Fairy Tail's Six Paths Sage Jinchuuriki

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Fairy Tail. Naruto is owned by Masashi Kishimoto and Fairy Tail is owned by Hiro Mashima respectively. Certain elements of this story were inspired by other Naruto/Fairy Tail crossovers.

AN1: Dunno if people noticed last chapter, I had a blank AN1, well I use the same template for all my chapters and forgot to put something lol. If people are wondering no Naruto did not change anyone besides the Strauss siblings (briefly) in his past so everyone else strength is the same as canon. He didn't cause such huge changes yet. Mira's personality is this one is not quite the sweet motherly one from canon as she never actually lost Lissanna so her trauma wasn't so huge. So instead of a 180 like canon it is more like 145 (she still has hints of her Goth/Demon self).

Chapter 11 The Flute is no more

"Hmm so we can't force our way through since the wind would shred us to pieces." Erza remarked as the wind had not gone down at all even after Erigor had left.

"Hmmm Lucy did I forget to tell you something?" Happy asked as he paced back and forth.

"Why are you telling me now?!" Lucy screamed at the cat who shrugged.

"Lucy couldn't you summon one of your spirits outside the barrier and have them carry us past the barrier?" Natsu asked as everyone turned to Lucy who sighed.

"That's not how Celestial Spirit Magic works Natsu! For one thing I can only summon a spirit to where I am so they would be trapped in the barrier as well! Plus, even if they returned to the Celestial Spirit world none of us could join them as it would a huge violation of the rules to Celestial Spirit magic!" Lucy explained patiently as everyone looked down.

"Dammit is there nothing we can do?" Gray shouted in frustration resisting punching the wall after Naruto showed what would happen. He knew there would no way he could freeze the spell and he doubted Lucy or Erza would have anything powerful enough to destroy the barrier.

"Well I can~~" Naruto began to explain before he was cut off by an excited Happy.

"Lucy, I remembered what I had to tell you!" Happy said flying up to Lucy as everyone forgot about Naruto. "On our last mission you got a new Gold Key!" Happy exclaimed as Lucy looked confused.

"New Key?" Lucy asked not remembering any new key from when she joined Fairy Tail.

"Yeah this one! I forget to give it you but the last job guy decided to give it me to give to you." Happy exclaimed as Lucy sighed wishing he piped up earlier.

"This will help as Virgo can use Earth Magic to tunnel us out!" Lucy said in realization before Natsu eyes widened.

"Happy let's fly out pf here! If we don't catch Erigor first then Erza or Naruto will hog all the glory!" Natsu shouted as Happy picked him up.

"Aye Aye Sir!" Happy replied as they flew high and past the opening of the wind barrier and flew high speed towards Clover Town. The barrier only covered around the Station not above or below it so Happy flew safely above the gap. AN2:

"Come back you jerk!" Gray exclaimed angrily as Erza sighed.

"I guess it can't be helped as Happy can only carry one person at a time. Lucy can you please get your spirit to tunnel the rest of us out of here?" Erza asked Lucy who nodded.

"Alright! Open the Gate of the Maiden. Virgo!" Lucy shouted as she spun her new Gold key in her hands and it glowed with magic. There was a flash of light as a young, beautiful slender girl appeared with a dull calm expression. She had pink hair, blue eyes and a typical maid outfit with thigh high white stockings and peculiar shackles on both her wrists.

"I am at your command Lucy-sama." Virgo said calmly with a bow.

'That's not how I remember her but I will take what I can get.' Lucy thought to herself not willing to test fate and get the huge Gorilla woman from before. "Uh… Sama seems a bit formal.." Lucy said awkwardly to her new spirit as Virgo hummed in thought.

"If Lucy-hime alright with you?" Virgo asked as Lucy thought it over before nodding.

"Anyways can we finalize the contract later as we are a bit of a rush?" Lucy asked as Virgo nodded her head as Naruto looked intently at the new spirit.

"Cute." Naruto said simply as everyone looked oddly at him. Little did they know he was thinking of his former teammate Sakura.

"Oh? Who are you? Are Lucy-Hime boyfriend?" Virgo asked curiously as Gray smirked, Erza smiled, Lucy turned bright red and Naruto blushed and looked away.

"Its nothing like that!" Lucy declared as she glared at the smirking Gray. "He is Naruto Uzumaki and he one of my guild mates."

