Hello everyone,
How is everyone doing? I am okay I guess. I just did one of my big English projects and it was awful and I hope I get a good grade I worked hard on that assignment. Enough babbling for me onto the reviews.
Reviews:

Guest: Thank you.
dominator088: Thank you I appreciate that very much.
Ita1412: Tsunade can heal Itachi but he keeps refusing at the moment. As for how they got into the past let's just say someone wanted a better future and sent them back.
Mikuqueen: I know it's a guilty pleasure that I have along with reading but I am glad you're enjoying it.

Enjoy the chapter everyone.
Naruto and Itachi have been in the past for about two weeks and they were getting annoyed more and more by each other. Being around together constantly didn't help that factor either.
"Naruto I am leaving," Itachi said as he walked out to go talk to the Hokage.
"Whatever," Naruto said as he continued to read books about time travel.
Kurama was really helpful so it helped that he was around. Naruto even caught himself going around the village during the day to train or to just read. He felt his dad on him a lot of the time or even Jiraiya which made him laugh. He even considered getting seal training from them especially because he really wanted to learn but had no one to teach him since Jiraiya died on him.
Itachi didn't like when Naruto went outside by himself but he didn't really care what Itachi had to say so he did it anyway and this was one of those times.
"You know you can come out," Naruto said already tired from not sleeping to ignore that he was being followed.
"Is this the guy?" Fugaku asked Minato.
"Yeah," Minato said staring at the blonde with bright eyes.
"You're actually pretty cute," Kushina said popping up next to Minato.
"Are you three assigned to me?" Naruto asked playing like he didn't know they all were.
"No," Fugaku answered. "I just wanted to know what you were like and the Uchiha that never comes to the district," Fugaku said.
Naruto forgot for a second there that the Uchiha clan was still alive in this time and they were a lot closer to the village too which was another thing that Naruto noticed. Naruto noticed the differences from Konoha now to Konoha in his time. There was a lot and he was curious to know why.
"My name is Naruto," Naruto said holding his hand out in an introduction.
Kushina took it without a problem introducing her but Fugaku stared at it with distaste.
"Fugaku Uchiha," Fugaku said crossing his arms over his chest.
"You're a lot like one of my friends," Naruto said with a chuckle pulling his hand away from Fugaku.
He can't believe he was meeting Sasuke's parents and how old they were. When you're a kid you can't really picture your parents young but this was weird for him.
"That other Uchiha?" Fugaku questioned.
"Hn," Naruto grunted with a chuckle and walked away from the three.
They were his age at the moment and Naruto didn't see any point in telling his secrets to them. He wanted to talk to Jiraiya anyway.
"Hey blondie," Naruto called out without looking over his shoulder.
"My name is Minato Namikaze," Minato said a bit annoyed.
"Yeah, um... can you take me to Jiraiya?" Naruto asked.
"Jiraiya sensei?" Minato questioned.
"Yeah, I kind of wanted him to teach me something," Naruto said.
"What do you want him to teach you? Maybe I can be of help; I was his student for seven years now." Minato said.
"No, its okay I want to talk to him anyway. I'm sure you know what I want to ask him anyway." Naruto said walking away then started to go in sage mode so he could find Jiraiya then a thought came to mind and he followed his instincts to where he thought Jiraiya would be and he was right.
He was at the bath house.
"Jiraiya you pervert," Naruto mumbled as he sensed his chakra walking into the bathhouse and kicking Jiraiya out of the peephole he was in. "YOU SICK BASTARD!" Naruto screamed and dragged Jiraiya out the bath house.
"Geez, kid how did you find my hiding spot?" Jiraiya asked rubbing the back of his head.
"Let's just say you don't do a good job at hiding your chakra," Naruto said.
"That's a cover reason huh?" Jiraiya said with a raised eyebrow.
"Who cares the fact that I know and will give it to Tsunade is all you should know," Naruto said making a threat.
"IS this blackmail?" Jiraiya asked standing up.
"Take it how you will perv, but I won't say anything if you can help me with something," Naruto said.
"Now you're forcing me to do your bidding?" Jiraiya asked.
