Chapter 1
Dreams of Mirrors
Chiron looks out at the camp that is normally filled with campers, but now it only has those that are year round campers. The summer ended on a sad note. Percy left to go home and be with his mother, Annabeth went to try and spend time with her father, step-mother, and half siblings, Grover is on his journey to find the Lost God, Pan. But what made Chiron really sad was that Luke went turncoat not just on the camp, but also on the Gods.
There many things that wish he could of done differently. For one he'd wished that he could of done something for Luke from turning against Olympus; tried to see that the Gods are very busy and couldn't make much time for their children like they wanted too. Apollo was the only one of the Gods that would visit every now and then to see his children. Chiron was glad that Annabeth is trying to mend the bonds with her family. Then there was Percy, he wanted Percy to stay and become a year round camper to train him personally. Try and give Percy an edge for not if, but when he fights against Luke.
As Chiron made his rounds he arrived at the dining pavilion. The year round campers arrived for lunch just as the Dryards walk out of the trees, the Naiads came up from the canoe, and the satyrs came from the meadows. The old trainer looks at several of the campers Clarisse La Rue being one of the few of Ares' kids that stay year round, Charles Beckendorf being the only child of Hephaestus that's year round, Travis and Connor Stroll being the new consolar after Luke became a turncoat, Silena Beauregard and two other of Aphrodite's children, Lee Fletcher from Apollo, Katie Gardner and Miranda Gardiner from Demeter to only to name a few.
Chiron watches and wonders what the coming years will foretell. With the Great Prophecy coming to play, but he also wonders about the prophecy that about the floating island of Delos. Ah, now that brings back memories. The island that Gaia herself blessed and enchanted to always be one with nature. She even went as far to plant the Tree of Life there. But, where there is life, there is also death. Because of the Tree of Life is there, so is the Tree of Death. Chiron quickly banish those thoughts.
The hearth that is in the center of the dining pavilion spiked became three times its normal size. The flames spit out a thirteen years old injured boy. Chiron gallops over to the boy and checks the boy's injures. The age centaur examines the wounds; none aren't life threatening, but the gaping hole in the boy's chest has him worried.
"Take the boy to the Big House," order Chiron.
Clarisse and Lee runs over picks up the boy and quickly heads to the Big House. Chiron let his mind wonders, thinking of every possible question and answer to what caused that wound? What caused the boy to fly out of the hearth? Who is this boy? But what made him really think is who is the boy's parent? Chiron takes a glance at the hearth before galloping to the Big House.
Clarisse and Lee raced towards the Big House as the boy she is carrying to bleeding out all over her. Clarisse questions what kind of fight caused these kind of injures. From the looks of it his clothes are burned, but there aren't any burn wounds on his skin. They quickly got inside and into the infirmary.
Clarisse put the boy on one of the beds. Lee now has a better look at the boy and quickly thinking of a possible younger brother, but quickly banish those thoughts for now. The son of Apollo has some difficulty cutting the orange jumpsuit the boy is wearing to properly clean the wounds, but still manages to cut through it.
"What do you need?" questioned Clarisse
"I need you to get ambrosia and nectar… and a gorgon's eye," says Lee as he tries to stop the bleeding.
Clarisse quickly grabs ambrosia, nectar, and Lee's strange request for a gorgon's eye. She came back hands all the items to Lee. Lee grabs a nearby spoon pours the nectar in it and spoon feed the boy. The son of Apollo rubs the boy's throat causing him to swallow the nectar. Lee takes the gorgon's eye.
"My father, Apollo take this gorgon's eye as an offering to heal this boy's wounds," prays Lee.
The gorgon's eye burst in sparkles of light that fall onto the boy's wounded chest; healing the wound, but leaves a scar the size of a fist. Lee sighs at the sight of the scar. Now that Lee has time to actually look at the boy. The blonde hair makes him wonder if he has a new little brother, but then Apollo would of claimed him as soon he appeared. Apollo is known to claim all his children when they arrived at camp just like Aphrodite and Demeter.
