A/N - Okay, I know, you're probably not happy with me for starting yet another new story. However, the idea for this story came to me in a dream. I liked the idea, so I decided I'd go ahead and get at least the first chapter out.

A little side note you should know before reading this story: when Naruto arrives in Kamza, it's a full year and a half before the events of Time & Eternity, meaning no wedding and no time traveling just yet. That comes later. :P

I know this is probably going to be one of my least popular fics, simply because a lot of people don't know anything about the game, Time & Eternity, buuut...I love the game and I really liked the idea of writing this particular crossover. *shrugs*

Anywho, I'm not really sure what else to say. Sooo...enjoy!

Chapter 1 – Meeting Toki & the Gang

A 17 year-old Naruto sighed heavily as Jiraiya had left him once again to go and peep on women in the hot springs or whatever it was he did in these stupid towns they passed through. He just didn't give a damn anymore. Instead, he had taken to rifling through Jiraiya's things, taking book after book on fuinjutsu from Jiraiya's things without the bastard learning about it.

Naruto wasn't an idiot. Not by a longshot. Yes, he played the role of a fool growing up and during his time on Team 7 simply because it was the easiest way to deal with all the shit he had to put up with on a daily basis. Now, however, he had hoped to get an actual fucking teacher for a change, but Jiraiya had proven to be anything but.

Grumbling irritably to himself, he applied the finishing touches to a seal he had been working on for some time. What was this seal he had come up with, you might ask? Well, considering all the abuse and neglect he had suffered, he decided that he had simply had enough of living in this wretched world. Corruption and greed were everywhere, as was perversity, lust, hate, and far more. Naruto realized that hardly anyone actually gave a damn about him, so he figured it was time to go. Time to leave for another realm. If he died in the process? Well, he didn't rightly care. At least then he'd get some fucking peace.

Making sure he had his bag packed and he had taken everything he wanted from Jiraiya's things, he walked off to be truly alone and proceeded to lay down the sealing tag on the ground before him. Performing a single hand seal, he activated the tag and watched as a portal appeared in front of him. Without even looking back, he stepped through the portal that led to an unknown realm in an unknown time and space. As soon as the portal closed behind him, the tag erupted in flames, burning away as if it never existed.

"Well shit." a voice could be heard saying as a plant-like man appeared from the ground. "They're not going to like this…" the black half said before he melded with the ground again and disappeared without a trace.

Weeks later – Konohagakure

"What the hell do you mean you LOST him?! What the hell were you doing Jiraiya?! You had one fucking job and you blew it! What happened to training him properly Jiraiya?!" Tsunade yelled, absolutely FURIOUS with her old teammate right now.

"To be fair Hime, he just doesn't have the same kind of genius that his parents did. And he fought me every step of the way. Whatever I told him to do, he either didn't want to do it or he complained the entire time. Tell him to work on the basics and he'd claim he needed better training than that. Tried to get him to tap into the Kyuubi's chakra, he whined and complained and fought me again and again, every damn time. If he was going to be so uncooperative, then why not focus on my precious research and do more important things? It's not my fault he's such a pathetic shinobi." Jiraiya said, sounding genuinely irritated.

Before Jiraiya knew what was happening, Tsunade her her hand wrapped around his throat and he was lifted off of the floor. As he began to choke and spots began to fill his vision, she growled out, "Did you ever stop to think that maybe you needed to try a different approach? Naruto-kun was hoping to have a competent teacher this time around. Obviously that was too much to ask for. You would rather peep on women in their private moments than try to help your only fucking GODSON! You KNEW the Akatsuki were after him! You KNEW he needed proper training and you blew him off because he wanted some proper goddamn training for a change!"

Tsunade carried Jiraiya over to the nearby wall and started slamming him against it repeatedly until it finally collapsed. Tossing Jiraiya to the floor, she watched as he gasped for breath and began to beg for mercy. Without missing a beat, she kicked him in the stomach and sent him flying into the opposite wall. "You didn't know that Naruto was smarter than he let on, did you? No, you took one look at him and judged him based on that mask of his. Naruto confided the truth in Shizune and me one day. How he had to play the fool just so the fucking village wouldn't claim he was outshining their precious golden boy, that fucking traitorous Uchiha! With him gone, Naruto was free to drop his mask. But you didn't care. By then you had already judged him as a failure and you had no fucking intention of taking training him seriously! Tch, I bet you took the same approach with his father and look where that got him."

Jiraiya snarled at her and growled out, "Don't you dare badmouth Minato in front of me!"

