Immortal Monarch Naruto X Xmen - Volume 1 Chapter 6
Rogue into her house, which seemed to feel so foreign now. She felt conflicted; leaving a loved one was not easy even though it was logical.
“Anna”
“Mother” Rogue answered as she looked towards Irene, a middle age woman with short brown hair wearing a green shirt with blue jeans and black shades to cover the white eyes
“Come let us talk over tea, we have lot to cover.” Irene muttered in a gentle tone, to her Anna was her little girl. Even though she trained Anna for the Brotherhood of Mutants, it didn’t mean she held no feelings.
She loved Anna and Raven, her partner through decades and was worried about the future that she had seen.
A future filled with death and danger to her loved ones.
Rogue nodded and followed Irene to the kitchen, where they took their seats.
Irene poured her cup of hot tea and sat down.
“I am sorry that I hid so many secrets from you but know that I do think of you as my daughter.”
Rogue looked at the cup in her hand, “Why do you support them when they are a danger themselves and others?”
“It is not something easy to explain. You know my life had been dynamic in the past, I wasn’t always like this and it is what led to my choices.
I have suffered under the hands of humans and I can see a future where the anti-mutant organizations hunt us down like wild animals.” Irene explained
Rogue looked at her and could feel that it was the truth, ‘I can tell when a person is lying. It must be Naruto’s power and Mother can see glimpses of the future.’
“I trust your words but I would like to experience things through the neutral lenses as I have never been part of this world.”
“No problem but do you trust this man so much? Haven’t you just met him, I hope it is not because you were charmed by him.”
“No, no way.” Rogue quickly denied the accusation
“I just feel safe around him, he is a good person and even though he is insensitive, he understands me completely. He has gone through worse and I absorbed his powers so I need his help to control them as it is really hard to adjust to them now.
I feel like everything is too fragile and will break them, if I am not careful.” Rouge answered calmly and with a peaceful smile showing that she was quite comfortable with him as he brought her out of her shell
“I see then it is good. I hope you are happy with this choice. I will support whatever you choose and remember to come back here when you have time and give me a call every day.” Irene replied as she stood up and hugged Rogue from the back
“I will” Rogue said with a happy smile

Jean walked towards Charles study and knocked on the door.
“Come in”
Jean entered and found the professor reading like always. He turned towards her and asked while showing only calmness, even though she knew he knew that she failed.
“How was it?”
“I failed, an alien being interfered. ” Jean answered as she stood in front of him
“He must not have been an enemy, if you are here without a scratch but why did he interfere.”
“He seemed like a nice guy and just wanted to help the young girl. He had met her before we arrived so seemed to have made a connection. The girl chose him over us but he told her to attend the school so we can see her tomorrow.” Jean explained while giving an unbiased answer as she had been annoyed by Naruto’s antics
“Oh, so it is fine but the man will appear tomorrow as well. What is his danger level?”
“I don’t think I even stand a chance against him. If he was an enemy we will be dead. He was nonchalant in his actions and I felt death breath down my neck when he said to be good.
He was serious in his warning to erase us, if we break his rules.” Jean shivered from the memory as it was her first time being within the range of such thick blood l.u.s.t
“I see that would be really difficult to handle but he is an outsider with such great power than the sorcerer supreme must have met him already. We shouldn’t have much problem so we will welcome them tomorrow.” Charles replied with a smile, he could have shared with the Avengers but he really didn’t trust them much as they stood with humans too closely and ignored their crimes
Jean nodded but didn’t intend to leave as she looked at him with a serious gaze.
“Charles, is there something wrong with my power?”
“Why would you ask that?”
“He told me that, I have something dangerous within me. Was he lying or is there something?”
Charles stopped for a moment as he remembered the day he met Jean, it was a horrifying experience.
“It is the truth; you are old enough to know. I sealed your powers when we met as they were going out of control and resonating with a force inside of you.
I don’t know if it is a representation of your power or an outside force but it is not safe and I have found no solution for it.” Charles explained
“He said he can help me, can you talk to him?”
“Did he? Then of course I will do my best to get help for you my child.” Charles replied in a happy tone
“Thanks for being honest Charles and good night, be sure to get some sleep. I know you stay awake so please for us, sleep.”
