AN: I feel as if this was one of my worst attempts of writing a chapter. Not much action, trying to get the other characters decent screen time and something else I can't think of but it bugs me. Sorry if this isn't a better quality chapter faithful readers.


Sakuya began recollecting what her younger sister from the future spoke of-Boruto and Himawari Uzumaki; the Firstborn Son and Daughter of Naruto and rightful heirs to this blossoming kingdom and her older siblings by blood. The history was they hailed from a different timeline that was forcefully erased, many people killed in that but few survived and exist in the new and current timeline.

Their father was quite young when he encountered them and learned only of their situation, but not the name of their mother which if revealed, can cause more problems in the long run of the future relationship; since their Naruto in this timeline was an artificial chimera of demons, dragon, and human blood which caused his relationship with others to be...complicated. He had vast magical power at his disposal but no chakra as a result of his creation, something his creator deliberately took away for some unknown reason.

A betrayal from Jiraiya of all people set events in motion that lead to here, Sakuya's new 'father' being 'divided' into several incarnations and each seeking to reunite as a whole. Then a purge attempt against the Uzumaki clan and then Boruto and Himawari's deaths by Jiraiya's hand, which Naruto himself witnessed in person.

Needless to say Konoha did not survive the newly crowned Golden Demise once his rampage began. The vision of her new father's wrath was of legends, a true divine being that herald nothing but destruction and ruin in his wake, and what was worse is that he was a devil with three heads, a nightmare only those of Japanese heritage could truly understand.

Turanox was not that aspect of Naruto, for he is nothing more than a self-proclaimed empty shell seeking something. It was the living body that had only a small soul and no heart waiting to be filled with either Light or Dark and the line between the two is very thin.

Meanwhile, Aqua sat a distance away looking outward as she began her recollection of the past. She remembered how she first met Naruto in a forest, of how he gave her a name and took her to see the world...of her Keyblade Inheritance he bestowed to her. Of course, that timeline didn't exist then, but somehow it existed now and she had to make sure history was kept in full circle for the sake of the future that is yet to come.

That was why she was here, weaving the threads of fate and destiny in the proper order as the cycle continues to flow through. But there was another thing she was assigned to do here in the past: nurture the two Keybearers destined to oppose Turanox. For now she must make sure Sakuya is strong enough to handle the kingdom until her newest sister arrives from Turanox's adventure.


Sasuke once again considered himself on not wanting kids when he got older. Babysitting the young girl these Angels seek for some reason was starting to grate his nerves. Not because she was annoying, she was a sweet kid but it seems she has a knack of attracting a lot of unwanted attention from these flock heads as he had just butchered another one. It was pissing him off to no end, especially that big lug of an Angel that might as well be a glorified sumo statue that traumatized the poor girl. He was lucky Bayonetta had it fed to one of her...pets.

Her demons...Sasuke was unfamiliar with. Compared to the oni, youkai and kami of his land's culture these supernatural creatures follow a different system and seem to be the typical good vs evil scheme of things. The question that's bugging the Uchiha was which side is the evil one so he can kill them for harassing him non-stop since he got to this world.

"Penny for your thoughts Junior?" Bayonetta asked as Sasuke frowned at the nickname but brushed it off. "Just thinking how messed up the supernatural world is in this world, too chaotic with the whole order vs chaos and your past being related to it all since these guys seem familiar to you." he grunted as he gaze the young girl accompanying them via a piggyback ride.

"Well since things are going well on our side, I'm sure the truth will come to pass quite sooner than you think." Bayonetta answered as she stride forward without a care.

Sasuke wanted to get out of this world fast-first the witch, then angels, Luka's random appearances, lava, and babysitting with religious blasphemy every corner of his eye with laws of physics constantly getting screwed with by magic hair? This world was a living headache for him and he's not a native to insanity which was in Naruto's department.

He so blames Naruto for this mess he's in and he's going to kick the blond's sorry ass from here to Konoha when he gets his hands on him. That was when the wind picked up and Luka once again made his dramatic entrance.

"Where the hell does he pop up from?" the Uchiha wondered as his timing is something else and wondered if the guy was some sort of shinobi in disguise. That was when the wind was starting to pick up while Bayonetta began teasing the poor reporter with her usual wit that makes adults fluster easily.

