Story START!
"Finally!" Naruto shouted in excitement as he jumped out of the medical tent without any bandages on, showing the new scar on his chest. The scar he got while KILLING A DRAGON! Yeah, this was a scar that he would be proud to show off. How many people that weren't dragon slayers could honestly say that they killed a dragon at the age of 12? He was pretty sure that even with help, most 12 year olds would never be able to do that. aruto grinned and started to run down the street, when he ran into Makarov a few steps away. Naruto stopped and grumbled to himself about being caught to soon, before he looked at the old man with a grin. The old guy wanted to see him anyway, so why wait. He was pretty sure that Erza-sensei would figure out that he broke out of the chains soon, and escaped.
"NARUTO!"
Never mind, she figured it out.
"Sorry, but can we talk later?" Naruto asked nervously, before he started to run off and Makarov started to follow him with a skip in his step.
"No problem my boy, but why are you running from Erza-chan?" Makarov asked, and naruto whistled innocently as the sound of an explosion could be heard in the distance. Naruto shuddered, and his shudder caused him to flinch in a bit of pain. Just because he was well enough to run, did not mean that his body had healed. For the most part his body was still in a lot of pain, and he was trying to get used to his higher strength. Seriously, every step he took shattered the ground under his feet on impact.
"I may not be fully healed, but I may have broken out of bed." Naruto said before he tripped over his own feet, and landed on his chest. He resisted the urge to scream in pain, before forcing himself to get back up with Makarov's help.
"You and Erza-chan seem to have a close relationship." Makarov pointed out with a sly grin, hinting at something more. Naruto blushed out of annoyance, before he gave the older man a look of disgust.
"Erza-sensei is like the... mom or sister I never had. She is teaching me, she really cares about me, and she treats me just like a normal person without me having to prove myself." Naruto said while looking down, and he missed the look that appeared on Makarov's face when he descibed the relationship between when he said that.
"That was just what I was hoping you would say, and lets say you were in danger. Do you think that she would try and rescue you?" Makarov asked seriously, and Naruto nodded lightly. He hoped that she would never have to save him, because that would mean that he needed to be rescued. He didn't want others risking themselves for him. It was his job to risk his life for others, and if he became a burden to his friends he didn't know what he would do.
"Hey where are we old man?" Naruto asked when he saw they were in a darker alley, with nobody around. He never noticed the sly, evil smile go across the old man's face before it turned into a comforting smile and he put his hand on Naruto's shoulder. Naruto turned around, and he saw Makarov findling with something in his pocket before pulling out a vial full of pink pills.
"I know just the thing to help heal you up. These Magic Heal Pills will heal you right up. It tastes good too." Makarov said as he popped one of the pills in his mouth, and swallowed it after a moment. Naruto grinned and took the vial into his hand, before popping one of the pills into his mouth and swallowing it whole. Naruto felt the pill activate, before he hunched over in pain and gribbed his stomach as foreign energy flooded his body. The veins on his body started to throb, and he looked at Makarov in betrayal only to see a tall woman with long black hair standing in his place.
"Who... fuck... you?" Naruto gasped out as he dropped to his knees when blood spewed from his mouth, and he glared at the woman in front of him. She smirked down at him, and took the vial off of the ground.
"You know, when word of your little mission and your victory over a dragon reached the council I expected something... smarter than the creature in front of me. " The woman said as the whites in Naruto's eyes started to turn pink as red blood came from his eyes and fell down his face. The veins on his face bulged as well, before his nose started to bleed with the rest of his face.
"Kill... you." Naruto managed to say, before his arms gave out from the overdose of magic being injected through his body. A magic that was purposely made to be a poison to him it would seem with how fast it was working. He felt his magic drop to dangerous levels as his power pours from his pours and leaked away.
"Tsk tsk tsk. You should be so violent. You only have yourself to blame for this. You have a deep connection to Scarlet, and she would never abandon you. Our sources seem to think that she would risk herself to save you as well, so what better way to capture her. Offering you up as bait will make this so much easier than what we had planned before, and even if she doesn't come... you do have a lot of raw magic we could use in her place." The woman said as she taunted Naruto, before she grabbed his cheeks and forced his to open his mouth and swallow the other pill in the vial. Naruto gagged, and blood started to drip on the ground while his vision turned hazy.
"Don't... touch... Erza!" Naruto said with as much aggression as he could manage, despite the agonoy he was feeling coursing through every injured fiber in his body. He collapsed on the ground, and he mildly wondered how she knew what he was and what his weakness was. She noticed this, and using his red hair to pull his head off the ground she looked him in the bleeding eyes.
"Every mission that is done by a guild is reported to the council, and from the reports of Juvia Lockser and Ichiya of Blue Pegasus we leanred that there was a Fanalis in Fiore. Once we heard your description, we were able to track your own mission history quickly. It really isn't hard to figure out that out of you nd Wendy Marvell that YOU were the Fanalis. Then it was only a matter of getting the pills." The woman said as she smashed Naruto's head into the ground, before lifted his face up again so that he could look her in the face once more. She smirked at him, before she started to stand up and pull him up with her. Holding him in the air by his hair, she moved him around to slowly torture him. He wanted to scream out in pain, but something was stopping his ability to make sound.
