hey, guys! Sladerules here!

and I have a few things to say.

this story will not be updated until the 9th chapter is released. and for the time being, I plan on returning to my stories and fixing some mistakes. I have been so unfocused and busy that I haven't been able to make a decent chapter for my stories. and considering one of my stories is a reading for one of my favorite fics, I don't want to screw it up. So this will be the last chapter released for quite some time as I start going over and fixing my stories.

now, let's get back to the reading.

"hey! the Name's Naruto! glad to make your acquaintance!" the blonde man said,

"Hagaromo jii-san filled me in about what's happening, and pulled me over to look over this alternate reality."

Batman walked up to the man with cautious, calculating eyes , "you mean to tell me that you're part of this?"

"I'm just as much in this as you are. Both of our universes are effected by this."

"wait a minute," The man of steel said, finally speaking up, "is your plane of reality on the other side of the portal brought up in the story?"

Naruto nodded. "my home, the elemental Nations, is probably where you're at or going in the story."

Batman looked as if he had more questions for the shinobi leader, but Diana grabbed him by the shoulder, stopping him in his tracks. Bruce looked to the Amazon with narrowed eyes.

"Hagaromo seems to trust this man. and he brought us all together. We shouldn't worry about him being a threat."

Batman stood firm, but resigned reluctantly. He looked to the Seventh Hokage and spoke, "we will continue the story, but if you try anything, we'll put a stop to you."

Naruto put his hands up and nodded, "sure thing mr..."

...

"you may refer to me as Batman"

...

"batman?" Naruto asked curiously "are you part bat or something?"

at that, The Bat themed hero face faulted.

"no, my suit is themed off of a bat."

"why would you go bat-themed?"

"to strike fear into my enem-"

"bats aren't scary. They are tiny mammals"

"they're totally scary!"

"you should be named normal man who dresses like a bat. But we can discuss this later. On to the story!"

at the end of their little dialogue, all the sidekicks were laughing their asses off while the league tried to stay professional.

they failed

Batman looked in utter irritation. not only because he was called out in his suit, but because he was called out in front of everyone else.

Robin won't let him live this down.

so, with a sigh, he turned his attention to the screen.

timeskip: July 4th, 2011

"Aw man! I told you we would be last!" kid flash exclaimed to his mentor.

"huh?" Kid flash questioned. he wasn't expecting to see himself in the story!

Black Canary looked to the screen, with a thoughtful look, "looks like we have returned to our dimension,"

"aww," captain Marvel whined out loud. He really wanted to see the other dimension really bad!

Naruto looked to the chosen one of Olympus, 'damn, he acts like tobi! this is gonna be weird'

flash looked at him sheepishly before turning to the other heroes and their protoges as robin spoke.

"todays the day, huh guys?"

"what day?" Speedy asked. Apparantly they were all brought together for some event.

Clark looked to his friend, Bruce, "we actually agreed?"

"looks like it, but to what degree?" Zatara spoke up

"maybe it's just in name for now?"

"what are you guys talking about!?" Speedy asked again in irritance. he was getting tired of these secrets!

Arrow walked up to his protégé and explained, "from the looks of it, I would assume it would have to be about you guys getting started in the league."

at this, they all stopped,

...

"really!?" KF asked in excitement,

"my king, what an honor" Aqualad bowed in thanks to his king,

"it's about time!" Robin said with a smile,

Naruto looked to the students with curiosity. 'is this like the chunin exams?'

"let's get back to the story and we'll discuss this later," Hal said, to which the others agreed, but the protégés were all smiles.

"yeah" kid flash replied, "this must be the first time us sidekicks are all he-"

"don't call us sidekicks" speedy interrupted, "not after today"

"sidekicks?" Naruto questioned, only for speedy to explain

"that's what the world calls us, protégé. But at the end of this, we'll get the respect we deserve."

"what makes you think you deserve respect?" Naruto asked, which made the students look to him in shock, then anger.

"what do you mean, we don't deserve respect! we're the students of the world's heroes!" Kid flash exclaimed, but Naruto wasn't fazed

"and?," he asked, "a title means nothing on a mission. I trained to be a ninja for four years. and after my training, I didn't get promoted until my seventh year of service, but in that time, I developed and matured to the point that my skill and power was unrivalled. after that, I had to wait eight more years until I got my title as the Hokage."

at this, they were surprised. 19 years? Speedy looked to explode, but he held his tongue...

for now

after that statement, they continue to walk past the reporters and citizens.

ignoring their statements about them as they continued to small talk.

