Note: I own nothing except for Zujura.


He was on his bed, thinking about his injuries. He had taken a shot to protect Zatanna from harm. He had done this before, and his friends did it to him.

His injury was almost healed but he wasn't allowed to leave the Watchtower just yet. Batman wanted to speak to him. He was perplexed how he could have healed that fast. Suddenly someone in his head spoke. He was used to people talking to him. And he was used to this voice.

You can't hide me forever, Zujura. One day you must tell them.

I know, but they are not ready for it yet.


Zatanna was sitting on the table, worried about Zujura. He had yet again saved her, almost at the cost of her life. She was deep in her thoughts when Wally came to her.

" What's wrong, girl ?"

" It's nothing." She replied. After that she turned her face and Artemis came over.

" You can tell us." The archer asked her.

Turning towards them, Zatanna replies " It's just that because of me Zujura is injured."

" Don't worry, he will be back today." Robin said to lessen her worries. Confused, Zatanna asks him how. " Simple, Batman told me that he would be coming back today."

" But how can he heal that fast. I mean come on, that was near death." Wally cries.

" Don't know, but I will ask Batman about this."


Zujura was seated on a table. He had given a test which was made by Batman so his mind was already ready for him. He was wearing blue jeans, but no shirt as the bandages were not to be removed for five hours, which was almost up. He tried to move his arms but it hurt like hell. Suddenly same voice in his head spoke.

The guy with the bat fetish will need to know about me.

Fine, but for now only him.

Batman came in and sat directly opposite to him. His face showed a hint of annoyance as to how he could have healed.

" First things first." Batman says. " How did you recover that quick ? That was one of Deathstroke's deadliest shots."

" If I tell you, do you promise not to freak out ?" Zujura asks him. After Batman nods, Zujura takes a deep breath and says calmly " During one of my missions as a Time Patroller, I had to escort a kid."

Batman looks at him, confused. What does a kid have to do with this. " Get to the point."

" That kid was chosen by his tribe to be sacrificed to become a demon vessel. However, at his age, he would have died." After looking at a confused expression, he continues " As you know, I had a strict oath to protect life. I hid the kid and went to sacrifice myself. The demon was Panza, the Demon King." He looked up at the roof. " I will never forget what that kid said to me."

" And what was that ?" Batman asked him, finally understanding what he did.

" He said 'Thank you'. And with that he ran away. I made sure he had a good life." Zujura, then looked at Batman and continues " I later found the Demon and performed the ritual."

" So the Demon is in you." Batman said, getting cautious.

" Correct. And don't worry. We have made an agreement." Zujura said, waving his arms in defense.

" Of what sorts."

" I scratch his back, he scratch mine. When I got injured, his healing factor multiplied mine by a lot."

Batman looked at him for a minute before saying " I have created a secret identity for you. You are Danial Yousuf from Arabia."

" No problem." Batman looked at Zujura when he said that. Zujura sighed before continuing " I was born in Arabia and lived there my whole life before became a Time Patroller."

" Fine then, you have been home schooled till now. And you are an orphan."

" Fine. So what school I go to." Zujura asked him.

" You will go to Happy Harbor School, along with the rest of your team members."

" Thanks. Is there anything else ?" Zujura asked him. When Batman shook his head, he stood up and said " Best be off then" before putting two fingers to his forehead and disappearing.


Zatanna was reading a book while everyone else was watching television. She was still worried about Zujura. Even though the team had comforted her, she still felt responsible for the condition she got him in.

Suddenly a figure appeared before her and yelled " I'M BACK !" It was Zujura. Zatanna gasped at him. He was wearing blue jeans while his upper chest was covered in bandages. He looked around and whined " What ? No welcome back party." Wally snickered at the comment.

Everyone suddenly gathered around Zujura, first being Wally, who promptly asked " How did you survive that ?"

" Simple, it was my healing factor."

"Your healing factor ?" Panza chuckled.

"Not now Panza." He growled.

Zujura noticed that Megan was eyeing him suspiciously. " Zujura, who ar-"

" Well look at the time, it's time that my bandages came off." Zujura said, interrupting her. " Well, I will be in my room." He proceeded to leave when he turned around and said " Oh and Batman says that I will go to school with you guys."

" All right." Wally yelled.

" Congratulations." Rocket cheered. " Get ready for hell."

When Zujura left, Zatanna followed him saying so the rest of them could hear, " He might need help removing the bandages."

" She has hots for him" Wally said, crossing his arms. This remark received a smack on the head from Artemis. " What ?"


Zujura was getting his bandages off him, but apparently one of them was out of the reach of his hands. He was thinking about doing the Multi-form technique when he heard someone knocking on his door.

He proceeded to open the door, to find Zatanna standing, with a sad look on her eyes. " What's wrong Zatanna ?" He asked her, worried about her.

" Can I come in ?" She asked her. As he nodded, she came in and observed his room. It was filled various pictures of Zujura and two other people. One was a guy with long blue hair while the other one was a girl, with short. shoulder length black hair. He noticed that she was looking at them. He smiled and went over to her.

" They're my friends. Sipu and Onema. They are the best of fighters too." He chuckled.

" Really ?"

