Dimensional Matchmaker

By Dart Tension

Author's Note: Hey everyone! Just letting you know this is my first fanfic and this is dedicated to Naruto and Sakura. I plan on making it multiple chapters and might get further depending on reviews. Right now it's summer vacation so I have plenty of time for this story! Although it takes my time away from animating and another story I'm typing solely for my own amusement. Also this is sort of supposed to resemble the anime in a sense of the specials that happen in the beginning and such like the anime does from time to time. RECENTLY UPDATED! GRAMMAR FIXED IN MOST PLACES!

p.s. (Dart Tension is not my real name)

Disclaimer: Naruto and other related characters do not belong to me… so don't sue. Dart Tension does belong to me, so I will sue if he is used. (However if asked nicely I may allow ;) )

Prologue (a.k.a. Enter: Dart Tension!)

Before Episode Special!!!

Sometime after time-skip

Naruto- Hello special viewers! If you are just tuning in, last episode it was hinted that I was going to confess my love to the lovely, intelligent, beautiful, Sakura-chan!

(Naruto's eyes sparkle)

Sakura- I can't wait!

(Naruto becomes shocked)

Naruto- Ahh!!!!!! Sakura-chan! W-When did you get here!?

Sakura- At the start of the special! Baka! But anyways the suspense is killing me!

Naruto- Yes I know! In fact I feel like confessing my love to you now! bonk!

(Naruto gets head bashed by Sakura's fist)

Sakura- Baka! Don't get impatient!

Naruto- (whispers) Ouch Sakura-chan that hurt.

(Rest of rookie 9 and Gai's team poof in cloud of smoke)

All- Yes Naruto-san we can't wait either!

Neji- Everyone has waited for this for a while.

Ino- I was wondering when this was going to happen!

Shikamaru- Yeah… Me too.

Lee- This will be a fine moment in Konoha!

(Naruto and Sakura blush)

Naruto- (whispers) Hey Sakura-chan. Let's start the show already so we can get away from everyone.

Sakura- (whispers back) Agreed.

???- Yeah I can't wait either!

(The camera zooms out to find a young man facing the group in a cheerful smile)

Everyone- (Gets scared from surprise)

Naruto- (Becoming angry from shock) Who the hell are you?!

Dart- My name is Dart Tension! (huge smile) Also I have some bad news!

Everyone- What?!

Dart- Yeah! Turns out the animators didn't finish the episode so it won't be aired. (smile drops) Sorry.

(Everyone falls to floor in shock)

(Sakura gets up dragging Naruto)

Sakura enraged- I WAS SUPPOSED TO GET NARUTO IN THIS EPISODE! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I'VE WAITED FOR THIS! I WAS SUPPOSED TO GET A HUG, A KISS, OR SOMETHING! (all while pointing at Naruto shaking him like a rag doll who is unconscious from said news)

(Sakura starts shaking Dart furiously by collar while lifted him up three feet off the ground)

Dart- Sa..Sakuu-ur-urr-aaa-chan! I…I…w-w-w-illlll…make…. It up..to…y-you!!!

(Sakura stops shaking Dart)

Dart- I'll make it up to you and Naruto-neesan!

Naruto- We still need an episode to air!

Dart- Don't worry let's just go to how we met! Tada!!! (holds up film) Roll please! (throws off screen)

(Naruto leans towards Sakura)

Naruto- Who is this guy?

Sakura- I don't know but he better make up for us not being able to snuggle!!! (blushes)

Naruto- Aww… Sakura-chan I love you too. (whispers) And we can do that right now.

(Naruto expects punch)

Sakura- (blushes even more) Well at least one good thing came out of this. (hugs Naruto passionately)

(screen fades)

Chapter 1: The spiky, black haired, youth. Dart Tension!

A teenaged boy lay in his bed while doing various activities on his laptop computer. Lately he has been severely depressed mainly from his family. His parents had been giving him a rough time over an "incident" that happened lately.

A month earlier he had cursed at his parents after being lectured about school. They later found a note in his bedroom that showed what he would do to them in their sleep, which involved a lot of torture and name calling. Fearing for their son they talked to him, discussing his future. They even considered having him being institutionalized at a mental hospital. However they let it go, but never looked at their son again the same way. It wasn't his fault anyways. Truthfully he probably should have gone to a mental hospital, for something lurked in his head.

Nevertheless, he didn't care. He simply just went from website to website on his computer. It was midnight and he was currently on Youtube watching a few Naruto episodes subbed. He had decided to go on a marathon each day that week since it was summer and he had all the time to watch Naruto.

