Starcall

* No, I don't own Naruto or LoL... Yes! This is a disclaimer.

Soraka sighed as she gazed upon the eternal twilight of her realm. She had been contemplating the rumors she had heard while she made her periodic to Ionia's capital city. Apparently, since the forced cease-fire between Demacia and Noxus, the latter had decided to turn its sights on the island nation. There was nothing concrete yet, but the elders didn't seem to be taking any chances.

It seemed that while the Institute of War had forbade the two strongest nations from continuing their ceaseless war's against another. They didn't seem to care about the smaller nations. The celestial only hoped that the Institute would step in if Noxus did indeed show any hostile intent.

The Starchild surveyed the stars, hoping that she could find guidance among them. While her eye's roamed across the various constellations, something caught her eye. She let a small smile grace her lips as she beheld the shooting star. Even though they were quite common within the Astral Forest. The sight still managed to somehow improve her mood. She momentarily closed her eyes, "It's as if the stars themselves are trying to comfort me..."

She tracked the course of the star and became increasingly alarmed with the trajectory that it was following. If it continued on its current path, it could very well hit Ionia.

"It doesn't look large enough to cause significant damage, but still..."

As she calculated the impact of the impending celestial body, the healer couldn't help but feel anxious as the star seemed to home in on her location.

"I know the elders call me the 'Starchild', but I've never called down a star of such size!"

Debating on her next course of action, the immortal jerked a little as she felt the massive impact of the meteor. "So close? That was just over the ridge!" Even though she was feeling a little uncertain, Soraka started to walk towards the crater.

After making a short hike to her current location, Soraka peeked around a tree to see if whatever landed was a threat. She gazed at the still hazy clearing where the 'star' now resided. Shocked at the damage that was cause by its descent.

"Judging by the irregular pattern of mangled trees and shattered rocks... whatever fell here either splintered into various fragments...," As the smoke cleared, Soraka was starting to see something that looked humanoid in shape. "... or wasn't a rock at all."

Cautiously approaching the seemingly downed figure, Soraka gasped as she took in the now identified humans features. He had unkempt light brown hair. "Or maybe blonde? It's hard to tell with the rubble covering him..." His face was slightly angular, but with enough rounded edges near his cheeks to tell her that he was still quite young. Speaking of his cheeks, he had three straight lines on each side, similar to whiskers. "Some kind of tribal marking?" she asked herself.

The parts of his body that weren't covered in dirt displayed what seemed to be some type of orange jacket with some sort of netting underneath.

"Where is this boy from that has such... unique clothing?" Soraka pondered. It sure wasn't a style native to Ionia. Filing the thought away for later, Soraka kneeled near the unconscious male and placed her hand on his forehead. She circulated her mana through him in order to examine his physical state. It was unlikely he survived his ordeal, but she was a healer, and would never turn her back on those who needed her aid.

The astral maiden allowed a frown to mar her beautiful features as she mulled over the young man's fate. "Such a cruel end for one so young..." As she began to pull her hand away, Soraka was startled by a surprisingly warm grip on her wrist. The blonde's eye's shot open and stared directly into hers. Fiery orange met glowing azure as the boy's body seemed to go ablaze with some type of yellow, almost gold, shroud.

As the man slowly rose before her, Soraka took note of the drastic change in his features. After pulling himself from the dirt, she noted that he had some kind of sandle-like boots for footwear. As her gaze traveled upwards, she observed what looked to be some kind of circle on his navel. The energy that covered him formed into some type of cloak, while the rest of his 'energy-clothes' seemed to conform to a black uniform with tear like patterns along his neck.

Soraka stayed in her kneeled position as the being still held her wrist. Even as he stood looking down at her with his radiant eyes. "By the stars! How can he possible be human...? I've never felt such dense energy from one?!"

Her mind raced as the person in front of her peered into her eyes. "It's almost if he's trying to read me! I don't know if I can stand against such power if he decides to attack..."

Soraka slowly rose to her feet .After reaching her full height, she noticed she was about a head taller than the individual in front of her. As she carefully studied him, she spoke, "Hello, my name is Soraka. Are you injured?" She smiled after her initial greeting in order to convey a sense of kindness.

"What the hell did she just say? Did you understand any of that Kurama?" The young man questioned his partner.

"I can't say that I did...and that in itself could be a huge problem..." The now identified Naruto narrowed his eyes at his tenant's remark. "What do mean by that?"

