Everywhere I looked I saw destruction. I saw physical destruction as people around me ran in chaos. Mental destruction as I saw my friends breakdown. I saw sadness as the truth struck them. I saw heartbreak as rejection hit the in the face. I saw pain as their blood flowed from their open wounds. I saw their agony as they felt the knives twist in their backs. I saw betrayal in their eyes as they turned to me and realization feel upon them.

I took a step back as they turned to me. For every step they took towards me, I took one away from them. I realized that one step at a time wasn't going to be nearly enough. I whirled around and ran to the closest exit and s I ran, I saw it grow smaller until the door vanished to be replaced by a white wall that I slammed into.

I turned to face them, just in time to feel the first one of them touch me. I felt her sadness leave her and enter me as her truth became mine, and when all her sadness was gone, she left, making it my sadness.

The rejection came next as I felt their heartaches become mine and they walked away. I felt my fresh pink scars open again as fresh blood flowed down my arms and thighs, tracing the same pattern it did everytime. I felt the knives plunge into me and then twist as those who had been backstabbed, walked away, their hurt gone.

I feel to my knees and broke down as the mental destruction swept over and turned into physical destruction. Clothes all torn and bloody, blotchy skin, shaky bones and a throbbing heart, I curled into the floor and suffered through my destruction, as it slowly destroyed me.

Moments later I woke up again, healed and healthy. I opened my eyes and had my moment of blissful oblivion until reality struck me again.

Once again I saw it all in the others; the pain, the heartbreak, the agony and the betrayal as they once again began moving towards me.

I sat down with my back against the wall. A lot of markings lined the wall behind me. My mob of short spiky blonde hair laid on my head, my once vibrant sea blue eyes now turned soulless blue eyes from all the horrors that they had witnessed, three vertical whisker mark adorned both side of my cheeks. I had on a dirty blue jumpsuit which is the prisoners uniform and black sandals though I let the upper piece hang around my waist leaving my upper body bare. My cell is shrouded in darkness which made my glowing blue eyes the only visible object in the room. The cell is bare of any possession except for a pit latrine In the corner of the room and a bunker. Several markings on the wall, the most distinguishing one will be the huge spiral drawn in the middle of the wall opposite me exactly where my bunker resided. I stared at the wall drowning in my thoughts, thinking about that faithful day.

The soft tapping of a footstep brought me back to reality. I tilted my head a little to get a better look at the prison guard that appeared before my cell. He had on a prison guard uniform which consisted of a dark purple Shinobi pant and top, black vest and sandals with a pouch and a small red scroll on his waist.

"Uzu..."I shot him a sharp glare immediately shutting him up. The guard felt a lump grow in his throat as he immediately corrected his mistake.

"Naruto-san, you have a visitor" The room fell into an uncomfortable silence. The only sign that I heard him was the slight tilt of my head. I sat down there for a little while longer, it's been awhile since anyone came to visit me if ever. Ever since that day I had all been abandon, only one person would ever bother to pay a me visit.

Lost in thought I had already forgotten that the guard was still there. A soft tap on the bars of the cell jolt me out of my thoughts. I seem to be thinking a lot lately. I locked eyes with the guard for a second causing him to falter a bit before I got off the ground and walked towards him. The guard hurriedly unlocked the cell door and held it open for me as I made my way out of the cell. He stood there with the door held open and his head slightly bowed all the while. I paid him no attention as I walked pass the guard and towards the visiting area.

'Hmmm, guess all it takes is one guy losing his balls and everyone suddenly becomes submissive. No, it's been like this since the day I was placed in this prison'. I continued my journey to the waiting room. Each guard I walked pass bowed their heads to me in respect. I still don't understand their reason for doing so. I made it to the waiting room where a male guard stationed there opened the door for me. I walked in and sat down on a chair, on the other side of the chakra reinforced glass sat a lady.

She had pale lavender eyes and light blonde hair that falls past her waist, which she keeps tied at the end with a bow. As a formal priestess, she wore a black kimono with red paw pattern markings on it. She kept hair tied back with a golden crown. I smiled when I caught sight of the little blonde haired girl held in her arms only for it to turn bitter when I realized the burden that I had unintentionally placed on her. I moved my gaze to her mother to see the sad look and smile portrayed on her face as we make eye contact, she must have read my mind.

