part one a young man approached a Beowulf in the dead of night at least he assumed it was a Beowulf it certainly looked odd enough he'd spent the last week tracking it by now the hour was late and the moon was full shining down in all its shattered splendor he knew the bee saw him just as he saw it he'd gone out of his way to Corner it his Pace did not slow any Observer would have thought him foolish at best suicidal at worst why else would a stranger willingly seek out a creature of the Grim in the dead of night surely only a fool would do such a thing a fool indeed or a Madman perhaps he was for the time had come to test his theory there could be no gain without risk nor risk without gain beneath the tattered Rags of his well-worn cowl whiskered cheeks dimpled in an anxious scowl he didn't think he was mad just left without much choice the worst case scenario he died here tonight they could only kill him once after all perhaps that was a morbid way of thinking things he knew of no other way to be no one would miss him in any case none would mourn him he was in every way an outcast a pariah if you were to Die Here and Now all his accomplishments would come to not his grand plan to save the world destined to die a stillbirth before it could ever be born his mentor was long since dead no one else would care about the death of some stray and Veil they will call you mad for this Naruto a memory took him in its teeth and shook him from head to toe they will not understand knowing that are you still prepared to take on this burden I am I want to help people this this can save thousands millions of people of course my boy of course you're the perfect vessel he hadn't backed down then and he wouldn't back down now someone needed to turn the tables it had to be him someone else might have gotten it wrong by the sage that was a very large Grim easily 10 feet tall on all fours the alpha could crush him with one paw he knew it the Beast knew it he could fight if it came to that he wasn't anywhere near as powerless as he appeared but he didn't favor his chances against the Beast of this size not at this range knowing this the young man still extended his hand hey there big guy he grinned at the Beast want to be friends a tumbleweed blew past the man and Beast Vanishing in the undergrowth as if On Cue the Grim threw its head back and howled it was a surprisingly sharp sound a Keenan contralto against the Silent Night oops his smile became a touch more stressed you're a girl are you sorry about that he laughed and rubbed the back of his head with one hand didn't mean to offend you hackles Rose is the Beast tensed ready to pounce something in the young man quelled at the site he gritted his teeth and stood his ground Palms still splayed the Grim crept closer slathering Jaws parted exposing row upon row of serrated knife-like teeth one bite that was all it would take a single bite would take his arm and the shoulder besides he'd be dead before he hit the ground a whimper nearly stole out of him but he took hold of it wrestling it down before it could Escape him and yet still the young man found himself hesitant this was his calling his purpose he knew this every fiber of his being called him to do so yet fear wasn't so easily quashed was this a Beowulf at all up close it didn't look like one he was beginning to think it was a breed he not encountered as of yet that voted poorly anxiety stirred deep inside him drawing a growl from the horrifying Abomination before him don't panic he willed the words at himself locking his fear in a box and burying it deep Panic leads to fear fear is the enemy no fear here the alpha sniffed his palm once twice Thrice a spark of intelligence flashed through the red slits of its mask he reached out with the gift this world had granted him and breathed on it Fanning that tiny Ember into a flame faint tendrils of light sprang from his palm wrapping around the Grim like strands of silk it stiffened but he pushed outward with his power to pacify it calm he breathed the word chanting it like a mantra keep calm he knew the moment his power took root because the Grims fur once black as pitch burned a bright shade of deeply luminescent gold it jerked back with a rough snort of surprise red eyes wide beneath its mask a snail tore through the night and Naruto felt its shock as clearly as if it were his own of course he did he'd linked himself to the Grim steady he forced the words out through gritted teeth steady now I'm not going to hurt you just be cack a rough tongue footed out and scraped across his face rendering his silver tongue and incoherent mess Naruto did his best not to gag his right eye twitched good girl would you kindly sit much to his surprise the Beast made a chuffing sound and plumped down on its hindquarters rather reminding him of a hound well a giant Hound that could take him and Shake him apart with its teeth Burke now he was nervous again still it made no move to attack he tamed it just like the rest with that Naruto released a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding his shoulders slumped and against his better judgment he dared to reach out and scratch the Beast Sears a mighty leg thumped upon the floor as its Tung lulled forth from that Fang Maw slowly a tentative smile dawned on his whiskered Visage well hot damn that actually worked now what am I going to do with you the golden Grim he was starting to think of it as a Hound merely cocked its head at him he hadn't been sure he could successfully influence the higher breeds of grim until tonight all right then his theory was proven his ability extended to Greater Grim as well as the Lesser breeds that was certainly a step up from what it had been in the beginning oh if only Merlot could see him now he'd be howling with laughter his semblance was a strange one sometimes he wondered if it was really a semblance to begin with anyone who could commune with Grimm much less influenced them make them more than they were well it had to be a curse his parents in this life certainly called it such was it a curse a blessing some Unholy influence perhaps he wasn't sure he had been reborn into this world without Aura to protect him yet he still possessed this strange ability his soul would always be with him never without these creatures could and would kill him if he let them Grim had sought him for as long as he could remember attracted him wherever he went he wasn't sure what it was that true then to him only that it did by the time he realized he was a Target well things hadn't gone well Mountain Glen was heralded as a disaster for good reason that day he'd lost the one man who gave a damn about him after his mentor's death he deaked out a meager existence in the Wilds away from the cities away from civilization away from everyone still they were drawn to him and in a strange Twisted way Naruto found himself drawn unto them they could be reasoned with persuaded not to attack even outright dominated when all else failed Naruto didn't enjoy the latter but sometimes it was necessary Grimm were always dangerous when they were mindless as this one had been give them intelligence the ability to think and reason to exist as more than mindless monsters well remarkable things happened tame enough grim and they might well leave people alone some might call it a pipe dream perhaps it was but he'd been given this ability for a reason surely he was meant to use it for the greater good in truth these beasts were not the Mindless monsters man feared them to be after all if they were