AN: This has been the culmination of a long time. This story has taken 5 months to write one chapter because I really want this to work. This is the real story that I am making. Let it also be known that I am taking a unique turn in this story and I will be interpreting the Akatsuki in a different way and I hope you guys will like it.
First off I want to thank everyone who has ever favorited, followed, reviewed in any of my stories. I am sorry if I have discontinued any of my other stories. I will get back to there after I finish this story because this is my passion because I love this pairing.
Second, the reason why I chose this pairing because this is my all time favorite pairing in Naruto although I love NaruHina but Naruto and Tayuya just beat them for me.
Third, I want to thank Digitize27, RyoshiMorino, and Jetslinger because if it wasn't for their stories I wouldn't have been able to pick up this pen or keyboard to jot this down and check out their stories. (Yellow and Red makes, The Blue-Eyed Fox, Seeing Red, and The Melody of the Fox)
So anyway leave a favorite, follow and a review and enjoy the story
"You're going to lose Dobe!" Sasuke in his cursed seal form shouted as his arm already had the Chidori in set and was standing near the Madara statue at the Valley of the End.
"Shut up Teme! I promised Sakura-chan that I would bring you back even if I have to break every bone in your body to do so." Naruto in his one tailed cloak with the rasengan in his right arm standing near the Hashirama statue.
The valley of the end was quiet and only the sounds of chirping birds could be heard. The two brothers then launched at each other and both jutsu's collided with each other
"CHIDORI!"
"RASENGAN!"
Sasuke's chidori then pierced Naruto's chest as he screamed in pain and was aiming for Sasuke's hitai-te. "Kit. We will die if you make that just hit him in the stomach." But. "Just do it, ningen. We don't have much time."
"SASUKE!" With that Naruto hit the the spiraling ball of chakra to Sasuke's stomach which caused the boy to crash and create a crater on the Madara's statue.
Naruto then removed his cloak and was panting heavily, "I... did...it-" He then coughed up blood and then fell backwards.
"Kit. Kit. KIT! Wake up! Don't you die on me, kit! Naruto! WAKE UP!" The dank sewer then started to disappear and was replaced by darkness except for the red cage that held the bijuu in place. "Curses! I can't escape."
"Boy it was a very long time." The Kyuubi then looked at the girl with flowing white hair and wearing a white kimono with a scroll on her left hand and a short blade on the other. The girl then started laughing, "The kid was supposed to be dead a long time ago, Kurama. But you kept on healing him so I never had any precious time with him or you for that matter."
"Shut up Shinigami. The only one who gets to call me that is the Sage and if it wasn't for this blasted seal I would have showed you death." Kurama bared his teeth and the death god just simply laughed loudly.
"Oh my Kami, Kurama! I haven't had a long time laughing like that but as you can see-" She then raised her right hand and the blade became bigger, "-I have to cut things short. I'll see you in the other world."
The blade then was going to slash Kurama as the bijuu closed his eyes and wished silently for his annoying warden to be alive.
"HEY BAKA-KITSUNE! Why am I here?!" Shinigami then stopped her sword as both hers and Kurama's jaw was on the floor looking at the impatient blonde who crossed his arms.
"Hello! Kyubbi, what am I doing here?" Kurama was the first one to recover from the shock, "Kit don't scare me like that for a second there you had me at death's door, literally."
Shinigami then dropped her sword, "No. No. No. NO. NO! NO!" She appeared in front of Naruto and started shaking him back and forth, "How are you still alive?! You should have died; Sasuke cut your heart into two after that Chidori. Is this the work of my sister? Tell me boy how are you still alive?!"
The Shinigami was angry as steam was coming from her ears and then Naruto grabbed the hands of the Shinigami to have her stop, "Would you stop that baa-chan!" Shinigami was shocked at what Naruto had said and transformed her sword into a scythe.
"Die, gaki!" She swung her scythe and it went through Naruto as he poofed. "What the-" Naruto was with Kyuubi, "What is wrong with you? Why are you attacking me, baa-chan!" She then let out a huge amount of steam and yelled, "I AM NOT THAT OLD!"