He was very obsessed with the show and thought it was great. He looked forward to watching it or discussing it with friends online or at his house. He would also read the manga version too if he ever had the money to buy an issue. Another thing he found himself obsessed with was his loyalty to Naruto and Sakura's relationship. He had to admit it wasn't a normal one and it was quire humorous, but at the same time, the character Naruto, set an example for him always desperately trying to win the love of Sakura while protecting her.

It wasn't that original but it wasn't common in other anime or manga he had seen. On the other hand, in another window on his computer was his prized story. He had no title for it. It was simply labeled "Dart Tension". That was his name, but he thought it was a cool name that was fit for a superhero; which the protagonist in his story was. He had various powers. Right now he had just finished typing up the chapter where, Dart, had discovered some of his powers and was trying to get used to them. He left that passage in the center of the screen and surprisingly, no other information besides his powers was on that page. Saving it and minimizing, Dart went back to his marathon. He had left it right before team seven got back to Konoha. Before pressing the play button, a voice questioned him inside his head.

"Watching that cursed show again? Do you have anything better to do?" the voice questioned. "Vertilous, I see you are awake." Silence from the voice. Vertilous was a demon, his demon. It was an entity that had conjured up in his mind a while ago. It claimed to be a real demon. Dart thought it was just some kind of split personality or something. But at times, the voice almost convinced him it was a demon, taking control of his actions temporarily. Hence the incident a month before.

"Well I could go to sleep and then we both would have to just lay here motionless doing nothing." Dart said. "Fine! Do what ever the hell you want!!!" The voice grumbled. He loved pissing the demon off especially when it "awoke". It was funny. He called the demon Vertilous for some reason; he didn't know why. Vertilous also showed a similarity Dart had with Naruto. A demon dwelling inside of him. It probably wasn't real. But Dart could relate to Naruto in a sense. This was one out of many reasons why Dart idolized the fictional character.

Calming the voice in his head, Dart resumed to watching the rest of the episode. Laughing every other second at Naruto's antics. They were about to reach Konoha when something Dart would never comprehend happened.

Appearing out of thin air, a small, emanating ball of light popped out in front of Dart's face. As if it had a life of its own. A small entity had just appeared in the form of a glowing orb in between Dart and his computer screen. As if time had stopped, Dart looked at the glowing ball in front of him. It was not of this world or maybe this universe. It had to be something from the future or something that belonged to a being far immense than Dart. If there was a God, then this was him throwing a grenade at Dart's face. What ever the hell it was, it was still going to do what it was supposed to do. It then expanded to a large, black hole. As if trying to suck everything in it and merged with Dart's screen. Instead of tearing the damn thing apart it just kind of went in the screen. Sucking wildly, the black rift in time and space started dragging his arms towards the screen.

"Vertilous!" This better not be your doing!" "You think I would pull something like this? Hurry up and do something before we both…" Too late. Dart was swooped into the dimension to wherever fate had taken him.

Meanwhile, in an alternate universe

Four ninja walk down a dirt road enjoying each other's company.They were returning from a mission which had threatened their very lives. However they returned home content and unaffected as if though they dealt with this sort of thing everyday. Which they did because they were ninja and would do what ever they had to for their village. The group was lead by Hatake Kakashi, followed by Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura, and last, but least, Uzumaki Naruto.

They were returning from the land of waves on the way back to their beloved Konoha. Nearing the end of their trip, a very eager Sakura speaks. "Hey Sasuke-kun! Want to go on a date when we get back to the village?" Sasuke continues walking and doesn't reply. Sakura takes back her question feeling disappointed. Naruto speaks, "Sakura-chan! I'll go on a date with you! Please?!" Sakura looks at her teammate. He was wearing his orange, slightly baggy jacket with matching orange pants. It resembled a jumpsuit in way. She also looked at his conspicuous, blonde, round, spiky hair. It stuck out from the rest of him, but what stood out the most from his body were his bright, blue eyes. She had to admit they were beautiful and seemed to glisten when he was happy. He had a very huge grin on his face almost lit up from the answer to come. "Naruto! What makes you think I'd go on a date with you!" a very angry Sakura replies.

Naruto backs up in the fear of being punched in the face as his smile disappears. Naruto looked at his companion, still in fear, he once again put the image of her body in his head. She wore a type of pink dress/shirt with buttons down her chest. The dress fell to her knees but had shorts underneath that resembled spandex. Her lower half of her dress was outlined with white and had a circle on her back. He looked at her long pink hair. It was what made her very unique and pretty. But the thing about her body that made Naruto go wild was her eyes. They were as green as the grass on a bright sunny day and combined with her pink hair, her face glistened with beauty. Then his observations stopped as a pummeling fist sent him back to earth.

