Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Star Ocean. Oh well, maybe one day.

A/N: You know I haven't been able to find a single Naruto Star Ocean crossover. Shame to 'cause Star Ocean Till the End of Time was such a great game. It's gotta be one of my favourite RPG games (Right after Final Fantasy.) Anyway I've had an idea for this in my head for a while now. So here it is, hope you enjoy it.

Naruto: Till the End of Time
Ch01 An Encounter With Fayt


In a large forest surrounding a small village a figure was lazily laying on a tree branch, absent-mindedly looking out over the village. The figure had wild spiky blond hair that reached down to his shoulders. He was wearing a black sleeveless muscle shirt with matching black shinobi styled pants. He had on closed toe shinobi boots with white shin-guards over the top of them along with a kunai holster strapped to his right leg. He also had what looked like black sleeves running up from his wrists to just above his elbows, over the sleeves he had white forearm protectors. He had black fingerless gloves on that had metal plates on the back with the leaf symbol etched into them, a similar symbol was tattooed in red on his left shoulder. Over his black shirt was white ANBU styled armour, a crimson red scarf was also wrapped around his neck which reached down his back. He also had a white fox like mask covering his face. The mask had three red marks running from just under the left eye down off the cheek, with another two running diagonally down it's forehead, the lower one stopping just above the same eye while the one just above it continued into a single curved swirl. Lastly, he had a katana with a silvery white handle and two small red tassels attached to the end of it in a jet black sheath with a golden tip at the end of it strapped to his back.

The figure let out a quite sigh before he heard footsteps coming towards the tree he was in. moving further into the tree he looked out over the branch to see two figures walking in the direction of the nearby village. They were wearing earthy brown coloured clothing, that didn't seam any better then rags in his opinion, but what really stood out were their ears. Their ears were pointed and a lot longer then most other people he had ever seen and they seamed to flop down at the sides of their heads. He could easily hear what they were saying, but he had no clue as to what they were actually saying "#? #?!#" As the two continued to walk past the tree the blond haired figure was in he thought to himself 'How am I supposed to find out about this place and the people in it if I can't understand a single damn word that they're saying?' He then let out another sigh 'This is the most pointless mission I've ever been on, and that includes chasing around that stupid cat Torra... Well maybe not that pointless but still pointless none the less, and I don't care if this is an S-ranked mission.' He then lay back down with his hands behind his head, looking up at the clouded sky above him, letting out another sigh before whispering out "Why the hell did I even agree to this mission in the first place?"

-- Flashback--

The blond haired figure stood in front of a large wooden desk with a pale blond haired woman sitting behind it. She was wearing a white top with a green overcoat over the top of it. She was leaning on the desk looking down at the paper work all over it while attempting to rub the stress out of her head. After a minute of this the blond haired figure cleared his throat trying to draw the woman's attention "Hey Baa-chan, you gonna tell me what you called me here for or what?"

The blond haired woman just looked up at him with an annoyed look as a vain seamed to bulge on her forehead "Gaki, what did I tell you about calling me that?" The blond haired figure just shrugged his shoulders in a care free way causing the woman's right eye to start violently twitching before she started shuffling through the papers for the ones she was looking for.

While she was shuffling through the papers the door behind the blond haired figure opened and in walked two figures. The first was a raven haired man that oddly enough resembled a ducks ass. He had onyx coloured eyes and was wearing a pair of white cargo pants with a kunai holster strapped to his right leg and blue shinobi sandals. He also had a blue shirt with a high collar and a green Jonin vest over it with the red and white fan symbol of the Uchiha clan on the back of it. He also had a Konoha Hitai-ate tied around his forehead.

The second figure had long pink hair with her Hitai-ate on a red cloth keeping it tied up in place of a ribbon. She had sea green eyes and was wearing a sleeveless red top with a Jonin vest over it. She also had a tight pair of black shorts that reached mid thigh with a white mini skirt over it with spits running up the side. She had on black ninja boots and a kunai holster strapped to her right leg. She also had black gloves on and a large white elbow pad on her left arm.

