Team Mutant Ninja Clan

A week has passed by since the death of Cheha Lang

Leaf Village

"Yah, it's practically been spreaded around all of the villages, that Naruto kid is dead." A man says as he walks down the block.

"I'm hearing you, I heard his trainer Kakashi even went back to New York, all he returned with were two of Naruto's ninja shurkins." The other guy laughed.

It was true, everyone believed him to be dead. They were even holding his funeral today. Kakashi stood there as a man gave off a speach. There were pictures of Naruto there as well. Sakura sobbed into Kakashi shoulder as the funeral began to come to an end. All his friends were there, Hinata, Kiba, Tenzo, Shino, Rock Lee, Sai, Tsunade, and many others. There hiding up in the tree, from team 'Snake' Sasuke Uchiha was there as well.

"Goodbye old friend." He whisperd as he turned his eyes to the right to see the last person he would have expected.

Up standing in a dark corner Itach Uchiha stood. Sasuke had been waiting for this moment, to finally test his new abilities against his brother. Then suddenly Itachi looked up at Sasuke, then Itachi put out his hand as he pulled it back, telling Sasuke to follow him. Sasuke jumped out of the tree as him and Itachi left the funeral. The only two to notice all of this was Sakura and Kakashi. So the two of them followed close behind. Itachi and Sasuke took there journey in what appeard to be a forest. They traveled through this area for about an hour but soon stopped. Sakura and Kakashi hid in the trees above as the two Uchiha brothers stared eachother down.

"What is it you want Itachi?" Sasuke asked.

"I'm suprised your not with your team mates." He said.

"Why did we come so far in here?" Sasuke asked.

"Um, the true question is why did you follow me, you know you don't have enough hate and power to defeat me." Itachi said.

"Um." Sasuke mummbles.

Suddenly a gun shot goes off as a male with long black hair walks inbetween the two brothers. He has on a pair of blue jeans with a matching blue jacket. He has on blue shoes with green socks and has crystal blue eyes, and wears an orange scarf around his neck.

"If you kid's want to fight, take it somewhere else." The man said combly.

"What's wrong with this little area?" Itachi asked.

"My cabin is just right over there." He pointed.

"What if I say no, because that's your answer pal." Sasuke replied.

"I'll give you two one last chance, beat it." The man said.

"This guy has no idea what he's getting himself into." Sakura said to herself.

"Why don't you get lost punk, this dosen't involve you." Sasuke said.

"Um, so be it." The man said as he loaded up what appeard to be an energy beam and shot it at Sasuke blasting his whole stomach open.

Sakura was about to jump down in see if Sasuke was ok, but Kakashi put a hand on her shoulder. Sasuke layed there there in pain as blood came out of his mouth. Itachi became wide eyed as he looked over at the man.

"That was no attack using chakra, what is this guy." Itachi thought to himself.

"I'm guessing your the smart one." The man said as he looked over at Itachi.

"Who are you?" Itachi asked curious.

"I'm Juunanagou, but you can call me Android 17." The guy replied

"Naturally that would of killed any normal person, if he's tough he'll live." Juunana said.

"I could care less, I have more important things to deal with." Itachi said.

"Like what?" Juunana asked.

"There's someone I'm suppose to meet who goes by the name, Zerela. That's why I came in search for my brother, the rest of my team are caught up in something much bigger. I was hoping he would put our differences aside for this task." Itachi said.

"I'm guessing you were planning on using him." Juunana said.

"I could use someone of your talent." Itachi said.

"Where would this task lead us to?" Juunanagou asked.

"New York City." Itachi replied.

With that Sasuke fell uncousious.

"Alright let's go." Juunana said as he teleported behind Itachi and grabbeb him while flying into the air.

"So he can fly, it will be intresting to see what else he's capable of. Still I can't trust him just yet." Itachi thought to himself.

Kakashi and Sakura jumped out of hiding as the two of them flew off.

"You think we should follow them?" Sakura asked.

"First we need to get Sasuke some help, then we'll deal with them. Who know's maybe he'll side with us." Kakashi said as Sakura picked him up.

Back in the sewers of New York City

It had been a week since Naruto had enterd the turtles lair, he still hadn't awoken, but his condition improved. Michaelagelo awoke that morning to the sound of papers being fiddled with. Mikey jumped out of his bed as he walked down the hall to see Donatello working on something.

"Have you checked on the kid this morning?" Mikey asked rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"Not yet, Leo went out to go get some breakfest. Why don't you go check on him." Donatello said as he turned back to his computer.

