The scene starts with a look at a lake. There is a young boy standing near the edge of the water. He's wearing some rather old-fashioned outfit. He reaches down and picks up a stone.

'I wonder who that is.' Naruto says to the group. He gets no response.

'This time I'll reach it for sure.' But before he can throw the stone another stone flies past. It skips a couple of times on the water before making it to the other side. The boy looks behind him to see who threw the stone.

Behind him is another boy, the difference being his ridiculous haircut. 'Just aim it a little higher than you would expect.' The boy smiles. 'That's the trick.'

'He looks ridiculous.' Neji doesn't laugh but if he was any less stiff he would've.

'This might be the first fragment we see of the past.' Shikamaru says. There are plenty others that agree with him.

'Why?' Naruto asks.

'Look at their clothes. That's not something we wear nowadays.' Naruto takes another good look and finds himself agreeing with the other boy. It doesn't change the fact that the second boy's hairstyle is awful.

The first boy looks at the other in disgust. 'I don't need you to tell me that. It will reach the other side if I put my all into it!' He turns to look at the other boy. 'Who the hell are you anyway?'

The other boy hums. 'Right now, I'm just your rival at stone skipping.' The boy smirks. 'Though mine has reached the other side.'

There is a moment of silence before an older voice starts narrating. 'That was the first time I encountered Uchiha Madara.' There is another pause in which they look at the boys from above.

'Who's speaking?' Sakura asks the others around her. No one can answer that question without getting to look at the person. But with the words spoken they can rule out a good amount of people.

'Why is there a narrator?' Fugaku instead asks. But he too is met with silence. A narrator would suggest that this is story being told rather than something happening in the present.

'From what he said we can conclude that the first boy is Madara.' Shikaku says. The others agree.

'I asked who you are!' the boy named Madara shouts at the other.

'It's Hashirama. I can't tell you my last name due to reasons.' Hashirama laughs at the other.

'Are we witnessing a legendary moment or what?' Shisui mutters. He's heard about it. It's one of the great stories that always get told around festivities but to see it happen in front of him is certainly something else. There is a lot less embellishment.

'I think we are.' Itachi stares at the screen, eyes not leaving it for a second. He too must be a little taken.

'Hashirama, eh?' Madara turns to face the river again. He gets himself ready to throw the stone. 'Just watch. I'm gonna make it this time.' He reaches his arm back and throws the stone with a familiar sound.

The way he throws… it's the shuriken jutsu! Hashirama thinks. The stone that has been thrown doesn't make it all the way to the other side. Instead it disappears in the flowing river.

'He sucks at stone skipping.' Sasuke laughs. He can only do that because he does know how to skip stones, it's one of his favorite pastimes.

'Does that count as a weakness?' Naruto asks.

Shikamaru scoffs. 'I doubt it.'

This cuts to the stumped faces of the boys. Madara is sweating before he turns to Hashirama again. 'You stood behind me on purpose to distract me!' Hashirama in turn winces backwards. 'I'm the type that can't even pee when someone's standing behind me!' Madara shouts at the other boy who's getting more panicked by the second.

'This might be an actual weakness we can exploit.' Sasuke nods wisely.

Naruto laughs at him. 'Yeah. Let me take a piss when I'm doing taking over the world in the middle of a battle.'

'Not like that.' Sasuke glares at the other boy but doesn't say anything else. He doesn't want to disrupt the watching.

Then Hashirama falls down to the ground with a depressive aura surrounding him. 'S-sorry.' He stammers out. Madara just watches in astonishment.

'Is this seriously the first?' Mikoto asks. Her eyes are wide, she doesn't quite believe what she's seeing. She did not think he was such a person.

'Don't worry. He did that a lot.' The Hokage assured them. It only did the opposite though.

'Why were people scared of him?' Hiashi mutters with his head in his hands. He too has heard plenty of stories of the man but to think he was such an idiot.

'Don't take it so seriously…' Madara tries to soothe the boy. 'I was just making excuses.'

'I didn't know…' There is a banging sound. 'That you had such an obnoxious self-diagnosed neurosis.'

