The Broken Echo Chapter One
"This is Echo-01, in position. Awaiting orders." A quiet voice spoke out, allowing his ear piece to pick up on his voice and transmitting the message where ever it was to go.
"Echo-01, this is Papa Bear; you are a go for operation." Another voice cut into said ear piece to the man who spoke.
Nodding to himself, the known Echo-01 stood up, fully clad in his darker gear, a black military Kevlar vest, with ammo pouches around it, three near the lower abdomen on the left side, two on the right, all five for his 9 Millimeter Berretta sidearm which was strapped to his thigh over the kind of tight black army style jeans. Strapped on his right shin, same side as his handgun was a Ka-bar combat knife, another knife of the same kind was inside his left boot. On the top right of his vest, was three more larger ammo pouches, each holding one magazine for his long barrel Intervention sniper rifle. On his right shoulder was yet another army style combat knife. A simple black mask went over his nose and mouth hiding it away, as well as he was wearing sunglasses to hide his brilliant blue eyes.
Standing about six foot two, a nineteen year old male known as Echo-Zero-One (Echo-01), his real name was unknown, but he was an extraordinary specimen of the male species. Long blond untamed hair that went down a little past his shoulder blades, a nice muscular build gained from hours upon hours of none stop training. All in all, he was very fine in aspects of life.
Sitting down in the foliage at the moment, Echo-01 was hiding on a more upper part of a rocky hill, hiding away as the dead of night was upon him, at that moment, behind his sunglasses, his eyes shifted, well, his right one did. The deep blue in his right eye changed to a brighter sky-like cyan color, while the black pupil shifted shape to a crosshair like thing. Looking through his eyes, there was a lot that was different. Due to the cybernetic enhancements, and the more synthetically made parts, namely his right eye and some of his organs, Echo-01 gained some benefits from having to replace the damaged parts.
Both his eyes were setup as cybernetic, but only the right one was actually fake, both eyes gave Echo as full Heads Up Display or H.U.D. for himself to keep track of objectives and other things, his right eye though was more combat orientated as it had a crosshair connector that quite literally, connected him to his weapon. This way, while his super computer of a brain is calculating everything, the shot is always accurate.
Slowly shifting his position, Echo slowly laid forward while setting up his rifle's under barrel bipod. Then, easing into the stock, he looked out to the base that he was to be watching for his target to snipe. The blond sniper was dead silent as he waited, allowing himself some time to think as he was early. He allowed his mind to wander, but to where, well, somewhere he didn't really want it to go. He started to think back to home, his original continent the Elemental Nations. This was inside the Bermuda Triangle, then to his village, Konoha, or the Village Hidden in the Leaves.
Echo's original name was Naruto, his last name he casted away a long time ago. A young blond boy who was ignored by everyone. Even his own parents. That entire village loved his sister though, Shizune, named after their "Cousin" who was the apprentice of their godmother. Again though, they all ignored him for her. It enraged him to no end to think back about that. Echo-01 was originally a code name for sniper missions, but the call sign Echo kind of stuck so he started to use that as his real name.
Echo was looking through the scope with his right eye, letting the crosshair lock on and scan each and every person he looked over in the terrorist base. The jungle like foliage and greenery plus the darkened night time hiding him away nicely.
Slowly turning the rifle until he stopped, looking through a window, he was staring at two people conversing, one was a Lieutenant if the type of officer clothing was to go by anything, but the other man, the other man was the leader of all this. The bastard who was his target, a one Gabriel Hendrez. A Hispanic male in his late forties. If the profile was to go off of this man, was a monster. Taking aim at the window, Echo reached up and pulled the bolt back to load a round into the chamber, after hearing the click of the 308. Full Metal Jacket round chambering and pushing the bolt forward again, he then reached around and grabbed the under part of the rifle, just waiting for a few moments before taking a deep breathe in….
Exhailing….
