Chapter 1
Naruto was positive he would pass his next try at the exam, he had already tried two times before but was failed every time. However this year there was a difference in the year. Sure he had taken the tests early but he knew he should have passed so he hoped this year would be different and it seemed Kami was listening to him this time as there was a new class field trip to a village called magnolia on the next continent and the Hokage was letting him go. So he was hoping that he would learn something that could help him pass on their trip due to the fact that as soon as they got back they would be taking their exams.
Time skip
Naruto had gotten separated from his class and was now walking through magnolia when his stomach growled. Holding his stomach in pain as the teachers hadn't given him any food during the trip and Iruka hadn't come as the Hokage had given him a special task during the week his class left. So in pain Naruto let himself slip into his mindscape
In Naruto's head
Naruto soon walked through a forest that was his mind until he came upon a clearing and with a small log cabin. Walking in through front door Naruto left his sandals by the door of the small entryway to the cabin. After that, he ran down the hallway and took the first left he could and after a few more steps he came face to face with a door Naruto opened it and ran and jumped on the bed like a five-year-old instead of a fourteen-year-old.
"Uh! Naruto how many times have I told you not to do that" a melodious voice asked as a red headed woman sat up in her bed.
"Sorry Kaa-san, but you never wake up if I don't" Naruto retorted.
"What do you need," the woman said as she quickly changed the subject
"Well I'm hungry, can you sniff out a place I can eat" the goofy teen asked
Sighing the woman paused as she inhaled deeply.
"Turn right and go straight, that's the closest place that will have food and had a good aura around it as well"
"Thanks, Kaa-san" Naruto said as he hugged the woman before returning to the real world.
"Well looks like I'm up for today," the woman said as she got up and did her waking routine.
Outside
Naruto smiled as he turned and walked down an alleyway until he hit a dead end. He new ninjas could walk on walls and what not but hadn't been taught how yet. Thankfully the alleyway walls were close enough he could jump his way to the roofs and hop from building to building until he got to the place.
Once Naruto got to the area he walked in only to find the people inside were fighting and destroying everything in sight.
"what can we do for you, my boy," a short old man said to Naruto as everyone froze and took in Naruto's appearance having somehow heard the old man and instantly focused on the stranger in a kill me now orange and white jumpsuit
"I …" Naruto said as his stomach cut him off demanding food loudly as he doubled over and held it in pain.
The trip had taken close to two months, normal this would kill someone in half that time but when Naruto told his mother that they weren't feeding him on the trip she infused every fat cell in his body with her chakra and made it grow until Naruto looked like the Pillsbury dough boy. However do to Naruto already being malnourished there wasn't much fat on his body. Thankfully there still was enough to make it so he didn't look like skin and bones when they finally got to where they were going to avoid looking like he was nothing but skin and bones.
"Ramen" Naruto groaned out just loudly enough that the short old man could hear him.
"Mira, get him some ramen now" Makarov ordered the 18-year-old barmaid as she rushed to do just that as Makarov carried Naruto over to the bar.
Soon Mira came back out with a bowl of ramen and set it before Naruto.
Smelling the scent hit his nose Naruto did his best to sit up and eat only to shock everyone as the bowl was empty almost instantly with Naruto holding the bowl out asking for more and the pained look on his face lessened ever so slightly. This went on as Mira soon found herself unable to keep up as other had to pitch in with running to the kitchen and back along with constantly cooking more. Thankfully Naruto soon was filed and had a content smile on his face as everyone finally was able to stop only to be shocked to see almost a Hundred big bowls of ramen stacked next to a hundred bowls if not more right next to Naruto.
"HE'S AS BAD AS CANA WITH HER BOOZE" the guild yelled
"Just how long has it been since you ate," Macao asked in shock getting a feeling it had been some time
"About two months," Naruto said plainly
"Who could you survive that long let alone why would you do that" Mira asked with a concerned voice only to notice the look she once held in her eyes before fairy tail flashed through Naruto's eyes before he had his mask back in place
"Well the boat I was on didn't have enough food like we thought and I got separated from everyone when I stumbled in here," Naruto said with a forced fox-like smile.
"Naruto-kun," a voice said as everyone instantly turned to see a purple haired woman that had a cat mask and was wearing weird black armor.