'A what?' Naruto asks. But he doesn't get a response.

'I can't tell if you're a nice guy or a nasty guy!' Madara points at Hashirama, who stands up again and laughs happily.

'One thing's for sure! I'm better than you at stone skipping!' he teases Madara, who gets pissed off not long after.

'Want me to skip you instead?' And Hashirama's depressive mood is back in full force.

'They really have a strange dynamic going on.' Inoichi says. As he works as a part time therapist at points he has seen some strange dynamics. This is one of the weirder ones.

'It's like they've been friends for a long time.' Shikaku agrees.

'I didn't mean to upset you.' He says. 'To make amends, I'll let you throw me into the river.' Madara's eye twitches. 'Go ahead and throw me.'

'Do you even notice your own obnoxious neurosis?' he stammers out.

'I just hope I reach the opposite shore.' Hashirama says as he makes a funny voice. Madara does not think it's funny though.

'I highly doubt that.' By no matter of physics should that ever make any sense. Neji sighs. He might be the first Hokage but he's an idiot. Fate should've deemed him too stupid to survive.

'Who knows. They say idiots float.' Tenten laughs.

'Don't call the first an idiot.' Ino says to the other girl.

'It's fine. Everyone called him that.' Naruto says. He's heard plenty of stories from the Old Man about the man.

'You're a real eyesore! Get lost!' Madara shouts at the boy. Who gets up a second later.

'Well goodbye then.' As he turns to leave Madara grabs him by the shoulders.

'Wait a second!'

'Madara is a walking contradiction, isn't he?' Shisui laughs. He never in his life thought he would get the opportunity to ridicule Madara but now that he has he's going to take advantage of it.

'Sounds about right.' Kakashi agrees.

'Which is it? Why don't you be more clear?' Just as Madara was about to object a body floats past in the river. Hashirama walks over the water to get closer to investigate. At this moment Madara realizes the boy is also a ninja.

'Gross.' Lee mutters from the side.

'Sadly, it's more common that you think.'

'Are you a ninja?'

'This location will become a battlefield soon. Go home.' Hashirama mutters out. He takes a look at the body. This is a Hagoromo clan crest… 'Sorry, but I've got to go.' He jumps up to the other side of the river and is about to say goodbye. 'Uh?'

'My name is Madara.' Madara smirks. 'Not proffering one's family name to a stranger is ninja law.'

'Really?' Naruto asks. He does want to be known over countries after all.

'Back then it was.' The Hokage explains. 'Nowadays with the improvement of technology and the existence of pictures it's not that big of a deal.'

'I never knew that.' And Naruto wasn't the only one. Most of the older ninjas in the room didn't know either. It's a rule long since abandoned ever since hidden villages became a thing.

'I knew it. You're a ninja too?'

Then all of a sudden, the screen gets a white light covering it, and the adult voice starts narrating again. 'Our personalities differed, and yet I sensed a mysterious connection with him. I felt I knew why he'd come down to the river too.' Then the scene ends.

'Mysterious connection, how mysterious.' Chouji says as he takes another bite of another treat he managed to get for himself.

'Really?' Naruto glances at Chouji. Did the boy have to say that? Naruto has felt plenty of mysterious connections before. Like with Sasuke, and Kakashi, and people working at Ichiraku.

'That certainly was something I'd never thought I'd see.' Tsume says. She has put her dog on her lap, no matter how much that obscured her vision.

'A meeting that would eventually allow them to put aside their differences and create the first hidden village.' Fugaku agrees.

'But does it have anything to do with the future?' Chouza asks. He—like his son—has some sort of treat in his hands that he continuously takes some food from.

'Considering that they are present during the future it might be something important.' Shikaku says. A part of him is bothered that the device can't give them the information in order, it would certainly make things a lot easier.

'It was pretty entertaining too.' Shisui laughs. 'In my opinion.' He responds after receiving some weird looks. 'I always thought they would be super stuck up or something, like most old people. But they were just stupid kids too.'

'I'm fairly certain they remained that way.' The elderly Hokage mutters but everyone caught it.

