Reading The Fox Scroll

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Fairy Tail. I have the permission SpiritSage124 to a reading of their story.

Naruto is owned by Masashi Kishimoto and Fairy Tail is owned by Hiro Mashima respectively.

AN: This is my first story ever and I decided to a reading of one of my favorite Naruto/Fairy Tail crossover Fox Scroll (the story I am also the beta for). SpiritSage124 has agreed to look over these chapters as well as my beta. Enjoy the story! Please be nice with any comments or reviews. I know the intro is long but I want them out of the way for the first chapter so future chapters can simply start with the reading. I will BOLD any parts from the original fanic.

-reader Mavis Vermillion

Fairy Tail had finally done it and defeated both Zeref and Agnologia restoring peace to the kingdom of Fiore once again. The Fairy Tail guild in particular was in good spirits having won a long-deserved break from the constant fighting however there was a slight gloom as they lost their beloved first master Mavis Vermillion. Who lost her life taking down the immortal dark wizard Zeref Dragneel. Erza Scarlet a rather beautiful redheaded S-class Wizard tried her best to keep the gloom to a minimum. She was well known across Earthland as Fairy Tail strongest female wizard the Fairy Queen or 'Titania' both her stunning looks and amazing requip speed.

"Everyone I know the Shodai would not want us to lose our spirits in the wake of our victory! She woukld want us to continue to live the FairyTail way and continue with our heads held high!" Erza exclaimed with a proud smile seeing her guild mates start to resume their normal activities. Lucy and Levy discussing Lucy in progress novel, Natsu and Gray starting an argument (on gods knows what), Mira was serving drinks and the current master of Fairy Tail Makarov Dreyar drinking quietly to his predecessor.

All the sudden a bright light filled the guild as an unknown sensation enveloped the Fair Tail wizards.

"What is this?!" Erza shouted in shocked as the light didn't appear to harm them but started making the wizards fade away.

"This kind of magic is different then anything I have ever seen before!" Makarov exclaimed as the light made every member of Fairy Tail disappear from the guild hall. Unbeknownst to most rime itself had stopped across Fiore and all of Earthland.

The next moment the frantic Fairy Tail wizards were in awe of the room they appeared in next. It looked like a massive version of the guild hall except it was full on couches and various other furniture. As the wizards were getting used to being in an unknown place unharmed a giggle from the doorway behind them made every member gasp in shock.

"That voice and smell." Natsu Dragneel said in shock as he couldn't believe his ears and nose. Natsu is a powerful fire Dragon Slayer who was commonly referred to as Fairy Tail Salamder both for his fire dragon slayer magic and tendency to destroy things by accident.

"I am glad that spell worked and you all arrived safely. Sorry I couldn't tell you anything beforehand but I am pleased everyone is here together." Mavis Vermillion said with a pleased smile to the Fairy Tail wizards who were shocked behind belief to be seeing their first master alive again. Mavis has very long, wavy, pastel yellow-blonde hair that reaches down to her feet with a small ahoge; large green eyes with no pupils; peachy skin and a slight child-like build giving her a rather cute appearance.

"Shodai?!" the entire guild said in shock much to the amusement of the first master herself as she causally walked to the middle of the room with a book in hand.

"Judging by your reactions I am guessing the me you know has finally managed to pass away huh?" Mavis said sadly but proudly as she showed off her intelligence that made her the first master of Fairy Tail. "before everyone asks, no I am not the Mavis you knew who has risen from the grave. I am from a different timeline and dimension and I summoned you here because my magic could only bring a version of Fairy Tail that didn't have myself in it currently."

"What kind of magic could bring us to another dimension Shodai-sama?" Lucy Heartfillia asked politely. Lucy was a rather buxom young blonde woman who had currently 10 out 12 golden Zodiac spirit keys. Although she rarely wore the same outfit she typically wore a short skirt and black boots. She was currently trying to become a famous writer with help of her good friend Levy. Levy McGarden was a petite young woman with blue hair known for who book smarts.

"No need to be all formal everybody! You may call me whatever you wish! Answering your question Lucy it would be impossible for just magic to bring people across a completely different dimension." Mavi answered warmly making both the 3rd master and Laxus Dreyar narrow their eyes at the phrasing 'just magic'. Laxus was the grandson of the 3rd master Makarov with a very muscular build. He was a famous S-class wizard widely known known as Fairy Tail second strongest member as well as being a second-generation Lightning Dragon Slayer.

"Shodai! You can't expect to bring us here and not have anyone at home not notice that the entire Fairy Tail guild is gone for who knows how long!" Cana exclaimed not realising how rude this sounded to some of the fairy tail members like Erza and Makarov glaring at the Brunette for her disrespect towards their first master. Cana Alberona was a mature young woman with brown hair that typically wore a bikini top and Capri pants in public. She was known to be a potential S-class wizard for her skills along with drinking very large amounts of Alcohol that rarely made her drunk.