"sorry, I guess I'm just overwhelmed"

" you're overwhelmed, ice is underwhelmed, why can't people just be whelmed for once?" robin said randomly, until he saw the statues of the original seven before the hall.

"i guess that's why." the others silently agreed with him.

"heh, it's always amusing to see them gaze in wonder," Barry said, to which the others nodded to as the students looked to them in ire

they walk inside the hall and see martain manhunter waiting for them.

"welcome to the hall." flash told them as they walked further in.

"make yourselves comfortable as we have a briefing over the recent attacks."

the students looked to question this, but after what Naruto told them, they kept quiet.

he then turned to the other leaguers before turning to the zeta tubes to get scanned.

"That's it!?" speedy cried out in outburst

"i was expecting more than a glorified backstage pass!"

"complaining about a higher rank's demands? that'll sure get you there."

at that, speedy gave the shinobi an Icy glare

batman coolly replied, "you four are accessed to where few have ever been allowed to go."

but before anyone else could say anything, the zeta tubes lit up and out came two female teenagers.

the first one stood at 5 ft 6 with short black hair and hypnotizing blood red eyes. she wore a green vest with a mesh shirt underneath. she had black plants that stopped at her shins. her right thigh was bandaged and at her back was a small pouch with two scrolls above it. on her hips were small holsters for her knuckle blades. the girl showed determination and desire to prove herself.

right next to her was a shorter girl at 5. ft 2 with black hair and red highlights. her clothes matched ger hair color, being a black and red sailor outfit that showed her toned stomach and legs. on her hip, she had a red and purple scissors. she looked the opposite of her partner, looking ready to take on the world.

"who are they?" John asked, but no one seemed to answer. Naruto spoke up

"I know the first girl. She's Mirai, the child of my friends' sensei, but the other one, I'm not sure."

the other's looked thoughtful of this.

"Heh! I can't wait to see satsuki's face when she sees me one shot every one in the exam!" the shorter one boasted, which gained her an amused expression from her.

"oh why? so you can show her what she already did?"

"oh shut up!"

"they seem to know eachother, too." Martain Manhunter stated, but it brought more questions than answers.

"Really!?" speedy cried out, gaining their attention.

"so, what!? Are we just special visitors!? you know what forget it! i'm out!" and with that, he threw his hat on the ground and stormed out, ignoring green arrow's protests against it.

"damn, If one of my shinobi did that to me, he'd be demoted to the fricking janitor." Naruto exclaimed, which broke the camel's back

"THAT'S IT!" speedy lunged to the Hokage with a fist flying, aiming for his face, but in the blink of an eye, he had a fist in his gut before everything went black.

the heroes looked in disbelief. other than Flash, Wonder Woman, MM and Superman, they had no Idea what just happened! they could barely keep up with what he just did!

"I have a twelve year old gaki at home who tries me every day. That punch could be seen a mile away.

he was on his way to chase him, but batman put his hand on arrow's shoulder. "let him go," he said, "he needs time. and considering the way he behaved, he couldn't been able to attend."

green arrow sighed in submission, knowing he's right.

"attend?" Aqualad asked. No one knew what they were referring to, but Naruto had a good idea on what it was.

"wait, attend what, my king?" aqualad asked with a calm, but curious expression. his question was followed by robin

"yeah, what were you gonna have us do?"

"and who are these two!?" kid flash asked loudly.

Kid looked a bit sheepish at that,. maybe he should turn it down a notch

"these two are…"

"team FISHCAKE!"

...

"oh no,"

Superman looks to the shinobi,

"is something wrong?"

"no, I just figured out who these guys are. just watch."

The shorter one yelled out pulling out her signature scissors, before pulling them apart as they increased in size, turning into meter long blades that looks like two pieces of a broken pair of scissors. Before anything can say anything, she continues her introduction smoke surrounds her.

"From the heart of Themyscira to the peak of Mt. Myoboku, I am the number one Amazon Student of Naruto Uzumaki: RYUUUKOOOO!" She posed with both blades in her hand panting loudly as the people in the room look at her with a stupefied expression except her friend, who looked at her annoyed.

...

"they are you're students?" the Amazon asked, only to get a sigh in return

"no. Mirai was trained under my advisor, who trained under her father, Asuma. Based off of what was happening, she and this other girl trained under me."

everyone gained a face of understanding.

