===== Chapter 1 ======
Sakura's green eyes fluttered open to the bright light of a new day. She was in a strange room, and yet it was still familiar somehow. Then she heard it, the voice of her mother who she hadn't heard from 7 years ago. Everything that had happen until now came back to her as tears started to fall down her face. The long ten years of war, the death of her family and friends, the last words of Naruto.
"Change the future. And live a happy life. I will leave everything to all of you."
She was in the past, in her old room, in the Konoha that was still full of life.
Sakura laughed as she cried, half wanting to laugh, half wanting to cry. Laugh for the joy of a peaceful home. Cry for the lost of Naruto, her brother. In those past years, she had come to see Naruto as an older brother. He had always been there for her in the hard times, he had given them all the strength to stand up to the enemies and the hope to continue to an encouraging future. In the end, he had given his life to let them have a second change, even though he was the one who devised this change the most.
"Sakura? Sweetie, are you alright? What happened?" Her mother's voice snapped Sakura out of her thought. She looked at her mother. There, standing in the door, Haruno Masaki, long pink hair reached her back, green eyes filled of worries …but alive. Sakura shook her head and smiled.
"It's nothing, mom. I just had a nightmare, just let me cry a little more." And after that, I promised I will change.
Tsunade stepped out of the hotel she had been staying last night, Shizune right behind her. Her eyes were no longer red from crying. When she woke up this morning, the first thing she did was wake Shizune up too, and explained to the young woman what happened. It took a lot to make Shizune believe her. And that afternoon, or now, they set out towards Konoha. She had a little grandson waiting for her there, and Tsunade didn't plan to waste anymore time.
The first thing Anko saw was when she had thrown open the door to Kotetsu and Izumo's apartments is them, dancing around in happiness. A few shinobi passed by to look at them oddly, shrugged, and continued on whenever they were doing.
"Is that really you guys?" Anko asked from the door.
"Yes, Anko-taichou. We made it back. We are really back." Kotetsu answered, finally stopped dancing. Izumo, too had stopped, nodding while laughing with some tear in his eyes. In the old future, both Kotetsu and Izumo were ANBU under Anko, who was the head ANBU of T&I and also the new snake-sannin of Konoha.
"Yeah, I know. I already checked the calendar; it is a week before the guardian day of academy." Anko said, smiling a little. Sure, she was just as happy as those two, but time had taught Anko how to keep her emotions hidden. She no longer was the short-tempered woman anymore.
"The third exam of the Hokage-sama?" Izumo ask, remember what had happens in that day to their Hokage. Not the Sandaime, their Rokudaime Hokage, Namikaze, Uzumaki Naruto. What happened on that day was a really common knowledge in future.
"That's the one." Anko nodded, and added with a sad look. "Although, you may want to stop calling him that, Naruto, here is not the Hokage, he is not the same Naruto we all know."
A sad atmosphere entered the room. The air weighed heavily around it, but was quickly cleaned by Izumo a few seconds later.
"He may not be...yet, but that doesn't mean anything. Hokage-sama will always have my loyalty. He maybe young, but he still is Naruto-sama."
"Yeah, we may not call him Hokage, but he still and will always is the Rokudaime Hokage of Konohageku no Sato." Kotetsu said serious.
For a minute, they just stood there, looking at each other. Until Anko smirked, and held out her hand.
"For the world." She said. And both Izumo and Kotetsu broke out laughing. That was a code they use in the future. The meaning of it, only they knew.
"For human race." Izumo said, also held out his hand.
"For Konoha." Kotetsu add right after.
"For Hokage-sama." All of them shouted.
Nara Shikamaru was a lazy person, everyone knew that. He barely does anything, liked to lie down and watch clouds, and always sees everything as trouble. So imagine his mother's surprise when she came to wake him up for the school day, and was greeted with the sight of him sitting on his desk, writing something. That was very strange, for Shikamaru usually sleep past lunch unless he got school. When she asks him what he doing, he just waves her out and says it was a project in school, nothing she needed to care about. Closing the door behind her, she shrugged. Oh well, at least now, he was not as lazy as his dad anymore. And that, to her, is a good thing.
When Iruka walked in the classroom that day, it only took him a few seconds to realize that some of his students are different today.
First out, Shikamaru do not sleeping like he used to do. He sat on the last seat next to Choji, but his eyes are glared at the last Uchiha who was being an emo like he usually do, ignore everyone. Also, it seemed like Kiba was doing the same thing as Shikamaru. Iruka wonder if Sasuke had done something bad to them.
Second, Sakura and Ino, the two most annoying fan girl of Sasuke, are ignoring him. Instead, Sakura are talking with Naruto in a very friendly way. Didn't she hate him yesterday? How could she change over one night? And Ino was whisper something to Hinata, whatever it is, it's make she blush a deed red. Strange, the two of them never talked with each other before, and now they are best friends?
In the end, Iruka decision to leave them alone. It was not like he could do anything about it anyway.
This chapter ends here.
Next chapter will be the waking up of others who were not in this chapter, and also what had happened in class before Iruka walked in.
Thanks for reading. Please review.
