Hell or close to it

Chapter 2: Transfer

I do not own Naruto or Halo

Location: Navy Academy,

Day: Friday

Time: 0900 (*1)

'Come on Naruto where the hell are you' thought Iruka. It had been nearly a week since the disappearance of the blonde and the police couldn't find any trace of him anywhere.

His gaze found its way up to the two reasons why Naruto had disappeared in the first place. The pink haired girl and blond haired girl both had empty looks to their eyes. None too surprising to Iruka he could clearly make out bags under their eyes from lack of sleep.

Ino had a deep black eye from yesterday. A girl named Tsume Hatake had slugged her before leaping on top. Iruka could tell that she might have killed the poor girl if he had not intervened. It was not surprising seeing as her and Naruto were childhood friends while Minato was her father Kakashi's, mentor and best friend.

Sakura had been left alone. He could still remember Sakura`s question from the day before.

Day: Thursday

Time: 1600 (*2)

"Um Sensei"

Iruka looked up from his papers to see Sakura Haruno standing in front of him. She had a sad look on her face and it was clear she had been crying again. He tried his best to keep a neutral look on his face rather than show anger. He looks at the clock at a hope of getting out of this conversation and his prayers were answered.

"Sakura class ended 10 minutes ago so why are you still here" he asked in a calm voice. The girl looked hurt by his response but continued as if not hearing him.

"I read up on the space op mission where captain Namizake died and it was over 2 months ago" she watched him nod before continuing "well seeing as he died two months ago... well why did it hit Naruto so hard I thought that he would be prepared for something like this to happen".

Iruka gave her a smile before sighing. "The reason it hit him so hard is because his Dad was his role model and best friend. Also when his Dad died his Mom died a month after during an ODST drop gone wrong, so talking about his dad remind him of his mom as well" Iruka waited a second before continuing "so imagine one second you have a family and then the next second your alone in a your house, the only people watching you are guards who don't really have your full trust" he watched her nod sadly "well there you go, that's why he took it so hard".

She mumbled a thank you before exiting the classroom with more tears streaming down her face.

End

Iruka was pulled out of his thoughts by none other than Shikamaru yelling 'damn it' because his pen no longer was working. Iruka pinched the upper part of his nose in frustration.

'This is going to be one long day' he thought as he prepared to scold the young Nara for his choice of language.

"Could you repeat that again" asked Johnson in a serious voice. Naruto grinned widely.

"I said instead of Navy or marine's, I would like to be signed up for the Spartan program and before you ask I heard my Dad and another high ranking officer speak about it" chuckled Naruto. Johnson was shocked to say the least.

"Well you've got balls to listen in on a classified conversation" said Johnson with a smirk.

"Wouldn't you want a Spartan to have that quality" said Naruto. Johnson had to admit to himself, this kid was the best in the academy from book skills all the way to gun firing. He made a decision quickly.

"Ok but this training will be like nothing you could imagine. Also you will go through multiple augmentations. Each augment has a chance of killing you" Johnson took in a breath as he watched the young blond think over everything before looking up at Johnson with a very serious look.

"I'm in, the crying over Dad and Mom or anything else ends here now" Johnson smiled happily as he watched the Blond.

"Well there will be one more time you cry" said Johnson with a chuckle. The blond looked at him confused.

"During training?" he asked.

"Nope"

"During the Augments"

"You'll be sedated"

"Well I give up then"

Johnson smiled as he brought Naruto to the Military base on earth.

'He should be finishing up the paper work today' thought Johnson with a laugh 'and he thinks that's bad can wait till he sees all the documents he will have to sign to enter the Spartan program'.

Johnson noticed he was standing in front of the Academy so he reached out for the handle of the door and made his way in.

He saw the stairs Naruto described and made his way up them and then down the hallway. He stopped at classroom 8.

'Well let's see how this go's' he thought as he knocked on the door.

KNOCK KNOCK...

"The door Tim" sighed Iruka as he continued to write the answers to the paper on the board.

"I was there during question 6" said a rough voice to Iruka right. He turned to see Avery Johnson. He smiled politely and suppressed a gasp.

"Yah we studied you, amazing not one bullet hit you" he turned to the class. They all were staring at him amazed. "Everyone be polite and greet our guest". Everyone said hello politely.

"Hello class" he turned to Iruka "this is for you".

Iruka accepted the white envelope and opened it. When he finished he looked at Johnson with wide eyes.

"Its final so do not fight me and Naruto on it" he then walked over to Shikamaru and Gaara and handed them each a red envelope.

"It leaves 2100 hours tomorrow, it's your choice" he turned and walked to the door before turning back towards Iruka.

"He will visit you again" with that Johnson left. Iruka stood in the same spot for another 10 seconds before looking at the class.

"Naruto is transferring off world to Reach"
