God Tree's Geass Branch
Chapter 2
As Naruto listened to Lelouch's plan to defeat Britannia and find out what really happened to his mom and get revenge for what happened to his sister he found himself a bit unsure about the kid. On one hand he worried about the possible path of darkness he could end up going down but on the other hand he knew when going against a nation as terrible as Britannia a path of darkness was a worthy risk.
Though that didn't mean he would stand by and let the kid end up like that. Even if that meant they'd butt heads in the future given he was here to help Lelouch, not obey his every command or anything.
"What about you two, what do you intend to do? CC gave me Geass to help my plans but why did you two come all the way here? I doubt it was just to keep me company" Lelouch said with a slight frown as Naruto shrugged his shoulders with a bit of a smirk.
"I made my stand and opinion obvious in Shinjuku, rearming that red Knightmare and breaking off an arm of the white Knightmare. I am a fighter Lelouch, if you are to go through with this plan you will need soldiers and trust me when I say I am a veteran" Naruto confessed as he leaned back against the back of the couch, giving him a smile that helped Lelouch quickly connect the dots. "Though keep in mind you will not order me around and command me. You may tell me what you'd wish for me to do and for the most part I see myself listening but if something else is on my mind I will do what I feel is right" Naruto said, his eyes gaining a serious tone to them that made Lelouch nod slightly at, a bit intimidated before he turned to Cecilia.
"What about you?" Lelouch asked, figuring if the woman who had given him Geass had found him and brought along a warrior she might have something in mind. Though as Cecilia wandered back to her pizza it seemed she wasn't too invested.
"I'm not sure yet so it depends on how you progress. I can assure you I will do nothing to endanger you or your sister. We made a contract and I intend to make sure you can fulfill your half of it" Cecilia said as Naruto smirked as he noticed a look in Lelouch's eyes that reminded him of Shikamaru.
"Ask some of your questions as I highly doubt you'll let us send you back without any answers" Naruto said as he might as well ease some of the kid's questions before he went back to his sister.
"First of all how were you able to enroll here so easily, and with a Japanese name no less" Lelouch asked as he was surprised he was able to enroll given his name and CC's alias.
"Simple, one of my powers are to trick others with illusions. I make them not notice or care for it. You are immune to that illusion aspect due to having a contract with CC" Naruto said, his eyes changing to their Rinne-Sharingan which made Lelouch widen his eyes a bit as he looked them over before he turned them off.
"Is that the form your Geass takes?" Lelouch asked before Naruto shook his head before Cecelia turned back towards them.
"His power isn't Geass, it's a power that predates Geass long before Geass was even a thing. His power is far beyond Geass or anything I could ever hope to grant. He showed his power to you a bit in Shinjuku but that was merely his strength" she said as Lelouch had been wondering how it was possible for a mere human to fight a Knightmare without one of his own let alone carrying a spare arm like it was nothing.
"I'm really strong, agile, and fast. You will see more of my skills as I fight alongside you but for now be patient" Naruto said, shutting him down before the boy could try and press for more info. "For now I think that is enough questions as we still have things to set up" he added as he had someone to visit and things to get ready for later.
"I recommend finding out the specifications of the Geass I gave you. The sooner you know it's limits the less likely you are to get caught off guard" Cecilia said as Lelouch nodded, a serious look in his eyes before he nodded.
"Okay, we'll find more time to talk given you are going to be in the Student Council with me from now on" Lelouch said as he walked out, leaving them alone.
"Well he seems interesting, feels like he might be a bit full of himself so I guess we'll see" Naruto said with a chuckle, standing back up as he looked towards Cecilia.
"Yes he is, he's very driven. I hope as well that his drive doesn't make him act rashly. With him finally having something to allow him to fight back I fear he might rush into things too much" Cecilia said as she took a bite of pizza before looking over at him. "What exactly do you have to get set up by the way?" she asked with a raised brow making him smirk and pet her head.
"I'm going to talk with someone to see if I can get a Knightmare made" he said as he activated his Rinne-Sharingan and a black portal opened behind him, making Cecilia raise an eyebrow at.
"So soon? Do you have an idea in mind as going without one would waste their time" Cecilia said before he nodded and summoned a shadow clone for her and kissed her forehead as he put his hands on her hips.
"I have a few, we'll see what is possible and I promise not to be out too late" he add before she smiled and patted his cheek softly.
"Good and I'll try not to have too much fun with the clone as I like playing with the real thing" she said with a giggle before she walked off, dragging the clone off with her as Naruto chuckled and made his way through the portal.
-Military District of India-
Naruto let out an impressed whistle as he stepped through, finding the compound to be incredibly high tech. "Got a swanky set up here don't you Rakshata?" Naruto asked as he held up his hands to show he was no danger as guns, belonging to those he figured to be the guards, pointed at him. "Easy there, I mean no harm" he said as the scientists looked at him confused, undoubtedly confused how he got here.
"Who are you!? How did you get here without anyone noticing!?" one guard yelled as Naruto pointed his thumb back at the Yomotsu Hirasaka portal behind him.
"I am someone looking to get a Knightmare made and I came in through a portal that I made. Personally I believe doing something like this earns me to at least talk to Rakshata, if she wants to talk that is" Naruto said before a hand holding a long thin corn cob pipe rose up from a couch he was behind.
"Let the man talk as I do have to say I am very interested in him, especially if he came all the way here just to see me" a female voice said as the owner of the hand stood up and turned around.
