Currently Naruto and Kiva were driving to the mall in a car Naruto had rented from the car dealership. ''Well Commander are you going to say anything or what?'' The entire drive had been quiet, and Naruto wasn't talking to hear his own voice.
''It just feels so strange. Back in my time not a moment could be wasted. Every moment dedicated to defeating the Glorft, every event scheduled as to not waste a moment's notice. To see people walking, talking, and laughing among the Earth's surface. It's just something I have to get used to.''
''Where do people live now?''
''They either lived in subterranean bases or on the colonies a lot of Earth's natural resources were used up long ago and the technology to replenish the oceans and forests and promote almost all natural growth were soon destroyed by the Glorft's first attacks.''
''And the Glorft? Where do they come from?''
''No one knows, is as if they appeared out of nowhere. The alliance didn't pay them too much attention as their attacks were against mostly our enemies at the time like the Electrolies and Pykronites. The electrolites were an energy race that fed off the planet's energies. We were able to keep them at bay with new breakthroughs in EMP technology that were attuned to their unique frequency. Then there were the Pykronites that wanted to extinguish all the Earth's oceans so they would attempt to heat up the crust of the Earth to a temperature comparable to their home world as the sun in their dimension was dying. For each race the Glorft built a Prototype and used it to enslave or annihilate the opposing race.''
''How do you know they used a Prototype for each race?''
''Let's just say Megas wasn't the only thing I stole during my infiltration mission. I hadn't decrypted all the information before traveling back to this time. Though if what you said is true and the Glorft can't travel back to the future were lucky. I'm not sure even Megas could handle the entire legion of other Prototypes that the Glorft have under their control.''
''I take it they never used them beyond the race their created for?''
''No,'' She shook her heard. ''Luckily for us the Glorft leader is one with too much pride and a flair for Grandiose movements.''
''I see...did you...do you have anyone special? I mean...you make the most of life when...'' He wasn't sure why he asked this question. Maybe he was just curious? Maybe because the current topic was a bit depressing.
''I...no...not anymore at least.'' she replied, after hesitated for a moment. She didn't know why she was opening up to the blond, especially since yesterday she had something contrary to his advances yesterday.
''What happened?''
''His name was Adder and he was an Ace pilot. He was intelligent, confident, and he didn't know when to back down from a challenge,'' The red-head sadly chuckled. ''Sorta of like you.''
''What happened?''
''It happened during an infiltration mission. I was just supposed to retrieve Megas and Adder would cover me. While waiting for the Virus one of our hackers created to upload I started doing a little research myself. When I first heard of the plan about retrieving Megas I was a little skeptical. A single Mech being the key to annihilating a war empire like the Glorft, but Adder, he was sure it would work. But I wanted to gather some information just in case too much hope was being put into a prototype. That decision led the Glorft to discovering us early as an alarm went off just as I finished downloading the information.
With Megas being an incomplete Prototype it wasn't built with weapons or most of its systems completed. With the Prototype in hand I blasted a hole through the facility and began escaping. The time that could have been used for escaping instead allowed one of the Glorft to get one their cannons in place. A cannon powered by a rare ore upon which fired would take them weeks to gather enough materials for another shot. These cannons were often saved for Battle ships and such. It was at that moment I realized just how important Megas was. Adder...had used too much of his mech's power trying to cover for the both of us. When the cannon was fired Adder activated the teleport function in his mech. This peace of technology was unique because it could teleport other objects across long distances of space. He sacrificed himself to save me. His last words were 'Kiva...you and the Prototype are the future. Protect the Earth...Protect the people.'
''He sounded like he was a great man. Don't worry Commander, we'll get back to your time and wipe out the Glorft. I promise you that...'' Even with this promise the look of sadness didn't leave Kiva's face. She once more began to talk.
''After that incident I trained myself to the breaking point. Physically, mentally, and emotionally I trained myself to be the perfect pilot for Megas. It was what Adder would have wanted. I just wished I could have...''
''I'm sure he knew,'' Naruto offered up, trying to console her. It didn't surprise her that this intelligent and tough woman had a softer side. Even now she was trying to stay strong. Her people, 31st century Earth was counting on her. ''We're here...'' He stated, parking in a parking spot halfway in the parking lot. Both lanes on three sides next to him were empty, but knowing fate some ass-hole would be parked out next to him when they came out. ''This is the Mall!'' He explained, remembering her confusion when he first brought it up.
That reminded him that he was going to have to work out some kind of schedule. More often than not he always retained a younger age and posed as a high school student from a wealthy back ground, but in his travels where Mechs and Mobile suits were involved he had to step up and assumed the form of an adult with a defined back ground and a job. Which with Kiva being from a Millennia from now in the future and knowing little knowledge of this time period was going to take a bit of work.
''Shop-N-Drop should have clothes in every style from Punk rocker, to Barbie Girls, and to Goths or whatever style people enjoy."
''Hahaha...welcome, WELCOME! I'm Jenny how may I help you!'' Inquired a long blonde haired, Twenty-something employee. She was remarkably cute and perky as well with a slender figure and cheery air about her. ''Here at Shop-N-Drop we guarantee if you find something you'll like, you'll end up shopping until you start a-dropping.''
Naruto shrugged, so their intros, catch phrases, and other things needed work. They had decent clothes and that's all that matter. It may not have been the most reasonable prices, but hell he was rich...why did he care? And any guilt he felt he took care of by dropping sizable donations by private jet to where charities said they needed them. He didn't trust a lot of charities and governments in general. Filled with nothing but crooks that stole money and tried to use their positions to pass on their ideas and improve their businesses.
