Chapter 2: Lunar Princess

3 Years Later, Naruto age 11

It had been almost three years since the day that Naruto and Sona got engaged. Many events took place since then. A few days after the engagement Sona saw fit to introduce him to her best friend –slash- rival, Rias Gremory. The two didn't get along well, something that Sona explained to him that probably had to do with the fact that Naruto represented everything that she, Rias, couldn't have. The ability to freely choose whom to marry. Apparently after the engagement was finalized and announced in the Underworld, Serafall went to the other Satans and explained the circumstances of it to them. After that it seems that Sirzechs told his family about it and so Rias knew all about him even before they were introduced. Sona was disappointed that Rias didn't get along with Naruto and tried to play mediator between them, but once Rias pushed him enough to reveal his Uzumaki temper she just avoided putting them in the same room. Nowadays they have a rather strained friendship as they both don't want to disappoint Sona by always fighting.

A few months later during Naruto's ninth birthday there was a big party hosted in the Uzumaki mansion. It was there that Naruto was officially introduced at the rest of the 72 Pillars as the Uzumaki Heir. He met a great many people there including most of the heirs of the rest of the Pillars. Among them was Sairaorg Bael the former heir of the Bael Clan, who was cast out for not inheriting the famed power of destruction. The two became fast friends and also big rivals.

Of course Rias and Sona were already there along with another girl his age named Seekvaira Agares, whom in contrast Rias he became good friends with. At times she reminded him of Sona, serious and collected but in contrast to Sona she was quick to anger at times if you pressed the right buttons. The last person he met was Diodora Astaroth. A soft spoken kid that for some reason gave him the creeps. Naruto couldn't form an opinion on him beyond that though.

One big highlight of the night was meeting with the Four Satans. In truth Naruto didn't know what to think about them. He knew what to expect from them, he was raised in the company of a rabid cosplaying Magical Girl whom is considered one of their members but still.

One more event that highlighted those years, and in Naruto's opinion one of the more important ones was that he finally received his Evil Piece Set from Ajuka Beelzebub. He was finally ready to start forming his own Peerage. It was the one thing that he was waiting for the most since Sairaorg rubbed it in his face ever since he found his Queen, Kuisha a devil from the Extra Clan Abaddon. Of course he knew that if he wanted to form his own Peerage he needed to find people that he could trust and not reincarnate every random person that he could find. So Naruto resolved to find the right pieces for his own Peerage, and then use them to crush Sairaorg in the Rating Games.

And so that brings us to the now.

"Riiiin! Stop hitting me!" whined a pouting Naruto to his best friend.

Next to him pouting while smacking him on the head with a heavy tome was a pretty girl of eleven years old. She had long and wavy black hair, styled into twin-tails tied with black ribbons and her eyes were of the purest sapphire. Her clothing consisted of a white shirt with a red necktie, a red skirt and long black socks. Her name was Tohsaka Rin, the daughter of Kushina's contracted magician Aoi Tohsaka, and Naruto's best friend.

"Mou! Baka! Why did you say that?" a red faced Rin said to Naruto after she stopped hitting him.

A puzzled expression appeared at Naruto's face at this. "What? I said that red suits you. That's not a reason to smack me around with that thing!" he dodged the following strike from the heavy leather-bound tome. "Why do you carry that around anyways?"

Rin puffed her cheeks. "It's a tome on defensive bounded fields. I'm trying to learn one to apply to my room here." Her room was targeted many times over the years by Naruto trying to set up pranks for her. She hoped that the next time she comes over, Naruto would be in for a nasty surprise.

Naruto scoffed. "Bounded fields? Bah! They don't stand a chance against my seals."

Rin smacked him again in the head. "Baka! We'll see about that."

"Ohh? You think that you can catch me into one of your fields that easily?" he asked her smirking.

"Of course. No matter how you try you'll always fail before my might! Hahahaha!" she started laughing like a villain from some cheap movie.

"How about a bet then? You'll put the field in your room and I'll try to beak in."

"Oh? Are you sure about that?" asked him Rin slyly.

"Yeah!"

