AN: Here's the poll, should this become a Naruto X Twilight Sparkle x Starlight Glimmer? She does become Twilight's apprentice after all, also I start season 6 in two chapters. Short chapter BTW and kid of a filler.
Chapter 9
It was gone. All of it was gone, Konoha had been reduced to a crater and nobody had any idea what had happened, all they'd seen was that massive pillar of energy. Gaara had gotten multiple reports about the aftermath within a day after the incident. Everyone from to Suna to Samurai Country was freaking out. One of the major villages had been destroyed and the accusations were going around like wild fire. The other villages were now fearful that they would be next. Trade routes were broken and stopped, fights had broken out, and things were getting much more hectic by the day. "Even Akatsuki has gone silent because of what happened." Gaara stated. "Just thinking about it makes me want throw up, but I—I know Naruto had something to do with this." Temari and Kankuro were more than shocked to hear this. "It may even be possible that—that he did this, I recognized that power as his." He stood up. "I want to know where Naruto is right now, I'm classifying this as an S-Ranked mission." In the back of his mind he prayed that Naruto didn't do this, and he hoped that he was right.
Equestria – Ponyville – Castle
"Well, that's basically the situation in a nutshell; they're both royalty." Twilight stated. Her friends sat there with mouths agape as they tried to process this information. Naruto and Sunset Shimmer were the blood related great grandchildren of both Celestia and Luna.
"This is all so sudden." Rarity stated. "And to think, Sunset Shimmer was a princess all along, if she'd know this earlier then maybe she wouldn't have—you know." the implication wasn't missed, her gaze went to the princess in question. "Sorry."
"It's okay, I actually agree with you." Sunset Shimmer stated. "But, it all worked out for the best I suppose." She looked down the hall. "Well maybe not all of it."
"Why is he holed up in his room anyway?" Rainbow questioned. The two princesses cringed a bit; they couldn't exactly tell them that Naruto committed genocide on a massive scale and for revenge no less. The girls weren't familiar with a situation as delicate as this. Naruto had kept himself in his room since he came back, he'd been repressing it so much but the dam had finally broken only a few minutes after he got back as the realization that he'd taken so many lives with little to no effort. He was so powerful and that was what scared him so much. "And you're sure dragging him out isn't a good idea?"
"If you want to be turned to ash then be my guest." Twilight said. "Besides he'll come out when he's ready, patience—where's Pinkie Pie?" the pink haired girl was gone. In Naruto's room, the blonde-red haired teen found himself more that surprised to see the hyper active Pinkie Pie jumping on his bed.
"Didn't I lock the door?"
"Yep." Pinkie stated before looking to the open window. Somehow he wasn't surprised to see such a thing, but there was a question that he had. How did she get all the way up here? "You did something bad didn't you?" Naruto nodded. "And you feel guilty about it because though your intention was to protect your friends your conscious won't let you forget that your actions were drastic; so now you're locking yourself away from everyone." She took a breath. "Please be careful otherwise you'll push away the pain so hard, that you'll disconnect yourself from the person you love the most... Sometimes, when you win, you lose." The pink party pastry chef held her arms open. "Come on, it's ok." Naruto's tears now streamed down his eyes as Pinkie enveloped him in a hug. The pain wouldn't go away in an instant but over time these mental scars would heal, and he was thankful that he had friends and his sister by his side. Thankful that he wasn't alone.
A Month Later – Equestria – Ponyville – Lake
Naruto liked taking a break from others; taking some time for himself was nice. Especially after a morning meal of breakfast and Twilight. 'Is it just my imagination or has she been acting a bit more fierce during the month?' he cracked his neck a bit albeit a bit uncomfortably, Twilight wasn't heavy but she took a while to reach her climax. 'Sure she has all the fun but she won't even let me…' he groaned. 'Been backed up since the first time.' Sexual frustration was plaguing Naruto and he hated it, and he refused to do it himself in the same place he lived with his own sister. "I swear if she's trying to kill me then she's doing a great job." Taking his shirt off allowed him to spread his wings. "So glad they wet sunny today." Lying down onto the chair that he brought, he allowed himself to relax.
"This place is so peaceful that you'd never want to leave." A familiar voice said.
"It really is a great place to live." The blonde-red head responded.
"Good place to raise kids, they could live a normal life unlike kids born in the Elemental Nations." he stated. Opening his eyes Naruto found none other than Garra. "It's been a while Naruto-san, or should I call you Prince Naruto?" said prince couldn't help but chuckle a bit.
"Just Naruto is fine, and it's good to see you again." Leaning up he stretched out a bit once more.
"These wings are real."
"That's right, they finally grew out when my magic fully came out, and the best thing about these things is the flying; that feeling of freedom is more than enough to get ya pumped up." Flapping his wing a bit caused a breeze strong enough that it lightly flowed across the river creating ripples. "But you're here for another reason and it isn't to just say hello to a friend." He looked to the sky and then to Gaara. "It's about Konoha."
"A month ago it was all turned into a massive crater without warning, and since then things have been out of control with the other hidden villages; they turned against each other without warning a week ago. Iwa, Kumo, and Mist are warring with each other; I've done a good job keeping Suna out of the fighting but I need to know the truth." Naruto gave his friend a neutral look. "Did you have anything to do with Konoha's destruction?"
"Yes."
"What was your involvement?"
"I did it, I destroyed the entire village in a single attack after they broke the agreement we had, allow me to explain." Naruto held nothing back and told Gaara everything, the Kazekage found himself able to understand Naruto's feelings and why he did what he did. "Understand that they didn't keep their part of the deal and I had no intention of going back to finish them off unless given a reason, but when Narumi came here and did what she did…I couldn't let that go and you know that I would've done the same for you if it came to it." Gaara was both happy to hear this but at the same time he was a bit disturbed. "Wait, Akatsuki went quiet after I destroyed the village?" Gaara nodded. "Is it possible that they know it was me, and if they do know then they probably know about what happened to the Kyubi?" he'd been one of their targets because he held the Kyubi inside of him, but with the beast dead then they no longer had a reason to come after him. Unless they want to make sure that the Kyubi is truly gone or they want revenge as whatever they were planning can't be completed without the Nine Tails.
"Thank you for telling me the truth, Naruto-san."
"Gaara, the next time we meet, I hope that he situation will be much better."
"As do I." shaking hands the two separated once more, it would be a while before they meet again. Behind Naruto was the Moon Princess, she'd kept herself hidden while Naruto spoke to Gaara; granted Naruto knew she was there the whole time.
"I'm responsible for a war breaking out and I've put my friend and his village in danger." Luna set her hand onto her great grandson's shoulder.
"You didn't make their leaders go to war with each other, they chose to do so, on their own accord; what happened after Konoha's destruction wasn't your fault." She said trying to reassure him. "Your only concern now, is living your life as best you can." Naruto simply nodded. He was worried about Gaara and Suna, but if the other villages wanted to kill each other then let them, as long as they didn't bring the people he cared about in the crossfire then let them pointlessly kill each other. For the rest of the day the two would simply relax together, family time was nice as well.
