Summary: Naruto Uzumaki, the 7th Hokage of Konoha, Jinchūriki of Kurama, hero of the elemental nations, and good friend from many, died from a mysterious illness. Never in his imagination would he have thought to open his eyes inside the body of someone who looked exactly like himself when he was around 18 years old. "Now that's unexpected."
"Speech."

Naruto looked at the horizon, smiling. It was always a truly beautiful sight. The sunset always triggers certain emotions inside someone. No one could explain why, but it felt good to see it. It wasn't long since he sat on this bench with the woman who visited him right after he woke up in the hospital more than three months ago.
He hadn't taken a better look at the woman who sat beside him yet. He let his gaze wander to his right, where the mysterious woman sat. When he saw her appearance for the first time, his eyebrows rose for a second out of confusion.
He didn't know why, but he thought he had seen this woman somewhere before. This woman looked almost like someone from his past life… just not as male but as female. "Would you enlighten me with your name?" asked Naruto carefree. He wasn't worried that this fallen angel would attack him. Her emotions were more than obvious.
"Satsuki Himejima."
"Hmm… doesn't ring a bell…" said Naruto with a thoughtful look. 'Satsuki, huh?' thought Naruto. It wasn't like he never thought about this possibility, but seeing most likely a female version of Sasuke before him was certainly a new experience.
Her facial expression certainly had some things in common with Sasuke. She also had a serious and focused expression on her face. She had the ghost of a smile on her lips right now, something Sasuke used to do. He wasn't someone who showed many emotions with his face, more with his actions.
Satsuki was a beautiful young woman with long, raven black hair tied up into a high ponytail with two long bangs framing her face. She wore dark blue pants, black boots, and a grey top with a black leather jacket over it. She also had onyx eyes.
It was just confusing that Satsuki's last name wasn't Uchiha. He thought that if others from his past life also existed in this world, then they would also have the same name and so forth. After all, there was a Naruto Uzumaki in this world who looked exactly like him and also had chakra.
That was the next thing that confused Naruto. If Satsuki Himejima really was a female Sasuke… then why was she a fallen angel with holy energy? He thought Satsuki would have chakra as well, but this wasn't the case.
"You have much to learn, Naruto. Even if you lost your memories, we need your assistance. For that, you will need to learn how to fight once more," said Satsuki with a serious voice. Satsuki saw how Naruto's carefree gaze vanished and was replaced with a neutral one. She saw that she had his full attention.
"There are things you don't know yet. Me and my comrades accomplished to hide you from the rest of the people who are after your life because of your actions before you fell into a coma," said Satsuki. "I can guess you have already noticed that something isn't normal with your body and the people around you. You can feel a weird energy even in me that you can't figure out."
"Sorry when I interrupt, but when you mean that you are a fallen angel and, in general, the supernatural world, I am informed about everything when it comes to this topic," said Naruto, like this wasn't a big deal.
Satsuki's eyes widened for a second before she calmed down. "Care to explain?" asked Satsuki.
"A month after I woke up, I discovered that I have a Sacred Gear," said Naruto. He shrugged and said, "My Sacred Gear told me everything about devils, fallen angels, heroes, gods, and so forth. I know of the existence of the supernatural world thanks to my Sacred Gear."
Satsuki looked at Naruto's face and couldn't detect any sign that he was lying. Naruto said, "Wait a second." He concentrated, and out of nowhere appeared a seal under his shoe. It spread a little before a barrier rose around the bench where both were sitting.
Satsuki had wide eyes when she saw how Naruto created a barrier out of nowhere without the usage of magic. She had never seen how Naruto used a barrier before and the way he created it… It looked just like the sealing method Naruto had shown her through a book he had discovered. He couldn't read anything inside the book since it was in an old language, but it was clear that this book was about sealing.
She saw it with her two eyes… Naruto had created this barrier with the help of a seal and not with magic or anything else. "What? How did you do this?" asked Satsuki, shocked. If someone would see Satsuki's face… they would be shocked as well. Satsuki was known as the Ice Queen since she was cold to everyone except to her family. She never showed much emotion. She was never someone who would react to her emotions if it wasn't about her family.
