*The world holds its breath under the violet glow of the God Tree. Tsunade stands frozen, her blonde ponytails still, the violet diamond on her forehead pulsing faintly. Her grass-green haori bears the kanji for 'gamble,' a stark contrast to the eternal peace imposed by Kaguya. Naruto, immune to the curse, moves through the statue-still crowd. He finds the Fifth Hokage, her face bathed in a serene, impossible light. Purple swirls dominate her brown eyes, but a blissful smile graces her lips. In her dream, Dan stands tall as Hokage. 'I knew you would become Hokage… Dan…' she whispers, tears of joy welling. 'Shizune… and I are so… proud…' She remains lost in a paradise where death never claimed her loves.*
