Authors notes: Thank you all who read the last chapter and to all my new followers. Also, thank you to the those who reviewed. This chapter will be a little slow and I am sorry about that. This will have some Lore in it that is associated with the Dragons and their Mages.
Chapter 3: Awake
Naruto was starting to get annoyed as the Doctors fussed around him. Sunset and Shroud could sense that he was getting angry and they started roaring their frustrations from inside his bodies. Finally, his annoyance got the better of him and he threw out his hand and grabbed the arm of the nearest person he could reach. "Can I help you Mr. Uzumaki?" the young male Nurse asked the blond hero. "Can you bring my mother and father to me please?" Naruto asked the Nurse. The Nurse seemed to get a sad look on his face as he tried to detach himself from his patient. "They aren't in the Village now, they are at your brother's engagement party." The Nurse told the boy as he hurried and rushed out of the room. "Oh…" Naruto whispered, though no one was here to hear him.
Deciding not to sit in bed till his family gets back Naruto got out of his hospital bed. His legs started to buckle as he walked across the hospital floor. He exited the room and almost collapsed in the middle of the hospital hall, just before hitting the floor he caught himself on the side of the hall. "I need to get out of this damn hospital…" Naruto muttered to himself. "Well you could use Shroud or even me if you need to some help keeping upright." A feminine voice spoke. "Well who said that?" Naruto thought to himself not wanting to talk to himself out loud lest he make people think he was insane. "That would be Sunset, and this is Shroud…" the distinctive male voice spoke inside Naruto's mind but was interrupted by Naruto speaking "Well how is it possible that you are able to talk?" Two voices could be heard laughing as Naruto continued stumbling through the hospital. "You will learn that when you read the scrolls that the Queen has given you." Shroud spoke to his Master.
"I would love your help, but I feel that we should keep your existence a secret for now." Naruto told the two creatures that were living in his body. The blond Uzumaki continued to stumble down the hall of the hospital when one of the medical staff noticed him. Naruto could hear footsteps running towards him. Looking up Naruto saw the same Nurse as before. "What are you doing out of bed? I swear you Uzumaki's are going to be the death of me." The Nurse asked Naruto as grabbed Naruto's arm as he muttered the last of his words. Naruto pulled his arm from the man and grumbled angrily to the man "I will not spend another moment in that room! I have spent too much time in that room…I want to go home." The Nurse nodded his understanding at what Naruto told him.
"Well…alright. Let me get you some help so you can get there." The Nurse told Naruto. The Nurse walked Naruto out to the exit of the hospital, he waved over one of the orderlies that were walking the hospital. When the man got over to the pair he asked what the Nurse needed from him. "Can you escort Mr. Uzumaki here to his Clans compound?" the Nurse asked the man. "Yes, I can." The orderly replied back to the question. The man helped Naruto out of the hospital and kept his hand on Naruto's arm the whole time. As they walked through the village Naruto was astounded by all the new sights that he didn't remember being in the village when he was a child. One shop drew his attention more than the other sights in the village, Naruto couldn't see the name of the shop but he could hear strange noises coming from inside the shop.
Before Naruto could see the name of the shop his attention was drew by a ruckus. A boy about a year younger than Naruto was running from two Ninja. "…We need to catch him…" could be heard coming from the one of the pursuing Ninja. Just before the boy got caught by the Ninja a smoke bomb dropped from the boy and covered the area. Just as it cleared Naruto could see that the boy was no longer there and that there was two Ninja who were looking around the area in confusion. Naruto chuckled at the scene that he just witnessed, "Who is that boy?" Naruto asked the man with him. The hospital orderly shook his head as he answered Naruto's question "I don't know his name. I just know that we get a lot of injured from the pranks that he pulls." The pair continued moving on to their destination. Easily making the journey to Naruto's Clan home without farther delay.
"The party is going very well; this alliance may end up helping our Village in the long run. I am just happy that Tai is satisfied with his fiancé." Kushina spoke to her husband Minato. Minato turned towards his wife with a smile on his face, but Kushina could see the sadness in his eyes. "Are you thinking of Naruto?" the red haired Kunoichi asked her blond spouse. Minato just nodded before he turned back towards the party. He could see his eldest child conversing with his fiancé, the second daughter of a foreign Clan. Her name is Kumi Tenrō, she has long lavender colored hair adorning her pale white body. Amber colored eyes adorned her pale face. Along with the foreign Kunoichi walked a grey colored wolf pup.
