Author's Area

Hello, Everyone! This is my second fic that I have decided to start. It is a Naruto/DBZ crossover fic. I don't think there are many out there, and I decided to try my hand at it. To those that have read my other fic, I am going to be changing that one. This story, however, has become my focus, and I will be rewriting my A Saiyon On Pern fic on the side.

This story involves Gohan who is taken to the world of Naruto. Gohan is post Cell Games and Naruto is post Sasuke Retrieval. Gohan may be slightly different, but I am going to try and keep the Naruto characters as close to cannon as I can get them.

Chapter One: The Gateway

--

Gohan Son sat in front a small blue monitor in the lab room. His faced illuminated by the faint glow of the screen in front of him. He was finishing a report on the latest planet he had come across in the system the ship was currently traveling through.

The planet was uninhabited. Gohan surmised that the intense heat due to the proximity to the system's sun would make it unbearable for many different forms of life. The atmosphere was also filled with an assortment of deadly gasses. All in all, the planet was not very interesting at all.

He decided to move on from that particular planet to another that was much farther away from the sun. It was the sixth in the system, and, according the readings on the monitor, it had a structure similar to Earth. The scans also picked up unnatural structures indicative of a civilization. Though there were structures, the scans did not pick up any signs of life on the plant.

Gohan allowed the computer to set the course to the next planet as he drowsily walked off towards the comfort of his bed and a revitalizing night of sleep.

Gohan was 13 years old, and had been on this space craft for nearly half a year. The ship, known as the CCS: Gregori I, was the latest scientific analysis ship built by Capsule Corp. Bulma had explained to Gohan that the ship was going to be used to gather information about the different life-forms, planets, and anomalies of the universe. The young saiyan jumped at the chance of learning more and possibly making more friends.

At first his mother had been against Gohan's decision. Many of the Z fighters argued on Gohan's behalf, but it was not until her late husband Goku contacted her from the next dimension did she finally give Gohan her permission.

That had been one year ago. While Gohan did miss his friends and family, though they did keep in contact via video messages, he never felt happier in his life.

--

The ship's alarm alerted Gohan to the fact that they had arrived at the system's sixth planet.

The sixth planet looked similar to Earth, but there were noticeable differences. There were oceans, but the landmasses were red instead of the green and brown of Earth. The ship began its second scans of the planet. The same readings of non-natural structures and no humanoid life again showed up on the screen.

War is a possibility. Then again, from these pictures the structures seem to be weathered but not destroyed. If it was war then there should be more destruction. It doesn't seem to be a natural disaster for the same reason. How could a planet that seemed to be nearly covered by a civilization become such a wasteland? Gohan thought to himself.

Gohan's mind continued to work until the computer picked up a power reading in the north-eastern hemisphere. There seemed to be a stead power output emanating from a structure on the planet.

"Well, the gravity and atmosphere are similar to Earth. Computer, prepare for landing. Take the ship to the power reading on the map," Gohan said to the computer.

The ship began the landing procedure and landed about 2 kilometers from the structure. Inside of the ship, Gohan put on protective gear and walked outside. After capsulating the ship he launched into the air.

--

It did not take Gohan too long to get there. Slowly falling from the sky he looked down in interest at a structure that completely baffled him. Upon landing he moved closer to what Gohan could only describe as a stone ring.

The ring was full of writing that Gohan could not decipher. The ring was seated on a platform and a ramp lead up to the ring. Gohan surmised that the structure was some kind of monument, but that did not do much to explain the power reading he was getting from it.

"Hmm…….."

Gohan was stumped.

"It doesn't seem dangerous. I might as well get a closer look."

When he stepped on the ramp, though, the structure sprang to life. The view through the hole became distorted and a pedestal rose beside him. Looking down, he saw he was standing in circle.

"Hmm…….maybe this is a marker placed to show people where to stand."

He looked at the pedestal to the right of him and found a strange bracelet that resembled the ring he now stood in front of. Curiosity getting the better of him, he touched the object and immediately felt it latch onto his wrist.

"I wonder what it does."

He examined the bracelet before he heard a booming voice in his head.

Little one who is pure of heart, what is your desire?
