Sorry it has taken so long to get this out. I have typed this many times before finding how i want it to start. I will be posting a Poll soon to find out the pairing.
Naruto stared out over the lake of water he sat near, staring at the water, yet at nothing at the same time.
It had been 10 years since the Fourth Shinobi War, and the villages were in peace. The villages were no longer fighting, they had come together and made trade agreements and many other things to keep war away, at least for a while.
But for him, Naruto Uzumaki, the Nidaime Jubi, things were anything but peaceful. Once the celebrations were over, he was brought before the Kages and they demanded him to split the Jubi, just like his ancestor before him did, to give the Biju back to their villages. Naruto told them no and that it was final.
He started to notice that he had Anbu from his own village watching his every move. He noticed how he started to get stared at, and some even stared at him in fear, afraid of him. He put up with it, even when Tsunade started to try to convince him to let them split the Biju to keep the peace. He watched as those he once called friends turned on him, calling him a traitor to the village for not splitting the Biju once more. He watched as Tsunade made Sasuke her replacement when she retired, saying since he wasn't willing to sacrifice the Biju for the village, how could he be the Hokage?
Naruto had just shook his head at hearing that, thinking, "They truly think Sasuke will sacrifice anything for them? Even when he turned traitor, killed many people, they welcomed him back with open arms…"
He ran a hand through his hair, the sun high in the sky. He closed his eyes, the memory of his wife of a month, Hinata Hyuga, be killed in front of him by Sasuke after he denied Sasuke when he demanded the power of the Kyubi because, "A clanless dobe like you does not deserve that power, only I, an Uchiha Elite, deserve that power!"
He felt tears fall from his eyes as he clenched them shut tightly, seeing the body of his wife, lying in front of him, a small smile on her face as she stared at him with the life leaving her eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, drawing blood. He threw his head back, letting the sun dry the tears on his face as he felt the chakra signatures of a group of familiar people coming towards him. He slowly stood, knowing this would be the final thing he does.
He had talked with his wife before her death, talking of his ability to do what the Sage of Six Paths had done before. How he had given chakra, and how he was able to take it back, and that he had that ability now. He spoke of how the world didn't seem to be getting any better, there were many skirmishes between the villages now, and he was tired of it. He had fought the last war against a Goddess, to fight for peace. He thought, when they all came together, they had a chance of a better future, yet it seemed that wasn't the case.
His wife agreed with him. The time of Chakra was coming to a close, and he was going to be the one to end it. He stood in the middle of the clearing, the small lake behind him, his eyes closed, feeling the wind flowing around him, answering his call as it slowly swirled around him.
He straightened, and slowly opened his eyes, staring at the faces of his old friends. He looked on at them, Lee, Gai, Tenten, Kakashi, Sasuke, Sakura, Tsunade, Kurenai, Shikamaru, Ino, Choji, Kiba and Akamaru.
He held his hand out and out of nothing, a long black staff that seemed to be humming with power appeared in his hands. As his hand enclosed around it, his chakra exploded out of him, forcing those before him to use chakra to stay in place, even as the wind tore at their forms, trying to launch them back. Naruto's body began to change. His skin began to pale as his clothes changed into white robes with 9 magatama on the from in 3 rows of 3, just like on his back. His hair grew longer and his bangs looked to be in the shape of horns as he stood in the middle of the maelstrom of power. He now stood at 6'3".
He looked at them, his eyes now the Rinnegan. He watched them as they fought to stay still, Gai holding onto Lee so that he wouldn't be tossed away from the wind. Naruto raised his hand and suddenly, the world stilled. Nothing moved, the wind seemed to had just died.
He looked at them, watching as they stared at him in fear, and wonder, wondering if he is the one who stopped the wind. "Why have you come here, Konoha?"
He felt three other signatures approaching him, and knew they were stronger than those in front of him. He watched as Sasuke stepped forward, losing the fear in his eyes and smirking, "We are here to make you give us the Biju, Dobe."
