"Talking!"

'Thinking!'

"Demon!"

Two Sides One Coin

The cries of pain as a woman pushes out a crying baby girl. The newborn was taken and cleaned. The pregnant starts to scream again pushing out another baby girl. Baby after baby was born with all of them being born a girl.

"My Queen, all of your babies are health and all are girls," the doctor told her queen

"That's…" trying to regain her breath from childbirth, "Good. That's good," she stands up and the handmaidens place a rob on her and doesn't even bother to close the rob, "What of the Oracle?"

"The Oracle has said that your daughters will fight against a male Amazon from Themyscira,"

"Really now?" the queen says with surprise, "It seems that my aunt has let a boy to be born,"

"No, My Queen, the Oracle said that the boy is off Themyscira,"

"Off Themyscira? I must see the Oracle," the queen stops to look at her seven daughters as they all quietly sleep, "My daughters," is all the queen said before leaving.

Walking outside into the desert with the hot sun shinning down onto the kingdom that's hidden from the world. Just like the Amazons of Themyscira the Amazons of Bana-Mighdall are some of the greatest warriors in the world. These Amazons unlike their Sister Tribe are more ruthless, stronger, and far more dangerous. While the Themyscira Amazons raid ships to take what they want; the Bana-Mighdall Amazons raid nearby towns to have children, but have a relationship to protect them if bandits or other governments decide to attack them. The queen made her way to a temple that is built into the side of a cliff side. It is a work of wonder. Inside the temple has several different statues with a giant fire in the middle of the temple.

Walking inside to see the Oracle is waiting for the queen, "My Queen, I thought you would be with your children?" asked the Oracle

"I will be, but I heard from my handmaiden that you had vision, correct?"

"Yes, My Queen," the Oracle grabs a hand full of powder and walks over to the giant fire which then she tossed the powder into the flames, "It seems Themyscira has written its end."

The fire roars as the flames open up a mirror. The Queen watches as the Amazons fight against a woman with red hair. How she killed her former sisters while protecting her son. While the Amazons of Bana-Mighdall don't like men and will only lay with a man to have a child; they don't go out of their way to kill a child just because he was born a boy. The Queen has to say that the red haired Amazon shows great skill with her butchering the Amazons like they are nothing. Then she saw how she protected her son with her very body and jumped from a cliff into the waters below.

"So this is the child that will fight my daughters?" she asked the Oracle, "How will the fight turn out?"

"I…" hesitates but tells her the grim truth, "All, but one dies at his hands,"

With centuries of experience to keep her anger at bay, "Why are they killed?"

"You… You sent them to fight and bring him here so that our Sisters may use him to give us strong daughters. Your daughters fail as he is too strong,"

"So he learns how to fight and become a great warrior?"

"He fights in a war that divides a country," Liberian Civil War, "Fight against the cold weather of the north," the Alaskan Frontier, "Beaten by an agent of darkness," tortured by David Cain, "Wears a red x to fool up and coming champions," becoming Red X and tricked them, "Meet with Death itself," meeting and becoming friends with Didi, "Welcomes the world's darkness," entering the underworld for the Senju Clan, "Fighting and killing a master assassin," killing David Cain, "And defeating his master," winning against Slade Wilson and becoming the new Deathstroke, "The boy becomes one of the greatest fighting in the world, and knows how to use it to win fights that he shouldn't win against people that are better then him,"

"If my daughters are to fight him, then they need some of the best training that our fellow Sisters can give to them; don't you say?"

"Yes, My Queen!" the Oracle bows her head.

The queen leaves the temple and makes her way back to her children. Standing and marching is Queen Phthia, daughter to Queen Antiope, niece to Queen Hippolyta Amazon of Themyscira, and cousin to Diana Princess of the Amazons of Themyscira.

Phthia looks and stares at her seven daughters Hypsiple, Anaya, Penthiselea, Atalanta, Dalma, Tender, Exoristos. All seven of her daughters that will be trained to be the very best Amazons that the Bana-Mighdall has or will ever seen.

"My daughters will be my sword, my spear, my shield, and finally you will be the future." Phthia told her daughters.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Years went by with the training for the daughters of Phthia. Hypsiple being the oldest trained the hardest as she is to become queen if should anything were to happen to their mother. She learned how to use her sisters and command them to fight together. They fought some of the strongest Amazons that Bana-Mighdall had.

A large Amazon hits both Anaya and Dalma away and force them into a wall. Atalanta jumps on the large Amazon, but was quickly grabbed and thrown onto her sisters. Hypsiple saw that her sisters are being hurt leap to kneed the large Amazon, swings her body over and grabs the large Amazon's head to bring her down.

"Excellent, Hypsiple. You are making out to be a fine leader for your sisters,"

Kneeling to her mother, "Thank you, Mother. I must protect me Sisters at all cost; be they be blood or figuratively,"

Smiling at her eldest daughter, "You make a fine queen someday and your husband will be by your side,"

"Mother, why must I take a husband if we just take what we want?" Hypsiple

Smiling at how her daughter thought, "You know that our customs make it so that we take what we want from Man's World, but this man is different. He is an Amazon born from out Sister Tribe,"

"I don't understand, Mother,"

"Give it time and you'll understand." Phthia tells her eldest daughter.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

The Daughters of Phthia watch a live image of Naruto with a use of a combination of magic and technology fighting in the Liberian Civil War. Naruto running across a field with mortar shells crashing all around him. The sound of the shells falling with a sound that given enough times a solider will know to take cover, the thundering explosion of said shell causing dirt, plants, body parts, and anything caught in the blast radius. Naruto ran through mortar fire before to know to keep moving, to always move.

