Legend of the Kitsune
Thanks to all of those who reviewed. They do help with their feed back. This chapter is where we meet Supergirl. Sorry for the wait but I wanted to introduce Naruto to the Justice League first as well as build his relationship with Max more.
Chrisdz: While you are right about him having daughters, he never gets to see them. They were and are being raised to be future priestesses, add that to his ninja life then he wouldn't have any time to see them even if he was allowed to. Hope that clears it up for you.
Chapter Eight: Aw Crap, Why can't Anything be Easy?
AN: I don't own Naruto or the Justice League

Last time on Legend of The Kitsune
"May I ask what you are doing?" She spoke with her commanding tone. Naruto didn't stop but addressed her anyway.
"Well it's about time I head back to Los Angeles. I still have to make up a date too. So cya." He gave a lazy wave as he walked towards the exit. This made everyone blink and the Flash appeared in front of him.
"Hold up pal. You just fought with a god and BEAT him. How are you still standing, much less alive?" He asked in freaked out tone.
"Wait, I need to talk to you." He turned and saw Superman and Batman. The rest of the League was a little behind them.
Naruto waited for him to speak patiently and Superman picked up on it. "I was wondering if you would like to join our team. We could use someone like you. I heard about the turn around in L.A. and We would be honored if you would accept." Naruto was honestly surprised and all he could do for a few seconds was blink. He chuckled and spoke with in a mirthful voice.
"I don't see why not." Superman smiled and spoke again.
"Great, meet me in Metropolis in a week and we'll get you introduced to the rest of the League."
"Hmmmm Max-chan ...Shion ...Koyuki..." He shuddered moving around the bed closing his legs and biting his lip. "Wha- .. ahhh . What are you .." He moved his face left and right holding his pillow tighter. " . Going to do with that ramen?... and those sexy .."
"Someone's at the door ." The Kyuubi said unhelpfully.
"No shit sherlock. I knew that." He said. Then the realization of who exactly was pounding on his door. "OH SHIT!" He rushed to the door and opened it and started to talk. "I'm so sor-"
A foot to the face cut him off. It didn't help that said foot had heels on. "You jackass! Do you have any idea how worried I was when you didn't come back on time?" The fire in her eyes told him he better answer correctly or he would be deeper in the hole he had dug.
"You know we could have one of those dates right now." Naruto suggested. Max smirked at his reaction and suantered out of the room, swaying her hips.
"Sure, I know a great Japanese place near the office."
Naruto was dressed and out the door quicker than humanly possible.

Metropolis, One Week after the Fight with Hades
Clark Kent normally was very calm and level headed, but today he was a bit tense, or rather more than tense try impatient.
As much as he was relived that no one on the Planet had gotten a tip about his team working together to stop Hades in the other news and gossip agencies. Sure no one knew it was an ancient Greek God causing all of the trouble throughout the world but everyone noticed the situation, or at the very least that something had happened. That did not make him feel any better. The Kuro Kaze had pretty much faded away from the scene as he had only made very few appearances in L.A. before disappearing for at least two weeks. Clark noticed that the hero prefered only to get involved when the situation was dire or when no one else was near enough or could help. Perry had been trying to find leads since he was curious as to who this hero was and why was it he was gone when he should be in L.A.
Clark was happy that the incident was not exposed. Kara was insistent that they find the Kuro Kaze and get some details straight and find out just where he came from and how he had such power. And she had good reasons but so far, the man was off the radar and not a single sighting of him had been made. Most would have thought that the hero had gone back to L.A, but there was no sighting of him there either so that meant that he was still missing.
Besides, he had promised to be here to meet the team and possibly join the Justice League.
'Where are you Kuro Kaze?'
Clark was tempted to go to Bruce and see if he had any more information on this new hero, since he knew Bruce would want to keep an eye on matters that were of concern. But he decided against it since there had been no mention of the hero in Gotham and if he was there, Bruce would have informed him, even more so since Bruce would not be the kind to let someone just appear in his city.
