Using her own speed semblance Summer started to quickly run around the flames creating a large fire tornado. Slowly she started to expand the size of the tornado increasing the distance between the Grimm and the rest of the group once they arrived.
Tai seen that he and Summer had created at least a 20 meter diameter buffer zone he called out to Raven. "Now Raven!"
Raven quickly created a portal and the other jumped in after wards. Tai caught a dizzy Summer as brushed off a few flames that didn't extinguish. "You okay?" Tai nervously asked.
Summer kissed his cheek and smiled back. "I'm fine." She the stood up as the other readied themselves around her and Tai. "Let's do this!"
Naruto: Memoirs of a Former Shinobi: Chapter 10: The Emerald Forest Part 3
Tai and Summer stood in the center of the cleared area. The ground was burnt as the horde of Beowolves slowly started to surround the area.
Raven portal then appeared above the pair as the rest of the group jumped out of the portal.
"That didn't seem so bad." Ray stated before he slightly wobbled.
"Bonded with him already I see. Remind me to never leave you two trapped in the same room." Qrow silently joked with Raven.
"Fuck off Qrow." Raven responded with venom. "Since he's my partner it made sense to do it." Raven explained.
"Here they come!" Carolina shouted out as the group as the Grimm charged at the group.
The group then charged out to meet the Grimm. The students quickly took the upper hand and made light work of the Grimm however they slowly began to drift away from each other in pairs.
(Carolina and Bart)
"Watch out!" Bart shouted of as he fired a shot behind Carolina. She turned to find a Beowolf had snuck up behind her.
"Thanks." Carolina smiled before the pair turned to each others backs.
"Everyone else seems to be paired off. We should aim to get together with another group. He higher our numbers are in the one group the more chances we have making it out alive." Bart stated out loud his thoughts to Carolina as he fought off several more oncoming Grimm.
(Summer and Tai)
"So I see you've paired up with Qrow. He seems nice." Tai commented towards Summer and he blew a Beowolf away with his gauntlets.
"And you got Raven... Qrow was saying she might be a bit hard to handle." summer stated as she shot down several Grimm.
"Oh Little Miss Personality will be fine... I hope." Tai paused he a brief moment as he spoke. "Oh shit!" However a large Ursa jumped on Tai as he finished.
"Get off me!" Tai roared as he pushed the large Grimm away and up into the air.
(Raven and Qrow)
"Were the hell are these Grimm coming from!?" Raven shouted out in frustration.
"Who cares just keep killing them." Qrow shouted back as he changed his weapons form from a large sword to a scythe.
(Ray and Vav)
"Do you see an end to these things coming?" Vav asked Ray in hope.
"No but I think I just saw Professor Ozpin..." Ray nervously responded.
"Whats he doing here?.. Wait... If he's here then we're being saved..." Vav summoned up his thoughts.
"It means we've failed."
(Whole Group)
The area in which the group stood in slowly started to decrease in size as the Grimm kept continuing to push them back. But before the students could even understand what was going on a flurry of Green flash in front of their eyes and all of the Grimm suddenly died.
"What the?" Tai was stunned on what he had just seen.
"Can someone please tell me what just happened?" Carolina asked the group but was provided an answer by Ray.
"It was Professor Ozpin... He just... He was so fast..." Ray answered in a stunned tone.
"Wait... Did you say Ozpin did this?" A stunned Qrow asked.
"That would be correct students." The voice of Professor Ozpin spoke out to the students. They turned around to find him walking slowly towards them. His cane tucked under his arm.
'If he killed all of these Grimm in just a few seconds either he's overpowered as hell or...' Qrow thought to himself as he watched Ozpin.
"But I can assure you all that you have passed." Professor Ozpin smiled at his students. Most of them smiled and sighed in relief but.
"But what about on the Cliff? About if any instructors help us we fail the exam."
"That is true but I suppose we can bend the rules just a bit... After all all eight of you showed that you cared for your fellow students when you decided to take on the horde of Grimm rather than run away. So you've already proves to me you have what it takes to become Huntresses and Hunters."
The Students looked at each other as they smiled after hearing Professor Ozpin's praise. Summer jumped up and hugged Tai tightly as they were both finally students at Beacon.
(Later that Evening)
Standing inside Beacon's amphitheater the first students that passed waited to be called out onto the stage.
"Carolina Church, Vav Free, Ray Xander and Bartholomew Oobleck." Professor Ozpin called out the four students as they walked out onto the stage.
"You four have collected the White Rook pieces. From this day forward during you will work together as Team CORV (Corn.)" The audience clapped with applause as the team name was announced by Professor Ozpin.
"Led by. Carolina Church. Congratulations Miss Church." Carolina seems stunned by her being made team Leader but she felt a reassuring hand on her shoulder. She turned to see Bart smiling.
"Well looks like we're in you care." Professor Ozpin couldn't help but smile as he welcomed the next four students onto the stage.
"Qrow Branwen, Taiyang Xiao Long, Raven Branwen and Summer Rose." They all walked out on the stage congratulating Team CROV as they done so before standing in front of Professor Ozpin.
"You four have collected the Black Rook pieces. From this day forward during you will work together as Team STRQ (Stark.)" The audience once more clapped with applause as the team was announced.
"Led by. Summer Rose. Congratulations Miss Rose." Before Summer could even think about what Professor Ozpin just said she was hugged by Tai.
"Way to go Summer or should I say fearless leader." Tai smiled at Summer.
"Thank you Naruto." Summer softly spoke as she tried to hide her head from embarrassment.
