Chapter 6

One Year Later

Wan-Minato

In the shadowed alleyways of the large city Wan-Minato, two fractions stood. One, a large man with wearing all black and a red mask resembling a horned tiger with one eye hole, a sneer and several strange markings carved and upon it; all of them stars, his black deadlocked hair flipping in the night air. Several smaller men and women behind him dressed similarly, but lacking the masks.

On the other side of the alley, were only three figures, one out in the open, one hooded and face wrapped, leaving only two cold grey eyes. The uncovered one was a woman with long white hair, and two pairs of amber horns sticking out of her head. Underneath her clean cut bangs was a headband with a star on it and a long scratch right through it, stating that she was from Hoshigakure(Village Hidden Among Stars) but also a missing-nin. Her bright blue eyes were narrowed in fear, and it seemed to almost be a constant on her face.

The young boy, Kazuma shifted uneasily. After the merging with the ''symbiote '', he had gained most of its powers in near full. He was scared of these people, anyone could tell at a first glance.

The symbiote was a strange thing in itself. He could always feel it''s(her''s) presence around, and she(it) always spoke in his ear seeming to analyze everything in their surroundings. ''...they''re angry, always angry my dear host...can''t help it at all, looking to attack soon, hatred, awe, worship...colors everywhere jealousy of us of her of everything...waiting hoping to...'' He attempted to block her out for the moment to pay attention to his white haired companion.

"R-ryu-sama.." The white haired woman stuttered in fear, eyeing the men on the other side. "T-the...the sealing...we should h-hurry."

"In a moment Kotou." The wrapped figure spoke, in a steel voice, but a dark laugher cut her off.

"Now, now my dear Ryu-sama." The horned leader spoke in a happy, playful voice, almost as if he was smiling underneath his mask. As he probably was. "You shouldn't undermine your supporters like that." His demeanor changed into a sneer that was heard thought the red, horned mask and Kotou lowered her eyes in shame while Kazuma balled his fists in anger. .

Ignoring them, the man stepped forward. "You know why we follow you, Shinigami-sama(1). We would die hundreds of times over for you, and yet you refuse? Reduce yourself with this rubbish." He motioned to the other two, a small black and blood dagger, appearing from within his sleeve. The other men and women shifted, as well, longing to cut, to kill the one unworthy of their god's attention, or her divine retribution.

"I see no trash here but you Appono(2)." The black figure spoke coldly.

The moment that she had spoke, the happiness that the small group had, was completely lost. The leader had let off the happy, giddy feelings that he had when the group had first spotted her. Appono seemed to be controlling his emotions, trying his best not to let out any of the killing intent that was aimed at Kotou and Kazuma.

"You know we will wait foreve-"

"And you can keep waiting." She hissed in scorn.

Appono merely sighed for a moment. "That was what my father heard, and my grandfather, and my great grandfather. You can not escape. Not this destiny. Death will be our beginning and their," he jerked towards the other two. "end. Those who have been loyal throughout the ages will be rewarded for their deeds."

"And that," She returned. "Was what your father said, and your grandfather, and your great-grandfather said. I'll keep this up until the end of the world, end of the universe, the end of End itself." One could hear the pride in her voice.

"I have no doubt that you'll know where I'll be, so listen up!" She barked. The other shinobi behind him, stood up straighter and their body language was screaming near giddy with happiness.

"Since I'm helping with the forming of a new village, I need you to steer clear. Do not attack anyone from Naruto-bozo's(3) village. Got it?" she asked before they saluted––admiration and praise seen clearly. She cringed. "And," she added knowing that someone would love her sooner or later added, "And you are allowed, and damn encouraged to take out as many sound-nins as you want without killing off too many of them."

Before they could even salute again, she had turned on her heel and left with Kotou and Kazuma trailing at her heels, not wanting to be stuck behind with the other ninja.

Appono smiled. You could tell even under his mask. "Success." He breathed, giddy again. She had finally bean to use her pieces. The game was finally afoot.

Sun Crater

"Lets get moving people! Move-Move-Move!!!" A yell was heard through the wide space that was the Sun Crater. When nearly a year ago this entire area was deserted now stood nearly a few hundred people, ninja or not, human or demon.

