A/N: Okay before we start I'd just like to say I did NOT get this off VFSNAKES: The Hollow Shark Fox because in honesty I haven't actually read that one just yet... but if it is similar then of course

Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach or Naruto nor do I mean to copy anyone's work if this was similar. If it is... I'm sorry.

In honesty I was actually looking for fanfictions that had Naruko as Tier Harribel after death but I kept on getting ones that had a NarutoxHarribel in it. Still good stories those ones by the way but not the same.

Q&A!

Kilare T'suna: Will she go back as Naruto or as her? And what will be the pairing?

Me: Well first off she is going back as Tier Harribel. Why? well you don't want her to just jump out of her grave as a rotted corpse (Classic Horror move trope though) but I'll be honest the reason why she is returning as Tier is simple. No one will recognize her, if she returned as her original self she'd immediately be known as a target for the Akatsuki and other bad guys to either Extract/Kill.

While as Tier she is an unknown, people could poke and prod for information but it will be very limited considering she will hardly even share her identity with EVERYONE considering she changed while traveling in Hueco Mundo.

Second question is undetermined though. I'm willing to consider any requests but if none are given I will most likely go with a yuri route.

Also just so you know Tier will every now and then show her old persona, because no matter how hard you try you cannot always hide who you truly are. She will not be any different.

BUT! That's enough praddle.. Begin chapter!

Chapter 1: A Second Chance

[Limbo]

Tier awoke in what seemed like and endless space of white light. She was surprised to see she was...well... alive.. considering that the last moments of her life as a Arrancar obviously meant she was supposed to be dead. That's when she noticed someone was with her.

A woman who's hair was as white as snow and had azure blue eyes, she wore a white kimono that had black magatama beads decorating the end sleeves and the collar.

"So You've awoken Tier-Chan or would it be Naru-Chan?" The woman asked with a giggle, which almost made her feel innocent again...almost...

"I stopped using Naruko Uzumaki as my name a while ago..." She replied coolly, though her tone was more cautious than anything.

"Ara of course Tier-Chan~" She said as she waved her hand" Oh my I forgot to introduce myself...silly me.." She thought aloud with a giggle. "My name is Kami.~"

Tier shocked to hear this immediately bent on her knee and bowed, though she grimaced at feeling a tad bit of phantom pain in her body.

"Now now Tier-Chan there's no need for that... I've watched you since the beginning of your life..." She paused as her smile turned a bit sadistic. "Though once those villagers pass on there will be no Ame (Heaven) for them.."

Tier couldn't help but shiver at that though she wisely kept her mouth shut as she left from her bowing position. Who wouldn't Kami just promised that the villagers wouldn't find paradise...

It seemed as if Kami had noticed it however, as in a moments notice she immediately began to speak with a more cheerful persona. "But that leads us to another thing... Tier-Chan you remember the Elemental Nations ne?"

"Y-Yes Kami-Sama..?" Tier answered nervously as sweat trickled down his back.

"Good!~ That makes this a lot easier~"She said in a joyful tone, before she adopted a serious persona, making the blonde sweat-drop at her immediate change in emotion."You.. were not meant to die... Tier..In fact you were meant to have survived the Chidori the Uchiha-brat used on you..."

"Then how.." Harribel questioned with a frown.

"We do not know.. not yet anyways but you had..." Kami answered sadly before brightening up. "But! We had watched over your life as a Hollow as well. We apologize young one.." She bowed

This shocked Harribel a GOD was apologizing to her?! Was the world breaking?! Oh wait.. she's been on more than one world she can't say that.

"T-There's no need to apologize Kami-Sama it wasn't your fault..!" She spoke with uncharacteristic panic. "Please.. stand up.. um.. It truly isn't your fault Kami-Sama what happened was never in your control so there is no need to apologize for it..!"

She hear a giggle from Kami as she stood back up with a sigh. "Of course.. always so forgiving Tier-Chan.. you truly are one of the most purest souls we ha-well had now.."

"But I am afraid the Elemental Nations require your aid." She sighed again revealing why Tier didn't just pass on like any other.

Regaining her composure Tier asked with curiosity. "How I've been gone for nearly hundreds of years surely things have changed by then..?"

"Ara, did you know time flows differently between dimensions? While true hundreds of years have passed it is only within this dimension. Back in the Elemental nations it's only been three years..~" Kami giggled.

Stunned Tier decided to not think about it for now. "I see...What type of danger are they in..?"

"The Akatsuki are attempting to seal away all the Bijuu in an attempt to unleash the Juubi or Shinju, a corrupted Primordial that was sealed away, to cast a world wide genjutsu and extract all Chakra in Humanity." Kami informed Tier, whom was shocked to say the least.

A primordial?! Wait extract Chakra? but Chakra is the life force of everything in the Elemental Nations! Which meant-

"I see you reached a conclusion to what will happen if they succeed, once they extracted chakra from the people.." Kami began but went silent along the way.

"They would become soulless husks..." Harribel finished with no emotion in her tone as her hair shadowed her eyes, yet if one looked closely they'd find a gold and orange like aura practically burning from her. This plan... it sounded so much like Aizen's own...

