Disclaimer : I do not own Naruto

Summary : Naruto wished he listened to the Paths and Rikudō when they told him not to enter the forest. Now he was stuck in another world, playing a game with a girl with power comparable to a God. He sighed, "...what did I do to deserve this?"

This chapter has yet to be Beta'd.

Samsara: Game of The Gods

Chapter 1 The Game

The God roared as It was pulled to the sky.

"We Will Not Die! We Will Not Accept This!" It shouted.

"Give up, We have won. Zoka Sanshin: Yomi!" the Traitor shouted.

As chains began to cover It, It roared and with the last of It's energy, It sent one of It's tail away.

"Our Other! Avenge Us!" it shouted as the chain safely locked It in a massive sphere.

The tails appeared and slammed into a forest.

Then it began to transform, slowly forming a little girl looked to be about ten. She had long white hair and one visible red eye.

She blinked as She looked around. "...?" She did not know how to speak, She did not remember how.

Then when She saw a sphere moving through the sky, She remembered.

"We are God. We were killed by that Mortal God again."

Why was She killed? What were They doing again?

"The Mortal God said that He won. Were We playing a game?"

"A Game?" She thought for a moment.

Yeah, They were playing a Game.

That Mortal God was supposed to be Her Servant. He was supposed to bring Her toys. But He took a liking with one of the toy and fought with Her.

"Toy, bad!" She came into conclusion. If a toy could turn Her Servant against her, then She doesn't want a toy anymore.

Then He came to Her home and played with Her.

He beat Her in the Game and She was locked away.

"We don't want to be locked away..." She muttered. Her Servant was mean.

But that couldn't be it. She won't make a meanie Her Servant, right? That means, the Mortal God must be a good guy.

"...it's the toys fault for taking Him away," She came into conclusion. She nodded, that must be right.

That's true. In Their second game, He protected many toys from Her Game.

Then They played again. She lost again but She gave birth to Her and ask Her to avenge Her.

"What does avenge means?" She tilted Her in confusion.

She remembered it as 'paying back' for something.

"So, We ask Us to win a Game?" She asked Herself.

That seems to be correct but not all of it. What else could the Other Her want?

"She want Us to get Mortal God back?" that might be it. She wanted Her to save the Mortal God from the toys.

"But how?" She began to pout as She thought for a moment.

Then She knew the answer. "Maybe We can play somewhere where the toys are good?"

With that in mind, she began her journey to find the Mortal God.

Uzumaki Naruto walked towards the forest.

"...in the end, I decided to come here," he commented.

'You know Tendō, when we gave an advice, we expect you to follow it,' Gedō commented.

Naruto sighed, "I cannot help it. The presence feels too similar with the One Eyed God. I am curious."

'Just be careful, okay? Our Eyes haven't recovered yet.'

That is true. Six of the Nine tomoe had returned but he still lacked the Highest Ones.

"...still nine months away from now, huh?" Naruto sighed as he entered the forest.

Naruto blinked when he sensed the presence near him.

"...I do not see anything around," he commented as he looked around him.

"Ah! It's the Mortal God!" he heard a voice and turned towards the sky.

He saw a little girl with white hair jumping from a tree branch towards him.

Scratch that, a naked little girl jumping towards him.

Still stunned, Naruto reflexively caught her.

"Yay! Mortal God is a good guy after all!" the girl giggled as she shouted.

"...who are you?" Naruto asked as he looked away from the girl, trying to avoid looking at her naked body. "Why are you calling me that?"

Then she thought, "...umm, We are... Who are We? We don't have name, We think," she said while tilting her head to the side. "We call You Mortal God because You are Mortal God!" she told him happily.

Naruto blinked, "You have no name? You do not wear clothes too. Maybe you are an orphan but that does not explain why you are calling me Mortal God."

The girl ignored his words, "Mortal God, do You know Our name?" she asked.

Naruto shook his head, "...I do not. I do not believe I have met you before."

She laughed, "what do You mean, Mortal God? You met Us before. This is Our fifth meeting! The first time is when We made You Our Servant, the second when a toy took You away from Us, the third when We played the first time and the fourth is Our second Game! We are born then, You know."

"...fifth? Servant..." Naruto's Eyes widened realizing who is in his hands. "...Hitotsu-no-Kami?" Naruto asked.

She thought for a moment, "that's what You usually call Us! That's not Our name!"

'Tendō! Her Eyes!' Gedō shouted, her voice full of panic.

Naruto turned towards the girl and for the first time, he saw her Eyes.

The White Eyes of God met the Red Eyes of God.

Naruto froze.

"Hey, Mortal God why are You staring at Us?"

Her Servant said nothing, merely staring at the space where She used to stand.

She pouted, Her Servant is a meanie again!

This must be because of the evil toys.

"We will save You, Mortal God!" Her eyes began to glow.

Then the playground disappeared. Time and Space bent to Her Will and They reached a new playground.

