TUAOA: Naruto: A New Dawn
Chapter 3: Reentry
Going through the space was the Liberty as it was heading for Earth right now. Inside the Liberty War Room were Tsunade, Rikudo and Kakashi. They were in a video conference with General of the Gaia Federation, General Hiruzen, who wanted to know of their situation.
"The Liberty is safe, except the colony we were using was attacked by Orochi force, and destroyed." Tsunade said as Hiruzen took in this grim news as a Colony can never be replaced since hundreds and thousands of lives were lost.
"This is just another atrocity that Orochi commits in the so call name of freedom." Hiruzen said in a depress tone of voice.
"Only 4 Mobiles Suits were saved, each of the original designs which we built at the colony." Kakashi spoke up.
"I'm a bit confused why Space Fortress Kumo didn't help out at all. I mean all this could have been avoided." Hiruzen said over the video feed.
"A decided he didn't need the Gaia federation, and used the Mega DV System to create 1000 Mobile Suits," answered Dr. Rikudo Dias, "And when the soldiers under his command didn't join him, he threw them into the brig and uploaded the Mobile Doll program into the old Zaku's."
"What in the world was A thinking!" Hiruzen said with barely contain anger.
"I believe he was just a warlord in the making and never was in our cause in the first place." Tsunade said
"So is A being detained?" Hiruzen asked
"Pfft, hell no, he's been vaporized," answers Dias, "courtesy of one Uzumaki Naruto."
"Who is this Uzumaki Naruto. I don't have him as a activate member of the Gaia Federation?" Hiruzen said.
"And you won't. He's a civilian who took over the Kyuu Gundam and manage to destroy Soldat and A modified Zaku's." Dias said.
"And I guess there are other civilian pilots as well?" Hiruzen asked, since one thing he find's troubling is Civilian pilots.
"Three others to be exact," added Kakashi.
"Hinata Hyuga, Hanabi Hyuga, and a Konohamaru Sarutobi," Dias said as Hiruzen eye widen in shock.
"My grandson is piloting a mobile suit!?" Hiruzen shouted in complete shock.
"He is a natural at it, just to let you know General." Kakashi said.
"I don't care about that, how is Konohamaru doing anyway?" Hiruzen asked.
"He is doing very fine, so don't worry at all." Dias said.
"Alright, I want you to go into re-entry." Hiruzen said.
They all saluted Hiruzen Sarutobi and said, "SIR, YES SIR!"

After informing the crew of their intentions, they launched all their available Mobile Suits, in case they were attacked during re-entry. Naruto who was inside the Kyu Gundam, which is equipped with the Flight Mission pack as the mobile suit was standing next to Hinata Tenshi Gundam, Konohamaru had the Striker and Hanabi was back in the Rozen.
Standing with the group was the Vayeate II and Mercurius II, which were piloted by both Samui and Karui. Kakashi in his Tallgeese III was standing next to Sasuke Efreet Rache, and Sasame was in her Soldat as was painted in a white color. All of the mobile suits were standing on various part of the Liberty.
"Kakashi, is re-entry really that dangerous?" Naruto asked.
"Yes, it is, since we will be put on a time limit." Kakashi replied
"If any of our mobile suits try to go into re-entry by themselves the massive amount of heat will either destroy the MS completely or cook the pilot alive inside." Sasuke spoke up.
"Also Liberty won't be able to open up its hanger up if it enter re-entry. Since the heat will go inside and destroy the ship from the inside out. So all of you have a short window to get back inside before we make a final approach." a weird female voice said.
"Wait a second who is this?" Naruto asked very confuse.
"By the tone of her voice it doesn't sound human." Hinata commented.
"My name is EDI the Liberty's Super AI, I operate all the functions of the ship, and I'll be your communication officer for this operation." EDI replied.
"I'm detecting a large number of warships nearby and one civilian vessel as well." EDI said.
"What is that civilian vessel?" Dias asked over the radio.
"It is a Silverwind-Class vessel." EDI commented.
"The Princess, and Songstress of the Orochi is here?" Dias asked in complete confusion. This was odd, why would a Songstress and Orochimaru's only child be anywhere near a potential battlefield? He knew something was off about this, he could feel it in his gut.
