Naruto slowly opened his eyes and started to slowly sit up. "Why do I feel like I been hit by an IS head on without any protection." He stated as he looked around. He found himself in a white room that smelled of disinfectant.
He started to remove the covers from his body when a Tsunade walked in. "Don't think about it brat." She ordered as she quickly walked over and forced Naruto to lie back down. "You need to rest."
Naruto frowned and tried to get out of the bed, "I'm fine," he said with annoyance in his voice. "I don't need to be here."
Tsunade pushed him down onto the bed and glared directly into his eyes, "You are to stay in bed," she stated coldly. Naruto quickly nodded in agreement knowing full well that Tsunade only have that look when she was being completely serious. "Now hold still I need to do a check up."
Naruto lay there silently as Tsunade went through his check up. He wondered how he ended up in the hospital bed in the first place. The last thing he remembered was finishing the GN drive for Blue Tears and closing his eyes for a short rest. Next thing he knew he was laying on the hospital bed.
Naruto turned and looked at Tsunade as she finished his check up, "Hey Baa-Chan how did I end up here?" he asked her. "The last thing I remember is finishing the GN drive for Blue Tears."
Tsunade looked at her grandson, "You were found passed out in your lab," she replied with a frown. "You passed out due to overworking yourself."
Naruto nodded as he looked up at the ceiling, "So that what happened." He replied with clarity. "So what now?"
Tsunade smiled, "You will be able to go home later today, but you need to take it easy on work. You won't be able to work for the next three days." She said.
"WHAT!" Naruto shouted in anger, "What do you mean I can't work! I have things to finish, the Freedom need to be finished along with the Justice and the upgrades to the Blue Tears."
Tsunade pulled Naruto into a choke hold and squeezed, "I said no work I mean no work." She stated as she tightened her hold, "Or I will make sure you can't work."Naruto struggled for air and quickly tapped on Tsunade arm in submission. Tsunade just smiled and let go of the Naruto.
"Are you trying to kill me?" he asked her as breathed as much air into his lungs.
"I would never kill you," Tsunade replied as she looked over his charts, "I would just beat you within an inch of your life."
"I fine with that but you will be the one to nurse him back to health," a voice said from the door. Tsunade and Naruto turned, seeing Kushina standing there.
"Mom," Naruto stated with a hint of annoyance.
"You know I love you," Kushina stated as she walked in. "But I have to agree with Tsunade. No work for you. It is our fault you over worked yourself and I don't want it to happen again.
"But.." Naruto started to say but Kushina cut him off.
"You are not allowed work," Kushina said with authority. She gave him a worried look, "I don't want to see you work youself ragged."
"Mom," Naruto replied with a sad look on his face. "I sorry for making you worry, but I need to keep working."
Kushina smiled and sat down next to her son, "I know you do, but you need to take a break, please for me."
Naruto just sighed, "Ok no working on IS unless absolutely necessary."
Kushina gave her son a hug, "That is all I ask," She replied as she held her son
-A few hours later-
Naruto walked into his home a few hours later. Tsunade had given him more specific orders on his taking a break from working. He basically couldn't do anything dealing physical work on IS, but he could do computer work. He didn't like that rule but it was better than not working at all.
He saw no one in the house and smiled. He planned on just changing into his work clothes and then head to his lab to continue his work. Naruto ascended the stairs and headed into his room. He went straight for his computer and started to pull up the designs for the Freedom and his other projects.
"What are you doing?" a voice said from across the room. Naruto quickly turned his head and saw his mother standing in his doorway.
"Hi." He said in bit of a daze.
"Welcome home Naruto," Kushina said with a smile. "How are you feeling?"
"A lot better," Naruto stated still frozen in place. His mind trying to make a plan so he could go back to work.
"So any plans for today?" Kushina asked with a sweet town to her voice.
Naruto just smiled, "Oh crap," he thought as he tried to think of something to say.
"You weren't planning on heading to your lab were you?" Kushina ashed.
Naruto quickly shook his head, "Of course not." He replied with a forced laughed, "I just planned on just playing some games on my computer. Need to get going on my Elo for League."
Kushina gave Naruto suspicious look, "Is that so?" she replied, "Do you mind if I watch you play."
