(?)

Relief was what Naruto felt as he had successfully defeated all the Pain's and protected his village. Even the many lives that were lost were now returned, all because of his former enemy now sibling student Nagato, bearer of the Rinnegan.

"I can't thank you enough, Nagato." Naruto said in full gratitude towards the former redhead as his hair had now turned a ghostly white.

"Naruto, can I ask you something?" Nagato asked in a raspy voice, looking at Naruto with complete seriousness.

"Anything. What is it?" Naruto answered quickly, seeing the dire state Nagato was in.

"Do you believe your village will ever truly accept you for who you are?" Nagato asked in full seriousness, knowing full well the treatment of a jinchuriki and knew it was next to impossible to ever be truly acknowledged while being one.

Naruto was shocked by the man's question and thought back on his life, remembering the beatings and solitude he suffered throughout his life. Even with the few people that have accepted him, he was still alone. Even as he got older he could still see the fear and worry in peoples eyes when they saw him.

"No. I don't think they'll ever accept me for who I am, but where am I supposed to go? Wherever I go, all I will ever be seen as is a monster." Naruto said, casting his head down in sadness.

"What if I could send you somewhere where no one would know who you are or even what a jinchuriki is? It would be a fresh start for you." Nagato explained to Naruto as the blond gave him a look of confusion.

"Where would that be?" Naruto asked in both confusion and wonder about where Nagato was talking about.

"It's a place called Mandalore, it's in another dimension. My father was from Mandalore before he came here and met my mother, who like yourself was an Uzumaki." Nagato explained getting a look of disbelief from the blond Uzumaki.

"Wait, you're an Uzumaki? Are we related in some way?" Naruto asked both confused and curious about having a living family member he could have made a connection to.

"Maybe we are cousins in some way, but I can't be too sure. As far as I'm aware, my mother had no living family, but all Uzumaki that are still alive are related by some distant ancestor." Nagato explained, actually giving some thought to how close the blood relation between him and Naruto was.

"Okay, how do I get to Mandalore? I can't exactly cross dimensions." Naruto said, seeing the smirk on Nagato's face.

"With the last of my power, I can open up a portal that will breach through the veil between worlds so you will be transported to somewhere on Mandalore, but I will need your help." Nagato explained to Naruto as he looked somewhat confused.

"Okay. How do I help you?" Naruto asked, ready to help his fellow Uzumaki, who was giving him a second chance at life.

"First, we need to join hands and combine our chakra." Nagato explained.

Naruto did as instructed. They both held hands and closed their eyes to concentrate and a few moments later, a blue portal suddenly appeared looking like it cut through the very fabric of reality itself.

"Whoa, we did it Nagato." Naruto said, amazed by the portal.

"Yes. Now, Naruto before you go, I would like to say goodbye and give one parting gift." Nagato said placing both of his hands over Naruto's eyes and focused his chakra into them, causing Naruto to feel a moment of dizziness.

"Whoa. What was that?" Naruto asked, overcoming his sudden dizziness.

"It was my gift to you. Now before you go Naruto there is something I must ask of you." Nagato said wanting to make a final request

"What" Naruto asked him willing to complete whatever his request was

"Take Konan with you" Nagato said surprising them both "Konan I know you you'll stay in the rain village and watch over me and Yahiko but we want more for you if anyone in the world deserves a second chance at another life it's you and Naruto so please for us...go" he said to her making her frown and nod at him

"I'll miss you Nagato" Konan said as she used her paper and summoned up some large paper origami birds stealing a trick from Deidara's book and had instructed them to take him and Yahiko to a special chamber

"Alright. Goodbye, Nagato" Naruto said before jumping straight into the portal with Konan as it closed not a moment later.

"Goodbye my friend" Nagato said as he died at that moment as he was mummified and the paper birds carried him and Yahiko away

(with Naruto and Konan inside the portal between the Elemental Nations and Mandalore)

Naruto was currently inside an empty space lying down on the 'ground' a little dazed as two figures began to approach him.

"Hello, Naruto." A familiar voice rang through Naruto's ears. He looked up and saw the Fourth Hokage aka the Yellow Flash or less commonly known, Naruto's father alongside a beautiful redheaded woman, who wore a green dress.

"The Fourth Hokage?" Konan said as she knew this man was also her sibling student as Jiraiya trained him after he finished her and her friends training

"Dad." Naruto said seeing his father once again, even after the brief meeting they had earlier during his fight with Pain.

"Hello, Naruto." The beautiful redhead spoke to him with a truly caring and honest smile.

"Who are you?" Naruto asked, not really knowing who the woman in front of him is.

The woman's eyes were now saddened that the blond didn't know who she was, but kept her smile and got an idea. "Well Naruto, how about you guess who I am." she said to him with a small smile

Naruto looked at the woman very carefully, trying to figure out how she knew him and what the connection was between them until he had a sudden realization of who the woman might be.

"Mom?" Naruto said getting the woman to smile and suddenly hug him with tears coming down her face and after Naruto's shock began to wear off, he hugged the woman back with his own tears traveling down his face "Ya know, I have always wanted to meet you, mom." he said with tears

"Ya know, you really are my child." Kushina said, wiping away her tears as she smiled brightly at her child.

Konan gave a small smile as she knew this was a moment she should leave alone

(15 minutes of explaining and crying)

"Well Naruto, we would like to give you something before you go to this new world called Mandalore." Kushina said, looking towards Minato who nodded and brought out three scrolls.

