I fell in love with Sumire, she is AWESOME and Badass in my opinion. And I've been playing with an idea of what I can do with her in one of my stories until a plot hits my head.

Sumire in time-travel? Why the hell not? *grin*

And this is going to be one of a heck fanon (or is it crack? *confuse*) pairing ever, for me. And that is saying something (literally).

Rated: M (Death, Violence, Languages, Blood, and Angst)

Pairing: MinatoxSumire

Warning: unbetas. English is my second. ASL is my first. *nod* Yes, I'm Deaf. *peace*

Enjoy~? :)


Elemental Countries

Location: Fire Country

Konohagakure no Sato

(or what's left of it…)

A pair of violet eyes from a young Kunoichi who has purple knee-length hair which is tied a long-braided ponytail, her hair frames her face and her bangs just above her eyes, and fair skin. She wears a black sleeveless halter-neck shirt with a dark purple sash around her waist, black biker shorts, black fingerless gloves, kunai holster wrapped around her right thigh, and black knee-length shinobi boots. She is known as Kakei, Sumire. She was shaking, filled with sadness, sorrow, regret, loss, and pain. Tears slipped from her violet eyes as she carefully observed the demolished village of her home.

She is standing on top of the cliff, where Hokage Monument used to be as she watched the black smoke soaring upward to the sky, ashes, and dirt flying along with the warm breezes, and the scent of fumes, blood, and decayed bodies. Sumire covered her mouth, choked in stunned at her beloved home that is now ruined, beyond recognition. Buildings are now crumbled, the trees are now covered black ashes and lifeless, bodies scattered around, and very few survivors who are fighting for their lives against the enemies.

She came too late. She arrived too late from the mission and discovered this when she returns. A light footstep heard behind her as she jerked around and took out her trustworthy kunai in hand. Front of her is a woman who is extremely pale-skinned that resemble of the white moon yet covered in shatter-like scars, white hair that reached her upper-back that tied into a loose bun, the strands at the side of her face reached her chin to frame her head and her bangs were cropped into a hime-style, darkness-black eyes, and wears the black miko-like outfit.

"Who are you?" Sumire demanded, calmly yet her heart is pounding fast nervously.

The woman stared blankly at the Kunoichi. "All hail Otsutsuki." She said, hollowly. Sumire shivered in anxiety when she heard how empty this woman speak.

Sumire jerked back, barely dodged the woman's dagger that nearly got her throat. The purple-haired Kunoichi jumped back a few times and bend down. She glared at her enemy and immediately attacked. "Suiton: Mizudeppo!" a water gunshot to the woman.

The woman side-steps and charged to Sumire and swing her dagger. The purple-haired Kunoichi ducked and swing her leg at her enemy's legs. The enemy fell back but flipped instead and landed on her feet. "Who are you?! Did you do this!? To my village?! My HOME?!" Sumire spat with anger as furious tears appeared while she jabs her kunai at the crumbled village.

The enemy just stared at the Kunoichi emotionlessly. Which makes her rather anger to the point she attacked her enemy with weapons for a while. Metal clashed against metal while dancing around between the enemy and Kunoichi.

After a while, Sumire flipped backward and landed on her feet. She is mimicking a gun with her fingers. "Suiton: Suireiha!" a larger ball of water shot to the enemy. However, the woman jumped away and released a bunch of daggers toward the Kunoichi.

Sumire quickly dances her way from the sharp weapons but ended up have few cuts on her arms and legs. She clicked her tongue sharply and did another ninjutsu. "Suiton: Mizudeppo!" she shot a water gun and dart to her enemy with her kunai. Sumire managed to cut her enemy but not even close to damage, much to her frustrated.

And they continue fighting as the yellow ball of fire changed to hues of orange, and then almost tangerine. It merged with the sky, like juice-mix dissolving in a glass of water. The clouds were cotton-candy, as though they blush at the warm touch of the sun. Silhouettes of birds flew across a sky that was now magenta, and the sun was half into the land.