he would have been long dead by now if they could learn to act as normal creatures did if they could be taught if he was able to find the one directing them if if if so many ifs Naruto pinched the bridge of his nose inside enough for one night his reserves were flagging all right he patted the Hound on its strange mask I guess we should get back really you're the first greater Grim I managed to Dash bone gave way with an awful crack as the Hound held an Untold agony Naruto jerked back terribly startled by this unexplained phenomenon what in the world something latched on to his reserved and yanked yanked really really hard he dropped to a knee gasping for air Golden Light burst from the beast's shining flooded the clearing bringing with it a rush of pressure the young man flung up an arm against it wincing as his cow was torn back bright blue eyes squinted against the haze framed by ten whiskered cheeks and Tawny blonde hair he kept squinting until a hunched shape resolved itself amidst the Gloom he stopped squinting when he saw pale skin naked cheeks of flame he ripped his battered cloak from his shoulders and casted over the woman in a desperate attempt to preserve her modesty for this was undoubtedly one of the pharisex when the Mist cleared a human face stared back at him no not quite human but certainly not faunas either framed by the ruined remnants of a broken mask around her startled Visage baffled eyes blinked back at him her hair was dark yet a strange shade of red darker than dark even like someone had reached up and cut out a piece of the bloody Knight itself and wounded into those Tresses of hers startled Silver Eyes blinked up at him from a gaunt face that looked like it hadn't seen the sun in years Naruto recoiled a person inside a grim what was the world coming to who are you a horse whisper fled from her lips myrrh he frowned didn't quite catch that she didn't seem to hear him instead the woman raised her hands then frowned when she realized they were no longer pause fingers stood in place of claws flexing into loose fists as he looked on an expression of pure Wonder crossed her pale Visage as she turned them and over end her lips worked worthlessly either unable or unwilling to speak by some Miracles she didn't try to remove the cloak he'd thrown over her Trembling Hands clutched it close to her naked body trembling from the cold Naruto plucked the canteen from his belt and offered it to her here maybe this will help that got her attention she all but snatched it from his hands and drank greedily thank you when she finally spoke again her voice sounded stronger from the pure water he'd given her you saved me save he scratched the back of his head I didn't even know you were in that Grim Miss Silver Eyes gazed up at him brimming with unshed tears as he looked on a gas the woman began to weep a strange heat pervaded Naruto's face and he looked away feeling terribly embarrassed by the sight when was the last time someone had thanked him he couldn't remember really it hadn't been that long surely he liked helping people and yet he couldn't remember the last time he'd gone out of his way to actively help someone maybe it was time that changed she tried to stand and stumbled forcing him to catch her summer the woman croaked clutching at his sleeve for support as she stood on unsteady legs my name is Summer yes that's it there there was something else wasn't there she swallowed and touched a hand to her forehead grappling with a memory I had a mission but I can't remember something in him winced he said the only thing he could did you have a family it was the pebble that started in avalanche realization flashed through her startling Silver Eyes family the word bursts from Summer's lips and she latched onto him like a limpet fingernails biting into his arms that's right I have a family please help me she glanced left and right as though fearing an attack at any moment take me home don't let her take me again her Salem she babbled the words and clutched at her head she took me her eyes went wild flashing with fear and something else he couldn't understand she did things to me I don't want to go back she shook her head Anew sending her hair swaying in a messy tangle take the girl she said no no no no a Keening whimper forced itself through clenched teeth I won't take the girl I won't give her Ruby she can't make me his brow furrowed who emblazes the Salem summer gazed up at him suddenly eerily calm she's the end the end of everything Queen of the Grimm her eyes rolled back into her head without warning and she slumped in his arms forcing him to catch her lest she dashed her head against the stone some are offer no resistance whatsoever were it not for the faint pulse in her neck he would have thought her dead she was certainly cold enough a bitter Breeze swept through the clearing and Naruto fought down a shiver there was so much he wanted to ask her but he'd get no answers from her like this Grim weren't people were they was someone turning humans into Grim another part of him wanted to throw his head back and laugh laugh long and hard finally he'd studied for so long delved into the depths of mountain Glen torn through Merlot's research they said it was impossible that it couldn't be done yet here at last he had his validation his proof and most of all the beginning of his Redemption but was it all he had a name Salem Queen of the Grim oh oh dear that complicated things he knew someone had been directing the Grim themselves for quite some time now the attacks certainly indicated as much but he thought it was a stray Huntress with an ability similar to his not a bloody queen that wanted to end life as he knew it if she was doing this to people then that made her an enemy she stood directly opposed to his own goals for these Grim if anything she was likely commanding the lot of them that wouldn't do with this Simple Choice the world began to change once more he wouldn't be alone anymore never again he'd already sworn to save this wretched rotten world one way or another and he would even if he had to drag it to Glory kicking and screaming but in the meantime guess I'll bring her back to her family seems the right thing to do what could possibly go wrong Naruto found the journey to patch a long one but the flock of Nevermore that stalked them from the skies he wouldn't call those tame in hindsight few of the birds were bold enough to approach him outright yet the fact remained that they followed him nonetheless he cast the weary blue eye at the Dark Cloud on the horizon wondering if the Swarm would swoop down upon him swooping was bad this lot had proven themselves more Curious than dangerous thus far butane no never tame Grimm would not beasts of burdened one couldn't simply clamp a collar on a creature of grim and expect it to obey they had to be taught they had to learn and make no mistake they could learn they just needed a chance more often than not it felt to him to confront them convert them and then set them free a curious Trill beneath him reminded him where he was namely the giant freaking Nevermore he was currently riding across the ocean yeah yeah he sighed and absently stroked its feathers I appreciate the lift just don't give yourself shot down I don't know how to swim MERS still have cold too an intent red iris regarded him then swung back he patted its head once for good measure I really do appreciate this thanks to his gift he managed to convince the creature to fairy him and summer to her home still he dared not reach out and