"EDI check each of the enemy Battleships that are in the area, what emblem do they have?" Dias asked the Super A.I
"They each have a Tiger Emblem on their hull." EDI reported.
"That's Mizuki the Backstabber's Fleet." Dias growled in anger, this doesn't make sense at all.
"We are detecting two heat signatures approaching it requesting to land on the Liberty hull." EDI commented.
"So, what's your call captain?" Dias asked.
"Let them landed aboard. If that is Princess Hebihime ship out there she won't let any battle happen nearby here." Tsunade said as the two MS landed on the Liberty Hull right next to the Liberty Mobile Suit group. One of the Mobile Suit was a rare AMS-120X-S Geara Doga Psycommu System; its appearance is reminiscent of the Sazabi.
"What this other Mobile Suit?" Naruto asked as he got a good look at it. Its outward appearance looks like that of human female in golden armor. Naruto got a good look at the MS face which look like a women face as he took notice the expression change on it in a slight ripple. Naruto took notice of the weird tiara like head design on top of the MS has a hidden mono-camera in it. Naruto can see the name of the Mobile Suit is called Princess Diona. The Princess Diona also has a pink hair which if one looks closely looked like it has some kind of energy going through it. Also the face looked similar to Princess Hebihime face which Dias remember seeing on the new once when they show her face.
"Don't get all worked up Naruto, that MS face design is some kind of advance face mask and Nano machine technology, it's not really flesh." Dias said over the com.
"Hello, I am Princess Hebihime, are you the representatives of the Gaia Federation for the peace conference?" Hebihime asked as there was big confusion among the crew.
"Eh, Princess Hebihime, what you mean about peace conference?" Dias asked as he didn't hear anything about a peace conference happening.
"Mizuki told me that father wanted me to negotiate a peace treaty with the Gaia Federation." Hebihime said.
"Mizuki even has his majesties signature to prove it." the pilot of the Geara Doga Psycommu system type said as it sound like a female voice.
Dias crossed his arms and closed his eyes, signifying he was deep in thought. Five seconds later he spoke, "can you fax me a copy of the document? I'd like to check the authenticity of this document."
An enormous energy reading was picked up on everyone's scanners before they could send the request. Knowing they'd been tricked, Dias activated the Liberty's Planetary Defenser, insuring everyone's survival.
The ship shook violently, but sustained no damage. "I knew something wasn't right," growled Dias as he got to his feet, "Mizuki didn't show you this supposed document, did he?"
Hebihime lowered her head in shame as she began to tear up, how could she have been so naive!?
Princess Hebihime's Bodyguard on the other hand, was trembling with rage. "That bastard, I'LL FUCKING KILL HIM!" She screamed as she took off, fully intent upon killing Mizuki.
Soon hundreds of Soldat started launching out of the various Razor-Class battleship, and converged on Sliverwind, destroying it.
"No!" Hebihime shouted in shock as she see her ship being destroyed as she flew off to her ship. The Soldat soon started advancing on the Liberty.
"Everyone repel all of the attackers and keep Princess Hebihime and her bodyguard safe as well." EDI said, she figured out what Mizuki is planning. In killing Princess Hebihime, Orochimaru, the leader of Orochi, would order a massive invasion on Earth as a revenge against the death of his daughter.
"Naruto, Hinata, you two will protect Princess Hebihime's Mobile Suit; make sure nothing bad happens to her. Konohamaru, Sasame and Hanabi keep the enemy Soldat's away from the ship. Samui and Karui take out any warship that would be in the Liberty's re-entry pathway. Sasuke, you're with me, we're going to rescue that bodyguard." Kakashi ordered as he took aim at one of the Razor-Class and opened fired with the Tallgeese III Mega-Cannon, destroying an entire column of Mobile Suits along with the Razor-Class.
The Liberty started opening fire with its weaponry, targeting several of the Razor-Class with their various beam cannons, and the Soldat's with their missiles.
