SUP GUYS?! Ready for an action packed chapter?! Huh? Are ya?….too bad lol not much action here. It's all story development so sorry maybe next chapter?
Currently, Naruto and Sakura were sitting at a medium sized Table in a dimly lit room with two guards posted at the door, the walls were a dark gray that had several unnatural stains in various places and the faint smell of death lingered in the air. It was obvious that this was an interrogation room. It was a classic interrogation tactic the less lawful individuals use. Leave the ones being interrogated in a room that clearly showed that the interrogating process will be brutal, a psychological trick that would make all but hardened soldiers buckle. After nearly an hour of waiting, the door opened, with the ear shattering music of afterlife blasting in the room. Aria walked in followed by the asari they rescued. Upon entering, the door closed back, cutting off all the wild techno music from afterlife.
The defacto ruler of Omega sat across the table from the duo, with her agent standing at ease on her right. She had a barely noticeable look of displeasure on her face. This was why Naruto didn't want to bother with her right away. He could tell that she was pissed, she was simply doing a very good job at covering it up for the most part. The silence in the room was ear bursting, so it shouldn't come as a surprised as to what happened next…..
"Oh for fuck's sake!" Sakura blurted out. "Are we going to sit here and stare at each other's faces or are we going to get to the freaking point of this little "meeting"?" She finished as she raised her restrained hands and made little air quotes.
At this Naruto let out a slight growl of annoyance.
"It's hard to tell if you're very brave, or very stupid." Aria said. Slouching back into her chair a little bit. "I'm in a bit of a bind. One of my largest stores of goods gets hit, my top agent almost gets kidnapped, and is saved." She paused. "By two random passersby's who happen to know how to handle a gun, and also happen to know about the attack."
At this Naruto and Sakura said nothing.
"Who are you and who do you work for?" Aria asked. "The blue suns? Eclipse?"
"We don't really work for anyone per se." Naruto began. "But if we did have an affiliation, it would be with Commander Shepard."
"Shepard?" Aria asked. "Then were is he? His ship hasn't docked to omega for some time."
"We went or separate ways to better assist him on his war against the collectors." Naruto answered.
"And how does being in omega help?"
"It's not like we're living here. We are just stopping by for supplies."
"Yet you went out of your way to "save" my operative." Aria said. "Many have tried similar tactics just to worm their way into my little organization to take it down. Undercover law enforcement, blue suns, Eclipse, and many others I don't care to mention." She said as she frowned. "So in light of this, why shouldn't I just kill you here and now? This was clearly an attack from a join op of the blue suns, eclipse and blood pack."
"That is where you are wrong." Naruto said. "Those merc groups had nothing to do with that attack."
At this, the agent, who was silent up to this point spoke up. "It's just as I told you. Regardless of what was found in the aftermath, some things don't add up." She said to Aria.
"You keep quiet." Aria ordered. "When you're in this line of work it's best to be somewhat paranoid." She finished as she turned back to Naruto. "Well then, if it wasn't the blue suns or the other merc groups, who was it?"
"Cerberus." Naruto answered simply.
"That would make the most sense given what I saw." The agent interjected only for Aria to give her a glare. "You can glare all you want I'm calling it like I see it." The little show of disrespect took Naruto a little bit off guard but he didn't show it.
"Do you have proof of what you claim?" Aria asked.
"Besides the fact that every single operative that attacked was human and far too coordinated for 3 groups who were too uncoordinated to take down a single turian hold up in a building?" Naruto asked, referring to the arch-angel incident. "Sakura let her hear the transmission you intercepted."
At this Sakura simply broke her restricts, immediately causing the guards to point their guns are her. Upon seeing this she frowned. "Seriously, the only thing those toys will do is piss me off." She deadpanned. "Believe me, if I really wanted to, I could kill you before you even if you riddle me with bullets."
Aria raised her hand at the guards, signaling them to stand down. Sakura then activated her Omni-tool and played the transmission. Upon hearing it aria was quite for a few moment before speaking.
"In light of everything I've heard, have no choice but to agree that Cerberus was trying to get its teeth into omega. And the fact that they seem to know about Liselle here tells me that my ship is not as rodent free as I would like."
