Naruto: The Red Mage Ninja
(Unedited version)
Dragonblade00:This is my second story written by myself this time. This is a Naruto/FF series crossover. Naruto will be smart and strong, but not too strong (for now). Also, this chapter, along with any of my stories, will be short unless I took a long ass time writing every possible detail in to it like my third story I am working on.
Also, someone (not naming who) PM me and asked, "What is a OJ?" The answer is original jutsu.
My grammar is going to be rechecked and fix on a later date. The Beta I had quit due to family matters.

Red Mage-Classified as a jack-of-all trade and a master of none.
But there are exceptions such as Cloud, Terra, Scott, Celes, Lightning, and majority of the FFVII&VIII&XII characters. Because they use all magic spells and have great fighting abilities. They are exceptions to the red mage of being a jack-of-all trades rules, so Naruto will too. Spell abilities and weapons will be a mixture of all the Final Fantasy series.
This story has one of FFwatcherdog weapons, who wanted something in my first story I could not put in. It will be in this story along with other things and abilities from the Square Enix company.

Chapter 1: The Woman cloaked in Red
In the peaceful village of Konoha, everything was quiet and everyone was preparing for a festival. This peace was shattered by loud shouts of, "Kill the Demon".
Naruto Uzumaki, and unknown Namikaze, was in a crisis. This six year old academy student with short, had spiky blonde hair, wide blue eyes and tanned skin, who's face was marred only by three whisker-like birthmarks was in extreme danger.
He knew that today, October 10, was another festival celebrating the death of the Kyuubi no Kitsune, his birthday and the day when he was beaten and called a demon by both shinobi and civilians. On his way home, leaping and ducking through the streets and rooftops, Naruto was being held back at the academy by a teacher that wanted Naruto dead. When Naruto left he could hear the shinobi and the civilians searching for him.
Naruto quickly dove behind some trash-cans, dodging a group of armed civilians, he began to cry to himself, "Why do they do this to me every year? Why me?" That's when he heard a shinobi near him shout, "Over here, the damn demon's over here! Kill it!"
Naruto quickly dashed pass the shinobi and right into the three masked shinobi. Naruto recognized them as ANBU, but they had that protected him. Because these ANBU had a different symbol on their shoulders of tree roots and the kanji for Ne on their masks. They're always the ones that start the mobs that attacks him. (AN: the ANBU Root division or Ne)
Naruto tried to run, but a kick to the stomach by one of the Ne shinobi sent Naruto flying. Naruto flew back and rammed into the wall by the kick. The crowd that was chasing him heard the noise and quickly found him. As the crowd descended on Naruto with their weapons raised, he heard shouts of, "Kill the demon!" "Let's finish what the Yondaime started."
'Why does this only happen to me?' Thought Naruto as the first kunai came crashing down. The beating had started, cracks of bone, rips of flesh, yells of pain could be heard from the narrow alleyway. Just before Naruto passed out from the pain, he the most painful shout from the crowd, "Kill the Kyuubi."
After a few minutes of beating and stabbing, the Ne shinobi grabbed Naruto's bloody body and dashed toward the forest outside the village as the ANBU and the Hokage himself landed in the same spot that the three Ne shinobi had just left from.
Hizuren Sarutobi, the Sandaime Hokage, looked at the cheerful crowd in front of him who were partying as they yell "kill to demon". "You have broken my law surrounding Naruto," Sarotobi shouted quieting the crowd. "Your punishment will be issued. Inu," a dog masked man step up,"Yes Hokage-sama?" "Go with your team and find Naruto immediately." "Yes, sir" As Inu and two other ANBU jumped to the rooftops, Sarutobi turned to the remaining ANBU and said, "Weasel, arrest them and bring them to Ibiki and Anko, and tell them to show no mercy." The weasel masked ANBU obeyed and quickly arrested the crowd. The crowd left arguing that they were doing a great service for Konoha as the Weasel lead them away.
Sarutobi quickly Shunshin to his office and pulled out his crystal ball and tried searching for Naruto using his telescope jutsu.
----Miles away from Konoha----
A woman cloak in a red cape and hat with a broadsword attach to her waist appeared in a middle of a forest with a great blast of light. On her sword guard was six round gems which two shine green, two shine yellow and the last two shine red. She looked towards her friends' home village and she notices that their life-force was no longer there. She felt sadness flood her until she sensed a familiar presence. 'This life-force I'm sensing as a mixture of theirs, but who are the other three presence around it?' Thought the woman.
The woman hurried to at clearing up ahead and started a silent chant the bent the light around her until she invisible to those coming her way.