Chiron wheels into the infirmary sitting in his magical wheelchair. He sighs in relief. The age trainer wheels over to get a better look at the boy.
"I see everything went fine," said Chiron
"Yes, everything went fine, though his clothes were difficult to cut through, but I manage," says Lee
"That's good," Chiron looks at the two demigods, "Why don't you two go and get clean up and eat something. I'll have Argus to watch over our new guest." says Chiron.
Both of them leave the infirmary. Chiron turns his head to the boy. Chiron has so many questions running through his mind again. So many questions and so few answers. The one thing he did realize is this boy is from the island of Delos. Which means one of the Gods have broken another forbidden law. In order for any of the Gods to have children from the island of Delos they have to file the paperwork. The last one to have a child there was Aphrodite and that was thirty seven years ago. Chiron wasn't like this one bit, first Percy Jackson was the child of Poseidon, which he believe the Great Prophecy, now this boy is most likely the one the prophecy said about the island of Delos.
"Sigh… what am I going to do with you, my boy?" questions Chiron.
The next day the camp was stirring with the new arrival. Mr. D was called to Mount Olympus. Lee was checking up on the mysterious boy. There was really nothing for Lee to do for the boy.
"I wished Will was here; he'd know what to do," said Lee.
Lee looks over and see that Argus watching over the boy. Last evening the boy's jumpsuit was taken off along with the headband. During it they found an empty pouch and a leg casing that housed several strange knives, and can't forget the funny shaped toad wallet. When morning came a blue scroll was next to the sleeping boy. When Chiron tried to open it his hand was burned.
"How is he?" asked Chiron.
Lee nearly jumped out of his skin from Chiron sneaking up on him. Chiron just chuckles at the son of Apollo. Lee put his chest to calm his heart down.
"He's fine just sleeping for now. The scar is another thing. Usually when a blessed healing is done there is no scars remaining," says the confuse Lee
"Chakra…" says Chiron as he stares at the electrical scar
"Huh?"
"I'm not surprised you haven't heard of it. You heard of the floating island of Delos, correct?" questioned Chiron
"Of course, that's the island the Leto had my Dad, Apollo and Artemis," answered Lee
"Delos has always been special. The people there are able to use something called Chakra. Chakra is the combination of spiritual energy and physical energy which gives them powers that can rival Half-bloods and even Minor Gods," said Chiron
Lee's eyes widen, "How… How is that possible?" asked Lee
"Don't know. He he, that's been driving Athena craze because she can't find out how Chakra came to be. There are too many theories. But all the Gods agree that they should be watched carefully. There is so much war and death on Delos that Thanatos is worshiped heavily over there. Hades hates it because of all the paperwork," said Chiron
Lee chuckles at about the part where Hades hate paperwork, "How come there aren't that many Half-bloods from Delos then?" asked Lee
"Because those that are born Half-bloods from Delos are powerful. One of the Half-bloods there was a child of Demeter how could grow a whole forest from his Chakra allow. The last Half-blood even was able to move through space and time. Ha ha, that one was Aphrodite's child. Zeus made it so that any Gods wanting to have a demigod from Delos has to file the paperwork." answered Chiron
"Do you think I have a new little brother?" asked Lee
"Hmm, no." Chiron takes in the sleeping boy's looks, "Blonde hair and…" Chiron opens one of the boy's eyelid seeing a blue eye. "While blonde hair and blues eyes are common in Apollo's children. He doesn't have the same aura like you or your siblings have." stated Chiron
"Then…" Lee hesitated, "Zeus?" quietly asked Lee
"Possible, but no. Zeus' children have an aura like the sky or lightning. While I do sense some sky in his aura it could be because of his Chakra. There are too many questions and we won't know til he wakes up." said Chiron
Just as Chiron finished the boy stirs in his sleep. Naruto rubs his eyes as he sits up. As Naruto looks around and notices that he isn't in the hospital. He notices a man sitting in a wheelchair, a boy who looks to be a few years older then him, and some strange guy with multiple eyes on his hands and face.
"Watashi no iru tokoro?" asked Naruto as he looks around the room for the quickest escape route.