"Then does that mean we get to leave?" Naruto asked.
"Not just yet." Aria said with a slight look of distrust. "Cerberus is known for its top of the line tech. they would have, without a doubt had this transmission heavily encrypted. The tech we have here in omega isn't slouching either but it slipped past our net, yet you were able to catch it. I believe you know where I'm going with this."
'Ahh fuck' Naruto thought to himself. 'I really don't want to be broadcasting Sakura's nature anymore than needed.' "I suppose if I told you I couldn't answer that I would end up with a bullet in my head yeah?"
"Smart man." Aria said. "I like that."
"Sakura how safe is this room?" Naruto asked, confusing everyone.
At this everyone noted how Sakura's eyes changed from green to blue momentarily before returning to green. Sakura walked to a nearby vent and took out the grate. Inspecting it carefully, she tore off the upper bar, showing that it was hollow. She them ripped open the bar itself revealing an extremely small device and placed it on the table. At this, aria looked pissed. She turned Liselle as she destroyed the device with a small show of biotics. "Take this and get it analyzed. I have a good idea who put this here." She ordered.
Liselle nodded and took the device. As she was leaving aria's voice called out. "And kill the ass that let that bug slip by." She then looked at her guards " And you two get out of here. You're no longer needed." After everyone left, Aria returned her attention back to Naruto.
"Sending your guards away when you clearly see one of your captives waltzing about the room?" Naruto asked. "Rather careless."
At this aria smirked. With one hand, she created a powerful singularity on top of Sakura, causing her to float harmlessly in the room, much to her dismay. "I didn't get where I am today by being weak." She began. "You two may think you're hotshots, all powerful. But I've been in this game for centuries." Now her smirk turned into a frown. "I can end you both before you get anywhere near me." She continued in a deadly tone. "Now. How are you able to break Cerberus comms?"
Naruto looked at Sakura, who was haplessly flailing around in the air before taking a deep breath. "Simply put, Sakura over there is an A.I." Naruto started. "She was the one who intercepted the transmission."
Upon hearing this aria raised a single brow. "That's and A.I?" She asked, not really buying into it. "Okay I'll play your little game. Such an advanced A.I wouldn't be floating around with some unknown like you. They are, for good reason, illegal. So once again, this implies that you are tied to an undesirable organization, perhaps Cerberus themselves.
"If you get technical, since I'm helping Shepard, by extension, I would be tied to Cerberus…..for now." Naruto said. However, I never even knew of their existence until recently."
"Bullshit. Every knows about Cerberus." Aria said, a small amount of anger in her voice. "It's obvious that you thin I'm a fool. I will get the information out of you. One way, or another."
At this Naruto sighed. "Fine you want the whole truth?" Naruto asked. "Then I'll tell you." He then told her of his origins from the galaxy known as New Eden.
After Naruto finished his explanation, Aria sat there for a few moments with an expressionless look before she began to laugh. "Well then, can you prove to me what you say is true?" She asked.
"You needn't look any further than Sakura." Naruto began. "Her ability to hack isn't from the shear level of her tech, but from the fact that she is completely foreign." Naruto paused. "Nearly all tech in this galaxy use a sort of universal coding as the basis for its programming, as such most tech here has encryptions that have that core programming in mind, after all it's what everyone uses. Sakura's coding is completely different, then she has full knowledge of this galaxies coding. This added to the fact that she constantly finds ways to improve allows her to slip past almost any security without being detected unless she does something really stupid. I'm sure that if you wanted to keep information secret, one of the most basic steps you would take would be to use security that is based on coding that is complexly different." Again Aria sat silent in contemplation.
"Give me physical proof." she ordered.
"I have no way of proving what I say on me." Naruto said.
This cause Aria to stand up and begin powering up her biotics, giving her a purple aura. "Then there is nothing more to discuss." She said in finality.
"Hold on!" Sakura yelled. "I'm your proof."
This caused Aria's biotic field to die down before walking to Sakura, who was still floating around helplessly. "Well?"
