…Year 1979

Marie Logan tried her best not to seem nervous but her thumbs that were twiddling around one another was a clear sign that she was anxious about this meeting. The young woman dressed in a white buttoned blouse, blue bell bottom pants, and a checkered woman's sports coat tried to keep her hands occupied by grabbing an issue of Variety on the coffee table in front of her as she tried to sit still in the waiting room chair.

The red-haired teenager tried to read the article that she randomly opened but couldn't help but let her eyes wander over at the receptionist behind the table that sat next to the studio head's office.

This was it, this one meeting would either make or break Marie's carrier and decide her faith as an actor. The project could have tested well enough to be given at least a season run or the pilot tanked with the test screening so much that it could mark Marie as "not lead star material" and she'd go back to either background acting or at the very least minor speaking roles in a slew of other projects giving her the label as a best friend or girlfriend of the week type character actor.

"Miss Logan?"

The receptionist managed to catch Marie by surprise as she fumbled the paper in her hand that had put together pages rained down on her.

"Ah…Mr. Karlo will see you now."

Marie got up from the chair and quickly adjusted her jacket as she played off the mess she made as she walked towards the double doors to her future, "yes thank you." She said as she opened both doors at the same time out of carelessness that quickly shifted to drive as she placed on her best look of confidence and she entered the room.

"Basil!"

"Miss Marie Logan, there she is my future star in the making!"

As Marie walked towards the studio head's desk, he met her halfway through by walking towards her and giving her a small peck on the cheek. Basil Karlo himself was once an actor for the studio too once upon a time. But when he felt his time on the golden screen was ending, he had enough sense to shift over from performing to a more administrative aspect of show business.

Dressed in a grey suit with a black tie that matched his salt and pepper hair Basil used his hand to gesture towards one of the chairs from across his desk as he walked around and sat back in his original big chair.

"So how have you been Kido?" Karlo asked with a friendly tone as he adjusted his black-framed glasses. "Did anyone offer you something to drink, soda or tea? I just came back from overseeing a project from across the pond in England and ended up getting hooked on the stuff."

"No, no I'm fine Karlo," Marie stated as she sat down, letting her eyes wander again the up-and-comer couldn't help but see a few scripts on Karlo's desk, hopefully, they would be for her. "So future star in the making?" Marie asked as she leaned forward with a raised brow. "Is that your way of saying that the pilot tested through the roof?"

Basil locked his finger as he placed his arms on his desk as tried to find the right words to Marie the news. "Well yes and no."

Sitting back a bit confused Marie slumped down a bit as she asked, "Well which is it, are we green-lit for the season or not?"

Letting out a sigh Basil took off his glasses as he ran a hand over his face, "It's like this Kiddo the show itself is going into production just…not with you."

Marie almost got off the chair when she heard that last bit. "Wha…what happened?" she asked franticly as all the fear and the voices in her head that said that she wasn't good enough suddenly became louder. "The test audience didn't like…like me?"

"What?!" Basil shouted with a bit of surprise. "No of course not they loved you Kiddo it's just that…"

"Basil, you're stalling isn't making this any easier," Marie said back as she got up and placed her hands on the table. "Just tell me what it was I did or didn't do, and I promise I'll work on it."

"You didn't do anything wrong or awful Kido it's like I said the test screeners loved you it's just well…they've seen you or characters like you over a dozen times now in a bunch of other television shows before."

Marie stood silent as Basil looked out his window and pointed over toward some of the portraits painted on the sides of production buildings across from the offices. "The whole lovable cheerleader who gets into wacky situations has been a played-out staple of syndicated television since the beginning it's just well the audience wants something different than what Hello Megan is, right now at least."

Swirling his chair around Basil picked up one of the scripts off his desk and handed it to the red-haired young lady. "We're keeping the setting of a typical American household and high school just changing a few things about the main character."

"What so Megan isn't the popular cheerleader that everyone loves?" Marie asked as she took the script and flipped to the first act. "Is she the quiet wallflower now who tries to stand out or something because I can play that no problem, I'll just have my hair up and wear a pair of big goofy glasses…no offense."