Mikey walked down the hall as he walked into the TV room to see Naruto asleep. He slowly walked up to him and put a hand over his head.

"Don't worry, you'll pull through dude." Mikey said as suddenly Naruto's eyes opened.

Naruto quickly jumped from the coach as Mikey jumped in the opposite direction.

"Who are you!?" Naruto yelled as he pointed at Mikey.

"The brother of the turtle who just saved your shell!" Michaelagelo yelled back.

"He looks like some kind of demon, this could be bad. I guess I have no choice." Naruto thought to himself.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Naruto yelled as three clowns of himself appeard.

"What in the shell!!" Mikey said as he pulled out his Nunchucks.

The four Naruto's charged over to the sitting turtle. The four of them pulled out ninja shurikens as they threw them at Mikey who simply did a back flip four times dodging them. Mikey then took charge as he used his chucks as a helicopter allowing him to glide in the air for a brief period. Then he kicks his feet forward knocking down all of the clones making them dissapear. Mikey then put's his chucks away as he get's into a fighting stance, Naruto does the same as they stare eachother down. They both ran towards eachother at top speed as they both land a punch on the other ones cheek. They both fall to the ground, about thirty seconds later they both begin to get to there feet as a sword goes to each of there necks. Standing inbetween them is Leonardo.

"That's enough, let's say we have something to eat." Leo said as he put his swords away and helped the two to there feet.

"Ok I'm confused, who are you guy's?" Naruto asked.

"Were the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." Mikey said proudly.

"What, your ninja's?" Naruto asked.

"Yes, why don't we discuss this over breakfest Naruto, that is your name am I correct?" Leonardo asked.

"How do you know my name?" Naruto asked.

"It's been all over the news, you've been declared dead for the past week. Anyway you'll be home in no time." Leonardo assured.

Finally it all came back to him, Cheha Lang, Bridget, the ninja's, and Zerela.

"I'm not going back until I take down Zerela." Naruto said with a straight face.

"I'll bite, who's Zerela?" Asked Mikey.

"I don't know much about him, all I know is he had something to do with the burning of the warehouse. By the way, thanks for saving my life." Naruto said as he looked over at Leonardo.

"Hey Mikey turn that game down." Donatello said as he enterd the room.

"Oh hey, my names Donatello." Don greeted as he walked up to Naruto.

"How many of you are there?" Naruto asked.

"Just one more, though he's not as good looking as us three." Mikey said.

"His name is Raphael, there's also our sensei who is a mutated Rat, we call him Master Splinter." Leo said.

"Intresting, I'd love to know your history." Naruto said.

"That's another whole episode, anyway we'll go out tonight and see if we can find this Zerela guy." Leo said.

"Thanks guy's, I really did't get all your names except Donatello." Naruto said.

"I'm Leonardo, and this is Michaelagelo." Leonardo said as he and Naruto shook hands.

On the roof top's of New Yory City

Android 17 landed on top of one of the buildings as he let Itachi go. They both looked down at the city below. It was now mid day and the streets were as bizzy as usual.

"Tell me, what made you come along?" Itachi asked.

"You and your friend intrest me, I haven't sensed anyone above average on human standards since the saiyan's." Android 17 replied to his question.

Itachi had never heard of any saiyans, but he guessed they must be pretty good pretty powerful, but then again he really dosen't know much about #17.

"Alright then, I won't be needing you for awhile, so you can do whatever you want." Itachi said.

Juunanagou responded by flying off.

"Now to find Zerela." Itachi thought to himself as he looked at a slip of paper with a time and directions witch led to a club.

Leaf Village

Sasuke's stomach had been healed by Tsunade but he still hadn't awoken. Sakura sat in a chair not to far away from him inside the infirmary. The next second Rock Lee walks into the room.

"So how does it look like he's doing?" Rock Lee asked.

"You could say ok, I guess." She replied.

"It would have been something if he had died, I can't believe Naruto is gone." Rock Lee said to himself as he clenched his fist's.

"He'll pull through, Sasuke is one tough guy." Rock Lee said as he put a hand on her shoulder.

New York City sewers

Leonardo had been planning on which route to take when looking for Zerela, Donatello was working on a science project, and Mikey was bizzy teaching Naruto how to play video games, whitch Naruto was begining to enjoy.

"I'm loving this game, you've got to get the sequal to this." Naruto said as he held the controller in his hands.

"Yah dude it comes out next month, wanna play another match?" Mikey asked.

"You better believe it!" Naruto said in excitement.

"That's enough games." Leonardo said as he walked up to the two.

"Yah, you can always count on Leo to spoil your fun." Mikey soaked.

