Naruto was running. He couldn't have been much more than 8 years old. His hair wasn't the usual sunshine blonde, no it was a muddy blackish-red. His shirt, normally white, was cut to ribbons. His pants weren't in a much better situation, as they showed that they were covered in holes as well. All in all, everyone and their mama could tell that Naruto was clearly wasn't having a good day. No, Naruto was having a very shitty day, a poor week, a sorry month, really the entire year had been bad.
Naruto was running, no limping in a hurried manner, through the streets of his homeland, Konoha. A slight buzz in the air behind him, made him jump up onto a rooftop from the street. It didn't matter though, because Naruto still felt the red-hot pain of being cut into all over his left side. All on his left side, his shoulder, right above his elbow, his ribs, his thigh, his knee and his calf. Everything mentioned was covered in slash marks from Shuriken and Kunai that had been tossed at him from behind.
Naruto dropped to one knee, gasping for air. His lungs burned and his blood was leaking from his body. The wounds that usually hissed and closed within moments of being inflicted, had remaining open. Naruto wasn't sure what was causing this unusual development, but he knew that if he didn't manage to close the wounds quickly, he wouldn't last much longer.
A ninja dropped down in front of Naruto, a standard run of the mill Jonin.
"Naruto, who are the people who did this to you?"
Naruto smirked and said "Well Hurigi-Sensei (Huer-Ge), you know that the civilians always try to attack me. Although, this hasn't really happened since I became a ninja over a year ago."
Hurigi smirked and pulled out a Kunai and slashed at Naruto, causing him to flinch.
And the screen turned black
"Jesus fucking H Christ, does this kid have any memories that don't involve bodies hitting the floor." Complained the robot assistant that criminal mastermind Lex Luther had left behind to extract all of this former ninja turned hero teen.
Mercy wasn't having a day for the ages. No, it was turning out to be one of those days that nothing had gone into her favor. She was tasked with sorting through 18 years of memories in one day. She also knew that people were coming for this teen. He was known all throughout the hero and villain world as a Grade A hero. He was clearly the leader of the junior justice league, and everyone believed that if given some time, he would be one of the strongest league members by the end of the year.
This kid, no young man, was not someone that the Justice League would allow to be taken, when they knew who did it and when they did it. The question wasn't if the Justice League figured out where they were hiding him, now the question was when would they arrive. Mercy wasn't one to really care about anything in life, why would she? She was basically an immortal AI unit placed in a robotic body that was weaponized and constantly tasked with minor and borderline inhumane task by one bald asshole.
'Hmm, I wonder if Luther has THAT type of technology in this shithole of a hideout. It would certainly make everything that I have in mind, so much easier.' Thought the AI known as Mercy. She began to look around the large lab room for a control console different than the one that was scanning the knocked-out teen's brain and memories.
She strolled around the room, looking at every piece of technology that was in the room before she finally found what she desired. The console was a little dusty, as if everyone had given up on using this particular piece of technology despite the amazing results that it had soon in the past. Mercy smirked as her plans came together in such a way that nothing was going to ruin what she had in mind.
So, with only her own semi-selfish reasons in mind, she got to work, using the console. What she didn't know was that this was the worst thing that could have ever happened.
With Deathstroke
Deathstroke was bored. This was a statement of fact, not an opinion. Although everyone in the world could have determined this, even Stevie Wonder. He was the greatest hired gun in the world, and here he was babysitting a robot that was scanning the mind of a teen that had singlehandedly handed him, the world's oldest and 2nd greatest assassin, the world's greatest water-based assassin, and the 2nd fastest man in the universe.
What made it worst, was that this teen literally did it single handedly, because the little shit only had one arm. His right arm was gone from the elbow down, something that had to have limited the efficiency that the young ninja turned hero could fight 4 for the best fighters in the world. It was a humbling experience for Deathstroke, and although Ra had refused to admit it. Deathstroke was absolutely sure that the ancient warrior was back at his compound taking out his 1000-year-old frustrations out on his trainees.
