Le wild sudden update after a few years. Read bottom for more info.


In a space with no room, in a place that was never built, meets the guild that doesn't exist.


Four kids stood in a room with several lights of different colors, glowing fruits attached to branches on the walls.

Those kids were the disciples of the 6 paths and members of the special unregistered guild created by Nagato. They weren't registered to any nations and had no affiliations, either to the 'light' guilds or the 'dark' guilds. They took all sorts of missions, missions to exterminate monsters, missions to annihilate dark guilds and missions that nobody else wanted to do.

Due to not being registered at the council they were classified as a 'dark guild', the dark guild that destroys other dark guilds.

They were rumored to all be extremely powerful mages that never failed a mission no matter how difficult, they were known for destroying other guilds and they were known for being mysterious. Nobody knew where to find them, how to contact them, their names or anything else, they were ghosts that appeared and did the mission, oftenly not taking a reward.

Some doubted they even existed.

They were the Hidden Village.

There was a solemn air in the guild meeting room, nobody talked.

Their mentors had brought them together and told them to wait for news and left. There was nothing unusual about that in itself, they usually left them behind at the guild base whenever they went out for difficult missions, but this time it felt different.

For starters they were all brought together at once, that in itself felt strange, they had gathered before for birthdays but never outside of one. And also, their farewells, although it was just like any other time, rather than a 'see you soon' felt more like a proper 'goodbye'.

"So… are we just going to stay like this until they come back?" One child spoke up, breaking the silence. The only boy in the room, Zancrow, the disciple of Nagato and Gaara.

"Juvia doesn't feel like talking…"

"Me too, but we can't just stay like this."

"Then what do you think we should do?" A white haired girl asked, joining the conversation.

"I don't know, Ikaruga. What were you doing before we came here? Me and the masters had just finished a mission of destroying a small dark guild. I even got to beat a few up."

"We were investigating this thing called Tower of Heaven that has appeared in Fiore."

"Oh what is that?"

"I don't know much," Ikaruga frowned.

"It is a tower made by slaves and bad people to cast an ancient magic spell or something of the sorts," another girl chimed in. "She wasn't paying attention when Master Jiraiya was explaining."

"Minerva! That was because I was distracted practicing this control exercise that Master Neji taught me."

"Right, sure you were."

The two disciples of Neji and Jiraiya glared at one another.

"What about you, Juvia?" Zancrow turned towards the blue haired girl. "What were you and master Kakashi and Gai doing?"

"... Juvia was playing with teru-kun while master Gai and Kakashi were beating up wyverns."

"Oh then maybe our masters grouped together to do something about this tower. What do you guys think they could be doing?"

"Juvia thinks masters went to see Mr. Whiskers."

Zancrow and Ikaruga both blinked.

"Mr. Whiskers? Who is that?" Ikaruga asked.

"Yeah who is he?"

"Oh right, you two haven't met him yet." Minerva furrowed her brow in thought. "I'm not sure who he is, but the masters all seemed to obey him like he is the boss."

"The boss? With a name like that? You're joking right?"

"His name isn't Mr. Whiskers, Zancrow. That's just what Juvia calls him."

"Then what is his name, and why does she call him that?"

"His name is Naruto, she calls him that because he has whiskers. He also has very sharp horns, blank white eyes and a third eye on his forehead. He is very strange."

"Juvia doesn't think Mr. Whiskers is strange... Juvia thinks Mr. Whiskers is nice."


(Meanwhile)


Ultear's first birthday back with the family was a success, a few of Ur's friends came by bringing their sons and daughters and they had a wonderful celebration. At first people were surprised with Naruto's appearance and Ultear calling him dad, but everyone went along with it.

After the birthday, everything normalized in the household. Ultear and Lyon both studied magic with Ur, occasionally studying the mysterious book that Naruto was given by the duke.

And just like that 2 years passed peacefully. Naruto and Ur lived the life of a happily married couple, teaching the kids, making love, studying, enjoying life.

Only occasionally Naruto left to do business somewhere, such as now.