"The nano tech that makes me up is way ahead of anything this galaxy has to offer. If you cut off a limb you'll see something that isn't possible with tech you're familiar with." Sakura said
Without another word, Sakura found one of her arms missing. "Well now, at least you're not a bitch." Sakura commented. "Most criminal lords would gun for the leg….so annoying." She said in amusement as Clear fluid slowly poured out where her arm used to be. Slowly, but surely a new arm reformed while Sakura's bust grew a little smaller. "Taa-daaaa" She drawled.
Aria didn't show it, but this made a believer out of her. While nano tech was there, the very concept of what Sakura did was far beyond tech she knew about. She looked at the arm that she cut off, floating around her singularity along with its owner. It didn't take long before it was in reach of Sakura, who quickly grabbed it before it floated out of her reach again. Aria watched another feat of nano tech, Sakura absorbed her severed arm back into herself. Aria dissipated her singularity, causing Sakura to fall to the ground. She walked behind Naruto and released him from his cuffs before sitting back down. "Alright. I believe your story." She said. "I have a few more questions for you, nothing big, just out of curiosity."
"What is it?" Naruto asked.
"Why save Liselle? I doubt you would help out of the goodness of your hearts."
"Very true." Naruto began. "There are two reasons we saved our agent. She was key in Cerberus' plan to get this station. Cerberus is rather interested in us, if they got managed to get hold of Omega they would effectively be breathing down my neck." Naruto said noticing a slight look of confusion on Aria's face. "I set up a base of operations a few systems out. Something I'm sure Cerberus will realize soon. I really didn't think it would be very good to let them squat so close to home you know?" Naruto said.
"And the other reason?" The leader of omega asked.
"To get in your good graces." Naruto answered simply. "To be more exact I was hoping you would be grateful and offer up a supply of water and oxygen for a year." Naruto admitted.
"Those things are easy enough to get. You'll have your supplies." Aria said. "I'll even throw in a little something extra."
"Oh?" Naruto asked curiously.
"I'll offer you jobs from time to time."
"What kind of jobs?" Naruto asked in suspicion.
"Judging by your reaction I'd say you're a boy scout like Shepard." Aria said in amusement.
"I'm willing to break a few eggs, but I draw the line at murder and smuggling." Naruto clarified.
"That's good. I wasn't planning on letting you do any of those things anyway." Aria said. "Simply put, I'll want you handle a few odd jobs. The first one being, the total scrubbing of my assets for bugs."
"Ahhhh."
"Your little friend seems to be very good at finding them. In my line of work, I'm sure you'll understand why I value my privacy."
"I can understand." Naruto admitted. "Consider it a deal. Sakura and I need to return to our base to finish the last bit of work. When we're done, I'll send Sakura over to start her sweeps."
At this Aria smiled. "Good, then I'll be going. There is still the mess that needs to be sorted out thanks to Cerberus." The asari said as she stated to leave.
"Wait a minute." Naruto called out, causing Aria to turn her attention to him. "I'm just really curious. Is your agent really that vital to your operations that her capture would hinder you enough for the likes of Cerberus to pressure you?" He asked.
After a long pause, Aria turned her attention back to the exit. "True, Liselle is my top agent, however my operations are not that reliant on her. Such a thing would be stupid." Aria explained as she continued to leave. "But I would tear entire stations apart for her for one simple reason, she is my daughter." She finished as she left.
"Wow I totally didn't pin her for being the motherly type." Sakura chuckled.
"Stranger things exist I guess." Naruto said as he got up. "Let's get outta here."
TIMESKIP: 2 DAYS LATER….
Aria had been true to her word. She provided a great deal of supplies that would be vital to the running of the POS. They still needed food and other necessities, but Aria's jobs will take care of those problems. Naruto was currently in his study reviewing information on biotics. He had a few ideas he was itching to try, but those would have to wait. He sighed in mild disappointment at the fact, it's been a long time since he had been in a situation like this; no means to even start projects. He'll need eezo and other materials, things that don't come cheap. Aria's little jobs won't be enough to support his projects. He still has time, he would have to momentarily but the issue of funs on the back burner.
"Sakura." He called.
