Sekirei : Eternal Pledge

Chapter 1 : The Beginning

-Tokyo Bar-

Saki, Sekirei number 55, skilled in spy activities and disguise making her become special spy agent of MBI that guard Tokyo.

Right now, she is on undercover mission that Minaka Hiroto, the CEO of MBI assign himself to her, failure is not an option. Everything is at stake; just a tiny mistake could become a matter life and death. A very dangerous and important mission that need all of her skill.

Or so she thought…

Looking at her target Saki could not help to sighed, "Another whiskey please…"

The bartender just gives her another shoot.

"Yeah right…" Saki lamented, she should know better.

There in the other side of the bar are her targets, Sahashi Takami and her partner. Chatting and drinking with each other happily. She never sees Takami smile like that.

Saki just thinking back how she end here at first place..

(Flashback)

-MBI Tower-

Saki just summoned to Minaka office, she just feel nervous because that man never called her to meet him privately.

"You have come, Number 55" Minaka greeted her as soon as she entered the office.

"You need something sir?" Saki asked normally but inside she is nervous, could it be that Minaka finally decided her Ashikabi..

She just hopes not, because she wants to find her Ashikabi by herself. She even has made a scenario for her meeting with her Ashikabi.

In the middle of a dangerous mission, a lone beautiful Sekirei spy (her) injured and a handsome, charming young man find her. The man said nothing as he helps her. The two then fall in love with each other but the spy torn between her duty and her love. However, the young man…

'Stop.. No girly fantasy right now' Saki thought and focused on Minaka.

"Yes.." Minaka trailed off for dramatic effect, "I have a very dangerous and important mission for you"

Saki just gulped at this, what kind of mission that Minaka has for her.

"A mission that will change your fate forever…" Minaka continue dramatically.

"What kind of mission sir?" Saki asked seriously.

She is after all a spy for MBI, expert in spying and disguising.

"You must spy someone that dangerous…"

"But beware…" Minaka paused a little, "If you made mistake you could be killed by that person"

Okay, this piece of information made Saki nervous.

"Don't worry sir. I have confidence in my spying and disguising skills" Inside she just prayed that her target not Karasuba.

"Oh, I believe you, number 55" Minaka smiled, "After all you are the Sekirei that have 101 faces, the one that lurks in shadow…"

Saki just wisely ignored what Minaka saying.

"My target?" Saki asked after Minaka finished his rant.

"Your target is Sahashi Takami. The demon of MBI (Somewhere Takami sneezed and swear that she will beat the crap of Minaka)"

Saki frown and sweat drop at this, Takami are MBI head researcher and charge of Sekirei Plan. She is a high level individual and someone that off limit in MBI. However, why Minaka want her to spy Takami?

"Is something wrong?" Saki asked carefully as she knows Minaka relationship with Takami.

"What do you think about Takami lately…" Minaka said seriously, this just made her become more nervous.

Thinking for a moment, she remembered meeting with her yesterday but "Nothing unusual sir"

"Your observing skill still lacking…" Minaka sighed disappointedly

This made a thick mark appeared in Saki head, insulted by Minaka word.

"Even I could tell that she become weird"

Saki just stared at Minaka dumbly. Minaka just said someone else weird. This crazy, insane man told her that someone else weird.

'You are the weird one in here' Saki thought but keep silent

"So go, find what happening…" Minaka ordered, "Become my eyes…"

"Ok, Sir" Saki said hastily, she doesn't want hear another crap from him.

(Flashback End)

Therefore, Saki followed Takami since she left the MBI tower.

Takami gone home changed her clothes to black cocktail dress and take MBI limo.

Well, not a surprise, after all there is a rumor about her visiting host club. Saki couldn't blame Takami, with a husband (not official) like Minaka, she deserve it. However, the direction that she taken is the opposite way. This brings her attention.

She then stopped in front a building and entered it. Saki then proceeds to disguised herself and follows her.

And bring her into this bar.

Saki saw Takami met a young man. A little bit younger than Takami and quite handsome too if she must say.

The first thing in her mid when she saw this is, 'Takami is cheating Minaka' and bring her into another her girly fantasy. Before focused back to the mission, she had.

Drinking her whisky, Saki really couldn't blame her for that.