"Okay then! Loser gets to be the other person's servant for a month!"

Naruto hesitated. "What?"

Rin saw that and pounced. "Oh? What's the matter? Scared you'll lose? After all I thought that seals were better than bounded fields."

"Okay, okay! Terms met."

"Now let me study! I want my field to bust your ass." Shouted Rin throwing him out of the room.

"Hey you can't do that! That's my house! You can't kick me out of any room here!"

The only response he received was a door to his face.

"And after that she kicked me out and let me stew!" Naruto exclaimed angrily. "Can you believe that?"

His audience was Sona, Rias and a girl their age named Akeno Himejima, Rias's new Queen. She had long black hair tied in a high ponytail and violet eyes.

"Of course she did. That's the only way to deal with you." Sona countered him. The other two girls erupted in giggles much to Naruto's dismay.

"Sooona! Don't take her side! She's a menace." Naruto whined to his fiancé.

"Ufufu! Naruto-sama, you shouldn't mess with a maiden like that. Its unmanly." Said the Queen of Gremory to the blond haired boy.

"But Akeno, can't you see that they're all against me? Rin, Sona and Gremory! All of them." he then fell on his knees in front of the amused girls and took one of Akeno's hands in his own. "Only you understand me my dear Akeno! What do you say we ditch all of them and run away? You ditch the red haired bimbo and I'll ditch the stick in the mud. You can become my Queen and we'll rule the underworld!" he said dramatically. The next second he was running away trying to escape water blasts and ominous looking crimson blast of energy, courtesy of said 'stick in the mud' and 'red haired bimbo'. All the while leaving the black haired girl giggling behind them.

Akeno and Naruto had a strange friendship ever since they were introduced to each other. Naruto was always trying to coax her away from Gremory, only to be violently rejected by Rias and Akeno always took his side in the usual arguments between the three devils just for amusement's sake.

Naruto stood opposite from his mother in a battle stance. She was training him in the clan's secret ninjutsu, in this case the fabled Adamantine Chakra Chains. Naruto had a real aptitude for them ever since he was little. At the moment Kushina was trying to make him bring them out from different parts of his body not just from his hands, a feat that was extremely difficult since even her who was considered a prodigy in the arts took her several years to perform.

"Okay that's enough for now. This is still beyond you." At her words Naruto's face fell. It wasn't his fault that is was so difficult. "Don't look so disappointed Naruto. It took me years to be able to manifest even one chain from other parts of my body, and the Adamantine Chains are considered my specialty.

"Okay mom. But still I want to surpass you and dad so I'll have them down in no time. That's a promise." He grinned at her giving her the V sign.

"Ohh? Pretty ambitious aren't you? Very well then. Tell you what, if you manage to draw blood I'll teach you my original technique that your father helped me develop."

Naruto's eyes brightened immediately at the prospect of getting his hands on such a jutsu. He immediately went to his ready stance, which had his hands set at eye level and his body in a crouching position. Kushina in turn went into her own fighting stance which was similar to Naruto's with some difference gained through years of combat experience.

The two stood idle gazing the other for a few minutes trying to find gaps in the other's guard. The first who moved was Naruto who held out his hand and a magic circle appeared. "Wind Cutter" It unleashed a series of wind blades at Kushina who in turn dodged them while performing her own spell. "Water Formation Wall" which created a dense wall of water around her protecting her from the wind blades.

Naruto didn't stand idle though since he knew his mother would have no problem with his attack, he used his inherent chakra to form his favorite jutsu. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!"

Twenty identical copies of the blond appeared on the training ground who all charged at the redheaded woman. Kushina in turn dropped putting her hand on the ground making an other magic circle appear. " Water Dragon Whip" An orb appeared beneath her hand which in turn spouted out several sharp dragon headed whips appeared each piercing a clone until there was none left, all having dissolved into smoke upon contact.

Kushina watched her surrounding trying to pinpoint Naruto's location who used a replacement to escape the Dragon Whip. The answer came when a series of sharp Water Needles tried to make her a human pincushion.

"You'll have to do better than that dattebene!" I'm not some freshly reincarnated devil you know."

