Chapter 1


''Wuaaah! My son is already leaving his poor mother!'' A beautiful red haired woman cried out in an exaggerated manner. Her face was buried in the chest of the blond man standing next to her as she continued to weep.

The blond was awkwardly patting the woman's head while sending a smile towards the young man standing across from him who could be written of as his twin with how familiar they looked. ''C'mon Kushina, we both knew it was just a matter of time?'' He consoled his crying wife.

''B-but Minato!'' His wife leaned her head back, showing her tear-stricken face as she glared weakly at her husband. ''He's still my baby!''

''He's seventeen, Kushina. We've prepared for this, haven't we? Since he first told us he wanted to go to Beacon?''

''I..I know but still..'' She tried to reason as she turned towards her son who stared at her with a deadpan expression plastered on his face.

''Do we have to do this every time mom? You're kind of making a scene. You really should act as a woman of your stature you know? More like dad.''

Sniffing, Kushina looked around and saw that her son was right as a crowd was gathered around them. Though it wasn't something out of the ordinary whenever they were out in public given that they were the royal family of Uzushio and often mingled with the general populace.

Naruto just shook his head at his mother's antics. He thought he had gotten used to it by now but it seemed he was wrong.

His mother was Kushina Uzumaki, heiress to the throne of Uzushio and had risen to the rank of Queen shortly after her parents stepped down after she had found her husband. She was the sole daughter of the previous King and Queen of the island and was as loved by the people as much her parents before her were.

Her husband, his father, was Minato Namikaze. He was an orphan originating from Mistral who, according to his mother, had once saved her from a large pack of Grimm after a kidnapping attempt had been made on her when she was younger. Her kidnappers had met their end after the Grimm had ambushed them and left her as the sole survivor.

Despite having her semblance unlocked, due to being a Princess she didn't know how to properly defend herself and had merely accepted her fate as Grimm food. It wasn't until her vision was filled with bright yellow flashed followed by a few seconds of silence that she realized she had been saved by his father.

Apparently after seeing who had rescued her, his mother had insisted on having his father come with her to the island of Uzushio and meeting her parents so they could meet the young man that had rescued their daughter.

Her parents had then asked Minato if he wanted to live in Uzushio which he accepted after a lot of begging courtesy of Kushina. One might guess where this is going to but as time passed his parents grew closer to another until they eventually married.

Worthy to note is that is was his mother that had asked his father out, according to her at least and after seeing his father's embarrassed expression he knew she spoke the truth. Heh, he remembered making fun of his father after his mother first told him that.

His memories were broken as he watched his father detach from his mother and move towards him, coming to a stop in front of him. ''I already know the answer but are you sure this is what you want, Naruto?'' Minato's deep blue eyes stared into the equally blue ones of his son.

His son nodded. ''It is,'' He pushed away some stray blond locks that were close to blocking his vision. ''Beacon is considered one of the safest places in Remnant, after Uzushio of course. But i'll make sure to keep you and mom up to date with my scroll if it calms her down.''

Minato chuckled as he ruffled his son's blond locks much to younger blond's annoyance. ''Alright. Be aware that your mother sent Ozpin a message so he will be aware of your arrival. I made sure he won't treat you special as i know how much you hate when people do that.''

''Thanks dad. You'd think mom would be a bit more at ease since i won't be going alone...''

''Ah yes, speaking of which-'' Minato wasn't able to finish what he tried to say as he was suddenly pushed to the side as Kushina stomped over to her son, reached up to grab the collar of his jacked and pulling his face down.

''M-Mom?'' Naruto swallowed as he noticed the look in his mother's eyes.

''Naruto Uzumaki,'' Hearing his mother call him by his full name he knew she was serious. ''You better not end up making us grandparents while you two are there. While Minato and I both approve, we're too young to be grandparents and you are way too young to be a father. Understand 'ttebane!'' Sure, she would love nothing more to have some grandchildren she could dote over but not right now damn it! She wasn't even in her forties yet!

Naruto quickly nodded his head up and down as his mother's wrath was not something he wished to experience. He had seen what it could do to his father and it was more than enough to get him to quickly agree.

