13 Chapter 13

With Naruto gone with BB, Nightwing was sitting in the base as he finished up planning the next step against the light.

It was quite a risky step as they were already risking Aqualad's life by making him a spy but now they were planning to slip in Artemis.

Seeing Naruto's ability to transform and his experience with the spy life, Nightwing thought maybe they could slip him in but the problem arises from the fact that he has high energy. Energy that can be traced back to him as the Light also has magicians and technology of the highest degree.

Thinking about Naruto, he was also reminded of the words Impulse said about Starfire. She was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen but no understanding of human culture.

They fought together in a team and fell in love. That's what he thought but when he was gone for a mission, he found her sleeping with Malcolm.

She wasn't even ashamed of this fact and expected him to accept this bullshittery.

The anger he felt that day could never be replicated by anything he has experienced in his life. At that moment he had desire to kill his friend and the slut that played with his heart.

Looking at the expression on Malcolm's face, Nightwing had realized that he wasn't aware of the situation and most likely thought she was free now.

That day caused a rift between them as Star wouldn't accept the fact that she was in the wrong and found no problem with sleeping around with multiple men.

She said her sexual desire was too much for him to handle and he should be fine with her love for him since she only used others as toys.

The moment he heard those words, Nightwing left the team. He was over with the Titans since the only other member he respected had already left.

From that day one year ago, he hadn't seen Starfire nor had she tried contacting him. She must have taken the memo that he was over with her disgusting personality.

He heard from BB that she cried for a day and then flew into space.

Hearing that she cried didn't affect as he had cried tears of frustration and endured the pain she caused him.

Even now he had trouble trusting females that he ended up becoming like his mentor, Batman. He had many flings from that day with different girls but couldn't put his trust in them so it was just a sexual thing.

From Harley to Zatanna, he had slept with all kinds of crazy girls but that heart refused to heal so Nightwing had already given up on a proper relationship with anyone and just focused on his crime fighting completely.

To him love was just a nightmare and he couldn't remember the good parts of the experience.

'Forget about it. Star should be back on her home planet married to that fiancée of hers. Now will she come back is another issue.' Nightwing remembered her mentioning about that man and telling him that he would be the person she loved while that person would act as husband

She really took him as a cuck.

"Night"

"Connor, how can I help you?"

Superboy was one of his closest friend's now and he had also been part of his Titans. They had fought together and suffered together. They were like brothers, him, Wally, Aqualad, BB and Cyborg.

"I need your help with improving my fighting style since you know all my powers. I realize that I have been quite lazy in these years about fixing this problem while my big brother is master of martial arts and even my cousin knows martial arts that they incorporate into their fight9ing style when needed." Connor looked unsure at first and then asked this as he had been contemplating asking Dick about how to get over a relationship

Really much of the team had some history with bad relationships.

Batgirl was sidelined by Nightwing and felt her first love disappear.

Connor got betrayed by Meghan as she violated his mind with her powers and refused to acknowledge her wrong doing. He hadn't shared this with the team that she had been ripping memories out of peoples mind and leaving them comatose.

She was becoming a lot like the villains as she justified her actions for the greater good.

Red Arrow was in a complicated relationship with Cheshire who was an enemy and nobody knows if she would become a good person or not.

Zatanna had a bad break up with John Constantine when her father died because of him.

Just a mess of bad relationships all over the place except for Wally and Artemis.

Nightwing looked at Connor and understand why he was so willing now. He wasn't the only since Cassandra was also behind him.

She was a lot better than Connor in combat but she was nowhere close to the first Wondergirl, Donna Troy.

"No problem I can do that but you should look for Donna, if you want better results because just explanations aren't enough and I can't help you with practicals." Nightwing explained as he knew it was impossible for him to actual spar with Superboy or Wondergirl properly and Donna was their friend so she wouldn't decline their request

Donna Troy was also one of the bad examples of relationships as she had been married for a short time to her college professor before the man divorced her because of her dangerous life style and left with their baby son.

She found comfort in someone else but her previous husband, the son, the husband and his daughter all died in an accident, which broke her spirit.