The first master meanwhile just giggled amused at being addressed so informally. "Cana you don't need to worry this rather unique space time magic also freezes time as well. So basically, not even one sec will pass in all the time you spend here." Mavis informed to a shocked but relived Fairy Tail that they wouldn't cause a public distress for disappearing.

"Wait you mean we can train here for years and no time will pass in Earthland?" Nats asked greedily with both Gray and even Erza drooling at the possibility. Gray Fullbuster is a powerful Ice Make and Ice Devil Slayer wizard. He strangely had a weird habit at stripping without any notice or even apparent awareness.

"No you couldn't! We wouldn't all this nice furniture to be destroyed as the result of your training, would we?" Mavis answered sweetly with a smile but definitely mad undertone making all wizards shake their heads in submission. Both Lucy and Makarov could only silently agree with the alternate 1st master being fully aware how destructive most wizards in Fairy Tail were even in casual training.

"Shodai is it me or you are you alive?" Makaov asked picking up how her body was not just a thought projection. The other members jolted in surprise particularly Cana (who used Fairy Glitter to revive their Mavis into her original body).

"Very clever Sandaime. Yes this is my actual living body just like I assume my counterpart but I am guessing the events that lead to this are different." Mavis confirmed but left hanging the details wanting them to listen to the book instead of her saying everything.

"Um Shodai-sama not that we aren't happy to see an everything but why did you use magic to bring us here in the first place? It couldn't possibly be just to chat with you in this timeless zone right?" Mirajane asked kindly with her young sister Lissanna nodding along. Mira and Lissana Strauss being sisters looked very close in appearance both with their white hair, pale skin along with having the Fairy guild mark both on their right thighs. However, the main difference was even though Mira was shorter then her younger sister she was much curvier and bustier. Mira was in fact the pin up model for Fairy Tail and was famous across Fiore for her bikini spreads in Sorcery Weekly magazine.

"Oops! Silly me I guess I forgot to mention that in the first place. I brought you all here to read about a hero that doesn't exist or even have a counterpart in your world. He changed the world for the better but I am sure your world went on good even without him in it." Mavis explained with a strangely happy smile at the book.

"forgive me Shodai but is this hero someone very important to you? Its just that smile is somehow different then when you look at us with pride.."Erza asked respectively making the rest of the guild realize that in fact Mavis face was somehow happier.

"he is someone very special to me and a lot of people in my dimension. Sorry cant spoil everything before we read." Mavis teased with a giggle seeing how let down her alternates guild members looked.

"I wonder if he will be a man?!" Elfman wondered out loud striking a typical pose making Lissana sigh. Elfman was the younger brother to Mira and older brother to Lissana who was a tall muscular man ho liked to shout out 'man' at any opportunity.

"Gray-sama! What do you think this mystery hero will be like?" Juvia asked her 'beloved' Gray lovingly. Juvia was a beautiful ample blue haired woman who was in love with Gray. Her unique brand of water magic allowed to turn herself into water allowing most attacks to slip into her without damage.

"How I would I know?!" Gray sighed in annoyance as Juvia quickly took his arm as some sort of pillow for her chest. Mavis watched this interaction with interest realising without a Naruto in their world some relationships would change as a result. Like Juvia clinging into Gray in that world.

"Anyways we might as start reading. Everyone get comfy as we start reading 'The Fox Scroll" Mavis declared opening the book as the Fairy tail members sorted themselves in couches confused on the books title. "By the way I will be using my Illusion magic to project pictures and video so you can see it as it progresses!"

Chapter 1 The Strange Scroll

Konoha Gates...

"Huh where the heck is that place?!" Natsu asked loudly much to annoyance of some of the older members of being interrupted after 2 words like Laxus, Erza and Gajeel. While other like Elfman, Gray and Macao were equally confused but far less vocal then the hot-headed dragon slayer.

"Um… Natsu-san…." Wendy said meekly tugging on the elder dragon slayer sleeve making him turn around and smile at the young girl. "since Mavis-sama is from a different dimension then us it would figure her dimension would have places ours didn't." Wendy reasoned getting an 'I see' expression from Natsu as he understood while the rest of guild smiled at the young girl for being rather smart. Unlike some other members like Gajeel or Gray who would've simply called Natsu 'an idiot'. Wendy Marvell was a younger sky dragon slayer with a petite cuter body with blue hair and brown eyes. Despite her young age her proficiency at healing magic and enchanting magic was top notch with even Irene Belsion acknowledging her might in the latter magic.