For now he was busy with his life as Clark Kent and he intended to keep it that way. But the best he could hope for was a chance to learn more about the mysterious Kuro Kaze and how he had learned about his true identity. And if possible, hear about any new happenings that can be linked to the blonde masked figure who had aided them against such a strong foe. All he could do was just wait it out until he showed.
He had no idea how soon that meeting would be.

With Naruto
Our favorite hero was in his new combat get up and leaping across the buildings of Metropolis.
Naruto Uzumaki had not greatly altered his appearance after his fight with the god of the underworld. He was wearing black cargo pants that were tucked into black, steel-toed combat boots. He had on a skin tight, sleeveless black shirt/mask combo. A Black trench coat that had a high collar and on the back of his coat it had the Kanji "Nine" written on in red ink that trailed down his back so it looked like he was bleeding topped the look. Its sleeves looked as if they had been ripped off and the bottom looked tattered as well. He also was wearing black sunglasses that covered his eyes. He had a summoning tatoo of the Dragons on his left arm. It looked like a black dragon ready to strike with tribal markings all around it. The Toad summoning tatoo was on his right arm, both were shown to the world proudly. His head band now was located on his right shoulder.
He also had what looked like an enormus bottle of sake hanging on his belt. A short chained Dragon ear ring hung from his left lobe. Naruto had a pair of black fingerless gloves with protective metal on the back of them. This was onto of a flap cut into the back of his trench coat so he could draw his blade with ease.
He had decided to alter his outfit a little bit and Max approved saying it was an improvement.
His look wasn't the only new addition. After his date with Max, Kurama, the Kyuubi, had told him the seal would finish absorbing him by the end of the week.
That was the reason why he had pushed off leaving until the very last moment. He was searching for a way through Fuinjutsu to see if it was possible to save his long time companion.
He had cut it close but he was able to rip what was left of Kurama's power as well as his soul and bond them into his blade, that already held a portion of his own soul. He had already merged with most of Kurama's power already so the change barely affected him.
The result wasn't overly drastic but the change waranted marit.
It was still black with red trimming but now a vivid depiction of Kurama was now on the blade facing down the dragon. Both paused in mid attack, neither looked like it would win but promised deadly damage to any in their path. At the end of the hilt it was now a fox skull that looked like it was grinning.
Kurama would be able to regain his power in time, but he wouldn't be back at full strength any time in the near future.
Naruto stopped atop the Daily Planet building and waited. It was one of the highest buildings in the city. As such he was sure Superman would notice him soon. Now all he could do was play the waiting game.
...
'Screw that.'
Naruto thought. He whipped out his little black notebook and started to come up with ideas for the next installment in The Gutsy Ninja Series.
He had fallen back to using his past exploits as inspiration. Naruto had already used the Wave mission and The Battle for Taki and the Hero's Water for two seperate books. Now all he had to do was decide which daring adventure would be next. Either the invasion of Sound and Sand or the Land of Snow, or Land of Spring as it was now called, mission.
Before he could decide he sensed the Justice League approach his location. Naruto noticed three new energy signatures were with them but just assumed that there were more in the League than he had originally thought.
He put his notebook back into his trusty supply pouch hanging off the back of his belt. Not ten seconds later the whole Justice League plus one, though Naruto didn't know it, were standing in front of the blonde hero.
Naruto was sitting on a ledge close to where he previously was standing and looked at the company coming in.
He had no problem recognizing Batman, Superman, Flash as well as the Martian Manhunter and Wonder Woman in the least, and he had seen images of the Green Lantern in the news every now and then though the Man was a bit too serious for his liking. And he had seen Hawk Girl in action on the news as well. But the other one was rather new to him in many ways, it was obvious to him that the tan skinned woman was an alien, most likely and possibly related to Supeman in some way, shape or form due to the big red S on her white top.