“I will.” Charles smiled and felt really touched at the care shown by his oldest student

Within the depths of Naruto’s soul, a creature of massive size awoke from its short slumber. The beast’s tail swished behind it slowly while its eyes rested on one being.
“Why won’t you disappear already?”
“Kurama, you are asking the wrong person.
We both know that I am not the Uchiha. I am just his regret given form but tell me how it feels to play second fiddle to an illusion. Hehe” Sasuke muttered and chuckled as he looked at Kurama
“I would keep on crushing you like a bug if it meant that his regrets would die but you always come back. Truly an abominable sc.u.m you are.” Kurama muttered in an annoyed tone at being mocked
“I am Uzumaki Naruto’s regrets. I exist because he wishes to hear me. He wants to see the Uchiha more than anything. So I am always giving him the options.
He is too weak to face me and had to discard his heart. I am really surprised that he is so weak emotionally about people he cares about.” Sasuke said as he moved around the forest clearing
Kurama didn’t respond but was reminded once again about the other annoyance in his world, the crying Naruto.
He was reminded how much of a bleeding heart Naruto used to be, he had a heart attack when Sasuke’s death warrant was signed and almost died when Neji died.
“So what would you choose if you had the option, kill me or revive me?”
“Nay, there is a third option. Moving on from this tragedy. Unlike you, who can think of the future, I am fully capable of such a thing so I managed to convince him to move.
This place has freed him from the cage and Naruto can finally start a new life.
He had been broken and turned cold when the Uchiha died, not even when the Hatake tried his best to make up for his mistakes or the Hyuga girl.
The world fears him as the monster as he gave out judgment to all beings on the planet without even appearing. They looked up to him and feared his wrath, he finally brought the peace that he wished for but the cost was the loss of humanity.
He had closed of his heart and become prideful and arrogant. The people of his world had no chance of bring him back but this world doesn’t know of his massacres and holds fighters that can stand on his stage as Naruto would never listen to someone weak.
It is something unconscious that he doesn’t realize and we have already met a woman that can satisfy that condition and I am hoping to play the matchmaker.” Kurama replied in a confident tone
“Oooh, I am looking forward to that. Will your attempt succeed or will it fail to banish me?” Sasuke replied as he saw the giant paw coming at him but only smiled playfully as he was crushed
“Ass, I still hate you.” Kurama muttered as he exited the soul realm
—————-
“Hey Partner, how’s it going?” Kurama said as he walked out of Naruto’s body as a small fox of golden energy
“Not bad, this place seems interesting and I was right in listening to you.” Naruto replied as he slept on the bed staring at the ceiling as he felt no fatigue
“Naruto, I need to tell you that you need to be careful how you speak. Too insensitive, you are not going to find a lover like that.” Kurama said as he stepped on his head and sat down
“Why would I need to find one? If they need me to change then I don’t need them, accept as I am or take the highway.”
“Naruto, don’t be afraid to move. Are you a coward that cannot even achieve his goal? Your first goal had always been to build a family but where do you stand now. Nothing, nothing, you have nothing.
You broke all the bonds, so many girls came and went but you didn’t accept them in to your heart.
What are you doing?” Kurama jumped onto his chest and stared into his eyes
“You are really cute Kurama but I know what I am doing. The girls were just not worthy of us, all they could be was part of our harem and nothing more.”
“Naruto, you really should have taken time to digest the power.” Kurama slapped on the right cheek to snap him out of the royal mode but Naruto finger flicked him across the room
“We are fine this way. I am okay this way, it is quite fun having two different forms.” Naruto muttered with a smile
“I think you have really grown crazy, you blonde bastard.” Kurama replied as he tackled him
Naruto caught him and cuddled with his immortal companion, the only one that he allowed by his side.
“Why did you decide to stay with me? You could have lived with your siblings in my dimension.”
“Then who will control your loner ass. If I leave, I know you are going to sulk somewhere.
I am here to help you find love.”
“But you don’t what that even means.”
“Shut it. It doesn’t mean I can’t advice you about it. Just try it for our sake.” Kurama said as he head butted him
“Why not, it sounds interesting.”
