Hey everyone, this is HazardGirl. Welcome to Son and Heir, the first story I've ever written on this site. It may be a little fast-paced but my brother thinks it's good, so that has to count for something. Well, on with the story!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Bleach. Nor do I want to. Really, I'm no artist so I wouldn't be able to do that stuff.

Naruto closed his eyes as he felt death coming for him.

"That's it? You're just gonna give up?" Kyuubi asked.

Naruto sighed tiredly. 'I have no reason to live. They never truly cared about me anyway. They only pretended,' Naruto thought to her.

"Your sensei's, Jiraya, Sakura, Neji, Lee, Tenten, Konohamaru, Shikamaru, Choji, Shino, Hinata, Gaara, Tsunade, Shizune, and others, they cared about you. I could feel it," Kyuubi said.

Naruto smiled. "That's nice, I hope they live good lives," he thought.

"You really are giving up," Kyuubi said in disbelief. Naruto mentally nodded.

He died and his spirit floated out of his body. Somebody was waiting for him.

"Who are you? I am dead, right?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, you are dead, and I am Reio. I have come to take you to my palace," the person said.

"Why?" Naruto asked.

"Because I have chosen you as my heir and you need to be trained," Reio said.

"Chosen me? And trained in what?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, I have chosen you as my heir. And trained in Zanjutsu, Hoho, Kido, and other things. You will be trained as a Shinigami, like me and my squad Zero," Reio said

"Should I call you Father?" Naruto asked.

That would be nice," Reio said.

"Very well then. I agree, Father," Naruto said.

"Then let us go," Reio said and he transported them to his palace.

Naruto looked around them. They were on a floating island with six other islands around it. There were six people waiting for them.

"Oh- Metsu, Naruto here needs an Atsuchi!" Reio said.

A man with sunglasses nodded. "Come with me, Naruto," he said and he proceeded to bring Naruto to his palace and give him an Atsuchi.

"This is your partner, a part of your soul. Your Zanpakto resides in your heart. Do you understand?" Oh-Metsu asked.

Naruto nodded. "I will treat them well," He promised.

Oh-Metsu nodded and they went back to Reio's palace.

"Your training begins now, Naruto," Reio said. Naruto nodded.

And that's that. I hope you enjoyed the beginning. The second chapter may come out tomorrow or next month. Don't know which yet. Please review and only helpful criticism. Also, I am in need of a Beta. Please help me!
