I don't own DC or Naruto

Welcome to Happy Harbor

"Achoo!" Sasuke sneezed loudly sending spit flying out in front of him as he moved to brush the fallen leaf off his nose, "This is stupid," he muttered opening his eyes and glaring at Naruto whom sat across from him rubbing the spit from his face.

"It took months of meditation and perfect chakra control to master the Rasenshuriken completely; before that usage of that technique was slowly degrading my chakra points," Naruto opened his eyes and looked up at the trees as they dropped bright green leaves into the gentle breeze around them, "I was losing my ability to manipulate chakra, if you want to avoid that fate you need to learn to harness your chakra perfectly."

Sasuke sighed and laid back into the grass looking up at the clear blue sky and the tip of the massive mountain they meditated outside of, "I know I need to but, I've had pretty good chakra control my entire life, child-prodigy remember?"

"Pretty good isn't good enough," Naruto said as he propped his chin up on his fist, "Madara would dismantle you if you tried fighting him like this."

"Says you," Sasuke sat up and looked at his hands through both of his insanely powerful eyes, "It's such a bother having this Rinnegan all the time…" The entire world had sharp detail and for miles he could see blue-splotches of every person in the city in front of them, thousands of tiny little chakra signatures but, the Rinnegan could see them all through any solid surface.

Naruto rubbed his chin for a moment and scratched his bare chest, "Sasuke," he announced, "You can deactivate the Sharingan like any other Uchiha and Madara could do the same with his Rinnegan; Why can't you just turn your eye back to normal?"

Sasuke paused, "I tried once or twice but, I couldn't even get it to shift back into a Sharingan; this Rinnegan is a blessing from the Sage which makes it way more powerful than Madara's. Probably harder to control too."

"Yea, I bet you getting a more powerful Rinnegan pissed him off to no end!" Naruto sighed loudly turning his head back to Sasuke, "Maybe this is perfect," he said standing up and grabbing his shirt a nearby branch.

"How is that perfect? I'm still not stronger than him."

"Not that, you'll never touch him in this condition; I'm talking about your eye," he slipped his orange hoodie over his head and straightened out once it covered him, "I'll teach you the full method to creating a Rasenshuriken once you can make that Rinnegan turn back to normal."

"But, I don't even know if that's possible," He responded standing up with his hands out trying to reason.

"Won't know till you try," he said with a smile patting Sasuke on the shoulder, "It'll provide perfect chakra control training and you'll be able to walk around in public without that stupid eye-patch."

Sasuke rubbed his neck, "I like the eye-patch," he muttered.

Naruto began walking back towards the entrance to the cave when he turned and raised a brow towards his partner, "Why? It limits perception, you have to turn to see things properly, and it looks terrible."

"Barbara gave it to me," he sighed as he followed Naruto up the hills, "A few days after I got here, it was a gift."

Naruto placed his hands behind his head as he walked taking a deep breath of fresh mountain air, "I've never seen you this attached to anyone; what changed?"

"My outlook," he started, "When I got here I thought I'd never get the chance to leave and when I looked back on how I spent my life;" he sighed deeply and averted his eyes from Naruto's, "I didn't like the way I spent it; it's been hard but, I'm trying to adjust my attitude otherwise I'll be constantly miserable."

Naruto chuckled loudly which prompted him to cover his mouth, "I wanted to hear you say that for years and now that I have it just feels strange and out of character for you."

They approached the entrance just as they saw Red Tornado flying down towards it as well, "When should we tell them about Madara?"

"I need to do more recon," he muttered as he narrowed his eye, "We need to do more recon."

Red Tornado's twister hit the ground and slowly dispersed lowering him to a gentle landing as the grass beneath him slowly opened up to reveal a secret entrance into the cave; from inside ran Dick, Wally, Kaldur, M'gaan, Superboy, and Barbara meeting Tornado as he approached the opening.

Barbara spotted Naruto and Sasuke approaching the team as Red Tornado looked around, "Is there a reason you intercepted me outside of the cave?" he spoke in a monotone robotic voice.

Kaldur spoke up first with a smile, "We were hoping you had a mission for us."

Red Tornado looked passed them and walked forwards, "Mission assignments are the Batman's responsibility."

Sasuke held his hands behind his head as Dick raised his hands in exasperation, "But, it's been over a week and nothing-!"

