READ ME FIRST: So before you begin reading there are some things I would love to clear up for you.
1)I accept criticism not flames, all that decide to flame me without any proper allegations will be posted and dissected for any and all errors before being blocked. I'm a Journalism Major I know what I'm doing :)
2) Before the wonderful creator of Naruto came out with the design for the parents and other key characters, I had already had an idea in mind of how I wanted the characters to be, so I'm going with my idea or else my story will be ruined! Besides it's a fanfiction if I wanted to make Hidan spit fire every time he talked I would, and I could get away with it.
3) I try to stick close to the story line, because I really like where it's going, however it's not going to be exactly precise so I apologize before hand on those errors. I'm not sure about the whole Japanese suffix's that they use and because of that I don't feel comfortable butchering another language so there will be no 'san' or 'sama' ect after every name. If there are spelling or grammatical errors I've tried to fix all of them so I doubt there will be any, however I'm only human and can pretty much promise there will be an error or two somewhere
If there are any questions you can always PM me :) Thank you for reading this and I hope you enjoy. Anyone who didn't read this will be beheaded.
Chapter 1: Life is a Bitch
It was one of those rare moments where my brother's friends, my sister's friends and my friend were all in the same room. Surprisingly enough the world didn't explode like we were convinced would happen. I had finally graduated from High School and decided to move in with Sarah. In the process of moving I had recruited my brother-Drew, Tyler, and Charlie for muscle. I also brought my friend Sid along for her company. Apparently my sister-Sarah was thinking along the same lines, because she brought her friends Lakyn and Morgan. For a job well done on getting everything moved in we all decided to make three bags of popcorn and watch Pirates of the Caribbean.
As Sid reached for the last bit of popcorn the lights flickered and shut the T.V. off.
"Rip off!" Sid said crossing her arms.
"I know it was right at the good part!" Sarah whined.
"Good part? It was only Orlando Bloom making out with Kiara Knightly." Drew scoffed.
"Every Orlando Bloom part is the good part." Morgan pointed out.
"Whatever Johnny Depp totally owns Orlando Bloom." I said matter-of-factly.
"No joke Jack Sparrow is freaking awesome!" Sid said through a mouthful of popcorn.
"Kids these days."Lakyn said like a disapproving parent.
Since Sarah and her friends were 3 to 4 years older than Sid and I. They feel it is in their right to play mother hen around us.
"Is there anymore popcorn left?" Tyler asked stealing our bag.
"Hey! I was eating that!" Sid complained reaching over to steal it back.
However my brother felt that since he and his friend were 2 to 3 years older than us any food we had on us was free grabs. Meaning Sid and I were starved on most days.
"Is someone going to start the movie back up?" Charlie grumbled.
"No, but you can." I inserted.
"Thanks for offering." Sid smiled.
After a few more encouraging words a.k.a Drew and Tyler tackling him into submission, which he could have totally beat them. Charlie got up to restart the movie. As soon as he touched the DVD player all the lights went off and sent Charlie flying backwards into his seat. The T.V. was glowing blue and it almost looked like it was moving.
"I'm never touching a T.V. ever again." Charlie proclaimed.
I'm pretty sure Sarah let out a strangled scream at one moment, but I was too focused on the T.V.
"So who wants to go touch it?" Tyler asked.
"What?! No! No one is touching it!" Sarah yelled.
"How else is it going to get fixed?" Drew asked but made no motion to get up.
"Charlie, go touch it." Tyler said after a moment.
"Hell no, it rejected me the last time." He said crossing his arms.
"Well go make up with her and I'm sure she'll be nicer." Tyler grinned.
"I've sworn off touching TV's" Charlie answered.
"Tell her you're sorry for touching her the wrong way then." Drew laughed.
"You three are idiots." I groaned.
"Shut up Liz." Drew answered.
"Yeah Liz, no one wants your input." Charlie commented.
"Gah Liz, why must you say words?" Tyler grinned.
I couldn't help laughing those three were hilarious.
"So what are we supposed to do about the blue glowing light on the TV?" Morgan questioned.
"I guess turn it off?" Lakyn suggested.
