"Mother, I would like to make a request." Diana said as she landed on the island, walking closer she hugged her mother
"You wish to know who the guardian, is it not?" Hippolyta said in a regal tone
"How? Do you know what it is?"
"I do not know but Mistress Gaea has spoken to me and told me that she is not willing to share his identity but know that the Guardian cares for the world and is accepted by the Mistress." Hippolyta said as she looked at her daughter
'I really wish to tell you but then he would be angry. Mistress has commanded to bring him happiness but I am truly lost.'
"Thank you mother, it's the thought that counts." Diana replied with a smile, she was happy to see her mother after so long and outside had been hectic the last year
"Stay the night as I wish to converse with you about something important." Hippolyta said as she looked at her daughter, she would have been fine with trying to contact with the guardian but she would displease him if she led others to his place
"As you wish, I also want to spend some time here now that I have come back after so long."
"Good, we will wait in our chamber so handle the man." Her mother said as she looked at Batman and walked away with her hunters
"So, I figure she was not willing to share." Batman muttered in a calm tone as he saw Diana walk back to his side
"Yes, it seems that he is more important to the world than we had assumed. He might be the chosen of Gaia and continuing this might anger her, do you still wish to continue?" Diana questioned, she was worried that her friend might do something careless again as she seemed to forget about his safety at some occasions
"I will be careful; I don't think she will be angry as I don't have any wrong intentions for the guardian. I just wish to meet him."
"What will you do when you meet him? Isn't it to cage him or her away as he/she has killed on a large scale?" Diana said as she thought that was quite evident
"I can't deny that but maybe we can come to a compromise. I just don't wish for him to continue, so if he is willing to back down and not increase his sphere of influence than I don't mind the guardian being free." Batman replied
"That is surprising; I didn't think you would say that." Diana was astonished
"Maybe living in the light has affected my mind a bit, the atmosphere in Gotham is really wonderful so I might have mellowed down a bit and I do understand that he killed only the worse of the worse."
"But you will still be in conflict with the guardian as I don't really see a reason why he would stop or do you not mind the killings of anyone in Gotham."
"That is part of it; he should stop and just constrain them for the authorities. If he can kill then he should be able to trap them." Batman said as he had thought about the powers of his target, always mysterious but they revolved around nature
"You have taken up something really troublesome but I will try to help as much I can." Diana said as she hugged him
"Thank you, enjoy your time." Batman muttered in a calm tone as he separated from her and entered his jet, flying away into the horizon
'I hope this is not something beyond our levels or devolves into something worse than now.' Diana thought as she walked towards her mother's place, she was not foreign to situations becoming worse because of their actions
Life was a beautiful thing and I lived a very privileged life.
My Daddy was the strongest being in the world; he was the bravest and kindest person. I looked up to him from the start; I was attached to his golden glow that drew me in like moth to a flame.
My mother was the most beautiful person I had seen. She was kind and gentle. She was the love of my father's life and she loved father dearly.
We were a happy family the four of us, the youngest being my little brother Boruto. I was happy and always believed that it will continue, the expectations put on me were great but I intended to strive toward being strong as my Daddy.
But then it all came crashing down, on the day I had turned thirteen and the chuunin exam was being held. Three Otsutsuki invaded and Daddy was ready for them so he pushed them through a portal of his creation and they ended up in his zone.
I was already Jounin at that time and was sitting by Daddy's side. I wished to follow Daddy and see him in action, this was probably the worst decision I made and one that destroyed everything.
Uncle Sasuke was very confident in Daddy's power so he along with Toneri allowed me to follow them into the battle zone. Uncle Sasuke joined the battle while Toneri protected me from the affects of the battle.
I was lost in the wonderful scene, it was beyond any dream I could have ever seen and it was beautiful. Daddy shone like the sun, his power was overwhelming like never before and he even called out to me in the midst of battle as he enjoyed the rush.
I cheered but then the three became one and the battle became a bit harsher, Uncle Sasuke took some damage so he had to sit it out and Daddy fought alone. Daddy had never stopped training since the war and I had seen it myself.
Daddy was winning and was about to finish the battle but then it happened, the enemy decided to go with an explosion which broke the dimensional barriers and took down everything. It was too strong and Daddy could have chosen to take it in but he chose me, he chose me over everything else.
I was happy, I was happy that he loved me over everything else but it broke him. It broke him from the man he sued to be, his smile was hollow and his heart cried out in pain. I was the only reason he lived and nothing else, and I knew I was to blame but he didn't blame me and always consoled me from the pain I felt.
Slowly I don't when but I completely forget the feeling and all that was left was love for Daddy. I wished to see him happy and I trained harder as he pushed me through the harshest training ever possible. It pained him but he always looked at me with those eyes filled with love and everything was right in my world.
The stronger I got, the more I could understand what Daddy felt and it hurt me. It was too intense; he wished to die every second of his life.
I was angry as I believed all those expressions had been faked. I cried and Daddy held me in his arms to console, he cried for the second time since that day and he promised to never leave my side.
I was filled with happiness and it never went away as Daddy started to become better and I enjoyed our time together. People would say my love was unhealthy; I was too attached to Daddy but who else would be worth of my attention.
I was the cause of the fall then I shall never leave his side as we are meant to be together.
"Isn't that right Daddy?" Himawari muttered in a lovely tone as she kissed the sleeping Naruto, she knew when he was asleep. He would sleep after a while when she was in his embrace and wouldn't react unless he felt something dangerous.
'I hope Daddy can remember that day without the pain, it was a special day for me. It was the best day of my life and I wish Daddy can understand a bit more.' Himawari thought as she touched his face and looked at him with adoration, her soul was blackened with dark emotion but she didn't care as long as she was accepted.