Seeing her shocked face and all those emotions she displayed was truly a rare sight to behold.
"Hmm, this?" asked Naruto, pointing at the barrier around them with his thump. "I created the barrier with a seal. Believe it or not, but when I woke up from my coma, I suddenly knew how to use the sealing technique," said Naruto with a chuckle.
Satsuki calmed down when she saw him chuckling at the ridiculous answer he gave her. It was like he was mocking her in a way, but otherwise, he admitted how stupid this sounded. Satsuki also knew some form of sealing magic, but it was nothing compared to the real and rare sealing technique of the Uzumaki family.
"Sorry," said Naruto when he stopped his chuckling. He raised his right hand and summoned his Sacred Gear. A chinese Jian Sword appeared in his right hand. "I just wanted to show you that I wasn't lying when it came to my Sacred Gear and that I know everything about the supernatural world from him."
"It is true," said Silent Shadow when a blue aura pulsated around it. "It is an honor to meet Draig's partner, Satsuki Himejima. My name is Silent Shadow, and I am Naruto's current partner."
Satsuki's body twitched when she heard Naruto's partner casually mention what she was. Almost no one knew that she was the red dragon empress… that she had one of the two heavenly dragons as a partner since she was a little child.
Her gaze became cold when she said, "I hope you don't tell anybody who my partner is. I would like to keep this information to myself."
"Of course, I didn't want to anger you. I am deeply sorry," said Silent Shadow. Naruto looked at his partner before letting his gaze wander to Satsuki. 'I guess this so-called Draig is also a Sacred Gear like Silent Shadow… but I better don't question her about this detail. It looks like she wants to keep this information for herself.'
Silent Shadow disappeared in a blue light and shortly after broke the barrier around the two. "So… now that you know that I know about everything, is everything done for today?" asked Naruto. He knew that this was more or less only an introduction and nothing more. Even when Satsuki knew the old Naruto, he didn't know her.
Satsuki closed her eyes and stood up. She opened them again when she looked at Naruto. "More or less. Since you already know everything about the supernatural world, I don't need to explain everything. This was the main priority why I came today," said Satsuki. "We will discuss everything else another day." She took a few steps back before six pitch-black feather wings appeared from her back in an instant. Naruto whistled a little and said, "I am kind of jealous. Being able to fly must be an amazing ability."
Satsuki smirked a little and said, "It certainly is." She slowly began to rise into the air. "We will see each other again very soon. Until then, Naruto." She turned in the air away from Naruto and darted away at a speed where Naruto almost couldn't see her.
Naruto had to shield his eyes because of the wind that blew through the park for a second when Satsuki took off at high speed. 'So this is the speed of a fallen angel with six wings… impressive. Right now, I wouldn't stand a chance against her. Not even in the slightest. I really need to become much stronger,' thought Naruto.
"That is true. But don't worry, you have time to train. Thanks to your seals on your body, the devils in the Kuoh Academy can't feel either your chakra or my energy. As long as you don't get involved with them in the first place, you should be able to train in secret long enough until you are strong enough to beat most opponents," said Silent Shadow in Naruto's mind.
Naruto chuckled and stood up. 'Let's see where this goes,' thought Naruto. He began to walk home to cook himself something and to think about how he would deal with tomorrow. He didn't really want to go to school, but he didn't really have a choice right now. He would find a way to drop out of school without drawing too much attention. Maybe even switching the city to a more calm and quiet village somewhere in the province. There were enough in Japan.
He smiled and couldn't wait for what would happen in the future. Everything was possible in this world full of supernatural living beings with unknown abilities. Gods, dragons… he might even be able to find others from his past life besides Satsuki so far.
He wasn't sure if Satsuki really was a female Sasuke, but it wasn't so important right now. He got the same vibes from her, and he already had some chemistry with her that he also had with Sasuke back in Konoha. It would be nice to have her as a friend and comrade in the future.
