D.M: No comment, I'm too lazy to explain. And yes, I did get Curare from American History, it was used by Native Americans in bows and arrow...I'm just kidding. It's from Arrow. As a bonus, I came up with a way to add the Rasengan to the story. It was not easy and I am not a physicist so don;t flame me if you are!
"Where am I?" Naruto spoke as he opened his eyes. He was in the hospital plugged to an IV, EKG, and Oxygen Machine, he took of the oxygen mask around his face and attempted to sit up.
A man rushed to his side and stopped him, once Naruto's eyes adjusted to the light he could see it was Fugaku, "Careful, you are still recovering from Curare and Blood Loss."
"What happe..." the boy began as he carefully sat up remembering of the bloody murder he did. "What time is it?"
"3:00, everyone is in the hospital lobby asleep, except for Sara who is..." Fugaku moved to the side to reveal the teenage girl asleep on one of the chairs. "Rest, I'll explain everything in the morning."
The blond attempted to protest toward his uncle/boss's statement but his body was to exhausted to continue consciousness. Several hours later, he came to. "Naruto's awake!" Kiba told his friends.
Sara ran to him, kissed and hugged every ounce of nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon out of him, "Oh my god, you're awake. I was so worried, don't scare us like that again," she said as the girl sobbed with tears streaming down her cheek, her head buried in his chest.
I was awake a few hours ago talking to Fugaku, what happened?" he asked his friends.
Sasuke walked up to explain, "Naruto...that was 15 days ago."
"Your heart stopped and not just once," Ino cleared, "You DIED Naruto."
The blond had trouble believing what he heard, 'I feel like I'm cheating death on a daily basis now.' "Well its been 2 weeks, and I am done sleeping," he got up with a grunt.
Just then the doctor walked in, "Well its good to see you living Mr. Uzumaki, fortunately the Curare has been flushed from your system, but you may suffer some hallucinations or headaches. I'll get the nurse to switch your bandages and you will be good to go."
"See, I'm alright, Sara-chan..." Naruto comforted.
"I missed the feel of my Koten," Naruto got on his cycle and sped away with his friends to go home. When the nurse examined his wounds at the hospital, it was still bloddy red but slighlty faded at the sides. Aside from a slight feeling of immortality, the teenagers drove to Naruto's house. "Ma'am, is this the Uzumaki Residence?"
Yugao recognized the voice and rushed to hug the blond as he walked through the door with his 12 friends, "I guess there is some catching up to do."
A few cookies, glasses of orange juice, and plenty of talk later, everything was explained. Though all was normal until Choji saw something on the new, "Uzumaki, come take a look at this!"
The group went to the living room to see the TV. It had Mebuki Haruno talking on it outside of Konoha General, "This is Mebuki Haruno and I am Live at Konoha General Hospital where local hero Naruto Uzumaki has been released after 15 days under recovery from a mercenary attack," the channel cut to an amateur video of Naruto at the SHARINGAN demo and another of him fighting the mercenaries from two weeks ago, "Becoming known as a local hero and the savior of Fugaku Uchiha, CEO of Uchiha Corporations. Along with this story I bring you one story: the Unmasking of Arashi."
Sara and Naruto looked at eachother with wide eyes then back at the screen. It cut to a person looking like Arashi on a podium, "I am the one who has been protecting this city for years now..." the figure first took of the mask to reveal neck level redish-brown hair and his eyes were ringed blue once the mask was off.
'An imposter, why am I not suprised. Dammit, I should have seen this coming...' Naruto thought as him and Sara let a relief of sigh pass. "Well, this was unexpected."
"Agreed, though it is strange that he would go through all the trouble of hiding his identity to eventually reveal it," Neji commented.
As the guests (excluding Sara left) Naruto ran upstairs with said girl, "Kurama run a facial recognition on the poser."
"Gotta give the bastard some props, I mean revealing himself while you were in limbo. Soooooo Sara, how is Naruto and Sara part 2?" the AI responded.
"Wha..." the blond began as the 5 screens each showed the video that the KYUUBI had recorded them of making love, the sound was more than convincing. The blond ran to the back of his PC, "Where's the fucking powercord?"
"Yeesh, calm down. I finished that facial recognition. The poser's name is Mizuki Uragirimono, court martialled from the military for attempting to steal arms. There was a sealed file which shows him being an ex-ANBU but he barely got in. This guy is a loser!" KYUUBIi explained as Naruto calmed down and back up. "Sara, you're not pregnant are you?"
