Now it's time for Lan to learn how to make doppelgangers. All of Gammatron's characters belong solely to him. Enjoy.

Training Part IV

"Ok, let's start today's lesson," Blademan said. "Wait. Where are Lan and Megaman at?"

"Over here," two voices said from behind everyone. They turned around to see Megaman and….. Megaman?

"Megaman, Rockman, where's Lan at?"

"Blademan, I'm Rockman," said Rockman, who had been out there with them already.

"But then who-"

"Kai, release," one the Megamans said, a cloud of smoke surrounding him. When the cloud was gone, Lan was standing in his place.

"Oh ho, you actually did the henge without needing help from Megaman. Good job, Lan. Just be careful when you use jutsu like that. You never know what will happen," Blademan said, surprised that Lan had actually accomplished the feat.

"Thanks. But it's kinda hard to hold it without Megaman's help. He can hold his for a longer amount of time than me. Anyways, let's learn about that kagewhatsit jutsu," Lan said.

"It's kagebunshin, Lan," Naruto said. "And it's pretty hard to do successfully. It took me a lot of practice."

"Yeah, but it shouldn't take me that long with Blademan's knowledge and the combination of Megaman's, mine, and Blademan's chakra, right," Lan asked, now in Blade Soul cross fusion.

"Shut up." Naruto crossed his fingers, two on each hand, to make a plus sign. "Kagebunshin no jutsu: Art of the Doppelganger." There were three clouds of smoke that appeared and when they disappeared, there were three more Narutos, perfect copies of the original. "It makes it easier if you imagine the copies. Just be sure you get the sign right. And if you can get it within three tries, I'll teach you a jutsu that Kyuubi taught me with the shadow clones," Naruto said, a coy smile on his face.

"Naruto, you don't mean…." Kyuubi said. "You do, don't you?" Naruto nodded. "You're gonna scar the poor kid for life if you do that."

"No, I won't. besides, I'm sure he can handle it. Now then, Lan, you try to get it done."

"No problem," Lan said, making the plus sign. "Kagebunshin no jutsu." There was only one cloud of smoke and when it disappeared, there was a very pale clone of Lan on the ground, his armor slightly transparent, laying on the ground, passed out. "………. Damn."

"Don't worry," Naruto said. "Mine were the same way at first. And besides, you still have two tries."

"Ok, ok. Again," Lan said, once again making the plus sign. "Kagebunshin no jutsu." Another cloud of smoke appeared and this time, the clone was at least sitting up and the color was the same. However, the clone was still passed out and fell over on its side and disappeared with a BOOMF and a cloud of smoke. "Damn it. Ok, once more."

"This is your last chance," Naruto said. "You at least need to have the thing standing up and awake. Bonus points if you can even get it to talk."

"Could ya stop pressuring me," Lan asked as he signed once more. "Kagebunshin no jutsu." This time, instead of one cloud, there two and when both disappeared, there were two clones, both standing upright and awake.

"He did it," one clone said.

"Pay up," the other finished. And with that they both disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

"Damn it. Maybe I shouldn't have promised to show him that jutsu," Naruto said.

"Good job, shorty," Kyuubi said, forgetting that Naruto and Shinobi had a very severe case of Napoleonic Disorder. When he realized his mistake, he simply said, "Shit," and began to run.

"GET BACK YOU HERE, DAMN YOU," Naruto and Shinobi yelled giving chase, Shinobi with a strange looking launcher replacing his left hand and arm, which, for some strange reason, was currently shooting kitchen sinks and various kitchen utensils as well as kunai at Kyuubi.

"What's up with Shinobi's buster," Lan asked.

"He doesn't really call it anything," Sasuke answered. "But it can shoot any weapon you could want to use."

"And that's why it's firing sinks and kitchen items?"

"Yep."

"Ok. And why do they react so much to the word s-" Lan was cut off by Sasuke's hand over his mouth.

"Don't say that word or anything like it. They have an extremely severe case of Napoleonic Disorder."

"What's that?"

It's where a person is sensitive about their height, Megaman explained to his brother.

"Oh,ok. So, do we just wait for them to come back or get tired?"

"Just get comfortable," Sasuke said. "This could be a while."

***

Kyuubi was currently trying to bandage some cuts and bruises along his body while Naruto was farther in the woods showing Lan the Ninja Centerfold. "Frigga, frakka, damn kids," Kyuubi was muttering under his breath as he applied alcohol to his cuts. Lan and Naruto finally came out of the woods, Lan twitching a little from watching the jutsu repeatedly.

"I'm probably scarred for life because of you," Lan said.

"Get over it," Naruto said. "I'm not the one who decided to actually pass the doppelganger test in three turns."

"Shut up. Hey, we've still got a bit of daylight left," Lan said. "Are there any other jutsu I can learn before the end of the day."

"I can teach you one of my fire jutsu," Sasuke offered. "It isn't all that hard to be honest. Just do what I do." Sasuke began signing, ending with his hands folded together with his index and middle finger on each hand held up and holding them there. "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu." He took in a deep breath and then released it, fire shooting from his mouth, burning down some vegetation.

"Shit!" Lan said, surprised at the jutsu.

"Now you try. The most important part is to take a deep breath and keep your concentration on keeping the flames steady." Sasuke stepped back to give Lan some room.

"What are the odds of me getting it right the first time?"

"Pretty high, since you have the help of two more people."

"Ok. Here goes nothing," Lan said, signing and ending with the same position Sasuke had ended on. "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu." Lan took in as big a breath as he could and let it out. He successfully breathed the fire out and burned some vegetation, but couldn't keep it up as long as Sasuke.

"Well done. Is there anything you could compare that to," Sasuke asked.

It felt kind of like when I use Beast Breath in Beast Out with Gregar, Megaman answered. But just a little stronger.

"Well, I'd call this a successful day," Blademan said. "You've learned not one,not two, but three jutsu in one day and successfully used henge without the cross fusion. Perhaps we should teach you summoning jutsu tomorrow."

Like I said, I was really bored. All of Gammatron's characters belong solely to Gammatron. Please review.
