Chapter 3
The Tower of heaven and the awakening of the demon-dragon slayer
Naruto steadily walked down the road onto the mountain ridge where his dragon was waiting for him. On the way down the rickety road, he saw a small town burning. The flames were golden yellow mixed with deep ruby red. The flames were growing as the fire raged on.
"What's going on over there?" he asked himself as he walked toward the town. Naruto ran to the town to see if he could help. Secretly, he wanted to be a hero amongst the girls. He stopped to catch his breath and day dreamed as he thought of all the town girls in very short skirts and skimpy tops worshiping him and acknowledging him the hero of the day. The strong smell of burning soon brought him to his senses and he mopped the dribble from his mouth and continued on his way.
After a short walk, he saw a boy about the same age that he was. He had brown hair and his t-shirt was torn, tattered and black with dirt. His pants were ripped along the back and at the knees, the original colour was meant to be blue but now they were a brown-black colour. Through the torn bits, Naruto could see cuts and bruises that the boy had suffered. He looked like he had been beaten by a group of savages.
"Are you ok? What happened?" Naruto asked the boy with deep concern.
"No, some men came into our town and attacked everyone. They have taken some of my friends" the boy cried as he fell to his knees with exhaustion.
"Stay here, I will try to save your friends" Naruto replied to the boy. Naruto started to run towards the town, thinking to himself he really had to have a plan however, nothing came to mind. He soon found himself at the gates of the town, suddenly feeling a little scared, but fired up to save someone so he could be a hero. The town, due to the fact that it was burning, was so hot. Naruto could hardly see through the smoke.
Naruto was filled with sadness as he witnessed bodies all over the place. He looked at the side of the road; he spotted a man in a black coat and wearing a mask. He was dragging a girl who had jet black hair. She was wearing what appeared to be slashed blue dress. The man then tossed the girl into a cage with some other people around her age.
In the distance there were two more men wearing identical coats to the first evil man collecting up more survivors and putting them in cages.
{Elsewhere outside the town}
"Where have you got to you little brat?" said one of the men in the black coat. He walked towards the boy who was hiding behind a rock nearby. He had got away from them in all the confusion. The boy tried not to cry, but it was too late. The man spotted him and stomped towards him in a menacing manner.
"No, no, stay away please, STAY AWAY FROM ME!" the boy yelled with tears streaming down his face. The man moved his hand in front of him to grab the boy. From out of nowhere the boy got angry out of rage he summoned some sort of magic. Suddenly his temper caused a tree root to come out from the ground, bound by a spell. When the spell broke into its full force, the root tied itself around the man's neck. The more the man struggled, the tighter the root squeezed the man's neck until it was snapped.
"That's some rare magic you got there my friend" said a boy who came out the woods. He had black hair with red highlight like blood running through his hair. He was clothed in a short sleeved shirt and army shorts.
"Who are you?" asked the boy, a bit scared of his untold magic.
"My name is Hikaru Stormrider; I am a lightning god slayer. I was just wondering if you will like to join my guild? I can give you and your friends a new home, where no one can hurt you. Now tell me your name and if you would like to join" replied Hikaru as he give one of his hand out to help the boy.
"Yes I would like that and my name is Billy Wood" the boy now name Billy said as he take Hikaru hand as they hiked toward the town.
{Back with Naruto}
Naruto was dragging one of the men in the coat towards the docks. After finding out where they were going to take the children, he sent the man as a warning to the other men.
"Please, stop. If they find out I took you there, the boss is going to have my head on a stick." the man begged as he was thrown into a boat.
"Drive the boat...now" said a very mad Naruto as he hopped into the boat. While sailing to what look like a tower, the man got increasingly agitated. They soon docked, Naruto fired up his rage and knocked out the man and took his coat. Naruto walked towards the tower. When he got to the courtyard, he saw a sight that made his blood boil to the point of explosion. He saw children as slaves and as he followed the new intake of slaves, he caught a glimpse of a cell full of them. Naruto instantly recognized them as slaves because they were all dressed in old sacks that were tied up on shoulders.
One of the slaves had shaggy, jet black hair; it was obvious it hadn't been brushed for weeks. Naruto overheard his name to be Simon. He had stern looking brown eyes. He had a permanent frown which made him mean looking. The second child slave had uneven blond hair, tears rolling down his face.
This brought a lump to Naruto's throat, as he heard Simon to tell the boy called Sho to shut up or they will get in trouble again. The next child Naruto stared at was someone called Wally Buchanan, a cocky little chap, who looked very cunning and sly. He had black, short hair and was ready to fight anyone. A cheeky little girl was singing a song to Wally to torment him. He shouted to the girl named Millianna to shut her mouth before he filled it with rocks. She was a pretty little thing with shoulder length brown hair and eyes as bright as stars, but you could see her hiding the fear she felt within.
