(?)
"Oh what the hell happened?" Naruto said and suddenly realized how soft his voice sounded
"Oh shut the hell up!" a familiar deep voice said getting Naruto's attention
"Holy shit" Naruto said seeing a small orange and black bi pedal cat with red eyes and black slits "Kurama" he asked needing confirmation
"Who else?" Kurama asked seeing that his host was now a young child and then realized he was taller than him...and that he was out of the seal and soon inspected his body "the hell happened to me?!" he yelled in shock
"I swear even after all these years your voice is still annoying" a female voice said getting the attention of Naruto and Kurama and when they looked to the owner of the voice they saw a blue flaming bi pedal cat on top of a young unconscious Will
"Matatabi?" Kurama asked the flaming cat needing some assurance that it was his sister and wondered how she was even here
"Yes Kurama it's me" Matatabi said lazily
"Where are we?" Naruto asked seeing the forest that surrounded them
"Earthland my young friend" a giant white and gold dragon said walking through the trees
"Abner?" Naruto asked wondering how his dragon friend was here "why are you here?" he asked curiously
"The nymph came to me and told me what world you would be going to she made an altermear of me and herself so we may teach you a power you will need in this world" he said to his young friend
"And what power is that" Naruto asked carefully
"The art of dragon slayer magic" Abner said making Naruto curious "it is an art where a dragon teaches a person it's element allowing the person to eat that element into their body restoring their power and making them stronger" he explained
"That sounds amazing" Naruto said in awe "wait where's the nymph?" he asked looking around for the nymph
"Right here" Xin Jing said as she just arrived in her dragon form which was pink"and we will begin your training immediately" she said grabbing Will with her tail
"That's all said and good but why the fuck am I a cat?!" Kurama yelled angrily
"What's wrong with being a cat?!" Matatabi said angrily glaring at her brother
"Will you both shut the hell up?!" Will said waking up with a headache then notices the changes to her body "the hell happened?" she asked wondering where all her good looks went
"This'll be an interesting few years" Abner said as he could tell things would get complicated
"Indeed" Xin Jing said as she knew she would enjoy it
(years later)
"What the fuck?" Naruto said waking up and saw that it was just him, Will, Kurama, and Matatabi 'the fuck did you go' he thought wondering where Abner and Xin Jing went
(few days later)
'What is that?' Makarov asked himself as he felt four A-class magic signatures one of which felt like it was almost a low S-class
(few minutes later)
'Oh my' Makarov said as he saw a couple dozen bandits beaten and bruised by two children who looked no older than eight years old and two bi pedal cats
"Help please take me to jail please I beg you!" a bandit begged Makarov before falling unconscious
'The power these four posses is baphaling' Makarov thought as anyone this young having that much power was unheard of "excuse me young ones" he said revealing himself to the group of four "why are you out here all alone?" he asked them curiously
"We have each other" Naruto said casually
"The fuck is it to you, you old miget dwarf?" Kurama asked surprising Makarov that he could talk
"Behave" Will said as Kurama acted very rashly around strangers
"What do you want from us old man?" Matatabi asked curiously
"Well I'm a guild master of Fairy Tail and I like to keep an eye out for children with magic as they are often targets for bandits and dark guilds or even slavers" Makarov said disgusted on how some people saw children as a means to an end "would you like to join Fairy Tail young ones?" he asked them
"You guys wanna do this?" Naruto asked wanting the others opinions
"Fuck it" Kurama said seeing no better options
"I believe it would best" Matatabi said thinking joining a guild would be the smartest move
"I'm in" Will said thinking it would be fun
"Alright old man we'll join" Naruto said with a smile which Makarov returned in kind
"Splendid now can you tell me about yourselves and what magic you use?" Makarov asked curiously
"Me and her can use wind and fire and sprout wings" Kurama said as he and Matatabi had been training to see if they could do anything further with their unique bodies
"Me and her are dragon slayers" Naruto said surprising Makarov "my element is light while her's is lightning" he said making Makarov look at Will in even further shock
"I'm also adept at script, teleportation, elemental magic, and gravity magic" he said even though he no longer possessed the rinnegan he kept it's elemental and gravity abilities 'glad to still have all my skills' he thought as it was easy to transfer his knowledge of chakra skills over to magic but to have his body adjust to the use of magic instead of chakra which he and Will no longer possessed
"Were you raised by dragons?" Makarov asked curiously as he had never heard of two dragon lacrimas seeing as how his grandson possed one already
