So this chapter took longer to write than I intended plus it's almost entirely dialogue so more filler sorry. Thanks to anyone who is actually reading this. Constructive criticism welcome.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto

Sakura looked ready to do business which on her five year old face looked pretty funny and Kiba wanting revenge for Sakura's laughing fit the previous day decided to voice this, "you look funny" (he remembered immediately after saying this Sakura's infamous temper and all the times he'd seen Naruto inadvertently insult her and be on the receiving end of that monster strength of hers). Seeing the stormy look on her face he decided in order to preserve his life he should hide behind his mother for protection who happened to have come to the door behind him.

Tsume seeing her sons plan stepped out of the way, "oh no if you're going to insult a girl, you have to face the consequences for it".

Kiba cursed his mother who seemed to be enjoying his predicament, Sakura who seemed to be silently fuming stepped towards him grabbing the collar of his shirt and instead of hitting him as he'd expected instead started to drag him towards his room.

Watching the two five years old leave Tsume and Mebuki turned to each other, "so you're Sakura's mother?"

The rest of their conversation was muffled by Kiba's door being shut by a somewhat angry Sakura, "we need to talk"

Kiba nodded dumbly glad that he wasn't being hit before noticing she was putting something on his door "what are you doing?"

Sakura didn't look up from what she was doing, "putting up privacy seals",

"And when did you learn to make privacy seals",

"During my apprenticeship to lady Tsunade, I saw how they used them in the Hokage tower and decided to learn how to draw them so I looked it up in a book",

"When did you draw it up?"

"This morning but that doesn't matter we need to talk right now"

Kiba glad that she seemed to have forgotten his earlier indiscretion gladly changed the subject, "so how did you end up in the past with me?"

Flashback/Forward?

Sakura was not having a good day for one she couldn't find any of her teammates who she'd been looking for ever since their apparent victory in fact she couldn't seem to find anyone at least anyone who was alive though she didn't like to think about who she'd seen die. Team ten, team Guy, Sai, Kakashi and even Tsunade were all gone so even though they'd won this war it didn't make her feel any better most of her precious people were gone. Which was why she was searching so desperately for her remaining teammates now, so she wouldn't be alone.

She sensed someone moving towards her some distance away and picked up the pace because she would know that chakra anywhere, "Naruto!"

Naruto looked up at her before grinning, "I knew it was you I could sense, we don't have much time I need to send you back in time to help Kiba before my body gives out"

Sakura blinked at him confused, "what are you talking about?"

"I sent Kiba back in time to fix all of this and I promised I'd send some help, and before you ask how it would take way to long for me to explain cause I don't entirely understand it myself. Besides there are some things I need to tell you before you go"

"I'm not going anywhere you're hurt I need to heal you now" she said moving towards him.

He backed away shaking his head, "there's nothing you can do for me I've taken too much damage all I can do now is try and fix everything but you need to know a few things before I send you"

Sakura blinked back some tears, "why won't you let me at least try and save you I've already lost too many people to this war!"

Naruto flinched at her shout "if this plan succeeds it'll save everyone, which is why I need to explain some things before you go including something you need to know about the Uchiha massacre. I know this sound like a lie but Itachi didn't kill them because he went crazy or anything like that he did it on orders from the council or specifically Danzo, because the Uchiha were plotting a coup d'état against the village".

"How do you know all this Naruto?"

"I heard it from Obito and Itachi, Sasuke filled in some of the details before he…"

Though Sakura knew deep down what Naruto didn't want to say she asked anyway, "before he what?"

Naruto looked down, "before he died"

Sakura fell to her knees, "he's gone too?"

Naruto nodded grimly looking back into her eyes, "I explained the time travel idea to him before he... you know, and he told me all the details about the Uchiha massacre who ordered it and everything cause he thought it'd help whoever I sent back. I tried to send him back in time but I don't think it worked I don't think I put enough chakra into it. I think he died before I could send his mind back in time"

Sakura got to her feet again now determined to fix things because what was the point of winning this war if nearly everyone she cared about was dead or dying, "Send his mind?"

"Yeah when I send you your body will essentially die but by sending your mind back it'll create an alternate reality where none of this never happened or something like that, it's kind of confusing"

"How did you explain all this to Kiba?"

Naruto's eyes widened before he scratched the back of his head sheepishly "about that…"

Sakura's eyes narrowed, "you didn't explain any of that to Kiba did you? How did you even find him?"

Naruto still looking guilty looked at the ground again, "well once Kurama, Shukaku and Gyūki explained to me that I had enough chakra to send three people I figured I would explain all this too you so you could explain it to him. You're better at explaining stuff than I am. And he found me after Sasuke… I guess he sniffed me out, he seemed pretty distraught".

"Obito sealed more than just the fox inside of you then? And you sent Kiba into the past without telling him any of this that seems kind of reckless what if you hadn't gotten to me in time!"

"Kurama and the other bijuu told me I have about two hours before this reality fades or something and I knew I could get too you in time I could sense where you were"

"Still I don't think that was exactly fair to Kiba, did you at least tell him you were planning on sending me too?"

"No" Naruto said looking guilty again, "I did tell him to meet whoever I send at Ichiraku".

"Ichiraku, why am I not surprised? Who's the third person going to be?"

Naruto looked thoughtful for a second, "I don't know I can't sense anyone nearby but if I find anyone I'll send them your way, now this may feel a little weird"

Sakura realized a second too late what was about to occur when there was a bright flash and then nothing.

