"Freak..."

Atalanta was smaller, and she was a boy.

'I'm seeing his past... I must have fallen asleep.' Atalanta thought as she walked passed an old woman whispering something nasty about Naruto. She was seeing his memories in the form of a dream. She didn't have any control over her actions at all, she was just going through things from Naruto's point of view.

"Hey-"

"Wake up."

Atalanta woke up the instant Naruto told her to wake up, and she looked around to see that it was the middle of the night. She had fallen asleep from the sheer boredom of not having anything to do.

"... Master..."

"... Good, you're awake." Naruto sighed in relief. "... Apparently, there are only 3 servants left to summon now... Team Black is wanting us to attend a meeting... do you want to go?" Naruto asked Atalanta, who sat up from the couch. She rested her forehead against her knee and thought about it.

Naruto sat next to her on the couch.

"... Only 3 servants left... which servants haven't been summoned yet?"

"Assassin of White, Saber of White, and Archer of White. Seems all the Servants of Black have been summoned." Naruto only had what the letter told him to go off of. Atalanta thought about it, and she looked at her master with a critical eye for a moment. "... I think we should go." Naruto told her.

"... and why is that?"

"We don't have to reveal your identity, but we should at least know who we might have to work with. It would be good to have faces to names." Naruto stated to her.

"... I will go if you want, but I don't think it is smart to go in person." Atalanta was getting used to speaking more casually with him. She tried her hardest to think about what tactical advantage they could gain, but she was drawing a blank. "... is there not an easier way, that won't risk revealing us to future enemies?" Atalanta whispered.

The Servants of Black would become their enemies one day, regardless of what happened. If they defeated White, they would still have enemies in the form of their former allies. She didn't want her master to get attached to the others, and become unable to kill them if need be.

"... I want to go."

-At the Meeting-

"Yo!"

Naruto saw 6 other people waiting for him to show up, all standing or sitting down in different spots of the large house they were invited into. Atalanta was standing behind him with a cloak pulled over her shoulders to hide any visible traits she had, and underneath her cloak she was wearing her casual clothes.

Almost half of the masters were around his age, he noticed.

"Hello, it's nice to meet you. I actually saw you the other day when Miss Tsunade summoned you to the school. My name is Haruno Sakura, and I'm the Master of Berserker." A pink haired girl stated as she introduced a woman that was standing behind her. Who nodded her head, and stared towards Naruto's cheek marks with a very intense look.

"Master, it seems he needs medical attention, he has cuts on his face. I will perform surgery on them."

"No! Those are just scars or birthmarks!" Sakura seemed to be very against her servant doing that. "Sorry about her... she tried to amputate me a few times. She's a bit... Berserker." Sakura stated, and Naruto looked up and down her servant.

A beautiful woman.

"I am Might Guy! I am the Master of Rider, and this is my Rider! He has manifested in his youthful form! I work as a gym teacher at Konoha Gakuen, and this is Mandricardo! It is only fair you know his name, since we are on the same team!" Might Guy shouted out both his name, his servant's name. He didn't hesitate to give away such important details, and spoke with high levels of energy.

"... Hey..." Rider for his credit seemed to be used to Guy a little.

A man in chinese robes scoffed, and Naruto glanced over to him and his master, who were both standing apart from the others. Naruto made eye contact with the black haired boy, and instantly he knew he wasn't going to be getting along with him. The black haired boy just smirked at Naruto.

"He's Sasuke, Uchiha Sasuke... he can be a bit... he's the strong silent type. He has a Caster type servant... and this is my homeroom teacher. He's the guy readingt he book... Hatake Kakashi." Sakura introduced.

"Hey, Master of Saber... happy to work with you while it lasts." Kakashi just raised a finger off of his book to greet Naruto.

A pale, snake like, man laughed as behind him stood a black armor clad servant riding on top of a cursed looking horse, all of his servant's features were hidden from view. The servant seemed strong though, cursed and wicked, but strong.

"Kill... kill... kill my enemies."

A red haired boy was whispering and grabbing his own biceps, and he looked like he was struggling to hold back his urge to murder somebody. Behind him was a woman who was clad in white, a beautiful woman at that.

"I'm Assassin, Jing Ke..."

"Don't go near him, he's insane." Sakura stated as she whispered to Naruto, so that the red haired boy couldn't here her. "... and the snake guy is Orochimaru, a serial killer... be careful to not turn your back on him... rumors are... he likes young boys." Sakura whispered that as well.

Naruto walked over to the red haired boy.

The boy looked at Naruto, they were about the same age. Naruto just sat down next to the guy, and he grinned at him.

"Uzumaki Naruto, my servant is Archer. That's an awesome tattoo you got, all I have are these silly birthmarks." Naruto poked the teen's forehead where a love tattoo showed. The boy looked at Naruto and blinked a few times, unsure of what to make of the blond in front of him. Jinge Ke looked at Atalanta, and she extended a hand towards her.