The woman was quite attractive, tall with fair brown skin and bright long blonde hair. Her eyes were turquoise and he also noticed a purple bindi on her forehead. She wore a dull dark pink button up shirt that by the look of it only had one button done and effectively showed off her high DD cup chest and a bit of her black bra along with a pair of black pants and white lab coat.
"Hmmm, well I have to say you are different from what I expected. Not that that is a bad thing" she said, more to herself it seemed as she walked around him before bending over a bit to look at the portal behind him. "So where does this lead?" she asked, about to reach her pipe through before he stopped her.
"Japan and I wouldn't do that as it will crush you. I have it tuned to me as my body can handle it, I did it to make sure no one snuck through" he said as he looked down at her as she smirked back at him before he closed his portal to stop anyone from trying anything.
"Smart" she said as she walked back over to her couch, motioning for him to follow as she sat back down. "So, what is this I hear about a Knightmare mister…?" she asked while lighting her pipe back up, asking for his name.
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki and it is simple, I wish to have a Knightmare made to fit my fighting style. In return I can give you the arm of a rather high-tech Knightmare I fought and a crystal I am told will come in handy in making any Knightmare you make even stronger" Naruto said as he sat down on a chair provided for him by one of the guards, the others still having their guns pointed towards him – which while annoying didn't bother him too much. "I know already the crystal can amplify energy and when paired with Sakuradite it can magnify things easily" Naruto said as he clapped his hands, slowly pulling them apart as he created a rather sizeable cube of it in between them.
Rakshata was surprised and rather shocked as this man created a crystal cube out of thin air before handing it to her. "Well, you just are one surprise after another. What exactly is this crystal made of?" she asked as she looked it over, holding it up to the light above her to let her see its shine.
"It is an element long extinct. Even back when it was last seen the most available was only enough for a small necklace" Naruto said as he pulled his necklace, one that he had remade long ago, for Rakshata to see. "I do have one stipulation" Naruto said as he grew a serious look on his face.
"And what would that be?" Rakshata asked, lowering it to her lap as she rose an eyebrow at him.
"I will provide you with as much of the crystal as you want, if your observations prove my theory to be true, but in return you are only to use it for Knightmares I approve of" he said as he stared her in the eyes. "That crystal has an important meaning to me, and while yes I am using it to be a part of weapons, I do so with good intentions" he said making Rakshata rub her chin in thought before she smiled and waved him off.
"That is fine with me as you are the supplier, though what should we call this pretty beauty?" she asked, looking the cube over once more.
"Tsunadite" he replied quickly with a smile. "Makes sense as Tsunade Senju was the name of the woman who gave me the necklace" he said with a warm smile as he put his hand over the necklace.
"Sentimentality, can't say I blame you" Rakshata said with a slight smile as she handed the cube to a nearby scientist. "Here, analyze this fully. See how it would handle beside Sakuradite and on its own. I want it in depth" she ordered, the man nodding as he hurried off. "Also what is this about an arm?" she asked making Naruto nod as he stood up.
"Lets see…where can I let it out?" Naruto muttered to himself as given its size he didn't want to break anything. He continued to look until he found a spot and, in a swirl of space, the white and gold arm of the Knightmare he fought before appeared on the ground laid out.
"Oh my! I know this design! I saw it on the news! You mean to tell me you are the one who damaged that Earl of Pudding's precious new toy!?" Rakshata asked, seemingly ran over from the couch once she saw a good look of the Knightmare's arm from a distance.
"Yes, all without a Knightmare. Plus I couldn't go to that man, if he can't make one to handle fighting me he definitely wouldn't be able to make one for me" Naruto said with a smile before the room shook and a loud explosion rattled through, alarms quickly following after.
"What is going on!?" Rakshata asked, not liking being interrupted before she could finalize the talks with this mysterious yet incredibly interesting man alongside being stopped before she could inspect the arm that was gifted to her.
"Miss Rakshata we are under attack! We have to evacuate to the bunker before they break in after blowing away the sand above the entrance!" one guard yelled as Naruto frowned at the clearly Britannian Knightmares on the screen that popped up to show what was going on.
"Oh so we are under a desert? I can work with this" Naruto said as he activated his Rinne-Sharingan before opening a horizontal portal just above his head. "Everyone stay put, I can deal with them for you all" he added, donning the same cloak he wore in Shinjuku.
"Deal with them? They are armed with Knightmares and bazookas! It'll be suicide!" one scientist yelled as Rakshata held up a hand to stop him.
"Are you stopping them in hopes of getting me to make you a Knightmare? Or something else?" she asked, looking him in the eyes as he smiled back at her.
"Simple, I'm doing this to stop Britannia and keep you all safe. You can still deny my request but a part of me thinks you aren't going to" he said before her serious look melted and she smiled at him.
"Then by all means, go stop these brutes. The sooner they are gone the sooner we can continue out talks" she said, sitting back down on the couch, showing she was felt safe where she was while Naruto merely nodded and hopped up into the portal.
Once through Naruto pulled himself out of the portal and onto the sands of the Thar Desert as well as at least seven Knightmares that were seemingly scanning the desert for the entrance to Rakshata's lab. "Boys," he said getting the attention of the Knightmares who all turned towards him "I'm giving you a chance. Either turn around or I won't hold back" he added as their guns all pointed at him.
"Halt! Surrender now or we will arrest you!" one Knightmare pilot said over their speaker, making Naruto sigh as he shook his head in exhaustion.