Kakashi sighs, for he had already gotten used to his students daily routine. Sasuke remained speechless. Then Kakashi's reflexes kicked into action. Luckily he was not reading his favorite book, Icha Icha Paradise; otherwise he wouldn't have noticed the huge black cloud appearing in the sky. It was a normal sunny day so that was not normal. Lightning seemed to erupt from the cloud in all directions and wind blew heavily. After a minute, Kakashi's students finally took notice of the activity in the sky.

Sakura, who had been strangling Naruto, turned away and looked at the cloud that seemed to hover only above them. Then the cloud receded and for a split second, Kakashi could have sworn that a small black hole was in the middle of the cloud causing the ruckus. Seeming to disappear in the rift, the cloud vanished, but was instantly replaced by a small hapless figure that came falling down around their area. Naruto finally spoke and yelled "Kakashi sensei what is that?!" while pointing at the object that was coming straight for them at a high speed. Everyone jumped back about ten feet right before the mysterious "meteorite" crashed into the ground making a minor crater and had made dirt and dust blow everywhere.

When the smoke started to clear, everyone tensed. The figure was moving. Everyone grabbed a kunai knife ready for battle…until they noticed that the falling star was only a kid. Well a teenager about the age of Sakura, Sasuke, and Naruto. Everyone put their knives down confused. Sakura questioned "Who is that!" Everyone looked closer. It was a young boy with jet black, spiky hair. It resembled Sasuke's hair but was not as long and was tamer, but as it reached to edge of the spikes, they became wilder. He was a little tan and his face (which Sakura thought was cute looking) was in complete stress and anger. The boy was in some pajamas and no socks on and looked like he had just come over from a sleep over.

The boy then seemed to be shouting and cursing in a language they could not understand. Team 7 looked at each other confused and began conversing. "That was strange," Sasuke muttered. Naruto replied "We should check to see if he's a foreign spy, dattebayo!" Sakura for once agreed and said "We should just leave him alone. He might cause trouble!" Naruto hearing this replies in glee, "Sakura-chan, I'm glad you see things my way!"

Sakura's fist makes its way towards Naruto's head. Bang! "Baka! Stop doing that! I'm just saying we should leave him alone." Kakashi sensei intervened. "I guess we have no choice… we have to take him to the village for inspection of injury and on suspicion of being a spy."

-----

Dart stood up from his hole. "Ouch!!! Damn it!!! What the hell!!!!!! Arghh!!!! This shouldn't happen to me!!!" Dart looked around himself. He was surrounded by a forest. "God damn it!!!!! Now where the hell am I?!!!!! God this is just great!" Dart looked down at himself. He was still in his pajamas. "Oh! You have to be freaking kidding me! Now I'm in the forest with my pajamas on! Wow! I must be extremely lucky!"

Dart then noticed he was not alone. There were four people whispering to each other. He looked at them. The first to speak was a boy in black hair, then someone with very familiar blonde hair… 'Strange' Dart thought to himself. Then a girl in bright pink hair talked. 'Now that's just very coincidental!' Dart thought to himself.

The group was about ten feet away and there was still smoke so it was very obscure and difficult for Dart to identify them. They were also speaking in a different language so Dart could not understand what they were saying, however the language was also familiar. Then the girl with pink hair punched the blonde in the head yelling, "Baka!" Wait he knew that word.

Dart's mind snapped. 'No way!' The grey haired man spoke last and then turned to Dart noticing they were being watched. 'Oh my god!!! Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, Kakashi? Man this is awesome! I must be dreaming!!!' Dart leapt from the crater and assaulted the group… in a very fan boyish way. He paraded them with questions even though they could not understand him. Even though he couldn't understand a single word they replied. He kept talking out of excitement.

-----

Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke were caught by surprise and when the kid was in their faces and kept throwing foreign words at them. They felt heavily pressured and shocked, even Naruto, and had a hard time recovering, until Kakashi managed to tie up the boy and throw him over his back. They all let a sigh of relief and walked home with the boy talking nonstop until sometime before they reached the gates of Konoha.

"Jeez about time he shut up 'tebayo! Who the hell is this guy?" Naruto whispered to Sakura and Sasuke. "Hey Kakashi, don't you know like multiple languages or something?" Sasuke asked. Kakashi turned around with a now sleeping Dart on his back, who had passed out from fatigue. "Yes I do, but his is nothing I've ever heard of before. We'll report him to the Hokage. Surely he will have a language specialist." Kakashi said.