Staring into her son's eyes for a moment Kushina eventually let go of his collar with a huff. ''Good, she's a nice girl who'll make for a wonderful wife if you marry her in the future. You two are aware of the rampant racism that is prevalent in Vale and the other Kingdoms?''

''We are mom. But i care not for what they think. I like her and she likes me and that is all that matters, to me at least. And if they try anything to her…'' He trailed off but the look in his eyes told Kushina enough.

''I see you've really prepared for this haven't you? Since it seems like i can't change your mind i hope you have fun and will be safe.'' She gave her son a hug which he returned. ''Oh! That reminds me…'' Taking a step back Kushina fumbled around for a bit before a scroll appeared in her hand. An actual scroll as opposed to the handheld device that shared its name. ''Ozpin told your father and I what you can expect there and while i can't reveal what, the two of us sealed some items in here that you'll find useful.''

''Thanks.'' He took the scroll from his mother's hands before he made it disappear after holding it to his wrist. ''Is that it or is there something else?''

''No.. That's it. Just.. be careful okay? You're expected to take over from Minato and I in the future and it would be prefered if you were still in one piece.'' Kushina took a step back next to her husband who wrapped an arm around her.

''I will, i promise mom, dad. If you don't mind though i'm going to quickly change into a different outfit and make sure to bring my sword with me. Also check up to see if she's ready as well.''

''Oh! You mean those robes we gifted you for your birthday?'' Kushina asked excited and he nodded. She had been waiting to see him wear those but for some reason he kept postponing it with each opportunity.

Minato interjected on his wife's enthusiasm. ''Are you sure you wish to bring that sword with you Naruto? While it's yours now, it's also a priceless heirloom worth several mountains of gold and if word gets out there…'' The implications were clear even when left unsaid.

''I'm sure dad. For some reason i can't handle any type of sword except that one. It just feels natural to me when i'm holding it. I'll make sure to keep it with me on all times though.''

''Alright, i can see that arguing with you will probably end with a loss for me.''

Naruto chuckled as he scratched the back of his head. ''Yeah.. Now, if you two don't mind i'm going to get ready in time for when the Airship will arrive.'' Giving his parents a wave of his hand, his form flickered and then he was gone.


''So… That's Beacon huh..'' Naruto mumbled as he stared out of the window belonging to the Airship transporting him, his blue eyes taking note of the silhouette of a structure he could see in the distance. ''What do you think Mae?'' He turned his gaze to the side and was met with a pair of orange furred fox ears that were sticking out between her peach pink hair that was held in a ponytail by a blue ribbon as her head was resting on his shoulder.

He continued to trail his eyes down to her face, from her pale, unblemished skin to her soft, plump looking lips, taking in every little detail like he had done countless of times before.

Her eyes slowly fluttered open, revealing bright golden orbs that looked around a moment before landing on him and her lips morphed into an affectionate smile. ''It's alright, nothing too extravagant compared to back home.''

He smiled at what she considered home which was back in Uzushio, the palace she lived in with himself, his mother and his father. ''Yeah.. but it'll do.'' One of his hands that was resting on her lower back moved down towards the base of her large, fluffy and bushy tail she took good care of.

''Ooooh~!'' Her eyes widened upon feeling his touch before they turned half-lidded as she leaned deeper into him, a soft rumbling noise could be heard from her throat. How cute. Which she was in his opinion, the perfect amount of cute and beautiful combined. ''Mhm, these robes you're wearing are really soft~''

''Indeed..'' He looked himself over in the reflection of the window before him. He was wearing a mostly white robe with over it an equally white cape. Two small blue crossed resided near his shoulder area and it was held together by a pink ribbon while the robes beneath were closed by a golden one.

It made for a nice contrast with his bright blond hair if he'd say so himself.

Aside from that he also wore rather baggy black colored pants with gold lining that ran across the leg pants with black boots. Each part of his outfit was made of the finest cloth available through Remnant and cost a fortune.

Lastly, to finish his outfit attached to his hip on the side that wasn't occupied was a beautifully crafted scabbard that was a work of art by itself. Just with a single glance one could tell the blade sheathed within was important, which it was an understatement if anything.

Moving over, he took in Mae's form with appreciation. Her outfit was much more revealing and sensual than his. It consisted of a blue top with detached sleeves and a long black sash around her waist, showing off her shoulders, part of her upper arms and her back. It also had a hole in the back of the sash which she used to push her tail through.