Click! That was all the noise there was for what felt like a whole minute, but in reality, it was only a Nano second before the loud crack of the rifle heard throughout the entire base, and the sounds of shattered glass, and then a kind of loud thud. At this point the entire area was on alarm, but for Echo, this was a matter that did not concern him, cause no one knew where he was in the first place, all he had to do was slip away. And he did, simple enough.
Several Hours Later
After hours of nothing but crawling on his stomach through the dark and cold forest, Echo finally stopped near a clearing away from the enemy base. After that, he stood up and began walking out into the clearing before opening his mouth. "This is Echo-01 to Papa Bear, target down. I'm at a clearing at the moment and ready for Evac, transmitting my location coordinance now." He explained before his cybernetic adaptions began doing as he said he was going to.
"Roger that Echo-01, Coordinance received and understood. Good job Echo, be ready for pick up in two minutes."
"Understood Papa Bear, Echo-01 over and out." Echo spoke into his ear piece again before sighing to himself and clicking it off. "Finally, peace to myself for once." He exclaimed quietly to himself before sitting down and leaning back against a tree, awaiting his pickup. Which showed up only moments later, a simple black hawk helicopter.
Boarding silently, he sat down right behind the pilot and right in front of his operations handler, Gab, a small man around five foot five inches with short black hair and a stubby beard, he didn't go on operations as he was a desk jocky, but he was a good handler.
"Nice job Echo, now we can just go home, jobs done, and missions concluded with top scores as always. You realize you're making the other snipers jealous right?" Gab told the blond with a light chuckle.
"Well maybe they should do a better job and not miss." Echo countered before leaning back and looking to the ceiling. "…Gab…You realize I have to go back right?"
"Huh? Oh…you mean there…" Gab gave a soft sigh. "Yeah, I had a feeling you did. You were always distant, even to the girls who try to flirt with you." Gab gave him a slight evil eye before smiling gently. "…Don't worry Echo, I'll hook you up a ride there in a couple days…"
Echo gave a small smile and nodded as he pulled down his mask and took off his sunglasses, closing the flaps and slipping it onto his vest with one flat inside his best and the other on the outside to keep it on there well in place. "Thanks Gab…" At that, Echo looked out to the distance of the window as the helicopter flew away from the mission area.
Three Hours Later, Global Operations Center (G.O.C.)
Echo was leaned back in his office chair as him and six others went through a debrief of everything that had happened sense Naruto's (Echo's) mission in Panama. "And this concludes that the smuggling operations of our newest combat drones were found to be in the hands of the terrorist organization, that our friend here, has just cut the head off of." Said the head of the Stealth and Recon second of the G.O.C, which was part of the U.F.D. (The United Federation of Defense.) Which was what was remaining of the United States, Russia, and Most of Asia after the globe war, they were the victors of said war. This being what happened, made most countries flee Earth, leaving to colonize other planets. The U.F.R. had Earth, Venus, Mercury, and Mars. Jupiter belonged to that of the Akiala, a fanatic group of people who mostly originated from the beginning point of Africa. They had each moon as well for themselves.
The rest of the planets were under investigation, but it's believed to that they were taken by the ISDF, which was the Canadian force. Strange enough, Canada seemed to be hiding their technology for a long time, even though they were the first to leave earth and pull out of the war. They had the most advanced technology, ever. Ion based weaponry, large battle machines, you name it, and they had it. They do remain the U.F.D.'s Ally, but they are for the most part an unknown. No one really had any real idea where they went, all that was known is that they had three embassies, one in New York City, one in Mexico City, and one in Tokyo.
As for Europe, there was a large surprise attack in the beginning of the globe war, from France of all places, they took over all of Europe in a week's time, but threats of America and its allies super weapons, made them flee the planet with tech both their own, and stolen from everyone, they had left the solar system about four years ago. Never to be heard from again, unless they wished to return. As for South America, Middle America, and the rest of the countries. President Isaac Nephliem, nicknamed Arch Angel by Americans for his quick thinking to save what was left of the planet. Offered an idea to Russia, America's biggest ally, and all the rest of the countries who survived the war and were not willing to fight any further.