At the back of the cell Naruto noticed an old man only known as Rob. He was old in age with long, white hair. He was full of wisdom with the strong magical power of fire. He was the strong silent type that hid his feelings behind his long beard and hair. The last one was a girl about the same age as the other children. She had short, scarlet red hair and had cuts all over her body. She had an eye patch on her right eye. Naruto walk towards the guards.
"Oh your back so where the new slaves?" askedthe man in the red coat.
"Oh I got something better then slaves" Naruto said taking his hood down.
"Wait who are yo-"the man was about to ask before he was hit in the head by Naruto fists, knocking him unconscious.
"Lightning Dragon's Thunder Bullet" Naruto yelled as a lightning bullet hit the other guard.
"Who are you?" asked the red headed girl
"I am Naruto and I'm giving you all your freedom back" Naruto replied
Naruto saw the shocked looks on all their faces as he made his way to the old man's cell. Everyone was eyeing him curiously at what he was going to do next.
He stood in front of the cell and shot out a small beam of lightning and destroyed the lock. Everyone looked at him shocked, but a young red haired girl spoke up.
"Y-You're a mage" she stuttered out to which Naruto nodded.
"That I am" he replied. "What's your name?"
"I-I'm Erza" she replied softly.
"It's nice to meet you Erza. I want you to know that I'm here to save you all" he said sympathetically. "I'm going to make sure each and every one of you leave this place forevermore."
With this said, everyone from child to elderly had a look cross their face. A look that basically said there was still a promise that everything was going to be ok.
Naruto went round to every cell and blasted each lock of the cell doors. As they began to pour out of their cells, little Erza Scarlet spoke up again.
"Why are you rescuing us? Why do you want to save us?"
Everyone remained quiet. They too wanted to know why this young lad was risking his life to protect them. He didn't need to. He didn't even know any of them, but yet here he was.
Looking at Erza who was about a head smaller than him, he simply smiled and said, "Because what they're doing is immoral. Every single person should have liberty. I'm going to fight in order to free you all. That's a promise. I never break my promises" His smile however turned to a frown when he noticed her right eye. "Those bastards" he thought and his fists tightened.
His words caused Ezra's eyes to widen as she remembered what Jellal had told her. "We have to fight..." She repeated the words to herself. She gained a determined glint in her lone-eye as she picked up one of the dropped weapons lying on the floor.
"We have to fight! Stand up for freedom!" Stimulated by her words the rest of the slaves stood up and armed themselves with what they could find.
Naruto smiled at their willpower and gave a smile and a nod.
"Follow me! I'll show you the way out!" He shouted, running to and up the stairs he'd come down from. After arriving outside from there lockups, Naruto and the slaves came face to face with an army of cultists hell-bent on crushing Naruto and the revolt.
"You think you can rebel? Put them all down!" The head of the cultists' army shouted to his men.
Both sides charged at each other with battle cries as they began clashing swords in a massive battle with the slaves fighting as hard as they could for their freedom.
"You won't take advantage of us! Kill them all! Slaughter all the slaves!" The cultists shouted.
"Bring in the mages to take out that blond haired punk" Naruto heard which caused him to grit his teeth.
Naruto rapidly turned around and faced Erza who was fighting close by him.
"You seem to be the leader of these guys, tells everyone to stick to fighting the guards while I take out the mages." He took off from the main group and rushed towards the group of mages that were being assembled. The group saw him and began charging up their spells.
"Oh no you don't" Naruto said as a spell seal appeared in front of him.
"LIGHTNING DRAGON'S ROAR!" Naruto yelled as a big beam of yellow lightning shot forwards. It took out half the group. Then Naruto turned around, he saw one of the guards attack Ezra from behind. Naruto ran as fast as he could to stop the man's sword from cutting Ezra. As Naruto blocked the move, the sword went into Naruto left eye cutting him so deep it caused him to become enraged. He kicked the man away with all his might.
"Everyone get to the boats now!" As the slaves got to the boats, he followed holding his eye so no one could see the damage and from the blood to prevent from scaring the little ones.
"Where's Ezra old man?" Naruto asked
"She went to find Jellal" the old man replied
"Damn it" Naruto said as he ran back to get the red headed girl.
Erza arrived at Jellal's location. She'd freed him from his restraints, but she had then noticed that something was off. He started ramble nonsense about what true freedom was. He went on about how right things were here. He was adamant he wasn't leaving. He then used some strange magic to kill some cultists that had been badly beaten; they were barely clinging to life. She had pleaded with him to run away with her and explained how all of their friends were waiting for him, but then he started to rant about Zeref and the need to complete the tower.
