Hello again! This is the third chapter to come out in the past few days. This is good! I have a lot of ideas for this story. Oh and I thought I might clear something up. The titans ages!

Robin – 18

Cyborg – 19

Starfire – 18

Raven – 17

Beast-Boy – 16

Most of them are adults now, though they're still teens, for now. I may change them to just 'Titans' when one of them becomes 20, but I'm not sure.

The inspiration for this chapter and future ideas came from Wendy Rule and her songs: 'The Raven Song', 'Inanna', 'Horses', 'La Femme De La Mer' and 'Creator Destroyer'. I listened to them as I wrote this chapter

I do not own anything other than my own ideas. Enjoy the chapter.

"So what now?"

Robin raised an eyebrow at the question. "What do you mean?"

"Considering I just spent a hell of a long time trapped inside a temple bound against my will, I have nowhere to live." Naruto told the brightly dressed titan. Even Naruto could guess that after a couple hundred years that the world would have changed drastically, never mind centuries.

Cyborg popped up in-between the two with a "You live with us of course!" with Beast-Boy nodding energetically behind him.

"That would be most delightful! I must cook the foods of my home world for you… um… may I be the one to ask you your name?" Starfire chimed in with a questioning look. Naruto shrugged his shoulders and told her.

"He can stay with us until he can get his own place." Raven stated monotonously. Hey, just because he was extremely similar to her, which absolutely frightened her in fact, didn't mean she wanted him around all the time.

The rest of the team could only agree with the dark teen's words as she walked off. Beast-Boy decided to get to know the blond-haired half-demon as the entire team plus Naruto walked out of the temple.

Unknown to anyone as they left, a shattered statue dissolved into what looked like lavender flames before vanishing.

Naruto…

"…and then he said 'This child… intrigues me to no end!' while his tongue extended like… three feet!" Naruto said, hands wide apart as if showing Beast-Boy how long the tongue became.

"Ugh." Beast-Boy shuddered. "This Orochi guy sounds creepy."

Naruto had just finished telling the furred teen about the creep that was Orochimaru back in his time. Speaking of Orochimaru… he probably found a way to survive these past few centuries.

Cyborg suddenly stopped and turned around. Arms widening in a 'welcome' gesture he said "Welcome to the Titans Tower!"

Naruto looked up, only to see what he could call a giant T. It was a huge building in the shape of a massive T on a small island. The building consisted of mainly white with the windows being a dark grey.

"You sure do like white." Naruto joked only for Cyborg to rub the back of his head nervously.

"Have you seen my color scheme?" The metal teen asked Naruto, gesturing to his body.

"Fair enough." Naruto shrugged in acceptance. It made sense actually, like his old obsession with orange. Thankfully he saw how awful bright orange was before he got sealed.

"I'll meet you there." Raven raised her arms slightly and sunk into black and white energy, vanishing from her previous spot. She didn't want to be near the blonde any longer than she had to. It wasn't that he was a bad person, honestly he seemed like quite the opposite. Still, he brought out this inner fear in her that hadn't completely vanished after facing down her father Trigon.

"Sweet." Was all the blonde had to say. It wasn't everyday you saw someone teleport. Though, it wasn't the first time he saw something similar… stupid Obito. Obito was an annoying masked man who started the events that made Naruto's life hell. He was a story that Naruto really didn't want to think about anymore.

It was another ten minutes later when Naruto found himself in the living room of the Titans Tower. The inside consisted of greys, black, and a red rug that led from the door to the middle of the room where the couch was, with a red circular rug underneath it, and then branched off left and right into different hallways. Red rug also covered the entire second floor in the living room, including the stairs leading up to it.

"Nice place." Naruto whistled and collapsed onto the couch. Feeling the soft cushion underneath him, Naruto let out a small sigh of comfort as he closed his eyes.

Raven was gazing into a mirror as she gathered her thoughts, the same mirror that Beast-Boy and Cyborg had disappeared into when they went into her room without permission.

