D.M: First of all, I would like to thank all of my audience for the support. Full of Imagination, I won't hack you, what gave you that idea? And another notice about the M Rating change, I can't do a harem because the plot relies on there being no harems. Also in modern life, there are no harems.
WelshDragon18: So without further ado, I would like to give a special award to someone.
D.M: Someone who has given me outstanding support, incredible ideas, and the source of my entire plot: MineEngineer!
WelshDragon18: Can we get an applause?
*Silence*
D.M: Applause or I'll get Kurama to hack every account you possess!
*Intense Clap*
It had been 2 weeks since Sara and Naruto kissed. His mom was worried intensely about where he was, so he made a simple lie that he woke up and went to GameStop. Luckily, she believed him, aside from the lies, his wounds left some scarring but were almost non-existent. It was like he had some sort of accelerated healing, but it didn't matter. What did was that Coach Genma was on his ass to join the school's soccer team. Apparently his speed was a vital factor for the school, so he was currently on his way to Uchiha Corp for his job, while healing from his surgery, Naruto and Kurama got to work on upgrading the firewall, they would have put a backdoor sequence, but Kurama managed to analyze and create a containment for the worm if they ever hacking into their files, "Are you sure, he won't find out?"
"Calm down brat, your talking to the worlds most intelligent software. If I ever made an error in coding, I would have been refined to never make any,," Kurama boasted, "Plus, you personality and file sync updates have been useful. Now I can bug you even more."
He starting singing 'Naruto and Sara sitting in a tree'; at that point, Naruto ended the call and walked into the building. the receptionist greeted him, "Morning Naruto."
"Morning Mikosi," he replied as he the blond walked into the changing room to get dressed for work, and after changing he grabbed his files and headed to the server room. On his way there, one employee bumped into him on purpose causing his files to fall, cluttering over the ground.
"Watch where you're going, Uzumaki!" he said arrogantly. Some of his co-workers belittled him for being 16, and still having a higher position than them. Others respected him and were his friends, 'I wish I had my tanto, I could give him a reason to piss off. Permanently.'
Naruto ignored him, and quickly went to the server room to check the data for any corruptions or intrusions. He created a private server, that was linked to Uchiha Corp's for quick file transferring.
"Another day for sitting in a room for 4 hours," he mumbled as he scanned the network for any possible bypassing. Strangely, there was an intrusion but this person was skilled. Not at his level, but near, "Let's dance."
He went to work, the teenager used his laptop and the server room PC to reinforce and trap this new hacker, 'This could be the same person that hacked the school 2 weeks ago.'
As he was coding, he put out his phone and used voice command to call the AI, "I have a wicked hacker, capture and track the IP, when I say now," Naruto's hand movement was rapid. It was if Usain Bolt had a twice as fast brother named Insain Bolt (xD, got it from a commerial), "NOW!"
"Got it, I'll make the final patch and track this guy," Kurama said on the phone as he hung up.
Fugaku walked in clapping, "Well done Naruto!"
"How did you..." Naruto asked with, "Was that you?"
The CEO shook his head, "No, I allowed the hacker to come in. I saw everything through your laptop and the company's PC. We do have spyware to assure our employees are working, and you have done amazing work. The way your hands moved and such focus. I've never seen such commitment before since your father."
"Thanks Mr. Uchiha," Naruto said as he scratched the back of his head while smiling.
"Now, I know I can trust you," he firmly gripped Naruto's shoulder, the same one that was shot; Naruto was in intense pain but didn't show, "Follow me, I am about to show you the future, follow me."
When Fugaku started walking away, Naruto mouthed alot of cussing, then joined him. On their way there, the Uchiha began his lecture again until they reached Tech Development Level 5, "I always imagined what it would be like for Soldiers to have an upgrade. A visual upper hand, no more will soldiers need NVG's or Thermal Goggles. I introduce you to Project SHARINGAN."
He opened the door to reveal a pair of contact lenses with experts in testing, "I know it may not seem like much but theoretically, it could create a visual HUD for the user. Night Vision, Facial Recognition, Item classification, Visual translation, a live 3D or 2D map of a landscape or building, Thermal Vision, Optical recording and pictures, Improved eye sight, and 4K zoom up to 2 kilometers. It will be the pinnacle of all biotech development. All we need is someone to create the interface, someone like you," he said as he gave the boy a proud look and smile.
"I don't think I've ever done a project this big and I don't think I can, sir," Naruto said with self-doubt, "You are talking about programming that is techno-organic compatible."