We all looked to Sarah. She was freakishly smart surely she knew what to do. Sarah sighed and got up very slowly making her way to the TV. Her finger barely pressed the power button before she started glowing blue herself. Drew, Tyler, Charlie, Lakyn, and Morgan instantly made a grab for her. Sid and I went to tug the power cord loose. As soon as we did it was like someone had switched off gravity. Sid and I grabbed on to each other not seeing anything else to hang on to. I wrapped my arms around her not wanting to be separated. I also felt my protective instincts kick in, Sid was a good four to five inches shorter than me and tooth pick thin. She was just so tiny.
Sid and I finally landed hard on a dirt road somewhere in an alley of sorts.
"Ouch! That hurt." Came my whispy child-like reply. I stopped for a moment confused and tried to clear my throat. "Sid?" I asked my voice still small, high pitched, whispy.
"Why do you sound funny? Wow that's weird! And why is everything bigger?"Came Sid's cutesy reply.
I finally turned around and saw Sid looked like she was six years old again. Her long brown hair was cut short right above her shoulders, parted on the right side, and her bangs were put into a hair tie tucked behind her ear perfectly. Her face was rounder than normal and her brown eyes wide and big.
"Wow you look like your six." She said poking my face I pulled away.
"Come on we need to find the others." I complained swatting her hand away again.
That's when I noticed I was in a pink sundress that came to my knees with no sleeves and black sandals. Pink! I hate pink! What kind of devil person would put me in pink! Even as I thought about that I couldn't help, but love the way it looked on me like I was a princess. Crap I really was six again!
Sid was in a flowy baby blue tank top and black shorts with the same sandals I had on. Sid grinned and started laughing.
"You're in a dress." She grinned.
I pouted and stomped my foot. "Quit laughing! I don't like it! I feel girly." I whined.
I finally grabbed her hand and started leading her down the alley. Even as a six year old I had Sid beat by three inches. We walked into the main part of the town and noticed all the stores and buildings there were. Everything was so big! I caught a glance of me in the windows as we past them. My hair was beach blonde and was in long perfect ringlets. My hazel eyes were big and at the moment dark in color. My dimples were way more pronounced then what I remembered them being. Finally my skin was a pale princess shade of white. I was cute!
"Liz doesn't that person look kinda like Sarah?" Sid asked pointing her out in the crowd.
I looked to where she was pointing and made eye contact with a girl who looked like she was seventeen or so give or take. Her eyes were the prettiest shade of sky blue I've ever seen, and she had dark blonde hair that was pulled up into a ponytail.
"Sawah?" I asked.
The pretty lady burst into tears and ran to scoop me up into her arms.
"Lizzie? This is you isn't it?" She cried.
"Yeah except I somehow managed to turn six." I complained.
She was still crying and I wasn't sure why and it bothered me. I don't like seeing Sarah or anyone crying.
"Sawah, I'm sorry I'll help you figure out how to get back." I offered.
She pulled away and stared at me with blood shot eyes. "What are you talking about?" She finally asked.
I shrugged. "I don't know I figured we should all start planning something out because this scenery looks really familiar, but I don't know why."
"Liz we gave up on that idea years ago." She explained.
I gave her a confused look and looked at Sid who looked just as confused as I was. "Nah uh. We just landed here." I answered.
Sarah shook her head. "No Liz we have been here for five years." She said softly.
I pouted at her. "No! We pulled the plug and now we are here as six year olds. Fix it Sawah!" I demanded.
Sarah gave me a light bop on head making me wince slightly. "Liz, quit acting like a brat." She said sternly.
"I'm telling on you!" I instantly said.
Sarah smiled. "To who?"
"Drewbie!" I yelled.
Sarah laughed and poked me in the side making me giggle. "Come on lets go to the house." Sarah said grabbing my hand.
"What house?" Sid asked grabbing Sarah's other hand.
"With some help from the Hokage; Lakyn, Morgan, the boys, and I finally bought a house." Sarah explained.
"What's a Hokage?" Sid asked.
"We're in the Naruto world." I answered in amazement.
Sarah gave a smug smile that says it gets way better than that. "Close but not quite. Wait till we get to the house I'll explain everything there."
I nodded and grinned really big.
A lady with a bag of apples passed by and smiled at me. "Well, aren't you just a pretty little girl." She cooed.
I instantly growled at her and kept walking.
"What was that?" Sid laughed.
I hung my head in shame. "I'm still in that phase as a six year old?" I asked.
Sarah smiled. "You say that as if it ever left."
I stuck my tongue out at her and stomped on. Sarah took us to a house that was a simple farm house with a wraparound porch that was two stories tall. I stared at it in amazement.
