A Naruto/Fairy Tail Fanfiction

A Fanfiction by SoulReaperCrewe

He Who Endures

Chapter 1

He wasn't sure where he was but all he knew was that he was resting on a very soft patch of grass with a clear view of the blue sky above him. There were hardly any clouds in the sky giving him a beautiful image of mixtures of blue and the occasional yellow from the sun. When he turned his head, which he eventually did after hat felt like hour's of just staring up at the clear blue void he knew as the sky he saw he was lying in the middle of a small field surrounded by lush green forest that looked incredibly vibrant and alive. The cool wind blew against his skin which combined with the warmth that sun was giving him made his skin feel heavenly.

Naruto Uzumaki wasn't entirely sure where he was but he knew one thing was for damn sure. He wasn't in the Leaf Village and he wasn't in the Elemental Nations.

The place felt all wrong. Noot in a bad way but the energy he sensed here was very different from what he felt back home. He couldn't feel chakra but instead some different kind of energy that he could sense flowed through the ground and tree's. He could even sense some animals in different parts of the forest all with this different kind of energy. Somme had it and some didn't which was odd to him. Everyone had chakra back home, even the civilians and those who chose not to become a shinobi. The only reason a shinobi's was more noticeable was because of the years of training and choosing the career path of a ninja.

"Kurama...any idea where we are?"

He was met with silence and for the next minute repeated the question over and over again until eventually he just stopped. He wasn't sure why Kurama wasn't speaking to him but for whatever reason something was either blocking them from communicating with one another or...or Kurama wasn't with him anymore. Though that thought was ludicrous. He would know if Kurama had been taken from him.

The last thing he remembered was the battle of the moon. Hinata was with him and they had just finished battling Toneri which had ended in their victory. The battle had ended and Hinata had insisted that they take Toneri to the spot where Hinata had met the spirit of the long deceased Hamura Otsutsuki, Toneri's descendant and who's orders and belief's he had believed he was following. That's when thing's in Naruto's mind began going fuzzy.

He remembered speaking to Hamura and Toneri with Hinata by his side before he suddenly began feeling something pulling him away. Everyone saw it happening and everyone, including Naruto, had bene shocked when a portal, much like the one's Princess Kaguya had used during her battle with himself and Sasuke. Hinata had tried to reach for him but instead their fingers only touched one another for the briefest of seconds before Naruto was pulled into the void of the portal, pure darkness engulfing him as the portal closed behind him and he felt himself floating in a sea of nothingness.

Then everything went black and he found himself waking up in the middle of the clearing with no idea where he was.

He tried moving but the battle had taken more of a toll on his body then he thought. His sides had gashes in them that thankfully weren't bleeding anymore and his right knee was throbbing after a nasty hit from Toneri. His arms were scratched up pretty good and he was sure a rib or two were fractured. Not that he was an expert but he had become familiar with what broken ribs felt like.

He was alone and deep down he was a little afraid.

"Hey, Kid...you alright?" Opening his eyes, Naruto turned his head and looked over at the figure that was walking towards him. The man was much older than he was and Naruto presumed he must have been in his mid-thirties, or at least around there. He was quite tall with slicked back dark blue hair with stubble and a thin mustache on his face and black eyes that reminded him of Sasuke. He was decked in a long white jacket with dark brown jeans and black boots wit a brown belt around his pants. Underneath his jacket were a dark blue shirt and a necklace with aa large S resting on top of his chest. The man looked worried, having spotted the dried blood on his shirt and the fact that his clothes were ripped in a lot of places.

"I'll feel better when I know where I am. You think you could help me with that?" Naruto asked lifting his head and slowly pushing himself up into a sitting position. The man went down on his knee's to help him sit up, keeping him steady with by putting his arm around Naruto's shoulders to stop him from falling back.

"Sure I can help with that. You're just outside the town of Magnolia, in the East Forest to be more exact."

'This really isn't good.' Naruto thought. Sorry sir but I have no idea where that is. I don't suppose you know where Konohagakure is, do you?" His worried deepened when the man furrowed his brow with a confused look on his face, slowly shaking his head after a few second.

"Sorry lad but I've never even heard of a place with that kind of name. I've traveled all across Fiore and yet I've never heard nor come across a place with that name." Naruto looked into the man's eyes and saw he was being truthful which only made the fear in Naruto's chest get a little stronger. "Is it somewhere near Bosco or one of the other neighboring countries? Can't say I 've been to many places outside of Fiore."