Isaac, offered an idea, to unit under one flag, one council, one understanding. And as such, the U.F.D. was born.
Echo simple nodded and let the Debriefing continue. He never did talk much anyways.
"Well, to say it simply, Echo, had just single handedly solved our terrorist problems from the group Neo-Kazuna." The older gentlemen finished, before sitting back down. This man was Admiral Albert, from the Navy section of the military, which also to make a quick note was now the largest part of the military due to space travel, a short brown haired man with a single scar going over his left cheek of his old war veteran face.
"Be that as it may, Admiral that is just one of our many issues of terrorist groups on our planets." Spoke a one Alicia Warrener, a high up official in the Special Warfare group that was part of the R&D\Intelligence Center of the branches of militaries. She was a small busted blonde lady of most likely Russian decent.
"Yes, but that one was by far the largest and most potential threat." Argued the Admiral back to the small chested woman.
"Enough you two." A strong voice spoke. This was Echo's commander, now official, they were part of the Special Warfare group, but really they were their own branch of the armies. They were the assassins. Those who go in alone against an entire base and come back with nothing but blood that was staining their uniforms. Not their own blood mind you.
Echo's commander was an older man, probably mid-sixties with snow white hair that defied gravity for almost all parts except the back. Which went down only stopping right above his ass. His steel colored eyes were as cold as the winters in the Antarctic, and those only got progressively worse sense the globe war.
This man was Alexander Rodregez, the first Phantom. The Phantom is both a title, and a classification of what Echo was. An assassin, an enhanced super soldier. A monster on the battlefield. Most Phantoms were natural born killers. Ex-convicts brainwashed to do untold horrors for war. All in the name of survival and winning the war. Slaughtering planets with just a platoon full of them.
But, Phantoms aren't the strongest there are, oh no. There is one set of people who are stronger and way worse. These soldiers, were known as Spectre, said Spectre's were rare and in few of numbers. Spectre's are or were still Phantoms, but the name Spectre, is just a title to give to those on a whole other level of being a Phantom. Six known spectre's who are famous. Alexander is one of them. Echo, was the last one that made that title as of recent.
Echo leaned back in his chair, watching the higher ups argue was both annoying and entertaining. It made him wonder just what kind of commanding officers they were. He knew the Admiral was a caring man, wanting to make sure he saves every last one of his men from annihilation, then Alicia, a cold and hard kind of woman, someone he'd most likely just want to get into bed with once and then be done with it. Also move out of the town that he slept with her in. And NEVER go back.
Echo just decided to close his eyes, looking up at the ceiling he began to drift away into a silent slumber while ignoring everything around him, drowning it out with his mind.
Dream-Scape, Konoha
Eyes snapping open, Echo slowly sat up and shook his head. Looking at the table in front of him, a kitchen table, small, meant for dinning. 'Oh…not this one again….'
Echo, or as he was known here as, Naruto slowly look around. It was his old apartment. The one he got after moving out of his "parents" home. He bought the entire building with his saved up money, and even had enough to both renovate and stock it up.
Naruto moved out cause he was tired. Tired of the babying, and tired of the treatment he was given. Ignored and neglected, but always punished if he tried to train or do anything that had to do with the ninja way. He simply said fuck it, dropped his last names and moved out. He was technically an adult due to laws in place that were set by the first Hokage, having to do with if clansmen wants to simply become a non-clan member and move into Konoha as a simple civilian or even join as a ninja he was welcome to and said clan couldn't do anything about it. Well, except for the Hyuuga, who when they joined Konoha, made it so their clan could void a few laws to do with that kind of thing.
Sighing to himself, he simply stood up and began walking to the door. He'd live through the horrible dream again, he had to, it was his dream. His nightmare. Naruto walked to the door and opened it, but what caught his eye was, it was night out, not day like it usually is for his usual nightmare.
