FLASHBACK NO JUTSU
LINE
"I can't afford to miss!"
Naruto was in his Nine Tails Cloak, and rushing at the fake Madara. He moved as swiftly as the wind that surrounded his wind release rasengan. However, no matter how great his speed, his attacks were bound to miss the man named Tobi. Tobi's technique made him almost impossible to touch, but now...Kakashi had found a way. This had to work.
Kakashi looked up at Naruto, and his left eye morphed into the 3 curved pinwheel, "Kamui"
The moment that Kakashi ignited his technique, Naruto's rasengan dispersed into the depths of the night's and Tobi collided, but no collusion occurred. Naruto simply phased through Tobi. Then out of the blue Tobi's shoulder's exploded in a small dome of chakra. Naruto smirked, and turned around.
Naruto shouted at Madara, "Try dodging me now!"
Naruto's chakra arm exploded, and pierced Tobi right through his heart. Tobi's mask hid any emotions that may have been displaced on his face, but his body language revealed more than any face could. Tobi then shouted with all his might, "NARUTO!"
With his mighty yell, Tobi grabbed onto Naruto's arm and tried to use his kamui to pull him into his dimension. Naruto attempted to pull his arm out of Tobi's chest, but Tobi latched on with an iron grip. Naruto could feel himself being pulled in, but at the last second he managed to tie himself down to the ground. For a moment Naruto was able to resist the power of Tobi's kamui, and avoid being dragged into his dimension. However, he knew he couldn't withstand it for much longer.
"Naruto! Quickly pump chakra into his system, and disrupt his jutsu!", advised Kurama as he was quick to realize the error of Naruto's attack, and the fatal consequences it may bring.
Naruto's eyes widen at crazy idea, and he shouted mentally at Kurama, "Are you crazy! We would just be giving him chakra!"
"That may be true, but it could potentially disrupt his jutsu with the excess chakra. If you are pulled into his dimension….game over.. Not only would we be in his playground, but we would be stuck there forever. Imagine, how exactly would you get out? That Kakashi-brat may have found a connection between his eyes, and this fake madara. But-"
"I get it! Just stop rambling , you're giving me a headache!"
"JUST DO IT!"
Naruto sighed, and ignored him. He quickly went to do the task that the Nine Tails had told them. Naruto started out slow, releasing a small amount of chakra through where he had pierced Tobi in the chest. However, after a second Naruto felt a giant pull on his chakra. Naruto felt his chakra gush out of his body like a fast moving river. Naruto cringed, when a bright light begun to erupt from Tobi's kamui. The darkness that surrounded the dark night was dispelled by the light emitted from Tobi.
Kakashi's eye widen at the scene playing out in front of him, and he shouted his student's name, "Naruto!"
Naruto felt a heavy pressure in his chest, and he could feel himself getting sucked into Kamui. His eyes were threatening to close, and he felt a heavy sleep fall over him , "What's going on?"
Naruto managed to open his eyes for one last second, and the last thing he saw was himself being pulled into Kamui.
LINE - EARTHLAND
Naruto could feel himself slowly waking up. His eyes fluttered opened only for them to close again. Naruto closed his eyes as he tried to reason with the pain all over his body. His bones felt bruised and heavy, and his skin felt like someone had lit his whole body ablaze. Naruto opened both his eyes, and was quick to see the night sky. Naruto stared at the sky, and then something dawned on him. His left eye…..Naruto quickly covered his right eye, and was shocked to not see out of his left eye. What the hell had happened?
Naruto lifted his head off the ground, and took a long at the location he now resided in. His eyes shook as he stared at the destruction that he gazed at. He was located in the middle of a crater about the size of several houses stacked on top of each other. Naruto was so deep inside of the crater he couldn't look out of it. All he could see were burnt up trees gazing down at Naruto from the top of the crater.
Naruto took a deep breath, and let himself calm down. Where was he? What happened to Kakashi? Guy? Bee? Where was….tobi?
The sudden thought shot panic through Naruto's body, and he frantically looked around the crater for any sign of his foe. His body couldn't keep up with the sudden movements that Naruto demanded, and Naruto collapsed onto his stomach. Then to his horror he stared at what looked like a mummified body. However, Naruto knew exactly who it was once he saw the broken mask next to it. Tobi?
Tobi's body had been completely been rid of it's clothes, and it's body had been shrunk down to it's bone. Naruto felt a wave of disgust run through him, as he stared at the corpse in front of him. Naruto then looked at the face of Tobi, and was surprised that it wasn't in bad condition as the rest of the body. One half of his face was oddly distorted and looked very odd. Then to the utter surprise of Naruto his eyes looked completely unharmed. Naruto stared at the rinnegan and sharingan. For a moment he felt himself lose track of time.
"What the hell is going on?" muttered Naruto his voice being lost into the depths of the dark night. However, his question would not go unanswered.
" It seems our plan has backfired." heaved Kurama from the depths of Naruto's mind.
Kurama's voice shook Naruto a bit. The presence of the bijuu suddenly reminded Naruto of the position he was in. He slowly tried to stand his body up, and asked Kurama, "What happened…."
"Your chakra….and my chakra infused was too powerful…..we opened a portal that wasn't suppose to open…...The only reason you're alive is because I covered you in pure chakra. It seems that was only enough to save your life."