The two of them then walked past the blond haired figure standing in the middle of the room before approaching the desk that the blond haired woman was sitting behind. The raven haired man just stood there while the pink haired woman bowed slightly "Tsunade-shishou!" The blond haired woman now known as Tsunade looked up at the two figures in front of her before the pink haired woman held out a brown folder and smiled down at her "Our mission was a complete success."

Tsunade grudgingly took the extended folder while grumbling to herself "Great just what I need, more paperwork." Hearing this the pink haired woman let out a giggle before laughing nervously at the annoyed glare Tsunade shot her "Is that all?" The pink haired woman just nodded her head while the raven haired man let out a "Hn" Tsunade then let out frustrated sigh before looking back up at them with a frown "Well, what are you waiting for? Leave."

The pink haired woman just bowed her head with a quick "Hai Tsunade-shishou!" She along with the raven haired man just turned around and started to walk away until the pink haired woman finally took notice of the blond haired figure in the centre of the room. Her eyes widen slightly as realisation hit her "Naruto?" She then tilted her head to the side before saying "How long have you been there? You know you shouldn't just barge in when other people are in a meeting with Tsunade-shishou." She finished with her arms crossed over her chest and a slight pout on her face.

The blond now known as Naruto just stared at her with his right eye twitching 'She's kidding, right?' After that thought Naruto just rolled his eyes before narrowing them at her, though they couldn't see this because of his mask, before saying "I've been here since you entered, Sakura. You walked right past me."

The pink haired woman, Sakura just let a "Huh" before walking past him while saying "Well whatever."

Naruto just shook his head at this, wondering how she could be so clueless, that is until the raven haired man walked up to his side before casting him a half interested glance before giving a slight nod of his head "Dobe."

Hearing this Naruto just gave him his usual greeting "Teme."

However upon saying this he was met by a fist to the back of the head by an irate Sakura. Turning around he shot her a glare even though they couldn't see it before she yelled out at him "Naruto No Baka, don't you dare call Sasuke-kun that." After that was said she turned around and started fuming out the door "Hn, let's go Sasuke-kun!"

The raven haired man, Sasuke just let out another "Hn" before walking out the door while calling back "Don't forget the reunion next week, dobe."

Naruto just continued to glare at the door as it closed behind them, it had been like this even since he had brought Sasuke back five years ago. Sakura would fawn over her precious 'Sasuke-kun' while constantly degrading Naruto, while Sasuke just continued to ignore and insult him. It was just like it was back when they were twelve. Well at least Kakashi would still acknowledge him, well until... their final mission together as a team two years ago. It was after that mission that Naruto had finally had enough of his team and finally accepted the offer, and joined the ANBU special forces. However after his team experiences he preferred to take up solo missions.

Naruto's thoughts then travelled towards the rest of the Konoha twelve and their little reunion next week, Oh how he wished he had some excuse to get out of that. Here he was at age twenty one, he'd proven himself among the best Konoha had, he had mastered not one but both of his father's own Jutsu, even taking one to a level the man himself had never been able to achieve. And yet this seamed to mean nothing to the rest of the Konoha 12, even now they still continue to look down at him as the dead-last, dobe of the academy, something that still pissed him off greatly. It was then that he was brought out of his thoughts by Tsunade clearing her throat. Naruto turned his attention back towards her, only to see the annoyed she gave him. Seeing this he rubbed the back of his head while saying a quick "Gomen."

Tsunade just shook her head before motioning for Naruto to take a seat. After taking a seat Tsunade handed him the file she had been searching for earlier. As he flipped though the pages in the file Tsunade started to speak "A few months ago a recently unknown land was discovered a few hundred miles out to sea from the west cost of the Elemental countries."

Naruto's head shot up at this "A newly discovered land?"

Tsunade just looked up at him with a slight twitch in her right eyebrow at being at being interrupted "Yes, however we currently have no idea of what is over there or even if it's populated." Tsunade then lets out a sigh before continuing "The council wants me to send someone out there to explore the area and determine any possible threats that could possibly spell trouble for us."

Hearing this a small grin appeared on Naruto's face under his mask 'Thank you Kami, I think I just found my excuse.' He then said with some excitement in his voice "When do I leave?"