"Beautiful isn't she?" Shion asked trying to lighten up the mood but her words only served to remind me of what I had missed. I returned my gaze to see the child staring at me with childlike curiosity, her big blue eyes seemed to be taking in every features of my face. He couldn't help but smile at her childlike curiosity.

"She is". And with that the room fell into a deep silence except for the occasional baby noise. She made a series of sound that makes it seem like she's trying to communicate.

'She really is cute, it hurts me just by thinking of it'

Shion couldn't help but watch as i continued to Stare sadly at our daughter currently fondling in her arms. I'm sure it hurts her to see me do it and even more whenever she couldn't see the happy go lucky blonde that she fell in love with and married. To think that something could actually break me only adds more wound to her heart. After all I did for them, I bled, sweat, cried, fought and would gladly die for them but all they did was betray me at the first chance they got. To think that I would miss the birth of my own child.

"How old is she?" I couldn't help myself from asking. It's really hard to keep track of time when you are in prison.

"Um..2 year old" She answered somewhat eagerly, probably glad that I'm speaking more words than usual. We made eye contact again and when I saw her eyes light up that I couldn't help but smile.

'She's beautiful indeed'

"It's still hard to believe that we made her in this very prison". I couldn't help smiling fondly at the memory which made her giggle.

"You are starting to sound like an old man"

"Maybe I am" I shrugged. I might as well be here for the rest of my life.

"It's still hard to believe that they allowed it"

Now it's my turn to give a small smile. As much as I hate to admit it, it's actually much nicer in this prison than it is outside. But calling it a prison is an understatement, it's more like a fortress and shion was only allowed in because of her position as a priestess.

"I guess I can add that to the list of crazy things I have done" I laughed trying to ease up her worries but she saw right through my move and a stern look from her was all it took to lock me up.

"You don't have to pretend to be happy, koi. I know that every second you spend in this place, a piece of you is slowly fading away*sob*" Not being able to hold it back anymore she let her tears flow as she didn't want to loss the man that she love. I could practically see the aura of sadness wash over her but I wasn't the only one that sensed it as the little blonde felt uncomfortable in her mother's arm.

"Shion-chan"

"You don't have to pretend to be happy for my sake. I know that you are on death row Naruto" She revealed causing a dark swirl of negative emotions to steer within me as the room fell into another round of silence. The baby stopped what it was she was doing to stare at her mother, the tear drops dripping on her face had gotten her attention. She couldn't help but to stare at the tears streaming down from her mother's eyes. If only I could hold her in my arms.

"Shion?"

"I don't want our daughter to grow up without her father in her life" Now the tears are steadily flowing as she cried her heart out. I couldn't help the sense of hopelessness that I felt as I could do nothing to ease her worries. Now I remembered why I swore to enact my revenge on them. Because they took away the only thing I had ever wished for...to have a family of my own.

Normally a death row sentence in the Shinobi world will take place in six months time but for someone that they wanted to get rid of, someone like him. He was given a whole year to live, a generous offer they said. They called it my reward for saving the Shinobi world. They probably want to see me suffer before my death.

Maybe Madara was right. Maybe the infinite tsukuyomi was the answer. I should have sided with him when I had the chance. He and the others would probably be laughing in their graves right now. I should have let pein destroy the village.

"Stop crying shion-chan, your daughter doesn't like it" I tried comforting as it's the only thing I could do when I saw the child's big blue eyes swell up with tears. She seemed to realize it and quickly wiped off her tears.

The little girl tugged at her mother's shirt gaining her attention.

"Mommy, why are you crying?"

"Mommy is not crying only naught girls cry" Shion said as she starts tickling the little girl causing her to laugh uncontrollably. I watched the scene with a small laugh. I felt my eyes shed tears at the sight of what could have been. Shion stopped tickling the girl to stare at me in surprise but who could blame her. This is the first time that she had seen me cry since that day. The door opened as a guard walked in causing us to stop momentarily as our attention is now on him. He gave a slight bow to the both of us before saying.

