Chapter 2: The Extent of the Changes
Setsuna sighed… she had to tell them.
"Okay…" said Setsuna, "The alteration changed one thing but there was horrible ripple effect."
"What changed?" asked Naruto.
Setsuna turned and around and looked at Ash's memorial… the others saw that… due to Ash's state when he died they couldn't stand him up… nor did they want to burry them.
"What is that?" asked Ranma, "A stature?"
"It looks like Ash." Said Ryoga as he poured water on himself and for some unexplained reason fully dressed.
"That stature is Ash." Said Setsuna.
"What!" yelled everyone else.
"4 Years ago Ash was turned to stone and because of that died in a sense, which caused a domino effect on everything." Said Setsuna.
"Wait! Why would this cause the world to die?" asked Kiyo.
"Wait… that story that Ash sometimes told… the one about him in the Orange Islands." Said Naruto, "The one where he saved the world…"
"Oh yeah… I remember that…" said Luffy, "Some crazed guy tried to capture the legendary birds who went insane and nearly decoyed the world…"
That's when they realized it…
"Ash… didn't save the world did he?" asked Kousagi.
Setsuna shook her head no…
"Wait… then what about Gary?" asked Naruto.
"You should be dead." Said Kakashi.
"I know… I should be… the thing is that when I ended the world… of all place I was standing at the exact place that this world's rainbow Crystal was, thanks to the small piece of the Silver Crystal I was able to be reborn…" said Gary.
"However there were also some effects that were spread though each of your worlds…" said Setsuna.
"What sort of effects…" asked Naruto who already knew some of them.
"First off due to many reasons… the Neo Dark Kingdom is still in power." Said Setsuna.
"WHAT!" yelled the other Senshi.
"So it's controlled by Amethyst?" asked Ryoga.
"No… it's not. It's still controlled by Jadeite… in fact the Rainbow Crystals haven't reformed into the Silver Crystal yet…" said Setsuna.
"Wait what ever happened to the Black Sun?" asked Ryoga, "I mean, if it weren't for them chasing after us me and Zoro wouldn't have awakened."
"Oh… that's simple… both of you awakened on your own during different fights." Said Setsuna.
Everyone sweat dropped… it was so obvious it was that.
"Wait what about our worlds?" asked Kakashi.
"I will be listing the problems front least severe to severe…" said Setsuna, "In the World of Pirates, due to the fact that Ace was still traveling with the Straw Hats when chain of events of Enies Lobby happened."
"But nothing changed that much." Said Ace.
"Take a look at your wanted poster next time you look at it." Said Setsuna.
This of course made Ace sweat drop.
"Due to the fact that Ash died, Kousagi was born about a year earlier to fill that place… just she met Kasumi and was of course adopted after discovering that Kousagi didn't have a family." Said Setsuna.
"So, wait… the only difference is that I'm older and nothing else?" asked Kousagi.
"Now the next changes are obvious… in this time line the battle with Zofis went on as it should have with out the Black Sun… There were many Mamodo casualties… Kido and Penny's books were burned along with Zofis' other servants… Zofis erased Koko's memories of the events so she never came to live with you Kiyo." Said Setsuna, "Also Eido never wakened as a Sailor Senshi."
"So wait then that means…" said Kiyo, "I don't have people living in the my living room…"
Everyone sweat dropped…
"Now the last is the most serve changes… in this time line, Arashi was never revived and also Sasuke never returned to the Village… you also never went on your Training Trip with Jiraiya." Said Setsuna, "So your body currently can't handle the Venus Clone Jutsu."
"Wait! Then why hasn't my apartment collapsed? I mean, it collapsed for some reason." Said Naruto.
"It just never happened, it's not like anyone caused it." Said Setsuna with a shrug while blushing slightly.
"Setsuna… you're a terrible liar…" thought Kakashi with a sweat drop.
"Right now we have to pretend there's nothing off about the worlds, we have to pretend that everything's going fine…" said Setsuna.
