Chapter 01

"It can't be"

Naruto grinned from his kneeling position, he was exhausted that's true but he had finally managed to nail that damn Madara with a mix between the Rasenshuriken and the Bijudama. The man was staring with wide eyes at what used to be his heart. Naruto had an awesome name for the technique too but Kurama had shot him down, moody fox.

"Damn you Naruto Uzumaki, Obito should have killed you from the very start!" Blue eyes focused again on the raging founder of Konoha, the man had a hole in his chest but somehow he still managed to talk, Naruto knew that it was over though; the mad man couldn't hurt anyone else anymore. He met the Rinnegan head on with his own blue eyes, the sage mode long gone. A sudden pain in his chest made Naruto double over and start coughing, it hurt.

"Naruto!" Voices screamed his name from the distance, Naruto knew they were familiar but he couldn't place them, everything had gone kind of fuzzy all of a sudden, he couldn't see clearly either. Huh? Another wave of sharp pain threw him face down to the ground; he gripped what was left of his shirt trying to alleviate the pain to no avail.

"Sakura help me turn him over!" That voice, Granny Tsunade? She sounded worried, panicked even, that couldn't be good. Did he go and do something stupid again? Gentle hands were suddenly turning him on his back, Naruto groaned in protest as dazed eyes tried to focus on the starts but he just couldn't, he was so tired.

"Oi Naruto! Don't you dare close your eyes! Hang on!" Blue eyes turned slowly to the new voice. Naruto was sure that one belonged to Sakura. It was obvious that he did something dumb because he made her cry again "Naruto are you listening to me? Please…don't go…I will even go on a date with you after this is all over so please don't die" That sounded nice, but he didn't have any strength anymore "Please, I am begging you"

He vaguely registered the two pair of hands that were trying to heal him, it was futile. Naruto frowned, he never was so pessimist, but he somehow knew it was true and he was pretty sure Sakura and Tsunade baa-chan knew it too. A spike of chakra made him and his companion tense "No" he mumbled, somehow gaining the strength necessary to sit up, ignoring the people who begged him to stop moving. His eyes widened when he spotted Madara still on his feet.

"How did he survive the last hit from Naruto-kun?" A trembling voice said from behind him. Hinata, he realized a moment later, she was the only reason why he didn't fall back again, she was supporting him as always, the thought brought a small smile to his face. It was wiped away immediately when he felt another surge of chakra. Madara started laughing, the sound made a chill travel down his spine.

"Naruto, I have to admit you surpassed all of my expectations" Madara commented nonchalantly, why wasn't the Uchiha falling down dead yet? The Sharingan user took a step in his direction and suddenly he was watching the back of his comrades as they stepped in front of him "Oh? What is this, you still have strength to protect the last Jinchuuriki?" Madara seemed amused, but maybe from his point of view it was, Naruto knew just as well as Madara that no one had enough chakra to attack.

"You can't protect him from this, nothing can. I never thought I would need to use my last trump card but as I said, Naruto is special like that" Said blond stood up with the help of his friends, he could feel how Shikamaru went to stand beside him and Naruto gratefully leaned on him. Smiling slightly at the "troublesome" that escaped the Nara's lips. With clumsy steps he went to the front.

"I know you are as dead as I am Naruto Uzumaki" Madara had taken on a more serious expression, ignoring completely the gasps from their audience at the statement. Naruto suppressed a flinch "I won't survive this injury, but neither will you survive the use of the Kyuubi's chackra" Naruto really didn't want the others knowing that, the blond knew of the risks when he used the full power of the bijuu and didn't want his friends to feel bad about it.

"You probably feel victorious, you finally defeated me…" Something was wrong, Naruto knew it, hell everyone knew, all of the ninjas still alive and conscious could feel the chakra Madara was gathering. How could it be that he still had strengh? "But…" Madara said with poorly hidden glee "The Rinnegan has one more jutsu, one that not even the Sage of the Six Paths used. Shows to you how much of a fool he was"

"Get on with it already" Naruto said with a grin, Shikamaru snorted from his side "Only you Naruto"

"Even if it pains me, the dobe is right" Sasuke said, coming from his other side to support him, if it wasn't from their help Naruto knew he would have fallen to his knees already. He was dying, but knowing he fulfilled his promise to Sakura and to himself made him feel lighter. Team 7 was finally together again. Naruto closed his eyes, he didn't know what Madara was planning now but he wouldn't allow it to work.

Had Sasuke been a lesser man he would have stepped back at the glare Madara Uchiha was aiming at him, as it was he only glared back with all the hate from his being "Do not talk to me, you are such a disappointment" Madara said with a superior smirk before glancing at his audience, all of what was left of the shinobi alliance was staring at him. It would feel so nice when he destroyed their hope "You see, there is this last jutsu. Or to be more specific a Time Jutsu…"

Murmur started and people blanched and even fell to their knees when what Madara was saying started to sink in "A time jutsu…you can't be serious!" A shinobi of the Sand screamed, getting as an answer a mad laugh from Madara.

"This jutsu will let me manipulate one action of the past as I see fit" the Uchiha said, hands starting to form hand seals already, but no one was in any condition to stop him anymore, it didn't mean they didn't try but Madara did quick work of those "And guess what that will be…"

"Stop kidding around you fucking Uchiha!" Kiba screamed in a rage, using the last of his strength to lunge at Madara. The older man smirked and dodged the first punch easily, not stopping his hand seals for a second "Kiba-kun!"

Naruto heard a thump and he knew that his friend must be dead, but he couldn't hestitate now. He needed just a little more time "Pathetic, you Naruto were the only real thread, and this jutsu shall take care of that"

"Yes, it will be the death of one Uzumaki Naruto! You won't be a thorn in my side anymore; you shall die as soon as you are born!" With that said Madara finished the last of his hand seal, it was something none of the ninja close enough to observe it had ever seen. Naruto's eyes choose that moment to snap open, but they weren't blue anymore, but slit red eyes with a horizontal line that showed he was using the last of Kurama's chakra and natural energy at the same time. There was no way that Naruto was letting that sick bastard take away their victory.

"Jikan seigyo no Jutsu!" "Rasenshuriken!"

So I started another story without finishing the other one but I just needed to write it down.

Time travel is all over the place but I love those stories! So I wanted to try my hand writing my own. Hope you liked it! R&R? :)
