The Comeback of Heroes!!! (Book 2) [Naruto Fairy Tail Crossover Fanfic]

Chapter 93

*First person pov*

We were jumping from tree to tree. "Keiko, are we anywhere near?" I asked her. "His location isn't- wait! Naruto is coming! Hide!" Keiko shouts and dives into a branch with lots of leaves. I follow her and there Naruto was. There was a bunch shadow clones running past us, jumping from tree to tree, going in different directions. So.... This part already. I sniff the air to make sure and sure enough, Duckbutt's scent is all over the place. Remember, I am a dragon slayer, my senses are enhanced. I scrunch up my nose in disgust and sighed. "We should stay clear of Leaf on this mission. Let's go." I said once all the Narutos were gone. We continued on our way, until Keiko freaked out. "Oh god oh god oh god!! Weasel's position multiplied!! There are 4 Weasels, and one of them is right over THERE!!!" Keiko shouts as she points at a tree. I raise a brow as I looked at the tree. "Umm..." I turned back to Keiko. "He's there!" Keiko yelled, still pointing at the tree. "Keiko, you need to get your eyes checked. That is definitely not a human being, but a tree!" I told her, pointing at the tree. "He's behind it you idiot!!" Keiko shouts and I blush in embarrassment. "Oh..." I turn back to the hiding place of Weasel. "Come out now, we know you're there." I said out loud. Weasel came out, his sharingan off surprisingly. "Heya, how have you been doing?" I asked him, smiling. "AGAIN!? WHY DO YOU ALWAYS GREET HIM LIKE HE'S YOUR FRIEND!?" Keiko shouts as she whacks me on the head. "Owwie...." I said as I rubbed the back of my head. Keiko grabbed her whip. "Let's do this, we'll capture Weasel and bring him back to Konoha." Keiko announced as she cracked the whip. I put a hand in front of her. "No. We should greet our friend." I said, still smiling at him. "Don't tell me-!! You're in the Akatsuki!!" Keiko shouts, pointing at me. "What? No-" "I thought I could trust you Ciel.... You betrayed me.... betrayed all of Konoha!! Our family!!" Keiko shouts, tears pouring out of her eyes. She is getting the idea waaaaaay off. "Um... I'm pretty sure Weasel is just here to talk. Which, I'm going to grant him." I said, referring to Weasel who is awkwardly standing there. Keiko just stared at me. "... Are you going crazy?" Keiko deadpanned. "Tch, I am crazy. The definition of crazy." I said, laughing maniacally. Keiko rolled her eyes and put her whip away. "Well... Alright. I trust you, Ciel. More than anybody." Keiko said, but still glaring at Weasel. "Okay Weasel, continue." I said, nodding at him. "Keiko, It's been a while. But Ciel, I need you to promise me something." Weasel said, charcoal eyes burning into my body. I jumped down from the tree and walked up to him. "What for?" I asked him. Keiko flinches when I got close to him. "Ciel! Not so close!" Keiko hisses at me, ready to take out her whip and use it. I roll my eyes at Keiko. "Keiko, he's not a enemy for now. If he were, he would have his sharingan on, no?" I asked her. She opened her mouth to say something but closed it. Then opened it, then closed. She looked like a fish when she did it. I turn back to Weasel. "Sorry about Keiko's behavior, Keiko doesn't really trust you Weasel." I said, jerking a thumb at her. "It's fine. But, I don't really care since I don't have that much time already. Ciel," Weasel said, gaining my attention. "Aye?" I asked him. "Don't... tell anyone the truth. Take it to your grave, do not reveal truth, not even Sasuke." Weasel said seriously. I remained stone faced. "I will Itachi, don't worry." I said, surprising him a bit. That was my first time calling him by his first name, so of course he would be surprised. I think I'm going to call him by his name now... since he might die. He was back into his regular composure. "Thank you.... Take care of Sasuke for me, will you? He's a naive child that's easily influenced... it'll get him killed." Itachi asked me. I sighed. "I suppose... Though, if I were to you might become a uncle." I said, laughing lightly. Keiko