Black Manta was visibly mad at the outcome of the fight, he had been taken out of the fight despite them having the number advantage. And the Reverse Flash had grit his teeth and ran off with his tail between his supersonic speeding legs. This just left Deathstroke alone with the Mercy bot to watch over the process of extracting the knowledge of the kid's world from his world.
Deathstroke was interested in the foreign world that the blond hero came from, but it also hurt his ego to think that there was possibly an entire world full of people who could render him and his services into nothing more than subpar tomfoolery. But as long as Deathstroke was given the resources requested by him, by the Light, he would swallow his pride for now.
In Naruto's World:
Madara looked at the 5 badly beaten kages in front of him in disgust. They weren't strong enough to call themselves the leaders of this world.
"I don't know why you continue to stand, when it's clear that you all don't desire to be the dirt beneath feet. Give up."
Tsunade stood, gasping for air, but pulled herself up until she was standing as tall as she could. She smiled tiredly and Madara's Sharingan eyes narrowed in anger and he said "You stand here in the face of certain death? You Senju, were also a thorn in my side. First that fool who stole the crown of Hokage from me, and now you the sole female heir of his. Why do you stand before me? Look around, you are beaten and broke. Your village is in ashes. Give up, there is nothing left for you to fight for."
Tsunade scoffed and replied with a fire that was the opposite of her physical condition, full of a strong and healthy will, "If you think that just because you killed a bunch of ninja, that I would just roll over and allow you to do as you want, you got another thing coming. I am the 5th Hokage of the Village Hidden in the Leaves, the one who carries the will of fire left by my grandfather. I owe too much to the people of my village and the people of the past to simply let you stream through us without resisting. My ancestors wouldn't have liked it, nor would my Sensei. Worst of all, if I gave up, I would be forsaking the only people who believed in me when I was at my lowest."
Madara scoffed and said, "I grow weary of listening to your power speeches, so hurry this up, so I can rid this planet of you and move on to the people who stand behind you."
Tsunade growled in anger, her blonde pigtails waving in the wind "You'll get to the people behind me, when you step over my cold dead body. I vow it on my life. Naruto wouldn't have given up and neither will I. I will fight you to protect these people with my life."
Madara had barely been listening, I mean, why would he? He was an immortal Demi-God who had single handedly murdered like 10,000 people in the last 2 hours. These 5 "Kage" level Shinobi before him were merely an annoyance that he hadn't blown off the face of the world, yet. So, it was safe to say that he hadn't been paying attention the actual words that had come out of the Blonde Female in front of him, that was true, until this Naruto figure had come up.
Madara clinched his fist and let out a wave of his killing intent, shutting the blonde woman up.
"Naruto Uzumaki, is this the Naruto that you mentioned? I've been looking for him, he has something of mine. I want it back, and I will not be taking a NO for an answer."
Tsunade shook her head and Gaara spoke with some emotion in his voice for once, even if it was barely there "Uzumaki is not among us anymore, He died almost 8 months ago."
Madara grit his teeth and said "Well, I guess I will have to kill you guys and then see what I can do about bring back the brat who holds my pet. Now do you trash want me to use Susanoo or no Susanoo?"
His answer was silence and he spat on the ground and said, "You people just don't know when to accept kindness do you?" And then he attacked.
With Sasuke: His meeting with the Sage of Six Paths,
Sasuke was not having a very good day, week, month, or year. Everything was not awesome and teamwork did not make the dream work. He was on the brink of death, when suddenly he appeared in some world outside of time and space and was talking to the Father of Shinobi.
"It is a shame that I cannot bring out all of the hidden power that is in your body. Without Naruto to complete the circle, with both incarnations of my sons here, I can't restore your complete powers to you. I'm afraid that as long as Naruto is lost to his world, you will be without the tools to defeat Madara."
Sasuke grit his teeth and thought 'No matter what happens, it seems that everything always tracks back to Naruto. He is the center of attention despite the fact that he wasn't anything more than a Dobe and I was the Uchiha Elite. He's not even alive anymore and I am still somehow second fiddle to him.'
