Naruto Cross Universe Adventure: Part 2
TeFlyingWolf: Welcome back folks to part 2 of the Naruto Cross Universe Adventure!
Naruto: Quite the mouthful of a name, don't you think?
Wolf: Well, until I come up with a snazzier title, it'll have to do, neh?
Naruto: Whatever. I just want to see if you make good on your promise from last time.
Wolf: Promise?
Naruto: *eye twitch* YES. YOUR PROMISE. THE ONE WHERE YOU SAID THAT I'M NOT DEAD.
Wolf: OH! THAT ONE. Ya, don't worry about that. You'll be fine. *smiles sadistically*
Naruto: That's what I'm worried about. Shall we get on with this then?
Wolf: Gladly. Disclaimer please!
Hinata: The following is a fan fiction. SilverWolf does not own Naruto or Elder Scrolls: Skyrim.
Naruto: Wait! HINATA?! How the hell did you get here?
Hinata: *pokes fingers together* W-well, Naruto-kun. Y-you'd have to ask SilverWolf.
Naruto: (Turns to SilverWolf and sees a sign. Reads out loud) 'I'll explain later, have some quality time with her'. (Sees SilverWolf running away, laughing manically. Naruto's eye starts twitch) SILVERWOLF YOU BASTARD! GET BACK HERE! *Chases after SilverWolf*
Hinata: Do your best, Naruto-kun.
When he woke next, Naruto awoke to the scent of ashes.
His eyes shot open and he sat up, alert and ready to fight anyone. Naruto looked around him and saw nothing but the remains of what he assumed was a village. His body lay in a pile of ashes, from the remains of what he could only assume was once a home. Naruto slowly stood up, making sure not to draw attention to himself, just in case someone happened to be nearby.
It was an odd sensation to him. After being bed ridden for so long, standing was almost alien to him. He had to remind himself of what just happened, no matter how ludicrous it may seem. A cold breeze whipped past Naruto, stealing what warmth he had. It was at that moment that Naruto realized something. He was currently standing in just the same condition as the day he was born. Stark naked.
"REALLY?!" Naruto yelled to the heavens. He just couldn't believe his luck. Not only had Death left out the vital information of how, when, or where she would grant his wish. But she had also transported him to somewhere Naruto had no idea where he was. Oh, AND he was bare as a newborn. And if the weather was any sign, in a burnt down village… on top of a mountain.
Naruto shook his head, but his eyes soon fell upon a backpack near him. It was roughly the same size of backpack he was used to, but it looked more primitive than most he had seen. The pack looked like it was made of leather. The top of the sack was roughly tied closed by a thick cord made from more leather. He sighed and sent up a hopeful prayer to Kami that there was some form of clothing in it. Wouldn't be much of a backpack if it didn't.
Upon a closer look, Naruto realized, it was made from pure leather. Such a thing was rarely seen in the ninja world. Leather, all tho very durable, tended to not hold up for what most ninjas needed in a durable backpack. So to see a backpack made from leather, made Naruto very curious as to where the heck he was.
Naruto proceeded to undo the strap at the top of the sack and he opened it up. The first item his eyes fell upon, was indeed a gift from Kami. He first pulled out a black shirt and shorts, each sewn together from some thick material. No sooner had Naruto put these proper forms of decency on, the icy wintery gust that had mercilessly ripped any form of warmth and comfort from him, immediately lost some of its potency. Naruto was glad to have some form of covering on him, and continued to pull out anything in the sack.
When the contents of the sack lay upon the ground, Naruto took inventory. He had immediately found a set of pants, shoes, and a fur coated jacket. He hastily put those on, just in case mother-nature decided to change the weather from the over cast sky, to a sudden blizzard. New world, new weather. Who knows what could happen? Naruto thought to himself.
The rest of the sack contained a few vials of red liquid, two short swords, and a map. Naruto scanned the inside of the sack once more, just in case he missed something. His hands stumbled upon a small folded sheet of paper. He opened the note and read it aloud.
"Dear Naruto. Sorry for the sudden transportation. Wanted to get started on your wish right away. Hope you find everything in this backpack to be useful. Also, made a note on your map on where to go next." Naruto picked up the map and saw Death's handy work. There were two locations circled in charcoal. One had "You are here" next to it, as well as the name of the town.
