The Gift of the Moon [Naruto]

The sequel.

"So you've been the one collecting the bounties on my member's heads" was the first thing that Pain said, as he slipped into my room "That can't be right, you can only be ten years old?"

"Eleven, thank you very much. And you can't really fault me, you might have kept it a secret from them but we both know that the bijuu are not dead and I simply cannot let you go hunt them down as you wish" I replied "And it's quite impolite to barge into a ladies room like that"

"How do you know that?" he demanded, rinnegan flashing dangerously.

"How did I know that? Well, I can show you how" I said, smiling slyly.

Before neither of them could blink I grabbed Pain's head, knowing that Pain and Nagato were connected by the path of six sages, I forced him into my mental plane and showed him his future in the previous timeline. Not soon afterwards Konan and me against the wall with his chacra induced papers, while she tended to her friend worriedly.

"Pain! Are you ok?" she asked concerned, when the only thing her companion did was groan in pain, she turned towards me and glared angrily "What have you done?!"

"Showed him his death" I replied simply, not a bit worried about my precarious position "Nagato you once said that the sequel always is less popular than the first or third book, that it's a failure. I disagree, you weren't a failure. Yes, you lost someone precious to you, we all do, but you made him proud. Amegakure raised from the ashes of a fallen village into a beautiful phoenix, you made that. You can stop all this nonsense now and focus on what is important, you village. Aren't you a kage? Also, focus on your health a bit. None of us want you to become a sack of bones again"

"What nonsense are you talking?!" Konan spat furiously "Take him out of whatever jutsu you've placed on him or you'll die!" she threatened me.

"Konan stop" Nagato spoke, through Pain's lips "Naruto, it's good to see you again... though you've changed quite a lot"

"Don't I know it" I replied, smiling relieved, Nagato was back. I was also glad of not being choked by paper anymore.

"Konan please leave" he asked her "Trust me" he cut her off when he saw her about to protests. Grudgingly she obeyed, not before sending me a nasty glare "I will put my agenda back in order, don't worry. But I don't believe you crafted this situation simply for this. What do you need from me?"

"Well, Kirigakure is a bit weak right now and having a treaty with you will help them quite a lot. And it will help you too as well. You guys are strong but very closed off, you isolated yourself and it's time now to open up. The Mizukage is also back from the future and aware of our conversation" I began.

"It's a good idea and you are right" he conceded "Though, you are also going to ask me to send Itachi and Zetsu after Orochimaru, aren't you?" he inquired.

"I am that obvious? But yes, he needs to go. But he is very slippery, I have no idea where the heck he is hiding. Kabuto too. And we need Itachi distracted from you, he can't notice all these changes and notify Konoha. While they are at that you need to find proof of Danzo's treachery. How he completed with the previous Amekage against the Hokage. Treachery during war is punished by death, that way he is completely gone and the elders power with him- because I am sure they knew about it" I told him.

"I can do that. I can even tell Itachi that I planning on sending him to kill Danzo, as retribution of assassinating my best friend and making Amegakure suffer. That way the Hokage will finally find out about Danzo's treason and do the dirty job for me. Itachi can even return to Konoha as a hero and maybe we get an alliance out of it" Nagato thought out loud "Something else?"

"Yes, here" I handed him a scroll "Inside there is Obito's eye, Itachi already has his cousin's eye and with this one he can finally have a full eye surgery to stop his blindness and sickness. Say that you killed the bounty hunter after you guys and got this as a present for him... to congratulate him for his loyalty, or something like that"

"Smart. No one will be looking for you anymore that way" Nagato took the scroll.

"I do have to cover all my basis" I replied "Also here is the name of Sasuke's team while he was away from Konoha, they must already be at Orochimaru's laboratory. If you can save them I will really thank you. Karin is an Uzumaki, like you and me. Our village fell during the Second Shinobi War but Amegakure can be our clan's new home. You can repopulate it there... and I'm sure Konan will love helping you out with that" I added, with a sly smirk- snickering at his blushing cheeks.

"Shut it!" he snapped at me "By the way Naruto, what do I call you now? After all, Naruto Uzumaki died in a fire one year ago"

"Yue, you can call me Kaguya Yue"