"Don't say I didn't warn you" Naruto said as he held out his hands, his palms down towards the sand below as he send a flood of chakra into the vast desert below him. He took a few breaths as he heard them coming closer, cocking their guns before he flipped his hands palm up and the desert below him burst up suddenly.
"Don't worry Naruto, a desert is my domain! I'll help you move the sand to take these tin cans down!" Shukaku said with a mad laugh, making Naruto smile as he knew with Shukaku a desert would make him untouchable.
The two Knightmares closest to him were unable to react in time as the wave of sand quickly wrapped around them and crushed their Knightmares before the others were able to notice. Once the explosions seemingly stirred the others out of their shock they went on the offensive, firing their guns and bazookas at him only for the desert sand to shield him.
"Foolish humans! With my control that sand is impenetrable!" Shukaku cackled out as Naruto thrust out his hands, making the sand converge and rise up like a tidal wave to chase down the Knightmares.
"Damn! What the hell is this guy!" one pilot yelled out as they tried to drive away from the wave only to come to a sudden halt. "W-What the?! The sand is swallowing up our tracks!" he yelled as the remaining pilots noticed how their Knightmares were now down to their ankles in the sand, keeping them from escaping the wave that crashed down on them.
"I gave you a warning…this is your fault. Sand Coffin" Naruto said with a sigh as he clenched his hands halfway into a fist, causing the sand to tighten up underneath him and around all the Knightmares. "Sand Burial!" he yelled, squeezing his hands into fists causing explosions to be heard under the sand as from the sand squeezing the Knightmares with extreme pressure he was able to take out all the remaining Knightmares.
"May the sands of the Thar Desert be your grave" he said, frowning as he hopped back into the portal to see the others staring at the computer screens, undoubtedly watching him, in shock.
"Well, I definitely say you deserve your Knightmare. Plus with the delicious technology I inspected in the arm you gave me, I will be able to make you a truly fearsome and beautiful child~" Rakshata said with an excited and happy smile that made Naruto smile and chuckle at.
"Well then, let's talk about what I have in mind" he said as he sat down at the seat Rakshata motioned for him to use with a smile, a sparkle in her eyes telling him she was excited to get down to business.
-Next Day-
With the events in India going over amazingly last night Naruto was able to get things done with more than enough time left over to spend with Cecilia before the two of them went to bed.
Though as morning came around Naruto looked himself over in the mirror, finding the uniform to not be that bad. Cecilia though looked even better in her uniform as the jacket perked up her breasts a good bit and the skirt did well for her ass, her best feature if he was to be honest.
"I guess uniforms aren't be that bad, especially considering how you look in yours" he said with a smile as he wrapped his arms around her waist and gave her neck a soft kiss.
"Yes, it is quite cute, plus you look handsome in yours as well" she said as she cupped his cheek, smiling at him through the mirror. Their moment though was somewhat ruined as they heard a throat clear behind them with Naruto turning to see Lelouch frowning at them.
"I hope you two won't be so clingy in school, they aren't too fond of public displays of affection" Lelouch said, still wanting to ask the duo questions that had been on his mind. Although seeing them like this, despite knowing how powerful the two of them were, was odd as they acted more like teenagers in love.
"Oh relax Lelouch, no one will notice anything if I don't want them to. All it takes is a look in my eyes and they'll see things normally" Naruto said, flashing his Rinne-Sharingan for a brief moment before giving Cecilia a kiss on her cheek.
"More importantly though Lelouch, how has your Geass been treating you? You learn much about it?" Naruto asked as he grabbed his and Cecilia's bags. "Each Geass is tricky but I can tell yours lets you issue commands others have to follow. Something powerful like that is bound to have restrictions" he said, making Lelouch frown as he crossed his arms.
"I know, I've already had an issue when I tried to make the pilot of the red Glasgow not mention Shinjuku after questioning her. Now because of it I've made her suspicious" he said making Naruto chuckle a bit at.
"Sounds like it might only work once per person. Definitely need to get everything under control Lelouch, nothing worse than a tool you don't know how to use and it biting you in the ass" he warned before he linked his arm with Cecilia's. "So who was the pilot of the Glasgow? Seems interesting you'd find her here of all places" he pointed out with a smile as Lelouch frowned, something the boy was doing a lot of.
"Her name is Kallen Stadfeld, she's half Japanese and prefers the last name Kozuki. She's an interesting girl but she's suspicious of me but look, after class Milly is going to come find you two to talk about Student Council stuff. After that I'd like to figure more out about what you can possibly help me with, maybe get Kallen off my trail" Lelouch said, somewhat narrowing his eyes to show he was serious as Naruto waved him off as they walked ahead.
"Fine, fine, we'll talk after. I'm sure I can help" Naruto said, rolling his eyes a bit as they walked out of the room.
"I do hope school isn't too boring, personally I don't know why I let you enroll me" Cecilia said with a frown as she looked at him from the corner of her eye. "I could be relaxing in the room all day with pizza" she added as he nodded.
"True you could but you get to spend the whole day with me, the real me and not a clone, so I feel that makes up for it. Right?" he asked making her hum in thought before she nodded.
"That does make up for it. I still expect pizza daily though as payment to go through school again" she told him, making him chuckle as he nodded and kissed the top of her head.
"Deal" he said, continuing their way until they arrived at the school and made their way to the front office to get their class schedules.
Honestly, as the day went by, school wasn't as bad as he thought. Classes weren't that bad as it seems Milly's grandfather helped keep the two of them together in terms of both classes and seats. Plus with his years of watching over everything he had everything pretty much down pat.
