I didn't expect a lot of people to read this in one day. I am glad you all like it, and I am sorry I if the chapters are short, I am good with ideas but not stretching them out. So just bare with me, I will make the chapters have at least one thousand words. And thanks for voting.

Chapter Two

Naruto's New Life

"Wow" Naruto said taking in his surroundings, he had appeared in what looked like a run down city, it was sort of good and sort of grimy. The people he had talked to said that he was in district seventy-nine out of eighty. He also learned that the higher the number the worse the place looked.

He could guess that if he headed to the lower numbered districts it would get cleaner and well taken care of. He looked around and everyone seemed to be working hard to make the place somewhat better than it was.

He walked over to a man who was sweeping "Excuse me sir?" he asked "But what is going on?"

The man chuckled "You must be new" he said earning a nod from Naruto "Well the shinigami are coming to look for new recruits"

Naruto nodded smiling "I wonder if I can join?" he asked aloud.

"Well you can ask them but they can be picky if you are not strong enough" the man said pointing down the alleyway.

Naruto looked followed the man's pointing and saw three people, two of them looked like kids.

A girl with raven hair and a strand parted straight down the middle of her face. The other kid was a boy, he had red hair that was tied in a ponytail and a smart ass look on his face..

Naruto smiled as he recognized the person leading them "Soi Fong" he yelled waving his hand.

The woman in question looked at him, her first thought was 'Who is he?' then she remembered, this boy with spiked blond hair, whisker marks on his cheeks and sky blue eyes.

"Naruto" she said walking up to him with the two kids following her "I see you have been fine since I last saw you" she didn't smile it was rare that she ever did.

Naruto nodded "So I hear that the shinigami are looking for recruits?" he asked earning a nod from Soi Fong.

"That is right Naruto" she said calmly "are you interested?"

Naruto nodded "That would be great" he said "are these two also joining the shinigami?"

Soi Fong nodded "Yes" she gestured to the girl "This is Rukia" she said as said girl bowed to Naruto "Nice to meet you" the small girl said politely, if this boy was friends with one of the captains then it would be good to get on his good side.

Naruto nodded as Soi Fong moved to the boy "And this is Renji Abarai" she introduced.

Renji was not as polite as Rukia "Why is he so special as to know you Captain Soi Fong?" he asked hotly.

Naruto got a little angry "What was that you little brat?" he asked as Renji got in his face "You don't look so special, I bet I could whip you with one hand behind my back"

Naruto was full on angry now "I wouldn't need my hands" he replied "I could knock you out with just my feet."

Renji's eye brow twitched, he couldn't take it anymore "Take this!" he yelled throwing a punch at Naruto.

He was met by thin air and the next thing he knew was that he was flying away from the others and landing face first in the dirt.

Naruto was standing behind were Renji had been, his leg standing outstretched. He was smirking.

"See, I told you I didn't need my hands" he said lowering his foot to the side.

Soi Fong was impressed by his speed, it was fast for a normal soul, but then again, Naruto was no normal soul. She could feel that Naruto had a high level spirit pressure.

Rukia was blinking and wiping her eyes, she had seen Renji throw a punch at Naruto and suddenly Naruto had been behind him with Renji flying away.

Naruto sighed "So about me entering?" he asked looking at Soi Fong "How does that work anyway?"

The captain of the second division nodded "Well you are required to join the academy to learn Kido, Hoho, and learn how to gain your Zanpakuto"

Naruto understood, in his years of growing up, he had learned to shut his mouth and listen to what his instructors had to say. He learned quite a lot. But he didn't understand one thing.

"What is a Zanpakuto?" he asked. Soi Fong unsheathed her katana and showed it to Naruto "This is a Zanpakuto, it is a physical manifestation of a shinigami's soul" she explained.

"Then lets get going" Naruto said as Soi Fong nodded.

"Hey hot head, lets go!" Naruto yelled to Renji as they walked off. Renji followed muttering curses under his breath about speed.

Later at the Shinigami Academy.

Naruto was amazed, the place was huge. The roof of the middle of the building as shaped like a pagoda while the rest went left and right outward from the center of the building and branched toward what looked like an entryway. The entire building was surrounded by a wall. Once through the entryway Naruto saw that the building was three stories high with several windows.

Once inside the building he realized the large pagoda like part of the building held an enormous auditorium.

They were told to sit down and wait as the auditorium filled up with students. Soi Fong nodded to them "Enjoy the next six years in the academy" she said and shunpoed away.

Naruto blinked 'She is fast' he thought. He was brought out of his thoughts as an old man with one long beard walked up onto the stage.

"First off I would like to say welcome to the shinigami academy to the new recruits" he said in a loud strong voice "And good luck to the ones who are moving into their new year" he waved his hand and students left but others stayed. Naruto guessed that the ones left were new students.