" Well, Sipu is my rival, using the same fighting styles I did when together, but when we were against an enemy, we used the exact opposites. Onema, on the other hand used magic."

" She used magic ?" Zatanna asked surprised.

" She used her own ki to do magic." He said. He then looked at his bandages and asked " You think you can help me a bit ?"

I should help him. He saved my life. " Of course, I will help you."

" Think you can remove the bandages." He said, pointing to his back. He then sat down on his bed.

Zatanna walked over to him and carefully touched the bandages and started to unwind them. Slowly and slowly, the bandages were almost removed. It was almost removed when Zujura fell on her.

" Zujura what are you doing ?" She said, worried and blushing at the same time.

" You…..are..…on…..tail." He gasped slowly and quietly. That was when Zatanna looked down to see that her knee was on his tail.

" Sorry." Zatanna said, blushing, getting off of his tail.

" Don't worry." He replied, rubbing his tail before making it his belt again. He then grinned. Zatanna then removed the last bandage. She began to blush when she looked at his body again. It was scarred as usual but it had one extra scar, the scar which Deathstroke gave him.

This did not go unnoticed by Zujura, who smiled.

" Good thing you know how to control your ki, boy, otherwise Beerus would have seen you as a threat." Panza chuckled.

( A/N : Saiyan ki increases based on emotion)

" Shut up, Panza. Not in the mood right now." Zujura said.

" Tell her how you feel."

" What if she doesn't like me."

" Tell yourself that. We both know what will happen when you ask her." He sneered.

" Fine."

" Zujura, are you okay ? You sorta spaced out for a second right there." Zatanna asked.

" Nothing, it's fine." Zujura chuckled, waving his arms.

" Okay then." Zatanna said. She then turned around and started to walk out the door. What am I thinking ? He is a warrior who has trained with Gods. He must have seen many women who might have caught his interest.

" Umm… Zatanna ?" Zujura said, prompting Zatanna to stop and turn around. " Can I ask you something ?"

" Sure."

" Do you like me ?" His question shocked her. That was unexpected from him. Slowly, and unsurely, she nodded her head. " Phew, I like you too. "

That had shocked Zatanna. " How did you know ?"

" We Saiyans have a special trait that we find our 'soul mates' quite quickly." He blushed when he said soul mates.

" Really, well that must be helpful ?" She asked him, blushing.

" Well, it is, unless there happens to be a problem." He chuckled. After looking at Zatanna's raised eyebrows, he continued " The female usually cuts of the reason a man calls himself a man."

" Oh." Zatanna blushed, imagining her cutting of Zujura's manhood.

" Well, since we know that we like each other, Sipu told me that we should go on a date then."

Is he asking me out ? Oh crap, he is. Zatanna thought to herself. " Sure." And with a peck on the cheek, she ran to her room, leaving Zujura to wonder what had just happened.

" Someone got to first base." Panza laughed like a maniac.

" I hate you."


Artemis was wondering why Zatanna was acting so cheerfully when she was gloomy a few moments ago. She knocked on the door. As Zatanna opened, Artemis's mouth dropped. Zatanna was wearing a black T-shirt and dark blue jeans. Her hair was all wavy. " What happened ?" was all Artemis could muster.

" Well, someone asked me on a date." Zatanna giggled.

" No, Zujura asked you." With that, Artemis also began to giggle.

" It's true."

She then began to walk towards the main hall, waiting for Zujura.

" What's up guys ?" Megan came to them. When Artemis told her, she gasped and then started to giggle.

Soon Zujura came towards them, and his appearance shocked all of them. He wore an orange T-Shirt with a 'Kami' kanji on the back, which did a bad jo of hiding all of his muscles, and a pair of black jeans. " What ?"

" Told you that orange is the wrong color." Panza spoke.

" Shut up, Panza"

Miss Martian began to eye him suspiciously, which did not go unnoticed by Zujura. " Shall we go then." Zujura asked Zatanna. As they were about to leave, Zujura said " I forgot my wallet, you go ahead, I will be with you."

As she left, Zujura turned to Megan who asked him " Who were you speaking to ?" It felt as if she demanded it from him.

" Don't tell this to anyone." Zujura asked her. When she nodded, he said " To save a life of a boy, I trapped a demon within me so no harm could come to him. I usually converse with him and he actually help me a lot in my daily affairs. Okay." With that he left.

Megan took this in and left. She knew that Zujura was one to be trusted.


The couple had a wild time on their date. Zatanna came to know more about his life and adventures while Zujura got an interest in her life. When they had reached home, Zujura said " I had a nice time with you."

" Me too." She smiled. Should I ask him ? " Umm, Zujura ?"

" Yes."

" Can you teach me how to use ki ?"

" Sure, why not ?" He said to her. Both of them smiled.

Zatanna suddenly felt his lips press against her. When he broke the kiss, he said " I didn't repay the kiss." Zatanna suddenly felt like blushing.

" Meet me at the beach tomorrow morning." Zujura told her while smiling. With another quick kiss they departed.


Can Miss Martian keep his secret ? Can Zatanna learn to use ki ? Will Zujura get his revenge on Deathstroke ? And most importantly, will Zujura get his 'Welcome Back' party ? Read the next chapter of Young Justice X to find out.
