Summary: Naruto used to think Kakashi-sensei's excuses were just terrible attempts at getting him worked up. Yet, here he was, in a completely different place from where he fell asleep, having a small man in awesome orange and blue pajamas, Naruto might add, asking him how he got here and why he was in their guilds infirmary. "Uh…," Naruto smiled, "I got lost on the road of life."
A/N: Okay, this is a rewrite and hopefully a lot better than my previous attempt at a crossover with Fairy Tail. It seems like people who write in this type of crossover always go with regular Fairy Tail Cannon—not happening here! I'm trying something new. So if you are looking for cannon fairy tail, there are a thousand stories of it. Hopefully, people will like it.
Act 1: Welcome To Fairy Tail
Chapter One: Got Lost on Road of Life
Naruto awoke from his bed…, No that wasn't quite right. This bed felt too comfortable to be his own bed. That piece of shit sucked! Naruto opened his eyes only to find a short man in front of him. He stood at the end of the bed with his eyebrow raised at him. The guy was an extremely short, elderly man. He has black eyes and has a thick white mustache. He has on a white shirt with a black symbol of some sort in the middle, under an orange hoodie with matching orange shorts, and an orange and blue striped jester hat.
"Hey, you. You're finally awake." The elderly man stated.
Naruto took this time to blink the sleep from his eyes. He looked around the room and noticed that there was nothing he recognized at all. Naruto gazed back at the old man. "Hey, old man? Where am I?"
A tick mark formed on the man's head at him being called old, but he lost it a moment later when he answered Naruto's question, "You are in my guild, Fairy Tail. I should be asking you the questions, why are you here, sleeping in my infirmary, no less?"
Naruto sat up in the bed and blinked at what was being implied. It was at this time a thought that occurred to him. It was almost funny at what popped into his head. It had to be his trickster side that had decided to kick in at this moment. He knew it would get under the old man's skin much as it did to him. Naruto used to think Kakashi-sensei's excuses were just terrible attempts at getting him worked up. Yet, here he was, in a completely different place from where he fell asleep, having a small man in awesome orange and blue pajamas, Naruto might add, asking him how he got here and why he was in their guilds infirmary.
"Uh…," Naruto smiled, "I got lost on the road of life." The blond scratched the back of his head sheepishly. The short man had not expected the answer and fell off the bed with a face fault.
The old man hopped back onto the bed nimbly and pointed at Naruto, "As if I would believe such a horrible excuse!"
Naruto stopped a snicker that was building up, 'I can see why Kakashi-sensei likes using these trashy excuses if that will be the reaction people will make.' Naruto paused, before realizing, to his horror, as he slapped his hands to his whiskered cheeks, 'Oh no! I'm becoming Kakashi-sensei! Does this mean I'm going to grow a mask on my face next?!' Naruto shook his head at this line of thought. He removed them fast from his mind as fast as he purged thoughts of ghosts- What was he thinking about just now?
"Oi, stop ignoring me!" The old man piped up.
Naruto brought his hand to his chin in thought; his eyes squinted too. The older man leaned forward; he expected a better answer. This what he got: "I don't know." The elderly man fell off the bed again from Naruto's unhelpful answer.
"What do you mean you don't know!?" The old man yelled, but this time didn't jump back on the bed.
Naruto shrugged from his spot on the bed, "Sorry old man, I don't really know how I got here. I went to sleep in my bed at home, next thing I know, I'm here!"
"You mean you have no idea how you got to Magnolia Town?" The old asked in confusion.
"Magnolia Town!" Naruto exclaimed as he jumped out of the bed's covers, "Magnolia Town," Naruto said again, worried and he became befuddled when he realized he had no idea where that was. "Magnolia Town? Where in the Kami is that?"
The old adult answered the question simply, "Fiore."
"Where-iore?" Naruto turned his ear toward the man. He didn't think he heard him right.
The elderly man raised an eyebrow at the gesture Naruto made, "Fiore."
"Never heard of it."
"How have you never heard of Fiore?" The old man inquired.
"I just haven't," Naruto told the man like the old man should have known that. "How far is that from Konohagakure no Sato?"
"What?"
"You know, the strongest ninja village out of the big five," Naruto explained, "Man, I hope I'm not too far. I have to meet ero-sennin to go on my training trip…, wait a minute, what time is it?!" Naruto wonder looking around for a clock.
"It's ten in the morning!"
"Ten in the morning! I'm late! Like Really, really, really late!" Naruto hopped out of bed. He noticed that his bare feet hit the cold hardwood floor, but he pressed on. He moved toward the door, but the old man stopped him as he grabbed the back of his shirt. "What's the big deal, gramps!"