Basil nervously waved the insult off as he reached for his portable drink tray and slowly poured himself a snort of whisky, something else that he had picked up from his time overseas. Taking a deep sip of the strong liquid he braced himself when he felt Marie skimming through the pages.

"WHAT IN THE HELL IS THIS BULLSHIT?!"

Basil nearly drowned from the burning spirit as it traveled down his throat as he prepared to pour himself another glass.

"Seriously Basil is this some kind of sick joke?!" Marie asked as she shouted angrily and pointed at the page she had just read.

"I take it you don't agree with the new material?"

"Agree with the new mat…" Marie stopped herself from saying back the studio head's words as she threw the script back on his desk. "Basil, what the hell is this?"

"I told you Kiddo it's a new direction," Basil said as he tried to calm the teenage girl down. "Something that's never been done before on TV."

"…Basil in the opening scene of the first episode Megan is…is…performing oral sex...on her father!"

"Blowjob," Basil said as he raised his glass. "You're not a child Marie, you can just call it a blowjob."

"Smut that's what I'm calling it!" the freckle-faced redhead snapped back as she flipped through the pages while not daring to pick the script back up. "Look at this garbage you have Megan having all different types of sex acts on three different characters…in the first episode!"

"Jesus, Marie this isn't going to be a stag film, It's not real sex scenes," Basil said as he took a sip of his drink. "It's all going to be simulated with camera angles to give off the impression that the characters are doing the deed, it's not real."

"What about the nudity?" Marie asked as she flipped through to the second act. "You have a scene set in the girl's locker room with the whole cheer squad in their birthday suits!"

"Well, how else are they supposed to shower in their swimsuits?" Basil asked, trying to make a joke only for Marie to glare daggers back at him. "Look Kiddo it's like I said we need something different. Something titillating and well let's face it erotic to hook in a new crowd in than just the same old family gathering around the tube while eating dinner together. This show will be for young mostly single adults to watch and gossip about at the water cooler on Mondays."

"Oh, and how are you planning to air it?" Marie asked as she angularly shoved the script across the table, this time not caring that its pages were unrattled. "You think the FCC or any affiliate station will air this?"

"Kiddo this new Hello, Megan isn't meant for the public airwaves, it's going to be part of our private home satellite project." Basil pulled a pamphlet out from his desk and handed it to the angry young actress.

"We're launching a new channel with our cable packages that customers would subscribe to as a sort of premium channel. Legally speaking we could put every stag film in existence on the programming block if we wanted to but we're limiting our sexual content to what we like to refer to as soft-core eroticism."

As Marie looked at the cable options she looked back at Basil with contempt. "You seriously think either Greg or Brandon are going to let you get away with this?" Marie asked as she referred, Hello Megan's creators and showrunners. "They're comedy writers and this show was their baby, they told me so themselves!"

"Greg Vietti and Brandon Weisman are no longer attached to this project," Basil said sternly as the voice box on his table lit up. "Just one second."

As Marie looked even more flabbergasted than before she watched as Mr. Karlo answered the box as his receptionist talked from the other end.

"Mr. Karlo, Mr. Sleez and Ms. De Mille are here to see you."

"Good, send them in." Getting up again Basil gestured towards the door as two people walked and entered, "Marie Logan, I'd like you to meet Sleez Grossman and Miss Laura De Mille the new showrunner and…and the new star of Hello, Megan."

Getting off her chair Marie saw a short balding man wearing a black and red pinstriped suit walking towards them with a cigar in one hand he was escorted by a beautiful young woman with ivory skin and long silky ebony hair. The woman who looked like she was a few years older than Maire was wearing a red dress with long sleeves but was cut short along the hem so that Marie could see her well-toned thighs.

As the young woman walked Marie could tell that she didn't deem it necessary to wear any kind of support underneath her clothes as the woman's nipples from her larger-than-average breasts seemed to be sticking right up against the fabric of her dress.

As the black-haired beauty took a seat next to Marie as she slumped back down on her chair. the younger teen was having a hard time taking her eyes off her replacement. So much so that she couldn't even find the proper words to express herself at the moment.