Naruto finally managed to get onto his feet. He tried to scan the area, but his limited vision was not being very helpful. Was this how Kakashi felt like when he lost his eye? He brushed off the sudden thought, and tried to concentrate.
"I've never heard Kurama this weaken before….even when I stole his chakra. What did he mean by open a portal that wasn't suppose to open?" observed Naruto in his head. Naruto looked back down at Tobi, and once again stared at the his rinnegan. This rinnegan….it was Nagato's. He could feel the same presence from the time he fought Pein. How the hell had tobi managed to get this? Konan was the one to have taken Nagato's body…..did Konan betray him? No…...she must have been killed. Naruto tightened his fist as he remembered the blue haired beauty. Damn…...why could he never do anything right?
Naruto kept staring at the rinnegan, and suddenly he came to a conclusion. He would destroy the rinnegan, and finally set Nagato's soul free. Naruto reached into the back of his pouch, and pulled out a kunai.
"Naruto….you need to take his sharingan. It's the only thing that could possibly take us back home!"
Naruto's eye widened, "What are you talking about? Why do I need to his sharingan to go back home?"
"Dammit! Just listen….we have been transported to a completely different world. We are no longer in the world that contains the elemental nations. It's like we traveled through dimensions."
Naruto's eyes shook in complete terror, and he fell down to his knees. "What?"
"...5 years"
Naruto's eye bulged out, and starting shouting, "5 years? What are you talking about Kurama? You're not making any sense!"
"I wasted a massive amount of chakra just to keep you alive brat. More chakra than even my current self has. I need 5 years to recover, and after 5 years I may have enough chakra to transport us back to Konoha. "
Naruto bent down to the ground, and placed his hands on his head. He tightened the grip on his head, and for a moment felt like crying. It was like he was placed in some nightmare. Taking a moment to calm himself, he called out to Kurama, "How exactly would we go back?"
"Isn't it obvious. We take that Uchiha's sharingan, and implant it into you. Then we use the Mangekyō to transport us back."
Naruto groaned, and looked at Fake Madara's body, "Fine we'll take the sharingan, but we're destroying the Rinnegan. If someone in this world got their hands on that…...we would just be bringing chaos and death."
Naruto's answer seemed to satisfy Kurama, and all he answered was a few simple words.
"Let me take over."
Without another word Kurama took over Naruto's body. Kurama now having taken over Naruto's body gave a small stretch, and admitted to himself that the body of a human was much more comfortable and easy to move in. Taking a deep sigh he looked down at the Uchiha, and almost let out a vicious growl. He stared at the sharingan, "To think I would be using this…..."
Without giving it a second thought he viciously ripped out the eye from Tobi's eye socket. He then did the same to Naruto's left eye, but he threw Naruto's blind eyeball to the side. He then inserted the eye into Naruto's eye socket, and let a large amount of chakra consume the eye. Kurama watched with his other eye as a green fog of chakra begun to arise from Naruto's eye. After a few seconds Kurama opened Naruto's left eye, and the sharingan was activated for the whole world to see. Kurama smirked as he released his control over Naruto's body.
"AGH!" screamed Naruto as he fell to a knee. Both his hands covered his left eye as all the pain from the procedure was released at finally stopped covering his eyes, and let his hands rest on the ground. His fingers dug into the dirt, and his jaw tightened. "Now what?"
Inside Naruto's mindscape Kurama gave a look of amusement from Naruto's slowly begun to close it eyes, and gave Naruto his last message, "I need sleep….if I sleep I might speed up the process. 3 years….I'm leaving you in a nightmare Naruto. Survive in this world for 3 years, and your reward will be the ability to return home….it's a shame I won't be able to help you, so don't die!"
Then everything went silent. Naruto couldn't believe it. That was it? Kurama seemed to know much more of what was going on, and just left him with the smallest details? Naruto called out to Kurama, , "Kurama? YOU CAN'T JUST LEAVE ME LIKE THAT!...You stupid ass fox! KURAMA!"
Naruto paused for a moment and let out a sigh of frustration. He closed his new sharingan eye, and he sighed, "Great…"
Naruto walked over to Tobi's corpse, and he crouched down towards it. He pulled out a slip of paper from his pocket, and he used it to cover the rinnegan. After accomplishing that, he begun to climb out of the crater. With the little chakra Naruto had left, he opted to climb it without chakra. After a while, Naruto finally made it to the top. He turned around to face Tobi's corpse. He stared at the man's dead body, and quickly formed a hand seal. The crater was quickly engulfed in a ball of flames, and Naruto watched as the body was turned to ashes. The rinnegan finally destroyed
"Now you can finally rest in peace….Nagato."
LINE - FIORE - X789 - 5 YEARS AFTER THE DISAPPEARANCE OF TENROU ISLAND
"Hehe...sorry Romeo. I guess your first big job wasn't what you imagined it would be." spoke a man with short spiky hair. The man doned a large brown coat that resembled a poncho.
A beautiful woman with long green hair also chose to add a comment, "I was also looking forward to this job too. It was the first one I would of taken up after coming back to Fairy Tail."
A young boy who was walking in front of the pair of adults didn't offer a single reply. The boy called Romeo, simply shrug his shoulders and continued to walk. It wasn't that big of a deal. Romeo was sure that he would be allowed to go on another job with Bisca and Alzack. However, he failed to shake the feeling of disappointment that lingered in his mind.