"It's alright, I can give you some source code to learn. We can only use 1 application at a time. Right now there is a rather weak facial recognition, 720p zoom up to a quarter kilometer, a 2D map which is glitchy, and the night vision is full of bugs. All I need is some code upgrade and a multi-use UI. Another, if it is fuctional, I would like you to test it. I hear you have a martial arts background and I want to see if the SHARIGAN will help in close-quarters combat," Fugaku informed Naruto.
He was deciding whether to take the challenge or not, Kurama would love this but it would be tricky, "I'll do it."
"You won't be disappointed, Naruto. Neither will the pay be disappointing. Here's the source code, I'll leave you to analyze and develop," he handed Naruto a USB flash drive and left.
Naruto checked the source code with his laptop and found the problems immediately, 'This amateur. Over 15 lines haven't been debugged, the coding limited the processing capability, and the interface would take a day at the most to create!'
The teenager knew he could finish this in a few days, so he began. Pretty soon it was 8:15 PM; marking his day over and beginning his night. Naruto safely tucked the USB in his pocket. He took a bus to a bus stop near his house; while he was walking, Sara called him, "Hello beautiful."
"Oh don't you 'hey beautiful' me! Kurama told me you are going to the city as Arashi!" she replied with some anger and slight worry, "We still have our date tonight."
'That cybernetic bastard, he isn't even alive and he can annoy me.' Naruto had to reason with her, "I just have to run a quick errand that's all, then I'll be there to pick you up with a single scratch."
Sara thought about it for a few minutes and gave her final opinion, "Okay, but not a single scratch. Alright, love you. Bye."
"Love you too," Naruto said.
By the time they had finished talking Naruto was home, and he quietly went to his room, turned on his webcam so KYUUBI could see him, "Kurama, first of all fuck you for telling Sara about tonight," he also double flipped him off.
The AI responded by typing a ASCII middle finger in the notepad.
"Whatever, did you track the IP?" he said with focus on the objective.
"Pff, that's like asking if you have a deathwish," the AI replied going to its pixelized face, "Address is uploaded to our phone, I am uploaded to your com-link, and check your bed. Something came in the mail for you."
On Naruto's bed was a box 14 inches long and 5 inches wide, he used a pen to open the tape. Inside were 2, deadly and beautifully made tantos each 1 foot long. The hilt was scarlet with some gold leather on the grip and the blade was pure black with a lightning design, "I guess now I can stop using my Katana," naruto said as he stroked the blade's edge. The sharp edge of each of the blades glistened in the light. The box also had a note:
'Dear Arashi,
These are Raijin's Edge, the new tanto you asked for. And just like you asked, they are completely corrosion-resistant. It is composed of a Zirconium-Titanium alloy making it conductive and resistant to acids. As an additional advantage, the edge is laced with diamond shards and barium titanate mixed with molten tin. It is nearly indestructible and highly sharp. I have created and dealt some pretty dangerous and tricky weapons, but this afar has beaten all of them. The payment is 15% more of the your old tantos. Good luck, and use them wisely.
-Karitu Higurashi'
Damn, he really outdid himself," Naruto complimented as he tested the balance. It felt a few ounces heavier, but the upgrades were necessary. The blond hacker went on his computer and transferred 29,000 coins to Katiru's dealing account. He was Arashi's weapons supplier, did some private military deals that were linked with Hyuuga Inc. He made and modified weapons, Hyuuga Inc. replicates the upgrades and sells them, the military and armies purchase massive shipments, and Higurashi gets 40% of the sales.
Naruto fit the blades into the belt sheaths he had for his old tantos and placed his 'uniform' inside a backpack along with a tuxedo. After a little workout to get his arm ready, he put on casual clothes and went downstairs to see his mother waiting for him.
"And where do you think you are going," Yugao asked with her arms crossed.
Naruto was worried but stayed calm, "Library, Mr. Orochimaru has a Bio Test tomorrow, I still haven't finished memorizing cell structures of a Eukaryotic cell."
The purple-haired woman smiled, "Remember to give Sara flowers tonight."
"Wha..." Naruto was mind-blown, "How..."
"Naruto, I raised you for almost 13 years. I know how your mind works," Yugao said as if it was obvious, "Now don't hurt her feelings and be home before 11:00," he shoved him outside with a mischievous smile.
'At least she doesn't know about how we started dating,' Naruto shrugged off as he quickly put on his Arashi gear and left to the address on his phone. As he was swinging, Naruto discused about what happened at Uchiha Corp. today, "Hey Kurama, Fugaku invited me to a level 5 BioTech project, its called Project SHARINGAN. They are trying to create a smart HUD user-interface on contact lenses. According to him, it could allow thermal imaging, night vision, high optical zoom, 3D map placement, high accuracy calibration."
