(And here I am with my newest chapter featuring Naruto and Ben finally meeting. Hope you enjoy it.)
Moments ago
Present time in Konoha
In a clearing in Konoha's training ground, Naruto and Sasuke were sparing in Taijutsu, Hinata was attacking Akane with her mana as the alien fox girl was using her quick reflexes and evasive maneuvering to dodge, and Sakura and Tenten were sparing as well.
"This extra training exercise after the standard Plumbers training is just what we all could use." Tenten said.
"I'll say." Sakura agreed, as she blocked a punch from Tenten.
Hinata was blasting at Akane with mana shots, while the alien girl was dodging and whipped out her blaster, "Taste this!" she started shooting at Hinata.
The Hyuga used a mana shield to block the shots, and answered her, "Sorry. I'm not hungry."
Akane giggled, "Good comeback, Hinata."
As Naruto and Sasuke spared, Naruto jumped back and summoned three shadow clones to aid him in fighting Sasuke. Naruto and his clones fought Sasuke, as he used his Sharingan and Taijutsu to knock the clones out and they went poof.
Naruto squinted his eyes, "Using Sharingan, Sasuke? Well, two can play at that game." he activated the Omnitrix and transformed.
The alien he took the form of was a red mollusk-like alien with an armored exoskeleton, "Water Hazard!"
Sasuke was taken by surprise, having never seen that alien before. Water Hazard surprised Sasuke by firing pressurized water blasts from the portholes in his palms. Sasuke was blasted backwards by the blasts leaving him soaked to the bone.
The girls ceased their sparing and saw what Naruto did. After he transformed back he chuckled, "Ooh, I got you good, Sasuke!"
Sasuke sat up, "I never saw that alien before."
"I know. Azmuth hooked me up with a few more aliens two days ago. That was water Hazard, an alien capable of shooting pressurized water blasts."
"Yeah. I got that." Sasuke said dryly, as he felt like a drowned rat.
"Here, I can help dry you off," Naruto reactivated the Omnitrix and became a turtle-like alien, "Terraspin!"
Sasuke got up and looked shocked again, as Sakura asked, "What alien is that?"
"Terraspin, and here's what he can do." He sunk his head into his shell, opened a hatch to see, his fins became triangular, and his legs combine into a similar shape. His shell hovered up and his limbs rotated at a fast speed creating a strong wind. Sasuke felt like he was about to fly backwards, but stood his ground.
Terraspin stopped the blowing and became Naruto again. Him and the girls looked at Sasuke seeing his hair was blown back. Naruto held in a giggle before bursting out into a fit of laughter at how he looked. Akane after getting a good look at Sasuke started laughing with Naruto.
Sasuke scowled at them, before, "Are you two done?"
They ceased their laughter, "Yeah, we're done." Naruto answered, breathing hard from how hard he laughed.
"I think this concludes our after hours workout." Tenten suggested.
"I agree." Hinata nodded.
Sakura spoke up to Naruto, "Those two new aliens sure are impressive, Naruto."
"You think they were impressive you should see some of the others I've unlocked."
"Like what?" Hinata asked.
"Well, I'll show you." Naruto was about to activate the Omnitrix again, only for a portal to appear out of nowhere.
"I'm afraid there's no time for that." came a voice from the portal.
Out stepped an adult man with black and gray hair, wearing a white and gold old English outfit, wore green lensed goggles around his neck, had a large metal glove on his right hand, and in his left hand was a cane.
"Good afternoon, shinobi of Konoha." he greeted them.
"Whoa, who're you?" Tenten gasped.
"He just appeared out of nowhere." Sakura was surprised.
Naruto approached, "You. You're really him. You're Professor Paradox."
The Professor smiled, "You are correct my young blonde ninja."
Akane gasped, "Professor Paradox? Guys, remember in Plumber's history? Professor Paradox was the time walker who aided Ben Tennyson in stopping the Highbreed Invasion, defeating Eon, and the Chronosapien Maltruant.
"Right on the dot, my dear." Paradox confirmed.
When Sasuke, Sakura, and Tenten remembered his name, they bowed their heads, "Forgive us for not recognizing you at first, sir." Sakura said.
