In Naruto's Mind

"Naruto."

"What. Where am I?" Groaned Naruto

"We're inside your mind right now"

"Oh…. Wait why is there an old man in my mind? And where are the others?" Replied a shocked Naruto.

"I'm a spirit of a past Avatar. My name is Roku, the tailed beasts seem to be blocked from communicating with you because of your short trip here." Said the now named Roku.

"Uh huh. What's an Avatar?" Asked Naruto.

"It was the Sage of the Sixth Paths answer to an unbalanced world. You see Naruto you disappeared thousands of years ago during that legendary fight with Madara. When you disappeared you took all of the tailed beasts with you. Their absence from the world cause great turmoil so the Sage created a being in order to fill that void. However nothing is as good as the original." Said the spirit.

"Wait thousands of years!" Naruto said.

"Yes. During your battle all those years ago Madara used his eyes to send you forward in time. And now he has been resurrected and is most likely coming for you to complete his plan he had so many years ago."

"What about the shinobi of this time or the Avatar?" asked Naruto

"I'm afraid the way of the shinobi died out long ago. While this caused a peaceful world to flourish the loss of such a way caused other losses among the people of this world such as loyalty, camaraderie and of course most knowledge of chakra.

"Oh I see." Naruto said with a small glint of sadness.

"The current Avatar also stands no chance against Madara. It was once his destiny to face another man but now the future is clouded. The Avatar is suppose to keep the world in balance but the child of prophecy is the only one who can end the cycle of hatred. This world, this time needs you Naruto." Said Roku.

"I still don't fully understand." Said Naruto.

"I will give you my knowledge of this world so you may better understand" Said the spirirt.

With that Roku closed his eyes and when he reopened them they were glowing a bright blue. Several beams of light then shot from his eyes and into Naruto's eyes. Suddenly his head was filled with the past events. He saw the war started by the Fire Nation, the destruction of the air temples and a brief history on bending but the suffering and killing brought him to tears. Everything he fought for all those years ago was for naught.

"I am sorry for what you have seen but you must in order to under…" Roku stopped mid word.

"What's wrong?"

"I feel as if my spirit is being pulled somewhere el…" Roku's spirit suddenly vanished.

In the Real World.

Naruto shot awake at the sudden flow of information in his mind. He looked around where he was. He had been sleeping in a strange looking sleeping bag on the tale of the creature that he escaped on a few days ago. He looked over to see a smoldering campfire; it was still night, and four other sleeping bags with people in them.

He recognized the boy with the ponytail and the girl with hair loops. He didn't recognize a smaller girl with short black hair. He moved onto the other figure he didn't recognize and saw the arrow tattoos. Naruto guest that this kid was the current Avatar based off of Roku's knowledge. 'I wonder how long I've been out' Naruto thought.

Naruto couldn't ponder long in the distance he saw a smoke column rising up and moving towards the camp. Naruto being in combat knew all to well what ever was creating that smoke was not here to deliver ramen and continue on its way.

Naruto quickly jumped to his feet and began to wake the others. He first went over to a sleeping Sokka. Naruto knelt down by his side and tried to wake him.

"Pow! Take that Fire Nation." Sokka grumbled in his sleep.

"Come on get up someone is coming and I don't think they're friends." Naruto said as he shook Sokka.

"Huh wha? Oh its you whiskers go back to sleep." Sokka said to Naruto half asleep.

"Hey! Didn't you hear me! something bad is on its way…. and it's not Whiskers!" Naruto yelled and slapped Sokka.

"What was that for!" yelled Sokka. Naruto simply pointed at the plume of smoke slowing working its way towards them. "Oh."

Sokka quickly got up and went to wake Aang and Toph. Which left Katara to Naruto.

Naruto rushed over to Katara. "Come on princess time to get up." Naruto said as he nudged Katara awake.

Katara's eyes open and connected Naruto's. In that instant Naruto saw a small amount of pain in here eyes and she saw the same in his.

"We need to get moving." With that said the group saddled up and began to put distance between them and the column of smoke.

"So you mean to tell me that I've been asleep for about two weeks? Asked Naruto.

"Give or take a few days." Said Sokka.

"uh huh. And you're Sokka, you're Toph, you're Katara and you're Aang right?" Said Naruto.

"Yup that's us but who are you?" Asked Aang.

"The names Naruto Uzumaki."

"It's nice to met you officially Whiskers" Said Sokka as a tick mark formed on Naruto's head.

