"You guys got it down pat," said Shisui.
"pants slightly How can you five be so calm about this," asked Kuwabara.
"Experience," said the five.
"Will this help us fight with Serena," asked Michelle.
"Of course," said Yusuke.
Throughout the month, the two scouts, the spirit detectives, the genin team, Genkai, and the two immortal beings were training hard for the upcoming battle between good and evil. The two scouts and Kurama were the only three who got the exercise. Genkai had a little bit difficulty with the exercises because they had to refine it for her tired body. She may be strong, but her body could wear out from the harsh exercise. Hiei didn't really care, but had some difficulty with the exercise. The worst out of all of them was Kuwabara because he didn't want to listen to their explanations on chakra control and other things. Yusuke was ready to hit Kuwabara over the head, but Serena beat him to it. "Pay attention Kuwabara," shouted Serena.
"Why do we have to learn this catra thing," complained Kuwabara.
"It's chakra, dummy," said Taka.
"Good luck with Kuwabara, bro," said Serena as she got a portal open.
"Where are you going," asked Amara.
"To where I usually went to," said Serena, "Angel Grove."
"Bye guys! And good luck with the idiot over there points to Kuwabara," said Tomika as all four of them left inside the portal.
- In Angel Grove High –
"Class, today, we have a returning student joining us with three of her little helpers," said Miss Applebee.
The Power Rangers and everyone else in the class were looking very curious. They didn't have old classmates that left the country, except for Jason, Kimberly, Zack, and Trini. The Power Rangers knew that Trini was a Mist ninja, and the entire class knows that Jason, Zack, and Kimberly were already introduced to the entire class. As the door opens, three 10-year-old kids run into the classroom: a boy with red hair, a boy with blue hair, and a girl with blonde hair. "I win again," shouted a happy girl.
"No fair, Tomika! You pushed me down," said the red hair.
"Don't you want me to win against you," asked the blue hair.
"Um… blush Of course Shisui," said Tomika.
"Hey! What about me," shouted the red hair.
"What about you, Taka," asked Tomika.
"You two…" growled Taka.
"Excuse me! Where on earth is your sister," asked Miss Applebee.
"She's coming," said the three.
The class looked on with shock wide-eyes. They thought that they were only going to have a new student, which Miss Applebee says that she's an old classmate of theirs. They didn't realize that these three kids were the ones Miss Applebee explained to them were the special helpers in class. The Power Rangers were wondering who would bring three 10-year-olds to school with them. The door opens once more and steps in: Serena Uzumaki! "Sorry about that, Miss Applebee. These three ran ahead of me," said Serena.
"It's fine," said Miss Applebee as she turns around to introduce Serena.
Serena! She's suppose to be in Okinawa, thought the Power Rangers.
Wow, Serena looks better than the last time I saw her, thought one guy, Jason.
- In Obaida –
"That's a good form," said Kari.
"slight huff How can you people do this everyday," asked Amy.
"Experience," said Tai and Kari.
The entire digidestined, digimons, and the two sailor scouts were working their butts off from training. It has been a month since their training, yet the entire digidestined, digimons, and two scouts, saves for Tai, Gatomon, Kari, and Agumon, were tired from the training. Yolei and Mimi were complaining about the hard training. Davis and Veemon were complaining by the lack of sleep they were getting. The others were just too tired to complain about anything. Tai and Kari looked at each other and then back at the group. "Break time," said Agumon.
"Finally," said Ken.
"I can't handle this," said Taiki.
"Don't you want to help Serena fight the evil," asked Kari.
Innocent as the question was, Taiki and Amy were back up with energy. They wanted to help Serena in the first place like she helped them with their problems, such as socializing with other people. Tai smiled and did the same thing with the digidestined and the digimons, except he used the terms destruction of earth and digital world's end. "We're ready," shouted Sora as she raised her body up with vigor.
"Good because the evil won't stop to wait until you gain your energy. So, we're going to up your weights," said a smirking Gatomon.
"Aw man," shouted everyone as they waited for the weights.
- In Juuban –
"Good job," said Temari.
