Ninja Tail
Guess what! Today I'm going to be making a Fairy Tail and Naruto crossover fic...intrigued? Well, alright then...let's see how this fanfic turns out...
I hope you find it to be hilarious...though admittedly this fanfic isn't going to be entirely for laughs, I can tell you that...
Chronologically...this takes place during the beginning of Naruto Shippuden...and prior to the Phantom Lord Arc...in other words, Naruto and his friends are about sixteen years old or so while everyone in Fairy Tail is the same age as they've always been...since you know, they never seem to age.
Chapter 1: The Interdimensional Portal
The guild members of Fairy Tail were all very excited. Today was going to be the day that they were going to test out an experimental interdimensional portal...or one of them was anyway. According to Makarov, it led all the way to an alternate world.
Sure enough, Natsu, Gray, Erza, Lucy, and Happy were standing on a couch waiting for the portal to be ready. Of course, it wasn't going to be an easy task. They were all pretty excited.
"I'm rather impressed that Levy was able to build something like this..." noted Lucy.
"She sure is smart, isn't she? She must have an IQ of 300...then again, that's just my estimate." asked Erza.
"I'll say! She curb-stomped me in that Fairy Tail trivia challenge...I still owe Natsu twenty jewels..." noted Gray.
"I have to wonder what's on the other side...is it going to take us into outer space? Is it going to take us into Candyland? Is it going to take us into the wonderful world of Disney?" asked Natsu curiously.
"Your guess is as good as mine." answered the ice mage.
"I just hope that nobody gets hurt using that portal..." questioned Lucy.
"I suppose there could be...accidents..." spoke Erza.
Upon the mentioning of the word "accidents", Happy began to hug Natsu tightly.
"Please don't make me use that portal! I don't wanna die!" exclaimed Happy.
"Relax Happy...nobody's forcing you...though admittedly if we want to get this project on the road we're going to need a test subject..." noted Lucy.
"Are you volunteering, Lucy?" asked Natsu.
"I suppose if nobody else wants to use the portal, I'll give it a shot." explained the blonde.
"Be careful out there!" exclaimed Gray.
Lucy nodded.
Sure enough, Levy announced that the portal was ready.
"Finally! I was getting tired of waiting!" exclaimed Natsu.
"Let's go check it out!" bellowed Happy.
"Wait for me!" replied Gray.
Sure enough, Makarov was presenting the portal to the guildmates. They were all very excited for the occurrence.
"Greetings, my dear guildmates. Today is the day we're going to test out our experimental interdimensional portal...to be honest, it was actually a bit of an accident that this portal was created..." explained Makarov.
"It was?" asked Elfman curiously.
"Let's just say that Levy likes experimenting with magic..." stated the guildmaster.
"Yeah...heh heh..." nodded Levy.
"Any volunteers?" asked Makarov.
Lucy raised her hand. She was looking forward to this.
"Very well. Do us a favor and test the portal out for us, will you?" asked the elderly mage.
Lucy nodded, and went to the interdimensional portal to investigate the strange parallel universe.
Sure enough, she ended up being transferred across dimensions. She had to admit, it was an out-of-world experience.
"I feel dizzy..." noted the blonde. Was using the portal safe?
As it turned out, the interdimensional portal lead to a forest.
"Interesting..." noted Lucy.
Curious, Lucy Heartfilia decided to investigate her surroundings a bit further.
Inevitably, her guildmates would want her to hurry back, so she decided not to stay in the mysterious world for too long.
Unbeknownst to Lucy however, this world happened to be inhabited.
As it turns out, a certain blond-haired ninja by the name of Naruto Uzumaki was taking a stroll in the forest.
Oddly enough, he couldn't help but shake the feeling that something big was going to happen to him today...but he wasn't sure why. Were the Akatsuki going to try to abduct him again? He didn't look forward to being a human sacrifice...
Curious, Naruto looked around him...and discovered that there was a strange portal that had appeared out of nowhere.
"What the-" exclaimed the teenage boy.
Curious, Naruto decided to investigate the mysterious portal to see what was on the other side.