Bisca, the green haired woman, and Alzack, the poncho wearing man, pitied the young boy. Before the time of their marriage they had witnessed the young cheerful boy that was Romeo. Nevertheless, that all changed on that fateful day. The day everything went to hell. The day which the king of dragons made his presence known. The day that Fairy Tail's downfall had begun. That day was December 16, x874, and the day that all of Fairy Tail's core members were wiped out.
Bisca glanced over to her husband, and they both shared a short look. Bisca took a deep sigh, and tried to banish the similar thoughts they we're both having. However, there was something else that was bothering her.
"I wonder who took down all those bandits? I mean when we got there, the job was pretty much done." commented Bisca out of the blue.
Alzack shrug his shoulders, "It can't be helped. At least we didn't have to do any work this time."
Romeo who had been half heartedly listening to their conversation was suddenly distracted by a sound nearby. His neck twisted quickly to the left where he stared down a few dark trees. He quickly came to a halt, and squinted his eyes to take a better look. He'd walked through Magnolia's forest a million times, but everything always looked different in the dark. Maybe he was just imagining things.
Bisca and Alzack had also stopped, and were standing behind Romeo.
"Is something wrong, Romeo?" asked Alzack as he started to look into the direction that Romeo was facing. Romeo shook his head.
"I thought I heard somethin-"
Romeo's sentence was cut short, when suddenly all three jumped out of the way. In what could have been only sheer luck, the gorian's fist slammed straight into the ground a second too late. The fist slammed into the ground destroying the very earth underneath it.
Alzack and Bisca jumped off the trial, and accidently managed to fall down into some ditch. Romeo had simply jumped back, and was left to face the gorian all by himself. Romeo stared at the monstrosity in front of him. The thing was an oversized ape twenty times Romeo's size. Romeo had fought wizards before, but this was the first time he would have to duke it out with some monster. For a moment Romeo felt himself get sick, and couldn't believe the situation he was in.
The gorian looked down at Romeo, and examined the boy for a moment. The gorian watched as Romeo took a step back, and ignited some purple flame into his hand. The gorian smirked at the cute trick, and brought up his fists.
Bisca and Alzack who were slightly downhill from the gorian and Romeo looked up to see the disastrous situation.
Romeo readied himself for an attack, but in the end he didn't even see anything coming. In an instant the gorian's fist was coming down before he could even do anything.
"AHH!"
Alzack pulled out his two revolvers, and Bisca quickly requiped a gun into her hand. However, their efforts were futile, before Alzack, and Bisca could even take aim. The gorian's fist was a few feet away from hitting Romeo.
This was it. That simple sentence echoed through Romeo's mind. He was gonna die like this, without even an opportunity to seize his guild's former glory. He closed his eyes not wanting to see what was coming next.
Romeo heard the thundering fist of the gorian's fist making impact, and clenched his eyes even tighter. Romeo's tightened jaw suddenly relaxed as his mind realized he hadn't been hit. Slowly opening his eyes he gazed at nothing, but a torn up orange and black jacket. Slowly, his gaze made it's way up, and he ended up staring at a head full of blond spiky hair. In front of him was a blond teen who had stopped a gorian's fist with his bare hands. Romeo felt his jaw drop.
LINENaruto was trotting down a never ending forest. His whole body ached, and he couldn't help but sway back and forth as he walked. His thoughts wandered endlessly as he tried to comprehend this odd world he was stuck in.
"Mages? Magic? Guilds? This place is very weird, and it didn't help that those bandits got in my way! I didn't even have anything….. and what are jewels?"
Naruto sighed, "Though if i hadn't ran into those bandits, I wouldn't have been able to extract all that intel."
Naruto placed his hand over his eye. He hadn't had the sharingan for long….okay he had only had it for a few hours. Yet for some very odd reason, he had found it so easy to use. A genjutsu that was impossible to pull off in the past, he managed to pull it off like second oddity indeed. Another thing that had caught him off guard was his ability to turn off the sharingan.
"Kakashi couldn't deactivate his sharingan…..could it because of my Uzumaki linage? Itachi did say something about Senju blood enhancing the sharingan…..maybe…."
Naruto scratched the back of his head as he continued to walk down this never ending forest. Taking a better a look at the trees Naruto realized that he had simply walked from one forest into another. Great….only if he had enough chakra for sensory purposes he could easily find the nearest civilization
As Naruto kept drowning in self pity a distant noise caught his attention. It sound like someone had pounded the ground with a lot of force. Too loud for it to be a falling object or a small animal. Could it be someone is out there. Realizing that there was a bit of distance he closed his eyes and tried to make a rational decision. If it really was someone it would be better to make sure without having to go over there. Taking a deep breath he pulled on the small amount of chakra left, and stretched his senses 30 meters into that direction. That's when he sensed it. Three people, and a very large creature.
Forgetting his pain Naruto's instinct took over, and he raced to check it out. Covering ground quickly he managed to reach the scene at the very last second. An oversized gorilla's fist hovered over a young 's hardened battle instincts took over. Before the gorian could even move his fist an inch closer to the boy, Naruto covered the distance between him and the moved in front off the boy, and quickly caught the fist with his bare hand. Naruto looked up at his hand, and watched as it begun to bleed. His skin had been bright red and injured. The gorian's fist didn't help his condition at all.