"What is it?" She voiced over the comms.
"I think it's high time we got in contact with the federation." He started. "I've found something interesting and it would be good if they looked into it."
"Oh you mean-?"
"Yeah."
"I'll start making preparations."
ONE HOUR LATER…
"Everything is set Naruto." Sakura voiced over the comms.
"Good. Keep an eye on things." Naruto said as he activated the Inter-galactic comm.
The huge holographic monitor came to life. For the next 10 minutes, the display was blank, until Admiral Tsunade appeared on the screen. Immediately Naruto saluted. "Admiral, Captain Naruto Uzumaki reporting for duty."
"At ease Naruto." Tsunade said, causing Naruto to take on a more relaxed pose. "I'm glad to see the experimental comm is working."
"It's not without its issues." Naruto said in annoyance.
"Something I'm sure you can rectify in due time." The admiral paused. "What do you have to report?"
"The situation is here is shaky due to this impending reaper invasion." Naruto began. "What's sad is that no one is really taking it seriously. If the reapers have their way all advanced life in this galaxy will be wiped out. Only this commander Shepard and his crew understand the gravity of the situation since he actually spoke to one."
"So there is a disaster barreling down their faces and they won't take action?" The admiral asked.
"Not without proof." Naruto answered. "The leaders of the races of this galaxy won't even spear a little bit of time to properly investigate the matter." Naruto said as he started uploading information into the console. "It will take some time, but I'm sending you and more detailed info on the alien races, tech, and culture, and what little info that is known on the reapers you'll find it to be rather interesting.
Tsunade nodded in approval. "I'll review it as soon as it's received."
"Did you confront the top brass about what's going on here?" Naruto asked.
"I did. But their on the fence with this." she began. "Generally they want to offer help, however this isn't a matter that really concerns us. If we help our forces will be weakened, something the Caldari and Amarr would quickly take notice in."
"What about the Minmatar?"
"They are on the same boat."
"I'll admit there are possible risks, but we can't overlook the advantages of helping our home galaxy out." Naruto argued. "This galaxy has all sorts of unheard of theories and tech. We can learn a great deal from each other. Then there is the possibility of trade, which can put Gallante economic dominance to even greater heights."
"That was mentioned, but the fact still remains. We can't spear extra ships and soldiers for that war when we know for certain our enemies will see us as weak and attack." Tsunade reaffirmed. "However, we are considering bringing this to the attention to the Caldari and Amarr themselves. If they are willing to help as well, then we'll all be fairly equal in terms of strength while this war goes on.
At this Naruto took on a thinking pose. "Hmmmm that will work."
"You seem rather sure of yourself." Tsunade said. "There hasn't be an alliance with the four major nations since Sansha's little uprising. "What makes you so sure they'll be willing to join?"
"For one, the info you'll receive will motivate them to help. However, more than anything, pride and fear will make them join the fight. Their technological superiority and mass numbers which has keep us at a stalemate for hundreds of years could be broken if they feel that we would be regarded as heroes of sort in this galaxy and we receive help from here as a show of gratitude "
"True." Tsunade said thoughtfully. "At any rate, it will take time to get the Caldari and Amarr to meet with us. In the mean time curry favor where ever you can, build relationships, and continue gathering Intel."
"Understood."
"Is there anything else?"
"Well if you don't mind, I'd like to know what happened during my absence." Naruto answered.
"Nothing much to be honest. Your little corporation has been doing well and has garnered quite a rep for taking on the dangers of wormhole space." Tsunade said. "Their findings have helped the federation greatly, but they want their boss back."
"I see. That's good to hear. I knew leaving Hinata and Sai in charge would have good results."
"As for New Eden as a whole, the only real change would be CONCORD's lifting of the planetary restrictions on capsuleers. Meaning if you were to return, you would be able to build your own facilities to exploit resources on planets. Because of this, advances in ground weaponry have been made. Your corporation has taken full advantage of this."
At this Naruto got a little bit irked. "Sure could use more guns and resources about now." He said dejectedly.
At this Tsunade chuckled. "I figured as much. I sent a few blueprints for our new gear. You'll be able to make something even with your current equipment."