"Neko-nee-san," Naruto said as he hopped off the stool he was sitting on and ran up to the woman and gave her a hug.
As they pulled away from one another the cat Anbu pulled off her mask only to show tears streaming from her eyes.
"Naruto I need you to listen to me. The village isn't safe for you anymore, the council is planning something big and the Hokage doesn't know what to he made the temple trip up to get you out over the village. You have to stay here, these people can help you, they'll take care of you. Sarutobi has heard countless rumors about how strong these people are and how this place is meant for those that don't have anywhere else so he sent me to make sure you'd make it here. Please Naruto you can't come back to the village, those of us that do care would rather know you're safe then see you dead or worse" the woman said as her voice shook and tears poured from her eyes as she spoke, slowly getting worse until she finally pulled Naruto into a tight hug and continued to beg for him to agree
"Ok Nee-san, I'll stay here," Naruto said with a few tears escaping as he struggled for control over his emotions
"Thank you Naruto, oh I almost forgot. Sarutobi wanted me to give you this" the woman said as she gathered her emotions together once more and handed Naruto a scroll and quickly disappeared in a swirl of leaves knowing she had to get on her way back before she lost control over herself again.
Naruto stood there for a few minutes until he finally took a breath and looked at the scroll and unrolled it.
Letter
"Naruto I want you to know that I don't to this out of hate or anything else you may be thinking, I do this because I care for you but fear I can't protect you from this God-forsaken village anymore. The people that manipulated the village have gotten too good at hiding what they intended to do and I fear the worst.
As such, I arranged for you class to take a veiled trip to a place I have heard many wonderful things about. I believe these people can help you, but for that to happen you must understand where you are the people don't know what chakra is as they use a different thing I can't understand unless I were to visit them myself but as Hokage, I can't be gone the time it takes to get there. I also understand that there is no war in the new place you will now call home so you will be safe I'm sure.
Now before I end my letter i have something very important to tell you. I also want you to know I didn't tell you this as I wanted to protect you. Though now I see it did little to do so as you faced the same level of danger if not more so from those you were trying to learn to protect. Now you will want to sit for this, the lesson you learned in the academy about the fourth Hokage killing the Kyuubi is true to an extent. However there is far more to what happened then what you have been told, but for you to understand what happened I must start before the attack.
Your parents loved you so much you couldn't fathom how much they care for you, I remember when your mother, Kushina Uzumaki, gathered Tsunade, Jiraiya, and myself to tell your father, Minato Namikaze, that they would be becoming a family. When he came home and she told in the only way she could, by saying was going to be a mother. being the smart man he was and knowing your mother as well as he did it was easy for him to put the pieces together. Once he had done so he replied that he was going to be a father. This when back and forth several times with them getting more excited every time until Minato passed out in complete shock.
After that, the next nine months were hell for you father. Oh and that reminds me should you ever have a daughter when she eventually tells you she will be having a baby you MUST warn her husband that they need to brace themselves for a hell beyond imagining. Trust me I had to have Inoichi remove every memory I had in regards to how she was behaving due to simply how terrifying it was.
Yet when they were ready to have you, you were late by three months and on the night that your mother went into labor it was the happiest night of your parent's lives. Until that bastard showed up.
Not but five minutes after you were born an unknown enemy attack the location we were at and took you as a hostage to get your mother. Tossing you into the air forced your father to save you and give the man the opening he needed to take your mother and vanish. After you were safe your father raced after them but got there too late as the man had pulled the Kyuubi out and somehow ended up controlling it into attacking the village. Once your father got your mother to safety he severed the man's control over the Kyuubi and chased him away. He was then forced to use you as the Jinchūriki of the Kyuubi to save the village and give you the power needed to beat the man that started all of this as your father was sure he would return some day.
Yet even with that, there was no way your father was going to let that demon terrorize you so he did the only thing he could and had the shinigami remove the Kyuubi's mind of everything but how to move and every word it knew. Basically turning the Kyuubi's mind to that of a child that had just learned to talk and everything that requires movement or training. He also took ¼ of the Kyuubi's power as he wasn't certain your body could hold all of that chakra. He then sealed the rest into you.
