Flashback
It was a cold and a wintering night; the full moon could be seen in all it's glorying up in the sky. You could hear a newborn baby crying in need for his parents. He was lying on the cold hard floor with in a little basket stoping the cold temperatures from reaching his small body. The boy had spiky blond hair, three whiskers on each chick and blue eyes like a cerulean ocean. There was a name of 'Naruto' sewed onto the basket .
Not too far from there, a man by the name of Geoffrey Ironspear and his wife Julianne were returning from a journey. Geoffrey was a tall man in his mid-twenties with black hair, a beard, and eyes as the same colour as his hair. He was wearing knight armor with a silver fist as a symbol on the chest with two swords strapped to his hips. The horse he was on also had the same type of armor he was wearing. His wife, Julianne(who was on the horse with him) was a beautiful woman in her early twenties in a nice dress with long brown hair tied into a ponytail. The two of them were returning from a very important celebration, both of them were talking to each other(you could see the happiness on their faces).
Suddenly they heard the cry of the blond infant; the black haired man took off with one of his swords in hand and told his wife to wait. The man looked for the source of the cries and found a baby but nobody else was there. He sheathed his sword and lifted the baby from the ground. Returning to Julianne he showed her the baby, the woman's eyes softened at the sight of the infant.
"Hey there little guy" she said while extending her arms to grab the baby.
"Where are his parents?" she aked.
"He was alone on the floor in a basket, the odd thing is there sewed name on his basket. It said Na-ru-to" the man said trying to sound out the assumed name of the blond child.
"What a strange name for a baby, fishcake" he commented.
"Well Naruto-chan would you like to come with us?" Julianne asked the baby who was already sleeping in her arms.
"W-w-wait y-you w-want a-a b-baby now?" the man stuttered.
"Yes I want to take him with us, do you have a problem with that dear?" the brunette asked her husband in a sweet ' I'm going to kill you if you don't agree' kind of smile. The man just sighed.
"It's too soon Julia-chan" he protested.
"Hey don't give me that I have waited 3 years to have a family and this is my only chance" she said with a frown on her face.
"Well I have been a slave for 10 years and I want some liberty, I don't want to have a son right now" He pouted.
"Well then you are going to sleep in the coach for the next month if we don't keep him" she said making his eyes wide as plates
"We will need some diapers, milk oh and a little cradle" he immediately started to think in his loud voice.
"Good" was the only reply from his wife.
"what have I gotten myself into" he thought.
Meanwhile inside the baby's mind
"Hmmm…another world heh? That only did that stupid uchiha fail to stop the sealing but he also sent us to another dimension" said a red eyed demonic fox.

1 year later(Age:1)
"Come on naru chan say papa" Jeff was trying to teach Naruto to talk, while Julia was making supper in the kitchen.
"Paaaaaa" was the reply of the little Naruto.
"paaaaa-paaaaaa" Jeff said while trying to help out Naruto say 'papa.'
"paaaaaa" Naruto said one more time.
2 years later(Age:3)
"Naru-chan time for bed" Jeff said as a little shadow jumped out behind him.
"Neved (Never)!" Naruto hanged from his father head and started to pull on his hair, Julia only laughed at the antics of her little boy.
When the battle was over Naruto was in the bed. His mother and father looked at him pleased that they were able to put him into bed.
"A stody, a stody(A story, a story)!" he exclaimed making Jeff and Julia both chuckled.
"okay Naru-chan but only one, this a story of a group of knights that traveled around the world saving lives. They fought man bad people, they were heroes but no one cheered for them as their saviors and no one thanked them either. They did many sacrifices for the world to make it a better place…" Jeff smiled as he looked at his son, he noticed that the little one was already asleep.
4 years later(Age:7)
"Daddy what's behind that door?" Naruto asked Jeff referring to the door locked with chains wrapped around the lock. The former knight looked at him before answering.
"In that room Naruto is the hidden debt of the family" Jeff answered.
"What do you mean by that dad?" Naruto replied.
"When the time for you to know will come Naru-chan, when that time comes I will tell you. For now I cannot say" the black haired man said in a sad voice, unknown to the two of them a single tear was falling from one of Julianne's eyes.