The Old Sage shook his head and said, "That is where you are wrong. I said that Naruto is lost to this world, but even as far away as he is, I can still sense my son. Naruto is not on this world. To save this world, you'll have to reconnect with Naruto in another world."
Sasuke shook his head in disgust, but there was nothing that he could do. If the fate of the world was resting in the hands of Naruto, the guy who was supposedly dead, Sasuke wasn't surprised that Naruto had unpredictably managed to live and find his way into a different world.
"How do I find Naruto then?" asked Sasuke.
"There is a portal on the summoning's mountains, past the Land of Iron. You must go there and with the uses of your Sharingan, peer into the void and look for anything familiar. I am sure that you can do it. Now, I must go and you need to begin your journey. Good luck son, you will need it for what is to come. Remember, anger is only as important as you make it."
And just like that Sasuke was back in the real world, fully healed and determined not to be murdered again. He turned and looked at the battle that was taking place not too far away, Madara was beating the living shit out of Gaara as the other kages besides Tsunade laid on the ground defeated. Sasuke tsk'd and turned on heel and ran. He ran from a fight for the first time since that day in the Uchiha compound all those years ago. It was fitting in a sense, Sasuke despite everything that happened over the years was still that scared little kid who saw his brother murder their parents.
It had been around a decade since he witnessed it, and yet here he was, running away again, scared that his life would end to an older Uchiha again. He couldn't even get angry at himself because he knew that this was something that he had to do. He needed to find Naruto and awaken the power of the Sage of Six Paths in both of them, before anyone stood a chance of defeating Madara.
Sasuke was so wrapped up in his own little internal monologue that he missed Madara spotting him in the distance. And while Madara was a little surprised to see that Sasuke was up and running around again (Mostly because the people that Madara put effort into killing generally stayed dead), he wasn't overly concerned. Why would he, he was clearly capable of destroying the younger Uchiha in a fight. So, for now, Madara would just keep on killing these Kages, then he would deal with his wayward descendant.
Back with Naruto
Naruto was having an eh day right now. He had started the day out with a nice tender moment with his super-hot girlfriend, then got attacked by 4 super villains. He was in the process of laying down an ass-whipping so brutal, that they wouldn't be able to air it on the news, when he was stabbed from behind and captured.
But in Naruto's mind, you win some, you lose some. So, while he was captured, the only reason that he was still where he was, is because he wanted to know what these guys really wanted from him. Oh, and he was still waiting for Kurama to fully reform in his mindscape. The ancient nine-tailed fox had been bubbling for around 20 minutes, but had yet to take on a more solid form. So, with this happening, Naruto was playing the waiting game. He didn't have to play for much longer though, because a bright red explosion happened and Naruto covered his eyes.
"Kami, I hate little annoying feeling to reform, it's gets worse every single time I have to do it. It's like trying to squeeze through a tube that just isn't big enough. You can feel the opening at the end, but you can't move forward and you can move backwards. You're just stuck with nowhere to go, but freedom all around you, just out of reach." Said the newly formed Kurama
"Welcome back buddy, I've been waiting for you." Exclaimed Naruto. Naruto stood from his seated position in front of the cage that contained Kurama. Kurama looked down at the tiny blond teen and shook his head.
"Well, congrats, I see you managed to suck it up again. I mean how could you do this to me, I have been by your side for almost 18 years and you couldn't even do the one thing ask of you. Kami, you are like the grand central station of disappointment kid, seriously. Pull your shit together and let's figure, our way out of this." Complained the ancient towering fox.
Naruto nodded and before he could say anything, he dropped to his knees clutching his head.
"AAAAHGHGHGHGHGHGH" Screamed Naruto, as the pain built in his head. It hurt, the pain was worse than almost anything that he had ever felt. He felt his brain being pressured from all sides, the pain driving him to the brink of insanity. Kurama could nothing, but watch as the person who contained him, screamed in pain. He tried to channel his charka into Naruto's body, but that only seemed to make things much worse for Naruto, as he screamed even louder than before, as impossible as that seemed.
Kurama stopped and Naruto stopped screaming, and Naruto gasped once before he collapsed unconscious. Kurama stared at the human in confusion, when he suddenly felt his body being pulled on from all angles. His body was being pulled in every direction, it was like something was trying to tear apart his very essence.