"Yeah how'd you know?" Naruto asked as he knew of the two types of dragon slayers the first generation being the ones trained by dragons and the second receiving a lacrima that gave a person the likeness of a dragon slayer 'first generation is better anyway' he thought as second generation dragon slayers didn't have the same advantages as the first as their magic wouldn't be as harmful or as effective in a fight against a dragon or gain any strength if they consumed the element they have only refill their reserved
"Who cares let's go I'm starving" Kurama said walking away
(later)
"I love this place" Kurama said as they just walked in and saw a brawl going on
'Of course he would' the three members of his group thought knowing how violent he could be
"All of you brats shut the hell up we have new members to welcome!" Makarov yelled causing everyone to shut up
"Great more brats" a blonde teen said getting Will's attention
"You got something to say tough guy say it my face" Will said glaring at blonde
"Laxus behave" Makarov said to his grandson
"Looks like the old man saved you squirt" Laxus said arrogantly
"Don't you have that backwards?" Will said as electricity built up around her
"You're way too early to think you can challenge me" Laxus said arrogantly
"Prove it scarface" Will said not backing down
"I like her" Mirajane said loving that someone was sticking it to Laxus
Laxus grew impatient and sent a small blast of lightning at Will only for her to eat it and let out a small burp
Everyone is stunned by this new development but none more than Natsu Dragneel the fire dragon slayer
"No way" Gray said in disbelief
"Is she?" Cana said thinking out loud
"My turn jackass lightning dragon roar!" Will yelled as she fired a torrent of lightning at a stunned Laxus sending him flying into the wall
Laxus immediately got up charging his body full of lightning and was about to get serious till they were interrupted
"Stand down" Makarov said seriously not wanting for this fight to draw out
"This isn't over" Laxus said to Will before walking away
"I'm so scared sparky come back and fight when your balls finally drop" Will said not at all afraid of Laxus
Mirajane falls to the ground holding her gut as she laughed so hard tears were coming down her eyes
"Well that was boring" Will said about to walk back to her group until a little boy with spiky salmon colored hair blocked her path and started asking her questions a mile a minute "hey pinky that guy over there is a dragon slayer he'll answer your questions" she said picking Natsu up and throwing him at Naruto
"Hey red c'mere" Mirajane said calling Will over to her and her siblings
As Will was being acquainted with the Strauss siblings Naruto was getting to know Natsu and Happy
"Sorry Natsu but I have zero clue where our dragon's went" Naruto said to the young fire dragon slayer "but hey I can teach you a few things if you'd like" he offered as he could tell the little boy was a brawler always eager to fight
'I swear if he wasn't so young I'd kill him' Kurama thought as Happy was bothering him with all the questions he had been asking while Matatabi watched the scene in amusement
"You ok big bro?" Happy said to Kurama who then gained multiple tick marks while Matatabi began laughing hysterically
"Feel free to call me big sister happy" Matatabi said liking the young kitten but was soon interrupted from her as she saw Natsu trying to eat her flames from her flaming body "the hell is wrong with you?!" she yelled angrily not even sure what would happen if her flames were taken from her
"Those tasted great!" Natsu said jumping on and off the walls as he was able to get a taste of Matatabi's flames and was now hyped up like a kid on caffeine
'Note to self stay away from that one' Matatabi said to herself as she was worried she'd be eaten
"Dude why are you almost naked?" Naruto asked Gray who was in just his underwear
"Where'd they go this time?" Gray said frantically looking for his clothes
"Seriously Gray" Cana said not really annoyed seeing as this was as common as breathing for the ice wizard "so what magic do you use?" she asked curiously
"Light dragon slayer magic" Naruto said making them curious as to how he ate light "I can essentially eat the light from any light source the sun, a torch, a flashlight basically anything that can produce light" he said explaining how and what he could eat
"Could he eat fairy law?" Macao asked Makarov in a whisper
Makarov spit up out the booze he had in his mouth at that thought 'if he ate fairy law if I were to ever cast it' he thought thinking Naruto could possibly double or triple his power with such an intense and powerful light spell
Suddenly the doors to the guild burst open causing many to hide as a redheaded girl entered the guild
"Laxus just told me a new member had attacked him who was it?" Erza said angrily
"The bitch attacked me first!" Will said angrily to her fellow redhead
"This'll be fun to watch" Mirajane said as she was curious to who would win her rival or the newest member
"Stand down" Erza said releasing her own magic
"Bring it on" Will said releasing more of her lightning
"Requip" Erza said summoning a spear
'That would be useful for storing shuriken and kunai' Naruto thought as he had been trying to develop storage seals with script magic but it was proving quite the challenge
"Last chance to back down" Will said as she never backed down from a fight and seeing Erza's determined glare was all she needed as an answer "bring it on" she said as the to rush each other