"That reminds me... You'd be best explaining the whole Naruto thing to us. After all we're a team aren't we?" Qrow stated to both Tai and Summer before they left the stage to allow the next Team move up.
(Team STRQ Dorm room)
With the everyone sitting on their beds there was an eerie silence as Raven and Qrow stared at Tai. Summer looked at him nervously as Tai began speaking.
"Right, so the reason why Summer calls me Naruto is because Taiyang isn't my real name. It's Naruto Uzumaki." Tai explained to Raven and Qrow.
"You're real name's Naruto?.. This is only leaving more questions to be honest." Raven stated, she was obviously not happy and wanted more information.
"Right.. I suppose I should begin from the start. I was born in a village called Konaha or The Village in hidden Leaf. It's not located in Remnant. I honestly don't know where it is but I know it's somewhere in this world..." Tai took in a deep breath as Summer got off her bed and sat down beside him.
"When I was fourteen I was banished from my Village because I tried to save a friend and nearly killed him. The lord of my country felt that I overstepped and told our Village leader the Hokage that they would either have to kill me or banish me..."
"Why did you nearly kill your friend? Sees a bit extreme if you ask me." Qrow stated.
"The reason was that we bought had a fight that went farther than we both wanted it to go." Tai stated as he took off his shirt revealing a large scar on his chest near his heart. "Sasuke did this to me when we fought. The reason we were fighting was be was going to leave the village in search of power and I was trying to stop him. But when he gave me this I knew I would have to try and kill him to win."
"What did you do?" Raven asked as she looked at Tai's scar with interest.
"I broke over seventy percent of the bones in his body, so he wouldn't be able to move or abandon the village... After I left the village and traveled around for a while before I decided to travel by sea. And then I came across a large seal. When I passed the seal I passed out and I woke in a hospital room and that's when I meet Summer." Tai explained as he passed the story over to Summer.
"I found Naruto on a beach in Patch Island. He was nearly dead and didn't wake up after two days intensive care. I visited him for both of those days wanting to know if he would be alright." Summer then began to chuckle as she started to remember.
"The first thing I remember him say to me was 'Hey' as he waved at me with that stupid grin he has."
"Hey!" Tai shouted in mock hurt.
"Shut up you... Anyway Naruto was missing his home and when I told him about Huntsmen and Huntresses and why I wanted to join he wanted to join me too."
"But due to the possibility of my past coming back I was pondering about changing my name. That's when Summer decided to give me the name Taiyang Xiao Long. So as a Shinobi I was Naruto Uzumaki but as a Huntsman I would be Taiyang Xiao Long."
"A Shinobi huh... Sounds like you've had quite the life... I understand. Sorry if I forced you to bring up bad memories." Qrow apologized as he accepted Tai's story. Raven on the other was different.
"Have you ever killed before?"
"What?" Summer asked in shock
"Raven!" Qrow shouted at his twin sister in anger. "What kind of question was that!?"
"Yes." Tai answered as he stared at Raven. Summer and Qrow look at Tai. All three were shocked and stunned speechless by Tai's answer. "When I was twelve I killed someone to protect my life and the life of my sensei. His name was Mizuki."
"Naruto, you never told me about this. Why? Why did you kill someone?" Summer asked Tai. He looked at her and seen she was slightly scared.
Tai stood up keeping his eyes on the ground. "I had to. He was going to kill both of us." Tai then walked towards the Dorm room door. "I'm going out for a bit of air. I'll be back soon."
As Tai left Summer went out after him. "Naruto wait."
With just Qrow and Raven left Qrow angerly looked at a still stunned Raven. "What the hell was that about? Huh?" Qrow asked but his sister didn't respond.
"Answer me Raven!"
"Did you see the look ion his eyes..."
"What?"
"He looked at me as if he was saying harm me or my friends and he would do the same... I think there is more to his past that he isn't telling us, that make him more dangerous now that what he was."
(Tai and Summer)
Leaning over a balcony Tai looked out towards the sunset over the Emerald forest. He soon seen Summer leaning beside him. "I'm sorry if I scared you Summer I didn't mean to. That why I didn't say before now I didn't want you to think of me differently."
Summer remained silent for a moment before she responded. "If you did it to protect someone I understand... I just wished you would have told me." Summer then leaned towards Tai hugging his side.
"I'm sorry."
"You better be cause it's gonna cost you a lot of cookies to make it up to me." Summer stated in a sweet tone causing Tai to start laughing.
"For you i'd do anything."
And Cut!
So that's the end of the Beacon Introduction Arc and now i'll be working on a two part Arc for there first year possibly second year I haven't made my mind up fully yet over which. But I hope to have the next chapter up soon.
Anyway let's get this chapter's Q&A posted!
1) Will Raven be upfront and ask Taiyang to give her a child? Honestly for spoilers I can't say at the moment as I'm trying to keep you all guessing at this stage until it's posted.
2) Will Yang or Ruby will get Naruto/Tai's verbal tick? I honestly don't know. I would say no since they don't in cannon but I will be give Naruto/Tai some puns to use soon. Now I know I hate puns as well but fuck it. It's either Tai or Raven who delivers the puns and considering Raven's character I don't see her delivering any one-liners soon.
3) Will Taiyang meet Port and Oobleck? Oobleck is going to be in Team CORV and Professor Port is a Teachers assistance during one of Tai's stories from Beacon so he will be in the story as well.
So that's all for this chapter folks. If you have a question do feel free to post a review or PM myself. If I don't answer your question on next chapter's Q&A I will try to reply via PM. Thank you for reading this chapter. I hope you've all enjoyed it. Till next time!