'Ah.. I feel lonely…' Saki thought envious at Takami who chatted happily with the man.

She doesn't know why but the man attract her.

At first, her attention solely focused at Takami but slowly drifted to the man. Saki also feels hot and blushing as she continues to look at the man.

Then a sudden thought hit her, 'Am I reacted to him?'

Her face becomes red as tomato and the thought of fighting the man with Takami entered her.

'Kya, what I`m thinking!' Saki shook her head, 'But if he really my Ashikabi…'

Saki suddenly sulked. She is MBI spy, so she cannot have Ashikabi outside from MBI. However, if she think about it, doesn't it sweet to have Ashikabi from outside MBI. The two will fight for their love against MBI and…

'That's sound good…' Saki thought as her girly fantasy taken over her, 'its like Romeo and Juliet'

"Yos, I decided!" Saki yelled then she paid the tab and gone to MBI. She has something to do, like made a resignation letter.

"Yos, I decided!"

Naruto heard the yell but paid no attention to it. He knows that girl had been spying on them or particularly Takami.

'She must be a detective hired by Takami good for nothing husband…' Naruto thought wisely, after all Takami had told him about her husband.

'But still….' Naruto is impressed, that level of stealth and disguising ability is on par with ANBU level ninja back in his day. True, he found something weird happened in Tokyo lately. There had had sudden influx of 'special people' lately.

However, he paid no mind to that, after all if you live as long as him, it's normal to meet someone that had some kind special power. Usually this kind of people was byproduct by mutation, evolution, because Juubi body in the moon or something else. Even though Juubi is gone, the body still exists to this very day in the moon and it doesn't help when human gone to the moon and take moon stone that contaminated by Juubi. However, that's a story for another day.

What he really felt is a very familiar feeling, the same feeling when there are seven of them but now it's only him that left. Still it could be their descendants; after all, he met many of their descendants in his journey around the world.

'Also if the eight is found already, it will be all over the news already' Naruto thought as the probability for the eight to be found now is close to zero.

He can imagined all of the panic and everything else if they found the eight one. So, it must be his own imagination.

'Or I miss you so much that imagine things…' Naruto thought sadly, after all Japan is the country when he met them and buried their body.

'Also there is possibility I became senile because my old age' Naruto doesn't know if he should laugh or cry thinking him become senile. Still he never thinks that many of other six descendants would gather in one place like this.

"Ne, Naruto-kun do you hear me?" Takami asked bringing Naruto from his deep thought.

"Ah of course Takami.." Naruto assured her with a smile making her blushed a little.

Sahashi Takami, he met her in this bar just half a month after he came to Tokyo. At first, she mistakes him for her deceased friend but after realized her mistake, she apologized to him and treat him a drink. They found each other is a great drinking partner or for Takami a listener. Since then they started to meet each other frequently at this bar.

"Okay, then you know my son failed his second entrance exam. I don't know what I should do about him anymore… " Takami lamented, "Then there is my good for nothing husband that increased my work load because his nonsense. What do you think I should do Naruto-kun…."

"Takami, I think you should be patient about your son and husband, but I cannot give you advice about your work…" Naruto told her.

Another part about Takami, she never told him what kind work she done or her husband name. Takami just told him that her husbands are, scum, trash, no good for nothing, etc…

"Like I said before Naruto-kun, it's a secret and…"

Naruto cut her off, already knew what she want to said, "A secret makes a woman, woman."

"Huhuhu…, You knew me well.." Takami let a small smile at this.

"Huhuhu…, You knew me well.."

Takami could help to smiled at this. Naruto really remembered what she told him.

'If only Minaka like this…' Takami lamented.

She wondered what she saw in Minaka that made her fallen in love with him. She must drunk at that time.

The first time she met Naruto, she mistaken him as her deseeded friend. It is not because Naruto hair or face but the aura that Naruto exclude is almost the same as her friend. Despite their awkward first meeting, she found Naruto to be a perfect gentleman. Soon enough their meeting become more frequent and she doesn't need to visit that host club anymore. Well except to inform Homura about the Sekirei that MBI released.

"Are you okay Takami?" Naruto asked because Takami become silent suddenly.

"Yes, just thinking about something…" Takami told Naruto who smile gently at her.

