This, dear readers is chapter 2, took a bit of work to get the OC's to the way i like...but i did it. Now for those of you concerned about what class (if any) Naruto will have, fear not for he shall! I just however won't say what it will be, trust me though you'll be surprised.
Naruto blinked as both he and his father appeared In a messy library with a large glowing blue glyph on the floor. Looking around he saw several various people that looked like his father and the people that came with him panting heavily and drinking water, feeling a tug on his hand he looked up and saw his father grinning at him as he pulled Naruto aside for a private conversation.
Kneeling down so he could speak face to face with his son Kael sighed heavily and looked at his son's face.
"Naruto...I have to return to the Tempest Keep, but i cannot take you with me so I'll leave you In the care of our people here. You will be treated as my son...a prince of the Blood Elves should be! I'll visit when I can son but I cannot promise It will be often."
Seeing the tears spill from his child's eye he sighed wearily and brushed them away with his hand.
"Naruto...I love you...wait, today Is your birthday! Oh how could I have forgotten In all the excitement!" Kael chuckled as he reached under his breastplate to grab a small blue bag and gently pushed It into Naruto's tiny hands.
"This Naruto is an ancient Sunstrider family heirloom...I want you to keep It to remind you of your family and of me...can you keep It safe for me?"
Naruto tearfully clutched the small bag to him as he nodded happily to his father. Kael In turn smiled back, rose to his feet and ruffled Naruto's hair.
"By now Lor'themar Theron should have been made aware of who you are and will arrange for someone to take care of you and show you around our city."
"W-when will you come visit me agian?" Questioned the young prince to his father as he walked back to the center of the room where a new portal was being opened.
"I'll come back In a few months time to see how you are alright son?"
Naruto nodded happily as he ran to his father to give him one last hug. Kael smiled fondly and squeezed his son In return before releasing him.
"Remember son, keep your gift safe!" Kael called before he disappeared into the portal.
Blinking and realizing he never even looked at his gift, carefully uniting the leather clasp at the top of the bag he fished around until his hand closed on a warm object that he pulled out. What Naruto saw was an egg...a red and orange egg that was hot to the touch.
Walking out of Mage training room Naruto passed through the silk curtain and Into the main chamber of the building where he saw one of the floating ladies that came with his dad smiling at him and waved for him to come closer.
"Well little prince," the lady said In a soft melodic voice, "my name Is Zaedana, I'm a Mage trainer here and If you ever need me I'm usually In that room right there." Naruto turned to where she was pointing and found himself facing the room he just came out of.
"You've certainly had a busy day, haven't you?
Naruto nodded at this as he both rubbed his eyes and clutched the blue bag to his chest. The floating lady laughed at this and she scooped him into her arms and carried him into the throne room of Sunfury Spire. Naruto layed his head against Zaedana's shoulder as she hefted him up a little higher and brushed some of her platinum blond hair behind her ear.
"Well little prince, before you can go to sleep tonight you have to meet just a few more people." She whispered as she stroked his hair, and approached the 3 Blood Elves in the center of the room.
"My lords, may I introduce Prince Naruto Sunstrider, Lord Kael'thas' son.
Zaedana pointed at a gaunt gray-haired elf with his hair in a high ponytail flanked by two other men, "This Naruto is the Steward of Silvermoon Lor'themar Theron...he's like the uh... What did you call him? Oh, Hokage! Yes he's like a temporary Hokage while your father Is away. This Is Grand Magister Rommath, he's in charge of the mages in our city. And lastly we have Halduron Brightwing, the Ranger General he makes sure none of the scourge can get In."
Finishing her explanation Naruto looked up bleary eyed at the three men present, red with a mask, and the other one in green and brown armor he noted before resting his head back on the sorceresses shoulder.
"I apologize for his rudeness but it seems our little prince is tired.", Zaedana chuckled as the men observed their prince.
"A bit small Isn't he?", commented Theron as he leaned in close to examine the almost slumbering form of Naruto.
"Hush Theron! He Is but a child, he still has much growing in him.", chuckled Halduron Brightwing as he ruffled Naruto's hair.
"Hmm...he has much mana In him...", observed Magister Rommath not moving from his position, "He'd make a good mage."
"Bah! He's but four! Let the lad enjoy his childhood before you start trying to recruit more Mages.", teased Halduron Brightwing
"I apologize for inturrupting my lords but I think our little prince would do good with a nights rest." Zaedana excused herself and carried Naruto to a prepared bedroom for him.
"When you wake up little one you'll meet your caretaker! I think she has a daughter around your age as well." she smiled as Naruto almost immediately settled into the large bed that was his in his room. With a last smile Zaedana lit the candelabra in the room and shut the door letting the prince rest.
Naruto gazed in wonder as he was led by the platinum blond mage trainer Zaedana through a tour of Silvermoon City. The young Blood Elf prince marveled at the Blood Knights and Rangers in Farstrider Square, tried to decipher the auctioneer's speak in the Royal exchange, and shivered at the encompassing darkness of Murder Row.
Looking down at her prince Zaedana tapped his shoulder, drawing his attention away from a blood elf girl chasing after a miniature arcane guardian.
"Did you enjoy the tour little prince?"
"Everythings so...so...so NEAT!" exclaimed Naruto as he ran around her and pointed at various people going about their activities. Zaedana smiled and knelt down and wiped away a scuff of dirt that was on Naruto's face while he fidgeted.
"Well I'm sure you'll get to see more of the city soon, but now we have to meet some very special people okay?"
"Who are we gonna meet?" asked Naruto as he took his guides hand once more and began the walk back to the Sunfury Spire.
