(AN)This is the first story I will be attempting to write, constructive criticism is always welcome.

Quick note, this will be a dark fic, im editing this chap to free up some dialogue, grammar and spelling improves drastically by chapter 3. Anyway, chap 6 is very light hearted and fluffy, i don't want anyone to get the wrong idea, this fic will be dark and gritty, and chapter 7 is where it really starts, i dont want people thrown off, so expect a major gear shift by chapter 7.

Chapter 1:

Prologue:

"How dare you do this to me!" A cold and thunderous voice rang out across the destroyed clearing. "I am your mother, I am a god!" The voice belonged to a woman, not just any woman however. Her name is both feared and worshiped across the known world. It was revealed to be none other than Kaguya 'Otsutsuki. She was standing on the far side of the clearing a fair distance away from the two figures standing side by side.

"Mother." One said in a somber and subdued tone. "I am sorry that it has come to this." He continued, the second figure staring at her intently across from him. "Your power has brought you nothing but arrogance and corruption." He looked towards the person standing at his side, a slight nod was given to him. "Begin the ritual, Hamura."

The figure hesitated momentarily, weighing his heart against the world. His heart did not weigh enough it seemed. "Of course, Hagoromo."

And with that, both sped across the field at inhuman speeds, with Hamura going through hand seals at a rate most humans can only dream of comprehending.

"Sealing technique: Displacement of the primordial god" Hamura called out as he approached Kaguya. But not to be outdone she blurred away from her second son, only to reappear in front of Hagoromo, her first.

"Shinra tensia" both called out simultaneously. But kaguya. Being the progenitor of all chakra, was not about to be outdone. Her technique was infinitely stronger than her first child's own. He was thrown back by an almighty force and continued sliding along the ground for a couple of meters before correcting himself. Humura was by his side almost instantly.

"It is of no use." Kaguya said in a surprisingly calm tone. As she looked up they had a clear view of her face. As radiant and beautiful as they could ever remember it. Long silky white-hair running down her back and touching the ground, two bangs framing the side of her face running down to just below her ribs. Although there were a few oddities, firstly her pale white eye's had noticeable bulges running from the side of each eye past her temple and stopping about halfway to her hairline. Two distinct red markings above both eye's, a noticeable vertical slit between both. And perhaps strangest of all, two horn like protrusions just above her hairline, strangely enough giving her a likeness to a rabbit.

"I have inherited the eye's you so cherish mother." Hagoromo stated. "Whether you have more power or not, we shall defeat you, for me and my brother fight for a higher purpose than you." He stated with conviction. "We fight for those who cannot do so for themselves, the ones you have subjugated to your will, they fear you. You are no god."

Kaguya's delicate features twisted in rage at his statement. "You fool!" she shouted, yet managed to retain her air of dignity, "You have been trying to defeat me for years now, running just like a dog after every defeat. I to fight for a higher purpose than you may think, it might not be in yours, your brothers, or even the world's best interests. But it is in his."

Hagoromo raised a single eyebrow. 'What could she possibly mean' he thought to himself. Hagoromo is a pale skinned man with spiky, shoulder-length, pale-red hair. He also sported a short goatee. He has inherited the protrusions on his forehead from his mother. He had Rinnegan eyes and no eye brows. He also had a red rinnegan in the middle of his forehead, a circle representing Yang in his right palm, and a dark-colored half moon representing Yin in his left.

"Brother." He shifted his eye's to Hamura. "What does she mean by that?" He asked. Hamura like his brother had pale skin and similar colorless white eye's much like his mothers. Similarly he had two protrusions on his forehead much like his brother, he also had the half moon representing Yin on his left palm.

"I do not know." Was the simple reply he received.

Kaguya suddenly blurred out of sight from them both, and Hamura knew pain. There standing over his haunched form, was his mother with her fist buried in his gut. The laws of physics and momentum finally caught up with him as he was launched several meters back leaving a deep trench in the ground. Haguromo pointed a fist at his mother and a grinding, metallic noise reverberated throughout the clearing. His fist now looked much like a cannon with the barrel turning at a slow, menacing pace, the center of the canon shone blue for a split second before a beam of pure chakra erupted from the cannon and sped towards Kaguya, vaporizing all in its path of destruction. Only for the blast to simply pass through the goddess.

His eye's widened in shock. And it was enough time for Kaguya to capitalize, she immediately appeared in front of him swinging for his neck with a glistening white sword made from her own bones. But thanks to his advanced eye's he barely managed to dodge in time. "I tire of these games." Kaguya stated in a flat voice, she proceeded to open the eye situated on her forehead, a red-rinnegan eye with 9 tomoe circling the pupil on four concentric rings.

'Shit.' Hagoromo swore to himself. 'If I don't end this quickly she will start drawing on the Shinji's chakra' "Whatever happened to you mother?" he tried, hoping to get a descent response from her, or at the very least buy some time. Off in the distance he could see his brother going through a long complex sequence of seals. It was buy pure luck she decided not to use her Byakugan while she had her rinnegan active, he would have smirked would it not have blown their chance.

