Are you satisfied?
Just open your eyes
You can see the light
Across this new borderline
The silhouettes of Naruto's team pass by a clouded fog, Logan lighting a cigar, Mando with Grogu on his shoulder, Stitch laughing, Tifa punching the air, Lulu casting a spell, Helen throwing a kick, and finally Garnet holding her hands together praying. Once the fog clears we see Naruto looking up to the sky holding out his hand towards the sky grasping his hand as if grasping the sun.
Uchinomesareta Nageki no Hate de
Aragai tsuzuketeru Kanjō
The group is sitting down enjoying a meal, Tifa and Helen scolding Stitch with a bump on his head, Lulu scoffing at his behaviour. Garnet smiled as she watched Mondo caring for Grogu while Logan and Naruto took a swig of Ale. Naruto smiling at his friends.
.
Yamiyo no hibiku Haruka na hikari
Shinjiteru-mono-tachi no Hōkō
Naruto's smile soon fades at the memories of his world fading into the darkness. Maleficent's taunting smirk. He runs through the darkness reaching out for Hinata who sleeps as a pair of yellow eyes open above her.
Hey! Get low! Hey! Hoero!
Images flash of Yen-Sid sitting in his office with Mickey, Sid along with Yuiffie, and Aerith, Cloud and Squall back to back with their swords ready. Finally everyone in Traverse Town.
Kōdō okose ima
Naruto clashes with the silhouette of an unknown figure both jump back, the figure smirking as the darkness expands around them.
Hey! You're gonna be somebody.
Sōkyū no Exodus
Images flash off, Pete standing beside Maleficent jaffar, and Narissa Dr. Facilier tips his hat standing beside Hades, Hook sails his boat over the sea with Ursula riding a chariot being pulled by her sharks. The final one of the Horned King holding out his clawed hand. His eyes glow bright red as he looks over to see Naruto and his friends ready to do battle against them.
Wazuka ni nokoshita Yume higher
Sore made Nakushichau no wa iya
Mimikasu wakenainda liar
Otanoshimi yeah!
Several heartless march towards them only to be struck down by Micky, Donald, Goofy, Cloud, and Squall. Naruto and his friends charge forward while the evil council watches them Maleficent raising up her staff in her hand, summoning up a pillar of green fire engulfing the entire battlefield.
.
Umarete Hateru made
Kabe ga dekai hodo desire
Hiraku Kokoro ni messiah
Kawaru Jidai tsukandetainda
Akiramezu yeah!
Naruto and the others stand up enduring it, he grits his teeth, his eyes turn bright red as he and the others give out a cry of battle except for Lulu and Shego who smirk confidently. Lulu and Shego face of with Maleficent and Jafar in a battle of magic with Pete coming into to strike her with his sword but is kicked away by Stitch who was then caught by Tifa with Ursula in her giant form closing in on them but is blocked by Garnet atop the shoulders of Ifrit drawing his blade, Narissa gives a sinister grin as Hellen attacks her with a stretching punch while Garnet gives a determined glare. Logan Mando and Lightning engage in battle with Hades, Hook and Dr. Facilier dodging the blue flames of the evil god, the sword swipes of the pirate captain and green magic blasts of the voodoo sorcerer.
Torawareta Yoru wo koete
Hade ni Howling my SOUL
Naruto swings his hand, summoning up all his key blades as the circle around him facing the horned king and the mysterious figure who stands in front of seven beams of light. Naruto draws his keyblade but looks up to see Beast jumping down between them his cape waving in the winds as he bares his fangs and roared
The scene ends with Naruto and his friends flying off happily looking out towards the many unknown worlds.

(Hospital room)
Naruto was laying in a hospital bed, fast asleep from his battle with Sephiroth. It had been a few days since the battle, and everyone was hoping he would wake up soon.
Sakura was checking on him, when a knock was heard on the door to his room.
"How's he doing?" Tifa asked, as she walked into the room.
Sakura smiled at Tifa, as she and the others visited Naruto regularly over the past couple days. "He's doing fine, and he should be waking up soon," she said.
"Good. The others are all trying to keep busy by helping the town, but I can tell they are all still worried" Tifa said, as she looked at Naruto's sleeping form.
Sakura watched and smiled "You and the other girls like him huh?" she asked.
Tifa froze, but looked at Sakura and sighed. "Yea, we like him," she said with a slight nod.
"He tell you about the Clan Restoration Act?" Sakura asked her, with a curious look.
Tifa laughed at this. "Yea he did, and he was so worried we would be upset then" she told Sakura.
Sakura smiled at this. "Yea, Naruto cares a lot about what his friends think," she said in agreement.
Naruto then groaned, as he woke up. "Ugh, what hit me?" he asked, as he rubbed his head while sitting up a little.
"Glad to see your awake," Tifa said with a relieved tone.
"Yea, your friends have been worried about you" Sakura said as she walked over, and ran her hands over him that were covered in chakra.
"Is the town OK?" Naruto asked them with concern.
"Yes, yes. We have been fixing up the town pretty quickly, thanks to Strange and some of his fellow magic users" Sakura said, as she eased Naruto's worries.
"We have been having some problems, because of Maleficent though" Tifa said with a frown, as she crossed her arms.
"What kind of problems has she been causing?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.
"She took a final princess, and broke out all the villains we had locked up," Tifa said.
"Damn it, that witch took advantage of the mayhem to get ahead of us" Naruto said with a scowl, as he gripped his fists tightly.
"Yes, and the council wants to see you right away as soon as you're up" Sakura said, as she finished moving her chakra hands over him.
"Well, tell them I'm on my way," Naruto said, as he got up carefully and moved to where his clothes were folded on a chair.
"Careful," Tifa said with a look of worry.
"I'm fine Tifa, don't worry about it" Naruto told her with an easy smile.
"Yea, he's at full strength now," Sakura said with a nod.
As Naruto left, he saw into another hospital room, and saw Lee in a bed and he currently had a visitor.
"You ever think of using the 8th gate again, and I'll kill you myself!" Boom Boom yelled at Lee, who was looking sheepish.
"Sorry, I just wanted to stop him from hurting the town," Lee said.
"Then work harder with others, and don't throw your life away you idiot!" Boom Boom yelled, as she slugged Lee in the shoulder.
Naruto chuckled at this, glad Lee had someone looking out for him. But he did wonder when Lee and Boom Boom started hanging out with each though, as he continued to head for the exit.

(City Hall, moments later)
Naruto was just approaching City Hall, when he heard a voice behind him.
"Well, if it isn't harem boy!" Deadpool said as he walked up to him.
"Hey Wade," Naruto said as he turned to look at the merc.
"You feeling better now huh? Glad to hear it" Deadpoll said, as he slung an arm over Naruto's shoulder.
"What have you been up to?" Naruto asked him with a raised eyebrow.
"Helping out my new friends around town, we have been volunteering with cleanup" Deadpool said.
"New friends?" Naruto asked curiously.
"Oh yeah, you didn't officially meet them during the mayhem of that boy band freaks attack. Hey, Sam and Max! Come and meet Naruto!" Deadpool yelled, as he waved his hand at two people who jogged over.
"Greetings Mr Uzumaki," Sam said with a tip of his hat at Naruto, as he and Max approached.
"So this is the guy that chicken boy wanted to fight huh?" Max asked, as he walked around Naruto to get a good look at him.
Naruto snorted in laughter. "Chicken boy, ha! I need to remember that one if I see him again" he said with a grin.
"Oh, I'm sure that Author-San will have you and him fighting in a few chapters, if not sooner" Deadpool said, as he adopted a thinking pose.
"You gonna see the council?" Sam asked Naruto, while ignoring Deadpool.
Naruto nodded at Sam.
"Good, tell them we want to be reimbursed. Our favourite ride was destroyed, for distracting that guy" Max said.
"You distracted him?" Naruto asked in surprise.
"Yea, so that some civilians could get out of the area" Sam said.
"Well, I'll put in a good word for you two," Naruto said as he gave them a nod, before he went on his way.
"Oh and don't worry, I dropped off Alita with Big Hero 6. If anyone can upgrade her, they can" Deadpool said as Naruto walked up the steps of City Hall.
Naruto gave Deadpool a thumbs up over his shoulder as thanks, before he entered City Hall.
"I still say we could have upgraded her ourselves" Max said with a pout, as he crossed his arms.
"We don't need her being an agent of chaos. The town already has us, my fellow psycho" Deadpool said, as he gave Max a noogie.
"You think we can get them to upgrade our ride, so it has a mech mode?" Max asked with a hopeful look.
"Depends who we ask" Sam said with a shrug.
"Oh, I know who to ask!" Deadpool said, as he picked up Max and ran off.
"Lead the way, human tumor!" Max yelled, as he gave a mad grin while pointing forward.
Sam sighed, as he followed after Deadpool and Max.

(With Naruto)
Naruto was walking the halls, as he headed towards the chambers of the council. He wondered what they wanted to see him about, and he hoped that it wasn't them blaming him for Sephiroth showing up as he already blamed himself for that, during the fight.
["Kid I already told you, it's not your fault"] Kurama said, as he gave Naruto's astral form a scowl.
"Maleficent is after me because of Hinata's heart. Traverse Town got attacked because of me" Naruto thought to Kurama.
["Kid, nobody blames you. If anyone is to blame, it's that vile witch"] Kurama told Naruto, as he scowled off in the distance as though projecting his anger at her.
Naruto sighed at this, as he approached the door to the council's meeting room. He then knocked on the door, to let them know he'd arrived.
The door then opened, and Naruto saw the council at their table.
"Welcome Naruto. Please, come in and take a seat" Tsunade said as she waved him in.
Naruto entered the room, and sat in his seat. "So what do you guys need?" he asked them curiously.
Xavier looked at Naruto. "As you've probably heard, Maleficent took a final princess from Traverse Town during the fight with Sephiroth" he said, as he steepled his fingers together.
Naruto nodded at this, as he wondered what Xavier was getting at.
"Which means; that the enemy only needs the heart of Hinata, which is in you, to open the door," Squall said as he leaned forward.
"What are you getting at?" Naruto asked, not liking the tone Squall was using. His eyes then widened, as he said "Don't tell me."
"The council has decided; that until we are ready to launch an attack on the world Maleficent and her group are using as a base, you are not allowed to leave Traverse Town" Yen Sid said, as he crossed his arms on the table.
Naruto glared at them hearing this. "I am not gonna be locked up" he said, as he stood up while slamming his hands on the table.
"We are not locking you up brat. You're allowed to be out in the town, you're just not allowed to leave it" Tsunade told him, as she hoped to ease his anger.
"You can use this time to train, and actually get stronger as a Keyblader" Medusa said, translating for Black Bolt who was signing his answer.
"I'm plenty strong. I was actually fighting Sephiroth, unlike you!" Naruto yelled, while glaring at Black Bolt.
Black Bolt frowned at Naruto, and signed again which Medusa translated once more.
"You are right, and I am sorry but we can't risk letting Maleficent capture you" Medusa said as she crossed her arms over her chest, while also giving Naruto a frown.
"Fine! I'll just waste time here, while you all do nothing while worlds suffer!" Naruto yelled, as he turned around and barged out of the room.
The council was silent watching this, as they kind of expected Naruto to react like that.
