Chapter 1: Pilot
Earth 8990
The Elemental Nations, a war torn world filled with people capable of doing extraordinary things, at least it used to be. 3 world wars the planet had survived but the 4th war was to much, what was once a world filled with nature was now a barren wasteland with a gigantic burning tree, the world's population had dwindled down to one person, that person was 21 year old ANBU Black Ops Captain Commander Naruto Uzumaki, jinchurriki of Kurama, the Kyuubi no Kitsune, holder of all 9 Biju chakra,
Naruto was the sole surviving person to escape the wrath of Kaguya Ootsutsuki, he and Sasuke had managed to seal her but before she left she had sent four of her ash killing bones at him and his team, without their notice, Naruto's whose knee was a little banged up sat down for Kurama to heal it, causing the bone aimed at him to go over his head, while his teammates weren't so lucky as they had been struck and turned to ash seconds after leaving him watching in horror.
That was five years ago, Hagoromo never reappeared no matter how loud he screamed for his help. Naruto traveled around learning everything he could that could help him free the people of the Elemental Nations but nothing helped which lead to the burning of the tree, as this way he was ending their suffering.
Currently Naruto was standing in a large seal watching the tree, with chakra gone from the world, and everyone being connected to the tree Naruto was down to his last resort, abandon his world for a new one to start over.
Channeling a shit load of chakra into the seal, Naruto vanished in a bright white flash

Starling City General
Billionaire Robert Queen paced the hallway of the Hospital as his wife Moira screamed in pain from childbirth, "What was I thinking, we just had Oliver a year ago, now we are bringing another one into the world." Robert thought shaking his head before a smile came upon his face "I'll love this child all the same."
Robert stopped pacing when he heard the cry of a new born, just as a nurse walked put smiling at him "Congratulations Mr. Queen it's a boy."
Robert smiled brightly as he was lead into the room, to see his beautiful wife smiling down at a bundle "Moira?'
"Robert, he's so beautiful." Moira said allowing Robert to see their baby who looked around the room his deep blue eyes holding some intelligence in them which surprised Robert, who also took notice of the three whisker like marks on the babe's cheeks
"Are those whiskers?" Robert asked
"Yes, the most unique set of birthmarks I've ever seen." a nurse nodded as Robert looked back down to his child who grabbed his finger with a surprisingly strong grip
"So have you decided on a name?" the nurse asked just as thunderstruck reminding them of the storm outside one of the worst Starling City has ever had
"Naruto." Moira said having remembered the word from one of her trips to Japan and it's meaning "His name will be Naruto Queen."
The nurse looked confused at the foreign sounding name but shrugged as it wasn't her business "How about Nathaniel, and Naruto be a family name?" Robert asked causing Moira to look thoughtful before she nodded in agreement
"Welcome to the family little guy." Robert said holding his baby and smiling down at him before he looked to his wife smiling brightly when the baby smiled at him missing the infants eyes flashing to a scarlet red color with 3 black tomoe in each eye
26 Years Later
Lian Yu
On an remote island, known as Purgatory all was silent while in a camp sight a man wearing a green hood, with dirty blonde locks being seen spiling out cooked his fish, before he paused and looked up "A ship?" a raspy male voice said before in a show of speed impossible for normal human beings the man rushed forward before he kicked the side of a tree and jumped to a branch and began to hop from tree to tree his form blurring as he sped forward before he came through the brush and landed on a small mountain top looking over the ocean to see a small fisher ship close by before in a blur of speed his hands went through hand seals and he took a deep breath before a large fire ball shot from his mouth striking the pyre on the beach, causing it to erupt in an inferno catching the attention of the fisherman who decided to investigate, causing the man to smirk before he jumped forward TO meet the fisher men
My name is Nathaniel Queen, in a old life I was Naruto Uzumaki, proud Konoha Shinobi, after I used the seal to find a new home, I was born to Robert, and Moira Queen ,with my chakra surprisingly still intact, it seemed that when I traveled to this world the chakra from the Biju I had gained fused with my body, technically making me the new Shinju, however I never really saw myself needing my chakra, sure the clones and the Sharingan I gained were blessings in this world but I didn't really need to fight here. Until I was thrown back into the mess of things when my douchebag of an elder brother Oliver dragged me onto our father's ship, unfortunately when the ship went down a pipe had ran Oliver through killing him instantly, Sara his girlfriends sister was swept overboard, and my father committed suicide after telling me to fix his mistakes and be better then him.
For 5 long years I've been getting back in shape, for when the time came for me to inevitably return to Starling, It is now that time, anf those who wish to harm the innocent people of my city will learn to fear me.
5 Days Later
Starling City
"Nathaniel Queen is alive. The Starling City resident was found by fishermen in the North China Sea five days ago. Five years after he was presumed dead following the accident at sea which claimed The Queen's Gambit. Queen was a tabloid presence and fixture on the club scene.. Queen is the son of Starling City billionaire Robert Queen who was also on board but now officially confirmed as deceased, along with his elder brother Oliver who also is now officially confirmed as deceased." the news report said
Hospital
Moira Queen stood in the hallway looking at her baby boy, as he stood at the window watching the city, his hair was cut, back in its natural spiky golden blonde style with bangs framing the side of his face (Minato's hairstyle)
"He's perfectly healthy, no scars or fractures, his mental state is all you should worry about, it's best to prepare yourself Moira, the Nathan you lost, might not be the one they found." a doctor said
Moira turned to look at him "Has he said anything?" she asked
"Nothing." the doctor said causing Moira to nod before she entered
"Naruto?" Moira asked before Naruto turned to face her and smiled softly
"Hi, Mom." Naruto said softly walking over as she teared up
"Oh. My beautiful boy." Moira cried before she and Naruto embraced with Naruto smiling softly as a tear streamed from his eye listening to Moira sob, as she kissed his cheek
Morning
Naruto dressed in a long sleeve black shirt, black slim fit Levi jeans and Nike Blazers walked into his home after his mother "'Your room is exactly as you left it. I never had the heart to change a thing." Moira said looking to Naruto who smiled at her before he saw a picture of Oliver, and Robert causing him to frown which Moira noticed sadly
"Nathan."
Naruto looked over to see a bald African American man in a suit walk over "Damn good to see you."
Naruto looked at the man before he looked to Moira who looked a bit nervous, looking back to the man he asked "Who are you?"
"It's Walter. Walter Steele." Walter said
"You remember Walter. Your father's friend from the company." Moira said causing Naruto to nod slowly before he saw a maid in the threshold and smiled walking over
"It's good to see you, Raisa." Naruto said as the maid took his hands into her owns with a bright smile
"Welcome home, ." Raisa said giggling when his eyebrow twitched "I see you still hate formalities."
Naruto nodded and tried to find the right words but settled for "It's a working progress." he said causing her to smile before she looked to Moira
" phoned. He wants to join you for dinner." Raisa said
"Wonderful." Moira nodded while a door closing caused Naruto to look up toward the stairs and walk over to the steps "Naru? Did you hear that?"
Naruto remained silent as a teenage girl appeared at the top of the stairs "Hi." Naruto said
The girl began to tear up as she came down the stairs "I knew it. I knew you were alive." she said jumping into his arms as he hugged her tightly "I missed you so much." she sniffled
"I thought about you every single day." Naruto said causing her to tighten her arms around him
Later
Naruto just got out of the shower, and walled to his mirror and dragged his hand across it wiping rhe fog away allowing him to see himself, before he activated his Sharingan
Flashback
2007, Queens Gambit
Naruto was meditating in his room on the yacht when he opened his eyes and walked outside looking at the storm that was raging "We should head back." he said to himself walking inside to see his dad and Oliver talking "You know, son that is not going to finish well, for either of them or for you."
"He'll figure it out on his own." Naruto said getting their attention
"What jealous?" Oliver smirked
"Of what, the fact that you just ruined a relationship between two sisters, or the fact that the only woman who truly loved you is going to tear into you as soon as she sees you, which I can't wait to see." Naruto said causing Oliver to frown
"Boys, boys, please." Robert said causing them to look at him
"We should head back dad, I got a terrible feeling." Naruto said
"You said that when we were getting on board." Oliver replied as Naruto looked at his dad with a frown
"Relax, Naruto we are heading back now." Robert said causing Naruto to nod his head as Robert walked off
"Your such a pussy." Oliver said to his little brother
"And your a bitch ass talentless playboy whose only saving grace is the fact that he was born into money." Naruto retorted walking away from a glaring Oliver who scoffed and walked back to Sara
End Flashback
Naruto was now looking at a picture of Oliver and his dad, "To think, calling him a bum, was the last thing I said to him." he thought guiltily, before he looked up when his friend, best friend Tommy walked in
"What did I tell you? Yachts suck." Tommy said causing Naruto to smile and turn to him
"Tommy Merlyn." Naruto greeted hugging the man in a brotherly fashion
"I missed you, buddy." Tommy said laughing
Later
Naruto, Tommy, and Thea sat across from Walter and Moira as Tommy caught Naruto up "Okay, what else did you miss? Super Bowl winners: Giants, Steelers, Saints, Packers, Giants again. A black president, that's new." Tommy said as Naruto nodded watching as Walter poured his mother a glass of wine "Oh, and Lost. They were all dead. I think."
"What was it like there?" Thea asked causing everyone else to stop and look at him
"Cold, and lonely." Naruto said causing Thea to look at him sadly along with his mother
"Tomorrow, you and me do the city. You've got a lot to catch up on." Tommy said causing Naruto to nod
"Great idea." Moira said
"Good. I was hoping to swing by the office." Naruto said catching how Walter froze before he spoke
"There's plenty of time for all that. Queen Consolidated isn't going anywhere." Walter said causing Naruto to look over at him
"But it is The Queen Families company is it not? So as the last Queen son, I have the right to walk in and see the company I'll be taking charge of when I decide too." Naruto said staring Walter dead in the eye
"Okay, so what else you miss?" Tommy asked himself hoping to change the subject as tension suddenly filled the room
"Apparently my mother's wedding." Naruto said causing Moira, and Walter to look at Thea
"I didn't say anything." Thea said
"She didn't have to." Naruto said pointing to Walters hand "You're wearing a wedding ring, have been here before I even walked in the house, and moments ago was blatantly pouring my mother a glass of wine."
Walter cleared his throat as he shifted uncomfortably, while Thea smiled and was a little amazed along with Tommy how Naruto was able to piece everything together
"Naru, Walter and I don't want you to think that either one of us, did anything to disrespect your father." Moira said gently
"I don't care mom." Naruto said looking at her, as she frowned "Does he make you happy?"
Moira glanced to Walter and looked back to Naruto nodding her head "Yes, yes he does."
"Then, I have nothing to say about it." Naruto said standing up "I need some air." kissing Thea's forehead and tapping Tommy's shoulder Naruto walked off
Midnight
Walter, and Moira walked into Naruto's room to see him asleep in his bed, as he flinched in his sleep while it thundered outside "Ollie,...Sara...no."
Flashback
"Aah!"
Naruto sprung up at the feminine scream and ran outside to see everyone running, as a red emergency light flashed repeatedly. Sprinting down the hallway he opened the door to see a pipe had fallen through Oliver's room and ran him through while Sara was on the ground sobbing
"Sara! Come on, the ship is going down."
'Ollie, he's dead!" Sara sobbed
"Sara, if we don't move we will be too, now come on!" Naruto said just as the ship turned over causing him to fall over onto the wall and Sara fell through a window and water flooded the room, "Sara!"
Naruto swam up to Oliver's body and closed his eyes looking at him sadly before he swam up breaching the surface "Sara! Sara!" he shouted looking around
"Nathan! Nate!" Robert yelled in a lifeboat causing Naruto to turn around and swim over and get in before he saw Sara wasn't inside
"Sara!" Naruto turned and shouted about to jump back in to save his friend but Robert grabbed him "No! No! No, dad, she's out there!"
"She's not there." Robert yelled crying himself knowing that Oliver was dead
"Sara!" Naruto yelled looking at the yacht as it went down
"They're gone." Robert said sadly
End Flashback
Naruto was flinching more heavily screaming for Sara, and Robert, when Moira touched him "Nate! Wake up."
On instinct Naruto grabbed Moira and tossed her onto the bed and was over her with his fist raised "Nathaniel!" Walter screamed as Naruto looked down at Moira in horror before he quickly got away from her and huddled into a corner
"I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry." Naruto said hugging his knees to his chest
Moira looked at her son sadly and approached him and when she touched him he flinched before she pulled him into a hug "No, it's okay, Naruto. It's all right, sweetheart. You're home." Moira said as she clutched onto him tightly wondering what he's been through
Morning
After giving Thea, a rock called a Hozen, and a orange crystal necklace Naruto and Tommy went out, before he convinced Tommy to take him to see Laurel, his one night stand, Oliver's ex girlfriend and Sara's sister, currently he was walking down the street with her "So you went to Law School?"
"5 Years and that's what you want to talk about?" Laurel asked
"No." Naruto said looking at her sadly "I'm sorry about Sara."
"Are you?"
"Sara was my best friend, I had no idea that she was on the Gambit, until an hour into the trip."
"And I'm supposed to believe that? After what happened between us, Oliver decided to screw my little sister?"
"I never told Oliver that we slept together, trust me I would've loved to, but I didn't. I gave you my word."
"That used to mean something." Laurel said as Naruto looked at her seriously "We buried an empty coffin, because her body was in the bottom of the ocean where you left her. It should've been you."she spat but immediately regretted it when a dead expression came over Naruto's face, and she flinched seeing his eyes
"Have a good day, Dinah." Naruto said coldly walking away
Laurel stood there as she watched Naruto leave regretting what she said, as Naruto had been the responsible good brother, who was a bit of a playboy, but was very respectful when he needed to be, when his temper was in check, and he always looked out for Sara, with a sigh she walked back to work
With Naruto
Naruto and Tommy walked to Tommy's car, "We took care of that. Good call. Now we can make up for lost time." Tommy said as Naruto took deep breath "If you're not sick of fish let's find some leggy models and eat sushi off them. What do you say?"
Naruto made to speak but a van pulled up. ehind them, and masked men got out "What the hell?" Naruto asked just as he and Tommy were shot with tranquilizers
Naruto fell to his knees looking up before his eyes widened when an elderly man walked out and saw what was going on "Hey!" he yelled only for one of the three men to open fire with his assult rifle, causing the man to die before he hit the ground whole Naruto glared up at the man just as a hood was put over his face
Flashback
2007
Naruto sat beside his dad, with his head in his lap, as tears streamed down his face, the reality of Oliver's death kicking in, he couldn't think if Sara being dead, there was always the chance she was just adrift somewhere in a piece of debris and hopefully she'd find away home and be safe.
"Here, son." Robert said handing Naruto a water bottle "Drink."
Naruto opened the water and took a sip
"What the hell are you doing? That's all we've got." the surviving crewmen shouted
"If anybody's making it out of here, it's gonna be him." Robert said glaring at the man before he looked to Naruto "I'm so sorry, I thought I'd have more time. I'm not the man you think I am. I didn't build our city. I failed it. And I wasn't the only one."
Naruto rose an eyebrow in confusion
End Flashback
"Mr. Queen?" a muffled male voice said causing Naruto's eyes to snap open just as the hood was yanked off his face "Mr. Queen?!"
Naruto looked around as a man held a taser in his face, and saw Tommy on the ground unconscious but alive "Did your father survive that accident? I ask the questions. You give me the answers." the man with the taser said before he tased Naruto who groaned "Did he make it to the island? Did he tell you anything?"
The man quickly tased Naruto again only to stop when Naruto began to laugh and step back looking to his partners "Yes, he did. "
"What did he tell you Mr. Queen?" the man asked before he saw Naruto smirk and pain, followed by darkness was all he knew
Naruto yanked his kunai from the man's forehead, and used his body as a shield when his partner opened fire, before he spun around the man and slit the second man's throat, while the last man the old man ran, while Naruto ran over to Tommy and checked for a pulse, finding one he stood up activated his Sharingan, and saw the man running, running wind Chakra through his blade he sent it through the wall, and watched as it pierced the man's head before a seal lit up on the handle of the kunai and it vanished in a puff of smoke, before in a flash of speed Naruto was back zip tied to the chair just as Tommy awoke none the wiser that his friend had just slaughtered 3 people, armed with assault rifles, with only a kunai
Later
Queen Manor
Naruto, Tommy, Moira, and Walter sat in the comfort room with Dt. Lance father of Laurel, and Sara the man was shooting dirty looks at Naruto who told him of a man wearing a mask and a hood had saved him and Tommy,
"So that's your story?" Lance asked in disbelief "A guy in a black hood, and a mask covering the bottom of his face flew in and single-handedly took out three armed kidnappers? I mean, who is he? Why would he do that?"
"Hell if I know. Find him, and you can ask." Naruto said annoyed at the dirty looks he was being given from the man
"What about you? You see the hood guy?" Lance asked Tommy who just shook his head
"I saw nothing, when I woke up the guys were dead, Naruto was zip tied to the chair, and that's it.
"Yeah." Lance nodded before he glared at Naruto "It's funny, isn't it? One day back and somebody's gunning for you. Aren't you popular?"
"It's a gift and a curse." Naruto shrugged nonchalantly
Lance made to shout at Naruto but Moira spoke "Were you able to identify the men?"
"Scrubbed identities. Untraceable weapons. These were pros." Lance's partner said
"Yeah. They figured you'd pay a king's ransom to get your boy back. Or a Queen's ransom, as it were. After all, a parent would do anything to keep their child safe." Lance said glaring at Naruto
"Are you alright Mr. Lance?" Naruto asked looking the man in the eye "Maybe you shouldn't be the one leading this case since it seems you wouldn't give a rats ass if I would've died today."