Taking cover behind a destroyed jeep Naruto takes the magazine out of his AK-47 to see that it is full and reloads it. The Golden Devil runs out behind from the destroyed jeep. Running and diving over sandbags with those firing the mortars are killed without remorse. Children came running shortly afterward to take the mortars.

"My daughters, can you tell me what the male Amazon did?" Phthia asked her daughters

"He ran across a field of explosions with no fear," Dalma answered

"Good answer. Showing fear is a two prong emotion. While a warrior doesn't want fear; fear also shows that you are still alive,"

"Mother, I thought fear was a bad thing," Tender said

"It depends. Fear can be used to made the enemy lose all hope of winning in a battle, but fear can also be used as a weapon. Fear can be a double edge sword. This male Amazon learned that and uses it as they fear him as the Golden Devil,"

"He does has very nice hair," Hypsiple commented on

"When a warrior fights on the battlefield are called that stands out about them. Learn, and become strong from these lessons." Phthia said to her daughters.

Phthia's daughters learn and grow stronger over the years to fight and defeat Naruto. Learning everything that they can about him so that they have any advantage to win for when their great battle.

-Aokigahara-

Naruto and Jiraiya stand outside of the treeline before Aokigahara. Jiraiya told that the spirits in the forest feed off the negative emotions from anyone who steps foot into the forest. This is the perfect place as to why Naruto attacked Wonder Woman a few days ago. The spirits will drive what drove him to do something that he himself said he wouldn't do, but did anyway.

"Are you sure this is the only way?" Naruto asked the old sage

"Of course! I mean there are other places in the world that can do this, but this place you already know; better to go with a place that you know, right?"

"I guess," saying with uncertainly, "So I go in and the spirits will attack me because of my negative emotions, correct?"

"That's correct, but you won't be able to leave til you conquer your darkness,"

"And if I don't?"

Inhales then exhales, "Then you don't exist anymore," Naruto gives Jiraiya a strange look, "Like what I'd said. The spirits of Aokigahara will make everyone in the whole world forget about you; as if you'd never existed in the first place. Naruto, I'm saying this as a sage that this place will show you things that you don't want to see, make you hear things that you don't want to here. Aokigahara isn't called the Forest of Suicide just for show,"

"Just like everything else then," taking a few steps forward, "The world has been out to get me even before I was born; nothing new. What if I don't find what made me do what I did?"

"Oh, you'll find it. You'll find it and you may not like it, Naruto," looking at the forest, "You must understand that this isn't for the lighthearted. I know that you've trained with the best in the world and have been through stuff that most people wouldn't be able to walk out of in one piece; this is different. The spirits won't just attack you negative emotion, they'll attack your very being,"

"They'll attack what makes me me, I get it. I do. It'll take everything that I have for this trial,"

"Good! Now you can't have anything on you, but your clothes. Oh, and no shoes,"

"Really?" raise an eyebrow at that, "Why no shoes?"

"It's summer so you don't have to worry about that,"

"Fine!" Naruto takes out his wallet, keys, knife, 1911, and takes off his socks and shoes and gives them to Jiraiya, "So I just walk in and what?"

"Just walk in and the spirits will do all the work." Jiraiya tells Naruto.

Sighing at what he is about to do walks forward, but stops right in front of the treeline. Taking a look back at Jiraiya to see him waving for the blonde to go inside. Naruto takes a step forward and just as fast as he placed his foot down; he notice that something was off. Turning back to look at Jiraiya once more, but to only see no one there.

"Jiraiya?" but no one answered, "What the hell?"

-Bana-Mighdall-

"The time is now!" the Daughters of Phthia check their armor, "The time is here!" checking their weapons, "You've all been training for this!" each of the daughter place a mask over their faces, "Go forth!" they all run out of the temple and out of Bana-Mighdall, "Go and fight the male Amazon, Naruto Uzumaki!"

The time has come for the Daughters of Phthia to fight the one that they have been training to fight against for years now. They've learned anything and everything they could find about Naruto Uzumaki so that they could fight and defeat him. It is their duty, their right.

-Aokigahara-

Naruto walks through the thick, dense, untouched forest of Aokigahara. Ever since Naruto took his first step into the Suicide Forest it seemed off. Like there is something watching him. Stopping to look to his left, then to his right; nothing.

'Why do I feel like something is watching me?' Naruto thought to himself.

Naruto notice something that he should of notice sooner. It was quiet. Too quiet. There is no sound which shouldn't be possible. Being in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of nature there is always sound. Nature isn't quiet. There is no birds chirping, no deer walking around, no bugs making noise. The only thing that is making any type of noise is the wind moving the tree branches and running water from a nearby stream.