Atalanta didn't take it.

"Rude."

"Master, this boy is dangerous... please back away from him."

"Dangerous? He doesn't seem dangerous to me. Name is Naruto, what is your name?" Naruto introduced himself again.

The boy continued to stare at Naruto.

"Since we're all gathered here... why don't we all share our wishes for the grail, and get to know each other. We should exchange contact information, so we can strategize." Orochimaru stood up. "... My wish for the grail is simple... immortality, that is all." Orochimaru didn't hesitate to share his dream with everyone.

Sakura raised her hand.

"I actually have a simple wish, I want to wish for all disease to be curable... or cured if possible!" Sakura didn't have a problem stating her wish either.

Sasuke smirked.

"... my wish is a secret."

"Well, my wish is for the author of my favorite book series to come back to life, and finish his work." Kakashi showed off the old book that he had. He didn't have any strong desires that he would wish for.

"YOSH! I wish that my body could train to surpass my limits, because I have reached them long ago!" Guy didn't seem to have much of an issue either. His servant behind him seemed to shy, and was embarrrassed by his master.

"... None."

"Well, my wish is simple! I want to wish for a world where no child will ever suffer the loneliness and bullying I grew up with! I want to make a world where everyone can strive for happiness!" Naruto proclaimed his wish to the room. He was actually given several looks from the others based on his wish, many who seemed to belittle his wish with their eyes. "... and I will make it happen one day, wish or no wish. If I can wish for it, great, if I can't, I will conquer the world nation by nation and make my wish a reality that way! So I don't have a wish, I have a goal I will make true!" Naruto wasted no time in asserting his wish as not just a wish, but a future he would strive for.

Atalanta just smiled when she heard his wish.

"... My name is Gaara." Gaara introduced himself to Naruto, he had a shine to his eyes as he looked at Naruto. "... you... you were lonely?" Gaara whispered to Naruto.

"Yep, always treated like an outcast with no family. So I've dedicated my life to saving others from the pain I went though. I'm a friend to everyone who wishes for salvation and redemption, and I'm a brother to those who are suffering from that hell." Naruto was grinning at Gaara.

Orochimaru cleared his throat.

"... Very well, since we all know each other. We should trade contact information, so we can discuss strategy."

"Meh, just give whatever message you want to send to me to the granny. Honestly, I'm happy to work together with all of you, but as far as my servant is concerned, our alliance is only temporary... so we're going to head out." Naruto started to walk off with Atalanta behind him. Atalanta had a strong glare when Gaara reached out for Naruto.

Gaara stared at Naruto's back as he walked away.

'... He shines... he's the sun... his eyes were... like mine, but he smiles... I want... I want his salvation... I want him to save me.' Gaara stood up and started to follow after Naruto. He glanced towards the others in the room who had avoided him like the plague, before he looked at his own servant who introduced herself and him to the others.

-Later-

"Gaara, why are you following my Master?" Atalanta asked when they got back to Fuyuki, and Gaara was still following Naruto.

"... Your dream... did you mean it?" Gaara ignored archer in favor of speaking to Naruto.

Naruto pointed to his heart.

"I said it, so I meant it."

"Gaara is-"

"Gaara is just like me, he was isolated and treated bad too... I totally get it! Well then Gaara, I'll be glad to have you as a friend, and may the best master win in the end! No hard feelings!" Naruto extended his hand to Gaara. Gaara nodded his head, and he grabbed Naruto's hand.

'... I want you to win... your wish... your wish is the only one worth granting.' Gaara couldn't say his words out loud.

"My Master believes in your cause as just... I myself... all I wish for is to drink fine wine from the holy grail... so I would not mind sacrificing my wish for a worthy goal." Jing ke bowed to Atalanta and Naruto, satisfied with just the fact that for the first time since she was summoned, her Master had felt happiness.

Gaara could tell.

Gaara could see somebody who suffered like him, and genuinely wanted to help others. She could sense how inspired he was getting.

"... You... would waste a wish?"

"I lived my life and got my death with only one regret, and fixing it with a wish would be wrong of me... as much as I wish it, unless I get it with my own hands it means nothing."

"I like you too... Archer, do you want to introduce yourself to her?" Naruto asked his servant.

"No."

"Sorry then, if Archer doesn't want you to know her identity... guess I won't push it." Naruto just laughed and scratched the back of his head. "... but if you guys really want to be allies, then I would be happy to trust you. I can tell, I know I can trust you Gaara, because you're just like me." Naruto told Gaara with a grin.

Gaara shook his head.

'I'm nothing like you... you live in the light, you are the sun... I was isolated and choose darkness... you are bright... you didn't even hesitate to try and befriend me.' Gaara didn't know how to say his words out loud, so he just stared at Naruto. The air was awkward from the staring, before Naruto's stomach growled.

"Wanna grab something to eat."

"I want a drink before the war starts!"

"Sounds like a plan then!"

Thus Team Black was fully summoned.