"Whatever you say Lucy-Hime. Nice to meet you Naruto-sama." Virgo said with a bow. In her head she thought 'Naruto Uzumaki-likely Lucy-Hime future boyfriend.' "Anyways I shall begin digging a hole out of here." Virgo declared as Lucy cheered.

"Guys seriously I can~~" Naruto tried to explain only to walk back abit when Lucy and Erza glared at him for interrupting. Gray just gave a look of surrender as Virgo spun and like a drill dug a giant hole underneath the Wind Barrier and onto the other side.

As everyone was walking through the tunnel Naruto thought sourly 'Sorry for offering to eat the wind as I am a Sky Devil Slayer but no, I guess I should shut up.' The Tailed beasts inside of him tried to be supportive except Kurama who laughed at him misfortune and Shukkaku who crackled he was whipped. AN2: Naruto also realized with the Wind Wall still up the Eisenwald members would be stuck inside instead of trying to escape once they woke up. The hole they walked through quickly disappeared once he left the tunnel which Naruto attributed to Earth magic.

Naruto was dragged from his wonderings when he saw they were back in the Magic mobile with Erza once again put on the SE plug on her arm. Gray resumed his spot-on top of the magic Mobile while the passed out Kage laid on the floor while Lucy patted the spot next to her on the seat.

"Hey why are we carrying that Kage guy with us?" Naruto asked as he hopped onto the seat next to Lucy.

"Once we beat Erigor we will make Kage tell us if Eisenwald has any plans." Erza said menacingly as Gray, Lucy and Naruto shuddered.

"Right…" Naruto said drily as Erza popped magic into the SE plug and the Magic Mobile drove off quickly towards Clover Town.

Naruto noticed Lucy looking nervously so he patted her on the shoulder so she turned to him with a worried look.

"I hope we can stop Erigor on time and save the guild Masters." Lucy said with uncertainty laced in her voice.

Naruto smiled and said "Look don't worry Natsu went on ahead and I believe he can beat Erigor. True he might not be as strong as Erza or me but I can tell he can tap into untapped power when he needs to.".

Seeing the confident look on Naruto's face Lucy smiled and said thankful. "Thanks, I needed that." Naruto blushed abit when he realized the close proximity as Erza and Gray smiled from his words. The next several minutes were spent racing across the canyon trying to catch up to Natsu and Erigor who both had quite a lead.

By the time they arrived at the bridge on the way to Clover Town Natsu stood over a burnt and defeated Erigor. Erza parked the Magic Mobile past where the defeated Dark Wizard laid and everyone piled out to congratulate the Fire Dragon Slayer. Naruto whistled an impressed tone as he noted that Natsu and Erigor magic powers were roughly equal. Gray tried to hide how impressed he was by claiming that Natsu took too long wheel Lucy marvelled at Natsu's strength.

"Look how hard you had to fight! If it was me, he would be frozen solid long ago!" Gray claimed butting heads with Natsu who seemed far more energetic then before.

"Well if you're so cocky why not test me out right now Ice Stripper!" Natsu taunted with fire coking out of his head as he glared at the ice wizard.

"That's enough boys." Erza scolded as both boys backed off in fright. "The important thing is Erigor was defeated so job well done Natsu." Erza parised as Natsu grinned.

"Remember our deal Erza! When we get back to Fairy Tail we fight!" Natsu said excitedly as Erza chuckled.

"I haven't forgotten. Now we just to grab Lullaby and this job is done." Erza said as they turned around only to hear a scream.

"Arrgh!" Lucy screamed as everyone turned to see Lucy with a black shadow at her throat.

"Lucy!" Everyone shouted as they were about to rush to save her until the shadow moved closer to her throat making everyone stop.

"I would stop if I were you Fairy Tail scum." Kage warned with a cocky smile hiding behind Lucy with one hand on her shoulder and one hand in front of her commanding his shadow magic.

"Kage." Erza growled with narrowed eyes as everyone reluctantly stayed still seeing the fear in Lucy eyes.

"That's some good wizards." Kage taunted before he raised a finger which caused another shadow to shoot out and grab the Lullaby flute that was lying next to Erigor's prone body.

"He grabbed Lullaby!" Gray shouted as Kage smirked.

"Why are you doing this, coward?" Naruto asked angrily as he resisted the urge to blast the dark wizard off the bridge knowing he might hit Lucy.

"Erigor and I might have come up with the plan together but he is a goner now so its up to me to finish our revenge." Kage claimed holding the flute reverently. "Now before you Fairy Tail flies try anything funny just remember I can cut Blondie throat quicker than anything you can throw at me." Kage taunted as he slowly walked towards the Magic Mobile with Lucy as his hostage.