Naruto took a deep breath,and looked down at the boy behind him.
"You alright, kid?" Naruto asked as if rescuing children from monsters in a forest was nothing more than a common day occurrence.
The kid was speechless, and Naruto shrug his shoulders, "Must be one of the shy ones."
Pulling all the remaining chakra he had, he formed a rasengan with his other hand. He threw the monster's hand up, and slammed the rasengan into the monster's gut,
"Take this! RASENGAN!" shouted Naruto as the rasengan grinded into the gorian's stomach and sent it flying.
The monster was launched off it's feet and sent flying into a tree. The tree did little to stop the gorian's current momentum, and was toppled over in an instant.
Naruto grinned at his handy work, and turned around to look at the boy.
"All in a day's work."
Romeo's eyes widen as he looked at Naruto. For a moment he could have sworn that he saw the image of someone. Could he really be?
"Natsu?"
Naruto lifted an eyebrow. That wasn't the exact response he was expecting, but at last the boy had talked.
"Natsu? Who's this Natsu? My names Naruto Uzumaki." replied Naruto
Naruto then watched as a cowboy looking man, and a cowgirl looking girl walked up to them. He watched as the green haired girl ran up to Romeo, and checked up on the boy.
"Are you alright Romeo?"
Romeo merely shook his head, but couldn't stop staring at Naruto. Alzack was now staring at Naruto, and suddenly struck out his hand for a handshake. Naruto met his hand and shook it.
Alzack then asked, " Naruto was it? Thank you very much. I'm Alzack Connell and this is my wife Bisca."
Bisca gave Naruto a nod of acknowledgement, and Naruto shrug his shoulders, "It was no problem."
"Maybe we should be asking you if you're alright? You look like a mess." spoke Alzack as he he took a better look at Naruto. Naruto looked down at his tattered clothes, and took a deep breath.
"You have no idea…." replied Naruto as he thought of his shitty day.
Bisca, having finished checking on Romeo, stood up and gave Naruto a friendly smile. She then offered, "Well, if you need any help, we would be more than happy to help. It's the least we can do to repay you."
Naruto smiled back at Bisca, and almost jumped in joy.
"Thank you, your the nicest people I've met today. Honestly, fighting bad guys, and then running into bandits. It's been a long day indeed. If you could just point toward the nearest town that would be a big help." exclaimed Naruto.
Bisca and Alzack's eyes widen as they quickly realized what had occurred to those bandits. So this boy took out all those bandits like that?
Romeo who had been silent the whole time suddenly found his voice, and pointed towards the direction they where heading.
"If you follow the trial it will lead you to town."
Naruto gave the boy a big thumbs up, and said, "Great! I'll be going now, squirt. See ya Bisca and Alzack."
Alzack was about to stop Naruto to ask him more questions about the bandits, but suddenly he watched as Naruto took a step forward and collapsed.
"Naruto….Naruto!"
LINEDarkness….Naruto watched as his body ventured down a dark abyss. His body floated aimlessly through the void ignoring the logics of gravity. His body moved so lifelessly that he was starting to look like a puppet whose strings had been cut.
Then all at once he regained the sensations of having limbs. He started out by moving his fingers then his toes. Slowly he could feel himself regaining control over his own body. The only thing left for him to do was to leave this dark abyss. He tried to look for a light, but all he could see was darkness. Then for a moment he realized what was going on. His eyes were closed. Naruto opened his eyes at last.
His eyes gazed at a wooden ceiling. Naruto blinked a few times and realized he had no idea where he was. Naruto took a deep breath and slowly edged himself up. Looking around the room he realized no one was there. He was about to move, when he suddenly felt an intense amount of pain in his ribs. Naruto grabbed his stomach, and realized he might of bruised a few ribs. Then that's when he noticed it.
His whole body was covered in bandages. From head to toe. What was going on? Wait a minute. Naruto's head was suddenly filled with memories, and he remembered everything that had occurred. Maybe he had been captured, and now he was going to be mummified!
Naruto shouted in panic at the top of his lungs, "What the hell is going on!? Am I some type of holy sacrifice?!"
At the sounds of his shouts, the door had burst open. Bisca had appeared urgently looking around the room for any type of danger. She was oddly annoyed when she watched Naruto pounce around the room like a total idiot. Bisca shouted at Naruto, "What the hell are you doing? You shouldn't be moving like that!"
A chill ran down Naruto's spine as a too familiar deadly vibe came from the entrance of the room. Like a good kid he was, Naruto rushed to the bed and sat down quietly. Overcoming his fear he looked up and stared at the deadly voice. Only to meet a familiar face. Naruto stood up again, and pointed a finger, "I know you!"
Bisca did not get the opportunity to reply, when Alzack walked into the room. Alzack looked at Naruto at surprise not expecting him to have already be up and moving. He voiced his utter shock, "He's up already? Kinana said it might be days before he would wake up."
Naruto eyes widen as he stared at another familiar face. He was starting to picture together the pieces of the puzzle. He was more than likely saved by the lovely couple.
Naruto continued to speak, "Bisca? Alzack? You're the couple I met in the forest! Where's your son?"
