Authors Notes: Thank you for all of the reviews!!! (Although 44 people have this on their alert list and I only have like 12 reviews tops for the last chapter.) Anyway I'm soooo sorry about this being so late! I had a lot of stuff to do AND I have exams next week --''' not fun. But after exams I have a week off so I should get another chapter out.
Also some of you were asking about what happened that was so bad in the future I finally thought of one! (Yes I know I started this without having that worked out) and you'll find out sometime between the wave arc and the chunnin exams when Nar- no not telling! Also I finally figured out what I will do about Sasuke with Oro and Hinata's match with Neji. I'm so sad ' I have part of the chunnin exams worked out but I've got no idea about the wave arc TT.TT oh well I pull something out.
Anyway, Onward!
Beta Notes: This is a great chapter. It is also forming out to be a great story. Longest chapter to date. Don't ask me what happens because I have to wait it out just like the lot of you. I just get it a bit earlier and have a slight say in what goes in and out. Once again just spelling and grammar mistakes as usually not that many. She doesn't have spell check or anything so it is not her fault.
"Talking"
'Thinking'
'Kyuubi talking'

Disclaimer: Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto and he's doing a great job! spoilers In the latest chapter it has been confirmed that Kurenai is indeed pregnant with Asuma's(R.I.P) child!!! And if one was to look right Kurenai is wearing a wedding ring! It fit right into my story! End spoilers
Revelance of the Future

Glaring Blushes

They were a few blocks from the academy when Naruto turned back to look at the monument.
'Four heads... It's been a long time since I've seen that... I defiantly have a lot of work to do.'
"Naruto-kun?" He was jolted back to the present slightly. "Is anything the matter?"
He shook his head and gave her the wide foxy grin that he hadn't used for so long before grabbing her hand and dragging her down the road. "Come on Hinata-chan! Let's go see everyone!"
The said girl just giggled helplessly as she was dragged away.
The twenty-two year old chunnin looked around the class room while shuffling papers on hid desk.
Only a few students were already here as it was still quite early, among them were Uchiha Sasuke, the well known human iceberg, iceberg because his ego was so big it could fill the Hokage tower and still have plenty to spare. A few others were Shino from the Aburame clan, Nara Shikamaru, his best friend Akimichi Chouji , and Inuzuka Kiba.
He was about to go back to his papers when he heard some shuffling outside.
"Come on Naruto-kun. Let's get in before everyone else comes."
Hinata nudged him slightly, trying to make him move forward.
'Sasuke's in there. I know it, but but but-' He tilted his head so that his eyes were in shadow. 'I'm not sure if I'm ready to face him yet...'
It was now that the almighty 'sarcasm' demon butted in.
'Baah! If your going to whine like this I'm leaving. Besides-' He yawned. 'I already know what's gonna happen, I'm outta here.'
'What? Kyuubi! Stop!!!'
But he was too late. Luckily though there was no one else apart from him and Hinata to see him suddenly start glowing red. About a second later a small red fox appeared out of no where, gave the blond, if possible, a cocky grin then scampered off down the hall.
"Naruto...? Wha...?"
"Nothing Hinata-chan, he was apparently bored was all. Let's go in."
Thoroughly annoyed now. Naruto forgot all about a certain Uchiha, grabbed Hinata's hand and barged into the classroom.
The door opened and the two preteens walked into the classroom holding hands. Before anything else they looked down the steps to see their teacher from so long ago.
'Wow... Iruka-sensei is actually alive again!' They both thought. It hadn't hit them until just then that they were really in the past. It was a miracle, no more then a miracle for them. It took all of Naruto's self control to not run up to the man and hug him. It was five years since they had seen him last, he had died shortly after Kia was born. And here he was alive and breathing the man Naruto considered a father or older brother figure.
It was at this moment when the two noticed the strange looks they were getting, one of which was from Sasuke himself. Naruto noted this and his eyes narrowed, he was still unsure what he would do about him. The blond actually considered killing him but quickly tossed the idea away, this time he was going to do things right. None of his precious people were going to die.
He raised one of his eyebrows and asked "Huh? What is it teme?"
The Uchiha's eye's flickered down for a second before back around in his seat to brood.
Both Hinata and Naruto looked down to see their hands still intertwined. They immediately lat go, not wanting to arouse too much suspicion on the first day and took seats in the row across from Sasuke and behind Shino.
