Ch. 7: An Immortal's Dream (Pieces, and Places II)
Yo I wanted to try my hand at a war segment
There aren't that many people who knew what life was like in the trenches, at least not that that many left alive. The air around the soldiers was pungent, and with each breath came the scent of disease, vomit, burnt flesh and the stench of rotting corpses burned their nostrils.
Naruto ducked down into the German trench, in front of him Gaara was firing his rifle at the Storm Troopers that were trying to storm across 'No-man's Land'.
"Hinata sure picked a great time and place to take her nap!" Naruto said as he loaded his rifle. The soldier next to him collapsed with a hole in his head.
"Doesn't matter, if they capture this village it won't take them long until they find her cocoon, and they might try and molest her in her sleep so until the war ends, or she wakes up, we shall defend this village." Gaara said as the last body hit the ground.
"Let's take a page out of their book then!" Naruto said as he ran and picked up the flame thrower the troopers dropped, behind him Gaara provided back up fire. "Happy New Year" Naruto said as he set the French Trench ablaze.
"Welcome to 1918" Gaara finished as he tossed a few grenades into the trench.
Naruto ran back towards town. Naruto unlocked the door as he headed into the wine vault. Inside he knelt before a dark gray cocoon. "Personally, I'd rather fight on the Allied Side, but since we lived here when you entered hibernation we had to fight for this country. When the war broke out we decided to become a part of the Western Front."
"What do we have here?!" The Admiral said as he stepped down the stairs.
Naruto reached behind a shelf and grabbed his swords hilt.
The Admiral pulled his gun out and shot Naruto in the chest. Naruto stumbled back til his back hit the wall. The Admiral continued to shoot Naruto until his clip ran out. Naruto's body slid to the ground as the Admiral walked to the cocoon. "So the wife who needed you was really just a freak in a cocoon. Though from the pictures I can see, she is a beaut. Even in her sleep I could please her in better ways than you. Now let's see why you love he-" the Admiral was interrupted by Naruto's hand around his neck.
"Only freaks can love freaks, as the saying goes." Naruto said as his blade went through the Admiral's heart. As the corpse fell, the other soldiers entered and riddled Naruto with gun fire. Naruto got to his feet when Hinata had awoken and burst from her cocoon.
"I barely wake up and you already have people trying to kill us?" Hinata asked as she grabbed a piece of metal
"It seems like that's the case." Naruto said as they killed the soldiers.
"Gaara!" Hinata yelled as said red head came down to the cellar.
"Finally awake?" Gaara said as he ripped off the uniform.
"Yeah, let's go!" Hinata said as they ran to the street. When they got there they saw bombs being dropped over the trenches by the allies.
"So that's why they fell back." Naruto said.
"Doesn't matter let's go!" Hinata said as they ran west.
"So, we're going to France now?" Gaara asked.
"Yeah." Hinata said as a giant insect-like creature burst from the ground.
The creature's head pivoted at unnatural angles; it had a long spinal fin that went down its back, a matte black hide covering its body, and a set of claws on all six of its legs.
"That's a big Chiropteran." Naruto said.
"Go for the legs first." Hinata said as they rushed forward.
Naruto dove beneath a swing from one of the legs and sliced through the connecting joint. With a quick spin he sliced off the stinger on the abdomen.
Gaara blocked a leg trying to impale him and sliced off most of it, he turned and used his tail to block and redirect a claw strike into the Chiropteran's Thorax.
Hinata rolled out of the way of the creatures jaws as it snapped a brick wall in half '!' 'I sense one of Sakura's Chevalier close by.' Hinata thought as she felt someone approach too fast to be on the ground.
---Skies---
A man with chin length black hair and a pale face looked below the clouds to see an oversized ant, "Sai to Sakura; targets found, initiating strike run." Sai said as he opened the bomb bay
---Ground---
All the combatants looked at the flying fortress approaching them as the two panels opened on the bottom. "A bomber!?"
"Gaara do you have any more of those special bullets?" Hinata asked as the Chiropteran's head exploded, "Shots fired!"
"To the Trenches! I'll load a few rounds while in them." Gaara said as he jumped into a pit.
"Wait, those aren't bombs." Hinata said as hundreds of Chiropterans landed on the ground.
"Alright it's loaded." Gaara said.
"This is Air Traffic control, we have an aircraft in a no fly zone; bring down the rain!"
"Roger!" Gaara said as he took aim.
---Aircraft---
Sai adjusted the controls as a streak of bright red caught his eye, "Balls." Sai said as his control panel exploded as the bullet ripped through his head.
The Chiropteran below looked up as they were crushed by the plane.
"I really hate guns." Gaara said.