Bisca and Alzack blushed at the sudden implication of having Romeo as their son. Sure they were married and had a daughter, but they still got embarrassed when people mentioned , Bisca managed to recover and responded, "Romeo isn't our son, but he is alright. Thanks to you."
Naruto scratched the back of his head feeling a bit embarrassed. He's never gotten used to getting compliments.
"No problem."
Alzack had composed himself at this point, and decide to answer the question the answer the questions Naruto probably had, "At the current moment you are at our guild, Fairy Tail. We have arranged for you to stay a few days until you recover."
Naruto unconsciously moved his hand to his left eye, and covered it for a moment. As he tried to process the information he gathered from the bandits.., "A guild….a place where shin-mages come together and form a sort of business. They take jobs, much like a hidden village."
Naruto paused for a moment, and couldn't help but place the sharingan at a higher regard. It was such a powerful tool, and he was lucky to have the natural instincts to use it. It was totally unfair that geniuses like Itachi and Sasuke could have such a powerful tool. Well, he shouldn't complain. He did have the Kyuubi.
Alzack blinked as he suddenly realized that Naruto's eyes were different colors. He then asked, "By the way, why is your right eye blue, but your left black?"
"Its...a transplanted eye. The…." Naruto paused for a moment. He needed to chose his next words carefully. Naruto did not want to send the wrong message to these nice people.
"The right eye is a transplanted one, when I got it they didn't have a black one." finished would be easier to say that his sharingan was a natural birthright, then trying to convince them that he had managed to transplant a magical eye.
Bisca rose an eyebrow at the response.
"They sell eyeballs?" inquired Bisca.
Naruto gulped. The lady wasn't stupid, he needed to be smarter.
"No, it's an artificial eye. You see my….grandmother was an exceptionally skilled medic, and she made it for me." replied Naruto. Yes half-truths are the best lies.
Bisca nodded accepting the answer.
"I see, my friend had a similiar situations just like yours. When she came to our guild, this woman gave her an artificial one too. Erza Scarlet, she was quite the monster."
"Was?" asked Naruto noting the change of tone in her voice. Naruto then looked over at Alzack whose shoulders had slumped down.
Bisca sighed, "You aren't from around here, are you?"
"No, not really." replied Naruto.
Alzack looked at Naruto, "Then allow me to tell you. You look pretty young so you probably were much younger, when the name Fairy Tail was considered prominent. 5 years ago this guild was the most powerful guild in all of Fiore."
"What happened?"
Alzack looked out the window, and at the same time chose to answer for Bisca.
"Well, each year we do something called an S-Rank trial, a trial that determines whether or not a mage is worthy of receiving the title of S-Rank."
"S-Rank trails? Are you serious? That sounds like a lot of fun!" beamed Naruto. It sounded like in this world you didn't have to have your name in some bingo book to be considered S-rank.
Alzack nodded in agreement and described his personal desires, "I personally wasn't able to participate in one, but S-Rank was something that all wizards inspired to be."
"Anyways,the S-Rank trials occur on a private property of ours, known as Tenrou Island. It just happened to be that our top mages were all on that Island, even our former Guild Master, Makarov Dreyar. Then the terror occurred. The island was completely wiped out by a dragon….a dragon known as Acnologia. In a single roar it completely wiped out the Island, and ever since we haven't been able to find a single trace of whether they survived or not." concluded Alzack.
"Ever since the large loss, we haven't been able to recover. To lose all of our top wizards, it hit us hard. There was a significant drop in mission requests, and because of that many wizards left to seek work somewhere else. We quickly went from the best to the worst guild in Fiore. In fact we're still paying some huge debts." added Bisca.
Alzack growled, "It ain't our fault, those idiotic Twilight Ogre. They keep taking advantage of us, by imposing the ridiculous amount of interest!
Naruto looked down at his bandages. This all reminded him to much of Gato. The main who had selfishly taken over the ports of the Land of Waves.
"I wish I could help you, but I don't have any money." murmured Naruto.
Alzack backed up a little, and he announced, "What a minute, I don't want to make it sound like we're demanding money!"
"I know, but I feel bad taking advantage of your hospitality, when you have problems of your own. If you don't mind I'll be taking my leave." confined Naruto as he stood up, and suddenly Bisca grabbed his arm.
"No wait a second mister. We don't need your pity either! Even if we don't have money, it doesn't mean we won't help a person in need. It was quite obvious that you needed help." countered Bisca.
Naruto scratched the back of his head, and apologized, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you."
Bisca and Alzack gave Naruto a reassuring smile, and ushered him back down. Then Bisca added, "If you need anything then just ask."
"Can I have some food then?" asked Naruto with a big grin.
Bisca and Alzack both sweatdropped at Naruto's lack of hesitation. What had happened at not overdoing his stay?
Bisca sighed and realized that this kid was an oddity indeed.
"This way."
LINE
Naruto eyes were a bit wide as he looked at Fairy Tail's Guild Hall. It was a large room, but not something he had expected it to be for a Guild Hall. It had a small wooden bar at the back, and a few old tables and chairs. Naruto couldn't help, but speak his mind, "Is this a back room?"
Naruto watched as Bisca and Alzack fell into a depression. Naruto gulped realizing he had done it again. Speaking without thinking. He then chuckled, "I guess you weren't kidding, when you guys needed help."
