AN* Guess I'm making up for lost time huh? Two updates for this story in less than a month, things are looking good. Thanks to all of you that came back and were so patient with my lengthy absence, here's hoping the new chapters continue to please.

The Shuzen Family

Walking into the dining room Naruto felt his mouth start to water at the sight of all of the various delicacies that were arrayed around the table. Naruto wasn't even able to identify half of the dishes but the smell alone promised this to be a rare treat that the blond had no intention of missing out on.

"Come on, eat up!" Fangfang's father laughed as he led them in "This is the first time that Fangfang's brought friends home so enjoy yourselves!"

"Well most of them haven't recognized me as one of their friends ye-" Fangfang began before receiving a kidney punch from Kurumu who had placed another hand around his shoulder.

"What are you talking about! We're friends, best friends!" Kurumu laughed.

"Let's eat." Mizore nodded as they each began piling food up on their plates.

"I hope you were warned about my appetite." Naruto laughed as he piled food up on his plate and began devouring it like it was going to disappear at any second.

"Being full in Chinese etiquette is leaving some food on the table you know." Lingling remarked with a smirk.

"Gahaha! I like you guys!" Fangfang's father laughed as he slapped Naruto's back "So, can you handle some alcohol?"

Naruto smirked as he grabbed the bottle and took a long pull, much to the girl's shock as they had never seen Naruto drink before.

"You have excellent taste." Naruto laughed as he passed back the bottle "I suppose proper introductions are in order, Naruto Uzumaki."

"Fei-Hung Wong, and my lovely wife Tim-Tim Wong." Fei-Hung smiled as he took a drink himself "It's good to know my son has made such a good friend."

"He's a good friend to have." Naruto smiled honestly.

"You know your father is exactly what I thought a mafia head would like." Kurumu said to Fangfang.

"Really? He's actually a nice father. I mean he fell in love with and married the daughter of a rival organization. They're like the passionate Romeo and Juliet couple." Fangfang smiled.

"Well I doubt Romeo ever looked like that." Kurumu mused "But your mom is definitely pretty enough to be Juliet."

"No, no. Actually my mom's-" Fangfang began, right as Touhou Fuhai leapt across the table stealing food from everyone's plates.

"The food is always better when we have guests!" He laughed as he ate.

"My plate is empty!" Yukari exclaimed in shock.

"Give us back our food!" Kurumu shouted in outrage. Before Naruto could move to steal it back four senbon needles went flying into the side of the old Demon Lord's head. Glancing over Naruto saw that they had come from Tim-Tim who had an angry and dangerous aura around her.

"Even though it doesn't look like it, she's a master of martial arts so you shouldn't make her angry." Fei-Hung laughed.

"Eat quietly." Tim-Tim hissed at Touhou Fuhai who complied without complaint.

Naruto grinned at this as he glanced over at the others who had gotten their food back and were resuming eating, now a bit slower. His eyes lingered on Moka who's mouth was moving ever so slightly, showing she was talking with the other Moka through the seal. Naruto barely saw the movement, and would have missed it completely if he hadn't been looking at Moka as Touhou Fuhai appeared right next to the vampire.

"Oh that's interesting, you can talk to your rosary." the old youkai noted as Moka moved back in surprise and Naruto noted she restrained herself from lashing out with a punch "So this is the seal? And it's starting to break. You should get it fixed as soon as possible."

"He is good." Naruto noted.

"Of course, who do you think he is?" Lingling remarked as she sipped her tea.

"Even though he's a rotten old man... Guess it's to be expected from one of the Demon Lords." Yukari nodded.

"I'm not rotting away." Lingling remarked idly getting a smirk from Naruto at the bad joke.

"As... As expected of Touhou Fuhai-dono." Moka remarked, still off balance from the old man's sudden appearance "Then we can cut the small talk. I've come here hoping you can help me fix the seal."

"Hmph, then first of all wear this. We'll talk after that." Touhou Fuhai said as he held up a bag.

"What's this?" Moka asked.

