Prologue

Infront of the village, a man sighed as memories flooded his mind. Defeating Madara Uchiha along side his childhood friend, Naruto Uzumaki who had been promoted to Hokage shortly after healing.

"Tch. First to go from Genin to Hokage. That's the dobe for you."

This man, was Sasuke Uchiha. The last Uchiha alive, after Madara was killed and Obito accepted defeat by Kakashi. Atleast he was the last for now. He had refused to let his clan die.

It had been a long day for one Naruto Uzumaki as he finally laid down in his bed. He had been talking to Kakashi all day about preparations to become the seventh Hokage.

"So..i finally reached my goal. Seems a little bitter sweet considering the conditions..Grandma Hokage.."

'Cmon, Naruto. Cheer up, you've been working for this forever. Don't let Lady Tsunade's sacrifice be in vain. She died saving the other Kage's afterall. Although Ohnoki could't be saved, he passed the torch to his granddaughter'

Naruto smiled and swore at himself for being deterred so easily.

"You're right, Kurama. Thanks for talking some sense into m-..."

Suddenly Naruto and Kurama felt the presence of a familiar chakra.

"That chakra..Sasuke.."

Naruto raced to the source of the energy, his window. But all he found was a note, and his window wide open, wind hitting him in the face along with the surprise of the contents of the letter.

"No.." He whispered to himself.

Sasuke found himself at the place where he first departed from this place. The valley of the end.

"I have completed my goals. It's time for this generation of Uchiha to come to an end."

"Sasuke!" He heard a voice yell and automatically knew who it was.

He turned to see his grown bestfriend and said calmly

"Naruto"

Naruto looked him straight in the eyes and asked

"Why, Sasuke? We just teamed up a few weeks ago, and you disappear and return to fight me?"

Sasuke simply unsheathed his sword and said

"No time for words, Naruto" and lunged forward. The soon to be Hokage parried it with a kunai and just like that, he knew he was in the fight of his life.

Sakura had been laying in her bed mourning over Tsunade when suddenly Kakashi appeared outside her window.

"Sakura, come. It's Naruto and Sauke."

Her eyes widened and she got dressed the fastest she ever had in her life. She refused to lose another loved one. Especially one of those two. And with Kakashi leading the way, they sped off to make sure things didn't happen the way they had in the past. Little did they know, it'd be so different, it'd be worse.

Sasuke and Naruto panted heavily, exhausted from their rapid exchanges. Sasuke had tried amaterasu, but Naruto's newfound speed thwarted that. Naruto had tried a tailed-beast ball but Sasuke parried it with a Susano'o arrow and the explosion knocked the two males back into the bottom of each respective statue. Naruto at Hashirama's and Sasuke at Madara's. They looked into eachother's eyes and were both thinking the same thing. Sasuke focused his chakra and blinding lightning flashed into sight in the form of his signature Chidori. Naruto summoned a clone and proceeded to make a ball of concentrated energy that whipped and spun rapidly in his in the form of his patent Rasengan. The two exploded toward eachother and thrusted their arms out toward eachother.

"Sasuke!" Naruto roared.

"Naruto", Sasuke simply said. He knew this would be their last clash. The two techniques, and there was a blinding flash, and then an explosion.

Kakashi and Sakura heard the deafening explosion and gave eachother a grim, knowing look. They focused some chakra to their legs and ran even faster if that was possible. When they came to the clearing they saw Naruto leaning over a broken and battered looking Sasuke just how Sasuke had leaned over him years earlier.

"Naruto! Sasuke! Cmon, Kakashi Sensei!" Sakura yelled but upon seeing the look in Sasuke's defeated eyes, Kakashi already knew what happened. Obito had the same look in his eyes when he allowed Kakashi to kill him.

"Sasuke..you..why?...i know that wasn't your full strength..you wanted to die.." Naruto said, his voice cracking.

Just then Sakura rushed over and ran her hands over Sasuke's broken chest, glowing with green chakra

"It's okay, Sasuke...I'm here..to heal you." She wept, barely keeping a hold of herself.

She jumped as she felt a hand on her shoulder, and heard Naruto say

"Stop, Sakura. It's no use.."

"How can you say that?!" She raised a hand to slap him but her wrist was grabbed by Sasuke's weak hand.

"He's right, Sakura...Don't waste your time."

Sakura opened her mouth to protest, but her mouth was met with Sasuke's finger.

"But..your cla-"

"I said..it's okay. Listen up..i'm only gonna say this once. I want to thank you all, for not giving up hope on me even when I fell into darkness..Dobe..come closer.."

Naruto did as he was asked and as Sasuke whispered something into his ear as Naruto's eyes widened and he yelled

"You and-!" He yelled before he was silenced by a signature Uchiha glare. His eyes softened afterwards however, realizing Naruto got the hint.

"Thankyou, all of you. The Uchiha name must be cleansed by a new generation and that can only happen with the end of this one." and with that his eyes closed and the pure Uchiha bloodline was gone.

"Let's have a proper burial" Kakashi proposed and knew their answer.

"Although, i'm going to preserve his eyes. Too many people would like to get their hands on these."

And with that gave him a proper burial, and had a moment of silence for their friend that they'd never forget and headed back to the village.

"So the day's finally here huh?" Naruto heard a soft voice say and turned to see his new girlfriend, Hinata Hyuga. He hugged her and said

"Yeah, it feels good. Could'ntve done it without you though, if you hadn't have slapped some sense into me after ykmw..Neji's-" he felt Hinata's lips press upon his. When they broke the kiss, he smiled at her boldness and took her hand, saying

"Let's get going."

Naruto looked over the village with his inspiring Cerulean eyes, smiling. He had finally become Hokage. He looked at Moegi, with her wild hair in gravity defying pigtails. Udon, still sneezing, holding tissues, ready. Konohomaru, his protege' of sorts who had been progressing amazingly as a shinobi. Shino, who's still so mysterious and quiet. Kiba, who's just as loud and obnoxious as ever with his overgrown partner, Akamaru. Choji, who had began to bulk up, looking much more muscular and fit. Ino, who had started dating Sai recently, who had gotten less..socially awkward. Shikamaru, who had been in an progressing relationship with Temari from the Sand. Kankuro who was still as smug as usual. Tenten, who was gradually getting over the loss of her crush, Neji.

Lee, and Gai still as "youthful" as ever and looking practically identical. Kurenai, holding her child. Hanabi, and Hiashi. Then he looked to his sides. At Kakashi, who's still reading that book of his, it never gets old to him, I guess. To Gaara, who'd been healed with Tsunade's dying breath. Bee, who had helped him hone his relationship with Kurama, his partner. To his lover, Hinata. Who had also played an important part in the war. He closed his eyes and thought of Sasuke, his bestfriend and rival, Pervy Sage, who'd been like a father to him, and Minato, and Kushina, his loving parents. He looked out at the crowd once more as he opened his eyes and threw up his arms.

"Alright, everyone. Let's get this village back to standards! First order of business, free ramen for everyone! Let's eat!"

Tuechi grimaced and just like that, Naruto began his tenure of Hokage and a new journey began in Konoha.
