1,837The effects of experiencing a teleportation jutsu was hard to explain. One of the best ways a person could describe the experience was akin to that of 'blinking', in that you close your eyes in one place and after a second you open them to find that you are in another. You cannot even tell you have moved or changed locations for the first few moments, especially since you are surrounded by smoke.
This was the case for Hinata. One moment she was standing in the mining town, then Riku was on top of her and the two of them were surrounded by smoke. For an instant, she had not even realized that she had been teleported anywhere. However, as the smoke started to dissipate the truth dawned on her. She was not where she once was.
Acting out of natural instinct, she attempted to attack Riku, who she still saw as her adversary. However, right away he released her and flew up above, staying out of her range. While she glared at him and tried to figure out how to circumvent this, tethers were thrown at her from the side, which she had failed to notice until it was too late. The tethers tightened and weighed her down, forcing her to fall on her side.
"It's okay, I have no intention of harming you." Riku said as he landed gracefully and looked down at her.
"Oh thanks, you just intend to let your father have his way with me. That's so much better." Hinata sarcastically replied. "What are you going to do? Stand and watch in the corner?"
"Don't be crude." Riku countered. "You are not going to be harmed."
"Oh, and why is that? You hope they'll change their mind before they get the chance to rape me?"
"No, I'm hoping that your lover will be able to rescue you before they get that chance."
Hinata naturally looked as skeptical as humanly possible. "A likely story, but why would you even care?"
Riku looked around to make sure he was alone, then took out what looked like a spray bottle and hit her with a few blasts. She gagged, the odor was like a mixture of garlic, onions, and cheap cologne. Though it seemed worse for Riku, his eyes started to water and his skin started to break out in hives before he backed away.
"This is incubus repellent, unnoticeable for a time but very effective." He said as he covered his mouth. "This will buy you time without my parents being any the wiser, but it will not work forever. Rest assured I gave your loved one a way to come rescue you. He should be here any time now and hopefully put an end to this once and for all."
"And you're doing this because...?" Hinata asked, still not believing him.
Riku suddenly looked uncomfortable, he lowered his head and turned from her. "I owe someone an apology; this is part of it. Don't eat any food unless one of my mates brings it to you. You'll recognize them by this mark."
He then pulled out a piece of paper showing a diamond pattern. More specifically, a bunch of black diamonds like you would see on playing cards arranged to form a diamond shape with white diamonds filling in the center.
"If someone has this mark on their chest, you can trust what they bring you. Otherwise, let whatever food or drink you are given nowhere near your lips."
With that, he pocketed the paper and left through a solid wooden door banded with iron. When he closed it there was audible sound of a lock clicking. And then at once the tethers that had kept her bound vanished, allowing her to move about. However, she found that her hands were now encased in padded mitts, which prevented her from using jutsus. She tried to pull them off with her teeth but they refused to budge.
Hinata sighed and blew a lock of hair out of her face. Then she got to her feet and studied her surroundings. She was clearly in a cell. It reminded her of an old-fashioned dungeon that one would see in black-and-white movies. It was made entirely out of grey wet-looking stones with rusty manacles attached. There was a bucket in the corner and a drain in the center of the room. The only source of light came from a half-moon cut window with thick iron bars. Standing on her tip toes she managed to look through it at an unfamiliar landscape.
"Oh crap." Rimona said as she looked through Hinata's eyes.
"Let me guess, this is your old home?"
"Yep, welcome to the the First Circle of the demon realm."
"What do you mean first circle?" Hinata inquired
"There are seven territories in this world, sort of like the nations in yours. Only, here, we call them circles, and each is ruled by a very powerful demon lord. My parents are the Lords of the First Circle, after they won a rebellion that ousted the previous Demon Lord."
"Why are they numbered like that though?"
"To be completely honest, I don't remember why or even what makes this the first circle. It has just always been like that."
"But there is there a way out of here, right?"
"A way to get back to the human world? Of course, how do you think I got there in the first place?" Rimona explained. "Getting back to the human world isn't the problem though. First, we have to get out of here."
"Where is here exactly?" Hinata asked as she looked around again at her cell.
"My father's fortress. It was from here that he launched his rebellion against the previous demon lord. After he won the rebellion, he made it the new seat of power for the First Circle. This is both good and bad."
"How so?"
"It is good because I know the area around this castle like the back of my hand. But it is bad because the security of this place is tighter than an oyster who took a vow of chastity. Not to mention that this place will be filled with my brothers and sisters. And I'm willing to bet that my parents will be showing up soon to gloat over your capture."
Hinata groaned and slumped against the wall. "So essentially, we're screwed."
"Well, at least thanks to Naruto's kyuubi chakra, I'm good on needing sex for at least two weeks if I absolutely had to be celibate, but that means using none of my abilities in that time. Masturbation might help stave that off though."