"I wonder why we got stuck guarding the ship," Asked Hanabi as she unleash her high funnel which were devastating the approaching Soldat's. She then took notice of a different Soldat type approaching the ship. These were fitted with massive cannon on their backs and various missile pods on their bodies, and were carrying a Bazooka.
"Those are Panzer Soldat's," said Sasame over the Comm, "the most effective way to destroy one is in close quarters."
Sasuke asked, "What's the catch?"
Sasame sighed and said, "You have to get past a barrage of missiles, rockets, and bazooka rounds."
"Well I'm not going to let them get close at all!" Hanabi shouted as she sent several of her High Funnel at Panzer Soldat's, causing damage some of them, meaning they had heavier armor.
Konohamaru made his Striker move away from the Liberty, and charged at the Panzer Soldats with his Beam Glavie activated, and sliced three of them in half in a row. "I'm going to make sure these guys don't get a shot off at all." Konohamaru said as he started attacking the Panzers, which then started firing at him, but the Striker was too fast for the Panzer horde.
Xxxxxx
Tenshi and Kyuu Gundam were racing toward the Princess Diona with little resistance, thanks to Hinata, who already unleashed her feathered funnels. Naruto locked onto several of them before the pods on the Flight Pack opened up, unleashing a barrage of laser which some of the Soldat's try to dodge but the laser actually change direction and struck there targets.
"I can't believe the Princess Diona is taking all of this punishment!" Naruto said as he did saw a missile from a Soldat stuck the odd mecha but it was largely undamaged as it lifted up a custom beam rifle and fired, destroying the offending Soldat. Naruto then took notice of several Soldats approaching very fast. These are the Schneider Soldat's, which were design for close quarters combat. They were designed to bring a bladed death since they have various close combat weapons on their bodies. The Princess Diona stopped in its tracks and opened fire on the Schneider Soldat's units.
"Stay back!" Princess Hebihime shouted over the comm as two of her shot struck home.

Tayuya had managed to get through the bulk of Mizuki's forces, but was quickly overwhelmed by the sheer quantity of Soldat's.
Kakashi and Sasuke found themselves in a similar position, except they were fighting back to back.
"GODDAMIT," Tayuya screamed in anger. Despite having the superior Mobile Suit, she couldn't destroy the bastards Mobile Suit's fast enough. She was considering using the self-destruct device in an attempt to at least cripple Mizuki's forces when a massive energy reading showed up on her scanners.
In the twinkling of an eye, all the enemies barring her path were completely destroyed as a man with an easygoing attitude asked, "Need a hand?" Joining the fight was a specially designed version of the infamous Gundam Wing ZERO. It had a black paint job, with blood red wings, and was carrying a Twin Buster Rifle. The Pilot separated the weapon, and activated a special function that turned the two individual Buster Rifles into a set of beam sabers.
The Pilot spoke again, a lust for battle filled his voice, "Let's see what you got." As the Black Wing ZERO charged forward slicing into several of the attacking Soldat's, several of the Schneider's approached with there arm-mounted anti-ship blades activated, and engaged the Black Wing ZERO in combat. Plasma Blades met Beam Blades as more of the Close Combat type approach Black Wing ZERO from all sides, only to be eviscerated by Tayuya's sonic weaponry and funnels.
Xxxxx
Samui fired her Vayeate II's Beam cannon; the blast engulfed several Razor-Class battleships destroying them. Both she and Karui were clearing the way for the Liberty. Samui was attacking from long range, while Karui was using her Mobile Suit Breaker Blade to cleave through several of the attacking Soldat's.
"That makes thirty of them!" Karui said as she kept on slicing through the various enemy mobile suits.
"I'm detecting an odd electromagnetic anomaly?" Samui said as she fired another shot from her beam cannon.
"You do, is it from a nuke exploding?" Karui asked as she cleaved another Soldat in half.
"No, it seems to be coming from two directions, one from that odd Razor-Class ship with the odd attachment to it. The other signal is seems to be massive almost half the size of colony and twice as long.
"It must be background radiation, just keep blasting all the ship in the Liberty path." Karui said as suddenly both of them took notice of odd Razor-Class was moving.
