A Past Become Future

by Kumori sensei

Sasuke's been captured by Cloud and Tsunade sends Team Kakashi, Team Gai, and Kiba and Shino out to save him. He's put under house arrest as punishment for his past crimes, but what happens when hundreds of ninja rise against him? Narusasu, yoai boyxboy . I own nothing.

1. To The Cloud Village

I do not own Naruto.

NaruSasu Chapter 1: To The Cloud Village!
"Naruto! NARUTO wake up!" Sakura yelled banging on his door.
"(Yawn) What's up Sakura?" Naruto asked grinning at her.
"We have training you idiot." Sakura scolded him.
"What? I completely forgot!" Naruto yelled.
"Just get ready so we can go." Sakura ordered and Naruto ran to his room and got changed grabbing his weapons pouch and other weapons, then ran back to Sakura. He was 18 now, and carried a sword. He wears a Jounin uniform and the jacket Minato Namikaze wore but it was red with black flames and didn't have anything written on the back.
"Okay. I'm ready!" Naruto said.
"Then let's go. Kakashi sensei's waiting for us at the training field." Sakura stated.
"Okay!" Naruto said and they dashed to the training field where Kakashi was.
"Kakashi sensei! Sorry I'm late!" Naruto yelled running up to his sensei.
"That's okay Naruto." Kakashi said to Naruto.
"So what are we doing for training today?" Sakura asked.
"We were going to train today but Tsunade gave us a mission." Kakashi stated.
"What's the mission about? Are we going to capture rouge like we did last time?" Naruto asked excitedly.
"No. We have information on Sasuke's whereabouts." Kakashi said.
"Really?" Naruto asked, "This time, I'm definitely going to bring Sasuke back!"
"Sasuke? We're really going to find Sasuke?" Sakura asked.
"Yes. Pack your things. We're leaving immediately!" Kakashi ordered.
"Got it!" Naruto said.
"Right!" Sakura said.
"Meet me at the front gate when you're ready." Kakashi ordered and left in a cloud of smoke. Sakura and Naruto glanced at each other with an expression that said 'This is our chance to bring him back' and then they dashed to their homes, packed their bags and headed for the front gate where Kakashi told them they were to meet him at.
"Kakashi sensei! We're ready!" Sakura yelled as they ran up to him.
"Good. Now we have to wait for Kiba, Shino, and Gai's team." Kakashi said.
"Not quite Kakashi!" Gai yelled from behind him.
"Bushy Brow! It's been a while!" Naruto yelled.
"It's great to see you again Naruto!" Lee yelled. "We should spar sometime!"
"Definitely!" Naruto said.
"Hey guys! Sorry if we're late!" Kiba yelled running up with Shino.
"Hey Kiba!" Naruto yelled.
"Hey Naruto! Finally made it a Chunnin eh?" Kiba asked.
"More like Jounin." Naruto said.
"Really? That makes two of us then!" Kiba yelled.
"A-hem." Tsunade said.
"Grandma Tsunade! Come to see us off?" Naruto asked.
"Stop calling me that!" Tsunade yelled at Naruto. "Anyway, yes I did. And you'd better be going, you can talk on the way."
"Right!" Everyone yelled.
"Don't worry Granny, when we get back this time, Sasuke's gonna be with us!" Naruto yelled.
"Haha, I'm sure he will." Tsunade said watching their figures disappear.
"So, Kakashi sensei where are we headed?" Naruto asked.
"The hidden Cloud village." Kakashi said.
"I thought we became enemies with the Cloud when Tsunade said that Sasuke wasn't a missing nin." Sakura said.
"That's why we're going to have to sneak our way in." Kakashi said.
"But why is Sasuke there if they obviously want him dead. They wouldn't let him in if there life depended on it." Naruto stated.
"We're actually going to break into their jail cells to find Sasuke." Kakashi said.
"Sasuke was captured!" Everyone else screamed except Gai who already knows.
"Yes. And now we're going in to save him. We have a week and then he's going to be executed." Gai said.
"He's what?" Naruto yelled furious.
"Gai. You said too much." Kakashi said. Naruto suddenly sped up.
"Oh." Gai said. "He has so much youth!"
"I agree Gai sensei!" Lee said. "Wait up Naruto!" And then Lee sped up to catch up to Naruto.
"He always get's all touchy when it comes to Sasuke." Kiba said.
"Kind of like you do with Hinata." Shino said.
"Shut up Shino! Besides, that's different." Kiba said blushing.
"How?" Shino asked.
"Oh come on. Like Naruto has a crush on Sasuke." Kiba said.
"You like Hinata?" Everyone yelled but Kakashi, Gai, Shino, and Naruto and Lee who were too far away to hear.
"No!" Kiba yelled.
"You already told them you did. You can't deny it now." Shino said.
"Shut up! If you hadn't said anything, they never would have known!" Kiba yelled.
"I was pointing out that Naruto gets mad when it comes to Sasuke like you do when it comes to Hinata. You could have thought of a way to say it without making it so obvious." Shino said.
"Shut up!" Kiba said.
"But seriously, Naruto still asks me out on dates." Sakura said.
"This might be the exact reason he still asks you on dates Sakura, so he has something to cover it up with." Kakashi said.
"Yeah right. And what if I said yes?" Sakura said.
"He knows you never will. He still acts like an idiot Sakura but he's not the naive little kid he used to be." Kakashi stated.
"Still, I find it hard to believe that Naruto has a crush on Sasuke." Sakura said.
"Who has a crush on Sasuke?" Lee asked.
"I thought you were with Naruto." Sakura said.
"He wants to be left alone." Lee said.
"Oh god, Shino, I think you're getting at something here." Sakura said.
"It does make sense," Neji pointed out, "He put his life on hold for training, to become stronger, for Sasuke."
"Woah! What are you guys talking about?" Lee asked confused.
"Love, Lee. And of the strongest kind." Gai said.
"Love is a beautiful thing, isn't it Gai sensei?" Lee asked.
"Yes Lee it is." Gai said and they started to talk about love and what not.