"We gods cannot interfere with what happens to the worlds anymore, so I ask of you please save them.." Kami asked Tier, her voice cracked a tad. Tier herself had already decided to help before she asked but to see Kami herself ask her for this made her determination rise.

Kami felt a hand on her shoulder, and looked to find the source from Tier herself.

"You don't need to beg, I will help stop it however I can.." She said with almost no emotion but Kami could tell she said it to comfort her.

The goddess smiled at her and thanked her, though unseen due to her hollow mask she smiled back, while many didn't know since she nearly always had her mask on, even though she was more reserved and quiet now she still had remnants of what she was as a child. An example was of how much she cared for her Fraccion as family, so when she lost them, she almost fell into a unrelenting rage that would've used all of her powers, not just her Ressurecion and not just her Zanpakuto.

"Thank you, I don't know how to repay you.." The Goddess said.

"There is no need.." Tier responded, as far as she thought she did nothing worthy of debt.

"Before you are returned to the elemental nations, I have something to inform you of." Kami spoke. "When you died you had fused with the kyuub itself meaning you are no longer the Jinchuuriki but the Bijuu itself, so do be careful ne?"

"But of course the Tercera Espada is not so easily defeated." She stated with pride. To this Kami could only giggle before opening a portal.

"This portal leads to Sunagakure, where your journey will begin. I'm sure you know why..~" Kami hinted.

"The Ichibi... Gaara" Tier whispered, she wondered how Gaara was... After all last he saw of Gaara was back on the retrieve the 'Teme' mission. He looked to have calmed down, to which she was glad. She hoped that he had finally overcome Shukaku's madness after all these years.

"This way Tier-Chan...~" She said with joy as Tier approached it. "Remember this I and a few other gods will visit you throughout your travels so don't fret over it ne?"

The Tercera smiled as she nodded once. "Of course Kami-Chan." Before heading into the portal as it closed moments after her departure.

Unknown to the Espada, Kami sighed dreamily as she closed it behind her. "Oh sometimes I wish others were just like you Tier-Chan. A girl could dream.."

"Yes they could~" Responded a voice as a portal opened, the one walking through was a woman who had black hair and blood red eyes, she wore a outfit similar to Kami but a tad more loosely. This was Amaterasu, Goddess of Sun & Universe. She smiled hearing that the child of prophecy returned to the Elemental Nations, even if it was without her cheerful and innocent personality it brought joy to hear it nonetheless. When Tier was still Naruko Amaterasu often watched the child as she ran around the village claiming she'd be hokage, it was a shame those damned villagers always used their hatred on such a innocent child. She would personally see to it that all the villagers save for a few, whom did pity the girl, ended up in hell... Aizen was already paying for it, why not them too..?

"Ammy-Chan what brings you here~" Kami squealed as she latched on to Amaterasu tightly.

"Oh just hoped to see the Tier-Chan off~" She said innocently, before adopting a serious persona. "How do you think she'll react to Konoha..?"

Kami sighed releasing the Sun Goddess from her grasp. "Tier-Chan may stay away from Konoha for a while.. No doubt with how greedy the council is, if word got out she was alive and had new power there would only be two options: 1) They attempt to eliminate her or 2) Use her as a breeding stock for the CRA act in hopes of getting her 'bloodline' added to Konoha's own."

"Let's hope not sister or many of the gods will wreak hell on Konoha.." Amaterasu grimaced, many gods from her pantheon and others (Mostly Greek) took an interest in the child to the point that she was approached by Artemis in an attempt to get her to join her hunters, the reason? Well with how Naruko at a young age would usually put men in their place either via ass-kicking or pranking, Artemis was more than ready to have her join the hunters (So she could prank Apollo back too). Needless to say she was told to wait till the prophecy was done before requesting this of her. Athena had deemed Naruko/Tier worthy to be her champion when she noticed how the Arrancar had always showed her intellect more than her emotions and how much of a strategist she was in battle, something shown in the multiple moments Arrancar challenged her for her position as Tercera Espada.

"Yes sister, lets hope not.." Kami shivered. She turned to Amaterasu who was already opening a portal out. "Where are you going Ammy-Chan?"

"Why I'm joining Tier-Chan on her adventure of course..~" Amaterasu spoke cheerfully before entering the portal. All the while Kami shook her head. "There she goes again.."

[Kaze no Kuni, Sunagakure]

Sunagakure no Sato, The Village hidden in the sand. These were the Shinobi of Kaze no Kuni or Wind country. Until a few years ago Sunagakure had been on a decline in their finances as the Wind Daimyo had started to cease giving Suna missions for funding.

Desperate to save their people Suna agreed to aid Otogakure or Hidden Sound, into invading Konohagakure no Sato, the Hidden Leaf. However to the shock of Suna's shinobi their leader Sabaku no Rasa was killed by Orochimaru, Konoha's traitorous Sannin. Sunagakure quickly pleaded to Konoha saying that Orochimaru had tricked them into agreeing with it a nd had used the fact they had began to grow poor as a way to persuade them. Needless to say Konoha had forgave them albeit reluctantly.

