I do not own Naruto or Watchmen

What's up? Truthfully, I was not planning continuing on with this story. But since I'm getting some feedback, I might as well give it one more shot. I'm still considering who will be paired (If any) with Naruto. Don't have much to say since I really want to get to work on that Nauto/Uncharted story. So...HAJIME!

Chapter 2: Vigilante turned father!

Antarctica: Watchmen world

Three figures were standing in an almost empty arctic region aside from a large metal structure on the side.

"You sent him away?" a man asked in a full body brown costume. He was also wearing brown goggles and some sort of hood on his head with pointed ends similar to an owl. Standing next to him was a very beautiful brunette in a rather revealing skin-tight black and yellow costume and black boots, who also had a look of curiosity. In front of them was a half naked glowing blue man. He had white pupil less eyes and was actually floating in mid-air. The half-naked man nodded.

"Yes Dan. We all know how stubborn Rorschach is when it comes to his ideals, and it was either send him to another world or kill him." he answered as he recalled his infamous phrase "never compromise." This was something that needed to be kept a secret.

"Where exactly did you send him?" The woman asked. While he never opened up, Rorschach was still a fellow comrade to the three of them and she was concerned with his well being. The glowing man frowned.

"I was too hasty when it came to choosing so I picked a random universe and teleported him there." At hearing this the man known as Dan scowled.

"Wait, so Rorschach can possibly be somewhere that can instantly kill him? Like a world with no oxygen? Can't we get him back?"

"He might be, thankfully I implanted the knowledge of their language into his brain, that should be enough to aid him in understanding that world. I can still sense his presence somewhere in the ultra-verse so he is still alive. Though I don't think it is a good idea to bring him back. The moment we leave him out of our sight he will escape and reveal to the whole world about Adrian's plan." He replied. The man may have killed millions but he did prevent WW3 by diverting attention to the bomb in New York City. They all agreed to take an oath of silence but Rorschach believed that the world had the right to know what happened. Seeing no other option he was sent away, hence there predicament. Dan scowled even further.

"So? You're Dr. Manhattan for God's sake! Can't you just bring him back and wipe his mind or something?" He angrily questioned.

"Dan, calm down. This won't solve anything and I'm sure he has a good explanation." The woman assured.

"Laurie is right, If I wipe his memory, I'll end up frying his brain. I also can't remove it, I can just make him lose access to it. The moment he hears of the bombs detonation his mind will find some sort of link and return the memory. The brain is a true phenomenon (A/N Alright for the record I have NO idea why Dr. Manhattan didn't wipe his memory. He is a fucking GOD and he decided to just kill him instead. So I'm making up some stupid bullshit to try and justify it.) Dan gave a heavy sigh.

"So what do we do? Do we just pretend this never happened and get on with our lives?"

"I'm afraid so, we'll inform the press that I killed him and promise to keep this a secret as well, I know he was your best friend Dan but this is for the good of the world." The owl-costumed man slowly nodded. Dr. Manhattan grabbed a hold of their shoulders and they all teleported back to the United States.

Hokage tower: Naruto world

Rorschach was no a happy camper. Granted he never really has been since the day he was born but that's beside the point. He was currently walking towards the large tower to meet this "Hokage" as Naruto described. Along the way he explained a few things. Like how he doesn't know why these people attack him and neither does ji-ji. When questioned why he doesn't punish those responsible Naruto replied that his ji-ji said that he would arrest and execute anyone involved.

Then why did the very same man that Rorschach punched first in the mob just pass by them?

His ji-ji always told him to forgive these villagers as they were blind to see the truth but he always left it at that. Rorschach as starting to see the big picture. He doesn't know why but this old man seems to be manipulating him. The mobs that he most likely sends prevent him from developing a back bone and will be reluctant to stand up to authority. By appearing to be the caring grandfather, Naruto won't leave the village when he gets older because the Hokage will dangle the fact that it was he who saved the boy when he was younger over his nose and guilt and gratitude would override his common sense. The people who wear the jackets and headbands are what Naruto called as shinobi. This was some sort of military village that trains the young into soldiers to fight. Naruto must have some thing special about him that's making this leader do everything he can to make his life miserable and somehow ensure his loyalty. It also appears that this man is using bullshit lies and excuses to trick the blonde into thinking that he is his friend all we be well if he grows up to be a powerful ninja and earn the respect of those that scorn him. He even let the boy get into the ninja academy a year earlier then most Him being so young and ignorant would prevent him from seeing the truth and by the time he realizes it it would be too late. This old fuck is using him like a puppet to transform him into some type of fiercely loyal killing machine.

The very same people who ignored him were glaring and whispering behind his back. They were along the lines of "Looks like the demon has some kind of freak partner" and "Great, the demon has made a new follower, we should report this to Hokage-sama," Strangely, Naruto paid no attention to any of this just as well as he did. Was he that use to it? He would ask him later.

They had finally reached the tower and were heading up the flight of stairs. Rorschach had decided that he would make Naruto see the truth without directly telling him. He was just some new guy that saved the kid he wouldn't trust him over his grandfather figure.

But if the truth came from the said grandfather figure's mouth, that would be a different story.

The two had just finished taking the last flight of stairs and were now in front of some sort of secretary, who was also glaring at them. "Can I help you?" she asked, her tone laced with venom..

