Disclaimer: First Chapter
Ruby and Yang's reactions to Naruto were tame because it has been DAYS for them, unlike Taiyang.
Story Start!
'All systems running at 100%... what?' Naruto thought to himself when he woke up, and for some reason he heard a strange voice inside of his own head telling him that everything was working properly. The voice was both his own, and not his own voice... and it had an echo to it. At the same time, it was like he could hear the voice outside of his body as well.
...
Body?
What body, Naruto looked around with his open eyes... before he blinked at the fact that he had two eyes. Last time he checked, most of his body had been destroyed... Actually, the last thing he remembered before the explosion was the sound of something ticking about five feet behind him, and right under him... son of a bitch, somebody had blown him up with not one bomb, but multiple bombs. No wonder he had been blown to pieces, and those pieces burned in the flames.
He was SO going to track down his killer and knock their teeth in for this.
Naruto looked down, feeling something on his chest.
...
Chest? He should not have one of those anymore, Naruto looked down and right away he could see Ruby and Yang both laying with their heads on his chest, clearly asleep. Naruto heard the sound of some kind of machinery moving, and he blinked again when he looked at himself. In the corner of his eye, and not in the real world, it looked like he was looking through a scope. Naruto could SEE the amount of Aura that Ruby had inside of her, and even Yang's aura amount was known to him.
Naruto tried to move his body, but something was... different.
Not just different, but it was like there was more to him now. Naruto didn't feel the urge to take in breaths anymore, he didn't need to... despite having not taken a breath in or out for awhile now, despite being able to, he wasn't dying. He didn't feel the need to breath anymore, and despite being awake he had only blinked out of surprise, other than that he hadn't blinked yet. The world was so much more vivid to him now, colors were brighter, and everything seemed to be just so much... clear. He didn't know how to best explain it, even to himself, but now the world seemed to be... strange to him.
Even the touch of his sister's head on his chest was a strange one, the feeling wasn't the same as it normally was when he woke up with Ruby.
Naruto leaned his head down, before he looked towards his arms... and his eyes widened when he saw that they weren't normal. Naruto carefully moved his body back so that their heads were in his lap now, and he got the first look at his legs when he saw up... his long white robot legs, connected to his torso by strange mechanic joints... and the strange ends to his legs that didn't resemble feet. His hands were strange, and he raised them to the front of his vision.
When his arms moved, the same loud robotic movement sound was heard as well, and Naruto looked at his shoulders and saw that they were in the same state.
He wasn't freaking out though.
It was like the information about working his body was already inside of him, so once he got started on moving his body a little bit it seemed to become more and more natural for him to do. In the way of dimensions, this body was the same height as his old body, and the same width amongst other things. His fingertips seemed strange to him, and Naruto looked at them for a second. He flexed his fingers, and he thought about it for a moment... and then the gray tips of his fingers inverted and opened up to show holes. Naruto pointed one of his fingers the wall, and he thought about shooting a bullet at the wall.
*BANG*
There was a bright blast that came out of his finger, a brief flash of fire that normally came out of a weapon, and not even a fraction of a second a hole appeared in the wall. His siblings, and his father, who he just now noticed was in the room, jumped wide awake at the loud noise. They looked at Naruto, who looked at them with a light smile on his face. Naruto continued to look at his body.
"Naruto! You're awake!" Ruby shouted as she hugged him tightly, and he rubbed the top of her head. Naruto's lips moved as he told her that he was awake now, but despite his lips moving, no voice came out of his mouth. He blinked, and his fingers touches his strangely soft lips despite him not knowing whaT he was.
"Naruto!" Yang nearly screamed as she hugged him as well, and he rubbed the top of her head.
"Son, try focusing on your words... you don't talk the same way now." Taiyang told Naruto, since obviously Naruto was trying to talk.
Naruto didn't need to breath, and his body lacked vocal cords. He had a throat, but his voice didn't come that. His voice came out of some parts inside of his head, and it was muffled by his mouth when it was closed. He didn't need to move his mouth to talk, he just needed it open for people to hear him. At the same time, Naruto could move his lips in sync with his voice to make it seem like he was talking.
"What happened?" Naruto asked after thinking about his words, and his voice was both his own... and had an echo to it at the same time. Naruto wasn't sure what to make of it, in a way, it sounded like a more robotic version of his original voice... Naruto looked around the room, and figured that he was in some kind of hospital.