"breaths heavily This is such a hassle," said Kakyuu.
"Just think about how we have to do our training when we were gods and goddesses," said Naruto.
"I'll bet that it's nothing like this," said Seiya.
"It was worse," said Shikamaru.
And true to Shikamaru's words, the training was much worse. The training had to go through a bunch of genjutsus, ninjutsus, and wild animals. They had to survive against all the horrible things around space instead of just one area like the digidestined and the two scouts in front of them. Well, Naruto was contemplating to see if he should bring some of the ninjas to the Hiwaki shrine. "Just bring them here," said Shikamaru.
"But…" started Naruto.
"No buts, dear friend," said Temari.
"All right," said Naruto as he disappears from view.
- In Jump City –
"Ah," shouted the Teen Titans and two scouts.
"blink Alright," said Raven.
"What are you doing here," asked Beastboy.
"I thought that you were going to save the world," said Cyborg.
The Teen Titans, Lita, and Trista were sitting around the Titan's tower. Lita and Trista felt that they were useless to Serena since they didn't have the powers to help in anyway. The Titans thought that they were useless to help fight the evil as well. Beastboy didn't even play pranks on Cyborg and Cyborg didn't care at all about the games he was playing! Everyone was depressed, but two flashes of light sounded behind them. They yelled out in surprise to see the two remaining Titans behind them. "We are going to save the world. Unless you don't want to train," said Raven.
"We're going to be helping," asked an excited Beastboy.
"Yes, dear friends, including you two scouts," said Starfire.
"What are we waiting for! Let's go," shouted Lita.
"As you wish," said Raven and Starfire as they sent them to the Hiwaki Shrine through a portal.
"Not the fall," shouted the scouts.
- In Konoha –
"Great to be back here," said Naruto as he appeared in the park.
- With the Konoha 12, senseis, and other people –
"I miss Naruto's antics," said Ino.
"I miss Shikamaru's smart remarks," said Asuma.
"I miss Temari's crazyness," said Kankurou.
The Konoha 12, minus Shikamaru and Naruto, the Sand siblings, minus Temari, the senseis, Shizune, TonTon, Akamaru, Konohamaru, Udon, Moegi, Tsunade, Jiraiya, Ibiki, and Anko were sitting near the park where Naruto appeared in a flash. They were too focused on what they miss about Naruto, Shikamaru, and Temari. Sasuke was still bad-mouthing Naruto, yet he was stopped by Trini, Tsunade, and Sakura. When the three were gone, Sakura and Ino shaped up and Trini was in Konoha for a year of exchange program between one ninja from Mist and Konoha. Iruka was sad that his brother was gone while trying to get Kakashi to stop reading those horrid books. Jiraiya and the rest of the senseis were angry at Sasuke because he had the galls to insult Naruto. "I wonder where they are now," asked Chouji as he sat with Ino on his laps.
"Apparently, showing up with Chouji and Ino, along with Lee and Sakura, as couples," said Naruto behind the group.
"Ah," shouted everyone.
"Hiya," said Naruto.
"Brat, where the hell have you been," asked Tsunade as she hugged the life out of Naruto.
"I think Naruto needs to breathe," said Trini.
"Boss! Where have you been," shouted the Konohamaru Corps.
"Eh, all over the place," said Naruto, "Anyways, came here to find some people who wants to train for the evil."
The ninjas were shock to hear Naruto propose to them that they can come with him to train to become powerful. Sasuke looked at this proposal as a step to defeat his brother once again. The senseis looked on and were wondering who will accompany Naruto. Naruto smiled and said, "Hm. Let's see who to choose."
Dobe better chose me, thought Sasuke.
"I choose: Gaara, Trini, Hinata, Iruka, Kakashi, Asuma, Kurenai, Ino, Sakura, Chouji, TenTen, Neji, Shino, and Kiba," said Naruto.
"Why didn't you choose the other people as well," asked Tsunade.
"Well, you're the Hokage, Shizune has to keep you going with the Hokage, Jiraiya is a perv, the other senseis have to stay just in case, the Konohamaru Corps are too young for this, Kankurou will have to take care of Kazekage business with the help of Baki, and Sasuke is just too self-centered with his high-mighty-ness," sad Naruto.