Ur, Ultear and Lyon are walking down a ruined street: everything has either been destroyed or lit aflame and there are even several corpses around. Ultear and Lyon were completely shocked with the destruction, while Ur found herself having trouble staying calm. She had seen similar scenes very few times in all her life, of which had a common denominator…

'Deliora,' She thought with a frown, 'Where are you, Naruto...'

It has been a few days since she had last seen him. He had left to take care of something involving the creatures that he had created and somebody sealed inside him. He had come clean a year back about what he had done after the two had stumbled across the works of Jiraiya in a store.

She'd been mad at first, Jiraiya had opened the doors to erotic novels, a taboo among most authors, and it wasn't the type of thing that one kept a secret from their counterpart, her anger gradually subsided through the course of that day.

In his absence Deliora struck again.

The demon of destruction, whenever and wherever it appeared it left a trail of fire and chaos in its wake. It was titanic in size and nearly impossible to miss, yet somehow it came and went then disappeared until it appeared elsewhere in another city.

After a few years of inactivity it had now destroyed it's second city within 2 weeks.

''Woah...'' Lyon gasped as he looked around in shock, ''What happened here?''

''Are all these people... Dead?'' Ultear asked, seeing the various burned corpses.

''Don't look at them,'' Ur grabbed both of their hands and prepared to turn around, ''We should head back, and try the other route.''

Ultear protested and tried to look anyway, ''But mom, there can be somebody in need, we can help!''

''No! We will go around through the forest to the next nearest village for supplies,'' Ur started to drag the two with her.

Coincidentally, the the city it had destroyed this time was the one Ur and the re

''Help... Me...''


(Meanwhile...)


On a grassy plateau, there are several cloaked people standing, holding hands and making a circle around a certain white-haired individual, Naruto. He is floating cross-legged with his ever present Truth-Seeking Balls floating above him, the cloaked people are none other than his paths: Nagato, Gaara, Neji, Jiraiya, Gai and Kakashi.

They each have their eyes closed in concentration for the time has finally come for him to pay his promise.

''You all know the risks and what may happen, are you all ready to proceed?'' Naruto asked and they all opened their eyes to glance between themselves.

Had they been asked that question two years back, none of them would hesitate, but so much had happened. They had been created for this purpose, it was the reason for their existence, they are creatures made of chakra and magic, with 'artificial' memories and emotions being implanted inside them. None of what they had from before their creation felt completely 'real', it all felt abstract, like a movie or a painting on the wall.

But the things that they had come to experience after weren't.

Over the course of the last two years, they each got to experience things first hand; they made friends and enemies, they felt love and hate, and they even made disciples. They weren't just memories of people, they had people that cared for them, and they cared for them back.

They stayed in silence, communicating among themselves mentally to reach a common consensus, and after a few minutes of silence, Nagato spoke, ''This is what we were made for. We've always known that the time was coming, we will do what we must, no matter the cost.''

''Very well,'' Naruto nodded and closed his eyes, ''But before we start, share with your creator a little of what you've learned. Tell me Gaara, have you found out what love is? That thing tattooed in your forehead."

Gaara blinked, "Love?"

"Yes, tell me what you think about it, do you understand it?'' Naruto's pale eyes softened and he smiled.

Gaara closed his eyes for a few seconds, before opening them and looking into Naruto's eyes. ''It is complicated, at first I thought I did from when Jiraiya explained it to me, but now I'm not sure.''

"What has you confused?'' Naruto asked, having an idea of what could have been that Jiraiya explained to him.

"I believed that love was felt only between men and women, during intercourse, but now I'm not quite sure.'' Gaara shook his head and looked at the horizon. "Now that I have disciples, I've found myself thinking about what will be of them when I'm gone, if they will grow to be strong, if they will survive and live happy lives. I'm constantly thinking about their safety and future and the mere thought of them being harmed makes my blood boil, is this not love too, creator?''

''Why of course it is. Love comes in all shapes and forms, the love that one feels for their mate is just one type. There is also what one feels for their children, their friends and even their dog.'' Naruto rubbed his chin. "Then there is this twisted form that is a mixture of hatred and sexual pleasure, but that isn't something we should talk about. What about the rest of you, have you learned anything?''

