Chapter 2
It has been a calm 8 years since Naruto has met and found the Orbital Frames, where they live is in the forest of death since there they can fly around and not be disturbed by any of the civilians or any ninja that hates Naruto.
It was time for Naruto and the other ninja hopefuls to graduate from the academy and be placed on teams.
When Naruto was there first and sat in his seat in the top row in the back and looked at his clothing.
He was wearing a dark, almost black, rust orange shirt with a mesh shirt underneath it, he was wearing dark blue pants with black sandals. The clothes have black lines that start's from his wrist and ankles that travel up his limbs and continue until they meet at the center of his chest with the line making many patterns as they go across his limbs and body.
He also remembered what Jiji had talked to him yesterday about the graduation.
"I still can't believe Jiji is going to have me graduate anyway, even if I don't pass the exam." Naruto thought to himself as he waited for all the students to arrive, but he wasn't expecting Jiji to walk in when everyone was there.
Naruto raised an eyebrow as he looked at Jiji before he looked back at the front when Iruka started the speech which Naruto tuned out and closed his eyes.
A few minutes later a piece of chalk was sent flying at high speed toward Naruto's head, which he tilted to the side and the chalk went past and hit the wall. He opened his eyes to see Iruka staring at him with a surprised look before he started talking.
"Naruto! Pay attention!" Iruka said loudly while the students laughed quietly to themselves before anything else could happen the chalk came flying back and bounced off the desk in front of Iruka and landed in the tray on the board behind him.
Everyone, besides the Hokage and Naruto, was surprised by this and looked toward where it came from only to see nothing but Naruto in the way as he had a grin.
"Surprise." Naruto said as he watched them trying to figure out what happened.
What they didn't know, besides the Hokage and a few other people, was that since Naruto had Metatron infused into him, along with a source of it that keeps making more of it inside of him, that he is like a human size Orbital Frame now, though there are still things he can't do like make a normal sized Orbital Frame body for himself, he was told he might be able too if he practices with making things with Metatron more complex and bigger, but it will take a while before he could make his own Orbital Frame body.
He also could transform into human-size versions of Jehuty, Anubis, and Dolores, but that takes a great amount of concentration to do the full body, but he could make small parts of them easily and quickly, like making his arm like one of theirs or have a pair of their wings as examples.
Naruto was brought back to his sense when he saw everybody move outside to the throwing range.
"Time to get started then." Naruto said to himself quietly, he noticed that the Hokage grew a grin when he heard Naruto speak and when he saw Naruto looking at him, he gave a nod and a hand sign that Naruto only knew along with the few people that he trusted.
When Naruto saw the hand sign his eyes widen a little before he grew an excited grin as he made his way to his spot in the shade of a tree and watched as the other students were called up and went to throw shuriken and kunai at the targets.
"Naruto Uzumaki!" Iruka said while he looked to see Naruto laying down in the shade before he lifted his legs up and brought them down quick, only for his heels to make contact with the ground before his body moved like it was on a pivot until he was standing and walking toward the range.
He heard his classmates talk quietly as he got in place and reached his arm back like he was about to throw a kunai or shuriken.
"HA! The idiot doesn't even have a shuriken or kunai!" One of the students said out loud before many of them started to laugh, Naruto simply ignored them and made a thought of a kunai in his hand, causing a kunai to appear in a flash of light blue in his hand.
The laughing stopped as soon as they saw the kunai appear, before they could say anything Naruto threw it, hitting the target on the bullseye while using the momentum to bring his other arm back, another kunai appearing in his hand before he threw it as well and repeated the process until all ten were used before he switched to using shuriken.
When he was done he simply walked back to his spot in the shade of the tree and waited until the next part began.
When they started the sparring next, they had to go against an instructor and last 5 minutes or more until Iruka calls the match.
"Naruto!" Iruka called out, looking at Naruto to see him still laying under the tree.
Before Iruka could yell at him, Naruto got up and walked into the ring with the instructor their going against.
When Naruto got a look at him, he noticed it was Mizuki, someone who hates his guts and thinks he is the Kyuubi, along with trying to sabotage his education.
Naruto saw the look in Mizuki's eye's and groaned in his mind.
"This is just great, he's up to something." Naruto thought to himself as he watched Mizuki carefully for anything.
As Iruka started the match, Mizuki took off at speeds of a high genin, expecting Naruto to be too surprised to move.
What he saw was Naruto looking at him with a bored gaze, infuriating Mizuki. When Mizuki got close to Naruto and threw a jab Naruto sidestepped before moving at speeds much higher than Mizuki or anyone was expecting and slammed his knee into Mizuki's chest, causing him to hunch over.
Naruto then stepped to the side until he was right next to Mizuki and raised his hands up and held them together before bringing them down slowly, slow to him but fast for everyone else, onto Mizuki's back forcing him onto the ground on his stomach.
