Naruto's Mindscape
"Naruto, get up, quick, get up kid."
"Ugh, is…is that you Kurama, you look… so weak, partner."
"Fighting that Uchiha for a few days would take a toll on anybody. Now get up Naruto, there is something not right here."
The teenager known as Uzumaki Naruto, slowly got up, and stretched his body, observing his surroundings. He was back in the same dark sewer. He closed his eyes for a moment, and saw his surroundings change to a forest with the sun shining upon him, with a few lakes here and there, and the birds chirping. He noticed Kurama, slowly stretching, approving of his new surroundings as well. Naruto then noticed his left arm, which was now a stump, courtesy of his final battle with Uchiha Sasuke.
"Well, I guess it could be worse, right partner?"
"I knew that Uchiha was good for nothing. Listen to his wonderful plan: Kill the tailed beasts, kill the rest of the Kage, and take all the world's hate upon himself, yeah, brilliant plan. No wonder Black Zetsu chose them as his puppets; they are just idiots of the highest order."
"We need to go back, Kurama. The world is not safe right now, with Sasuke at the helm. No one else is strong enough to face him right now."
"Heh, if you lost your left arm, so did he. Kid, you have nothing to worry about. Your woman, Hinata is still alive. When she hears what's happened to you, his ass is finished. Your friends are there; they will avenge you. Besides, I am worried about something else. How many more like Kaguya are out there waiting? We barely beat her, and she was preparing those White Zetsu for something, I just do not know what her plan was. We will find a way back home. Right now, let's figure out all of this."
Kurama was right, Naruto reasoned. If there was one regret he held in his heart, it was about Hinata. She almost lost her life fighting Nagato, and he could not respond to her confession. He never had anyone say, "I love you" to him, except her, and his parents. He hoped, that after the war, he would talk to her about all of this, but that option went down the drain. Naruto noticed he still had the Sun mark on his right hand. He placed it on his stump, and regenerated his left hand, good as new. He was amazed at the power he gained from Hagoromo Otsutsuki. The Truth Seeker Orbs, the ability to use the Five basic elements, the power he gained from the rest of the tailed beasts, and the mighty Rikudo Mode, he was on fire. He hoped to find a way back home, and set everything right.
"Naruto, do you sense that? I cannot believe what I am feeling, there is someone out there more powerful than the old man."
Naruto looked around, and saw a black-haired woman walking up to them, with the Shinigami of all things trailing right behind her. She was wearing a white blouse, black pants, and wearing some sort of necklace. Underneath her eye, she had a strange symbol. Naruto admitted to himself that she was quite attractive. However, he noticed the power she was extruding, and he was sincerely worried now. A black aura was surrounding her, and the ground cracked wherever she was walking, stones were being lifted into air, and evaporating due to the spiritual pressure. She stood a few feet away from them, looking at them with a gentle smile.
"Kurama, your right, she is stronger than the old man, and more powerful than Kaguya. I thought Kaguya was powerful; I cannot even measure this woman's aura, where the hell did she come from?"
"We went life and death with Sasuke. I got no more juice in the tank left. I need to rest kid; my chakra is too low right now."
"No sweat, partner. If she wants a fight, I will give her one."
The woman approaching them, simply took a seat on the grass, and the day became night. She stared at the grass, and a small fire came to life, which she stared at intently.
"Come, sit here Naruto. If I wanted to kill, I could have done that anytime I ever wanted."
Naruto cautiously took a seat next to her. He had to admit she looked like a model. The Shinigami was hovering behind her, simply observing Naruto with his snake-like tongue and his jagged teeth.
"How…how do you know my name?"
"I know everything about you Naruto."
"Are you a goddess, or something? You have the Shinigami following you around like a servant."
"No Naruto, I am not a goddess. The Shinigami is the god of death, however, I am Death itself."
Naruto felt a chill reverberate throughout his entire body. The personification of Death was sitting in front of him, not giving a shit about anything. He changed his mind about messing with her. He would die trying to fight this woman; she was galaxies out of his league.
"You said…you know everything about me? What is it you really know about me?"
All of a sudden, Naruto saw images of his life. He saw the loneliness he endured for twelve years of his life, the deaths of his mother and father, Jiraiya and the Third Hokage.
"Stop, please, just stop."
