A/N: Okay confession time. I am one reason away from abandoning this story and the reason is simple: reviews. I need reviews it inspires me to write and it helps me know what you the readers really think of my work. Hits are amazing and I want to express my gratitude to everyone single person who is following this story or even better chose this story as a favourite. It is because of you that I am writing this chapter and only you; but if I don't start getting reviews alongside those hits I will put this story up for adoption.

Also I want to say thank you to four special people: Brady420, batetrey, corbinskydragon1, Luraso. You guys are amazing for leaving your reviews on the last chapter sorry for the wait. I hope you like this chapter. Enjoy.

Chapter 11

My name is Uzumaki Naruto. I am the fastest shinobi alive. When I was a baby my parents were killed by something, impossible, that thing was then sealed inside me. Then a brutal fight with the one I call brother made me the impossible. To the outside world I am just the Kyuubi brat but secretly I use my speed to protect my village and one day I will save my brother and keep my promise to my teammate. I am the Flash.

Previously

Just then Naruto relaxed maybe he wasn't going crazy after all so he put on his signature wide and cocky smile

"I'm the Flash"

He may be relaxed but there was no way he was just going to reveal sensitive information to just any pretty face. This was also the reason why he had not gone to fetch Tayuya yet, he knew that he was in foreign territory and he was going to need some help but he needed to know that he could trust these people first.

"What does he mean he is the flash?" asked Barry "I'm the Flash"

Xxxx

"I got to say this whole thing is absolutely awesome" said Cisco "I mean now Barry can have his very own young apprentice like Arsenal is to the Arrow"

Now

Caitlin was so proud of her ability to mask her emotions while working or else the tension in the air would have definitely choked her. Iris was glaring at Tayuya who was trying to pretend like it wasn't scaring her and Naruto oblivious to it was making comments about Tayuya's silence and how amazing Iris was. This of course did not sit well with the redhead who was itching to put a knife in Naruto's mouth as soon as Iris went away.

Right now Caitlin knew that if a pin dropped the wrong way Tayuya will attack Naruto causing Iris to retaliate and her lab would probably be the first victim. She really hoped Cisco or Barry came here soon at least then she wouldn't have to deal with this tension alone. Almost as if summoned Barry, Ronnie and Joe came in with Cisco and the Professor right behind them.

"Yo so check it we were able to build up the 'translator'" said Cisco causing everyone to look at him like he had grown a second head

"Dude why would you name a device?" asked Ronnie

Cisco frowned "this is a highly advanced communication device that will allow a Japanese from another universe not only fluently understand English but allow him to speak English with the accent we have. It is a masterpiece and I will call it whatever the hell I want"

Naruto was not sure what was going on but it looked like the long-haired male had made something he had never seen before. It looked like earplugs and what looked like a small chip or something.

'Why would he bring those things here? From the looks of his friends it is a new device even to them meaning he made it just today.'

The conclusion made Naruto frown the only thing that had changed in these people's lives was the singularity that Iris had mentioned and him and Tayuya. The singularity was gone so that means that the device was designed with him and Tayuya in mind. So the only the question was what those things were for and he was not stupid enough to underestimate them because of their size.

While Naruto was at heart an optimist he was still a ninja and ninja did not just allow people do as they like because they seemed nice. Bringing Tayuya here was pushing it but he was not going to allow them to get hurt because he decided to trust the wrong people. Immediately he was reminded of Sasuke and he clenched his fists; Sasuke's betrayal nearly cost the lives of five people and the bastard nearly killed him. So no he will never make that mistake ever again,

"So let's see these babies at work" said Cisco but as soon as he approached Naruto he noticed the stance the kid was in; it was a battle stance. Knowing what the kid was capable of Cisco backed away and nervously turned to Iris

"Uh Iris could you ask Kid Flash why he looks ready to kill someone?"

Confused everyone turned to Naruto properly and saw that he indeed looked like someone who was gearing up for a fight, so Iris cautiously approached him.

"Naruto is everything okay?"

"Thanks for all your help with my friend but we will be leaving now"

"Why are you leaving?"

Naruto turned to glare at her "are you saying that I can't leave?"

Unlike everyone who was lost to their conversation Tayuya was not and she knew why Naruto was acting like this but what she did not know was why he was standing with her against Iris. She was not unaware of her temper and she knew that Naruto did not have any real reason to protect her. If it was Orochimaru he would have allowed the girly guy to use the strange tech on her just to see what happens. But Naruto was not doing that, he was looking out for himself and her too even though he did not have to.

Tayuya was not the only one feeling confused about Naruto's behaviour, Iris was lost too. She could not understand what would make Naruto look at her like that; it was like he thought she was kidnapping him or something. The glare was a far cry from the sweet, lovable blond that she knew: this was no kid, this was a warrior and the wrong move will set him off.

Taking a deep breath Iris knew that it was up to her to handle this situation and somehow convince him that they mean no harm otherwise he will leave here and possibly fall into the hands of someone who means harm. An image of Harrison Wells sprung to mind.

"You think that we want to take advantage of you and I can understand that. I also know that my word alone will not be enough to change your mind about us so I will give you something of equal value. I will place myself close to you and if something happens that you don't like feel free to use me as a hostage. I will not tell my friends anything so you will not have any resistance."

Naruto knew from the look in her eyes that she would not harm him but her friends were something else, after all Danzo was proof that someone could be a part of your home and be a traitor. He would be able to handle being betrayed by them but Tayuya already had enough of that. She needed to be safe and not spend the rest of her life watching her back.

"That thing what will it do?" asked Naruto

"It will help understand our language and be able to speak it as well. I don't know the full details of it since science was never my favourite subject"

Naruto's mouth twitched upwards "me neither"

Iris smiled when she heard that "So will you trust us?"

Naruto sighed "look I am used to people stabbing me in the back so please if that is what you are going to do let my friend go and take me"

Tayuya's jaw dropped 'He is sacrificing himself for me? Why would he-'

"She is one of my precious people and I want her to be safe"

Iris smiled sadly at the look in his eyes before a fire burned in them "I swear I will never betray you"

Stunned Naruto could only gape at her, the child in him that had betrayed by his villagers and his best friend, a part of him that had been dying somehow started to hope again. That maybe this time, this time he would not end up with a broken heart. This time he won't be betrayed he will be safe and his trust will not be broken.

"Your friend can do what you want"

"Cisco hand me the device sorry I mean the translator"

"Be careful when you are installing it. The chip needs to be at the very back of the mouth but not in a way that will block anything or get swallowed"

"I got it. Are you ready Naruto?"

"Yes ttebayo"

Meanwhile

Starling City exit

"Why are we even heading there?"

"Their city nearly imploded Oliver we need to make sure that they are okay"

Oliver groaned when he decided to leave Starling behind with Felicity; heading into a potential disaster zone was not on his list. As far as he was concerned Barry could take of care of himself and he most definitely did not need his help. But Felicity was adamant about checking in on her friend and he knew that when Felicity made her mind nothing will change it. It was one of the things he loved most about her; her almost naïve view had helped him protect the light that he still had inside of him.

'Oh well so long as I don't have to fight or anything then I supposed we could check in on Barry before we start our travels'

A/N: Okay this chapter is short because like I said this story is on its last leg so if you guys feel this story is a waste of time let me know. I love this story and more than anything I want to continue it but if no one appreciates it then what would be the point. So like always review and let me know what you think. Hits are great too.
