Chapter Text
“Taichou! Taichou are you out here?” There was a rustle of leaves and the four other members of ANBU team ONI Bear, Wolf, Dragon and Phoenix came out of the bushes to find their captain Kitsune meditating on the water, beautiful multicolored lights floating around his five year old body. They all watched with wide eyes for a little while and after about ten minutes the lights disappeared into is body and he stood up: “Is it already time for that useless meeting?” The group broke themselves out of their stupor and Wolf said: “Yes it is Kitsune Taichou. Konoha arrived later than they said they would and came with kunoichi despite the rules in the contract.” Kitsune rolled his eyes in knowing and annoyance and they disappeared to the Uzukage tower that was just a front for the royal palace but no one knew about it if they were not from the island nation.
They used a secret entrance and everyone except for the 'Uzukage' jumped and had to pull their weapons but then their eyes widened when the small ANBU captain snapped his fingers and all of their weapons flew into a metal box that closed and sealed itself so it looked completely solid: “You just violated another one of the rules we gave you for this meeting so now the payment you must give us will be doubled.” The 'Uzukage' nodded and said as he cast non-trusting looks at the others in the room and completely ignored Kushina, who was sitting by her husband: “Now what does Konoha want with us?” Kushina was going to say something when a silencing seal appeared over her mouth, the eyes of the small captain glinting behind the mask: “Women have no right to speak here so you would do well to remember that.”
Minato narrowed his eyes and while he was trying to get the seal off of his wife Jiraiya asked: “And what do the kunoichi have to say about this Uzukage-sama? Surely they would be protesting such treatment.” The ANBU team and the 'Uzukage' all laughed and after a moment Wolf said after they had calmed down: “Do you actually think the K...I mean Uzukage would allow a mere woman into the shinobi forces?” All of the kunoichi on the Konoha side bristled with anger and Tsunade asked in a voice that showed her barely controlled anger: “Are you saying that Whirlpool...”
Before she could finish her sentence the small captain appeared in front of her, put a silencing seal on her as well and backhanded her into a far wall: “Silence in our presence woman! Why do you think that we sent Kushina away despite her being of the royal family? She was adamant on joining the shinobi forces no matter what anyone told her, including her father. Her father disowned her and forced her to sign a blood contract that made he sign over all parental rights to any sons she bore and forbid any daughters she had from taking the Uzumaki name. Why do you think that your son was brought here as soon as he was free from your body former Princess, or should I be calling you Mother?”
The eyes of those from Konoha widened and Minato said in a small voice: “My...” the young man looked at Minato and said in a voice that made them all shiver: “Do not talk to me as if you are familiar with me Yondaime-baka. Because of the contract that your useless wife signed you never had any kinds of rights to me.” The small captain went back to his group and then the 'Uzukage' said: “now tell us why you have come here Yondaime and should any of your...ugh! Kitsune-sama I can not do this any longer! Do you think that I can return to my normal duties now?” The small captain put a hand on the leg of the man and said in a kind voice: “Of course you may go and thank you for doing this. It is greatly appreciated.”
The 'Uzukage' bowed to the team and left in a rush, ignoring the Konoha group as they sat in stunned silence. Once they had all gathered their wits Kakashi asked in a respectful voice: “So Kitsune-sama are you going to get the true lea...” “We know why you are here you annoying baka. You and Konoha found out that this useless woman here can no longer bear children so you wished to plead with the leader to return me to Konoha. Well the answer is NO so get out of our country before we are forced to declare war on Fire Country. ROOT!” A group of about forty men appeared and the small captain said: “Escort this group back to the mainland and be sure they take their useless women and female shinobi with them.” “Yes my lord.”
The ROOT group grabbed each member of the Konoha group and left in a water shunshin, the ANBU group disappearing and the small captain going to the palace where he went to his personal rooms. He jumped into the bathtub and cleaned up so he would feel nice and fresh again, his sapphire eyes sparkling in happiness and his whisker marks standing out on his pale skin. He dressed in his sleeping kimono and left his hair loose to dry as he walked to the main bedroom where he walked in to see his grandfather Kyoshiro Uzumaki, or as he was known as by his enemies Demon Eyes Kyo, sitting by the fire reading a book: “Jii-chan I am back from that useless meeting with Konoha."