Kyuubi smirked, "Who knew Shinigami had a child's mind." Naruto wondered, "You know her?" The bijuu sighed, "Unfortunately, kit. You see the bumbling girl with the huge scythe is the Shinigami who you ningens call Death."
"Oh, so she really is old." The Shinigami appeared in front of Naruto and had her scythe near his neck, "If you call me old one more time. I will give you the most painful death imaginable."
The blonde was sweating buckets then showed his trademark grin, "Ok, I'm sorry, Shin-chan." The death god released her scythe and smiled, "I'm sorry Naruto-kun! But you and Kurama will die now!" The scythe changed again to her long sword and was about to slice them.
"WAIT!" The death god stopped her sword, "What do you want?!" Naruto then put on the infamous puppy dog eyes jutsu, "Wait, who's Kurama and please just give us a chance."
The Shinigami sighed loudly, "Kurama is the Kyuubi. You know the one you jail and-" "Oh so you're name is Kurama." "Yes it is, kit. But you are not allowed to call me by that name only-"
"Yeah, yeah. Only the Rikudo Sennin can call you that even though I just met him and-" Kurama interrupted him, "What did you say kit? You met the sage." "Yeah I did and he said something like this."
Flashback no Jutsu
"Huh. Where am I?" Naruto looked around and saw nothing but darkness.
"Hmm. Last thing I remember was slamming Teme with the Rasengan and now I'm here."
"Yes you are." Naruto then looked at where the voice originated from and he saw a tall and pale-skinned man, who had deep wrinkles. He had horn like protrusions on his forehead along with a red eye at the center of his forehead. He wore a white kimono with a pattern of six black magatama around a high collar.
Naruto wondered who was this person, "Who are you, jiji!" The old man smiled at him, "I am the one they call the God of All Shinobi, Hagoromo Otsutsuki and you are in your mind."
Naruto then answered, "So that's where I'm at and how come I have never heard of you." Hagoromo then replied, "I believe you are the type who doesn't listen to people." Damn it, he got me.
"So why are you here Jiji?" Hagoromo then told Naruto to sit down, "I am here to give you a message."
Naruto then said, "I'm listening." Hagoromo sighed, "I'll get straight to the point as you don't have long before you meet Kurama."
Naruto asked a question, "Ano, who's Kurama?" Hagoromo smiled, "Why he's the one who's been sealed within you Naruto-kun." Naruto got shocked, "That's the name of baka-Kyuubi."
Hagoromo nodded and then donned a serious face, "Anyways, Naruto-kun to get to the point at hand. There is a big war coming." Naruto was surprised again, "When will it happen, jiji?"
Hagoromo shook his head, "I don't know Naruto-kun but it is coming so I am here to tell you that I believe you are the one that can only save the shinobi war." Naruto asked, "But why me?" Hagoromo smiled, "Because you are the child of prophesy that will bring everlasting peace to this world."
"WOAH! That's awesome, jiji. But how will I bring peace." Hagoromo then said, "By breaking the cycle of hatred." Naruto wondered again, "What's that, jiji?"
Hagoromo then explained, "The cycle of hatred goes back to the creation of chakra. You see my mother ate this fruit that creates chakra and she used it to stop the wars but overtime she was corrupted by power so me and my brother had to seal her. But even as the Rikudo Sennin, I couldn't stop the impending hatred from reaching to future generations as they used chakra as weapons to cause war, suffering and death across the shinobi lands. You see when I was at deathbed I prophesized that there will come a person that will stop the cycle of hatred and lead the shinobi lands to peace."
He then smiled, "And that person is you Naruto-kun." Naruto then answered, "That doesn't answer how I can stop this cycle of hatred."
Hagoromo continued, "Naruto, you posess the heart of a pure shinobi. You just have to be yourself but I can't ask you to be the good guy in this road to peace." Naruto's face darkened as he said, "Does it mean I have to kill and become like Orochimaru."