Marie was finally broken out of her trance when Sleez walked between her and Ms. De Mille as he leaned a bit down and blew a puff of smoke of his cigar from his lips and into Marie's face.

Getting up to clear her vision as she let out a few coughs Marie opened her eyes to see that the man Sleez had taken the opportunity to steal her seat.

"Not bad not bad at all," Sleez said as he leered up at Marie, "I can see why you went up to bat on trying to keep this little number on board, B.K."

Using the ash try on Basil's desk to clear his dried ash Sleez leaned over to Laura as he nodded over towards Marie. "So, what do you think Laura my love, should we try to convince the lovely Miss Logan to stick around for our new show?"

Laura leaned in close to Sleez while her piercing blue eyes looked over at Marie, "She has potential," Laura said while taking the opportunity to give Marie the once over herself. "I can see her playing Megan's cute little doe-eyed host sister who falls under Megan's spell like the parents."

Laura then ran a hand over her dark locks as she added. "I think that we could definitely at least keep the character's original hair color for this retool. Scarlet hair just screams seductress…If used by the right woman that is."

Marie felt her face turn the same color as the aforementioned hair as she pointed at the two while addressing Basil, "Just who are these two…people?!" the young actress tried her best to stay civil by not calling the two something else that came to mind… like creep and hussy.

"Like I said this is Sleez Grossman," Basil said as he pointed to the short stocky bald man.

Marie's anger dipped down a little as she looked back at the cigar chopper with blank disbelief. "…Sleaze gross man, are you kidding me with that name?" she asked rhetorically, "How does that not scream I sell smut from the trunk of my car at night?"

"Now, now, now Miss Logan," Sleez said slowly as he took a small drag of his cigar. "It's pronounced S-lez Grossman!" he said his last name with a quick German accent. "Ironically it means large man in German!" he added with a laugh.

"Oh Sleez," Laura raised her hand over towards the short man and ran it up and down his thigh, "You are a big man…where it counts at least!" The two broke out in a laugh as the shape of a long cucumber object began to rise and grow from where Laura was stroking Sleez's thigh.

Marie looked even more embarrassed and angry than before as she silently looked towards Basil, a man she had great respect for up to a minute ago for a proper explanation.

"Marie, I met Sleez here during my trip to London, he may not look like it but he's a prize-winning author and playwright who specializes in erotic thrillers which is what we plan to turn Hello, Megan into."

"E…erotic thriller?" Marie asked.

"That's right sweetheart," Sleez replied with a wag of his stogie. "The show's now about the Wheeler family who's taken in a beautiful new foreign exchange student into their home for the year," Sleez explained as he picked up a loose page from his script that Marie had previously thrown. "Mrs. Wheeler is now a state senator with aspirations for the White House. She and Mr. Wheeler a retired Officer of the Navy are hosting Megan in hopes that it'll boost Mrs. Wheeler's foreign diplomatic connections down the line."

"But," Basil said cutting in as a look of genuine excitement was beaming from his face. "Megan, who the Wheelers think is the daughter of foreign diplomats is really a spy and seductress sent to slowly infiltrate and gather intelligence using her body to do so for her home country of…what was it again Sleez?"

"It's not important," Sleez waved off as he took another hit of his cigar again. "All that matters is that it's got sex and suspense two ingredients that'll keep the audiences hooked week after week!"

"So…that opening scene then the one where Megan…you." Marie pointed over at Laura, "Have oral sex with Mr. Wheeler you're just gathering…information?"

"No Megan does that in exchange for Mr. Wheeler not giving Megan a curfew and the keys to his car." Laura said with a shrug and a smug smile, "It's meant to be used as a power move to show the audience that even though Megan is the one on her knees…" Laura whose hand was still on Sleez's pants suddenly stopped and clutched down on the man with enough force to cause him to yelp out in pain. "…She's always in control of any situation she's in."

As Laura took her hand completely off Sleez and she gave him a small mock pouty gesture of remorse. Marie couldn't help but wonder out loud. "Is that how you auditioned for this role?" she asked Laura, "on your knees, or did this so-called award-winning writer at least let you sit on the couch with him while you blew...?"

"Marie!"