"We have more important things to attend, besides it's getting dark witch means it's ninja time." Leo said as he threw the two of them a pair of baggy clothes.

"What are these for?" Naruto asked raising a brow.

"Disguises." Donatello said as he enterd the room.

"For what?" Mikey asked.

"Were going to a club." Donatello said.

On the streets

The TMNT along with Naruto walk down the streets dressed up as if they are in a gang. Mikey wears a backwards red and yellow hat with a brown jacket with some saggy jeans, and some conver shoes. Naruto wears some grey sweat pants with one sleeve leg rolled up with a black jacket on and a gold chain on, with solid white shoes on with a backwards black and white hat. The others are dressed quite similar to these two.

"Don, are you sure Zerela is going to be here?" Naruto asked.

"If my research serves me right." Donatello said as they approached a large building with two guy's standing at the door.

"Purple Dragon's." Leonardo hissed as he looked over at the two members of the Purple Dragon.

"What's the pass phrase?" One of them asked.

The four of them held up two fingers on one side, and three on the other. They opened the door for them. The four of them enterd the club. There was no noise, they looked around to see a bar to there left. There was a disco in the cieling, but no music was playing. Suddenly everyone directed there attetion to the stage. There he was, Zerela standing there over someones body.

"Welcome all Purple Dragons, we have a new member who is about to join. To prove himself worthy, he must kill this child." Zerela said as he looked down at a small kid who was in tears.

"Not on my watch, hang on kid!" Mikey yelled as he ran towards the stage.

Leo, Naruto, and Don tried to stop him but he was already gone.

"There goes Mikey blowing our cover." Donatello said.

Mikey jumped onto the stage as he did a jump kick knocking Zerela to the ground. Zerela quickly got to his feet.

"How dare you!" Zerela yelled as Mikey threw off all the clothes to reveal himself.

Everyone gasped.

"It's one of those mutant turtles, let's book." Someone said as he ran off.

If that wasn't enough, Itachi watched from his hiding spot up in the cieling.

"Excelent, I heard rumors about some mutant ninja's, it will be something to see the real deal." Itachi said to himself.

Seconds later Donatello and Leonardo threw off there clothes to reveal themselves as well. The purple dragon begin there attack as the turtles pulled out there weapons. Itachi began to examine them one at a time.

"I can see, that one must be Michaelagelo, he's unpredictabul as they said, Donatello wields the bo staff with skill of that of a highly advanced warrior." Itachi said as he looked over at Leo.

"Ah, there leader, he looks just as promissing as I'd hoped, wait there's suppose to be one more." Itachi said as he looked around the room to see Naruto remove his disguise and get into his classic orange uniform.

"What's this, Naruto's suppose to be dead." Itachi thought.

Leo, Naruto, Donatello, and Mikey easily hadled there opponet's. Suddenly more purple Dargons Enter the room.

"How many of them are there?" Naruto asked.

"Now would be a good time for that shadow clone move." Mikey said as Itachi jumped down infront of him.

"If you die, the nine tailed fox dies, I can't have that." Itachi said as he raced over and defeated about fifty men in a matter of seconds.

After he was done he walked over to Naruto but Leo blocked his way.

"I don't know what you want from Naruto, but you'll have to defeat me first." Leonardo said.

"Leo don't fight him, you don't know what he's capabale of." Naruto said.

Suddenly the sound of clapping can be heard as Zerela walks up to the pack.

"Impresive, you will all be great candidates for the tournament, just as the boss hoped." Zerela said.

"What, ok dude now you've just lost me." Mikey said.

"This whole event was for me to lure the greatest fighters here." Zerela said.

"So from the begining me coming here was to test me?" Itachi asked.

"Yes you are right, but don't be angry. I know you blood Itachi, you live to test yourself, pushing to higher limits." Zerela said.

"Ah, where do us four fit into all of this?" Mikey asked.

"Well you see the night I burned down that place I saw one of you green creatures go and rescue that kid, I knew he would want vengence. So I did some thinking, I put a data base of myself on the net to see if any of you were bright enough to try and track me down, I can see Donatello did a handsome job on that." Zerela said.

"How do you know my name?" Don asked.

"That is not of importance right now. It's to bad you wearn't able to bring Sasuke along Itachi, for it was me who requested you bring him." Zerela laughed.

"What if we don't join your tournament?" Leo asked.

"Then your world will soon die, you five are one of the few capable of stopping us. There's a boat witch leaves the harbor at 10:30 P.M. in four days, be on it." Zerela said as he began to walk off.

"Hey wait, if we have a chance of beating you, then why invite us?" Naruto asked.