*3 hours later*

"Naruto! Come back, we're staying here for the night!" Kakashi called to Naruto. Naruto groaned, mumbled something, and walked back over to everyone. And they were all staring at him.
"What?" Naruto asked.
"Nothing." Sakura said.
"You're a bad liar Sakura." Naruto said.
"What was that?" Sakura through daggers at him.
"Woah! Never mind." Naruto said.
"(Sigh) We're going to have to find a way to deal with this." Sakura said.
"You should be fine, you're not a boy." Kiba whispered.
"I could try to talk to him." Tenten suggested.
"Sakura should." Everyone said.
"Why me?" Sakura asked.
"You're the closest to him. You were on his squad till he was Chunnin and you still go on missions with him a lot." Neji said.
"You know guys, he'd probably feel more comfortable talking to a guy about this." Kakashi said.
"Then you talk to him!" Everyone yelled.
"Okay! That's it! You're talking about me and I know it! What the hell is it?" Naruto yelled annoyed.
"(Sigh) Come on Naruto." Kakashi said starting to walk away.
"No. I want to know what this is about and I want to know now!" Naruto demanded.
"I'll tell you. Just come with me." Kakashi said.
"Humph. Fine." Naruto said and followed Kakashi. "What's this about Kakashi sensei?"
"They know." Kakashi said.
"Know what? I don't know what you're talking about." Naruto said. What did they know? That's all that was going through his head.
"That you're gay." Kakashi said.
"What? No I'm not! I like Sakura!" Naruto said.
"She was your childhood crush, sure but you don't have a crush on her anymore." Kakashi said. Naruto was silent. They had stopped at a lake and Naruto just stared into the water.
"It's not like I like any of them. So why are they acting weird around me? They obviously know who I like." Naruto stated.
"I can't tell you why. And yes, they know who you like." Kakashi said.
"(Sigh) Guess they would have had to find out sooner or later, right?" Naruto asked.
"And this was in between." Kakashi said.
"Yeah. If they found out sooner, that would have been good, or later would have been too." Naruto said.
"Because they would have come to terms with it and now they might try to keep you away from Sasuke or say that someone should go with you when we search for him." Kakashi said.
"Yeah... but they know and there's nothing I can do to change that." Naruto said.
"So what will you do?" Kakashi asked.
"I don't know. Nothing for now, you can head back, I'm going to stay out here for awhile." Naruto said.
"Alright." Kakashi said and walked back to everyone else.
"Why? Why is it always me?" Naruto whispered staring into the water and then looking up and gazing into the sky.
"I don't know, kit." Kyuubi said.
"It's not fair. I can't help who I love." Naruto said.
"I know, kit. Just don't talk to them unless it's necessary... at least until they get over it." Kyuubi said.
"Okay." Naruto said.