"Well, that went well," Tsunade said with a sigh, as she rubbed her head.
"What do you see him doing?" Scrooge asked her, with a raised eyebrow in curiosity.
"Knowing him, something reckless and stupid" Tsunude said with a shake of her head, as she folded her amrs over her chest.
"That's what we are all afraid of," Yan Lin said, with a look of worry on her face.

(With Naruto)
Naruto was walking down the stairs towards the exit to City Hall, with a scowl on his face.
"Naruto!" a voice called out to him, and when he looked he saw it was Jessica.
His scowl disappeared, as he gave her as much of a smile as he could. "Hey Jessica, what can I do for ya?" he asked her, as she approached him.
"I'm assuming the council told you?" Jessica asked, as she could tell he wasn't happy even though he tried to hide it.
Naruto scowled at this, and gave her a small nod.
"I know it's not what you would have wanted, but you could use this time to help Traverse Town or spend time with your friends, while we prepare a plan for Maleficent" Jessica said, as she placed a hand on his shoulder in comfort.
"And what would you propose I do?" Naruto asked her, as he gave her a side look.
Jessica sighed at this. "Come with me, we are going out" she told him, as she grabbed his hand and walked out City Hall as she pulled him with her.
"Where are we going?" Naruto asked her.
"You look like you could use a meal, so I'm taking you to a place where I go to lunch all the time. It's called La Ratatouille" she said, as they left City Hall and walked down the streets.
It took them a few minutes to find the restaurant.
"Oh yea, I remember a friend telling me about this place" Naruto said, remembering when he met Roxanne and Stacy
"Well, they have some of the best food in town, so let's go inside," Jessica said, as she led Naruto inside the restaurant.
As soon as they entered, Naruto saw that most of the tables were taken and that there were only a few left.
"Hey Naruto, it's about time you decided to visit" a voice said, and when Naruto looked he saw Stacy who was at a greeters table.
"Yea sorry about that, I've just been very busy with saving worlds and fighting villains" Naruto said, as he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly.
"Yea, we all saw the footage of you fighting that angel freak" Stacy said, as she frowned at what Sephiroth had done.
"So are you and Roxanne doing OK?" Naruto asked, as Stacy led them to a table while carrying two menus.
Stacy smiled at this. "Yea. Roxanne is in the kitchen learning from the head Chef, since she wants to be a cook" she said with a smile.
"Well from what I heard, the head chef here is one of the best," Jessica said with a smile, as they sat down at their table.
Stacy smiled and nodded at this. "Yea. He's not a traditional chef, but his food is top notch" she said.
"Does he make ramen?" Naruto asked eagerly.
Stacy laughed at this, finding his excitement cute. "I haven't seen him make that yet, but he loves a good challenge" she said, as she passed them both the menus. "You can look at these, and see if there's anything else you want while I go ask him if he can make you some" she said, before she walked off to the kitchen.
"Normally I wouldn't let you have ramen, but you deserve this much since you stopped Sephiroth from destroying the town" Jessica said with a smile, before she looked over the menu to see if they'd added anything new.
Stacy then walked out of the kitchen, with a smile. "He accepts your challenge, Naruto. Him and Roxanne will have it ready soon" she told him.
"Good, I'll have the Ratatouille" Jessica said with a smile, after a look over the menu.
"Ah, his specialty," Stacy said with a nod, as she wrote it down on her notepad. "You and your date's food will be ready soon" she said, as she went back into the kitchen.
Naruto blushed at this, but said nothing as he saw Jessica smile at this. "Is this a date?" he asked her.
Jessica leaned forward to look at Naruto, showing off her cleavage a bit. "Do you want it to be?" she asked him with a sexy wink.
Naruto blushed even harder at this, but shook his head. "Well, if you're ok with the CRA thing, then I would like to date you,'' he said.
Jessica smiled at this. "Well, it's not exactly what I pictured finding a man would be like. But I know you're not a pig, so yes I am ok with it" she said, as she placed a hand on his.
Naruto smiled at Jessica, glad that she didn't see him as a pervert.
Roxanne at that moment came out, while wearing a chief's hat and carrying two plates; with one being a bowl of ramen and the other a plate of ratatouille.
"Hey Roxanne, I heard you're a chef now," Naruto said with a smile, as Roxanne approached and gave them their orders.
"Yea, I'm coming along with my cooking skills" Roxanne said with a smile.
Naruto took the chop sticks that Roxanne left on the plate, and prepared to eat the ramen she brought. "Well, it smells fantastic" he said, as he fished out some ramen and blew on it before he took a bite and froze.
"Is it OK?" Jessica asked, as Roxanne frowned hoping nothing was wrong.
"OK? It's fantastic!" Naruto said with a bright smile, as he started to eat with gusto.
Roxanne smiled at this, glad that he liked it. "Remey will like that he met your expectations," she said.
"Oh, is that the head chef here?" Jessica asked, as there was a lot of mystery surrounding the chef of this restaurant.
"Yea, he's very secretive" Roxanne said with a smile, as her chef hat shook slightly.
"Well whoever it is, he's definitely a great chef!" Naruto said with a bright smile, as he raised some ramen on his chopsticks as though to toast the head chef, before he continued eating.
"Would you say that if he wasn't human?" Roxanne asked curiously, as the chef hat shook again.
"Of course! This is fantastic food, and that is all I need to know" Naruto said still with a smile.
Roxanne smiled at this. "Well if you want to meet him, you can come back to the kitchen when you're done eating" she said, as she went back to the kitchen.
Naruto and Jessica continued to eat, happy they chose to come here.
Soon, Naruto and Jessica finished their meal.
"So what's your plan after this?" Jessica asked, as she put her utensils down and wiped her mouth with the napkin.
"I'll probably explore the town, and try to figure out how I can plan for the fight with Maleficent," Naruto said as he did the same.
"If you want information on Maleficent, then you should go visit the 3 good fairies. They know her more, then anyone else" Jessica said, as she really wanted to help him.
Naruto was intrigued, as he leaned forward in interest. "Where can I find these 3 good fairies?" he asked her.
Jessica took out her Gummi phone, and started tapping on it. "They live in town, I'm sending their location to your phone" she said, as she finished tapping on her phone.
Naruto then felt his phone vibrate, as it dinged to tell him he got the text.
"Well before I go see them, I should go thank the chef," Naruto said, as they both stood up.
"Yea, and I have work to do back at the office. But before I go," Jessica said, as she approached Naruto and kissed him on the cheek. "You stay out of trouble, ok?" she said, as she stroked his chin a little.
Naruto nodded like he was in a trance, as Jessica left the restaurant with a sway in her hips.
["Snap out of it, before I have you fixed!"] Kurama yelled, making Naruto jump which made Kurama laugh at him.
"That wasn't funny," Naruto said with a scowl, as he walked over to the kitchen doors.
As he entered, he saw Roxanne at a cutting board chopping some vegetables like a pro, but Naruto noticed something.
"Her movements aren't her own" Naruto thought, as he walked over.
When he got closer, the light hit Roxanne's chef hat in a way that let Naruto see a silhouette in her chef hat.
["Is that a rat?!"] Kurama yelled in shock.
"Relax, let's get an explanation first," Naruto said, as he stood off to one side.
Roxanne looked up from her work at Naruto, and saw him looking at her chef hat. "Looks like he figured it out, Remy," she said with a sigh.
Her chef hat started shaking, as a squeaking sound was heard from it.
Roxanne took off her hat, and placed it on a table. And when she moved the hat, they saw a rat on the table.
The rat looked at Naruto, and waved at him nervously.
Naruto approached the rat, and looked at him curiously. "So you're the one who made that ramen?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.
The rat nodded at this, along with giving a thumbs up.
Naruto smiled at this. "Well, you're a fantastic cook. I never knew you could have a mix of so many flavors in ramen" he said as he patted Remy's head.
Remy smiled at this, and relaxed glad that Naruto wasn't freaking out.
"See, I told you Naruto wouldn't freak out," Roxanne said with a smile, as she leaned against the table.
"So he's the one teaching you?" Naruto asked her curiously.
"Yup. As he manipulates me and cooks, he has me pay attention to how he does it, so eventually I can do it on my own" Roxanne said, as she placed a hand on the table, so that Remy could run up to sit on her shoulder.
"Well, I'm sure you will be a first rate chef in no time. Just tell me when you're ready, and I'll be first in line to try your food" Naruto said, as he gave her a cheesy grin along with a thumbs up.
Roxanne smiled at this, and nodded at Naruto in thanks.
Naruto nodded, as he left the kitchen to leave the restaurant.
Remy looked at Roxanne, with a knowing look on his face.
"Quiet you" Roxanne said with a smile, as they got back to cooking.

(Later, in town)
Naruto was sitting on a rooftop, looking at his Gummi phone looking at the map app, that was leading him to the location of the three good fairies.
"Flora, Fauna and Merriweather?" Naruto said, as he read from the information about the fairies with a raised eyebrow at their weird names.
Kurama snorted at this, as those names were goofy to him.
"Quiet you" Naruto thought to his friend, as he approached a tall tower.
The tower looked like it was from a fairy tale.
"This looks like the right place," Naruto said, as he approached the tower and knocked on the door.
He then heard some noises coming from inside the tower.
"Hello? Is everything OK?" he asked, as he opened the door to take a look.
When he looked inside, he saw three older looking women and each were wearing pink, green and blue outfits, as they flew around with their wings.
What was interesting, was that the three fairy were cleaning the tower.
Naruto saw that a mop and broom were moving on their own cleaning the place.
The fairy in pink noticed Naruto at the door, and turned to face him. "Hello young man, what can we do for you?" she asked kindly, as she floated over to him.
"Hey, I'm Naruto and I'm here to -" he was saying, until the green outfit fairy interrupted him.
"Oh! The Keyblader that made Sephiroth retreat" the fairy in green said with a smile, as she too floated over to him.
"I'm surprised you did that, even though you're still a Rookie" the fairy in blue said, as she flew around Naruto, inspecting him with a furrowed brow.
"Hush Merriweather" the fairy in pink said, with an annoyed look.
"I didn't say he wasn't impressive Flora" Merriweather said, as she gave her a glare.
"Now now, there's no need to fight" the fairy in green said, as she raised her hands between them.
"Yes yes, your right Fauna" Flora said, as she turned to Naruto. "Now, what can we do for you?" she asked him.
"Well, I was told by Jessica that if I wanted to know more about Maleficent, that I should ask you three," Naruto said, as he folded his arms over his chest.
The fairies were surprised about this, but looked at each other and nodded.
"Well, that's a long story, young man," Flora said.
"I have the time," Naruto said with a shrug.
"Very well. Come sit down, and I'll tell you Maleficent's story" Flora said, as she led Naruto to a table.
"Me and Merriweather will go get some tea, and cakes" Fauna said.
"There is no need," Naruto said, trying to be polite.
"Nonsense, you just sit and talk to Flora" Merriweather said, as her and Fauna floated off into the kitchen.
Flora shook her head with a smile at her fellow fairies, as she turned to Naruto. "I guess the best place to start is with the beginning. You see, a long time ago in our old world Maleficent was actually a fairy just like us" she said, as they both sat down.