"Sounds like a military project. And because of your sudden interest in talking about this and your position in the project, they need a better coder and a multi-use interface," KYUUBI replied with no emotion.
"You bypassed a trojan into their military files through my server?" Naruto asked slightly annoyed.
"I bypassed myself, I kinda control Uchiha Corp now. Like an Anti-Virus that isn't bullshit, and I have an idea for your little science fair project. Once you refine the coding, add me as an AI to the software. It will allow me to anticipate and relay any data requested. Of course for this to work, you will need a compatible speech-to-application software," Kurama replied, feeling a bit offended that Naruto thought he would do something so simple.
This caused ideas to flood through Naruto's head, "You are a genius!"
"I am an AI with an IQ over 300, and you are here. Good luck, and try not to get killed. Wouldn't want to die a virgin would you?" the crimson colored AI joked again.
Naruto rolled his eyes and went on the roof of the mansion, 'Why is this place so familiar,' Naruto thought. He entered the room through the windows that simply had a metallic latch by sliding his blade into the window opening and lifting it; Arashi slowly stepped inside and turned on his voice changer just incase. One hand behind his back on the tanto grip and the seconds infront of him, The bed is clear, who ever stays here must be away.'
Arashi made his to the computer, of course it had a password which took the KYUUBI 3 seconds to bypass, strangely the wallpaper was of the entire last year's freshman class with Naruto's face circled with hearts. Suddenly a figure entered the room, Arashi hid behind the door until she closed it. Just then he brought out a tanto up to her neck; it was then he got a good look at the figure. The was a girl with Lavender hair, dressing in pajamas, and with headphones around her neck. The girl was Hinata Hyuuga. Her eyes widened as she looked at the blade being held against her, "P-Please don't h-hurt me, m-my father w-will g-give you w-whatever y-y-you want. Just please d-don't h-hurt me o-or my f-f-family."
These words brought great sorrow to the vigilante, as if he would harm her or use her as a tool to gain profit, "I'm not here to hurt you, I infact want some information. If you promise to calm down and not run, we can talk," he explained as the tanto lower from her neck and back into its sheath. Arashi could easily see the girl was still troubled. He brought out a throwing knife, put it in her hands, and had the edge at his neck "Here, use this if you don't trust me."
Her arms shook at the thought of this actually happening, a man who had saved countless lives was giveing her the option to kill him in order to prove trust. Hinata was mystified, was this man really telling the truth, "O-okay, what d-do you n-n-need," as she brought the knife down and put it on her dresser that was right next to the bed.
He smiled under his mask knowing that she trusted him, "I would like to know why you attempted to hack Uchiha Corp and no I am not here to take you in or anything."
"W-Well i-i-it h-happened..." she began until Arashi stopped her.
"Take a deep breath, relax, and speak calmly," he said in a comforting voice.
Hinata took a large amount of air, exhaled, and loosened up, "Well it happened when I came across a file that I found intriguing under the name Project SHARINGAN. The base schematics showed that it was a sort of ocular enhancement for military use, it sounded amazing so I decided to investigate more. I expected the file to guarded, but as soon as I entered a worm attacked my computer. I barely managed to shut it down, but its encryption was beyond anything I've seen. So I moved on and found a design for a security system today. One that could calculate and predict its opponents moves like a chess player, entrapping them. As I tried to gain access, I was shut down by a very skilled IT employee at Uchiha Corp and here we are," she said as he shrugged.
"Okay, thank you Ms. Hyuuga and have a good night," Arashi said as he walked back to the window. Hinata stopped him by grabbing his arm.
She handed him his knife, "What about this?"
"Keep it, a little sign of trust," he put it back into her hands.
The girl looked down on it and replied, "Are you sure, I just thought that..." once she looked up he was gone and the window was closed. It was as if it had never happened, but what reminded her that it did was the 5 inch knife in her hand, 'Arashi huh, I hope I can meet him again.'
After hiding the bag with his Arashi gear, Naruto quickly ran up the lobby stairs of an apartment complex building with a bouquet of roses in his hand. He had on a white dress shirt with a black blazer and black dress pants. He tried to settle his hair, but it seemed as if it was sentient. Finally when he arrived to the 8th floor and door 244th door, he knocked, "Pizzahut."
As the door opened, it seemed like a goddess had entered the human realm to Naruto. Sara wore a dark blue dress with a shirt that stopped at her knees. It hugged her figure well causing her to blush as Naruto looked at her with awe, "You look a... I am at a lost of words," he started.