"IT'S NOT WHISKERS!" Yelled Naruto.

"Um Naruto? Back when you first showed up you moved really fast almost like an airbender?" Asked Katara

"Katara Naruto can't be an air bender Aang is the last one left" Stated Sokka.

"Ok Sokka then how did Naruto save back in Omashu if he wasn't?" sneered Katara.

"Guys why don't you just ask?" said Aang.

They all then turned their heads waiting for Naruto to reply.

"Trade Secret." Said Naruto, which caused the others to sadden a bit.

With Iroh

It had been a few days since Zuko had left his good old uncle Iroh. Iroh was pouring a cup of tea and wondering just what will happen to the world. With the man who has the eyes of a god returned to the living just when will the hero who defeated him arrive as well. Suddenly Iroh was broken out of his thought by a messenger hawk from one of the oldest fire temples. The hawk carried an ancient sealed scroll and a note. Iroh, noticing the note was for him began to read it. 'So the hero was spotted in Omashu at the same time as the Avatar and I must get this scroll to him. And what's this "the Fire Nation is not what it seems." This can't be good.'

Hidden Leaf Village

The sun was finally shining and the world was starting to come to terms with the most recent war.

"Report." Said Tsunade.

"We have a plan to return Naruto to this time line." Said Kakashi.

"Explain."

Kakashi held up a scroll with an intricate seal written on it. It was similar to the seal used to seal the Nine Tailed Fox in Naruto but a bit different.

"If Naruto is indeed in the future and we can ensure this scroll gets to him this seal will act as a type on homing device. When Naruto sends his chakra into this seal it will release a pulse wave through out time and with what I've learned from Obito's jutsu I can lock onto it and open a gate."

"Very well Kakashi. Add some storage seals to the scroll as well no doubt Naruto may need some gear to help him. Until then we wait."

Back with Naruto

This group was defiantly fatigued as Naruto could see. Katara and Toph were at each other's throats, which led Toph to storm off, and Aang and Sokka seemed a bit annoyed. Being chased by possible hostiles will do that ecspecially when they don't let you sleep. All though Aang did have a good plan when they figured out how they were being tracked. But now Naruto found himself dodging flames from a woman called Azula and a man called Zuko

Naruto had been busy fighting Azula he hadn't noticed the others arrival.

Quickly with their combined forces they backed Azula into a corner.

"Well look at this enemies and traitors working together. You got me I know when I'm beat. It's a shame though you there with the blonde hair."

"The names Naruto and what's the shame?"

"You're a soldier of the Fire Nation and a strong one it's a shame you're now branded as a traitor."

The Group looked at Naruto with shock 'So he is fire nation thought Sokka'.

"Based on what I've learned you serve a different Fire Nation Than the one I remember." Said Naruto

Iroh looked on with shock 'So this is the ancient warrior'.

"You swore an oath to defend the Fire Nation!" Barked Azula.

"No I swore an oath to protect the Village Hidden in the Leaves and here allies." Naruto said coldly.

"Very well." Said Azula as she unleashed her blue flames upon them.

Luckily the group used there bending to deflect her attack however Azula managed to slip away.

"Alright just who are you?" Asked Sokka

"I believe I can explain" said Iroh.

After Iroh explained the tale of Madara and Naruto and their battle the group fell silent and looked at Naruto with wide eyes.

"So the guy we saw at the North Pole was Madara." Said Aang.

"Yes," said Naruto after hearing their story of what happened.

"I was instructed to give you this." Said Iroh handing Naruto the scroll.

"Thanks."

Naruto opend the old scroll and found a note from Kakashi.

'Naruto If you are reading this then you have been transported into the future no doubt due to Madara. In this scroll you will find several storage seals with gear for you as well as a special seal which will allow us to open a portal to you.'

Unknown location

The ground rumbled from an unknown force. The sky darkened for an unknown reason. A man could be seen standing alone in a field with his hands clasped together. Suddenly a wooden coffin burst from the ground. The lid slid off falling to the ground and the figure with his hands still clasped together simply smiled.

Fire Nation Royal Palace

Fire Lord Ozi was sleeping in his royal chambers peacefully. A dark figure moved in the shadows slowly approaching the sleeping man.

"Fire lord Ozi." The figure said.

"What is it?" said the man half awake.

" The pieces are almost in place. You must advance the schedule to invade Ba Sing Se at once."

AN: kinda rushed the ending but meh.