"You'll be tested soon enough," the android held his hand up silencing Dick immediately, "For the time being simply enjoy each-others company."

Sasuke narrowed his eye and scoffed, "This team isn't a social club."

"No," he responded while putting a finger up, "But, I've been told social interaction is an important team-building exercise; Perhaps you can keep busy by familiarizing yourselves with the cave," he walked passed them and into the hollowed-out mountain as the team was stupefied by his response.

"Keep busy," Wally mocked lightly punching Dick's arm.

"Does he think we're falling for this?" Dick asked aloud raising his arms in the direction of the rest of his teammates.

M'gaan went wide eyed with a bright smile, "Oh! Oh! I'll find out," She shouted in a whisper and narrowed her eyes pressing her finger tips up against her temples, focusing on Red Tornado as he walked further into the cave.

"Recognized: Red Tornado A16," the computer announced as it scanned Tornado's entry.

M'gaan sighed and looked back at the teen slightly dismayed, "I-I'm sorry, I forgot he's a machine, Inorganic, I cannot read his mind," she looked down as Naruto approached and placed his comforting hand on her shoulder.

"Nice try though," Wally stated stepping closer and flicking Naruto's hand away jokingly, "So, you uh know what I'm thinking right now?"

Naruto scoffed, "We all know what you're thinking now," Dick smacked the speedster lightly upside the head and folded his arms focusing on the real issue.

"And now we tour the clubhouse, wahoo," Sasuke muttered as he moved his hands from behind his head down into his pockets; Barbara stepped up next to him locking her arm with his own suddenly.

"Don't get your kunai in a bunch, I'm sure learning about the cave's layout will help with future missions somehow," They all looked back at Barbara whom brushed a red lock of hair behind her ear, "I guess being optimistic isn't popular around here either, I miss the Bat-cave."

Kaldur sighed and brushed his thin head of hair back, "Well, M'gaan and Superboy take residence in the cave, perhaps they could 'play tour guide'?"

M'gaan jumped for joy and Superboy sneered, "I'd love to!" She shouted as Superboy simply shoved his hands in his brown overcoat looking away from her and the team.

"Don't look at me," he muttered.

"We won't," Wally stated quickly looking back at M'gaan, "Private tour sounds much more fun," He narrowed his eyes causing the Martian girl to raise a brow in confusion.

Naruto squinted and folded his arms across his chest, "She never said private."

Sasuke ripped his arm from Barbara's hold to rub the bridge between his eyes, already feeling the headache setting in, "Team building; we'll all go."

M'gaan nodded and turned around towards the entrance, "So," she started as Wally followed suit only to be pulled back by Dick playfully, "This would be our front door," she announced waving out at the mountain around them as they walked through the entrance and into the cave.

…

Exiting the mountain on its opposite end, she waved out at the ocean below the Cliffside, "And this would be the back; the cave is actually the entire Mountain!"

…

They made their way into the cave's main hall inside the mountain, small lakes surrounded them along with teleporter tubes and massive steel beams stretching along the sides of the mountain up towards the ceiling, "It was hollowed out and reinforced by Green Lantern and Superman in the early days of the League," Wally noted.

"Then why abandon it for the Hall of Justice?" Superboy asked seeming actually interested for the first time through-out the tour.

Kaldur folded his arms, "The Cave's secret location was compromised…"

"So, they traded it in for a tourist trap? Yea, that makes sense." Barbara chided sarcastically.

"If the villains already know about the cave, we must be on constant alert!" M'gaan noted aloud taking a serious glare around the Cave.

Dick grabbed hold of M'gaan's hand with a comforting smile, "The bad guys know we know they know about the place so, they'd never think to look here."

M'gaan just raised a brow in serious confusion, "Uh…"

Naruto chuckled, "I think he means we're hiding in plain sight; if we know the villains know about this place, they'd never think us to occupy it again."

"Ah," She said with a smile towards Naruto, "That's much… clearer."

Sasuke took a quick inhale through his nose, "I smell smoke," he deadpanned turning to look around for a moment before M'gaan squealed loudly like a little girl drawing his attention back.

"My cookies!" She shouted levitating into the air and darting towards the kitchen. Landing gently on the ground besides the oven she used her telekinesis to open it and pulled out the smoking hot pan with charred pieces of cookie dough hardened to a crust, the smoke floating off of them was black and filled the room suddenly as the others entered having to fan the smoke from their faces.