Naruto narrowed his eyes before he stepped forward, and disappeared. They gasped as they saw Naruto standing beside Sasuke, his hand on his shoulder as he spoke, "You are undeserving of the gift of Chakra, Uchiha… The Cycle of Hatred shall end today… starting with you."
Suddenly, Sasuke doubled over his pain and Naruto appeared back in his spot, seemingly not showing he had moved at all. He felt the signature of the three from before watching from the trees and decided to ignore them for now. He watched as the group surrounded him, Gai and Lee both droppng their weights and started to unlock the gates. He watched Shikamaru narrow his eyes and start speaking to them. Naruto shook his head, spinning the staff in his hands before disappearing, appearing in front of Shikamaru, the staff swinging and connecting with his face, tossing his away like a rag doll. He lifted both arms and blocked the now 6 gate released Gai and Lee's legs without moving an inch. He glanced at them from the corner of his eyes before they were launched away at high speeds due to a wordless Shinra Tensei.
He grabbed the lightning covered hand of Kakashi before snapping the wrist and kicked him away. He brought his staff up with both hands as both Gai and Lee came again and tried to land a kick from above but blocked it. He grabbed Lee's leg and spoke softly, yet he heard him easily, "It was because of me, you were able to walk once again and train in Taijutsu…" He yanked Lee to him, spinning him around and held him by his shoulders and everyone could only watch as he placed jammed his knee into his back, and they all cringed at the scream of pain and the crack of bones.
He tossed Lee away and slapped Gai away with ease and watched as Choji launched his large fist at him. He lifted his hand and caught his fist and stood there, even as Ino tried to enter his mind yet she was launched back into her own mind, screaming in pain from the violent force.
Naruto watched as Sasuke stood there with Tsunade as the others tried to battle him, his sharingan spinning slowly. Naruto smirked and his eyes changed into a EMS, (AN: Not sure how to describe it, so go to profile for the url.)
Sasuke growled, "How do you have those eyes, Dobe?!"
Naruto slammed his staff into Kurenai's stomach before chopping her neck, knocking her out cold. He did not hate Kurenai, seeing as she was one who took care of him as a child and supported him and Hinata when they went out as a couple. He flicked his wrist, her body flashing away in a silver flash back to the village, where her child was. He looked back at Sasuke and spoke, "The Old man came to me in a dream a while ago. He told me he is disappointed in what the villages are becoming again and had given me his full spirit. He gifted me the EMS, Rinnegan, and he told me in a few years with enough training, the Rinne-Sharingan."
Naruto flicked his wrist and Kakashi growled out in pain as the kunai pierced his shoulder. Naruto slammed the staff into Gai's stomach, making his cough up blood from the strength of the hit. Naruto saw Shikamaru finally get up and sent his shadow at him, trying to catch him. Naruto seemed to dissolve into the wind and the next thing Shikamaru knew, he was smashed through multiple trees, before falling unconscious.
Naruto looked at Tsunade who was growing angrier by the second. She launched herself at him and he easily caught her full strength and stared at her emotionlessly. He spun, launching a kick into her stomach, causing her to launch back a few yards and cough up blood. He saw the fireball that Sasuke launched at him and put up one hand seal and took a deep breath before a white ball of flame, 5 times larger than Sasukes, launched away, engulfing Sasuke's and nearly hitting him.
He saw Gai getting up again as Sakura healed him and watched as he and Kakashi rushed at him together and began a Taijutsu battle that Naruto was dominating. They could not get past his guard, and every time he hit, it nearly broke their bones with the power behind each hit. They each sported multiple bruises and broken bones while he had none, not even being touched, before they were knocked unconscious by a hit to the jaw that shattered both jaws. He saw Sakura staring at him wide-eyed as he approached her. He caught Tsunade's fist and tossed her away, not even glancing at her, and made a sealless clone that blocked all of the Kunai that Tenten had launched at him. He saw Kiba using Getsuga with Akamaru and easily dodged them and stopped in front of Sakura who had pissed and crapped her pants.
He shook his head before knocking her unconscious, not even wanting to waste any time with her. He turned to the only ones left standing. Tsunade, Sasuke, Tenten, Choji, and Kiba and Akamaru stood there, staring at him, in shock. He looked at them and spoke to Tenten, Choji, and Kiba.
