I'm back! And here is the second part of the fight! Enjoy!


Chapter 3: Impossible Odds

The light was fading as the sun slowly crept its way behind the hills, creating new shadows and dark patches around the unlit forest. The wind wailed between the destroyed trees and cracked grounds, bringing dust and debris with it. Slowly, the shadows washed over the larger figure, keeping him from clear view. His two red glowing eyes stared into the smaller boy with much amusement.

"So the rat has finally decided to come out from his hiding? I would have let you lived had you stayed put in your little hole." He chuckled at that, a dark and menacing chuckle. It sent shivers down Naruto's spine.

Swallowing hard, Naruto regained his courage, "Of course I did! Did you think I would let a bully like you go unpunished dattebayo?!" That was probably a foolish thing to say since Naruto did not really believe he stood a chance with this guy. However, he can't just stand by and watch him murder the girl in cold blood in front of him either. He would never forgive himself if he just stood by the side lines and did nothing. He was a shinobi after all, and the shinobi life is far from safe. Danger is a part of everyday life for Naruto. Plus, I won't die to some freak like him here! I still have to become Hokage and bring Sasuke back to the village!

The man's only response to Naruto's taunting was to chuckle again, which turned into full blown laughing. His laughter carrying the same feel of menace with it, it did well to make him feel that much more intimidating.

"What's so funny?"

At Naruto's question, the bigger man slowly stopped his laughing. "You? Punishing me?! Do you even know who you are dealing with?" He seemed highly amused by this.

"No, but I know a bad man when I see one!"

The man chuckled at that and had a smirk on his face. It was getting on Naruto's nerves. His acting like I'm some kind of children that doesn't know his place!

The man's booming voiced snapped Naruto out of his own angry thoughts, "Since you have proven to be quite the entertainment, I will allow you the privilege of hearing my name. Although I should have killed you on the spot for not being able to recognize my glorious figure on sight, I am feeling generous today."

"Oh? Do enlighten me on that."

The man smirked more at that before replying, "I am Darkseid, the ruler of Apocalypse, and the most powerful being in the universe. Be glad, for my name will be the last you ever hear before I destroy you."

Apocalypse? What's that? Thought a confused Naruto. "You are quite full of yourself aren't you?"

That seemed to have ticked the now identified Darkseid off as he fired two beams from his eyes straight at Naruto. Quickly, Naruto used his shadow clone jutsu to create two more copies of him and started to run off in different direction. The sudden appearance of two Naruto seems to have had the intended effect as the two beams shot away at the sides, each going after one of the clones. It only took them a second to reach the clones and upon impact, the clones dispersed into a cloud of smoke.

Darkseid was quiet for a few seconds after that exchange. He seems to be staring intently at the blonde with his red eyes.

That was close! Thought Naruto. This guy is not playing around! I'll have to be more careful.

"Only a hand full of people has ever been able to dodge my omega beams. You might prove to be more of an entertainment than I thought."

"There's more where that came from. I didn't train under ero sennin for the last few years for nothing dattebayo!" To support his words with action, Naruto formed the hand sign for his favourite jutsu, "Kage bushin no jutsu!" smoke erupted in the tiny clearing. When the smoke cleared away, the empty area was filled with hundreds of copies of Naruto. Some on trees, some standing on the ground, some are sticking horizontally to tree barks, all are ready for battle.

"Let's get him dattebayo!" they yelled in unison before jumping down at Darkseid.


A little bit further back from the battlefield, Sakura and Kakashi is moving through the trees expertly, jumping from branch to branch as they try to circle around Darkseid to get into a possible flanking position.

"That idiot! Always jumping into situations without thinking!"

"Calm down Sakura, it's not the first time Naruto has done something like this." Said Kakashi. Although, inside he also felt annoyed by it. A shinobi should never give up the element of surprise and rush into battle unprepared. However, what's done is done. Now, they can only react to the changing situation and come up with a new strategy. Being able to adapt is also a good trait a shinobi should have.

"I know, but it still gets on my nerves." A pause, before she continued, "So what now Kakashi sensei?"

"We will maneuver around the battlefield and come up behind Darkseid. Of course, I do not intend to let Naruto fight him alone, so we will also be jumping in when the opportunity presents itself."

"Hai" came the short reply.

The two continued on with their advance and mentally prepared for battle. The sound of a war cry could be heard in the background.


