A/N: I could so picture Lee and Gai pulling this off. XP
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. I just thought I should let you know.

Maito Gai was walking towards the Ninja Academy when an hysterical Rock Lee came running towards him, waving an English-translated Naruto manga volume over his head.
"Gai-sensei! Gai-sensei! You will never believe this! They got your name wrong!" he cried out in panic.
"Let me see that!" Gai said as he took the graphic novel from his young pupil.
Lee ran behind Gai, looked over his shoulder and started jabbing his finger into the pages. "See?! See?! See?!" he shouted. "Right there! They called you Might Guy instead of Maito Gai!"
Gai's eyes widened. "Holy -"
The rest of his outburst could not be heard however, because a heard of loud bulls came charging in front of them and you couldn't lip-read what he was saying either, because the dust clouds that the bulls kicked up were too thick to see him through. So Gai's ending to that statement shall never be heard, not even by Rock Lee, because even though he was standing right behind him, the bulls were too loud. And since he was standing behind him, he couldn't bother lip-reading.
"It is a good thing that those bulls came through," Lee declared as he got his messed-up hair back into the bowl cut, "or else I would have been looking more shaken up than that."
"Wait a minute!" Gai exclaimed. "Maybe my name was changed to Might Guy to show that I'm a super hero!"
"I do not follow," Lee said, scratching his head.
"You know! In those comic books you youths are always reading?!" Gai began. "The super hero's name always ends with 'man'! You know, like Superman, or Batman, or Spiderman?!"
"I still do not get it," Lee replied.
"Just listen, my youthful student!" Gai said with a hearty slap on the back. "You see, instead of being run-of-the-mill, I am a 'guy' instead of a 'man', so being thus, I am Might Guy, instead of Might Man!"
Lee smiled brightly. "Oh, I see now! But . . . what does a Might Guy do?"
Gai tapped his chin thoughtfully. "Hmm . . . well, I probably save the day."
"But how?" Lee asked.
"Well, probably how the name implies, of course!" he answered. Then he flashed his trademark grin and thumb's-up. "With Might Power!"
Lee raised a bushy eyebrow. "Might Power?"
"Yes! The Power of Might! It's a strong power that equals, if not triumphs, chakura!"
"Wow!" Lee cried, realizing that since he couldn't use any chakura-needed jutsu, this was right up his alley. "What is this Power of Might?"
"It's part bluff, part winging it and part sheer luck," Gai explained.
"Do you think you could teach it to me?" Lee asked hopefully.
"Of course you shall learn it!" Gai replied happily. "For you shall be my sidekick!"
"That is excellent!" Lee shouted. "What is my super name?"
"Well, it has to sound good with Might Guy, so what about Could Kid? No, wait . . . Could Lad! That sounds even better!"
"Could Lad? I like it!" Lee beamed.
"Now that we have our super names and power, we can start saving Konoha!"
"No, we cannot Gai-sensei! We need one more thing!" Lee shouted.
Gai gasped. "You're right, Could Lad!" Then he pointed dramatically to the left. "To the linen closet!"
Then Gai and Lee ran to Gai's apartment.