The only response she got was a series of attacks from different directions. She recognized a few of them. There was a Gunshot, two Great Breakthroughs, one Wind Cutter and several Wind Coated Kunai. That's good she thought. He's finally starting to use his head.

Next instant several Clones of her son attacked her, all appearing from different spots of the surrounding forest. Among the Clones she recognized her son's unique signature. She may not be a sensor type of fighter but still she could easily pinpoint his location, after all she did give birth to him.

The Clones were all preparing some long ranged spells to throw at her. What's his plan? She thought as she started to dodge the Water and Wind Spells in a way that would make most acrobats green with envy. She saw Naruto –the real one- charging a spell in his right hand. "Spiraling Wind Ball" he called out his attack as he proceeded to try to smash it into her face.

The irony of the attack was very clear to her at the moment since the attack that she would try to teach him shared the same principles as this one. Nevertheless Kushina ignored it at the moment as she dodged the attack coming right to her face. Instead she just grabbed Naruto's hand letting the Wind ball dissipate into nothing and used one of her own spells against him. "Water Prison" she intoned as the water from her previous Water Wall gathered around him and trapped him inside.

"Yield Naruto?" Naruto only smirked and she understood too late that she was duped. The Naruto inside of the Water Prison exploded in a great show of fire and water. She dodged the Bunshin Daibakuha just in time to fall into a trap. From behind her she heard Naruto –the real one this time- shouting. "Gotcha! Shuriken Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" a hail of wind enhanced shuriken descended upon her. The only thing that she could do was dodge them with her cat like grace since she had no time to use a Spell to defend in time. When she felt one of them graze her skin she knew that her boy had done it. He had drawn blood against her. It wasn't that a great feat since she was limiting herself to around 40 percent of her total power but for her it was enough.

Naruto landed next to her his face almost splitting in two from his grin. "Pay up mom! You owe me a technique!"

Kushina grinned herself at his enthusiasm. "Okay okay, I guess I owe you. Let's get back to the house. I'll tell you about it on the way there. How about it? We both need a shower anyway."

"Yeah, you're right. We kind of smell. I hope Granny Mito doesn't find us like last time. My back still hurts."

Kushina cringed at the thought of her own mother. Last time that she caught them out after their training was done she dragged them to the baths with her Adamantine Chains and scrubbed them until their backs were raw. All the while Kushina was protesting that she was an adult woman and that's no way for her to treat her like a child. The only response she got from her mother was a bar of soap to the mouth courtesy of a Chain.

"Yep let's use the servant's entrance. She won't be expecting that." She nodded sagely.

"Now about the technique. Have you ever heard of the Rasengan..?"

After they returned home -and fortunately there was no Mito Uzumaki waiting for them by the door- and showered Naruto took a stroll around the gardens of the Mansion. He always like coming here, since they offered him such a good connections with nature. Naruto as the rest of his clan were in tune with nature thanks to their Kyuubi roots, so they could use Senjutsu. Not a lot of them were able to use it though due to how hard it was to submit oneself in nature, and draw all of the negative emotions that surrounded the world.

Naruto was one of the few exceptions to the rule for reasons that no one could explain yet. Oh they've tried for a while to find the reason but even the most skilled member of the clan had no answers to this particular problem. And from Kyoto when they asked the only response they got was that it's not time yet to reveal. Kushina was quite pissed at them for the response but she had to let it go since she didn't want to damage their relationship with them.

Which brings us back to Naruto.

As he was walking through the dense forests in the Uzumaki gardens he found his favorite clearing. There he sat down cross legged and started meditating, immersing himself to the world. While he couldn't form a complete sage mode yet due to his age, he could when meditating feel the world around him.

At the moment everything was peaceful since it was 5 in the afternoon it was mostly silent around Uzushio. Yet there was something in the air, something like… anticipation. Something was about to happen. He was sure of it.