"Touhou Fuhai-sama! Don't tell me you are getting her to wear that legendary costume!" Fangfang shouted as he stood up.

"Legendary costume?" Naruto remarked with a raised eyebrow.

"It's better if you don't wear that, it's very dangerous." Tim-Tim added, setting off more warning bells in Naruto's head.

"Interesting. All I have to do is wear this?" Moka asked as took the bag.

"Yeah, and one more important thing. Once you wear that, don't forget to add "-daccha" to the end of all your sentences."

Moke changed clothes quickly enough and Naruto's jaw dropped at the sight before him as Moka stood there in a tiger striped bikini with a pair of horns on her head.

"And, how is this legendary... daccha?" Moka asked, looking extremely uncomfortable and not looking Naruto's way.

"You're the best! Next call me Darling! Call me Darling when addressing me!" Touhou Fuhai exclaimed as he leapt towards Moka.

"What do you think your doing-daccha Darling?!" Moka exclaimed as she slammed a fist into his head and slammed Touhou Fuhai to the ground.

"You see, Touhou Fuhai-sama really loves manga." Fangfang laughed sheepishly "Especially in these last few years. He's even gotten into cosplay. So he's gotten rather out of hand. I'm sorry."

Shadows lifted up to cover Moka as Naruto now leaned down next to the demon lord, his eyes having turned into red slits as he spoke.

"The next time you do something like that to my girlfriend I am going to leave you in a crater."

"You don't understand." The demon lord said as he stood back up "You see, I was really popular with the girls back in the day. But as time went on I got older and older and before I realized it women started to leave me. And that was when I realized the truth... 2D girls last forever! They would never betray me!"

"Be quiet you 2D otaku." Tim-Tim sighed.

"Ahh! Your skin is so beautiful!" Touhou Fuhai declared as he managed to get past the shadows and hold Moka in a hug. Naruto didn't even move to stop the knife hand strike that was about to pierce the old youkai's head as he continued "It's been so long... Now that I think about it that person's skin was like this too."

"That person?" Moka asked as she paused her attack.

"You're Moka Akashiya right? I knew the moment I saw you." Touhou Fuhai remarked as he continued to hold her.

"Who... Who is it? Who is the person you're talking about?" Moka asked in shock.

"Though your auras are different you've grown up to be exactly like her. Exactly like your mother, Akasha."

"Moka's mother?" Naruto blinked as the girls all traded looks "How do you know her?"

"I'll explain everything back at my home. That is where we will begin the work." Touhou Fuhai declared as he walked off, leaving the rest with no choice but to follow after him, though not before Moka had changed back into her normal clothes.


"Your mother, Akasha and I are old friends." Touhou Fuhai began once they were in his mansion and he had set up a few things "And I've also heard a lot of things from Mikogami, your headmaster. And how several years ago.. your mother disappeared."

Naruto blinked at this revelation, not really knowing all that much about Moka's family or past, both being topics that she avoided.

"So you knew." Moka sighed before she continued speaking "But I don't know the reason either. My mother left me all of a sudden when I was small. And she even destroyed her photos and diaries, anything that was connected to her. In the end, all that she left me was this rosary seal. So that's why I want to protect this seal, even if it costs me my freedom."

"Moka..." Naruto whispered in shock.

"She is made of sterner stuff then I ever gave her credit for." Jubi noted, a hint of admiration in his voice.

"Very well, I accept your offer and shall repair your seal." Touhou Fuhai declared as he began the ceremony "Akasha was... A strong yet sad woman who carried a heavy burden." Finishing the basic forms with the blade he stabbed the charm and placed it in the fire "The reason she sealed your powers was probably because she didn't want to drag you into it." With that he lifted the burning impaled charm from the fire and turned to face Moka.

"Burden? What do you" Moka began.

"Stay quiet. This is where things get serious." Touhou Fuhai stated firmly as he placed the tip of the sword against the gem in the rosary "Release Seal!"

As the charm was disintegrated the rosary began emitting lights from it and Naruto's jaw dropped at what he saw before him.