"Ah!" cried the clones as they charged Darkseid in mass. They all resorted to rasengans for this attack because kunais have proven to be useless. However, as if the display of power was just a show to him, Darkseid remained standing in place with his hands behind his back.

"Eat this!" yelled one of the clones as he slammed his rasengan straight into Darkseid's face. More clones soon followed after the first attack. The clones swarmed Darkseid. With rasengan going off at every part of his body, Darkseid seems to be swallowed in a sea of blue energy. The ground gave away underneath Darkseid's foot under the sheer power of the attacks and a decent sized crater was created. This display of power is quite impressive and would have been more than enough to knock out any other shinobi. However, this is no any other shinobi, this is Darkseid.

After unleashing their attacks, the clones all jumped back and made a circle around the dust cloud that has kicked in. "Yosha! We got him." shouted one of the clones. Other cries of cheers could be heard throughout the ranks of Narutos. However, any more cheering from Naruto's part died down when the smoke clear to reveal a perfectly fine Darkseid standing in the center of the crater, a smirk playing on his lips, taunting Naruto.

"This is the best you got? You disappoint me."

"Shut up!" cold sweat started to drop down Naruto's forehead, "I'm not down with you yet!"

Although Naruto was putting up a strong front, deep down, he wasn't as confident as he appeared to be. He doesn't even look winded at that! This is bad. He is much tougher than I thought. I already used up a lot of chakura from my last attack. I'll have to rethink my strategy. Just then, Naruto caught a glimpse of Kakashi and Sakura hiding in the forest behind Darkseid's back. That's right! I'm not in this alone. I still have Kakashi sensei and Sakura-chan.

Regaining some confidence, the clones once again charged Darkseid in the hopes of creating an opening for Kakashi and Sakura. This time, they carried kunais instead of rasengans to reserve chakura, since it has no effect anyways. This will likely turn into a battle of attrition, I'll have to save as much chakura as possible.

The clones punched, kicked, and sliced. However, despite their best efforts, Darkseid still remained standing still with no apparent injuries.

"I grow tired of your pity little tricks, be gone!" Darkseid clapped his hands together. The resulting shockwave had enough force to send all the clones near him flying backwards and disappear in clouds of smoke. The only clones that was saved from this attack was the ones that remained behind. Not wasting a second, Darkseid's eyes lit up, readying another volley of his omega beams. However, before the attack could be completed, a small paper ball came flying straight into Darkseid's face. Upon impact, it exploded in a cloud of purple smoke. With his vision obstructed, Darkseid cancelled his attack and brought his hands up to cover his face.

Jumping out from the trees came Sakura. She charged straight at Darkseid's back with impressive speed. Not wasting another moment, she delivered a series of chakura infused punches and kicks at Darkseid's exposed back. Although Sakura's strength is nowhere near that of Supergirl's, she did have better training at hand-to-hand combat. Knowing exactly where to strike, Sakura wasted no time in aim for Darkseid's joints and pressure points. Caught off guard by the sudden surprise attack and the force behind the well placed punches, Darkseid stumbled forward before tripping to the ground. With her task complete, Sakura quickly jumped away from Darkseid.

Just as the medical ninja jumped out of the way, a shout could be heard, "Earth style, earth slide jutsu!" Placing both his hands on the ground, Kakashi sent chakura into the earth causing the ground Darkseid current lay on to start moving. Using the slight hill they are currently on, Kakashi was able to send the earth along with Darkseid sliding down towards the bottom of the hill. However, he is not done yet. Forming more signs with blinding speed, Kakashi yelled, "Water style, tsunami jutsu!" As if responding to Kakashi's command, the water from the nearby lake rushed down to meet the foe, uprooting trees and bushes in the way. Soon, the once forest covered hill bottom turned into a new lake.

"Nice save Kakashi sensei and Sakura-chan!" cheered Naruto.

Not paying mind to the compliment, Kakashi ordered back, "Get the girl Naruto, we are getting out of here!"

"Right!" after being reminded of what his original goal was, Naruto rushed to the side of the downed girl. She lay motionlessly face down in the crater. Naruto knelt down next to her and gently flipped her over. With the close proximity the two shared, Naruto was able to get a better look at the girl. She looked even more gorgeous up close. Her sleeping face looked so peaceful and calm. Naruto couldn't help but let a small blush creep onto his face. She's pretty. Shaking his head, Naruto tried to clear his mind. What am I thinking? Now is not the time! Picking her up in his arms, Naruto dashed out of the crater. Naruto smiled a bit when he realized how light the girl felt in his arms. I will save you, I promise.

