Other world chimera [Naruto fanfic]

Tomoka felt her throat close against her will. Her mouth felt dry and her chest felt tight. Anxiety and fear took a hold of her as time slowed down around her. This wasn’t the first time something like this had happened. It wouldn’t be the last either. 

 

The logical side of herself engaged in a battle against her emotional side. She knew that her girls would never leave her. She knew that should her plans infringe on their bottom line they would let her know. She knew that her plans could be dismissed and changed. Above all else she knew that as long as they communicated with each other any and all conflicts could, and would, be resolved. 

 

All of that knowledge mattered little against her trauma. Tomoka was well aware of how broken she had been. She is well aware of how broken she still is. Abandonment issues had been deeply rooted in her physique to the point she couldn’t open up to others. She literally couldn’t, her mind recoiled at the thought of being hurt again, of being abandoned again with such force it made her feel physically sick. 

 

Her girls were an entirely different story. They had managed to worm their way into her broken heart before rebuilding it around themselves. They were the only two people Tomoka truly cared about. She would of course feel saddened should her parents die, she would feel betrayed should Kurama decide to leave. In the end it wouldn’t matter all that much to her. 

 

Hinata and Nozomi on the other hand… should they decide to abandon Tomoka it would break her in a way others wouldn’t be able to fix her. Even so, should they choose to leave her out of their own free will then… she would let them go. Of course she would do everything in her power to try and change their mind as long as she didn’t infringe on their free will.  

 

Even so, the mere thought of being abandoned once more hurt her. It was a pain like no other, one she couldn’t put to words. It wasn’t physical, no physical pain could compare. She would rather have her body broken mercilessly than feel this pain. 

 

One disadvantage of having such a powerful brain is the almost limitless time she had to get lost in thought. She could spend the equivalent of days, even months thinking while only a second or two went by in real time. This allowed her to rehearse her response for as long as she wanted… on the other hand, it was a form of self torture as her mind drifted towards all possible outcome, more often than not the bad ones. 

 

Her logical side told her that none of them would come unless she decided to do something extreme. Even then, her girls would try and figure out what had gone wrong with her before even entertaining the thought of condemning her. The calculations and personality simulations said so. Then again, there was an infinitesimally small chance that the simulations were wrong.

 

Sometimes Tomoka hated her emotions. Anxiety and fear were becoming her two most hated. Sometimes she entertained the idea of mutilating her emotions again, removing those that made her uncomfortable. Those times she thought of her girls, of the effort it had taken to put herself back together. She thought of the numbness and coldness that had colored most of her new life. She had sworn to herself to never do such a horrible thing to herself, or others for that matter. For her girls she would keep that promise no matter how uncomfortable some emotions could be at times. 

 

Tomoka made her decision, she couldn’t keep hiding in her thoughts. Nothing good would come from doing so, not to mention it would mean being trapped in her own mind by a choice of cowardice. Taking a deep breath Tomoka calmed her mind as the normal flow of time resumed for her. 

 

“...It’s nothing malicious. Using nanobots I would modify the brains of everybody to redirect their destructive tendencies towards constructive ones. People wouldn’t committee crimes for the simple reason that the idea would feel impractical. For those that actually tried to, they would feel increasingly extreme amounts of discomfort while performing the act.  

 

The last line of defense so to say would be for the nanobots to momentarily paralyze whoever actually did the action. At that point a police force would take care of the rest. The person would be sent to a reeducation center for reformation.

 

This isn’t only for crime mind you, the AI in charge would keep constant watch on everyone as to guarantee a peaceful and meaningful life for everyone. The entire system would be a meritocracy as well, with those that are willing to put the effort to succeed doing so. 

 

The new mizukage is already part of the project with at least two thirds of the population of Kiri already under the influence of the nanobots. Kiri is currently experiencing a boom in its economy and the land is recovering well. Overall, it shows that this plan works well and could be implemented world wide.”

 

Silence, once Tomoka finished with her explanation, silence reigned in the room. The tension in the air made Tomoka’s worries flare. Her heart was beating wildly as she analized her girl’s expressions with great scrutiny. The wait was driving her insane.

 

“Are we… have you…” The first to talk was Nozomi trying to put a rather delicate question into words. Had they been reprogrammed already? Tomoka didn’t need to hear the full question to understand. It felt like a blow to her gut, the mere thought that she would ever infringe on their free will made her guts twist and turn painfully.