"This, this is insane." He said in shock.

"You can understand this?" Touhou Fuhai asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I'm an amateur compared to you. But I have studied sealing and am familiar with some of the more complicated works. This, this is an entirely different beast then anything I have ever seen."

"This is the extent that a sealing master can create." Jubi remarked "And this, this surpasses anything that you could have hoped to have learned yourself back in the Elemental Nations."

"A seal of this kind is a type of filter." Touhou Fuhai began explaining "This is embedded into your soul and "limits" your personality and abilities. To put it in simple terms if you applied this seal to a "Strong Pervert" and prohibited the "Strong" all you would be left with is a normal pervert."

"I feel like casting that filter on Gin and Haji." Mizore noted quietly, getting a chuckle from Yukari.

"Then they'd just become normal trash." she giggled.

"Anyways this looks to be a difficult one." Touhou Fuhai continued "There are some difficult sections here and there, and it looks like this seal was disengaged very regularly, leading to a weakening that caused this damage."

"That's probably my fault then." Naruto sighed "We would remove the seal to train together. I never realized it would get this bad."

"There is likely no way you could have known before hand without seeing the intricacies of the seal itself. And with proper repairs it shouldn't cause any more problems." Touhou Fuhai remarked before he frowned "What's this?" Lifting the magnifying glass up more he leaned in closer to the seal "What? This isn't what we talked about. I didn't hear about this... This is... Mikogami! You hid this from me didn't you?! This isn't a seal to surpress power! This is"

Before the Demon Lord could finish that line of thought the light coming from the rosary wavered before turning into lines of light that pierced through Touhou Fuhai, though they did no damage to him.

"What happened?!" Naruto shouted as he was about to move closer.

"Stay back!" Touhou Fuhai shouted "It's a rejection signal! The seal is closing itself! If you touch the light you'll be dragged into the seal!"

The light shout out in several different directions now and Naruto moved without conscious thought as he knocked Kurumu and Yukari back as the light pierced him and Mizore as well. Naruto didn't know what happened next as suddenly he found himself standing on a rocky cliff face staring towards a large castle that he quickly remembered from the beach.

"That... That looks like the castle Moka and Kokoa made..." Naruto muttered as he glanced around and stopped when he saw a young girl on the rocks above him.

"Hey... Who're you?" she asked.

Naruto blinked as he looked at the girl, who looked like the released state of Moka only a great deal younger, and dressed in an elegant short dress. Combined with the fact that there was the castle that Moka had grown up with behind him and the knowledge that he had been pulled into the seal, Naruto realized that this was likely a memory that Moka had, and screwing anything up with foreknowledge could have a very drastic and dangerous chain reaction to the mind of his vampire girlfriend.

"How did you get here? This area belongs to the Shuzen Family." she continued as she stared at him.

"Well you see I just got lost." Naruto chuckled rubbing the back of his head "I'm on a training journey and seem to have lost my way."

"A training journey? All the way out here? You're very suspicious. Tell me your name." the young Moka demanded as she crouched down to be more at eye level.

"Moka!" A voice called out getting the young girl to turn and look away as Naruto felt a hand grab the back of his shirt and pull him away before the person could arrive, or Moka look back to see him "What's wrong Moka? You just ran off all of a sudden?"

"Mother! There's an intruder! He's this really suspicious guy who said he got lost."

"Intruder?"

"Here look! Ah! He's gone! He was just here a second ago!"

"Are you sure you weren't dreaming?" Moka's mother asked.

As this conversation went on Naruto knelt on the flying carpet that Touhou Fuhai had created along next to Mizore.

"So you two are alright. Good." Naruto whispered.

"Do you understand where we are?" Touhou Fuhai asked quietly.

"Moka's seal." Naruto nodded "We screw up anything here we hurt Moka."

"Good. Glad you're not a complete idiot." Touhou Fuhai nodded "This entire place is within Moka's soul and created from her memories."