A small smile appeared on Tsunade's face "I thought you'd say that. This will be registered as an S ranked mission. There will be a ship departing from the land of waves in four days to take you there. However they wont be able to dock as we have no idea what is there, so you will have to walk the last mile, or swim if you prefer. Oh, a man named Tazuna has agreed to meet you at the entrance of the village."

Naruto looked back up at this "Tazuna? I haven't seen him years, wonder how he and his family are doing." He then noticed that Tsunade's eye started twitching again at being interrupted, seeing this Naruto slumped down in his chair slightly "Uh, gomen baa-chan."

Tsunade's eye just started twitching a little more violently at this before she let out a sigh and shook her head slightly before shooting an annoyed glare at Naruto "As I was saying, this mission will last the duration of a month. After this time another ship along with another team will be sent to retrieve you." Tsunade then waved her hand passively "Now go and prepare for your mission, you'll be leaving for wave in the morning." Naruto nodded his head before standing back up and was about to walk away before Tsunade called out to him "Naruto!" Hearing this Naruto turned back around and gave her a "Hm?" before she continued "We have no idea what is out there, be careful okay."

Naruto just let out a chuckle "Aren't I always?" Upon seeing Tsunade narrow her eyes at him he waved his hands in the air "Okay, okay, I promise I'll be careful." Tsunade just gave him a small smile at this before Naruto turned back around and started heading back towards the door. Just as Naruto reached out for the door he heard Tsunade mumble something about never ending paperwork. Hearing this Naruto let out a chuckle before saying "You know baa-chan when oji-san was still in that chair I don't think I ever saw him doing any paperwork and yet he always had it done."

Tsunade just looked up at Naruto and narrowed her eyes at him "What are you getting at Naruto? Are you saying that I don't live up to Sarutobi-sensei?"

Naruto just said "Nah" before letting out another chuckle "No one could live up to oji-san. But one thing though, after I finally became a Genin I asked him how he always managed to complete the paperwork. The answer he gave me confused me for a great time, but I eventually figured it out."

Tsunade just raised an eyebrow at him "And what was his answer."

Naruto laughed for a second before saying "He said I already new his secret."

Tsunade's head hit her desk hearing this before she lifted it back up and looked back at the back of Naruto "What kind of answer is that?"

Naruto just shook his head at this "A very cryptic one, but not impossible to figure out." He then let out a sigh before looking up at the ceiling "You know I learned the Kage Bunshin No Jutsu right before I became a Genin." Naruto then opened the door before walking through "Well bye baa-chan, see ya in a month." With that said Naruto closed the door behind him and waited for what he knew was coming.

Tsunade just stared at the door with a raised eyebrow "Kage Bunshin? What is that gaki getting at this...DAMN!" Her eye widened as realisation hit her, along with the palm of her hand. Outside the office Naruto just started laughing his head off as he walked down the corridor.

-- End Flashback --

Naruto just lay back down on the branch with his hands resting behind his head while letting out a sigh "Oh yeah, that's why." He then looked up at the clouded sky and let out another sigh as he remembered the trip to get here. It had taken a grand total of two days to get here, two days on a compact tiny little boat. He could still remember the smug look on Tazuna's face when Naruto first set eyes on the possible death vessel he called a 'ship'. It was originally only supposed to take a day to get here but of cause they had it hit a large storm. As he remembered this Naruto let out another sigh 'Man, Kami must have a real grudge against me.'

Naruto turned his head in the direction of the small village just east of his current location. He had arrived here a week ago, after a mile long run to get from the 'death vessel' to shore along the constantly shifting tides. It had taken Naruto three days on foot to reach this small village, he could of made it here in one but he wanted to take his time and explore around a bit first, plus he had no idea where he was going. Once he entered the village he came to one problem right of the bat in the fact that he had no fucking clue as to what they were saying or even what language they were speaking. One thing was for certain though, even if he couldn't understand them he could certainly understand the gestures they were giving him to get out of the village.