"Ah, Japanese!" said Chiron
"Nani tte itta no? Dono yo ni watashi wa anata o rikai suru koto wa dekimasen kuru?" asked Naruto
"My Japanese is a little rusty, but I'll give it a try. Kon'nichiwa. Ima mo shinpaishinaide kudasai. Wareware wa, mottomo shinkokunadatta kega de anata o mitsuketa. Watashinonamaeha kairon de, anata no namae wa nanidesu ka?" said Chiron
"Watahinonameaha uzumakinarutodesu. Koko wa doko?" answered Naruto
"A, sate anata wa kyanpuhafuburaddo ni iru. Chodo 1-byo o machimasu." said Chiron.
Chiron rolls out of the infirmary. As Naruto waits for Chiron to return he turns his head to Lee. Of course Lee doesn't know any Japanese to talk to the boy. But before Naruto could ask anything of Lee, Chiron wheeled back in the infirmary. Chiron tossed a coin to Naruto who caught it.
"Sate, kore wa kimyo ni kikoeruga, sono koin o nomikomu shiyou to shite iru." says Chiron
"NANI?!" shouted Naruto
"Sore koin wa watashitachi no gengo de hanashi o suru noryoku o teikyo shimasu." says Chiron quickly calming Naruto down
"Watashi wa loin de chissoku shinai nodarou ka?" asked Naruto
Chiron chuckles, "Anata ga sora o nomikomu toki ie, shonen no watashi, anata wa koin de chissoku shimasen." answered Chiron.
Naruto looks at the coin seeing an owl on one side, then flips the coin of and see some type of symbol. He questions if it's fuinjutsu. The blonde brings the coin to his mouth and put it in. Soon as he did the coin on its own went down his throat. Naruto grabs his throat, trying to stop it but the coin fades away.
"What… What the hell old man!" yelled Naruto between a combination of coughing and shouting
"I can understand him!" a shocked Lee says
"What I gave you was a special coin; when swallowed gives you the ability to speak our language. Reading though…" Chiron left open
"What happened? Why am I here? Where's Sasuke? How come I'm not in Konoha?" questioned Naruto
"I'm afraid I don't have any of those answers. But where we came to check up on you think morning this scroll was here." said Chiron.
Naruto looks over next to him and see a blue scroll lying next to him. The blonde picks it up the scroll and tries to open it. Then Naruto remembers about some scrolls that can only be unlocked by Chakra so he flared his Chakra into the scroll and opened it. Chiron just sighed when he saw that. How could he forgot about seals. Naruto put some more of his Chakra into the scroll to get the items out of it. A letter, another scroll, and a blue scarf.
"Uh, what are all these? And where did the first scroll come from?" asks Naruto
"Naruto have you heard of the Gods?" questioned Chiron
"Kami? What does Kami have to do with anything?" asks Naruto
"Naruto, you are in a special camp. A camp which only let special people in," says Chiron
"Are you crazy?" Naruto asked as he looks around.
"No, Naruto you are from the floating island of Delos. But your people call it the Elemental Countries. Why don't you read the letter before anything else is said." said Chiron.
Naruto gives Chiron a look of disbelief. He started to wonder if he has some of the worst luck by finding weirdos. The blonde picks up the letter and opens it.
Dear Naruto,
I know this must be strange for you to be waking up in a strange place. Even more so when you are asked if you heard of the Gods. Now don't think of Kami, but other gods. I want to let you know that you are right now outside of the Elemental Countries.
I know this is hard to believe, but everything is going to be fine. You are with your family now in a since. You are now with people that won't look down on you and forgive me for not being there for you. Please try to keep an open mind to what you're being tell too. I can't tell you who I am yet, but know this, I love you, my Little Maelstrom.
Love, Kaa-chan.
Naruto didn't know what to make of it. First that he wasn't in the Elemental Countries, second that there are Gods, third that he has a family, and finally his mother is alive. He remembers how the villagers would say that he was abandon because she didn't want a demon child, or that she was some whore. So he'll do what every Shinobi, he'll endure.