"Sorry! Sorry!" M'gaan repeated as she placed the pan gently on the countertop in front of her teammates, "I was trying out Grandma Jones' recipe from episode 7 of… never mind."

Naruto leaned against the counter and chuckled, "I'm sure they would have tasted great; he doesn't seem to mind," he jabbed his thumb towards Wally who bit into a charred hockey-puck colored cookie leaking crumbs from the corner of his mouth.

"What? I have a serious metabolism," he mumbled gulping down chunks of cookie rocks.

"I'll make more?" M'gaan asked more confused than actually grateful for his liking her cooking; Kaldur smiled and stepped forwards.

"It was sweet of you to make any."

"Thanks, Aqualad, that means a lot," she held her hands behind her back and looked away sheepishly.

"We're off duty, call me Kaldur'ahm or Kaldur for short."

"I'm Wally," the speedster interrupted, "See? I already trust you with my secret I.D. unlike Mr. dark glasses over here," he motioned towards Dick whom shrugged his shoulders in response.

Barbara rolled her eyes, "Batman has forbidden us from telling anyone our real names… except Sasuke because he doesn't care what Batman says."

"Preach," Sasuke mumbled in a stoic tone as he folded his arms, looking away unimpressed.

"Mines no secret!" M'gaan announced, "It's M'gaan M'orrz but, you can call me Megan… it's an Earth name, and I'm on Earth now…"

"Well if we're all putting names to faces I don't wanna be left out," the blonde Hokage smiled brightly, "I'm Uzumaki Naruto!"

"Nice to meet you, Uzumaki," M'gaan mumbled blushing slightly as she smiled towards him, but, winced as Sasuke lightly slapped Naruto over the head.

"The sur-name goes last on this Earth; to you guys his name would be Naruto Uzumaki," Sasuke shoved his hands back in his pockets and looked away from them, "I'm Sasuke Uchiha."

Naruto chuckled and rubbed his neck nervously playing off his mistake, "Whatever, same difference."

At this point Superboy sighed and turned to the exit, leaving the room promptly but, as he left he felt a sudden tickle in his forehead or rather his mind itself, 'Don't worry Superboy.' Superboy turned with a distressed grunt, tensing up all over his body.

'We'll find you a human name too,' M'gaan's voice softly rang through the Kryptonian's head as he clutched it in distress waving his hands at her.

"Get out of my head!" He shouted in anger nearly tearing a chunk of the stove off as he gripped it.

Just as he screamed this the others looked confused, nothing had happened and yet, Superboy was still upset, 'I don't understand,' this time they understood, feeling the slight tingle in each of their minds, 'Everyone communicates telepathically on Mars?'

They gripped their heads in mild discomfort, groaning at the voice echoing through their minds and speaking over their own thoughts, 'M'gaan,' suddenly the young Martian felt a hand on her forearm bringing it up into the air. She turned her head to see Sasuke unaffected by the telepathic tampering but, she could see in his one visible eye was now crimson red with the scientific symbol for an atom over lapped by a pin-wheel like design, 'here on Earth, talking to someone through telepathy can be viewed as disrespectful and even offensive; a lot of people here see it as an invasion of privacy.'

She slowly lowered her arm as Sasuke loosened his grip and closed his one eye allowing it to shift back into its onyx black native color; M'gaan looked around for a moment at the confused team still staring at her, "I'm so sorry, I didn't… I didn't know that thoughts were supposed to be private here on Earth."

Wally shook his head and regained his smirk, "Plus, Supsey here has a little problem telepaths ever since the G-Gnomes-"

Superboy proceeded to punch the wall creating a relatively small dent in the metal, "I… I didn't mean to-"

"Just. Stay. Out. Of. My. Head." Superboy pointed at M'gaan before huffing once more and turning to leave the room; he sat on the lime green couch some feet away staring at a TV which was powered off.

They all sat in silence for a moment, pondering what had just happened but, didn't have any comments to add until M'gaan had another idea that caused her facial expression to light up like a Christmas tree, "Oh, I have an idea!" She shouted levitating into the air and flying through the hall out of sight.

Naruto shrugged and began walking in the direction she had flown off in followed by the rest of the group aside from Aqualad whom looked at Superboy sitting on the couch staring at the dark TV, "Are you coming?"