'I hate you.' Naruto thought with hate clear in his closing eyes, and the woman scoffed at him as if reading his mind.
"Your hate means nothing to me. You won't be doing anything. With those Fanalis Posion Pills inside your body, you won't be doing anything. With the damage from your fight, mised in with the fact that your magic is being forced out of your body, and special magic is being forced into it yu won't be able to do anything to me." The woman said, and with a quick flick of her wrist she tossed Naruto against the wall. She walked over to Naruto, before wiping a single finger against his bleeding lips. Naruto turned his head away from her, and she grabbed his jaw and foced him to look at her. He coughed up more blood, before he noticed that she was using HIS blood to write a message on the wall.
Dear Erza Scarlet,
We currently have your pet Fanalis, and if you like him in one piece then come alone to the location of your childhood nightmares!
You have one week to make your decision, before well sell him to the highest bidder. The boy that slayed a dragon would make great BREEDING MATERIAL!
Love, a Friend
"You know, you really shouldn't trust people that can stab you in the back." The woman said as Naruto finally passed out from the extreme overdose of magic, combined with how the pills were forcing his body to expell his own magic. His physical state didn't help matters. Naruto last thoughts before he hit the ground again were simple.
'I'm sorry Erza-sensei.'
"Heh, for all that strength he is just a kid. I wonder if I can break him to my cause before Erza shows up." The woman said, before she picked Naruto up with a sick grin on her face and started to walk away before she could be caught.
[-With Erza-]
"Something wrong Erza?" Cana asked when she saw Erza fuming while she watched everyone work on rebuilding the guild, and she looked at Cana with a glare before sighing.
"Naruto-kun busted out of the tent, and I can't find him. Can you use your cards to tell me where he is?" Erza asked, and Cana grinned at her lightly and held her hand out with a 'give me' motion. Erza rolled her eyes, before in a flash she pointed a sword at Cana's face. The girl sweat dropped, before she quickly put the cards on the table. She flipped three cards over, and she hummed with a raised eyebrow when she looked at the cards.
"I can't really tell anything other than this card." Cana said as she pointed at the picture of a man covered with needles, and Erza raised an eyebrow at the card which got Cana going into a deeper expression. "This card shows trials of pain, but if he broke away without being fully healed he may just be having a lot of trouble moving without pain." Cana admitted, not wanting to tell Erza that the other two cards stood. She didn't like seeing them herself, since that little Cait Shelter mage was starting to grow on her.
"Natsu! Gray!" Erza shouted at the top of her lungs, and out of nowhere both of the appeared at her command saluting her. Cana muttered the phrase 'whipped' under her breath before she went back to drinking bear.
"Aye!"
"Yes!"
Both boys were sweating like crazy when they saw the annoyed look Erza had plastered on her visage. An annoyed Erza equalled pain for everyone around her, so solving the reason behind her annoyance was top priority for everyones health. Pinching the bridge of her nose she looked at them before dishing out her orders.
"Natsu, try anhd find Naruto-kun. Gray, if Naruto-kun resists help Natsu restain him if he resists." Erza said with a sigh, before she grabbed Elfman out of the crowd and looked at him with her 'Erza Glare'. He froze out of fear, and she put him in the group with Natsu and Gray. "Help them find Naruto-kun." Erza demanded simply, and with a quick nod of fear he rushed off with the two opposites. Getting an idea Erza went to go talk with Makarov to see if Naruot talked with him yet. When she found him she was not surprised to find him staring at Mirajanes butt with a perverted grin. He saw her seruious face, before quickly turning serious as well.
"Do you need something Erza?" Makarov asked, and Erza nodded slightly.
"Yes, did Naruto ever come and talk to you like you asked him too?" Erza requested, and Makarov tilted his head in confusion at her words.
"I never asked to talk with the boy. Why would you think that?" Makarov asked, and Erza blinked. She was 100 percent sure that it was Makarov that told her he wanted to talk with Naruto.
"You told me that you want to talk with him Master." Erza pointed out, and Makarov raised an eyeborw at her. He knew for a fact that he didn't tell her he wanted to talk with Naruto, so this was getting weird.
"I didn't tell you I wanted to talk with him." Makarov told her with a stern tone, and Erza closed her eyes to thnk about what she was being told. If Makarov didn't tell her he wanted to talk to Naruto, then who did? Then a more important issue went through her head.
Somebody had disguised themselves so that they could talk, or kidnap, Naruto with nobody being wise to them until it was to late. Her eyes shot open when she realized thjat something may have happened to Naruto, so with a new sense of the danger of the situation she started to run around the city with only one thought in her head.
She had to find Naruto, NOW!
Chapter End!
Naruto isn't perfect, and this serves to show him not to trust everyone AND it shows that he does have weaknesses that can be used against him. Magic entering his body can dangerous to him. Also, with how close Naruto has grown to Erza do you really think the he would not be used against her while he was weakened. This will also show Erza that she should be careful around important figures just in case they aren't who they say they are. Also, it shows that even Naruto needs to be rescued every once and awhile.
