I don't own Naruto or Star Wars this is a fan fiction only. Edited by Mandalore the Freedom.
Turns out finding the Imperial makeshift base was not that hard at all. The only thing the damn thing was missing was an Imperial flag so they actually spray painted the emblem on the outside. If this was not an invitation it was sure close enough.
Naruto and Jorgan blasted their way in, fighting through any Imperial Soldiers in their way, luckily they got them by surprised, so it was rather easy. They then ound a Sith warrior and he looked like he won the lottery. "Well I hope you put your affairs in order because this here armor can only be cut by a light Saber and since you guys are grunts you're as good as dead."
That was when Naruto remembered the gift he was sent by his old friend. He made twenty shadow Clones which shocked the poor dumb Sith scum and then each of them pulled something from their belts and turned them each on.
If the situation was any funnier, he was sure he was expecting that someone told him this was a practical joke. Since nobody did and he saw all those light sabers the only thing he was thinking was that he just had to tell them what to use to cut him up like a turkey.
The remains of the Sith looked like ground meat, cooked ground meat when Naruto was done with him. "Have I told you how happy I am that you are on my side?" Jorgan asked and he told him he actually never did.
As they began looking through the computer data he did tell him how lucky he felt he was in his side. "Which reminds me, how come you know how to use a light Saber?" Naruto told him as he looked at a wall, that it was a sword. He has been using them for years so it shouldn't come as such surprise.
His eyes activated and he pulled the panel of the wall revealing a Imperial Officer, a older man within his 50s, wearing the typical Imperial uniform, he also had a look that made Naruto distrust him, the officer place his arms in the air. "Alright you caught me. Here let's make a deal. I will tell you everything about Needles and you let me go. How does that sound?"
Jorgan had to ask how he knew they were looking for Needles? The Imp told him they were wearing Havoc colors and were looking at data from their servers, it didn't take a genius to put two and two together.
Just as he finished telling them a communication link was established with Naruto's ear piece. "Don't trust him Lieutenant. The man is a scumbag that to compared to him Hutts run homeless shelters and give most of their money to charity."
He put the transition on the holoprojector so everyone could hear the conversation. "His name is Thorus, he is a war criminal." Thorus could not believe his bad luck. The person who ultimately caused him to be demoted to his current rank was right there on the projector.
"Elara Dorne why couldn't you do me a favor and drop dead already? I had hoped a rakghoul pack screwed you to death or at least had you for a snack."
Naruto could see she was as happy to see him as he was to see her. "So tell me Elara what did this guy do to be a war criminal." Thorus didn't like where this was going.
"He killed innocent civilians, many against direct orders from Imperial High Command."
Thorus had to buy his freedom and he had to do so now, at least before Elara told Naruto how he made order the death of a Twi'lek refuge camp just because they were aliens, Thorus attempted to reason with Naruto. "Rakghouls, Needles is studying Rakghouls. He is trying to turn the disease into a weapon. His friends are delivering Rakghouls and Republic Soldiers to a way station a few hundred meters for here. I am telling you everything. Now you must keep your end of the deal."
Naruto looked at the projection of Elara. "Well Sergeant, what do you think I should do?" She didn't waste a second to tell him he should take out his blaster and blow his head off. Naruto had a different idea and he was sure that Jorgan and Elara would love it.
"I have a better idea." He used the Transformation Technique to become Darth Malgus, shocking everyone within the room, Naruto then imitating his voice he spoke. "For crimes against Imperial orders I find you guilty of high treason against the Emperor and the Sith Empire. Your punishment shall be death. Die like the dishonorable worm you are." He flicked his wrist and broke Thorus head clean off.
He changed back and made sure that was the only recording left on the base computers. "Bravo, what a performance, all I was missing was some popcorn." Jorgan said as Naruto changed back to his normal form. Elara was applauding as he changed back.
"Now we got to visit the way station and pay Needles a visit. I don't know which is worse, that Needles is making a weaponized version of the Rakghoul plague or the fact that his friends are helping him. He didn't seem that friendly to me when I met him."