The next four days he had spent here had been spent observing the villagers and he had come to a decision that this was defiantly a backwater island. 'They obviously aren't very welcoming of strangers, or maybe it's just masked strangers. Yeah come to think of it maybe it would have been a better idea to remove my mask before entering the village.' Naruto let out a tiered sigh at this until another thought occurred to him 'But still I wonder what led to their mistrust of outsiders. Maybe there's more here then I originally thought.' After this thought occurred to him Naruto shot straight up into a sitting position as he heard a quiet whizzing noise coming from somewhere. Hearing this Naruto pumped chakra into his ears to increase his sense of hearing.

With his now increased sense of hearing Naruto could now pinpoint the direction that the sound was coming from, which turned out to be from the sky. Determining this Naruto thought to himself 'What the hell? Now what's going on?' With this thought in mind Naruto started to pump chakra into his eyes as well in order to determine just what was making the noise. However Naruto's eyes widened slightly as the sound seamed to be getting louder. After a minute Naruto noticed a metal pod like object come into view "Okay..." Naruto continued to watch the falling object as in increased in size coming closer and closer to the round, until it finally landed a ways away form the village deeper in the surrounding forest. Naruto cast a quick glance to the village before his eyebrow started twitching slightly just seeing them go about their day as if nothing had happened 'How did they not notice that?' He then looked out in the direction the pod had fallen in before letting out a sigh "Well better go check it out." With that said Naruto started jumping from tree to tree in the direction of the fallen metal pod.

After spending a while racing through the trees Naruto came to a stop, crouching down on a branch, as he looked down to see the metal pod. It was larger then Naruto had first thought and had landed near the edge of a cliff, but what caught his attention was the blue short haired boy standing next to it. He looked to be a year or two younger then Naruto, and looked to stand at five foot nine, putting him just an inch under Naruto himself. He had dark green eyes and was wearing a sleeveless white top, that looked like someone had drawn a crude picture of a smiley face that had been signed 'Peppita'. He also had on brown shorts that ended just above his knees and blown saddles. In front of him was a broadsword, stabbed into the ground, with a golden hand guard.

The blue haired boy seamed to be lost in his own thoughts, and as such didn't seam to notice a small grey blob like creature, a Young Slime, sneaking up behind him. Once the Young Slime was in range it 'jumped' into the air preparing to strike the blue haired boy. Hearing this he turned around with a shocked expression on his face, with no time to draw his sword and deflect the attack, however a single shuriken came whizzing through the air before slicing through the Young Slime, killing it instantly. Seeing this the blue haired boy pulled his sword out of the ground before scanning the area "Who's there? Show yourself!"

Hearing this Naruto dropped down from the branch he was no before letting out a small chuckle "Well that was a close one, huh? You need to pay more attention to your surroundings, you never know what could be out there." Looking up at the blue haired boy, Naruto sees that he's holding his sword in a defensive stance. Seeing this Naruto just passively waves his right hand in the air "Hey, hey, relax. It's not like I'm gonna attack you or something." Naruto then lets out a small chuckle before continuing "Would of made the whole saving you from that blob thing kind of pointless."

The blue haired boy just tightened his grip on his sword and narrowed his eyes at Naruto "Who are you?!"

Naruto folded his arms over his chest while tilting his head to the side "Isn't it genuinely considered good manners to give your own name before asking someone else for theirs?"

The blue haired boy just continued to stair Naruto down "Isn't it considered polite to show your face to the person your talking to?"

Naruto placed his right hand on his chin while saying out loud to himself "Maybe it was the mask." Hearing this the blue haired boy just raised an eyebrow at him before Naruto just shrugged his shoulders 'Meh, not like anyone around here even knows me anyway.' Naruto then reached up with his right hand and slowly removed his mask from his face, revealing his Konoha Hitai-ate on a black fabric rapped around his forehead, bright sky blue eyes and three whisker marks on both cheeks. He then clipped his mask onto the left side of his waist before rubbing the back of his head and grinning sheepishly "Haha, sorry about that. Anyway, name's Naruto Uzumaki also known as Konoha's Raikou Senkou. (Lightning Flash) You?"

(A/N Just to let you know, the whole Raikou Senkou name will be explained later on in the story.)