'Ah.. if I only met Naruto-kun first…' Takami thought wishfully and stared at Naruto miss match eyes.

Cerulean blue in the right and red blood ruby in the left

Naruto eyes are so beautiful, like it made from jewel or the jewel itself made from Naruto eyes.

But, it also contradicting each other

Water and fire

Calm and fierce

"Is there something in my face?" Naruto asked uncomfortably as she continues to stare him.

"Nothing, just looking at your beautiful eyes Naruto-kun" Takami praised him

Still, Naruto red eye sometimes unnerve her.

That weird pattern in his red eye.

"Ne, Naruto-kun. Why you had that weird pattern in your red eye?" Takami asked, not for the first time.

"Birth defect" Naruto answered with the same answer as he told her.

Takami just sighed, she is a scientist and she knows that a birth defect to had two different eyes is possible. However, she sure, that a birth defect couldn't made it had a strange pattern like that. Still, it's not her place to force Naruto to answer it. After all, she still hides something from him. Although that doesn't made her to not ask about it repeatedly.

"Let's drink more Naruto-kun" Takami proposed bring her glass.

"Let`s" Naruto answered simply as he bring his cup,

"Cheers" The two said in the same time.

The night still young after all..

Naruto just looked at the moon as he walked.

He just parted with Takami in front of the bar. Takami offered a ride for him but he refused, much for the woman dismay.

A small chuckle escaped Naruto as he remembered Takami pouting face as he refused her offer. Even when she told that this maybe their last meeting for sometimes because she became busy lately. Still he refused her offer. After all, she seems to be drunk enough and it's not appropriate for him to be alone with a drunk woman.

However, at times like this Naruto envied other human. They could get drunk but him, he cannot get drunk anymore. Bring him all the sake and alcohol in the world and that's still not enough to made him drunk.

'Is this a blessing or another curse..' Naruto thought absent-mindedly.

"HELP!" a woman voice yelled gained Naruto attention.

The voice came from the alley in front of him.

Looking in the alley, Naruto could see two men are cornering a girl. This doesn't take a genius to figure out what happened. Still, Naruto hate these kinds of people the most and he cannot just to let this happen before his eyes.

"You two" Naruto called making his presence known, "That's not the way to treat a lady"

Sahashi Yukari just came back from her friend party.

It's already late in the night but she confidence that nothing bad could happen to her. This thought what bought her to her current situation.

She doesn't realized that she had been tailed by two men and by the time she realize it. She has already dragged to the alley with one of the man pinned her on the wall.

"Damn bitch! Just be quiet, no one could hear you after all.." The man who pinned her yelled as he covered her mouth, true the street now is empty and no one wandered around this late.

"We can make this painful for you, you know?" The other man sneered at her.

At this time Yukari cursed, why don't she take her brother advice seriously. She only could pray that someone heard her yell before this scums do something to her.

"You two, That's not the way to treat a lady" A male voice called making they to look at the alley entrance.

A young man with gray spiky hair stands there. Yukari couldn't see his face clearly because its was shadowed by the moon light. She could only see a pair of miss match eyes staring at them. Cerulean blue in the right and red in the left with strange pattern in the red one, she will be lying if the red one is not unnerves her.

"What do you want?" The man who pinned her yelled and for a second his hold to her become weak.

Yukari not missing this chance kick the man between his legs.

"…..!" The man just wordlessly falls to the ground and Yukari run to her savior.

Naruto just raise his eyebrow when he see the girl kick the man between the leg and run to him.

'This girl got guts' Naruto thought as she hide behind him.

"Damn bitch! You alright man?" The man partner yelled as he comes to his friend side, trying to help the man that the girl kicked.

"Hey girl" Naruto called and looking at her, he couldn't shake the feeling that he know her from somewhere.

Unexpectedly the girl blushed red, " name is not girl my name.."

"Whatever, just go away. Find some place safe" Naruto cut her off.

The girl tried to argue with him, but Naruto doesn't want to deal with this. Therefore, he used the watered down version of Tsukuyomi to make the girl think that police suddenly come and deal with this problem.

The girl eyes become unfocused and she start to walk away, back to her home.

"HEY!" The man yelled as he sees the girl walk away.

Naruto just silently stared at the man and entered the alley.

