Epilogue:

Things quickly had elevated after Naruto, Kisame, and Itachi's attack on Konoha. Many countries finally agreed that the best thing they could do would be to gather the remaining Jinchuuriki and prepare them for war. They couldn't allow the demons to fall into Akatsuki's hands. The Akatsuki was angered at this obviously and had rallied together some week nations and had created their own small village, very small yet they were deadly. Naruto had achieved FOS in the bingo book and was ranked as a double S criminal. He had a large bounty on his head that rivaled that of other members. After awhile Pain saw it nesaccary to declare the fourth great ninja war and did so. Many were shocked and fearful but the strong leaders knew it was inevitable. Three months after the declaration more countries began to take sides. Some took the Akatsuki's side and their group was really small while most countries took Konoha's side or remained neutral. The Akatsuki also gained a few new members that Pain saw fit to join the ranks and from there the end of book 1 takes place.

Quick A/N, this is going to be rather short.

A dead corpse hit the ground with a dull thud as the person who killed it took a step back. They eyed their handy work and grinned. It was one more person foolish enough to come after him. Naruto looked upon the dead body of a root ANBU that he recognized as a boy called Sai. Naruto would grant the boy one thing, he was tough. His ink jutsu had surprised Naruto at first but the blond soon destroyed him using his Fusion form. Naruto wiped his bloody blade on Sai's clothes and walked towards his partner. They were new to the organization but Naruto knew them well.

"Ready to go my love?" he said joking around but his words still held depth.

"Sure, why not Naruto-kun?" Temari replied as she shook her long hair out.

"So where to next, we have completed both missions." Naruto said as they began to walk from the abandon building they had fought in.

"Hmm, well we haven't been on a date for awhile." Temari said as she wrapped her arms around him.

"True, but we have to focus at the tasks on hand. We are in the middle of a huge war." Naruto said as he rubbed the girl's hair gently. He turned his head and met her sapphire eyes that mirrored his own.

Temari had joined the group about a month after Naruto had killed Shikimaru. She said that she wanted to be with him and she had nothing holding her in place at her village since Kankuro had died in a fight with Tobi. Naruto had consulted Pain and he agreed that Temari was talented and she also knew Suna well and that would benefit them greatly. It took only a few weeks for her initiation where she had t assassinate the last elder in Suna and she did so with ease. Or so she said.

"Well we could go to Kumo…" she said seductively as she ran a hand down his neck. "Get some ramen…" she whispered in his ear. "And then kill the Raikage." She finished as she kissed his cheek.

Naruto chuckled for a little bit as he thought about what a great time it would be. Ramen, assassination, and best of all a date with his beautiful girlfriend. "If only we could, but I doubt you could take the Raikage on in a fair fight." Naruto said as he kissed Temari gently upon her lips.

The blond girl whined as her ploy to get him to take her out failed. "Jerk…" she muttered and Naruto began to laugh again.

"If I'm a jerk then why are you dating me?" he said as he poked her in the side.

"Because you're my jerk." She replied simply as she, returned his kiss only made it deeper then the first.

"That's the way I like it then!" Naruto said as they disappeared in a red flash.

"So Konoha sent another assassin after you?" Pain asked with a sigh and Naruto chuckled as he held Temari close to him.

"Yeah, this one was by far the strongest and he had a weird jutsu, it was ink style I believe is what he said." Naruto replied as he ran his fingers through Temari's hair subconsciously.

"Hmmm, I never heard of that jutsu, I should investigate it." Pain muttered before looking back at Naruto. "Well in any case we have other problems. The Jinchuuriki that are in training… their location is still unknown and we can't figure it out." Pain said and Naruto sighed as he stopped rubbing Temari's hair.

"Yeah, but where could they be. How hard is it to detect that many demonic presences?" Naruto muttered.

"Yes I haven't been able to find them in Konoha, Suna, nor Kumo." Zetsu said as his body emerged from the floor.

"Yeah and they were not in Grass country when I went there." Kisame said with a frown.

"Tobi hasn't seen them in Mist village." Tobi said as he rolled on the balls of his feet.

Pain rubbed his temples with his fingers and looked back at his group. There were eleven there as of now with the new replacements. Konan, Tobi, Naruto, Temari, Kisame, Itachi, Zetsu, Himself, Hidan who Naruto had found away to save, and two others that usually remained silent. He himself stood in the room in person, not using a heliograph for the first time in awhile. Konan stood by him since many members finally asked Pain who she was and after awhile he complied.

"So what should we do, I mean I can go to Konoha with Naruto and start some shit because it has been awhile since I have done so." Hidan said as he spun his scythe around his head and grinned at Naruto who returned it.

"That would be a good idea but we need Konoha alive since they know the location of the Jinchuuriki. So if I sent you and Naruto along the village would become ancient history." Pain muttered and Temari giggled.

"True, Naruto is a bit reckless." She said remembering how he had "accidently" as he put it, destroyed a large bridge in wave country. Coincidently it was the one that he had saved when he was a younger kid but now it was just concrete at the bottom of the ocean.

"Oh well…" Naruto muttered kissing the back of her neck. "The group needs people with a sense of humor."

Most of the members laughed at this, well the only people that didn't were Itachi, Pain, Zetsu, and the two other recruits. Itachi didn't laugh because he never showed emotion, Pain didn't laugh because he thought it was beneath him, Zetsu didn't really care, and the two other recruits were just…yeah.

"Well either way we have no choice but to just observe the movements of our enemies. And when I say observe I mean it." Pain said looking at Naruto and Kisame.

"Sounds cool Boss." Naruto said as he stood to his feet and picked Temari up. He ran at Pain and right before he collided with him he disappeared in a red flash. He had taken to doing this a lot now because it irritated the man.

"That boy, if he doesn't get killed I'm going to end up doing it one day." The Akatsuki leader said as he grabbed Konan and they winked out of existence.

A/N Okay so not a long Epilogue but oh well you guys can deal with it. So I will start book 2 sometime in the future, but first I going to rethink it since I put Temari into the Akatsuki. Actually this is another plot line change and I hope you guys find it acceptable. Anyways the next book will be called…

The Untold Story: War

Or something like that I am not sure yet, but anyways. Peace out sour kraut and until my Sister gets out of the hospital do not expect great chapters like my other ones, well my writing style may change after she is out so yeah.