The blue haired boy seamed to relax at this before replying "My name's Fayt. Fayt Leingod."

Naruto just nodded his head at this before looking at the metal pod behind Fayt "So judging by the metal pod thing I'm guessing your not from around here."

Fayt had a nervous look on his face before saying "Uh, um... Yeah. You could say that." Fayt then looked back over at Naruto "Uh, Naruto right?" seeing Naruto nod Fayt continued "You wouldn't happen to know which way it is to the nearest village, would you?"

Naruto nodded his head again "Yeah, it's not to far away from here. Though they don't seam to be very accepting of outsiders..." Naruto let out a nervous chuckle at this point "Although that might just be outsiders with masks on. In retrospect it might have been a good idea to have removed it before entering the village." Naruto finished by rubbing the back of his head.

Fayt just chuckled at this while nodding his head "Yeah, that could help." He then let out a sigh before continuing "Anyway I think I'll take my chances. You think you could show me the way there?"

Naruto shrugged before replying "Sure thing, I mean it's not like I have anything better to do anyway." Fayt just nodded at this before the two took off through the forest at a leisurely pace. As they continued to walk Naruto turned his attention towards Fayt "So..." Hearing this Fayt turned his attention towards Naruto before he continued "What's up with that metal pod thing anyway?"

Naruto noticed that Fayt seamed to have a nervous look on his face before he rubbed the back of his head for a second "Uh, um, well... I'll tell you about it later, for now we should probably get to the village." Hearing this Naruto just looks at Fayt out of the corner of his eyes, which seamed to make Fayt sweat, before he just shrugged his shoulders accepting this for now.

As they continued through the forest a Young Slime jumped out of a bush in front of them. Seeing this Naruto just lets out a sigh "Another one of those things. What are these things anyway, I mean their all over this forest." As he says this another fifteen jump out in front of them "Okay... That's new, haven't seen them gather in mass like this before."

Fayt then turned around only to find that there was another large group of Young Slimes behind them as well. Seeing this Fayt turned towards Naruto "We're surrounded!"

Naruto just let out a sigh "Well this could be a problem." Fayt just gave him a look that clearly said 'Do you think'. Naruto then turned his attention towards Fayt "You think you can handle one of the groups, while I handle the other one?"

Fayt nodded his head while holding up his broadsword in a defensive stance facing towards the group of Young Slimes behind them "I can give it a try."

Naruto nods his head while facing his own group of Young Slimes before unsheathing his katana. There was a small sapphire in embedded near the base of the blade, while the blade itself was diamond tipped, glistening in the limited light. "All right, on my mark." Fayt gave a quick nod at this before Naruto called out "And, brake!" With that said Naruto and Fayt jumped away from each other charging towards their own group of Young slimes.

As Naruto charged forwards five of the Young Slime 'jumped' into the air towards him. Seeing this Naruto knocked the first two away with his katana before slicing through the other three. Naruto continued by jumping into the air and twisting his body over the group of Young Slime while pulling out two shuriken and throw them at the two he had just knocked away, slicing through them. Naruto landed in a crouch with his back turned to the group before spinning around on his heel with his katana held out, slicing through another Young Slime that tried to attack him from behind "Six down, ten to go." Naruto cast a quick glance at Fayt to see him stab his sword into a mid-air Young Slime before spinning around, slicing through another one from behind 'Better not use my Jutsu yet, at least not until I'm sure that I can trust this Fayt guy.'

While Naruto was looking over at Fayt three of the Young Slime jumped towards him, however Naruto caught sight of this and black flipped from his crouching position while swinging his katana out, slicing through all three. Naruto continued the swing of his blade along the ground picking up a cloud of dust, keeping him out of sight from the Young Slime. Four shuriken then came flying out of the dust cloud before slicing though another four Young Slime. Naruto jumped out of the dust cloud and into the air with his blade pointed down before landing with his blade skewered through another one and slightly into the ground. Naruto then cast a quick glance to his left to see another Young slime moving towards him before he throw a kunai, hitting it between the eyes. Naruto stood back up and pulled his katana out of the ground with narrowed eyes 'That was only fifteen, where's the last one?'

