Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, or Fairy Tail. The only thing I own is the keyboard and computer I am currently using.

Author's Note: I hated how this story started, I didn't know any other way to start it. So sorry, but this chapter and the rest will be better. I am also thinking about writing a Naruto/Bleach Crossover. Enjoy! And I really did appreciate some of the reviews and opinions you guys gave me! Oh and I set up a poll for who he should be with romantically, and there are seven choices! It is on my profile page.

Ok well here are the character ages, just to clear some stuff up

Naruto: 15

Erza: 16

Mirajane: 16

Natsu: 14

Gray: 14

Lisanna: 14

Elfman: 15

Makarov: 86

Laxus: 18

Mystogan: 18

What was this strange feeling Naruto had in his chest? He felt like he didn't belong here, and that he needed to be somewhere else. Yet at the same time, he was happy to be here. In a guild, were he could start anew, and make friends. The making friends part, that wasn't going so well. It had been a month since he arrived at Fairy Tail. He had met Natsu Dragneel, and Gray Fullbuster. Natsu had continuously asked him questions, about how he got in the crater, who he was, and where he was from. The boy didn't seem to understand the term of amnesia. Gray was a good guy. He seemed more level headed than Natsu, but could be rowdier than him when the time came. Mirajane had constantly tried to pick a fight with him, and Naruto just ignored her. Erza, was the worst, she didn't seem to trust him, and was always giving him this analytical eye.

He met Gildarts, and watched him blast Natsu through a wall. The man had left a week ago, on a so-called dangerous 100-year quest. Naruto didn't see the point in these said to be impossible quests. If they were impossible, why make them a job at all?

There were a lot of good people in Fairy Tail, but a handful of them, were quite suspicious of him. Oh well, he'll just ignore it for the time being.

Makarov had taken the role of teaching him. Stating that if he was going to be in a guild, he needed to at least know some magic. Laxus, on a favor form Makarov, had started to teach Naruto Lightning Magic. Naruto had an exceptional grasp in Lightning Magic, which Laxus had praised him for, and then insulted him. He was Laxus after all. Laxus had refused to teach him any of his spells, saying that if he wanted to be a well-known mage someday it shouldn't be from the powers of others.

He was currently riding in a train by himself on a job. It wasn't anything major, just a small delivery job. Makarov had advised him not to take any thing combat-related, as he had just started his training.

" The train is coming to a stop! Here we are in Clover Town!"

Naruto opened his eyes, in relief as his job was almost over. He had picked up the parcel from someone in Magnolia Town, and the delivery was to Clover Town. Clover Town as a small town, that had an overabundance of trees, and it was the place that hosted the annual guild master meetings.

Naruto stepped off the train, and started to walk down the road as he scanned the parcel for any address.

'126 Sava Street' Naruto was already on Sava Street, and with a glance, found he was 3 houses away. Naruto walked up to the house, and knocked on the ornate silver door. After a few moments the door was opened and an elderly man with white hair, and a scruffy goatee walked out.

"How can I help you child?" the man asked with a grandfatherly voice as he rubbed his hands on a red rag.

"Package for you sir, don't know from who."

"Hmm a package?" Naruto handed the man the package and watched with a curious eye as the man hastily tore apart the wrapping, and opened the box. After much digging through, the man pulled something shiny out of the box.

"Ah! At last! My custom-made macarum forged hammer! "

"What's macarum?" Naruto asked.

"Why macarum my dear boy is a metal that specifically absorbs a set amount of magic in the atmosphere, and can be used for many things. For instance, I am a blacksmith, and I produce magic weapons. Perhaps you've heard of my work, Ryer's Magic Creations?"

With a blank expression on his face, Naruto shook his head.

The man seemed to be horrified, and all color drained from his face. " What?! You've NEVER heard of my work!? Nope not acceptable go by my shop in any town one of these days and give them this! It will grant you any item on the house! I simply cannot have the younger generation not knowing of my work!"

Ryer handed Naruto a card that had a dancing man on it. Naruto stored the card in his pocket, and grinned at Ryer.

"Thanks (1)ojiisan! I promise that I'll stop by as soon as I get back to Magnolia." Naruto received his pay for the job, and got on the earliest train, and headed for home.

"Come on Naruto! Stronger! " Laxus yelled as he continued to blast Naruto with lightning bolts.

Naruto hopelessly conjured up a shield of lightning despite Laxus's bombardment of lightning. It was another day of training in the East Forest, and Laxus had insisted that Naruto invent a spell, that would allow him to negate attacks of a stronger mage. All Naruto could do was pointlessly put up a shield time after time, hoping that it would defend him from Laxus's attacks. Sadly, it did not.

