A/N
Hey guys! This is my second story and I've been toying with this idea in my head for a few weeks now and I just had to write it down! I don't read the manga so all my info is coming from the anime and Naruto wikia so if I've got something wrong let me know. I hope you like this story and for everyone who wants a new chapter for my other story don't worry I'm going to be uploading one within the week. Review please? They help keep me motivated!
Disclaimer I do not own Naruto. Though I wish I did,
End A/N
Three days. It has been Three days since the war had gone horribly wrong. Since Madara almost entirely annihilated the entire joint shinobi alliance. Three days since the fall of the five Kage. Three days since he saw his precious people torn to shreds right in front of him. Three days actively suppressing his chakra and hiding in the shadows, holding in the anger and sorrow that consumed him. Three days since his father had told him to run to a secluded cave in the land of fire behind his home village. Three days since Madara Uchiha had won the war.
Three days.
Flashback
"Naruto my son, you are an amazing shinobi and an even more amazing man. Listen this is very important. There is a cave hidden deep behind the village, it has a seal blocking it that can only be opened by my blood or a close relatives." A man with spikey blonde hair said urgently. "Inside the cave is a sealing scroll that can only be opened by using sage chakra and my blood. When you get it open you will see many things you won't understand but there will be a small drawing of a seal with the words time-space written on the back, it's a new design that I was working on before I died but it should still work. If you can copy the seal onto the ground and activate it you will hopefully go back to the past. I don't know when you will arrive but if you can go back and stop this war everyone will stay alive." The man said with a quick glance over his shoulder at a group of shinobi who were currently engaging Madara.
The blonde teen shook his head slowly and started to stand, "No dad I'm going to fight now! I can stop him I have to!"
Just as the blonde finished that a pink haired shinobi landed in front of the duo in a bloody heap. Naruto's eyes widened in horror as he ran forward only to stop as a large black rod slammed through her chest. "Sakura…" he looked up slowly at the man holding the rod. The blonde's heart beat loudly in his chest as if trying to drown out the sounds of his fallen comrades cries of pain. The sun glared in on the scene giving it a surreal appearance. The group of Kage and other shinobi who had been fighting were laying down similar to Sakura, all except for one. "Granny Tsunade….." the blonde whispered out in a pained voice as he looked upon the bloody appearance of the woman he called his grandmother standing in front of his fallen sensei Kakashi.
"I AM THE FIFTH HOKAGE AND I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO HARM ANY MORE OF MY COMRADES!" the large chested woman said angrily. She then slammed her fist into the ground causing a large fissure to appear leading to Madara and Sakura's body. Madara simply jumped into the air and hovered over the crack as Sakura fell into darkness.
Naruto started to take a step forward calling forth Kurama's chakra to once more enveloping him in golden flames. Before he could take another step a truth seeking ball shot forward striking the exhausted woman right in the chest. She fell forward, the breathe leaving her lungs for the last time.
Madara then turned his back on the blonde's comrades and friends to face father and son. "Naruto Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze. This could have all been avoided if you had only surrendered. Your friends would still be alive and you wouldn't have to die here. Unfortunately for you, you didn't so now you're both going to die!"
A truth seeking ball shot forward toward the duo who broke apart to run around Madara. A Rasengan formed behind Naruto and shot forward towards the uchiha but was blocked by a black shield. The truth seeking ball shot towards the blonde shinobi's back. Naruto pushed off the ground to let the ball fly by, however the ball curved towards him heading straight for his chest. Naruto closed his eyes in anticipation for the pain but only felt arms wrap around his body. Naruto opened his eyes to see his father's smiling face looking at him as his skin started to flake away.
"Naruto… it looks like I was right to tell you about the cave…. I took us as far away as I could from the battlefield as I could but It won't be long before Madara tracks my chakra signature here…. Run son. Get to the cave and make things better…. I know you can… because you're Naruto Uzumaki Son of the fourth Hokage and the Red hot Habanero…."
Naruto looked around and only saw trees. They really were nowhere near the battle field. He looked back at his father as more skin started to flake away. "Dad…"
"Always remember Naruto… I love you and I'm so proud of you…" with those last few words the reanimation jutsu disappeared leaving a young rock shinobi who had a truth seeking ball embedded in his back.
Naruto held the body up for what felt like an eternity before a voice could be heard in the back of his head. "NARUTO! Drop the cloak!"
Naruto silently responded and the golden flames disappeared. Naruto gently laid the body down before sinking to his knees, tears starting to form in his eyes. "We don't have time for this Naruto! Grieve later we need to move now! If Madara gets here then it's all over for you and your dad's death will be in vain!"
"Damnit I know you're right Kuruma. I can't let their sacrifice be in vain! I have to go back!
End flashback
"What do you think will happen when I activate the seal?" Naruto asked aloud.
"I don't know Kit I'm not a fuinjutsu expert or anything so all I can say is what your reanimated father said." A deep voice replied from inside his mind
Naruto nodded before stepping back and bringing his hands together to form the appropriate seal. Chakra flowed into the seal causing it to shine brightly. Naruto took a deep breath before stepping into the glowing seal. Just then the front of the cave exploded revealing a pissed off Madara. "Uzumaki you have ran far enough. I can't let a potential threat like you exist any longer! it's time to die!" a truth seeking ball shot forward toward the blond as the seal glowed brightly and disappeared taking the blonde with it.
