Tribrid in Rosewood 7
Last time
Hanna had just awoken and the first thing she was her mom, and after they talked for a while she had her mom call the girls and watched as she left the room.
"You gave us quite the scare."
Hanna jumped as she saw Naruto sitting in a corner, "H-how long have you been there."
"All night." Naruto said standing up and walking forward to sit beside her with his back turned to the window, "Do you remember what happened?"
"Yeah. I remember all of it." Hanna said looking at Naruto, "Your face."
Naruto allowed his true face to manifest watching as Hanna gasped, "I'll tell you anything you want to know."
Hanna looked at Naruto for a moment and opened her mouth to speak.
Chapter start
"How about we start with what are you?" Hanna asked.
Naruto shrugged and said, "I could say that I'm a vampire but I am much more complicated than that."
"Yeah well I saw you get plowed over by a car and watch you get up, heard the sickening sound of your bones…fixing themselves and pull a shard out glass out of your skull. Uncomplicate it," Demanded Hana, wanting answers before she goes completely insane.
"Okay, okay. I guess the best place to start is with my parents. You see my mom was never human. She was a three thousand-year-old Kitsune, a Japanese fox spirit. And my father was the Original Hybrid, Klaus Mikaelson." Naruto said at the mention of his father.
Hanna looked shocked at this, Kushina Uzumaki was a three thousand-year-old fox spirit. While Naruto's father was a hybrid, whatever the hell thatmeant.
"Original Hybrid? What does that mean?" Hanna asked.
"It means he is one of the Originals, the first vampires in existence. But he's also a Hybrid, half-vampire, half-werewolf." Replied Naruto
"Wait, I thought vampires couldn't have children, cause they're you know, dead." Said Hanna.
"I think it'd be easier if I just showed." Naruto said reaching out to touch Hanna's temple, only for her to lean back.
"What are you doing?" Hanna asked still wary.
"Relax. If you open your mind to me, I can show you. My uncle showed me this, and now I will show you." Said Naruto, remembering how Elijah showed him how he and his family became vampires.
Hanna allowed Naruto to place his hand on her head before they closed their eyes.
"In the beginning, my father's family was human... A thousand years ago, when Vikings still roamed Europe. Before my father was even born, his family had come to America to avoid a plague that had been spreading through Sweden." Naruto said as he began showing Hanna the same memories Elijah showed him.
Flashback
"Come, Henrik. Our brothers are fighting again." Said his aunt Rebekah
"Although his mother dabbled in the dark arts, they were actually just a family trying to survive in a time when it was quite difficult to do so. And, for better or worse, they were happy."
Present Day
"That is, however, until one night, their youngest brother was killed by their village's greatest threat."
Flashback
"Mother!" Klaus cried carrying Henrik's body back to Esther.
Present Day
"Men that could transform themselves into wolves during the full moon. The family was devastated, none more than my bastard of a father. Desperate to protect the rest of their children, their father forced their mother to call upon her black magic in order to make us stronger."
Flashback
"Drink!" Order Mikael holding a bleeding wrist for Rebekah
Rebekah drank the blood as the transition into a vampire was complete.
Present Day
"Thus, the first vampires were born. But with this speed, this strength, this immortality, came a terrible thrist for human blood. No one felt this hunger more than Niklaus."
Flashback
Klaus fed on a human killing them in the process.
"When he killed for the first time, they knew what he truly was." Naruto said.
"Niklaus!" Shouted Elijah.
"What is happening to me?" Klaus asked fearfully.
Elijah went to help his brother but was stopped by their father.
"Don't!" Commanded Mikael stopping his son.
"Father! It hurts!" Said Klaus in pain as his bones continued breaking.
"He's a beast, an abomination." Mikael said in disgust.
Present Days
"He wasn't just a vampire." Said Naruto.
"He was also a werewolf." Hanna realized.
"He was the result of an indiscretion their mother had hidden from them all. An affair, with a werewolf."
Flashback
"Infuriated by this betrayal, their father forced their mother to cast a spell that would suppress Klaus's werewolf side, denying him any connection with his true self." Naruto said
Klaus groaned as he awoke, and felt himself being bound to a cross, looking up his eye widened seeing Mikael bind him to a cross as Esther prepared a spell, with Elijah standing off to the back.
Quickly Klaus got his free arm lose as Mikael tried to shackle it and tried to undo his other arm but Mikael grabbed it, "Elijah! Elijah, hold him down!" Mikael yelled.