Glaring at Jiraiya, she kicked him hard in the face, knocking more than a few teeth out in the process and breaking his nose. "I'll do whatever the hell I want! You're a failure as a teacher, Jiraiya! You can't even see when your student needs your guidance! You'd rather write your goddamn smut than help your godson! You promised Minato and Kushina that you would watch over him and you neglected to do so because your fucking 'research' was more important to you than Naruto! What? Do you blame him for Minato's death or something? Is that why you refused to help him?!" When he didn't dispute her point her eyes widened and she said, "You fucking asshole! How could you possibly blame Naruto for his parents' deaths?!"

Jiraiya scowled at her and said, "If Kushina had never gotten pregnant with that blasted child, they'd both still be alive. Naruto's a cursed child and there was no way in Hell I was going to get close to that…that thing! So what?!"

Clenching her fists even tighter, Tsunade barely restrained herself from killing him. "Reverse summon him. NOW!"

"I tried that already! Ma and Pa told me that wherever he is, they can't reverse summon the brat. He's GONE Tsunade! I don't know where he's gone to or what the hell he did, but he's gone! His name's still on the contract, so he's not dead. But we can't reach him. The Toads can, but they're pissed!" Jiraiya explained, clearly frustrated with the whole situation.

"Then I suppose you have no more use to me, Jiraiya. Let your punishment fit the crime, I say. I don't care if you run this village's spy network, Jiraiya. You are replaceable. You're nothing special. Just a pathetic wannabe. Strike your name from the Toad contract. Right now. If you won't do it, I'll contact the slugs and have them talk to the toads on my behalf. Then they can punish you how they see fit. However, if I know Naruto like I think I do, he's probably getting in touch with them as we speak. So you have one of two options here. You can either strike your name from the contract willingly, or the toads will remove you from the contract themselves for being negligent in your duties as a godfather. Afterwards, you're going to train your replacement in how to run your precious spy network. Only then will I kill you, Jiraiya. And trust me when I say I am going to kill you. Naruto-kun is dear to me. He's like the son I never got to have. Then again, you had a hand in that, didn't you Jiraiya? Oh yes, I know what you did."

Tsunade gripped Jiraiya by the hair tightly and slammed his head into the floor a few times, listening as he screamed out in pain. "You arranged to have Dan killed, all because you were jealous of him. Hiruzen went along with it for whatever reason he did. Doesn't matter now. Then, when I was grieving, you would come 'console' me and get some damn sex from the deal. Only I saw right through your ploy and beat the shit out of you for it. Just like I'm doing now." she said angrily as she slammed his face into the floor three more times.

"You see Jiraiya, I found Hiruzen's little black book of secrets. And oh, there were so many secrets. But that's not important right now. You see, you can either do as I command, or I slap a special collar around your neck that prevents you from ever setting foot outside of this village again. No more wandering, no more peeping, no more of your perverted vices! And believe me, I've had one made juuuust for you. And if you try to remove it, wellll…let's just say you'll wish you hadn't. So do I as command Jiraiya."

Jiraiya looked up into Tsunade's eyes and saw that she was dead serious this time. Still… "I'd rather take my chances than let go of the Toad contract. They're all that make me special. Even the Rasengan I learned from Minato. I can't just give them up! And you can't expect me to just give up on my research! My books are best sellers! Men love my books and if I can't get any inspiration…"

Tsunade scowled and stood up, pressing her heel against his head and pushing his face against the floor so hard he felt like his head was going to burst. "Fine then. Shizune!" Seeing Shizune rush into the room, the blonde nodded once to her. "Get me the collar. It's in my desk."

"Of course Tsunade-sama!" Shizune exclaimed as she quickly retrieved the item Tsunade had asked for. Handing it over, she watched as Jiraiya began to struggle, trying to throw Tsunade off of him. It was a futile effort though, as she soon got the collar around his neck and activated it. Swiping her blood across a seal on the back of the collar, she grinned maliciously down at him.

"Now, I recommend you get to training your replacement Jiraiya. I'll be informing the slugs of what you've done, so you can be sure that the toads will have something to say about your negligence. Now…" Lifting Jiraiya up by his head, she turned and threw him through her window off into the distance, grinning when he landed in the women's side of the hot springs. Clapping her hands together, she turned to smile sweetly at Shizune. "That's one problem sort of dealt with. Now, how do we explain what's happened to the people that care about Naruto?"

Shizune shook her head and frowned sadly at her master. "I don't know, Tsunade-sama. Do you think the toads know anything about where Naruto-kun has gone?"

