Chapter 1: Blood and Black Feathers
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It was a terrible battle. Two grown men had been fighting for half an hour. One was tall and muscular. He had black hair and didn't have eyebrows over his grey-dull brown eyes. He had a cow skin patterned pants and had no shirt. In his hand was a giant cleaver like sword called Kubikiri Houcho. This man is Momochi Zabuza. Fighting him is a man who is around the same height, but his build is made more for speed then power. He has silver-gray hair and most of his face is covered except for his multi colored eyes, one black and the other red and black. This second eye is Sharingan. The holder of it is none other then Hatake Kakashi.
Kakashi remembered how he got into this mess. His team consisting of Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura, and Uzumaki Naruto, were given a C-rank mission to guard a bridge builder from bandits. Not even a day into the mission it was bumped up to a B-rank, possibly A-rank mission involving enemy ninja, do to the appearance of The Demon Brothers.
Kakashi sighed to himself when he remembered the first attack from Zabuza on his team. He, an elite jounin of Konoha, was hard pressed to beat the nukenin. When he had beaten him and thought him dead, he came to the realization that he wasn't dead. So he did the best thing he could do at that point in time... train his team. Now to where they were now.
Kakashi was sweating. He knew that Naruto had unleashed Kyuubi's chakra, but he didn't know why it got cut off so quickly. He could sense Naruto's chakra signature along with the Hyouton user, Haku, so neither had won. 'Damn, I need to end this now and help Naruto.' He thought, but out loud he said to Zabuza who just got captured by his nin dogs, "Zabuza, I'm afraid I have to end this. Your lucky to see this technique of mine, it's the only one I've ever created. I call it Raikiri..." With the last word said he performed the needed hand seals and pushed his right arm palm down and his left hand located on his right wrist as a whitish-blue electric chakra became visible in his palm.
Zabuza stared in amazement as he saw just how powerful must be to have the chakra of it actually visible. He came out of his shock as Kakashi burst forward with an amazing show of speed. As he neared the captured nukenin an ice mirror appeared out of nowhere and the Raikiri was no on a collision course with Haku. That is, until another body came out of the mirror, pushing the young kunoichi out of harms way and getting a Raikiri through his right lung. Kakashi stood there shocked. He had just, more then likely, killed his student.
"Na..ruto" he stuttered, "w..hy?"
Naruto smiled, a bit of blood running from the corner of his mouth. "Be..cau..se, she.. is my.. pre..cio..us per..son." he coughed out, " I..I had... to."
Kakashi was about to pull his arm out of Naruto when he was kicked in the chest by said person. Less then a second later Zabuza's sword came out of nowhere and knocked Naruto towards the railing of the bridge, and over it.
::Naruto's Mindscape::
"Son of a bitch." The Kyuubi roared. Not even five minutes ago he had been awoken and hit by all the memories of his host. He was shocked by what he saw done to the poor kit. Not even demons were so cruel and heartless. Now his host had a punctured lung and was falling off a tall bridge into water over 200 feet below it. The great demon looked around frantically, but froze when he saw something in the corner of the boy's mind. He smirked, not evilly, but more of a satisfied smirk of someone who won a battle. "Kit you better be thankful for this. Who would of thought that you had two kekkei genkai? Just another second of tinkering and you'll save us both. Then it will be time for repentance on my behalf."
As he spoke he was releasing three tails of chakra into his host. One to heal the hole in his chest and the other two to unlock the bloodlines.
::Real World::
Naruto knew he was falling. He knew that if he hit the water below he'd die, Kyuubi or not. As he reached the half way point he felt weird. First the hole in his chest felt like it closed up and the pain dulled to just soreness. Then he felt two objects break out of his back around his shoulder blades. It was painful at first but then the pain disappeared it reappeared in all his bones including the objects in his back, before said pain also subsided.
Naruto blacked out for a second before he seemed to be floating over the bridge.
______________________________________________________________________________
Back on the bridge Kakashi was pissed. He not only just probably killed his student, the only one who seemed to understand his lesson on teamwork, but then Zabuza threw him off the bridge. Just as he was about to kill the nukenin he heard clapping at the end of the bridge. When he looked he started to sweat a little. At the end of the bridge was Gato, surrounded by 100 mercenaries.
