Chakra Dragon Slayer
Chapter 2: Birthday's and Goodbye's
6 years later x774
Naruto woke up with a huge smile on his face, today was October 10th. Naruto's birthday. This birthday was special though, because today he turned ten years old, and Hagormo said because he would finally be reaching double digits he would teach Naruto a some of the Dragon Slayer Secret Arts.
Naruto climbed on top of his father's nose (or snout whatever floats your boat) and started jumping up and down shouting for him to wake up. Eventually he opened and eye that was as big as Naruto himself. He then picked Naruto up by the back of his shirt and placed him off to the side and then continued to sleep
A tick mark appeared on Naruto's head, he hated when his dad did this. Why out of all the dragons out there did he get stuck with the grouchy dragon that always slept in way past noon, sure he was powerful. Hell, he was only matched by a few when it came to power and strength but he was just so damn lazy it wasn't even funny.
Having enough of Hagoromo's laziness he saw a few rocks on the ground in the cave they were currently in and threw them straight at the dragon's head. He knew it wouldn't hurt, it wans't that he wasn't physically strong, no in terms of strength he was above average for kids his age. But throwing rocks at a dragon it would be less than him being flicked I the forehead, he knew however like being constantly flicked that you would eventually loose your patience.
Minutes later Naruto had made no progress and was growing tired of this now. He grinned and knew what would wake his father up. He took a deep breath and gathered a large amount of magic energy and let it all out in one big roar and shouted
"Chakra Dragons Roar!"
it was then that a large beam of blue chakra shot straight out of his mouth and hit the huge chakra dragon straight in the face. This of course had the desired affect as Hagoromo was now very much awake.
"Ok Naruto I'm up, I'm up calm down" Hagoromo said his tone of voice clearly showing his irritation with his son
"Good now you can give me presents and teach me those new moves your promised so I can totally kick some butt!" Naruto yelled in excitement all while making some punching motions as if he were in a boxing match.
"Yes of course Naruto I shall give you your present" the dragon said as he pulled out what appeared to be a bright red scarf with six white Magatama similar to Hagoromo's own on one end of the scarf, the scarf felt smooth and sleek in Naruto's hand, yet durable.
Naruto wrapped the scarf around his neck he instantly felt much warmer and it was indeed very comfortable. Naruto gave a foxy smile to his adoptive father "Thanks Tou-san I'll never loose it. I promise and I never break my promises!" he exclaimed
Hagoromo smiled at that. The boy was right he always did like to keep his promises, and to this day he still had kept ever single promise. "well Naruto I'm glad you like it now what do you say I teach you those spells I promised you?" he asked
he knew instantly he had Naruto's attention he always wanted to become stronger and learn more,he always worked hard and never gave up and he had inhumane stamina to compliment his drive and determination
"Yeah!" Naruto said with an excited face "what am I going to learn is it some super cool move that knocks everyone out in one hit?. Or does it turn me into an actual Dragon?! Huh? Which is it?!"
Hagoromo sighed as much as he loved his son he always went over the top and was so hyperactive it could become unbearable. "No Naruto I'm afraid that no such spell exists. However this first spell is an enhancement spell known as the Chakra Drive it improves speed, strength, awareness and your senses."
"Whoa that's cool now lets get to learning!" Naruto shouted
Hagoromo smiled once again at his eagerness 'Oh my boy how I'm going to miss you' he thought. He quickly pushed those thoughts to the back of his mind he still had a few more years to be with Naruto and he planned to make every second count so he decided to get back to Naruto's training.

"Chakra Dragon's Hammer Drop!"
The clearing in the forests just outside of Oshibana Town was completely obliterated in an instant, when the dust cleared there stood a young blonde teen that looked around 13. Naruto had changed a lot other the years he had spent with Hagoromo his hair had grown much longer, it was just as wild and gravity defying as before now he had two medium sized bangs that came half way down his face, framing just above his chin with several large strands of hair covering his forehead. His eyes still remained blue however he now had silted pupils as a side effect of his Dragon Slayer Magic.