A few minutes later Naruto came out from the alley but the two men nowhere to be seen.

-Park-

Naruto sighed as he walked through the park.

He hoped that he won't deal another problem like before again. To tell the truth he grew tired with all the hero stuff.

He just wants to…

'Its unattainable dream…' Naruto reminded himself bitterly and he shook his head to clear his thought.

He just wants to laugh at himself. What will his friend say when they see him like this. He had become someone different that he was before. He is sure that his friends will say something like; this isn't like him at all.

Naruto couldn't be more agree with that.

He was a shell of his former self.

His friend always thought that nothing could change him but they are dead wrong. When someone live as long as he, see the end of the world once, and see how the world repeated the same mistake over and over again. Well they would change too.

In the end…

What defeated Uzumaki Naruto aren't some powerful enemies or something that grant but his own immortality…

With immortality, he had unlimited time…

With that unlimited time, he experiences many things….

From that experience come realizations…

After all experience is the best teacher…

'Yeah right…' Naruto snorted but he agrees, experience truly the best teacher for him…

It made him realized many things that he does not want to realize.

Still, there is no point to pondering about it now; after all, he had all the time in the world.

"Well, let's go home before something happen…" Naruto muttered, he just want to sleep right now.

However, in the park bench there was a girl sitting in there.

Normally Naruto would ignore it, but the girl current state made him cannot leave the girl alone.

She just sits there with white shirt and doctor cloak. Her light brown hair shadowed her face making Naruto couldn't see her face.

'I just jinx myself' Naruto thought about his current situation.

Walking to the girl Naruto greets her, "Hey, what are you doing here?"

The girl stays silent for a moment before answering, "I`m not needed…"

Now, how should Naruto say next after she said that?

"I`m broken" The girl continued as she still looking down hiding her face from Naruto.

"Well, I could bring you to hospital…" Naruto offered, as he doesn't have any clue what the girl talk about.

"They don't need me…" the girl seem ignored Naruto.

Naruto just sighed as he bring out his cell phone, 'Better contact police or hospital'

He decided, it seems the girl is having some kind of trauma or something. However, her next word made Naruto freeze.

"I`m just a broken tool…I have no purpose…"

Naruto hands now are shaking, 'That word…'

Never had he thought that he would hear that kind of word again. So much emotion flashing in Naruto eyes as he tried to regain his composure.

'Why now?' Naruto thought bitterly as he clenched his teeth. That word bring him to a certain memory that he thought that he had forget.

"You are not broken…" Naruto told the girl, his voice strained.

This gains the girl attention, "But they said…"

"No matter what anyone else said, you are not broken," Naruto told her, his face looking down, not seeing the girl face.

Naruto just cannot bring himself to see the girl face, afraid that her face looks like someone in the past.

"Still no one wants me…" The girl said,

Naruto doesn't like the tone in her voice. The tone of someone that had given up, broken, lost and has no purpose.

The exact same tone that he has heard in the past and the one that he had had once before….

"Then…" Naruto said slowly, "I want you"

The girl became silent after that, Naruto still looking down.

"Will you?" The girl asked with hope in her voice, a faint hope…

"Will you want me?" The girl asked as she stand from the bench and walk to Naruto.

"Yes" Naruto asked firmly, he just couldn't let this girl alone after he heard that.

"Even I cannot be winged?" the girl asked as she stopped in front Naruto

"Yes.." Naruto stopped as he process what the girl talk about, 'Winged?'

Naruto raised his head and looked at the girl, she is standing in front of him. The girl brown eyes stared at him, with her light brown hair hiding her forehead.

"Then…" The girl said it softly as the wind gently breeze at them "I, Akitsu will become your Sekirei, forever and ever… my Ashikabi.."

Naruto stood there in shock as the wind revealed a mark in Akitsu forehead.

Never, he is never thought that he will hear that word again, not in this time…

Sekirei

Ashikabi

His mind trying to denied it..

However, the mark in Akitsu forehead..

There is no need for another proves…

The Sekirei Crest…

He was overwhelmed by this sudden revelation..

The memory that he suppressed come to the surface..

The memory of joy and happiness..

But also sorrow and pain…

So much emotion rise inside him..

Then Naruto lose control of his emotion..

Black flame rise, surrounding the two as the moon shines over them..
