Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Soul Eater
A blade emerging from the Mist.
Serpent slithering from the treetops.
A crow flying through the thunderstorm.
Flames being fanned through the ruined buildings.
The moon shattered and falling to the Earth.
Naruto groaned as he blinked sleep away from his eyes. Bright lights blinded him as a figure leaned over him. The figure's glasses shone and a toothy smile leaned closer towards him.
"Ah, he's awake. Note to self. Use a larger quantity of a more potent anesthesia as subject's body is able to metabolize current anesthesia quantity. However, dissection complete and tissue samples removed successfully."
"GODDAMNIT STEIN! NOT AGAIN!"
Naruto leaped off the dissection table and his hands immediately covered his private parts. His eye twitched as he felt yet another stitching on his body. Naruto looked down and saw a long stitch stretching from his left side to his navel. Naruto traced the wound with his hand in a mixture of astonishment, amazement, and anger.
"What did you take out now?" Naruto asked.
"Hmm, while I did not achieve all of my objections, I did remove your kidney and extracted several pints of blood," Stein replied nonchalantly.
"How much of me have you removed?" Naruto asked warily, not really wanting to know the answer.
Stein grinned and walked over to a cabinet. He opened the cabinet to reveal a fridge. Before Naruto's eyes, Stein opened the fridge to reveal several shelves filled with jars containing different organs and pieces of flesh suspending in liquid. Naruto's eye twitched rapidly as he saw all the jars labeled with his name. Stein pulled a clipboard and began to list his dissection samples.
"One complete lung, two hearts, a tongue, four kidneys, five livers, several quarts of blood, multiple complete marrow samples, twenty-one hundred grams of muscle sample, and forty-seven square inches of skin."
"STEEEIN!" Naruto howled. Before Stein could react, Naruto slammed a chakra-infused fist into the mad scientist's face, sending him flying through an open window.
"No wonder Spirit-san is so scared of sleeping around Stein. I wonder if he removed part of his brain? It would explain his unhealthy obsession with Maka," Naruto muttered. "Still I can't blame him. He's trying to be a parent at the very least."
Naruto looked around and to his relief, spotted his gear sitting on a table nearby. While he pulled on his clothes, a pair of arms draped around his neck. Naruto smiled and gently clenched one of the hands before turning around.
"Hey Miyako-chan, how'd you sleep?"
"Better than you apparently, Naruto-kun."
Naruto smiled. Miyako was a beautiful, silver-haired woman a head shorter than Naruto. Whenever she was around, Naruto could not help but be reminded of the moon. Ironic considering she was once the Juubi and was sealed inside the moon. Graceful, pure, and flawless, she was so beautiful that everyone stopped when she entered the room. However a frown marred her face when she saw Naruto's smile.
"You had that dream again, didn't you?" Miyako asked softly. Naruto nodded.
"I dreamed about my past again," Naruto whispered. "Just flashes, nothing clear."
Miyako smiled gently. "It's been thousands of years since then Naruto-kun. You saved the world from utter destruction and released me from a madman's control. Enjoy this life now Naruto. A world where you are freed from all the hate and violence from your time."
Naruto hugged Miyako gratefully. "I will Miyako-chan. So don't worry about me."
"I will, because I'm your wife. And that's what wives do," Miyako replied cheerily. "Now get ready, Shinigami-sama wants to see you today."
"Hai, Miyako-chan."
"Ah! Naruto-chan! Miyako-chan! Thank you for coming."
Naruto smirked. "You know I'm older than you, right Shinigami-san?"
"Ah! I forget."
SHINIGAMI CHOP!
"You still owe me for the ramen bill you left back in Hokkaido. Next time you do that, I'll give you the Shinigami Chop on your head."
Naruto rubbed his smarting head. "Next time, warn me before you hit me!"
Miyako cradled Naruto's head in her bosom. "Now, now Naruto. It's alright."
"Anyway as I was saying-," the Shinigami said before he was interrupted.
"MAAAAAAAAAAAAKAAAAAAAAAA! PAPA LOVES YOU AND MAMA! IT'S TRUUUE!"
Shinigami, Naruto, and Miyako turned around to see Spirit running towards them, anime tears streaming out of his eyes. Spirit tripped on the ground and began to roll about weeping and blubbering his eyes out. The other three sweat dropped at the poor, pathetic man.
"As I was saying, Naruto-chan, I would like you to do me a favor," Shinigami said.
"What's the favor?"
"I'd like to you to take over Sid-sensei's class for a bit," Shinigami said. "He'll be out as I will be assigning him missions for his skill set."
"And why not Spirit or Stein?" Miyako asked gently.
"Good question Miyako-chan," Shinigami answered. "Well for Stein, he burned through our budget for his numerous dissection subjects, including one protected species. As for Spirit, well..."
"MAAAAAAAAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
"I see what you mean," Naruto said.
Within Death City, the great DMW Academy stood proud and tall overlooking the city. It is there that the next generation of weapon meisters and Demon Weapons. Currently the latest class of weapon meisters and Death Weapons were waiting for their class.
"Hey Maka did you hear the news?" Soul asked his partner. Maka looked up from her book.
"What news?" Maka asked.
"Apparently we have a new teacher while Sid-sensei's out," Soul replied. "Some guy named Naruto."
"Hm, never heard of him," Maka muttered.
The door banged open to reveal Black Star and his partner, Tsubaki. Maka tuned out Black Star as Black Star began boasting loudly about how he was the best and how he was going to surpass everyone. Maka felt sympathy to the kind-hearted girl that was partnered with Black Star. It must be extremely difficult for Tsubaki to deal with the loud and excitable meister.
"Black Star, please calm down. It's only class time," Tsubaki said softly.
"WHY SHOULD I? THEY SHOULD BE HONORED TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF A GOD!"
Maka sighed as Black Star started on another grandiose rant. She heard someone sit near her and turned to see Kid and his partners, Liz and Patty. Patty waved happily at her and Soul while Kid nodded to her.
"Morning Maka. Morning Soul," Kid said simply. "It's a beautiful day, isn't it?"
"Why?" Soul asked. Liz sighed.
"We were nearly late because there a new street market opened and all the stands were completely symmetrical on both sides. Fruit stands facing fruits, meat stands facing meat, etc," Liz explained.
"It was BEAUTIFUL!" Kid cried happily. Liz, Maka, and Soul sweat dropped while Patty laughed and clapped her hands.
"So Kid, did you hear about the new teacher?" Soul asked. Kid nodded.
"Apparently he's one of Chicue's old friends," Kid explained. "Naruto-sama and his wife Miyako-sama worked alongside Chichue during the wars with the witches."
"Wow, he must be quite the meister," Maka said. "I can't wait to learn from him."
"What about Miyako?" Soul asked. "Is she a Demon Weapon?"
"Yes she is. She's one of the most powerful Death Scythes ever but she has only partnered with Naruto," Kid explained. "Even your father, Spirit, pales in comparison to Miyako-sama."
"Really?" Soul asked, interested. "Looks like we're getting some good teachers."
Before Kid could reply, kabuki music filled the air. All the students quieted as the kabuki music became louder and sakura petals began to float down all over the class room.
"STORMS STOP AT THE SIGHT OF ME! ENEMIES TREMBLE AND WEEP JUST AT THE MERE MENTION OF MY NAME! BABES STOP CRYING WHILE WOMEN SWOON AT MY PRESENCE! PREPARE FOR THE COMING, THE ARRIVAL, THE ENTRANCE OF THE GREAT, THE BRAVE, THE MIGHTY, THE EVER-HANDSOME NARUTO-SAMA!"
With a cloud of smoke, Naruto appeared on the top of the teacher's desk in a ridiculous pose, standing on one leg. He was about six feet tall, had spiky blond hair with a black strip of cloth over his left eye. He wore a blue vest over a dark orange muscle shirt and black pants. He had tattoos on the upper part of his arms, steel covered boots while his arms and hands were protected by bracers and steel-backed fingerless gloves. His most noticeable feature were the birthmarks on his face.
Naruto waved his arms as he felt his balance begin to waver because appeared on top of an apple that Maka had left for the teacher. The apple rolled due to Naruto's weight and he flipped in the air, landing on the desk, face-first. The students sweat dropped at their teacher.
"Are you sure this is the same guy you're talking about?" Soul asked. Kid nodded.
"I'm pretty sure," Kid muttered.
"Not exactly as impressive as you said Kid," Liz whispered.
"I like him, he's funny!" Patty piped in.
"Man, this teacher's great," Black Star whispered loudly. Tsubaki sighed.
"Because he did exactly as what you would have done," Tsubaki replied.
"Naruto-kun, did you do that stupid routine again?"
All the students turned to see a beautiful white-haired woman walk into the room. Immediately the majority of male students had hearts in their eyes while most of the girls either glared in envy or felt the harsh feelings of inadequacy.
The woman swept Naruto into her arms and began to stroke his hair. She was a head shorter than Naruto and her long hair flowed to the middle of her back. She was dressed in a sleeveless white blouse and simple but comfortable jeans. She wore boots that reached her knees and steel-backed gloves, much like Naruto.
"It's not a stupid routine, Miyako-chan!" Naruto cried. "Its the proud tradition of all Sages!"
"Oh just grow up, we're in the middle of a classroom," Miyako whispered. That only seemed to make Naruto cry louder.
"THE ACADEMY? NO IRUKA-SENSEI! NOT A PAPER TEST!"
The students sweat dropped as their new teacher continued crying tears.