Hagoromo of course got him out of his torn dirty clothes years ago when they first met, he now wore simple black boots with black cargo trousers with large pockets on the sides of the legs. He currently had on a simple short sleeved white t-shirt along with his scarf he got for his 10th birthday which he rarely took off, he even slept with it on most of the time. Naruto also had grown in height and now stood at an impressive 5ft 4".
"Well done Naruto it appears you have finally mastered the Chakra Dragons Hammer Drop. You certainly are most impressive" Hagoromo said as he looked over to his adoptive son, pride evident on his face.
"Yes I finally got it down properly! Ha just you wait Tou-san now I'm going to be the strongest mage ever and make you proud of me. Believe it!" Naruto shouted
'My boy you already have made me proud, it is why it pains me that I have to leave you today' Hagoromo thought sadly. He had been dreading this day for years now, he could only imagine how some of the others must be feeling mainly Igneel. He knew how close he was to his son Natsu, he would never forget that day when him and Naruto met for the first time
Flashback 2 years ago
Naruto was walking through the woods with his head looking up at the sky and the clouds just floating there peacefully undisturbed. The clouds then broke apart and the sun shone through blinding Naruto as he covered his eyes with his hands he wasn't paying attention to where he was going or his surrounding then suddenly...
"OOFH"
"OOFH"
Naruto had no idea what just happened one minute he was cloud watching and then the next he was sitting on his ass rubbing his sore head. He looked up to see a boy not much younger than him maybe bye two years or so, with wild hair like his only his was... pink?!
As Naruto stood up and got a closer look at the boy in front of him. He wore a red long sleeved t-shirt, along with light and bark brown shorts. Like Naruto he had a scarf too, only his was white and had a scaly looking pattern that reminded him of dragon scales. 'Man pink hair that's weird' Naruto thought, however he was brought out of his thoughts when he realised the pink haired boy was shouting at him
"huh what did you say?" Naruto asked
"I said watch where you're going blondie!"
A tick mark appeared on Naruto's forehead "Hey who you calling blondie, pinky?! And also you ran into me idiot, you watch where you're going!" the blonde dragon slayer shouted
"OI you want fight or something?!" the strange pink haired male shouted back
"Oh you're on! I won't even have to break a sweat"
At that the boys hand erupted into brilliant flames that danced and flickered in the sunlight.'This guy uses magic?' Naruto thought as he saw the boy charge him. He smirked and then Naruto's own hand was suddenly covered in a blue aura that was his Chakra Dragon Slayer Magic. As both boy's charged each other both cried out as they landed a hit on each other's faces at the same time
"Chakra Dragon's Steel Fist!"
"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"
As the hits connected both boys where sent flying backwards on the ground. As they eventually hoisted themselves up they quickly remembered what the other had said and then suddenly
"YOU'RE A DRGON SLAYER TOO!" they both shouted at each other pointing at the other. It was then they realised since they were both dragon slayers that one had to outdo the other. They charged each other again with their fists alight with they're respective Dragon Slayer Magic. It was then Naruto noticed his fellow dragon slayer's form was well off, Naruto deduced he must have been more of a brawler and decided to use this to his advantage as his defence would be sloppy and it wouldn't be too hard to get inside of his guard.
Taking advantage of his opponents sloppy moves Naruto ducked a fiery fist heading straight for his head and then ignited his foot in chakra and shouted "Chakra Dragon's Wing Kick!" he then round house kicked the pink haired boy in straight in the face sending him straight to the ground in a heap of pain.
Naruto deciding to take advantage of his opponent being down he charged his fits with chakra and jumped high in the air smashing his fists together and proceeding to bring them down on the fire dragon slayer he shouted "Chakra Dragon's-"
"Fire Dragon's Roar!"
Naruto had absolutely no time to react as he was hit in mid air by the massive fire attack and sent backwards before he could complete his own attack. He had to admit that one really hurt, this guy was far from a push over.
