"Elder sister!"
"Elder sister!"
Oh, what now, Temari thought.
"Please, let me pick your brain," Kankuro said. He looked troubled.
"Calm down," Temari said. "What is it."
"You see..."
"Wait a minute!" Gaara pushed him out of the way. "Let me discuss something with you first," he begged Temari.
Temari scoffed. "You're the Kazekage now. Make your own decisions."
"But, I just need your opinion on something!"
"Me too," Kankuro shouted, shoving his younger brother aside. "Please, elder sister!"
Temari just laughed. "My little brothers are so hopeless."
(!)
What Temari didn't know was that it wasn't real. She wasn't back at Sunagakure, and her brothers weren't asking for her advice. She, along with her siblings and the rest of the world, were tethered to the God Tree, experiencing illusions based off of their own personal desires. And watching them all was the soon-to-be ruler of the world, Kaguya Otsutsuki.
Kaguya was amused with this woman's dream. Wanting her brothers to rely on her and ask for her opinion more, unaware that she will be the one who will rely on Kaguya once the transformation begins.
(!)
The first thing to go were Temari's clothes. They disintegrated as they were not part of her natural body.
(!)
As the tree absorbed her chakra, her mind was going too. Her self, her knowledge of all her chakra, it was all disappearing. But she would not need them as the next phase began.
(!)
Temari's slowly began to shrivel up as more of her chakra was depleted along with her personality. The Suna kunoichi began to hear a woman's voice, telling her not to worry. She will take care of her bothers, along with the rest of the world like they were her own children. Temari was pleased with this.
(!)
Eventually, what was left of Temari was nothing more than a mummified husk, her beige hair thinned, becoming lighter, her skin pasty white and shriveled like uncared for clothing and stretching over to outline the bones, and her breasts sagged like a pair of empty burlap sacks. However, the body was kept alive and preserved in order for the next stage to begin.
(!)
Over the course of months, the body slowly grew back its muscles, the hair turned a leaf green color, the skin turned chalk white with jagged lines and the eyes turned from black to a sickly yellow.
(!)
The cocoon containing Temari eventually unwound and she landed onto the ground. But it was not Temari anymore. It was White Zetsu, one in over millions. By her side were Gaara and Kankuro, also turned White Zetsu. And they would all have to be ready for when the interlopers from Kaguya's clan come to steal her chakra from her.
Temari would no longer have to worry about her brothers needs anymore. Now that they were all White Zetsu, Kaguya will take that role for her. And she had to admit it, it was better to be White Zetsu than Temari.
