Freebies and Meeting the Fairies
Naruto woke up with a groan. He had a horrid nightmare about yesterday. He knew he wouldn't want to keep fighting the Bijuu, but he doubted that he had a choice. He looked around the room he was currently in. It was a sleek white with multiple desks and chairs around the room. Truly the only noticeable thing was the red door in front of his bed, oh, and Sasuke unconscious in the bed next to him, yeah, he couldn't forget about that.
Naruto got out of the bed before frowning. His clothes were in tatters. There were two giant holes in the stomach and chest area, before they split off to form small cuts all around it. He sighed before walking over to the door. As he reached for the doorknob he heard a familiar voice.
"Where are we," Sasuke asked.
Naruto shrugged not really caring.
Sasuke just grunted before hopping out of bed. He too grumbled at his clothes before walking over to Naruto. As they opened the door they came face to face with a frog like creature.
It was short and was quite slim. It had a thin neck and dark, elongated spots on the upper part of it and the on back of its head, as well as on part of its cheeks. It wore a common uniform consisting of a wide-collared, dark blue jacket with red trimmings over a plain, lighter robe reaching down to its feet. It had a small elongated hat on its head that matched its jacket, which bore a circular ornament seemingly made of metal on its front.
"Hello, my name is Nadal. Please follow me, as the Magic Council wishes to speak with you," the creature said.
Naruto and Sasuke nodded before following the frog. They walked down a short hallway that had azure walls that stretched to form a domed roof. It had circular windows with your common square or rectangle window scattered few-in-far between.
As they approached a door Nadal grew even tenser.
"This door leads to the Magic Council, be on your best behavior."
Nadal pushed open the door revealing an open space that stretched high into the sky. It had azure walls that grew darker as the high shadows overtook them. High up in the space was a blue Magic formula that allowed eight people to stand. They were to high up to see their exact appearances; however you could see that they wore very grandeur clothing just by seeing the way it looked from the shadows.
"Bow before the Magic Council," Nadal said.
Sasuke and Nadal both bowed, but Naruto just stared at the eight people. Nadal frowned at the blatant disrespect while Sasuke had to hold in the urge to face palm. Naruto hated authority; he called the Hokages granny and old man after all, so why would he listen to these guys? This may be tough to deal with.
Sasuke couldn't correct his mistake however, as a cough was heard from above. They looked up to see the figure who coughed. It was a big man, but they couldn't tell whether or not they were annoyed or outraged, from the invisible look on his face, but from the sound of the cough it was the former.
"You may leave Nadal," the figure spoke in a gruff voice, confirming it to be a man.
Nadal nodded, before glaring at Naruto briefly and walking out of the room. The meeting continued from there.
"Who are you," the figure spoke taking out some sort of notepad, or so Sasuke assumed.
Naruto cocked his head to this side.
"Don't you guys have a list of all the people in Fiore," he asked.
"Yes, but you two are not on it," the man responded with slight annoyance.
Sasuke had to face palm this time. Naruto again forgot they had never been born nor lived in Fiore for a long time. They were training with Gods basically the entire time and then they were travelers, of course no one recorded them for the Fiore's population list. He had to stop this before the Council lost their exceptional control.
"Excuse my friend; he is not the….smartest of people. Our names are Sasuke Uchiha, me, and Naruto Namikaze, my friend."
The man nodded, seemingly writing the names down before letting the item fall. Once it reached the Magic formula at his feet it disappeared, probably to be logged into the population books.
"Now, as for the incident in Yamnesh town," said a smaller figure, it looked like an old man. "We have imprisoned one of the 'Ghost Brothers,' Rang, and wish to know why Fong was covered in sand before being taken away by a woman, according to the report given by First Division Commander Alexander."
"Yes this is true," Sasuke said, although he barely remembered that part of the encounter.
"Fong was going after a lacrima in Yamnesh town with his brother, Rang. My friend and I were low on money and saw their wanted posters, so we decided to turn them in for a little cash. After overhearing a conversation about them going after a lacrima in the town we scouted around for a little bit, trying to find anything that might house something of value. Finding it in the chapel we took up posts waiting to see if the Rune Knights positioned there could handle it. They couldn't. The brother's easily dispatched of them and took off into the building. We followed them. After a very long and boring battle I doubt you care about Fong managed to escape from me and get to the lacrima. He implanted it inside of himself, and was possessed by the beast within it. It was a sand spirit," Sasuke said, purposely leaving out the fact it was Shukaku, that they knew the spirit, and that it was a Bijuu capable of destroying this entire place with one of its weakest attacks.
"The beast then fought us, and it nearly had us until my friend here tried to blow it up, but also succeeded in blowing up the entire chapel. Once we reached the ground we clashed again however after the clash the sand receded back into Fong's chest and the lady took off with him. We blacked out after that," Sasuke said finishing his long monologue.
The man nodded at this before looking at them quizzically.