"You listen here you son-"
"Quentin." Lance's partner hissed stopping his partner
"Mr. Lance, seem to share the habit of projecting your anger onto me, when I've done nothing wrong to your family. Oliver tool Sara onto the yacht not me. Is your anger justified? Without a shadow of doubt it is, but the man your angry at is dead...so get the hell out of my house and go do your job." Naruto said with a frown while Quentin stood up and left along with his partner, as Naruto stood up, and watched after him, Moira catching the tear that slipped from his eye frowned sadly as he walked away
Next Day
Naruto wearing a black v-neck, black jeans, and a leather jacket walked out the house, ready to leave when he stopped when Moira called his name "Nathan!"
Turning around he saw her and Walter walking toward him from a buff, African American man standing with a stiff posture "I'd like you meet someone. This is John Diggle, he'll be accompanying you from now on."
"I really don't need a babysitter mom." Naruto said
"Darling, Nathaniel is a grown man. If he doesn't feel he needs armed protection," Walter butted in
"You know, I understand but this is something I need." Moira interrupted looking at Naruto who glanced to Diggle before he sighed looking to his mother
"Fine." Naruto said causing Moira to smile before she kissed his cheek and walked away
Moments Later
Naruto sat in the back of the Rolls-Royce while Diggle drove "So what do I call you?" Naruto asked making conversation
"Diggle's good...Dig, if you want." John said
"You're ex-military?" Naruto asked looking out the window before he smirked
"Yes, sir. 105th Airborne out of Kandahar, retired. Been in the private sector a little more than four years now. I don't want there to be any confusion. My ability to keep you from harm will outweigh your comfort. Do we have an agreement?...Sir?... Sir?" John not hearing a response looked back only to see Naruto was gone and immediately slammed on the breaks and got out looking for his charge
Abandoned Queen Industrial Warehouse
With Naruto
Naruto walked into the warehouse, and paused seeing a note on the door "Have weapons, and your suit ready. Good luck beloved. Love T."
Naruto smiled at the note that was left by Talia, walking inside he saw a salmon ladder, lots of other workout equipment, and a wall with different types of swords, a bow and lots of arrows, and numerous kunais, and other types of knives.
Seeing a box on a desk, Naruto walked over and opened it to see a porcelain fox mask, a black long sleeve Kevlar shirt with an Uzumaki swirl on the back, and Anbu pants, with black bracers; black fingerless gloves; black shinguards; black combat boots;
Naruto whistled in appreciation of his outfit, picking up the mask he smirked and placed it on his face immediately his hair turned red, while his Sharingan could be seen in the eye holes, (See cover image for mask)
"I like this." Naruto said taking the mask off, and dispelling the illusion he put on his hair returning it to its natural golden blonde color, before he immediately wrote a seal inside the forehead of the mask, and snapped it in half, watching in satisfaction as it immediately repaired itself back to top condition, before he attempted to snap it again, but was met with resistance as the mask was stronger then before causing him to smirk
Naruto placed his mask down, and stood up, he held up his hand in a ram seal and 20 Shadow Clones appeared in a puff of smoke "Get to Chakra control exercises." he ordered which the clones immediately began to do, while Naruto himself meditated for a few hours, before he walked to the desk, and pulled out his father's book, where names were written on every page, before his attention went to the news coverage that had Laurel's face on it along with some bald middle aged guy
"The suit alleges Hunt committed acts of fraud and theft against the underprivileged. Laurel Lance, attorney for the city," putting the TV on mute, Naruto looked to his father's book, and found the name Adam Hunt
After researching his target, Naruto began to get ready "Adam Hunt's crimes go deeper than fraud and theft but he's been able to bully, bribe, or kill anyone who's gotten into his way. Let's see you deal with me." Naruto said placing his mask on causing his hair to turn red, while his eyes changed into the Sharingan,
Later
Parking Lot
Adam Hunt, and 3 men walked toward his limousine "Remind Grell I put him on the bench. I can take him off. I will turn him into a cautionary tale." Adam said
"Yes, Mr. Hunt." his lapdog said
"And this attorney, Laurel Lance? You said she wasn't gonna be a problem anymore. I told you to fix that situation." Adam said before he glared at the man who looked at him "Why are you still here?"
The man quickly ran off, while Adam and his two guards walked away, but the lights burst into sparks when Shuriken were thrown at them, causing Adam and his men to look up in bewilderment, before a kunai struck a man in his ribs, causing him to grunt and fall
"Get in the car!" Adam's other guard ordered opening the door allowing Adam to get inside, and as soon as the door was closed the man opened fire at where he thought the attacker was
"Hey, you missed." a dark voice behind him, before his head was slammed through the window of the car, causing Adam to shout in surprise before he was grabbed and thrown to the ground to see a black figure with a tanto in hand ontop of the car,
"Woah! woah! woah!" Adam shouted as the figure was now standing over him "Look, just- Just tell me what you want."
Adam grunted when the man grabbed him by his throat and held him up so that he was looking into the dark eye holes of a fox mask "You're gonna transfer $40 million into Starling City Bank account - 1141 by 10 p.m. tomorrow night."
"Or what?" Adam asked
"Or I'm gonna take it. And you won't like how. This is your only warning, do the smart thing." the man said walking away as Adam breathed a sigh of relief but needing to get the last word he shouted
"If I see you again, you're dead!" Adam yelled only for the man to continue walking and flick his arm back, before Adam gasped in pain, when a kunai cut his cheek right under his eyes, looking back clutching his face he saw the blade embedded handle deep into his limousines trunk,
Later
Adam's Office
Lance, and his partner were in front of Adam who had a bandage on his cheek "He was wearing a black hood, and some creepy fox mask, he had a sword." Adam said and saw the detectives look at each other "What, you don't believe me?" he asked picking up the kunai and handing handing it to Lance's partner "That maniac put one of my men in the hospital, and the other in the morgue."
"Well, thanks for your statement. We'll put out an APB on a ninja." Quentin said sarcastically
"Hey, pal, I'm not some grocer who got taken for his register. I go to the front of the line." Adam said glaring at Quentin "He said he'd be back here by 10 p.m. Make sure you're here first. You can coordinate with , my new head of security."
Quentin, and his partner looked over to the man who nodded, "All right. Well, uh, thanks for your time." Quentin said as he and his partner left
"Looks like Queen was telling the truth." Quentin's partner said looking at the kunai
"Yeah, well, there's a first time for everything." Quentin said still sore on how Nathan had talked to him "This hooded guy comes looking for trouble, he'll find it."
Later
Queen Manor
Naruto walked out of the house, in a white button up, black jeans, and white/black Maison Margiela 22 Future Hightops walking to the Rolls-Royce he opened the door to see Diggle in the back seat "Put on your seatbelt, sir. Wouldn't want you to miss your party."
Naruto smiled as he got in, chuckling
Club
Naruto walked into the party checking his phone to see he had an about 50 minutes to party, putting his phone up he looked up just as a spotlight was put on him, as Tommy ran over queuing the DJ to cut the music as everyone turned to him and Tommy "Everybody, hey! Man of the hour! And, ladies, please give this man a proper homecoming."
Naruto smiled as 4 very beautiful women lead him to a table as We Are The Champions played, getting onto the table Naruto smiled "Thank you very much, everybody!"
"Nate!" Tommy called handing Naruto a shot of Tequila, knocking the shot back Naruto smiled
"I missed tequila!" Naruto yelled causing everyone to shout and raise their glasses, "Dj, play the music, I've been gone for 5 long years and I have a lot to catch up on!"
The music played as Naruto got off the table, and began to mingle
Across the Street
Adam was still in his office, and took drinking a glass of Scotch, his hand shaking as he noticed he had 30 minutes left, while his men loaded their assault rifles walking over to the window he looked down to the club and frowned "What the hell's going on out there?"
"Across the street. Party for the guy they rescued off that island. Nathan Queen." Drackon said
Club
Naruto was talking to some old friends who showed up to support him when Tommy walked over and pointed to Digg who was watching him like a hawk "Hey, does he wipe for you too?" he asked causing Naruto to shake his head before Tommy took him by the shoulder ND turned him to the girls dancing on the table "Now, by my rough estimate, you have not had sex in 1839 days. As your wing man, I highly recommend Carmen Golden."
"Which one?" Naruto asked
"She looks like the chick from Twilight." Tommy said
"What's Twilight?" Naruto asked
"You're so better off not knowing." Tommy said causing Naruto to smile
"I'll take your word for it." Naruto said before he frowned when he saw Thea talking to someone who reached into his pocket,
"Back in a minute." Naruto said walking over to his sister who was about to take drugs from some punk, before his hand shot out and grabbed the man's fingers and clenched them tightly
"Aye man!" the man groaned as Naruto took the drugs from his hand
"Naruto!" Thea called shock as she and her friends watched along with Diggle, and Tommy
"You have three choices, option 1 I call the cops, and tell them you were about to give drugs to minors who shouldn't even be here. Option 2, we walk outside, and I beat your ass for attempting to give my baby sister drugs, or Option 3 you walk the duck out of here right now. Chose quickly because I want the second the choice." Naruto said glaring at the man
"Okay, man chill out I'll leave." the man said before Naruto released him
"Don't let me see you again." Naruto said as the MA. quickly left while Naruto looked to Thea
"Who let you in here?" Naruto asked frowning
"I'm not 12 anymore." Thea said
"No, you're 17." Naruto retorted
"Nate, I love you, but you can't come back here and judge me. Especially for being just like you, and Ollie." Thea said
"And look where that got us." Naruto said before he sighed and ran a hand through his hair "Look, I know it wasn't easy when I was...dead, and you probably found this as a way to cope, but I don't like it, and I will be there to ruin your buzz everytime I catch you, do you understand me?"
Thea looked at Naruto and wanted to argue but couldn't as he motioned for Diggle "See to it that my sister and her friends get home safely." Naruto said causing Diggle to look like he wanted to protest "I'm at a party with nothing but beautiful women around, get my sister home safely Dig, and come back. I won't dissappear. Scouts Honor."
Diggle looked at Naruto for a moment and nodded before he lead the girls out of the club, shaking his head Naruto walked to the trash and tossed the drugs away before he made to head back to the party but bumped into Laurel "You're here. Why are you here?" Naruto asked
"Tommy. He made the point that we have too many years between us to leave things the way we left them." Laurel said causing Naruto to nod slowly, taking note of Tommy watching jealously from the bar "Is there some place quieter that we could go?"
"Yeah." Naruto nodded before they walked off,
Moments Later
Naruto was leaning on the rail of the top floor overlooking the party as Laurel stood beside him "I'm sorry about saying that you should've been the one who died. That was wrong. I was projecting my anger at Oliver onto you, and that was wrong."
"I had hoped that when she was swept overboard that may she was adrift on a piece of debris and found by someone and returned safely to you and your family." Naruto said causing Laurel to look at him "I hated Oliver for years, he ruined your relationship with Sara, and got her killed. You were right when you said it should've been me, because I failed her I sometimes think if I had never approached you both that day all those years ago at the mall, this pain wouldn't have been visited upon you and your parents."
Laurel looked at Naruto sadly watching as he laughed mirthlessly blinking the tears away from his eyes "If you need someone to talk to about what happened to you, I'm here."
Naruto looked at her before his phone vibrated and he checked it to see it was 10:00 and no money had been deposited into the account causing him to frowm
"Something wrong?" Laurel asked
"People wanting interviews." Naruto said putting his phone in his pocket before he looked at her seriously "I would like that Laurel, I really would, but I think it's best if you stay away from me, my family has put you through enough, and the last thing I want to do is hurt you anymore."
Laurel made to speak but Naruto kissed her before she could, and the two began to make out passionately before he pulled away leaning his forehead against hers as they breathed heavily "That'll hold me together for another 5 years." Naruto said kissing her forehead before he walked off leaving Laurel to watch after him sadly
Naruto secretly created a clone, and sent it back to the party while he slipped out
Adam Hunts Building
Drackon was putting the men into position, "You two cover the elevator. Hang back and be ready. Stay in the corners and stay alert." Drackon said walking to Hunts office and closing the doors before he activated the security system "It's past 10. He's never getting in here."
Adam nodded and turned to look out the window missing the three pronged kunai that struck the wall with an audible crack
Quentin and his partner were in front of the building with a few other cops waiting "All's clear." Quentin nodded
"Yeah." his partner said
With Adam
Adam was calming down figuring the man was all talk, but the lights suddenly cut out caused his nerves to act up once again
As the elevator ding everyone waited for someone to come out, but instead Naruto in his suit, walked out of a dark corner and punched a man in the back of his head, before throwing two kunai at the guards who aimed their guns at him, causing the blades to stab their hands drawing screams of pain, before he knocked the out with a double lariat, and quickly brought out his one of his twin wazikashi blades and deflected the bullets before he vanished in a burst of speed and appeared behind the man and slammed the but of his sword into his head, before he kicked him through the glass doors of Adam's office causing the man to be lit up with gunfire, entering Naruto tossed a kunai into a man's chest, before he ducked under a swing and elbowed his attackers knee causing it to cave in, before Naruto tossed him away, and tossed a dart at Adam who ducked while Naruto held his blade at him when he stood up
"You missed!" Adam said
"Think so?" Naruto asked before he was tackled by Drackon and the two began to fight while Adam eased out of the room and made a call to Quentin
"He's here!" Adam said frantically
Downstairs
"All units converge. All units converge." Quentin yelled as he and his fellow law enforcement officers ran to the building
Naruto ducked under Drackon's wild swing, and begin to Bob and weave through the man's wild attacks, before he grabbed the man's arm when he attempted a right cross, and yanked him forward and an unforgiving elbow to his nose causing the man to fall to the ground but Naruto immediately dodged back and rolled out of the way when the man sprang an Uzi on him and began to squeeze the trigger, before he dove over the desk while tossing a kunai back which embedded itself between Drackon's eyes, while Naruto groaned looking down to his torso, to see the bullets had been stopped by his armor but it still stung
Taking deep breaths Naruto calmed himself, before he looked up wh. he heard multiple rushing footsteps "Lay down your weapons or we will open fire. I repeat, lay down your weapons!" Quentin yelled, only for Naruto to get up and run causing the cops to immediately began shooting but they were shocked when he jumped through the window
Rushing over Quentin and his partner saw the black figure glide across the street and land on the rooftop of the building when the Queen's party just so happened to be "Tell me you saw that." Quentin's partner said
"Okay. Let's go. Move!" Quentin ordered as he and cops ran
Club
Naruto had replaced his clone, without anyone noticing, and currently had 2 girls leaning into his side whose names were Alexis (Nina Dobrev) and Pamela (Shay Mitchell), having a good time, everyone groaned when a S.W.A.T. member ordered the Dj to cut the music
"Search the building. Roof to basement. Find him!" Quentin yelled a as he approached the crowd while Naruto stood up "Starling City police. The party's over, kids! Oh, Mr. Merlyn. Imagine my shock to find you here. Roofie anyone special tonight?" Quentin asked glaring at Tommy who smiled
"Detective." Naruto said walking forward causing Quentin to look at him "This is a private party."
"There was an incident at Adam Hunt's building. Know about that?" Quentin asked suspiciously
"Who's Adam Hunt?" Naruto asked
"A millionaire bottom feeder. I'm surprised you aren't friends."
"Well I am a friendly guy, but I have no new friends seeing as I've been out of town for a while." Naruto shrugged as Tommy chuckled
"Yeah. Well, he just got attacked by the guy with the hood. The guy that saved your ass the other day." Quentin said still glaring at Naruto
"Really, did you catch him?" Naruto asked only for Quentin to glare, "Shame, I would really like to speak with him."
"Did you even try to save her?" Quentin asked stepping into Naruto's face
"Okay, let's go partner." Quentin's partner said starting to pull him away
"Did you even try to save my daughter?" Quentin asked
"I guess you'll never know." Naruto said causing Quentin to try to rush him but his partner and a other officer pulled him away
"Sara wouldn't want this. Let's go." his partner said
"Now that, that is over with, Let's party!" Naruto yelled getting cheers from everyone just as the music started but Tommy grabbed his shoulder
"Some coincidence. You asking to have your party here and Hunt getting robbed next door. And by the same guy who rescued us at the warehouse." Tommy said
"I know right." Naruto said smiling as Alexis, and Sally appeared by him, and he wrapped an arm around there shoulders "Don't worry about it Tommy, if I were you, Tommy, I'd just be glad you're alive."
"What happened to you on that island?" Tommy asked with a frown
Naruto winked at Tommy and left with the two girls
Next Morning
Adam Hunt was enraged as he yelled into his phone "What the hell are you talking about? Forty million dollars doesn't just up and vanish...Untraceable? It is $40 million. Find it!"
Slamming his phone onto his desk, he sat down putting his face into his hands "How did he do it?" he asked unwary of the dart Naruto had tossed at him was sticking to his wall, and a small light was blinking on it
Queen Manor
Naruto sat at the foot of his bed, looking at his tablet, as he remotely drained Adam Hunts bank accound, and split it up between all the people he had extorted
Crossing with a smirk he closed the window, and placed his tablet down and looked to the picture of him and his dad on his desk
Flashback
2007
Naruto was on the raft with his dad, and the crew worker, trying to sleep, while his dad watched the crew worker who was leaning on the raft with a hunting knife in hand "There's not enough for all of us." Robert whispered to Naruto
"Save your strength, dad. I can't lose anyone else." Naruto whispered back
"You can survive this. Make it home, make it better. Right my wrongs. But you gotta live through this first. You hear me, Nathan? You hear me, son?"
Naruto was looking at his dad, and nodded slowly "Just rest, Dad. You can't give up." he said closing his eyes to sleep before he heard a gunshot causing him to spring up and see his dad had shot the crew member sending him into the ocean
"Dad?" Naruto asked in shock
"Survive." Robert said putting the gun to his head causing Naruto's eyes to widen as he rushed forward reaching for Robert
"No!" Naruto yelled as the gun went off and his dad killed himself, clutching his body to himself Naruto sobbed, this was the second father who died in front of him
End Flashback
Naruto was snapped out if his flashback when the girls began to kiss his back, and Pamela brought him into a kiss, while Alexis got onto her knees between his legs taking him into her mouth
Later
A man dressed in all black walked over to Moira and spoke "The police failed to identify the men I hired to kidnap Nathaniel. And they never will. Should we arrange another abduction?"
