Blossoming Beginnings (Pre-Sasuke Retrieval Arc - Rewrite) by MartialArtsLover7

Summary
A small side project of mine. It is no secret that, even the most loyal of SasuSaku fans have to agree on the disheartening reality that, Sasuke's and Sakura's relationship was poorly handled. Purely relying on sub-context, tape and prayers, that it all works out in the end, and I say: Bullocks to that, we deserved better. Especially Sakura.
And this is what this small series is for: Me writing, the well-needed setup to their developing relationship. Because, Kishimoto's retcons in Shippuden have caused so much irreparable damage to the tonal and moral consistency of his own plot, causing characters like Sasuke to be coming off as "spoiled", as if he has to be "grateful" to even be alive. And I say, what for? Konoha, and the elders have made Sasuke's life a living hell, and you mean to tell me, Sakura -- Someone, SUPPOSEDLY on the same IQ level as Shikamaru -- could never connect the dots on why Sasuke couldn't stay in the village? Bullshit, let's just say how it is.
Hence, this story was birthed. I want to write a theoretical scenario, in which all given promises about Sakura's character are kept, AND her romance with Sasuke receives more meat around the bone.

Kushina VS Hiruzen (Blank Period - Revenge Match) - A Mother's Wrath by MartialArtsLover7
Fandoms: Naruto (Anime & Manga)
21 Jul 2025
Tags
Summary
Let's be real, even if Naruto's story ended up being ruined by retcons, the canon story did not exactly try to convince me otherwise, that Hiruzen himself, was NOT a lying piece of shit, either. Time and time again, this asswipe has sabotaged not only Naruto's life, but plenty more, when you consider that he had never done anything to oppose Danzo's extremist and corrupt methods to "maintain peace", even though, he was clearly, a power-hungry tyrant, all the way to the end. I still don't understand, why Sasuke was made the enemy, when his kill count has always comically miniscule as opposed to that of the elders and the Senjus COMBINED.
And mind you, all this is taking place in an AU version of the Blank Period, where Kushina was temporarily brought back to life by her grandma, for about one year, not only to prevent the revival of the Senju, but to also get the chance in spending quality time with her blond fox cub. To all our mothers out there, we can be grown adults, and they can still view us lovingly as their baby. Yup, I can be wholesome too, couldn't you tell?

Summary
Naruto has always known he was different. From the moment his mind could form conscious thoughts, he knew that he wasn't like everyone else. For, buried within the confines of his mind were memories of a life he hadn't lived. At least not in this lifetime.
Or, a fic in which Harry Potter is reincarnated as Naruto Uzumaki. Getting his full memory back at the age of five, he ventures to learn how to live in a world so different from his own. Neglected, pushed aside and shunned by his own village, he does his best to survive.
With his magic, his chakra and his friends, he vows to become the greatest ninja in order to bring peace to the Shinobi world. -

Summary
[A Naruto Self-Insert as Naruto Uzumaki]
They say you should dig two graves if you want to go looking for revenge... so, it's a good thing I've already died once because the delusional one-eyed fuck that railroaded my life is going six feet under, one way or another.
You see, this is what happens when an ordinary guy is reborn as a not-so-ordinary child and is forced to shoulder the world’s burden for his survival.
Luckily for me, saving the world and revenge are just two sides of the same fucked up coin.

Summary
This is a story that portrays actual feelings and what would happen if you threw a real twelve-year-old kid into a pit of indifference, ignorance, and hatred, expecting them to just accept it and rise above it.
This is about hatred.
When repeatedly put against an illogical situation, while being denied your rationality and your dignity, only one answer remains: Insanity.

Summary
In its purest form, terror was something to behold. Most people went their entire lives feeling only an ounce of the horrifying realization, one that took root in your deepest fears. Terror was a misunderstood emotion. It was the epitome of fear, the multiplier that kicked you in the gut and left scars on who you were.
Naruto had once been one of the naïve people that believed terror was something you could get over with time. But terror was more than that. Naruto learned that at a young age.There was a time when Naruto wore a grin that battled the fierce glares all around her, her eyes lit with unimaginable life. There had been a time when she could look at any situation with optimism. That time vanished along with the innocence of her childhood when her worldview shattered on a fateful snowy night. She grew to only allow very few people into her heart, allowing her to meet the one person who would change everything for her.
Kabuto stood as someone she was fond of, and with him came another. A man who changed her view of the world and her village for years to come. Sasori of the Red Sand became her guiding light, her teacher. He taught her what it meant to be a ninja when the world was against you.

Summary
Naruto froze, panting harshly from another early morning training session. He caught his breath, numbly glancing down at his own dirty, scuffed up palms, clenching them tightly into fists. Blood dripping from the open cuts on his bare knuckles. He watched as the slow droplets hit the grassy floor. He looked up at his handiwork, the dented, blood spattered stump in front of him looking even more worn now than it ever had.
The pale wood morphed in front of him. Now bearing long blond hair that drooped over his face. That infuriatingly self-assured expression on his face. His smile stretching wide…
“Real Ninja, take fate… Into their own hands.”
Naruto shuddered, breathing out a long, tired breath of cold vapor.
He felt the dull ache in his fists fade away, the only pain remaining being the long, jagged scars that decorated the majority of his upper body. Even now, they still emanated heat, the pain still as sharp as the memories were in his mind.
Naruto growled and punched again, sending chips of old bark and droplets of blood flying from the stump. A familiar fire throbbing in his chest…
If others saw nothing wrong with taking fate in their hands, at his own expense, why shouldn’t he.