'I wonder what's next.' Naruto is bouncing on his seat already. He hopes it's him doing something epic, like saving a princess.

'Let's see.' They all turn to look at the screen.

The screen lights up once again, this time displaying the title: 'The smooch of the century.'

'Are we talking about a kissing smooch?' Shisui darts his eyes around the room. He does not think there is anyone here that would go and make their kiss super important.

'I hope so.' Tenten laughs. She would love to see some romance.

'I hope it's super romantic!' Ino can already see it in front of her. She and Sasuke.

'Ino, put your fantasies on a halt.' Sakura says as she gives her friends a small punch.

Naruto and Sasuke are glaring at each other as the rest of the class watches. Several of Sasuke's fangirls are defending him.

'I wonder what they got into an argument over.' Shino says in complete monotone. No one really takes any notice of him.

'I hope this is going the way I want it to.' Shisui is pretty much bouncing in his seat. As soon as he saw the two boys on screen he has an inkling as to where this is going.

'Leave Sasuke alone!' Sakura screams at Naruto. Naruto doesn't take any mind.

'Wow. She's a fangirl.' Jiraiya mutters. He's dealt with them a lot over the years and they never cease to not scar him.

'I'm right here.' Sakura glares at the pervert.

'Sorry.' Jiraiya says. He then mutters to himself. 'I hope she gets over it.'

Naruto and Sasuke lean even closer to each other, the sparks are flying between the two of them. Another group of fangirls jump in for Sasuke.

'Hit him Sasuke!'

'How many does he have?' The Uchiha are known for their large following fangirls but this is a lot even for them. Not that Tsume doesn't think he's good looking.

Naruto and Sasuke keep on glaring at each other. Until suddenly the boy behind Naruto accidently hits him. Naruto falls forward, right onto Sasuke. Their lips touch in most extravagant fashion. Sakura, Ino and the other fangirls watch on in horror.

The reactions are instantaneous. Naruto and Sasuke pale, like really pale. They glance at each other but then quickly turn away. The others in the room are nearly bursting with laughter.

'Oh my!' Tenten laughs. This might not be what she hoped for, but this is good too.

'This is awesome.' Ino's inner yaoi fangirl surfaces. Her father however is quite disturbed by his daughter. She's too young to be thinking these things.

'Ino!'

'How dare he.' Itachi mutters. 'Sasuke is mine.' Shisui glances at his friend and nearly bursts out laughing at the dark look on his face.

'He's your little brother.' Kakashi says with his half-read book in front of him. Why would he be reading now?

'Naruto you piece of crap. You are so dead!' Sasuke tries to desperately clean his mouth of the taste of Naruto.

'That's prince charming for ya.' Jiraiya laughs. He's just glad he never got into that situation with Orochimaru.

'Poison my mouth is ruined!' Naruto coughs a couple of times until he stills. Why am I sensing bloodlust?

'Oh dear.' Hiashi says. He knows where this is going. He has been in the same situation once.

'I would suggest running Naruto.' Mikoto laughs. Her son is so handsome.

'It hasn't happened yet!' Naruto yells at the rest of the room. They only laugh harder.

'Naruto…' Sakura cracks her knuckles. Her face is blank with anger.

'It was an accident! I swear!' Naruto tries to defend himself, but it has no effect.

'Like saying that is going to do anything.' Jiraiya mutters. With all the experience from Tsunade he knows where this is going.

'You make me sick.' Then they hear the sounds of punches being thrown over a shot of the village.

'Rest in peace.' Sasuke laughs.

Chouji plays into the act as well. 'It was nice knowing you.'

'Stop joking. I was around even further in the future.' Naruto yells at the other kids.

'Be glad I let you live.' Sasuke sticks out his tongue.

'That was certainly something.' The adults all had the same thought. It did not help one bit with the future.

'I wish I didn't have to witness that.' Sakura says. Not only did it show her in a bad light, it was pretty cruel.

Shisui meanwhile turns to Itachi again. The boy still has that dark look on his face. 'Itachi stop plotting your revenge.'