Upon hearing Sakura's story Kiba torn between being shocked at the revelation about the Uchiha and pissed at Naruto for not explaining anything to him he chose the latter, "I am so going to kick his ass once he's old enough where I won't feel guilty, he didn't explain jackshit to me"

Sakura rolled her eyes, "is that seriously all you have to say, I just told you that the Uchiha were planning a coup d'état and Itachi who all this time we've believed to be a crazy murderer is in fact on our side in a way".

"Well I wasn't sure what to do with that information so I responded to the part that was easier to process, what does it mean for us anyway?"

"I don't know I mean we already knew Danzo was bad news"

"Danzo is the guy who almost became Rokudaime right?"

"Yeah and Sasuke killed him, now we know why"

"So the Uchiha were going to start a civil war, should we let the massacre happen then?"

Sakura shook her head, "I don't know about that we should at least try to change it, I think we should talk to Itachi and try to get him on side".

Kiba does not like this idea one bit mostly because it means getting close to Itachi who (though he would never admit it aloud) scares the crap out of him, mostly because he's not sure he could take him even if he had his full strength right now because even at eleven with no mangekyou Itachi is not someone to be taken lightly. He feels vulnerable in this body and he's pretty sure that if Itachi doesn't believe they're who they say they are (because who the hell would) he will probably try to kill them and there wouldn't be a lot they could do about it if he did.

Kiba decides to voice his doubts, "Talking to Itachi seems like the worst idea ever"

"If he's on our side later on it'll make our job that much easier to do"

"Well yeah but he'll never ever believe us even if we know stuff we shouldn't know, he'll just think we're spies, anyway having him know we're from the future won't change what the Uchiha are planning"

"Okay let's hold off talking to Itachi for now, but we still need to get close to the Uchiha clan so we can try and work out their motivations for doing something like that, your mother is the Inuzuka clan head right?"

Kiba narrowed his eyes, "yes, why?"

"Well she goes to meetings with the other major clan heads, so it shouldn't be too hard to find what clan relations are like?"

"It'll be a little strange if I suddenly take an interest in politics and anyway I can tell you right now that my clan didn't get on with the Uchiha. I may have been pretty oblivious at this age but I picked up that much in fact I don't remember the Uchiha being friendly with anyone outside of their own clan".

Sakura pondered this information for a second, "Well just try to confirm that the Uchiha aren't friendly with the other clans, we should befriend Sasuke as our in with them, then at least if we decide to talk to Itachi we can get close to him"

"If we're befriending Sasuke we should befriend Naruto, you know because his shitty childhood is something that's easier to change at least a little"

Sakura looked at him like he was dumb (which may have been true), "I thought that was an unspoken assumption, of course we're befriending Naruto".

Kiba nodded before remembering something important, "wait, who's the third time traveler, you mentioned some people were dead who I didn't know had died who does that leave as possible candidates if there even is a third person".

Sakura looked sad at the mention of their fallen comrades "The people who were already dead when I got sent back were Shikamaru, Ino, Chouji, Lee, Tenten, Neji, Guy, Kakashi, Sasuke, Sai, Tsunade and a load of other people"

"Shit that leaves hardly anyone, if you add my team to that list, I guess we can assume Naruto would only send someone he trusts, but that leaves a lot of people from all over the elemental nations. Why did Naruto have to be so damn popular?"

"Let's work on the assumption that we are alone, they'll contact us if they exist, since unless Naruto really screwed up they should know about us".

"Well what should we do first we have about two years before the Uchiha massacre, so where should we start?"

Sakura looked thoughtful for a second, "the easiest thing to do would be befriending Naruto. We should start off easy, until we can defend ourselves anyway, I feel weak as a puppy right now"

"All I really have right now is my good sense of smell but since I was pretty much born with that, it's not saying much, I think I have enough chakra to do that exercise where you get the leaf to stick to your head"

"You have the advantage I only originally started training to be a ninja when I started at the academy, and even then my chakra reserves were pretty bad until I was an active Genin for a while"

"I forget sometimes that you're from a civilian family, I mean in our group everyone had some sort of shinobi background except for you and maybe Lee. How much chakra do you have right now?"

"I can barely feel my chakra I don't think I'd be able to make the leaf stick to my head even with my perfect control" Sakura groaned frustrated.

"Were going to have to fix that, right now we are pretty helpless and Akamaru isn't going to be born for a couple of years yet so it's going to be a while before I can get back to full strength, and I guess until your reserves are bigger you're stuck too."

"We can still do target practice and practice taijutsu until we have enough chakra to do at least some our old techniques"

"We just need a place to train that's away from people"

Sakura smiled, "I've got a place in mind we just need to sneak away which I assume you can do already".

"It's easier when ma is out on a mission cause then I only have either my sister or one of my cousins watching me, it should be doable though"

Sakura nodded, "let's go now then"

"Where?"

"I want to show where we can train and look for Naruto and Sasuke"

"Are we sneaking out because you know my ma is home and she'll know as soon as we leave"

"What will she do when she senses we've left?"

"Follow us most likely"

"Well we can just look for Naruto and Sasuke today. I'll show you the place we can train at when your mother isn't around".

Kiba nodded and gestured towards his window, "so are we going to climb out my window then?"

"Yeah just let me remove these seals and we can go".

Next chapter will have chibi Naruto and they'll actually get to changing some stuff about the past.