"What are those," the redheaded-girl said as she pointed at the flowers.
Naruto quickly noticed and regathered his confidence, "These are roses I got you."
"Aww, you shouldn't have Naruto," Sara replied as Naruto handed them to her.
He got a smile and answered in an obnoxious logic, "If you don't want them, I could return them..."
Sara playfully punched his right shoulder(no bullet one, put the flowers, in a vase, and left with her date, "So where are we going to day, Mr. Vigilante."
"Well I originally planned something else, but I decided on Benihana to celebrate my first military project that Fugaku wants me to lead and test," Naruto replied as he thought about what Kurama said could happen if he uploaded him to the lenses.
"Seriously," Sara asked and the blond nodded, "Damn, seems awesome. So what are you gonna do about Coach Genma, I mean its no secret he might beg for you to join the soccer team."
"Not sure, I might just have to sign up so people don't question what I really do with my time," they entered the restaurant.
Naruto found a table, a waitress instantly came over. She had shoulder length blue hair that covered on of her eyes. She passed out menus to them and spoke, "Hello my name is Misumi and I will be your waitress for tonight. what would you like to drink?"
Sara instantly answered something no one would expect, "I'll have Hana Fuji Apple Sake."
'Why is she getting sake?' "I'll have Lemon-Lime Ramune," Naruto told the waitress who wrote it on her notepad and left to get their drinks. Once she left, Naruto turned to Sara and whispered, "Isn't it illegal to drink until you're 20?"
"My mom helped Misumi when she was in a car accident and she's kinda friendly, just please don't tell my mom," Sara said with slight worry.
Naruto sighed, "Okay, but try not to get drunk," by then Misumi came back with their drinks and placed them on the coaster. Then she began taking their orders, Naruto went first, "I will have Samurai Treat with extra spice on the shrimp with fried rice."
"And I will order the Benihana Special with fried rice too," Sara replied as she handed in her menu followed by Naruto. Misumi left the last time, allowing them to continue their talk, "So, how are the bullet wounds?"
"Sore, but manageable. Thanks for the surgery," Naruto replied happily, "Kurama has an idea involving Project SHARINGAN. He wants me to upload him via server so he can relay data once I wither find or create a voice-to-application software. Kinda like a video game HUD but better."
"You know sometimes I am completely lost in what you talk about," Sara answered with a smile, "Also, did order a new cloak. Your old one still has bullet holes from the corrosive coating, and you really one in red, it would bring out your mask more. Plus incase things get messy, no one will be able to see you bleed or the blood on your suit."
"Yeah, I considered that once but it wouldn't be very stealthy and I don't kill. I compromise, and warn," Naruto said with a down look remembering something he wish he hadn't.
She saw the look and questioned, "You've killed before haven't you?" He nodded, "I can tell that it's not something you enjoyed, so I'll drop the topic."
By the time they had finished, the chef had arrived and began to cook on the grill infront of the too. If Naruto wasn't a swordsman and skilled martial arts fighter, he would be impressed. By observing the chefs wrist movement, eye contact, and grip he could tell that he was new to the job position. While he was throwing the butcher knife in the air, it slipped. while he attempted to chop the fish into slices. Luckily for him, Naruto caught it and used the flat end to toss the fish into the air. Once it was, he made several slashes which cut the fish into clean fillet. So the fish was prepared, the blade was now in the chef's hands, and no one was impaled; much to the other customers amusement and awe.
Pretty soon, the chef had finished their meals, bowed, and left, "I'll admit, that was pretty impressive. Thought he butcher knife was balanced in weight giving him ease in his tricks," Naruto complimented as he took a bite of the shrimp.
"Relax, you saved the day and no one got hurt. Our food is perfect and we are happy, don't be a killjoy," Sara told him in a amused voice at his logic, "So what was this little errand you had tonight?"
Naruto sweat dropped, "Uh just tracing a certain lead. Let me ask you a question: why so many questions for me?"
"Well...I am your girlfriend and you're a badash that poundsh criminals intho a bloody pulp. If shomeone doeshn't comforth you or thell you wrong from righth, who the hell will?" Sara said drunkenly.
Naruto sighed at Sara's state , paid the check, and left a rather large tip and a note saying 'Plz don't give Sara anymore Sake or Alcohol' for Misumi, "Well Kurama, he has the world's knowledge and doesn't get drunk," as he carefully walked Sara outside of the building. Her movement was sluggish just as her speech was improving by the minute.