"No. There are other ways of finding out what my son knows." Moira said getting a nod from her accomplice as she looked up to the window of Naruto's bedroom, he and his two guest having been locked in said room all day depite herself she couldn't help but smile, as it was just like old times even though her heart was still broken as her eldest boy was deceased, she still loved Naruto with all her heart
Finished
Naruto has his Chakra don't like, so what. Ninjutsu is for when Meta Humans arrive.
Chapter 2: Martin Somers
Week Later
It's been a week since Naruto had returned, besides sleeping with every beautiful woman he's come across he also has went out to find other names on the list, last night he had found one, and forced the man to return the money he had stolen from innocent people,
Walking toward the foyer tightening his tye, he gave a loud yawn he stretched his arms out "Still tired?" Moira asked
"Well he has been sleeping with everyone since he's been back." Thea said a bit annoyed as Naruto had been killing her fun like he said he would,
"Well its been a few years." Naruto shrugged picking up a pear from the fruit bowl, making to bite into the fruit his attention went to a news report
"Over the past 15 years, Mr. Redmond has withdrawn more than 3O million dollars from the plan's account. Mr. Redmond claims refunding the Halcyon pension plan has always been his intent. But sources say Redmond was coerced by the vigilante."
Naruto looked at the drawing of his mask, and looked to his family "Someone has gotten famous." he said smirking "It's nice to see our culture has improved while I was away."
"The city used to be different. People used to feel safe." Moira said standing up as Walter helped her put her jacket on
"Oh. What's the matter, Mom? Afraid we're gonna be next?" Thea asked smirking
"Do you have any questions, Nathaniel? It's a simple proof of life declaration. Read out a brief statement to the judge and your death in absentia judgment will be voided." Walter said
"It's fine. I've been in a courtroom before. Now can we get this over with, so I can get out of this monkey suit please." Naruto said causing Thea, and Moira to smile knowing of Naruto's hatred for wearing suits, and tuxedos while Walter frowned since all he wore were suits
Later
Courtroom
Naruto stood in front of the bench as everyone from the Lance family, to his own and others watched him as he told the story of what happened "I heard Sara scream, and ran to my brother's room, to find her crying in a corner, while a large pipe had ran Oliver through the heart. I tried to get Sara to come with me to safety but the Ship went over and she fell out the window. I swam to the surface, and my dad pulled me into a life raft, for a few hours we were adrift and in that time my dad kept apologizing for what I don't know, but when he saw that there were only enough food and water for one person he put a gun to his head told me he loved me, and pulled the trigger." Naruto said causing people to gasp and mutter amongst themselves, while Laurel, Tommy, Thea, and Moira looked at Naruto in shock, and horror, while Quentin got up and walked off, only caring about what happened to Sara, he will never forgive the Queen family for what they did to his family "I almost died. I thought that I had because I spent so many days on that life raft before I saw the island. When I reached it, I knew that I was gonna have to live for all of us. And in those five years, it was the thought of my family, and friends that kept me going."
"Your Honor, we move to vitiate the death-in-absentia filed after Oliver's disappearance at sea aboard the Queen's Gambit five years ago." a lawyer said as Naruto looked back to Thea who was wiping her eyes of tears "Unfortunately, we will not be requesting that the declaration of death filed for the petitioner's father, Robert Queen, be rescinded. The Queen family is only entitled to one miracle, I'm afraid."
Naruto frowned and took a deep breath,
30 Minutes Later
After telling his mom that he wasn't up to going to the office, Naruto and Tommy walked out of the court room "Last week you couldn't wait to get to the company."
"Tommy, you really need to stop analyzing me." Naruto said with an annoyed sigh before he looked to the large crowd of reporters "Who is that?"
Tommy raised an eyebrow looking over "Martin Somers. Laurel's prosecuting him." he said
Naruto nodded and glanced over his shoulder at Diggle who was behind him, tapping Tommy's shoulder Naruto walked forward, with Diggle on him
"Oh, there's Mr. Queen." a reporter said before they rushed him but he raised a hand
"This is my friend Mr. Diggle, he'll answer all your questions." Naruto said causing Diggle to look at him in shock just as the reporters turned their attention onto him,
"Mr. Queen!" Diggle yelled as recorders were put in his face as he watched Naruto push through the crowd and go to the driver door of the Rolls-Royce, and smirked at him before getting into the vehicle and speeding off
Naruto's Base
Naruto had stopped a few blocks away from the courthouse and left a clone in the car while he got out and immediately went to his base, currently he was reading the journal and narrowed his eyes at the name above Adam Hunt's
Seems Martin Somers, will have an eventful night
Docks
Martin Somers was on a rampage, that bitch lawyer, thinks she's safe just because her dad was some punk-ass cop, well she was in for a rude awakening, turning to his men he spoke "You, listen up. The longer this goes on, the more the media is gonna crucify me. You shut this trial down, understand me?"
"Yes, sir." a man said right before a shurikien took out the light, and when it flickered again, Martin Somers men were unconscious, with a kunai stabbed into the desk, and the man himself was gone
Elsewhere on Docks
Martin groaned as he awoke to find himself hanging upside down, while a figure was spinning a kunai with his index finger "Martin Somers." a dark voice greeted
"Who the hell are you?" Martin asked only to gasp when the man began to walk forward unsheathing a wazikashi
"You've failed this city." Naruto said walking forward as Martin began to struggle
"No, no, no." Martin screamed as Naruto came to a stop right in front of him as Martin felt a tremor of fear run down his spine, as he looked into the glowing red eye holes of the fox mask
"You're going to testify in that trial to having Victor Nocenti killed. There won't be a second warning. You don't want me to come back." Naruto growled before he slashed his sword causing Martin to scream before he grabbed his cheek as blood leaked from the fresh wound, and looked to see he was alone
Queen Manor
Naruto substituted with his clone who was at the mall where it met the beautiful busty Daniella Wang, a Chinese actress and fashion model, going with the flow, Naruto and Daniella walked into the manor, to hear his mother, arguing with Diggle
"I hired you to protect my son. I'm not a bodyguard, but it seems to me the first requirement would be staying next to the man you're hired to protect." Moira said
"With all due respect ma'am, I've never had a client who didn't want my protection." Diggle said
"I hired you. That makes me the client." Moira replied as she paced in front of Diggle "Now, where do you think my son is going on these chaperone-less excursions?"
"Ma'am, I truly do not know." Diggle said as Naruto appeared leaning in the threshold
"And he truly doesn't." Naruto said getting there attention
"Then perhaps you'd like to share with me, you know, where it is you run off to?" Moira said
"Well mom, I've been alone for 5 years, so I've been getting new people and catching up." Naruto said just as Daniella walked in looking amazed "Mom, Diggle this is Daniella Wang."
"Pleasure to meet you." Daniella said shaking Moira's hand as Moira smiled
"Likewise, welcome to my home." Moira said politely
'It's very lovely." Daniella replied
"Can I have a moment with my son please." Moira said
"Sure." Daniella said, before she pecked Naruto's cheek
"Raisa, would you please show my friend to my room please?" Naruto asked his friend/maid who smiled and nodded
"Follow me please." Raisa said before she lead the model away, as Moira frowned at Naruto
"What?" Naruto asked smiling
"You think this is funny?" Moira asked upset
"Mom,"
"It's not safe."
"Mom, I'm not a baby, I can take care of myself." Naruto said
"You've already been abducted once. Your old club fights, have nothing to do with this. There is a maniac out there hunting the wealthy. This isn't a game. I lost you once. And I am not going through that again."
"Okay." Naruto nodded "I promise, Dig, will always have Nathaniel Queen in his field of vision." he said
"Thank you." Moira said about to walk off but Naruto grabbed her wrist causing her to look at him
"I apologize for worrying you, it'll take some time for me to get used to being back here. I'll try better, to get reacquainted with society." Naruto said causing Moira to nod before she hugged him tightly
"I'm just so worry about you." Moira said causing Naruto to nod before she left, and Naruto looked to Diggle
"Night Dig, I'd stick around but I got a beautiful woman waiting upstairs." Naruto said walking off, causing Diggle to scoff and leave
Next Morning
Docks
Martin sat in his office, while , and CSI members were looking around "Well, I owe you an apology, Mr. Somers. We come all the way down to your docks and turns out you don't need the police." Quentin said
"Which is exactly what I've been saying." Martin said coldly sitting in his desk
"So I guess that 911 call we got last night from your stevedores saying you were attacked by a guy in a hood, a fox mask, with some ninja weapons." Quentin said as he looked to a mark in the desk, "I guess that was that a practical joke?"
"These guys like to fool around." Martin shrugged
"Yeah. You know, I'd be very inclined to believe an honest upstanding businessman like yourself except Well, one of my men found this at your docks." Quentin said grabbing a shuriken from an evidence bag "You see, there's this vigilante running around. He thinks he's some kind of ninja version of Robin Hood or something. Robbing the rich. Trying to teach them a lesson, I guess I don't know. But the point is, the man is a killer. And nothing and no one is gonna stop me from bringing him clown." Quentin placed the shuriken into the hole in the desk seeing that it was a perfect fit, and looked up at Martin who frowned "But like you said clearly nothing happened here last night."
"Isn't this a conflict of interest, Detective? After all, your daughter is suing me."
"I'm good at keeping my emotions in check." Quentin lied seeing as he was blaming the innocent brother of a dead man who was the cause of his daughter's death
"I'm not." Martin scowled standing up and glaring at Quentin "You and your daughter don't wanna find out what I'm capable of when I get emotional."
Quentin frowned and with a nod turned away leaving, a bit unsettled
Queen Consolidated
Naruto walked into his family's company with a whistle of awe, as Moira walked beside him arm in arm, ignoring Walter, Naruto looked to the very attractive female employees who were giving him looks of appreciation, and lust, however his gaze locked with a blonde, glasses wearing IT girl, and he winked at her, before smiling as he watched her blush, and walk off
"Ha, ha, are you enjoying yourself?" Moira asked
"Yes, I am." Naruto said as Walter lead them into the office
"I remember your father brought you here when you were a boy."
"Yeah, bored me to sleep." Naruto chuckled as he felt Moira tighten her hold on his arm, causing his smile to widen slightly
"You always were so excited to leave." Walter reminisced
"Yeah, so what have I missed?" Naruto asked
"Well, Queen Consolidated's success of late is a result of its targeted diversification. We have been making impressive inroads in cutting-edge fields like biotech and clean energy."
"That's neat." Naruto nodded
"Naruto, Walter and I have something to discuss with you." Moira said sitting on the couch and patting the seat next to her "Come, please, sit."
Naruto nodded and sat beside Moira, looking at her with a raised eyebrow, before looking to Walter who spoke "The company is about to break ground on a site for the Applied Sciences division. And we would like to honor your father by dedicating the building in his name."
"Nice." Naruto nodded
"And we'd like to make an announcement at the dedication. That you will be taking a leadership position in the company." Moira said
"No." Naruto said shaking his head
"No. Your, your company."Moira said
"I know mom, but I've just returned a week ago, I'm not ready to lead anything." Naruto said looking at her seriously before he gave a smile smile "I will lead the company, just not yet."
Moira nodded with a frown "But how about we start The Robert Queen Foundation."
"The Robert Queen Foundation?" Walter asked
"Yeah, a Foundation that would fund scientific research and help research by providing facilities and training. Also medicine and medical help it'll give annual awards for medical breakthroughs and lifelong commitment, similar to the Nobel Foundation. Also it'll be responsible for the funds and running dozens of other free clinics all over the city and in other trouble cities like the Glades.
Also The Oliver Queen Foundation could be a patron foundation and supporter of arts, families, education and tolerance. The foundation would support and help to run a number of orphanages and free schools, and provides teachers for those who have learning difficulties. Artists could apply for grants from the foundation to help support them in furthering their arts. The foundation could sponsor companies like Family Finders Inc."
'Family Finders?' Walter asked confused
"Family Finders is an organization directed at finding lost people and uniting families." Naruto answered before looking to Moira who looked thoughtful "The foundation could also sponsor and run dozens of soup kitchens within the city." Naruto said
"Nathaniel, I don't thi-"
'I love it." Moira said interrupting Walter who frowned as Naruto smiled brightly
Later
Queen Manor
Naruto was in the kitchen, cutting up some vegetables when he looked up as Thea dressed up walked through "Hey, where you going?" he asked
"Somewhere loud and smokey." Thea said smugly, as Naruto sighed "What're you doing?'
"Well today's the second Tuesday of the month." Naruto said causing Thea to blink in shock "I thought we could hang out, and you could help me catch up on movies?"
Thea looked at Naruto for a minute, every second Tuesday he'd make Tacos, and against there parents wishes let her stay up with him to do anything she wanted "Sure." Thea smiled causing Naruto to grin in return
Naruto and Thea would eat, and watch movies starting off with the Twilight thing Tommy mentioned a week ago, it started off good but when Edward began to sparkle he turned it off, and switched movies much to Thea's amusement, the two would sTay up till 2am till Thea fell asleep he and carried her to her bed and tucked her in
Docks
Martin, was in his office, alone when an Chinese woman wearing a red dress, with white hair walked in "Thank you for coming." he said
"Anything for a friend." the woman replied
"We're not friends. You smuggle drugs. I let you use my port." Martin grunted
"For which you are paid a lot of money." the way shrugged
"I don't get paid enough to have swords swung at me, but fox mask wearing lunatics!" Martin shouted unaware of the woman tensing up at what he said "You need to take this guy seriously. He's a bigger threat than Nocenti ever was."
"Except, now it's Nocenti's daughter who's the problem. Unlike your friend with the mask, we know where to find her." the woman replied
"Don't be an idiot. Take out Emily Nocenti and Lance will never let this go. She won't stop until she burns you, me and the entire triad to the ground." Martin retorted
"Then we kill Ms. Lance." the woman smirked before she turned around and left
Next Day
Queen Manor
Naruto stood in his room, about to change his shirt, when he paused as a news report for Martin came on "Attorney for shipping magnate Martin Somers confirmed his client has no intention of testifying, maintaining innocence in the death of Victor Nocenti. Nocentfs body was found four weeks ago. We'll keep you updated as information becomes available."
Naruto scoffed and began to put on his grey Henley when he heard "Wait, how did you get those?"
"Don't you knock?" Naruto said putting his shirt on, as Thea walked over, and turned him to face her and lifted his shirt to see the faded scars on his body
"Mom said that there weren't any scars."
"Because I told the doctor to tell her that." Naruto said looking down at Thea who looked at the faded scars he allowed to stay on his body
"Naruto, what happened to you out there?" Thea asked looking up at him, as he put his shirt down
"I'm not ready to talk about it, Thea. Just give me some time, okay?" Naruto asked
"I wanna show you something out back." Thea said causing Naruto to raise an eyebrow and follow her out
Backyard
Naruto and Thea walked over to 3 large tombstones, as Thea began to speak "Sometimes when I felt whatever. I'd come here. About a month after the funerals, Morn stopped going out. Pretty soon she stopped talking altogether. The house got so quiet. So I'd come here. To talk to you. Stupid stuff. Like what I was doing that day what boy I had a crush on. And then sometimes, I'd ask you, beg you, to find your way home to me. Now here you are. I see glimpses of the old you, but you can't keep shutting me out, whenever I get to close." Thea said looking at Naruto who frowned "Look, I know it was hell where you were. But it was hell here too. You gotta let me in, Naruto. You gotta let someone in."
Naruto looked from Thea to the tombstone as she walked away
Laurel's Apartment
Laurel was in her living room working like usual, and eating a TV dinner, when there was knocking at her door, causing her to look up and hesitantly walk to the door before she looked through her peephole and sighed before she opened her door to see Naruto standing there
"Hi, are you okay? There are two cop cars outside." Naruto said
"Didn't you tell me to stay away from you?" Laurel asked
"Yea...I,"
"What're you doing here Naruto?" Laurel asked
"Getting reacquainted with everyone has been harder then I thought, and my sister said I need to let someone in." Naruto said
"And you choose me?" Laurel asked
"Well you were the first to offer." Naruto shrugged causing Laurel to scoff, before she stepped out of the way to allow Naruto into her home
Walking in, Naruto smiled as he looked around "Wow, this place hasn't changed at all." he said before he saw a large fox plushy on the couch, and picked it up, before he turned to Laurel with a raised eyebrow "You still have this?"
"What's in the bag?" Laurel asked snatching the fox from him,
"Peace offering." Naruto said opening the bag and pulling out a tub, of cookies and cream ice cream causing Laurel to smile
30 Minutes Later
Naruto sat on the floor while Laurel sat on the couch, both eating ice cream, with Naruto telling her about how everyone wants him to be the same person he was when he left "I mean, I know that I was dead for 5 years, but I can't be the same exact Naruto that I was when I left."
"You've been through a lot." Laurel said remembering how Naruto explained what happened when the boat went down and how he got to the island
"I know, everyone keeps asking me what happened on the island, or analyzing every little thing that I do. Hell, my mom wanted me to take control of the company."
"Tell her no." Laurel said
"Oh, I did, but I get the feeling that the subject will be coming back up soon." Naruto sighed leaning his head back on Laurel's extended leg
"It'll be okay." Laurel said only for Naruto to scoff "Trust me, I have plenty of experience with disapproving parents."
"I have been on the receiving end of your father's disapproval." Naruto replied looking at her
"He blames himself more than he blames you." Laurel said causing Naruto to blink "He thinks that, you know, maybe if he and Sara were closer she would have told him about the boat trip. And he could have stopped her from going with Oliver."
"I am sorry."
"You apologized already, even though you have nothing to be sorry for." Laurel said shaking her head "Sure Sara, and I met you first, but it was my mistake of falling for Oliver, even when I saw how he was. You should forgive him."
Naruto looked at Laurel with a raised eyebrow "Can you?"
"He wasn't my brother." Laurel replied
"No, he was your boyfriend, someone who was never meant to hurt you, but his actions caused the life of your sister. Even if the trip had of gone smoothly, things between you and Sara never would've been the same." Naruto said shaking his head "You, and she deserved better."
