The Truth About The World

Looking around Drakkon couldn't help but notice that this place seemed so familiar. "What is this, and why is it so familiar?" Not expecting an answer he was startled as he heard a voice speak to him. "Because you have been here before." Hearing the voice Drakkon turns around seeing an old man floating criss-cross with a warm smile. "Old man sage? Wait, how do I know you and why are you so familiar to me?" Stroking his goatee he smiles. "Your right, Yehowah, sealed your memories of our first meeting." I am Hogoromo the Sage of Six Paths." Hearing that he became on guard as he jumped back. "Six Paths like Madara." Reaching around he looks for his kunai. "Relax Drakkon, I'm not like Madara, I'm the original Sage, the creator of ninjutsu and father of the tailed beast." Drakkon looks at him. "Why should I trust you?" "Well, I am one of the reasons you are alive after so long." Shocked, Drakkon could only look at him as he stayed silent and waited for him to continue.

"After your death, which I'm sure you still remember, I and Yehowah pulled your soul here to have a conversation with you. After that, he sealed off your memories and you were reborn once again, but sadly he wasn't as strong as we hoped. He was only able to lock away those memories of you meeting us. Your past life was still with you and I am sorry about that." Looking down, Hagoromo bows slightly. "If I'm being honest with you I'm glad my memories weren't sealed without them both me and Issei would have di-." Suddenly remembering the fight and how he went down. "ISSEI!!! Is he ok what happened? Did I die?" looking up at Hagoromo Drakkon could only stare at him waiting for his answer. " As for your brother Issei, he is alive and well." Letting out a breath he didn't know he was holding he smiled. "At least I was able to protect him." "You speak like you're already dead, my child."

With a sigh, Drakkon sat back down on the floor. "Wait so I'm not dead?" Hagoromo slowly shook his head. "No not at all you were close to dying thoe." "So then why am I here?" Stroking his goatee. " I believe it's time you find out the truth about what happened to the shinobi and how they were killed." Nodding Drakkon stayed quiet as he listened to what the Sage had to say. "After Madara and my mother were stopped the shinobi world finally reached peace for a few eras, but not everything lasted. There was another war that broke out Not between the shinobi but an overwhelming war against them. The religion known as Christianity started to sink its claws into the land slowly converting non ninjas as their following grew so did their power. They started a war against everyone, angels, fallen angels, and demons worked together to kill any shinobi. The war raged for years until they managed to convert the entire land of fire making their power stronger. Slowly they spread their beliefs to the farthest reaches of this world that they could, which sparked the fight in other mythologies to fight back the shinobi alliance, killing them off."

Nodding Drakkon listened to him as he tried to visualize what happened. "Slowly they started to gain more followers and were able to turn the people against them. Turning them into outlaws and criminalizing them all. People started to attack them whenever they could, and since the shinobi didn't want to attack their people it only made it that much easier for them to be killed." Looking at Hagoromo he can see the sadness in his eyes. "Then what happened?" He asked eager to find out what happened to his people. "For a bit, it looked like they were going to outlast them but then they started to attack villages with tailed beasts in them slowly sealing them in weird devices."

After sealing off most of the tailed beasts, all that was left was Kurama and that Naruto boy." Hearing this Drakkon's head turned to face him. "The fox boy did he ever become Hokage?" Hagoromo only nodded. "But it didn't last long till the war broke out. As a final effort, they started to seal powerful jutsus and weapons in ninja scrolls that were scattered around the world; only a shinobi can open them." That caught Drakkon's attention "and what kind of weapons are sealed away?" Hagoromo thought to himself before speaking. "Well, Madara's war fan is one of the sealed weapons, the blades of the 7 ninja swordsman as well as Sasuke's eye, are sealed up too." Looking at him confused, why is his eye sealed?" " Well." As the Sage was about to explain about the eye they were suddenly surrounded by crows. " I believe I can help with that if you don't mind Sage."

Looking around Drakkon thought to himself " that voice can it be?" Looking over by Hagoromo's side he saw the crows start to form into a figure of a young man with jet black hair ending in a long ponytail with a black cloak with red clouds on it. However, his most noticeable feature was his Sharingan. The figure slowly looked at Drakkon; he couldn't help but give him a warm smile. " Hello old friend it's been quite some time, hasn't it?" Drakkon could only smile at the sight in front of him. " It has been a while since we last saw each other, you looked well. I take it, you've reunited with our clan and your family." Itachi nodded. "At first it was quite strange but as time went by they slowly accepted that it was for the best as we watched both Sasuke and you fight off Madara, Sasuke have his life, but most recently we have been watching the adventure of a certain silver-haired Uchiha and his red-headed interest," Itachi said as Drakkon gained a faint blush. " *cough *c-can we please get back on topic." Drakkon tried to look away, not making eye contact with Itachi. " haha very well."

Hagoromo was saying in one of these scrolls Sasuke's eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and his six paths Rinnesharingan." "Rinne what?!" Drakkon looks at both of them confused. " I entrusted both Naruto and Sasuke with the power of Six paths both light and dark, both halves." Slowly nodding he started to understand what he meant. " I see, so that's what happened, and what of the nine tails?" " Kurama wanted to stay and fight with Naruto to the end but the boy managed to unseal and set him free. I believe he is still yet to be found.

"So what brings you here from the afterlife, Itachi?" Looking at Itachi he hears the voice of Hagoromo as he turns to face him. "I asked Itachi to come back since he was one of the strongest people you knew. When he was dead he spent time learning and memorizing all sorts of ninjutsu and genjutsu of each element. As well as mastering Taijutsu." Looking at Itachi, Drakkon smirks. " He was already a Taijutsu master. What more could he master and from who?" "Believe it or not, I learned from the Taijutsu master Might Guy. I also learned how to access the gates. Also your master Jiraiya wanted me to teach you his signature jutsu, his flame Rasengan." Drakkon raised an eyebrow. " I've only ever seen Jiraiya sensei use that jutsu once." Looking at Hagoromo then to Itachi. " Does that mean Itachi will be coming back to life in a similar fashion that I did?" Shaking his head, Hagoromo denied it. " I'm unable to resurrect people like Yehowah but this I can do." Placing his hand on Drakkon's forehead and touching Itachi's chest over his heart as he starts glowing. " w-whats going on what's happening to him?" " Itachi will be fine, don't worry now to finish why I brought you here."

Drakkon looks at Hagoromo confused, slowly remembering what happened. " That's right, I was stabbed through the stomach. How could I forget that?" He placed his hand on his stomach remembering what happened. "Does that mean that I'm dead?" He looks at Hagoromo with a bit of worry. "When I pulled you in you were surrounded by demons, but since you're still here I can say that the demons did not kill you but allow me to have a look." Placing his hand on Drakkon's head Hagoromo slowly started to gain a tint of pink as he pulled his hand back, chuckling. "You are still alive my boy but your time here is short so I will implant these memories in you about the abilities of the Mangekyo sharingan. That way you'll be able to use each ability freely as long as you have the chakra for it." Covering Drakkon's eyes they start to burn a bit as he falls to his knees. His vision began to blur as Hagoromo slowly started to vanish, returning him to the darkness. " What was with that face I could have sworn he was blushing but why?"

Slowly the light started to return to him as the sun was piercing through his blinds waking him up he layed there feeling no pain in his body as he started to open his eyes. "it's so bright." Sitting up he noticed he was not wearing any clothes. "m? What is going on where are my clothes?" looking around he spots a lump on his bed as he reaches for the blanket pulling it off. "W-what R-rias?!?!
