Hey everyone, this is the Prologue to my first crossover. Those of you whom have seem my previous story, which was put on hold because of what's happening in the Naruto manga, hopefully already read my status. Those of you that are reading one of my stories for the first time, thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope you all continue to read this as I keep writing them. Now there will be a paring in here which is going to be Naruto/Yang and Sasuke/Ruby possibly, but it's not set in stone because I'm still debating who to pair the two with. I will say this ahead of time. I will not be doing a harem even if any of you ask. I'm sorry, but I don't care for harems too much plus they're not my forte, so I'd probably end up making a terrible story. They will also not be godlike or strong at first and you'll see the reason why in the story. I will follow the story for the most part, but there are times where I'll probably make custom chapters for development between characters. I apologize ahead of time for any grammar/spelling errors and would appreciate it if you let me know about any of them. I think I've covered everything that I wanted to talk about, so onto the Disclaimer.

Prologue: The End of a War and a New Life
The battlefield was barren from all the destruction that had been caused by what people considered the biggest fight in the history of shinobi. A storm had started rolling in as rain began pouring upon the land as if the havens themselves were being affected from the fight for the world. All of the Shinobi Alliance stood outside a barrier that had been placed by the biggest threat ever seen, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki . Naruto and Sasuke had managed to break everyone free from the trees roots by using the Uchiha's unique Rinnegan to counteract the mass genjutsu. All ninja that knew anything about barriers were attempting to break it in order to help the only two shinobi that were inside. Both Naruto and Sasuke slammed into a rock from a devastating attack from their opponent before they landed in a crouched position. The two shinobi were breathing heavily and sweating hard both trying to figure out a way to win against this devastating enemy.
Naruto gave a quick glance at Sasuke before looking at the godlike woman before slowing down his breathe to calm himself. "I don't believe you have any thoughts on how to beat her do you? We're both almost out of chakra, although we have her on the ropes as well. We need something to end this. Do you have anything at all that can seal her away forever?" The blond haired shinobi stated to his teammate.
Sasuke had one eye open, which was revealing his unique Rinnegan. His mind was racing through many different thoughts. He personally didn't know of any jutsu that could seal them away, but his thoughts were interrupted. They suddenly jumped to the side as a couple of Gudōdama hit the spot they were just at a split second ago. Sasuke knew they needed a trump card to win against them, but nothing came to mind for him until he remember something that happened before he entered the battle with Naruto.
"You don't suppose you can talk her out of this do you? You seem to be very good at that." Sasuke stated in a mocking tone as Naruto gave him a glare telling him to shut up. "In all seriousness I have something that stop her, but the only problem is I need all attention off of me for it to work as well as she needs to be within at least ten meters of me." Sasuke stated in a serious tone.
Naruto smirked a bit at the comment as he immediately formulated a battle plan. "If that's all you need, then I'm your guy, teme. They don't call me the number one unpredictable ninja for nothing ya know? You remember our fight with Zabuza?"
The Uchiha gave a knowing look as Naruto threw down a smoke bomb, and the two held up a familiar hand sign for a certain shinobi in particular. Kaguya had a calm look upon her face not showing an ounce of fear to what just had happened. In truth, she was at first playing with the two young men, although ever since releasing the other shinobi from the Tsukoyomi she had been weakened considering chakra couldn't be taken from them anymore. She raised an eyebrow at they're actions and chuckled a bit.
"Do you really think some smoke is going to stop me? You truly are desperate and pathetic to use such a futile tactic on someone like me." Kaguya stated in a mocking tone and jumped out of the way as two fūma shuriken came out after her.
The Rabbit Goddess immediately followed up by going after now visible Naruto and Sasuke. Naruto jumped forward using his immense speed from the Six Paths Sage Technique and started sending a barrage of attacks causing his enemy to start being pushed back. Kaguya aimed to stab him with a lance created from the Gudōdama , but Naruto dodged and used the lance as leverage to place a kick to the goddess's chest and send her sliding backwards. The Jinchuuriki of all the Bijuu attempted to follow up with a pump to the face. Kaguya stopped this immediately by using the lance to block the kick. She proceeded to use her free arm to grab Naruto by the neck and start chocking him out followed by stabbing him in his abdomen. The blonde's eyes widened in pain as he spit blood out of his mouth. The woman had a sinister smirk on her face at the look of despair on Naruto's face.