"I am not going to masturbate in your family's castle." Hinata said firmly, not wanting her captivity to turn into some kind of peepshow for the lust demons that inhabited this place.
"Yeah, I figured that would be the case. Also, they would have probably taken that as a sign of you weakening. So, we have two weeks max to figure out a way to get out of here."
"Naruto-kun will be sure to find a way to me before that." Hinata said with complete certainty.
"Uhh..."
"What?"
"Okay, while it's not impossible for a human to find their way here, he has no idea where to look. His best method for getting here is if a demon brings him here, and other than my family, what demon would have a reason to do that?"
"I have faith in Naruto-kun." Hinata insisted. "Besides, your brother said that he left a way for Naruto-kun to follow us."
"Even so, don't sit on your ass waiting for him. We need to do something ourselves in the meantime."
Before Hinata could reply, the door was heard unlocking so she shut her mouth. The door slowly opened and in walked Lilith, looking rather regal and sultry, like a queen wanting to seduce her subjects.
"Hello again, my dear." She said, her pouty lips curling up into a smile.
Hinata just glared at the Succubus Queen and sat against the cell wall.
"Oh, don't look at me like that, you'll get lines on your face otherwise" She chuckled and knelt down so that she was staring directly into Hinata's eyes. "Regardless of what you may think of me Hinata, I do think of you as a friend. After all, you did let me escape that prison. I gave you my power and the confidence to finally be with the one you lived. And I only asked you for one thing in return."
"And I said no. I'm allowed to do that." The Hyuuga heiress declared.
Lilith frowned a bit. "Was the idea of having sex with my husband really that repulsive to you? You know, I technically had sex with your man."
"Which you knew would be happening when we made our deal. At no point did you tell me you expected me to let your husband have sex with me."
"Honestly, I didn't think it would be a factor. I figured I'd be in you for a year, two at the most, then I'd be recovered enough to go home. I never actually thought that Aru might find me before that happened."
"Well you can have all the sex you want with him. Bringing me here isn't an act of friendship, it's just you being cruel."
Lilith stared at her nails as if that meant nothing to her. "You were cruel by denying me. I'm just returning the favor."
"By setting me up to be raped? Would you let one of your daughters go through what you-?"
Lilith responded by go up and slapping the white-eyed kunoichi, leaving scratch marks on her cheeks. "Don't you even imply that I would let a single one of my children suffer something they didn't deserve!"
"Oh, if only that was true."
Lilith raised an eyebrow. Hinata's voice had sounded just the tiniest bit different. The Hyuuga heiress turned to look at the succubus queen, smirking as if knowing a secret, and the eyes immediately caught Lilith's attention. They were not Hinata's eyes, they were eyes that she had not seen in a long time but would recognize anywhere.
"I... this is... I can't..."
"Wow, I actually made you speechless. And I didn't even have to stick anything in your mouth."
"R... Rimona?"
"Hello mother, it hasn't been long enough." Rimona-in-Hinata said, the scratches on her face already healing just like Naruto's injuries would.
"How is this possible?" Lilith asked.
"When you left, you created a vacancy. I stepped in, saving this girl's life. Funny how you claim she's a friend, but you knew full well that leaving her body would take a toll on her health. Last I checked, friends don't knowingly put their friends in critical danger."
Lilith's shock at this unexpected reappearance of her wayward daughter still did not diminish. "Why are you doing this to yourself? Get out of her!"
"Isn't it obvious?" Rimona-in-Hinata laughed. "I'm protecting this girl and hurting you at the same time. I knew you'd come back for her, if she survived you leaving her body of course, and I knew you'd try to get Dad to have his way with her."
"I wasn't going to let her be raped!" Lilith insisted.
Rimona-in-Hinata chuckled. "Oh no, you were just going to hold her hostage until she was so desperate to go back home that she'd consent to having sex with him if it meant she'd be released afterwards. Now Dad might be a horndog, but we both know he wouldn't try to have his way with his own daughter."
Rimona-in-Hinata then leaned forward. "Or maybe he would."
"Don't talk about your father that way!" Lilith demanded.
"That man and you killed my husband. You'll get no respect from me." Rimona-in-Hinata hissed, glaring at her mother.
"It was for your own good. You're killing yourself by thinking you can survive off only one lover for your entire life. It's just not the succubus way to be monogamous."
"So in your own words, to save me from malnutrition, you deprived me of my food source. Yeah, that makes sense."
Lilith then smirked. "The fact that you're still alive is proof I was right. You had to find sex somewhere else, otherwise you'd be dead Rimona."
"Oh, I found an alternative."
Lilith looked horrified.