Naruto then kicked Mizuki's with a little bit more force than necessary, because the kick sent him out the ring and into a couple of bushes by the wooden fence by the students.
The students were shocked at what they saw, some of them were fuming about how the dead last was better than them, a certain Uchiha thinking that the strength Naruto used should be his.
"Good work Naruto," Iruka said as he wrote something on the clipboard before looking back up at him.
"But take it down a notch on the kick a bit, would ya." Iruka said with a slight upward twitch of the corner of his mouth showing he was trying not to grin.
"I'll try, but no promises." Naruto said as he walked with the other students back to the classroom for the academy three jutsu.
Naruto noticed that the Hokage left, but he left something with Iruka that looked like a note and a package.
When everybody was in their seats, Iruka read the note quickly before raising an eyebrow, he then looked at Naruto.
"Naruto, please come up here." Iruka said while he put the note down and grabbed the package and tossed it to Naruto when he got close enough.
"The Hokage wanted you to have that," Iruka said while Naruto opened it to see a silver mask that wraps around his head, going over it and leaving the lower part of the back open.
But what surprised Naruto about the mask is that it was shaped to look exactly like Jehuty's, Anubis's, and Dolores's heads. It looked like their faces with the black forehead crest and nothing else, it also had a black visor over where the eyes are.
Naruto also noticed that the mask had the pieces that go over the ears similar to Jehuty's along with what he can see being some metal that on the inside of the ear covers that look like they can move.
Naruto looked at Iruka, silently asking what it was.
"It's a mask that the Hokage had made personally for you, considering that you are graduated now and are a special rank," Iruka said before he smiled with pride at his younger brother in everything but blood before finishing.
"Congratulations, Runner Naruto." Iruka said as he held the smile while Naruto smiled as well before he looked at the mask in his hands.
Their family-like moment was interrupted by many students who were clan heirs, mainly Sasuke and Kiba.
But what they all didn't know was that the Hokage was in his office with his all-seeing orb watching the class along with the clan heads.
Tsume, Kiba's mother, shook her head while growling lowly.
"I'm going to beat that attitude out of him when he gets home." Tsume said while watching, some of the other clan head almost felt sorry for the kid.
Keyword being 'almost'.
Back in the class, Sasuke stood up with a look of anger.
"Why does the dope get a special rank that should be mine, an Uchiha Elite!" Sasuke demanded with a glare aimed at Naruto, who ignored him, angering Sasuke more.
Kiba stood up as well with a confident look.
"I doubt the dope could even keep the rank for a day before it's taken from him." Kiba said arrogantly while staring at Naruto like he was below him, but Kiba received the same treatments as Sasuke, infuriating him.
Naruto was still looking at the mask when the two first interrupted before he turned it around and placed it on his head, the mask fitting perfectly on his head.
He sent some Metatron to the mask, causing it to glow slightly before a face guard slide into place from the ear covers, covering his face completely with the visor completing the look along with the back of the mask having plates of metal slid down and stopped until it completely covered his head as a helmet.
Everybody was surprised by this, Sasuke and Kiba were about to say something to insult Naruto, but before they could do that Iruka spoke.
"You're free to go, Naruto. Also, the Hokage said that your able to bring your three friends into the open now since he informed all the shinobi that are on duty about them." Iruka informed his surrogate brother.
Naruto nodded before he turned to an open window, the lines on him having the pulse pattern again, this time also going up to the helmet and the same happening to it with lines glowing on it with two eye-like spots on the crest to light up.
The students and Iruka were surprised by this but were more surprised when Naruto held up a hand and made a hand sign that none of them knew, except for Iruka, and they saw something moving in the group of trees in the academy's yard like something big was moving through them.
What they saw was what looked like a giant aqua colored statue that was moving, it came out of the tree's which came up to below its waist, surprising many of them considering it was hiding within the trees and not noticed until now.
Naruto ran toward the window before jumping out and had what looked like smaller versions of the giant's wings appear on his back and flew toward it while it floated in the air, waiting for him.
When Naruto got close the cockpit cover dematerialized, allowing him to sit down before the cover materialized after he sat down, he let Jehuty fly herself while he was looking around.
He saw all his former classmates staring at Jehuty in awe and a little bit of fear, he also saw Sasuke glaring at Jehuty.
"I already know what he's thinking." Naruto said out loud before Jehuty took off over the buildings and flew at a leisure pace around the village.
Naruto looked around some more to see many civilians staring up at them with fear while a couple of passing shinobi were watching in awe as they saw Jehuty for the first time.
"If Sasuke Uchiha thinks he can claim Jehuty or the others as his own, then it won't happen." Ada said, saying Sasuke's name with some venom, making Naruto chuckle a little before he willed the face plate and visor to open, the visor sliding up and the face guard sliding back to their previous places.
"Yep, cause I got a feeling it might involve him flying through the air if he tried, right?" Naruto guessed, his answer being Ada making a humming sound, making Naruto laugh out loud.
