He didn't intend to leave for long, just a week or so. Maybe they would miss him, maybe not. However, the road was alluring and the longer Naruto walked it, the farther the winds carried him from home. Perhaps he would return someday, but for now—he would walk that winding road toward the dawn.

They would have clashed (should have) and yet here they were (the world is falling apart), with the stars raining from a crimson sky. The stars didn't break the world, they broke humanity itself. Vengeance. Revenge. Desperation. All that was driving Naruto was to fulfill Sasuke's dying wish. He was alone, as the silent guardian of a crumbling world.

A ripple passes through Hogwarts, worlds becoming hopelessly entwined with the arrival of the legends of the Elemental Nations. At the center of it all Uzumaki Naruto, the Sage of Six Paths, beacon of strength and peace- and the instigator of ungodly mayhem. Magic is a reality, nothing is an impossibility- and thus, the world is Naruto's playground.

Five seconds after their new sensei disappeared, Sephiroth turned to them with a deadly serious look. "So Naruto likes ramen and Sasuke, you hate everything. That's not good for a diet. Any meal plans? I don't function well on an empty stomach." Team Seven would never be the same.

What causes a tragedy? Desire? Curiosity, perhaps? Naruto's excessive curiosity ends with his dreams shattered and the path before him severed. However, he's never been one to take things lying down. Just as the snake doesn't need eyes, neither does Naruto Uzumaki. One way or another, he will become a legend.