'Is this the forest doing?' looking around trying to see anything, 'What the hell?'

Turning to face himself. His single eye widen at himself standing in front of him. The most noticeable thing is the Naruto standing in front of him has both of his eyes.

"What do we have here?" the other Naruto says, "Why did you come here?"

"What are you?"

"Why I'm you! What else can I be?"

"A spirit of the forest? A ghost to show that I'm finally going mad?"

Smirking at his other, "You may call me Yami. I am the darkness that is inside you," Yami walks over to lean on a tree, "Again; why are you here?"

"Figured you'd don't want me here. You are me, so you should know what I want,"

"Of course I know. I just wanted to hear the words come straight out of your mouth,"

"Why did I attack Wonder Woman?"

"That's simple!" Yami raises both of his hands up, "You are the nature of war!" Naruto gives Yami a strange look, "Why don't you come out?" Yami called out.

Stepping out from behind a tree is Ares, the God of War for the Greek Gods. Though the thing that caught his eye is that Ares is not wearing armor. He's wearing a tan suit, barefooted with blood soaked pants legs, and a long white beard.

"Well, what do we have here?" War says, "My other student,"

"What the fuck is going on!?" Naruto demands, "Other student? Student? You never taught me shit!"

"You have a mouth on you. To make things easy to understand I had two students. You and another. You should know the other student; because you will fight her with a drive to see who's better,"

"Diana…." mutters Naruto

"Correct. I decided to have two students. One student that was taught by me as a form of nurture; and you were taught without a teacher as a form of nature. I wanted to see who was stronger; nature or nurture,"

"Fuck you, Ares! Is this just a game to you!?" growled out Naruto, "You bastard!"

"Unlike the Amazons you don't hold back. Is it because how the strong live and the weak die? But I can't say anymore as you have guests to fight."

Ares steps behind a tree and disappears. Naruto looks over to Yami just for him to be gone. Growling at the thought that a god caused him to act the way he did. Turning around to see seven women walk towards him.

"Who the hell are you?" Naruto asked the seven women

"We are the Daughters of Phthia. We came here fight and defeat you, Naruto Uzumaki. We are the Amazons of Bana-Mighdall," Hypsiple told the blonde

"Amazons," never heard of the Amazons of Bana-Mighdall, "I never heard of you. Are you related to the Amazons of Themyscira?"

"We will not answer any of your questions, male!" Penthiselea yelled out.

Seeing each of the Bana-Mighdall Amazon take out a different weapon, ready for combat. Penthiselea was the first one to act by charging Naruto. It was like Liberia all over again. No weapon. No equipment. Nothing. Naruto kicked Penthiselea's sword up out of her hands, kneed her in the stomach, and runs away from the Bana-Mighdall Amazons.

'I can't fight them like this. Can't fight them all at once!'

Running, jumping and, dodging arrows being shot at him. Exoristos who is the fastest caught up to Naruto to thrust her spear at the blonde's back. Leaning to the side for only the blade to cut his shirt. A whip wraps around Naruto's right arm and the force from it caused Naruto to hit the ground. Looking over just to see Anaya holding and pulling the whip towards her. Kicking off the ground to pull Anaya with him as he lands on a tree branch. Naruto grabs the whip and drops down to swing over and kicks Anaya forcing her to let go of the whip. Naruto lands in a kneeling position before slowly standing up.

"Why are you fighting?" Yami asked, "Let them kill you."

Ignoring Yami as he stares at the Bana-Mighdall Amazons. He can tell the difference between the Amazons. They are stronger then the ones on Themyscira. It shows that they don't waste their movements and that everything they use is to a means of the end. All of them work in perfect order.

'This is going to be difficult. That's for sure.'

Cracking the whip to whip it around at Anaya, but training with said weapon for years made it easy to regain her stolen weapon. Exoristos leap in front on Naruto with her spear inches away from his heart. Kicking the spear up to drop down and quickly to bring up his knee to buried in her stomach. Jumping away from a sword swing to run away from the Daughters of Phthia once more.

-Coney Island-

Harley sighs as she walks out of her bathroom. A nice hot long bath does it wonders after a long day. Running around collecting rent, getting the hot water heater working again, going to work and listen to all her patients, then having a roller derby match it can be tiring.

"Harley," said woman screams as Batman scared her, "We have to talk,"

"What the fuck are you doing here!?" Harley walks over to her dresser, "Turn around so that I can get dress!" Batman turns around, "Why are you here?"

"I came here to talk about the Joker. You killed him,"

"So what?" putting on a pair of pants to finish getting dress, "I moved on and now I can be a peace finally,"

"Yes, but if I wanted to I could have the police here to arrest you for murder,"

"And go back to jail," Harley stares out the window, "So are you?"

"No, I know that should anyone kill the Joker it should have been you. I have been keeping an eye on you to make sure that you don't do anything. And while you did some crazy things, you did it to help people,"

"I'm hearing a but coming, and not in a good way,"

Ignoring Harley's comment, "I have here is an anklet that will track your movements. I'm not taking you in, but I will be keeping a closer eye on you," Batman walks over and opens the window, "You don't know what Deathstroke is doing, correct?" not using Deathstroke's real name

Harley caught what Batman said since it was kind of easy, "No, Deathstroke likes to keep secrets. Now that you are done here; get out!"