"One day Naruto you will have to leave your mother and me, what's inside there will be yours on that faithful day" he told his son as the blond just looked at the door
"Come on today I will teach you about magic and our family's styles" Jeff said changing the subject.
2 years later(Age:9)
"Come at me again Naruto!" Jeff yelled as the sound of wood being hit could be heard. In the garden in front of their house Naruto and Jeff were facing each other with two wooden swords in their hands. Naruto was panting from exhaustion; he had some bruises and scratches on his arms.
"Come on dad aren't you feeling tired yet?" Naruto asked with a smirk.
"Heh hardly Naru-chan, but you on the other hand I'm not so sure…" Jeff remarked.
"I'm only just a little tired old man!" Naruto retorted.
"Is that so? Well then let's take a break Naruto" his father said as he sat on the grass, and motioned for his son to do the same.
"When will I be able to beat you dad?" the blond haired boy asked.
"When you are strong enough Naruto" he said chuckling making the blue eyed kid to glare at him.
"Ok then I will get stronger" he said.
"Can I ask why do you want to be stronger then me?" Jeff asked him.
"So I can beat you!" was the fast reply from the blond haired boy.
"Naruto even if you were able to beat me I would still be stronger than you, do you want to know why?" he asked his son, who nodded.
"The reason is because I don't fight to show something, when I fight Naruto I do it for you, your mother and the ones who can't protect themselves. When I fight I give it my all, I honor those who fight with me and the ones who trained me. I have one simple question for you Naruto; why do you want to be strong?" Jeff asked.
1 years later(Age:10)
The family was eating at the table talking about the boy's training. Two years ago Naruto's parents found out that he had an excellent control over wind and surprisingly fire as well. They continued talking when suddenly someone knocked at the door. Naruto looked at his parents, his mother had a terrified look on her face and his father had a very serious expression on his face.
Jeff went to open the door, he stood there as a man told him something and gave him a letter. When the door closed he didn't move at all as he read the letter and he stayed still; suddenly he fell onto his knees and he started to cry from the news. Julianne understood what happened she covered her face as she started to cry, Naruto could only look at them and ponder what the letter said.
"D-dad? Mom? What happened? Why are you.." before he could finish his dad stood up and looked at him.
"It's time for you to know the debt of the family, follow me my son" his father said.
Naruto did what his father told him to do and followed him, they reached the door that was closed with chains. His father took out a key and opened the door, inside the room Naruto saw an armor(the same armor his father wore a long time ago). In front of the armor were two swords that were laying on the floor and next to them was a helmet.
"This my son…is the armor that belongs to the order of the silver fists" he explained to the blond.
"Naruto this armor has been in the family for generations, every 20 years a member of this lineage is taken by the council to serve as a knight. As part of a pact made by our ancestors many years ago, today it is your turn to honor that pact. For 10 years you will serve them, fight for them and even kill for them" he said as Naruto looked at the armor.
"As my father did 20 years ago I will ask you the same question, naruto, do you want to be a knight of the silver fists?" he asked his son slowly.
"I will do it dad; I will fight for you, mom, the ones who can't protect themselves, the ones that will ride by my side and the ones who will continue training me" the blond said with a determined voice making his old man smile with pride.
"Then Naruto son of Geoffrey, kneel" Naruto obeyed his father took out one of the swords in front of the armor and he touched Naruto's shoulder with it.
"Even in the darkest night there will always be light, this light will guide you to many people along the way. It may guide you to evil enemies in this world we live in, use your faith as a shield and your valor as a sword. Valor these lights as your symbol of justice, then unsheathe your swords to strike the darkness. Seek out the only ones that speak the truth, now rise as light and rise as a knight of the Silver Fists" Jeff announced to his only son.
At the door was Julia and she was smiling with pride, but she had tears flowing down her face. Being the sister of a fallen knight she knew how important those words were to a knight, after all her brother died in honor for his fellow knights.
"Come with me Naruto, we will help you pack" his mother said with a sad smile; she couldn't believe that this day finally came.