"You're a bigger idiot than I thought attempting to attack me like that. Now just fall into despair as your dreams die. Now I just got to take care of one more nuisance and I can reactive the Infinite Tsukuyomi." The mother of Hagoromo mocked and laughed, although her laughter stopped as Naruto started chuckling himself.
"Lady, word of advice you really gotta learn not to underestimate your opponent and that I don't go down without a fight." The blond haired teen stated cryptically as he suddenly disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Kaguya's eyes widened a bit in surprise as she felt a small spike in chakra and turned around on reaction. The split second of hesitation was all Naruto needed as he was going through the air with a sage enhanced rasengan laced with wind chakra. The young shinobi immediately slammed the Rasengan into the goddess's chest and started pushing it forward grinding it into her harder before it started pushing his enemy back albeit not like it normally did. Kaguya kept himself from spinning out of control by using a lot of chakra to plant her legs firmly on the ground, although she was still be pushing back a great distance. This surprised Naruto, whom returned to his normal state, a bit as his final jutsu dissipated, and he silently cursed seeing as he used the last of his chakra. The Rabbit was breathing heavily from the attack and chuckled darkly as she looked up at Naruto with one eye opening.
"Nice try, but it seems you fell a little short." Kaguya mocked, although her eyes widened as she was suddenly pierced through his chest.
She looked down and saw an ethereal blade coming out of her. Kaguya turned her head slowly and saw Sasuke with his Susanoo covering him with a flame like blade coming out of the gourd. His head then turned back to Naruto as he realized what had happen. Sasuke was covering his left eye, which was now bleeding, and panting heavily. The young Uchiha gave Naruto a tiny smirk at the plan he had come up with. Naruto was personally surprised at what Sasuke did to Kaguya. He didn't know that his teammate possessed the Sword of Totsuka seeing as Itachi was the one that he knew had it.
Sasuke dug the blade a little further in paranoia that she would try escaping. "That one was for calling my brother a fool." He stated simply.
"The Sword of Totsuka? I didn't think I'd get to lay my eyes upon it again…." Kaguya stated in a calm manner. "I see what happened now. That smoke was just a distraction for you to make shadow clones, and transform a clone and yourself into those shuriken. You had me believe that they both were clones as you proceeded to throw those shuriken at me anticipating I'd dodge them. In order for you to keep my mind off of those shuriken you had your clone immediately attack me keeping me distract from both your intentions and your teammates. You used a second clone to throw yourself back at me with that jutsu of yours, which in turn was just a way to get me close enough to use the Sword of Totsuka on me…..your much more intelligent that I gave you credit for." The Rabbit Goddess commented to Naruto before looking at Sasuke as her body and soul started being pulled into the unescapable jutsu.
"It seems your ambitions and goals far exceed mine, which seems to have caused my downfall as well as underestimating you two. I guess the only consultation to this is that I lost to a couple of worthy opponents." The woman stated as he was completely sucked into the gourd.
Sasuke immediately fell to his knees as his eyes returned to normal. He wiped his eye from the blood as Naruto started walking over. The blond teen offered his hand to help Sasuke up, which he accepted and stood up. The barrier started slowly disappearing from the top on down. Naruto gave a laugh of relief at the fact they just won. When the barrier was gone all the two could hear were cheers of joy and praise at the feat they both accomplished. Sakura and Kakashi were among one of the first to be at the two heroes side followed by the rest of the Konoha Eleven and their other friends. The two heroes glanced at each other and gave knowing smirks and bumped fist before they suddenly fell backwards and passing out.
Naruto and Sasuke both appeared in the world where they first met the Sage of Six Paths. They looked around before Hagormo appeared in front of them with his neutral like face, although if one looked closely they would see a small look of amusement as well. Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other before looking back at the Sage.
