Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Percy Jackson. Both Authors are both geniuses and sellouts. I mean come on. Like come on. They both made sequels that weren't needed in any way shape or form. Also I'm still pissed off since I was kid at being disappointed with how they portrayed The Lightning Thief in that abomination of a movie. Still though I respect both authors for being there in my childhood when I struggled through many events that defined who I am today.
Chapter 1: Vampi⦠New York?
Sirens of impending doom and the noise of dozens of loud horns awoke a blonde haired and blue eyed boy. The light pouring from his crystal clear window was comparable to waking up on one of those operating tables in Konoha. His warm sapphire eyes opened and closed as he tried adjusting to the light. The honking noises kept up, annoyed and still drowsy the blonde hastily got up from the bed he was on. He was dressed in only his underwear and he shivered as his feet touched down against the cool mahogany floor.
"Arg, I feel like I drunk a bottle of Ero-sensei's hooch." Said Naruto while he rubbed his eyes with the palms of his hands.
It was right then and there that one Naruto Uzumaki, Konoha's equivalent to Dennis the Menace, prankster extraordinaire, first degree badass genin, and the most unpredictable number one knuckleheaded shinobi for the first time lade his eyes on the city in front of him.
Naruto's mouth nearly touched the floor of the room as he looked in awe at the great towers made of metal and glass that rose up to the clouds. Streets paved as far as the eye could see with smooth black stone. Weird carriages slowly moving with one another in perfect symphony without any horses in front of them. Hundreds, no thousands of people walking the streets in clothes he couldn't even fathom, all of them wearing not a single similar style of clothes, along with people riding weird two wheeled contraptions. And boy that didn't even compare to the flashing lights from signs from various shops. Bright vibrant neon lights shined along every shop and street corner, but most surprising of all were the flashing images along big rectangular boards as wide as the Hokage Tower and plastered alongside the various behemoth buildings.
Naruto nearly fell back as soon as he saw the sight. He sure wasn't in the Elemental Nations anymore. It was right then and there that Naruto broke out of whatever morning spell had overtaken him half a minute before. The room he was in was abnormal. A tv sat on a dresser that was beside the door of the room he was in. A desk beside the dresser had a small laptop on it. Beside the bed he now sat on to take everything in, was a regular nightstand with a headlamp on top of it. There was an open closet in the room he was in with a set of clothes that seemed like they'd fit him.
Placing his hands against his head a sour frown creeped upon his face. Realization of where he was before sank in.
Just how the hell was he even alive?
Last thing he remembered he was in some sort of dark lair in that city Ero-sensei took him to on his training trip. After all they were sent there by one of his spies but in actuality it was one of his sensei's drinking buddies. Not long after meeting the mysterious man who his sensei mentioned many times before to be, "the most informed and most criminal informant Konoha possessed" well let's just say Naruto's expectations had been far greater than what turned out in reality.
The man had a scraggly beard, had very tanned skin, olive eyes, a gold tooth, and hair as black as the night. He was a very intimidating individual and was accompanied by three goons. To say a master spy would look like some sort of villain you'd read about in a manga wasn't what ticked Naruto off. What truly ticked the blonde haired teen out was the fact that after they had a long meeting where his sensei had to give the man a ton of money in exchange for a stone tablet. Both spymaster and master spy dragged the young genin to Emerald Bay's most exquisite casino/stripclub.
In the end of the whole myriad of escapades Naruto had with his sensei from that encounter to the journey just to make it to the city of Alleppey. One of the biggest cities in the world full of thousands of canals, crocodiles, bridges, white stone buildings, and about two million people. Let's just say Naruto's luck vanished as soon as he made it to that city.
When he was kidnapped after visiting a fortune teller the first thought that came to his mind was the Akatsuki. Instead he was greeted by a bunch of weird vampires who he first thought were beautiful and cool people. They then planned on eating him and the last thing he saw before everything flashed in his eyes was the growling of some sort of disgusting beast. Bright red eyes glowed in the the dark, dozens of teeth as big as kunai appeared in front of him. He couldn't move an inch from the rectangular table he was chained to. Hell must of greeted him.
And to think that all happened just four months into the training trip with Ero-sennin. Still though he was alive, somehow, but this wasn't home. Life lesson learned he guessed?
Before he could say anything he heard heavy knocking coming from what had to have been the front door of wherever he was at. Naruto grabbed the spare clothes from the dresser and quickly dressed in some dark blue jeans and a plain white t-shirt.
As soon as Naruto opened the front door to the apartment he was in, he saw... no one. Except for a dark brown package at his feet. Naruto peered his head out of the apartment and looked to his left and right, but to no avail. There wasn't a soul in the hallway, which by the way smelled like sweat and tobacco.
Grabbing the package and taking it inside, he opened up the package. Inside were at least eight books as thick as dictionaries and a golden note atop all of the books. Curiosity got the best of the blonde and Naruto opened the perfectly folded note.