Laura still smiled as she waved off Basil's cry of defense saying that the teenage girl had gone too far as the dark-haired beauty started back at the former star. "I can assure you that despite my playfulness with Sleez, I auditioned and performed legitimately in front of the producers and even Basil here."

"It's true Maire, Laura's been in and even starred in plays, independent films, and even did a few mini-shows in the U.K." Basil said seeming as if he'd fallen for De Mille's charms as well. "If she wanted to, she could be the next leading lady of Hollywood for years to come.

"But I won't," Laura said with a bored tone. "I have no interest in roles that don't fully use my talents not just as a pretty face but my range as a Shakespearean actor as well."

"She's not being hyperbolic by the way," Basil said to Laura's defense before Marie could make another snide remark. "Ms. De Mille trained under and performed in the Royal Shakespeare Company for a time."

"So, what are you saying that she not only has the body and the face but the talent to back it up?"

"And the age," Basil quickly looked like he wanted to back tract that statement from the look Laura had given him from that remark. "I mean she's over eighteen years old, among other things I'd like to think I know you well enough that you'd be uncomfortable performing nude scenes."

A small node and a small look of bashfulness was Marie's reply.

"And even if you were ok with performing like that, you're still underage. The studio itself would never green light this show if all the actors and actresses performing nude were eighteen or older."

"What about the others?" the redhead asked as she began to wonder about her costars. "Am I the only one getting recast or is everyone else getting the boot too?"

Basil took a deep breath as he sat his empty glass down. "No, they're not," he said with a sigh. "Rita's role as the best friend is going to change to become a sort of antagonist against Megan with her being toppled as the school's queen bee by Megan. And since Paul's over eighteen and agreed to do scenes in the buff he's going to stay on as Megan's love interest…well one of them anyway."

"What about Johnathan and Sandra?" Marie asked, referring to the older actors on the set who would have played her parents. "You think two actors from your generation who you've started in roles with before are going to be compatible with this?"

"Sandra's actually thrilled about this." Basil stated earnestly, "Since we're expanding the time format from a twenty-two-minute sitcom to a full-hour drama it means we can focus more on the characters besides Megan. And the fact that she plays a powerful woman in a position of government instead of just a typical housewife and mother managed to seal the deal for her."

"…Well, what about Johnathan then?"

Basil blinked, like a good long solid blink as if what he was about to state was beyond the obvious, "what do you think he said when he found out he gets to do love scenes with a woman like Laura here."

"…. ok dumb question," Marie hung her head in defeat as much as she respected Johnathan as an actor, the man was a gloried bloodhound for women. This was it, her one chance to star in the role of a lifetime was replaced with something that she wouldn't even let her future grandkids watch let alone any adult children she had as well. That was until something clicked in the back of her mind.

"Wait a minute I'm still under contract!" Marie said as she started to get her confidence back up. "The studio can't just fire me because they want someone a bit older and hotter to replace me with!"

Without even looking Laura's way Maire held up a finger and said, "Shut up," to get the dark-haired beauty off her back before she could retort as Marie continued to address Basil. "I can fight this."

"You could," Basil said as he rifled through his desk drawer again. "But you should know that your contract is with the studio itself and not the production of Hello, Megan."

"Really?" Megan asked with skepticism as she looked over her shoulder at Sleez, "You're keeping the title?"

"Yeah, it's catchy," the short man said honestly. "Except now instead of saying it like no duh, it's Hello, Megan, like what a guy would say helloooo nurse to a beautiful nurse with great gams!"

"Here it is," Basil got Marie's attention when he pulled out another script along with what looked like a safari hat. "I wasn't about to leave you high and dry like this Maire, not until I got you the role you were born to play!"

Taking the hat and script in hand Marie looked at the cover as she said its title out loud, "Marie Logan, the Animal Girl?"

"It's an educational program that we cooked up for our new kid's block!" Basil said with excitement, "You sign a new contract that I already sent to your agent, and you'll star in a half-hour show where you teach kids all about different animals in each episode!"

Marie placed the safari hat on the desk as she flipped through the script. "Because the show itself is educational the studio's getting a tax break from the government letting me fast-track this baby to a whole season already, no pilot!"