make it his own not yet not completely fear held him back what if there was a person inside it that too sounded absurd but he had no way of knowing now all he thought he had known was thrown into disarray as though summoned by that very thought one of the smaller never more swooped down really guys he stifled the jaw popping yawn as one of its smaller Brethren landed on his shoulder I'm not a scarecrow shoe rather than respond it began to preen itself cheeky bird this was why he issued civilization this was why he had ever stayed in the Wilds this was why he'd avoided forming bonds with others until now by some miracle summer spend most of the trip asleep two spent from her ordeal to put up any meaningful resistance she'd only woken once to tell him where she lived patch nothing more he'd had to learn the rest on his own supposedly it was a tiny little island off the coast of vale home to Signal a prep school for Beacon heck of a place to live he stole a glance down at her now considering the woman he'd rescued restored though she might be summer wasn't entirely human even now he could still see the fragments of her mask fused to the right side of her face molded there like a second skin they couldn't be removed he tried she'd whimpered in her sleep and he dared not make a third attempt for fear of waking her perhaps that was for the best summer rose would have been terribly startled when he'd stopped to ask directions from that Geist even more so if she realized she'd been sleeping among the plumage of this giant Nevermore many would have balked at writing on the back of such a foul fowl to him it was second nature really Grimm were quite nice when you stopped to talk with him so long as you didn't show Fear they would let you be or perhaps that was the innate nature of his semblance at work who could say atop his shoulder the smaller Nevermore ruffled its feathers and shot away with a startled call huh Naruto blinked drawn from his reverie that's weird wonder what spooked it on a whim he turned his gaze upon the ocean something looked back glowing eyes regarded him within the ocean waves large and intent something massive shifted just below the surface its long Serpentine bulk barely in the muddy Morning Mist his heart skipped a beat bugger that was a cephalum wasn't it had to be he'd done his reading he didn't think his semblance was strong enough to handle one of those yet leaning back he gave his mount a subtle nudge urging the Nevermore to fly just a bit faster a bit higher the sea monster kept pace with him effortlessly no no no took his thumb between his teeth not now even now he could feel the beast's presence burning in the back of his brain like a Clarion call unto itself it's mind brushed against his considering him intently no doubt it saw him as a threat an intruder in its territory a pest to be exterminated if it reared up out of the water and took flight no he didn't want to consider that the moment it did he'd be in a world of trouble sensing his distress the Nevermore beat its wings Anew in a frantic attempt to gain altitude golock below them the beast's body broke the water with frightful speed blocking them with its bulk Naruto reared back and his Nevermore with him nearly spilling Summer's sleeping form from her crudely made saddle she'd be crossed with him later if there was a later later didn't look very likely right now oh geez bastard was bigger than he thought Naruto hissed out of breath his mind whirling for a solution but none came he could dominate a grim in a pinch if worse came to worst though that often proved the battle of wills his against theirs doing so left him more drained than he cared to admit and he wasn't sure he could survive the attempt here so he didn't even try instead he stretched his semblance out like a net weaving it over the Grim's wool in a light thread he prayed it wouldn't notice its nostrils flared in Surprise blast it easy now he soothed raising a hand I'm not your enemy a warbling growl escape the beast's Fang Ma and it was all he could do not to gag ugh bad breath horrible breath this close he could count all of its teeth even the smallest was twice his size it could devour him in a single bite and his mouth with it no weapon he possessed would be able to kill it quickly enough and if he hit the water he pushed just a little harder look buddy we're just passing through go back to sleep would you Sparks seated between its jaws Naruto gulped please I really don't want to drown there had to be land somewhere nearby there just had to be another push firmer than the last his skull screamed in pain a line of blood ran down his nose but the creature before him responded slowly almost reluctantly those glowing eyes began to close few he exhaled in his shuddering breath and wiped a bead of sweat from his brow close call the tail came out of nowhere striking hard and fast Naruto didn't even have time to gasp His World Went black the balance had shifted Salem felt it in Her Bones her heart of hearts in her very Soul somewhere someone somehow she had been challenged her pale flesh itched most uncomfortably leaving her Restless upon her throne she'd felt the link connecting her to the Grim waiver most unpleasantly as if someone had thrown a pail of cold water over her even now her right arm twitched aching to find the source and rendered apart so too had she seen the source Through The Eyes of her children seeing the face of the one responsible for this most heinous crime such a fool steal the Grim out from under her would they impudent pup whomever they were they would drown in their own blood for this or perhaps murder was final death was the end for the other creatures of Remnant yes the more she thought on it the more she realized just how much of an opportunity this was why discard someone with such a useful skill set it seemed such a waste to remove a being who may well be able to further enhance her grim she smiled Softly Tyrion I have need of you the faintest shuffling of shoes behind her Stone Throne answered her yes my lady there is someone I wish for you to find he must be dealt with she snapped her fingers take what's with you and see to it at once find him but of course a merry giggle greeted her as the faunas rubbed his hands together and then you will bring him to me alive her minions helped but a little as you command my head summer woke Faithfully sharp pain stabbed through her skull sharp and cloying with sand why was there sand in her mouth she wrinkled her nose and spat it out trying to rid herself of the salty taste propping herself up on her elbows she dared to take a glance at her surroundings only for her arms to fail her water laughed at her face and she sputtered upright bleary's Silver Eyes blinked up at the afternoon sun unbelievable someone was growling just out of sight where the hell are we no I know you don't know but still the faint Cry of a bird broke through her thoughts for a terrifying moment she thought she saw a giant Nevermore it trilled once a sad for loan sound as someone bound its ruined wing with white cloth no it's fine the man muttered to it I'll call for you when I need you be safe go on get out of here come back when you're healed with a triumphant Screech something crashed into the trees just ahead leaving a lone dark feather to flutter onto the ground it was too much for her fragile psyche she blacked out again a moment later only to wake just as quickly and find her savior standing over her hey his familiar voice plucked at her ears you're finally awake come