An enemy stood, a very few cuts and little of water spots on hers. Another side, Kunoichi is half-way bend while panting with exhaustion, covered more cuts on her legs and arms as the thin cut across her cheek with blood drip down to her jawline, and dropped onto the ground. With no choice, she slammed her left palm against the ground. "Kuchiyose: Nue!"

Smokes appeared as a large creature of a horse-sized height as it has monkey's head with large fangs, white mane, tanuki body, tiger legs, white snake for a tail, and glowing yellow eyes. Nue yowled loudly as he stomped his paws against the ground. He growled dangerously to the enemy. "Let's go, Nue!" Sumire jumped over to her yokai, as her hand grabbed the mane while her other hand tightens around her kunai. Nue released a howled and dart straight to the enemy as his tail slammed the woman. The enemy barely dodged and start attacking back.

The remaining lights touch upon the destruction of a village that is littered with weapons, corpses, crumbles of buildings, burnt marks, cut marks, and heavy cracks of the ground. There was a shinobi's body half-lying against the wall with a hole where his heart used to be. An elder man has covered the tombstone of his dead wife. An ANBU broken mask laying among the dead bodies. A child laying on the ground, with few kunais impaled on back.

A feminine hand stuck out from the crumbled rocks. A scratched up Konoha hitai-ate laying innocently on the ground. A man laying on his back with his hand lay above as his glass eyes stare at the sky. A woman laying on her stomach with her hand reaches to the man's hand, barely touch his fingertips as her eyes are closed. A child-sized ninja sandal left by the cut-down tree. Fires are licking the background, slowly dissolving the objects such as photos of the family.

Back to Sumire who is laying on her side, tears falling while pressed against her wound in her stomach. "Nue…" she whispered, sadly and worried about her yokai. Nue is whimpering as he fell against the ground and disappeared into smokes. Her violet eyes shifted to the enemy, the woman was too strong for her, as she is walking toward the Kunoichi.

Sumire whimpered softly. 'Is this it? Is this when I die?' she mused, resigned, fear, and acceptance. At least she fought until the end. When the enemy got closer with a dagger in hand, Sumire refuses to close her eyes, instead, she stares at the enemy's blank eyes with bravery. Blood trailed down from her lips while glared hatefully at her enemy. There's no way, that she will lose her Will of Fire.

After all, she is a proud Kunoichi of Konoha.

Before the woman stabs the Kunoichi with her dagger, suddenly she flew as the wind appeared. Sumire yelp in surprise as she shut her eyes out of reflex. "Class Rep." A familiar deep voice called out her name, calmly.

Sumire snapped her eyes open and gasped in shock when she saw him. "B-Boruto?" front of her, is a blonde-haired male with a blue eye, whiskers marks on his cheeks, and wears a cloak covered his body.

Boruto nodded his head gravely as he narrowed his eye at Sumire. "You're dying." He stated, watching the blood pouring out of her stomach.

"H-hai…" she swallowed dryly while examined his appearance in disbelieved awed. "…I-I never thought I would see you again…" she whispered softly.

The blonde-haired shinobi grunted. "…I never thought I would be here at this kind of situation." He mumbled then frowned deeply. "To think this is our present…" his eye scanned at his once village of a home.

"Wha-what…" Sumire took a breath. "…what happened?"

Boruto turned his attention to her. "Otsutsuki and Kawaki." He simply answered.

Sumire released a shuddering breath. "Why? Wh-why did they destroyed our home? Killed everyone?" she couldn't cry anymore as she has no tears left but mourning.

The blonde-haired shinobi bend down and carefully observed the purple-haired Kunoichi. "It's because of Zetsu. He was supposedly a son of Kaguya the Goddess of Moon. He left something behind in our world, and—" he tipped his head at the destroyed village with a blank face. "—that is the results. The problem was, I don't know what he left it behind but… I do know it was around for many decades." Sumire was breathing hard while trying to listen. "I was too late. However, not too late enough to send you back."