"Oh for the love of...Bayonetta, we've got a big one up ahead with small fry coming in!" Sasuke called out as the Umbra Witch merely had a playful smirk. "Alright Junior, keep those two safe while I go give our friends a good talking too. Wouldn't take too long." she told him as Sasuke lifted both Luka and Cereza and leap back a good distance as the bridge got destroyed while Bayonetta entered Purgatory to combat the Angels and their high commander in this area.

"Time to get a good seat for the show." the Uchiha mused as he might as well see this woman kick that sorry Angel into the next realm. And he would not be disappointed.

*Hinata-After Corrin's defection*

The funeral of Queen Mikoto was a silent one as grief filled the entire city as the four royal siblings of Hoshido gave their mother their proper respect as the casket was lowered into the ground for proper burial.

She knew they were tense due to Princess Corrin's actions-attacking the commanders of both Hoshido and Nohr labeled her an enemy of both sides. That was what had been decided but Hinata knew better, she saw the pained look in the girl's eyes at the critical decision to choose between her family and chosen to forsake her status as princess of either kingdom. Hinata respected Corrin for that, because she made the choice to not kill one member of her family from either side-a testament of one's unconditional love for one's family.

It made her think of her own family, lost to the darkness when her world was consumed. There was one way to restore it and she didn't like it at all but the only way to save her world...is to defeat Naruto.

"Hinata, what will you do now?" Ryoma asked, the prince's eye was gauging her reaction as she knew his anger and hate for Nohr had that same reflection of Naru-Turanox's when he destroyed everything.

"There is a great darkness infecting this world. I have to walk a different path from here on out but will keep in touch." she answered as Ryoma nodded his head. "Then I wish you safe travels, and may we meet again soon."

With that, Hinata slowly began walking away from the ceremony, giving Takumi a passing but respectful nod as the prince did as well as pupil and master respectively went their own ways.

*Hinata-Now*

A Soldier Heartless crashed into the wall as its heart floated away while a Large Body Heartless began running to her as she fired a Thunder spell at it. She leapt to the roof as her Keyblade ended a Gargoyle as a few more appeared with five Yellow Opera alongside them. Hinata sighed as she observed the ruined village. It was without a doubt these creatures responsible for the disappearance of the people that resided here. She had to make sure these things don't go anywhere; twirling her Keyblade in hand she charged at her prey, intending to end them for good.


*Turanox*

"Do you know what it's like to be a Nobody at birth?—To not truly feel anything while being scorned by both Light and Dark for merely existing?" Turanox mused from his resting spot at the peach tree as he bit into one of the fruits. Xakuras and Ixon looked at each other, confusion on their faces while Xion had her face hidden under the hood still as they sat apart from him. When he looked at them, a gaze colder than ice itself pierced them.

"Emptiness…Robbed of a heart at birth; I lived among the shinobi for a decent amount of time and had a loving family that cared for me even when I lacked chakra. But I could not feel...I was hollow and felt only nothing within me. If I could kill my own mother, father and sister right now...it wouldn't bother me even now." he admitted and he had a forlorn expression on his face.

It disturbed the three Nobodies of how casual he was admitting he won't bat an eyelash if he killed his own family. "You three however, were robbed of hearts after the darkness consumed it. You were able to cling to your sense of self and memories to retain characteristics of your human identities. My question is...can you regain your heart through alternative means if Kingdom Hearts is a failure?" he questioned as the three froze at that.

The Superior of In-Between claimed that Kingdom Hearts would be the key to regaining their hearts, but what if their hearts weren't there? And then Xakuras and Ixon took note of Turanox's gaze, as if he's expecting them to give a good answer. "...Naruto." Xakuras began, speaking her classmate's old name as the boy narrowed his eyes.

"Even if Kingdom Hearts doesn't give us back our hearts...we can make new ones." Xakuras reasoned as Turanox cupped his chin in thought.

"...Perhaps. The heart is born of experience and knowledge...of the trials the individual faces and the symbol of who they are. You might be on to something Xakuras." Turanox noted as the pink haired Nobody smiled at that. "Very well then, we shall experiment. Socialize and interact with people to experience new things-for who knows. Maybe one day that guess of yours might hold fragments of truth. You too Xion." he ordered as the other three Nobodies nodded their heads in agreement to their superior.