Everyone nodded, "Wait!" said Kousagi, "I don't think I can."
"Why?" asked Setsuna.
Kousagi blushed, "Well the thing is… I can't walk very well… I keep tripping and stumbling… I grew up to much that… I'm still adjusting."
"I'll help you with that." Said Ranma with a small laugh.
"Really uncle Ranma?" asked Kousagi.
"Yeah… I'll just everyone nothing's wrong." Said Ranma.
"Also before we leave, Naruto is now the leader." Said Setsuna, "The Dark Sun knows this and so does everyone else."
"Oh okay…" said Naruto not knowing how to react.
"Wow I'd expect you to have a bigger reaction." Said Luffy.
"Um… yeah…" said Naruto.
"He's still dealing with several facts." Said Kakashi.
"I see…" said Luffy.
"Also Naruto… you're the one keeping out rainbow Crystals… their in your underwear drawl." Said Setsuna.
"How do you know that?" asked Naruto blushing slightly.
Setsuna blushes, "I saw it in the Time Gates…" said Setsuna.
"Wait… before we have to go… what about Sasuke and Eido… do they remember?" asked Naruto.
"I don't know if they do…" said Setsuna, "The fact they haven't awakened in this time line is a factor… we won't know unless we run into Eido."
Naruto sighed…
"Also is there any way to fix this?" asked Naruto.
"Right now we have to find out what caused this and how to fix it." Said Setsuna.
"We also have to fight the Neo Dark Kingdom." Said Kakashi.
"On the plus side we know that Amethyst is the true villain." Said Luffy.
Ace checked his watch… "It's only been a minute since we came here…"
"All right guys! Let's fight the Neo Dark Kingdom and find who ever screwed up the time line!" cheered Naruto.
Most of the inners and asteroid Senshi nodded… but the outers, Kiyo and Kousagi could detect the nervousness in Naruto.
"Wait Kiyo… Gary before we go back there's something I need to talk to you about." Said Setsuna.
Both exchanged looks and then looked at Setsuna.
On the roof top of some random building Eido woke up…
"What happened?" he asked.
"You woke up… that's what happened." Said Hyde rolling his eyes.
"Was I taking a nap?" asked Eido.
"It's morning." Said Hyde rolling his eyes.
Eido then remembered the weird message from Setsuna.
"Oh man… my communicator!" yelled Eido who began to look for it.
"Communicator?" asked Hyde raising an eyebrow.
"You know the Sailor Senshi…" said Eido.
"Did you hit your head recently? Because your talking gibberish." Said Hyde.
Eido sweat dropped then stared at Hyde, "What's going on?" he thought.
"Hey why don't we go to Mochinoki JR. High…" said Eido.
"Oh sure… so we can stare at the sexy history teacher…" said Hyde rolling his eyes.
Eido sweat dropped…
Meanwhile nearby the mysterious new member of the Neo Dark Kingdom and Ruby were watching them.
"Finally!" cheered Ruby, "I like your style! I've been wanting to drain his energy."
"He's the perfect target, it might be if we drain him dry." Said the mysterious member.
Meanwhile in the World of Ninja Naruto was laying on his bed staring at the 4 Rainbow Crystals.
"I wonder… why… I know I'm leader after Ash… but why did this have to happen? Why?" thought Naruto, "Dad… Sasuke… maybe if you two were here…"
That's when there was a knock at the door. Naruto got up and it was Hinata, who still had her shorter hair… but she was blushing and held a picnic basket.
"Um… Naruto… I don't have any missions for today, would you like to go n a picnic?" asked Hinata.
Naruto smiled and nodded, "Sure!" he said.
Meanwhile at Kiyo's house he was sitting in the living with a weird smile on his face.
"Kiyo… you're acting weird." Said Zatch.
"Don't mind him… just ignore him." Said Hermes rolling his eyes.
That's when the doorbell rang, Hana got the door, it was Setsuna, Gary and Pikachu.
"Hello Setsuna, is everything all right. Gary was screaming this morning." Said Hana.
