Fire Opal: The Beginning
CH. 1 Gem Glow
Ah what a peaceful day in Beach City, it was calm and quiet and - "NOOOOOOOOOO!" well so much for calm and quiet as the loud scream made everyone in Beach City turn their heads to the source of the noise, the Big Donut, most thought nothing of it except for one man wearing a burnt orange hoodie and black pants who decided to go see what all the noise was about. As he walked down to the small building with a large donut on top of it he couldn't help but wonder what human could scream that loud. Upon arrival to the Big Donut he saw a young child whom he guessed to probably be around the age of twelve walking out with a pink mini-fridge that had a cat head on top of it, 'Huh this just got interesting.' he thought as he decided to help the boy carry the mini-fridge that looked to be almost the same size that he was.
"Hey there little dude you need any help carrying that thing?" The stranger asked.
"Huh? Oh yeah that would be really cool thanks my name is Steven and I am taking this back to the temple where me and the gems live." Steven said.
'Gems? He couldn't possibly mean who I think he means...could he?.' the stranger thought.
"What's your name mister?" Steven asked.
"Well my real name is a secret but you can call me Naruto." Naruto said.
"Nice to meet you Naruto!" Steven said super happy about making a new friend.
"Nice to meet you to Steven." And with that the two continued their walk in silence, well except for Steven humming the cookie cat jingle.
At the temple
"So this is where you live Steven?" Naruto asked.
"Uh huh me and the rest of the gems, oh you should meet them!" Steven said super excited again. Steven then opened the door. "Hey guys guess-" he was interrupted as a black and green centipeetle gem monster attacked him. It was then caught by a whip with purple stones on it.
"Sup Steven?" Said Amethyst.
Steven looks around seeing more of the centipeetles and is immediately awestruck as the gems proceed to take them down. Until Amethyst pops the one she had yanked off of Steven and notices something.
"Hey guys these things don't have gems."
"That means there is a mother nearby making all of these." Replies Garnet as she punches one in the face without looking at it.
"Oh can I help?!" Steven asked excitedly.
"Sorry Steven but until you get control of your gym powers then you will have to leave defending the Earth to us." Said Pearl as she snaps one of the monsters necks.
"Aww, oh wait that's right so guys really quick two things happened today the first one is sad the discontinued cookie cat but the second one is cool I made a new friend and I brought him here to meet you his name is Naruto and-" Steven gets interrupted by Naruto who places a hand on his shoulder as he looked at the gems.
"So it really is you guys huh never thought I would get to see you guys again." Naruto said as he looked at the gems. "It's been a long time guys." He says as he takes his hood off, "But surely you haven't forgotten about me right?"
Once the gems see his face Garnet and Pearl gasp in shock
"Fire is that really you?" Pearl asked.
"That's right Pearl I'm back." Naruto says
"But we thought you were shattered during the war."
"Let's just say that one of the enemies had managed to knock me out into the ocean when I wasn't paying attention I got poofed and when I got up I was in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and since then I've been wandering around the Earth trying to figure out where you guys all where and well I had all but given up hope this is the only city I had yet to check I wouldn't have even found you guys had it not been for Steven yelling when he found out that that ice cream treat of his was discontinued and me going over to check out who could have possibly yelled that loud, now then normally I would wait for Rose before I ask for a debriefing but I'm way to curious so could you guys fill me in on everything that I missed really quick the brief version will be fine for now I'll get the long boring story from Rose when she gets back from whatever she is doing." Naruto explained. And so the gems, after telling Steven to wait outside, began to explain everything that had happened in the 5+ thousand years that he had been gone from the outcome of the war up to who and what Steven is.
"And that's about all there is to it." Pearl said after finishing her explanation.
"Damn I missed so much well I'm here now and will do everything I can to help I'll start out with Steven's training because while Rose might have lead you and Bismuth might have made your weapons I am the one who trained all of you."
"Wait wait wait you trained Garnet and Pearl?" Amethyst asked in disbelief.
"That's right and you know what since I wasn't around to do it I will train you as well as Steven, oh man this is going to be so much fun also Garnet and Pearl I'm going to be doing a test to make sure you two haven't been slacking off in my absence. Now then get Steven in here I'll start figuring out what he needs to train in while you guys go find the corrupted mother." Naruto said leaving no room for argument. So the gems went to go bring in Steven, after they did they showed him the surprise they had for him which was a fridge full of cookie cats. And after doing the jingle one more time and taking a bite out of the cookie cat his gem began to glow until he got to excited and the glow died down.
"Wait what happened why couldn't I summon my weapon?" Steven asked very disappointed.
"Well we believe that 'Naruto' over there can help you." Pearl said.
"Wait how will he be able to help me also how is it that he knew about you guys already?" Steven asked just now remembering that Naruto and the gems seem to know each other.
"Well Steven allow me to properly introduce myself you see while I go by the name of Naruto these days I used to be known as Fire Opal granted most people just called me fire." He said as he took off his jacket to reveal an orange sleeveless shirt with a star on the chest and a fire opal gem on his right shoulder. "And I am the former trainer of the Crystal Gems." He said.
"Woah that is so cool so will you be able to teach me how to summon my weapon?" Steven asked bouncing with excitement.
"Yep and I'm going to teach you about any abilities you might have I myself have 9 abilities and then my weapon." He said as his gym glowed and he pulled out a pure orange katana. "This is my weapon Kurama along with him I have the ability to manipulate sand, fire, water, and lava, I can run really fast, I can spit acid, I can fly, I am unable to be poofed, and I can heal others." Naruto said and by the end Steven's eyes had stars in them.
"That is so cool! Oh oh what can I do?" Steven asked excited to start training.
"Well from what I just saw I have a few hypothesis and we shall start testing them all-" Naruto was interrupted by the temple shaking, and a large shadow appearing from outside the temple.
"It's the mother!" Garnet said as she ran outside along with the other gems. The gems were quickly over powered by the giant Centipeetle as it sprayed acid at them giving them no time to summon their weapons. They then saw Naruto exit the temple.
*sigh* "You guys really haven't been keeping up with your training," he said as he summoned his katana again then with a quick burst of speed he was in front of the gems and as he dismissed his weapon the giant mother poofed. "If you had your reaction time would've been a lot better. I'm disappointed in you guys." Naruto said looking at them bored. Garnet and Pearl had the decency to look ashamed while Amethyst was with Steven talking about how amazing that was.
