UNSC Nighthawk (Prowler-class)

Planet Guntry

The crew of the ship has been watching the invasion of Planet Guntry from their cloak ship for a while now. Following orders of Admiral Danzou, they were not to interfere. They were to monitor and follow Spartan Naruto. If Naruto was ever in danger they were to interfere but he was find according to the drones following him. No matter what others may think or want, Captain Samui will follow her orders to the letter.

Dressed in her uniform she watched the large screen show a live feed of a drone watching Naruto from a large distance as a officer came up to her with a question. "Shall we deploy Silver Team to extract codename "Wolf" out?"

"Negative. He is not in danger, and he knows how to take care of himself. He also has his own ship for extraction. We shall wait, watch, and continue to feed information to the Admiral" she commanded not taking her eyes off the screen as it started to rain there.

With Naruto

It was finally late into the night with only scatters of gunfire being heard. It was even harder to hear the sounds of gunfire with the sound of heavy rain coming down. From his kneeling overwatch position he grabbed a silencer from his leg pouch and attached it to the barrel of his battle rifle. It was hard for the Covenant to see and hear them. No need to make it easier for them.

He looked up into the sky to see a patrol of a spirit and two banshee fly over searching for any stragglers but finding no one. They must have seen the building not fully built and assume no one would be hiding there.

"So, you are going to bring those four woman with you to escape the planet" spoke Kurama in his mind to which he gave a nod to. "Why? You can leave them here and make it to the ship with a flash. They will slow you down".

"Of course they will slow me down but I accepted the contract. I will accomplish this mission. You know I don't fail missions" he stated now planning the route to escape the city into the forest. He had already commanded a group of clones to park a vehicle there for them. He also used this invasion as an opportunity to go scavenging. Spare clones from the ship carrying sealing scrolls went gathering under the cover of the night.

"Yeah, I get the one woman, but what about the other three? You don't need to save them. Unless you have use for them?" she stated as he could feel the smirk on her face. "What will they be used for? Your housekeepers or maybe even your pleasure slaves? Maybe even for breeding. Any kids of yours will have all your abilities. You can make an army of powerful warriors."

"Not my intention. The twins, I can hire them as part of my crew to help maintain and protect the ship. Me saving them will make them feel indebt to me" he answered as Kurama rolled her eyes.

"God, you think so small. Stop limiting yourself to your human limitations and morals. Do whatever the fuck you want and feel. If you want them, then take them. You are not some regular human or Elemental. You are a breed of your own and the more you suppress those animal instincts the worst it gets. You were able to satisfy your inner animal with your hunts and murders but there are other things to need to satisfy. Your beast wants hunt prey, grow stronger and powerful, claim a powerful home, mate, and grow a powerful family.

You only hunt, grow, and sort have a good home with the ship. But the others you have made no progress. Take them" she warned before leaving his thoughts.

Standing up he walked to the other four staying in a huddle together for warmth. While they weren't wet as they were under a roof before it started, it was getting cold. "It's time to move" he stated gaining the groups attention.

"But it's dark and raining outside" spoke up Maria in protest. She could even get sick and injure herself was the thoughts going through her mind. "Good" answered Naruto. "This will cover are body and sounds. The time to move is now before they start glassing the area" he warned making the groups eyes widen. They all knew about the Covenant's glassing. No one could survive that and even if you did hide in a bunker. The outside chemicals, heat, and other remaining hazards would kill you after.

Seeing the group nod in agreeance he continued on. "We will move low and quick on the sidewalk towards the forest to the Northeast. Don't fire unless you have to and alert me if you see anything. I have a silenced weapon. We step off in two minutes" he finished before walking off to the edge to relook the route he was going to take.

Within two minutes the group took off into the rain with Naruto taking the lead and the twins pulling up the rear. Within running the first street they hadn't run into any ground patrols but they did had to hide from a few air patrols. The next two blocks were the same until the block after that, they ran into a small patrol.

A single elite in blue armor with four regular grunts were walking down the middle of the street as if they own it. Pulling the group to a halt behind a car he quickly scanned the area to see if they were alone to which they were. With a quick confirmation of that he pulled out a single kunai and told the group to stay there.

Moving to the edge of the car he through his kunai at them in lighting fast speeds and formed hand seals to make the single turn into three dozen to which Jean noticed with wide eyes. Not hearing this with the rain covering it, they flew through the air and smacked into the patrol with a heavy impact sending them flying. The five bodies were dead before they even hit the ground in a roll. Moving up to the bodies, he did a quick look to make sure they were dead before grabbing their weapons and some of their gear and sealing them into a scroll. Moving back to the group he signaled them to follow them to which they did.