"Brother, please! Don't let them do this to me!" Klaus yelled fighting against Mikael.
"Do it now, boy! Now!" Mikael demanded before Elijah walked forward and helped Mikael.
"Help me!" Klaus pleaded and watched in shock as Elijah looked away.
Esther walked forward with a heated moonstone soaked in Tatia's blood, "Anima marcam. Iskoristi vuka." she chanted as Mikael and Elijah backed away.
"Mother, please don't!" Klaus yelled struggling, but Esther said nothing and without an expression used the moonstone and branded Niklaus who screamed in pain causing Elijah to flinch.
Klaus screamed in pain as his forehead sizzled from the heated moonstone digging into it, and his soul being manipulated, his werewolf side suppressed, before he collapsed as he passed out.
Present Day
Hanna processed all the information she was just told, shocked and amazed at it all. That she just saw the birth of the vampire species, and vampires are real, learned werewolves and witches were real as well. And her childhood best friend was the son of an ancient Kitsune and the Original Hybrid.
"Wait, if your dads werewolf side was sealed, then how could you be born?" Hanna asked.
"My theory is that his werewolf side could not be fully suppressed, as he was immune to enchanted silver weapons. It's not a long shot to think he could still have children, but it'd be a one in a trillion chance. I just happened to be that one chance." Naruto replied.
"Alright so you are what exactly? A vampire, a werewolf, witch, kitsune?" Hanna asked.
"I'm a Tribrid; part Original Vampire, part witch, part kitsune. I don't have a wolf side because my mothers stronger kitsune genes erased them." Explained Naruto, Hanna nodding.
"Okay, is that why were you always so…" Hanna trailed off not wanting to sound insulting.
"Emotional as I got older?" Naruto offered.
"Yes, that was why. You see vampires and kitsune are creatures that experience emotions much stronger than humans. Anger becomes wrath, sadness becomes despair, happiness becomes euphoria, sorrow becomes depression, every single emotion is enhanced. With me being a kitsune and a vampire though…Think what you might be going through as a teenager, times that by ten, then times that by 3, and you've got the intensity of my emotions. I didn't have the control back then that I do now. It's why I had to stay away after mom's passing until I could gain control enough to interact with people without losing my cool." Naruto said.
Hanna couldn't help but feel sympathy for Naruto, having to deal with such intense emotions and not understand what they meant. She couldn't imagine what that felt like.
"Well how exactly did you learn about all this?" Hanna asked, Naruto gaining a bittersweet look in his eyes.
"You know how a person becomes a vampire is they die with a vampires blood in their body, the same applies to me." Said Naruto cryptically.
"You mean you… died before?" Hanna asked feeling sick at the thought.
"Yeah, when my mother was murdered in the crash. I died, but as a vampire in transition is neither alive or dead, I was written as a coma. I was truly dead. Usually it takes about a half-hour before someone in transition wakes up, but it took me a month as all three of my supernatural sides vying for dominance, until finally they settled and I woke up at night, thirsty for one thing; blood." Said Naruto, Hanna looking a little queasy.
"Did you… kill anyone?" Hanna asked.
"No, I managed to avoid any humans but I did tear my way through the hospitals entire supply of blood bags." Said Naruto.
"Okay, but how did you find it about all of this? Something tells me you didn't know what was happening." Hanna stated.
"Yeah, I was pretty freaked out. It wasn't until I got home and I found my mother's journal, one she kept hidden from me until she thought I was ready to learn about the supernatural or when I entered transition, that I understood what was going. It was extremely detailed and explained everything to me; what she was, who my father was, everything I needed to know." Replied Naruto, Hanna nodding along slowly.
"Okay, what happened after?" Hanna asked, Naruto getting up and walking around the room.
"I was shocked. My entire world was flipped upside down. I wasn't human, my mother was dead and my father didn't know I existed." Said Naruto, looking at Hanna.
"What did you… do after that?" Hanna asked only ever knowing what Naruto did through magazines or news.
"I flipped my switch." Naruto stated plainly.
"Your switch?" Asked Hanna worriedly, Naruto nodding.
"For vampires, their greatest weakness is their humanity because they feel everything greater than humans. But vampires have one advantage over humans, they can control their emotions by turning them off. It lets them no longer feel things like fear, regret, sadness, anything that holds them back, letting them become the perfect killing machine." Said Naruto remembering the times he flipped his switch.