Kyoshiro looked up from his book and smiled widely, motioning for him to sit at his side. The young boy walked forward and sat down on his lap, sitting back with a content sigh: "How are you doing little one? I am sorry for sending you to the meeting but..." "it is just fine Jii-chan I was bound to run into someone from Konoha sooner or later." The two talked for a little while and during a lull in the conversation the little boy said: "Do you remember how you wished I would not have to be with a woman to continue the line and I would be the last of the Uzumaki clan because of it?" The red eyed man nodded and he continued: "I just found out from Juubi before the meeting and he found a gene that was dormant that no longer is. I am now the first Uzumaki male Barer in 3000 years. So we do not need to rely on a...female to continue the line."
Kyoshiro smiled widely and swung his grandson around in a circle laughing in pure joy: "Oh you have made me so happy my sunshine! Our royal line will continue on...but only with who I deem worthy for you." "Of course Jii-chan. I should tell you good-night now because when the royal council hears about my new status they will want me to take the mark of the Bearer. It is also my fourth birthday so my naming ceremony is at midday." "Good-night my little Sunshine and we will see you in the morning baby." The little boy shuffled sleepily to his room and Kyo sat back to continue reading the Ancient Book of Uzumaki family names, a smile on his face at the continuance of the family line.
The next morning at six the young captain was coming back in from his daily training with his team and some of the ANBU rookies: "My little Sunshine can I come in please?" "Of course you can come in Jii-chan I am only coming in from training.'' The door opened and Kyoshiro came into the room with a medium sized package in hand and a jewelry box in the other: "Go ahead and take a bath but do not put anything other than your bathrobe on." The little boy nodded and went to take a bath while Kyo opened the package that had been in the royal family since the first Male Barer 4000 years ago. It was a gorgeous pristine white Chinese shirt that went to the knees and over the hands with a pair of white gloves to go with it. It also had black pants with white vines and a white rose on the left leg and a pair of white shinobi sandals to complete the little outfit. Once his grandson was dried and dressed in the outfit he combed his long hair and handed him the pair of gloves.
Kyo opened the jewelry box and pulled out a white gold circlet and placed it on his head where it resized to fit, a large ruby heart in the middle twinkling: "Are you ready to go Sunshine?" The little boy nodded and took the offered hand of his grandfather, both knowing that it would be a day where their lives changed for the better.
Chapter 1-Chosen Name New Circumstance
Kyo and his grandson walked into the main royal meeting room, everyone inside gasping and bowing low when they saw the crown prince dressed in clothes that had not been seen in so many years. Once the king was at his throne he turned to face those in the room and put a hand on the shoulder of his grandson, who stood at his side with pride on his face: "Today is a most joyous day for the entire kingdom. Not only is it the fourth birthday of the prince and therefore his naming ceremony but he is the first Uzumaki male bearer in thousands of years so our great line will not end with him as we all feared!" Everyone in the room cheered and then quieted down when Kyo put his hand up to call for silence.
They held the Naming Ceremony for all of Whirlpool to see due to the technological developments they shared with the Outside world but not the Elemental Nations. But at the Marking only the king, his grandson and elder placing the mark were allowed to be present. Said elder also had to say farewell to all he knew because it was an honored tradition for the one to place the Mark to die at the hands of the one receiving the Mark. Once it had been done and the family of the elder had come to claim the body Kyo took his grandson to his bedroom where all of his belongings were placed in sealing scrolls that had been put into a shoulder bag: "I do not like this part of the tradition my Sunshine. You are only four years old and now must leave for seventeen years!" The little boy gave his grandfather a hug and said: "I do not like it either but it has to be done. And I am going to be busy attending the Hidden School in Japan and playing Quidditch. But I am really going to miss you Jii-chan. Be sure to say farewell to the others for me please." Kyoshiro held the little boy tightly and tears fell down his face as his grandson faded away from the Elemental Continent until he was 21 and ready to be king: "Good-bye for now my beloved Sunshine."
In the middle of the large hall meant for meetings and having meals in the hidden training facilities for the Japanese Quidditch team the Shinjuku Shinigami the coach Hoshi and current captain and Seeker Kuro Murasaki were waiting with anticipation. Their allies in Whirlpool kingdom had a boy who was one of the best players that they had ever seen. He was able to play all positions to perfection but he excelled as a Keeper, which what they were sorely lacking as their last one was fired. There was suddenly a flash of light in the room and their jaws dropped when they saw a drop dead gorgeous little boy standing there with a smile on his face: "Greetings to the both of you. Am I to assume that the older gentleman is Coach Hoshi and the other is Captain and Seeker Kuro Murasaki?"
