Hello! So, just for some clarification, this is taking place in the 1st season of Clone Wars and at some time in Naruto Shippuden. I hope you enjoy chapter 2. By the way, I do not own the clone wars or Naruto. Let this disclaimer serve for this entire story because I'm really forgetful! :P
"Whoa!" Naruto exclaimed. "What the heck happened here?" He was staring at a huge rock. Well, to be fair it looked more like a metal boulder. It was burnt, dented, and in the middle of a crater. "It looks as though it fell from the sky." Sai suggested. Sakura agreed with Sai, there had been a minor earthquake the day before and now they find this huge thing that looked like it made the ground cave in.
"I'm gonna check it out." Naruto said nonchalantly, about to enter the crater. Sakura's hand reached out, grabbed the collar of his jacket, and yanked him back. "Idiot!" She hissed. "We don't know what it is. For all we know, it will obliterate anything that goes near it!" Sai and Yamato agreed. Naruto rolled his eyes at them for nodded and taking her side. "I'll just have a clone go down and check it out then." He began to weave the sign to make a clone appear, but this time Sakura slapped his hands, hard. "Oww.." He whined. "Sakura, you didn't have to use your monster strength!"
"Shut up, Naruto!" Sakura hissed, placing a blow on his head. She hated when he called her superhuman strength "moster strength." "How do we know it's not a bomb. One of your clones could end up setting it off, then we're all dead." Naruto sighed, he was pretty much out of ideas then. "Well, what are we supposed to do then?" He asked as he flopped down on the grass. "Leave it how it is? Just watch it for hours?"
Sakura sighed, he had a point, but she had an idea. "Captain Yamato, how thick can you make a dome a around that thing."
"I see what you have in mind." Yamato responded. "As thick as we want." Sakura nodded, that was good. "Naruto you can make a clone to go near there, while Captain Yamato can form a dome around it in case it explodes." Naruto jumped up, excitedly. "Okay," He said at his usual vocal volume (loud). He formed a clone and sent it within one hundred feet of the thing. Yamato began to create the dome using his wood style. As the Naruto clone got closer, the dome got thicker.
Eventually, the clone was left with about three feet of space between himself and the thing. Darkness surrounded him, and he was unable to see a thing. His only helpful senses were hearing, smell, and touch. All sound of the outside was blocked off by the thick layers of wood, and the thing wasn't making any noise. Maybe hearing wasn't as helpful as he thought. He could smell the woodsy smell of the wood surrounding him, and if he focused, the burnt metal. He laid his hand against it and braced himself as his hand brushed the cool, dented surface. It didn't explode, he heaved a sigh of relief, Sakura's words seriously got to him.
He circled the thing over and over again. It wasn't a boulder as he had previously thought, no boulder would be this smooth. He could feel what felt like glass on one spot of the thing. It was obviously man made. When he began to tap it, he felt that it was in fact hollow.
That's when he heard it, the sound of a small struggle. The noises of movement from inside the thing. He began banging on the side, trying to communicate. "Hey," He called. "Is someone there?!" His yelling was interrupted as a glowing green blade cut through the glass portion of the thing.
Any thoughts on this? Please review. I will update faster when I have more reviews. I'm kind of playing this by ear, so if there are any suggestions, I'd love to hear them.
