Second chapter time, not much action or what not here. I'm basically just setting up the premise for the rest of the fic in these early chapters. Most of the fun'll start later on, next chapter probably.
Naruto’s eyebrows shot up at Sasuke’s calm answer, a smile slowly curving itself across his whiskered face. “Hehe, Sasuke, I think I misheard you. Can you repeat that?”
The raven sighed, reminding himself that Naruto wasn’t privy to the knowledge he was and so an ounce or so of disbelief and denial was ought to be expected from the blonde.
“You didn’t mishear me Naruto. I said it loud and clear; the man standing before us is Death, the Shinigami or whatever it is you want to call him.” replied Sasuke pointedly, his eyes still fixed onto the man seemingly known as Death.
The blonde simply stood frozen for a second, the smiled wiped off his face leaving a frown in its place. Seconds passed and Naruto did little to move, his own blue orbs fixed onto Sasuke, half expecting the last Uchiha to suddenly burst out into laughter exclaiming ‘Gotcha!’
When such a statement didn’t come, Naruto began to take in the situation at hand. The chance that he’d died was certainly probable considering that the last of his memories ended with him lying near death’s door in a crater beside the raven.
That made the chances that the man in front of him being Death all the more viable, but then again, all of this being some sort of Genjutsu being cast by Madara was also an option. Then again, Sasuke would probably have realized that it was a Genjutsu, however, what if this Sasuke was a part of the Genjutsu too?
All this and more raced through the blonde’s mind over the course of a moment, Death staring amusingly at the blonde Uzumaki as he stood frozen in thought.
“Is he okay?” inquired the pink-haired man jovially.
Sasuke made no move to respond, instead choosing to break his one-sided staring contest with Death and turn his attention to a still transfixed Naruto.
“Oi, teme, this isn’t the time to be daydreaming!” hollered Sasuke loud enough to snap Naruto back to reality.
“Ugh, sorry Sas……whoever you are.” stated Naruto causing the raven to raise an eyebrow.
“I’m onto your game! This is all a Genjutsu isn’t it?! Madara Uchiha you goddamn thousand year old hag, come out and face me man to man!” hollered Naruto towards the blank white sky, his fist raised and shaking in an attempt to express his outrage.
“Heh, that bastard thought he had one over me with this Genjutsu but Naruto Uzumaki, future Hokage of Konoha is smarter than that! Even without Kurama I can still kick your Genjutsu’s ass!”
Sasuke sighed yet again, his temple throbbing in annoyance as he began to walk over to the still ranting blonde and proceed to hit him over his head. “This isn’t a Genjutsu Naruto so shut up and focus on the situation at hand.” muttered Sasuke with more than a bit of annoyance to his voice.
Naruto, being Naruto who never truly listened to facts simply shot back, “Dobe! You think that shitty statement will magically make me believe you!? Stupid Genjutsu Sasuke! Heck, now that you’re closer to me, it’s obvious that you don’t even look like the real Uchiha-teme I know! You’re hair’s not nearly as duck-assed as his is and your eyebrow twitches nowhere near to the amount his does when he’s angry. And it’s obvious you’ve messed up on h-“
“Let me interrupt you there Naruto-kun before Sasuke-kun proceeds to royally thrash you.” said Death with a smile, his eyes gazing upon a Sasuke who seemed on the verge of choking the blonde to a death within death.
“If you wish for proof that this isn’t a Genjutsu, then I shall prove it. Ask me any question about yourself Naruto-san and I’ll answer it. Any question at all.”
Naruto seemed to ponder the offer for a while, his blue orbs gazing upwards in a motion of thought before he finally restored eye contact with the pink suited deity. “Alright, fine! Tell me ‘death’, who was it that helped me initially restrain Kurama when I tried to control him the first time over?” asked Naruto confidently, certain that the pink-loving man wouldn’t be privy to information that took place deep within the bowels of his mindscape.
“It was your mother of course, Kushina Uzumaki. Or, at least the residual memory of her.” replied the man without hesitation, surprising the blonde.
“But…..how?” questioned Naruto.
“Why dear boy, I am Death. There is no information that I can’t get a hold of within a seconds notice. If you wanted, I’d have told you anything about history, anything about the famous Sage of the Six Paths himself had you asked.”
Naruto lay standing in silence, a moment of disbelief displayed in his eyes before he lowered his head.
“So…..” he began with a saddened tone, “I really am dead aren’t I?”
“Indeed you are dear boy. You should be proud of yourself Naruto, surviving the extraction of a Tailed Beast and still having enough energy and residual Tailed Beast chakra left over to use a Tailed Beast Bomb is a mighty feat, especially considering you did so on your deathbed.”
Naruto however seemed too depressed to answer, his eyes wavering between his hands and the floor. Sasuke, having been silent up till this point, in a rare moment of compassion, laid his hands across the blonde’s shoulder, a smile curved across his pale face.
“Naruto, it’s no big deal that you’re dead.” stated Sasuke with a surprising tenderness to his voice that even stunned Naruto, “,it just means that you’ll be able to meet your mother and father soon. I’ll even be reunited with my parents and Itachi. We have all of eternity to mope over our deaths, why start now?”
“S-sasuke….” muttered Naruto before a weak smile curved across his face. It wasn’t what the raven had hoped for, but under the circumstances, it would have to do.
“So, Death,” began the Uchiha as he redirected his attention to the diety, “where are we? What’s with all this white space?”
“Ahh, yes, ind-“
“Wait a minute!” interrupted Naruto suddenly, a quizzical look to his face, his depression already forgotten, “how do you even know Death anyways?”
“Oh….yeah…”
“I’ll be the one to answer that Sasuke-kun. It’s quite simple Naruto-kun, Sasuke knows who I am simply because he’s met with me before, quite recently infact.”
“H-he, he has?” questioned an incredulous Naruto.
“Yes, he has. Alongside a man that simply seems to find….’imaginative’ ways to defy my grip.”
“Who?” asked the blonde.
Sasuke’s eyes met Naruto’s, dark black against shining blue, “Orochimaru…”
