Forgotten Myth
Author's note: After a two years break, I've decided to come back as a writer. I've kept watch on NarutoxFairyTail crossover all this time and I have to say that there aren't as many stories as there was back then. Which is why I've decided to come back to bring you this new story of mine. I hope you will enjoy this one!
Summary: Born as a demon, Naruto decides to travel around the land of Fiore to find out who he is and what the meaning of his life is. Fairy Tail Universe. NarutoxSayla Fanfic.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto and Fairy tail. Just this story.
Chapter 1- Enter the Demon
You were born to bring an end to this world, don't you ever forget that.
A voice rang in his mind. It is also at this very moment that he opened his eyes. He stirred up slightly as he got up from bed and headed straight toward a broken mirror. He looked at the reflecting image of himself. Of course, he was still the same.
A demon. What was he thinking?
He let out a sigh of relief as he made his way toward a box of ramen. "Looks like me I'm out." He murmured silently as he looked down at the empty box. It looks like he needed to go to the village again. "Guess I'm gonna have to steal… as always."
With that, he grabbed his black jacket and opened the door leading outside. His outfits consisted of a black uniform-style jacket with an orange zipper that features several buttons on the waist and sleeves, allowing him to fold up the left sleeve and rear coattails, giving him easy access to the pouches on the back of his belt. He also was wearing a red armband on his left arm. Lastly, he wore loose white pants tucked inside studded black boots.
He reached down his pocket, and pulled a white bandage. He quickly wrapped it around his blond hair, covering his forehead. Without wasting any more time, he rapidly jumped down from one tree to another. Once on the ground, he checked his surroundings to make sure none of the villagers were there. "Eh…" he smirked as he turned around. Three armed men were standing behind him. The sight made him chuckle a bit. They were pissing their pants and yet…
"What do you plan to do with these gardening tools?" He asked aloud in mocking manner.
"Don't take us lightly demon! We will have your head today!" one with enough guts replied.
How many times had he heard those words? A hundred? A thousand times? Or maybe his entire life?
"If I were you I wouldn't risk my life for that. Now, why don't you leave me alone." It was more a statement than a question. "You better leave before you get hurt." Uninterested, he gestured them to get lost.
"Like I said! Don't take-" they rushed forward but stop midway. "You!" one of the men fell flat on his rear in fear while the others stayed frozen. Not even a second later, something hit them. It was like a huge force of gravity applying on them. They couldn't breathe properly nor could they move at all. They were being crushed by his demonic aura.
Naruto grinned at them. "What did I say? Stay put." He released his aura, allowing them to move and catch their breath. Shortly after their release, one of them threw a spear at him. "There is always-" Naruto titled his head aside, evading the spear as he dashed toward the attacker. "Someone who is stupid enough to try that!" he focused his inner energy into his hands and created a small black sphere with a blue lacing around it and aimed it straight at the man's chest. "Rasengan."
Right after the collision, the villager was engulfed into a large dark ball then send flying against a tree. "There you go." Naruto uttered without any emotions and regained his composure. "Who's next?" he asked and created another Rasengan. They gulped audibly at his threat, but what was most terrifying was that black sphere on his hand. The air around it was distorted as it continued rotating.
"We will definitely get you back for that!" they grabbed the unconscious guy Naruto knocked out and cowered in fear.
How many times had he heard that? This sure was never getting old.
He scratched his head in confusion. He couldn't remember any other ramen store. The one he usually steals from was out of stock. That really put him in a pitch there and he knew what exactly needed to be done at this point. It was obviously walking through the village as if he was an ordinary villager. Though he wished it was the case.
He jumped down the roof top and walked through the crowd of villagers as if he was one of them. The more he walked, and the more he could feel them distancing themselves from him. My, my… this sure wasn't getting old either. He winked and knew exactly what was awaiting him next.
"How dare you show up your face here?!"
It was another one of his haters, as he expected. "What again?" The blond asked in a neutral expression as he faced the person who called out to him.
"Women! Children! Let us men take care of this thing! You shall return to your home until we finish dealing with it!" he shouted as if he was the main chef of the village and point his finger at the blond. Just as the man ordered, all women and children were pretty much out of sight.