The anger, sorrow, and dread that Marie had in her heart were replaced by excitement about this new opportunity. Feeling that he was close to reeling the redhead into the new project, Basil gave Marie the closer. "Didn't you once tell me Kiddo that you wanted to work with animals after you finished school, well know you can help them by teaching a whole generation about conservationism and all that hippy dippy stuff you seemed all amped up about. Plus, every other episode that doesn't cover the animal of the day you'll spend at real-life animal sanctuaries all over the world to show what they're trying to protect from poachers or whatever!"

Tears of joy rolled down Marie's freckled cheeks as she couldn't help putting the hat on now. "Basil, I don't know what to say I…" a small part of her was fighting her, a small part that wanted to be not the host of a nature show but the star of a sitcom. "But Rita she's my best friend… I really…"

"Want to stand in her way," Basil asked getting a surprised look from Marie. "With the show's new format, Rita's been bumped up from a supporting character to the show's antagonist. Which sounds like she's playing a bad guy but given the naughty behavior our new Megan will be up to…"

Marie still looked heisted until Basil added one more thing, "She's not going to do the show if you're not ok with it." That managed to pull at Marie's heartstrings.

"Rita, Paul, and yes even Sandra and Johnathan all agreed to walk if you say no to this. And given that the studio wants us to start filming right away we don't have enough time to recast, they'll just shelve this project…but your new show will still be green-lit with you regardless of what you say you want the others to walk from Hello, Megan."

Marie closed her eyes and took a deep breath before opening them again and asked Basil the last concern she had about the new Hello, Megan, "This new premium cable show even though it's still set with Megan going to a high school no kids are going to see it, right?"

"Not unless their parents want them to," Basil replied honestly. "It's going to be late night on a Sunday with only customers who paid for the servers able to watch. I promise we're keeping this one in-house it'll only get syndicated to foreign markets on their premium networks."

Basil Karlo showed that he still got it from his time on the silver screen playing the evil criminal mastermind Clayface opposite Jonathan Lord's cursed gargoyle hero in the classic The Silver Blade, to bargains on the other side of the movie business as he shook Marie's hand in a deal being made.

"T...thank you, Mr. Karlo," Marie said sincerely her faith in the movie titan's words somewhat restored. "I promise I won't let you down, I'm going to my agent's office to sign the papers after I find Rita and Paul."

"You kids should celebrate together in style you can take my table down at the Lux and put whatever you order on my tab!" Basil said as he got up from his chair and walked around the desk. With a quick hug from the studio head Marie was out the door not so much as giving either Sleez or Laura another looks so much as a goodbye.

Basil let out a small laugh as he watched Marie shut the door behind her. "Ah, she's a good kid...appearance wise that is, cute face adorable freckles, and that hair of the girl next door all over that pretty little face and those legs…, if only she had the tits and the ass, she could have been the next big thing." Leaning against his desk and letting out a few more chuckles Basil pressed his intercom to relay a message to his receptionist. "Hold all my calls and any visitors I have for the next hour or so I'm going to be tied up in an important meeting."

"Oh, are you going to be the one tied up this time Basil?" Laura asked seductively as she strolled from her chair and pressed her body into Basil's.

"Wait, wait let me get a pen!" Sleez said as he pulled a notepad and something to write with from his pocket while he watched his star and his current boss begin to kiss passionately before breaking apart for some air. "Very nice I still need to work on the scene where Megan gets an A on her term paper by blackmailing her teacher with photos of her performing oral sex on him, you don't mind Basil, do you?"

Basil looked back at Sleez with a raised brow and a small glint in his eye as Laura ran her fingers down his chest unbuttoning his dress shirt while lowering her body down to his crotch level as well. "As long as you don't blackmail me with this to my wife later."

Both men pointed and laughed at one another as Laura stirred Basil's loins by rubbing her hand over his clothed genitals as she leaned in close enough to pull down his fly with her teeth. As Basil gently yet firmly placed his hands on the top of Laura's head, he said to the would-be star, "You know when I agreed to this position nobody said that being the head of the studio would mean I'd get a lot of head from my stars!"