Jorgan had to say that there was only one way to find out. He and Jorgan continued to walk through the Taris wilderness and while sending more shadow Clones to continue the side missions along the way.
The two then finally found from what looked like a old base, they through Imperials and Rakghouls, making sure keep good distance away from Rakghouls, forcing Naruto to use Shadow Clones and other jutsu techniques. His Clones told him he pretty much finished every side mission currently available within the area, but they did make sure note about a small alliance one of the clones made with a Mandalorian name Duran Gorr, Jorgan did not seem very happy about that. As the two walked in a room, however they quickly took cover, to see what was going on.
Naruto could make out three figures within the room, one of them was Needles who was now wearing an Imperial uniform, there was another Imperial, a dark skin soldier, the next drew Naruto's main attention, it was somekind of Rakghoul but it looked lot different, it was standing tall like a humanoid and was even wearing armor. Needles then brought a needle that had odd green liquid in it.
"Ah, thank you Ensign Sarven on you're brave sacrifice, I'll be to never forget you." before the soldier knew it, Needles shot the needle inside him, Naruto and Jorgan could only look on in horror as the poor soldier screamed in pain as he changed into a Rakghoul, the armor ripped apart as his body changed. Naruto may have seen horrible things in his life, but that just made onto his top ten list. Needles smile at the sight.
"Ah very good, I will be needing more Rakghouls for my tests Vorzoth." the Rakghoul humanoid looked upset and surprised Naruto and Jorgan when it spoke. "I already gave you enough Rakghouls as you asked for, when will you keep you're end of the deal." it's voice was raspy, barely humanoid like. Needles didn't seem bother by the voice. "When the weapon is completed, with it, we will destroy the Republic base." however then Vorzoth turned to where Naruto and Jorgan where at.
"I smell an intruder." Vorzoth brought out a nasty looking viresword, it even had a person's skull on it. Naruto and Jorgan stepped out to the open, Needles smiled at the sight of Naruto.
"Ah Sergeant, nice to see you still alive and came to visit how nice. Excuse me, It's seems you got a major promotion congratulations Lieutenant, I am sure Commander Tavis is actually very glad that you achieved a higher rank so fast. You sure made our squad proud." however then Needles gave a scowl at Jorgan. "But I must question the company you keep, bringing that worm all the way from Ord Mantell just to die." Jorgan glared at Needles, resting his hand on his blaster.
Naruto tried to look as friendly as possible, seeing he just saw Needles turn an imperial into a nekghoul, that was not so easy.
"Needles, Kardan told me to give you a chance to surrender and come back to the Republic. Now what are the chances of you listening to reason and surrendering?" Needles shook his head. "Sorry Sergeant, but you came at a bad time, I needed some more subjects for the new weapon I have been building, now with you here, I just can't stop myself." Jorgan and Naruto did not like the sound of that.
"OK, Needles I hope you are wearing your dancing shoes." He made twelve shadow Clones and smiled at the shocked look on Needles' face. "Let's dance." the clones moved in fast, surprising Needles and Vorzoth, however Needles proven be a good shot as he was able shoot 3 of the clones before he was force to roll away, Vorzoth grabbed one of the clones and made it disappeared before he sliced one of the clones with his viresword.
However then Naruto stepped in, he brought out his lightsaber, Vorzoth attempted charge at him but Naruto jumped in the air, sliced his neck right open, blood leaked out as Vorzoth slowly died there. Needles shot his blaster at the clones, dodging from attacks from them, however just as he finished the last clone, Jorgan used the smoke to suddenly appear, gave a nasty punch to the face, Needles's head pull back, blood leaked out.
Jorgan then side kicked him in face, knocking Needles right out. Naruto nodded to Jorgan, they tiled up Needles and ready him be transport to the Republic base, after that, Naruto and Jorgan decide look around the lab for anything useful.
"Well that felt good." Jorgan said as he watched Naruto walk over to the console containing the weaponized version of the rakghoul plague, he never did liked Needles, he always gave him the creeps.