"I think I understand why she did it." Laurel said causing Naruto to look at her with a raised eyebrow "When we were kids, Sara, and I loved you, but you were so dense, you couldn't tell."
Naruto's eyebrow twitched as Laurel laughed softly "We got into this big fight over you, and my mom told me that to really love someone is to want them to be happy even if it isn't with you. That's why I decided to date Ollie."
"I still hung out with Sara, while I continued to pine after you, till she gave up on me." Naruto groaned
"Or she did it to make you jealous." Laurel said as Naruto put his head down "She knew that we were sleeping together, and I think that her, going with Ollie was her form of revenge."
"So it is my fault." Naruto sighed
"No, it's not. If we had just been upfront with you from the beginning, Sara would've never got on that boat." Laurel said
Naruto nodded, before he paused and sat up "Did you hear that?" he asked
"What?" Laurel asked as Naruto stood up
"There's someone on the fire escape." Naruto said picking up a knife and walking around the table and grabbing her arm
"Wh-what?" she asked
"Hey, come on." Naruto said taking her with him toward the door just as a man burst through it causing Laurel to gasp, before Naruto lead her to her restroom "Stay down." he said just as the man got up and started firing his Uzi at them, making it to the bedroom a man burst through the window and he immediately lead her back out
But paused when a familiar white haired woman stood in their way with two hook knives in hand, smirking at him, hearing a gun cock Naruto turned back to see the man from the bedroom aiming at him and Laurel, about to fire, just as 2 bullets struck him as Diggle ran in, while the white haired woman ran around as Doggie killed her other partner, and sliced his hand causing him to drop the gun, and the two began to fight with Diggle trying to disarm her but tossed a knife at Laurel causing Naruto to push her away the blade grazing his shoulder
Naruto looked back to Diggle to see him on his back about to be ran through, and tossed the hook knife, at the woman, causing the blade to be knocked out of her hand before she ran off, while Laurel ran into his arms clutching him tightly
Doggie stood up grabbing his gun, when he looked at them "Are you hurt?"
"No." Naruto said
"Are you hurt, Mr. Queen?" Diggle asked
"No." Naruto repeated
"This is why it's a good idea to have a bodyguard." Diggle said before he went to look around for any other intruders
"Hey, you okay?" Naruto asked Laurel who nodded
Minutes Later
Naruto, and Diggle were in the living room as police took pictures, and detectives took there statements, before Quentin came in "Daddy." Laurel said hugging her dad
"Thank God. Thank God. Are you all right?" Quentin asked worried
"I'm okay." Laurel said pulling away and looking at him "Those cops that you put on me."
"They-" Quentin struggled but couldn't speak so he shool his head
"I went outside to ask for a light and they were both dead in the squad car." Diggle said causing Laurel to cover her mouth in horror
"It's all right, honey. It's okay." Quentin said walking over to Diggle "Mr. Diggle, thank you. You feel free to run as many red lights as you want."
"I was doing my job, sir." Diggle nodded shaking the man's hand
"No, your job is protecting him." Quentin said glaring at a frowning Naruto and walked over "It seems like whenever you're with one of my daughters, people die. You stay away from Laurel, or the next time you disappear, it'll be permanent."
"Dad." Laurel said
"No, Laurel." Quentin said still glaring at Naruto
"With all due respect, Quentin. If Laurel doesn't want me around, that is her decision, and until she tells me to stay away, I will always be there for her." Naruto said before he began to walk away placing a hand on Laurel's shoulder as he went while Diggle followed and Quentin glared
Later
Docks
Six guards were posted around all with semiautomatic machine guns, as Naruto in Anbu uniform stood on a shipping container having forgone the cloak, and his dual wazikashi, now wielding a tanto, as midnight black hair swayed in the breeze, and Sharingan eyes glowed in blood lust, Naruto began to walk toward the closest guard
Martin was in his office, getting his money, and all his important documents together while a guard stood there watching him "That triad bitch screwed up the hit on Lance. Now the triad is gonna erase every ounce of evidence of their smuggling operation. Including me. Except that's not gonna happen." Martin said before he looked to the guard "Tell Wallace to get the boat ready. I'm leaving tonight."
Outside
A man was standing ready, and vigilant when Naruto appeared behind him, and knocked him snapped his neck, about to proceed to his next victim he paused when "Wallace? Wallace, you copy?" turning around Naruto walked to the body and found a walkie-talkie and picked it up "Wallace?"
"I told you, you wouldn't want me to come back." Naruto said tossing the walkie and continue on his way
"Hey, whose that?!" a guard yelled up seeing Naruto standing there looking down at him and the others
"Kill em!" another guard yelled before gunfire rang out, as Naruto shot forward, and blood flew while screams of pain followed,
Taking the tanto from the last guards chest, Naruto looked down to see Martin running for his life "SOMERS!" Naruto yelled vanishing in a yellow flash
With Martin
Martin ran for his life, toward his boat, and glanced back to see Naruto walking after him which made him scream in fear, before a kunai caught his leg sending him to the ground with a shout of pain "Oh, God, no, no, no."
"Your god can't help you." Naruto said unsheathing his tanto "So help yourself, I want the truth about Victor Nocenti."
"I can't. The triad will kill me." Martin sobbed pathetically and screamed when Naruto stabbed his blade down next to his neck
"The triad's not your concern right now." Naruto growled
"All right, all right. It wasn't me that killed him. It was the triad." Martin replied
"Acting on whose instructions?" Naruto asked only for Martin to remain silent before he screamed in pain when Naruto stomped on his chest "Whose?!"
"All right, all right. It was mine. It was mine, all right? Nocenti said he was gonna testify against me." Martin said before Naruto looked over his shoulder to see the white haired woman
"Get away from him, Kitsune." she said in Chinese
"Or what?" Naruto asked before the woman swung her hook knife at him, and he leaned back and began to block he'd swings, and ducked under her roundhouse, and swept her leg from under her, before he was on top of her with his hand around her throat
"So now what, are you going to kill me? " the woman asked
"I'm tempted." Naruto said causing rhe woman to smirk before she removed his mask, and looked into the henged face of Itachi Uchiha before she kissed him lustfully and he pulled away just as sirens sounded off "Get out of here."
Naruto took his mask, and placed it back on, and she ran just as police entered and he vanished as well, while Martin who was on the ground having attempted to crawl away was apprehended
Naruto was headed toward the exit, when Quentin appeared and placed his gun at his head "You so much as twitch, and your dead." Quentin said before he smirked "I got you."
"You sure about that?"
Quentin's eyes widened when he was suddenly on his back, with his gun now pointed at him forehead causing him to close his eyes and wait for death,
"It was mine. It was mine, all right? Nocenti said he was gonna testify against me.' he heard and opened his eyes to see himself alone while a small recorder was beside him along with his gun
"Son of a bitch." Quentin said standing up and looking around just as more cops and squad cars arrived
Later
The unveiling of the new building went off without any problems,, without Naruto embarrassing his family or himself, he announced the foundations that would be unveiling and spoke to Laurel and Tommy for a bit before leaving
Finished
Naruto's past defers from Oliver's own, he has history with the Triad, and it's not all good. Also he knows the League of Assassin's is real, not only because of Thalia but because he knows Nyssa as well.
Chapter 3: Floyd Lawton
3 Days Later
Everything had been going slowly in Starling, the only thing noteworthy was that Diggle had quit, having got tired of sitting outside as Naruto went into the homes of models, and actresses, Naruto wasn't broken up about it since he didn't want some glorified babysitter anyway, but if he knew his mother then she'd have a replacement soon
Currently Naruto was making short work of security guards who were hired by millionaire James Holder, whose corporation put defective smoke detectors in low-income housing in the Glades, which caused a lot of people to die currently the man was on his balcony by his pool on the phone "Other than the bill I got handed by my legal team I'm feeling pretty good...Now that this lawsuit's been settled we can focus our attention on Unidac Industries...Okay, I'll see you in the office first thing."
James went to sip his beer, but a Shurriken sliced cleanly through the bottle causing the bottom to fall to the ground and shatter
Looking up James saw the vigilante that's been terrorizing some of his associats standing there looking at him "I have armed security inside. All I have to do is call out."
"Go ahead. They can't hear you." Naruto said dropping three glocks
"What the hell do you want?" James asked looking around to find an escape route
"The courts say you don't owe your victims anything. I disagree." Naruto said walking forward before he noticed a red dot on Holder's chest before he was shot and killed, while Naruto turned just as a bullet was about to peirce his back, and caught the bullet
On a rooftop across the way, the sniper looked up in shock seeing the masked man catch his bullet before he looked back into the scope and opened fire only to realize that the masked man was gone
Queen Manor
Naruto appeared in his room in a yellow flash, having left the foundry, where he had a clone look into the bullet he caught, and hopped into bed and dozed off in no time
Flashback
Lian Yiu, Cave
Naruto groaned awake, last thing he remembered was burying his father, before he was shot in the back, looking down he saw the arrow still in his chest, and groaned as he reached over and pulled it out, before he struggled up to his feet, before he saw a man in a green hood walk in and immediately tossed the arrow at the man who ducked as the arrow impaled into the rock, and rushed the hooded man and slammed him back into the wall, by the arrow which he yanks out of the wall, and aimed at the man's neck
"Who the hell are you?" Naruto glared as the man looked at him in surprise
End Flashback
Morning
Naruto walked into the foyer to see Thea sitting on the couch while Moira, and Walter talked to the police "Thank you, officers. My wife and I appreciate it. I'll see you out." Walter said leading the cops away
"Thank you." Moira said to the cops who nodded and left before she looked to Thea who didn't look bothered "Last time it was public intoxication. This time breaking and entering. My, how we are moving up in the criminal world."
Thea stood up smirking "When you pay off the store owner you should check out the merchandise. They got some pretty killer outfits."
"Thea, go get ready for school." Moira said annoyed
"Uh, you know, I was thinking of taking a sick day." Thea replied
"Fine, then get some sleep." Moira relented causing Thea to nod and walk off before she made eye contact with Naruto who's Sharingan flashed in a split second placing the thought of listening to Moira in the girls head
"Good morning." Thea smirked walking off as Naruto looked to Moira
"Really?" Naruto asked
"When your sister gets like this, it's best to give her her space."
"Mom, you and dad, let me and Oliver get away with a lot, and look how that turned out. Thea doesn't need space she needs a mother." Naruto said causing Moira to look at him before she cleared her throat and changed the subject as a woman walked in behind Naruto
"Right, Naruto I'd like you to meet Mr. Diggle's replacement, Ms. Lyla Michaels"
Naruto turned around to see a familiar woman who he had the pleasure of meeting before, looking at him with a small smirk "Hello." she greeted
Naruto smiled fakely and shook her hand "Nice to meet you." he said before he motioned to the exit "Walk with me."
Lyla nodded and followed Naruto upstairs and as soon as they were out of sight he grabbed her by her throat and slammed her into the wall "What the hell do you think your doing?" he hissed
"You really don't waist time do you?" Lyla asked smiling
"Enough games Lyla, I told Amanda to stay the hell away from me." Naruto growled
"Which is why I'm here. Your still a high threat level she just wants to make sure you don't hurt innocent people." Lyla said
"And she sends her most loyal agent to accomplish this?" Naruto asked
"She thought you'd be more at ease with someone you trust." Lyla said as Naruto gave her a long hard searching look before he released her
"What happened to Diggle?" Naruto asked
"He was drafted into A.R.G.U.S, he has talents that can be used." Lyla said causing Naruto to nod
"So where are we headed to first Mr. Queen?" Lyla asked
"No where at the moment. Still looking into something." Naruto said before he decided to take a shower
James Holder's Place
SCPD were canvassing the homicide scene, while Quentin watched with a frown "It doesn't make sense." he said shaking his head
"Holder fits the profile. Wealthy dirtbag. Red meat for Fox, plus we recovered one ninja star." his partner Lucas said
"Yeah, but this time cause of death is a double tap through the heart and our perp doesn't use firearms." Quentin said
"Maybe he's figured out there's easier ways to kill people than with a ninja stars and a sword. And it's like you said, the guy's a whack job." Lucas shrugged
Queen Foundry
Naruto, Lyla, and Tommy walked into the foundry, and began looking around "What do you think? Great spot for a nightclub or what?" Naruto asked
"Sweet, but if you're thinking calling it Queens, I don't think you're gonna get the clientele you were hoping for." Tommy said causing Naruto to smirk
"Private office." Naruto pointed visualizing his new project
"For the private one-on-one meetings, I would imagine." Tommy asked jokingly
"Hopefully the occasional two-on-one meeting." Naruto nodded causing Tommy to laugh,
"Man, are you sure you wanna do this?" Tommy asked
"Positive. I always did want to make my own money." Naruto said
"Fair point. So how about tomorrow night, the two of us go and scope out the competition. There's a new club opening downtown. It's called Poison. Max Fuller owns it."
Naruto raised an eyebrow "Max Fuller." he said getting a nod from Tommy "You do remember exactly what happened between us right?"
"Come on man who stays mad at a castaway?" Tommy asked
"The castaway that slept with his mother, and fiancee." Naruto replied
"Aw, I'm sure he'd over it by now." Tommy said causing Naruto to raise an eyebrow as Tommy checked his phone "Oh man, I gotta roll. See you later, man."
"I'm surprised your hanging with him, after he slept with Laurel." Lyla said when Tommy was gone
"That has nothing to do with me." Naruto shrugged before he turned to Lyla "So what do you think?"
"I think it'll be a good cover, for what your really doing at night, even though you don't need one, seeing as you can clone yourself." Lyla shrugged
"This place, will draw lots of people in to be my alibi, instead of my body guard and family. It's only a matter of time before Quentin gets suspicious about my returning and a vigilante just up and appearing, with me being the first to see him." Naruto said causing Lyla to nod in understanding, as Naruto made a note to do something about that the vigilante and Nathaniel Queen should never be in the same conversation
"You know what happens, if you go down right. Amanda will immediately try to get you to join A.R.G.U.S. Your an unknown with abilities no one has ever seen before, which makes you perfect for her."
"So perfect that she and you along with other female A.R.G.U.S. agents went to extreme lengths to get my DNA." Naruto said
"Unsuccessfully, but you can admit the process was fun." Lyla said smirking at Naruto who scoffed smiling before the two walked away
Next Day
SCPD
Quentin was looking over the time line for Fox, when Lucas walked in "Got ballistics back on the Holder murder. They pulled two 7.62 millimeter bullets out of him. According to stippling and size of the entry wound they estimate shots were fired from 100 yards away."
"A hundred yards? So the hood shoots him from another building goes over to his place, he takes out his security, then fires a few arrows?" Quentin asked skeptically
"And according to his tox screen, his blood contained strychnos toxifera." Lucas nodded
"What?" Quentin asked raising an eyebrow
"Curare. It's a kind of poison."
"Oh. Okay, so now we switch from arrows to sniper bullets and poison. I'm not buying it." Quentin said shaking his head as he stood up and began to leave
"We still found arrows on the scene. Solid evidence the hood was there." Lucas said watching as Quentin walked off "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to get my own evidence." Quentin said leaving causing Luca to sigh, and take a seat
With Naruto
Naruto looked around as he was henged as Itachi, and entered a large Asian style mansion, before 7 Chinese men held him at gunpoint, before his Sharingan flashed and they all collapsed, and Naruto focused on the beautiful woman still conscious "Madam Li, it's been awhile."
"Kitsune, I hear you've been busy in Starling." Madam Chunhua Li said
"Yes, I ran into your friend China White, a few days ago." Naruto nodded "Are you busy?"
"For you, never, what do you need?" Madam Li asked
"Last night, a target of mine was shot and killed, the sniper left this behind." Naruto said tossing the bullet over to Madam Li, who looked it over "It's lace with Curare, the man who uses it goes by the name Deadshot. I need you to find him."
"Consider it done, now would you wake my men." Madam Li said before Naruto smiled and pulsed his Chakra, waking the men, but when they regained their composer Naruto was already gone
Next Day
Queen Manor
Walter, and Moira were meeting with Quentin, while Lyla stood in the doorway "It's a great loss. Carl was a titan." Walter said
"A titan who was looking to buy out a company called Unidac Industries?" Lucas asked standing by Quentin
"Well, industries are something of a misnomer. Ul's recent activity was actually looking into alternative energy." Walter said
"The point my partner is trying to make is that Rasmussen was the second bidder this week to lose his life." Quentin said
"Are you implying something, detective?" Moira asked
"Well, only that your husband's looking into buying Unidac Industries, and the competition seems to be dropping like flies." Quentin said
"And I'm sure your veiled accusation has nothing to do with how you feel about my family." Moira replied only for Quentin to huff
"Unidac's in receivership, detective." Walter said getting Quentin's attention "Ownership is subject to a liquidation auction so that means there are many prospective buyers. And the auction's tomorrow so if I was taking out the competition I have a lot of killing to do in a very short amount of time."
"We're just making rounds with interested buyers. Let them know to be careful." Lucas said
"Oh, yes. And I'm overwhelmed that Detective Lance is concerned for our safety." Moira said sarcastically causing Quentin's frown to deepen
"Well, thank you for your concern, gentlemen. Our security consultant, Ms. Michaels is taking all the necessary precautions." Walter said
"Yeah. Right. Well, if you need us we're just a 911 call away." Quentin said getting up and walking off with his partner
Later
Poison
Naruto, Lyla, and Tommy walked into the club, "Oh, my, this is gonna be killer." Tommy said
"If Max Fuller sees me here, I agree." Naruto sighed
"Aw, if you wanna run a business, you gotta take a few risks." Tommy said
Laurel was at the bar watching her friend who was dancing, when she saw Tommy, and Naruto walk up "Oh, wow. Doesn't you going out and having fun violate some kind of law like the ones that are carved on a stone tablet." Tommy said
"That's cute, Tommy." Laurel said as Naruto ordered a drink
"Thanks." Tommy smiled
"I can see you two are up to your old hunting patterns." Laurel said
"Actually, this is strictly for business." Naruto said
"Really?" Laurel asked
"Sure is, Merlyn thought why not scope out the competition. Although I get the feeling when Max Fuller sees me I'll be out of here very quickly." Naruto said
"Well, well, look at this. Nathan Queen." he heard and turned to the owner
"Max Fuller. How you been?"