"It must have taken a bazillion dollars to buy." I said in awe.
"Plus a katrillion more!" Sid put in.
"I wanna go exploring!" I shouted.
"Me too!" Sid shouted.
Before Sarah could protest we let go of her hands and raced in. Sid beat me to the door and made it fly wide open. I ran in after her giggling before a big leg got in my way and knocked me down.
I groaned and rubbed my head. "Ouch what was that for." I complained. I looked up and saw Drewbie staring me down in disbelief.
His sea green eyes looked like they were about to cry as he scratched the back of his shaggy dirty blonde hair.
"Liz?" He asked his voice thick with emotion.
I smiled at him and hopped up. "Hey Drewbie!"
He dropped to his knees and pulled me into a bear hug. "We thought you were dead." He cried.
I froze. Sarah said Sid and I were gone for five years. Could they really have thought I was dead?
"Drew baby I thought you said you were too tough to cry." I said giving him a watery laugh.
In the end I started crying to and hung on to him.
"You're real." He finally said wiping his eyes.
I pinched my skin. "Ouch. Yep I'm real." I laughed.
"But how-?" Drew started to question, but then looked up at Sarah.
Sarah shrugged. "I think when we fell through we were all touching the TV, where the two little kids grabbed the power cord. So when we fell through we went through one way causing us to land five years earlier. Liz and Sid however fell through the other way causing their landing time to be five years after we fell through." Sarah answered.
I felt my eyes glaze over at 'think' then after that War of Change started playing in my head and I ignored her ever since. I looked up at Drew and saw his eyes were doing the same thing.
Sarah sighed. "It's like that whole thing with Spock and the evil guy in Star Trek at the very beginning." She simplified.
"Oh." Drew and I said in unison.
Sarah face palmed her head then shook it in irritation.
"Hey, so I found a small child in my room and she keeps demanding to play with my legos. Will someone make it leave and tell her I have no legos." Tyler said coming down the stairs.
"What boy doesn't have legos?" Sid huffed.
"Tyler!" I cheered running up to him and giving him a huge hug.
"Other small child." He said awkwardly. "Wait a minute. Is this?" Tyler started asking studying both Sid and I. "Liz? Sid?" He questioned.
We both smiled and tackled his legs. He was bean pole thin and managed to get out of the leg hold we had him in.
"Tyler, think about it, what kids are the only ones that would know what legos are?" Sarah questioned.
"Well sorry if I think it's a little surprising to see these two after…years." He stated.
"Five." Sarah stated sighing.
"That long, well there you go." Tyler smiled.
Sarah rolled her eyes then looked up the stairs. "Lakyn! Morgan! Charlie! Get down here!" Sarah yelled.
Within a few seconds Morgan was sliding down the banister while Lakyn took the steps.
"Sup?" Morgan asked.
"Do they look familiar to you?" Sarah asked smugly.
"Oh my goodness!" Lakyn said scooping Sid up. "They are so small and adorable!"
Sid tried to pull away getting Lakyn's wild curly brunet hair caught in her throat.
"I know!" Morgan squealed. "This is how I picture Liz every time I see her! Now I don't have to picture it anymore!" Morgan grinned pulling me into a hug.
I sunk into it and hugged her back. Thankfully Morgan's blonde hair was bobbed. "Yeah I don't know how we got small."
"Yeah this is fucked up!" Sid shouted.
Morgan reached over and bopped her on the head making Sid wince. "What the hell was that for?" She asked only for Lakyn to repeat that action.
"You're six." Morgan answered. "Six year olds don't talk like that."
"That's stupid! I was eighteen five seconds ago." Sid complained.
I groaned. "We're going to have to go through puberty again." I complained
"Life is a bitch today!" Sid shouted receiving another bop on the head.
I looked up the stairs to see Charlie coming down. He scratched his hair that was darker then Tyler's and stretched his perfectly toned muscled arms above his head. He looked down at us with his dark brown eyes waved at us and made his way to the kitchen. Well that was Charlie at least.
"So what have you guys been doing in the five years, you've been here?" I asked looking up at all of them.
Sarah and everyone shared a look.
"What haven't we done?" Tyler asked laughing.
Sarah shook her head. "I don't even know where to begin." She stated in thought.
"How about the beginning?" Sid suggested giggling.
I laughed with her. "Yeah right after you guys fell through." I prompted.
Sarah nodded. "Ok it all began like this-."
