Chapter 1: New Friend and New Family
July 6th, unknown year, Skies of Ishgar
Tsukuyomi could be seen flying at an extremely fast speed in order to see her old friend, the Queen of the skies, Grandine the Sky Dragon.
"Hey, Overgrown Lizard, who is this friend of yours that you are taking us to in order to treat the kid?" Kurama asked, curiosity clear in his voice. 'She had better not try to kill us…or ELSE…' he thought to himself.
"Firstly, don't call me an Overgrown Lizard, you Oversized Furball." Tsukuyomi growled. "And to answer your question, my friend is the queen of the skies, Grandine the Sky Dragon. When it comes to healing, there is nobody better at healing in the world than her."
"What about the Gods?" Kurama asked.
Tsukuyomi snorted. "They are too lazy to give a damn anymore, choosing to let us dragons do as we wish." She murmured something else that to Kurama sounded like "Lazy Morons", "Useless Bastards", and so on and so forth… Kurama sweat dropped at her attitude and clear disrespect towards gods, then again, the gods of this world were clearly different to those in his world.
She then turned her attention to the kid in her hand, lying there next to the transforming Furball…What was his name?
'I wonder what had happened in order for the kid to end up in this state. Not to mention that the fact that the Cat-Fox-Thing can hold that much power in a body that small…that one is scary stuff and he isn't even female…Not to mention he could probably defeat me and Grandine in combat…at the same time. He might even be a match for that battle savvy moron Igneel…how he ever found a kid to look after willing to put up with him, I will never know…' Tsukuyomi thought.
Somewhere else in Ishgar
A huge red dragon sneezed, sending the small pink haired kid flying into a rock with the force of his sneeze.
"Geez, dad…I thought you said you wouldn't attack." The pink haired boy said, before leaping again, igniting his fist in flame.
"Sorry Natsu…but someone must have been talking about me." Igneel told him, then gave minimal effort to brace for his son's attack.
'Could it have been that Tsukuyomi dragon/chick? Nah…she is to unsocial to understand the pride that comes with being a Dragon King…let alone get herself a kid to train…' he thought.
If only he knew…
He was too deep in his thoughts to notice that Natsu was beginning on barraging him with flaming punches.
Back with Kurama, Tsukuyomi and Naruto
"Hey, Fox…I never got your name. Mind telling me?" she asked.
"Kurama. My name is Kurama." Kurama introduced himself. "I am the Kyuubi no Kitsune, the strongest of the nine Bijuu." The last bit showed his hubris.
"Kurama…nice name. though I cannot say that I ever heard of the nine Bijuu before…" Tsukuyomi said, curious.
"I'd be well and truly surprised if you had." Kurama said. "In truth, we are not from this world, but from one called the Elemental Nations." He explained.
"So, if you came from another world…how did you end up in this one?" she asked. "And what in that world could have caused the kid to have such injuries?"
"Look, I will only say what I have to say once, and I am sure that your friend will want to know as well. It…will take a while to recount everything anyway…" Kurama said.
"You are right about my friend…even when we were younger she was quite the nosy one…gentle, but nosy." Tsukuyomi said.
They continued flying for another half an hour (1) in silence, with Kurama now truly appreciating the sheer speed that the dragon could achieve…in the last 30 minutes they could have flown from the eastern shores of Mizu no Kuni (Land of Water) to the western border of Kaze no Kuni (Land of Wind), a distance that would take him around 3 days…
"Kurama, we are approaching my friends home." Tsukuyomi said.
"That was fast. I really hope she can heal the kid." Kurama said. Suddenly he heard a small noise and transformed into a small fox with huge ears…big mistake…
For the instant he did, Tsukuyomi let out an ear shattering roar…as a way of letting her friend know that she is on her way…
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR!
Which was joined by…
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!
…as Kurama screamed in pain coming from his abused ears…
'What in the name of Dad was I thinking?' he asked himself.
Moments earlier
At a cave in the west woods of Fiore, a young girl with blue hair can be seen practicing magic, with a huge white dragon watching her from behind. This young girl is called Wendy Marvell. She is an orphan whose parents either left her, lost her or died.
The white Dragon is called Grandine. She had found Wendy a few months ago and decided to adopt the cute little girl as her own kid and began teaching her magic. Sky Dragon Slaying Magic.
At the moment, Wendy could be seen taking in the air around her and focusing it into her own power.
"Sky Dragons Roar" She yells, unleashing a tunnel of wind form her mouth towards a small boulder. The horizontal tornado like wind smashed into the boulder with a resounding crunch, leaving a deep crack running all the way through it.
"Alright! I did it mommy! I finally did it!" she yells happily.
Grandine smiled at her daughter. "Well done Wendy, you are improving tremendously. Now, how about you try the Sky Dragons Talons on those trees over there…" she said before she was interrupted…
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!