"That's strange, it's moving away from the fleet?" Samui commented.
"It must be running away." Karui responded.
Xxxxx
Tenshi and Kyuu Gundam finally managed to catch up with the Princess Diona, and were dragging her back to the Liberty with them. Naruto took notice of something approaching the group. It seems to be an Orange Colored Soldat fit for high mobility. It was Jaguar Soldat Mizuki custom.
"Just give me the princess." Mizuki said, he was a man with white hair and twisted look on his face.
"You murdered my crew!" Hebihime shouted as she turn her Mobile Suit around in both Tenshi and Kyuu Gundam grip and fired her beam rifle at one of Mizuki's thruster units, causing him to spiral out of control away from the group.
Xxxxx
The pilot of the Black Wing ZERO had caught wind of Samui and Karui's conversation, and took a good look at it. "You gotta be shitting me, THAT BASTARD HAS A NUKE!?"
Tayuya froze upon hearing this, such weapons were banned! The Black Wing ZERO shot off to intercept the ship, and she followed him.
Xxxxx
Sasuke had gotten separated from Kakashi, and was now in deep trouble. Even though he was a better pilot than the opposition, they made up for it with their superior numbers. He felt his suit shake from a minor hit and yelled in frustration, "GOD DAMMIT!"
Xxxxx
On the other side, a woman with raven black hair drifted through the cosmos. She had died in battle some time ago, and has been stuck in a state of eternal consciousness, a unique kind of hell. She was torn from her thoughts when she felt that her youngest son was in grave danger, "There has to be something I can do to help, but what?"
After a moment's thought she realized she had one that, in all honesty, was absolutely perfect, "Just hold on Sasuke, I'll be there soon."
Xxxxx
Sasuke mobile suit was being bombard by bullets round, and though he managed to skewer one of the attacking Soldat's with his blade he was getting overwhelmed. He suddenly felt an explosion hit from the back as he look back as he see a Soldat holding a Bazooka, along with several other Soldat holding bazookas, he was done for.
"No my son, don't give up hope." a female voice said as Sasuke Efreet Rache glowed brightly. Which temporary blinded the surrounding Soldat's. Soon all of them heard an female voice in the vacuum of space which was odd since there isn't that much noise in space.
"EXAM SYSTEM, standby!" the female voice said as Efreet Rache came out of the light as it eye was glowing red as it started hacking through the Soldat's. A Schneider tried to engage the Efreet Rache, but was destroyed effortlessly, like it was being piloted by a new type.
"What in the world is happen-arrgghh!" one of the Soldat pilot cried out as his mobile suit was destroyed.
"The Efreet Rache is piloting itself?" Sasuke said in great shock as he watch is mobile suit effortless cut down another Soldat down.
"What in the world is the EXAM SYSTEM?" Sasuke asked as he did saw his battle computer change before his very eye.
Xxxxx
Tayuya was struggling to keep up with the Black Wing ZERO when her worst fear was realized: the Razor-class had begun atmospheric re-entry. "FUCKING HELL, NOW THERE'S NO STOPPING IT!"
"We'll see about that," he growled as he hit his boosters, blasting ahead of the ship.
Once the pilot had gotten past the Razor-class, he turned the Wing ZERO around and pointed the combined Twin Buster Rifle at the ship, "EAT SHIT MOTHER FUCKER!" The blast completely vaporized the ship.
Seeing that his task is complete, he went to activate the heat shield, but was interrupted by his scanners picking up a signal that had gone past the point of no return. He asked his own self a question in his head, 'What the hell was she thinking when she followed me?'
Xxxxx
Tayuya was cursing herself for following that fool like she did, and now they were both dead. She closed her eyes and waited for her death, but they snapped back open when she felt her suit shake. To her horror and amazement, the Black Wing ZERO had wrapped its arms and wings around her Suit.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?"
"Since I have a heat shield, I'd say I'm saving your life," the pilot said nonchalantly.
Tayuya would have cussed the man out, had it not been for the sudden cooling sensation she felt. She then face palmed and mentally berated herself for not realizing that sooner.