Upon reaching the giant gates of Konoha, team seven headed towards the Hokage building where the Hokage resided. Walking up the winding stairs, team seven became more curious of this boy. Kakashi knocked on the room where the Hokage usually did his work. "Come in!" a voice yelled from inside. Opening the door, Kakashi walked into the room with Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke behind him.

"Oh, Kakashi! I see you have returned from your mission. Safely I hope," Sandaime said quietly. Then he looked up from his studies and noticed the boy on Kakashi's back. "Who is that?" "We were hoping you could help us. He speaks a different language, but it's nothing I've ever heard before." Kakashi stated. The Hokage nodded, "I see… Send in Jin!" the Hokage yelled into the next room. A couple minutes later, a ninja in brown hair and in similar robes of the Hokage came in. He must have been a part of the council. The Hokage nodded to him and said to Kakashi, "So tell us what happened from the beginning."

Team seven all gave their part of their story on the events that happened within their trip home. After hearing their story, the Hokage simply said again, "I see. This is not a normal boy. Jin, see if you can understand him, whatever it takes." Kakashi then tapped Dart in the forehead waking him up instantly.

The boy woke up irritated. He looked around to examine his surroundings. Still tied he began yelling in anger, but no one in the room would answer. Jin, the language specialist, shook his head in surprise. "He speaks in a tongue that does not belong in this world. I can't understand him; however, I may be able to make him speak our language." Jin walked up to Dart and then started forming complicated hand signs. Everyone stood back. After a few seconds Jin stopped his patterns and placed his hand on Dart's head. A bright flash struck his head and Dart jerked his head back in response.

"Damn! That hurt! God, why do you people keep giving me that look?! The people that I idolize and I can't understand a damn word you guys say. Except maybe a couple… but that's not the point," Dart yelled, "I would think that even the great Sandaime would understand me, but no. Instead I remain an alien to this world unable to communicate with people I would like to know! You even hit me in the head! Man I knew I should have just went to bed. Damn dimensional portal, whatever the hell that thing was." Dart finally let out a sigh and ended his cursing rant. "We know what you are saying now." The Hokage said. Dart froze. "Hey I can understand you! What the hell?"

Finally Sakura went up to Dart and hit him on the head. "Stop cursing you baka!" "Ouch that stings! Now I know what Naruto has to be put up with!" Sakura was about to hit him again when Kakashi stopped her. "How do you know so much about us? Sandaime, Naruto, Sakura and her anger? Explain now." Kakashi demanded. Dart knowing he had no choice told his story from the moment he entered his room at home. Answering many questions, he stopped. "I know it's hard to believe, but it's the truth! I would never do anything to this village! Your younger genin could probably take me down!" The Hokage taking all of this, thought. Feeling no bad intentions in the boy, the Hokage said, "Fine." "What?" Dart asked. "You will stay in this village then. Seeing as how there is no sure way of getting you home, you will have to become a part of this village. Meaning you have to contribute and become a ninja."

"What!?" team seven yelled out except Kakashi. Kakashi felt the Dart was harmless so he didn't complain. The Hokage continued, "You will be trained with Kakashi and his team because they found you. After an exam of your potential, you can become a genin since you are a special case." Dart complained, "But I never had any type of ninja training whatsoever and have not trained as long as Naruto, Sakura, or Sasuke." "Well you will still be in their company until so. Do not worry. I feel you are special. Kakashi you are dismissed." "Wait! Where am I going to live?" Dart asked.

The Hokage had not thought about this and began to think up an answer. After a minute, he had the perfect solution. "You will stay with Naruto." Dart didn't answer. 'Cool.' Naruto spoke "What are you serious? He can't live with me! I mean I live by myself!" "Exactly," the Hokage replied. Then Naruto thought about this situation. 'Well I guess it would be nice to have a roommate,' he thought. "Sweet! Me and you are roommates now!" Dart said with a grin on his face and put his arm around Naruto's shoulder as if though they had been buddies for years. Sakura thought to herself 'I actually feel sorry for Naruto. I would hate to be stuck with him for the whole day.

-----

It was still noon and Kakashi had gone to go on his own business leaving his team on the busy streets of Konoha. Normally Sakura and Sasuke would have gone home, but they were curious about Dart and decided to stay with Naruto, helping him give a tour of the Konoha. After about two hours, they had covered everyplace he needed to know. He know knew where a lot of places were now including the academy, the Hokage statues, the training grounds, and they stopped at one of Naruto's favorite restaurants, Ichiraku Ramen. Everyone hungry, they decided to eat there much to Naruto's delight.