"So that was Moka when she was young." Mizore noted "Then the woman next to her is"

"Akasha Bloodriver. Her mother." Touhou Fuhai stated. Glancing up Naruto blinked in shock at what he saw and glanced at Mizore.

"Am I seeing things or does Akasha look exactly like Moka when the seal is working properly?"

"No, she does look like Outer Moka." Mizore nodded in agreement.

Touhou Fuhai made an intrigued sound as he moved the carpet to follow after Moka and Akasha as they returned to the castle where a young Kokoa was waiting to challenge Moka to a battle. Smirking Naruto watched as in a matter of moments Moka had taken the poleaxe that Kokoa had been using and bested her before a young Kaluha, who was busying sweeping up the courtyard, could finish talking about how nothing good would come out of fighting.

"Or rather, maybe you should go a little easier on her Moka-chan." Kaluha giggled as Moka put a foot on top of the downed Kokoa.

"It's just as Kaluha-chan says." Akasha smiled "You three are sisters, so you should get along with each other. And besides there is one more important person coming to visit us today, and I want you all to get along with this person as well. Okay?"

"Didn't Moka say that she had three sisters?" Naruto asked.

"Yes. There were four siblings with different mothers." Mizore nodded "This isn't like what we heard."

"That can't be helped." Touhou Fuhai noted "I said so before right? This is the world inside the seal. In other words there are sealed memories. Moka probably doesn't even remember most of what you see here."

"Which raises the question of why..." Naruto frowned.

"The mother... She disappears after this doesn't she?" Mizore mused "Then I wonder if something happens? And it has to be something so big that she erases Moka's memories." Pausing Mizore glanced over at Naruto "What do you want to do? This is a secret that even Moka is unaware of. Even though we didn't come here on purpose, are you sure that we should be watching this?"

Naruto frowned as he tried to ask the Jubi for it's advice before finding an empty echo and the frown changed into a stunned expression.

"Um, the Jubi isn't here."

"What?" Mizore blinked in shock.

"Jubi?" Touhou Fuhai asked.

"The demon that's sealed inside of me. He didn't get pulled along into the seal with me. Which means he is still in my body."

Before more could be said on this the sound of a dog barking distracted them.

"Oh, that's unusual. Grey is barking." Kaluha noted.

"I wonder if it's the visitor that Mother was talking about." Moka added as they started the gates. Touhou Fuhai moved them just enough to see a young dark haired girl kneeling down next to the dog that was barking at her. She was speaking but it was so quiet that Naruto could barely make out what she was saying, something about how the dog was still a puppy and brave, and about biting. Frowning at this he watched as Moka and her sisters walked over and the dog was running around Moka in a scared panic.

"Earl Grey? Why are you acting so scared? You're supposed to be a guard dog, that's shameful!"

"Heh, so he's called Earl Grey. I like that. I've always wanted to own a dog." the girl giggled as she walked closer with her suitcase in her left hand and having removed her hat wih her right causing Earl Grey to look even more scared of the dark haired girl.

"Who... are you?" Moka asked.

"Huh? Didn't you hear? I'm going to be staying here from today onwards. So I guess that means I'm going to be a new part of the family." she said as she looked around and seemed to be taking in the massive castle.

"New family?" The three sisters remarked.

"Hello, I'm Akua Shuzen." the vampire said "It's nice to meet you."

It was after this introduction that they made their way inside and Touhou Fuhai had to move them again to a window that would allow them to watch as the four younger girls made their way inside where Akasha was waiting and led them to a tall man in what would be best described as older Victorian clothing.

"Thank you for coming. Welcome to the Shuzen Family." He began before bowing politely to the newcomer "I am the head of this household Issa Shuzen. It is nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you." Akua said as she bowed in a more traditional Chinese manner "I have been waiting for this day. I am Akua, it is an honor to finally meet you, father."

"So that's Moka's dad." Naruto noted "I'm intimidated already."

"Really?" Mizore asked "I thought you weren't intimidated by anything."

"When it comes to father's it is the solemn duty of every boyfriend to be intimidated by them." Naruto said sagely as he kept an eye on the six vampires walking towards a much larger room with more people gathered within "One of Jiraiya's few pearls of wisdom."