"One more thing; that woman that was following the Joker. Why didn't you save her?"

"There was no helping her. Yes, I followed the Joker and did everything he said, but I did it because I was seduced by the madness. I followed the madness because there was a madness deep down inside me. That woman; the one that followed the Joker didn't have that. She followed him because she thought she could be better then I am. Be a better Harley Quinn. She didn't have a choice because she didn't want a choice,"

Harley turned with Batman gone. She picks up the anklet and just sighs before sitting on her bed. Harley knew that this would happen with her coming out of hiding and taking action. Though the crazy blonde thought she would be back in Arkham.

-Flashback-

"You do realize that if you come out and fight the Joker you may wined back in Arkham?" Naruto told Harley

"I know this. This is my decision. I know what I'm doing," Harley stated, "This is something that I have to do,"

"I know you do. I just don't want you to go back to Arkham, Har,"

"Naru, there is something that I have wanted to say for sometime,"

"Sure what…" Naruto didn't get to finish what he was saying as Harley grabs his face and shoved her lips onto his.

This is what Naruto wanted. This is what Harley wanted. A way to finally show their feelings. For months both Naruto and Harley have been trying to find some way to let the other know that they felt something. Stepping back to look into Naruto's lone eye Harley can see that her fellow blonde cares for her. Reaching up to remove his eye patch to see that the eye isn't there.

"I always wanted to see both of your eyes,"

"Sorry that I don't. I don't like how the glass eye feels in my eye socket; and I never could find the right shade of blue,"

"Mmm, you do have the prettiest blue eye that I have seen. Light like the sky or dark like the ocean. I can't make up my mind which one I like better."

Harley learns up to kiss Naruto again. Running her fingers through his hair. Holding onto him as if life is hanging on a thin string. Breaking from the kiss slowly to take it all in, to see that there is a possible future that doesn't involve fighting in life or death battles.

"I made up my mind about what I'm going to do. If I go back to Arkham then so be it." Harley tells Naruto before she grabs him and throws said blonde onto her bed, "Now it's time for the fun!"

-Flashback End-

So much fun before Naruto left for Japan. The stamina was something else. Harley put the anklet on her right ankle and a green light turns on. She looks at it and is going to paint it from black to red and blue that's for sure. What's done is done. There is nothing she can do about it now for sure knew what she was getting into. At lease she's not back in Arkham.

-Singapore-

"Oh, my god," a woman says while looking at the night sky

"Yes?" says a man in a fine three piece suit

"How did you get this room?"

"My job calls for me to be on top of the world,"

"What is it you do?"

"Hmm, I guess you could say I'm the sun of a king," Apollo making a horrible pun while pour three glasses of Chaplin

"So you'll be kind someday?"

"Not a bad idea, Blue eyes," saying to the blond woman with clear blue eyes, "Truth be told, my father; he appreciates faithfulness, but…"

"He ain't that kind of guy," says the brunette

"Insightful. I knew from the first moment I laid eyes on you. And no, he isn't. My father… gets around. Pisses his wife off to no end,"

"His wife… not your mother?"

"Like I said, he gets around. And where he's gotten to now, I need to find out. See, he's missing," rolling up his sleeves, "The view; it's spectacular, no? The tallest building in the world,"

"It's like we can see for miles,"

"Miles?" Apollo place his hands on all three of the woman causing them float up with their heels coming off and dropping their glasses, "Why, my beautiful girls you can see forever."

-Virginia, United States-

Hera appears in a barn wearing her peacock cloak and nothing else. She walks through the barn dropping bow, arrows, a mace, a sword, and a dagger. The goddess pets the white horse before walking over to a scythe and takes it. Running her finger over the blade which cut her finger and coated it with her blood. The blade glows brightly before swinging it down onto the white horse, cutting its head off. Hera swings the scythe again cutting off the brown horse's head off. A bloody hand rises out of the body of the dead horse before pulling a body out of the horse's body.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

In another part of Virginia that is in the middle of nowhere sits a house. Inside the house a woman wakes up rolls out of the bed to grab a shotgun and rushes into her livingroom to find a man standing there with bird feet and wings on his ankles. He looks through the currents.

"No, Zola, we must leave; now!"

Holding up the shotgun to the man who is Hermes, "We? Make that you, mister. I don't know how you got in here-"

"Listen to me, girl! They've come for you and your child!"

"Who?" questioned as no one should know that she is carrying a child since she just found out a few days ago

"Assassins. If we don't-"

"GET OUT OF ME HOUSE!" the woman shouts out

"You will die here!" Hermes tries to the woman about the danger she is in.

The sound of heavy hooves thunder across the open air. Hermes shoved the woman out of the way with her yelling out as an arrow going into Hermes's gut. The force behind the arrow forces Hermes to fly back and hit the wall behind him. Griping the arrow only for two centaurs come rushing in with one wielding a sword and the other wielding a mace.

"Zola!" Hermes yelled out the woman's name as he throws a key to her who caught it.