"aw how nice." Mavis thought to herself already seeing how sibling close the two-dragon slayer were. "Hmm I don't think Wendy has a special someone over here based on how relaxed she is to her guld mates but I could be wrong. No point of asking I guess." Mavis continued her thoughts as she continued reading the book.

Three men stood at the front gates of the great village Konohagakure for the last member of their group.

"Hey Naruto! Are you ready to leave for the mission?" One of the men called out to a young teenager, who was running towards them with haste.

"Yeah, sorry Yamato-Taicho, I just forgot something." Naruto responded back running up to the group.

"I am going to take a quick stop here everyone and tell you this is the hero we are here to read about. Naruto Uzumaki the saviour!" Mavis said proudly as the whole guild was confused seeing the picture (created by Mavis illusion magic) of a handsome young man with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was reasonable tall in what appeared to an absurd amount of orange jumpsuit. However, the most striking part was his 3 'whisker' like markings on each of his cheeks. Nobody wanted to voice their disbelief that this young man was the one their alternate first master was so fixated on until.

"Wait a minute. I don't wanna sound rude or anything but this kid who looks about Lucy or Natsus age is suppose to be some great saviour we are suppose to reading about?" Wakaba asked loudly with some members like Gajeel, Macao, Laxus, Warren and Max nodding their head at that.

"Actually he is 16 at this point (giggle) but you might wanna wait till I read more before making up your minds." Mavis said with a warm but slightly menacing smile making all the members step back in slight fear.

"Guys wait! If Mavis-sama trusts him we should at least wait before giving him a bad first impression right?" Lucy asked trusting the first master with Wendy, Erza and the Strauss sisters agree while Natsu and Elfman were only interested to see if he was strong ('that's Natsu for you' from Happy the cat) while the rest of guild decided to stay quite and listen.

Meanwhile Cana could not help but tease to lighten the mood. "Well for me this cutie can 'save' me anytime." Cana chortled at her own joke while Gildarts instantly went into overprotective dad mood over his 'little girl' much to her annoyance. While Cana got out of her fathers grip by telling him it would impossible for her to even see this saviour Wendy blushed mildly at Canas vulgar expression but quickly got over it

He had been called to go on a mission with Yamato, Gai, and Aoba. What that mission was, he didn't know yet.

"So what exactly are we going to be doing on this mission?" Naruto asked eagerly. The old lady Hokage had told him it was a super-secret S-Ranked mission and that she could only trust him to do it, so saying that he was a little excited would be a bit of an understatement.

"S-rank?" Erza being an S-class wizard felt the need to interrupt while Laxus, Gildarts and Makarov were also interested.

"Hmm I suppose in simply terms it is ninjas in my word class system. It would be equivalent more or less to S-class in Earthland terms." Mavis explained while the S-class wizards nodded in understanding. 'no need to tell them right now most S-rank ninjas do assassination or war like missions right now.' Mavis thought to herself.

Gai did his trademark nice-guy pose and grinned. "That is a most youthful question Naruto! Our mission is to-"

Poof!

Before he could finish explaining what their mission was, Naruto suddenly disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"...Naruto?"

Hargeon Town...

Lucy was sulking to herself on a park bench.

"Wait that's me! Before I met Natsu and joined Fairy Tail!" Lucy exclaimed in excitement as Natsu and Happy remembered this scene as well.

"How can this be? I thought since it would be a different dimension our counterparts' history would be different?" Levy being a smart young woman couldn't help but point out.

"sigh… look I will just say this. My Earthland and your Earthland histories are basically the same with some minor differences in the distant past. So just assume that before this point your counterpoint history is the same." Mavis explained in a somewhat tired but patient tone of voice as she kept reading.

"Stingy old man only giving a tiny discount and this old looking scroll. What's in this thing anyway?" She opened the scroll and found and a drawing of a fox with nine tails in it. "A fox painting? Is this all my sex-appeal is worth!?"

"Wait a minute this part didn't happen to me. I was trying to get the little doggy key Plue when this happened." Lucy remarked in confusion at this divergence in her past.

Unfortunately for Lucy some members of Fairy Tail didn't take this as seriously as her. Juvia thought happily her sex appeal must be greater then Lucy as Lucy couldn't even get a discount from an old man.

While Natsu and Happy were having a field day.

"that's what you were doing that day we met you Lucy?" Natsu laughed alongside Happy.

"You are so stupid Lucy!" Happy laughed as well making Lucy start getting really mad.

"Shut up stupid cat! And Mr. Burns everything you torched the harbour!" Lucy screamed back until Erza galred at her teammates at their stupid argument allowing Mavis to continue.

While she was raging, Lucy unconsciously gave off a little magic, and some of it seeped into the scroll.

