- Chapter 1 – Time Travel -
What are you doing Naruto? It's been over a year since the Great Ninja War. You and I are pretty much what is left over from the war. Sorry to say it, but everything you did was for naught. I wish we can go back and start from scratch and show both of them bastards a thing or two. If you think about it, if they didn't exist, we wouldn't be the last ones on earth.
I know Kurama that is why I have been working on this time travel jutsu. If I am correct, it will send me back in time to the point before you got locked up inside of me. Maybe if I go back….. Maybe if I go back, we both can live a life how we always meant for it to be, Kurama? What do you think?
I….. Naruto. I, I really don't know what to say kit. You have been the only one to really acknowledge me and befriend me except for that little vixen of yours.. I'M SORRY… I.., I didn't mean to meantion..
It's okay Kurama.. she died like a true warrior. I have no regrets. If I did, she would never forgive me in the afterlife and I am not going to let her sacrifice go in vain!
I know kit… I just. I… I'm sorry. I really respected her as a human and as your mate!
I know Kurama….. thanks. Kurama…. I know we have been together for years.. the first 13 were rocky, but after that we have been together as a single unit… a fighting unit with a power that was unmatched except for when Sas… For when Saskue… was granted his powers by the Sage of Sixth Paths… Grandpa Sage was amazing… I just wish things turned out different for both Saskue and I… Sigh. He was my brother, you know?
I know kit….. I actually miss that arrogant Uchiha.. he was the only one who kept you on your toes and the only other person that the Sage thought was worthy of his powers!
…..
Thanks for reminding me Kurama…
Anyways, enough of the whole reminiscing of the past…. I am ready to use this time travel jutsu. I am glad that I was able to go to Uzushiogakure and find my roots. Thanks to that, I am a TRUE Seal Master. I am not trying to ruin the image of my master, Ero-Sennin, but compared to him, when it comes to the sealing arts, he was an amateur Kurama. I am beyond a Sage and have far surpassed grandpa jiji Sage….
Kurama.. I just want to thank…
I know kit, you don't have to say anything. It hurts to say this, but I loved having you as my container! Even before we got along. I really am going to miss you kit….. are… are you sure this is what you want to do? I mean, if we do this, I have no idea what will happen… for all I know, we will both cease to exist.
Kurama…. Whether you wanted to or not, you were my first friend, my first bond….. I wouldn't be me if I didn't have you in my life…. But.., but, this is something that I need to do. No matter what happens, I will always love you. I will always love you because even though you didn't want to be, you were always there for me since day one. I can never repay you for that Kurama… I just wish you understand and hope for the best! I don't know why, but I feel that we are always going to be together even after I use this jutsu.
Kit…. I knw what you mean and I lov…. I love.. damn kit. You know what I mean and want to say.. let's do this! Whatever happens, happens.. It's been a pleasure being locked up in you, you pitiful human!
Ha… Thanks Kurama… the feeling is mutual! Here goes nothing….
Horse, Tiger, Boar, Hare, Serpent, Boar, Rat, Hare, Rat, Dog, Horse, Dog, Tiger, SUMMONING JUSTU: Uzumaki Style, Rebirth of an Uzumaki 20 years, Place of birth!
Naruto, did it work?
Naruto?
NARUTO! ANSWER ME DAMIT! WHERE ARE WE!? NARUTO! GRRRR…..(did it work and I am just not sealed in him anymore? Damn, why did he have to use that jutsu if he wasn't sure if it would have worked… where am I? I see the village… I see them pathetic humans trying to fight me… but where is Naruto?)
Kurama, relax. I am here, you're still with me… but I can sense you in a different part of the village… Let's go!
Lord Third, we need to drive that thing out of the Village until the forth arrives!
I know. Let's drive that beast out of our Village! Be sure to get all civilians out of harm's way! ((Minato, please get Kushina out of harm's way so you can join us!))
Jiji…. Stand down! Let me handle Kuram/((Naruto! Do not tell them my name! You know they have to earn the right to call me by my name!))
((Sorry Kurama))
Who are you!? Anbu, retrain that intruder!