Touhou Fuhai made a chuckling sound from behind them as he moved the carpet to a better position and they were able to hear Issa continuing to talk.

"As you may already know, this mansion is the only place in Japan that houses vampires. If you include guests and the ones that drop by every once in awhile, you could say that almost all the vampires in this country are related to the Shuzen family." Issa explained "This isn't what you'd call our occupation, but sometimes there are some "worthy people" who will receive rewards for taking care of "certain tasks". Some would call us the "problem solvers" of the underworld. Well, from today onward you are also a member of the Shuzen family, so make yourself at home. Now then have you spoken to your new sisters yet?"

"Yeah, a little." Akua nodded as she looked fully at the three young girls before speaking "My mother passed away when I was little and I've been living with a relative in China. I thought that I'd never find another family, and I was already fortunate enough to have met our father. But for him to accept me into the family, I am truly grateful."

"I'm Kaluha. Now that you're here I guess I'm the second eldest." the darker skinned daughter smiled warmly

"I'm Moka, I'll be turning nine soon." Moka stated, seeming to be unsure of the new addition to the family.

"I'm Kokoa. I would've preferred a younger sister though." Kokoa remarked, clearly not fond of still being the youngest. Behind them Akasha smiled at the scene while above Naruto had a small smile himself.

"And that makes four."

"That's surprising. Moka looks like she's enjoying this." Mizore noted.

"She does indeed." Naruto nodded.

"I thought that the Shuzen family estate would have been a more terrifying place." Mizore added.

"No. You are not totally wrong on that thought." Tohou Fuhai remarked "Vampires are a species that thrive on battles. They are strong and feared and there probably isn't a single cell in their body that will accept defeat. This place is where creatures like that gather. In other words a castle of demons. Even in the underground world of China the name Shuzen is very well respected. In this country, there probably isn't a more terrifying place."

"Not too surprising." Naruto nodded "Vampires are warriors, and that would attract hate as well as fame. If anyone thought that they were weak they would attack them here, but by showing their strength, putting it out in the open and using it to intimidate those that would try and fight them. It's an effective counter to stopping needless conflict. But it would also have to be something that they would do among themselves as well."

As though predicting the future Issa spoke up again.

"Now then Akua, this may be a bit of a rush, but could you show me your powers as one of us?"

"Ehh? Father?" Akua blinked in surprise.

"Kaluha, stand forward." Issa commanded, getting the two to face off against each other "Now then my daughters, there's no need to hold back. Kill each other."

"See?" Tohou Fuhai nodded.

"Yeah. Harsh." Naruto nodded "But practical. I don't like it but I understand it. This is probably just another day in this house."

The two young vampires circled each other a moment as Kaluha's eyes began to water.

"I'm sorry. I really don't like fighting. But... Forgive me Akua... onee-san."

"Aiya. You can cry after killing me." Akua grinned as she launched forward and with a twist of her body delivered a powerful punch that Kaluha had barely blocked. Akua didn't waste any time or movement as she continued the offensive with a dizzying combination of fist and elbow strikes that kept Kaluha on the defensive,

"No! Stay away!" Kaluha shouted as she tried to counter with a knife hand thrust.

"No! It's a trap Kaluha-neesan!" Moka shouted.

Akua blocked the strike, knocking it above her head with her right hand as she twisted her body a bit and struck with a left handed punch "Youho Saishushi(Twist Step Flickering Hand Strike)." The blow connected with devastating force, lifting Kaluha off the ground a bit as blood came out of her mouth and bits splattered on Akua's face "I guess, the one who should apologize is me, Kaluha-san."

"Wait for it." Naruto chuckled.

Kaluha's very presence shifted as she started to have a tantrum. Her counter was swift as she slammed a left handed blow down that would have crushed Akua's skull if she hadn't dodged backwards, taking only a glancing blow instead as the ground where she had been was shattered.