"Think about it, you've been almost everywhere in the Elemental Nations. If this woman's language isn't recognizable, what does that tell you?" Now that they were now on amicable terms, Kurama figured he would have to work on his containers critical thinking skills. "Among other things..." Especially if they were in the situation he thought they might be in.

Before he could respond, the woman in front of him said something to him while the look on her faced changed to that of a worried one.

"Do you not understand me?" Soraka let the question leave her mouth, but she felt as though she already knew the answer. The boy still held a confused grimace on his face as he seemed to reach his own conclusion on his current situation.

"Shit! What did Kaguya do to us?! Where did she send us?" Letting go of Soraka and finally taking note of his surroundings. Naruto felt the sinking feeling that he wasn't home progressively grow within him.

Glancing up from where he came, he observed that it was likely night wherever he was. However, as he continued to look into the heavens, he noticed that the stars where unusually luminous. The bright balls of light almost made the sky look... otherworldly. Naruto shook his head at his last thought and noted that he was in some kind of forest. The trees also looked to be enchanted to some degree. Nothing like he had seen in the forest of Hi no Kuni.

After taking note of his environment, he finally settled his gaze on the woman who found him. She was noticeably taller than him. Her hair was dark but seemed to have a tinge of blue in it, "Almost like Hinata..." he mused. Her concerned eyes glowed a brilliant azure as she stared into his own .Shifting his head downwards, he examined her attire. She had a short scarlet cape tied around her neck that flowed just above her waist. Her 'shirt' consisted of an n orange drape of cloth that covered her torso down to her feet. She also had some straps which seemed to hold her navy dress to her hips. He couldn't see her feet as her dress shrouded them. The blue tattoos that adorned her arms also traveled to her chest and apparently her abdomen.

As his eyes lingered on her bust, Naruto gave his assessment to his sole ally. "Oi, Kurama! I don't feel any evil intent coming from her... I don't think she's gonna attack." He hoped his judgment of her was right. Otherwise, he really was alone.

"Foolish boy, as long as I'm around, you'll never be alone!" Kurama growled to his container.

"Your right Kurama... Thanks." Inside his mind, he could feel the fox nod its head. "Never Forget, I'll always have your back! That being said... we'll have to talk later." An alarmed look washed over Naruto's face, "What?! Why, did something happen?"

The mass of chakra responded with an almost amused tone, "Yes..."

"Well! Don't hold out on me, lemme have it?"

"Hmm... Impatient brat! Very well..." The fox closed its eye's as it readied itself to explain something of seemingly great importance.

While the fox consulted with his container, Soraka watched as the mysterious man took in his surroundings. Phasing through many different emotions while he did first expression was of awe as he took in the stars and the forest she resided him. She allowed herself a moderate smile at this, "Not many mortals even know of this place, even though it is physically located on Ionia."

Next, he focused on her. "He's probably discerning if I'm a threat or not." Soraka frowned a bit when she saw his gaze linger below her neck a bit longer than she would have liked. Before she could comment on his wondering eyes, a look of unease came across his face. The Starchild narrowed her eyes slightly as she noticed something, "The way he's running through emotions... It's almost as if he's talking to somebody, but who? We're the only ones here." As she focused, she could feel some sort of presence originating from where the glowing circle was on his stomach.

"Whatever it is, it doesn't feel like mana. The way it coalesces around him, it's too dense. Perhaps he was pulle...!" Sorakas thoughts were interpreted as the glowing blonde in front of her suddenly collapsed, his 'energy-cloak' dissipating as he hit the ground.

Without the feeling of Kurama's chakra surging through him, Naruto became aware of just how much agony he was in. "I don't remember getting my ass kicked that hard... K-Kurama! Wh-What happened?" His body felt as though it had just been used as a training post for both Sakura and Tsunade.

Even though he couldn't feel the anguish his container was going through, Kurama still tried to sympathize with him. "Fool! As I was saying, I used most of our chakra to absorb the brunt of the collision with... wherever we are. That being said, you've still sustained life-threating wounds. We barely survived as it is... hopefully your instincts are right about this woman, Naruto..." The Kyuubi paused in his explanation to Naruto as he finally faded to unconsciousness.

"Otherwise, even I won't be able to save us this time, boy." The ancient fox closed his eyes as it waited for whatever awaited his container.
