Disclaimer: Me no own Naruto, or the summons herein.

A.N. It's something that's been done before a lot of times, and a summon type that's been done and re-done, but I thought I would toss the two together and try and put my own spin on them as one. The beginning of this and the second snippet will be the same, but going down 2 different paths. Here we go...

Naruto stared, wide eyed in surprise at the...the sheer crap he had just heard.

"Naruto?"

He just couldn't believe it, how could it be true? If it was true, why would they have just-

"Naruto, say something."

Naruto's heart raced as he lifted his eyes from the floor, looking at the smiling couple in front of him...

The fourth Hokage and his wife...claiming to be his parents...

"It's a lie," The young blond whispered, tears falling.

Not hearing him, Kushina misunderstood the boys tears and reached to hug him, "Oh, I'm so happy to see you again Naruto."

Naruto panicked, wrenching away from the redhead, "You're lying," he said, "Y-you can't be my parents, you're lying, YOU'RE LYING!" He turned and ran out the door of the Hokage's office.

"Naruto, wait!" Minato yelled, chasing the younger blond out the door, only to be stopped by a large cloud of smoke, a dozen Narutos jumping him while scores of others scattered in different directions, leaving the adults with no idea where the original was.

-

The real Naruto burst through his apartment door, locking it before he leaned back against it, sliding to the ground, shaking. He wanted to just sit there, but he needed someone to talk to, someone he could trust. Climbing to his feet, Naruto stumbled further into his little one room apartment, cutting his palm and running through the needed handsigns.

"Summoning Jutsu!"

"Naruto?" a surprised, female voice coughed as the smoke cleared, revealing...

...A Purple unicorn. Seeing her tearful friend, Twilight was ready when he all but tackled her, crying onto her shoulder. Seeing nothing else she could do until he calmed down, she softly patted the blond's back, whispering gently to the younger human.

"Twilight," Naruto said, not letting go.

"Yes, Naruto?"

"Take me home," Naruto said softly, "take me home with you, please."

Feeling the sheer sorrow rolling off her summoner, Twilight's horn glowed, a number of Naruto's things, clothes and a few other essentials, floated into a backpack that she grabbed in a fetlock as the pair disappeared in a flash of purple...

Leaving only a cloud of smoke to be found as Minato and Kushina burst through the door.

-

Her horn glowing, Twilight tucked the young human into bed, she would have chuckled at the sight of him clinging to Smarty Pants if things were less serious. Backing out of the room, she quietly closed the door, letting the boy sleep.

"Twilight," her assistant whispered, almost making her jump before she turned to him, "they're here."

"Thanks, Spike," Twilight sighed, descending the stairs to meet her five closest friends, after Spike. She quickly raised a hoof to her mouth, silencing questions before they started, "I'm sorry to call you here so late girls, but Naruto is sleeping, so try to keep quiet, it looks like he had a rough day."

"Did he flunk his test again?" Rainbow Dash asked, sounding hushed but angry, "C'mon, he had that ninja stuff down easy! I'll bet it was that stupid written history junk."

"I think it's something else, Rainbow Dash," Twilight said, "He seemed too sad, he kinda seemed...broken. he just cried and asked me to take him home and cried himself to sleep." She paused as she realized something, "Home...he called Ponyville home..."

The weight of this wasn't lost on any of those present. Naruto had been their summoner for a long while, and it had been a bit longer than that since he'd first appeared in their fair village, and as good of friends as he became with everypony, he was always proud of his village, claiming he would be the Hokage. Suddenly calling Ponyville seemed like Celestia herself moving to the Griffin Empire.

"Uh, the village was still there, right?" Dash asked, half seriously.

"Aw, hush Dashie, this serious," Applejack hushed her friend before turning to Twilight, "But, uh, it was still there, righ'?"

"Yes," Twilight sighed, "As far as I could see, nothing was destroyed, now can you be serious, Naruto needs our help."

"Indeed he does," a regal voice agreed, descending the stairs from the library living quarters, causing the girls to bow, "Rise, friends, we have things of great importance to discuss in reference to our summoner."

-

Minato and Kushina finally returned to the Hokage's Tower, having tracked down every clone, including the one that had popped in his apartment, they hadn't been able to find any others, let alone the original, so all they'd had left was Minato's predecessor.

"Hiruzen! Have you seen-" Minato and his wife were suddenly stopped by the sight that greeted them.

The Third Hokage sat at his desk as normal, with a large, dark colored horse standing across from him, a horse with wings and a horn whose mane looked like the gaseous form of the night sky, dotted with stars. Next to that, they barely noticed the smaller equine on either side, in armor with large, bat-like wings.

"We think, Sarutobi-dono, that you should teach your successors some manners," The larger horse said with a clipped tone, "Or perhaps be more careful in who you chose to grant such a responsibility to."

"Minato, Kushina," Sarutobi said, trying to diffuse a situation before it could start, "This is Luna-Hime, one of the rulers of Naruto's summon contract."

"N-Naruto has a summoning contract?" Kushina asked, completely surprised.

"Indeed," Luna nodded curtly before turning back to the elder Hokage, "As we were saying, we fear in his current state, Naruto will need some time to recover-"

"What!?" The parents yelled, "What happened to him."

Luna's eye twitched as she looked at the two, "We would think it's obvious, you happened," it was all her years of diplomacy that kept her from growling, "We care not for what reasons you may have had, but he was left in an environment where his very existence was, for the most part, ignored and denied, and now he finds that his very parents had left him all alone only to return after some great accomplishment, it's little wonder he hasn't had a major psychotic break, as it is, he is teetering on a very dangerous edge and needs to be with those of us he trusts completely, a quality of which most of this village finds itself sorely lacking in."

Turning back to the elder Hokage, her tone seemed more civil, "So, Naruto will be staying with his friends in Ponyville until we can be sure of his recovery from this ordeal. We apologize for the inconvenience, Sarutobi-Dono." Shooting a dirty look at the couple, Luna's mane grew, encompassing the trio of equines, all of them disappearing into the fog before it dispersed.

A.N. There it is, version one, the second one up next. Again, this is a set of plot bunnies, like the Hogwarts Rejection Letters and That Red Haired Clan (Which I should get back to), with this one based around Summons for the characters in Naruto (Usually Naruto himself). To hear more on my thoughts on this part, see the next part (Not all will be so...angsty?).
