Prologue
Another day another miserable school's life
That was Taylor thought as she held back sigh and trying her best to not look so miserable while walking to her class. Even now she can hear few students stop from their chatting and jeering at her presence, they maybe not as bad as the trio but it doesn't mean they still good
It still can be considered as light compared before the locker incident
Apparently that incident seems too vicious for their taste -and vicious not even enough to describe it in her opinion- so they decide to at least stop teasing her that much
The point is, it is bad, yes but they no longer try to so blatantly bother her now, they only throw insult and ugly words -and some even actually give her pitying look- but they never try to touch or harm her directly
Save for the trio
Emma Barnes, Sophia Hess, and Madison Clement
Just remembering them -especially the first two- enough to make her flinch visibly
She didn't care too much about Madison Clement, she is more like follower, Emma Barnes and Sophia Hess meanwhile is the head of her torturer.
The former is the worse, she was her friend, not just friend but best friend, BFF, her mother even said they look like sister and family to each other in all but blood, and both of them in past also agree that they are like family, that they are best friend
Until the summer camp and Sophia Hess happened
Life turned to Bitch for her
Especially that incident
She shuddered, even remembering it now it still give her chill. The disgusting smell of rotten stuff that almost make her vomit, the sensation of having bugs crawled around her skin, biting and scratching every single part of very body
'Easy, easy! They can't harm me anymore. They can't harm me anymore.'
She take few deep breath to calm herself, trying her best to putting down the bile that threatened to rose to her throat. The bugs no longer going to harm her, they no longer going to injure her, no, they are hers now, they are under her rule now, and they will never, ever touch her in ill manner anymore
Not with power that she have now
BUMP!
She broke out from her thought when she feel herself bumped against something hard, almost like a wall and send her down to the ground with yelp and make the content of her bags sprawled to the ground
"Ah, sorry about that." A masculine voice come from above her
Taylor fix her glasses that almost fall and shook her head "No, no, it is my-" She trailed when her eyes tilted up and found the 'wall' she just crash
It was a man, and she never seen him before in this school because by God, there is no way someone as good looking as him not famous in Winslow!
His hair was blond, sun-kissed blond, spiky, wild and untamed, a bit long but not long enough. He stood tall about 5,9 feet, having fair skin and wearing sunglasses that conceal his eyes, he clad in light blue cardigan that topped white shirt with one button opened and a black tie with gray strip. He also wore a long a white cream colored long pants along with black shoes while carrying bag over his shoulder
And he is handsome. Dear God, maybe not to level of 'Oh my God he is so hot! I will let him do anything to me!' level of hot but still hot regardless. He... He look like Asian, but at same time not, there mixture of western... She did not recognize it though and...
'Is that whiskers on his cheeks?' She thought as she staring at the three pair of lines that adorning her face
"Here." He offer her a hand with small grin
"A-Ah! Y-Yes." She feel heat warming to her cheeks as she took the offered hand and allow herself to be pulled by him. And wow, he have strong grip, strong but not pressuring "T-Thanks."
"No problem." He replied with grin "It kind of my fault, I'm not watching where I was going. I'm reading this thing." He informed while waving the paper he hold
"N-No, it's fine." She shook her head, inwardly cursing for stuttering "I also not looking to where I'm going myself."
"Well, let's just agree it was both our fault." He chuckled in good-nature manner "I am Naruto by the way." He introduced himself while extending hand once again
"... Taylor." She said as she took his hand shyly, Gods this is the first time that some hottie talk with her like this
"Well Taylor it is nice to meet you, by the way can I ask you some help?" He raise the paper he hold "You see, I am new in here, just transferred today and I searching for teacher office but I kinda lost."
Well... That explain why someone as good looking as him not known in school until now, he is new student
"Sure." She nodded meekly "It is on the second floor, just walk to there, you will find stairs, go up and take left turn, just keep going and you will see the sign." She instructed while pointing to certain direction
"I see." He nodded in understanding while looking where she pointing before glance back at her and give her another grin "Thanks Taylor! I owe you one, if there is something you want to ask to me just said it in future 'kay?"
