Maybe I have been reading Mischief Fragment over on addventure to much lately, but I became obsessed with trying to figure out a how, when, and why these two series could clash without using an all powerful deity to make it happen. I learned the hard way how much flack you get for using that trope with any seriousness in my first story.

Anyway maybe the ideas I have come up with will make for a better start.

Disclaimer: I don't have any ownership of Naruto or Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. I am just doing this for my own entertainment and hopefully the reader's.

Uminari City, Nakaoka town

Japan, non-administered world "Earth"

Home of Hayate Yagami

9:48 P.M.

A young woman with dark pink hair sits rigidly on the couch with her eyes closed and her arms crossed over her chest. "We have few options left. With Hayate in the hospital and the TSAB agents visiting her with the other school girls, it is only a matter of time until they happen to discover her connection to us." Slowly she opens her blue eyes and looks directly at each of her three companions before continuing. "We must complete the Book of Darkness before that can happen."

"H..how can we manage it Signum?" the blond woman sitting with her hands in her lap on the couch to the right asks hesitantly.

"It isn't as if we have been sitting around ya know." Gripes the small red haired girl sitting on the floor as she crosses her own arms over the skull print black shirt she is wearing.

"Shamal..." Signum starts as she turns to the blond. "You mentioned sensing a ripple of energy from a creature that could possibly complete all the pages of the book in one go shortly after activation, and several times since."

"yes..." She replies quietly. "I traced it out of curiosity. It is in a world that I don't believe has even been made contact with before. There were times it disappeared making me think it was sealed somehow, but since the end of summer there is almost a constant trace."

"So if we could obtain just the fraction of it's power we need to complete the book that we need before the seal weakened?" Signum leaves the thought hanging in the air, the silence finally broken by the large blue furred wolf sitting on the floor as well.

"It is hardly in our power to move back in time..." His deep voice almost overrun by the red head. "How would you expect us to accomplish that?"

"Zafira, Vita.." The apparent leader says with a small smile. "Since there has been no known contact with this world then what has happened there is not set here. It is not beyond the book's powers to insert a dimensional barrier into the world before the seal weakened and pull the target into it."

Shamal whispers, "But the power expense..."

"Just as your strange rescuer mentioned several weeks ago, lost pages can be refilled." Signum states evenly. "Currently we are out of time here, I judge the risk worth taking."

River Canyon in the Land of Fire

Unregistered Non-administered world of the Rikudo Senin

5:43 P.M.

"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" The blond haired boy dressed in bright orange yells, as he slams his hand to the ground. 'Its gotta be a frog this time' he prays in his mind as the smoke erupts. When it clears to reveal a yet to mature frog he throws his hands to his head in frustration.

Hearing laughter from the white haired man peaking through the bushes at the the edge of the riverbank he stabs his hand out towards the man's back. "Could you be a little supportive here dattebayo!" the teenager yells before suddenly becoming woozy and falling to the ground.

The man turns to look at the boy and shakes his head before walking over. Picking the boy up piggy back style across his shoulders and back, the man smiles sadly at the boy's slack face, setting off for the far end of the canyon.

Nearby but within a barrier of disjoint time Shamal smiles. "The boy is our target, the creature is sealed within him somehow." Having traded her earth urban dress for green and white cleric robes she turns to her companions.

"The old man is powerful, this could be difficult." Vita says with a grin. She had traded her black goth clothing for a full Gothic Lolita red dress complete with a wide domed hat with stuffed plush dead bunny heads sewn on the sides as decoration.

"Pan the image past the trees Shamal." Signum states, wearing a knight's outfit in shades of purple and lavender consisting of a tight top framed by an open jacket with a pair of crossed belts holding it close to her sides at the waist. With a half tabard of v shaped cloth sections hanging from the belt almost making a full skirt while showing flashes of leg bare to her ankle boots. Seeing what the man had been chortling at she smiles grimly. "I believe I have a plan of attack, odious though it might be."

Zaffira snorts in derision and bares his fangs as Shamal moves the image back to where the man had just unceremoniously dropped the boy on the ground beside a fringe of trees screening a rift looking like a scar in the earth opening up with the river plunging into it.

"What could they be do..." the blond woman's voice catches as the man gives the child a hard poke to the chest that launches him backwards through the tress and into the ravine. "...ing?"

"Suddenly I don't feel so bad about doing this." Vita quietly snarls while tightening her hands around the long handle of the almost staff like hammer she carries.

"Shamal extend the barrier. Zafira see what you can do for the boy." the young swords-woman states while shrugging out of her coat. "Vita you are with me."

Jiraya was so involved in watching for the result of Naruto's training that he never even noticed the rippling in the air as the sky changed colors, or the blue blur overhead, his eyes were filled with the outpouring of energy from the boy's hand and the almost grandfatherly swelling of pride in his chest when his faith in Naruto was proven well founded as the boss toad appeared.

Chuckling in equal parts resignation, and admiration, he turns to move away from the rift before Gamabunta could notice him. Only to be brought up short by a stern woman's voice. "I would know your name sir." Before him stands a vision that would have fit beautifully in one of his Icha Icha books. A warrior girl, who could have done a centerfold spread proud, dressed in a tight sleeveless purple shirt, black hot pants, gauntlets, and ankle boots. Even the sword she was pointing towards him could not stop the giggle of perverted glee from escaping his lips.

"You dirty old man!" Was all he heard before it felt like a punch from Tsunade landed squarely in between his shoulders. Flying past the girl as she sidestepped he impacted with a tree and knew no more.

"This complicates things." Zafira, now in the form of a powerfully built man with light brown skin and blue furred wolf ears sticking out to the side of his short cropped white hair, muttered as he looked down at the boy climbing around on the head of, and conversing with, a five story tall toad holding itself up against the slick sides of the ravine. 'Shamal are you positive our target is the boy?' he telepathically asked the sensor type of their group.

'Yes...' She replied in the same manor, 'The toad is quite strong, but the energy beast is still sealed within the child.'

Fortune favored him when the toad wrapped its tongue around the boy and leaped out of the ravine only to impact with the upper dome of the barrier and loose the grip on the child. While the toad fell back towards the ravine, Zafira swooped in and caught the semi-conscious boy. He flew back to his teammates actually grinning at the mountainous voice shouting oaths from back inside the fissure.

"It appears the boy's guardian's intentions may not have been as callous as we first thought." The man intoned as he saw Signum setting clothing back to rights, and Shamal completed absorbing the mentioned guardian's magical potential into the book of darkness, stopping just short of killing him.

"Be that as it may," Their leader stated as she set her belt and tabard back into place. "He replaced forty out of the hundred pages we invested in this and we still need to complete the mission."

Naruto saw a blue and white blur as he was set on the ground. Then he was overwhelmed by a sensation like his lungs were being crushed, and all the air was being pulled out of them. Then he felt the seal begin to unravel and the world became a torrent of agony and fire.
