Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Final Fantasy
Hi guys thanks for tuning in to cheack out my new story, I noticed this story has gathered alot of faviorites in such a short time and I'm so happy about that I just hope I can keep the popularity of this story going. But enough of all that lets get started with the story.
Naruto floating face down in some water. He wakes up, looking around
"Rikku!"
He gets hit in the head by a blitzball. He looks at the shore, where several people are gathered
"Hey! You okay?"
"Heeey!"
Naruto goes under water, hits the ball into the air with his head, and once in the air, does a double-legged bicycle kick. The person on the beach who yelled "Hey! You okay?" narrowly avoids the ball hitting his head.
"Whoa-ho!"
He looks at Naruto, smirks, and smiles. Naruto approaches the group on the beach. Two people turn away from the one who spoke before and leave. The person turns around and his mouth opens in surprise. Him and his posse surround Naruto
"Hey What's up...guys"
"You wanna try that move one more time?"
A blitzball is thrown into the air. The group steps back. The blitzball bounces off of Naruto forehead; he then proceeds to bicycle kick it at an incredible speed into the water. Everyone gasps.
"You're no amateur. Who you play for?"
"Um...I don't play for a team I'm from Konoha, The Hidden Leaf Village!"
Everyone gasps and talks amongst each other
"What team you say again?"
"Great their all looking me like I'm carzy...I got to think of an excuse"
"Um...forget I said that..."
"I think I got to close to Sin. So I don't know where or what this place it"
"Or where I came from"
"Sin's toxin got to you."
"But, you're still alive."
"Praise be to Yevon!"
Everyone does this gesture; right forearm over left forearm, fingers spread out, hands curved in the shape of a circle, and bow.
Wakka then turns to the Auroachs
"All right, back to practice!"
And turns around back to Naruto
"I'm Wakka, coach and captain of the Besaid Aurochs, brudda."
Naruto stomach growls
"What? You hungry?"
"Okay! Back to the village. I'll get you somethin'!"
"I felt like I could trust this Wakka, so I just had to ask."
"Have you ever heared of a Hidden Leaf Village"
Wakka turns around to face him
"No sorry never heared of it"
Naruto began to sigh
"But if a place like that did exist it would of been destoryed a long time ago by Sin"
"Really how!"
"Long time ago, there were a whole lot of cities in Spira. Big cities with machina-machines-to run 'em."
"People played all day and let the machina do the work."
"And then, well, take a look."
"Sin came, and destroyed the machina cities."
"And probably that Hidden Leaf place along with 'em."
"Yeah, that was about a thousand years ago, just like you said."
"If you ask me, Sin's our punishment for letting things get out of hand."
"What gets me, though..."
"is we gotta suffer, 'cause of what some goofballs did way back when!"
"'Course, we must always repent for our sins! That's important!"
"It's just that, it's hard to keep at it sometimes, you know?"
It was just as Rikku said."
"Wakka and Rikku couldn't both be lying. Why would they?"
Wakka laughs
"But you from the some Hidden Leaf Village-that was a good one!"
"Hey, I'm not saying that place never existed, ya?"
"But you gotta figure a place like that living in luxury like that'd be pretty soft, eh?"
"It was great that Wakka was trying to cheer me up..."
"Stand there thinking about all that happened"
"Sin attacking my Village"
"The strange man that was with it"
"And some how getting sucked in by Sin and ending up in this strange world"
"Maybe if I could find Sin again I might be able to go home..."
"Until then I'll just try not to think about it"
"Not thing about go home right away wasn't going to be that hard...right?"
Naruto runs onto the forest
Wakka stands in front of the crossroads
"Hey! It's this way!"
Wakka runs; Naruto follows him. He eventually approaches Wakka, as the two of them stand over a ledge. Below the ledge is a large body of water. Naruto looks down at the water, while Wakka stealthily moves behind him
"Huh?"
Wakka pushes him with one arm. Naruto falls and goes "Waaah", landing with a splash. Wakka, in form, dives into the water after Naruto
"What's the big idea?"
The two of them make their way through the water. At one part, Wakka goes up behind Naruto and gets him in a headlock
"Lemme go!" Naruto says
"Got a favor to ask ya."
"W-What is it?"
"I need you to join the Aurochs"
"You want me on your team?"
