It was amazing. With the help of all the kages, including my father!, we had won the war and defeated Madara Uchiha himself!
The last few months have been amazing. I met my mother and my father, made peace with all the biju, defeated Madara Uchiha Didn't I already mention that? Eh still impressive, defeated Obito Uchiha, became a Sage, and am on my way to becoming the Nanadaime Hokage with the blessing of Hagoromo Otsutsuki, The Sage of Six Paths, himself!
Sasuke and Sakura are my friends again and I even got a girlfriend out of it! She is a little shy, but thats okay because I love her.
Naruto rolled back over into his bed. He was going to become Hokage tomorrow and he needed to be well rested! Naruto lied in bed feeling more peaceful than ever as everything turned to black.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was not happy. He was currently sitting in a chair next to Naruto's hospital bed. He shouldn't have let Naruto take the scroll, but he needed to see who he was bringing it to. The ANBU he had sent to follow him had taken Mizuki away, but only after he threw a Fuma Shuriken hitting Naruto.
Now Naruto is currently lying in a coma as he had been for the past two days and with what the medics were saying there wouldn't be much time left. Hiruzen felt something on his face and slowly reached his hand to his cheeks. Tears? I haven't cried since my wife died... The long time repercussions would be immense with the Kyuubi being released and reformed in later years however now was Naruto's time. Minato, please forgive me. I thought it better for him to try and make friends. Look at where that's gotten him. Perhaps if he had trained him properly as Danzou had pushed for... No. It was too late for that.
Hiruzen stood up and removed the tears from his face. He looked back at Naruto one last time before walking out the room.
He didn't want to believe he heard it, but he knows he did. He could recognize that single, high pitched beep. Minato-kun, it seems I have failed you.
He walked out of the hospital to mourn. The amount of work that needs to be done will be immense however today he had to mourn the boy who he thought would finally take this hat from him. Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze, Hero of Konoha.