Dear Naruto,
The time has come it seems. You probably are confused and scared, but fear not. I wrote this letter as soon as I brought you here and I made sure not a single thing would happen to you. It's a mother's duty after all to protect her children from creepy crawlies, sinister ministers, and death. The world you are in may come as a surprise but I know you will get used to it and likely love it. Give it some time.
I want to say I've likely failed with protecting you. I've realized that you have suffered your entire life through hate, hardships, and people hunting you down for what you carry inside of you. If only I got you sooner, unlike most children who receive love or family, you drew the shortest straw. However, you are my son, and every child of mine always finds a way out of every situation even when they are up against a wall with nothing to gain.
You have always been special to me. I loved your father so much it still breaks my heart to this day for what happened to him. Your father was the man you've always looked up to and it always surprised me that you wanted desperately to have followed in his footsteps to become Hokage. Minato Namikaze was your father and I loved him so dearly. He was bold, smart, handsome, and cared so dearly for me. When he found out I was pregnant with you well, you would have laughed if you had seen his face! Just know even though he was a good man I still resent the fact he used a child of mine as a sacrifice for that beast, although don't hate him for it. His intentions were nothing but pure for many thousands more people would have died the day you were born if he hadn't done something.
This comes to a part of the letter that maybe the most important. You may have guessed you are in a different world. By saving you from the world you were originally from it comes at the cost of you having to hide the fantastic shinobi gift of chakra. Everyone in this world hasn't quite discovered magic or chakra to the extent you have. Instead they have turned their talents to the more technical arts such as electricity and something called the internet. By very wary of when you use chakra because not only can regular people see it for what it is, but it can attract the wrong crowds of people. SO USE IT ONLY WHEN NECESSARY.
Still though I want you to practice up on your chakra control and I've left you some books I've compiled on several different jutsu that even people in your world would be jealous of. Also maybe the most important thing is to study this world, study up on your english, your algebra, and most important of all your Greek mythology.
You should be enrolled in Meriwether College Prep school for the following semester. Kids your age aren't off getting killed by evil crossdressing snake men with super powers, instead in the United States of America we have something called NO Child Left Behind. So you better spend the two weeks you have before you go back to school studying and catching up on your English mister.
Besides all of that I want you to know we may meet in person sometime in the future. I love you so much! I saved you because you have always been my favorite child. So stay safe, don't die because I might be in enough trouble for what I've done for you as it is. Remember son, fortune always favors the bold.
P.S
I'm glad I finally separated you from that loveable, perverted, buffoon of a mentor. A stripclub! I'll make sure he gets some karma from me personally. Don't worry I know you care for that pervert and he thinks of you as a godson, but he's still got it coming for him.
The note was covered in several wet spots as Naruto finished reading it. He couldn't believe it. His mother was alive. She saved him. Yet, he felt more lonely than ever as soon as he finished the note. Naruto quickly placed the note in the pocket of his jeans before his tears ruined it.
Several hours later Naruto finally found a set of keys for his apartment, a leather wallet with hundreds of dollars inside of it, some leather chukka boots, and a long-sleeved red striped denim shirt, which Naruto left unbuttoned. He made his way out of his apartment and went down the stairs from the twelfth floor down to the street.
He currently knew little to no English and the language of his homeworld he doubted anyone would be able to understand. So to simplify things he made several shadow clones, which were currently in his apartment trying desperately to quickly learn this worlds language.
The people who passed by gave him annoyed looks as they went around the blonde haired boy who had made in front of the Empire State Building after several hours of exploring. One of his clones memories came to the blonde in a rush causing the genin to smirk. A street vendor selling I Love New York shirts along with many people wearing Yankees hats surrounded the streets of the famous monument.
"New York City you better prepare yourself. Cause Naruto Uzumaki's here to stay!" Yelled blonde haired boy while pointing at the sky. Thunder rumbled after his proclamation causing those standing nearby to look at the kid with raised eyebrows.
For the first time this entire day, he could honestly say he felt like he could take the world by storm. Little did the Big Apple know what they now were in for.
"Goddamn! This is where our tax dollars are going to?!" Yelled a man in underwear, with cowboy boots, and a guitar in his arms.
So this is chapter uno. I'd love to ask for everyone who enjoyed the story to follow and review, it would mean a lot. If not keep reading! I hope to update soon if I have the time on my days off from work. This story will take place before book two Sea of Monsters and will go from there. I'd also like to say I'm a big fan of the concept of show don't tell so I'll likely from here on out write excerpts at the end of each chapter on Naruto's past leading up to his encounters with the vampires/monsters. Naruto's mother will not be Artemis that is way too overdone and I want to do something original. Plus the goddess I have chosen will lead to many big confrontations and will make sense according to Naruto's character.
Also I plan on not changing the characters too much I hate when stories butcher characters or make any character godlike without the needed progression from being a level 1 thug.