Xxxxx
Mizuki was still spiraling out of control, trying to get his mobile suit under control, before he decided to cut power to the remaining thrusters. Finally, Mizuki's mobile suit stopped its chaotic spin.
"Commander look out!" one of the Soldat pilot said with terror in his voice. Mizuki mobile suit look back.
"What the fuc-"
KAAABBBOOOOMM!
Mizuki's MS exploded, devoured by a massive entity that was in shape of a Japanese or Chinese dragon. The thing was massive almost as big as a colony and twice as long. The thing had a disturbing bio-mechanical appearance. It appearance was just a pure sense of wrongness on a whole level.
"That thing has a body heat and a heartbeat." EDI simply said.
Dias turned to Tsunade and said, "Tsunade, I'd suggest we cut our losses and run."
"Agreed, we haven't lost anyone yet, and I'd like to keep it that way," Tsunade muttered before shouting, "ALL MOBILE SUITS RETURN TO SHIP IMMEDIATELY."
Dias turned on his headset, "Princess Hebihime, my name is Dr. Rikudo Dias, and I'm willing to offer you a ride on the Liberty, I promise you will be treated fairly. Your only other alternative is being eaten by a space dragon, do you accept?"
There was silence throughout the ship and the comm's for a whole fifteen seconds before she replied, "Permission to come aboard?"
Tsunade smiled at how polite the girl is, "Permission granted, welcome aboard, Princess Hebihime."
Xxxx
Inside the mobile suit hanger, Hebihime stepped out of the cockpit of her Princess Diona. She's average height, with womanly features that resemble her late mother, Queen Adderia. She was wearing a pink and gold mobile trace system outfit since she removed her helmet already. She has lived a sheltered life, which is surprising since she is twenty years old.
She noticed the other pilots exiting their Mobile Suit's and were all staring at her. She was a bit surprised by this, but soon recovered and formally introduced herself, "Hello, I'm Hebihime."
"I'm Naruto."
"Names Sasuke, and the man in the mask," jabbing his thumb at his senior officer, "is Kakashi."
Kakashi waved his hand and said, "Yo."
"I'm Karui and the blonde with the second biggest set of chesticles in the room is Samui."
Samui simply rolled her eyes.
Konohamaru walked up to her and extended his hand, "Konohamaru, nice to meet ya."
"I'm Hanabi, and this," grabbing her sister's arm, "is my sister Hinata."
Hebihime was amazed at how relaxed these people were, despite the fact they were about to enter the atmosphere. "Would one of you be so kind as to escort me to the bridge," Hebihime asked timidly, she wasn't used to others being so openly friendly.
Xxxxx
Soon everyone was on the bridge as Joker was piloting the ship through re-entry along with the aid of EDI. Dias took notice of the group that enter the room as Tsunade was looking at a monitor that was Liberty rear camera as she was watching the Space Dragon devour more of Orochi forces. She was shock something like that exist and was glad it was not following them.
"That thing is alive, though it doesn't seem possible." Tsunade said.
"This is something similar to D.G. Cell's, yet it's completely different, since I can see a lot of organic elements in it. If only I could get a sample, but that thing is massive and I don't think we could take it on," Dias mumbled.
"I more worried about the fact it's so close to earth." Tsunade said as she then took notice of everyone else.
Dias shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't think it'll attempt to enter the atmosphere, since there's a good chance it would be burned alive." He then turned to the pilots, "Alright, I want you guys to tell me everything that happened from your point of view, and make sure you spare no details."
Naruto was confused and asked, "You saw what happened, so why should we have to do that?"
Dias gave the boy a piercing look, "There's a big difference between observations, and firsthand accounts kid. You were up close and personal with what was going on, while the rest of us were here." He took a deep breath as he looked for the right way to put this, "Information is vital to any war effort, and reliable information is all it takes to make a potential catastrophe into a resounding success."
Naruto thought about what the man said before nodding, before bringing up the one thing that caught his attention, "The main thing I noticed is the Princess Diona. It was getting hit by almost everything the enemy had, but came out completely unscratched," he turned to Hebihime and asked, "What's that thing made of anyway?"