"'Helgen'? Never heard of it." Naruto spoke to the ashes. His eyes followed the charcoal marking on the map and saw it was connected to another town that was not far from 'Helgen'. "'Riverwood'? Where in the elemental nations did she send me?" He noticed that next to Riverwood, Death had written "Go here". Naruto shrugged, it's not like I have much of a choice. He attached the short swords to his belt, packed up everything else into the bag and headed off.
He soon found a gate that led out of the ruined town and followed the stone laid path. The path wound uphill for a while and Naruto found that he was enjoying himself. It was the first time in years that he had been able to walk around freely, without the aid of someone or something to support him. He had an odd sense of nostalgia hit him as he left the abandoned town behind. He was taken back to the days of old, back before he was a hokage. Days when he was still green in the gills and wearing a bright orange jumpsuit.
Naruto couldn't help but laugh. He remembered how proud he had been of that jumpsuit, how he had worn it proudly, and marveled at how good of a ninja he had to be if he could hide whilst wearing that jumpsuit. He laughed again, remembering how much of a moron he once was, in his younger days.
He was taken out of his reverie when he felt the presence of several people surrounding him. Naruto looked around and saw nothing at first, but he knew they were well hidden in the trees surrounding the path. Sure enough, one man came out from behind a tree not much farther down the path from Naruto.
The man was roughly the same height of Naruto, but he had a bit of a stringy build to him. Naruto could sense the man was merely a thug, nothing dangerous. Said man was currently wielding a knife, examining its edge, whilst blocking Naruto's way.
"Hand over your gold and anything valuable, and I'll let you go." The thug spoke, not bothering to look up. Naruto scoffed and smiled. Maybe I can have some fun with this guy. Kami knows I've been aching for a fight.
"Gold? Valuables? What are those?" Naruto asked in an innocent, foolish tone. The thug looked up from his knife, irritation clear on his face.
"Ya, VALUABLES. You know, things that are worth some money?" Naruto mentally grinned as the man easily fell for his trap. Oh, this was going to be fun.
"I don't know if anything I have is valuable or not. Maybe your friends can help us? Tho I don't know why their hiding. I'm not that dangerous." Naruto replied, keeping up his innocent act. The thug took a step back in surprise. Obviously, he didn't know who Naruto was and easily underestimated him.
Big mistake.
The people in question came out from hiding, and Naruto got a good look at them for the first time, analyzing each as they appeared. Two of the men appeared to his right. Both looked just like the thug in the road, but they had muscular structures that spoke of strength and well-honed skills in kenjutsu. The smiles on their faces spoke of malice, as well as the swords in their hands. Over eager and probably used to civilians who couldn't fight at all. Cannon Fodder.
The person on his left was furthest from the fray had her bow trained on Naruto's head. Her aim was steady, and she was as still as a statue. She's going to be an issue, if I leave her alone.
The last man, also came from Naruto's right, walked out from behind a tree only a few feet from him. At first, Naruto thought he was a tree moving, but then he got the full size of him. He stood easily over six foot tall, bald, and not an ounce of fat on his giant of a body. A zanbato like weapon was strapped to his back. All in all, had Naruto been anyone else, he might have been intimidated by him. Maybe even scared. But he simply smiled.
"Wow! Are you part giant or something?" Naruto asked. The giant of a man simple smiled from humor, malice at the edges.
"Oh, so you're a joke teller are you?" His bass voice boomed out of his vocal cords.
"Yup! One of the best. I'm Naruto. How about you?" Naruto stuck out his hand, the giant shook it in an iron grip.
"I'm Elric, but people call me 'The Man Cleave'. Come up with something more original next time." Elric replied.
"Elric, shut up." The main thug replied. Naruto turned to him once more. The main thug looked like he was furious. His face was glowing red from fury, his knuckles white from gripping his knife.
"I'm going to ask you, ONE LAST TIME."
"Uh, what was it you were asking again?" Naruto smiled, knowing that would push the man over the edge. And it did.
"THAT'S IT! KILL HIM!" The thug roared and charged Naruto. The other two men barreled at Naruto, each eager to spill first blood. Naruto smiled and gripped Elric's hand hard, and swung him around. The giant's body worked as the perfect club as it collided with the first two men. Naruto let go and all three men went flying.
There was a cacophony of satisfying 'Thwack's as each man's body crashed into a tree, accompanied by the explosive snaps of breaking bones. Elric was the luckiest of the three, his head ramming into a tree, knocking him out instantly.