The sound of that harsh yell sent many running to their places around the seal. Around the length of the island was a huge mix of seals, human, demon, and otherworldly. Inside the length of the seal were many tents, enough to house all of them, wagons filled with supplies and construction materials

In one of the tents, a young woman with dark blue hair and a slight emo cut, raised her quite agitated self from the large futon on the floor. The sun shone on her face, scrunched up in annoyance.

"Hinata-hime!!!" a cheering voice sang from outside the darkened tent. "Up up up!! You have ta get up Hime!!" Hinata's face went perfectly with the over-one-eye haircut she had gotten in Wan-Minato.

"Today''s the dayyyy, the sun's a shinin' and We. Are. Doing. The. SEAL!!!!" Naruto bellowed, lightly pouncing on the futon, next to her. "Hiimmeeee." He whispered as Hinata retreated back under the covers. "Hiiimmeeee." He whispered again, his golden hair bouncing in the air––almost as much as he was.

"Naruto-sama!! Naru––oh here you are sir." An annoyed voice sounded through the tent as the flaps were pulled open. Hinata winced at the light that shone through her blanket.

"Ah! Heya Bikan-chan! How the seal holding up? We good ta go?" Naruto''s asked. Bikan-san sighed.

"No Naruto-sama, not yet, because it seems that Shimo-sama, has disappeared AGAIN." Naruto swore, in which Hinata hit him over the head with her orange moshi-pillow.

"Naruto-kun!!" She scolded as he held his head in fake agony. "Wha-??" She merely smiled in excitement and pure happiness. "You wouldn't want to wake our little one with you terrible language, hmm?"

"Daddy!" A small gold tinged voice yelped from beneath a huge pile of pillows––several shaped like foxes–– and squirmed in an effort to get out.

After a few second, the squirmed stopped and all was still for a couple seconds. Then it squirmed towards where Hinata was lying under an usually large pile of fuzzy...um...stuff.

"Mommy." it asked.

"Yes?" Hinata asked pondering this dilemma. She could go and unleash her daughter on her unsuspecting husband. But that would mean getting up. Hmmm...

Her daughter absentmindedly hummed a small tune while trying to crawl over the Uzumaki. "Uhhh...I cant getup."

A loud laughter from Naruto's. "Can't get up, hmmm?" He asked, his hands roaming the blankets. "I wonder..." Laughter came from his daughter. "Now Majo,(4) prepare to be defeated!!!!"

Majo attempted to roar but only ended up as a peep, and from under the blankets the pillow burst and she landed in his arms mid-jump.

"Rasengan(5)!" She yelled putting her fist to where Naruto's stomach was and making 'whooshing' sounds to go with the master attack.

''Little Majo. Our little girl.'' Hinata thought with pride as she too got out of the blanket's and watched her husband and daughter romp around. Majo hair was long and shiny, almost fur-like the same as her father's, blond with two large dark blue bangs coming out on each side of her head. Her bright blue eyes, the ever popular Uzumaki family trait, and a read triangle on each cheek––lower on the face than her teammate Kiba's. Her small, pink summer dress flew up and showed her underwear and small tanned body while her straw sandals went flying.

A small 'hem' from the tent flap brought them out of their moment. The attention focused on Bikan, her jet black hair drew tightly in a office-like bun and blind eyes narrowed in irritation. "Now if your quite done with being...well..."

"Silly?" Hinata suggested, eyebrows raised.

"Random?" Naruto implied, rubbing his stomach.

"Retarded!!!" Majo yelled grinning from ear to ear.

"Retarded." Bikan decided. "The seal has been done for hours. So. Lets. Go." She ended dangerously eyeing them.

"Yay!!!!" Majo cheered, donning her sandals and running out of the tent. "Maybe Lee and Kisame bought more CD's from the city!!!"

"That''s right," Naruto mused sitting up. "Of coarse she takes after you in her love of music." He said to Hinata. "Why did they go to the city again?"

"Last minute supplies." Bikan supplied. "We wont be able to leave for about decade or so any way you look at this seal. How will we be able to advance if we're interrupted anyway?" She asked sarcastically. "Its not like other ninja cities have had to build themselves up while at risk from attacks or infiltration."

"Har har." Naruto grumbled as the three stepped out of the tent and into the morning sun.

