Chapter 21: Towards the sand…
Pant. Pant. The blond was keeping his head down and panting, trying to catch his breath, no one likes running for hours and his body clearly said that. The blond raised his head and looked in front of him, Refugee Point was just a few meters away, he just needed to cross the hill up front and he will be there. The blond looked behind and saw a dark cloud, like any other ninja he considered it a bad omen.
The blond's mind was racing with thoughts, he needed to do something, the Scourge might still be on his trail, if he stays put they might catch up, he needed to go somewhere safe, he needed to leave this continent with the two girls. Then again he knew that the guys from the Shimmering Winds won't let him leave alone, without them in other words. He didn't mind, he could use the help and he could use more companions, besides he still had a lot of tricks to learn.
Shaking his head the blond started walking slowly and painfully up the hill. As he reached the top he took a deep breath and looked in front of him, he could clearly see Refugee Point, the guards were patrolling, the fire was burning and he could see the horses of the organization's members. The blond smiled and sighed in relief, if they were here that meant that Seyah and Finia were safe.
Wiping the sweat of his forehead, the blond started running towards the camp. As he was running the guards on station turned their attention towards him and tensed, as the blond got closer they relaxed recognizing him. Two of the guards approached the blond as he stopped in front of them. The guards saluted the blond with respect making him look at them strangely.
"Welcome back Byakko, sir." one of the guards said keeping a straight face but Naruto could see the respect in his eyes.
"Umm…it's good to be back?" Naruto asked taken by surprise by the salute and the respectful tone.
"We were waiting for your arrival sir, captain Nials is also waiting for you." the second guard said towards the blond.
"Right…umm…care to tell me why you are so…respectful?" he asked blinking in curiosity.
The guards looked at each other and then at the blond with a smile on their face. "Quite simple sir, we have heard of your brave deeds in protecting the princess and everyone here at Refugee Point came to respect you more than before." he said.
Naruto blinked in surprise. "Ok…" he said still shocked "Is Finia here?" he asked.
The second guard nodded. "Yes, she is debating the next move in the tent over there." he said turning around and pointing towards a large tent that had the organizations horses near it.
Naruto nodded. "Thanks." he said as he started walking away, the guards returned to their posts.
As Naruto reached the tent he heard people talking inside, he could clearly hear Finia arguing with the organizations mage from what it seemed. Curios as to what was happening the blond waited outside and started listening to the conversation.
"My princess, you must understand, we cannot wait here for him." the mage said.
"I don't care, we will wait and that's final." Finia countered angrily.
"But you heard captain Nials, there was a Scarlet patrol here two days ago, they might be retuning from Southshore any time." the mage argued.
"Are you expecting me to leave Naruto behind?" the girl asked furiously.
"No your highness, we can leave a message telling him where to look for us and we will depart." Silin replied to the girl's question.
"And what about the deathknights?" Finia asked slamming her hands on the table. "If they catch Naruto then…then…" Naruto heard her starting to whimper and sob.
"Your highness, I know you love the boy but it's not like you are going to marry him…" the mage pressed on.
"It is!" she shouted back startling the mage and the rest of the people in the room. "I didn't tell him, but I would be more than happy to marry him and for him to become the king of Stormwind." she shouted.
Naruto lowered his head after hearing that and wiped a tear of happiness from his eyes. "And not just me." she then said making Naruto raise his head. "Seyah will also marry him."
"What?" shouted the entire room and Naruto outside started choking on the air he was breathing. "That's impossible." someone in the room said.
"It cannot be done." another added.
"It can, or have you forgotten about the history? There was one king that had two wives." she argued.
"That was because of necessity." the mage replied calmly "He had to marry both to unite two factions that had been at war and unite the humans under one banner."
"So what?" Finia asked stubbornly "Can't we do this to strengthen our allegiance with Darnassus?" she asked.
"She is not of royal blood." the mage said pointing towards a figure next to Finia.
Naruto took a deep breath and walked inside making everyone look at him, the blond glared at the mage who looked at him with a raise eyebrow. "Since when do you care if she is of royal blood or not?" asked Naruto. Just as the mage was about to reply Naruto continued "I'm not of royal blood, but if Finia wants to marry me I will gladly accept it, would you go against her wishes?" he asked stopping next to Finia.
"Naruto…" she said looking at him, the blond looked at her and then at Seyah and gave them an eye smile. The girls teared up as they looked at him.
"Did you think I was going to die?" he asked calmly. "You don't have to worry about me, it takes more than a couple of deathknights to take down Uzumaki Naruto." he said with a chuckle as he cupped the girl's cheeks in his hands. "Don't cry…alright?" he asked.
"Well it's nice to see you in one piece brat." Tyrasves said with a grin "Seems like I was wrong about you, you can hold it in tough situations."
Naruto closed his eyes and sighed, he the opened his eyes and turned towards the table and placed his hands on it. "Alright, listen, we have problems." he said gaining everyone's attention.
"What problems?" the mage asked.
"While I was trying to trick the knights into trapping them in a cave I found out that they constantly watched my every move with a Shade." he said making everyone tense.