Villains took advantage of it and many things happened, fortunately her sister was here so Donna was sent back to Themyscira where she became the adopted daughter of Hippolyta and was called Princess of the Amazons.

"I don't think I am allowed on the island for long."

"You can just invite her to spar with you outside the island."

"Hmm, I will try but I don't know if she has time for this." Connor muttered as he sat down on the table and looked at Cassandra

"You won't have the problem so you should really check it out and maybe teach me something."

Nightwing looked at the duo and thought they suited each other better. Meghan was a psychic being that couldn't stop her natural inclination for such contact and Connor disliked psychic contact after a certain limit.

Truly Lagoon boy was right for her as that human form wasn't her true form.

------------

Leaving the trio discussing about combat effectiveness and Nightwing's plans to save the Justice League members from the galactic law enforcement by finding proof of the Light's machinations, Naruto was sitting with BB and Raven in Jump city.

The Titan Tower was abandoned and there was no one occupying it since last year. The trio sat atop the tower as they looked down at the city.

Raven was reminded of the good times she had in this place and felt nostalgic.

Those were the best times of her life as the rest was filled with studying and fighting against her nature.

Naruto found it a waste of resources by not utilizing this base. He also loved the new cuisine that BB had fed them.

The man himself was crying over his wallet becoming empty after feeding this monster.

'I shouldn't have gone to an upper class restaurant.' BB regretted his decision of choosing something expensive when a normal place would have sufficed

'I guess I will need to go back to taking jobs soon. Can't survive on the money from one gig.' BB was an actor and also researcher, these two fields belonging to his parents

His mother was an actrice while father was a researcher that developed the serum that led to his transformation as BB.

As a child he had been hit by a incurable disease that would have killed him and his father injected him with the serum that would make him adapt to the virus like the beasts of the jungle while opening him to some radiation.

These two factors worked together and he gained these powers to transform into any beast that he knew. It could exist on earth or another planet. It doesn't matter what it is as he could transform in to a mouse to a dragon at will while also understanding their abilities.

The only problem would be that he couldn't gain things that these species learned by themselves or he could just transform in Naruto and gain all his abilities.

He could transform into a green Naruto but BB made it a rule not to turn into other humans as he didn't want to forget his own appearances.

There were times he had existence crisis and he feared that he would forget what he truly was and become a wild beast.

"So what are you guys planning to do?"

"I am training at the moment and studying." Naruto replied as he was looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him, it was quite unique as he was used to nature not this artificial world

Konoha comparatively was just homely while this gave of the artificial vibe even though it looked stunning.

He was kind of getting the picture slowly for this world and maybe the future of his world as he saw people stuck to their phones and not taking with the friend sitting opposite them.

More research needed to be done but Naruto had understood one thing about people, majority would always take the easy way out.

Someone else's problem has nothing to do with them.

Really being a hero was much easier than reforming the world into a positive outlook as life was truly hard and most people were so lost into it that they forget everything else.

Unless he could make life easier to live, people would find it hard to follow his path.

There were two points of focus. The average man and the influencers.

In his journey with Jiraiya, Naruto had seen many things so he was aware that the responsibility didn't always lay on just the people or the leader but both at the same time.

But if the leader was wrong then it was guaranteed that the pond was polluted.

Back home influencing leadership would have been easier since he was an important piece now but in the current world it looked a little troublesome since these heroes might interfere in some of the things he might want to do.

There was always a pro and con to each situation.

Hopefully it doesn't come to that and he can take out the wrong people from the leadership circle when possible by gathering the dirt on them.

This was a skill that Jiraiya was a master of and he made sure Naruto knew how to gather information and mix in with the people.

"What are you studying?"

"I guess you can say magic." Naruto knew that he wouldn't be able to explain fuinjutsu or ninjutsu to BB so it was easier to go with the equivalent

"Then you guys can work together since Raven is master of the arts."

"Not a bad idea, we can definitely discuss something's and help each other out." Raven thought for a moment and said as she didn't like to owe anyone

People could owe her but she could never owe anyone. It just left a bad taste even though she was happy that they helped her but the debt needs to be paid.