"Your story says you were trying to help the town, all the proof backs it, and our Rune Knights got a good look at the body of Rang and Fong confirming it was them. Therefore, you shall not be held responsible for any of this. You will also be getting the bounty of the combined pay of the 'Ghost Brothers' as even though you only caught one you gave us very valuable information. Another favor from us is that there are new clothes in your room. Change into them when you get back. Lastly, you will be required to stay here for a few days to get your registration as citizen's in order," a woman said.
The two nodded.
"That is all, you may leave."
Sasuke bowed again before leaving, but Naruto just trotted out the room without the slightest show of respect. As they left the room they saw two teens around their age and an old man walk in front of them.
One was a girl with beautiful brown eyes and flowing scarlet hair. She wore armor and a blue long skirt underneath it. She was very slim, and was developing in certain areas. She wore black boots. There was a blue marking of a fairy with a tail on her armor and, even though it was unseen to the boys, on her left arm.
The second girl was also quite attractive. She had long white hair that was tied in a ponytail, which forced it a little higher making it reach her mid back. She wore a punk-gothic style. She wore a black tank top that did little to hide her growing bust. She also wore dark boots that reached up to her thighs and had on black short shorts with a silver belt. Just above her boots was a white guild marking of a fairy with a tail.
The old man was something completely different however. He was extremely short, and elderly. He had black eyes and was growing bald with only the outer rims of his head containing white hair. He also had a thick white mustache. He wore a white tunic with the symbol of that fairy again on the left collar and black pants all of which was covered by a normal white coat with white fur around the edge and the Ten Wizard Saints' symbol on the back.
Naruto and Sasuke weren't very impressed, until they felt the Magic pouring off them. While they had more Magic in capacity than the two girls, theirs was more refined than their own. However, the old man's was insane. It was enormous, especially for a human. The only person they could compare it to was Rai and Kai's, and even though theirs easily dwarfed his, for a human this was impressive. Naruto could only name four beings that he knew that could beat this man in sheer Magic capacity. His amount of Magic dwarfed even theirs, although they bet that it was because he had trained so hard. You could increase your Magic capacity by training after all.
As they walked past them a brief look at the old man was all it took. He was smiling at them.
"Hello my boys, who are you," he asked.
"Naruto Namikaze."
"Sasuke Uchiha."
"Nice to meet ya. My name is Makarov Dreyar, Master of Fairy Tail." Naruto and Sasuke stared at him blankly telling him something that he wasn't expecting.
"I'm surprised you don't know what it is. It's the most famous, or infamous depending on how you look at it, guild in Fiore. The number one guild," Makarov said.
Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other. They had been looking for a guild to join, and if it was the number one guild in Fiore it seemed like a good place to get a challenge. However they had one question.
"How do you join," they asked simultaneously.
"Well you just go up to the guild and ask to join it."
Naruto smiled. Sasuke on the other hand just smirked; of course they'd join it.
"Sure, once we're done here we'll head to-," Naruto trailed off not knowing where it was.
"MagnoliaTown, we can take you back with us if you want."
"They are from the newspaper from Yamnesh town about the encounter with the 'Ghost Brothers' Rang and Fong," the scarlet haired girl interrupted.
Makarov stared at them before laughing.
"They are the two, that's just like you to notice stuff like this Erza," Makarov laughed.
"Yes, I'M FAMOUS," Naruto cheered.
Erza, Sasuke, and the white haired girl just stared at him as if he were an idiot.
"What?"
"You remind of us of a person in our guild," the white haired girl said.
"And you still act like you did when you were freakin' twelve," Sasuke said.
Naruto growled at Sasuke for embarrassing him.
"He reminds me of Natsu," the white haired girl said.
"He's almost like an older version of him" Erza grumbled.
"I'll take that as a complement," Naruto said.
"It can be taken as one," Makarov responded.
"Anyways, the two girls next to me are Erza Scarlet, the red head, and Mirajane Straus, the white haired one," Makarvo said.
"Nice to meet you," Sasuke said.
Naruto just looked at them and smiled a big grin.
As they walked around Makarov noticed their clothes.
"You two are severely under clothed, you should get knew ones."
"We were actually heading out to do that," Sasuke said.
Mirajane and Erza actually had not noticed this until now before looking at the boys again. It was shocking to them they hadn't seen it. To have such giant holes and cuts in their clothes it made it obvious. It also made them want to know what happened on that Yamnesh town tousle.
They also could not deny that their build was attractive, not a shred of fat on them, all muscle, it was weird to say the least. Most boys had some sort of fat on their bodies by now.
As Naruto and Sasuke went to go get their clothes Makarov looked at Erza and Mirajane.
"I can tell you one thing, Erza, Mira. Those boys are strong, very strong," Makarov said.
Mira and Erza nodded before waiting for the two boys. When they came back they were dressed in brand new clothes.
Naruto wore a short sleeved, black V-neck that reached slightly lower than his waist. He wore orange wristbands and had on blue baggy pants that were held up by a black belt. He wore black shoes.