Bisca laughed nervously, and tried to keep from meeting Naruto's eye. She hated the situation they were in.
"Let's just get you something to eat."
Once again he was pulled away, and Bisca led him to a table close to the small bar. Naruto sat down,and tried to relax but his instincts begun going wild. He scanned the room quickly, and noticed that there wasn't more than around 10 members, and it looked like two of them were kids. Naruto watched as an aged, purple haired man sat down at his age really showed with his wrinkles and decreasing hairline. However, Naruto had to admit he liked his long white matched perfectly with the purple collered shirt underneath. It reminded him much of his father's white hokage cape.
"So, you're the mystery fella that my son won't stop raging about." the man abruptly asked.
Naruto looked at the man, Naruto studied him for moment. He looked a lot like that kid….Romeo.,
"Son? You mean that squirt Romeo?" inquired Naruto.
"Ahh, yes I thank you very much for helping him. Even though it was a duty left at the care of other people." coughed the man with quite a vibe. Naruto watched from the corner of his eye as Bisca and Alzack begun to sweat. This man was probably the a senior member or a guild master. Interesting.
Bisca had been hearing the conversation quickly moved to avoid trouble. She then hollered at Naruto, "Hey Naruto, give me a second. I'll get you something to eat."
"So, what's your name kid?" asked the man.
Naruto looked at him, "Naruto Uzumaki, you?"
The man paused before answering. Remembering the name into his head. Then he answered, "My names Macao Conbolt."
A brown haired man smoking a cigar appeared from behind Macao. He had a few wrinkles, but looked in better shape than Macao. The man readjusted his brown jacket after sitting down. The man then looked over at Macao.
"Macao, trying to recruit the blondie here?" he asked.
Naruto watched with amusement as a tick mark appeared on Macao's forehead, "I told you….to call me master!"
Naruto smirked, his guess had been right on the money.
The man simply ignored Macao and looked straight at Naruto. The man gave Naruto a strong look, but Naruto was not fazed. The man lessened his glare, and offered Naruto his hand. Naruto reached out and met his.
"The name's Wakaba Mine."
"Naruto Uzumaki"
"Fishcake?" asked Wakaba, and Naruto simply shrug his shoulders, "Whatever you want, I don't really care."
Macao gave a slight cough, and interrupted their conversation. Naruto looked over, and looked at the guild master.
"So, kid I heard you were pretty strong. Took down a Gurien with a single blow, while you were all beaten up. If you don't mind asking, how did you get hurt?"
Naruto could see the question nature of the man, and decided to play it safe. Kakashi had taught him that half truths where the best lies. So he would keep it that way. He then replied, "I was fighting someone….the fight got to it's climax, and the coward attempted to get away. He had a teleportation….technique, and was going to use it to escape. I tried to hop on for the ride, but things went wrong. The teleportation killed the other guy, but I barely managed to escape with my life."
"Teleportation Magic? Dead?" asked Alzack who had been silently standing behind Naruto He then asked alarmed, "Did you kill him."
Naruto looked over at the two other men. Their reaction explained it all. In this country killing must be taboo. Even for these wizards.
"Woah take it easy. I didn't necessarily kill him." reassured Naruto
"Allow me to explain teleportation magic. In order to teleport one usually needs a set location. The best way to teleport is too leave a mark or something to guide you. That's probably the safest way to use teleportation magic, but this guy took it too a different level. He didn't use markers, and that was his mistake. Without any markers he could easily end up anywhere. Since I tried to hop onto the ride, he must of messed up his technique…..now imagine if you were to teleport to the very center of something solid? Let's say a mountain. Do you think he would survive." explained Naruto.
Naruto watched as the explanation eased the tension, and regained him the trust he had earlier. "Perfect"
"Oh...I guess that makes sense." replied Alzack who back off a little.
"Sounds like a very powerful opponent, must mean you're a very powerful mage too?" asked Macao. "You're not affiliated to a guild? or happen to have a home do you?"
Naruto eyes fell to the ground. This man was sharp at coming at the right conclusions.
"Not at the moment…." mused Naruto
"Then why don't you join our guild? I'm sure you'll fit right in!" chimed Macoa.
Wakaba looked away and took a puff of his cigar, "Too soon, idiot"
Naruto didn't reply, and looked around the guild. Of course it wouldn't be too difficult to get along. There was like 10 members. However, it was starting to look like a blessing in disguise. This guild might be the perfect place to hide it out for the next 5 years.
Naruto's thoughts were suddenly interrupted, when Bisca came back with a few chicken legs. She placed them down in front of Naruto and smiled.
"Let him eat first….joining a guild is a big decision, Master." she interjected.
Macao smiled at the fact he was called Master, and took Bisca's words into consideration, "I guess you're right Bisca, enjoy the meal Naruto. I'll come back for your response."
Naruto then watched as Macao and Wakaba walked up, and moved to the bar. Bisca waited for them to leave before giving a nervous laugh.
"I'm sorry, but once they heard you were pretty strong….you get the idea." Bisca muttered.
Alzack also gave him a nervous smile, "I hope they didn't come off too strong."
Naruto was about to tell them not to worry, when he felt someone tug at his shoulder. Before he knew it some small child had climbed onto his shoulder. The kid's hands covered his face, and he could only hear the voice of a young girl.