"No," Naruto admitted. "It's nowhere even close."

"Oh." The man said and rubbed the back of his head. "What happened to you?"

"Trouble found me. I have a habit of attracting trouble I guess you could say." It was a complete lie. Trouble really did follow him like he was some kind of magnet. Orochimaru, Akatsuki, Hiruko, Toneri, Kaguya and a whole list of people that had caused him trouble and pain in the past. He guessed it was the backlash to having the devil's luck and Tsunade Baa-chan had labeled it.

Them older man continued to look down and looked around the clearing. "Can you move?"

"Let's find out," Naruto said before slowly beginning to move and tried to stand up. His muscles ached something fierce thanks to his battle with Toneri and felt like fire coursed through his joints and abdomen. None of the wounds were deep and thankfully most of the breakages had healed before he got sent through the portal. Now though with him in a place he didn't know or really understand and not to mention the fact that Kurama was unresponsive, he was left a little confused and his accelerated healing due to Kurama's chakra no longer working. It actually going tot ake him some time before he was a hundred percent again.

After a minute of struggle Naruto finally stood to his full height but soon felt his legs beginning to give out and felt himself starting to back down. Before he could land on his front though he felt the man appear next to him and catch him before he hit the ground, bringing him back up and putting Naruto's left arm over his shoulders.

"Thanks."

"Think nothing of it. Come on, I'll take you to the Guild. You seem to be a decent guy so my comrades and I will patch you up."

'Guild?' Naruto thought before deciding to ask more about it later. Thank you, I appreciate any help I can get right now." Putting more weight onto the shoulder fo the older man the two slowly began walking out of the clearing and towards the path that the man had taken in getting to him.

"What's your name by the way?" The blue haired man asked. Despite feeling tired, Naruto managed to smile and poked his thumb into his chest.

"My name's Naruto Uzumaki." Hearing his voice hold a bit more spirit in it, the man gave smirked back and patted his shoulder as the two began to walk away from the clearing.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Macao."

Magnolia

A short while later Naruto continued to lean on Macao and currently found himself staring up at a very impressive looking building that looked like something out of a children story. It was an imposing looking building consisting of three floors made out of a mixture of stone and wood, though predominantly stone. The various roof's were covered with dark red tiles that bordered on the color orange while on the top of the building was a large golden bell situated under a very small roof with a small golden spire on the top of it. On the front of the building was a large orange banner, which Naruto quickly noted and thought was badass, with a strange white emblem that he had never seen before. In front of the building was a stone gate with metal bar's covering the middle while above the entrance was a name that Naruto could only guess was the name of the establish he was being brought to.

It read Fairy Tail.

"Fairy Tail?" He asked and saw the man grin and give him thumbs up.

"You got it. The best damn Guild there in all of Fiore. Don't let anyone tell you any different." He had a proud and excited glint in his eye and Naruto saw how proud he was off this place. He could see it meant a lot to him, being a familiar look that Naruto had when he talk about his home village.

He wondered if he would ever see it again.

Walking towards the door the large building he watched as Macao pushed the door wide open and lead Naruto inside. As soon as he saw the inside Naruto found himself equally impressed and awestruck at the inside of the massive building as well. The hall was very large with dozens of tables and benches covering most of the hall as well as several long beams supporting the wooden mezzanines present on both sides of the hall, and a similarly long counter occupying the wall to the right from the entrance. Above it, a large banner bearing both the guild's name and its symbol is visible. The floor is still made of wood, while the upper part of the walls, just below the mezzanines, consists of bricks.

"Hey Wakaba, go get the first aid kit. This kid pretty banged up." Macao called out and Naruto watched as a man with a pompadour hairstyle quickly get up out of his seat and run behind the bar. Macao slowly led Naruto over to one of the tables and quickly settled him down onto one of the chairs. Naruto lifted his right leg and placed it on one of the other chairs, his right knee having flared up in discomfort during the trek. "Hey, Warren get this kid a drink of water. I doubt he had any fluids in a few hours."

"Thank you for this." Naruto commented and let out a sigh of relief as he leaned into the chair, letting his body relax.

"Think nothing of it. A member of Fairy Tail never leaves another person behind, even if their not part of a guild. If we left someone behind who was injured then we would be no better then a dark mage."