Naruto then heard something coming from behind him and spun around to see the last Young Slime flying out of his dust cloud. Seeing this Naruto's eyes widened 'Damn, it used my own cover on me. I didn't think these things were that intelligent.' Before the Young Slime could reach Naruto however he brought his katana up and stabbed right through it. Naruto let out a sigh at this and turned his attention towards Fayt just in time to see him tackled in the gut by a Young Slime causing him to skid back along the ground slightly. Fayt held his gut with his left hand while narrowing his eyes at the Young Slime. He then held out his sword as it was engulfed in a white aura before he swung it through the Young Slime with a cry of "Blade of Fury!" A white glow seamed to be left behind the path of the sword. Fayt then brought his sword back up, slicing through another one before thrusting it forwards, through another one. The white glow then extended just beyond the the blade and cut through the last of the Young Slime.

Naruto's eyes widened slightly seeing this 'Wow, nice technique. The white aura around the blade seams to be able to extend it's range as well as being used as a short range blast.' However Naruto then caught sight of one final Young Slime that had been hidden under a nearby bush 'Crap!' "Fayt, to your left!" Hearing this Fayt turned his attention to his left only to see the Young Slime slam into the side of his left knee, knocking him back slightly right before a shuriken flew straight through through the Young Slime. Naruto rushed over to Fayt while he re-sheathed his katana. "Hey Fayt, you okay?"

Fayt just turned his attention towards Naruto before nodding his head "Yeah, I'm okay. Come on we still need to reach the village." Fayt then started to walk off before his leg buckled from underneath him.

Before he could hit the ground though Naruto appeared by his side and held him up before pulling Fayt's left arm over his shoulder. Naruto then turned his head towards Fayt "You sure about that."

Fayt just let out a sigh "Not so much, I guess." Naruto just let out a chuckle at this before the two of them continued to make their way though the forest.

After a few more minutes of walking Naruto decided to speak up "You know, your pretty good with that sword of yours, but I'm guessing you haven't actually had much battle experience."

Fayt just nodded his head while letting out a chuckle "Thanks, yeah I haven't had much battle experience out in the field. Mainly just games and stuff." Naruto nodded his head before Fayt spoke up again "What about you?"

Naruto just raised an eyebrow at this "What about me?"

Fayt turned his own head towards Naruto and raised his eyebrow at him "I caught glimpses of your fight. You showed skill, you've obviously been trained for this sort of thing."

Naruto rubbed the back of his head and let out a nervous chuckle before saying "It comes with the job."

Fayt just gave him a confused look "What job?"

Naruto let out a sigh at this "Back home I work as a shinobi. There's always someone stirring up trouble, so you tend to get a lot of experience out on the field." Naruto finished with a faraway look in his eyes.

Fayt blinked a few times at this "Shinobi, as in a ninja?" Naruto just nods at this before Fayt continues "So, your not from around here then."

Naruto shook his head "No, my home's on the other side of the ocean. If your wondering what I'm doing here then, well... people back home recently found out about there being land out here. So I was sent on a mission to explore the area and find any possible threats to the people back home." Naruto just rolled his eyes at this point before continuing "I've been here about a week now, you know the conclusion I came to about this place is?"

Fayt just shook his head "No, what?"

Naruto just shook his head before looking up at towards the sky "That this is one backwater rock."

Fayt let out a chuckle at this "So you came here alone?" Naruto nods his head at this before Fayt continues "Don't you miss the people back there, you know your friends and family."

Naruto just shook his head at this "Maybe Tsunade baa-chan, but aside from that well... the chance to get away from it all for awhile was my main reason for taking this mission in the first place." Seeing Fayt's confused look Naruto continued "The people back home are more comrades then actual friends. Back during my days at the ninja academy I was pretty much the bottom of the class, the dead last..."

Fayt cut Naruto off at this point by saying "They have a school for ninja."

Naruto just raised an eyebrow at this "Uh, yeah. How else would you gain the basic skills needed. I mean if someone was sent on a mission without even the basic knowledge of how to be a ninja, how long do you think they'd last without being killed."