Jiji….. Your peons aren't going to stop me! I am the only one here who can stop the Nine Tails… please, trust me jiji!
((He looks just like Minato, but with whiskers?))… I will let you help us subdue the Nine Tails outsider, but after that, you are coming with me! You have a lot of questions that need to be answered ((I don't think I need to question you though, I don't know why, but I feel like I know you))….
That's fine Jiji..
Anbu 1 Fire Style, Great Fire Ball Jutsu!
Anbu 2 Wind Style, Great Break Through!
Anbu 3 Water Style, Water Wave!
Anbu 4 Lightning Style, Lightning Surge!
NARUTO! I Know that I am sealed within you… but STOP THEM! Even though there is a "me" running around causing damage, all jutsus that is being sent to him is still hurting me while I am sealed in you!
JIJI, have your Anbu stand down and let me handle the Nine Tails!
No, Anbu, keep sending jutsus to the Nine Tails! Do not let up! Drive that bastard out of our Village!
Jiji….. You leave me no choice! FLARES CHAKRA (everyone gets blasted 20 feet back) Kurama, I don't want to hurt you! I know you are being controlled by a Sharingan…. Stand down or I am going to have to get rough with you!
Who are you kid? That chakra… that was no ordinary chakra… ((Fourth… please hurry, I don't know if I can hold this kid off if he decides to attack our village, not to mention the Nine Tails))…
Jiji stand down, have your Anbu stand down. I don't want anyone to die! Go help my father…. I mean, go help the Fourth Hokage, I will handle the Nine Tales! He won't harm anyone else, you have my word Jiji and I never go back on my word. That is my nindo, dattebayo!
((Why do I feel like I can trust this kid? And Dattebayo? He sounds just like Kushina and said to go help his father… the.. Fourth! Is he Minato's son? No, it can't be, he's at least 20 years old. I need answers, but they can wait)) Okay. But if you die, I will bring you back with a forbidden Jutsu so you can answer my questions, you got that!?
Do you mean by Edo Tensei? Don't bother, it won't work Jiji!
((WHAT!)) Glares at him, How do you know that Jutsu BOY! It's forbidden!
Jiji, you're going to have to trust me… I will explain everything once everything is done and over with! To ease your mind, SUMMONING JUTSU!
Boss, why did you summon me, especially against the Nine Tails!? And where are we? How are there people alive?
Gamakichi, don't question me right now and don't say anything… I need you to go with the Jiji and help him with whatever he needs. I will deal with the Nine Tails!
((Who is this boy!? He can summon frogs, does he know Jiraiya?))Boy, don't die… we need to talk once this is done!
Of course Jiji (smiles), I wouldn't dream of dying after coming back!
((That smile! Coming back!?)) What do you mean!?
Don't worry Jiji, all will be answered!
Minato….. are you sure this barrier is going to hold? I want to be able to see my Naruto for a little bit before we die.
Kushina, don't worry. I have been studying your ancestor's seals more than ever and have the upmost faith in the barrier that not even the kyuubi will be able to get in!
I hope your right… I.., I want to see my Naruto!
((What is that chakra that I'm sensing?))
((What is that chakra that I'm sensing?, it seems familiar))
KURAMA! I can feel my mom and pops chakra! That means that they aren't dead yet!
I know Naruto, but stay focused! We'll see them once we deal with my other self!
Kurama, I know that you are being controlled…. Tobi, get your ass out here RIGHT NOW!
((How, how does he know that I am here?)) Who are you boy!?
Tobi, or should I say Obito… I am going to give you one chance and one chance only… Stop what you are doing. There is nothing but death that route you are taking and I will stop you here and now if you want to continue with your Moons Eye Plan!
((Who is this kid and how does he know I'm Obito? How does he know about the Moons Eye Plan?)) Narrows eyes at the blonde…
Last chance Obito! I know all about your intangible powers, I can even go into the same dimension as you.
((WHAT!)) Who are you? How do you know that I am Obito?
Let's just say that I am a ninja in the Shinobi World who "Doesn't disobey the Rules to be regarded as scum."
((WHAT! I only told that to Kakashi, is he related to him?))
