Silence.

The lonely embrace of nothingness.

Nothing but Silence filled the void around Naruto. there was no Grumbling of a large, Furry fox to comfort him. No laughter to sooth his lonely heart.

No Noise. Not even the slightest breeze. It was all quiet...To quiet. Then the pain struck, Emanating around his body as he Started to yell in agony, The feeling, as if it was lasting minutes on end, but as it came, it ended.

After the pain ended, The silence disappeared. The Feeling, nulled, and the Darkness, turning to light. The ringing began, before it all Faded..

He jumped up, Breathing heavily as he started to pant. The Sweat, dropping from his forehead as he looked down at hands. Them now moving to his body as he gently felt his body. Noticing instantly, This wasn't him. He shakily lifted his...the hands, as they just...looked..Younger.

Pure.

He was....lost, at first. He didn't quite remember what had happened but....

He smiled. Tears started streaming from his face as he started to laugh.

The Damn Fox actually did it. He...

His eyes widened at what the Fox said before he left.

"Naruto, you must save the future yourself. I'm not going to exist in the future...you need to console with the past me and release the seal, while yelling my name. Don't tell anyone your from the future...please, be safe...Naruto change the future..."

He wiped the tears as he cursed himself. "Damn it, Kurama-"

He turned around as he sat down. "Please be there buddy..."

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His nerves where going into over drive. The Fox, although annoying was still his friend.

After opening his eyes one more time, he closed them.

The boy, Entering the familiarity of darkness.


He groaned as he sat up. The familiar Sewer around him making the boy sigh in relief.

He looked around as he walked forward. The blond taking in the familiar walls as he made his way to the main chamber.

While walking through the hallway, he found himself in the main chamber. The doors...Sealed. Figured, he did go back in...wait...

"Am I..."

His eyes widened as he heard a Low grumbling, before crimson eyes met Sky blue.

"You...I didn't expect for you to come here...so might I ask if you could Come closer..SO I CAN RIP YOU TO SHREDS!"

The Roar of the Kyuubi caused the water and Naruto himself to be pushed back, however he stopped himself. The Fox instantly stopped as he looked at the boy...but, only for a brief second. Something felt off...

"Heh, your like how you've always been, haven't you been."

"Tsk, what's that supposed to mean Boy." The Fox stared at his container. An angry scowl on his face.

"Well...I think it's time we introduce ourselves. I'm not gonna have a rerun of when I was younger, Kurama. My Name is Naruto Uzumaki. And I..."

The boy took his shirt off before removing the undershirt as he put his hand out.

"Wait, hold on you said my na-"

His hand changed into a claw, as he slammed his hand onto his stomach. Him smirking as he spun the seal. The gate seal of the Fox ripping itself off, and the Fox being released from the prison.