The girl blushed even more and answered, "No, I took birth control. As much as I want children with Naruto, I don't think he is currently suited for him...yet."
Her lover put his arm around her waist and kissed her forehead. They were about to start another session until KYUUBI interrupted them by opening a schematics file with a drawing of a glove and designs around the palm, the name was 'Prototype R1'.
"You got it?" the boy asked.
"Please, this was child's work, wanna begin?" he sent a file to the printer and said machine started printing it onto paper.
"What is this?" Sara asked as she looked at the schematic.
"This," the Uzumaki Teenager explained, "Is a plan for a military prototype that Uchiha Corp was designing, the lead of it was my father. But in his passing it was shut down and the files were lead to becoming classified. I will complete it and utilize it. Wanna help me?" he gave her his fox smile.
She smiled back and the 3 began. Sara brought out multiple tools, Naruto began to work on building the circuitry, and the AI coded the chip. The once clean, black desk was now messy with solidified sodder, papers, pens, sweat, wires, transistors, capacitors, and such. Once finished Naruto turned on his computer's camera to record. "Alright, Protoype R1 test #1."
The glove was snug on the blond's hand. It was of course black, but it had metal around the palm and scaling up his finger's like a skeleton. In the middle was a flat, circulat bit that seemed to be able to rotate. It was 1/8 of an inch in diameter so it was not bulging. 6 wires ran from the wrist on to a car battery on the floor. Naruto turned on the device, the rotating bit spun at almost breaking point. A small sphere of electricity formed around the bit 2 inches in diameter. He put his finger's near edge of the sphere, as it slightly created a pull, the electric sphere increased in size. Naruto chuchkled nervously, but as he did the sphere burst and his glove caught on fire, "SARA, GET THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER!"
The girl ran to grab the metal container and sprayed it on the boy's burning hand. He took of the glove to reveal 2nd degree burns. "Well, let's patch this up and try again."
This brought horror to Sara, "ARE YOU CRAZY NARUTO! YOU JUST GOT OUT OF THE DAMN HOSPITAL, AND YOU WANT TO END UP BACK IN THERE!" she shrieked as a finger met her lips.
"Don't worry, its just a slight burn. We both know I've had worse. I've been away from you for 2 weeks and I'm not leaving," he replied. This allowed the 2 to continue as KYUUBI rolled his pixelized eyes. The trio continued 5 more times, several times the sphere didn't even form.
"What are we trying to accomplish here, Naruto-kun?"
"The metal bit you see here, rotates at a high speed, enough so that it discharges a unstable amount of energy. The metal casing around the bit and on the fingers create a sort of repel effect that stabilizes it. Along with some circuitry that controls the output of the energy, a sphere of pure electrical energy is created. While being small, the tips of the gloves, pull on the particles forcing them to expand by adding more energy to the sphere. As the bit rotates, the 2nd input energy stabilizes and continues to rotate in perfect synchronization," he explained.
"Since when did you become a quantum-mechanic physicist?" Sara asked with interest.
He answered by folding his arms to the back of his head, leaning back, and closing his eyes, "Last night, I read up on my dad's papers and research for it. I need your help on a power source, as you know I can carry a battery on my back wherever I go."
"What if you created energy capsules. They could contain enough energy for a single use of the Prototype," Kurama explained.
"Perfect, if I can contain electricity and put it make it into pure energy then..."
"NO! First, you need to sleep. Its 1 AM, and both of us are exhausted," Sara scolded.
"But..." Naruto argued but the redheaded girl was very firm on her point, "Fine. I'll sleep on the floor, you take the bed," he said as Naruto tossed a pillow on the ground only to be stopped.
"We've slept together once, its the same thing. Just actual sleeping," Sara got into the bed, Naruto was truthfully to tired to argue and got in with her, "Good night Naruto-kun."
"Night Sara," he said as Kurama turned of the lights though the house's security system.
The couple woke up with a scream, Naruto instantly shot up to see his mother in horror looking at them, "You two...had..."
"Mom, its not what you think. We just slept together," though in modern times as today, that term in used in the wrong way and Yugao had no difference in expression.
Sara got up to explain, "Mrs. Uzumaki, I was helping Naruto catch up in school. We got side-tracked by a project, soon we were tired. So yes we did sleep, but ONLY sleep. Nothing else."
Yugao just left the room and went downstairs, a few minutes later everything was less awkward and the 2 classmates continued the prototype. "I'm gonna go home, good luck with the prototype."
