Author's notes: I bet you may have noticed the difference with the chapters, don't worry I didn't add anything new for Chapter 1 (except for this chapter because this chapter was suppose to be chapter 7). I made the chapters longer, and will continue that way. I hope you enjoy this chapter!
Review! It's my motivation!
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Code Grass
Naruto remembered his past well, and couldn't help but smile softly at the memory.
It all started with a forbidden technique. A technique that turned him into stone. He spent hundreds, or thousands of years in that stone chamber. Lost in time, until one day, the technique's power faded. He was confused, but especially frightened inside the Kururugi Shrine. He left the safe haven of the shrine for another dangerous world that was far different from his own. The destroyed city of Tokyo was the first sight he witnessed. He remembered leaving behind his shock expression to find a safer place to recover and recuperate.
Then his first encounter with the knightmare frames in the forest. A Glasgow was his first ever opponent in the time period, and was destroyed by his Rasengan easily. After the fight between the knightmare frame and Naruto, the blond felt many emotions fighting for dominance. Anger won victorious, and the anger was directed at his precious people for abandoning him. He accidentally unleashed the Kyuubi's powers. Before he fell unconscious from over usage of the Kyuubi's chakra; Uzumaki Naruto and Lelouch Vi Britannia met for the first time. A child dressed in blue silks, and royal clothing. Another boy was behind Lelouch, Suzaku Kururugi.
After that, Naruto awoke inside the Ashford Mansion and met Sayoko Shinozaki - a maid with incredible abilities for a world without chakra, Milly Ashford, Milly's Mother Lily Ashford, and Nunnally Vi Britannia or as she call herself now, Nunnally Lamperouge . Naruto also met an old man by the name of Ruben K. Ashford. The old man reminded him of the Third Hokage, and Naruto couldn't handle the memory of the old man.
He left the Ashford Mansion and traveled Japan. He learned many things about the time period, but Naruto knew it wasn't his world to get involved.
A New World
Chapter 2 (Seven Years Later)
"You're out of time. From here on you'll make your moves for every twenty seconds," an old man in a black suit said.
"Huh... Very well I'm game," the noblemen replied.
The old man moved a piece on the chessboard. After half an hour of play, the old man gulped when he looked at the board. He was losing, and couldn't come up with a strategy plan that could come out in his favour. The door opened and revealed two Britannian students. The old man was relieved at the appearance of the two, and stood up and walked up to them.
"Did your substitute arrive?" the noblemen questioned.
"Thank heavens, I'm saved. Are things going well at school?" the old man questioned the students.
"What do we have here... school boys..?" the noblemen said.
The students came forward that revealed Lelouch and Rival.
"Look at this... Another noblemen," Lelouch said.
"I envy you kids today; you have so much time in your hands, time for regrets. Whats your name?" he questioned
"Lelouch... Lamperouge," he replied. Lelouch's passive gaze remained on the noblemen.
"Whoa... Wait a minute, you can't win this game. It's impossible. Right?" the Rival said. He glanced at the chessboard, and the favor wasn't in Lelouch's side.
"Rival? When do you think we have to leave? In order to make our next class," Lelouch questioned.
"Twenty minutes if we bust our hump," he replied
"Then be sure you drive safely on the way back," he said
"I'll need nine minutes, and by the way about yesterday..." Lelouch continued. The former prince walked up to the board, and sat on the chair.
"Understood, we'll just discuss it later,' Rival replied.
"Nine minutes? You only have twenty seconds per move," the noblemen sound offended, but Lelouch didn't care.
"Enough time," he grabbed the king and moved him forward.
"Hmm? You're starting with the king," he laughed, and Lelouch smile.
A pen dropped on the red carpet in the room. The nobleman's eyes widen in surprise. He glanced at the board for clues encase the boy cheated, and when he couldn't find one, the noblemen sighed.
"I love playing against nobility. When they lose, they always pay out of pride," Rivals said.
"By the way. Eight minutes and thirty two seconds is a new record," he finished.
"He also didn't have much time to move either. As opponents go, the nobles are stupid. Their just over privileged parasites that's all" Lelouch said. Lelouch and Rival exited the building.
"Well then, why don't you just challenge one of those elevens. They're nothing like us Britannians," Rival said. He ran ahead of Lelouch and turned around to face the former prince.
"What are they trying to prove by killing innocent bystanders," a cilivian gasped at the large television screen on the side of a building.
"Those elevens are terrifying," another civilian whispered.
"We apologize for the delay. Now his royal Prince Clovis, Third Prince of Britannia, will address the nation," a female news anchor women said from the television screen. Clovis appeared on the screen and said.