"It was nothing." Said Setsuna.
"Zatch, Gary's here." Said Hana.
"Okay!" said Zatch who ran into the door way and gabbed Gary's hand, Kiyo also got up.
"Bye mom." Said Kiyo.
And so Setsuna and Kiyo walked to school together.
"I really feel sorry for Gary." Said Kiyo.
"I know… but we can't use the Time Mushrooms… he's going have to pretend to be a 3 year old." Said Setsuna.
The talk that the three of them had in Crystal Tokyo was about Gary and Setsuna and their relationship with Kiyo's family. In this timeline after the death of the world, Setsuna had to move in next door to Kiyo's family with Gary who's name still legally is Oak, she's been the teacher the entire time and Hana has always baby sat Gary… since Zatch came along the two always played together… well not right away… but after everyone got used to Gary, Pikachu was also their rare exotic pet that for some reason could shoot lighting.
"Well right now it's he best thing to do…" said Kiyo.
Sometime later in the World of Ninja, at a lake… Naruto and Hinata were eating together, it was very quiet… Hinata knew something was wrong.
"Naruto what is it?" asked Hinata.
"Oh just thinking." Said Naruto.
"About Sasuke?" asked Hinata.
Naruto looked at Hinata blinking.
"How did you…" said Naruto.
Hinata laughed a little, "I know that your still worried about him… and because you don't want to abandoned the Senshi you can't go on your training trip with Jiraiya."
"Yeah… but it's not just that…" said Naruto.
"What else?" asked Hinata.
"I was think about who my parents are…" said Naruto, "I've been putting some thought into but… maybe my father might be the 4th Hokage himself… I mean… would he choose any other kid for that?"
Hinata looked at Naruto and blushed, "Oh… you really think…" said Hinata, "But what about you mother?" asked Hinata.
"I don't know…" answered Naruto who began to think about what his father told him about his mother.
(Flashback)
Arashi was showing Naruto a picture of a beautiful red haired woman.
"This is your mother, Uzumaki Kushina." Said Arashi, "The most beautiful woman in the world."
"Wait… I could have sworn you told me her name was Momoko at one point." Said Naruto.
"No did I didn't." denied Arashi.
"Yes you told me her name was Momoko!" yelled Naruto.
"When did I?" asked Arashi.
"On your training trip." Said Naruto.
The two began to fight in a very petty way…
(End of Flashback)
"Have talked about to this about Lady Tsunade?" asked Hinata.
"She'll just deny it…" said Naruto with a shrug.
Hinata nodded, "Your right about that…" she said.
Back in the World of the Mamodo Battle, Eido was looking though binoculars at the class.
"So Setsuna's there…" he said.
"Yeah, yeah… she's been the teacher since before I've known you… you like hanging out sometimes just to watch her." Said Hyde rolling his eyes.
"I'm going to have to talk to him later about that." He thought.
Meanwhile in the world of Ninja, in a mysterious location, in an empty room, Sasuke stood there… thinking about the day that happened so far… he woke up in one of the many lairs that is the Village Hidden in the Sound… from what he gathered from the message before he woke up, there was a strange time alteration and now he's still under Orochimaru's thumb… either that or it was some strange Genjutsu he was under, but the fact that he was already under Genjutsu a few times since Orochimaru joined the Black Sun, he doubted what he experience the past few months was one... He closed his eyes and focused his energy… that's when there was a sky blue light and his original transformation wand appeared from that light, he grabbed it and looked at it.
"So all I need now is to come up with an escape plan…" he said to himself.
Meanwhile in the World of Pirates, Ace took a breath. He stood before Zoro and Luffy.
"Okay… it took me a while to calm down after seeing this… but in order for us to play it cool you have to look at this too…" said Ace.
He ten showed him his wanted poster, which made their eyes go wide.
"Oh man!" said Luffy, "I've seen such a high…"
Before he could finish that sentence, Zoro covered his mouth.