For the most part Cecilia had spent most the class with her chair against his and either snuggling or napping against him with him using subtle illusions to make no one notice.
He on the other hand was focused on Kallen Kozuki, the pilot of the Glasgow he had helped in Shinjuku.
She was rather beautiful with straight dull red hair, blue eyes, and a rather slim body save for her easily G cup chest. He hadn't met her in person back in Shinjuku but one look at her and he could tell she was putting on a façade with how she presented herself to others. He had also noticed how weary she was of Lelouch, most likely due to him making her suspicious of him with his Geass blunder.
'The suspicious type can be difficult to get them to trust you but as long as I'm not like Lelouch I don't think I'd have a problem' he though as the day passed on until the last bell rang.
Almost immediately once the bell rang Naruto and Cecilia watched as Lelouch packed up his bag and, after blowing off an orange haired girl, went straight over to Kallen.
"You think you can spare a minute? I need to talk to you" Lelouch said, making the girls in class, along with the orange haired girl react in shock.
"God he really isn't good with dealing with people is he?" Naruto whispered to Cecilia who smirked and shook her head.
"Apparently not" she said as Kallen looked up at Lelouch before standing up.
"Sure, I was wondering when you were going to ask" Kallen said with a straight face, Naruto sighing as he stood up, Cecilia standing up with him.
"Well, as much as I'd love to see how Lelouch continues to put his foot in his mouth, I believe we have somewhere to be while Lelouch deals with his brashness" Naruto said, holding Cecilia's hand as she smirked and followed along.
"You think she's going to try anything? Lelouch isn't exactly being subtle about things as he is more or less playing into her suspicions" Cecilia said while Naruto shrugged his shoulders.
"I doubt it but I don't think we have to worry. If I can get alone with her I might be able to help things out" he told her, smiling as she looked confused before she too smiled back.
"You are going to tell her aren't you?" she asked making Naruto chuckle and tap his nose with his finger.
"I feel if I give her someone to trust I can move the suspicion away from Lelouch. All that matters is that Lelouch doesn't mess things up but we'll see. Now come on, I believe Milly is waiting for us" he said, pulling her along as she smiled as if excited to see how things played out among them.
"There you two are~! Can't have two of the guests of honor be absent from their welcome party" Milly said with a smile as they entered the student council club room.
"Welcome party? How sweet" Cecilia said with a smile as she hugged his arm. "Will there be pizza to eat?" she asked making him chuckle a bit at while Milly nodded.
"Of course Mito, I got a good bunch of food so there will be enough to eat as we get to know each other~" Milly said, purring a bit at the last part as her eyes locked with his making him blush a bit.
'Oh great, another Cecilia in terms of how forward she is' he thought with a dry chuckle before he could see Cecilia smirking like a cat that ate the canary towards Milly which spelled even more trouble out for him.
"Well come on~ I already got Shirley waiting for us at the club hall, right this way" Milly said as she hugged his other arm, smiling over to Cecilia who merely smirked back at her.
Naruto felt a bit odd walking with two girls on his arms but from the look on Cecilia's face, she apparently didn't mind Milly clinging to him.
"So how long have you two been together? Recently a couple or what?" Milly asked as she was always hungry for info on others, especially a new couple like this.
"I've known Naruto for a very long time, he's been mine for a while. Though, I don't mind sharing~" Cecilia said, smiling over to Naruto who refused to look at her, his eyes stuck looking up at the ceiling. While he in the past, before he sealed himself up, did have multiple wives he wasn't too sure how it'd go in more modern times.
"Oh my~ how progressive of you two~" Milly said with a canary eating smile that made Naruto more nervous of the endowed student council president. "Say where is Lelouch?" Milly asked, just now noticing that he hadn't apparently came with them.
"He was supposed to come with? He only told us to go to you after class as he had something to talk to a girl named Kallen about" Naruto said as with Lelouch being so outright with asking Kallen to talk he figured he wasn't trying to really hide anything.
"Oh he must be bringing her as she's also going to be joining the student council" Milly said with a smile as they continued on through the school before they entered a kitchen with a large cart stacked with some fancy looking food.
"Before we head to the ballroom do you think I can get help from a strong man to help push this cart of food there?" Milly asked making Naruto chuckle a bit at before he nodded.
"Fine, fine, I got it. Just lead the way" Naruto said as he grabbed the cart and looked at them to head towards the ballroom, Milly smiling as she and Cecilia went ahead of him. It didn't seem too far as after a few turns, all the while Cecilia and Milly were whispering a bit to one another – which worried him – they had arrived at what he figured to be the ballroom.
He couldn't help but smirk a bit as he saw a surprised Lelouch and Kallen already in there. 'Oh you just have the worst luck right now don't you' he though with a chuckle as he started unloading dishes.
"I finished up on my end~ I even was able to get some muscle to help me~" Milly said, motioning to him with a smile as she and Cecilia watched him work.
"Way to go Milly-wait, isn't that one of the new members?" the orange haired girl that Lelouch blew off earlier said as Milly waved her off with a smile.
"It's fine, he said it was okay when I asked him" Milly said as Lelouch looked more and more confused.
"What is all this?" Lelouch asked, Naruto feeling a large amount of annoyance bubbling inside the boy although expertly hidden on the outside.
"Didn't you know? I thought that was why you brought her?" Milly asked a bit confused as she turned towards Lelouch and Kallen. "Alongside Naruto and Mito we are also inducting Kallen into the student council. It was my grandfather's idea actually, he thought with her poor health she'd have trouble with regular club activities" Milly said, smiling over to Kallen as she walked a bit towards her.