Aquaman looked to him in confusion, "then you taught her to make such a crazy entrance like that?" this got his eyebrow to twitch in annoyance

"no, that's something my master, Jiraiya used to do. that ryuko girl must have heard about the stingy perv and rubbed off of the guy,"

the girls seemed a bit irked at the idea of his teacher being a perv, but they were more worried of a girl rubbing off of a pervert.

"... oh, and Mirai here is number 2"

"hey! you may have raw strength and speed in advantage, But I'm smarter and more versatile!"

"you don't speak words when your fighting!"

"it's not like I monologue in my fights. besides, we're team Maelstrom! not Fishcake!"

"It's the same thing!"

"hehe, looks like they're rivals," just great. Female rivals are far harder to deal with than males!

the heroes gave the shinobi a look of pity. that was a bummer

"ahem..." Batman Cleared his voice, gaining their attention. They glared for a minute for they turned back to the others in the room.

"Anyways, we are representing our homeland, where our exams will be taken."

"i'm sorry, exams?" Robin asked with his general attitude increasing. The others weren't fairing any better.

"I'm sorry, but I have to agree with mr. Uzumaki here," John Stewart said to the heroes in training, "respect isn't given, it's earned. and you guys aren't earning anything with that attitude and behavior."

Aqualad looked down in disappointment, knowing his flaws. Kid Flash and Robin looked away in defiance, but inwardly they were cringing.

Speedy was drooling on the floor

"Yeah, the chunin exams, where our best of the young generation goes through multiple testings based off of real life situations and seeing how we fair against them and If we're ready for the next step."

"what!? We have to take a flipping test first!?" Kid flash cried out, "hasn't fighting alongside you for years enough!?"

ok, maybe they're right about them being a bit too whiny.

but before anything else can be said, Superman appears on a screen. "Batman, Cadmus has been caught in a fire. I suggest looking into it as soon as possi-"

"Zatara to justice league," Zatara interrupted with urgency in his voice. "Wotan is in the progress of blocking out the sun."

Superman looks to Zatara's screen, then back to batman. "it's only a small fire. All available members will be given the coordinates"

"I take it as criminals in you're realm?" Naruto asked, gaining a nod from Zatara,

"wotan is a mystic that has caused us problems in the past,"

Naruto nodded in understanding

"Coordinates received," He replied, before turning to the young protégés, "stay put. We will discuss more when we return"

"what do you mean? I am sure that we can deal with the fire in Cadmus," Aqualad stated calmly with a reasoning tone.

Aquaman spoke up "you guys aren't ready-"

"since when?" Kid asked him. Before his own mentor answered him

"he means you're not ready to be a team."

"you'll get your chance soon enough"

I swear, every complaint I hear from here on out will result in a deck in the kisser!" Naruto yelled in annoyance, as the sidekicks all paled

and with that, they left to deal with Wotan. Leaving the Apprentices with the two females.

"not ready? Not ready!?" robin shouted out, "does years of working with him not prove enough!?"

"my mentor," Aqualad softly said, "my king. I thought he trusted me."

"that's two already,"

Mirai looked awkwardly at the group and decided to try to calm them down.

"now let's all relax." She stated, trying to diffuse them all, gaining the attention of the others, including Ryuko, "We can talk about this reasonably. How about we head to the HQ and vent out in the trai-"

"wait a minute," Robin cut her off, "what do you mean as in 'HQ'? isn't this the HQ?"

"what!?" the students yelled in response. The heroes looked surprised that she knows about the watchtower.

"well, this'll be interesting," Naruto replied, "but I'd rather watch it, so why don't we lose the hostility before I am forced to intervene?"

everyone paused at his dangerous tone, and reluctantly stood down

Mirai mentally cursed for her slip up, but before she could correct herself, Ryuko spoke up.

"Nope! We are in the pitstop to the real one in the watchtower satellite! I do believe you were gonna go, but due to the recent events, we had to stop right before you went. We came down mainly because we were wondering what was taking you so long." She said it rather impassively, but the sidekicks took it the wrong way.

"of course they would,"

"their HQ is In space!? why haven't we heard of this before!?" Kid outcried followed by Robin,

"better question is, why didn't we leave with speedy?" which made the other two silent.

"from two to four, you guys are on a roll!"

"because that would ruin your career!" Mirai cried out as if it was obvious, causing them to turn to her as she continued.

