~~~SCENE CHANGE~~~~~

Have you ever had a day where things are really looking up, only for things to go tits up in an instant? The sun is out, low cloud cover, birds singing, only for a volcano to go off right underneath you? That is what Naruto was feeling right now. Team 7 had been doing well against Kaguya. After Obito's sacrifice to save Naruto and Kakashi, they had rallied. Pushing the Rabbit Goddess back steadily. A cheap shot from Kaguya's will had disabled Sasuke. He would defiantly be down for more than a few minutes, something Naruto knew they couldn't afford. To make matters worse, it seemed Kaguya wanted to cash in on the lull in combat, in which she immediately set out to unleashing her full power on the world around them.

It was like hell. Mountains crumbled, large bodies of water began to boil. Cracks ripped through the ground like a vengeful god had struck the earth with a hammer. Tears in the very fabric of reality began to pop up every where, some leading to the dead void of space itself, sucking all manner of earth and planet life into itself. Naruto was thinking a mile a second. They needed something anything. They had to balance the scale now! As if waiting for the word, Naruto saw it, inconspicuous, innocent even. Behind Kaguya another tear formed. It wasn't the same though. Something was different. It was bright. Colorful. Like a rainbow backdrop on the former princesses back. He knew what he had to do as soon as he felt the raw unbridled power leaking from the tear. He saw the results of the action forming in his mind. He could do this!

Hey Kurama! You thinking what I am?" He shouted into his mind "I know exactly what you're thinking, and it does seem like something you would do, YOU CRAZY BRAT. No knowing what happen to us though!"Naruto grew a solemn look, thinking over his decision "Are you with me on this?" "Brat I'm stuck either way. Haha!""Can you link with the others inside Kaguya? I want you to ask them if they are okay with me doing this." "Give me a second."The moments ticked by, second after agonizing second passed in almost slow motion. "They're with you Naruto. Or in Son's words, 'We ain't got much of a damn choice!'""Thanks Ku...I'll do everything I can to make sure you guys make it out, that's a promise of a lifetime!" A proud grin came over Naruto's face, before he turned to his oldest, and dearest friends.

"Kakashi! I need you to do something for me!" Kakashi swung his head to look at the glowing blond, curious on what crazy skeem he had cooked up this time. "Lay it on me Naruto! I'm all out of ideas!" He called back. The smile that came over Naruto's face set Kakashi on edge, something about it just...didn't seem right. "I need you to lead everyone when you guys get back. I need you to watch over Sasuke and lead Konoha, teach the future generations like you taught me, Alright?" Kakashi looked confused, before understanding grew in his eyes. "What are-"

"Sakura! I need a favor from you too!" The pinkette looked up from where she was healing Sasuke. "What is it Naruto?! I'm a little busy!" She was a bit annoyed. Didn't Naruto get that healing took concentration! "I know I Know! Look take care of Sasuke okay? And apologize to Hinata for me! I have to break my promise to her. Shes gonna need you to support her too!" "What the hell are you on about?!" Sakura shouted back, miffed that he would ask such a thing during at this point in the battle, its not like he was going anywhere! "Just do as I ask okay! I love you guys!"

Kakashi went to stop him, he wanted to so much, but his body just wouldn't move. The shock of what his student was about to do, nailing him in place. "NARUTO WAIT!" The blond grinned, melancholy clear on his visage. In a burst of light he was upon Kaguya, his body bowling her and himself into the portal as the white haired chakra monster reacted by stabbing an all killing ash bone into Naruto's side. They both cried out, one in pain, the other in shock, as the portal closed behind them.

It was like a switch was flipped. The world they where stuck on righted itself almost instantly. The waters calmed, the ground stopped shaking, and the tears in the world sealed. "What...what just happened...Kakashi?" Sakura spoke softly, shock running through her. "Where did Naruto go? What did he do? Kakashi!" Desperation colored her words, as her hands gripped into fists tightly. Kakashi just stared at the stop Naruto had disappeared into, the consequences of his inaction starting to weigh on him slowly. "Kakashi! Where! IS! NARUTO!" Sakura's voice slammed into him like a blade biting into flesh. He looked down, his eyes shadowing his face.

"he...he's gone." The answer was like a whisper, a ghost floating on the wind. That didn't stop it from cutting into Sakura like a knife. The hurt was instantly on her face. "You're...you're lying!" she shouted in a panic "Naruto! Get out here! I'm gonna pound you so hard if you don't get out here right now!" silence met her declaration. Final. Absolute. "NARUTO! GET OUT HERE! YOU PROMISED ME WE'D BRING SASUKE HOME TOGETHER! GOD DAMNIT NARUTO!" Her vision blurred slowly. Her eyes searched the empty field, desperate for that glaring orange outfit. She turned again and again, frantic, before two arms wrapped around her, halting her movement.

"Sakura, he is gone. He...he tackled Kaguya into one of the tears, you saw her stab him. He. Is. Gone." Kakashi spoke softly, but each word rocketed into her. Tears quickly filled her eyes, she wanted it to stop. He had to be lying, Naruto didn't know how to lose! He was unstoppable dammit! He wasn't gone! Sakura turned to scream that in Kakashi's face only to stop short. Something was wrong. Sakura knew the person before her was suppose to be her teacher, a strong man, a man that never broke under pressure. Seeing the tears staining his face mask didn't...didn't make sense.

"I'm sorry...He's gone." Her throat tightened harshly. "No! NO! NO! NO!" She tried to shake the hands off of her arms, tears spilling along her face in a slow cascade. "NO! YOU'RE...YOU'RE WRONG!" She screamed in defiance, even as she sank to her knees. Kakashi quickly wrapped Sakura in a hug. They could worry about leaving this world later, right now, right now it was just the three of them. The remnants of team 7. now it was time for them to mourn. Kakashi sighed bitterly, hot tears marring his face, as Sakura wailed in his arms. How would he explain this to everyone?