"Interesting..." noted the genin.
Shrugging, he decided it would be best to alert the Fifth Hokage so that she could investigate the matter. For all he knew this could be a threat to national security.
However, at that very moment, Naruto tripped...and he ended up going straight through the portal.
"Whoa!" exclaimed Naruto.
Unfortunately for Lucy, the interdimensional portal only had enough power for one trip and back...and it began to close, much to her surprise.
"No no no no no no!" bellowed Lucy.
The portal immediately disappeared, and the unfortunate girl began to scrape the ground with her bare hands, hoping to salvage what was left of the portal.
But unfortunately, it appeared that she was now stranded in this mysterious world. Digging her way to China wasn't going to bring her back.
Lucy sighed. Makarov did warn her that the portal was experimental.
The only thing that she could do now was to try to investigate her surroundings to see if she could find somebody that could help her...then again, she didn't know anybody other than her guildmates that could conjure a magical portal.
Also, she got the feeling that somebody else had tried using the portal...were they also stranded as well?
"I sure hope that they're doing OK..." noted Lucy.
Meanwhile...
As it turned out, the interdimensional portal was responding once again, much to Makarov's delight.
"Yes! The experiment was a success! Watch now as Lucy Heartfilia returns to tell us about this alternate world!" exclaimed Makarov.
"This is going to be good!" bellowed Happy.
"I would imagine so." nodded Natsu.
However, at that very moment, somebody contrary to who they were expecting came out of the portal.
"Oof!" exclaimed Naruto as he fell on the floor.
Immediately, the Fairy Tail guild members gasped in shock. Where was Lucy Heartfilia? And just who was this mysterious fellow who had entered the portal in her stead?
"Where am I?" asked Naruto.
For a moment, Naruto wondered if he had died and gone to heaven. Standing a few feet away from him were several attractive-looking females. Heck, he was even starting to feel attracted to some of the male members of the mysterious group.
There was even an elderly man that reminded him of the Third Hokage...was he somehow related?
However, his thoughts were interrupted when Makarov spoke to him.
"You're not Lucy Heartfilia!" exclaimed Makarov.
"What?!" bellowed Naruto.
"Who are you?! And what have you done to Lucy?!" exclaimed Natsu.
"Yeah! Are you a kidnapper?" asked Happy curiously.
Unsurprisingly, Fairy Tail were all very surprised at the occurrence. They were clearly expecting a girl, not a boy, to say the very least.
Naruto raised an eyebrow. Just who were these people?
Shrugging, he decided that it was best to tell them his name so that he could get some answers.
"My name? It's Naruto...Uzumaki." explained the ninja.
"Naruto Uzumaki?" asked Makarov curiously.
Naruto nodded. That was his name, alright.
"Pleased to meet you." spoke the old man.
Unfortunately for Naruto, at that very moment, the interdimensional portal began to close, much to everyone's astonishment.
"Noooo!" screamed the genin as the portal disappeared.
Frantically, he began to scrape the ground with his hands...much like a certain mage had done so before him.
Unfortunately for Naruto, it appeared that not only had he wandered into an alternate world to his own...he was stuck there.
Naruto sighed. Hopefully he would be able to find a way back home...however long that took. His friends were going to miss him.
Levy was rather upset, to say the very least.
"To think we used up so much magic just to get that interdimensional portal running..." noted Levy.
"Is there any way for you to get it running again?" asked Naruto.
"Not for a while..." explained the leader of Shadow Gear.
Naruto sighed.
"What am I going to do?" asked the teenage boy.
Makarov began to think.
"I suppose we could make you an honourary member of Fairy Tail...until we manage to get this sorted out." explained the old man.
"Really? You mean it?!" exclaimed Naruto.
Levy raised an eyebrow.
"Are you sure about this? We don't really know anything about his powers and abilities..." explained the researcher.
"I suppose we could have somebody duel him to see how powerful he is...any volunteers?" asked the old man.
Erza raised her hand.
"Very well...Erza, take Naruto to our battling arena for me, will you?" asked Makarov.
Erza nodded.
