    • by Akito B. Takahashi The office itself was a cavernous hall dominated by the family's emblems. Ozai sat against a simple chair like a figure always hungry for power. Zuko knelt, pressing his forehead to the cold floor. "You summoned me, father?" "Rise," Ozai's voice boomed. Zuko stood, keeping his gaze level—respectful, but not fearful. "Captain Li tells me you have perfected the intermediate katas. He even said you defeated him in sparring. Is this true?" "Captain Li is a capable teacher," Zuko evenly said.…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi "You have the entire roster at your disposal," Dr. Kapoor said as she looked at the haptic interface. "The system's unlocked all the notable figures in the database. From the main heroes to even the bystanders. The choice is yours." Alex stood before the wall of screens, arms crossed, studying the profiles rotating in the air. It was a buffet of destinies, yet most of them looked unappetizing. He tapped on the image of the bald monk with the arrow tattoos. "The Avatar," he mused. "Full elemental…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi The silence in the penthouse was heavy, the kind of silence that money bought but couldn't fill. Fifty stories up, the city noise was a distant abstraction of things that Alex watched from behind triple-paned, bulletproof glass. He sat in a designer chair that cost more than most people's cars, rocking back and forth. Creak. Pause. Creak. Pause. It was a maddening rhythm, but it was the only thing happening. Alex was bored. Plain and simple. He was twenty-two, and he had already won the world…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi The sun was beginning its descent as Jada waited for the last drop of light to filter through the trees. When it did, her eyes widened, and she began gliding toward Arthur. Each footfall seemed to lift her off the ground rather than press down. He just stood there, waiting for her approach. Then the moment she closed the distance, bang! Her initial punch was caught with an effortless palm. But the strike was a feint as she shifted her weight and aimed another attack at his chest. Bang. He…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi The Hyūga clan's sacred library. This was a place few could step foot in, and it was also the perfect environment for a certain person to concentrate and gather intel without prying eyes. That person was Alexander. Yet it wasn't actually him; it was his clone from the Shadow Clone technique. The real Alex was with Jiraiya and Tsunade in Tanzaku Town. Right now, the clone was currently engrossed in the task of creating a seal on blank parchment. The lamp's soft glow illuminated the room at…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi Present day. Arthur stood frozen as his body was still trapped by whatever technique was on him. Despite his predicament, he remained calm. If he understood Alice, she was part of the Yamanaka clan. That meant that she was likely using the Mind Destruction jutsu, a technique that allows her to remotely control a target's body by infiltrating their nervous system. This was impressive, to say the least, since she wasn't using any hand signs. But at the same time, he wasn't foreign to its mechanisms;…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi "Look who's arrived," Kisame said with bloodshot eyes. "Itachi… I'm wondering if they're gonna send the whole village after us now." Naruto turned around upon noticing his friends and teacher. He was thrilled to see them, but William seemed a tad ashamed. He believed he was going to be yelled at for bringing Naruto, the Akatsuki's main target, over here. Alex stepped forward, saying, "We're here to stop you two." "And who might you be?" Kisame asked. "I'm Alex Hyūga, a sworn member of the…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi At the mission center. Jasper couldn't stand another minute in this stuffy place. He sat across from Homura and Koharu, the two elders of the village, their stern gazes fixed on documents of him. The Hokage's Manor was often a place of immense pressure for ninjas in trouble. Yet Jasper wasn't here to be reprimanded. He crossed his arms, leaning back in his chair by trying to project an air of nonchalance. Homura, the elder with the sharpest eyes, broke the silence and said, "We've received…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi Margaret silently thought things through. She had trained tirelessly, honing her skills to perfection. Just what were these people thinking? Wood style, to her, was the world's strongest Kekkei Genkai. If that wasn't enough, she had even developed much of Tsunade's techniques—including going as far as obtaining a never-before-seen custom Sage Mode. 'But I'm not being recognized as the best?!' Frustration simmered inside of her. She had worked harder than anyone else, so she believed. How…
    • by Akito B. Takahashi Some time later, Alice rose from her sleep and walked out of her room in her pajamas. She was often always the one to wake up before her roommates. Jada and Margaret were a lot younger than her, so it made her maintain her level of maturity. She soon found herself standing on the balcony as the morning sun reflected off her face. The air was crisp and clean, something she quite enjoyed about this world. After closing her eyes, she began to meditate and think about the events of the past couple…