It? Is that what he was to them? This sure wasn't getting old neither.
"Now, now… Let's not get there shall we? You will only get hurt for no reason." Naruto stated as he crossed his arms. As if he even cared about them getting hurt. He could care less about their lives. Whether they die or live, it didn't matter to him.
He closed his eyes and remained calm as more villagers surrounded him, all men. "No one needs to get hurt. Ya' just need to give me what I need and I'll overlook your behaviors." Naruto tried to reason but it didn't seem to work his way.
"We are not giving you anything! You don't even deserve shit!" one snapped back at him.
"I see. It's not gonna be easy I guess." Naruto pondered, bringing his right hand under his chin. Well, it wasn't too surprising at all, considering he already knew the outcome. This was going to end up with his other way.
Violence that is.
Before any of them could make a move on the blond. This one spiked up his demonic aura and slammed it on everyone in the area. They were on their knees within a second. It was a pleasant feeling to see them submitted to him. However he wasn't quite done yet, he needed to make one understand pain.
Pain… The pain he felt from the past whenever they beat him within an inch of his life. The pain of being beaten like a trash. "You are the lucky one." He extended his arm and threw it at a random direction. His finger landed on a rather fat man, standing in front of his spouse and child. Naruto walked up to him, as the latter had hard time breathing. Naruto crouched down and released him from his pressuring aura.
The fat villager fell on the ground, breathing heavily as he stared at the blond. Naruto could clearly see that he was terrified to death. "You damn sadist! You would make me suffer and let the others watch me die?!" he shouted. Very much to like he expected, the blond did not show any emotions in his eyes.
"You're wrong; I'm not a sadist at all. You have to accept and not complain about the things it throws at you. This is just exactly what life is all about, isn't it?" he stated plainly. "Just like how you all made me live hell on earth years ago. I totally came to accept it… And now you will do the same."
This was life. You deserve and accept whatever is given to you.
"Die!" the man yelled as he pulled out a dagger from his coat and aimed it at the Naruto's face.
"That was close." Naruto caught his hand and gave it a hard twist, causing him to let the weapon fall. "You really thought you could kill me with it?" Naruto slammed him down. "What's your son gonna think about a father murdering someone right in front of him? Will he accept it or not?" he turned his gaze at the man's son. As he did so, his wife immediately covered her son from his sight.
"He would accept it! You are a demon! Of course he would accept the devil's death!" the villager shouted at him.
"Then will you accept it if I take you son's life? Right?" Naruto got up, much to the villager's fear.
"Please do not! I'm begging you!" he cried and held out Naruto's leg as this one made his way toward his family. Naruto did not respond and simply shoved his grasp on him in a simple movement. "Years ago, when I begged… nobody stopped beating me." He let out, ignoring the man.
"Please do not hurt my child…" she whispered, begging the blond. Naruto stared down at her and then at her child. Despite her begging for her child's life, he could not feel any sympathy at all. He knew they had nothing to do with him, but even so… He felt nothing as he stared down at their figures.
Knowing the demon would not accept her pleads; she had not much choice left but to offer her life in exchange of her family. "You may take my life… but please… Do not hurt this child of mine…" she sobbed along and held her child tighter than ever.
"You know what they say? They say that saving one life means another has to die." Naruto waved his hand and summoned forth a black sharp stick through air only. He held the weapon in the air and stared one more time at the woman beneath him before bringing it down on her. "Don't take it personally."
"I will protect you no matter what happens…" She said those words to her son as she let her tears out.
I will protect you no matter what happens…
Upon hearing those words, the blond suddenly let the weapon fall and dropped to his knees.
I will protect you no matter what happens…
Those words… it was sickening him for some reason. It felt like his head would burst just from hearing it. He clutched his head as everything around was blacking out. "AAAAAAHHHHHHH!" he closed his eyes and shouted in pain as a vision came to his mind. He couldn't see properly the scenery happening before him. However he still managed to catch a glimpse, a very small one.
Everything around him was destroyed and pretty much turned into ashes. A giant black dragon was standing above the massive destructions, inhaling air in its huge mouth. There was also a woman. A red haired woman was before him, and she was severely injured. "I will protect you no matter what happens…" She turned and smiled weakly at him as she embraced him.