Sadly your mother died from chakra exhaustion of having a child, getting the Kyuubi pulled out of her, and then having to use every last bit of her strength to hold the beast in place long enough for your father to perform the reaper death seal which in turn killed him as well. Your father and mother loved you very much, sadly fate is cruel and they never were allowed to raise you as they so wished.
Now, this is the last thing before I wish you luck. At the end of this scroll is a scroll holding everything your parents ever owned from their techniques carefully whiten into multiple scrolls to every worldly thing they had including their entire clan compound. You father was a genius when it came to seals much like your mother. However, for the unsealing of your new compound, you will need clear space of roughly 100 acres as the compound was on top of a hill with a large forest and a rather large lake. Oh, and when you unseal the house you should also know that there were multiple animals that live in that forest and do to how the Jutsu works they will be alive and well as I only sealed the compound away after I realized I needed to get your of the village.
Sadly this is all I can tell you. I am so sorry and hope you can forgive me for this one day. Please take care and know I will always see you as my hyperactive, stubborn, pranking king from hell, and beloved grandson even if we don't share blood. Please stay safe and live YOUR life"
Letter end
Once Naruto read the letter Naruto set it on a table and walked over to the closest pillar and drove his fists into it over and over again as he infused his muscles with chakra to increase the strength of his punches and yelled
"DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT, DAMMIT, WHY THE HELL DOES IT ALWAYS HAVE TO BE MY LIFE THAT GETS FUCKED WITH!? WHY DOES IT HAVE TO ME THAT GETS THE RAW DEAL WHEN SHIT HAS TO HIT THE FAN. SO WHAT IF SASUKE'S BROTHER MURDERED HIS ENTIRE CLAN IN ONE KNIGHT! HE HAD THE ENTIRE FUCKING VILLAGE THINKING HIS SHIT WAS A GIFT FROM KAMI AND HE DIDN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT ANYONE! HE HAD EVERY GIRL IN THE VILLAGE WILLING TO BEND OVER AND FUCK THEM AS IF THAT WAS NORMAL ALL BECAUSE HE WAS THE UCHIHA SURVIVOR! HE DIDN'T HAVE TO WORK FOR A DAMN THING! ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS ASK AND THEY GAVE IT TO HIM! I WOULD HAVE WILLINGLY LET SOMEONE KILL ME IF I COULD HAVE JUST HAD FIVE MINUTES WORTH OF FAMILY MEMORIES! SO WHAT IF I HOLD THE KYUUBI IN MY GUT? I DIDN'T CHOOSE TO HAVE THAT FORCED ON ME, I DIDN'T ATTACK THE DAMN VILLAGE YET NOOOO THEY DIDN'T CARE! THEY STILL MADE MOBS, THEY STILL TREATED ME LIKE A WILD ANIMAL, AND THEY STILL BEAT ME UNTIL I WAS ON DEATH'S DOOR STEP TIME AND FUCK TIME AGAIN! SO WHAT IF EVERY TEACHER I EVER HAD DID NOTHING BUT SABITOSHING ME LEARNING HOW TO BECOME A SHINOBI SO I COULD FINALLY GET SOME RESPECT! I WAS THE ONE THAT TAUGHT MYSELF HOW TO READ, COOK, BATHE, DO MATH, AND EVERYTHING ELSE I NEEDED TO EVEN LIVE!" Naruto yelled forgetting that others could see and hear him without his happy go lucky, nothing in the world could possibly go wrong mask.
Meanwhile, the guild watched on in horror as the could see skin and muscle being ripped away from his bones with every punch and heard more of the hell Naruto had been living in.
Soon Naruto's anger was spent as he collapsed to his knees with his for forearms against the pillar and head hung crying tears of pure pain.
Yet Naruto wasn't allowed to stay in that position long as Mira was now behind him turning him around and pulling him into a hug. At first, the sudden action had surprised him and made him tense up only to melt into Mira's hold.
"Sleep well Naruto" Mira's whispered as his sobs slowly dropped.
"Master why would people do that" Natsu asked as he looks crossed between waiting to puke and violent rage wanting to explode.