"You look upset. Are you saying you would have preferred me dying?" Rimona-in-Hinata asked.
"You... do you know what you've done?!"
"Oh yes. I saved the life of a girl you misled. I'm preventing you from manipulating her into essentially agreeing to be a fuck toy for your husband. I've stayed off your radar for over a hundred years. I've basically proven that lust demons can live monogamously without dying. Oh, and I'm the one that taught Madara Uchiha how to seal you in that giant sapphire oh so long ago. Which one are you particularly mad at, Mom?"
For a moment Lilith looked like she wanted to gouge out her daughter's organs but she couldn't bring herself to do it. This was still her daughter after all, and would killing Hinata really do anything other than prove Rimona right? After taking a moment to take a deep breath, Lilith steeled her gaze and leaned down to look right into her child's own.
"You and this girl are going to remain her for a long time. Whatever substitute you use is no longer here, so you can't stay inside her forever. Eventually, her celibacy will drain you, and you will be weak enough that I can pull you out of her flesh whether you like it or not. When that happens, you are going to be reminded in no uncertain terms my child which one of us is the parent here. And as for what will happen to Hinata, I'll decide if anything changes for her when that day comes. Just remember, this is all your fault."
"Says the woman who killed my husband just because I didn't want an open marriage." Rimona-in-Hinata remarked. "I'm curious, what was your original plan for Hinata? The one where I wasn't a factor? Am I right and it was really nothing but you keeping her hostage until she consents to sex with Dad? Or did you actually do something unpredictable for once?"
Lilith shook her head and laughed. "Oh no, no one was going to touch a single hair on her head. Not even Aru. I am going to subject her to the same hell I was forced into, apparently by you. She will be kept trapped here in the demon realm, away from the person she loves."
Lilith saw Hinata's eyes return to her normal white and have a bit of fear in them, making her grin. "Oh yes, can you imagine it Hinata? The idea of never seeing your beloved Naruto or your family ever again? It is a horrible feeling and it was one I had to endure for over a hundred years."
"Naruto-kun will find me!" Hinata said adamantly and Lilith only laughed louder.
"I said the same thing to myself over and over again when I was trapped in that crystal. That Aru would one day find me. In fact I can imagine your blonde lover is already driving himself insane trying to find a way to rescue you and all the while thinking of the horrible things that must be happening to you."
Hinata could imagine it too, the idea of Naruto desperately looking for some method to locate her. She could clearly see in her mind the agonizing look on his face, wondering if she was alright. It was already breaking her heart and Lilith could see that. The succubus smirked and leaned forward.
"I should tell you, the demon realm is infinite. Unless you know where you are going it is virtually impossible to navigate here. But if by some miracle that Naruto does manage to find his way to the First Circle, and I do hope he does, truly I do, we have a little surprise waiting for him."
"If you touch him, I will kill you!" Hinata proclaimed vehemently.
Lilith snickered. "With what?" She then noticed the weapons pouch on the girl's thigh, and then lunged to remove it. Hinata saw this and rolled away, tricking Lilith into crashing into a wall. She got to her feet swiftly and rushed to the door, which had not been locked behind Lilith.
She opened it despite the mitts and it was only thanks to years of training that she avoided plummeting over a ledge. She grabbed the edge of the door and held on for dear life, looking down. This cell she was in was atop a tall pillar-like tower, with no noticeable climbable way down. She was trapped in a Rapunzel style prison.
Her gloved hands though were losing their grip and Hinata was starting to slip. She almost fell until Lilith's hand shot out and grabbed her by the scruff of her clothes and pulled her back inside.
She watched Hinata fall onto her butt and then tut-tutted, like a mother scolding a naughty child.
"You didn't really think it would be that easy did you?" She said with a sneer. "Like I said my dear, you are going to be here for the rest of your life."
Hinata just glared at her, which just amused the succubus queen.
"You have no one else to blame. This could have been avoided if you hadn't been such a prude. But hey, if you go ahead and consent to letting my husband have his way with you just once, then maybe I'll forgive all this and let you go."
Lilith turned and stepped away two times before looking back over her shoulder.
"Maybe. Or maybe not."
With a sinister chuckle, Lilith sprouted wings and walked out of the cell, falling for a moment before taking flight towards a castle Hinata could see not too far away from the tower. Hinata watched her go, wondering how she couldn't have realized just how cruel and vindictive this woman had been.
After a few moment's silence, Rimona finally spoke. "Okay, this is going to be a little tricky. We can use my wings to get down, but that would just use up my energy faster and you cannot use your jutsu with those things on your hands."
"Not necessarily, I don't need hand signs for all my techniques." Hinata said, looking out the door. Either out of thoughtlessness or overconfidence, Lilith forgot to close it let alone lock it. Probably thinking that the fear of falling would keep her from trying anything. "She might have spent time in my body, but clearly Lilith didn't learn about me as much as she thinks she did."