"Maybe. If they do, I don't know if they'll tell us. They're rather fond of Naruto, and if he's safe where he's at…"

Before they could continue their conversation, Sakura stepped into the room, looking curiously at all the damage, including the broken window, the destroyed walls and floor, etc. "Tsunade-sama? I heard Jiraiya was seen in the village. Is Naruto with him? What exactly happened?"

Tsunade frowned sadly and shook her head. "I don't know where Naruto is, Sakura. Something happened while they were gone. Jiraiya…neglected his duties and now Naruto is missing."

The pinkette gasped and could feel tears welling up in her eyes. "But…he can't be dead, can he? Please tell me he's safe at least!"

Tsunade smiled at Sakura and said, "Wherever Naruto is, I'm sure he's fine. We know he's not dead, and it's highly unlikely that the Akatsuki have him. I'm hoping to get some information from the toads once Naruto contacts them."

Sakura breathed a sigh of relief and wiped away the tears that had built up in her eyes. "Do you think he'll ever come back home?"

The blonde frowned sadly and shook her head. "I don't know Sakura. I really don't know."

Kamza

As Naruto stepped out of the portal, he looked around at his surroundings. Oddly enough, he found himself in the middle of an alley, though it looked a bit strange to him. Not quite sure how to put his finger on it, he stepped out of the alleyway and had a look around. There were a number of large buildings, some of which reminded him of apartment complexes while others looked like genuine houses. Then of course there was a bakery, a restaurant that seemed to serve a variety of fish, and more such places.

The thing that caught his attention more than anything, however, was the port he now found himself on. Looking out at the sea, he smiled and took in a breath of fresh air. "Ahhh. That smells like freedom to me." he said with a chuckle.

"Sounds to me like someone's had some trouble." a feminine voice stated from behind him. Turning around, he saw a beautiful brunette woman dressed rather fashionably. She wore glasses with a red rim on the bottom. This woman also had beautiful brown eyes, but he sensed something was a bit…different about her.

"You could say that. The name's Naruto Uzumaki. Who might you be, Miss…?" Naruto questioned, hoping to get a name from the beautiful woman.

"Oh! I'm Wedi. Royal wedding planner, fashion designer, and good friend of our fair princess Toki. You…don't look like you're from around here. Is everything okay? You can talk to me about it, you know?" the now-named Wedi suggested, sounding genuinely concerned for him.

Before Naruto could say anything, he saw something interesting floating near Wedi's head. "Is…is that a fairy?" he asked, genuinely stunned by what he was seeing.

Wedi blinked and asked, "You can see her? Nobody ever seems to notice her. Yes, this is my fairy friend! You really aren't from around here, are you Naruto-kun? You're not even from our world, are you?"

Naruto blinked a couple of times before looking at the fairy and nodding his head in understanding. "Your fairy friend is rather smart, being able to surmise that by just a glance. If you don't mind, could we go someplace and talk for a while? I'd like to learn more about this world and where I've ended up. And I'm sure you have plenty of questions for me, as well."

The wedding planner nodded and led Naruto to a quaint little house nearby and knocked on the door. When it opened a moment later, Naruto blushed at the sight before him. There before him was one of the most beautiful girls he had ever seen. She was just slightly shorter than he was, she had beautiful red eyes and long, flowing red hair that was tied up in a ponytail in the back. She was wearing a cute top that was red and white in color, and she had on a white skirt that was awfully short, revealing a lot of leg. Or, as he had heard it called, 'absolute territory'. You see, she had on long, black stockings with red boots on her feet. Just the sight of her brought a blush to his face and he was struggling to fight it down.

"Hello Wedi. Who's your new friend?" the woman asked curiously. Even her voice was beautiful, at least in Naruto's opinion.

Wedi smiled and said, "Hello Toki-chan. This is Naruto Uzumaki-kun. We have a lot to talk about. Can we please come in?"

The now-named Toki nodded and ushered them in with a kind smile on her face. Shutting the door behind them, she motioned for the two of them to take a seat. As he did, Naruto looked around at the interior design. It was a well-furnished house and it appeared to have a second floor as well as a potential attic. There was a nice kitchen, and the living area was quite spacious. Based on what he had seen before entering the house, there was also a small garden. He wasn't quite sure how to describe the small, cushioned thing he sat on though. It wasn't uncomfortable, but there was no back to it and it was a little on the small side. Regardless, he decided to focus his attention on the other occupants of the house.