I'm not related to Kakashi either…
How…. How do you know that then!? How do you know who I am?
Fake Madara… I know who you are Obito. I know you are a pawn in Madaras world.. I'm giving you a chance right now to do the right thing…. If not, I will KILL YOU! Join us. Do the right thing! Kakashi will be pleased to know you're alive, so will the Uchiha Clan!
I… ((no, I need to stick to Madaras plan or he will kill me, but this boy doesn't seem to be afraid of Madara and knows about us and our plan. Does he know about the tailed beasts too?))
Madara has no say Obito. When the time comes, he will be dead, so will Nagato if he doesn't listen to reason!
((How does he know about Nagato!?I need to get away while I can)) SWIRLS AWAY….
Sigh. I was hoping he would see reason or at least talk to me… Sorry Kurama, but it's time to deal with you.
Random Shinobi…. Nothing we do is working on this demon! Where is Lord Third or the Fourth?
Don't worry shinobi-san… I got this covered. Have your men/women retreat and let me handle this….
Random Shinobi… fine, but if you fail, you are going to have the whole Leaf Village down your throat!
((Please…. Like any of you can harm me let alone make me work up a sweat)).. Yes Shinobi-San!
Fuinjutsu, Contract Release! Kurama, STOP YOUR RAMPAGE OR I WILL STOP YOU!
((How does he know my name, and where am I?)) Pathetic human, I am the Great Kyuubi no kitsune, you don't stand a chance against me!
((Kurma, where you always this arrogant? Sweat drops..)) Stand down! I don't want to hurt you Kurama, you are no longer under the control of that Uchiha! I am Naruto Uzumaki, 3rd jailor of the Kyuubi and friend of Kuramas!
LIES! I've only had two containers and I am not going back to a third!
I am your third Kurama and you are going to be resealed into me… well my younger me. Puts fist out. Fist bump me Kurama... if you don't like what you see, then kill me, if you can…
You intrigue me human… I will play your game. Puts out paw to first bump with Naruto's..
Naruto's mindscape….
HOW… ARE YOU SEALED IN THIS HUMAN WHEN I AM ROAMING FREE RIGHT NOW?
Sigh… Sorry Naruto.. I didn't know that I was this stupid when I was being controlled by that damn Uchiha….
SO…. WE ARE THE SAME?
Yes, and I need you to stop what you are doing and get resealed into this boy. He has been a great partner that father has blessed with his powers. He is the only person alive that can kill us, so I suggest you do what he says if you know what is best for you!
RE..REALLY? SIGH. JUST WHEN I WAS GETTING USED TO BEING FREE… OKAY. I WILL GET SEALED IN THIS MORTAL, BUT IF HE DOESN'T LIVE UP TO FATHERS IDEALS OR EXPECTATIONS, I WILL KILL HIM!
Right… I couldn't kill him, I doubt you could… anyways, go to that barrier over there so we can start the sealing ritual. We'll meet you there and try not to hurt anyone on your way. Naruto will make sure no one attacks you either.
Leaf Village Shinobi's, stand down and do not interfere! The Nine Tails in no threat to you or the village. DO NOT USE ANY JUTSU ON HIM, THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST WARNING!
Random shinobi, we can't just let the Nine Tails roam free in our village!
Other Shinobis, YEAH!
FLARES KILLING INTENT….
(( … it's worse than the Nine Tails…)) Shinobis pass out.
((Sigh, why are the shinobi of this village such idiots Kurama?)) ((I don't know kit, but remember when you were one of them? Laughs)) ((Not funny Kurama… let's go and get this over with))
MINATO! Kyuubi is on his way over here, I'm not sure if he defeated that boy or not but he's on his way. We need to prepare to defend the Village at all costs!
((Sigh)) I know Lord Third, we are almost done with Kushina's delivering our baby. Once she is done, I will transport her and the baby to safety and engage the Kyuubi!
MINATO! IT'S… IT'S TIME! The baby is coming!
I will protect you both as best as I can, take care of Kushina and your baby Minato!
Thank you Lord Third! As soon as were done, I will be back to assist you ((stay alive old man))!
Kyuubi, you will not get passed me!
