Azure King: Here's the last new story of 2015 fromQueen and me!

Azure Queen: So please review as much as you can before 2016 starts hehe! Also the harem is a secret so no asking please =D!

CHAPTER START

"Where am I?" A blonde boy asks while staring strange huge gates. They were even bigger than the gates back in Konoha!

On top of being incredibly big they also have weird carvings engraved on them. One side of the gates has carvings of winged people with halos above their heads, while the other side has carvings of people who look more demonic having long, curved nails, big bat wings behind their backs and very long horns on top of their heads.

"Ah, welcome."

Startled by the voice, the blonde quickly turns behind himself to see another, older male who was dressed in some sort of black tux, standing in front of him. "Whoa, whoa, who are you?"

The blonde asks as the other male takes out pencil and paper with some sort of list on it. The blond boy jumps back a bit as the two items start floating in the air and begin writing all by themselves. "Before I answer any of your questions, first I would like you to answer some of mine and no, you can't leave until you answer all of them. Now first question, do you remember who you are?"

"I..." The blonde boy paused for a bit as he tried to remember anything about himself, and then like lightning it suddenly hit him! "Naruto... I am Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze."

The older male stops writing as he smiles. "Ah, a heroic death? I see, interesting. What's the last thing you remember?"

"I... was laying on the ground next to my best friend, Sasuke Uchiha, and we were both dying, but that's it." The blonde tells him as other memories were assaulting his mind but he was having a hard time deciphering.

"Alright, that will be all." The man says as the floating pencil and paper vanish. "Well, Mister Uzumaki, please listen to me very carefully while I try to explain everything as easily as possible for you." The man says while looking directly into Naruto's eyes, causing the blond to gulp nervously. "You passed away. When you and the Uchiha fought almost to the death, you blew each other's arms off. At the end of the battle, Sasuke and you managed to reconcile the friendship you ones shared, but it was a little too late as both of you were close to bleeding out fast and suffering fatal chakra exhaustion. What little chakra you had left, you transferred it to Sasuke so he would stay alive long enough for medics to arrive and heal him, which was a success by the way as a few moments later the medics did arrive and saved him, but you were already dead by then. Thus here we are."

Naruto nods slowly as the last memory played out in his head and knew what the older male said was true. "So if I'm dead where am I?"

"The Gate of Second Chance." The man says while smiling gently, "You see I am what you call a Grim Reaper or Angel of Death. Well, technically that's my boss's title but let's just say I am here for cutting down time, alright?" The Angel said as Naruto nods in understanding. "Right, so... some people like you were treated badly in the beginning of your lives like Ichigo or Haseo…. wait you don't know them, err scratch that part. Alright since you had a very, VERY, bad childhood, my bosses wanted me to tell you that we're taking responsibility like we did for some others and are prepared to compensate for this endeavor."

"You mean a second chance at life?" Naruto said with wide eyes. The man nods in conformation, but then gains a sheepish look.

"Well, yes... and no at the same time. People souls are tricky things you see. They can only live in particular bodies, AKA your original bodies. Meaning we can't give you a new body, nor just shove your soul down into someone else's body. In order to give you a new life, we need to send you to another world, which more or less is similar to your original one. Are you following on what I've been saying so far?"

The blond hero nods. "What you're saying is that I can't go back to my home and can only be given chance at another life in some alternate reality, am I right?"

"You are correct. However, the decision to do so is yours and yours alone to make, meaning I can't force or influence you in either getting a new life or ascending to heaven." The Reaper explains as Naruto sits down and begins to focus.

He was a Shinobi, a Ninja, who gave his life to end the Fourth Shinobi War, and now he's in some odd limbo with a kind Grim Reaper (Thanks)... who can hear his inner thoughts apparently… who is offering him a second chance at life. "Mind if I ask a question?"

"Sure." Said the man who quirks an eyebrow in curiosity.

"If I died in the next world, would I still be able to meet my friends in the same heaven?" Naruto asked this question with a slightly pleading look. "This is really important."

"Yes, I'm not really supposed to say this but Heaven is actually a one giant place that all worlds are connected to. Trust me; I hang out with Arisato Minato and Ryougi Shiki on a daily basis. So... I'm guessing that knowing this you will take a shot at the second chance?" The Reaper asked to clarify the situation.

"Yes." Naruto nods slightly with a relieved smile on his face. "So, when will you send me to this... new home? Will I just pop out of thin air or something?"