"I appreciate it." Naruto said.
"I hope you aren't stirring too much trouble over there."
"Me?" Naruto asked jokingly. "Why I've only meddled in a borderline terrorist organization's affairs once so far and got interrogated by one of this galaxy's top crime lords." He laughed.
At this Tsunade sighed. "You know what? I'm not even going to bother asking for details. You have your orders, I'll be making contact when we have anything new to report. Tsunade out." She finished cutting off communications.
"Well that was fun." Naruto commented. "Sakura, get everything up and running again. And while you're at it, activate the assembly array and begin assembling the Venture class frigate."
"Alright." Sakura drawled.
"Sakura!"
"What?"
"I expect the frigate to be assembled PROERLY." Naruto said, knowing Sakura would fiddle with things to make the mining ship inoperable. Sakura didn't reply, but he could imagine her getting pissed.
Timeskip: 2 days later…
For the past 2 days, Naruto and Sakura had been staying at Omega, making good on their agreement with Aria. Naruto was having Sakura scan every nock and cranny of Aria's operations, so far with an alarming number bugs, something at infuriated Aria to no end. She said the bugs were the work of the shadow broker, the galaxy's top information broker. Aria, being a major player in the galaxy's underworld dealings is a prime target for any information broker looking to make serious credits. The broker had very clever ways of bugging Aria's operations, some of aria's own men were spying for the broker and they didn't even know. Naruto was seeing an opportunity in the making. He was fully capable of making a scanner that can pick up these devices, something he was sure Aria would be willing to buy, further bolstering his account. Currently, Naruto and Sakura were working in one of Aria's warehouses that held the supplies for the afterlife club. Their work was interrupted by a familiar face.
"Uzumaki." The voice called, getting Naruto's attention.
Turning around to the sound of the voice, Naruto's eyes met Liselle , Aria's daughter. "Well look who it is." He commented. "Here to keep an eye on us?" He asked.
"Hardly" The asari said, walking towards him. "I never got the chance to thank you properly for saving me."
"Heh go figure. You being the daughter of Aria, I didn't think you would be very incline to thank anyone." Naruto said, causing Liselle to frown. 'Oooh yeah, she's Aria's daughter alright.' The thought, seeing her look almost exactly like aria when she had that look on her face.
"When someone does right by me, I always make sure they are compensated." She said. "While mother already compensated you, I fell that I still have to offer something personally." She finished as he activated her Omni-tool. "There, I sent passes to the VIP section of afterlife to you. Feel free to unwind after stressful mission runs."
"Thanks, we'll be sure to." Naruto thanked.
"Now if you don't mind, I'm up to my ass in work. So I'll be on my way." Liselle said as she left.
Sakura opened her Omni-tool and looked at the pass. "Well, I doubt I'd have much interest in this. But I suppose it's the thought that counts." She commented. "Hmm, kinda funny she gave me one. I was expecting something like 'Sakura's an A.I she doesn't need this.'"
"It's most likely honor more than anything. Both her and Aria seem to have some basic sense of it." Naruto explained.
"At any rate you have a pass to the VIP area of afterlife. Why don't you go there and kick back a bit?" Sakura suggested. "You haven't really taken a break since waking up in this galaxy. I'll finish up here and head back to our little apartment."
Naruto thought about it for a few moments before agreeing. "Alright then. I'm off. Be sure to behave yourself." He said as he left.
"Yeah yeah."
It didn't take Naruto long to find the VIP section. He walked up to the door and was immediately stopped by a turian guard. "Let me see your pass." He said. Naruto complied, opening his Omni-tool to show his pass. "Alright, you're free to go. Enjoy yourself but keep out of trouble."
Naruto entered the club, music blasting loudly while all sorts of alien races danced to their hearts content, including paid asari dancers, who danced on poles high atop a structure in the center of the club. Upon entering, Naruto noticed an asari being harassed by a turian.
"I said I'm not interested!" The asari said.
"Come on babe, stop playing hard to get."
At this point Naruto intervened. "Hey how about leaving her be?" Naruto asked.