"Sure," he replied as he tried to close everything and pulled up League of Legends. Kushina had walked over just in time to see the League log in window to be showing on the screen. She looked over the screen then looked to her son, who just gave her a big smile.
Kushina looked at the screen than back at Naruto, "Before you start do you mind if I check something?" she asked him calmly. Naruto nodded and moved out of the way, so Kushina could get at the computer. She quickly began to type and Naruto watched in horror as she pulled up all the things she had closed.
"So playing league were you?" she stated a bit of anger in her voice, she turned to face him, the blue prints for the Freedom on his screen. Naruto just stood there trying to think of what to say. Kushina looked at her son and sighed, "You are not to work on IS today, you know that."
"But…" he started to say but Kushina held up her hand to silence him.
"You are not to work on IS at all," Kushina stated in cold voice. "You are not to work on any designs, parts, or anything that has to deal with IS. Since clearly I can't trust you to stay away from IS on your own I will have to have someone watch you."
"I don't need a baby sitter." Naruto replied as his anger grew. "I feel just fine."
Kushina looked at her son, "You will do as you're told or I will allow Tsunade to give you a training session." She stated. Naruto just glared a bit at Kushina but nodded.
"Fine," Naruto replied as he sat down on his bed.
Kushina got up from Naruto computer and headed out of her room. She hated when she had to yell or argue with him. It hurt her, but she knew it need to be done. If he kept working at the pace he was at when he black out, something worse could happen to him. She didn't want that at all.
Kushina entered the kitchen and saw Chifuyu eating took the seat across from Chifuyu and sighed. "So I take it Naruto wasn't happy about not being able to work." Chifuyu stated as she to a swig of beer.
Kushina just nodded, "He just won't listen when it comes to IS." She replied with sadness. "He like his father, in that aspect. If something interest him enough he will strive to be the best at it no matter what. Even working himself to the bone. " Chifuyu nodded in agreement. She had seen Naruto when he got into one IS moods and it took a lot to get him out of it. Kushina sighed. "Knowing Naruto, he will try to find a way to go work on his IS projects."
"I can watch him for you." Chifuyu replied.
Kushina looked up with large diamonds in her eyes, "Really?" she asked with excitement.
"Yes," Chifuyu stated only to be pulled into a bear hug by Kushina.
"Thank you!" Kushina stated with happiness. "Oh thank you."
Chifuyu tried to get Kushina to let go, "No problem," she stated afters she escaped from Kushina grasp.
Kushina just smiled, "Now I don't have to worry about him doing something stupid." She stated as she stood up. "Well take care of my son for me. I have to get back to work. "
Chifuyu watched as Kushina rushed out of the house leaving Chifuyu alone in the kitchen. Chifuyu shook her head and finished her beer before heading to go check on Naruto. She walked over and entered Naruto room to find him sitting at his bed an art board in his hand.
"So what you up to?" she asked him making him drop his pencil in surprise.
Naruto looked at Chifuyu a scowl on his face, "Just goofing around," he stated and went back to drawing.
Chifuyu stood behind Naruto and looked at what he was drawing. She saw that it was a schematic for a new IS. She shook her head, "You're not supposed to be working on anything related to IS." She stated.
"I not working on an IS," Naruto replied with a hint of annoyance in his voice, "I just drawing."
"You're drawing an IS design," Chifuyu stated and took the art board away from Naruto. She looked over the drawing and saw the calculations covering the sides of the paper.
"Just leave me alone, "Naruto said as he stood up and walked over to his computer. Chifuyu watched as he started his computer. Chifuyu just shook her head and walk over to Naruto.
She quickly made a fist and punched Naruto on the top of his head, "Stop being a brat!" she stated as Naruto held his head in pain.
-SB-
Cecilia walked toward Kushina office wanting to know how Naruto is doing. She reached the office door and knocked lightly. She didn't receive an answer at first and Cecilia start to fidget. Suddenly Kushina voice rang though the door inviting Cecilia inside.
Cecilia smiled and quickly entered the office to find Kushina working on some paperwork. "Ms. Alcott," Kushina stated not looking up from her paperwork.
Cecilia was quiet for a few moments, "Well I was hoping you could tell me how Naruto is doing?" she asked with worry in her voice.