Wakka lets go; Naruto sinks, then surfaces again
"A major blitz tournament's coming up. All the teams in Spira'll be there!"
"It's so huge, I'm sure someone there will recognize you!"
"Then you can go back to your old team, right?"
"It'll be fun! What do you say, huh? Come on, come on!"
Naruto solemnly floats, looking at the guy
"Can these guys be that desperate?"
"Sure thing, I guess"
He swims away
"Dude! Our team is gonna rock, eh?"
Wakka swims after him
"At the time everything seemed to be happening so fast it was hard for me to keep up"
"Like I was trapped in a strange dream and waiting desperatly to wake up"
Naruto , now on solid ground, walks to the edge of a cliff with Wakka. Below the cliff, in the distance, is a village
"This is where I was born. I started blitz when I was five."
"I joined the Aurochs at thirteen...ten years ago."
"Ten years...and we never won a game."
"Well, after last year's tournament, I quit. Time seemed right."
Wakka walks off . Naruto stomach growls, and he follows him
"So, after quitting, I got this new job, ya?"
"But every time my mind wandered, I thought about the game."
"Yeah, ten years without a single win'll do that." Naruto says
"My first match last year was my big chance."
"Really ten years without a win?
"Even though I still have no idea what Blitzball is, no team should be that bad...right?"
"But something else was on my mind. I couldn't focus."
"Nice excuse."
"Hey, hey!"
"So win the you out with a bang in the next tournament, right?."
Wakka nods
"That's good an all but I've never played Blitzball before"
"You'll do fine I'll teach ya"
"So, what's our goal then?"
"I don't care how we do. Long as we play our best."
"If we give it our all, I can walk away happy."
"Are you serous! That's our goal!"
Wakka nods
"You got to be kidding me"
"Listen if your going to drag me into this game, we might as well win right!"
"Victory? You serious?"
Naruto nods. They make their way to Wakka's town, along the way, the encounter two people; the two who walked away from Wakka when Naruto and Wakka first met.
"Ah, the one from the sea!"
"Be on guard. There're fiends on the road today!"
"After surviving your run-in with Sin, 'twould be a shame if something happened now."
"Who were they?"
"Luzzu and Gatta-Crusaders."
"Crews of what?"
"What, you forgot that too?"
Naruto hangs his head
"Hey, sorry. Don't worry about it, I'll help you out."
Naruto lifts his head
"Cool."
"In return, come tournament time, I'll make sure we take the cup!"
"Cool."Wakka says
"About the Crusaders, you can ask them yourself. They've got a lodge in the village."
They reach the village, finally
"Besaid Village."
"They got any food there in there?" Naruto asked
"We'll get you something over there later. Take a look around first."
"Let's see..."
"The Crusaders lodge is over yonder. Luzzu and Gatta are usually there."
Wakka points to the Crusaders lodge, which is a large blue tent,
"Oh, right."
"Over here!"
"Huh? What's up?" Naruto asked
"You do remember the prayer, right?"
"Huh..What's a prayer?"
"Man, that's like the basics of the basics. Alright, I'll show you."
He does the prayer; the hand gestrues that him and his Aurochs did to Naruto on the beach when they first met
"Go ahead, you try."
Naruto does it
"Hey, not bad."
"Okay, now go present yourself to the temple summoner."
Naruto goes to the temple. Several people are inside, praying to statues. Naruto looks around
"It was then, standing in that place."
"I began to realize how different this world was from my own."
Naruto approach a statue of a man, clad in a robe and holding a staff. A man approaches Naruto
"Seventeen years have passed since Lord Braska became high summoner."
"And finally we received a statue for our temple."
"What's a high summoner?"
Everyone gasps
"I...I got too close to Sin's, uh, toxin."
"It was funny hearing myself make the same excuse over and over. Funny, and a little sad."
"The summoners are practitioners of a sacred art, sworn to protect the people of Yevon."
"Only a chosen few become summoners, who call forth entities of great power: the aeons."
"The aeons hear our prayers and come down to us. They are the blessing of Yevon."
"I think what meant was that we were supposed to respect some great men"
"Kinda like the hokage mountain in my village, I think"
Naruto leaves the temple and returns to Wakka's hut
"Sorry, man. No time for lunch yet."