"Happy you drowned." Max glared, before he smirked and looked to Tommy, and Laurel "I see nothing has changed, you were forced to watch Laurel, and Oliver together now your brother's girl has moved on to your best friend."
Laurel's, and Tommy's eyes widened "Look man, I"
"Your a grown man Tommy." Naruto interrupted looking to Tommy "If, you and Laurel want to be together that isn't any of my business." he said before he looked to Max "So Max, how's your mom, and fiancée?"
"Son of a bit-" Max had immediately threw a punch at Naruto who moved and grabbed his arm before throwing him over the bar into the bottles of liquor on the shelves
"Oh!" Laurel yelled, as everyone turned to see Naruto get rushed by the two security guards who punched him in the stomach, and grabbed him by his neck before Lyla showed up, and kicked the guy with Naruto's neck in his grip in the nuts and slammed his head on the bar, knocking him out, before she tazed the other man
"Thanks.' Naruto smirked as he rolled his neck
"Just doing my job sir." Lyla said as Naruto nodded and looked to Laurel and Tommy
"I think that's enough excitement for one night." Naruto said turning and leaving before Tommy, and Laurel caught up with him outside
"Naruto, wait!" Laurel called causing Naruto to stop, and look at her and Tommy
"Look man, what happened betw,"
"Is none of my business." Naruto interrupted Tommy, "What happens between you both, is between you both. Have a good night.
Naruto turned and got into his car, before Lyla pulled off leaving the two to watch after him
With Naruto
Naruto's phone buzzed, causing him to sigh, as he answered "Yeah?"
"I got your information. His name is Floyd Lawton. I have the address, for where he stayed last time he was in Starling City. But that is all." Madam Li said
"Let's hope he's a creature of habit."
"1700 Broadway, Pape Motel, Room 52."
"Thank you." Naruto said
"Going hunting?" Lyla asked as Naruto hung up
"Seems that way." Naruto said
Pape Motel
Floyd Lawton sat at his laptop looking at blueprints, with his TV on mute, cracking his neck, as it was getting to stiff, he suddenly paused and his eyes widened before he ducked as a kunai cut a few hairs from his head, before he threw his arm up, and his wrist turrets opened fire at Naruto who, unsheathed his wazikashi and began to slice through the storm of bullets, coming at him,
Lawton seeing that his bullets weren't effective, reached under his bed, as he kept firing, and rolled a grenade to Naruto who looked downas Lawton smirked holding the pin before he jumped out of the window
Boom
Panic ensued when the motel room exploded, while on an rooftop across the street, Naruto stood perfectly fime, before he looked down to the bullet riddled laptop, and with a grunt vanished in a yellow flash, as sirens cut through the air
Next Morning
Queen Consolidated
Naruto walked into the IT department with the laptop, and stopped at the desk of the IT girl he had winked at a few days ago, "Felicity Smoak?" he asked getting her attention "Hi. I'm Nathan Queen."
"Of course. I know who you are, you're Mr. Queen." Felicity said
"No, Mr. Queen was my father." Naruto replied
"Right, but he's dead. I mean, he drowned." Felicity said causing Naruto to raise an eyebrow "You didn't, which means you could come down to the IT Department and listen to me babble." Felicity blushed as she carried on while Naruto smiled "Which will end. In three, two, one."
"I was wondering if you could salvage anything from this laptop I found." Naruto said handing her the laptop
"Um, are these bullet holes?" Felicity asked
"Mm-hm. I'm interested in who the owner was, and what kind of trouble he was planning on getting into." Naruto said
"Um..sure." Felicity said causing Naruto to nod
Queen Manor
Thea was in her room, on her bed texting her friends, when Moira walked in carrying two dresses before she stopped in surprise seeing Thea "Wow. Well, good, you're here."
"I'm under house arrest, remember." Thea said still texting
"Do you wanna wear the Calvin Klein or the Zac Posen?" Moira asked holding up the dresses, causing Thea to look at her in confusion
"To dinner?" Thea asked with a raised eyebrow "I was just gonna wear pajamas."
"Yo Walter's stock auction." Moira said
"I think I rather be grounded." Thea replied
"No, it's important that you come.' Moira said only for Thea to roll her eyes
"Important to whom?" Thea asked going back to texting
"To me." Moira said looking at her daughter who scoffed, before she put town the dresses and walked over to Thea and placed a hand on her knee as she sat on the bed "All right, listen to me." she said causing Thea to look up at her "When you were 4 years old, you came home one day with a cat. It was a stray, it was filthy and it was mean. But you stood there and you declared that it was coming to live with us. Your father came home from the office and he saw what was going on and he sat you down and he explained to you that the cat was in fact a tiger and that we needed to get it home. And somehow you understood. Robert was always so good at getting through to you, and I...I was always so jealous of that."
"You never talk about him." Thea said as Moira wiped her tearfI'll ed eyes "Dad. That's the first time you talked about him in years."
"Well, I think you and I have gotten into some bad habits. There's been a lot that has changed recently, Thea and I think that maybe this can change too." Moira smiled softly before she got up and walked away
Queen Consolidated
Naruto was with Felicity who was scrolling through blueprints "It looks like blueprints." Felicity noted
"Do you know what of?" Naruto asked
"The Exchange Building." Felicity said
"Never heard of it." Naruto replied
"It's where the Unidac Industries auction is scheduled to take place." Felicity said before she looked to Naruto "Whose laptop is this again?"
"Why you ask?" Naruto asked
"Mr. Steele is trying to buy Unidac Industries. And you've got a company laptop associated with one of guys he's competing against."
"Floyd Lawton." Naruto said
"No. Warren Patel. Who's Floyd Lawton?"
"He is an employee of Mr. Patel, evidently." Naruto sighed before he stood up "Thank you Ms. Smoak, I think I need to take a trip to SCPD."
"Um, sure. You need help with anything else, come on down. Not that I'm saying you need permission, since this is your company, I'm just saying."
"Your cute." Naruto smiled causing her to blush, as he took the laptop "See you next time." he said turning and leaving his smile turning into a frown
'The Exchange Building is surrounded by three towers with eye lines into the building. Lawton can get his kill shot off from virtually anywhere. Shadow Clones would be the answer but I can't be reliant on them if Lawton got a shot off. I'll need some help."
Later
SCPD
Quentin was walking to his car, when a hand reached from the shadows and grabbed him by his collar and slammed him up against the wall, with his feet hanging off the ground "You son of a bitch! You've got a pair on you, pulling this, outside a police station!"
"Floyd Lawton's the one targeting the buyers interested in Unidac. Interpol calls him Deadshot because he never misses. You can look this up after I go." Naruto said
"Yeah, and stop chasing you, I suppose?"
"I don't care if you continue or quit. Your wwasting your time, and energy not mine." Naruto said before he reached up and took off his mask allowing Quentin to see his Sharingan and pulled down his face mask, Quentin tried to memorize the face of Itachi Uchiha, but his focus kept being drawn to the weird red eye with the three red dots spinning "This is how confident I am, that you won't catch me, Detective." Naruto taunted placing his mask back on "Warren Patel hired Lawton. I can't be sure who they're targeting, might be the buyers and I can't protect them in a space that big. I need your help."
"Heh. Yeah? Professional help?" Quentin said frowning
"Lawton laces his bullets with curare. Tell your men to wear Kevlar." Naruto said
"I'll them to shoot you-" Quentin was rendered silent when Naruto tossed him into his car where the laptop was placed on the hood, Quentin grabbed his gun and turned to see Naruto was gone, and began to look around
The Exchange Building
Walter, and Moira stood in the lobby with the other buyers as Moira looked around "Well, it's quite a turnout." Moira said
"Well, it's quite an opportunity, actually. But regardless of the outcome of the auction I'm already a winner because I have two beautiful women at my side tonight." Walter smiled
"Two?" Moira asked raising an eyebrow, only for Walter to look up towards the door, following his line of sight she saw Thea walking over
"Thanks for coming, Thea. It means a lot to your mother. And me." Walter smiled as Moira and Thea hugged before he looked over when his name was called
"Mr. Steele, the auction will be opening in five minutes. Please make sure your bid is ready."
"Thank you, Gina." Walter smiled before he looked to Moira, and Thea "Shall we?"
When they nodded the trio walked off
Naruto in uniform was on the roof, looking down at his family, he watched as the cops arrested Warren Patel, before his Shadow Clone walked in and and mingled with the others, watching his shadow clone blend perfectly with everyone and not show a sign of anything being wrong, Naruto blinked when a red dot appeared on Walter's chest, and quickly turned to the construction sight across the way, and sped forward as a gunshot went off, causing him to stop and see that Quentin had tackled Walter before he could get hit, but Floyd continued to fire at the other buyers as his clone, was lead out along with his family by Lyla.
Naruto jumped off the roof and into the construction building, causing glass to shatter from the window before he rolled out of the way, when Floyd opened fire with his wrist turrets, behind a pillar, Naruto jumped to the rafters and watched as Floyd cautiously tried to find him,
"Put your weapons down." Naruto said
"I admire your work Kitsune, who would've thought after you disappeared a year ago, this is where you'd be hiding. Guess you won't be extending me any professional courtesy."
"We're not in the same line of work, your profession is murder."
"You've taken lives."
"Always for the good of others. You're out for yourself." Naruto said, before he appeared behind Floyd who turned to shot him but screamed in pain, when Naruto slashed through his scope and eye with his tanto, and stabbed him in the gut causing him to groan before he fell back as Naruto twirled his blade tossing the blood off of it, before he vanished in a flash of yellow
Finished
Chapter 4: Jason Brodeur
Queen Manor
Laurel had immediately rushed over when she heard about the shooting, and after making sure that the Queen family was safe, she walked to the room of the one she was truly concerned about, and saw his door was open, and gasped as the first thing she saw was Naruto's back to her as he dried his hair
Walking in, she placed her purse on the desk, and walked over her eyes tearing up as she looked at the scars on his back, and reached forward hesitantly and traced one of them feeling him flinch before he turned to her allowing her to see the other scars on his chest, and abdomen
"What happened to you?' Laurel asked looking up at Naruto who frowned
Flashback
Lian Yu
After Naruto, and Yao Fei the name of the man who shot him calmed down and talked, the two had went to sleep, however Naruto had awoken in the middle of the night, currently he was walking through the woods towards his father's burial sight, and upon getting there, he began to look around for what he was looking for, and found it, a small journal, opening it he blinked when he saw each of the pages were blank before he closed the book and looked to the burial
"You stupid old man." Naruto said sadly before he heard something and turned only to be knocked unconscious by the but of a assault rifle as 3 men dressed in all black
Moments Later
Naruto groaned awake to see that he was handcuffed being lead to some encampment taking note of the weapons being unloaded, before he was shoved into a tent into a pole, while a man sat with a glass of ice, and a soda
"Please sit, your making me feel rude." the man said as Naruto with a grunt sat down, "I do apologize for my men's treatment of you, they're trained to view any stranger as hostile." the man said opening the soda and pouring it into the glass slowly as he watched Naruto "I'm Edward Fyers by the way, and you are?"
"I'm Nathan Queen, I've been shipwrecked here. I don't know how long,"
"Interesting, let's talk shall we Nathaniel."
"About what?" Naruto asked
"Well for starters," Fyers reached back and pulled out a photo of Yao Fei "This gentle man, do you know him?"
"I've never seen him a day in my life." Naruto said causing Edward to frown "Who is he?"
'You see I've been nothing but polite, and in return you lie to my face." Edward said glaring at Naruto who raised an eyebrow
"Look buddy, I just lost my father, brother, and best friend, your men knocked me out after I buried my father, and brought me here, whatever business you have with that guy is your own, not mine."
"Do you know what this island is called?"
"I don't care." Naruto said
"Lian Yiu, it's mandarin for Purgatory, but I can make it feel like hell. Now I don't know why your protecting him, but your young, so that makes you foolish. Your going to tell me what I want to know." Edward said before he looked to the entrance "He's yours now!"
Naruto turned back to see a man in all black with half his mask being black and the other half being orange walk in "Allow me to introduce to you my friend Slade Wilson, you and he will be getting very acquainted." Edward said before he left, as Slade walked forward
End Flashback
"Laurel, I,"
"The truth Naruto." Laurel said causing Naruto to sigh and walk over and close his door before he walked over and sat on his bed
"Few days, after I made it to the island, I was tortured by the people already there." Naruto said causing Laurel's eyes to widen in horror as Naruto got flashes of himself tied to a rafter as Slade drove his knife across his chest, and stabbed him in liver while he tried to keep his pain to himself
"W-what why?" Laurel asked
"I don't know, they were apparently looking for something, and thought I knew where it was. I'd be dead if it wasn't for a man named Yao Fei another prisoner, he helped me get free but sacrificed himself to kill all of the people keeping up captive." Naruto said before he looked to Laurel seriously "You can't tell anyone."
"What why not?"
"Because, the last thing I need is anymore pity, and I don't want my mom, or Thea to know." Naruto said with a frown "Promise me."
"I promise." Laurel nodded causing Naruto to nod slowly before she brought him into a hug "I'm so sorry for what you've been through."
"It wasn't your fault Laurel, you have nothing to be sorry for." Naruto said before he pulled back and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear "Besides, I'm alive, that's all I care about."
Laurel nodded as she placed her hand on Naruto's and he caressed her cheek
"Listen about the other nig-mmhh!" Naruto began but was silenced when Laurel kissed him unable to help herself, Naruto returned the kiss and brought her onto his lap, and squeezed her ass firmly causing her to moan as she ran her hands through his hair, before he stood up and turned around tossing her down onto the bed, causing her to smile, as he crawled onto the bed, and the two began kissing, with light petting, and cuddled on the bed, before they dozed off
Flashback
Naruto glared at Edward, as he and Slade looked at him "You've shown great resilience, perhaps you were telling the truth before." Edward said before he looked to Slade "Put him out of his misery."
Naruto watched as Slade shrugged, before he flexed and snapped the handcuffs before he punched Edward in the gut and grabbed him by the back of his head, and moved the man in front of him while Slade had his katana at the ready "Move." Naruto ordered
"Listen, kid that man is my employer, which means I have to protect him." Slade said causing Naruto to narrow his eyes
"You see Mr. Queen your trapped here, with us." Edward said
"You talk to much." Naruto kneed Edward in his back, and tossed him at Slade who tried to catch him but the force of Naruto's throw sent the man and his employer flying back, Naruto ran out of the tent and stopped as 30 armed men stood there before a female figure in an outfit similar to Slade appeared and cut down a few with her blade, while another woman dressed in black, with her face covered cut down 5 of them in quick succession, while Naruto grabbed a knife from one of the men's clothes, and slit his throat, and upon seeing the last man about to shoot the black clad female, quickly tossed the knife causing it to go through the man's head
"Come with us if you want to live." the masked woman said before she and her partner turned and ran, followed by Naruto who took the knife he had thrown from a corpse and followed them,
"We've got company." the masked woman said as Naruto, and the black clad woman turned to see the armed men following them, before Naruto stopped and turned toward the approaching men "Keep moving!"
The two women turned to Naruto who tool a deep breath before he went through hand seals his hands going at a slow pace before they became blurs, before he stopped on the Tori seal "Fire Style- Great FireBall Jutsu!"
The women watched in shock as Naruto spat a large fireball at they're chasers
"Let's go." Naruto said running off, before the two women followed after him after a shared glance
Moments Later
Naruto and the three women came upon the cave he had shared only to see Yao Fei was gone "Who are you people?" Naruto asked looking between the, as the women took off their masks
"I am Talia al Ghul." Talia introduced (Taylor Cole), before she looked to the caramel skinned woman (Kat Graham) next to her "and this is Rose Wilson."
End Flashback
Naruto awoke in the middle of the night to see that Laurel had left, causing him to sigh, before he stood up and walked downstairs to grab a snack, but paused when he saw Thea watching TV with a large bowl of chips, and decided to join her
"There were no signs of forced entry or any evidence of a struggle but hours later, the police found the blood-stained kitchen knife - in the trunk of Peter Declan's car." the news report said
"Couldn't sleep either?" Thea asked as Naruto moved her feet, and sat down placing them in his lap
"No. What are you watching?" Naruto asked
"Peter Declan." Thea said getting a raised eyebrow from Naruto "Oh, a guy who killed his wife. This guy killed his wife in their baby's room. Psycho."
"Okay we were just shot at, not something I'm interested in at the moment." Naruto said taking the remote and turning to something called American Dad
"Hey! Give it back." Thea said as she tried to take the remote, but Naruto held it out of her reach before she found herself straddling him, struggling to get the remote back, as she leaned forward to take the remote she blinked and blushed at the intimate position she and Naruto we're in, and feeling a long hard object against her ass, before she cleared her throat while getting off of him and turned back to the news
"Declan's execution is set for midnight two days from now. Camille Declan's former employer, Jason Brodeur released a statement saying, quote: "I hope this gives Camille the peace she deserves."
Naruto frowned as Jason Brodeur was on the list, which meant he needed to look into this
"So why can't you sleep?" Thea asked a blush still on her cheeks
"Bad dreams." Naruto said
"About?" Thea asked
"Laurel."
"So why don't you make a play? I mean, she did come over here just to make sure you didn't get shot."