He was efficient, deadly, remorseless, and completely without mercy.
Hanna covered her mouth in horror at the thought of Naruto, the same kind, loving, and energetic boy she knew, becoming a ruthless killer.
"And… how long did you have your emotions off? What did you do? When did you turn them back on?" Hanna asked not wanting to know what he did but knowing she needed to know.
"Around two months. I drank, killed, tortured, and slept around with any girl that got my attention. For when I turned them on…it wasn't my choice. It was sometime during the second month… I don't really remember it kind of all blurs together at some point, but my uncle Elijah found me after hearing of my escapades that he believed his brother, my father, was responsible for." Naruto said.
Flashback
Naruto laughed as he watched the show. He was in a random club in Los Angeles, wanting to get drunk and find some poor bastards to eat. After compelling everyone in the club to obey his commands, he went about feeding off and dancing with random girls, drinking all the booze he could get, but eventually he got bored.
He then got an idea and compelled himself a game of darts. Tying a someone to the wall and having people take turns throwing darts, with the winner being whoever gets killing shot. So far, no ones got a killing shot, but it was still funny especially considering he compelled them to know what they were doing was wrong but still forced them to do it.
Though his fun was soon interrupted when someone entered the club.
"Well this is a fine mess you've made Niklaus." Elijah stated looking at the many bodies lying on the floor and blood splattered everywhere.
He had followed a rumor of a vampire going around America leaving a trail of blood and death in his wake. While Elijah would normally dismiss these rumors as just another young arrogant vampire. What did catch his attention was that this vampire could apparently compel other vampires.
This did have Elijah's attention because as far as he knew only he and Klaus are currently the only Originals currently awake. Thus Elijah followed the trail of the one he believed to be his brother, eventually finding himself in Los Angeles.
Unfortunately, when the one Elijah believed was his brother turned to face him he didn't see Klaus. Rather, he saw someone that looked like a much younger Klaus, clearly with his emotions off, given the lack of expression in his eyes.
His next words however threw Elijah through a loop.
"How do you know my father?" Naruto demanded.
'Father? No, that's impossible, unless…' Elijah thought his mind racing.
Vampires cannot procreate. Klaus though, wasn't just a vampire, he's a Hybrid. If what this boy said is true, then it's likely this was another one of nature's loopholes.
'Nature must always have a balance.' Thought Elijah remembering his mother speaking those words.
"Hey, I asked you a question." Said Naruto speeding in front of Elijah forcing him to look into his eyes.
"How do you know my father?" Naruto repeated attempting to compel the guy.
Elijah gave Naruto a blank look before grabbing his wrist and forcing him to let go of his neck.
"Young vampires, so arrogant." Stated Elijah, throwing Naruto across the room.
Even if the boy was his nephew, Elijah wasn't going to let him get away showing disrespect to his elder.
'Well, that's new.' Naruto thought, groaning from where he crashed into a table.
The few times he came across other vampires, werewolves, and witches, he easily overpowered them, no matter how many there were. Actually meeting someone that could hurt him was unexpected but did give him an idea of who the guy was.
"Let's see wears suits, perfectly quaffed hair, impeccable manners, and obviously much older than me. I'm gonna hazard a guess and say you're Elijah." Guessed Naruto remembering reading about all the Originals in his mother's journal.
The noble one, Elijah Mikaelson.
The eldest and one who's been locked in box for 900 years, Finn Mikaelson.
The wildest of the family, Kol Mikaelson.
The sister, Rebekah Mikaelson.
And finally the Original Hybrid, Niklaus Mikaelson, his father.
"Hello nephew." Elijah greeted smiling pleasantly
Before frowning as he looked around, he wasn't sure how long Naruto's had his emotions been off. But if he continues with this type of behavior he's likely to draw the wrong kind of attention to himself. Knowing what he had to do Elijah sped towards Naruto and grabbed him before he could react.
"Turn it on." Elijah compelled
End Flashback
"After that, all my emotions came back to me. When a vampire turns their emotions back on, all their emotions come rushing back. It made me want to shut it off again. But I couldn't, because he compelled me to keep them on so I would be more willing to listen." He said.
Considering he'd still been relatively new to his Tribrid nature and not in his most stable mind it was easy for Elijah to compel him. Now however Naruto couldn't be compelled at all even if he was completely off his rocker, which only made him that much more dangerous when he flipped his switch.
"Okay, what happened after?" Hanna asked wanting to know more.