"No trouble at all, Sakura."
"You know my name?"
"I know all of you. Sasuke Uchiha, Tenten, Hinata Hyuga, Akane, and even you Naruto Uzumaki, newest wielder of the Omnitrix."
Naruto nodded seeing it was all true, "What brings you to our time period?"
Paradox sighed, "I'm afraid I have upsetting news concerning the past."
"What do you mean?" Sasuke asked.
"Your enemies Valmark, Orochimaru, and their forces have traveled back to the past and are hoping to rewrite the future by destroying Ben Tennsyon."
"What?!" the group asked in shock.
"That's insane." Naruto said.
"Can't you do anything about it?" Hinata asked Paradox.
"I cannot interfere directly, but I can however bring help to stop them." the time walker explained.
"Help?" Sasuke pondered before realizing, "You mean us."
"Precisely." Paradox confirmed.
"Well, you don't even have to ask, we'll help." Naruto volunteered.
"I knew you would." Paradox said smugly.
Naruto looked at Sakura, Sasuke, Hinata, Tenten, and Akane, "Up for a little time traveling?"
"I am. I've always wanted to see the past." Akane answered.
"Could be fun." Sakura admitted.
"And an experience." Sasuke added.
"I'm in." Hinata voiced up.
"Me too." Tenten concluded.
"Ok, Paradox, take us to our destination."
"As you wish." Paradox opened a portal taking the shinobi/plumbers with him.
Bellwood the Past
Paradox appeared on a rooftop with the shinobi, "Welcome my friends, to Bellwood Present day. Well, Present to those of this time period."
"We get the picture." Sasuke answered, not wanting him to start joking.
Hinata looked down from the roof, and gasped, "Guys, look at this."
They looked down and saw a fight was already taking place, "Ninenine." Sasuke noticed.
"And that's Tachiko." Naruto added.
"And look who they're fighting." Akane pointed out at Shocksquatch, Gwen, Kevin, and Rook.
"Are they really?" Tenten asked, as Paradox answered.
"Ben Tennyson, Gwen Tennyson, Kevin Levin, and Rook Blonko."
"Team Tennyson." Naruto said in nostalgia.
"I'll leave you to deal with things here. I'll be back when I know you've succeeded." Paradox vanished into a portal.
"He's gone." Sakura said.
"He was our ticket back to our time." Tenten added.
"We'll worry about getting back later, right now they need our help." Sasuke spoke up/
"Yeah. Come on!" Naruto called, as they jumped from the roof.
Sasuke and Sakura whipped out some kunai and shuriken and threw them at Tachiko. Tachiko jumped back to avoid the hits, as the group landed before them.
Naruto pulled Ben up to his feet, "Thanks, man. But who're you?" Ben asked.
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki," he held up his wrist that had the Omnitrix, "And me and my friends are here to help."
"You have an Omnitrix?" Ben asked in confusion.
"You wanna talk or you wanna fight?" Naruto asked, as he activated his Omnitrix.
"Ok, but I expect some answers after this."
"Deal." both Naruto's activated their watches and transformed.
"Feedback!" Ben called.
"Armodrillo!" Naruto called, as he became a bulky yellow armored armadillo alien with drill like hands.
"Let's go!" Feedback called, as he powered up using a nearby car and started attacking Tachiko with Armodrillo.
The others went to help Kevin, Gwen, and Rook against Ninenine, "Let me just say it's an honor to fight along side the famous Kevin, Gwen, and Rook." Akane told the three who were confused.
"Do we know you?" Kevin asked.
"No, but I hope we get to know each other soon." Akane answered, as the group fought.
Up on top of the other roof, Orochimaru, Valmark, Kilotron, and the Sound Amalgams observed, and Orochimaru was looking irritated, "What? What are they doing here?!"
"This shouldn't be possible!" Valmark growled.
Kilotron spoke, "I assure you this is not of my doing."
"What do we do now?" Jirobo asked his master.
Orochimaru answered, "Get down there, and get Ninenine and Tachiko out of there. We need to regroup and rethink our strategy."