"Lucy." Natsu shouted as he took a step forward but Kage was ready.

"Let's see how her blood looks shall we?" Kage asked as his shadow moved ready to cut her cheek until Naruto grabbed Natsu.

"You win we won't make a move." Naruto said in defeat as everyone reluctantly stood still making Kage stop his shadow and move with triumph. "Just remember this. Whatever happens to Lucy I will repay a thousand times more." Naruto promised with his eyes in slits making his teammates and Kage shudder in fear.

Kage went to the driver seat of the Magic Mobile still holding onto Lucy as a shield. "The look in your eyes makes me think you are not kidding but how fast are you blondie?" Kage asked sadistically as he used his shadow to push Lucy off the bridge as he drove full speed towards Clover town.

"Help!" Lucy screamed as she was falling high speed to the water below.

"Lucy!" Everyone shouted as they all tried to save her. Happy was too exhausted to fly anymore, Gray and Natsu wouldn't make it in time and Erza was unable to requip fast enough.

Faster than anyone however Naruto without regard for his own safety jumped off the bridge after Lucy and using Sky Devil Slayer Magic to accelerate his fall to catch up to Lucy.

Lucy closed her eyes expecting to a hard fall but instead she felt the air stop and she felt her body in something hard but warm. She kept her eyes closed in fear until she heard a warm voice.

"Its ok Lucy I got you." Naruto warmly as Lucy opened her eyes in surprise.

"Naruto you saved me." Lucy said in awe as tears starting forming in her eyes. She noticed she was in his arms with one of arms underneath her legs and the other on her waist in the bridal style. She noticed how warm and muscular Naruto's body felt against hers.

"Of course, I did silly." Naruto teased as they stood on top a pocket of Sky Devil Slayer magic and now that Lucy was aware, he slowly began an ascent upwards back to the bridge.

"Hmph if you sued my Sand you wouldn't need to use that magic of yours." Shukkaka grumbled from inside the seal.

"Hush and let Naruto and Lucy have their moment." Gyuki scolded as Shukkaka grunted but relented.

Lucy decided to just go for it and push her head into Naruto's shoulder and wrap her arms around his neck in a tight and warm embrace. Lucy blushed when she felt how safe and right it was to be in Naruto's arms but let herself enjoy the moment. While Naruto blushed when he felt Lucy very soft and curvy body press right against his but he didn't make a move to pull away. Unbeknownst to the other Lucy smelled Naruto's masculine scent while Naruto smelled Lucy sweet scent due to the proximity.

After a short while both blondes flew back until the bridge to their relieved teammates. However due to the essentially lovers embrace every member had blushes on their faces.

"Uh do you guys need a minute." Gray asked awkwardly as Lucy pulled her face out of Naruto's neck but Naruto kept a hold of Lucy.

"Shut up Gray." Naruto said in annoyance but the effect was ruined with how he still held onto Lucy.

"So I didn't know your magic allowed you to fly." Erza commented changing the subject as Naruto snorted.

"IF that Wannebe Shinigami can fly why wouldn't I be able to do Sky Devil Slayer Magic?" Naruto asked rhetorically.

"Anyways let's catch up to that Kage and stop Lullaby! Naruto should carry Lucy so we can move quicker." Erza suggested as neither Naruto or Lucy had a problem with that. Lucy did not even seem offended that it was implied she was slowing down the team.

Natsu, Gray and Erza ran full speed while Naruto carrying Lucy kept pace towards Clover Town. Happy was holding onto Natsu shoulder since he was still exhausted from using so much magic beforehand. After awhile they arrived near the Clover Town conference Hall where Naruto set down Lucy but kept her close in case of attack. They saw Kage with the flute near his lips while Makarov was waiting impatiently to play the song.

Before they could intervene, Master Bob came up to them and stopped them. He hit on and complimented Gray and Natsu much to their discomfort, called Erza mature but oddly left Naruto alone due to his close proximity to Lucy. They heard Makarov start talking before Kage could start playing.

"Nothing will change." Makarov suddenly said.

Kageyama's eyes widened.

"The weak will always be weak. But weakness is not evil, since human beings are weak to begin with."

Kageyama just continued to stare with wide eyes.

"Alone, we feel insecurity, that is why we form guilds. That's why we have comrades."

Naruto grinned, now seeing there was no need to intervene.