Naruto turned to the main thug and let loose a devious cheshire like grin. It was the first one he had let loose in years. The thug looked at Naruto, seeing him for what he really was. A demon reborn. The man backpedaled as fast as he could, tripping over himself and dropping his knife. The thug stopped as he remembered something. A smile grew on his face as he faced his last accomplice.
"Maria! Kill him!" The thug shouted, expecting an arrow to pierce Naruto. But it never came. Naruto walked out from the trees, Maria slung over his shoulders. The man looked back to where Naruto stood in the road, grinning in victory. He looked to the other Naruto who had come out of the woods, still there, placing his accomplice's unconscious body gently on the ground. That Naruto soon disappeared in a cloud of smoke, leaving the original Naruto standing in the road. The last thug sat, dumbfounded.
"What are you? A wizard?" He asked. Naruto slowly made his way towards the man, not saying anything.
"WHAT ARE YOU?!" He screamed and octave higher than his normal voice. Naruto lunged for the man, picking him up off his feet. The man choked, shut his eyes, and trying desperately to get out of the iron vise on his neck. He opened his eyes and stared at Naruto, once again, only for his efforts and heart to stop completely. The first thing the thief noticed about Naruto were his cerulean blue eyes and blond hair. A combination that was rare in Skyrim.
But the eyes he now stared into was the complete opposite of those. They were now completely lavender, with grey circles growing outward from the pupil. They reminded the thief of ripples of water in a pond, after throwing a stone in. Even tho they looked peaceful, the amount of KI force emanating from Naruto made the thug break out into a cold sweat. It was at this point, that Naruto decided to reply to the thief's earlier question.
"On the battlefield, I am known as 'The Orange Lightning of Konoha'. I am the living god of assassins. I am the Son of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze. And YOU, my dear thief, are merely practice." Naruto's smile widened as he placed his other palm on the thug's stomach and spoke, "Shinra Tensei." The thief's body was propelled backwards with such force, that he left a permanent imprint on the tree he collided with.
As his limp body fell to the forest floor, Naruto chuckled. Oh how good it felt to have his old strength back. Now he just had to figure out what to do with these thieves.
TeFlyingWolf: And that's a wrap folks! So Naruto, what does it feel like to have the Rinnegan?
Naruto: Feels weird. But somehow, it feels natural.
Wolf: Glad you feel that way Naruto.
Naruto: Tho I have to ask, "Living god of the Shinobi"? What's up with that?
Wolf: Well, a friend suggested the title, and I have to admit that it fits the storyline.
Naruto: What do you mean?
Wolf: Well think about it. You've been alive til you're nearly 100.
Naruto: How the hell did I accomplish that?
Wolf: Same way as Sarutobi did. Being a bad ass and not giving up.
Naruto: But Jiji died when he was 69.
Wolf: True, but that's due to him fighting Orichimaru who was 20 years younger AND the fact that Pedo-sennin used the Edo Tensei to resurrect the first and second hokage. So all in all, Sarutobi died due to Orichimaru being a cheating little snake in the grass.
Naruto: You have a point there.
Wolf: But anyway, back on topic. After the war, you've been alive for 80 years AFTER the war. During all that time, you wouldn't expect yourself to use your Kage Bunshin training method to master the Rinnegan?
Naruto: That makes sense now. But, how did I get them in the first place?
Wolf: That's gonna be explained later.
Naruto: Ah nuts.
Wolf: Don't worry about that Naruto. You have other things to focus on.
Naruto: Such as?
Wolf: Oh, nothing…. Except Hinata wanting to spend quality time with you.
Naruto: Wait, what?
Hinata: NARUTO-KUN! *Tackles Naruto. Hugs him like an iron vise*
Naruto: WOLF! WHAT THE HELL?!
Wolf: Well, You ran off earlier without spending time with her so….
Naruto: *eye twitches* I am gonna get you back for this…
Wolf: I look forward to it. But until then! *Pulls lever next to him*
(Part of the floor disappears, Naruto and Hinata fall down it. A loud splash can be heard)
Naruto: *Gasp* WOLF!
Wolf: *Walks over to hole* *screams* Thought I would set the mood for you two! There's a warm dry bed down there so enjoy some 'Quality time' together!
Naruto: I AM GOING TO KILL YOU WHEN I GET OUT OF HERE!
Hinata: THANK YOU WOLF!
Wolf: YOU'RE WELCOME HINATA! *Pulls lever back* *Panel closes*
Wolf: And that concludes our story for today folks. UNTIL NEXT TIME!