"By the way I'm Milly, president of the council. It is a pleasure to meet you" she said, getting Kallen a bit out of her surprised stupor as the red haired girl nodded.
"Ah, thank you, the pleasure's all mine" she said, slightly bowing as she noticed the other two she came in with, along with those from the second floor, walked over towards her and Lelouch.
"I'm Rivalz the secretary," a blue haired teen said as he smiled at them "if any of you ever need anything I'm your man" Rivalz added as the orange haired girl stepped forward next.
Naruto had seen this girl before, her sharing some classes with them. She had rather long orange hair that went down to just above her butt with a high D cup chest.
"I'm Shirley, I'm a member of the swim club, welcome everyone" Shirley said as she smiled at them all before the girl between Shirley and Rivalz stepped forward, clearly nervous as she did so.
The girl was rather short with a low A cup chest and black hair done in two braided pigtails. "U-Um, hi there, my name is Nina" she said, her voice quiet and shy, reminding him a bit of Hinata in terms of how she acted.
"I'm Naruto it's nice to meet you all. I hope we get along" Naruto said, giving a fox like smile to everyone, noticing Kallen's confused recognition – since someone would remember the fox like smile of someone who sent a Knightmare flying a bit – as Cecilia hugged his arm with a smile of her own.
"And I'm Mito, I do hope things are interesting here since I'm not fond of boring things" she said before the smell of more pizza pulled her away from him with a smile.
"Shirley? I'm sorry but do you think you can set these on the table for me?" a new soft spoken girl's voice asked as they turned to see a young girl, easily no older than 14 or so, in a wheelchair driving towards them with pizza and sweets on her lap.
Naruto frowned as he took a step back and activated his Rinne-Sharingan, quickly noticing his suspicions to be correct in regards to the girl being under the influence of a Geass from behind her closed eyes.
'Charles, her father, is the culprit' Aurora spoke in his mind, making Naruto frown at the prospect of her own father blinding her for whatever reason. 'You will easily be able to cancel it later but know that he might notice it if he is paying attention' she added as he quickly cancelled his eyes.
"Sure thing, thanks Nunna" Shirley said with a smile as she took the plate and boxes off the girl's lap, Cecilia quickly taking a few slices of pizza, starting to eat one as she put the others on her plate as he joined her.
"Nunnally? What are you doing here?" Lelouch asked, finding himself way out of the loop with things today and blaming it on his situation with Kallen.
"This is Lelouch's sister" Milly introduced as Nunnally smiled towards where she figured they were due to the direction of her brother's voice.
"I'm still in the middle school group so I can't be on the council yet" Nunnally said with a soft smile as Rivalz and Nina walked towards her.
"That's alright, you're an honorary member in our book" Rivalz said while Nina nodded along with a smile before Nunnally smiled.
"Hello everyone, it's a pleasure to meet you three" the wheelchair bound girl said, a sweet smile still on her face as Naruto, along with Kallen and Cecilia, found themselves smiling back at her.
"Thank you, you as well" Kallen said before Rivalz chuckled a bit, grabbing something he hid under the table everyone was gathered around.
"Alright, shall we kick this off with a toast?" he asked as he set a bottle of champagne on the table with a smile.
"Champagne?" Shirley said, shocked and surprised to see Rivalz had brought something like that.
"But we're on the student council, we shouldn't" Nina said as Rivalz waved them off.
"Come on, loosen up you guys! It's not every day we get three new members, two being beautiful ladies and one being a noble!" Rivalz said trying to convince them as he tried to pry the cork out of the bottle so they could celebrate.
"No way! We're going to get in trouble!" Shirley said as she grabbed onto the bottle, trying to grab it out of Rivalz's hands as the boy still tried to open it as Nina covered her ears beside them.
"What's going on?" Nunnally asked, unaware and confused by all the noise as Milly gently put a glass of juice in her hand with a smile, seemingly uncaring about the champagne debacle going on.
"Don't worry about it Nunnally" Milly said as she patted the girl's head, certain that she'd be out of the crossfire if she stayed over here and away from the commotion.
"Lelouch! Heads up!" Rivalz said with a smile, tossing the bottle over to Lelouch who caught it more out of instinct than anything.
"You're not getting away with this either Lulu!" Shirley said, rushing over to Lelouch as she tried to grab the bottle out of his hand.
Lelouch though was more confused what was going on, instinctively keeping it away from her before it resulted in Shirley and him falling down, her on top of him and the cork of the bottle shooting off towards Kallen.
Kallen though wasn't caught off guard and swatted away the cork midair only to flinch as the champagne splashed down on top of her head and continued in a steady stream for a few seconds before dying down.
"What just happened?" Nunnally asked as the silence in the room confused her before Milly sighed.
"Don't worry about it…" Milly said as she, with Shirley's help, got Kallen up to the shower with her dirtied clothes put in the wash while she made Lelouch and Rivalz clean the champagne off the floor
"Mito, can you maybe lend Kallen some clothes of yours for her to wear? I'd offer her Lelouch's but he's a bit too scrawny for her and with another girl here I figure it might be okay" Milly said with a bit of a chuckle while Lelouch rolled his eyes.
"Sure, I don't mind. Naruto, how about you give them to her" Cecilia suggested as Naruto could tell she was enjoying her talk with Milly and the food too much.
"Yeah I don't mind since I do want to make sure she's not too frazzled by the craziness of all this" he teased, making Milly stick her tongue out at him with a giggle.