"Naruto, your mother and I have put something special in each of these scrolls just for you. The first has multiple copies of my jacket and yours from when you fought Pain. The second has me and your mother's knowledge and notes on Fūinjutsu or sealing. And the third one has the knowledge to my signature technique, the Flying Raijin, but you'll have to practice to get a good grasp on it." Minato explained to his son, who had a gobsmacked expression upon being bestowed the most powerful information the Elemental Nations have ever known but was snapped out of his shock as his mother stepped right in front of him.

"Naruto, I want you to close your eyes for a moment." Kushina said as she did the same and rested her head against Naruto's and suddenly a golden light enveloped both of them and as it died down, Naruto felt like something had been awakened from deep inside his body and looked at his mother, who was giving him a smile.

"Before you ask Naruto, I just gave you my gift and it'll come to you in your time of need and when you use it, it'll be hard to master, but I believe you'll be able to do it." Kushina said, not really telling Naruto 'what' she gave him.

"You're Konan right?" Minato asked her knowing her description from Jiraiya

"Yes" Konan said as she didn't know what to expect from him as only hours ago she was here with the express purpose of stealing the nine-tails from Naruto killing him

"Watch after Naruto" Minato said to her very seriously "if he's anything like his mother he'll need someone to watch his back" he said receiving a fist to the face courtesy of Kushina

"I'm sorry want to repeat that" Kushina said to him with a smile as she had a dark aura around her

"Nothing dear" Minato said as he had a bump on his head

Suddenly, both his parents began to become transparent, meaning they were almost out of time, making this the last time he'll ever see them.

"Well, I guess this is goodbye." Naruto said with a sad smile on his face.

"Yes it is, but Naruto, I just want you to know there is no possible way to say how immensely proud I am of you and I am in awe of the man you've become." Minato said crying with an honest to god smile as he hugged his son.

"Naruto I want you to know the day you were born was the happiest day of both mine or your father's lives and when we died, leaving you all alone was the hardest most difficult thing me or your father ever had to do. We love you so much." Kushina said, crying as she joined in on the hug and as the parents started to fade, Naruto could feel himself continue on his journey to Mandalore.

(Concordia)

'Oh fuck' Naruto thought as he found himself in a large tomb

"I swear" Konan said as she got up 'I swear Kakazu and Orochimaru' she thought as those two were grave robbers and she had to sometimes go with certain members to monitor them and then noticed Naruto was looking at her strangely

"Whoa." Naruto said in surprise

"What?" Konan asked him wondering what his deal was

"You're younger" Naruto said as he couldn't stop staring

Konan walked up to a tomb and saw her reflection as it was made of a chrome like metal 'I'm around his age' she thought as she looked around 16 or 17 she had high E-cup breasts, curvy body, and a plump round ass

"Greetings" a glowing blue spirit like man said to them

"Ahh, ghost!" Naruto said as he threw a rock at the spirit and watched as it just went through him

"Who are you?" Konan asked as this was creepy but she had seen many horrors being in the akatsuki

"Tarre Vizsla" Tarre said to them introducing himself "I was a Jedi and the power you both excuse is astounding and we would like to teach you to use your abilities" he said to them

"We?" Naruto and Konan asked curiously

"Hello young ones my name is Jolee Bindo" Jolee said introducing himself

"You both have much darkness in you" a heavily armoured man said to them as he had glowing yellow eyes and had a dark styled armor "I am Darth Bane" he said to them happily

"Ok you old and bald, and you look like a badass samurai" Naruto said as he pointed to the new arrivals

"I like this one" Darth Bane said laughing a little as he looked at Naruto

"Can I ask why or what spirits want with us" Konan asked as she wondered how this was possible

"You two have caused a distortion in time itself" Jolee said to them "things have changed you have altered destiny and changed things here in the present events are happening later and sooner then they were suppose to"

"Awesome" Naruto said with a smile

"This one would've made a good sith" Darth Bane said with a chuckle as he could sense Naruto was one of chaos

'Back off samurai dude' Kurama said as his voice was heard by everyone

"Excuse me young one how is that...awesome?" Jolee asked

"Because destiny is bullshit" Naruto said to them

'Ironic coming from the child of prophecy' Konan thought suppressing a laugh as Jiraiya once told her about the prophecy

"You have a spirit inside of you." Darth Bane said as he was impressed by the loud dark voice and began to glow red "yes much darkness and rage" he said loudly

'Yeah so don't try anything or we're throwing down' Kurama said

"I would like to talk about this more but we need to begin your training and teach you what we know" Tarre said as he hated all the noise in his tomb

"As what?" Konan asked as she was always one to be curious and question one's intentions

"Jedi/Sith/Grey" the spirits said giving the others a look

'Ugh and I thought the conversations with my siblings was weird' Kurama thought to himself as this was strange

"Let us begin" Tarre said to them

(2 years later)

Naruto walked out the tomb he and Konan used with permission from Tarre as a place to live for a while, he was wearing black chest armor that had an orange uzumaki symbol on the back, black metal boots that went to his knees, and gauntlets that went to his elbows that had an orange leaf symbol on the back of his palms, he had a high tech thin mask similar to his sensei, he had two light sabers one looked like a black sword hilt and light with a white aura to it and the second lightsaber was 'Dominix V2' that had an orange light

Konan then walked out as she was wearing navy one piece body suit that stopped at her shoulders, navy gloves that went to her elbows, and orange thigh high combat boots and belt, she also had twin lightsabers(Temple guard Pike) that were black and red in design but their color for them one had yellow while the other was blue

"Well how the hell do you wanna leave this moon?" Konan said as they learned Nagato messed up the location of the portal as he had them sent to Madalore's moon

"Tarre said he died on this moon but before he did he said he always hid his ship" Naruto said as Tarre used this moon as a small base of operations