"No!" He snarled before looking down at the ground and closing his eyes, he stood and rounded the corner causing Kaldur to flash a short smile in return.

…

The elevator they all occupied dinged loudly signifying them reaching the ground level of the hanger-deck, "It's my Martian Bio-Ship!"

Barbara raised a brow, "A Martian what?"

They approached a large empty space in the hanger where a small red pod the size of a station-wagon sat in the center; Wally turned his head gazing at it with confusion, "Cute. Not aerodynamic but, cute," he stuffed his hands in his pockets and M'gaan giggled and motioned towards it.

"It's at rest silly," she noted, "Here, I'll wake it up!" With a wave of her hand it hummed to life morphing much like herself and her uncle, growing two wings on either side long enough to stretch passed its rear and front side, black windows in its center which had now become longer and pointed.

"Wow," Naruto gawked as he rubbed the back of his neck, "And I thought this world was more advanced than our world, sheesh Mars is insane!"

M'gaan smiled at his comment, holding her hands behind her back like a flattered school-girl, with her mental-prowess she lifted the ship into the air and rotated it 360 degrees until the main hatch faced them, opening up and extending a bridge for them to enter.

She walked towards it before turning around to face them with a coy smile, "Are you coming?" she asked confidently as everyone slowly gave each other confused looks and began walking towards the ship.

It's inside was definitely larger than its outside with hard, metal like floors but soft flesh like walls and ceiling; the center of the room melded into some sort of control console and 7 seats morphed up from the floor forming perfect chairs.

Naruto looked around and squinted, his Sharingan was closed but, something still felt different, "It feels odd being in here; almost like that canyon where I first learned to summon Gamabunta," he put a finger to his chin trying to figure it out when he heard a sigh from Sasuke.

"That's because it's alive," he deadpanned looking around with his now active Sharingan, "I can see it's faint chakra signature."

Barbara raised a brow and put a hand on the wall, "It's alive? Can It talk?"

Kaldur, "Alive doesn't necessarily mean conscious," he sat down in one of the chairs to the far right and looked out the window towards the hanger entrance, "Although a living plane is definitely how I was expecting my day to go."

"Well, strap in for launch," M'gaan said casually sitting at the helm of the ship as the others followed suit sitting down as organic seat-belts wrapped themselves around their waists.

"Red Tornado please open the bay doors," she announced as the mountainous cave wall opened up revealing they were at the base of the structure, slowly rolling forwards before levitating and rocketing out of the hanger.

"Incredible!" Dick announced looking out the window at the ground thousands of feet below them.

"It's beautiful," Barbara said pressing her face up against the glass, "It's like having a private jet only less booze and weed!"

They all turned to her in dead silence, the only sound being the gliding of the ship against the wind and some slight turbulence, after several minutes Sasuke pondered, "So what's weed?"

"Nothing!" Barbara blurted, "Just… nothing…"

While that was going on, Kaldur noticed Superboy's grim expression and leaned over, "I don't have psychic powers but, I can tell what you're thinking."

The half Kryptonian glanced over as Kaldur continued, "You over reacted and you don't know how to apologize," Superboy glanced back at M'gaan and then back to Kaldur again.

"I didn't mean to yell, I'm just messed up you know?"

Naruto sighed, "Too well," he interrupted sitting just a few feet from them, "Do you like her?" he asked.

"I don't have anything against her but, the sudden mind talking thing got me-"

"Heat of the moment, we get it," Kaldur smiled in response, "Just say sorry."

Superboy glanced once more at M'gaan whom didn't notice him and stayed silent looking back out the front window at the skyline as it zoomed past them at high speeds.

Sasuke propped his hand up with his fist looking out at the clouds around them as they flew through them, Barbara nudged him in the shoulder raising her brow, "You of all people aren't more amazed at this?" she asked as he rolled his eye over to look over at her.

"I've flown before a few times, not by living flying machine but, it's relatively the same," he kept his stoic expression the entire time as M'gaan looked down in disappointment.

"He'll come around," Sasuke noted as M'gaan looked up quickly realizing that he noticed that she was upset and further understood the reason why.

She decided not to question the 'how' and decided to accept his understanding instead, "He doesn't seem to like me very much," she looked down at the control panel allowing her bangs to cover her eyes.

"He's an anger fueled clone who doesn't even know why he exists," Barbara pointed out, "Honestly he's probably slightly angry at everyone, I'm not psyche major but, time heals all wounds even the mental ones."