He rolled his eyes at her with a chuckle, going to head over to the showers before he noticed Lelouch subtly calling him over. "Make sure to answer the phone, you need to so she loses her suspicion of me" Lelouch said as Naruto nodded and waved him off.
"Fine, I'll do it but I'm also going to do my own part" Naruto said, heading out of the room and to the bathroom Kallen had been taken to. Outside the door Naruto conjured up a pair of blue jeans, a loose black long sleeved shirt to cover up but still hide that she was going braless, and a pair of boxers as giving her a pair of panties without knowing her size wouldn't do any good.
Once all the clothes were made he knocked on the door. "It's Naruto, I brought you a change of clothes" he said as he could hear the shower running.
"You can come in, I've drawn the curtain already" Kallen said as he gingerly opened the door, pausing as he saw her silhouette through the curtain.
"Sorry you ended up getting champagne poured on you. Didn't know things happened here at Britannian schools" Naruto said as he walked in and set the clothes in a nearby empty basket.
"It's alright, nothing wrong with cutting loose everyone once in a while but being a noble aren't you use to things like this?" Kallen asked as Naruto smirked a bit, feeling a bit of her anger bubbling inside her which was most likely directed at him due to thinking he was a Britannian noble, someone she was fighting against.
"My status is odd, I'm not really a noble" he said as he leaned against the counter, looking at her silhouette as she took her shower. "These are Mito's clothes by the way, save for the boxers, so I hope they'll fit" he added with a chuckle.
"It's okay, I'm surprised you were able to head all the way to the girl's dorm and make it here so quick" she said making him chuckle again a bit.
"Not really as Mito and I live here, due to circumstances the principal decided to keep us here, neighboring to Lelouch and his sister" he said noticing her head perk up a bit at but still continue showering.
"I see…" Kallen said, undoubtedly trying to wrap her head around the odd info of him living together here with a girl as they both went to school.
"Well, given I don't want to feel like a pervert, I better leave-Wait!" Naruto said, turning to leave, before Kallen called out to him making him pause and turn to see her sticking her hand out from the curtain.
"Can you hand me that pouch over there?" she asked as she pointed to a pink pouch on the counter.
"Sure" Naruto said, knowing the second he picked it up that it hid a blade inside due to the weight of it. "Here you go. Oh and by the way, how was that Sutherland arm? Did it work well for you?" he asked, handing it towards her as he turned his head away before he smirked a bit as she slapped it out of his hand and grabbed his wrist.
"It was you! You're the cloaked figure! I-I want answers!" Kallen said as she stuttered a bit, most likely surprised by him outright admitting it like this.
"First I'm going to need you to look my in the eyes for a second, I just need to look into your eyes I promise my eyes won't venture" Naruto said, feeling her hesitance as he sighed although understanding it entirely. "I'm not going to do anything other than do something to make things easier for you to understand" he added, waiting before she moved her hear to the side, making him smile as their eyes met before he removed the Kotoamatsukami influence on her with a flash of his eyes.
"W-What was that?" she asked, tightening her grip around his wrist as she narrowed her eyes at him.
"Now let me ask you what you think of the name Naruto Uzumaki?" he asked, turning his eyes to the ceiling to make sure she didn't think he was staring as she rose an eyebrow at him like he was stupid.
"Simple it's Japanese" Kallen said before her eyes widened and she looked at him with a confused look on her face. "Wait a second, why didn't I think it was Japanese before now?" she asked as she picked up her pouch and drew the spring loaded knife concealed inside it.
"Simple, you see my eyes?" he asked, looking down and back into her eyes as he pointed to his eyes to show her the design of the Rinne-Sharingan that was active. "They allow me to use illusions, such as making people not recognize I have an incredibly Japanese name and think of me as a Britannian noble" he told her as she only seemed to get more questions in her head.
"How in the hell were you able to carry and attach a Sutherland arm to me in the field like that? How did you send that white Knightmare flying like that? What the hell is up with your eyes? And…why come out and be open about all this to me?" Kallen asked as he smiled gently to her, putting his hand over hers that held the knife and gently lowered it.
"All the answers are basically either, cause I'm strong or because my eyes Kallen. As for the reason why I just went out and told you about it is because I want you to trust me. Look I will explain more in time but," he paused as the phone rang "I believe that is for you" he said before he handed her the phone, making her set down her knife to accept it but still held onto his wrist as she didn't want him to go anywhere.
"Hello?" she asked as she tentatively held the phone up to her ear. "Wait who are you!? How did you arrange that cease fire!? Don't hang up on me!" Kallen yelled after the voice told her to go to Tokyo Tower the day after tomorrow at eight o'clock.
Naruto blushed as due to Kallen turning in anger from her lack of answers she had pulled the curtain open a bit to give him a view of her naked body due to his eyes being drawn to motion. "Yeah sorry about that guy, he tends to like to be cryptic. I'll try and get him to give you some answers when you all meet" he said as he looked away with a blush.
"Do you know who he is?" Kallen asked as she frowned at the phone in her hand, trying to see if it sounded like Lelouch or not.
"Not really as I never met him during Shinjuku, I more fought the Knightmare and worked to get everybody I could out of there but um…you know I can see you right?" he asked as Kallen frowned and looked down at herself, having turned around a bit so now her rather toned yet plump ass was pointed at him.
She froze in shock before she let out a cry as she went to her knees and closed the curtain.