"You were never like this, you were capable of love, not just for us, but for all existence. What made you this way?" he pressed. She sent a glare his way screaming death and rage, a terrible feeling welled up in his stomach that he tried to ignore, awaiting his mother's response.

"You have no idea what it is like." She replied, causing him to lift his eyebrow. "To be hated for doing what is right, to such an extent that your own offspring turn against you, the rage and misery that accompany that life cannot be explained in mere words."

Hagoromo snarled "That is not what is right mother!" he yelled. " You are forcing people into a life of servitude and fear! How can you expect anyone to accept that as a way of life? It is not what is right!"

"Tell me, she replied. What is good and evil? Can you feel it? Smell it? Or even see it? If you cannot prove that something exists, then it does not!" Her eyes were alight with fury and… Disappointment? "why can you not see that what I am doing is not evil, it is simply what must be done. But I do not expect you to understand, not anymore, but he will."

Before Hagoromo could respond she was sprinting forward at an incredible pace, her chakra spiked and there was a multitude of chakra enhanced bones flying towards him. Using his eyes he slowed his perception as much as possible and managed to dodge most of the projectiles, however one managed to hit him and dug deep into his side, narrowly missing his left lung. "It is over she said as she approached him with a bone sword in hand, she swung down and he barely managed to dodge the attack. Narrowing her eyes she began to speak.

"Why draw this out? Why make it more painful than it has to be? Simply stay still and let me erase your existence, forget this world and move onto the next. Even if you were able to defeat me what would you do next? Bring peace with you idealistic beliefs? I think not, peace is not brought about by love or acceptance, but by holding power above all the others! Forcing them to see things the way they should be!

"You are wrong mother" he spoke. "Peace is brought about through understanding the people around you. Even if your enemy stands across from you, know what their heart desires and you shall understand their actions."

She gave him a blank, unreadable look. "And yet her you stand, in front of you own mother no less, spouting off your hypocritical nonsense, how can you say such things while doing the exact opposite of what you are preaching?"

"I have looked in to your heart" he replied slowly standing up. "And all I see id you wishing complete dominance and loyalty, whether it is forced or not."

"Enough" she said. "Join your brother in the afterlife." The smirk on his face gave her pause. Turning, her eyes widened in surprise to see Hamura right behind her, completing the last seal in the sequence.

"fuinjutsu: suicide of the god in space and time!" he shouted and instantly kanji erupted from his body and ensnared both kaguya and himself in a cocoon of highly complex seals and glyphs.

Hagoromo, seeing exactly witch technique his brother employed to defeat his mother, felt a flood of guilt and heartache overcome him.

"Brother!" Hamuro. "You know I cannot complete this technique without outside help, hurry!" Hagoromo stared into his brother's eyes for a short moment but that was all they needed to display the love and kinship they felt for each other . this technique was designed for this exact purpose, and it was decided that the first one to get a chance would use it. Although he couldn't help but wish it was him in his brothers place at the moment. He turned to his mother and started going through thr chain of seals.

"You were to arrogant and self assured mother, you assumed Hamura was dead and didn't even bother to use the chakra you absorbed from the shinji. This arrogance has led to your downfall."

"you may not call me that any longer." She whispered, but both heard her. They were quite surprised she wasn't kicking and screaming bloody murder. Suddenly they both felt the oppressing and evil chakra of the shinji. Hamura started screaming in pain from the corrosive properties of the chakra.

"shit!" He cursed speeding up the seals to a blinding pace. "Fuin!" he shouted just as Kaguya finished her last technique

"Ninshu: bridge of space and time" she whispered to herself as the only object in her personal pocket dimension was sent millennia into the future." Go now my son." were her last words before her eyes closed and her breath left her.

Hagoromo looked sadly at his brothers corpse witch he would bury after using a chibaku tensai to seal his mother's body and create the moon. After sealing the shinji's chakra into himself. On his deathbed he would split this chakra into 9 different parts

What he would never realize is he only sealed half of the shinji's chakra into himself. And if he had paid better attention to his mothers corpse, he would have seen the rinnegan turn white and the chakra coils behind her Byakugan eyes fade away into nothing leaving only emerald green eyes.

Approximately two thousand years later:

Hiruzen Sarutobi 'The professor' as he was often called in his youth. Was dearly confused. 'I thought Kushina was only expecting a single child' he mused to himself, for on the ceremonial thrown. Were two infants. One male, the other female.

There was an oppressive feeling radiating from them both, "obviously and aftereffect of the kyuubi being sealed." He mused out loud to himself. "Minato must have split the kyuubi into two parts. 'But why does the boys feel different… Worse?' The female had short bright red hair, bright blue eyes and a massive set of lungs if the wailing was anything to go by. They were to name her Mito if he remembered correctly. He wasn't sure of the boy though. The boy, with snow white hair with a random streak of black thrown in, the boy with the sharp, intelligent, emerald eyes. A shiver went down his spine and the wind whispered to him.

"naruto" It said.