-London, England-

Zola appears in a loft in the middle of the night. She doesn't know what happened. One moment she was in her house fixing to die by a centaur, then the next she appears in from different place. Looking around she can make out a woman sleeping on a bed. Zola walks over to the bed to wake her only for Diana to grab Zola by the throat.

"What do you think you're doing?" demands Diana

"I… Monsters they were gonna kill me. Are you?"

"I… No, I'm not," Diana lets go the pregnant woman

Rubbing her sore throat, "These things, they were… Oh God! And a man with eyes, he was in my home and…"

"How did you get in here?"

"The man threw me a key," showing the Amazon Princess the Key of Hermes

"You're going to have to give me that,"

"NO!" cling to the Key of Hermes's

"What's your name?" Diana asked

"Zola,"

"Zola, my name is Diana," walks over to a cabinet, "I want to help you," dropping the sheet showing that she slept in the nude, "And I can take that key right out of your hand, but I'd prefer if you gave it to me willingly," opens the cabinet revealing her armor and weapons inside

"I'm afraid," Zola looks down

"You probably should be,"

"I'm not feelin' what you're say… you're… Wonder Woman?" completely shocked to learn the woman in front of her is one of the world's greatest heroes

"Diana," telling her true name, "And you're safe here. I give you my word. Now give me the key," Zola holds out the Key of Hermes as the Amazon reaches out to grabs it, but Zola grabs Wonder Woman's wrist and closed her hand teleporting them back to Zola's home.

-Virginia, United States-

"Well, that was stupid,"

"Yeah? There's no way I was gonna be left-"

"I meant of me!" clearly not liking how everything is tuning everything out as a scream comes from Zola's house, "Stay close."

Slowly walking towards Zola's house with how quiet everything is. It feels like a trap. An arrow flies out of open door aiming or the pregnant woman. Wonder Woman blocked the arrow with her bracelets, but was surprised by the force behind it which forced her to the ground.

"You want us," speaking as one

"To tell you," speaking as one

"What we see?" speaking as one

"Dear lades, you are my oracles, my eyes that gaze on what is yet to be," two centaurs charge out towards the two women, "Please tell me," the brown centaur reaches Wonder Woman with his hooves up for them to come down onto the downed Amazon though she rolls out of the way, "What you see,"

"There is a storm gathering," the white centaur chases after Zola

"Just beyond the horizon," smirking darkly Wonder Woman rolls onto her back and spring up wrapping her legs around the brown centaur to head butt said centaur

"And the one responsible," speaking as one

"Shall rule in fire," speaking as one

"Sorry about that," speaking as one

"Who is it?" questioned Apollo

"To much smoke," speaking as one

"What?" clearly not liking how even his oracles can't see what is to come

"We can't see clearly," speaking as one

"It wears a crown of horns," speaking as one

"And a cape of blood, flowing from its shoulder," the head butt caused the centaur to drop his sword for Wonder Woman to grab it

"Onto a named woman, at its feet," the white centaur grabbed Zola's shirt and continue to run

"The feet?" asked Apollo

"They're bare, like the woman," speaking as one

"Then it is my family," the God of the Sun states

"Your family," Wonder Woman throws the sword through the air cutting off the white centaur's arm that had Zola

"Is broken," dropping Zola to runaway with the brown centaur who also ran

"Beaten," speaking as one

"And betrayed," speaking as one

"By blood," speaking as one

"Tell me something I don't know," as the god himself saw how his family acted

"Well, your father has abandoned fate," speaking as one

"To someone who can blow away the smoke," speaking as one

"If they choose to," speaking as one

"Seriously, this is mental," speaking as one

"What do you mean by that?" asked Apollo

"We mean that what your father wants is nothing anyone should,"

"It's dirt, it's irredeemable," speaking as one

"And it won't end good for you," speaking as one

Wonder Woman's lasso wraps around Zola and with a strong tugged her over to the Amazon with her landing on her back, "I thought I told you to stay close,"

"I will next time," taking Diana's hand, "I swear,"

"AMAZON!" Hermes yelled out as he is standing at the front door with the arrow still in his stomach, "You shouldn't be here… Take the girl and run to the ends of the Earth," grabs the arrow with both hands, "Protect her," pulls the arrow out making the wound bigger, "Or the Queen will see her dead,"

"Hermes?" Diana run towards the Messenger of the Gods

"Diana," losing strength in his legs "My leg… It's numb and heavy," a bleeding ankle will do that with Diana helps Hermes to the floor, "What did they do to me?"

"The impossible,"

"Heh… That must have gone the way of the pantheon. Failure… What a horrifying end to an endless life,"

Placing her hand over the wound to stop the bleeding, "You're not dying, Hermes!"

"Forgive me… I don't know what it is I am doing, then," Zola takes her shotgun to look around to see if there is anyone else," Zola… Her life is important,"

Looking over her shoulder, "That's one thing my life isn't! Meaning you're wrong! You said those things were here to kill me and my child; well, I don't have one!"

"Girl… You are pregnant,"

"She is?" Diana asked as Zola is taken back by this

"By Zeus," Hermes answers back

"Oh, shit!" Zola just says.

