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

Chapter 88

*First person pov*

"Aaaah! We're finally back home!" I said as I collapse in front of the gates of Konoha. "C'mon. Get up." Keiko said as she tugs my hair as she stood in front of my body. "We have to report to Tsunade." Neji said as he stood above me. "Noooooo..... You'll have to drag me there...." I said as turned my head to look a Neji. Keiko sighs. "I'll carry her...." Keiko said as she made a move to grab me but Neji stopped her. "I have this Keiko, I'll carry her." Neji said and I raised an eyebrow. I felt myself being picked up. Neji was carrying me bridal style. "You know, I'm up for a piggy back ride..." I mumbled as I looked at Neji. Neji sighed and put me on his back. Keiko climbed up onto my head and fell asleep. Neji started walking through town, everyone was staring at us. We probably looked gay as fuck, haha! We arrived in front of the Hokage building. Neji climbed all the stairs for us, since we were still on his back. We arrived in front of Tsunade's office. "Get off Ciel." Neji said as he lowered me down. "Do I have to?" I whined. "You have too. I refuse to face Tsunade with you on my back." Neji said as I get off his back. "Man..." I said as I open the door. "YOU'RE LATE- Oh wait, Ciel, Neji." Tsunade addresses. Ero-sennin was there too, I wonder why. *Gasp* Don't tell me he's here to make me edit his next porno!? "So, the mission?" Tsunade asked us. Neji gave the full report on the mission to Tsunade, since I was too lazy to explain it myself. "I see... the mission is a failure." Tsunade said as she rubs her head. "Are you mad?" I asked her. "No. I'm glad, I never knew this village was doing this sort of stuff to it's children.... so these dragons aren't a enemy in any shape or form?" Tsunade asked me. "Nope! They are friends, you don't have to worry about them coming here and destroying the village, no! Well, only if you harm their family then it'll be war." I said, smiling. "Okay.... I'll send anbu to search that village. You're dismissed, but Keiko and Ciel stays here." Tsunade said and Neji went out the door, sparing a glance at me. "Do you need something Tsunade?" I asked her. "Yeah, but we'll wait for Naruto and Sakura to arrive." Ero-sennin answered for me. I was silent for a moment. "I already know. Orochimaru is dead, yes." I said to them. Huh, I just realized that was the first time I used Orochimaru's name. I think I'm just going to stick to Pedophile... it suits him. "Huh? How did you know?" Tsunade asked me. "Word travels." I lied, I knew because it's right around the time Orochimaru died. "That many people know then...." Ero-sennin trails off. Keiko stirs in her sleep. "Whadda ya'll talking 'bout... ya'll are noisy..." Keiko mumbles. "Let's wait until Naruto and Pinky get here." I said as I patted her head. She grumbles and we waited. A few minutes later, Pinky and Naruto walked through the door. "Ciel! You're back!" Naruto shouts as he runs over to me and hugs me. "Woah! You're acting like I have been gone for years." I said as Naruto pulled away. "You guys are late!! What were you doing, taking your sweet time!?!" Tsunade shouts at them. "Take it easy, Tsunade." Ero-sennin said, trying to defuse her anger. "O....Our apologies... Naruto was eating breakfast....or.... uh.... lunch..." Pinky stutters as she bows. "Oh? Ero-sennin too?" Naruto asked. "It's been awhile, Naruto! Ciel! Keiko!" Ero-sennin said. "Now, what did you want to talk about with us?" Keiko asked, rubbing her sleepy eyes. Tsunade, Ero-sennin, and me stay silent for a moment. "It concerns the information that has been circling in most places throughout the region.... It's about that." Tsunade explains. "Information?" Pinky asked Tsunade. "What? What is it?" Naruto asked as well. "Can you please enlighten us?" Keiko asked them. "Orochimaru is dead. It appears Uchiha Sasuke killed him." Tsunade announces. Shock was the word to describe the emotion on Keiko's, Naruto's, and Pinky's faces. "Is... Is that true!?!" Naruto shouts. "There's no mistaking it.... I heard it from a reliable source." Ero-sennin confirmed it. "Then..." Pinky said with tears in her eyes. Naruto smiled happily. "Hehehehe~~! There's no way he would be beaten by the likes of Orochimaru! So, Sasuke's coming back to Konoha! Right!?" Naruto shouts. Me and Keiko look down, sadden by Naruto's answer. I looked up at Naruto. "Naruto... I'm sorry, but Duckbutt's not coming back for a while...." I explained as me and Keiko looked down. "What the hell do you mean?! Why not!? How could he not come back now that Orochimaru's gone!?" Naruto yelled. "Naruto. Duckbutt is obsessed with revenge." Keiko explained. "He'll try to find the Akatsuki so he can kill his brother Itachi." Ero-sennin added. "That damn bastard again.... Shit!" Naruto curses and I bawl my fists. It's not Weasel's fault... you know nothing about him so stop judging him!!! Ciel, you know we can't say anything. I can't physically speak to them and if you told them, you'll ruin everything. Tch... I just don't want Weasel to die... "We need to form a platoon and move out right now! The mission is to hunt down the Akatsuki, right!?" Naruto shouted, turning to Tsunade. "Yeah... to get to Sasuke, we need to go after a Akatsuki member, the best chance of finding the information!" Tsunade announces. "In other words, we need to find... Uchiha Itachi."
