This is my seventh chapter of "Ending the Legacy" and to be honest I hadn't planned it to go this far, I was going to end it with the last one, but anyway I have some ideas for the chapters that are upcoming so enjoy this one and tell me what you think.

Chapter 7 – Shaky Relations

Two weeks have passed since Konan almost died, Nagato has restored all his paths and he is now managing to walk again the chakra rods that were stuck in his back have been removed by Nagato himself, he had to do it carefully by shattering them so they would fall to pieces without them touching his spine and leaving him in a worse condition than what he was, he is now wearing a Akatsuki cloak which covers up all the scars left by the chakra rods.

They have to keep moving so that they aren't seen by anyone, they are currently in a paper tree that Konan made it's big and will last for the next few days "How are you feeling?" Nagato asks Konan "its fine, the pain is barley there, how are you doing?" Konan replies "I'm doing well; it's all getting easier as time goes on, I'll be good as new soon." He says with a smile.

Konan looks out the gap in the tree; she can see trees swaying in the breeze and in the distance the Leaf Village standing tall and proud but still suffering the effects from the impact that the Akatsuki left, Konan sighs and looks back at Nagato struggling to walk she goes over and offers support "It's not getting better is it? The walking, Nagato you need to find medical attention." Konan says firmly, Nagato knows she is right, he isn't going to get better by himself "Konan your right, but where?" Nagato brings up the problem; no one can answer Konan looks back at the gap in the tree and sees the Leaf Village "The Leaf Village!"

There is a long pause before Nagato breaks the silence "Konan you know what I did, it would be catastrophe, it would end badly, in bloodshed." Konan just looks at him, he is exhausted when he is just standing, no condition to take action "I don't care, I care too much about you, were going." Konan will force him into it if she has too; Nagato can't deny it and just nods he knows that Tsunade out of all people would be able to do it.

"Okay, we should go now." Nagato tells Konan, she smiles she is glad that he agrees, they make their way out and the tree falls to pieces of paper it's not, it won't take long to get to the Leaf Village. Konan and Nagato decide to go through the Leaf Village, it's the only way that is safe enough "Konan this was a bad idea." Nagato says to Konan, he is coming to grips with what he did to the Leaf Village "No Nagato, you need this." They head on and make their way to the end of the village as they get glared at by the villagers.

They get closer to Hokage Office which is in its early stages of reconstruction, it is more of a wooden frame structure but still inhabitable, they start to make their way up the stairs. Nagato gulps and goes through to the office followed by Konan "Not now I haven't got the time to be dealing with mediocre chores, come back later." Tsunade orders them not knowing who is standing before them "Lady Tsunade." Nagato says to her, she instantly stops writing and drops the pen "That voice…" Tsunade looks up expecting to see Pain but instead Nagato and Konan "THE AKATSUKI!" She jumps up and goes into kick them both but Konan moves them both out the way "Please just hear us out!" Nagato pleads "Why should I help you, can't you see what Pain did last time, I won't let another person with the rinnegan cause more damage!" Tsunade shouts not giving Nagato the time to justify himself.

"Right!" He shouts and puts his arm out and has Tsunade frozen in position "No!" Konan shouts trying to lower his hand but she can't "Don't worry I won't hurt her." He says reassuringly "Now that I have you it's time to listen." Tsunade grunts "First of all my name is Nagato, I am the person who destroyed the Leaf Village but I was just using a path to do so, and he was under the name of Pain." Tsunade is now listening to every word "I also have come here with a request, and you are the only person with the expertise to help. I recently had the chakra rods removed from my back and instead of getting better my situation grows worse, so I need medical help to get better." This is a lot to take in from Nagato but Tsunade is processing it all.