Poof!

"Wah!"

"OOF!"

Something suddenly appeared out of nowhere in a cloud of smoke and fell to the ground. When the vapor cleared away, Lucy was able to see what it was. Or in this case, who it was.

It was a boy who looked to be around her age. He had spikey blonde hair, bright blue eyes and three whisker-like marks on his cheeks. He was wearing a bright orange and black jacket with a matching pair of orange pants. Black open toed sandals adorned his feet and his forehead was covered by a metal headband with a strange symbol on it.

"Haha you made this Naruto guy come right into your arms! You other must really luv him!" Happy teased getting a round of laughter from most of the guild to Lucy embarrassment.

"I am sure it would've happened if anyone touched that scroll! My other should be mature enough not to fall in love with the first guy she sees." Lucy said in defiance as Mavis smiled at the irony,

"Wh-who are you!?" Lucy all but screamed at the guy.

"Huh? What the heck just happened? Who are you?" He asked but wasn't answered.

Lucy looked at the scroll. 'Did he just come out of this scroll? I must have accidentally channeled some magic into it.' She was pulled out of her thoughts when a hand waved in front of her face.

"Hello? Earth to blond girl. OI!" Naruto asked impatiently, not being the type that liked being ignored.

"Geez 'blonde girl'? rude enough don't you think?" Lucy sighed at her other being dismissed to her hair colour.

"Well your other was staring off into space… what else was the guy suppose to call you?" Romeo asked quietly to Kinanna who quietly giggled in agreement. Romeo was a young man who idolized Natsu as an older brother figure. Kinanna was currently hired as a waitress at Fairy Tail bar with a notable busty figure.

"Oh! Sorry, I'm Lucy. Were you trapped in this scroll?" She asked with a bright smile.

Well that was a complete turnaround in attitude, he had to be careful of what he said around this girl. "I'm Naruto Uzumaki, and no, I wasn't trapped in that scroll. Where am I?" Naruto asked while looking around.

"Oh. Well nice to meet you Naruto, right now you're in Hargeon Town."

The boy frowned. "Hargeon Town? I've never heard of a place like that in the Elemental Nations before."

"Oh My . this must be quite confusing." Mira said while everyone turned to the beautiful model with questioning eyes. "Well Lucy thinks he is from Earthland and Naruto thinks he is still in his homeworld of Elemental Nations." Getting everyone to understand how awkward this encounter must be.

Lucy blinked and tilted her head to the side. "Elemental Nations? What's that?"

Naruto sent the girl a flat look. How did she not know what the Elemental Nations were? "Um, it's the name of the continent we are currently standing on."

Lucy raised an eyebrow. Was he trying to pull her leg or something? "This is the kingdom of Fiore. As far as I know, there isn't a place in Earthland called the Elemental Nations."

This time it was Naruto's turn to raise an eyebrow. He was about to call her bluff when they heard a commotion nearby.

"Did you hear? The great fire mage Slamander-Sama is here!"

"Happy we are about to make our appearance!" Natsu said excitedly while Lucy was worried what differences Naruto being there would cause to the poor habour.

"Aye sir!" Happy fly around happily glad he and Natsu were getting some book time.

"No way! Really!?"

"Salamander-Sama!"

Lucy gasped "Salamander? THE Salamander from Fairy Tail is here?" She squealed in excitement and ran off towards the crowd.

"Hey! Wait a second!" Naruto called out and ran after the girl.

When they reached the crowd, they fought their way to the front and found a man wearing fancy robes signing autographs.

Naruto scoffed.

"This guy doesn't look all that special." He said and looked over at Lucy, only to sweat-drop when he saw her eyes had hearts in them as she sighed dreamily. 'You've gotta be kidding me...' Naruto looked back at the popular man again and felt something weird in the air. 'This feeling… A genjutsu?' Naruto thought as he put one hand in a seal and the other on Lucy's shoulder, then brought forth some chakra from his vast reserves.

"Kai!"

"Hey another difference!" Lucy shouted in surprise while Erza was more interested in this so called 'Genjutsu'.

"Shodai-sama I wanna~~~~" Erza started only to be interrupted by Mavis sighing.

"Look it will explain all this stuff in the book but I will give you the short version now. Chakra is a ninjas energy like Ethenano is for us Mage. They are not quite the same but the book will get into the differences later. Genjutsu is basically illusions that you can interrupt by having ninjas inject somebody else's chakra into you." Mavi said a with a sigh of impatience at getting interrupted at ever turn. Levy in the meanwhile grabbed a book and started writing any info she could about that other dimension tio compare notes later.

With a burst of chakra, the weird feeling disappeared and he looked at Lucy again to find her now glaring at the man in the middle of the crowd. She really did change her emotions a lot.