on wake up she didn't want to she wanted to sleep to forget to pretend all this awful nonsense was just that a fever dream but she couldn't her dreams had been dark indeed equal parts Nightmare and Terror alike they say the worst nightmares are often true this one certainly felt like it Naruto right she vaguely recalled him speaking to her some time ago that's her name isn't it his head bobbed good you remembered it was touch and go for a bit there where are we an island I think he scratched his chin with a clawed finger might be patch might not we washed up here after a sea phylong attack Blue Eyes dimpled in a smile you didn't exactly give me an address her mind world I thought I saw a grim he winced a little at that one must have been dreaming right of course a nervous titter escaped her lips must have people didn't talk to Grimm her mind jibbered at the thought bent but not quite broken it just wasn't done she was being silly maybe she really had hit her head yes surely this was just that little more than a fever dream as she recovered to even consider otherwise threatened to undo her entirely and wait something was moving on his arm a bug no not a bug what's that on your shoulder this um for a moment she thought he'd lie to her evidently he thought better of it no point in hiding it I guess just a Geist he Shrugged he's harmless the Specter waved at her with a club forlum as if to say hello waved at her summer blinked once twice Thrice fear asserted itself with a vengeance Grim her eyes went wide and she kicked out with her legs launching herself backward at least that was her intent she failed horribly what followed was little more than a stumbling Lurch that sent her crashing down to her hands and knees like a clumsy child no attack followed no aggressive moves were made the Grim and its master just stared at her as if she were the odd one out her savior corked a brow was that really necessary I already told you he's harmless like this yes yes it was have you lost your mind there's no such thing as a good Grim they're all evil I prefer the term misunderstood the young man huffed lunatic careful now his eyes narrowed when she kicked at him again this lunatic made you human again be nice Summer's teeth came together in an audible click he had her there she squinted at the Grim anew it's really harmless I'm not trying to control them he lifted his arm allowing the guys to drift around it in a harmless swirl of smoke I just want to unlock their true potential when he realized she was staring he wrenched his gaze down and to the right pretty sure I've already done that for you unless you don't approve she misunderstood him and cringed away you changed me back her mind recoiled at the thought cold lonely swimming in Shadow guts gripping in the dark take the girl take the girl take the girl why did you even think no of course I can't do that Naruto's sharp snail slashed through her thoughts mercifully sparing her the trauma of what she'd endured whatever you are now you're stuck that way at the end of the day you're you his hand slashed through the air further drilling his point home you won't be that Monster again never again the heat of his words caught up with him again and he coughed once into a fist I mean well you know summer rocked back on her weak legs with a frown for all her fears and Trauma her body felt light she felt strong powerful agile was that a good thing there was still a presence in the back of her mind a dark shadow that squirmed if she stared over long at it she flinched Anew and shoved it away with a shutter Aspen needs to be told Naruto Shrugged don't know anyone by that name had he been living under a rock or something no never mind that if you can really do what you claim he'll protect you he can't those sharp eyes narrowed upon her no one can I'm a magnet for grim a living Beacon they're drawn to me as much as I am them his brow furrowed and he looked away considering something when I had freed you you mentioned someone who is Salem that's easy she's Queen of the Grim and oh realization donned a heartbeat later oh that's bad very blue eyes rolled in mild derision if she's anything like what I think she is she won't take kindly to my meddling then you should stop could you he turned a pitying look upon her if you knew you could change the world make it better wouldn't you or would you run and hide some are flinched anew and that alone he was right should Salem ever learn of his existence well death would be the least of Naruto's worries speaking of which an awful thought occurred to her she'd been gone for so long her face felt funny stiff heavy she could see with both eyes but one of them felt hot she had to see she wanted to see she needed to see a seed of fear bloomed in her heart do you she swallowed once have a mirror here Naruto handed her a knife polished to Perfection it wasn't difficult to find her reflection within though she soon wished she hadn't she touched a hand to her cheek and flinched when she found white bone there not as whole as it had been when she'd been that thing but present nonetheless her hands trembled despite her best efforts her mind struggling to comprehend the horrors she saw before her that was undoubtedly her face it had to be it must be and yet it was all wrong summer rose saw her pale Visage and the veins there she whimpered Softly my face what did you do to me I saved you when she looked to him he sounded so sure Ernest I didn't even know you were in that Grim when I freed it apparently it's not a seamless process clearly not things changed I'm sorry you're still healing and I don't know what to do about your arm but I'm sure the scars will heal and at least you're alive summer never gave him the chance to finish her head slammed into his chest driving the words out of him first she began to weep then she wailed alive she was alive scars didn't matter this mask didn't matter none of it mattered here at last in her right mind her emotions overwhelmed her completely she was helpless as a newborn she couldn't think couldn't move could barely even breathe words bubbled up in her fear broke through her soul and had its day in the end she uttered two words over and over again thank you thank you thank you Lisa lavender knew a story when she saw one as an up-and-coming journalist she could sniff out news like no other some said it ran in her family's blood a byproduct of a bygone age something about psychics or some such others called her semblance stillmore wondered if it was just bloody bad luck Whenever there was a story to be told she was never far the truth was decidedly less impressive than most people thought it wasn't a gift a curse or even a semblance she simply had a nose for these sorts of things she lived for news no price was too high no risk too great for the thrill of breaking a story exposing Scandal corruption greed she would risk anything cracking cases wide open solving Mysteries hard-biting tales that got your blood pumping that sort of thing did that make her a bad person she didn't think so she broke the news equally much to the Chagrin of allies and enemies alike good or bad didn't matter if there was a story to be told she would tell it she wasn't biased she was fair as far as Lisa lavender was concerned her semblance was a pain in the ass downright useless really she didn't even want to think about it honestly the brothers were probably laughing at her but this this was news a man crash lands in Evermore in patch decent story not worth it Huntsman pulled that stick all the