"There are reasons." Naruto said
"What are they? Besides Oliver sleeping with her sister and her sister dying and her father hating your guts,"
"Those are the top ones. Along with the fact Tommy loves her." Naruto said causing Thea to nod, before Naruto brought her closer to him and kissed her head "I know that it might not seem like it sometimes but I'm not the same person I used to be." he sighed laying his head onto of hers and she cuddled up to him
"So show her. Be yourself. I mean, your new self." Thea said, causing Naruto to look thoughtful
Morning
Foundry
Naruto was looking up all the info on the Declan case, how the husband Peter had no alibi, and all evidence pointed to him killing his wife, but Naruto wasn't going to believe that he had a friend who swore a man in yellow killed his mother, yet his father was serving a life sentence for the crime, and Naruto knew that he was telling the truth besides evidence could always be planted by the real killer, the man was going to need a good attorney
With Laurel
Laurel had spent the day at work trying to focus on her case, but he mind kept going back to her visit with Naruto yesterday, when she had woke up she felt safe, but guilt was felt right after seeing as Tommy had said he was going to try to be a man she deserved and it felt like she was stringing him along, because while she felt something for Tommy she wasn't sure what it was, and what she felt for Naruto had only grown stronger since he returned to Starling and lord knows what her dad would day if she started dating Naruto
With a sigh she stood up and began to pack up her stuff while her friend Joanna walked over "So I take it there's absolutely no point in asking if you'd like to grab a drink."
"I can't. I have to go over transcripts for the Fernands case." Laurel said putting on her bag
"You know, if you go somewhere that's not work or your home your odds of meeting someone increase by a gazillion percent." Joanna said as Laurel began to walk toward the door
"That's not true. I could still get mugged on the way home." Laurel replied looking back to her friend who smiled
"In that case, I hope he's cute and single." Joanna retorted
"Good night, Joanna." Laurel smiled leaving
30 Minutes Later
Laurel arrived home, and tried to turn on the lights, and frowned when they wouldn't come on, so cautiously she walked deeper into her apartment into her living room at her desk, and reached into her bottom droorand pulled out the gun her father gave her, and turned around to see in the hallway was the masked vigilante
"Hello, Laurel." Naruto greeted not using his demonic voice but instead one of warmth and comfort
"Don't move." Laurel ordered fear in her voice, and Naruto raised his hands showing that he didn't have a weapon in hand
"I'm not gonna hurt you.' Naruto said advancing slowly
"Stay back. My father is a cop. You are making a huge mistake." Laurel said as she watched the vigilante that he dad had been chasing
"I'm not the person you think I am, and I need your help. Peter Declan is gonna be executed in 48 hours. I think he's innocent. Declan's wife was gonna blow the whistle on Brodeur. Brodeur had her murdered." Naruto said now in front of Laurel whose gun was now pressed up against his chest
"There are a thousand lawyers in Starling City. Why me?" Laurel asked
"We're both trying to help." Naruto said
"What makes you so sure I'm gonna help you?"
"Because I know you'd do anything to save the life of an innocent man." Naruto said as he walked around her toward the exit, but paused before he looked at her "Next time when there is an intruder do not hesitate to pull the trigger."
Laurel turned to look at the vigilante only to see him gone
Next Day
Iron Heights Prison
Laurel was in a room with Peter Declan who was looking at a photo of his daughter "Ajury has found you guilty, Mr. Declan." Laurel said
"The evidence was stacked against me, but I didn't kill my wife. I didn't take my daughter's mother from her." Declan said leaning forward with the picture of his daughter
"The murder weapon was a knife from your kitchen with your prints on it. It was found, along with Camille's blood in the trunk of your car. Your neighbors said they heard an argument that night." Laurel replied as Declan stood up and began to pace
"We had a knockdown fight over Jason Brodeur. Camille worked for him and his company had been dumping toxic waste into the Glades. Camille told me she'd gone and told a supervisor about it. I was afraid for my family's safety. And we argued very loudly, Yes. Izzy started crying, so Camille went and stayed in her room." Declan explained before he sat back down "In the morning, I went to apologize and that's when I found her. So I just grabbed Izzy and I ran outside and I called 911. I'm innocent, Ms. Lance."
Later
SCPD
Laurel was looking at a photo of the vigilante when her dad walked up to her with a folder "Well, I wasn't the lead on this, but from what I recall we had fingerprints, we had blood, we got motive, everything."
"Brodeur seems like the type of guy with resources needed to frame someone." Laurel said turning to face her dad and taking the folder before she began to look through it
"Laurel, in 24 hours, Peter Declan is lying down with a needle in his arm, and not getting up. If I thought we didn't have the right guy you think I'd be doing anything now except get at what really happened?" Quentin asked
"Declan said his wife went to her supervisor with allegations that Brodeur was dumping toxic waste." Laurel said looking at a statement
"Yeah, but that supervisor, he said that never happened." Quentin replied, taking the folder "Let me see. What was his name? Here you go. Istook, Matt lstook. He said he didn't even see Camille that day. Happy now?"
"Yes." Laurel smiled before he stood up and began to leave
"I thought it'd be cold day in hell before you started defending criminals." Quentin said looking to his daughter who turned to him
"I'm not sure Declan is a criminal. Like you said, he's on a clock. Can't leave any stone unturned." Laurel said before he left as Quentin frowned
Elsewhere
Thea, and her friends were leaving school, talking and laughing before Thea noticed Naruto leaning on a matte black Koenigsegg Agera R "What're you doing here?" Thea asked walking over and ignoring how her friends were looking at Naruto
"I thought I'd hang with my little sister for a bit." Naruto smiled which she returned
"Whose car is that?" Thea asked
"Mine." Naruto said walking around to the driver seat
"All those years on an island, hasn't dulled your love for fast cars I see. So how fast is this one?" Thea asked looking it over
"0–62 mph in 2.8 second." Naruto smiled getting in and when Thea closed the door he sped off
With Laurel
While Naruto, and Thea were out on the town, Laurel was busy looking over files on the Declan case, while Joanna walked over "You really are putting a lot of hours into this Declan thing. You actually think he's innocent?"
"Someone does." Laurel said still looking at the files
"So you said, but you didn't say was who." Joanna replied causing Laurel to bite her bottom lip, and look around before she walked up to her friend and smiled
"A guardian angel."
Joanna blinked and crossed her arms over her chest "The guy in the hood? Wha? You're kidding."
"He tracked me down, asked me to look into the case." Laurel said
"But you've met him?" Joanna asked causing Laurel to nod
"But he goes against everything that I was ever taught to believe in. He breaks the law and God knows what else." Laurel said
"How are you not afraid he won't do "God knows what" to you?' Joanna asked worried for her friends safety
"He won't. I don't know, I can feel it." Laurel said assuredly
"When I told you to meet someone, this is far, far away from what I meant." Joanna sighed
Later
Laurel was now on a rooftop, looking over the city, and saw the vigilante standing on ledge overlooking the city "I got your message." she said "Is there a reason we can't do this face to face?"
"Your dad is a cop remember." Naruto said, "You've met with Peter Declan."
"You were right. He might be innocent. Declan said his wife blew whistle on Brodeur the day she was murdered." Laurel said
"Then we need to get whoever she told about Brodeur to testify." Naruto replied
"He already has. Matt lstook, Camille's supervisor. Only he says that she didn't say a word to him." Laurel reported
"He could be lying."
"Well, if he is, then he's very convincing. He had the jury and police believing him." Laurel said
"He hasn't been questioned by me." Naruto said turning to leave
"Hey, I didn't become a lawyer to break the law or hurt anybody." Laurel said causing Naruto to stop and look at her over his shoulder
"I do what's necessary, what people like Peter Declan need." Naruto said
"If what you're doing isn't wrong then why are you hiding your face with a mask?" Laurel asked
"To protect the ones I care about, from the enemies I make." Naruto said
"That sounds lonely." Laurel noted
"It can be." Naruto said jumping off the roof, causing Laurel to gasp before she ran over to the ledge only to see he was gone
Elsewhere
Matt Istook was walking to his brand new Porshe, putting his suitcase in, before he got in himself, he started his car, but jumped in fear when he saw a fox mask in his back seat before darkness was all he knew
Moments Later
Matt groaned and blinked, before he screamed in fear, as he found himself dangling off the side of the bridge over rushing water "Oh my god!" he yelled before he looked to his legs to see his ankle being held by the mask man that attacked him
"Matt lstook."
"What're you doing! I've done nothing wrong!"
"Peter Declan. Your lies helped put him on death row. Now, either it's time to tell me the truth, or I drop you." Naruto said
"Oh, god, okay, okay I'll tell you anything you want to know." Matt nodded
"Quickly my arm is getting tired." Naruto said
"Okay. Okay. Brodeur paid me to say that Camille never spoke to me. But I didn't have anything to do with her death. Oh, God. Please get me down. I'll do anything." Matt pleaded only for Naruto to hold him out further "You can have the file."
"What file?" Naruto asked
"Camille gave me a file of evidence against Jason Brodeur. Let me go, and I'll tell you." Matt said only to nearly lose his shit, when Naruto tossed him up and caught his ankle again
"Sorry my arm is really tired." Naruto said
"Okay, okay, it's in my desk! The file, it's in my desk at the office! You can have it!" Matt said before Naruto toseed him onto the bridge and Matt breathed heavily before he looked back only to see that he was alone
Flashback
Lian Yiu
"Why'd you help me?" Naruto asked looking between the two
"My student Yao Fei, he lost contact with me, on the part of the world, I've been looking for him." Talia said
"My father, stranded me here, and I'm going to kill him." Rose said as she looked at Naruto "I have a question, how'd you do that with the fireball?"
"That's a long story." Naruto said
"We got time." Rose said causing Naruto sigh as he sat down and placed a hand in his wounds, a dim glow on his hand as he did so
"Well, first off I'm kinda not from around here." Naruto began
End Flashback
With Laurel
Laurel was alone at her office, working in her case when the lights went out, causing her to stand up and look around before she jumped when a folder was dropped on her desk "Compliments of Matt lstook." Naruto said causing her to face him
"What's in here?" Laurel asked
"Leverage on Jason Brodeur." Naruto answered as Laurel looked through the file, before she smiled at him "Enough to help save Peter Declan's life."
"As an attorney, I never would've gotten a file like this." Laurel said amazed as she looked at Naruto "I always thought the law was sacred. It fixed everything. Now I think there's too many people in this city who only care about themselves. People who are selfish. I think they need someone who cares about the lives of other people. Someone like you."
"Let's hope not. What I do Laurel, while it gets results it's still ugly. I do what I do to protect the innocents of this city, and sometimes that calls for getting my hands bloody."
"All in the pursuit to help others." Laurel said
"Heh, have a nice night Laurel." Naruto said leaving as the lights turned back on, while Laurel smiled and sat down bitting her bottom lip
Later
After going home to sleep, and take a shower Laurel immediately went back to work upon waking up, currently she was at her desk, when her dad walked up "Hey, you look busy. Is that the Declan case? There was a funny development on that." Quentin said sitting on her desk as she looked up to him "Matt lstook, he, uh, filed a police report. He said the Fox harassed him last night. And that's funny, because I gave my daughter lstook's name."
"Dad, I-" Laurel began but Quentin leaned forward angrily
"He's a vigilante. He's a damn criminal, and you working with him. That makes you an accessory." Quentin interrupted
"I'm trying to save an innocent man's life." Laurel defended standing up
"No, you're breaking the law." Quentin retorted standing up as well
"I wouldn't have to if the police had done their job right in the first place." Laurel said causing Quentin to frown as he paused
"I asked you how you got this case. You lied to me straight to my face. Eh? I thought you and I didn't do that. Guess I was wrong." Quentin said before he stormed off while Laurel watched
Later
Courthouse
Laurel was with the judge, who was looking through the file "Your Honor, the mere existence of the file proves that Mr. Istook perjured himself for Jason Brodeur's benefit." Laurel said
"That's slander." the two women turned to see a lawyer, Jason Brodeur, and a big Russian walk in "Jared Swanstrom, Your Honor. I represent Jason Brodeur and Brodeur Chemical."
"The interests of justice requires you to stay the defendant's execution pending exploration of the newly discovered evidence." Laurel said looking to the judge
"Ours isn't a court ofjustice, . It's a court of law. And under the law, your evidence is sufficient to warrant a stay of execution. Your motion for habeas corpus is denied." the judge said causing Laurel to frown before she walked toward the exit but stopped in front of the smirking millionaire
"This isn't over. I've got the loose end now. And no matter what happens, I'll pull on it until your whole world unravels." Laurel said before she walked off, roughly pushing past the man
Later
With Jason
Jason was pacing in his office, freaking out "Declan's lawyer is pulling me into this. I'm gonna go to prison, if not for murder, then this dumping thing!" he said to his lawyer and body guard
"That won't happen. There are steps we can take." His bodyguard Ankov said
"You saw her. She's going after me!" Jason yelled panicking
"She'll wanna meet with her client after what happened in court today. We have friends up in Iron Heights. Prison can be a dangerous place." Ankov said causing Jason to nod
Elsewhere
Naruto was on the roof, with Laurel who filled him in on what happened "We're not done yet." Naruto said
"I'm an attorney. Trust me, we're done." Laurel said causing Naruto to sigh
"What do you need to free Peter Declan?" Naruto asked after a moment
"At this point nothing short of a signed confession from Brodeur." Laurel said, causing Naruto to shrug and walk off "Where are you going?"
"To get a confession."
Later
Jason's Office
Jason was against the wall, in his office, as Naruto stood in front of him "Jason Brodeur.
"What do you want?" Jason asked taking deep breaths
"You'll confess you arranged to have Peter Declan's wife murdered."
"What, so I can take his place in prison?" Jason asked
"So you can avoid the death penalty." Naruto said before Jason smirked
"Except if I'm dead, well, then you got no one to pin Camille's murder on. You need me to exonerate Peter Declan."
"You're very naive." Naruto said unsheathing his blade
"Listen, maybe you could try to force me to sign a confession or something-ahh!" Jason screamed as Naruto stabbed him through the shoulder
"That might be difficult." Naruto said ripping his blade free before he grabbed Jason and slammed him onto the ground and stomped on his wounded shoulder before he kneeled down forcing his foot down causing the man to scream before tears of pain were seen by Naruto "Are you crying? Buck up Mr. Brodeur, your in for a long night. Now choose, fingers, or teeth."
Jason's phone began to ring, causing Naruto to sigh, and he pulled the man's phone out, and held it to his mask "What?"
Jason looked up in shock when his voice came from the man stepping on him "It's Ankov. It's going down. One hour."
Naruto crushed the phone and tossed it away before he looked down at Jason "What's going down in an hour?"
Jason looked away, but shouted and began to cry when Naruto lifted his foot, and slammed it down on his shoulder "Alright.. we made a plan..."
"What plan?' Naruto asked as the man sobbed under him and forced his heel deeper into the wound "Start talking!"
"Were going to stage a riot in Iron Heights and in the confusion Peter, and his bitch lawyer will be dead!" Jason yelled, before he saw a flash of red, and was knocked unconscious
"Laurel." Naruto said vanishing in a flash
Iron Heights
Peter was scared and frustrated as Laurel tried to talk to him "Okay, you have to listen to me. We still have a shot. You remember the friend I mentioned? The one who believes in you? He's working on something."
Outside
A guard on duty was keeping his eye on the perimeter but didn't see the blur that sped across the field and jumped over the gate, before it sped into the prison
Inside
"No, I told you, Jason Brodeur is powerful. I've been here before. These lawyers holding out these little nuggets of hope." Peter said just as the lights went out and alarms blared as cells were opened
Laurel stood up and looked around to see guards were running to respond "What? What the- ? "
"The warden is setting up a secure perimeter in C block. Stay here, ." the guard with her and Peter said before he left
"Wait!" Laurel yelled looking outside to see the officer get grabbed before 4 inmates began to kick the cap out of him
All throughout the cell block the inmates that were out of their cells attacked the nearest guard and Laurel happened upon a young looking guard get stomped on by a big guy who looked up and smiled at her, while the other inmates still in cells cheered and leered at her as they pulled the unconscious guard to the cell to grab his keys
The inmate began to advance on her before a Kuna found its way into his heart and Laurel, and Peter turned to see Naruto "Let's go." he said just as the cell opened and he stayed back to let Laurel, and Peter get out first, and punched the first inmate sending him flying back into his cell mates and they all fell, as Naruto ran over and grabbed Laurel's hand and lead her and Peter away, before he saw a door while guards with shields were coming
"Come on." Naruto said leading Laurel and Peter to safety before he was closed lined by Ankov who grabbed Laurel and threw her into a fence before he knocked her to the ground and began to strangle her,
Naruto shook the cobwebs from his head having hit it when he went doem, before he saw Laurel looking at him as she was being strangled and quickly he sprang up, grabbed Ankov by the back of his shirt, and flung him back sending him through the gated fence,
Laurel coughed as she got up and saw Naruto unsheath his sword as he walked up to Ankov who was clutching his head quickly she ran up and grabbed his arm aND flinched when she saw him look at her, and could see his eyes through his mask and gasped as his Sharingan slowly spun "Let's go." she said causing Naruto to look at her before he looked back to Ankov, and slowly nodded before they looked up when the guards entered
"Open up the generator area! Ms. Lance, stay back. Area secured." the guards chattered as Laurel turned to see Naruto gone, while the guards took Peter who didn't put up a fight
Later
Laurel was outside the prison, when she saw her dad "Laurel. Sweetie. What are you..?"
"I'm all right." Laurel said hugging her dad
"You sure?" Quentin asked getting a nod from his daughter
"I'm sorry about what I said to you." Laurel said
"You were right. Brodeur's bodyguard confessed to Camille Declan's murder. We got the wrong guy. But listen to me. I'm right too, about him. He's dangerous. He's outside the law." Quentin said as Laurel only nodded
"I'm sorry." she said causing Quentin to nod before he placed his jacket over her
"Let's get you home, sweetie. How did he get into that prison anyway, huh? A grown man in an outfit and a creepy fox mask that kind of stands out a little, doesn't it?"
"I don't know." Laurel said before she got into the car, and sat back but looked put the window and saw Naruto standing on the rooftop looking at her, before he turned and walked away disappearing into the darkness
Later
Queen Manor
Naruto, walked into the manor as Lyla went to drive Walter to the airport to see his mom looking sad on the steps "Mom? Everything alright?" he asked
"Hm, yeah, Walter will be going in a business trip."