The Reaper shook his head. "Boss wouldn't like me telling you how this works… buuuut since you've been such a good sport so far I'll tell you. We're sending your spirit to an empty vessel, which is extremely similar to your original one. This body is a moment away from death and nothing can be done to save it as the owner's soul has given up on life. Your soul will take over that body and we'll use some of our power to heal the more fatal wounds and the rest you would be able to heal yourself with the help of a medic. So, are you ready?"

"I guess." Naruto says as he turns around to face the huge gates. The Angel of Death snaps his fingers and the gates open. The blond boy covers his face with both arms as his eyes are suddenly assaulted by bright light.

"Just walk through the gates and everything will be done instantaneously! You might feel a bit lightheaded and a bit confused at first, but it will pass over quickly. Good luck my boy, and I hope we will meet some day again!" The Reaper yells before vanishing from existence.

Naruto smiles as he uncovers his face and takes the first new step...

'My head…' Naruto groans in pain as he open his eyes to see the night sky and a… partially shattered moon? 'Wow, guess that guy really wasn't lying about me going to an alternative world. As far as I can remember there isn't any cracked moon back at Elemental Nations.' The boy tries to pick himself up only to fall down while coughing some blood from his lips. 'Damn... did they really heal all of the fatal wounds? I feel like I got in a bare fisted brawl with Granny Tsunade and Sakura... and lost badly. '

"Hey you, don't move or you'll aggravate your wounds too much!"

"Wha...?" Naruto was prevented from voicing his question from the intense pain. He musters as much strength as he can to turn his head to right and spots a man with gray hair and shaded glass spectacles barely covering his brown eyes quickly approaching his location.

"Don't worry, I can help you. Just close your eyes and try to rest. The medics will be here soon." The man promises. Naruto does so and soon feels his body pain and aches slowly dissolve into nothingness. After few moments he feels his mind slip and unconsciousness overtakes him.

Naruto opens his eyes to see a grey ceiling. He also realizes that he was slightly bandaged and his head felt a bit lightheaded. The revived hero tries to lift himself up only to wince from the soreness of his muscles. "Ugh, what did this alternative Naruto do to make me feel so damn hurt and tired?"

The boy groans as he slowly and carefully sits up on his bed and looks over his body. His chest was more or less been better than his original body's, some scars here and there but those seem to be from years ago. His recent wounds look small and round with few slash markings that indicated he was stabbed.

He lifts his arms and raises an eyebrow in confusion when he sees two metal buckles, or something similar to them, attached to his forearms. "What are these?" The ninja says as he felt his muscles move by themselves and his hands lean back as two small yet dangerous blades shoot out of the buckles! "Whoa, I got to be careful with these." Naruto exclaims in surprise as he unbuckled them and gingerly placed them down to the ground.

He then notices that his now uncovered arms had each a single tattoo on them; it was some odd shaped symbol that looked like the letter V from his viewpoint. Before he can puzzle more about it, he hears the door of the room open. At the doorway stood a middle-aged man with tousled gray hair and thin brown eyes. He has a light complexion, and sharp facial features. He wears shaded glass spectacles and a dark-green scarf with a small, purple, cross-shaped emblem on it. His outfit mainly consists of an unzipped black suit over a buttoned vest, with a green undershirt. He also wears black trouser shoes and long, dark-green pants. The man gave the blond boy a kind smile that also came with a tray of soup. "Ah, awake I see."

Naruto slowly nods while looking confusingly at the man. "Um, do I know you sir?"

"Nope. I found you nearly dead at an abandoned factory and quickly took you to the medics. By the way, are you alright now? You had some pretty nasty wounds on you and it's nothing short of a miracle that you survived." The older man asked as he handed the soup to Naruto who in return slowly began to drink it.

"This is good, thank you. I'm still feeling a little bit tired and quite sore, but may I ask you something sir?" Naruto places the soup on his lap after tasting it and begins eating it with a spoon. It's important to never forget proper eating manners! "Where am I? I...can't seem to remember anything."

The man seemed to be surprised by the question. "My boy, did you lose your memories?"

"I'm not sure, I remember my name Naruto Uzumaki, but I don't seem to remember anything besides that." Naruto truthfully says while the older male nods in acceptance and walks over to side of the room where a desk was located. He opened one of the drawers and took out some sort of book.

The man opened the book and gave it to Naruto. The blond looked down at the pages that were showing a global map was amazed by it. Unlike Elemental Nation's were there was a single massive land mass surrounded by smaller islands, this new world he was in had three big land masses and a single huge one. He studies it more deeply, trying to find something that will make him remember anything, but he already knew it was a pointless action. "Sorry, but I don't know what or where I am."