"Where are you going with this?" asked Nials shaking slightly "Are they heading here?" she asked.
"Possibly…" the blond acknowledged "I managed to trap three of the five knights in a cave…"
"That won't hold them." a gnome from the organization said.
"Kulian is right." admitted Tyrasves "It will take more than that to stop a deathknight."
"It doesn't matter, it bought us precious time." the blond said "I lost track of the Shade in Hillsbrad Foothills, but I don't know for how long." he admitted. "They might be heading here as we speak." he said.
"What should we do?" asked Silin.
"We need to leave the continent." the blond replied shocking everyone. "I've been measuring the options, we cannot go to Outland that's for sure." he said as everyone in the organization nodded. "We cannot return to Deadwind Pass because of the Scarlet…" this time Finia nodded.
"But why towards Kalimdor? Why not Ironforge?" asked Seyah curios.
"If we go to Ironforge we will encounter two problems, the first will be that the undead will most likely follow us there and attack the city, and that there might be Stormwind patrols there." replied Naruto to the girl.
"So where do you plan on going in Kalimdor? Darnassus would be a good idea but we cannot just go there and tell them that we are hiding the princess from Stormwind and her father." the organizations mage replied to the blond.
"Do you guys by any chance have a hiding place in Kalimdor?" Naruto asked "It would be the best solution to hide there for a while." he admitted.
Silin scratched his chin and took a map from his pocket and placed it on the table, he opened it and looked over it tracing the areas with a finger. He then stopped over a region named Tanaris and tapped on it.
"We have a hiding place there…in Tanaris…" he said and then moved his finger over the map again and stopped over a outpost. "We also are in good terms with the outpost in Feralas and we can hide there as well." he said looking at the blond.
"The best option would be Tanaris, who knows what spies can be in the outpost…" replied Naruto.
"What about the Horde?" Tyrasves asked making everyone look at her.
"What about it?" Kulian asked.
"From what Zagark told us a bunch of Orc's wanted to take the princess to Thrall for her father's mistakes." she replied.
Naruto looked at the girl in question and saw her with her head down. The blond smiled and moved his arm around her shoulder and brought her close to him. She looked up at the blond and smiled moving her head on his chest and closing her eyes.
"Don't worry, I will protect her, even if it kills me…" the blond said looking at Seyah. "I will protect both of them…" he then looked at everyone "…even if I have to go alone, I will go to Tanaris." he said sternly.
The organization members looked at each other and then towards the blond. "If you go, we will go." the mage said "We have been given the task to protect the princess at all costs…" he said.
"Good…we need to take a boat tonight and go there." Naruto said.
"Why tonight?" asked Finia.
"From what I heard there was a Scarlet patrol a few days here…" Naruto said.
"Wait, you were spying on us?" asked Finia backing away slightly.
"I was curios why people were yelling." the blond replied with a grin.
The girl looked at him and then glared. "You know…you will have a lot to make up for." she said and Naruto blinked at her.
"For what?" he asked not understanding.
"For playing hero." Seyah replied to his question looking angrily at him.
"What?" the blond shouted shocked. "I had to do something or else they would have caught us…and I can't risk loosing you two."
"Then you would risk your own life?" asked Finia tearing up again "You would play the bait and die?"
Naruto tried to reply but Seyah cut him off. "If you died, do you think we would have been happy?" she asked also tearing up.
Naruto looked between the two girls not knowing how to reply or what to do. They were about to cry for something he had done, because they were worried for him. Naruto lowered his head and then looked up again at the two girls. He moved towards them and grabbed them, pulling them in a hug.
"I know I said this before, but you aren't going to lose me…not now, not ever." he said letting the two girls cry in his shoulder.
Silin coughed gaining the blond's attention "I don't want to be rude, but is there another reason you want to leave tonight?" he asked.
Naruto nodded. "Yes there is, I want to be sure I completely lose the deathknights, if they are on their way here we cannot risk it…you said it yourself that you cannot take down five at the same time." he replied to the mage's question.
Silin nodded. "It would require at least twenty of our best to take five at the same time." he admitted. "Very well, we will pack our things and leave now." he said turning around and walking towards the exit.
Naruto looked down at the girl and tightened his hold on them, he lowered his head a little and whispered in their ears. "Go and get ready, take all your stuff and meet me back here." he said to them kissing them gently on their heads.
The girls nodded and moved away from Naruto, they whipped their tears and turned around leaving the tent. Naruto sighed and turned around and looked at the remaining people, Silveneah and Nials. The blond smiled at the two.
The night elf woman walked over to Naruto and stopped in front of him. The blond raised an eyebrow. "Naruto…" she said "Do take care of my sister and don't break her heart." she said seriously.
The blond nodded. "Don't worry…she's safe with me…I give you my word." he told her as the woman nodded and smiled.
"Naruto." Nials said gaining the blond's attention.
"Yes?" he asked.
"I want you to know that everyone here in Refugee Point came to respect you greatly." she said as the blond smiled under his mask "I want you to know that whenever you are in trouble…look for us, call us, we will come." she said.