Jiji, I told you that I would handle the Nine Tails, STAND DOWN! I don't want to hurt you jiji, but I will if you attack him! He was being influenced by a Sharigan user, and no, it wasn't an Uchiha that is in this Village. I will explain everything once the Nine Tails is sealed in myself.. I mean Minato's and Kushina's son!
How do you know all of this? How do you know about Minato's and Kushina's baby? BOY, WHO ARE YOU!? Flares Chakra!
Was that supposed to phase me jiji? Please, I am the strongest shinobi to ever walk this world, I have long surpassed the Sage of Sixth Paths, so your little chakra flare was nothing to me, not even a tickling sensation.
Surpassed the Sage of Sixths Paths!? !?
Later jiji, later. I promise to tell you everything, but I need to seal the Kyuubi into the baby now!
((Why do I feel like I can trust that boy… he looks just like me))..
Tousan… I mean Minato, please bring Naruto here to me. I promise I won't hurt him.
How do you know his name?
We are one in the same… that's all that you need to know for now.
((They are one in the same…. Then if I am correct, he is Naruto, granted a much older version of Naruto.. Is he from the future? But how? Time Travel is impossible, WAIT! I remember reading on it while my time in Uzushiogakure.. could it be? Could he figured out what Kushina and I couldn't?)) Okay. Give me a second….son.
EYES WIDEN! ((Does he know already? I know he was one of the smartest shinobis to live, but man, seeing it first hand is something else)) Thank you tousan…
((I knew it!))
((Son? Tousan? He does look like Minato…))
Where do you want me to put Naruto, Naruto? Smiles!
Smiles, right here on the floor is fine. How's kaasan?
She's fine. She resting now. Once everything is done, we'll all go see her together. I am sure Lord Third has just as many questions as I do and how you were able to time travel.
((TIME TRAVEL! Is such a thing even possible?))
No worries. I have a seal that I can use to show you all events that led me to revert to time traveling. Just when you see my memories, please don't blame yourself for the life I lived. Jiji and Ero-Sennin did their best and baachan Tsunade did too! I have no regrets for the life I lived tousan, it was because of that, that I am the strongest shinobi and best seal master to ever exist!
Narrows eyes…. Naruto.. nevermind, we'll clear everything up once this is done.
Nine Tails, you ready!?
YES KIT. LETS GET THIS OVER WITH SO I CAN GO TO SLEEP, IT HAS BEEN A LONG DAY!
Monkey, Dragon, Rat, Bird, Snake, Ox, Dog, Horse, Tiger, Boar, Ram, Hare, Bird, Snake, Ox, Monkey, Dragon, Rat, Dog, Horse, Tiger, Hare, Ram, Boar: Sealing Arts, Uzumaki Style Sealing of Infinate Being, Fuin!
((WOW! FAST! I barely caught a few of the hand signs.))
((FAST! He must truly be a Seal Master, the only other person I seen use hand seals that fast when using the sealing arts was Uzumaki Mito, but I think this kid is faster!))
It's done. I know you have questions, and I told you I will answer them all, but there is something that I need to do first. I need to take Naruto with me. I need to check the seal and go into his mindscape to make sure the Kyuubi is safe in both of us. It shouldn't take more than 30 minutes or so. Please get kaasan to the hospital so she can rest properly. Gamakichi, please reverse summon Ero-Sennin so he can be here when I reveal everything. I'll get Baachan here as well. Once Ero-Sennin is here, you can release yourself and tell Ma and Pa, I'll be over to visit them.
((Giving orders like he's the Hokage… I'm impressed, son!))
((He must have been some leader in his time!))
How do you plan on getting Tsunade, she's not in the village.
That's my little secret, but let's say you're not the only flash in Konoha!
IN A FLASH OF ORANGE, HE WAS GONE!
WHAT! How! He just used your jutsu Minato! He just Hiraishined away!
No Lord Third… It was similar to my hiraishin, but there was something different about it…maybe he'll show me his version!?
End of Chapter 1
This is my first attempt at this, so be nice. Other than that, I am excited with the way the direction my story is heading in! Please review! Thanks.
