Sorry for the long pause guys. I'm moving soon and I've been having a spike in my depression. I decided, since I couldn't sleep tonight that I'd update the story. Thanks you all for ready and even reviewing.

Sadly the chapter isn't that long compared to others but it was an awkward episode of yelling, falling, more yelling and Jiraiya being a pervert so I did what I could.

Thanks for your patience

~Nightfire~

"What!" Most exclaimed.

"He's going to die!" Chocho said.

The blonde started falling into the ravine full of of stone, jutting out of both sides like dull spikes.

"How did he get out of this?" Mirai asked. "And what the hell is Master Jiraiya thinking?"

Naruto was falling fast. The memory followed him. They watched as the blonde focused chakra to his hands and feet. He tried grabbing onto a spike that was jutting out more than the others. His hand slipped. Things were looking very grim fo the falling blonde. They watched as he fell. His face portraying pure fear as the darkness of the abyss came closer. The whoosh of the air around then suddenly went silent. A weird thumping sound could be heard.

'I'm going to die!" they hear Naruto's thoughts.

The weird thumping sound continued with Naruto's thoughts repeating 'Die!' over and over again.

"I can't watch!" Metal Lee shouted covering his eyes in suspense.

The eight could do nothing but watch, listening to the word 'Die' being repeated in the mind of the 12 year old blonde.

Everything was stopped. There was no sound, no thought, even the fear on Naruto's face had vanished.

"What happened?" Sarada asked.

As if to answer here, there was a flash of light, making the eight shield their eyes. Suddenly they weren't falling in a bottomless ravine but standing in a sewer.

"What?" Mirai asked. "How'd he get here?"

Naruto was on his limbs, like he had stumbled. He stood up and looked dazed.

"Is he okay?" Chocho asked.

"I don't know…" Shikadai answered.

Naruto turned around, as if he heard something. The others listened, they heard a growl but couldn't tell if it was from a breeze passing through or from an animal.

"Where is he going?" Boruto asked.

His father had started walking.

The blond didn't bother looking down any corridor for an exit, he passed about five before he finally turned down one.

"How does he know where he's going?" Mitsuki asked.

They watched as the blond moved turned a blinding white light at the end of the tunnel.

"Oh no! Did he die?" Chocho asked when she saw the light.

"Of course not!" Sarada argued. "He became Hokage so that means he lives!"

"It's a mindscape." Inojin suddenly said.

"A what?" Boruto asked.

"A mindscape." Inojin repeated. "A plane of subconscious unique to each person. It explain how he got here, how he knows where he's going and why he's not freaking out."

"That…. Actually makes sense." Mirai said.

Beyond the bright light was more sewer, except as an open room with a tall ceiling. A gate was built in the opposing wall, decorative but misplaced. Everyone looked at it in awe. At the cent of the gate, where the two doors meet, was a tag with the word 'SEAL' written on it.

"W-What is this?" Metal Lee asked.

Something very, very, very large started glowing orange. The Eight all stumbled backwards at the sight of a massive maw. Above it was two, piercing, glowing red eyes.

"Hey, Kid." A deep, massive voice resonated, "Come closer.

The Blond complied.

"Is he stupid!" Shikadai asked. "Why would he walk towards this monster!"

Naruto suddenly jumped back with a shout of shock. Giant claw clanged against the gate, not even making it move an inch.

The red eyes turned from piercing to glaring as the glowing mass of chakra told the Blonde that it wanted to kill him.

"You're… The Nine-tail fox!" Naruto said.

"That's the Nine Tails!" Sarada said. "It's huge!"

"For you to approach me." the demon said, narrowing his eyes. "What business brought you here?"

No one said anything, they watched as Naruto's face changed from scared of what was before him, to glaring in anger at the fox trapped in front of him.

The blonde called the fox out, demanding he pay rent by leaning some of his chakra.

"Your dad's dead." Shikadai said, "Picking a fight with this thing, no way he cane survive."

The results shocked everyone.

The fox laughed and complied, saying that he would die of his young host did as well. Red chakra enveloped the blonde boy.

The were back to falling the next instance. The eight had forgotten this small fact thanks to the demon fox they just witnessed. They watched.

Naruto bit his thumb and performed the hand signs for the summoning jutsu. A giant puff of smoke appeared and suddenly there was a giant toad below them in which Naruto landed on safely.

The toad had stretched it's arms and legs to each side of the ravine to keep itself from falling. It was a dark russet color, wearing a dark, open robe. It had a pipe in it's mouth and studs on its long tongue.

"Where am I?" it asked.

"No way!" Mirai said. "He actually did a complete summon!"

They looked at the toad in awe as the young blond ran around on top of it, making sure it was a toad.

"It is just me, or does that frog not look happy?" Shikadai asked.

They saw that the frog had narrowed its eyes when it realized that there was someone on him. He yelled at the blonde, introducing himself as Gamabunta. He almost knocked Naruto off, luckily the blond caught himself on the Toad's giant's pipe. The frog keeping yelling, asking where Jiraiya was at, shaking the pipe while Naruto hung on for dear life.

"He seems more mad at Master Jiraiya then Lord Seven." Inojin said.

Gamabunta brought Naruto closer to his face, and asked the blonde where Jiraiya was. Naruto said he didn't know, mainly because he didn't actually remember Jiraiya's name. The Toad tried again, this time calling Jiraiya a 'leecher who calls himself a Toad Sage." Naruto still didn't say anything as he landed on Gamabunta's nose.

"That Toad sure isn't happy with Master Jiraiya." Mitsuki said. "I wonder if he's going to try and kill him?"

Naruto finally answered the toad, saying the sage was at the top of the cliff.

"Hey, can I ask you a question?" Naruto said, gaining the Chief Toad's attention again.

The blonde asked what Gamabunta's business was with the Pervert. The toad said he wanted to know why said pervert summoned him here.

"Ah!" Naruto sounded. "That was me! I Summoned you after I fell of the cliff, I thought you could help me."

The toad narrowed his eye as he inspected the blonde.

"He just said he fell of the cliff like it was an accident, not that Master Jiraiya pushed him off and left him for dead, or anything." Shikadai noted.

The toad started laughing, not believing that Naruto had summoned him. Naruto got mad and started yelling, then all of a sudden he was fighting with the toad.

"Can your dad not go a day without picking a fight?" Sarada asked.

"I have no idea." Boruto said. "But that frog sure is loud!"

The toad suddenly jumped out of the ravine.

The Scene disappeared with Naruto saying he wouldn't fall off the toad's head.

No one said anything. The were taking in the facts from that last memory. How a genin used a summoning jutsu successfully, how they saw the Nine-Tailed Fox, how the Seventh in his younger years where he had no control for his actions challenged it into giving him Chakra.

"I'm amazed at the Seventh's tenacity." Metal Lee broke the silence.

"I must agree." Mitsuki said. "He's very courageous…. Or very stupid."

"My vote's on stupid." Boruto stated.

The blonde was secretly mad that his dad learned the summoning jutsu at his age and he wasn't even close to learning it.

"I'll agree." Sarada said. "But only because he seems to stumbles his way into the messes to begin with."

Everyone agree on that.

And that's a wrap, thanks for reading this very awkward chapter. Soon while be diving into Gaara and all his stuff soon.

In the next chapter: Gaara, Naruto and the Hospitalized Lee!