The two shook their heads to clear their thoughts and bowed to him as he did for them: "Why yes we are young man. Are you the young man that King Uzumaki communicated to us about?" "As a matter of fact I am sir. My name is Yukimura Sasuke Naruto Uzumaki, Crown Prince and leader of Whirlpool Nation Military and Shinobi forces. It is a pleasure to meet the both of you." Their jaws dropped once again and Naruto laughed a little. He waved his sleeve covered hand in front of their faces and said: "Are we going to start practice soon or will we be attracting flies instead?" The two shook their heads once again to clear them and then led him through their training facility, Naruto looking around and asking the odd question every now and then.
Once they had finished the tour and were going to practice all of the players widened their eyes when they saw the marks of a Bearer on his bare left shoulder: "Oh dear Kami-sama you are an Uzumaki Male Barer!" Naruto slipped the practice robes on over his outfit and said as he glared at them with his eyes glowing: "I may be a Barer but I am a Shinobi first so do not treat me any different than you do you understand?" All of the players froze in fear and then got down to one knee and said: "Yes my lord." They all stood up again and then went to practice, everyone extremely excited because they may now be able to make it past the semi-finals for the Quidditch World Cup. At their break time for lunch Naruto sat down at a far table and pulled out a scroll that had food written in kanji, everyone watching in awe as he unsealed a bowl of fruit, a bowl of green salad, a small jug of milk and a large wrapped package he put to the side for later.
He said a quick prayer and then started to eat, a look of satisfaction on his face. Duo Maxwell, one of the Beaters sat down across from him and asked in curiosity: "Why are you not eating meat Majesty?" Naruto made a face and once he had finished the bite in his mouth said: "I have never eaten meat before Maxwell-san and I do not intend to start now. I am quite satisfied with my meal as it is thank you." Duo nodded and moved back to the table he was at before, everyone going back to their previous conversations. Once Naruto was done his dishes disappeared and he pulled out a flask of steaming green tea then unwrapped a large egg custard tart that made Quatre Winter one of their Chasers drool as it was his favorite treat.
Naruto pulled out two plates and cut the large tart in half, putting each half on one of the plates. He hopped off of his chair, went to where Quatre was sitting and held out one of the plates: "Would you like the second half of my dessert Winter-san? It is far too large for me to finish on my own." Quatre took the plate and thanked him quietly, Naruto nodding with a small smile on his face as he went back to his table to eat his tart and drink his tea, Quatre eating the pastry with a big smile on his face. Once Naruto had finished eating he stood up and bowed to the others before he went to their practice pitch. He sat down against the middle goal post and pulled out another scroll that had a package underneath it and a letter from his grandfather. He broke the seal on the letter and started to read: 'My dearest Sunshine it has been less than a day and we already miss you terribly. The part of the tradition where a Barer must leave until they are 21 is utter trash but we cannot change the laws.'
'Dragon has been placed as your temporary replacement but he does not want to be called Taichou as it is your rightful title. Konoha is livid because we refuse to sent you to, according to them, "where you rightfully belong". I showed them the contract that whore Kushina signed and they knew that nothing could be done about it as it is signed in blood and therefore unbreakable. Now to change the subject, I have found you two suitable mates but they are a little older than you may be expecting. One of them is called Maximillius Maddison and he is a budding Potions Master in the Isles. He is 21 years old and is very anxious to meet you. The other is an older gentleman by the name of Nasta Delericey, a dragon tamer for a dragon reserve and best friend of Maximillius. He is also very anxious to meet you as well. He is 27 years old and both of them will be at your first game soon. We will all be waiting for your first letter Sunshine and I love you very much.-Your Jii-chan Kyoshiro "Demon Eyes Kyo" Uzumaki.'
Naruto wiped a tear from his eyes and enlarged the package from the metal smiths he always visited when he was on leave. He removed the top and his eyes widened when he saw an absolutely gorgeous broom that appeared to be made of mythril and adamantium. The twigs were made of finely worked mythril and had special runes on the handle so that it would always be able to fly and that he would be the only one who would be able to control it. He then moved the broom out of the way and his jaw dropped when he saw the three Deathly Hallows nestled in the velvet lining under the broom. He picked up the small scroll and read: 'Sunshine, as you know these are the Deathly Hallows but what is not commonly known is that the three brothers were our ancestors so they are your birthright. Also included are the vault keys to their vaults and others we inherited and a letter saying that all rights and titles should be given over to you.-Love Jii-chan.'
The little boy smiled softly and put the chain with the keys around his neck and hid it beneath his shirt. He picked up the cloak and ran a hand down the silvery fabric, a happy feeling coming from said cloak. He picked up the ring with the Resurrection Stone and placed it on his left ring finger, said stone pulsing happily as well. He then looked at the wand and carefully took it out, a warm feeling going through him and a ghostly hand brushing his cheek and ruffling his hair with the song of a phoenix trilling through the air. Naruto smiled and put the things back into his pocked, the ring shining on his hand, the cloak on a charm on his bracelet and the Elder Wand hidden in a holster on his leg. Naruto walked back happily and said with a smile on his face: "These next few years are going to be very fun indeed."
