She was born of nothingness.

Silence was the only concept she had understood.

Until he had come into her life.

Infinite

The dimensional gap was a void of pure nothingness with iridescent colors for miles to see.

Many would be loathe to call this place home yet she had relished in the silence and solitude it offered.

The bridge between Heaven, Earth, and The Underworld her home was what lay in between. Visitors and passerbys were ignored. As long as the silence was maintained there was no reason for confrontation.

Ever since her conception it had been silent.

It was silent when she had learned of the world.

It was silent when she first assumed the form of a woman.

Ophis pursed her lips into a wistful smile so foreign to her emotionless face.

It wasn't silent when he appeared screaming and cursing.

He gave her more than that silence.

Screaming was an action appropriate for specific situations. Being transported into a void was one such situation Naruto Uzumaki found himself in.

His clothes were in shambles, he smelled of blood and sweat, and was exhausted. Although fighting a god would do that to any man.

Kaguya had been defeated and now he had the dilemma of figuring out a way to leave whatever this place was and return home. He desperately missed his ramen. Crunching up his brows in concentration he took stock of his surroundings.

There was nothing, only silence if that could be described as something although that was a contradiction in itself.

He let out a sigh and decided to sit down, or float. Gravity was particularly odd in this dimension. "Now if I were Shikamaru what would I..."

"Poke"

He instantly turned, ready to fight back if need be.

There was nothing.

"Odd," he remarked he could've sworn something had just poked him.

Whether or not something had poked him he would have to wait. Sasuke was probably doing his best to look for him and he would do more harm than good if here were to experiment so he would wait.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Why was it so damn silent!?

"Wait! Kurama?...Kurama are you there?"

Again there was only silence. He deflated, if he were to be in this void he hoped it would not be alone. His childhood was an experience he would not wish upon his worst enemy.

Loneliness was misery.

The position of hokage ensured he would never feel such an emotion ever again. After all how could someone be lonely when the entire village was your family.

"Poke"

He was quicker this time he knew that he wasn't imagining things. There was something or someone here.

Again, nothing.

He did a quick scan of his surroundings once again only to be greeted by the same iridescent colors. This poking was really starting to irritate him if only he had a way to…he almost facepalmed.

Sage Mode would be enough to detect the culprit. As he gathered the natural energy that was in surprising abundance he sensed...her? Directly behind him was a female who appeared to be the same age as he was.

Long black hair that reached the middle of her back and eyes of the very same color she looked to be completely out of place in this realm of color. The fact that she was completely naked had nothing to do with this evaluation.

"Y-You're naked!" he sputtered doing his very best to avert his eyes from her womanly figure.

"Naked?" The girl questioned tilting her head which only enhanced her innocence.

Doing his best not to look at her assets he let out a rather large sigh as he took off his jacket, "Here wear this," he beckoned to the girl.

Once she had removed the jacket from his hands he turned waiting for her to put it on. He hoped it would be large enough to cover her private areas, she was quite petite for a girl his age. "Are you finished?" he questioned.

"..."

"Hello?"

"Finished?" replied Ophis in a questioning tone.

He turned clearly misinterpreting the tone she had used.

It was a mistake.

His jacket lay over her head like a blanket covering her face. He would've keeled over in laughter if it weren't for the fact that she was still very much naked and her hair which had blocked her private areas was now swept back.

"D-Do you know how to put on a jacket?!" he shouted frustration clearly laced in his voice. It was like taking care of a baby, except this baby was a teenage girl who had no clue as to what she was doing.

She continued to stare at him blankly, confused at the gibberish this human was uttering. "Ughhhh, come here" he beckoned with his hands.

She took small steps towards the sound of his voice before she stopped, halting as his arms removed the blanket covering her head. "Ophis," she said as the blonde placed the jacket over her body.

"Hmmm…?" replied Naruto clearly focused on clothing her with his jacket.

"Ophis, it's…?" she paused. When she first appeared from nothingness it was the one resounding idea in her mind. Over the millennia she had learned that people identified themselves and others with names.

"Ophis, it is my name."

"Naruto Uzumaki," he replied.

"Ahhh...there all finished" exclaimed the blonde.

She looked down, the orange cloth he had put around her went down all the way to her thighs. There were holes on both sides of the cloth and it felt almost instinctual for her to put her arms through the opening. "Mmmmhhhmm," she sighed out.

What was this feeling?

It was so warm.

"Cozy eh? remarked the blonde a grin adorning his whiskered face.

She couldn't help but mimic his actions, it felt alien as her lips turned upwards but it was inevitable. "What is this feeling?" she questioned out loud.

"Happiness, excitement, safety" replied the blonde.

A melancholic smile formed on his face as he recalled a past memory, "I've felt some of the very same emotions when it was gifted to me."

"Why is it so dirty?" she questioned while eyeing the source of such foreign emotions.

He placed his arm behind his head and started rubbing it in nervousness, "Ehhh...well I might've just battled a goddess who has the ability to transport people across different dimensions."

"..."

"..."

"Oh...ok," she replied as she used her powers to restore it to its original state.

He removed his gaze from the ground and looked up, "Ok? Just ok? Is that really all-"

He paused, the jacket which was torn and bloodied was now spotless. It looked to be the same as it was when he first received it as a gift. "W-wait what did you do?"

She looked up, black eyes met blue.

"I fixed it."