Wally chuckled, "But, if you ever get tired of angry Kryptonian's, handsome speedsters are always an option," he winked playfully at her causing her to cringe slightly.

Sasuke breathed, looking over at M'gaan and giving her a very small smile, "I was once where he is; he'll come around in time."

Wally picked his teeth and looked out the window, "You all remember he has super hearing, right?"

They all turned and inspected the back of his head as he appeared to not have heard them. Naruto felt the mood change as the ship was suddenly a chamber of silence flying through the air at near super-sonic speeds, he turned around in his chair and smiled brightly, "Hey, how about some Martian shape-shifting?"

M'gaan flashed a grin of her own in response, "Sure," She announced as the ship unfastened her belt and she stood walking to the center of the ship amongst all the chairs. Her skin tone changed first becoming Caucasian then her clothes melded with her as did her hair and eyes; soon she was dressed completely in the armor and costume of Robin only, she was still a 'she' or she didn't manage to change her gender. She did a quick twirl showing off her new appearance and Naruto whistled, "Nice job, you look exactly like him."

Dick chuckled for a moment, "Well, not exactly like me, you know you won't be fooling anyone with those on you?" He motioned to her chest getting a distressed look from his counterpart.

She looked down at her chest for a moment and smiled again, "I haven't gotten sex change down yet; I'm still new to most of my powers," She closed her eyes and her appearances shifted just as it did before only now she had reverted back into her marron crop top, white undershirt and red mini-skirt.

Kaldur raised a brow, "And your clothes?"

She gripped the hem of her crop top and shifted her head, "They're organic like the ship; they respond to my mental commands."

"Oh-Oh," Wally shouted raising his hand with excitement, "Can you do that 'ghosting through walls' thing Manhunter does?"

M'gaan lost her smile and looked away, "Density shifting? No way I'm nowhere near that level of development," she looked down in depression for a moment before Barbara intervened.

"Flash can vibrate his molecules right through a wall, when Kid tries it? Bloody nose!" She giggled along with M'gaan as Wally's eyes shot open folding his arms.

"Dude!"

"Here's something I can do!" As she spoke the outside of ship began to melt into its surroundings as it became a clear body moving through the air hiding it and its passengers, "Camouflage mode," she hummed.

"Red Tornado to Miss Martian," the stoic androids voice came over the communications panel nearest to M'gaan, "An emergency alert has gone off at Happy Harbor Power Plant, I suggest you investigate. Covertly."

"Received," M'gaan responded, "Adjusting course."

"Ugh, Tornado is keeping us busy again," Dick spat as he propped his chin up on his fist, "Exactly what we needed."

Sasuke scoffed, "Are you kidding?" he looked over at Dick with a stoic frown as he pulled a kunai from his pocket and spun it between his fingers, "I've been looking to beat something up."

Barbara chuckled, "You keep kunai in your pockets? Even when not in costume?"

"I see you have your utility belt retracted and in your pocket," he noted as the Bio-Ship began its decent on the power plant below.

"C-Can you see through my clothes?" She asked covering her chest with her arms as a blush rose to the surface of her cheeks; Sasuke didn't even take a second look before shrugging.

"Probably, I never checked," he watched the ground as it approached him but, Superboy spoke up before they landed.

"Guys," he announced as he gripped his arm-rest, "I think I know what caused the emergency alert," he stared out the window as a massive tornado blew through the parking lot over turning trucks and cars with it's intense wind-speeds.

Naruto shouted, "Brace for impact!" the tornado quickly slammed into the Bio-Ship pulling it with and forcing it to the ground in a crash landing; the ship dug a trench into the ground with its collapsing body slamming into a tree and deactivating the Camo-Mode.

The hatch they had entered from spat them out like a dog with something poisounus in its mouth; "The Bio-Ship is fine, just dizzy."

"Wow," Sasuke narrowed his eyes at the tornado as it dissipated into nothingness, "A Martian ship that gets air-sick, is anyone else seeing the irony?"

"I do," Naruto said as he looked back to Sasuke, "But, I could see the wind spinning in that tornado."

"Me too," Sasuke agreed as they looked towards the building that had originally set off the emergency alarm.

"What are they talking about?" Kaldur asked dumbfounded.