Before Rimona could ask for clarification, Hinata began to walk down the tower. Like any shinobi who had long ago mastered the ability to walk up walls. It simply required her to continuously channel chakra into her feet.
"Gotta say, I'm impressed girl." Rimona said as she watched everything through Hinata's eyes. "Maybe we demons do underestimate you humans too much."
"Believe it." Hinata said, borrowing her fiancee's signature catchphrase.
Finally they got to the base of the tower and ceasing the flow of chakra to her feet, dropped to the terrain. Hinata looked left and then right. There were no traps or guards waiting for her, obviously they had not dealt with shinobi before otherwise they would not have overlooked this ability. Though, Hinata supposed she should be grateful for that.
"Okay, now how do we get out of here?"
"Give me a minute, it has been a while. I've got to get my bearings." Rimona said, normally she was used to seeing everything from above while flying. "Wait, something's not right."
"What?" Hinata asked, looking around. She thought about activating her byakugan, but she didn't want to be distracted right now.
"Remember what I said, security here is supposed to be super-tight. And yet you just walked out of that tower into free space. No traps, no guards, nothing. Even if my parents didn't think you actually could get out of there, they'd still have a contingency in place."
"So there must be a trap." Hinata said, now activating her byakugan. She looked around, but she immediately noticed something was wrong. Her vision via the doujutsu was... she wasn't sure what the right word was. Blurred? Distorted? It was like she was looking through fogged glass, the kind that wasn't meant to be looked through. She could still see, but not to the quality she was used to.
"I can't see. Not like how I'm supposed to. Is this part of the trap?"
"Might be. I can't be sure. Can you see anything specific?"
Focusing on looking around, Hinata saw the landscape around her. The open field, the nearby forest, the tower she just left, a small brooke going through the forest, all a normally peaceful environment. She saw none of the telltale signs of traps or dangers that she had been taught to see, and with her vision unfocused she was not reassured.
"No, I don't. Maybe they really did overlook this?"
"I doubt that, but we need to get out of here. Since we can't fly for now, the best option is just running into the woods. Keep alert girl."
Agreeing, Hinata bolted away from the tower towards the nearest forested area, hoping to hide among the bone-white trees with blood red leaves. She saw and heard nothing, not even birds in the trees or insects flying around. That didn't make her feel better, and after a bit she deactivated her doujutsu.
'I know that's a risk, but right now it's like I can see better without the byakugan than with it.'
Meanwhile, from the top of the tower, Lilith watched Hinata run off into the woods via a telescope She had originally flown to the castle but then she had swooped back around and landed on the roof without making a single sound.
She smirked, her eyes were practically glowing with excitement. She had of course been expecting this to happen, in fact she had planned on it. With those specially made succubus-bondage mittens on her hands, Hinata could not use her regular jutsu, especially her juuken. The only way she would be able to get them off was if she got another lust demon to remove them for her. Or used Rimona's chakra to break free, which would only weaken her daughter and thus make it easier to extract her later.
"Run run run as fast as you can little kunoichi. You're in my world now and there is nowhere for you to go." Lilith said with a giggle. "I'll let you have a head start, but soon I'll introduce you to my other children."
"Why have you come back to me?" A booming voice said from behind some flames.
On the other side of the flames in more visible space was Riku, kneeling down in respect. "Lord of Wrath, I have gotten our plan started. I have given your orb to a mortal who will be of great help to our cause. I strongly suspect that any moment now he will summon you. Then we can begin to make things right."
There was a pause and the flames diminished, and a silhouette appeared. One small and humanoid but lacking any features. But there was a glint of light reflecting off teeth to show this demon was smiling.
"Who is this mortal?"
"His name is Naruto Uzumaki. The currents lords of lust have abducted his loved one with nefarious intents. He will do anything to retrieve her unharmed and well my lord. As I would with any of my mates."
"Is he angry?" The Lord of Wrath asked.
"Indeed, he is. And powered by a demon of his own it appears."
"Anger and love working together, yes, he will make a fine candidate for my design. If he summons me, I will agree to hear him out, but he will have to pass a test first. I need to see for myself that he will be more than just righteous indignation."
"Of course, my lord." Rikue agreed.
"If this goes well my young friend, I will grant you your desire as well as his. But should this Naruto fail, you will share his fate. Now, go and prepare, and be ready when I call for you."
"Yes, my lord. Thank you." Riku said before rising to his feet, with the silhouette disappearing and the flames along with them. He turned and flew away, back towards the First Circle.
'Naruto Uzumaki, my life is literally in your hands. For now though, it's time to welcome Kanna to her new home.'