"So Jorgan what do you think we should do with this stuff? Personally I want to wake him up and inject him with it. Sort of left him have a taste of his own medicine but on the other hand Rakghoul cyborg is not going to make his prison stay that easy or beneficial for the poor sobs that have to guard him. So what is your opinion destroy or salvage?
Jorgan said if the rakghoul plague can be weaponized then using the same means to create a weaponized version of the cure would be easier with a sample. That and General Garza would love to have a souvenir from this ordeal. Naruto decided to take a sample and destroy the rest. No reason to leave the rest of it for some greedy and stupid pirate to try and use it later.
The two left the base, however just as they out in exit, they were surprised when standing front of the base, were couple dozen Mandalorians in both gray and blue armor, all armed to the teeth. "Oh shit!" cursed Jorgan as he brings out his blaster rifle, he always hated Mandalorians, for what they did to his homeworld during Mandalorian Wars, however he was surprised when Naruto stops him. "Naruto, what are you-" Naruto stops him, he points to one Mandalorian making his way towards them, Jorgan put away his rifle but still kept a firm grip on it.
The Mandalorian walking towards was very tall, taller then Naruto, he wore gray Mandalorian armor, his helmet off showing he was human with pale skin, wearing what looked like bone like tattoos on his face, his brown hair was in braids tiled in pony tail, his sharp green eyes looked at Naruto. Naruto didn't know why, but he got a impression that was lot like Zabuza, he stops front of them.
"So you're the real Naruto Uzumaki you're clone told me about, I heard great deal about ya." Naruto raise a brow, he was aware one of his clones made somekind of deal with him but he wasn't sure what it was, the memories didn't flow back to him for some reason. "Oh, like what?" Duran grinned.
"Heard lot of tales about you're work in Ord Mantell, destroying Sep bases and forces, destroying Imperial soldiers, completing missions that no one thought possible, I must admit, you have my respect if you're clone could defeat my men without killing them." he placed his hands behind his back. "But that's what am here for, am here regarding a deal you're clone told me about." Jorgan wasn't sure about this, so far Duran Gorr seem be typical violent Mandalorian in his eyes.
Jorgan decide butt in. "Oh, and what's that buckethead." several of the Mandalorians gave a scowl at Jorgan's direction, but Duran Gorr acted like nothing happened, though Naruto gave a hand sign that said 'don't make this come in blood bath' Naruto wanted know what was it his clone did here. "And that deal is?" Duran grinned. "You're clone promised me challenge and a worthy fight, the blasted Imperials are keep giving my people unworthy challenges, taking down civilians, refuges." Duran spited on the ground there.
"They want me and my men do coward's work, give me a challenge and I'll take it down, but giving me missions involving attacking civilians? pass." Jorgan raise a brow, since when Mandalorians question blood lust. "Since when you Mandalorians had a problem killing civilians." Naruto was curious himself, a lot he heard about Mandalorians suggested they were savages, Duran scowled.
"Because we Mandalorians seek improve ourselves against enemies that make us push ourselves, killing people who are unarmed is more for the cowards who like pick the weak. The work done on you're homeworld by Cassus Fett was a mistake made a zealot, that is all I will say. Back the matter in hand, I was hoping you would have something better in mind then Imperials tend give me." Naruto was starting see lot of Zabuza in this guy, something tells him that the two would get along.
"Very well Duran Gorr, if I need help with anything, I'll be sure call on you and you're men, but won't this cause problems for Mandalore?" Naruto thought about the alliance Mandalorians and Imperials have, Duran shook his head. "No, Mandalore encourages us to fight we willed, longest we maintain our honor and our traditions, we'll good for whatever side we fight, besides, I wouldn't collecting some Sith trophies." he patted a lightsaber he held on his waist.
Jorgan was surprised, this man has fought Jedi before? Naruto decide let that go for now, he might bring that matter the next time they met. Duran nodded. "Till the next time we meet, Ret'urcye mhi." he spoke in Mando'a, he and his men soon left the area, getting on speeder bikes before riding out of the area. Jorgan couldn't help but make be cornered about here. "Lieutenant, are we sure we can trust that man? his a Mandalorian, they tend be very violent." of course this is his point of view, Naruto decide keep a open mind here. "Let's give him an chance, if he wishes fight against the Empire, then who are we denial his request, anyway let's get going." the two made their way out of the area.
