Wow, that was quick. But considering that most of this was me just typing what I saw on the first half of episode one...yea

And the Naruto/StarWars crossover will probably take place in 'A New Hope', I'm not going to start it yet... I can't focus on that many things at once, no matter how much I want that believe I can...

Timeskip Three years

–

Deep within the Earth, there exists another world completely different from our own. An underground lair unknown to humankind.

"Alright!" A chuckle was heard, "Gramps always talked about this place back when he was alive. Everybody laughed and said that he was making it up, but I always believed him..."

A red haired boy sat on a stone ledge in front of a pyramid. He close the journal he was reading from.

"I believed him enough to come all this way..."

He leaped to his feet.

"That's why I'm going to find it..." He declared, "Let's go!"

He jumped into the pyramid and automatically began to slide on the surface of the tunnel.

"YAHOOO!"

His shriek of delight echoed in the forgotten walls.

"According to this entry in Gramp's secret journal, he discovered a door somewhere inside this pyramid." He continued sliding, "The door that leads right to the Inner World."

He flinched slightly as a bunch of bats flew into his face. He shielded his face as they flew past him.

"Takes more than that to scare me."

He neatly executed a flip as the slide came to an end. Landing on his feet, he took a quick survey of his surroundings.

"No way, this can't be a dead end." He whined while pushing against a wall. He promptly took out his grandfather's journal again.

"I followed Gramp's directions exactly, it's gotta be here somewhere..."

–

Unknown location

–

"You're becoming a workaholic, Naruto."

"I am not, I'm just...training."

"Train later, travel now."

"Geez, you're stubborn, Dsiban..."

"And you just noticed?"

"Alright, alright..."

A blond boy raised his arm up and intoned in a low voice.

"Dsiban, spider out."

The large silvery grey spider appeared in a flash of light and stretched his limbs while turning towards his Bonded. As the battle spider gazed at his rider, he absentmindedly noted the differences that his Bonded his gone through even since Sarin's theft.

Naruto had grown. He was remarkably taller than he was before and the baby fat on his face had lessened considerably. His hair had grown slightly longer which resulted with him looking a lot like his father. Naruto turned towards him, sapphire eyes flashing.

"Alright..." He jumped onto the arachnid's back, "To Arachna Kingdom."

Dsiban immediately leaped into the air.

"Let's ride!"

–

"Hellooo?" The red headed boy yelled down a tunnel. He listened for a response and went over to a door and started to push.

"You can't hide from me..."

He started to run to different areas of the room knocking, yelling, or pulling an assortment of things. He took out a pick and started to lightly hit the floor. His eyebrow came up in surprise when a small spider crawled out of a crack. He sat down in exhaustion.

"I might as well face it, there is no door..."

He sat in silence for a few seconds before frowning.

"No way, shake it off!" He spoke confidently, "It's like Gramps always said... Don't ever stop, don't ever give up! And then he'd jump up and yell, ARACHNA POWER!"

Suddenly, the ruins shook and groaned. A stone door slid open next to the boy.

"Oh yea!" He grinned and scrambled to his feet and ran through the now open door, "Aright, I found it!"

He examined the the dusty items on a rack. He picked up an archaic horn and dropped it on the floor. A shoe followed. After a few more moments of digging through the things he shouted in frustration.

"Nothing's gonna stop me, from finding the Inner World!"

A spider slowly let down it's webbing intent on reaching the floor. The green eyed boy looked at the arachnid.

"Huh?" He gazed at the small spider, "SPIDER!"

He reached out an arm to a nearby pillar and leaned away from the spider. However the small pillar could not hold his weight and crumbled quickly. The items on the rack crashed onto the floor. The boy sat down and shielded his head with his arms. A blue manacle with a green jewel latched itself to his wrist as it fell. It glowed slightly and crackled with purple energy. He coughed, trying to get rid of the dust in his throat. He narrowed his eyes at the small spider.

"I wasn't scared of you, you know." He turned his attention to his wrist, "What? What's this? How did-"

The green jewel glowed brightly and a faint spider symbol could be seen in it.