 

“I WOULD NEVER!” Tomoka shouted, denying it with all her might. The thought of doing something like that to them made her feel sick, filthy it made her want to peel her skin right off her body in an attempt to get rid of the filth she felt sticking to her. 

 

Both girls recoiled hearing Tomoka’s shout. Seeing her expression of desperation and loathing made them worry. The girl looked one step away from a mental breakdown. They had forgotten how fragile Tomoka could be. 

 

“Why not? Afterall, you yourself said that it's not malicious.” Though Hinata hated herself for pushing Tomoka like that she needed to know. She is more than willing to cross a few lines but enslaving her whole race felt like a step too far.  

 

“I… It's… I trust you, you two are the only people I truly trust. You two are the loves of my life, you two are the anchors that keep me barely sane. I need you two to be yourselves above all else. I need you two to be the sane thoughts to stave off my insanity.

 

I need you two to tell me when I am going too far, and I need you two to set up the rules I shouldn’t break. If… if I were to-” Tomoka stopped she needed to take a deep breath to stave off the gut wrenching nausea she felt towards the words she needed to speak next. 

 

“If I were to… change the two of you, what stops me from doing so again? What stops me from… from-” Tears began to flow out of Tomoka’s eyes, black tears like sticky goop clouding her vision. 

 

“From degrading you two into… salves! Slaves that I could corrupt into whatever my deranged mind wished.” At that mount Tomoka was breathing hard she was clenching her hands so hard blood flowed between her fingers. The black goop-like tears fell to the floor followed by an acidic sizzle as they ate through the reinforced metal. 

 

“I… I…” Before Tomoka could say another word Hinata took her in her arms. The black goop melting her clothes yet leaving her skin unscathed. Feeling Hinata’s gentle hug, Tomoka began to cry harder, the black tears replaced by normal salty ones. 

 

She hated the thought, she abhorred the idea of losing her girls to her own insanity. Tomoka hated herself for even mentioning the possibility. It drove her insane to think that she could ever twist her loved ones into mere puppets to satisfy whatever insanity she might fancy next. 

 

“It’s alright, we are here. We aren’t going anywhere.” Hinata whispered to the crying Tomoka. 

 

“We trust you to make the right decisions. It’s fine, we will never leave you.” This time Nozomi, who had taken to hug Tomoka’s back, whispered her own comforting words. 

 

They remained like that for a long time, whispering sweet nothings to the shaken girl. It was at times like this that Nozomi and Hinata realized how dependent Tomoka was on them. Despite all her intelligence and charisma Tomoka was still just as broken as before. The only difference now being that she had people to lean on. 

 

After an hour Tomoka felt calm enough to end the hugging session though she didn’t feel comfortable letting go of the girl's hands just yet. Her mind that had been in turmoil decided to rip off the bandaid she needed to know their answer. She needed to know if her plans needed corrections or if she needed to outright stop and discard them. 

 

“So… what d-do you think of the plan?” Tomoka asked in a weak, somewhat hoarse voice. 

 

“I think it's fine, though you should let us see what laws you have established for any corrections.” Nozomi decided that she didn’t really mind. If Tomoka’s plan would make the world a better place then what is the loss of a bit of freedom in exchange?

 

“I agree.” Hinata said simply while giving Tomoka a side hug. They remained silent for a while longer, waiting for Tomoka to stabilize herself. They had been airborne for two hours now, one more and they would reach their destination. 

 

“We should go check on the others, they should be waking up soon or already awake.” Finally Tomoka said, now calm. She felt embarrassed after breaking down like that. She wanted to leave the memory behind as soon as possible. 

 

With that in mind the trio left their room in search of the others. Well, Hinata and Nozomi did. Tomoka still had one more hard conversation left. Afterall, her parents had also been retrieved from the village and she needed to talk to them. For the time being they were free of the nanomachine’s influence. She would let them choose their next course of action. 

 

If her parents wished to go back to Konoha and fight her future plans then so be it. She would get them back anyway once she controlled the world. If they decided to stay then even better. Unfortunately rules were rules even if they had been set up by herself, no, even more so because she was the one to set them up. Only three people would remain outside the nanobots' influence: Herself, Nozomi and Hinata. 