'That spear was made to fight electrical attacks' Naruto thought seeing the weapon generate lightning and negate some of the power in Will's attacks 'this fight is gonna go to the person who wants it more' he thought seeing the determined looks in both the redheads eyes
'She's good' Erza thought as she had fought Natsu enough times to adjust to this manner of fighting 'but she's more skilled more precise' she thought noticing the major differences between Will's fighting style and Natsu's
'Damn it's her spear' Will thought in realization as she noticed her attacks didn't seem to be doing as much damage as she expected her attacks to do 'time to use an attack she can't weaken' she thought focusing her magic through her body "dragon slayer secret art: lightning dragon rush" she said as her hair began to rise and sparks appeared around her body
'Oh great she going Tsunade jr' Naruto thought as the spell Will used was to amplify all of her body's physical capabilities drastically
Erza instinctually ducked dodging an extremely strong and fast punch feeling the force of the punch even though she dodged it 'what was that spell?' she thought trying to understand what it did
'I only have ten seconds better make it count' Will thought as she couldn't use this spell to its fullest due to her underdeveloped body and it put her on a severely short time limit with the spell
'I need to defend myself' Erza thought summoning a circular shield
"Screw your shield" Will said as she shot her fist directly at the shield's center shattering it surprising everyone who didn't know Will
'Wow she's incredible' everyone thought impressed by how powerful she was for someone her age
"Time to end this" Will said as her mental clock told her she had five seconds and charged Erza punching her armored chest sending her flying taking down an entire wall
"Oh no there's another one" Makarov said sadly thinking about all the damages he'd have to pay for
(later)
"So where would you like your guild marks and what color?" Makarov asked the group of four
"Orange with a white outline" Naruto said exposing his right shoulder
"Red please" Will said exposing her left shoulder
"Yellow and teal" Matatabi said exposing her back
"Black" Kurama said also exposing his back
"Welcome to the guild" Makarov said everyone cheering in excitement
(later)
"Thanks for the ice stripper" Will said to Gray as he made her for her hand as she was sure she sprained it from hitting Erza's chest plate so hard
Gray would've said something if not for the fact that Will had proven she was stronger than Erza, he soon heard some giggles coming from Natsu, Happy, and Cana then sent each of them a glare
"Here" Erza said handing Will a roll of bandages
"Thanks" Will said in appreciation and wondered how she would apply the bandages
"Would you like a hand?" Erza asked as Will handed back the bandages and Erza held her hand and wrapped the bandages around her hand "so where are you staying?" she asked trying to make conversation having no problems with her defeat
"I really don't have a place right now but-" Will was saying till she was interrupted
"Unexceptable! you will stay with me at fairy hills" Erza said confidently
'Oh this'll be fun' Naruto thought thinking of what would happen with those two living together and wondered how it'd be for him as he'd be living with Natsu and Happy which made Kurama burst into tears
(few months later)
"C'mon sis don't be such a buzzkill" Will said to Erza as they had really bonded into sisters after the time they spent together
"No I shall accompany you on this mission" Erza said stubbornly
"Talk about helicopter parent" Mirajane said laughing at the sisters interaction
"You're one to talk" Lisanna said as Mirajane went out of her way to make sure everything she did wasn't to dangerous and was very protective of her
That moment the guild doors opened suddenly revealing Naruto and an unconscious Natsu who looked like absolute hell
"The hell happened to him?" Mirajane asked curiously as she didn't expect them to arrive with Natsu in such a state
"Training" Naruto said as he handed Natsu to Lisanna who fawned over him
"The hell kinda training does this?" Mirajane asked as something about Naruto drew her to him
"The kind where one of us is left standing" Naruto said as Natsu wanted to have a full on fight with Naruto who agreed to it and much to the light dragon slayer's surprise Natsu managed to do very well for his age
"At least your's put up a fight" Kurama said as Happy lost in two seconds of their fight
"Gotta give the little guy credit he keeps coming back for more" Naruto said as he respected Happy's determination after each loss he suffered
"You aren't being too hard on him right?" Lisanna said seriously to Kurama glaring at the former fox demon
Kurama knew it was not wise to anger the youngest Strauss as she was apparently Happy's 'mother' and he wasn't about to upset her if he could avoid it
"Nah Kurama may act tough but he likes the little guy" Naruto said coming to his friends aid
"That's good" Lisanna said gaining an innocent smile
"I swear are we a hundred percent sure that Mirajane is the demon of that family and not Lisanna?" Kurama asked as the little girl was terrifying when angered
An alarm soon blared through the whole city of magnolia as the town shifted
"Gildarts!" Natsu said waking up with a burst of energy
