Finishing up my story Naruto, Honora and Itachi looked amazed, Itachi less so as he hid behind a cup of green tea that he had ordered half way through my story. Hinata was laughing and smiling as she made mock punches in the air. She was way too cute sometimes, i wondered if my own kids would be this cute when they reached her age. Snapping away from their lack of reaction Naruto and Honora began to look on towards me with supreme care, concerns of my power filling their minds.
'These kids...'
"Look, you two can't just stay here all the time. Would you like to join the Military Academy or a normal school?"
Naruto became cautious as Honora began to scowl a little, her eyes trained on my face as if she was analysing my every movement and facial expression to see if I was doing this with evil intentions or for my own gains. To be honest it would be nice to have Naruto and hi sister within the Military or Society in general, but it wasn't exactly needed. Just a cool idea I came up with. Now, seeing as they were young they couldn't spot anything on my face and soon began to discuss amongst themselves whilst Itachi glanced at them and sighed a little. I could feel he had something to ask.
"Itachi, what do you want to ask?" He looked momentarily surprised but quickly took another sip of green tea before his young eyes glazed over somewhat.
"Hmmm, I wanted to ask you about the Uchiha's position in society."
"What about it?" This was coming from left field so I was a little on the edge of my seat in anticipation of his answer, my powers of sifting through possibilities being turned off ever since the end of the battle with the Chthonian being.
"What is it you wish us to do? I know we are serving in the military, but is that all? Are we just tools of war?" His eyes regained their colour as they soon switched into the Mangekyo Sharingan, his eyes spinning as he looked at me. I was laughing my ass off in my head. 'Is that seriously all he is asking?'
"Heh, no, you aren't just tools of war. You are citizens, you can do whatever you wish; so long as its within the law. War is just a thing your clan does well in. I am sure, however, that there are other things that your clan is superb at that doesn't include bloodshed." He seemed to clam down emotionally as he continued to stare at my own eyes with his Mangekyo. It was a futile attempt by a teenager to make it seem as if he was strong, i wouldn't stop him however as that would only alienate him and make him more emo when dealing with me in future. 'Let him make his little power play for now, i just need to make sure he doesn't think I am intimidated by it in future.'
He nodded before deactivating his eye powers, his green tea coming to his mouth as Naruto sat there patiently. I turned my head in his and his sister's direction, cocking my head to the side as Hinata pulled on my shirt.
"Mummy, could you tell me some more?"
"Sure, mum will tell you in your head, okay?"
She nodded cutely before closing her eyes, as if she were waiting to pick up a phone call in her head. 'Hehe, so cute...' Naruto and Honora looked at me, nodding at each other before Naruto began to speak.
"We want to join the Academy, Dattebayo!"
His sister facepalmed as she seemed to cringe at the Dattebayo, my own mirth hid behind a layer of tactful grace, enforced by my rulership over emotions. Itachi's right eye twitched in annoyance as this 'Dattebayo' was the source of his chagrin this last week. Hinata just scrunched her face up as she was really concentrating on hearing my voice in her head. I began to transmit memories of tame fights to Hinata as I nodded at Naruto; sealing off Hinata's hearing as well whilst i was at it.
"Good, I am glad you will be able to meet other people within my nation. I'll get one of my wives to handle the paperwork... You are citizens yes?" They both nodded in confirmation as a small smile emerged onto my face.
"Great!"
...
After spending some more time with Hinata and the three others I set off again, sending Hinata to my apartment where she would be taken in by Selene as she took her to the same classes my other children went to, Itachi agreeing to teach her Ninja skills over time. This time I was on my way towards the central tower where Skadi, Kali and Emma would be. Emma had recently taken to helping Pixel out, something about wife bonding and secret photo sharing. I didn't really mind anyway, they hurt nothing and were ultimately very cute as they socialised with each other. My wives were the best, that was for sure.
Landing at the control tower I very quickly hijacked my wives' conversation and began speaking on the recent developments of the space industry across Terra. It was going very well actually, with Elon Musk and several other entrepreneurs fighting for the chance to become the first company in space, the first people to mine an asteroid, etc. Tony was also in on the race as he was focussing on the military application of Nanite technology within constructs and civilian spacecraft. This came from the fact that I did not share Hard light technology with the private sector and this also included many of the technologies we had in our possession. Emma's company was also interested in space travel, but more for the trade opportunities as most of their company dealt with trading between Atlantis and other cities across the globe.
Happy with the progress I began to consider adding more expansion to Atlantis. My wives were in support and wanted me to make sure it was a beautiful but useful addition. Giving my wives kisses I ran off, like a fat kid in a candy store. I looked down at the 17 trillion Reality Shards I have and began to look through my options.

'Buy them all.'

From there I quickly began to place down the enhancements and watched as the city gained a large amount of floating pathways and bike roads, antigravitation technology being used to sustain the bridge. Aerial platforms formed that floated harmlessly adjacent to the walk ways and allowed for pedestrian access to said platforms. There were energy barriers around the edges to make sure no one fell off. Additionally there were large hexagonal arrays on many of the large towers that slowly shifted in a 360 degree radius, the clouds in the sky, which were grey just a minute ago, becoming white and fluffy. The temperature was perfect and seemed to be superbly comfortable for human living. On the side of these buildings the garage platforms that were previously created through the transport system gained a large upgrade as there were several phone-like outlets in the walls that granted instant communication no matter the distance or possible disturbance.
Quickly taking in the changes I noticed many of the citizens realising the changes and gasping in delight as they jumped up and down, the sight i just created not being uncommon in Atlantis. Shaking my head I emerged on the outskirts of the city and placed down the new districts, the transportation system immediately linking to these new districts. At the same time, i noticed that there were small little grooved holes in the buildings throughout the immense city. When i gazed within them with my eyes i saw a large collection of turrets, small in nature but thrumming with plasma. This was very cool and although we had some outer defence platforms these would ensure the safety of Atlantis from the sky; if the planetary shield or the megastructure wasn't enough.
With glee I watched the new districts emerge and merge into the existing enhancements. My eyes constantly flickered back to the system shop and I began to eye the different possibilities.