Zabuza was pissed though. "Gato, why are you here? This is my fight." He yelled to the midget man.
Gato just laughed and said, "So this is the great bad Demon of the Bloody Mist? More like a baby demon."
Zabuza was growling at this point. He turned to Kakashi and said, "I apologize for your student, but I'm no longer being paid to kill so our fight is over."
Kakashi just sighed. He held no grudge against Zabuza. He knew the shinobi way and had learned even more since. Zabuza took his silence as acceptance and was about to ask for a kunai since his arms were ruined when a figure landed on the bridge. When the two groups looked over they all gasped.
"Naruto..." Kakashi said with a smirk, relieved that his student was alive.
"Gaki.."Said Tazuna and Zabuza.
Sakura just growled out something that sounded like "Baka" and "can't stay dead."
Haku smiled and yelled, "NARUTO-KUN!" As she ran over and hugged him. She released him when she felt something soft protruding from his back.
When everyone noticed what got her so shocked they gasped. Protruding from his back were a pair of black angel wings. Naruto himself hadn't embraced Haku because he too had noticed the wings, only sooner, and was experimenting with them. However when Haku stepped back he looked at his arms and thought about how it had felt like his bones had been coming out of his skin, when a bone appeared out of his right forearm. Again people gasped, but Kakashi was the most surprised of them all.
Gato was the first to get over the development and laughed again saying, "This freak ain't gonna help you either. Now what to do... I know, I think I'll fuck that pretty little apprentice of yours Zabuza, then let my boys have her after they raid this town for all the women they can find." The mercenaries behind him all cheered and drew their weapons, getting ready to kill and capture.
Now if Zabuza was pissed, Naruto was down right insane with rage. He walked over to Zabuza's sword and said, "Zabuza, I'm going to borrow your sword. I have scum to kill." Zabuza nodded his head as the young blond picked up the blade as if it were nothing and slung it over his shoulders. Naruto then went to try something he had just thought of and forced bones to grow all over his body forming armor in his vital spots.
The young shinobi then looked at the crowd a mercs and yelled out, "NOW IT'S TIME FOR ALL OF YOU TO DIE!!!" With that he ran forward and burst into the air with a flap of his wings. Acting on instinct alone he focused on his wings and started to shoot off a large amount of sharp black feathers and pearly white bones into the mercenaries killing off a large number off the ones at the edges and outer center of the group. The Kubikiri Houcho cut through or knocked back any merc close enough to be hit.
Gato had rushed to the back of the crowd, but he made the mistake of turning around. The last thing he saw was the bridge full of black feathers fluttering from the skies and blood all over the place before a huge sword sliced him in half.
The group of shinobi and Wave villagers, who had arrived during the massacre of Gato and his men, stood shell shocked that one person had killed off around 80 people with the rest of the mercenaries leaping off the bridge to the boat they came on.
As Naruto passed by a fatally wounded mercenary with the Kubikiri Houcho over his shoulders, the mercenary asked, "Hey gaki, what's your name? I need to know the name of the fallen tenshi who beat me so I can brag about it in hell when you're a big shot."
Naruto just smiled sadly, remorseful over the kills he just made, and said, "Uzu..."
He was interrupted by Kakashi who had walked towards Naruto and said, "Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, son of the deceased Yondaime Hokage and Yellow Flash of Konoha, Namikaze Minato, and Uzumaki Kushina the Red Death." This was said more to himself and Naruto then the dying merc. The dying man just grinned as the last of his life faded away.
The crowd of Wave villagers got out of their shock and cried out in happiness that they were finally freed from Gato. Naruto however was tired and shocked at hearing who his parents were, so he put it to the back of his mind as he walked towards Zabuza and Haku.
When he was about three or four feet from them he said, "Thanks for letting me use your sword, I guess it's time to return it now, eh?" At this he held out the sword for Zabuza or Haku to take, but Zabuza shook his head and replied,
"No gaki, you keep it. I got another sword back at my hideout I can use. Besides, I just found someone who can keep my legend alive. You, Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, are from this day my successor known by all by the title of Demon of the Bloody Leaf. You earned it."
Naruto smiled as he hefted the sword back across his shoulders. He thought, 'Well it may have demon in it, but I guess I can make an exception. Besides I kind of like the ring of it.'