-Singapore-

"Eeee!" speaking as one

"Will kill!" speaking as one

"One of you!" speaking as one

"One of me?" Apollo asked himself as he is floating behind his floating oracles

"Yeah. One of your father's/ children will murder another and take their place," speaking as one

"It's what your father wants," speaking as one

"That's so screwed up," speaking as one

The sun is slowly rising over the horizon, "Pulling the strings, the curtains; legs," Apollo's body gains an orange glow as steam starts to come off his body, "Where is he?"

"He," speaking as one

"Doesn't exist," speaking as one

"Yet," speaking as one

"Yet?" Apollo's body becomes like the sun burning his oracles bodies to dust, "Fascinating." taking off into the skies with the sun rising.

-Mount Olympus-

"NO! No! No! No! This won't do!" yells out Hera as she looks in the pool to see Wonder Woman holding Hermes

"What is it, Mother? You sound… distressed," Strife asks her mother with a bottle of wine in her hand.

Hera watched Hermes being attacked by the centaurs she sent to kill Zola. What she didn't expect was for Hermes to give Zola his key to teleport to Wonder Woman and have them come back to defeat the centaurs.

"Ha! A thing you're never far from, eh, child?" Hera clearly doesn't want to hear her daughter's voice right now

"Mother, please. I just thought you might need some love,"

"Love? You have no idea what I need," taking off her peacock cloak and walks behind a pair of veils

"Really? You think you're that different from anyone else?"

"Of course I do I'm the-"

"Queen?" Strife cuts in, "A word. Burdened with expectations; perhaps that's why Father needs his dalliances, no?"

"I am your father's wife," putting a top on

"Yet these are these flings, these women and their offspring… Constant reminders as to how unloved you are,"

Hera takes Strife's bottle and drinks from it, "That damnable schemer Hermes has enlisted the Amazon to protect your father's latest bastard,"

Strife follows her mother to her throne, "Mother,"

"Now there's a word," sits down on her throne that is made out of gold and green emeralds along the edges with Strife sitting on the armrest

"Let me help you, perhaps if I spoke with my Brother…

"Hermes? You'll fine his forked tongue occupied licking his wound,"

"Oh. You mean business,"

"There is a price to laying down with my husband,"" looking away as a frown marries her face

"Which no one knows better than you, hmm?" smiling at how her mother not only target the women who slept with her husband, but the children too, "Where are they now?"

"The cockless coop, improperly named," sighing as she pets her pet peacock, "I need my Champion, but I can't see him. Something is blocking from seeing him. What are you doing?"

-Aokigahara-

Breathing heavy as the cold air sets in. Been running for hours now with the Daughters of Phthia chasing, following, fighting to get his blood. They hunt him like a pack of wolves that haven't eaten for days. Naruto is sitting underneath a fallen tree trying to stay warm as the temperature drops.

"This isn't good. They know how I fight,"

"Why do you fight? Why do you continue?"

"Why?" looking at Yami, "Because I must. I must continue because that is what I have to do,"

"Why? Do you even know? Because you've been running from battle to battle looking for answers! You have nowhere to go!"

"Of course I do!" yelled at Yami, "I know what I must do!"

"Do you? And what is that? Because you say you want to fight the Amazons for what they did to your mother, but then say you don't want revenge, then you turn around and want revenge; face it, you can't make up your mind,"

"Ares did it," Naruto tries to claim

"Is that?" smirking, "You don't know, do you? You don't know because you don't want to know. We could end it,"

"No…"

"End it. End this pain. End this suffering. We both know that we shouldn't have even existed,"

Clapping his hand over his ears to trying and cancel out Yami's words, "That's not true!"

"But it is!" getting closer, "If we didn't exist, then Mommy would still be alive. Her death was because we existed. WE KILLED HER!"

"NO, IT'S NOT!" Naruto bursts out of his hiding spot and took off running.

He doesn't want to think about it. The blonde runs through the forest and keeps running til he stops to see a sight for sore eyes. In front of him is ruins of an old castle from the Sengoku period. From what Naruto remembers Jiraiya said that no one would go nowhere near Aokigahara because of the ghost stories. To see a castle here says something else.

"What's a castle doing here? Is this the forest doing?" asking himself.

Not wanting to get caught he runs into the castle. Nature has taken the castle back showing its age. Watching his steps as the wood cracks and groans from his weight as it shows the woods age. Skeletons lay everywhere with arrows through the armor, swords in their bodies, and severed limbs. A battle took place here and everyone was here lose the fight. Walking into where the lord would sit to meet with guest, his generals, and servants. Sitting at the throne rests a sword, a sword that hasn't been touched in hundred of years.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

The Daughters of Phthia land from the tree to set their sights on the castle. Moving without saying word that they have used for years. Running down the hallways and corridors. Passing a tree that has grown in one of the rooms, a pond that has flooded some of the lower parts from a nearby river, or the ceiling that has fallen in. each of the Daughters of Phthia look at each other and silently nods their heads before they each disappear into the shadows.

The silence echoes through the empty hallways and corridors. Time passes with each second becoming longer and longer. Naruto moves the floor mat to stands up holding onto the sword. Using the training that he received years ago by Lady Shiva.