As they were finished packing his father gave Naruto a bag that contained his father's armor and in his other hand were the swords his mother went outside.
"These 2 weapons are Durendal and Almace, they magical swords Naruto. These swords originally belonged to the master of the order; they are alive and can feel what you are feeling in battle. Take care of them Naruto and they will take care of you" Jeff explained to Naruto.
"Durendal is the sword that represents your darkest desires, when you use Durendal it will use the dark part of your heart as its source of power. Almace is the sword that represents your light, when you use Almace it will use the light part of your heart as its source of power. Many knights before me have used only one part because their heart was not peaceful. When you have the right reasons, and power to protect people these two powerful swords will unleash their full potential" Jeff said explaining the sword's powers.
"This armor is very special; it was used in only two occasions. When you have obtain your own liberty in your greatest battle" Jeff added.
"I see but how will I know when to use it" Naruto asked.
"Your heart my son, your heart will tell you" Jeff said while pointing to Naruto's heart.
Naruto smiled at his father, they went outside were two soldiers were waiting. His mother brought a horse for him.
"Take care honey, remember we love you. As long as you can feel the breeze of the west we will always be with you"" she said as she kissed him on the head.
"Mom…Dad, I love you both" he said as he hugged them.
"Remember Naruto a knight should never ride alone" his father told him.
Naruto looked at the soldiers and nodded as he mounted on his horse and approached them. Durendal and Almace were both strapped on his back; they started to ride as he looked to his parents behind him and then to the soldiers again. He sighed and then rode of on his horse with the other 2 soldiers.
"It must be really difficult to leave home at such a young age son" one of soldiers said
"My name is Jonathan but you can call me J If you want" the now known J said.
"I am Nathan young one" the other simply said.
"Ummm where are we going exactly?" the blond asked as they continued on their way.
"First you are going to join the rest of your comrades in the capital where you are going to be trained for 3 years in the use of magic. Your father should have trained you in the art of the sword by now, so you shouldn't have any problem with that. After that you will take missions assigned to you by the council" J said.
The journey was long but enjoyable Naruto learned more about j and Nathan; both of them were knights of the kingdom and they told him stories about their experiences. At first Nathan was a little reserved but after talking a little he started to participate in the story telling. In five days they reached the capital and Naruto was surprised when he saw the city.
"Well here we are kid" J said as they reached a building with two soldiers qt the entrance.
"State your business" one of the entrance soldiers said.
"This is a knight of the Silver Fists, his first orders are to come here and join the others" Nathan replied
"You can go" the soldier emotionlessly said.
When they entered the camp, Naruto saw many kids around his age some were young while others were older than him. J and Nathan went to report to their superiors. All of the kids just looked at him strangely.
"Hi I am Jake Tyler of the dark eagle order" a kid approached him, he had green hair and yellow eyes.
"I am Naruto of the silver fist order" he replied, hearing that many murmurs and whispers started.
"Wow you are the son of Geoffrey Ironspear!" Jake exclaimed/
"Yeah I am, why do you ask?" he confirmed unsure
"Your old man was the leader of the last generation of knights, he is a legend didn't you know?" another kid asked him.
"hmm…this worm is the son of Ironspear?" a black haired kid asked.
"Do you have a problem with that pal" Naruto replied with anger as he tried to draw his swords but only could unsheathe Durendal
"hmm…the silver fist knights always so reckless and stupid" a kid said.
"I am Luke Blackstone of the black dragon order" before the blond could reply a voice was heard.
"Good morning whelps" the voice said all of the kids turned to see a big man with red long red hair
"I said good morning whelps!" the red haired man said.
"Good morning" was the collective response.
"Good morning what!" he yelled again.
"Good morning sir!" they shouted all together correctly this time.
"I am Theo I will be teaching you how to be real knights!" the man said
"From now on every single of you are just worms until you earn my respect!" the man added.
The months passed and Naruto started to miss his home, but that didn't stop him as he trained hard every day and every night. He did this until his body couldn't go on, he formed a friendship with Jake, they didn't have enough rooms so they sent the two of them to the barracks instead. During the nights after finishing his training he used to go out and climb a building, Naruto could feel the breeze of the west on his skin. Tomorrow they had a survival exercise so he went to sleep after finishing his training with Durendal because he couldn't draw Almace yet.