"Really? I look forward to it." Naruto was taken aback as he didn't expect that answer and was visibly happy at her response

"Do I really look so unapproachable?"

Both of them looked away at those words.

"The weather is really nice today." BB commented

"Yeah but getting back to your question. I think you look very mysterious and dark when your face is covered up by the hood. That dark colored energy just enhances that image.

I would approach you since I have no problem but normal people would most likely avoid you if you are new in town.

I think you look cute honestly." Naruto replied calmly with a thoughtful expression

"Not bad, I get the same feeling for everyone else. Your reaction to my covered appearance was actually unique. I have never seen anyone think cool and beautiful."

"What can I say, I got awesome taste!" Naruto chuckled as he heard those words

"I think most people would call that unique taste. How about you tell us about yourself? You know we can be great friends and I really owe you one for this. I will start by sharing some simple things. I like sweets and junk food. I love playing games, listening to pop music and I like to watch anime and dramas. I love movies from action to thriller since I also participate in the process by being an actor.

I like nature and the animals living there. I even keep a journal of for each beast that I have seen as it also helps me with my powers.

I like hanging out with my friends and Girlfriend. I wish to help people to the best of my capabilities. Oh yeah almost forgot, my favorite color is green, my favorite song is Dance Monkey and my favorite movie is King of Monsters. I think I will just become an actor as my stable profession since it's so fun."

"Expected that you won't have a favorite book."

"Oh yeah for books, I love OverLord." BB said with a grin

"Useless books"

"Take that back you wench or I will wring your neck."

"Calm down BB, it's just an opinion. It can't hurt you." Naruto held back as he was about to pounce

"I was just kidding. Obviously there is no way I will do that."

"Because you can't"

"That and because BB is a good boy."

"Ignoring the green monkey, My favorite color is dark blue and I like to read many different things. It can be fiction and non-fiction. I like to practice magic as it is a wonderful art and I also practice jujutsu as I think the body needs to follow with the mind.

I don't really have any favorite show or music. I am unsure of my future."

"Psst, she is lying about the shows and music. Don't let that dark appearance fool you…." Bb was about to reveal her girly side and got silenced

Raven just muted him.

'Magic really is marvelous. Can I copy that with chakra?'

"I hope you will find your way and get a bright future." Naruto said as he heard her words and understood that she hadn't thought further as her life was dominated by the darkness and the shadow of that monster

"As for me I like learning new skills and getting stronger. I like to hang out with my friends and make new friends. I like Ramen. I like the color orange. I like helping people and my dream is to make the world a better place and becoming the leader of my village.

My favorite song is called Blue Bird and my favorite book is called the tale of a gutsy ninja. I love nature especially since I am very much connected to it now. I wish to go back to my world sooner or later even though I also want to stay here with my new friends. I hope I can just dimension hope on will soon enough so I can come and go whenever I want." Naruto said as he thought about himself

"Different dimension?"

"Yes, I came from a different world."

"I can help with that."

"Really?"

"I regularly pass through different dimensions so I might be able to help but we can only know after I check."

"Awesome, please check."

Raven extended her hand and her dark energy came in contact with him as she tried to find the link.

"Sorry, it seems you will have to search for it manually as the link is set to this universe." Raven said calmly while leaving out her thought of another possibility

'Are you sure that was not a dream?'

These kinds of things weren't impossible and Naruto could have actually been part of this world from the start and just got his memories jumbled by someone else.

It was just one of the possibilities but Raven kept to herself as she didn't want to cause him mental problems from self doubt.

She had seen the results of these kinds of situations, where the memories had been a complete lie and knowing the truth can break some people since all they know is fake and doesn't exist.

Boom

Looking at the city, Raven saw such a familiar scene once again. A robbery in process.

"Teen Titans move out" BB was able to speak up and he shouted on habit as he was back in Jump City

"Not so teen anymore, Beast." Raven commented as she floated with both boys standing behind her and just for old times' sake she decided to play along
