(long chappie!!!!)
Kushina took in a breathe and looked around. She didn't recognize where she was. She noticed the ninja around her she recongize Sasuke and then Sakura. She saw Jirayah and once she saw Minato she smiled happily. Minato smiled at her and walked to her and pulled her into a hug.
"It seems were alive again." Minato looked at Kaguya and smiled warmly.
She smiled back shakily. Kushina nodded and just held him, she enjoyed his warm hug. His aura. Him in general. She missed this. Hugging his live body. They were still just reunited about fifteen minutes ago.
Naruto growled and his body left Kaguya's, leaving her weakened state on the ground. The sage of six paths formed and Naruto and Sasuke spoke with him. He then began to seal her away. This grabbed Kushina's attention.
Not the forming moon...
Not the other people...
Not the fact that she was in another dimension.
Just her son's voice.
She looked at him and she began to walk forwards towards him. Minato followed close beside her sense he knew what she did to him during his childhood and even throughout part of his teen life. They made their way over and Kushina set s hand on Naruto's shoulder.
Kakashi turned his attention from Jirayah and saw her and his eyes shot open. He walked towards them and he had a hand in his weapon pouch, gripping a Kunai. This bloodlust he seemed from Kakashi made his turn and shake his head no and mouth the words
'don't even think about it pal'
"Naruto..." Kushina spoke.
Naruto went tense at her name but tried his best to calm down. Sasuke turned around and eyed her with a cold stare. He looked at Kakashi who walked up to Naruto and stood at his side. He then looked at Minato and Minato seemed a little tense himself.
"Y-yes?" Naruto spoke with a shaky tone.
"...." She looked down and her grip tightened on his shoulder." W-why?" She teared up. "Why did you think I deserved to be brought back?"
"Because. N-no matter what you did I forgive you. Y-you were in p-pain. So i-i wanted y-you and D-Dad to be happy." He spoke, stuttering because of his huge nervousness.
"You made me and him, so proud." She pulled him into a tight hug.
*****
Your dad must be as proud as I am." She teared up.
********
He remembered when she said this. Way back after he came home with a ninja headband. He looked at her and he shakily hugged back but it was weak. He knew she was basically bipolar. He knew she probably still has an issue with him because of Kurama...dear God...
What if she finds out I have all the tailed beasts!?
Holy shit! Please have mercy on my soul!
Naruto thought quietly inside his head, but his eyes screamed his words. He shuddered at the thought of her hard fist punching his stomach. He then pulled apart and knew he had to release the tailed beasts soon. They we're probably wanting to be free.
" Kurama smiled.
"You sure?" Naruto questioned.
" Kurama smiled gently.
"Please don't call me that." Naruto frowned.
"Kurama chuckled.
Naruto held a hand to his stomach and loosened the seal and bit his thumb.
"SUMONNING JUTSU!" Naruto shouted and slammed his hand into the ground.
The tailed beasts formed and they roared and stretched. The dimension returned to earth and the sun was just rising. They breathed in fresh air. They then looked at Naruto and bowed with a thank you and began to run off to different sections of the land. Meanwhile Shukaku stayed and waited for Gaara to be woken.

Sasuke walked to Naruto and nodded. Naruto and Sasuke held their hands together and with a combined Justu they freed everyone from the Genjutsu and they began to wake. Kushina watched the tailed beasts and she frowned gently, not seeing the nine tails she knew he was still within Naruto. She looked at Naruto with mixed emotions of love and hate, regret and disgust. Minato patted Kushina's shoulder and walked over to Naruto. Naruto looked at him and he felt tears prick in the corners of his eyes. He ran to Minato and tackle hug him. Kushina almost attacked Naruto for this but calmed down, knowing it was just a hug.
"I WAS SO SCARED! IM SO SORRY! I COULDN'T STOP HER FROM KILLING YOU!" He cried loudly into Minato's chest, hugging him tightly.
"It's alright. You did all that you could." He rubbed his back.
"..." Naruto slowly called down and he pulled away and Minato sat up. "I'm standing now." Naruto stood, feeling scared.
He felt Kushina's eyes on him, the whole time he was crying to his dad his mother had eyed him, like he could lunge at any second. She helped Minato stand and she held onto his arm and relaxed her nerves.
Naruto walked towards Kakashi and he smiled widely. Kakashi smiled calmly and he hugged Naruto tightly and breathed shakily.
