AN1: I am mergeing chapters one and two, so here it is. I am leaving my other AN's in place though, so there will be another right after this.
AN: My other story is not being continued, just so you know. I accidentally screwed everything up, and I promised myself I would not start another story until I had a decent amount of planning and a nearly full map of character development strength wise. So here is Golden Flash
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naruto was running from that which caused him the most fear- drunken ninja. Thankfully no ninja over the rank of jounin ever attacked him, but he still had trouble avoiding them. Naruto cursed the person who came up with the saying "Old enough to kill, old enough to drink"-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere far away, Anko sneezed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
but lately Naruto had been able to avoid Genin and normal civilians. Chuunin were still hard to avoid, but they were less likely to become intoxicated. Still, it still happened sometimes. Naruto turned a corner, and found a dead end.
"The demon went that way!" shouted the chuunin chasing him whenever there was even one chuunin, he would help find Naruto while the others trapped him. Running for dear life, Naruto found a dead end. He clapped his hands together in order to pray.
"Please Kami, I don't want to die!" he cried. He put his hands down, and was surprised when a golden flash illuminated the area once his hands touched the ground. Once his eyes adjusted, Naruto was surprised that the wall was behind him. The walls to the side of him were the same, but it was as if someone had moved the wall in front of him a few feet back. He heard the disappointed cries of the mob behind him and tried to get up. However, he was suddenly much more tired then he had felt before, and simply passed out. An hour later, a passing ANBU with a falcon mask picked him up and took him to his apartment floor, and left him. He knew that there was a large chance a mob could attack him like this, but the standing orders were simply to make sure he is not forced outside and to stop any fights seen.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naruto was confused. One minute he is getting away, the next he is in a sewer. What kind of things had the townspeople let in there this time to eat him? Snakes? Gators?
There were several manholes that had a genjustsu covering them so he could fall in, mainly in routes he commonly walked on. Some children had died because of this, but those who set up these traps simply blamed it on him because he hadn't died first. Not that Naruto knew that.
In front of him were large prison bars that seemed to hold a red animal. Its eyes were about level with Naruto's hip, and were very… sad. The creature easily walked between the bars, revealing itself as a fox with nine tails.
"Hello Naruto. I am very sorry for all the trouble I have caused you."
"Who are you?' asked Naruto
"I am known by many as the Kyuubi no Kitsune. You however, may call me Edward Elric"
AN: Yes this is a crossover, but not an extreme one. Ed and possibly Al will be the only ones who show up from Fullmetal Alchemist. I will be borrowing one aspect from the story Fullmetal Fox, which has already been partially revealed. I know this may seem like a setup for a super Naruto, but I am going to place special measures to prevent that. Once I see how big this is on FF I will decide when the next update will be, I will decide when to post an update. The first few will come out fast because I am on Thanksgiving break and Christmas break is soon. If you really wish for me to continue The Snakes FollyI will have to re-write it.
AN: Ok I looked, and saw that my previous chapter was to short. So here is more! I am doing this a separate chapter so in case anyone reads while I am typing, they can read this too. Most chapters after this will be loner than both this and the previous chapter.
"Kyuubi? Isn't that what the villagers call me when they hit me?" Asked Naruto
"Yes Naruto. I have been waiting to contact you for quite a while to talk to you. There was an accident, and I was sealed inside of you to protect the village. However, once I had… I guess the simplest way to put it for now is I calmed down, I could easily have come out at any time, but I wished to tell you first. I am going to go with you back to the real world now, and we must see the Hokage-"
"You mean the Old man?" said Naruto, thoroughly confused, and glad to be able to finally understand some part of the conversation fully.
"Yes. You must hide me though. I will walk around with a bed sheet or something to hide what I am, and follow from a distance. There I will explain everything."
Suddenly Naruto's entire world began to spin, and he found himself on his apartment floor. On top of his stomach was a small fox with two tails. It seemed to be trying to twine them together to look like a single one.