"Eh? No, no, no. You don't have to." She begin to make attempt to refuse, it wasn't big deal after all
"I insist, all help -even if it small- is always useful." Naruto chuckled "Anyway, I will go to teacher office, taking care of stuff and else, see you later Taylor."
"Oh, yes! See you later!"
She waved at him and he wave back. She can feel there stupid grin now crossed her face under her book
It only lasted for few seconds though, until he out from her sight, and what happened dawned to her in instant
Her silly grin replaced by concern
A new student... A new student in Winslow.. Winslow, a fucking school that known for having gangs and bullies as their students, a fucking school that barely have peace for every. Single. Day
Either that guy economic was very bad to transfer here or he is gang member
She more think it was the latter though. While Winslow is indeed not very high-class school but in term of faculty it wasn't that bad, though it can be considered cheap -one of the reasons why she in here actually.
Not to mention that guy also seems not look poor, the way he dress and presence himself... There is this some kind of charismatic presence about him so no, he not poor
Gang member? Well, his blond spiky hair seems good enough for that, it doesn't look natural but it also too good for result of dyed
She let out sigh, why does it matter to her anyway? She admit it was kind of nice to have hot guy kind and talk to her, for moment she really enjoy it -she still teenager after all, and woman at that- but it not like he going to bother her anymore in future, after he settle himself in here, she sure as Hell he going to ignore her like all those 'popular' students that not allegiance themselves to Emma
Worse he can be the next bully for her... He's handsome and look like someone who in top place, she sure as hell Emma will approach him and...
She hope it will not come to that, she truly is, her school life already miserable enough after all, can it get better instead worse for once?
...
Ah, who's she talking about, she is Taylor Hebert, of course things can get worse for her! Fate herself is truly set against her after all this far
Unknown to her that this one person is the same one who have stand in front of Fate and spit on her delicate face
Thankfully the first class for today is Computer Class, Mrs Gladys or Mrs Knott's class
The Computer Class is one of her favorite class, at least in there Emma and her cronies can't do much, Mrs Knott is... The fairest teacher in this school, she never let a direct bully happen in front of her, even the three of them never did anything in her class
A little snipe and snide comment in here and there, but it never got bad, not under her watchful eyes
If only all teacher in this school like her... Hell! Not all of them, just one or two is fine!
"Alright class!" Mrs Knott voice broke her from her inner rant "Enough chit-chat and be quite." She stated "Now I have news to you all before we started this class." She paused and let her words sink "There will be new student in here."
Taylor perked up in instant, new student? She just met one moment ago, could it be...
"A new student?"
"Could it be a girl?"
"Hopefully she's hot!"
"It might be a boy! Hope he's cute."
"Class! Class!" Mrs Knott clap her hands and subduing the students whispers and murmur "Behave, you all not fice years old children." She admonished with glare "Now I want all of you to stay reserved alright?" Mrs Knott continued before turned to the door "You may come in."
The door opened
And Taylor meet with familiar face
"Wow, not bad!"
"He's cute!"
"Is that whiskers mark in his face?"
Naruto did nothing but smile and keep his foxy grin in his face under everyone words, he look amused as matter of fact
"Class! Class!" Mrs Knott clapped her hands again, she look irritated this time "Let Mr..." She briefly glanced to the paper she hold "Uzumaki introduce himself." She then read the data fullest before she blinked, once, twice "Mr Uzumaki?"
"Yes?" He asked
"... You sure this data about yours? I mean, you want to..."
Naruto tilt his head and shrugged, he shift his sunglasses and give small grin "I'm not one who care about that, the Principal already informed."
Mrs Knott look unsure for moment before she give tentative nod "If you think so then... You may introduce yourself."