...
"Is something wrong?" Yang asked Naruto, wondering if he needed anything.
"Why am I in a hospital, should I be at a mechanics?" Naruto joked, hiding how much his body bothered him from his family. Him no longer being human didn't bother him, what bothered him was the fact that he was cheating death like this in the first place. He didn't like the fact that nobody had thought about what he wanted before placing him inside of this body, Ruby snorted, before the hyper girl started to laugh her ass off at the joke when she started to understand it.
"You... aren't upset with me?" Taiyang asked Naruto, who shook his head.
"I'm not, parents do anything to protect their children." Naruto spoke like he knew what Taiyang was going through. He had been a parent before, he completely understood the fact that parents were not suppose to see their children die. It could drive a parent mad with grief, so if him being in this... body helped his family not have to grieve over his death, then he could live with this.
He had to, he wasn't going to commit suicide... he didn't even know HOW to die in this body.
"Do you need anything, anything at all?" Yang asked Naruto as she took his hand in her hands, and despite the fact that he shouldn't be able to feel her hand... if his knowledge on robots were right, then he had no sense of touch. His fingertips had returned to him when he had touched Yang, and she looked at him with some surprise at how tender his touch was. His hand was hard, but it was strange that he could touch her in such a gentle way with his new body.
"I just need a little bit of time to get used to this... better than being dead though." Naruto told them, trying to lift their spirits.
"Oh, this body is awesome! Look at it, I can do SO much tickering with you! You don't even have gross, squishy guts anymore!" Ruby gushed over his body as she ran her hand up his leg. She grabbed at the joint connecting his leg to his body, before she moved it and peeked inside of his body, only to see nothing without actually taking it off. She pouted at that, since all she had were the blueprints at the moment, and no hands on experience with taking him apart and fixing him up.
Naruto looked at her with a raised eyebrow... he still had those, and hair, and apparently the ability to raise his eyebrow.
"Explaination?" Naruto asked, and it must have been strange to see his mouth simply open and words come out.
"Ruby is good at tech, and close to you, so she was given your blueprints for your body if you ever needed repairs. Don't worry though, your body is very sturdy, the most you have to worry about is something getting stuck or moved out of place!" Taiyang assured Naruto, who looked at his hands curiously. Naruto was going to have to figure out the limits of this body... and the second he thought that Naruto touched a hand to his face and sighed... he could still breath, he just didn't have to do it.
Overcoming his limits now depended on him learning about his body, being creative, and finding parts that went well with him.
First though, he needed to know just what his body was.
"Hey little bro, I want you to know... even if you don't have 'gross squishy guts' anymore... that I am still your big sister. No matter what happened to you, we will ALWAYS be a family... because family isn't just decided by how your born." Yang told Naruto when she saw the look on his face, and while it was very sweet of her to tell him that... it was completely unneeded. He hadn't been worried about what they were thinking of him in the slightest, instead, he was just worrying about how he was going to get stronger.
"Oh... I see no problem then." Naruto told her, pretending that was what was wrong with him, because she tried to help him he would make her feel good as well.
"Son, I was just about to run and pick us all up some lunch... hey Ruby, is Naruto able to eat?" Taiyang asked his daughter, who pulled out her scroll and looked at the blueprints for a second. She clicked on the torso area, before it pulled up many different smaller items, which were way to complicated for Naruto to understand, and she went over them. She clicked on many of them and looked at their functions, before she frowned.
"It looks like liquids go to one system, and food gets sent to... hmmm... seems like food burned and the smoke collected and compressed... so he can eat... and he does have taste buds, though he can turn them off." Ruby confirmed for them as she looked over the blueprints some more, finding them WAY more interesting now that Naruto was awake and they knew for a fact that he was going to be okay.
"Okay then! Yang, Ruby... pizza and cookies for you two obviously... and what about you Naruto? I'm serious, anything you want and I will go get it." Taiyang offered, and Yang understood why Naruto was getting special treatment, and was fine with it.
It was a freak miracle he was alive.
It was only his Semblence activating instantly and creating a false-body for him to replace his real one, keeping him alive for help to come, that had allowed for this to happen.
His Semblence had let him cheat death itself... in a way.
"Some red bean soup would be nice... with some ice water." Naruto said, even though he wasn't hungry... he might not even be able to get hungry now that he thought about it.
