Story Start! - Prolouge to New Arc

"Is this really even a real mission, because it seem like it would just be labour?" Naruto said as he tried to read the pieces of paper in his hands that Wendy gave to him. A few weeks of learning to read with Levy, and he was starting to get the hang of it. Sometimes his mind would revert back to his original language, and reading got harder, but most of the time he could ready easier words.

Mission Rank - A
Mission Location - Ruins of the Dark Lands
Client - The Council
Mission Descripton - A team of six mages minimum (in teams of two from three guilds) will meet up at the Ruins of the Dark Lands and prepare to dig up the ruins for any lost treasures. There may be Dark Mages located at this location.
Reward - Undecided

"It is an A-Rank easy mission, and we can meet new people as well." Wendy said shyly, and Naruto nodded with narrowed eyes. For some reason something felt off about this mission. He wasn't sure what, but if it took a minumum of six mages to complete then he didn't want to know why this was sent to Cait Shelter. Naruto looked at the list of guilds at the bottom that this mission had been sent to and accepted.

Fairy Tail
Phantom Lord
Lamia Scale
Blue Pegasus
Cait Shelter

"... Okay, lets say we do this. What if the other people going are assholes?" Naruto asked seriously, and Wendy pouted at him for his language. He rolled his eyes at that, because he had been cursing since he was six years old. He wasn't about to stop now, just because she wanted him to.

"It says that there are already people from Blue Pegasus and Fairy Tail going on this mission, and they are really nice guilds from what I have read. You like the people from Fairy Tail." Wendy tried to reason with him, and he sighed before grinning. If she really wanted to do this, than who as he to argue. It wasn't like this mission truly seemed all that bad if it was just digging for treasure.

"When do we meet this people for the mission?" Naruto asked, and Wendy thought at the date the mission was to be started by. She pushed her fingers together shyly, and avoided looking him right in the eye.

"Tomorrow, so we have a day to prepare." She said rather shyly, and Naruto's eye twiched once before he hung his head in defeat. Erza-sensei was going to be annoyed with him for skipping out of training, but since this was for a mission he was sure that she would understand. Chuckling in a way that would spell the end of him, he looked at Wendy and saw that she must have been planning this a few days ago because she already had a bag packed.

"At least this gives me the chance to practice my Requip some more." Naruto said as he held his hand out, and in a glow that lasted for 4 minutes and 34 seconds the the marker he used to practice on appear in his hand. Erza had started timing him, and she said that if it took more than 5 seconds to summon something then it wasn't ready for battle just yet. He had a LONG way to go apparently, because since starting out he had only been able to shave 3 seconds off his time. Right now it was only good for holding things that he wouldn't need during battle, and he had his Amol Selseira inside the space since he didn't use those in battle yet. It was safer to keep them their than anywhere else.

"See, everyone wins." Wendy said, but she didn't mention that what she had packed was mostly things that wouldn't be very useful in battle either. Of course, the only weapon she even owned was a single small dagger that he made her get. You couldn't always rely on magic to do everything for you, heck, Naruto prefered to fight without magic whenever possible! He only really used magic in battle when he wanted to fly, or stop himself from falling.

"What are the Ruins of the Dark Lands anyway?" Naruto asked, and Wendy looked down at this one for a moment.

"Nobody knows, this mission hasn't been finished for 100 years, and it is sent to all the guilds every twenty years. There has always been a barriers around the Ruins of the Dark Lands that keep humans out of it. It takes a lot of power from mages to break the barriers, but the deeper you go into the Ruins the harder the barriers get to break." Wendy said with a sigh. She knew that they wouldn't be completing this mission, but it would be fun to try. It was a 100 Year A class mission, because unlike a 100 Year S class it was an easy mission as long as you get passed the barriers. She didn't notice the grin that slowly formed on Naruto's face when she mentioned how hard the barrier would be to break.

"Who were these Dark Ones?" Naruto asked as he forced himself to snap out of it.

"Nobody knows, just that they existed before modern day magic. They even existed before the dragons came around, and that they were wiped out before the dragons came into power. Old tomes were found, but because they were in a strange language nobody could figure out their history." Wendy said with an awkward shrug, not being able to tell him very much was getting to her. She was pretty nervous about meeting new people as well, but she wouldn't let it show just yet. If nobody has finished this mission in over a 100 years, then they were't going to able to do it.

"Hahahaha!"

Naruto twitched when he heard Jason and Roubaul both laughing at him and Wendy, turning around he gave them both a deadly look that Erza had taught him. His upper face was shadowed so that his left eye was covered by shadows. His right eye glowed a through the darkness, and his aura became dark. The phantom image of a glaring tiger appeared behind him, and both men froze up when they were hit by his killing intent.

"What has you two laughing?" Naruto asked darkly, and they both looked away while whistling. Nirada chuckled at Jason from his spot at the bar eating, and the muscle twins were arm wrestling against each other with neither of them winning. Naruto nodded with a grin, before standing up and going over to take care of his packing. He loved messing with people, and it was so much fun to scare people that were older than you were.

"Don't you think you need to call Erza-san and tell her you won't be going to your lessons tomorrow?" Wendy asked just before he went out of the room, and with a blink he smacked his head and Ex-quiped his Communication Lacrima into his hands. This was actually a gift to him from Erza, so that they could contact each other when they needed to. Pushing his magic into it the orb glowed for a few minutes, before he saw Erza's face inside the orb looking at him.

"We need to make this quick Naruto-kun, but I won't be able to teach you tomorrow I have to drag a a group of idiots away from an S-Class mission. I was just about to call you that, but what do you need to say?" Erza asked quickly, trying to get this over with from her end. She still couldn't believe that Natsu was dumb enough to get Happy to steal a mission fromn the S-Class board.

"I was just calling to tell you that I am going to be on a mission with Wendy for awhile, so I won't be able to meet with you for a few days... maybe a week or two." Naruto told her with a slightly sorry smile. He didn't want to ditch on the first person that had ever truly tried to teach him.

"I understand, and good luck on your mission." Erza said, before she vanished from the orb. Naruto sighed in relief, before the ball in his hand glowed white for a few minutes and vanished into nothing. When he finished putting the things he was taking into his Pocket Dimension, he went back outisde of the guild and met up with Wendy. She was kindly waiting for him, with her bag over her shoulder. If the meeting was tomorrow, then they would get there a day earlier than they needed to.

"So what did Erza-san say?" Wendy asked with a tilt of her head.

"She will be busy tomorrow also, so the coast is clear! You ready to go?" Naruto asked while he started to float into the air with his wings out. Wendy jumped onto his back without much hesitation, even though she prefered it when he carried her with his arms around her waist. Sadly though, this method was for long distance flights. Naruto took it as the go ahead, and shot off into the sky.

First A-Rank mission was off to a good start!

Chapter End.
This is one of the big OA's for Naruto (Original Arc) and Wendy to help them grow closer, and make bonds with people from other guilds. The people that will be going on the mission with them are.
Fairy Tail - Mickey Chickentiger and Joey Fullborn (not OC's, they are really from Fairy Tail)
Blue Pegasus - Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki
Phantom Lord - Juvia Lockser
These are not up for arguement, and this arc will also give way to some minor story characters to make an appearance that they never really had in canon.