Naruto's cheeks turned red. He had to admit...Erza was rather attractive.
As Naruto and Erza left, Natsu had to wonder where Lucy was. Was she doing OK?
Meanwhile...
Looking around, Lucy noticed that there was a ninja sleeping with his back pressed across a tree...he sure seemed to be a sleepyhead, considering that it was in the middle of the day.
Curious, Lucy decided to wake him up.
"Excuse me...could you give me a hand?" asked the summoner, shaking the sleeping ninja gently.
"Wha-what?" asked the ninja as he woke up.
"Could you tell me where I am?" asked Lucy.
"Hmm? Um, sure...what is your name?" inquired the ninja curiously.
"My name is Lucy...what's yours?" questioned the mage.
"My name? It's Shikamaru..." answered the teenage boy.
"Pleased to meet you...again, could you tell me where I am?" inquired Lucy. She had no idea where she was.
"We're in a forest right outside Konoha, I believe..." explained Shikamaru.
Curious, Lucy looked around, and noticed that there was an enormous city up ahead.
"Yeah...how could I have missed that?" questioned the teenage girl. It was a good thing that she wasn't far away from civilization...otherwise she might be in trouble. The wilderness could be dangerous.
"I suppose it happens to the best of us. Now if you excuse me I'm going to go back to my nap..." nodded Shikamaru.
"Can you take me to your leader?" asked Lucy.
Shikamaru sighed. It looked like he wasn't going to be able to go back to Slumberland for a while.
"Fine..." nodded the ninja.
Immediately, Shikamaru began to escort Lucy to Konoha. Thankfully, none of the ANBU eyed her with suspicion.
As it turned out, the Fifth Hokage was in her office...taking a snooze.
Feeling a sense of deja vu, Shikamaru decided to gently wake Tsunade up. Lucy began to wonder how many sleepyheads there were in Konoha.
"Excuse me...Lady Tsunade, we need your assistance." explained the jonin.
"Wha-what?" asked Lady Tsunade curiously.
Curious, Lady Tsunade looked around, and noticed that Shikamaru had a pretty girl with him.
"Is she your girlfriend?" asked Lady Tsunade curiously.
Shikamaru sweatdropped.
"Er, no, I only met her today...she claims to be from some sort of alternate world...though admittedly that claim is dubious." explained the ninja.
"Are you some kind of wizard?" asked Tsunade curiously.
Lucy Heartfilia nodded, causing Shikamaru to sweatdrop.
Immediately, Lucy went to pull out her zodiac keys...only to find that they had mysteriously disappeared.
"What the-my keys! What happened to my keys?!" exclaimed Lucy.
Shikamaru sweatdropped once again.
"Well, at least I have my whip..." noted Lucy as she pulled out her whip.
Shikamaru's face turned pale.
"You're not going to use that to-"
"What? Of course not!" exclaimed the teenage girl.
Shikamaru let out a sigh of relief.
Tsunade raised an eyebrow.
"About where you're from...do you happen to be a fighter? You mentioned something about being a wizard...though personally I'm perplexed that someone like that would actually exist..." asked the Fifth Hokage curiously.
Lucy nodded.
"I happen to be part of a guild called Fairy Tail...I'm the newest recruit in fact." explained the mage.
"Interesting..." noted the Fifth Hokage. Was she really part of a parallel world? Or did she hit herself on the head?
Either way, it looked like she would be useful to Konoha...if they could get her trained, that is.
"Would you mind if we tested our your abilities?" asked Tsunade.
"Sure...but I don't have my keys...I can't really do much without them..." noted Lucy.
"Then show us what you have." explained the Fifth Hokage.
Shrugging, Lucy agreed to let Tsunade test our her combat potential.
"I wonder what happened to my keys..." thought the mage.
Oh dear...it looks Lucy and Naruto are both stranded in each other's universes...but what happened to Lucy Heartfilia's keys? It looks like something strange happened when Naruto used that interdimensional portal after Lucy did...
In the next chapter...Lucy and Naruto's battle prowess is going to get tested...and they're going to go on missions. Hooray!