"S-send me ba-back?" Sumire could feel herself getting really tired.

Boruto nods his head. "Hai… back in the past to stop this madness."

Her violet eyes widen in shock at the calm blue eye. The shinobi tilted his head when he heard the explosion close by. "It seems that bitch is coming back to attack." He mumbled, then glanced down at dying Sumire.

"There's no time." He immediately spread her blood with kanji and symbols then use jutsu seals. "Once you are back in your time, your body will change due to the effect from the time slip jutsu. It's possible you will get de-age. I strongly advise you must not tell anyone the truth of when you are from. It will cause great chaos, especially that you will have knowledge of the future." Then both of his eyes open as they are eerily glowing.

"You won't return to the present. And once you are in the past, the future that you know will be different." Boruto's stern face slowly soften. "…I'm sorry, Class Rep."

Sumire just stared at Boruto then smiles warmly despite that she is covered in cuts and blood. "I forgave you a long time ago, Boruto." She whispered, softly.

Boruto stared at her then tipped his head. He slammed his hand against her heart and a bright light suddenly appeared.

Then sunset vanished along with the bright light, the night appeared with thousands of beautiful stars. Boruto stood on his feet calmly as he stares blankly at the blood puddle. Then he tilted his head at the enemy who arrived with a dagger. "Hmm… I guess you would do for the warm-up." He mumbled with a wicked smirked. 'Good luck, Class Rep.' he mused, dart toward the enemy with his kunai.

"Old Past"

Location: Konohagakure no Sato

Hokage Tower, Hokage's Office

Year of 047

An older man who has dark brown spiked hair, a small goatee, light skin, and small wrinkles. He wears a red full-length kimono that is tied with a white sash, customary hat with kanji that said, 'FIRE' and white haroi. His name is Sarutobi, Hiruzen as known as the Sandaime Hokage is currently sitting on his leather chair while reading his paperwork. He picked up a stamp and approval on the document, then signed with his signature and his Hokage sealed stamp. Then, he placed on the approval pile and went to the next paperwork and read.

It's been a boring, exhausting job as Hokage for the Konoha village. Hiruzen sighed softly as he desperately needs a break and urges to have a taste of his tobacco. However, his wife will know and definitely will scold him. A soft smile appeared on his face when he thought about his beautiful feisty wife and wonder how she is doing right now.

Suddenly, he felt a foreign flash of chakra came out of nowhere as the bright light shines appeared. The Third Hokage jumped onto his feet along with his ANBU came out of their shadows. A deep frowned appeared on his face, filled with suspicion and cautioned. "Go investigate that chakra." He ordered his ANBU who obeyed as they vanished.

He immediately left the office with two ANBU followed behind. Soon, he leaped from the ground to the roof, and his eyes stared at the Hokage Monument where he felt the chakra and noted the light is now dimmed in the distance.

The Third Hokage quickly used his speed toward the light while ANBU followed him quietly until he finally arrived in the area. There are a few ANBU and some Jounin who have their weapons out with cautions as they are gathered around the unusual light with distrust. Hiruzen narrowed his eyes, carefully studied the light as he took a few steps closer.

The light became faint and weak that there's a shape of a small figure, laying on the ground, in a fetal position. When the light finally faded, there is a tiny little girl who has a messy braided ponytail, covered with terrible wounds, clothes that are too big on her, and a purple hitai-ate laying on her side. Hiruzen noticed the blood is pouring out from her stomach in alarmingly fast. "Heal her and take her to the hospital." The Hokage ordered.

ANBU immediately went to her side, green chakras glowed from its hands and heal the injured girl. After that, ANBU picked up the girl in its arms and leaped off toward the direction where the hospital. The Third Hokage furrowed his eyebrows as he glanced around in his surroundings with caution. "Search the area, find anything suspicious and inform me as soon as possible."

"Hai, Hokage-sama!" they mostly investigate the area.