696969696969696969696969696969696969696969696969696969696

"Kisame-kun!!!" the young blond yelled as she jumped into his outstretched arms. "And Lee-kun!!" she added seeing the green ninja holding a large bad of...things as they got off the large boat that was bringing the last minute passengers and supplies.

And those things were probably for her. Oh yes...she knew the looks on their faces. Those were the faces of 'I've got something for you but I aint tellin' Bitch!!!' Ohhh! They will tell Majo what they got her. Yes they will...

"Whatcha get me, whatcha get me, whatcha get me!?!?" She yelled while her hands itched to grab, seize, take, and/or steal the large assortment of bags while struggling to get away from Kisame.

They both laughed as she struggled in vain. "There ya go kid." Kisame said as he and Lee handed her the bags and she ran off thought the crowded beach, off to give out presents to her friends.

As they rested against a large pile of planks, the two sat, quietly viewing the chaos around them. "A little Sunflower." Lee marveled, watching Majo pull things out of the plastic bag, to the 'ooh's' and 'ahh's' of her widely varied friends.

"Yeah," Kisame grunted, pulling out a bottle of water, while the young blond gave a large dragon poster to a small, shy-looking purple headed girl. "She has the gift. The one where friend are made just so easily. Just like her daddy dearest. She'll be the pride of this village."

"Yep! Aint' she the cutest!" A cheerful voice joined their conversation.

"Shimo-chan!!!!" Lee whipped around, seeing the Ryu(6) Jinchuuriki standing behind them. "Where were you!?"

"Here and there," she replied plopping into his arms, watching the people come and go. "How'd things go while I was away?"

"Pretty well." Kisame answered. "Lee and me went to Wan-Minato to get some stuff for the kid, and Bikan an' Naruto are searching high and low for ya." He grinned manically.

"Isat so?" The red-head asked as Majo pulled out a red cape, and handed it to a young girl with wind-blown black hair and a Sharingan(7). "The seal is starting soon hm?"

"For a while. Then we'll need to start building." Lee answered.A cheery and accented greeting came from behind the large planks they were sitting against. "Oi! Lee-san!!"

Lee turned and whooped as a group of brown and green haired people came walking towards them. "Hazari!!! Hazari-kun!! I did not know that you would be joining up today!"

A large man who stood nearly seven feet tall, with cropped brown hair, lazy eyes and a cheerful smile. The large group that stood behind him, also had the lazy eye and brown and green hair. They dispersed around the beach, looking for people and calling out greetings.

Hazari looked behind himself to see everyone gone, save a small five year old, who was making a sand-castle. "I have no power!! Over my own clan!! Traitors!!" He explained to the three glory ninja. "Hey Heni, why dontcha go play with those kiddies over there? Eh? Ehhhhh??" Heni who was playing with his now mud-castle, nodded and politely smiled at the three. "Make sure to keep him in line." He informed Kisame gravely, as his father sputtered.

As the kid walked off, Hazari muttered more to himself than to anyone else, "Only my mother would say that..."

"Ah well!" Shimo stated brightly as Lee nodded vigorously. "Kids need to grow up fast nowerdays! And don't worry," she stated in concern. "We'll take good care of you."

Mock concern of coarse.

Lee stepped in before anything else could happen and asked, "So Hazari-kun, why are you here? Naruto didn't get any replies from your clan, and thought that you had declined."

The giant of a man roared with laughter attracting several slightly frightened onlookers. "Declined?!?" Hazari, roared again and his body shook from the laughter. "After that lose to Naruto, I promised I would serve him with my life!!" He grinned. "I would never miss my chance to see the new world under his command!!"

Kisame and Lee both raised their eyebrows, and Shimo looked a bit unnerved. "Now, now Hazari," She started nervously. "I really don't think that Naruto-bozu is aiming that high up right about now! He only wants to rule glory and–"

But the brunette's laughter cut her off. He stopped after a while a replied with the same amount of comprehension. "I don't think that you people know how a man like Naruto works." His grin grew even wider, if that was possible. "Men like Naruto," He mused while looking out onto the water. "Those kind of people are either wholly evil and ambitious, unforgiving and manipulating or, kindhearted and loyal to the freakin' bone, loving and still ambitious no matter what happens. Naruto is a large mixture of both, 'cause he's loyal, kind, loving, but also unforgiving and manipulating even if he's unaware of it!" Hizari shook his head in grief. "For a leader, we seriously could not get any better than him! He aint gonna let anything happen to this city!! Man, Kohana made another giant-ass mistake!!! They gave up the greatest guard dog because of mere technicalities!!"

