《Jump-Verse: Prelude》Chapter 5

Silence filled the room. Okimi did his best to explain everything that happened four years ago, but he wasn't sure if the three believed him or not. It seemed that they had no memory of this "Jump Crisis" he was talking about. It looks like going back to the Jump Worlds made them forget everything that happened... Okimi thought. Naruto eventually spoke up. "Everything you just said is crazy. These guys are familiar, sure," he pointed at the other two. "But that just sounds too-"
"Unreal," Deku finished Naruto's sentence.
"I don't see how it could be unreal for you guys. Naruto, you've fought giant glowing beings with swords and have the spirit of a demon fox in you. Deku, quirks may be the norm in you world, but not for everyone else. Hell, Jojo's fought a vampire that could stop time!"
The three heroes stayed silent once more, thinking about how they were supposedly these beings from a whole other dimension that were being watched the whole time. Jojo finally spoke.
"And you're saying there's more people from this Jump universe?"
"Yes. A lot more. Like I said, there are others out there with incredible strength that match even your power, Naruto.
Naruto thought about that. The only other person as strong as him that he considered an ally was Sasuke. But Sasuke was on a journey somewhere, apparently. They hadn't seen each other in weeks. He presented his idea.
"Why don't we pay those guys a visit?"
Everyone in the room looked at him. "But we don't know how to get there." Deku said. "I don't even know how to get back to my own world."
"How did you and Jojo get here anyway?" Okimi asked.
Deku's face turned serious at the thought.
"That girl we saw earlier, Sadia. She had somehow got into my world and was threatening everyone downtown. So me and a few of my friends tried to stop her. But she was crazy. It was as if the more she was hit, the stronger she became. She became harder and harder to control until, eventually, not even Endeavor was able to do anything."
They stared at him in silence.
"Eventually when she had us down, she suddenly opened a portal, or gateway to here. But one of my friends was so frustrated, he jumped in without thinking. I tried to grab him but we both ended up in here as a result. But when I got through, my friend was no where to be found..."

"Bakugo is here?!" Okimi shouted, and winced at accidentally amplifying the pain in his stomach.
"Y-yes, I think so. But I don't know where he is." Deku replied. He then turned to Jojo. "Did you get here the same way too, Mr. Jotaro?"
"Yeah. Riku came to my world looking for the cube. He started picking fights. Then he came up to me. I told him to get lost, but things ended up getting worse from there. He tossed me around with his speed then opened up a portal. Guess I was too angry, 'cause I followed him here."
Finally, Naruto spoke. "I was pretty much minding my own business when all three of 'em came to the village and started demanding for the cube. No one knew what he was talking about, but we knew he was dangerous, so we tried to turn him around. And then all this happened."
"These guys are about to cause chaos," Jojo said.
Okimi thought about things for a moment. "Naruto," he started.
"Yeah?"
"I think we should talk to the hokage about this. Right now, it's Kakashi, right?
"Yeah."
"Ok..." Okimi slowly lifted himself up and inspected his stomach wound. It had significantly healed over the course of his stay. Whatever medical treatments this village used were highly effective. He put on his shirt and lab coat. "Could you lead the way?"
The three searched for the hokage until they found him inspecting the damage in other parts of the village. He turned to them.
"Naruto. There you are. I'm sorry I took so long." He stared at the others. "Care to tell me who these three are?"
"These guys are Deku, Jojo and Okimi. They're from other worlds!"
"I see," Kakashi muttered. He took that surprisingly well thought Okimi and Deku. "I assume you're here to help find the three that caused all this?"
"Yes," Deku said. "They intruded in our world too, so we need to find them and stop them before they become too much of a threat."
"The problem with that is we can't find a way to get back to my world to stop them," Okimi added.
Kakashi stared at them for a moment, trying to find out their true motives. He wasn't sure if they were truly good guys or not. After all, three very dangerous people showed up, and then other allies just happen to conveniently appear at the same time.