"What's up with you?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.

"That guy is using an illegal magic called Charm." Lucy said without looking at him.

"Magic? What kind of jutsu is that?" Naruto asked, earning a strange look from the girl.

While they weren't looking, a boy with pink hair had snuck in through the crowd and ran up to Salamander. "Igneel! Is that you?" He shouted, gaining the attention of the whole crowd, including Naruto and Lucy.

"Well safe to say Natsu is the same over there." Lucy said drily while the rest of the guild particular Team Erza nodded their head in agreement. Natsu just shrugged his shoulders.

As soon as the boy's excitement had come, it vanished and he started to walk away in disappointment. "Another dead end huh?"

The crowd didn't seem to like this and began to beat him up, and Naruto couldn't help but laugh. "Poor guy, he should have known better than to mess with fan-girls." He said with a shiver, remembering the beatings he got from Sasuke's followers.

An image of Sasuke appeared making varied responses from the Fairy Tail guild. Most of the girls were not interested at all but had to admit similar to Naruto Sasuke had some handsome features. Elfman thought how "unmanly" it was that Sasuke seemed to ignore everyone. Natus however had a very different reaction.

"For some reason that duck haired guy really gets on my nerves!" Natsu declared making some members give him a weird look disliking somebody based on a picture. Carla thought it was because of this Sasuke resemble to Natsu rival Gray but decided not to point it out not wanting to add to the Fairy Tail mess.

Seemingly satisfied with their beat-down, the girls walked away in a huff. Naruto and Lucy walked over to the fallen boy and helped him up.

"Hey, you okay? That was quite the beating you took." Lucy asked in concern.

"Yeah thanks, what was their problem? Name's Natsu by the way." He greeted with a bright smile.

Returning the smile, Lucy introduced themselves. "I'm Lucy, and this is Naruto. Those people were under the effects of an illusion spell, so don't take it personally."

"Spell? Okay what exactly is magic?" Naruto really wanted to know what is was that Lucy was talking about.

Though before she could say anything, both Naruto and Natsu's stomachs growled rather loudly.

"OMG it's a second Natsu!" the guild exclaimed while Natsu got all mad.

"Wait a minute why do you make it sound like it's a bad thing to have somebody like me?!" Natsu exclaimed spewing out fire. Luckily quickly used Ice-Make magic to cool down the fires before they could burn anything.

"Its ok Natsu. I am sure this Naruto guy will be an ok guy if he is anything like you." Erza said soothingly getting Natsu to calm down

"Ugg..." Naruto grumbled while holding his stomach. "I was in such a hurry this morning I forgot to eat."

"Same…" Natsu said, also holding his growling stomach.

Lucy sighed and pointed towards a restaurant. "We can talk while we eat if you want."

"Yes please!" They both said in unison.

"Can I have some fish?"

Naruto and Lucy looked down to find a little blue cat wearing a backpack.

"A talking cat!?" Lucy yelled out in surprise.

"why were you and other you so surprised to see me the first time?" Happy asked abit annoyed.

"Its not out fault my normal people don't think that talking cats are actually normal." Lucy said quietly agreeing with her other that Happy was strange in their first meetings.

"Are you a summon?" Naruto asked looking at the cat.

"No, I'm Happy." The cat replied.

"Oh, nice to meet you." Naruto said and casually started to walk towards the restaurant with Natsu and Happy, leaving Lucy standing there at a loss of words.

"He accepted a talking cat, just like that?"

After ten bowls of ramen, Naruto belched and rubbed his stomach happily.

Lucy just stared at the boy with a mixed expression of awe and disgust.

"Well he eats like Natsu." Mira said with a giggle as Natsu was willing to eat almost any kind of meal along with eating "quality" fire. Lucy could not help but agree while Natsu was confused on why people would be annoyed at people eating what they wanted at their own pace.

Shaking her head, she decided to start up a conversation. "So, you saved me from the Charm magic, right? Are you a mage? What kind of magic do you use?" She asked a little too eagerly, getting closer and closer to his face with each question.

Putting a hand up to get some space, Naruto shook his head. "No, I'm not a mage. I'm a ninja. What I used was a release technique to dispel that guy's genjustu."

"Oy my goodness you are both equally confused. You would both make such a cute couple!" Mira claimed while Cana gave her partner a wink of approval. Lucy could only sigh remembering Miras disastrous attempts to set her up with Natsu and suggesting her going out with Gray.

"Oh, well thanks anyway." Lucy said and smiled. She still didn't really understand, but she could always ask him about it later.

Naruto laughed sheepishly and scratched his cheek. "It was no big deal, really."

"She likes you..." Happy teased.