"The ship must be rusted by now hell we'll be lucky if it turns on" Konan said as Tarre was around during the early days before the Galactic Republic

"Well we could always try taking one from those Death Watch douches" Naruto said as thanks to their ninja skills they avoided the group composed of a couple scores of mandalorians

"Please we're lucky we could steal their metal to make your armor" Konan said as they may have been jokes but they were heavily fortified

"I don't believe in luck honey" Naruto said with a smirk as they had spent much time with each other learning about one another and relating to one another and soon eventually they both realized they were falling for one another and after a year of 'dating' on the moon they decided to get married both wearing a ring the other made for the other

"I know but I really don't feel like dealing with those assholes, so let's just go with the old man's ship" Konan said as she smiled at him as he was one who loved to fight for what was right and never liked giving into others

"Fine" Naruto said as they left to find the ship

(few hours later)

"Oh my god" Konan said as she was looking at a Starship from the old republic in pristine condition

"Can't believe he kept this in a bunker" Naruto said as Tarre kept the ship in a small bunker that was sealed air tight

"I wonder what else he has in here" Konan said before coughing "Besides some dust" she said as she coughed a little

"Well this thing may be still brand new it still has some old school tech" Naruto said as he new quality was versatile in this universe

"Yeah, we're gonna need a mechanic to get this thing to new standards, and someone who knows weapons so we don't just have a big thing of metal, I feel better knowing I can shoot back" Konan said as she liked to be prepared

"Definitely, we can look for them when we get to Mandalore" Naruto said as the ship activated "I swear no hyperdrive" he said as the ship didn't have a functioning hyperdrive

"Are we gonna look up this Yoda guy like Tarre asked?" Konan asked curiously

"If this Yoda is as good as he spoke about, he'll come to us." Naruto said as after learning from all three sides of the force he and Konan decided to take the best aspects of all three sides

"Think they'll listen to us?" Konan asked curiously as on the way here they decided to oppose the Jedi way thinking the Greys were the best

"Well we're basically asking them to throw out everything that they know, so maybe some people saying no" Naruto said as changing the jedi way wasn't gonna be easy neither will be changing Death Watch to a more honorable organization as Tarre asked them to help bring his people to a more noble way

"Well Death Watch may be happening sooner rather than later" Konan said as the radar was picking up three incoming to their ship

"I swear" Naruto said as he saw one of them make hand gestures to land

"So how bad do you think this'll be?" Konan asked him as she joined her lightsabers together holstering it on her back for easier access as when her lightsabers were combined it was quicker to get to and activate

"Well one will probably try and hit on you" Naruto said as he checked out his wife

"And if they do one of us will either kill or beat the ever living shit out of them" Konan said to him

"Besides, if I remember our honeymoon right, I'm pretty sure I ruined you for all other guys" Naruto said with a smirk

"You also kept me up all night, your stamina is too much for me" Konan said as she remembered the night of love and passion as if it happened just moments ago

"Yeah but you still love me" Naruto said

"Until death do us part" Konan said with a smile before they kissed as the doors opened

"Identify yourselves" a gruff voice said to them as he and the two others aimed their weapons at him

"Naruto and Konan Uzumaki" Naruto said to them simply

"So what are you two lovebirds here on a honeymoon?" the man asked sarcastically and then noticed the lightsabers on Naruto's belt "Jedi or Sith" he said it aiming his gun at Naruto

"Think it over" Naruto said as he looked at the man "But we're a bit of both, you can call us Greys" he said as that was the best he could say

"We've given you our names but what's yours?" Konan asked as she and Naruto were ready to and prepared to kill them

"Oh forgive us the name is Pre Vizsla" Pre said to them taking off his helmet

'Vizsla like Tarre' Naruto and Konan thought as that was Tarre's family name

"Now if I may be so bold to ask, but how did you get your hands on a ship that once belonged to my ancestor?" Pre said as he took out a scanner and saw the id holo display of his ancestor

"He told us where it was his spirit trained us" Naruto said as it was extremely rare for spirits of the force to appear before the living

"That lightsaber" Pre said looking at Naruto's sword like hilt for a lightsaber "you are telling the truth" he said as he took out a similar hilt

"You're the one who robbed his grave" Konan said as when Naruto finished his lightsaber Tarre told them it was exactly like his, but informed them it was stolen at one time

"Guilty but since you two aren't Jedi or Sith how about you join Death Watch" Pre said to them as force sensitive members would up their reputation

"How about we do this instead I challenge you for leadership over Death Watch" Naruto said with a grin

'I swear' Konan said letting out a sigh as she knew Death Watch was based on the old rules of Mandalore where only the strong may lead and if you defeated the leader or killed them you were the new leader

"Please as if-" a woman was saying before she was interrupted she has low D cup breasts, a fit body and a athletic ass

"No Bo-Katan, if he wishes to test his metal then let's do it" Pre said with a grin "Sabine make sure they get there" he said flying off

"Fine" Sabine said taking off her helmet revealing a woman with blue hair which got lighter near the tips, she has mid DD cup breasts, a athletic fit body and a nice round ass

"Nice armor, custom painted?" Naruto asked her curiously

"Have a thing for sexy women with blue hair?" Konan asked him with a small teasing smile

"I got you didn't I?" Naruto said as they kissed as Sabine flew them to the Death Watch camp

"To answer your question, yes it is custom painted, I enjoy art... and explosions" Sabine said

'Reminds me of Deidara' Konan thought to herself as this one seemed less crazed and more or somewhat mentally stable

"Why are you taking on Vizsla?" Sabine asked curiously

"Because Tarre wanted me to. I'm going to make this Death Watch into something honorable, better, make it a symbol for hope and fear to our enemies" Naruto said to her simply