"Someone was controlling that tornado," Superboy clarified and squinted, "My X-ray vision sees someone inside the power plant!"

Sasuke and Naruto shared a look before shrugging, "We don't see any chakra signatures but, what the hell."

They all approached the entrance which was left wide open after the workers ran from the building like stampeding elephants; the peered inside the darkened building, "Ready for some recon, Robin?" Sasuke asked pulling spinning his kunai, "Robin?"

A teenage boys giggling echoed through the building as grappling hooks could be heard deploying throughout, "I hate that," Sasuke muttered as the boy-wonder came flying back towards them hitting the wall and falling to the ground dropping two shuriken with him.

From the darkness stepped a 7-foot-tall metallic man with black and red designs, blue tubing extending from his elbows to his back, and a brown scarf wrapped around his neck. Wind pressure blew down from the palm of his hands creating intense friction and heat, Superboy leaped and landed in between Robin and the new villain, "Who's your new friend?" the half-Kryptonian asked coyly.

Robin rubbed his lumbar and stood for a moment, "Didn't catch his name but, he plays kinda rough!"

Superboy leaped at the android only to get spun around by a tunnel of wind and tossed through the side wall of the building, "Please excuse my lack of manners; you may address me as Mr. Twister."

"Lame," Naruto shouted opening his Sharingan and observing his enemy closely, "Weak points, here, here and here," he pointed out the android's joints to Sasuke whom formed a Chidori in his hands extending down and carving into the cement floor.

He dashed towards his opponent just as Barbara and Kaldur jumped him from behind; Mr. Twister used his aerokinetic power to spin both of them into Sasuke. Not wanting to slice them in two, Sasuke released his Chidori as the two slammed him into the ground.

"Fine, I'll do it myself," Naruto formed a Rasengan in his hands and dashed towards the android was surprised when a bolt of lightning struck his chest and sent him through the wall next to the entrance and back into the parking lot.

Wally pulled his goggles over his eyes and nodded towards M'gaan whom lifted herself into the air and flew above the battle; the speedster ran towards Twister dashing around him at super-sonic speeds to distract as a massive engine from the power plant fell down from above towards him. Twister chuckled before using his insane wind power to lift the several metric-ton weighing engine and spinning it launching into a recovering Superboy knocking him down once again. Wally used his momentum to lift his feet in the air and slam both his feet into the android which did absolutely nothing as Twister wrapped his one hand around both Kid's legs and tossed him out the hole he made in the wall with Superboy's body.

Sasuke rubbed his head for a moment, "Damn," he mumbled ripping his eye patch off and opening his Rinnegan, "Nah, this isn't worth the chakra," he made a quick hand sign before biting his thumb with a small drop of blood hitting the ground below him. In a small explosion of white smoke a silver Kusanagi appeared and was immediately enveloped by blue electricity; Naruto walked through the door cracking his neck as the pain subsided quickly, "Are we finishing this or what?"

"You think you can just end it like that?" Barbara snapped her fingers for emphasis as Naruto and Sasuke gave each other a look of optimism.

"Hey," Naruto said putting a finger in Barbara's face, "We gave you guys your turn, so we'll take ours; ready Sasuke?"

"Ready," Sasuke left his fist outstretched towards Naruto whom saw this and was dumbfounded, the young Hokage had always seen fist-bumping as a true sign of friendship but, Sasuke had never actually done it with him before or at least he'd never been the one to initiate the bump himself, "What're you waiting for?"

"Sorry," Naruto said as he extended his balled up fist, tapping Sasuke's causing them both to smirk slightly; Sasuke dashed forwards at insane speeds so fast that Twister only saw after-images of the shinobi appearing inbetween Naruto and himself.

"W-What?" The android stuttered before the blade quickly sliced 5 different times in different directions, the Uchiha used the androids head as a stepping stool to launch himself into the air, back flipping to the ground landing perfectly. Naruto had now perfectly formed the Rasengan with spinning blades of wind surrounding it, "Sage Art: Rasenshuriken!"

The arms and legs of the android came toppling apart just as the Rasenshuriken hit and detonated with the force enough to carve away the entire surrounding city in one small dome of white chakra still inside the building. Chunks of metal flew across the room and fell all around them, Superboy walked in through the hole he'd been tossed through, Wally sped to a halt in front of them removing his goggles to confirm what he saw as true, Kaldur and Barbara stood dumbfounded besides them as Robin returned still limping slightly.