To his right sat Wedi while Toki sat to his left. Directly across from him were two other young women. The one on Toki's left was a blue-haired girl with her hair done in two long pigtails. Her hair was so long that even with her hair tied up in such a way, it still went well past her butt. There was a rather large ribbon in her hair that looked distinctly like a butterfly. She also had brilliant baby blue eyes that were honestly somewhat mesmerizing for him to peer into. This woman also seemed to radiate a kind of bubbly energy. She looked as if she was having a hard time sitting still. Naruto had to keep himself focused so he didn't peer below her head, because she currently sat with her legs up on the chair she was sitting in, giving a very clear view up her skirt. Whether she noticed this or not, or even if she cared, he wasn't sure. But he wasn't about to be labeled a pervert for sneaking a peek at her panties.

Looking at the other girl, the one sitting between Wedi and the blue-haired girl, Naruto immediately got the impression that was the bitchy type. She had long brownish-orange hair and wore a blue cap atop her head. She had green eyes that made him think of Sakura's. She also wore a blue corset-like dress with a white cape of sorts with long white sleeves that opened up at the end, allowing her to conceal things inside her sleeves and retrieve them as needed. At least, that's how Naruto viewed it. Practical uses everybody! Just looking at her and her green eyes, he couldn't help but find her reminiscent of Sakura. The bitchy attitude, the same piercing, green eyes…it was somewhat eerie.

This girl was the one to break the silence as she narrowed her eyes at him, looking as if she were already judging him based on appearances alone. "So who is this? Your new boyfriend, Wedi?"

Wedi blushed and quickly shook her head and hands negatively. "N-No! This is my new friend, Naruto Uzumaki-kun. As you can probably see, he, erm…he's not from here."

The orange-haired girl frowned as she looked him over again. "Obviously not. Nobody here would ever dress like that. It's atrocious!"

Naruto scowled at her and said, "Outfits like this are the only kind I have. I couldn't really afford anything special back where I come from. Besides, you act like I'm lower than dirt or something simply because I'm different. Now, let's try the introduction over again. I am Naruto Uzumaki. You are…?"

Narrowing her eyes at him, the girl was about to go into a tirade before Toki spoke up to try and keep the peace. "Reijo. Her name is Reijo. Reijo, please try not to be so rude to our guest, okay? I'm sure he has his reasons. Why don't we hear him out?"

The now-named Reijo just scoffed and looked away, not willing to admit she was in the wrong. So instead, Naruto turned his gaze to the final occupant of the room, or at least, who he thought was the final occupant. His attention was soon grabbed by movement down by his feet. Looking down, he saw… "Is that a dragon? Like, an actual, living, breathing dragon?"

Toki nodded and smiled kindly at him as he reached down and began to gently pet her pet. "Yes. His name is Drake. He's been my friend for a long time now. Drake doesn't usually like guys very much. He doesn't really get along with my boyfriend all that well…"

Reijo scowled at this point and said, "I still don't see what you see in that chickweed. As far as I'm concerned, he's just a pervert that doesn't respect you like he should. I don't care how 'nice' he seems, I don't trust him."

The princess just sighed and shook her head. "Zack's not a bad person. Yes, he may have some character flaws, but he's sweet and charming too. I'm sure he genuinely loves me. You'll see, Reijo. Someday."

Naruto frowned as he listened silently to the conversation taking place between the two women. He had a bad feeling that he wasn't going to like this Zack person that Toki was in a relationship with. It was just a gut feeling, but he always trusted his gut.

Ignoring that for the time being, he looked straight into the eyes of the blue-haired girl and asked, "So what's your name? You look like you're ready to burst out into song or something at any second."

The girl blinked a couple of times before shooting up in her chair and shouting, "That's a great idea! Why didn't I think of that?! You're a genius Naruto-kun! Oh!" Sitting down again, she leaned forward and looked into his eyes deeply. "I'm Enda. Nice to meetcha Naruto-kun! I wonder, if I break out into song, what should I sing? Decisions, decisions…"

Naruto chuckled a bit and said, "I can tell that I'm going to really like you, Enda-chan. I hope we get to be the very best of friends."

As Naruto smiled kindly at her, Enda nodded excitedly and said, "I'm looking forward to it, Naruto-kun! We're going to have so much fun together! Just you wait and see."

Toki looked between Naruto and Wedi for a moment before she asked, "So Wedi, what's going on? It must be important if you're bringing a guy you just met to see us."

Wedi looked at Naruto for a moment before turning her gaze to her friends. "Naruto-kun isn't from this world. He comes from another time and place, somewhere completely different than our world. I'm not sure of the details exactly, but my fairy friend trusts him, and so do I. I don't think he means any of us any harm."