Naruto could tell what he was thinking. "Don't worry, Kakashi. I trust these guys."
Kakashi sighed. He had put his faith in Naruto before, and it was probably better to do it again this time.
"Well, if you want to get back, you'll need this," Kakashi dug into one of the pockets in his jacket and pulled and handed them a small device.
"Is that an watch?" Okimi asked, noticing the resemblence. There was a small screen in the middle. He tapped it and it projected a 3-d hologram of a planet. There were words under it.
"'N-Verse'?" Naruto read them out loud. "What's that?"
"I think this is probably your universe, Naruto." Okimi responded. Deku and Jojo stared intently at the projection. He tapped the screen again, turning the projection off.
"Thank you, Mr. Hatake," he said.
"What do you plan to do now?" Kakashi asked.
"One of Deku's friends is also here, so we're gonna find him first, then try to get to Okimi's world," Naruto replied.
"There, we'll formulate a plan to defeat those three. With this, though, we may be able to get some more allies to help." Okimi said.
The hokage nodded. "Sounds like a good plan. I need to help the village with cleaning up this mess, but if you need help, Naruto, I'll be there. Hopefully Sasuke and Sakura too, though I haven't seen them in a while."
The foursome went through the exit and into the forest ahead, off to find Katsuki Bakugo. "Naruto, can you sense him with your chakra?" Okimi asked.
"Sorry, I can't. It's probably 'cause he's from another universe."
It probably won't take as long as your guys think. Bakugo is a little... loud," Deku added.
Okimi turned to Deku. "I don't know how you've been able to put up with him for so long. I understand you consider him a friend, but he's a jerk."
"He has a lot in his mind."
Jojo stared at Okimi. "It's weird that you were able to see everything that we've done."
Okimi thought about that. "It... does sound really weird from your perspective. We didn't know you guys were real. Like how you guys didn't."
Jojo was honing in on the subject. "Do you guys have the power to look into our past, too?"
Deku and Naruto listened closely, interested in the topic as well.
"Well," Okimi went on. "We kind of do. We're not able to see everything, but it depends on how your worlds were displayed in my world. For example, There are stories about your ancestor and grandfather, Jonathan and Joseph Joestar."
Joe...star? Deku and Naruto thought.
"What about me?" Deku asked.
"We can only see to the point where your first learned about All Might. As for Naruto, we've seen up to even Madara's childhood. But it gets skippy and changes a lot, from Kakashi's childhood to Naruto's and his birth as well."
There was silence for a brief moment. Then Deku asked a question. "Was... there really no way for you guys to help us?" This was the question on everyone's mind. They'd all went through hell, while supposedly all Okimi did was watch.
"I promise you. There was nothing we could do. It's not like we liked seeing you guys in pain. All we could do was just watch. They stared at him, trying to find out if he was lying or not. Suddenly, a loud boom echoed through the forest, followed with sounds of explosions.
"That's Bakugo!" Deku shouted, and leaped through the forest at high speed. The others followed right on his heel. Okimi stood there for a moment and then started running after them. He expected to be slow, but suddenly found himself running into a tree at a high speed. He shook his head. What the- another boom sounded, and Okimi knew he didn't have time to worry about it.
he tried to run the forest again, but slower this time, and wondered what was going on. He thought about everything that had happened in the course of only 3-4 hours. He started to feel dread in his stomach. Fear slowly overcame his mind. Would earth be destroyed by the three strangers? If something really bad happened it would be his fault. So no matter how scared he was, he just gulped and put on a fake determined face. I have to do this he thought. I have to fix my mistake. He followed the three heroes, about to start an incredible adventure...

Fallen
Hundreds of years ago, the servant god Elsyn declared that they would destroy humanity entirely, explaining it as their duty as humanity’s peacekeeper. When the gods saw it fit to send someone to oppose the fallen servant, Iztris—the gods’ own servant and follower—visits Cheryn. Iztris requests the aid of Alyson and Jacob, the oldest two heirs of Cheryn and the only ones given the gods’ offer of the ‘assurance of victory,’ and the heirs agree. There will come a time when humanity does fall—but none of them would allow that to happen by the hands of a being just as flawed as mortals. I recommend reading the story by volume, instead of by the order the chapters were posted. This story was beta read by Mad Sadie. Many thanks! Please note that some characters use different pronouns depending on the chapter’s view and the speaker. Iztris, for example, is referred to with neutral pronouns by Elsyn (in most cases) and themself, and after being introduced as such they are referred to with male pronouns by Alyson and Jacob.

Bastard's Wrath
The Wyvern reared its humongous head, serpent neck coiling back, onyx scales of opulence shimmering in the dimness of the cloud smothered sky. It spoke, eye's ashen, like the surface of a star, "What is it you desire, boy?" The word's rolled from it's pointed maw, tongue flicking, it's deep and ferocious voice sending the ground below rumbling. Damien looked up, hair sodden with rain, his face battered beyond recognition, his lips curled into a snarl. He had gone past the point of being frightened; he was tired of his weakness. He spoke, voice wavering, mist floating from his mouth in the coldness: "I want them dead. I want everyone who stabbed me in the back; dead." The Wyvern smiled, rows of teeth exposed, "Then sacrifice it. Sacrifice your humanity." - The story of a bastard within a crippled family,who beyond all odds becomes known as the Greatest Swordsman to live: the one that, even the Gods, would someday fear.