"He's back already?" Makarov asked himself out loud
Naruto was confused to who Gildarts was and noticed everyone in the guild was cheering except Cana who looked saddened, he immediately walked over to her "are you ok Cana?" he asked her wondering if he could help
Cana just bit her lip before putting on a fake smile "it's nothing Naruto" she said a little touched he was about her
"I'm here whenever you need to talk Cana and whatever it is I won't tell a soul" Naruto said as he knew a look of pain when he saw it and Cana seemed to know something that made it so she felt that pain
"Not even Will?" Cana asked as she knew how close they were
"Of course" Naruto said crossing his heart making her laugh a little
(later)
Naruto was currently in deep thought as he and the others watched Natsu get his ass handed to him by Gildarts 'hard not to like this guy when he treats these guys like his own kids' he thought as Cana told him about her being Gildarts daughter
"Hey kid you wanna have a go?" Gildarts asked Naruto wanting to see what he was capable of
"Sure I got five minutes" Naruto said knowing he had almost little to no chance of winning as his power reached maybe a little over ten percent of Gildarts power
"Show me what you got" Gildarts said as Naruto charged straight at him 'just like Natsu' he thought ready to just slap him away and when he tried Naruto dodged and punched him right in his face
All the children in the group were in shock as no one in the guild had been able to land a solid hit on Fairy Tail's ace ever
"Not bad kid" Gildarts said as he sent a large amount of crash magic at Naruto sending him back "been a long time since anyone was able to give me a good hit to the face" he said knowing that his eye would bruise
"That was awesome" Natsu said running up to Naruto
"Yeah man that was incredible" Gray said unaware he was in his underwear
"You can never wash that hand again" Mirajane said as she was in awe he punched Gildarts
"Truly remarkable" Erza said as she was speechless
"You can say that again" Will said before quickly realizing who she said that to "that was a metaphor Erza" she said as her sister took everything seriously
"Thanks but I got a lot more training to do" Naruto said getting up
"I want more training" Natsu asked Naruto
"Done let's go" Naruto said as they were about to walk away
"Wait I want training too" Gray said quickly approaching Naruto as he didn't want his rival to one up him
"Hell I'm game" Mirajane said as she wanted to get stronger and Naruto was clearly the strongest out of all of them
"I am as well" Erza said not wanting to be left out
"Let's go" Will said as they all went to the woods
"Hey Cana you coming?" Naruto said surprising the card magic user who walked up to him "listen I may not agree with you not telling Gildarts, but I will help you become S-class"
(six years later)
"Didn't tell him?" Naruto asked Cana as Gildarts had just left on a SSS-class mission
"No" Cana said as she chickened out the last minute
"You'll get him next time" Naruto said as he could understand why she was so nervous to tell him
"Wanna go watch Erza kick Natsu and Gray's asses?" Naruto asked her as that was always entertaining
"Sure let's go" Cana said with a smirk
"Also you'll win this year's S-class trial" Naruto said as he knew Cana lost the first two to Laxus and Mira who are now S-class along with Erza, Will, and the guilds most mysterious member Mystogan
(two years later)
"Something's wrong" Naruto said to Natsu who had just turned S-class recently while Cana made S-class last year, they were currently at a restaurant and a cup Naruto hadn't touched suddenly cracked
"What?" Natsu said with food stuffed in his mouth
"Master has anyone gone on any dangerous mission recently?" Naruto asked through a communication lacrima
"Yes Mirajane and her siblings went on an S-class mission to stop a demon" Makarov said as he had been getting a dark feeling since they left
"Natsu we're leaving" Naruto said placing jewels on the table and grabbed onto Natsu and teleported in a white flash
(with the Strauss family)
Time slowed down for Mirajane as she saw her taken over brother swipe his fist in the direction of her little sister who all but smiled at their brother all she could do was quickly close her eyes and heard Elfman's fist collide and when she opened her eyes she saw Naruto stopping Elfman's fist while Natsu had Lisanna in his arms holding her protectively
"Sorry to do this to you Elfman" Naruto said as his upper arm began to glow "light dragon shining fist" he said sending the transformed Elfman flying "are you alright?" he asked Mirajane quickly going to her side
"How are you here?" Mirajane asked Naruto curiously still in shock
"I had a feeling someone was in trouble and used the bracelet I gave you to teleport here" Naruto said as he gave Mirajane a bracelet with a newly developed hiraishin formula to work exactly like the one which used chakra
Mirajane pulled him into a hug as tears came down her face
'This has to be a very stressful situation for her' Naruto said as he hugged her back, then looked toward the transformed Elfman who was getting back up "sorry Elfman dragon slayer secret art: shining lotus cosmic flare" he said as he sent a vortex of light that grew brighter as it swirled and when it hit Elfman it lit up the area around them enveloping it in light and when it died down it revealed a half naked bruised Elfman