"That's very bad. Are you sure you don't-" The man's eyes widen slightly when he notices Naruto's tattoos and gave him a look of curiosity. "What are those?"

"I dunno, I think their birthmarks or something." Naruto says, though doubtful himself on what they were. After finishing eating the soup he prepares to stand up, but the suited man presses him down and puts the bed sheets over him. The blond looked with concern at him. "Please, I don't want to cause any more trouble."

"It's no trouble at all. You still need a lot of rest before you can move freely about. Just stay here for now while I retrieve someone." The older male says as he also hands over white robes to the boy. "These are your clothes. They were torn and bloody at first but we managed to fix them."

Naruto nods in gratitude as the he starts to unravel his clothes, and was pleasantly surprised at how awesome they looked! 'Wow, this version of me was cool…or at least these swanky robes are!'

The robe's color is the purest of white. A red wine sash showing the same symbol that is on Naruto's arms also covers the whole body. On his left shoulder there was a leather spaulder, which under it had a cape dangling smoothly under his arm. The one thing odd about the whole outfit was the hood; this hood was a bit larger than normal. Naruto puts on his cloak hood to notice that it was a perfect fit but when he looks at the mirror to see his reflection, he notices that his face was almost completely hidden by the shadow of the hood. Only his mouth is visible.

SLAM!

Naruto turns to see the man who gave him back his clothes walk into the room again, and behind him walks in another older man. He had dark spiky hair and donned a cloak, with predominantly dark clothing. He has graying black, spiky hair, with a red, tattered cloak. Wears a gray dress shirt with a long tail, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. He also wears a ring on his right index finger, two other rings on his fourth finger and a necklace with a crooked cross-shaped pendant. He took out a flask and drank its contents, causing Naruto's nose cringe from the smell of alcohol.

"Dude, mind drinking that swell outside?" The boy asks, although, he also wondered what the heck is wrong with his vocabulary. He never said 'dude' before... must been the old Naruto's style of speaking.

The man gave an almost innocent but guilty look, like a young a child being caught sticking his hand in the cookie jar... while still drinking the flask. He sighs putting away the flask. "They taught you how heighten your five senses in the Order?"

"Excuse me?" Naruto asks in confusion as the man pulls out a different flask, this one had the same symbol that was on Naruto body and robes.

"Here, it's... something for your soreness." The graying old man says as Naruto took a long swig of the contents before turning slightly green from the disgusting taste. "Alright, tell me all that you know about the Order."

"Huh? I don't know anyone or anything called that. What is this… this... dude… did you roofie me?!" Naruto accuses the man after suddenly feeling incredibly lightheaded and dizzy. The man nods in confirmation. "Well, thanks for the honesty! But why the hell did you do that?!"

"Well, let's just say that Ozzy here-" The man points at the suited man. "Is bleeding heart kind of man and let's leave at that. Next question, do you truly don't remember who you are?"

"No...I just remember my name and that's all."

"Damn...this is disappointing. I guess that rumor about the Order returning was just bogus. Sorry kid, we thought you were in a...sort of urban legend, a violent one at that. Maybe you wore that robe to look intimidating to your foes. Well, it doesn't matter whatever you did, Ozzy will protect ya from now on." The man lazily says as he walks towards the door, but just as he was about to exit he sharply turns to face the man named Ozpin. "I'll continue looking for answers...something just feels off about this whole thing." He then exist the room and closes the door behind him.

"Sooo...who was that?" Naruto asks before picking up his bracers that held the hidden blades.

"Just a…dusty, old Qrow." Ozpin chuckles at his own joke as he saw Naruto putting his bracers on. "Now…Naruto, I wish for you to stay here until you're fully healed to leave."

The boy looks back with a surprised look. "Wha- seriously? Wow, while I really appreciate that, but I don't want-"

"Then think of it this way, by staying here you will relieve me of worrying about throwing an amnesiac boy into the streets." The kind man says, playing with Naruto's kindness into helping him.

"...Alright then…If it makes you feel better I'll stay. Oh, since we are going to stay together for a while we need to introduce ourselves properly. My name is Naruto Uzumaki! It's nice to meet you Mister Ozpin!" The Hero of the Elemental Nations happily states as he raises his hand.

"Likewise young man! My name is Ozpin…and for now that's it. I hope you're stay is a pleasant one." The man shakes Naruto hand in a friendly manner.