"Where are you going with this?" Naruto asked catching the hint in her words.
"The princess wants to marry you, that means that you will become king, when that happens…if that happens, we will become your army without any questions asked." she said as she bowed down.
"Nials?" the blond asked shocked.
"The people of Stromgarde will gladly accept you as their leader if you promise that once you become our king you will return Stromgarde keep to us and help us rebuild it." she said as she kneeled down in front of the blond.
"Your deeds speak highly, the princess acknowledges you and trusts you more than life, you have proved to be a capable warrior and a great leader…we will gladly become your followers, we will fight at your side and die at your side now and forever." she said seriously.
Naruto looked at the woman before him and couldn't help but blink in wonder, he had never had anyone, absolutely anyone say this kind of words towards him. It was new to him, it was shocking, it was beyond belief. He didn't know what to say…what to do. An entire army would gladly accept him and follow him for just a promise, one that he will have to keep.
"Nials…" the blond said "I…this is too much to think…I don't know if I am suited to be a king or anything like that…but Finia trusts me…" he said "So I can't let her down, therefore, if I do become king I promise you that we will take Stromgarde back and we will return it to its formal glory." the blond declared with a grin.
"Many thanks lord Naruto." the woman said as she stood up. "My men will forever remember you and we will forever follow you."
"You don't really have to." the blond said scratching the back of his head embarrassed. "I made a promise and I intend to keep it, even if I don't become king I will still help you get the keep back and even if I have to work by myself I will help you rebuild everything." he said with a grin.
The woman grinned back and bowed down. "Many thanks lord."
"Please don't call me that." Naruto deadpanned, he didn't like to be called so formal, he was no lord, he was no important person, you could say he was just a peasant in this world.
"As you wish…but keep in mind, if you ever need our assistance feel free to call for us." she said as she left the tent.
Naruto sighed. "Pretty popular you're becoming." Silveneah admitted as she giggled.
"Yeah…I never thought things would turn like this." he said as he started walking towards the exit. "By the way, where is Nightwalker?" he asked.
"The same place you left him of course, I fed him while you were gone, but please…next time…warn us before you disappear with my sister." she said with a small laugh.
Naruto turned towards her and grinned, he then turned towards the exit and started walking. "You are coming with us right?" he asked.
"Of course, my sister is with you, while I trust that you will protect her I still want to make sure she will be safe." she said sternly.
Naruto nodded as he left the tent. He then started walking away until he reached the stables. He nodded at the guards who saluted him with respect making his feel better for some strange reason, he liked this kind of attention, he wanted it to last. The blond entered the stable and looked around, he spotted the druid's nightsaber sleeping in a corner.
"Nightwalker!" Naruto called, the cat's ears moved at the sound and its eyes opened scanning the area. They rested on Naruto. Nightwalker stood up and stretched yawning loudly. It then walked towards the blond and started moving around him purring like a cat and making Naruto chuckle.
"You missed me didn't you?" he asked as the cat placed its head on his shoulder. "Come on…" Naruto said putting his hand on the cat's head. "Let's find the girls."
Nightwalker made a sound of agreement and lowered its body letting the blond climb up. Naruto get on the cat's back and said cat stood up and started walking out of the stables slowly. As they got outside Naruto took a deep breath enjoying the night and looked around as the cat continued walking for both of them. There was nothing out of order, he could see the organization members mounting up and preparing to leave.
Naruto stopped in front of the tent he and the girl's shared. A few seconds later Finia and Seyah came out wearing their armors. Finia was wearing a long priest robe with blue stripes coming down from her shoulders, she had a pair of green gloves, blue boots, a necklace resembling a leaf tied to her neck, two rings on a finger each and green cape with blue edges. She held the staff that Naruto had given her. The girl smiled at the blond who smiled back at her.
He then turned to look at Seyah and see what she was wearing, it shocked him a little. The girl had a metallic chest armor that covered her assets yet showed them really good, the armor stopped above her belly. Her pants were made out of leather, they had a light brown color. She had a long cape colored green in the middle and black on the edges, she wore black gloves and a pair of black boots. Tied to her back was the bow Naruto had given her not long ago. The blond smiled at her as well.
Naruto looked up in front and saw Silveneah approaching on top of her own nightsaber and the rest of the organization members. He looked at everyone and saw that they were all ready. Then he looked at Silveneah, the woman tossed a backpack towards him which he caught with ease. He opened it and found his remaining scrolls inside, he grinned and placed the backpack inside a container.
"Alright…I will take care of Finia." Naruto said as he told Nightwalker to lean down. Finia then positioned herself behind Naruto and strapped her staff to her back.
"Come on Seyah, you're with me for now." said Silveneah as the girl got on her sisters nightsaber sitting behind her.
"So where to?" asked Silin.
"Wetlands, Menethil harbor, we will take a boat to Dustwallow March from there." the blond replied to the mage who nodded.
