"Review" Divine talking

Naruto sighed. He really, really didn't want to face her now. Just thinking about it made him sigh again as he closed his eyes and pushed open the white dabble doors lined with gold.

White light flashed as he entered the room. What awaited him was a consul of people dressed in ancient clothing, sitting on a white throne in the middle of the universe Once he entered, every eye looked down at him as he made his way towards the middle of the room.

He stopped in front of the second seated figure.

"Welcome back, God of Kitsunes," said the little dark haired boy in ancient blue, Chinese qipao, his smile never once leaving his face.

Naruto winched. Damn, he was angry with him.

"Sun God," Naruto replied, not meeting the older man's eyes. "… I'm sorry."

"What for?" asked the boy.

"For not being able to protect her…"

"…" The 11-year-old boy sighed before tuning away. "It already happened. There's nothing we could do about this loss… another princess dead… another goddess gone…"

The atmosphere became tensed as everyone looked over to one of the empty thrones in the room, and were remembered of their lost queen, the only memeber to have ever left them...

"… It's not to late," a little girl's voice chopped it.

All eyes turned to the little 7 year-old girl in a red Chinese hanfu as she continued to stare longingly at the throne.

"Karin," Naruto whispered, his face sad as he stared at her, heartbroken from the way she looked and knowing that he was part of the reason why she felt so hurt and hollow inside.

Karin looked at him, her sea blue eyes fixed on his sky blue ones. "It's not to late," she repeated. "And you know it."

"…" Naruto looked down.

"I was there when you lost her Naruto," Karin continued. "And I'm not made at you, Naru-chan. I was able to save a part of her soul existence and has been keeping her with me as I waited for you to return... And Mother-… Mother has also lean a hand…"

Naruto looked up at her. "But Karin-chan-"

"I know the risk, onii-chan! I don't need you to remind me!" Karin shouted out. "Do you want her back or not?"

"… Of course I do… she's my everything."

"Then man up and use it, you idiot!" Karin tossed him a gold pocket watch.

Naruto caught it and his eyes grew wide.

"I swear," she huffed. "I can't believe you were called a child prodigy and yet you can't even think about this."

"… Can I really?" Naruto looked up.

"It's yours, isn't it?" Karin questioned. "You created it. now you decide what you want to do with it. I swear I'm surrounded by a bunch of unless idiots sometimes."

Everyone either chuckled or giggled at her remark while some showed a fake hurt face at her childish comment.

Naruto smiled. "Then, well you guys help me?"

"Aren't we family?" Karin asked.

Naruto's smile widened at that.

"We miss her too, you know," stated another figure. This figure wore a blue hanfu and had white hair and skin. "She is my favorite student after all."

"My best friend," Karin added.

"My baby sister," the Sun God continued.

"And my daughter in law," stated another male voice as a figure emerged from the darkness of the room, dressed in a dark green kimono. "Right, Naruto?"

Naruto smiled. "Dad," he said as his face brightened a bit at the sight of the blond man, the older Namikaze.

"She is a member of our family," another child's voice said as yet another figure appeared from within the blowing wind. "And we'd be damned if we let another one of us die and their existence disappear, leaving us once again. But this time, never coming back..." The figure smiled.

"Your Majesty," everyone bowed to the childish figure sitting on the fist throne in the room, the one that's farest in and was the only one in the middle, the highest throne.

The boy smiled. "Tell us what you want us to do, my dear nephew," he continued. "And we'll help you anyway that we can."

Naruto smiled as he bowed to his uncle. "Then…" he started, a glimmer in his eyes as his old trickster self came back to him, telling his family the plane and sharing their ideas together. He had to life this to the best of his abilities After all, for the family to be together like this, and not trying to kill each other or arguing with one another (even if it's fun to watch and has become a conman thing within the family, as well as entertainment and prof of their strong, Family bond still going, even after all this years), was quite a rare sight to see…