The girls' eyes widened in shock at this before Reijo turned to him. "Is that true? Do you really come from another world? Why the heck'd you choose to come here?"

Naruto sighed and rubbed the back of his head. "Y'see, in order to explain all of that, I kind of need to start at the beginning. And it's going to be a long story. So before we begin, is there any chance we can get some refreshments of some kind?"

Toki nodded and she quickly went off with Reijo to get the required refreshments. Once they were gone, Enda began to look at Naruto curiously. "Soooo, you're like an alien or something? Like the beep boop beep kind? Where's the tentacles and nifty ray guns and stuff, huh?"

The blonde blinked in stupefaction for a moment before chuckling softly. Shaking his head, he said, "No, I'm not an alien of any kind. I'm a Human, like you and your friends. Only…slightly different, it would seem."

Enda simply hummed in disappointment. "That's a shame. I've always wanted to meet an alien and see what they were like. You're still cute though."

Blushing slightly, Naruto chuckled some more before rubbing the back of his head again. "Thanks Enda-chan. I think you're pretty cute too. You're pretty too." he admitted aloud.

Enda blushed a deep shade of red at this and quickly began poking her fingers together shyly, like he had seen Hinata do so often in the past. Smiling at her, he was about to say something else when they were interrupted. "Oh-ho. Trying to seduce dear Enda-chan already, are you?" Reijo questioned as she sat down again, placing a tray of tea before them on the round table.

Naruto blushed slightly and said, "Not really. I'm just speaking the truth. Enda-chan is honestly really pretty. At least I think so."

Toki smiled at him as she placed a tray of cookies down for them all to snack on. "That's very sweet of you Naruto-kun. Thank you. Now, you said that you have a long story for us. We're willing to listen and help, if we're able."

"Thanks Toki-chan." he said gratefully. Looking around into everyone's eyes, he soon reached up and untied his headband before placing it on the table, allowing his bangs to fall freely and frame his face nicely. "I come from a land called the Elemental Nations on a planet called Earth. I don't know all the exact details, as our history is kind of muddled in myths and rumors with very little facts being known about the time before ninjutsu."

"Anyways, supposedly, a great sage called the Sage of Six Paths is the one who gave my people the power of something called chakra. It's our very life energy, and we can use our chakra to do a lot of different things. We can spit fireballs, create clones of ourselves, some people can even fly. The Sage of Six Paths also created the nine bijuu. The bijuu are creatures of immense power and beings made of pure chakra. They cannot be killed and the only way to truly beat them is to seal them within an object…or a person."

Sighing heavily, he brushed his fingers through his hair and continued with his tale. "Anyways, the people that had a bijuu sealed within them are called jinchuriki, or Power of Human Sacrifice. There's the Ichibi, the Nibi, the Sanbi, Yonbi, Gobi, Rokubi, Nanabi, Hachibi, and the Kyuubi. The more tails a bijuu has, the more powerful it is. Naturally, this makes the Kyuubi the strongest of the bunch."

Frowning deeply, he looked into their eyes again and continued on once more. "Fast forward a ways and you have the founding of the village I come from: Konohagakure. A man by the name of Hashirama Senju and his friend/rival Madara Uchiha, along with Mito Uzumaki helped found the village together. There were a number of Hidden Villages, though the five major villages were Konohagakure, Sungakure, Kumogakure, Kirigakure, and Iwagakure. As I said, I am from Konohagakure."

"Anyways, there were constant wars between clans before the founding of the great ninja villages. After that, Hashirama Senju did battle with Madara and Mito sealed the Kyuubi within herself during said battle. Hashirama then divided the bijuu and traded them away like pets, teaching the other villages how to seal the bijuu. It was his 'great' idea of how to make peace with everyone. All that happened is they found a new use for their jinchuriki: war."

"One thing you need to know about jinchuriki is that they aren't born…they're made. And when the people seal the bijuu within someone, making them a jinchuriki, they're almost always treated like monsters. My friend Gaara had numerous attempts on his life because his 'wonderful' father wanted to have a strong weapon. And, as you may have guessed…I'm a jinchuriki as well."

Sighing softly, he soon took a sip of his tea to wet his tongue and throat some before he continued. "On the night of my birth, the Kyuubi attacked Konohagakure. I have my theories, but I can't prove anything. Never could, really. Anyways, the Fourth Hokage, a man named Minato Namikaze, sealed the Kyuubi within me. I carry the strongest of the nine bijuu within me."

