(Marshalanime does not own Naruto or Fate/Stay Night)
'What is this place?' Saber wondered as she looked around the small field surrounded by trees when her gaze landed on a small blond boy on an alter. 'I see. This must be one of Naruto's memories' Saber thought as she walked up to her young master. "So young, and yet you're already in such a position" Saber said as she looked at the massive fox that was bound by golden chains.
"Kushina!" a man that looked nearly the same as Naruto as she knew him said in concern as he ran over to a red haired woman. "Now!" the fox roared as it lifted its hand to strike Naruto. "Naruto!" Saber yelled and was about to jump in to save her master on instinct when the blond man and red haired woman beat her to it and shielded the young boy with their bodies.
'The strength they h=must have to stop such a massive creature' the knight thought as she saw the two stop the foxes claw from hitting the boy after being impaled by it. "I said, that this was a father's duty" the man said once they had saved Naruto. "Then, all the more since I'm his mother" the woman said as she looked back at the blond. 'Their his parents' Saber thought as she watched.
"This is, the first time I've lost an argument" Kushina said through labored breaths. "Okay, I understand that you're determined to do this" Kushina told the man. "Thank you Kushina" the man said before putting some of his blood into his hand and going through some hand signs. "Summoning jutsu!" the blond called out as he summoned a toad next to him and his wife.
"Ghaahaa! Kyuubi!" the toad shouted once he got a look at the massive fox. "What?! Lord Fourth too! What's the meaning of this?!" the toad asked in a panic. "Gerotora, I'm going to give you the sealing formula's key. Take it immediately to Jiraya-sensei and store it away" the blond calmly said. "Sealing formula?" Saber questioned, 'Does he plan to put that thing inside of Naruto?' Saber wondered as she looked again at the fox.
"You have my word. I confirm the key is in my possession" Gerotora said as the scroll that made up the middle of his body rolled up. "And now I'm off" the toad said as he disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
"Kushina, my time is running out. I'm going to start the Eight Signed Seal. I want to put some of my chakra in Naruto too. It'll be quite a while before we can see him. Let's tell him what we want to say" the blond said. "Naruto, don't be picky. Eat lots and grow strong. Make sure you bathe every day and stay warm. Also don't stay up late. You need lots of sleep. And make friends. You don't need a lot of friends. Just a few, ones you can really, really trust" Kushina said as Saber watched, unable to do anything.
"I wasn't very good at it, but keep up with your studies and practice your ninjutsu hard. Remember that everyone has strengthens weaknesses. So don't get too depressed if you can't do something well. Respect your teachers and upperclassmen at the academy. Oh, and this is important. It's about the three prohibitions for a shinobi. Be extra careful about lending and borrowing money. Put your mission wages into your savings account. No alcohol until you're twenty. Too much can ruin your health, so drink in moderation" Kushina said as tears welled up in her eyes.
"Another prohibition is women. I'm a woman, so I don't know too much about this but, all you need to remember is that this world is made up of men and women. So it's only natural to take an interest in girls, but just don't get hooked on bad women. Find someone just like me" Kushina told her baby boy. "Speaking of the three prohibitions, be wary of Jiraya-sensei, you know" Kushina warned, getting a smile from the blond man behind her.
"Naruto, from now on, you're going to face lots of pain and hardship. Be true to yourself. Have a dream and have the confidence to make that dream come true! There's so much, oh, so much that I want to pass on to you. I wish I could stay with you longer. I love you" Kushina said as tears fell down her face. All the while Saber stood there watching with a sad expression.
"Minato, I'm sorry I used up your time" Kushina apologized. "Oh, it's okay" Minato told her. "Naruto, my message to you is, I guess it's the same as your nagging mother's" Minato said before completing the seal.
Naruto's house - Saber's room
Saber opened her eys to find herself in the futon she slept in the night before. 'What kind of life have you had?' Saber wondered about her master as she laid there.
Later
"Think Ero-sannin left with Fuji-nee?" Naruto asked as he brought breakfast over to the table. "Yes, lord Jiraya left with Taiga earlier this morning after Kuzuki called. He should be back around noon" Yugao said. "As long as he's not using it as an excuse to do 'research' I'm fine with it" Naruto said after sitting down.
"You haven't said anything all morning, is something on your mind, Saber?" Sakura asked the blond woman. "Just thinking of a dream I had. It's nothing to worry about" Saber told the girl. "You have a weird dream to huh?" Naruto asked his fellow blond. "You saw one of my memories then?" Saber said.
"Yeah, it was something about a sword and you wanting to be king. It jumped to you leading an army after that so I'm not sure about the details" Naruto told her. "What was yours about?" Naruto asked. "It was about your father sealing a giant fox into as a baby" Saber said, causing a moment of silence.