Kurama let out a roar "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA", but the force of the pull got stronger and stronger with each passing second. It was a force that was unlike any that Kurama had ever felt. He groaned as he tried to fight it, but there pulling was unrelenting and there was no end in sight. Kurama gasped as he felt the pull start to undo his body. He tried to tug all of his charka into the center of his body, to remain whole. But for every ounce of charka that he managed to pull to his core, double that amount was pulled away. Suddenly, the pulling stopped and Kurama was left panting, but he couldn't bring himself to relax. If you are being attacked, the attacks don't stop by themselves, usually you have to stop them yourself.
Kurama never got any warning or sign of what was about to happen to him. He took one final breath and suddenly, he exploded. His body burst into trillions of tiny charka filled bubbles and his consciousness was left scattered. The bubbles were sucked up into Naruto's mindscape in all directions, leaving the blond teen alone. The large cage was nearly empty, just a red hazy mist floating around in it. Besides that, and the knocked-out teen, there was nothing left in the mindscape, not even the water.
With Wonder Woman and Zatara
Wonder Woman was using all of the speed that she could, flying slightly faster than needed to break the sound barrier (That is at least 767 miles per hour, that is 1.5 times as fast as a commercial airplane like JetBlue or Delta). Zatara was using magic to propel himself at the same speed, but unlike the Amazonian princess, he was feeling the strain of moving at such high speeds for so long. They had been flying at this speed for 6 and a half hours and where almost there, but Zatara was tired. He had cast a spell to track the young Uzumaki, but that hours ago. The constant drain of keeping the tracking spell was beginning to get to him. That on top of pumping magic to fly at the same speed as Diana, Zatara wouldn't be much of a help in the fight against the people who took Naruto.
Suddenly the arrow that they had been following pointed down in a slant, showing that the location that desired to find was somewhere underground in front of them. They slowed down as the arrow began to sharpen the angle at which it pointed at the ground. They completely stopped when the arrow pointed straight down. Diana looked at the magic man, and asked, "How are you Zatara? We are here, we can rest for a moment before we charge in there."
Zatara released a sigh of relief and Diana shook her head at how little stamina the wizard had. Zatara caught his breath, feeling his reserves of magic refill as he took a couple minutes to recover. He gave Diana, a thumb up, and the duo began their descent. They landed and Diana eyed a trap door on the ground, hidden partially by some snow. She looked at Zatara and said "Set up a small barrier, once we are in. Nobody leaves." Zatara grunted and nodded, not trusting his voice with the anger and bloodlust in the Woman of Wonder's voice.
Diana reached down and with strength that Zatara couldn't muster on his best day, ripped the large steel door clear off the hinges. Diana jumped down into the hole and Zatara jumped after her. He looked up and said "noissimrep ym tuohtiw evael nac ydobon hcihw ni reirrab A" (A barrier in which nobody can leave without my permission). Diana watched a yellow bubble formed over the opening.
Zatara looked at the raven-haired beauty and said, "Nobody that doesn't have my permission can leave." She nodded and the duo began their walk down the hall. There was no turns or entryways to more hallways, no they saw nothing but a long hallway. Eventually, they came to an opening in the hallway, it was a large room. The room was a lot like the hallway, made of grey stone and completely bare of any type of paint or décor. Zatara looked at the room and smirked. He wasn't sure what type of trick, they thought that Diana and he would fall for, but this wasn't something that they were going to fall for. Zatara, also knew that they didn't have time to waste with this.
Clearing his throat, Zatara said, "Em ot flesruoy laever, moor eht ni enoyreve" (everyone in the room, reveal yourself to me). A bunch of people dropped in from the corners of the room along with the ceiling. Diana smiled evilly and launched herself directly into the battle, with no intentions of doing anything less than brutally crippling these opponents. Zatara didn't want to waste any time with these people. There was a reason that they were in this first room, these guys where expendable. These people were little more than cannon fodder.