"Anyways, continuing on. I was mistreated in numerous ways. Being sold rotten food and milk for ridiculous prices, being forced to dig through trashcans for scraps of food, I was chased by mobs out for my blood…and I was beaten. Numerous times they tried to kill me thinking that I AM the Kyuubi."

"I didn't have any friends growing up. I never really had anyone that I could call a friend or a loved one. I was always treated like I didn't matter, and if I started to prove that I could make something of myself and be better than what they wanted me to be…things got bad. So I had to pretend to be a loudmouthed idiot that could barely tie his shoelaces. Nobody could see through my mask that I put up."

"After some time, I finally became a shinobi of the village. This happened two years ago, when I was 15. I thought I could finally cast aside my mask…but then I was put on a team with Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, and Kakashi Hatake. The only person our sensei cared for was Sasuke, and if I had shown that I even had a little potential to be better than the village's golden boy, Sasuke…it would have ended badly for me. I couldn't get the type of training I had wanted, and I had to be that team's whipping boy, essentially. I was not respected or treated well on that team."

"Anyways, as time went on, I found that I had even fewer people in Konoha that cared about me than I thought. Which was pretty much to say nobody really did. At least, not until I left with a man called Jiraiya to retrieve the person that would be our new Hokage, Tsunade Senju."

"When I first met her, Tsunade was nothing more than a drunken old hag, and trust me, that's putting it mildly. I was disappointed in her and made sure she knew it too. I managed to help her overcome her fears and her own personal demons, and she came back to be the new Hokage. She and Shizune, her assistant, are the only ones that ever really saw the real me. They loved me for me, and I appreciated it. However…"

Sighing again, Naruto took another sip of tea before he continued on. "Sasuke Uchiha…I won't delve too much into his backstory. The main thing you should know about him is that he was the last of his clan and he had both a superiority and an inferiority complex. He was arrogant and full of himself, and yet he never felt like he was strong enough. The moment anyone showed they were better than him, he'd become frustrated and lash out."

"Well, one day he left to go and seek power from a man called Orochimaru. Sasuke CRAVED power and would do absolutely ANYTHING for it. I was sent on a mission to retrieve him and bring him back by any means necessary. But…while Sasuke was attempting to kill me, I held back. I knew that if I hurt him too badly, the councils would demand my blood. I had to make a choice between beating him to a bloody pulp and dragging him back that way…or letting him nearly kill me in our fight so he could escape to Orochimaru. I chose the latter of the two options."

Here, Naruto held up a finger, telling them to wait. Lifting up his shirt, which made the girls blush something awful, he showed them his scar. Once they had seen it, he put his shirt back in place and said, "Sasuke broke my neck during our fight. He also stabbed me through the chest in the place you just saw not just once, but twice with a technique Kakashi taught him called the Chidori. It's an assassination technique, but damn is it ever loud."

"Anyways, once Sasuke was gone, Jiraiya decided he would take me on a three year training trip to hopefully make me strong enough to fight a group of baddies that were after me known as the Akatsuki. They wanted to capture all the jinchuriki so they could extract their bijuu for themselves, though I don't know the reason why. But, the process ends up killing the jinchuriki. So…if, say for instance that I was captured and had the Kyuubi ripped out of me…I'd die."

"I had a lot of people out for my blood for one reason or another. So I had sincerely hoped that Jiraiya would take my training seriously and really prepare me to fight against the people that were after me. But there's one important thing you should know about Jiraiya: he's a self-proclaimed super pervert. He writes smut books for a living. That's literally all they are is smut scene after smut scene. There's no plot, no character development, just pure smut."

Grumbling for a while, he soon continued on. "Anyways, he did something that he called 'research' for his books. What this entailed is him peeking on women while they were bathing in the hot springs or when they were being intimate with their significant other. He would watch everything, jotting down notes and then using said women's measurements and appearances in his books. Jiraiya is pretty much the definition of a scumbag."

Seeing the looks of disgust on their faces, Naruto nodded and said, "I hate perverts with a passion. I'll admit, I can be a bit perverted at times, and I'll admit when I find a woman attractive, but I will NEVER stoop to the level of guys like him."

"Well, during the training trip, he wasn't even trying to teach me anything. Instead, he took off every chance he got so he could go and peep on women for his precious 'research'. So I took all of his books and notes on an art called fuinjutsu. After studying for some time and learning that I was quite adept at the art, I created a seal that would take me out of the Elemental Nations into a whole new world. And so, I ended up here, in your fine city. And I just realized I don't even know the name of the city yet. Wow."

Toki giggled a bit and said, "You're in the castle town of Kamza. This is my house. Technically I'm a princess, but I like the idea of living out here amongst my people. The castle can be a bit stuffy sometimes."