"Yes! Ramen, I can't wait to dig in!" Naruto said with a big smile. "Wait Naruto! We have a guest, why don't you buy him a bowl?" Sakura said with demanding look on her face. "Oh how could I forget Sakura-chan?" Naruto ordered two bowls of ramen, one for Dart, and one for himself. Dart looked at the bowl. It was real ramen. Back home (in America) he had never seen ramen look like this before because it was always instant in a bag or cup and had no natural flavorings. Dart loved ramen, but seeing the look of this, he wanted to cry. He had always wanted to try an actual bowl, but he never found a restaurant that had any. Now he was eating some with the hyper active ninja and ramen freak Naruto. He had to be dreaming.

He raised his chopsticks. He was not used to chopsticks and had only used them only a few times in his life, but he knew the proper way to hold them. After a couple times he couldn't raise the noodles in the air until he found a proper technique. It also made him look like he ate with chopsticks his whole life. He was about to take a bite before he realized that he was in a Japanese culture and should have showed some respect. "Itadakimasu!" he yelled out in glee and then began stuffing himself to his heart's content. He was glad he saw practically ever episode of Naruto.

Sasuke watching him the whole time thought, 'Well at least he caught on and has some manners.' After a while everyone finished except Naruto who was on his ninth bowl. 'What a pig!' Sakura thought. 'Dobe' Sasuke thought. 'What a monster!' Dart thought with a shocked expression on his face. Finally Naruto finished and paid his bill, leaving his wallet a lot lighter. "Arigatou, Naruto-san" Dart said. "Uh no problem…um, what's your name again?" Then Sasuke spoke, "Yes, we yet have to hear your name." Sakura put on a cheerful smile and said, "Yes we are quite curious!"

Dart looked at them and said "How rude of me! I'm sorry; all I've been doing today is cursing and yelling. My name is…" (Then Dart realized in Japanese culture, you had to reverse your name when stating it) "Tension, Dart!" "Well, it's been a pleasure to be in your company," Sakura said with a bow and walked home. "Yes same here," Sasuke said with a smirk. He left home too and left Dart and Naruto at the restaurant. "Well I guess you are coming with me then," Naruto said with a sigh. Dart followed him home to an apartment on the second floor. Upon opening the door, Dart looked around. It was very small. It had one bathroom with some cramped space and a shower. The kitchen consisted of a sink, a stove, an oven, and a small refrigerator that was connected to the bedroom. It also had a couch that could fit a person if they lay down on it which was located towards the center of the bedroom. Off to the corner was a much larger bed. "You sleep on the couch, I'll get some blankets," Naruto said. "Sure thing" Dart replied. Opening a small closet, Naruto grabbed some extra sheets and threw them on the couch. "Arigatou, Naruto-neesan." Dart said. 'Alright, I think I got this honorifics stuff down.' Naruto went to his bed and went to sleep saying goodnight. Dart went to the bathroom and examined himself in the mirror. His reflection made a nasty grin, but his own face didn't.

A normal person would have freaked at first sight of this, but Dart didn't since he was used to this. 'What do you want?' 'I see you made some friends.' 'Yeah, so?' 'Well then, I guess we are stuck here. I blame you.' 'Whatever' 'Arghh! I hate you!' 'I hate you more!!!!!' Then Dart punched at the wall and he made a hole. Making a loud bang, Naruto yelled from the bedroom, "What was that!" "Oh nothing!!! I just slipped!" Dart yelled back.

'What the hell was that!' 'I don't know, but I like it.' 'Oh shut up.' Dart thought silencing the voice in his head. He had made a hole through the wall, a solid hole. Dart knew the walls in Naruto's apartment weren't that thin. Then Dart began suspecting something. He was in the Naruto universe because he was watching it on his computer. However, he still had his story about the Dart Tension, the super hero, story. He recalled the latest progress he made was when; the hero discovered most of his powers. He had enhanced strength, enhanced speed, and an unearthly ability to generate a force of energy from any part of his body and shoot it or manipulate it into several ways. That was his theory, that the rift also took a form of the story and had made it reality.

There was only one way to find out. Dart concentrated on his hands for a couple minutes. Then he saw a bright, white, glow with blue edges emanate from his hands. 'I'm right! This might make my life as a ninja possible!' Dart had several powers for his superhero lined up. He just needed to discover them on his own, but he knew it would take a long time too, because the superhero did the same in his story. 'I'll show Naruto and the others in the morning' he thought sleepily as he left the bathroom and glided into the couch under the warmth of the blankets.

Chapter End