They stopped to nearby outpost to get back to Command Center, taking a speeder bike back.
As the two made it back to the Command Center, Naruto saw the colonel had a change of heart it seems. His Clones finishing all those side chores it seems really made his day and was a whole lot happier for it.
"Good work, Lieutenant. In my opinion, war criminals should not get a second chance. I have secured and treated your captive and have sent the appropriate forms for his transfer and subsequent court martial. General Garza has expressed that she wished to hear your report as soon as you arrived. Holo communicator have been established and secure you may use the terminal in the back. Again congratulations on your fine work." Naruto and Jorgan nodded to him and went over to where the holoterminal was at.
Naruto and Jorgan walked to the Holoterminal. "General Garza, target was captured and waiting in hold for transfer. Mission Accomplished on the lovely planet of Taris. Maybe next time we can get a nice peaceful mission maybe on Nar Shadda." Jorgan was heard saying next to him to be careful what he wished for. General Garza nodded, very happy of the news.
"Good work Lieutenant, some had second thoughts of me allowing you to head the squad. These suspicions and accusations have stopped with your results on Taris. Kardan will be happy you kept your word and got Needles into custody without needing to kill him. So tell me Naruto what do you think of Sergeant Dorne?"
Naruto briefly looked over his shoulder to see her hard at work. "Is this my personal or professional opinion, Ma'am?" Garza laughed and said she wanted to hear both.
"Professional opinion, she is hard working, dedicated and knows her regs better than most lawyers. Personally she is strong, focused, driven and hides a particularly sweet personality behind that frosty exterior. If this was under different circumstances I would be trying to win her heart till she was my wife and afterwards too. She had looks that are rare to find in uniform." Jorgan coughed, he had admit, he agreed with Naruto, not that he would state it.
Garza could not help but to glare at him. "Naruto, I might not be a radiant beauty now, but I will have you know I too was much like that when I was her age." Jorgan was heard commenting if that was before or after the foundation of the Galactic Republic, but General Garza heard him and gave him a nasty glare that made stood attention.
"Lieutenant, I would advise make sure you're Sergeant's mouth shut while in briefing. Also I would very much like if you have him clean toilets for a week or two. I want Sergeant Dorne in Havoc, she has the right skill and mind set for the job. You may tell her yourself that her transfer is immediate as soon as she accepts."
The communication channel was closed, Jorgan was not very happy about this. "Great, just my luck, next time, remind me wear my helmet." Naruto laughed as he walked over to where Sergeant Dorne was at. "Was there anything else you needed Lieutenant?" Elara trying to remain as professional as ever it seem, but she was having bit of a hard time as she looked in Naruto's eyes, almost losing herself in them.
"Sergeant Elara Dorne, you are here invited to join Havoc Squad. Your transfer to my unit will be immediate as soon as you accept. You will be our new medic should you agree as per General Garza's orders."
This took her by surprise and she could not hide the feeling of joy as she said yes she would accept. "It will be an honor to work with you Lieutenant. I will sing and transfer all my gear as per regulations and shall meet you both on board the ship."
Colonel Graff actually thanked him for all the good he had done for the planet and for his men. On a personal note he also thanked him from getting Elara out of the planet. In his opinion, he could now relax without the Imp in his command. Naruto gave him a strong punch to the gut and told him he was welcomed.
Colonel Gaff bend over, trying get his breathing again. "The hell was that for?!" The Colonel then notice he was he didn't feel that a nagging pain he was having lately. "Just realigned some of the bones in your vertebrae. Your pain should be lot less than it was before. Like I said you are welcome." the Colonel nodded, thankful but asked him if next time, did it less painful.
Naruto and Jorgan soon made their way back to their ship, meeting their new recruit along the way, now wearing green and white Republic trooper armor, they went into the ship and turned on the holonet.