"Seriously, this is our new teacher," Maka whispered. "He's like my father."
She shivered as she heard a faint cry in the air.
After a minute the two teachers stood side by side in front of the class. The woman smiled at the students, making many of the make students melt in happiness.
"Hello class, I am Miyako Namikaze and this is my husband, Naruto Namikaze. We'll be teaching you Advanced Combat and Strategy. While we will be teaching strategy together, during practice spars and practicals I will be teaching the Demon Weapons. My husband Naruto will be teaching Weapon Meisters."
"Yosha! You can count on the Great Toad Sennin, Naruto-sama!" Naruto said with a smile and a thumbs up.
Most of the meisters groaned while many of the weapons cheered. Naruto immediately crouched to the ground, drawing circles while depressed clouds floated over him.
"Anyway," Miyako continued. "We'll be splitting the class now. Naruto-kun, will you take the meisters out?"
"Hai, Miyako-chan," Naruto said. "Meisters please head to the practice field."
"Yes sensei."
The meisters walked out of the classroom and to the front of the DMW Academy. The students quickly gathered around in a circle while Naruto smiled at the group of students.
"Well now, I've heard from Shinigami-san that this class was one of the more promising classes of the DMW Academy."
Many of the students puffed up in pride at the compliment.
"Anyway, for today you will be graded based on a test," Naruto explained. "You will break off into teams and face me in a fight."
Naruto pulled out a scroll on his vest and opened it. Naruto placed his hands on the scroll and with a cloud of smoke, a large cabinet emerged. The cabinet opened to reveal a multitude of various weapons.
"I made sure to stock this cabinet with weapons much like your partners' forms," Naruto said. "Once you've gotten your weapon, gather your into your groups. I'll explain the next part of your test will be explained once you've gotten into your teams."
The meisters pulled out weapons from the cabinet. Maka pulled out a scythe and spun it experimentally, finding it similar to Soul's weapon form. Black Star pulled out a kusarigama while Kid found a pair of pistols. After a while the students gathered into their teams and waited for their teacher to start speaking.
"Now the test today will be me against a team. In order to pass the test, you must make me bleed," Naruto explained. The students gasped out in surprise. "If you do, you will pass. If you don't you fail. However only one can pass. The one who passes can choose between his or her two teammates who can pass. The one not chosen will not pass."
"But that's not fair!" Ox cried out. Naruto grinned wider.
"Well you're going to love this," Naruto said. "If you fail, you and your partner will be expelled out of DMW Academy."
"You can't do that!" Maka protested.
"Can't I?" Naruto asked. "Prove it to me."
"YOU BASTARD!"
"Wait Black Star!" Maka cried as Black Star charged. However before anyone could react, Naruto vanished and reappeared in front of Black Star. Naruto grabbed Black Star by the head and brutally slammed him into the ground, creating a crater. Naruto pulled Black Star out and tossed him at Kid. Kid and Black Star crashed into the ground. All the students stared at Naruto in horror while their sensei cracked his neck.
"Well Black Star, Kid, Maka, hurry up," Naruto said. "I can't wait!"
Kid helped Black Star to his feet. Black Star wobbled a bit and shook his head.
"What happened?" Black Star asked.
"You were knocked out, quite brutally I might add," Kid explained. "Naruto-sensei is much stronger that he appears. We'll have to work together to bring him down."
"But you heard what he said!" Maka cried. "The only one who is sure to pass will be the one who makes him bleed first!"
"She's right!" Black Star cried. "Everyone for themselves!"
"Wrong choice."
Black Star and Maka turned to see Naruto glaring at them. He grabbed Maka and tossed her high into the air. Naruto spun and kicked Black Star, sending him bouncing away. Naruto vanished again and was about to grab Maka when a hail of bullets flew his way. He vanished in a puff of smoke and appeared behind Kid. Kid spun around and aimed his guns at Naruto but Naruto was too fast. Naruto slapped Kid's hands to the side and kicked Kid in the chest. Kid gasped as he felt the air from his lungs pushed out by the kick. He was sent tumbling away while Maka finally hit the ground, hard. Naruto cracked his knuckled.
"Is that all you meisters have? I'm beginning to think that Shinigami-san has grown too soft."
"BIG STAR ELBOW!"
Naruto turned to see Black Star charge at him with his elbow out. Naruto caught the elbow, to Black Star's delight.
"BLACK STAR! GET AWAY!" Maka cried.
"What?"
Naruto grinned as he felt Black Star's wavelength clash against his own. Black Star was sent flying back, his elbow scorched and smoking. Black Star screamed in pain as he felt his soul wavelength surge in disarray.
"That was a good attack Black Star but my soul's frequency and amplitude are much more stronger and complex than yours," Naruto explained. "Even in my reduced state, such a headlong attack will not succeed."