Naruto then told Nightwalker to start moving and the fox did as it was told. Silveneah moved next to the blond while the organization members moved behind him. As they were making their way out of them camp, Naruto, and the rest of the group, was surprised when they saw that every single guard and soldier lined up and started saluting the blond as he was passing.
As they reached the end of the long line of soldiers and at the exit of the camp they saw Nials waiting for them with Gerret and Oslight next to her with a grin on his face. He was holding something in his hands wrapped in silk. The blond stopped in front of them and raised an eyebrow. The marshal walked over to Naruto and raised the item he was holding up to him. The blond raise an eyebrow and took the item in his hands and took the wrapping off revealing a sword.
The sword had a brown hilt and golden endings resembling a eagles wings, at the bottom of the hilt there was a small diamond colored blue. The blade was large and it looked powerful, there was also a strange red glow around it. The blond, curios moved his finger towards the glow and was amazed when he felt heat radiating from it, he looked at the marshal curios.
"That sword served me well in my time, while I was just a private, I feel you can have it as a token of appreciation." he said
"But I didn't do anything." the blond said amazed.
Oslight shook his head. "You killed two Syndicate leaders that were giving us a lot of trouble and protected the princess no matter what, you deserve it." he said with a smile.
"Thanks…" the blond said looking at the sword.
"It's enchanted." Oslight said making Naruto's eyes widen "The enchant will made the sword burn anyone on contact, fry the enemy's skin and clothing…" he said with a pleased grin.
Naruto grinned back at the marshal. "Thanks, it means a lot." he said as the marshal nodded.
"Take care Naruto, and take care of the princess as well." he said with a bow.
Naruto nodded and sheathed the weapon, he then strapped it to his back and started moving forward, he nodded again at Nials who saluted back and once he passed her he ordered Nightwalker to dash away towards Menethil. It was a good thing that druid traveled a lot, because Nightwalker knew the roads now and there was no way he could get lost when the cat was with him.
The blond looked behind and saw the rest of the organization members following him and Silveneah with Seyah not far behind. He looked pass the group one last time at the camp and smiled, he met a lot of interesting people and made some friends, he never expected for someone like them to accept him like that. It made him feel happy, he had no doubts, there was no way he was going back home now…people needed him here.
Ten riders passed with great speed over the bridge leading towards Menethil harbor, the dwarf guards blinked as they saw that, the riders passed like lighting by them, it's like they were in a hurry or something was chasing them. The guards looked at each other and then at the port-city gates and then back at each other.
"Shimmering Winds." one of them said.
"Aye…always in an 'urry." the some replied shaking his head.
Naruto looked at his surroundings, at the buildings and at the guards patrolling the streets. There were more guards now due to the fact that it was the middle of the night. Everything was different now at night, there weren't so many people out and the port-city seemed peaceful and different from the busy commercial point it was during the morning. The group made their way towards the boats, more precisely towards the one that was ready to depart to Kalimdor.
As they reached a large boat the group stopped and Silin got of his horse and walked towards a crewmember that was checking some crates. The man heard Silin approaching and raised his head to look who it was, his eyes widened as he saw the mage. Naruto learned during their trip to Menethil that the Shimmering Winds were well known and respected by the Alliance.
"How can I help you?" the man asked looking at the mage.
"Do you have free cabins for a ten people?" asked the mage.
"Yes we have, do you desire to reach Dustwallow Marsh?" he asked.
Silin nodded. "Yes, we want to get there." he replied as he put his hand in his pocket and took out a small bag filled with coins. "We will pay a lot for our safe arrival there." he said.
The man looked at the bag and then turned around. "Captain!" he shouted and a muscular man walked down from the boat on the docks.
"What is it?" he asked.
"These people desire to reach Dustwallow March and will pay good." the crew man said.
The captain looked at Silin. "We were preparing to leave, we have free cabins…" he said as he turned around "Come on board." he told them.
Silin nodded and threw the small bag to the captain who caught it with ease. Naruto got of the nightsaber and then took Finia in his arms and helped her down. He then took out the container and looked at the cat that was growling at him. The blond laughed nervously as he looked at the nightsaber.
"I swear I won't forget to bring you out once we reach shore." he said. The cat seemed to accept the promise and disappeared in the container.
Naruto placed the container in his pocket and took Finia's hand, he then looked to see where Seyah was and saw her walking towards him. The blond grinned and took the huntresses hand as well and walked on board the ship. Finia moved her free hand behind her head and covered her face with a cowl, her silver hair could be seen coming out of her cowl.
The girls and Naruto walked on board and looked around. Naruto looked at the organization members and noted each one. There was Silin, the leader of the group – a human mage, there was Tyrasves – the night elf rogue, Kulian – the gnome warlock, Hindus – the human rogue, Hemastos – the dwarf warrior, he wasn't much of a talker and Czejin – the human paladin. The last two didn't talk very much and Naruto was glad that Czejin wasn't an arrogant bastard like the first paladin he met.