"Don't yell you'll blow it." Said Ace.
"So what do you think happened?" asked Zoro, "I mean you aided us…"
"From what I gathered it's become common knowledge that I'm Luffy's brother. Because of that White Beard understood why I helped out which means I'm still a member." Said Ace.
"That make sense." Said Luffy getting Zoro's hand off his mouth.
"Yeah…" said Ace.
Meanwhile in the World of Chaos…
"Kasumi, would you like to go shopping with me?" asked Kasumi.
"Not today, Kasumi-mama." Said Kasumi shaking her head no.
"Is everything all right?" asked Kasumi.
"Everything's fine! Really!" said Kousagi with a sweat drop.
"Okay…" said Kasumi with s shrug, "I'll be home later."
When Kasumi left Kousagi sighed…
"So why aren't you going?" asked Luna.
"I can't… I need to get used to my size…" said Kousagi, "I know it's just a few inches… but…"
Luna nodded, "I understand." Said Luna.
Kousagi nodded and smiled.
That afternoon after school… Kiyo was leaving when there was a gust of wind that stopped him in his tracks. When the wind died down, both Hyde and Eido stood there…
"We've come to challenge you." Said Hyde, "Go get Zatch Bell right now and…"
That's when Eido grabbed Hyde and covered his mouth, "Actually that's a lie… I came her to ask you some questions…" said Eido.
"Let guess, you remember." Said Kiyo.
"Yeah… what's going on." Said Eido.
"Well I do have to explain to Zatch… so guys should come along… just one thing… you can't crash on my couch until everything's normal again." Said Kiyo.
"What!" yelled Eido, "Come on!"
"I've bee dealing with you for the past few months! I need a break!" yelled Kiyo.
Not too far away…
"Oh man, he's talking to Mercury!" complained Ruby.
"Well Mercury is the weakest Sailor Senshi… so that doesn't matter right?" asked the mysterious new recruit.
"I guess you're right." Said Ruby.
With Kiyo, Eido and Hyde they all began to walk back to Kiyo's house.
"Okay so tell me what's going on right now!" yelled Hyde.
"It's kind of hard to explain." Said Eido.
That's when a Youma appeared, seemingly from the sky.
"What the hell is that thing." Said Hyde.
"A Youma!" said Kiyo.
"Wait… Youma… I think I heard those before." Said Eido.
That's when the Youma aimed it's attack at Eido who managed to dodge.
"It's after you Eido!" yelled Hyde.
"Oh man!" said Eido.
"Okay… Eido… you should distract thing…" said Kiyo.
"Why me?" asked Eido.
"Do you have any other ideas?" asked Kiyo.
"Damn it…" muttered Eido, "Jikar!"
That's when both he and Hyde flew away, "You better help me quickly!" yelled Eido.
That's when Kiyo took out his communicator and called everyone, "Hey! Right now! Eido's an energy target." Said Kiyo.
"Really… does he remember?" asked Luffy.
"Yeah…" said Kiyo, "He doesn't have his powers… so we need to help him as much as we can."
"Okay…" said everyone else.
In the world of Ninja both Naruto and Hinata were taking a walk.
"So looks like Duty calls." Said Naruto.
"Yeah… be careful Naruto…" said Hinata.
"Right!" said Naruto.
Naruto ran off and waved bye to her, Hinata looked at him, "He's hiding something… and I think it has to with the Senshi…" she thought.
Meanwhile with Eido and Hyde they dodged the Youma as best they could… that's when the Youma launched either tentacles at him.
"What the…" muttered Eido.
The Youma began to drain him… "Oh man…" muttered Eido.
"Oni Giri!" came a shout.
That's when the tentacles to the ground, Eido looked to see it was Sailor Juno.
"Zoro!" said Eido.
"Honestly McLovin you're an idiot…" muttered Sailor Juno.
"Hey!" yelled Eido.
"McLovin?" asked Hyde.
"Oh man… I have to tell him again…" thought Eido.