Ignoring that these 'technicalities' were purely racial.

The glory-nin took that all in. "Lucky," Shimo laughed as Kisame nodded smiling. Lee was lost in his daydreams, far away with a middle aged man with a bowl-cut.

Then a low growl was heard from behind them. As Shimo looked up, she met Naruto's angry gaze. After merely staring, she grinned and childishly waved. "Heya! Naruto-bozu!! And heyy!! A Hime and Bikan! Now what's some fine looking people doing in a place lie this?" She addressed Hinata and Bikan who were standing behind a irritated blond.

Naruto sputtered several disjointed things before deciding to ignore her disappearance, and stiffened at seeing Hizari. Then he roared and grabbed the man in a giant bear-hug while the brunette did the same. "Hizari-kun!!! I thought ya wouldn't be here!! What happened man!?!?"

The giant laughed once again as he looked down at the fox-holder. "We just got your letter about two days ago kiddo!!"

"Wha-?" Amusing himself at the look of surprise on Naruto's face, Hizari continued. "Your people spent the better part of a month trying to find us!! Couldn't get through the swamp, especially with all the traps around and the swamp-viper summons!!!"

At Naruto's look of horror, he spoke with a reassuring tone while ignoring the people crowding around their small group. Some were taking seats as if waiting for a show to start. There was even a woman with ice blue hair selling ramen cups! "Don't worry, don't worry!! No one got too hurt!"

The blond sighed in relief. "That's good. Really good." He suddenly glared at the taller man. "And don't even tell me you all just ran straight here!!" At the sheepish look on Hizari's face he growled. "Don't you ever take care of your self?!?! What the hell is the matter with you?!?!"

As Naruto continued to roar at the grinning glory-nin, Majo and her friends walked up through the crowd and to Hinata. "Hey mommy," She asked while watching her father berate a chortling Hizari. "Why is daddy such a worry-wart?" At that comment, her father looked scandalized and most of the people tried to contain their snigger.

Hizari was more respectful of coarse.

He roared. And it echoed across the beach and drew even more people to their scene.

Then he dropped to the ground like a stone and rolled around, cackling. A with his laughter, came everyone else's.

"I love this kid!!!"

"Worry-wart!?!?!"

"Oh God!!"

And in the background, Garra could be heard muttering, "Fool." To a laughing Kazuma and a stuttering, white-haired missing-nin.

But all the while, Bikan's unchecked patience, was growing thin. When thin was said, we don't mean rope thin. No, no that would be too thick. We mean more along the lines of spider-web thin. Maybe thinner. Even more so than that.

And as Naruto chased his child through the crowds, she broke. "Naruto-sama," she asked sweetly as her killing intent grew even more. Naruto, oblivious to what was going on, ran up to her cheerfully. "Hiya Bikan-chan!!"

When she suddenly grabbed the front of his shirt, Naruto knew. He knew he was in deep shit. "The SEAL." She spoke loudly and clearly at maximum death glare. "NOW."

"To the seal people!!" Naruto nervously laughed. At that order, most people began to take their places around the inside of the intricate patterns.

"Alright Jinchuuriki!!!!!" Naruto yelled as the last of the people rushed into the area and put their palms down onto the markings. "Start up your demon chakra!!!" At that moment, the other eight demon holders began pulsing their power into the large symbol.

Inside our blond, a giant Fox chakra erupted and roared. "Nine Demon Lords Of The Earth Live!!!!"

The White Snow Snake inside of Bikan hissed, "We Endure!!! We Prevail!!!"

Shimo's Dragon thundered, "We Will Return The Thousand Favors!!! From The Beginning To The End!!!"

Kemia's Wolf snarled out, "Those Who Have Hurt Our Kin, Our Charge, Our Humans!!!"

"Our Protectors And The Ones We Protect!!!!" Soy's Turtle rumbled.

