Clan Maelstrom

By the Obsidian blade

Naruto/Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced crossover

Pairings Naruto/Ritz/Shara

Disclaimer- I do not own Naruto or Final Fantasy in any way, shape or form. I do own this idea though. If I did own them I would be rich. I like constructive criticism but I will not tolerate being flamed. If you got a problem find a nice way to put it instead of saying that I suck or some other kind of bullshit. If you do flame, well, kiss my shiny white ass and get over it.

Prologue

He stood atop of a large dune staring down the vast desert. His dirty brown cloak flapped in the wind while his spiky blond hair simply swayed. Sand scratched his left metallic shoulder pad as well as his dark sunglasses. His red white tipped fox ears twitched as the winds howled and picked up speed. His similarly tipped foxtail wrapped itself around his waist for protection from the sand. Part of his cloak covered half of his face to help regulate his breathing. He looked around five foot nine, maybe five foot ten.

Four creatures stood in front of him. One resembled a lion. Its red ruffled fur stood on end as it growled, baring its sharp fangs and its yellow slanted eyes showed fires of ferocity that the blonde only saw in people that wanted to kill him. A metallic ring was strapped to the back of its neck with the bottom part being made of leather. Its claws dug into the sandy floor. One of the other creatures structure was more gel like than anything else with blue skin. Its teeth were non-existent while its eyes were blood shot. The third creature was a crimson ball of flames with its hands floating beside it. The last creature had shiny green skin and multiple eyes surrounding its mouth. Its teeth were coated with yellow strands of saliva. Stubby tentacles acted as legs, dragging the large beast through the sand.

"This day just gets better and better doesn't it?" the blond muttered to himself. A black fingerless glove reached for the large katana strapped to his back, revealing what was under his thick cloak. He wore a black leather tank top, black baggy pants with many pockets to contain concealed weapons, a belt holding up a kunai holster on his right hip and a weapons pouch on the back of his hip with black steel toed boots with red accents covering his feet. A deck holster was strapped to his left hip.

The katana itself was magnificent with red runes running down the length of the blade. The blade was thicker, several inches wider and about a half a foot longer than a normal katana. The blade was made out of obsidian and there was no tsuba. Red leather was wrapped around the hilt for grip.

In a brilliant flash of light the judge appeared in his usual silver armor gleaming in the setting sun was a golden feathered chocobo. "The engagement rules are the following:

No items
No techniques
No color magic

Disobey those rules and you will face the consequences," the judge stated as he guided the chocobo to the sidelines. "Match BEGIN!"

Almost immediately the lion like creature rushed forward with its fangs bared. The blond drew the katana and jumped back, avoiding the pouncing creature only to roll to the left to avoid being burnt by a fireball. The lion-like creature made another lunge at the warrior. The swordsman swatted the creature and made a rush for the floating fireball monster. Said creature inhaled to try and breathe out a fireball at the Kitsune but it was not fast enough. The sword sliced through the creature, knocking it out.

Naruto quickly looked behind him and jumped back. A claw scratched his lenses. He jumped to his right, dodging a stream of ice. Reached for his deck holder, he grabbed a card. The back of the card was black with a four pronged star and a yellow diamond on it. The blond raised the card high. The card floated above his palm. The blonde energetically shouted out, "Nullify 'No techniques'!" The card shattered and sent out a shockwave of energy.

The lion creature made another lunge. The runes on the sword glowed around the blonde's katana as he sliced through the air in a reverse grip. "Slicing Heavenly Sword," the blond shouted as he launched a blade of light from his sword, hitting the red creature head on and knocking it out.

The blue blob like creature started to exhale a steady stream of ice crystals at the Kitsune-like man. He saw this and dodged right but a few of the frosty crystals scratched his arm. The blonde switched the black blade to his left hand, pulled out three kunai and threw them at an insane speed at the blue blob, impaling it. He looked behind him and saw two rows of shiny yellow teeth about to close around him. He brought up his right arm and blocked the bite from eating him whole. The teeth drew blood as they sank into his forearm.

His left hand stabbed the black sword into the sand. A sphere of swirling blue energy formed in his palm. Once it was holding itself well enough he slammed onto the creature with a cry of "RASENGAN!" The creature's jaws loosened their grip on his forearm till they eventually let go.

"Engagement winner, Clan Maelstrom!" the judge yelled as he disappeared in rings of white light. The blond sighed. This had been one fucked up day. He looked at his arm. Thick, scarlet liquid flowed freely from the teeth marks as they quickly healed over. They stung as the skin closed and reconnected. This day fucking sucked a horse's dick.

He reached into one of his pockets and grabbed a small bottle of liquor and pulled the cloak away from his face with gusto. His face had lost all of its baby fat and each cheek sported three whisker marks. He uncorked the bottle and started to drink it. The burning sensation was so very soothing right then. Unfortunately, he had places to be so he corked the bottle, put it back into its pocket, sheathed his katana and readjusted his cloak back into its original position before he looked at the setting sun. "Please be safe guys," he muttered before he walked off towards the sun. This was just not his day.

A/N: This is just a prologue to what is going to happen. This will most likely be my main focus because I can think more clearly on this one and I have not lost my copy of it. Please read and review and I hope you guys like this story. I will still try and post Soldier of Gems. Review or I feed you to the Divine Dragon.