11 Years Later...
It was an unseasonably sunny day in England and the wizarding population was out in droves. The English National Quidditch team had made it to the finals of the World Cup and was going up against the undefeated Shinjuku Shinigami of Japan.11 years previously the team had gotten a new Keeper and they had won the Cup every year ever since. Said Keeper had a perfect record because in his eleven years of playing he had NEVER let anyone score a single quaffle, including the penalty shots. Walking through the campgrounds was Head Auror James Potter with his wife Lily, their son Harry and two of his best friends Fred and George Weasley. James had managed to get them some tickets for the Top Box from Ludo Bagman and they were all very excited for the game to start. Down the way from their tent Duo was wandering with a henge tag on his chest so he would not be mobbed looking for the mates of his friend: "Max! Nasta where did the two of you go this time? I have your two tickets for the Top Box!"
A few feet from the Potter tent Duo was looking around the tents for the lost mates of his friend and was so distracted he crashed into James, who fell into the tent, his glasses flying off and the frames tearing off the tag Duo had been wearing, making his disguise melt away: "Oh Kami I am so sorry about that." Duo quickly hopped off of him and James put his glasses back on, his eyes widening when he saw who had crashed into him: "D...d...Duo Maxwell!" Duo widened his eyes and looked down to see that the tag that he had been wearing was now torn and lying in two pieces on the floor: "SHIT!"
He jumped up as did James and ran out of the tent, only to run back in a few moments later, raving fans running past the tent looking for him yelling in excitement. James smiled but then his eyes went wide when Duo pulled the latest Stark phone out of his pocket and pushed a few buttons. After talking in rapid Japanese for a few moments Duo turned to James as the others came into the room and asked: "Would you mind if I waited here until one of the others is able to come for me with a new tag? I can't go outside right now without getting mobbed or something even worse." They all nodded blankly and Duo smiled widely at them before sinking to his knees to the side of the tent flaps, playing a game on his phone and not answering any of their questions as he did so. After what seemed like ages the tent flap moved a little and two enormous looking men peeked in, Duo putting his phone away and jumping up: "Max! Nasta! My tag fell off again and tore while I was wandering around looking for you." The two laughed at him for a second and Nasta bowed his head as Max helped with the new tag: "Thank you for helping our friend. He can be a little air headed and clumsy at the best of times." "OI!"
James and Lily shook their heads and Lily said as the three boys still stood speechless: "It was no trouble at all. But what may we ask was that tag? We have never seen anything like that before and normally phones don't work around so much magic." Duo picked up the torn tag and the three just inclined their heads slightly before leaving, no one saying a word and James staring after them: "Well that was just plain rude." Harry finally broke out of his stupor and said to his father: "Dad, the Japanese are extremely private people and according to the papers and magazines the Shinigami never willingly associate with women." The twins came forward as well and said: "Their keeper is..." "...from the Whirlpool Kingdom..." "And they don't hold women in any kind of regard at all." Harry nodded and said: "The Crown Princess was even disowned and was made to sign a blood contract saying that her sons would have to be turned over to Whirlpool and daughters would be forbidden from taking the royal name or even crossing the borders. At least that is what the book Blaise has says anyways."
Back at the stadium all of the players were in the locker rooms but Naruto was in a private changing room that the team and his mates had insisted he have. Over the years Naruto had gone from a four year old adorable child to an absolutely gorgeous and to die for young man of nearly sixteen. His skin was tan and flawless except for his two tattoos and the whisker marks on each of his cheeks. His blonde hair was down to his waist and was braided and kept in a bun on the back of his head during his games so it would not get in the way. His deep blue eyes were glowing like pure jewels and he still wore the white outfit from before that had actually grown with him and the pendant he wore on his forehead always glowing happily. He also still wore the Resurrection Stone on his hand and never let it leave him in case someone tried to steal it like they once did in Germany with the cloak: "Yuki-chan are you decent love?" "Of course I am love, please come in Max."
The door opened and Max came in, said man having to duck so his 6'8" frame would fit through the door, a bouquet of roses in one hand and a smile on his face: "I came to wish you luck Yuki-chan. Nasta would have come in with me but he is in the other room lecturing Duo because he destroyed his tag again." Naruto gave his mate a deep kiss and when they finally pulled apart he asked: "Would you please help me with my hair today Max? I know how much you love to play with it." Max grinned widely and went digging through the hair care bag his love always had with him, looking for his favorite brushes and all of the things that would prevent his hair from escaping the covering and get in the way of his playing. The door opened again a few minutes later and Nasta came into the room, his hazel/green eyes lighting up when he lay eyes of his mate and best friend laughing together.
