Re:Shinobi

A Naruto/The Gamer Crossover

By Homura Ostusuki


Hello, my name is Homura Ostusuki, and you are reading the start of a GOAT fic. Have fun. PS. this is an obvious imitation.


Chapter 1:

Starting a New Life


Day 1:

When his eyes opened up, the first thing he thought of, felt, and experienced, was … confusion. How had he been able to open his eyes again? The last time he had his eyes open, he was feeling the pain of death.

Death against invaders rampaging within' his house.

His name is … Avarkus Amino.

Last time he had been awake, they had ran into his house. The door was slammed down, and bullets flew endlessly. He heard them scream, as they fell like thuds. The had quickly came upon him, and no words were said, just shots.

He collapsed on his bedroom floor with his guts spilling out from the bullets.

His eyes were heavy, and he felt them close. His final thought had been about if the heaviness he felt was what death was.

But now … he could see again, albeit blurrily. He could feel again.

He definitely did not have his gut out in the open.

At the same time, he felt a heaviness that was very different from the last he experienced. This heaviness was ... just heavy. His arms were heavy. His head was heavy. His legs were heavy!

Everything was heavy. And he felt hungry. He felt very hungry. Someone black appeared over my head. Huh, whoever this is must be wearing some funky hat. There was something that they placed on my lips, and naturally, I sucked. Milk? Eh, too tired to care. Weird, I also suddenly feel to.. to ... too sleepy...


Day 100

He was busy drinking the milk the nurse was giving him. His eyesight was still bad, but he began to clearize everything that was around him.

It made sense now, why he was not feeling any pain. Someone must have returned for him, and rescued him after he fell unconscious. They must have been quick, though, to have saved him.

...Or not. If he was not feeling pain when he should be, he was put on painkillers. If he was on painkillers, then there was something wrong with him. If something's wrong with him... Ugh.

Once again, fatigue was getting to him for thinking. Time to sleep...


Day 510

The eyes opened again, and surprisingly, he felt better. He tried to sit up, and he sat up. He tried to move his limbs, and he did. And he did it again, and again and again... Until he began to cry.

The thing is, every time he moved his arms, he did not see a dark colored arm and leg move. He saw thin, pale-skinned, and short porcelain limbs moving.

What the hell had happened to him?!

He tried to stand up, and he stood up, and once he did, he realized that his eyes were also better.

He wished his eyes hadn't been able to see at all.

He was in an … orphanage? Surrounded by people, babies, who all looked to be sleep. And a woman who looked like an … anime character?

"Ah, so you haven't went to sleep yet. You are quite the energetic, are you?"

"W..." Avarkus tried to speak, but found that he could not. Rather, his vocal cord felt like sand. "W-What-"

The anime woman looked impressed. "Oh, now you're speaking! You special little thing, you could probably be a great shinobi, a gifted one."

Avarkus raised his eyebrow.

The anime woman stared off into space for a bit before she smiled. "I almost forgot. You're name is …"

PING

What the?

"Is this re-"

Avarkus looked around, and found that everything was frozen. His mind took some time to process everything, and he looked at the ethereal screen.

"This is it, I guess," he muttered as he pressed Next.

Avarkus thought for a second as he looked at his stats. 'Shinobi.' he remembered the woman saying.

"Ninja?"

-*Please Wait a Moment . An Interruption in progress. *-

Avarkus rumbled as he shook his head and began thinking once again. 'Shinobi, Ninja …"

"Naruto." he whispered, and saw that the error message didn't appear. It all began to click in his head …

"Woohoo!" he yelled as-

-*Please Wait a Moment . An Interruption in progress. *-

he threw his hand into the air. "Dreams do come true," he whispered as he looked back at the screen.

'Out of all of these, which ones will bring me closer to Itachi … ?'

He quickly made up his mind as he put two in both Intelligence and Wisdom and one in Dexterity.

"I doubt i'm an Uchiha." he whispered as he went on.

Which Faction do you side with?

Konohagakure: 100 (your home faction)

"That just proves it," Avarkus whispered as he looked at the "Faction" he was sided with.

"Now, let's see…" he muttered as he looked over the list of traits available to him. "Itachi? Genius."

[Genius

+10 to all stat's excluding spirit, magic, and endurance.

+1 to all stat gains. (Ex: Increasing 1 point on STR would give additional point to STR due to Genius trait).

-Extremely expensive trait (-60)]

"60 points?" he whispered as he looks through the list of traits that could help him balance of genius.

"Cynical."

"That's -45." he thought, going on.

"Cruel." Itachi's cruel, right?

+Be unaffected by the maiming, torture of an enemy.

*Most likely WILL torture the enemy.

-Trusting/Kind characters will heavily dislike you.

-The development of an Infamous reputation.

-A lack of Empathy.]

"Itachi, Tsukiyomi: Cruel? That sounds about right." he thought as he clicked the trait.

[Trait - Cruel: Taken]

"Now, what else…" he muttered before he found his next.

'-30…"

"Deceitful." he didn't even look at the trait as he took it, or said it, as it was pretty obvious in his mind.

[Trait - Deceitful: Taken]

Avarkus nodded, completely satisfied with his choice. He was at -10 trait points right now, which allowed him to pass the Trait portions, and move unto the Focus portion. Just to make sure, he went to see the list of traits he had taken before he moved on.

Traits Taken:

Ambitious

Quick

Genius

Cynical

Cruel

Deceitful

"Ha! I sound like a hero's worst nightmare. Now, on to the Focus."

Focus

Focus is exactly that: a focus for your path in life. Focus determines the type, number, and quality of daily quests and epic quests who receive.

For example, a human who chose the Seduction (unavailable at the moment) Focus will be given daily quest to increase his reputation with the opposite gender with reward EXP depending on the number of women he "seduces." His epic quest will be along the lines of having a harem.

"So my Focus would determine what kind of actions I would be guided to take?" Avarkus muttered. "Okay, let's see my list of focuses... Learning, Experimenting, Hunting, Leadership, Friendship, and Growing. I wonder which one I will benefit the most from..."

While unknown to the man himself, the traits that he took earlier was already working its way through his logic processing. Already, his mind had shifted from his previous mindset to another that accommodated the changes in himself. His Ambitious trait fueled his Genius and Quick traits. At the same time, his Cynical, Cruel and Deceitful traits worked their magic on his personality.

In the end, he took the Learning focus.

And then he found himself in a familiar classroom.