Sabine had to admit that sounded amazing as she actually questioned a lot of what Death Watch did

"You know weapons, right? Think when we find a good mechanic you can supe this baby up?" Naruto asked her curiously

"May know someone I'll talk to her if you win" Sabine said as she landed the ship

"When he wins" Konan said having the utmost faith in Naruto

"I have a question, you're married right? I thought jedis couldn't marry" Sabine asked them curiously

"We follow our own path" Naruto said

"Wish all jedis were like that, as that whole emotionless thing… it must get really lonely" Sabine said as that seemed like nonsense to her

"We had a thing like that back where we came from, it wasn't pretty" Naruto said as Konan informed him of something she discovered as it turned out Danzo was behind the thing with Hanzo and behind the attack on Pain/Nagato

"Well I hope you win and can actually fix the screwball jedis" Sabine said as they left the ship

(1 hour later)

"Gladiator fight" Konan said as she was in the front row

"Basically" Bo-Katan said "The victor becomes the head of Death Watch" she said

All the troops of death watch had gathered around a ring that was used for matches and they all watched carefully as this was to decide their new leader

"Are you ready?" Pre Vizsla asked holding a broadsword in his hand

"Yeah sure" Naruto said not really all that threatened as he was close combat fighter and sometimes used kunai so a sword wouldn't be much trouble

"Then let us begin" Pre Vizsla said charging at Naruto, both clashing their swords

"You're not half bad" Naruto said as he wasn't even remotely tired unlike Pre Vizsla

'His skill is astounding' Pre Vizsla thought as even though he was a warrior who mainly believed in power he did know when to appreciate someone's skill 'not even bounty hunters are this skilled' hethought as he noticed the grace in Naruto's movements

"I'd surrender now" Naruto said as he saw the man was exhausted

'Bastard' Pre Vizsla thought as he charged Naruto with the intent on killing him

Naruto just dodged his slashs and just punched Pre Vizsla in the face and after about a minute Naruto was declared the winner

The members of death watch were silent for a moment before they roared with cheers from the honorable battle

'No' Pre Vizsla thought angrily as he took out his darksaber an activated it as he ran to Naruto with the intent to kill him

Naruto would've dodged if someone didn't shoot at Pre Vizsla's head instantly killing him

"There is no honor in not accepting your defeat" Bo-Katan said as she was the one who fired her blaster killing her former leader

"Nice shooting beautiful" Naruto said as the crowd roared for his victory as Bo blushed

(few hours later)

Death Watch had been partying and drinking since Naruto's victory

"People of Death Watch tonight we fly under a new banner the Guardians we are seen as threats to many let us show them we are not terrorists we are warriors" Naruto said as he heard a lot of cheers

'I swear he was meant to be a leader' Konan thought as many people cheered for her husband

"Tomorrow after we finish and rest we go to the Twi'lek home planet Ryloth to liberate it from it's bloody war and the separatists control" Naruto said getting cheers

"Finally some action" Sabine said as she got a chuckle out of Bo-Katan

"Sabine can you get that mechanic?" Konan asked her as she had a bunch of upgrades she wrote down

"Sure" Sabine said as the mechanic she knew would get these done quick

"Room on this trip for one more?" Bo-Katan asked Konan

"Sure, we could always use another weapons specialist" Konan said as nobody understood weapons more than a mandalorian

"And men and women we don't sell or accept children unless under extreme circumstances, we rescue slaves, and we assist people in returning to their planets or homes and let me be clear I'm not asking I'm telling and if you find any orphans then you help them find a home" Naruto said to them

'I swear he is so hot' Konan thought in bliss as Naruto never stopped being appealing to her

"I got a hold of her, she's on Ryloth so she'll meet us there, sorry" Sabine said to them

'Well that sucks' Konan thought as the old ship needed some major tune ups

"If you want, I can hook you up with a man I know that can get you a hyperdrive" Bo-Katan said as she had some contacts and a few people here could do it

"Good because that's one thing we really need" Konan said as the upgrades could wait a while

"Mind if I give it a new paint job?" Sabine asked curiously

"Knock yourself out" Konan said as she honestly didn't care what she wore was her choice

(next day)

"Is everyone ready?" Naruto said over a com system with a dozen ships in orbit of the twi'lek homeworld ryloth "This is our statement to the universe we are not to be messed with" he said as the twi'lek world was a place that was being attacked on two fronts from their dictator like leader who was protected by the republic and the separatist who attacked this world frequently as it was an easy target considering it was in constant conflict

"Naruto we've found the resistance and most of the separatists bases" Sabinel said over the calm as she arrived earlier on the planet to do recon

"Hope everyone is ready" Naruto said as his ship landed a mile from a separtist base

(later)

'Four dozen droids, twenty super battle droids, fifteen droidekas, and two magnaguards' Naruto thought on a cliff as he was looking through a scope and counted off the droid types he could spot 'those magnaguards are usually accompanied by someone of high importance of the separatists' he thought as that type of droid had much skill and was hard to destroy in close combat 'oh shit' he thought as he spotted who those magnaguards were here for 'General Grievous' he thought becoming a little tense as he heard stories of the cybernetic man who used four lightsabers and had a very versatile body

"Naruto we're close, how's the base look?" Sabine asked over the calm as she and some troops were approaching the base

"I'd say we have a decent chance" Naruto said readying his lightsabers 'if I can hold off Grievous long enough' he thought seriously

"Naruto were about to destroy those droid factories" Sabine said as she was leading a team of bombers

"Perfect" Naruto said with a smirk

"Naruto we found where they keep the slaves they were gonna ship off" Bo-Katan said over her com