With that, Xakuras, Ixon and Xion got up and began walking off to do their own thing. While that happened Turanox placed a hand over his chest where his heart should be and there was no beat. "One day...I will not rely on Tenryū and Naraku for emotions." the Uzumaki promised himself. He will have his own emotions, his own ideals; his own self-Naruto Uzumaki will be complete once more.

Then, that voice from beyond spoke again.

Turanox my friend, relax. Lower your guard, sheath your weapons. Here you are in a safe place. You followed my teachings as Naruto long before we've meet or heard of each other. We both seek to evolve.

"Yet our actions were condemned as evil." Turanox grunted getting a feeling this was what 'annoyed' felt like.

Evil! Evil means 'socially maladaptive.' We are adaptiveness itself.

The world is not built on the laws they love. Not on friendship, but on mutual interest. Not on peace, but on victory by any means. The universe is run by extinction, by extermination, by gamma-ray bursts burning up a thousand garden worlds, by howling singularities eating up infant suns.

And if life is to live, if anything is to survive through the end of all things, it will live not by the smile but by the sword, not in a soft place but in a hard hell, not in the rotting bog of artificial paradise but in the cold hard self-verifying truth of that one ultimate arbiter, the only judge, the power that is its own metric and its own source—existence, at any cost. Strip away the lies and truces and delaying tactics they call 'civilization' and this is what remains, this beautiful shape.

The fate of everything is made like this, in the collision, the test of one praxis against another. This is how the world changes: one way meets a second way, and they discharge their weapons, they exchange their words and markets, they contest and in doing so they petition each other for the right to go on being something, instead of nothing. This is the universe figuring out what it should be in the end.

And it is majestic. Majestic. It is the only thing that can be true in and of itself.

And it is what I am.

Turanox nodded at this, he could see the truth of humans themselves. The first primitive civilizations formed through mutual interests of survival, using any underhanded tactic to get where they are now or else face extinction. Humans found comfort in their villages or cities under the idea that it leads to peace and paradise. They have forgotten the meaning of Death-The Ender of Worlds.

That was then; he recalled a certain madman and his ambitions from a lifetime long ago...

"Perhaps that was why Nione created Cypher Naruto, for Nione was a fragment of Death...seeking to balance out the overflowing Life." Turanox realized. For 'peace' meant man could reproduce without any problem and spread like an infection on numerous worlds. Earth had over six billion lives and they keep multiplying like maggots to a carcass until a fire in the name of war rang out to burn them.

The ones that survive grow into flies and then struggle to survive to breed again. Same with humans, for Earth is the carcass, children the maggots, adults as the flies. But in the end, their value was worthless since they are many and why the scales must be tipped.

Jiraiya preached of peace but there is no true peace. Everyone had darkness in them as they compete and evolve into something greater. Turanox too must compete; he must kill and take, survive and grow into a new form. For that, the darkness must fest and grows for the Light had blinded many with delusions of grandeur and hope.

In one incarnation, Naruto Uzumaki would be a savior of the world.

In another, the role of savior was switched to destroyer.

That is Cypher Naruto's role-balance out salvation and order with destruction and chaos. Only the strong should be allowed to guide the new worlds. For might controls everything, because without it how can you save anyone? Let alone oneself?

Yes Turanox, there's a knife for you. It is shaped like [Overwhelming Force]. Take up the knife, embrace your new shape.

Without knowing it, Turanox's lips curved upward as he continued to play game of loyal follower of Corrin. These Dark Worlds follow the logic the voice speak of already, little pushes in the right direction should help make this war be glorious—three kingdoms vying for control of the world, and only one victor. Let these games of thrones begin, and with the new ruler crowned in the ashes of the new era.


Supports Scene!

"Hey Ixon." Xakuras spoke up, getting the blonde's attention. "What's up Forehead?" she asked as Xakuras had a troubled expression on her face. "Do you think we'll ever get our hearts back?" Xakuras pondered with doubt as Ixon patted her on the shoulder. "Cheer up! Once we're done, we'll be back to the old competition of whose the better kunoichi and win Sasuke's heart." she smiled carefree and with confidence.

"I suppose you're right, I might be overthinking things." She admitted as a smile grew on her face. The two summoned their respective weapons and began sparring with one another, vowing to grow strong so they can save the people depending on them.

[Ixon and Xakuras reached Rank C!]

