Chapter 1
Naruto was standing in a dark room alone, he knew he had died but couldn't for the life of him (no puns intended) remember how.
"Do not worry child, you died in peace. You left your world in a state of true peace, how long it will last is uncertain."
Before he could ask who had spoken his memories of his final moments flowed within his mind.
(Memories)
A fifty year old Naruto Uzumaki laid in his bed with all of his friends and family surrounding him. His son Boruto stood beside him in his 9th hokage robes with his wife Sarada right beside him with a four year old boy beside her. "Don't worry father, we'll all be fine. You've done more than your fair share of the work in maintaining world peace, just let go and rest."
Everyone said their goodbyes from Boruto to Sarada to Himawari to Konohamaru to Sasuke and Sakura to many more. Naruto watched it all with a smile then brought his two children close. "I'm so proud of you two, you've become very strong. Boruto remember this, i chose you to hold Kurama because i believe in you, Kurama believes in you, and your mother always believed in you."
Next he looked to Himawari. "And you, you had become the head of the Hyuuga clan as soon as you became a jounin, the ambassador of Konoha a year later, and took on four genin teams that each went on to become Sannin level in strength." He died with a smile on his face.
(Memories end)
"Now enough of that." said the voice again as two people stepped into the room. On the left side was a man in a black business suit with pale skin, ink black shoulder length hair and a scythe. On the right side was a man in golden armor with a dragon made of fire painted on it.
"Time to get to the point. We have a proposal for you Naruto Uzumaki."
The elder Uzumaki cautiously spoke up. "And what would that be?" He knew that if he was still sixteen he'd have done something stupid like start yelling or even start attacking the two.
"Let's start with introductions." said the guy on the left. "In your world I'm known as the Shinigami while this golden lizard is known as Akatosh in the world of Nirn."
Naruto knew exactly who the Shinigami was because it was him who Naruto's father had summoned for help sealing Kurama inside of him and it was him who the third hokage had summoned to help kill Orochimaru. The one he had no clue about was this Akatosh and in Naruto's line of work not knowing something could get you killed or worse.
The Shinigami seemed to pick up on the old kages uneasiness about the situation and decided to speak up. "Do not worry Uzumaki, our proposal comes with knowledge, we want you to be reborn into the world of Nirn as the dragonborn where you will fight against the world eater Alduin to save mortal kind from being enslaved once again by Akatosh here's firstborn, in exchange I'll have both of your parents reborn into that world so they may raise you, plus I'll have your wife reborn there as well."
Naruto thought about it, he'd be able to save another world and have his family back, it was a no brainer. "Yes, i agree."
Akatosh grinned. "Good choice, when you're born you'll remember nothing about either your past nor that this conversation ever happened, you'll regain your memories when it's time to begin your quest to defeat my son. Good luck Naruto Uzumaki."

A redheaded high elf woman by the name of Kushina Namikaze laid on a bed in a temple of Arkay screaming profanities at her husband as she squeezed his hand painfully while giving birth.
Minato Namikaze was an imperial battle mage who had fallen for Kushina years ago, right now though he was begging any divine that would listen for help, hoping that his wife would give him mercy when she could move again on her own.
Soon the priestess passed Kushina a little boy with his father's dirty blond hair and her light purple eyes. "I'll name him Naruto, Naruto Namikaze will be strong like his mother and father."
(6 years later)
A now six year old Naruto Namikaze stood in the training room of his parents mansion in the imperial city with his mother who was wearing her blue mage robes. "Today you start your magic training, we'll start you with connecting with your mana pool. Everything has a mana pool in their gut area so what you'll be doing for now is meditation to find it, while you meditate i want you to focus on your gut area. When you feel it it will either feel warm, cold, or even tingly like you had just been hit with low voltage electricity. What this will tell you is which of the destruction spells we should start with, are you with me so far?"
Naruto nodded and got in the lotus position. Within minutes he had found his mana pool and it was large with a feeling of warmth, cold and as if he had electricity flowing through him.
When he explained this to his mother she smiled brightly. 'My son is so strong already.' thought the woman. "Alright, let's start with flames then sparks and finally frostbite."
(2 years later)
An eight year old Naruto Namikaze stood with his father in the training room, both carrying wooden swords. "Alright Naruto, while the magic your mother and I will teach you is powerful and you have large reserves to pull from it is not infinite so I'll be teaching you how to use any weapon from swords to daggers to bows to even war axes. I'll make sure that you are prepared for any fight you may find yourself in."