"Take a nap! You look bushed."
Naruto sleeps. The man from the temple who spoke to Naruto enters the hut. Wakka stands up.
"You could at least go see how they are doing."
"We can't interfere. It's a rule."
"But, it's been nearly..."
They both walk out of the hut. Naruto has a dream
Naruto wakes up in the middle of a sewer.
He looks around and figures that the fox summoned him so Naruto walk to where the cage that held the fox was located
The moment he reaches the cage he calls out to the Fox but recieve no answer
"It's no use Naruto"
Naruto turns around to face that same man that was cloaked in red with a broken arm and was wearing sunglasses
"You!"
"There so much for you to learn but you know so little" He says
"Who the hell are, why did you send me here, and what the hell do you want from me!"
"These answers will become clear to you in time Naruto"
Naruto turns around again and can't believe what he's sees
"D-Dad!"
Naruto's father walks up to and put his palm on his forehead
"Listen Naruto you must find Auron, when you do he will explain everything to you"
"B-But!"
Before Naruto could say anything else, everything in that sewer was engulfed in a strange light and Naruto was once again consume by it
Naruto wakes up in the hut, all alone
"Wakka?"
Naruto returns to the temple. Wakka and the man from earlier are there
"Is something wrong?"
"The summoner hasn't returned from the trial."
"Eh?"
"Well, apprentice summoner, really..."
"Ah?"
"There's a room in there called the Cloister of Trials. Beyond is where the apprentice summoner prays."
"If the prayer is heard, the apprentice becomes a fully-fledged summoner, remember?"
"So someone is in there somewhere and they haven't come back out. Right, I got it."
"A day's already gone by."
"Is it dangerous in there Wakka?"
"Sometimes, yes."
"Why don't you go in and help the Summoner or Apprentce Summoners then?"
"There's already guardians in there. Besides, it's forbidden."
"Somebody in trouble and their just standing there! What's wrong with these people!"
Naruto runs partway up the staircase that leads to the door to the Cloister of Trials
"Hey, why are you guys just standing there! What happens when the Summoner dies?"
"The precepts must be obeyed!"
"Yeah right!"
Naruto runs up the rest of the stairs and enters the door. The people in the temple gasp
Maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all.
Naruto makes his way through the Cloister of Trials. Wakka eventually meets up with him
"Hey!"
"Oh...hey Wakka."
"What's gotten into you?"
"Um..sorry I thought the Summoner was in trouble and I came to help"
"Hey, it's okay."
"Only summoners, apprentice summoners, and their guardians can enter here."
"It's a tradition. Very important."
"So what about you?"
"Me? I'm a guardian."
"A guardian?"
Standing on a stone platform elevator of sorts, they begin moving downwards
"Summoners go on a pilgrimage to pray at every temple in Spira."
"Guardians protect them."
"The guardians in there now..."
"One of them's got a short fuse, and who knows what the other's thinking."
"Well, now that we've come this far..."
"might as well go all the way!"
They walk into a room. There are two other people there: one, a woman dressed in black; the other, a tall blue beast. The woman is the only one of the two who speaks
"What are you doing here? Didn't think we'd be able to handle it?"
"No, it's uh...it's just..."
Turns to Naruto
"See, I told you she gets mad easy."
"Is the summoner all right?"
"Who are you?"
Naruto, Wakka, the girl and the beast stand in front of a large doorway. It opens up, and the apprentice summoner wanders out she begins to tumble. Everyone gasps. The beast races forward and catches her, while growling. The apprentice summoner fixes her hair and stands up straight
I've done it. I have become a summoner!"
Naruto stood there shocked, he couldn't imagine that those so called summoners would be so young or beautiful
Back in the first room of the temple, several people surround the summoner and her guardians
And here I was thinking summoners were all old geezers."
"I'd never though they be that young or cute"
Naruto runs out of the temple
"Hey, over here!"
Wakka takes hold of Naruto and drags him towards a circle that the summoner and her female guardian are standing in. They join a group of people standing around the circle. The guardian steps out of the circle and joins them
"What? Ow!"
"Wait till you see this!"
"I can't see anything!"
