Uzumaki Naruto-centric stories that shows his intelligent, serious side. Adult Naruto fics are welcome. Both slash and het are accepted. Note to staff members: A high standard of grammar, spelling, plot, and characterization must be maintained. Unreasonable character bashing is severely discouraged. Humour fics are also discouraged as the humour may conflict with Naruto being all serious and angsty. But on the rare occasion where a fic manages to balance humour and maturity, go for it. |
Project Konoha by crimson sun06 reviews
They were trained to be soldiers & assassins. Their work is never done be it war or peace. They are the shadows of hell who ensure the peace of our heaven. But sometimes the lights of heaven cast darker shadows than the fires of hell.

The Joys and Tribulations of Humanity by Fyoex reviews
AU. Part 1/2. From demon to human. A new beginning, a new life. Yet it seemed as though a curse had been placed upon Naruto; promising pain and loss. The worst part? He was predicting it through dreams. Daddy!Yondaime, minor Naru/Hina, T for dark themes, violence and angst.

Introverted by Shadenight123 reviews
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.

Simplicity by YukiwaFuru reviews
Sometimes the simplest approach is the best. But in life, the simplest answer isn't often the easiest. Uzumaki Naruto knows this better than anyone. Genfic, rated M for language.

Unwavering Sky by Kur0Kishi reviews
He had long since given up. Or to be more precise, he just found it hard to care. He only had his job, his burden and his duty to keep him going. Smiling was a task, a necessity. Not a luxury. This is a story of a man, learning how to see in colours again.

Suffice to say, he's in for quite a shock when said little boy hands him his ass. And that, as they say, is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Walking Backwards on a Tightrope by Lithos Maitreya reviews
...is actually a fairly common trick in the circus. It's also the closest equivalent to going backwards in time. So why should only one person go back in time if anyone who knows how can do it? It's just like walking backwards on a tightrope. And more than one person in a war-torn world of Ninja wants to change things. To fix things. Time travel fic.