"And Those Who Have Rescued Them!!!" Sang out Yama's Phoenix.

"The Wars We Fight!!! The Battles We Win!!!" Flared the crustacean within Kisame.

"The Lives We Change!! For Better Or Worse!!!" The Feline inward Yugito screamed.

Garra's Demon was last. For a few moment's it was silent then spoke in a hushed voice, "The Mistakes We Have Made And The Failures We Should Pay..."

As the power flared unchecked, Naruto turned to where Kazuma stood in the center of the barren wasteland. "NOW!!! UNLEASH IT NOW!!!!!" He screamed as the normal ninja, struggled to keep conscious due to the pressure of their Demon Chakra.

In the center of the Meteor-made Island, the brown-haired teen liberated the alien power that he was given, his symbiote now screeching. "NOW HOST, NOW!! TAKE IT!!! TAKE THE POWER!!! UNLEASH IT!!! THIS ISLAND IS OURS!!! TO TAKE, TO KEEP, TO MOLD, TO RULE!!!!!!! RULE IT!!! MAKE ME PROUD, HOST!!!"

As her(its) voice dulled his power grew. The sky grew dark, and the rain fell profusely as the thunder rumbled and the lighting struck the ground. Wherever his lighting strikes flashed along the ground, pipes and wires, beams the planks of wood that had been brought in from the mainland, all melted into the ground.

Within seconds the ground burst, and began to raise into large mounds of earth. As the mounds slowed down, they began to take the shape of houses, towers, Tall buildings and tunnels under the ground.

'All part of the plan.' Thought Kazuma, as he remembered, the hours spent memorizing, how Naruto's city would look like. Towers that shop past the sky, buildings that held jobs for everyone and more, homes; inviting and safe. Plants grew from the waste and lush forest's covered the area. This! All this is the plan! With that thought he laughed, laughed to the world, to the ninja, and to his new life. His new Happiness.

6969696969696969696969696969696969696969696

After several hours of chakra molding, the last part of the seal came into effect. The Jikoku-Youzai no Justu, or the TimeFlux Justu.

With this justu, the people in the surrounding vicinity wouldredo the three years three times, until the chun-nin exams. That was where everything started in Naruto's life, and that was where he wanted to fix it. He also wanted his children to witness it. Witness his beginning.

"Naruto!!!" Kazuma yelled, his voice hoarse. "Naruto!!!" The blond finally turned around. Letting a satisfied smile creep onto his face, the teen bellowed loud enough for all the masses to hear, "Its Time!!!!"

At that, the crowds cheered and the Demons roared.

A blond and his family began a new life.

A family of Swamp folk waited for the new world to rise.

An Alien Host began his reign.

A Dragon waited for the world to end.

And the people of Glory built a home.

TBC

-----Ahh! Another chapter! Kewl. I'm so happy the way that this is turning out because of the 'different' direction that I chose, instead of the heavily used 'Protect Kohana', 'Save Sasuke', 'or create a village just to bash Team seven' time travels. I don't go that way, people. When Naruto finally re-meets Team seven, there will be tears, disappointment and agony for any of that team's lovers. But it will be basis. No pure yelling, I thinking more along the lines of 'silent, quiet disappointment'. I can tell that masses will like that. grin Even if I enjoy the slight bashing of Sasuke, Sakura and Kakashi I feel that too much would just ruin the story in general, as most people like a balance. And for that Underworld comment, that's another name for Village Hidden under the Stars, but also a huge ninja information highway. Its very special in this story and will show up sooner or later!

The next couple of chapters will center around Majo's life growing up. She's like my own Naruto except, a bit smarter, a grander mouth and a vast vocabulary. She also has a big sister-complex and in future chapters, wants to protect everyone, even enemies, which at times clashes with her job choice. Hmmm...I think I'll call it Glory, the Childhood Arc. Ohh! That's good! It will also give some depth on who those mysterious figures wearing the masks are, and why they want to serve the wrapped person. Ya all know shes a girl, so I'll just call her Shinigami-sama.

It will also center around the glory nine and several other characters from the village. Oh and how the village progresses during that time. Not too much on anyone else thought, so you'll have to wait until the chunin exams. Haha I'm so evil, making you wait!! Hope ya like it! Ja!

Shimo Ino