Naruto blinked a couple of times and said, "Wow. Can't say I was expecting to meet another princess here. Very nice to meet you Toki-chan. Or, should I call you Toki-sama? Toki-hime?"

"Toki-chan is fine, Naruto-kun." the redhead said. "It sounds like you've been through a lot. Would you mind answering some of our questions?"

The blue-eyed teen shrugged and said, "Sure. I don't mind answering if I can. What's on your mind?"

Toki frowned at him and asked, "Can anyone else come through from your world? I don't want my kingdom to be in danger from people that are after you. Oh! Don't worry, I have no intention of kicking you out or anything, I just want to be sure nobody can get here and hurt anyone."

Naruto shook his head and said, "I highly doubt anyone will ever come here. The seal I used was set to burn to a crisp and the ashes were to be blown away with the wind. Even if somebody was watching me, they'd never be able to replicate the seal. I made sure to take every precaution necessary to ensure it couldn't be copied, even by someone that might have been watching me. To outside viewers, the seal would appear blurry and wobbly and they wouldn't be able to make it out."

Shrugging, he picked up a cookie and took a bit. Moaning in delight, he quickly finished it before saying, "Oh Kami, these are delicious! Did you two make these? They're amazing!"

Toki giggled again and said, "Yes, Reijo and I made both the cookies and the tea you've been drinking. I'm glad you enjoy them. And…I'm glad nobody can follow you, Naruto-kun. From the sounds of it, I don't know if we have the kind of power needed to fend off these people that are after you."

"That makes sense. Like I said, don't worry too much about it. Anywho, any other questions?"

Enda shot her hand up into the air and said, "Ooh! Me, me! Can you show us any neat ninja tricks? Like woosh and bam and hiyah!"

Naruto chuckled softly as he watched Enda. She sure is full of energy. I like her. he thought to himself with a smile. After a time, he held up his right hand and formed a Rasengan and held it out for each of them to see. When Enda went to touch it, he dispelled the technique and wagged his finger at her. "Nuh-uh. That's a technique called the Rasengan. It grinds and tears away at anything it touches. Chances are, it would have torn your finger to shreds just by touching it."

The blue-haired girl blinked owlishly for a time before saying simply, "Well that could have been bad. I don't want to lose a finger!"

The blonde chuckled a bit and said, "Neither do I. So, anything else?"

Wedi decided to ask, "How is it you can see my fairy friend when everyone else has such a hard time making her out?"

Naruto blinked a couple of times at her strange question. "You mean…nobody else can see her? But she's literally right there. Then again, nobody seemed to be reacting to her… Huh. Weird. I don't know why I'm able to see her, Wedi-chan. I just know I can."

Reijo frowned in confusion. "Wait, so you're telling me there's an actual fairy there? Wedi's not just acting all spacey and airheaded when she talks about a fairy friend?"

Wedi pouted cutely and said, "That's not very nice. I've always been honest. I'll admit I'm kind of a klutz and I can be a bit…odd sometimes, but I'd never lie to any of you about something like this."

Naruto reached over and placed a gentle hand upon Wedi's, giving it a gentle squeeze. "It's okay Wedi-chan. If it helps any, I think your friend is a cute little thing. I'm personally glad I can see her."

"Thank you, Naruto-kun." Wedi said with a happy smile on her face. "Umm…oh! I know! Did you have a significant other back where you're from? Or were you really…all alone? Because that sounds really sad."

Naruto chuckled dryly and shook his head. "No significant other of any kind. No one really interested me either. I don't know if anyone did like me, but it doesn't matter. I want to start a new life here and be happy with new friends. Maybe a girlfriend. Settle down, get married, and live a normal, happy life. I don't want to have to always look over my shoulder. I don't want to have to fight all the time. I just…I want to live in peace and be with people I love."

"Then you should live with one of us! We'd be glad to keep you company, Naruto-kun! We'll be your bestest friends and you'll never have to be lonely ever again. In fact, you can just move in with me!" Enda exclaimed, sounding as cheerful as ever.

Naruto blushed deeply at the thought of living with Enda. Before he could say anything, however, Reijo spoke up. "Enda! You can't be serious?! You barely know him. What if…what if he's a pervert, like that Jiraiya guy he talked about?"

Hearing this, the blonde scowled and looked down, his hair shadowing his eyes. "I am NOTHING like Jiraiya. I hate that man with a passion. I already said that I have some perverted thoughts every now and again, but I'm not the kind to act on perversions. I treat people with respect. Especially women. As far as I'm concerned, women are stronger than men in a number of ways and they are definitely worthy of respect."