(a week later)
"You sure about this" Naruto asked as Mirajane had finally left the infirmary and decided to step back from missions and underwent a total makeover
"Yeah" Mirajane said a little lost on what to do now
"Well can you at least train so if you ever need to use your magic again you can use it" Naruto said as magic was like a muscle that if not used for a while
"I will" Mirajane said with a smile as she didn't want to lose her strength "where's Lisanna?" she asked curious as to how her little sister was doing
"Oh she and Natsu got married six days ago" Naruto said as he was just as surprised as Mirajane was now, after the two came back to the guild and talked about either of them losing the other they decided they wanted to be closer to each other than ever and to everyone's surprise Natsu proposed to Lisanna and they married and left for their honeymoon that day
"I'll kill him!" Mirajane yelled angrily for a magnitude of reasons
At that moment Natsu and Lisanna came through the guild doors and Mirajane soon tackled him
"I'll kill you!" Mirajane said bashing Natsu's head into the floor
'Good to see not much has changed' Naruto said as he was glad Mirajane hadn't completely changed
(a year later)
'This mission really caught my attention wonder if it'll sate my curiosity' Naruto thought as a town had been experiencing long never ending showers for weeks
'Has to be a magic totem or as unlikely as it seems a person' he thought as it would require a considerable amount of magic to keep raining for so long and the only person he knew who could do this was Nagato as he had a jutsu that made it rain in his village for a long time
'It'll be extremely difficult with the magic all around me' he thought as the magic in the rain prevented him from finding the source of the magic
(later)
'Maybe instead of sensing it I can go to the center of the storm' Naruto thought as the storm might be surrounding the thing that's causing it
After walking in the area of what he guessed was the center he saw nothing but a woman in tears 'is she the reason for all this rain?' he thought as the rain's magic seemed similar to her from what he could guess and when he got closer he noticed she had tears coming down her face "are you ok" he asked her
"Go away" the woman said the rain becoming harder
'She's definitely is the cause' Naruto thought a little impressed that she seemed to be doing this unconsciously and seem to have no say if it rained or not "listen miss all I wanna do is help you" he said knowing what it was like to have an uncontrollable power
"How?, how can you help me? I'm cursed!" the woman yelled as the rain and even the wind became erratic
"I know how it is to feel cursed to feel like you have no control over this power you didn't ask for and didn't want and too feel so alone it's hurts inside" Naruto said as that was what it was like when he had Kurama sealed in him
"Really?" The woman asked as the rain seemed to calm down
"Yes let me help you" Naruto said extending his hand to her "I'm Naruto Namikaze" he said with a smile
"Juvia Lockser" She said gaining a blush as she examined Naruto's face as the rain finally stopped
(a week later)
"The guy who broke up with you is an idiot" Naruto said as he and Juvia were outside enjoying the sun's rays
"Thank you master" Juvia said hugging his arm lovingly
"You can call me Naruto" Naruto said as Juvia fell for him and he enjoyed her company and decided to date her
"If not master I shall call you beloved" Juvia said with hearts in her eyes "and I wish to learn more master I've seen you fight please teach me" she asked practically begging
"Sure I'll teach you how to be a ninja" Naruto said as it would be nice to teach another person how to be a ninja, "but you have to do one thing join Fairy Tail" he said wanting Juvia to be part of the Fairy Tail family
(two years later)
"How is it you get sick but I don't?" Naruto said wearing similar clothing compared to Natsu except unlike Natus's vest his was white with an orange outline and had a left sleeve not having a right sleeve as it concealed his guild mark he wore proudly but also an orange sash tied around his black pants, they had just arrived at the town they were heading to with Natsu on the floor looking like he was poisoned
"I don't know you lucky bastard" Natsu said angrily as he was jealous that Naruto was a dragon slayer who didn't get motion sickness as he slowly got up and slowly regained his strength
"Let's go" Naruto said as he wondered how Natsu believed Igneel was in this town 'has to be someone using Natsu's alias' he thought as Natsu's alias was Salamander and to hear that a 'Salamander' was spotted in Haragan made him come to this realization
"Why the fuck did we have to come here?" Kurama asked as he knew he and Happy were always with their partners for missions but it seemed over kill for them to come along chasing a rumor
"Just because" Naruto said as he knew Kurama was impatient and couldn't keep his mouth shut
As the four of them walked through town they were greeted by a crowd of women fawning over a man who was claiming his name was Salamander
'The magic this guy is using is charm magic' Naruto thought as he sensed the magic from the ring and saw how all the girls were drawn to him 'this guy looks familiar' he thought as he believed he had seen or heard the man's description just couldn't remember where