Suddenly he felt it. Something opened. No wait… opened wasn't the right word. Something ripped… no still not right. Something appeared from somewhere. There. He locked to the signature. The feedback he received was conflicting. Hope yet despair. Joy yet sadness. Hate yet peace. Emotion yet serenity. But over them all it was pain. And pain was something that Naruto understood. Pain meant that someone was hurt, so he rushed to the place where he felt the person was.

After a five minute run he arrived to a clearing in the forest. The clearing wasn't there yesterday. It was made from something making impact with the ground as evidenced from the crated in the middle of the clearing. And inside the crater was a sight that made our young hero pause.

Inside was a girl his age. But this one was no simple girl. She had long flowing blonde hair, much like his own. Her eyes while half closed were of the deepest red, like two molten rubies. She wore a white dress that reached her knees with gold trimming. The perfect image was ruined by red splotches that could only be blood all over her.

When he saw her Naruto rushed at her side. "Are you okay?" he asked her frantically while checking her over for injuries. All he found out was that the blood on her wasn't her own.

The girl didn't respond. Her only reaction was to try and raise her hand who took a claw like appearance. So she thinks I'm a threat were Naruto's thoughts. "I'm not going to hurt you."

"I-I-I be-el-ieve you." she said while shaking from exhaustion. Her voice while sounding completely tired was melodic and sent a pleasant tingling through his spine.

"What's your name?" he asked as he scooped her into his arms in a bridal carry. He needed to take her to the hospital immediately. She might not have any injuries on her but it was still necessary to give her the onceover. Just to be safe. To his surprise she seemed to snuggle to his chest making him blush a bit despite the situation.

The girl let out two words before she succumbed to unconsciousness.

"Arcueid Brunestud."

In the following days Naruto stayed next to Arcueid's bed in the hospital waiting for her to wake. The doctors said that it was just a case of complete exhaustion, mental and physical. While he was there he was visited by both Rin and Sona who expressed their interest in Arcueid. Apparently she was a Vampire but not from one of the well known clans. His mother who also came to visit almost every day, said that she'd heard the name Brunestud before but she didn't remember where.

On the fifth day the young girl finally opened her eyes. Those ruby orbs opened, glowing in the darkness as they took in their surroundings. She was in a hospital of some kind. She tried to shift and the slight noise she made stirred the other occupant of the room whom she hadn't notice in the beginning. He was a boy around her age that seemed vaguely familiar. She recalled images of the boy helping her after she used the portal to travel in the underworld. She also recalled a feeling of warmth. And safety.

"Mhhm, five more minutes mum." He talked in his still semi-conscious sleepy state.

Despite herself Arcueid smiled a bit at him. He looked so cute all curled up in the chair.

It seemed that in the end he woke up by himself because the next thing she knew was staring in those violet orbs.

"You're awake!" Naruto shouted in joy as soon as he opened his eyes to meet those of the young vampire.

"Yes I must thank you, Mr. Devil. While I wasn't in any grave danger when you've found me I'd still be vulnerable due to my complete exhaustion. So thank you for taking care of me." Arcueid smiled at him.

Naruto beamed back at her. "It's not a problem. I couldn't leave a pretty girl like you just lying down there." As soon as he realized what he said he blushed red.

Arcueid herself wasn't far behind, since no one has ever called her pretty before. "T-Thank you for your kind words Mr. Devil."

An awkward silence fell upon the pair, which was broken by Arcueid. "So what's your name? I can't be calling you Mr. Devil all the time."

Naruto smiled at her. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki, heir to the Uzumaki Clan, one of the 72 Pillars of the Underworld. And you're Arcueid, right?"

Arcueid smiled at him. "Well nice to meet you Naruto! And yes, my name is Arcueid Brunestud, White Princess of the True Ancestors. A vampire as you might already know."

"True Ancestors? What's that?" queried the blond.

Arcueid scratched the back of her head awkwardly. "Ahaha, you weren't supposed to hear that. I was just caught up in the moment and said It." she said while making a fist and cutely hitting herself in the side of her head.

"No I'll very much like to know how the White Princess was found so far away from her home and into my territory." Said a voice from the doorway, who startled both kids since they weren't expecting anyone else to speak up. The voice was revealed to be Kushina who sported a frown on her face.

