Hey guys and girls.
Welcome back to the new chapter for Titanfall Of The Elemental Nations.
So the last place we left off was where Naruto had uncovered probably the biggest secret ever known in his planet. What he found was a ship that had been for around 120 years.
Yet it still retains its power to operate. Even though it will never fly again. Learning quite a bit from an AI called Adjutant, Naruto learns of The Militia, the IMC and advanced robotics being in the form of a massive robot called a Titan.
Deciding to build his own, he sets out to find the construction area of the ship and build a Titan. Hopefully he could build one before the IMC return and kill them for good.
Could this be the form of freedom Naruto has been longing for? Even though he'd be killing for it?
Enjoy.
Disclaimers: I own nothing.
Chapter 2: The Pilot's Gauntlet.
It had been a few weeks since Naruto found the wrecked ship and began sneaking out the house. He had been doing it in the dead of night. Thankfully his father was dumb enough to not have an ANBU stationed to watch him at night.
Every night, he'd leave the house and go to the wrecked ship and tinker on the Titan he was building for the past few weeks. When he opened the doors to the construction area of the ship which was located to the port side of the ship. He found one to be halfway completed. All it was missing was a leg, an arm and some weapons.
Adjutant told him that with this unfinished Titan, he'd be able to shave down the time from 5 years to 2 and a half. This was progress. Not only that, but Naruto's knowledge on all things advanced had become incredibly strong. Rivaling Shikamaru's knowledge. With knowledge of technology beyond one's understand was also a plus. He learnt as much as he could from Adjutant, commanding her to pull any logs and data regarding anything related to the universe.
As it turned out. There wasn't just one planet. There were thousands. The Frontier was only a series of planets on the fringes of the galaxy. There was still so much more out in deep space. He learnt a lot of astrology along with The Militia and the IMC. How they continued to ravage worlds. Stripping them bare and moving on. They weren't colonists. They were destroyers. The Militia steppping in and protecting the Frontier, and all people who lived in it. Trying to fight against the IMC. Even learning hand to hand combat and weapons.
Adjutant was useful when and where she was needed. But sometimes she would be cheeky and say something that sounded insulting. Even though she stated she could be insulting due to it not being in her core programming. It still came off as insulting.
Naruto didn't like it. But Adjutant was helpful. Again where and where she was needed.
He had already found where the bridge was. The armory, the infirmary and the hanger bay. The auxilery power was enough to run the ship as it was currently going at, for 40 years before the power core gave out.
Currently, Naruto was into his 5th week. He was currently replacing some of the damaged circuits in the Titan's arm when Adjutant appeared before him.
"Sir, I wish to talk to you regarding something." said the AI with Naruto looking to her.
"What is it?" asked Naruto setting down his tools and grabbing a blow torch.
"I may have an alternative for you regarding your situation. Biotics." said Adjutant with Naruto switching off the blow torch and looking at the hologram.
"Biotics?" asked Naruto making the lift he was on go down.
"Affirmative. Biotics are synthetic implants placed into a body of a human. They grant the person the ability to use powerful synthetic powers. Hence the name Biotics." said Adjutant with Naruto stepping to the hologram.
"You're suggesting that I put in robotic shit into my body?" stated Naruto.
"It will be to your advantage. Biotics are slightly more stronger than what you call chakra. I've ran simulation after simulation to assertain if it was alright. It is in your case. Due to you having no form of what you call chakra, your body will be able to accept it when compared to someone who has what you don't have." said Adjutant.
"Will I survive the ordeal?" asked Naruto.
"There is a 45% chance that you will end up in a coma for life." said Adjutant.
"Hm, super powers in the form of technology. With a 45% chance of me going into a coma. That means there's a 55% chance of me waking up." said Naruto also running the numbers in his head.
Adjutant had offered him something. A way to gain power. Plus, he realized that there will be times when he'd be seperated from his Titan. Sometimes gunning things down was not going to cut it. With this, he'd be able to stay alive. Looking to Adjutant, Naruto nodded to her.
"Give me the power of Biotics." said Naruto with Adjutant nodding 'her' head.
"Please report to the infirmary where the surgery will take place. Go when ready." stated the AI.
"Whoa whoa whoa. Hold up." said Naruto stopping the train then and there. "Surgery?"
"Correct." said Adjutant. "Biotic implants will be placed onto your bone structure and will give you the power of Biotics. Meaning a few pieces of your bones will have to be removed to accomodate the implants."
Sighing as he walked to the infirmary. Naruto looked to the roof of the ship.
"You'd better not kill me. I'm literally here putting my life in your hands, Adjutant." snarled Naruto.
"The well being of the crew is always my top concern." said the AI as Naruto moved through the ship to the infirmary.
Finally making it to the infirmary after a series of twists and turns, Naruto stood before the door which opened automatically. He was used to that by now. Where as in the past it would be a shock to how a door would open by itself.
Sitting down on a medbay in the infirmary, Naruto watched as Adjutant materialised before him in a nurse's outfit. Shaking his head at why she did that, Naruto lay down after he removed his shirt.
"Please relax. This will be finished soon." said Adjutant.
"How long will it take?" asked Naruto.
"Estimated time of completion: 1 hour." said Adjutant as an automated oxygen mask was placed over Naruto.
And soon, Naruto was out like a light.
Waking up in a dream, he came to the sight of a man sitting on a ledge. The landscape was like it was from a dream. Water was running along walls and had strange energy coming off it. Buildings looked so regal it was like they were meant for nobles.
The man on the ledge soon got up and approached him.
"Right here we go. Welcome to the Pilot's Gauntlet. A course designed in the virtual world to teach upcoming pilots. You'll also be training on the use of your Jump Kit." said the man.