The next day came and went. Naruto didn't say a word which got his friends worried but they didn't say anything because they didn't feel comfortable around him. It was like that for the next 2 days, but then they were at the Cloud village and it was necessary that they talk to each other.
"Okay everyone, we're going in groups of two to search for Sasuke understand?" Kakashi asked.
"Yes!" Everyone said.
"Okay, I'll go with Naruto, Kiba with Shino, Gai with Lee, and Sakura, Tenten, and Neji will have to go together so that there's not one person going alone." Kakashi said.
"Got it." Naruto said.
"Understood." Everyone else said.
"Let's go Lee!" Gai said.
"Yes Gai sensei!" Lee said and they dashed off.
"Ready Akamaru?" Kiba asked.
"Arf, arf!" Akamaru barked.
"Then let's go!" Kiba yelled. And Kiba and Shino left.
"Are you guys ready?" Neji asked.
"Yeah!" Sakura and Tenten said.
"Let's go!" Sakura added. And they left.
"What are we waiting for Kakashi sensei? Let's go!" Naruto said and was about to leave when Kakashi said something.
"Wait Naruto. Are you okay?"
"Yeah. Why wouldn't I be?"
"Well it's just that you didn't talk at all since they found out and it's not like you to be so quiet."
"I know but why talk to them, they obviously wouldn't want to talk to me, there's nothing wrong. I'll be my talkative self again when they get used to the fact that I'm gay." Naruto smiled.
"I see. Then let's go." Kakashi said.
"Yeah!" Naruto said and they dashed off to go search for Sasuke.