"Yes, sir." Kimmimaro answered, and the five jumped down to join their comrades.
Back down below Feedback was firing electrical blasts at Tachiko who was dodging before launching explosives at Feedback distorting him.
"Jeez, you think this guy has enough gadgets?" Feedback asked.
"Unfortunately." Armodrillo answered, as he tried drill punching Tachiko who jumped aside and shot lasers form his belt.
As Ninenine was blasting at the others, Akane was jumping around before blasting the hunter with her blaster. She landed by Rook who spoke.
"You're very good in combat."
"Thank you."
Gwen and Hinata were firing blasts of mana at the hunter, as Gwen asked, "So you're also an Anodite?"
"Yes. Surprised me when I found out." she admitted.
Ninenine and Tachiko stood together, as Ninenine spoke to his partner, "We've hit a snag in our plan."
"You think?" Tachiko asked in sarcasm.
Taking them by surprise the Amalgams dropped in, "Oh, no them too?" Sasuke asked.
"What are those?" Ben asked, as Kevin answered with squinted eyes.
"Amalgams."
"What's going on?" Ninenine asked the five.
"We're pulling out for now." Kidomaru answered.
"Seriously?" Tachiko asked in disbelief.
"You wanna continue to fight all of them?" Tayuya asked.
Tachiko looked at the group of heroes before answering, "Ok, let's go!" he unleashed smoke bombs blinding the heroes, allowing the baddies to escape.
When the smoke cleared the heroes saw their enemies escaped, "They're gone." Hinata gasped.
"Don't worry, Hinata. They'll be back." Armodrillo answered, as he became Naruto again.
When Feedback became Ben again, Gwen, Kevin, and Rook stood at his side, while Naruto friends stood by him.
"Ok, so who are you guys?" Ben asked.
"My name's Naruto Uzumaki, my friends and I are from the future."
"The future?" Gwen asked.
Naruto nodded, and motioned his friends to introduce themselves. Sakura went first, "I'm Sakura Haruno."
"My name's Hinata Hyuga."
"I'm Sasuke Uchiha."
Ben raised a brow, "Your voice sounds familiar."
Sasuke was curious, "Funny, yours does too."
Tenten spoke up, "I'm Tenten."
"Tenten?" Kevin asked recalling the hunters.
"No. I'm not related to that hunter creep." she assured him.
Akane finished, "And my name's Akane. It's nice to meet you all." she smiled.
"What's with the ears and tail?" Ben asked.
Rook spoke up, "I believe she is a Hanyouian from the planet Yokai."
"Yokai?" Ben asked.
"Yes. And much like how the planets in the Anur system are home to alien species that resemble your earth classic monsters from movies, the inhbitants of Yokai resemble Earth myth and folklore creatures."
Gwen realized, "And Akane's breed is like a Japanese fox spirit known as a kitsune."
"That's right." Akane nodded.
"Ok, you obviously know about us, but why are you here?" Gwen asked.
"We can assume it had to do with those guys?" Rook inquired.
"You're right." Sakura confirmed.
"Hold on," Ben spoke up, "Why don't we talk things out over Mr. Smoothy?"
Naruto looked up at the place recalling from Azmuth how it was Ben's fave place to hang out, and fave beverage, "I'm down with that. How about it, guys?"
"Might as well." Sakura answered, as the others agreed.
"Great." Ben said in joy, while Gwen, Kevin, and Rook rolled their eyes.
Meanwhile, Valmark, Orochimaru, Kilotron, Kabuto, Ninenine, Tachiko, and the Sound Amalgams after escaping fled to the sewers where they wandered around.
"How did they follow us here?" Tachiko asked.
"Was this a miscalculation, Dr. Kilotron?" Ninenine inquired.
"I had nothing to do with this." the doctor assured them.
"They must've found their own means of traveling through time as well." Valmark theorized.
"But how did they know to come to this part of time where we ended up in?" Kabuto wondered.
"I do not know, but we must hurry and find who we're looking for." Orochimaru answered, as they treked their way through the sewer.
"How can we find anything down here in the sewer?" Tayuya asked with a grumble.