Silin was a man in his early thirties, he had brown hair, he had a strange collar like armor around his neck, he wore a light blue robe with many designs on it, his shoulder pads were like three in one, there was a pad over another sustained by magic. They were floating one above another, they were also colored in a light blue, his gloves were light blue and his gloves fingers were brown, his shoes were light blue and he had a staff in his hands with a strange circle at one end moving clockwise and crystal floating above it. (1)
Kulian had a black cowl over his head, Naruto had never seen his face. His shoulder guard had spikes coming out of it and strange white particles could be seen coming out of them, his gloves looked like claws and like his shoulder guards they were colored in a dark blue color. His robe was a mixture between black and gold and had a skull in the middle, his shoes where black. Naruto had never seen the warlock with a weapon so far, he presumed he had a dagger. (2)
Hindus had the same armor that Razor had the last time Naruto had met him, he had two daggers strapped to his waist, one was leaking green substance, poison, and the other was leaking fire from what it seemed. Hemastos wore the same armor as the dwarf, Von, he had a shield on his back with the design of a dragon's head and it was colored black with red lines, his sword resembled a scimitar.
Czejin, like Kulian, the blond had never seen his face. His face was covered by a plate helmet that seemed to be made out of crystals, his shoulder pads were a light purple and had crystal shards floating above his shoulders, his bracers were thicker than anyone's and had a crystal embalmed in them, his gloves were light purple, his chest armor had a blue crystal over his stomach and the armor itself had a strange design, his pants continued the chest armors design and his boots were surprisingly earthly brown. He had a large hammer strapped to his back. (3)
"Let me show you the free cabins." the captain said motioning to the group to follow him.
The group descended on the stairs until they reached the dormitory level of the ship. The captain told them that all the rooms are free since no one usually travels at night and after that he left. Naruto moved to the first room and opened the door, like in the first boat in which he had traveled, the room was fairly big and had two beds. The blond walked in follow by Finia.
"Princess, are you going to stay with him?" asked Silin somewhat confused.
"Of course I am." she said smiling "He is my boyfriend, mine and Seyah's…" she replied with a giggle. "Besides, I trust him fully…" she told the mage as she took the blond's arm and held on to it.
The blond smiled and placed his hand on her cheek making her smiled and lean her head on his hand. "Alright…take care of her…" the mage said as he started walking away.
"You don't mind if I stay here, right?" asked Seyah walking in.
The blond and Finia looked at her and smiled. "Of course not." giggled Finia.
"Sure you can stay." the blond said as he extended his hand to the night elf. The huntress smiled and took the hand and walked in.
"Sis, don't forget him." said Silveneah as she passed by the door, a few moments later the panthers head appeared.
"Sevin!" called Seyah "Come here…" she said placing her hands on her knees. The panther walked in and purr as he moved near its master's feet. The girl giggled at petted her pet.
"Alright you two, get comfortable." the blond said as he closed the door and locked it. He then walked to one of the beds and sat down closing his eyes and taking a deep breath to relax.
Naruto the proceeded to take his weapons of and placed them on the table, he then took his mask of and placed it on the weapons. He took his shoes off and got on the bed and leaned in it closing his eyes and sighing tiredly, he couldn't wait to sleep a little. He opened his eyes as he heard a metallic sound, he saw Seyah working on her chest armor, he raised an eyebrow.
"What are you doing?" asked Naruto looking at her.
The girl raised her head and smiled. "Taking of my armor, you don't expect me to sleep with this on me now do you?" she asked giggling.
Naruto's eyes widened. "Wait…do you…" he stopped asking as the girl removed her chest piece revealing a bra. The blond sighed.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"I thought you didn't have anything under that…" the blond replied with a shrug.
Seyah blushed. "Unlike other night elf's I wear a bra under my armor…" she said looking at the floor.
Naruto nodded and turned his head towards Finia, the girl had removed her cowl by now and she had placed her staff near the table. She then stretched and then looked at Naruto and smiled.
"How long will it take us to reach Dustwallow?" Naruto asked.
"Up to five days, depending on the weather." replied Finia. "Why is that?" she asked.
Naruto shrugged. "Just curios." he admitted.
"Umm…where will I sleep?" asked Seyah still standing in the same spot. Finia looked at her and Naruto did the same.
"You could sleep with Finia." the blond replied.
The girl in question thought of something and grinned towards the blond. "Better yet, you could sleep with Naruto." she said making the boy look at her. "We can take turns, one night I sleep with him and one night you sleep with him." she said.
"Ok." the huntress replied happily as she leaped towards the blond's bed. Naruto sighed and got out of the bed letting Seyah sleep near the wall, while the huntress got in bed Naruto walked over to Finia and sat on his knees in front of her.
"Sleep well my love." he said giving her a kiss on the lips which she returned.
"You too…" she replied.
The blond stood up and walked over to his bed which he was now temporarily sharing with Seyah. He got in the bed and covered himself and the huntress with the blanket. Once that was done he turned his head towards the girl who moved as close as she could to him. She moved her head close to him and captured his lips in a small passionate kiss. As they broke the kiss, Seyah placed her head on his chest and wrapped her arms around him.
"Sleep well my huntress." said the blond wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her closer to him, he could feel her breasts press on his stomach making him blush in the process and Seyah as well.
