Chapter 1: Desperate situation
It was a seemingly a normal day with plenty of sunshine and no clouds in the sky. Sasuke Uchiha and Hinata Hyuga have been assigned a B-rank mission of retrieving a teleportation scroll that had been lost somewhere in the deserts of Sunagakure and since some of the shinobi that had been after the scroll were still roaming the deserts for it, their mission had been switched from 'C' to 'B'.
It has been 2 hours since they arrived in the land of sand and Sasuke began to feel restless.
"Have you found anything yet?" he said, refraining himself from growling his question at the rather fidgety girl.
He wasn't very fond of pushy girls but he also didn't like stammering girls either. But at least she wasn't as loud and noisy as Sakura or Ino.
Hinata glanced at him, her Byakugan still active. "I…think…I found it. I see a large aura of chakra about 2 km from here," she spoke, slightly out of breath from the constant running they did.
Sasuke simply sped up, eager to get done with this mission already. He wasn't made for 'C' or 'D' missions.
He needed S-ranked mission if he were to become stronger and kill his brother.
"W-wait," Hinata called and struggled to catch up to him.
It didn't take them long to reach the area Hinata spoke of and the scroll had been buried under the sand behind a large rock that had been jutting out from beneath.
Sasuke had just grabbed it…when she sensed a large amount of chakra approaching them and she had just enough time turn her head. "S-sasuke-"
Her eyes widened to see that Sasuke had already punched the foreign shinobi in his face.
"Behind you!" he shouted and the heiress turned to see a kunai approaching her and she ducked before slamming her palm into the other's chest, causing him to trip backwards.
Unfortunately both thugs were not easily defeated and Sasuke and Hinata's situation worsened when both saw them revealing explosive tags beneath their clothes.
Sasuke's enemy started making hand signs to detonate the bombs and he saw only one way out – he opened the scroll and performed the hand signs imprinted – the last instruction on the scroll being the word of the location they would want to be teleported to.
Hinata took a step back…when she saw from the corner of her eye that a 3rd ninja approached from the right of Sasuke, him being too absorbed in completing the jutsu to notice.
The prodigy had just finished the last sign and opened his mouth to mutter the word 'Konohagakure', when Hinata interrupted him in panic.
"Jump!"
Sasuke whipped his head towards her but all he saw was a blinding white light as it engulfed them.
Their situation got worse, the longer the battle dragged on.
Plasmus and Cinderblock make actually a good team…too bad they were the enemy.
"Don't let Plasmus get a hit on you!" Robin shouted, flipping out of the way of an approaching light post.
Too bad Cyborg was too fixed on Cinderblock and before he could shoot his cannon, pink goo slammed at him from behind, successfully disabling his cannon and sticking him to the asphalt.
Raven used her magic to lift the light post and propel it towards Plasmus as he shot two more globs of goo at Robin this time. Unfortunately, the light post simply sank into his pudding-like skin before shooting it simply out, knocking Raven to the ground.
Starfire approached from above, shooting several starbolts at Plasmus' attacks before being taken by surprise as a car suddenly slammed into her. Robin took out several explosive discs and threw them towards Cinderblock, successfully getting his attention.
Using this distraction, Terra and Beast Boy approached from the air, the sixth titan directing the shape-shifter on a floating rock. The changeling leaped off the rock. "Rock on!" he called with a grin, morphing into an elephant and Terra used her powers to split the ground under Cinderblock in two. The giant tried to escape the fissure but the elephant that slammed against him only accelerated his fall, leaving only Plasmus behind.
Beast Boy appeared from the fissure as a falcon, seeing that his determined leader was already fighting Plasmus. He morphed back to human and both he and Terra were about to assist him…when a bright light shone in the distance. And as soon as it appeared, it vanished.
"Dude, did you see that?" he asked.
"Yeah. Do you know what that could be?" Terra answered with a cocked head before both grinned at the same time, having the same idea.
Aliens!
And not just any aliens but Martians!
Both energetic Titans called to Robin who seemingly had the situation under control as Plasmus fell onto his back. "We'll be right back!"
They had to walk a few crossroads and with the excellent sight of an eagle, the green Titan quickly made out 2 figures that were in a dead end.
"Wonder if they are Martians?" Terra asked excitedly as they hurried inside the dead end and the shape-shifter chuckled.
"I actually wonder if those Martians are really green. At least then I wouldn't be the only one stuck with this color," he joked, even though he secretly felt bad about his look.
"Hey, I gotta warn you. I like green guys. You might get competition," Terra teased, lightly punching him and he blushed a bit while snickering.
But when they reached the end, they stopped immediately with puzzled expressions on their faces.
"Terra? They don't really look like Martians."
"They're humans, Beast Boy," Terra commented and both leaned a bit closer.
An indigo-haired girl and raven-haired boy lay on the asphalt next to each other, unconscious.