"Take no prisoners" Naruto said as he knew there were children there 'ok enough wasting time' he thought as he jumped from the cliff directly into the middle of the base getting all the droids attention 'now time to get serious' he thought as he aimed his palm at the floor and sent off a small wave of force energy sending nearby droids flying back crashing into the walls

"Who are you?" Grievous said in his deep raspy tone of voice noticing Naruto's lightsabers wanting to add them to his collection "are you Sith?" he asked as he looked to Naruto's orange lightsaber as he never seen a Jedi with any color close to red

'Getting real tired of that' Naruto thought as he didn't want any affiliation with people like that "nope not a Jedi either I'm just the guy who's gonna kick your ass" he said throwing his two lightsabers making them spin and cut down half the droids there then return to him

"Impressive but you're still outnumbered" Grievous said taking out his four lightsabers

"I'd rethink that" Konan said shooting force lightning at Grievous as she and some troops made an appearance

"And what are you Jedi or Sith?" Grievous asked as no Sith had blue lightsabers and no Jedi used force lightning

"I'm whatever I wanna be" Konan said happily as she then stabbed a magnaguard in it's chest and raised her lightsaber up cutting its head in half as it fell to the floor

'Three new lightsabers' Grievous thought happily as he would get three new colored lightsabers

"So what are our chances?" Konan asked Naruto

"I'd say pretty damn good if Grievous wasn't here" Naruto said as it would be a mistake to underestimate someone who has killed countless Jedi and saw how many drones remained which were only a handful of droids, fifteen super battle droids, fifteen droidkas, and one magnaguards

"Well men you think you can stall this guy long enough?" Konan asked the five troops with her

"Yes maam" the troops said bringing out their blasters

"Well our odds might've went up a little" Naruto said as he looked at Grievous "let me ask you something why are the separtist so interested in this planet?" he asked wanting to hear if his theories were right from the Sith's mouth

"Due to this planet's constant unrest we decided to use it for the strict purpose of making droids and use whoever we capture and sell them into the slave market" Grievous said as he believed he could take on Naruto and his small group

"Well that's all I needed to hear" Naruto said and not a second later very loud explosions could be heard in the distance "my men targeted everything the Sith was involved in with on this planet and my men are on their way here" he said as his men were supposed to come here specifically after they took down each of their individual targets

Grievous's hands trembled in anger as this heavy loss for the separatists would be blamed on him and with the amount of men coming here he knew his chances were slim to none "droids attack" he ordered as he made a break for his ship

"I thought you ordered your men to attack every other seperatist base on this planet" Konan asked Naruto as they deflected blaster shots

"I did but Grievous didn't need to know that" Naruto said glad the general bought his bluff so easily

"Nice now let's go kill these things" Konan said as they all charged toward the droids

(few hours later)

"We took control of the bases we've seized Naruto" Bo-Katan said to him reporting what had happened

"See if we can take anything from them guns, ammunition, spare parts, ships, anything" Naruto said as Sabine came in with a green Twi'lek woman who had mid D cup breasts and a round ass

"Allow me to introduce my friend Hera Syndulla" Sabine said as she introduced her friend

"I'll get to you in a second, Katan, are the slaves we've freed okay?" Naruto asked as he put Katan in charge of that

"Liberated, already had my men get them some more food and clean clothes" Katan said as she felt pride as when she freed some children they hugged her

"Good, now, you're the mechanic Sabine's been talking about?" Naruto asked her as Sabine talked much about her skill

"Yeah and I heard you had a ship that needed some modifications" Hera asked as a he had a ship that was very old

"A lot, and some extra weapons but we needed a mechanic before Sabine and Katan could do their magic" Naruto said to her

"On it" Hera said as Sabine showed her the way

"What are you doing?" Katan asked Naruto curiously as he was making a file

"This terminal goes straight to the republic systems I'm outing a very large criminal" Naruto said with a grin

(later at the republic)

"What shall we do master Yoda?" a man with brown hair and beard wearing a combination of armor and robes asked the small green man as they watched senator Orn Free Taa get arrested

"This I know not young Kenobi the boy very dangerous to whomever he sees an enemy careful we must be" Yoda said as Naruto hacked into a meeting that the senators had for the sake of the republic and sent each senator information on Orn Free Taa

"You maybe right whomever this boy is it would not be wise to make an enemy of him" Obi-Wan said as the Jedi council had been trying to track Naruto down in hopes of asking him to join the order because of the impact he was making

"Hey Obi-Wan" a man with a scar above his right eye wearing dark colored robes

"What is it Anakin?" Obi-Wan asked as Anakin looked like he had something important to tell him

"Ryloth, the separatist there have been driven off the planet" Anakin said a little out of breath

"That's terrific news" Obi-Wan said happily as they had gotten some reports recently that the planet was crawling with Sith but had no proof and the republic refused to enter the civil war

"Yes good news this is, but why the Sith have left is what we should wonder" Yoda said and asked at the same time

"The Guardians" Anakin said getting the other two Jedi to look at him curiously

"Unfamiliar I am with this name young Skywalker" Yoda asked wanting Anakin to tell them more

"Apparently this group is supposed to be a resistance against what I'm not sure but they are being lead by Naruto Uzumaki" Anakin said as they picked a fight with the separtist from what they did and got the attention of all the senators and Jedi Order for what they did to Orn Free Taa

"This complicates things" Obi-Wan said as being a member of a large group like that made things like recruiting them and wondering where their allegiance was made things very complicated

"Very careful we must be the force is strong in the boy" Yoda said walking away

"I honestly don't see what the problem is" Anakin said as he didn't see anything wrong as the separtist were clearly their enemies