"What does that mean, dobe," growled Sasuke.
"It means that you are consumed by hatred and revenge to be a candidate for the training to come," said another voice.
"Who's there," demanded Gai.
"It's me," said a person as he steps out of the shadows.
"Itachi Uchiha," shouted everyone, except for Naruto.
There's something different about Itachi. He seems more like an immortal than a mortal. Is he another reincarnate, thought Naruto.
"Die Itachi," shouted Sasuke.
Sasuke charged towards Itachi and tried to harm him, yet something was amiss. Itachi didn't move as the chidori went through his body. As the attack went through, everyone held their breath while Naruto still tried to figure out who Itachi REALLY was. Sasuke was satisfied with the hole that he made and walked backwards to see Itachi fall. Yet, something happened to Itachi. A black mist went around Itachi's body and as the mist fade, the wound was gone! Sasuke was about to charge again, but Naruto made seals to contain Sasuke in a sun-reflected dome. "Dobe, what are you doing," shouted Sasuke.
"I believe that Itachi has some answers for me, or should I say Osiris, god of resurrection," said a calm Naruto.
"SAY WHAT," shouted everyone.
"Good that you remember me," said Itachi, "However, I just gained my memories from my brother Seth, the god of chaos."
"Are you here to help us defeat Yofuzen or defeat us," asked a serious Naruto.
"To help you of course," said Itachi as he enveloped the chosen ones and Naruto in his black mist before disappearing from Konoha.
There they go, thought the ninjas.
It should have been ME that went with them, thought an angry Sasuke.
- In a dark realm –
"Foolish brother," said a shadowy figure.
"There's an assembly for us," said another.
"I'll be coming," said the first before both left to walk into a huge room filled with crystal-like appearance and dark crimson carpeting.
Among the two figures were seven other members. Upon a huge flash, another figure stepped out. He had red glowing eyes and midnight black hair. Some would say that he was Darien, but he was Yofuzen, the man who was reincarnated as Darien as he got out of the blasted barrier the gods and goddesses put him in. No one knew that Yofuzen was also the leader of Akatsuki, having gained the three-tailed and five-tailed demons inside one of the nine crystal pillars. No one expected that the Akatsuki were the reincarnations of the evil demented gods. Deidara was the reincarnation of Themis and Sasori was the reincarnation of Bast, both cat gods who fought two goddesses to test the strength of their enemy as spies. Kisame was the reincarnation of Chitsuki, the god of blood. Konan was the reincarnation of Isei, the goddess of power. Tobi was the reincarnation of Torabi and Zetsu was the reincarnation of Tebiki, the travel gods who had the same motives as the cat gods during the tournament. Kakuzzu was the reincarnation of Akagi, the god of greed. And Hidan was the reincarnation of Kiru, the god of kill. All the Akatsuki members were present, with their new member, Seth. "Hello Master Yofuzen," said the 9 people.
"Welcome all to our new place," said Yofuzen.
"It's better than the caves, Lord Yofuzen," said Zetsu.
"Now for the planning of the downfall of our enemies," shouted Yofuzen.
"Yeah," shouted the Akatsuki members.
Brother, you made a grave mistake on going to the good side, thought Seth as he relieved his reincarnation self as: Madara Uchiha!
AN: Yahoo! I finished another chapter for my story! I know that it was sudden, but I made the Akatsuki as reincarnates too! The Olympian gods and goddesses don't know about this reincarnation, so the Akatsuki didn't get tested to stay. Besides, they are evil, except for Itachi (note: Itachi already did the test when he was Anbu for Konoha). I was wondering if I should change the parings of Hermione and Ron to someone else. So, give hints for Hermione's soulmate. Should it be Ron or someone else? But I'm also having second thoughts on Sasuke and Trini. If you guys want Sasuke and Trini to be together, please give me some idea on how to get them together! And if you don't, should Trini be with someone else? Should Sasuke be with someone else or become alone? Give me some idea for Itachi as well! Thank you!
