Chapter 2 of the fic Of Demons and Coordinators will be near you! As for the review, Naruto will NOT pilot the Buster or the Strike, although there will be a fictional Mobile Suit that is based on those machines. The Ultimate Ninja Shinosuke will be most likely to pilot a Providence-based machine. But that won't happen much until later in the fic. Also, as I've pointed out, Kira and the original Freedom will still be alive, which is why Yzak will pilot the Strike Freedom. The Savior will still be intact, which is why Dearka will pilot the Infinite Justice instead of Athrun.

Chapter Two: Growing Up

Year 71 of the Cosmic Era, where the Bloody Valentine War has come to an end, but sadly, another war was brewing in the horizon, where the true reasons behind these major conflicts has been revealed. Meanwhile, the three major powers, ZAFT, the Orb Union, and the Earth Alliance has continued to expand their influence in the shinobi world. However, the Earth Alliance has extract little influence, and as a result, the Land of Fire is under the control of the Orb Union, and the remaining lands were under PLANT control.


In the Land of Ice, Naruto Uzumaki was training in the academy, along with the Ultimate Ninja Shinosuke Asuka. They met when they were 5 years old. Since then, they have been inseparable.

"Naruto, wanna go spar with me?" Shinosuke asked.

"Yes, Shinosule." Naruto replied. His life was altered for the better ever since a mysterious jounin from Hyougakure snatched him from the Konoha nin, who were bent on exterminating the "demon" brat, ever since that tragic day. Everyone in the cold village treated the Kyuubi container with respect, and with love. Anyways, Shinosuke and Naruto were practicing with their taijutsu, when a delegation of diplomats from the PLANTs came in, with Eileen Canaver in tow.

"Who is that lady?" Naruto asked.

"That must be the lady responsible for our alliance between our nation, and theirs. They were from the Land of the Hourglass." Shinosuke said. It was a common knowledge that the shinobi world referred the PLANTs as another shinobi nation.

"I've got to go home, all right? Same time, same place tomorrow, eh?" the ultimate ninja asked. "We've got the graduation exam too, as well."

"All right." Naruto said.

Meanwhile, Eileen Canaver, and the other representatives went into the office of the Hyoukage, and the ANBU guards bowed to them, as they went in.

"Chairperson-sama, Hyoukage-sama was expecting you." one of the ANBU said.

"All right." Canaver said.

The Hyoukage was seated in his desk, slaving away with the paperwork, when he noticed the disturbance.

"Ah, welcome, welcome. How may I be of great sevice?" the Sandaime Hyoukage said.

"Hyoukage-sama, I came here to discuss the possibility of organizing a mobile suit corps for this nation, along with the other Great Nations. I've brought along the Tsuchikage, Kazekage, Mizukage, and Raikage with me." the temporary Chairwoman of the Supreme Council said.

"Of course, we will accept." the Hyoukage said. "It was also rumored that the Land of Fire, along with Sound were also planning in this as well, except that their purpose was as I quote, 'For the preservation of our blue and pure world!'".

"Dammit. So the Alliance were planning to ignite another war?" Yuri Amalfi asked. "We don't need another war."

"Well it's settled." Canaver said. "We'll send our advisors on this matter."

The next day, the graduation exam proceeded without any trouble. For this exam, Naruto had to camouflage in the snow, to prove his stealth skill. He also had to spar with a Jounin instructor, who was not allowed to use any weapons. Finally, he had to run from one end of the village to another without getting caught. Needless to say, here's the result.

"For the stealth test, you pass!" the first instructor said. He managed to conceal himself easily because of his clothing.

"For the combat test, I'm glad to say you passed with flying colors!" the second instructor said. Naruto was constantly practicing with his taijutsu with Shinosuke to have passed.

"For the endurance test, you not only passed, but excelled as well." the third instructor said. Easily said, the large chakra reserves from the Kyuubi were a factor.

Shinosuke passed was well, being the Ultimate ninja. It was easy for him. At the end of the day, 150 academy students had now become Genin. However, Naruto, and Shinosuke were called for extra training with the village, something to do with the top secret project that would ignite a war within the war.


It wasn't surprising that Naruto and Shinosuke had passed the exams with flying colors, being the Ultimate ninjas and all. Later in the night, they had met up the third Ultimate ninja in the form of Amaya Musashi. She was a nice person, providing that you don't get on her wrong side. Immediately, the three had struck up a firm friendship that would be known throughout the story. Meanwhile, in the PLANTS, Yzak Joule and Dearka Elsman had just finished going through that tribunal. The crimes that they did during the Battle of Orbit, and Dearka's surrender. The demoted blond grumbled.

"This sucks. I had a good reason why I had to surrender." Dearka said.

"It would have been better if you fought to the death." Yzak said as they walked by. News about his mother's house arrest had affected the young Joule. Since then, he had to be in the Supreme Council meetings as part of Martius City. They walked into their old comrade, Shiho Hahnenfuss, and started to go to a coffee shop.

"I guess that they let you go?" Shiho asked.

"Yeah. But Elsman here wasn't lucky. He got demoted for surrendering." Yzak said.

"Well, he was kinda stupid for doing that." Shiho replied.

"Like I know the answer to what I should have done." Dearka said.

They purchased some coffee, and got a table for three. Yzak then started to get his laptop, and went through his files.

"You know. The PLANT Supreme Council has something going on in the Hidden Countries. I just saw Canaver come back regarding some new deal that they had with the Hyoukage there." Yzak said.

"It's a good thing that we dominate the Hidden Countries. Otherwise, we're toast." Dearka replied. "It's like we're the imperial power in that place."

"We are the imperial power in that place, Dearka." Yzak said. "They have provided us with help, and we had provided some help for them too."

"Yeah, it's a great thing that the Earth Forces aren't extracting influence there." Shiho said. "Except the Ka no Kuni, and that is under Orb's rule."

"Of course." Yzak said. "The Seirans are extracting influence there. And I even heard that Blue Cosmos is popular there."

"Well, you're kinda screwed should you ever live there." Dearka said.

And they chatted for the rest of the day.