~~~SCENE CHANGE~~~~~

Fuck. That hurt! Naruto grit his teeth as he dragged Kaguya into a long fall. He could already fill the all killing ash bone going to work, his Yin Yang release worked to halt the damage, but he knew it wouldn't last forever. Kaguya was distracted, looking around shocked at the area around them. Naruto could hear a battle in the distance, but that wasn't important right now. He had to act! "RAGH!" With a mighty cry, he latched his left hand on Kaguya's forehead, directly over her third eye. "NOW KURAMA! PULL WITH ME!" he screamed into his mind. You see, chakra transference worked both ways. It was give and take. Naruto was a master of chakra transference, and right now, he was taking back his friends! "AGGHH!" Kaguya screamed in pain and shock, her power! NO! Forming another all killing ash bone, she slid it into Naruto's stomach neatly. She had come to far! Was to close! "GIVE! ME! BACK! MY! FRIENDS!" Naruto shouted as he ripped his and away from Kaguya's forehead, pulling the chakra of the nine tailed beasts from her body in one harsh withdrawal.

It entered his system as they both continued to fall. "Damn...damn you..." Kaguya's eyes dripped, dimming as they continued to fall. Naruto released his hold on her, he had won! A grin broke across his face as another tear of space time formed below him. "Oh fuck. Ground." Naruto grimaced, this was gonna suck.

Naruto smacked into the ground with a vengeance, the two all killing ash bones in his center driving deeper into his body. "AGH FUCK!" he shouted. Casting his eyes around he surveyed his surroundings. Good no one near by. He didn't have long, he had to be quick! Commanding nine of his Truth seeking balls, he molded them into a vaguely human shape, it was hard to tell, he couldn't see straight. With a grunt, he pushed the souls of each Bijuu into one of the forms, along with a portion of power proportionate to the number of tails they owned. 'Hehe I wonder if this is how Old Man Sage felt when he made them the first time.' Naruto rolled onto his back, exhaling sharply before he gazed off to his left, huh, he must have landed on a cliff side. The sunset was really pretty. "Naruto!" He blinked slowly as forms filled his vision. Kurama had really long hair, it was a pretty orange too!