"My, you must be working overtime, sonny," O-Sensei spoke up

"Not you now," whispers out Naruto

Chucking at the blonde, "You always saw the world for what is was, and not what it is,"

"Why are you here, O-Sensei? I figured you be spending time with your wife after so many years,"

"Oh, I have," smiling at last of being with his wife after so many years, "But I wanted to see my old student, can't an old master do that?"

"No one can stop you," mutters the blonde, "Are you here to tell me how I need to die?"

"No, no, my boy! Do you know when I first say you, you had the look of a wild animal that wanted to devour everything in sight. I wanted to train you to fight and defeat that wild animal; that wild fox,"

"So I'm a wild fox now?"

"You were! But now you're a warrior that's seen hell and back; you have seen the abyss and didn't blink. No, my boy, you have much ahead of you. Death wants to see how you take on the challenges that have yet to come,"

"Are you so sure about that? I just bring death everywhere I go,"

"My boy, death comes for us all; no matter who we are. I thought you knew this,"

"I do, but the thought that I could of caused my mother's death…"

"My boy, there things that are at play that would of let her death happen anyway. You can't stop it. It's fate that she died. Her death and all those that came after is just the beginning and much more to come,"

"How much more?"

"Oh, there is so much to come, but first you must over come this. You have so much to live for,"

"Why live? You bring nothing, but pain for everyone around you. You know this, I know this, everyone knows this," Yami tries to bring his other down

"Shut up…!" mutters Naruto

"Continue on for you daughter and son," fighting for control

"End it here, and now," fight for death

"Shut up…!" Naruto says a bit louder

"Live another day," trying to making Naruto to see the light

"End it now!" trying to make him see that he's a poison to everyone around him

"Live!"

"End it!"

"Live!"

"End it!"

"SHUT UP!" shouted out the blonde.

The Daughters of Phthia move out of the hiding positions. Growling as the anger burns and boils deep inside. A breaking point to reach and shatters it. Griping the hilt to make a quickly draw as Exoristos being the fastest of her sisters was the first one. She thrust her spear at Naruto, but he draws his sword with speed that make any speedster have any trouble to dodge; Exoristor leans back and barely dodges with the blade cutting her hair.

Naruto kicks Exoristos in the chest which she flies back and crashes through a wall. Walking and stepping over the broken wall to hold the blade of her throat, "Walk the path of a warrior and welcome death."

Exoristos swings her spear upward to try and hit Naruto's balls. Jumping back quickly to only feel the wind created from the swing followed by another thrust. Dodging and hitting the spear so it wouldn't get any closer and making sure that Exoristos stay on the floor. Growing more and more angrier at being on the defensive makes a mistake by sitting up at the wrong time as Naruto's sword cuts her throat. Blood sprays all over the walls, ceiling, floor, and onto Naruto himself.

"What will you do now? You killed one, the others will want your head,"

Growling at Yami, "Then let them come. They walk this path; death will welcome them," walking into the shadows and disappearing.

The six Daughters of Phthia stand around their dead sister. Her throat has been cut with took much blood loss. They all knew death would come for them, but it was still hard to see someone that they grow up with for years to be dead now. For someone of their own blood lying there in a pool of their own blood.

"Sisters!" Hypsiple spoke out, "We came here to captured our target, but now our target has killed one of us; a sister! This is no longer capture, but to kill our target! Kill the male Amazon! Kill Naruto Uzumaki!"

The remaining daughters run and chance after their prey. Their hunt is no personal.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Silently running down the underground corridors. Avoiding any water puddles, jumping over the roots, staying silent as death. The Daughters of Phthia came into a chamber was several coffins. Splitting up to check each of the coffins. Waiting and watching. Calming his breathing as he the storm of his anger disappears.

'Calm your mind and think how to win this. One down and six to go.' telling himself.

Opening up to sense their negative emotions to feel them closing in on him. Tightening his grip on the hilt and slows his breathing. Circling their prey like a shark with the scent of blood in the waters. Before they could do anything Naruto bursts out of the coffin he was hiding in with his sword swinging at them. Anaya cracks her whip towards Naruto with it wrapping around his right leg. Tender came wielding a cub with metal points and Penthiselea with her sword aiming at his chest.

Cutting the whip, blocks Penthiselea's sword swing, then kicks Tender in the chest forcing her back. Atalanta lands in front of Naruto in a crouch thrusting a pair of daggers. Jumping away for Dalma to throw out her spiked chain, cutting the blonde's side. Hypsiple blocks and breaks Naruto's sword with a pair of sais. Naruto runs away from the Daughters of Phthia once more as they give chase. A game of cat and mouse.

Atalanta being the second fastest after her sister Exoristos caught up with the blonde. She thrusts one dagger into his right side and tries to bring the other dagger into the other, but Naruto turns and thrust his broken sword into Atalanta's stomach. Her eyes widen as the pain was something that she never felt before. The pain became worst as Naruto twists the broken blade and drags it out. Naruto steps back and runs away. Atalanta falls over with blood and her small intestines hanging out before going into shock and dying of blood loss.