"After helping me cope with everything I did, Elijah began teaching me the finer points of being a vampire, how to go unnoticed and not draw attention to myself, and everything I was capable of. Though he couldn't help me with my Kitsune and Witch side as he never bothered with magic and didn't even know Kitsune existed." Naruto explained.
"Once I had a grasp of my vampire abilities and had control of my bloodlust, Elijah finally took me to meet my father." Said Naruto glaring at the wall as he remembered the first and only meeting he had with his father.
Flashback
"And you're sure he's here?" Naruto asked looking out the car window.
Elijah nodded making a humming sound.
"My brother has always been one to enjoy the finer things in life, art, music, foods." Elijah said gazing out at the coast of Italy.
It took a while but Elijah had finally managed to track down his brother, but after several months he was able to get a location. Elijah had been searching for his brother during the entire time he had been educating his nephew on his powers as a vampire.
The Original had soon learned Naruto could be considered a prodigy, he took to his powers better than most and he was able to gain control over his bloodlust rather quickly even when tempted with large amounts of blood he didn't react.
'He's so different from Niklaus and yet they're also very similar.' Elijah thought having learned Naruto shared his father's love of art and charming personality along with a temper he inherited from both his parents.
Looking at the boy Elijah could sense his nervousness and fear, but also his excitement. Nervous at finally meeting his father, fearful of rejection, and excitement to meet the man he's wanted to meet since he was a child.
Elijah could only hope Klaus didn't disappoint him again.
Pulling up to a large villa, Elijah shook his head at his brothers need for large houses, they got out of the care and walked up to the door.
"Are you ready?" Elijah asked.
"Is anyone ever ready to meet an absentee parent?" Asked Naruto, Elijah chuckling a little.
"No, I suppose not. Just… don't take anything Niklaus says or does to personally. He can be rather volatile when caught off guard." Elijah said knowing all the times Niklaus has been caught by surprise with something unexpected his response was always the same
Anger.
Entering the villa they didn't have to search for Klaus as they saw him standing at the top of the stairs, likely having heard them. Elijah saw he looked exactly the same since the last time they saw each other, only difference being his clothing style.
"Elijah." Klaus greeted with a smirk and his arms behind his back.
"Hello brother. It's been a while." Said Elijah putting his hands in his pockets.
"Not long enough. Tell me who is your friend here?" Questioned Klaus giving Naruto a once over before dismissing him while descending the stairs.
"Before I answer that, do you remember a woman named Kushina Uzumaki?" Elijah said.
That got Klaus to pause momentarily. He did indeed remember Kushina, the perfect definition of a fiery redhead he spent a week with.
Seeing his brother pause told Elijah everything he needed to know.
"Niklaus, it seems even we were not aware of the full extent of your Hybrid nature." Said Elijah.
"What're you talking about Elijah? Speak clearly and tell me who this boy is?" Klaus demanded his Hybrid status being a sore spot until he could finally break his curse not to mention a secret.
"Niklaus, this is your son, Naruto Uzumaki." Elijah revealed, Naruto finally stepping forward.
"It's, uh, it's nice to finally meet you." Said Naruto holding out his hand.
Klaus looked between Elijah and Naruto for a few moments, before looking at his brother.
"No, that's impossible, vampires can't procreate." Klaus denied shaking his head.
"And yet here is. Someone with a vampires power and yet still has magic coursing through his veins, who else but you could be the father Niklaus." Retorted Elijah hoping his brother would see the truth.
"Yet from what I can tell he has not an ounce of werewolf blood in him." Klaus stated smirking not feeling the boy was a werewolf.
"Yes well it seems vampires, werewolves, and witches are not the only supernatural creatures as we believed. From what Naruto has told me his mother was a very powerful kitsune, one even older than us, and her kitsune side overpowered any wolf gene you may have passed on. Thus Naruto is part vampire, part witch, and part kitsune." Replied Elijah though knowing this would be the truly hard part as if Naruto did inherit his father's wolf side it'd be much easier.
But as he's left bodies up and down America and not transformed into a wolf once, it's likely he won't transform at all.
Klaus merely laughed mockingly and turned his back to them.
"A likely, and might I say, convenient story. I sleep with an alleged 'kitsune' and she gives apparently gives birth to this boy, so he obviously must be mine. For all I know he could just be the result of some witches experiment, in fact he probably isn't even who you claim he is Elijah!" Klaus said angrily.
That is when Naruto made his presence known as he sped right in front of Klaus growling.
