I Alternate Dimensions: Rise of Akatsuki

Chapter 4

I did say that i would start this story again, and now i have. Now just so everyone knows, my main concern is getting Another Path done but i am doing this on the side. Hopefully you all like this story.

It has been a few months since Naruto and Terra met. Terra now had better control over her earth powers but she still needed work. Terra developed a crush on the oblivious Naruto as they traveled are the states. Now they were in Colorado, in the mountain region. They had heard some rumors that a girl lived up here that had power over illusions but barely any control.

"Man, I really hope we can find this girl. They did say she lives with her grandfather...what was the guy's name again?"

Terra sighed at her friend's forgetfulness. "It is Black Eagle remember? I mean you did contact him a week ago to confirm these rumors, I would at least think you would remember."

"Heh, my bad." Naruto said as he rubbed the back of his head.

Terra just conked him over the head and kept walking the path they were on. Soon they came upon a Native American girl facing off with a demonic bear of sorts. Naruto narrowed his eyes as he could tell that this was an illusion and the girl was creating but it would seem she had no control over it and she looked like she didn't know she was the one creating this thing. He looked again and sighed. This was no ordinary illusion. It was in a sense, real

As he walked closer with Terra hot on his heels, he noticed the girl was crying for some reason. He sighed, brought out a kunai and threw it at the bear's head, which made it look at him. "Sad that an illusion has become real." He said loud.

The girl finally noticed his appearance. She was about to tell him off as he looked like a white man, but somehow she could tell he was a foreigner. "Run! This thing killed my parents! And now that my grandfather is dead, this thing is free to roam the lands!"

Naruto shook his head and said, "I hate you break it to you, but that is an illusion…created by your mutation."

"Wait what?" the girl asked.

"I'll explain later, let me handle this thing." Naruto said as he brought up his hand and one of his rings glowed before his eyes changed to that of the Sharingan. The girl gasped when she saw this but didn't say anything, not wanting to anger her savior. "This thing is now living as it is no longer an illusion. We will just have to kill it." Naruto said nonchalantly. He did a few hand signs and called out, "Fire Style: Dragon's Fury!" He blew out a massive amount of fire from his mouth that turned into a dragon. It then circled around the now freaked out bear before it crashed down on the beast. All it was doing now was burning the ground and the surrounding area. Sighing Naruto asked, "Terra, will you please snuff this out?"

"Right." Terra said from her spot a few feet away, the Native American girl just noticing her and glaring. Terra didn't notice and use her power to make the earth swallow up the flaming illusion bear, shocking the girl.

His eyes back to normal, Naruto turned to the girl. "My name is Naruto Uzumaki and this is Terra Markov. He came here after we connected a man named Black Eagle. He said that there people looking to kill you and wanted you to join us if some Xavier didn't come. It is your choice if you want to come with us."

"I am Danielle Moonstar." The girl said. Naruto looked at her more closely and noticed thathe was a brown skinned Native American that had a red tank top, back biker shorts and leather boots. She also had nice long black hair. "Will please tell me what the hell that was and why you said I was a mutant."

"Right. That bear we just saw was an illusion created from you. You may not understand that but have you ever noticed that people sometimes freak out in your presence?"

"Yes….I do. They sometimes say they saw their greatest fears." Danielle said timidly. "but that only started when we were teens and not kids."

"Understandable. You don't really gain mutant power til you reach puberty…..well that is what heard anyway. Now I am ninja, these rings help me gain that power I just used. I don't really know if I am a mutant or not." Naruto shrugged.

"Ok…so I have power of illusions?"

"It would seem so." Naruto replied. "but you could also have other powers. Now I can tell you don't have much control over your powers. I can help you with that since when you are using your power, you are using chakra. All you really need to control and I can help. What do you say?"

"Well since this Xavier person you talked about has not come yet, I guess I will go with you but I won't be happy about traveling with her as she is white!" Danielle announced.

Before Terra could get in a comeback, Naruto held up a hand and said, "Danielle, if you are going to be traveling with us you will have to get use to the white people. Besides, why do you hate white people?"

"I was living with some of them before they insulted my people and I ran away. I now think of white people as my enemies!"

Sighing Naruto spoke, "Listen, please give them a chance, they are not all stupid like that person, trust me, I know." He said with a smile.

Daniellle caved in at that smile. He may now know it but he was very handsome in her eyes. "Ok….i will try." She said as he walked up to Terra and they shook hands for a truce.

"Welll then, let's got to your place so you can pack." Naruto said with a smile as the new girl was getting along with Terra now.

"Oh live of the land and besides, my suit case is right over there." Danielle said, pointing to a nearby tree.

"Oh, well that is good then. We should get going." Naruto said before remembering something. "Oh, we go by nicknames like those heroes do. Terra is Terra though and I am Akatsuki…whicj means Red Dawn."

"I see…..I guess I could go with something that relates to illusions. "Danielle said as she struck a thinking pose before he snapped her fingers and said, "How about Mirage?"

"Sounds good because some people think that Mirages are real in the desert and your illusions can become real!" Terra said with a smirk.

"I guess we'll call you Mirage then." Naruto said as they begun to leave.

"I have a question….what is our group called." Danielle asked as they walked down the mountain.

"I was thinking on calling it the Maelstrom…as it usually brings in everything, whether it be good or bad." Naruto shrugged. "Besides my name means Spiraling Maelstrom anyway."

"Hmm…sounds good to me." Mirage stated while Terra nodded with a smirk.

A half hour after the trio left the mountains, a bald man in a wheel chair came rolling out of a huge jet that land there. A dark skinned woman with white and a muscular man walked out after him.

"I don't sense her around here." The bald man said.

"The trail is old, Xavier. The cloth that Black Eagle gave us is useless as her scent is old and probably left with these other two scents I am picking up."

"I see. We should go before anything happens around here. I just hope who ever she followed is trustworthy." Xavier said as the three of them went back to the jet and left.

End...Review. Short chapters i know, but i might make them longer as they go.