"To all my Imperial subjects, including of course many cooperative elevens who chose to serve the empire of Britannia," Clovis clutched his hands to his chest. "Do you not see my pain, my heart was ripped from my chest, only to be torn apart, and the remnants are filled with rage and sorrow. However as ruler of area 11, I will not tolerate terrorism of any kind, because the battle we fight is a righteous one, a virtues battle, to protect the well being of one and all, now then everyone I would like you to join me in observance of the eight who died for justice, in a line of duty," he finished.
"A moment of silence, please," the newswomen voice said.
"Well... Aren't you going to join in?" Rival questioned.
"Aren't you," Lelouch replied. Rival chuckled and replied
"It's sort of embarrassing," Rival replied and chuckled.
"And I agree with you. Besides spilling tears for those people won't bring them back. Will it?" Lelouch grabbed a piece of paper and hopped on the bike.
"Damn... That was some dark stuff coming from you," Rival replied, and he pulled his scooter goggles down to his eyes.
"It's all about self-satisfaction. Doesn't matter how hard you try, you can't do it, there's no way you can change the world," he said harshly.
"This is alpha three... Target is traveling from delta 12 to delta 14 at a speed of 80 km per hour," the man said to the radio's walkie talkie. He was piloting a helicopter, and below the helicopter on the highway was a large truck driving.
"CCP to all mobile units. Declaring a code 3 to 4.5 to 4.2. all units take 2.8.8, I want target intact," another male voice said from the head phones of the helicopter's pilot.
In the Shinjuku Ghetto, Naruto thought he perfectly blended with the occupants. After all, he doesn't want anything to do with this world. He doesn't need more troubles with the conflicts of the world on his doorstep. He rather just spent the rest of his life alone, and then wait for the wonderful bliss of returning to his precious people. The world he was in now was too troubled. Britannian invaded Japan recently and treated its conquered civilians like trash. Then Britannia removed all of its nationalities and branded Japan a number.
Area 11, Japan's current name. Their citizen, once proud Japaneses, was now named elevens. Naruto sighed when he entered the ruins of an apartment complex. Naruto's grey shirt had few rips in them, and matching black pants that complimented his shirt. Loose fitting sandals remained his current attire, and he didn't like the shoes that most people wear, mostly because the shoes covered his entire feet, and he couldn't feel the breeze on his feet.
The last few days were troubling from the news reporters on the television. A report said that recently, there have been rebels factions making their move in Tokyo. He hoped that it won't affect him directly.
"Hey, Oji-san! How's it going?" Naruto questioned from the ruin of an old door. The apartment inside was a mess, but liveable. Naruto viewed the few luxuries that the lone occupant owned. A picture of the old man's family, and another with his son in it.
"Naruto-kun!" The old man greeted. "Nothing, hungry as usual."
Naruto laughed. "Don't worry; I'm here to save your day. I brought the latest groceries."
"Thank you Naruto-kun," the old man grinned. Naruto's cheerful attitude was always contagious, even when the world felt like crushing him.
"Anyways, I have to more deliveries to hand out."
The old man noticed three more grocery bags in Naruto's hands, and couldn't help but smile at the blond.
Naruto left the apartment and walked his next destination. The next delivery was a house down the street from where the old man's apartment. The household contained a small family, with a father, mother, and two children. He entered the house, and the children immediately rushed to him.
"Naruto-nii-san!
"Hello Matoko-chan, Tsuka-chan." Naruto greeted the young children.
"Where's your dad? I brought him the latest groceries," and then a women in her mid-thirties entered from the living room.
"Eh? Naruto-kun! I didn't realize you were here."
"Here," Naruto walked to her and placed the bag in her hands.
"I can't thank you enough for this," she said.
Naruto grinned. "No problem. So has your husband found a job yet?"
A sighed escaped from the women.
"No," she said.
"I'm sorry, but I'm sure he'll find a job. Anyways I have more deliveries, so I have to go," Naruto said.
"No problem, but have you practiced your Britannian?" the women said. Naruto was terrible at the language, but that was why she helped the blond out. He needed to learn the language, since it was the main language around the world.
Naruto grinned and nodded.
"Naruto-nii-san! Why are you leaving so soon? Won't you play with us for a bit?"
"Sorry Matoko-chan, Tsuka-chan, but I'm currently busy." He ruffled the girl's head, and a pout was visible on their faces.
Naruto left the safe compounds of the house, and his next destination in mind.
Naruto heard screeches from tires, and then a crash. He guessed it was bad, and Naruto ran towards the direction of the sound.
When Naruto arrived, he immediately noticed the truck lying on its side. Sirens could be heard in the distance.
Naruto checked inside the truck and found nothing. He checked the interior of the truck and found a strange machine, and noticed that it was opened recently. Naruto left quickly, because Britannian tended to blame someone before finding evidence.
Naruto was going to be blamed if he doesn't leave soon. He traveled inside the building and down the stairs to escape the cruisers that neared.