Naruto looked behind him and found a pack with two jets resting on either side of the pack with the thruster pointing out in an angle.
"Here you go. Up and over." said the man pointing at the ledge.
Jumping over the jedge, Naruto began to move through the course. The man constantly teleporting from one end to the next.
"There you go. As you move through the battlefield, you will be able to find better routes. Flanking and cover. The better you know your battleground. The better you fight." said the man as Naruto slid under the obsticle and soon jumped to his feet. That was so cool.
"There you go. Now you're moving. Remember, fighting isn't the most best idea. Maneuvering is also the best method." said the man as they rounded a corner only for Naruto to come to a stop.
"In situations where you can't find a path forward and you're stuck. Remember, the Jump Kit offers a more better means of getting around the battlefield. Use the Jump Kit to pass over this gap." said the man.
The Jump Kit attached to Naruto soon came online and signalled its status when it spat out some fire. Stepping back a few steps and breaking into a sprint, Naruto jumped and engaged the Jump Kit.
To his amazement, he traversed the gap and landed on the other side with no trouble at all.
Running along he soon came to the sight of a massive area while a massive looking item that resembled a sword stuck in the middle.
"In combat, there are times where you have to ditch your current arsenal for better weapons. Things don't go your way. So you must adapt." said the man as several columns came out the ground with so many weapons lining them.
Grabbing two, he found them to be just was he was after in weaponry. A pistol in his hands and an LMG as his other choice.
"Step up to the firing range when ready." said the man.
Doing just that, Naruto stepped up to the open area and soon took aim.
"Remember, firing non stop is unwise. Fire in short burst to increase accuracy." said the man.
Several targets came up and Naruto pulled the trigger and watched the targets vanish when he shot them.
Looking to the man, he moved with the man to another area.
"I want you to do something." said the man. "Switch to your other weapon."
Doing so, Naruto brought out the LMG.
"Good, now switch to your side arm." said the man.
Doing it again, Naruto pulled out his side arm.
"See how fast that was? Remember, switching to your side arm is always faster than reloading." said the man.
"Right, time for you to run the gauntlet. Let's see how you do." said the man. "Begin when ready."
Looking to the course, Naruto soon bolted out and instantly saw a few targets pop up. Pulling out a grenade he threw it and watched it explode. Jumping down from the ledge he was running on, he skidded along the ground and passed under the wall. Getting up he jumped to the wall again and fire at a few targets before jumping to the other wall.
He was doing rather well. Seeing the exit coming up, he moved with more speed and came out the other side.
"Hey, that was my best score." said the man as a leader board came up and showed that Naruto was ranked in the top 3 now.
"Well done. Now we move onto the real training." said the man as white engulfed them.
Opening his eyes again, Naruto found him to be in a wide open area while a Titan stood ahead of them in the field.
"See the Titan? That's my Titan. BT. First ever Titan we built from scratch. Titans grant us more strength and can mow down enemies with ease where as foot soldiers have trouble. The only thing that can stop a Titan, is an overwhelming force. Or an equal. Call in your Titan." said the man.
Doing so, Naruto found a beacon in his hands and threw it. Watching the beacon open up with a blue light, he looked up and found something falling at such speeds. The object soon broke up with a Titan landing into the field. But for some reason, the scene became frozen in place. Like it was not responding.
But Naruto soon felt himself waking up. He was back in the real world. Looking around to find himself on the med bay bed, he looked to Adjutant and found his body littered with scars. Not even one stitch was seen.
"Welcome back, sir." said Adjutant.
"I take it the operation was a success. Considering how I am awake." stated Naruto.
"Affirmative." said Adjutant.
"Why don't I have any stitches?" questioned Naruto.
"The medical facilities here are more advanced than that of planet 1972. Open wounds would be healed to become meer scars." said Adjutant.
Thinking a bit as he slowly got off the med bay, Naruto looked to the hologram and asked.
"What are Biotic people?" asked Naruto.
"Elaborate." said Adjutant.
"Okay, then what were the Biotics of The Militia?" restated Naruto.
"The individuals who could use Biotics were classified as Spectres. Powerful supersoldiers that could take down forces with ease. Combining warfare with cybernetics. Each soldier is placed into a class. Vanguard, Soldier, Adept, Engineer, Sentinel, and Infiltrator." stated Adjutant.
"And what class did you put me as?" asked Naruto.
"Based off the data I extracted from the scan I did when we first met, I ensured which class would suit you. You are a combination of two classes. You're a Vanguard class Biotic. Together with Infiltrator class Biotics. That has never been seen before. You're what we call: Paradox. And the first ever one to be exact." said Adjutant.
"Then I shall take my leave."said Naruto.
"Activating security measures." said Adjutant with the lights of the ship slowly turning off.
Once Naruto was out of the ship, he watched the ship camoflauge itself to look like a dirt pile. He was really grateful he restablished that cloaking device when he did. Making his way back to his home, he wondered what type of abilities he had now gained thanks to the implants in his body. Surprisingly, he wasn't in pain. Must have been the drugs that Adjutant used on him.
But he knew he'd be doing everything he could to grow stronger. He was still working on his Titan and he needed to complete it before the IMC got here. The fate of his world was literally in his hands.
And scene.
So Naruto has found himself a Titan. With the Titan not even being completed, his time is cut down to half of what it would take to build one by hand.
Not only that, but he has also gained powerful abilities through the use of technology. Being a Vanguard and Infiltrator class Biotic, he will have quite the unique abilities. Sure it would be slightly useless against a jutsu, but it was to give him better firepower in a fight. And considering his new opponents have guns, it will be easier.