"Zzz...zzz...zzz" Naruto snores loudly before slowing waking up. "*Yawn*, ugh man! I got to stop watching those documentaries with dad. It's beginning to turn me into a night person."

The boy lifts himself up and pushes his bed into the wall since it was a pull out bed, easy to clean up! Naruto then enters his walk in closet to see many versions of his cloak clothes around him. "Hmm, might as well wear the one that I started this new life." The hero joked before pulling out a robe that was a perfect replica of his first cloak and robe when he entered this world. He took on many jobs to earn enough to get a tailor to reproduce them…it might have cost him a lot of lein, but he simply liked how awesome and perfect were the clothing for him.

After taking his morning shower and putting on his clothing, Naruto went to his desk and pulls out a jacket that was filled with electronic devices and small tubes. The young man proceeds to put on technician gloves and took some tools to continue his work.

After a few minutes pass, Ozpin walks into the room holding a cup of coffee and saw his son working on the jacket. "Naruto, shouldn't you take a break from that project? You know that it will take some time to complete it my son."

"Yeah, I know dad, but it keeps me occupied and my hands on the task." Naruto smiles to his adoptive father as he shows him the progress he has done so far.

During Naruto's time here in the new world he finally learned where and what is this place. The world he lives in is called Remnant; an alternate world that was far more advanced than The Elemental Nations. Trains and blimps were practically rare achievements back home that were nearly impossible to reproduce due to the small amount of people who can actually build or even think of inventing those vehicles!

Here in Remnant technological advances simply don't stop! Naruto was more than few times frightened by holograms (thinking they were g-g-ghosts) and other devices before finally getting used to them.

He also discovered that this world didn't have a single trace of chakra! They have another source of power called Aura and Dust. Dust was elemental stones that when grinded, liquefied or purified, can be used for many things like bullets or everyday fuel usage among the world. Aura was more or less the chakra of this world, if he had to compare it. This ability allows people to be protected from harm and heal quickly, though it has limits and will not be able to stop attacks after taking too much damage on itself or the attack is simply too much to handle. But the really cool thing about is-

"So I was just talking to Goodwitch about your grades and skills from your school, Hülle Granz Cathedral academy, and she is coming over for dinner tonight. Glynda wants to enroll you for the pre-classes, if it's ok with you of course?" Ozpin asks, pulling Naruto out of his thoughts and his work on the jacket. "I know you're striving to be a Huntsman, however you only use your Semblance and old fashioned blades. This program allows the teachers help the students make their own weapons." The coffee drinker points at Naruto's leather bracers that held the hidden blades he grown accustomed to.

Another thing about this world is that if you think that everyday tech is amazing, then wait till you see their weapons! In Remnant, instead of ninjas people here have Huntsmen and Huntresses. These people are combat readied heroes that fight against monsters called Grimm who are the embodiment of dark emotions and soulless monsters who attack the population of the world.

Due to many species of Grimm, Remnant has achieved groundbreaking advances for weaponry in order to combat the monsters more effectively. For an example; a katana can also be a shotgun... or a 'Gun-Blade' as one would call such a weapon. Naruto enrolled himself, with some assistance from his adoptive father, to a well-known pre-Huntsmen preparation school. It didn't take him long to become the star of the school, although, he did have one problem... he wasn't really good at wielding any of the basic weapons the school gave him. So he had no choice but to stay with his hidden blades for now. He also had a problem with some classes that concerned long-range training, but he was able to fix that with his newest power...Semblance!

Semblance are powers unique to one's own soul, no two are ever the same. Naruto's semblance simply matched him perfectly and helped him a lot in school. But that didn't mean that he could keep relying on it all the time so that's why he came up with an idea that will soon solve his problem...

Naruto glances at his jacket. 'Heh, soon it'll be like the good ol' days.' He thought while nodding to his father. "Sure, no problem, but I still be sticking on my work with this jacket. If I manage to complete the rest of the work, I won't need any weapons."

Ozpin chuckles. "Heh, well perhaps you can achieve what I wasn't able to. But for now please come down and help me prepare dinner."

"By which you mean I will preparing the whole dinner myself. Sorry dad, but you can't cook to save your life. The last time you cooked you almost burned the whole house down!"

Ozpin laughed sheepishly while taking a sip of his coffee. Yeah, that was one hell of a fire… and the expression on Glynda's face when she found out how the fire started was simply priceless!