Naruto nodded and turn back to the students "Name Naruto N. Uzumaki, and to you who know Japanese, it mean Maelstorm not Fishcake, I'm going to kick you in groin if you call me that." He said with glare at those who Asian "Age sixteen. Favorite food ramen. My hobby is pulling pranks and watering plants. My dislike is ghost, bully, prick, and waiting three minute for Instant Ramen." He listed to them, then he turned around, raising one foot and-
And walk straight to the wall
Every students gasped, Taylor herself included, her eyes glued to the blond that defying the gravity and now walking, walking straight in wall in horizontal manner as if it was floor
He keep walking like there's nothing wrong with what he did before he stopped when he reach the celling and staring down at them from top. His grin look like one that belong to fox, clearly amused by the shocked faces of his fellow student
After that, he kick the celling off -eliciting another gasps from students by doing that- and he flipping himself once in air before landed perfectly in floor once again
"And I'm a Super." He finished
The result is predictable
The class explode into chaos
"Holy shit a cape?!"
"A friccking cape?!"
"Real one?!"
"A cape in here?!"
"Coool!"
Murmur of awe and excitement spread to the class, every eyes practically glued to Naruto who only grinned at them, basking in attention
"Class! Class! Class!" This time Mrs Knott forced to knock the table using her book to silence them since clapping apparently no longer enough. As they all slowly subdued and become silent, she glared at them "One more time like that and there will be extra homework!" She threatened, this making the students groaned "Seriously, you all already close to reach adult age, not a kindergarden children, behave." She shake her head and sighed "Now you all can go ask Mr Uzumaki question, one by one, and make it quick, we have class after all."
A numerous hands quickly shoot to the sky, both male and female students
Naruto tilt his head a bit and pointed to one of them "You, yes, you. What do you want to ask?"
It was female student with black hair "What your power?"
"Well... You can say I have multiple powers." He answered with shrug "I'm a Grab-bag Cape, I can move fast, hit strong, etc, etc. Next question."
"Where you come from?"
"San Fransisco, come here with my adopted sister. Next."
"Why you come here?"
"Heard and read a lot of interesting things about Brockton so decide to pay visit. Next."
"Are you a Hero or Villain?"
He stared at the skinny boy that questioning him "I'm Villain and I will suck every single of your souls." He spoke in flat voice
The class broke into laugh at the joke
"If I'm Villain why the hell I bother to out myself in school? No, I'm Independant Hero, you can check on me in PHO, I didn't do much in San Fransisco though. It peaceful city after all. Next."
"Are you going to join Ward?"
"Nope, don't feels like it. Too many restriction for me. Next."
"Are you single?"
Naruto lips curled into dry smile "I'm not in relationship or searching for one right now."
There "aww" of disappointment come from few female students at that
"Alright that is enough questions." Mrs Knott chimed in "You all can ask Mr Uzumaki later when the class over." She turned to the blond "You can take your seat Mr Uzumaki."
"Sure."
Naruto nodded before glancing at the class, searching for empty seat
Taylor stiffened when the whiskered blond face snapped at her, her eyes momentarily drifted to her side and she finally notice there empty seat near her
'He wouldn't!'
He did
The blond grin as matter of fact seems widened when he saw her and he begin to walk to her direction with everyone eyes locked at him, it wasn't long before he reach her and he sit on her side
"Hello Taylor! We meet again!"
Taylor feel every eyes now shifted to her, she practically can tell Emma who have same class at her gaped at the blond greeting
"H-Hi Naruto." She greeted back nervously
It was at that day that Taylor Hebert destiny change
A new story WormxNaruto crossover. I'm actually surprised to see there so small of this crossover, considering almost all supernatural-related have quite a lot of Naruto element
Well, not like I care much anyway.
This story is a... Side project actually. Each chapter won't be long, it probably only going to be around 2K or 5K, max would be 10K or less
I will be blunt, I don't know much about Wormverse, all my information and source is come from Fanfiction, like Scion the Hero is actually Eldritch Abomination that in the end going stray and responsible for death of million people or such things
So I really going to need help in future. For now I label this story as AU since I still need to learn more about Wormverse and things probably going to stray from Canon in future
Hmmm, I guess there is nothing much I can say since this is only Prologue. Next chapter will be more about Naruto of course and see how he interact with other
Ja Ne! XD
P.S : I need Beta, you all obviously notice how bad my grammar is right now and if you interested please PM me