Wasting no time, the three ninjas dashed across the clearing hoping to make it into the cover of the forest. However, just as they were about to jump into the trees, a large rock came flying towards them at alarming speed. They stopped their advance and jumped back to avoid the rock, which destroy many trees in its landing. Before anyone could figure out what was going on, a figure appeared next to Naruto and sent a punch into his face. Naruto was knocked off his feet and went crashing through tress, dropping the girl in the process.

"Naruto!" cried a surprised Sakura, she ran towards the direction in which the blonde was last seen. The figure that punched him stepped out form the dust cloud and revealed himself to be Darkseid.

"Supergirl is my prey. You will do well to remember not to touch a king's prey!"

So the female is called Supergirl? Interesting, it sounds more like a tittle than a name to me though. Thought Kakashi before turning to address Darkseid, "I'm sorry for my subordinate's rude actions, I'm sure he means well. We do not mean to intrude on your hunt, but as a shinobi of the Hidden Village of the Leaves, I cannot let my teammate be in danger without offering assistance. I hope you can understand." No need to piss the big guy off, if we can talk our way out of this the better.

Darkseid smirked, amused by the white haired man's answer, he will play along with it for a little while, "I suppose you are the leader?"

"Yes." Came the short reply.

"Your actions contradict your words, warrior. Striking from the shadows when I least expect it and with the clear intention of going for the kill."

"…."

"And now when you are left nowhere to run, you resort to talks of peace to try to defuse the situation. It is quite cleaver of you. In certain ways, you remind me of a human that likes to run around in a bat costume. Well played."

"Judging by the smirk on your face, I'll take it as a compliment."

"Oh it is. I find it quite admirable in fact. I'll take great pleasure in destroying you." His eyes once again lit up and two streams of omega beams shot out.

Tracking the incoming attack with his lone Sharingan, Kakashi sprung into action. He dashed into the forest where there is more cover to maneuver around. Jumping from tree to tree and doing sudden turns to try and shake off the omega beams, Kakashi displayed his impressive agility and speed. Circling around, Kakashi made his way back to the clearing with the beam just meters behind. He ran straight for the rock that Darkseid had thrown previously and turned around to face the incoming attack. The three tomes in his Sharingan spun wildly as he tried to track the path of the beams. At the last second, just as Kakashi was about to be hit by the omega beams and turned into a pile of dust, he did a backflip and jumped over the rock. At the sudden loss of its target, the omega beams had no time to change its course as it hit straight on with the rock, melting it into dust. Catching his breath, Kakashi once again turned to face Darkseid, kunai in hand.

"You are the second person in a roll to have dodged my omega beams in one day…" Darkseid does not look too pleased with this new development, "very well, I will bring about your destruction with my own two fists." True to his word, Darkseid dashed towards Kakashi in a single motion, kicking up large amount of dust and debris in the process.

If Darkseid was fast, Kakashi was faster. Using his Sharingan, he was able to see his opponent's movements. Years of training and combat experiences soon kicked in. with his smaller and more agile build he ducked under the punch that was aimed for his face and using the momentum, dashed to the right and spun around to the exposed side of Darkseid. Not wasting this opening, lightening quickly flickered to life in Kakashi's right hand. The sound generated by the attack sounded like the scream of a thousand birds.

"Chidori!" Kakashi yelled before slamming his hand into the exposed rib cage of Darkseid. However, instead of the attack cutting his opponent cleanly in half, Kakashi's hand was stopped by the incredible toughness of Darkseid's skin. As I expected, he is a tough one. Kakashi was forced to cancel the attack when Darkseid's free hand swung in from the other direction. Doing a few back flips in the process, Kakashi distanced himself from Darkseid and his outstretched fist. Don't want to get hit by one of those. It will be the end of me. Cold sweat started rolling down the side of his face. This is just like the training exercise I had with Sakura, but worse. I'll have to do this carefully. He spared the direction in which Sakura went for a second before focusing back on Darkseid. I hope Sakura can get Naruto soon. I won't be able to buy too much time…


In the forest some distance away from the battle:

Running along the path of splintered trees and trail of dust, Sakura dashed towards where Naruto lay on the grassy forest floor. Hang on Naruto, I'm almost there! Putting more chakura in her feet, Sakura doubled her efforts and rushed to Naruto's side. Taking a quick look over, her blonde teammate had a bloodied nose and a few tears in his orange jumpsuit. Not wasting a second, the medical ninja swiftly jumped into action. Laying Naruto straight in a more comfortable position than he was originally in, Sakura began her diagnostic of the extent of his injuries. A broken nose, a dislocated jaw, few broken ribs, and some bruises here and there. Not bad, considering the power behind the punch, but Sakura always knew Naruto was a tough one. Putting her hands on his chest, green glowing chakura soon followed.

Slowly, as the healing has taken its effect, Naruto opened his eyes. "How are you feeling?" came the concerned voice of Sakura.

"Could have been bette-" Naruto was cut short as he coughed up blood.

"Don't talk. You are not completely healed yet. The big guy really did a number on you."

"!" suddenly remembering the events that led him to this situation, Naruto sat up straight, ignoring Sakura's cry of complain and the pain, "Darkseid! What happened?"

"Lie back down before I make you." came Sakura's annoyed reply. Not wanting to be on the receiving end of Sakura's wrath, Naruto complied. Once again, Sakura channelled chakura to her hands to resume the healing, "You were punched by Darkseid and sent crashing here, I came over to get you right away but Kakashi sensei stayed behind to buy us some time." Sakura bit her lips at this. I must hurry. Sensei won't be able to hold on by himself for long.

"Then we must go help him."

"Not until I'm done healing you."

Naruto tightened his fist, "What about the girl I was carrying? Where is she?"

"You dropped her when you were hit. I'm sure she is still in the clearing with Darkseid."

"That bastard!" Naruto gritted his teeth.

"Alright, all done. Although I would have preferred to do some more extensive healing, we do not have the time for that right now. You are not one hundred percent, but it will be enough for you to pull through this fight."

"Thanks Sakura-chan dattebayo!" Naruto flashed her one of his trade mark smiles before getting up. I feel much better now. It's time for some pay back! Together, the two shinobis made their way back to the battlefield.

When they arrived, they were met with a complete makeover of the tiny clearing. Craters of all different sized can be seen here and there. Some pieces of giant rocks and uprooted trees are scattered around the field, adding to the chaos. Near the center stood two figures, one with his hands behind his back and standing up straight, the other was hunched over while taking in laboured breathes.

"You are quite nimble for a human." Commented Darkseid.

Kakashi's only response was to wipe away the blood on his forehead that was starting to fall to his eyes, blocking his vision. I'm almost at my limit.

"You put up a decent fight, so, I will give you a decent death. Prepare yourself!"

Before Darkseid could make a move, he was interrupted by a blonde with smirk on his face. Very loudly, Naruto proclaimed, "Hold it right there! Don't go fighting Kakashi sensei. I'm not done with you yet!"

Taking the chance to retreat back, Kakashi was able to meet up with Sakura. Without a word, Sakura moved in to heal Kakashi's wounds. In the background, the unique sound of a rasengan firing up could be heard.


With Supergirl:

Supergirl slowly opened her eyes. She gazed straight up into the night sky. The moon was shining down on her with the stars dancing and twinkling along with it. Pretty. Supergirl thought. Although she did like the moon, the sun was always more beautiful in her eyes, not just because it was the source of her powers, but also because she felt safe and secure under its warmth. Wait, why am I lying down and staring at the sky? Then the memories hit her like a bullet train. Darkseid! Bring herself up, Supergirl took in her surroundings. She was in some kind of clearing surrounded by forest. It was then that she saw it. A teenaged boy was fighting Darkseid! He had short blonde hair that was spiky and unkempt. Two ocean blue eyes held warmth and determination in them. On each side of his cheeks were three whisker-like marks. That's kind of cute. Thought Supergirl. Shaking her head to focus on the battle, Supergirl was able to see Darkseid readying his omega beams to fire at the blonde in an orange jumpsuit.

