Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto and I do not own RWBY

AN: Yo, it's me again. Naruto gets stuck in Remnant? Sounds crazy, I know. I thought it would be a fun project. I have no idea where this will take me, or if Naruto will pair up with anyone. I'll leave a poll up for you all for pairing options or no pairing.

For the sake of a possible pairing, Naruto is 17, and so is everyone else, with age differences happening accordingly. Ie. Ruby would be 15, Team CFVY would be 18, etc… people would be mad and a little freaked out if 17 year old Naruto started dating a 13 year old Ruby. Not saying that's the pairing, just saying.

Naruto will be… overpowered yes, but it was either that or younger Naruto, and younger Naruto just didn't feel right for some reason. He will know Rasengan, Rasenshuriken, a few different seals (nothing stupidly crazy), Shadow Clones (duh), Sage Mode, and his Nine Tailed Cloak used during the final battle against Madara and the Bijuu.

He will be mature, but kind as he always is. Basically how he is in Boruto the Movie with a few tweaks. I won't get everything perfect.

His outfit is the same as in Boruto the Movie except he also has two pouches strapped to his thighs.

Kyuubi. The fox works with Naruto, helping him since they have since reached an agreement that it's more beneficial to work together than work alone.

Obviously there will be some OOC ness. NOT CANON. Don't expect me to follow the RWBY plotline, cause I don't want to. Also, I don't have to. It is fanFICTION :) Anyways, I'm done rambling. Welcome to An Accidental Tear, I hope you enjoy.

Chapter 1: Remnant?

=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=

Falling. That was the last thing he remembered. He didn't really recall what or who made him fall, but he remembered feeling tired, exhausted. Something he hadn't felt in a long while.

Now though? Well, he didn't exactly know where here was, so he couldn't answer that question. Was he angry? Not really. Was he sad? Kind of, but mostly because he was lost. Was he confused? Nothing was more true. Seriously, when did the world go pitch black?

He looked around, doing his best to take what surroundings he could see. A long black road, cracked and chipped bricks laying in a strange pattern. The water, he assumed it was water, churned slowly, lightly slapping the sides of the road… that was it. He couldn't see another thing in sight. A road, and only two directions to go.

He sighed in distress. Was it his fate to hit every unthinkable thing in the world before he became Hokage? Chuckling lightly at his own words, he chose to go right and started walking.

Fate. It reminded him of Neji. The boy was a giant block of pride and anger, that is, until Naruto beat him. After that, Neji seemed to soften, occasionally smiling with his friends, treating Hinata better than he had before, even training harder to become a better ninja. While Naruto had never told anyone, he was proud of his friend for trying to be a better person.

Soon his thoughts turned to the rest of his friends. Sasuke, the arrogant prick, was his best friend. Stupid idiot had to go and run away. Luckily he turned back and helped Konoha in the battle. Sakura… his old crush, even if she never returned his feelings. The rest of Konoha Twelve had become like a family to him, always there if he needed it. Gai's Team, though eccentric mildly represented some of the members, they were still close and good friends. Kakashi… The man taught him how to climb a tree… yet he couldn't be happier to have the man looking out for him. The old man… Through his death, Naruto found strength. He found the will to push forward, no matter what happens because try as you might, nothing was ever certain.

His feet carried him forward subconsciously, letting Naruto zone out while he was absorbed in his thoughts.

"Naruto." The deep archaic voice boomed in his head.

"What do you want Kyuubi?"

"This place… I've been here before."

"Wait, what? Why didn't you say something earlier? I could have been going in the wrong direction this whole time."

"In this place, there is no such thing a right or wrong. You can only keep drifting." Naruto scratched his head. Drifting? What exactly did that mean? "It has been a long time since I've even seen this place, but I had to make sure before telling you. It is without a name, older than any living being knows. A pathway between worlds."

"Between worlds? You mean like… I'm not in the Elemental Nations right now?"

"I'm afraid not. Many worlds are apart of a single existence, this existence. Imagine a ball, on the ground of Fire Country. Now picture a million more scattered around the entirety of the Elemental Nations. That is this existence. Each ball is a world, and the empty space is this place. If someone were to make there way here, they could eventually find the other worlds."

The blonde was quite shocked. Since he was little, he always imagined that the Elemental Nations were gigantic. His perspective changed when he was told that his entire world was a mere blip in the larger picture. It was unfathomable.

"The only problem will be finding your way back. You can be spit out anywhere in this void. Even if you knew where to go, it could take years just to reach it."

Naruto stopped walking. "So I'm never going home?"