Zerela ingnored this question as he vanished into the night.

"Come on, are we actually going to believe that guy." Mikey said.

Leonardo glanced over at Itachi and when he blinked Itachi was gone. Not even a second later Leo feels the pressents of someone right behind him.

"You better be there, because I'm looking forward to your challenge." Itachi whisperd.

When Leo turned around Itachi was gone.

"So much is going on in such small portions." Don said.

"I don't know, let's get out of here and get something to eat." Leo suggeted.

For hours to come Naruto and the Ninja Turtles hanged out on the roof tops as they ate pizza and ice-cream.

"Now I can see what you guy's mean, I never knew that there would be something as good as roman." Naruto said as he grabbed another slice of pizza out of the box.

Donatello and Leonardo had finished eating but Naruto and Mikey were still chewing down. After they were finished eating they headed back to the lair for a good nights rest. Michaelagelo slept on the floor next to the video game system with Naruto sleeping behind him on the coach holding a controler. Donatello had headed to his room for the night. Leo walked up to the TV and turned it off along with the game system as he looked over at Naruto and his brother.

"You know, those two are alike in many different ways." Leo said as he walked off to bed.

The night brought a light rain, there was also the sound of traffic above as any bizzy night.

Leaf Village

Sasuke's eyes finally opened to that of a pitch black room. He then felt something on his right shoulder, it was a warm and soft object. He tilted his head to the right and caught a glimpse of Sakura. He then rememberd what had happened, his brother, the android guy. He slowly pushed up as he slid out of the bed. He then turned over and looked at Sakura. He walked over and put her in his arms as he layed her on the bed.

"Thanks Sakura Haruno, we may be friends now but I can't gurantee we will be next time we meet." Sasuke said as he ran a finger through her hair.

"Now to head to New York City." Sasuke said as he went to the window to the left and exited the building.

New York sewers

Naruto and Mikey were sound asleep until they heard the sudden sound of foot steps. The two of the imedetatley jumped out of there sleep and readied themselves for combat as Splinter and Raphael enterd the room.

"Master Splinter, Raph, welcome home." Mikey greeted as he walked over to them.

"A... Mikey, whos the kid?" Raphael asked.

Naruto slowly walked up to them as he bowed down.

"It is nice to finally meet you Master Splinter." Naruto said as he stood back to his feet. "I've also heard a lot about you from Mikey." Naruto said as he looked over at Raph.

"Mikey, you mind telling us who your friend is?" Raphael asked.

"I'll explain." Leo said leaned up against a wall with his arms crossed.

Leonardo walked over and told them what had happened for the past week, and about the tournament.

"I see, so your saying they want the best warriors to attend." Splinter said as he rubbed the bottom of his chin.

"Yes, Master were not sure what to do." Leo said.

"Don't know what to do, I do, we enter our shells in this thing and show them what's up." Raphael said cracking his knuckles.

"I'm ready for all of them, I'll be the winner in the end." Naruto said proudly.

"Great, another Mikey." Raphael said.

"I've come to a decision, I want the five of you to do some stretching, I'll be back in five minutes." Master Splinter said as he walked off to his room.

"What's that suppose to mean?" Naruto asked.

"That means were going to the tournament in three day's." Leonardo said as he began to stretch.

"In these three remaining days, I guess I could teach you guy's how to use your chakra." Naruto said.

"How do you know if were capable of using it, let alone if we even have it inside of us." Donatello exclaimed.

"I guess there's only one way to find out, by trying." Naruto said.

Raphael was the only one confused in the room

"Anyone care to explain to me what you four are talking about?" Raphael asked.

"Not now." His three brothers replied.

Seconds later Master Splinter walked back into the room.

"Let our training begin." Master Splinter said.

They held back nothing for the next three days. To there suprise the turtles and Splinter had flowing chakra through there bodies. With in the three day's Donatello was able to channel his chakra so it was visible on the outside of his body to make him much faster. Raphael was able to learn how to make his chakra make his physical body stronger in defense as well as offense. No one was sure what Leo could really do with his chakra, all he ever did was meditate while the others practiced using there inner power. Mikey on the other hand really couldn't do much of anything but feel it inside of himself. Splinter used his to stregthen his reflexes.

Every day the turtles and Naruto ran four miles over roof top to the next. Then they would head over to a construction site and do two hundred pull ups each, whoever finished last did an extra twenty five. In there spare time, Naruto and Mikey would spar, Raph would beat on his punching bag, Donatello would practice his balance on a bunch of bamboo sticks, and Leo would spend his time meditating. The night had finally arrived for them to head to the harbor. As they jumped from building to building in there diguieses Raphael stopped.