"Ready!" Wakka asked
"Okay." Yuna responds
The summoner performs a series of motions and gestures. The aeon is summoned; a large multi-coloured bird-like creature. It descends; the summoner strokes its neck. Everyone is pleased. Wakka and the female guardian enter the circle to congratulate the summoner
"I had never seen anything like it in my life."
"Sure, it was a little scary, but still..."
"I could feel a strange kind of gentleness coming from it."
Later on at night time. Naruto and Wakka are standing in front of the rest of the Besaid Aurochs
"Let me introduce you to the team."
"Naruto here wants into the tournament so bad, I let him on the team."
"His memory's a little fuzzy, so don't mind him if he says anything odd!"
"Come on, say hi."
Naruto steps forward, and scratches the back of his head. All is silent for a few moments
"Uh... Hi, guys."
"Right...so what should I say?"
"So, what's our goal?"
"To do our best!"
"Nope, we got a new goal now!"
"Our new goal...is victory!"
"To win every match, defeat every opposing team!"
"To bring the Crystal Cup back to our island!"
"That's all we need to do to win! Easy, ya?"
"Victory..."
The Aurochs repeatedly say, and eventually yell, "Victory" over and over. Naruto looks over at the summoner, who's sitting down talking with a few of the townspeople, Naruto didn't realized that he was staring but he couldn't really help it this girl was beautiful.
Aurochs
"Victory! Victory! Victory!"
Naruto walks over to the summoner. Three people; an old man, and old woman, and a kid, each have pleasant things to say to Naruto in succession
"You heathen!"
"Stay away from the summoner!"
"You're a bad man!"
The summoner stands up
"Lady Yuna! Be careful!"
"But it was really my fault to begin with."
She walks over to Naruto
"I'm Yuna."
"Oh...and...um...I'm...uh."
Naruto began to panic here he was in front of a beautiful girl right in front of him and he can't even figure out his own name
"Oh no she's gonna think I'm an idiot, why do you have to be so stupid Naru...Oh Wait!"
"Naruto that's my name, Naruto Uzumaki nice to meet you"
Yuna begins to giggle
"Thank you so much for your help earlier."
"I'm sorry about that."
"I...um think I overreacted"
"Oh, no. I was...overconfident."
"Um, I saw that aeon thing. That's amazing!"
"Really?" Yuna says
"Do you think I can become high summoner?"
Naruto nods. A kid approaches
"Lady Yuna, come play with me some more!"
Yuna nods, and turns back to face Naruto
"So, tomorrow, then."
"Um Tomorrow?"
"We're going on the same boat, aren't we?"
"Oh, really?"
"We can talk more."
"Yeah"
"You can tell me all about Konoha!"
Yuna walks away. Wakka walks beside Naruto and gives him a light friendly elbow in the arm
"She's cute, ya?"
"Yeah!"
"Don't get no ideas."
"Yeah right no promises there"
"But you never know she might come on to me"
"That's not going to happen."
"If you get tired, let me know. I had a bed made for you."
Naruto approaches Wakka
"Hm? Ready for bed?"
"Yeah."
"Good. Sleep tight."
Later that night Naruto has a nightmare.
Naruto is a six year old boy desperatly running towards his apartment from an angry mob
"Get back here demon!"
"Leave me alone!"
Naruto continues to run away from them until he finally reached his apartment
Once he gets the he quickly runs in and locks the door and barricade it so the mob couldn't get inside
Naruto then runs under his bed and prys that the people would just stop and leave him alone
The mob bang on the door repeated trying to break it down
"Open this door demon! Come out here and get what's coming to you"
"Leave me alone I didn't do anything!"
"Open this door now demon!'
Naruto began to curle into a ball and cry silently hope that he could some how escape this place
"I...hate...them! I hate them! I hate them!"
Naruto wakes up
"I HATE THEM!"
"He's dead, okay? Dead!"
Naruto walks to the doorway and looks outside. The female guardian is speaking to Wakka
"He does look a lot like Chappu. I was surprised, too, the first time I saw him."
"But no matter what he looks like, he isn't Chappu.
"You shouldn't have brought him here in the first place!"
"Yeah, but...he needed our help!"
"Excuses again?"
"Yeah, but..."
"That's it. No more. Enough, Wakka!"
Lulu walks away. Wakka signs and returns to the tent Naruto is in
"Scary!"
"So, who's Chappu?"
