The knock on the door came precisely two days after Natasha Romanoff's first visit.
Peter, who had spent most of that time either researching Tony Stark or trying to calm Felicia's nerves (and his own), wasn't surprised.
He opened the door to find Natasha standing there, her red hair gleaming in the afternoon sun.
She was...
The forest grew darker as they walked, the trees thick and close.
Naruto, at the front, felt the sadness hanging heavy in the air.
He wasn’t just sensing danger now; he was feeling the pain of the land itself.
The quiet villages, the tired faces—it all spoke of a deep, heavy burden.
Tazuna’s words about Gato...
“Ouch, It hurts! Can you be more gentle with me Jake!”
Jenny yelped in pain as Jake applied medicine on her wounds. He had made this ointment for a time like this.
Jenny, even though she escaped death because of the talisman of protection.
She was still hurt from the debris.
“Endure it, You will get better soon ...
Emma felt happy.
She could control her mind really well after Jake taught her and showed her something like that.
A mind like a galaxy. It was beautiful and scary at the same time.
“I want to be as strong as him. But I know my limit.”
There was no way she could make her mind become that strong. She thought about ...
“Ten thousand dollars? Are you sure you haven't been on drugs or something?”
Jenny looked at him in concern while he was withdrawing money from the ATM.
He had told her that he got a lot of money from helping Emma with her business.
She knew who Emma Frost was. She was from a very rich family. She must have a lot of mone...
At lunch break, Jake went with Emma to the rooftop. Jenny was busy with her mutant friend and said sorry to him for not being able to join him.
“It’s okay, I have this one with me.”
Jake pointed toward Emma and she smiled awkwardly at her. She didn’t feel good about his way of addressing her.
Jenny looked at Emma and...
Jake went to school with Jenny like usual.
She told him to wait for her at the same place. And he accepted it like normal.
After parting with Jenny. Jake went to his class while he thought about the plans that he took the whole night to come up with.
He could think of many plans to make money. But many of his plans required...
Jake went home and had pizza with his sister while watching TV.
He even forgot what TV was and what he usually did with it. He watched the news like a normal person should, but his sister looked at him like he had gone crazy.
"What? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Jake asked his sister, perplexed by her reaction. Sh...
After the last class ended. Jake felt like he was going to go insane. For six hours straight, he had to sit and listen as the teacher taught him useless knowledge that he would never touch in real life. He hates scholars, and he always will.
As he stepped out of the classroom, Jake's mind yearned for freedom and excitement. The monotono...
After talking with Ororo. The pair of brother and sister went to class like normal.
Along the way to the classroom.
Jenny looked at her little brother who took in the matter of her being mutant very easily.
She couldn’t help but ask him in concern.
“Are you really not mad about me not telling you that I am a mutan...
"My name is Ororo Munroe. Nice to have you with me today, Mr. Alexios."
The woman named Ororo spoke to him with a charming smile. Even those fairies in the heaven palace couldn't be compared to her. Her presence was captivating, as if she possessed an otherworldly aura.
The room seemed to brighten as she entered, filling it with...
Naruto listened closely as Tazuna spoke. The old man’s words became clearer now, filled with real fear and sadness.
Tazuna explained how Gato, the bad guy, had taken over everything.
He controlled the ships, the trade, and even the people’s lives.
No one could buy or sell without Gato’s say-so.
The bridge wa...
Many people had to calm his sister down.
They told her that no one was going to do anything to her little brother. They said that if he was her family, It was okay for him to know about her and people like her.
They looked at him and saw that he didn't react much to people who had superpowers. They then called him and his sister...
'I shouldn't read his mind!'
Emma thought to herself, realizing that delving into Jake's thoughts accidentally was a grave mistake. She didn't think that he would be a very powerful mutant who had the best power to counter her.
'I should accept Magneto rather than Xavier!'
With such pressure. Her control over her power sl...
School? What is that place? And a classroom—is that a torture chamber?
Jake was now having a hard time staying focused. His mind wandered as he tried to comprehend the purpose of school and the classroom.
The first class today was about the history of Columbus.
As the teacher began to talk about Columbus' voyages, Jake'...
Memories of their childhood flooded back, reminding him of the strong bond they once shared. It was very comforting.
"You are freaking me out now. What the hell are you hugging me for?!"
*Smack!*
Yep, This was one of the feelings he yearns for. Even though he forgot about it, his body still remembers it. The smack brough...
"How long has it been?"
Chen Ming spoke to himself. As he looked at the endless void around him.
He was an immortal level cultivator who had nothing left to do in his life. For millions of years, he cultivated and cultivated without break. His existence had become monotonous, and he yearned for a new purpose. ...
The blaring news report about Tony Stark's disappearance echoed in Peter's mind, a stark contrast to the peaceful morning he'd been sharing with Felicia.
A knot of unease tightened in his stomach.
The world felt like it was shifting on its axis.
The following afternoon, a knock at the front door pulled him away from his fr...
Team 7’s first mission after the bell test was, as expected, a D-rank. It involved chasing down a runaway cat named Tora.
The mission was classic genin fare: a furry, uncooperative target, a lot of running, and the usual complaints from Sakura about the cat’s claws.
Satsuki moved with silent efficiency, cornering the mischiev...
Peter didn't move.
He just lay there, soaking in the feeling of Felicia next to him.
The smell of her hair, the warmth of her body – it was all so real, so comforting.
He had missed this, missed her, more than he could say.
"Felicia," he whispered, her name a soft breath.
She stirred, a sleepy murmur esca...
The announcement of Team 7 hung in the air, a mix of disappointment for Sakura and a quiet victory for Satsuki and Naruto.
After the initial shock, the classroom buzzed with nervous energy.
Students hurried off to meet their new sensei, eager to begin their shinobi journey.
Team 7, however, remained. Iruka-sensei, after a ...
Peter looked at Tsunade, the implications of her words settling over him like a heavy cloak. A clan compound.
His own clan. It was an absurdity, a concept so far removed from his other life that it felt like a poorly written science fiction novel.
Yet, the glint in Tsunade's eyes, the solemnity of her tone, told him this was no jo...
The atmosphere in the Hokage’s office was taut, thick with unspoken accusations and diplomatic maneuvering.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, sat behind his desk, his pipe clutched firmly in hand, his gaze unwavering as he faced the two Kumo ambassadors.
They were a study in contrasting emotions: the elder, a man with a perpe...
Peter walked towards the dining room.
He had no idea what a Genjutsu was, or why the Jonin outside had suddenly developed eyes that looked very cool, very red, and very menacing.
He just assumed the ninja had some sort of ocular quirk, maybe a special power that gave them super cool vision.
His mind, even the scientist, w...
Naruto maintained his facade of a frightened captive, occasionally grunting or flailing just enough to appear genuinely distressed, all while subtly guiding the Kumo ninjas deeper into the Forest of Death.
He knew the terrain well from Daji's extensive lessons and was leading them toward a specific, secluded clearing.
It was a pl...
A few days after Naruto’s return, an invitation arrived at the Senju compound, addressed to him.
Fugaku Uchiha, head of the Uchiha clan, was hosting a birthday party for his daughter, Satsuki, and had personally requested Naruto's presence.
Fugaku, ever the astute leader, recognized the importance of maintaining strong ties with...
Hiruzen set down the report with a heavy sigh.
The resolution of the Uchiha clan's conflict with the council hadn't brought the peace he'd hoped for; instead, a persistent trickle of troublesome issues kept demanding his attention.
As Hokage, dispatching ninja on missions to address these problems was his duty, yet it felt like a...