"She is a fairy?" Naruto asked surprised, as from what he saw from Maleficent she didn't exactly scream fairy.
"Yes, she was. She was one of the best, and most powerful of the fairies" Flora said.
"Yes, she was actually a good person back then" Fauna said, as she and Merriweather brought out some tea and cakes floating on some plates, before setting them down on the small table.
"You're kidding," Naruto said, as he took a cup of tea.
"Yea, I hardly believe it too" Merriweather said, as she and Fauna sat down.
"What happened? Why did she turn out the way she is now?" Naruto asked, as he took a sip of tea. "This is nice tea by the way," he added.
"Thank you," Flora said with a smile, before she frowned and sighed. "As for why Maleficent is like this, she fell in love."
"There has to be more to it than that," Naruto said with a small frown of his own.
Flora nodded, and pulled out her wand and waved it, making an image of the Horned King. "You see, an evil being called the horned king tricked her into thinking he was a human who cared about her. And when she let her guard down, he took her wings" she said, as an image of the Horned King used an iron sword, to cut Maleficent's wings off making her scream in pain.
Naruto frowned, hearing Maleficent's screams of pain and betrayal.
"After that, her anger at herself and the horned king caused her to become corrupted by darkness" Fauna said with a frown.
The image of Maleficent screamed in rage, as her pale skin turned green as she gained a cloak, and a cold look on her face.
"So, she's only this way because that horned king tricked her," Naruto said, as he leaned forward.
"I'm afraid so dearie" Flora said.
"Long ago, we tried to offer her help. But she rejected all offers of help from us, and anyone else who offered her help" Merriweather said, with a shake of her head.
"Well, that makes sense. She was betrayed by someone who she thought loved her, of course she has trust issues" Naruto said, as he rubbed his chin.
The three fairies nodded at this, as they knew this already.
"Well, I know what I have to do now," Naruto said, as he put his cup down on the table.
"And what's that?" Flora asked him curiously.
Naruto looked at them, with a determined look. "I'm gonna find her wings, and return them to her," Naruto said.
This got shocked reactions from the three fairies.
"You're kidding, right?" Merriweather asked him.
"No I'm not," Naruto said.
"She's not the same person she was back then, Naruto. If you do that, you may just be giving her more power," Flora said with a frown.
"I don't care! They are her wings, and they belong to her" Naruto said as he stood up.
"Your either a fool, or have way too much of a forgiving heart" Merriweather said
Naruto shrugged his shoulders, and said "People say I might have both."
"Well. that is a rare and good trait to have. But please, try not to be reckless" Fauna said.
Naruto nodded at the fairy. "Thanks for the tea, but I should go" he said, as he walked towards the door to leave.
"May your heart be your guiding light," Flora said to Naruto, as he left.
Naruto waved at them, as he walked out of the tower and back to town.

(In town)
Naruto was roof hopping, making his way across Traverse Town.
["You're not actually serious about helping that witch, are you?"] Kurama asked, with a raised eyebrow.
"Anyone can change if you give them a chance. I mean, look at you" Naruto thought to his friend.
"Yes, your proof of that Kurama" Hinata thought to the fox.
Kurama frowned at this, as they both had a good point.
Naruto then saw Konohamaru at a shop, talking to a group of people that looked his own age.
One he recognized as Mindy, who was twirling a kunai looking bored.
One was a short boy with blonde hair, and wearing a red long coat
One was what looked like a man, in huge armor.
The last one, was what looked like a girl in a school girl outfit. Naruto could also make out a small spider that was sitting on her shoulder.
"Hey Konohamaru!" Naruto yelled out, as he landed in front of them.
"Hey! You're finally up," Konohamaru said with a smile at Naruto
"Yeah, I'm fine now. So, who are your friends?" Naruto asked him, as he looked at the other kids with a curious look.
"Oh, these are my friends. This is Edward and Alphonse Elric," Konohamaru said, pointing at the blonde boy and the man in armor.
"Hey there," Edward said with a wave, while Alphonse gave him a nod.
"And this is Penni Parker" Konohamaru said, as he turned to the girl in a schoolgirl outfit
"Konichiwa" Penni said, with a bow of her head at Naruto in greeting.
"And you already know Mindy," Konohamaru said, pointing at Mindy.
"Are you staying out of trouble?" Naruto asked Mindy.
Mindy scoffed at this. "You wish," she said with a smirk.
Naruto rolled his eyes at this. "So, are you staying with someone in the ninja district?" Naruto asked Mindy curiously.
Konohamaru snorted at this. "Yeah, she is. And you won't believe who's her Guardian" he said trying not to laugh.
"Oh she's not that bad" Mindy said, with a roll of her eyes.
"She greeted you by cutting your cheek," Konohamaru said flatly.
Naruto's eyes widened hearing this, as he recognized that story. "She's staying with Anko?!" he yelled in shock.
"She's the only one she didn't pull a gun on" Ed said with a snicker.
Mindy glared at Ed at this. "I don't need to hear that from you short stack" she said with a growl.
Ed instantly gained an enraged look. "The hell you call me, you psycho?!" he yelled, as he clapped his hands and in a flash of light he pulled a spear out of the ground.
Mindy's eyebrow twitched at hearing the word psycho, as she pulled out some brass knuckles. "Don't get short with me, Mr frodo" she growled out.
Ed growled, but before he could attack AL grabbed him and put him in a hold. "Let me go Al!" he yelled, as he struggled.
"Brother, she will beat you up again. She's worse than teacher, and will leave marks" AL said, as he tried to calm Ed down.
"I don't care! That mental case called me short! "Ed yelled, as he thrashed about in Al's arms.
"OK, that's it!" Mindy yelled, as she tackled Ed, sending her and the two brothers to the ground, as Ed and Mindy started to fight.
"Is this normal for them?" Naruto asked with a sweat drop.
"Yeah, they always trade insults then fight for a bit before someone breaks it up" Penni said with a shake of her head.
"Come on you two, break it up before you get busted again by the captain" Konohamaru said.
"I don't care what that uptight bitch says, this idiot has it coming!" Mindy yelled, as she had Ed in a hold, as she slammed his head into Al's armor.
"Who are you calling an uptight bitch?" a woman's voice asked, from up the road.
When Naruto looked that way, he saw a beautiful pale-skinned woman who has waist-length blond hair that is noticeably curled at the ends despite being otherwise relatively straight with parts of her hair covering her right eye, light blue eyes, long eyelashes and her lips were clearly defined and rather full. She was slender and she also sports a rather muscular build.
["I smell danger"] Kurama said looking at this woman.
The woman approached the still fighting Ed and Mindy, and grabbed them both and separated them.
"You both stop fighting, now!" she yelled in a commanding tone.
"Back off hag!" Mindy yelled, as she turned to her.
"Oh god," Konohamaru groaned as he slapped his face, and dragged his hand down his face.
"Dead bitch walking," Ed said, knowing that Mindy crossed a line.
The woman then grabbed Ed by the ear, and yanked him up to his feet making Ed yell out.
"What are you doing fighting with kids?!" the woman yelled at Ed, as she twisted his ear.
"Uh, Miss Olivier, they are our friends" AL said, as he hoped to resolve this peacefully.
"I don't care. You and Ed are 16 and 15, so you should be watching out for them, and not fighting like fools!" Olivier yelled out.
"Hey, I don't need you defending me! I have been kicking his ass since we met" Mindy said, as she gave her a glare.
"Well, we all can't be trained killers!" Ed yelled at her.
"Oh stop being a jerk Elric, she's been doing well since the council put her on probation, so grow up!" Olivier said, as she twisted his ear a little more.
"Alright, alright! Just let me go, damn it!" Ed yelled in pain.
Olivier let Ed go, and turned to the others. "Now, go help clean up the park. They need help there" she said to them.
"Make m-" Mindy was saying, before Konohamaru quickly covered her mouth.
"Yes Miss Armstrong," he said as he dragged Mindy off, with Penni close behind them.
Naruto watched as Konohamaru and his friends ran off. "Kids huh?" he asked Olivier, who just glared lightly at him.
"Why didn't you try to stop them fighting?" Olivier asked him, with her arms crossed.
Naruto looked at her, and saw the look in her eyes that promised pain, if he didn't have a good reason.
"Well?" Olivier said with an edge in her voice, as she put her fists on her hips.
"Well, I just figured letting them hash out their differences on their own would be best. Plus, I could tell they weren't gonna really hurt each other" Naruto said with a shrug.
Olivier glared at Naruto, but soon she sighed. "Well, I can see the logic in that since in some instances, kids should learn how to deal with disagreements on their own" she said while running her hand through her hair.
Naruto sighed, glad she wasn't mad at him.
["She actually bought that crap?"] Kurama asked in surprise.
"Shut up!" Naruto thought at Kurama.
Olivier looked at Naruto, with a contemplative look. "You are Naruto, right? I have been wanting to introduce myself to you. I am Olivier Mira Armstrong" she said, as she held a hand out to him.
"Yes. Naruto Uzumaki, at your service" Naruto said, as he took her hand and shook it.
"Hmm, strong grip," Olivier said with an impressed tone. "You feel up for a spar? I have been wanting to spar with a Keyblader" she said as they released each other's hand.
Naruto thought about this, as he had free time now that he couldn't leave town.
["I wouldn't kid. She screams crazy, like that hag and the snake freak"] Kurama said with a concerned tone.
"She can't be as bad as Ba-Chan and Anko," Naruto thought back.
["Okay, don't say I didn't warn ya. Just don't come crying to me if she breaks your leg or something"] Kurama said with a huff.
"Well, you wanna spar or are you a coward?" Olivier asked, sounding impatient, as her arms were crossed and she was tapping her finger on her arm.
Naruto put on a friendly smile at this. "Sure, I know a sparing ground in the ninja district we can use," he said.
"Lead the way then Uzumaki" Olivier said, as she gestured with her hand.
As they walked down the road, they were being watched by Konohamaru and his friends who were peeking around a building.
"That guy is so dead," Ed said, with a shake of his head.
"Yea, Miss Armstrong is pretty strong, and she's not even an alchemist" Al said, as he nodded his head in agreement with his brother.
"Let's go watch," Mindy said with a grin.
"I'm in. "What about you Penni?" Konohamaru said, with a smile at his friend.
Penni started to play with her fingers, nervous at having Konohamaru's attention. "S-sure Konohamaru, if you want to go," she said nervously, as she had her head down.
Mindy watched this and growled, as her eyebrow twitched in anger.
"Great, let's go," Konohamaru said, as he grabbed Penni's hand and dragged her off in pursuit of Naruto.
Ed smirked at this, as he knew why Mindy was mad. But before he could say anything, Mindy pointed a kunai at him.
"One word from you and you lose a limb, and I don't mean one of the metal ones" Mindy growled out, as she ran off to catch up with Konohamaru.
Ed watched Mindy runoff, and scowled. "Jeez, she's worse than Winry" he grumbled, as he rubbed his head.
"Yea, at least Winry only threatens you with blunt objects" Al said with a chuckle.
"Whatever, let's go watch the fight,'' Ed said.
"Fight, what fight?" a voice yelled out, and when Ed and Al looked, they saw it was Deadpool, Sam and Max.