*1 hour later*

"Kakashi sensei, where are these cells anyway? It's been an hour." Naruto stated.
"I don't know. We have to find them first." Kakashi said.
"Okay. But we've been here before... 5 times." Naruto said.
"(sigh) I know Naruto. This place is unknown." Kakashi said.
"If this place hates Sasuke so much and are going to execute him then why wouldn't they keep him in a jail inside the Raikage building?" Naruto asked.
"It's too dangerous to go in there. We have to hope he's not there." Kakashi said.
"So we can't go there because 'it's too dangerous'," Naruto asked, "No. I don't care what the odds are I'll go in there alone if I have too! I'm going to save Sasuke!"
"No you won't! If the Raikage finds you, you're dead!" Kakashi said.
"If! If the Raikage finds me! He might not!" Naruto persisted.
"And he might find you! This whole mission is a failure if he does!" Kakashi said.
"Fine! I'll wait! But if we don't find him in time, I'm going in there and I'll go alone!" Naruto said.
"No you will not take one step in the Raikage's place!" Kakashi said.
"Because it's too dangerous, right? But what's too dangerous if it's to save the person who is most precious to you?" Naruto asked. Kakashi didn't say anything, he was right, there was nothing to dangerous if it for your most precious person.
"Fine. But not until the day before the end of the week, got it?" Kakashi asked.
"Got it!" Naruto said.
"I won't be able to come with you, I'll have to keep watch for everyone else but they can go if they want." Kakashi said.
"Alright." Naruto said. And they started to search for Sasuke. Any hint to where he might be. But so far nothing. The day ended and they had nothing. They did the same the next day and got nothing. And before long if was the day before the end of the week, Naruto was going to go to the Raikage's building to see if Sasuke was there.
"Where are you going?" Sakura asked.
"To look for Sasuke." Naruto said.
"It's too late. Give up." Sakura said.
"No. He's probably in the Raikage's building. I thought that all along but when I told Kakashi he convinced me to wait this long. He knows I'm going. If you want to come, you can and I don't blame you if you don't." Naruto said.
"You're crazy, Naruto. You know that... but no I'm not going to take the chance of getting myself killed for him. I won't go that far. And I know I can't change your mind either," Sakura said, "So just be careful, alright?"
"Of course! The idea is to get Sasuke back without being found out. I'll be back and hopefully with Sasuke." Naruto said.
"Yeah... good luck." Sakura said.
"Thanks." Naruto said and ran to Kakashi to tell him he was going now and then dashed off to the Raikage's building. He managed to get in without anyone noticing, but now he had to find out where the jails were in this place. He walked around, looking. He hoped Sasuke was here and he wasn't doing this for nothing. That everything he did wasn't a waste. He opened doors and found nothing. Then he was at the Raikage's door, he gulped at how close he was, he knew that in there the Raikage was sleeping, he remembered him well, he wasn't nice. But then to his right, he noticed another door. He gulped again, if Sasuke was in there, odds where he was guarded and the Raikage's room was so close, but nevertheless he opened the door and to his relief, if only a little, no one was there. But there were stairs, going down, leading somewhere. He went down them and then he saw Sasuke, laying on a bed. He was curled up in a ball. There was blood too. He was severely injured.
"Sasuke!" Naruto whispered alarmed.
"N-Naruto? Is that you?" Sasuke asked. He sounded weak. It hurt Naruto to see him like this. To know he was weak, he'd never seen him like this and he hated it.
"Yeah." Naruto whispered back to him.
"What are you doing here?" Sasuke asked.
"Saving you of course." Naruto whispered. He was looking around, trying to think of a way to get him out.
"You shouldn't be. You could get killed." Sasuke said.
"I'm getting annoyed of hearing that. Do you know where the key is?" Naruto asked. Sasuke shook his head no.
"Leave. I'm not worth it." Sasuke said.
"Don't say that!" Naruto whispered. "I'm not leaving. You can't change my mind."
Sasuke was quiet for awhile, just watching Naruto looking around, trying to find something so that he could get him out.
"It's not chakra resistant." Sasuke said.
"What? Are you serious?" Naruto asked. Sasuke nodded.
Naruto then took out his sword and put the nature element wind in it, and cut the bars, which he grabbed before they could hit the floor and make unwanted noise, put them down on the ground, sheathed his sword, and walked inside the cell.
"I'm gonna get you out of here." Naruto said. Sasuke nodded. So Naruto picked him up bridle style, and walked out of the Raikage's building and dashed from building to building back to where Kakashi and everyone was waiting, or more likely sleeping. When he got there he was surprised to see everyone awake and waiting for him.
"Naruto! You idiot! You shouldn't have done that!" Kiba yelled at him.
"Sakura. You didn't." Naruto said.
"Actually no. Kakashi sensei did." Sakura smiled.
"Ah. Well never mind that, Sasuke's severely injured!" Naruto said and then all eyes were on Sasuke. He didn't like all the attention either. Naruto walked over to Sakura and put Sasuke down, and then she went over the wounds and healed all of them.
"There. He's fine now." Sakura said.
"That's good." Naruto smiled. Despite the fact that he'd been healed, he still felt a little bit of pain, but he knew it'd be gone by the morning. He was also tired and wanted to sleep, but he didn't know where he was going to sleep. So he kept quiet as everyone told Naruto how much of an idiot he was for going into the Raikage's building and looking for Sasuke, especially alone. Sasuke really did agree with them but was grateful Naruto did show up or he knew he'd be dead tomorrow.
"Are you done yet?" Naruto asked after they were all catching their breath.
"No!" They all screamed and went back to trying to catch their breath.
"Kakashi sensei, did you really have to wake them up. I'm not gonna get ANY sleep tonight." Naruto said.
"Yet, even if you knew this would happen when you got back, you would have done it anyway." Kakashi said.
"That's not the point!" Naruto said. He looked at Sasuke who had been staring at him the whole time, he looked tired. "You can go to sleep you know." Naruto said.
"Where?" Sasuke asked.
"There." Naruto said pointing to his pillow and blankets. Sasuke looked and immediately knew it was his.
"That's yours." Sasuke stated.
"I know but it doesn't look like I'm going to get to sleep tonight anyway." Naruto said. Sasuke was silent for a while.
"What if you do though. Where are you going to sleep?" Sasuke asked.
"I'll figure it out, don't worry about it. You look like you haven't slept in ages, you need it more than I do." Naruto said. Everyone had their breath back by now but let them talk, they might as well wait for Sasuke to fall asleep because Naruto was right, it looked like he hadn't slept in ages and he shouldn't suffer because Naruto was being an idiot, an idiot that saved Sasuke and if it wasn't for him, Sasuke would be dead.
"(Sigh) Fine." Sasuke gave in and crawled into Naruto's 'bed.'
"Night." Naruto smiled.
"Night." Sasuke mumbled back instantly falling asleep.
"Okay. Now that Sasuke's asleep, back to telling you how much of an idiot you are!" Sakura said.
An half an hour passed and they were still at it. They were saying the same things over and over again, until they thought of something else for his stupidity.
"Okay, okay. You guys obviously are going to complain the whole night, so we might as well start heading back to Kohona." Kakashi said.
"What about Sasuke? He needs to sleep." Sakura said.
"Someone can carry him." Kakashi said.
"Naruto." Sakura said.
"Huh?" Naruto said. He wasn't listening the whole time they had been yelling to him. And he hadn't realised they'd stopped yelling at him.
"You can carry Sasuke." Sakura said. Naruto just looked confused.
"You tuned us out 5 minutes after we started yelling at you didn't you?" Sakura asked.
"Yeah." Naruto said.
"Well, we're leaving now, because we were going to yell the whole night, and I'm saying you should carry Sasuke, since he needs sleep." Sakura said.
"Oh okay." Naruto said. He picked Sasuke up and moved him then grabbed his pillow and put it in his bag and put his bag on. He thought Sasuke might as well keep the blanket on him so he wouldn't wake up from the cold. Then Naruto put Sasuke on his back, Kakashi said he'd carry his things for him and they started to walk back to Kohona, they would have ran but that would have woke Sasuke up.
