Heroes of Albion
By The Obsidian Blade
Disclaimer-I do not own Naruto or Fable and I most likely never will. The pairing in this will be Naruto/Theresa and someone else if I can think. Maybe the girl who had the teddy bear or Briar Rose. Do not complain about what will play out. I might want to explain this though; there will be no Kyuubi throughout this thing. And another thing is that Naruto will not have memory of what happened in the leaf. All he will have is chakra and the skills that he developed during his time in the leaf. And he will not have will at all. That is all
Chapter one-the rebirth of a hero
Naruto floated through the void. Everything felt bleak around him. There was nothing, just pure emptiness. It was amazing how his body could keep suspended the way it was. He only looked about sixteen or seventeen. The three whiskers that marred each cheek were deepened, giving him more of a fox like look. His canines poked out of his mouth, gleaming in the void. His body was clad in normal shinobi clothes with the exception of a black trench coat with orange flames licking the bottom of it. His hair grew to just below his shoulder blade and was kept in a neat pony tail bound by a length of medical tape. His eyes were more like a fox and became violet instead of the deep blue that he grew up with. Despite the red and white fox ears that twitched on his head and the red and white fox tail that swished slightly, he looked like another human being.
Then a flash of light went through the void and he landed hard on an invisible floor. The blonde groaned as he got to his feet and looked around. Everything was so pure, so fresh, and so white. "So this is what hell looks like," Naruto thought out loud.
"That is because this is not hell young one," a feminine voice rang out through the white area. Naruto whirled around to come across one of the most beautiful sights that he had ever seen. She was an elegant woman wearing a simple white dress that seemed to wisp around in a nonexistent wind. She had long flowing white hair that went down her back like a water fall. Her eyes were large blue orbs that seemed to spark some kind of feeling in the blonde, like a feeling of safety. Her curves were sensuous and she seemed to carry herself in some kind of motion that made it look like she was dancing while walking; only adding to her beauty. "Hell is not your domain young one."
"Who are you," Naruto stuttered out, a light blush forming on his whiskered cheeks as he continued to stare at the woman. She giggled slightly at his reaction, only making him blush even more. Her laugh seemed to be like honey to his ears. "And what do you mean that I am not going to hell. It is what I deserve after all. I am a demon aren't I?"
"I have many names young one," the strange white haired woman started. "But my most common name used is Kami." Naruto looked at her with widened eyes. The woman in front of him was Kami herself. Well it did make some slight sense. After all, only a goddess can have her features. The woman known as Kami only giggled slightly as she looked at his dumbfound expression. It was not a look that he was expecting her to be a male as most people did but a look of disbelief, disbelief that he was in front of her at all. Curling her elegant lips into a slight, kind smile began to elaborate the questions that she read from his mind. "Just because you are a demon, it does not dictate where you are sent to in the afterlife. All that matters is what you do in your life."
"But I have taken many lives," the violet eyed teen interjected, making Kami huff in annoyance.
"Don't interject young one," she said with slight anger in her voice. She coughed slightly as if to clear her throat or something of the like. "Even if you committed those crimes, you did it with regret. Every life you took, it was taken with regret. For right now, you are in limbo. This is where you would have stayed if I have not come for you. The Kyuubi is in hell so do not worry about it. As for why I am here, I have come here to give you a second chance."
Naruto looked at her oddly. What did she mean by giving him a second chance? Was that even possible? Would he be able to go back into his world and see his friends again? Before he could answer she spoke up again. "Before you jump to conclusions, there are a few things that you might want to know. The second chance I am giving you is something that you must decide as you get older. The place I am sending you to is not one that I govern but two beings do, Scorn and Avo. Avo is the one that has asked me to send you there. The world there has no ninjas but heroes; it is your decision whether to fall to evil or good. I cannot help you there. All you can do is pray to Avo that you will be alright. You will retain your knowledge of skill but not you knowledge of what has happened in your life. It will be as if you are starting a new. Do you accept?"
Naruto looked at the woman with a look that defined thinking. On one hand he gets to see a new world and fight new people. But on the other hand he will not be able to remember anything of his previous life. As she said, it would be like a new life to start off. He looked at Kami, staring her in the eyes before answering. "I accept," he said with a determined voice.
Kami smiled at the boy before placing her hand onto his forehead. "And so it shall be Namikaze Naruto. You shall wake up near Oakvale, the place where you will begin your new life. There, someone shall find you and except you into their family. Be safe and lead a life without regrets." The woman closed her eyes and seemed to mutter a chant of sorts before a bright light illuminated the area making the blonde close his eyes at the sheer brightness of the light.
Theresa was walking through the field that was near Oakvale. She was about eight or nine. Her dark brown hair was a mess as it was late in the day and she got finished playing with her younger brother of two years. Her brown eyes shined in the dim light of the setting sun. She was about to turn around and head back to the house till a light flashed in front of her, making her go temporally blind. When the light flashed down and her eyes readjusted, she saw a boy lying in the middle of the field. He had spiky blonde hair that reached to about his shoulder blades and was tied up into a neat pony tail bound by a length of medical tape. He was clad in only a pair of ragged black pants. His nails were like claws and his teeth were like small fangs. Even though his eyes were closed, she could tail that they looked a lot like a fox's own orbs. The thing that made her want to squeal at its cuteness were a pair of fox ears that flicked on his head and a tail that swished lazily on his back side. The blonde boy looked to be about her brother's age if his height was any indication. Theresa shook her head before running off to get her parents and brother to pick the boy up. She knew that they would want to see this sight. She could only hope that they would find his house or at least offer him a place to stay if he had no home.
Naruto groaned slightly as he got up. He could feel the warmth of a blanket wrapped around him and the comfort of a bed as he got up. "Where am I," the six year old blonde asked as he looked around at the people, noting four in total. One was a man that did not strike him as a fighter. Another was a boy that seemed around his age with black hair and steely grey eyes. What seemed like his older sister of about a few years stood right next to him with a worried look in his eyes. The last was a woman, obviously the boy's and the girl's mother just like the man was their father. Each of them had a worried expression on their faces
"Easy now," the woman said in concern. "We don't need you fainting on us." The blonde kitsune just looked at the family before stretching slightly. Somehow, he knew this would be one of the longest nights he has ever had.
A/N Sorry about the length, my mind is just against me so I could not get much out of this chapter even if I tried. So, how do you like the beginning of this though? And to those who actually know who the author is to a Naruto/Final Fantasy X with the somewhat of the same start is, please tell me. I would like to thank him for giving me this idea. And on a side note, please do not complain about me having to many stories out already. My mind hates me and it decides to get revenge by using a plot bunny. And it happens to everyone to! Just look at some of the best authors! Any who, I will leave you fools with just this comment, REVIEW!
