Welcome! Wow its been some time since i stopped writing and have since take interest in several other things. Warcraft 3/World of Warcraft and Naruto happen to be 2 very large interests of mine. This story is something ive kicked around on the TFF and finally got around to writing it. Naruto and Warcraft names, characters and anything else do not belong to me and belong to their respective creators/authors. Now onto the story.
"Greetings citizens of Konoha, and welcome to the fourth year of the vanquishing of the Kyuubi, it was on this day that we honor the Yondaime's ultimate sacrifice we honor his valor and those that fell during the attack! Let the festivities commen..."
The elderly kage stopped his welcoming speech as a large spike of energy was felt throughout the village, even the civilians without the enhanced chakra senses of the ninja felt the hair raise on the backs of their necks at the feeling. It was behind the elderly Hokage that the energy was felt centered almost perfectly in the main square of Konoha. 6 floating crystals faded into view as they spun in a small circle that was slowly growing larger. Arcs of flashing electricity arced between the crystals as a small black hole warped and twisted larger and larger until a red clad boot stepped through. The figure that stepped out was clad in a heavy red cloak that obscured his armor clad form, the shoulder and neck piece of the armor helped in creating an imposing aura. The strangest thing however was the elongated ears, the long eyebrows and the 3 burning emerald spheres that swirled lazily around his head.
As the first the red clad person stepped out of the portal 2 rows of 3 stepped out of the portal as well, the first 2 clad in full armor and weilding a double ended sword and sheild, the next 2 floating females that radiated power, several men in the gathered crowd were smacked for staring at the tight bodice of the female, and finally 2 males that hummed with holy energy. Each stood in 2 columns to the right and left of the first.
The first through the portal glared at the assembled citizens with the same air of superiority that a human looks down at a bug with, he swept his gaze over the people of Konoha till he locked eyes with the Hokage on the traditional platform used for ceremony and marched forward with his followers keeping step behind him. Upon reaching the stairs of stage he climbed them in smooth steady steps, his metal boots oddly noisy to the civilians so used to hearing the near silent footsteps of ninja. The man with the green spheres stopped in front of the third and spoke but four simple words that all of the gathered could hear and sent a universal shiver down their spines.
"Where is my son." Ground out the leader of the red wearing group.
"Who are you and who is your son exactly?" Questioned the Hokage as he both settled into a nonthreatening stance that allowed for a quick defense and made a near unnoticeable hand movement to alert the ANBU.
"I am Kael'Thas Sunstrider Leader of the Blood Elves, and I come to these lands in search of my son. My son would be 4 on this day, when he was taken from us, no one is sure HOW he was taken or why, but after years of searching we have learned that he was taken here..." Kael murmured as his eyes swept over the assembled crowd looking for someone that would match his missing child.
"There is only one child that matches your description and he's..." Sarutobi turned toward the corner of a building where a shock of blond hair peeked around the corner.
"...Naruto"
"Nar...uto?" Repeated Kael testing the word out loud as he turned to see where the old leader of this village was looking and spotted the blond haired boy and started a slow non threatening walk toward the corner of the building where the boy was peeking out.
As the strange man came toward him, Naruto tried to appear unassuming as to go unnoticed but it failed as the man stopped in front of him and knelt down.
"Are you...Naruto?" The strange man asked.
"Y-yes..." Naruto couldn't help but stare into the mans strangely glowing green eyes.
"Naruto...do you have a family?" asked the man. Naruto shook his head at this while staring at the ground sadly.
"No...i live in the orphanage...they treat me alright, though the other kids make fun of my ears..." Mumbled the child.
"Your ears? Can i see them?" The man asked suddenly eager.
"No! Your gonna make fun of them!" Retorted Naruto. At this the man chuckled softly.
"My ears are hardly what you would consider normal little one." He said gesturing to his own long and pointed ears.
"A-alright...but no laughing!" Exclaimed Naruto as he pushed back the sides of his hair to reveal slightly pointed ears. It was at this revelation that Kael couldn't stop himself from letting out a quiet sob and hugging the boy to him.
"My god...its you! Its really you!" Kael sobbed into Naruto's shoulder.
"W-what are you talking about?!" Exclaimed Naruto as he pushed himself away from Kael.
"M-my apology's Naruto...sniff but...i've been looking for you for a very long time...i'm your father.
"My...father?" Gasped out Naruto before his eyes rolled back and he collapsed into a dead faint.