"Wha? Hey, what's going on here?"

The pyramid glowed in a purple light as stones started to fall from the ceiling. He got to his feet and ran in a random direction.

"This whole place is coming down!"

He ran to ledge and changed directions as more rocks fell near him. Suddenly, a large slab of rock dropped near his feet. He jumped and was knocked askew into the glowing crevice. He landed on the flat surface of a sliding rock. He slide quickly down to the pool of glowing light. The pool of light was like quicksand, no matter how much he struggled, he continued to sink.

"HELP!"

He blinked in surprise as the purple light abruptly disappeared and he was surrounded with a warm golden glow.

"Wow..." He looked around him in amazement and instantly noticed a large green orb, "Look at that!"

The green light cleared leaving a green-haired woman in sight. She held her hands out to the boy.

"She's beautiful..."

He held his hand out, wanting to get closer to her. A white light engulfed him as his hand got nearer to his. A few seconds later, he couldn't see anymore, it was all white.

–

Kingdom of Arachna

–

A young women in brown robes gasped as a piece of her crystal clinked off. She lifted her head to the figure standing at the window.

"No... Princess Sparkle… A shadow of an Earthen has crossed my crystal; it is a sign of great evil to come."

The young girl looked over at the woman with pale violet eyes. She sighed while answering.

"What does it matter?" She paused. "Great evil arrived to this kingdom a long, long time ago…and it's made itself at home."

–

Castle Mantid

–

A large purple crystal cracked leaving a slight web of splinters. A dark figure glanced at it. He spoke with a husky voice.

"So…Another human has arrived to the Inner World… Well, well…The Oracle still has some power left…for now…"

He chuckled coldly.

–

Infucatus Forest

–

The red haired boy slowly woke up and blinked at the large trees that shaded him.

"I'm outside..." He blinked, "And the sun...is so big..."

He pulled himself to a sitting position.

"What happened? Where am I?" He held his hand to his hand, "Can't remember..."

He looked at his surroundings.

"Well, wherever I am, it sure is weird..."

He looked at the colorful vegetation that surrounded him.

"I don't get it," He scratched his head, "The last thing I remember was trying to get out of the pyramid...I was looking for the Inner World..."

–

Outside Infucatus Forest

–

A girl with blond hair spoke out loud while looking at the forest. She was dressed in pink armor with small white wings. She held a bow.

"Venus, I'm at the edge of the forest. Are you sure the Invectids were spotted here?"

"I'm sure. The information is quite reliable."

"I'm going in."

"Don't be reckless, Corona."

"Don't worry... I promised Aqune that I'd be good!"

With that said, she walked at a fast pace to the forest.

–

Infucatus Forest

–

The boy moved his hand across the bark of a reddish tree.

"Weird... Crazy trees."

Corona hid behind a tree and searched around her for any lifeforms. When she saw none, she ran into the quiet forest.

The boy climbed over a fallen tree trunk and suddenly lost his balance. He tumbled over the trunk and let out an exclamation of surprise. He quickly got to his feet and jumped over the next few in his path.

"What is this place?" He spoke out loud. He turned his head to look at the tree trunk as a spider spun it's webbing in front of him. He let out another exclamation of surprise of caught himself from yelling.

"Another spider, huh?" He looked at the arachnid skeptically, "Not this time, pal."

Corona rushed behind another tree and gasped slightly in surprise of the sight of a boy having a stare-off with a spider.

The boy stared at the spider walking along the tree trunk.

"Takes more than a spider to scare me."

Corona moved her gaze up and frowned at the Invectid balancing on a tree branch with a sharp sickle.

"Invectid." She said the word with distaste, "Hmph, I gotcha."

In a flash, the Invectid leaped from its perch. It growled as it aimed for its target. The boy turned at the sudden noise. Corona ran from the tree and lifted her bow up with an arrow notched to it.

"Get down!" She shouted while letting the arrow loose.

The Invectid threw its sickle and was immediately struck by the pick arrow. The sickle sank into the wood into front of the boy. He jumped back with fear and surprise in his eyes. Corona put down her bow and looked over at him.

