The Sage of Equestria

Naruto and the others were at Mt. Myoboku. They were standing in front of Shima, and Fukasaku as they explained some things. "Okay listen up." said Fukasaku, "You will be given names to fit in with theirs. Naruto you shall be known as Orange Citrus. Sakura you shall be known as Cherry Blossom. And Kakashi you will be known as Thunderclap."

"Do we have to?" whined Naruto.

"Yes." Fukasaku told him, "You don't want to raise suspicion. Now follow me." With that Naruto, Sakura, and Kakashi followed Fukasaku through the dense jungle paths of Mt.Myoboku until they reached a small shrine with a small indention filled with water in front of it.

"This is the Enshinshui." said Fukasaku, "It will bring you to your destination. The castle is in the side of a mountain so you can't miss it. Good luck." With that Naruto, Sakura, and Kakashi jumped into the pool.

"So tomorrow we meet our guards." announced Twilight.

"Who cares." said Dash, "They're just gonna be kill joys like every other guard."

"Dash!" exclaimed Twilight, "The guards work very hard to keep everypony safe. You shouldn't say things like that about them."

"Keep it down in there!" one of the guards called out.

"See what I mean Twilight?" said Rainbow Dash, "The other guards are probably just like them."

"You don't know that." Twilight said, "You haven't even met them."

"Ah hate to disagree with you Twi, but I don't think they'd really be guards if they weren't." said Applejack.

"I'm sure they're nice." said Fluttershy.

"Yes, and I wouldn't mind having a big, strong stallion watching over me." Rarity swooned.

"Do you think they'll like a welcome party?" asked Pinkie.

"Doubt it." said Dash. Twilight let out a sigh.

"I hope the Princess made the right choice." she whispered to herself before drifting off to sleep.

Naruto, Sakura, and Kakashi pulled themselves up out of a pond, covered in algae. "Ugh. Why did we have to come out of a pond." complained Sakura, shaking herself off. Kakashi and Naruto did the same, and then Kakashi huddled them up.

"Okay both of you take one of these bracelets." he told them. Naruto, and Sakura took a bracelet each.

"What are these for?" asked Naruto.

"These bracelets will disguise us as ponies while we wear them." he told them, "Fukasaku gave them to me before we left. Now put them on." They did as they were told, and immediately there was a poof of smoke, and they turned into ponies. Naruto was a bright orange like his clothes, with a spiky orange mane, and the seal for his cutie mark.

Sakura was turned into a hot pink with a lighter pink mane, and a medical cross with cherry blossoms in the four corners as her cutie mark. Kakashi was gray with a lighter gray mane, and a mirror as his cutie mark. Kakashi spoke up. "See that castle over there?" he asked them.

They both nodded. "That's our destination." continued Kakashi, "If we move swiftly we can reach it within the hour. There we'll meet the Princess and her student. Got it?"

"Aye aye." Naruto, and Sakura said simultaneously. With that they took off, jumping through the trees. Soon enough they reached the entrance of the castle, where they were stopped by guards in golden armour.

"Halt." one ordered, "What is your business here?"

"We have a meeting with the Princess and her student." Kakashi told him. He snorted in disbelief.

"Nice try." he said, "But the Princess has ordered for there to be no visitors today."

"Sorry to waste your time. We'll be on our way now." said Kakashi, pushing Naruto and Sakura away from them.

"Kakashi what are you doing?" asked Naruto.

"We can't just cause a scene." Kakashi told him, "Obviously the Princess is testing our skills."

"So what do we do then?" asked Sakura.

"We're going to circle around the castle, and then sneak onto the top." Kakashi told them, "From there we'll make our way into the throne room. Got it?" Naruto, and Sakura nodded. Soon enough, the plan had worked perfectly, and they were now on top of the roof.

"So how do we get in?" asked Sakura.

"I say we just barge in." Naruto said, jumping down.

"Ugh, Naruto!" yelled Sakura.

"We better go after him." said Kakashi.

Twilight and her friends stood restless in the throne room. They had been waiting there for an hour. "How much longer Princess?" asked Twilight.

"It shouldn't be too much longer." Celestia told her, "They should get here soon." As if on cue, three windows burst inwards, and three ponies fell 20 feet to the floor, and landed unfazed.

"Wha- bu- how?!" stuttered Twilight. Celestia quickly regained her composure, and spoke to them.

"Ah. I see you have arrived." she said, "Tell me, what are your names?"

"I'm Thunderclap." said Kakashi.

"I'm Cherry Blossom." said Sakura.

"And I'm Naru- I mean Orange Citrus." Naruto said, glad he caught himself.

"Very well. I am Princess Celestia." she said, introducing herself, "And this is my prized pupil, Twilight Sparkle, and her friends, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Applejack, and Fluttershy."

"It's nice to meet you." said Kakashi. They were still in too much of a shock to say anything.

"Well, enough of that." said Celestia, "Are you ready for your test?"

"Bring it on!" Naruto said.

"Very well then. I will call for my guards, and I will assess on how many you can take out." Celestia told them, "Guards seize these intruders!" Suddenly the doors burst open, and the room flooded with royal guards. Naruto, and Kakashi jumped up into the air, taking care of some pegasi while Sakura punched the ground with her enormous strength, shaking the castle to it's foundation, and stunning some of the unicorns, and earth ponies.

Then Naruto made himself five clones to help him fight. "Wow." said Celestia, impressed.

"What?" asked Twilight.

"Well cloning magic is among the most advanced to master. My limit is three, but the most recorded is 10 by Starswirl the bearded." said Celestia, "Still, though, five is impressive."

"Amazing!" said Twilight, shocked at this information. Not too much longer Sakura and Kakashi were hit with stun spells, and Naruto got buried under a large pile of guards. Just when they thought it was over, and Celestia was about to call her guards off, they heard a shout from under the guards.

"Rasengan!" came the voice of Naruto. A blue light burst out of the group of guards, and they were sent flying across the room, leaving Naruto in the middle of an abundant source of magic. There was even more than what Twilight had used when she saved Ponyville from an ursa minor.

Then Naruto let out another shout, "Shadow clone jutsu!" Then the room was covered in smoke. When it cleared, what they saw, surprised all of the occupants. 100 Naruto were rearing, and ready to go.

"THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!" yelled Celestia, loosing her composure. Soon the Narutos had beaten all of the guards, and then dissipated in a poof of smoke. Naruto then walked up to in front of the Princess. "W-Who are you?" she asked with just the barest tinge of fear in her voice.

Naruto shrugged and said, "Orange Citrus."