"No, it's a proposition?" Naruto asked.
"What is it?" Jiraiya asked.
"Can you teach me Fuinjutsu?" Naruto asked.
"That's all?" Jiraiya asked shocked.
"Yeah that's all," Naruto said.
"I guess kid it won't be a problem," Jiraiya said.
"Thanks, I appreciate it," Naruto said with a big smile that shocked Jiraiya because he only saw the kid in a serious way.
"NARUTO!" Itachi screamed.
"What? Ya damn bastard what are you screaming about?" Naruto asked annoyed his mood changing immediately.
"I already told you," Itachi growled.
"Yeah and I don't like listening to you," Naruto said walking toward Itachi. "See you later old perv," Naruto said to Jiraiya as he followed Itachi back to their apartment.
They walked to the apartment in complete silence and didn't plan to break it. Itachi was clearly annoyed and Naruto didn't care enough to say anything. The moment they got into the apartment it was a whole other story.
"God damn it Naruto can you listen to me for once?" Itachi asked annoyed trying his best not to fight the blonde.
"Listen you have me stay in the apartment the whole fucking time while you go and talk to the Hokage and just expect me to stay here. I don't fucking care about your rules and regulations," Naruto snapped.
Itachi was trying to calm his temper and one way to do that made him leave Naruto in the kitchen while he went to the bedroom.
"You're just going to walk away?" Naruto asked as he watched Itachi trying to get away.
"If I stay in this room I am going to say things that will make us both snap so it's for the best," Itachi said shutting the bedroom door.
Naruto sat at the kitchen table also not wanting to get into a fight with the Uchiha. Then a thought came to his mind. A fight might be a good idea.
"YOU KNOW WHAT UCHIHA YOU FUCKING ANNOY ME AND I SHOULD PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE!" Naruto screamed.
"Naruto shut up," Itachi said in a low voice but could still be heard despite being in the other room.
"NO, I AM SICK OF YOUR CONTROLLING WAYS! I'M NOT YOUR BROTHER ITACHI YOU CAN'T CONTROL ME!" Naruto screamed making Itachi angry which led to him getting up and punching Naruto in the face.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP NARUTO!" Itachi screamed as he sent Naruto flying.
Naruto flew back at him and they started fighting hand to hand combat. It was getting violent quickly and they stayed away from using their chakra against each other.
"Fuck you bastard," Naruto said jumping out the window.
Itachi snarled but chased after Naruto.
"NARUTO YOU BASTARD!" Itachi screamed but Naruto was focused on getting away from the main area so they could fight in the training grounds.
"What's up Itachi you can't take a few words?" Naruto mocked speeding up with his chakra and by the time Itachi caught up to him they made it to the training grounds and he got kicked in the chest.
"You don't know shit," Itachi snapped.
"Of course, I don't, how would I?" Naruto said back with a chuckle hitting Itachi back.
The two stopped talking and started fighting and a few people were alerted to the fight. It was wild and free that it started making both ninjas laugh.
"You did this on purpose," Itachi said as they lay on the ground.
"What would you say if I said it was?" Naruto asked.
"I would want to know why," Itachi said.
"Well I think you needed it to be honest," Naruto said.
"I don't like you at all and not only that now I'm sore," Itachi said.
"YOU TWO WHY THE HELL ARE YOU DESTROYING THE TRAINING GROUNDS!" Tsunade screamed.
Naruto and Itachi look around and notice the damage they did around the training grounds.
"Oh," Naruto said.
"Oh, that's all you have to say?" Tsunade asked.
"Sorry," Naruto said shrugging his shoulders.
"Can you heal me?" Itachi asked.
"You two are annoying," Tsunade said coming toward them and kneeling in front of Itachi as she started to heal him. "You should really go to the doctor for your illness it's pretty serious," Tsunade said as she healed him.
"That's none of your business but thank you for the concern," Itachi said.
Naruto got up and looked down at Itachi and even made brief eye contact with him before Naruto stood and walked away from the two of them.
"Naruto?" Itachi said curiously stopping Tsunade and getting up.