Naruto ignored the dark mage part and smiled at what Macao just said. "You sound a lot like my sensei. He always talked about how leaving comrades behind was one of the worst things' anyone could do and how if you had to break a few rules to save the person then you should completely do it. Those who break rules are trash but those who leaves their comrades behind are even lower than trash."

Macao smiled. "He sounds like a smart man."

"He is. He's one of the smartest people I know. I regret not paying more attention to him when I was younger but I'm glad I took all the important stuff to heart." The man with the pompadour hair style soon appeared next to Naruto with the first aid kit and pulled up a chair from the next table. He looked at the bruises that hadn't healed in Naruto's body as well as the gashes in his side that Toneri had managed to inflict.

"Geez, kids I'd hate to meet the guy or gal who did this to you," He replied making Naruto chuckle. Some of the other members all appeared around them while the guy that went to get him a glass water appeared and settled it front of him.

"Thank you." Naruto thanked taking a sip of the water before looking back at Wakaba. "You should see the other guy. I gave it right back with tenfold the impact." He punched his hand into his left bandaged hand though winced afterward.

"Everyone this is Naruto," Macao announced. "I found him in the East Forest looking pretty banged up so I figured we should give him a hand. I think he's a little lost since he doesn't know where he is. Let's help him as much as we can."

"Hello everyone." Naruto waved and saw a few of them wave back at him.

As Wakaba looked him over he watched as the other members took seats around him and began introducing themselves. First was Bisca and Alzack, who by the looks of it were a couple by how their arms were linked with one another. Bisca was very beautiful and had long green hair that Naruto found himself staring at for a brief moment before having the decency to look away. Next was Nab, a big muscular looking guy and Warren, a thin guy with sandy blonde hair with a bright purple shirt. Behind the bar was a pretty purple haired girl named Kinana that waved over at him. By the bar, he was introduced to Warren, Max, and Vijeeter who raised a glass over in his direction before finally saying hello to Laki, a purple haired girl with glasses and Reedus, a large man with the largest middle body Naruto had ever seen on a man. It defied anything he had ever seen before but chose not to stare in case the man was sensitive about it.

"So where are you from Naruto? Macao says your lost and doesn't know exactly where you are." Alzack asked as Naruto winced when Wakaba pressed a cotton swab with antiseptic cream onto one of the gashes on his side.

"That's right. I asked earlier but Macao didn't recognize the place. My home is called Konohagakure, or the Village Hidden in the Leaves as other know it by." Unsurprisingly Naruto saw none of them had a look of familiarity and like Macao had no idea what or where his home was. "It's okay I didn't think you would know it. To be honest, I doubt anyone will know where it is if the signs I've seen is any indication."

"What do you mean?" Bisca asked and all of them lean in with frowns on their faces.

"It's just...I don't think you will believe me if I told you the truth. In fact, you might have me committed to the crazy house." He admitted to them but saw most of them become ever more curious, tap their chins before crossing their arms. Even those by the bar seemed curious by what he had to say.

"Try us." They all said. Looking around and seeing they were all waiting for him to speak, Naruto shrugged and gave it a shot. The worst they could do was laugh at him which was something he used to due to thanks to his Academy days. Even Wakaba had stopped momentarily to hear what he had to say, blowing smoke from his pipe in the opposite direction.

"Alright well don't say I didn't warn you. I don't think I'm from this dimension. I think I'm from a completely different world all put together." He saw their faces looked surprised and he waited for them to begin laughing or telling them that the very idea was preposterous however to his surprise instead he heard them say something completely different and completely unexpected.

"Sounds legit," Wakaba said taking another puff of his pipe before going back to Naruto's wounds. Naruto gaped at the man and then saw his jaw drop even more when he saw the nods from the other members of the Guild.

"Really? Are you telling me you actually believe me?" They all nodded again. "How? Why?"

It was Bisca that answered him. "We had a member of our guild quite recently that turned out was from another dimension known as Edolas, which is essentially a parallel version of our world. His name was Mytogan who turned out to be a Prince of that world. Our worlds were connected by this wormhole known as the Anima which would appear from time to time and suck out this world's magic into their own due to how limited their sources of magic were. That was about a two months ago so it happened fairly recently."

Naruto leaned forward and eyes wide with excitement. He gripped the table hard with his hands. "Do you think this guy could find me a way home? If you know anyone that could send me home then I will be forever in your debt." Unfortunately for Naruto though he saw their faces give looks of pity and eyes full of sadness when they saw his excitement. He swallowed hard and felt worry grow in his stomach. "What is it?"

