Dr. Franxx sighed as he read the reports. Code 002's memories were somewhat suppressed, not wiped, much to his disappointment. However, the biggest issue was Code 000.
"Memory wipe, failed. Memory suppression, failed." He read the reports and did not like what he read. Like before, the boy's mind was incapably of being manipulated by artificial means. That, and his tendency to defy the guards and authorities, would mean that the boy would be harder and harder to control as he grew.
"I should put him in the same cell as 002. Having him attached to someone should allow us to control to some degree…" He thought. The boy did attempt to save her at the risk of being caught. Maybe it would be wise to have the boy get attached to her so that they maybe able to control him to some degree. With a final nodded he wrote down some notes before getting up and heading out to what was needed.
Unknown Room:
Pain, that was all he could feel from being shot at a day ago. His wounds had already healed mostly, but the blood-stained bandages were still on him, and they were starting to itch. He grunted as he tried to take of them off, but the pain was still there. Even if the wounds were healed, that didn't mean his nervous felt any less pain..
"Stop, let yourself recover first."There it was, that voice inside of his head again. He didn't know what it was or who it belonged to, only that it had always tried to help him.
"O-Ok…" 000 muttered out, huddling in the corner of the white room. He hated this color, it was so…stale, so empty. He was broken out of his thoughts as door to the room opened and guard marched in with that same red skinned girl in his hand. The guard harshly threw her into the room before he turned and left, securing the door behind him. The girl twitched in pain before she collected herself and huddled into the far side of the room with nothing more than rags.
"A-Are you ok?" 000 questioned her, causing her to tremble in fear as she looked up, fear in her eyes as she looked at him. The blond child frowned slightly, that was not the reaction he was expecting. He stood up from his corner and carefully approached her before kneeling down in front of her.
"Hey…" He started as the girl flinched and tried to retreat further into the corner as Naruto extend his hand out. She closed her eyes shut, fearing that once again she would be subjected to a sick experiment. However, she wasn't met with the harshness that she had expected, only a soft hand on the top of her head. Slowly, she looked up and saw not the cold black stares that she was usually subjected to. Rather, she saw deep ocean blue eyes and a smile on his face. It felt so…warm…so comforting.
"Arg…" She tried to say something, anything, but she had no knowledge of the language he spoke, or anyone spoke for that matter.
"Do you…remember me?" The boy questioned her, to which she gave him a confused look.
"Aw?" She questioned, with him not even understanding anything at all. However, he could tell she didn't remember, but, how was this possible?
"Her memory has been altered." The voice spoke in his head, causing his eyes to slightly widen. They altered her memory like they tried to alter his? The voice in his head had told him of their attempts and he had no reason to not believe the voice in his head. It had done nothing but help him, teach him, and healed him. As far as he was concerned, the voice was a friend.
"My name is Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto introduced himself. It was one of the first things the voice inside of his head had told him, his name.
"N-Naa?" She tried to pronounce his name, but nothing could come out of it. Naruto sighed, she wouldn't be able to hold a conversation with anyone at this rate.
"Na-Ru-To." Naruto broke down his name for her to better understand it.
"N-Na-Ra-t?" She tried, but Naruto shook his head. She was close, but not quite.
"Na-Ru-To." He tried once again, but she tiled her head in confusion, before her eyes slight widened, as f an idea came to her mind.
"D-Daling!" She proclaimed happily, pointing at him. For some reason, she felt as if it was the right thing to call him. Naruto blinked in confusion, that word seemed familiar to him, as if he had heard her say it before.
"No, Na-Ru-To." He tried to correct her, but she simply grinned happily and shook her head.
"Daling! Daling!" She said over and over, causing Naruto to sigh. He supposed it was better than nothing.
"Yh, that's it…" He said as he sat down next to the happy girl. He found her pink hair and red horns to be quite charming, and her skin color was also…captivating.
"Typical Namikaze…" The heard the voice say lowly but paid no mind to it for now. The girl had most of his attention with wanting to play with him or do anything. He noticed that ankle cuff on her and noticed the number.
"002?" He read the number on the cuff as she looked down and nodded. Naruto sighed before he laid back to the wall. Well, at least he would have someone other then the voice in his head to talk too.
"Daling!" Well, somewhat limited communication due to her vocabulary.
Many Years Later:
Years had passed since that day, the day he was thrown into the same room as 002 and it had been years since he had seen her. When she was around fourteen they had taken her away from him, separated the two with them knowing where the other was.
"If it wasn't for your threat, I would have already broken free and found her." Naruto growled at Dr. Franxx, who merely chuckled.
"Don't worry, you'll see her soon." Dr. Franxx stated as Naruto grunted in the chair of the transport as he turned look outside the window of the cockpit. He worse a red and white uniform with black military boots and had green flight googles adoring his forehead, which slightly pushed his blond bangs up.
"You have been saying that since the past 4 years." Naruto grunted out dangerously. The doctor purposefully kept the blond separated from 002 because he had grown attached to her, just as he had planned. Naruto hated that he couldn't find 002 and if he didn't do what the doctor wanted, then he threatened to have 002 killed. He hated that thought and he hated it more that he had power, but the second he used it against the doctor 002 would be killed.