"Hey! It's the anime legends themselves, which versions are you? 2003 or brotherhood?" Deadpool asked, as he walked over to them.
Ed and Al looked at Deadpool with confusion as they didn't get what he was saying
"Ignore him. So, who's fighting?" Sam asked the two brothers.
"That Keyblader is gonna fight Olivier in the ninja district" Ed said.
"Naruto, brother," Al said.
"I know his name!" Ed yelled out.
Deadpool gasped dramatically at this. "Oh lord! She's gonna gut him like a fish!" he yelled out, with his hands on his cheeks.
"Cool, let's go watch!" Max said with a grin.
"Indeed, we can sell tickets and even take bets!" Deadpool yelled, as he and Max ran off.
"Wait for me, you two!" Sam yelled as he ran after them.
"Those guys are weird," Ed said, as he and Al ran to catch up.

(With Naruto)
Naruto and Olivier had just arrived at the ninja district, and found a good training ground to spar in.
There was only one problem though.
"Why are there people here?" Olivier asked, sounding annoyed at the fact there were people here in makeshift seats around the training ground.
"No clue, but I may know who to ask," Naruto said, as he saw Deadpool, Sam and Max at a makeshift ticket booth off to one side.
"I'm giving 1 in 5 on the smoking blonde to win. Any takers?" Deadpool yelled to the crowd, as some raised their hands when he said that.
"What will you give me on Naruto to win?" Choji asked, as he ate from a bag of chips.
"1 in 50" Sam said with a smile.
Naruto face planted upon hearing this.
"Who told you all we were gonna fight?" Olivier asked, not sounding amused as she gave them a glare.
"The short kid, and his pet armor" Max said, as he was taking bets.
"Oy! Who are you calling short, you rabbit freak?!" Ed yelled from his seat
Al was also there, and he looked depressed about being called a pet.
"Didn't think you were the type to fight in sport fights Olivier" a man said, as he walked over.
When Naruto looked, he saw a man in a blue uniform similar to Oliver's outfit. He had black hair, and was wearing white gloves. He was sitting with two others in uniforms like his; one was a bald man with a blonde mustache, and the other was a blonde woman.
"I don't usually do that, Mustang," Olivier said.
"I think it's a splendid idea sister!" the huge bald man said, as he gave her a thumbs up with a smile.
"Alex, I'm not here to entertain the town" Olivier said to the man, sounding annoyed.
"Yea, I don't think the town could handle the damage" the blonde woman said, as she crossed her arms.
"Oh come on Hawkeye, I'm curious to see how the Keyblader does" Mustang said, as he gave her a small pout.
"You just want them to fight, because you bet on Olivier to win," Hawkeye said, while rolling her eyes at her captain.
"He may be a Keyblader, but he's a wuss vs woman from what I heard" Mustang said with a small smile.
"Oy!" Naruto yelled, as he gave him a glare.
"Final call! Get your bets in now!" Deadpool yelled out.
"Here's my bet!" Penny Proud yelled, as she ran over and handed her bet to Deadpool, who looked at her paper and money.
"Are you serious?" Deadpool asked, not believing Penny's unique bet would work out in her favor at all.
"Scared?" Penny asked him, as she crossed her arms while giving him a raised eyebrow.
"Hell no! I'll give you 1 in 100" Max yelled, as he snatched the paper from Deadpool.
"Wait, it's a trap! Author-San is setting us up!" Deadpool yelled, as his eyes widened in horror while his hands were on his cheeks.
"OK, let's start this spar," Olivier said, as she unsheathed her blade.
Naruto summoned his Keyblade, and took a stance that Lightning taught him.
"Don't worry, I'll go easy on you," Naruto said with a smile, trying to sound friendly.
Olivier glared at Naruto, as a dark aura appeared behind her.
"Well, he's dead," Mustang said with a laugh, as he saw what was coming a mile away.
Before Naruto could react, Olivier slashed at him which he barely blocked.
"Holy crap, she's strong!" Naruto thought in shock, as he skidded back from her strike.
"Come here, you pathetic fool!" Olivier yelled, as she grabbed Naruto and threw him through a tree.
Kiba, who was in the crowd with his fellow ninjas, was on the floor laughing at this as Olivier attacked Naruto, who was running from her.
"Troublesome," Shikamaru said, as Olivier had Naruto in a head lock and was bashing his head against a rock.
"What's going on?" Tifa asked, as her and her fellow crewmates arrived.
"It looks like the kid is getting his ass kicked," Mando said with a chuckle, as they all sat down next to those from the ninja district.
Grogu whined at seeing Naruto run from Olivier, as he made a rock float and threw it at Olivier who just dodged it.
"Who threw that?!" she demanded, but she then jumped as Naruto and a few clones dropped down at her, Keyblades ready to strike.
Olivier struck at a clone, and jammed her blade into its arm making the clone disappear in a puff of smoke.
She then slashed at a few more clones, instantly destroying them.
"Jeez, where did Naruto dig this one up?" Lulu asked, sounding impressed with how Olivier was handling herself.
"If she hurts him, I'm gonna kick her ass" Shego growled out, as her hands lit on fire.
"Get in line," Lightning said, as she put her hand on her gunblade.
"Come on Naruto!" Tifa yelled out, as she cupped her mouth so that he could hear her better.
"Yea, come on! I bet on the chick to win, so I'm counting on you!" Deadpool yelled out.
Logan groaned at this, and rolled his eyes as he drank a beer.
"Shut up, you idiot!" Tifa yelled at Deadpool, as she picked up a chair and broke it on his back.
Olivier was now attacking Naruto with rapid slashes from her sword, which he was blocking.
"Stop holding back, you fool! You gonna hold back against the enemy?!" Olivier yelled in frustration, as she slugged Naruto in the face, sending him into a tree which broke and fell over backwards.
"Ha! I like this chick!" Anko yelled, as she slapped her knee before raising her fist in the air.
She then saw Deadpool thrown at her feet, from the beating Tifa gave him. "You gonna be ok?" she asked him.
"I am now, snake babe" Deadpool groaned, as he gave her a weak thumbs up.
"Pfft, your either brave or stupid to hit on me" Anko said, as she crossed her arms.
"Stupid!" everyone nearby yelled, that knew Deadpools antics.
"Kiss my ass haters!" Deadpool yelled, as he flipped off the crowd.
Anko laughed at this. "I like you, here have some sake" she said, while handing Deadpool a bottle of sake.
"Thank you Author-San for the chance to get some love for the snake hottie," Deadpool said as took the sake, and sat down next to Anko as they watched the fight.
"OK, that's it!" Naruto yelled, as his armor appeared on his body and he formed a Rasengan.
"Finally. Now, show me your power!" Olivier yelled, when to her surprise Naruto was in front of her, and he slammed his Rasengan into her stomach which sent her flying into a boulder that broke into pieces.
"Please let that be enough," Naruto thought, hoping that would end the fight between the two of them.
Olivier soon came out of the dust hurt, but she had a smile on her face. "Not bad Uzumaki, not bad at all" she said as she dusted herself off.
Naruto gulped at this, as he really didn't want to hurt her.
"OK, that is enough you two," Tsunade said as she arrived.
This caused the crowd to groan, as since the match didn't have a winner they all lost their money.
Penny then walked over to Max. "Pay up, I bet there wouldn't be a winner!" she said with a grin, as she held her hand out towards him and waved it at him.
Sam groaned, as he handed over all the money they made to Penny.
"Told you so," Deadpool said in a sing-song voice.
"This is your fault, milk jugs! I demand you reimburse us!" Max yelled at Tsunade, while shaking a fist at her.
"Oh god," Naruto groaned, as he slapped his forehead at what Max just said.
"What did you call me?!" Tsunade yelled, as she grabbed Max by his throat and started shaking him.
"I called you a dollar hooker! Wait, that may have been in my mind" Max said.
Sam groaned at this, as even he knew where to draw the line.
Tsunade went red with anger, as she started to beat up Max.
"Will he be ok?" Garnet asked Sam, as she felt a little sorry for him.
"Toon logic princess. He can shake off most abuse, after a bit" Deadpool said with a shrug.
"Though he may take a day in this case" Sam said, as Tsunade was tying Max's ears in a knot.
Tsunade then threw Max at Sam's feet. "Put a muzzle on that idiot!" she yelled, before she stormed off.
"That's the best you got?!" Max yelled after her.
"Little buddy, I love you like a brother. But please, shut up" Sam said with a chuckle, as he picked up Max.
"This town is a madhouse," Naruto said with a sigh, as he rubbed his forehead.
"Yea, but it has its own charm" Olivier said, as she gave a nod of agreement.
"So, are we cool now?" Naruto asked her.
"Not yet. I want to know, are you accepting new members to your harem?" Olivier asked with a raised eyebrow.
This made people freeze, hearing her say this.
"Why do you ask?" Naruto asked her curiously.
"You are a good specimen of a man, and I'm interested in you," Olivier said with a smile.
"Oh god, it's the end of the world!" Mustang yelled out, with his hands on his head.
"Is anything real anymore?!" Deadpool yelled. He then pulled out a piece of toast with jelly on it, and dropped it. He then started yelling, "It fell jelly side down! The devil is near!" he yelled, as he ran off screaming.
"Hey wait for me, you owe me a date for sharing my sake!" Anko yelled out, as she followed Deadpool.
Riza then sighed, as she slapped Mustang in the shoulder. "That's what happens when you exaggerate" she said, while giving him a frown.
Mustang rubbed the back of his head, with a sheepish look on his face.
Olivier then approached Naruto's crew. "So, which of you is in charge of this harem?" she asked the woman.
"Uh, we don't really have anyone in charge," Tifa said.
Olivier gave a smile. "Oh good, so that means I can be in charge of it then" she said, while putting her fists on her hips.
"Hey, everyone is equal and I'm not budging on this," Naruto said firmly, as he gave Olivier a scowl.
"Of course darling, if that's what you want" Olivier said with a nod.
Mustang and Alex were shocked at Olivier's pet name for Naruto. "Maybe the devil is near" Mustang said, as he looked around as though trying to find him.
"I want to get to know your friends. We should plan a get together" Olivier said.
"Well, I have been wanting to meet my neighbors. So, how about we do that at my place" Naruto said, as he put his hand on his chin in thought.
"Perfect. We can have a barbecue, and invite all your friends" Olivier said, as she got ready to leave. She then handed Naruto a piece of paper. "Call me darling" she said with a smile, as she left.
Mustang then fainted, as this was too much for him to handle.
"Do you try to attract women, or is it like a curse with you?" Helen asked with a teasing smile, as she leaned against a tree.
"You know me better than that. I don't do this on purpose" Naruto said with a shrug, as he put the paper away.
"So, is it a curse?" Tinkerbell asked him.
"Not to me it isn't" Naruto said, as he didn't see having multiple friends as a curse.
Penny then approached Naruto, with a smile. "Thanks to you, I can finally move out of my parents place" she said, as she held up her sack of money.
"So, no more hearing your overbearing father?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.
"No, he's still your neighbor," Penny said with a smile.
"Damn, and I was looking forward to the peace and quiet too" Naruto said with a mock pout, as he crossed his arms.
"Oh, it's not that bad. Mom and Sugar Momma keep him in line" Penny said with a grin.