"Doesn't that come with the CEO territory?" Naruto asked
"Yeah, I just don't do well sleeping alone." Moira said
"I can relate." Naruto smiled which Moira returned,
Meanwhile at the Starling City Police Department, Quentin was with tech, running through footage of the auction running through every camera to see if the man in the mask was on it or if someone was doing anything suspicious. He would find nothing much to his frustration.
Finished
Chapter 5: Royal Flush Gang
Sorry for the long wait, but people kept asking for Thea, and Moira, and I think, I made it work, if not oh well I'm moving on, but I guess I should explain that it's not really incest seeing as Naruto has no blood relatives. Naruto didn't spend 9 months in Moira's womb, he took the place of the child she was giving birth to already, I guess you could say, that Naruto was deaged, doing an interdimensional substitution jutsu, or Moira was just the portal he used to enter the world as her original child died and was left in a wasteland. Also who said that Naruto told Talia, and Rose his origins, all he said was that he wasn't from around here, I didn't go into detail about that. Besides I hate those kind of fics, were Naruto would appear in a world like DC, and then just pony up all the information about himself.
Story Start
Grunting could be heard in the base of one Nathaniel Queen, as he bobbed and weaved through Lyla's attacks, before he spun around her spartan kick, and slapped her ass causing her to gasp, and rub the stinging cheek
"Your attack patterns are predictable, and your thinking to much. Calm your mind." Naruto said
"What good would that do? Your a ninja with super powers."
"That's the thing, back when I was a child I applied this to myself." Naruto turned around showing Lyla his back before a large seal going down his spine, appeared
"What is it?" Lyla asked walking closer and touching his back
"A seal. It connects to the back of all my Chakra points, as long as it's active for all intents and purposes I'm a regular person minus a few liberties I couldn't part with." Naruto smiled as Lyla watched as the seal vanished
"What else can a seal do?"
"Anything, so long as the master of the seal knows what they're doing one can even bring back the dead." Naruto said causing Lyla's eyes to widen slightly "Speaking of dead."
Lyla watched Naruto head to a computer "Scott Morgan runs Water & Power in the Glades. Jacks up the prices when people can't pay shuts them down even in the dead of winter." he said
"Which is at least a month away." Lyla said before she brought something up while Naruto raised an eyebrow "Look at this."
"These guys started in Keystone three years ago. Began moving west, hitting banks along the way. This morning, they hit Starling City Trust. Shot an off-duty cop. He's in a coma. Doctors say it's a coin-toss whether he'll make it."
"If he's a cop, S.C.P.D. will be over it." Naruto said
"Overwhelmed, underfunded. These guys don't hit one time, they hit two or three per city. Right now they're planning their next job." Lyla said
"Why are you bring this up?" Naruto said
"You said you wanted to help this city. And while going after all the names in your dad's book is okay and all, but your city still needs a symbol."
"I'm not looking to inspire anyone." Naruto said
"Well you will regardless, now people think your a psychopath going after the rich, show them that your actually trying to help this city." Lyla said pointing to the article
"Your going to hound me on this aren't you?" Naruto asked causing Lyla to smirk
"You know me so well."
"I'll think about it." Naruto sighed, before Lyla slapped him
"That's for slapping my ass." Lyla said as Naruto smiled
"I thought you liked to be spanked." Naruto said causing Lyla to blush
Later
Queen Estate
Naruto, and Thea walked toward the steps as Thea talked "I mean, haven't you noticed she's been acting a little down lately? Heh, what am I saying? Of course you haven't."
"Since when do you pay attention to how Mom's feeling?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow as they walked down the stairs
"Since our step-father decided to take a business trip halfway around the world."
"When someone at Walter's pay grade takes a trip, it's always sudden. I wouldn't worry." Naruto said just as Moira walked into the hall with flowers
"Ah. Guess who I just hung up with?" Moira said happily as Naruto rose an eyebrow "Janice Bowen. Carter's mother."
"Ugh." Naruto gagged
"Carter Bowen. The perfect son." Thea smiled
"Is he perfect?" Moira asked
"According to you. Carter Bowen just won the national chess championship." Naruto said playfully mocking Moira
"Carter Bowen is anchoring the debate team." Thea joined im
"I didn't make that big a fuss." Moira smiled
"Nathaniel, Carter just got accepted into Harvard and Princeton." Thea smiled
"Because Carter got a perfect score on his SATs. Now, how did he manage to study and cure cancer?"
"All right, all right. I get it, I get it. Well, they're coming for brunch and I expect you to be there."
"I'll be busy doing anything but that." Naruto said
"I haven't seen the Bowens in years. Whatever it is that you have planned I'm sure the two of you can make the sacrifice just this once." Moira said looking at her children
"We'll be there." Naruto sighed after a moment as Moira smiled and walked off
"I hate you." Thea said making to walk off, but Naruto smirked and grabbed her before he began to tickle her sensitive spot like he did when she was younger causing her to laugh "Stop, stop"
"Take it back and I will." Naruto said as Thea laughed
"Okay, okay, I take it back." Thea said breathing heavily as Naruto stopped his assult and let her go, before Thea hit him, and ran off giggling when he reached to grab her again
"This isn't over!" Naruto shouted, as his phone rung
"Yeah?"
"Scott Morgan from your father's list? He tried to kill himself. Maybe afraid of getting a visit from you. Can you make it to Starling General?"
"On my way." Naruto said turning and running into Tommy
"Hey, just the man I wanted to see." Tommy said as Naruto raised an eyebrow "I just picked up a new sports car. I'm thinking, we can open her up, pick up a few speeding tickets."
"That sounds great, but something has come up, and I gotta jet." Naruto said tapping Tommy's shoulder and walking off
"Oh, uh, okay." Tommy said lamely as he watched Naruto leave "Nice talk. Thanks."
"He moves fast, doesn't he?" Thea said walking into the room
"It's ironic since you're the one we call Speedy." Tommy smiled turning to Thea
"Ah, "Called," please. For the love of God." Thea groaned before she said "But if you need somebody to talk to, I'm here."
Tommy looked thoughtful and nodded "You know, maybe you could help. There's this girl that I'm interested in. And I am really not sure how to pursue it."
"Have you tried using your usual lines? "My name is Tommy Merlyn, I'm a billionaire, even though I don't look like Warren Buffett." Thea said smiling
"Yeah, she is aware of that and she doesn't care. You know, money really isn't a big deal to her." Tommy replied
"Why don't you just tell her how you feel?" Thea asked
"Well, I've I've known her for a long time. And I'm not sure the direct approach is the right way to go."
"Maybe you have to figure out what's a big deal to her and make it a big deal to you." Thea offered
Tommy smiled in realization "Thea, you are amazing, heh. Love you." he said running off as Thea shrugged and walked upstairs to find something to do
Starling General
Naruto arrived in his car, and hopped out as Lyla walked over "Scott Morgan isn't the type to kill himself." Naruto said looking at her
"Well, I knew it would get you to come here." Lyla said as a ambulance unloaded a comatose man as a woman walked up
"Ms Michaels, I can't thank you enough for arranging to move my husband from county ward to Starling General. Now I know he's getting the best care."
"You should be thanking Nathaniel Queen. He's paying the bill." Lyla smiled shaking the woman's hand "Jana's husband, Stan, is a police officer. He happened to have been making a deposit at Starling Trust."
"The bank that was robbed." Naruto nodded as he looked to the depressed wife "Is he gonna be okay?"
"The next 24 hours are crucial. He should have just kept his head down, you know?" the wife said
"I've known a few police officers, they were always willing to help others even if that means putting themselves at risk." Lyla said as Naruto's eyebrow twitched
"Thank you." Stan's wife said shaking Naruto's hand
"You're welcome." Naruto smiled before the woman walked off
"You see your city has other problems, then the names on your father's list. You want to clean this city up, to do that you can't ignore the people who need your help." Lyla said
"Fine." Naruto sighed "Let's go before Lance and his partner show up and start giving me dirty looks."
Lyla smiled as she followed after Naruto
Later
Naruto and Lyla were at the factory, going over the footage of the bank robbery, as one of the robbers punched a bank teller "See that guy there? He's got a temper." Lyla noted
"And he shot Officer Washington." Naruto said
"That's right." Lyla said as she enhanced the frame around the man's hand
"High school ring. That ring will get us an ID." Naruto said
"But even with photo enhancement you have a problem getting a clear shot of that ring." Lyla stated
"It left an impression, the police would've photographed. It'll be in evidence lockup. I'll be back." Naruto said vanishing in a flash, and seconds later reappearing with a flash drive
Naruto put the flash drive in and brought up a picture "The bank manager Ace punched. His ring left a mark. Larchmont High."
Lyla began to type "Cross-referencing his height and age with the students and alumni, we have Kyle Reston." Lyla said
Naruto frowned as he read the info Lyla managed to get on Kyle "Before Kyle's senior year, not only did he drop out he dropped off the grid, along with his family. Father, mother, younger brother."
"Aside from Stan Washington there were 22 customers and employees that came. Nine men, 13 women. Inside the bank, nine men, 14 women. The police are looking for a crew, we will be hunting the family." Naruto said
Next Day
Naruto arrived home late for brunch after spending the night looking into the Reston family, entering the foyer he saw Moira, and Thea with their guests "Well, I'm sorry Walter couldn't join us." Janice said
"Oh, yes. Well, the Australian trip came up suddenly. He sends his apologies."
"Where's Nathaniel? He's not out of town too, is he?" Carter asked
"I'm sure he's,"
"Running late, sorry." Naruto said causing everyone to turn to him as he walked closer and kissed Moira's cheek, and hugged Thea
"Thank God you're here." Thea whispered before Naruto pulled back and winked at her
Janice with a large smile walked up and hugged Naruto "It is so good to see you. We all thought you were,"
"Oh, well, we are just happy he's home." Moira interrupted Janice as Naruto raised an eyebrow at the woman, before everyone sat down at the table
"Hmm, and returning as a celebrity too." Carter said as Naruto looked at him
"How do you mean?" Naruto asked
"Well, billionaire scion, castaway for five years. You know, there is a bidding war for the rights of your life story."
"Really." Naruto said with a small frown
"At least, that's what my agent says." Carter shrugged smirking
"I thought you were a neurosurgeon." Naruto said
"I know. It's crazy, right? One minute I'm publishing this book on how long-term potentiation initiates the creation of a slow-moving protein synthesis and then next, there's an agent trying to make me the next Dr. Oz, heh." Carter gloated as Naruto's eyebrow twitched, which his family noticed causing Moira to place a hand on his knee, knowing that he was going to say something inappropriate "Truthfully, I feel it's our duty as Starling City's more fortunate to help those most in need."
"I see five years has really changed your attitude Carter, seeing as I remember you being a bit of a bully to those less fortunate then us." Naruto said causing Carter to frown
"Yes, I'm deeply ashamed of my past behavior." Carter nodded
"So, Nathaniel now that you're back, what are your plans? Will you be taking a job with Queen Consolidated?"
"Not, yet. Walter has been doing a fine job, and once I'm fully caught up and learn every little detail my family's company has had a hand in I'll be taking over. But for now I've settled for writing a book series and opening a nightclub."
Moira didn't know how to feel about Naruto wanting to dig deep into the company as he might something he shouldnt, but she was surprised to hear about the book series
"Really a book series? I'm sure it'll be a good read." Carter said
"My publisher thought so." Naruto nodded
"Wait you were already published?" Thea asked
"Yeah, she published three of my manuscripts, Loveless, Make Out Paradise, and Chronicles of the Shinobi." Naruto said before his attention went to Lyla
"Sir, your liquor distributor's on the line." Lyla said, before she leaned in and whispered into his ear "First Bank of Starling was hit two minutes ago."
"Sorry, I'll be quick." Naruto said to the others before he stood up and walked out of the room
"If their M.O. holds, they made their escape underground. First Bank of Starling is located above water tunnels. The entrance is located here." Lyla said handing Naruto her phone with a map
Naruto nodded and created a clone that vanished in a flash with Lyla, as Naruto turned around and walked into Moira "Naruto, what's going on?"
"Everything's fine mom, let's go back to entertain the snobs." Naruto smiled as Moira smiled and linked her arm with his and the two walked into the dining room
Underground
The Reston men dropped down from the whole, and rushed to their meeting point, but paused when they saw Naruto walking toward them in uniform, and immediately Kyle opened fire, but Naruto was in his face with a elbow sending him flying back, before Naruto bent back when the other two shot at him, dodging the bullets before he kicked Derek in the jaw, and punched Teddy in the center of his mask causing it to shatter, as the two men went down dropping their bags of money
Naruto looked over his shoulder, before he quickly grabbed the bags of money, and vanished as the Reston men, got up noticing the vigilante and their money missing quickly they all ran off when cops arrived, as the bags of money would be found on the desk inside the bank
Later
"Who the hell was that guy?" Kyle asked upset as he held a bag if ice to his bruised jaw
"The local vigilante. Goes after rich guys."
"Clearly, he's branching out." Kyle glared
"Things have gone sideways lately. That hood guy. Kyle shooting a cop." Kyle's mom said
"You're the one warned me he was a cop." Kyle said
"So you would take his gun, not shot him."
"Your mother has a point." Mr. Reston said "Maybe this is a sign we need to hang it up. Head for Mexico. Retire."
"No, we don't have enough. We said that we wouldn't quit until we had enough to set ourselves up for life." Teddy said wiping his bleeding nose
"The kid is right, we need to hit another." Kyle said frowning
"We can make do. We'll be okay." Mr. Reston sighed
"I didn't spend five years risking my life and my freedom to just be okay." Kyle said walking up to his dad and glaring at the man "No, set for life. That was our deal."
"Okay. One more. And then we're out."
"Aren't you, supposed to be the king?"
The Reston family jumped and looked to see Naruto sitting on the hood of their getaway van,
"Let's make this easy, put your hands up, and none of you have to be sent to the hospital." Naruto said
Naruto was answered by Kyle moving to pick up, his Ak47, and retorted by appeared over the man and stomping on his head into the ground and applying pressure till he went slack, before he dodged gunfire from the other Reston family before he appeared behind Teddy and a chop to the back of the kids neck knocked him out,
Mr. and Mrs. Reston shot at Naruto who began to catch the bullets as he walked toward them and when they .of bullets he was now in front of them, and dropped the bullets as they looked at him in shock
"You both sre terrible parents." Naruto said before a flash of red was the last they saw as they collapsed,
SCPD
The cops rushed outside as pictures were being snapped of the Reston family who were still unconscious but we're dangling from ninja wire their gear, and money as well as a recording of their talk being tied to them as well
2 Days Later
Naruto entered his room after the fundraiser and took off his tie, blazer, shirt and pants leaving him in boxers, before he got ready to get into bed the mentally exhausting week he had catching up, was about to finally relax, but he groaned when the door opened and turned to see Thea enter
His little sister had made a small scene with Tommy earlier, and she had left upset "Thea everything alright?" he asked
"Yeah." Thea said looking at her brother's form,
"Well you need something, I'm kinda stressed out, and really want to relax." Naruto said
"I can help with that." Thea said stepping forward and kissing Naruto fully on the lips, causing Naruto's eyes to widen slightly, before he shrugged and returned the kiss, having no problem with incest, having come from a world where this sort of thing was actually welcomed, and in a weird way this wasn't even his sister, he wasn't even blood related to any members of the Queen family seeing as he just entered the world through Moira wasn't like he lived in her womb for 9 months, that child tragically died unfortunately,
So he was perfectly okay, when Thea kissed her way down his torso, and pulled his boxers down, before kneeling down in front of him and licking her palm, using the hand to grip his dick and started to stroke him off
"You sure about this Thea?" Naruto asked and was answered when Thea spat onto the head of his cock, using her hand to pump the saliva over his inches before she took his length into her mouth, making him gasp in pleasure as she pushed forward and wrapped her full lips around his thickness. As she drew back he moaned out, her eyes narrowing with a look of approval in response as she moves up to the head, then pushing back downward to kick off the motion with a nice, steady pace. At the same time she kept her hand pumping firmly over the lower part of him, already double teaming his manhood as she sucked and stroked at the same time
Before Naruto pulled her to her feet, began to attack her neck with kisses, as his hands reached down into her panties, and his finger slipped into her causing her to moan, as her panties came down and he laid her on his bed,
"Last chance, Thea." Naruto said as his member slowly rubbed against her unused neither lips, and when she nodded he said "I'll start out slow." He whispered
Smiling lightly, Thea nodded in appreciation, before her face scrunched up as Naruto began to bury himself into her
Naruto grunted loudly as pushed past her barrier, and smiled down at Thea, before he placed small kisses on her face, as she grabbed onto his shoulders and gritted her teeth, trying to make her mind not focus on the pain but the pleasure of Naruto kissing her sensitive skin. "I-I can't believe it." She whispered with a gasp
Smiling at her, he finally reached the back of her womb and grunted loudly, feeling his dick about to blow at the tight hold she had. "So tight." Groaning, Naruto kissed Thea again, lustfully, while he helped her out of her t-shirt and began to pay attention to her breast
After minutes of Naruto staying motionless and kissing Thea, the girl finally bucked her hips against his, showing she was ready. "Do me." Thea smiled
Naruto pulled out only until the tip was in and with a hard grunt, plunged his cock back into Thea. The sudden hard thump made Thea moan loudly, her mind losing focus
Bracing himself on his fists, Naruto began to hammer away into Thea, as he lost himself in her tight walls "Fuck." Naruto hissed, as he suddenly turned Thea onto her stomach and laid atop of her, as he continued to pound away, as a moaning Thea turned to kiss him, as the headboard began to slam into the wall, Thea was so engrossed in her pleasure that she didn't noticed a clone of her brother appear and walked out of the room taking the form of her step father
Master Bedroom
Moira had been reading a book, when she heard moaning, and the headboard of her son's bed hitting the wall, and blinked as she didn't recall her son bringing anyone home with them, and with a frown made to get up and see what was going on but stopped in surprise when she opened the door and saw Walter standing there smiling at her
"W-walter?" Moira asked surprised
"Hi sweetheart." Naruto's henged clone said before he pulled Moira into a kiss following his boss orders to keep Moira I'm her room, occupied, and make sure she would only thing k of this encounter as a vivid dream
Moira moaned as the clones hands began to explore her body, so engrossed in her pleasure she didn't notice that the kiss was different and better, as her robe fell from her shoulders, and her nightgown was taken off as well, as the clone began to have his way with her
Moira would forget about Naruto having an unknown girl in his room, and her curiosity at who it was, as the man who she thought was her husband gave her the best night of sex she's ever had, and wouldn't even care about Walter vanishing replaced with the form of Naruto whose clone wasn't a big fan of being called someone else' name
Naruto's Room
As his clone kept Moira entertained, Naruto was now straddling Thea's torso as he sucked on his cock, before he emptied his load into her mouth,
The Queen women would have a long and pleasurable night, and think it was all a vivid wet dream, that they would recount perfectly

I am Godspeed welcome to your new reality.
