    Summary

    The Fourth Hokage's body was never found, but they never suspected that was because he hadn't died.

    Minato Namikaze wakes up six years after the devastating Kyuubi attack, alone in an overgrown clearing with not a scratch on him. Disoriented and confused, he does exactly what any father would do in this situation. He fights through the pain, gets up, and goes to find his son. He trudges through the pounding in his head and forces himself to move-- to go and find him, because that masked man was still out there, and Minato is willing to do anything to protect his little ball of sunshine.

     


    Needless to say, the blonde kage wasn't expecting so much time to have passed. Nor is he very impressed with the way the village has been treating his son all these years.

    Summary

    Itachi wakes up thirteen again, and this time, he refuses to let his clan - or himself - be destroyed.

    The future can still be rewritten. All he needs is careful planning, a lot of luck, and a little help from the people he thought he'd already lost.

    ---

    When Itachi wakes up, the taste of his last words to Sasuke still lingering on his tongue, the sweet Konoha air filling his lungs, he thinks, this must be heaven.

    His second thought is, it cannot possibly be heaven, for if there were truly any justice in the world, he would never be allowed inside.

    "Nii-san!" comes the delighted shout, and a pair of skinny arms are wrapped around his middle, and Itachi is forced to re-evaluate his first theory, because there is no way, absolutely no way, that he deserves heaven and his brother in the same breath.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Itachi had always been the type of person who wanted to shape the world through love, rather than hate. He was a gentle person by nature, a kind one. He believed that if he loved enough, and if he loved correctly, everything could be changed, and for the better.
    His hopes for that were shattered when he was thirteen years old. But he kept loving anyway.
    He loved the village he had failed, the people he had let die, and the people who hated him and were happy to see him dead.
    He loved the little brother who despised him.
    He loved his parents, despite everything.
    And it didn't fix anything, and the world didn't become a better place, and everything that was broken was still broken.
    It was all meaningless.
    But his love, at least, wasn't.

    Summary

    Six years after Minato Namikaze rose from the dead, Naruto's graduated the academy with a field of flowers in his mind and the best friends he could've ever asked for. Everything seems like it's going well... until it's not. Conspiracies within the village are keeping Minato on his toes, and Naruto's goal of world peace only seems to get further and further away from him as the Akatsuki stir and start to raise their heads. There are unknown enemies lurking around every corner, and it's up to Naruto and Kurama to stop them-- and who knows, maybe they'll have a little help when they do.

    (In the distance, the remnants of Uzu call, getting louder and louder each day. Naruto doesn't know what it means for him or for the rest of Team 7, but as the pull gets stronger and stronger, he has a feeling he's going to find out.)

    Or: Six years after the events of six years too long.

    Summary

    Living in the woods after being kicked out of the orphanage, Naruto Uzumaki is faced with a slew of impossible to make choices when he finds a half-dead stranger with no eyes washed up on the bank of the river in front of his makeshift home. Knowing that whoever did this to The Stranger is still out there, and that nobody will believe him if he tries to get help, Naruto rolls up his sleeves and decides he's going to do it himself. Whoever this boy is, Naruto is going to save him. Even if he has to read a book to do it.

    Healing doesn't come easy to someone with as much chakra as Naruto has, but never let it be said that he backs down from a challenge. He's going to do this, and who knows. Maybe he'll unravel one of Konoha's darkest and best kept secrets whilst he does.

    Or: Naruto finds Shisui Uchiha half dead on the bank of a river and learns medical ninjutsu to save him. Now, if only Shisui could remember who hurt him to begin with.

    Summary

    “How’d you manage to swing that with the Hokage?” Obito chuckled, incredulous. The two guards positioned between them cast sidelong glances at each other, but Obito was so shocked by what Kakashi had said that he hadn’t even thought to read into it. Something as simple as seeing the sun again had felt like a pipe dream. Kakashi probably just meant somewhere that he didn’t have to sleep on a cot covered rock, or something, there was no way-

    “Oh, it was easy,” Kakashi said, using his elbow to push himself off the door frame as Obito’s brows furrowed, “Considering I’m Hokage.”

    “All of this,” he continued easily and offered Kakashi a gentle smile, “This last month and a half has been…” Obito sighed, “I haven’t felt this way in a long time. Alive, I mean. I finally feel like I’m someone again.”

    “You were always someone to me,” Kakashi admitted after a second, and he glanced off as the apples of his cheeks grew red. When he spoke again, it was to the stars. “Even if I never told you before. I’m sorry I didn’t. But… I thought of you every day.”