The images did not stop. Naruto saw images of Sakura and Hinata, Neji's death, Gaara almost dying, it was becoming too painful to witness this again.
"STOP, PLEASE, just stop, please."
Naruto sat down on the ground with his head in his hands, sobbing. He had no time to mourn Neji's death, as well as the death of countless others during the war, now he had to relive his sorrow and pain all over.
"Naruto, I have seen your highs and your lows, all of them. You are one of the strongest mortals, I have ever met. You forgave Uchiha Obito, the man who caused the deaths of your family. You forgave Nagato, when he killed Jiraiya. You were prepared to die with Sasuke. There are not that many people like you Naruto. The village abandoned you, when they should have done more for you. Anyone would have gone crazy, instead, you chose to forgive, and to endure. Even this cycle of hatred, you were going to do everything you could to make a better world for all. For that you have my thanks.
Death gave Naruto a fierce hug; Naruto could not help, but hug her back. Even though she was the embodiment of Death, Naruto could feel so much warmth emanating from her.
"Listen, not that I mind getting a hug from a beautiful lady, but I need to go back. The Shinobi World is in danger right now."
"The Shinobi World is just fine Naruto. The Infinite Tsukuyomi has ended, and Sasuke is fine now. He is no threat to anyone."
"You sure?"
"Positive, darling. As powerful as he is, he was not strong enough to take on everybody. He and Orochimaru were taken into custody, and were allowed to keep their lives, as insurance. The Rinnegan is a powerful tool, and Sasuke and Orochimaru are there as insurance, in case something beyond human comprehension comes after the Shinobi World. Believe me, they learned what he was planning to do with the world, he is only alive, in case something like Kaguya comes to their world again. They are mourning you right now, and a statue has been made in your honor. Hinata cried a lot that day, she almost wiped Sasuke off the continent permanently. I can see why she loves you. The world, even the Shinobi World, must end one day, honey."
"Well, I am glad Sasuke is okay, even though he is still an ass. I regret I could not speak to Hinata about her confession. So…what happens now?"
"I can send you to your mother and father, if you want. Or, you can go on another journey, and live life differently with Kurama, and the rest of the tailed beasts if you want. You still possess some of their chakra, it will reform with time. The choice is yours."
Naruto knew what he wanted to do. He missed his love ones, however, the chance to live life again would be something special. He could go to school, he could make friends, he could fall in love, things would be different.
"Lady Death, have you… have you ever been in love?"
Death turned her face away, after hearing his words. He wrapped his arms around her, and rested his chin on her shoulder.
"I understand how you fell. I really do not know, what love is. Only very few have ever loved me, and cherished me. I can tell that you fell in love, a long time ago. I cannot save you from your pain, but I promise I will always be your friend, if you want.
Death turned around, and kissed him as hard as she could. "I will accept that, for now, Naruto."
A portal opened up, and Death stared at him intently for a few moments.
"This is your second chance, Naruto. Live life, the way you want. I will meet you again, one day. Find love, and find happiness. The future is yours."
Naruto and Kurama jumped into the portal, never looking back, not noticing Death smiling at them very happily.
Outskirts of Smallville
Naruto, reverted to the age of twelve, appeared in a forest, outside of a city that was about to get a whole lot interesting now. Running around a bit, he saw a lar green sign, he could not make heads or tails of. Realizing he was probably near a city, he transformed into his 17-year-old form, and looked for a library. Breaking in was easy; he used his shadow clones to find books on the language spoken in this new world, and found out it was English. He saw computers in the library, and began surfing the web, learning about all the wars, technology, advancements in food, medicine and transportation.
He broke into the DMV next, and forged a fake driver's license for himself. He also noticed a bag with gold and money, as well as some scrolls in the bag, he figured Death gave them to him. He would need all of this. Tomorrow he would hit up the bank, and make an account for himself. There were probably some more documents he needed, but he would deal with that when the time came. Right now, he needed some food, and a place to crash. He found a simple restaurant, and after devouring some grub, found a cheap motel, and crashed on the bed, remembering better days. Little did he know, that he would end up going to school in this new world, and would meet Clara Josephine Kent, forging a friendship, and a bond of love between each other. Little did he know, that Clara Josephine Kent, would one day become the Superwoman, and he would end up having to wear the familiar Hokage uniform, fighting alongside her. They both will have to find their purpose in life, and what that purpose is.