"We all are here because we are acknowledged for our skills and abilities that could possibly take part in protecting humanity. We can't let such an opportunity go to waste!" as she finished, Ryuko continued where she left off

"yeah, she's got a point. Do you really think bitching about this will get them to turn their heads? Even I have to be patient. I have to wait for half a year for the chunin exam, and even longer to get myself ready!"

"it's nice to see some kids with a bit of respect. especially girls." Diana said, which gained a small agreement from Hawkgirl and Black Canary.

"Like we care what you have to say!" Kid blurted out, "You shouldn't even be here! This was supposed to be the day we become members of the league! but now, we have to wait even longer! And what's worse, you just pop out of nowhere like this is an average occurrence for you!"

"oooh, now you're whining to the people around you! lets double it then! from four to eight!" Naruto could swear if they could lose more color, they would be transparent.

"we have worked our asses off to get here." Robin said with a pissed off expression, "and what have you done? get permission from daddy to pick u-"

"whoa, whoa, whoa! Back up!" Naruto looked to the boy wonder who was seconds from pissing himself.

hopefully he can hold it in

"You, Traffic light,"

shit

*now the scene of Naruto beating Robin to near death will be too gruesome and I must continue without showing*

...

...

*nevermind, I want to write that*

Naruto grabbed the boy by the collar and pulled him to a clear area a few meters away from the heroes, so they can all see.

"you want to go against the big leagues, huh?" Naruto asked, "well, then lets have a spar." Naruto got into a stance that resembled Taekwondo.

Robin was scared beyond his mind! this guy, who apparently trained nearly his entire life and took Speedy out in one blow is pissed off with him now! and considering that he's from another dimension, there's no telign what he has up his sleeve! shakily, he got into his own stance.

whether he liked it or not, he was there. It's time to face the music.

Robin charged forward and attempted a front kick, but Naruto pushed his foot down and sent a quick and hard jab to the lower abdomen. the jab was followed by two jabs to the face and neck. Then, before Robin can recover, Naruto grabs him by the arm and pulls him into an elbow to the ribs, shattering them and gaining a cry from dick.

Bruce was furious. this man first insults him, then he decides to damage his pupil? 'This man must be stopped,'

but before he could walk any further, The Martian intervened.

"Batman, Dick needs to learn. and if this is how he will learn, then that's what has to happen." Martian Manhunter said.

Batman looked like he was ready to blow, but he stood down. It was right. Dick had to be broken to learn under the mantle. and now, Naruto was breaking him.

and he seems to be good at it. Dick was on the floor, out cold. his arm was bending in three different ways, he had five broken ribs, bruises and cuts all over his body. blood on the floor, due to all the blood he coughed out. Naruto looked at the downed sidekick at his feet. he crouched down and put his arm over the boy, as it started to glow green and Robin's body started to fix itself. he looked to the dark knight.

"I'll continue to heal him until he's ready to rejoin us. you may continue,"

the dark knight looked to his downed apprentice in sadness, but hoped that this would help him learn. he nodded to the shinobi as him and the other heroes went back to the show.

Aqualad looked in shock and sadness. He pitied Robin for his pain, but he can't deny that he really deserved it.

Kid Flash was appalled to what he just saw, but he was too scared out of his mind to say anything.

Speedy was still out , and it looked like He'll be out for a few more hours.

at that, Mirai punched him in the gut before sucker punching him in the face. He flew a few meters away before slamming on the wall.

"kinda deserved that" Dinah said

"Don't you EVER badmouth my dad again!" she yelled with glassy eyes. Before she can continue, Ryuko grabbed her by the arms and held her back from murdering the boy wonder. " I have trained to the bone every Night and day for my dad! So I can be like him and care for my mom! I have trained till I dropped and proved my worth! so Don't tell me what I can or can't do!"

at that, they looked to the girl in a sense of understanding. They all have suffered loss in some way or another. so they can all relate.

Robin looked at her shocked while holding his jaw. He was not expecting that for an answer. But before he can say anything, she storms off to the couch to sit down with Ryuko. The room stayed silent, until Aqualad spoke up.

"what is cadmus?"

"ten! for breaking protocol and going against your superior's wishes,"

at that, the other two lost color again, remembering that he was still counting.

As he said that, he just finished healing him to the point where the bones were mended and he was able to get up, but the wounds and small cuts. The boy began to awake, and saw The man who beat him to a bloody heap.

"gaah!" Robin freaked out, He didn't want another beating. But based on the man's features, he wasn't planning a beating. Naruto looked to the injured boy as he, himself, knelt down to the guy.