"And baby Sinclair," Naruto said with a laugh.
Penny nodded, as she too gave a laugh. "Yeah, him too," she said.
"So, where are you moving to?" Naruto asked her curiously.
"Me and my best friend Kim are gonna be roommates in a condo that's near my job," Penny said.
"Oh, and what's your job?" Tifa asked her with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh, I help my Mom run this animal sanctuary. She's helping me become a vet, like her" Penny said.
"Huh, I might visit there one day as I'm a natural with animals" Naruto said, as he put his hand on his chin in thought.
"I'm heading there now, let's go!" Penny said excitedly, as she grabbed Naruto's hand and dragged him off.
"Later guys!" Naruto yelled to his friends, as he gave them a wave.
"Well, we may as well try and plan that barbecue at his place" Lulu said, with a shrug.
"Is this like a feast?" Kida asked curiously, with a tilt of her head.
Tifa chuckled at this. "Not exactly," she said as they all left the area.
-0o0o0o0-
(Later with Naruto)
Naruto and Penny had just arrived at the animal sanctuary.
"Wow, this place is huge" Naruto said in awe, as they entered the building as he looked around.
"Well, it has to be. We have all kinds of animals, not just domestic ones either" Penny said with a smile, as she pulled Naruto over to some pens.
"Oh really? Like what?" Naruto said, as he looked into a pen that was themed after the Savannah.
"A pride of lions for one" Penny said, as they looked at a group of lions laying in the sun, near a giant rock structure.
Naruto noticed something in this pen, and smiled. "Hey Zazu!" he yelled to a bird that was in a tree near the lions.
The bird looked up and looked at Naruto, before he flew up to him and landed on his shoulder. "Naruto my boy, it's been a while," he said with a smile.
"Yes, it has. Are you doing OK here?" Naruto asked him.
"I must say, I certainly am. I found my friends quite easily" Zazu said, as he pointed his wing down to the pride of lions, who were looking up at Naruto curiously.
"Uh Naruto?" Penny asked with a raised eyebrow.
"It's ok Penny, I can talk to animals" Naruto said, as he gave her a smile while stroking Zazu's chest area.
"That's so cool. So this guy's name is Zazu huh?" she asked, as she stroked his back.
"Yea. I sprung him and some other animals from a horrible pet shop a while back, when Doom was in charge" Naruto said, as he frowned when he remembered how they all looked when he saw them.
"Don't worry my boy. The others made it here too" Zazu said. "Now, would you like to meet my friends?" he asked, as he pointed at the lions down below.
"Sure, I always found lions cool," Naruto said, as he jumped on the edge to jump down.
"Naruto!" Penny said, surprised with what he was doing.
"What? Do you want to come too?" Naruto asked her, as he held out a hand towards her.
"Miss Proud will be quite safe, so don't worry" Zazu said, as he flew down to the lions down in the pen.
Penny gave Naruto an inquiring look.
"He said you won't be attacked," Naruto said, as he held her hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze.
Penny blushed at this, but composed herself. "Ok, let's do this," she said.
Naruto smiled, and picked her up bridal style as he jumped down into the pen making Penny yell out in surprise.
When they landed, Penny was hugging onto Naruto.
"See, not so bad" Naruto said with a smile at Penny, as he put her down.
Penny caught her breath, and frowned at Naruto. "Give me some warning, next time you do that" she said as she put her hands on her hips.
Naruto laughed at this. "Relax, I won't let anything happen to you," he said.
They then noticed the pride of lions approaching them.
Zazu then landed in between Naruto and the lions.
"Introducing the king of the new pride lands: Mufasa!" Zazu said, as he gestured his wing at the lion.
"So, you are the human that helped Zazu escape that pet store" Mufasa said in a deep voice, as he sat down before Naruto.
"That was the least I could do. That pet shop was a disgrace" Naruto said.
Mufasa smiled and nodded at this, as he liked that Naruto wasn't bragging about what he did. "For helping him, you have my eternal gratitude," Mufasa said, as he bowed his head a little at Naruto.
Naruto felt a tug on his pants leg, and when he looked he saw a lion cub tugging on his pant leg.
"Simba," Mufasa said in a tired tone.
"It's ok," Naruto said with a chuckle, as he bent down to look at the cub. "You're just an adventurous little guy huh?" he asked Simba with a smile.
Simba let go of his pant leg, and smiled. "Yup, I'm gonna be king someday" he said as he sat down.
"Well, you know what's most important as a king right?" Naruto asked him, as he too sat down with his legs crossed while Penny crouched down next to him.
Simba thought about this, but frowned. "I don't know," he said sadly, as he looked down.
"It's ok. If you listen to your dad, you will someday" Naruto said, as he patted Simba's head lightly.
Simba smiled, and batted at Naruto's hand playfully before he ran back to Mufasa, who chuckled at his son.
"Well, It was nice meeting you all. But I have to go see the rest of the animal sanctuary" Naruto said, as he got up and helped Penny up.
"Feel free to visit anytime" Mufasa said, as he too stood back up.
Naruto and Penny waved, as Mufasa and his pride of lions went back to their home near the rock formation.
"So, how are we gonna get back - Hey!" Penny yelled, as Naruto picked her up bridal style again, and ran up the walls back to the observation deck.
When Naruto got back up, he put her down quickly with a smile. "You ok?" he asked her.
Penny lightly punched him in the shoulder. "You are incorrigible" she said with a light glare, as she crossed her arms over her chest.
"Hey, you can trust me. I won't drop you" Naruto said with a smile.
Penny smiled at this, and grabbed his hand. "Come on, let's go see more animals" she said, as they walked down the hallway.
-0o0o0o0-
(Little later)
Naruto and Penny were watching Dumbo fly around in his pen, happy to have so much room.
"I'm glad he has so much room now," Naruto said with a smile.
"Yea, the other workers still can't believe he can fly," Penny said with a smile, as Dumbo flew close to them and gave a smile before flying away.
"I bet," Naruto said with a chuckle, as they watched Dumbo fly to his mother, and then point at Naruto with his trunk with a happy smile.
"That's his mother, Miss Jumbo," Penny said with a smile, as Miss Jumbo waved at Naruto.
"I'm glad he found her here," Naruto said, happy for them both.
"So, you wanna go to the domestic zone?" Penny asked him.
"What's that?" Naruto asked curiously.
"It's where we keep the domestic animals, and it's also where you can interact with them and adopt them if you want to," Penny said, as she walked off with Naruto following after her.
"Oh, cool. I have been considering getting a pet" Naruto said, as he rubbed his chin. "But, I'm not sure what to get," he added at the end.
"Best thing I can tell you is to follow your gut," Penny said with a shrug.
Naruto nodded, as they entered a big area with a big field, that was really big. There were all kinds of toys, and things for the animals to do.
"Is this a sanctuary, or a farm?" Naruto asked, impressed with the size of this area.
"Well, you would be surprised how many keep showing up," Penny said with a frown.
Naruto nodded at this, as the more worlds that fell to the heartless the more animals would show up.
As they walked, they noticed in an area a dalmatian puppy, was pulling on the tail of a familiar dog.
"Chance? That you?" Naruto asked with a chuckle, at seeing Chance's predicament.
Chance looked at Naruto. "Hey! You're that human that sprung me from the joint! Naruto, right?" he asked.
"That's me," Naruto said with a smile. He then looked at the dalmatian puppy, which was still tugging on Chance's tail. "Having a problem?" he asked, chuckling slightly.
Chance rolled his eyes, as he looked at the dalmatian puppy. "This little guy thinks he's a tough guy, and wants me to teach him how to be a street dog," he said in a bored tone.
Naruto explained the situation to Penny, who squealed in excitement.
"You're so cute," Penny said, as she picked up the dalmatian puppy.
"Hey! I was fighting here!" the pup said in a boy's voice.
"Looked to me, like you were just being a pest!" Naruto said, getting the pups attention.
"Wow, you can speak dog?" the pup asked in wonder.
"Yup. What's your name champ?" Naruto asked, as he walked over.
"I'm Patch," the puppy said.
Chance snickered at this, as he got why he had that name since the pup had a spot over one of his eyes, like an eyepatch.
"Be nice Chance, you were a puppy once too ya know" Naruto said, as he gave Chance a knowing look.
"Hey, I let him chew on my tail. That's pretty nice" Chance said with a huff, as he laid back down.
"Where are Shadow and Sassy?" Naruto asked, as he looked around for said animals.
"The old man and that cat are around, probably getting food" Patch said with a small shrug, as Penny pet him.
"It's dinner time?!" Chance yelled out, as he got up and ran off.
"Put me down. If I'm late, my mom and dad will be mad" Patch said, as he wiggled in Penny's arms.
"Hold on champ, we will take you to them" Naruto said, as he held his hand out to calm Patch down.
Patch sniffed his hand, and licked it as he relaxed.
"You know where his parents are?" Naruto asked Penny.
"Oh yea, you can't miss them" Penny said with a chuckle, as she walked off.
"What?" Naruto asked her with a raised eyebrow, as he followed after her.
"Nothing" Penny said, as she giggled.
They soon approached an area, where it looked like a farm with a barn and a field
"This the place?" Naruto asked Patch, as Penny put him down.
"Yea! Hey, I'm home!" Patch yelled, as he barked and ran towards the barn.
The barn's doors suddenly burst open, and a large group of dalmatian puppies ran out barking happily.
"Holy cra -" Naruto was saying, before he was tackled by the herd of dalmatian puppies.
Penny laughed as the puppies swarmed all over Naruto, with a few of them sniffing him and some even licking his face.
"Now now, you all let the human up" a male adult dalmatian said, as he approached.
"Yes dearies, he's obviously surprised there are so many of you" an adult female dalmatian said, as she too walked over.
"I'll say, this is definitely a first for me," Naruto said with a laugh, as he got up and dusted himself off.
"You can speak dog?" the male dalmatian asked in shock.
Naruto shrugged his shoulders. "I can understand all animals, not just dogs," he said with a grin.
"That's so cool!" one of the puppies yelled, as the rest of the puppies barked in excitement.
Naruto smiled at the puppies, as he found their excitement cute.
"I'm Pongo, and this is Perdita. We are their parents. What brings you here?" the male dalmatian asked, as the two parents sat down.
"Well, I found Patch playing with another dog named Chance, and decided to bring him home," Naruto said with a shrug.
Perdita looked at Patch. "Were you bugging Chance again?" she asked him.
"He doesn't mind," Patch said, hoping that he wasn't in trouble.
"Yeah, Chance wasn't that bothered by him,'' Naruto said.
"I am so jealous of you,'' Penny said.
"What? Wanna talk to them too?" Naruto asked her.
"Yea. Years ago, I was able to talk to a tiger, but I wish I could talk to all animals like you" Penny said, with a frown.
Naruto thought about this, and soon had an idea. "I may have a way. You trust me, right?" he asked her.
Penny nodded, as Naruto approached her
Naruto made his hand glow with sage chakra, as he touched Penny's forehead.
"Woah!" Penny said, as she felt a rush of energy in her, which made her fall to her knees from the shock.
"You ok miss?" a puppy asked, as it sniffed Penny.
"Yea I'm fine" Penny said. But she paused, and looked at the puppy. "I can understand you" she said, surprised she could understand what the puppy said.