"So, that's that," Wally stated dusting his hands off casually, "Good work, team."

Superboy huffed, "I didn't get to punch anything; Mostly because someone threw an engine at me!" he looked over at M'gaan as did everyone else.

"I was only trying to-"

"To give him a weapon to hit us with, thanks for that!" Superboy shouted turning towards the Bio-Ship, everyone slowly followed aside from Naruto who put his hand on her shoulder causing her to look up into his eyes.

"If I did as well as you on my first mission, I'd have made it to Chunin level," he rubbed her shoulder slightly before walking off with the others leaving her to stare off at Sasuke with a blush.

"Um…"

"It was a compliment, just take it," He said as his blade disappeared in a puff of smoke, he walked off towards the Bio-Ship. M'gaan's frown turned into a blushing smile of wonder, 'He actually likes me!'

Everyone turned their heads back towards M'gaan with raised brows and Superboy nearly popped a blood vessel, "Nothing! I meant nothing! I didn't mean to I swe-"

'Red Tornado to team,' Their superior's monotonic voice came through their communicators in their ears, 'Good work, the authorities are on their way to clean up the scene, however; another emergency alarm has just been triggered at the Happy Harbor Soil Planet factory.'

Wally scoffed, "What? Someone's stealing soil?"

'Investigate further and then report back to the cave,' Red Tornado didn't bother with semantics and shut off communications as the team readied themselves. M'gaan tried to ignore what just happened and lifted the crashed Bio-Ship with her telekinesis spinning round to face them as the hatch opened up and extended its bridge, "The Soil Plant is just a few miles south of here; it should only take a few minutes to get there."

Wally sighed loudly, "Well, since you two took care of the last fight, why don't you do the same for this too? My neck is killing me."

"Even with a healing factor? My back won't heal for days," Dick complained as he rubbed his lower-back nearest to his lumbar.

Kaldur looked out the window at the soil plant below, "We will all go to investigate; we do not do what is easiest, we do what we have to."

"Inspirational," Naruto stated, "How's about Sasuke and I lead and you guys cover us?"

"What would you know about being a leader? I've been a part of a team for 3 years," Dick stated jabbing his thumb to his own chest, "If anyone should be leader it should be-"

"You? You're a year younger than me and I was on the same team, I shou-"

"Enough!" Sasuke shouted gathering his composure and standing up, "Naruto and I'll use our ocular Dojutsu to scope out the area, Wally covers the outer-circumference with his super-speed, M'gaan scans the minds of everyone inside to find out exactly what's going on, and Dick will cover her with Barbara. Superboy and Kaldur are with me, everyone got it?"

They all looked at one another scoffing and kicking invisible rocks, agreeing for the time being as the hatch opened spilling the team onto the grass outside the three-story soil factory; Wally dashed out without a word immediately going around the corner.

Naruto allowed his right eye to spin looking through the walls just as Sasuke did the same, "I count 5 hostiles and one with a weird chakra flow," Naruto squinted, "Wait, 6 hostiles."

"It's actually 7; you should practice with your Sharingan more often," he narrowed his own Sharingan at the building, "And that weird chakra flow almost looks like it's being suppressed purposefully."

Naruto and Sasuke both shared a knowing glance before looking down and laughing, "Nah!"

M'gaan levitated just two feet above the ground, focusing on the minds inside the building, "I don't know, you guys told me not to read minds anymore."

Naruto huffed, "No, No, it's cool if you do it to the bad-guys!"

"Cool?" She pondered, "Well ok then!" Both her eyes turned bright lime-green as she mentally prowled through the building, "That's strange."

Dick and Barbara had pulled out their utility belts and wrapped it around their torso's almost like an ammunitions belt, "What's weird?"

"The people inside, they aren't thinking of anything, it's like they're minds are clouded up," She noted, "All except for the one in the center, he's, he's," She narrowed her eyes trying to invade the targets mind but, screamed in pain suddenly. Shouting at the top of her lungs she collapsed to her knees causing everyone to turn their attention to her, Naruto dashed over, looking her up and down, her eyes were blank but open just unresponsive, "She's been put under Genjutsu." Naruto stated boldly, "And this is too powerful to be just anyone, it has to be…"

Sasuke formed a Rasengan in his hands blowing the wall down easily as Kaldur and Superboy followed him inside but, what they found wasn't at all what they expected. In the room was the workers of the factory dressed in uniform only, they were walking in a single-file line holding bags of soil and tossing it through what seemed to be some sort of unknown wormhole. Their eyes were red with some sort of black-tomoe pattern, obviously of the Sharingan, and in the center of the room was a man whom was now clapping at their arrival.