Laura laughed at the joke, she always laughed at their jokes for her this wasn't as demeaning as most women in her position would make it out to be. If she wanted to she could have easily killed Karlo as she could swatting a fly, but for the time being she played the role of the sex-crazed starlet, she was good at playing whatever roles she need be for what she had in mind for this show would be bigger than giving the audience something to stroke their excitement towards. It would be the testing ground, something to bring into the light, encoded transmissions.


Mount Justice

…Year 2010

in the heart of a decommissioned secret cave Naruto Uzumaki marveled at his current surroundings. Dressed in a simple black t-shirt and orange shorts, the off-mission ninja ran his hand over his spiky blond locks as he tried his best to pay attention to what Batman was saying but was immediately caught by the masked hero.

"Naruto!" Batman the Dark Knight of Gotham City said the young ninja's same so swiftly that it managed to catch said ninja by surprise. "Do I have your full attention?"

Blinking his sky-blue eyes in rapid succession Naruto shook his head and slapped his cheeks to focus his mind better on the older nonpowered ninja's words. "Sorry Batman Sensei," Naruto said with a giant grin. "It's just that this cave is so advanced compared to all the technical do-dads of my world that it kind of feels like I've been brought to the future."

"I still haven't ruled that out," Kid Flash a young man with spiky red hair and a mouth as quick as his legs chimed in as he pulled out a small, padded notebook. "I still haven't ruled out that Naruto's either from an alternate future, an alternate past, a different version of our Earth all together, or that he's just an alien with a culture remarkably similar to that of a rural 1980s Japan!"

Aqualad the sidekick of Aquaman and a de facto knight of Atlantis had looked back at Kid Flash and being labeled the responsible one reprimanded Kid Flash before Batman could. "Perhaps we should let Batman continue and hold off on our assessment of where Naruto's homeland could be for the time being?"

Naruto with the same sly grin without warning snatched the notebook out of Kid Flash's hands and held it away from the slightly taller teenager and said, "Yeah Wally pay attention to Batman and stop making us look bad!" Naruto then turned around towards Superboy the stoic Genomorph clone of the Man of Steel himself as the ninja handed the muscular teenage clone the notepad trying to start a game of keep away.

"Hide this!"

Superboy just looked at Naruto not taking any hints of even holding the notebook as it slid down his chest and on the floor.

"…I said hide this!"

Naruto quickly picked it back up and handed it to the stoic young man who again didn't take it and let the bounded paper fall back down.

Batman let out an irritated sigh, one of many more to come as Aquaman part-time superhero and part-time King of the Seas placed his hand on Batman's shoulders and tapped it a few times in order to calm his masked friend down.

"What I believe Batman was saying was that Cadmus proves that the bad guys are getting smarter. Batman needs a team that can operate in the sly." Aquaman stated as Batman looked back at the young men in front of him.

"The six of you will be that team," Batman rumbled in his low grumpy voice.

Robin the Boy Wonder was the first to respond to their new mission statement "Cool!" the usually masked but this time sunglassed boy back track the number he just heard and asked his mentor and father figure, "Wait six?"

Batman nodded over past the boys towards the two sets of footsteps coming right behind them. Turning around and facing the Zeta Tube transporters they saw Martian Manhunter and a young girl approach them.

When the five teenage boys saw the girl, they all had different reactions Superboy was stoic as ever as was Aqualad if a little less so while Naruto, Kid Flash, and even Robin looked like their jaws had hit the floor from seeing the green-skinned vision of beauty.

"This is the Martian Manhunter's niece, Miss Martian." Batman introduced the young men to the vexing vixen as they all got a better look at her as she came into the light.

Mid-length red hair shaped in a wavy bob cut with a few locks covering one eye, an hourglass figure with breasts that could rival the size of any female member of the Justice League all concealed around a small black dress that's neckline dipped down enough to show off her ample cleavage and a short enough from its frilled hem that the boys got a decent look at her toned thighs the young Martian girl placed a confident hand on her hip while using her only visible eye to wink at her new teammates.

"Hey boys," the Martian girl said with a sultry voice that felt like verbal silk. "If you're gonna stand around and stare at me all day why not come in for a closer look?" she slowly lifted her finger and flexed it beckoning for the young men to come closer.

