"M-Minato..?" I whispered looking up at the man.

"You look different, Akiara. Older." He smiled before turning back to Obito.

"She was like your sister, Kakashi was your comrade and Rin loved you. Rin loved kakashi and what would she say if she saw this?" Minato said.

"She would hate Kakashi for killing her!"

"No she wouldn't have!" I yelled at him. "She would've said sorry for putting you two in that sort of pain! She would say sorry to Kakashi for making him kill her! You don't know anything!" I yelled, centimetres away from his face.

"You, are the worst man I've ever met." I spat before walking away, letting the others deal with the man.

"The ten tails is making more monsters! Get ready!"

I looked around and saw the dead bodies and the tired shinobi. None of them could carry another attack, I transformed into my blood siren state, quickly killing the monsters. Waiting for the next wave.

I looked behind me to see Naruto being healed my Sakura. His body greatly injured while fighting.

I kept fighting off the ones that appeared, letting everyone heal up.

I wasn't getting tired or anything but I was distracted when I saw Sasuke.

Itachi walked beside me.

"He's here." He said looking at his little brother.

"Has he gotten stronger?"

"Significantly."

"That's good, now help me fend these demons off."

----------

The war felt short and long. We were always fighting, tired of it but the constant action made time fly pass us.

I stood back, letting myself rest as team seven took on Madara.

Though, when he transformed into someone else I wanted in on the action.

The Hokage's stepped aside as I walked up.

"YOU." She said pointing at me. "YOU ARE NOT HUMAN, WHAT ARE YOU."

"I am human." I said puzzled.

"YOU HAVE NO CHAKRA. NO WAY SOMEONE COULD KILL YOU."

"I am the descendent of the celestial goddess. You shouldn't be here."

"I AM IMMORTAL, THE CREATOR OF CHAKRA. SOMEONE LIKE YOU DONT GET TO TALK TO ME LIKE THAT."

"I am and I will."

"COME. LET US NOT FIGHT IN THIS WORLD I CREATED."

"Woah-"

We got transported somewhere else, I looked around unable to move. I saw her about to touch Naruto and what I presumed to take his chakra.

"No!" I yelled, lighting striking her hand. I looked at myself, my hands sparking with lighting chakra.

"Kakashi..? I think I unlocked every chakra nature.." I said. His eyes widened seeing my hands illuminate with all chakra natures.

"That's impossible!" The god yelled rushing towards me, my eyes widened as she lifted me up, her hands drawing my chakra away from me.

"AKIARA!" I heard before I fell in the floor unconscious.

--------

As I woke up, I looked around. The room oddly familiar.

I turned my head to see me in a hospital room.

"Akiara." I heard. I looked over to my left seeing Kakashi.

"What happened?!" I said sitting up.

"Hey, don't worry." He said softly. "You helped save everyone, the helped stop the war."

"What..? How-"

"After you fell unconscious, something rose out of you. It told us that she was the celestial goddess and she gave Sasuke and naruto his power to defeat Kaguya."

"If that's the news, why do you look so sad." I said almost fearfully. "Did they-"

"No. No. They're fine. It's us."

"What about us?" I whispered.

"I don't think.. I don't think we should do this." My heart stopped.

"The war just ended and you want to end us?" I said, sitting up.

"We keep ending up in hospitals, in comas fearing that one of us might never wake up. It's not healthy and.. maybe it'd be better if we weren't together."

"Do you realize what you're saying?" I said getting angry.

"Yes, I do! I'm saving you the heartache of me dying and I'm saving myself the pain of seeing you almost die."

"No." I scoff. "You're saving yourself. You're scared." I spat. He stood up.

"I'm the sixth hokage. I tried to make this easy but clearly, you don't care. So here it is, the truth. The village, the needs of it outweigh you. If I'm going to be hokage, I'm going to need to cut out everything that distracts me from it. That's you." My heart broke, this time. It felt like it really was the end.

And I had to accept it.

"Fine." I said, swallowing a lump in my throat. "Leave."

As he walked out, I stopped him.

"When I talked to Obito. He said you were selfish and I defended you. And I told him he was the worst man I've ever Met. Now I regret that because that's the last thing I ever said to him. Now, I get where he was coming from. You are selfish, using the village as an excuse to end us, when you're the one who's scared. You are the worst man I've ever met. I can't believe I wasted 6 years of my life with you." As the words left my lips, he walked out slamming the door shut.

Leaving me, my anger, sadness and pain to deal with it's self.