Naruto smiled at this. "I had a feeling you had some latent talent. So, I used my sage chakra to bring it out" he said with a shrug.
Penny smiled, and hugged Naruto. "Thank you so much. Now I can be a way better vet, thanks to this" she said happily.
Naruto smiled back, as he returned the hug.
They hugged like that for a few minutes, before they separated.

(Later)
Naruto and Penny were visiting some more of the animals in the domestic zone.
"These guys are doing pretty good here," Naruto said, as he petted Tramp and Lady, who were happy to see him.
"I would hope so. Me and my Mom work hard here" Penny said with a proud look on her face.
"So, when are you moving in with your friend Kim?" Naruto asked.
"Pretty soon actually. I am just waiting for Kim to get the ok for me to bring a pet" Penny said with a smile.
"Oh? And who are you wanting to adopt?" Naruto asked her curiously.
Before Penny could answer, they heard some barking and looked to see a group of dogs chasing some dogs away from an orange kitten.
Naruto recognized the white and brown dog, and the orange kitten and walked over to them.
"Hey Dodger, you and Oliver staying out of trouble?" Naruto asked, as he crossed his arms while raising an eyebrow.
Dodger smiled seeing Naruto, and walked over to him.
"As much as we can, Naruto," he said with a shrug.
"Who is this Dodger?" a male Chihuahua asked, as he ran over and sniffed at Naruto.
"Relax Tito, this is the guy that sprung me and the kid from the joint" Dodger said, as the rest of his group arrived.
"This is Rita, Francis, Einstein and Tito," Dodger said, as he pointed at each of the dogs.
Naruto nodded at the dogs in greeting. "Are you all doing OK here?" he asked, as he sat down in a nearby box.
"Yea, but it's tough keeping some of the more rough dogs away from Oliver" Rita said, as she laid down.
Naruto nodded, as Oliver was just a kitten and needed to be protected." Wait, nobody has adopted him yet?" Naruto asked curiously.
"Well, someone wants to but she has to wait to move out" Francis said, as he gave Penny a knowing look.
Naruto looked, and saw Penny holding Oliver who was purring happily at seeing Penny.
"Well, you won't have to wait long. I'm moving out now, so it's just a matter of time" Penny said with a shrug.
"Since when can she speak dog, man?" Tito asked, surprised.
"I learned it, thanks to Naruto," Penny said with a smile.
"Are you looking to adopt too, Naruto?" Dodger asked him, with a tilt of his head.
"I actually am," Naruto said with a nod.
"Well, don't look at us man. We prefer being guard dogs for the sanctuary" Tito said, as he tried to look and sound tough, despite his small size.
"Though if you want pets, I would suggest old man Shadow and his two friends" Francis said, as he laid down.
"Oh yeah, I just met Chance and I liked Shadow and Sassy when I met them before" Naruto said as he gave a slight nod, while rubbing his chin in thought.
"Those three would love to go with you. They seem restless here," Penny said as she scratched Oliver's head, who was purring in satisfaction.
"Well let's go, so I can fill out the paperwork for them," Naruto said as he rubbed his hands together.
Penny nodded at this, when her phone rang. And when she looked, she saw a message from Kim and smiled.
"Good news?" Naruto asked her, hoping that it was.
"Yup, it's official. I can have a pet at our place" Penny said, as she gave a megawatt smile.
Oliver's ears perked up at this.
"Looks like your days here are over, kid" Dodger said with a smile, glad that Oliver had a proper home now.
Oliver looked at Penny. "I can visit my friends here, right?" he asked.
"Yes, of course you can," Penny said with a smile.
Oliver smiled at this, happy to hear this.
-0o0o0o0-
(Later, at the front desk)
Naruto was at the front desk, filling out the paperwork for adopting Shadow, Chance and Sassy.
"There, finally done" Naruto said, as he placed the pen down.
"Good. You can pick them up, or I can bring them to your place tomorrow" Penny said.
Before Naruto could respond, his phone rang and when he looked he saw a message from Tifa.
"Olivier set that barbecue for tomorrow, so be at home then. Otherwise, she may hunt you down lol" the message said.
Naruto rolled his eyes at this, but smiled. "Looks like you will have to drop them off at my place. I'm having a barbecue tomorrow" he said.
"Oh good, your neighbors will like the chance to get to know you" Penny said with a nod.
"Well, it's open to anyone to come. You and your roommate Kim can come too if you both want to" Naruto said with a shrug.
Penny smiled at this, and nodded. She then wrote on a piece of paper. "Here's my number," she said, handing him the paper.
Naruto nodded, and took the paper before placing it in his pocket.
Naruto then left the sanctuary, and headed home.
-0o0o0o0-
(The next morning)
Naruto was in his kitchen, making some cup ramen, when he heard a knock on his door.
"It's open!" Naruto yelled, as he started to eat from his cup.
The door opened, and Tifa, Helen, Tinkerbell, Garnet and Lulu rushed in, with Olivier close behind them.
"You guys are here early," Naruto said, after he swallowed the ramen in his mouth.
"Yea, because she wanted us all here to help set up for this barbecue" Tinkerbell said, as she gave Olivier a hard look.
"Where are Lightning, Shego and Kida?" Naruto asked the group, as he didn't see them.
"Helping Logan, Mando, Beast and Stitch set up outside" Helen said.
"Is this a barbecue, or a party?" Naruto asked, as he finished his ramen and went to clean his pots.
"You ate ramen for breakfast?" Garnet asked with a disapproving look, as she and the others put their hands on their hips.
"I don't do that often," Naruto said, while sounding nervous.
"I call bull" Lulu said, with the others nodding in agreement.
Before Naruto could answer, the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" Naruto yelled, as he ran off
"This isn't over!" Tifa yelled after him.
Naruto ignored this, as he approached the front door and opened it. And saw Penny with Shadow, Chance and Sassy along with a bag of pet supplies.
The pets were surprised when they saw Naruto. "You're the one adopting us?" Chance asked him.
"Yup. This place needs good pets, and I figured you guys would be perfect" Naruto said with a smile at them.
Shadow walked over to Naruto, and sniffed him a bit and let Naruto pet him a bit.
Sassy walked into the house, and jumped onto a couch. "I could get used to this" she said, as she laid down with her eyes being half closed.
Chance ran into the house, and decided to sniff at everything that he saw. "I smell food!" he said, as he ran into the kitchen.
"Since when did Naruto have a pet?!" Helen yelled from the kitchen.
"Sorry, just got some," Naruto yelled towards the kitchen.
"Don't think this won't distract us from that ramen discussion mister!" Olivier yelled back.
Naruto groaned at this, as he knew one of them was gonna say that.
Penny walked in, and put the bag of supplies down. "This should be enough for a bit, until you get to the pet store" she said with a slight smile.
"Thanks Penny, you're the best," Naruto said with a thumbs up.
"Sweet talker," Penny said with a smile and a light blush.
"You wanna stay, and help with setting up for the party?" Naruto asked her.
"Sure. I already moved my stuff out to my new place, and Kim will be by later after she's done" Penny said, as she, Naruto and the other two pets headed for the kitchen.
They saw Chance sniffing at the garbage can nearby, looking for something to eat.
"Hey now, I'll get you some food so just wait" Naruto said, as he got out the bag of dog food Penny brought, while she got out the pet bowls with their names engraved on them.
"Sure a typical thing from you Chance, always going to the garbage bin for food" Sassy said, as she jumped onto the kitchen counter.
"You got a cat?" Lulu asked him in surprise.
"Yup. These are Shadow, Chance and Sassy" Naruto said, as he pointed to each of the animals.
"Well, it would be good for you to have pets to watch the place for you" Garnet said, as she pet Shadow.
"Do you leave your home often?" Shadow asked, while looking at Naruto.
"Yes, but don't worry. I am gonna call a housekeeper for when I do leave" Naruto said.
"I suggest Miss Peg, she's great at that," Garnet said with a smile.
"These dogs know how to guard a house?" Olivier said, as she looked at Shadow and Chance with a raised eyebrow, as if inspecting them.
Shadow's ears twitched, as he then ran out the back door.
"Looks like Shadow hears an intruder" Sassy said, as she helped herself to the food Penny gave her.
"Wait for me pops! I want some action too" Chance yelled, as he followed him.
Naruto and the others followed, and saw Shadow and Chance barking at a locked shed.
"What's in there?" Lulu asked Naruto curiously.
"Nothing," Naruto said quickly.
"It's his ramen stash," Tifa said flatly, as she gave him a flat look.
Olivier nodded and unsheathed her sword, and slashed the lock off and the door opened to show a pile of instant ramen, but that wasn't the surprise.
"Why the hell are you two in my ramen stash?" Naruto asked Deadpool and Max, who were being growled at by Shadow and Chance.
"We were looking for tools to build something for your party guests," Max said.
"Yea, so call off the Mcfly dog here!" Deadpool yelled, as Chance was biting at his leg, trying to drag him out of the shed.
"If you wanted tools, you should have just asked" Tifa said, as she gave them a glare.
"Though thanks to you, we found Naruto's stash of ramen, so I won't punish you this time," Olivier said, as she sheathed her sword.
Max grabbed a toolbox. "Found it!" he yelled, as he ran out of the shed.
"Get back here Rabbit, I wanna chew on your ears!" Chance yelled out, as he followed Max.
"What are you two loons and Sam building anyway?" Lulu asked curiously.
"You will see goth girl" Deadpool said, as he took off to follow Max.
"Now, for this" Lulu said, as she made a Fire spell in her hand, and looked at the pile of ramen.
"Don't you dare!" Naruto said, as he stood in front of the ramen with his arms spread.
"Isn't this a little much? Garnet asked with a frown
"Fine, but you're limited to one meal of ramen a day. And if you break this rule, I will make you suffer," Olivier said with a mean glare.
Naruto looked at Olivier, and saw that there was no wiggle room with her or the other girls.
"Fine," he said, as he slumped his head and looked down at his feet depressed.
Tifa patted his shoulder, as he walked out of the shed. "See this as a chance to try other foods," she said, trying to cheer him up.
"Yea, people will be bringing all kinds of food to this party. So try to expand your horizons a little" Penny said.
Naruto pouted at this, as the girls led him to the backyard to go help set up for the party.
"Our master is such a child" Sassy said to Shadow watching this.
Shadow chuckled at this, as they followed after Naruto and the girls.
-0o0o0o0-
(The backyard)
Naruto and the girls had just arrived into the backyard, and saw Max, Deadpool and Sam were still building their contraption.
Naruto saw Logan and Mando were setting up some big barbecues, and nearby was a table of hamburgers, hot dogs and steaks along with a variety of drinks.
"Do you think we have enough?" Naruto asked, as he approached them.
'Well, the invitations your newest woman sent out, said to bring a dish and beverages so yea" Logan said with a nod.
"Where's Grogu?" Tifa asked, as she looked around for the little guy.
"I set him up in a playpen" Mando said, as he pointed at a playpen nearby, where Grogu was playing with some toys.
Chance approached, and started sniffing at Grogu. "What the heck kind of baby is this?" he asked curiously.
"He's from another world, Chance but still be nice," Naruto said.
"You got pets?" Logan asked with a raised eyebrow.