The Next day
Naruto woke up and cleaned himself; he made his bed grabbed Durendal & Almace then left. Waiting outside was Jake, as they reached the building they saw their horses already waiting; some of the others were already there, the weapon Jake used was a bow named Clerant. They mounted their horses and got in line side to side chatting about the training of yesterday.
"Look what we got here" a voice said
"Luke please leave me alone I don't want to fight" the blond said, Luke was on his horse and had his sword Caladbolg.
"What are you afraid of fighting me?" he asked mockingly.
"No frankly I'm not, I know I could beat you any day of the week" the blond answered making Luke glare at him. The black haired boy unsheathe Caladbolg seeing this Naruto drew Durendal but before anything could happen Theo arrived.
"What are you two worms doing!" he exclaimed.
"We were just having a little discussion sir" luke said.
"Ohhh…so you two are friends then?" the redhead said mockingly
"Today our survival exercise will be in pairs and these two gentlemen here just offered to be the first pair" Theo said.
Hearing that Naruto and Luke tried to protest but Theo quickly shut their mouths with a glare. After making the rest of the pairs, with the help of some soldiers they took the young knights into the forest.
"This kids is the forest of hell inside here are giant spiders, bears, tigers and some dark beasts" the instructor explained.
"Your task is to go inside the forest and survive for two days, then be back at the third day all of that tied to your partner" the instructor said ending his instructions.
All the soldiers tied each pair's ankles with chains. After that they released them in the forest. Naruto and the like were walking with frowns on their faces. Suddenly naruto fell in a trap apparently made by their instructors before he could fall Luke grabbed him.
"You're an idiot why didn't you see where you were going!" he shouted at the blond.
"Shut up how could I know that there was a trap there!" naruto also yelled
"You could have fallen too" he added.
"You know what, fuck the rules I'm leaving" Luke took his sword and broke the chain.
"Now we will take out separate ways Ironspear" Luke said as he began to leave.
With that he left, Naruto just shrugged better for him. Two days had passed and Naruto returned to the entrance of the forest, he could only say that the meat of bear wasn't that bad. On his way back he fought spiders bigger than usual. When he arrived he was the last to arrive but he didn't see Luke anywhere.
"Ironspear where is your partner?" one of the soldiers asked.
"He broke the chain and ran away" he answered.
"What…damn it!" the soldier exclaimed.
"Wait Luke didn't arrive?" the blond asked
"No and this is bad, the reason we chose these 3 days for your survival exercise was because it was the time when the female spiders lay their eggs. Each day that passes the bigger ones get closer to the survival exercise area; so by now the bigger ones should have arrived by now" the soldier said as the knights listened on Naruto's conversation with the soldier.
Hearing that the blond took out his sword and headed into the forest, he was going to find Luke and get him the hell out of there. His instructor tried to stop him but the blond kicked him in the leg making him kneel and then punched the soldier in the face knocking him out in the eyes of his comrades.
The blond entered into the forest, it had been about two hours since Naruto first started looking for Luke. He had killed dozens of spiders by now, some which were the size of a horse. He found Luke fighting an spider that was bigger than a horse; the black haired boy had a cut on his left leg, the blood was flowing like a river.
Naruto charged at the spider with Durendal in his hand, channeling his wind magic into the sword. He tried to slash the arachnid but the spider sensed his attack and jumped. The spider had the intention of dodging but the wind magic from the attack killed it, he quickly ran to Luke's side.
"Hey are you okay?" Naruto asked as he ripped a part of his shirt to cover the wound, Luke slapped his hand away not wanting his help.
"What are you doing I didn't ask for you to come back for me" the bleeding boy yelled.
"You are my comrade Luke you will never ride alone" Naruto answered.
"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?" Luke answered back rudely.
"It means as long as I have comrades alive I will always ride with them, I will help them and you are my comrade Luke even if you're an ass" Naruto replied.
Naruto helped Luke walk until they made it out of the forest where Theo, the soldiers and a group of people he never saw were waiting.