"Sure thing kiddo." Taiyang said, ruffling Naruto's hair and messing it up just the way Naruto liked to have his hair... another thing that he was surprised to have. Naruto touched his blond hair and moved it in front of his eyes. His hair looked like human hair, but his new eyes were telling him otherwise. His hair was made to reflect the sun's rays as much as possible, being made of a heat resistance metal fiber, to keep his head chilled. Naruto pinched his cheek, and he stretched out his cheek a bit more than a human cheek could stretch, before he let go and it snapped back into place flawlessly.
"If you want to experiment with your body, wait until we leave the... room... sorry." Yang said when she realized that her joke could be taken the wrong way. It was taken the wrong way, because Naruto looked down at his torso at the spot where his crotch should be... and he saw nothing.
...
"Well this sucks, guess any kid I have will be adopted... wait, nevermind." Naruto commented to himself... he was GLAD that he donated sperm now. Of course, it would be awkward as hell for him to go to the sperm bank and ask for his donated sperm back, but who cares... he was a robot now.
"You know, since your crotch is flat I can go buy you a dildo with a suction cup so we can just... stick it on you when you need it." Yang offered Naruto, and he nodded... good thing to know that sex wasn't impossible, and he was a regular donor at the sperm bank. There were a LOT of lesbians in the world that wanted kids, but couldn't have them... so he had donated his seed for the pupose of helping people.
Good thing too, because now he was going to have to help himself.
Good thing that sperm could be frozen indefinitely without affecting pregnancy too much.
What? He did want a family one day, and while he was fine with adoption, it was nice knowing that he had the option to have genetic children... even without his genetic body anymore.
"That is an awkward thing to say Yang... but thanks for the offer." Naruto told her with a smile, good to know he had family by his side.
"Hmmm, well, it is a flat surface, so the suction cup should stick... wait, what are we talking about?" Ruby asked, not having paid much attention. She had just heard suction cup and sticking it, and figured they were going to stick a suction cup to Naruto. His surface area was made so that if you wanted to stick something there, it would be completely possible, but at the same time, it might leave some marks on Naruto's metal if used for too long... nothing a good cleaning wouldn't fix though.
'Wait... is it incest if I attach King Dong to him and ride him?' Yang thought for a moment, her brow furrowing.
Was that even sex?
She was still doing it with a dildo, but the dildo was just connected to somebody else, who happened to be her brother.
If she rode him when he was turned off, was that rape or wierd masturbation? She was just humping a dildo while on top of him, so was that considered too freaky and kinky for masturbation... Yang grabbed the sides of her head, unsure why she was even thinking these thoughts.
'Hmmm... that is a pretty interesting thought... maybe I could get one in white to match with my torso?' Naruto thought as he looked down at the front of his flat, but teen shaped, body. Ruby looked completely left out, before she saw that Naruto was paying attention and his arm was hanging at his side. She grabbed it, thus grabbing Naruto's attention, and opened the armguard... finding that the inside of the guard had what looked like revolving ammo holders.
'So cool... I am going to go get my toolbox tomorrow, and have sooooo much fun taking this apart and customizing it... maybe I can even give it a red paintjob.' Ruby thought to herself, and Naruto thought of something.
"Ruby, can you add something to my body? I want some way to cancel out Electo Magnetic Waves." Naruto asked Ruby, and she looked at the blueprints.
"No need for that, magnets shouldn't have too much affect on you. That white covering on your body helps out with that. It protects you from EMPs and should have you covered for magnetism too." Ruby told him, quickly looking for the part of his designs that he needed... and he sighed in relief.
Good thing too, looks like he won't have to end his rivalry with Pyrrha.
...
Pyrrha.
Shit, how was he going to explain... his new body to Pyrrha?
"Mister Rose, since you are awake, your friends have been cleared to visit you." The nurse said as she looked in through the open door.
...
Shit.
Chapter End!
Naruto was NOT designed after Robocop, Ultron, Astroboy, that Asura guy from the game. His design comes from Aigis from Persona 3.
Please Leave Me Lots Of Nice Long Reviews, But No Flames Please!
Life: It is something that you can not predict, and despite how we plan, life can ruin our plans. The reason I made Naruto this way was to capture how LIFE can be so unpredictable. I planned this for awhile now, so it wasn't random... I just never warned you I was doing it.