Hiruzen walked toward the puddle of blood, bend down and picked up a hitai-ate with a contemplative face. 'Who is that girl? What happened to her? Where does she come from?' all the questions burning inside his mind that he needs answers. And the only way he can get all the answers is from a mystery girl.

Konoha Hospital

Her eyes fluttered open, revealed her violet eyes as she greeted the white ceiling. She blinked owlishly with confused and dazed. Slowly, she glanced around in her surroundings of the white walls, window that covered with white curtains, white floor, white sliding doors, and laying on the slightly uncomfortable white bed. She recognized this type of room. 'I'm…in the hospital.' She mused, figured it out.

Sumire recalled that she went on a solo mission that took her a week to complete. Traveled back to her village… she gasped when all the flashes return in her mind. The Kunoichi quickly pushed herself from the bed but groaned in pain when she felt the hot sharp fire in her stomach. Sumire fell back on the bed as her hand touch gently on her stomach.

She gritted her teeth, toughen herself as she carefully sat up with her free hand aided her, pushed up shaking. When she is finally sat up, her violet eyes observed her surroundings and realized that equipment and furniture are rather old-fashioned. For some reason, it looked familiar yet unfamiliar to her, she turned her head to the window that is blocked by the curtains.

Sumire pushed the blanket away from her body as her violet eyes are on the windows. However, before she could get off from the bed, she hastily seizes the IV needle, yanks it out without flinching from the pain, ignored the blood dripping from her inner forearm.

The purple-haired Kunoichi stumbled as she quickly slid from the bed. Almost hobbled toward the window, grabbed the curtains with a fist and pushed it away from the view. Her eyes widen in stunned as she froze in confusion disbelieved.

Front of her, she can see the Konoha village that is standing tall and proud. People are walking down the roads with the content on their faces. Children are playing around while laughing. Women are gossiping. Men are joking. Shinobi jumped from the roofs. 'H-how?' she could've sworn that her beloved home was beyond destroyed. So how did this village… rebuild?

Her violet eyes spotted at the Hokage Monument and her heart beats fast with anxious and nervous. 'W-wait…' why are there only three faces? Where's the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh? Her body is shaking, she could feel started to get fear and edgy. 'W-what…' she halted when she saw her hand placed on the glass of a window. Her hand looked so unusually small.

Slowly, her violet eyes trailed down to her arm, to her torso and her entire figure. She felt so tiny as strands of her purple hair fell forward like a waterfall with nearly panic. 'what is happening to me?! Wh-why am I so small? L-like a little child?!' then her head snapped around to the door when she felt the chakra, a powerful unfamiliar chakra outside of the door.

A door slide opened to revealed appearance that shocked her. 'N-no way…' never would she thought that she would see this famous person in flesh and bones. But it was impossible, but he was dead and has been for years.

Front of her is a Sandaime Hokage who looked young and powerful as he walked inside the room. "I see that you are awake, young child." He said, with a polite smile.

Sumire gapped at him. 'How is this possible?!' then a voice came in her mind.

["You won't return to the present. And once you are in the past, the future that you know will be different."]

She finally remembered that somehow Boruto sends her back in the past with impossible jutsu. 'S-so does that mean… I'm in the past?!' she felt horror realization. This is a bad idea! What was Boruto thinking?! As much as she genuinely cares and even loved him once upon a time long ago, she cursed him in her mind, rather viciously. 'That stupid idiotic boy! What the hell was he thinking?! Sending me in the past will change the future! It will change everything! That baka moron!' she continued inwardly cursed Uzumaki, Boruto in her head.

"Are you alright, child?" Hiruzen frowned, concerned as he carefully observed her.

Sumire snapped out of it, stared at the Third Hokage with a bitter smile. "H-hai…" no, she is not alright, but decided to push that aside and dealt with later in time. She grabbed a few of her hair, playing with it nervously while studied the famous Hokage front of her with admired and awe.

