DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN NARUTO OR SHINGEKI NO KYOJIN
AU: Hey again guys if you are seeing this, that means I've updated my story. I wanted to at least get 5 reviews but got 8 follows instead so I guess its good enough. Now, on to the story.
Past the veils of heat and smoke, past the desolate landscape and the bodies of the fallen, the slayer stood.
Blue eyes curious as the day he was born looked around the barren landscape. Bodies and blood lay on the ground, creating a brown and red sea that stretched across the horizon. Only in the middle stood a blonde boy covered in steaming blood, on him was a tattered white shirt, barely clinging to his body.
He looked at his hands to see he was wielding a rusty sword dripping with steaming blood. The boy pondered at his found, and inspected the weapon strangely.
"Blood?" the boy wondered before realization sunk in. "D-Did I kill all these people?"
"People?" a deep voice in his head announced, earning the boy's attention."Look around you boy these aren't people." The boy did as he was told and gasped as he saw his mistake. What lay on the landscape where definitely not humans. Though only baring slight traits, these creatures began to steam and simmer as their skin seemed to melt off their bones.
"Why am I seeing all this?" the boy questioned with a look of horror.
"Oh?" the voice started. "You don't know?"
The boy only held a confused look. "Know what?"
Before the voice could answer him the ground began to shake knocking the boy of his feet. The sky began to disappear as well as the landscape before him. The ground disappeared before him causing him to fall. He reached up to grab something, anything, that could stop his fall but to no avail he found nothing. He heard the rumbles of the voice shouting, trying to tell him something, but all he heard was his name.
"Naruto!"
Naruto woke up with a strangled gasp, body lurching up violently. Crystal blue eyes snapped open, wide with fear.
He shakily rose up his hand and inspected it. After he was sure there was no sign of blood he let out a long awaited sigh.
"It's just that dream again." He told himself with mild surprise. He had been getting weird dreams for awhile. Strange, whenever he had it he would never finish it. He had wanted to tell his guardians about the strange dreams he kept experiencing, but decided against it. Telling them that he had dreams of killing hordes of Titans would sound pretty crazy, especially from a 9 year old.
Tired of just sitting there, he shifted out of his bed and lumbered to his bathroom. After making his way toward the shower and turning on the water, Naruto ran a hand through his spiky locks of blond hair before stepping in.
He let out a pleased sigh as he felt the heat loosen his stiff body. He pressed his palms against the wall of the shower and let the hot liquid run down his lithe frame. He let his mind wander back to the dream he had many times experienced. It just seemed too real to him sometimes, he had even felt the hot blood splash against his body.
He shook his head and turned off the shower, He'll have to worry about the dream another time, now to focus on other things. More awake and alert he decided to get ready for the day. He put on an orange shirt and some black shorts to match, and later put on some black sandals as well. He threw on his backpack and left from his room to head downstairs.
Before he could even take the first step he could already smell food being cooked. He rushed downstairs to see at the kitchen a light blonde woman with a ponytail flipping a tasty looking pancake. She wore a brown shirt along with a grey skirt covered up with a dirty apron smudged with many stains acquired over the years.
"Good morning Naruto", she said as she smiled at him.
"Morning yourself", he groaned. He sat down on the kitchen table and laid his head down.
"What's wrong with you this morning", she asked with a bit of worry.
"Nothing really, I guess just had a bad night nothing to worry about" He said. He decided to steer the conversation away before she could ask any more questions. "Uh, where's Erich, shouldn't he be here?"
"Huh? Oh, seemed he had some important business with some officials from the survey corps, he should be back before you come back from school," She said as she put a plate of pancakes in front of him,before wiping her hands on her apron. "He really should just quit the survey corps; nothing will ever come out of it if he stays."
"Didn't you quit the force?" Naruto asked with mild interest.
She shrugged, "well not really, I was kind of fired. It had to be done, so you could be taken care of."
Naruto sat up from the table before pouring his dishes into the sink. He knew that she had been fired, quite some time ago actually, but wanted to confirm it. It was pretty obvious when she started staying home almost every week. It was more of his fault that she had been let go. When he was a child, he had been found by both Erich Fuchs as well as Elizabeth Fuchs in one of the many Titan infested forests. It was a miracle that he had survived, let alone had been found. Most of the squad found it suspicious that he was alone, less alone alive, but later dropped it when they realize they had suspicions of a baby.
Naruto Finished washing his plates, and headed for the door. All he knows now that he was grateful for them taking him in when they didn't have to, and if anything happened he was sure to protect his Guardians.
"Cya Liz," He called out as he opened the door. Oh before I forget, I'll be stopping at Eren's before coming home. It's been a while since I've seen him, since he's been traveling a lot."
"Ok," She called back. "Just be careful. I've heard that there has been some kidnapping lately so watch your back."
"Alright then" He said before closing the door behind him. "Pfft kidnappers", He scoffed as he walked down the streets of the Shiganshina District. Kidnappers were nothing to him he was pretty sure he was tough enough to beat one measly man up. He had done some training with Erich ever since he was 5 and has been learning the art of taekwondo ever since. He almost wished he could get kidnapped, nothing ever happened in this old district. He only had fun with some friends from school and that's about it.
"Hopefully things will get more interesting in this old district," He thought with a grin. "But first, I need to get to school" he thought hurriedly, before running down the street and disappearing out of sight.
I'm so happy that chapter is done. Well you guys finally met Naruto Fuchs, the young boy that came from the forest. He's last name means fox in German, and I thought it suited him pretty well. I'll be sure to Update pretty soon (I'm kind of busy). I'm still looking for someone to beta my story, but for now I'll be doing this by myself. Not to worry though, I assure you this story will get longer and better each chapter.
Ja ne.
