"I thought I told you to stay alive..."

'Sorry. I guess fate had other plans.'

'As long as you're ready, you can cross the border any time...'

Who will you go with?

Itachi:

"Are you sure? Once you cross you'll never be able to go back." Itachi said to you.

"I understand. I also understand that everyone else will probably be upset over me, but..." You stopped.

"But...?" Itachi continued.

"But as long as I'm able to watch over them and protect them spiritually then I'm fine. Besides, I want to catch up with you." You decided with a large smile. He looked at you before extending his arm towards you, offering his hand.

"Then come, Y/n." He said. (Definitely no innuendos there.) You slowly reached out your hand and placed it in his slightly larger one. He pulled you over to him where your body became transparent like his. You looked down below you and saw your body lying where you last remember passing out.

"Are you alright?" Itachi asked you. You looked up at him and smiled.

"Yeah. I am." You replied. He gripped your hand, squeezing it in his before leading you into a bright light.

'I'll miss all of you. But remember I'll be watching you all, and I'll protect you.'

'But we want you here with us...'

Deidara:

"Oi, are you sure? You don't have to stay here. You're on the border, hm." He said to you. You thought for a second, seriously contemplating on what to do.

"To be honest, I understand all my friends will miss me, but they have each other. If I go back, you'll be alone for all eternity. I don't want you to be alone." You finalized.

"Are you sure? Hm." Deidara asked once again. You nodded confidently.

"Yes. I am." You replied. He smiled a tiny bit before reaching out towards you and grabbing each of your wrists, pulling you into him and placing his lips on yours as you became transparent. You eagerly returned the kiss and allowed the white light to consume both of your figures.

'I'll miss you all, but I'll soon be nothing but a distance memory.'

'You're everything to us...'

Hidan:

"Tch. Don't be an idiot and think about the consequences." He said, annoyed.

"I know that, dumbass!" You replied.

"Don't yell at me, you little shit!" He exclaimed with an irk mark on his head.

"Well sweet jolly fucking ranchers! I bet your mom wishes she had swallowed you!!" You challenged, stepping closer to the line between life and death.

"Huh?! Are you sassing me?!" He snarled, stepping closer as well.

"Why you little piece of—!!!!"

...

...

...

"Dumbass, you stepped over the border." Hidan facepalmed.

"Shut up!! It's not my fault!" You blamed him.

"Huh?! It's your own fucking fault!" He shouted while leaning closer to your face.

"Well maybe I wanted to step over the border, shit face!!" You screamed while placing your face right in front of his so that your noses were touching. An obvious blush painted his cheeks.

"S-shut up..." He slightly grumbled. You moved away and rolled your eyes.

"Let's go, shit face." You said while walking past him.

"O-oi! Wait up dammit!"

'You're all amazing people. Don't waste any tears because someone like me died. It was gonna happen sooner or later.'

'How can we not cry over you when you cried over us?'

Sasori:

"You're a smart girl. Don't make the wrong decision." Sasori said, completely void of emotion. Your brows furrowed before you confidently stepped over the border towards him and slight tapped his cheek with your hand. His eyes slightly widened. Anyone would of pick life over death any day.

"I chose to come to this side. I chose death for the sheer fact that I don't want to leave you alone. As much as you may not realize, you and I, although we haven't known each other a long time, won't be alone anymore." You said seriously, causing his eyes to widen even more.

"In that case." He started, grasping your hands in his.

"Let's go on. Together." He said as a bright white light engulfed you two.

'Please remember it doesn't matter where I am, just know I'll always watch you. Protect you. And care for you.'

'But we want you here. With us.'

Nagato:

"Please consider your choices carefully." Nagato said, examining you with his Rinnegan eyes.

"I don't need to consider my choices. If I make a decision, I refuse to regret it. That's my choice." You said as you stepped one foot over the border, causing your leg to become transparent.

"If it weren't for Naruto, you'd still be in the dark. Wanting peace even though you destroyed an entire village. Standing alone in the dark with no exit, no light. Do I really want to leave someone like that?" You asked as you moved your other foot over the border. Your body became see through as you walked up to him.

"I don't want to leave anyone like that." You said as you bent his head down to your level.

"With your permission, will you allow me to at least help you?" You asked with a cheeky smile.

"I have no choice now, do I?" He asked with a small smile. White light started to blind you, but you two paid no mind to that and just stared at each other.

'I'll always be apart of you all. Just try not to have kids too soon, alright?'

'But it's not the same if it's not with you...'

Obito:

"Obito?! The fuck you doin here?" You exclaimed, staring the Uchiha in shock.

"Things happened, and I ended up here." He briefly replied. You slightly pouted.

"How're the others?" You asked.

"They're fine, but Madara was able to cast the Infinite Tsukiyomi." He replied. Your eyes widened.

"What?!" You exclaimed.

"Don't worry. Kakashi and the others are handling it." He quickly said. Your brows furrowed in deep thought.

"You seem... different..." You said as you leaned closer to the border.

"Did you switch your shampoo?"

*facepalm*

"No, I just... realized some things." He explained.

"Well it's about damn time. You have absolutely no idea how much I wanted to tell you off. But anyways, I'm glad you've changed. Though I'll always favor your Tobi personality." You said with a sheepish smile. He smiled as well and held his hand out.

"Will you come with me? I'll explain everything. My past, my self, everything you want to know." He asked. You stared at him before slowly reaching out and putting your hand in his. You smiled as he slowly pulled you over to his side.

"Let's go. Maybe we'll be able to see Rin." You said, causing his eyes to go wide. You grabbed his wrist and pulled him behind you into the white light.

'I'm sorry everyone. I let you all down, but you all have futures. Unfortunately, I don't have a future, just an eternity.'

'But we want to spend our future with you...'

Hisoka:

"Y/n!?" He called out.

"Yo!" You replied while doing a peace sign.

"Why are you here?!" He asked. You shrugged.

"Dunno. I guess I died sealing old man Hachi." You replied. He slowly reached out towards you and gently cupped your cheek with his hand.

"I heard you. You said you loved me too. Did you really mean that? Or did you just say that...?" He asked quietly.

"Huh? I mean... I did, but... I wasn't sure if you heard it or not..." You replied just as quietly. Just as Hisoka was about to drop his arm from your face, you shot up your arm and placed his hand back on your cheek.

"Hisoka. I misunderstood you." You started.

"I automatically assumed you just went along with it without a second thought, but I never considered that you didn't have a choice. So, on my part, I'm sorry, for not waiting to hear your explanation." You said sincerely. He stared at you slightly shocked before chuckling.

"You..." He started, reaching out towards you.

"— have nothing to apologize for." He said as he wrapped his arms around your neck in an embrace. You wrapped your arms up and around his torso.

(Like dat^^)

"There's no need to decided whether or not to choose death. Because as long as I'm with you, I'll always be happy." You said as both of bodies were surrounded by white light.

'I'm sorry guys, I just can't love you. At least, not now.'

'That's not fair though... we love you...'

The truth is people cling onto life. Because life if a beautiful lie and death is a painful truth.

(And just to give you guys some reference, here's a pic of what Hisoka looks like now:

(Haaawt)

Anyways guys, I'm not doing Kisame or Kakuzu. You'll be more like sister and brother.

Ja ne!
