OK so I've been meaning to put this idea out for a long time.

But the first draft I had of it was on my old computer that I never backed up.

Plus now I got the actual roster for this newest batch of Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

And with help from GOTHICNIGHTWING I got the look for the first Avenger.

Chapter 1: A legend is reborn...

The Avengers were currently investigating a massive disturbance in China, one that there computer J.A.R.V.I.S had detected, when it happened, all the villains ambushed them. Captain America was doing his best to fight off Baron Zemo, the Red Skull, the Winter Soldier, and the Punisher who turned evil. He had lost track of Iron Man, though he assumed he was trying to fight off the Crimson Dynamo, Ironmonger, and Whiplash. Hulk was trying to fight off the combined assault of the Wrecking Crew, Abomination, and the Leader's custom made Hulkbusters. Black Widow was using all her combat prowess to fight off Madam Hydra, Grey Gargoyle, and the Tinkerer's new toys. Giant Man/Ant Man was doing his level best to hold his own against Scarlet Beetle, Hijacker, Comrade X, and Protector. Wasp was trying her best to fight off Human Top and the Black Knight. Thor was trying to fight off the Executioner, Loki, and a whole horde of Loki's Frost Giants.

However with all of their greatest villains gathered together they were eventually overwhelmed. They villains roared in triumph of the World's Mightiest Heroes being destroyed, utterly and completely. With their celebration over the villains grabbed the hero's greatest weapons and scattered them, so that they could never bring back hope to the masses. For over 2000 years these artifacts remained hidden until one fateful night that would decide the very fate of the lands that had come to be called the Elemental Nations.

"In the fires of hate, despair, and strife the greatest of villains and heroes can be born. But only those who can overcome such turmoil can truly call themselves heroes."

12 year old Naruto Uzumaki was sitting in a forest clearing, waiting for his sensei Mizuki to return. He had stolen the Forbidden Scroll and had just learned the Shadow Clone Jutsu when Iruka appeared.

"Naruto just what do you think you're doing," Iruka asked, with a mixture of frustration and exasperation in his voice.

"Iruka-sensei," Naruto greeted his teacher in confusion, "Mizuki sensei told me that taking this scroll I could become a genin."

When Naruto saw the confused look on his face is when Naruto knew something was up. However he didn't have long as for some unknown reason a massive explosion happened, almost as if from nowhere. When Naruto came to he was in an old, rotting, decrepit fortress of some kind. Looking around he saw a pedestal in the middle of the room, but the thing lying on the pedestal was covered in dust. Out of curiosity Naruto rubbed some of the dust off the object and once some of the dust was off it revealed a circular shield-like object with a red outer and inner circle, a white circle outside the red inner circle, and the innermost circle was completely blue with a white star taking up most of it. Shrugging Naruto picked up the shield, and seeing it had straps on it, placed it on his arm. Looking around again and he saw the only way out was through the hole he created crashing into the building. Now what few people knew about Naruto was that he was actually very acrobatic, after all he had been chased by a mob of drunken villagers once every month as a general rule so he had to find some way to escape. After spending a few minutes looking for a way up to the hole he spotted some boards on the opposite wall sticking out. Naruto ran and jumped onto the first wooden beam that stuck out of the wall and quickly jumped from that one to the next till he reached the ones that ran along the ceiling. Jumping to the closest one he used them as monkey bars till he got close enough to the hole to jump out of it. Naruto was excited that he had gotten out, for about the time he was still in the air, it was then gravity decided to kick in and sent him falling to the earth below. In an act of desperation Naruto quickly took the shield off his arm and put it under his feet, figuring broken legs was better than being dead. However if he hadn't been looking down the whole time he wouldn't have known he had hit the ground.

Another little known fact about Naruto was that he was actually quite intelligent; he just acted like an idiot to fool everyone. So doing a quick calculation of the building he had landed in, he then was able to figure out precisely where he had come from. However when he got back to the clearing he found Iruka to be nowhere in sight, however Mizuki was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the clearing with the forbidden scroll sitting in his lap. Not knowing what to do Naruto began walking toward Mizuki.

"Mizuki-sensei," Naruto called out, Mizuki didn't even look up, he just unfurled the scroll and began reading. Naruto gritted his teeth, and was about to start shouting, Iruka stumbled into the clearing and he was holding an odd sword, the blade was straight and it appeared to be double edged with a golden hilt that went out like a umbrella and a small sliver of gold colored metal that went from the cross guard to the bottom of the hilt, like a hand guard. At this precise moment Mizuki looked up and saw the items they were holding.

"The Star Shield," Mizuki said in awe, then he turned and saw the sword Iruka was holding, "and the Doomsday Blade."

Naruto and Iruka just looked at Mizuki like he was nuts, bringing up a old legend, before Mizuki vigorously shook his head and glared at them.

"It doesn't matter that you both have a weapon of legend," Mizuki stated in absolution, "I will just kill you and give them to Lord Orochimaru as a gift."