Raising his hand, Zatara chanted, "sllaw eht ot dennip teg ,seilla ym dna em tsniaga dnats ohw esoht llA" (All those who stand against me and my allies, get pinned to the walls). All the people who had been forced to reveal themselves to Diana and Zatara flew back against their will and crashed into the wall. Zatara wasn't finished though, he had pinned them but that wouldn't hold them forever.
"sruoh 42 rof peels ot og ,I dna seilla ym fo yaw eht ni dnats ot erised ohw esohT" (Those who desire to stand in the way of my allies and I, go to sleep for 24 hours) Zatara spell did as desired and put everyone but Diana and him to sleep. Diana glanced back at the sorcerer and the two nod at each other as they continued the march towards the center of the base, looking for Naruto. They pick up the speed, running through the hallway and they flight through room after room. Zatara casually blowing groups back with his magic and Wonder Woman bashing in heads left and right, allowing Zatara the time to cast his spells.
They could tell that as they ran into better trained League of Shadows members, that they were getting closer. Finally, they reached a room and alone stood one man. The single figure made Diana's eyes burn with anger and Zatara stepped back in fear.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here? A spoiled princess and a fancy party favor of a magician. If I didn't know any better, I would say that the two of you are looking for something in here. I wonder what that could be? Is it this teen that I stabbed my sword through? It –" Deathstroke didn't get to say anything as he was punch in the face with such strength that he felt his jaw unhinge and his teeth vibrate. His brain felt like a melting slushy and he blacked out for a moment, before he climbed out of the wall that he was indented in. He thought that it might have been Diana to hit him with such force, but he was generally surprised to see a group of young teen in the room as well.
It was the light skin boy with pitch black hair that had his arm outstretched from the punch. Slade was instantly drawn to the red S shield on his black shirt. He recognized the traffic light dressed kid behind the Boy of Steel, as well as the yellow speedster. The green girl was instantly connected to the Martian, and the black teen with yellow hair had the looks of those pesky people from beneath the sea. This must have been the junior justice league that had been causing the Light some issues.
Diana looked that Team and said, "I don't know what you are doing here, but you shouldn't have come."
Robin shook his head and said, "We followed you, we are here for Naruto. Naruto would not let any of us get captured and not try to get us back. We are just returning the same courtesy to Naruto." Diana nodded and said, "Well, Naruto will not be much further along. Go with Zatara and get Naruto. I will stay here and deal with this swine."
The tone sent chills down the Teams backs, so when Zatara turn and ran away, they quickly followed him.
"I would have never taken you for such a coward, staying here to fight me by yourself." Taunted Deathstroke.
"I find it honorable to stay and fight you by myself, it is the warrior way." Stated Diana.
"The Warrior's way, it may be. However, suicide is the coward's way out." Said Deathstroke.
Diana said nothing as she closed her eyes and mentally said a prayer to the Gods. Her prayer was answered as a she extended her hand and in a flash of light, she held a 4-foot-long broadsword. Deathstroke gulped and gripped his own sword, slightly on edge because with Wonder Woman's vast strength and speed, she was a swordsmen's worst nightmare.
"Bring up your blade or die like the swine that you are" called out Diana as she rushed forward. Deathstroke barely managed to bring up his guard before a CLANG! Was heard as their swords met. Slade was being pushed back from first contact, when Diana pushed a little, his guard broke. She kicked him in the chest and he felt the air leave his body. Bent over a little, he was in perfect position for when she used her fist to slug him in the face, he stumbled backwards and she followed up with a lethal combo of several body shots.
Slade gasped for air as his ribs paid the price for his past transgression. Despite how badly he was getting his ass handed to him, he still climbed to his feet and held his sword in attack position. He couldn't afford to get absolutely destroyed here, it wouldn't do for his rep nor his position in the Light. With all of that on his mind, he launched himself at the super powered women, leading the way with a sword slash. Their swords met again and Slade thought 'Jesus Christ, why does she have to be so strong'
The Team Plus Zatara
They had left Wonder Woman to deal with Deathstroke and had sped off further into the base, looking for their captured leader. They had entered two more rooms filled with more League of Shadow members, but some quick "rebmuls peed a otni llaf ,seilla ym dna em fo ymene meed I taht esoht llA" (All those that I deem enemy of me and my allies, fall into a deep slumber) and a "em pots ot gniyrt no nalp uoy fi ,sllaw eht otni kcab detsalb teG" (Get blasted back into the walls, if you plan on trying to stop me).