"(pant) what's (pant) your name?" the fire dragon slayer asked him
"Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki, son of Hagoromo" he said in-between pants "You?" he asked in return
The pink haired boy smiled at the name 'Fishcake'. "Natsu Dragneel, son of Igneel. Nice to meet ya Fishcake" he smirked as he saw Naruto grow a tick mark
"Hey it means maelstrom you hothead!" he shouted at Natsu. He hated when people called him fishcake, why couldn't people see it meant maelstrom it sounded so much cooler and more bad-ass to him, fishcake just made him sound lame and he hated sounding lame! He was the son of dragon for heavens sake not some fish.
He was about to continue to with their argument when he heard and all too familiar voice. "Naruto would you mind telling me what's going and why I could sense you fighting this young boy with your magic I told you not to use it yet unless you are in danger" Hagoromo said looking at the boy just daring him to try defy him but before anything could be said another large beloowing voice sounded out
"Are you saying my son isn't a threat Hagoromo?" asked the voice. All three turned to see Igneel the most powerful of all fire dragons. Igneel was a large dragon roughly the same size as Hagoromo he had a white underbelly like that of Hagoromo as well as red scales. However Igneel had a pointed horn on the edge of his nose (or snout) and had had small appendages on the side of his head that looked fairly familiar to that of his wings only scaled down. Igneel also had bright yellow yes that shone so bright it wasn't clear if he had a pupil or not in his eyes.
"My my Igneel-kun it certainly has been awhile since we last crossed paths hmm? Although I must say you have aged far better than I" Hagoromo said to his fellow dragon.
"Oh shut it you old coot" Igneel said "Mind telling me what your son here was doing attacking Natsu?"
Naruto was the one to answer the fire dragons questions "Hey he was the one asking for a fight and started busting out magic first!"
Igneel sighed at this"Why does that not surprise me?" The fire dragon asked rhetorically before turning to Natsu "Natsu what have I told you about being a hothead" Igneel said as he continued to lecture Natsu on using his brain first. Naruto of course couldnt help but snicker at the 'hothead' comment as it was quite literally true.
Hagoromo finally spoke up "Well as nice as this was Igneel-kun I'm afraid me and Naruto must be leaving." Naruto then proceeded to climb on top of his fathers head as they flew off he left Natsu with one last comment "See you around flame-brain!" he shouted .
Flashback End
Hagoromo smiled at that memory but quickly turned back to Naruto and said "Now Naruto as a reward why don't you go into town and get yourself some lunch hmm?" as he handed his son as much jewels as he could carry
"Yeah ramen, ramen, ramen!" he shouted and ran off. As he ran he quickly shouted back "Thanks Tou-san, I love you!" and as soon as the words left his mouth he was gone and Hagoromo knew he would most likely never see the boy again. He then flew off thinking about how much he was going to miss his Naruto.
23 bowls of ramen later
Naruto had just finished dozens of bowls of ramen like he did every time he went to Ichiraku Ramen. And was currently making his way back to where he lived with Hagoromo. Thinking back to the massive chakra dragon, Naruto couldn't help but notice that he had been very distant lately. It was rather strange, it had started at the beginning at the year which was rather odd. Was it like a special dragon thing that happened only once like ten years or something? He really had no idea but he was defiantly going to bring it up at some point.
He came out of his thoughts when he noticed he was at his destination. But something was wrong, where was Hagoromo? He never said he was going out to get, or do anything. Naruto just shrugged it off and decided he could do with a nap after all that ramen so he went over to a tree propped himself up against it and let sleep take him.
He woke later and realized something 'It's Morning!' he thought. But where was his Tou-san? He should have been back by now. Now he was really getting worried, It's not like he got hurt, he was a dragon one of the most powerful of his species this was making no sense at all.
"TOU-SAN!" he shouted "TOU-SAN!" he shouted again. This continued the entire day as he search for what felt like forever, but he continued on he just wanted to see Hagoromo again.
He then found himself at a small pond, it was then he realized that his throat was sore from all the shouting. He fell to his knee's and drank up the water faster than a dog that had been left out in the sun too long. After he was done he just stayed there and looked at his reflection in the water. Why? Why did he leave? Was he not good enough? Not strong enough? It was then the water started to ripple, he was crying, it was only a few tears but he then let it all out he sat there and cried into the heavens for what seemed like an eternity. He didn't know it but all across Fiore other dragon slayers just like him wept along side him.