They glanced between one another and Nagato took a step forward. "We've learned many things, so many that we cannot share them all. Although you should know them already, creator, for you can see through our eyes and know what we know.''

"Indeed I can, but just because I can, doesn't mean I do that. I like to believe that you guys will do what's best. After all, if I cannot trust the product of my own memories and energy, then who else can I trust?'' Naruto asked them, and Nagato took a step back, re-aligning the circle. "Now, is there anything you'd like to tell me before we start?''

"Yes there is, creator.'' Neji spoke and Naruto tilted his head to him, a habit that he had kept, it made him feel 'normal'. ''We were wondering about our disciples. Like you asked, we have each gotten disciples that we've been training, but we aren't sure if they are ready for the world. Will you look after them if we perish?''

"Of course, but hopefully it won't come to that. You all should know about the specific conditions for you to act, don't do anything if not.'' Naruto smiled. "I'll be going now, it's time to check her progress.''


(With Naruto)
(Sometime later)


Inside a blank room, Naruto watched as Kaguya added chocolate fudge to the cake then carefully placed strawberries on top.

Two years of tutoring and it all came down to this moment, to baking this cake.

It was a fun time. Their relationship improved greatly, recipe by recipe they worked their way up the ladder and improved her cooking skills while conversing.

"So, have you thought about what your wish will be?"

"I've thought long and hard and have come to a decision."

"Oh have you? I thought it'd be an easy decision for you to make, what was it?"

"You will find out soon enough." She placed the cake down.

"Going to be like that then? Okay." Naruto smiled and looked at the cake placed in front of him. "We have to wait for it to cool off to properly taste it, but so far it looks and smells delicious, good job. How does it feel to finally be done?"

Kaguya ignored his praise.

"Learning to cook was more difficult than I thought, but it still feels simple. Will you really grant my wish unconditionally?"

"It's the agreement. I never go back on my word."

"Even if my wish is for you to kill yourself and return my power?"

"Sure. I've lived a long life, death doesn't feel so bad."

"Then what about that woman and her children? Would you not feel anything about leaving them behind?"

"I will, yes, the thought of leaving them does hurt my heart, and the thought of the sadness that they will go through does as well, but if it is what has to happen, then so be it. Ultimately they have each other so I think they will be fine, and that is enough for me"

"Is that so…?"

"Yep." Naruto nodded.

"Very well then, let us wait for the cake to cool itself."

No further words were exchanged between the two, they waited in silence staring at the cake in between them and watching it cool down. Either of them could use some technique to do it instantly, but none were in a hurry.

Then the promised time came, Kaguya cut two slices and served him and herself one each.

"The time has come. Lets see how it tastes."

They both took a spoonful of their slices and slowly ate it together.

"Mmm, it is even better than I thought it would be." Naruto said, taking another spoonful.

"I agree." Kaguya discarded the spoon and picked up the cake with her hand.

Naruto chuckled.

"Some things never change…" He watched her eat, dirtying the corner of her mouth with chocolate. Reaching out to her, he wiped the chocolate out of her mouth with a napkin he created on the spot. "There you go, you passed."

"I passed…?"

"Yep, a perfect cake, congratulations. What is your wish?"

"My wish…" Kaguya placed the cake down.

"Yep, you can ask for any one thing you desire and so long as I can do it, it will be done."

"My desire…" She repeated and looked back up to him, meeting his own nearly blank eyes. "I desire..."


(With Ur)


Ur Milkovich, one of the strongest mages of the current era and a candidate to the title of Wizard Saint. She was many things, a mother, a lover, an ex, but good? If someone asked her that then she would question it herself.

What made a person 'good', was it just the opposite of evil or perhaps more? Could a person even be 100% good all the time?

Doubtful, or it would be difficult for them to survive because to be good is to be altruistic even at self cost.

They had come to find supplies and instead ended up helping the survivors of Deliora's rampage by rescuing those stuck in debris and stabilizing their condition with first aid treatment.

The last survivor they found was a boy, unconscious among the wreckage.

A house in shambles, no survivors in it except the boy.