"Everything in due time." The Doctor said with an eye smile as Naruto huffed before closing his eyes, which had a slight red hue to them. Dr. Franxx hummed as he stroked his chin, thinking over his past choices. His plan to separate the two worked well, and the enemy within the boy had proven more then meets the eye. He was able to manifest it on the outside and use it quite effectively. Franxx didn't know how the boy was able to do so, and he didn't even know how the boy learned it to being with! When asked, all he would say was the voice inside of his head.
"Paraphs there's more to that seal." He thought, wondering what exactly that seal meant, even Naruto didn't know what it was, or he refused to tell, he didn't really know which one the truth was.
"Whatever." Naruto muttered as he waited with arms crossed. Apparently, today he would be meeting 002 again and it made him wonder if she remembered him.
"Wouldn't put it past them to wipe her memory of me." He thought, frowning at that thought. If they so much as touch a hair on her he would unleash all of his power and no amount of FRANXX mecha would be able to stop his rampage.
"Calm down kit. You might be able to use my power, but past the four tails, you lose control." The voice in his head warned him with a grunt as Naruto adopted a thoughtful look.
"And why can't I control past four tails, Kurama?" Naruto questioned the voice in his head, which was really inside of is gut or where ever that seal put Kurama. Apparently, he was born with a nine tailed fox, who was known Kyuubi. It was always talking about being stuck inside the seal for a third time and inside an Uzumaki no less, other then that the fox talked little of Naruto's or his own origins.
"Because your too emotional and quick to anger. That and all that pent-up anger causes you to lose control quite quickly. In-fact, the only reason you can even use four tails of my power is because I allow you to. If you forcefully tried, you would lose control when you hit the first tail." Kurama explained as Naruto nodded to himself, seems logical.
"And why help me? I never understood that." The blond questioned, wondering if Kurama hated being inside the seal so much, why would he help him?
"…" Kurama didn't say anything, causing Naruto to sigh before cutting the connection. The fox would always go quite when it came to such questions.
"Oh, it seems we are almost here." The old doctor commented as he looked down at the massive Plantation from the transport. However, Naruto was not pleased.
"Why you people chose to live inside of those foolish things is beyond me. The world is perfectly fine, even with the Klaxosaur threat." Naruto stated as he looked down at the large domed city.
"And I've told you it is exactly because of the Klaxosaur threat we have been forced to live inside them." Franxx reasoned, though he knew there was one other reason.
"Are you sure that is the only reason?" Naruto questioned the doctor with narrowed eyes, there was more than just the Klaxosaur threat.
"No, there isn't." Dr. Franxx replied, showing little to no emotions, like he always did unless something that fascinated him happened. Naruto, however, was not convince. There had to be another reason. However, he was broken out of his thoughts when the alarms began to go off.
"A Klaxosaur has been spotted near Plantation 13!" One of the operators shouted as everyone was thrown in a slight panic, other then Naruto and Dr. Franxx.
"Oh? A Mohorovic-Class?" Dr. Franxx said with slight curiosity, though other then that he seemed unconcerned.
"Whatever. Just let those mecha's handle it." Naruto said as he leaned back into his chair. A Mohorovic-Class? A Klaxosaur of that size and class wasn't even a challenge to him given his special…abilities.
"Oh? Not wanting to fight one today?" Franxx questioned as Naruto threw a glare at him.
"Unless you 'order' me to, I won't." Naruto stated as the old doctor chuckled slightly.
"I don't think I'll have to order you." The old man replied as Naruto narrowed his eyes. What did he mean by that?
"But doctor, 002 is on that plantation!" Nana, a caretaker of the Parasite, warned the doctor. 002 was an asset they could not afford to lose, that and the plantation's FRANXX pilots hadn't even operated a real FRANXX before. This left the plantation undefended, even with it's various weapons, it would stand no chance against a Klaxosaur of that class.
"You worry too much, Nana." The old doctor replied casually, as if nothing was wrong.
"But doctor!" She protested, but he waved her away.
"Naruto has the situation under control." He stated as Nana blinked before turning to the seat where Naruto was supposed to be.
"Where is Code 000?!" She questioned the guards frantically. They were supposed to keep an eye on him dammit!
"W-We don't know!" One of the guards answered. He didn't even see or notice the blond leave the cockpit! Nana cursed as she turned to look back outside the cockpit. Just where the hell did he go?
With Naruto:
Naruto quickly ran though the halls of the large transport as he rounded the corner, seeing the emergency exit door.
"H-Hey! Halt!" One of the guards shouted, attempting to block the blond, but it was futile.
"Out of the way!" Naruto shouted as he threw the guard to the other side before punching the emergency door with such force that the shock wave pushed the transport away from its course for a while as Naruto jumped out of the transport, free falling straight towards the Klaxosaur.
"Time to meet your maker." Naruto said as strange red energy began to bubble around him as his whiskers darkened and the red hue in his eyes became more pronounced with a hint of yellow. Just another Klaxosaur he would have to kill before finally being able to see her again.
So? How was it? Like it? Hate it? Leave a review or a like! Before I forget anything, this is a single pairing and IF it becomes a harem, and I mean IF, then it's gonna be only two girls, no more, no less, a master and a – ok, enough Yoda talk. This isn't no Star Wars crossover! That will be updated later down the road! With that out of the way, bye!