And so the training began, Minato fixing every mistake with a quick show of skill by hitting Naruto in an unprotected area and showing the proper way to do it.
(2 years later)
Naruto stood alone in the training room, he had been allowed to pick a basic spell to learn from any school of magic and had chosen to conjure his familiar.
He did exactly as the book had explained and pooled his magic into his hand in a swirl and pushpushed it out towards the floor where a purple vortex appeared. What stepped out was a corporal bear instead of the common wolf.
The blonde ten year old grinned. "I'll call you Ripper, let's fight together until the day i pass into sovngarde.
(10 years later)
A now twenty year old Naruto Namikaze stood in front of his parents with a smile, he had learned all that he could from them. He was a master level destruction mage, a master conjuror, an apprentice level illusion mage, a adept level alteration mage, and a experienced level restoration mage. (other-wise known as a healer)
Naruto wore hooded black mage robes that had been enchanted to deflect any magic spell whether it be from the school of destruction or from the school of conjuration, a face mask that had been enchanted to cast a shadow over his face except for his eyes, (which had turned crimson red over the years) which made it look like they glowed in the darkness when his hood was up, ebony gauntlets which were enchanted to make his punches stronger along with keeping his aim with a bow steady, ebony boots that were enchanted to make him run faster and allow him to stand on water, and for jewelry he had a chain necklace made of steel around his neck which was enchanted to enhance his senses at will. On his right and left hips were dual war axes made of ebony that he had made on his 18th birthday as a test of his smithing skills, had enchanted the one on his right with a powerful fire enchantment while the left was enchanted with powerful lightning. All of this had enchantments that made it impossible for others to take off of him.
His mother handed him a large pouch. "Your father made this himself then i enchanted it to be able to carry anything without adding any additional weight along with only you being able to touch it, not to mention the enchantment that makes it resist both physical and magical damage."
Minato spoke as Naruto strapped it to himself. "We took the liberty of placing a bedroll, a cover, a pillow, food, water, a large whetstone, extra weapons, and extra clothes in the bag along with enough money to last you until you get to the college of winterhold."
The family hugged for one more time. "Thank you, the next time you see me I'll have become the arch-mage of the college."
After that Naruto conjured a horse and rode off. The two parents smiled off at their only son. 'Such a powerful boy, i pray that he'll get to that college safely.' the two unknowingly thought at the same time.
(Scene change)
Within a month Naruto had moved from the imperial city to the border of Skyrim. He had stopped to rest when a company of blue clothed soldiers came marching through the mountainous area with a guy in royal clothes.
With his enhanced sense of sight Naruto noticed a single archer in the distance aim for the high class clothed man. In a burst of speed the half breed tackled the man to the ground, barely dodging the steel arrow as it grazed his shoulder.
Before any pleasantries could be exchanged the blond saw what looked like half of an army come over the hills.
When the ambushers got close enough Naruto unsheathed his war axes and 'went to town' as they say. One ambusher attempted to decapitate him but the blond ducked and sliced his stomach open where he saw as the man's intestines fell out.
Soldier after soldier fell for a whole ten minutes when he was distracted by the sound of a booming voice and the sight of multiple men and women flying backwards as if from an explosion. Because of his distraction he had not noticed the imperial soldier behind him that knocked him out with the pummel of his sword.
(Scene change)
Naruto awoke in a cart groaning, attempting to grab the back of his head but failing do to his hands being tied up. "By the divines, what the fuck hit me?"
A chuckle was heard in front of him. "A pummel my friend, a pummel."
The blond looked up and saw one of the blue armored men from before and he had his hands tied as well. "Who are you?"
The man smiled. "I'm Ralof, and the man you saved earlier is jarl Ulfric Stormcloak."
The smile became a large grin. "Thanks for that by the way, if not for you he would have died unable to properly defend himself."
Naruto shrugged. "It ain't nothing to praise me for, anyone with a shred of honor would have done it, i just so happened to be the one to notice the coward who tried to take a cheap shot at him and was able to get there in time."
Ralof nodded. "Still thanks. Say, what's your name anyway?"
Naruto looked off to the side. "Naruto Namikaze."
The guy driving seemed to get mad. "Shut up back there!"
The blond half breed snorted. "Oh go choke on a giants dick you milk drinker. We're just killing time, how about you focus on the road ahead and ignore us."