The Third Hokage hummed softly, he noticed the blood as he noted the purple-haired girl yank the IV off and stood by the window. He wondered if the girl is trying to escape? Somehow, Sumire knew what he is thinking as she is aware of where his eyes scanned around a certain area.

"I-I'm not trying to escape, Ho-Hokage-sama." She assured the Third Hokage, nervously and shyly. Sumire carefully returns to the bed, climbed on to it and stare up at the Sandaime Hokage. "…I-I thought…" should she? She recalled that Boruto did advise her not to tell anyone about her future. But it wouldn't hurt to tell this man the truth, though? At least, she won't be alone because she truly has no idea what to do with this situation. It's not like she was planning to time travel and stuck in it!

Sumire does not even want to time travel at all, in fact, she rather leaves it alone and moves forward. But, nope. Instead, that idiotic moron decided to send her back to, what? Save a future? A world? Does he not have the ability to stop and even think about the dangerous butterfly effect? Once again, she cursed Boruto.

"You thought what, child?" The Third Hokage stood by the bed with his hands clasped behind him.

The purple-haired Kunoichi bit her inner cheeks then decided to tell him the truth. "I'm from the future." She blurted it out, nervously.

Hiruzen blinked and stared at the young girl who is obviously anxious but genuinely honest in her violet eyes. "Let's say you are from the future, how far are you?" he asked, curious.

"U-umm… what year is it now?"

The Hokage raises his eyebrow. "Year of zero-forty-seven." He answered and noted the purple-haired girl paled at it.

'That far?!' Once again, she cursed Boruto. Is he an idiot?! He sends her back in fifty-eight years! "…I came from the year of a hundred and five." She was twenty at that time but judging from her body size, she assumed seven years old.

Hiruzen blinked. He did not expect that answer as he quietly examined the purple-haired Kunoichi. "What is your name?"

"Kakei, Sumire." Sumire answered, politely.

The Third Hokage nods his head. "Kakei-san… tell me, why you of all people, are sent back here?" he is keeping his mind open.

Sumire's violet eyes were surprised. "Y-you believe me?"

"Let's just say, I'm keeping an open mind and have seen many things in my life. Time travel… sounds a bit extraordinary but not impossible."

The purple-haired Kunoichi nodded her head with understanding. "Okay… Umm… the future… my present…" her shoulders lowered sadly as sorrow display in her eyes. "…Konoha was gone. Completely demolished." She whispered, sadly.

Hiruzen hitched by this disturbing news then he closed his eyes. "…a war?"

Sumire bit her lip. '…I think… I don't know what exactly is going on while I was away for a mission. But… it seems like…' her violet eyes shifted down at her lap. "….Fifth Shinobi War." She answered, hesitated.

The Hokage nearly fainted at this. Fifth? Does that mean there will be Second, Third, and Fourth wars? Suddenly, he felt like he has aged in ten years and became tired. "I see… that's… unfortunate." He opened his eyes and noticed Sumire's pain, loss, and tiredness in her eyes that she has seen the horror of war. "…you are too young to see such war, Kakei-san… I'm sorry."

"I guess peace doesn't stay forever." Sumire said, with a weak smile.

The Hokage sighed heavily. "And whoever send you here, was because you are the survivor?" Sumire nodded her head, silent. "…I see…" then he cleared his throat and stare at the Kunoichi. "Name, rank, number, and report." He whispered, yet strongly authority heard.

Sumire straightens her spine out of habit and stared straight at the Hokage. Past or not, he is still her Hokage. "Kakei, Sumire. Rank, Jounin. My number is zero-six-one-two-one-five. And the r-report was I return from my B-Rank intel mission and arrived at the Konoha where it was already destroyed. There was an enemy, I believe it was a follower for Otsutsuki clan. We have fought, however…" she frowned with disappointment and guilt. "I was defeated and my… comrade saved me before I meet my demise. My comrade was a powerful Shinobi, he told me that I can save the future by sending me in the past. And here I am." She finished, uncomfortably.