"I'm so glad your okay." Kakashi spoke softly.
"I'm so happy everything is returning to normal." Naruto mumbled.
"No kidding." Kakashi chuckled.
They pulled apart and smiled at one another. Kakashi noticed how tired and exhausted Naruto looked and grew a little concerned.
"Naruto you look awful." He frowned.
"..." Naruto's smile wavered but stuck. "I'm fine Kakashi I'm just tired." Naruto stated. "I used a lot of Chakra to summon those tailed beasts and to free everyone from the giant Tsukuyomi."
"I hope that's it." He huffed.
Naruto nodded but he knew he was way more then just tired. His mind was screaming and nothing but violence and blood was on. His mind. He was honestly very freaked out still about what happened. He felt scared about his mom seemed to still have her threatening aura, dispite her Bing with Minato. His chakra was very low and it was starting to affect his vision, it blurring constantly. And then there was his body. His body was under stress for the whole time he was possessed. His body had held very heavy chakra within it for a long time and he had a few broken bones and stretched muscles from that black orb. And he was uneasy and sick feeling.
Naruto walked past Kakashi and towards the Kage, who were talking with Sakura and Sasuke. He walked across some of the battlefield and his knee gave out and he almost tripped but he forced himself upright and walked over.
"Hey Granny." Naruto waved at Tsunade weakly.
"AH! There he is!" She smiled widely and embraced him tightly. "Sasuke and Sakura just filled me in. I'm so sorry you went through that. And we all owe you and Sasuke for saving us all." She smiled wider, grinning like an idiot.
"I-i didn't do much." Naruto scratched the back of his neck after he was let go. "I sorta unleashed hell. Got possessed, and unleashed more." He spoke. "A-and Sasuke saved me."
"Nonsense! You couldn't help most of that!" She spoke. "Your a hero." She gave a thumbs up.
"Yeah, you saved the world kid. Be proud." The Tsuchikage hummed.

"Good work Uzumaki and Uchiha." The Rikage spoke.
The mistukage just smiled and nodded. She got attention from other mist ninja and they spoke. Gaara walked up to Naruto and held up a fist. Naruto smiled widely and bumped it. He then noticed Shukaku was gone and raised a brow at Gaara.
"Yup." Was all Gaara spoke.
"You guys are an amazing pair. Smart choice." Naruto chuckled happily.
"Yeah." He nodded. "Thanks for everything." Gaara hummed.
"Don't mention it." Naruto was happy.
"Hey, you look awful." Sakura frowned and walked to Naruto's side and looked at his posture. "Naruto are you alright?" She asked in a concerning tone.
"Just tired." Naruto replied.
"Jesus." Tsunade noticed. "You look like you have seen hell. I don't think your just tired." She spoke.
"Seriously. I'm fine." Naruto took a step back.
"Don't push yourself alright? You don't need to pretend to be alright to stay strong. It's already to lean on others." Sakura stated.
"I know. But I can manage myself. I used up quite the amount of chakra so I'm pretty sure I'm ready to sleep on a nice bed." He spoke.
"We should start to head home." Gaara spoke up.
"I was just discussing this with my others." Mitsukage spoke softly." I'm gathering my village ninja together.
"We will do the same." The others spoke.
"I got it." Naruto hummed.
He summoned Kurama. Kurama roared loudly and grabbed everyone's attention. Kushina nearly screamed and she hid behind Minato, shaking in fear and the want to kill it.
" Kurama spoke loudly. "He smiled softly.
Everyone cheered and hugged one another, others crying and most started to head towards their village. Kurama returned into Naruto and fell asleep, him completely exhausted as well. Naruto walked back over to Kakashi with Sakura and Sasuke at his sides. Behind him was Tsunade and Jirayah speaking to one another. Orochimaru walked up and spoke to them and they all began to catch up with one another. Kakashi joined the group and they all began to walk, and of course Minato and Kushina caught up to them. Things seemed almost like a dream.
"Hah! Remember when Naruto's house burned down and everyone kept tackling Naruto?" Jirayah chuckled.
"Oh my God." Naruto smiled widely. "That was funny."
"Heh." Sasuke smirked.
"Hnhnhn." Sakura giggled quietly.
"Oh? How about the time when we acted and pretended to be over dramatic?" Naruto grinned.
"Solid acting." Sakura set her hands on her hips. "IS THE KEY TO GREATNESS!" She boomed proudly.