Doing the only thing she could think of at the moment, Supergirl used her super speed to move in front of the blonde teenager, shielding him with her body. The omega beams shot out. Supergirl brought her arms up in front of her in an X to better brace for the attack. It hit Supergirl square on. She gritted her teeth under the intensive energy that was making her arms feel numb. Slowly, Supergirl is being pushed back, but she can't give up. Not this time, not when someone else's life was on the line. Through sheer determination and stubbornness, Supergirl stopped the attack. She was pushed back ten meters and left two distinct tracks in the ground where her feet skidded across, her arms where smoking from the intense heat generated by the omega beams.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed?! Get out of here!" Supergirl yelled back at the blonde that was behind her. He looked shocked to see her protecting him from the attack.

"You're awake!"

"Didn't you hear me? I said get out of here! You can't beat him!"

Naruto was a bit taken aback at this comment, "What the hell! I'm trying to help you! I was doing fine before you showed up."

"Now is not the time to be arguing with me. Just get out of here!" Supergirl was beginning to lose her patience with Naruto. However, before Naruto could say something in return, Darkseid had had enough with their little bickering and sent two more omega beams their way.

"Watch out!" Naruto yelled as he pushed Supergirl aside and created multiple clones to stop the omega beams. It worked. However, the resulting shock wave sent them both tumbling backwards.

Surprised at Naruto's sudden display of ability, Supergirl remained on the ground. He has powers too? I guess he's more than just meets the eyes. Recovering quickly, Supergirl hovered up and got into a fighting stance. There is no way I can overpower Darkseid. What can I do? Think Kara Think! A moment of silence passed as the smoke cleared. I got it! Turning to face Naruto, she said, "Hey, do you think you will be able to distract him for a few seconds after I acquire something from him?"

At first, Naruto was surprised at the girl's change of attitude, but a smirk soon found its way onto his lips, "You bet! I'm not called the most unpredictable ninja of Konoha for nothing dattebayo!"

Nodding, Supergirl turned and flew at Darkseid. I hope he can do this. I will never forgive myself if he dies because of me. Clearing her head of bad thoughts, Supergirl focused on her task at hand. She slammed straight into Darkseid's chest in what appeared to be a simple tackle. Darkseid only skidded back a few meters by this attack. It didn't work. However, that was not Supergirl intention. Using the position she was in, Supergirl reached her arm around Darkseid's back and reached for his belt. Got it!

"You think you can bring me down? Foolish girl." Darkseid said before forming a ball with both his hands and smashing it down on Supergirl's exposed back. As intended, Supergirl's body went straight down into the ground, creating a huge crater in the process. However, before he could finish the job, Naruto jumped at him while holding a rasengan in his hand.

"Leave her alone!" Said Naruto as he smashed the rasengan into Darkseid's face and quickly jumped away to avoid the palm that tried to grab him, "How about you come and get me!"

"As you wish." Darkseid simply stated before moving to crush the blonde shinobi.

Using the precious time that Naruto was able to buy her, Supergirl quickly reprogramed the Mother Box. She stood up while clutching the side of her ribcage and pressed the button. A tear through space appeared behind Darkseid a moment later. Noticing the appearance of a Boom Tube, Darkseid stopped his attack on Naruto and turned to face Supergirl. Seeing her holding a Mother Box, his hand went to his belt and felt an empty space. That's my Mother Box! He thought angrily.

"Leave, and never come back!" Supergirl said before firing up her heat vision. The parting gift had enough force to knock Darkseid off his side and into the Boom Tube.

"You!" Eyes lighting up with rage, Darkseid was able to let lose one last omega beam before he was swallowed by the portal. The Beams hit Supergirl, who had no strength left to get out of the way. It sent her flying across the forest before her back came to a crashing halt on the face of a cliff side. Spider web-like cracks could be seen on the surface of the cliff. As the Mother Box was also destroyed in the process, the Boom Tube closed itself, sending Darkseid into the void of space far away. Having depleted almost all of her energy in the fight, and without the sun's rays to recharge her, Supergirl slowly slipped into unconsciousness.


Done and done! I hope you liked this fight and I hope the length was long enough. I know everybody likes long chapters. Let me know. As for the fight, I know that i made Darkseid really OP, but that's how it's supposed to be! He is one of the most powerful characters in the DC universe after all. the reason that team seven and Supergirl "won" this battle is because Darkseid never took them seriously. He only saw them as entertainment, hence he never used his full power. If he did, the fight would have been over in a flash and there would be no more story. LOL. Anyways, next chapter is going to be mainly moving forward the plot and establishing the character. I'll make it fun so don't worry. That's enough from me, i hope you had a fun time reading time. Until next time.

Ja Ne~