time all over the world yet when said man talks to said Grimm better news the people loved reading about Mad Men better payday too when said Grimm responds to his commands now that was a bloody headline right there at a glance it seemed like some old fish wife's tale and she thought as much before she'd spoken to her Witness he was reliable even if he wasn't his footage spoke for itself a fisherman had seen two people come crashing down onto patch a man and a woman both one of whom didn't look quite human people didn't ride grim the scroll footage was shaky at best grainy at worst when set to maximum Zoom but the sight of its third warmed her blood in a way few things did because from that footage she could see a face ing a scroll out of her purse Lisa dialed an old number and set it to her ear hey Tom it's me I need a favor she grimaced as an annoyed voice guac through yeah I know it'll cost me you got eyes on patch another Rumble came through you do great I'll pay you the usual rate there's somebody I gotta find tall chap blonde hair and blue eyes whisker cheeks can't miss him the reply had her pale face flushing no this isn't another wild goose chase find him by the end of the day let me know where he is and I'll pay double information and lien were exchanged and the scroll went silent against her ear there the deed was done just as quickly Lisa called the photo back up again Azure orbs glared back at her Wild angry like he was looking right at the camera staring into her very soul she shivered a little dangerous men always had the best stories to tell interviews with them were always the best who are you she wondered aloud what are your secrets the photo held no answers for her it only wedded her appetite someone who could control the Grim there had to be some trick to it even if there wasn't this was more than a story this was news and she wouldn't rest until she got to the bottom of it secrets were like a vault really sometimes you just needed the right combination or you could crack it open with high explosives whatever worked regardless she wanted a word with this young man in hindsight Lisa lavender had no idea what her actions would unleash how could she was just a journalist but she would learn she would learn summer was antsy as expected of course she was antsy the poor thing after what she'd been through well it was a miracle she was still saying or was she Naruto winced when she nearly bumped into someone for what felt like the umpteenth time she didn't even stagger lost in her own world as she was it was a testament to her new strength as a hybrid that she didn't break her stride not so the Burly males she'd collided with poor bastard all but crashed into a wall and Spilled his ale everywhere hey the faunas raised the tan fist after her watch where you're going I have half a mind too here Naruto darted ahead and pressed a bit of lean into his hand for your troubles she's in mourning it wasn't the truth by any means but it confused the poor fellow enough to back down long enough for them to make their escape even with her Hood up some are all but power walked her way through the market forging a Brisk Pace Naruto found himself forced to match lest he be left behind her rudeness wasn't even intentional on her part she was that wrapped up in her own thoughts more than once she all but knocked someone off their feet forcing him to intervene time and again although she was ever careful to keep her head down lest anyone recognize her more than a few shot her nasty looks thankfully no one challenged her outright thank the sage for small Mercies she didn't stop to engage with anyone neither did he though he almost wished she would if only so calm down he hissed when he reached her side you're making a scene I am calm she forced the words to a smile so tight her face clenched see how calm I am I'm smiling summer her gaze tore away from his just just leave it Naruto he yanked her back before she could Bolt not a chance talk to me I can feel her inside me Whispering she shivered a little and clutched at her left arm the bandaged one it's like an echo an afterthought her lips pursed I don't know I can't tell if she's really there or not fretful eyes turned up to him and he was startled to find that one her left had become a startling red black I'm scared as she spoke that Eerie Iris began to bleed weeping dark Tears like ink I won't want to turn back into that thing you won't but what if I do she wobbled blue eyes narrowed you won't you're something different now she grabbed at his sleeve what am I then you're supposed to be the expert on this Naruto blanched he really wasn't summer was an anomaly someone he not expected to find and yet he had just how many people had Salem put inside Grimm a handful dozens hundreds more did it only apply to silver-eyed Warriors or was there something darker at work he didn't know and it terrified him in the end he settled for a shrug in the truth you're something new is that why my arm changed all of a sudden she gripped at the black lesions that had grown across her left limb in the time it had taken them to find civilization her fingers had sprouted claws while the Flesh of her skin there had turned their Pitch Black it still looked human but his senses said otherwise he wanted to lie to her yet he couldn't I don't know I wish I did but wishing doesn't help she tore free and built ahead of him Naruto had a more sedate Pace letting her lead him on allowing her to guide him first through the town square down a dirt road then off the beaten path entirely through Bramble and Thicket she walked unwilling to speak a word to him perhaps that was his fault this was a lot to take in even without the revelations he'd given her was she trapped like this was there some way to tear off her Grim Parts safely he didn't think so not without killing her sensing his stress something stirred a small golden Geist the one he'd converted on the beach popped out from one of the many pouches he kept on his vest its lone eye crane towards Summer's retreating form then back to him now back to Summer again tiny shoulders Shrugged helplessly as it made a hissing sound I hear you little buddy Naruto patted its mask with a finger girls are a mystery don't think I'll ever understand them stop talking to that thing and keep up summer shouted back at him we're nearly there Naruto Ducks through a thorn bush grumbling only a little as it caught at his coat you heard her back and you go can't have anyone else seen you the guys saluted and Dove back into its pouch really it was a mercy when they finally arrived at their destination it was a nice little house more of a cottage All Things Considered downright homie seeing it made his heart ache with Envy if only because it reminded him of what he could never have something ugly reared its head in his heart this wasn't fair with a snarl he stomped it down until it stopped moving everyone had a place in this world what right did he have to Envy a happy little family he found some or only a few Paces ahead niece twisting anxiously as she gazed upon her home she stole a glance back at him eyes wide I changed my mind I can't do this Naruto saw her legs and knew she was about to flee fortunately for her he prepared for just such an eventuality no you don't he reached around and caught her by the Hem of her cloak stopping her charge short a quick tug yanked her back into his arms she went absolutely berserk thrashing and hissing and spitting like a cat thrust into cold water no her voice warbled as she thrashed