"Hello Xion." Turanox greeted calmly as the hooded girl merely stayed silent and nodded her head politely in return. "I know you're new to all of this, but try speaking time to time when socializing. It will help both you and the Organization properly work together for we will have to go separate ways on missions in order to achieve the goal of regaining our hearts. Teamwork is vital and proper communication is vital for both you and your comrades." he gently lectured her.

"...I understand, sir." she replied quietly. "Well...that's a start at least. We'll talk again soon so please practice talking with others in the free times." Turanox noted with a nod. As he left, Xion looked to her hand and summoned something, only for it to disappear just as quick. She had no idea why, but that weapon felt...familiar to her.

"Hey Xion! Mind giving me a hand here!" Felicia called out as she was carrying too much clean laundry to be a good thing. "On my way!" Xion answered as she quickly rushed over, hoping to save the laundry from another of Felicia's disaster moments.

[Turanox and Xion reached Rank C!]

Corrin sat in the middle of her room, dragonstone floating over her palm as she tried to meditate like how Turanox instructed her to do. It was uncomfortable at first, but she got used to it as she began her latest attempt of communing with her dragon other.

"I see you've been working hard as usual." Turanox mused from right beside her as the princess' concentration broke as she panicked and fell to her side in shock. "T-Turanox?! How did-!"

"Secret." he told her as she frowned and puffed the side of her cheek in annoyance. It made Turanox chuckle a little. "So, how is the bonding going along?" he asked as Corrin had a smile on her face. "It's been well, me and my other self-have been working on setting rules for one another so we can draw out our full potential like you have. You're quite a teacher." she told him.

"...I really doubt I'd do well as a teacher somehow. Even Hinata who's usually shy can get unruly kids to listen. I scare them into obedience just by walking in the room." Turanox grunted with annoyance. He remembered just when he walked in the cafeteria the other day, Princess Sakura was shaking, Hana was being overprotective, Silas eying him cautiously and Felicia tripping and spilling hot tea over the Nobody. His aura was responsible for that and he had no control over that no matter what he did.

At least Elise was nice enough to get him a towel just in time.

"Hehe, you're just like Gunter without the old age lines he often says." she giggled as Turanox grumbled under his breath. "...Will you leave after the war?" she asked suddenly, getting the Nobody's attention. "Yes. For I'm on a mission and I've been side-tracked for quite a while and we are drawing closer to ending this conflict." he answered honestly as Corrin had a sad expression on her face.

"I'll miss you." she told him as he sighed. "Corrin this won't be a 'goodbye', it's going to be 'see you next time' kind of thing." he reassured him. Corrin looked at him directly in the eyes and saw honesty. Quickly before he could blink, she gave him a peck on the lips which he did not expect at all. "I'll hold you to that promise." she smiled with red cheeks.

Turanox couldn't help but feel his own cheeks turn red as well with this new feeling in his chest. He did not see this coming.

[Corrin and Turanox reached Rank B!]

*Tokiko Uzumaki*

"You think she's alright?"

"Hey, she's waking up!"

Tokiko slowly sat up and had a groggy expression on her face as she was drooling on the side. Wiping it away she began to regain her senses and realized she wasn't home. Instinct kicked in as she flipped a few yards back and was about to pull out her kunai in self-defense. "Woah! Woah! Woah! Calm down little girl! We're not here to hurt you!" one of them shouted, revealing to be a girl. They were wearing civilian clothing, a school uniform although...

"How do they get so big?" Tokiko thought as she noticed how...nicely stacked they were. "Where am I?" she demanded as one spoke up, her tone that of a typical class representative. "You are in Hanzo Academy, we found you outside unconscious." the pink haired one explained as Tokiko was trying to recall what happened.

Sasuke and Hinata with key weapons, a giant shadow monster, her brother then...!

"Have you seen my brother?" she asked, looking around in desperate hope of him being nearby as one of them, the brunette of the group shook her head. "I'm sorry, we only found you. Do you have a phone to contact him or your parents?"

"...Phone? What's that?" Tokiko thought to herself but decided to pretend. "I...I don't have one." she admitted honestly while gripping her arm with a troubled expression. She decided to act like a lost girl, make them lower their guard and then figure out where she was. Oh only if she knew where she was, because things are going to burst into chaos quite soon.