Reijo frowned slightly, but nodded in acceptance. "Oh, very well. But still, isn't it a little sudden, Enda?"

Enda shook her head and said with a bright smile on her face, "Not at all. Naruto-kun needs a home and I'm willing to provide one for him. We can be roommates! Maybe he could even help me get my hair just right. We can sing and dance and play all day long if we want to! I trust him Reijo."

Naruto smiled in thanks. "Thank you so much, Enda-chan. I won't betray your trust. I promise. And one thing about me that will never change is that I don't break a promise. Well, except for one…" Sighing, he rubbed the back of his head and shook it off. "Never mind. I'm not going to dwell on that."

Toki smiled and said, "Well, I think we've asked enough of you by now. I think it's time we start to tell you a little about our world. First, you should know that you're in the kingdom of Kamza and, as I said, you're in the castle town of Kamza. I'm the princess of the kingdom. There's a big, wide world out there and it's inhabited by a lot of, erm…monsters. Undead, robots, assassins, golems, etc. If you ever venture outside of Kamza, you'll see what I mean. And in this world, there's magic instead of this chakra thing you talked about. For instance, I've been trained in combat using a rifle and a dagger. I also have the ability to cast a variety of powerful magic spells. I can fling fireballs, rain lightning down on my enemies, and I even have the ability to use time magic. Hopefully I never have to make use of that though…"

Naruto chuckled wryly as he looked at Toki. "You probably just jinxed yourself, Toki-chan."

The redhead giggled somewhat abashedly before she decided to continue. "Anyways, there's really not too much to tell. There's four sages, each within their own garden off to the northeast of Kamza. There's a bunch of islands out at sea that you can visit if you'd like, especially if you're interested in catching some unique kinds of fish. Ummm, what else is there? Oh! There's a wonderful bakery down by the docks. You can get the most delectable sweets there. Though, the owner and his employees are a little…eccentric."

Wedi giggled a bit at that before looking into Naruto's eyes and saying, "If you have any questions for any of us, we'll be happy to answer. But for now, I think the best thing you can do is walk around the city and get a feel for it yourself. First though, Enda should show you to her house where you'll be staying."

Before Enda could say anything in confirmation, the front door opened and a man called out, "Toki-chan! I'm home!"

Looking at the man, warning bells immediately went off in Naruto's head. He stood just as tall as Naruto at an even six feet tall and he was slightly muscular as well, which showed he definitely worked out some. This man had dark blue hair and blue eyes and was dressed like a typical medieval knight. As Toki hurried over to him and threw her arms around him, planting a kiss on his lips, Naruto could feel something snapping in his mind. All that he could see was Jiraiya's image plastered over this man's. Immediately he knew that this man was a pervert on the same level as Jiraiya, and that immediately put him on his shit list.

As the man approached them, he paused when he saw Naruto sitting in his usual seat. "Toki-chan, who is this and why is he sitting in my spot?"

Naruto put on a fake smile, one that the girls easily saw through, and stood up, moving aside to allow the man to have his spot. Instead, Naruto sat down on a nearby couch and set Drake down in his lap. I already don't like this guy and I don't even know him yet… Oh, if only Naruto knew just how bad this man was, he'd realize that his first impression of this man was spot on. He'd better not hurt Toki-chan…

A/N - And that's the chapter! As you can see, Jiraiya is being punished pretty severely for what he's done. And despite my wishes, the chapter was getting a little on the lengthy side, so I decided to end it where I did. I was going to have Naruto summon Fukasaku and Shima in this chapter so he could talk to them about what's going on and ask them to deliver a message for him, buuut I'll just have to do that in the next chapter. :P

Anywho, for those reading this that have no idea about Time & Eternity, it's a game for the PS3 that is kind of an underrated gem. It's an interesting little RPG game with a pretty good, interesting storyline. The characters are all quite unique and a lot of crazy things happen throughout the game. It's also got its pretty funny moments, as well as a number of ecchi scenes as well. All-in-all, it's a pretty good game. It's really easy with only two or three hard bosses that can kill you if you're not careful, but everything else in the game is pretty dang easy. So if you have a PS3 and are interested in seeing what it's like, I highly recommend it.

If you don't want to give it a try, but you're still curious, find a let's play of it on youtube or something and watch for a while. It's a pretty interesting game.

Anyways, I hope you're looking forward to the next chapter. I know I'm eager to have some fun with it. But for noooow...I dunno what I'll work on next. I rarely do! Mwahahahahahaaaa!