"Leave, Tenten, Choji, Kiba. I have nothing against you three." They glanced at each other before quickly leaving, and gathering the others, ignoring when Tsunade and Sasuke yelled for them to quit being cowards. Naruto turned to the last two and asked Tsunade, "Why, Tsunade? I thought of you as a mother. But it seems that everything has changed. Why?"
Tsunade gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, "You took Kushi-chan from me! If it wasn't for you, she would be here now!"
Naruto shook his head, running a hand through his hair, releasing a soft sigh. "You are just like the others. To blinded by hate to see who the real enemy was…" He closed his eyes before disappearing and chopping her on the back of her neck, knocking her out cold. He turned to Sasuke who glared at him.
Naruto shook his head as he easily blocked the strikes Sasuke was launching at him and spoke, "You were someone i thought of as a brother. Someone i could relate to. Yet you never cared. All you cared for was power and wanting everyone to give you anything you wanted. When i had power that you wanted, and i denied it to you, you took it out on my wife… My wife who was 3 months pregnant… you killed her… right in front of me, making me watch as the life bled out of her…" He caught Sasuke's fist and crushed the bones in his hands before breaking both of his arms. Sasuke glared at him from his knees, gritting his teeth in pain.
He stared down at him emotionlessly, his EMS spinning slowly in his eyes. The staff in his hands disappeared as he pulled a kunai from a pouch at his waist and without wasting a moment, plunged it into his chest, and into his heart.
He closed his eyes, finally not seeing the dead body of his wife staring back at him, but of his wife smiling at him before disappearing. He let a small smile grace his lips as a single tear fell from his eye. He looked down at Tsunade and flicked his wrist, sending her away. He ignored the three presences and let his chakra out at full output. As he did, the ground beneath the entire elemental nations shook, the weather changed to where the wind blew hard, the clouds darkened, lightning shown through the clouds.
He closed his eyes as the Sages Shokujo appeared in his hands and he held it with both of his hands. He felt his chakra respond to his wishes as he slowly began to rise into the sky, his chakra being sent out, touching every living being that had chakra and began to draw it from them. Many felt their chakra leaving and tried to find out what was going on to stop it, but it kept going. All over the world, chakra began to flow across the sky, even as it began to pour. The chakra pooled inside of Naruto, filling his reserves to Godly heights, even as his own returned. His eyes opened as they shone white, lighting up the sky around him as his power surged, cracking the earth and blowing the trees around him in a 30 mile radius away or shredding them beneath the strength of his chakra.
He felt the three presences disappear a farther distance, feeling they were shocked at the power he gave off.
It took one hour for the last bit of chakra to gather inside him, leaving everyone with only enough to live. He slowly floated to the ground, the weather started to return to normal.
He watched as three people appeared before him.
One was a 16 year old female with auburn hair and silver eyes. She stood at 5'9" with silver armor on, a bow and quiver on her back, and two daggers on strapped to her waist.
One was a 12 year old girl with brown hair and eyes that were made of fire, smiling at him. She stood at a short 4'9" with a dark brown robe on and had a peaceful aura surrounding her.
The last was a 18 year old with long black hair and piercing grey eyes that seemed to try to study him. She wore armor that he had ever seen and had a spear and shield attached to her back.
"Who are you three?" Naruto asked, his head tilted to the side slightly, his eyes studying them. He could feel they were not here to try to harm him, yet the power they each radiated was over even what the First hokage and even Madara had generated, close to the strength of Kaguya.
The silver eyed girl spoke first, "I am Artemis, the Goddess of The Hunt, Wilderness, Chastity, Maidens, and the Moon."
The brown haired girl spoke up softly, "I am Hestia, Goddess of the Hearth, Home, and Family."
The black haired girl who seemed to be studying him spoke next, "I am Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom, Strategy, Arts, Crafts, Battle, and Reason."
Artemis spoke again, "We are here to take you to your mother who has been waiting to meet you."
