I do not own Soul Eater or Naruto.
I should note that this story takes place in an alternate universe…
Point in Timelines: Medusa has just "died", escaping in the form of a snake, and Naruto has just returned from the Wave mission.
Original concept inspired by GFLI's Dear Maka, and LoveRomance34's Friends Reunited.

There was an unusual quiet calm over DWMA.
Unusual in the sense that DWMA is never quiet, nor calm.
Weapons and Meisters passed each other in the hall without a word.
"You hear me world! Black*Star never gives up!"
Except Black Star. Black Star doesn't give a sh*t.
Everyone was either tense and had their guard up, or was afraid at what would happen next.
Kinda' hard to stay focused when there's a Kishin on the loose.
And the madness wavelengths were spreading.
Across the world, outbreaks of Kishin Eggs began to increase dramatically.

Death stood silently in front of his mirror, watching intently.
"Hm…"
"What is it Lord Death?" questioned Spirit.
"Tell me Spirit," he said without turning, "What do you know of the Bermuda Triangle?"

"Hokage-sama, are you certain that we should have the Chunin Exams now? Especially with these monster outbreaks?" questioned a man in dark sunglasses and a black bandanna.
"Yes Ebisu-san. The Exams are always held this time of year, and it's not going to stop now," said the aged man in the white and red robes.
A man with ridiculously spiky silver hair appeared in a swirl of smoke and leaves.
"Yo."
"Ah, Kakashi, right on time."
"Really? I'm almost certain that I'm 3 hours late," said the masked man.
"Well, I made sure to tell you that the meeting was 3 hours earlier than it actually is," said the Hokage, a smile on his face.
"You clever bastard," he muttered.
"What was that, Hatake?"
The man immediately straightened up, saluting the man.
"You are one clever bastard, SIR!" he shouted.
"That's more like it."
He turned his attention to the others there.
"Now, I'm certain you are all aware of the reason you are here."
"To nominate Genin for the Chunin Exams, sir," came the voices of all the Jonin in unison.

Naruto drummed his fingers on his table, waiting for something, anything to happen.
Seriously! He and his team waited 3 hours for their sensei, only for him to tell them they had the day off!
Why even call them to the bridge in person, when he could've delivered the message instead!?
Storing his thoughts for later, he leapt off the chair, deciding to eat before going out to train.
He grabbed a miso cup ramen from his cabinet, and put some water on the stove.
And he was just about to sit down again, when the familiar clunk of his mail being put through the door came.
It was a newspaper that fell to the ground.
"Here! Not that you could read it ANYWAY, YOU DAMN DEMON!" came the voice of the mailman.
"Good to see you too, Hiroshi," he muttered under his breath.
Picking up the newspaper, and unrolling it, revealed the cover image of another one of those monsters being gutted.
And in doing so, caused a small envelope to fall out.
The top was a dark red, the bottom pure black, separated by a jagged symmetric line. The lower right had a white cartoonish skull design. It seemed to be glued, if the lack of tape was any indication.
'Heh. She always loved the taste of glue on these things.'
Carefully, he gently opened the envelope, being cautious not to tear it.
Inside was a neatly written letter addressed to him.
Dear Naruto,
I believe these monsters you described are the monsters we hunt here at Shibusen. They are demons known as Kishin Eggs, and eat human souls.
The original Kishin, has recently awoken. I can only assume that this is the cause of the recent outbreaks.
By the way, how have you guys been getting rid of these things? And when they are killed, what do you do with the leftover Kishin egg? Usually, if the energy is not absorbed by a demon-weapon in time, the demon can, and will reform.
I recommend consulting Lord Death about this. You remember his number, right?
'How could I forget? 42-42-564, whenever you want to knock on Death's Door.'
Hope to see you soon. I really miss you.

It was 6:30 A.M. in Death City.
A young ash-blonde girl walked from the door, shut it, threw her coat on the rack, and jumped face-first into the couch.
The white-haired male in the kitchen looked up from his soggy bowl of cereal.
"Where'd you go so early?" he asked, boredom evident in his voice.
"Post office," she said, peeling herself of the leather cushion.
"Why so early?" he asked, scooping another spoonful.
"Wouldn't the better question relate as to why you are up so early?" she asked, turning herself over.
"Meh, Blair woke me up," he said, shrugging.
He finished the rest and downed the milk in three gulps.
"So what's so important that you had to send it at 6:30 in the morning?"
Silence followed.
Sighing, she stood up, and walked across the floor to her room.
"A letter to a friend."
She closed the door behind her.

He breathed on the small bathroom mirror, causing it to fog up.
Quickly, he wrote in the number.
Shi-ni, Shi-ni, Go-Roku-Shi.
The mirror rippled, before his image started to distort, before being replaced by a mass of black spikes with a cartoonish white "skull" mask.
He bowed to the image before him.
"Shinigami-sama."
"Hello, Hello Naruto-kun! How's it going?"
"Not well. I'm sure you're aware of the monster outbreaks?"
The God's face/mask turned serious.
"Yes, I'm well aware. Don't worry, the solution is already underway."
The mirror rippled again, signifying the end of the call.

"…Stein?"
"Yes?" said the scientist, his head looking up from his work.
"Convene the Death Scythes."
'Crap, Crap, CRAP! Does this mean I'm getting a staff reassignment?' thought the red haired man behind him, 'NononONONO! I've made some progress with Maka already! I can't afford to leave now!'
"…Something wrong, Spirit?" asked the Doctor, directing his statement to the man huddled up, crying in the corner.
"No, not at all," he said, straightening himself.
'MAAAAAKAAAAAA!'

The blonde walked out of the bathroom, and stared out the open window.
"I have a feeling…. that things are going to take a turn for the better."
He turned and walked out of the room.
'Yeah. Better real soon."

AN: Hot darn, its been a while.
This idea has been in my head for quite some time. It was just a matter of actually writing it.
Mystic Naruto Chapter 3, and The Tail of Naruto Uzumaki chapter 4 should be out soon.
'Till Then!