"Dān watashi wa watashi no kibarashi wa isogashī anata o tamotsudarou kitai shite imashita," the man wore crimson red armor with a black skintight jumpsuit underneath, his long raven black hair swung by his waist side and a giant fan like tool hung by a strap on his back; his eyes were the most notable as they were obviously both Sharingan's.

"M-Madara Uchiha," Sasuke stated boldly responding in English rather than Japanese like the man had just done, "How're you-"

"English? Really? I honestly prefer our native tongue to this tripe you call a language," Madara turned his back to them and folded his arms observing his workers continuing their soil dumping.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Sasuke asked loudly as Kaldur and Superboy shared equally confused looks with one another.

"I suppose you two have what some might call a 'history'?" Kaldur asked as Sasuke ignored him without a second thought.

"My business here is none of yours to be concerned with," he looked back and shooed them away with his hand in a mocking gesture, "Leave here before I get angry."

"Too late, let's do it!" Sasuke shouted, both Kaldur and Superboy readied themselves to fight but, they were both faced with a glare from their opponent. A glare that grew and grew until the entire room was one massive Sharingan spiral; it overwhelmed them both being covered in hate and anguish, they both collapsed to the ground behind Sasuke whom visibly sweat at the sight of his unconscious comrades.

"You can see through my Genjutsu; commendable but, not at all concerning," he stated turning around as the workers stepped through the portal with their bags of soil.

Barbara, Dick, and Wally stepped through the hole made by Sasuke and peered in the room where they found two out of three of their friends unconscious lying on the ground; they watched as Sasuke formed a Chidori and launched himself at Madara slicing through the air as the Uchiha bobbed and weaved with a smile dodging every swing of the chakra blade easily.

"Shinra Tensei," Sasuke knew the technique all too well, he felt the force of a thousand shinobi push him back through the air slamming into a wall stacked with hundreds of metal grounding rods each one slamming into him as they piled on top of him.

Barbara shouted, "Sasuke!" immediately she pulled out shuriken and launched it at Madara whom had turned his head back to the workers; he caught each one with his fingers without looking in her direction.

"I won't ask again nicely, my plan requires you humans to be alive but, I don't need all of you," He folded his arms and sighed as he heard footsteps, "Fine, I'll just have to."

"Watashi wa, anata wa mō kore o okonau koto wa dekimasen!" Madara turned to find Naruto in his Honored Sage Mode with his Mangekyou Sharingan activated and a massive truck sized orb in his hand, "Sage Art: Massive Rase-" Naruto choked as Madara caught him by the neck dispersing the orb completely; the ex-jinchuriki spat up blood as he was tossed aside all too easily slamming through the wall and into the Bio-Ship pushing said ship through the ground and knocking it over on its side.

"For the sake of our shared heritage, I'll allow you to live but, just know next time, Sasuke, I will take your power for my own and I will show no mercy," Madara scoffed looking over at the three still standing frozen in fear at the doorway that Sasuke created earlier, "When he wakes up, give him that message, much obliged," He allowed the last worker to step through the portal and then stepped through himself, allowing it to close behind him slowly.

Wally gasped as the portal closed falling to his knees as Barbara and Dick had to support themselves on the jagged concrete walls, "What in the actual living fuck was that thing?"

"What? More like who?" Dick and Barbara turned to see Sasuke still unconscious underneath a massive pile of iron pipes.

"Just who in the hell is Madara Uchiha?"

…

And that's it for this chapter, like I said, I'm putting a lot of effort into this story, it's not going to have short chapters usually so it takes longer to write. Just a few things.

"Dān watashi wa watashi no kibarashi wa isogashī anata o tamotsudarou kitai shite imashita"

Translation: "Darn, I thought my distraction would keep you busy"

"Watashi wa, anata wa mō kore o okonau koto wa dekimasen"

Translation: "I won't let you do this anymore!"

I'm trying to make this as good as possible but, also as accurate as possible, things are a little confusing now but, you'll understand it all in due time.

Stay Awesome Gotham!