"My name is Yamamoto-Genryƫsai Shigekuni" he said "And I am the captain of the first division and the commander of all shinigami"

"Now" the old man said "You new students will be here for the next six years" he tapped his staff on the stage and what appeared to be the teachers "These teachers will teach you everything you need to know about being shinigami"

The old man gave a smile "As you know, you will be trained in Kido, Hoho, and Zanjutsu" he looked around "You will now move into the rooms behind me to gain your Zanpakuto"

He moved away as the large curtain moved to the sides behind him showing three doors "Now would three people come to me?" he asked.

Naruto looked around and saw that most of the people looked either afraid or scared. Now Naruto was not one to beat around the bush and he looked at Rukia and Renji "I don't know about you two but I am going" he said jumping up and walking up to Yamamoto.

"I'll go first old man" Naruto said smiling. Said old man smiled at Naruto's boldness "Very we-" he was interrupted as Renji came up holding Rukia by the wrist "We will go too" he said not wanting to be shown up by Naruto.

Yamamoto smiled a little more and the three doors opened, Naruto, Renji, and Rukia walked through their own door.

The doors shut behind them. 'Those three will be good friends in the future' he thought.

It was dark.

That was the first thing Naruto noticed. A red glow suddenly covered him and his surroundings "Hey I know this place" he said smiling as he heard the familiar drip of water.

He was in his mind, he followed the path he knew well and ended up in the large room that held the large cage doors.

The gates were open, that was no surprise to Naruto. He could feel the strange energy he had felt when he met the hollow, Slicer.

"Hey fox!" he yelled and heard an audible growl coming from a door to his right, it glowed with a dark red light. "Huh? That wasn't there before" he said walking up to it. On the surface the words Yin were written on it. Under that word was the word Hollow.

Naruto backed up, he didn't want to deal with another hollow at the moment. He heard something, a soft feminine giggle come from behind him. He turned around and saw another door. This door glowed with a white comforting light.

He saw that this door too had writing. "Yang" he read and under that "Zanpakuto!" he reached for the door nob and yanked it open.

The eighteen year old boy was yanked into a large field and saw the door disappear behind him. He landed on the grass and looked around. He saw a countless number of red rose petals floating through the air high above him and sniffed, the air was filled with the scent of roses.

"This is a nice place hm?" a female voice asked from behind him.

He turned around and was greeted by a beautiful sight. A woman was standing there, she had flame red hair and matching slitted red eyes. She was wearing a light pink kimono that had pictures of roses on them. You could easily tell she had a perfect figure and her skin was flawless.

"Don't stare at me Naruto" she said giggling "You are embarrassing me"

Naruto snapped out of his daze "Sorry" he said rubbing the back of his head "Wait how do you know my name?"

She giggled again "I have been with you since you were born" she said.

"Really?" he asked "Mind if I know your name?"

"Sure" she said happily "It is Shurio Kitsune"

"Nice name" Naruto said smiling, this however seemed to make her extremely happy and she hugged him "You could hear my name?" she asked completely overjoyed.

"Sure, why wouldn't I?" he asked confused.

"Well some shinigami can't hear their Zanpakutou's name the first few times" she said hugging him tighter.

"Oh" he said "I get it, so you are my Zanpakuto?"

"Yes" she said "And if you ever need to use my power, just shout out my name and swing me in a downward motion, ok?"

Naruto nodded "And if you ever want to talk, just think about this place before you go to sleep" she said "It is time for you to go now"

"I guess it is" he said looking at the door that had appeared. He smiled and hugged Shurio "See you later" he said opening the door and walking out.

As the door closed he felt a strange weight on his left side and looked up to see Yamamoto, Rukia, and Renji looking at him "Let us see your Zanpakuto" the old man said stepping up. Naruto nodded and put his hand on the dark red hilt of his blade and drew it from is sheath.

It looked like a normal katana in size and shape, but the color was strange.

Starting from the red hilt, the blade was black with a bright red streak that spiraled up both sides of the blade. Looking at his Zanpakuto, Naruto could not help but smile. He felt comfortable with with the sword in his hand. He could feel the spirit of the blade.

"Well you three should find your dorms and get some rest for tomorrow" Yamamoto said as Naruto sheathed his blade.

The three nodded and waved their goodbyes to the old shinigami before walking off.

Naruto was the first to see it as they walked past doors with names on it "No way" he said running up to a door.

"What is it Naruto?" Rukia asked trying to look over the taller boy's shoulders.

He moved out of the way "We all have the same dorm" he said smiling.

Rukia smiled and opened the door "I call first shower, and I will hit anyone who peeks" she said seeing Renji's look turn perverted and ran off into the bathroom.

Naruto shook his head 'Not much to peek at' he thought smiling 'She is as flat as a board' he laid on the bed to relax.

Tomorrow was the beginning of his new life.


Well there it is. The second chapter, It is longer than the first. The vote will be closed in two days. It gives a lot of people a chance to vote.

Also it has come to my attention that I may have messed up with Soi Fong's name. It should have been SoiFon. But Personally I like Soi Fong a little better, so I am going to keep it that way.
