A Rather Fortuitous Accident
October 10, Five Years after the Kyuubi Attack.
Five year old Naruto was running, again. No it wasn't because he liked to run, though he did have the energy to go on for long periods of time. It was because of the mob that was after him.
He really should have listened to Hokage-jiji about staying in his house tonight.
"Die you demon brat." Someone says, tripping him up.
Soon, the mob had surrounded him, and with the help of a few random shinobi, he was tired up tight in ninja wire. What he didn't know if that those ninja were ROOT ninja, and followed Danzo, not Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Naruto tried to endure, but this mind just couldn't handle the trauma. He struggled, and managed to get his hands free to the point where he can make handseals.
He didn't think about what jutsu the was attempting. He had only seen Jiji-Sama do it once, and that was so a class he snuck into to learn. He got caught by the teacher, but snuck past the students. There teacher had to let let him stay as Jiji-Sama laughed a bit, and said that Naruto wanted to learn more early on.
Now, attempting to replicate the Summoning Jutsu, with no practice, and not being able to see his hands, lead to the Jutsu being very wrong.
Instead of summoning something to help, or doing a reverse summoning to the Animal Realm, the amount of chakra that he pushed through the jutsu meant that he did the improbable, going to a different world.
In Spira. Harry's POV
Watching Dad Tidus play Blitzball it amazing. I see why he's feared in the stadium. Luka really is a nice place, but i rather much prefer home in Besaid. I go to congratulate him on another well played game when Mom Yuna and I stop.
"What is that?" I ask.
"I don't know, let's go find out." Mom Yuna says as she pulls out her gun.
We follow the energy, only to come across a young boy, probably a little older than me. He's hurt bad, and I can see that there is some wire warped around him. Who would do such a thing to him?
Naruto's POV
'The last thing I remember, was the ninja saying that I was like how Leader-Sama asked. Weren't all ninja under the command of the Jiji-Sama, the third Hokage? Was he the one who put his own ninja against me? Why would he do that?' I think.
'I think, that I never want to go back to Konoha again.' I think, only to be hit by a wave of sadness, 'If the Hokage wanted me injured, why, those looked like ANBU ninja, secret ninja. Maybe, I am a monster...' I think.
I open my eyes after that revelation, and see that I am someplace I have never been in before, maybe not in the Land of Fire? I hear footsteps coming my way, are they after me?
The lady was no ninja, she was to loud for it, but she did hold an impressive weapon that was probably a ranged weapon. The boy, on the other hand, was dressed similar to the Iryo-nin at the hospital. The lady was trying to talk to me, but I'm scared, will I say the wrong thing? Will they hurt me when they find out who I am? What will happen to me now?
Harry's POV
After seeing what the problem is, I activate the White Mage Dressphere, which is me dressed in a white pull over t-shirt, white coat, white pants, white gloves, white shoes with a staff that has a red cross on the top. I can see that the boy is scared, and that Mom Yuna is not really helping.
"Mom, let me try," I say to her before slowly approaching. I set down my staff and with my hands displayed open showing that I have no weapons, before I start to whisper to him. "Hey there, my name," I point to myself, "is Harry," I point to Mom, "She is Yuna," I make sure to enunciate Yuna and do sort of a poking motion so that he understands it is her name.
I actually get a response when he points to himself, "Naruto," He whispers, then curls up on himself.
"Naruto, look at me," I ask, and when he does I continue, "I want to help you, will you let me?" I inch closer, before having to stop as he tightens his hold on himself. "I only want to help you," I take a seat on the ground, "please?"
Naruto looks at me, his eyes, so filled with pain and broken trust, and yet, I can see, he wants to. I carefully, slowly, cast Pray, letting it wash over Yuna, him, and me to show that there was no harm done. He looks at me, and nods his head. I take it as permission to continue, and cast vigor, healing him alone. I am not going to do Cure yet, I don't know how injured he is. After the third casting, he gets enough energy to untie himself, and slowly approaches me. I let him, instinctively knowing I had to be as calm as possible.
He doesn't really talk, just looks at me, viewing me from different angles. I let him, knowing that it is his decision to make. FInally he gives me a hug, and I can't help but hug back. What has the child gone through, to be so distrustful? What people will need to be visited by my family, for hurting someone this bad? Who will suffer the most?
Naruto's POV
I don't believe it, he actually healed me! He wanted to help me, but what about the lady? She hasn't really done anything, beyond accepting what that light did to all of us. Sneaking a glance, I see that she is keeping an eye on us, but also on the surrounding area, expecting something to happen. Does this mean that she will help me as well? What will happen to me now? I ran away from home, I am not going back, but there must be a place for me somewhere. Maybe, I can stay here with him.
He helped me, so I will help him. I heard something about a nindo, and how it is your center as your duties as a ninja, and while I won't be a ninja anymore, I can still have the values of one, and I want to make sure that the boy, no, my brother, who helped me is part of my life. I make a silent promise right here and now, 'I'll keep you safe, and protect you from the evil that always follow me, and I may be selfish, but I don't want to lose you.'