"This is serious Anakin the boy is very strong from what the reports say and the fact he has a partner that is also force sensitive makes the issue even more important and now he has an army it makes us uneasy as to what his motives are" Obi-Wan said as the council had never had this type of issue where someone was force sensitive on neither side and made such a huge impact with each day that passed

(later with the Jedi Council)

"This is troubling news" Mace Windu said in deep thought

"True this is prepared we must be" Yoda said getting nods from the other master's there

"Maybe we should make an alliance with the boy" Plo Koon said trying to present a beneficial option

"Nonsense we must end this quickly and have the boy join the Jedi" Luminara Unduli said as she had been one to stick to order and the Jedi way

"Such a thing could have serious consequences for us" Kit Fisto said as he always enjoyed his freedom and doing what Luminara suggested would mean the boy's freedom would be restricted and he had a feeling the boy wouldn't like that at all

"All of this we must consider more about the boy we must learn suggestion I have" Yoda said getting everyone's attention as the door to the room opened revealing master Aayla Secura she has High DD cup breasts, athletic body and a wide round athletic ass

"You wish to send Master Secura to her home planet to evaluate the boy?" Plo Koon asked Yoda as this seemed like something he planned ahead of time

"Yes the boy still unknown to us master Aayla go to Ryloth you must if the boy is a threat we must know if not inform the council you will" Yoda said to the Aayla as she then left

"Are you sure this is wise master Yoda?" Mace Windu asked his fellow master

"Unsure I am curious as to what the boy's intentions are I am" Yoda said leaving the room

(a day later)

'I've never seen my world so lively' Aayla thought happily crouching down on a nearby rooftop wearing a cloak seeing her people celebrate even as a few were repairing buildings along with people she could identify as Mandalorians due to their armor

"I gotta ask" a male voice behind Aayla said making her grab her lightsaber and activate it out of instinct and point it at her target Naruto Uzumaki who didn't even bother to flinch as the lightsaber was less than an inch away from his face "why are you spying on my men?" he asked as he knew before she brought out her lightsaber she was a Jedi

Aayla turned off her lightsaber and got up and they just stood there in silence

"I'll ask again why is a Jedi spying on my men" Naruto asked seriously as he knew even though this was her planet it would be too coincidental that she would come here especially dressed the way she was and only guessed it was to see if he or his group was a threat

"I was sent by the Jedi Order to investigate you and the Guardians" Aayla said truthfully as she knew if he caught her lying it would not be good for her

"Yeah I guessed as much" Naruto said neutrally "I'll answer whatever questions you have unless their to personal but before that I suggest you go celebrate with your people" he said before he exploded into a puff of smoke

'That was odd' Aayla said before she looked toward the celebration and decided to head his advice

(yesterday at ?)

"This is a very troubling" Darth Sidious said to his pupil Count Dooku over a holo communicator

"It is indeed master, how do you wish to proceed?" Dooku asked as he was curious about the boy

"We need to send someone to ryloth the Jedi had already sent Aayla Secura" Darth Sidious said not yet sure of what to do with the boy

"Who do we send?" Dooku asked curiously as Ventress was sent on another assignment and Grievous had already been to the world and wasn't built for stealth

"I have a planet I need you to go to planet Hoth" Darth Sidious said as it would be impossible for him to go by himself without raising suspicion

(hours later on Hoth)

Count Dooku was very displeased from where he was as he walked through the frozen tundra, he soon arrived approached a metal door which was at the bottom of a frozen canyon inside a very deep cave which opened as soon as he approached it

"What is this?" Dooku asked to no one in particular seeing a room full of giant black cylinders

"A back up if you will" Darth Sidious said as he installed a holo communicator in this room

"Why am I here, master?" Dooku asked still not sure what this room was

"We are few in Sith lords so we need another to help with this crisis we face" Darth Sidious said as he pressed a button from wherever he was and the contents of one of the tubes revealed itself and inside was a red Twi'lek woman with Sith tattoos wearing a small tube top that only went a little under her DD-cup breasts, a black bikini bottom that covered a nice thick ass, and black thigh high combat boots

"Who is she?" Dooku asked curious and a little frightened by what or who the other tubes contained

"Darth Talon a Sith that was trained by one of my earlier pupils but she became too loyal to him and I had to kill him before he rebelled and I had to re educate her as she became hostile" Darth Sidious said as he kept her in case of emergencies or if he was ever short on numbers "she may be able to blend in with the other Twi'leks but if she is seen they will know she's a Sith her lightsaber will be by the entrance and be prepared to come here again if she fails" he said to ending his communication

(present)

Darth Talon arrived on a planet with people of similar to that of her, she soon saw the people laugh and cheer spending time with their loved ones, even after being re educated by Darth Sidious she felt a twinge of sadness and jealousy even a tear went down her face

(with Hera)

Hera smiled happily seeing her home planet become liberated from the terrible effects of the war

"Hera" a male voice called her name and when she looked behind her she saw her father Cham a beige Twi'lek "oh this is perfect you come back after the fighting is over it fits the coward that you are" he said glaring at his daughter

Hera bit her tongue as she remembered all the painful memories here on her home planet "it's nice to see you still think nothing of your family even after you have gotten what you have always wanted" she said with a little bit of sadness in her tone

Cham raised his hand to strike his daughter but was stopped as Naruto grabbed his hand

"I'm gonna ask this as politely as possible before I rip off your damn arm from it's socket. What is going on?" Naruto asked having a firm grasp on Cham's hand