"How did they get here? And what happened to them?" Terra wondered aloud and Beast Boy presented her with a theory.
"Don't you see? This is just like those sci-fi movies on TV. They come from the future," he said, changing his voice a little to sound more dramatic.
Terra gave him a skeptical look. "I'm not sure…"
"Look at their clothes. I don't think you'll find something like this anywhere in Jump City – or anywhere at all actually," Beast Boy continued to prove his theory and Terra let out a sigh.
"How about we first bring them to the tower? Maybe they get to themselves when they get enough rest," Terra suggested and the changeling nodded.
Beast Boy morphed into Pterodactyl and picked up the short-haired girl with his talons before lifting into the air while Terra simply lifted the ground under the raven-haired boy and transported him in this way while she floated on a rock herself.
Seeing that the scene of battle was empty, neither enemy nor friend being present, Terra and Beast Boy decided to head for the Tower themselves.
After arriving, they placed them in the infirmary, leaving them to rest and had just exited the room when faced with 4 angry pair of eyes.
"Where have you been?" Raven growled in a low voice.
"We almost lost because of you!" Robin boomed before Terra and Beast Boy placed a finger on their lips.
"Shhh!"
"Seriously?" Cyborg cried in disbelief.
"What the-"
"They're resting! You gotta be quiet!" both said at the same time.
"I do not understand. Who is 'they'?" Starfire asked.
"We found them in an alley. They were knocked out," Beast Boy spoke in a low voice before opening the door to the infirmary, everyone entering with curiosity.
They saw that both were still in dreamland…unaware what they exactly dreamed about.
"Itachi! Where are mother and father?" Sasuke asked, cold fear gripping him before Itachi turned to look at him with his Sharingan, the bloodlust clearly visible in his eyes.
"Give up, Hinata. I see you're suffering because of the main branch of the Hyuuga clan," Neji spoke and Hinata, despite the pain, managed to smile.
"No, Neji! You are the one suffering from the Clan – from being a branch member," she gasped before Neji lashed out at her with an angry growl, going in for the final blow.
But this time, nobody interfered to stop him…
Both snapped open their eyes at the same time, Sasuke sitting up immediately from the shock of his nightmare.
"Stay back!" Raven said suddenly, her hands covered in black.
"What? Why?" Robin asked confused.
"Robin! Look at their eyes! They are no normal humans," she said and after closer inspection, Robin noticed that the girl's eyes were pupil less and had veins bulging out of their sides of her eyes. And the boy had crimson eyes, a strange pattern visible inside.
Sasuke's breaths and beating heart slowly calmed and he took in his surrounding.
This wasn't Konoha!
Hinata must have sent them somewhere else when she told him to jump.
"S-sasuke?" he heard her worried voice and he shifted his view to the people in the room before resting on the indigo-haired girl with the cape and fixed a hateful glare at her.
He wasn't in the mood to fight! He had to get back to Konoha!
Raven took a step back after sensing the amount of hatred directed at them. "This boy…he's not one to mess with," she mumbled and Cyborg turned to her.
"What do you mean? You ok?"
"Nothing's ok if you get on his bad side. I sense a lot of negative energy coming from him…and a lot of power. He's a dangerous one," she whispered.
Sasuke narrowed his eyes at them. Were they planning something with them? Were they enemies?
Well, they weren't shinobi, that was certain.
"Where am I?" he growled.
"What did he say?" Robin asked, not understanding Japanese.
"I may know of a way-" Starfire started, wanting to suggest to use lip contact to learn his language as being a Tamaranian enabled this.
"On it!" Cyborg called, interrupting the alien as his forearm began glowing.
Thinking this was some form of jutsu, Saskue tried one last time to use words before deciding to attack. "Were am I?" she shouted and Hinata flinched.
"I…think…they don't understand us, Sasuke," she mumbled, not liking him raising his voice.
'Where am I?' came the recorded voice of him, in English and Sasuke raised a confused eyebrow.
How did they change his voice? Was this a genjutsu?
Sasuke decided to act and stood on his bed before pulling out a kunai from his pouch, alarming all in the room.
"Jump!"
Sasuke froze – this wasn't Hinata saying this time. It was that hooded girl and he gave her a questioning look.
"You're…in…Jump…City," Raven spoke slowly and Hinata slowly mouthed the words.
Sasuke couldn't take all this confusion anymore and leaped off the bed. Seeing the sudden movement, 4 of the Titans readied for battle, weapons drawn.
Sasuke was unmoving for a second and turned his head to the window before his eyes widened, seeing the tall metal buildings stretch towards the sky.
He ignored the others and looked out of the window, Hinata reluctantly following him before he spoke in a slightly shaky voice.
"Hinata…"
A city with tall buildings stretched across the horizon, separated by a body of water.
This was Jump – Jump City!
"When you said 'jump', we were teleported…to another dimension!"