In a whirlwind of leaves, Naruto disappeared from the rest of his new friends to seemingly teleport right next to Miss Martian as he gently took the young woman's hand and greeted her like his last Sensei back home had taught him to, by kissing the back of her it.

"Hi, I'm Naruto Uzumaki!" the ninja said with a smile before it slipped into a confident smile, "Maybe we could go out for some ramen later, to get to know one another better, ya know?"

To everyone's surprise, mostly the other boys and especially Kid Flash's Miss Martian let out an excited squeal as she placed her hands on the sides of Naruto's face while using her thumbs to trace over the birthmarks on his cheeks. "Oh, Baby you're driving me wild with these cute whisker marks!"

"Welcome aboard!" Kid Flash shouted as he zipped right next to the two he turned around and excitingly started to unbuckle his pants, "I'm Kid Flash! And if you want to see sexy birthmarks, I have one in the shape of Florida right on my left…."

"Wow T.M.I Kid Dunce!" Robin said having walked over himself, "Why don't you let the new girl settle in before you try to take your pants off in front of her?"

Kid immediately realized what he was doing as he quickly tried to buckle his belt as he turned around. "Oh, haha sorry about that Miss Martian." He said with a nervous laugh.

"Don't be handsome," with her hand raised Miss M telepathically buckled Kid Flash's belt for him while invisibly pulling his whole body towards her as she leaned in and whispered in his ear. "Not the first time I made a guy want to take his pants off around me."

Her words made Kid Flash take a few steps back but with a wide smile and his cheeks turning the same shade of red as his own fiery hair. "…I'm liking this gig already!"

Robin shook his head and used his own brand of suave to try and charm the Martian girl as he held out his hand in greeting. "I'm Robin the Boy Wonder, you may have already heard of me?"

Miss Martian let out a small, "awe!" as she quickly wrapped her hands at the back of the young man's head and smashed his face into her pillowy chest. Treating him like a doll, Miss Martian then swung the young man's body around as she hugged him closely. "You're just as adorable as the transmissions Uncle J'onn sends to us back home!"

Naruto and Kid Flash glared at the young hero as Miss M finally released him from heaven, his sunglasses were a bit askew, and a goofy smile was all over his face. "…I still got it!"

After some words of encouragement from Aqualad he and Superboy walked over to the others as Robin waved the clone over. "S…Superboy come meet Miss M!" he said still under the Martian's spell.

Superboy walked over with his arms folded and his face like a stone the exact opposite of the soft expression Miss Martian was giving the clone. Like the others, she greeted him in a unique way by tracing the giant red house of El Shield on Superboy's black t-shirt.

"I love your shirt," Miss M said as she slowly trained her eyes up Superboy's broad torso and chest. "It really shows off those muscles of yours." Her fingers went up to his face as she gently ran her digit over Superboy's face. "I could get lost in that jawline of yours," the Martian girl slowly licked her lips as she let out a small moan. "I think I'm going to like it here."

Aqualad decided to stand a bit further away as he coughed into his fist while just giving the enchanting Martian a small wave as a greeting, "Today…. today is the day."


AN: So, I had this idea for a while now, how a single change in a character's past has a bigger outcome to their future even if it doesn't appear so significant for Miss M it's the retooled Hello, Megan, and for Naruto, it's going to be a carton of milk...that's right milk played a roll in how he's different you'll see next chapter.

This idea was something I was going to put in "Downtime or Fun with Shapeshifting!" but decided to spring it in another new fic instead because that story is supposed to be with more innocent yet still curious characters while the Naruto and M'gann here are cynical and more cruel to their friends and enemies alike. The base is what if Naruto and Miss Martian used their shapeshifting for personal gain primarily sexual gain. It's mostly them using it to get ahead in high school, missions, and later adult life too until they become the most popular students in school by making the others look bad their fellow students and enemies.

Just a warning here but the Naruto and M'gann in this fic are both assholes, maybe not evil but they're both assholes while they themselves are going to be a pairing they have an open/ swinging relationship based on the fact that they both know the other's going to cheat on the other eventually so might as well and let them get with whoever separate and together.