He felt Macao put a hand on his shoulder and look at him sympathetically.

"The thing is Naruto...what you're talking about...being able to go from one world to another...I don't think there is a single person in all of Earthland that knows how to do that. Edolas only managed to create the Anima because of a special machine that was known only to Edolas and even then our two worlds have coexisted so to speak for what I guess would be forever. Macao ran a hand through is hair. Even if there was someone who knew how to use such spells or techniques, no one has ever heard of your world and has never seen it. Without it..."

"Without it, there's just no way to send me home." Naruto whispered and god saddened nods from everyone in the hall. Soon enough Naruto felt his eyes beginning to mist over and felt his lower lip begin to tremble. He didn't want to cry in front of the people he had just met and were could enough to patch him up but the emotion he was feeling was proving to be too much for him to handle. He brought his hand up to cover his face but it didn't too much to convince everyone he was fine. They could see what was happening and their hearts all went out to the blonde teenager.

A weight suddenly pressed itself against Naruto's shoulder's breaking him away from his train of thought and turning his head to see what it was. To his surprise, Bisca had gotten out of her seat and wrapped him up in a comforting hug and gently rubbed her thumb across his shoulders.

"I know it might seem bleak right now but Fairy Tail went turn their back on you. We will be here to support you through this time for as long as you need us." She told him and Naruto saw all across the room everyone nodded their heads in agreement, giving him a nod of support as well as a pat on the shoulder from both Macao and Wakaba.

"You've only just met me and yet you're treating me with such kindness? Why?" Naruto had to ask. Bisca smiled at him and pressed her forehead against his and keeping the hug intact. "How do you know I'm not just tricking you all?"

"Because you don't look like the type of person that would tell such lies and come here with bad intentions. If there is one thing Fairy Tail has always been good at, it's knowing when someone has lost their way and needs the support to get back on track. We can't promise you will ever be able to go home but I think I speak for everyone when I say you are welcome here for as long as you need."

"She's right. Once you're all patched up kid we'll figure out the next step." Macao told him and gave him a thumbs up and a grin. "For now, let's get you healed and rested. You look like you've seen hell. !HEY KINANA GET THIS GUY SOMETHING TO EAT!"

"Yes, Master!" The purple haired girl disappeared behind the bar and soon the sounds of pots and pans could be heard being put to use. "I hope he likes ramen."

As if a switch in the mind of the young Uzumaki suddenly got flipped his sobs and tears suddenly stopped, much to the surprise of the Fairy Tail members and watched as his expression suddenly did a complete 180 turn and eyes light up like the Fantasia Parade fireworks. "Did she say ramen?" In the blink of an eye, the members of Fairy Tail watched as Naruto was sat on the chair to now sitting at one of the stool's by the bar barely containing his excitement. Bring on the ramen." Naruto cheered as he rubbed his hands in excitement, his mouth salivating at the mere thought and ignoring the wounds on his body. Everyone looked at him oddly before they began laughing.

As Naruto waited for his ramen he spent the next fifteen minute indulging the curiosity of the Fairy Tail mages who had now moved to sit around him at the bar. Wakaba cleaned some of the wounds but mentioned that it would be best if Porlyusica took a look at him. When asked who she was, Naruto was told she was their guild's occasional healer. She wasn't very keen on people but she wouldn't turn away someone who was injured.

"Tell us about yourself Naruto. So far all we know if your name and that your not from our world." Alzack asked, who then thanked Laki who passed him a drink from behind the bar. They were all curious to get to know their guest, especially if he was from another world entirely different from their own.

Naruto grinned and puffed out his chest. My name's Naruto Uzumaki, I'm 19 years old and I'm a shinobi from the Village hidden in the Leaves. My likes are my friends and loved ones, training, ramen, my family and the people of my village. I dislike murderers, those who would hurt innocent people for their own selfish goals, people who break their promises and go back on their word. My goals for the future...well...it was to become the Hokage but...but it doesn't look like that's going to happen." His voice turned sad at the last part, his moment of happiness gone once more as he thought of the home he might never see again.

Seeing he was about to go back into his slump it was Wakaba who asked: "What's a Hokage?" It did the trick and Naruto perked up again.

