CHAPTER 7 9th FOX
Start off in a desolate city that is falling apart and naruto is laying in the prone wearing a gillie suite on the second story of a broken down building with a sniper rifle watching a mass of covenant brutes grunts and jackels a click and a half away around a bunch of what looked like purple and blue buildings that they had set up looking like they were waiting for something
"Fox den, fox den this pup 1 you reading me?" naruto's voice came in over the radio
"pup 1 this is fox den I got you Lima Charlie. Hows it going out there?" Came over his radio
"cold as fuck me and pup 2 are freezing our balls off out here" naruto said over the radio
"well why don't you two huddle for warmth then? What happens in the field stays in the field right? Hehe" fox den responded with a chuckle
"you sick son of a bitch we don't swing that way and at least you finally came out of the closet and admitted you have homo thoughts of other marines together, Queer bait, and pup 2 isn't my type any way" naruto comes back with as he scans over with his scope to check on pup 2 and sees a lump of what looks like rubble but with a better look he could see his second man, who replies with
"well pup 1 even if I were your type I wouldn't cause I am already taken by the prettiest girl back home but fox den I might make an exception for you though." Pup 2 came over the radio
"when the fuck did you get a girlfriend?" Naruto asked
"dude I got a pic of her of her over my rack back at base." Pup 2 said
"you mean Sara Glen? The teenage pop star?" Naruto asked
"yep she's the one, am gona marry her when this war is over." Pup 2 said
"dude that don't count you've never met her, and I doubt she would even give a grunt like you the time of day, besides aint she like fifteen or something?" Naruto asked
"so I am only seventeen so its still legal." Pup 2 argues defensivly
"still don't count bro" Naruto says teasingly
"fine whatever you say, but hay fox den what you say." Pup 2 says brushing him off
"haha maybe once you get back in one piece I will let you buy me some dinner at the chowhall." Fox den calls with a chuckle
"it's a date then hehe" Pup 2 replies
"what and you two leave me out here in the cold to do all this work myself, I see how it is" naruto complains
"oh I think we hurt his feelings fine we'll make it a three way haha" Fox den laughs
"well I don't want your pity gang bang any way, cum dumpsters" Naruto says
"what the hell you talking about, you do all the work, stop staring at my ass and focus one the covies" Pup 2 complains
"fine their prettier any way" Naruto teases
then rougher older sounding voice comes over the radio "well if you guys are done taking out you sexual frustration on each other I need a sitrep on those pretty little covies your thinking about fucking pup 1."
"uh yes sir they are all just massing around that purple plateform that they set up yesterday looks like they are waiting for something, or maybe someone." Naruto explains
"well just don't get distracted by jerking each other off out there and let us know if anything changes, and you're all a bunch of, butt fucking fagots" Fox den finishes
"roger that sir" Naruto says and they hear his radio cut out
"dude we been sitting out here for 2 fucking days and they have just been lounging around I don't think they are doing anything" Pup 2 complains over their internal com
"shit you spoke a bit too soon we got a phantom in bound with 4 banshee escorts." Naruto calls
"lot of security for just one drop ship you think that is what we have been waiting for?" Pup 2 points out
"probably send this up to fox den" naruto says
"fox den pup 1 we got activity drop ship with escorts just arrived." Naruto calls to Fox den
"roger keep eyes on and let us know what is going on" Fox den advises
"roger" Naruto says
Naruto continues to watch as the phantom sets down and its doors open and 6 giant elites in red and yellow armor with fancy head pieces carrying banners and spears walk down the ramp and a prophet follows behind.