She was afraid. She was afraid that Naruto would bring about the destruction of the world like her father tried to do once before. Raven and her friends had defeated him but it had been an extremely close call. She couldn't help but feel that something was off with Naruto. His story seemed almost exactly like the legend told to the humans in this realm, except with a notable difference, he wasn't the bad guy. In reality no one was, just like no one was the hero either. His time, from what she gathered, was heavily militarized and that usually meant that war was a constant thing. Maybe they had wanted to use his demon power against the other armies? But Naruto had said that they tried to kill him when they found out about it. Something wasn't adding up. Perhaps she should try to find out what? Raven shook her head. She couldn't do something like that.

The grey-skinned girl put down the mirror and closed her eyes in thought. She decided to research the world Naruto came from. His world was eons behind this world, meaning she had to get some of the older history books she had in her collection.

Raven pulled her hood up and walked into a room off to the side of her bedroom. It was slightly smaller than her bedroom and was filled to the brim with books. Some looked old, and some looked old. As if they were from the Dark Ages. Considering how far Raven needed to look back, she might of well be searching through the Dark Ages themselves.

After searching through her history section, she came upon a book title that jarred a specific memory from what Naruto had said. "The Five Great Nations…" She gently took hold of the book and opened the old thing.

The Five Great Shinobi Nations are the five largest countries are led by governmental leaders, known as the daimyō, who are in charge of ruling their individual nations solely through a monarch-like government. These countries are divided equally to create balance amongst the shinobi. They are the Land of Earth in the Northwest, the Land of Lightning in the Northeast, the Land of Water in the East, the Land of Wind in the Southwest, and the Land of Fire in the centre…

Raven read, fascinated about the information she was reading. One snippet caught her attention as she continued to read.

Following the aftermath of the Six Sage War, the Five Great Shinobi Countries were able to finally put aside their differences and remain great allies, able to discuss anything without prejudice clouding their judgement, forming the Shinobi Union…

"The Six Sage War…" Raven mumbled to herself, eyes widening slightly. It seemed as if the blonde-haired demon was telling the truth… if only just a little bit.

Miles away a red-haired man grinned maniacally. Black rimmed eyes widened in obvious insanity as he flexed his hands, pops and creaks echoing in the forest. Sand burst from underneath the grassy clearing he was in, covering the nearby area with a foot of sand.

"I've found you… Naruto…"

Naruto was relaxing on the couch with the Titans, minus Raven, which they had told him was normal. He was having a great time with the 'television' they had. It intrigued him that they could put small moving images to a thing in space of all places, and have it transmit to hundreds, nay – thousands of different boards all across the world.

Currently the were watching something called 'Breaking Bad', a story about a meth dealer with cancer that wanted to provide for his family before he died.

"What is meth? Or cancer?" Naruto had asked the titans, only for them to shush him while he pouted and complained that they were mean to him.

Suddenly a boom rang throughout the city.

"Not again!" Beast-Boy complained.

"I agree; this is most unfortunate!" Starfire agreed with the furred teen.

"Let's go Titans! Beast-Boy, get Raven and meet us at whatever caused the explosion!" Robin commanded.

"I'm coming along!" Naruto said with a small frown. "This seems familiar somehow…"

The Titans could only stand in shock as a giant…. Sand racoon-dog attacked the city while shouting in rage.

"Help me! Give me the Nine-Tails! I need the Nine-Tails" The giant tanuki cried as if he were in pain. The sand monster looked like a racoon-dog from a nightmare, it's eyes were hollow, devoid of emotion, it's body had purple markings all over it's body which made the monstrosity only that much more menacing. The tanuki slammed a sand fist into the side of a skyscraper, causing sand to wrap around it and crush it before reforming into it's hand.

Naruto could only stand in disbelief as the monster, a childhood friend he thought long dead, attacked the city.

"Gaara…" He whispered softly.