Arcueid looked like the deer caught in the headlights. "Who're you?"

"I'd be careful if I were you brat. I'm the Clan head of the Uzumaki and this love stuck idiot is my son." She ignored a blushing Naruto's protests. "So tell me why you are in my territory brat?"

"Mum! Can't you see that she still needs rest? Leave her be for now. What does it matter if she's one of those True Ancestors?" The only response he received was a bump to the head courtesy of his mother that shut him up.

"Why do I have to answer anything to you, you old hag? Can't you see that we were having a conversation here?"

A tick mark appeared on Kushina's face along with a red aura around her while her hair started to hover behind her segmenting into nine different pieces. "Ho? Someone clearly needs discipline. Tell me do you want to be punished so badly? Because I can easily oblige you shitty excuse of a vampire."

Arcueid herself rose from her bed a white aura surrounding her, while her hand transformed into a claw. "You want a piece of me you old hag?" Lightning erupted between their eyes as they became ready to rip each other to pieces.

Naruto still disoriented tried to get up only to fall face first on Arcueid's chest who while still young was quite gifted for her age.

Arcueid let out an embarrassed squawk when he landed on her chest, while Kushina was beyond pissed. "Unforgivable. NARUTO!"

Naruto was quite lucky that they were still in the hospital.

Kushina, Arcueid and Naruto were sitting in the mansion's gardens after the incident at the hospital. Alongside them was Serafall who came to confirm that the presence of the White Princess was indeed true.

"Now I want to tell me why you're here Brunestud. Last I heard you were raised by that old relic Zelretch." Said Kushina.

All eyes were one Arcueid after that. She took a deep breath. "Old man is dead. He died a month ago in his sleep. His age finally caught up to him."

Kushina and Serafall who knew the old man hung their heads in respect to his passing. He was a great man and will be missed by many. "My condolences Arc-tan." Said Serafall to her. Kushina too gave her condolences.

Arcueid gave them both a nod in thanks. Naruto was still confused, and he decided to voices his confusion. "Who's this Zelretch and what are the True Ancestors?"

His mother turned to him. "What you have to understand Naruto is that like the Devils, Vampires are residents of darkness that have existed since ancient times. They have similar rankings and weaknesses like that of High-Class Devils. However, Devils are residents of the Underworld, while Vampires are beings that live in the darkness of the human world. They may seem similar, but their views and culture differ greatly.

"How so?" It was Serafall that answered him.

"The Vampires are a race of supernatural creatures even more proud and aloof than the Devils. In fact, the discrimination between Vampires and other species is so strong that it has reached the point that Dhampir, who were born from Vampire Lords and human mothers, are treated badly even by their own family members. Several hundred years ago, there was an incident that split the world of Vampires, where the Vampires argued between choosing a female true ancestor and a male true ancestor in order to retain pure-blooded Vampires. This incident eventually led to a violent civil war that completely eradicated the True Ancestors, the oldest of the True Vampires down to one person."

"Who was that person?" It was Arcueid that answered him.

"Me." That completely surprised Naruto.

"You? But how is that possible? You look like you're my age. Give or take a few months."

"Well when the Civil War happened I entered a deep sleep, like a hibernation. During that time I was stopped from aging. A magician named Zelretch, who was a friend took me in. A few years ago he broke the hibernation because he felt that the time was right. And so here I am."

"I see." Was all Naruto said. He was deep in thought about an idea he had.

"What I want to know is why you were in the state that Naruto found you in?" asked Kushina.

"Well a few days before Naruto found me I was tracked down by agents of the Tepes Faction. They attacked me and I was barely able to escape in time. I used a portal to bring me in the underworld, but it completely exhausted me leaving me in the state I was found.

"I see." Said Serafall as she stood up. "I have to bring the news to the rest of the Satans, especially Ajuka. He was a good friend of the Old man Zel." She turned to Arcueid. "We have decided that you can remain as long as you wish in the Underworld. I recommend staying with the Uzumaki to have a friendly face around. It was good meeting you White Princess. I hope our paths cross again." Serafall finished with a big smile.