Kushina set her pen down and looked up at Cecilia, "He is doing well," Kushina stated with a small smile on her face.
Cecilia let out a sigh of relief, "That's good." She stated with a smile, "Will he be able to work on the Blue Tears with me? He told me I could help him finish the upgrades after he finished the new part for Blue Tears."
Kushina frowned, "Unfortunately Naruto is unable to work on the Blue Tears at this time, "she stated, "His doctor has order that he rest for the next few days. He is not allowed to work anything related to IS during that time."
Cecilia nodded, "That unfortunate," she replied. She looked at Kushina a slight blush spreading across her face. "Would it be ok for me to visit Naruto?"
"Of course you can," Kushina stated, "I think he would like that."
Cecilia nodded a smile gracing her face. She quickly exited the office and headed toward Naruto's home. As she walked she failed to notice someone walking up behind her.
"Cecilia," a voice stated, making Cecilia jump. She quickly turned and Chelsea her maid standing before her.
"Chelsea what is it?" Cecilia asked a bit annoyed and embaressed about what had just occurred.
"I have just received a call from home," Chelsea stated quietly. "They wish to speak with you."
Cecilia frowned, "What do they wish to talk with me about?" she asked.
"They are wondering when you will be returning home with the upgraded Blue Tears?" Chelsea replied. "The deadline for the upgrades to be finished is fast approaching and they don't want the upgrades to go over budget."
Cecilia nodded and sighed in annoyance at this. Since Naruto is now unable to work on anything related to IS for the next two weeks the upgrades will not get finished. She needed the upgrades finished so she could do what she wanted for the rest of the time off school. "I am heading over to Naruto's and I will ask him when the upgrades will be done." Cecilia stated, "I let you know once I return."
Chelsea smiled, "So you're going to see you man," she said with a sultry tone to her voice, "Well remember use protection if you get all hot and heavy, but remember to ask about the Blue Tears when you are resting."
Cecilia blushed at her maid's comment, "Ch..Chelsea do not say such things," she stated as her mind began to wonder. Chelsea watched as Cecilia went off into dream land a perverted looked coming upon her charges face.
Chelsea just tapped Cecilia on the forehead bringing her out of her trance, "Don't you have someplace to go?" she stated with a sly smile.
Cecilia quickly turned around and walked away, a blush still gracing her face. "I will see you at our place," She stated and headed toward Naruto home. Chelsea watched her walk away and giggle before heading on her way.
-SB-
Cecilia reached the front door of Naruto's home and knocked. She waited patiently for someone to open the door. She could hear the sound of someone in the house coming toward the door. She used the time to fix her hair and make sure she was looking her best.
The door opened and Cecilia smiled only for her expression to turn to shock as she the last person she expected to answer the door. "What do you want?" Chifuyu asked the shocked Cecilia, a bored expression on her face.
"Orimura-Sensai," Cecilia said, the surprise evident in her voice, "What are you doing here?"
Chifuyu looked down at Cecilia, "Why are you here?" she asked in annoyed.
"I..I came to see Naruto," Cecilia stammered out quickly. Chifuyu nodded and let Cecilia inside.
"Naruto!" Chifuyu shouted, making Cecilia jump. "Get your ass down here."
Naruto appeared at the bottom of the stairs and annoyed look on his face. He saw Cecilia standing in the hallway and he smiled. "Hi Cecilia," he said as he reached her. "It's nice to see you."
Cecilia looked at Naruto and tackled him to the ground, "You're ok," she stated as she tried not to cry. She was so happy that he was ok and not seriously hurt. Naruto just looked at the Cecilia and hugged her back.
"Yeah I fine," Naruto replied with a smile as her stroked Cecilia hair. Cecilia just sighed in contemptment and snuggled into Naruto chest.
"Get off each other before I separate you two," Chifuyu stated in annoyance. Cecilia quickly got off Naruto a large blush on her face. Chifuyu looked at the pair before her and sighed. "I will be in the kitchen if you need me."
Naruto got up off the floor and lead Cecilia to the front porch. "So what brings you here?" he asked as he sat down on the porch swing.
Cecilia sat down next to him and leaned her head onto Naruto's shoulder, "I just came to make sure you were ok," she replied with a small smile on her face.