"There's a good chance you won't make it back. Your best bet would be to enter the first world you come across and hope it is the same one. You will be stuck there forever though, unless you somehow manage to find your way here again."

So that's it… His home was gone. The chances were one in millions, not great odds considering he only gets one chance and he knew nothing of the lottery he was forced to take part in.

Angry? Yeah. Sad? Yeah. Confused. Still very much confused.

"So how long will it take to get to the next world?"

"It depends on where exactly you were spit out. Could be a day or two. It could take a year. The only way to know for sure is to find the next one."

He sighed. A year? He would need food, water, he still had training to do. Even if he managed to get food and water, he couldn't slack off on his training.

"Time is still here. You may feel like it passes like normal, but all of the worlds are completely frozen right now. If you manage to find the Elemental Nations, you'll appear the exact same time you disappeared."

"What about food and water?"

"They are unnecessary here. The actual time that passes here is microscopic compared to that of a world. You will never grow hungry and you will never feel thirst."

Well that was convenient. It beat dying in a few days though. He continued walking, hoping that he would soon see another world. The quiet was starting to bother him.

Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang. All are definitely talented. Team RWBY was unofficially considered the best team of their year, barely passing their sister team, Team JNPR. They both accomplished much in their first year at Beacon, but they still were students. Students who had a lot to learn. That much was apparent when all four came back from their last class of the day, groaning and complaining.

"I think I pulled something in my brain." Yang cradled her head as she lie back in bed.

"It wasn't that bad Yang." Weiss tumbled into her bed as well. "Though today did seem exhausting."

"I think Professor Oobleck talked too long. It broke something." Yang complained.

"He isn't that bad, just… a little over excited." Ruby chuckled. The other three gave the girls a deadpan look. She smiled weakly back at them.

"I'm just glad that it's over." Blake muttered from her top bunk, nose buried in a book. "Until tomorrow." Three groans echoed out simultaneously.

"Can we do something fun this weekend?" The blonde sighed. "All we ever do is train and schoolwork."

"Speak for yourself." Yang glared at Weiss.

"Hey, I at least try to do most of it!" Ruby laughed at the two arguing. She definitely loved it at Beacon. Her friends, her team, even the professors. They made the place what it was and nothing could change that.

=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=

A week? A month? Forever? Naruto honestly didn't know how much time had passed. Apparently he had no need for anything. That included sleep as he hadn't even begun to feel tired. He was, however, growing tired of the journey. The only reason he kept on pushing was for the old man's sake. He didn't want to disappoint him. Absently scuffing the ground with his foot, he trudged forward with a sigh.

"Naruto, do you feel that?"

"Feel what?"

"Energy. Unlike any you can find in any given world. It makes up the doorway to each world. It is faint, but you must be close."

Finally, a destination. He began walking with a renewed vigor. Maybe he would get to see his friends soon.

"Remember what I said-"

"Yeah yeah, it might not be the Elemental Nations. Let me at least hope, okay?" Kyuubi grumbled, retreating further into his cell.

Okay, so what if it wasn't the Elemental Nations? Where would he end up? A world covered in water or maybe one with only animals? One with other ninja even?

"One that is nothing more than a desolate and barren wasteland. Nothing is certain yet, just focus on getting to the portal." Naruto didn't like the sound of that. Nothing? Would he be able to survive something like that?

Regardless, he understood that he could pop out anywhere, maybe even into a lonely world. All he could do was prepare and hope for the best.

=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=

He thought it would take longer to reach the portal, but here he was, staring at the swirling mass of black water. The black liquid from the ocean on one side of the road disobeyed physics, streaming upwards before falling back to its source, creating a thick curtain.

"So this is it?"

"It is. All you need to do is step into the portal."

"Hope for Konoha-"

"-Prepare for the worst." The two almost laughed at the way Kyuubi had finished Naruto's thought. The fox was quick to growl at the comparison.

"Well… Here goes nothing." Naruto took a step forward, falling into the portal. He disappeared, leaving the swirling black mass standing in the realms newfound emptiness.

Their weekend did not go as expected, nothing close to the sort.

Professor Goodwitch had called them to her office before they could leave. They had an emergency mission to a small village near Beacon. A large Ursa had started attacking the town and they were required to leave immediately. When they arrived, no such beast existed. The villagers mistook a big bear for an Ursa and had them called in. Since the trip to the village took nearly a day, their weekend was shot. All for a bear…

"This is so dumb!" Yang cried out, kicking a rock along the path back to Beacon. "You'd think they could tell the difference between a bear and an Ursa. I wanted to go dancing!"