"Thanks, be safe..." Naruto replied as he continued to to work. Sara just sighed at his focus, 'This is what I was afraid of,' she thought and left.
A few more hours passed as he continued to work, "Alright finally finished. Let's hope this one does not blow up like the 4th variation or short circuit like the 10th," he put on the glove and prepped the glove for the energy discharge."
"You forgot about number 1 catching on fire, and I think I may have located the poser. His past cell phone single was at West Borough Crest Community, Mansion 3."
"Mansion, let me guess...endorsements?" Naruto asked as he walked to the closet to get his uniform and such.
"Yup, a partnership with Redbull. From Zero to a so called "Hero" in 12 hours. Take the karambit, you've never used it. It seems wrong to have it collect dust," Kurama told Naruto as he put the knife on his belt. The blond took out the blade and looked at the blood stains. His blood stains. After a brief flashback he was dressed. "Quickly test it out, c'mon I can only simulate what would happen."
"Here goes nothing," Naruto turned on the prototype, as the bit spun the sphere of energy formed. Naruto put his fingers near the ball and retracted them, increases the size. As he did it was stable, once done the sphere was the size of a grapefruit Naruto slammed it against a training dummy he had at the edge of his room. The impact created a circular burn crater around 2 inches deep. "Damn, I need to lower the input," with that comment he jumped out the window and swung into the city.
While entering the manor, Arashi noticed yelling from inside. He carefully approached the window to see a man with light blue hair and bluish-green, and an arrogant face dressed in a silk shirt and pants, "NO! I want the branding done by tomorrow. Not next month, not next week. TOMORROW!" a man yelled as he shut his phone in frustration and went to his fridge. He opened it and grabbed a bottle and popped it open. As soon as he closed the fridge door, a knife was thrown at the bottle shattering it and spilling the alcohol on the floor.
Mizuki yelped as he looked to his right to see Arashi, "Mizuki Uragirimono, you have falsely gained my identity for your own personal greed."
"Yeah yeah buddy, how much money do you want?" Aoi said as he wen tback to the fridge, "I'll give you 5,000 if you get the hell out of my house and not come ba.."
Just before Mizuki left to get another bottle, he was kicked and a tanto was thrown at his shirt, forcefully pinning him. Arashi brought out the karambit from the back of his belt and put it against his neck, "Listen poser, the last thing I need is someone like you getting in my way. And don't think I know who you are, Mizuki. How you were forced to leave from the ANBU and the only reason you got in was because your father was a squadron leader and bribed some of the exam proctors. Tell the press you are an imposter and I will leave."
The blue-haired man started sweated, but his expression changed when he saw the curved blade of the Karambit, "How did you get Yugao's knife? Only she would have a blue and gold colored blade."
'Did he just say 'Yugao's knife?' questions flooded Naruto's head as he 'asked' for an answer, "What do you mean?"
"I mean my ex-ANBU teammate, we were in a squad of 3 on a task of killing a target and his son. Three years later, she disappeared," he stammered as the blade slightly drew blood from his neck.
Arashi looked away to process all of this, causing Mizuki to find an open window and punch the figure away. Using his free hand, the man grabbed the tanto and swung it at Arashi. Suprisingly he caught the blade with his bare hands, "Like it? Custom Graphene gloves. Stronger than Kevlar, full flexibility, and much lighter."
Using the ring handle of the knife, he smacked in on the imposter's head causing him to stumble back. As his head throbbed, Mizuki managed to press a button labeled 'Panic.' 4 armed body guards rushed in with HKP2000's and surrounded Arashi, 'I don't have time for this shit...' Naruto grabbed mutiple smoke pellets and threw them an the ground creating an overkill of a smokescreen. Needless to say, he escaped.
Once home, he crashed on the bed like a cinderblock and quickly fell asleep. In the morning he went downstairs to talk with his 'mother,' "Hey mom, can I ask you a question?"
"Sure sweetie," Yugao replied as she cracked an egg onto the pan.
"Why did you kill my father and try to kill me?" Instantly her head lashed to face him. Her brown eyes fixated on his cold, steel blue ones. His posture remained rigid, his fists were clenched, and his teeth almost creaked with pressure. "WHY?!"
Uragirimono means 'traitor' so I thought it might fir him. Sorry, about the inactivity. I've been really busy and may have a plan for another story but it will take me a while. Thinking back on how long this story was supposed to be I may shorten it. Nonetheless, it will be finished. Sorry and Thanks.
