Ch. 2: A Hero Awakened

I do not own Naruto or Fable

(Just so you know:

Normal talking- "where am I?"

Normal thinking- 'I wonder how I got here?'

Demon talking- "I am a powerful demon."

Demon thinking- 'I wonder how powerful he will become?'

Spirit and Jack talking- "I will never be beaten"

Spirit and Jack thinking- 'I wonder if he is still alive?'

Jutsu/Spell

"Tell me what you did to me!" yelled Naruto, assuming a defensive stance. "I gave you my power and immortality," Jack answered back.

"What power?" Naruto asked.

"Why, I've given you the power to use magic, transform, summon dragons, and much more," Jack replied.

"Dragons? I thought that they died out eon ago," Naruto responded.

"No, they simply went into hiding as they were being killed off by man," Jack explained.

"Were they evil?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Actually, they were just misunderstood and were hunted out of fear," said Jack as he answered Naruto's questions.

Remembering what had happened with the mask, Naruto then asked, "Why did you tell me to put the mask on?"

With a serious look, Jack replied, "Because I could sense that you are a hero."

"I can' be a hero, I haven't done anything heroic in my life," Naruto said.

"When I said that you are a hero, I meant that you have the bloodline of a hero." Jack explained.

"Bloodline of a hero? You mean my parents were heroes?" Naruto asked, confused.

"How can you not know if your parents were hero?" Jack asked, annoyed.

"My parent died before I was born," Naruto said.

"I am sorry to hear that. But, for now, I need you to promise me that you will not get mad with what I am going to tell you," Jack said.

"Sure, I won't be mad," Naruto said happily.

"That mask you put on will never come off. Unless you die, that is." Jack said, face devoid of expression.

"What do you mean it won't come off?" Naruto yelled, angry at Jack.

Without flinching, Jack answered back, "I am sorry. That is the price for gaining my power."

"Isn't there another way I can use your power without wearing the mask for the rest of my life?" Naruto asked, teetering on the verge of crying.

"There might be a way but first I need you to go to whoever is in charge," Jack said.

"Sure, I will go there, but how do I get out of here?" Naruto asked.

"I help you get out of here," Jack said. Walking to Naruto, Jack lifted his hand to touch Naruto's forehead, which caused Naruto to black out.

~Back in the Sealed Chamber… ~

When Naruto woke up, he slowly got up and looked around for the door. When he found the door, he walked through the door to the central chamber. As he entered the central chamber, he saw that the altar was gone. In its place was some kind of medium seal circle.

"What is this circle in the center of the chamber?" Naruto asked.

"That is a transporter, my young hero," Jack said.

"Where are you, I can't see you?" Naruto asked.

"Just think what you want to say," Jack said.

'Ok Jack, so, what is a transporter?' Naruto asked in thought.

"A transporter is a device that takes you to places that you have been to before, " Jack explained.

'How does it work?' Naruto asked.

"Go stand in the center of the transporter," Jack instructed.

Naruto ran to the center of the seal on the floor and waited to be transported, but nothing happened. Naruto became frustrated, and yelled out, "Why is nothing happening!"

"That is because you have to think of the place that you want to go to," Jack told him.

'Oh, never thought of that,' Naruto admitted, embarrassed. Naruto then concentrated on the place that he wanted to go to. The seal lit up and encased him as his body started to fade. When the light died down, Naruto was nowhere to seen.