They managed to finally walk into a lab, and saw something that made them all stop. It was a lab table with a figure under a blanket. They were too nervous to look underneath and possibly find someone with results that they didn't want. Zatara took a breath and said "evila era taht lla em ot laeveR" (Reveal to me all that are alive). The team plus the magic man all glowed a bright white and the figure under the sheet also glowed. Zatara looked at the person, and as the team let out a collective sigh of relief, spoke again, "em ot flesruoy laever ,teehs eht rednu uoY" (You under the sheet, reveal yourself to me)
The sheet flew off of the lab table and everyone saw that it was indeed Naruto. Robin looked at him, happy that they had found their comrade, but also couldn't figure out what was different about this Naruto, than the one he had last scene. Zatara relaxed and said "pu ekaw lliw uoy ,ikamuzU oturaN deedni era uoy fi" (if you are indeed Naruto Uzumaki, you will wake up)
There was a groan and everyone looked as the Naruto on the lab table awoke. He struggled to get to sit up. He pushed himself up and it clicked to Robin what was different about this Naruto. His right arm, the one that had turned to stone and had been punched off by Superboy was there. The arm that had been missing from the elbow down was suddenly whole again. Naruto groaned as he scratched his head and asked, "What are you guys going here?"
Zatara chuckled and replied, "Well, Diana asked that I help locate and rescue you." Naruto nodded and yawned loudly before he spun his legs over the edge of the table and jumped down. He was wearing some black sweatpants, but no shirt. The team got to see a jagged circle like scar that was near his heart, and wondered what could have done that their leader.
Naruto groaned as his body protested his movement and said, "Well, you said you were here with Diana, let's see if we can run into her before he gets super angry and storms in here ready to kill me for getting captured. I know for a fact that nobody is trying to deal with an angry Diana, especially not me."
Kid Flash chuckled and made some whipping noises, and Naruto said, "You're just jealous that the girls actually like me." A rain cloud formed over Kid Flash and Robin laughed at him. Superboy turned and hugged Naruto, cracking his spine in the process. "Down boy" croaked Naruto. Superboy dropped Naruto and Naruto crumpled to the floor.
Everyone hear boots tapping coming down the hall, and everyone looked as shadowy figure walked down the hall. Naruto jumped to his feet and everyone saw Deathstroke emerge from the shadows. Naruto's eyes narrowed and slid into a fighting stance.
Suddenly, the merc for hire, was thrown to the ground revealing Diana. Naruto relaxed for a second before he was slammed into by a freight train. Naruto crashed onto his back, and Diana was straddling him. Naruto went to open his mouth, but suddenly he was receiving a punch to the face. Diana was raining punches on his face, but Naruto did nothing to stop her from landing the blows. He waited as the punches slowed down until Diana wasn't even putting an amount of real strength in it. He grabbed her wrists at that point and pulled her into a hug.
"I'm sorry" he whispered in her ear and she remained silent. She pulled back and looked him in the eyes, before she kissed him. The tender moment lasted for about a minute before they ended the kiss and Diana climbed off of Naruto. Naruto jumped back up to his feet and Diana looked at him with tears that wouldn't fall, in her eyes.
"The next time, you get captured, you better rescue yourself before I find out. I will break you out and then kick your ass for making me worry about you like this. I think that once was enough, anymore and whatever they plan to do to you, will be the least of your worries." Said Diana. Naruto smiled and said, "If you say so." Before he slung his arm around Wonder Woman, pulling her close to his side
Naruto turned to the Team and Zatara, "Let's get out of here"
With Mercy and Lex Luther
Lex Luther generally didn't hold Mercy in high regards, she was a robotic version of a human meat shield to him. However, today she had done something that made him very happy. She had foreseen the arrival of the heroes coming to get the blond hero that they had captured and planned according. She cloned the brat, full of their Cadmus mind controlling commands and had given the clone back to the rescue team as she slipped out the back with original.