"Well I very happy you came to see me," Naruto stated with a sigh, "I need a distraction from doing nothing."
Cecilia looked at Naruto, "Why that?" she asked the curiousity in her voice.
"I been ordered my Kaa-chan and Baa-chan have ordered me not to work on anything related to IS at all for a while," Naruto replied with a sigh. "I feel fine. I have to projects to finish."
Cecilia nodded, knowing all too well which projects he needed to finish. She looked Naruto in the eyes, "Then why don't you work on it without them knowing?" She stated.
Naruto nodded, "That was the plan but Chifuyu is watching me like a hawk. " he replied, "I won't even get close to the labs."
Cecilia nodded, a plan starting to form in her mind. She looked at Naruto and gave him a quick kiss. "I will be right back." She stated and headed into the house. Naruto watched her leave his mind still reeling from the kiss.
Cecilia walked through the house and found Chifuyu sitting at the kitchen table a beer in her hands. She was reading over some reports when Cecilia came into view.
"What do you want?" Chifuyu stated as she set down her holo reader.
"Naruto and I are headed out to town," Cecilia stated with a smile, "We are going to the movies so he won't be back for a while."
Chifuyu looked at Cecilia with a unreadable look on her face, "That fine," she stated as she picked up her holo reader, "Just don't go near the IS labs."
Cecilia smiled, "We won 't," she replied and ran out of the house. She found Naruto still seated on the porch swing. She grabbed his arm and dragged him toward his car. "Let's go."
Naruto looked at her in amazement, but he quickly smiled, "Let's go," he stated and started his car and drove off.
-SB-
A lone figure walked through the IS lab buildings an evil smirk on his face. He name was Mizaki, one of the IS designers that worked there, but he was fed up with not being recognized for his work. He been there for years and none of his designs had made it to the table.
"I'll show them," he stated as he reached his destination, Naruto Namikaze private lab. He had gotten in contact with a rival IS company and they told him if he could bring them something that would make them bigger the Konoha Industries they would build his designs.
Mizaki knew that the best designs from the company came from Naruto and his father. Unfortunately all of Minato Namikaze's designs were under lock and key in his wife's office. Naruto on the other hand were all kept in his lab. So all Mizaki had to do was copy all of Naruto's designs and he would be golden.
He entered the lab quickly and silently. He looked around and saw all the different IS parts all around, "what a mess." Mizaki said to himself as he walked around looking for the main computer. He saw the several half-finished IS and snorted, "I can design better IS in my sleep."
He finally found what he was looking for; "He we go," Mizaki stated and inserted a flash drive into the computer. He started tried to access all the files on the computer, but nothing came up. It took him several minutes to bypass most of the firewalls. He smiled evilly, finally his hard work was going to be appreciated and he would take the IS world by storm with his amazing designs.
Suddenly the sound of a door opening pulled Mizaki out of his thoughts. He heard the sounds of someone coming into the lab, "Crap," he said as he looked for a place to hide, "I thought no one was coming to the lab."
Mizaki hid behind a large pile of IS parts near the computer and watched to see who was coming. He frowned when he saw Naruto with the girl from England enter the lab. They seemed to be talking and laughing about something. Mizaki just sighed to himself, all he had to was wait for them to leave and he would grab the flash drive and he would be home free.
-SB-
"So what is left to do on the Blue Tears?" Cecilia asked as they walked into the lab.
Naruto just smiled, "It shouldn't take long," he replied, "Just need to finish installing the GN drive and then calibrate the weapons to run on the GN drive."
Cecilia nodded, "Sounds good," she said as the Blue Tears came into view. "It will be nice to test it out once you're done."
Naruto nodded and walked over to his computer, "I glad you're looking forward to it." He stated as he started to pull up the scemeatics of the upgrades. Suddenly he stopped when he noticed a status bar on the screen. He checked quickly what was downloading and saw that someone was copying all his designs. "What the hell?" he stated and canceled the download. He looked around and saw a flash drive plugged in. He pulled it out and frowned.
Cecilia noticed this and walked over, "what wrong?" she asked him as he looked over the flash drive.
"Someone was tried copy my designs," he said the anger evident in his voice.
Cecilia frowned, she looked around and didn't see anyone, "Maybe you left the flash drive in and were copying the files when you passed out." She said but Naruto shook his head.