"You too foxy…" she replied, once again the blond thought he heard her purr. He chuckled thinking that she could purr.
Naruto started moving his had on her bare back, excluding the bras fabric of course. As the girl moved her head on his chest, her cyan hair fell on the blond's chest as well. Naruto never did say it but he liked her hair a lot, he moved his hand on her head and stared passing it through her hair. He was happy to be in this world. The blond kissed the girl on the head making her move her head on his chest in pleasure of the contact.
The blond moved his hand back on her back and continued trailing her skin sending shivers down her spine. She liked the feeling, it made her feel very good. She raised her head slightly and kissed the blond's neck making his smile, she then started moving her nose on the blond's neck making him shiver in delight. Grinning, the blond turned to face the wall and grabbed the girl by her waist and pulled her up to his level.
The blond looked in her eyes and moved closer kissing her on the lips and then pulled her body close to his. Once they broke the kiss Naruto put his nose on hers and smiled, she smiled as well as her hands started trailing his chest. The opened their eyes and looked at each other again before kissing once more. Once they broke the kiss for the third time Seyah placed her head under his neck and snuggled close to him.
"I love you Naruto." she said quietly, like whisper, she said it with all her heart and it warmed the blond inside.
"I love you too…Seyah…" he said surprising the girl and making her smile wide and hold him tighter, this was the first time he had told her that he loves her, it made her very happy.
The blond held the girl tight in his arms enjoying the warmth coming from her. He closed his eyes and let himself succumb to peaceful slumber. He wouldn't want to trade his life for anything now, he had what he always wanted, someone to love him. Two girls loved him deeply and he loved them both with all his heart. He would protect them to the very end.
Naruto sighed as he looked out the window, they had been at sea for four day now. He had slept in the same with both girls, each taking turns. He enjoyed those nights and the feeling of waking up and seeing one of the two girls in his arms. The blond looked down and turned around, he crouched down and looked at the panther.
Said panther looked back at the blond and tilted its head to the side and then yawned. Naruto grinned and started scratching the animal on the head making it purr. He stood up after that and turned to look out the window once more wondering when they will reach shore. He felt a pair of arms wrap around him and he turned around and saw Finia there.
The blond turned around and kissed her on the tip of her nose making the girl giggle in response. "How long till we reach land?" asked Naruto.
The girl shrugged. "Don't know, what you getting bored with us?" she asked playfully.
"No…I just felt the urge to fight something…and kill…" he said making Finia look at him surprised. "I think Kyuubi is to blame for this."
"What? Killing isn't bad…" the fox countered.
"So slaughtering an entire village isn't bad…" the blond deadpanned.
"Might I remind you that I was controlled and that slaughter is at a whole other level than normal killing…" the fox replied with a huff.
"Naruto?" Finia asked seeing the distant look in the blond's eyes.
"Oh sorry…had a small talk with furball." the blond said with a grin and ignoring the obscenities the fox was throwing at him.
"Hey guess what!" Seyah called as she entered the room and made Naruto and Finia turn and look at her.
"What?" asked the blond.
"The captain said that we will reach shore in thirty minutes." she replied with a smile.
Naruto grinned as he broke the hug with Finia. "Alright, let's get ready then." he said taking his mask from the table and placing it back on his face. He then proceeded to take his weapons and strap them to his waist. Finally he took the sword Oslight gave him and strapped it to his back.
Once he was done he turned around and saw that Seyah was already ready, she was holding her bow in her hands and Sevin was standing next to her. He then looked at Finia and saw that she was also ready, he cowl was over her head masking her face and the staff in her hands. The blond nodded satisfied and walked to the door, he opened it and stepped out followed by the two girls and the panther.
The small group made their way up to the deck and once they reached it they looked around trying to spot their destination. The blond looked with wide eyes as the city of Theramore appeared. He could see a light tower to the right side of the walls, a massive tower in the middle of the city, a keep near the tower and a large dock with many ships.
The blond looked behind and saw that the rest of the organization members were on the deck waiting to reach shore. He looked around and spotted Hindus sitting on the ships edge with…a fishing pole in his hands. The blond blinked in wonder. The rogue was sitting on the edge of the ship fishing, he didn't mind the fact that the wind was blowing hard and it could throw him overboard.
Naruto shook his head, some of these guys were really strange. A few days ago he found out that the paladin and the dwarf had gotten drunk and started dancing on the cantinas tables. The leader of the group, Silin, was looking at them and shaking his head, sometimes Naruto saw him slap his forehead. The other members just laughed at their comrades.
As the boat reached Theramore's docks Naruto and the rest of the group walked of the vessel and on to the docks. The blond looked around and saw guards patrolling the docks, but unlike the Stormwind guards this ones had white plate armor, and a tabard with the design on a golden anchor on it. There were other people around as well, working on the docks, repairing ships, moving crates on or out from ships.
The blond saw Silin walk towards the tower and started following him with the rest of the group. As they left the docks they headed straight towards the gryphon master. As they got there Silin walked to the dwarf and started talking with him while the rest waited for him to finish. Once he was done talking he turned to the group and took a deep breath.