"Well of you would stop focusing on such trivial matters, you would realize that the bear did still attack the village. They were scared." Weiss scolded the blonde.

"Weiss is right Yang." Ruby interjected. "I'd rather be there when we aren't needed than not be there when we aren't."

Yang huffed but agreed. She would gladly save anyone that needed it, she wasn't heartless. Just for one weekend she was hoping for a nice break with the team. They didn't often get breaks from the huntress life. Maybe if they picked up the pace they could still have a few hours to do something together.

Yang was about to speak when she heard a snap. She looked at her teammates with worry. They had heard it too. Turning to face forest, they prepared themselves for a fight. The waiting was killing them as the noise grew louder.

"Let's just go and check it out." Yang spoke. "What if there are people out there." The others agreed with her reasoning and they slowly moved into the forest.

Along with the noise, they could now hear what sounded like a voice. Panic taking hold, they started running. If someone was in trouble they had to hurry. They sped through the trees, straining their ears for any changes in the voice or, what they hoped not to hear, the roar of a Grim.

"Dammit!" The male voice caught their attention. It didn't take long for them to reach the sight of the voice and they surprised by what they saw. Trees toppled, small craters in the ground, and an angry blonde standing in the middle of it all. A small, swirling blue ball formed in his hand. He grit his teeth and pulled his hand back.

"Rasengan!" He yelled, slamming the ball into a still standing tree. The ball drilled through the trunk, creating a large hole in its base. Hunched over and panting, he began forming another one when he noticed four people staring at him.

"Hello." Ruby, always the optimist, spoke up. "Are you okay?"

"No…" Naruto whispered. "Can you tell me where I am?" He raised his voice so they would hear him.

"About a day's journey from Beacon Academy." Yang explained. "We were on our way back when heard you out here. We thought you might have been in trouble."

Naruto hung his head. Definitely not the Elemental Nations. He had his suspicions when he came across that black beast with the white mask, but this just confirmed it. He knew quite a lot of places from his home, but Beacon Academy was never one of them.

"What country is this?" The girls gave him a confused look. He didn't even know what country he was in? He must be lost.

"Country? Do you mean Kingdom?" Naruto raised an eyebrow at Weiss. "We are in the kingdom of Vale." That cemented the fact. No such kingdom existed in the Elemental Nations.

He sighed in exasperation. "Would you be able to point me towards a place that needs work? I don't have any money." He didn't like asking for help, always pushing through any obstacles by himself. However, he was in an unknown world with no money, no place to sleep, and no way of knowing when or where his next meal would come from. The best he could do was hope these girls could give him good directions.

"What do you mean no money?" Ruby asked. "How did you end up out here?"

"My… village… it's hard to explain. I can't go back and I'm not familiar with anything outside of it." Best to keep his secret. They might attack him if they knew he was basically an alien.

"Well…" Yang thought aloud. "You could always come back to Beacon with us."

"What?" Weiss interjected. "He's not a student and non students aren't allowed on campus without the Headmaster's permission."

"Weiss he is lost." Blake finally spoke, holding off Weiss's denial of the boy accompanying them. "That's the least we could do. Professor Ozpin would be nice enough to at least point him in the right direction. He wouldn't kick him out without listening first."

"Plus Vale always has work available." Ruby cheered. "He could get a job there."

Naruto watched their interaction with some amusement. They seemed like a small family, but none of them even looked remotely alike to be related. Maybe a team? That would explain why they were out together with weapons. Speaking of, their weapons looked… weird.

The short girl had a… block of metal? How was someone her size even able to carry that? The white haired one had a thin sword. At least that could kill something, but it didn't look very sturdy. The quiet one had a blade that looked fairly sturdy and very sharp. So far she seemed the most equipped. Then the blonde one… Armguards? They didn't even cover much and they left her hands exposed. How would that help against anything? Also, what was with the skirts!? How could you fight in that? The girls he knew never wore stuff like that.

"Excuse me?" Weiss spoke loudly. Naruto raised his gaze and turned to stare at the girl. "Just what exactly were you looking at?"

"You're… weapons… I've never seen any like that. I'm sorry if I offended you." Dammit! He didn't want them to leave him here. He hoped that his apology would deter them from any kind of thoughts of that nature.

"You like weapons too!?" Ruby asked excitedly, cutting off Weiss's apology. "I love weapons! Seeing new ones is always cool, like meeting new people."

Naruto nodded. He could understand that. Seeing Zabuza's sword for the first time definitely made him excited at seeing something so cool. Though he was too busy trying not to die to really care all that much at the time.