"What? I like animals" Naruto said with a shrug.
"Where is Stitch?" Tifa asked, looking around slightly worried.
"He ran off to go get his Ohana, so they can meet Naruto," Mando said, as he finished setting up the barbecue.
"We are still missing something, we need beer," Logan said.
"Already ahead of you Logan!" Deadpool yelled, as he was directing a truck with a tap attached to it at the back.
"Oh great boys, that kind of party," Lulu said, rolling her eyes.
"Damn straight it is!" Deadpool yelled, as he gave her a double thumbs up.
"And knowing Stark, he will bring even more booze" Lulu said, as she rubbed her head in annoyance.
"Ugh, that man" Olivier said, remembering when he hit on her a while back.
"Well, if anyone gets rowdy I can leave them to you then" Naruto said to Olivier, who just smiled at Naruto.
"That's just mean" Shego said with a laugh, at the poor fool who needed to be corrected by Olivier
"Looks like we have some party guests incoming" Mando said, while pointing down the street.
"Good, then let's get to work cooking" Logan said, as he rubbed his hands together.
Moments later, Naruto's backyard was full of people carrying dishes with food in them.
"I'm just glad my backyard is so big," Naruto said, as he looked around at the crowd. Some faces he recognized, and some were new faces
"Hey kid," Naruto heard, and when he looked he saw Han and Chewbacca walking over.
"Hey you two, how've you been?" Naruto said, as he shook their hands.
"Pretty good kid. Normally we don't really go to things like this, but someone wanted to see you and wouldn't leave us alone until we brought her to you" Han said.
"Oh? And who's that?" Naruto asked him curiously.
Chewbacca pointed behind himself, and Naruto saw a familiar bunny girl who was poking her head round Chewie.
"Oh! I saved you from the Hulk before. Sorry I didn't get your name, Miss?" Naruto asked her.
The tall woman looked at Naruto. "You may call me Fran," she said with a nod of her head.
"Nice to meet you Fran. What can I do for you?" Naruto asked, as he handed her a bottle of water trying to be polite.
"You saved me during the Hulk's rampage. In my people's culture, that means I owe you a life debt" Fran said to him, which caused Naruto, Han and Chewie to look at her in surprise.
"That sounds familiar, huh buddy?" Han asked Chewie with a smile.
Chewie nodded at this, remembering how he and Han met.
"Well, if you're sure you're free to hang out with me. But I would like to be friends with you Fran" Naruto said, as he held out his hand to her with a smile.
Fran nodded at this, and grabbed Naruto's hand and shook it. "You are interesting Naruto," she said.
Naruto smiled, but was then tackled from behind by Shego
"Naruto, you have to hide me! And quickly" Shego said urgently.
"Woah, what's got you so freaked out?" Naruto asked her, wondering if there was an old enemy of her's or something at the party.
"My brother's have shown up to this party!" Shego said.
Han snorted in laughter at this, while Chewie started to growl in a way that sounded like laughter.
"Laugh it up fuzzy" Shego growled out.
"Am I missing something here?" Naruto asked curiously, as he looked between the three of them.
"Her family are heroes, and apparently she became a villain. But they want to see her, because of her helping you out with your saving the world's thing" Han said with a shrug, while still smiling.
"Sister!" a man's voice yelled out happily.
"Crap" Shego grumbled, with a sour look on her face.
Naruto looked, and saw four men approaching all in uniforms similar to Shego's, only with different colors; the man in front was blue, the other was purple and the last two were both red.
The one in blue pulled Shego into a hug. "I'm so glad you're a hero again!" the man said happily.
"Can't breathe Hego" Shego wheezed out, as she was turning slightly blue in the face.
Hego put Shego down. "Sorry" he said with a sheepish look.
The two twins approached Shego, and were happy to see her. "What kind of worlds have you been to?" they asked together.
"Yea, I'm curious about these other worlds myself" the brother in purple said curiously.
"Yes, hopefully they were better than the world we were stuck in, before we arrived in Traverse Town" Hego said with a slight shiver.
"Yea, that place sucked!" the brother in purple said with a nod.
"Language Mego" Hego said, as he gave his brother a frown.
"Oh please, Wego has heard worse" Mego said with a wave of his hand.
"You should still try to set an example," Shego said, with her hands on her hips.
"That's rich, coming from you," Mego said.
Naruto frowned at this. "Hey! Shego has done nothing but help me, so watch it!" he said, getting in Mego's face.
"Who are you?" Mego asked with a raised eyebrow.
"He's the Keyblader that big sis joined up with" Wego said together, like it was obvious.
"You don't even know what she has done, back in our own world" Mego said with a frown.
"I don't care, she's my friend. Heck, she used a Genie's wish to send you all to Traverse Town" Naruto told him.
"She did?" Hego asked in surprise, as the four of them looked at Shego with wide eyes.
"Yes, she did. So either watch the attitude, or I'll have Olivier throw you out" Naruto said to Mego, as he gave him a glare.
Mego looked over at Olivier, and saw that she had Deadpool in a headlock.
"Uncle! Uncle!" he yelled in pain. He then looked up, and whined out "Please Author San, make her let go of me."
Mego paled seeing this, as he had heard of how brutal Olivier was.
He then turned to Shego. "I'm sorry sis, I won't bring up the villain thing again" he said.
Shego rolled her eyes. "It's fine," she said with a shrug.
Naruto gave a nod, with a satisfied look on his face.
Shego grabbed Naruto's hand, and dragged him off. "Come on,'' she said.
"Later sis!" Wego said together smiling, as they waved after her.
Naruto looked perplexed, as he asked "Where are we going?"
"Away from my brothers" Shego said, as they approached a table with food all over it.
"They weren't that bad," Naruto said, as they grabbed a plate each and put some food on them.
["Are you kidding? That blue guy was such a boy scout, I wanted to kick his ass"] Kurama said with a glare on his face.
Naruto ignored Kurama, and turned to Shego. "I can see that they would annoy you, but still they are your family" he said, as he placed a hand on her shoulder.
Shego sighed at this, and nodded. "Yea, you're right. But still, they make me nuts sometimes" she said.
"Isn't that what family is supposed to do?" Naruto asked with a chuckle.
Shego rolled her eyes at this, but Naruto saw the ghost of a smile on her face. "Look whiskers, I'm gonna go get us some drinks, while you stay here" she said as she walked off.
Naruto nodded, as he looked around, He soon felt a tap on his shoulder, and when he looked he saw Kim Possible. "Yes?" he asked her with a raised eyebrow in curiosity.
"I saw what you did for Shego. I'm curious, if you make it a habit to make friends with ex villains" Kim asked him, with her arms crossed.
Naruto frowned at this. "Look, she's done nothing but help me. So, that's all I need to know. Plus, not all villains are irredeemable" he said to her.
Kim thought about this, with her hand to her chin. "Well, she isn't the worst of villains. She's got some ethics, and she refuses to kill, so if you trust her then that's fine with me" she said with a nod of her head.
Naruto nodded at this. "Glad you can see reason, and aren't just a pretty face," Naruto said to her with a smile.
Kim blinked at this, surprised Naruto said that. "Are you hitting on me?" she asked with a smirk, as she put her hands on her hips.
Naruto sputtered at this, but composed himself. "No, I was just telling the truth," he said with a nervous smile.
Kim smiled at this. "Dang, I was hoping that you were. From what Penny told me, you are a total sweetheart" she said.
"Penny? Oh! You must be her roommate Kim" Naruto said in realization.
"That's me, Kim Possible at your service" she said with a slight bow.
Naruto blushed slightly at this, as she was pretty.
["Ugh, you inherited your dads like of redheads"] Kurama said, while rolling his eyes at this.
"So, since you and Penny hung out, you wanna hang out sometime?" Kim asked, while getting closer to Naruto.
Before Naruto could answer, Shego returned with two sodas and she didn't look happy. "Hey princess, back off!" she yelled, as she got up close to Kim's face.
"Hey, I can hit on whoever I want!" Kim said with a scowl, as her and Shego's foreheads met.
"I was here first!" Shego yelled, getting some of the other party guests' attention.
"Cat fight!" Kiba yelled with a grin, seeing this.
"Someone get out the jello!" Max yelled, with a mad grin on his face.
"Don't you have a booth to set up?" Naruto asked him, with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh yea, this one will be a money maker!" Max yelled out, as he turned around and ran off.
Naruto then looked at Kim and Shego. "Look you two, if you want me to even consider dating either of you two, then you better get along with each other" he said firmly.
Shego and Kim looked at Naruto, then each other and glared at each other, then turned from each other and walked away.
"Bitch" Shego mumbled to herself, with an angry look.
"Hag" Kim mumbled to herself, with a frown.
Suddenly, Shego and Kim turned back to each other again, with looks of fury on their faces.
"The fuck you call me?!" they both yelled, as they attacked each other.
This got cheers from some of the party guests, as they started chanting at them to fight.
Naruto rolled his eyes at this, and left the area deciding to just let these two hash this out on their own.
As Naruto walked, he felt his hand grabbed by someone, who pulled him to a secluded area nearby.
"Tifa? Naruto asked, seeing that it was Tifa. "What do you need?" he asked her curiously.
"I wanted to talk to you, cutie," Tifa said with a wink at him.
Naruto raised an eyebrow at this, as this was new from Tifa. "Wait a minute" he thought, as he activated his senses. "Who are you?" he asked firmly, as he gave her a glare with his arms crossed.
She stopped smiling, and smirked in a way that was definitely not like Tifa. Her body soon changed, showing a blue skinned woman with short red hair and yellow eyes.
Naruto blushed darkly, seeing that the woman was naked and looked away. "W-who are you? he asked.
The woman chuckled at his reaction. "You may call me Mystique, Mr Uzumaki" she told him, with a slight bow of her head.
"What do you want?" Naruto asked, still not looking at her.
"I was curious about you, since Wanda has been talking about you so much," Mystique said, as she grabbed his chin to make him look at her.
"You have my attention now, Mr Uzumaki" Mystique said with a smirk, as she turned around and left into the crowd and soon was gone
Naruto shook his head, trying to recover from seeing this woman he soon recovered and walked back into the party
As Naruto looked around at the party, he saw some familiar faces. He saw Will and her Guardians along with Star Lord and his Guardians, talking while near a table.
"Hey guys, what's up?" Naruto asked, as he approached the two groups.
"Ah good, you can settle this dispute we're having here" Star Lord said, as he turned to him.
"Dispute?" Naruto asked curiously with a raised eyebrow.
"Yea, these Sci fi rejects think they are better Guardians then us" Irma said sounding annoyed, as she gave them a glare.
"Hey, at least we actually saved more than one world" Rocket said, as he gave Irma a hard look.
"I am Groot" Groot said with a nod, as he was playing on his game console.
Naruto groaned at this. "You guys are arguing over who's the better Guardians?" he asked, as he ran his hand over his face.
"Well, it's more like a debate," Taranee said with a shrug.
"You need to transform to be useful, and we don't," Drax said, as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"Yea, but we all have powers that don't need tech" Cornelia said, with a wave of her hair along with a smirk on her face.
"Oh please, we are actually trained" Star Lord said with a smirk of his own.
"I think this is a stupid debate" Gamora said flatly, as she stood off to one side.