"Haha the other me and I knew it! You really like him!" Happy teased while Lucy grumbled sure her other would NOT fall for somebody who already appeared far too much like Natsu for own personal tastes.

"Shut up you stupid cat!" Lucy screamed already annoyed at Happy teasing. Mavis giggled having read ahead making everyone look at her confusion.

"Sh-shut up you stupid cat!" Lucy stuttered, her cheeks turning red. "Who do you think is paying for your meal?"

Now the rest of guild let oud laughs at seeing Lucy repeat her other self words. While Lucy blushed in embarrassment as getting repeated.

The cat stuffed his face into his fish. "I'm Sowwy Lucy-Sama!"

Naruto laughed at their interaction.

"Hey Naruto, what's that chakra stuff you keep mentioning?" Natsu asked between bites.

"Hm? Oh, well chakra is the energy I use to do my techniques. Like ninjutsu." Naruto then rubbed the back of his head. "I would tell you more about it but I'm not very good at explaining things. I didn't really pay attention when I was taught all this stuff."

Levy was pretty disappointed not to hear more about chakra but thought that someone else in the book would explain more indepth.

"Where exactly are you from?" Lucy chimed in. "You say you don't know what Fiore is, or even magic."

"Wait you don't know where this place is?" Natsu asked with an amused look.

Naruto sighed. "All I remember is one moment I'm about to go on an important mission, and the next I'm here."

Lucy brought out the scroll and opened it. "It's gotta be this scroll's doing."

Naruto looked at the scroll with interest. "Hey, let me see that for a second."

"Oh, sure." She said and handed him the scroll.

"This is...!" When Naruto opened the scroll, he was surprised to find a painting of the nine tailed fox in it. 'The Kyuubi... Does that mean this is a summoning scroll?' If this was a summoning scroll, then where in the world was he?

While the guild was still trying to figure out how exactly these 'summoning scrolls' worked Mavis had a sad but also happy expression on her face reading about the summoning scrolls. However before anyone saw her face returned to happiness. Makarov in particular was interested despite his many years of learning magic he never heard of any kind of magic like this summoning scroll.

Lucy raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong?"

"Where did you get this?" Naruto asked with a bit of urgency in his tone.

"I got it from this town's magic store. Why?" Lucy said, he was starting to worry her a little.

Naruto looked back at the scroll. "I think this is a summoning scroll. Back where I come from, it's what we use to move things from great distances in an instant. Seeing as no one seems to know what the Elemental Nations is, I'm guessing I'm a long way from home."

While Lucy processed the information, Natsu snorted. "Maybe you got summoned from another dimension!" He joked and laughed.

Naruto's eyes widened, maybe he really was in another dimension. As silly as that sounded, it would kind of make sense. He couldn't read the menus of the restaurant, and he'd never heard of a kingdom named Fiore in his life.

"That's pretty weird." Levy remarked getting peoples interest.

"whats wrong Levy-chan?" Lucy asked one of her closest friends.

"Lu-chan its just weird that 2 dimensions can have the same language but not the same writing." Levy replied as they eagerly looked at Mavis for answer. However, she stubbornly refused to say anything else as she got back to the book.

He shook his head, it was best not to jump to conclusions. He'd never heard of a scroll that could pull someone into another dimension. Maybe he really was just far away from home. After all, his knowledge on geography wasn't the best.

Having decided on a plan, Naruto stood up from his seat. "I'm gonna go ask that shop keeper if he knows anything. Thanks for the food." He said and waved goodbye.

"Hey, hold on a minute!" Lucy put money on the table and turned to Natsu and Happy. "This should cover for the food, nice to meet you guys!"

The two got up from their seats and got on their hands and knees to bow. "Thank you very much!" They said together.

Getting embarrassed over the stares they were drawing she yelled at them and ran off after Naruto. She couldn't just let the guy wonder off on his own and get lost.

"Naruto!" Lucy called after the shinobi, who was currently standing in front of the restaurant with a hand on his chin.

"You luv him!" Happy instantly jumped in with Natsu. Mira smiled seeming to agree while certain members like Carla thought he was too reckless. Erza thought carefully.

"Hmm. Naruto seemed like an honest guy so if your other started chasing hi I would see no reason to stand the way." Erza said much to Lucy growing embarrassment.

"Hou guys are all wrong! Theres no way another me would like somebody so quickly. She is prob just giving him directions!" Lucy said in denial. Mavis was beyond amused at how much Lucy was denying the idea her other could have feelings for Naruto. Although she noted it made sense since she knew how long it took for Lucy in her own world to admit her feelings (and even longer for Naruto to learn about those said feeling).

"Huh?" Naruto turned around and saw Lucy come out of the restaurant. "Lucy? What are you doing here?"