"And who are you? The turian asked. "I saw her first."
"She clearly has no interest in you." Naruto began. "It's really making you look bad." Naruto paused, seeing his words where getting to the turian's head. "Besides, look around. There's plenty of game for a guy to hunt." Naruto chuckled, causing the turian to chuckle in return.
"I suppose you're right." He said as he turned back to the asari. "If you ever get bored, look me up babe." he said coolly then left.
"Thank you." The asari said. The guy was so thick headed.
"It's not problem." Naruto said, making his way to the bar but bumped into a batarian, causing him to stumble back.
"Damn human!" He sneered.
"Sorry about that." Naruto said.
"Empty your pockets!" The batarian demanded.
"What?"
"You heard me!. You humans are all thieves!" He accused. "Empty your pockets so I can see what you took from me!"
"Look I'm not about to entertain your demand." Naruto said in mild annoyance as he started to walk off.
"Don't you turn your back to me!" The batarian demanded, grabbing Naruto by his shoulder and violently spinning him around. "Do as I say or I'll make you regret it." He threatened.
Naruto stood there with his arms folded in mild amusement. "Try it." He dared.
The batarian lunged at him with his fist pulled back, intending to punch the blonde with all his might. Naruto simply side stepped and grabbed the batarian by the arm and threw him to the ground. By this time, a Turian guard had appeared. "What's going on here?" He demanded.
"This human stole from me!" The batarian accused.
"I didn't. We just bumped into each other and then he immediately accused me of stealing because I'm human." Naruto defended.
"Then why won't you empty your pockets to prove it?"
"You're a moron. As if I would do something so stupid in Omega." Naruto countered as he looked at one of the batarian' pockets. "Hey what's that?" Naruto pointed at a locket dangling from the batarian's pocket. "That's my locket!" Naruto said in outrage.
"What?" The batarian said in confusion.
"That is my locket! It's the only thing I have to remember my family and friends! Return it now!" At this, the turian took the locket and looked at it.
"Can you prove it's yours?" He asked.
"Just press the button on the side." Naruto said.
The turian did as told and immediately a hologram of Naruto and his mother and father popped up. "Well now this is interesting. You accuse this human of stealing but you stole from him?" The turian asked as he shoved his rifle at the batarian, causing him to fall to the ground. "Here's your locket back." He said handing it to the blonde. "And you!" He said turning his attention back to the batarian. "You know the rules. Your time here is done." He finished as pulled him to his feet and dragged him out the club.
"I didn't do anything! That human! He must have planted it on me!" The alien protested. As they left, Naruto smirked as he pocketed his locket. 'Serves you right bastard.' He thought as he resumed his march to the bar, only for him to be interrupted again. This time by an asari.
"Hello there." The asari called.
"Me?" Naruto asked causing the asari to lightly laugh.
"Yes, you. I like the way you handled that batarian. Real clever and classy."
"Oh you saw that huh?" Naruto asked. "I tend to avoid up front confrontation if I can. More often than not, a little finesse and quick thinking can solve most problems."
"Hmmm so true." The asari said. "My name is Morinth, why won't you sit with me?" She offered.
"Why me?" Naruto asked jokingly. "I'm the most boring guy here." He said following her to her table.
"On the contrary." Morinth began. "You are the most interesting individual in this entire club." Taking a seat.
"Oh?"
"Yes. You are not like most people here on Omega. You are clearly a soldier of some sort, yet you give off a sense of refinement that is out of place around here. Then there's your hair color. It's very rare among humans in this day and age."
"You are rather observant. Are you some sort of solider or something yourself?" Naruto asked.
"Of course not." Morinth said. "But I do know how to handle myself in a fight, I'm not a soldier. I am an asari, I can live for over a thousand years, after a while many of us gain an eye for observation."
"It makes sense I suppose." Naruto began. "But honestly, I doubt a resident of Omega, even an asari would find me interesting. Yes I'm a soldier, but I'm also a scientist and engineer with a liking for stuff like art." Naruto said, immediately noticing a certain gleam in Morinth's eye.
"Art you say?" She asked. "What kind?"
