AN: Hey guys, I'm back. Sorry for keeping ya'll waiting, but I present to you Chapter 2!
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING, except OC's.
The Moon shone through the forest canopy. Loud, thundering footsteps made their way through the night. The centaur; half man half horse, ran as he clutched his left arm. He had orange-green pauldrons and gauntlets on his arms, and a great battle axe in his right hand.
Following him, a slender figure was lit up by the moon. She had a black hood on, along with dark blue pauldrons, gauntlets, boots, and armor on her stomach which showed little skin. She had pale, almost purple, skin and white hair. In her hands was a beautifully crafted black bow with 2 gems on the ends.
She shot and arrow, which seemed to be glowing, at the centaur. It struck his back, causing him to grunt in pain, but kept moving. She knocked another arrow, which was actually glowing faintly, and shot. It hit the centaur in one of his legs, which ice had immediately formed on, which caused his pace to stumble.
She drew in a sharp breath, and exhaled, causing a huge gust of wind to rush at the injured beast-man. It hit him, throwing him into a tree, and causing him to grunt again in pain.
She stood over him, of silhouette illuminated by the moon. He stared up, defiance in his eyes, as the nocked another arrow, and let it fly.
Naruto's head shot up, as he awoke with a stabbing pain his head. He immediately cried out and grabbed his head, new images and memories and faces flowing through his head.
He tried to blink out the spots in his vision as the pain slowly ebbed away. He looked around, noticing he was still in the cavern, moonlight showing through a small hole in the center of the roof.
He stood up, and his eyes fell on the scroll. He could feel it calling to him, beckoning him to come closer. He slowly walked towards, wary of what happened last time.
He bent down…. and picked it up. He flinched, but nothing came. He exhaled as relief washed over him. He attached the scroll to his back with some wire, and turned around, suddenly noticing a new door that wasn't there before.
He walked forward, noticing light reflecting off the corridor walls, and unconsciously sped up. He was blinded for a second, before his eyes adjusted to the torches on the walls.
The room had carved walls, with wooden tables and chairs, but no one is sight. Then, an object out of the corner of his eye caught his attention, as he made his way to a steel table in the corner. On it was several items.
First, two sealing scrolls, sitting next to each other. Next, a red oval shaped object with spikes jutting out of it, along with a note.
He picked up the note, which had strange symbols on it, that he could understand for some reason. It read:
To whoever is reading this: The object before you is an object of great power, which can only be wielded by the greatest of men (or women). It is known as The Heart of Tarrasque. It can grant its user tremendous strength, and healing capabilities. But beware, once absorbed, you can never let go of the Heart. And there are those who would seek it out to make it their own. Use it with great care.
Sincerely, T.M.
Naruto blinked, before he gazed at the Heart. It pulsed with power, beating slowly on the table. Then, he turned his attention back to the two scrolls laying next to the Heart. He grabbed the first one, and his eyes bulged at its contents. Inside were dozens of blueprints, or recipes as his mind told him, for weapons and armor of immense power.
The description of each one made him practically salivate at the thought of them. He quickly sealed it inside a storage seal on his left arm, before grabbing the other scroll.
This one nearly blew his mind. Inside were dozens and dozens of strange items; for which he strangely knew their names and capabilities, such as Faerie Fire and Clarity. There were also maps with descriptions of where they could be found.
Naruto also sealed the scroll in his left arm.
He turned his attention back to the Heart. "Heart of Tarrasque huh." He muttered to himself. Very carefully, he laid his hand on the Heart, which seemed to beat more rapidly at his touch.
"So, what now?" he wondered aloud. He world exploded in pain as the heart seemed to turn into a red and black essence, which was slowly absorbed into his chest.
Several moments later, Naruto regained his senses, and was shocked. He grew several inches taller, and his muscles grew and became more compact. Whereas before he was 5'4'' and 124 pounds; now he was 5'10'' and 165 pounds. Naruto simply shook his head at the revelation.
1 hour later
Naruto had made it into the village before he noticed it was night, as few people were roaming the streets. He immediately went behind the Hokage monument to his secret training ground; one not even his sensei knew of.
He stood in the clear, wondering what to do, before he made a decision. A risky decision.
Going the several sets of hand seals, Naruto pushed his chakra to his hands and called two words. Two words that would change not only his life, but the Elemental Nations.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
AN: How was that? Now I know the chapter was short, but I'm busier than you think! Also, I still don't know the parings yet, but I'm thinking about it. Just let me know in the comments what ya'll think.
Until next time, Stay Freaky.