Sasuke wore a long sleeved, gray shirt with red flames decorating the colors around the wrists. He wore blue baggy pants that were also held up by a black belt. He wore black shoes with white trimming.
"Much better, now what are you gonna do for today" Makarov asked.
"Well it's too late to train, and we do have that money that the Magic Council gave us, I guess were getting Naruto those damn bracers, if they're sold here," Sasuke said.
Naruto laughed at his friends despair. Although Sasuke would admit that Kurama was a good ally to have he still didn't like him, it was rather ironic, as he knew if Sasuke was the Jinchuriki of Kurama he bet they would be friends…if they could get over the Sharingan that is. Or, Kurama would have possessed him when he was still evil; it was all up to Kurama really.
Erza and Mirajane just looked at the boys in a confused manner as they sped out of the building and towards the nearest shop. They were…different boys, however they seemed to have the majority of the brain intact. Unlike the boys at the rest of their guild, however it was then they realized something.
"Master-"

Naruto had to marvel at the exterior design of the building they just left. It was of an imposing palace, composed of both pure white stone and light blue bricks, with large elongated windows with arched tops being placed over its walls, some complete with glass, others hollow. The front was a large façade, dominated in the center by the entrance, consisting of a double door that was topped by a pyramid-shaped roof, which was adorned by a bas-relief portraying a naked male figure taking the hand of a naked female figure, with a large shell being placed behind them. The roof was held up by two massive, rectangular structures, plus a smaller pair of columns directly at the sides of the door.
It was obvious to say it was amazing, and he didn't even get to see all of it. He was still marveling at it before Sasuke dragged him away eager to get this over with.
"There, it should be sold in Armor and Weapon House," Sasuke said glaring at Naruto.
He nodded before walking inside the door, followed by Sasuke. It was amazing. Armor and weapons lined the walls and ceiling, there were shelves dedicated to specific types of armor and weapons. The floor was the only clear place in the store; even the counter had smaller weapons.
Naruto quickly found the bracers section, scanning around for the bracers. He found them. They were at the end of the section next to the kunai section. He rushed over to them before something shined in the corner of his eye. He looked towards it and gasped. It couldn't have been what he thought it was, but there it was, staring him right in the face.
A tri pronged kunai.
It looked almost exactly like his father's kunai. He walked over to them and held them in his hands. Like his fathers they were thicker than normal with the three blades instead of the regular one.
He didn't want to lose the chance to get this.
'Kurama-' he began, but the fox cut him off.
"Its okay brat, it doesn't matter all that much. Besides, that's almost exactly like your father's kunai. I know you want it, just buy it," the fox rumbled.
'Thank you,' Naruto responded.
Kurama just grunted at the boy. He was NOT going to get soft, even if he did care for the brat.
As Naruto walked up the counter the shop keeper took notice of him.
"Ah, I see you have two of the Ray Kunai," the man said. "You know, those are my own personal creation that will be 600 jewels."
Naruto paid the man before smiling. "Then you must have good taste. However, I think you should name them something different than the Ray Kunai."
The shop keeper looked at him quizzically. "Such as?"
"The Thunder God Kunai," Naruto responded before walking out the shop with Sasuke in toe.
As they walked back up to the Council building Naruto couldn't help but be excited. He was basically holding onto two parts of his father's legacy now.

It was the next day when Naruto and Sasuke had to finish their citizen registration, meaning they could leave now. They had already thrown away their old clothes, sad that they could never be worn again, but they were going to get to small anyway, while these clothes were slightly big, allowing for growth to occur.
As they walked out of the building they saw Makarov, Erza, and Mira all walking over to the train station. They followed them, after deciding to join the guild last night they old them they would meet them at the train station. As they ran up the three stopped and looked behind them, smiling at the two.
"Decided to join," Makarov asked.
"Yeah," Sasuke said.
Makarov nodded before paying for their tickets and walking onto the train. He was quickly followed by Erza and Mira.
Naruto and Sasuke took a deep breath. The new chapter in their lives started now.
With that, they stepped onto the train.
Hey guys it's Kuma Akuma. This chapter was more of a relaxation chapter, filler for the meeting Fairy Tail and the next arc. I think i did a pretty good job, but tell me what you think. We had classic Naruto in this chapter, aka not smart Naruto. We also had sort of classic Sasuke. Naruto also bought a tri pronged kunai, the Ray Kunai (I couldn't think of a better name.) Today just isn't my creative day, I was in a slump all day so that's probably why. However, I took away the chapter yesterday so I knew I had to do it today. Also, stop sending arcs and OCs. Not because they are bad, but mainly because it's against the rules and guidelines of no interactive story. While I had no idea it was there it is now so that sucks. I won't quit the story however. If you have any explanation on that please PM me. So, next chapter is the Naruto and Sasuke meet Fairy Tail. I'd best be outta my slump before that, I have to make that action packed aka, fights will be happening, that's all you need to know.
