(Wow chapter 26, when I started this story I never thought I would carry on to this point, well anyway thanks for the support and as long as I have ideas for the next chappy's Minato's gang will continue to blunder through time! Thankyou to all those who review and remember any chappy suggestions are welcome! Without furthur ado chapter 26!)

Minato yawned "Well guys I think we should head out again, it's to..."

"Dry" offered Sasuke,

"Deserted" pitched in Obito,

"Dangerous now that wee Gaara is psychotic killing machine... no offense." Naruto added as an after thought.

Gaara shrugged "None taken."

Minato continued "Nah I was gonna say more like it's to lacking of sake, but those reasons work to."

Kakashi Sensei raised an eyebrow "How are we gonna go you're to tired... and drunk to preform the jutsu again."

Minato grinned "Yup which is exactly why you're doing it my o so lovely and loyal pupil."

Kakashi Sensei sighed, "If we land at the beginning of time I am not being held responsible."

I-Inu-Hitsuji-Tatsu-Uma-Tori-Tora,

-bites thumb-

"Ninja art time travelling jutsu!"

They appeared in a different part of Konoha but nonetheless it was the village hidden in the leaves, Obito punched the air "Ha! No demon smoke attempting to suffocate us this time!"

POOF

An explosion of red smoke smothered them.

Rin growled fiercely "Oh well done! You just had to tempt fate didn't you!"

Meanwhile somewhere in the village Neji sneezed.

Rock Lee approached him "What is it?"

Neji narrowed his eyes "Someone is talking about fate again!"

Tenten sighed "Neji this the fifth time you claimed that someone's said the word fate just because you sneezed."

Neji glared "I know I'm right though!"

Tenten regarded him sceptically "Uh huh just like you were right when you were bet to see Gai Sensei's jump suit with you're byakugan to prove that he did wear underwear."

Neji's face paled, "We never speak of that again."

Rock Lee smiled "Yosh you seen underneath the underneath!"

Tenten giggled.

Back to our Shinobi Kakashi sneezed "Hm someone's using my philosophy on ninja life again..."

Obito stamped his foot "Rin I didn't mean to tempt fate it just happened!" then he started crying, "Oh now I'm yelling at you Rin I'm so sorry! Waa!" Obito cried little longer then laughed "Heh you know what's funny I tempted fate and lost... I LOST DAMMIT!" Obito started ranting furiously,"Kakashi get me some chocolate."

Kakashi winced at his tone, "Obito we don't have any chocolate..."

Obito grit his teeth killing intent rolling off him "Kakashi. Get. Me. Chocolate. NOW!"

Sakura pulled bar out of her bag and shoved into Obito's mouth before he could say another word his death aura faded into a happy one and he sounded like he was almost purring.

Iruka gazed at him wonder "Wow mood swings much."

Sasuke nodded "Yeah that's what happens when you inherit 'Pre Madara Syndrome', unfortunately the genetics in my family to."

Naruto grinned "Well teme the genetics messed up at some point cuz you've always got a stick shoved up your ass!"

Everyone waited with a baited breath for Sakura to pommel him, oddly enough she just stood still seemingly lost in her own little world, Naruto never a believer in fate asked gently "Sakura are you OK?"

Sakura glared at him and punched him twenty feet away "BAKA! I WAS THINKING!"

Gaara walked over Naruto's crumpled twitching form, "He's alive."-Naruto's body twitched- "I think."

Kakashi examined the surroundings, "Well we're definitely in the leaf village, there's five Hokage monuments, so Tsunade-sama is currently the fifth Hokage, though I can't specify the year."

Zabuza bored at doing nothing but being tied up looked around, "My guess is that's either two or three years passed since when we originally started."

All eyes looked at him, well except Naruto who was still twitching, Gaara kicked him in an attempt to get a response, Sakura looked at him "What makes you say that?"

Zabuza rolled his eyes "Oh nothing except that giant sign across the road from us with the year in great big numbers."

-sweat drops-

Sasuke hummed "So that would make us... 15-16 right now... wow the fates have not been kind."

Naruto sprang up like daisy "Ha! Fate doesn't exist! I already proved that in my fight against Neji! May lightening strike me if I'm wrong!"

-ominous thunder-

CRACK!

Naruto was struck by lightening Gaara was narrowly missed his eyes widened at the now charred blonde.

Sasuke smirked "Wow fate really hates you, doesn't it?"

Naruto coughed "Blah it was a coincidence. Anyway lightening never strikes the same place twice"

CRACK!

Naruto twitched only slight movement.

Sasuke shrugged "I rest my case."

Iruka sniffed "Anyone besides me smell burnt fox and ramen?"

Naruto raised a weak finger "It wasn't fa-!"

Gaara clamped a hand over his mouth "Naruto pal I would much prefer to maintain a friendship with you still alive. I think if it got to the spiritual stage it would be way to weird."

Minato rubbed his temples "I have a hangover induced headache coming on, well I suppose we should have a look around."

Obito nodded still nibbling on his chocolate "Yup as was fated."

Naruto went to say something until Gaara glared at him effectively shutting him up, "Don't even try it."

Again across Konoha Neji was having a sneezing fit, "For Kami's sake who keeps saying fate! Achoo!"

Tenten giggled "Neji you're just over reacting, I think it's just a allergy."

Rock Lee nodded "Exactly I highly doubt my rival that fate would get you so much."

"ACHOO! Damn it Lee don't say that word!"

"What fate?"

"ACHOO ACHOO! LEE!"