Hiruzen narrowed his eyes at this report thoughtfully. "Why didn't he come here instead of you?" he asked, purely curious.

"I d-don't know, Sandaime-sama. I was dying and… he told me things that don't make sense and was hurried to send me here. He didn't get a chance to explain in proper detail. He just decided to use jutsu on me and stay in my present. So far, all I know there was Zetsu, Otsutsuki, and that… I was advised not to tell anyone of my truth."

The Hokage nodded his head as he carefully processes the information from the Kunoichi. "I agreed with your comrade. It's best not to inform anyone of your truth. Especially that you are from fifty-eight years in the future, that is dangerous and powerful knowledge and could become a target by anyone. They would get their hands on you, even willingly create a bloodbath war just to get you." He stared at his future Kunoichi of Konoha with a new light. "This is only between us, triple S-Rank secret." He decided, gravely.

Sumire's eyes widen in surprise. Triple S-Rank secret is a very dangerous and highly classified that only barely Kage-level knows. Not even a Jinchuriki is at that level, it's only an S-Rank secret. 'But it does make sense why my knowledge would be triple S-Rank level. After all, I do hold the possess of information that is worth nearly sixty years.' She mused, understanding.

"We will discuss this more later in my office." Hiruzen informed, professionally. Sumire nodded her head and the Hokage continued. "Before I leave you to rest, I need to know. I got a report from the medic that you have a sealed on your back."

The purple-haired Kunoichi gasped softly. Her violet eyes dart at her left palm and noticed there's no seal. She closed her eyes, carefully use her chakra that she noted it was rather small which she finds odd. Her chakra usually was large enough for Jounin-level but, it shrinks to barely civilian-level. And she felt it. Dark ominous yet familiar chakra on her back, where her father used the sealed on when she was seven in her time. 'That means… everything I did in my time is now gone?' she opened her eyes with contemplative. Her violet eyes glanced at the Hokage who is waiting for her answer. "…umm…" how was she going to explain that her father was a maniacal follower of Danzo, trained her in order to avenge for Root Operation? And that he used fuinjutsu, a forbidden seal of Gozu Tenno on her back so she could unleash a yokai that was intended to destroy Konoha? It's a good thing that she can control it on her free will, however, she can't unleash Nue because Nue will fight with vicious rage since the chakra is negative. It would take a while for Nue to calms down. Not to mention… he's the same size as a tailed-beast creature.

Hiruzen narrowed his eyes. "Kakei-san?" he asked, cautious suspicious.

"…it's Gozu Tenno." Sumire whispered, worried and resigned. But she was surprised when the Hokage just looked at her with confusion. "It's a dangerous seal to unleash because… umm… it's a yokai sealing, Sandaime-sama." She answered, briefly.

The Third Hokage looked like he aged another decade once again. "…a yokai…" Sumire nodded her head. "…we will discuss this later in my office." He decided as he doesn't want to know anymore right now. "For now, you may rest."

"Understood, sir." The purple-haired Kunoichi tipped her head, respectfully.

Before Hiruzen reached the doorknob, he halted and glanced at Sumire with a small warm smile. "Welcome back, Kakei-san."

Sumire was taken aback but then her violet eyes teary as a smile appeared on her face. "Thank you, Sandaime-sama."

When the Third Hokage left her alone in her room. Sumire turned her head at the window where she can see the Konoha village and Hokage Monument. 'Boruto… I wish I can strangle you right now but…' her heart squeeze with worried. Is this truly a good idea for her to be here? How can she save the future? She is only a Kunoichi and she doesn't know much about this timeline. She only knew things from the books she had read, information she heard from her friends and families, and stories from teachers. 'Everyone…' she never gets to chance to search for anyone who is alive. Were her friends alive? What happened to Rokudaime-sama and Nanadaime-sama?

Her mind was filled with unanswered questions, but she knew one thing.

Sumire mourning for her time. Her present. Her friends. Her family. Her beloved Konoha.

All gone and she will never get it back.