"We're here to see the Hokage." the masked man replied, as he deduced that this Hokage was the leader, who is apparently Naruto's ji-ji. The secretary narrowed her eyes.

"He is in a meeting, comeback later."

"Your lying," Rorschach replied calmly. Now the woman was starting to get pissed.

"I said come back later, now take that demon and get out of here before I come and have ANBU arrest the both of you!" she threatened though she wished for them to continue so the ANBU would take them away. Oh how they loved to torture that little abomination, especially Inu-san.

"Look lady, from what I've seen this kid is no demon. Now you can let me through willingly or I can enter on my own." Instead of answering, the secretary spat in his face, which resulted in her getting backhanded hard enough to hit the ground. The ex-watchman walked toward the door of the Hokage with Naruto following, ignoring the woman's cries for security. The two entered the room to see a fairly old man in some sort of white and red robe knee deep in paperwork. He was grumbling to himself before he noticed the new two's presence. He looked and saw Naruto and smiled warmly, though inwardly he was confused.

"Strange, Inu-san told me that the mob wouldn't be done for another hour or so. Maybe it was this man's doing." he thought.

"Hey ji-ji!" Naruto practically yelled.

"Hello Naruto-kun, who is this man?" he asked as he gestured towards him.

"His name is Rorschach. He saved me from the mean villagers!" Hiruzen looked over at Rorschach and bowed his head in appreciation but mentally frowned.

"Thank you Rorschach-san,"

"No problem, but do you mind if I ask a few questions?" The Sandaime nodded.

"Sure thing, Naruto-kun could you please leave the room." Naruto nodded and was about to turn around but Rorschach grabbed his shoulder.

"Actually I think it would be best if he stays here since it concerns him, that's not a problem right?" The old man's eyes narrowed a fraction of an inch before returning to normal

"What are you planning?" he thought. "Not at all, ask away."

"Just why are these people attacking what looks like an innocent child?" Sarutobi frowned.

"I'm afraid that is an S-class secret that I cannot reveal to you." Naruto gave him a puzzled look.

"But I thought you didn't know ji-ji." Mentally cursing, he tried to think of an excuse.

"Well Naruto-kun I..."

"So you've lied to him. Is there anything else that you "supposedly" don't know." Sarutobi scowled at the strangely dressed man.

"That is not your concern. Leave the room so Naruto and I can have a little chat."

"Do you plan to manipulate him further?" The wrinkled fire shadow scowled even more and Naruto gasped.

"Lies!"

"Manipulate? Ji-ji would never manipulate me!" he turned to him. "Right?" Hiruzen was about to answer until Rorschach spoke up.

"Never manipulate you? Then why did he lie to you about not knowing why you are hated? Why does he keep telling you to forgive these cruel bigots that don't hesitate to beat you? Why does he want you to start the academy early? So he can-" "ENOUGH!" Sarutobi yelled as he slammed his fist on the desk, creating a few cracks.

"I don't know who you are or why you take such an interest in Naruto, but I am not manipulating him!"

"Then prove it. Explain why he is hated. Prove that you are not keeping it from him." Rorschach goaded. Meanwhile Sarutobi was cursing up a storm.

"Son of a bitch! That's why he wanted the brat to stay, if I dodge his questions that Naruto will get suspicious. Dammit! I don't have any other choice but to give into his demands."

"(Sigh) Very well, Naruto remember when I told you about the Kyuubi no Kitsune being killed by the Yondaime?" Naruto nodded his head. "Well I lied, no one can kill a demon. The Yondaime chose the next best thing and decided to seal it...in you... at the cost of his own life."

Naruto lowered his head and stood there in complete shock. It all made sense now, the beatings, glares, whispers...it all made sense.

"They think I'm the demon that killed the Yondaime and all their loved ones..." Sarutobi nodded his head.

"I kept trying to explain to them that you are not the Kyuubi but they would never listen." Naruto raised his head to see eyes of pure hate and malice.

"You did lie to me." he said in a dangerous low voice.

"I'm sorry Naruto. I feet that you weren't ready but I assure you I am not trying to manipulate you. These villagers are blinded by sadness and hate to see you as you. That is why I'm asking you to forgive them." Rorschach could tell he was lying but decided it would be best if addressed it at a later date. Naruto has already gone through so much mental strain today.

"Does Naruto have his own place to stay."

"Yes, I gave Naruto his own apartment after the orphanage kicked him out. Why do you ask?"

"I'm not asking to adopt but I do want to look after him, at least for the next few years." this of course stunned Naruto and Sarutobi. It even stunned himself a bit. He was always a solitary person and having to take care of someone was unheard of in his case. But what this old fart was doing was horrible and he wanted him to be brought to justice. Truthfully he could care less for Naruto himself but he has an idea for him.

"Okay then Rorschach-san. I'm granting you legal custody of Naruto-kun." Naruto was so happy he was almost in tears. Someone to take care of him, real family even. He ran towards Rorschach and hugged his side tightly. The vigilante was never known for affection but at least put a hand on Naruto's shoulder. The two left in silence, leaving a seething village leader.

And...done! Well I have to admit, it is getting kind of fun again so I will continue this story. Just not as frequent as my other ones. Hope you enjoyed the chapter.

R&R JA NE!