"We walk together in order to live a strong life. The clumsy ones will run into more walls than others, and it may also take them longer to get there."

Kageyama started trembling.

"If you believe in tomorrow and put yourself out there, you can naturally obtain your own strength. That's how you'll be able to smile and live strong."

Makarov grinned. "Without having to depend on such a flute, of course."

Kageyama sank to the ground on his knees, dropping the flute to the ground as he did. "I... I lose..."

Instantly the entire team came up the surprised Master with Erza saying how touched she was by banging Makarov to her armoured chest.

Naruto himself was impressed with the speech noting it was something the 3rd Hokage would've said to inspire the village. As everyone was relaxing on preventing a massacre a voice came from the flute.

"That will not do! I will eat souls one way or another today!" The voice declared as smoke enveloped the flute until it become a massive wooden Demon towering over the Hall and the surrounding mountains.

"What is that thing?" Lucy asked in shock and fear.

"That must be a demon from the books of Zeref." Goldmine said gravelly.

"How unfortunate legacies from that Era have awakened in ours." Master Bob sighed.

As the team prepared to fight besides Lucy and Happy Naruto stood up and put his hand out. "Wait, you guys have used quite a bit of magic this job so I will finish this one off." Naruto declared. As everyone was about to protest Makarov shook his head agreeing with Naruto as they reluctantly stood down.

"Just one human?!" Lullaby shouted in surprise. "Don't make me laugh! A thousand of you could not defeat one of demons!" Lullaby declared glaring at the human that dared to mock it.

"Well this one human managed to kill Cell the Demon so you must be even weaker than humans!" Naruto mocked as he had his left hand in front telling it to 'come on'.

"You die first!" Lullaby screamed as it threw a massive fist at Naruto intending to squish him. Everyone scurried out of the way buy Naruto calmly held his ground with Sky Devil Slayer Magic coating his hand not moving an inch.

"That all you got demon?" Naruto taunted with a cocky smile.

"Impossible he caught it with one hand!" someone from the crowd shouted. His own team was shell shocked at how powerful Naruto was.

"Who is this wizard Makky?" Master Bob asked a smug Makarov.

"My guild newest S-class Wizard Naruto Uzumaki." Makarov said with a smile.

"Naruto Uzumaki?! I thought it was just rumours started by the council." Goldmine said in shock as everyone turned back the frustrated demon.

"That was just a flute nothing else! Die!" Lullaby declared as it sprouted fire at the smirking blonde intending to roast him alive.

Natsu looked ready to eat the fire until Naruto coated his right hand with Sky Devil Slayer magic and punched the air in front of him. "Sky Devil Slayer Force Push." Naruto said calmly and much to everyone shock not only did the shockwave overpower the massive fire it even sent Lullaby itself flying!

"That's impossible!" Lucy and Gray shouted at the same time.

"That's incredible." Erza declared with wide eyes.

"He's stealing the spotlight!" Natsu whined.

'To finish this while he is in the air to prevent collateral damage.' Naruto thought as he summoned a bleu ball of magic in his hand except it had small shuriken like blades around it. "Sky Devil Slayer Wind Rasengan!" Naruto shouted as he threw the ball into Lullaby airborne self.

"There is no way a mere human could kill me! Impossible" Lullaby screamed as the ball hit it and expanded enveloping the demon with massive winds and explosion following. Lucy and Erza held onto their skirts while everyone braced themselves for a a few seconds until the explosion disappeared revealing the demon was gone.

"What kind of wizards are Fairy Tail? He defeated a demon in 2 attacks!" Somebody shouted from the crowd as Naruto's team cheered him on while he was modest about his win.

'Powerful and kind along with worrying about damages to property. Naruto really is worthy of S-class." Makarov thought to himself as he joined in on the celebrations inside the Conference Hall which was unscathed. Unbeknownst to anyone Naruto had snatched the broken flute while nobody was looking. Thus, ended the first of Fairy Tails newest team jobs,

AN2: not sure if its actually true but decided Natsu and Happy needed a way to beat them to Erigor.

AN: ok I was going to go him eating the wall but I realize this was when in canon Lucy gets Virgo key and I couldn't think of anywhere else to add that scene so I decided Naruto would get interrupted so he couldn't eat the wall.

AN: Ok for people asking why Naruto wasn't quick enough is because he hasn't actually marked any of his teammates with a Harashin marking (since it would be an invasion of their privacy) and Lucy was in danger so he backed off.