"Aiya. You're really tough." Akua remarked as blood spurted out of the cut on her right shoulder "A normal person wouldn't even be able to stand for three days after taking a hit from that." Akua looked at Kaluha a bit harder as she began her tantrum in full before speaking "Hmm... Looks like I misunderstood you. Your tears aren't from sorrow, but are a form of atonement. In other words you've made the decision to kill your opponent without any hesitation? That's wonderful." Akua smiled now as she shifted into a different fighting stance "I have a feeling we are going to become great sisters!"

Just before the two could clash again Issa clapped his hands together loudly enough to stop the two.

"Thank you Akua. I now know how strong you are, it's beyond my expectations. You must be tired from your trip, rest for the rest of the day."

"Thank you very much father." Akua said as she bowed to Issa while Kaluha let out an exhale of relief.

"Hmph. That wasn't that amazing." Kokoa declared "Kaluha-neesan wasn't even serious yet."

"No. The same could be said for her opponent." Moka remarked, getting Kokoa to have a teary eyed look at her older sister's remark, while the two eldest shook hands and seemed to put the battle behind them.

"Issa-sama. I am sorry to bother you at this time but..." A vampire called out, kneeling down in a bow as he entered the room.

"What is it?" Issa asked as he glanced over.

"Actually... There are signs that someone may have entered the barrier around the mansion. Shall I look into it?"

This led to quiet mutterings from the various adult vampires within the rooom before Issa commented.

"Hmph, let them do as they please. They are probably just another bunch of fools who have come for my life. If they can actually make it here I will personally be their opponent." Issa declared as he walked off "Akasha, I leave things to you."

"Yes." she nodded.

"Well this is interesting..." Naruto hummed in thought as he glanced over at Tohou Fuhai "This is a memory, so the intruders shouldn't be us even though we can interact with things here to a degree... Right?"

"Right." Tohou Fuhai nodded as he smoked his pipe "This all happened in the past, meaning that us being here should not cause any disturbances. Right now you could say that we are all having the same dream, while our bodies are lifelessly sleeping in the real world."


"Well this is irritating." Jubi declared from where Naruto's body was laying.

"Jubi! What's happened?" Kurumu shouted as they had finished laying the bodies on a sheet.

"Naruto got dragged in the seal with Mizore and that old pervert." Jubi grumbled "But due to the seal around me I stayed behind. Unfortunately I can't control Naruto's body without his permission and trying to override that part of the seal could cause a cascading failure that would kill him, and release me into the world."

"I thought that you wanted to be free?" Yukari asked.

"Not like that. And releasing me into the world as it is now could create a very bad situation that would get all of you killed, and me as well most likely." Jubi noted "Now, you can calm down a bit. The seal that those three were dragged into won't cause them to die right away and as long as they are careful wherever they are they should be able to return after whatever is sealed within there runs its course."

"Are you sure?" Lingling asked.

"Sure as I can be. I am not a sealing master like Tohou Fuhai, but I have been around a very long time and I saw first hand a number of very impressive seals over the years, ones that would make even that old pervert's jaw drop at their intricacies. No, wait it out for a few hours. If there is no change after that then we can discuss other options."

"Wh-what?! They did?!" Fangfang shouted in the phone.

"Fangfang what's wrong? You are being very loud." Lingling noted, as close to concern as she could get.

"It's big trouble neesan! I just got a call from the butlers, the Miu family have stormed into father's mansion!" Fangfang explained.

"Well shit." Jubi groaned, summarizing the entire situations "We better hope that your parents can keep them busy for awhile because we are down two of our strongest fighters now."

"It does likely have something to do with Fairy Tale." Fangfang agreed with a worried frown.

"I don't even want to think about it, but if they do manage to get through father and the others it won't take them long to get here. If we are going to run we should do it now." Lingling remarked.

"No." Jubi stated firmly "We wouldn't be able to get far enough away to hide from them and we have no idea if moving them too much will make matters worse when they manage to return. Yukari, Kurumu. The two of you have been training with Naruto for over a year, you both should have more then enough skill to handle the Miu family, especially if Lingling and Fangfang fight with you."