Naruto didn't say anything or even turn back going back to the apartment locking the bathroom door and leaning against the door. Itachi was confused and he honestly didn't know what was going on. When he walked into the apartment he knew where Naruto was and was sure that Naruto wasn't sure what was going on.
"Naruto are you going to come out of the bathroom?" Itachi asked as he leaned against the door.
"No," Naruto said.
"What?" Itachi said shocked.
"You lie too much Itachi," Naruto said.
"What are you talking about?" Itachi asked.
"You lied about everything didn't you?" Naruto asked.
"I don't know what you're talking about Naruto," Itachi said as he leaned against the door.
"You know what I'm talking about bastard," Naruto said getting irritated.
"Are you going to just outright ask me what you're talking about or not?" Itachi asked.
"Why do you want Sasuke to kill you?" Naruto asked.
Itachi flinched glad that Naruto couldn't see him at the moment.
"That's not your business," Itachi said.
"You know what Itachi I think you're a liar and when we go back to our time I am going to find out your secret and tell Sasuke what it is," Naruto said annoyed.
"You have no right to tell him anything especially when you don't know shit," Itachi said not moving.
"I know that you're sick to the point of dying and you're not saying anything about it. I know there is something about the day I was born that made the Uchiha family get pushed back farther away from the village. I know that you know more than you say you do and I also know that there is a reason you keep going back to Gramps." Naruto said.
"Why does this all concern you?" Itachi asked.
"Because Sasuke is my best friend and I don't want him to do something that he will regret later in life," Naruto said.
"Fine I am sick and have been for a while that's why I am trying to push him to kill me faster," Itachi said giving a little bit of information away.
"Why though? Why do you want him to kill you?" Naruto asked.
"Because I need to pay for my transgressions," Itachi said.
"Very poetic justice if you ask me. What I really think is that you feel guilty about what you did or you regret it because why would you feel the need to have your brother kill you." Naruto said.
'When did he become sharp?' Itachi thought to himself.
"I can feel you questioning my intelligence right now," Naruto said annoyed.
"I don't regret or feel guilty about it," Itachi said.
"Yeah keep telling yourself that," Naruto said as he opened the door. "When we go back I will know the truth of everything," Naruto said going to lie in his bed.
That night was awkward for the both of them. Then it followed up the following week where they were awkward toward one another. It got to the point where Naruto was gone the majority of the time training with Jiraiya.
After a while, Itachi was sick of being avoided and he took the opportunity to talk to Naruto at night time as they were going to sleep.
"You know I didn't think everything through in my decisions," Itachi said making Naruto put his book down shocked.
"What are you talking about?" Naruto asked.
"My illness, it started after I left the village. A year after I was gone I started bleeding and I went to the doctor because Pein made me. The doctor told me my lungs were black like I smoked which I don't." Itachi said.
"The illness is from your guilt huh?" Naruto said as he turned to listen to Itachi.
"It's not guilt," Itachi said getting annoyed.
"Then what is it?" Naruto asked.
"I don't regret it," Itachi said.
"But you feel guilty about something, what is it?" Naruto asked.
"The burden of carrying it around with me I guess," Itachi said.
"You can tell me," Naruto said.
"I will take everything with me to the grave," Itachi said.
"Come on Itachi, we obviously got sent here for a reason and maybe it was to change something," Naruto said.
"What makes you think it has something to do with me?" Itachi asked.
"I don't know I just know it doesn't have anything to do with me. I may not have liked my childhood but I don't think my life was that bad and you obviously were dealt a bad hand." Naruto said.
"What would you do if I told you everything?" Itachi asked looking Naruto in the eyes.
"I would listen," Naruto said.
"Would you tell? Sasuke that is," Itachi said.
"I can't make any promises considering I don't know what you're planning on telling me and he is my best friend," Naruto said.
"Naruto, I need you to keep this a secret or I can't tell you anything," Itachi said looking away.
"Fine I won't say anything," Naruto said.
"Give me your word," Itachi said.
"... I give you my word," Naruto said looking at Itachi in his eyes.
This was going to be a long night and that Naruto knew just from the look in Itachi's eyes.
