Daddy's Little Princess

6 Months ago:

A day just like any other, the sky as blue as ever and the air clean as ever. Naruto as grumpy as ever, glaring at a man in an alleyway.

"You dared to lay your filthy eyes on my child. Tell me what do you have to say about yourself?" Naruto muttered as he glowered at the man who had been staring at his daughter with an inappropriate gaze and having completely wrong thoughts about her.

"I…"

The man couldn't even say anything before Naruto pressed his thumbs in his eyes whole crushing his skull with his hand, "No need to continue, your fate was already settled once you made the sin of l.u.s.ting after my child."

"Naruto, you..." Kurama was about to say that he could have just changed him but withheld his words as he saw the look in Naruto's eyes, they were not eyes of man that would listen.

'I forget sometime that he is not the same Naruto of old. If it was like the past, he would never kill people that he could have rehabilitated but now they even won't survive once they have a single wrong thought about Hima. Technology ain't helping either as so many poor fools showed l.e.w.d d.e.s.i.r.es and died painful deaths as Naruto senses cover the planet and go further.' Kurama thought as he shook his head sadly and went back to roaming Naruto's soul Land, which was a giant dimension with planets and everything except people.

There were places even Kurama didn't dare visit inside Naruto's soul land; it was place devoid of hope and filled with darkness. He had almost died once by going there because of his curiosity and now he avoids it like the plague.

'Filthy sc.u.m always laying their dirty eyes on my child, I feel like I should erase these mortals of the planet.' Naruto thought as he started walking the streets of NY in a relaxed manner as he tried to tone his anger which had come up because of his nightmares and the incident with the sc.u.m

While moving around Naruto saw people turning to look at him like usual but he couldn't anything about it since his powers had grown too much to be contained completely so he leaked out an aura that attracted people towards him.

He ignored the looks and continued his way when he felt something that he shouldn't have, 'A chakra user.'

Naruto turned around and his vision went red with fury, it was an impostor with Gaara's body and chakra.

'How dare he?' Naruto thought as he disappeared from his place and even the boy vanished, and they appeared in a special dimension of Naruto's creation where he held the target by the throat

"Who are you?" Naruto muttered in a suppressed tone as he had difficulty holding back his anger

But the boy couldn't respond as he looked at Naruto in shock and he was having difficulty breathing since Naruto was choking him.

"Naruto that's the real Gaara, don't let your anger cloud your mind." Kurama quickly interfered as he could see Gaara dying

Naruto regained his composure as he looked at Gaara carefully and he let go, "Sorry my friend for the pain I caused you."

Naruto muttered in a gentle tone as a smile adorned his face, it was one of the rare genuine smiles and this one was filled with hope. His eyes shone like they used to and he couldn't stop smiling.

"You are from an alternative world aren't you and from what I got from you is that your world was destroyed but you were given another chance and if you can return it will be back in time before the damage had been done." Naruto said in cheerful tone

"Yes, so you are an older Naruto. What happened to you?" Gaara questioned as he got up. He took everything in stride like usual. He had been working with Zatanna for some time and decided to visit NY when this happened.

'I will have to reschedule the magic show. No, I will just send a clone.' Gaara thought as he didn't want to make his Fiancée Zatanna even a bit annoyed or sad.

"I am the Seventh Hokage and its been more than a decade since we fought that war and unlike yours, we won. But life isn't going to stop at happy endings so everything went to wrong six years ago and now I am here." Naruto replied but didn't go into detail, he was happy to see Gaara but this Gaara wasn't his brother

Naruto connected to the energy that had brought him to this world, a being of power that he wouldn't want to fight if it was not necessary.

"I didn't think you would intervene, Naruto." The voice rang inside his head with a bored tone

"I wouldn't have but I need your help." Naruto replied

"Sigh"

"Why are you sighing?" Naruto questioned as he held back his annoyance

"Why do you even delude yourself so much? You should understand why you never tried to go back and recreate your world; it was because nothing exists in your world anymore. There is neither space nor time to return back to nor a soul to bring back to life. You are powerful and I am even more so but it doesn't mean I will miraculously develop powers to bring beings that don't exist anymore." The voice of the Emperor explained in soft tone as it talked down to one of the beings that could reach its authority of it put in more effort

Naruto's smile froze as the dark pits in his soul erupted turning his eyes into pitch black; "You are lying to me, aren't you?"

Naruto said in a joking tone but he couldn't hold back the whimper from his voice and the tears escaping his eyes.

"There is no way but if you want you can go to an alternative world." The voice replied

"NO, NO, NO, NO" Naruto screamed as the dimension trembled and Gaara would have been erased if he wasn't protected

Gaara felt pain from watching his friend in so much grief but he didn't what to do as he could only see madness in his eyes.

'Don't worry he will come around.'

"Did you not promise Hima, your life?" The voice rang inside the world, dispersing the dark waves of power breaking the dimensional barrier

Naruto froze in place as memories of Hima flashed by and he slowly regained himself, he was ashamed of his loss of control and stupidity. When he should already know why he mourned their deaths, it was because they didn't exist anymore.

"I apologize for my childish outburst and thank you for being patient with me. I am very happy to see you Gaara and hope you will bring your world to a happy end." Naruto muttered as he willed Gaara to return to his world while allowing him to take Zatanna with him and allowing her to return alone when she wants.

"I was watching that show." The voice complained as Gaara disappeared

But Naruto respond to him and was about to walk away.

"If you want company, you can always come up here. I don't mind your presence now since you seem to have become better."

"I will see." Naruto replied as he exited the place while destroying it as he didn't wish to leave signs of dark energy out in the world

The encounter had helped grow stronger mentally and emotionally while also increasing his obsessiveness with Hima.

It had broken him and he had zero hope left for the past but it also paved the path to a future where he may be able to move on and not think of bringing back the dead.

--------------------------------

A.N Hope you enjoyed. I don't know why i did this when i could have just written the next chapter. I guess it was stuck to my mind for some time.

This is an alternative end to Sand Monarch

Explanation:

This chapter shows how protective he is of Hima.

It shows that he has abilities to control time and even bring back people, this would be shown later.

It shows that Naruto doesn't consider parallel universes an option.

It shows that he did have some hope deep inside that everything could go back to how it was.

It shows that it is impossible to bring back anything since it doesnt exist.

Emperor is just another Naruto from another one of my stroies and he is mentioned/appears in Kuro no maou and unlimited love.

This event is one that helped him completely focus on Hima down to his subconsciousness and. Destroy the relics of the past in one of the previous chapters.

This is an alternative chapter since it is here to end the story of the Sand Monarch.

There are countless beings stronger than this Naruto, he isn't invincible. But dont worry hardly any of them will be mentioned unless they are important to the plot.

Emperor played his part of showing him his deluded self and won't appear later unless i want this story to go into one of those dimensional wars or the crisis.
