Naruto moved quietly through the woods in the dead of night, clutching a large scroll closely. He seriously couldn't believe his luck.
He'd found a contract, he'd just found a contract.
He'd asked Kakashi about summons after seeing his dogs in action against Zabuza. He'd been told of how rare they were, that most ninja went their whole lives without signing one...
And Naruto had just freaking found one under a tree!
And not only that, but judging by the stylized tails on the scroll, and the picture, it wasn't just any contract...
It was the Fox Contract...
With something like Kyuubi around, the Foxes had to be strong, right? All awesome with big tails and stuff...
Maybe if Naruto had some foresight, he might have thought that Foxes might act like Kyuubi, that they might be vengefull, or angry...
But this was Naruto...
Signing the contract like Kakashi had said, Naruto ran through the handsigns, then-
"Summoning Jutsu!"
With a plume of smoke, Naruto was greeted with...
Snoring...
"What the," Naruto trailed off as the smoke cleared, revealing...
Well, it was furry, sorta golden yellow, and it's ears and two tails were like a fox's, but it was...it's body was like a kid, maybe even younger than Naruto, and wearing shoes and gloves.
"Um," Naruto thought for a moment before poking the creature, "Hey, wake-up." Okay, maybe summoning in the dead of night wasn't the greatest idea.
"Ug," The fox groaned, sitting up, "Sorry, Sonic, must have fallen asleep on the workshop..floor...again?" The fox looked up at the unknown blond, his eyes going very wide as they locked with Naruto's.
For a moment, there was silence, not even the forest insects making a noise before-
"AAAHHH!" The fox rolled into a flip, his tails coming down on Naruto's head with surprising force, knocking the ninja into blissful unconsciousness...
(((((((((())))))))))
"Ugh, damn it," Naruto groaned through his head ache, "What hap-"
"Don't move!" Naruto looked up, a little too quickly for his aching head, to find the Fox glaring at him, holding an odd, yellow ring like a shuriken, "This dummy ring has enough of an explosive charge to fell that tree, even going through you."
Naruto gulped, maybe doing this alone wasn't a great idea, "Whoa, hey, easy."
"Who are you and why did you kidnap me?"
"Whoa, kidnap?" Naruto shook his head rapidly, "Nonono, I just summoned you."
The fox looked confused, but didn't lower the ring bomb, "Summoned? What are you talking about?"
Now Naruto looked confused, "You know, summoning jutsu? The contract that lets me summon foxes from your clan?" Really, shouldn't he know this?
"My...clan?" The fox trailed off, "I don't have a clan, and I don't know what a jutsu is, so just send me back."
...Crap, "Um, I don't know how, I thought the ones I summoned would..."
The foxes eye twitched, locking with Naruto's blue eyes. There was silence for a moment before he slumped, "Aw, man, how am I gonna get home? Who's gonna keep up maintenance on the Tornado? And I have to be at Miss Vanilla's in the morning to fix her television! Aunt Sally is going to be worried sick! And-"
"Easy," Naruto said, grabbing the fox by his shoulders, trying to stop a nervous breakdown, "Look, we'll go see Old Man Hokage, he'll know how to fix this!"
(((((((((())))))))))
"I'm afraid there's nothing I can do right now, Naruto." The Third Hokage sighed, taking out his pipe.
"What?" The young pair exclaimed.
"But, you're, like, the smartest guy ever, Old Man," Naruto groaned, "You've got to know how to send him back."
"I'm sorry, Naruto, but with your friend having no training or knowledge of jutsu, he currently lacks the ability to use the Self-Dismissal jutsu that would return him home," The Hokage explained before taking a deep puff and exhaling, "Our only option would be to wait for you summoning to wear off and for him to be pulled back home naturally."
"How long would that be, Mr. Hokage?" The young mobian asked.
Taking another pull from his pipe, Hiruzen thought for a moment before answering, "Well, it depends on how much chakra was used by Naruto to summon you. However, given his lower level of control and propensity to use far more chakra than called for, it could be days, weeks...months, maybe."
"Months?" Tails repeated as his expression fell.
"Wait," Naruto said, having a rare second of brilliance, "What if I taught him how to be a ninja and stuff, then he could learn how to go home on his own."
Leaning back in his seat, the Hokage nodded, "I suppose its possible. Usually, training would have to begin earlier, but I'm not sure on the training of summons, let alone of your specific clan."
Looking away, sheepishly, Tails took a moment before saying, "I wouldn't really know, I never met my parents, at least not that I can remember."
Looking somber for a moment, Naruto flashed a smile, "Hey, it'll be fine, I'll teach you how to be a kick-ass ninja just like me! We'll be the most awesome team ever, 'ttebayo!"
In a whole other world, several beings, including an immortal Mammoth, a narcissistic Owl and a fat Scientist, shuddered with an odd sense of foreboding.
A.N. And another bit. I will out and out say, Tails is my Favorite Sonic character, and I really wish he would get another game of his own.
I also will say, Tails may be the biggest bad-ass in the Sonic Games. Yes, some may see him as the sidekick, maybe a bit whiny, always in the shadows, but consider this...
First, in Sonic Adventure, Tails can use his tails to defeat robots...Let that stew for a moment, possibly one of the weakest, most vulnerable parts of most mammals, and he's not only using his to fly, but smash and cut through metal.
Second, in Sonic Adventure 2, his hero, idol and all around Bro, Sonic, gets tossed into prison. Not just any prison, but a high tech, state of the art, Gatling-gun-robot guarded, officially-does-not-exist military prison. And what does Tails do? Does he try and correct this case of mistaken identity with the government? Does he go for help? Does he ball up and cry like most 8-year olds probably would? (Yeah, he's 8 in the games and builds rocket ships, another point with a dash of "What did you losers do by the time you were nine?")
No, he turns his bi-plane/jet into a walker-mech-o'-death, armed with missiles, homing lasers, guns and enough armaments to commit a war crime (Which, this whole mission may qualify as) and goes to pull off his own prison break (Again, at 8 years old!)
And one last point, in his own game, Tails Adventure, Tails is on Cocoa Island, which he may own according to some sources (His is the only damn residence there and, while not necessarily bad-ass, owning his own island is all sorts of Pimpin'). While chillin' at his workshop (First of Four, before his home/workshops in the Mystic Ruins, Emerald City and Central City meaning he owns more property than any of us, again, not bad-ass, but definitely pimp), his island comes under attack by a Fully Armed Armada who proceed to bomb the shit out of his island home.
Again, does Tails run for help or cry like any normal 8-year old? No, he goes all Rambo on their avian asses, fighting through caves, forests and their own mobile attack base with bombs, napalm and remote control robots (No joke, that is seriously his arsenal). He even breaks out a submarine to fight them at sea with torpedoes and a handy little electrocution device that zaps anything in range right to hell.
Now team up all that bad-assery with the soon to be awesomeness that Naruto will grow into, and you have a bro-team that will never be beaten.
Overpowered, yes, but definitely awesome.