She could hear the conversation they were saying. What they said about the boy made her truly pissed and immediately decided to save the child from his fate. She held out her right hand and channel her mana in her hand. With a mental yell of "Fire," she shot a cannonball size fireball at the approaching shinobi.
-A few minute ago-
As the Ne carried Naruto through the forest, one ask, "How do we dispose of this demon without the Hokage finding out?" The leader, who was carrying Naruto, pulled out a piece of paper and slammed it onto Naruto's forehead. "This seal we received from Danzo-sama will keep the Hokage from using his crystal ball to find us." The Ne who spoke first looked at their leader and said, "We should just kill him befor-," He was cut off as a fireball came out of no where and nearly hit the leading Ne Shinobi.
The shinobi looked, stopped and started scanning the area when they heard someone step into the clearing. The person who stepped out was cloaked in a red cape and a hat hiding the gender of the figure. The figure turned towards the leader of the Ne Shinobi and said, "You will drop that child or die," in a commanding tone. The voice identified her as a female.
The leader looked at the woman in front of him before saying, "Sure, I'll drop him." He grabbed Naruto and threw him into a tree, then the three Shinobi turned toward the woman. "Why do you want to help that demon?" asked one of the Ne shinobi.
The red caped woman looked at the leading shinobi and said in a commanding tone, "His life-force is similar to my friends and judging by your mask and those leaf hitai-ate you three are from Konoha. So why do you harm him and why do you call him a demon?"
The Ne just decided to stay silent after she said that the demon's life-force was familiar to her. No human can sense the life-force of a person unless they go through the Sage training like the Toad Sannin Jiraiya, had undergone. 'She must be another demon! Ha we'll kill her along with the Kyuubi.' Thought the three Ne ANBU as they threw dozens of kunais and shrunkens at the woman, only for her sword to shine and the projectiles to halt in mid-air by a light green barrier when the woman whispered, "Shield".
The woman drew her sword and shouted, "Blind". She disappeared in flashes of light to the Ne. The three Ne shinobi jumped into defensive positions as they tried to clear their eyes of the brightly changing light on their eyes. The woman reappeared in-between them and yelled, "Stop". The Ne shinobi froze as the woman jumped into the air and yelled again, "Banish". The three Ne shinobi disappeared in a blinding white light, never to be seen again.
The woman then turned to Naruto and examined his wounds. He had multiple cut and deep stab wounds all over his body that were rapidly healing. With a short chant, the woman whispered, "Curaga". Naruto's wounds began to disappear, within seconds he was completely healed leaving no scars. The woman was shocked by the amount of scars the boy had as well as how skinny he is. 'What has he been living on?'
She quickly picked Naruto up and took him towards a nearby "cave".
As the woman came closer to the cave, the illusion fell and a three-story mansion appeared. 'Thank Kami-sama that the safe-house still here,' the woman thought as she opened the door and went to the nearest bedroom where she laid Naruto in a bed.
It took half a day for Naruto to wake up. When Naruto adwaken, he notice that he was not in a Konoha Hospital room and the old man wasn't here. Frighten by this, Naruto jumped out of the bed and looked around for the exit but that is when the door opened. There stood a woman around 5'8, dressed in a plain red tank top and black pants. She had mint green hair and sky blue eyes with a mystic aura of power around her.
The woman turned toward Naruto,(who was hiding under his blankets when the door opened), and said in a gentle voice, "Don't worry about me, I'm not here to hurt you. My name is Terra Branford," Naruto slowly got out from under the covers and said. "Umm... m-my name i-is Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto then asked, "Where's Ojii-san?" The lady had a confused look on her face until Naruto said, "Ojii-san is the Hokage of my village, and one day I surpassed him and all the other Hokages. Then everyone will recognize me and respect me. Believe it!"
Terra was interested in what he said, especially his last name, 'So he is Kushina's son, so that should mean he is Minato's son as well.' Thought Terra as she asked, "Why was those shinobi throwing you around and trying to kill you?" Naruto looked away, tears in his eyes, and answered in a whisper, "I don't know, they always beat me at least once a week. They," tears started falling down, "always beat me until Ojii-san comes. But today was my birthday and the day the Kyuubi no Kitsune was kill by the Yondaime." Naruto began telling Terra everything that had happened to him.
When he finished, he fell asleep tired both mentally and emotionally. This was a good thing since Terra was visible enraged by what they did to Naruto. 'When I get to that village, I'm going to torch everyone that hurt him. How dare they harm him.' Thought Terra, 'I noticed he didn't mention his parents. Why didn't the Sandaime tell Naruto his parents names? Minato, Kushina, I will raise Naruto for you.'