Fayt just nodded his head at this "I guess that makes sense."

Naruto lets out a sigh "Anyway, as I was saying. I was the dead last of the academy. That was nine years ago, since then I've proven myself as one of the best back home." He then let out a tiered sigh before continuing "But even now everyone continues to look down on me as that same dead last, dobe I was back then. And as far as family goes, well... they died the day I was born." Naruto finishes off with a slightly quieter voice.

Fayt just looked down at the ground hearing this "Oh... I'm sorry."

Naruto just shook his head "Don't be, you didn't know. Besides it's not like ever knew them in the first place." Naruto then turned his head towards Fayt "What about you? Any friends and family waiting for you?"

Fayt just seamed to stair off into space for a moment with a faraway look on his face before he whispers out to himself "Sophia."

Naruto turns his attention towards Fayt at this "Huh, what was that?"

Fayt seamed to snap out of his trance at hearing this "Huh, Uh what...? Oh never mind, it's nothing."

Naruto just looked at Fayt out of the corner of his eyes "Riigghht. Well no matter." Naruto then turned his attention back towards the path in front of them "Come on, we've still got a ways to go until we reach the village yet." Fayt just let out a groan at this.

About an hour later Naruto and Fayt came into a clearing 'Finally! Man dragging around an injured Fayt through the forest, I thought in was gonna take forever.' Naruto then let out a sigh "We made it... finally!"

Hearing this Fayt lifted his head up "That's... great! Whew, that was a lot farther then I thought. I thought it'd be... closer."

Naruto turned his head towards Fayt "Hey, you okay?"

Fayt just nodded his head "Yeah... I'm just..."

However that's as far a Fayt could get before he passed out. Seeing this Naruto called out "Hey wait, Fayt no! Stay awake... Ah crap." Naruto finished off as Fayt with his arm still around Naruto's shoulder collapsed to the ground, pulling Naruto down with him. Naruto then muttered something face down in the ground before turning his head towards Fayt with narrowed eyes "You know, your a lot heavier then you look."

Just then a little girl with brown blown bobbed hair walked into the area before running up to Naruto and Fayt. She was wearing a dark green, almost brown dress with a top. She had long pointed ears that flopped down at the side of her head. Once she made it up to them she spoke up "Hey! What's wrong misters? You two got belly aches?"

Hearing this Naruto's eyes widened slightly 'What the hell? I understood what she was saying. Could they speak my language all along? Na, they couldn't of, could they? Ah who cares, I'll figure it out later.' Just then Naruto's stomach started growling 'Damn, did she have to say that, I haven't eaten anything to day.' Naruto just moved his head up to look at the bobbed haired girl and gave her one of his foxy grins "Well I do, but I think he..." He moved his shoulder to indicate Fayt "just passed out from exhaustion."

The girl with bobbed hair just nodded her head before saying "Okay. Wait here. I'll get Niklas." She then ran off calling out "Niklas! Niklaaas!!"

Naruto just let out a sigh "Uh, okay. I'll just wait here then." Naruto then watched as the bobbed hair girl ran into the village to find this Niklas person. While he watched this a thought crossed his mind 'Well at least they're not chasing us off this time.' He then quietly said to himself "Maybe it was the mask."


There we go the first chapter of my new fic, 'Naruto: Till the End of Time' is up and ready to go.

AN/ Okay for the random opponents that usually pop up throughout the game, I'll probably just give a description of them the first time they appear along with the creatures name. After that I'll probable just call them by their names, unless they haven't been seen for like a few chapters then I'll probably give you another shorter description along with the name again.

As for pairings I already have one in mind for Naruto but it's not guaranteed so I will be open to suggestions, just no yaoi, I don't care how much you might want it I'm not writing it. But he will most likely be paired with someone from the Star Ocean world.

And like I said earlier, as far as I know this is the only Naruto Star Ocean crossover out there. So tell me what you think of it, you know if it's good, bad or even completely crap. Just remember flames hurt, no seriously don't put your hand in one, hurts like hell.

Next time "Ch02 I am Norton The Great" till then see ya, and don't forget to review.
