Chapter 2

In a desert far away from Konoha, night-time

I think I hit him a bit too hard, thought Simon looking at the sleeping form of Naruto, he has been sleeping all day long, enough of this, its time to wake him up.

With that he walked up to him. They were now staying in a cave Simon found in the desert.

"Oi, Naruto time to wake up" he said shaking Naruto.

"Heeh… Ramen, Sakura-chan, ramen, Sakura" mumbled Naruto in his sleep.

That is the first thing he has to stop, his obsession over Sakura and ramen, Simon thought "Hey! Wake up Naruto we don't have much time, wake up" at that he send a pulse of his power through Naruto which jolted him awake.

"OUCH! What who are you? Why are you glowing? What are you doing? Where am I?" Naruto spewed out all the thoughts running through his head

"I'll answer all your questions" Simon said holding up a glowing finger "but first, we need some time"

With that he touched Naruto's forehead and both of them fell down unconscious.

Inside Simon's mind

Both of them were laying down as in the real world in Simon's mind. All around them was an endless white background.

"Hey! Where am I?" Naruto exclaimed "What do you want? Nothing you do makes sense!"

Yeah, and you are 206th on the- I don't know what Amen does list, thought Simon with a sad face "Now that we are here we have all the time and I will answer your questions in the reverse order"

"First of all I want to help you. Onto the second question, you are at a place called a mindscape, you as a jinchuuriki will learn how to access it later on, this one's mine" said Simon and continued "But my one is special, I upgraded my mindscape and made it up to a level where 3 days here is equivalent to 3 seconds in real time, tell me tell me isn't that cool? Huh?"

"Oh glow rod you know what, YOU ARE CRAZY!" screamed Naruto trying to free himself from the strange boy's grip.

"Sorry, I got a bit excited" Simon said while releasing Naruto from his grip.

"A bit excited? Yeah right. Now tell why in the name of Sandaime's big nose am I here?"

"Sandaime has a big nose? I didn't know that."

"Oh yeah, his nose is as big as a cow, I think its even larger than Iruka sens- Hey wait a minute don't distract me tell me why am I here?"

"Oh right, back to my explanation, hm let me see… Next one, well you have to reword it as Where was I?, the answer to that is a desert cave in Suna"

"WhatT? How did I reach here?" Naruto stared confused at Simon

"What can I say? I'm AWESOME!" said Simon with a nice guy pose.

Naruto sighs, why do I get feeling that I am going to see more of that other than from him?

(Somewhere in Konoha, two people sneezed twice.

Might Guy said "WOW another candidate for my youthfulness. Let his fires of youth burn brightly!"

And he started running around like a mad man)

"Ok, that is for another time. To continue my answers, the answer to the question before that is now meaningless"

Naruto frowned in exasperation, am I ever going to get a proper explanation from this guy?

"To the question before that however, I will give all the answers you need."

Then the whiteness around them rose into high and big rectangular boxes made from earth. They were standing on something that looked like a black river. All around were weird things, people wearing strange clothes, many moving boxes-

BONG

BONG

"Ahh!" Naruto jumped out of the way of a very big box.

There was only one thing familiar, a big sun in the sky.

"Wow" said Naruto in awe, where am I?

Meanwhile in Amegakure

Samael is with Nagato, who was sitting on the floor crying.

"It is all my fault, I killed Yahiko", Nagato was shaking uncontrollably "I will kill that Hanzou. I will avenge Yahiko, hahaha" he laughed like a maniac, madness creeping into eyes with every passing moment.

"You fool! there is no way you can defeat Hanzou, let alone kill, not with your level of power"

"What?!", snapped Nagato "What are you saying? Are you saying I should let him go for what he did? If so you and I are enemies from now on." Nagato raised his killing intent

Samael shrugged it off as it were a fly, then emitted his own power, the power of something so rotten and unclean, it was so powerful that Nagato started hyperventilating, perhaps I should tone it down a bit in this dimension people here are so fragile, Samael sighs, why was I interested in this dimension in the first place?, then he remembered Naruto, oh yes- him. I am so wanting to kill him right now, but rules are rules, I should wait for at least three years.

"Oi Nagato wake up" and Samael kicked him.

Nagato woke up with a start "What I am saying is that Hanzou had defeated your Sensei, and his more powerful friends single-handedly so yes you stand no chance" Samael continued

"My advice to you is that you train and think about my offer and… about Yahiko's dream"

Nagato looked up surprised and said "What do you know about his dream"

"Enough about the dream. Even though his dream is good one, his method of making it a reality was naïve. So hear me out, true peace can be achieved through understanding others, yes, but for that the one thing you should understand the most is pain."

"Pain?"

"Yes, pain. Pain is what fuels, what drives, and forces you to realise the truth. "

"What truth?"

"The truth that peace cannot be achieved in reality" Samael was having fun spouting bullshit to the kid.

"Huh?" Nagato looked at Samael like a kid wanting a candy.

"Yes, but if you truly want to achieve peace….." Samael said with a thinking pose.

"Tell me about it" Nagato yearned to hear his answer

"Make yourself a God. With those eyes, it is possible. With that power make everyone accept peace"

"A God?" Nagato asked himself "Yes I will become God, I will bring peace through pain.", his eyes flashed in determination.

In Simon's mind

"This is a stimulation of the place I come from" said Simon "there are many nations in our place, or differently, continents"

"Their names are Asia, Africa...

Well… You know the rest about our homes.