"Times up naruto-sama"

"I see. Thank you"

With his piece said. The guard turned heel and walked out of the room, shutting the door behind him.

I sighed before turning back to shion and said, "I thank you for always being here for me. For not abandoning me, but I must go now". With my piece said. I stood up from my sit and bowed my head to her in respect. This will probably be the last time I get to see her as she's only allowed to visit once every 6 months. At least I kept my promise about helping her make a baby. But in reality she was actually the one who helped me. I turned on my heel and walked towards the door.

"Koi...".

"Oh I nearly forgot.." I turned my head a bit to get a better look at the life I helped create. Taking in every details as it might probably be the last time I get to see her "...What's her name?".

"Na... naruko"

'I see'

"That's a beautiful name. I'll be sure to remember it." And with that I made my way out of the visitor room leaving a heartbroken shion and a clueless naruko behind.

After Naruto left Naruko turned to shion and asked, "mommy who was he?"

Shion picked up the little girl and said with a sad smile. "That was your daddy"

"My... Daddy" Naruko turned to look at the door the blonde haired man had walked through longingly.

...

I stepped out the door only to see the guard from before standing before me with a brown haired man by his side. The man has a sad look on his face.

"What's with that look warden?"

"It's just that I happened to experience a very heart breaking moment."

"hm"

"Isn't it unfair how you only get to see her only once in 6 months?"

"Life isn't fair warden. I learned that a long time ago."

"True" The warden said with a light shrug."...But this is gonna be the last time you see them."

"I am not afraid of dying, sukuna".

"Yes I know...But are you afraid of living?" He inquired. I turned to look at him when I heard his question. Try as I may I couldn't figure out the reason behind his words. It's really hard to tell what he's thinking behind that emotionless mask of his.

"What's there to live for? I'd rather die than live in this ungrateful world."

"That's your opinion. What about family's?"

"..."

"What will you do if you were to be given back your freedom?I await your reply" He gave me a light bow before a guard walked up to me to escort me back to my cell. His words caused something to stir up inside of me. Was I truly being selfish by deciding that there is nothing left to live for. The tear filled face of shion flashed through my mind like a bolt of lightning. In all my 4 years of being in this prison, I never once thought that there was anything to live for...all I ever thought about was seeing that village burn to the ground. Deciding to turn my attention to more fruitful thoughts. After all the kages made sure to place me in a full maximum lockdown prison located in the land of iron with a kill on sight order should I ever try to escape. A prison only those deemed a threat to the world are kept.

"Sir?" The guard next to the warden finally spoke when he believed I was out of eardrop.

"Yes"

"Is it really okay to let him go?"

"You must be new I presume?"

"Yes sir"

"Sigh*" Sukuna took a long Lasting look at the back of Naruto's head he retreated back to his cell. He couldn't help the flood of sadness that filled him at the injustice of the all situation.

"Do you want me to be honest with you newbie?"

"Yes sir"

"Well the truth is that that man is the one who helped us win the great war and saved us from eternal slavery" Sukuna summarized. The cadet went wide eye at what his captain is trying to say as he stared at the back of said man in shock.

"You mean to say that that's the war hero" A simple nod was his answer. He stared from his commander to the man currently retreating back into his holding cell.

'So that's Uzumaki naruto. The famed war hero.'

"If he is the famed war hero as you claimed he is, then why is he in prison?" The guard just couldn't shake off the uneasy feeling that there was more to this than meet the eyes.

"From what I was told he was deemed too dangerous to walk the earth and so had his chakra sealed and relieved him of his tailed beast. He was betrayed by the very people he saved and is now placed on death row. But we in this prison sees him as a hero and would always bow our head to him in gratitude and respect for saving ungrateful beings like us".

"Do you understand now newbie?"

Said cadet had his eyes glued to the back of the man...no god.. to be able to reply his commander. He stood there for a few seconds before standing upright then gave a deep bow to the man's retreating form.

"Arigatou...Naruto-sama"

Sukuna couldn't help the small genuine smile that graced my face when I heard those words. Maybe there's still hope for this world. You really should consider living again Naruto-sama."
