Hi.

My story doesn't begin with being struck by lightning, nor does it begin with me proposing to my 4 years old, very hot and very, very, smart girlfriend.

No, no…

Instead, it begins much earlier in time, Nine whole years ago today, back when I was 17, and back when I was once a Shinobi of the Elemental Nations, involved in the 4th Great Shinobi War. Yeah you heard me right. Shinobi. War. I, along with four others, were involved in a battle that was going to decide the fate of my homeworld but unfortunately - or fortunately - for me, the fight didn't go as planned and I ended up alone and lost, without my powers, my Chakra, and my friends, and the only one to help me was a man who to this day I owe a great lot of my current state of living too…

Dr. Harrison Wells.

Out of his own pockets, he nursed me back to health, and in doing so, not only did he, with the help of his colleagues, speed up my healing recovery, he helped educate me in this world's languages and quite a the various amounts of subjects… subjects which to me, isn't as hard as many make it out to be.

He said I was a gifted genius.

He said he was going to help nurture said genius and make it into something that was going to be remembered, and he did.

He helped me unlock many hidden potentials I never knew I even had - like for instance my photographic memory, or my ability to understand and solve complex very equations easily - and taught me how to utilize them properly and with my many gifts, I was certified a good spot amongst his staff within Central City's Premier Tech Industry: STAR Labs.

It was a dream come true.

I made new friends, I got along with my co-workers…

But it wasn't enough.

I wasn't satisfied with what I had because somehow, I still felt that something was missing... and it was then, later on, that I realised that it was the warm comfort of the friends I lost. My one true home. My Chakra. I began to realise that I was so caught up with the present, that I didn't even give myself time to mourn over what I truly missed. How awful I felt, it couldn't even be described in words.

I was depressed for WEEKS.

None of my new friends, and not even Dr. Wells could bring me out of my self-induced depression; and because it was beginning to affect my work, I had to take a short leaf of absence until I got my act together, and wasn't even coming close to a fruition until I met… her.

Felicity Smoak.

The moment she came into my life, things were starting to make a turn for the better. She was the one thing I never knew I needed until I had it. With her charms, her bubbly personality and her brilliance, in my life, it wasn't long till I began to feel like my normal self.

I was happy once more, and it was thanks… to her.

It wasn't long till we started dating and before long, I decided that it was time I proposed to her, and I did, on the night STAR Labs was making their big presentation.

She said yes.

YES!

I was happier than I'd ever been in my entire life.

But unfortunately, before either of us could even begin enjoying afterglow of the moment, each of us were caught in an explosion caused by the Particle Accelerator in STAR Labs, and within the wave of dark matter energy that was dispersed throughout the city shortly after the explosion.

She was fine.

I was pushed into a coma because of the more secure injury I suffered.

It's been 9 months.

I've been in a coma… for 9 months; and how I knew? Well being in a coma… doesn't mean that I wasn't aware of what was going on around me. While my body in a temporary state of hibernation, somehow, my spirit was shoved out of it and I was able to move around, like a ghost.

I became the one thing I was afraid of… talk about a twisted sense of Irony.

Being able to move around without being able to make contact or communication with anyone, especially her for months, filled me with a sense of isolation and loneliness that was much more than what I felt in my childhood years.

But…

It was what gave me the chance to be more aware of what was going on around me. It was how I knew that the moment I was going to wake up, my life wasn't going to be how I once knew it again, but it didn't matter, because when I wake up, the first thing I was going to do, is rush over to the future Mrs Felicity Uzumaki-Smoak, give her a Big Kiss, and tell her how much I love her…

Tell her about just how much I miss her.

End.

Authors Note: Well here we are again. The reason I decided to go on this route, is because I'm a bit stuck on my earlier version. While the appeal of a Speed Force conduit Naruto is an interesting story, it's been overused in this type of genre so I'm going another route. This version of Naruto will get powers as he wakes up. Of what kind is for me to know and you to find out. From the description alone you should get a clue as to who's powers he's getting and if you're right, well hat's of to you.

The First OFFICIAL Chapter is on it's way to being completed. 13 pages already and I plan to make it 15 or more. Hope this doesn't dull your interest in my stories. Oh, and check out my other stories Beach City Sage, and my Naruto/One Piece Story.