She also had blonde hair and green eyes and was wearing a blue mini-skirt. Naruto thought it left too much to the imagination but he wasn't complaining.
Hawk Girl had copper-red hair and wore a mask that had the look of a predatory bird and wore what could be described as interesting. Her face might be distorted and hidden by the said mask, but there was no doubt that she was attractive, as he also saw the deep green eyes in the holes, plus the full lips to boot. Her body was also well toned and shaped with muscle and not a single trace of fat anywhere on her, the bust was also around the size of Koyuki's though having a bit of fullness to it as well so she definitely had a body to die for. The wings only served to add to the whole exotic look that she was releasing.
The upper part of her costume was in the same style but was light yellow cream in color which held her more than ample bust and hugged her frame very well. She had a green belt with metallic buckle, a set of green skin tight pants of some material he could not identify, with red boots and a red style lower portion that he knew had best not be described in too much detail. Add that to the wicked looking mace she had with her and held on with a strap of leather like material on the wrist. She looked very attractive in an exotic way and yet looked like she would easily smash your face in if given a chance.
'Damn... If Ero-sennin were here, there definitely would be a very interesting conversation going on. One that would end up with him getting his ass kicked, but interesting.'
The Green Lantern was watching him with a scrutinizing gaze. The glowing green eyes unnerved Naruto just a little but he didn't show it.
There was an uncomfortable silence when the two parties stopped sizing each other up. One that Flash felt he needed to break.
"So Kaze buddy, what gives? No phone calls, no text messages, no emails. I was begining to think you didn't care." This earned him a smack on the back of his head from Hawk Girl. Though the statement released the tension, which had been its purpose, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
Naruto chuckled himself before speaking. "Sorry, I was helping an old friend who really needed it. I'm sure you understand." And most of them nodded, the only exceptions were Batman and GL. Batman because he rarely showed emotion and GL because he was still sizing up the 'new guy'.
John, aka the Green Lantern, had learned his lesson of not 'judging a book by it's cover', but when you here about someone who took on an immortal god with many powers, well you tend to get skeptical. Finally he spoke his opinion.
"To be honest with you, I don't trust you. You just come out of no where and suddenly take on a god like it's nothing and are up and walking the next day. I trust my team mates' judgement and I have no complaints about joining the League, but this is not a joke. Despite how Flash acts he is a seasoned hero and he knows what he's doing. I will put my faith in their choice, but one slip up, one mistake that could put them or anyone else in harms way and you'll be dealing with me."
The rest of the League was a little suprised by the speech but they were not really expecting him to just let it happen. Superman had a small frown, this was where the Kuro Kaze 'Makes it or Breaks it' as the saying goes.
To their slight amazement Naruto just laughed it off. "No need to worry about that. I would never knowingly put their or anybody else's lives at risk. You have my word on that. But that aside who is she? I've never seen her before, not even on the news." He said as the blonde nodded toward Supergirl.
The group relaxed at hearing the blonde hero's words. Superman chuckled and spoke before his cousin could say some things she might regret. She was still miffed about the news of someone around her age joining the League when she
"That is Supergirl, my cousin. She hasn't joined the League yet because she's too young and inexperienced in our line of work. And though you may be a new hero, you definantly proved yourself when you held off Hades long enough for us to send him back. That kind of self sacrifice and attitude is needed in this world more than you know. Anyway, with all of that out of the way, I would like to welcome you to the Justice League Kuro Kaze. We'll take you to the Watchtower right now so you can get familar with the place."
Naruto seemed confused for a second. "Wait. Hold on a second. How are you going to get us to the-"
His question was cut off as beams of light surrounded them all and whiscked them away.
:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P
Well this chapter was more of a filler, the next one will have his first interaction with Supergirl and maybe a little more. No not a lemon for those of you who thought that. I may, key word, MAY do one later in the story when the moment strikes me.
Read, Review, Flames will be used to roast marshmellows.
Cya, this is Razor.