General Garza was happy to report that the prisoner transfer had been completed and she asked if there was anything else he avoided telling her before. "As per security concerns I omitted reporting that we also secured a sample of the weaponized Rakghoul virus that Needles made. It is believed by myself and Jorgan that it can be used to make the delivery of a cure easier and faster. I am also including a sample of a new updated vaccine developed on Taris."
"Good work as expected Naruto. I am also happy to tell you that you are in luck your unit has been given a brief vacation leave due to the stress of working so much on Taris. Officially you are going to get a lovely vacation on Nar Shadda, unofficially you are to see to the retrieval of an experimental war Droid being developed under Tavis's Orders. We can't allow this dangerous droid to fall into his hands."
Naruto placed both vials in the compartment for secure transfer, he nodded to General Garza and turned off the holonet. Naruto then walked over to the now smiling Cathar who was trying hard not to laugh.
"I get it, I get it. I got my wish. Be careful of what you wish your and I told you so. So Jorgan in lie to you secretly laughing your furry ass off at my expense you are on toilet cleaning duty for the next to months. You better get to it."
That pretty much made his stop laughing alright. He went to get the toilet brush but Naruto stopped him and instead gave him a new toothbrush. This was not want he expected and with a huff went to clean the toilets with the new toothbrush. Good thing he kept his toothbrush secured as Naruto felt as he saw Jorgan glaring at him.
He walked over to the new member of the squad and she seemed to have finished packing her things. "It seems we will officially have a vacation, a paid vacation on Nar Shaddas. So Sergeant Dorne or if you permit Elara would you like to see the sights with me?" this caught her by surprise but it seems in a pleasant sort of a way.
"So unofficially we well be conducting an operation on the smuggler's moon. Ready and able to proceed with the mission, sir. Unofficially it will be fun. It has been a whole while since I went out on a date. I am actually looking forward to it."
Jorgan kept cleaning the toilet and kept saying under his breath to be careful what he wished for. As he was shaking his head and finished cleaning the first stall. Only five stalls left for the day.
The ship soon reached to Nar Shaddaa, the planet could be categorized as one massive casino city. If someone had the money there were practically no limit on the recreational options available to them. The new option for covert operations in their armor was actually quite nice and Naruto swore to himself that if Eleara dressed in a tight miniskirt with thigh high boots, his first stop would be the nearest bar so he can get stinking drunk.
That would be the only way he could excuse himself later for coping a feel and blatantly kissing her cheeks, lips and that ever sensitive spot on her neck. The other things that also surprised him is that. He barely spent a day with her near and he was already thinking of doing some very pleasurable things with her. He began to wonder when did he become such a pervert.
He could almost see Jiraya saying, "He is not a pervert, he is a SUPER PERVERT!" shaking these thoughts out of his mind, he walked towards the outer airlock to find that she was dressed very conservatively in a nice pant, blouse and vest outfit. He was dressed in his usual pants and shirt with boots and some nice black gloves.
"It is amazing how much the armor emitters can change the look of the armor depending on which mode you set it too." then Elara noticed Naruto was not saying anything. "Something the matter Naruto? Don't you have something to say to me?"
Naruto at that moment his brain finally rebooted. "That blouse really highlights the color of your eyes and you look quite lovely." Elara had to give him credit, he didn't go for the obvious gutter comment even though she could feel his eyes checking her body a few times already.
"Why the black gloves though Naruto?" Naruto just told him he wanted to keep his hands clean. She could not help but laughing at this answer. The two disembarked and went to check out the sights and of course collect some local Intel. The only place to do that was of course a local bar.
As soon as they walked arms linked into the cantina a man shouted to get there attention. "NARUTO, ELARA HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN? YOU OF COURSE REMEMBER YOUR OLD PAL SPINNET!"
Naruto knew where this was going as he remembered being taught code name designations for the Republic SIS during his special forces training. "Spinnet, you are looking well. We are doing fine you know, family growing bigger kids getting into trouble. It is a miracle me and my beloved wife aren't bald from all the trouble our kids get us in with their toys." Elara blushed right there, knowing Naruto met her.
Elara Dorne was beginning believe things were gonna be interesting with Naruto around...