"Well Hinata-chan... It has begun."
"Yes. But what exactly has begun?" She was slightly confused on that matter. They had yet to discuss their plans.
"Everything, I'll tell you about it later. For now... I'm going to go and see if I can get my best friend back." He winked as he grinned and stood. Hinata smiled and nodded as he went.
(A/N: I had the perfect scene for right here but... I forgot it TT.TT so this one will have to do. B/N Great job. You ruined the story. That could have been what could have gotten us the big times. GOSH. A/N: It's not my fault! Well okay a little...)
Naruto sat down next to the dark haired boy with, if possible, a nervous thump.
"What do you want dobe?" Sasuke wasn't interested but he knew that he wouldn't go away until he said something.
"To... ask you something..." The younger shinobi said this as if he wanted to say it for a long time. "Why… Why do you wish to kill your brother… And by yourself even? Without any help? Without trying to form bonds. To make friends."
To say the very least this question, this query shocked the young avenger to his very core.
'How does he know!? I've never told anyone!'
But the other boy continued in the same low voice. "I have a small piece of advice for you... The man who seeks power and finds it, will always be trumped and surpassed in leaps and bounds by the one who has achieved power, and only used it when there was no other choice."
Now Sasuke was livid. Who was this... this dobe to talk like this!
"How do you know about that...!" His voice was thick and dripping with quiet venom.
Naruto then did something that was completely out of character, (at least to Sasuke) even more so then what was said within the last few minutes, he put on one of those looks when people are dealing with particularly slow children and sighed. "You're kind of obvious you know."
With that he stood up. He left one final statement. "Who hasn't heard of the Uchiha Massacre and what took place that night. Anybody with common sense can put two and two together." With that he left the Uchiha boy fuming (even more so when he shot a grin over his shoulder at him) and once again sat next to Hinata.
"So Naruto-kun wha--"
"HA! SAFE!!!"
She was interrupted by none other then Yamanaka Ino, and Haruno Sakura.
Hinata looked away from the sight of the two bickering girls when she heard Naruto shift (B/N: I laughed at this word. Before it came to me there was absolutely NO 'f') and stand up.
"Nar-" She was interrupted yet again but this time by Naruto who quieted her with a wink and playful grin as he began to walk towards the squabbling girls.
'What on earth is he doing...?'
It had been about five minutes since he had spoken to Sasuke and gotten him piping mad, he decided this might just get him to lose that extra layer of ice he added himself... maybe.
"Hey! Sakura!" He yelled in true hyper activeness that he was known for.
"What do you want Naruto! I don't have time for you right now!" She had to work out a way to beat Ino-pig and get Sasuke to fall madly in love with her! Although... Naruto certainly did look better without his jacket... Aah! Bad thoughts! Bad thoughts! Bad!
Thankfully she was broken out of this train of thought at what Naruto said next: "So you don't want to sit next to Sasuke?"
"What!"
"Okay, Okay! Sasuke said that," He could feel said boy's glare burning into the back of his skull. "That he wanted you to sit next to him!"
"Sasuke-kun?!" And in a daze like trance the pink haired girl left a fuming Ino and wandered over to the seat next to Sasuke and sat down.
Naruto almost forcefully had to keep himself from laughing at everyone's faces especially Ino's and the rest of the rookie genin's that had only recently came in. He gave a wide mischievous grin before going back to his seat.
Seeing this as a good time to intervene Iruka called everyone to attention.
"Class! If you wouldn't mind I would like to begin!"
He smiled to himself as everyone turned to face him. 'They have grown so much...'
"As you know everyone in this room has graduated and passed the genin exams! Congratulations! But now the hard part begins, you will go on missions, protect Konoha, and be put in various situations of danger. A ninja's life is not an easy one and I wish you all the best of luck." The chunnin sensei paused for a second to look at the young ninja hopefuls before starting once more. "And without further ado I will read out your team placements."
Everyone seemed to sit straighter at his words.
"Team one..."
Naruto and Hinata talked quietly until they heard...
"Team seven - Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura and..." He let the tension build up slightly before, "Uchiha Sasuke."
There was a chorus of groans and moans and one squeal of delight (Sakura's). 'CHA! Beat that Ino-pig!'