Lucy stopped right next to him and sent him a flat look. "Do you even know where the magic store is?"

Naruto realized he had no idea where he was going and scratched his cheek. "Hehe, nope. Mind helping me out?"

Lucy sighed. "You're hopeless, you know that?" She grabbed his arm and led the way.

"Sorry, but I don't know where that thing came from. I just found it in my shop and was giving off a special feeling." The shop owner explained and the two sighed and left the shop.

"Where did this thing come from?" Naruto wondered aloud while looking at the strange scroll in his hand. The idea of him being in another dimension was starting to sound more likely to him now.

"Now he is starting to get it." Laxus said unamused at the ninja simply mindedness, Most of the guild seemed to agree started adding some more jokes to the mix. However Wendy thought it was started to get kind of mean.

"Hey everyone can we be nicer? I Mean it is a strange concept of alternate dimensions as even most of us didn't think they existed until Edolias itself used an Anima on us…." Wendy said with a shockingly amount of confidence.

"Geez Wendy we were just teasing but that's quite some reaction. Maybe the other you has a thing for Naruto huh?" Cana teased pulling the younger girl into her ample chest whispering the last part. Wendy face seemed to burn red in embarrassment of the thought of any version of herself liking somebody like that.

"We could ask a mage guild for help." Lucy suggested.

Naruto looked up from the scroll and raised an eyebrow. "A magic guild? What's that?"

"It's a place where mages gather and go on missions to help people and get rewards. I want to join Fairy Tail!" She explained with starry eyes.

Naruto shrugged. "Sounds like a good place to start. Sure, I'm down. So where is this Fairy Tail?"

They were both startled when a man walked out of the bushes behind them. "You guys want to join Fairy Tail?" Salamander asked coolly.

"This guy…." Lucy said with notable distaste.

"Hey he's not so bad once you get to know him." Natsu tried to cool down Lucy only to make her even more annoyed.

"Easy or you to say. You weren't drugged by the guy and about to be sold off…." Lucy said quietly. However, she decided it wasn't worth fighting about so she gave Mavis a nod to continue reading.

Naruto pointed an accusing finger at him. "Dude! Not cool! Who randomly comes out of bushes like that!?"

Lucy sweatdropped. 'Coming from a ninja...'

The man shrugged it off. "Never mind that, I heard you wanted to join Fairy Tail, is this true?" He asked with a glint in his eye, one that Naruto instantly disliked.

"I don't like this guy, Lucy. Let's leave." Naruto said and started walking away, but he was quickly cut off by Salamander.

"Wait wait wait!" He said frantically before regaining his cool. "I'm having a party tonight. If you show up I can probably get the master to let you join."

"I can join Fairy Tail!?" Lucy beamed, but Naruto seemed skeptical.

"I don't know..." Something sounded a little off about all of this and Naruto didn't like.

"Yes, I am a famous mage from that guild after all. Just come to my party and you can join." He said and he started walking away, but not before glancing back at Naruto. "Oh, and just the lady, no men allowed." With that he disappeared back into the bushes.

"That's rude." Mira and Erza both said with a frown on their faces.

'Well I didn't want to go to your stupid party anyways…' Naruto thought with a scowl and turned to Lucy, who was jumping for joy.

"If I go to his party I can join Fairy Tail!" Lucy cheered.

"I don't know Lucy, that guy was pretty sketchy."

She waved him off. "Ah don't worry, I'll just put up with him for the party and we can go to Fairy Tail!"

Erza looked sternly at Lucy. "The other you shou'lve listened to Naruto and just left. It seems highly suspicious especially since Natsu is Salamander not this mystery guy."

"Yeah Lucy if you told me you wanted to meet Salamander and wanted to join Fair Tail I would've shown you how right away!" Natsu added with Lucy not wanting to face Erza's wrath simply argued with Natsu.

"Well based on the rumours I didn't think the Great Salamander would turn out to be some Pink Haired, Fire breathing, gluttonous dragon slayer!" Lucy retorted not wanting to have her past self to look stupid.

"Well its kinda true that most rumours on all of Fairy Tail is usually abit different then who we really are." Mira offered diplomatically knowing some rumours about herself were greatly inaccurate.

Natsu laughed off the insult while Mavis choose this moment to continue to read.

Still unconvinced, Naruto frowned. But he reluctantly nodded. "If you say so..."

Later That Evening...

Naruto sat at the docks as he waited for Lucy to return from the party.

"Guess I might as well take a nap while I'm waiting…"

He leaned back to get some sleep when he noticed something in the sky, and it was flying towards ship that the party was being held on.

"Natsu?" Naruto wondered aloud when he took a closer look. Did Happy always have wings?