Over the three years, the Kazekage's son Sabaku no Gaara had worked his way into the leadership of his village in gratitude. His reasons? A certain orange wearing blonde had taught him that he wasn't alone and that he should fight for those he held dear.

In these three years Suna began to stabilize in it's finances and had their new Kazekage to thank for it, however Kage or not Gaara knew the Akatsuki were after him...it was only a matter of time...

That time was now...

"Sabaku Sousou!" Gaara yelled asthe large ball of sand he had collected began to compress on itself. Gaara coughed as he felt himself grow tired from defending the village from the attacker.

Said attacker happened to be a man with blonde hair in a ponytail, wearing a black coat with red clouds. The Akatsuki had finally came for him, and he'd be damned to just roll over and die. Gaara panted heavily as he glared at said Akatsuki Member rode upon what seemed like a clay made bird dodging and weaving past the sand spears that threatened to impale him. Before a large one struck his bird down.

"Heh, not bad un." The man said as he got up.

"Not bad yourself, Deidara the madbomber of Iwagakure.."Gaara panted out. The now named Deidara grinned at this.

"So you've heard of me... a shame it's too late..." He said with a grin. "Katsu!"

Gaara's eyes widened when he felt the gourd thatt held his sand explode forcing him on the floor and begin to gradually lose consciousness. "How..?"

"During our first encounter some of my art crawled into your gourd while it took a lot longer to prime I see it did it's job Un." Deidara smirked as the Kazekage lost consciousness.

"Hah, eat that Itachi!" He spoke with pride aloud as he lifted the Ichibi Jinchuuriki onto another clay bid." Let's get back before Leader-Sama get's pissed.."

Little did he know he wouldn't be making it out of wind country at all..

[Kaze no Kuni, Near Suna]

Near Suna a portal had opened, who walked out was Tier Harribel in her Espada uniform. She took a breath before looking around noticing Sunagakure not far and plenty of sand... well... everywhere.

That's when a shadow passed her, looking up she spots a large clay bird with a man with blonde hair and wore a black coat with red clouds. In his right arm was a man with red hair, he wore a red coat and a pair of full length trousers, over the coat he wore two buckled belts which seemed to carry a broken gourd. 'Gaara..' She recognized but had little time to think.

One thought rung in her mind as she Sonido'd infront of him...'Akatsuki..'

Deidara was enjoying his victory when he noticed someone in his way, a woman with olive or mocha like skin, simillar to those of Kumogakure. Her aqua eyes glared at him little to no emotion..

What caught him off was that she wore some sort of white jacket that stopped just at the underside of her breasts leaving very little to the imagination, it had long sleeves and seemed to have glove extensions that reminded him of a cat. Air filters were on either side of her high collar. She seemed to wear a white hakama that exposed the sides of her hips and she wore black socks and standard sandals. The area between her waist and the under side of her breasts were uncovered. One could say she was a walking wet dream if it weren't for one thing...

In her right hand was a blade that while not particularly long was unusually wide. It essentially hollow in the middle having nothing but the edges to what would've made a normal blade. The handle was purple with white diamonds and had a guard as wide as the blade. He saw three holes on each side of the guard big enough to place your fingers in, most likely a way to unsheathe it. it's sheathe hanging across her back horizontally.

Oh and the fact she was FUCKING FLYING?!

'Well...this is.. interesting un..' Deidara thought. as he watched the woman cautiously both remained quite in what seemed to be a pregnant night. That was till she lifted her blade and pointed it towards him.

"I would recommend letting him go..." She spoke coolly, sending shivers up Deidara's spin. Unfortunately his next words had already decided his fate.

"And why would I do that Un..?" He replied challenging her. Next thing he knew he let out a piercing scream as he grasped the arm that once held the Ichibi. He felt what remained of his arm burning up.

"Interesting.." He heard her say in a mono-toned way to his shock he turned around to see her behind him with the Jinchuuriki in her left arm. "It appears I didn't just cut your arm... but part of your soul as well..."

This shocked Deidara, if he remembered correctly Kisame and Itachi had reported that Orochimaru had suffered this similarly through the death reaper seal... Looking down to the arm that was cut off he saw howit had turned black and rotted. This left him shocked... and so fixated on the fact his soul was cut he was oblivious to the fact that the woman seemed to be gathering energy into her unusual blade... at least not till it was too late..

"Ola Azul"

Yellow like energy seemed to shoot off the blade aiming for his head as he lifted his head in time... to have it blown off. Blood splattered through the air as he and his clay construct plummeted to the earth and upon impact blew up both the construct and his headless corpse.

Tier turned her head away from the gory experience, yes she hated killing people she always had but... what the Akatsuki planned was even more dangerous than the actual plan Aizen had. She couldn't let it happen. Even if she detested killing, if it was justified than she would do it with no hesitation.

She turned back and began trekking back to what was likely Gaara's village...

When Gaara wakes up... there'll be a lot of explaining to do...