Erza thought he was acting strange because he was tortured in such a way no words can describe. Erza announced that they were leaving. That was when Jellal turned on her. Erza never saw him act in such a vicious manner. He lifted his hand and released a blast of magic sending her crashing through a wall. Before she landed on the floor, she seemed to skid along the ground. She rolled over onto her stomach groaning in pain, she look at her friend who'd gone crazy.
"I don't need you anymore. As a reward for getting rid of those nuisances I won't kill you. You can go and find your fleeting 'freedom'." He sneered at her, a look that didn't suit an eleven year old.
"Jellal" she gasped out, feebly grasping at her throat. "Please don't do this."
"Put her down!" a voice rang out through the room. Both Jellal and Erza looked over to see Naruto standing in the doorway glaring at the blue haired boy in front of him.
"Who the hell are you? What are you doing here?" Jellal demanded.
"Me? Well I'm Naruto Namikaze. What I'm doing here? Well that's pretty easy. I'm freeing all the slaves."
Magic energy erupted out of Naruto as lightning crackled around his hands. He quickly thunder dashed in front of Jellal and pushed him away from Erza sending him across the room with a crash. Before anything else could happen, a rumble shook the tower as everyone began to struggle to get their footing.
"Damn" Naruto thought. "This place is coming down. All the fighting must have made this place unstable."
Naruto quickly turned to Erza and jogging up to her as the building began to collapse behind him. As he leaned down to pick her up he found that she was still conscious and breathing.
"Thank you..." she mouthed before passing out on his back. He smiled before running back out the way he came in as the tower began to collapse behind him. Before he left he looked to where the blue haired boy was but found he had disappeared and there was no trace of him.
As soon as Naruto began to climb on to one of the ships, he passed Erza over to Rob.
"I'm going back to see if we got everyone I will be back in ten minutes" Naruto said as he ran back toward the tower.
When Naruto got to tower, he confirmed every room. Five minutes later he came to the last room and he opened the door and saw a sight that was inhuman. He saw bodies upon bodies with eyes and limbs missing. Naruto fell to his knees with shock. When some guards surrounded Naruto, his head was down out of respect for the loss of life.
"How could you do that to all these children" ask Naruto with a voice full of rage.
"Well they tried escaping, so we had to teach them a lesson" the main leader laughed.
"GRRRRAAAGGHHHH" Naruto screamed as red energy shot out of Naruto body and into the sky. It was like a pillar creating storm clouds. Thunder and lightning could be heard from the clouds, the guards could see the young boy fingernails grow longer and harder, along with his toenails that grew at the same rate. His hair started to grow and become wilder, his teeth sharpened and look like a pair of fangs but what got everyone's attention was his right eye was no longer blue but now blood red with a slanted pupil and his whisker marks darkened in colour. Steam started to come out of his injured left eye.
"What the hell is he?" asked one of the men.
"I AM GOING TO KILL YOU ALL!" Naruto shouted as he opened his injured eye, showing everyone it was healing at an inhuman rate. As the red energy starting to take hold, a red mist formed wings and a tail shape upon him.
{Meanwhile in the sky}
A large black dragon was flying in the sky. It seemed to be flying away from a destroyed city that it just wrecked. On its back was a smell silver hair girl. When the dragon abruptly stopped in mid-flight because it felt magic it assumed was long lost.
"This magic it is demon slayer magic, a magic before the time of Zeref, but how is that possible?" the dragon said to itself. The dragon noticed a young boy about the same age of the child on its back.
"Looks like that dragon slayer has finally unlocked his storm, now nothing will stop him and Acnologia. How about I take that child off your hands, I mean you are going to leave her on X777 right so why not let her join the guild I am making" the young boy said as he looked the dragon in the eye showing no fear.
"Sure thing human, I was just going to kill the brat on X777 anyway. Why not let her live to get stronger maybe I might a decent fighter out of her yet" Acnologia said as he handed the child over.
{Back with Naruto}
"STOP HIM DO NOT LET HIM DISTROY THE TOWER" yelled one of the men as they summon up their spells.
"TAILED BEAST WIND BULLET!" yelled Naruto as he shot out a big gust of wind from his mouth.
"AHHHHHHH" yelled the guards as they were thrown back into the wall with a thump. Naruto used the red mist wings to fly outside. He started to fly up and over the tower.
"I'm not going let you go!" yelled on of the dark mages
"Earth make: wall" yelled the mage, when a big wall of earth shot out the ground blocking Naruto's path.