Wendy instantly ran towards her mother and hid amongst the feather like scales that made up Grandine's skin.
"Mommy…w-what w-was t-that?" she stuttered. "And what are those scents I am smelling?" she added once she had taken a few deep breaths.
"Oh…that was a dragon's roar and a cry of pain, as for the smells, those belong to a human, a cat/fox, blood and an old friend of mine who usually remains in her own home." Grandine said. "How about you go inside for a bit?" she suggested.
"Okay Mommy." Wendy said, climbing out of her (warm and cosy) hiding spot amongst her mother's scales and ran into the cave.
'Why is Tsukuyomi coming here? And what/who are the ones with her?' Grandine thought. 'Also…what could have caused her to come out of her isolated nature? I guess I will be getting some answers soon.' She looked up to see the pale pink dragon flying above her. Her eyes almost glowed with desperation.
"Grandine!" the pale pink dragon shouted, whilst coming in to land.
In the cave
Wendy was knocked of her feet and into the air by the force of the landing dragon.
Outside
"Tsukuyomi, my old friend. What is wrong? Are you hurt?" Grandine said. In answer Tsukuyomi looked at her hands as she opened them, revealing an orange cat and…
"Not me, but this kid is in desperate need of your healing." Tsukuyomi said.
…a heavily injured kid whose skin had turned an unhealthy white by now.
"What in the world happened to him?" Grandine said in surprise. The boy looked absolutely horrible to her.
"No Idea. I saw some strange lights in the sky near my home and went to investigate. That is where I found Kurama here and the kid. Seeing the state the boy is in, I brought him to you for help." Tsukuyomi said before suddenly taking in a deeeeeeep breath of air. "Only Kurama knows what happened to him, but he…"
"Do you mind? The longer you two talk, the less chance there is that the Kit will survive!" Kurama said.
"Of course." Grandine said. "Let's get him into the cave where I will start healing him."
Kurama transformed into a 5 tailed kitsune and used his tails to carry Naruto into the cave, much to the shock of Grandine. Tsukuyomi was less surprised as she at least knew that he could transform.
"Wendy, I am coming in with some guests and someone who need immediate healing." Grandine called out as she entered the cave. "I am going to need your help with this one."
"On my way, Mommy." Wendy said as she came running. "What do you need me to do?"
"Wendy, this is my old friend, Tsukuyomi, the Moon Dragon, and her friend Kurama, and uhm…the one who need healing…What was his name again?' Granding thought.
Kurama, realizing that he hadn't given anyone Naruto's name yet, said, "Naruto…his name is Naruto." He said. When Wendy arrived from around the corner the corner, the first two thing that went through his mind was 'The kid will either be her best friend…or the two of them will one day get married…at least if Naruto becomes anything like his father…' Even he had to admit that the blue hair on the girl's head was a sight to see.
Wendy gasped when she first laid eyes upon the boy., who was about her age and height and had three whisker marks on each cheek that she thought were absolutely cute and adorable…which sent her into a blushing state when she realized what she had just thought.
Then she looked at the rest of his body and nearly threw up. Sure, her mother had now and then brought in some animals who had deep cuts and injuries, but never had she seen anything like this.
"W-w-what happened to him?" Wendy asked shocked.
"Please make sure that he will survive first." Kurama said. "I will explain everything after that."
Grandine nodded at that, then began telling Wendy what to do on her side as both of them began using their magic to heal the boy.
Nearly half an hour later, "Ok, we got him to a point where he will survive…Actually, Wendy could handle the rest from here!' Grandine said, thinking the rest.
"Then in that case, you'd better listen because this will take a while…" Kurama said and began telling the two dragons what had happened, at which point Wendy had finished Healing the boy and had curled up next to him, fast asleep. Kurama paused to look at the to kids and immediately wished he had a camera on hand…the two looked to damn cute together…he was sure that Matatabi would have gone all girly over the pair…
Shaking his head, he returned to explaining the situation to the two dragons.
Next morning
Kurama's explanation continued until early morning, and Tsukuyomi now knew why he said he'd only tell it once…it had taken the fox around 8 hours of constant uninterrupted talking to tell the tale, which included the history of his world, his father's and uncle's fight with the Juubi (Ten Tails), how he came to be, the nature of Shinobi, chakra, the origin and history of the hidden villages, the Uchiha and Senju clans, Naruto's parents…everything.
"So now you know what had happened to him and why I used that technique to come here." Kurama said.
"I cannot believe that there exists a world where Humans can be so…so…so stupid!" Tsukuyomi growled. She now really wanted to go to that world and tear the villagers of this 'Konohagakure' a new one…and maybe blow some stuff up whilst she was at it.
"I agree with you there, old friend. And I can see why you came out of isolation there." Grandine said. 'Humans…even though it happened in another world…no child should suffer like this or have gotten this type of treatment…' she thought.