Ralof laughed and the guy from before (apparently a jarl) joined in by chuckling behind the cloth over his mouth. (Probably to stop whatever that odd magic was from before) "Oh i like you Naruto, you're obviously not a nord but you sure as hell don't act like a typical elf does."
Naruto raised an eyebrow. "Oh, and what does a typical elf act like? I'm not very knowledgeable about things that most people would see as common knowledge since most of my life i have been stuck in my families home training."
The stormcloak soldier nodded, he could understand that. "A typical elf would usually be too 'high and mighty' to speak to us nords without a sneer that just has to have been practiced since birth, they would never use words like milk drinker as that seems to common for them, and they definitely wouldn't save the leader of the rebellion that wishes to shit on the treaty they had written."
Naruto snickered. "Well my mother always uses what is thought of as nord slang, my father is an imperial battle mage so he doesn't give two shits about professionalism, and I'm not very nice to people who are to cowardly to fight head on and attempt to kill a honorable man in cold blood. Now don't get me wrong, I'll kill in cold blood but only those who don't deserve the right to defend themselves like a rapist, bandits, or necromancers."
Before Ralof could speak the sight of a town was seen. "Helgen, my father used to brought me here for my first bottle of ale, it was made with specially grown juniper berries to give it a better taste without taking the kick out of it… i miss those days."
When the cart stopped the three men were forced off of it. Two imperial soldiers were standing before them, a foot soldier with a list and a captain with their hands behind them.
The guy with the list went down said piece of paper, naming off each person as they walked over to the area that they would be executed until Naruto was the only person left. "You, who are you?"
Naruto mentally sighed. 'My only chance of getting out of here is to act like a pompous ass, damn it.' putting a well practiced sneer on his face as he pointed his nose towards the air he started speaking in a high and mighty voice. "I'm Naruto Namikaze, son of Kushina Namikaze aka the crimson flame flinger and Minato Namikaze aka the yellow lightning splitter."
The imperial soldier looked to the captain. "He's not only not on the list but he's the child of two very dangerous battle mages!"
The woman glared at Naruto as flashes of the slightly failed ambush went through her mind. "I don't give a damn, he goes to the block."
The man sighed in resignation. "Of course, by your orders captain." he looked to the blond in a apologetic way. "We'll send your remains back to your parents so you may receive a proper burial."
The half breed nodded silently. When he stood with the others he was hit by a torrent of memories, memories of his past life. 'So, play times up huh. Let's see if those shit heads are paying attention to this.' thought the blond before focusing on his power. "Hey assholes, are you listening?" asked the former shinobi through a hastily made mind link.
A chuckle was heard in his mind. "Yea brat we're listening and i already know what you're about to ask and my answer is don't do anything just yet, Alduin will be emerging from the time wound soon." said the Shinigami.
"My son's first target will be Helgen and he'll attack before you are executed so don't worry about that." said Akatosh in his eternally calm voice.
"Right, I'll just wing it then." said the half breed just before he cut the link. 'It's what I'm best known for back in Konoha anyway.'
He had focused on his surroundings just as a random stormcloak was decapitated by the executioner. 'Damn, not the best way to go for sure. May his soul find peace in sovngarde among the heroes of the past.' thought the young Namikaze.
The captain smirked darkly at Naruto. "Next the half breed!"
Naruto walked up to the block where he was put on his knees with his head resting on the stone just above the wooden crate that had the head of the guy from before still in it. "May the daedra have there way with your soul you cowardly bitch." said Naruto while looking the smirking captain in the eyes.
The woman scowled and signaled for the executioner to do his job.
Naruto watched calmly as the big brute brought the battle axe above his head. 'If i die here i will not go out begging for my life, a Namikaze never begs.'
Right then a large midnight black dragon with glowing crimson red eyes landed on the top of a tower making the ground shake, this had the effect of forcing the executioner to drop his weapon behind him.
Alduin looked to the sky and shouted, making meteors fall down on the town. Naruto followed Ralof and the other stormcloaks into a different tower, closing the door quickly. 'Dejavu, just like the beginning of the war with Madara fucking Uchiha. Well Alduin, I'll take this as your declaration of war.'
XXXAN: Hello everyone and welcome to A new life. now I'll ask you this, should Hinata be reborn as a npc or should she look like she was in her past life. For example, she's reborn as Aela and Naruto 'meets' her as she kills the giant all by herself.As always MCL homies