It took awhile for her to clam down and remember to cast a ward, so she began a long chant which caused clouds of white smoke to rise from the ground, slowly covering the house. Once the fog completely covered the mansion, it hid their presence from anyone unfamiliar with it before the second illusion, of the cave, re-activated.
-With Inu (An: for those who don't know, it Kakashi) and the two ANBU-
Once Kakashi and his team found the direction of the Ne ANBU, he made several hand-signs and shouted, "Kuchiyose no Jutsu". When the smoke cleared, there was a short brown dog with a Konoha hitai-ate and a short blue cape.
"Pakkun, can you track Naruto's scent?" asked Kakashi, as his team prepared for any possible ambush. "I will, gimme a sec." Pakkun began sniffing around when he caught Naruto's fox-like scent. "His scent goes to the West, along side three other scents," Pakkun said, "Let's go." With that the rescue team turned west and followed the Pakkun.
When they arrived to the clearing where Terra had saved Naruto, Pakkun said, "This is weird, his scent is being masked by some sort of strange energy." Then Pakkun sniffed some more and said. "The three that were carrying Naruto disappeared like they were never here. Hold on, I smell someone very strong leaving this area. Kakashi this sent is very familiar."
Kakashi signaled the two ANBU to search the area as he searched the spot where Ne's scent disappeared. Pakkun decided to dispel since his services were done.
'Hmm... This feeling I'm getting feels familiar,' thought Kakashi, 'this energy feels like Sensei's team-mate's special power and Pakkun said the scent was familiar as well.'
Kakashi's train of thought was interrupted by the bear masked ANBU. "Kakashi-senpai, how are we gonna find Naruto-san when the trail ends here?" asked the bear masked ANBU who had just come back from searching the West half of the clearing. After a few seconds of debating wether to trust his ANBU comrades, Kakashi said, "I'll continue from here on, you two set up camp," as he jumped in the direction of the faint source of magical energy.
A few minutes of jumping from tree to tree, he saw a cave ahead. As he landed a few meters from the cave, he could tell that the cave was an illusion made by his sensei and his teammate. He felt the magical energy around it stronger and move alive then before. 'So she is here, so why didn't she come to Konoha when the Kyuubi attacked! She could have stop the Kyuubi from killing Sensei, Kushina, and Rin,' Kakashi thought furiously as he took a step forward into the white cloud. Calming himself down, he walked his way through the fog with his Sharingan uncovered.
-Inside the mansion-
The defensive spells around the house sensed Kakashi and warned Terra of his presence. She quickly dressed and re-equipped herself incase the shinobi came to kill Naruto. She quickly hurried down the hall and toward the front door, waiting for the intruder.
-back outside-
Kakashi finally reached the door as the illusion around him dropped. Instead of a cave being in-front of him, there was a large mansion covered with magical energy. Kakashi went closer to the front door, prepared to jump back if the tenant of the mansion was pissed.
Kakashi raised his hand to knock on the door when it opened, revealing Terra in her red mage robes ready for an attack. But who was surprised was Kakashi as he looked at Terra. 'She had barely aged a day since she left to visit her parents graves,' thought the shocked shinobi.
Terra was also surprised at who was in-front of her and said, "Is that you, Kakashi-kun?"
Her question brought Kakashi out of shock and he replied in a semi-surprised tone, "Y-yes, it is Terra-sama. When did you get back." "A few minutes ago." Kakashi was about to ask how she got here but remembered mission and ask her, "Terra-sama, have you seen three shinobi and a little boy with blond hairk, blue eyes, and whisker marks on his check come through here?"
As soon as Kakashi finished his question he fell to his knee when killer intent, re-enforced by Terra's magic, slam into him. "Oh Kakashi," said Terra in a sweet tone of voice, the same tone Kakashi heard when she promised a lot of pain. "You have a lot of explaining to do."
All Kakashi could do was gulp and pray he was going to survive the night. 'I should have brought Yamato and Yugao with me' thought Kakashi as Terra loomed over him.
Chapter End
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my second story,(first being co-planned by a friend). This story came to me after I had read a few stories of Naruto being a mage. But those stories only have him being a white mage or a black mage. This story came from the thought of Naruto using both of them. But since I still want him to use ninja skill and arts I will have to find away around the MP (magic, mako, mana etc. points). So I was thinking about using charka to power the magic or I will use my original plan which will give him the ability to use magic and jutsus at the same time with two different power sources.
So how was this story, review on how the story is going. Minor flame are acceptable, but none on mistakes I have already addressed.