"Ditto," Will and Hay Lin said together, as they stood next to her.
"Come on Naruto, tell us who the better Guardians are," Irma said, grabbing his arm.
"Hey I don't think Naruto should decide actually, as he'll say you guys since he obviously will go all lovey dovey over you five" Rocket said with a frown.
"Hey, most of us have boyfriends ya rat!" Will said, as she stomped over with lightning crackling all over her, which made her hair stand up.
"Plus, you know I'm not biased like that," Naruto said to him, with a raised eyebrow.
"So, who are the better Guardians?" Rocket asked him curiously.
"I'm not choosing. You guys are great at certain things, so stop being morons" Naruto said, with a shake of his head.
"Yea, this is beyond stupid. We are all on the same side" Gamora said, as she walked over.
"Oh fine, you have a point. We are on the same side" Star Lord said, as he crossed his arms.
"Ah fine," Irma said, while waving her hand dismissively.
"Good, I didn't want to get Olivier to make you stop fighting," Naruto said with a laugh.
"I am not scared of that woman, I could beat her easily" Drax said as he puffed his chest slightly.
"Oh really?" Oliver asked, from behind Drax.
"Yes, I could beat you any-" Drax said, before Olivier grabbed him and put him into a choke hold.
"Dead man walking" Rocket said with a laugh, as he found this funny.
"I am Groot" Groot said in agreement with a slight nod.
"My money's on the army chick" Cornelia said with a smile.
Naruto rolled his eyes at this, but let it happen as Drax had this coming.
Mantis watched this, and didn't like them fighting. So she approached Olivier from behind, and touched her head. "Sleep," she said calmly.
Oliver groaned, and fell forward fast asleep.
This surprised everyone, but her teammates.
"Woah, that was way better than your mind trick thing Irma" Hay Lin said with an impressed tone, as she looked at Irma.
Irma grumbled at this, while crossing her arms over her chest with a huff.
Naruto tapped her on her shoulder, getting her attention. "You are still cool, nobody is better with water than you" he said to her with a smile.
Irma smiled at this. "Thanks whiskers" she said, as she smiled back at him.
Naruto nodded as he left to go see the rest of the party
Will approached Irma with a smile. "Are you sure you want to pursue a guy with a harem?" she asked her with a raised eyebrow.
Irma nodded at this. "Yea, I'm cool with that," she said.
Naruto walked among the party guests, when he saw Tony talking with Luke and Mickey.
"Hey you guys, what's up?" Naruto asked as he approached them.
"Hey kid. Perfect timing, we were discussing an idea that I had for the town" Tony said.
"Let's hear it," Naruto said, as he crossed his arms.
"I was thinking of using an idea from a world that was destroyed years ago" Tony said
Naruto raised an eyebrow in interest. "What was the idea from this world?" Naruto asked him.
"A hero school" Tony said.
"Interesting idea, so what's the problem?" Naruto asked curiously.
"We don't think the students should be separated into hero and sidekick courses," Mickey said with a frown, as Luke nodded in agreement
"Well, not everyone has the abilities to be heros" Tony said with a slight shrug.
"Then train them," Naruto said like it was obvious.
"Well said Naruto" Mickey said with a smile, showing that he agreed with Naruto's suggestion.
"OK ok, but that means more funding will be needed" Tony said, as he rubbed the back of his head.
"I can help with that," Naruto said, as he took out a scroll. "This is full of treasure from a world I visited. You guys can have it, as long as you use it to help the town" Naruto told them.
Mickey took the scroll with a smile, and nodded at Naruto.
Naruto nodded at them with a smile, glad that he could help.
Naruto then heard some laughing and yelling coming from a crowd nearby.
"Wonder what's going on," Naruto thought, as he approached the crowd.
Naruto saw Sam and Max with a dunk booth, with Deadpool in the dunk tank.
"So this is what you loons were building,'' Naruto said with a smile.
Sam turned to Naruto with a smile. "Well, we wanted to try and make some money, so we can open up our freelance police office here in town," he said with a shrug.
"How's that going?" Naruto asked him.
Max slammed a bag of cash on the table. "Pretty good actually. People love dunking Wade" he said with a smile.
"There's a reason for that," Sam said with a chuckle, seeing Naruto's inquiring look.
"Come on, I can throw better than that with my foot!" Deadpool yelled at the current person trying to hit the target with a ball, who Naruto recognized as Konohamaru's friend Penni.
Penni threw her final ball, but missed as it hit the side.
"It's OK Penni," Konohamaru said, placing his hand on her shoulder, which made her freeze up and blush lightly.
"Oh God, it's another Hinata! Does she stalk you too monkey boy?" Deadpool asked, as he laughed while holding his sides.
"My turn" Mindy said, as she approached the table.
"Ooooo, it's the psycho with no powers" Deadpool said mockingly, but before he could continue to provoke Mindy, a throwing knife hit him in between the eyes.
"Oh God, that hurts!" he yelled out, as he held his wound.
"We have a winner!" Max yelled as he rang a bell, and handed Mindy a gift certificate.
"Aura reading?" she asked with a raised eyebrow. "What kind of name is biscuit Kruger?" she asked, seeing a name on the card.
Deadpool pulled the knife out and groaned. "Oh great, Author San is setting you up to get stronger and from a Shonen teacher too,'' he said.
"It's good for two people, Miss McCready," Sam said with a nod at her.
Mindy nodded, and walked off with her friends.
"You gonna be ok Wade?" Naruto asked with a smile, as he walked over to him.
"Yea yea, I have taken way worse harem boy" Deadpool said, as he looked for his next customer to mock. He soon spotted Sugar Momma with her family. "Hey old bat, if your here then what are the kids petting?!" he yelled.
Sugar Momma turned to look at Wade with a glare, and approached along with her family.
"Hey Penny, are you having fun?" Naruto asked her.
"Yea. This is a good party, and even my Dad is having fun" Penny said, as she looked over to where her Dad was dancing.
"I heard thanks to you, Penny can now move in with her friend Kim" Trudy said, while holding her two baby's Bebe and Cece.
"Well, I'm just glad something good came out of that spar she bet on," Naruto said with a smile.
"Are we gonna have to wait forever, or are you gonna throw a ball? Deadpool yelled out.
"Why don't you shut up ya fool?" Sugar Momma yelled, sounding irritated.
"You wanna start something? I'm right here. so buy a ball!" Deadpool yelled back.
Sugar Momma grabbed a ball, and threw it at the target hitting the bullseye, making Deadpool fall into the water below.
The people around laughed at this, and applauded Sugar Momma who gave a few bows.
Deadpool pulled himself out of the water, and sat back down. "Nice job old lady, but you know what they say about old people: consistency isn't your strong suit" he said with a mocking tone, as he made a throwing motion like he was weak.
Sugar Momma scowled, and put down a stack of cash in front of Sam and Max. "I'll take a hundred balls," she said with a confident smile.
This made Oscar, Trudy and Penny laugh, as they saw the anger in Sugar Momma's eyes.
"Aw hell" Deadpool groaned out, as the target was hit again sending him into the water.

(An hour later)
An hour later, and Deadpool was outside the dunk booth in the fetal position sobbing while sucking his thumb.
"Oh grow up ya big baby!" Max yelled.
"What the hell happened to you?" Anko asked, as she approached round the corner.
"It was horrible! It was worse than sitting through the new She-Ra!" Deadpool yelled.
"You were dunked into water, a hundred times," Naruto said flatly, with his arms crossed.
"You don't know my pain! I went through X-Men origins!" Deadpool yelled again.
"Oh shut up, you idiot. I can't believe I was gonna ask you out" Anko said, as she turned around to walk off.
Deadpool instantly stopped his crying, and ran after Anko. "Wait up babe! I know a great bar!" he yelled, as he catched up to her.
"Wow, I guess even crazy is attractive," Naruto said with wide eyes.
"Eh, seen weirder" Sam said with a shrug.
"Yea, lactose the intolerant was weirder," Max said with a nod.
"Do I even want to ask?" Naruto said with a raised eyebrow.
"Nah, just another loony adventure we had" Sam said with a wave of his hand.
"Well, you guys at least want to help people, so here" Naruto said, throwing them a small bag of gems. "That should get you an office building for your freelance police business" he said with a slight shrug.
"Yes! All hail the harem king!" Max yelled in joy, as he started to bow to Naruto over and over again.
Naruto rolled his eyes, and chuckled as he walked away from Sam and Max with a wave.
As Naruto walked through a crowd, he saw Tsunade and Logan having a drinking contest.
Naruto shook his head at this, and walked away as he knew that wouldn't end well.
Naruto soon spotted Stitch with a group of people. "Hey Stitch," he said as he approached the group.
Stitch looked at Naruto, and smiled as he ran over and started pushing him towards the people he was with. "Come meet ohana!" he said excitedly.
"Hey, watch it!" Naruto yelled, as Stitch pushed him onto Nani, making them both fall to the floor.
'Dang it Stitch!" Naruto yelled, as he got up. "You ok?" he asked, as he helped Nani up to her feet.
"Yes, I'm fine. I have been through worse" Nani said.
"Yea, if this is the only bad thing that happens today, it's a good day" Lilo said with a smile.
Naruto looked around at the group. "So your Stitch's family huh?" he asked, with a raised eyebrow as he crossed his arms.
"That's us, blonde boy. I am Jumba Jukeeba, a mad scientist who made 626" Jumba said with a smile.
"I'm Pleakley, nice to meet you Mr Uzumaki" Pleakley said with a wave.
"And you two are Lilo and Nani, right? Stitch has mentioned you two" Naruto said, as he looked at the girls.
"That's me," Lilo said, looking up at Naruto. "So you're the Keyblader that Stitch has been helping?" she asked.
"I hope he hasn't been making your journey harder to manage" Nani said, as she gave Stitch a knowing look.
"Actually, he was one of the first I met in Traverse Town, and yes he's been a great help" Naruto said, as he pet Stitch on the head.
"Heartless should be no problem for 626" Jumba said, as he crossed his arms with a proud look.
"I agree, he's been great at making them look weak," Naruto said with a laugh.
Suddenly the sky above darkened, and an image of the Horned King appeared on the sky towering over all of Traverse Town.
"Attention citizens of Traverse Town. I am the leader of the group that has been attacking your town" the horned king said.
This got everyone's attention, as some people looked scared while some looked ready to fight.
"What do you want?" Steve asked, as he got his shield ready just in case any more heartless showed up.
"We want Naruto to surrender himself to us. If he doesn't, we will send the army of villains and heartless we now have to attack your town. You have until morning" the horned king said, as his image then vanished and the sky returned to normal.
Everyone started to panic upon hearing this.
"Everyone, calm down!" Steve yelled, trying to get control.
Tifa frowned at this, along with the rest of Naruto's team. She caught the look on Naruto's face, and recognized the guilty look on his face.
"Oh no" she thought in realization, as she saw him take off across the rooftops.
Sakura and Tsunade saw this too, and turned to Steve. "You need to stop Naruto, now!" Tsunade yelled at him.
"He's gonna give himself up to them!" Sakura yelled too.
Steve saw Naruto leaving, and nodded as he touched his earpiece. "He's doing what we feared," he said into it.