She couldn't just leave him there, once he woke up he'd be alone in a city in shambles. Ur figured that the least she could do was help him find a living relative.

So they took him home, as for the supplies, she figured they would be okay for a few more days, more if they managed to hunt something or if Naruto returned soon.

Fortunately he returned sooner than they expected… and with a guest.

Returning back to their small wooden house, they found Naruto waiting for them outside alongside a woman that looked so much like him that one could assume them to be twins.

She had the same white eyes, white hair and pale skin, their robes were of the same scheme, they both had horns and a third eye. The only difference between them was their height, her rather generous breasts and the lack of whiskers.

Ur glanced between the two repeatedly.

"Hello Ur, right on time we've just returned."

"Um.. yeah, Naruto who is she?"

"This is Kaguya, she is the goddess sealed in me. Kaguya you should already know them but they are Ur, Ultear, Lyon and… that's a new face. Who's the boy?" Naruto pointed towards the unconscious boy in Ur's back.

"I don't know either. We were heading to buy some supplies but the city had already been destroyed by Deliora. We found him in a wrecked house, there were no other survivors in it with him."

"Deliora huh… I'll hunt it down later, where did it appear this time? Um it's cold out here, let's get in and talk inside." Naruto opened the door and gestured for them to enter.

Kaguya who was next to him was the first, then Ur, Ultear and Lyon.

"This time it appeared in the town of Rosewood."

"So it's heading East, I'll intercept it later, lay the boy here, I'll give him a check-up."

Ur nodded and placed the unconscious child on the couch. Naruto placed his hands over him and began healing his wounds.

"So… Naruto. What is she doing here again?"

"Technically she's always been here, she's just outside now…"

"We had an agreement." Kaguya interrupted, getting in between the two. "I think we have a lot to discuss. Let us talk in the room while he tends to the child?"

"If you think so then let's go." Ur headed turned and headed towards their room. "We'll be right back."

As soon as they both entered, Kaguya placed a thin barrier blocking Naruto's view from inside.

'Oh boy, I can smell trouble brewing. Still with her wish I doubt she will do anything to Ur in there, may as well just let them sort things out and pray for the best.'

"Hey you kids hungry?" Naruto asked Lyon and Ultear who were watching and waiting by the side.

They both nodded.

"Okay, I'll prepare something for us to eat."

He created a clone and it went to the kitchen.


(Meanwhile with Kaguya)


From the start their relationship had always been complicated. She was the grandmother of his reincarnation, his mortal enemy and her creation was the reason behind 9/10 major conflicts in history after her.

After being defeated and sealed inside him, she had decided to become silent, contemplate life and the reason for both of her defeats.

He ignored her and everything worked out well.

Throughout the years in between her time of meditation and introspection she would watch him silently. She watched everything he accomplished, big events like the birth of his son and daughter to small events like them finally saying 'papa' for the first time.

And as time passed something changed, one day out of the blue he decided to stop ignoring her and tried to make contact. A sudden and also frightening change to her that had grown accustomed to the balance between them.

Her reaction, none, she kept on ignoring him, thinking that if she did then he would give up and they would return to the quiet balance.

It wasn't that she didn't want to talk and interact with him, but that change was frightening and so was he.

He was terrifying and she knew that more than any other.

After sealing her inside him he had moved on to another way of handling enemies, absorbing all of their chakra and then destroying them completely.

And enemy after enemy he became stronger and stronger.

Be it invaders from other continents, main branch Otsutsuki or even elders he trampled his way to the top eventually slaughtering her entire clan, all the while still keeping up the image of an aging man living in a small wooden house with his elderly wife.

And then on a warm and peaceful evening his wife passed away, seated on a rocking chair staring at the birds in the garden.

And along with her something inside him had died as well, it was like he was released from his chains.

He tore open the fabric of space and together they left for another place, somewhere far away where nobody from his old home would ever reach.

A new start, a new life.

Once again he reached out to her, this time tempting her with a delicious treat that she had seen him eat before.

Eating was one of the innocent pleasures of life and inside him she could only watch him have it outside. She tried to make it herself but it never came out the way she wanted it to and after three tries she gave up.