A blue cloth came with the top which hid her panties from view as it was rather short since it stopped near her hips. A bit of her bare thighs were shown as the rest was covered up by her blue thigh high stockings.

Finishing her outfit were the black geta she wore which despite looking rather impractical was no issue for her as she gotten used after wearing those back in Uzushio.

She was most definitely eye-catching and he was pretty sure the fact that he liked to see her in those clothes was a large reason as to why she was wearing them in the first place. Though he couldn't help but frown as others would be able to ogle her like that, even if she was a faunus, one would have to be blind not find her attractive.

At least he could take solace in that looking was as far as they would ever get.

''Almost there.'' Naruto said as they were close enough that the two were able to get a good look at the school they'd be spending the next year at minimum in.

They were the only one in the Airship, this one sent out specifically for the two which was a welcome surprise since Uzushio didn't allow outsiders to even enter their airspace uninvited which would be any other person aside from the pilot.

The airship then briefly rumbled as it was landing but Naruto was able to keep his footing while Mae had quickly wrapped her arms around him. As quick as it came the rumbling was gone as they had reached their destination.

As the door leading out of the ship opened, the pair exchanged glances before smiling at another, nodding as they began making their way towards the exit with their hands intertwined.

''Uwah! It's a lot larger upclose~!'' Mae chirped as her golden orbs darted around.

''Yeah..'' Naruto glanced at the area surrounding the Academy. ''At least the location is quite nice, lots of greenery everywhere.''

They noticed another Airship that was docked as well, this one much larger than the one that brought the two of them here. Understandable of course as they assumed it brought the other students here.

Feeling her tug on his arm, he rolled his eyes as she was nudging her head in the direction of the Academy before complying and letting her drag him along. As expected stares were sent their way as they walked past several other students who were also making their way to the Academy.

Though he assumed those stares were for how they were dressed and perhaps Mae's ears and tail that were out in the open. He very much doubted many would recognize him by appearance, even though he looked like a copy of his dad..

''Hey, look.'' Mae nudged his side before inclining her head into a particular direction. Focusing towards where she wanted him to look, he was presented with the scene of two girl arguing with another.

''Schnee.'' The name left Naruto's lips with a hint of distaste. There was history between their two families and the current relationship they had wasn't what one would call good. It wasn't bad per se either but yeah, far from good. Unfortunately though he was one of the reasons behind their current relations. Well, both himself and the older sister of the now yelling white haired girl. ''Hmph, let's go.'' He lightly pressed against Mae's back as a sign that she should lead the way.

Leaving the Schnee to bicker with whoever was unfortunate to run into her, they didn't notice the pair of narrow amber eyes that followed their forms until their they were obscured and no longer visible.


Naruto and Mae were currently standing in an auditorium of sorts filled with boys and girls of their own age. Apparently some kind of speech would be given for the new students which included them.

In an attempt to not garner too much attention Naruto had opted to stand near the back with Mae, the latter resting her weight on him as he had an arm around her, his other hand was currently resting on the hilt of his weapon. It was mostly out of a habit really as his fingers would get twitchy if he would be just standing there.

He was at least glad his attempt to not garner attention seemed to work aside from a couple glances in their direction which were mostly boys that were staring a little too long at Mae for his liking.

''Hiii!'' Aaaand it seems he spoke too soon as a voice chirped from beside him.

Slowly he shifted his eyes over to the girl that seemed to address him and noticing it was the very same girl he and Mae had seen arguing with the Schnee earlier. The tightened the grip he had on the hilt of his sword after noticing her silver eyes turn into stars after landing on the expertly crafted sheath.

''...Hello?'' He tensively returned the greeting and was glad when it seemed to snap her out of whatever stupor she had been in.

''Ah!'' She blinked a few times after realizing what she had been doing. ''Ahaha.. Sorry about that. I-I can get a bit weird when it comes to weapons.. That's what Yang says at least.'' The last was muttered though he managed to clearly hear it and from the twitch of Mae's ears so did she. ''Anyway~ I'm Ruby, you?''

''Naruto,'' Came his curt reply before gesturing towards the pink haired fox girl holding onto him. ''And this is here Tamamo no Mae, or Mae but she only allows me to call her such.''