That was the only confrontation they had with the Covenant as they finally made it to the tree line. Sprinting into the trees, they followed after him to come across a passenger warthog with three beings in black armor with a black visor skull mark helmet. Upon seeing Naruto they went up in smoke signaling that they were clones to which conform Jean's thoughts.

"You're an elemental. You made that knife multiply, put those items into that scroll, and now those men going up in smoke. That was all Elemental techniques" she stated as Naruto gave her nod confirming it as he hopped into the driver's seat. Kara had hoped into the passenger seat as the rest hopped into the back.

"I never knew that they made a Elemental a spartan. Are the other Spartan's elemental's as well?" she questioned. "No. I'm a unique case" he stated turning the vehicle on but keeping the lights off for stealth.

Putting the vehicle into gear he took off into the forest at a fast speed as his helmet provided him night vision to see in the dark. With expert driving he avoided all the obstacles in his way as the others in the vehicle could only barley see the surrounding trees and environment move by.

"Where are we going?" questioned Kara as they all knew the space port was destroyed by now and no UNSC reinforcements arrived confirming Naruto's statement from before. "To our ride out of here" he answered as the vehicle slowed to a stop. In front of them was a large crack which hid much to the groups surprise, a UNSC frigate.

"What is this doing here!?" shouted Maria as they hop out of the vehicle. "It's my ship. Now we need to get moving. Hold on to my clones" he answered making four clones to carry them and sealed the warthog into a scroll. With a leap off the edge they free fall straight towards the frigate. Pushing chakra into his legs he soften his landing upon connecting to the top of the ship. Moving towards the top hatch he pulled it open allowing for everyone to climb down, before getting in himself.

Within Ship

The newcomers were looking around the ship in awe as they saw more of those clones moving about in the bay. They were mostly unsealing items and putting them up in certain areas and piles. Seeing that they were distracted, Naruto moved away towards the bridge in order to get a updated situation on the surrounding area.

"Report" called Naruto sitting in the command chair and removing his helmet. Kora appearing on the holo table, faced him and started giving him a report on the surrounding area and a recommended route to escape the Covenant.

"It seems like you were preparing to leave the second we boarded"

: You know it : she answered with a smile.

"But your path puts us in the path of a patrol" he stated pointing at a image on the table showing a patrol of five banshees.

: It's that or the Covenant ships. We can launch the ship while simultaneously launch missiles at the patrol in order to escape. The Covenant are not expecting a frigate to be hiding here and we can use that surprise to escape : she explained as the doors to the bridge opened to reveal Maria and Jean drying themselves off with a towel.

: You know you could have changed into some spare clothes instead of soaking everything you touch : stated Kora looking at some of the water dripping off them and onto the floor.

"There are more pressing matters then getting dry. Like getting off this planet alive" spoke Maria using the towel to remove more water from her hair. Seeing a chair not being used behind Naruto, she decided to sit in that one as Jean stood next to her.

: Sure sit and soak whatever seat you like :

"Kora, we can take care of that later. Initiate the travel route before the window closes" he ordered as Kora gave a nod and face forward.

:All weapons are armed. Launching the ship! You better hold on to something : warned Kora as the ship started to shake as it left the ground and moved upward.

The ship's lower thrusters pushed the ship into a climb until it reached above the tree line. Upon reaching above the trees, all the rear engines ignited allowing for the ship to move through the sky. Pulling up into a straight climb the ship ejected four missiles from its back just as a patrol came on their sensors.

The banshees pulled up into a climb pursing them just as the missile's thrusters ignited and locked onto them. Unable to move away in time the missiles smacked directly into them destroying them in rapid succession. Continuing with increasing their speed the ship took off into orbit as the ship's scanners started tracking more patrols incoming.

Upon reaching space the patrols started closing in as the ship started firing rounds and missiles constantly to keep them back. With a clear path in front of them Kora activate the ship slipspace drive forming a blue portal in front of them. Moving full power forward they entered it just before the patrols came into range. Using the UNSC strategy Kora would have the ship jump from random spot to the next in order to lose any ship that tried to pursue them.

Naruto turning his chair around looked at the next issue to face which was the two in the room and the two twins that just entered the bridge. What should he do with them? Follow Kurama's advice or just drop them off and be done with them?
