Chapter 78

While Naruto had left for the battle, the girls had woken up and realized his disappearance. They weren't worried initially but soon minutes became hours and no contact had been established.

Raven quickly tried to connect to him but realized something was blocking her off, increasing her worries.

Kara held her together so her mind didn't become unstable as they informed the others of his disappearance so they could assist with the task.

It sent a wave of worry across the team especially since Naruto was very strong now and his disappearance didn't bode well for anyone.

Raven remembered Xanadu and teleported there with Kara.

"I have been waiting." Xanadu sat there with three cups of tea as she looked at the duo.

"Did you know this was going to happen?" Kara asked as she placed her hands on the table and glared at her.

She was not going to be kind, if she said yes.

"No, I didn't know this was going to happen. Even my abilities have a limit and this was not one of the outcomes I have seen. It seems Nyx has interfered somehow." Xanadu replied calmly as she indicated for them to sit.

Raven and Kara had also come to the conclusion but the problem was that they couldn't contact her or Gaia.

The next time Kara saw that bloody whore, she was going to pound her skull into the ground. There was no way she was going to let this go.

She hated people playing with her life, and now she was being played and her lover was being played. It was painful and frustrating.

"Do you have any clue of his whereabouts?" Raven questioned as she held herself strong and stopped her heart from becoming lost.

She had a bad feeling about this incident so it was her to worry more than usual.

"I can see that he will be safe, but he won't be your Naruto. He will come back to break every hero and villain on this planet. You need to prepare your friends for this battle or it won't end well." Xanadu replied as she also felt dissatisfied with the result. She didn't like the meddling of Nyx as her powers became inaccurate and Naruto was someone whom she considered a friend.

"Do you mean that Nyx is mind controlling him or has brainwashed him?" Kara asked for clarification and even though her face didn't show it, she was shaken inside.

This was one of the worst outcomes especially since a primordial was the culprit.

"Brainwashed, most likely."

Kara slumped into her seat as she heard the answer as it was not a good one.

"Do you see any way to solve it?" Raven continued with question session.

"No, I can't see anything more about this incident. It is too convoluted for me to get an answer and it involves too many powerful beings." Xanadu shook her head regretfully as she was unable to provide more assistance.

Kara and Raven remained silent for a while as they took in the information. It was something they had never expected, never even had nightmares about.

It was just so out of the field that it was hard to accept that Naruto was going to be an enemy. And the thought only made them feel pain and rage for Nyx.

"Thank you for your help, if you need anything please call us." Kara muttered as she stood up from the seat and put down the group's card.

"We are all friends, so need for such things. Just take care and solve it without any harm." Xanadu stood up.

The duo nodded and disappeared as they headed for the Watchtower to meet the JL and inform everyone of the coming problem.

Just as Kara was waiting for everyone to gather and discuss their new actions, Kurama fell on her and his physical form had become the chibi version that he used when out of combat.

They could easily tell he was hurt and in great pain, his soul was fractured and the body was leaking energy.

And Naruto was missing.

Raven didn't need to be told as she picked up Kurama and stabilized his soul, and energy. She gave him energy and helped his recovery, causing him to open his eyes that had been shut.

'Nyx has corrupted Naruto. Naruto��s daughter has been turned into a woman and she has been given false memories where she is his wife. So Naruto should also be getting similar memories. From what I understood of the situation, they are definitely going to attack. We need to take him down and bring back his memories.' Kurama spoke quickly as he was filled with worry at the moment and he wanted to quickly mount a rescue.

'Calm down, Kurama. You are acting too hasty.' Raven commented and Kurama nodded as he agreed that his speech was too fast.

'Sorry girls, this is the first time in a long time I have experienced such emotions. But, we will need some concrete plan since both of them are very strong and could end up killing everyone. I will work with Kara and act as your support like Naruto did.

We might be the only ones that could rival him.' Kurama continued as he jumped from Raven to Kara, and sat on her head.

'We also thought the same, so we already called for a meeting. You will have to explain the capabilities of both sides now since you are the one closest to them.' Kara said as she let Kurama rest on her head while Raven felt slightly jealous of the scene.

Kara always got the most attention.

'Will his clone be affected as well?' Raven asked as she reminded them that there was a clone living a normal life, well as normal he can be. The clone had also taken up hero business on a low level with Death as his partner.

'We will check upon him and see.' Kurama replied as he didn't know since this was a complete unique situation.