With that Mizuki pulled a fuma-shuriken from his back and began spinning it till it was practically a blur, he then hurled it Naruto who, on instinct, raised the shield and heard a clang then a he felt something shatter. Checking the shield he didn't see any cracks, dents, or even on a scratch; however he saw Mizuki's fuma-shuriken shattered to pieces. It was at this precise moment that Naruto saw Iruka pinned to a tree with a shuriken sticking through each shoulder, and the sword he had earlier was now in Mizuki's hands.

"Tell me Iruka," Mizuki demanded, with a maniacal smile on his face, "why do you defend the Kyubi Brat so much, after all he did kill your parents."

Naruto just stood still in shock; I mean he had known about the Kyubi for a while now, or as he preferred to call her Ayane, he was waiting for Iruka's answer, praying it wasn't the answer anyone else would have said.

"Yes you're right the Kyubi did kill my parents," Iruka replied, shocking Naruto even more and causing Mizuki to smirk, "but you're wrong Naruto isn't the Kyubi, he is a true son of the Village Hidden in the Leaves."

This answer had two reactions, one was that Naruto was more shocked then if Iruka had a agreed he was the Kyubi, and it pissed Mizuki off to the point that his face was red as blood.

"Die then DEMON LOVER," Mizuki shouted, thrusting the sword forward, ready to pierce Iruka's heart and kill him. But just before the blade was going to kill Iruka Mizuki felt his blade hit something metal, which caused the blade to veer way off course. Looking for what might have caused it he saw the shield bounce off a tree and return to Naruto's arm like it belonged there.

"Try to hurt me sensei again and I will pulverize you," Naruto stated, anger edging its way into his voice.

"Like you could Kyubi," Mizuki replied with a massive sneer, Mizuki then charged at Naruto, who smirked and made a cross hand seal.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu," Naruto shouted, and immediately hundreds of clones appeared out of nowhere, "like I said, I'll pulverize you."

With that all the Naruto's threw their shields at Mizuki who could only stare in horror.

"Rain of a Thousand Stars," the Naruto and all clones shouted. When Iruka observed the aftermath he saw a single Naruto with the Star Shield and a big smirk on his face.

"Hey Naruto come here," Iruka said with a smile, Naruto immediately ran over to Iruka with a fox like smile, "Now close your eyes."

Smiling Naruto slammed his eyes shut and felt something being tightened around his head.

"Now open your eyes," Iruka stated, Naruto obediently opened his eyes. When Naruto opened his eyes he noticed that Iruka was missing his head band, reaching up to his forehead he felt cloth and when he rubbed it over the cloth he felt a piece of metal with the engraving of a leaf on it.

"Congratulation Naruto you're now an official Shinobi of the Hidden Leaf Village," Iruka stated, the pride evident in his voice.

"Thanks Iruka-sensei," Naruto said in a tired voice, "now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna pass out now."

With that Naruto collapsed onto the ground and began to snore, a clear sign he was sleeping. All Iruka could do was put Naruto on his back, pick up the Doomsday Blade, and carry Naruto to his apartment.

Meanwhile…

After Naruto's fight with Mizuki objects of legend all over the Elemental Nations began to stir with power long dormant. These objects sent a call to the people they felt would be worthy of them. In a prison laboratory a boy of twelve years felt a violent Rage begin to stir in his blood, in Kumogakure a freshly minted chunin felt the claws in her gauntlets cry out to her, in Konoha three different heirs felt the calling of weapons of old and powers of old, in Suna a lonely boy felt the call of a weapon of god-like power, and in a very abandoned district of Konoha a young weapon master awoke from her slumber and began heeding the call of a weapons that had once belonged to the world's greatest marksman.

However weapons of great evil also stirred, a long forgotten mechanized army began to activate, the "Doomsday Blade" began to send out it's dark call, a spear of untold magics began to eagerly search for one who would wield it for the purpose of chaos, and in Suna a whirlwind unlike any that had ever been seen in the nation's history rampaged inside the place known to them as "The Forbidden Desert".

This was a day in history that all across the Elemental Nations would look back on in the thousands of years to come as the day that A True League of Legends was reborn to the world, and the day that the greatest tyrants known to mankind was reborn to oppose them.

In a realm known as the Void…

Figures of both malvenent and benevolent intent began to stir, as they felt the power in their weapons begin to stir again. With a sadistic smirk one of the more evil beings in the Void immediately began to seek out the most evil of the Elemental Nations to use his dark weapon to conquer, enslave, and utterly imprison the inhabitants, both civilian and ninja alike. But also one of the greatest of the good entities began to send a little of his spirit into his shield to guide the pure soul who currently was in possession of it.

And cut, that's a wrap.

So I know this might suck, I'm gonna try to improve on it.

So tell me what you think, and who your think is gonna be on the side of justice and who will be on the side of the villians.

Till next time, which might be a long time because of Lazy Writer Syndrome.

Stay tuned for the next episode in the Avenging Shinobi: Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