"Hey..." They stared at each other for a few moments, "A stranger...with a manacle? Don't move."

At that, the boy jumped over the tree trunks at an amazing speed ignoring Corona's further words.

–

"Dsiban, spider in."

The large spider disappeared in a flash of silvery light. Naruto let his arm down as he looked at the forest.

"Naruto? Why did we have to stop?"

"There are people in the forest."

"So, it's a forest with people in it, who's cares?"

"There was an Invectid here as well."

"Oh."

Naruto carefully wrapped bandages over his manacle and jumped onto a tree branch. He checked that his manacle was fully covered and whispered.

"Not a peep out of you, Dsiban."

He heard a light grunt and smiled. Then he jumped to another branch in search of the Invectid.

–

Corona looked at the empty clearing.

"I can't believe it! That manacle..." She lifted her wrist and looked at it, "That boy is a... Spider Rider?"

–

The red-haired boy ran as if his life depended on it.

"This place is too freakin' weird! I just want to get back home!"

He stopped in his tracks as another thought came to mind.

"Eh, she seemed normal... I wonder who she was? I should have tried to talk to her. Played it cool" He smiled dreamily, "That's some arachna power you got there."

The jewel in the manacle glowed again.

"If it weren't so creepy here, I'd stick around..."

He looked at the sky and suddenly felt like something was near. He turned around chiding himself.

"Relax..."

A thump made him turn around completely. A large blue and white spider stood there, silent. It looked at the manacle on his wrist. The boy looked at the spider and turned away and started to run.

"SPIDER!" He fell, stood up again, and ran right out of the forest.

–

"SPIDER!"

Naruto frowned and stood still behind the truck of a tree. He had already found the remains of the Invectid, nasty stuff, really. He was about to leave towards Arachna Kingdom again but...clearly something was happening here, and he was going to find out. He silently jumped to another branch towards the origin of the shout.

–

Petrosus Mountains

–

"Spider! Spider! SPIDER!"

The red-haired boy screamed as he ran past small mountains. The blue battle spider silently followed using its webbing as a trapeze of some sort. He stopped abruptly when he noticed that the battle spider was right in front of him, rather than way behind him. He blinked and turned the other way and started to sprint again.

"AHHHH!"

–

"AHHHH!"

This was getting ridiculous. Naruto turned his head towards the mountains, shrugged, and leaped off of a ledge and in the direction of the mountains.

–

The boy slid into a small cave and held his breath.

"I gave him a slip." He smirked happily and gave a thumbs up.

He suddenly grunted as the ceiling started to crack. The rock face was lifted off and the battle spider came into sight. He gaped and scrambled to his feet once more and started to run up a mountain. He noticed a large, slightly round rock and stop. He whistled and kicked the rock down toward the battle spider.

"Eat rock, spider!"

The rock smashed into the ground and the boy snapped his fingers and smiled.

"Gotcha- Huh?"

He looked up at the sky where the spider leaped into.

"Don't gotcha..."

The blue and white battle spider landed on the ground near him. The boy looked at the spider in dismay.

"Aw, can't you take a little joke?"

The spider stepped forward a few steps and he stepped back. He nearly lost his balance but he managed to stay on the ledge. He started to talk to himself.

"Think! What would Gramps say?" He smirked to himself and shouted, "ARACHNA POWER!"

Light exploded from the manacle surrounding both the spider and the boy and reached upwards.

–

Corona looked up at the sky.

"That light can mean only one thing."

–

An Invectid with an helmet watched the light reach to the Oracle Sun.

"How intriguing... A spider...and an Earthen..."

–

Naruto looked up at the Oracle Sun.

"Naruto! What was that?"

"I don't know...exactly." He moved his manacle closer to his mouth, "But I'll find out."

–

"It has begun."

Wow, that was boring... Maybe not for me because I had to watch the first episode again ^_^, but for you maybe, since you had to read what I wrote... I had to cut the episode in half or this chapter would be longer than my other ones and I try to keep them at a manageable length...

And I know I'm 'redoing' the first episode... The things will pick up when they get to Arachna Kingdom =D