"The savior of ryloth" Cham said in surprise

'Savior of ryloth not my first choice but ok' Naruto thought as he always wanted a cool name like his father or sensei "Hera is the guardian's best mechanic and you will apologize" he said tightening his grip on Cham's hand

"I'm sorry" Cham said as he saw that they were drawing in a crowd

Naruto let him go even though he knew Cham wasn't sincere

(later on the hammerhead)

"You wanna talk about it?" Naruto asked Hera as she sat on the ship in silence

"My father has been obsessed with the liberation of our planet since I was a child he was more focused on the resistance than his family" Hera said as she didn't really have a reason to blame him for that as their planet was always in a constant struggle till now "after my mother and brother died I left and he disowned me" she said as she still felt the emotional pain from that day

"You'll always have a home with not just with the twilight rogues but me" Naruto said as he knew home wasn't always a place but the people who you consider family

"Your sweet" Hera said with a smile as she felt a little better and gave Naruto a hug

(later at a dive bar)

Naruto was at a dive bar enjoying some peace and quiet as the planet's people mobbed him with affection, he noticed a cloaked figure on the other end of the bar 'she has the power of the force but I feel something else' he thought as he had been able to push his sensory abilities to new heights with the force 'her mind feels so cloudy' he thought as he had learned to scan a person's mind even being able to feel what their very souls felt, he saw her wink at him and go out the back way

"Do you want another drink?" the bartender asked Naruto who just placed twenty credits which was more than he needed to spend on the bar table

'This is almost sad' Naruto thought opening the door not walking through it as a red lightsaber stabbed from behind the door "amatuer" he said as any decent shinobi could've spotted this a mile away and after it fell down from the sudden action Naruto saw the cloaked figure he was expecting

"I am Darth Talon my master has sent me to eliminate you" Darth Talon said in an emotionless tone as she removed the hood of her cloak revealing her red skin full of Sith Tattoos

'Why is it I'm always attacked by deadly smoking hot women?' Naruto asked himself as it was both good and bad depending on who a person asked "well atleast this'll be fun" he said as he took out both his lightsabers and could easily tell this woman was a master and wanted to test himself as he never had faced a Jedi or Sith before in combat so this would be a great test to all the training he had done

The two charged each other their lightsabers colliding neither giving the other an inch

On a nearby rooftop Aayla watched the fight with close observation ready to jump at a moments notice 'he's very skilled and is powerful and precise' she thought a little impressed with the amount of time he had been active to now 'he's definitely stronger than a padawan but not a master' she thought from what she was seeing but was surprised when both the Sith and Naruto both their palms became very close both trying to force push the other but Naruto was able to send her a good ten feet away 'the force is tremendously strong in this one' she thought as when two force users clashed when sending force energy at the other it either sent them both flying or they both felt tired from using the power against each other

'She's good' Naruto thought as he knew when he was outmatched in certain areas 'as fun as this is I gotta end this' he thought focusing the power of the force into his index and middle finger making them glow but not before he placed his orange lightsaber on his belt

"That power" Aayla said amazed by the amount of force energy that was being put into two fingers of Naruto's fingers "he may need some assistance" she said activating her lightsaber and jumping down

"You Jedi need serious work on stealth" Naruto said not even being distracted by her appearance "I need you to hold her in place for what I'm going to do" he said as it would be difficult to do if he parried against her

"And what are you going to do?" Aayla asked wondering what he intended to do with his two fingers full of force energy

"Just do it" Naruto said as he saw Darth Talon dashing right for him

Aayla did as she was asked parrying against her fellow Twi'lek feeling sad that a member of her race with such potential joined the Sith

Darth Talon saw the look of sadness in Aayla's eyes and became enraged but before she could do anything Naruto placed his two glowing fingers on her head causing her to collapse

Naruto bent down and picked her bridal style "I'm gonna take her" he said as he began to walk away

"Wait what are you going to do with her?" Aayla asked as she would've taken Darth Talon to the republic but with the fact that Naruto saved her home planet and had many of her people as supporters along with the fact that he had his own group made it seem like a very bad idea to stop him

"She attacked me and I want answers as to why" Naruto said walking up the side of a building before running at incredible speeds

'My report will be very hard to believe' Aayla said as Naruto seemed like an enigma with the abilities he had displayed

(later)

"Rise and shine" Naruto said as he sat in the medbay with Darth Talon, her hands heavily restricted with special cuffs designed to keep her fingers from moving

"Where am I?" Darth Talon asked a little tired and her head feeling very cloudy

"Medbay you tried to kill me but I'm thinking you didn't have much choice" Naruto asked as he felt nothing when she was attacking him

"I remember" Darth Talon said as her mind became clear and she remembered the horrendous mental and physical torture Darth Sidious did to her "where is my lightsaber?" she asked knowing it wasn't on her

"Right here" Naruto said pulling the wooden lightsaber with a red jewel at the bottom out from behind him

"Release me" Darth Talon said with a glare

"I will but I have a proposal for you first" Naruto said seeing her raise an eyebrow "I'm gonna assume you're gonna try and kill the man that did this to you" he said knowing it was a fact

"Yes" Darth Talon said without a second of hesitation

"Well I'm gonna tell you that won't work and you'll fail" Naruto said as he saw that she was glaring at him "but how would you like to destroy everything they've worked for?" he asked making her curious

"Go on" Darth Talon asked wondering where he was taking this

"Me and my men took a planet the Sith were using to manufacture their droids we did that all in a day and if you join us and help us we'll be able to help you get back at the Sith losing everything they strived to gain in this war" he said, knowing it would be better than her going off on her own getting killed

Darth Talon took a moment to consider this and knew she'd have a better chance at killing Darth Sidious if she did it Naruto's way "I will join you" she said getting a smile out of Naruto