 

A while later Tomoka stood in front of the room that had been given to her parents… well more like the room they had been thrown in while unconscious, as well as the room they had been locked in for safety reasons. Taking a deep breath Tomoka pressed the communications button. Outright opening the door would be dangerous, afterall, her parents were still elite jounin. 

 

“Mom, dad, its me, Tomoka. Please remain calm, I need to talk to you two so I will be opening the door to come inside. Please don’t try to escape the room as the automatic defense of the aircraft will subdue you if you do.” After saying that Tomoka waited a few seconds so they could digest the information before opening the door. 

 

Inside the room Tomoka saw her parents. Both had a rather nasty frown on their faces showing how displeased they were. Her mother was currently sitting on the bed while her father reclined against the back wall. 

 

“Uh… hi?” Tomoka didn’t know how to start the conversation and seeing their displeased expression didn’t make it any easier. 

 

“Don’t hi me young lady! You will be telling us what is going on right this instant or I swear you won’t be able to sit for a month straight after I am done disciplining you.” Tomoka might be an extremely powerful ninja with an entire organization made by herself with super advanced tech. Even so Himiko could still put the fear of herself in the young girl. Mothers, no matter what are scary. 

 

Taking a deep breath, Tomoka prepared herself for what was to come. She began retelling the many exploits she had performed behind her parents back as well as her plans for the future. Though it was obvious the two were having a hard time believing her they still listened without interrupting her. By the end of it silence reigned in the room.   

 

“Good riddance I say.” Suddenly Himiko spoke with a shrug. Though it felt hard to believe the fact she was currently sitting in a supper advanced room with tech she had never seen or heard of before helped her. 

 

“Wait, you're fine with it?” Tomoka was having a hard time believing what she heard. 

 

“What? We never bought in the whole will of fire spiel back then. Being a ninja was simply put, a good paying job for. Between you and me, I never liked the old third, for a dictator he was way too soft.” At this point Tomoka’s brain was shortcicuiting as she saw her father nodding along. 

 

“HOWEVER! You are in big trouble! To do all of that dangerous stuff behind our backs you are still to be punished!” Tomoka’s shock was quickly turned into dread as she saw her mother’s ‘gentle’ smile while approaching her. 

 

“Now be a good girl and accept your punishment.” Even though Tomoka could easily pass for a fifteen or sixteen year old despite being only thirteen she quickly found herself belly down on her mother’s lap. Her ass to the air bare, waiting for the punishment that was to come. 

 

“Wait! Mom! We can talk about this!” Before Tomoka could continue begging, a crisp slap resounded through the room. Her words were silenced by a gasp as she bit her lip. 

 

“None of that! You need to accept the consequences of your actions.” Soon enough Himiko’s palm impacted once again against Tomoka’s buttcheek. By the third strike Tomoka couldn’t contain her voice anymore and then…

 

A sensual moan resounded through the room as Himiko’s palm struck against Tomoka’s asscheek for the third time. Then, silence. Tomoka felt like dying there and then. She absolutely blamed Hinata for what had just happened. The girl liked spanking Tomoka’s ass too much. 

 

Himiko and Nagi became frozen in place. They hadn’t expected to hear such a sultry moan coming from their daughter from being spanked. Where had they gone wrong? Their minds tried and failed to comprehend the situation over and over again. Finally after a whole minute of silence Nagi’s brain regained some of its functions, unfortunately they were the wrong ones. 

 

“Kinky.” An even more awkward silence followed for a few seconds as the absolutely enraged expression of Himiko zeroed in on her husband. Nagi became pale as he realized the absolutely catastrophic mistake he had made. 

 

“YOU!” Before Tomoka could understand what had just happened she was flung out of the room with her shorts still down. The metal door that had opened sideways was somehow ripped off the wall before slamming shut by Himiko’s monstrous strength.    

 

“Wait, honey! I can explain!” After that Tomoka heard crashing sounds from within the room as Himiko shouted every known curse and then some towards her husband who shouted like a pig being butchered.

 

“Tomoka, I know you are still there! Save your old maaaaaaaa!” A new, even louder crashing sound was heard as Himiko probably threw a wall or something at her husband. Seeing, or rather, hearing the mayhem inside Tomoka made the smart decision she could, praying for her father’s safe ascension to the pure land. 

 

“Thank you father for your sacrifice. If it is at all possible I shall resurrect you later.” Prayed Tomoka as she quickly yet stealthily scurried away.