As the Sandaime Hokage laid the unconscious Naruto on a couch in his office he sat down heavily at his desk, his old bones creaking and popping as he did so.
"You have to understand it wasn't that we WANTED to put a demon inside of a child, it was that we HAD to." Sighed the Third as he rubbed his forehead as he and Kael talked about Naruto's early childhood.
"So let me get this straight...4 years ago a demon of such power that it was said to be limitless attacked your village. Your leader at the time thought it best to find a baby to 'seal' this demon into the baby...correct?"
Sarutobi eyed the twitching green sphere of fire nervously and nods.
"So he at the time felt it unnecessary to find out where the child came from...other than its ability to hold and wield more energy then your frail human forms...correct?
Sarutobi sweating slightly nods again.
"So a recap...my son after a accidental burst of chaotic energy was transported here found by your snort Hokage where he saw fit to seal a demon of immeasurable power into him, then expects the families of the dead and dying to LIKE the child? As well as grow up to LOVE this village?"
Sarutobi sweating bullets reaches for the button under his desk to call the ANBU in case of any hostile action.
"I must say I'm...ecstatic!"
As this was said the Sandaime's finger slips as he was about to press the button and stares open mouthed at the seated elf across from him. Grinning ferally as he thought of how he could stop being so relient on the demons that his master Illidan provided his people and possibly tap into the demon that his son housed.
"You do realize that i cannot let you take him." Sarutobi said as way of changing topic.
"And what right do you have to deny a father his son?!" Growled Kael as his gauntleted fists curled around the creaking wood of his chair. In response the Hokage holds up his hand and ticks off points.
"You have no proof that YOU are his father, strange ears aside, you come to claim him in such a manor that could be taken as threatening, and you bring with you a group of armed and powerful soldiers."
"I don't care what you say old man! I WILL have my son returned to me!" Yelled Kael as he shot to his feet. "You have NO RIGHT to keep him from me!"
"If you are so sure of Naruto's heritage why not prove it? Allow some of my doctors to perform a few genetic tests."
"BAH! Fine, if thats what it takes to leave this human infested hole with my son i'll do it."
Nodding despite Kael's rudeness he had his ANBU find and bring to his office Konoha's best doctor in the village. It took very little time to perform the tests although to Kael as his entourage who were waiting at the back of the room, it took forever, until finally the doctor's hand stopped glowing emerald where it was located at Kael's shoulder and straighted.
"Prince Kael...you are the father."
It was unfortunate that this was the first sentence that Naruto heard as he came back to the waking world for it sent him straight back to the land of Nod.
Naruto couldn't believe it...he had a father! He had family! There were other people with ears like his! Even after the 2 hours needed to gather his things from the orphanage Naruto's 4 year old brain could hardly believe the radical changes that had occurred to him on his birthday.
"Are we prepared for our departure lieutenant?" Questioned Kael as one of his subordinates packed Naruto's belongings.
"The last of his things have been packed and we are awaiting your command to depart." responded a SpellBreaker.
Kael nodded and turned to Naruto who was previously watching the other Spellbreaker place all of his things into a bag that should not have been able to hold it all. (1)
"Naruto, are you ready to go?" Asked Kael to his son.
Naruto blinked out of his stupor and nodded.
"Can i say goodbye to the jiji though?"
Kael said nothing but nodded to Naruto's request all the same. Naruto turned to the solemn faced Hokage watching from the door of Naruto's orphanage room, turned his gaze to the small boy as he hugged him around the waist.
"I'll miss you jiji..." murmured naruto as he hugged the elderly Hokage. Sarutobi gave a sad nod as he knelt and hugged the blonde boy. "I'll miss you too Naruto."
Naruto pulled away from the embrace and turned to his newly found father.
"I'm ready to go..."
Kael nodded again and stepped past the Hokage and started the short trek back to the town square which held the portal guarded by the other Spellbreaker, the sorceresses and the preists.
As the group walked Sarutobi slipped behind and walked next to Naruto.
"Naruto...you will always have a home in Konoha..."
"I know jiji." Replied Naruto as the group entered the square.
"Alright Naruto, are you ready to go?" Questioned Kael to his son.
"Uh-huh..." returned Naruto as he gazed at the swirling purple portal.
"Then lets get moving." Said Kael as he motioned for his escort to take the portal first, before taking Naruto's small hand in his gauntleted one. As Naruto turned his head as his father led him through the portal and to his new life he saw a small tear fall down the Sandaime's face just before the portal snapped closed.