"Alright, the gryphon master said he will give us gryphons to ride to Tanaris, but he has only five." he said.
"Two people on a gryphon, that isn't too bad." said Hindus as the rest agreed.
"Alright, we will go like this. Hindus with Tyrasves, Silveneah with Czejin, Kulian with Naruto, Hemastos with Seyah and I will ride a gryphon with the princess." the mage said.
"I can ride a gryphon…" said Finia.
"Yes but you don't know the way to Tanaris." replied the mage.
"Yeah…" Finia said looking down and blushing.
"Alright, everyone follow me." he said as he entered the gryphon stables.
As they went inside they followed the gryphon master that showed them five gryphons. Naruto followed the warlock and let Kulian get on the gryphons back first. He then mounted up and the gnome turned the gryphon and hit it lightly telling it to move towards the exit. As they got outside Naruto saw that everyone was coming out and then when he saw Silin take of the rest of the members ordered their gryphons to take of.
In a matter of seconds Naruto was experiencing riding the gryphon once more. He looked down at the ground as they were flying and saw that they were flying above a swamp. Dustwallow Marsh in other words, he could vaguely see human's down there and other creatures. It wasn't long before Kulian turned the gryphon and started flying above the water passing by the mountains.
It wasn't long and Naruto could see the desert appear in front of him. The gryphon turned right and passed over what looked like a small port and then started flying above the sands. Naruto looked around, the sand stretched as far as the eye can see, there were mountains to the right and left and the sea was behind them. In front of them Naruto could see a large jungle, or at least he could see the top of the trees. He read about that area, if he remembered correctly that was Un'Goro Crater.
Naruto felt the gryphon started to descend and looked down to see where they were. He spotted a large city, the buildings were made out of stone, there was a wall surrounding the city and a few towers along the walls. But what surprised Naruto was the fact that goblins patrolled the city and that the goblins were the guards. He had never seen a goblin up until now.
The goblins were small green creatures, long pointy ears, almost like a Night Elf's only longer. They had a leather vest on them, leather pants and gloves. A club in their hands but said club had spikes coming out of it. The goblins were as tall as a gnome, maybe a bit taller. As the gryphon landed on the ground Naruto got of the creature and walked away a little.
He took a small container out of his pocket and moved his hand over it. Nightwalker appeared out of the container, the saber yawned and then stretched before looking at the blond. Naruto took another container out and from it he took a piece of meat which he gave to the hungry animal. The saber gladly accepted it and started devouring the piece of meat.
"Naruto…" Silin said as he walked over to the blond. "I am going to take the princess to the hiding place with the rest of the guys."
"What about me?" asked Naruto.
"I have a mission for you." he said looking at the blond.
"Hmm…what do I have to do?" asked Naruto looking at the man before him.
"We have a member here in Tanaris, but we lost contact with him some time ago, his name is Maleron." the mage replied to the blond's question.
"You want me to find him right?" Naruto asked.
The mage nodded. "Yes, and I want you to take some jobs from the city."
"Why is that?" asked Naruto raising an eyebrow.
"You need to get stronger for what has to come, take jobs and started working on them…once you become stronger we will teach you everything we know and everything you can learn." the mage replied.
Naruto thought for a second, it wasn't all that bad. "Alright…but once I find this Maleron…how do I find the hiding place?" he asked.
"That's simple, tell Maleron to come with you to the Treacherous Sands." replied the mage "From there he will know where to go."
Naruto nodded and looked at Seyah and Silveneah. "You two are going with them?" he asked.
They shook their heads. "I'm also going to take some missions here and help you out." said the huntress.
"You know what I don't understand." Finia said with a pout "Why can't I stay and work with Naruto and Seyah?" she asked.
"Don't worry, we will handle jobs from Steamweedle Port." the mage replied "Besides, we are in neutral territory, Horde passes here as well and we can't let them see you." he told the girl who pouted again.
"You know, it's not fair…you think I'm weak or something?" she asked with a glare.
Silin started waving his hands in front of him. "That's not true, we are only thinking of your well being." he said.
"Finia." Naruto called making the girl look at him. The blond walked towards her and stopped in front of her. "He is right, we can't risk having you exposed…" he said putting his hand under her chin.
"But I want to help you." she said sadly.
Naruto smiled. "Don't worry, you will later. Get strong while I search for this Maleron, alright?" he asked as the girl sighed and then nodded.
"Come back safely, alright?" she said as she lowered the blond's mask a little and placed a kiss on his cheek.
"Don't worry, I will." the blond said as he turned around and started walking inside the city followed by the saber and the two night elf's.
As Naruto passed the wall and entered the city he looked around trying to figure out where to start. They told him that Maleron disappeared in Tanaris but they didn't tell him where exactly, maybe they didn't know as well. Naruto started walking towards the tavern, from what he learned from the druid was that in the tavern you can get a lot of answers.
As the blond reached the tavern he saw a familiar figure looking over a map. Naruto's eyes widened when he realized that the familiar figure was none other than Zagark. Grinning Naruto walked over to him, the druid, feeling that someone was approaching him, turned his head and his eyes widened when he saw Naruto.
