Hi everyone,
I'm sorry it's taken a long time for anything to come from me but I've lost the inspiration to write and hardly get the time to do it now.
This is the first chance I've had in a while to do anything other than work or sleep.
I hate having to do this but I won't be finishing this story.
The best I can offer is a summary or where I did plan on taking Ash and May.
I hope you'll enjoy this summary and remember my story fondly.
Basic Trainer
Main plan for the story was to stick close to Canon and some filler and movies making small changes that would have a big effect in the future. Gain allies earlier and deprive enemies of resources, etc. Everyone would get more training and a wider skill set as well.
Tsunade and Shizune would be brought into the village before the Chunnin exams start
Tenten, Ino, Sakura and Hinata would get training from them under the guise of going to the hospital for medic training, which they'd get as well
Tsunade gets over blood phobia
Jiraiya would put the guys through the ringer for training
Anko would be herself and prank them outside of training to test situational awareness and reaction times.
Chunnin exam starts
1stexam the same
2ndexam, 12 stick together, nothing in rules say they can't ally with other teams
12 get the scrolls they need on the first day and camp for the night
Orochimaru attacks the next day with Tayuya and Jirobo
12 get separated
Team 8 & 10 vs Jirobo
Ino mind jutsu, Shikamaru holds, Hinata seals chakra points, Shino drains chakra, Kiba and Choji blast him into the forest
Team Guy vs Tayuya
Neji sees through the Genjutsu, tells Lee and Tenten to block ears, force Tayuya to retreat
Team 7 vs Orochimaru
Sasuke gets bitten
Anbu, Anko and Jiraiya turn up forcing Orochimaru to run
Naruto makes a stop gap seal for Sasuke, can't get outside help or disqualified
Get to the tower at the end of the second day
Jiraiya redoes the seal
Rest until exam is over

Kankuro brushes him off but Temari interested when Naruto asks about wind jutsus
Tournament, same match ups due to future vision

Invasion starts at the same time
Tsunade and Shizune revealed as cloaked Anbu guarding Third
Jiraiya and Tsunade summons to fight giant snakes
Third, Tsunade and Jiraiya fight Orochimaru
Shizune wakes people caught by sleep jutsu with Tenten, Ino, Sakura and Hinata then set up triage centre, Tenten and Hinata main guards with Ino and Sakura acting as medics and back up guards
Death seal Orochimaru's arms
Tsunade managed to keep Third alive, barely
Third heavily injured but alive, needs to step down from Kage, in wheelchair, very frail
Orochimaru forced to run
Boys chase down Gaara and Sand nin, slowly leave couple behind to deal with sand nin/ kankuro/temari

Shikamaru and Hinata vs Tayuya
Naruto and Lee vs Kimimaru
Gaara, Kankuro and Temari come as back up
Naruto vs Sasuke at valley of the end
Joint knockout, Naruto pulls the last hit

Kakashi wants to chase but prioritieses Naruto
Training Montage/2 year time skip/Neji Jonin/third dies
Ideas for new jutsu
Shino, insect manifestations? Beetle shell armour, Ant pincers etc
Choji, reversal of expansion jutsu, only partial shrink to half size, becomes denser and stronger hits
Shikamaru, shadow step, connect other shadows and jump between them
Ino, mind swap between others
Kiba, Solo wolf transformation
Hinata, jutsu used with gentle fist, develops weapon forms for gentle fist
Sakura, pain multiplier, chakra manipulates nerves to increase pain felt x10
Tenten, remote weapon control, chakra strings/seals
Neji, mobile attacking form of Kaiten
Lee, Elemental Fist fighting style, seals with elemental chakra added to attacks
Naruto actually gets taught, can safely use 5 tails
Sage training early, waited for body to be strong enough
Return to village
Save Gaara
Interrupt ritual
Gaara still has 1 tail, drained enough to wake up statue
return to Village, Sai appears
reveal that Danzo is the source of future and items
Mangekyo sharingan from dead uchiha allows genjutsu vision of most probable future based of what user knows
Further vision is pushed the more it drains user
leads to eventually blindness and death if over done

other Root used on Naruto cause he's integral to future

vs Kaguya
Six paths
fight
win
Naruto/Sasuke fight
Sasuke won't stay down, eventually dies from Chakra exhaustion (I don't agree with the canon explanation of Sasuke losing his bad guy energy cause he lost an arm)
Only confirmed romance, Arashi and Tenten