"The one we're searching for isn't in the sewer itself," Valmark answered, "But where this sewer leads to."
"And that would be?" Sakon asked.
"Undertown." Valmark answered, as the group continued on.
Back at Mr. Smoothy, Ben, his group along with Naruto and his group were sitting down enjoying a smoothy, while Akane was also petting Zed the alien dog.
Ben spoke after sipping some of his smoothy, "So you guys are from the future where ninjas are the dominant people on earth?"
"Uh-huh," Naruto confirmed after took a sip of his smoothy, "Oh, man these are good."
"And you're also Plumbers as well?" Kevin asked.
"Yes, Azmuth from our time helped reopen up the Plumbers bases in the five great nations," Sakura answered, "We're all now working together to protect the planet."
"But your enemies Orochimaru, Kabuto, and those Amalgams came here with Vilgax's Great Grandson..." Gwen began but was cut off by Ben.
"That thought disturbs me."
Gwen continued, "Along with his own minions came to this time in hopes of destroying Ben to help them rewrite your present time."
Hinata nodded, "Yes. That's right."
Rook spoke, "But Paradox brought you all here to help us and bring your enemies back to your own time."
"That about sums it all up." Tenten finished.
"Ok, this is totally strange," Ben said, "Ninjas and aliens. Now there's a combination."
"Well, it's all true." Sasuke assured him.
"And now you possess the Omnitrix, Naruto?" Rook asked.
"You bet. This watch has totally changed my life." Naruto said, as he looked at his Omnitrix.
"That's for sure." Sakura replied.
"Since we now are getting to know each other, would you please help us in catching Valmark, Orochimaru, and the others?" Hinata pleaded.
"Sure, why not?" Kevin answered.
"Really, just like that?" Tenten asked in disbelief.
"You got an Omnitrix, I got an Omnitrix, I think we can trust each other." Ben answered.
"Unless you count those evil alternate versions of yourself, Ben." Rook reminded him.
"Details-details." Ben brushed it off.
"I wouldn't mind helping out. I'd like to know more about this ninja land you're from." Gwen said.
"Thank you." Naruto smiled.
"But I must insist we see Magister Tennyson about this situation." Rook suggested.
"I agree with Rook, Ben." Gwen answered.
"All right. Let's go to Plumbers Headquarters." Ben said, as they got up.
"Ooh, the old Bellwood Plumbers HQ." Akane let out a fan girl squeal.
Kevin groaned, "Worse than girl shrieking."
Meanwhile in the place known as Undertown, the bad guys were walking around the flea market area keeping it casual. As they walked the Sound Amalgams looked around seeing all the different alien species with shops set up.
"What sort of place is this?" Kidomaru asked.
Valmark answered, "Undertown is an underground alien settlement where many kinds of alien species live and thrive below this city. But ever since the aliens started becoming more welcomed above the grounds, this place had mostly become a tourist attraction and market."
"Are you sure you even know where you're going?" Tachiko asked.
"Of course I do. Now come on." Valmark said, as they pressed on into a deeper part of Undertown.
They happened across a construction area, but they stopped and his behind some pipes, as Valmark whispered, "Over there."
They looked over and saw some robotic drones loading some stuff into a ship and supervising the operation was Vilgax himself.
"So that's really him?" Orochimaru inquired.
"Lord Vilgax?" Kabuto asked.
"Yes. My great grandfather." Valmark confirmed.
"Well then let's go." Orochimaru suggested.
Valmark nodded, as the two approached casually, while Kilotron, Kabuto, and the others remained behind for the time being.
The two got close enough to the Vilgaxian warlord, as Orochimaru spoke up, "Lord Vilgax, I presume?"
Vilgax hearing his name called, spun around and saw the two, "Who are you?"
"I am Lord Orochimaru, and here with me is Lord Valmark."
Valmark added, "Better known as your great grandson." Vilgax's eyes widened in surprise and confusion at what this younger Vilgaxian had just told him.
(And there's the chapter. The good guys had their meet and greet, and now Valmark and Orochimaru are aiming towards an alliance with Vilgax. Don't miss next time.)