"Okay. Now everyone settle down... Team eight - Inuzuka Kiba, Hyuuga Hinata and Aburame Shino. Team nine..."
Hinata turned and waved to her teammates. Naruto could see the slight shimmering and remembrance of happy times in her eyes when she turned back around.
"And Finally team ten - Akimichi Chouji, Nara Shikamaru and Yamanaka Ino. That is the last of the teams, your sensei's will be here shortly and once again I wish you good luck."
With that Iruka gave one final smile before heading through the door.
Sensei's came and went, Hinata's shortly after Iruka had left. (Naruto gave her a kiss on the cheek when she went, drawing many strange stares and three shades of red on Hinata's part) Now the only team left (again) was team seven. And Naruto being Naruto started doing something rather... odd. It was a form of chakra control really. He had discovered it one day when he was bored. You just channeled your chakra out into a thick string and changed its composition slightly so you could see it. Currently he was making the string chakra do figure 8's around his hands.
"What are you doing?"
Startled, he dissimilated the chakra and looked up to see Sakura staring at him or rather his hands.
"Oh, you mean this?" He started the chakra back up for an example.
She nodded in fascination.
"It's a form of chakra control. Basically a chakra light show. If you get good you can make it bigger and change the color too." He accentuated this by making a miniature northern light's above their heads. "I can show you how if you want."
"Okay..."
He spent about the next fifteen minutes teaching her.
"Okay hold your hands about six inches apart give or take."
As Sakura did this he nodded. "Great, now channel chakra between your hands." Sensing the slight fluctuations in her chakra he gave another nod. "Good, try to imagine the chakra visible, flowing down your arms and changing. At first the color will be blue, that is the natural color of chakra for humans. Usually it takes a lot of power for it to be visible but this is a way around it..."
After a few minutes of concentration Sakura finally called out. "I got it!"
Naruto looked over, it was weak and wispy but defiantly there.
"Excellent, now try to make it stronger and brighter?"
As she was doing that, the blond went over to the Uchiha. "Do you want to know how to do it too?"
The dark haired boy snorted obviously thinking it was a waste of time. "Why? It's a useless technique, it doesn't do anything." He apparently wasn't listening to Naruto's previous explanation.
He once again put on the face resembling what one would adorn while talking to a small child. "No. Actually, it increases chakra control and chakra stores, therefore helping you increase the amount that you can use."
Sasuke was still furious at him about what the idiot did earlier but he had to become stronger. Even if it was coming from the dobe. "Heh, fine..."
And that is how the future Rokudaime ended up teaching his teammates how to essentially make pretty colored chakra.
After about half an hour of practicing Sakura asked. "Where did you learn this Naruto?"
Sasuke glanced over trying not to look interested, but still listening.
Naruto wasn't sure if he should tell her the answer but did anyway. These were his friends right? In the future perhaps, but still his friends. "Ummm... Actually I discovered it one day when I was bored. It's cool to look at after all and it's training too, so all the better." 'Not to mention the fact that Kia always loved it when I put on a show for her..."
"Heh yeah right dobe."
"It's true! Even ask Hinata! She was the first one I showed!"
It was now that Sakura perked up again. "What is going on between you and Hinata? Everyone saw you kiss her on the cheek you know..."
"Well uh, um..." He became flustered and red at this point. "J-j-j-just practice the thing you were doing!"
The blond shinobi then spun on his heels and stomped to the front of the room and started playing out pictures of chakra on the wall, starting with a figure banging his head on a tree to strangling a figure that looked strikingly similar to Sasuke.
Two hours later this was how he found them. The pink haired girl had her head resting on her arms, exhausted. The Uchiha was staring at his hands that had wisps of blue appearing here and there with a scowl on his face. The blond was doing the most perplexing thing. He was making strange pictures on the wall, one humanoid figure looked vaguely like the blond the other like himself.
'What is going on here... and why is the pink one so tired...'
The blond now identified as Naruto from his file, was the first to notice him.
"Hey Kakashi-sensei!" He bounded up and over to him while the other two's heads jerked up at the out burst to look at him.
'How does he know my name?'
As the others were looking at him he said the first words since entering the room.
"My first impression... You're strange... Meet me on the roof in five minutes."