He closed the door and gave Naruto a kiss: "Hello Caru how are you doing today? Are you nervous at all?" Naruto smiled a little and said: "Well maybe a little bit. This is the first time we have been in England after all. But there is also something that Master Shin told me the last time we spoke."The two looked at him and he continued: "They want me to represent the Hidden Academy in the upcoming Triwizard Tournament. Durmstrang refused to participate because Headmaster Snape and the school cannot stand Hogwarts or its Headmaster, which I cannot blame them for." The three of them talked for about twenty minutes and then it was time to go the main arena so Naruto kissed his two mates, picked up his broom and waved to his mates before joining his team so that they could make a grand entrance as they always did for all of their fans.
Back in the highest area of the arena James, Lily, Harry, Fred and George were sitting happily in the Top Box talking: "Harry! Fred! George!" The three turned around and smiled when they saw their other two friends Blaise Zabini and Draco Malfoy, the elder Malfoys talking with James and Lily, a baby girl on the hip of Lucius. They had been talking for awhile when the door opened and the Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge came in with a young man who turned out to be the Japanese Minister of Magic. The younger man was ignoring the older one which annoyed Fudge to no end. The door opened once again and Max came in with Nasta right behind him, everyone staring at the two because of how huge that they were. They sat down on the farthest side of the box after greeting the Japanese minister and started chatting about how they thought that the game was going go be: "So do you think that this game will be as bad as the one against the HolyHead Harpies?" "Max, I don't think any game can be as bad as the one against the Harpies. I mean a four and a half hour game where the Harpies lost 1100-0? I doubt Murakami or Hoshi would allow such a thing again." The two talked for a little longer until Ludo Bagman came in to introduce the teams.
Once the English team had been introduced the Japanese minister cancelled the spell on Bagman and used one himself: "And now my dear Japanese fans allow me to announce the seven men who make up our glorious world champions the undefeated Shinjuku Shinigami! Introducing our Chasers Kira Yamato, Quatre Winter and Shin Asuka!" A large flame in the shape of a dragon appeared in the air and they burst through it, showering the fans in gold dust. "And introducing out Beaters Duo Maxwell and Hiro Euie!" The time a flames shaped like a phoenix appeared and they burst through: "And introducing our new captain and seeker Setsuna F. Seie Yamato!" The cheers grew louder as Setsuna appeared in a ball of light: "And now put your hand together for our Keeper YuSa!" The stadium nearly burst at the seams with cheers as a large frost rose appeared in the middle of the arena and burst into small crystals, Naruto appearing with his white mask over his face so no one would see his actual face.
Once the introductions were over the official threw the quaffle into the air and the game began. In the Top Box George adjusted his Omnioculars and then gasped after a moment: "T...the Shinigami are riding Lightning Bolts!" "B...but we thought that only two were ever made and then deemed too dangerous for production!" The Japanese minister swallowed the dango he was eating and said in near perfect English: "Actually young man eight of the were made and YuSa purchased them all. He adjusted them a little and with months of practice the team was able to use them without injury. He sent the remaining brooms along with all information on them to his grandfather so that no one would be able to produce them again." Fudge wanted to talk with him about the brooms as well but the young man ignored him again and went to sit with Nasta and Max, both of them keeping a good eye on their mate. Two and a half hours later the Japanese fans were cheering and celebrating while the others were in complete shock when Setsuna caught the Snitch and ended the game 890-0.
A few minutes later the door opened and the Shinigami came in with proud looks on their faces as the Japanese minister presented them the cup proudly: "You have once again made Japan proud boys congratulations." They all bowed and held the Cup high and making the stadium burst into cheers once again. Ludo went up to the team and tried to put an arm around the shoulder of YuSa for a photo opportunity but said young man flicked his wrist and had his wand pointed at the older man, who was now on the floor cowering in fright at the wand: "Do not touch me you gambling addicted peasant." Ludo stuttered a little and was going to say something but fell silent when he saw the mask glinting with the promise of pain and agony should he utter a word. The team bowed to their Minister of Magic, nodded slightly to Fudge and left the Box with the Cup, the entire box except for the recently departed Max and Nasta silent and Fudge stuttering about how they were so rude and that the other Minster tried to make a fool of him.
Now I hope that all who read this like it and please let me know what you think! Kill It With Fire