"We are going to go meet the people that will look after you while your here. I hear she has a very nice daughter thats a little older then you are."
Naruto blanched and stuck his tounge out. "Girls have cooties!"
Zaedana chuckled as the duo passed the twin rows of Spellbreakers outside of Sunfury Spire and directed herself and Naruto to his bed chambers where they spotted 2 people waiting for them.
One Naruto noticed was a pretty lady with long brown hair that ended just above her waist. Her glowing green eyes he noticed held a kind of warmth that he was just not used to. The other person standing next to the lady was a girl, maybe a few years older then him judging by her height. She had her hair Auburn hair tied in a single ponytail on the side of her head.
"Oh! There they are! 'Ris! Telina!" Zaedana called. The older of the two Zaedana called to looked up, smiled and jogged to Zaedana and the two embraced. The girl followed at a more sedate pace and shook her head at the antics.
"Oh, its WONDERFUL to see you again 'Ris!"
"Yes its been much to long 'Dana. We should go out and chat sometime perhaps?"
"Yes we should really catch up sometime, but i'm here on buisiness im afraid. Naruto...this is Avaris, and her daughter Telina." Zaedana informed Naruto With a grin.
"Ahhhh yes...the young prince has been found. This Is him I take It?" Questioned Avaris. "He's a bit short...and could do with a few good meals..." she said while observing Naruto.
"I'm not short! Your just tall!" Huffed Naruto as he crossed his arms over his chest and puffed up indignantly.
Rolling her eyes Telina couldn't stay quite any longer. "Mom why do you have to watch this short nit wit? I could be looking for someone to apprentice under!"
"Who are you calling short!?" exclaimed Naruto as he pointed an accusing finger at his newly dubbed nemesis.
"You, shorty." replied Telina as she rested her elbow on his head.
Naruto now completely red in the face knocked her arm off of him and resumed his pointing. "And just who are you!?"
Snorting his nemesis replied. "Like I'd tell a midget."
"Well i don't wanna know who you are anyway you...you...you uncute tomboy!"
It was at this point that our prince realized his mistake when he noticed her face turning flushed, hands balling into fists, and her breathing turning short and shallow
"What. Did. You. Call me?" Ground out Telina.
"Uhhh...nothingbyenow!" Said Naruto as he took off through Murder Row to escape his pursuer, as she took chase.
A grinning Zaedana turned to Avaris and wrapped an arm around her shoulder as they both set off to catch the two children.
"I think they are going to get along just great, don't you?"
Kael'thas Sunstrider, Ruler of the Blood elves, sat heavily in his chambers within Tempest Keep. Hands steepled In front of him, his face brushing against the cool metal of his gauntlets as he sat In silent contemplation of the recent changes his life had taken. The escape of the prisoners of Arcatraz, The Scryer's and their constant shut down of the Mana Forges, and the constant threat of either Illidan or Sargeras learning of his...displeasure with the deals that had been made.
'The taint of our addiction It's...growing. Already my people are mutating.' Burying his head into his hands Kael shook his head at the thought of his failure to his people.
'No! We are Blood Elves, we WILL persevere!' With new conviction Kael rose to his feet and paced around his sanctum while thinking of a way to get out of the deal he made with the dark titan Sargears.
'Blast It all! Why was I ever so foolish as to pledge my people to that fool Illidan! We would have been better off fighting the addiction and the Scrouge on Azeroth.' Kael growled as the memory of him swearing fealty to Illidan flashed through his mind.
But just as Kael's anger grew to the point where he thought he would lose control...the face of his son came to the forefront of his mind and the anger fled his body and a sad smile adorned his face.
'Would you be...ashamed of our people Naruto, would you be ashamed of...me?'
"Is there something the matter Kael?" Asked a hushed voice from a shadowed corner. Kael whirled around to see the horned had of Illidan Stormrage The Betrayer, Master of the Black Temple and Ruler of Outlands.
With soft 'Clops' Illidan walked around the Blood Elf rulers chambers.
"You seem troubled Kael...do you wish to discuss It with me?"
"It Is nothing my lord just the recent set backs at the Mana forges."
"Hmm...yes that Is troubling...although, It might have been more to do with your recent trip away from Tempest keep?" Questioned Illidan as he Idly toyed with a trinket on Kael's desk.
"The trip was nothing more then a excursion to Silvermoon to Inform Lor'themar of recent updates.
"Would not a simple messenger be sufficient for such an activity?" Asked the Night Elf turned demon.
"Appearances must be kept up my lord. If the people do not see their king they may loose faith." Growled Kael.
"...Alright Kael...I believe you," Spoke Illidan as he made his way to the exit. "But remember where your loyalties lie Kael..."
Glaring at the retreating back of his supposed lord, Kael went back to his desk and resumed his thinking pose.
"I do Illidan...I do, they lie with my people...and my son." He whispered to himself.
Kael sat at his desk mulling over idea's and plans that could break ties with both the Burning Legion and Illidan Stormrage for good. He sat for what seemed like hours but was truly only minutes before inspiration struck. Summoning Master Engineer Telonicus to his chambers he said but one sentence...
"I want you to study the energy of the Nine Tailed Demon Fox sealed inside my son..."
A/N. This is the start of the Silvermoon City arc. So that means Naruto will start learning about the basics of being a blood elf and get his gear. I've already decided Naruto will be an Alchemist/herbologist. Telina will also have a class; im currently leaning towards paladin or priest with more towards priest at the moment.
Fixed some minor grammatical and spelling errors.