"Keep your shirt on, brat. You have more significant problems than being late." The elderly man snapped at Naruto. That caused Naruto to stop and listen. The old man slowly nodded his head, "I see. You're not from around here. I believe you are like one of my other children."
Naruto frowned, "What do you mean?"
"You are far from home," the old man started, "Sit down on the edge of the bed, please." Naruto did what he was asked of and sat at the edge of the bed. "You aren't just far from home, my boy; you are in a completely new world or even dimension. I believe it to be the latter. However, it isn't a parallel dimension."
Naruto squinted at the man and rubbed his chin, "I don't get it."
"It's not meant for you to get!" The man barked out, "Look, I don't know how you got here, but you might as well get used to it for now."
"What?!" Naruto shouted as he jumped to his feet. "I can't just stay here! I still have to go on my training trip so I can bring back Sasuke!"
"Listen here, kid, you don't have that option right now. We still have to find out how you got here. Right now, I have no clue if it is even possible that you can go back to this Konoha."
Naruto's mouth dropped, "What ya mean?"
"It's as I said. You can't walk there, you can't fly there, you can't get a boat there, and you can't even drive there. You are stuck here in Earth Land for now."
"But I have to get back! There has to be a way to get back! I still have to become Hokage, I still need to get Sakura to go out with me, I still need to bring Sasuke back, and I still have to get stronger!" Naruto told the old man the importance of him getting back.
"I understand your plight-"
"My what?" Naruto asked. He gave the old man an odd look.
The old man sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, "I understand your problem. I know some people from different dimensions. We can talk to them and see what they have to say about you."
Naruto grins at the old man, "Thanks, gramps!"
"Don't get your hopes up, though. You might be permanently stuck here." The old man warned. Naruto's happy attitude dissipated at that. "Now, introductions. I grow tired of hearing you call me gramps and old man. My name is Makarov Dreyar, the third guild master of Fairy Tail."
Naruto smiled at the warm introduction, "I'm Uzumaki Naruto! Shinobi of Konoha!"
Makarov nodded, "Welcome Uzumaki to-" The man saw the look Naruto gave him. "What's wrong?"
"Use my first name."
"I wasn't?"
"No, Naruto is my first name." The blond informed Makarov.
"Then why did introduce it last?" Makarov shot back.
Naruto became bewildered. "What'd ya mean?"
"What do you mean, what do I mean?!" Makarov growled. "Forget it, stay here for a bit. I need to get you some clothes."
"What's wrong with my-" Naruto looked down at himself and noticed that he had on a black shirt and his frog boxers. "Oh, damn, so I just show up here wearing what I was when I fell asleep?"
"What, does that not make sense to you?"
Naruto shrugged, "Nothing is making sense really."
Makarov shook his head lightly, "Well, at least we know that whatever happened, you were asleep for it. What is your shoe size and pants size?"
"You got any sandals?" Naruto asked. He saw the shoes that the old man had on. He did not want to wear those. 'What are those?'
"I'm sure I can find you pair if need them." The man said in a deadpan tone. He had noticed the look Naruto had sent him.
"Got any orange-colored clothes?"
"This is becoming oddly specific all of a sudden." A tick mark was starting to form on his forehead.
Naruto scratched the back of his head, "I just love the color orange."
The man nodded, he could respect that. "It is indeed a fine color for a bright and loud personality. I'll see what I can do, so what are your sizes?"
"Awesome, thanks-" Naruto caught the insult, "Oi, I'm not that loud!" Naruto yelled at him.
"Sure you're not." Makarov crossed his arms under his chest.
"I'll have you know-"
A loud feminine voice interrupted Naruto before he could explain himself. "ERZA!"
There was a loud crash that shook the room! Makarov sighed tiredly, "Mirajane back."
Naruto sent the man a perplexed look, "Why do say that like it's a bad omen?"
"Because that's not too far from the truth." The man whined, "Her nickname is 'The Demon.' That should sum it up for you."
Naruto frowned in thought, "She can't be that bad." The was another explosive bang that rocked the whole building. Naruto actually questioned himself in whether he was right on that or not.
"MY CAKE!"
Makarov started to cry. The old man was crying! He kept on muttering something about Erza and her strawberry cake. "Hey, it's okay. You don't-"
"There goes the guild! All that money I wanted to save! Gone!"
Now it was time for Naruto to face fault. That was when the guild started shaking even more violently than before. 'Where the fuck am I ero-sennin?'
A/N: Thank you for reading this work. I think I will cut this chapter a little short, but whatever, this is just like a hook chapter. I wanted to keep it short, not hella long, so yeah. So this story will not have a fast time skip. Naruto is 13 years old right now. He was supposed to go on his training trip with Jiraiya, but something has happened to make him end up in Fairy tail. Set in the past, X781, just after Mirajane got promoted to S-Rank. I do not plan on having a time skip soon.