A month had passed since Hagoromo had left young Naruto all alone and for the month he had managed to survive with the jewels he was left. But he was running low now and wouldn't be able to survive much longer, he needed money, he needed to join a guild.
Yes it was the only way he could get the money he needed to live now. From the amount of noise coming from Naruto's pocket he guessed he had just enough left to afford a train, so with that he set off towards Clover Town to get a train to anywhere that had a guild.
Clover Town
Makarov Dreyar sighed as he walked through the streets of Clover Town on his way to the train station. He had just come from a guild masters meeting held in Clover Town, it was the same as it usually was for him just meeting up with old friends such as Master Bob of Blue Pegasus, and discussing happenings with their guilds of course there was quite the fair bit of talk about his guild again. Fairy Tail always had a reputation for leveling entire towns and recently it was no different.
He had to chuckle at the thought of the magic counsel getting all the complaints about Fairy Tail, however this meant the guild was always getting punished for their actions. He really wish the guild members would show some restraint for once, Erza Scarlet one of their newer mages who joined last year was one of the only ones who didn't seem to destroy everything she touched. He wondered just how long that would last...
As he was thinking he didn't notice where he was going and bumbled straight into someone and fell over. He looked up to see a teen with sun kissed blonde hair, blue silted eyes, a red scarf with regular black cargo trousers and boots.
"Oh hey sorry old man I didn't see you there with yo being shorter than me an' all" the teen said giving an eye smile and a foxy grin.
"No problem young man, I should have been watching where I was going" Makarov replied as he dusted himself off after getting up off the ground.
Naruto studied the short old man for a second. He had a big white moustache, Naruto couldn't say much about his hair as he had on some weird blue and orange hat that looked like something a jester would wear. His jacket also matched his hat but rather than striped it was pure orange with Blue cuffs on the sleeves. Under the jacket was a white t-shirt with some weird insignia in black that looked a bit like a fairy? He decided to question him on that "Hey wants the insignia on your shirt?" he questioned
Makarov smirked at that question "Oh this is the Fairy Tail guild insignia" he said
Naruto smiled at that. 'looks like I hit the jackpot' he thought. "Cool your in a guild old man? But aren't you a bit too old to be a mage?" he asked. It was a reasonable question, the guy looked like he was in his 80's
"I'm actually the guild master, and why do you say that, are you a mage?" Makarov asked the boy
Naruto gave a wide smile "Damn right I am!" he shouted. "Hey I don't suppose I could join your guild could I, or do I have to go through some stupid test?"
"Well of course you can young man. Can I ask your name?"Makarov asked. He could see great potential in this child he had a huge amount of magic energy leaking out of him subconsciously
"Names Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki"
"Nice to meet you Naruto, I'm Makarov Dreyar. Now what do you say he go catch the train before it leaves eh?"
As they sat on the train on their way to Magnolia Naruto discovered something he never knew about himself.
He had very, very bad motion sickness
when they arrived at magnolia station Naruto threw himself off the train and started kissing the ground as if it was the holiest thing in the whole of Fiore. Makarov had to chuckle at that he was just as bad if not worse than the guilds newest official member Natsu when it came to motion sickness.
After a few minutes Naruto finally stood up and was ready to go Makarov spoke up "Well come on we might as well get going" As they walked through the town Makarov explained the basics of how a guild worked. Explaining how a mage took a job from the board and how they could complete it solo or with a partner/ team. He also went into a rough explanation of the S-class mission system and S-class mages. It was at this point Naruto declared he'd be a SS-class mage in no time, which caused Makarov to smile at the young man's enthusiasm.
It was then that the tow found themselves in front of the Fairy Tail guild.(A/N: I don't really need to explain what it looks like plus I would do a crappy job at it anyway) Makarov was the first to speak
"Well Naruto welcome to Fairy Tail!"