"Look I won't say anything and if you want we can talk later once you are done" Naruto said as he rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment before walking out of the room. Only as he opened the door he frowned as he saw Cecilia listening in with a cup to the door and Milly beside her, both of them smiling innocently up at him.
"So…I hear you saw something~" Milly teased him, making him roll his eyes as thankfully she waited until the door was closed before said that.
"I saw something for a moment before I looked away. Don't tell you both listened in on things?" he asked as Milly pouted.
"Only I did don't worry" Cecilia said making him no longer have to worry about Milly hearing something she wasn't supposed to.
"Well shoo, we don't want her coming out seeing you two and thinking people overheard an embarrassing moment" he said as he motioned them away with his hands making Milly pout as Cecilia kissed him on the cheek with a smirk before they walked off. He sighed once they were gone, leaning against the wall as he waited for her to finish up before she walked out wearing the clothes he had given her.
"Sorry about the boxers but I didn't know if Mito's panties would fit, hence why you don't have a bra either" he said as she smiled but waved him off.
"It's alright, thank you for lending me the clothes. Though I realize Mito is also a Japanese name isn't it?" she asked as Naruto nodded.
"I did the same for her, we are together so it's only right to protect her as well" he said as they started walking down the hall. "Look Kallen a lot about me would take a long time to explain but for now know that I want to help Japan and free it from Britannia. I am somewhat allies of the man who led your group in Shinjuku but at the same time I am independent. I will always do what I feel is best and to protect innocents, even if that means fighting Knightmares barehanded" he told her as he smiled at her, his comment making her chuckle a bit at with a smile of her own.
"While in school we'll just have to be a part of the student council which apparently doesn't require much actual work besides some paperwork they also plan some school events" he said as he remembered a bit of what he had heard from Milly.
"Like cultural festivals I guess, right?" Kallen asked as since they both were new they didn't quite know.
"I have a list of other events that Milly gave me so let's see what we have in store" Naruto said as he pulled out the list from his back pocket. "It turns out they do events such as the…crossdresser's ball, absolute silence party, and swimsuit day? Apparently all Milly's idea" he said with a dry tone and sweat drop as he noticed a dash after all the odd sounding ones with the name 'Milly' next to them.
"What is up with that?" Kallen asked, leaning over a bit to look at the list only to gain a confused look on her face.
"Well…at least it won't be boring" Naruto said, chuckling a bit as he smiled only for her to look up at him and blush before she stepped to the side a bit.
"Sorry again about that…" he apologized as he figured her embarrassment was due to him having seen her naked in the shower.
"It's fine…more my part for jerking the phone line like that…" she said, a blush still on her face as Naruto noticed Cecilia waiting for them against the door frame of the door that led to the main hall.
"So how do the clothes fit?" Cecilia asked with a smile as Kallen smiled back to her.
"They fit perfectly, thank you for lending me them Mito" she said as Cecilia nodded contently.
"Good, though it is a shame those boys ruined all of our welcome party. Thankfully they were punished as Milly had them clean up the mess the entire time you were in the shower" Cecilia pointed out making Kallen perk up a bit.
"So Lelouch never left the entire time I was in the shower?" she asked, making Cecilia raise an eyebrow at but shake her head.
"Not at all, he and Rivalz were on their knees cleaning the entire time while I enjoyed the food while having some fun talks with Milly~" Cecilia said with a smirk before she walked into the main hall with them following behind her.
"Guys its awful!" Shirley said as they walked in, Naruto and Kallen being a bit confused as they all were now standing in front of a flat screen TV with the news on.
"Prince Clovis has been found dead" Milly said as she turned around before Rivalz turned his head towards them.
"They're saying he was killed" Rivalz added, making Naruto look at Lelouch for a second as the boy acted distraught as a good Britannian would before he walked ahead to watch as a press conference came on the screen with someone called Margrave Jeremiah behind the podium.
"Prince Clovis has been taken from us, he fought for peace and justice against all the Elevens. He died a martyr! We must all bury our sorrow and carry on his will" the man said with fury and passion in his eyes that made Naruto immediately know where this was going in terms of how the man planned to get retribution.
"We interrupt this broadcast with breaking news!" a woman newscaster said before the screen turned away from the press conference to the newscaster herself for a moment. "The man suspected to be the murder has been captured. According to this report the suspect is an Honorary Britannian" she said, the screen changing to a brown haired kid the same age as Lelouch more or less was dressed in a white restraining jacket and pulled along by two soldiers with many others following behind and ahead of him.
"Private Suzaku Kururugi a former Eleven and Honorary Britannian. I repeat Suzaku Kururugi arrested for murder" she said as Naruto frowned as the boy was smacked on live television by one of the soldiers escorting him.
Naruto frowned as the mood had dropped considerably with the news of the death and he could feel a lot of worry and anger coming from Lelouch.
"I'm so sorry, we can still continue the party if you all want" Milly said with a frown as she looked at him, Cecilia, and Kallen.
"In wake of the news I think it'll feel a bit sour" Naruto said as the others nodded.
"I'm sorry you guys, we'll make it up to you later. I promise" Milly said with a soft smile, her hand on his chest as he held back a blush from the way she looked in his eyes before he nodded and the group somewhat split up.
As Kallen and Cecilia talked, most likely over the borrowed clothes, Naruto leaned against the wall next to Lelouch. "So, you know the kid on the news?" Naruto asked, the flinch from Lelouch being his answer.