Before long they got a call from Dolores from the forest of death.
"Hey, is it time we can come out now?" Dolores whined childishly, getting a chuckle from Naruto before he spoke with a smile.
"Yea, you can come out into the open now." Naruto said as he stopped Jehuty in the center of the village and turned her to face the forest of death and raised her left hand toward the sky, confusing many people who were watching.
Soon Dolores came flying out of the trees of the forest of death at high speed, coming right at them along with Anubis trailing behind her, giggling the whole way.
When the two made it they stopped in front of Jehuty, who lowered her hand, they greeted each other.
"How did it go, Naruto?" Anubis asked with curiosity in her voice while the cover on the cockpit dematerialized and Naruto stretched his arms upward before answering.
"It went well, but I think Sasuke's going to try something, probably complain to the civilian council to try and have me hand you guys over to him, claiming that your 'Uchiha Property' that I stole." Naruto said, making quote signs with his fingers when he said Uchiha property with sarcasm.
Anubis simply growls.
"He can try and he will fail." Anubis said while crossing her arms.
Dolores spoke with excitement in her voice, changing the subject.
"Do you like out graduation gift for you?" Dolores asked while looking at Naruto with her hands clasped in front of her chest with her head tilted slightly.
"Yes, I love it. Thank you, girls." Naruto said while smiling up at them, him knowing their smiling too.
They flew to the Hokage monument and began relaxing up there since before Naruto left the academy he heard Iruka call out to him saying that he had a week off before he began missions, Naruto wasn't complaining.
They stayed up at the monument messing around until it started to get dark, their bodies illuminating the area around them with the glow of Metatron as it passed through them before they floated into the air.
"Well, let's get home. We might have to pick up Anko as well." Naruto said as they flew through the air a leisure pace before they noticed a kunoichi in a trench coat and a purple spiky ponytail jumping from the roofs toward the forest of death.
Anubis flew lower until she was behind Anko and when she jumped again, Anubis placed her hand underneath Anko, getting a surprised yelp from her as Anubis carried her up until they were back with the others.
"Surprise." Naruto said simply with a grin that Anko mirrored.
"Hey, Gaki. Congratulations on your rank." Anko said while sitting down with her legs dangling over the edge of Anubis's hand.
"Hello to you as well." Dolores said with a giggle before Naruto spoke with curiosity in his voice.
"Why were you out and about at this time, speaking of which why were there more ninjas than normal at this time?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.
"There was a problem, the problem was that the forbidden scroll was stolen from the Hokage vault," Anko said with seriousness before she finished speaking with a grin.
"But the thief was identified as Mizuki, the way we found this out was because Iruka was chasing him earlier. But when Mizuki was about to get away a beam of blueish energy as Iruka described it shot past him by a few feet and nailed Mizuki right in the ass, making him unable to move from the waist down unless he caused untold amounts of pain. The scroll was recovered and safely placed back in the vault with more security seals place and the ones already there were upgraded." Anko finished her tale before looking at Naruto with a bigger grin.
"That beam was your doing wasn't it." Anko stated, making Naruto nod with a chuckle before they closed in on the forest of death before entering and flew for a few minutes in silence before they came upon the tower in the center of the forest, the tower is much bigger now since Naruto and the orbital frames upgraded it to be bigger and have more rooms along with hangers for any projects they are working on along with hangers designed specifically to be rooms for the orbital frames.
"Well, time to get some shut-eye." Naruto said as they entered through a hanger door that closed behind them with the lights on and he jumped out and floated to a walkway with Anko being placed on the same one.
"Night girls." Naruto said as he walked into a room that's at the center of the entire tower that had a view of all three hangers that the orbital frames used as their rooms, three walls serving as the windows and the fourth one being the wall with the door to elsewhere in the tower.
His room was circular and hanging from the ceiling with the three hangers on three sides of it so Naruto could see Jehuty, Anubis, and Dolores along with their being doors on the far end side of the windows so he can enter the hangers of the respective orbital frames.
His bed was halfway to the center and the wall, the center of the room is a circular hatch that can be opened along with the same hatchway on the ceiling above the one on the floor.
The room had a desk close to the bed along with a scroll shelf to store and hold any scroll's Naruto has along with a normal bookshelf. There was also a closet cabinet for his close next to the bookshelf.
Naruto walked over to the desk and placed his helmet their before he went over to the closet and changed his clothes into a pair of shorts and a simple white t-shirt and walked over to the bed, but before he got in he looked at the windows to see the girls peering in.
"Really?" Naruto asked with a deadpan look before he shook his head and got in the bed and prepared to sleep.
"Go to sleep you three, we have a week before we start mission's, alright." Naruto said while he started to drift off to sleep, faintly hearing them agreeing before everything went quiet.
Then he heard a quiet lullaby coming from Dolores, making him drift off faster, before falling asleep completely with nice dreams of him and the girls going on many missions and having fun.