"what the hell never seen that armor before or that thing floating behind them. Have you?" Pup 2 asks
"no I haven't fox den I got some elites in fancy armor and a floating slug. what am I look at here sir?" Naruto asks fox den
"sounds like a prophet they are high ranking religious Icons higher believes." Fox den explains
"I got a clear shot you want me to take it." Naruto says
"negative don't compromise your position." Fox den orders
"roger holding fire" Naruto confirms "I gotta bad feeling about this thing I should take it down." He thinks to himself as he has his cross hairs on its head as it goes into a building. "damn lost sight of him you got eyes on pup 2?" he asks
"negative, wait I got him he is on the top of that big ass blue building" Pup 2 says
"yeah I got him, sir you reading me I got a clear shot now request to take down target?" Naruto says
"what is he doing?" Fox den asks
"looks like he is getting ready to giving a speech or something please sir I really got a bad feeling about this one we need to take this one out." Naruto explains
"very well take the shot" Fox den says
As naruto gets the prophet in his cross hairs waiting to take the shot when he notices a pillar coming out of the floor behind the prophet and he catches the a weird sparkle of light at the side of the platform
"shit, hey pup 2 hold fire" Naruto says
"what? Why?" Pup 2 asks confused
"sir that is a negative on the target he has a shield around the platform." Naruto explains
"well you might not be able to take the shot but you can record the speech you bring that sound amplify recorder?" Fox den asks
"yes sir shit never thought I would ever us this hopefully I brought the batteries… ok got it set." Naruto says
"alright after you finish recording get back so we can get that Intel to higher." Fox den orders
"don't have to tell me twice to R.T.B. (return to base) having hot chow tonight." Naruto says excitedly
"just remember it took us a day and a half to get out here it will take longer getting back especially if these damn brutes start patrolling again." Pup 2 reminds him
"why gotta be the downer man it's not cool, and I think this thing is busted I can't hear a damn thing" naruto complains
"hey just trying to get you focused man" Pup 2 tells him
"I'm focused" naruto says defensively
"oh really you do know that thing works better when you plug the head phones in right?" Pup 2 jokes
"of course I know that it works bet.." naruto begins then looks down and the headphone jack is unplugged "just shut the fuck up."
"haha dude really? your such an idiot haha." Pup 2 laughs
"ok fine I am gona do some espionage shit so I am shutting you off of my radio." Naruto tells him
"dude come on, your such a baby back…" CLICK naruto hears Pup 2 as he shuts off his radio
"well now let's see what the good ol prophet is up to" Naruto says to himself as he plugs the head phones in and he aims it at the prophet and looks through his scope and hears him say
"and with this pillar of light passed down to us from the gods we shall cleanse this planet of the wretched humans who stand in the way of our great journey" he watches as the prophet raises an orange crystal over his head and places it in the side of the pillar and it starts to glow blue.
"what the fuck" naruto says to himself as it starts to pulsate faster and faster "shit" he flicks his radio back on
"dude are you listening" Pup 2 yells into the radio
"yeah I am here…" Naruto says franticly
"are you seeing this shit what the hell is…" Pup2 asks bewildered
"it's some sort of bomb its gona blow, fox den you get that it's a bomb they are gona att…" Naruto yells into the radio but gets cut off by static over his radio
"SHIT KONAHAMORU YOU STILL THERE?!" Naruto yells into the radio but gets nothing but static
Naruto hears a distant voice "with this power we shall destroy the humans from this" he looks down to see the head phone and puts it in his ear and then looks throw his scope and watches the prophet raising his hands and the light pulsing faster and faster than one big flash and feels his scope and recorder blow up in his hand and face and a bolt of electricity shoot through his head from the headphone
"AAAAAHHHH." Naruto yells as he rips the head phone from his ear then the earth started to shake and the floor below him gave in and everything went black.
All Naruto could see was black but he hears something off in the distance. "blarp?"
"huh who's there?" Naruto asks
"blarp blarp honk honk." Says the mysterious voice
"what, what the hell happened why cant I move?" Naruto asks
"blarp honk"
"what the hell does blarp mean" Naruto asks
"blarp"
"does it mean yes?" naruto asked
"blarp"
"it does" naruto says with excitement
"blarp"
"or does it mean no?" naruto asked with defeat
"honk"
"WHAT DOES BLARP MEAN?!" naruto yells into the darkness
"naruto you down there!" a voice in the distance called out
"what who is that?!" Naruto asked
"who else its Konohamaru don't worry I will get you out i am almost to you"the voice says as a rock is pulled away from Narutos face and he can see day light and the silo wet of a marine wearing a boonie and ghilli suit, then Konohamoru's face comes in to focus
"dude what the hell happened?" naruto asked
"I have no fucking clue that pillar was pulseing the radios went out, then the ground started to shake and that building I was next to came down ontop of me took 3 hours to dig myself out then another 2 to dig you out my radio was crushed but yours seems undamaged but won't work for some reason." Konohamaru explained as he finished digging naruto out and helps him up
"where's your rifle?" Naruto asked
"buried under that damn building and bet bent in half by a slate of concrete, better it then me right." Konohamaru jokes
"where is my gear?" Naruto asks looking around and sees a pack on the ground half buried with a barrel next to it "there it is" he says as he gets up to get it but winces in pain and sits back down.
