I explained what had happened to my world (though the others- except Kyle -insisted that I meant village) and was dragged off to their 'Hokage,' the teenagers believing I was insane. Naruto unceremoniously tossed me in front of the Hokage's desk, my hands and legs bound, and the Hokage looked up from her paperwork.
"This crazy guy-" Naruto began when I cut him off.
"Shut up!" I shouted. "I'm not crazy!"
"Why else would you talk about keyswords and heartfuls!" Naruto asked, and the Hokage's eyes went wide.
"Don't you mean keyblades and Heartless?" The Hokage asked.
"That's what he said." Sakura said.
"Untie him right now!" The Hokage ordered, standing up. After a second of hesitation they did as she said and I sat up, rubbing my wrists as the Hokage talked to me. "Sorry about them. Not everyone knows about the Heartless. I'm Tsunade."
"Jeremiah," I nodded.
"So, why are you here?" Tsunade asked.
"To get stronger and bring my world back." I said, standing.
"What happened to your world?" Tsunade asked. Naruto, Sakura, and Kyle stood back, though Kyle was silently singing 'Lust For Life' by Iggy Pop.
"The Heartless took it over." I said. "Only my friend Ianus and his sister Phaedra made it out. I hope somebody else did, but I don't know."
"Where are your friends?" Tsunade asked.
"We split up." I said. "I can create portals with my keyblade, while Ianus had to use another portal. It's a long story."
Tsunade nodded. "You can tell it to me after you get some sleep. You look tired."
Right after she said that, I realized how fatigued I actually was. I yawned, and Tsunade walked over to me, putting a hand on my shoulder and leading me to an inn. She got my a bed, and as soon as my head hit the pillow I was out like a light.
When I woke up, I found black pants, a black long-sleeve shirt, a green flak jacket, and sandals near my bed. I took a shower, put them on, and faced Konoha.
When I got out onto the street, I immediately saw Kyle. He had long brown hair, mismatched eyes, and a goofy smile on his face. He was singing loudly, wearing a green flak jacket, black pants, and a short-sleeved black t-shirt. When he saw me, he stopped singing.
"'Sup dude?" Kyle asked. "Y'know, it's hard being in this series without spoiling some of Naruto: Kyle's Story. I'll try my best, though."
I had no idea what he was talking about, so I said "...Okay."
"Anyways, I'll be showing you around Konoha." Kyle said. "So, dude, what do you want to do next?"
"Find out how to help this world on its way." I said, not in the mood for a talk with a psycho.
"Oy." Kyle sighed, bending over. "Y'know, this would be a good time for a few Heartless to appear."
As if on cue, four Heartless appeared.
"Yeah!" Kyle shouted. Kyle shot fire out of his mouth, destroying two of the Heartless, while my keyblade appeared in my hand and I destroyed the other two with a few attacks from my keyblade. After the small battle, Kyle said "Hey, man, that's pretty wicked. Can I check it out?"
I shrugged and handed it to him, but, before he could touch it, the keyblade reappeared in my hand.
"Looks like it doesn't like you." I said sarcastically, the keyblade disappearing when I wished it to.
"That happens a lot." Kyle shrugged, then said "Dude, wanna get some ramen?"
"For breakfast?"
"It's lunchtime. Maybe you can tell me how I can help you on your way while we eat."
I winced. "I, err, don't exactly know myself."
"Huh." Kyle smiled. "Being a hero while you got no clue what you're doing? We're more alike than I thought."
"I doubt it, but still. Good to have you with me." I said, shaking Kyle's hand. As soon as our hands touched, I heard somebody speak.
"Hey Kyle." A girl said, and Kyle immediately span around.
"Annie!" Kyle smiled, running at her. She sidestepped his tackle, however, and looked me over.
"I've never seen you here before. I'm Aneko," the girl said. She had lavender hair and big brown eyes.
I nodded. "Jeremiah. I'm different."
"Who isn't?" Aneko asked, smiling, while Kyle started dancing.