"I would appreciate it if I could travel with you to Beacon." He bowed. Normally, respect wasn't something he showed that often. Everyone was a friend and he treated them like it. He really wanted to get it across that he was in need though. Without them, he could very well die in the forest before finding food or water.

The girls led him out of the forest, back to the road they were on before heading back to Beacon.

=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=#=

"So… What's your name?" Ruby spoke up. Ten minutes of silence was uncomfortable, especially for the highly friendly girl. Naruto had taken to walk as far away from them as possible without seeming disrespectful. He wanted to avoid as many questions from them as possible since his part was rather… well they wouldn't understand about ninja.

"Naruto Uzumaki." Ruby raised an eyebrow at his name.

"That's… a different kind of name. It sounds cool though." Naruto stayed silent, earning a frown from Ruby. "I'm Ruby Rose."

"Yang Xiao Long." The blonde girl smiled brightly.

"Weiss Schnee." She spoke with an air of authority.

"Blake Belladonna." He could barely hear the last one. She seemed to not like talking. Ruby continued her questioning after Blake spoke.

"What kind of weapon do you have?" Naruto turned to look at the expectant girl. He flipped open a pouch on his waist and pulled out a kunai. "A knife?"

"It's called a kunai. It's used primarily for stabbing and cutting, though you are able to throw them if you need to." He pocketed the kunai. He wasn't going to tell them about his ninjutsu as he had yet to see anything that resembled that in this world. "I am also proficient at fighting in close combat without a weapon."

Ruby thought that was pretty cool. Fighting Grim with your bare hands? Awesome!

"What about that blue ball?" Weiss asked. "The one you made earlier."

Naruto looked at his hands before creating his signature move. The swirling mass blared to life, creating a small gust in the calm air.

"Rasengan. It's used for completely tearing an opponent's insides apart." Ruby looked a bit squeamish at the thought, but hey, people do things differently all over the world. Who was she to judge him for doing that.

"It must be easy to beat Grim with that." Yang smiled. She saw it's destructiveness in the forest, it definitely packed a punch.

"Grim?" The girls looked at his confused expression. He had never heard of Grim?

"You don't know what Grim are?" Ruby asked astonished. "The big black creatures that have no souls?"

"Oh those… yes it is effective against them." Naruto continued walking, hoping that their questioning was done. When he noticed they had stopped, he turned to look back at them. "Is something wrong?" His tone was genuine and curious.

"If you don't know what Grim are, how do you know it tears insides apart?" Weiss accused him, looking fairly angry.

Naruto froze, his eyes widening for a moment. Before he could say anything else, Yang stepped up.

"You use that on people?" Her voice clearly spoke anger, but it was held back. Weiss and Ruby looked sick, Blake narrowed her eyes.

"I…" Naruto started before sighing. "I'm sorry. I'll leave you be." He turned to head back into the forest. So much for making it to this Beacon place. They thought he was a murderer and definitely wouldn't trust him now. He never liked killing people, but sometimes it had to be done.

"Hold on!" He turned at Yang's voice. "You aren't going anywhere. We are definitely bringing you to Professor Ozpin now." He saw the four get into stances of sort. The block of metal on the short girls back transformed into a large scythe.

"Very well. Do you need to tie me up?" They looked confused at his rather quick surrender, but accepted it nonetheless.

"Blake, can you tie him up?" Blake nodded, procuring rope to tie his hands together with.

"Wait." Naruto raised his hand, slowly reaching for his pouch. The girls became guarded again, waiting for his move. He pulled out what appeared to be a roll of thread. "Don't waste your rope. This is steel wire, it will work more effectively."

What? Did he just give them a better way to secure his hands? Blake approached cautiously as Naruto held out the wire.

"Set it down." Naruto did, back up slowly from the spool. Blake grabbed it, examining the thread before nodding, confirming it was exactly what he told them it was. She pulled a length of it out, Naruto held his hands outward for her to tie.

"Behind your back. You can still fight with your hands in front of you." Naruto complied, turning around and putting his hands behind his back. After Blake swiftly tied him up, she grabbed his arm and dragged him out into the middle of the road.

"Let's go. We should try and hurry back now." Yang spoke, glaring at the tied blonde.

"So much for peaceful."

"At least you are going to this Beacon place. Hopefully this Ozpin person is willing to excuse your past in exchange for something."

"If not?"

"Well I suppose you'll die. At least I'll be free."

Naruto sighed as Kyuubi chuckled. He really wanted to go home.