"shit I think my leg is broken." Naruto says with a lot of pain in his voice
"I'll grab it" Konohamaru says as he runs over to the rifle and bag and digs them out and brings them over the rifle looked ok but when he brought it up to look through the scope there was no picture
"shit that must have been one hell of an EMP, for it to have knocked out my optic, that's probably why the radios don't work." Naruto explains
"but isn't our stuff protected from that shit?" Konohamaru asked
"maybe since we were so close it wasn't enough but any way we gotta head back over to base, where are the covenant?" naruto asks
"gone I came out of the rubble and they were gone the entire army" Konohamaru says
"well I guess we can get some luck once in a while right." Naruto says with a smirk as he reaches in to his pack and pulls out an extra scope "here throw that on there make sure it's on the rail closest to the buttstock"
"what the hell, this is old school." Konohamaru tells him not really beliving what he had in his hand
"well I always bring an extra one of those, just in case the battery dies in mine." Naruto says
"whatever man only you would bring an antique optic to an alien war zone." Konohamaru jokes
"just mount it and get ready I need to splint this and find a crutch" Naruto said as he looked around while pulling out a splint from his pack he sees a pipe about the right height splints his leg and grabs the pipe and pulls out the SMG and mags from his pack, hands the pack to Konohamaru and says "alright lets get going" and they set off for base."
After about a day and a half of hiking they finally made it to the last ridge and as they cross it the look down on what was left of their base.
It was just smoldering fires and ash "shit they must of hit this place as soon as the EMP hit them and they had no idea it was coming." Naruto said with a pang of guilt throbbing though his mind
"I should of taken that shot I would of stopped this from happening if I took him down when I had the chance." Naruto says to himself as he looks down on the camp.
"well let's see what we can salvage and if we can find some sort of evac out of here." Konohamaru says as he starts to head down the hill with naruto limping while leaning on his shoulder.
As they enter the camp naruto yells 'aaaahhhh' and grabs his head as he feels the pulsing of electricity run through his head and hears "shan shu shunder shands sh-e sh-ow?"
"what the hell who are you" naruto yells
"are you ok bro? your acting weird man, well weirder than normal, the only ones here are you and me" Konohamaru tells him
Naruto just looks off into space then refocuses on Konohamaru "yeah I am fine, lets see about that evac." Naruto says as he shacks his head
"you know what how bout you stay here and rest a bit first, while I go look for some way to get us out of here you did have a building come down on your head and then walk for a day and a half you need to sit down for a while." Konohamaru says with some concern in his voice
"your right just over doing it I guess, yeah I will sit down, you go find some way to get us out of here, oh and here leave the rifle and take this" Naruto says as he hands him the SMG "that rifle isn't gona do any good in these close quarters."
"well what if there are some still around and you need it?" Konohamaru asks
"don't be such a boot, you honestly think I am not prepared." Naruto says as he reaches behind his back and pulls out his stockless shotgun and does a brass check, and looks at Konohamaru with a foxish smile.
"only you would have 3 guns on him for one mission." Konohamaru chuckles with a smile
"no I got four" Naruto says as he points as his pistol on his hip "now go find a way to get us out of here"
"whatever man is that scatter gun even authorized?" Konohamaru says as he turns and trots down the side of a blown out tank.
"does it matter we're killing aliens." Naruto calls out to him as he watches him run off
"cute kid." Came the voice from before again
Naruto looks over at a broken down tank and sees a big ass orange fox laying on its track
"who the hell are you?" Naruto says as he raises his shotgun.
"wait don't shoot you can see and understand me now?" the giant fox says with a somewhat surprised but happy look on his face
"yeah just who are you?" Naruto asks as he feels a wave of dizziness wash over him as he stands up to get a better angle on the fox.
"your new best friend." The fox says with a grin
"what?" naruto asks while forcing himself to stay standing
"but just hold on sit down before you pas…" the fox began but everything goes black again and the voice just fades into the darkness "fuck not again"
"AHHHHH" naruto sits up in his bed when he wakes up gasping and 'THUNK' and he feels a sharp pain in his head
"OH DAMNT THAT FUCKING HURTS" Naruto yells out loud
"well I would think you would have learned not to sit up so fast anymore after how many times you have done that already." Sasuke says as he walks out of the bathroom with a tooth brush in his mouth "bad dream?" he asks
"yeah" Naruto replies
"proxy?" Sasuke asks
"yep" Naruto confirms
"wanta tal…" Sasuke began but got cut off
"if I wanted to talk about it I would of by now." Naruto snaps at his squad mate
"ok but hey we should be at Reach by the end of the day so get ready and packed we are getting shuttled over as soon as we get there." Sasuke tells him
"alright" Naruto says as he jumps off his bunk and gets ready and thinks to himself "who the hell was that fox? first time he's been in that dream."
END OF CHAPTER 7
Please review I had to get the story of proxy and the introduction of the fox out of the way some time and this is the best time to do it before everything kicks off.