'I'm not doing that.' Itachi blinks and the darkness is gone. Back is the innocent looking boy.

'Then what are you doing?'

'Planning the wedding.' Itachi explains.

'Like hell I'm going to marry him!' Sasuke shouts at his brother. No way. He's not going to marry anyone ever. Girls are gross.

'He took your first kiss. Which means you should get married.' Itachi explains to his little brother.

'I don't think that's how it works.' Shisui says to his friend.

'Then how does it?' Itachi asks with the most adorable look on his face.

'Uh… Not that way.' Does Itachi really not know?

'Let's just move on.' Kakashi says. Then they turn to the screen once again.

'A beautiful friendship.' Is what the screen displays this time. No one had any idea what it meant.

'I wonder if it's serious this time.' Shikamaru says out loud. He's been getting tired of all these funny ones. He wants progress.

'Or if it's just as ironic as the one before.' Neji agrees with the other boy. He might think Shikamaru is the only other intelligent one there.

'Right.'

'Hello again.' A strange boy says. He's rather boring looking, pale skin, black hair, nothing you haven't seen before. He's also quite handsome. Not to mention the strange smile on his face.

'You!' Naruto points at the other guy. Sakura looks at Naruto is surprise. Does he know that guy?

'Can anyone tell me who that guy is?' Sakura asks. She's never seen him before.

'One of them is Naruto. The other I don't know.' Kakashi says. Everyone turns to look at him. Kakashi doesn't react.

'Jeez.' Neji says. 'Anyone else?'

'Nothing comes to mind.' No one seems to know this boy. Yet he's somehow important in the future.

'Future Naruto seems to recognize him.' Shikamaru says. It's the only hint they have as to who this boy is.

'Not in a good way.'

'So… uhm… starting today I'll be filling in for Kakashi.' A man with another plain looking face says.

'I do know that guy.' Kakashi says. 'His name is Tenzo.' He's worked with him before, though not always in the best circumstances.

'And he's your replacement.' Naruto nods. He didn't think Kakashi would be that good of a teacher, especially with how good of a brother he was.

'Fill in. There's a difference.' Kakashi says. Naruto shrugs. Same difference.

'Naruto you know this guy?' Sakura asks.

'Sorry about our earlier encounter.' The boy starts explaining. 'I was just curious to see how strong my future teammate might be,' the smile on his face does not falter, 'and whether or not I'd eventually have to come to the little boy's aid.'

'That's not very nice.' Chouji says. He would never say such a thing to anyone.

'So, he's an asshole.' Naruto says as he leans further back in his chair. 'Great, as if Sasuke wasn't bad enough.' Sasuke only shoots him a glare.

'What!' Naruto shouts at the guy. 'Hey! We have to work together, so don't fight right from the get-go!' He makes some exaggerated gestures at the guy.

'And you, that wasn't very nice.' Sakura says to the boy.

'Really? But I like ugly girls like you.' The strange boy says with a smile on his face.

'Either this guy really is an asshole, or he's got zero social skills.' Shisui says. Itachi agrees.

'I'm willing to bet it's both.'

'What did you just say!' Sakura is ready to go for the attack. The boy might not know but she's strong and she doesn't like being insulted.

'Whoa! Easy Sakura!' Tenzo says as he holds the girl to prevent her from attacking the guy. 'Follow your own advice.'

'Don't worry, I would have gone after him as well.' Ino says to her friend. Sakura looks at her gratefully.

'I think we should talk about proper social skills soon.' It's not like that boy is the only one lacking, Iruka thinks.

'There wasn't much to that.' Inoichi says. Most of the others agree. So far not a lot of the fragments had given them that much information. Most actually had been more for entertainment. Maybe all the serious stuff would come later.

'Other than the information that at some point Kakashi isn't available.' Shikaku says.

'I wonder what could've caused that?' Kakashi says. He's not one to disappear all of a sudden. He is one of the best ninjas in the village for a reason.

'It might just have been that he's gone on a mission.' Shisui tries explaining but his gut tells him otherwise. Something must have happened. At least Kakashi is still alive.

'I doubt that.'

