"They say the only thing to fear is fear itself. That, and a motivated Nara." Shikamaru is born with his father's intelligence and his mother's work ethic. The world is turned sideways.

Luffy and Zoro awaken in two different parts of East Blue, both with the same thing on their mind. Protect the crew. There would be no failures this time around, Captain's orders. As bits and pieces of the unknown past that the two comrades share are gradually revealed, the rest of the crew can only speculate. For all their absolute resolve, they're hiding something. Time Travel AU

The destruction of the time turners in the Department of Mysteries throws Harry, Ron and Hermione a thousand years into the past. There they meet the Founders of Hogwarts, who are not at all pleased about what has happened to their school. They decide that something must be done.

Life was going well, if you asked Naruto. So why did he listen to Kakashi of all people? Now, they've time-traveled to the past, smack dab in Minato's era when the soon-to-be Hokage was sporting a team seven of his own. Let history run its course? Never! Kakashi-centric

Thirty year old Kakashi was supposed to have been killed by Pein during the Invasion. Instead, he wakes up in the body of his twenty year old self. (It gets a lot more complicated.) Time travel.

Kakashi falls off a tree and lands in a different world. Literally. Now he's in a dimension where nothing makes sense—but he's used to that. Kakashi plans to wreak as much havoc as he can and find his way home . . . if he can.

Kakashi learns about other ways to fall from a tree. Unfortunately for him, an infinite amount of universes means an infinite amount of trouble. [Offshoots, extras, and deleted scenes from the Branches AU.]

Kimimaro x Sakura. Because some things you feel in your bones.

The Fourth Great Ninja War was...not good, but not world-shattering. The Elemental Countries got their shit together, got their dead buried, and moved on. In the chaos, it's at least a little understandable that Kakashi loses track of a cunning old man that didn't want to be found. Until Madara burns the Elemental Countries from the inside out, that is. [Time-travel]

What if Luffy had died instead of Ace during the Marinefords Great War?

A collection of oneshots exploring different friendships, ideas, sad themes, comical scenarios, and lots and lots of pairings...but mainly Nalu. Chapter 549: Natsu doesn't let the phrase when pigs fly stop him from getting what he wants….

After a disaster worse than Sabaody, the crew are 'saved' by Vegapunk's experimental time machine. All of the crew is blown back into their past bodies with all of their memories. As Luffy slowly gathers them together again, the world will never be the same. Who wants the same old boring adventure? Screw the plot, and let the chips fall where they may.

Indefinite babysitting duty was so not on Kakashi's list of things he wanted to do with his life.

Sasuke had a very good reason for running away from Konoha.

In the aftermath of Orochimaru's Invasion and Itachi's second Tsukuyomi, Sasuke is left with two revelations. The first is that his friends were put in danger because of him. The second is that he will do anything to protect them.

In unity lies strength; each leaf is important or the beauty of the tree is lost. Some bonds, however, are difficult to forge and even harder to keep. The tide of blood nears, drums thunder, and three Genin stand tall as the world spirals into madness. [AU]

Our heroes did not come from a future where everything has gone horribly wrong. They did not travel back in time to save the world from a bleak or miserable fate. As a matter of fact, all they want to do is find a way back home as soon as possible. [cracky, epilogue-compliant time travel fic] [Now has a TV Tropes page!]

A series of ficlets which explores what life might have been had Sandaime come to an obvious solution for the Uchiha problem.

What if Naruto had been selected for a different team? What if he'd had a different mentor? Who would guess the consequences would be so large?

Petunia married a biochemist, and Harry grew up reading science and science fiction. Then came the Hogwarts letter, and a world of intriguing new possibilities to exploit. And new friends, like Hermione Granger, and Professor McGonagall, and Professor Quirrell... COMPLETE.

All he can do is kill. Again and again and forever. (Kakashi does not return from the war unscathed.) Oneshot.

The Strawhats and more have discovered fanfiction. After looking and reading them for a couple of days, they have decided to write comments about them to the authors. These are those letters. (Warning: Pokes fun at pairings and common types of fanfics. Also, language. )

During the summer before sixth year, Harry finds an injured bat in the garden and decides to try to heal it...and an unwilling Snape learns just what kind of a person Harry Potter really is. No slash.

There is something going on with Kakashi, but Minato can't figure out what. All he has are distressing deductions, each one progressively worse than the last. It's no wonder Minato can't help but fear and fear and fear. (To be fair though, it really wasn't his fault he never considered the possibility of time-travel)

The story begins like this; He is seven and starving at sea, and he can't even cry because there is no water left in his body with which to create tears. His stomach feels like it has become concave, and as he curls himself up in a ball to stop the hunger pangs, he can count his ribs beneath his fingertips.

in·a·ni·tion, noun; lack of mental or spiritual vigor and enthusiasm; exhaustion caused by lack of nourishment. (In which Luffy's metabolism is faster than his doctor understands.)