"This is not my drive," he stated. Naruto took a look around and didn't see anyone when he watched as Cecilia suddenly freezes. Naruto turned and saw one of the IS designers standing there with a gun pointed at them.
"Well looks like I have been found out," he stated with a crazed look on his face. "Now Naruto, if you be so kind and continue the download of your designs I will let your pretty little friend live."
"Damn you Mizuki," Naruto stated.
Naruto glared at Mizuki and slowly walked over to his computer. He inserted the drive into the computer and started to type quickly. Naruto started the download, but was putting in dumbie files on the drive that he could track Mizuki later. Cecilia watched as Naruto worked and saw that Mizuki's attention was on Naruto. She reached behind her and found a wrench. She picked it up and looked at Mizuki.
"Hey," she called out making Mizuki look at her.
"What is it blondie?" Mizuki stated in annoyance.
"Why are you doing this?" she asked him.
Mizuki looked at her and chuckled, "It quite simple," he stated with an evil grin, "I just want to."
Naruto turned and looked at Mizuki, "You're a sick bastard." Naruto shouted at Mizuki.
"Shut your mouth," Mizuki stated, "You have no right to talk to me. I worked my life designing IS and I get nothing, while you get your way. Well now it my turn."
While Mizuki ranted Cecilia threw the wrench at him. It hit him in the arm and he turned toward Cecilia, "Stuipd bitch," he cried and leveled his gun at her.
"NO!" Naruto cried and ran at Mizuki. He tackled Mizuki to the ground and got rid of the gun Mizuki was holding.
Mizuki pushed Naruto off and scrambled to find his gun. Naruto followed after him and tackled him to the ground again. Naruto punched him in the face as hard as he could.
"Do not threaten my precious people," Naruto shouted as he beat Mizuki. Naruto kept attacking Mizuki until his face was a bloody mess. Naruto stopped attacking him and sighed in relief. He got up off Mizuki and walked over to Cecilia. "Let's call security they will take care of him."
Cecilia nodded when she suddenly saw Mizuki standing up the gun in his hands. "DIE!" he shouted and fired. Naruto grabbed Cecilia and moved her out of the line of fire, the bullets sailed past them but hit several of his wielding fuel tanks. Naruto and Cecilia were thrown back from the tank explosion
Naruto slowly got up off the ground, his ears ringing from the explosion. He looked around, "Cecilia," he called out but no one answered him. He looked around for Mizuki and saw that he had left, taking the flash drive with him.
Naruto slowly got up and looked at the damage that explosion had caused. Most of the spare IS parts were destroyed, but most of his main projects were still intact. He walked slowly forward when he heard someone moan. Naruto turned and saw Cecilia laying a few feet away from him not moving.
"Cecilia!" Naruto cried and ran over to her. She was badly hurt, she had severe burns from the explosion all over her legs. She was barely breathing and was covered in debris. Naruto held Cecilia in his arms, tears flowing down his face. "I so sorry,"
Suddenly the lab doors open and fire fighters ran inside. Kushina followed in right behind them and ran over to Naruto and Cecilia, "What happened?" she asked as she looked over the damages.
"Mizuki tried to steal my designs," Naruto stated as he slowly stroked Cecilia's hair. "He had a gun and had me download the files for him, but I have him false files that can be tracked when loaded to a computer. Cecilia threw a wrench at him and I tackled him to the ground. I thought I took him down but he got back up and fired the gun at us. He hit the wielding tanks instead."
"Take Cecilia to hospital," Kushina told Naruto, "I take care of everything else."
Naruto slowly nodded and the Medical Unit rushed in and put Naruto onto a gurney. Naruto followed Cecilia out of the lab holding her hand the entire way. "I make him pay," Naruto said as they walked, "I make sure he feels so much pain for hurting you."
Naruto made sure that Cecilia was loaded into the ambulance and slowly turned. He saw that he was face to face with the Head of Security for Konoha Industries, Yugao Uzuki. She looked Naruto at Naruto with concern, "So what are you going to do?" she asked him
Naruto gave her a serious look, his eyes burning with anger, "I am going to find Mizuki and end him," Naruto stated and started to walk away. Yugao watched him leave and started to follow