''Nice to meet ya.'' Ruby said as she looked at the pinkette, a light red hue dusting her cheek as the outfit she was wearing made her sister's look modest. She couldn't help but notice the bushy tail coming from behind her, something which interested her as the faunus she had come across before made an effort to hide their features.

''Heya little sis!''

''Yang! What are you-mphff.'' An older looking blond appeared out of seemingly nowhere and brought Ruby in an embrace and twirled her around, much to the younger girl's embarrassment. ''I see you've followed my advice and found yourself some friends.'' She released Ruby who stumbled for a moment due to being a tad bit dizzy. ''Ooooh~ Hello there hot stuff.'' She ignored her little sister in favor for the blond she landed her eyes on, a flirty wink accompanied her words as she sauntered up to him.

However, she didn't even manage to get close for as soon as she made it within ten feet the fox girl that was all affectionate with him hissed at her, sending her a glare from her slitted orbs. ''Ahaha.. i was just joking..?'' Yang held her hands up as a sign she wasn't planning of moving closer.

It didn't seem to work as it wasn't until Naruto scratched Tamamo behind her ears that her glare dropped in favor of a more lidded one. ''Sorry, she can be quite possessive around girls she isn't familiar with.''

''Ah, so you two are..''

''Yup.''

''Shame…''

Naruto released a soft chuckle as he opened his mouth to comment but stopped as a tall, white haired man appear on stage. He quickly recognized the man as Ozpin, Beacon's headmaster who's a rather interesting man according to his parents.

''I'll...keep this brief. You have traveled here today in search of knowledge-to hone your craft and acquire new skills. And when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But I look amongst you, and all I see is wasted energy, in need of purpose – direction. You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step.''

Naruto blinked as he watched Ozpin turn around and leave the stage after having said his words. For the first time a short speech was actually short.

After Ozpin left the stage a blonde haired, glasses wearing woman took the mic and addressed them. "You will gather in the ballroom tonight. Tomorrow your initiation begins. Be ready. You are dismissed." Like Ozpin, she too left after saying her piece.

''Huh.. that was a bit.. weird?'' He turned to Tamamo and see her nod in agreement. ''So everyone will be sleeping in one room together, did i get that right?''

''Correct blondie,'' Yang answered him as she had an arm thrown around her little sister. ''Well, me and Rubes are going to check up on our lockers. Later~.'' With that they were off, leaving the pair behind.

''Wait, lockers?'' He shared a glance with Tamamo who seemed equally as confused. As far as he was aware no one said anything regarding such..

''Indeed, mister Uzumaki.'' Upon hearing a voice, Naruto and Tamamo twirled around only to calm down as they saw Ozpin standing there, calmly sipping from a mug he was holding in his hand.

''Interesting.. I didn't manage to sense you, what about you Mae?'' A shake of her head was her answer. ''I see. Anyway headmaster, what's the reason you're here? You're bringing a lot of attention towards Mae and I which i hoped wouldn't happen..''

Ozpin nodded as he had assumed this was the case with how he had seen the pair stay near the back. He also noticed that the blond still had his hand still resting on the hilt of his sword, his eyes scanning over its scabbard. ''Oh? Is that weapon what i think it is?'' He queried, changing the topic as tried to get a better look of it.

''Mhm? You know of my sword, professor?''

''Know of? No, i wouldn't say i do. I have seen enough pictures of it though to recognize it when i see it in person. Still, you mind answering as to why someone such as yourself wishes to become a huntsman? If reports are correct, Grimm aren't really an issue for Uzushio. That, and you are still a Prince of an island many consider to be a paradise.''

Naruto snorted with a roll of his eyes. ''Heh, i guess you're right but i just.. i just-'' He felt Tamamo give his hand a reassuring squeeze that made him smile at her and she returned it with a small nod before he took a calming breath. ''I know many people would love to be in my place. To live a life without worries, a Prince to an island that is considered to be the safest place in Remnant but for me.. I know i can do more than that. The point is though that i'm here to make use of what i am capable of, at least until it's time for me to take the crown from my parents.''