"The Hokage is the leader of my village. Where I'm from the their are five major military villages throughout my home continent and each is led by the Kage. My home, Konoha, is led by the Hokage which means Fire Shadow. The Hokage is the strongest in the village and the one that leads us down the right path, bestowing his wisdom and strength onto everyone that he commands. When you become Hokage the entire village becomes your family and it's the Hokage's job to protect everyone from those that would see them harmed."

The guild members all looked impressed. "That kind of sounds like a Guild Master, just on a bigger scale," Laki commented which got nods of agreement from everyone else. "So does that mean your military force all uses magic like yourself?"

"I've been wondering about that," Naruto replied. You guy's said magic. What's is that exactly?" He asked scratching the back of his head, having never heard of something called magic before. To his surprise, everyone looked at him in shock with multiple jaws opening wide and eyes bulging from their sockets.

"You've never heard of magic?" Warren asked and didn't hide his disbelief when Naruto shook his head. Are you telling us you come from a the world...where magic doesn't exist."

"I'm afraid so. I've never even heard of the term before and never met anyone that can use such a thing. Naruto told them truthfully and again they all saw he was being truthful.

"Just what is magic anyway?" Naruto leaned his good arm onto the side of the bar, genuinely curious to know what this thing called magic really was.

"Let me explain it." Laki asked, leaning over the bar and looking at Naruto who turned is head to listen. Magic is the physical embodiment of the spirit. When the physical spirit of an organism connects with the spiritual flow of nature, the spirit forms Magic as a product of the connection. Only ten percent of the world's population is able to use Magic which is said to help keep the balance between those that can and those cannot use magic. Magic Power is the source of Power for all Mages, it is composed of Ethernano. Every Mage has a container inside their body that determines the limits of their Magic Power. In the case that it becomes empty, Ethernano comes from the atmosphere and enters the Mages' body and, after a while, their Magic Power is returned to normal."

"Well said Laki." Wakaba praised.

Naruto listened to her explanation and found himself even more curious than before. He wanted to know more and we wanted to see it used. "Do you guys think you could show me?" He asked and quickly watched the grins all appear on the faces of the Fairy Tail mages. He watched them all get-up and then watched in amazement at the demonstration they all gave him.

Firstly he watched purplish-blue flames appeared around Macao and watched as he maneuvered the flames around his body making various shapes and forms while Wakaba did something similar only instead of flames it was smoke that danced around him and appeared to be coming from his pipe. Around Max, he saw the all too familiar form of sand appear around him that reminded him of Gaara. It didn't appear as powerful or as fast as his old friends sand but it was still an impressive show. With Warren, he was surprised to hear him talking to him in his mind with his magic he called telepathy while Vijeeter did some kind of strange dance. He didn't fully understand that one so he didn't comment. Bisca and Alzack both held out their hands and he watched as weapons appeared in their hands and both fired colorful rounds of ammunition towards various targets around the room. Warren held out his right arm and Naruto watched as a red ethereal energy formed around his arm that took the shape of a tiger's head and slammed his hand against the ground. The after effect was the guild shaking ever so slightly with everyone having to keep one another still to stay upright.

"Damn it Nab." Macao whined and Naruto saw Nab rub the back of his head in embarrassment. Beside him Laki sighed and Naruto's jaw almost dropped when planks of wood suddenly shot out of the ground and began forming over the indent on the floor until it was completely covered and looked as good as new. He whipped his head in her direction with shock in her eyes.

"You have the Mokuton!"

It comment made everyone look confused at him, none more so than Laki who looked to and from Naruto and the point on the ground that she just fixed. "What's the Mokuton?"

"What you just did with the wood. That's the Mokuton. Only someone with the cells of the first can do that." Naruto implied but saw Laki shake her head at him. The other's all continued to look confused at Naruto as well.

"What I use is not called Mokuton. I use Wood-Make Magic. A type of molding types magic that focuses on the element of wood. It means I can basically make anything made out of wood and use it for Offensive, defensive and support features." She told him before inquiring "What is this Mokuton?"

"The Mokuton is blood limit that only the First Hoage of my village, Hashirama Senju has ever been able to use. Over the years other have shown they can use this ability but only when they have his cells introduced into their body, to which even then it pales in comparison to the real thing. He could control the element of wood, nature and natural energy to such a degree that he earned the nickname God of Shinobi. He was recognized as one of the strongest people alive." Naruto told them. So if you can use wood then does that mean you can learn other elements like Ice, Sand, Lava and types like that simply by learning the magic type?"

