Another plot could be that Pain is reincarnated after his death, but without his memories. Naruto discovers him and decides to take him under his wing. As Pain slowly regains his memories, he struggles between his newfound friendship with Naruto and his old, vengeful self.
Maybe in the fanfiction, Naruto could somehow enter Pain's past through a special jutsu. By seeing Pain's tragic experiences firsthand, Naruto tries to change his view on the world and prevent him from becoming the villain he is in the original story. This would involve a lot of emotional exchanges and growth for both characters.