"Naruto?" he asked shocked "What are you doing here?"
"Zagark!" shouted Silveneah as she ran to him and entangled him in a hug.
"Silveneah and Seyah too?" he asked "What brings you to this distant place?" he asked curious.
"We had a lot of trouble." Naruto said.
"That I know, you weren't at the hiding place when I got there." the druid said calmly. "But you were right to leave…the Scarlet Crusade could have caught you if you didn't." he said.
Naruto nodded. "Yeah…but anyway…our troubles just continued after that."
"Do tell." Zagark said pushing the night elf warrior of him, or at least trying, when he saw that she wouldn't move he sighed and placed his hand on her shoulder and looked back at Naruto.
The blond started telling him what happened after he and Finia reached Refugee Point, the druid was shocked to learn what he had passed through, that he had been through the Monastery, that the undead captured him and the girls that loved him, he went wide eyes when he heard that the princess was sharing him with Seyah. He was surprised when he heard that some of the guys from Plaguelands were here.
"Naruto…where is Silin and the guys?" he asked.
"He went with Finia to the hiding place here and they will take missions from the port to the east of town." he said.
The druid nodded and then looked back at the map. "What are you doing here? And why didn't you come search for me and Finia?" he asked.
"When we got to the hiding place we found out that the Crusade stole from us, over ten thousand gold pieces and some valuable weapons…" he then looked up at Seyah and saw the bow. "I see that the bow is in good hands." he said.
Naruto laughed. "Well I thought that I should try and learn how to use a bow and took it from the rack, but I gave it to Seyah figuring it would help her more." he admitted.
"It's a good thing that you took it, it's a valuable item, did you by any chance take a staff as well?" he asked.
Naruto nodded. "Yeah…Finia has it now." he replied as the druid nodded.
"Good…well…after we found out that the items were stolen we started tracking down the one that stole from us and recovering every single thing that was stolen." the druid said scratching his head.
"And how much did you recover?" asked Naruto.
"Everything…Leader and the rest of the team is somewhere here in Kalimdor…" replied Zagark.
"So what are you doing here?" he asked again.
"Leader sent me to Silithus to contact some members that are there." he replied.
"Why is that?" asked the blond.
"Classified, but I can tell you that a storm is coming…" he said looking at the blond seriously. "You need to be careful from now on, I don't know what else can happen, if what you say is true then Kel'Thuzad won't stop at nothing to find you…" he said.
"Don't worry, I'll watch my back…" he said with a grin.
"Good…take care of Nightwalker for me alright?" he said as he scratched the saber behind its ears.
"Sure will…" Naruto replied.
"Also, you said you are looking for Maleron, right?" the druid asked as Naruto nodded. "If you want to know, last thing I know is that he was searching through the desert, near the mountain over there." he said pointing towards a strange mountain that was at the east of the city.
"What is that place?" asked Naruto.
"The Caverns of Time, but take my advice and stay clear of it…" the druid said.
"Why is that?" asked Naruto curious.
"You aren't ready to go there…not yet…" he said as he closed his map and placed it back in his pocket.
The druid then turned around and started leaving, he raised his head up saying good bye. Silveneah looked at her sister and smiled, she then turned around and started walking towards the druid.
"Sis, where are you going?" the huntress asked making the druid stop and look at the warrior.
"Going to help Zagark…Naruto, take care of my sister…" she said with a smile "…and don't do anything … perverted." she said laughing as the blond started chocking on the air he was breathing.
"I don't think it's wise to come with me." Zagark said as the woman called for her nightsaber.
"I think it is." she said mounting up. "Get on." she told the druid.
Zagark shrugged and got on the nightsaber's back. The woman waved to her sister and Naruto before dashing away with the druid. In a matter of seconds the two disappeared from view. Naruto looked at the huntress and placed his hand on her shoulder making her look at him.
"Come on, lets find something to do and find that Maleron." he said.
A/N: Alright…well…I have nothing to put in the authors note, maybe apart from the fact that I made Naruto and Seyah bond a little and made them go on the mission alone so that they can bond more.
Also, as a reviewer said (I forgot to mention this) but indeed there are placed in Azeroth that has mobs at lvl 70, such places are Caverns of Time (in Tanaris), Kharazan (in Deadwind Pass), a recently opened island to the north of Plaguelands, but I won't go there until way later and finally Zul'Aman (Ghostlands, a area right above Eastern Plaguelands)
Now…the levels are still the same (for Naruto, Seyah and Finia)……finally I'm sorry if there are mistakes, grammatical errors and so forth……
(1) Tier four (those that play WoW know what I mean...)
(2) Uncomplete Tier Four
(3) Tier Five
Also, I will explain why everyone has this type of armor and so one later, to let everyone know the portal to Outland opened only a few years ago in the Fic meaning that the Outland bosses are all alive (that's why the Organization is battling in Blade's Edge Mountain, to get to Gruul) I made it like this for a reason which you will see later.