'Then there is the fact that Sasuke isn't there as well.' Itachi says. Leave it to the older brother to notice that his little brother is missing.

'You're right. They are on the same team.' His father says. The others do agree. It's nothing unheard of but it's a little strange.

'At this point we don't have enough context to get any answers.' Shikaku says. The others turn to look at the screen once more.

'What's up next?'

'Earthquake alert.' The screen displays.

'Sounds fun.' Naruto says. He doesn't like earthquakes at all. They make him pay for stupid things because stuff gets broken all the time.

'If we want to rebuild our homes that is.'

Sakura's face is shown up close her eyes dart around her. Right. She looks up. Above. She looks left. Left. Behind. She takes a position for an attack. No sign of him anywhere so… 'Below!' She shouts as she goes for the attack.

'She's improved since she was little.' Jiraiya says in approval.

'I hope she has.' Tsume says. She has no respect for fangirls. And if this first little bit is telling she's grown out of it. Thankfully.

Her punch reaches the ground and the effect is instantaneous. The ground beneath her shatters on impacts, dust flies everywhere and Naruto who's also on the field has to do an evasive maneuver to avoid the damage.

'Holy moly!' Naruto shouts out loud. Sasuke shoves him in the side to quiet him down.

'We've got another Tsunade on our hands.' Jiraiya says. He hoped that day would never come. Another girl he would have to watch out for.

'And I was hoping we wouldn't have to deal with those random earthquakes anymore.' Hiashi mutters. Tsunade was bad enough.

'At least we know what kind of training she should be getting.' The Hokage nods. It's great that there is someone to follow in Tsunade's footsteps. If only she didn't also have the temper.

'Whoa!' Naruto is stupefied by the sheer amount of strength his teammate has. His eyes are wide with fear. He just glad it wasn't aimed at him.

'What are they doing anyway?' Sasuke asks.

'Naruto looks ready to attack as well.' Shikamaru agrees. There must be something going on, but it doesn't look super dangerous.

Then they see Kakashi appear from beneath the rubble. What raw power. Looks like medical ninjutsu wasn't all Tsunade taught you Sakura.

'Tsunade came back?' Jiraiya says. He never expected that. She had been pretty adamant at staying away forever.

'And she took another student.' Hiruzen says. He seriously thought Shizune would have been the last.

'Another Tsunade indeed.' Chouza grumbles. As strong as she was the earthquakes were not something anyone wanted to deal with.

'I can already feel the headache my future self has.' Fugaku mutters. Why does this girl have to be on Sasuke's team? That's only going to bother him.

Sakura smiles in victory. 'Found you.'

'It's seems it was some sort of training exercise with Kakashi.' Itachi explains.

Kakashi hides behind his book. 'I don't want to fight her anymore.'

'She must not be angered.' Shisui agrees.

'Boy. If what we saw previously is true, then she's easily angered.' Jiraiya says.

'No!' Shisui weeps. This is only going to be annoying.

'I hope the next scene has more to offer in terms of future progression.' Shikamaru mutters. He was here to learn not to laugh at Naruto.

'We all do.' Iruka says. He still doesn't quite know what he's doing here. He's only been in one scene so far and it wasn't that impressive.

'My notes are getting a bit messy.' Shisui says as he looks over them.

The Hokage sighs. 'As long as we can still read it it's fine.'

'Shall we move on then?' Kakashi asks. They all nod and turn to the screen again.

The screen lights up again. This time reading the words: 'Real criminals knock on doors.'

'No, they don't.' Naruto says. Everyone that robbed never came in announced.

'Not any criminals I know of.' Itachi has to agree with the boy on that one.

'Maybe it's the red cloud organization again.' Lee says.

'I hope it is.'

Again thank you to everyone that left suggestions. I will do all of them don't worry. But I'm ordering them in such a way that it's the most entertaining to read. Also I can do only a small amount of scenes per chapter so it might take a while.

Thank you to El Publicano on ffnet for the suggestion of the kissing scene. As well as Xzshin for the suggestion of Sai insulting Naruto and Sakura.