Quirking a brow, he began walking down the steps to take a look around, curious.
Sadly he only got to the bottom step before blackness.
Outside of Dream-Scape, G.O.C. Briefing Room.
Echo's eyes snapped open as someone yelled his name, and he fell back. His chair slid out from under him and slid under the large table while he landed on his back but recovered rather quickly in a simple back flip to gain a stance of combat as if he was under attack.
Well, he was and wasn't. He was being stared at by his commanding officer, and a couple others, but other than that he wasn't getting anything other than glares and sweat drops.
"Well, now that you've decided to wake up from your little cat nap. You're dismissed Echo, and please, next time. Don't pass out because of the two children fighting, it's hard enough dealing with them than having to actually be an old man and wake you up like you're a kid." Said Alexander in a cold, calm, yet caring manner. A small smile graced the old man's face, and Echo returned said ghost smile before turning and leaving.
"Got it boss." Echo said cheekily.
Echo then walked out and began to go for the exit of the building. He wanted to get away from this place as fast as possible, he did only have a week until he had to return home…
And he was going to go back, even if it's only to see a couple of old friends…
All done. Well, that was one hell of an idea, and one hell of a thing to write. NOW! I need to say something, NO I'm not crossing over anything, this stuff is mostly off the top of my head. I may take inspiration from video games, part of this being from supreme commander that inspired a small bit of this.
Yes, There is Sci-fi weapons such as plasma and laser tech, yes Naruto will use them, but due to most of the defensive shields and armors being made to protect from energy weapons, Naruto\Echo learned to use a normal Kenetic weapon (Gun) and enjoys using them more than energy weapons. EN weapons.
Taking some of the names such as Kenetic and EN from Armored Core video game cause can come up with a better way to describe said weapon.
Also. I'm sorry I've been gone for so long! It's been fucking hell at my home. Quite seriously, and I'm uploading this from school cause I was bored, got done with a test and was waiting on everyone elses slow asses. I will be posting a new Chapter of Once Upon A Time SOON! Seriously, as soon as it's finished and I've got a internet source, (Be it at school or at home.) It's getting the fuck up there. Now, Depending on the response to this one we'll see how things go.
Oh, and I'm looking for some help, just some people to possibly be-able to draw weapons, and some other things. If your good at drawing sci-fi vehicles and stuff like that.
Hmm…Okay, to explain how Naruto is now. Well, Naruto, who took up the name Echo, is a child soldier. A cybernetically and genetically enhanced soldier. He's older than most people back at his planet cause his planet's time is slowed compared to where he usually is. Pretty much his twin is now his little sibling. While he's Nineteen, she's fifteen, and so is the rookie 9\12, whatever number.
As for Pairing…Well fuck it someone give me a suggestion here cause got no real idea what I should do for that.
Cyborg!Naruto, Super!Naruto, Coldish!Naruto, Childsoldier!Naruto, Killer!Naruto, Abandoned!Naruto, Spectre!Naruto, U.F.D!Naruto, PossibleFutureMerc!Naruto, BlackChakra!Naruto, and other stuff that I don't feel like talking about at this very moment.
Um….Genderbending is okay, but do NOT take it too far. I mean, Fem!Orochmaru\Naru is…weird but I don't mind it, it'd be hard as HELL to pull off…
By too far is. Naru\Fem!62 different fucking people. If harem, it's not going to be over 12 people….hell it won't be 12 people either. 4 or 5 at the most honestly…I mean I'll even be willing to do 6….if you're good boys and girls.
Yes, lemons, um, DUHHHH going to be in it…
OH yes, and Artists looking to do this…well I can exactly PAY you, but I'm hoping you'd be willing to do this for me. X.x…Please?
Another quick note I should mention is, I need a cover picture. I want it to be Naruto in some futuristic looking armor holding a rifle, send me a PM if you're good at art and want to help.