in his grasp let me go I'm a monster they won't even recognize me he grit his teeth as her head crashed into his chin you're not a monster yes I am she wailed I'm not even human anymore you're human to me some are stilled in his arms and looked up at him with silver eyes both of them whatever had affected her left eye appeared to have faded was it a result of stress then did her grin features react to anxiety Merlot would have found it all fascinating he would have had answers at least without his mentor he was left to fumble in the dark he didn't know what to say what to do he could only go with his gut you wanted this he hummed in her ear this is your moment not mine get out there and claim your happiness you deserve it yanking her hood back he frog marched her up the porch steps hard hammering in his chest it was here that Summer's resolve faltered again and her nerves got the better of her for an awful moment she looked like a fighting girl not knowing what to say or do what if they don't recognize me oh for the love of Naruto stepped up and slammed his clenched fist against the door nine times in Rapid succession one after the other with each blow the frame jumped on its hinges to Rattle the very house it was impossible to ignore and he knew it some are rounded on him with a loud Yelp why she cried he Shrugged why not it was the proverbial Pebble that started in avalanche a cry of alarm went up inside the house soon echoed by another and another still summer wasn't rightly sure who was in there but it sounded like a stampede Naruto hopped off the porch and left her to the mercy of The Horde Summer's nerves already wound tighter than a tightly coiled spring finally snapped she spun eyes a light why you little Naruto stepped back and all bloody hell broke loose the front door slammed open smacking summer in the spine she Whirled with the hiss and looked down terribly startled a pair of startled silver orbs gazed back looking at those eyes hurt but in a good way she couldn't explain why it felt like her Grim instincts were being tamped down just by being in her presence then her brain caught up with her eyes oh oh wow Ruby had grown up gone was the little last she remembered she looked to be closer to 12 now maybe 13 at a stretch her eyes watered at the site and something in her chest wavered hello sweetie summer said the first thing that came to her mind how have you been o Gods no no no take it back that was so corny Ruby blinked once who are you summer flinched her daughter didn't recognize her she didn't begrudge the girl for that longer hair and The Mask ghastly fragments touched against her skin worked against her here to say nothing of her left arm she'd been so careful to hide it to wrap it up in bandages but there could be nothing done about the white Thorns jutting from her shoulder her voice was a little rougher gone hoarse from spending a decade trapped inside that abomination she wasn't the same person anymore she was a monster no matter what Naruto said this was a mistake she shouldn't have come here sorry about all the Ruckus Naruto saved the day by dropping down to his hunches but your Ruby Rose right the girl blinked yes pretty sure this is your mother he planted a palm on Summer's shoulder and sent her stumbling forward I brought her back say hello summer her numb mind latched onto the words hello summer with those words something clicked Ruby's eyes went terribly wide she blinked once twice Thrice took one step back then another still a tremulous cry fled from the little girl's lips her pale complexion became ghost white and yet despite that she still stretched her hand forward mom is that really you how are you here it was like flicking a switch all of Summer's fear all her anxiety all her Terror evaporated in an instant she moved her legs carried her forward three steps in her arms both human and Grim alike swept down Ruby never stood a chance she barely managed to startle deep before she found herself swept up into a mother's embrace my baby you've gotten so big Ruby inhaled deeply against her summer wins despite herself Ruby was seldom one to shout that was Yang's territory but by the gods when she did dad sure enough the girl threw her head back and screamed at the top of her lungs yum mom's back everyone went mad in the chaos that followed summer never heard Yan coming until she quite suddenly materialized in the doorway her foster daughter was simply there leap fragging Ruby to slam into her chest not one to be left out Ruby hit her legs nearly knocking the Wounded Warrior over altogether their voices Blended together in delighted cries until she couldn't hear a thing indeed summer barely managed to catch herself on the porch railing and steady herself before the next wave came and oh come it did taiyong barreled out the door at speed aha that was Crow behind him and swept her up into his arms he barely had time to kiss her and she him before Crow lost his foot slammed into his back and sent a lot of them tumbling it was too much summer finally lost her balance and pitched backward they all went down in a tangle of arms and limbs Naruto stepped back as they fussed over her there he'd done his part brought summer back to her family safe and sound something scraped against the back of his mind like claws on a couch cushion he closed his eyes against it with a sigh the Grim were coming even now drawn to him like a beacon patch was a small island so it likely had little in the way of any true giants like the Leviathan or a Roman Goliath but he didn't want to take his chances more might very well spawn if he lingered here too long it was time to leave sparing one last glance for summer and her Merry brood he pivoted and walked away well it was nice while it lasted wait a hand snagged his sleeve and dragged him back it didn't belong to Summer Naruto knew it at once by the rough Timbre in their voice as much as the strength in their hand the sheer strength behind it startled him for a moment but only a moment then he planted his feet and quite suddenly Crow brand and found himself in a tug of war with the human equivalent of a mountain blue eyes flashed red let me go not a chance bran went butted heads with him you're not going anywhere until you've answered some questions pal it's fine summer struggled upright and made it to one knee let him go no it's not he snapped at her I'm glad you're back in all some but who the heck is he where have you been all this time Naruto's jaw clicked shut to say anything now was to damn summer if he just kept quiet then maybe just maybe he'd be able to prevent this he'd be damned if he dragged her across Remnant only for this to end in disaster Silver Eyes met blue summer raised her left arm hesitated then peeled back the bandages concealing her left limb in the same moment her left eye bled black and red Ruby gasped Jan topple backward taeyeon winced summer what is and Crow Crow absolutely exploded what the hell he pulled me out of a grim she met the man stare equally lethally that's why I look like this he saved my life more like you put her there oh sure blame me if it makes you feel better Naruto rolled his eyes not like I did this to be kind or anything no not at all he did summer gloured bloody red daggers at him he can control the Grim I saw him he's a good man do you even hear yourself Crow drew his blade he's a Madman lunatic abomination Crow don't Harbinger slammed down it crunched against an open Palm you keep throwing those words around like they mean something for the first time in