It was as if he knew her cravings.

She gave in, he made an offer. To teach her how to cook and when she completed the recipe he would grant her a wish, any wish including her freedom.

Such a simple task and she could be free.

And like that 2 years passed between improving her cooking with him and backseating his new life with Ur… watching them as they went by their life, teaching the children, studying, making love like rabbits...

Watching their happiness felt like torture. She had already spent an entire lifetime watching him be happy with his wife, on track to spending yet another lifetime watching them share the same bed.

It was frustrating. Her life with her lover wasn't remotely similar, once a week if lucky and only for a short while, no passion, no fire, just bland copulation for the sake of reproduction.

Why couldn't she have that? She was beautiful, powerful, intelligent and they were both immortals, she certainly had more in common with him than the mortal Ur, so why not her?

Why not?

And just like that an idea came, she'd made her wish, her wish for them to be together… as for the mortal Ur? Getting rid of her would bring his hatred, so that was out of the table… but did she need to get rid of her?

"So, what is it that you want to talk with me about?" Ur asked as they entered the bedroom.

"I think it's best we set some things straight."

Ur raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms.

"Is that so, like what?"

"Him, from now on he is mine."

"Pardon?"

"You heard what I said. From now he is mine." Kaguya repeated with confidence.

"What? No what are you talking about? We are doing amazing… he wouldn't just do that to me."

"I know very well how you two are doing, but it has been decided, there is nothing you can do about it. He said he would grant me one unconditional wish, and I wished for us to be together in the outside world… and he never fails his promises."

Kaguya approached Ur.

"What, no. He wouldn't do that."

"But he did. It is his kind nature. The same kindness that accepted with open arms a daughter that wasn't his, also gave mercy to me." Kaguya cupped Ur's chin, "there is no point in being angry at him, you yourself took advantage of that kindness, so why can't I? He probably never expected me to ask such a thing. He probably thought I would ask to take his chakra or to be set free."

Ur glared at Kaguya, unable to break free from her grasp and being pushed into the wall.

"I'm doing you a favor, you're a mortal, he has already gone through one lifetime of watching his love slowly wither, he should be with someone like him, an immortal that will stay by his side as everything around him decays and disappears..."

Kaguya's grasp softened and her lips curled upwards.

"But don't worry, I won't just chase you away. He likes you too much and would be upset if I did that, so instead I will allow you two to stay together, and him to play the role of that child's father."

"but then in that case you…?"

"I will be here of course, with both of you."

"so the three of us will…"

"That's right, unless you don't want to, then you can reject and banish him. But I know you won't do that, after all you belong to him." Kaguya licked her left index finger and trailed it down Ur's stomach. "I know you. I've been watching you two do it for the last 2 years. I. Know. Everything."

Kaguya slipped her left hand inside Ur's pants while simultaneously pressing her body against hers.

"I know how your body craves for him every night and most importantly I know all of your sweet spots… and if you are his, then that also means you are mine… "

"Ahn~"


It's me, VT here. My friend KS retired from writing after his recovery, and left me his account. I know it's been a while, honestly too long and I get it that most lost interest in this story and that's fine, I stayed too long away and that's my fault.

From time to time I got messages about this story and other ones, and it always hammered in my mind to come back and write, but every time I tried I just couldn't get anywhere, or something irl happened until recently something sorta 'clicked' not just in here but on my OG story too, writing in general just sorta became easier, I started writing 3-5k words a day for 1-2 chapters, and so I wondered if I could write this as fast too? Which as it turned out, I can't, not that fast at least but still I can write. So I went through all the previous chapters, edited them all (they should be edited now - note I am still a crappy editor) all the previous notes and conversations I ever had on this and decided to just write this in my free time when I'm not writing my OG story, for myself.

This story in particular was something I really loved brainstorming with KS, we would talk about it for hours and hours, making plans, and it never really got into the best parts, and I really want to get to those parts. And I want to get there, for the people that requested me to, but mostly for myself, so if you new here then welcome, if you a veteran that just stumbled onto this update then welcome back.