Hagoromo retorted, "I mean no such thing. What I'm saying is that can I ask you to play as the bad guy but to do good stuff." Naruto then snapped from the darkness that he caused, "How will that work?"
Hagoromo then said, "I am sorry Naruto-kun but I can't reveal everything as you have to find that yourself." Naruto then smiled his trademark grin, "I understand Jiji. I'll do what you ask me for and I will bring peace to every shinobi, believe that!"
Hagoromo smiled as he stood up and said, "This is my last instruction I will give you Naruto. I want you to go to Kurama and convince him to join with you." Naruto then said, "How can I do that? The baka-kitsune just wants to get rid of the seal."
Hagoromo just said, "Then get rid of his hatred." Naruto understood at what the sage meant and nodded his head as Hagoromo continued, "Next I want you to convince Shinigami to let you go so that you can bring peace. And I want you to revive someone who can help you in your journey."
"Who's that?" Hagoromo then whispered to the boy and the boy just nodded.
Naruto then gave a thumb up, "I got it Jiji." Hagoromo continued to smile, "Very well, it seems you are ready. I wish you luck on your journey to the road to peace. Oh and one last thing you may need companions to be with you as this may get lonely." Naruto then shouted, "Don't wory jiji. I got a plan."
Hagoromo then slowly vanished, "Surprise me, Naruto-kun." He then disappeared as Naruto stood up and brushed himself off, "Now to look for Kurama."
Flashback no Jutsu End!
Naruto then asked, "So, Shinigami-chan! Please make me fulfill Jiji's wish!" Shinigami then sighed, "Ok."
Kurama was shocked to not only hear that this was the blue eyed boy that the Sage talked about who would unite the world and every bijuu as his tenant. Also to convince the Shinigami to let him go. Looks like the kit deserves the title of the most surprising ninja.
Naruto then hugged the Shinigami, "Thank you, Shinigami-chan!" The death god lightly blushed and pushed the blonde away, "All right go back, just go."
Naruto then remembered, "Can you fulfill one more wish of mine, Shinigami-chan!" "What is it?" Shinigami asked as her face was slightly red.
Naruto then had his trademark grin which made the Shinigami blush even deeper, "Can I have the ability to revive someone who is dead. Only one person, please!"
"FINE! Just call my name and I'll appear to revive the person who you wish to revive." She was then surprised when the blonde again hugged her making her blush to an unimaginable shade of red. She pushed him off her.
Kurama then spoke, "Wait kit." Naruto noticed, "What is it, Kurama?" The bijuu slightly was angered at the mention of his real name but decided to let it go, "I wanna tell you something." Naruto then decided to hear the fox out and then smiled afterwards.
"Shinigami-chan!". "WHAT?!" Shinigami asked as her face looked flustered. Naruto then asked, "Can you release the Yin chakra to us?" Shinigami then shouted with a red face, "NO! NO! NO! THAT'S MINE!"
Naruto then used the puppy dog eyes jutsu and the death god faltered, "Fine, after this just leave."
The Shinigami then placed her hand on Kurama and transferred the stored Yin chakra to the bijuu as the beast then jumped happily, "YES! Finally I'm whole again. Let's go now kit."
Naruto then said, "Got it. Bye, bye, Shinigami-chan I'll see you again." Then the blonde and the bijuu were gone leaving the Shinigami alone in the dark space.
"I gotta visit Kami about these feelings."
Naruto then woke up and noticed that his wound was gone leaving two scars on his chest. He also noticed that Sasuke was still there in the crater and that no one was there. This looks like the time for the first step to my plan.
He then got his hitia-te and scratched the Konoha symbol in half but instead of leaving it he just carried it. He then left the valley and just ran.
Kakashi then arrived at the scene as he saw Sasuke unconscious and still in the crater. Naruto must've done this. But then he adjusted his eyes and saw a lot of blood in a particular area and quickly summoned Pakkun.
The dog then appeared and Kakashi quickly said, "Pakkun, I need you to tell me whose blood this is?" Pakkun then sniffed it, "No doubt about it. It's your loud-mouthed student."
