Egg Fortress-Evening
(Naruto struggles to get up from the bed but he's still badly bruised from his recent battle in the last chapter.)
(Tails helps Naruto raise up a bit.)
Author's Note: This is Archie Comic Tails before the nonsensical reboot started.
Tails: Easy, you took quite a beating.
Naruto: Where am I?
Tails: We're in a holding cell, these people have been imprisoning others who don't belong in this certain place and use them as slaves.
Naruto: That's horrible...
Naruto: I-
(Naruto smells something good.)
Naruto: (Relieved) FOOD...
Tails: Oh, here's your lunch, it's surprisingly not bad or sloppy.
(Tails passes Naruto a tray of good-looking food)
Naruto: (Excited) Thanks!
(Naruto pigs out in front of Tails, shoving every bit of food down his mouth)
Tails: (Wry) (No wonder his stomach was growling so loud all day.)
(Naruto finishes his food and takes a deep breath relief.)
Naruto: Nowhere near as good as ramen, but not bad for prison food.
Tails: By the way, my name's Miles, Miles Prower, but you can call me "Tails".
Naruto: I'm Naruto Uzumaki.
Tails: Nice to meet you.
(Suddenly there is a knock on the metal door)
*Bang*
*Bang*
(General Blue Eye appears and opens up a circular hole before the two.)
Blue: Getting along with your new cell-mate, Tails?
Naruto: YOU!
Blue: Good evening to you as well, allow me to introduce myself...
Blue: My name is Mr. Blue Eye...
Blue: I collect certain beings for trade and you, my friend, are definitely something special.
Blue: I'm bound to make a lot of money trading you in.
(Naruto attempts to form a Rasengan, but it quickly fades away.)
Blue: I don't know what type of abilities those are, but be it magic or superpowers, they won't work in your cell thanks to my special lighting from LuthorCorp which neutralizes powers.
Tails: You won't be able to keep us here for too long, my-!
Blue: (Annoyed) Oh give it up, boy!
Blue: Your friends that you keep bringing up will never find you, in their eyes, you are long gone to them and deep down you know it.
Tails: (Angered) You don't know a thing about my fri-
( Eye zaps tells with his laser eye beam sending him crashing to the wall behind him.)
Naruto: Tails!
(Naruto drops his tray as he quickly runs over to the downed Tails.)
Blue: Goodnight!
(Blue shuts the circular hole.)
Naruto: (Worried) Tails?
Tails: (Crying) Sonic, please... I need you.
(Tails passes out)
Later that night...
(Tails is lying down in bed looking mighty depressed while Naruto is sitting crisscross looking up through the window gazing at the moonlight)
Naruto: (It feels like Blood Prison all over again.)
(Naruto turns his head back to take a quick glance at Tails, then looks back at the moon.)
Naruto: Tails.
Tails: Yes?
Naruto: Don't let what Blue said, get to you, screw him...
Naruto: Wherever they are, I'm sure your friends are doing all they can to find you.
Tails: I know... (Sniffs)
Do you have friends and family looking for you too?
Naruto: Of course, I mean I like to think so.
???: Jeez, I wish I could share the same optimism as you, right now, I'm on the verge of giving up.
(The startled Naruto looks around after suddenly hearing a voice coming from the wall.)
Naruto: Who said that?
Tails: That's Mr. Cage, He's been here longer than me.
Johnny: (Voice Only) Yep, and for some reason, I have a pretty high price...dunno whether to be honored or worried, either way, my life's now screwed.
Tails: But Johnny, you've told so many stories of how you escaped the impossible before, this shouldn't be any different, right?
Johnny: Oh it's different, a whole different ball game.
Johnny: I've never been locked up in a super villain's lair before with all this science fiction bullshit going on around me.
Johnny: Where's your new friend from?
Naruto: I can hear you, pal, the name's Naruto, I'm from the hidden leaf village.
Johnny: And what realm is that from?
Naruto: Earth.
Johnny: Earth?
Johnny: Must be a different Earth, I've been around the world, never heard of it.
Tails: Could be, but he did say "hidden".
Johnny: Huh, good point...
(Johnny yawns as we hear bed movement from the wall.)
Johnny: I'll see if I can think of something in the morning, if not, then it's over for all of us.
Johnny: Life in a new world.
Naruto: Forget that, it's time to go!
(Naruto stands up and starts to stretches out.)
(Naruto walks toward the metal door and effortlessly knocks it down with a simple push using one hand.)
(We pan up to Naruto's face revealing his sage mode eyes.)
Tails: (Shocked) What!?
Johnny: What the hell was that!?
Tails: Naruto knocked the cell down!
Johnny: (Shocked) WHAT!?
Johnny: You gotta be kidding me.
Tails: No seriously, he's walking out of the cell right now.
Johnny: (Amazed) Wow.
(Tails walks out of the cell and joins up with Naruto.)
Tails: How did you... WHY didn't you do that, to begin with!?
Johnny: Yes, please explain, I'm speechless right now.
Naruto: He said we couldn't use any powers or magic, so I used my natural energy.
Johnny: Natural?
Johnny: You sure you're from earth realm?
Tail: (Relieved) This is great, if we're quiet enough we should be able to-
Naruto: Blue, get out here right now so can kick your-!
Tails: (Frantic) NARUTO!
(Tails quickly leaps on Naruto head and starts covering his mouth)
Tails: (Frantic) I thought you were a ninja, ninjas are supposed to be stealthy!
Tails: (Low pitched) Naruto, listen!
Tails: We can't lose our advantage by alarming everyone, right now we need to be stealthy.
(Naruto stops yelling as he looks up along with Tails when 4 Eggbots show up.)
Johnny: What's going on now?
Johnny: Please tell me you were able to shut him up in time.
(And alarm sound goes off)
(Though we have yet to see Johnny in his cell this chapter, a slight bang was heard on the upper part of his cell door, indicating he bumped his head against it, disappointed in Naruto's loudmouth recklessness.)
*Pause*