He deadpanned, "I know that but, how did you fix it?"

She copied the very same grin the human had shown her earlier it felt as if something in her heart was urging her to do this, "It's a secret"

"You said your name was Ophis right?"

"Correct" replied the Dragon God.

"Hmmm…serpent? It's an interesting name, how did you get it?"

"I don't know," she replied, and it was true Ophis was the only thing she had known besides silence.

"Did your parents give it to you?"

"P-pa-rents?" She questioned the word rolling out of her mouth uncomfortably.

"Yes," he answered. "You know...a mom, a dad, a family?"

"A family?"

It was all so confusing, the words he was saying were making no sense to her, yet she felt a certain longing at the word family.

"This family," she questioned, "What is it?"

"Well a family…" he paused, now that he thought about it he never really had the privilege of experiencing what a family was like.

"I guess you could say a family is a group of people who care for and would do anything for their other family members. It usually consists of a mother, father, and their children."

"Did you have a family?" she questioned concentration evident in her eyes. It seemed she was absorbing this information like a sponge to water.

"Yes and no," he replied.

"My parents died on the day of my birth, but eventually I saw the village I lived in and it's people as my own family.

"..."

Her face was scrunched up in confusion as she tried her best to process this concept of family, yet Naruto mistook it for something else.

"Ahhh don't worry about it you know! I've accepted that part of my life long ago so it fine. But back to you," he smiled out.

"Did you have a family?"

"No," she answered.

"Oh," replied Naruto moving his eyes to the floor in shame, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring about bad-"

"Do you want to be family?" she asked suddenly.

"W-Wait what?" he asked confused at the sudden turn of events.

"You can be the mother and I the father," she stated resolutely.

This girl, he almost facepalmed was she truly this clueless. Her eyes devoid of any emotion told him she was. Before he was able to correct her she interjected once more, "But where will we get children from?" she pondered aloud.

He outwardly cringed remembering the way Jiraiya had explained the process of childbirth to him. "Well…" he droned out unsure on how he would broach this specific subject.

"A child is the result of a mother and father's love for one another," he eventually spoke out.

"Hmmm this love, how do we get it?" she questioned.

"Wait one second, before I explain anything more can I ask you just what you are doing here?"

"This is my home," she replied quickly.

"Oh I see…" nodded Naruto in response.

"..."

"..."

"W-wait what!?" this void is your home?" questioned the blonde rather loudly.

"Yes, yes and please would you lower your voice, it hurts my ears," she muttered out recoiling at the volume.

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to be so loud," he replied apologetically.

"But wait, if this is your home what are you?"

"A dragon god," she stated rather casually.

This time Naruto facepalmed, "Of course you are."

Ophis was a very naive girl.

A very powerful naive girl.

Infinitely more powerful than himself.

She also happened to be a dragon god.

A very clueless dragon god.

Which is why he had decided to help her out using his mindscape.

"These are sweets," he gestured to the box of pocky in his hands.

"Sweets?" she repeated the words.

"Yes, they taste good but they can be bad if you eat them in excess."

He handed her the box and motioned for her to try them. The mindscape was truly an amazing place.

She examined the box before finally taking out the chocolate-coated stick inspecting the stick with the same amount of concentration she had given the box. After what felt like ages she deposited the treat into her mouth and chewed.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Well, what do you think?" he questioned after she had finished sampling the sweet.

Ophis looked to him then back to the box of pocky. In that one glance he could tell he had made a grave mistake. She pulled out another stick and sampled the sweet once again, yet this time it was twice as fast.

"Ophis?"

She ignored him and continued.

It started out as two pieces.

Than four pieces.

Six pieces.

Thirty seconds hadn't even passed before the girl was looking at him with an expression of delight and desire. Crumbs of pocky were littered over her face, evidence of the recent slaughter.

Ophis had devoured the pocky sticks as if it were her one true purpose and judging by the look in her eyes denial was not an option.

"Okay just one more, alright? Sweets are good, but remember too much and they can be bad for you."

He seriously doubted that sweets could make a dragon god sick, yet it would be less than ideal if she were to become addicted.

She gave a slight nod before he imagined another sweet. Two sticks of dango appeared in his hands.

"Here," he handed one of the sticks to her. "Now do you see these three balls, these are dumplings, now copy what I do."

He brought the stick up to his mouth and bit into one of the dumplings savoring its sweetness. Ophis followed suit, and judging by the same pleasure exhibited with the pocky he came to a troubling conclusion.

Ophis had a very bad sweet tooth.

Naruto Uzumaki was very different for a human.

Humans were loud stupid monkeys.

He wasn't stupid, but he was still loud.

She should despise him for taking away her silence, but a large part of her couldn't help but enjoy his presence.

She placed his head in her lap. They had just exited his mindscape after he had relayed his knowledge to her. From emotions to sweets he had explained many things to her. Once they had finished he had told her he was going to sleep. It was a human thing, their bodies would decrease to the bare minimum of activity in order to rest and regain energy.

Running a hand through his hair, her thoughts drifted to the concept of family. The word filled her heart with the emotion known as desire, the very same feeling she had experienced when she had eaten the sweets. He had explained to her that the father was a male and a mother was the female and a child was what resulted from their love.

The idea of this family sounded very appealing to her.

Looking at the blonde who lay asleep in her lap she made her decision.

She would make Naruto Uzumaki love her.