"He…is a childhood friend of mine. I met him when I wound up in Shinjuku and I thought he died protecting me from some soldiers…to think he'd be alive and end up being blamed for my actions" Lelouch said with a tired sigh.
"You want to save him, don't you?" Naruto asked as Lelouch met his eyes and nodded, a look in the boy's eyes showing he was fully serious.
"I refuse to send my friend to death. I planned to get involved with Kallen's group to use them as allies but this could work as a perfect debut and get eyes on me" Lelouch said, rubbing his chin in though before he looked back at him. "You will help me right?" he asked before Naruto nodded and waved him off.
"Yes I will but if you plan to get those resistant fighters to join you then you have to give them a reason to trust you Lelouch. I recommend telling them about Geass" Naruto said, holding in a chuckle as Lelouch gave him a look that was a mix of 'are you crazy?' and as if he suggested telling them he was Britannian royalty.
"I can't tell them that Naruto!" Lelouch said as Naruto shrugged his shoulders.
"Okay but imagine it from their perspective if they ever were to find out. They'd instantly suspect if they have been under its control or not and whatever trust you had goes flying out the window. You can hide your identity but a power like Geass won't benefit you by keeping it secret" Naruto said, hoping the boy would understand his perspective.
"I-I'll think about it" he said making Naruto shrug his shoulders.
"That's all I ask. Let me know where I am needed and I'll be there. Until then I have stuff to work on" Naruto said as he walked over to Cecilia, draping his arm over her shoulder as he smiled at her and Kallen.
"It was really nice to meet you today Naruto, I was just telling Mito goodnight before going over to tell you the same. I may have been out of school for a while but if you need any help with anything around school you can come to me" Kallen said with a smile, subtly giving them a reason to possibly talk more as he smiled back at her.
"Sure, I could use some help I feel as truth be told I've never been the best academically" he said, lying a bit since he had long since overcome his studying problems due to being in a tree and seeing everything around him while in it.
Naruto smiled and waved to her a bit as she walked off before he and Cecilia headed back to his room. "So I see Kallen took things well and seems to want to be an ally" Cecilia said with a smile once they entered their room, reminding him that she had been listening in earlier.
"If you be open with someone you give them a reason to trust you. I helped Kallen in Shinjuku so confessing it was me didn't make her super suspicious and untrusting like how she was with Lelouch. Now I just have to hope Lelouch does good when he meets with them again" he said as they sat down on the couch, Cecilia cuddling up against him with a smile.
"I am curious how things will go with the Lelouch for sure" she said as he rubbed her side.
"So what did you talk with Milly so much about?" he asked as he was a bit worried given the looks on both of the girl's faces when he saw them together.
"That is a secret among maidens now can you maybe get me some ice cream for a late night snack~ If you get some whipped cream we can have some fun~" Cecilia said, Naruto sighing as he knew she wouldn't tell him anything she didn't want to tell him.
"Fine but I really hope it isn't as bad as I feel it might be in my gut" he said with her smile making him feel its just as bad.
"Oh don't worry sweetie, I promise it's good~" she said making him roll his eyes but still get up to get the ice cream.
"You're lucky I love you so much or I'd tell you to stop scheming" he told her, making her giggle as despite the unease about what she might be planning he did love her and wouldn't want her to be any other way.
-Chapter End-
Pairing:
Naruto x CC, Euphemia, Cornelia, Kallen, Milly, Rakshata, and Aurora (Caretaker of Space-Time)
I honestly really like how I handled Rakshata, seeing she'd be completely willing to talk to someone with interesting powers like Naruto and with the gifts he gave her she'd be even more willing to give him what he wants.
As for Tsunadite, fitting given Tsunade gave him the original necklace, will be a powerful energy amplifier/conduit so that Knightmares can have more tech in them without overwhelming their 'engine'. It'll be put in Naruto's Knightmare and the Guren as right now I see it being in the final stages of completion and not fully done yet.
With Kallen I really like how I handled her as well, seeing that if Naruto is outright with her she'll trust him and see him as an ally and friend rather quickly and easily. Plus the shower scene of course still had to happen as it is one of my favorite scenes. Plus a nice start to Kallen's feelings being planted from him being kind and open with him.
Naruto won't get his Knightmare until the Narita Mountains as that will be a perfect debut of it. Trust me when I say it is really really unique, I've never seen it done personally in fics as it isn't modeled after a Gundam or anything like it
Honestly I removed Suzaku's pairing because I kind of (well not kind of) realized Suzaku is a real crap character sadly. He works for the country that enslaved his people, defends them when they kill innocents, major hypocrite overall, and thinks he as a Honorary Britannian can change a nation who sees Numbers and Honorary Britannians as less than people just by becoming a Knight and hoping to one day be given control of Area 11 when in normal circumstances in a nation like Britannia they'd never allow something like that as Britannia is a nation who sees pure blood as the only kind with the right to rule.
I'm probably going to go Six Paths of Rebellion route and make him a major antagonist as he and Naruto will clash a lot as while Naruto has the uncanny skill of turning enemies good he also knows who are beyond saving while Suzaku is a bit naïve overall. I really don't want to bash him super hard but he is definitely an antagonist and a big one that will clash with Naruto a lot.
Plus neither he nor Lelouch are really the kind of character to have a pairing, especially in a setting of Code Geass and all. As for Shirley and Cecile, I'll think about what to do with them in terms of pairing.
Might give them to Naruto as I have solid ideas to make them both work I feel so we shall see how it goes in terms of actually writing the story and whatnot
I hope you all liked it
Rate and Review!
Buh-Bye!
