Child Of God

Kurama and Esdeath sat inside the castle and discussed of who to recruit next. Esdeath had a few interesting candidates, but nothing confirmed yet. She always wanted Kurama's insight on these things since he was her oldest friend here in these lower worlds.

"Lady Esdeath, I have something I wanted to bring to your attention. It's about my siblings." Kurama said and piqued her interest.

"Yeah, I remember we talked about going back for them someday. You think that time has come?" Esdeath said and put down the newspaper she was reading.

"Yeah, I do. I don't know if they wanna join us here, but I do know, that they want freedom. They despise captivity like I did when I was stuck inside that awful woman," Kurama said. He hated the temper that his last host had.

"Go anytime. As long as they want freedom, you can just kill the host if you'd like." Esdeath said. She didn't feel a need to follow along on this adventure. She had other plans to take care off, like planning the groups future, and their name. All very important stuff.

"Thank you, Lady Esdeath. I will go right away," Kurama said and stood up. This was clearly something that mattered greatly to him.

"I'll go with you, I'm very bored," Acnologia came walked with Pitou following behind him. He was even yawning.

Kurama looked at him and laughed, "That's fine," he was smiling from ear to ear while walking towards the stairs leading down towards the gate. Acnologia walked after, and Pitou followed him.

Inside the building that belonged to Fairy tail, Sabo and Wendy sat alone at a table and talked. They were done with their insane day out on the town with their babysitter. Erza had left them alone now, but Sabo's mind was somewhere else at the moment.

He had gotten a telepathic message that Netero recruited someone without the boss's approval. So right now he was just worried whether the old man was dead or not.

"S-Sir Sabo? Are you okay?" Wendy noticed the change in him. He had been all smiles and sneaky looks, but suddenly it all stopped and he mostly looked worried.

"Sorry, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired after today. Running after Erza who kept dragging you everywhere has been a little exhausting. That's all." He said and smiled. Well, he smiled as best he could without it looking too awkward.

"I'm sorry. I didn't plan on her joining us, I swear!" Wendy whispered the last part, and almost yelled the second half of the sentence.

"No, it's fine... Really. I don't mind at all. It was fun seeing you have fun." Sabo said and his face grew a little red, so to salvage his cool image he faked coughed into his hand and took control of his emotions again.

"I'm glad you think so," Wendy said and looked up at Sabo slowly. There was some hesitation in her movements, but both of them were still very nervous.

"Yeah, how about we do a mission tomorrow? I'm pretty strong so I can help out a lot." Sabo said and flexed a little.

"S-Sure!" Wendy experienced an intense moment of excitement and she smiled brightly. This was the moment she waited for.

"Okay! I'll be at the guild bright and early tomorrow." Sabo said as the sunset happened outside the window located behind him. The guild became darker, and the in-door lights activated and offered its lights.

A bright beam made of black and white energy struck the ground and destroyed the ground it struck. Four people appeared when the beam disappeared back into the heavens. The area went back to darkness after the beam had illuminated the darkness of the night.

"So this is the world you originated from Kurama?" Seilah said while looking around in interest. Acnologia was just sneering at her from the side.

"Why are you even here?" He asked Seilah with contempt. And behind him stood Pitou, also staring at Seilah in anger. In her eyes, everyone was out for her master's love, and only one could have that, and it was her.

"Chances to explore a new world, who wouldn't jump onto that occasion. There is so much I could learn here. So many unique beings to experiment on." Seilah being a pure demon rave from Esdeath's homed world, she didn't show emotions at all. Only when in front of Netero would she show gratitude. Everywhere else, she was an evil, twisted demon with an interest in torture.

"That's fine. But if you do experiments on my siblings, I WILL kill you." Kurama said casually, but being the strongest being here, his words held authority that even Seilah and Acnologia couldn't ignore.

"Siblings, off-limits. Got it!" Seilah said with her bland and neutral tone of voice.

"We have guests approaching," Pitoue said and looked towards the east. And of course the three of them being commander levels, they had already noticed, they just didn't care because of how weak the approaching party was.

Soon enough, a few dozen ninjas landed on branches all around them, and every possible exit was closed off. And all the newly arrived ninjas, all had pretty impressive power levels. They were nothing like the commanders, but a few of them matched Pitou pretty well.

"Kurama, Is that you?" A yellow-haired ninja lowered his weapon and jumped down from his branch. No said anything, but all the ninjas present heightened their alert levels now that this man approached the strange group.

"Long time no see, boy," Kurama said and smiled wildly. No other ninja knew the nine tails name so they didn't connect the dots. But the height of these people was nothing to scoff at. One was four meters, another six meters, and the final one was also four meters tall.

"Good to see you again. But what are you doing here? I haven't heard a peep from you or Lady Rory in years. Where have you been?" Minato was quite excited to see this man again. And his guards were obviously also interested in the newly arrived guest's identities.

"Kakashi! Take your team and scout the surroundings. Make sure no other village gets knowledge of this event." Minato said to the silver-haired ninja standing up on a branch.

"Yes, Lord Hokage." He waved his finger and himself with a few other ninjas jumped away from their location.

"Minato. Why haven't you rid yourself of Danzo's people yet?" Kurama asked a random question, and it shocked the Hokage greatly since he was one of the few to know exactly what happened to Danzo.

"What do you mean, Kurama?" Minato automatically went on guard when he heard that name.

Kurama said nothing, he simply disappeared in a burst of speed. He appeared behind a ninja among all the ones here. His massive hand came down and grabbed hold off his whole head before anyone could react. He lifted him up in the air and stared at the Hokage.

"This boy is nothing but a tool. His mind is not his own, and his mission is the assassination of the Hokage." Kurama said and pierced the unknown ninja's c.h.e.s.t with his hand. Blood splattered and covered the ground. The ninjas around Minato all flared their chakras and prepared to kill Kurama.

"Halt! No one move." Minato said and everyone stopped. He had incredible respect among his men. He was one of the most successful Hokage's because he was so loved and respected among his people. So the ninjas here all trusted him with their lives, and vice versa, so when he said to halt, everyone trusted that he knew what to do.

"Kurama, how do you know that?" Minato asked and sheathed his weapon.

"He was instilled into your protection detail last week. My companion here is quite skilled in mind reading." Kurama pointed to Seilah. She showed no emotion or any physical reaction. She just stood there in silence.

"I don't know why I should, but I trust you. But next time come to me first before you kill any more of my people." Minato said and waved his hand. A ninja jumped down and performed a fire jutsu to burn the corpse.

"Now that we have solved that little dispute, may I invite you to the village? Our chunnin exams are about to begin, so why don't you stay and watch. My son is participating in it." Minato smiled widely at the mention of his son. No one seemed to remember or care about the man just killed and burned to death. Many of the people here were immune to death as they had fought in at least one war in their lifetime.

"I suppose I could. What do you say?" Kurama looked back at the ones that joined him. Acnologia and Seilah nodded to it. They had no other plans for the moment.

"Lord Hokage, the area is secured." Kakashi came back and bowed down as he delivered his news. He smelled the burnt corpse in the air, but didn't say anything about it.

"Good, thank you Kakashi. We will escort Kurama and his party back to the village. Move out!" The ninjas all jumped away to secur the route back to the village. There wasn't something like too much security when it came to the Hokage.
