This Isn't Canon! (Or that time I reincarnated into an AU-Naruto)

When one reincarnates into the protagonist there are often two reactions. Glee or overwhelming terror. For her? There was not one shred of fear. After all, of all the Shonen protagonists, there was one above all that could so easily become broken in their setting with just a little effort. Sadly, it appears as if that Golden Thing that she had surprised had already thought of that, and so much more...

Hagoromo Otsutsuki

"It's not my fault! I swear, I just signed my name on the contract and uh.... came here? Y'know!?!?" Naruko wildly flailed her arms around trying to explain what happened.

"In essence, she somehow fucked up old man, and doesn't know how." 

Hagoromo's lips twitched, "Ye should watch your language Kurama. You know better than to curse. My daughter has always been..." He paused staring at her, before sighing. "Indeed, my daughter is quite insane. But are we not all?" He chuckled slightly. "Come children, and sit. Let us discuss thy circumstances." As he said that two stone chairs grew out of the stonework, and a titanic pillow the width of mountains appeared out of thin air.

"Woah. Impressive work. K-chan has been needing a pillow, I think he's sleeping badly - he's always so grumpy, y'know." Titanic shifting could be heard as Kurama slowly positioned himself on the pillow, and Naruko sat down herself.

"You be a thousand years old and some blonde brat split everything that made you up in half." There was a loud groan as he settled into the pillow, causing Hagoromo to nod with a smile as he sat down himself.

"Yes, it was quite rude of you to continue to try to destroy Konohagakure Kurama after you were broken out of that Genjutsu." 'Oh thank Kami, he stopped speaking like that.'

A loud rumbling escaped from Kurama. "Annoying flies were itching me when I woke up. Besides, you be used, abused, and mind-controlled for a hundred years, and see if you were in a forgiving mood." 

Naruko nods. "Yeah! It's perfectly acceptable for Kura-chan to try to destroy Konoha! Don't try to victim blame old man! That's bad or uh, something? I'unno. I'm a punch-talk person, not a moral one."

Hagoromo blinked, before chuckling. "I suppose you'll have to excuse me then. I shouldn't have made light of the situation. Now stepping past that, how about we figure out the situation, and how to get you out of here? After all, a physical body isn't meant to be in the Pure Lands."

Naruko immediately paled, "Oh, I thought this was a different plane or something. I didn't think this was the pure lands! KURA-CHAN WE'RE GONNA DIE!"

"Stop acting brat, we both know you knew this was the pure lands." 

Naruko shrugged. "Alright, fine. Besides I kinda already figured out why this happened. I signed it as Naruko Uzumaki - but that's not true. I don't know what I identify myself as - but it's certainly not Naruko Uzumaki."

Hagoromo hummed. "Yes, you're certainly in a dilemma. Are you Asura? Naruko? Perhaps you are INFERNALSCREECHINGSOUND ? What about your last name? Is it Uzumaki? Namikaze? Otsutsuki? INFERNALSCREECHINGSOUND?"

Naruko nodded along about to speak before Kurama hissed in pain. "Old man! What the hell was that?!?" 

Hagoromo frowned, "Sorry about that Kurama. I forgot that you aren't able to comprehend that language."

"Aah! Don't worry about it Kura-chan, whenever we become connected you'll understand it! You just gotta trust me to use Ninshu, and I don't think you're ready for that." Kurama settled down as Hagoromo nodded.

"Indeed. I could get you out of here - but you'd be stuck in the same problem. So...."

His ringed-black staff gently tapped the ground as his eyes glowed with power. A great rumbling noise was heard as behind him a titanic waterfall, and beneath it, a pond appeared out of nowhere. 'The Creation of All Things...' 

"There already exists a Waterfall of Truth, but this one has been changed for your situation. Go forward, and find your true self." Naruko stared at him for a moment her face blank, before a smile would crack out and she nodded.

"Alright old man."

-Hagoromo-

He stood up as the confused girl stepped onto the pond he made, and with a smile strolled forward towards Kurama. 'Oh child, the hatred within you, the things you've experienced.' "How are you Kurama?" His voice was soft and soothing.

Kurama stared down at him, before, "Tired. I'm tired. I'm tired of being locked away in a prison. I'm tired of not being able to have a life, while humans can do so. I'm tired."

Hagoromo frowned, before reaching up to pat a titanic paw. "I'm sorry. I know it doesn't help, but I am sorry."

A breath ruffled his clothes. "It's not fully your fault Father." Kurama closed his eyes, and for a brief moment, he felt a twinge of disappointment. 'So you do blame me in the end. I understand. This all could have been stopped so long ago... in the end, it is my fault, is it not?' 

-Kurama-

Closing his eyes he would contain the growl that wanted to escape. 'Father... you are just as foolish as always. Do you think I couldn't see through this facade with you standing in front of me? In the end, you still want to hand things off to Asura and Indra. Do you think I didn't sense your chakra tugging on the Summoning? Do you think she didn't? You underestimate her.' Disappointment filled him as he sat there eyes closed. 'You're my father, but in the end, this world is your fault. You could have stopped this all, but you didn't. You could still stop this all NOW. But you won't. Even now Indra's actions still scar you, and yet you still hope he'll come to the light.' 

With that thought Kurama would fall into a light slumber.

-Naruko- 

Her eyes opened as she stepped off the waters of the pond. Her footsteps echoed out as she stepped across the white stone floor. "It's time for you to send us back." Her voice was calm and peaceful as vibrant blue eyes stared directly into glowing purple.

"You've found what you need then?"

"Indeed." She did not expound on the answer she found but simply smiled. Hagoromo sighed but nodded.

"Very well then, until next time." His eyes grew even brighter as the six black balls floating behind him began to rotate slightly, and in the next moment, a poof of smoke signaled Naruko's disappearance.

Finding herself in the training ground once more she'd reach down towards the scroll and make a small adjustment before....

"SUMMONING JUTSU!" she slammed her hands once more on the ground, and a moment later an aged monkey with rippling muscles, white hair, and dark skin appeared. Behind her slow footsteps were heard, but she simply continued to stare. "Enma, it's nice to see you again."

He stared for a moment before a chuckle escaped him. "You as well, you're different." She smiled at that.

"Indeed."

My constant talking to some people delayed this by like four fucking hours. My bad q.q