"What is it my son?" Splinter asked with concern in his voice.

"You guy's stay here, I'll be right back." Raphael said.

Raphael left. Minutes passed by.

"Master, do you think he's ok?" Donatello asked.

"Yah, you know Raph." Mikey said.

"Even so, we shouldn't be late getting there." Leonardo said.

"How much longer until the boat departs?" Naruto asked.

"In about twenty minutes." Donatello replied.

"Boy's keep quite, I smell a presence of someone near." Master Splinter said as they all became aware.

Suddenly Don looks up into the air to see someone jumping directly down to him holding a ninja shuriken. Donatello quickly jumps out of the way.

"Who are you!" Don yelled as he pulled out his staff.

"I must of mistaken you for someone else." The young guy said across from Don as they looked into eachothers eyes.

"Hey Leo this guy has those same kind of red eyes as Itachi did." Donatello said.

"You know Itachi?" The guy asked.

Then he looked over to see Naruto along with three other creatures.

"Naruto, your suppose to be dead." He said.

"What are you doing here Sasuke?" Naruto asked.

"I can see you two know eachother." Donatello said.

Suddenly Raphael returned, but not alone. To his right side stood Casey Jones.

"Who's he?" Naruto asked as he pointed at Casey and Raph asked as he pointed at Sasuke.

"I'm Casey Jones, you must be the Naruto guy Raph was telling me about on the way here." Casey Jones said.

"We better get heading to the harbor now." Leonardo said.

"I'm out of here, I'm going to go find Itachi." Sasuke said as he turned to jump to another building.

"If your seeking out Itachi, you might want to follow us." Leonardo said.

"Yah he's going to the tournament and he wants to fight Leo." Mikey blurted out.

"What, what tournament?" Sasuke asked.

"Were running out of time, we'll explain when we get there." Leonardo said as he jumped to another building.

Everyone followed close behind him. In a matter of minutes they made it to the docks. They looked down as people boarded a boat that had the features of a dragon. There were many types of fighters boarding the boat, guy's in karate out fit's, men dressed in tuxedo's, boxers, wrestlers, etc.

"A lot of those guy's look like a bunch of push over's." Mikey laughed.

"Alright let's head down." Leonardo said as the eight of them jumped down to the wet and solid hard ground.

They all boarded the boat using what appeard to be a small bridge leading up into the boat. Minutes later the boat set's sail. Once out to sea they looked around at many of the fighters who had come for the tournament. In a dark corner of the ship Itachi can be seen standing alone. He slowly comes out of the corner and begins to walk over to there group.

"Itachi!" Sasuke yelled as he ran over to confront his brother.

As he runs forward Naruto jumps infront of him.

"If you really want to fight him, wait for the tournament. Besides there's a line to fight Itachi, Leo's up first." Naruto said as Sasuke shoved Naruto to the side as he charges at Itachi again.

Then suddenly Donatello and Naruto grab Sasuke by his arms as he struggles to get free. Itachi smirks at this.

"I'm so glad you three turtles could make it." Itachi said as he looked over at Don, Mikey, and Leonardo.

"Um this other one must be Raphael, I sense anger inside him. It will be interesting to see how he fights, he might just might be the most dangerous of the four." Itachi thought to himself as he walked off.

The next second Naruto felt a hand tapping him on the back of the shoulder. This made him let go of Sasuke who was no longer struggling. Naruto turned around to see Neji Hyuga.

"What's the big idea Naruto, your suppose to be dead." Neji said crossing his arms.

"Well Neji, as you can see I'm, as you would say under cover." Naruto said with a smile with his eyes closed.

"You think this is funny, your false death had Sakura and Hinata in tears." Neji said.

"Hey Naruto, who's Sakura?" Mikey asked.

"Ah just this really hot girl who's in love with me, I mean who could blame her." Naruto said with a huge smile.

"Yah right." Sasuke said under his breath.

Suddenly a man came to the front of the boat as he began to speak. He had long black hair with a long black leather jacket with a dragon on there. He had on some brown boots and wore a black shirt.

"Welcome fellow warriors, I hope you enjoy this ten day boat ride." He said.

"This is going to be the biggest tournament of the century so I hope you all are ready. For Mortal Kombat begins in eleven days from now." The man said.

"Who the shell is this guy." Mikey whisperd.

"My name is Shang Tsung." He said hearing the turtle.

"Something still bugs me, if we have a chance of winning, why invite us." Leo thought to himself.

To Be continued