At this, Naruto opened his Omni-tool and showed Morinth several works of art by artists from his home galaxy. Something that caused her to look at the images in wonder. "I never have seen anything like these." She said in amazement.
Naruto opened up a file with different paintings and sculptures that were not finished. "And these, are works I started." Naruto said.
"These look impressive. The painting looks beautiful." She said. "I don't think I've ever seen a painting of a station with a nebula in the back ground and the ships! They look so different. They make the painting come alive. You must have quite the imagination to think up such scenery." Morinth commented, obviously not knowing that the painting was in fact based from a place in another galaxy.
"You seem rather interested in art." Naruto commented.
"Yes it's one of my passions. I have a modest collection at my apartment." Morinth said. "You should come and see it."
"I get the feeling you have other motives than showing me art." Naruto said, causing Morinth to stand up and walk up to him.
"Perhaps." She stated. "I do want you to see it, but I also want to get you." She said suggestively, sitting on Naruto's lap. "I'm so bored of these brutes around here." She continued as she ran a cupped hand on Naruto's cheek. "Have you ever been with an asari before?" She asked.
"Can't say I have." He answered. "But I am curious I admit."
"Come. I'll give you an experience to die for." Morinth said getting up and leading Naruto to her apartment.
Upon arriving, Naruto immediately took notice of Morinth's collection of art. Naruto was impressed by what he saw. Morinth gave in depth info on each work. It was at this time Naruto realized that Morinth truly loved art. She spoke with passion in each work. When they were done, they sat on the couch, with Morinth sitting on Naruto's lap.
"I believe it's time to get to the other reason we're here." She said as she held the sides of Naruto's face in her hands. Their lips drew closer and closer until finally, Naruto couldn't take it anymore. He connected, causing Morinth to moan lightly and wrap her arms around his neck. She closed her eyes momentarily and opened them back, revealing jet black eyes. At this time, Naruto felt overwhelming pleasure flood his body. He could barely contain himself. But suddenly, he felt something wrong, something very wrong. At first there was pleasure and an overpowering feeling of joy, but it all suddenly stopped. He watched as Morinth continued to kiss him, but he could no longer move. Morinth pulled away, looking deep into his eyes. "You're still in there?" She asked. "I knew you were different. No one as ever managed to stay alive this long with me." She finished smiling seductively as she gave Naruto short, but deep kiss. "I'm going to get as much mileage as I can out of you." She said, skillfully removing Naruto's shirt and her own, revealing perfectly round breasts. "It's never been so intense!" She exclaimed as she rested Naruto's body down on the couch before kissing him again, this time pressing her body hard onto his, Wanting as much contact as possible.
This went on for another 10 minutes before Naruto's breath became Erratic. His body convulsed violently under Morinth's before his life was extinguished. Seeing Naruto was now dead, Morinth sat up, still saddling his waist. She smirked as she examined his face, bringing her face close to his, she spoke. "I don't think I'll ever get a high like that again. I actually feel bad for not saving some of you for later." She finished as she got up and made her way to the shower.
MEANWHILE AT THE POS….
Deep in the structure, several large pods full with clear fluid were lined off against the wall. One of the pods opened, releasing a moderate amount of liquid as a body fell out. The person coughed up a lung full of fluid before slowly getting up. This person was none other than Naruto, who looked around, utterly confused, and completely naked. "What….the….fuck?"
A/N: I'm betting the ending has some people starching their heads hoping you guys like this. This chapter wasn't very exciting but it's needed for story development:/
On another note: I made a small change in the previous chapter. I said that a frigate in ME was about as big as a cruiser in EVE. This turns out to be false. The devs of ME didn't give very detailed info as for as the size of their ships go with their dreads being the only ship they provided info on. But someone pointed out that the Normandy (Frigate) is in fact 200 meters or so, which puts it in line with a destroyer in eve (smaller than an eve cruiser but still bigger than their frigates). I don't know who it that pointed this out, but I think you for telling me. Sadly, I deleted your review because you said something that could take away some of the surprise in the later chapters. Don't take it personally, I'm just really picky that way:P
Until next time, happy reading!