Staring at the blond Prince, Ozpin allowed a smile to form as he could see he meant each of his words. Truly the son of Minato and Kushina even if he wouldn't have looked like a copy of his father. ''I see, that's all i was curious about, mister Uzumaki. It's an honor to have the Crown Prince to Uzushio here at the Academy along with who i assume is your partner?'' He glanced toward fox faunus next to him.

''She is and has been for a couple years now even if we've known each other longer. We don't discriminate against Faunus in Uzushio so our relationship isn't seen as weird or disgusting like i'm sure it would somewhere else.'' Ozpin gave an understanding nod with a sad smile.

''Understandable. I've held you two up for long enough so i'll be taking my leave. Feel free to wander around as long as you'll be in the ballroom later this evening.'' Raising his mug towards the pair as a sign of goodbye, Ozpin turned around and left them to their own devices, eagerly waiting to see how they'll do in tomorrow's initiation.


''Nice and comfortable..'' Naruto hummed as he looked himself over in the mirror. It was late in the evening and most student were already in the ballroom while he himself was changing into his own sleepwear.

Watching himself in the mirror as he was wearing his silky black sleeping robe which had orange swirls on each of its short sleeves and came to his knees. He had it closed loosely with the sash around his waist, allowing some of his bare chest to be seen.

Closing his locker after putting his previous outfit in there he left the changing room and was met by Tamamo who appeared to be waiting for him. He took in her appearance as she was in her own sleeping clothes which was a blue night robe that stopped around her thighs, similar to his own except one could see that hers was more feminine in design as it highlighted her body more.

Her eyes lit up as he came into view, her tail was swishing back and forth as he intertwined their fingers together once he was close before the two went to look for a spot they could unfold their sleeping bag.

Finding a spot which was mostly empty near one of the windows, Naruto and Tamamo made their way towards there, ignoring the whispers and looks sent their way as they walked past other students who where there.

Such foolishness, no doubt if they knew just who he was they would likely suck up to him as opposed to whispering behind his back like they were currently doing. A quick glance at Tamamo to his side and he could see her carefree smile as she seemed unbothered by some of the comments that she could no doubt overhear with her enhanced hearing. Nonetheless, he held her just a tad bit closer to make sure he would be there for her.

Arriving at the spot they had picked out, the two began to roll out their respective sleeping bags and placed them next to each other. A frown marred both their faces as they looked at the end result before they shared a look and then nodded at the same time.

This, this wasn't going to work.

They were used to sleeping in the same bed together. Something they had started to do so a little over a year together and the close proximity, the warmth the other gave off, resulted for a well rested sleep every night since then. Also, Tamamo was a cuddler who would often latch on to him in her sleep.

...Not that he minded such.

Seeing how everyone was still active with the lights still on, Naruto laid himself down on top of his sleeping bag, resting an arm behind his head as there was a lack of neck support due to the absence of pillows. Soon thereafter a familiar weight settled on his body and a quick glance down confirmed what he expected.

Tamamo had laid herself on top of him, her head resting on his chest. Her ears were tickling his neck when they would twitch every now and then when a loud sound reacher her.

''Hey Naru?''

''Hm?'' Came his response as he saw Tamamo move and place her chin on his chest and stare at him. Her bushy tail that came from underneath her night robe was gently waving from side to side and he had the urge to reach out and pet the furry appendage.

''I feel like we're being watched.''

''Well, i'm pretty sure we are. At least by more than one though i get what you mean. It feels a bit… different compared to usual.''

They were right in their assumption as not too far away from them and with a clear, unobstructed view of the pair, amber eyes were busy staring at the two from above the book she had out. A mixture of confusion along with suspicion glinted in those orbs as the owner of the pair of eyes was paying more attention to the couple than the book in their hands.

''He~llo!'' Her attention shifted and she watched a blonde walk towards her, dragging a younger girl with her who clearly struggled against her hold. ''I believe you two may.. know each other?'' The blonde nudged her head to the younger girl who had her back turned towards them after freeing herself.

She sighed inwardly as they were positioned such that she could no longer see the couple she had been stealing glances towards. ''Mh? Aren't you the girl that exploded?'' She questioned as she looked at the younger girl and remembering her interactions with the Schnee heiress earlier today.

