Hello all Storm here with a new story! Here we'll final see Naruto going to Fiore along with becoming Dragon Slayer as well but being taught by a dragon that's still around in Fiore as well. Along with Naruto joining a different guild besides Fairy Tail. So, without further ado.
I own nothing
Walking through the forest of Fiore, were two twelve-year-old children, a boy and a girl.
The boy had bright spiky blonde hair, lightly tanned skin, ocean blue eyes with slit pupils, elongated canines, and three whisker-like marks on each cheek. His attire consisted of black sandals, black shorts with red flame designs on the sides, and a black shirt with matching flame designs, like his shorts.
The girl had long dark red hair, pulled together in a pair of a large waist-length braids that were tied together behind her back, fair skin, and wide red eyes. Along with wearing a bright red dress, red slippers, and red gloves.
These two were Naruto Uzumaki and Flare Corona, former residents of Sun Village, a village of giants. The two children having left their home, in order to explore more of the world, along with Naruto wanting to gain experience as a Mage. After finishing his training under his adoptive father, as well as the creator and guardian of Sun Village, Atlas Flame the Hell Flame Dragon.
*Flashback*
Naruto stood before the Eternal Flame, otherwise known as Atlas Flame and his adoptive father. The Hell Flame Dragon having long since passed on, with part of his spirit remaining in the Eternal Flame, acting as a protector of Sun Village.
"You have done well Naruto. You have mastered everything I have to teach you and become a fully-fledged Hell Flame Dragon Slayer." Atlas Flame said, congratulating his adoptive son on how far he's come in his training.
Having grown from being that orphaned infant, the giants had found, into a powerful Dragon Slayer, along with proving to be a natural prodigy as a Mage. While also possessing a great drive to train and push himself to always grow stronger. Rather than become complacent from his natural abilities, as Atlas Flame has seen many other prodigies do.
"Thanks dad, but I couldn't have gotten where I am now, without your help." Naruto said smiling, knowing he owed a lot to Atlas Flame for not only teaching him, but raising him as well.
"I merely taught you what you know, what matters was that you had the determination and the drive to learn. But now I have nothing left to teach you, and all that's left is for you to go out into the world and gain the experience you need to continue growing." Replied Atlas Flame, given Dragon Slayers tend to grow, evolve, and adapt the most when they're in battle.
"I know and I will. I'll show all of Fiore the power of the Hell Flame Dragon Slayer and make you proud, dad." Naruto swore, wanting to show everyone how powerful the flames of hell can really be.
Atlas Flame nodded at his son's words, before smirking once the whiskered blonde started walking away to get ready to set out.
"I already am." Atlas Flame stated, once Naruto was out of hearing range, knowing no matter what his son does, he's already proud of how far he's come.
The Hell Flame Dragon then chuckled, knowing if this had been four hundred years ago, and prior to his trip through the Eclipse Gate, he would have scoffed at the idea of taking on a Dragon Slayer.
But after his meeting with Igneel's son and seeing how strong he had become; Atlas Flame was intrigued at the idea of training his own Dragon Slayer as well. But had never found one he considered worthy of passing on his knowledge to, that is until he met Naruto.
'Is this how you felt Igneel? Training your son, and watching him grow into the man he will become?' Atlas Flame thought, wondering if this is how his old friend felt, when he trained Natsu.
If so, he could now understand why Igneel had become the dragon who loved humans, more than any other.
*End Flashback*
After Naruto had packed up all his belongings, Atlas Flame had enhanced his Hell Flame Dragon Slayer Magic even further, by infusing part of his own flames and spirit within Naruto. With the Dragon Slayer having then set out, along with being accompanied by his childhood friend, Flare Corona. With Flare wishing to join her friend and crush on his travels, along with the chance to see more of the world, outside of their village.
With Flare also having her own magic, known as Crimson Hair. Which allowed her to manipulate her hair anyway she desires, with it having been a blessing from the Eternal Flame.
Along with the chance to meet more people the same size as them, as opposed to the giants they've lived with, their entire lives. With the two being shocked and amazed at the various towns they've seen so far, not used to seeing buildings and people the same size as them.
Though after some time of walking through the forest, the two children stopped in surprise, when they came across what looked like a small village.
"What do you think this village is doing all the way out here, Naruto-kun?" Flare asked, tilting her head curiously, confused at them suddenly coming across a village in the middle of nowhere.
"I'm not sure. Come on, let's see what this place is." Said Naruto, also curious of why a village was out here, along with wanting to see what it was like.
