This chapter starts at the time after Tibi died but before she blacked out after feeling as if she was falling. It'll make more sense as you read. Enjoy!

Chapter 4: The Meeting

I opened my eyes and saw nothing.

Wait what?

I mean, I was somewhere but nothing was around. It was as if I was in a gray-white void. Is this what death is like? Am I stuck here forever or am I supposed to wait for something else?

As I pondered I heard a soft 'er-herm' cough from behind me. I turned around to see an elderly man wearing a full length kimono sitting in the air. He had pale-red hair and a long goatee of the same color. What surprised me the most was his rinnegan eyes and the red rinnegan marking in the middle of his forehead.

"Hagoromo Otsutsuki…" I breathed out.

"So you know who I am?" he calmly stated.

"O-of course. You're the sage of the six paths. I've read all about you in the Naruto manga, anime, and the Naruto wikia. Wait…how am I speaking to you if you're fictional?!" Needless to say, I had many questions running through my head right then.

He looked to be deep in thought," I am not fictional. I really did exist at one time. As for you, who are you and how did you get into this dimension?"

"I am Tiana Biston or Tibi. And what do you mean? What dimension? Where are we anyway?"

"We are somewhere but nowhere at the same time. At the time of my death I put the last of my chakra as well as my consciousness into this world. That is merely what I, and right now you, are; chakra with a consciousness. This dimension is, as you would put it, the 'Naruto Universe' and you must be from a dimension that knows of all the other existing dimensions." Hagoromo explained.

I looked at him dumbfounded, "Huh? This has to be some kind of a death-dream thing. You can't actually exist. You're just a character in Masashi Kishimoto's manga. No offense or anything. I can't be a 'chakra-consciousness'. Chakra isn't real. This whole conversation isn't real!"

Hagoromo still looked calm but held the aura that seemed to say 'I am getting way too old for this shit'. "Look child, this is real. I suddenly felt you arrive into this dimension so I merely came over to figure out what was happening. I have deducted from this conversation that you are from another dimension where people subconsciously and without knowing, write about what is, has, or will happen in another world. A power that even they don't know exists. And you somehow took that power even further by crossing into this dimension."

I thought about this," So what you're saying is that people from my Earth subconsciously knows about other dimensions, can write, speak, or whatever it down, and after dying I had left my body and somehow let my spirit (or chakra-consciousness) cross into this dimension where you found me and is currently conversing with."

Hagoromo nodded his head.

"Wow. I always knew there was something different about me but damn. This is….a lot." I try to wrap my head around all this. All of my favorite things: Naruto, Fairy Tale, Inuyasha, Marvel, DC, and so many more….is all real and we didn't even know it.

"I understand this must be a lot for you take in but everything that I said and you said must be and is the truth." Hagoromo said to me.

"So what do I do? Where do I go from here?" I ask. The sage looks me over and goes into deep thought.

"I believe that you are here for a reason. A reason unexplained right now. I have decided to use my 'creation of all things' ability to give you a new body and a chance at a new life. It will give you the ability to have and use chakra. Use it well. It will also allow you the ability to speak the same language."

I look at him wide-eyed. He's going to use the same ability he used to create the tailed beasts to give me a new life? In my favorite manga as well! Well, I guess it's not just a manga now.

"Thank you so very much." was all I could say.

"I don't have as much chakra as I had when I was alive so it may come with some side effects." He warned.

"Such as?"

"You may have some memory loss and a change in appearance."

I think about my options. Stay here and float around forever or gain a new life with the side effects? I choose option B.

Hagoromo must have noticed my decision by my appearance. A red flame in his left hand and a blue flame in his right hand appeared. Each creating the yin-yang jutsu. "I have a feeling that we will meet again one day. Until then, farewell Tibi."

Then he sent me on my way.

Now we are getting somewhere :) I hope this made sense. She spoke to Hagoromo (and ultimately lost her memory of the meeting) before she fell through the portal above the meadow. please review and such! Thanks!
