Deep in the spirit world, a fox was walking through his domain, as he did he looked at all the young kits frolicking in the many gardens that surrounded his palace. The fox had golden fur and nine tails, his eyed were a shade of deep blue. He had an aura of peace and tranquility which was different from his nature. He was the new Kyuubi and Lord of the element of Fire. He was currently going to met with the other elemental Lords to discuss the situation in the mortal world. He chuckled as he saw one the kits pounce on one of the other only to be kicked into a pond.
He finally made his way to the grand hall of his palace, as he walked he saw that his guards were bowing to him, many of the female guards had looks of lust in their eyes as he was yet to be mated and wanted a chance to mate with him. They knew that he would only mate with someone who was strong so that way she could bare him a strong kit. Which was why their military was mostly female, he was alpha and females always followed the alpha.
After reaching the meeting hall he was greeted by the other three Lords. Haku the ice dragon, Mistress of Water. Though friends in their previous lives and lovers at one time, now they were on opposing ends of the spectrum, one could say they are enemies, but they were actually on friendly terms because of their pasts though they still fought in many wars with each other. The other was Gaara the raccoon dog Master of the Wind and Air, ally to the Lord of Fire. Their friendship had passed through many lifetimes and battles and still to this day held strong. Wind and Fire had always complimented each others since the creation of time. Finally was Lee the stone dragon Lord of Earth, he was the ally to Haku as their elements could make nature.
"Greeting Lord Naruto how was your morning walk I hope everything is well?" asked Haku who was sporting a faint blush on her face. Even if they were technically enemies she could not forget the love she had for him in her previous six lives she had lived, though the last one she almost came close as Naruto had almost killed her on a bridge. Even if had been almost seven hundred years since it happened she was still a little pissed about it.
"Everything was nice, saw some of the kits playing in the gardens, it was quite entertaining." Naruto said with a chuckle. He had risen to power almost five thousand years ago when the Old Kyuubi had went corrupt and greedy, he had came from a warrior clan and was trained in art of battle. In those time only the strongest could control the element of fire. Naruto at a young age had always played with it until one day the Kyuubi saw him controlling the black flames of the underworld something he himself still could not do. Becoming deeply angered and threaten by this fact he went to kill young Naruto. Naruto being trained had sensed that he was going to be attacked jumped out of the way when a fire ball smashed into the ground. Confused as to who had attacked him Naruto looked around only to find his Lord snarling at him. He quickly put two and two together and got into a defensive stance. By that time the whole village had found out that their king was in a battle with a kit no older than 500, (12 human years) the battle had lasted a good twenty minutes before Naruto had came out on top, by using the black flames. He was immediately crowned the new King and had ruled since then.
"Thats good to hear, I too saw some of the young ones playing the other day. I must say your realm is quite peaceful and beautiful. IT JUST SHINES WITH THE FLAMES OF YOUTH!" yelled Lee as everyone cringed at volume of his voice. Lee was always the eccentric one of the four. He even placed a curse on the mortal plane by spreading his ideals of the power of youth. It was always a different element in every lifetime but was still the same disturbing principle. One time it was the Spring Fountain of Youth, and then their was the Mountain of Youthfulness, another was the Hurricane of Youth, and his personal favorite maybe to piss off Naruto was the Flames of Youth. The mess up thing was that in every lifetime there was always a devote follower in these teaching, and they had a fascination with the color green and big eyebrows. All the other Lords felt sorry for the mortal realm.
"Seriously Naruto why haven't you killed him and his follower in the last life, it was just that one guy, it would have been the end of that curse and they would have made you a God." Gaara dryly said as he tried to look away from the Stone Dragon. Gaara had aways been the social outcast of the group. His nature was like the element that he ruled over, free and wild. Every time he ventured into the mortal plane for their regular hundred year patrol he was always alone and often feared. His last trip he had become a psychopath loner who spent almost a century spreading death and destruction. It was necessary because as too many people were getting to much control of the elements and was shifting the natural balance of the world towards chaos.
It was the mission of the four element Lords to keep the balance, when all four lords go into the mortal plane a great War is bound to happen. The last one was when they declared war on the elemental countries, in that war the world was forever changed. Almost all of the elemental users where wiped out. The ones that survived where so damaged that they could only control one element. As the Lords left the mortal plane they limited the abilities of "Chakra" which was the source of power that the people used to only one element per person. Everyone was aligned to one of the four, but only a select few had the ability to control their element and they were called benders. One last act was to combine all their elemental energies into one being, he or she would be the speaker of the Lords in the mortal plane. They were to be called the Avatar master of all the elements. And for the next two thousand years the mortal plane had been at peace that the Lords slipped into stories of old and folklore.
"You know I can't do that, unfortunately. Though the curse has lifted being that since Lee here hasn't been in the mortal realm for two thousand years his teaching has vanished from the World." Naruto said as everyone sighed.
"Yeah but what about us?" Haku said with tears running down her cheeks. When that statement was heard Gaara and Naruto looked at Lee would was running around the room yelling "YOUTH" and started to cry.
Feeling that the meeting was getting off track Naruto decided it was time to speak the issues they had. "Ok all kidding aside its time for our centennial meeting, I will start. I would like to announce that our lands have been well on track to repairing themselves since the last war we had." he said as he glared at Haku who only stuck out her tongue at him. She had went to war with him when they got back to the spirit realm because he had a fling with a couple of the mortal women, though no children were conceived it still hurt her, also for the fact that he let a mortal man touch her chest with a electric attack didn't help either. "Our people are now living in a state of peace and prosperity." Naruto finished.
"In the my realm everything is as it should be I have decided that it is time to lift the embargo to the realm of Water and Rock, if you want we can opened the trade routes once again." Gaara said in a bored tone. "That is all, I will send a messenger with the contracts very soon."
"That would great, I am please as I missed the Sake that your realm is famous for." Haku said with a big smile on her face. "I will wait for the contract soon, when you do send him send a bottle my way." she finished with a wink. This cause all the other Lords to shudder, last time she had sake she nearly engulfed to world with water.
"Ssure Haku but please don't over do it, I don't think the world could handle another flood." Gaara said to a pouting Haku.
Lee only stated that everything was doing fine in his realm. Once they had finished their report it was time to find out what was happening in the mortal realm. Gaara was calling for his avatar as it was his people that he was born into. After finding that his Avatar was not coming he knew that something had happened so Naruto called the previous that was living in his realm. Roku came running to his master call. After telling them that the Avatar was born into the air nomads everyone was getting concerned. Something had happen to the Avatar and the loop was in danger. They decided that Naruto had to go into the mortal realm and find out what had happen to the air nomads. So with everyone in agreement and a warning from Haku about being with mortal woman again he transported to the mortal realm.
