending torrents of pleasure into his veins which indirectly were affecting the dearest part of his body. 'How can she not notice my sword on her abdomen?' He thought, looking absolutely dumbfounded by the obliviousness of the girl. It was there, right there in open, his manhood was literally assaulting her abdomen with countless stabs.

"Umm… Naruto-san, Do you carry a sword or any type of pointed weapon?"

So she wasn't that oblivious after all. "W... Why?"

"Because something sharp is nudging my abdomen" To Naruto's utter surprise, she still had that innocent expression on her beautiful face. It was like she didn't care about anything at all, except for his well being.

Warmth engulfed his heart at the strange thought. "Oh, it must be my kunai. Wait a minute" he spoke, trying hard not to blush in front of her again. The embarrassment was already too much for him to handle and if she found out about his boner, then it would instantly annihilate his dignity.

"Ahh, now it is gone. Thank you, Naruto-san. You are such a nice man!"

And for the thousandth time in a single day, Naruto fell for her innocence. It was contagious, even more than his own. "Why are you here and how did you find out about me?" Deciding it was the time to ask important questions, he staved off his blush and glanced at her.

"Ehh…"

"What?"

"I wanted to explore your body."

Naruto almost jumped out of her arms in surprise. "What?!" he half shouted, half screamed incoherently.

"Haa! I meant your soul, yes soul!"

Gabriel felt mortified at what she said. She just blurted out her actual reasons in front of the object of her affections! She desperately wanted to just vanish from the world and never appear again. Her 'save' sounded lame to even herself, and by the looks of it, Naruto knew that too.

She knew that the thing poking her wasn't a kunai, but something else. She wasn't completely clueless about human anatomy, as one does not simply exist for tens of thousands of years without knowing about such things.

Deep inside her, she felt a smidgeon of pride at the fact that she could elicit such a response from him. However, she wasn't quite ready to show that side of herself yet, so she maintained her 'innocence' and quashed down her feelings. Despite this, her lips still curved upwards into a tiny smirk that went unnoticed by the blonde shinobi, who was staring at her intently, causing her to blush and avert her eyes.

"Hmm."

"Sorry…"

--ooOoo--

A.N: Finally done!

I hope you like Naruto and Gabriel. This is a very rare pairing and that is why I decided to use it. According to me, they both are perfect for each other, both blonde and dense.

"Review otherwise you are not pure" - Gabriel.

Be safe!!