"Ok but one last question before I let you go what next?" Naruto asked making her confused

"What do you mean?" Darth Talon asked not sure what he meant

"After you kill the person that did what they did to you what will you do next?" Naruto asked her

'What will I do?' Darth Talon thought to herself and even as she tried to give it some thought she couldn't think of anything as she had nothing left as Darth Sidious took everything from her

"You don't know do you?" Naruto asked her as he was familiar with the feeling as before he wanted to be hokage when he was a child he didn't know what he wanted

"No I don't" Darth Talon said not knowing how else to answer

"Than let me help you find a reason don't let your life be consumed by hate because if you do the person who did this to you will have taken more from you then you realize" Naruto said as he already knew what revenge did to people who let it consume them

"I was raised to be a Sith lord I don't know what else to do" Darth Talon said as she never experienced a proper childhood upbringing

"Don't let that dissuade you, you can be more than what they tried to make you and be more than you ever thought possible" Naruto said as the potential people had was limitless and was only bound by their own limitations

"And what do you see me becoming?" Darth Talon asked desperately wanting an answer

"A hero" Naruto said pressing a button which then released her of her cuffs and tossed her her lightsaber and left

Darth Talon stared at the door Naruto left through 'I had been called many names but hero was never one of them' she thought as she only ever saw her future filled with darkness but now at the end of her seemingly endless tunnel of darkness she saw a glimpse of light 'he is someone worthy of my services' she thought knowing what she wanted to do

(1 hour later)

"I want to join you" Darth Talon said to him and just as she was about to bow he stopped her

"Let's not do that welcome to the Guardians" Naruto said to her "what's your name by the way?" he asked her curiously

"Darth Talon" Darth Talon said to him

"Your real name" Naruto said clarifying

"Alema...Alema Rar" Darth Talon said as it was nice to use her real name again

(with Aayla)

"This boy very powerful" Yoda said on a hologram as Aayla was conferencing with the Jedi council from her ship and showed them a recording of Naruto's fight

"I haven't seen anyone the boy's age fight with such skill" Plo Koon said as he was very impressed by Naruto's fight

"Beside that master Secura what did he do with the Sith?" Mace Windu asked curious as to what Naruto did with Darth Talon

"Why don't you ask him yourself?" Naruto said startling Aayla as she looked behind her from the pilot's seat and saw Naruto sitting on top of her ship

'How did I not sense him?' Aayla thought as he was only five feet away from her

"Greetings young one" Kit Fisto said with a smile

"Hey" Naruto said waving to them and then looked at Aayla "told you I would answer your questions I always keep my promises" he said giving her his signature grin

"Would you mind if we ask you something?" Mace Windu asked Naruto

"You already did but go ahead" Naruto said having a good guess on what they'd ask

Yoda giggled a little liking Naruto's personality

"We would like to ask you to become a padawan" Mace Windu asked as he, Yoda,Luminara Unduli, Kit Fisto, and Plo Koon had no padawan and could train Naruto in the ways of the force

"Not gonna happen" Naruto said knowing all the ramifications that would be involved like the republic trying to command the guardians or get him to reveal his secrets and special abilities or even go as far as to study his dna and the thought of leaving Konan in charge sent shivers down his spine "but I am willing to make an alliance" he said as the republic may have been corrupt but they were still a better option than the Sith

"And what does this alliance entail?" Luminara Unduli asked not liking this situation and chose to remain quiet till now

"If one side is in trouble and in need of reinforcements than the other will assist" Naruto said not willing to let other people die if he can help it

"Before we agree young man why do you not wish to become a padawan" Plo Koon asked curious to Naruto's reluctance

"Well the no attachments thing is a dealbreaker" Naruto said as that was where he drew his strength from as each new bond of friendship he made gave him more strength than he did before "and I have a duty to my men" he said as he wasn't going to leave them for something as dumb as becoming a padawan

"Those are petty reasons in the grand scheme of things" Luminara Unduli said getting a glare from Naruto

"Maybe it is because I want to keep my freedom but at least I try to make a difference despite that and what is selfish about standing by my men" Naruto asked challengingly daring her to say something

"We are getting off on the wrong foot and Naruto if we were to agree to this alliance I need to ask why your group is named the guardians?" Mace Windu asked as he was curious to the name of the group

"It's named that because no matter where we come from good or evil if a person is willing to do the right thing and stand up for true justice they'll be accepted here" Naruto said as people in this universe were deeply judged on their actions no matter if they were good or evil

Plo Koon, Kit Fisto, and Yoda seemed to smile from the answer feeling the boys passion and his purity

Mace Windu seemed neutral to the prospect of accepting people from both good and evil from what it might've implied

Luminara Unduli was against the whole thing and found his explanation to be absurd and ludicrous

After a few minutes of the council debating they came to a conclusion

"Naruto Uzumaki the Jedi council agrees to your terms" Mace Windu said as they went by majority when they voted and there were more for yes than no "but as of right now we need your assistance" he asked Naruto

'Of course' Naruto thought knowing they might abuse this and do it as soon as possible "what is it?" he asked curiously

"Our Jedi need assistance on Christophsis" Mace Windu said as he explained the situation

"Would you like an assist?" Aayla asked getting a nod from Naruto

"Sure… Konan could always use a extra pair of hands as I leave her awfully tired" Naruto said teasing her before laughing as Aayla's face turned bright red

"Are you just attracted to blue" Konan asked him curiously wondering if her hair color increased her chances

"Hmm, depends as you make blue very hot, honey" Naruto said as they made out making the people on board a little uncomfortable and jealous