"Don't worry ladies I'll give you all autographs" Salamander said signing the pictures of him and even signed some faces and even a few busts
"Don't" Naruto said to Natsu as he knew he was gonna drag up Igneel
"But what if he knows something about Igneel?" Natsu said complaining
"I guarantee he doesn't" Naruto said positive the man never interacted with a dragon before
"Here you are young men" Salamander said giving them both a signed picture of himself
"We're good" Natsu said getting gasps from the girls
'Idiot' Naruto thought as he knew it was never a good idea to piss off a group of fangirls, he learned that a long time ago and then noticed a blonde girl that wasn't fully caught in the charm magic 'it takes a strong will to resist that magic' he thought as the illegal charm magic invaded through most of the senses drawing people of the opposite sex to them, he snapped his fingers a few times causing the blonde to snap out of her transe
"Oh thank you hi my names Lucy" she said introducing herself, she appeared to be Naruto's age having an I-cup bust a very curvy body and a nice smooth ass
"Naruto" he said introducing himself
"Thanks for breaking me out of that spell" Lucy said in appreciation
"No problem" Naruto said as he hated guys like 'Salamander'
"If there's anyway I can repay you?" Lucy said as she felt like she owed him
"Nah it's cool be careful around that guy if he dumb enough to use illegal magic imagine what else he's capable of" Naruto said as he couldn't just attack the man in the middle of town on suspect alone
"Is your friend alright?" Lucy asked seeing the pink haired dragon slayer lying on the ground freshly beaten
"Yeah he's to stupid to let this stop him" Naruto said as Natsu could take a lot of punishment
"Also he's taken worse beatings from his sister in law" Happy said as Mirajane would beat Natsu if she felt he did something wrong with her sister
"He's married?" Lucy asked in surprise
"Surprisingly yes" Naruto said as it amazed everyone even to this day that he had the balls to ask Lisanna to marry him "anyway, this idiot is gonna want to look around so I guess we'll see you later" he said walking to Natsu
"No we're eating you dragged us here we're hungry let's get some food" Kurama said as he wasn't gonna deal with this idiocy
"Fine Lucy wanna join us?" Naruto asked her being polite
"Sure" Lucy said feeling hungry herself
(later)
"Oh my god" Lucy said as she watched Naruto, Natsu, and Kurama ate a massive amount of food as if they were breathing
"They're basically bottomless pits" Happy said nibbling and tearing up his fish
"So what are you doing in this town" Naruto asked Lucy as he figured she was an up and coming mage
"I was looking for celestial gate keys" Lucy said as she wanted to be a celestial mage like her mother
'Celestial magic' Naruto said a little surprised as he hadn't seen that magic in a long time and noticed her golden keys 'zodiac keys even rarer' he thought as he had met the zodiac spirits a long time ago
(flashback a few years ago)
"C'mon you idiot" Naruto said as he was on a mission he finished with Loki and as they were returning home to the guild Loki suddenly collapsed in pain and when he examined Loki's body and his magic he learned that Loki was a celestial spirit
"You can't tell anyone" Loki said painfully getting up
"You're Leo the lion aren't you?" Naruto asked already knowing the answer as he knew of the zodiac signs and knew there might've been a few spirits who were similar in appearance to humans like the zodiac spirits, but only a zodiac spirit could stay out of the celestial realm for so long as he knew Loki for a little over three years
"Yeah I am" Loki said in admittance
"Either you have a death wish or you were banished" Naruto said as did some research on celestial magic as he had used some of the principles based on the magic to recreate his hiraishin and summoning and in his studies he discovered that there was a king of the celestial realm
"A little bit of both actually" Loki said remembering the last owner of his key and gave Naruto a brief history on what happened to get him in this situation
"Hold still" Naruto said focusing magic in his hand and placed it on Loki "summoning" he said causing a golden brilliant light to appear
"What are?" Loki said not knowing what to say and soon saw ten of the other zodiacs appear but not Capricorn 'how's he doing this without celestial keys?' he thought baffled by what he was seeing but even more surprised when the spirit king himself showed
"Who are you?" the Spirit King asked Naruto
"Naruto Namikaze light dragon slayer and quite possibly the guy who's gonna kick your ass" Naruto said getting looks of surprise from the eleven zodiacs
"Oh and why may I ask would you make such a bold claim?" the Spirit King asked curious as to why Naruto seemed so upset
"Because my friend Loki or Leo whatever his name is is dying and I want you to open the damn gate and let him return to the celestial realm" Naruto said not willing to sit around waiting as his friend suffered
"Because of his actions a human died" the Spirit King said firmly
"Oh please Karen abused the power she had as a celestial mage and that caused her death I'm not gonna sit here and let you punish a man who wouldn't let his best friend be abused" Naruto said as he would've done the same thing in Loki's position