"I plan to discuss with you and the others after this." Robin was petrified of the idea of facing him again, but he had no way to escape this. and Considering the League watched him get beaten to the ground, He doubts that they'll oppose either. so with a forlorn and frightened expression, he nodded and the two returned with the others.

the others looked at him curiously, before pondering on the question themselves. Robin gained a mischievous look in his eyes. "I don't know, but I can find out."

Batman glared at his student, who looked away

he pulls out a hologram on his wrist before hacking the system.

"dude, seriously. How are you doing that?" Kid asked, gaining an amused expression from Robin.

"the same system in the batcave,"

"it looks like we need to update the security system for the hall of justice," J'onn said, which the others silently agreed with.

If a 14 year old boy could crack the security system, imagine what some of the smarter villains could do.

"I wonder how long it took for you to learn that? must have been a couple hours because you obviously lack the patience to wait any longer." Mirai mumbled loud enough for everyone to hear, but they all chose to ignore it.

robin flinched, and looked to Naruto, who paid him no mind, He was going to deal with them all later.

"Appears to be a base for organic experimentation, But that's it. I'm pretty sure there's more to this though."

"I guess it's best we check it out." Kid flash said, "It'll be poetic justice"

"And they're all about justice"

"It's illegal, and Insubordination, NOT justice!" Diana yelled, and each of the students flinched.

Aqualad spoke up his opinion, "are you sure this is a good Idea? they said to stay put." this only got an incredulous look from the other two.

"man, they didn't even tell us about the real HQ in space. What do we have to lose?"

"our trust," Aquaman said

"your life" Mirai heatedly stated

"your career" Aqualad stated

"your dick" Ryuko stated, which gained her horrified looks from the males and a deadpan look from her friend.

"it could happen"

all the males looked in horror, while the females had amused faces. Naruto just facepalmed

"my god, what did I teach that girl?"

"a-anyway" Robin stated trying to get back on topic, "We might not get another chance at this again!" Aqualad looked at the other two, before giving in and deciding to go with them. Robin then looked to the two females.

"how abou-"

"Go fuck off" Mirai interrupted, which caused him to flinch. Maybe bringing up her dad was a bad move. Seeing that they weren't gonna change their mind, He gave in.

Robin looked in regret. He never meant to insult her father like that.

"fine. Let's go guys!"

and with that, the three apprentices went out and left. Leaving the two girls alone.

Ryuko looked at her friend with a worried expression. "you okay?"

*sigh* "yeah, I'm fine." she replied, "it's just, I want to be just like him. He died before I was even born and I never actually saw his face in person before. How can I be like him, even though I never knew what he was like in person?"

at that, everyone had forlorn expressions. even the ever so serious Batman had a look of condolences.

She looked at her friend with a sad expression. they both lost their fathers to the evil of their worlds. They all depended on each other to make their sensei proud and live up to him.

Diana looked to the Hokage with a small smile. He must be an honorable man for them to look up to him.

"Hey, don't worry, I got you. And how about we head Back to Japan and eat with Mako's family? I bet it will take your mind off of the current situation."

Mirai gave her a small smile, thankful for her being there for her. She nodded and she began to walk to the zeta tubes before pulling out her cell and dialing a number.

At this, they all were happy for those two. It's always good to have a friend to share your pain with.

"hey, Annie, It's mirai... nah, we're fine. I was just wandering if you could head to this cadmus place to back up a couple guys going off of protocol... yes, they are their apprentices... Well, I would, but one brought up my dad and now I feel out of it... oh thank you so much! Me and Ryuko are heading to Mako's back in Japan, Drop by when your done... Yes, I'll pick up donuts on the way there... alright, bye."

"who was that?" Hawkman asked, only for Naruto to give him an answer.

"well, most team squads are made up of three students and one sensei. that's probably my third student. though who, I can't tell." the others nodded in understanding

she hanged up before looking to her friend.

"Alright, Annie's got their backs as backup. We need to get donuts though."

"Annie?" the man of steel asked Naruto, only to get a confused look,

"doesn't ring a bell"

"alright, TO THE DONUTS!"

"hehe, she seems to know how to have fun though," Naruto said, before looking to the students.

*yaaawn* "what I miss?" red arrow said, only to look up to Naruto.

"let's have a little talk"

And there you have it!

There won't be another update until the tenth update on the original story.

until then, feel free to check out my other stories and please review

That's all for now,

Ja Ne!