"Oh good, you're awake. Lets get going." Naruto nodded and went down the path that had the least risk of finding drunks on his way to the Hokage. The 3rd had actually prevented bars from opening on this path to protect the boy, and soon they were at the tower and Naruto was wondering how to sneak his fox friend in, having a hard time getting past secretaries him self sometimes. Ed simply walked past him and placed his paws on the side of the tower. There were suddenly steps, and a surprised Naruto followed the kitsune up them. At the top were coats hanging up, and the fox taped his paws on the ground causing the stairs to disappear. Naruto recognized this as a coat closet inside the Sandime's office. He opened the door only for a kunai to whiz past his head.
"Who are you and how did you get in-" Began the 3rd until he saw that it was Naruto. He was calm until a fox came out from behind him. The 3rd Hokage grabbed Naruto out of the way and began seals for a fire jutsu, until the kitsune told him he meant no harm and asked to explain. The Hokage wearily nodded, but kept his hands one seal away from an attack
"I did not attack your village under my own will. I was human long ago, but I later became a force of nature.
I am truly a good being, and because of that my power is normally good as well. However, the creation of good also creates an evil energy, which builds up, and if I do not expend it, then it will release itself the first time I use energy.
I did not wish to do anyone harm and stopped using any energy at all for thousands of years and would have continued to do so. However, I was captured by a human and was used as a battery for an immortality jutsu. I do not know if it was a success, but as soon as a small portion of my power was drawn out, all of the evil energy took over. I destroyed several unpopulated plains of land before coming to Kohana and being sealed in young Naruto here. As soon as I had used up all of my energy inside of Naruto, I regained control. I then could have escaped at any time, as sealing is only an attempt to copy the art I once practiced: Alchemy. Naruto here also has the ability to use alchemy, and this ability will be passed down through his family.
Alchemy will require energy from him just like Ninjutsu would, but without this bloodline I have created, he would not be able to use both. Those who are direct descendants of me have had great talent in sealing, such as the 4th Hokage. Because Naruto is also one of my kin, I was able to split his chakra wells.
Naruto interrupted then- "So I am related to the 4th!?" He asked excitedly. The 3rd began to sweat, but Ed decided that this was a secret best kept for now.
"To some extent, yes. I do not know how much, but you could be so narrowly related that no one knows of your relation to him"
Until he learns to force the energy into certain wells, his levels in each of them will depend on what he has recently eaten.
If he fills only his chakra wells, its levels will be equal at that time to what they would be if I had never done anything, He can put any amount of that energy into a separate well for alchemy, but his body can only handle a certain amount of power. Thus, he can't fill both of them. With a small amount of training he can chose how much energy enters either well for any food. All he has to do is chose before he eats. If he wants too, he can start filling the other reserve mid-meal.
You may have heard of people having absolutely no chakra- those people would be able to use alchemy, but they are rare and it will not be passed onto their children often and because Alchemy is a lost art none have trained in it.
Naruto, if you want to, I can train you to use this art. You can also enter the ninja academy to train there."
Naruto thought about it… For 1 second "Yes! Ill even show jerks like Sasuke he isn't the only one with some cool power!"
The third thought about this for a bit longer. The truth is that this bloodline is only partly given to him by the Kyuubi. If I can conceal that fact then the council will most likely cease their constant cries for his death. His mind made up, Sarutobi spoke "I approve. Kyuubi-"
"Call me Ed please" Said Ed
"Ed please helps Naruto do so. I will keep an eye on you, but I believe your story. When is the next time that you will have a heavy buildup of energy?"
"With the amount that I have built up inside of Naruto, about 3 years until I have to go to sleep to keep from it coming out. It will be nowhere near the level of my previous attack if I let it out and I will have some control. I can however let some out early or even siphon it off to another life. Narutos seal makes it so that I can do it to him with the least amount of side affects and because I have kept myself chained to his seal partially."
"Why is that?" asked Naruto, confused.
"Put simply, I wish to eventually die. I have lived for so long after all of my friends have died, and because the seal was made so that when you die, I do as well this may be my only chance."
"Very well" The Hokage sighed.
"Oh by the way, do you know of anyone who would be willing to be paid to buy things for us, without anyone knowing?" Asked Ed
"Why do you need someone like that? And where would you get the money"
"These people sell Naruto the worst stuff at the highest prices. As for money, Alchemy is pretty good for stuff like that." Replied Ed.
AN: Ok here is chapter 2. I had some trouble describing all the bits about the bloodline; I hope that my "Well" description helped. See ya.
Review or Ed eats you!