Minato stood up from his chair and started walking the floor of the party. Kushina watched her husband mingle with the guests at their son's party. While she was watching him, her mind wandered to her other son. "I wonder how he is doing, I haven't been to see him in a while. I should go and visit him when I get back to the village." Kushina thought to herself, not expecting her tenant to respond. "Well you would know how he is doing if you would visit him more than once every two months. Tai is not the only child who could use a mother's comfort." A demonic male voice rumbled through Kushina's mind. "I know Kurama. Now shush." Kushina thought back to her Demon tenant. She too left her seat and joined the party mingling with her son's guests.
Naruto walked through his childhood home, noticing the small differences that have changed from the last time he was here. It's like his family has forgotten about him, the pictures of him were all gone and when he finally made it to his and Tai's old room he noticed that all his belongings were packed away in boxes and pushed off to the side. "It looks like they never expected me to come back…" Naruto spoke out loud to himself. Naruto walked to the room that would have become his when he turned 13, moving the boxes of his stuff to this new room along with the furniture. He then unpacked the boxes and placed the furniture putting his things where he wanted them. Getting rid of the clothes and things that no longer were of use to him, Naruto then took a set of clothes from Tai's room that looked like they would fit him. Though the clothes were the right size they were a little loose since Naruto didn't go throw the same training that Tai had.
Going back to finish setting up his room Naruto was finished by the time the sun fell in the sky. Naruto sat down on his newly made bed. "I think I will read those scrolls now, do either of you know where they are?" Naruto asked the two Dragons that were residing in his body. "Queen Umeka gave the scrolls to your soul, so I would assume that they would still be with it." Shroud answered his Master. Naruto started to say something back but was cut off by Shroud, "Before you ask how to get them, all you need to do is focus like you would to call us and then they should appear." Deciding that just following the instructions would suffice better than answering Naruto started to focus on calling the scrolls out of his body. It took a few tries and a lot of concentration but the scrolls finally appeared in Naruto hand.
Naruto counted four scrolls, they were all nestled in Naruto's hand. Each one a lovely shade of violet, black writing was embedded on them. Setting the scrolls down Naruto then choose a scroll at random, this scroll had writing on it the read Customs and biology of the Clan. Naruto opened the scroll and began to read what the precious information that it provided.
Chapter 1: Customs
Our Clan of Warrior Mages are quite different that most of the others out in the world of Krystal. We are currently the only Clan that uses Dragons as our fighting partners since our Clan is the only one who do not fear the strength and brutality of the creatures. Our Clan is also known for taking in the outcasts from the other tribes, though we make them swear loyalty to our King or Queen. Before the outcasts can choose a Dragon of their own they must be sponsored by one of the Sub-Clans that our Village houses within itself. This sponsor will then take the outcast into their compound where they will then become a member of that Sub-Clan and choose a Dragon that this Sub-Clan has bred. Though we often make enemies with other Clans for taking in their outcasts this is a good method at getting new blood in our Clan.
Chapter 2: Biology
Our biology is just like other Clans and as such means we can breed amongst each other. Since we have Crystals embedded into our bodies we are biologically different than regular humans which haven't been present in our world for generations. We can still have children with humans since we have the base nature of the human species. Our differences are that with our Crystals both our men and women can carry children, the crystal will create a womb of magical energy in the body of a male if they choose to carry a child. Though if they are in a relationship with a human they will not be able to impregnate a human male since they have no Crystal in their body, our kind would be the one to carry the child.
Naruto finished reading the scroll. "Well that was not what I was expecting…" Naruto spoke out loud to himself. He placed the first scroll down on the opposite side of the others, while picking up another one he noticed that it read Sub-Clans and their Crystals. Naruto opened this scroll up even quicker than the last one, and dived right in to the precious source of information.
Chapter 1: The Sub-Clans

The Ozawa are the next, they can cast illusion magic from the crystals that they liked to place in their foreheads; they also have a tendency towards fire magic.

Naruto finished the scroll with excitement at all the information he was gaining. Sitting the scroll in the pile that symbolizes the read pile he picked up the last scroll. He saw what was written on the scroll The Important Spell. Pulling the scroll open he dived in the last of the scrolls.
Chapter 1: The Spell
The one spell that you need to know how for you to be able to learn other spells is the one that would get your physical body back to Krystal. The spell is called "The Doorway" it is a spell that will open a door to our realm. You will perform this spell by drawing a door on one of the walls where you want to make the doorway. Once the door is drawn you need to speak these words Toguchi o Hirakimasu.
Naruto finished the scroll. By the time, he read the last word he was about collapse from exhaustion.
Authors notes: I am sorry for the long length of the chapter and how little action is in the story. Hopefully you will all like the chapter. Please review with any likes, dislikes and general comments. Toguchi o Hirakimasu per Google is supposed to mean "To open a Doorway." If that is wrong, please let me know.