"Well I knew I placed my trust in the right people to fix my mistakes that I made in the past. As an old man I thank you for doing me this favor." The old man stated in a respectful and thankful tone as he bowed his head a bit before looking at them.
Naruto put his hands behind his head as he gave a smile. "I told you the two of us could do it, although I gotta say that old bag was by far the strongest opponent I've ever faced, which reminds me." The young blond looked at Sasuke. "How did you use the Sword of Totsuka? I thought Itachi was the one that wielded that blade Sasuke?" The blue eyed teen asked curiously.
Sasuke looked at the loudmouthed blond and closed his eyes with a small smirk. "It was a parting gift from Itachi. I didn't realize it until we were fighting Kaguya, but I remember how he transplanted the fail safe into me when I first got the mangekyou sharingan. He did it in a subtle way, but then again he was always one step ahead of me. It was a one-time use though like how I had once possessed his sharingan. It died with him, so I couldn't keep it, but using it once was more than enough. This way no one will be able to obtain that weapon and possibly figure out a way to break Kaguya out."
Hagoromo gave a very light chuckle. "You two do act a lot like Asura and Indara, although have differences as well. Well your task is done, and I will be taking the power I bestowed upon you back as well. If the world should need so I will return it to you. The way things should be turning out a power such as mine shouldn't be in an era of peace and could bring fear into those again like it did when my mother wielded the power. Now before I continue with what I would like to discuss there are some people that would like to talk to you." The old man stated as he pointed behind the two.
Naruto and Sasuke turned around and were surprised to see their families there. Kushina and Minato had huge grins on their faces, while Mikoto had a gentle smile, and both Itachi and Fugaku had small approving smirks. Naruto had tears starting to form in his eyes as he immediately ran to both his parents and hugged them with a joyous laughter. Sasuke gave a small look of nervousness and uncertainty of what to do when he suddenly felt arms wrap around him. Sasuke looked down to see his mom hugging him. The young man responded hesitantly responded by hugging her and letting a couple of tears fall from his eyes. He looked at his father and brother, whom both gave nods of approval to him to which Sasuke returned. Hagoromo gave a small smile as he watched the two teenagers catch up with their families and started debating how he would explain things to him.
Naruto and Sasuke only talked for about ten minutes to their families before the old man called them back over. They stood in front of the Sage both curious as to what he wanted to talk to them about. The two teens glanced at each other before looking back at Hagoromo waiting for his explanation.
"Well once again I give you my thanks for doing the impossible and like I said before there's something I'd like to discuss with the two of you, but first hold out your respective hands to me." The old man stated, and Naruto and Sasuke responded to his order.
The two teens felt the power of the Six Paths leaving them and the marks on their hands disappeared as well. Naruto looked at his hand seeing the circle mark gone while Sasuke just waited for the Sage of Six Paths continue with what he wanted to discuss.
"I won't lie what I'm about to ask is going to be hard to understand and won't be easy to do if one or both of you decide to accept this…..quest you could call it." Hagoromo started explaining. "First, I want you both to know that there are many different worlds that are all different, yet all the same in some way or form. Now I'm a delegate you could say for Kami, whom is the protector for this particular universe. There are times when one or a few chosen people are asked to go to another world because they deserve a sort of second chance as well as they're skills and talents could be helped for the greater good. I've come here to offer you two this option. You don't have to accept this of course, but if you do it will be a once in a lifetime experience to be honest. The hardest part is that you two will not come back to your home. Now before either of you say something it was decided a long time ago that those that are chosen would exist in the new world as well as in their home world. This is just in case for example another Madara would appear here, then you'd still be here to stop it in a sense. Are there any questions you have so far before I continue?" The Sage of Six Paths asked the two young man.