They all nodded and Naruto took a deep breath. Now that was something new. Not to have the limitations of bloodlines both sounded wonderful and dangerous at the same time. If someone from his world could do that, someone like a member of the Akatsuki then he dreaded the idea of trying to put them down. He had already seen the capabilities from Kaguya, Madara, and even Obito and he was sure he lost a few years of his life taking part in those battles.

"Man this is a lot to take in," Naruto admitted. The other sympathize with him and acknowledge that this couldn't have been easy for him though now they were a little curious about something as well.

"Naruto if your world does not use magic then what do you use?" Macao asked. "I can sense something from you but I can't quite make out what it is. It feels both the same and different at the same time. Could you tell us what that is?"

Shaking his head from his earlier thoughts Naruto tried to remember the explanation Iruka had given them back at the Academy. While now he wished he had listened better to Iruka's lectures he had the concept of chakra drilled into his head not only by Iruka but by Kakashi, Jiraiya and Sakura as well. "Sure, what I use is called chakra."

"Chakra?"

"Yeah, Chakra. Chakra is the resulting energy produced when Physical and Spiritual energies become mixed together. Hand Seals are then used to harness this energy and expel it out of the body; Usually, in the form of some kind of offensive or defensive technique though it can also be used for support like healing. What you call spells we call justu from where I'm from. Everyone has it where from my world but only through training can people use and access it. Most of the people that use chakra are shinobi which is what I am.

"Could you give us a demonstration?"

"Though you'd never ask." Naruto grinned and held out his hand with his palm facing up. Everyone watched his hand as the sound swirling could suddenly be heard with Naruto palm beginning to glow. They watched in amazement as blue energy suddenly appeared in his palm and began to take the shape of a sphere a little bigger than a fist.

"Wow. It's like...like pure energy. It what I imagine ethernano would look like if it wasn't in it's solid lacrima form. Amazing." Wakaba commented as everyone's eyes were entranced by the sphere of chakra.

"Pretty cool huh? This is the Rasengan, one of my signature techniques and one my father created."

Amazing. They all said and Naruto lets out a quiet sigh of relief. In all honesty, he wasn't entirely sure if that was going to work since he hadn't tapped into his chakra since he arrived. Now though he felt a weight lift from his shoulders. He was glad he still had his abilities at least though with no word from Kurama he had a feeling his access to his Cloaked form and above were currently out of his reach. While he hoped he wouldn't need them and that his current skills were enough he had a feeling he was going to need to train a lot to make up for his missing techniques.

"Here's the ramen." Naruto heard and swiveled around in his chair as a delicious aroma of ramen wafted around his nose. He looked at the bowl that was sat in front of him and quickly prayed to kami for having ramen in this new world. He wouldn't know what he would do if this world didn't have ramen. Taking his chopsticks and collecting up some of the pork and noodles he quickly devoured it and let out a loud sigh of enjoyment.

"This is...amazing. You're the most wonderful woman to me right now." Kinana blushed and held her hands to her cheeks in embarrassment while the others laughed at seeing the redness dust over on her cheeks.

"So are their more members of your...urm...guild? It seems kinda empty for a small group?" He asked and quickly wished he hadn't had asked. In the blink of an eye, the happiness and joy in the room suddenly got sucked out and the faces of the Fairy Tail mages changed to ones of sadness and tragedy. Naruto might have only just met them and many back home called him dense but he knew when someone had lost someone important in their lives. He took another quick bite of his meal before turning back to face them all.

"I know I've only just met you all but please...tell me who you lost and tell me about them."

Night

Naruto couldn't sleep and instead found himself just looking up at the wooden ceiling of the room he was currently occupying. When the members of Fairy Tail all began heading off to their homes as day turned into night, Macao agreed to let him stay in one of the beds in the medical room. He had told him he could stay there for the time being until they figured out where he could go more long term since he had no money, valuable items on his person and only had the clothes on his back. Though Jet, one of the mages that arrived after returning from a mission with his partner Droy was good enough to lend him some spare sleepwear he had lain at home. It was nothing fancy and they did the job.

His mind at this moment in time though was occupied by what his new friends at Fairy Tail had told him and why he saw such sadness from them. They had lost their Guild Master and beloved comrades and friends in an unsanctioned attack from a Dragon nearly 2 months ago. The attacked completely destroyed their sacred island that was part of their guilds history and future and with it, they had lost the lives of people they cared about.