Upon hearing that, the younger girl turned around and laughed awkwardly. ''Uhm yeah.. my name's Ruby,'' She held out her hand for her to shake which was ignored by the raven haired girl who had her eyes buried in her book and she retracted her own arm and moved to scratch the back of her head. ''But uh, you can call me crater.. ahaha, actually just call me Ruby.''

''...Okay.'' Came her reply even as she still not looked up from her book.

''So.. I'm Yang and this here is my little sister, Ruby.'' No reply. ''Uhm.. Nice night don't you think?''

''Yes.'' Came the drawled out response. ''It's.. lovely. Almost as lovely as this book. That i will continue to read… As soon as you leave.'' She gave the one last hard stare before returning her attention back to her book.

''This is a lost cause.'' Yang told Ruby with a shake of her head.

Ignoring her sister, Ruby addressed the ravenette. ''What's it about? The book i mean.''

Looking at the younger girl she weight in the pros and cons whether she should tell her not before deciding it couldn't hurt and perhaps they'd leave her alone after that. ''It's about a man with two souls, each fighting for control over his body.''

''Interesting?'' Yang mused though she didn't quite believe herself when she said it.

Ruby took a step forward, ignoring her older sister who seemed to not care. ''I love books. Yang used to read to me every night before bed. Stories about heroes, monsters. It's one of the reasons i wanted to become a huntress.''

''Oh?'' The ravenette raised an eyebrow. ''And why is that? Hoping you will live happily ever after?''

''Mhm, i'm hoping we all will. That's what we are here for, right? Fighting for what's right and protecting those in need, those who can't protect themselves.''

''That's.. very ambitious for a child. Unfortunately the real world isn't the same as one of those fairy tales.''

''Well, but, that's what we are here for right? To make it better. Ghrk!'' The air left Ruby's lungs as she was lifted up and pulled into a tight embrace by Yang. ''C-Cut it out!'' She demanded as she struggled in her hold.

''What in the world is going on over here!'' A new voice spoke up, causing the two sisters to pause. ''Aren't you realizing some of us are trying to sleep!''

As the two sister began arguing with the Schnee from earlier today, the young raven haired woman paused her reading and watched as they started to yell at another while she sighed. 'How dull.'


''Mhmm, stop Mae~.'' Naruto chided playfully as he felt her lightly scrape her sharper than average canines against his neck. They were currently cuddled up against each other after having managed to squeeze her in the sleeping bag with him.

They were lying side to side with her fluffy tail wrapped around him, the top sticking out of the sleeping bag. It was nice and warm though as he held her close. He cupped her cheek with one of his hands as she nuzzled into his palm.

''Hihi~.'' Her soft laughter was music to his ears as she leaned forward and for a second or two pressed her lips to his before retracting them.

Naruto ran his tongue over his lips after the quick kiss she initiated before the hand he was cupping her cheek with moved upwards where he began scratching her just behind the ears. Tamamo quickly gained a expression of pleasure and a low rumbling noise originated from her throat.

''I'm surprised we managed to both fit in here. I mean it's a tight squeeze but at the same time not bad at all.'' The increase of noise coming from one side of the room had Naruto slightly move his head to see it came from the same blonde and darker haired girl they had a brief interaction with earlier. Along with what seemed to be the Schnee heiress and some raven haired girl who appeared not wanting to do anything with it.

He did take note however that the ravenette was holding a candle in her hands which coincidentally happened to be the last source of light currently in the room. It didn't take a genius to know what she was about to do and he noticed Tamamo had already fallen asleep due to his ministrations to her ears.

Seconds later the candles were blown out and the room went dark, it was only the moonlight that managed to shine through the windows that prevented the room from becoming too dark to see. Though he guessed any faunus that was present in the room aside from Tamamo wouldn't have that issue due to being able to see without any issues.

How he wished he himself had that ability… Oh well, no time to mull over thoughts such as those. He should really head to sleep as well so he'd be in a mint condition for whatever inition will be happening tomorrow.


End Chapter.

This'll be a crossover between Naruto-Fate-Rwby. I'm currently taking suggestions for who their teammates could be. I have some ideas in mind but wouldn't hurt to see who i might've missed.

Aside from that Naruto's combat outfit is that of Merlin from FGO. His sword is from Fate as well but exactly which will be kept a secret for now. Though it wouldn't be hard to guess honestly..

Anyway, that's all for this chapter. Later~