As Naruto was blasted back once more by Laxus, he continued to think. 'What is the key here!? I can't block the attack head on, so there has to be another way! There has to be!'

Naruto got up, and prepared to defend himself once more.

"Kaminari no Dangan!" (Thunder Bullets) Laxus stretched out his arms, and launched orbs of lightning towards Naruto, which blasted him into a tree.

Naruto hit the tree with enough force to bounce, and hit the floor. Managing to get onto all fours and spit out blood. After wiping the blood from his mouth Naruto realized something.

'That tree didn't force me back with pure force. If I had kept going, I would've broke through the tree, but instead I bounced off! That's it, the key is bouncing!"

" Ready yet, Naruto!?" Laxus yelled across the field as lightning crackled around him.

"You bet your ass! Now bring it teme!"

"Cocky little shit ain't ya?!" Laxus launched a lightning sphere of lightning from his palm.

Naruto had taken this time to stand up, gather his power. Prepared to deflect his attack, took a deep breath, and closed his eyes. 'Gather all your magic power at your palms. Don't force it, let it flow…..soft…..'

Naruto's eyes snapped open, he thrusted his palms forward, and his shield appeared once more. As soon as Laxus's bolt made contact, a brilliant display of lightning was displayed as sparks flew everywhere from the powerful collision.

'Easier said than done!' Naruto gritted his teeth as he struggled to keep his shield up, and was pushed back while his feet dug through the dirt. He started to focus more on what he was trying to do, make it bounce, and with one final effort, he drew his right hand back, and gathered lightning in his palm, preparing to do it once more. Sweat dripped down Naruto's forehead as he struggled to fend off Laxus's attack with one hand. Ceasing his current defense, Naruto drew back his left hand, and with a roar thrust forward with his right. The collision of lightning shocked Naruto, as soon as his hand came into contact with the lightning bolt, the lightning bolt seemed to cease its attack, before bouncing off and hitting a nearby tree.

" I…..did it. Take that…..Laxus-teme!" Naruto collapsed to the floor in exhaustion.

"Not bad kid. Good job, tomorrow we will work on perfecting that spell, alright?"

" Okay….see you later." Naruto stood up, and gripped his right arm. It felt numb from Laxus's attack, even though it hadn't even hit him. Laxus was obviously a monster in terms of power. Feeling a jolt run through his arm with every step, Naruto walked home very slowly. Naruto had used the month to earn enough money to buy a small house, not anything to expensive, just a plain stone house. It was located in the center of Magnolia, damn did he have quite the walk ahead of him.

' Laxus uses lightning to augment his speed doesn't he? So I should be able to if I just-' Lightning seemed to lightly crackle around him, before increasing in intensity, and before he knew it, Naruto was shrouded in lightning.

He started to run, and with each step he grew increasingly fast. Deciding to experiment, Naruto kneeled, before launching off the floor with such intensity, that the floor beneath him had cracked. Enjoying his newfound ability of using lightning to fly around, Naruto soared through the skies, and flew towards his house.

It wasn't a long before he reached his house, and floated down to the floor, gradually decreasing his power output while he did. Night had already fallen upon Magnolia, so most people were in there homes. Deciding to follow the trend, Naruto walked into his home, into his room, and fell onto his bed and allowed himself to drift off into sleep.

ojiisan: grandfather, or elderly man

Author's Note: If some of you have noticed that Laxus seems to act differently, remember, before the actual Fairy Tail timeline started, I can't remember who, but someone in Fairy Tail said that Laxus wasn't always as mean as he was in X784. Sorry if its short, but I've been really busy this month. My friend was In the hospital, my dad had surgery, and some other personal stuff. I just tried to fire out this chapter as soon as possible to let you guys know I wasn't abandoning this story.

Omake

'Soft and bouncy….soft and bouncy! ' Naruto put his left hand forward and made his shield of lightning appear, prepared to negate the attack. As soon as Laxus's attack hit, it bounced off his shield and hit a nearby tree.

"Good job kid, I'm impressed. You managed to invent a spell in one day. That's not a common gift among mages, especially young little shit heads like you. How'd you make it bounce?"

"Easy! I just thought of something soft and bouncy!"

"Like what?"

"Boobs!"

"BORUTOREIJINGU!" (Raging Bolt) A cry was heard in the distance as a large bolt of lightning soared across the sky and struck the forest.