"You think that will stop me?!" Naruto yelled. "TAILED BEAST HELL FIRE!" Naruto shot a big ball of blood red fire from his mouth melting the wall of earth. Naruto flew high into the sky and summoned a spell seal. On top the spell seal was a one tail dog-racoon, to its right was a two tailed cat. To the right of the cat was a three tailed turtle. Following to turtle, there was a four tailed ape. After the ape there was a five tail horse. After that horse was a six tailed slug. Next to the slug was a one tail horned beetle with six wings attached to its tail. Succeeding the horned beetle was an eight tail ox with octopus tentacles for tails and next to that, to the left of the dog-racoon, was a nine tailed fox and in the centre of spell seal was what look like a 10 tailed monster as raw magic was being sucked into the seal making a small ball.
"TAILED BEAST DEVASTATION!" yelled Naruto as the ball of raw magic dropped from the spell seal and hit the island slowly. The island was consumed by a bright light. When the light had died down there was nothing left but an abyss where the island used to stand. He saw the young blue hair boy being takek away by a man in an eye patch. Naruto saw the boat with rob in it and fly to it. When he flew over the boat, the red mist that formed the wings and tails vanished. Naruto descended with speed heading for the boat and with that he passed out and collapsed into the boat.
Naruto woke up to find himself, lying on something soft. He opened his eyes and stared up at the star filled sky.
"Uh what happened" Naruto groaned as he slowly began to sit up. When he noticed something next to him, he looked over to see Erza huddled next to him peacefully sleeping.
"She has been like that ever since she found out that you passed out. She didn't want to leave you" a voice said softly. He looked over to see the old man Rob walk over to him. he sat down beside them, "How are you feeling?" he asked with great concern.
"Not too bad, I'm little sore and tired" reply Naruto as he rubbed his head.
Naruto looking down to see it his side had been bandaged up. "There were a few first aid boxes on the ship, I bandaged you up when you passed out" Rob said.
Naruto hesitated before Rob quickly spoke up. "Don't worry. I saw the scars, but I won't mention them to anyone at all. For someone so young you seem to have been through a lot. It was just me who bandaged you up. No one else saw them mind you."
Naruto took a deep breath thanking some deity that no one else saw the scars. He wasn't embarrassed of them; he just didn't want many people knowing about them until he was ready.
"Thank you" Naruto said. "I owe you one."
The old man gave a wholehearted laugh at Naruto. "My boy, if anything it's the least I could do. You just saved us and gave us our freedom back."
"Either way thank you again" to which Rob just agreed. When Naruto looked around he saw they were on the shoreline and could see Akane resort just off in the distance. "We landed on shore just over an hour ago. Thought it best to stay put for a little while and enjoy some relaxation."
Naruto nodded but spoke up. "Where is everyone else?"
"Many on the ships took off as soon as they got to land. My guess is that they just wanted to go home. Though some of the offspring I haven't seen, but then again there were a lot of ships sailing off so they must have landed somewhere else."
"Are you part a guild?" Rob asked to which Naruto shook his head. "Not at the moment but there is one guild that I do plan on joining once I'm ready."
"Which guild is that?" Rob asked.
Naruto said "Fairy Tail."
Rob had quick look of surprise cross his face before he grinned. "Ahh so you want to join Fairy Tail too huh? Little Erza here wants to do the same. Now that she knows she has magic, she can make that dream a reality. Makarov would like you two. He's is always looking for new recruits to join the Fairy Tail family."
"You know Gramps?" Naruto said in surprise.
"I use to be a part of Fairy Tail" he said turning around to show the large Fairy Tail mark on his back. "He and I were great friends and went on many journeys together. How do you know Makarov?" Rob asked to which Naruto told him about meeting Makarov in Clover town, stopping a bank robbery and Makarov inviting him to Fairy Tail.
Went their discussion began to quiet down he glanced over at Erza still sleeping next to him and once again frowned at her right eye.
"Hey old man Rob. What happened to Ezra's eye?"
Naruto saw the sad look cross onto Rob faces as the two looked down at Ezra's sleeping form.
"About a week ago the children tried to escape. They got caught but decided to only reprimand Erza. They persecuted her and cut her right eye out."
Naruto grit his teeth in antagonism. "How dare they do that to her" he thought. "She is an 11 year old girl."
"I tried to use my magic to give her my eye, but the age gap between us is too great for the magic to work."
Everything was quiet for minute, only the sound of the waves against the sand could be heard before Naruto spoke up.