''Yes Jenny I would like outfits for my companion here?'' He said pointing at Kiva. ''The works...socks, shirts, shoes, jackets, and everything else. Just put it on...'' Naruto went through his pocket and pulled out his credit card. He ran his finger across the cards until he became across one. ''This card right here!'' For a moment he swore he saw dollar signs in the woman's eyes. Meh! Maybe he was watching too many cartoons which reminded him he needed to get the last two seasons of Looney Toons on DVD and the New Manga book of 'Ninja!' Despite its name this series depicted the true meaning of shinobi. Useful and highly attractive Kunoichi using their sex appeal to kill the enemy. Poison being used on the regular along with assassinations from the dark. All shinobi wore dark colors unless the mission suggested otherwise and all the different perspectives were shown to have both good and bad points.
''Hey! What are you doing!'' Kiva cried out as Jennifer tried to measure her.
''I have to get your measurements if I'm going to pick out clothes for you.'' the perky blonde informed her.
''Excuse my companion; she's the type with fifty copies of the same outfit.''
Jennifer mouthed 'O' and nodded understandably. Anyone who watched cartoons or anime knew what Naruto was talking about. Naruto had to fight back a chuckle as Kiva shot him an annoyed look.
''You can either stop fidgeting or I could hold you down and let Jennifer measure you then.'' he added with an amused look.
Kiva's eyes widened at disbelief. ''You wouldn't?''
''Oh?'' He decided to have some fun with her. ''Who's to say I wouldn't? Can you say you know me enough to where I wouldn't do it? The ladies always say I have such nice and muscular arms.''
The look of annoyance intensified but the Commander remained impassive.
''Right this way!'' Jennifer chirped as she led Kiva to a changing room with clothes in hand.
Naruto sat on the bench and waited for Kiva to change. When she came out he nearly had to do a double take.
''How do I look?'' She asked uncertainty in her voice. She was wearing a black, nice fitting top that ended just above her stomach with a long red skirt with trims and black boots.
''Dayum!'' Some guy in the back ground cried out only for his girlfriend to slap him. The people nearby took notice of the 31st century pilot and started muttering similar sentiments.
Naruto covered his mouth and exhaled. Kiva wasn't joking when she said she worked out. Parts of her bodies were well-defined with thin layers of muscle that could only come about from weight training. A lot of women Naruto met usually had nice perky breasts, decent to nice long legs and a pretty well shape form in general. Genetics were naturally kind to them, but the woman before him worked herself to her current condition. Like a piece of art sculpted for perfection. Not a blemish or a single scar amazingly enough. Could it had been some sort of advance medical technology in the future? Either way Naruto turned to Jennifer and told her, ''Charge it!'' He was ready to see the next outfit.
Naruto nearly fell out of his seat at the next one. Kiva came out wearing a knee-length blue and white dotted Pajama top with a pajama cap. His eyes were glued to her legs.
''Sir...um sir...''
''Huh?'' He paused for a moment. ''Oh right...charge!"'
The only regret he had so far today was that he couldn't see Kiva modeled off her new Lingerie and unmentionables.
While Kiva trusted Naruto's ability to help her pick out clothes to blend in, she was pretty sure she would find no situation where she would be in that little clothing. Afterwards they picked up other things, Toothpaste, bed supplies, womanly things and other such essentials which was quite awkward for the both of them at times.
Though, that awkwardness subsided once the two returned to Naruto's place. As the clones put everything away Naruto called Kiva over as he took out a form. ''I need to know enough about you to form a Bio Commander.''
''Why? I appreciate your help so far, but why would you need a Bio when I plan on returning to my time as soon as the drive is fixed?''
''There's no telling how long that will take. Weeks, Months, or maybe even a year or two. The people here in New Jersey may be a bit daft, but eventually Government officials who do show up in this area will be a bit suspicious about a woman who seems to know little next to nothing about the U.S. let alone anything related to the time period of this world. So we need to forge you a background and sneak it into the national database. That and getting history classes or a job will be easier?''
''Classes? Jobs?''
''The first is when I'm busy and can't teach you things. If you're going to fit in then you need to know a little bit of history of this period and how things work. As for the latter I'm sure you don't want to always have to contact me for money.''
''Kiva Iana Andrew.'' She answered deciding that since there was no telling how long she was going to be there she was going to need to develop some sort of identity.
''Age?''
''23.''
''Race?''
''Mixed?''
''A mixture of what?''
''My father is mostly African American with some Native American roots. My mother is mixed, her father African American and her mother Caucasian, with some Irish descent from that line.''
''Blood type?''
''O+...''
''Okay next is height and weight then we'll get on to the next series of questions.''

Chapter End

Yeah no action. I know...don't worry some fan favorite themes of this show will still be included. I just wanted to do some real character development and back ground. Since a lot of anime/cartoons/ etc., are too lazy to develop interesting characters you have to go with what you work with.
Anyway I was thinking with someone serious and no-nonsense as Kiva it would take something pretty convincing to stake the human's race future on one Mech. And from the sound of things the Glorft pretty much won so why build the prototype at all? I wanted to give real reasons and I hope you all enjoyed them.
I don't remember much, but I think few instances of the future are shown. I think there was an Earth Armada or something. Anyway I will cover more depictions of Future earth later on. Originally I was going to start with Kiva coming across the blue prints of Naruto's many weapon ideas among things, but I decided to save it until next chapter. Feel free to review and have all Megas Fans review. Seeing as most of the stories hardly making it past the 5K mark.
