"Now, let's leave."

One week later

"Ughh, my head… what happened?" Asked Kurama as she woke up. As she looked around, she noticed a woman that could rival Kaguya in power from the looks of it. "Um… excuse me but, who are you?"

"Really? You don't remember me? I was there for your creation. I was the first thing you saw. My name was your first word. This is kind of insulting ya know?" Kami said, genuine hurt appearing in her voice.

"But… I first saw the sage of six paths with Ka-" She didn't finish the sentence as she realized who she was talking to.

"AUNT KAMI!" Kurama yelled, pure joy in her voice.

"Finally remember me? It's been a while dear, how have you been?" Kami asked, a smile appearing on her lips.

"Aunt Kami, I have so much to tell you! Not all of it is good but about three years ago, something really good happened!" Kurama said, to excited to fully hear what Kami was saying.

"What was that? Did it have something to do with Naruto here?" She asked as she gestured to the still twitching Naruto. 'He should be up any minute now…'

"Yeah, it d-" Kurama stopped as she noticed Naruto on the floor, twitching. "You didn't do what I think you did… did you?"

"What do you think I did?" Kami asked, confused and cautious.

"He wasn't immortal, was he?"

"No… only the nine original Bijuu and your children." Kami said sadly, confirming what she said.

"Why…" Kurama whispered. "Why wouldn't he be immortal…?"

"Kurama, ple-"

"NO!" Roared Kurama.

'J-just like N-Naruto… she isn't mad, she's pissed…' Kami thought to herself, noticing the look in her eyes. 'Why does this seem to happen to me?'

"You will make him immortal or else I shall kill a goddess today!" Kurama yelled, knowing she would die if she fought Kami. 'I can't just let Naruto die without me though.'

"Kurama, please, just give me a second to explain!" Kami exclaimed, surprised by Kurama's words.

"Explain what? That Naruto won't be immo-"

"HE IS BECOMING IMMORTAL!" Kami yelled, getting her attention.

"What do you mean?" Kurama asked.

"I used my Lightning Style: Immortal Burn to make him immortal." Kami explained, surprising Kurama. She almost never made a mortal immortal. The last time this happened was with Indra and Ashura. Did she want something from Naruto after this was done? Or did she do this for him and his family?

"What do you want from him?" Kurama growled. You never dealt with a god or goddess and walk away from it for free. There was always a price and sometimes it was your life. "If you want him, then you might as well kill us all because I won't let you take him."

"Kurama, enough! I only want one thing from him." Kami said, noticing the decrease and then sudden spike in killing intent surrounding them. "Remember when I had my first and only champion? Remember your brother Ashura?"

"What of him?" Kurama asked, now curious as to why Kami would want anything to do with Ashura.

"I want Naruto to be my new champion."

No sooner were those words uttered than Naruto began to stir. His head felt like a thousand hammers were striking it at the same time with the strength of Kurama's punches. He could also smell singed flesh and hair from getting hit with enough electricity to kill a village.

"Wat ar yu two argung abot now?" Naruto asked, his speech slurred a little from being unconscious for a week.

"Perfect timing, now we can ask his opinion on this matter." Said Kami, stunning Naruto once again that she was before him.

"Maybe you should enlighten him as to what we were arguing about before he woke up." Kurama replied. She was both happy and mad that Naruto had chosen to wake up at this moment.

"I suppose… Fine, I'll tell him." Kami said, upset that she had to tell Naruto what was happening. "Naruto, you will become my champion from now on."

"Wht yu mean, champin?" Naruto slurred, still not used to speaking yet. 'Damn it, this needs to go away! And what does she mean champion?'

"You will do what I ask when I ask without fail. If it gets too dangerous though, you will fall back and abandon the mission." Kami explained, surprising Kurama. It wasn't what she expected.

"That's all? I thought you would have said there was more to it." Kurama said, her voice questioning.

"There might be more…" Kami said quietly. It didn't help though, because both Kurama and Naruto heard it with their more sensitive hearing.

"Like what?" Naruto asked, losing the slur. Hearing that tone again made Kami and Kurama shiver in fear.

"You have to stop doing that Naruto! That voice scares even me and Shinigami!" Yelled Kami, mouth turned down in a frown.

"Why should I? You seem to deserve it at times and maybe I should make a deal with Narano that he can kill you and Shinigami so everyone can live in peace and without fear." Naruto said, still mad at her. "Lucky for you though, I know I'm not strong enough to control him once he gets loose. I have no choice but to keep him locked up. Now, tell me what else there is or I won't care anymore and will let him loose to kill you."

"Fine! You want to know what there is that I didn't tell you? One day you will come to me for a favor you have no choice in and the price will be grave. You are already set on this path and were bound for it the moment you and Kurama became mates." Kami said, not only shocking Naruto and Kurama but getting herself pushed against the wall as well.

"Let me tell you something, Kami. I won't be asking you for any favors that put anything I hold dear at risk, no matter the situation. Remember that before you speak next time and be glad I agreed to be your champion." Naruto said in Narano's demonic voice. He had almost made Kurama faint and even managed to make Kami piss herself in fear. 'Guess I don't know the true effects of that tone. This is going to be fun when I test it out on Kami and Shinigami.'

Just outside of Konoha

"When do we attack?" A voice asked, getting impatient. "We have the army gathered and have been waiting for almost half a year."

"Soon, very soon." A voice responded. "We still need to wait for the leader.

"I want a concrete answer, now."

"A week at most, sir. I don't see it taking longer than that."