Nodding, the two children walked up and entered the village, with them seeing that up close, the design of the place seemed to have a tribal theme. With the people wearing matching tribal clothing as well, while Naruto and Flare noticed that everyone seemed to have a tattoo or marking of a cat, somewhere on their bodies or clothes.
"Flare, I think this place might be one of those guilds, we've heard about." Said Naruto, the two having heard about places, called guilds, that Mages could join to go on Jobs and earn Jewels.
With it being easy to identify the members of a guild, just by looking for the guild mark on their body or clothes. And given how everyone here, seems to have the same cat marking, they must have found the headquarters of one.
Flare nodded in agreement, as they looked around in amazement, that they were actually in the headquarters of a guild.
As they walked through the village, Naruto and Flare soon caught sight of a girl their age accompanied by, strangely enough, a walking white cat.
She was a petite girl with fair skin, long dark blue hair that reaches down to her waist, with two bangs framing her face which reach down to her chest, and brown eyes. She wore a simple dress, with two wavy stripes running across it, and ending in small pointed edges at the bottom. Around her arms and legs, she wore wing-like attachments. While her Guild Mark was located on her right shoulder.
"Excuse me, but you two aren't allowed to be here. Only guild members are allowed here." Said the cat, much to the shock of Naruto and Flare at actually hearing the cat speak.
"Carla, be nice, I'm sure they're just passing through." The girl said to her companion, before smiling at the two.
"I'm sorry about Carla, she's really nice, but also pretty strict." Said the girl, with Naruto and Flare returning the smile with their own.
"It's fine. I'm Naruto Uzumaki and this is my friend, Flare Corona." Naruto said as he introduced himself and Flare to the two.
"It's nice to meet you." Said Flare, while tilting her head and smiling.
"It's nice to meet you both, as well. I'm Wendy Marvell and this is my friend, Carla, and we're both members of Cait Shelter." Wendy replied.
"Cait Shelter? Is that the name of this guild?" Flare asked, while looking around, as Wendy nodded in confirmation.
"Yeah. If you want, I can introduce you both to Master Roubaul, come on." Said Wendy, motioning them to follow her and Carla, the three children and cat going to a cat-shaped pavilion, in the middle of the village.
Inside the pavilion was a wooden floor, while its fabric walls were sustained by a wooden frame, consisting of several large beams. The furniture was exotic, with carpets and clothes bearing ornamental patterns, along with several cat-shaped objects as well. While sitting in the center of the pavilion, was an old man.
He was a small, slim elderly man with a long white beard, complete with a mustache, which extended up on his face's sides, making for a large pair of sideburns, while also having two bushy eyebrows as well. On his forehead was a tattoo, composed of a dot surrounded by two arched stripes. His attire was reminiscent of a tribal chief, with a large headgear composed of feathers, with more, lighter-colored feathers adorning the back of his waist. He had a light cloth tied circling his waist, paired with loose dark pants reaching below his knees and simple shoes, and his chest was bare, with a necklace seemingly made of massive teeth around his neck, hanging over it. He also sported a large bracelet on each arm's bicep, and some bandages wrapped around the forearms.
"Master Roubaul!" Wendy said, smiling at her guild master, with Roubaul returning the smile before looking at Naruto and Flare, curiously.
"Wendy, Carla. And who are these two?" Asked Roubaul, wondering who these two children were and what they were doing here.
"These are Naruto and Flare. They were passing through and I offered to bring them here, to meet you." Wendy answered.
"Hmm, well what I can I do for you two youngsters?" Roubaul asked, with Naruto and Flare looking at each other for a moment, before looking back at the guild master.
"Well at first, we wanted to find out about this village and why it was all the way out here, away from any other towns. But now that we know it's a guild, do you think it'd be possible for us to join Cait Shelter?" Naruto asked, as both he and Flare had become interested in the idea of joining a guild, to meet new people and go out on Jobs together.
The question surprised and intrigued Roubaul, given this is the first time anyone has shown and asked to join Cait Shelter, after he created the illusion of a Legal Guild to allow Wendy to join. Now these two children are asking to join as well, with Roubaul thinking it over for a moment, before eventually nodding.
"I see no reason, why not. Welcome to Cait Shelter." Roubaul said, while pulling out a guild stamp and giving them both their guild marks, with Naruto's on his right shoulder in red and Flare on her right hip in red as well.