Even here in a new word, there was such evil and death pillaging the world of what made it good. They talked about their friends and told him their names and what they were like. From the loud, boisterous but ever loyal Natsu to the beautiful, frightening but forever brave Erza they all told him stories they shared with their lost comrades that left smiling, laughing and even feeling a little envious that he didn't get to meet such a group of people. Not to mention the admiration they held for their Guild Master who treated them all like they were his children and gave them advice and love when they needed it.

He reminded him of the Third Hokage and the mere thought brought a smile to his face. Not to mention by the way they spoke about Natsu, he felt he would have got along very well with their lovable Dragon Slayer.

'A Dragon. By the way, they described the dragon it sounds a lot like a bijuu. Same unreal power and equal ferocity. Somehow I doubt it's as approachable, though.' He thought as his eyes began to grow heavy. He turned around in his covers, fluffing his pillows a little before dropping his head onto the softness as he tried to get some sleep.

Before Naruto could close his eyes, however, his head snapped to the window that faced the back of the guild and immediately sat upright. He walked to the window and pushed it open, letting the cold air of the night hit him at full force. He jumped out of the window landing on the soft grass with a light thud before walking forwards and looking towards the line of tree's that faces him at the end of the grounds. His eyes darted across the line of tree's waiting for a single piece of movement until stopping on a small opening in the tree's where a dark figure began appearing from. All he had was the light that was being given from the moon and yet he could make out the person as he got closer. The person looked no older than him but had hair has dark as charcoal and a pair of eyes that matched. His clothing was black as well with a necklace barely visible around his neck and a white sash that stood out the most on his body. He was average height and a bit on the thin side and yet his appearance was not what unsettled Naruto.

He had sensed this guy only when he appeared a short distance away from the guild and it was his aura that made Naruto worry. It felt so...dark and cold that it made Naruto's inner child want to curl up into a ball and sob. He didn't need his negative sensory abilities to feel the negative energy coming from the guy. The guys face looked emotionless as it came into view and yet his eyes held a strange sense of curiosity to them as he looked straight towards him.

He continued moving forward until there were only about five meters between them. Naruto stood looking right back at the guy, not giving him the sense that he was intimidated, even if he was being given an uneasy feeling.

"You're not of this world are you?" Naruto heard come from the guys mouth and immediately Naruto's eyes Narrowed. "I sensed you arriving this morning. You energy...you're power...it's different from anything I've ever felt before. It's so...alive and full of liFe. Different yet the same to the magic of the world and yet your power feels more potent. You are a factor I did not foresee."

"For that, I feel I must be rid of you." Naruto eyes looked alarmed when the guy moved his hands up in front of him and began chanting words underneath his breath. Naruto's immediately reacted and didn't even let the guy finish what he was saying. He was now so happy he had mastered senjutsu with himself now being able to slip into his sage mode at a moments notice. He had been collecting natural energy the moment he saw the guy appear and had a feeling he as going to need it. The power was a little different as he felt something else invade his system along with the natural energy but he would look into that further later.

His eyes now going from blue to amber and his pupils from regular dots to horizontal bars, he immediately pushed off from the ground and moved at speeds that caught the shrouded man by surprise Naruto smacked his hands away from in front of him and landed strong right punch straight to the face of the young man, which in turn sent him spiraling through the air and landing hard on the ground about ten meters away.

He stayed there on the ground for half a minute before Naruto watched him begin getting back up and collecting himself.

"Try that again and I'll knock you so hard it will rattle your ancestors." Naruto told the mystery man and readied himself for another attack. He watched the young man's expression remain the same until he looked visibly surprised when moved his jaw from side to side. A moment later Naruto watched as the young man spat a tooth out from his mouth and landed on the grass-covered in saliva and blood. Naruto watched the guy just look at the tooth for about a half a minute, silence reigning between them until he noticed the guy's face suddenly morph into a small smile. It wasn't a creepy smile like Orochimaru or a power hungry one like Madara but instead, it was sincere, something that took Naruto now by surprise.

It wasn't a creepy smile like Orochimaru or a power hungry one like Madara but instead, it was sincere, something that Naruto had not expected to see from him.

"You being here...this could be good. Now there is another...that could end my existence." Naruto was visibly put off by the sentence but before he could say a word the guy suddenly vanished as if the darkness swallowed him up, leaving Naruto now alone in the middle of the clearing.

Pairing undecided currently.