sweat drops. "Is it really that severe...?" Keiko asked me. "Yeah." I answered her. "What do you mean uncle?" Itachi asked me. "Ehehehe...... He keeps telling me that he'll make me his wife and revive the clan whether I like it or not...." I said, laughing nervously. Itachi looked down in deep thought. "Okay... Then treat my foolish little brother well." Itachi said, suggestively? The hell? "Umm.... No...? But your secret is safe with me... don't worry. But... you know Duckbutt will have to know someday." I said, crossing my arms. "What are you two talking about!?! Ciel, is there something you're not telling everyone!?" Keiko shouts. You're losing Keiko's trust quickly.... Ugh... at this point I might have to tell her. Everything. Wait, everything everything!? You only told her that you came from another world, but do you think she can take reality..? That... everyone including herself is just a make believe being? Okamia, you're a make believe being too as well as me, since my parents were born here so that means I'm make believe too. I know... but such a young girl like her? I... I don't think she could take it well. Well, what else we got to do? I'll tell her once I'm done talking to Itachi... since he doesn't know. Well, why can't you? He's going to die anyways. ..... Ciel? No. I'm not going to let him die. Ciel... you have to. You kinda ruined Shikamaru's growth of a character when you saved Asuma, and in the war, Choji won't get his super awesome mega super powers. Yeah.... I suppose so... "Itachi... is it okay if I told Keiko about... well you?" I asked him. Itachi looks down and deep thought then looks at Keiko, looking her up and down. "Fine." Itachi said. I grinned. "But, no one else." Itachi said. "Thanks pal, you made my explaining to Keiko a lot easier." I said, grinning. "Also... I have another request." Itachi asked me. "What is it? Spit it out so we can get on our way to find the real you and capture you." Keiko hisses at Itachi. "I want you watch me and Sasuke's fight until the end, in case of something goes wrong." Itachi said, putting a hand on my shoulder. "Okay... I can do that." I said, then turning to Keiko to motion her over. Keiko comes down from the branch cautiously and climbed to my shoulder, hissing at the hand that kept my other shoulder. "Okay." Itachi said making a hand sign. Keiko flinches when he did but I shook my head no to her. I blink and before I knew it, we were in a different area. "Go somewhere you aren't seen. Watch our fight, I don't want anything to go wrong." Itachi said. "Hold on, do you mean that you want us to make sure you kill Duckbutt!?" Keiko shouts at Itachi. "No, quite the opposite Keiko...." Itachi trails off. I look around and saw Uchiha signs everywhere. "This is...." I trail off. "Yes. The Uchiha hideout." Itachi answered. "Hey Weasel, where's Sushi?" Keiko asked Itachi. "He went to go greet Sasuke's team. I won't let him know you're here, though." Itachi said. "I see... well, we will go on our way. I'll.... I'll see you sometime Itachi." I said turning around, almost choking up. I start walking but Itachi stopped me. "Also... why are you calling me by my first name out of all times? You've always called me Weasel..." Itachi asked, curious. "Because.... No reason at all." I said, smiling back at him. I turn around to face him. I give him a close eyed grin. "Ya know.... I wish I could have gotten to know you ya know... Be friends, go on missions together, eat out together.... But I suppose that won't happen." I said, then putting out my hand. "Hey!" Keiko hisses in my ear. "But... since this will be the last time I will talk to you.... I want to be able to leave for the last time as friends, not foes. 'Kay?" I asked him, smiling. Itachi stared at my hand then took it. "Hn." Itachi grunts and I smile bigger. Keiko bites her lip. "Me too!" Keiko shouts as she puts her paw on our intertwined hands. I chuckle softly and we let go of our hands. "Well... See ya Itachi." I said, starting to leave, a tear or two slipping out of my eyes. "Yes... I will see you later."