Roubaul figured there wouldn't be any harm in allowing them to join, especially if it meant Wendy and Carla would be able to make some real friends with others, before his spirit eventually passes on.
While Naruto and Flare smiled in excitement at seeing they were now officially members of a guild, while Wendy smiled as well at getting new guildmates.
"Welcome to Cait Shelter Naruto, Flare. If you don't mind me asking, what magic do you two use?" Wendy asked, curious of what type of magic they both used.
"I use Crimson Hair Magic, that allows me to manipulate my hair anyway I want, along with manipulating its temperature to burn hot." Flare answered.
"And I'm a Dragon Slayer! The Hell Flame Dragon Slayer, after being trained by my dad, Atlas Flame." Said Naruto, grinning, much to Wendy's shock at meeting another Dragon Slayer, while Roubaul was intrigued at this information.
Learning that Naruto was a Dragon Slayer, like Wendy, and taught by one of the few remaining dragons in Ishgar.
"Y-you're a Dragon Slayer too?!" Wendy asked, having not expected to meet another Dragon Slayer, while Naruto and Flare were shocked at Wendy's question.
"Wait, are you a Dragon Slayer also?" Asked Naruto, with Wendy nodding at the question.
"Yeah, I'm the Sky Dragon Slayer. I was taught by my adoptive mother, Grandeeney. Do…do you know where she is?" Wendy asked, hopeful at getting a chance to learn where Grandeeney is, only to be disappointed when Naruto shook his head.
"No, sorry. I've never even heard of Grandeeney, the only other dragon I've heard about is the Fire Dragon King, Igneel." Naruto replied, having learned about his father's old friend, but never hearing about any other dragons.
"O-oh." Wendy muttered, disappointed at not getting a lead on where Grandeeney is located.
"But just because I've never heard of her, doesn't mean someone else hasn't. Since if neither of us knew there were other Dragon Slayers, I'm sure there are plenty of others out there, we haven't met. One of them might know where Grandeeney is, and if not, then you just have to keep searching until you do find her." Said Naruto smiling at the bluenette, with Wendy feeling a little better at his words and nodded with a smile.
"And if you want, we can help you find her as well. The four of us working together, as a team." Flare added, smiling, while Wendy was now looking at them in surprise.
"A team?" Wendy asked, with Naruto and Flare nodding.
"Yeah, since we're now part of the same guild, we can form a team and go out on Jobs together. Along with helping you find Grandeeney." Said Naruto, with Wendy looking between the two in shock, before It soon turned into joy and happiness.
"Yeah! The four of us together as a team!" Wendy said, smiling brightly, happy at not only getting new guildmates, but also new friends and a team.
"Hmph, I suppose you two can have the privilege of working with Wendy and I." Said Carla, while crossing her arms with a huff, only agreeing since Wendy's already agreed to it, and she didn't want to leave her alone with two people they've just met.
Roubaul looked at the three children with a small smile on his face, glad to know that when his spirit finally passes on, Wendy and Carla will have friends there to help them.
*Timeskip-Two Weeks*
Two weeks have passed since Naruto and Flare joined Cait Shelter and formed a team with Wendy and Carla. With the new team having spent time together to get to know each other better, though it was clear to Wendy and Flare that Naruto and Carla didn't get along at all.
Given their conflicting personalities, with Carla being strict and serious, whereas Naruto was exuberant, boisterous, and unorthodox, along with showing signs of being a rebel. Since Naruto wasn't exactly one to do things by the books and simply did whatever he wanted or believed was right.
Naruto had also trained with Wendy to further her Dragon Slayer training, having learned that she wasn't able to complete her training under Grandeeney before she vanished. Making Naruto thankful that Atlas Flame didn't mysteriously vanished and helped him complete his training.
Now though, after two weeks, the newly formed team had decided to go out on their first Job together, with it being a rather simple one of Wyvern Extermination. None of them knowing just how difficult it's really going to be.
So, what did you think, good. Yep Naruto has become the Hell Flame Dragon Slayer after being trained by Atlas Flame, before setting out into the world, along with being joined by Flare (also given this takes place before the seven year timeskip, they're both still children) with the two being amazed at everything they see. Before eventually stumbling onto the headquarters of Cait Shelter, where they meet Wendy and Carla, before meeting Roubaul and asking to join Cait Shelter, which Roubaul allows seeing it as a chance for Wendy and Carla to make some friends after his spirit passes on. With the four soon after forming their own team, before setting out on their first Job, Wyvern Extermination. So, review if you liked go away if you didn't.
Storm out