"Hey we are back!" Natsu exclaimed happily.

"Is it me or does this story seem to follow wherever Naruto goes?" Cana asked. When her guild mates gave her questioning looks. "I mean it doesn't showed what happened to Lucy or Natsu until they physically meet up with him." As the members gave some thought and looked over at the Shodai she only giggled and shrugged her shoulders. Before she read she did give a wink to Lucy making her worried on what her other self would do in the future.

A couple minutes passed and Naruto was about to go and investigate when he noticed a large wave making its way towards him.

"Whoa!"

Naruto jumped out of harm's way and onto one of the nearby buildings.

As the wave crashed onto the docks, he watched as the boat slid onto the harbor. Taking a closer look, he could see Natsu on the ship fighting Salamander.

Well, fighting was a bit of an overstatement. The pink haired teen was beating the living tar out of the guy. "Did Natsu just eat fire…?"

"Naruto!"

He looked down and saw Lucy and Happy waving at him, trying to get his attention. Naruto jumped down, surprising them with the action, and met with them halfway. When he got to them, he noticed that they were both soaked to the bone.

"Hey guys, what happened?"

Lucy gained a sour look on her face. "That guy wasn't the real Salamander, he was a fake tricking girls into becoming slaves."

"I see now!1 That is why you seemed disappointed to see Bora at our play back then Lucy." Erza exclaimed remembering (in her opinion) their great plays job.

"Oh come on Lucy are you still holding a grudge?" seeing Lucy glare Natsu continued "I mean he was going to sell you to a modelling agency which is what you wanted right?" Natsu asked cluelessly

"First of all, I had no idea that is what he wanted to do with us, second if he wanted to get girls to models he shouldn't: pretend to be a famous Fairy Tail wizard, make up a fake party. drug girls, tie them up and not even explain what he was going to do with us! Besides I wanna be a writer now not model!" Lucy ranted to a scared Natsu. Happy for once having no comment fearing for his life.

Naruto frowned deeply and cracked his knuckles. "I'm gonna teach that guy a lesson-"

"That won't be necessary." Happy interrupted, gaining Naruto and Lucy's attention. "Natsu is the real Salamander of Fairy Tail." He said with a surprisingly dark expression, and the two looked at the cat in surprise.

Natsu, having just finished his "fight" with the fake, was now walking towards the group.

"Aw I wanted to see the new guy fight!" Natsu whined disappointed that it happened like in their world.

"You realize you are basically booing a fight about yourself, right?" Gray remarked but secret also abit disappointed this new guy didn't fight either.

"I mean Bora was so weak and I wanted to see how the new guy fights!" Natsu replied back making Mavis giggle.

"Don't worry Natsu, Naruto will have plenty of fights for you to watch. Sooner then later!" Mavis noted making Natsu start getting all fired up in excitement. Mavis could not help but be amused at the irony of this Natsu being annoyed at missing an opportunity of seeing Naruto fight. Yet the Natsu in her world was constantly mad at being "outshone" by Naruto in every major fight." Aka losing the spotlight in most major fights,

Naruto pointed at him. "How come you didn't tell us you were a member of Fairy Tail?"

Natsu just stared at him blankly and shrugged. "You didn't ask."

"Get them!"

"They destroyed the Harbor!"

"Well it turned out the same as our past with a few minor changes." Lucy remarked to Natsu and happy who nodded back. The rest of Fairy Tail was pretty satisfied seeing an alternate version on how Natsu and Lucy made it to Fairy Tail.

The group turned when they heard the shouts coming from across the street, a group of men in robes with a cross design on their chests were running towards them with angry looks on their faces.

Natsu paled and grabbed Naruto and Lucy by the hands before he starting pulling them. "Crap, Rune Knights, we gotta go!" He yelled as they ran, Happy flying just above them.

"Where are we going?" Naruto and Lucy both asked.

Natsu grinned a toothy grin. "To Fairy Tail!"

"That's the end of chapter 1 everyone!" Mavis shouted cheerfully.

"Well based on what Lucy and Natsu have said I am pretty shocked despite it mostly being the same as their history all the minor changes one person can have in somebody life." Erza noted wisely with Mavis smiling fondly knowing just how many changes happened to peoples lives because of Naruto.

"Ok I can start the next chapter if everyone is~~~" Mavis began only to get cut off by Mira.

"Sorry to interrupt you Shodai-Sama but do you mind if we take turns reading each chapter?" Mira asked in her sweet motherly kind voice. Mavis thought for a moment and ended up eagerly giving the book over to the gorgeous White haired model.

"Ok the next chapter is called 'You'll Fit Right In' Mira started as the guild members eagerly started to listen about the man that an alternate Shodai declared a saviour.