"Ironspear! Not only did you and Blackstone disobeyed orders but you attacked an instructor and disobeyed a direct order from your superior. Do you have anything to say in your defence worm?" Theo exclaimed.
"A knight never rides alone" Naruto said before helping Luke reach two soldiers who had some bandages and a first aid kit.
"Well then you will have to be punished" Theo retorted.
"If you want to punish him you will punish me too" Luke said surprising Naruto.
"Me too" jake said the same look as Luke as he took a step forward.
"and me" another student said.
"me too" one more student said.
"and me" one other student said.
Nearly all of the Trainee knights were in front of Naruto.
"You're all crazy brats, all of you will regret this" one of the soldiers exclaimed.
"It doesn't matter what you think because a knight never rides alone" Luke answered.
"hmmmm…you all have all gained my respect, especially you Ironspear" the red headed instructor said to Naruto.
"attention wor… no attention knights! These are the council members and some of the guild masters; You will have to know them, they will be the only ones that know your identity. Aside from them no one will know that you are knights, understood?" Theo explained to the trainees.
"Yes sir!" was the collective response.
"Who are you son?" a little man that was the same height as Naruto asked the blond.
"I'm Naruto Ironspear, knight of the silver fist order" he introduced himself.
"Well I am the guild master of Fairy Tail, Makarov Dreyar. Naruto, tell me what is your dream" he said then asked "?"
"I came to honor a pact between my order and the council, I train to be strong" was his reply
"Oohh and why you want to be strong boy?" the old man asked.
"To protect everything I can with my 2 hands" was Naruto's answer.
Almost 10 years later(Age:19)
In fairy Tail, it was a normal day as a brawl between guild members was happening. A white haired girl was at the counter bored while a brunette was sitting and drinking. In the middle of the guild you could see a pink haired boy being attacked by a black haired one, they were fighting when suddenly a red haired woman entered immediately. As soon as she entered the guild all the disorder became order; the red head glared at them and each one received a punch as punishment, she then walked up to the counter.
"You shouldn't drink so much Cana" she said.
"Why not, life is just so short" was the excuse from the newly named Cana.
"Erza" the white haired girl growled.
"Mirajane" was the reply from the red head; everyone went silent as the two of them glared at each other.
"Sister please don't pick a fight with Erza, your knight might return soon" another white haired girl said to Mirajane.
"Oh but my knight is so much better than hers" Erza said with a smirk.
"First of all he is not my knight and second of all he is not your knight. I am just grateful that he saved me in the past "the red head replied to the white haired girl
"You are just jealous that that my knight kissed me, maybe…just maybe the one who saved you and the one who saved Elfman are the one in the same. Mmmm…I can still feel his lips on mine" she said moaning as she squeezing her big breasts together remembering her experience with her knight.
Before Erza could jump Mirajane, the guild master of Fairy Tail entered into the guild.
"Good afternoon mina" a little man said.
"Good afternoon Master" everyone replied happy to see that he was here to stop Erza and Mirajane from fighting.
Everything was fine except for the glares from Fairy Tail's 2 female S-Class mages, Erza and Mirajane. Everything was Normal until a hooded man entered the guild he was tall at least 6 feet tall. He had a black cape, two swords on his back, gloves and a hood of the same color that covered his face. He started to walk in direction.
"Makarov" was all he said
All the members in the guild got up from their chairs preparing for the worst, the first one to act was a pink haired boy but before he could even touch the stranger he was sent flying to some the other guild members. Seeing this Mira and Erza moved in front of the guild master as the others tried to attack the guy.
In a fluid movement the man started to get into action thus hitting all the members and knocking them out. Using his sword as protection for some magical attacks and then he finally almost reached the little man. Erza and Mirajane were ready to attack him with the rest of the guild but before anything could happen the guild master said something
"Stop! Please reveal yourself young man "was the order of the master of fairy tale as the hooded figure brought his hands up and revealed his face some of the girls blushed at his handsome face.
"Yo what's up old man, I thought you said that I was welcome into Fairy Tail anytime I want" he said with a smile.
"Naruto my boy how are you!" Makarov gleefully asked.