"Hey! Eido…" said Sailor Uranus joining them with the other Sailor Senshi as well as Zatch and Pikachu, "You remember how to get your Transformation Wand again, right?"
"No… I forgot…" said Eido with a sweat drop.
"You really an idiot! Aren't you McLovin…" said Sailor Saturn.
"Stop calling me that!" yelled Eido, "Whatever's going on, Hyde don't remember it…"
"Please tell me that's a nickname." Said Hyde with a sweat drop.
"You have to focus your power… remember…" sighed Sailor Mercury.
"Kiyo, what's going on?" asked Zatch.
"I'll tell you later." Said Sailor Mercury.
"Okay!" said Eido who focused his power and his original transformation wand appeared, "Vesta Asteroid Power!"
That's when Eido transformed into Sailor Vesta…
"What the…" muttered Hyde.
"Eido's a Sailor Senshi…" said Zatch blinking.
Sailor Vesta smirked.
"You can't the attack I gave you! You only have you're first two attacks!" said Sailor Cosmos Moon.
"And Flare Wall you have to focus your energy…" said Sailor Pluto.
"Either way…" said Sailor Vesta with a smirk, she closed her eyes and began to glow red, "Vesta Flare Wall!"
The fire attack hit the monster head on and engulfed it in flames.
"All right! Time to finish it!" said Sailor Venus.
"Venus Spiraling Sphere!"
"Mars Gum Gum Bazooka Shot!"
"Jupiter Leaf Slice!"
All of the attacks hit the Youma who screamed in pain.
"My turn." Said Sailor Cosmos Moon, "Platinum Light Wave!"
The monster was destroyed…
Nearby Ruby and the mysterious recruit watched.
"He's Sailor Vesta! How can this be!" yelled Ruby.
"Interesting urn of events…" said the mysterious new recruit with an evil smirk.
The two of them disappeared.
Meanwhile with the Senshi detransformed…
"Okay! Tell me what's going on right now!" yelled Hyde, "And why do they keep calling you McLovin!"
"Okay… well tell you everything… and we have you too Zatch what's going on." Said Kiyo.
And so they told them what's going on.
"So history was altered!" said Zatch shocked.
"And you guys and Eido are cross-dressing inter dimensional super heroes?" asked Hyde.
"That's right." Said Naruto.
"Is Ash really dead?" asked Eido.
"Well technically he was turned into stone… but yes, he is dead." Said Kakashi.
"Oh man…" said Eido, "Oh man… where am I going to stay…"
"Don't' worry you can stay with me, Gary and Pikachu." Said Setsuna.
Pikachu sweat dropped, while Gary just said "Yay… McLovin's staying with us…" very, very sarcastically.
"Eido… why do they calling you McLovin?" asked Hyde.
Zoro and Gary looked at each other and smiled.
"That's his last name…" said Zoro.
"Is that true?" asked Hyde trying not to laugh.
"Oh come on! Couldn't you keep that to yourself for once! What did I ever do you?" asked Eido.
"You know what you did!" yelled Gary and Zoro.
"But that didn't happen in this timeline!" yelled Eido.
"But we all still remember it!" yelled Gary and Zoro.
"Do I want to know?" asked Hyde.
"No…" said Kiyo shaking his head.
"Hey! Wait then that means Sasuke remembers!" said Naruto happily who then thought of something, "Wait he probably though everything he's expected was Jutsu some weird Genjutsu…"
"You're wrong… knowing him he'll sense his Senshi power and run away from Orochimaru… I would be surprised if he's done it already." Said Kakashi.
Meanwhile in the World of Ninja Sasuke was leading the lair when he heard a voice saying "Where are you going?"
Sasuke turned around and saw a smirking Kabuto. He prepared himself for a battle that might be coming… hopping he didn't have to do it after all.
Next Time: Sasuke manages to get back to the village and must endure a horrible fate he escape from a long time ago... Meanwhile the Neo Dark Kingdom decides to go after the Rainbow Crystals... what will happen? Find out next time!