"But the rules" the Spirit King was saying till Naruto interrupted him
"Screw the damn rules if it means your own celestial beings that you rule are being abused and they can't do anything to defend themselves so you have a choice let Loki back in or this'll get ugly" Naruto said his magic aura becoming very visible
'This child is truly remarkable for one his age and his spirit is nothing to scoff at' the Spirit King thought looking at Naruto "you have impressed me greatly young man and after some thought I have decided to agree to your bold request" he said making all the zodiac spirits present gain a look of surprise
"Thanks" Naruto said calming himself down then looked to Loki "see you soon buddy" he said seeing looking begin to fade in a bright light
As Loki faded he felt something in his palm and when he looked he saw that it was his key "Naruto here I want you to have this" he said wanting Naruto to have his key "and please even if you don't want to keep it give it to someone who won't abuse it" he asked his friend
"I swear on my life Loki and don't take your sweet time coming back" Naruto said taking his key
"Young man may I ask how it was that you were able to bring us here?" the Spirit King asked as he knew most of the spirits here had individual owners who were still alive
"I have a technique that allows me to summon people or animals on things if I have an energy source to lock onto" Naruto said as he had reworked his summoning but never truly had something to test it on till Loki
"Interesting" the Spirit King said impressed by the technique as it was similar in nature to celestial keys but it only required his hand and focus and could summon multiple instead of just one "child I would like to make a pact with you" he said getting the ten remaining zodiacs to stare at him in bewilderment
"Sure" Naruto said as he thought it was similar to the toads
"Raise your dominant hand" the Spirit King said and when Naruto did a bright light went from the Spirit King's hand to Naruto's making a star chart appear on Naruto's upper arm "you are now able to call upon the zodiac" he said as Naruto examined the tattoo "now let us celebrate" he said as everyone glowed and disappeared
(celestial spirit realm an hour later)
'Man is she still crying?' Naruto said with a smirk as he knew those were tears of joy coming down Aries face as she hugged Loki strongly "you sure you two are just best friends?" he asked Loki who soon gained a blush
"You know you're much cuter up close" Aquarious said sitting next to Naruto as the party went on
"Thank you and so are you" Naruto said as he couldn't believe he was talking to a mermaid
"So you wanna go on a date?" Aquarious asked sounding very sensual "I'm sure we could have some real fun" she said sounding very slutry then transformed her tail into a set of smooth legs which were great along with the rest of her
"Sure I'm game" Naruto said seeing her smirk widen but soon noticed they were being watched by a girl with pink hair wearing a maid outfit which consisted of fishnet stockings, black knee high heeled boots, a very short black skirt, and a tight black corset that did nothing to hide her high D-cup bust "who's that?" he asked Aquarius
"That's Virgo" Aquarious said gaining an annoyed look from losing Naruto's attention
"Jealousy isn't a good look for you" Naruto said to her making her gain an embarrassed blush before he walked over to Virgo "hi I'm Naruto" he said introducing himself
"Hello master I am Virgo" Virgo said introducing herself in an innocent but also sexy manor
Naruto fights back a nosebleed "um why'd you call me master?" he asked her
"I call any wielder of my key by a title and seeing as you are now able to summon me this applies to you" Virgo said explaining to Naruto
'Looks like she's a stubborn one' Naruto thought seeing that her resolve was strong
"Is my outfit satisfactory?" Virgo asked Naruto
"Yes" Naruto said staring at her curvy body
They were interrupted when a woman looking like a tribal dancer cleared her throat, she wore a green and yellow striped bra that held back her DD-cup breasts and even though her legs were covered by a strap of cloth he could tell they were smooth
"Yes" Naruto asked wondering what she wanted
"I request a spar to see if you are worthy to be able to summon us" Libra said as she had many doubts thinking Naruto was unworthy
The other spirits are surprised by this and even more so when Loki began to laugh
"Oh Libra is in for a surprise" Loki said as Naruto's magic whichever he decided to use would decimate Libra
(later)
Libra sent a wave of gravity over the area she and Naruto occupied and he didn't even seem fazed by the shift
'Not bad she amplified the gravity around her but created a field around herself so the gravity is either normal or lighter for her' Naruto thought as even though he didn't protect himself from her attack as he used gravity to intensify his physical training and even had seals on his limbs 'but time to end this' he thought getting serious as he used incredible speed and placed a kunai next to her neck ending the fight
(flashback end)
'Still can't believe I was gone for a month and a half' Naruto thought as he discovered after that incident a full day in the human world was equivalent to two minutes in the celestial realm 'man were the girls pissed after that' he thought remembering the angry faces they had when he returned