Sasuke was a little surprised by the offer at a sort of second chance to begin anew in a sense. He had regretted some of the things he'd done to his village and former friends, although his pride wouldn't allow him to admit it out loud. He ran a hand through his hair in thought and took a glance at Naruto. The blond haired hero had donned a serious look upon his face as he thought about what had been told to him. On one hand, he thought it would be amazing to see a new place, make new things, and maybe live a somewhat more normal life than what he had in Konoha. He did have some cons, but over time the pros outweighed them greatly. Naruto knew that he'd miss everyone greatly even if he was still here, although that caused a question to come into mind.
"How would it be possible for there to be two of me? I can understand a shadow clone or something else like that, but another actual individual that's exactly like me seems kinda impossible." The Jinchuuriki curiously asked.
The old man smiled a bit. "Well to be honest what happens is that all of your abilities as a shinobi will be stripped from you. You will no longer have chakra or anything that like that. This happens, so the balance is kept first of all in the other you. Now it's not to say that you'll be defenseless and everything. It's known that you can't create energy it can only be passed on. You will have traits that come from this world for example." He gestured to Naruto. "No matter what world you went to Naruto, you'll still have that incredible life force that your family is known for. Does that about sum it up?" The Sage asked.
Naruto nodded a bit after a couple of seconds as his mind processed what was told. Sasuke wondered if that meant he'd still have the Sharingan, but had more thoughts on his mind than that. He figured if it would be revealed in time if he still had his kekkei genkai or something similar to it if he decided to take the offer. The young Uchiha thought of another question that was bugging him a bit.
"Well what would happen to our bodies? I mean I know we wouldn't have chakra, but wouldn't not having a type of substance similar to chakra kill us? Also if we are going to start a second life would we have to like be reverted to babies or something like that? I know it sounds weird, but some things could be cleared up." Sasuke explained as he stated his question
Hagoromo nodded a bit in understanding as he replied. "No, all questions have valid answers for something such as this. Well you're right you would die if there wasn't something like chakra within your body. That's why we only send people to worlds that have similar qualities when it comes to how the body functions. The substance this world has that we're planning on sending you to is called Aura. You'll have similar amounts of Aura of the chakra pools that you have, except for you Naruto seeing as you won't have any of the Bijuu within you anyways. Now about being reduced to babies no that will not happen. You'll still be the same age and everything. You'll have some knowledge of your abilities, but we've arranged for you to meet someone once your there to explain things and help train you a little bit for you to get used to your bodies. Are there any more questions?"
The Uchiha and Uzumaki both looked at each other before looking back at their ancestor. "Can you give us a couple of minutes to think about this? It's a bid decision and a lot to take in after all." Naruto asked curiously.
Hagoromo gave a small nod in reply to the question as the two heroes turned towards each other. "What do you think Sasuke?" Naruto asked his teammate.
Sasuke was debating it for a little bit and after a few seconds he released a small sigh. "I'm not sure what to think to be honest. On one side it's a good chance for me to make amends in a way and start a new life."
The blond Jinchuuriki nodded a bit in understanding and rubbed the back of his head and looked up a bit. "It would be a good way for you to start over. It would also be a great experience for me. I mean to meet new friends, see new sites, and learn new things. The list is endless to be honest, but the only thing is that I would personally miss everyone…..even if I'm still technically here. It would honestly be nice to be seen as just a person and not thought of as a demon at one time." Naruto looked back at Sasuke after a couple of minutes with a small smile and determined look in his eye. "It'll be hard, but I'm going to accept the offer. I believe it's enough for me to know that I'll still be here to help and protect them. If someone needs help, and I know I can do something about it, then I won't hesitate." Naruto stated confidently.
Sasuke gave a small smirk and looked at the Sage. "Hn, guess that makes two of us then. We both accept your offer." Sasuke turned towards both his parents and Naruto's. "I guess this is goodbye until next time then."
"Jeez, you make it seem like it will take forever for you to see your family and for Naruto to see us again Sasuke. You can be just as bad as your father it seems, ya know." Kushina stated with a roll of her eyes, while Mikoto giggled at both Fugaku and Sasuke's glare they gave her. Minato face palmed a bit albeit with a smile on his face.