Hebihime sighed in exasperation before saying, "Papa is extremely overprotective, and had the Princess Diona built to be near indestructible, he even went as far as to insure that it would be able survive a direct hit from a colony laser."
Everyone paled upon hearing this, "YOU MEAN THE GUY BUILT A COLONY LASER!?"
Hebihime tilted her head to the side, "Is that a bad thing?"
Dias massaged his temples before explaining, "A colony laser is a WMD, which is an acronym for the term weapon of mass destruction." He gave her a look that was harder than steel, "It's a tool of genocide, and should be destroyed."
Hebihime looked at the floor and said, "It's not operational at the moment, I heard that there are a lot of issues they're trying to work out."
Everyone visibly relaxed, letting out a breath they weren't even aware they were holding, "At least you meat bags don't have to worry about being vaporized anytime soon," commented EDI.
"By the looks of it, I'd say that thing's not even paying us any attention." Joker said.
"I agree with beef cake," Said EDI.
"That is true so plus those Orochi Soldat are keeping it distracted, but I'm kind of amazed none of them are bothering to run." Kakashi said as he saw another Soldat get devoured.
"I think it because even if they run it'll just follow them." Sasame replied she knows it's one of the rules of Orochi: If the enemy will keep finding you, take them out or die trying.
Dias walked up to the drink machine he had installed and got a root beer. He cracked it open and asked, "Anything else," then took a sip.
Sasuke asked, "What's the EXAM System?"
Dias was caught off guard by this question, and was choking on his drink, forcing him to spit it out. "Why do you ask?" he rasped out.
"Because, when I thought for sure I was done for, something strange happened, and then I hear a woman's voice say, 'EXAM System, standby!' so I'd like to know what's the EXAM System?"
Dias ran his fingers through his hair and explained, "The EXAM System, A.K.A the EXAM Newtype Simulation Control System is a specialized combat support system designed to mimic the power of Newtypes, increasing the pilot's abilities and performance." Dias took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a drag before continuing, "It requires the soul of a Newtype to work properly."
Sasuke stood there frozen by what he had heard before asking, "Is there a way to determine the identity of the Newtype?"
Dias nodded and said, "EDI, I'd like you to run a system analysis on the Efreet Rache, see if you can find a way to communicate with this Newtype."
"Will do, and FYI, I took notice that we're slightly off course with our re-entry vector." EDI commented as everyone looked at her in shock.
Dias then asked, "Can you calculate where we'll be when we're done EDI?"
"One moment dad," answered EDI, making the good doctor blush in embarrassment, while mumbling something AI's thinking of him as a parent. "Looks like we'll be right smack dab in the middle of Orochi controlled territory, meaning you're all fucked."
Dias chuckled and said, "History repeats itself once more, EDI, download all files concerning the White Base of the One Year War to my data pad."
"Sure thing dad," EDI then began putting the information into Dias' data pad, knowing exactly what he had in mind.
"Hey I see a huge bird outside?" Naruto said as he saw something huge go into the cloud as everyone else looked out the windows of Liberty as the heat shuttered open up.
"I don't see any bird plus what kind of bird would be up in this height anyway?" Sasuke responded.
"But you got to believe me I saw a giant bird." Naruto said as he thought the bird look odd.
"I believe you Naruto-kun." Hinata simply said as she though she felt an odd presence among the cloud but it disappeared. Everyone then took notice the Liberty was slowly down.
"Okay, steady now girl." Joker said as he reduced the Liberty speed as they kept on going downward.
"Well this is a successful landing." Tsunade commented as she can see the ground below them and Liberty was hovering around now up in the sky.
"I'm not detecting any Orochi signal in the area. But oddly I did briefly detect something with several heartbeat signals." EDI commented.
"So where are we at?" Hanabi asked.
"We are over the United States of America which is now occupied by Orochi forces." Dias commented.
Kage Bijuu Author Note: Well here is chapter three of my New Dawn story. And all of you took of the new addition to the crew. The Princess of Orochi and Songstress. Hebihime and her usual Mobile Suit called Princess Diona. But they made it to earth and Mizuki Fleet is being devoured by a giant space dragon.