"Mommy! Look he has whiskers!" chirped the young girl.
Naruto tore the assailant off him,and held the girl an arm length away. He blinked when he suddenly realized he was staring at a younger version of Bisca minus the hair. He had an idea who she was , but he asked anyways, "Ummm….who's this?"
Bisca didn't answer Naruto, and instead grabbed the girl and placed her on the ground. She then scolded at the girl, "Asuka! It's not nice to jump on people."
Asuka looked down at the ground looking guilty. The hat she was wearing threaten to fall off as her head was tipped down.
, "I'm sorry….it just I've never seen a boy with whiskers." muttered Asuka.
Naruto placed his hand on his cheek. Rubbing his fingers over his so called whiskers.
"Oh this? There just birthmarks." informed Naruto. Naruto then looked up at Bisca, and noted, "Don't worry about it. I don't mind at all."
Bisca was about to interject, but Azuka took it as a sign to do what she wanted. She jumped onto the table, and took a real close at Naruto's face. The girl stared at Naruto's birthmarks real hard, and then turned around to face her parents.
"Their so cool! Mommy can I get some!" chimed Asuka
Naruto laughed, as Alzack and Bisca turned a shade red. Alzack looked down at his daughter, denied her, "Asuka you can't get those….it's something he was born with."
Asuka pouted, and crossed her hands. For a moment Naruto thought she was going to make a scene, but her attention was suddenly stolen by the food on Naruto's plate.
"Ohh! Chicken legs! Can I have one!" cried Asuka.
Bisca was about to say something, when Naruto beat it too her, "Sure you can kiddo. There's more than enough pieces...one for you and one for me."
"Asuka you've already eaten." replied Bisca as she didn't appreciate the Asuka's rude behavior.
Naruto gave Bisca a grin.
"I don't think it will kill her if she eats one more? Right Asuka." insisted Naruto.
Bisca caved in, "Fine, if Naruto says it's okay go ahead sweetheart."
Naruto and Asuka were about to dig in, when they watched the door burst open. Four men quickly walked in. Naruto's eyes darted back to Alzack and Bisca looking for an indication of what was going on. However, all he saw was Alzack whisper something to Bisca, and he raced to the front with the others. Naruto then felt something shake in his lap. He looked down to see a look of fear stricken Asuka.
"There back…." she groaned.
Bisca sighed and asked outloud, "What do they want now?"
"Who are they?" whispered Naruto to Bisca trying to keep himself from bringing too much attention.
"There bad men who keep taking our money." whimpered Asuka. "They always trash the place, and pick fights with us."
Naruto narrowed his eyes, and met Bisca's confirming turned his head, and looked back at the four men. Maybe staying low-profile was going to be harder for him than he thought.
He begun to stand up, and spat, "Not if I'm around…."
Bisca grabbed his shoulder, and slammed Naruto back into his seat. Naruto was caught off guard by Bisca's strength. She was certainly more than what met the eye.
"Don't…..You're not completely healed, and we can't afford to pick a fight with them." snapped Bisca.
Naruto wanted to argue, but could see the seriousness in her tone. Not wanting to ruin the relationship with his new friends, he agreed to stay put.
"Fine"
Naruto sat back with Asuka, and watched the events unfold.
"Just as always, It's only noon and you already look so serious….." replied what looked like the leader. "That's why you're a puny little guild."
"Teebo…." growled Wakaba as he along with the other members confronted the men. Macao glared at the men, and tried to hold back his anger.
Macao grit his teeth before responding, "I thought I told you not to come anymore!"
"Hey, Hey….is it really okay for you to be talking to me like that?" asked Teebo, "After all, we are the guild that represents Magnolia, Twilight Ogre."
"What did you come here for Teebo?" asked Macao.
"This Month's Pay" replied Teebo as he begun to walk closer to Maco.
Macao's eyes widen at Teebo's reason. Macao shouted, "But it isn't due until another 4 days!"
"Our boss wants the money now." replied Teebo with a devilish grin.
Macao looked down, "We don't have enough money yet….just a few more jobs, and I swear we will get the money! On the day we promised"
"Come on now, when you were on the verge of collapse, who was it that came to the rescue of this run down tavern?" asked the shortest one.
"We were the ones who stepped in and loaned you the money, weren't we?" asked another.
"We wouldn't of accepted it, if we knew about the interest you would charge us with." replied a tall orange haired man who stepped in front of Macao's guild members.
"What did you say?" asked the chubby one of the Twilight Ogre.
"Stop it, Jet!" ordered Macao.
Macao looked at Teebo, "We will pay you the money in four days….like promised."
Naruto watched as Teebo kicked Macao across the room. The room quickly exploded, and all the guild members begun to get hot headed. Naruto narrowed his eyes again, and realized that soon a fight would explode in this guild.
Macao lay on the ground and shouted, "Fairy Tail stand down!"
Naruto watched as most of the guild members did exactly that. Even though the guild was small, Naruto had to hand it to the master. His members were loyal to him. However, Naruto watched as a familiar face walked up to the front of Fairy Tail's stood bravely in front of Teebo.
"We don't have any money to pay you guys…." he muttered.
"What's up with that attitude brat?" asked Teebo not liking the kid in front of him.