"My little brother, Chappu. He looked like you."
"He's dead?"
"He was with the Crusaders when they fought Sin last year. He didn't make it."
"I first heard on the day of the tournament."
"Oh, so that's why."
"I became a guardian to fight Sin, ya?"
"So this was about revenge, then?"
"That was the idea."
"I'm more worried about a stupid game now than avenging my brother."
"Well, after the next tournament, I'll be a guardian full-time."
"I know it kinda looks like I'm using you, but I'm not."
"Don't worry. I really owe you alot"
Wakka then looks up to Naruto
"You really helped me out, you know?"
"What I mean is... thanks, Wakka."
Naruto extends his hand for a handshake. Wakka lifts his hand, but pulls away
"Stop, you're embarrassing me!"
Later on that morning. Naruto exits the hut. Lulu and Wakka are talking; Naruto runs up to them]
"Hey! Sleepyhead!"
"Something I want to give you."
Wakka hands Naruto a sword that is crystal blue
"Whoa! You're giving this...to me?"
"I've never used a weapon like that before but I guess I can get alot of practice on the way to this Luca place"
"Yeah, use it well!"
"That's the sword you gave Chappu."
"Well, he never used it."
"Where's Yuna?"
"We're taking the same boat as Yuna, right? Why do we gotta wait here?"
"Yuna came to this village ten years ago, when the last Calm started."
"The Calm?"
"Since then, she's been like a little sister to me and Lulu."
"But she had the talent... She became an apprentice."
"Now, today, she leaves as a summoner."
"This is our journey... We should leave together."
Yuna exits the temple with several suitcases
"You really don't need all that luggage."
"They're not really my things. They're gifts for the temples we're to visit."
"This isn't a vacation, Yuna."
"I guess...I guess you're right."
She leaves the luggage behind and approaches the trio
"Okay! Off we go!"
Yuna takes one last look at the temple, and walks off. The four of them leave Besaid and make their way to the harbour
They get to the cliff overlooking Besaid that Wakka and Naruto were at earlier. Lulu and Yuna look at the village
"Take your time."
"Hey, guys let's get going"
"We're gonna wait."
Naruto goes "Huh?". Yuna walks in between them
"Are you ready?"
Yuna nods and walks off. Lulu follows, nods to Wakka, and follows Yuna
"What's going on?" Naruto asked
Naruto approaches Wakka, who's praying to a stone statue
"It's an ancient custom. People leaving the island pray here for a safe trip."
"Chappu didn't pray that day. Said he'd miss his boat."
Wakka stops praying and stands up after a few moments
"That should do it!"
The group continues along the path of Besaid 's beastly guardian jumps down from several structures, landing in front of Naruto . He smashes his two fists into the ground and lets loose an incredible growl.
This blue beast then grabs a spears and launches an attack at Naruto
Naruto quickly draws his sword and block the beast attack
The beast then jump back and prepares to strike again
Naruto get's ready to summon his Shadow clones and take the beast be surprise
The beast launches forward agian to strike
"That's enough!"
The beast stops and turns to leave suddenly
Wakka walks towards Naruto. The beast walks away
"What's with that guy?"
"Kimahri Ronso, of the Ronso tribe. He's learned the fiends' way of fighting."
"Unbelieveable, that guys just attacks me and walks away like it was nothing!"
"That's not what I meant!"
"He's another of Yuna's guardians."
Naruto goes "huh?". Yuna giggles and walks up to Naruto
"Sometimes we don't understand him either. Kimahri doesn't talk much anyway."
Wakka says an exclamatory "hmm"
"But he has protected me since I was a child!"
Naruto says an inquisitive "hmm"
They make their way to the beach; more specifically, the harbour, to where the boat is. As the boat leaves, Yuna watches the dock, where people are gathered, sad to see that she's going. They wave and cry; she does a couple of prayer gestures
"Goodbye."
The boat leaves, and heads for Kilika Port
That's all folks I hope that you guys enjoyed that and I hope to update soon and I am sorry to not put in Titus in this story but if I did and Naruto was still the main character I really couldn't find a huge purpose for him and he would just be under used but there are alot of Naruto/FFX cross stories that have Titus in them so I suggest that you guys check that out anyways I hope to updates so and please let me know what ya'll think.