With that the silver haired ninja disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Naruto meanwhile had a small smirk on his face as he thought 'Same old Kakashi-sensei, he has no idea of how glad I am to see him and his weird perverted ways. At least this time he didn't say that he hated us.' and "Last one up is the Hokage's nose picker!" Before dashing out the door to find the stairs to the roof.
"Nose picker?" Sakura murmured as Sasuke shook his head dreading the thought of staying on the same team before following the boy to the roof.
Four minutes later they were all on the roof with Kakashi in front of them.
"Well now that we're all here, how about we start with introductions? Likes, dislikes, hobbies, dreams for the future?"
Sakura raised her hand. "Sensei how about you go first so we know what to do?"
"Fine. My name is Hatake Kakashi. I have no need to tell you my likes or dislikes. I have many hobbies. As for dreams for the future... well maybe if your lucky you'll learn that one day." He quickly cut off his short monologue. "Blondie you start."
'All we really found out was his name...'
It was then that the time traveling shinobi started talking. "Name's Uzumaki Naruto. I like training, Hinata-chan-" Sakura snickered slightly while Naruto pouted at her. "I also like ramen and anyone else who is part of my precious people. I dislike people who judge others before they get to know them as well as traitors. My hobbies are spending time with my friends. My dreams for the future are to become the greatest Hokage this village has ever seen, protect my precious people, help a certain someone deal with a certain something and to deal with a certain person before they can do a certain something..." 'Before he kills them again...' He inhaled due to the fact he had said that all in about one breath.
There was one thing on all of their minds, 'Okay that was weird... and confusing.'
"Okay... Pinky your next."
'Pinky? Who does he think he is? Getting off at calling me pinky!' Inner Sakura roared while on the outside she remained calm but slightly aggravated.
"My name is Haruno Sakura, I like..." She glanced at Sasuke and did a classic fangirl giggle and blush, "My hobby is..." Giggle and another blush. "My dream for the future is..." A louder giggle and a darker blush blush but this time combined with a squeal. Then she stopped all together and adorned a slight scowl, "And I hate Ino-pig!"
'Great…' "You Mr. Brooder. Next."
Sasuke's eyes shifted to Kakashi as he started. "My name's Uchiha Sasuke. I don't particularly like anything, I dislike a lot of things. My dream... no aspiration is to kill a certain man and to restore my clan."
'Sasuke-kun is sooooo cool!'
Naruto snickered silently at this, 'You better hold true to that last one this time Sasuke.'
Kakashi sighed as he contemplated his team. 'Great just great. No, it's fan FREAKING tastic. a brooding avenger, and a fan girl in love with the idea of falling in love. at least one seems to have his head screwed on right. And from the one from the least likely of places too, considering his past...'
"Okay guy's, Sakura. Meet me at six a.m. tomorrow at training ground number three dash seven (B/N I know everybody says seven so no… it's THREE this story is original! A/N:Fine. 3 -7 evil grin.) for your survival test."
Sakura once again spoke up. "But sensei, we already took our test."
"That's what you think, that test was only to separate the total idiots from the ones with at least some hope. But this one is the real deal, if you fail you get sent back into the academy, and it has a sixty-six percent failure rate. So be ready. Dismissed."
He watched their faces as they slowly started realizing that they were dismissed. Sakura's face was of shock, Sasuke's didn't reveal anything but grim annoyance, and Naruto, well it was a mixture of determination and thoughtfulness.
As they began to stand up he added. "Oh and don't eat, you'll throw up." Without another second the copy nin disappeared.
'Damn pervert... I hoped he would have forgotten that.'
A/N: Heh heh 'sweatdrop' well what did you think? Even if it was... well you know. It was a pain in the ass for sure. For me at least. Letta did a great job editing! This would suck if not for him! Anyway I was wondering if you checked my profile you would see that I have this idea for making a slight partner-ish story. This would be dealing with things that happened before the time reversal and you guys could vote or something well give me idea's for it. Right now with that Kyuubi part I have a great idea for him with Kia coughsleepcough It'll be cute that one anyway. Also you could say How did this person die or whatever. Anyway you guys vote if you want it! It'll be called Remenants of a Past Life. I do like words with 'R's don't I?? Well see ya!
B/N: See! It was good! Even if it was only a slight info chapter. It was still quite interesting. I guess I have to go write my story now……. Bye bye for now!