"Oh but there is no way you can be as great as the one to save Naruto from the clutches of Kaguya!" Sasuke held up a fist with a wide smirking grin.
"Hahaha." Jirayah laughed.
"Twas I! WHO BROUGHT BACK MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS! IM A LEGEND!" Naruto chanted out.
"You try to out do my I may punch you. Don't forget I can shred the ground in a single punch." Sakura punched her fist into her hand.
"But I can control you with my Sharingan and my renegan!" Sasuke cackled. "Hahaha!"
"Guys. Guys." Naruto formed his ears and tail."I'm the cutest. I'll be the most popular~" he purred. "I'll be remembered more."
"Hah, you're nothing but a furry wanna be." Sasuke huffed playfully.
"Your an emo gothic wanna be. But you can not help that inner teen in ya." Naruto told back.
"What is even happening?" Orochimaru raised a brow.
"It's amusing. That's all that I care about." Tsunade laughed.
Kakashi blushed at the sight of the fox ears and tail and he chuckled as his mind went else where. Minato walked to him and shook his head no. Kakashi blushed worse and looked away. Jirayah laughed at the funny expression and joked about him being a tomato baby. Kushina spoke with Tsunade and Jirayah. She laughed loudly at the stories they were telling her and the joking, having a good time with old friends.
Naruto's ears flattened. His tail hardly swayed as he walked forwards, slowly falling to the back of the group, walking behind them all. His eyes turned dull and his vision blurred and his body went numb. He walked forwards with no feeling. He just moved. His eyes were on them. And then on his mom. He shook and he felt fear boil and his eyes remained dull. His heart quickened. He then thought of him in the prison and gently moved a hand over his mouth and another on his stomach gently. His mind rolled around until it just landed on one topic. His eyes slowly widened as he walked. He felt his mind in s thin thread that was burning.
He looked at his friends having a fun time. He gagged and gripped his stomach. An image of Kaguya's calm smirk flashed in his brain and he started trembling as he walked. Then that smirk changed from belonging to her, to the villagers of the leaf. Then it changed to belonging to his mom. Her wicked smirk of murderous intentions. Then to Kurama's when he wanted to kill him. To the ten tails... Orochimaru...sasuke...then to Itachi's.
That sick smirk of lust and violence.
The one he, himself ended up wearing.
That smirk seemed to love finding it's way to him. It seemed to be reaching in his life. He worried. He stressed and he ached. He felt his vision stop and all he saw was him, tied up, in Itachi's possession. Then in chains, within his mother's grasp. Then in the ten tails Genjutsu. To Orochimaru's Curse mark. In the custody of Pain as he self sacrificed. In Kurama's chakra, stuck as the four tailed state went crazy on others. In that orb with Kaguya...
He felt his knees give out and he collapsed onto the ground. Everyone turned around and gasped and ran over. Kushina was calm about it but the others flipped.
"NARUTO!? Naruto what's wrong!?" Kakashi looked worried.
Naruto shook, unable to see. He felt his body go numb again and he cried and his eye had a crazy and broken glint in them.
"I-it hurts...m-make it stop..." Naruto mumbled.
Kakashi pulled him into a tight hug but Naruto was just limp. Minato looked him in the eye.
"Oh my God..." Minato frowned. "Naruto why didn't you just tell me..."
"I-it... wouldn't...be right.....to ruin...fun..." He cried.
"Minato what's wrong with him?" Sakura asked.
Tsunade funneled chakra to see what was wrong and she gasped. "Naruto...this is seriously a problem. Why did you do this to yourself!?"
"What's wrong with him!?" Jirayah and Sasuke snapped almost.
Kakashi just held him, knowing exactly what it was. He just rubbed his back with caution and carefulness.
"Tsunsde!?" Sasuke growled.
"..." She looked at him. "His body...he..." She sighed. "Naruto broke his back. He has multiple broken bones...but that's all minor compared to what happened." She spoke.
"..." Minato looked at his face and shook. "You didn't have to push yourself so hard."
Naruto's condition was very life threatening....
When he pulled out of Kaguya he failed to speak of the consequences of it. And what had happened when he yanked away from her.
Now...his life was on the line
And his days are limited unless they give him treatment. The treatment is also awful. Because it drives them insane. The treatment...includes him dying...and coming back from hell itself. And it fails half the time. Because the way it works.
Naruto will need a very dangerous method of recovery...
Because when he escaped Kaguya,
his soul was torn in half.