Maka's eyes widened and she used her Soul Perception on Naruto. She gaped in horror at what she saw.
Naruto's soul was huge. Larger than any soul she had even seen, surrounding Naruto in a dark blue orb. The orb was nearly a hundred feet in diameter and covered in spectral black chains marked with tags. On the surface of the soul, Maka could see nine patterns racing across the soul, constantly moving and racing in different directions. Each of those patterns were a different animal. She could see a tanuki, cat, monkey, slug, beetle, and fox along with three other kinds of animals she could not identify. Stretching from the soul were ten tails that thrashed about and around the soul like a wild animal's tail. It was frightening sight to see and Maka was struck dumb at the sight of it.
Naruto grinned when he saw Maka's face.
"You can see it, can't you? My soul," Naruto hissed. "This is not even my true strength. I keep my soul sealed so as to prevent collateral damage."
Maka could only gape as Naruto moved closer towards her. When he was right on top of her, Naruto raised his leg high.
"Goodbye Maka!"
Naruto brought his heel down on Maka. A huge crash was heard and an enormous dust cloud filled the area. The students closed their eyes and mouths as a shock wave blew the dust everywhere. When the dust cleared, Maka hesitantly opened his eyes to see two people in front of her. Protecting her was Kid straining to block the leg while Black Star's weapon dug into Naruto's skin. Naruto chuckled as he felt blood dribble down his side. Naruto grabbed Black Star's weapon and pushed it away from him. He slowly backed away and crossed his arms in an amused smirk.
"Congratulations, Black Star you pass. Now choose. Who will pass? Maka or Kid?" Naruto asked.
Maka and Kid swallowed nervously at Black Star as he eyed the two of them. After a moment he turned towards Naruto, glaring at him.
"I won't choose!" Black Star stated. Naruto raised an eyebrow.
"What do you mean?"
"I won't choose!" Black Star repeated. "I'll drop out! Then Maka and Kid can continue at DMW!"
"You drop out," Naruto said slowly. "What about Tsubaki."
Black Star's eyes widened before drooping. "Can she stay? I mean, I'm not being expelled. Only dropped out."
"Black Star no!" Kid exclaimed. "I'll drop out! I don't need to go to DMW Academy. I'm a Shinigami. Chichue will allow Patty and Liz to stay."
Maka shook his head. "Let me drop out. My (swallow) dad can train me and Soul."
"So who will it be?" Naruto asked.
"None of us!" Maka, Black Star, and Kid said unanimously.
Naruto grinned widely.
"You all pass!"
"What?"
"You all pass," Naruto repeated. "You showed the necessary skill to survive excel outside of DMW, correct, but you showed me the most important tool needed to survive when victory seems impossible and death is the only option."
"You showed that you can fight and work together as a team," Naruto explained. "In this world those who break the law are scum but those that abandon their teammates are lower than scum."
Naruto smiled and turned away from the three of them. "As a reward, you three get full marks for today as well as Miyako-chan's next paper test."
As Naruto walked away to test the other students, the shock soon went away to feelings of relief. Black Star began to laugh loudly and collapsed to the ground. The laughter spread as Maka and Kid could not help but smile and laugh as well.
Once the session was over, the meisters came back to the classroom and walked back to their seats. The Demon Weapons could not help but stare as each of the meisters appeared to have gone through a war. Messed up hair, drenched in sweat, cuts, bruises, and busted noses were numerous. Maka sighed and laid her head down at her seat. Soul eyed her curiously.
"What happened?" Soul asked curiously.
"Naruto-sensei is an insane, cruel, sadist," Maka whispered tiredly.
Soul and the other Demon Weapons turned back at Naruto who was currently glaring at a container of cup ramen.
"Damn the three minutes! I can crush rocks with my bare hands, summon toads bigger than than mountains, and create armies with a hand seal but I can't get skip the three minutes it takes cup ramen to cook!" Naruto ranted angrily as he stared at the container.
The Demon Weapons stared at Naruto and back at their meisters.
"Are you sure?" Tsubaki asked, cautiously. "He doesn't seem to be the type."
"Trust me, he's a sadist."
"FINALLY!" Naruto cheered. However in his rush, he accidentally knocked over the container, sending the noodly-goodness all over the ground.
"MY RAMEN! NOOOOOOO!"
Everyone in the classroom sweat dropped as Naruto scrabbled at the ramen, crying fountains from his eyes, while Miyako prevented him from eating the ramen off the floor.
"Myhihihy ramen," Naruto sobbed.
This is a first chapter from a Naruto/Soul Eater Crossover. I won't be working on it a lot since my priority will be Bane of Bloodlines. If anyone wants to adopt this story, I'll hand over this story to them along with the list of ideas, plot lines, and beta read any future chapters the author makes.
Peace out, Oso1991