Romeo simply growled as his hand formed an odd circle, Naruto's eyes widen, "Is this how magic is used? By using these barriers that look like seals?"
He then felt a tug at his shirt. Looking down he was surprised to see Asuka hiding her face into his borrowed white shirt. Naruto didn't know why, but it fueled him with anger. He was right to think of Gato, when he thought of these men. Nothing more than savages preying on the weak. He loathed men like these.
"To have been tamed by punks like these….father and everyone else are cowards…." uttered Romeo as he broke Naruto from his thoughts.
"I'm going to fight! If things keep up Fairy Tail's name will be worthless!" shouted Romeo as a purple flame erupted in his hand.
Naruto smiled at the kid, and looked at Azuka. He then watched as Bisca had moved forward, and was no longer in position to stop him. Picking up Asuka he placed her on the ground, "It's going to be alright, Azuka. But right now I gotta go help your friend, Romeo."
Azuka wiped a tear, and shook her head before coming to her conclusion, "But won't you get hurt?"
Naruto chuckled, "Let me tell you a secret Azuka….I'm a ninja and ninja are a lot stronger than what they may look like.."
"A ninja? But aren't you a wizard?" asked Azuka.
Naruto put a finger to his lips, "No, I'm a shinobi, but don't tell anyone. People would get jealous if they knew how awesome I was."
Naruto put his forehead against hers, "So this our little secret okay?"
Azuka nodded as she finally stopped shaking from fear.
"Okay," she innocently replied.
Naruto took a deep breath. Showtime.
LINE
Romeo stood in front of Teebo prepared to go into a full blown battle. Teebo looked down at Romeo. He simply took a deep breath, and blew out Romeo's fire. Romeo's eyes widen at Teebo's actions. What just happened..?
"What?" gawked Romeo.
Macao who had been on the ground, quickly stood up. A scene too much for a father begun to unfold before his eyes. Macao watched as Teebo reached for his Kanabo.
Macao screamed, "STOP!"
"I'm going to teach you a lesson brat!" announced Teebo as he pulled back his Kanabo.
Naruto looked up at the fight, and reached for the fork on the table. He then whispered at Asuka, "Watch this"
Asuka watched in amazement as the fork glowed blue. Was this his magic?
Teebo pulled out his Kanabo, and slammed it down on Romeo. Romeo put his hands up in order to soften the blow to his face, but to his revelation nothing ever hit waited for the pain to explode on his harm, but a sense of deja vu rain through his head. He didn't open his eyes until the sound of metal hitting the ground ushered them open. That's when he saw Teebo's Kanabo cut in half.
For a moment Romeo could not believe the sight in front of him. He looked up at Teebo's face, and realized he was staring at something off to the side. Looking into the direction that Teebo was staring at he was met by the sight of a fork. A blue glowing fork that had embedded itself into the wall.
"A fork? Who did that?" questioned Teebo.
Everyone in the room turned to the direction the fork had been thrown. There stood Naruto with his hand extended, and his bangs covering his eyes.
Teebo growled, "And who exactly are you?"
"Naruto?" asked Macao unintentionally answering Teebo as he stared at Naruto in shock.
"Isn't that the new guy?" asked Jet.
Teebo growled, "A new guy? Then let me show you how it works around h-"
"Shut up" .
The members of Twilight Ogre took a step back. The threatening tone in Naruto's voice had shocked them. Naruto looked at Teebo, and revealing his eyes to everyone. Even the members of Fairy Tail looked amazed at Naruto's left eye. His pupil was bloody red, with 3 tomoe surrounding a could feel the menace radiating from the eye.
Teebo took a step forward, and asked "Who do you think you are?"
"Didn't you know it was common curiosity to give your name out first before asking for someone else's?" retorted Naruto.
Teebo responded, "I don't think you understand the situation brat."
Naruto mocked Teebo. , "Allow me to show you how it's done. The name's Naruto Uzumaki. Not to difficult?….Right?."
"Are you mocking me?" asked Teebo.
Naruto shook his head, and took a step forward.
"Let me tell you how it going to go down. You leave now, and never return. I won't allow you to trash this place, or beat anyone around anymore. This place is where these hard working people have dedicated their lives to keep running. Hear me out, if you touch a single hair on that boy or anyone else's….it'll be the last thing you'll ever do as a wizard." stressed Naruto
Teebo continued to growl at Naruto, and stated, "You think you scare me, brat?"
Naruto gave a smirk, and that was the last thing Teebo saw. In the blink of an eye Naruto crossed the room, and appeared in front of Teebo.
"Not the right answer"
Before anyone could react Naruto punched Teebo right in the gut, and send him flying out the door.
Jet's eyes widen, "He's so fast…. faster than me!"
Macao eyes were looking at the back of the boy, "What insane speed and strength. Look at that! He made that tiny fork into a weapon sharp enough to cut through his Kanabo! Could this boy be….the answer to our prayers?"
LINE_ CHAPTER ONE FINISHED! A/N
Kanabo - A traditional japanese mace covered in blunt spikes…pretty much a large round stick with pointy edges.
I really hope I did a good job with this. I recently started watching Fairy Tail, and I thought it was a pretty amazing show. I then read some Fairy Tail/Naruto crossovers and thought about giving this a shot. How did you like this? Should I continue? Did I do good job introducing characters?