Kakashi then felt gloom, "Can you track him." The dog shook his head, "Afraid not it's like he disappeared and was never here." Kakashi then picked up Sasuke and carried him on his back, "We have to go to Konoha and report to Lady Tsunade right now."
Kakashi then quickly ran as he began to notice that he was crying as he remembered what he promised to his sensei. Minato-sensei, Kushina-san, I'm sorry I wasn't there for your son.
He then arrived at Konoha with everyone including the retrieval group with the Suna siblings waiting at the gate. Kakashi quickly lowered Sasuke down only to have Sakura rush to her crush, "Is he ok, Tsunade-sama?"
Tsunade then laid her hands on Sasuke to apply the medical ninjutsu, "It looks like he has a few broken ribs but overall he's just knocked out from the damage. Now where's Naruto."
Kakashi was silent to that response. Tsunade then stood up and asked again, "Kakashi, where is Naruto?" At this point Kakashi couldn't even look at the Hokage as he knew of her relationship with Naruto.
She then grabbed Kakashi, "Where is Naruto?" "He's dead."
Everyone then looked at the now conscious and laughing Sasuke, "The dobe should have learned." He then stood up, "I used the Chidori to cut Naruto's heart into two and when the dobe died. I figured why let the demon live so I just incinerated the body leaving nothing left."
He then started laughing evilly until he was interrupted by Tsunade's strongest punch which broke and fractured his jaw. It sent the young Uchiha through the wall.
Tsunade who was still angry, "ANBU!" Two anbu then appeared in front of her, "Yes Tsunade-sama."
"Bring the traitor to Ibiki and then have him thrown into a cell." The anbu then nodded as they got the Uchiha and disappeared.
Meanwhile everyone was in shock over what they heard even Sakura nor Kakashi could say anything. Tsunade then spoke first, "All of the rookie 10 who are still able to move. Go out there and find Naruto!"
"HAI!" Everyone understood as they disappeared leaving Sakura and the unconscious Neji and Chouji behind. Sakura then started crying, "This is all my fault. I'm sorry Naruto!"
Our blonde was now hiding in a cave and resting, "Kit gotta talk to you."
Naruto then slept as he then appeared in the dank prison of the Kyuubi.
"I will help you on your quest to peace-" "Really that's awesome. I knew even you could-" The Kyuubi then shouted, "-I have not changed baka. I still want to sink these teeth into you but for a period of time I have no choice but to work with you to fulfill the sage's dream. So don't think that we are partners."
Naruto then smiled, "Sure buddy." Kurama retorted, "Did you hear what I had said?" Naruto did not mind the threat, "Yeah, yeah I know but we're stuck together so maybe you could-"
Kurama then answered, "NO! I am the Kyuubi no Yoko. The most terrifying creature in all the shinobi lands. I am hatred itself and I will not play with you but simply lend you a bit of my power."
"How can you lend me a bit of your power?" Kurama answered, "Just tear a little piece of the seal."
Naruto did how he was told and tore a little bit of the seal. Suddenly the red cloak of the Kyuubi's power engulfed Naruto, "Wow! This is amazing!"
Kurama coughed a bit to gain Naruto's attention, "Now this is important, kit. So listen up. As you may know that I have received my other half that was sealed from me by the Yondaime." Naruto nodded his head, "But there is a problem" "What kind?" "You see kit when I received my Yin half I should have felt more powerful but I still feel separated so what it means is that your body cannot handle the other half. I think if you were older, it would be possible but for now we have to look for someone who can handle the other half. Otherwise-"
Naruto asked, "Otherwise, what?" "You explode and we both die."
"How long do we have then?" Kurama answered, "I say two months will be about right." The blonde then answered, "Well let's get to work then."
"Before you leave kit. I have one request to make." Naruto then asked, "What is it, Kurama?" "I must say I grow tire of this dank and depressing sewer of a prison if you could just make this landscape better for me to live in."