The Sage of Six Paths smiled warmly and nodded a bit as Sasuke and Naruto looked back at him. "Stick your hands out like when I first bestowed my power upon you. This will probably hurt a bit, so be prepared. You won't only be going to a different world, but your body will be stripped of its chakra and replaced with aura after all."
Naruto and Sasuke nodded and held out their respective hands and closed their eyes. Hagoromo stretched out his hands as well and closed his hands as he started concentrating. The two shinobi were enveloped in a glowing white light before they looked at their families again.
"I hope I get to see you again real soon Mom and Dad." Naruto stated with a warm smile upon his face to which Sasuke nodded in agreement as they both disappeared in a flash of light.
Kushina looked at Hagoromo and put her hands on her hips. "So, did you forget to mention the little surprise that was waiting for them for taking the offer once they arrived there?" She asked in a somewhat suspicious tone.
Hagoromo raised an eyebrow. "I have no idea what you're talking about. I simply figured it would be a nice little surprised after all." He stated with an ever so slightly present smirk.
Kushina crossed her arms and tilted her head a bit. "Huh, I guess that's where the Senju and Uzumaki's joking personality comes from after all." The red head mockingly stated.
- To Naruto and Sasuke in Remnant -
Naruto and Sasuke both felt like they were moving nowhere seeing as everywhere they looked there was nothing, but darkness. They had already dealt with the pain of their body altering to the changes it would have to go through. Now they were just aimlessly floating. Naruto was about to break the silence when a light appeared in the distance and started nearing them. Once, it reached them the two young men were thrust forward sliding against what felt like the ground.
Naruto was the first one to pick himself up the ground slowly feeling sore from what just happened as he looked around. They were currently in a forest of some kind, although the flora had differences in them compared to the forest that he knew of. Sasuke stood up and brushed off some dust of his pants and took a look around as well. It was different than what he knew of, but a part of him was skeptical if they really were in a new world.
"Soooooooo I guess we're here? Everything does look different…." Naruto commented and closed his eyes and forming a hand sign to focus his chakra, but opened his eyes after a couple of seconds with slightly wide eyes. "And I can't feel my chakra or any of the Bijuu at all. Sasuke I believe we're in a new world after all." The blond teen stated in surprise
Sasuke had tried seeing if he had any chakra as well and even tried activating his sharingan, but nothing happened. He was about to comment on that, but the leaves started rustling and both responded by one pulling out a kunai and the other his chokutō and got in defensive positions when a rabbit came out of the bushes and ran past them. Naruto and Sasuke turned and watched the retreating rabbit as they relaxed a bit when something was flying through the air. In response, the two former shinobi jumped forward and turned around to see a stinger placed in the ground connected a Death Stalker.
"That's a large evil looking scorpion creature. What the hell is that? It's not even close to normal." Naruto commented as he dodged another attack by the surprisingly fast creature.
Sasuke kept silent as he side stepped an attack from the claw and followed up by rushing for the tail to cut it off. The Uchiha had his weapon in a reverse grip and swung, but his eyes widened in surprise as his sword suddenly broke and shatter from the impact. He jumped off the scorpion like creature's body and landed next to Naruto as he tossed his sword away to the side seeing as it was useless now.
"That armor is a lot tougher than it looks. We just had to fight an enemy when we don't have any chakra to fight back and I highly doubt your kunai is going to do anything to him if my sword was literally shattered upon impact." Sasuke grimly stated as they eyed the creature, whom seemed to be watching the two and see what they would do next. It seemed to have noticed they were weak prey and in turn reacted upon that.
Naruto groaned in frustration. "Why does this kinda crap always happen at the worst of times to me?" The blond teen grumbled under his breath as the Death Stalker came in close for another strike.
Well that's the prologue to the story. I hope everyone enjoyed the introduction. This is my first crossover like I said, so please be patient with me if I don't update often. I would like to make sure the chapter works out, all of you will hopefully be satisfied. If you have any questions feel free to ask and I will answer them within reason. Please also leave a review. No spammers or flames. I will ignore your review/comment. I do read critical criticism though because there is a difference between that and just being a plain douche bag.