"I really wanna join fairy tail" Lucy said not realizing Naruto didn't hear most of what she said as he remembered his experience with the celestial spirits
"Well they're a few towns over if you wanna join" Naruto said deciding not to tell her he and his friends were already members
(later)
"You have two choices tell us where your boss is or we fry you" Naruto said as he and Natsu extended their hands each showing their elements making the man who was trying to convince women to come to a party sweat "and don't lie cause we'll know" he said seeing the man get even more nervous
"Ok ok he's having a boat party he's transporting a shipment of women" the man said with honest to god honesty
'Human trafficking even better' Naruto thought as he was already gonna beat the man senseless but now he even had more reason to be even merciless "what's his name?" he asked wanting to get all the information he could
"Bora of Prominence" the man said as Naruto punched him in the face, knocking him out
'Bora' Naruto thought as he remembered that was the name of the man who broke his wife formerly known as Juvia Lockser now Juvia Namikaze's heart
Kurama saw the look in Naruto's eyes and knew Bora was in for a hell for a beatdown
(later)
Lucy was certainly in a predicament as she was surrounded by slave traders on a ship in offshore and was about to summon a spirit if not for the intervention of her recently met friends
"Who are you" Bora asked the two men who just arrived on his ship
Naruto wasn't really paying attention as he looked at Natsu who was green with motion sickness "you're Bora right" he asked the man who seem to fit Juvia's description
"Yes" Bora said mentally berating himself for admitting his own name and at that moment Naruto punched him in his face sending him flying into a group of his men "you bastard you ruined my face" he complained but at the very least he suffered a broken nose and a black eye
"You deserve more than that for breaking my wife's heart" Naruto said as that was a truly unforgivable crime
"Who's your wife?" Bora asked wondering if he screwed or flirted with any married women in past
"Juvia" Naruto said wanting Bora to know why he was gonna beat him
"That gloomy cow?" Bora said beginning to laugh "I'll admit she had an amazing body and was very clingy but seriously all that rain was depressing even for me" he said as he didn't get the chance to be with Juvia physically do to the rain she always brought
Naruto's body was soon enveloped in a white aura as he glared at Bora
"Oh shit boss he's one of fairy tail's S-class mages the white flash Naruto Namikaze!" a man yelled recognizing Naruto from his description
"Open gate of the water bearer Aquarius!" Lucy yelled out as she brought a key down into a cup of water summoning Aquarius not wanting to be left out of the fight
"Oh now what-" Aquarius was saying till she spotted Naruto "darling!" she said gaining hearts in her eyes seeing Naruto
Lucy was flabbergasted as the usually mean spirit was going gaga over Naruto
"So what's happening lover" Aquarius asked Naruto seeing how serious he was not paying attention to Lucy who wasn't being silent in her complaints
"This dick hurt Juvia" Naruto said as Aquarius gained a similar look of rage
Aquarius raises her gourd and just as she was about to send the ship sinking Naruto stopped her
"Send the ship back to shore I'll handle it" Naruto said as he wanted to beat them all with his bare hands
"Fine but you owe me some fun time lover" Aquarius said to Naruto as she sent the ship to shore like she was asked then disappeared
"Time to get you off" Naruto said as he threw Natsu on land making the dragon slayer as happy as one could be
"You guys handle the pests while I take care of Bora" Naruto said as most of the crew was knocked off the ship leaving just Bora and some men
"Fine by me" Kurama said channeling some wind into his paws as he charged in to fight the crew
Happy was able to grab Lucy as they spectated on the three fighting
"All this for a gloomy bitch?" Bora asked Naruto with hate in his eyes
"Yeah but we'll see who's a 'gloomy bitch' when you're in prison getting passed around" Naruto said angrily "it's mostly because you're a slaver but for hurting and insulting my wife beating you will be a bonus" he said with a smirk
"Fuck that white knight bullshit" Bora said throwing some fire at Naruto who just stood there and took the attack, Bora smiled at this thinking he took Naruto out but stopped that train of thought as Natsu started consuming the flames around Naruto and soon revealed he had not been injured by the flames
"Let's put this guy down" Naruto said as he and Natsu sent a fist at Bora's face cracking his skull but successfully knocking him out
(later)
"Why didn't you tell me you were in fairy tail?" Lucy asked them slightly angry
"You never asked" Naruto said getting a laugh out of Natsu
"Royal knights lets go!" Kurama and Happy yelled as they took off
Naruto looked back and saw Natsu had destroyed most of the dock 'idiot' he thought grabbing Lucy picking her up bridal style and looked at her "if you wanna join fairy tail then let's go" he said as they all ran for the guild
"All right" Lucy said with a smile feeling very comfortable