Naruto snapped out of his shock when the girl's Eyes began to glow.

He summoned his chakra in preparation for a fight but all he saw was the world disappearing and reappearing again.

"...what did you do?" Naruto asked her.

She grinned, "We saved You away from the evil toys, Mortal God!"

"...evil toys?" the toys meant humans. Evil? What does the girl mean?

"Yeah, they took You away from Us. So they must be evil!"

Naruto blinked at the logic. Apparently she believed that humans are evil. Then she took him away from the other humans.

"...but, I still sense their chakra." No wait, now that he thought about it, he did not sense Itachi-sama in the Hokage Tower. He did not sense his mother and Fū. Most importantly, he did not sense Yuya.

"Where did they go?!" Naruto shouted as he grabbed the girl's neck.

The girl laughed happily, "do You want to play again so soon, Mortal God?"

'Tendō be careful!' Gedō advised him when she felt the girl's chakra rising.

Naruto froze. To this girl, playing meant fighting and he knew that if he fought the girl now, he could be defeated.

Against this monster in front of him, defeat meant death.

He released his grip, "...let me ask again. Where are we? Where did the people go?"

The girl smiled, "We are in a new place! We are in a playground where the toys aren't bad!"

"...playground where the toys are not bad?" Naruto tried to translate that sentence. "...are we in another world?"

While to most people that would sound unbelievable, he knew that it was an easy task for the Hitotsu-no-Kami. Even Amatsu-Mikaboshi is a gateway between worlds.

The question was, How could he return?

Then the girl grinned, "Mortal God, let's play another Game! If We win, You'll be Our Servant again!" she declared.

Being the God's servant again? Naruto wished he could shout at the girl but he knew that would be counterproductive. Naruto frowned, "and if I win?" at least he should be able to make a condition where he could return if he won.

The girl thought for a moment, "how about We be Your Servant?" she nodded to herself. "That's fair, right?"

Naruto sighed, he doubted he could change the girl mind. However, fighting might result in his defeat and he could not return to his world. At least, not without the girl's help.

If he won, then the girl would be his servant and so, he could command her to return him to his world. He thought about Tayuya and his mother.

...the problem is, could he win? Three months had passed since he fought Ama-no-Hitotsu-no-Kami. Six of the Nine had returned but the Highest Ones had not.

'...if I lose the 'game' as she put it, I will not be able to return back home.'

"Patience is a virtue, Naruto-kun," Itachi told him once.

Risking his fate simply because he was impatient would not do. No other choice then.

"...alright, We will fight in nine months," Naruto declared.

The girl blinked, "what's a month? Is it something tasty?"

Naruto thought for a moment. This girl seemed to be quite innocent. Twisted but innocent. He doubted it was an act and so, "come with me. I will tell you when I want to start our Game."

'Tendō! Are you crazy?!' Gedō asked.

'This will allow us to watch over her. Besides... I do not believe we have any other choice...' the girl's behavior seemed to indicate that she knew nothing about the world. If left alone, she could cause trouble.

Then Naruto added, "also, you have to be a good girl and do what I say, alright? If you disobey me, we will not play another Game."

The girl seemed to be scared at the prospect of not playing another game. She nodded rapidly.

"And then, you need a name," Naruto told her. The girl blinked. Naruto continued, "if you do not have a name, you are a bad girl. And bad girl will not be allowed to play Game." In actuality Naruto was already planning on creating false identities in this world.

The girl pouted while thinking. If she was not a God who tried to kill him multiple times, Naruto would have called the sight cute.

"I dunno!" she declared. "Mortal God, give Us a name!" she yelled as she jumped up and down. "If We don't have a name We can't play."

Naruto thought for a moment, "...alright. I will name you, let us see... you gave me the Samsara Eyes long ago."

"What's a Rinnegan?" she asked not knowing how humans referred her Eyes. But then she grinned. "That's it! Mortal God! Rinne!"

Naruto shook his head, "Rinne is not an usual name. How about we shorten it into Rin?"

The girl, Rin nodded. "Rin! We are Rin!"

"...as for me, I suppose I need a name in this world. In case that this world Naruto exist..." Naruto muttered.

'Tendō!' Gedō immediately shouted.

Naruto nodded, "Rin, call me Tendō from now on." Rin blinked in confusion but nodded.

"We are Rin, Mortal God is Tendō!" she repeated.

And thus, the journey of Tendō, his Paths and Rin in another world began.

'Nine months without seeing Yuya and mother...' Naruto frowned. '...what did I do to deserve this?' killing a God actually. Not that he cared.

In the original world, Tayuya froze.

"...Ruto's chakra disappeared..."

She immediately ran towards the Hokage Tower.

Hmm... I guess that's the first chapter.

I hope you all like 'Rin' here.

Tayuya will come to the other world in later chapters.

As for the pairing, Tayuya will still be with Naruto of course. But I am thinking of adding Gedō to the mix.

What do you think?