"Actually I wanted to know why this place like this is." Kurama just sighed, "Because of you, baka. Don't you remember when you were young and you were emo. I was the one who had to suppress those suicidal thoughts and your sadness was always what you though every damn time so it became this."
"I get it." Naruto nodded, "So how do I make this place a bit happier?" Kurama said, "Try envisioning a place that is good and you're mind will take the rest."
Naruto then imagined a place that had a forest like the one he went inside the chuunin exams with a view of the Hokage's monument and had a sun. The landscape then began to change as there was now grass underneath Kurama's feet. The cage was then gone and the surrounding environment became a forest.
By the time he finished, everything was surrounded by lush green and he saw the Kyuubi dance around happily, "Thanks kit. Now WAKE UP!"
Naruto then woke up and realized it was mid noon, "Looks like I gotta go." He then left the cave.
"Fuckin' motherfucker with the shit on the fuckin' side! Someone help me!" Tayuya screamed as she was now conscious from what had happened.
She then realized that she was stuck under a very huge tree and couldn't get out plus her legs were broken, Fuck that pineapple headed fuck and that porcupine whore. I can't even feel my fucking legs! How am I supposed to get out?!
"Ku, ku, ku. In a bit of a predicament, Tayuya-chan." Tayuya was glad that she heard Orochimaru's voice, "Thank fucking goodness. Orochimaru, please save me!"
"Ku, ku, ku. I am sorry Tayuya-chan but why should I be interested in damaged goods." Tayuya's eyes widened, No! NO! NO! The snake sannin then diabolically laughed, "You'll serve me better once you are dead and I get to have my way with you. Goodbye, Tayuya-chan."
The red headed girl started crying as she was abandoned again by someone who she looked up to. She then shook her head of such thoughts, "FUCK YOU! I don't fucking need your help! I can do this by my fucking self!"
She then tried to wiggle out from her position but then immeasurable pain hit her, "AHHHH! FUUUCCK!"
She then stopped moving as she realized she wasn't going to get out and her vision was getting darker. Am I going to die here? Please, anyone, help. Sleep then hit the red haired loudmouth as she really tried to fight and stay alive. She then closed her eyes as she let her body rest.
"You see Kurama I have come up with an ingenious plan to bring peace to the world." Kurama just laughed, "You with a plan. Ha! You are going to solve something that even the Rikudo Sennin wasn't able to do."
The blonde just smiled, "Believe it."
Naruto then stopped walking as he noticed part of the forest was just destroyed, "Take a looka at this, Kurama. Someone must have used a powerful jutsu to do this." The bijuu nodded in agreement, "I dare say it was wind chakra as the trees are cleanly cut and-"
Kurama stopped as he started sniffing something that was very familiar to him, "Kit, do you smell that?" Naruto then started sniffing, "Kurama, isn't that-"
"Blood." Naruto then started running through the debris, Someone must have been caught in this. "And it's fresh too, kit."
Naruto ran even faster to save or at least give peace to whoever got stuck here.
"How long have I been here?" Tayuya woke up and she looked at her legs. "I still can't fucking move this piece of shit tree." I'm going to die here, aren't I!
She then moved her head up as she began to hear movement, Who's that? What do I care I need this fucking tree of me?
"HELP! SOMEBODY HELP!" She distressed as the pain began to act again and she was once again on the verge of unconsciousness.
The sound of rustling leaves then stopped as she felt someone already by her side, "Thank god! Please get this thing of me!"
A guy's voice then talked to her, "Sure, no prob-" Tayuya was annoyed that this guy did not help her right there but she opened her eyes, "Oh, shit!"
AN: That is all for this chapter once again leave a favorite, a follow or a review and stay awesome guys cuz I know you will and I might be open to suggestions that you guys might have so you can type whatever you want or feel like doing.
On the next chapter
"I am not leaving you here! Now get up and let's go. I'll find you some help."
"This is the worst thing I could have asked for." "At least it's better than dying"
"Your dream is a valiant one and your strategy sounds impressive but I must say that the journey is arduous as you are still a mortal. Say boy, have you heard of the Akatsuki?"
"TAYUYA!"