A girl who took high school philosophy with Light Yagami recounts the story of the rise of the god of judgment and the trail of corpses left in his wake. Contains discussion of religion and possible blasphemy that may offend some readers. Also on A03.

Being ignored and gazed at with hatred can lead someone to become a boisterous and loud orange-wearing shinobi, but it can also drive him to become a silent and invisible introvert. Of the two, Naruto takes the logical choice for a future in the Ninja World. Team Sai-Naruto-Sakura. No pairings. Future of bloodshed and grittiness assured.

In the afterlife, a few of the most likely suspects try to figure out which one of them was the most responsible for the myriad of problems facing the ninja world.

Zoro had never thought there would be anything that he could not defeat. Especially not his own body... nakamaship, no pairings.

Danzo's plan for the assassination of the Hokage was almost flawless. To bad he didn't take six neglected children who ran away the night of the murder into account.

"Captain, you have to eat." (In which Luffy's really sick, and Sanji's about to lose his mind. Nakamaship.)

In the interests of anonymity, I will only say that I work in the mental health-care department of Konoha. Things being as they are in a shinobi village, we get more than our fair share of strange patients; one of them specifically has been on my mind lately. Oneshot.

"Her face. I remember her face." A boy trained to kill is brought into the light. Grey, different Naruto heavily stealth based and Root trained, but not in the traditional sense. How will he cope with that most dangerous of foes: emotion?

7 years after their adventures ended, Zoro collapses in a pool of blood outside Sanji's restaurant "Pour L'amour." Pirate King Luffy has been captured! Zoro begs Sanji to protect two women: Luffy's pregnant girlfriend and a lady with a green-haired kid.

A rainy night, an unexpected threat, a desperate crew. And Zoro has never been so lost.

On this island, it's personal. The inhabitants don't just steal your body; they feed on your dreams. Features all Straw Hats. Nakamaship; no pairings. Complete.

A collection of random, unrelated drabbles. T blanket rating. I'm dumping in some stuff that's scattered around Livejournal in here, so pardon the spam.

One day couldn't make much of a difference, anyway. Features all the Straw-Hats...sort of. AU speculative one-shot. Complete.

Sanji knew how difficult it was to survive the hell that was starvation. What he hadn't expected was that he'd need to get his nakama through it, too. Features Zoro and Sanji; Nakamaship, no pairings. Complete.

Itachi's just died...and woken up thirteen again. The only problem is his thirteen year-old self doesn't like the idea of sharing his mind and body with his clan's killer. How hard would you fight to save your family from yourself? ::AU::COMPLETE::

Uchiha Itachi hadn't planned for this possibility, but then, if he'd had his way, he would be dead. How this had happened was a useless question. What mattered was, what would he do now? To be or not to be... It all hinged on his choices. Time travel.

When Usopp gets himself into trouble, his nakama unhesitatingly rescue him. But 'rescue' turns out to be a cut-throat fight-to-the-death combat challenge, and there could very well be fatal consequences. Features all Strawhats. No pairings. Complete.

How the Strawhats celebrate Sanji's birthday. Contains Very Cunning Schemes, and Luffy. Set straight after Thriller Bark.

Sanji's worst nightmare comes true, but this time the Straw Hats won't let their nakama bear it alone. Sanji/Everyone nakamaship. Sanji's POV. Set post-Impel Down, in the New World. Complete!

After receiving a time travel jutsu as payment for a mission, the original four members of Team 7 each get a chance to go back to one event in their life and change it. Surely they will use such an awesome power responsibly...right? Don't count on it.

So maybe everything didn't work out perfectly for Harry. Still, most of his friends survived, he'd gotten married, and was about to become a father. If only he'd have stayed away from the Veil, he wouldn't have had to go back and do everything AGAIN.

Ryuk’s favourite equation. It means the death of boredom, the only death that actually matters. Gift fic for Computerfreak101

When Bulma comes down with the flu, Vegeta takes over Capsule Corp. for the day, much to the horror of executives of a rival company who had hoped to intimidate the heiress into a deal. -One shot-

Correct file now! Zoro gives directions.

The Ninetails cannot be contained. But it will take a human sacrifice, all the same.

COMPLETE. Young Naruto is prohibited from being Ninja of the Leaf. Left to his own devices he takes an unusual path to power as a Puppeteer. Smart!Powerful!Wily!Naruto. Lots of conflict with Orochimaru, Sasori and other Akatsuki.

She said she'll marry him. After 24 hours.

Sanji makes Zoro a promise.

Zoro and Sanji get captured. A lot.

It isn't who you are that determines how you deal with a tragedy. It's what you lose.

Like all good boys, Itachi writes home occasionally.