Before Arcueid could reply she was interrupted by Naruto. "Wait a minute before you leave Sera."

"What is it Naru-tan?"

"Arcueid I have something to ask of you." He turned to the Vampire Princess. "Would you like to join my Peerage?"

"EHH?" was heard from Kushina. Even Serafall looked surprised.

"Before I answer you I want to ask. Why?" questioned him Arcueid. "Do you want to bind my power? Do you crave the prestige you'll gain because you've tamed the White Princess? Do you want to be the one who subjugated the last True Ancestor?"

Naruto was shocked at what she was insinuating. "No nothing like that. It's just that ever since I met you I have this feeling. All those days that I waited you to wake up, I felt a connection to you. I can't explain it with words. It's a gut feeling that tells me that I HAVE to ask you, even if you reject me. Do I make any sense?"

"Absolutely not Naruto. You're not making any sense and neither will I allow you to have this failure of a Vampire in your Peerage." Raged Mt. Kushina behind them.

"Shut it old hag." Arcueid shouted back at Kushina. "I have to say that I was expecting you to ask me Naruto. After all if you didn't ask me I was going to ask you if I could join. I had the same feeling telling me to do just that ever since I met you. I can't describe it either. It felt like I was meant to be found by you that day." She smiled at him.

"So yes, I'll join your Peerage, my King."

The next moment Naruto summoned his Evil Piece Set and started going through the pieces. He immediately discarded those all back to their place and he took hold of the one piece that he knew was meant for Arcueid. The Queen piece.

He placed the piece upon her chest and recited an aria.

"By the Power bestowed upon me I call upon thee Arcueid Brunestud, to become a member of my Peerage. So arise in this new life of yours, my Queen."

The piece before it was absorbed it changed and became black with silver vines running along its length, signifying it to be a mutation piece.

"Let's go and take over the world, my Queen." All she did was smile warmly at him.

Behind them Serafall who was restraining a pissed off Kushina said something that was a prelude to the days to come.

"Things are starting to become a lot more interesting. The others need to know about that."

A few days later

"Your tea Rin-sama." Said a pissed of Naruto as he served tea to a smirking Tohsaka Rin, while dressed as a butler.

Rin took a sip and spat it out in disgust. "You call that monstrosity tea?" she spilled the remaining tea on his face. "Go make me a new one servant."

Apparently Naruto wasn't able to break into her room and so for the next month his ass belonged to Rin. A fact that she was going to milk for all its worth.

"Yes Rin-sama."

"And?"

"Rin-sama is the best there is. There is no one who knows anything better than Rin-sama. My sole purpose in life is to be useful to Rin-sama. Am I free to go to fetch more tea Rin-sama?"

"Yes servant. You have my permission to go. Hohohohoho!" she cackled manically like the witch she was, thought Naruto. Two days down, twenty nine to go.

A.N. Hey guys!

New Chapter as you can clearly see. Duh!

Now a few answers for some of the reviews.

emilbootanimefreak: I have no plans for Kushina to get remarried. Nor is she paired with Naruto. I'm not into that sort of thing so just no. Issei will play the same part in here as he did in canon. I don't have any plans on altering him or replacing him. This story isn't following Rias and her Peerage. They'll have minimum appearances here. As for the other suggestions I'll say that if Koneko plays any role in my fic it'll be as a sibling and nothing more. And that's a big if since I was never that big of a Koneko fan. As for Ravel, Yasaka and/or Kunou we'll see since I haven't planed that far ahead. Yasaka and Kunou will definitely appear though.

Guest: I know that the 72 Pillars are based on the 72 demons in The Lesser Key of Solomon but for plot's sake we replace one of them that has never appeared in the show with the Uzumaki Pillar.

.129: no Naruto will never gain any fox aspects from his linage. He's too far down the line to gain them and personally every time I read a story that Naruto gains such aspects or becomes a hanyou of some kind is a big turn off for me. So thank you but no thank you.

Also thank you all for your reviews and suggestions. I can't say that I'll take them all under consideration but some of them have made me change some things in the story already and hopefuly made it better. So thank you all.