2 Weeks Later
It's been 2 weeks since Naruto arrived in this new world, and he's really been giving it to Moira, and Thea when he wasn't looking into what's changed with his seal, and the largest difference he could find was that for some reason S.T.A.R. Labs was now in Starling City, along with Joe, and Iris living in the city, from what he could see it was like Central City and Starling City had been mashed together but it didn't stop him from crossing off names on Queens list.
Currently Naruto was driving around the city, things on the vigilante front had been slow, as the last 4 names he crossed off the list didn't even really have much of a security force, as he pulled up to his destination in his orange Aston Martin Vulcan, he saw Moira talking to some guy in a suit
"Mrs. Queen, all I'm asking for is a chance to sit down and discuss our proposal." the suit said
"If that's all it is, then I can save us both the time. It's rejected." Moira replied
"I see. May I ask why?" the man asked
"Do I really need to answer that, Mr. Copani? Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm meeting my son for lunch." Moira said seeing Naruto waiting for her on his phone
Naruto sighed as he dropped his phone in his lap, and looked out the window and looked back as he heard tires screeching, getting out of the car, Naruto watched as a figure on a motorcycle drove onto the sidewalk, and his eyes widened when he saw the figure pull out a gun
"Mom get down!" Naruto shouted running forward careful not to use his powers as it wasn't fun that way
Moira, and Copani looked to Naruto just as Copani was shot 3 times, as Moira went down, Naruto slid across the hood of a car and reached Moira "Mom? Are you okay?"
"I'm all right." Moira said as Naruto helped her sit up
"Are you hurt?"
"No, I'm fine." Moira said as Naruto glared in the direction of the motorcyclist not moving to chase them down, as he pulled out his phone and called 911
Later
Starling General
Naruto walked over to Moira as the doctor checked her out "So what are we looking at?" Naruto asked
"I was just telling your mother, that the CAT scan showed a grade-2 concussion. She can go home so long as someone stays with her." the doctor said getting a nod from Naruto as he left
Moira sighed before she noticed the look on Naruto's face and placed a hand on his "I know that look."
"What?"
"Last time, I saw that look on your face, your 7th grade teacher had made a smart comment about our family, and you drove his car off a bridge. Do not do something foolish like go after this person."
"You could be dead, right now." Naruto said
"But I'm not, I only have a concussion. I just feel bad for ."
Naruto sighed "I'll try to get in touch with Walter." Naruto said turning and walking passed Thea, and Lyla who were in the doorway
"Ms. Micheals, please make sure my son doesn't do anything stupid." Moira said
"I will, Mrs. Queen." Lyla nodded
"Thank you." Moira said as Lyla nodded
Later
Naruto, was in a formal suit, when Lyla entered "Your going out tonight?"
"I left a clone, at the house, with her and Thea, they're watching Cop Docs. My top priority right now is finding the shooter, and to do that is to see about Mr. Copani's associate Frank Bertinelli. The mob boss. I did some digging. Copani isn't the first member of Bertinelli's crew who's been hit. Bertinelli has a lot of enemies. The best way to figure out who's trying to target his organization is to get inside of it."
"I thought your mom didn't want you doing this?" Lyla asked
"She thinks it to dangerous, and it might be but not for someone like me. It'll be a cakewalk."
"Then maybe you should tell her, your mysterious origins." Lyla said as Naruto frowned
Flashback
Lian Yui
Rose, and Talia looked at Naruto waiting for him to continue but he just looked at them ""That's it, your not from around here." Rose asked
"Excuse me, but I just met you minutes ago. I'm not going to tell you things that not even my family knows. So yes, I'm not from around here, is all your getting at the moment, till I know that I can trust you."
Rose and Talia frowned while Naruto gazed at them stone faced "Now do either of you have a way off this island or not?"
"There's a plane we plan on stealing." Rose said
"Perfect.' Naruto said standing up "Where is it?"
"We aren't going anywhere till we find Yu Fei." Talia said
"And kill my father." Rose added
"This isn't my fight." Naruto said
"Yet, they still tortured you, all the same." Talia replied as Naruto frowned "You are a warrior, the way you carry yourself says as much. Are you truly going to let them get away with that?"
Naruto frowned as he looked at the two women
End Flashback
"I will just not yet." Naruto said standing up, and walking off, as Lyla sighed
Later
Frank Betenelli walked to the door and opened it to see Naruto with a convincing fake smile on his face " ." he greeted
"Call me Frank." Frank said shaking Naruto's hand
"Call me Naruto." Naruto said
"Yeah, heh. Thank you for agreeing to meet me at my home." Frank nodded
"Living rooms make the best conference rooms." Naruto shrugged
"Oh, I'm gonna steal that." Frank smiled before he motioned to the man standing in the corner "Nick Salvati, my associate."
"How do you do?" Naruto asked getting a nod
"Let's have a drink." Frank said motioning to his living room getting a nod from Naruto who made eye contact with a woman upstairs she wasn't the most beautiful woman he's seen but she was still a looker
Sitting down Naruto looked up when Frank walked over with a glass of Scotch "So, Naruto, I'll be honest with you, I was surprised to hear from you. So, I'll be blunt.I want the contract to build Queen Consolidated's new applied sciences division.
"And I'm inclined to give it to you." Naruto said
"Your mother wasn't so enthusiastic. How is she by the way?"
"She's recuperating at home, thank you."
"What a terrible thing." Frank said as Naruto knew he didn't really mean it
"And, Frank, I was very sorry to hear about what happened to Paul Copani." Naruto said
"Paul was a good friend. He was a good man. The violence in this city sometimes I wonder why I stay."
"I had the same thought." Naruto said
"So... why'd you come back? You could have settled anywhere in the world."
"My family is here." Naruto said with a smile before he looked Frank in the eyes "I'd do anything for them."
"I respect that." Frank nodded before the girl Naruto saw earlier walked in "Naruto, this is my daughter, Helena."
"Hello." Naruto smiled as he stood up
"Nice to meet you." Helena said politely before she turned to her dad "I'm heading out."
"All right. Take one of the guys with you." Frank slightly ordered
"I can take care of myself." Helena frowned as Naruto raised his eye brows and looked away as he drunk from his glass
"Heh. I wasn't asking, sweetie." Frank said with a frown as he gave his daughter a look
"Frank, that meeting you requested? They can do it." Nick said walking in "Now."
"I can come back another time." Naruto said placing down his glass
"No, no, no. Just, uh Just excuse us for a moment, would you?" Frank said getting a nod from Naruto before Frank and his daughter walked away
"Nathan Queen. The rich man's Lindsay Lohan." Helena said as Naruto who was listening eyebrow twitched
"Look, um I've gotta go to this other meeting. But I need someone to take him to dinner." Frank said
"So you pimp out your daughter." Helena glared
"No, I ask her to help me close a business deal. I remind her that the family business is dying and that we need this contract and Nathan Queen can give it to us. Please, sweet pea, huh? For us. For me, hmm?" Frank asked watching his daughter who sighed "That's my girl."
Naruto walked in and Frank looked at him "Naruto I'm so sorry, something has come up. But Helena would love to take you to dinner and discuss the deal further."
"Oh, um I wouldn't want to impose on the plans she already had tonight." Naruto said
"Oh its alright, just as you, uh, speak for your family, my daughter also speaks for ours." Frank said causing Naruto to raise an eyebrow
"It'd be my pleasure." Helena said
"Sure." Naruto replied with a fake smile
"I look forward to working together." Frank said before he walked off as Helena looked at Naruto who looked at her before she walked off and he followed
Later
Frank and Nick was standing in front of Bertinelli Construction, watching as China White and her boss got out of an car before the two approached them "Thank you for coming."
"Anything for a friend." China said
"We're not responsible for the attacks on your people." her boss said in Chinese which China translated
"These attacks on my business, on my family's lifeblood, they stop now. Or I'm coming for you." Frank threatened only for China to smirk as she and her boss walked off
"What does the Triad have to gain by provoking you?" Nick asked
"Well, no one ever credited the Triad with rational thinking. If not them, then who?" Frank asked
Meanwhile, SCPD Precint
Franks voice came through on a computer that Quentin and his partner were listening too "Whoever it is when I find out who's behind this, there will be blood."
Quentin muted the computer as his partner sighed, "Bertinelli's ready to put the screws to everyone who pays him protection money."
"Three of his best earners have been murdered. He's gotta make up the cash somewhere. Whoever is pruning the family tree is looking to make Bertinelli suffer." Quentin said standing up and walking to his murder board
"You think it's one of the other families?"
"No. According to the coroner, none of the vics took a clean shot. Half the bullets missed. Our killer is not a pro." Quentin said
"That's not stopping them from pulling that trigger."
"That's up to us. Or this is gonna blow up into an all-out mob war." Quentin said grimly
Russo's
The owner of the Italian restaurant, lead Helena, and Naruto to a table "You're an angel, Helena." the owner said as he pulled a seat out for Helena, "So beautiful."
"Heh." Helena chuckled
"Well, we are gonna take good care of both of you tonight. You'll tell your father hello from us?" Russo said getting a nod from Helena
"Of course, Mr. Russo." Helena smiled
"I'll give you a minute." Russo said walking off with his wife, as Naruto looked at Helena
"I heard about your mother's accident. Is she gonna be okay?" Helena asked
"She's gonna be fine. Thanks." Naruto said picking up the menu
"I'm glad. So why would you wanna go into business with my father? You know who he is and how he made his money."
Naruto rose an eyebrow, "You don't approve of your family's enterprises?" he asked
"We share a name. That name defines us whether we want it to or not. You've already made judgments about me like I've made judgments about you." Helena said with a frown
"Right. I'm the rich man's Lindsay Lohan." Naruto said causing Helena's eyes to widen slightly as she smiled
"Sorry."
"Don't worry about it." Naruto smiled
"Hey, can I ask you something?" Helena wondered
"Yeah."
"I know it must have been hell for you alone on that island for five years, but, um..." Helena paused as Naruto looked at her paitently, "But was there ever a day when you were just happy to be away from everything? No pressure from your family. No need to be the person that everyone else expects you to be. Was there ever a day when-"
"When I didn't feel lost, that I felt free of the expectations? More than one and, uh those are the days that I miss." Naruto said
A while later the restaurant was empty, while Naruto and Helena were still sitting talking
"People are always asking me, what did I miss the most?" he was saying. "Air conditioning. Satellite radio. Taglia-something."
"Tagliatelle?" Helena asked
"Yeah, that." Naruto nodded "But those are the answers that I give people because those are the answers they're expecting."
"Why can't you just be truthful?" she asked.
"I don't know how truthful I can be." Naruto shrugged
"You've been through a crucible, and it changed you. How can it not?" Helena asked playing with her necklace
"That's beautiful." Naruto said pointing to her cross. "Your cross."
"It's a gift. From my fiancé." Helena replied
"Fiancé? I didn't know you were engaged." Naruto said
"I'm not, anymore. He died." Helena replied sadly
"I'm sorry." Naruto said Kara's face flashing in his mind
"Me, too. That was my crucible." Helena nodded as she sat back when Naruto's phone suddenly rang.
"I'm sorry." Nate said before he answered it
"It's Lyla. Something has come up. You need to get out of there and call me back." Naruto hung up and looked at Helena "Helena, I have to go. There's something that I have to do. It's about my mother, otherwise I would, uh, I would stay."
"And I would like that." Helena admitted as Naruto smiled at her and pulled out a wad of cash that he set down on the table
"My father would kill me if I let you pay." He just smiled, withdrawing his hand, but leaving the money
"I have a confession." Nathan said as he rose "I didn't originally want to go out with you tonight."
Helena smiled "That makes two of us."
"But I'm glad that I did." Naruto finished
"That makes two of us." Helena added, Naruto gave her one last look, then turned to leave. "Nathan." She said suddenly, and he turned around "Be careful with my father." She advised him
Naruto winked and walked off
Queen Mansion
Moira was reading her book, she was waiting for Naruto to come back so they could have some quality time, it was still kinda weird to her to be sleeping with son but she was a woman with needs and he was fulfilling them better than anyone has before she smiled brightly when their was a knock at her door
"Nate, you don't need to knock, honey." Moira said sitting up only to frown when Malcom Merlin walked in
"What about us? I hope you don't mind. Thea let me in." Malcom said walking forward, before he nodded to the door, "He thought he's stay outside."
Moira looked over to the balcony to see a man in a yellow suit vibrating as red glowing eyes looked at her, before she looked to Malcom, "What are you doing here?"
"We wanted to see how your recovery was going." Malcom said
"Surely someone of your means has a telephone." Moira frowned
"I like to see someone when I have something important to talk about. We used to be friends, Moira. I still remember that time. You, me and Robert. Which is why I came by. You are a vital part of this city's future. Robert feared that future. He lost his conviction." Malcom said
"It's been my experience that when someone has a brush with death like you experienced today, even their deepest held convictions can change. Have they?" the man in yellow asked
"No." Moira said strongly as Malcom smirked looking over to the man in yellow
"You didn't have to say it. We can see that they haven't." Malcom said before Malcom left and the man in yellow vanished in red serrated lightning that produced a squeaky helicopter-like sound
Alley
Naruto quickly called Lyla back, "What happened?" he asked.
"Yeah, it's what's happening right now." Lyla began "You know Bertinelli's enforcer, Nick Salvati?"
"Yeah. We drank a scotch together. He seems like a real stand-up mobster." Naruto said
"He's been paying visits to everyone who owes the mob protection money."
"Lyla, I'm trying to figure out who took a shot at Moira, not take on the Italian Mafia." Naruto argued
"Well, Nate, Salvati and his goons have already put 4 people in the hospital tonight," Lyla shot back, finding it weird that he didn't say mom "and if somebody doesn't stop them, the guy who owns Russo's is gonna be next."
"Wait, wait. Did you say Russo's?" Naruto asked
"It's at the corner of Adams and—"
"I know where it is, Lyla. I'm already here."
"Well, that was fast."
"It's not like that. I was having dinner with Bertinelli's daughter." Naruto said
"Nate, the whole point of you going undercover was to find out who took a shot at your mom, not get his daughter into your bed." Lyla scolded.
"She's not my type. Besides, I didn't exactly have a choice." Naruto said before he saw a car park across the street, "Salvati's here. I'll call you back."
Inside
Mr. Russo was counting the night's receipts as his daughter finished cleaning up. She was about to lock the doors when Nick and two other enforcers walked in.
"I'm sorry, we're closed." The girl said timidly. Salvati just gave her a look, and then walked over to Russo.
"Oh, Mr. Salvati. Buona sera. I have some fresh-made lasagna—" Mr. Russo tried, but Nick cut him off
"We're not here for food, Mr. Russo. Your payment's due."
"I already made my payment this month." Russo argued
"You need to pay again." Nick said coldly.
"Please. I can't afford to make another payment if I'm going to—"
"Going to what?" he asked cruelly. He saw several bottles of wine sitting on the bar. "Restock your bar?" he swept the bottles off the bar, and they crashed to the ground sending wine and broken glass everywhere "Break his fingers." He nodded to one of the men.
"Leave him alone!" his daughter yelled, pulling at the goon.
"Break hers, too." Nick shrugged with other goon grabbing the girl when the lights went out
Naruto sped into the restaurant breaking the arm of the goon holding Russo's daughter and knocked out the goon behind him with an elbow, "Run!" Nate demanded as he looked to Nick who was trying to shoot him,
Suddenly the biker from earlier was there, opening fire and taking out another goon when one of the bikers bullets hit the goons leg. She aimed at Nick, but he took cover.
Naruto skid across the desk and kicked her gun out of her grip, and the bicker began to try to hit Naruto who parried her strikes before he grabbed the helmet and lifted it up before he bashed her head in with it, causing the biker to freeze before she collapsed and bleed out
Naruto ran out of the restaurant to see Nick speeding off, and with a grunt he followed the man to Bertineli's house, and as he watched Nick be welcomed Naruto took a deep breath, and spat a huge storm of fire at the house causing it to explode and in a flash of black smooth lightning with a warping sound accompanying him he went to the base
Naruto walked in to see Lyla watching him, "The Bertineli crime family is done for." Naruto said before he smiled as Lyla out her gun to his head
"Who are you?" Lyla asked
"That isn't necessary." Naruto said using a finger to move the gun from his temple only for it to be placed at his crotch, "Really?"
"I asked you a question."
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki or Nathan Allen take your pick." Naruto said
"Where is Nathan Queen?"
"Dead." Naruto said causing Lyla's eyes to widen before she was sped into a wall, his Sharingan spinning, "My counterpart was a bore. So I came from my Earth fresh off of a failed fake invasion and losing my wife to start over here."
Lyla's eyes grew dull, as Naruto implanted memories of her swearing her allegiance to him, and some of the time he spent with her doppelganger on Earth X before Kara killed her when she grew pregnant
Naruto smirked as Lyla's eyes cleared up, and she ran her fingers across his chin, "So what're you going to do now?" Lyla asked her face and Naruto's inching closer together
"Whatever I want. I'm living in the here and now, and right her and right now, I want you." Naruto said before he and Lyla's toungs began to fight
Finished