"Hey Naruto, can we go to the park? I've never been there yet, and I hear the fountain water looks beautiful at night with the glowing tiles," Sara asked. Her arm was around Naruto's neck she broke off when Naruto said yes. When they got there she started to run.
The fountain was ornate, 6 feet in diameter and 8 feet tall. The 3 disc bases constantly flowed water with a relaxed speed, but the beautiful part was the lights and flooring. It was a sort of semi-transparent rock with multiple OLED lights under it, giving the water a colorful hue. It seemed as a flowing pool of rainbows, not only that but some of the water carried the light giving it the same glow on the upper levels of the fountain.
"It's...beautiful," Sara said with a joyful glow in her eyes the matched the water. She ran to Naruto and hugged him. Luckily the alcohol was wearing off, so she would remember the fountain's beauty and not do anything stupid.
Hand in hand, the two began to walk awya until a man with a hoodie jacket, baggy pants, and a roughly shaved face flipped a butterfly-knife on Sara's neck. Dragging her 5 feet away from Naruto, "Wallet and Phone, or missy hear will have a few scars if she survives."
"Naruto..." Sara spoke in a soft voice full of worry. He gave her a signal with nodding his head to the left, moving his elbow, and using his eyes to show where to hit. She smiled as the girl got the idea.
'1 week and garbage like him comes back. Guess it's time to take out the trash,' the blond's thought as he was as calm as ever and slowly spoke and put his hands into his pockets, "See, I'm pulling out my wallet. Just don't hurt her," in reality Naruto grabbed 3 Mentos and in a single movement, he threw them at the thief's forehead. The impact caused him to close his eyes in pain, "Now Sara!"
She elbowed him deeply in the gut and ran to Naruto who use his foot to anchor the thief's leg, making his fall down on his back, the Uzumaki went into punch him, but was kicked on his left cheek leaving a bruise and a trail of blood down his lip edge. Just then something inside Naruto snapped; he thief stood up and attempted to slash at Naruto, but the blond put his arm infront so his sleeve was torn and his wound bleed. Once again he went for a stab but Naruto caught his wrist, and spanned int down like a twig.
"AHHHH," the thief screamed in pain. Naruto then used his hands to throw the knife up in the air and catch it in his palm which he then tightened into a fist. Punch after punch, the blond repeated as he finally side-elbowed his face, creating another crack and yell of pain. Knocking the thief to the ground, his nose bleeding profusely.
The hacker flipped the balisong (butterfly-knife's 2nd name) open and held it against the thief's neck hard enough to draw blood, "Listen up you pathetic piece of shit. You just tried to hurt my girlfriend and kill me. Give me one good reason why I shouldn't gut your neck like a fish," Naruto said with his eye's glowing with anger and hatred of a demon. The Thief was scared shitless, and couldn't speak from his fear of the teenager that he tried to rob, "No answer huh, Well say good bye."
Just as Naruto was about to execute him, he felt Sara's hand on his shoulder. The looked over and saw Sara with tears in her eyes, "Please stop!" she dug her head into her boyfriend's shoulder and started crying.
His senses started to return to him, he struck the thief's forehead knocking him out. Sara was bawling her eyes out into Naruto;s chest as he comforted her, "Shh, everything's alright," once she stopped, Naruto wiped her tears.
"I-I-I'll call the police and an ambulance," Sara said pulling out her phone. They came in 4 minutes and took in the thief. While Naruto's arm was mended and a bandage was placed over his bruised cheek, an officer asked Naruto about what happened. In the end, it was a simple case of self-defense. Once the cops and EMTs left Naruto walked Sara home, her mother was worried why she was late. The 2 stood at the door as they explained what happened at the park. Nonetheless, Zakubi Hayami (Sara's mother) was relieved, "Thank you Naruto for saving my daughter again. I'll leave you two to say good night."
"You saved my life again, and you took a price for it," Sara said with a sad voice, as she hung her head down.
Naruto brought up her head with his hand and replied, "I will save you no matter what the price be, even if it is my life," Naruto hugged her and the two kissed. Ina few minutes the separated, "Good night, Sara."
"Good Night, Naruto. Thanks for the date," Sara replied. The blond smiled back and left.
Once home by bus, he went into his room and looked at himself in the mirror remembered how he almost killed the thief. How he was happy whenever a new bone snapped, when a drop of his blood fell spilled on the floor. Did he go that because he tried to hurt Sara, or was it something he had feared for even longer. He looked once again and didn't see a 15 year-old teenager, he saw a demon covered on blood and smiling. With this, Naruto punched his mirror shattering it, "I'm a monster."