The four traded looks as they looked down at the Jubi.

"You really think that we can win?" Fangfang asked.

"Win? That depends on their numbers." Jubi stated calmly "But we aren't trying to win, we are trying to buy time. Kurumu, get an illusion ready. At the first sign that they have gotten past the Wong family I want you to create an illusion of us escaping. We try and lure them away from here. If that doesn't work then we are going to have to fight."

The four nodded as they moved the four unconscious bodies out of the line of sight and dimmed most of the lights in Tohou Fuhai's mansion. Once finished Kurumu knelt near the door and began to make the mental shape of the illusion.


Within the seal the three had moved from the roof of the castle down back near where Naruto had first appeared as they tailed Moka, who had gone out looking for Naruto.

"Where did I meet that intruder. It should have been around here." Moka muttered "I don't know why but I can't get him out of my head. Who was that guy?"

"I guess I left an impression." Naruto chuckled weakly.

"You have that affect on people. Particularly me and Moka." Mizore said quietly next to him, getting a small blush out of the blond.

"So since the memory has changed a bit, won't that cause a discrepancy?" Naruto asked.

"No, just like how you can forget things or how some things become more beautiful the more time passes, memories are not an ever lasting thing." Tohou Fuhai explained "However it should be alright. Just because the two of you met for a little while doesn't mean it will impact her mind overly much. Whatever the original reason might have been Moka is walking down this path now. As long as we don't interfere any more it will all be okay."

Naruto nodded his acceptance of this as they continued to watch.

"He's not here. Guess I should give up." Moka sighed, just as a man slipped up behind her and placed a cloth over her mouth that seemed to incapacitate the young vampire. Naruto was grinding his teeth as he watched the scene play out as the five men took Moka into the woods before throwing her into a tree. They soon started to speak and Naruto glanced over at Tohou Fuhai.

"Translate please? I don't understand Chinese."

"Hmph, uncultured swine." Tohou Fuhai huffed in annoyance.

"This swine will punt you into next week if you keep acting like that." Naruto countered as he watched one of the men crouch down in front of Moka and start speaking in Japanese now.

"Hey princess, can you tell me something?" He asked as he gripped the top of head to hold her up "Did a girl dressed in black come to this house this morning? Her Japanese name is Akua. I've come here to kill that girl."

Moka didn't answer as one of the other youkai stepped up, still speaking Chinese, but the intent was clear that he wanted to kill Moka and use her to lure out Akua. The other three agreed with this idea and the leader of the bunch seemed to disagree at first before giving the okay, causing the one that had spoke to grab Moka's leg and lift her up as he prepared to cut her down with the sword he carried. As he swung the blade down Naruto had to restrain the urge to act as he caught the flicker of movement that was Akua showing up, her fingers going through the youkai's head, killing him before he could harm Moka. The look on Akua's face was one of bloodlust and Naruto felt a shiver run down his spine as he looked at her, his instincts telling him that she was very dangerous.

"No way... What was that move..." Tohou Fuhai muttered and Naruto glanced at the smaller youkai and noting the look of shock on his face.

The leader of the Chinese youkai spoke to Akua some more but the girl seemed to ignore him as she turned and focused solely on Moka.

"Are you alright Moka?" Akua asked as she knelt down next to her "Did they hit you? Did they do anything else to you? I'm so sorry. I finally get a sister, and because of me you had to go through all of this."

The leader shouted at Akua in anger and as he was about to attack Akua moved between them, somehow slicing though the four remaining youkai with ease, as though swinging the world's sharpest sword as they fell to the ground in pieces.

"If you have something against me, then come after me right from the start. You guys are weaklings who can't even do that. So don't you dare touch my sister." Akua said as she flicked the blood off of her hand before moving and hugging Moka close to her "I'm so glad you're alright. Come now, let's go home."

"Yeah..." Moka nodded, clearly stunned and awed by her oldest sister's abilities "Thank you, for saving me, Akua-neesan."