From there, everything turned back to normal. Reality came back to him. The vision stopped and his headache ceased. He opened his eyes and breathed out heavily from this little trauma. He quickly regained his calm and stood up. He looked at his surroundings as everyone was stunned at his sudden burst. The woman he was planning to kill was still embracing her child. Naruto, recalling her words, held out his head again for a brief moment as a small pain merged inside. "Get lost..."
He freed his aura from the villagers and silently walked away. The villagers stayed frozen as they watched him take his leave. They all knew stopping him now would bring their deaths. They could not afford to risk stopping him. Surely not today, at least. The fat villager quickly hugged his wife and his son and sobbed along them, relieved none of them had died. The woman then looked at Naruto, who was still walking ahead. She wondered for a second if he felt sympathy. That thought quickly left her mind for good when she saw a dark aura shaped into a fox surrounded him.
"A demon fox…" A black haired teenager who was watching all this time on the sideline said to herself as Naruto walked away.
After having refilled his stock of ramen, Naruto decided to go home. He was tired of his day and needed to think about what happened earlier at the village. He didn't understand why he couldn't bring himself to kill her after that mental outbreak. "I'm too weak!" He needed to be strong at all time so he could live on. The strong lives and the weak dies. That's all there was to it.
After a while, he eventually was able to regain his calm. He grabbed the box of ramen he dropped and jumped up the trees to get to his shelter. "Finally home." He mumbled to himself as he looked proudly at his house. It was a small shelter on a tree made of possibly everything included tree branches that acted as a roof. It was in a terrible state and barely holding. He entered his home and immediately shut the door behind him, and headed straight to his bed. He lied there for a while before getting up, having forgotten something significant. "The traps, I completely forgot to activate them." He thought to himself as he stepped outside.
Without his traps activated there was totally no way he could be at ease. The last time he forgot to set them up, some killers hired by the village made it through and tried to kill him. There were unsuccessful but still… He sure wasn't going to make the same mistake twice.
"Alright this should be it." He said as he finished preparing the last one. The traps installed by Naruto were very simple. They all consisted of a large wire almost impossible to see with naked eyes. Should you touch that wire, multiples sharped wooden stick will be thrown at you at an incredible speed. His traps were efficient against assailants. However… despite all that, they weren't meant to kill, but simply to leave someone highly injured.
"I have come forth of your summoning." A pink haired woman bowed in front of an old man. Her name was Ikaruga. She had long, bright pink hair which was tied on top of her head in two large buns. She was very light skinned, and had beauty marks underneath each eye and wore red lipstick. She wore a long, slightly loose white kimono with a red stripe in between two black stripes around the waist as well as a red triangle at the bottom of her dress, decorated by flames and skulls motifs, opened at the top, revealing her shoulders and a bit of her cleavage.
"Where is the rest of the Trinity Raven I claimed?" the old man, also known as the head of the village asked.
"Judging from the look of the assassination request, it isn't necessary at all for the three of us to come. Therefore, I came by myself." She replied calmly.
"Fine! But you better carry your assassination till the end! I want that demon gone by tonight." He ordered and turned his back at her. He doubted her assassination skills, but seeing the confident look on her face made him believe she really could complete this case by herself.
"Surely, my blade never fails me." She stated confidently as she stood up facing his back.
"You're dismissed." The woman bowed at him once more before taking her leave.
"Damn demon brat… This is your last day on earth." he let out a chuckle, and before long he was gasping for air. "Hahahahaaaaah! This is your end!"
His laughter quickly stopped when he heard his servant coming into his room.
She was a young teenager with black hair. Upon her head was a white band which separated her hair, framing her bangs from her hair below the band. Worn upon her forehead was a small circular symbol with a small dot on the inside and surrounded by several dots around the top. She wore a black-traditional japanese shrine maiden robe held to her body by a red neck lace. A red and white sash scarf was tied to her waist, she also wore long-sleeved gloves on her arms, white stockings reaching up her thighs, and the bottom of her ankles was strapped with the strings from her shoes.
"You may leave the tea on the table and go home Sayla." He regained his composure and spoke in a mature manner.
"Thank you." Sayla nodded, and left the tea on the table as he said before leaving.