"Hehe hey guys, sorry it took...took so long." He spoke as a cough interrupted him, racking his body. "Hey it's...it's fine!" Why was Kurama's voice so high? "How do you guys like the bodies? I Had to wor...work quick. I...wanted to give you guys your old...bodies, but...i had to use something I was more familiar with haha..." He tried to be cheery, dying really hurt though, so grinning and laughing was a touch difficult. "It's...we love them, now be quite okay? Matabi and I are gonna start healing you okay?" Casting his eyes upwards he gasped softly, "Kurama! You're...a woman!" He was shocked as hell "Is this...my fault? Dammit...I'm sorry...buddy." "Psh...Don't worry about it Brat haha! I still kick ass!" Kurama spoke back, even as SHE desperately tried to push chakra into her former hosts body. "What did I say about talking? You're...You're making this hard for us ya know?"

Kurama felt strange, her throat was tight, and here eyes kept blurring for some reason. "Hey... are you crying Ku?" Naruto spoke softly before a cough ripped through his lips, blood spattered across his mouth and face. "STOP TALKING DAMNIT!" Kurama pushed more chakra into him, trying to will his injuries to heal. "hey...it's okay Ku...we both know I was done the instant...that old bitch put her...first all killing thingies in my side..." Naruto stretched his arm and whipped the tears off of Kurama's cheek. Huh, almost 17 years of constantly fighting, and here was the beast of malice, crying over his dying body. Ironic.

"It'll be...okay guys. You...you have each other...look after each other...okay? Hehe, other wise...ill have to...leave my rest to...set you all straight, Ha hah in...some weird way...i kinda am your dad now...hah ah." A joker to the end, Naruto was. He won! It wasn't time to be sad! Kaguya was beaten, his world was safe, and he even saved the Bijuu! He was awesome Dattebayo! He smiled up at Kurama, her hair was really pretty.."Ya know, at least...i did a few things right...you have really pretty hair now." Kurama could feel her chest tightening in despair Naruto's breathing grew more labored. The other eight Bijuu had already stepped back to allow them some privacy, Matabi had grabbed her should briefly as she walked away, tears falling from her face. "Y-yeah..thank you Naruto haha..." She grabbed the hand on her cheek and held onto it like a life line.

"I'm glad t...this is where...I'll die...the view is...really beautiful..." Kurama looked up and saw the sunset that had caught Naruto's eyes. "Yeah...it's like the world is sending you off brat..." "Hehe...still on brat huh? I...guess I can live with that...haha" Naruto chuckled even as his vision began to rapidly fade, his grip slowly slackening. "Naruto...please don't go. I...WE still need you!" Kurama was desperate, anything just god please anything to keep this magnificent person alive! "Hey...it's okay Ku...protect...your brothers and sisters...do it for me...okay?" Naruto spoke softly with a grin as his eyes slid closed, never seeing the frantic nod as Kurama clutched his hand tighter.

"I swear! I'll keep everyone safe! I Promise! My promise of a life time ya know!" Kurama hated this. Emotions where the worst. "Hehe...looks like I...did really well with...making you all as...human as possible...you...even have a tick...like me and mom...hahaha wel...welcome to the family...Kurama." Naruto eased his smile, soft and bitter sweet. He was really tired...this was a good place for a nice long rest. Dying took a lot out of a man. Hahaha, saved the world, all his friends, stopped a goddess, and even became a 'father'. How could a man as awesome as him find a better way to go! Cracking his eyes open one last time, he cast a bright bloody grin to Kurama as the light in his eyes finally faded.

"Take care...Kurama..." "Naruto?...Naruto! NARUTO!" Kurama shook his body. Not yet! Dammit not yet! It wasn't right! "Come on breathe! Come on COME ON! Naruto!" Matabi and and Son Goku wrapped their arms around her, slowly pulling her away from the boy who had saved them all at the cost of his life. "NARUTO! STOP! LET ME GO! I CAN STILL SAVE HIM! NARUTO!" That smile. That damn smile was still on his face. Son Goku was amazed, Kurama, the strongest and harshest of them, crying over a human. Naruto really was one of a kind. He whipped a stray tear as he held his wailing...well sister now. It didn't bother him to much Kurama never really identified as anything. 'Rest easy kid...you out of everyone...you've earned it.' He gazed out into the sunset. It really was a beautiful place to die.