"You had a dream about the Fourths final moments?" Yugao asked. "Yes, he and a woman by the name of Kushina gave their lives to protect Naruto" Saber said as she watched her master. 'Did I say something wrong?' Saber thought as she looked at the silent blond. "Oh. Sorry, I usually don't hear anything about my parents. So I was just surprised is all" Naruto told her after he came out of his thoughts.
"Guess that means you saw the big fur-ball huh?!" Naruto asked, trying to get rid of the awkward feeling at the table. "Are you referring to the fox?" Saber asked. "Yeah. He's been trying to kill me and get out of the seal for most of my life. But we've come to an agreement recently, so everything's fine. He can still be a bastard though" Naruto told her.
"It's still weird to hear someone talk about a bijuu like that" Yugao commented before taking a bit of her food.
After Sakura and a Naruto clone left for school - Dojo
"You want to spar with me?" Saber asked after Naruto threw her a kendo sword. "Why not? We're going to be here all day, so we might as well get some training done" Naruto reasoned. "I didn't say I wouldn't spar with you. I was simply surprised that you asked" Saber told him as she readied her sword.
"You want to join in to Yugao?" Naruto asked as he looked over his shoulder at the woman. "I'll just watch for now" Yugao said as she sat on the sideline. "Suit yourself" Naruto said as he readied his own kendo sword. "Ready when you are" Naruto told the knight.
"Right!" Saber said as she came at the blond swinging her sword. 'Even with a kendo sword she's got some power behind her swing' Naruto thought as her swing pushed him back after he blocked. "What happened to the strength that stopped my sword the other night?" Saber asked. "I'd rather not break my wrist in a spar" Naruto said as he took another stance.
"You broke your wrist stopping my attack?" Saber asked as she blocked and diverted the blonds strikes. "I couldn't let Rin see me with a broken wrist could I? Besides, Kurama took care of healing it for me" Naruto said as he kept up his attack. "I see. It is true that your ability to heal is extraordinary. Is Kurama responsible for it?" Saber asked as she forced Naruto back with her own strikes.
"You can say that, but I'd still heal faster than most people without him" Naruto said before he closed his eyes and stood still. 'Using sage mode already huh? You must really want impress her' Yugao thought as she watched the orange marking of Naruto's sage mode form around his eyes. 'Orange marks? It seems you still have techniques I haven't yet seen' Saber thought as she tightened her grip on the kendo sword.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. I can't enter sage mode unless I'm completely still" Naruto said as he opened hi now yellow frog like eyes. "Sage mode?" Saber questioned. "It's when I use nature chakra" Naruto said before rushing over to Saber and swinging his sword at her. "His strength! It's increased greatly' Saber thought after blocking his strike.
"Now this should be a fair fight" Naruto said as he pulled his sword back to launch another volley of attacks. "We'll see how well this sage mode of yours does" Saber said as she two went to attack.
Some time later
"How long have they been going at it?" Jiraya asked as he walked into the dojo to see Naruto and Saber sparing. "It's been roughly an hour" Yugao told him. "He's been using sage mode, huh?" Jiraya commented as he looked at the clone gathering nature chakra near the wall. "Saber's strength overwhelms him if he doesn't" Yugao told the white haired man.
"Who's winning?" Jiraya asked the woman. "No one right now, but I can't tell if there trying to beat the other or if they're just going till they tier themselves out" Yugao told him.
"Are you still able to continue?" Saber asked through heavy breaths after her and Naruto pushed each other back. "Are you kidding? I could keep going all day" Naruto said through his own heavy breaths.
"How about you both give it a rest before you pass out" Jiraya said as he walked up to them. "I'm not going to pass out" Naruto told the man as dropped his stance. "Just listen to me and stop sparing with your girlfriend" Jiraya told him. "She's not my girlfriend!" Naruto told the man. "Girlfriend?" Saber asked.
"A girlfriend is a girl that goes out with a boy" Jiraya told her, only for her confused expression to remain. "He mean a romantic relationship" Yugao told her. "Romantic? I would prefer that you not insinuate such a relationship between us" Saber told Jiraya. "I was just making a joke. Now, how about we go inside and get something to eat?" Jiraya suggested.
"Fine. I guess we can take a break" Naruto reluctantly said. "Good! Go make use something to eat then!" Jiraya said as he patted the blond on the back. "Why can't you make it?!" Naruto asked the man. "Me, cook? Since when have I cooked the meals?" Jiraya asked. "Why you!" Naruto told the man. "I'll go make use something to eat" Yugao said as she stood up. "You two would start fighting over this if I don't" the purple haired woman said as she made her way to the house.
"I should go help. Come on Saber, let's head inside" Naruto said as he went to leave the dojo. "Right behind you" Saber said as she followed him, followed shortly by Jiraya.