So, here Lex was giving Mercy, the final commands of the day, "Throw the ninja brat into confinement, with that British fellow. What's his name? Constanta?"
Mercy rolled her eyes and said "Constantine sir. And right away." She grabbed the leg of the previously mentioned blond ninja and dragged him through the halls. She came to a cell and opened the door, saying, "Move back magic man, or I'll use the Taser again." The dirty man inside scrambled to the back of the cell, and Mercy opened the door and tossed the knocked-out blond into the cell.
"Bloody hell love, watch where you're throw shite. You'll damage a bloke if you don't aim." Called out the British prisoner.
Unknown Location
A man had just woken up, his head was ringing. He tried to push himself up, but he was missing his right arm from the elbow down. He managed to climb to his feet and realized that he was inside some kind of hut. He stumbled into a flap covered doorway and fell forward onto his face. He was barely able to brace himself for the fall. Everything he did seemed sluggish, as if he was used to moving so much faster. Someone came a pulled him up, they helped him stand, before supporting him as they led him somewhere.
The man groaned as he was half carried, half dragged through the hut, until they stopped. The man saw that they were in a bathroom of some sort. The mirror showed that the man had a cleanly shaven head and that his lower face was covered in some kind bandages. He turned and saw a plain looking lady helping hold him up.
The lady looked at him and said, "Mister, do you know where you are?" he shook his head no "You are in New Zealand, you just appeared in a field." The man looked surprised by that information. The woman filed that away for later, as all information was important when dealing with the unknown. And the man of to her side was the unknown. She decided that she would be direct in her questioning.
"So, what is your name? maybe someone is looking for you, mister." She asked. The man looked at her with puzzled eyes and said in a really weak and raspy voice "My name, I have no idea. I don't remember anything."
A/N: So, the latest chapter is out, the one I said was coming in January. I am not as happy as I normally am with the way that this chapter developed, but I also don't want to change it because I feel that it was necessary for the progression of my story. This is the chapter the people need, not the chapter the people deserve. Now the next chapter, I am leaning toward releasing around February 11 or 17th.
Now, the usual applies to that update date, it will all depend on my school and work schedule. As, I mentioned before I have actually just finished the paper work to declare my major, I am going to be a biophysicist. I can't wait to get my degree and ride off into the sun set, but after I also need to get prepared for my master's program starting this spring, and by spring, I mean February 3rd.
Now I was thinking up putting a little interactive twitter page for this story, let you guys know how the updates are coming along and when they will be coming out. It could be fun, maybe review or pm what you think about that. If I do decide to do it, I will put the information in my profile bio. I am going be posting a poll on my profile bio. Please I would like to get some votes of this, but if I am not going to set a solid number of votes desired, because I don't believe that that works.
I have once again tried to add a bit more of a connection between Wonder Woman and Naruto, they are dating and I honestly believe that if the person that you are dating is kidnapped after you left them to go get help, then you would also be emotionally torn up. Wonder Woman is a proud person and anyone who she feels invested in or attached to, I honestly believe would get her entire being in terms of protection. She's easily as strong as Naruto is in my story, if not stronger. She is determined to get him back because he feels like she is partly at fault due to not being there. If anything happens to someone you love after you leave them, the common theme is the belief that you could have been the thing that makes the biggest difference in the world.
I also have a major surprise coming up, but you'll never figure it out as I have placed an Easter eggs for a future main character, two chapter ago. He will be of great importance to this story. It was a little clever and I will give you a hint, it is something spelled out over a couple of paragraphs, use the first letter of the sentence to figure it out.
Another plot twist is coming to this story, but I don't think anyone has managed to figure it out. There is not going to be any hints about this one other than to keep an open mind.
Once again, I am always open to suggestions and such. If you want to leave it in a review, that is fine. I read all of my reviews for all of my stories. If you are shier, feel free to DM or Private Message me whatever you think I can improve on.