Once more the Daughters of Phthia stand around another dead sister. They already have lost one sister, but now they lost another. This is showing that their training isn't enough. The gap between them is too much for they never fought someone who would show no mercy. Sure the training they received show no mercy, but they all stopped at some form of a line.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Groaning as he takes the dagger out of his side and quickly placing his hands on the wound to try and stop the bleeding. These Amazons are showing no mercy now because of the death he cause; with another death they'll come at him even more.

"Just don't stop the bleed. Let the blood flow and end it peacefully," Yami speaks into his ear

"Shut up!" putting more pressure onto the wound, "What are you, suicidal?"

"So that the pain would end. So that people don't have to suffer because of us!"

"You are wrong. People would still suffer. Baruto and Himawari wouldn't have a father if I end it here,"

"Are you even sure they're even yours?"

Staring at Yami with cold uncaring eyes, "I will end you if you ever say that again!"

"Forget about him," O-Sensei, "Think about those that care for you. The people that are waiting for you to return to them. Think about your children,"

"You don't have to tell me that," landing outside and running down stream leaving a trail of blood, "I have people waiting for me and I aim to return," finding a small cave and hides inside.

Using some dead leaves and a few small branch to make a fire for the cold is setting in once again. There shouldn't be cold. Japan is in the middle of one of its hottest summers, and yet Aokigahara is freezing. The spirits must be doing something. Watching the flames dance in different shades of red, orange, and yellow Naruto grabs the stick that he had sitting in the fire and burns his stab wound. Fighting through the pain as the bleeding finally stops though the pain doesn't.

"What are you?" Yami appears on the other side of the fire, "Who are you?"

"Are you Naruto Uzumaki?" O-Sensei appears next to Yami, "Are you Naruto Senju? Deathstroke?"

"You can't be more then one person. No one can be without losing themselves. Who are you?"

"Who are you?"

"I am…" pausing as he thinks it over in his mind, "I choose to be me,"

"That does not answer the question; who are you?"

"Shut up…"

"You have to choose. You can't stay in the middle of the road. You have to choose; who are you?"

Closing his eyes, "I will say this once more and if you both don't shut up," opening his cold uncaring eyes, "I will find someway of making you both disappear forever. I choose to be me; I choose my fate for I see fit! I'm done hearing your questions, your riddles, tired of hearing you whispering lies and poisonous words. I choose who I am; not anyone else! Ares may have said that I will be force to fight Diana, but I planned to fight her anyway. I will fight her on my terms; I will fight the Amazons on my terms! No one can or will force me; I am Naruto Uzumaki, son of Kushina Uzumaki, grandson of Tsunade Senju, apprentice of Slade Wilson, student of Sandra Woosan," standing up and walking outside with snow on the ground, "I make my own fate for if I wasn't suppose to have been born then that means fate doesn't command me."

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Running through the freshly fallen snow the Daughters of Phthia slowly come to a stop. They look around for their target.

"Leave now and I won't follow you to end your lives," Naruto's voice echoes throughout the forest

"We will not! You have killed two of our sisters, and for that you will die here," Hypsiple shouted back

"Then you have made your choice and you deal with the consciences." Naruto spoke out before going silent.

The remaining Daughters of Phthia gather together in a circle covering their backs. Landing on a tree branch and making sure not to knock the snow off. He overlooks the Amazons of Bana-Mighdall. Falling down onto Anaya and snaps her neck, killing her, and disappearing into the snow. Hypsiple throws one of her sai at a tree with the blonde coming out from behind the tree and throwing a carved spear. The spear goes into Penthiselea chest, killing her. Running over to the dead Penthiselea to take her sword. Blocking an overhead swing from Tender's club, jumping out of the way from Dalma's spiked chain, leans out of the way from a thrust from Hypsiple.

Tender comes in low to swing her club up, but the blonde blocks it, grabs it, and takes the club from Tender's hands. Tender didn't get a chance to do anything as her club meets her head as it cracks open. Turning to face the last remaining Daughters of Phthia. He can tell that they have let their Amazonian Rage to take over. Attacking without any plans, without any methods, and no though; just instincts to kill. Dalma tries to wrap Naruto with her spiked chain, but the blonde gets in close to cracks open Dalma's head just like her sister. Hypsiple seeing that all her sisters have been killed by the person they were suppose to captured.

Stepping back, "Curse you! Curse you for killing my sisters! Know that I will remember this, Naruto Uzumaki! I will have my revenge!" Hypsiple runs off leaving Naruto behind.

Jiraiya came back to where he'd last seen Naruto before he disappeared into Aokigahara. It's been a few days and this has him worried as it shouldn't take this long. The old sage was fixing to go ahead when Naruto walks out of the forest covered in blood.

"Naruto, what happened? Did the forest do this to you?" asking a concerned Jiraiya

"No, it wasn't," pausing to gather his thoughts, "The forest is a bitch!" turning to gather the forest the finger, "I was attacked by the Amazons of Bana-Mighdall. They came out of nowhere; at first they wanted to capture me, but that changed when I killed one. They changed their orders showing that they haven't been own missions before,"

"Well, besides how everything went; you did good. The forest let you out so you faced your demons. I won't bother to ask as it's different for everyone. C'mon and let's get you some ramen." Jiraiya pats Naruto on the back as they leave Aokigahara.