"You said Erza was going to join Fairy Tail right?" to which Rob nodded. "And Fairy Tail treats each other like family. Since we're both going to be part of Fairy Tail one day then the two of us will be family. I always shield the people that I see valuable to me. Erza, I can tell is going to be very valuable to me. I won't have someone that I care about be in pain like this." The blonde paused as he looked Rob straight in the face, a look of pure seriousness shown.
"I will give her my eye" Naruto said, which caused fright to spread across Rob's face.
"B-But you hardly know her. You would really do this for someone you barely know?" to which Naruto simply nodded and gave him a small smile.
"Like I said, Erza will be family to me one day. That's all the reason I need."
"This boy" Rob thought. "He is genuinely exceptional. I see why you like him Makarov. He really would be a great addition to Fairy Tail."
Rob sighed and looked at the two. "The two of you look close enough in age so it should work" Rob said. "Come closer and we can begin to which Naruto did.
"My magic is known as Soul Magic. It's a form of Lost Magic. It can replace things such as an eye or limbs but its had to come at a cost. A sacrifice has to be made. In this case you could say and eye for an eye...literally."
"Close your right eye" Rob said to which Naruto did. Rob gently placed his hand on Naruto eye and his other gently on Ezra's eye hoping not to wake her.
"Soul Magic" Rob whispered. "Exchange". A small light erupted from Rob's hands and covered Naruto and Ezra's eyes. Naruto began to feel a tingling sensation take over his before he felt what he could only describe as a pop sensation. Like his eye just disappeared. He looked down at Erza and slowly saw something beginning to form in her empty eye socket.
Within a minute, the exchange was complete.
"It's done" Rob said as his magic began to die down.
He brought his hand up to his eye and could feel the emptiness in it. Naruto tore some cloth from his shirt and wrapped it around his head, covering his right eye.
Naruto took a deep breath before standing up. "It's time I left. I have to get back to Clover Town. My sensei will be arriving there in a few days do its best I get going now."
Rob nodded and gave his thanks to Naruto again.
"Are you going to say good bye to Erza?" To which Naruto shook his head.
"Let her sleep. It's been a long day. Just tell her that I will see her again one day in Fairy Tail" to which Rob nodded.
Naruto turned and began to walk away and step onto the path away from the beach. However, before he could go any further he heard rapid footsteps coming from behind him. Naruto turned around to see Erza, now awake, running towards him and crash right into him, wrapping her arms around him.
"Please don't go. I don't want to be abandoned " she cried.
"You're not going to be alone Erza. You want to join Fairy Tail right?" he asked to which she nodded into his chest. "Well then from what I have been told, Fairy Tail is a great place and you will make great friends there."
"B-but you won't be" there she said.
"Yes ,but I got something to do first. I will be at fairy tail in a week hopefully I see you then, ok Ezra?" Naruto said to Erza as she let go of him.
"Ok, but you better be there so you can help me get stronger" replied Erza.
"Yeah, ok I promise you'll see me then, I never break my promises" as Naruto walk away.
"You better...my hero" Erza replied as she and Rob walked to the train.
{2 days later at the mountain}
"Hi mom...I am back" Naruto said as he walked up to the dragon.
"Naruto so good to see you. What happen to your eyes?!" asked Kaminari with shock and surprise at seeing her only child with optical injuries.
"I gave my left one to a girl name Ezra and my right one was cut out and then healed by my demon magic" reply Naruto.
"Naruto look in the lake" said Kaminari.
Naruto looked into the late and he saw that his right eye was red with a slanted pupil.
"What the hell?!" Naruto said as he look closer at his eye in the water
"Look like your demon slayer magic gave you a whole new eye" said Kaminari
"Mom can you give me a new eye please?" Naruto as looking at the dragon
"Sure, my old man left me his eye as a memento. He died a year ago, but I'm going to seal most of your magic since the eye might drain you of your magic at first when you begin using it" replied Kaminari as she took out a small jar with a golden dragon's eye.
After implanting the eye into Naruto and sealing his magic off, Naruto went to fairy tail where he saw Erza and Makarov after a week. Naruto was asked by Makarov to go find a dragon slayer name Natsu and he said yes and he went off.
{At the same time at the magic council}
"So, is it done?" asked a young boy with brown hair and green eyes who stood in wooden armour.
"Yeah, Holy Tail is now a light guild" said a red and black headed boy. He was clothed in ripped blue jeans and sleeveless shirt with a long coat with the word first master. On his right arm were two deep golden swirls coming together to form an eye of a storm.
"About time Shadow, I always said we should be a light guild" said a young silver hair girl. She had sky blue eyes and was wearing gothic clothes.
"Let's go to introduce ourselves to Fairy Tail Lilith, Billy," said the red and black headed boy.
"Yes master Hikaru" replied Billy and Lilith.