AT NIGHT

XXXXXXXXXX

Naruto was cooking some meatloaf and preparing a soup when he heard the door of open. "Welcome back dad!"

The boy just finished setting up the table and got dinner ready. He saw his father walk in with a very attractive woman right behind him. Her name is Glynda Goodwitch, and she is the closest thing to a friend his father has.

"Ah, Naruto I am glad to see you are well." The woman sincerely says as she takes her seat at the table.

Naruto looks her over while serving her food. She is a middle-aged woman that has very light-blonde hair tied back in a bun with a curl hanging down the right side of her face. Her eyes are bright green and she wears thin ovular glasses. She has teal hanging earrings with a small bead identical to her earrings on her collar.

She wears a white long-sleeved suit that exposes part of her chest, and puffy sleeves that tighten near the wrist before spreading back out near her hands. Her lower body has a black business skirt with buttons running in a vertical line up the front of it and lighter black-brown stockings.

She wears black boots with brown heels, and wears a tattered cape that is purple inside and black on the outside, decorated by a row of diamond-shaped brown beads going horizontally across her cape. Above this line of beads appears an emblem of a tiara that is her personal symbol.

All in all…a drop dead gorgeous beauty that could be passes off as Tsunade's younger sister. Though she is a hundred times stricter and Naruto knows for a fact…she doesn't gamble. The woman looks at him with calm gaze. "Is something wrong Naruto?"

"No, no, everything is fine. Anyway, tonight we're having Midnight Soup made from my garden's Nyx roots and some meat I bought from the market. I also made a meatloaf with herbs I also use from my garden, and I know you don't like eating meat so I made a salad for you instead Ms. Goodwitch." Naruto says with a smile as Glynda gave a curt nod. Due to many years of knowing others Naruto can tell she was smiling…on the inside.

"Thank you for thinking of me Naruto, also you can call me Glynda. I'm not your teacher, yet." The strict teacher says with an invisible smirk as Ozpin took his seat in front of his colleague.

"So, this dinner is about me joining an academy?" Naruto went to the point while Goodwitch nods approvingly.

"Yes, I heard from Ozpin that all three of the four great academies had sent letters, representatives, and also…gifts to you since you been on the top rank spot." The blonde woman announces, causing Naruto to sigh.

"I'm not that good, I only rank fifth. Besides, that top ranked girl, Pyrrha if I remember correctly, should be getting stuff like that too right?" Naruto argues, making his father chuckle.

"Hehe, that sort might have been my fault. You see when a headmaster gets to say, -wow my son is more talented than I thought- many people tend to take such comments seriously." Ozpin jokes as the two other blondes roll their eyes at the same time. Ozpin was always the man to calm others down and in many cases wouldn't be the one to start fights…but sometimes he can really be...difficult.

"Why I am not surprised. Oh, by the way Shade gave me some new goggles that have multi-vision function and…sand." Naruto says as he pulls out blue shaded goggles and a white glass filled with black sand. "Haven sent me some nice robes from their schools uniform and are also willing to pay for my weapons expenses, as long as the prices are reasonable of course. And lastly Atlas…sent me their school uniform and a nicely written letter from the headmaster Ironwood." Naruto lists all the "gifts" he received, causing the two adults to sigh.

"But you already have made your choice, didn't you?" Ozpin asks humorously.

"Yeah, I'm going to Beacon. Besides, I'm not too keen in going to schools that are halfway around the world. So I…may I be enrolled for the pre-classes?" Naruto asks politely as Ozpin took a sip of his soup while Goodwitch nods in affirmative.

"We already did that, we just wanted to know if that's what you really wanted." The blonde woman spoke truthfully, making Naruto smile happily.

"Thank you so much! I can't wait to begin the classes…oh, and dad?"

"Hmm?" Ozpin looks up to notice his son giving him the demonic eye and began to sweat a bit from it.

"No more instant food! I'm leaving my recipes here so you can get a proper diet and not live off the school's cafeteria food. I've also written where all the cooking tools are placed and how everything in the kitchen is turned on and off. If I hear anything about a burning building at our location…well, let's just say that the punishment will be most severe." Naruto smirks as he actually did two memorable things; made his farther sulk….and Glynda laugh a bit…or at least he likes to thinks so as watches her cover her mouth while her shoulders shook slightly.

Yeah…this new life seems to be working out just fine…

A teenage girl wearing blue and red robes walks up to a grave while holding Honeysuckles…they were his favorite. "It's been years since you passed away, little brother…" she says neutrally. She lays the flowers there and sits near the tombstone…