"I honestly don't care what you think or say about me, but don't EVER say anything about my mother!" Growled Naruto, Klaus glaring back with equally fury.
"I will say whatever I damn well please! Your mother was just a distraction to me, a pretty enough human to catch my attention, and whatever lies she told you I will put an end to when I track her down and tear her head of-"
Klaus couldn't finish her threat Naruto decked him in the face sending him flying into the wall. Before he regain his bearings Naruto was on him and began raining blow after blow on the Original.
"Don't. Ever. Threaten. My. Mother. To. Me. Ever. AGAIN!" Naruto roared grabbing Klaus and throwing him through the wall.
Coughing up blood Klaus growled in anger at the humiliation and prepared to tear the brat apart. Only to be pinned to the ground with a boot slammed on his back breaking his spine temporarily paralyzing him. Looking up, Klaus was frozen for a moment as he saw Naruto's true face emerge. But in that moment he didn't see Naruto, he saw both himself and the man who tormented him for the last thousand years since he was a boy.
Mikael.
"You wanna know something funny? For as long as I could remember, I wanted to meet you, to know you. I asked mom about you and she'd say my father was the strongest man in the world, that he was the one monsters were afraid of, and that nothing could stop him. Then Elijah told me about you, that you were the fiercest of your entire family, that in a thousand years he never saw anyone stand against you, not even your father. And now that I've finally met you, I would have preferred it if I never did. And you're right, you're not my father, I'm not your son." Naruto said.
Before Klaus could say anything Naruto shoved his hand into his chest and ripped out his heart, temporarily killing him.
Exiting through the hole in the wall he made Naruto conjured a ball of Foxfire and threw it at the house letting start burning it down. Walking up next to Elijah, who hadn't moved from his spot knowing there's nothing he could do and looked to him.
"When the bastard wakes up, tell him that if I ever see him again I'll cut him into pieces, incase them in cement, and scatter them to the seven seas." Naruto said before exiting the burning building.
As he left Naruto closed his eyes before opening them a second later, only now they were darker and without emotion.
End Flashback
Hanna couldn't help but look at Naruto in sympathy seeing he was shaking in rage at the memory. She remembered when they were young and he'd look longingly at children with both their parents, knowing their mother and father, while he never even met his father. And when he did the man, rejects him as his son without giving him a chance..
"Naruto I'm so sorry that happened, he had no right to do that to you." Hanna said putting a comforting hand on his leg.
"It's fine." Naruto shrugged.
He'd long since gotten over Klaus rejecting him, he wasn't even originally angry about being rejected, it was mostly because he threatened and insulted his mother. Turning his emotions off was because he didn't want to lose control of his anger.
"After that I spent a few more weeks without my emotions, but eventually I got my head on straight, went to a therapist, cleaned myself up, and got better." Naruto concluded.
"Did you ever…what was that mind control thing again?" Hanna asked.
"Compulsion." Naruto offered.
"Right, that. Did you ever do that to me?" Hanna asked.
"No." Naruto said as he then thought, "Although there was one time I thought about doing it. Remember when you wouldn't stop bugging me taking Mona to Homecoming?"
"Hey it's not like you were planning to go anyway." Hanna retorted.
"I wasn't going to go because I wanted to go with you and I couldn't." Naruto said as he looked into her eyes.
"You did?" Hanna asked kinda lamely.
"Have you not been paying attention to the times when we are alone together? Like that time you kissed me when you asked if I would have sex with you or that time when I told you how I would never hurt you when A sent you that picture of your mom kissing me when she was drunk. When I'm with you, it's takes every ounce of self-control that I have not to take you into my arms, kiss you and never let you go. Because I love you Hanna, and I want you to choose me willingly, and not because I forced you to."
Naruto leaned in and they shared a tender, passionate kiss. "I'm gonna go get some coffee. I'll be back shortly."
When Naruto left the room, Hanna's mind was a whirlwind of thoughts. 'First my best friend is Tribrid and his parents are a three thousand year old kitsune and a millennia old Hybrid. Second, the supernatural world is real, monsters worse than A are real. And third…' Hanna thought.
"I think I'm falling in love with him." Muttered Hanna.
Chapter End
I think I'm gonna either rewrite this story, where instead of Hanna as the main love interest, it would be Aria, as I just love her character more than Hanna, or continue as is. I have put up a poll on my profile page to get your opinions on the subject. It will be up for one week.