::Three Hours Later::
Since they had returned to Tazuna's many things had occurred in a short amount of time. First Sasuke turned out not to be dead when Haku pulled out the senbon from his neck. It seems he had also manifested his Sharingan.
Naruto had been proclaimed the hero of Wave, much to the ire of Sakura, the jealousy of Sasuke, and the pride of Kakashi, Haku, and Zabuza. He had also figured out how to pull his wings into his back so he wasn't too much of a disturbance. the strange thing is that his appearance had changed since his wings appeared. He was now taller then Sasuke and stood at 5' 9". His hair, instead of just blond, was blond with whitish-silver streaks through it. The most important thing is the fact that he had asked Zabuza and Haku to think about joining Konoha. Though the weirdest thing to happen on the way back was the newly founded Naruto Fan Club, much to Haku's displeasure.
Now we find ourselves in Tazuna's living room with the two groups of shinobi and Tazuna and his family sitting around their coffee table. It was a meeting to discuss Naruto's abilities.
Kakashi was smiling as he said, "Naruto your abilities are from two bloodlines I thought extinct. One was the Uzumaki branch of the Shikotsumyaku (Dead Bone Pulse), and the other is Reikon Tenshi (Soul Angel), of the Namikaze clan. Before you get excited let me explain about your clans and the other branch of the Shikotsumyaku. Then I'll tell you about what they can do, okay?"
Naruto just nodded, excited about having two kekkei genkai.
Kakashi got a far away look in his eye and started with, "The Namikaze clan is straightforward so let's start there. The wings usually materialize when in need, or around 14 years of age. The color depends on the type of experiences they've had. White for if they had a mostly normal childhood, grey if they had a sad childhood with an equal amount of happy moments, and black if they had a horrible childhood. This is why it's called Reikon Tenshi, because it relies on your soul. The abilities of this bloodline include flight, the ability to use wind jutsu, they are as strong as steel so they won't be pierced easily, not to mention your Shikotsumyaku should make them even stronger, and finally you can use the feathers as projectiles.
"Your Shikotsumyaku however comes from the Uzumaki. Years ago they and the Kaguya were one clan, but about 150 years ago they split apart because of certain differences. The Kaguya faction was growing in blood lust, and the Uzumaki didn't like killing if it wasn't necessary. The Uzumaki faction moved to Uzu no Kuni. Your abilities from that bloodline involve manipulating your bones at will and extremely durable bones, along with being physically stronger. Any questions?"
Naruto looked down for a second and then said, "I know about my tou-san, but what about my kaa-san? What happened to her?"
Kakashi sighed and said, "In the aftermath of the Kyuubi attack everything was chaotic. Me and Kushina thought you were dead. I guess Sandaime-sama thought it was best to keep you a secret until you could protect yourself so that Iwa wouldn't try and kill you." He paused for a second letting it sink in.
Naruto nodded in understanding. He had read about how Iwa hated his father for the amount of Iwa shinobi he had killed.
Seeing the understanding in his face, Kakashi continued, "Your mother was stricken from grief and she fled from Konoha. A few months later Sandaime-sama received a letter from her saying she was with her clan in Uzu, but he couldn't spare any messengers at that point in time. OK, now that that's settled, how about some sleep?"
Everyone nodded and headed for the rooms that they had been assigned to sleep in.
::Bingo Book Publisher::
The shop that sends out bingo books was just about to finish their last set of papers when a bandit runs in.
The bandit yelled out, "Hey I got info on this ninja. He's a genin, but he's plenty strong. Took out nearly the entire bandit army I was in. The army numbered over 100. I had to retreat."
Now the publisher was interested. Not many newbies made that kind of first impression. "Hey, my name is Kai, tell me about this kid." The publisher said.
The bandit proceeded to tell Kai all about the battle, when he got to the end he described what the kid looked like. He ended with, "His sensei said his name was Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto. One of my former comrades nicknamed him The Fallen Tenshi right before he died, but the most amazing thing I can tell you is that Zabuza name the gaki his successor and gave him the title Demon of the Bloody Leaf. So is it good enough for a reward?"
The publisher was shocked. He paid the bandit quickly, and handsomely might I add, and went to add Naruto to the bingo book as a B-rank shinobi.
Shit was about to hit the fan and everyone was gonna get hit.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