"I don't know Natsu, but it doesn't surprise me given the rumors I have heard about how things work in the elemental nations. From what I hear there are 9 demons over there with each being stronger than the one before it. The last one, the nine tails, is said to have enough strength to rival that of the Dragon of Apocalypse, Acnologia. The very Dragon responsible for the end of the Dragon human war as he isn't started to slaughter every living thing in sight. However, if answers are what we want I believe this may give us some" Makarov said as he went to pick up Naruto's scroll when it was snatched by an enraged Mira.
"This. Isn't. Ours. We will just have to wait for Naruto to see we aren't like those who hurt him and wait for him to open up to us about it" Mira said in a tone that left no room for argument
"Then I hope you're willing to go on jobs again as I'm putting you in charge of that" Makarov said simply "and you can't do that if you don't go with as the boy will need to have some sort of income" Makarov said aloud making Mira's already stiff body stiffen further.
Makarov knew this was a low blow as it had only been six months from the next to disastrous S-class job where they almost lost Lisanna if it hadn't been for Natsu following after having a gut feeling something bad was going to happen. That feeling was proven right and got Natsu a massive scar running along his chest that he had to seal up after he got it and proceed to beat Elfman until he blacked out. After which Natsu and Lisanna had to carry Elfman and Mira back. The experience had rattled that she subconsciously sealed away most of her magic.
"Fine, put me back on the guilds list of active Mages," Mira said through gritted teeth making every get the shock of a lifetime and Makarov to mentally cursed as he was hoping she would!d back down
"But Mira-nee, you hardly have any magic left" Lisanna called out in worry
"That doesn't matter, I'll make sure he takes jobs that I can act as an advisor and make sure he's not getting into anything too deep. If not I'll put a job request for him specifically to be my bodyguard on my photo shoots. Besides, I out of everyone here have the best idea as to what he went through so I have to help him" Mira said as her last sentence was almost lost to the guild but her siblings were instantly understanding what she meant.
"Then we're helping," Lisanna and Elfman said as they shocked their big sister and Elfman for once not yelling about being manly
"Don't think I'm letting Lisanna out over my sight after what happened," Natsu challenged with a goofy grin as an Aye was heard from happy and getting a smile as Mira had Elfman pick up Naruto and the small group walked out of the guild.
With the group
Currently, the small group was in the Take-over sibling's house when Naruto woke up. As Naruto woke up he found himself in a white room but it wasn't a hospital as Naruto noticed the bed was actually comfortable. Once he sat up he noticed that the room wasn't just white but also looked like someone had set off a pink explosive tag filled with pink pants. The only thing Naruto could think this room was, was the very definition of a girly girl's room
"Oh good you're awake you had me worried," a voice said catching Naruto's attention
"Where am I, who are you," Naruto asked quickly on guard
"Relax Naruto-kun, I'm not here to hurt you. Right now you're in the house my siblings and I have been renting, more specifically my room. The guild was getting a little too nosy for their own good so I brought you here so I treat your wounds and see if I could help you without the guild butting in" Mira said in a caring tone
"And just how could you do that" Naruto said As his hair covered his eyes
"Because I have had the same happen to me. It might not have been as bad but it was still the same" Mira said as she started to slowly start to bandage up each of his fingers and knuckles careful to make sure he could still move them.
"When I was around ten the town I lived in came under the attack of a demon. It locked itself in our church and nearly anyone that tried to get rid of it was nearly killed. Each time a group went in they all came back out on death's doorstep. It hurt to see the people who had done so much for my siblings and me after our parents passed that my siblings and I snuck into the church one night prepared to give our love to kill the demon if it meant saving our town. But the second I touched it, it glowed a bright yellow before the glow spread to me and my siblings had to look away. When the glowing stopped my entire left forearm looked demonic and the demon had vanished.
It was after that, that the town's cruel treatment of me began. If it wasn't for my siblings I would have been driven insane. It didn't last long as we all agreed to leave and soon we came to Fairy Tail and the master heard what happened and told me I had used magic called take over which let me pull the demon into me and absorb it so I could use its powers and simultaneously killing the demon. After my siblings convinced me to stay and I found a family and friends in the guild" Mira explained as she finished tending to Naruto's injuries.
Yet she was surprised when she felt Naruto wipe the tears on her face away finally making her realize that she had been crying as she talked.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you remember such painful memories. So please, don't cry" Naruto said as a radiant smile spread on her face
Please remember to review