a long time Naruto felt a new emotion what have I done wrong it felt like anger have I killed anyone no have my allies killed anyone no his eyes began to itch and as he bared his teeth in a snarl yet you demean and denigrate me at every turn fingers tightened around the blade bending the steel beneath you hiss and spit and twist the truth like I'm some kind of raiding imbecile this is your last chance to end this peacefully let me through and I'll be on my way but try and keep me here summer struggled upright no you can't go fear and pain blinded Crows still how do we even know it's really used summer paranoid bird Silver Eyes narrowed you wore a skirt in Beacon there is that good enough for you she absolutely hissed or should I tell everyone about that time we caught you and Meg in the bathroom maybe even that day you went on a panty raid with ack Crow's face turned an alarming shade abuse not that anything but that Taeyang chortled into his wife's shoulder yup definitely her just like that the tension well it didn't exactly evaporate per se not with Crows still glowering at him but it did begin to abate Naruto's gaze swung back to Tayan the one person who had yet to denounce him indeed he barely said a word now yet those sky blue eyes had never left him not at once two blondes regarded one another intently neither moved neither blinked finally one of them yielded you're awfully accepting of all this I'm actually freaking out right now Taeyang leaned back with a sigh but you brought my wife back that makes you family in my book family the word hit him like a punch in the gut if only because he never thought to hear them in his lifetime nor was he the only one family to hell with this Crow all but spat the words you're all rolling over for him I'll get ashbin I'm entirely too sober for this summer raised a hand Crow wait that's not a good idea branman most assuredly did not wait for her with a snarl he vanished in an explosion of feathers and took Wing as a scruffy looking Crow huh name made sense now Naruto blinked after him somewhat awed by the display Nifty trick he could have used that more than once in the past dad I don't get it Ruby finally found her voice at last and turned to regard him who is that is he a bad guy yeah Jan chimed in what gives are you gonna kick his butt or what a blonde brow Rose I'd like to see you try short stack Hey Summer managed to laugh while she lay that's the man who saved me girls why don't you say hello Yang regarded him with red eyes wait you mean he really did that Ruby squinted he wasn't lying Naruto absolutely froze summer could see the gears grinding in their minds silver and lilac eyes flitted from her then to Naruto back to her toward poor Naruto again she saw the proverbial light bulb ignite above Ruby's head Yan was only a heartbeat behind bless her soul Naruto must have seen it too because he balked and raised his arms to defend himself too little too late he took a step backward now wait just a second Ruby Rose vanished in a cloud of petals Jan xiaolong struck him like a falling star preem proudly as her girls began to babble you saved mom really you did thank you thank you Naruto knew he shouldn't stay any longer it hurt him to admit that wounded his sad soul more than words could possibly describe but there it was the truth he'd lingered too long another day and all of patch might well pay the price for his hubris he shouldn't have spent the night at all yet in a moment of weakness he faltered caved to human Comforts and the companionship he'd issued for so long and now he found himself here not wanting to go truly he bore these people no ill will really he didn't he simply endangered them by being here even now he felt nearby Grim tugging at his Consciousness a series of jagged Thorns that pulled harder with each passing hour they were curious for the time being intrigued War not yet willing to risk themselves and approach him outright let alone attack but that would soon change these walls would not protect him they wouldn't protect anyone idiot he muffled a sigh within his palms and pressed his forehead to the kitchen table what were you thinking you knew this would happen are you okay uncle I'm fine Ruby he sighed at the little girl sitting cross-legged across from him without thinking he reached around and patted her head and I'm not your uncle the girl in question once yet remained quite unbowed in the face of his resolve you are Godless Silver Eyes met weary blue yes you are she all but latched onto his hand you saved Mommy that makes you family so her brow furrowed uncle ah the logic of a child how he'd forgotten it all right he chortled Softly uncle can I have my hand back now take backs Ruby refused to release his hand cheeky imp that she was Naruto stifle the patient's sigh have it your own way he didn't know who this Aspen fellow was that Crow had threatened him with but as neither had yet to materialize with the dawn he counted himself lucky he just needed to leave before he met the man crows seemed the sort to carry through with threats certainly when family was involved a faint shifting in his shoulder told him his guest was acting up again he'd given the little creature a name and it seemed stronger for it Casper scene fitting that Naruto turned a weather eye on it stay in there you the little fellow most assuredly did not breakfast is ready he sat with a weary effort one last meal wouldn't hurt surely Naruto wasn't trying to hide for the life of her Lisa lavender couldn't understand she'd managed to ferret out her Cory's name and incredible as it might sound he hadn't fled in the night he had made no effort to leave patch behind to run or even had come and gone allowing her to track him down she had found him easily dares she say too easily a few grease Palms here a kind word there and she was led right to his doorstep well not his doorstep this was the home of one Tayan Shalom a retired Huntsman did he have any idea what who he was harboring probably not made things interesting that did surely a man with such power knew better it was just common sense when your very existence threatened to shatter the Norms of society you didn't stay in one place for long plain common sense that so why was he a coward or a killer Brave or just foolish her knees Twisted idly rubbing together as she neared the worn oak door she just had to know she must know she needed to know Lisa raised her fist and swung knock knock Destiny calls Ashburn pinched the brow of his nose this changed things and yet things must not change to think of grim as people threatened to unbalance the world itself yet to sacrifice a single being to preserve the balance of this world it didn't feel right he had to meet with him get the measure of this man before he damned him nothing less would do someone was knocking on their door a steady tap tap tap drilled Through the Wood like some Wiley woodpecker come to call the sound reverberated loudly through the household a Timeless call that couldn't be ignored they weren't terribly loud about it at that just really really persistent Ruby on a High kind of persistent tap tap tap Jan paid it no mind at first her Focus was fixed firmly on the heaping pile of Pancakes Mommy and Daddy had given her Ruby tried to steal some as she always did which started a fork war between the two of them sure that worked for a while but only a while That Knocking just wouldn't stop really she wanted to smack whoever was on the other side is anyone there a woman's voice came through I'm looking for a man named