Silent laughter

*Naruto's POV

I woke up with a pain in my head

"Ouch," I said as I tried to sit up. I reached up to my head and I felt a bandaged wrapped around my forehead and I had a cast on my arm.

"Good your awake" Shikamaru said as he walked into the hospital room

"Where is Sasuke," I asked him

"He got away thanks to Madara," He said as he pulled up a stool next to my bed.

"DAMN IT," I said slamming my fist against the bed. Shikamaru told me about how the five kage formed a shinobi alliance.

"So now that that's done what happened on the night before the summit" He questioned as he glared at me. Damn it I knew he wouldn't forget but I hoped he would. I took in a deep breath knowing that I couldn't lie to him and get away with it.

"Madara came to me and we talked," I said in a low voice. His eyes widened in surprise but he didn't say anything wanting to know the whole story.

"He told me that if I could convince Sasuke that he needed more power then he would bring my father back to me," I said

"And you declined right?" he asked a bit irritated

"Of course not," I said in my defense. He took a deep breath calming down a little

"but... I didn't decline it either" I said softer. Shikamaru gritted he teeth as I braced myself for his comments, but nothing came

"No this is good," He said which shocked me. "Where were you going to meet him once you were done," he asked

"He didn't tell me, he only said I can always find you" I replied.

"Alright, I am going to tell Tsunade about what happened and take about a plan with her until then do not leave this bed even if he comes" Shikimaru ordered. I was too tired to argue or add any more comments. I nodded and lied back down. He walked out of the room leaving me in silence. I dozed off to sleep and woke up in world tinted red.

"I'm surprised that you fulfilled our agreement" I heard someone say as I turned to face them

"Maybe your not as much of a child as I thought you were," Madara said clapping his hands.

"You know the deal where do I meet you" I growled

"No, not yet: He said scolding me like I was a child "You will know when and where," He said as the world began to fade away

"Until then," He said saying goodbye as I shot up in my bed with beads of sweat dripping down my face.

"What is it Naruto" Sakura asked as she rushed over to the bed

"Where are Tsunade and Shikamaru," I asked as I got out of bed

"In her office- you can't leave" she yelled as I put on my jacket and pants. I teleported into Tsunade's office scaring the two of them

"What the hell did I tell you-" Shikamaru began to say but I cut him off

"It's happening tonight," I said, the room fell silent before Tsunade spoke up

"How do you know?" she questioned

"I don't know I just have this feeling," I said not helping their confidence "But I have this image in my head, I'm on top of the stone faces and it's just getting dark," I said describing what I saw in my head

"Get everyone you need Shikamaru and tell them the plan, we end this war tonight," She said as she stood up out of her chair. Shikamaru rushed out of the room as Tsunade walked over to me and healed me more. She began to unwrap my temporary cast off and unwrapped my head. I wiggled my fingers and felt to see if there was a bump on my head.

"Granny," I said quietly. She looked at me with worry in her eyes

"I almost agreed to help him," I said in shame "It was just so tempting wanting to see him again you know," I said as I pushed back my tears. I couldn't stop them once Tsunade came over and hugged me

"I would have done the same for Jiraiya," She said. I hugged her back as I cried into her shoulder. I went back to the hospital for Sakura to run the last minute tests on me, and the next thing I knew it was dusk on the great stone faces. I felt a dark aura appear behind me

"So you came" I mocked as I turned around to see Madara standing there

"Why yes, I am a man of my word," He said as he held a clear orb in his hand. The sun was setting behind my head as I stood there tempted to take the orb.

"So this can bring him back," I asked

"With this, you can make your wildest dreams seem like an inescapable reality. I call it the eye of the moon" He said letting his guard down a bit

"NOW" I yelled as I signaled for everyone to attack. All of the weapons flew right through him as the orb floated into the sky covering the moon from my point of view

"Now sleep and enjoy your dream world Naruto, until the next time we meet," He said as he vanished. I couldn't take my eyes of the orb in the sky that now glowed red and it looked like it had multiple Sharingan tomoe. I felt my eyelids get heavy and I fell to the ground. I woke up in what felt like minutes later on a park bench

"What the hell," I said as I rubbed my eyes. I got up and walked around

'something is off' I thought as I looked up at the stone faces. My jaw dropped once I saw my dads face was no longer carved into the mountain instead there was a man with long hair and carved into his eyes were Sharingan tomoes. I ran home trying to avoid contact with people

'This can't be real' I thought as I ran up to my house. Out of the corner of my eye as I ran up I saw that the Namikaze clan symbol wasn't painted on the wall just the Uzumaki clan symbol. I rushed in taking my shoes off

"Oh, your back already" I heard someone say from the kitchen. I froze in place as I drew out one of my kunai and crept towards the kitchen. I turned the corner and immediately dropped my kunai

"Hey sweety," She said as she stood there in a red apron. I had only seen this woman once that I could remember but how could I forget that red hair

"Mom!?"