A thought suddenly came to her, one she found interesting.
"Hey, Tsukuyomi." She said.
"Yes, Grandine…Uhm…why do you have that smug look on your face?" Tsukuyomi asked.
"Why don't you adopt him and teach him your magic?" Grandine asked.
"That is actually a good idea." Kurama agreed. 'And maybe teach him some things that are his birth right…'
"WHAT?" Tsukuyomi shouted. "What would I know about raising a child?"
"Call it motherly instinct." Kurama said.
A groan caught their attention where they saw that Naruto was waking up.
Naruto opened his eyes only to came face to face with a cute girl, that nearly had him blushing.
"So pretty hair…" Naruto muttered, entering a daze. His breath roused the girl from her on sleep and she in turn got entranced by the deepest pair of blue eyes she had ever seen.
"Good morning, Wendy/Naruto." Grandine and Naruto said.
…
"Ok…maybe we should have separated them while they slept…they are too far gone…" Grandine sweat dropped, seeing that neither of the kids had heard them. Kurama and Tsukuyomi giggled at her reaction.
"Ramen's ready!" Kurama said. Immediately Naruto stood up and looked around, startling the young girl next to him.
"RAMEN? WHERE?" Naruto asks.
"Sorry kid, that was a lie to get you back to the living world." Kurama said.
"Uhm…who are you?" Naruto asked.
"Name's Kurama, Kit. Though I think you should introduce yourself to the cutie next to you." Kurama said.
This time when Naruto looked at the young girl next to him he didn't space out…though he came close to it.
"Uhm…how do I introduce myself again?" Naruto asked Kurama after a moment of silence, making him and the two dragons face plant.
The girl giggled, catching Naruto's attention.
"You greet and give your name." she continued giggling. "My name is Wendy Marvell."
"Oooh…that's how it works…" Naruto said. "Nice to meet you, Marvell-chan. I am Naruto."
"Uhm…Naruto…I forgot to tell you that people say the order of their names differently here…" Kurama said.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Naruto asked.
Wendy giggled again…she honestly thought that Naruto's personality was very likable. "My given name is Wendy, Naruto-kun."
"Ohh…still don't get it." Naruto said.
"And you two want me to adopt this guy?" Tsukuyomi said to Kurama and Grandine.
"Huh? You want to adopt Naruto-kun? I think that is a great Idea." Wendy cheered.
"NOT YOU TOO!" Tsukuyomi shouted, much to the laughter of Kurama and Grandine.
"Wendy, why don't you go and play with Naruto outside whilst I try to convince this knucklehead to accept." Grandine suggested. Wendy nodded and grabbed Naruto's hand as she ran out of the cave.
It didn't take long for Grandine to convince Tsukuyomi to adopt young Naruto…
Timeskip, July 7th, X777 11:00PM
It has been about a year since Naruto and Kurama came to this world and met Grandine, Tsukuyomi and Wendy. During this time Tsukuyomi taught Naruto her branch of Dragon Slaying Magic, Moon Dragon Slaying Magic.
Kurama himself also played his part by teaching Naruto some of the things from his old world, such as chakra, tree climbing, and also began teaching him his father's signature melee technique, the Rasengan. Needless to say, when Wendy discovered that since she didn't have chakra, she couldn't learn the Rasengan, she sulked for the rest of the day.
Speaking of the girl, since Naruto arrived, Grandine and Tsukuyomi had moved in together, meaning that most of the time, the two of them trained together and although she was his senior in term of skills, Naruto somehow managed to catch up to her within half a year. From that point on, the two of them had a friendly rivalry.
Kurama had also told him about his family, origins and the reason behind the hate and beatings. Although Naruto shouted at him and vented his frustration and anger, he eventually came to understand Kurama's reasoning…after somehow managing to catch the Fox unawares and driving a Rasengan into his backside.
That and Wendy slapped some sense into him.
Now the two young kids were sleeping in each other's arms, having found that it is warmer that way…and more comfortable.
"I really wish I had a camera right now…" Kurama said. The 2 dragons agreed with him there.
"As long as those to have each other, they will be fine…not to mention, they will still have you with them, Ku-san." Tsukuyomi said.
Taking one last look at their children, Grandine and Tsukuyomi decided that it was time.
"It is time…please look after them for us." Grandine told Kurama, who nodded. He watched as they departed, going to a place only he knew where to find them individually, and in time, where he could help their children find them as well.
(1): Fangs of Death had them fly for several hours, but with how fast the dragons spread out during the unravelling of Face in both Manga and Anime, that figure seems to be rather long.
…
AND DONE…with this chapter.
Please R&R.
Oh and I had a conversation with Fangs of Death concerning the second elements of both Naruto and Wendy…not going to say what they are…gotta keep it a surprise, though they will be a bit different from what FoD wanted…Sorry Mate.