Naruto Mom and Dad exchanged a glance the blonde in question groaned guess that's my cue I'll get it mom winced you sure yeah this is my problem stay out of sight now it was dad's turn to wince you're right if she's seen like this dad didn't need to be told twice he ushered mom upstairs Ruby darted up the steps after her unwilling to be separated again after so long in absence young barely paid them any mind her attention was fixed firmly on the door she lingered when she really shouldn't have and so she saw it all Uncle Naruto patted to the door with the look of a man grounded for life was he in trouble he looked like he was in trouble why would he be in trouble he knew uncle was a good person he had to be anyone who did the things he did must be good she refused to believe otherwise he brought summer back even if she looked a little different didn't matter mom was Mom that mattered she craned her neck and watched the door creaked open a few inches hello a woman with wild golden eyes and long violet blue hair thrust her head through grinning from ear to ear you must be Naruto her new Uncle recoiled and you are call me Lisa the young woman smiled but made no move to enter Lisa lavender she reached through and shook his hand I'm your friend Naruto I want to tell the world your story his face closed down immediately Lock Stock and Barrel don't have a story to tell see you say that she could but I'm thinking you do after all Lisa leaned forward and whispered something whatever it was had Naruto recoiling with a hiss he tried to shut the door in her face only for her to stick a foot in and deny him her forehead struck his and for an awful moment young couldn't help but wonder if they were going to fight neither batted so much as an eyelash are you mad how did you see that maybe a little Lisa planted a fist on her hip all the best reporters are and I have my sources so what do you say to an interview you don't have a camera her grin reminded Yan of a shark give me five minutes and I'll have a full crew here Naruto's jaw clinched or later if you'd like her hand flitted out passing something to him here's my card a piece of paper flitted between them and she scribbled something on it meet me at this address if you want to talk just remember I saw you first an elbow nudged his ribs I'm happy to sit on this for a day or two don't keep me waiting why me because you're going to change the world I like change Lisa's smile gained an edge I want to be part of that change what kind of change Jan didn't understand she wasn't sure if she wanted to in the end Uncle Naruto took the crazy lady by the arm and escorted her out just as well too because Jan's spied movement in the window that was Chrome now coming down the road she saw him through the glass there was another man behind him a man with a cane she turned just in time to see Lisa bookett Mary golden eyes saw her and winked ciao darling I'll ask this again do you work for Salem no Naruto Alba bit the word out resisting the urge to grind his teeth I didn't even know who she was until a few days ago seated at the Rose Shalom Family Table he found himself the subject of some scrutiny Crow loomed before him summer had taken up a flanking position on his left while Tai had claimed his right doubtless to keep him from fleeing or perhaps they were standing with him he wasn't sure which was worse no doubt they thought they were helping him they weren't you're with her aren't you the former accused you're on her side side what side Naruto grit his teeth at the man before him I'm on Humanity's side and yet Miss Rose is much changed because of you the man whom he now knew to be Ashburn swept an arm towards Summer she's not even human anymore a power like that only Salem could have it I don't care what you believe another headache hit and he blinked back Stars it's the truth ask your questions and leave I would have the truth I'll stop that right now summer clamped a hand down on his before he could speak he saved me give him the benefit of the doubt more like he made you one of them he turned you into a I don't know Crow flailed for the words a hybrid or something Naruto clicked his tongue paranoid old bird let's all calm down Tian thrusts himself between them before they could come to blows we're all friends here are we Naruto glowed bloody red daggers at Crow blasted bird brain doesn't seem to think so much to his Chagrin Ashburn seemed to agree we'll need to run tests at the very least summer whimpered his resolve hardened not happening why ever not the Wise Old Sage frowned if you're as innocent as you claim then surely you wouldn't object to a bit of blood work and be your lab rat he turned his head aside and spat never I don't work for you but you could after the way you and yours have treated me so far his hands slammed down on the table I don't think so he didn't trust any of these people more than that they were coming yet when he tried to stand he found himself blocked once more do you wish to make an enemy of us then Naruto didn't answer him blue eyes Rose to comprehend the ceiling fan above lazily watching it spin round and round he wondered if it would make a decent distraction for what was to come cannot be revealed to the world ashpin's words snapped him back to reality I'm sorry son but I'm afraid we'll have to take you into custody he must have seen the anger in his eyes because he took a short step back from him I cannot take any chances rest assured I will see that you are treated humanely Panic beat its wings within his chest and Naruto felt his shoulders quiver no no cages not ever again it wasn't fair he just wanted to help and they were going to lock him up no he couldn't stay not when it would put everyone in danger you're making a mistake he lowered his gaze and looked upon the face that threatened to undo all the good he'd done I'm not your enemy ashbin I don't want to be your enemy but you're going to make one of me at this rate this from the man who leads Grim his words fell on deaf ears your Deeds say otherwise Naruto grid his teeth look I'll do it for you a clawed finger stabbed outward the Grim are attracted to me his words struck the heart shattering whatever argument they might have made they'll find me here sooner or later I need to get gone before that happens before they he swallowed once steeled himself and said the damning words before they attack there he'd said it any moment now they'd kick him out this would be over and he could go on his merry way I'm afraid it's not that simple how can we believe what you've just said yes it is Naruto clicked his teeth as he raised his gaze you can make it simple you have that power let me go and you'll never hear from me again something rattled the house something big everyone jumped summer swore what was that just now enough Naruto's side I'm leaving all hell broke loose Crow made a reckless grab for his arm Casper burst out of a shoulder and shrieked at him the poor drunkard recoiled and staggered back hit the table then went crashing over it as the Grim gave him a good hard shove Naruto saw his chance for what it was and made a beeline for the window Aspen intercepted him he swept his feet sending him tumbling down into Crow Tangled Up in one another either men were in any shape to stop him nor what came barreling through the front door An Almighty crunch filled the air and he had all of an instant to raise an arm as the wall behind him evaporated just as well because he turned to find himself face to face with a massive Beowulf are you kidding