The blond followed the path in the sewers and it led to another set of stairs. Naruto noted an exit sign on the wall near the stairs. He claimed up, but before he reached the top stair, Naruto felt an feeling, almost forgotten to him in this world.
Faint sources of chakra usage.
He hidden himself carefully and traveled up the stairs with caution. What Naruto saw reminded him of his time in the Ashford Mansion. Lelouch covered his eyes and a laugh escaped from him. No, not a laugh, but a maniacal chuckle. A green haired girl in a weird jumpsuit lay on the ground behind him, and a group of Britannian soldier stood at the exit.
"I, Lelouch, order you to kill yourselves!" Lelouch shouted.
Naruto saw something weird, and watched the soldiers obeyed and shot themselves with their guns. Chakra usage was evident, and Naruto was curious behind the power. How was it possible to use chakra to make an order that the person couldn't disobey? It was interesting watching the technique, and Naruto reminded himself to watch Lelouch from now on.
But what was the point of the girl? Was she the source of the first chakra source? Did she give the power to Lelouch? Naruto didn't have any recollection of Lelouch using that power before. So maybe the girl was the source behind this power. She needed to be kept an eye on.
A knightmare entered the room, and Naruto watched with interest at the next set of events. Somehow, Lelouch managed to convince the Knightmare pilot to leave its interior, and then Lelouch used the power again, and watched Lelouch enter the knightmare with the password given to him by the pilot.
But Lelouch made a mistake. The black haired teenager left the green haired girl alone, thinking she was dead. Naruto could feel small pulses of chakra radiating from her. Naruto used a simple illusion technique and touched the girl and she disappeared under his jutsu.
Lelouch in the knightmare didn't notice and left the storage shack. The pilot still in her daze to notice.
Naruto took the girl and entered the sewers again. When Naruto was sure the area was clean of soldiers, Naruto examined the girl and found nothing wrong with her. Well, maybe except for the bullet wound on her forehead. Naruto found that the girl has incredible regeneration powers, but her chakra reserves barely fed enough to remove the bullet wound. It would take three to four days for the wound to completely heal, but if Naruto speeds up her regeneration powers with his chakra, then maybe she would heal faster.
It was worth a shot.
Naruto touched the girl's belly with his hands, and concentrated on pushing his chakra into her stomach which the point where her reserve should be at. Naruto concentrated when he felt the point and slowly felt his chakra enter her body. He never expected for the girl to accept her chakra without much trouble, and usually the body would reject another person's chakra. Naruto watched the skin remove the bullet from her head, and then it stitched itself up.
The girl opened her eyes, and watched Naruto with surprised eyes.
"Who are you?" She said in Britannian dialect.
"I'm Uzumaki Naruto," the blond replied but replied the words in Britannian too.
"What is your name, girl?" Naruto said.
She didn't reply for a moment. She was lost in the feeling of chakra, revolving around her body. She never felt anything this wonderful in her entire life before.
"C.C... What did you do...?"
"I inserted chakra into your chakra system to spend up your regeneration powers. Quite impressive, but it doesn't compared to mine," Naruto replied and a hint of pride in his voice.
"Chakra...? What is that?" C.C questioned. She never heard anything about this type of power before. C.C has the knowledge of the Geass, but not Chakra. Was it a new type of Geass? Or another code with the same imprint as her own code?
"You're using chakra, but don't know what it is?" Naruto questioned. He guessed chakra was forever lost in the world, with the few exceptions like her.
"I'm using chakra...?" She was never confused before, and she lived for thousands of years! Maybe this man was a mental person, but that wasn't true. He used some sort of power that was different, but felt the same as her own regeneration powers, and her Code.
"Yes..." Naruto sighed.
An explosion rocked the sewers, and Naruto frowned.
"Something happening on the surface..."
"We have to leave now," Naruto said.
C.C watched Naruto with interest. He didn't seem to have the code imprinted to him, but his entire aura felt like the code. It was strange, and she wanted to find out more about this mysterious man. She had never met something like him before, and she intends to find out the secret of this chakra.
C.C nodded, and followed him down the sewers. C.C found out that the man has incredible stamina to continue running after thirty minutes. She felt tired, and her leg musle burned. Naruto didn't look tired one bit, and when Naruto saw her falling behind, he sighed.
He forgotten that the girl wasn't a ninja, and she was tired from the running. Naruto stopped and looked at C.C.
"Can you still run? We're almost out of the Shinjuku Ghetto." Naruto knew about the residents of the Shinjuku Ghetto will be safe, and it wasn't good to kill innocent people in cold blood, and as long as the media doesn't hear about this. Damnit! What was he thinking! He has forgotten about the recent news reports, and his experiences with political situation. Of course Britannian will murder innocent people in cold blood!
He was an idiot!
"Yeah..." C.C huffed. "I can still run."
Naruto looked back at the end of the sewer's long system. It was a long way back to the Shinjuku Ghetto.
