Uchiha Satsuki, avenger, doesn't love anything, or anyone. Not revenge, not tomatoes, and definitely – definitely! – not Uzumaki Naruto. But when she winds up on a genin team with him, she realises there's more to his smile than teeth and sunshine. Female!Sasuke

We have stories of heroes. We have followed their lives, know what makes them tick, and what pushes them on. But the world has always been bigger than them just what happens to them. What happened long ago before they were ever born. What happened between their fights and adventures. What happened if the smallest choices changed. This is what happened before our heroes.

Reforged in the ashes of their homeland, the Dreamer and the Builder cast away the vestiges of their old convictions. There is only one route to revolution: "Oderint, dum metuant." Part Three of Ouroboros/Resonance.

He was thrown into something new. He gave up, he didn't want to be a part of anything like this anymore. But maybe these people could become something new for him to care for. Something new to fight for.

Senju Hashirama's dream to unify all of the warring clans of his country under one village remained just that; a dream. Generations later, the ninja world still consists of pure clan affiliation. Enacting peace through understanding has fallen to the side. A catalyst is needed for any kind of change to occur, and it is all found in a little boy... for better or for worse. AU.

The paths we find ourselves on. Are they predetermined by fate? Or do we really have the power to change our future? Will we stick to the paths we find ourselves on? Or if a chance presented itself, would you take it? This is a new path. A new chance at life. A...did that kid just spew chunks all over the deck? Yes. Yes he did.

"School that teaches kids how to fight and kill? Check. People with crazy powers? Check. Shady group of villains with some unknown goal? That's a check. Maybe this place isn't so different after all, eh Kurama?" Our favorite blonde Uzumaki comes to Remnant as a storm brews just beyond the horizon.

It was their last, desperate gambit. Their last hope. They pinned everything on a prayer that he could save them...and now...he's not even sure if he can make it count anymore.

Thrown into a new world, Naruto Uzumaki does what he does best: cause as much chaos as possible while climbing to the top. Hokage may be out of his reach, but that doesn't mean he can't set a new goal for his life.

He said he saw great potential in my small body and he raised me.Because of him I lived,I learned...and I finally found someone I could call nakama.Even if he didn't call me the same.I am his son, I am his student...the dragonslayer of Acnologia.

Another one bites the dust, huh? Another corpse to toss in the ground, cold, old, forgotten. Another round in the chamber, stacked up one after the other in menacing order- better than wasting away idle. Flash! Bang! A scream: "USE ME"!

Mizuki never got to shoot his mouth off at Naruto the night he took the Scroll of Seals. Other than skipping a half-manic monologue from him what exactly did this change for everyone's favorite blonde ninja? Who knows? Rated M for language/later events.

Uzumaki Naruto was born to be a shinobi. He was supposed to be a killer; a protector of unparalleled skill. His lineage and the demon in his gut ensured that. In canon, his growth was stunted. In here, he had a reason to be strong. He has to survive. AU.

He stole to provide for his family but crimes have punishments. And his is... to go to monster-killing school. Go figure.

After checking up on a strange rift in space and time, Naruto ended up in a foreign land where new allies and enemies await. However, his wish to bring peace to his home still resonated...so he will do everything he can to return home, no matter what! 3 Crossovers mixed right, with a 4th on the way. A new narrative with believable characters! Strong!Naruto and mostly in-character!

Hyoudou Issei is known for his perverted nature and the possession of the the Boosted Gear. However, in another universe entirely, he has two sacred gears. The Boosted Gear, and of course a reality warping gear known only as the mysterious Exodus Switch. A power that allows him to live his entire life... as a video game. So what do Ninjas have to do with all this? VideoGame!Issei.

ANBU!Naruto. Drafted into ANBU at a young age, Naruto is guided to the path of a Captain. Leader of Team Sigma, the Hokage's Personal Guard, Naruto will lead his team and defend his Village to the best of his ability. Threats besiege the Land of Fire from all sides, and only Naruto stands before them...

Sasuke Uchiha is Rookie of the Year and son of the police chief. Naruko Namikaze is prime Kunoichi and hero of Konoha, daughter of the Yondaime Hokage. Hence, the dead last assigned to their team is Shinku Haruno...son of civilians. There is no rising from the lower levels when you're surrounded by prodigies. Just live through the nightmare...and hope to wake up to a better day.
